+0,2,Not what I expected,"Great book - but beware that this is the mini version. It plainly says that, but I didn't notice until I got the tiny book in the mail!"
+1,2,Listening to this soundtrack is a journey like no other,"Ok, so I'm plagiarizing the Venice Simplon Orient Express slogan but it's true! Such a rich and lush set of music! So evocative and inspiring. Even though I know I'll never be able to afford the real Orient Express, I can at least listen to this CD and go on that legendary trip in my mind whenever I wish."
+2,2,Best lube ever!,"This lube is great for any purpose. My wife and I love it. What makes it perfect is it isn't sticky at all, in fact you could kind of compare it to lotion in the fact that it kind of just disopears on its own over time. It isn't a sticky mess like other lubes. But it is still very slippery and lasts a long time."
+3,2,I would highly recommend this product. My face ...,"I would highly recommend this product. My face is very oily and I'm prone to acne if I don't wash it daily. I used this product for several days, and my face felt fresh and clean each morning. It didn't feel dry or chapped, and the product didn't cause me to break out. I recommend this to anyone with an oily face."
+4,2,Keeps them busy!,"I bought a dozen of these for the goody bags for my daughter's fourth birthday party where Cinderella was the guest of honor. I also keep a couple in my bag (Cinderella, Cara the Cowgirl, others from the same series) for an instant fix for bored kids! They love them."
+5,1,Don't even accept one for free as a gift--(0 stars),"functionality of device itself is good but the software you HAVE to use is terrible. Why can't it just be drag and drop through windohs explorer? I just don't understand proprietary third party software. I bought a Sony cd mp3 player a couple years ago, installed the software and almost immediately uninstalled it because it was so bad and just made mp3 cds with whatever burning software I had--couldn't have been happier that way. In my experience Sony software is far less than functional and is to be avoided and here you are not given the option to not use it unless you just want to use you player as an expensive 1G storage drive. That alone makes it not worth buying. Stick with players that are open source. As for the authorization thing to get files off the player? I wish there was an option here to give less than one star on the review. Player sounded good though and didn't have cosmetic problems some note before I returned it."
+6,1,"Where is ""Bring on the Men""?","The two best songs in Jekyll & Hyde were ""Bring on the Men"" and ""Letting Go"". Why are they missing from this disk?"
+7,2,Great Primer,"The Economist described the book this way and I agree completely, ""If you want to catch up on some of the best articles written about globalisation since the topic became fashionable several years ago, this reader is the place to start."""
+8,1,Keep Looking,"I bought this camera based on several reviews most notably Consumer Reports.Size good. Battery life good. 5 megapixels very good. My experience using the camera not good--too much red eye, weak zoom and not durable. My camera quit working after just 3 months. It jammed in the open position. It was not wet or exposed to sand. However, all of those things can void the warranty."

+10,1,"Beautifully shot, inadequately scripted and acted","I so wanted to enjoy this movie. A classic Tolstoy novel and a beautiful, enchanting Marceau in the title role. Much as I tried, however, the same thought ""Who cares"" rang home with me throughout the movie. I am committed to read the book now, in hopes of redeeming my perceptions of Tolstoy's greatness.Can anyone tell me how I'm to connect the initial scene with Molina caught between a pack of wolves and a bear, with the rest of the movie? Is it prologue? Epilogue? Metaphor? I am at a total loss. Perhaps Tolstoy's novel will enlighten me..."
+11,1,"Not New, caliper was rebuilt but sold as a NEW item","The description lists this as being NEW, not rebuilt. The item that was sent to me was REMANUFACTURED, and not NEW.Me copy of the order clearly lists the item as NEW. Pretty disappointing from Amazon Prime."
+12,2,easy to install,"I replaced all six of my home's older FireX units with this detector. Because the prior units were pre-wired and already linked, I purchased the quick connect adapter and swapped everything out in less than 1 hour. My advice is to wear ear protection when you are installing these as they give a short alarm when you activate the battery and when you hook into the electrical system. The units tested perfectly and all of them alarm when one is activated. No problems after one week of being up and running."
+13,2,Just what I thought it would be!,"My 3 year old wanted a popcorn machine for Christmas. He loves the old fashion look of the big expensive ones he has seen in department stores. Being he is only 3, I figured that this one was just the right size to fit on my counter top. I also liked that it is an air popper. He LOVES it!!! It pops just enough for him with a little left for me and Hubby to snack on. It doesn't pop all the seeds, but I had read other reviews about it and knew it would do this. Not a big deal. It pops most of them. Only about a quarter of them don't pop. They do fall out though. I just put a really big bowl under it to catch the popcorn and seeds that are pushed out.I couldn't be happier. I don't recommend this for someone who wants a lot of popcorn at one time though. It pops less than a bag of microwave popcorn and has to cool before you can pop more. It works for us. We wanted it for the look and the price. It is easy to clean and store. The top comes completely off for storage."
+14,1,"A long read, little substance","Hauser invokes Noam Chomsky's language facility as his model for a ""moral organ."" I found his arguments to be very, very little more than a few simple assertions for the existence of this organ as a component of the human brain. More importantly, Hauser failed to follow Chomsky's argument for the relationship of ""human nature"" to moral judgements. Much of this text mimics the very vague ""Natural law"" arguments."
+15,1,The Un-Popular Book,"Hey, when I first saw this book in the store, I thought it looked cool cause I usually look for books with black people on the cover and it had an interesting plot. Then, I read the reviews for this story, and they said the book was bad, but I didn't believe it. Now, I do. This book was horrible. The beginning was long and boring, the ending was short and chopped out, and I got lost in between. There were a lot of questions left unanswered...the Big Think issue..the school play..I mean, I don't even know for sure if these people hooked up in the end! Whatever you do, don't buy this book. This was the worst Love Stories I've ever read. If you wanna read a good one, read Snag Him! or Jake and Christy."
+16,2,PUT IT IN YOUR CART NOW.,"I am probably on my third or fourth time through Covey's book, and each time through I make another connection. He not only has very important things to say, he also says them all very well. His models are easy to conceptualize and can make a lasting impact on your life if you are willing to make a few changes. I honestly wish I could be better at following Covey's map. When I do, I am very happy! My prediction: If you buy this book and are serious about improving your life, relationships, work, family, etc, you will read this book many times. Definitely a bargain."
+17,1,"Good, but flawed","The novel held my interest, although it was wordy and derivative. It repeats an egregious error;The claim that a Lithuanian would have attacked Rembrandt's Danae in Leningrad because of religious zealotry is ridiculous--and ignorant.The date the book gives for the attack is June 15, 1985. The man himself said it was ""out of nationalist protest"" (160).Indeed, June 15th is the day of the first greatest mass deportations of Lithuanians, by Soviets, to Siberia in 1941, a day of mourning (and resistance to oppression) for all Lithuanians to this day.The date is key; the rest, including repeating the theory of zealotry, is ignorant. The man was protesting the cruelty of the USSR by attacking a ""national treasure""; he wouldn't, of course, have slashed religious art."
+18,1,If you want to learn Prince2 buy something else,"This is a lon.o.o.ng heavy going, turgid textbook of the sort that used to exist before authors and trainers got wise to the needs of students.It starts by trumpeting the virtues of Prince2as if they were unique to that system. It moves on to the subjects or processess without any real overview or prioritisation. In fact the book is written very like a software manual. Each chapter apparently unrelated to the others and there is an odd use of langauge throughout.In fact if I was trying to make a subject difficult to understand I could not be much better than this."
+19,1,Cliche ridden hollywood...,"... Take every hollywood cliche, add a bunch of""actors"" whose idea of acting is to look up at the ceilingwith tears in their eyes, throw in an overbearing score (no matter how much sad music they pumped in I felt nothing for these one dimensional characters) and you have a complete disaster that is The Green Mile. Darabont tries so hard to get emotional responses by hammering the viewer over the head. Frank try some subtlety next time PLEASE. That this film was nominated for an Oscar shows what a joke American film has become. Check out The Iron Giant instead that silly ol' giant will bring tears to your eyes!"
+20,1,"Not great, but the few other options...","I like velcro straps on my digital watches. If you want to put a velcro strap on a Suunto Vector, this is pretty much your only option. But not a great one... The band is too short, making it impossible to wear over a long sleeve shirt as I like to do when skiing or motorcycling. Also, it difficult and cumbersome to thread the end through the loop, which you have to do every time you put the watch on. Finally, the amount of velcro used is small, so it wears out quickly and doesn't offer a very firm grip."
+21,2,Why you must read it..,"There is more substance in a single paragraph of this book than in ten thousand pages of Grisham or King. Reading this book will change how you think about America, fame, blondes, books, sex and popular culture. Every sentence is to be relished."
+22,2,Adorable Shelves,I ordered 2 of these shelves for my new son's sports themed bedroom. The shelves are really cute and very well made. They were easy to assemble and hang. I would highly recommend them. They look GREAT on my son's wall.
+23,1,decent,"I was not please with this dic-thes. at all. I needed this device for college and was quick to discover there are several words it did not contain in its ""extensive"" memory. I also recommend you guys to get a dictionary-thesaurus' with larger buttons. I didn't realize just how small the buttons are, and I'm a girl. I can just imagine a boy trying to type in a word in this thing. The ones with bigger buttons are not but one inch bigger than this one, so the claims of this being ""compact"" and perfect for school is unnecessary. This is not one to buy..."
+24,1,Second rate and too subdued.,"I, like another reviewer, find myself bored with this CD after only a few listens. It seems like one of those ""let's toss together a CD real quick"" projects, with a bunch songs that likely didn't make the cut on Recreation Day. Sometimes it's just better to wait a extra year or two to allow for a more quality product to take form."
+25,2,The book is a great help in getting ideas protected.,Descriptions of what can be protected and the mechanisms for filing the proper documents is a great help. The book gives lots of examples and is clearly written for anyone wishing to protect their ideas.
+26,2,Nice camera case and genuine Canon battery.,"I need a case and maybe a second battery, so I got this Accessory Kit 2. Nice soft leather case(fasten with velcro and belt insert on the back of the case), genuine Canon battery(for my Canon SD110), and I'd say neckstrap as a bonus item since I'm probably not going to it use anyway."
+27,1,Translation can spoil the book.,"Having read the Constance Garnet translation three times, I looked forward to a new version. The experience has been disappointing. The translation is awkward at best, without style, and jarring in spots. After spending a month on 125 pages, I gave up and went back to Constance, with relief. I can stand the ""whilst's"" if the writing flows."
+28,2,Poetry on every page.,"As in her first novel, Falling Through Darkness, MacCullough has crafted a beautiful novel with prose that sings. Her characters are vivid, the dialogue pitch perfect, the situation very real, and the resolution hopeful but realistic. All in all this is a terrific read from a very talented writer. I look forward to her other books."
+29,2,Students love this book!,"My 6th grade math-hating students, the students who struggle with math and have little number sense, love hearing this book while drawing reflections and using calculators to crunch the numbers. They are starting to look at numbers in a new way."
+30,2,Quilts from the Heart,"some great quilt patterns that are easy to do, great for charity quilts and more interesting to make than just blocks. good way to use up scraps"
+31,1,Junky product and service,"I bought this TV in Fall 2003. The DVD drawer never opened. After driving many miles to the nearest authorized service station, I waited TWO MONTHS while they searched for the right parts. Now it's February, I've returned the original product to Toshiba, and continue to wait for its replacement to be shipped to me. At every contact with customer service, I've met with sullen and unhelpful people. They do not stand behind their product. I hugely regret buying from this manufacturer and will never again buy from Toshiba."
+32,2,good if you like Treasure Planet stuff,"I love Treasure Planet sooo much I just had to buy this soundtrack.If you like Treasure Planet,you should do the same."
+33,1,OLD and Terrible,"Put it this way HORRIBLE..The start of URIAH HEEP...Love Uriah Heep,,but sadly dissappointed.."
+34,2,An extremely enlightening true afterlife encounter,Dr. Weiss and his altruistic writings of his experiences with people and the spritual world really makes one reconsider the possibility that we are souls within a 'house'. That reincarnation of souls is an actual universal event that occurs to expand and improve ourselves. Any of his books are enlightening.
+35,1,Not The Best,"I bought this thick book (over 1000 pages) for $90AU and expected that by the time I finish reading it I would know Javascript from Start to Finish with no hinderences. I think this book would be very good for people that already know Javascript moderately because its reference is very extensice and good, but for teaching the language I don't think it qualifies as a good read. It is not layed out very well for newbies, and what about errors, even though there is a webpage at www.dannyg.com to download and read, it is very annoying to have to look at the error sheet to see if the example given doesn't have any errors to confuse the situation any more. For $90 I don't think it is the best Javascript book available on the market."
+36,1,Origional vs Rewrite,"I have the great luck to have a copy of this book's first edition, 1947. It went through a major editing in 1970 by the Editors of Mother Earth News. It was edited again, very badly by the editors of Gardenway 1973. The original is very definitely a book, all 326 pages with index. A second edition came out in 1948/9 that added a reference for further reading at the end of each chapter. Most of these pamphlets and books referred to here were were printed by the Country Bookstore which latter became Gardenway and then Storey. Look for the original hardback ca 1947 or 1948 for the second edition. You will have much more satisfaction. There are so many places that ham handed editing have made this book a man's only book. It spends most of its time out side and leaves the kitchen/harvest room to be worked out by the wife and an architect. Giving you no idea what is needed in the way of space, layout or basic equipment."
+37,2,Better than CNN or Fox News,"If you want to think critically about the real issues at stake in the politics surrounding the War in Iraq and Afghanistan, buy this movie. Both major viewpoints are represented honestly, and the movie leaves it up to you to decide.Or, if you're a college student not sure what your role in society should be, buy this movie. Robert Redford's character's exchange with his student will speak to you, as it did to me."
+38,1,Doesn't glow...,"It hasn't broke or anything yet, but it doesn't glow I held it up to a light for forever and then shut the lights off and it doesn't glow."
+39,2,"""Must Have"" for Colonial Williamsburg fans","I have little to add that won't repeat what other reviews have already said. Great photos, fascinating history of the restoration and a wonderful way to prepare for your next visit. The text alone would make a great audio tour guide (author/publisher, are you listening?)"
+40,2,Great Poster,This poster is great. Nothing else to say other than that! The shipping took a bit of time but that did not negatively affect my buying experience. Would def buy from this seller again!
+41,1,Dang it!!!,Was hoping for a smooth upgrade from Windows 2000 to XP Pro.Didn't happen. FYI - always back up before monkeying withupgrades!What a pain. I hope the OS works better than the upgrade process.
+42,1,7001 Resumes,"This is one of the worst resume books I have ever seen! It is poorly written, formatted atrociously, resume examples are awful (and there are no where near 7,0001 examples). Don't waste your money! I'm sorry that there are no options to give this a minus star rating."
+43,1,This magazine does not exist any more !,"I have placed my order with Amazon on 27th of September 2008. It took until December 1st for the publisher to send me letter, informing me that they will not continue to publish the ""Coral"" magazine any more. A new magazine is in the works and will be available some time in spring 2009.They offered me to stick to the new magazine or to get a refund, which would be processed withtin 60 to 90 days. So all in all I have then given these guys a $40 credit for free for 6 months ?I had subscribed to the german magazine ""Koralle"" for years. ""Coral"" is the US version, they have reprinted the german version always a few quarters later. IMO ""Koralle"" is still one of the best magazines about reef keeping and marine aquariums and it's sad too see what happened to it here in the US...."
+44,2,My 3 year old loves this...,"She plays with it every night. it's great because it has a 15 minute timer so when the stars go off she knows it is time to go to sleep, if she already isn't."
+45,2,Gaelen Foley continues her streak,"Gaelen Foley's books have never failed to hold my interest. She entwines her stories with history, romance, a little heat and some mystery and intrigue on the side. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and look foward to her next historical romance. There are still a couple of branches in the Hawkscliffe family tree that certainly deserve their own stories. I am eagerly anticipating their arrival. Keep 'em coming Gaelen!!"
+46,2,Tony M: Prince Caspian,"The Dwarf Trumpkin tells the children (Peter, Susan, Edmund, and Lucy)the story of Prince Caspian and how he escaped the castle of Miraz for fear of his life. With the help of Aslan,(the lion)and the children, Caspian defeats Miraz and became the new king of Narnia."
+47,2,Wisdom and The Care of Our World,This book gives very interesting insights by many learned people into how we can use the collective wisdom of our forefathers and the enlightenment of God to better understand and preserve this world in which we live.
+48,1,I couldn't wait for this steaming pile to end.,The title of my review is my actual review. I don't think this utterly dull POS merits any more effort being expended.
+49,1,Not enough to pass!!,"I bought this book with high expectations having used Exam Cram's before, during my CCNP testing. I'm sad to say this book was not up to par with the other Exam Cram books I've bought in the past. This book alone will not even get you close to passing the exam, it's missing a lot of detail information that you need to pass the exam. It covers general information but is no where near in depth enough. I bought this book after my 1st attempt hoping to find answers to questions and they just simply were not there. I suggest using the CCIE prep Kit, Jeff Doyles book, and most important CCO. Using all of those resources got me by on my 2nd attempt with a 10pt increase in my score. Good Luck"
+50,2,Worthwhile 'Departure',"It's fun, it's funny and the food is fantastic! Fifty-something narrator Sheila Katz is great to hang out with as she deals with the crash of tedium and too much change in her family life -- and tries not to gain too much weight in the process. She is in the middle: of the generations, of her husband and daughter, of her past and future. And as she comes to terms with these various conflicts, the reader is carried along for a wonderful off-script ride. Funny but not slapstick, A Departure from the Script has a lot to say about how people change and how they don't. I think its message is: we don't always get the script we want but the departures are how we really learn our parts. Thoroughly enjoyable."
+51,1,Terrible bibs,"I got these thinking that they were just like the 5 pack I-play terry bibs that I bought [...], but they're not! The 5 pack is three ply, with the plastic sandwiched in the middle of two terry cloth covers, so drools and spit ups will not soak through. These just have the two layers with the plastic on the back, somehow it soaks right through leaving my son's chest all wet. It seems like the company is trying to save money or something by skimping on an extra layer of terry cloth. I can't recommend these, they didn't work for me. I suggest going to Babiesrus.com and buying the I-play 5 pack bibs, they are far superior, I depend on them every day and two months later, they've stood up very well to (almost) daily washings."
+52,1,Tight plot - but I was disappointed by characters,"I was disappointed by this book despite the very positive reviews on this page. The plot was entertaining and tightly constructed, but the characters didn't match up: I felt I'd read about them all (or rather seen them on '70s detective TV shows) too many times before."
+53,1,"An author ""bigger"" than his subject","After reading this book I came to the conclusion that I prefer to read the books of Mr. Ressler's former collegues. I found his general attitude in writing this book to be if he did not profile the subject it was not done correctly. It is also apparent he has a recurring need to elevate himself above John Douglas which takes away from the subject in his book. This book would have been a better read if it had not ""starred"" Mr. Ressler as opposed to the subject matter at hand."
+54,2,An absolute masterpiece,"For those who are still living and for those who only remembering living, The Business of Fancydancing presents an absolute depiction of life on the world Rez. The reality of this picture, makes it one of the two most perfect works of cinema I've ever seen. If you desire to see a work of reflective genius, view this!P.S. Thanks to all involved!"
+55,1,Hurtful and horrifically damaging,"Anyone with any experience in domestic violence knows that the abuser in the situation will immediately claim their partner abused *them*. I work with First Step, a nonprofit organization to help the victims of domestic violence break out of abusive relationships. I have seen abusive men scream that the woman had 'clawed his face' or 'slapped' him. From experience I can say that nine times out of ten this 'abuse' is done out of fear, often when the abuser has the victem pinned against the wall. A case I just assisted on involved a woman who slapped her husband after he had pinned her to a wall. He punched her in the face and broke the woman's nose. He still maintains that he was in the right, and that he was the abused. This is a techinque of power, of making the woman feel guilty and weak. No violence is acceptable, but making the claim that men are abused to a larger extent than women only helps further sterotypes benificial to violent men."
+56,2,"Not bad, could use improvements","Considering I bought this from Amazon for 29.99 I couldn't be happier. I would, however, be upset if I paid more money. For one, this unit really needs a recharging cradle instead of having to stick in the dinky cord end each time I want to recharge the unit (which is going to be ALWAYS). Second, the bristles on the unit are too short and a little too firm, not really making it ideal for hardwood floors but better for tile. Finally, it's a little on the heavy side which makes it a bit awkward to use in tight spots. Overall though, for 29.99 you can't go wrong. No way would I pay full price, however, with all these deficiences."
+57,2,Stress Relief Today,"As an author and expert in stress management, I think everyone should have this book on their shelf. It just makes sense to focus in on this important topic to cope with every day stressors.[...]"
+58,1,An all time low,This book's only good characters were Swartt and Veil. Sunflash was the most stupidest badger of them all. He was invincible in the book and that ruined about everything. The woodlanders were just rip-offs of past Redwall characters but some parts were good.
+59,2,Animation Writing and Development : From Script Development,"Jean Ann Wright's ""Animation Writing and Development : From Script Development to Pitch"", is a comprehensive and well written book, on the subject.I would highly recommend it to anyone who is interested in writing for animation."
+60,1,13 Months,"Bought it in the middle of last September. Now, the motor's dead in slightly over a year. It was melted in (glad there was no fire). Bummed out because my cats loved it. It should definitely have lasted longer."
+61,1,Stiff leather...,"It is a case that can carry your PDA and that is it. If you plan to put anything into the the little money sleeve, you probably will not be able to close it properly. I found the leather to be much too stiff and notice cracks after two days of light use. The only good thing I can say about this case is that it is small enough to fit into the rear pocket of loose fitting trousers. I am likely to continue shopping around for another case made of softer (higher quality) leather."
+62,2,Joe Black,This is an awesome take on how death and life can change in a blink of an eye and it keeps you guessing what will happen next.
+63,1,yoga two gether,"Poor production value you can hear the low tone of the vcr tape spinning the whole time, quite distracting. It is hard to follow because the instructor is not great at descibing the actions, and since you have to keep an eye on the screen at all times. Not for beginers because he does not descibe well. It is probably great for experienced yoga praticioners but not beginers as stated. And just a note I will not be bullied into removing this post by the people who made this video like he did to the last person that gave it a negative review, good day."
+64,2,Great educational tool,"This book was well received by preschoolers through second grade; and I am sure it could be used in even higher grades. I used it along with the Insect Lore Butterfly Life Cycle Stages ""toy"" also sold by Amazon. Used together they made an excellent tool for teaching metamorphosis to the age group I had. I liked it so much I ordered more books and ""Life Cycle Stages"" bugs for additional lessons."
+65,2,Huh?,"Well, well.As I consider myself erudite, at some point in my life I knew I'd have to read this book. It's been on the shelf with Finnegan's Wake, Moby Dick and The Magic Mountain. Having finished the other 3 I had no remaining excuse.I still have no idea what it's 'about.' It frequently made me want to gouge my eyes out with a fork. I'm not sure if thats good or bad.Now I'm going to start reading Against the Day. Pray for me."
+66,2,it was ok,"not a bad cd....seen better, but seen alot worse....i'd buy it again. it is a very good cd for the money"
+67,2,Music and Passion,Fantastic album from start to finish in typical Manilow style. Hits all the various emotions in a way that only he can.
+68,1,Shocking,"This book is utterly outdated. Please see Mao: The Unknown Story by Jung Chang and Jon Halliday and other more recent scholarly work.My rating of two stars is to give credit for a tremendous amount of work and consideration for the timeframe in which it was written, but this book should not stand alone as a history of the Long March at this time."
+69,2,Impressive.,"I'm impressed with the research that went into this book... The problem I have with ""living on Internet time"" is that no one ever gets deep into an issue or a problem. These authors have managed to do it, and the result is a book that comes up with a believable ""big picture"" of the new economy. The business models that they describe are clear and practicable, and the research is detailed. Certainly helpful and perhaps even vital reading for any businessperson interested in the internet - and if you're not interested, WHY NOT?"
+70,1,A band with a multiple personality crisis,"Are they thrash or are they power metal? They don't know themselves. There must be two main songwriters here, one who likes to write thrash and the other power metal. Being a power metal fan myself, I find the thrash a bit hard to digest. Not because I hate it a priori, but because it clashed with the rest of the album. As Far As I Can Go is as good a power ballad as there is, and the vocalist is generally very good. But songs like Child Of Time should have remained in the can"
+71,1,3 Words- FIRE YOUR AGENT,"This is a complete fantasy movie. Completely.Where the hell is a 20-year-old kid going to get chemicals like this and then these elaborate get-ups and devices and then set them up rigged to go off based on how many people are hitting his web site? My god, most boys his age can't even perform proper oral sex let alone mastermind this kind of serial killing. It's just complete fantasy.The kid from `Running with Scissors' plays the bad guy and wow; fire your agent, please. Diane Lane has no excuse. This is just bad behavior on her part. Bad behavior.When I die, I will defiantly be talking to Whomever is in charge about getting the time I wasted watching this film added back onto my life as a matter of principle."
+72,1,Bad Mix in the 80's and still bad now,I got this album when it first came out. Played it and thought there was something wrong with my speakers. The mix was horrible couldnt hear the drums like you should have. Really ruined an album which had some great riffs and songs. Saw the offer for the digitally remastered and jumped on it. Problem is the mix is still horrible. They added some bunus items but the mix on the lives tracks is horrible too. Album needs to be remixed not remastered. Pretty dissapointing for me. Too bad cause the songs are good.
+73,2,The Album That Started It All...,"I admit, Misty Mountain Hop, Four Sticks, and even When the Levee Breaks (though the drum sound is cool) are a bit boring. But when you focus on the brighter side of this album, you can forget that those songs are even there. Jimmy Page's guitar playing is even more phenominal than ever before, John Bonham manages to create amzing drum sounds that people still use today, John Paul Jones plays other instrument besides just the bass, and even Robert Plant finally manages to write great lyrics! I don't know how someone can live without owning this album. Each and every song changed the way music is played today. Put down this album if you want, but face it, without its existance, who knows what music would sound like today? I shouldn't be telling you to buy this album because you should already own it."
+74,2,Classic Christmas Hits,"I was looking for an album with Christmas songs that I remembered from my childhood so that I could introduce them to my own children. This album has the hits I was looking for - Brenda Lee's ""Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree"" and ""Jingle Bell Rock"" sung by Bobby Helms are two that immediately get me in the Christmas spirit. All in all, a nice collection of classic Christmas music sung by artists that I recognize and love. I think I may purchase the first volume as well (this is Volume 2)."
+75,1,OH MY ACHING HEAD,Bad humor and lots of overacting. This one lasted about ten minutes but then I tossed the DVD up in the air and blew it into tiny bits with my shotgun. WHEN WATCHED: 1/20/2010; MY GRADE: D minus.
+76,2,Fantastic sheets at a FANTASTIC price!!!!!,These sheets rock! I love them! They are well worth the price as well. Don't listen to other bad reviews of these....they are strong and durable and soft at the same time.
+77,1,Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz,"Wow! Am I ever happy I did not spend 10 bucks to see this in the theater. It is possibly the most boring movie I have ever seen. Granted, I am not particularly interested in this genre, but even my boyfriend, who was all hyped up to see this, was bored senseless."
+78,2,Drier belt,"The product arrived promptly. We have been using it for about a year with an average of a load a day and no issues. The price is right and free shipping, I'd buy it again. Drier belts take a bit of thinking to install!"
+79,2,So Many Questions... So Little Time,"This book is great for getting to know someone our just to start a conversation. My boyfriend is across the country for med school, and this book has really helped our long distance relationship."
+80,2,Red Bull X-fighter.,A gift for my son. He has watched it several times and is impressed with the quality of the production and the exciting competition. A very entertaining DVD.
+81,1,I don't get it,"I just don't get it. Virgin Records lists this as the seventh best album ever. I can't figure out why. When Man on the Moon came out I hated it, but I figured there was something else on the album that made up for it. There wasn't.I bought mine used, and at [the listed price], I think I got robbed. Nothing on here is particularly impressive. The ""emotion"" that is supposed to sell the song can be found in equal quality on a Backstreet Boys album, and they have catchier tunes.All in all, this is NOT the decade-defining album the producers try to sell it off as. Save your money, or better yet, take the money you would have spent on this album and bet your friends that the members of REM end up homeless within the span of five years."
+82,1,Crappy Playability,"The playability on this PC version is terrible. The controls don't work like they should. Even with my P4 and enhanced sound, the soundtrack and voices lag and stammer. The puzzles are annoying and outdated. The layout of the route you follow is redundent. The game is tedious and slow. The plot and dialogue are corny. This is like a game from the 1990's that's been updated with 2000 graphics. I think you're better off with Quake 2 or Enclave."
+83,1,Not too great.,"I agree with ""Burning Babies"". The instrumentals weren't that great...and the overall sound lacks (not to mention the fact that the whole CD seems as if it's one giant, similar-sounding song). The vocals are actually, in my opinion, pretty well executed though. They remind me of Chris Barnes except a bit higher in pitch and fuller, so to speak. Still, the CD generally lacks. It sounds similar to Misanthropic Carnage also, but I'd say Misanthropic Carnage is better than this LP. It has more variation and technicality to it than this one.So, if you're into standard, semi-boring grindcore-ish death metal then this release is for you. If you're more into technical death metal and standard non-grindcore-like death metal vocals with a substantial amount of variation among songs, then I wouldn't suggest this to you."
+84,2,Great toy! Educate with entertainment!,"Great toy! Not often you can find a toy that is really FUN and still EDUCATIONAL. My 10 month old loves it as much as my 3 year old. And it is a great toy to have on the kitchen fridge, up and out of the way in a room that normally toys are not kept in. My baby loves playing with it while I cook and my toddler likes it so much he often packs it all up in a tupperware and takes it with him. I'm buying more of these as gifts both the kids and parents will love it! Good job Leap Frog! Thank you!"
+85,2,Our reading group loved Leah's Way!,"Our reading group loved Leah's Way! This book had a very unusual story that our group really enjoyed - and it led to lively discussions. The story is so unique and unusual, we couldn't get it out of our minds. Leah is an intriguing character and there are many lessons in her life that can be applied to readers.We all highly recommend this novel."
+86,1,Not interested in DRM. I want a game!,"I'd love to purchase this game, but I can't in good conscience buy it until EA removes the draconian DRM and treats me like a customer, not a pirate."
+87,2,Passage of time,"It doesn't seem possible that I've enjoyed sharing, watching these with my children, then my grandchildren, and now my great-grand-children. Quality never expires. This product arrived in excellent condition, and in a timely manner. Thank you, seller, for allowing me to continue learning with fun with now, three generations. I will buy from you again, I'm sure. Charlotte"
+88,2,one of the best thrillers ever written,"Kay Nolte Smith won a well deserved Edgard award with ""The Watcher"".The book is just wonderful, a lot of suspense, a smart and unusal plot and an interesting protagonist.I loved it."
+89,2,Great value,Shipment was quick and clippers work awesome I use to spend $20 a month at sport clips for a simple haircut. Now I cut it my self and I'm not skilled at all but everyone thinks I get it done professionally.
+90,2,"Funny movie, but...","I so wanted to see this one in the theaters but missed it. I rented it when it came out and bought it before I returned the rental dvd. I thought it was very very funny and has the most unique scene of someone nearly preventing their own conception!The part of it that I take exception to is this: I am part of the generation that is shown going back in time. I was 21 in 1986. Not everyone in my generation (or any others) did the drugs and stuff that they show. They give the impression that everybody did drugs then but we didn't all do them. I stayed away from them and haven't ever touched them. Normally I dis any movie that glorifies drug use but in this case I made an exception.Ignore the drug use (not all of us did that) and enjoy seeing of all people, Chevy Chase being called an old man! I just don't have that mental image of him as an ""old man"" sort of like I can't imagine Clint Eastwood being called an old man by anyone who wants to live to see tomorrow!"
+91,1,I only give it one star because I can't give zero.,"My doc was amazed when I told him how much of the Natrol DHEA I'd been taking, because my numbers were so low. He said my DHEA should be around 200, and it's 83.3 AFTER a month of 100mg/day, when he usually recommends 10-25/day, depending on your levels. Not sure what's in this, but it sure as heck isn't 25mg of DHEA."
+92,2,My Favorite CD,"The best song in this whole album is Together Forever. I love this CD. It's the bestest!!! I liked Mistys Song when I first heard it but when I listened to it more, it sucked. But i really liked Together Forever!"
+93,1,How low will America go ?,Using kids for the propaganda purposes should be declared as a war crime. I rest may case.
+94,1,Not Impressed,"Having read a number of John Grisham books I found that they were all getting a bit samey and I don't even know why I started to read this one.Now that I have read this book I wish I hadn't bothered and actually feel that I wasted the first few days of my holiday in reading it. This book is really quite dire. Whereas all good stories have a beginning, a middle and an end, this story is just a four hundred page long ending. This makes the book quite tiring to read! I only finished reading 'The Partner' because I always finish what I start and I have given it 1 star out of five as I can't give it none."
+95,1,Mediocre black comedy from Robert Englund,"Actor Robert Englund directs this cheesy,low budget black comedy about a number 976-EVIL that possesses a nerd to have powers and then he kills people,while his cousin is making trouble. The movie is often confusing and sometimes gets tedious but the funny parts come from when the nerd named Hoax wants to be like his cousin and has a scooter and puts a engine and calls it his motorcycle and when the fish fall from the sky. Kevin Yagher's special effects are average and the acting is uneven. Not the worst horror movie but not the best either. Englund quit directing after this,Go figure"
+96,1,Meh,I really hoped these would be all that people said they would be but to be honest I didn't notice any difference. The fingers also were quite long. If you have long fingers that's great.
+97,1,"Great Band, Sound quality is Terrible","Capitol rushed this CD out in the early 90's and Collector's choice has used the same masters. The Songs Are Great, but the Sounds is very Tinny. Look for the out of print Remasters from Canada, you will not be disappointed in those. In fact, the Klaatu Web Site says this CD is ONE TO AVOID, unless you don't own the others already."
+98,1,"Liked how it worked, but it broke after 6 months of ave. use","This hair dryer was used lightly each morning on a flat top hair cut. I have no complaints about how it worked, but it broke for no apparent reason about 6 months after I gave it to my husband as a gift. In the middle of the night, the plug started sparking and had to be removed from the outlet. Now the red reset button no longer clicks in. Seems like a safety issue to me, so I'm tossing it."
+99,1,The Freemasons: A History of the World's Most Powerful Secret Society,"The book open my eyes more about this great organzation, that i glad to be a part of"
+100,2,Nice Introduction for Young Minds,"My nine year old daughter enjoyed the full page pictures in this book and was able to understand the basic concept of the human heart. I'm not sure I would categorize this as a ""children's book"", although the reading level is probably intended for a third or fourth grader. It served as a good reference for our unit study, but I think The Amazing Circulatory System by Slim Goodbody's Body Buddies is a more interesting and engaging book on the heart."
+101,2,Scribes of Life,"Yea the production might not be up there, but Journalist is getting a good start in the game. Working with the legendary M.O.P. and one of the best rap artist of all time, Canibus, Journalist will be here to stay. It took a few listens to get use to this album. He's a good lyricist, better than some of these cats. If you want to hear somethin' different, pic this 1 up."
+102,1,disappointment,"I love Tito, but this album doesn't have enough soul. I realize that these songs are more on the latin jazz than mambo side, but this stuff doesn't compare favorably to his better latin jazz work.Recording quality is good for a Tito CD, but I'd rather listen to ""12 Mambos & Take 5"" or ""El Rey"" anytime."
+103,2,Excellent product!!!!,"great deal, wi-fi, video, clear audio and with new upgrades it becomes even more perfect."
+104,2,Fantastic sleeper album!,"I found my cassette of this album while going through an old shoe box and after playing it I realized that I'd forgotten how good these guys were. I guess I'd classify them as blues with a slightly harder edge. For me the standout track is definitely ""Twenty Ton weight."" It is a loud blues rocker with some fantastic electric harp. If this Cd suffers from one flaw it's that the couple of tracks that use the tExas shuffle tempo sound a little too much like early SRV, but beyond that these guys are great in their own right and if you like electric blues this is a CD to add to your collection."
+105,2,Good Bag,"Good, durable bag for your Volkl rackets. Side pocket is great for keys, wallet, cell phone, etc."
+106,2,"Excellent thriller, you feel the pain and frustration",This book describes one these nightmare situations where the protagonist is accused of a crime he does'nt even know was committed. Although not a memorable book it is very entertaining(sp?). I recommend this book
+107,2,"Well, it's a barry book, likesay.","""Trainspotting"", first and best of Irvine Welsh's novels, tells a series of loosely linked stories about the gadges, radges, junkies and wide-os in Edinburgh.This book shows what Edinburgh is really like - forget all the purple heather, the bonnie lasses, kilts, bagpipes and killing the English - this is drinking, swedging, mainlining, shagging and doing over your mates.Written in a heavy Scots vernacular, the books blend of humour and horror provide an exhilerating experience."
+108,1,Ambitious but without direction,"Written by a more than competent reporter, this book takes on the inevitable question of what a US sleeper among al-Qaeda would look like, but barring that premise, develops nowhere. Berenson is at home with his observations of the conflict between America and Islam, but when he inserts philosophical analysis over his observations, we get a comfortably liberal re-interpretation of the same ideas that our president tells us via his speeches. In the end, every character is a stereotype, and each is defective and learns nothing, plus the ""mystery"" and ""suspense"" aspects are lacking thanks to a linear plot."
+109,1,The hype alone should have prepared this reader.,"The publisher and major book retailers did a masterful job of creating the demand for this book. Any effective and successful work of literature must, at the very least, 1) tell a good story that one would wish to reread, 2) encourage the reader to see even the tiniest bit of reality in a new and interesting way, 3) include only dialogue and description that furthers the overall momentum of the story and 4) accomplish all of the above without the inclusion of superfluous words and descriptions and stylistic quirks that do nothing but feed the ego of the author.The Corrections fails on all counts."
+110,2,John Wayne,"The product was received as the seller described it. I am a John Wayne collector and have most of his movies. Some good, some not so good but if it has John Wayne anywhere in the movie I want it. Thanks... Denny"
+111,2,Jane's Journey,I wish every educator and school attendee could/would view this! It is outstanding-and the message is vital for the future!
+112,1,HUGE disappointment,"WARNING do not buy this product if you have a pc. I bought an ipod mini for my daughters birthday (an extravagance I know but it was her only gift). The quirky itunes software and poor interface (ipod users may know that evil folder with an ""!"" by it) rendered it useless. Also the itunes software does not uninstall. Worst of all NO email tech support, and no phone tech support over the 3 day weekend. Stay clear of this product Zero stars."
+113,2,vegetarian propaganda?,"Motel Hell and other B movies of its ilk (ie, Deranged, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre) which explore cannibalism with various levels of tongue in cheek while linking them to the eating of ""acceptable"" meat not only can't help but comment on the human choice to be carnivore, but to challenge said choice. Farmer Vincent's got his theories on why it's okay to turn to people into smoked meat for consumption, and he considers himself to be kind to his ""animals"", but, of course, we are put off not only when we see him lopping the carcasses apart, but when we see his ""animals"" before their slaughter; the point is not that in many scenes it is hard to tell the human flesh from the pig flesh housed in the same smokehouse; rather, the point is it that is hard to tell the pig flesh from the human ANY time...and when Farmer Vincent fights his final duel beneath the mask of a slaughtered pig's head, it seems only just that a marriage of this two victim types should take place in him."
+114,2,A very good book.,"Normally I am the kind of person who goes for books with adventure and fantasy in them. But hey, I tried this one out and loved it. It's not as fast paced as some of the books I've read, but that suprisingly didn't matter. I suggest anyone read it."
+115,2,Gift of Real Simple,"I have to give this magazine to my daughter-in-law every year! She is obsessed and lives by it. Will probably be a lifetime gift. This I am thankful for. Thank you, Beth"
+116,2,Someone Was Watching,"This book was a little boring. The plot was a tad dull.There were a few times when you couldn't put the book down. I mostly liked the book. When you read a stupid part, you know it's gonna pick up.You keep reading in suspense. Anyone who likes suspense and a little mystery will love this book."
+117,2,HANDY REFERENCE,"HANDY LITTLE REFERENCE GUIDE; I REFER TO MY COPY FAIRLY OFTEN, BUT I WISH IT WENT INTO MORE DETAIL. SOME TOPICS I'D LIKE TO KNOW MORE ABOUT ARE MENTIONED EITHER SIMPLY ANECDOTALLY, OR ONLY IN PASSING."
+118,1,Lost and not found,I thought the book was poorly written. I found myself lost. Trying to make sense of the story. I did not like how it kept going back and forward with no easy flow. I find myself mad at the lost time I took to read this book to only find that this was not the first or last book in this series.
+119,1,My how times haves changed,"20 years ago I had a McCulloch saw and it was a work horse. This one is a piece of crap. Made in China (of course). Parts are loosely put together. It is cheap feeling. Most of all, it will not run properly and I wouldn't dare to try to cut wood for fear of something gogin horribly awry. Stay away form this bargain basement junk."
+120,1,Surprised!,"Given the overwhelmingly postive reviews for this product, I was very surprised when I opened the bottle and smelled the scent. It was, well... not very pleasant might be a nice way of saying it. When I put a bit on and had my wife and kids smell it (thinking that perhaps it was my uneducated sniffer) they confirmed that it was not a pleasant smell at all... it was almost as if the product had gone bad, if indeed aftershave can go bad. Setting aside the aroma which to my taste was not at all appealing, the bottle was fantastic and the clever sealed paper packaging was great! I have tried a few other bay rums (my wife is pushing me to get a scent) and all have been pretty pleasant but this particular product did not come close, unless the bottle is more important to you than the scent inside, I would probably try another brand or perhaps try the company's sampler set which provides the buyer with more options!"
+121,1,Watching paint dry would be more entertaining than anything Irwin Allen had anything to do with!,"What a talentless hack the man was. Unfortunately, he must have been part feline so that he would survive (professionally) to mount several other ""entertainment"" ventures ( Lost in Space, Time Tunnel, Land of The Giants) only to have them reflect the depth of his imagination and creativity."
+122,2,A Movie Ahead of Its Time,"Paranorman is one of the most progressive movies I've seen in a long time. The story consists of relatable characters, an intriguing plot, and excellent animation. Paranorman is a film that appeals to all age groups and is very much a family-appropriate movie."
+123,2,Great Explanations,"Overall, this text is well put together. It has good explanations and examples in each chapter. If you choose to take the time and do the self test questions at the end of each section, the answers are in the back. Also, the end of the chapter problems have answers that you can check your work. I haven't used the supporting web material yet, but there are tools and supporting material to download."
+124,2,One word: AWESOME!,"OMG! This CD is insane! Metal, mixed with acoustic, oh it's just amazing! My fav song on the CD is Circle, which shows off Coreys voice a lot! This CD is by far their best work. A little less heavy, but its lyrics make up for it! Get this CD ASAP! You won't regret it!"
+125,1,What's the rave on this?,"Mediocre to boring -- Held a few interesting facts, but all in all...one great big yawn! Do not recommend for any reason!"
+126,1,OK,Though Buckland did give a plethora of useful information is Obsession o himself and his own accomplishments distracted from the book as it became more about vanity of his own doings rather than a Craft instruction
+127,1,"Worthless, but travels far when thrown","If you read my reviews, you already know that I can almost always find something worthwhile about every product. Unfortunately, that is not the case with this one, unless you count how far it goes when you throw it off a deck.After a few grilling sessions, all the markings on this thermometer completely disappeared, rendering it useless. And by a few, I mean 4-5, not twenty. Then I had to toss it.Part of the problem is that this is designed to be placed directly on the hot grates, not hung above them, so the temperatures it has to endure are very high. Plus, it just isn't heat resistant enough to function properly.I now hang an oven thermometer from the warming grates so that it is over the grates, but not resting on them. That works well, and two years later it still isn't destroyed. Unlike this thermometer, which lasted less than a week.Here is the one I'm using now:KitchenAid Stainless Steel Oven Thermometer"
+128,1,This book needs to go in the FICTION section.,"I bought into this book hook, line and sinker (and the movie) as a child. THen I grew up and learned that everything you read isn't the truth.It's been proven the author manufactured artifacts (they even found the artisan who made a few of of them aftre being paid).Anyone considering reading this book or seeing the documentary should read the book Crash go the Chariots and other books that pick apart Von Daniken's work point by point.It does make fascinating reading but it's largely fiction. He twists facts. Leaves out anything that even remotely refutes his theories and as mentioned before manufactured 'evidence' where none existed.A bullet hole in a 40,000 year old Bison skull? How laughable is that?THis book IS valuable in that it can be used a teaching tool to show students they shouldn't believe everything they read.Every year some 'scientist' announces he's found Atlantis. Because of von Daniken I'v learned not to take such reports at face value."
+129,2,A mix...,"I give this book four stars because the book of fire is worthy of four stars, but the book of air is only worth three, but rounded up gives an overall four. The set seems to go downhill with every book. The first book was absolutely wonderful, then the second book was pretty good but starts off rough, then the third book is still good but is switching perspectives a lot, then the fourth book is just chaotic. It is really hard to follow the plot occasionally, or from who it's coming from. It is a necessary read, just because you will want to see how it ends, but a bit disappointing compared to the first volume."
+130,2,had high hopes,"Ms.Hamilton did a great job of grabbing and holding my attention, especially at the beginning, but, ultimately, I was disappointed. The trial scenes were well-written, but predictable, as was the relationship between Howard and Theresa. I felt like the novel's main work needed to be the impact of Lizzie's death on the main characters, but all was interrupted by the jail stay and trial. Each issue, child death and child sexual abuse deserves a novel all of its own. But I felt neither was adequately dealt with because the other was always in the way, demanding the reader's attention."
+131,1,Not the best,This book was extremely slow. At times it was alright but there are much better books out there about the Holocaust and World War II
+132,1,It came broken,"When I received the Surround play yard, two panels were broken( the knobs at the bottom that connect two panels together were snapped off and in the bottom of the box). I did not return the item because the next day I had a 15 year old beagle returning home from major neck surgery and needed it immediately. I've been using it as a pen with four panels but I definitely didn't get what I payed for."
+133,2,Get Amazon's instead,"If you purchase from microfiber, the total cost is about $15. If you purchase at least $25 from Amazon, the cost is $13 (free shipping)"
+134,1,"Please, someone, write another Oracle book","This book was required for a class I am taking, and I can't think of another reason to buy it. If you have a strong background in similar forms development platforms, you may be able to get enough out of this book to work with Oracle. But if you are completely new, this is not the book for you. The author brings in way, way too much extraneous detail, and the examples are complex and unrealistic. Some exercises require you to use tools & concepts not introduced until later chapters."
+135,1,Junk,"I owned one of these for about a week. The tank falls off easily, as will all Shop Vac products; the hose has to be glued on, and all the plastic cheapness is not worth the decent motor and suction. Filters cost a fortune for this tiny nothing."
+136,1,Rabbit Cage,I need to amend my previous review of this product due in fact to a weld that connects the wheel to the bottom of the cage that broke. The product was not packaged in a way that prevented it from becoming bent in several places thus making it hard enuff that I literally broke my thumb trying to assemble it and required emergency service on my thumb. I have no intention on paying to ship it back to the seller as I am already out enuff money from purchasing the cage plus hospital expenses and lost time from work. I feel it will be a matter of time before more or all of the welds around the wheels will break.
+137,2,Great Value,"These Sony SS-B1000 speakers are a great value. Great sound quality with low cost. The small footprint is nice, too."
+138,1,it says mother not mom,i know a little about Egyption hieroglyphics and i know that the pendent says mother not mom. i know that some people r like so what it means the same thing but i feel that when u spend that much money on something u should at less have the right translation.so for anyone who is still reading this i will tell u about the symbols i know: the fist is a bird(i believe an owl) which stands for M / the second is a rope which is an O / the third symbol(which looks like a U on its side) stands for TH / then the feather looking symbols stands for E (it is also the symbol for I and Y) / the symbol that looks kinda like a mouth is R / and the last symbol is a woman siting which stands for woman. so yea if you wanted to know what the symbols stood for now u know and if u buy it for someone u can tell them what the symbols stand for and look super smart ;)
+139,1,Wouldn't stay flat for me,"I bring my toaster oven to my enrichment classes to do with the kids, and use the Shrinky Dinks brand and it's always worked for me. But I decided to give this ""White"" color of this Grafix brand a try, which was cheaper, and it just wouldn't flatten back out for me. I left it in the oven for a long long time, and still, it wouldn't flatten. The sheet is also not as thick as the Shrinky Dink brand after shrinkage (about half the thickness). I've tried it with sanding the paper down and not sanding it, and still it doesn't work. What am I doing wrong?"
+140,1,Not this one either...,"As indicated in a review for the V600, I received the V551 as a replacement for the V600, after that phone had already been replaced several times.Initially, I liked the V551 better, even though it is a less expensive phone. It seemed much less ""buggy"" than the V600. However, I have had more dropped calls, and more failed calls (which I initiate), and worse reception than with any phone I've ever owned.And just like on the V600, the stupid mechanism on the left side of the phone changes the ringer capriciously. Expecting a call? Don't hold your breath. The ringer is now on ""silent""."
+141,1,Give Me A Break,"This movie was nothing but an attempt to capitalize off of a past hit. The only reason this was made is because MIB 1 did good in the box office. Other than having the same characters and being about aliens, MIBII had nothing to do with the first movie. It did not build a pone the already developed characters and did not offer anything new. If not for the comedy and FX, I would have walked out over the sheer disappointment of the existence of this film. The best thing about this film was that Lara Flynn Boyle walked around half dressed the whole time."
+142,1,Waste of time and $$$,"Ok, the intructor stinks, she loses count of reps, is never in synch with the music and she just doesnt motivate me at all. The workout itself is SO easy and the cardio section doesnt work you into a sweat at all. Dont even bother."
+143,1,I Was Not Pleased,"The stories in this book are in no way similar to the Fairy Tales I read and loved as a child. The stories in this book are unrecognizable, and a figment of someone's imagination who does not have a clue that Fairy Tales are for children. I will delete it from my Kindle. Amazon should not offer it!"
+144,2,won't tip over!,"We're really happy with these bowls (we got the 2-quart size). They're a little big for our puppy, but we'll be able to keep them when he's full grown (he'll be ~55 lbs then). The tray that they're in keeps our pup from being able to tip the bowls over which is great. The only con I have is that the bowls are kind of loud (which is expected since they're stainless) - at first our pup was afraid of the noise so it took him awhile to get used to the clanking while he was eating."
+145,2,haunting,"this book shook me up for so long, then i read ""deep end of the ocean"" and was so disappointed in that being the oprah pick, and a disturbing and moving book like ""stolen child"" got overlooked. ""deep end"" i couldn't wait to get through it, it was awful. ""stolen child"" was so tense and disturbing, a great read. one i think about years later."
+146,2,This cooler does the job,"I've used this cooler on a 7-day sailing kayak-camping trip along coastal everglades here in S Florida. I'm always careful to keep any cooler in the shade as much as possible, and I open it as little as possible. The cooler still had ice (in 2-l bottles) remaining at the end of the trip. It was never 90 deg, but I was satisfied with the cooler. I gave it 4-stars because you could always ask for more.The person who complained about the drink holders being cold ought to stick foam in those openings if they are not going to use them. Others might love a cooled drink holder for a coke at 90 deg."
+147,2,pda? or small computer?,Getting the time to learn more about this pda is my main problem. I am very please with it.There is so much more you can do with it.I love the wi-fi.Not had a chance to use the bluetooth yet.
+148,1,Isn't there a larger version of this game??,"This is too small for the age of child it's designed for. I swear there used to be a larger version. Plus, it didn't survive more than a few sessions of our play group before the spring broke."
+149,2,Heavy and heavy duty.,This hair dryer is big and heavy but thankfully it dries hair pretty quickly and doesn't seem to damage my fine hair like other super hot dryers. I don't have tons of thick hair so it works for me but people with long thick hair would also have tired arms.
+150,2,Kindle Version with Illustrations,"In response to the reviewer who said the Kindle version has no illustrations - I have the Kindle version of this, and it has all the same illustrations as the hard cover edition. Not only that, the illustrations are all in full color and fully-linked in the credits section. I would highly recommend the Kindle version to anyone looking for an ebook version of this book. Disclosure: My company did the formatting for this book along with the illustrations and links (Fowler Digital Services)."
+151,2,"Cute, Cheap, does the job","I was choosing between this and another similar lion costume, but went with this because it was cheaper. I got a medium and it fit great and looked similar to the picture, however the skirt may be a little short, so I also wore some spandex shorts underneath. Only issue I had was the zippe started to come detached from the fabric near the top, but I didn't notice that till I got home, and it's nothing a safety pin can't fix. I would buy from them again."
+152,2,Backlash 2006,1.WWE Title John Cena(c) vs Edge vs Triple Hwinner Triple H he will get the win and the title finally again this match should be about 8 or 8.5 out of 102. Shane Mcmahon and Vince Mcmahon vs HBK and Godwinners The Mcmahons but they need to make this match NO DQ the mcmahons dont know how to wrestle 7 out of 103. Carlito vs Chris Masterswinner Carlito i have always liked Carlito cuz he always makes me laugh so i am happy for the face turn 7.5 out of 104. Umaga vs Ric Flairwinner Umaga (he is Jamal from 3 Minute warning)6 out of 105.Big Show vs Kanewinner Kane I think Show will turn heel 7 out of 106. Tag titles Spirit Squad vs Snitsky and Goldustwinners Spirit Squad 6.5 out of 107. IC Title Shelton Benjamin vs RVDwinner Shelton Benjamin this will be a great match 9 out of 10Backlash should be a great PPV
+153,2,Love these!,"What can I say? I love these glasses. Perfect size and glass is not to thick and not to thin. I have a way of breaking wine glasses over a period of time and when I do, I will definitely purchase more of these."
+154,1,Will NOT Fit,this will not cover a CA king mattress and the stretchy fitted part will NO WAY stretch enough to get it on just 2 corners. I have not received my email for the return EITHER.
+155,2,Wax Poetic,"Nublu Sessions is a great sounding record fusing jazz with electronic and worldbeat flavors. Norah Jones' two songs that appear on Nublu Sessions were ones she regularly sang with Wax Poetic while she was in the group. Wax Poetic is a revolving door of talent with contributions from U-Roy, Saul Williams, N'Dea Davenport and others. The vibe of this CD will defintely help you to chill out - without putting you to sleep :)"
+156,1,An ad for the authors other products,This book is really just an advertisement for the author's live seminars and other products.A bit of a waste of time and money.
+157,1,unpleasant,"This book was unpleasant in the beginning and I stopped reading halfway once I figured it out: what was the point...? I worked at a bookstore at the time and read it on my breaks, and I am glad, so that I didn't waste money buying it..."
+158,2,Soothing Guitar,"My first introduction to Lawrence Barris came after hearing ""Loveland"" from this cd a few years back. I own both of Lawrence's cds and I think this one is far better than his Love on Me cd. All the songs feature that soft and soothing guitar accented by keyboards and percussion. My favorite is still ""Loveland"", but other good songs include ""Our Midnight Dance"", ""Sometime, Somewhere"" and ""Afternoon Samba"". This cd is definitely worth checking out."
+159,1,"Too big, too loose, not a good swoosh","I was looking to replace the net that came with my basketball hoop. That one had survived about 5 years of year-round exposure. This net from Spalding installed easily and appears to be constructed with decent material. However, when ""testing"" it I noticed it seems longer than other nets I see. It also seems too loose (wide or big at bottom). The ball just kind of goes right through it. I was hoping it would grip it for a moment but the opening seems very large. The bottom should be narrower than it is. I also don't get a satisfying sound on swish shots. I was hoping for a more solid 'net' sound but it's just kinda nothing, since the ball pretty much goes straight through it. Hopefully the sun and some rain will shrink it or something. It's not horrible. It is a basketball net, but I will likely replace this one soon with something shorter and tighter at the bottom."
+160,2,Love it...light...easy,I've gone to all battery power. It's light and my yard isn't huge. I just take ten minutes when I get home from work and clean things up. I did order an extra battery so I never have to wait to finish....just in case I get obsessed with those little stragglers.
+161,2,L'Elisir d'Amore,"A delight from beginning to end! Anna Netrebko and Rolando Villazon have great chemistry. They both seem to love the fun of it all. All the characters are well cast. The Donizetti music alone is such fun all by itself, but adding the opera itself makes it magical. I can't imagine anyone who enjoys light opera not loving this."
+162,2,Hoover detergent,I used the detergent as directed and was pleased with the amount of dirt it helped release from the carpet. I was also pleased with the smell(I am not a big fan of perfumed smells)it just smelled clean.
+163,2,Great dryer!,I really like this style however it is somewhat heavy for my taste. I used a similar one at a hotel....
+164,2,Almost pulled the trigger....,But then I saw that Nineteen Hundered And Eighty Five was missing.How an earth could they let that happen?Nice collection otherwise.The search continues...
+165,1,Did we really need this one?,"What are movies coming to? I've seen all the Friday the 13th movies before this one, and to be honest, the series was good up through Jason Goes To Hell. At least that one gave some sense of finality for the story. As with a couple other movies with multiple sequels, which I won't get into now, this one was made just for the sake of being made. Someone apparently felt the need to put their notch on the horror tree, but I'm thinking they were just bored one weekend and needed something to do. For the sake of not waisting your time, if you feel the need to see this movie, rent, don't buy."
+166,1,Anything I can't finish gets 1 star,"Rather boring. I was excited about the story line but was dissapointed by the actual writing. All I remember about this book is ""this person marries that person and gets some money. Then there is some battle and something about some mushrooms."" For such a long book there is a surprising lack of detail or drama. I got within 50 pages of the end and ask myself ""why bother?"""
+167,1,Returned and then replaced,"San Disk C150. Stopped working in about 10 days(locks up after boot up screen), returned and received new one. Replacement stopped working in about 5 days. I am now going to replace it.And yes,I went through the SAn Disk support first,but they told me to return it. On a good note I was pretty impressed with the promptness of the phone surport."
+168,2,"Awesome to find a 30"" towel bar we like","We wanted to replace our towel bars in our master and my husband desparately wanted a 30"" bar. It was nice to find one that had the other inch towel bars to match. This is really nice and looks great in our bathroom."
+169,1,Can't Make It Work...,"This is a lovely book, full of really well-written and informative sections on nutrition, ingredients, putting menus together, and the recipes all sound wonderful and are easy to follow and well laid-out. However... I've made ten dishes from it, and not a single one turned out very tasty! I've had other cookbooks that produced occasional disappointments, but never one that so consistently left me crestfallen! So, while I really wanted to like this book, I feel I must warn others against it, sorry..."
+170,2,yummy,these are very good a great licorice tastewith a little subtle spicy taste !! This was myfirst purchase on amazon. Shipping was quicknow I am curiously addicted to these awsomeAltoids
+171,1,Hasn't this been done before?,"Give me a break! Are the previous reviewers of this book friends or relatives of the author or what?! I thought the humor was rather forced, and when an author tries to be funny, it ain't funny! Also, is it really necessary to use four letter words to get a laugh? I don't think so! The idea is also not all that original. Anybody out there remember Paternity with Burt Reynolds and Michelle Pfeiffer? If they really do make this into a movie, I, for one, won't be seeing it!"
+172,2,A blessing this music truly is,"The music of Bliss from Denmark, is my best discovery over the last 10 years..!I am amazed by their intelligent touch and delicacy and depth of their music. Everytime I listen to their records, it amazes me how I love their melodies, but especially the variation in soundscapes, rhytms, the instruments they use. It completely fits my life frequency and taste. Ths album AFTERLIFE is maybe the best they made, although I also love QUIET LETTERS very much. All my friends are equally impressed everytime they hear BLISS the first time. Anyone who likes downtempo, melodic music will fall in love - for sure!"
+173,1,How To Write a Movie in 21 Days,"I purchased and read this book because it was recommended by an author that has helped me develop in the screenwriting craft. But I didn't find it particularly helpful or practical. However, you might draw some inspiration from it."
+174,1,I can't believe they left out the BEST line!!,"Great movie, but one of the BEST lines from the theatre and VHS version of Last of the Mohicans is: ""Do not try to understand them and do not make them understand you for they are a breed apart and do not make sense."" We got the director's cut DVD and although it has the great ""big message"" ending, it is missing the above line (and from what I understand, also others).In summary, video quality was good for us but the scenes are jumpy and the audio pretty bad.DVD version not worth the purchase. Stick with the VHS version"
+175,1,It's too big,"This bath tub is humongous. It needs its own bath room. Too big to put it on top of a kitchen sink. Since the only place I found for it near water source is inside our bath tub, which places it practically at ground level, my back is killing me.Unless your are planning to remodel your bathroom to fit this monster, go for something else. Definitely not for a 700 Sqr Foot apartment in the city."

+177,2,"An informative, great read","Skagit is an exciting novel of political intrigue set on a Puget Sound island where environmentalists are trying to to save their hometown from developers. It's a story that should resonate with people who care about fighting the good fight against developmental blight.Besides being a good yarn, it could serve as a case history for anyone interested in getting involved in grass roots political action. It's far from being a political tract, though. Romance, mystery, and the supernatural are all part of the mix that makes this a great read. It kept me thinking long after I'd finished turning the pages."
+178,2,Great Trio set,"Horace Tapscott on piano (of course) with Art Davis on bass and Roy Haynes on drums. Recorded in New York (surprise!), 1979."
+179,2,Study The Mystery Paragraph,"Deville's book is an excellent history of the prose poem from Baudelaire to Stein to as well as a close study of important figures in the prose poem such as Russel Edson, Robert Bly, and Charles Simic. It started out a little slow, perhaps because it's been a few months since I've read a critical text, but then it became very readable. I was using this book to prepare for a prose poem panel discussion at a writing conference and found it extremely useful. It seems like the prose poem is finally well on its way to becoming a more accepted form. Recent collections such as Tony Tost's ""The Invisible Bride"" and Mary Koncel's ""You Can Tell The Horse Anything"" further this point. I highly recommend this book to anyone interested on prose poems, but don't expect an easy definition."
+180,2,I'm biased. this has always been one of my all time favorites,"this here is guy flick, women invited of course, however, this film captures the wanderlust of men. and the negative consequences of that wanderlust."
+181,2,Art book almost perfect!,"I received this book as promised and was greatly pleased until I saw the library stamps on the front and back inside covers. The library was in another state and the last check-out entry was 1987! I thought I had a ""stolen"" book so I called the library. The librarian asked me to search for a special stamp, either on the front or back. I found the stamp and was relieved because this stamp identified this book as an excess inventory which the library sold. I was thinking I'd have to send the book back to the library and demand my money back from the Amazon seller. It would have been preferable if the seller had mentioned this library book's status. It may be common to find such library books if one regularly buys used books but I don't and therefore had no prior knowledge. All worked out in the end and I'm very pleased with my purchase!"
+182,2,Creative Energy Juices are flowing,"This band keeps getting better and better. I know when you first listen to this CD, you think hey this is wierd. But intrumentally this album is brillant, it isn't as full of great lyrics as OK Computer and The Bends, but instrumentally this is great follow up, you gotta love 'Idioteque'if you don't own it, get it now."
+183,1,Total Waste of Money and Time,I tried to watch this with an open mind I really did. It just wasn't good - it seemed designed just to be repulsive and shocking ripping off Hostel and Saw -with more extreme footage. I think it was an excuse to film skinny naked girls and watch them in degrading situations. It didn't feel like art - it wasn't really interesting and it lacked any redeeming value whatsoever.I'm not saying this couldn't have been a half-way decent film - but it would require someone with more of an imagination and the ability to develop a plot. But that's just my opinion I understand some people really enjoyed it. I have watched other extreme type films and I was surprised at how well it was done no matter how disgusting the subject matter - 'Srapbook' comes to mind. So I thought I'd give this a looksee -but I was disappointed.
+184,2,Amazing,"Hours of entertainment! Our 3yr old loves it! Not only does Thomas follow the tracks or the lines you draw which is magic, its a wonderful learning tool for writing your alphabet, numbers and learning to draw."
+185,1,Let These Poor People Rest,"You people should all be ashamed of yourselves lining these scumbag Hollywood producers pockets with your money. This was one of our nations greatest tragedies & of course leave it to Hollywood to try to capitalize on that. ""Oh, some of money will be donated to the families of the victims"", I know, I know, I heard that too, it'd be interesting to see just how much money is in fact given to the families. No matter how much is donated the simple fact is someone, somewhere down the line is profiting off the tragic deaths of these people & that sickens me. This only happened 5 years ago people; do we really need 10 different movies about this god awful event? Let these poor people rest already. As far as anyone having to see this movie, download it illegally, bootleg it, I don't care so long as not one person even down to the smut peddlers renting it makes profit off of these peoples deaths."
+186,2,Adventure Around the Globe,"Abiner Smoothie and his pal, Puppy (who is a bunny, actually) pack up and travel in search of the answer to a great mystery. The illustrations are fabulous, and the situations they find themselves in are a hoot ! This is the sequel to ""Abiner Smoothie, The Last Elegant Bear."" Quite entertaining for an adult while reading to a child."
+187,2,Tuesdays with Morrie/DVD/movie,"Jack Lemmon was wonderful in his role as Morrie showing his own authentic aging in this movie which helped make the story more genuinely real. I have shown this true life story to my high school students, and it has brought tears to their eyes and an inkling of what lessons one can learn through experiecing even death--especially, such a devastating one as ALS. There were some changes in the movie of some aspects of the book TUESDAYS with MORRIE ,which is all the more reason to read the book as well which is totally factual. The ABC documentary of Ted Koppel's interviews with Morrie and the author--Mitch Ablom--is a perfect followup to the movie---extremely insightful, showing the reality of death, disease,and most of all, love and hope! The Lessons of Life-- ABC's Ted Koppel's three interviews with Morrie as the disease progressed throughout his body but not his spirit--- are inspirational and touching!!"
+188,2,boochiboy,"Wow!Some kind of a cross between Dance & New Age with a great attitude.The Critics say this & that about this CD......I am not really a Trance fan, but this CD works really well, with the beats used.Dance, Spiritual, Meditation??? Does that really work together?YES IT DOES!For me I hear the music style of Flock of Seagulls, Enigma, Tangerine Dream & Enya...but again, you can do some serious clubbing with a few of the tunes as well.I am very please with this CD..... I beleive you shall be too!"
+189,2,UNA GRAN AYUDA,"Muy seguro, y versatil segun como lo necesites, para mi padre de 90 años que recien está convaleciente de quebradura de cadera, ha sido de gran ayuda, facil de armar y colocar se ajusta bien a la cama."
+190,2,Must own this book!,"I absolutely loved this book! I enjoyed the history, the animals and of course Jacob and Marlena. I'm an animal lover and was heartbroken the way some were treated in the book, but, you must realize this can be reality. Trust me justice is served for the animal cruelty. I plan to pull this book out next year and re-read! It's a keeper."
+191,1,Very Disappointing,Decided to buy this unit over a Uniden one...what a mistake! I'll simply list the problems/shortcomings we've had/noticed in our 4 months of ownership:1. Batteries die in 16 hours without any use!2. Low Battery warning tone occurs 10 seconds before they die3. Playback of digital recorder is poor4. Reception/transmission is worse than our old Panasonic 900 Mhz5. Buttons small and too close togetherI truly regret purchasing this item.
+192,2,awesome and complete,"i had this shipped from amazon.com to manila, and totally loved it. there are so much variants of the M16/AR15 and it gets really hard to keep track of all . this guide tells you the make ,where to find it, who has it, and when it was made. i also learned so much from this book regarding the ""markings"" of an M16 and what makes yours special. i am a true loveer of the M16 rifle, and am very proud to own this book. now, i have learned many things which i haven't had the slightest idea of, before i bought this book! this truly is a good buy, if you want to authenticate, modify, and just plainly admore your M16 rifle"
+193,2,Love,"We love this puzzle! It's way cute! The colors are so vibrant and I love the large block style puzzle pieces, they are much more durable!"
+194,1,Distracted by the dialog,"Shadows in the White City: An Inspector Alastair Ransom Mystery (Inspector Alastair Ransom Mysteries)I was so distracted by the anachronistic dialog and ridiculous characters that I couldn't really appreciate the storyline. I love historical mysteries, and like to follow up on a series, but I can't go on with this one."
+195,2,Wonderful violinist,"The CD arrived timely and in good condition. We had only heard one of his songs and were somewhat disappointed that there was more symphony than solos which is what we were after,"
+196,1,Potential but doesnt deliver,"This movie couldnt decide if it wanted to be a slick heist movie or a gritty drug trafficing film. It balances itself between the 2 for much of the movie. There are a few points that seem to give rise to brilliance, but most of those are quickly tossed under the rug by standard cliches of drug, police and action movies.This movie offers nothing that you haven't seen before. Its a fine action flick to watch if you want to pass the time for a $1 redbox rental, but purchasing should be kept to marky mark fans exclusivley."
+197,2,Works fine.,"The caller ID box works fine. The only drawback is that the unit is very ""short"". On my desk it lays too low and is hard to read because of the glare. We have to prop them up right at a better angle to be able to read. Other than that, it serves it's purpose."
+198,2,Great audio book.,"This is a great audio book. Not just read by a narrator, there is lots of sound effects and characters. Very nice."
+199,1,This version is a piece of junk.,"Somehow when I decided to buy the more expensive version of this game, I expected higher quality and a better experience.This version that cost $70 including shipping, is a piece of junk. I looked at the $15 version over the weekend at a local store, and it is of much higher quality. This version is cheaply made and the pieces and pegs do not stay in the holes. What fun!Certainly the last time I will buy this type of item on Amazon."
+200,1,Piece of Carp!,Had this iron a little over a year. Paid too much money for it. Then it stopped working after 1X PER month use. I figure I paid 7-10$ per use for this piece of CARP! DO NOT BUY!!! STAY AWAY. ROWENTA WILL NOT MAKE GOOD ON REPAIRS OR CLAIMS.
+201,2,Wonderful. And it includes filters!,"Though not in the text of the product description, this includes enough filters for about a year of brewing (depending on your coffee intake). I'll just echo everyone else's thoughts here - the Aeropress brews a delicious, smooth cup of coffee, with easier cleanup than any other method. It's a bit odd looking, like a medical device, but is built to last. This, in combination with a burr grinder likeHario MSS-1B Mini Mill Slim Coffee Grinderis pretty much the best you can do with coffee."
+202,1,Dated material from an ex con,"Suarez not only did jail time for worker's compensation fraud, but claimed on the 700 club that he was on his way to shoot his fellow officers in their sleep when God appeared to him and talked him out of it.Get the magpul pistol DVDs insteadhttp://www.amazon.com/Magpul-Art-Dynamic-Handgun-DVD/dp/B00373PEVWOr Kyle Lamb's bookhttp://www.amazon.com/Fight-Warriors-Guide-Combat-Pistol/dp/0615428363/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid;=1357438155&sr;=8-2&keywords;=green+eyes+black+rifles"

+204,2,Best Snips on the market!,"These snips are excellent for all kinds of sheet metal. Since we do air duct cleaning, we need good snips that last a long time. I have had my pair personally since 2004 and they are still as sharp as the day I got them. We have tried all other brands such as Wiss and Midwest, but none compare to the Malco's!"
+205,1,Boring,"I'm sorry, but this was the most boring book I've ever read. It's so repetitive, the author writes about the same thing over and over and over, again and again and again. It was a total waste of time reading this book, I only read half of it and that was enough."
+206,1,"OLD, OUTDATED GRASS SEED","I bought this grass seed because I had not seen the brand before, and the description of it sounded great! Unfortunately, the grass seed did not grow - after many weeks, it is still sitting there, doing nothing. I checked the bag, and guess what? It is labeled 2010 - no wonder! very disappointed in this purchase."
+207,1,TERMOMETHER,This product is not giving me what I expect. Maybe is damage but I did not return it because it don't have RETURN PAPERS. I really don't recomend this product in my experiece with it.
+208,1,Landmark...,"Originally I was going to mark ""Black and Blue"" as the low point in the Rolling Stones catalogue...until I remembered this one! Has the be the lowest musical points in their stellar catalogue. ""One Hit"" is good, but the rest..oh my...If you want to hear this Rock group visit ""Let it Bleed"" or ""Exile on Main Street""."
+209,1,"Smell-good oils, not essential oils",The gardenia and lilac smell ok. These are not powerful pure essential oils though. They are just kinda nice smelling oils.
+210,2,Plugged it in ... Next thing I know I am Connected.,"Install the drivers, shut down, plug it in, boot back up and Windows knows right where the drivers are. Then suddenly it's installed and I am connected to my router. After being connected I went in and configures WEP to work and all those fancy things.I like this card and was surprised at how easily and quickly I was connected with a nice strong signal. My desktop is upstairs, but the wireless access point is downstairs. This card still gets a good signal."
+211,1,"If you want to learn, this is not the book.","I should have known that Reader's Digest is not the organization to look to for becomming informed. This book was a condensed version of facts about wildlife. The habitats on most animals were either incorrect, or very incomplete. In fact, there were very few species even included. If you are looking to get more information on your state's bird, forget about finding it in this book. If you are looking for all the members of the wolf family, forget about it. Basically, you should just forget about buying this book! If you want to actually learn, try finding publications from organizations dedicated to wildlife."
+212,1,CORNY,"It was ok , But a little week and corny for me. not one guy is invincable but 2 are invincable LOL"
+213,1,Disappointment plus!,"After having read The Book of Words trilogy and A Cavern of Black Ice, I could not wait for the next installment, so I enthusiastically picked up The Barbed Coil, expecting the high level of wit and action as displayed in J.V Jones first trilogy and A Cavern of Black Ice, which was a masterpiece. However I was bitterly disappointed! The character of Tessa does not invoke intrigue or sympathy, and doesn't compare to previous brilliant J.V Jones characters such as Jack, Raif, Melliandra etc.Tessa's transition from her world to that of Bay'Zell is lethargically explained, with Tessa simply accepting this transition, without so much as a second glance back. The story meanders along providing the reader with little interest. However, I willed myself through the book, promising myself that it would get better! It didn't!"
+214,2,Great,"Works well with my 4G sansa clip. USB connector is a little loose, but does not seem to be a problem."
+215,1,Boring,"Alex's artwork is phenomenal as always, but this has to be the most boring comic book ever written. The story involves Wonder Woman wondering how she could be more effective in her task here on earth as an ambassador of peace. While she's doing this you get to look at some paintings by Alex Ross. The End."
+216,2,Better than average for spot cleaning,"If you've got a pet, you have a need for a machine to clean up those nasty ""accidents."" There are a lot of spot cleaners on the market and I've tried many of them, including the ""green machine."" This device has some advantages over some other machines. It's easy to assemble and store. I like that it's corded (and comes with a very long cord). I've given up on cordless vacs; they just don't cut the mustard. The Spotlifter is easy to use. I tried it on a couple of old pet stains that my carpet cleaner failed to get up. To my surprise, it lifted these old stains."
+217,2,Excellent!,"Laurin Wittig has quickly become one of my favorite authors. This is the second of her books I have read (Charming the Shrew being the first) and I'll be looking forward to reading more about the Highlands in the future. Her writing style is descriptive enough to enhance the story, but not so much that it becomes an exercise in Scottish history. Her stories put one right there in the Highlands- I can almost smell the heather! Her characters are very likeable. Her heroes are strong without being arrogant, and her heroines can certainly hold their own against them. I love her books!"
+218,1,Timeless and Beautiful,The Phantom of the Opera will never grow old because of its beauty and continued performance by outstanding singers. I recently saw Love Never Dies at a theatre in Los Angeles and the beautiful story and production continue on with all its beauty and glorious music.
+219,1,Not very professionally done,"With the movie's title you would expect this film to be a Christian testimonial, and it is... but it doesn't come across very well. I watched this with a friend who is also a Christian, and we were both disappointed. In fact we didn't watch the movie all the way through. The story line was spotty and jumpy and the testimonies were not really clear what the different people experienced: exactly where they were, how they got out and when. Facts first... feelings later... please. I wanted to like it and even be able to use it as means of starting a conversation about the gospel but I'm afraid it won't function in that way."
+220,2,Schiffman = love,"Schiffman is the coolest. His tattoos rock, and his judo is like Menudo. I'm gonna use my company's training budget to buy his books just cuz he's cool."
+221,1,No illustrations included,This is a wonderful rendition of the original except for the fact that the numerous original illustrations and plans that are essential to the volume are not included.
+222,2,I use this to type around 40 pages per day,"Dragon seems to be an undiscovered tool. It allows me to dictate consultation notes and business letters in copious quantities without the expense of a typist or what would surely turn into a carpal tunnel syndrome. It's faster than using a typist as the turnaround time is instant.It's not perfect. I frequently have to use the mouse and the keyboard for absolute accuracy, but it beats typing by far. You can train unusual words in no time. It's only 99 dollars and worth a shot. You have to have a computer of greater than 750 mH with at least 128 RAM."
+223,2,Great Camera,"I bought this camera from Best Buy in October 2004, took it to Iraq with me and it worked beautifully. I thought the sand storms or the heat might get the best of it so I bought an extended warranty. Haven't needed to use it yet. The only drawback is the fact that it can only take 20 second videos. Besides that, this is a great camera."
+224,1,OMG Don't waste the money,Man this movie sucked. If you want to see a hole bunch of flasid penises and horrrible acting than this is the movie for you! It was just aweful please don't make the same mistake I did.
+225,2,Best instructional Platform available today,"This offers a comprehensive approach to proper vocal instruction that lends itself to all singers and levels of ability. No matter what the intent, this material will give substantive guidelines and techniques to build vocal strength in a healthy way."
+226,2,Simply perfect,"Specially the just Two days to deliver at my home in France, Provence. And i don't have to add anything,"
+227,1,Great at first but thin plastic,"There is a real fine thin piece of plastic that attaches the side with the microphone. It easily broke after a couple months of use, which made the headset totaly useless. Yet another headset tossed in the garbage."
+228,1,Recevied with problem on the ON/OFF switch,"I recevied the device in good packing kondtion but, when i switch it on and switch it back off i can not restart the device back antel i renstall the battery again. is there and way i can send you back the device for repair or replecment?please advice"
+229,2,Outstanding Performance with Conceptual Flaws,"Kansas paints a grim, albeit poignant picture of the American Midwestern small town in In the Spirit of Things. Taking the history of a true Kansas ghost town and recreating its mood through song in its waning days, this album would've raised eyebrows and critical acclaim had it been done a few years earlier. And, in reality, the entire concept may have been too deep for this album. Nonetheless, there are some stand-out tracks, including Ghosts, Stand Beside Me, The Bells of St. James, and I Counted on You. Steve Walsh's voice was never better, and Steve Morse, as usual, shines throughout, although his guitar work is a bit too restrained. For Kansas fans, this is a must album where they return to their roots in an affectionate homage to one of the many little Kansas towns where they first played as a band thirty years ago. It is perhaps their best album from the 1980's."
+230,1,Isle of Dogs,"Okay, Okay, I am a great fan of Patricia Cornwell and most of her books. I was disappointed by this particular one. Ms. Cornwell has been becoming more and more weird with her books. Her earlier ones are much better written with a better plot and more believable characters. If you are a Cornwell reader who loves Kay Scapetta, stay away from this one. No, it wasn't funny. The plot was lousy and the characters......Enough said."
+231,2,Elegant and Simple,"This pedestal is a great buy if you're looking for space saving simple and elegant accent. Thanks, Robert J. F."
+232,1,"I see where this was going, but it didn't make it there","I had high hopes for this album after seeing it reviewed well in a magazine. However, I'm disappointed in it. I don't feel the songs were 'tuned up'; there are too many places where I feel let down by sections that feel rushed. Do note that I generally don't take my politics through music. I'm only here to be entertained. This was was a detractor for me as well."
+233,1,supriseeee !!!!,I haven't had this bracelet for less then a month and I haven't even worn it its been in the lil bag ot came in and I went to put it on yesterday and it was gold ! Lol when I first got it it was silver and over the month it changed lol very odd . Other then that's its a very nice style but its for sure fake and not sterling silver as the seller stated . Its nice for a night out as just to accessorize :-/ not what I wanted it for .
+234,2,Great Historical Book,"I think this biography on Benjaman Franklin was very informative,interesting,and more exciting than the usual historical book. It was easy to read and had some of his famous quotes written on the bottom of the pages. I would recomend this book for kids who are interested in learning more about Ben Franklin or who need more information about him for a school project."
+235,2,Great book!,"This is the story of the world's most notorious crime family. The have it all MONEY, POWER, RESPECT! This book is a page turner it's the story about their fight to stay on top!"
+236,2,L Oreal Night Cream,I like it better than any of the more expensive facial creams. I just wish it came in a larger jar.
+237,1,Poorly Captioned,"I was eager to peruse this book as I admire Brady's work immensely. But I was appalled and shocked at the amateurish nature of the captions, loaded with conjecture and unsubstantiated opinion on behalf of Webb Garrison. Truly a travesty that this book was published in this form as Mathew Brady's photographic documentation of the Civil War ushered in the era of Photojournalism and for it to be so mishandled and misconstrued at the hands of a hack such as Garrison is an unconscionable act of eternal shame for The Lyons Press, the publisher. Who edited this? Who proofread it, and fact checked? As far as I can tell no one fact checked anything that Garrison scribbled in some margins.What should have been a cherished volume in my library will end up down at Half Price books, if they'll take it. Avoid at all costs."
+238,1,Flimsy,"This belt buckle is cheap, but also nearly worthless. The ""C"" portion is single-sided thin metal that bends and cuts, tearing clothing and skin that it rubs against. Get something better than this!"
+239,2,Blu ray please!,"I really enjoy this movie, I haven't read the book, but the storyline in the movie is excellent. I would buy this on blu-ray in a heartbeat if it were to become available. My only fault with the movie is that (in my opinion) the ""overdubbed voice-overs"" (not sure exactly what you call them) toward the end seem a little overbearing."
+240,2,Vintage Morse,"John Thaw is superb in the lead character. This first installment depicts the new relationship between Morse and Sgt. Lewis, and how they come together. In this early episode, Morse is as unorthodox in his approach to solving homicides as he is throughout the series. Sgt. Lewis just begins to get as idea of what his job will be like working (and drinking) with the Chief Inspector."
+241,1,Not as good,"Slipknot is a great overall band. Their first 3 CD's (MFKR, Slipknot, Iowa) were very good, by far Iowa was the best. The new release kinda let me down. It dosnt sound like Slipknot at all, The older Slipknot was alot better recentley their music just sucks. They are becoming to over played and it gets annoying. Some good songs, I like the drum solos but its to original, I give the CD 2 stars"
+242,1,Maybe I just don't get it,"Insubstantial, hollow, immature, synth-realized ""themes"". Light on vocals. Utter waste of time and money."
+243,1,What an awful and amateurish book,Do not buy this book. Instead do what I did and check it out of the library. You will be glad you did because this book reads like something out of a 3 day novel writing contest sponsored by Brittany Murphy. this might be of interest to juveniles but hardly measures up to the constant comparisons to Umberto Eco and even the pop cultch flavour of the year wonderkind Dan Brown. I only gave it one star because there were no half stars. I would give it a half star because I like the cover.
+244,2,"Son's first ""there goes..."" video","My son can't get enough of this video, though he still calls the trucks, ""cars"". Lots of action of vehicles and descriptions. Did not care much for the shot with Dave sleeping on a rockpile and a front-loader with a full bucket of rocks dropping it near him. Planning on purchasing another of these videos..."
+245,1,it's just not very interesting,"After reading ""The Debt to Pleasure"" I was eagerly anticipating Lanchester new book. Well, don't rush out and buy it. This book is boring, trite and mercifully short. The main character, Mr. Phillips, is uninteresting. I never felt any empathy towards him and if the book had been any longer I probably wouldn't have bothered to finish it. Mr. Phillips' mind is on sex a large part of the time, unfortunately, even that's not interesting. There are too many (old) lightbulb jokes ""How many ... does it take ..."" and British jokes which should have been edited out. I wouldn't say the book needed a better editor, it's just not substantial enough to be in print. Read ""The Mezzanine"", now there's a fabulous book about nothing!"
+246,1,I Hate this book!,"I bought this book because I thought it would be funny but I had no idea it was primarily political, conservative views thinly disguised as humor. I think I found most offensive the strips where the coyote pup tells the young human girl that they can now get married because of the MA Supreme Court ruling allowing gay marriage; hardly a fair comparison to equate marriage between an animal and a child to marriage between two adults of the same sex! This book is more of the same all the way through; pro Bush, pro conservative religion, pro war. I'm sorry I wasted my money on it. It isn't even funny, just irritating and offensive. My copy went into the trash."
+247,2,Love it!,"I bought the matching mortar and petsel, so they look nice on the countertop. Garlic is always on hand when you need it!"
+248,1,Waste of a rental fee,"This is probably the worst movie I have ever seen, and I have been known to enjoy some pretty bad movies. I wanted to turn it off, but for some reason, I just kept watching. Afterwards, I was so mad that I wasted my time and money on this piece of c***. I am seriously embarrassed for the people involved in making this movie. It just kept getting worse. There is a post below that mentions the ridiculous elevator scene. I just kept thinking ""How stupid do they think we are?"" I know it's tempting, but please, for your sake, resist the urge to buy or rent this."
+249,2,A Must Have,"This book is a must have if you're traveling through New England. One of the best features is suggested itineraries if you're at a loss where the best spots are to hit and how to get to them in the time frame you're visiting whether that would be one, two weeks or something else. Love the information on lodging. The book breaks it down from very expensive to economical and suggests such things like staying on the north side of a hotel because the south side is facing a high traffic street. This is my second Frommers book. The first I used was in Ireland and the book was with me all the time and we didn't have any trouble finding our way around to sites we wanted to visit. I highly recommend this book!"
+250,2,My favorite album,I love the upbeat feeling in this album. I can listen to it almost any time and can listen to it over and over. I love it!!!!!!!!!!
+251,1,Doesn't protect from cold!,used it while goose hunting in 30 defree weather...feet/toes were cold. had to use toe warmers! will have to get a new pair.
+252,2,Good protection,My son liked the case. It does what it is supposed to; protects the psp. He doesn't even have to take it out; just open it. His only complaint is that the rubber on the inside top lid collects dust on it. He can't remove the rubber piece because then the psp would be loose in the case so he'll live with it.
+253,1,Phased Array Antennas (Wiley Series in Microwave and Optical Engineering) by R. C. Hansen (Purchased on 03/16/2010),"This book has numerous technical errors and inadequate references. The deficiencies apparently stemed from the author's attempt from the role of editor in his previous book on this subject published in the 1960s, which is comprehensive and of high quality, to a single-authored book without adequate research on each subject covered. However, this book does have the merit of bringing up new issues and progresses in phased arrays over the past decade, even though some controversies and inaccuracies were created in the process by the author."
+254,1,"Absymal, ludicrous, annoying, pitiful.","First off, it's Aaron Carter, so you know this will bite big time. But come on. Talk about unrealistic! Tell me, how is a little 11-year-old white boy gonna beat 7'1"" Shaq? (I mean, sure, Shaq can't free throw - or act - or sing - to save his life, but come on.) Well, today's your lucky day, because I'm gonna tell you: he wouldn't. Shaq would just step on him. That's it. But you probably knew that already.Avoid."
+255,2,From slapstick to comedy,"Indeed, why bother buying this release when 28 films by the late Harold Lloyd are just about to be released, complete with seal of approval by Suzanne Lloyd? Well, the antics of the somewhat dated duet Pollard/lloyd are certainly not up to standard with the tightly-scripted, gorgeously-photographed and carefully-preserved features New Line is about to provide us as part of their impressive 7-DVD set, yet this massive offering was obviously conceived as a tribute to the stellar aspect of the comedian career, and the crude beginnings of his bespectacled persona have been carefully ignored. This Kino release shows us how Lloyd evolved from the madness of his post-sennettian style to the more subtle touch of his first three- and four-reelers; as such, and while it is admitted that the box set is indeed indispensable, this is a slice of history, not tampered with, for better and for worse."
+256,1,Sound spoils the Show,"What should have been a wonderful overview of Linda Ronstadt's early career is ruined by poor quality mastering, which makes her gorgeous voice sound like she's singing through a brick wall. Looks like I'll have to fork out again for the Rhino records 2002 best of version which reportedly sounds much better. The same goes for Volume 2."
+257,2,"The Badder, The Better","Rihanna fills a void and provides a great soundtrack for Summer 2007 with ""Good Girl Gone Bad"". The diversity of the CD makes this one of the most interesting collections to come out recently. Dance tracks include the sexy ""Push Up On Me"", the pulsating ""Don't Stop The Music"", and the furious ""Breakin' Dishes"". Mid-tempo cuts include current hit ""Umbrella"", ""Rehab"", and Ne-Yo duet ""Hate That I Love You"". If you need a little reggae-flavor for an island getaway, ""Lemme Get That"" and ""Sell Me Candy"" is here for you. Rihanna is a star who gets better as she gets ""badder"". This CD is recommended."
+258,1,Item fine but $25 shipping and handling was a rip off,This card is fine but $25 shipping and handling put me off this vendor.Have written twice and gotten no reply. Will appeal to Amazon.

+260,1,You get what you pay,"I don't know how anybody can give a positive review for this product. While assembling this product, the rubber hinges actually broke while I was tightening the bolts (all 4 of them). Based on what I observed I am happy that they broke while assembling and not while I was driving. I don't think this is a safe product. The item was returned the day I received it."
+261,1,"Expensive, unwieldy, uncomfortable","I purchase this cot pad to use with the Teton Sports Outfitter XXL cot. The pad is hype. It is huge but has little supportive substance. I would not recommend using it on it's own. I don't recommend buying it at all. The foam compresses to nearly nothing and yields to the least amount of pressure. This means it offers nearly zero cushioning for you while you sleep. It is a very expensive add-on to an expensive cot. It's size renders it useful only in car camping or cotting it at the house. It takes up so much space that I would question the value of it for car camping IF it offered some support. However, since it doesn't provide support it is a moot point. Fellow Amazonians - your money will be better spent elsewhere."
+262,1,not the the,"be forewarned. this is not THE Matt Johnson of THE THE., but a rather less than mediocre matt johnson."
+263,2,Faith and Science Can Be Compatible,"This video has beautiful photography, and the contributors seem to be knowledgable in their fields of science. Even if one doubts the creation of Earth and its inhabitants, both plant and animal, by God; the fact that scientists feel the universe's intricacy will never be explained by just a ""big bang theory"" is compelling. It certainly makes one respectful of the religious point of view."
+264,2,Not quite the title,"This book on the cover seems to say that it will help you learn more HTML and CGI. It does show you some good code but I think this book is more of a reading book then a reference. In the beginning it tells you everything about the web you can think of. There is a lot of information that I did not know, but this book takes you where you have never been. I would recommend this book to the accomplished HTML person with medium CGI experience."
+265,2,Perfect Fire And Control.,"Diatomaceous earth is the perfect ant control It is harmless to humans and pets while killing ants (ours are fire ants!) I still see shrivelled ant corpses in one of the areas where they still enter. Haven't seem any palmetto bugs since I spresd the DE around the edges of the rooms. Palmetto bugs is a euphemistic word foor BIG roaches, common in Florida.The price at Amazon was most satisfactory."
+266,1,Don't believe the hype.,"The only decent thing about ""Wither"" was the concept of the plot -- a fairly interesting idea. Everything else, though, was terrible. The prose was appalling, cliche-riddled garble; the characters flat and vacant; the pacing was confusing and unsophisticated; there was no interesting theme or sense of believability. I happened to re-read King's ""'Salem's Lot"" just prior to ""Wither"" and saw the contrast quite clearly. King writes masterful fiction for and about adults, while Passarella writes clumsy screenplay-that-wants-to-be-fiction for a generation that has no feel for depth or quality."
+267,2,Corruption investigations during Viet Nam,Fantastic book covering a key corruption investigation in the Army during Viet Nam. It is worth reading.
+268,1,Do not buy until you read.....,This is the same work out you get with the weighted balls. This is NOT her new workout program. The belt does come with it but the videos do not use it and in fact there are no instructions at all on how to use it.
+269,1,A disappointment,"I picked up this book because I had so enjoyed Alexandra LaPierre's novel on the same subject. The book had also received some excellent reviews. However, I was really disappointed. First, the language is trite and Artemisia speaks in cliches. I felt like the narrator was speaking to me on a ninth grade level, which I didn't like. I'm amazed that I finished the novel.I think more importantly, though, the character of Artemisia really irritated me. Here is this woman who really triumphed over adversity to be a female painter in a time when women didn't do anything besides birth children. However, she plays the helpless victim throughout the novel, and, rather than foster an environment in which her daugher can make her own decisions, she forces the daughter to paint.The novel is also riddled with historical inaccuracies. After doing some research on Artemisia, these inaccuracies really irked me."
+270,1,Retched Vile,"This movie is popular for one reason-Rob Zombie directed it! That's it! It's not frightening, disturbing, humurous, or slightly entertaining. It's like a cross between Texas Chainsaw massacre and The People Under the Stairs. Rubbish!"
+271,1,A low quality product,This was a worthless purchase. There were small pin holes in various locations throughout the hose so it could not be used effectively. Also had difficulty fitting it over a one and one-half inch connection. Both the hose and the fitting were one and one-half inch items. It ended up in the garbage can. I would not recommend this item to anyone.
+272,1,Possibly the worst book I've ever forced myself to read.,"Being a BIG fan of Candace Bushnell and Sex and the City, I was excited to pick-up Melissa Roth's book. Until ""April"" (Chapter 2). The reason so many readers may find themselves flipping back to see who's who, is because the author never fully develops a single character!!! The women are vapid and shallow because Roth keeps them that way. But the real problem with the book was terminal BOREDOM! I AM in the Entertainment business, I HAVE dated jerks, and my life is laugh-out-loud funny, emotional, and rarely as matter-of-fact as these three women and the author would have you believe. The content was so slow moving and non-consequential, there was nothing to make me turn the page to the next month (chapter)."
+273,2,fun,"fun, can be difficult at times but lots of fun in couch co-op mode. would recommend playing with a friend.campaign is like 5 hours with 2 bonus missions to download for free, so like 6-6 and a half hours of entertainment."
+274,2,Great cargo bar,This is a must have for pickup truck owners. The bar is easy to adjust and with the rubber feet stays firmly in place. The ratchet part is very well made. You can secure this and know for sure that your cargo is not moving. Have had no problems at all.....
+275,1,Believe all the reviews - DON'T buy it,"This alarm clock's features make it almost perfect. Battery backup, automatic time set, dual alarm, CD player, and sleek design. But just like everyone else's, our CD player quit working within a few months. The door wouldn't open, and even after my husband muscled open the door, it still wouldn't play CDs. What a shame to put such a poor-quality CD player in an alarm clock that otherwise has all the features we need."
+276,1,millennium is crap,"i read this book for school, and the only thing i liked about it is that it put me right to sleep every night without fail. i am a very fast reader, ans i only read 36 pages an hour. the author uses the most random vocabulary and the style of writing is so bland it makes me want to rip my eyes out. i am one of three people that magnaged to read the entire thing without passing out. this book made me realize how wonderful textbooks are, such as Spodek or that awful book we read last year. i just thoguht of a nother good use for this book: kindling. it's not even worth recycling. i had fun killing spiders with it. as garfield says, anyone who liked this book should be ""dragged out into the street and shot"" this book causes depression in teenagers, and supports slackers. i ate five extra bags of chocolate chips this summer because of it."
+277,1,Picture is not a good depiction,"The color of the ring was not as pictured, hint of the palest blue. The sizing is a bit smaller than anticipated and it seems that the stone side is more flat instead of round. It probably would have been more flattering to have 5 stones and a more circular appearance.It still stacks and is not that bad for the price"
+278,1,Canon i960 - -Awful -,"This is by far one of the worst purchases I've made...not necessarily Amazon's fault, but not a good printer!! Barely 8 months of mild usage and I have nothing but feed problems....it either does not feed paper or it feeds several sheets at once. Needless to say, I've wasted alot of photo grade paper!! I guess I have an extra boat anchor now."
+279,2,Neat Gadget!,This was a gift for my husband on Christmas. Although he does not travel a lot he has enjoyed using it now and then. Fairly easy to set-up and fun to play with. The only thing I can find fault in is the mileage is not quite accurate.
+280,2,Got what i wanted.,I ordered this through Amazon. And the product was exactly what i expected. it was the cheapest i could find anywhere as well. My girlfriend just loooooves when i wear this cologne. Got it via ground shipping.

Ive been waiting for 3 months for a replacement to arrive they claim its back ordered. Its on a slow boat from China. This coffee maker is JUNK!! it leaks all over the counter, the pot leaks when you pour a cup of coffee, and their customer service department sucks just as bad. I will NEVER buy another product with a DeLonghi name on it!!"

+283,1,Needs a remix,Superior collection of Harlan Howard songs done in Buck's Bakersfield style. The bad news is the awful mix. No bass at all and barely any midrange. For collectors only !
+284,2,Great Product,I purchased a set of Malibu outdoor lights but needed a longer cable - Found this here and was amazed at the cheap price. At first I was scared with it bein cheap that it would be cheap material but I've had the lights since early november and not a problem.
+285,1,NOT Essential For A's,"If you think getting a TI calculator (or any graphing calc.) will help you get higher grades you are absolutely wrong. Having graduated high school, never once using a graphing calculator, I got all A's in math. It's not the calculator that does the work its you. A scientific is a) easier to use and b) all you need.If youre a college student, still it's work ethic, not the calculator that determines your success. But I can understand you now need a graphing calculator, so let me suggest to you the Casio. The Casio calculators are underrated (TIs are overrated x a million) and cheaper and user friendly and equivalent if not better than a TI 83. Don't just get a TI cause everybody else does."
+286,1,What a horrendous movie,"I just wasted my 5 bucks on this horrendous dvd, the worst movie I ever watched. Terrible plot, terrible acting and terrible audio."
+287,2,ecxellent drama series,"This is an incredible story of how these five siblings bind together dealing with life challenges as a team of undonditional love, but also what is in the best interest in each child. I sure hope they do not take as long to releases the next four episode as it has through the rest of these series, First taking almost two years and a year and a half for the other. It is a great series dealing with life issues together as a close sibling family. Plese don't keep making us wait so far in between season."
+288,2,"Really good, but just short of great","I guess most of the hate has to do is this came out in 2005, and fans were promised the second half of this book about a year later, well Dance with Dragons didnt come out until 6 years later. Of the 4 I have read, I would rank this last (3,1,2,4), but it is still a really good read. 4/5. There are some slow parts, but there are some jaw dropping moments and yeah you dont see all the characters you might like, but that is what the next book is for. Ignore the hate of all the fan boys, it is a good read and a must if you enjoyed the first 3 books."
+289,2,Lift Off!,I just love this pen! It is soooooo cool. You push the rocket down and the point to the pen comes out. My kids thought it was so neat that they took it to class on their sharing day.
+290,1,Not really supprising considering the source,"Cornelius Rumstuckle aka J. H. (Herbie) Brennan. co writer of the such gaming books as Sagas of the Demonspawn Aztec Quest, Egyptian Quest, Greek Quest, Roman Quest and Grailquest, amoungst others. So it is no supprise that his current book has such game book as part II, He has written some on occult topics such as An occult history of the world and Magick for Beginners: The Power to Change Your World. But then is anyone realy supprised that such a book is coming from Llewellyn. He has three books currently in print with Llewellyn, they are Magick for Beginners: The Power to Change Your World, Magical I Ching, Time Travel: A New Perspective."
+291,2,Good crate for a small dog,"I have a 3.5lb yorkie, he fits just great in it. I just put a little blanket in the bottom and he's just fine. haven't had any problems with it so far. I would definitly recomend this create for a small dog."
+292,1,Too many typos for me.,The book is more of a pure PDE book and definitely is independent of Matlab.After reading the first 5 chapters I have come across so many typo errors that I have lost count!There are many interesting exercises but not enough detailed solutions showing how to solve them step by step.Overall I would not recommend buying this book.
+293,1,Swim belt Review,Too bulky. Wouldn't buy it again. Prefer using a vest type floatation device. This item is uncomfortable for a child to use.
+294,2,SOA Design Fundementals in multiple levels,"It's a practical guide on defining service characteristics and design principles in multiple levels, from component implementation to application design to enterprise architecture. Very digestive material."
+295,1,Awful is too kind for this steaming heap of garbage,"What an awful book. It's the literary equivalent of going to the dentist only to find that a substitute who doesn't care about you or your teeth has taken over for the week, and whose skill set is decidedly lacking. The book is depressing, plodding and uninspiring. It was a waste of time and money and I literally threw my copy in the garbage lest any friends of mine idly picked it off my bookshelves thinking it might be worth reading. Perhaps the author has done better in her other efforts. If so, bully for her, but this was a decided miss."
+296,2,Mag Lite,Sturdy product like I expected. Light was not at bright as I thought it would be but still very good
+297,2,Logan's Run,"I think that Logan's Run is definitely in the class of those 70's science fiction flicks which we can still enjoy today. Even though the special effects are dated, they do not detract from the movie. Michael York and Jenny Agutter portray their characters well.When I was growing up I enjoyed this movie primarily for its story. As an adult I can appreciate the movie's message at a deeper level."
+298,2,Good - Kind of small and not energy efficient,It's a bit pricey for the size - but overall it looked very nice.It's my fault for not reading that it's incandescent light where it requires one of those small lamp lightbulbs where it didn't deem to fit an energy efficient bulb.
+299,1,"Por favor, escúchenlo a un volumen moderado si lo compran...","Tuve la mala fortuna de que una vecina adquirió este CD y al parecer le gusta muchÃsimo, ya que lo pone a un volúmen lo suficientemente alto como para que yo, quien vivo en otra casa, pueda escucharlo igual.Tras soportar involuntariamente más de un mes este álbum una y otra vez, creo que tengo autoridad suficiente para suplicarles que si alguien cree que ""Corazón PartÃo"" es una gran canción, (¡por favor!) se ponga audifonos. lo disfrutará igual y no torturará a los semejantes a quienes quizás sà les guste una canción donde exista armonÃa y donde la estrofa que escuchas tenga alguna relación con la anterior."
+300,2,10 Little Indians...,"Oh my gosh... This is one of the most thrilling movies I have ever seen. The ending is probably the most unexpected twist in all of Moviedom for ages. I loved it, loved every minute of it."
+301,1,great until it stops working (cheap plastic gear),"I have owned 2 of these blenders. The first one lasted almost 2 years and I was very happy with its performance until the the plastic gear where the blender shaft and the motor connect worn out. I wish I could buy the spare part because otherwise the machine was in perfect condition. What a shame, but as with many other reviewers I decided to buy another one since I though it was only my bad luck. Unfortunately the second one lasted only 3 months under the same type of use. There are many reviewers having this problem. They all love their blender at first until it breaks due to the same reason. What a waste. I would love to buy the spare piece and try to fix it myself. Now I need to pay $10 fee to cuisinart to get mine replaced under warranty."
+302,2,Great for school,"My son uses this at school. It is heavier weight (better quality) than most, and has lasted nine months. More than I can say for anything else he takes to school!"
+303,1,MisleadingTitle,"I bought this book as a refresher. The author goes through the material very quickly. His writing isn't very clear and I'm frustrated by the format of the book -- too much text, not enough examples or summaries. I'm sticking to my old college textbook."
+304,2,A Standing Ovation,"Bravo, Bravo, Bravo!! Oh, how I hated to come to the end of this series. A caution to would-be readers: Do NOT shortchange yourself and skip either of the first two books (Many Lives/Secret Sorrows, and Tales of Passion) - they all flow together seamlessly and offer an indescribable wealth of passion and intellect. Wonderfully written, deeply researched - this trilogy by Ms. Gulland is truly a treasure."
+305,1,Disappointment,What an incredible disappointment! I love Badu. The power and authority she usually sings with was missing here. This CD is boring without any complexity or excitement. I think she phoned this one in.
+306,2,I just want to add...,"to all of the other reviews, yes the book is lovely! I don't know if Amazon will let me post this ""message"", but for all of you who want to find the Pressed Fairy Book, and can't find it, try to find Lady C's Pressed fairy JOURNAL, it's a journal that has about 3/4 of the book printed in it, along with journal pages and the faerie holidays!! It's wonderful too!"
+307,2,This should be your first book to learning 3dsmax 5.,"This book is a great confidence booster and teaches you the basics so that you can create your own art in 3dsmax 5. It is VERY user friendly and the info is clear and useful. If you want complicated, headache inducing tutorials, search else where. To gain a better understanding of 3dsmax, in plain English, buy this book. Read from cover to cover for best results.* Friendly note to 3D egg-heads: This book does not cover scripting."
+308,1,Where is Chris Cornells Song?,Can't really give an honest rating of this collection as i havent purchased it or really listened to it (apart from watching the film). The reason being that Chris Cornells song (you know my name) is missing...i find this incomprehensible as this is a moving and very powerful piece of music that surely should have been included?
+309,1,"Despite stellar cast, movie really sucks.","Oh my. This was bad. This was REALLY bad. How did this get any good reviews? It's so lousy.This movie simply has no point and seems to have no purpose other than to wallow in emotion. 9 distinct wallowing sessions in which women experience severe disappointment. But the ""wallowing"" is painfully melodramatic. A crappy script ruins even good actresses. There was just nowhere for them to go.I'm stunned at the amazing cast. How did they get themselves into such a jam?"
+310,2,"Horns, guitars, and an electric violin, they had it all!","I was casually looking through the rack at the local drug store (sometime in 1970)when I spotted the coolest album cover I'd ever seen. I bought the record for the cover and have never regreted it. Jerry Goodman (in his pre-Mahavisnu Orchestra/ Dixie Dregs days) plays up a rock and roll storm on the electric violin, outshining even his contemparies Papa John Creech (Hot Tuna) and David LaFlamme (It's A Beautiful Day). The rest of the band shines on instrumentation ranging from flute to banjo, all in the same song. From the opening note of Green Slice to the last chord of Unranian Circus the boys from Chicago blaze a trail yet to be followed. If you liked the Al Kooper version of BS&T, the CTA album, and Canadian hornmeisters Lighthouse (One Fine Morning) you will LOVE Dinosaur Swamps. If you buy just one 70's CD this year, make it this one!"
+311,2,this one is good,this is a good movie for all thomas fans!an enjoyable and attention keeper.if you want movie instead of segments this one is good
+312,1,Undecided,"I would not feel good about recommending this product to any of my friends at this time. I know the product says it may take up to 6 weeks to work but...I have been using it for 5 and a half weeks and my skin is broken out worse than ever. It started breaking out the first day I used the product, and in places I don't usually break out (jawline, cheeks). I resolved to give it the full 6 weeks, but have not seen any improvement! Also, the toner runs out after about 5 weeks but there is still plenty of cleanser and lotion. Unless there is significant improvement in the next few days, I will not buy this product again."
+313,2,Goodness in retrospect,"Looking back this album came out during the heyday of southern rock. It fit the bill very well sliding right in with Lynyrd Skynrd, Molly Hatchet and the rest. ""Lonesome Boy From Dixie"" is a very good poster child song of the era. It's a good song but also describes the times. ""In America"" was written in response to President Carter's ineptitude but it is still a good song. ""Legend Of Wooley Swamp"" is the hit on this album and it's good and worth th price if you're wondering."
+314,2,Excellent for Sensitive Skin,Both of my daughters have very sensitive skin. I have never had any problems with irritation since I started using Dreft. It also seems to keep the clothes looking new--which is great when you have to wash their favorite outfit 4 times a week!
+315,1,"He tenido problemas con el Harware, nunca lo pude usar desde que lo compre// I had problems with the hardware. I never used sinc","Hola, desde que compre esta pieza para usarla en la maquina de bordar, nunca la he podido utilizar para copiar imagenes, solo he usado una unidad USB que ha funcionado bien.Hello, since I bought this piece for use in the embroidery machine, I've never been able to use to copy pictures, only I used a USB drive that has worked well."
+316,1,Don't bother,Where's the beef? A very brief travelog with nothing you have not seen before. A total waste of time and money.
+317,1,Harmful Reading,"Exposure to this Orwellian diatribe of connotations and counter-accusations with leave the reader shocked by the sheer ignorant malevolance displayed by Mr. Dubus. By creating a fantasy/horror-riddled dreamscape, Dubus intentionally vies for the audience's approval of the sinister hero, which in this case, is the heart of the Yellow Moon-owl, first described in chapter 3. The coerced symbolism Dubus spews forth is no more tolerable than a dip into Lake Michigan on a cold winter day. Dubus' portrayal of the inept farmer smacks of New York liberalism and processed laughter. Save your money. Mr. Dubus obviously has more than enough."
+318,1,Logitech not the logical choice,"This being my first experience with a web cam, I was not expecting any miracles. What I got was a major disappointment. My review of this camera is largely based on the unecceptable image quality. Familiar with Logitech, I'm surprised at the lack of quality visually speaking. A friend of mine had bought a competitors web cam for about half the price, and after I had a chance to compare similar still shots side by side, I immediatly returned this camera. Sit and fiddle with the minimal image correction options all day long only to end up with an uglier picture then you started off with. Like I said, I'm no web cam expert or anything, but it seems to me the number one criteria for a quality web cam is the image. And that is the area this product severely suffers in. A horrible first experience for sure. Take my advice, do the research, and avoid this camera."
+319,2,I LOVE THIS!,"Most people probably haven't heard of Last Tuesday since they're mostly centered around Central PA, but they're branching out... do your part and buy the CD! This is Christian punk rock classified by them as ""hope rock."" This proves that Christian bands are extremely talented sometimes, and punk rock isn't dead yet. The CD reflects the amount of energy at their live shows which are something you don't want to miss if you can help it. This CD is inspiring and can put me in a good mood all the time. Listen to ""Have a Nice Day"" especially, it just rocks."
+320,2,Let's Rock 'n Roll while We stack 'em Up,"This purchase was one of a few for a first Christmas for our grandson. OK, I am a big fan of Fisher Price from 1973. These looked like a lot of happy, noisy fun for our active little guy. I played with them before I wrapped them. . .yes lots of noise. . .he will like them a lot."
+321,1,Not what you remember,"This CD is awful and my kids hate it. If you are expecting the understandable tunes you remember from childhood -THIS IS NOT IT!! It is much to ""rock"" for the tastes of my children. I intend to file it someplace and try purchasing the other CD's. This one was a HUGE disappointment, particularily after the build up I gave it before we listened to it."
+322,2,"Good book, great ideas.","I don't find the ingredients in most of the recipes hard to find. But I am in Northern California and most things are abundant here. Fish selections vary because of water temps but a comparable fish can be found in the same family.Some of the recipes are really good. This is a book for a more experienced cook. As with most cooking, precise measurements really don't exist. This is no exception.But though I'm not fond of his trash mouth, I love his passion for good, tasty food. If you're into cooking, this is a good book to have."
+323,1,At least 2 person account would be great,This is ridiculous I would not mind if the game had one user online account. After buying the game I thought I would be able to share this game w/ my brother since we pitch in to buy it and there you go on f**** user nice.
+324,2,missing opening theme,Good techno stuff.I don't think anyone has mentioned the missing intro them (micro brain tour). I haven't been able to get any info on this.
+325,2,Excellent,"Not only was the price low, but the receipt was discreet, for those who wish not to make public information their purchases. The shipping was quick. Overall, no complaints here"
+326,2,EcoBags,"I ordered four EcoBags, one of which frayed at a seam when washed. When I related this information to EcoBags, I received an apology via e-mail and within a couple of days received a new bag. This bag withstood the wash test and I am very happy with their bags (which are a very good size) and their prompt response. I would recommend these bags to others."
+327,2,What a Connection!!!,"I LOVED reading Soul Adventures. The stories in the book truly encompass that we are all connected and that time and space are all relative. It was amazing to read how experiences not only in early childhood, but previous lifetimes can effect you in this present moment and effect how you choose to respond to a situation in your life. I love how Ms. Adrienne was able to show so many examples of how people can heal themselves by going within to uncover the stories of their soul. Bravo!!! I would definitely recommend scheduling a healing session with Ms. Adrienne... pronto... experience for yourself how dramatically you can change your life by listening to your soul's adventures..."
+328,2,The whole world in front of her,"Norah Jones seems to have filled a void in the music industry, recalling past female rock singers/songwriters such as Carley Simon and Rickie Lee Jones. There really isn't much that is new here, but Jones does have a style all her own that is very pleasant to see and hear. The music seems to come from within and flow effortlessly outward to a public that appears to have grown jaded with teeny boppers like Britney Spears. While I don't imagine Jones will displace Spears and her ilk, she certainly provides for a refreshing alternative on the airwaves, and hopefully will encourage other young women songwriters to follow suit. ""Come Away With Me,"" would be an apt description of this DVD. It provides for a nice musical flight of fantasy and even a few improvisations, which show that Norah Jones has the whole world in front of her."
+329,2,Out of the Crisis,"This is an absolute must for any manager wishing to set up an effective process and understanded the art of management, it's easy to understand and follow."
+330,1,Ooey Gooey Headache,"Yes, ditto with the other reviewer who describes the vaseline consistency. My daughter does not want to apply it to her lips, as she says it is greasy and yucky. (And she LOVES lip balm.) While making it, the stuff would not wash off my or my daughter's hands. So, we ended up just rubbing it into our skin. I know, gross. The squeeze out flavoring does not squeeze out of the pinhole-sized nozzle opening, as it is thick syrup. I had to pry off the nozzle and use a chopstick to draw it out. My daughter loved doing that with the chopstick and then mixing up the colors/flavors and later decorating the containers with stickers. So because she enjoyed a few steps in the process, I give it 2 stars instead of 1. But, it was REALLY messy and a challenge for adults, not to mention kids."
+331,1,miserable joke of a watch,This watch is a joke! Do not buy it.The face is black with dark silver LCD numerals and no light of any kind.You cannot see it except in extreme bright light and then only at just exactly the right angle. Useless at night or even in average room light.I could only barely see the numbers when I held the watch DIRECTLY under a(like 2 inches away)60 watt light bulb.Sent it back the first day. What a waste.
+332,1,This thing sucks,"We bought this based on other reviews.... it is a waste of money. It teaches you a bunch of crap you don't need to know. Not that some of the things wouldn't be useful later if you want to be truely fluent in Irish, but in the first CD, why are you teaching someone how to say ""God Bless the Work""???? Like that's going to come up in conversation? These cd's really suck. I don't know why they put so much ""useless"" information/sentences/words in there, and stayed away from basic speech so much. This thing is just a mess. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone! It is a total waste of money! BLAH!"
+333,1,worst service ever,"I bought this item because it has high ratings and good reviews but when I received the item it was all broken into pieces in its box and it was just a useless pile of plastic. I always heard good things about amazon and its services but the first time I order something and its just broken and useless and a huge waste of time for me since now they will want me to send it back to them. I know they won't lose anything by losing one customer but I don't expect anything more from such a big corporation. Just the way it is right, few angry customers are just a nuisance for them to be ignored.Anyway if anyone is reading this review just trust me and don't buy this item from amazon or any other item that has to be handled with care."
+334,2,mmmmm.... (eyes closed),"Aebi's vocal style is as original and nuanced as Lacy's reed. 2 rare birds of the same exquisite feather, I can't believe how beautifully they compliment eachother - back in the 70s when they first started working together it sounded amazing (or was it the 60s?) and now on this recent recording it's like a fine wine aged to perfection... just melts in your ears with an aftertaste like heaven."
+335,1,not believable,"Hard to believe THIS is the literary inspiration behind some of the anti-government, racist movements today. Glad I read it though. The writer gives Turner immediate access to all sorts of weapons, chemicals, etc. without giving a plausible explanation for how it was done. Turner is a sociopath and yet we are invited to be interested in his love affair. Turner is incapable of the emotional attributes necessary to form a love interest. This is a very simple minded effort to inspire a small segment of our society. How it has succeeded at all is a mystery."
+336,2,Pretty good for the price,Tried a lot of squeegies along the way. This one is decent. A bit wider than most and works well. The wall holder is a nice holder.
+337,2,Handy enough,"The tab doesn't twist off easily, at least not completely; but twisting does open the package enough, with some spillage. Perhaps I'm just not doing it right, but it looked like it would be easier. Squeeze into mouth and gargle ... not unpleasant tasting, and leaves a slight numbness, though some soreness remains.What can be said? It's a handy way to carry around a salt gargle (with witch hazel and other ingredients) to keep up with gargling treatments for sore throats, with are (at least to me) a pain to mix."
+338,2,There's a reason they call it Great,"Stop being retroactively pissed at your high school freshman English teacher and just admit it: The Great Gatsby is a damn fine novel. This is the third time I've read it (first and third for fun, the second for the aforementioned English teacher, who did indeed manage to suck the joy out of it), and I'm still struck by two things:1) That Daisy Fay is easily the most contemptible female character in literature since Catherine Earnshaw.2) That Jordan Baker's story of how most people (including herself) are ""careless drivers"" truly shaped my worldview growing up. She ain't wrong.Get over the acne flashbacks and give this one another chance."
+339,2,Cheesecake is Not the ONLY Best Thing About this Book!,"I have used this book since the mid-80's and have never been disappointed in any recipe I've tried. In fact, I believe that Mother Wonderful's cheesecake book helped me nab my husband, haha! Seriously, I was on such a baking binge when I met him, he was my guinea pig for each and every cake. My personal favorite is the rum raisin. One recipe that I make every Thanksgiving and Christmas is the Cranberry Nut Torte. It is to die for and quite easy to make, so if you love the tart-sweet taste of cranberry-anything, be sure to try this! In my opinion this is the the best compilation of cheesecake recipes ever assembled, and there are many helpful tips about ingredients, storing, etc., included to help educate you about the subject. Hmmm, I'm getting a craving as I write!"
+340,2,Perfect,"Just what I needed, will easily fit in a backpack, light, and fills the tires fairly quickly. Literally the only negative is the lack of gauge, but you can get by on feel of the tire alone, so not a critical issue."
+341,1,"The Fifth Discipline, audio CD","This product was advertised on the site as the 2006 edition, however the 1994 edition arrived in the mail! It's hard to rate the item because of this..."
+342,1,Don't bother if you'r installing,"Installing Linux and all its modularized parts is deeply confusing. This book does not help in the least, and I don't understand why Caldera would put it on the shelves with a CD in the back.For example, the most important reconfiguration item available is called LISA, and it does not appear in the index."
+343,2,Perfect recipe and prescription for literary satisfaction,"Mama Elena forbids Tita de la Garza to marry her true love Pedro. This, ""recipe"", leads assuredly to adultery and incest. Tita spends her life dispensing superb meals, when not her own breasts, to feed others. The contrast is Tita's half (?) sister who leaves the De La Garza ranch, naked in a horse and face to face with the horse's rider. An excellent translation, that almost automatically and easily folds onto a marvelous movie of the same title"
+344,1,Cheap look and feel,"It looked so cheap I didnt bother giving it. I was going to give it for a charms braclet my wife has since it looks cute, but it looks so cheap in real life that I'll just bin it."
+345,1,P.O.S.,"It's the little annoyances that make me rate it so low. Yes it is full of features, but the constant resetting, the constant one-thing-after-another, has driven me to hate this phone. I bought my 700w Feb 05 when it was $500. I like the smart phone idea, very useful, but with all the bugs mentioned in the other reviews... I would not recommend it. I'm looking for another smart phone."
+346,1,Worst DVD ever made,"The other reviewer says it all. There is literally nothing on this DVD. How to hold the cue and how to make the cue ball go forward, stop, or reverse upon making your shot. Again, nothing about angles, that is where to hit the ball in order to send it on an angle to the pocket. After watching the first drill and the second drill performed on all 15 balls, I fast forwarded thru drill 3 and 4. Then he goes into some trick shots. How about real game situations, even an overview of rules/how to play a couple of variations. You can all laugh when I tell you I paid $25 at the local store for this. Going right into the trash."
+347,2,Must reading for everyone who works!,"Character is a quality issue, too. Integral to every business process, human nature is the greatest shaping force of corporate performance. Insightful lessons of this book promotes a deeper understanding of human nature; and teaches how to positively contribute toward perfecting total organizational quality.Audience:* Working Personnel of all levels, Managers, Union Leaders* Self-Help: Individual and Organizational TrainingReading Advantanges:* Author's 28 years includes Saturn Corps. Launch Team* Exceptional insight into the physical, mental and spiritual aspects of human, organizational character development* Challenges the hot issues of teamwork, diversities of race, gender, position and empowerment"
+348,1,Miserable failure,"After one washing, the venting disk keeps falling out, rendering the bottle useless. The disk is fully dried, stretched, etc., but it just won't stick. I feel cheated and refuse to spend hours to try to repair a cheap piece of plastic."
+349,1,Bring Back Patti!,Madonna's weak attempt at repriseing the role that rightfully belongs to Patti Lupone is pitiful. Antonio Bandaras though easy on the eyes can't live up to mandi Patinkin
+350,2,Excellent book!,"I had read this book a very long time ago. I remembered how I couldn't put it down back then. I was happy to find it again and eager to read it once again! True story, deserted island, murders at sea. Sounds like a Lifetime movie that was made up only its true. I'm enjoying reading it the second time as much as I did the first time!"
+351,1,Average read,"Written by an Australian author, this book does not work well in the US market. Lots of what the author has written can be found in better books like Games Trainers Play and so on. It is pitched very low and doesn't cater for the sophisticated learning specialist. Buy something else."
+352,2,Not for everyone - not to be missed,"Fat Pizza is a politically incorrect absolutelly hilarous slice of modern day Australian humour. It is quite foreign to the American style but then so was Benny Hill and Monty Python in days gone by. If you can drag your prejudices past seemingly broad jokes it is full of life and joy and wit. It is destined to sink like a stone as a fish out of water - but its well worth a look if you have an open mind, a sense of curiousity, an innocent sense of humour, and a spare slice of cash."
+353,1,where are my cheap sunglasses,the glasses are taking forever! they are already about a week late so...I am just going to buy a good pair of sunglasses because they will probably get here before these sunglasses do if they even get here..
+354,2,I love this flash,"This flash is great. I have used it for over a year now and find it to be well made and smart. I say smart because it is very accurate when matched up against my Canon SLR. I have created a small studio in my home and use additional ""always on"" lighting but still use the flash when I need a certain effect. The head swivels 180 degrees and straight up making it great for bouncing. It is worth the price for a quality product."
+355,1,An unrealistic life,"The first half of the book has no bearing for the ""common folk"". It reads like a giggly high student who just became a cheerleader, and we're past that stage of life. She uses no tact or class in describing her husband's riches, her high-priced tastes, and her vanity. The business plugs are tacky as well.It may appeal to those longing for their lost youth; but for those of us who have real lives and better things to do with our life besides center it around money, expensive food, and looks, it's a dud.Other books are out there that describe the ""Before and After"" of WLS in realistic terms, making life applications that make you a better person inside. No matter how many pounds we lose, we will never stay young. My hope is that others will really do something of importance...with purpose and meaning, when given their new chance at life."
+356,1,Disappointed,"I had high hopes for an interesting and different film, but I was disappointed. It is different, but unfortunately boring. There are some aspects to the artwork that are unique (shadows have fun treatments) but thats about it. Otherwise, the artwork is a let down. The eyes on the main character (Lain) were a window to nothing and she really wasn't endearing. It was very slow and not a ""ghost story"". Maybe the next few layers get more excitng, but I'm sure the anime doesn't get better."
+357,2,Matte black nail polish by orly.,I bought this nail polish for my girl friend a week or so ago and she LOVES it! I previously spent $15.00 on a matte top coat from sephora and it was horrid!It's so matte it resembles a chalk board it's perfect!
+358,2,MC Beaton just fab.,MC Beaton is one of my favourite authors and does a wonderful job with all her Regency novels. The Poor Relation books are amount her funniest and I just wish there were more to read.
+359,1,Great Advertisement - poor book,"This book covers a lot of the fundamental basics that other books contain, but the recurring theme throughout is, ""If you really want to learn how the market works you should subscribe to my newsletter"".I don't know if the Investor's Business Daily is any good, but certainly the credibility of the author is damaged in my eyes... IBD should have paid me to read this extended advertisement, rather than the other way around."
+360,2,A Wonderful New Twist on Old Favorites,"Diane Phillips's Pot Pies are the perfect solution to comfort food that is new and different - and at the same time very familiar and comforting. If you ever get a chance to attend a cooking class with her, DO IT! In addition to observing how easily the recipes go together and tasting how wonderful they are, you'll get tons of variations on each recipe's theme. Like ""The Perfect Mix,"" I know this cookbook will become a standard in my kitchen."
+361,2,Peaceful,"The flute music is very peaceful. Sometimes flute music can sound dissonant or have quick & sharp note changes, but this CD set is meditative without any awkward moments. The flute flows like a river: with slowly changing notes and simplicity. It is like a soaring bird catching an air stream. I especially like listening to this music during shiatsu (finger pressure medicine) or a good massage."
+362,1,Somethings Can't Be Reviewed Quickly,It's a light bulb. It worked when I installed it. Reviewed so Amazon will stop hounding me for a review.If it lasts 3 years it's a five star. If it lasts 2 years it's a three star. If it lasts less than that it's a one star. TBD.I've said the same thing on three other reviews of light bulbs.UPDATE: The bulb burned out after two months of use. I've contacted the seller and will let you know how I'm treated. For now I can give this only one star.
+363,1,For the first two months....,"For the first two months this headset is just what the doctor ordered. However, after two months (12 hour daily use) you will find it disconnects itself from your phone, and then eventually it will not turn on if you happen to have it off nor will it turn off if you happen to have it on. I have tried this same headset five *5* times. Now 500 dollars later over the past year, I have decided to blackball this product. The other day I bought the Voyager Pro for 89.99 at Best Buy. I will wait to write a review, but for now it is working well and in fact, it feels better on my ear than the 510 ever did."
+364,1,Gutless music from the 1970s,"This is the type of CD which gives the 1970s such a bad name in music- gutless, no soul, performed by a former teenybopper pop star who belongs with the Carpenters, Bread, and Sajid Khan, to name a few other no-talent ""stars""."
+365,1,The band sux,I love the watch although the self winding feature causes some accuracy problems. A few minutes a week fast. The real disppointment is the band. Most of its gold tone has rubbbed off with normal wear. Whats up with that? And to make matters worse a replacement band has been impossible to find even at Seiko certified jewelers. I guess the lesson here is stay away from cheap gold tone bands.
+366,2,What fun to watch Gene and Judy!!!,"May not be the best of their films. But what a joy to watch. Judy steals every minute from Mr. Kelly. Even when they are dancing. Love the dance they do in the barn. Fun and makes you feel good movie. Garland looks great in the film, even when she is heavier. In fact, she looks so much healthier in those scenes. Great movie!!"
+367,2,A beautiful story about strength and love,"Undressing mercy is about Mercy who is an assistant art director who two years before was raped by a friend. Since the rape Mercy has done all she could to rebuild her life, to be a strong independent woman in all areas except in her personal life. Till one Day she meets Shamus a sexy artist that she is signing on to show his work in her gallery. While working on and signing the contract Shamus lets her know that he needs one more model for his last sculpture and Mercy agree to get who ever he wants. Right after both contracts are signed Shamus tells Mercy that she is the model he wants. This was a beautiful story about moving on from a tragedy and learning to trust someone enough to fall in love. I loved reading about Mercy and Shamus's interaction and the care they had for each other. The only this that would have made this better was if we could have gotten a more solid hea."
+368,2,A natural singer,"Dana Land has an unique voice that encompasses the best of jazz singers now and then. Dana's ""on stage"" technique is first class and she knows how to communicate with her audience."
+369,1,Nearly entirely void of emotion!,"Imagine a 416 page novel without emotion. Sure there's sex, but a true lack of people caring for people, which is unrealistic among African-Americans."
+370,2,A Great CD.,"I've long admired Split Enz/Crowded House/Neil + Tim Finn, and it's hard to pick one cd to review without reviewing them all. Temple of Low Men is a classic. Of the four Crowded House cds this one has 10 solid tracks with no filler and no excess. Their debut is great, but I think Temple of Low Men moved Crowded House out of the pop spotlight and into a more mature band. The debut is a rougher, less honed effort than Temple is. Temple is also better than Woodface in that it's shorter and more consistent. It's also better than Together Alone for the same reasons--shorter, more consistent songcraft. All of Crowded Houses cds are great, but Temple of Low Men with songs like ""Into Temptation"", ""I Feel Possessed"", ""When You Come"", ""Kill Eye"", ""Better Be Home Soon"", ""Love This Life"", ""Mansion in the Slums"", ""Never Be the Same"" and ""Sister Madly"" show that they can make a classic cd. This is a must have for any rock collector."
+371,2,An Easy Read; It's implementing the guidelines that's tough,"Clear, simple, easy-to-read style. Many of the steps are obvious in retrospect. The book merely raises your awareness of the steps so you're more likely to use them"
+372,2,Worth purchasing for interesting photographs of Tallahassee,Worth purchasing for interesting photographs of Tallahassee and thus Florida's capital.
+373,2,read it,"this was a skathic book, although it wasnt too exiting i could never seem to put it down. so get this book and read the 2 after it also...Dragonsong is about this girl named menolly who is forbidden to play music by her parents(who don't seem to care about her at all) . Menolly, discouraged, leaves half circle hold and rediscovers the legendary fire lizards and impresses them with her music who help to save her world."
+374,2,Dont call me baby,Hey whats up this is Riddles here in Northern Cali givin alittle shopping advice for all you netheads out there who are shoppin on AmAzOn.com. If you have not heard this song then I implore you to call your nearest radio station and have them play this song. Don't call me baby is making us ravers tear up the dance floor. This has to be one of the best tracks that has come out this year. Its like Cher's Believe but better and in a different style. This song will bridge the iternational gap between the US of A and Astralia. So Dont' call me baby
+375,2,A Great Kickstart for developing your Trading System,"Trade Your Way To Financial Freedom is the best book I have ever read on an introduction for helping a person find out and develop a stock market trading strategy and system.This book brings to light the #1 Trading Systems Rule: You will not be successful using any stock market trading system, unless you know something about yourself.Defining your objectives is probably the most important part of developing a strategy for stock investing. Until you know where you want to go, you can never get there. As a result, a major portion of the time you spend in developing a trading system, should be in terms of developing objectives.In his book, Trade Your Way To Financial Freedom, Van K. Tharp lays out a number of questions that you, as a stock market trader should ask yourself.Definitely a highly recommended read!"
+376,1,Very pleased so far--UPDATED; NOT PLEASED,"I've had these bulbs installed above my tortoise enclosures for about two weeks now. They are much brighter than the Exo Terra lights I had previously. This is my first attempt at using Zoo Med lights and I like them so far. My tortoises seem to enjoy basking under them as well. Right now I have them in a normal inustrial clamp style lamp from a big box store. However, I will be buying theZoo Med Combo Deep Dome Dual Lamp Fixturefor theZoo Med ReptiCare Ceramic Infrared Heat Emitter 150 WattsI have.Update 10/29/12: After less than 4 months of having these lights on a 12-hour daily timer they have both burnt out. I've never had a reptile light last so short of time. I would not recommend this light. I will be order two of these:Exo Terra Repti-Glo 10.0 Compact Fluorescent Desert Terrarium Lamp, 26-Watt. It only merrits 1 star and that would be soley based on it's price point."
+377,1,Old Lexmark cartridges w/ new stickers - they didn't work.,Not a drop from either the color or black and white - Huge waste of money and time.
+378,2,AMAZING,Bounce Dryer Sheets are the best dryer sheets. The smell alone makes our home smell amazing! I would definitely recommend these over any other dryer sheet!
+379,2,Nice Bedroom set,"This compact TV from RCA is perfect for the bedroom where typically you don't want a big huge TV overpowering the overall design and making your bedroom look like a drive-in movie.Each set includes a NITEglo Backlit Remote, so you can easily locate the buttons on the remote, even with the lights off. Each also features a quick and easy-to-program Sleep Timer Button. So when you're fast asleep, so is your TV."
+380,2,classics,"House of Seven Gables was mandatory reading in high school. I have been out of school for many years and have been reading the ""classics"" again. I am enjoying them so much. I will be adding this to my Grandchildren's library and who knows someday they may enjoy these books as much as I have. pb"
+381,1,Disappointing - Very Topical,"I'm not a big romance reader, but this one seems like it would appeal to that crowd. Very fairy tale, even with author's attempts to set it in everyday society. The plot lines are pretty far-fetched and the Cinderella outcomes are just too unbelieveable. What world-famous movie star gives a darn about anyone they happen to meet at a spa? It was a tad embarassing as the trade paper look of the book fooled me and I was responsible for my book club considering it - then choosing it! This is far from being fiction worth discussing at a book club meeting - much more of a beach book."
+382,2,Wow,"I loved this book. I couldn't put it down and about half-way through it took such a turn and became the most amazing story of love, loyalty, and the happiness it brings. Tears at your heart for Shura and Tania."
+383,2,buen cover,"entrega rápida y a un precio adecuado. funciona perfectamente en mis rally 4000, da un mejor aspecto y las protege de los objetos"
+384,2,Metallic Flip Flop,"When I first saw the flip flop, I was a little hesitant to purchase it because I thought it was too pricey for a simple sandle. However, when I received them, I instantly fell in love. These flip flops are so comfortable and convenient that I am going to purchase another pair. The only thing I didn't like about them was that the color was a little different than the picture. Nevertheless, I was still able to work with them. I would definately recommend this sandle."
+385,2,GREAT BOOK... Actually quite creepy in a way,"This is a great book. Never hearing oF Marueen Dowd, I picked the book up just on its title, Once I started reading it I havent been able to put it down(well except for now to write this review). Im utterly amazed, that if infact these are real collums that were assembled to form a anthology, and if she didnt edit the chapters and they are indeed the way they appeared in the papper, it utterly striking to me than on how accurate Marueen has potrayed the events leading up to now... Was anyone in the white house actually reading these pieces while they were orginally published, tham it stupidfy's(sp?) me why things have gotten as out of control as they are now... W. is very scary man, it amazes me that a c student can become president (as W. has so amazingly said).... hmm what an aspiration to look up to...."
+386,1,Dubwar - 'Pain' (Earche Records) 2 1/2 stars,"Heard this band has had some success in Europe,so I assume they're trying for an American fan base.Their sound is somewhat complex.They combine funk,metal,punk and hip-hop.Didn't really do all THAT much for me.A couple of tracks I thought were 'okay' were ""Mental"",""Respected"" and the heavy-duty ""Spiritual Warfare"".If you're into the likes Fishbone,Bad Brains and Living Colour,you'll most likely get more out of this CD than I did."
+387,2,Middle of the Pack,"Not one of Robert Earl's best, but certainly not one of the worst. One of those CDs where you really like a few of the songs (Snowin' on Raton, Going Nowhere Blues, Wild Wind), some are worth listening to, and a few are just not really necessary (re-make of ""Road"" with bad singing). Worth buying if you REALLY dig REK, but would not recommend if you are looking for a starting point. For that I would purchase West Textures, Gringo Honeymoon for a start. Those are A+ albums."
+388,1,Not suitable for people with functional cremasters,"Go to www.cremaster.net and download the trailer for the full cremaster cycle. . . . then realize how awesome it looks and how much this dvd sucks. I was wondering where the movie was on this DVD, but then realized you only get a 30 minute clip and can watch lots of alternat shots of the same stuff. The minute long trailer on the website is SOOOOO much better.Highlight: Camera Movement is kool when it moves all slow and stuff."
+389,1,Horrible,I am usually a big fan of Woody Harelson. But this movie was a complete waste of time and money. Dont make my mistake of renting this movie.
+390,2,Wonderful DVD,"We bought this DVD for two of our daughters for Christmas. They loved it. They were laughing so much at Quack, that it was hard not to laugh with them. I really like the way the shows are written, it presents the issues from a childs view which really helps them understand how things work and what causes things to happen. This DVD along with the other Peep and the Big Wide World DVD's are a wonderful and entertaining way to teach young children about science and the world around them."
+391,2,Great Read,Ive always been a Lance Armstrong fan and this is a great book telling of his story before his fame and through his second Tour win. Its a good read and a good story.
+392,2,Awesome Water Bottle,"I love this water bottle. It is actually the second one I have purchased. There is nothing wrong with the first one, I just have a bad habit of leaving it at work. My two favorite aspects of this water bottle are that it keeps my water cold all day and it doesn't sweat. It also does not contain BPA."
+393,2,Nice little gun!,"It shoots around 300fps, looks a little funny with the bi-colors but to save around $6 I don't mind. Feels nice and heavy, fits the hand well. My only real issue is the secondary ""safety"" system, it has a rear trigger block at the back of the gun right under the fo-hammer. It still fires good but is annoying sometimes. All and all Great gun for the price and I'd buy it again."
+394,2,Hidden Dangers of the Rainbow,"This book is the best book on the dangers of the New Age Movement. This subject was discovered by Constance Cumbey, and discussed thoroughly. You will be impressed with all the information regarding the New Age Movement that Constance Cumbey writes about."
+395,2,Excellent for working out in the gym or running!,"okay got this belt because I can't do the whole armband thing, it gets in the way during pressing and pulling movements in the gym and just doesnt feel right doing curls, enter the mp3 belt (I was a cd belt guy before as well), one size fits all. I don't even have an Ipod, I put my san disk mp3 player in here for the free weights, and zmate mp3 player (cheap free one i got) for running. If you have a small cellphone, it will also fit in the belt. There are two compartments, so you can hold extra batteries, id card, change, cell as stated, extra headphones, whatever. Totally reccommend this one for serious trainers."
+396,1,Repeat that please!,"I thought I was careful to read reviews. After purchasing 3 of DR. Dunbar's book, I find them to all say the same thing. If you have one, you wouldn't need the other two. What if I have a full grown dog? Is the training different? I found a book that beats them all. Check out Jean Donaldson's book.Train Your Dog Like a ProNo stories. Good for any age dog. Video with it. All good,simplistic directions, using rewards and sometimes a clicker. Achievable! Positive.Affordable."
+397,1,Stay away from this dog,I cannot warn you enough to NOT buy this system. It only includes one rear speaker although Amazon's description says it comes with two. It does not have any outputs to connect to your TV so you're only limited to having surround sound when watching DVDs (and when listening to the the built in radio tuner that didn't work for me at all).There weren't any reviews on this page when I just bought this a week ago and I wish I didn't break my own rule of always reading reviews on a product before buying it! Don't make the same mistake that I did - you can get a lot more bang for your buck with other systems (I ended up picking up a Yamaha YHT-160 and I love it!)
+398,1,"rip very easly, no support",i put these gloves on and threw a few punches maybe 8 or 10 on the bag and when i took them off the thread from the finger area came apart an the middle finger was torn... i also hurt my wrist because there is zero support.. these gloves just look nice they are bad for training.
+399,1,A Pale Shadow of Lonesome Dove,"For true fans of Lonesome Dove and its inspiring and unforgettable characters Augustus McRae and Woodrow Call, this novel will be a major disappointment. If you prefer to read about Call and Gus as a couple of cardboard cut-out buffoons off on a series of preposterous and hardly believable adventures, rather than the flawed but noble (and fully developed) characters of ""Lonesome Dove"", then go ahead and buy this book. But be prepared - even if you don't mind the lack of character development, the book has essentially no plot, and is just a sequence of disjointed events. Overall, a huge step backward by a writer who wrote what I and many others believe is one of the great American novels of the 20th century. I'm not sure why he bothered with this book, but I certainly wish he had done a better job."
+400,2,What a find for a chornic pain sufferer!,"After over 15 years managing my chronic pain, finally a book that clearly and concisely addresses current complimentary modalities of treatment.Dr. Dillard continually hits the nail on the head with the inforamtion he shares with his readers. This is the first book that I've read that really describes pain and how it works so that you can understand the process and how it may be interrupted and/or stopped for good.His advice in evaluating practitioners is very useful as well as information on diet and supplements that are most effective for different kinds of pain.I heartily recommend this book to anyone who suffers from chronic pain or anyone who has a loved one and wants to understand better how they may assist them."
+401,2,Collat-a-kick-ass,"This movie is awesome, Tom Cruise's best! The special features disk is equally as interesting. Amazon shipped my order lickety split!"
+402,1,Caver Headlamps,The battery type is not very common. Cavers require 3 sources of light. Standardization of battery types enteres into this. I did not notice the battery type when it was purchased.
+403,2,Good Summer Read,"Certainly not a masterpiece of literature. The plot is weak, but good for those lazy days of summer when you're looking for something that's quick, easy, and fun to read."
+404,2,A Mechanical Engineer's Review of the ZTR2560,"As a mechanical engineer, my primary concern when first seeing a brochure for the Swisher ZTR2560 was the stamped steel frame as opposed to a frame welded up from structural tubing as featured in other mowers on the market. After seeing the mower in person at a local dealer, I needn't have worried. This machine has a frame stamped from heavy gage steel and has all of the strength and ridgity one could expect from a welded tubing frame.The engine and hydraulic drive units are from well known manufacturers and the build quality is excellent. The mower arrived at my door in a well designed shipping crate that fully protected it duriing shipping and it was full of oil and ready to go upon arrival. All I had to do was put gasoline in the tanks and it started right up.This machine is everything I expected and more and I am completely satisfied with my purshase."
+405,1,I would pass,"The book began as very promising, but ended in an unenjoyable way. The book has some jokes and high points. But near the end it gets a little rushed and does not make sense. I feel that the book was an overall waste of my time. I would not read the book again."
+406,1,Problem for public use,"We first purchased these staplers for a busy academic library for our patrons' use. The first year they were terrific. This past year, every single stapler broke by the third day of use. The loading device has a small plastic nub that is critical for the proper functioning of the stapler. That nub broke in every single stapler. We duck-taped the loader and got more mileage from each stapler that way but the whole situation was very difficult. It is an example of a great product that went wrong through a cheapened manufacturing process. This might be ok for your desk, but for public or heavy duty use, avoid it."
+407,2,Jack is great,"Jack is the kind of movie that will make you remember how much fun it was to be a child, and interestingly enough, it will also remind you how difficult it was to fit in and become friends with the other children. Robin Williams plays an excellent role in this film. His character is totally believable. Just imagine what would happen if a 40-year old man tried going back to school with children? The way the children responded to it would probably be the same response if such an incident were to happen in real life. You will love this movie, especially if you're an adult who loves movies that are both funny and contain good drama."
+408,2,This particular set of the John Denver Collection,"This particual set of the John Denver Collection is the best one ever. Why? Because it's complete...having songs that other so-called complete collections do not have. The audio is first class, not like some of garbel that others have that are hard to hear distinct lyrics. I love this set."
+409,2,EXCELLENT,PRODUCT WORKED AS ADVERTISED. IT HELPED TO GUARD THE PLANTS. INSECTICIDE STUCK TO LEAVES WITHOUT ANY HARM TO PLANTS AND CROPS
+410,1,pos died after 7 mths,"i bought it from amazon, in the process to see if the seller would warranty this. Bought it in 11/1/2010 and just found out this is a 2006 model ha ha, no warranty thru clarion. installed it in my glove box on my rhino and 7 mths later just quit working. you decide"
+411,2,"Delightful, Delicous, EASY!!!",I just bought this cookbook after a friend's recommendation. A novel concept! The book is divided into 3 flip sections...so you can open it up and BAM! you've got a great dinner menu. The instructions are so easy to follow and the author gives suggestions on which dishes to pair together. I love it!
+412,1,Not the Pratchett of Discworld,"First, I think Terry Pratchett is a masterful writer. Second, cat fanciers are boring when enraptured by the small furry pests despite being masterful writers. This is no Discworld, I did not find it entertaining enough to bother to read the whole thing. Ansel Adams probably would bore you with photos of his kids. Speilburg would probably bore you with his home movies."
+413,2,in love with them again,one of the best albums i got.... and now are streamed on my iphone 5 with amazon cloudand it only costed me 1.99 (when it was on sale)
+414,1,"If You're Depressed, Listen to this CD","I am an avid fan of DMB (love Crash, Under the Table & Dreaming, and Before These Crowded Streets). However, this CD is so gloomy that it's hard to listen to. There are hardly any upbeat songs, and many of the slower songs sound alike. I heard that Dave Matthews was going through a depression when the band recorded this, and it obviously shows. Stick with the above mentioned if you are new to DMB. I strongly advise you not to purchase this mundane CD."
+415,1,2011,"The stove looked used upon arrival as it had brown residue covering up the screw on the very middle of the burner unit. After filling the stove with fuel and following directions on how to prime the burner unit it was obvious that the stove wasn't going to light as no pressue was building. I'll be returning the item and hope that it will be replaced with a brand-new Coleman Exponent Stove this time, not a re-cycled previously used stove."
+416,2,Fabulous and beautiful!,"I read this book for a mother-daughter book group. I, being the daughter, was unsure about this book, that is, until I read the first page. I was bubbling with excitement when I discussed this book with the group, and then, low and behold! i was stunned when one of the group members said that she knew Esther Hautzig personally, and that we were going to meet her. Esther Hautzig herself is a wonderful person, and her story of her life in Siberia is the tops."
+417,1,Doesn't last long...,"While it lasts, this is a very good steamer. However, after only about 4 months of less than weekly use, one of the three soldered support posts simply came off in my dishwasher.Were it not for the evident shoddiness of its construction, I would rate this item higher. As it is, I am left with no recourse but to discard it (it's not worth the time and effort to try and return). I can only hope to find a better quality, similar item or buy a more expensive, dedicated steamer."
+418,2,Better than expected,"Lincoln has been one of my heroes my entire life and I was curious to read this book for a perspective written much closer in time to his life than most things I've read. There were times near the beginning where the author's admiration for Lincoln seemed to destroy any objectivity, but it improved and there were a number of wonderful nuggets along the way including some great quotes that I hadn't seen before.Recommended for anyone who doesn't know Lincoln or is looking to become re-acquainted."
+419,2,We love this electronic cat diary!,"My 8 yr old daughter absolutely loves this. She is a Littlest Pet Shop fanatic, admittedly, but this diary is really cute. It comes with games and they can take care of their pet. She's already asking for the dog diary. She and her friends take them to school (probably not such a good idea!)."
+420,1,"Avoid if (1) you know C, or (2) you want something thoughtful!","In general, this gets high marks from most reviewers, but I did not like it. I think the reason is that I have been a fairly competent C programmer for many years. So half the book was telling me things I already knew (what is a++ etc). Even worse, the other half had an elementary viewpoint. It was intended to help you rote learn mindlessly.As I read about the language features I did not know, many obvious questions occurred (Why on earth would anyone use this apparently kludgy and inefficient NSNumber class? How does init differ from a C++ constructor?). But there was no intelligent discussion of such issues, you were left to figure it out for yourself.There were also too many minor typos in the code examples."
+421,1,Awful Scale,In two minutes it flucuated over 5 pounds. Don't waste your money. The 11$ Sunbeam dial scale is more accurate!
+422,2,a top pick!,"TOPS problem decks are a top pick at [...]With this terrific selection of problems, you can cover a lot of the concepts typically presented in second grade or use it as a supplement! Kids love to pull out a stiff card from the deck and solve the problem on it. Moving the card to the back of the deck is a tangible sign of progress. They'll be eager to try the next one! The cards are expensive, but worth the price. I have friends who won't part with them even though their kids have outgrown them."
+423,2,R&R Greats,"Anyone who put money in a jukebox back in the good olddays will enjoy this, only better, for not only do youget the music, you get to watch the singers perform onyour screen. My favorite was Da Doo Ron Ron by the Crystals.It was back in the '60's and still is. There is alsomusic by the Dixie Cups, Mary Wells, and the Platters.If this was your era, you won't be disappointed withthis DVD. It comes highly recommended."
+424,1,One of the worst Video games ever created on a console,"Two words can describe this garbage.....it sucks..I won't even go to detail all I will say is not only is the gameplay glitched up and horrible to do especially how to controll drake, but the story is just plain stupid. Gamer no how doesn't know what he's talking aboutGameplay is just plain awfulMusic...............I'm not even gonna go thereThe controls is just plain awfulI have to give it a 1 out of 5...Hell I wish I could give it -5 stars but I can'tWHAT EVER YOU DO DO NOT BUY THIS GAME!!!"
+425,2,the cats meow,I am a finish carpenter who does not work well with others. Before I ordered the 3rd hand product I always had to pay someone to help me hang crown mold.The 3rd hand set of 4 cost about the same as I would have to pay someone to help me 1 day.The product actually holds crown mold right where you want it to. It is excellent for making splices on long walls and with special order millwork where you often get short lengths.I ordered this this spring after looking at it at amazon for years. You combine this with a walkboard or 2 and the results are amazing. It takes a little practice but the end results are worth it. I always thought that it probably would not work as well as it says but I was wrong. I should have ordered it the first time I saw it.
+426,2,A good beach read,"Meridon is the third and last book in a 3-book series about the Lacey women who struggle to own/manage their family estate, called Wideacre, in a time when female children did not inherit any ownership rights of their family property. All three books in this series are enjoyable, and Phillippa Gregory adds period details that give you insight into life in England at that time. This book was my least favorite out of the three, partly because some of the language and settings were repeated from the first two books, and also because Meridon's life as a gypsy didn't seem quite as believable as the stories in the first two novels. Meridon was still an interesting conclusion to the series as I was interested to see if the women in the Lacey family ever gained control of their estate."
+427,1,Disappointing toy,"I bought this product for my 18 month old child. Everytime that the ball was thrown at the hoop, the hoop would fall off. This caused my child to say ""oh oh"" as if they had done something wrong. I had to return the toy after only three days since my child would not play with it. I understand the safety concerns posed by a fixed hoop for a young child, however, a hoop that does not stay in place is also quite disappointing to a child.thank you."
+428,1,Some good advice hidden amongst the muck,"There are some decent ideas in this book, but it is buried amongst a lot of misguided conceptions about childhood and very little in-depth research. In fact, most of Rosemond's theories are based on how he survived his childhood, which isn't one I'd like to model (the way his grandmother and mother raised him is not impressive). Because he turned out OK, he suggests all parents ignore their children, put themselves first, and only buy toys that were made in the 1950s. Please! If you can get past his lack of passion for children, there are some morsels that make sense, such as: a strong marriage forms the basis of a strong family life, so don't ignore your partner once you have kids. I prefer authors and experts who base their ""expertise"" on a few more facts (he'll quote one study and act like that makes his viewpoint absolute). If you want great practical advise from someone who seems to really love children, read Kid Cooperation by Elizabeth Pantley."
+429,1,make up??? oh my god!!!!,"this album makes me sick. if you think the cover is bad, wait till you hear the music!!! especially the food songs!!! this album appeared after (ugh) Can't Stop The Music and this is just plain sad. they should of just gone away!!! but no...they have to come back to a world that no longer likes disco, with a new IMAGE!!! the new image looks like a cross between a Shakespeare character and a pimp. and all that face paint!!! oh yeah... the music. 5'O clock in the morning is ok. but the rest??? blech! Big Mac? Jungle City? Diet? Fireman? Food Fight? i guess they lacked all the top-notch producers and went to writing their own songs. even if your a village people fan, don't get it. if you are looking for something really stupid and you need a laugh. go for it."
+430,1,How to ruin your wii remote for the low price of $10,"Our family received one of this for Christmas. It seemed like a good combination of fit and function. However, when the wii remote was inserted in the carrier, one of the foam strips inside the carrier stuck to the infrared window. It has been impossible to remove this adhesive, and now the wii remote no longer works correctly. The foam strips are placed in such a way that there is no possible way to put the remote in without having the foam rub up against (and therefore possibly stick to) the infrared window.So even after this, if you still consider purchasing this item, be aware that you cannot use the remote to navigate any of the wii menus while it is inside the carrier. Based on the way the carrier is made, it would probably be only a matter of time before one of the foam strips broke off."
+431,2,Parade of FUN,"What can i say this cd is awsome. If you are a serious metal fan buy this cd its worth every cent. i have been a zao fan for a long time now and their music keeps getting better and better. pretty much every song on this cd is great, you will not be let down. so do yourself a favor and buy parade of chaos."
+432,1,horrible record!,"So alright, some hack like me telling you this album sucks isn't gonna prove it right? Well go just about anywhere on the net, (punknews.org for example), find user comments about An Angle and you will see too that everyone agrees this band sucks pretty bad. I was unfortunate enough to see their live show and I must say it is worse than the record. Everyone that plays in the band seems to be acting way cooler than they really are. Bright Eyes rip off? Hell Yes! But even with that aside, this is really just pretentious crap, I mean... hell! Look at the record cover, you can tell they think they're way too cool! Don't waste your money kiddos! This cd is good for target practice, if you want to buy some funny music, go get a Wesley Willis or even a damn Weird Al CD or something!Ryan"
+433,1,Really? $100.00?,"Is that $100.00 price tag a typo?The one star rating is for the absurd price tag.The actual event was fantastic. Bon Jovi kicked booty, Cinderella was great....fantastic concert.$100.00? For a DVD?No fooling?Wow.I'll buy the video."
+434,2,better than the last one!,"I read He's Just Not That Into You, which I thought was ok but not mind-blowing in any way.It's Called a Breakup Because It's Broken is far exceeded my expectations. I read it cover to cover in one sitting and felt an immediate surge of empowerment. The tone of the book is kind and supportive, yet firm. It can be hard to read at times because I felt, as I'm sure other readers have too, that I recognize my thoughts, reactions, and feelings in the stories of the women in the book. It's kind of shocking to see how so many people share these same painful experiences. But I think the valuable messages of the book is this: if one person thinks a relationship is over, what the hell are you trying to save? If one person doesn't think a relationship is worth fixing, then there IS no relationship worth fixing. And Greg urges us to handle the breakup with dignity. I only wish I had read this book a few months earlier!"
+435,2,The Begining of the best Horror Series Ever!,"Halloween is an instant classic. Jamie Lee Curtis and Donald Pleansance did the best acting. This movie is very mysterious, because you don't know why Micheal is going after Laurie. This isn't my favorite, though. Here's my best to worst: H4, H5(it was great), H1, H6(the t-cut! haven't seen p-cut) H2, H20, H8( wasn't bad.),H3 (it sucked)."
+436,1,dangerous advise!,"While this book had some good ideas, I thought his advise to men to sleep around after a break up was very irresponsible. He admits that many men will be prone to use sex at this time in an addictive way, to numb their feelings, so why encourage them to do so? Even worse, what about the feelings of the women that these men will be USING for their ""healing"" sex?? nobody deserves to be used that way!"
+437,2,good music,"I can not complain,brand new cd no scratch,and above all great music,,no broken case i love this group,,the instrument they use their song is amaizing"
+438,1,"The Antidote to ""Atlas Shrugged"":","Imagine all her beautiful, handsome, intelligent, wealthy, and just plain flawless charachters with screaming toddler children following them everywhere they go. Just goes to show that Randy Ayn had completely separated herself from reality when she wrote this."
+439,2,Excellent Microwave,"It comes only in white color and it is probably its only drawback. I am using it every day and what a great tool! It is the best microwave I ever had. And let me also mention ""it is the quickest!"" It does not have a sensor for those who are looking for this feature but I personally don't care not having it. In one sentence I simply love and recommend it to everyone. :)"
+440,2,Jack LaLanne's Power Juicer Juicing Machine,This product works well for the most part; it juices fruits and veggies with ease. The one thing I noticed however is that it the machine itself could be a bit higher so that you can place a regular size glass under the spout. It is a bit inconvenient & time consuming to have to use a smaller size glass/container and then have to transfer the juice to a larger container.
+441,2,Perks of being a wallflower,"Great book,wish it was longer.I hope Charlie is doing well and I hope he stayed friends with Sam and Patrick throughout his life.I almost wish the epilogue was a letter that took place 5 years later."
+442,2,The Tardis is Awesome,"This toy is really cool. It's got lots of little details that Dr. Who fans will appreciate. I was surprised by it's size, too. It's quite big and took about 30 minutes to put together, but it was worth it. And the sound effects are great."
+443,1,"Dull, Outdated, and Uninspired","Jay Conrad Levinson presents his thesis clearly time and time again in his book. In fact, he presents everything again and again. Each thought it reinforced at least 4 times in a dry and uninspired manner. Although Levinson tries to present marketing tactics that only a small business can use, he ends up presenting large-business tactics at a small scale. This book leaves out ground which has been broken by Loyalty Based marketing tactics, and sticks to traditional measures that are hardly relevant (at best) to entrepreneurs. The bottom line: invest your money elsewhere."
+444,1,USELESS!!!! No stars,"Bought this last Christmas for my daughter, I may as well have just thrown the $100 out the window. It never worked, and the support is nonexistent. By time the gift was given and figured out it would never work it was too late to return it. Don't waste your money."
+445,2,Batteries,"These are batteries. How much can be said? They are ""AA"" and came in a 20-count pack, just as described. So far I haven't used them all, however, the ones I have used do work. Great Product."
+446,1,Suxs.... NOT FUNNY!,"I wanted to buy this movie but my boyfriend decided we should rent it first from redbox before buying to decide if its really a Great movie. Well the movie was BAD really BAD... and WORST of ALL its NOT a FUNNY movie! I feel so BAD for Jennifer Aniston and Gerard Butler they're really, really GOOD actors but the people who wrote, produced and directed this movie should have done much better because now they just made two great actors look really really BAD!!!"
+447,1,A movie not even the director can love,"I love bad movies, and I mean love them, but this is just BAD. I won't even go into how this is a Ringu rip-off, but there is no production quality and, for that matter, no movie to speak of anyway. Some people may be enticed by the abundance of really UGLY girls who get naked in this ditty, but anyone with a brain-cell remaining will find sitting through this flick to be the worst torture one can think of. Please, steer clear!"
+448,1,Mostly disappointing,"This is a somewhat well written book. Character development and dialogue are much better than in DaVinci Code. The plot is weak, however. The part of the plot set in the former USSR might sound OK to a westerner, but to me, a Russian native, most of it sounds na?ve and poorly researched. You might like this book if you believe in magic, alchemy and easy to convince in general. Otherwise read Umberto Eco."
+449,2,thank you,Item is exactly as described by seller. Item is of good quality. I would recommend this item to anyone who is looking for such an item at a great price!
+450,2,Stoned on Stone Ltd,Lewis Taylor is a wonderful English soul artist and thisexpanded edition of Stoned is worth checking out. It hassome great demos of songs that were on Stoned II and theguy is just an great artist. His soul style has a deepthrowback vibe rivaling great artists like the Chi-litesand Marvin Gaye with a twist of today's electronica. Hesings songs of such passion easily missing in so muchof today's disposable music. His is a talent I never tireof listening to. There are spiritual treasures on Stonedthat are timeless and influential to me.
+451,1,"Pretty bloody thin, if you ask me","Is this a tome? I was expecting deep subject coverage. What we have instead is a reproduction of the API docs. Does that a tome make? I think not. What's missing? Complex examples. Real-world examples (who creates windows with API calls when we have TForm?). Undocumented insights behind the APIs -- things you can't find in MSDN or the Platform SDK. More than anything, this book highlights the bloody lack of good Delphi books. This one is definitely a pass."
+452,1,"Apt title, this cd is a Turkey !!!","First, I love the Kinks and to me Davies is the heart & soul of the group. That said this cd has five songs on it that can all be found on the Davies first solo cd ""Other Peoples Lives"""
+453,2,Great towel,"These towels are wonderful. They are the thickest, heaviest towels I have ever bought. For the price I don't think you can find a better towel."
+454,1,More Hollywood Garbage,"Yet another movie to lead us to believe that all cops are corrupt, addicted, bumbling idiots who only enforce the law to further their own agendas. Criminals, however, are honorable upright guys unjustly persecuted by the police. These movies are boringly predictable. Hey Hollywood, here's an interesting plot twist for you, now listen carefully: Make a movie where the cops are the good guys, and the criminals are the bad guys. Throw this one away."
+455,2,This cd is awsome!!!!,If you loved the music from the Majora's Mask game you'll LOVE this cd! It has every song in it totaling to 112 tracks!!!The only downside is it only runs through the song once. Other than this cd rocks!! If your a zelda fan this is a must buy!!!
+456,2,Excellent Storage for DSLRs,"This is my largest Lowepro SlingShot bag. It's exellent: has great padding, allows easy access to camera while still wearing bag, and is comfortable. It may be a bit too big for most (if you are using a smaller DSLR with only a couple lenses, go with the Lowepro SlingShot 100 series. I have several lenses, flash units, and other accessories so this one works great with my D90 - and I can leave my large 700mm telephoto lens on the camera when storing in this bag. I highly recommend this and other Lowero bags!!!"
+457,2,Predictable quality,"This cookbook provides quality recipes that are absolutey yummy. The mango chutney and cranberry sauce recipes are fabulous. This is an excellent choice for anyone who likes tasty, small batch preserving. Very easy to follow and understand."
+458,1,hmmm.,This movie was quite hard to understand. And it seemed a bit gay at times.. Not somthing i would watch again. I liked Helena Bonham carter much better in room with a view!
+459,2,Very nice,"It does what it says pretty well. The toaster toasts well. Usually the sandwich sized bread works best, but slightly larger is also fine."
+460,2,A Stew of Genius,"This book has a method in which to induce the reader to keep reading, especially if that reader happens to already be intrigued by planes.In this vivid account Pat Milton takes the reader inside the lives and homes of the victims' family and as close as possible to the reason of the crash.Like the sinking of the Titanic, the crash of TWA Flight 800 just off Long Island, New York, in the early evening of July 17, 1996, captured the world's imagination. Associated Press reporter Pat Milton has covered the story from day one and was granted unprecedented access to the FBI investigation--the largest and most complex in the agency's history.Initially suspecting that a crime had been committed, James Kallstrom, the head of the FBI's New York office, led the two-year investigation from the start."
+461,1,less than rubish,"You have got to be joking me, some people have given this 4 stars, if only you could give numbers below 1. I fell in love whith the song 'Oh my god i can't belive it' so ui decided to buy the album. But as i listen to the songs on the album it was 11 of the worst songs i have ever heard. I mean im more of a hip hop fan but every once in a while i like to listen to abit of rock but this album was so rubish it hurt my ears. Listening to this album hurts more than a toothache. I put it on my ipod and listen to the rest and i realised i had just wasted 30 minutes of my life. 30 minutes that i will never get back. please if your thinking of buying this album listen to what im saying, because the media might fool you into buing this garbage."
+462,1,possibly worst movie ever,"This film is quite possibly the worst movie I've ever seen. Oh, it's true... What a waste of time! No Mike Myers, Jamie Lee or the Doctor? Why even have ""Halloween"" in the title then? There's absolutely nothing scary here except maybe the acting and cheesy effects. Horrible!! 100% USDA Garbage"
+463,2,Don't be turned away by the name!,"Don't let the brand fool you, this cologne is very high quality and an incredible buy at the price. I typically wear Burberry Britt but an employee recommended this to me and it has become my new go-to cologne. It's not too strong of a scent and it lasts a very long time. Give it a try!"
+464,1,You will be sorry-don't do it! Just say no to the V300!,"I bought this phone in Dec. 2004. In Feb. 2005 the battery stopped holding a charge so Tmobile sent me a new battery. That stopped working a week later so they sent me a new phone.I noticed the new (could be refurbished they said) phone seemed ""tighter...even the batteries fit better.Three weeks later the phone stopped working. They wanted to replace it with the same model. I said no. So I cancelled and stopped the autowithdrawal at the bank and will not pay the cancellation fee. Ever.Tmobile is great. The V300 sucks. Anyone interested in starting a class action lawsuit against Motorola and this phone email me watchtower77@gmail.com."
+465,2,Great trailer,"I recently purchased the Schwinn Trailblazer Double as a 2nd trailer to keep at my parents' house. We also own a Chariot double. For the price,the Schwinn gets the job done.Positives - it folds VERY flat and compactly and is easy to fold (even while holding a squirming 11 month old), it is light, good ventilation, snack pockets, nice storage bin, handle bar can be set for different height parent, snap cover is easy to put on/take off, the front ""arm"" folds in for a very small ""folded footprint""Negatives - no shocks so is a bumpy ride, the front wheel is not very sturdy (when I ran with it, I tilted the stroller so the wheel was off the ground), small sling-style seat so the kids sit very close together, straps are not very adjustable and can be difficult to clip on/off, cannot be fitted with an infant sling, no sun shadeAll-in-all, a great stroller. I would consider this as our only trailer if we didn't already have a Chariot."
+466,2,Get moved,"SF walks the strangely satisfying line between muddled meandering, intellectual endeavoring, and powerful progressing, all without loosing an engaging originality."
+467,2,Give this designer an award,"Finally, I found something to stop the pain of airplane pressure. All my years of suffering and then not flying. This item should be promoted better. I did not even know they existed until someone recommended them to me. Free from pain while flying at last!"
+468,1,never mind................,"I have read every single Koontz book, but geez........this was beyond bad. Yes an easy read, and I know I can't write, but didn't pull me in. Not scary, because it is just too ""out there"". These new Koontz books have really let me down."
+469,1,"I wanted to like this, but. . .","I wanted to like this book, but in the end I did not. From the beginning, it is clear that the author knows how to put one word in front of another. The problems are with the plot and the characters. There are too many seemingly gratuitous plot twists. For example, two of the main protagonists are the Champion, and the Moonsword. But at times during the book, the questions of who is the Champion, what is the Moonsword (and how is it made), have different answers. And, despite what we are led to believe for all but the last few pages of the book, did the Champion make the Moonsword? The most basic rule of a fantasy novel is that the author makes the rules of the universe he or she creates. The author cannot violate her own rules and expect the reader to feel entertainment rather than frustration (my reaction when I finished). This book could have been good, but it was not."
+470,1,Horrible!!!!!!!!!,I dont know what Microsoft was thinking when they released this. It sounds terrible in the car. My ipod transmitter sounds perfect and this sounds the junk. You think for as much money as microsoft makes they could come up with somthing better. DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY!!!
+471,1,no,Why did you send a dvd that you are very sure it does not work here in The United States? Does it make any sense for you? Why don't ask us to be sure before send it to another Country? If you know that it won't work on that Country?
+472,2,Good Read,"I, a 1year+ player found this book a learning experiance, so people should lay off the low ratings. This is a good read for anyone who plays Neopets."
+473,2,Not Just a Beloved Children's Book!,"This book is a delight to both young and old, and as many times as I've read it or had it read to me, I still love the story. For one thing the characters are unforgettable. Who can forget the Queen of Hearts, Tweedledum and Tweedledee and the Mad Hatter? There are so many adaptations of this book and so many varied ways to enjoy it, that there is perhaps a danger that it may be overused. I think though that it is best enjoyed read in a book since that is where the imagination can take over and make the book something magical. Take the time to reread this great classic. It's well worth it."
+474,2,A real eye-opener!,Incredibly interesting and surprisingly easy to read. I'm very glad I read this book and would recommend it to anyone
+475,2,Nicely presented DVD collection with packaging defects,"I recently received my set in the mail. It is a nicely packaged DVD collection which is setup like a scrapbook with a furry/felt textured cover. There are nice photo pages with summaries of the episodes. Each season has it's own color. I've watched the 2nd season DVDs, and they all work in my PS2 DVD player.The only problem I had was the defect with the pages inside the pick cover. The top and bottom corners were not cut well - so somewhat ragged while the rest of the edges are cut straight and clean.If you're looking for a good price for a set of the DVDs and don't care much about the box, this is a good deal."
+476,2,"Halo, the 2nd best FPS ever...","Xbox is the reason for Halo, and Halo is the reason for Xbox. Halo is (in my opinion) the 2nd best FPS ever. Medal of Honor: Allied Assault tops it by just a TAD bit (and I'm not even a PC gamer...)And, to the person who said Halo has bad graphics, you must be smoking something..."
+477,2,Great book.,"I read the sisterhood of the traveling pants a couple of months ago. I am 15, and i highly recommend it to a teenage girl. It shows how relationships with friends can last and so on. I enjoyed it, and was finished with it in less than a week since i couldnt put it down when i had freetime on my hands."
+478,2,Lots to do for the little ones,"1 year old Grandson loved it, too much there for him to get bored easily. For whatever reason he seems to like the seat a lot, open and insert object-close-open again and remove.It seems well made and easy for him to handle, and his parents weren't upset either-that might change after a couple months though.All in all, well worth seeing the little one have fun."
+479,2,A must read!,"Albom captures the essence of reality in this quick read about his former professor, Morrie. I have read this book numerous times since it was first released. It moved me to the point of purchasing this book over and over again for friends, family, and even professors that needed to hear, see, and experience Morrie. Well done!"
+480,1,Not what I expected...,"When i read the reviews on this game i thought it was going to be an instant classic! What a suprise i got when i bought it. This game starts out way too slow for one thing, and also the games graphics are just terrible! The anime/ 3D style of graphics does not work at all. Looking at that game made my eyes water, it was like looking at a blurry picture. Besides that the game is a little cheap if you ask me. You will die countless times because of certain view or angles in the game. Not to mention the fear meter! That thing is worthless! Once the fear meter goes up, you have to get a one-hit kill for it to go back down. You should have a drink or something that can bring the fear meter down. Once you play this game through, you will not want to play it again, i know i didn't. The only thing some poeple might find interesting in this game is that their are a hand full of curse words, and a bit of skin. Then again it's only blurry polygons..."
+481,2,My Mom's First Book : ),"My mom's first book is GREAT. It's very interesting and unique. I have yet to read a novel anything like it. Behind the Screen contains romance and suspense. You get 2 great themes all in one book! A wonderful, quick read. You won't regret buying it. :)"
+482,1,Food is delicious but way overpriced compared to local supermarket,It is as yummy and nutritious as all the other reviews claim. You don't have to like Indian food to like this product and it does remind me of a good chile.Regular price at Stop & Shop is $3.69. I thought that was expensive so I decided to look for it online. The price on Amazon and other online retailers is so ridiculously expensive that I'm going back to the supermarket to stock up just in case they priced it wrong.
+483,2,An incredible example of perserverance.,This amazing Lady is incredibly tough! Her story of all that she and others endured under Castro's horrific regime in Cuba should be a must read for all those who want to know the real truth about 'life under the Castros'. Forget about 'the media' and celebrities who were/are pampered by the dictator and his cronies. This is a first hand account. I highly recommend this book!
+484,1,Just another Bush-bashing book,"Bill Press has been an active Democratic operative for many, many years. To his credit, he argues passionately for the values he believes in. But this book is not his best work. Mr. Press just ticks off all the same old Democratic talking points. He doesn't add anything new to the debate."
+485,2,Pleasantly surprised,"When I first recieved this dulcimer, I was shocked at its light weight, and thought I had purchased something akin to a toy-guitar. However, after learning to play it, and taking lessons, I discovered that this is a very nice, affordable instrument, with a good tone. I would recommend not using the guitar picks that are offered on this site. A better alternative is the flexible dulcimer picks, which make a much nicer sound."
+486,1,Fair CD,"This CD is not bad, but not good either. It is one of Agnetha's post ABBA era CD's. She was much better in the ABBA years."
+487,2,NEW KIDS ARE STILL COOL,When I was younger I loved the NKOTB but for some reason I stopped listening to them and got rid of all of my NKOTB stuff and now that I am 16 I'm getting back into the sound of their music and It still sounds great! I loved the NKOTB! They knew what music was all about and that comes though on the Hangin' Tough CD. I think that more people should still support the NKOTB!
+488,1,no date on filter...,i wouldve gave it a four out of 5 but the filter is useless it has no date so it cant be trusted this is supposed to save lives and if you dont kno if the filter is expired or new ur gambling with your life on the brightside the mask fits perfectly sucks to your face when inhaling and pulls away when exhaling also a small nick on the left eye other then that its fine just bad filter good for a prop not good for life and death situation
+489,1,Broke within two months,"I purchased wireless headphones before that were not as fancy looking but that last me for a few years. This one stopped working after a couple of months. I'm a busy mom of three whose kids go to school far from my house. I drive 500 miles a week, and didn't fit in the time to try to return it until now, and my return window is expired. I would not recommend purchasing these headphones."
+490,1,Body Artist is the Emperor with No Clothes,"The Body Artist by Don DeLillo is a good example of ""The Emperor Has No Clothes"" syndrome in a book. It is creatively experimental, parts are breathtaking in its poetic observation, it is fascinating at times, but ultimately, the story is confusing and not especially interesting - although at a little more than 100 pages you don't have time to become completely bored. It is possible that in Mr. DeLillo's quest to write something out of the ordinary, he has left most readers behind. I strongly recommend his brilliant novel ""White Noise"" (5 of 5 stars for me), and his equally brilliant ""Libra"" over this highly creative but confusing experiment that didn't always work."
+491,2,Love this product,"Love this product, we used to drink real green Coconut water in India, and it was very close to that test. I never had any can or packed coconut water this much close to real test. LOVE it and advise others to try."
+492,2,John Green.....I am still laughing,"I have enjoyed this book. I can not say that I like it better than any of John Green's other books, but I have laughed out loud at the antics of Colin, Hassan, and Lindsey."
+493,1,Not very useful,"With exception of one black plastic sight post, the remainder are a translucent plastic which is hard to see. Mine actually did not match the picture which includes a white and blue solid looking piece. Light does not flow evenly through, but varies with the placement of the lighting source. Worse yet, even the sighting post (as opposed to the mounting end) was threaded! This created a fuzzy sight picture. Not something I would recommend unless you're really, really desperate. And then I would sand off the threads from the sight part of the post and then paint the thing a good solid orange."
+494,1,ACK! What have they done! WHERE IS KEVIN?,"When I heard that TNT would be airing a miniseries based on ""The Mists of Avalon,"" I was, to say the least, quite apprehensive. Trying to condense a multi-layered, 876-page book into a three-hour miniseries WITH commercial breaks... it made me nervous. Sadly enough, I was right to be so worried; more so than I had hoped to be. There were many fairly important characters (such as Kevin and Nimue), and, consequently, many relationships left out that had played rather a key role in the story. The entire thing had all the passion and fire of a soap dish, and any ""offensive"" (see ORIGINAL) ideas and/or situations edited out. What a sad disappointment."
+495,1,Great Caraffe - that's about it,I wanted to get a grind in brew coffee pot with a caraffe so options under $300.00 were limited. I found this and really liked the look. Overall it's easy to figure out (if your not one for directions) BUT it really has some faults that need to be corrected. The filter door pops open randomly. The first two times (after a brief freak out) I tried to take a look at how I was doing things to see if maybe how I put the filter in or the plastic top was actually causing the door to pop but I couldn't see how I could be more careful. I actually had one run of about6 pots of coffee with no issues but the messes just keep happening and my frustration level reached it's limit. I boxed the thing back up and returned it. The positive is the caraffe. It keeps the coffee hot even overnight. I hope Cuisinart can figure out how to improve the filter door - they'd have a pretty great product if they did.
+496,1,Dreadful movie about people I dont care about,"The movie never developed a ""feeling"" for the characters, wasnt very scary, wasnt a well made movie in any manner and is so forgetable I had to click on it to remember the basic plotline....what little there was of it.I dont recommend this movie......at all"
+497,1,This one just didnt do it for me.,"I really could not get into this book, I started it but could not finish it as well.Thank God I borrowed it from the library!!!"
+498,1,Review Questions for MRI,Do not buy this book. The questions are way too easy and will prepare you little for the boards. Better to place you money in another review book.
+499,2,a best buy,"I purchased 2 for my 2004 Accord V6. Took 5 minutes to install, very attractive and easy to maintain. All my neighbors noticed & like them. The left one was missing after a month, I think someone stole it at the parking lot so I ordered another one to replace it. This time, I super glue the screws.The price is right and the shipping is fast. I will definitely buy them for my next car."
+500,1,"When it worked, it worked well, but...","When my old Zyliss gave up the ghost I looked about for a replacement. I have other OXO products and am pleased with them, so I gave this a flyer. On the plus side, it's sturdy and very easy to operate. However, I found that most of the time, about four cans out of five, it wouldn't cut the lid completely off. I'd be left with a lid slightly immersed in the can's contents and attached by a small strand of metal. I'd then have to get a small knife or fork to pry the lid out of the can and was still left with the task of getting the lid off the can without cutting myself.Based on the other reviews I'm figuring I just got a dud, so I'll replace it with another OXO opener, but not this one."
+501,1,TEKTON 6737 Long Taper Punch Set,"Punch set was not what I expected. The ends were flat. I can use these 4 ""punches"" for marking, nothing else. I needed the punches for punching material out..."
+502,1,bad edition,"The kindle edition of L'Education Sentimentale (in french) by Flaubert is just awful. No dots, no commas, lack of paragraphs and part of sentences that make the reading nearly impossible. I'm not complaining about Flaubert's writing, but about the kindle edition I've got.L'edition Kindle de L'Education Sentimentale de Flaubert en Franais est affreuse. Il y a de graves problemes de ponctuation et d'edition. Cela rend la lecture practiquement impossible."
+503,1,overrated,"i really dont see what all the hype is about this movie. OK, so it has it's share of frightening parts, but other movies such as FEAR DOT COM, DARKNESS FALLS, and GHOST SHIP did too. sorry, but a girl crawling out of a tv monitor just does not scare me."
+504,1,"Goes ""Haywire"" Regularly","Setup was easy enough, but this printer routinely goes haywire, spitting out a whole cartridge load of paper and refusing to print. I have tried it with several different PCs, with this same intermittent weird behavior. Only a reset of both the printerand the computer seem to fix everything.I'm off to buy an Epson!"
+505,2,fun zeppelin addition,"This is a fun CD to have in your collection if you've grown a little tired of listening to Zeppelin. These (unknown) women give fresh, interesting, stripped down versions of old classics. Unlike another reviewer, I found the jazzy version of Stairway to be a marvelous way to actually be able to LISTEN to this song again. But the All of My Love version is a complete bust (but then it wasn't very good in the original, either...)."
+506,2,Glorius Book!,This is an amazing account of supernatural happenings during a true revival of God.A must read for God seekers.
+507,1,disappointed again,"I've been hanging in here, waiting for God knows what with this series. The first book was great -- thought provoking and a little bit frightening. Every book since then has been a disappointment. And with each new release, my suspicion grows that Jenkins and Lahaye are greedy; trying to sell more books by stretching this series wayyyyyyy out. Well, this is it. No more. I've read my last Left Behind book."
+508,1,Not what I expected,The book was mostly about the authors personal experiences and doing miracles. One page on how to fast. Not really want I expected.
+509,1,kind of dumb,"I had heard the rave reviews for this movie and I must say I was quite disappointed. The movie was way too long and was fairly boring. The ending was really stupid and just kind of stopped in the middle of nowhere, which was basically an introdution to the second in series. What a bunch of weird, unbelievable characters in this movie as well. No chance I'll be watching the next two in the series. Would not want to waste my time."
+510,1,The worst book I've read in my life!,"R.A. Salvatore's thoughtless, skin-deep, and outright juvenile writing style really reaches an all-time low in this novel. The narration is just terrible, it tells, rather than 'shows' anything. The conceptualization and the characterization of all of the characters in this story, including that of the its main protagonist, Wulfgar is mind-numbingly monotonous, as well as jarringly offensive. The author tries to be 'dark' and 'controversial', but ends up coming across as superficial and blatantly manipulative isntead. This book is probably -the- single worst book Salvatore has ever written. At least his other novels had some superficial appeal, despite their shallowness, but this book is just shallow.In short, don't buy this book. If you like R.A. Salvatore's work, buy the Icewind Dale trilogy or the Legacy of the Drow Anthology instead. They are all -much- better."
+511,1,Absolute junk,"Never even able to inflate one tire. Valve stem locking mechanism broke on initial use! Purchased with cerdit card points - now in process of trying to get a refund. Unfortunately thought I could depend on the Black & Decker name for quality. Should have read the reviews. Sounds like a fuse would blow after a few times anyway. Guess I'll have to get another like the one I bought 20 yrs ago for $25, and still have, from K Mart for my 2nd car."
+512,2,Stones From The River,Stones From The River is an interesting and thought-provoking novel. This story tells of a small German town during World War Two and chronicles the various hardships the town goes through when the town's citizens are torn apart based on their views of both Jews and the newly formed Natzi party. Told from the perspective of a dwarf girl living in the town this novel portrays a viewpoint rarely experienced by American readers (that of a non-Jewish as well as anti-Natzi). Through this story readers learn about the hardships German citizens experienced after World Wars One and Two and how keeping silent only slowed the healing process for this town and its people. Although the book is a bit to long and takes a while to get interesting it is a wonderful story that is both entertaining and educational.
+513,1,This was the worst book ever.,The Pearl was the worst book i have ever read in my life. This book had no purpose and made no sence. This book was very boring. I wish to never read this book ever again.

+515,1,"Great Book, Horrid CD",Painfully academic in it's delivery and the staged negotiation scenarios are stilted and slow.Book is a good read and offers some good approaches and negotiating techniques. The audio CD is dull and is an uninspired presentation of good material.
+516,2,My Favourite book!!!,"The First book I read by Amy Tan was The Joy luck club when I was 13 and I didn't think any other book could surpass it but she's done it again! I recommend that every one read The Hundred Secret Senses!! Even though I have the same last name as Amy, we are NOT related. Too bad, she's my fav. author."
+517,1,"Yes, people. This album really does suck.","Sammy Hagar can sing okay, but he can't write lyrics if they crawled up his leg and bit him in the arse. Anyway, Dave was what the band was all about - crazy guitar and crazy lyrics. Eddie's guitar playing only got better over the years, but seriously, guys, lose the Cherones and Hagars, and get back to where the music belongs."
+518,1,Not like original - Mark Tiedemann is no Robert Silverberg,"I really can't read this book. The text does not flow like Asimov's books. It reads like something else. It is a littlke too fast paced, with too little dialogue and I think there is not enough reflection on the background and the possibilities.The basic premise has got something wrong with it. It's not tied in too well to other things.If Asimov would use any of these ideas,he would offer some explanation. Asimov also, by the way,often had some short third person narration interspersed inhis books and this is totally missing.Robert Silverberg expanded a few Isaac Asimov stories into books and he did it in keeping with Asimov's style. Robert Tiedemann is no Robert Silverberg. If Asimov had been alive, I don't thinmk he would have approved of this, except if he decided not to careI give it two stars because at least this is a try. Also, I only have this book,not its predecessor."
+519,2,Harrison Ford for President!,"I don't care how cheesy or overly patriotic those cynical reviewers think this movie was. It's good, old-fashioned, edge of your seat entertainment. The president is a decent, moral man who loves his family and takes care of business in every sense of the word and right now I'd love to see his real life counterpart in office."
+520,1,Perhaps not the best edition,"I can't vouch for the translation (this was a gift) but I didn't care for the printing quality of this edition. The margins were huge (1.25"" except on the spine) which crowded the text and I found the font to be muddy not as ""clean"" as I'd hoped. It almost looked like a reproduction of a 1910 edition and a challenge for older eyes. I returned this and purchased the El Paso Norte Press edition which had very legible print and a nicer over all feel."
+521,1,A TEXAN COMES COURTING,"SADLY, I KEPT THINKING THERE MIGHT HAVE BEEN SOME TYPOS. THERE COULDN'T POSSIBLY HAVE BEEN ANY EDITING OF THIS BOOK. I LAID IT DOWN SEVERAL TIMES, BUT BEING AN AVID READER, I KEPT THINKING THE REAL STORY WOULD BEGIN - - NOT!!!THIS BOOK HAS BEEN THROWN AWAY. I WOULDN'T EVEN PASS IT ON TO ANYONE. REGRET I EVEN SPENT FIVE MINUTES ON IT."
+522,2,Must have for all Sherlock Holmes fans,"Read all of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's writings on Sherlock Holmes? Now see it come to life as Jeremy Brett and David Burke bring all our imaginations to life just like we had wanted.I first bought only the first box, skeptical if I may like it, but today I will be placing my order for the rest of the collection."
+523,2,An Excellent Book for Wargamers,"There is little to add to the some of the excellent reviws previously listed. The documentation and bibliography is impressive as well as the author's willingness to discuss alternate interpretations of key historical events. The book is well written; but it is the numerous and well-drawn maps that I found particularly impressive.My hobby is wargaming; and for those that share this hobby, this book is a gem. Think of it; 35 possible scenarios complete with maps ranging from Ancient Egyptian vs Ancient Syrian to Mondern Israelis vs Arabs...and even Armageddon itself. This can be considered either a ""future"" or a ""fantasy"" battle based upon your preferences. All of these battles could be gamed upon one large map or playing area stretching from Megiddo in the West to Mts Tabor, Gilboa, and Moreh in the East,\."
+524,1,This is not the same as the XM MIFI,"Before you buy this you should note that this is not the same as XM MIFI. You cannot listen to live radio portably only stored music.If you want to use it for your home you have to buy for $100 an optional home dock.The mifi comes with evrything car kit,home kit And you can listen live. The s50 does have 50hrs of mp3 recording In short if you want 50 hrs of mp3 it is cheaper to buy a ipod and the mifi then the entire s50 kitThe s50 cost $329 plus home kit $100= $429The mifi cost $150 plus I pod $200= $350"
+525,2,Wonderful Car Seat!!,"My husband and I love our son's car seat. Very nice-looking car seat for the price! I have been having trouble getting the clasps open and closed, but my hubby can get it no problem. That is my only problem. Love it though!!!"
+526,2,Good Product,The LeapFrog: Learning DVD Set is a very good product. I love that it does the sounds of the letters which my 2 year old repeats. However I really don't like that in order to focus on the letters slowly you must go to that menu and click each letter each sound at a time. Though still very cartoony / entertaining a good learning tool that keeps the child's attention.
+527,1,geez i stopped playing the first time i got it,"The levels are so boring. It deserves to be on the cheapest and worst system. Like, it's alot more fun to use the money to drive go carts rather spending on this junk. It's all too flat. Racing games are only good with obstacals like ramps, water splash, and stuff to run over. If you really want to try it, rent it or play at someones house who has this lame game"
+528,1,Disappointed,"I've read all the Clancy books except Red Rabbit, and that because the reviews were so bad. I love Clancy and love his politics, but this book is way short of expectations. I was able to skim pages and not lose the story, not so in his earlier books where you had to read every word. Much of it was filler. The story could have been told easily in 200 pages. The story was also very predictable. Very disappointing."
+529,2,Hilarious!,My goodness this musical is awesome!!! The first time I listened to this CD I was cracked up and shocked at the same time. This musical is just on edge hilarious. It plays to a generation of people who were brought up on the innocence of Sesame Street and then breaks all the rules. I can't wait to see this on Broadway live!
+530,1,Not for me,This book might be helpful for people who need help in developing critical thinking and taking a more objective view of life. But I think it would be rather banal for people who have already developed these traits.
+531,1,IMPRESCINDIBLE,"This book, it is an excellent work. A good result of a professional life fully dedicated to the study of human behavior. And for me what is more important is that the author ""destile"" his knowledge in very clear ideas.Withouth any doubt a classical book."
+532,2,Great Product,Does everything as advertized. Love the turbo feature that speeds up the heating process to less than one minute.
+533,1,Disappointed,This was a so-so movie but a really crappy read. Wish I'd never started it much less finished it. Never again.
+534,1,#1 Worst Movie Ever Made,"My 6 year old daughter really wanted to watch this movie so I finally caved and agreed to put it on for her. I was able to endure about 15 minutes of this whiny, screechy torturefest before the urge to gouge out my own eardrums with a screwdriver became too overwhelming to bear. Fred is basically an overgrown toddler whose high-pitched whining reaches decible levels previously unknown to mankind. This kid's perpetual temper tantrum deserves a spanking and a time-out at best. How it ever yielded him his own film (not to mention a sequel...my ears hurt just thinking about it) will forever remain a mystery. Oh the horror..."
+535,1,cool but not that fantastic,"I have been using this mouse for 2 month now, I start to NOT liking it. It's heavy, the position for the fingers is not very comfortable (my right hand even feels pain), my shoulder feels weird too, and the mouse drains battery BIG TIME!!!. Since I am using it on a Mac, and I turned off the Microsoft Mouse control, I don't get so much of those jerky movement PC users had experienced. But still, I'd rather go with the ones got a cord on, they are lighter, smaller and more accurate."
+536,2,3rd time is a charm,This is my 3rd time getting this game had some UP's and Downs and my life but now I'm happy to have this game back.
+537,2,Stone Pillow,"I saw this movie when it first appeared on TV. It took years for me find it to purchase. I believe this is probally the best performance Lucille Ball ever did. Exceptional drama acting. Only a ""pro"" could acomplish this movie."
+538,2,The Swarzbein Principle,"I was identified as a Type2 Diabetic 3.5 years ago at age 51. During that time I went to nutritionists and my health care team to gain advise and control of the diabetic condition. I followed all the advise and failed. Failure to the point that my medication reached the max before needing to switch to insulin.Along came Dr. Swarzbein with her ""common sense"" approach to the underlying problem, inappropriate insulin levels. Her report makes absolute sense. I began the process and within one week my morning blood count went from averaging 8.6 to averaging 5.4. (This is the Canadian counting system). After 7 weeks I have lost 12 lbs. and my blood count average is 5.1.If results are this dramatic for Diabetes, imagin the results for other chronic conditions.I highly recommend this common sense proven solution to maintaining good health.Mike Simmons Victoria B.C. Canada"
+539,1,Not as useful as previous editions,"I have a previous edition of this book, so I was excited to find this latest one. However, the book now consists of ONLY the name of the series, a brief paragraph about it, and perhaps a voice actor list. In the process of adding more shows, the book became less interesting and useful as a resource."
+540,1,Beaters wobble,"Mixer looks good, has a good slow speed and priced well - BUT one beater wobbled. Amazon promptly replaced the mixer but the replacement had 2 wobbling beaters and no dough hooks!!Time for a refund."
+541,2,Worth the money,"I used this to replace the broken boot on my mini generator. It works fine... and for the price, I only need 1 but now I have 8 more spares, i case it breaks again."
+542,2,A man in the ivory tower,"Shoher correctly wrote about Chomsky,""Regardless of how misguided and idealistic are Chomsky's views, I deeply respect him as a voice of conscience, reminding us of morality where we prefer efficiency and of compassion where we pursue self-interest.""But for the balanced view, I suggest Samson Blinded: A Machiavellian Perspective on the Middle East Conflict."
+543,1,"Great Idea, But this book is full of inaccuracies","I loved the book when I took it home. However, after actually trying many of the design stiches offered, I have found that plenty of patterns have mistakes in them. At the end of the day, trying to correct some of the mistakes takes more time than is saved by having the directory. go elsewhere for your stitch library needs"
+544,1,not as expected,"A bit too pop, expected more. A few of the songs work well but many of the others are too routine."
+545,2,Fantastic Power Supply!,"Okay, I bought this thing to use in my commercial van, which I have converted into a camper. In back of the driver's seat I have an electrical power center, with shore power (AC), and DC are provided by either deep cycle battery or the DC Power supply.This power supply is rugged and can stand up to a beating. It is very much a quality built product. It can easily handle any type of DC load I have plugged into it. It's very safe and does not get very hot at all when on for long periods. This is impressive as it is only passively cooled. Thanks so much to Pyramid for building such a great and dependable product at a very reasonable price! Buy with confindence!"
+546,1,Just not very good,"People love this book, looking at the other reviews! I wanted to, but just couldn't. The plot, the dialogue, the characterizations... all seemed shallow and not compelling at all. I thought the quality of the writing itself was actually quite bad."
+547,2,The King of Suspense strikes again,"Rex Stout is clearly the best writer in this genre. He manages to combine exciting and original plots with a light, entertaining and witty style of writing. How can someone not laugh about the acid sarcasm that runs between Archie and Nero? How can someone not be amused by the Wolfe's small idiosyncrasies? In The Doorbell Rang Stout is once again at his best. This time Wolfe lured by an incredibly wealthy client takes on Hoover and the FBI. This adds some not very realistic element to the story and that is why I gave this book only four stars. Besides from that excellent read, very enjoyable. Gotta love Stout!"
+548,2,Earth & Sun & Moon meets Redneck Wonderland,"Another solid Oils album. I've been a fan since Diesel and Dust and have all their stuff. I'd rate this one toward the top of the heap. If you liked Earth & Sun & Moon, this one is more aggressive, but not nearly as aggressive as Redneck Wonderland (their masterpiece if you ask me). They've still got it."
+549,2,Good Product,"I ordered 2 of these vacuums. One for home use and one I use in my babershop. They are effcient, fast, and I like the fact that after the initial charge and rundown they can be left on the charger."
+550,2,Count Basie always great,"Enjoyed just about everyone except George Benson he did not seem to fit . His style at odds with the band. Always enjoy Sarah and Joe, also Tony Bennett. Would enjoy just the band on it's own!"
+551,2,Decent low-carb option,"All in all the blueberry muffins were good. They are not super-sweet like many store or cafe bought muffins, but they were still yummy. The texture is soft and fluffy, not cardboard. It was nice to have these as a low-carb treat.The only negative is that the package only makes 11-12 small muffins at 4 carbs each (1 muffin is a serving). I used the standard cupcake sized silicon baking cups and only got 11 with none of them baking any higher than the top of the cups. One won't fill you up enough to have as breakfast by itself, but they make a great snack in the afternoon or paired with some berries for desert."
+552,2,Fast moving entertainment,"OK... my brother hates time travel stories, but I have this thing where I really dislike stories about charactors from the ""real world"" falling into another hidden world somehow magically connected to our world. Zelanzy did it up fine in the Amber books and that's just enough for me. It's basically an authors strategy for introducting a fantasy world. Generally I prefer the novelist to plunge full into the world building and have the whole fantasy tale take place in the imagined world. None of the cross over business.I picked this book up on the nice review from the SciFi web site, and I'm glad I did. It's a fun and fast moving entertainment and I am greatly looking forward to reading the rest of the series. I still have my bias about crossover books, but I found this book so engaging that my bias has been suspended this time. Recommended."
+553,2,"Excellent Performance, Very Happy","I purchased this saw a month ago thru Amazon. Set up was straght forward and took about two hours. The saw arrived with a ding in the upper wheel cover and a bent blade tensioner, both correctable in the shop. This is my first band saw and is living up to expectations and then some. It cuts 4/4 hardwoods accurately and with little saw marks. I have used it on oak, maple and walnut. I do wish it came with a fence and miter as these are almost always going to be added. My first Jet tool (I have Grizzly, Delta and Craftsman), it will not be my last. I am a better than novice woodworker. (This is Deborra's husband Dennis)"
+554,1,Badger Units Are CR*P,I have had THREE Badger units in the past 10 years. In my opinion they are junk. All of the above 4-5 star reviews are RECENT installs. All the lousy review are from users that had the units for a while. Do yourself a favor and get a different brand. You'll be sorry otherwise. Just my opinion.
+555,2,This Book is sooooooo good!!!!!!,"I just love dogs and this book is probably the best dog book I have ever read. It is very informitive,has several good dog breeds in there,and has very detailed pictures. At school I am know as the dog freak because I have memorized all the breeds in this book. If you love dogs as much as I do purchase this book."
+556,1,JUNK,"This is one of the most pretentious pieces of junk (want to avoid Amazon editors) I've read in quite some time. This novel has gotten a lot of good reviews. Why, is beyond me.Save yourself of a few wasted hours and skip this."
+557,1,Like Nailing Metaphysical Jell-O to the Wall,"Sorry, maybe it's just me but I just don't get it. I'm more of a practical bent but this book required slogging through a whole lot of vapor to get anything out of it.There are books you read where you have a hard time putting them down. Then there are books you have to force yourself to finish. ""A New Earth"" fell into the latter category for me. I had heard much of the Oprah-cized hype over the book which I met with high expectations.At the end, though, it seemed over-reaching in its quest for spiritual profundity. Be mindful. Be in the moment. Be a human being, not a human doing.You could have boiled it down to that and spared us all about 280 pages."
+558,2,Genius!,"This large print dictionary makes word-finding unbelievably easy! It has large print so that words can be found quickly. And it's perfect for those who have a hard time seeing. It's not that hard to find a word because whereas with smaller, finer print dictionaries in which the words are all so compacted to fit into a 500+ page book and are much smaller, this book has them printed much larger and yet still has a lot to translate."
+559,1,Didn't even make one batch,"This was the #1 wish for my daughter's Christmas gift. She was so excited to find it this morning, but heart broken, when after only one batch, the machine wouldn't work anymore. We tried all the trouble shooting, called the manufacturer and they recommend that we return it! Very disappointing."
+560,1,Unintentionally hilarious,"Two words summarise this book: Abject nonsense. With the marked exception of the chapter on Vietnam, which is suprising insightful and sensitive. Which makes the ludicrous ramblings of the other chapters all the more baffling!"
+561,1,This book did nothing for me,"Although it tries to help, I am still addicted to pornography. I seem to be using it more now than ever before."
+562,1,"""Matrix"" wannabe",This movie tanked in the theaters and with good reason-the story and special effects are lame.
+563,2,Encore! More of the Concert Sound of Henry Mancini CD Review,"I'm fairly sure this CD is the same as the original LP, which was released around 1967. After over 40 years I still remember that the end of the LP contained a medley of Mancini's themes, which were beautifully arranged and performed. I hope this CD is going to be re-issued at a reasonable price someday. As I recall, Mancini conducted the Philadelphia Pops for recording the LP."
+564,2,Good for the price,I got 5 of these to display my various string instruments and with the exception of one that didn't fit all others fit great and look good.The quality seems to be good and shipping etc was just fine.
+565,1,MAJOR WASTE OF TIME!!!!!!!,"I cannot believe I just wasted several hours of my life reading this totally unbelievable trash. My friend recommended this book to me, saying it made her cry, that it was really good. Sorry, but the only tears I shed were the ones that came as I laughed hysterically over the shallow, unlikable characters and the simplistic, predictable plotline etc. I loved most of Judy Blume's books when I was growing up but this was just BAD!!!! Are you sure she really wrote it???!!!???"
+566,1,this is an old silent movie - and it aint charlie chaplin,"What else can I say? I didn't realize when I clicked on this prime offering that it was a silent film - wouldn't have stopped me if it was good, I do watch subtitled films from time to time. But this thing had me annoyed at the opening credits. They lingered on the screen so long I could have got pen and ink and done all that calligraphy meself. And on the calligraphy - JIMINY- could they have made it harder to read? Kudos if u can hang on through this mess."
+567,2,Where Are We??,"In our Freshman Engilsh class we were assigned to read the book Night by Elie Wiesel. When we began to read Night it seemed to be very dragged on, but with in about 15 pages it started to get more intresting. Soon after that we could not take our eyes away from the book. We were so into the book that none of us wanted to put it down. This book gave us a vivid feeling of how the Jews felt while going through the Holocaust. The episode that captured our atttention the most was when the Jews where getting beaten. Jews felt unhuman, dogs were treated better than them. We rate this book a 5 because it was such a good book and we would love to read the sequals to Night by Elie Wiesel."
+568,1,Never again,AT&T had the best coverage in Oklahoma that I have ever had in a phone company. That is the only good thing from them. They charged me and extra ten bucks a month for a service I didn't ask for or want. They (and Verizon) are the most expensive plans. Their customer service blows. They are currently trying to get money for a month of service I never had. I had an iphone for over a year. I love my iphone. I love it. I hate AT&T. I will never return to them. If they were a person I would wish their child was born with Downs. I went to t-mobile with my iphone and paid $30 less a month for the roughly same plan without a contract. That is $660 over a two year contract. I found out AT&T was going to buy T-Mobile and I'm now happily on Virgin. I pay $25 a month. I might move up to the $40 plan. That is still less than half what I would have paid AT&T.
+569,1,Disappointment,"I was very frustrated with this novel. The story went no where and had no meaning. Even to the end of the book, I was bored. There was no drama or excitement, just an average child-like tale about a crazy mom. We've all been there, done that. Basically, nothing special."
+570,1,broke in my hand,"Very pretty, hold enough garlicmoderately easy to cleanCONS: plunger poor fit to basket, garlic comes out sides of pressBROKE IN MY HAND where handle meets basket, rather a deal breaker to me"
+571,2,Great little scanner,"This is a nice little scanner. It is small, scans nicely, easy to install and use... I have Vista, and it wasn't really any problem to install the software. i can't speak about the software b/c I don't use it much (I import into Photoshop), but it looks pretty simple to use. The push buttons are a breeze to use. I use this for my small business as my primary scanner and it works nicely. Good value overall..."
+572,1,THIS PAGE IS WRONG.,"If you are buying this DVD on Amazon because availability says download now, DON'TThis software is not available for download! I purchased it; called support 3 times before I finally got an answer that the page is wrong. PLUS they refused to give me a refund, because it is NON-refundable. They make a mistake and the customer eats the cost...."
+573,1,why rush babies to eat mush?,"This book is better than jarred baby food, but not much. Babies should be breastfed for at least the first year, and offered solids when they become interested. If you have to grind it up and mush it to give it to them, they are probably too young to want it anyway. Skip the grinders, food processors and freezer trays and just wait until your baby wants the food you are eating"
+574,2,Awesome,"I loved this SO much, I was sad when I finished it. But I didn't stay sad for long because it had such a good ending. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes mysteries!"
+575,1,Not what I was looking for,"I found this book more helpful for the actual packing/moving process than I did for the Seattle-specific location. I like the checklist of things to do before you move and the timeline for when to handle certain moving-related tasks. However, I was not very impressed with the information on Seattle. The descriptions of the neighborhoods seemed romanticized, as if the author were trying to poetically display this extreme personality and contrast to each section. I'm not convinced they are accurate descriptions. I was also expecting a lot of information on the city--downtown, the traffic, the weather, etc.--and I was quite disappointed.I would recommend looking into another book, or buying this one used for 46 cents as I did."
+576,1,Braun KF600,"I felt this unit made a good cup of coffee and is very nice looking. However,the measure of 10cups is overstated, my current ""8"" cup coffee maker brews the same amount of coffee, if not a little more. For seventy dollars I feel it should include a timer. Also, the unit doesn't come with a pitcher for filling the reservoir. I can only assume that the coffee pot should be used, which make for a slow cumbersome fill."
+577,2,Great Book,This is a great book written in moderately complex writing for most 8th or 9th graders. It has a fascinating storyline while catching readers with a stunning mix of suspense and gripping action. I would recommend this for those who are looking for a good book they can't put down.
+578,1,Would not recommend,I found this hard to use. It dyed my skin better than it did my eyebrow hairs. I would not purchase again.
+579,2,Delicious!,"I love this book! We've already successfully made yogurt with the info gleaned from this book, and are now trying to get our hands on some kombucha mother ...The book is easily readable and PACKED with useful and interesting data.Sandor Ellix Katz is the king of cultures! The master of molds! Very excellent book ... get it!"
+580,2,It was what I needed,The charger came within a few days of my ordering it. I liked the informative instructions that were included with this charger. Not many customers would even think about measuring the voltage of a charger before attaching to their battery. The probability of damaging the battery is high when the charger is shorted or malfunctioning. This simple practise can save one from being frustrated and disappointed.
+581,1,Not good at all,"I was very dissappointed in this DVD. It advertises ""1000's of Hours"" but you can only program 20 minutes of cardio at a time. I have other customizable DVD's and you are able to program at least 45 minutes of cardio. Because of the misadvertising, I give this 1 star"
+582,2,Great Jars for storing Oil Paints!!,"I purchased a set of these jars for storing my oil paints. As a professional oil painter, nothing is more frustrating than trying to squeeze oil paint out of an uncooperative tube. I thought I would try something different and purchased these jars to store my oil paints. Not only have the oil paints remained ""fresh"" with every time I open the jar, I have not had to put them in the freezer, which is what I used to have to do with my palette of unused oil paint after every session at my easel. These jars are great! They have a perfect, air-tight seal and have helped me to not only preserve my oil paints, but it is easier to see the colors, how much I have used, and it is easy to scoop out just what I need with a palette knife and return unused oil paint back to its container. If you are an oil painter, I highly recommend these jars for storing your oil paints.Susan Vaughn[...]"
+583,1,Buy Wet Ones instead,"I bought Dove Body Refreshers last summer, hoping they would be a nice pick me up in the middle of the day when my body was oily or sweaty. This product comes in Fresh Scent and Original Scent, and I have the Original Scent. I did not enjoy this product for a few reasons. When I used the wipes on my face and neck, I still felt oily. Since the product is called Body Refreshers with moisturizer, I assumed it would be a cleansing wipe that moisturized as well (this is why I thought I could use it on my face too). However, these wipes do not make me feel clean. After using one of the cloths, I only feel like I've put perfume over sweat. I prefer Wet Ones to this product, because Wet Ones take away the oily/grimy feeling without drying me out, and Wet Ones are antibacterial. The Dove moisturizers are not meant to use as a wipe for hands (unlike Wet Ones), which is disappointing.Conclusion: These wipes did not make me feel clean, and they are too heavily perfumed."
+584,2,Great Gift for My Grandson,I really liked the idea behind this piggy bank to teach the next generations a bit about delayed gratification and saving for the future. Everyone knows that this is the job of parents to teach this to their children. This piggy bank is a great teaching tool.
+585,1,SMELLS LIKE GAS!!,"I ordered this cover because i bought one previously from auto zone for my old car and love this kind of cover because ofthe grip, now i cant find them anywhere. HOWEVER, when i got the cover i opened it and it had a heavy chemical smell to it so i left it out side the wednesday before thanksgiving till now ( over a week later), and needless to say the cover still has a strong chemical smell!!! even though the smell was not as bad, when i tried to put it in my car (sebring limited coupe), my car filled with he toxic smell of the cover!! i don't like the smell, and im going to go to the store and see if i can find the cover there. ill pay $2 more at the store, if that saves me from this death defying smell. I CANT TAKE IT!!! it also has my hands smelling like whatever chemical they soaked it in b4 sending. Im very disappointed!!!"
+586,2,A Boy and His Dog,I saw this movie when it was first released and several times since then. I have never forgotten the movie nor have I failed to recommend it to friends while discussing what we felt were cult classics. This movie is still one of my favorites and I never tire of seeing it.
+587,1,Doesn't stick to leather/fabric AT ALL - don't waste your $$$.,"Useless. This was suggested to me to prevent my cat from scratching my leather chair, and it doesn't stick at all. If I even lightly touch it, it sticks to my finger and falls off the chair. Now I remember trying this on a fabric chair 4-5 years ago to keep my kitten from scratching and I remember it didn't work on fabric either. Useless stuff, don't waste your money - find another solution. In the meantime I have the vacuum cleaner against the corner of the chair she likes to scratch... that works better than this."
+588,1,"dated film, poor plot","I watched this with my three adult daughters. We generally enjoy period pieces, especially WWII titles. Because we are fans of Tom Hanks, we chose this film for a long awaited girls afternoon. I purchased the movie because I was so sure it would be bear repeated viewings. We all disliked the film. The heroine is completely inconsistent - totally unbelievable. We kept watching hoping that it would get better... it didn't. Not only will we not watch it again, but it has become a sort of slang measurement for how bad a movie is."
+589,1,cracked canisters,the canisters are great looking and I would have loved them in my kitchen accept after receiving two sets of them broken they would not ship me anymore so needless to say I still don't have a set they told me to order another color well that wouldn't work in my kitchen and after all there still ceramic what makes them think I wouldn't have this problem again. Not knocking the product just the way of shipping it
+590,1,Save your money....,"My daughter is 9 and has a learning disability. I was looking for something to help her with the painful process of remembering so many numbers. This CD is absolutely horrible. Think bad 80s rock multiplied by 100 = total waste of money. It actually made me kind of angry it was so bad. I feel like I've been taken advantage of. Trying to help your kid make it in school is such an emotional thing. I've spent a lot of money on therapy and teaching tools for my daughter - often at the expensive of other important things- because of the disability. I'm happy to pay the price for well made quality tools. This is so bad it's like they didn't even try to make a quality product.The rap version is much, much better, though not great.I gave it one star because all the math hidden under the music is correct.In the future, I'll be avoiding all the products put out by this company. Lesson learned."
+591,2,A product that does what it advertises,"This is my first experience with dehydrators but I wanted to make Deer Jerky so bad that I bought this one after looking a lot thorugh the different models. This is a basic, no frills model but it seemed to do the job very nicely. I do not know what the more expensice models give you but I doubt if much more. The meat was dehydrated in 5-7 hours and it came out perfect.Negatives: The fan is loud and could be heard from other rooms. A nice feature to have would have been a built in timer instead of having to buy an external one."
+592,1,lesson in the depravity of man,"As I opened this book, I thought to myself ""Wow! This seems like a great story!"" I found myself growing more depressed and disgusted with every page. Although the style and Marquez' technique are unquestionably wonderful, the overlaying themes of lust, lack of self-control, and immorality outweighed the good. The goal of nearly very character's life is the same; to please him or herself. Very few characters are in the least bit caring of self-sacrificing. The only way I could reconcile myself to reading this disapointing work was the fact that it is a lesson in man's depravity. I realized that every person, without God's intervention, is just as bad or worse than Marquez' perverse characters. The book is not without its high points- I loved the ending, the mystery of the Segundo twins, and Ursula's strength. There are some passages where the language is incredible. Marquez is a mastery of imagery! I only wish that there had been more positive images to remember...."
+593,1,This thing is a joke.,"This thing is a joke--perhaps it was intended for a child's toy? I tried mixing 2 eggs with a little milk for an omelet, and it struggled with that simple task. I could not think of any practical task for it, so I finally decided to removed my batteries (they, at least, were worth something) and banish it to the ""junk drawer"". While removing the batteries the thing fell apart in my hands, so I just chucked it into the trash.This contraption should be a total embarrassment to the Chinese who made it and to Amazon who sold it.My advise? Save your money. Do not buy this ""mixer"". If you need a cordless mixer, you might instead consider a Gizmo cordless mixer by Black and Decker. We have had one for years. Ours worked quite well for light mixing jobs until the rechargeable battery finally packed it in. I ordered and got a new one from Amazon, who should NOT be embarassed for selling it."
+594,2,Great Vocals,He has an amazing voice... Captivating even! Sounds like Josh Groban... With a Christian theme. I love this CD!
+595,1,Terrible Quality,"I usually LOVE Verbatim discs. This spindle however is terrible. So far, 20 coasters that aren't even recognized (using OS X, LION, Tried two burners). WASTE OF MONEY."
+596,1,Delightful craziness,"I really enjoyed this book for the outright silliness of it. God forbid my daughter should ever see it. The only thing that dampened my enjoyment was the thought that someone might actually take it seriously. We're Christian and respect a diversity of viewpoints but, wow, this thing is nuts."
+597,1,Sales pitch for his show,"Not impressed, seemed to be nothing more than a sales pitch for himself and his show.Read like a rap song, how great he is. If you have to sell yourself that hard, you have self-esteem issue.Can get the same tips by just watching his show. But then, what would you expect from someone on CNN."
+598,1,disappointed,"when I recieved this nailer I hooked it up and tested it and it worked after a few tries. But when I got on the roof to shingle with it, it never shot a nail."
+599,1,This book is tedious!,I read this book in a couple of sittings only because half of the book tediously explained the first day! I wanted to get to the substance of the book & it never came. I agree with the critics - it was flat.
+600,2,Great Lessons Learned,"The Star Fisher is not what I expected it to be. I thought the girl on the cover, who was leaning on a fence, was a farm girl. Instead, she turned out to be a laundry man's daughter. Reading this book was a pure enjoyment. Laurence Yep wrote a very enchanting story. On every page the family finds more and more ways to live and fit in. I recommend this novel to people ages 8 and up. The Star Fisher is very fascinating, once you enter, you come to appreciate what Joan went through. If you read this book you will enjoy it!!!"
+601,1,disappointed!,"We waited for months for this to be released and we were thrilled that it finally shipped. Unfortunately, we had problems with it from the start. The installation crashed my machine. Then, once it installed, running the game crashed my machine. It works intermittently, but it does work, so decided to keep it. My daughter is 2, and is definitely young for the game, but I don't think it will keep her attention even when she's older. It's extremely slow and clunky too. Overall, I'm just really unhappy with the whole thing. The only thing going for it is that it's Olie! And, of course, the characters in the show are cute."
+602,1,Heavy...,"When began the book, showed it very interesting, but along the chapters was heavy, long and not finished read it."
+603,2,Perfect!,Book came in perfect condition and MUCH earlier than expected. I am very happy with the product and I would definitely buy from them again!
+604,2,Mandatory Reading,"I have been a police officer for about 13 years and have always been fascinated with police service dogs. About 4 years ago I became actively involved as a K-9 officer. I purchased a German Shepherd dog from the Czech Republic and trained him as a dual purpose patrol/narcotic dog. I can't count the number of books I have read or the number of videos I have watched related to dogs and their training. A friend of mine suggested ""A Dog's Mind"". As other reviews said this is not neccessarily a training manual but it gives a great insight into just how the dog's mind works and how the dog relates to his surroundings. Should I ever have the opportunity to supervise a K-9 unit I would make this book required reading for all K-9 handlers. I highly recommend this book to any and all who work with service animals and to those who just want to better understand why Fido barks at the mailman or eats your shoes."
+605,1,Don't waste your time,"This could've been so much better, given the cast, the eye candy throughout the film, and even if they'd tried a little harder on the story line. But this was so incredibly lame - I'd give it a lower rating than one star if I could. Don't waste your time on this one."
+606,2,a treasure in a travel book,"I just finished reading the chapter entitled ""The Country and Its People"" in Traveler's Philippines Companion. I consider it to be one of the best, if not the very best, accounts and analyses of the history of a nation that I've ever read. My wife, who is Filipino, said it is easily superior in breadth and depth to what she learned in school. Impressively, it accomplishes this in a most succinct fashion. I never expected to find such a treasure in a travel book. I now feel much enlightened on the subject and therefore well primed to appreciate the country I'm about to visit."
+607,2,great all around watch,"I really like this watch, a nice one, very light with the Ti; not a major name brand (but you save hundreds (or thousands).It's also a good midrange size, if you don't have huge wrists and arms to fit some of the giant watches out there.Overall, a nice quality swiss watch you can wear for work, out or for sport."
+608,1,"A ""Pearl"" of great price it is not!","After hearing all the hype for this movie, I was extremely disappointed. They had a great opportunity to make an epic movie and squandered it. I'm sure there were enough real life stories at Pearl Harbor that day that would have been more interesting than the bogus love story they went with."
+609,1,"WHY WB, WHY???","Ok, hands down Justice league is one of the best animated DC show ever put on TV. And with Lustice League Unlimited on the way, its going to be even better. Who wouldn't want to collect this shows on DVD. Now on the next matter, I've noticed how everybody else commented on the number of episodes on this DVD and other ones like it. Technically its only 2 epsisodes if you put the part 1's and part 2's together. I wouldn't mind paying $80 - $100 for each season if WB puts it out. The reason I gave this DVD only 2 stars is only because of the number of episodes in this DVD. Each individual episodes are 5 star worthy but if WB keeps on doing this, its not only gonna lose its fan base but also is going to lose its viewers eventually. Its about time to put out the seasonal box sets. DO THE RIGHT THING PEOPLE."
+610,2,squeeze coin purse 2,"I lost a squeeze coin purse recently. I bought two to replace it, in case I lose one in the future. It holds lots of coins, but is compact and easy to use."
+611,1,Could have been better,Why is it that no one has ever written a study book which does not include verbosity? That does clearly indicate where in the examples they are referring to? That has download examples that can be easily referenced? This book sets out to solve all that but fails - dissapointed.
+612,2,I have a question,"I just bought a Nikon D80 and dont know much about cameras but love Photography, my question is Can I use this flash with my D80?"
+613,1,Groucho was right!,"Save your money and for sure don't buy this book! The only funny thing stated in this book was from Groucho Marx. He said, ""From the moment I picked your book up until I laid it down I was convulsed with laughter. Someday I intend reading it."" In respect for Groucho, I would have this to say to him, I read the book and there was nothing funny or laughable except for your quote."
+614,1,"Very Hard to Use, Unlike Earlier Versions","This is the classic example of software sprawl. This program is a space hog, taking up more and more of your hard drive, and more and more of your RAM. In return, you get sales pitches for, and links to, other Microsoft products. If you like Front Page, which I do, stick with the old version. The new version will slow you down, and waste your time."
+615,1,A Great Disappointment,"This is a big book, ambitious in intent, but the task was not carried out with sufficient thoroughness. Indeed, the author is quite amateurish in the manner in which he dismisses a number of very distinguished pianists in a few unenlightening lines and devotes several pages to others. Less than half the book is given over to pianists anyway: the larger second part lists the major compositions of composers for the piano followed by a list of the author's recommended versions. I didn't find this very enlightening or helpful.Finally, Dubal should have spared us his portaits of a number of pianists: they really are hideous and amateurish in the extreme."
+616,1,this product is horrible it broke within minutes,"do not buy this you will be wasting your time and money, it takes hours to charge and is very fragile"
+617,1,Kindle edition is terrible,"There's probably no way to succesfully format this type of book for the Kindle (perhaps on the DX), and Amazon should have the sense to not publish one."
+618,2,Model Railroading in Small Spaces,This is an excellent overview of what is involved with setting up and running a layout in limited space. The author gives plenty of options and details of what is involved without preaching. I've read seven books on the topic and this was by far the easiest reading.
+619,1,IT AIN'T PRETTY ARTISAN!,ARTISAN loves to put out lousy substandard dvds and apparantly they think no one either notices or cares. Let's see...SLEEPLESS by DARIO ARGENTO...and this great movie JOHNNY HANDSOME which I WON'T BE BUYING until they put out a decent version. I was gonna buy this today as a matter of fact and immediately put it back when I saw it was full-screen. YAWN...wake up ARTISAN...please!!
+620,1,Spare me,"Those of you who compare Brooks to Tolkien are totally wrong. There is no comparism between them. Tolkien is great, and Brook's books are have no real plot, no character development, and are downright boring. You're insulting Tolkien by comparing Brooks to this guy. If you want to read a book you can really call fantasy read Terry Goodkind, Robert Jordan, or David Eddings. Then come back and compare Brooks to Tolkien. People who do so have no reading experiance, and should not be writing reviews about it."
+621,1,Incompatible with DVRs / TiVos / things with hard drives,"Seems like the spinning hard drive inside my TiVo interfered with the signal. In any case, there was perpetual loud static when in use that never let up, making it unusable. It probably says somewhere that hard drives interfere with it, but it would be nice if something was more explicitly written somewhere, like ""Does not work with DVRs.""""Unisar."" Guess I should have gone with a genuine Panaphonics, or a Magnetbox or Sorny.Anyway, I just gave it away to Goodwill."
+622,1,Unbelievable****And NOT in a good way!!!!,"I would not normally take time to do this but I feel I should save anyone I can on this one.DONT DO IT...Step away from the VCR...I rented this movie because I was hoping to (honestly) =P see some action with Mena Suvari! Well, I was painfully disappointed!! The movie is not only poorly written and directed but the acting could probably be smelt three counties away during filming. Although I do like several of the actors, they were, by far, at their worst. The only moment in the entire movie that was worth the strain to focus your eyes, was when Joey, played by Bob Hoskins, was tied up, tortured, and ""revived"" by his wife. If you've seen it you know what I mean, if you haven't, it's not worth it!If you still feel the need to see this movie, please rent it! (And make sure you rent at least one other title to watch after you turn this one off in the first 10 minutes.)Hope this helps=)..."
+623,2,The Beloved Dearly,The Beloved Dearly is about 4 kids that start funerals for pets. Pet owners give them money and their dead pet for a funeral. The best part about this book is that one of the kid's names is Swimming Pool and she is very emotional during the funerals. This story is very humorous and is great to read. It will make you laugh.
+624,1,"Let me see, which world is this?","This not a story of something happening, or of people (or Spirits) doing something, but of characters standing around postulating. (Very British, I guess.) When you hear the terms the ages of Mouldwrap and Witspell you think Harry Potter Universe. But you're wrong. When you get to the part where Plato is listing his definitions, you think this will get better, it's a set up, like Douglas Adams in the Hitchhiker Books, preparing to hit you with strings of belly laughs. Wrong, some people might think Ackroyd is funny or a wit. No, he's not. Plato's world seems to be built of elements scoured from Asimov's Nightfall and Brin's The Practice Effect. If this is British satire, well then, back to Monty Python."
+625,2,Book Review of 7Steps to a Pain-Free Life,This book was written in a clear and straight foward style and packed with invaluable information for back and neck pain sufferers.The no nonsense approach was not only inspirational but had practical and achievable suggestions and very specific exsercise and life style directions to better achieve pain releif from back and neck problems.Great book!
+626,1,Not Durable,"I have installed two of these switches in my laundry room over the course of about 5 years. They are easy to install and work well but after about a year to a year and a half, they break. One just stopped working after a about a year and a half (I think the internal electronics fried) and the manual switch on the second one broke after about two years so it only works in ""Motion Activated"" mode.I got aggravated after having spent $40 a piece and called Leviton to make them aware of the problems I was having. Thier customer service rep (Sonya) didn't seem to care one bit about my problems with thier product.So..I will not be buying another. They must not be designed for ""high use"" rooms. I'll go back to a good old ""on/off"" switch. Thanks Leviton for taking my $80 and leaving me with two broken switches."
+627,2,Sweet,Love these boots. They are very comfortable. I wear them without sock and they keep my feet nice and warm.
+628,2,Another Filtercharger,"Vendor shipped quickly and it installed as it's supposed to. I have these in 5 of my 8 cars, the others having cold-air intakes, so I knew what to expect. From my somewhat extensive experience, I find that this K&N does nothing noticeable for performance or fuel economy. For these improvements, a cold-air intake is the way to go. I live in a dry dessert environment and keep my vehicles for a long time so I purchase these because they're washable and leave me confident that good filtration takes place."
+629,2,Perfection,"I love every track on this CD, just like I love every track on all the Liz Story CDs I own. It's a permanent part of my holiday season."
+630,1,very different book,i think that this book was very diffent. and that it was very hard to understand. most of the book i wasnt really sure what was going on just that he was magical and that he was in the past. there was definitly a twisted ending but thats ok. if i had a choice i probably wouldnt have read this book and read a different book on the list but oh well i got the pages i needed out of it.
+631,2,It rocks!,"This is one of the best cd's i have ever bought and when i first heard it i thought it sucked , but once i listened to it it grew onto me , although people think this ong sucks , but i think that""Blast off to Nowhere"" is the best song , also Tonight The Stars Revolt is an awesome song. This CD is awesome!Nuff said................."
+632,1,Two stars is being nice,"I read this book in eighth grade. It's been a couple years since then, but every time I'm looking for an example of a book with terrible dialogue, I pull out ""A Farewell To Arms"". I was actually beginning to become interested in Ernest Hemingway, but reading this book totally put me in direct opposition to him. First of all, the story is weak. Some books with weak story lines have outstanding character developement and a profound moral truth hidden in them - suffice it to say that this book has neither. All I can say is please stay away from this book... you'll glean nothing of value from it."
+633,2,"College-level students will find it a challenging, exciting read.","College-level collections strong in philosophy will appreciate this blend of philosophy and sociology, which considers systems, society, and Niklas Luhmann's sociological theories in particular, which departs from many competing concepts in explaining how economics and mass media evolve. From biology to philosophy and other genres, LUHMANN EXPLAINED analyzes the fundamentals of world society and its logical systems. College-level students will find it a challenging, exciting read.Diane C. DonovanCalifornia Bookwatch"
+634,1,Organize the organizer,"This book has some helpful hints for helping students to be better organized, but the book itself is poorly organized. It didn't need to be nearly so long. It seemed as if the author felt the need to justify writing the book by fluffing the first chapters with fillers. I was constantly thinking ""just get to the point already"". Also, some of the comments about going to your child's school to help clean out lockers is just not realistic. Likewise, the recommendations to wait until your child is ready to cooperate are not really helpful. As a teacher, the demands on students today to get organized and stay on track and up-do-date are overwhelming.Connecting with your child's teacher and forming a partnership is the best way to communicate to the student that we are all in this together, and there really are few alternatives to ""getting it together"". Patience and gentle but firm prodding are the order of the day most days."
+635,1,...what,"i dont understand, regardless of how ""punk"" you are, how you should be happy about 9/11. all that did was create a vehicle for people to go and launch a war and take away our as well as other's freedoms! random listenings/probings...dead people the world over...the draft bill thats in the process of being passed (which will almost definitely make it thru cuz we're in a ""time of war"") so we can go invade iranand this is a good thing? bullshit"
+636,1,faulty DVD,"I ordered this DVD set because I am a huge fan of the show, but I don't subscribe to Showtime. Everything was great until I got to the final disc. This disc advertises that it contains the 10th episode as well as trailers for other Showtime productions. I never could get to the 10th episode. I tried viewing all the other offerings including registering for give aways and still could not open the 10th episode. To me, this disc set turned out to be nothing more than ads for Showtime. I returned the disc set for a full refund, which by the way, I STILL have not received from Amazon even after numerous reassurances that they have given me (it still hasn't shown up where they said they put it). If you want to watch The Tudors, my advice will be to sign up for Showtime, otherwise they're gonna rip you off!!"
+637,2,Wonderful for spoken word and podcasting...,"After using countless large diaphragm condenser mics over the years, I've settled on the Beta 87a and the Beta 58a for my vocal work.I've produced podcasts, spoken word pieces and voiceovers with both of these microphones with superb results with hardly any EQ needed. (You can listen to samples at blog.visitronix.com)Neither one of these mics will let you down. I highly recommend them!"
+638,2,Saved our marriage,This is the best. My hubby can watch T.V. and I don't have to listen to it. It is one of the best products I have ever purchased. He was impressed that he could walk to the bathroom and still hear his shows!
+639,2,madea's family reunion the movie,"Madea's family reunion the movie is an excellent movie to go see.The reason I say this is because is was funny, and very educational when it comes to real life.A must see movie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
+640,2,Unbelievably good,"The prior review gives you details regarding the book. If you enjoy epic books with many climaxes, turns and twists, this is a book for you. It's as good as any book I have ever read."
+641,1,Incorrect information,"The information posted is incorrect: it is not a humidity-sensing fan and the sound level is not 0.7 Sones, it's much higher. This is the Broan 670 fan. Check the external web site and/or Broan for the correct information."
+642,2,Some of the best comedy available,"""I know what you're thinking."" Eliot turns to look at JD.""You're butt looks like two pringles wrestling,"" JD thinks.""No you don't,"" he states, straight faced but with eyes wide.I love this show. As someone who has all but turned away from network television, I didn't see this show until the third season. While I missed some great shows, I did have the blessing of watching the whole season for the first time, commercial free and during my favorite time of the day.The humor is fresh and the frequent views into what the characters are really thinking allows us to connect with the well-developed characters. It's hard not to love nearly every one of the regulars.If you've seen the first season already, buy this now; if you haven't seen it, buy this now and get next day shipping."
+643,1,Disappointed with Dummies,"I bought this book and The New Marine Aquarium: Step-By-Step Setup & Stocking Guide by Michael S. Paletta in order to plan my new saltwater aquarium. The Paletta book is fantastic, up to date and is everything a beginner could want. The dummies book still pushes the undergravel filter as the best method for filtration. About a dozen websites that I checked dissagree. That's my major problem with this book. Having read both books over the course of two nights, I was astounded by how little information you actually get from this book. No subject is given in enough detail, even for a beginner's book. You will see my copy on ebay soon."
+644,2,Pretty special...,"I'm presently working my way through PA school, and this book has a ring to it I can't seem to keep out of my ears. Each new situation or patient I'm with brings back the words Selzer uses to present his stories. I'd strongly recommend it as a gift to those in MD or PA school--besides being outstanding writing, its fun to see the many ways medicine has changed, coupled with the countless ways it remains the same. Read especially ""A Pint of Blood""...no matter how many times I read it, it still has me laughing."
+645,1,Don't purchase if you intend to migrate to 10g,"This book contains a lot of material regarding BC4J and the jDeveloper IDE. Unfortunately, BC4J has been deprecated in 10g. [...]"
+646,1,Bad movie,Not worth the money I paid. I was really disappointed. Does not deserve a star. It is Not worth it.
+647,1,don't waste your time or money,"the top layer that has the picture of the animal printed on it is nothing more than lightly laminated paper. my daughter put one in her mouth (you know, how every kid puts everything in their mouth) and literally within 30 seconds, she had chunks of colored paper in her mouth. fell apart instantly. AVOID THIS PRODUCT!!!"
+648,1,"Awful, Waste of Time","As a young American interested in New Zealand, I ended up feeling sorry for the Kiwis that this guy emigrated there. He comes off as a pretentious, sniveling liberal, and his warped political ideology permeates throughout the entire book. It was creepy for me to read about his young wife, annoying to sit through his constant name-dropping (as if anyone cares who you went to Harvard with, dude) and almost unbearable to trudge through his sick liberal fawning. Here's an evolutionist torn over whether or not trees have feelings. That sadness you get because a forest was cleared? That's because you are a created being with a connection to nature. At age 63, this guy has learned nothing. And his writing is so boring. I almost wanted to visit New Zealand less knowing he is there. Sigh."
+649,1,Hmm.....,"As others have said: I really wanted to like it (though I'm NOT a fan of Meryl Streep; I usually avoid her movies!!), but the stereotypes...whining, whimpering, diseased, self-hating, self-sacrifying, promiscuous gay men!! I mean, I'm gay myself, and I couldn't relate to ANY of the characters, they're so far from what I am and what I have experienced...and that's something of a miss, when there are so many gay characters in one play!! If only I could relate any of them to some of my friends, but no...another miss. And WHY do they always have to show gay men 1)in drag (I hate drags!! They bore the c**p out of me!!) and 2) befriend whimpering, screwed-up females??Less than one star..."
+650,1,Nads is an Australian word for Painful,"Messy, extremely painful, and after all that screaming it left enough hair that I shaved my legs 2 days later (after the swelling went down) Those Aussie women must be from tough stock to use this junk on their armpits or bikini lines. Crikey!"

+652,1,"King Arthur, President","In ""One Knight Only"" Arthur Penn (the King Arthur modernized) once again must go on a quest for the Holy Grail to save the live of his wife Gwen (King Arthur's queen reincarnated).Slightly less humorous and a few shades darker than the first installment in David's trilogy, Arthur faces the legendary Gilgamesh in an effort to capture the Holy Grail. David obviously has researched his legendary characters, but those less versed in world mythology may be left slightly in the dark.My major problem with this novel was the use of italics passages for what I felt unapparent reasons. It disrupts the story and changes the tense of the story. All in all, though, it's worth a read, and I will be purchasing the third book in the series."
+653,1,Beware electrical GFI doesn't work!,"I have purchased three of these hairdryers for my home and was very fond of the performance until yesterday. One of the dryers stopped working completely, while another not in the master bathroom outlet. I called our electrician to see if the outlet was having a problem which it was not. While plugging in one of the dryers, a huge flame shot out of the GFI plug and burned completely through the cord. The GFI cord did not work and there was luckily some minimal damange to the walls. Please be careful and make sure you have a GFI outlet installed in your home where you use this product. The electrician believed that the GFI on the hair dryer failed and the cord was risky for electrical fire.Be careful..."
+654,1,highly disappointed,"Thought it was going to be much funnier than it was. Funny parts, just an ok movie. Wouldn't watch again"
+655,2,If you buy only one book....,Buy this book...you will make money if you follow the advise to go with index funds...skip the brokers and money managers...they are salespeople trying to hack out a living.
+656,2,This is the kind of classic lititure that ought to be taught in high school,"This was an amazing work of literary art. Normally I am not a huge fan of short stories, but this collection was excellent. Each story is just long enough to get to the point and then haunts you after you read it. There is always that final moment summing up what actually happened to give you the chills."
+657,2,What would you do to survive?,"There really isn’t much need for a nuclear war…just cut the electricity and see what happens to society. Could you survive? What would you do to survive?Great story, excellent acting…makes you think! We can’t wait for the new episodes!"
+658,1,OUCH!,"Maybe they get better later ... in ten years or so ... but for now, nothing could even start to describe this product. I'm not talking about their service, but the actual coverage itself isn't good. You will be very disappointed when it's already too late!It will cost you WAY MORE THAN OTHER COMPANIES TO CANCEL so make sure you're keeping it for at least a year!"
+659,2,Seelenschmerz [BlutEngel],"A really wicked CD that the denizens of the night can party to.It boasts some of the coolest dance tracks out there for the gothic culture.My favorite track is ""Children Of The Night"",a marching song for vampires.Awesome!"
+660,2,Dovey Coe,"I liked Dovey Coe. I liked because it was good and had a little bit of mystery. Dovey Coe is a girl who pretty much speaks her mind. Some parts are very good and some are sad.She has an older sister that is beautiful and uses her charm to get things.Parnellloves Caroline.She has an older brother Amos and he's deaf.Dovey is a 12.She hates Parnell and Paris Caraway.Her trial awaites her. If you liked this review, you should read the book."
+661,2,The French Bulldog: An Owner's Guide to a Happy Healthy Pet,"This is truly a must for anyone interested in French Bulldogs, especially newcomers to the breed! In the author's presentation, she made it evident about how much fun Frenchies are, but spelled out all of the concerns an owner should have. Great subject matter and coverage, but concise and simply stated! The last part needed to be directed more toward the French Bulldog, not just a generic application. This section did not take anything away from the book as a whole. I will use my copy to read and to share with others that are new to the world of French Bulldogs! This book is well worth the reasonable cost!"
+662,2,Great for small bathrooms.,"We have a half bath that is roughly the size of a small closet. We do not have a counter top next to the sink and there is really no place to put a soap dispenser that isn't mounted to the wall. This product was the perfect height and width for the spot on the wall that is available. It dispenses a perfect amount of soap for washing your hands, not too much and not too little. The dispenser button is easy enough to push and my kids do not have a problem using it.The only thing I didn't like was that it didn't come with hardware to screw it onto the wall. That option would be great because I want to paint in that bathroom but haven't really decided what color I want to paint it. I was able to get it installed without too much hassle (just make sure you use flat screws).So far worth the money that I spent."
+663,1,Beware!!!,"You can get one pack (2count) at Kroger for .97 and at walmart for .94 and if you are signed up for coupons you get $1 off 3 or 4 packages. These are price slightly high. If you like convince of not leaving your home, then go for it."

I didn't believe. I don't think you should either do your own research on protocel with your doctor."
+666,1,"Um, Aphex Twin....","This album is the predictable jump to electronic texturing that has already been mastered by Aphex Twin. Any music fanatic knows that this album is not an album at all. It should be labeled as Radiohead's experimental b-sides that dont break any new ground. This is far more unoriginal than Ok, and too repetitive for Radiohead's true songwriting capabilities."
+667,1,Gaming Spot,"I've already given a review from my purchase of the piece of junk from the""Gaming Spot"".If the ""Gaming Spot"" wants to credit my account first(around $70) ...$69.98 to be exact-for the piece of junk+shipping that I spent,fine.Trust works both ways.I trusted them in the 1st place,but they mislead me about their claims of the product+will probably continue to do the same with other consumers"
+668,2,FROM BACK COVER,"With a shattering blow to Miranda Bennett's young heart, Gabriel Deerhorn had extinguished their tender love. A wise soul, he'd known nave Miranda needed independence more than matrimony. Suddenly she was back in Freedom valley.. and her nearness was both torment and treasure. For once, gallant Gabriel fed his own desire - he settled Miranda into his mountaintop home, and with a single, tenuous touch, their passion was reborn. Could it be that their thwarted past was just a stepping-stone to their radiant future...?"
+669,2,Excellent Gaming Speakers,"This product has excellent sound quality. With the great surround sound that sounds so realistic. The quality of the product itself is great. Speakers are solid and have a quality feel to them when you handle them. Plus the corded remote is great for instant sound adjustments. So far I beleive that this is one of the best gaming, movie, and music speakers yet."
+670,2,Very Happy - But Consider Adding 8 Iced Tea Spoons,"The set is very nice, have had for over a year now and they still are on good condition, as expected.I like them enough that today, I'm purchasing another 42-piece set to increase my settings from 8 to 16 to keep one matching set as well as 1 hostess set and 8 iced tea spoons.The downside of this set compared to some other lower end items is there are no ""special"" items are included in the box aside from the large fork & spoon. If you want to stir drinks or other stuff, the short dessert spoons are not long enough to accomplish this. I recommend buying 2 sets of 4 iced tea spoons to accompany this set."
+671,1,Burns batteries better than a bonfire,"I have owned this camera for about 18 months and have been buying Kodak products for 50 years. Never again. Battery live was marginal when the camera was new. Now, the camera shuts down after two or three pictures, even with new batteries or newly charged batteries. If you buy this camera, you will likely regret it. Kodak should have recalled these because the battery problem is rampant. I wrote to Kodak and, based on the response, I would say that Kodak just doesn't care."
+672,2,"Great resource, in good shape, just a bit out of date","The book showed up earlier than projected and was in very good shape. I failed to notice how old it was, yet I got a real bargain. Still extremely useful reference. I use it constantly."
+673,1,STyle over substance,"While this is a stunning graphic accomplishment, it's no ""Twin Peaks"" in terms of plot development. I confess that I *thought* it was a real story---I believe I saw a blurb on amazon that led me to believe this before it was published. Imagine my disappointment when I realized it's really just a glorified scrapbook with a flimsy plot. Ho-hum...this is one of those books that I wouldn't mind browsing through in a book store, but I bought it sight unseen so I only have myself to blame."
+674,2,"Can't say its awesome, but too too good !!!","I had read few reviews in dpreview and amazon about the noise in low light conditions. Believe me, I dint notice much of noise in Auto Mode (thats what i explored on Day1 with my P5000).Good:1. Neat pics even in low light conditions.2. Shutter lag - you wont feel it (not during low lighting though, which is understandable)3. Nice ergonomics4. Lots of Manual settings which almost matches a DSLR.Bad:1. Auto focus takes a little noticeable time, but its not bad.I had lots of expectations from this cam, and so far am happy with its performance. All in all, a great cam for the price."
+675,2,found what he's been looking for forever!,"My husband has been looking for this watch to replace his old,broken one. It is exactly the same as the one he had worn for years... nice to find it still out there and at a reasonable price. Amazon strikes again! Thanks'"
+676,2,Great for Small Dog or Puppies and kids too,"This is my 3rd Bissel SpotLifter and its seems that I get about 3 years battery life out of these. For our house, when the dog has an accident this is used for extraction and it does a great job.We have 2 Chihuahuas, and this can handle anything these 2 lil gals can dish out. We even take extra cleaning solution with another cup or two of water for a rinse, and this vac handles it all. Durability is good and it is easy clean. I gave only 4 stars because I think the dirty water tank could come off a bit easier than it does, as the release knob seems a little small and I find it a bit awkward to push, but thats a minor issue for me."
+677,2,No problems so far,"I bought this unit for a second home and so far it's been fine, but it doesn't get that much use. I also bought it from Crutchfield along with a two year repair or replace warranty so I'm hoping I'm in good shape. I didn't know there were any problems with it until I read all the reviews.My previous unit was a NEXXTECH DP3222 which was REALLY a piece of junk. I guess you get what you pay for!"
+678,1,"Amazon owns the content you buy, NOT YOU","I certainly would NOT buy Kindle. Under their 'Terms of Service', they can revoke your access to the Service or your Digital content, without notice to you and without refund. That doesn't sit well with me at all. Nope, not for me."
+679,2,MUST HAVE FOR BILLS FANS,"officially liscensed bills gear for cheap, got it for summer grillin and can't wait to use it. quality is good on apron and would recommend it to any bills fan"
+680,2,Scott's Last expedition,"You can follow Scott, and his companion's journey throughout their great hardships (and also the fantastic beauty they experienced) to the tragic end.This end (scott's) along with his companions, was one, of noble gentleman who met their end bravely and with grace. Truely uplifting to the race mind."
+681,2,Daring & Provocative,"I was a bit skeptical but it turns out this is a very interesting read. Jenna Jameson offers us an insightful look at her life and personal account of her rise to status as queen of porn. It was interesting to learn of her personal struggles and life events that led to her involvement in the adult entertainment industry. There are some steamy scenes (well she is a porn star), and some parts that aren't so fun to read, but I personally appreciate her bold honesty because the juicy details are what make reading interesting."
+682,1,AVENTY BOTTLES,This is my first time trying the avent bottles and I am very disappointed with them. I just love the bottle shape but they are constantly leaking on the sides and since my baby has a small mouth the milk flows out too much and and out of his mouth. His clothes get more milk then his mouth. I have tried tightening and loosening the nipples but no success. My sister in law has the samew problem and I thought maybe it was just the pair she bought 4 years ago. But no success there either. I am now going to try the Dr. Brown bottles if I can return these back at the store.
+683,1,Waste of my money...unhelpful book,"This book is not great. There is a lot of useless fluff at the beginning of each chapter, when the author tells a long, very boring story (ie: an October day on a train) that is not conducive to building core strength. The pictures are in black & white, and there are not as many great exercises compared to other books. With this book, you'll probably spend all your time reading rather than doing exercises. This book is not direct or to the point, resulting in many pages that again, you'll have to read to find maybe one key point."
+684,2,amazing,"This book is for all people. It is a wonderful account for the search that we humans make to ""keep up with the Jones"""" but never feel fufilled. It explains what is missing and why we are never satisified with tangible wants and desires for a long period of time. Everyone should read this book. Well written and an easy quick read. Worth every minute."
+685,1,Not a page turner & not deep analysis,"I have read most of the customer reviews listed on Amazon - unfortunately only after I finished reading the book. I am impressed with the quality of authors of those reviews. I can not say I am knowledgeable about architecture. Yet that was precisely why I bought this book. To get more insight.What I found, however was a compilation of one man's opinions about architecture. Whether he likes this or that.I am finding De Botton a hard to read man. I think there is too much trying to make ""perfect"" sentences. However because it's not done on a perfect level, it gets tiring to read. I contemplated a lot whether I should stop the book after mere 50 pages. But I had to finish - God only knows why - so I pushed myself. There were maybe few points which I got from the book. But all in all it was a waste of my time to finish it. Sorry Alain!."
+686,2,Nice Case,"I got this case for my wife and she is very happy with it. Looks great, goes greate with her red 8gb nano. Two minor complaints would be that you can't really plug in the usb cable when the nano is in the case and the connector holding it closed is velcro. I have a Pacific Designs case which uses small magnets to hlod it close and I love that feature.But overall, the best case for the nano I have seen and by far the best looking."
+687,1,"TOO heavy,handle uncomfortable","The iron is very heavy and handle uncomfortable, do not like the fact that I have to unplug the iron everytime I finish using it.I use for quilting and am always ironing, so hence once you do shut it off, it doesn't go off, have to unplug it. If I put water in it, then it's almost impossible to handle.And steam just doesn't work as well as should.With blue window almost impossible to see how much water is really in it."
+688,2,Great old series,"A bit pricey but worth it to fans of this old series. Unlike cop shows today, Highway Patrol is not unrealistically populated by glam 20-somethings (of both genders), or gratuitous violence or crude language. It comes across as genuine, and, after all these years, still entertains."
+689,1,Not Free SF Reader,"A book that is aimed at young girls, but is a kid's book in general. The young P L lives by herself, and has plenty of money. (Ok, well, she does have a monkey, so points for that).Basically, she goes around having a good time, and causing havoc for any nogoodniks that get in her way."
+690,1,Doesn't hold up in a dishwasher,The scoop works just fine but after about 6 months of normal use (1-2 times a week) the finish on the concave portion of the scoop began to pit/peel. After about 1.5 years it's severely pitted and I don't consider it safe to use (who wants ice cream scoop pieces in you're ice cream).
+691,1,...plastic?!,"I bought this thinking that it would fit the Handspring Visor...it doesn't but that's not Franklin Covey's fault. Just beware all you Handspring owners that this won't work. I'm glad it didn't work however. It's constructed of cheap plastic and isn't very usable for 8-1/2 x 11"" planners. Yuck."
+692,2,Exceptional,"This movie is wonderful! I can't believe I had never heard of it until recently, and now I discover that it's actually very popular.After having read a couple of short reviews I expected some boring ""artistic"" sequence of weird scenes done for weirdness sake, but instead I found myself trapped in a beautiful universe. This movie has got it all: sexy girls, catchy songs, charming characters. The soundtrack and the sound effects are perfectly crafted, and the visuals, as strange as it may sound, are both warm and alienating at the same time, with a lot of drawings of the kind you could see in underground magazines or in the rooms of cool teenagers decades ago.I used to love RHPS, but now, in comparison, it looks like a shiny thing without soul."
+693,2,NICE!!!,I needed to cut a slot in a blanket chest and this allowed me to use a router and obtain a nice groove for the bottom to fit in. It was easy to set up and I highly recommend this product.
+694,1,Pass on this,"You really need to pass on this one.1) It was hard to get the drivers installed2) It loses connection with Skype frequently, like if your computer goes into sleep mode3) Started getting blue screen of death when I plugged it inKeep looking. Not even worth $10."
+695,2,Great gift!,We live in the NW so this is a great fall/winter inside toy to get wiggles out & get some excersise. Super econimical & something our daughter uses everyday.
+696,2,Great Book !,"I think the book does a very good job in introducing every aspect of VaR. The ""ENDNOTES"" are very useful as it touches almost all recent ideas in the literature. The second appendix to chapter 6 is an excellent summary of recent research in VaR measurement. I took away one star because (1) My own bias toward mathematical details. The book ignores lot of technical details (2) The book devoted only 5 pages on historical simulation method. I think author could have said lot more about this topic. All in all, its a great book. If you are just diving into this exciting field of risk measurement, this is the best book."
+697,2,Highland 91338 Triple Strength Bungee Cord Assortment,So far very good set. Wish they had more that were the same size in the set but the quality of the cords has been very good
+698,2,Very satisfied,"I just got my Takamine in the mail today, was a day beyond the estimated shipping..But hey, it's an estimate right.No complaints, it looks great and most importantly it sounds better than I expected. It was strung up and almost in tune surprisingly. The built in tuner is pretty cool, The sustain is friggin nice. Definitely a great guitar for the price I say. I even have somewhat of a ""thumbprint"" pattern on the wood grain which I really like...Cause it's undeniably my guitar from the looks...Maybe someone would find something like that un-appealing...though i think it gives some good character to it."
+699,2,Wonderful!,This was such a fun book to read! I was hooked from the first line. I like the fact that Ms. Hall uses some actual locations in her stories. This was a great mystery story and I'm looking forward to the next book of the series.
+700,2,Giants decal,"I had ordered this item for my better half who is a big Giant fan. When it arrived, I was a little disappointed. The decal is colorful, but very small.I guess this decal is made for a car window. But I still put it on the wall with tape (it is not very sticky) and has become another fun decal in the den."
+701,2,Excelent and useful.,"This is a good equipment. Even when its design is not the best (because it seems pretty rought) it's so useful. I bought it because my laptop came without TV OUT, and it has been very useful. It gives you opportunity to TV/MONITOR OUT any PC equipment you could have and it's powered through the USB, just perfect!"
+702,2,Brilliant work...,"If you are interested in deepening in Israel archaeology then this encyclopedia it is highly recommended, however there is a 5th volume with more up dates that you should probably get through the publishers..."
+703,2,The best recipes for everyday food,"This is not a cookbook for the gourmets. This is for everyday people who love food made with ingredients readily available on the Gulf Coast. And the recipes really do yield results that taste like the restaurant's dishes. I've had the Crawfish Etouffe recipe made in Pennsylvania, and it was an exact duplicate of what I order at the restaurant.Eat at the Gumbo Shop whenever you can. The rest of the time, use their cookbook.Caroline JumperSan Jose"
+704,1,Romance? Naw.,"I guess maybe I'm old fashioned but this book started out okay and interesting to me but towards the end, I just skimmed through it just to finish it and put it aside. The vulgarity of the language of the characters really displeased me as dialog and the main characters going at it like rabbits didn't interest me either. There was a lot of repetition in the love scenes and actually, I wouldn't really refer to them as love scenes. I did not ""feel"" that Rosamond and Rodger actually loved each other. And what was with the constant ""desires"" every time he looked at her and the ""flame"" that would start in her belly? Did she suffer from constant heartburn? Come on, be a little more realistic. The historical aspects and insight were wonderful and it was nice to read a different type of battle scene as opposed to something you'd find in fantasy or science fiction novels. But for the ""romantic"" aspects of the tale, BAH!"
+705,2,"""Running on Ice"" is a tremendous album","What a great CD this is. Crowd favorites like ""The Man Who would be Santa,"" ""Heart in Hand,"" and ""Wash Away"" all originated from this disc. Many of the bands newer fans may think this record is ""mellow,"" but its all acoustic sound is what makes the songs so real. Matt Scannell and Keith Kane's songs make this one of the most complete albums I own. If you like Guster, Pat McGee, and Jackopierce, this is the record for you. If you only like ""Everything you Want,"" this record may not be up you alley."
+706,2,curious about Gropius?,"Gropius is a combination of talent from every direction required by the creation of quality music. Do not mistake the lack of guitar, and presence of violin/viola as novelty. It is seemlessly integrated with the impressive bass patterns, drums, and vocals. I would probably give the disc 5-stars if my perspective wasn't skewed after seeing them live. Buy it on your way to Dallas."
+707,2,Good deal,"Even though I found this item at a few local stores, on sale, after I purchased it here, it is still a good deal."
+708,2,"Prank Wars, Africa, and Talking Refigerators","""Lost and Found"" if full of fun episodes that all ages will enjoy. In ""Odyssey Sings,"" the gang has a chance to show their singing talents on TV. Tamika is nervous; sure this is her chance for fame. Bart is trying to be really good or really bad, so as to be certain he just gets on TV. Harlow Doyle... never mind. Let's just explain it in four words. ""The Death of Tragedy."" In the ""Business of Busyness,"" Eugene and the Washingtons are too busy. Way too busy. And things get crazy and humorous. ""Champ of the Camp"" is a story about Connie (aka- The Avenger) at summer camp. The prank war begins once again, but how far will Connie go? And who is Goggles? But ""Prisoners of Fear"" was the grand finale. Eugene and his wife Katrina embark on a trip to Africa. But a journal, a curse, and an ""angry river"" make things more difficult and heart-pumping than the couple expected."
+709,2,"A 1 time decision can change your life, but only if you let it affect everything you do from then on out.","This book is an interesting look at one girl's attempts to grow in her walk with Christ while still facing the realities of highschool. It does a good job painting a realistic view of things, showing the struggles a teen would face as they seek to live for Christ. There are people in Beka's life who are challenging her to mature and grow spiritually. It's a lot of highschool drama with all the ""she likes him but he doesn't like her, but instead likes this one so she hates this one"", etc. It is pretty good in it's spiritual content though - even at one point Beka realizes that one boyfriend hasn't mentioned God at all, while one boyfriend talks about Him every time she sees him."
+710,2,Awesome Mag,"AG is an awesome mag it has everything. I'm 11 I started when I was 10 and even if it dosen't have stuff about boys, make-up and stuff like(but it would be nice to see more interviews) that they can still give it a girly feeling like once they put an article on manicures and another time they put a quiz on What your idea of fun?. It also has cool crafts like Micro Minis, or Photo Fun. It really helps girl to open up and be heared, like on the contests. Anyway it's AWESOME"
+711,1,Needs better editing- mistakes found,"The judges for our trivia contest used this book as the arbiter for disputed questions tonight, and the NYT Almanac was wrong or incomplete on two questions, verified by multiple sources. Number one, The place Lee surrendered to Grant was not a ""Courthouse"" in Appomatox, Va.... rather, It was a farm in the *town* of ""Appomatox Courthouse"", VA. A quick Google search will confirm this on dozens of sources.The question the Almanac was incomplete on, was about the Definition of ""DVD"". Properly and technically known as Digital Versatile Disk, the NYT Almanac only metion only a colloquial ""Digital Video Disk"", which is common, but not accurate. A DVD can contain video, but not all DVD's contain video.I wonder how many more mistakes there are in this book? Yeah, I'm a sore loser, but right is right and wrong is wrong. Maybe the Almanac makes up stuff too?"
+712,1,Not so much...,"Seems with Neko, either you love her or ... not so much. A little on the shrill side for some, but obviously we're in the minority. Just fair warning - don't buy this just because it's number one. Buy it because you've listened to the samples and decided this is a voice you can hear over and over without once being reminded of nails on a blackboard. Enjoy."
+713,1,WAS THIS THING INTENDED TO HANG,"it has metal clips on each end that look like they are intended to hold the thermometer to one of the racks in the fridge, however, it is not balanced and the front simply spins downward and falls off the wire racks."
+714,2,Like Thielemans,"High level of sophistication. Smooth. Not easy to find a musician who plays an strange instrument with convincing skill. But look out, easy listening could be result by moments."
+715,2,Best music ever,"This band is completely original, it has the best music, and I have been listening to their music for years. They have an orginal sound, the singer has a unique voice, and the rhythm is perfect."
+716,2,"Excellent, informative book","For a parent facing a daughter's early puberty, this book provides answers in easy-to-read language. It is an excellent book."
+717,1,Do not buy from BrilliantStore,When you order this item from BrilliantStore you get a different headphone then in the pictures.The version they send comes with a cable saver in the middle. The cord is really short so you always have this heavy piece of plastic hanging between your ears and the ipod. Also when you receive the headphone the left and right ear cable are still attached to each other. When you want to wear it you have to pull the 2 cables apart. After you have done this the cable saver will no longer properly retract.I know it is cheap but I can guarantee you that after a few days you will end up buying another headphone.
+718,1,ridiculous...unreadable,"If you want to read every word of the Wall Street Journal in order, this is for you. If you want to browse a newspaper and read what you choose, this is unworkable."
+719,1,Bad,I know what the warranty said but this thing just shut off after a week of use. Next time I am going to buy a better brand and not care so much about the price!
+720,1,The Cure for All Diseases,"Don't waste your money. No human can possibly have any kind of a life and live like this woman wants you to...perhaps if you live in a plastic bubble...no wait, I'm sure she wouldn't want you exposed to plastic...make that a glass bubble. Maybe her ideas work..I don't know because I have to work and to live like this would take all day. If your life is totally unbearable you could try this I guess."
+721,1,Install Problems,"Camera looks great, but crashes system every time I plug in to USB port. I am running Windows XP SP 2 on a 2.4 GHz P4 with 1 GB memory so there should be no system issues. I downloaded the updated software from Logitech and this didn't fix the problem. I plan on returning the camera.Also, according to the support email I got back from Logitech, which was no help, ""The Logitech video cameras are compatible with the USB 2.0 specification, but not compliant. This means the Logitech camera will function properly when plugged into a USB 2.0 port, but the webcam feature will function with the USB 1.1 specifications. The biggest difference between the two USB specifications is speed. So the webcam will work and have full functionality, but it will run at the maximum 12Mbits/sec speed of the USB 1.1 specification."""
+722,1,"Way over-rated, better choices out there, first one defective","Bought this after reading the early ratings here and on Cnet. First one replaced under warranty, company was just OK to work with but a pain to return and cost me shipping. Have tried/tested NUMEROUS BT headsets. The ""environmental mode"" is a total gimmick and in my opinion - worthless. For the money, the Plantronics 510 can't be beat, if you don't mind the bulk or the Plantronics 925 if you don't mind sacrificing a little sound quality to get smaller size."
+723,2,Great!,I have had this kitchen for quite a few years now. I have 2 children of my own that play with it plus I run a daycare out of my home. It has been through all sorts of rough and tough play and some great pretend play. It does not show ANY signs of wear yet. It's a great toy. In fact some of my daycare kids who are older still play with it. I rotate my toys every few months but this toy I never put away. My daycare kids use this every day! Great product!
+724,2,It's a great read,"My husband and both have loved this book. It is a great read, keeps your interest, very difficult to put down. The characters are so real."
+725,2,Christian DMX,trying to decide what new cd to buy with your hard earned money? looking for a great present? search no more because with out a doubt pettidee is the best flowing beat droppin christian artist out there. hes got that ruff DMX sound with awesome messages. pick this up today...GOD BLESS
+726,2,"Great, just really great speakers","These speakers are really great, they are better than the Creative Labs Inspire 6600 6.1 Computer Speakers because the satelite speakers acually have magnets in them, 2 parallel magnets, that produce sounds that are perfect for any gamer or music freak. The sub-woofer blows you out of your seat, it's great, and you can easily adjust the bass right on the volume control instead of reaching down behind the sub-woofer itself and turning a knob, which is great. The volume control icon also controls the fader (adjusting how much the rear speakers give sound). If your computer doesn't have a sound card, BUT, DOES have a virtual sound capability, you don't really need a sound card, but i RECOMEND YOU GET ONE! Get a sound blaster audigy 2, it's perfect, even though it says 6.1, doesn't mean it can't be for a 5.1 system like this one. GREAT SPEAKERS EVERYONE! I'M OUT!"
+727,1,Dont get this book,"This book is really bad. It has very few pictures and is hard to use. If you want to get a guide for this game, then get the Official Nintendo Player's Guide. This guide is much better and is the one i used to beat both games. The only problem is that amazon.com does not carry any Nintendo plyaers guides."
+728,2,Eclectic Mixing - it's about time,"What's wrong with this CD? There do happen to be a few tracks out of place but the rest blend well and compliment each other. I think what the record company was trying to provide two opposing sides symbolically represented by the sdtrk content (techno - Frost; rap - Blade), which made for an interesting listen. It's nice to know that film soundtracks have evolved this far to offer a much more eclectic mix that would appeal to a wide range of people. The techno is an obvious reminder of the film; the rap is there as an added extra (or, as someone put it, like ""Vampires n the Hood""). That said, some of the lyrics are a little too silly to be taken seriously, but, hey, nothing's perfect."
+729,1,totally not for orthodox cooks,"I am terribly sorry to have to write this, but the author of the book is obviously not orthodox. Most of the recipes use matzoh meal and one even had FLOUR!! Orthodox jews don't use matzoh meal, or any vegetables that cannot be peeled. We don't use spinach, strawberries,etc., or matzoh for cooking or baking. We use potato starch for baking. It can't be used in the same quantity of flour because it's much thicker. There wasn't one single recipe using potato starch! For me, this cookbook is useless."
+730,1,B-Movie,"Starship Troopers had a old idea, make a movie about big bugs and guys with big guns killing them. Hey, that would be worth it. What you don't know is that you have to sit through a sappy love story that seems written by a day dreaming fifth grader. This takes up half the time, played out by professional models rather than actors. The future looks like ""Teen"" magazine. As such the lines are said for the simple sake of having them said. The characters have no real depth beyond yelling things and shooting things. Once the action picks up there isn't anything to cry about, lots of big bugs getting ripped apart with major firepower. Stimulating as little of the viewer's brain as possible. But to get there you should skip the first half of the movie.Now if you want a real sci-fi flick with marines and bugs go get Aliens and stop throwing away your money."
+731,2,Is what it is,"Not sure what could go wrong, but the 16 guage wire looks and works as expected. Maybe the only downside is taping the wire to the spool so it doesn't unravel when storing the remaining wire. Just a nit..."
+732,1,Sorry...,"broke after 24 hours............it actually just fell off while I was using it, and I couldn't get it to stick back on. The camera was super clean and free of dust and oils."
+733,2,Great Book,"Hieroglyphs without Mystery describes a subset of the the Ancient Egyptian symbols through the use of printed text symbols and images of actual stone tablets discovered in Egypt. Cultural notes are given - where necessary- so that the reader is not bogged down with the language and retains interest in the subject. Instead of pouring out lists of symbols and proposed phonetics, the book slowly dishes a few symbols at a time, so that the reader gains a gradual understanding and can begin to read longer texts.The font itself is surprisingly large and easy to read in this small book and the photographs therein are both colour and black-and-white."
+734,1,"fragile, customer service very poor","The screen broke within a day while being carried in a pocket, rendering the device basically unusable. The agents for the product in Japan insisted from the start that the only possible reason was customer misuse and were generally unpleasant to deal with. (The instructions are also in terrible English and the readings differ markedly from those of more sophisticated devices, but then proper accuracy is difficult at this kind of price).#"
+735,1,Simply put,"These things are F%^&ng garbage!! Had them installed in a honda civic for about 8 months took great care of them, had system nicely tuned and wired, good amp, and capacitor in line. Subs literally just stopped working.

+736,2,Lanny Poffo-Heavyweight Poet Champion!,"This was Lanny's first rhyme book and it is great. Lanny covers nearly all of the stars of the then-WWF. It brings back so many memories as I read poems about such legends as Hulk Hogan, Roddy Piper, Andre the Giant, Randy Savage and Jake the Snake. Lanny doesn't stop there though, as he also has poems about lesser-known, but equally entertaining wrestlers such as George 'the Animal' Steele, Junk Yard Dog and Hillbilly Jim. Even beyond that, Poffo tackles a few non-wrestling topics.This book is a delightful romp down memory lane. It is a total feel good book, from a totally positive person. If you ever have the chance to meet Lanny, make sure you take it. You can't help but like the man."
+737,2,better than I expected,"When you read the reviews of other people, there is no doubt that you will get the impression that this might be the best album you could ever have, and it probably is. When I went to the record store, I originally wanted to buy ""the bends"", because of the title track, that was actually the song that introduced me to radiohead, I knew that songs like ""high and dry"", ""street spirit"" and ""fake plastic trees"" were amazing too but when I got to the record store they only had ""OK computer"", It definitely turned out for the best, because this CD is amazing, I actually tried to not like it but the songs grew on me, my personal favorites are ""no surprises"", ""lucky"" and ""let down"" and the song that made me say ""I like radiohead!""(which not everyone could easily say because of the fear of being pretentious)has to be ""airbag""."
+738,2,GREAT Band and GREAT song,This song is absolutely beautiful. Both recordings. One will get you rocking and up on your feet dancing and the other will leave you awestruck.
+739,1,the Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay,I found this book's start so difficult that I just could not get into it. This happened to my wife too and we both gave up on it.
+740,2,I like this series,"I really like the ""The Young Riders"". My favorite charater is Lou and The Kid. Does any one know when the second season will come out."
+741,1,This book is full of inconsistency and inaccuracy,"I am very disappointed after finishing this book. At first, the book had a few minor mistakes which could be clarified from other sources. As I approach to the end of the book, it was not worth my time to use this book as my primary study guide. The way it was written was terribly messy. Examples and figures just were confusing (check out Figure 9-6/Example 9-1). BGP is already a hard topic to grasp, but this book really help you to be TOTALLY CONFUSED. Some test questions on the CD had questions that you really can't find an answer for in the book. This is my first review ever on any book and regret it had to be a bad review. I am very disappointed by it as the usually reliable Cisco Press had given me such a bad experience. I urge anyone who's planning to use this book for the exam to think twice before purchasing this book."
+742,1,not my thing,"The music stinks to me, but the dude does have a nice voice. I have to admit I dont like Contemprary Christian Music, just Jesus rock like REZ band or Glen Kyser blues Band."
+743,2,Love my Lodge,"I bought this Lodge Dutch Oven after getting their 12 inch skillet. Since then I've added a 10 inch chef's skillet, 10 1/4 inch regular skillet and the 19 inch grill/griddle combo.The dutch oven has made some of the best pot roast, bbq pork, and so on I've ever eaten!I'm hooked."
+744,2,Solved My Problem,I had an idling problem and this solved it. My car is 13 years old so I think the old one just wore out.
+745,2,Excellent!!,I saw the band live in Milwaukee this month and Skynyrd blew the roof off the place. The venue was not too far from where I saw the original band with Ronnie in the 1970's so it was really special to me. During the show they played video of the old days (I cried). I received the special edition of Vicious Cycle for Christmas (with bonus DVD). I didn't have a DVD player yet so went out and bought one to specifically see this DVD. I was thrilled to see that alot of the footage shown at the concert was on this DVD. The songs are great - highly recommended for any Lynyrd Skynyrd fan.
+746,1,Quit working after one year.,"Like others have said, this blender just randomly dies and will not even turn on anymore. For me it happened just after the one year mark so no warranty return for me. And I used it maybe once a week at the most. Mine was a gift and I wish I would have read the reviews before I opened it. Too late now..."
+747,1,Do Men Understand What Is Meaningful To A Woman?,"Two experienced sex therapists elaborate on how to make a relationship fun and meaningful without feeling guilty. I hoped that ""The Married Guy's Guide to Great Sex"" would tell me what I really want to know, but I'm not sure if I understood everything they were talking about. I can't recommend this book to men who want to discover what brings pleasure and intimacy to a relationship if they need a marriage councellor."
+748,2,Convenient and compact,"Rollers heat up nicely, although the color dot which indicates readiness never changes color. The unit heats up more quickly than the instructions state.The rollers are a bit smaller than I would like but they do a good job of curling hair quickly and the curl holds well."
+749,1,the dumbest book ever written?,"Poorly written, hard to believe, full of wooden characters and bad dialogue - totally terrible! And long-winded terrible at that.Espouses a bizaare theory of economics where just a handful of ""industrialists"" are actually the only important people in the world -as if markets didn't drive economies, as if the supply and demand curves weren't even involved, as if investments and team work and workers didn't have an impact on product development.As a capitalist and someone who loves both good literature and just about anything involving market theory, I was so excited to read this book. Then I read it and I found out two things about Ayn Rand: (1) she can't write, and (2) she also doesn't understand a thing about economics.Read it if you want, but wow, is it bad."
+750,1,Material too flimsy,"I bought this bed recently for my 9 year old lab mix. He doesn't dig, chew or abuse things in any way, so I wasn't concerned with getting a super abuse-proof bed. But after a couple of weeks of limited use I found a hole in the soft side of the bed. The fact that this side attracts hair is unfortunate, but a hole being made almost immediately makes this bed not worth buying. It may have been a decent design if it was made with sturdy materials. Very disappointing."
+751,1,I HATE IT I HATE IT I HATE IT,"This song (I belive in a thing called love) is terrible. I guess that the guitar is half-way decent, but you can't hear it over his wailing. I mean, what full grown guy can sign that high? Anybody that likes the Darkness is an IDIOT."
+752,2,Billy is amazing!!,"This CD is unbelievable!!! There isn't a song on it I don't like. His single, Walk a Little Straighter, is great, but I really enjoyed That's Just Me. His voice is amazing, and if all of his albums are this perfect, I'm sure we'll hear plenty more from Billy Currington in the future!!"
+753,2,Love the watch!,The watch was inexpensive and I'm really enjoying it. I love the fact that it goes with any type of jewelry!
+754,1,Stopped working within 30 seconds,I got this out of the box...turned it on and it stopped working within 30 seconds. To me this is a bit of a negative. It is also bigger and heavier than I imagined. My one positive - it does roll smoothly across the floor. Wish I could have tried to wet option.
+755,1,Yawn,"First two albums are unbelievable- as is Jane- but this new one just drags....and drags......and (yawn) drags.Tea for two should be Tea for 1/2. However, Cheek to cheek is GREAT- Heard Jane in concert last month in California and the quartet accompaniment is tremendous on this song- wake me up for the rest of the album-"
+756,1,Sony Reader Anti glare Screen,"This arrived in good shape but is totally useless. Couldn't fit it over the screen, it got damaged in trying and we ended up throwing it away."
+757,2,Ramekins,"We needed ramikins for a Bridal Luncheon. Since I had already purchased the BonJour Creme Brulee set with the torch and 4 ramekins, we wanted to find the same ramekins. I found them on amazon and was very pleased.BonJour 4-Ounce Oval Creme Brulee Ramekins, Set of 4"
+758,1,Poor quality,Only worked for a few months and then died. Would not recommend this product. Bought one from Walmart that is still working fine. Green Slime brand or something like that.
+759,1,So disappointed,"Compare with Hollywood movie, the movie is so boring and full of disappointed. Stalingrad, was one of the greatest battle in history, with millions of soldiers, thousands of tanks. If you expected such kinda screen, you are totally wrong. No bloody screen, slaughter pic, I don't see any German Tiger Tank, but only 2 non-operated half-tracked. Also only 8 of T-34 were shown but were totally destoryed by 12 of poor condition, poor equipped German Soldier, it was non-sense. I brought this movie, because I read the recommandation from this board, I was so disappointed. Now I warn others, this movie is only a cheap production and totally waste of your time. Too bad, I will say this movie worth no star from me. I wonder if amzon will post my review, cause it will definately harm their business in selling this boring movie. By the way I am not a 13 kid, I am 40 now."
+760,2,A Most Read Book for everyone,"This book is one of the most exciting books I have ever read. The simplicity of it made it even better. This book teaches us that everyone's lives are important to ourselves and to everyone else. Everyone's life is connected to everyone else's. Eddie thought that his whole life was a waste because he never became an engineer, but in reality, he was one of the most important people in his town. He kept all the children and all the adults safe as they rode the attractions at Ruby Pier. If it wasn't for him, many kids would have been hurt and even killed. This book will definitely change the way you look at life."
+761,2,Love this Lady!,"You'll love Paula.She's the first to admit that, ""she's your cook not your doctor"" - so know that going in... and enjoy!great cookbooks!M Ivey, Westerville, OH"
+762,2,"Two Years, Still Going","I've had this brush for two years now, and it's still working well. I've only lost a few bristles on it, and it'd likely last for another few years. Be sure to store it on it's side (which I did for the first year) or using a holder, do NOT let it dry like the item picture shows."
+763,2,Gene Tierney,"Well written and insightful. I was especially interested in Daria as my son is deaf from war time German measles. Good book, good to know her famiily carries on."
+764,2,Nice Pashmina for price,"I got 5 of these for my bridesmaids as gifts, and on an unseasonably cool wedding day they definitley went to good use! They were a great price, and very pretty."
+765,2,This story is one of the best I have ever read!!!,"This story is about a girl named Claire who moves with her widowed mother to Ravensmere, where she meets up with a boy named Mark and they go through some very different expierences, that I will leave you, the reader, to find out. She also finds out about her mothers past which she never knew about before. This story was absolutely fantastic, it has many twists and turns, and keeps you turning the pages. Liz Berry did a wonderful job writting the story as well."
+766,2,A leisurely british read,"I enjoyed this book, it offers up light entertainment with a bit of a laugh. If you want to unwind & relax this will hit the spot. If you're after action & excitement however look elsewhere. It's extremely easy to read & I would recommend it to most readers."
+767,1,What were they thinking?,"Cartoony look, terrible control, shocking violence, repetitive gameplay. The cutscenes are hand drawn still pictures. The main character -Rau- is difficult to move about and he gets stuck on everything. Collision detection is terrible. And as for the ""innovative"" fight controls, it amounts to little more than button mashing. Halfway through the second ""mission"" -walk along and kill everyone you come across- your sword begins to get stuck in something every time you swing it. Frustrating, dull, and stupid. I quit."
+768,2,plug for computer,Great product. Works on the computer when my son bent the prongs. Cost more to ship it than the product.
+769,2,A movie that'll make you yell 'yippie-kiy-yay',"Talk about a bad day... imagine being in a building, filled with terrorists armed to the teeth with weaponry and missiles, hostages have been taken, the whole building wired to explode, and all that John McClane(Bruce Willis) has is a handgun. Just to matters worse, he's barefoot. That's a bad day, and he overcomes it in this action packed film. With the help of a police officer from the outside (Reginald VelJohnson) he tries to stop the terrorists, and save his wife(Bonnie Bedelia) who is also a hostage."
+770,1,Defective Motherboard Issues?,"I agree as well; there is a problem with this computer screen. It does not appear on the start up screen but only on the active background. Lines at the top and trying to open and close Windows is extremely problematic. I have to close them at the bottom in the dialog box. This problem appeared almost immediately. This is definitely a problem with the motherboard. In addition the Vista/Toshiba combination is horribly slow. It takes forever for this computer to respond when using pictures and moving files. This is one of those computers that looks good on paper but in real life is a total dud. Consumer Reports had this as a ""Best Buy"" but I guess they just ran clock speed tests; anyone who actually uses this computer will be well aware of functionality issues. This may be restricted to the models displaying the Toshiba motherboard defect but my experience matches the others."
+771,1,"Get Another Narrator, Please!","I'm listening to the abridged audio version of this and my biggest comment so far is the narration is HORRIBLE. I have listened to earlier WMC books and hoped they would not use Carolyn McCormick again, but alas, she seems to have a deal with the publisher or something. Her delivery is hamfisted, her inflection is continually wrong, her pronunciation borders on cringe-worthy, and her differentiation of characters (with regard to voice tone) is comical when it isn't entirely lacking. So it's hard to follow who is saying what when you don't have the visual cues you get in books. I like the idea of Lindsey Boxer but this reader does not bring to life the character the authors have created. Save yourself the annoyance and read the book instead of listening to it."
+772,2,I really enjoyed this CD,"This CD brought me back....I really enjoyed the movie, and I remember as I watched the movie, that I would love to have all these songs in one place. My favorite tracks are #1, ""Visions of Sunset"" by Shawn Stockman aof Boyz II Men fame, and #12, ""An American Symphony"", Mr. Holland's Opus!!"
+773,2,Not a classic but better than most of the stuff out there,Lotus is possibly the funkiest REM song ever. Very energetic and catchy without the blatant pop feel of Shiny Happy People or the classic but also stale REM sound of One I Love. Daysleeper continues the great tradition of Nightswimming. This album requires many listens but in the end you will crave the subtle melodies and suddenly you will find that you know every beautifully crafted word for every song. Thank God they didn't sell out and create a piece of garbage.
+774,2,I like Paul Simon,"This is a good cd. I knew this before I bought the cd.The cd came in a reasonable amount of time. I'm currently living in Spain, and I had no expectations for how long it would take to get here. The cd was in good condition.If you like Paul Simon, and don't have this cd, I highly recommend that you buy this cd."
+775,1,Short changed on toner,Cartridge was advertised as 4000 page capacity. Received 1500 pages. Will not buy from Amazon again.
+776,1,Still stinks,"After 2 and half years I still can't get the smell out. Its been sitting outside airing out for 3 months now, I think thats where I'm leaving it too. I love the concept of a diaper champ, but somebody do something about the smell, please."
+777,2,The Crime of Loyalty,"Walter Mosely's Devil in a Blue Dress strikes at the heart of racial inequality during the late 1940s. Easy Rawlins is an African American World War II veteran who has just returned from overseas. America, in showing its gratitude and loyalty towards Easy for fighting for liberty, slams the veteran in the face with unspoken color lines upon his return. Equality is still a myth in America, and Easy must continually battle the injustices of the white world for which he fought during the war. Because Easy has been fired from his job as a result of a racial power struggle, he must search for money through other avenues. An opportunity for seemingly easy money appears at the soldier's feet, and because he has a mortgage to pay, Easy accepts the job. What follows is a baffling, chaotic, deadly journey into the heart of the American psyche as well as the underworld of crime, loyalty, and necessary secrets."
+778,1,Depp Looks like a girl.,I HATED THIS MOVIE IT DID NOT STICK TO THE PLOT A AND JOHNNY DEPP LOOKS LIKE A GIRL.
+779,2,Affordable Entertainment,We got this chalkboard for our 2-year-old. He enjoyed drawing on the board and it's affordable. It's as simple as that.
+780,1,Not worth it,"I don't understand why this is $147. Luckily, I was able to borrow it from the library. This is a very comprehensive DVD about the benefits of breastfeeding, but it only had 10 minutes of actual ""how-to"". I was very disappointed."
+781,2,Awesome bottle!,"This is the second time buying this item. I would highly suggest it. Very durable, and very big! I am buying for my brother because he loves mine! Will buy again!"
+782,2,Big Fun,"It won't take the place of antidepressants if you need them (see Splendid's review, for example), but this is a really nice mix of some great old cheer-up tunes, many from the depression era. I'd have given it 5 stars if they'd found ""Let's Have Another Cup of Coffee"" for the compilation, but ""Looking on the Bright Side,"" ""Life is Just a Bowl of Cherries"" and a few of the other gems in here are well worth having. A nice recording job, too -- sounds terrific. If you like the oldies but goodies, it's a great mix."
+783,2,Perfect,"Everything you could ask for in a cd player, is right here! Sony is the most reliable CD Player known to man! It has a totally awesome design to it, with great features on it.For one, it is the best SKIP-Proof Protection ever! Instead on must CD players, like my old RCA Player which made you wait 45 seconds b4 the skip-proof was activated.This CD player, is so far the best cd player i've ever seen. With other colors like Blue/Green & Red, this is a must have!The headphones are good headphones, but not as good as the ones I bought. They are like the ones you place inside your ear, but in a regular headphone format, allowing ALL outside noices to go away. Yet the headphones included are still good, but not the best to deploy the sound.Well worth my money..."
+784,1,Defective out of the box,"I bought this product for my mom for Christmas (2008) and, unfortunately, it was defective out of the box. The display that shows CD tracks/radio stations didn't work properly. The CD player is supposed to play regular CDs as well as CD-R and CD-RW CDs; the only CDs I could get to work were regular CDs. It wouldn't recognize a CD-RW CD that worked in another CD-player we had. Maybe the one I got was a dud, but it was a poor product nonetheless. I'm sending it back to Amazon for a refund."
+785,2,Simple installation and reasonable sound quality.,"The installation is simply a matter of plugging the unit in and finding a place to put the unit which is smaller than a deck of playing cards.If your car isn't very quiet, I doubt that you would be able to use the unit while you are driving. Of course the AVIC-Z1 cripples the capabilities of the unit by keeping you from using most of the features (like dialing) unless the parking brake is set. You can still dial from the keypad on your phone, but if you carry a Motorola Q, this is not an easy task sitting still."
+786,2,Great product,I like this poster a great deal. The quality is good and the detail of the poster is clear. Excellent item for the price.
+787,2,Gift,My boyfriend is going to love it . It's for Christmas. It came so quick and it's exactly what it says. Thanks again
+788,1,disappointed,"i brought this at the same time i got my ipod mini. the latter's great!the case smells very bad. a chemical smell. very strong.also, the part that covers the screen's scratched.im not returning it because i dont have time. if idid, i definitely would.like people already mentioned, it does also bulk to the ipod and wont fit into the belt clip, the screen part does attracts lints, making the screen not as clease as it can be without the case."
+789,2,Great introduction to state machines,"This book is an excellent introduction to digital logic and state machine design. We used it in college and I have referred to it often. It's principles have been applied in numerous commercial projects. This book will explain how many digital circuits work: DRAMs, UARTS, ethernet controllers, etc are all just collections of state machines."
+790,1,Disappointingly condescending,"The previous two reviews really captured it. I was intrigued by the premise, but really disappointed by the execution. The narrator was an American, although the perspective she was narrating was that of a Frenchwoman. The narration was flat, condescending, and irritating. This is a movie about a group of fool-hearty European adventurers with seriously biased and condescending attitudes. So much potential and yet so disappointing compared to a subsequent work by Pavol Barabas--'Pururambo'--a wild journey through the jungles of Papua New Guinea, which is quite good."
+791,1,HORRIBLE Product and WORSE CUSTOMER SERVICE!!,Don't buy peg-perego their customer service is horrible!! I will NEVER buy from them again!!
+792,2,I will like it...I think,"Pilates is very new to me, which is the reason I got this video. Once I understand more I think it will be a great addition to my health routine."
+793,2,"""Two Palms Up"" for Irena Palm","Long ago I used to listen to the music of Marianne Faithfull so when I accidentally began watching this movie I continued watching not out of nostalgia but because of the enchanting, gentle nature of this middle-class widowed grandmother and her desperate approach to lessening her family's financial burden. My attention was not due solely to the subject matters obvious humor (including the interesting clash of stereo-types) but because of Irena's quietly persistent and dignified manner in seeing her idea through until her financial goal was achieved at which time her grandson then had a real shot at being cured of cancer. Faithfull truly acted the part and the story lines never let her down nor diminished her in stature despite the obvious attempt of others to do so once the true nature of her work was revealed. A touching but very funny story (although admitably not meant for the prudish or those who easily censure others without understanding)."
+794,2,Great filter,I've been using this type of filter for years. The one inch bolt makes it super easy to get these things out.
+795,2,Great for iphone 3G,This is a great carrying case for the iphone 3G. I have looking for something like this for a while. Most are very expensive. This is right for the price.
+796,1,Bad Everything,"I bought 2 pajama sets ,size small, for a xmas present. Both tops were like extra large and both bottoms were like extra small. I returned them at my cost($10.00). Intimo did not correct the problem as promised or phone me back as promised. One month later, they emailed me that the sizing was correct. WHAT??? Intimo issued me store credit. NO REFUNDS. Would you have faith in buying here again with the strong potential for the same result at your return cost? Credit card disputes did not help. Don't shop with Intimo!!! I regret it. I give this item one star because they don tallow 0.Intimo Women's 100% Silk Pajama"
+797,1,Ok For What It Was,"If you're looking for a quick, erotic read with not a whole lot of intelligence or substance, just a lot of hot guys who need a lot of hot sex and a lot of desperate women willing to give it to them...this is a good read. If you're looking for something any more in depth than that, you won't find it here. This is basically the same kind of erotic story you can find in any number of books all over the internet. I can't really say the writing was anything special. It was a typical erotic fantasy romance. Nothing more. If you don't mind that, this can help pass the hours fairly enjoyably."
+798,1,Not at all worth buying!,"I see a few reviews on here from people who have played the PC version. The sad truth is that the PS2 version doesn't live up to how great people say the PC version is. The graphics are extremely poor - they look like a PS1 game! - load times are painful, and the gameplay itself is disappointing at best, downright tedious at worst - there are far too many places in the game where you have to do things just exactly right, or you die and have to start over from the start of the level. It seems like it was written by a bunch of english 'lads' who were just having a fun time, goofing around, trying to see what it would be like writing a video game. DEFINITELY rent it first - because you won't buy it after that.If you want a GREAT game in the same genre as this (albeit on a different platform), pick up ""Starcraft""."
+799,2,Must Read,"This book is a must read for anyone who cares about the neglect and abuse so many children in this country suffer. It makes a good point regarding the number of cases which go unreported. For every case we read about in the newspaper, or see on television news, there are an unknown number of children living in a world of neglect/abuse that we never hear about. This book will tear your heart out, but it needs to be read and passed around. I have read it three times and I still can't do it without clouding up. The fact that Trena Cole, and her siblings are still alive and sane, is a testament to their strength."
+800,1,PLEASE DO NOT BUY THIS PLASMA,"I have bought this TV in June. It has not worked for 15 days properly. Picture comes up for 30 min and it goes off and the screen is just with white lines all over, and the TV gets so hot we shut down for few min (when it works). It works once a day. Picture quality is not good. Repair guys took 2 months to figure out what the problem is. After 4-8 new parts in it, it worked for 20 days again back to the same problem. Customer Service of Toshiba ""New Technology and New Problems"". No HELP AT ALL FROM THEM. Do not take my word. I am putting the Phone Number of the Repair center: 770-451-5057 and my case #: 281270. PLEASE DO NOT BUY THIS TV."
+801,2,New Style Godz,"Every band on this cd is screamin'tight. KIDD ROCK is a Platinum Rock $ STAINE like a first tattoo, you want more. But KORN is all you need to know about music & the more KORN i hear the better it feels."
+802,2,So far So good,"I've had this printer for about 6 weeks. I do think it's strange that it doesn't come with ink and paper but I was warned before I bought it. I do find the prink packs a little hard to find and too pricy on sony's website but the printer itself is wonderful and fairly simple. I love the quality of the photos, I think they're comparable to other regular 1 hour photo shops."
+803,2,A fantastic board game!,This game really gets us all thinking--and learning. It's great for the aspiring engineer in your family.
+804,2,"Fiesta 6 3/4"" Small Pie Plate","As a single person, I can now make a pie and know it won't take me a week to eat it! It cleans up very nicely and it a perfect size for those that like to bake but wants a smaller version."
+805,2,Personalities and physics,"This remarkably clever play explores how we define the cast in our lives. While most literature that incorporates science is fascile, this is truly interesting and the conclusion will leave you thinking. Well acted and produced."
+806,1,What a mess,"This review may be a little harsh... but, if you had to sit through an entire semester with this book you would see my point. Book this is full of errors and omissions. Something that can be explained in a few sentences take pages for this author to convey and half the time the reader still has to look elsewhere for clarification of the material. Half way into the semester I had to stop reading the thing and do subject research using other sources. Amazing someone would publish a text book this bad."
+807,2,"Genius, Tom....Genius","This album happened to be my first Tom Waits experience, almost two years ago to this day. At first I thought that this album was far too deranged for me. I had sampled it online and listened only to the first track, which is deranged, to say the least. Then I listened to the rest of an album (a friend lent it to me). All I can say is that this album is simply beautiful. It covers so many different moods. It has a very melodic few songs, such as All the World is Green, and Coney Island Baby. It has some really haunting ballads, like Another Man's Vine, and The Part You Throw Away. Other songs are downright odd, such as Misery is the River of the World, God's Away on Business, and Starving in the Belly of a Whale. All in all, this is a very versatile album, a masterpiece in its own right. Kudos, Tom, you sexy beast."
+808,1,Worst key entry ever!,"This calculator looks nice and has great functionalities no doubt, but it's the worst key entry experience I've ever had with any calculators! The keys are simply too hard and one would need to exert a lot more force down on each of the keys for the input to register. As such, like many have complained in the previous posts, this makes calculation extremely slow, not because the calculator itself is not able to perform the task, but to punching in all your numbers would simply take too long and too much effort, with the added risk of not being able to enter everything correctly because the key pad is just so damn hard to press!So frustrating! Why can't they just learn a thing or two from the casio fx series, once you've used those calculators you never want to touch another one again. Too bad casio doesn't make cfa approved calculators.I'm starting to really really hate using this calculator."
+809,1,interesting yet....,"At first, I loved this book. As a woman with in a relationship with a transgendered woman, I could appreciate the insight. Yet, as I read on, I was exposed to someone who lived two lives. One for public view and one that she truly wanted. I found it disappointing that she kept a wife and children while being involved with a man when she was ""allowed"" to dress as she desired. Although interesting, for me it was disappointing. I am someone who embraces monogamy, and felt that both relationships were being somehow cheated. I accept that there are those who fully embrace polygamy. Yet, it is something I personally do not embrace in my life, nor would I knowingly purchase a book about it."
+810,1,Extremely outdated!,"I thought this book was totally different than it was. It's absolutely outdated. No nice pictures as I hoped, old outlook. Wish I didn't buy it."
+811,2,Good but only when used as a resonator,i needed a cheap resonator to replace my custom straight pipe. Came across this flowtech glasspack and did the job. It drastically quieted down my exhaust system. I would only recommend this as a resonator because as a muffler it wouldn't sound that great especially when you can upgrade to a brand name system.
+812,1,Circular Saw Cutting Guide,"When rough cutting, a good craftsman can follow a pencil line. An accurate straight cut requires a straight edge clamped to the material to be cut. This items attempts to shortcut that process and just doesn't work.Because it's a one item fits all device, it first has to be cut to fit your circular saw. The problem is that it has a minimal edge to support the circular saw when starting the cut, so you frequently start off in the wrong direction. Despite its being made from plastic, there was a lot of friction between it and my saw. which caused the whole unit to shift, making cuts less than perfect. My freehand cuts were just as good as cuts made with this device.Sears makes an item that is both cheaper and more useful.[...]They used to make a table that converted a circular saw into a 45/90 miter saw, that I bought 30 years ago."
+813,1,Don't recommend,"I have been making vegetable juices for more then 10 years. Samson GB-9001 is the most expansive juice maker I ever bought. Yet it is the less efficient juice extractor I ever had. I would not even call it a juice extractor. It is more like a grinder. The amount of juice it extracts is scanty. My old juice extractor, I bought 10 years ago for 45 dollars, extracts twice as much juice."
+814,2,American Girl does it again!,"I'm 13 year old and I love this book. A full 63 page color book. With ""Super Sitter Secrets!"" It is useful and answered a lot of my questions. I have never babysat before (by myself as of December 1st) but there's a lot of useful information such as:-CPR-Sleeping-Calming Children-Changing Diapers-Stop sibling rivalry-And more!!!Great for ages 11 and up.BUT HOLD EVERYTHING!!There was 1 con:In the Babysitter's Buisness Kit, it features this book, business cards, activites, stickers and a lot more for only 2 MORE DOLLARS!I recomend the Babysitter's Buisness Kit.If you are looking for just the book, (But c'mon, only 2 more dollars!) buy the book."
+815,2,Great album,I got this as a gift for someone and ended up making a backup for myself. Really enjoyed it. Also service was fast and efficient
+816,1,Get another book......that's all I can say,"I purchased this book at the point of desparation. My family, husband and I and two grown sons hadn't talked for two years because of a Legal Will that wasn't pleasing to them.We needed a book to help us with wisdom on how to handle this horrible situation - general advice, nothing too specific (actually, I'm sure few buying the book have our specific problem.)What did we get? A book on how to deal with teenagers, uncle 'fred' who drinks too much, and on and on.This was of less use to us than one visit to a Psychologist would be and that would have been money better spent.If you're having family problems that are average, this book may help. If you're having family {{{PROBLEMS}}} that have you hunting for some help, this isn't the book for you. I'm sure one is out there, but this definitely is not the one."
+817,1,"Wrong Music = No Sale, Sorry","Tour of Duty without the original music, especially 'Paint It Black'; I don't think so. It just wouldn't be the same. I am sure if I had never seen the originals it would be ok. For me though, even now years later I think first of Tour Of Duty each time I hear that song from the Stones. A series of DVD's costs enough for the producers to get it right if they want my money. I'd love to have Tour Of Duty & China Beach both complete series, but not without the music for them."
+818,2,"Educational, safe magnets","My 19 month old loves these and so do I. Many children's magnets have small round magnets on the back which can be a choking hazard. The entire back of these is magnetic, so it's all one piece and safe. The illustrations are adorable, but not cartoony, so it's clear what the animal is.My daughter loves to take them off the fridge, show them to me and make the noise associated with it. We also have the (fisher price?)magnetic farm thing. The one where the child connects the front and back of the animal and a little song plays. The Melissa & Doug magnets are much more popular with my daughter and more educational."
+819,1,"Worth the price, but that's not saying much...","I bought this thinking hey, it's ten bucks, what have I got to lose? Well, the answer to that question is ten bucks. If you're broke and want to learn Russian, save your money for food and get a library card. Pass on this.I'd only give it one star, but I'll give it two because it's so cheap and you could learn something from this if you put forth serious effort. But you'd be better off buying the Penguin Russian course instead for almost the same price."
+820,1,erm..uh...why?,"Maybe it's because I'm (probably) young compared to most of you, or maybe it's because I think Simon Cowell is a pretentious jerk who only knows about pop music (not a compliment, but when I actually listened to this c.d. when I was bored one day, I found myself asking 'why?'. ""Why do people enjoy this?"" Why did Simon Cowell see it fit to plague the world with not just crappy pop american idols, but these guys, too?"" ""Why did my friend buy this?"" It's just a bunch of boring guys singing boring songs they probably didn't write (i hate when people sing songs they didn't write. It just screams ""not a real artist""). The only reason that i gave the c.d. a 2 was because I have to admit the guys can sing. I can't, and I don't talk when I can't do the same. But theose boys have got some pipes....otherwise, it's a 1."

+822,2,Great CD,"Great soothing CD for Christmas, especially as background music at a party during the season. I have no complaints. Good CD."
+823,2,took this book to convince me of the value of storytelling,"I have always loved to tell stories to my children when they were little and when they finally grew older it was this special ritual of story time that I missed a lot. Now I know that story time is not over for me at all. It took Nick Owen's book to convince me of the value and benefits of stories not only for my own inspiration but as a wonderful resource in my field as a teacher and trainer. Although familiar with some of the stories, I was surprised about the new insights I gained through having them presented in this way. More than that, this book has given me the courage to believe that I can be just as good a story teller to adults and furthermore it supplies sufficient tips of how to go about it. They do work, as I found out to my great relief when I first tried them out in a training. Now I am pondering about the question if my almost adult kids might be as responsive as well!"
+824,2,great pin,"I purchased this pin, even though it did not have all the details as the others its still a nice large pin to dress up yout t-shirts. the reason only 4 stars the color inside is not blue its a emerald or a x-mas green"
+825,2,"A Must Read for men of any age, who have experienced their Dad dying.","My daughter bought this book for me while she was home for my father's funeral. It was such a good ""source"" to help me begin the journey of not having a ""living"" father. My mother had died 10 years earlier, but it is not the same experience. Since reading this book, I have purchased 4 more, for a brother, my 2 sons, and my late best-friend's son. Whether you are 60 like me, or 30's , it still helps. It is full of ""experiences"" shared by other men they interviewed."
+826,1,Great Streets = The Grand Canal with Nathan Lane,Im so glad I saw this. I am extremely upset with the quality of the vhs along with the missing section which is the reason I bought it in the first place.
+827,1,Unimpressed,"I read this book wondering of there was really any meat to the whole ""war on christmas"" hysteria, but there is next to nothing of real substance in the book. Gibson's book is essentially a 186 page pamphlet. It's largely anecdotal, offering almost no cites to back up anything. No footnotes, no endnotes, and most irritatingly, he makes reference to lawsuits without citing the civil docket number or even the venue, so good luck with your fact checking. On 12/20, Bill O'Reilly went on the air retracted his claim, which also appears in Gibson's book, that the Plano Independent School District banned red and green clothing."
+828,1,Did we read the same book?,"My book club chose this book on the basis of all the good reviews it got, and our opinions ranged from mildly disappointed to outright hatred. To me, it read like the author had a good premise for a magical-realism short story, then appended 250 more pages that supposedly fleshed it out but were really just dull and unsatisfying and riddled with cliches. Bakapoulos can clearly write -- the first chapter or two, when the fathers disappear, shows that -- but the vast majority of the book is a bad Hemingway imitation about a boring guy doing boring things without the benefit of a bit of insight about what effect all their fathers disappearing had on him and his friends. If Bakapoulos ever puts out a collection of short stories I'd check it out from the library, but give this one a pass."
+829,2,A+++++ Vendor and Shipper,Received product very quickly and worked perfectly. Saved me some money by purchasing on Amzaon. Thanks!!
+830,1,waste of money,"Having read the previous reviews, I knew I was taking a chance when ordering this. It was a losing gamble. The light bulb lit up very dimly for about a half second, never to light again. I tried all of the things listed in the reviews - tinfoil, metal on base and side, same piece of metal on both sides, on side and base, etc. No go. Buyer be warned."

+832,1,A book without much usefulness,"Just read this book because I thought it may have some useful information regarding UML. I can't find much as other reviewers indicated. On page 296, there are a few statements discussing the difference between OODB and relational database. Not only the authors don't know what they are talking about, they seem even don't have proper English writing skill and logic to form their argument regarding using OODB."

+834,2,"An Incredible ""Life"" Tool","There are self-help books...and then there is the ""Zen"" book. As a writer, teacher and consultant, I am always looking for good information to pass onto the people I know and care for. This is such a book. The writing is eloquent, the content is direct, easy to read and comprehend, and it all gets straight to the point. I use this book on a regular basis for my own personal assistance, and have recommended it to many others over the past year or so. In times of such great difficulty today, it is an inspiration that comforts me when I begin to question my own personal purpose in life. I truly cannot say enough about the author and the book. 5 Stars. Thanks Laurence. D.L. Chatsworth CA."

+836,1,The commercial-pop side of Wetton,"This anthology is the pop, commercial, ballad type. I do not like this sugary side of wetton. There is another compilation which is 10 times better: 'King's Road', that includes progressive music from his era with K Crimson, UK, and some solo songs. This one is really a great intro to the 70's great wetton."

+838,1,TERRIBLE!,My husband and I really don't like this toy. First of all it is not very sturdy - my 8 month old easily tips it as she tries to pull up to standing. And it slides across the floor as she tries to pull up on it. Worst of all it is designed poorly as the the balls get stuck in the track as they spiral down - very annoying. It's too bad as this toy has potential. My daughter loves to stand and play and likes the silly music the toy plays. But now she only plays with the balls the toy came with.
+839,2,"Great story,""can't put it down until you're finished"" book","As a former Army officer and military journalist I have to admire the captivating story and explicit writing style Mr. Culbertson has authored.The events seem ""up close and personal""and the unique threading of tongue -in -cheek humor throughout the book make it a must read for anyone remotely interested in the Vietnam ""experience"" or the military at that time in American history.5 STARS!"
+840,1,"PLAN, PLAN, PLAN AND NO ACTION!!!","The fourth book of WoT series, its better than previous three.But still its not as good as others are claiming it to be. First of all, I want to know what the hell was Rand's Masterplan?? In the entire book, Rand and others act as though he has come out with an ultimate plan to defeat the enemies. But when the climax happens the plan is never mentioned by anybody. And I think its the tradition of WoT series that everytime the villians are explained as very strong, cunning and powerful, but when they confronts with Rand, they are so easily won over as though they were waiting for him only to screw them up. The females...... more female characters are introduced and they doesnt show any kind of difference from previous female characters, all are rude and ignorant. Even the Aeil woman are annoying.I'm saying again, dont bother to go for this series."
+841,1,All right as a standby,It's light and inexpensive. Not too good doing your beard. Good as a spare or for travel but I'm not sure if it can be charged on 220-volt outlet. It is not marked on the charging base.
+842,2,Great Gift,Purchased this as a Christmas gift. The series on PBS was outstanding and know the recipient will love it. Too bad America doesn't have the quality of actors that the British seem to produce at every turn.
+843,2,Pugster rocks my italian charm world.,"I bought a bracelet for myself and my sister. We went crazy buying charms on amazon (and other websites). Pugster is by far the best when it comes to first (and most importantly) quality, prices, customer serivce, fast shipping. I bought a couple from other companies and it was hard to even see what the picture was. This company has all the details very defined on each charm-where as others can be blury or muddled looking. I am very pleased and will continue to be a repeat customer. Go to their website directly for shipping discounts and special deals."
+844,2,I Was Satisfied With This Product.,"Although it wasn't what I was expecting exactly, I do like the shower curtain. The only thing I didn't expect was the way the silver circle patterns were applied. I thought they would be part of the fabric, but they are actually stitched on in a very loose stitch pattern. I do enjoy being able to see out of the top of the curtain, and it is very lightweight and hangs well."
+845,1,The Widower's Two-Step,"I've enjoyed Tres from his outing in ""Big Red Tequila"". The Widower's Two-Step left a lot to be desired. The murder in the beginning and the investigation was interesting but peters out. As the book progresses the story looses steam. It seems the editors rushed the ending and the book leaves a number of loose ends hanging. Hopefully The Last King of Texas will be the better go-round."
+846,2,Easy,"Product arrives as agreed, in perfect condition, Look forward to my next shipment. My Grandson is being potty trained, and these Easy Up hold the moisture all night"
+847,2,Great sound quality and affordable price,"This microcassette recorder is very simple to use and the recording quality is much better than I expected. It's very lightweight and portable. The 2 AA batteries it uses last a long time. If the sound quality starts to go down, it's probably because the batteries need replacement. The one problem I have is that the 'out' ear connection hole is too small for both my ear bud set and headphone set. I usually don't use these with the recorder so it's not a big issue for me, but if you're someone who plans to use headphones with it, just be aware that not all headphones or ear buds will fit. Other than that, I'm extremely happy with the quality of this recorder, the ease of use and the great price."
+848,2,Great Tools,"I have been using the tools for about couple of months now. No problem at all. The set came with an organizer hanger for the tools and a charging station for the three batteries. Both can be easily mounted on the wall. The edger works great. I can trim my 1/8 acre lawn with one battery. The blower is somewhat weaker than I expected. It is fine to clean up after the trimming, but don't expect to use it to clean up leaves in the fall. The hedge trimmer also works great so far. I am glad that I made this purchase from Amazon. The set came within days from ordering. Without having to deal with the extension cords, I saved a lot of time doing my lawn."
+849,2,helped a bit,"studied the asvab few days before taking the test. this book helped me get an idea of the difficulty and what to expect in the test. the practice tests on this book is actually harder than the actual asvab, so it helped me to study harder versions. passed with a score of 94."
+850,1,incompatible,I installed the software on my PC that has XP SP2 on it - as well as 1.5 GB of RAM. After installing all I get is an error that says I must have at least 3 MB of free virtual memory. Maybe I just have too much!I uninstalled it and am now out the $$ for buying it. A fancy coaster I guess!
+851,2,"good reference, not a good recipe book","This book is such a good little handbook with so much information that the library has it in the reference section! There was so much I wanted to photocopy from it since I couldn't borrow the book that I ended up buying it. There are no colored photos or fancy photography but the information is invaluable and is laid out in a very comprehensive way. You can easily apply the knowledge and techniques from this book to all other recipes and baking. In this way it is suitable for the beginner (just follow the recipes given) to advanced bakers (use the info to change your own or the given recipes.)When I want to make something, I rarely find myself going to this book for actual recipes, it's more a guide or a reference for technique which is useful to have."

Out of sadnest I kelt the MS9923TTR."
+853,2,Happy Crickets = Happy Geckos,"I purchased this to gut-load crickets for my two Leopard Geckos. I found that one cube will last a long time, even with 30+ crickets, but dry out within a day. However, using a small cap [like gallon milk jug cap], I put just enough water to cover the bottom of the lid and place the cube on top of the water. This keeps the cube moist for days, extending the life of the cube. The milk lid is shallow enough that the crickets will not drown. The cubes have an interesting orange smell to them; made me think of orange-scented cleaning product. Not a terrible smell, but not one usually associated with edibles. So far, I like them. And the geckos like the crickets and well, they are the real critics, right?"
+854,1,Piece of Junk...,Read the description carefully--it's a MECHANICAL timer. The alarm is armed with the spring-loaded dial. So the length is determined by the amount of winding you put to the dial--not very accurate and the alarm bell lasts only as much as you wind the dial--its sound is very harsh and gradually dies down as the spring winds down.I suppose this alarm could be good for the elderly because of its large numbers on the face and the dial...
+855,2,Metal-Machine Music,"A quartet of projects spun from King Crimson, the music explores the vast avenues of ideas and virtuosi of Robert Fripp, Adrian Belew, Bill Bruford, Tony Levin, Trey Gunn and Pat Mastelotto.Bruford is a rhythmic wonder on ProjeKct One - Live at the Jazz Cafe, while Belew adds a twist or two on V-drums, and the ego of an arena-rock headliner, throughout ProjeKct Two - Live Groove.But it's ProjeKct Three - Masque and ProjeKct Four - West Coast Live that delivers the most explosiveness. Fripp stretches out sonically through wickedly harsh, metallic-like performances, which covers the artistic canvas with power and urgency.Each CD is a gem and travels a vast landscape of creativity, sound and vision."
+856,2,DIRECT ACTIONS is an awesome book,"The lead character in the book, Jeremy Jefferson, Esq. pulls the reader through a politically motivated sensational trial, with relentless surprises and thrills. The author, Terry Olson, masterfully created what I consider to be an awesomely great American novel. Well worth reading! A wonderful and timely selection for discussion by a book club."

+859,1,Confirmed: Voyager sucks.,"Just finished watching the two Scorpion episodes.These are considered the best of this series, right? Well, they were not good. The plot was passable, but the dialog stunk and the acting was just plain bad. Very very bad."
+860,1,A disgusting disgrace,"When I was 6 years old and living in Germany on an air force base our family went to see this movie. Of course at that time I loved it, because the WWII infantry men were my hero's. I'm now 42 and a student of WWII history and last night had the embarrassment of viewing the movie and had a good laugh. Like the M48s (?) used for the German Panzer divisions, or what about the ""desert"" scenes. If anyone has ever read anything on the Battle of the Bulge they will realize that this was the coldest and snowiest winter since anyone could remember. My standard in judging a war movie is always taking into account what year the movie was made and the technology of the time. That's why I could excuse the pyrotechnics and other ""realistic's"" (excuse the term), but this movie was cheesy to the core. I'm actually surprised Henry Fonda even considered acting in this movie."

+863,2,Review of users guide to the book of common prayer,"My daughter and I both have the book of common prayer but I have the guide and over our vacation time we were able to use the user guide to our advantage. It was very helpful and got us on an organized track so that we could go through the offices effortlessly and understand what we were doing in a matter of minutes. I highly recommend this user guide as a companion to the book of common prayer. Frankly, to have the book of common prayer without the user guide I believe would be a serious mistake. The user guide helps you make the most out of the book of common prayer and I highly recommend it. By the way, my daughter recommends it too!"

+866,2,Love this broom set!,"My 22 month old was obsessed with my normal sized broom. I had my doubts that he would find this kid sized set an acceptable substitution but he loves it! He loves to push it around the house and ""help"" Mommy and Daddy. Fun toy! I appreciate that is a well made and functional broom."
+867,2,Pretty,This is what I'd hoped it would be. Love the opening bail - more pendants need to be made with opening bails. I bought 3 of these and gave 2 as gifts. Both were well received!
+868,1,Snooze,"Be warned. Despite South's outstanding musicianship and tremendous self-assurance, this album is so mellow that it might put you to sleep. South is being favorably compared to Coldplay, whose ""Parachutes"" album was favorably compared to Oasis, which seems more three sheets to the wind these days. But South is way off the map of rock; it's not trance-rock, it's sleep-rock. I think the litmus test for whether you like ""From Here On In"" is Radiohead's ""Kid A"" album; if you're impressed with ""Kid A,"" you might well like South. For me this stuff is annoying beyond belief."
+869,1,"Bland, Lifeless, and Entirely Uninspired","Since most people reading these reviews aren't shopping for elevator music, I can't recommend this. ""Feels Like Home"" makes Norah Jones' debut CD (which I was disappointed with beyond words) sound energetic. Hoping to hear vast improvement, I purchased this and basically saw the opposite. Never in my life have I heard anything so boring, and I listen to incredibly quiet and slow music. There is no soul whatsoever anywhere on this CD. The performances are as lackluster as possible. Norah Jones is a mediocre singer with no personality. I just can't, for the life of me, figure out how this is so popular. It's truly sad that she's selling so many CDs when there are extremely talented musicians working two dayjobs to make ends meet."
+870,1,I regret buying this diaper pail,"When I was pregnant with my son, I thought that I would be saving money by buying this. When my son was a infant, it worked okay. Around five months, when he started eating solid foods, it started to smell. I tried to bleach it, I tryed Lysol and I tryed all the scented trash bags. Nothing helped. The smell only got worse. It got to the point that the whole room would smell like a diaper pail. I could never get the smell out. I finally bought the diaper genie and I love it. I have two kids and I use it alot. I change the refill only once a month and it doesn't smell at all."
+871,2,"Solid cards, Use tulip driver in linux","Work well in Linux, 98, ME, NT and Win2K. I use these cards and the Linksys PCI cards all over my network, both work great."
+872,1,Dissapointing,"When I bought this CD I expected it to be Malmsteen's version of these classics, but then when I got it I realized that it was just a compilation of classical music.Anyway, if you like Symphonic metal or Malmsteen, it is good to have this compilation."
+873,2,Please Please give me some more!!!,"This book was exhilirating. I both liked and hated the main character Babysister. Babysister witnessed the death of her mother at a young age. After that, her father spoiled her to death. He never said no to her and so she grew up thinking she could get everything that she wanted. Babysister's best friend's name was Deborah. Deborah snagged a guy named Darren who graduated from UCLA, was an architect, and fine as hell. Deborah and Babysister worked at the same bank so she had to be the one to take Deborah the flowers Darren brought to her. After interrogating Deborah about Darren, Babysister concocted a plan to get Darren away from Deborah. This story has all kinds of twists and turns and is sure to keep you wondering. Babysister gets what she wants until she realizes that she was just a part of Darren's fool-proof game. This book is good!!!"
+874,2,WOW Keyboard,I love this keyboard. It make everything so simple and saves a little time when you are chatting. It takes a little while to get used to but I highly recommend it.
+875,1,Horrible,"The commercials were a turnoff. The jokes were a turnoff. The actors were a turnoff. Conan O-Brian, for once, was right. This movie is not worth your money, time, or thought. Did the Raspberry Awards catch this one? I hope so."
+876,1,Disappointed Baraka lover,"I love the movie...I own it; watch it a lot. The CD does NOT have all the music soundtrack included, nor is it mixed the same as the music is in the movie. Seriously disappointed."
+877,1,Don't waste your time.,"HORRIBLE! This is the most boring movie I've been to in years. Not only is it long (and lame) but it is completely predictable from the beginning. Many people walked out, as I should have instead of hoping for the movie to miraculously turn around."
+878,1,A little disappointed...,"none of the characters in the short stories really stands out. Although each stories has a magicial theme, fulfilling a curse, etc, there is no real magic between the characters."
+879,2,Great solution for traveling,"It is a nice looking box, better than we expected. It holds a lot of mail. Installing the lock was a bit challenging. Too bad they don't install it at the factory."
+880,1,50% Failure Rate with Panasonic DVD Recorder,I recently purchased a Panasonic DVD Video Recorder (model DMR-E80H). I purchased these disks at the same time. I have used about 20 of the disks and thus far have had a 50% failure rate.
+881,2,May be a little scary for young kids,"My 5 year old daughter and I loved this movie. The characters were well written and as usual, Disney is great about adding some adult humor to keep it interesting. One word of caution - I was glad that I did not bring my younger daughter, as I believe some of the bear attack scenes may be scary for children under 4."
+882,1,SPURIOUS,"You guessed it: It's the same leftist b.s. we were all taught in school. Please, I'm already almost asleep...spare me these tired old lies."
+883,1,Book not helpful,This book did not help my computer needs. I recently purchased a book by another author which was much more helpful for half the price.
+884,2,A challenging social commentary for modern times,"Crowded Land Of Liberty: Solving America's Immigration Crisis by former Reagan campaign official, banker, entrepreneur, and public policy issues expert Dirk Chase Eldredge is a challenging social commentary for modern times. Eldredge examines America's population boom and how work can be done to improve quality of life for born citizens and naturalized citizens alike. Individual chapters address the pitfalls of assimilation, the essence of asylum and amnesty, and the very real need to balance an influx of people with a broader social service and school base. Crowded Land Of Liberty is highly recommended as a sincere, timely, and thought-provoking treatise on a critically important social issue, especially in a time of increased concerns for public safety, national security, and immigration policies."
+885,1,Did not stick!!!,"Usually this kind of tape is so sticky that it is a bit bothersome, but at least it does the job and all is forgiven.Indeed I was, and am, shocked to find this tape simply does not stick. I agree with another reviewer that perhaps this is a bad batch, but how many bad batches can there be?This tape does not stick and cannot be used to seal packages. It is quite annoying to have to order a six-pack of these things and find I have wasted time and money.Just today I bought a cheap 7-11 ""brand"" of this packing tape and found it sticks better than the Scotch brand."
+886,1,Would not purchase again,"First the positives...delivery was prompt, good price. Now the negatives...my computer would not recognize the cartridges. Not a big problem, but the color is terrible...that IS a problem. Doesn't look anything like what I'm trying to print. The old adage ""you get what you pay for"" holds true in this case and I'll pay extra to have true color and skip the re-manufactures."
+887,2,Nice item for price,"The other reviews are definitely correct--the cover is not white. It is more of a light tan. The company should change the photo to the correct color but it does seem to be made fine. We bought it for a pop-up & it seems to work like it should. I would still recommend it, regardless of the color."
+888,2,Joobie,"After reading some negative reviews about other round glasses, I gave these a try and I am more than satisfied. They fit very well (not too small) and the mirrored front is very reflective. Very cool teashades."
+889,1,"Where is the ""score"" for this movie?","The score would contain the music heard throughout the movie, the soundtrack is just a marketing device for musicians these days. I want to hear BT's original score. As I was watching the movie I thought the music was amazing, but I was completely unsurprised to see the ""soundtrack"" polluted with nothing but hip-hop that wasn't even in the film. If you want the songs from the film, wait for the score (if there will be one released) or wait until the music credits roll after the film and have a pen and paper ready :-)"
+890,1,Doesn't understand evolution,"The author's erroneous understanding of evolution undermines everything that he writes. An article he wrote in 2004 to refute Dawkins, falsely claims that Dawkins considers a shadow that looks like JFK's profile to be a 'designoid'. The author is either very dishonest or very uneducated, either way I would recommend reading his material only to see the depth that intelligent design advocates will sink to."
+891,2,Great Hold,"I have curly hair, the extra hold holds the curls without the stiff, stickey feel you may get with other sprays."
+892,1,This is the worst book I ever read,"I have two college degrees and have therefore read my share of text books. Of all of them, this book is by far the worst. The author makes no attempt whatsoever to explain the material in an understandable way. The text is extremely difficult to follow. Worst of all, there are MANY typagraphical errors (usually in the mathematics). On average, I found a math error on every other page. When trying to understand a concept in this book you find yourself wondering if you really don't understand it, or if the author just made another math error. After hours of work, you end up finding that the author just made another math error. This is a miserable excuse for a physics book."
+893,1,"Interesting, but another point on a downward trajectory","Eco's ""The Name of The Rose"" was a dense but excellent multilayered novel of medieval thought, history and politics cleverly organized by a plot aimed more at revealing the mindset of a changing period than telling a 'story' per se. ""Foucault's Pendulum"" attempted, less successfully, to do the same thing. With this novel Eco appears to have concluded that history is interesting enough not to require more than the most casual of plots to introduce; he's wrong. We've seen most of these ideas before, especially the thinly-disguised mean-spirited anti-clericalism that fuels the novel's 'wit'. Eco desperately needs the discipline of working in the short-story format!"
+894,1,Uneven Song Selection,"The only reason I bought this soundtrack was for the version of Leonard Cohen's ""Hallelujah,"" sung by Rufus Wainwright. I couldn't find that version on another CD. Didn't care for the rest of the songs on this CD that much."
+895,1,Not what I was looking for,"I was looking more for crossword puzzles, there are very few of those in here. It's fine if you're looking for other kinds of puzzles."
+896,1,A Lost Author,"I have read all of the Carpathian novels to date, except one. I very much enjoyed them at first, but nothing EVER gets resolved. You would think that after 16 books something would have been resolved and a new obstacle introduced. As for this book, it is an off-shoot of another Carpathian novel about the Jaguar Line. I was hoping to find out more about this curse, the origins and why the males kill the females. Nothing, not a word about the Jaguar curse. And why do the walls and ceilings change? Ideas introduced and left at that. Ms. Feehan went, once again, off on a tagent. Her books become less and less meaty and more and more expensive. I will NOT be buying any further books by this author. What a shame."
+897,2,Funny as hell,"This was recommended by a co-worker. He was right, the movie is incredibly funny! Definitely recommended for a good laugh."
+898,2,How Computers Work Review,"Great book for information concerning the computer and the technology connected to it. However, it is not for a beginner or novice individual just starting out with a computer."
+899,1,2016 Obama's America,"Completely paranoid. Misinformation, and fslsehoods. I would recommend that you don't waste your money. I suggest you read real news publications, and educate yourself."
+900,2,Blood and Chocolate,"I found this book to be highly captivating. I couldn't put it down!! The Werewolf falling in love with a human is not a new concept. However I feel that the problems Vivian goes through are ones that many teens can relate to. Falling in love, deciding what to do, not knowing fully where one fits in, these are all decisions that one has to face. The story is fast moving, with great description, it keeps one guessing what is going to happen next. This book brings out ones own imagination. I think kids would love to read it! Grades 8 and up."
+901,1,Totally BORING,"After reading this book (which took a LOT of effort), I couldn't help but wonder WHO the authors' target audience was. It couldn't possibly be the average reader, since it was jumbled, unclear, lost in technical detail and very poorly put together. I struggled to finish it, and most of it is now a blur. Perhaps a scientist might like it, but even a plant lover would find it dull."
+902,2,Cinderella II - Dreams Come True Indeed a classic!,"""Cinderella II"" is Absolutly a classic. Cinderella, I believe is on of the best Disney movies, and then when I found out that they made a second...I had to run out an buy it.It is divided into three stories happening after Cinderella and Prince Charming return for their honeymoon. Cinderella learns what it is like for a Princess. I was entertained THE WHOLE TIME. The song are also nice, nothing like the original, but they keep you upbeat.This is THE BEST Disney sequel ever, I like it because they keep the focus on Cinderella and not someone's boring 12 year old child.Disney...this is truely a masterpiece I will FOREVER treasure!"
+903,2,Beautiful works of art,This book has very beautiful cakes in it.It is definately not for a beginner or even an intermediate cake decorator.
+904,2,Okay..,"Hi okay welcome to Americawe have freedom of choice of musicso to all people who tell peoplein these reviewswhat bands they should likeand shouldn't likeseriously, get a lifeyour stupid and ignorantAs for this Cd.....Popish cdsimple lyricsif you want something deep and complicatedthis isn't for you"
+905,2,Best buy for the money and for the job!,If you are used to waxing no problems. It takes some time to get used to it but worth it for the results. I did a lot of research and this is one of the few Epilator you can you for bikini and works awesome.
+906,2,For those days that nothing goes right,I love this DVD when I am having a bad day. Denis leary has that sharp dry sense of humor I just love. 2 stand ups are in this DVD and its too hard to think which one I like the best. No cure for cancer and lock and load are great shows and makes me wish he was on the road more
+907,2,Delightful,"With the current flood of Chick Lit books filling the bookstores today, THE BOTOX DIARIES has found a way of riding in on the wave and yet setting itself apart from the pack. Instead of dealing with the sometimes clich? obstacles of being a 20-something woman living in the city, searching for love and a career, we have two 40-something women searching for meaning in their lives while battling the issue of age. What THE BOTOX DIARIES shows is that even as women age, their problems of how to handle love, life, relationships and careers remains constant. These women are the SUV-driving, blond-bobbed, wrinkle-free Manhattan women who most females tend to hate. However, Janice Kaplan and Lynn Schnurnberger have created very likable and very real characters, and readers will actually find themselves sympathizing with the life struggles of these women."
+908,1,Don't Purchase This Item,"Don't purchase this item, the hose is cheap and thinned walled so it collapses under suction and very difficult to get it to work. When it does, the hose is collapsing on itself so it takes forever to siphon. Total rip off!"
+909,2,"Outstanding, uplifting, music.","I just happened to be watching Robert Schuler's ""Hour of Power"" one morning when Tony Melendez was the guest soloist. Not only was I amazed at his music, but his courage, his testimony, and his thankfulness to God for having been born without any arms and yet, having been blessed with the gift of playing a guitar with his feet, were all inspiring and amazing. I have been searching for this CD for over two months now. While I am dissappointed that the CD will not be out for approximately 11 months, I am grateful that it will be out, and yes, I plan on buying several copies for many of my friends. His Latino style of Christian music was very invigorating, the energy that he puts into his singing and playing was encouraging. Please get this CD out as soon as possible!!! Is there any way to get an early copy?"
+910,1,It broke with very little use.,I would say to buy another brand for mine broke with very little use after the warranty expired.I thought I would give Dewalt another chance since this is made in the USA. Usually I buy Makita or Milwaukee but save your money on this chuck unless you have money to burn!
+911,1,Lock will break! Do not buy this gate!,"We purchased two of these gates, for both the top and bottom of our stairs. They did work great for about a year, and then within 2 months of eachother, the locks on both gates broke. After reading other comments on this site, it seems that many other people had the same problem. I believe this will eventually happen to all the gates, since it happened to both of mine. I called the customer service line, and there is only a 90 day warranty on the gates."
+912,1,Worthless,"I live five miles from Sears Tower, in Chicago. I get 16 over the air channels in analog all of them watchable. Channels 7, 9, and 26 as well as low power channels 23 and 48 come in as good as cable TV.Now with DTV and various antennas all I can get is THREE stations, 7, 9 and 32. And 7 and 9 are all pixleated.So it seems 16 watchable channels have been reduced to 1 watchable DTV channel. So much for progress, but I guess it's much more important for rich people to be able to have yet MORE cell phones (that's what the TV signals will be used for) than let poor people have TV.I guess I'm gonna have to come up with money for cable.DTV is NOT a good thing for us urban poor."
+913,2,its alright,"Flight Unlimited 3 is a good flight simulation game. the planes flew better than i thought i even think better than FS2000. There where not that many airports avaliable though, and also not that much scenery. So for people that are really just wanna fly I recommend you buy this product."
+914,1,DO NOT BUY,This is a ridiculous version of the original. In my haste to actually find a copy of the real Jungle Book I purchased this. Be forewarned...DO NOT BUY.
+915,1,Steel Turds,"I love much of what the Rolling Stones have done during their long career. Unfortunatley, they keep churning out these crummy albums. It is hard for me to believe that the same people who recorded ""Get Off Of My Cloud"" put out this drivel. Only buy if you have to buy a gift for someone you don't like."
+916,1,Bad for 2002 Honda Accord,This product did not work as described on my 2002 Honda Accord's dashboard. The unit would move every time I hit a bump or made a sharp turn and it came very close to falling off my dash. After a few blocks I removed it before I got into an accident by trying to catch it if it fell. I assume this product works well with some cars based on all the other positive reviews but I can guarantee this mount is not the right choice for a 2002 Honda Accord.
+917,1,Poor writing,"After reading Anne Rice ""Beauty"" series and then trying to switch to her ""mainline"" novels, I was dissapointed to find that the poor writing style that I found in ""Beauty"" was also found in the rest of her novels. I thought the stilted, mundane, elemenatary sytle of Beauty was unique to erotica and was a result of trying to make hardcore sex fascinating, but I found the same pendantic, non-literary style to be found in the rest of her novels. Anne Rice is all plot and not style. She approaches fascinating and erotic subjects with pedantic and stilted phrasing. ... I keep waiting for the literary style that the promos, books sales, and movies promise. It aint's there. Basicallly, Anne Rice is soft porn with no literary style. Any good romance writer could do as well. Rice just sucks people in with gore."
+918,2,Stone: Great Setting: Good value for money,"Stones are white & clear, setting finish a little rough in the joints but for a basket setting, it is still a bargain. Comes in a navy ""velvet"" finish box. Would recommend item: Great value and hard to find in 14K white gold finish."
+919,2,"This is the best Creatures-game, I think!","1.Download the breeds and objects you find the most interesting from the net(like, the Life kits are now free!)2.Hatch few norns, and teach them to speak3.Explore the world with them, but be careful about going to the volcano, it has some radiation :o4.The grendels are not really evil in this game, they hardly hit norns and are quite peaceful, but still, there's need to watch out5.Breed your norns, and get interesting crossbreeds!6.And so on...this game is the best ever! I RECOMMEND THIS TO EVERYBODY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
+920,1,Don't order from Abundatrade!!,"Although the movie was great, service was HORRIBLE!! I picked a used movie from ABUNDATRADE and it took FOREVER TO GET THE MOVIE....FOREVER!! Seller did not provide a tracking number so when i contacted them for one, they said that the United States Postal Service did not allow them to get one-WHATEVER! I ship through ebay all the time, using the USPS and they provide me with a tracking number EVVERYTIME I SHIP A PACKAGE. They're just being lazy. I just don't want someone else to order from them and have to wait half a month to get the movie. Order through someone else. PLEASE."
+921,1,Boulevard of Broken Dreams Is The Only Good Song!,I'll give this CD 1 star because Boulevard of Broken Dreams isa good song. Other than that I've heard Holiday and it is whatmakes Green Day suck! Here's what to get.
+922,2,Epic concert.,"The concert on the first disc is definitely one of the best, if not the best, Muse concert out there. Splendid performance and quality. The set list feels very complete and amply shows off songs from both Showbiz and Origins. The second disc having a few hours of great behind the scenes videos from the tour. Truly a great buy. However, only four stars because I could not play either DVD in any of my DVD players, could only play them through my computer (Although I did not try a game system)."
+923,2,It's a Winner!,"When I first this CD there were two songs that immediately impressed me, ""Care For You"", and ""Reach You"". After playing these two songs several times, I eventually let the others play. Before I knew it, I found more favorites like, ""It Is What It Is"" (love that opening bass line), Sooner, and ""Midnight Rush"". Now that this monster has been in constant rotation for the past week... YES! It's a definite WINNER!"
+924,1,Worked For A While,"I had this filter for about 3 weeks, during which it worked well. There were a few times where water leaked from the connections, but it'd be a few small drops and then it'd stop. Then one morning I turned the faucet on full pressure and the entire system (even the adapter) popped off the faucet, spraying water everywhere. It's now impossible to reattach; every time I screw it back on, all of the water leaks/sprays out of the top and nothing even makes it through the filter. I can only guess that the threads are completely ruined, making it a hopeless endeavor to try to fix."
+925,1,one hot mama,"I've used this product before, but in the capsule form. I thought I was getting a good deal since the health store was so expensive. However, I didn't notice that the online bottle was in tablet form. I'm taking 3 per day where in capsule form all I needed was 1 per day. I've been taking this product for three weeks with some relief, but only if I don't drink alcohol! Not! In the capsule form I had NO hot flashes and I could drink. I'm getting ready to chuck these and do an all out search for capsules on the internet. Otherwise, I'll gladly pay the price at the health store for a good night's sleep and a little fun!"
+926,1,DUKE ELLINGTON,"If you prefer seeing Duke with his band, then this is for you. I purchased the DVD with the expectations he would be intimate as the title says. What I mean by intimate is having a trio for the entire DVD. 1/2 of the DVD had a trio, but the songs were extremely slow and lacked variety. THe only song that I really enjoyed with the trio was ""Take The A-Train."" The other 1/2 of the DVD included parts of his band, 1 trombone, 1 coronet, 1 alto sax, 1 tenor sax, and etc. I did not expect this format, because I was looking for more soling opportunities from the Duke. Still, if you want to see him with less of his orchestra then it would be a good buy for you. And if you are a fan of his slower paced songs then consider buying it. It just was not my taste, but I still have utmost respect for Duke Ellington."
+927,2,"This book was pretty good, although I liked #1 better.","I liked this book a lot, but I thought that #1 ws more exciting"
+928,1,Piece of Crap,"Any one who rates this interface higher than a 2 star certainly works for M-Audio. Configuring the system with the ""latest"" drivers from the M-Audio website has proved to be a nightmarish experience.Buy this at your own risk if after seeing all the negative comments you still are not convinced."
+929,1,Real or Fake?,"I'm not sure but, the cologne I bought doesn't seem quite right. Even the title on the bottle seems wrong. Shouldn't it say ""eue de toilet"" on the front? Or something like that. It seems watered down. Not as strong."
+930,1,"Universal, ugh, what can I say?","First off these are two sided DVDs. It seems only cheapskate Universal does this and it sucks. Also you get nice marketing in the form of previews at the beginning. WHY DO YOU PUT PREVIEWS ON A DVD PURCHASED FOR HOME USE? Because the bean counters at Universal want to figure out how to squeeze more money out of you by touting their other crap products. Not only that the packaging is crap also. Also, do not expect any extras here."
+931,1,do not buy this unit,i bought 2 of these units to transport fuel for filling up my boat at the lake houseim very dissapointed and the flo n go is the worst product i have ever boughtthe fuel hose is so cheep and thin you need 3 sets of hands to keep the kinks out of it while pumping fuellet alone after storing this unit with the hose wound up.the kinks never come outafter 3rd time of use nozzel broke off.shut off valves are in a to tight of a spot.plus they should put a brass elbow at the bottom of the shutoff to the hose to relieve the kink and stress at this point3 e-mails to flo n go 2 replys and 6 months later i still havent gotten any replacement hosecocmpany will not stand by this product.DO NOT BUY.........TOTAL WASTE OF MONEY
+932,2,Sadly underrated,"The absolute BEST song Bananarama ever recorded! Great beat, crystal vocals and a song that sticks in your head. I don't mind listening to it several times in succession."
+933,2,all was good,"the book came on time, it was in good shape, just as advertised. no problems. I would suggest this provider to others!"
+934,2,An authoritarian on Cults and other religions.,"If you are truly a seeker of the truth, this is a book that must be in your library. Have you ever wanted to know why the Seventh Day Adevtise Church is the way it is? Or have you wanted to always know how Islam, Mormons or Jehovah Witnesses got their start? Everything in Walter Martin's book is based upon hard facts found in magazines, court cases and documented sources. This book will open your eyes and make you realize the fabrications that many cults and religions have painstaikingly gone through to create the illusion of what is the truth. Walter Martin's Kingdom of the Cults opens these falsehoods to the light of day and it gives Christians the tools to have intelligent and rational discussions with a person who believes one of these ruses. It is a tantamount book, resourceful, direct and above all it is the truth."
+935,1,"Yes, there are sync issues","I can't believe the gall of the publisher to post something in the Product Description area claiming there are no sync issues.I'm using an up to date Oppo blu-ray player, Samsung plasma TV, and a Pioneer receiver, all of which don't have any issues with other blu-ray discs.All you have to do is watch the 2nd song, Aneurysm, and watch Dave Grohl's drum parts. Something is off, just slightly, but it's off. It's obvious. Do a search...it's all over on other web sites.So disappointing. This should be a monumental release. I would suggest not buying this version."
+936,1,SOMETHING DIFFERENT,i read this book over the summer and i loved it its a little confusing at first but then it gets very interesting
+937,1,"No, no, no, NO!","In the early 1970s, my school system adopted Roberts English as its grammar curriculum. My 2nd grade class was the first class to use it. The school system abandoned it when I was in 8th grade. It was the most confusing, confounding, ridiculous way to teach grammar. My 9th grade English teacher was horrified when we (the first group of students ""brought up"" on Roberts English) appeared in his class and didn't know the first thing about grammar. He had to start all over, subject-verb-predicate. I still don't know the parts of speech. Whatever you do, DO NOT teach Roberts English!"
+938,2,Don't miss it,"If you are a fan of Batman and graphic novels, there is no reason not to read Year One. It is one of the best!"
+939,2,Really good!,"This is a deeply troubling book about Hitler and his passion for his niece. Of course, I suppose all books about Hitler are difficult, because he is such a dreadful historical character, but this book takes his global madness that we all know about, and puts it on an intimate scale. Hansen is an extremely talented writer to make this work. This is an excellent book."
+940,2,the best athlete ever,"this documentals are a probe that one man can change the history of a sport, like maradona and pele, jordan is the best basketball player ever, and this box set is at a very good price, this is a good investment"
+941,2,Brilliant! Watch it again and again!,"The best movie of the year! Kubrick gets performances from Cruise and Kidman that far exceed anything they've ever done. Kubrick was masterful at all aspects of filmmaking, but try to pay attention to his use of music in all of his films. While you could say this is like comparing bars of gold, I think this was his personal strength. His love and expertise in this area really shines thru in this movie, as in all of his others. Watch this movie repeatedly, because, as with all of his films, they simply get better the more you view them."
+942,1,Words without substance.,"The books gives an easy description of obstetrics and gynaecology, but it does not give much information on the subjects. It is difficult to find answers to even easy questions which arise at the ward during clinics. But you can read the whole book in two days, and that is an advantage before the exam. But if this book is all you read, you might not pass it."
+943,2,Quality of Product,"This product is very easy to clean, and that is basically what I was looking for, however after using a number of times, it does leave very slight food stains. For the price, you can't go wrong. I'll recommend it!"
+944,2,The stars make the movie,"All i got to say is this: If u have any doubts of how real this movie is brought to life just look at the list of actress' and actors' that performed in this beautifully written movie. As I was scrolling down the list there were certain names that stuck in my head. The people that performed in that movie are now basically STARS. Need proof? here it is. Roma Downey: Jackie Kennedy. Can u say STAR? she STARS in one of the most popular TV series to date. Stephan Collins:JFK he STARS in another greatly popular TV series. Now, I know she isn't a MAJOR star in this movie and doesn't have very much screentime but she is the most popular actress out of then all.She is none other than Sarah Michelle Gellar who stars in Buffy the Vampire Slayer and has stared in numerous films. Well I guess that pretty much sums it up. Sorry for the misspelling and grammor errors I was in a hurry."
+945,1,not a good quality cartoon,"I never saw this series in the original broadcast, and I was disappointed at the poor quality of the cartoon and show in general. My kids enjoyed the story, but complained about it being ""fuzzy!"""
+946,1,Where are the filters?!,"I hate to buy a replacement humidifier since I bought this one less than a year ago, but I can't find replacement filters! The original filter mildewed and I can't find another. Buyer's remorse."
+947,1,Nonsense.,"Grante has no idea at all of style appropriate to this idiom. Most of these are unrecognizable. No sense of texture, tone, legato, or anything else that would have meant anything to Godowsky. Check out Godowsky's American records, e.g. the Berceuse, (not the Columbias) to hear what I mean. As bad as I've heard since Szidon's hysterical Scriabin or Pollini's brutal Chopin. No bueno. Really no stars at all."
+948,2,Simply one of the finest novels of the 20th century.,Brims with invention on every page. Recommended to anyone interested in fiction. Buy it in hardcover it is a novel you will want to re-read.
+949,1,"Weak, lukewarm, flavorless coffee","I called Melitta to make sure I was operating the machine properly, and I was. The coffee looks dark, but is weak, flavorless, and not served hot enough. And I don't even like my coffee very hot! Very disappointed."
+950,1,Eddings ripped off his own book,"Sad sad sad. I was a huge fan of the Sparhawk series. In this book he seems to have ripped off his own characters from that series! The little dreamer girl is a copy of Flute ( who was cute in that series) but in this one is just down right annoying. All the other characters seem to mirror ones from his past books. Its dull, repetetive and boring to read, I admit I can't even finish this one. I just skipped to the back half way through. I don't think I will buy the rest of this series when it does come out. Save your money and just read the Sparhawk series."
+951,2,Amazon and Grandma Save Christmas . . .,". . . for one very happy 6-yr. old grandson. I really did search everywhere for this X-box version -- not the 360 one -- of the Stars Wars II: The Original Trilogy. As it turned out, my grandson did get a copy of this game from his Mom and Dad, but it was for an X-box 360 so it didn't work in his older model. When he opened the box he was THRILLED and immediately popped it in the game set to play. He really didn't see anything else -- except for his extending light saber, which was another save-the-day gift from Amazon and one of Amazon's other vendors. Thanks Amazon, for making an extraordinary effort to get these items to me before Christmas. You made a little boy very happy -- and a grandma too!P.S. By the time I left for home, my grandson had reached level 6. Isn't he great!"
+952,2,Good Supplement,This was a decent supplement for the first three books of the Institutes. Would like to see book four covered in the future.
+953,2,Splendid but nearly forgotten,"I was an early reader, and no stories pleased me more than the Uncle Wiggly ones. They were interesting and ethically instructive. I now have a baby girl, and she will be reading these creative tales rather than those that sent poor William Bennet down the road to becoming The Gambling Gourmand."
+954,1,DISCONTINUED FOR A REASON?,"This camera was gifted to me by my parents before a trip to China. I really liked it and thought it was great. However, 12 months later, the camera bought the farm. I had a huge event coming up at this time and wanted a camera very quick that I knew how to use, so, stupid me, ordered the same camera, thinking the 1 year lifespan had to have been a fluke. Guess what? My 2nd HP R717 lasted for 13 months before it died ! Mind, I was not spilling soda on it or dropping the things either...too bad I can't get my money back - over $400 spent on these things. I feel ashamed, and so should HP."
+955,2,Wonderful Music!,The CD arrived on time as promised and in great shape. This was a Christmas gift for my husband and I hope it helps him unwind on the drive home from a rough day at work.Thanks for the great service and simple shopping experience.
+956,2,type is too small but excellent information,I have listened to Dr Mirkin on his radio shows for years and totally respect him as a Doctor. I have several of his books. This paper back version of Healthy Heart Miracle is wonderful also but I find the type is too small for me to enjoy it totally. I should have looked for the hard cover version which surely is in larger print. That is my only complaint.
+957,2,Dated but Good,This is a high quality instructional on the fundementals of Modern Army Combatives prior to 2000. Every technique on this video is still in the level I program but more have been added including fighting over your rifle. The instruction is clear and easy to follow. My only complaint is the length of the disclaimer and the fact that you cannot bypass it.
+958,1,Doesn't stay put,"The concept is great but needs to be improved upon. The part that you lay on constantly wrinkles, bunches up, and shifts around b/c there's nothing keeping it laying flat while your bodies are naturally moving on top of it. It gets realy uncomfortable having the material bunch up under you and you need to keep fixing and adjusting it. I'm disappointed since there are very few of these types of items available for bedsharing with our infant. I wish the sheet part was longer so that it could be tucked under the other side of the mattress or something - that way, maybe it would stay put."
+959,2,excellent fictious book for all ages,This a book that stimulates the imagination of young people as well as old as you take a midnight journey on an old steam engine to the north pole.
+960,1,The Guide that Fails to Guide,"I honestly feel cheated having bought this little book. The title is misleading, for it is not so much a guide as a poorly written memoir. I was looking for information and found nothing useful here. If you're looking for a thoughtful and eloquently written memoir see Jan Morris's classic ""Conundrum."" If you're looking for a source of information for potential transsexuals - well, I haven't found one yet. You'd do well to just skip this one."
+961,2,Absolutely wonderful,"""The Lion King"" is one of the best movies ever made. It should be cherished as a Disney classic forever. Mufasa is so wise and Jeremy Irons does a really great job of making Scar evil. I would have to say my favorite character is Simba...because he really had some struggles and he pulled through them. This has some really great lines: Ah yes the past can hurt, but the way I see it you can either run from it or learn from it. ~Rafiki How can I go back! I'm not who I used to be! ~Simba You are more then what you have become ~Mufasa Remember who you are ~Mufasa There are countless others, but I haven't the time to name them. This movie is really wonderful. The cast is superb and the comedy is really great. It is probably the greatest animated film of all time. Not to mention that the music in this movie is absolutely PHENOMENOL, especially in the scene at the end where Simba climbs Pride Rock. Whoever designed this music has some real talent. I love this movie, it is marvelous."
+962,1,Too promotional--like a brochure,"this should have been given away for free considering it just promotes the authors' company. Additionally, there are much better references out there--this just provides very little value for the price."
+963,2,Blessings,What a blessing it was to see Jason and Demarco live in San Antonio. They inspired me beyond belief. Their voices are dynamic and both have a wide vocal range. The music is filled with the holy spirit. I am sure it will be a blessing to you and if your in a relationship it will offer you hope and the will to love without limits! Beautiful!
+964,1,did nothing,"I got the tea fast, and followed the instructions, only drinking 1/2 cup, which had no effect on my system, it taste pretty good though."
+965,1,La Pavoni expresso machine,"I was totally unhappy with the coffee maker as it leaked upon the first use and was then told by the seller when I returned it that theywere not sure it was even the one they sent me since it had been ""used"". We only tested it once to see if it worked. After all of thisthe seller held 15% of the total cost (over $150.00 was not returned to me). This experience leads me to believe ""buyer beware"" fromunscrupulous sellers"
+966,2,Still a favorite,"I had this book in a previous printing and lost it in a move. Now that I have it back in its new printing, it's like being united with an old friend. It is the most clear and comprehensive book on Fair Isle knitting that I know of. Also, Starmore presents the material with tons of beautiful photos and lots of tips and unique and helpful ways to describe what's supposed to be happening with the yarns. Starmore is so smart and talented but her writing is not snooty or condescending (like the Principles of Knitting author). I'm going to attempt my first steek with my next project!"
+967,2,By far the best book written about a true haunting!,"The People in The Attic held my attention throughout the entire book! I could not put it down..in fact..I read it twice! It was indeed a frightening tale, even more frightening once the reader realizes it is non-fiction. I recommend this book to anyone and everyone who researches, believes or disbelieves, or has had similar experiences with the paranormal. Definately the best book I have ever read. ::::::applause:::::: to the author for sharing her story. :"
+968,2,"After years, continues to be my favorite book.","Good Night, Mr. Tom is without question one of my favorite books. As a college student, I've read a lot of books. The story in this book is more powerful than most of the intricate symbolism in most classic works of literature.Even without having read it for years (but having read it half a dozen times), the story of Willie and Mr. Tom is still something I think of often. I can't speak highly enough of the book. Buy it, get it from the library, borrow it, READ IT!"
+969,1,Get what you pay for.,"It was my way of testing the waters for a smaller price and I wished I would have just bought the Canon EF 28mm-135mm lens and got it over with. The Tamron 70mm-300mm broke and quit telescoping on the first day of use. I'm trying to work with Tamron to get this fixed. The photos I did take were extremely blurry. The 28mm-80mm lens works fine, but the autofocus is a little slow compared to the canon lens for my Rebel XTI. I would stick with the Canon lenses."
+970,1,"Good Flick, Terrible Blu-Ray","Though I really like the movie, this might be the worst looking blu-ray movie I've seen, and I own about 50. There is all kinds of light colored pixelization in the darker parts of the film that pulsates and distracts. I tried to find a feedback system on Paramount's web page, but no such thing seems to exist.Very disappointing."
+971,1,meh,this book takes it self to serious. it reads like a middle school english text book. the only reason i would recomend it is if you are writeing a horror movie and you want to keep it true to the genera.
+972,2,fun workout,This is a fun workout. It can be a little bit cheesy but it gives a good workout. I am not the kind of person that likes to go to the gym or do typical exercise routines so this is a great alternative.
+973,1,Breaks Super Easily!,"This collar is great in theory. But, considering it is meant to train dogs, it should be stronger in order to handle dogs that might pull, etc."
+974,2,A wonderful addition to any romance readers collection.,As an avid fan of Ms. Lowell's I have come to expect good books when I pick up one of hers. This book went above and beyond with its touching story. It made me laugh and cry. All I can say is thank you for another wonderful experience Elizabeth Lowell=)
+975,2,"Crafting a unique, personal, and relaxing atmosphere","Written by gardening expert Keith Davitt (winner of the Herald Award for Excellence in Garden Communication), Beyond The Lawn: Unique Outdoor Spaces For Modern Living is a simply beautiful and exceptionally ""user friendly"" sourcebook of ideas for creating harmony with stone, brick gravel, rock, water, herbs, conifers, planted pots, native and wild plants. Lavishly illustrated with full-color photography, Beyond The Lawn is a treat to page through and recommended for gardeners everywhere looking to add a bit of originality to the grounds outside their home. Offering a vast panoply of materials for crafting a unique, personal, and relaxing atmosphere, Beyond The Lawn is a welcome and enthusiastically recommended addition to professional and personal gardening reference collections."
+976,1,Junk,It worked for like 3 minutes then made a pop sound then the shaft stopped rotating. Guessing the shaft broke really cheaply made. Do yourself a favor and stay away from this cheap piece of plastic.
+977,2,I Love. Love the Kohler K-10282-CP Forte Single-Function Showerhead Polished Chrome.,"It's the best thing we have bought. We Love, love it. it makes a world of difference from the other shower heads. I would recommend this to anyone. it' worth every penny."
+978,1,Poor quality product,"These headphones have good sound quality in fact the best I have heard in a behind the ear headphone, but after 6 months the right ear just quit working. The headphones were never damaged and I called philips and they said I only had a 6 month warranty and it was up so they were ""really sorry"". I only jogged with these headphones there is no reason the right ear should just stop working after 6 months, plus I received them asa gift, after they came out so my family paid the full 50."
+979,2,Marvelous book.,"This book is a staple in our family. Every 1st born in my extended family gets a copy if one can be found. I certainly wish it had not gone out of print. The catchy endless ""B"" word text is still as fresh in my mind as when I first read it to my first born 29 years ago."
+980,2,sooo pretty,"I bought two sets - they're perfect as it's just the bowls, salad plates and dinner plates so I'm not stuck with a bunch of cups and saucers that never get used! the design is sooo pretty - i love that the salad plate has the design over it completely while the bowl and just one little design and the dinner plate just around the edge."
+981,1,Forgettable,It hasn't been that long since I rented this movie and I have already forgotten the thing. That might provide a clue as to how good a movie this is. I streamed it via Roku after paying Amazon for the privilege and though I think I paid less than $3.00 to rent it I still feel a bit ripped off.I cannot recommend this movie in any way.
+982,1,Terrible,As per other reviews this product is awful...The screen protector caused scratches and moved constantly...I have replaced it with the proporta aluminum case.NOT RECOMMENDED but a great idea nonetheless
+983,2,strong grip,"The clamp is strong, I need 2 hands to clamp it down. The black little plastic covers at the clamp tips slide off easy. I suppose one could glue them back into place with some glue-epoxy.Just haven't gone through the trouble of doing that, yet.For at home use it works fine, anything fancier and you are in the professional grooming business I suppose. (Like an extendable flex arm which rotates on/from your ceiling around the dog :D)Haven't used it but a few times."
+984,2,VIVA LA VIE BOHEME,"Rent is a phenominal, energetic, and wild musical. I saw the show when it came down and every scene was drop dead exciting. For people who have yet to see the show, this recording is a perfect hors' dourve It brings out the full flavor of the show. from beginning to end.Anyone who wants to lynch that PHOENIX Guy type RENT RULES"
+985,1,Piece of (expletive deleted),"This was my fourth and final FM transmitter. I have finally given up. This was by far the worst of the four I have tried.Here's a list of all the reasons this FM transmitter is horrible:1. It broadcasts engine noise.2. Even with perfectly empty stations, you will always have interference and static, without any rhyme or reason. Somedays it will be clear and the next day it will be staticky.3. It doesn't have enough signal strength to create any reasonable volume at all.4. Eventually it will give up and stop broadcasting all together (mine stopped working less than a month after I got it--this is of course generously granting that it ever worked at all, which it didn't).My Belkin Tune Base is now acting as a $60 ipod charger. I gave up and bought an $8.99 cassette tape thing that plugs into the headphone jack. I finally have the sound I wanted from the beginning."
+986,1,Limited Temperature Range,"I thought this was a great item until it got really cold one night. Weather report next morning said it was minus 30F and I wondered how cold it was at my house. Checked my wonderful new thermometer and it said the minimum temp was -21. Turns out the range of this pricey instrument stops at -21.8, according to the manual.If you live in North Central U.S. or Central Canada, you can either use this instrument to fool yourself into thinking you're someplace warmer or you can send it back and get an outdoor thermometer that can cope with the real world."
+987,1,Garbage!,My puppy Paw Paw hates this stuff.And I hate it to. It get's my whole house plus the inside of the toy stink. And my next door neighboor dog Fluffy the Bichon frise ate this stuff one time and ended up in the emergenciey room! But she is better but needs to rest for a couple days.
+988,1,Not one for the long haul,"We chose this seat since it had a lot of the comfort features of the more expensive Britax, and we found it easy to use. However, within a few months there was a problem with the harness (it stopped tightening up completely). Evenflo replaced the seat, but now, 6 months later, we are having more harness problems and they're telling me that 1) it's out of warranty and therefore not their problem, and 2) it's not safe to use. No kidding! We have gone with the Britax despite the cost (a terrific seat, btw!). Evenflo doesn't stand behind their product and will not get any more business from our family."
+989,2,Great shorts,Very comfortable and durable shorts. I bought several pair of these shorts and wear them constantly. I recommend them highly.
+990,2,pure genius,Hugh Masekela has a strong tone.i have always dug his style.this disc reflects his genius.he has quality and texture in his work.
+991,2,Great Tool for English Class,I homeschool my teenage son and use this book as his weekly vocabulary. I copied the pre-test and had him take it to assess his knowledge. The words are divided into lessons of 10 words each. I use a third-party app (flashcard stash) for him to study the words online and test him at the end of the week. I'm impressed with the way the book is broken down and how easily he is increasing his vocabulary. I highly recommend this book!
+992,1,sal is a short story writer,"rushdie's indubitably a dude (everyone on the london scribe scene adores him) but jeez the guy is a short story writer (EAST/WEST is completely brilliant), not a novelist. Fury's just as infuriatingly unfinishable as was Midnight's Children (by Krishna, the guy tries SO hard), the dreadful and ploddy Moor's Last Sigh, and the breakneckedly beginning/quickly petering Satanic Verses...keep on writing for Granta and the New Yorker,Sal--hanging with U@ and being a chumly chum...but please stop him from writing any more big books. go read V2 Naipaul's A House for Mr Biswas, everybody. cheers"
+993,1,should be called resistible forces,"I usually love Danielle Steel, but this one was tedious and I had to plod through it...she kept repeating statements over and over again...very frustrating reading...could not wait to get done with it....definitly not her best!"
+994,2,Definitely worth buying. It was my textbook for a class!,"What can you say about a fiction anthology that a teacher actually used for a college class? Well, for one thing, you can say that it is probably one of the best representations of contemporary fiction that you can buy at a reasonable price.There are so many great authors on here, that I don't know where to begin. The editors basically took every great short fiction author, and popped one of their best short stories into this anthology. I've read the whole book cover to cover a couple of times, and it still manages to inspire.The editors did a good job of selecting stories that represent a broad range of literary styles. Carver's minimalism is represented here, as well as stories from a countless number of his contemporaries. A well rounded collection over all. I think it still might be a little pricey for its size, but it may be well worth it for the present content, regardles."
+995,2,Great stuff!,"I remember this album (remember those???) from the early 80s -- a roommate of mine at camp brought a tape and introduced me to it. That was it -- I was hooked on these English chicks! Surprisingly, there are some very sweet songs on this album -- ""What A Shambles"" comes to mind. This album just brings back great memories for me -- it's great! JAY."
+996,2,Why does everyone hate this movie?,"Why doesn't anyone like this movie? Personally, I think it is the best 007 movie of all time (Well, next to Goldfinger). It is by far the most action packed and most romantic. Even if it wasn't a Bond flick, it would be a classic. I know one reason for its lack of fans is Lazenby. Well, if the people that say that he sucks actually watched the film, they would see they are wrong. He isn't Connery or Moore, but he's still good enough for the role. And if you want to know, he didn't get fired for being bad, he quit because his agents told him it would be better for his career. It has some of the best Bondian stunts ever and also the best skiing scene in any action movie. The bad guy is great and so is the Bond girl. And Lazenby is NOT bad. If you are looking for a new 007 movie or just an action movie, I suggest you order this film."
+997,1,Not for Scooters,"Got this gauge for my scooter with 10 inch wheels. The neck is too long, and the angle is not steep enough to place it in the back wheel. The exhaust and brakes get in the way. While it worked for the front tire, it was an awkward angle. Seems like decent enough gauge for cars, just not for my scooter."
+998,2,why no usa dvd format?!,"I loved this movie so much that when it was over I started watching it again immediately. It was free onDemand from Comcast. The day it vanished from the onDemand menu was one of the saddest days of my young life. And now I can't even find it on DVD. I just don't understand why it can't be available in America! I mean, don't they want people from outside the UK to buy it?! I love love LOVE this film!!! I hope eventually it does make it to usa compatible dvd format :D"
+999,1,Too snobby for the budget traveler,"What ever happened to South America on a shoestring? Dydynski often sounds like he holds Venezuela in disdain as a dirty, dangerous, and messy little Third World backwater rather than someplace somebody might actually want to visit. He comes off like a gringo snob, and his personal hotel preferences obviously lean towards the five-star end of the spectrum. Missing here are all the excellent low-cost, unique, and out-of-the-way options I used to turn to Lonely Planet to find. No descriptions of night life or fun things to do, heavy on the historical landmarks. Here and there the book waxes useful when the location in question is someplace Dydynski seems to have liked, the rest of the descriptions are not helpful. Also: many of the phone numbers I have tried from the book are incorrect. I haven't compared this book to other Venezuelan guides, so can't truly make a comparison -- but I suggest you start with another guide first."
+1000,1,"Cheap, in more ways than one...","I was so happy to get this small keyboard and was ready to order another until I tried to use it. Within 10 minutes I was frustrated undoing unintentional typos, put it back in the box, and intend to get a refund."
+1001,1,can't review it because I never got it,"I never received Baseball's Greatest Hits, which I ordered on 8/25 from charsong3. I e-mailed them two separate times and didn't get a response. I probably won't order from Amazon anymore."
+1002,2,Hooked on the Brothers!,"Super Mario Bros. is a video game movie that is memorable in the way that may surprise you. The witty dialogue and rapport between Bob Hoskins and John Leguizamo as Mario and Luigi, respectively, make this film a real treat upon repeated viewings. Although it features a look that may remind people more of Blade Runner than Super Mario Bros., it has the same charm in its set design that other 1990s science-fiction films have, such as Total Recall or Demolition Man. The tone shifts all over the place from light and comedic to dark and frightening, but the sheer inventiveness on display here make Super Mario Bros. worth a watch. Dennis Hopper gives a performance straight out of a David Lynch film in this one. Watch this flick and I guarantee you'll be hooked on the brothers!"
+1003,2,Nice Cd to Start witth,when i first got this cd i knew i got it because i was looking for a queen latifah sample and to my amazement it was there and i heard the song in its entirety..and i must say its a really great song its number 8 and the sample comes in around 6 mins in...its recognizable horn sample to unity.
+1004,1,"Okay, but not their best.","Die Prinzen are known for their ingenious lyrics, and this album has some of that. But here they seem to be lost; they seem not to know if they should be a rock band or primarily a group where choral singing has more prominence. The result is an album that sounds more angry than one might expect; so it's not as much fun to listen to."
+1005,2,For a contemporary R&B CD this is quite good.,"As someone who does not like most post-1988 R&B, I will say that this CD is quite good and that Montell Jordan has much to offer. While no match for the truly great Soul Men (Luther Vandross, Al Green, Isaac Hayes, Lou Rawls, etc.), Montell Jordan obviously has very profund roots in both Gospel and '70s Soul and they shine brightly throughout this CD."
+1006,1,Didn't like the sound.,A very poor version of upgrade. I did'nt like the sound quality at all. I was searching for the original sound
+1007,2,What else can I say that hasn't been said already?,"This was the second piece of work by Judy that I ever owned.I can't tell you how many vinyl sets I wore out. To have the entire concert finally available on cd is an honor. Although the vinyl and previous cd editions were good-this one tops them all. It's pure Judy-what else can I say. Buy it, put it in your cd player and be prepared to be blown away."
+1008,1,Highly overrated,"I chose to see this film because it is in the list of Cannes winners. While most of the movies on that list are really great, ""Rosetta"" was a big disappointment for me. I consider myself sophisticated enough to enjoy not just the pure entertainment-like moies, but the art movies as well, but ""Rosetta"" is neither of those, in my opinion. I could guess what artistic message is sent to the audience with the use of the shaky camera (maybe the director didn't have enough money to pay for a professional cameraman?), but whatever it is, watching ""Rosetta"" is a very unpleasant experience. The absense of any plot, and the annoingly repetitive scenes make it even worse. I think ""Rosetta"" is one of these movies that pretend to have some artistic quality where there is none. ""Rosetta"" is certainly not one of the mainstream movies, but this fact alone doesn't make it a good movie."
+1009,2,A fascinating world of angels and demons in West Africa,"I find this book increadibly fascinating. It shows a reality where angels and demons mix in the lives of individuals and in the development of a country in West Africa.Time and reality are changeable according to each person's understanding of time and the different shapes of life and death. The space of each individual's soul also depends on that person's understanding and as Ben Okri says, if you can SEE you will discover that some people have a soul which is three kilometers wide. The book is a positive challenge to the reality of a Western mind!"
+1010,1,do not buy!!!!!,"I was interested in this item, because it sounded to be true. Well as you always hear if it sounds too good to be true it probably is. I bought this item because I could not believe it was good for the claims. After a couple of weeks, it would not turn on and has no reset button. If you go on the website the product is no longer listed. Need I say more DO NOT BUY THIS PIECE OF xxxx"
+1011,2,Why is everyone grumbling about this book?,"Police work isn't always like the show ""Law and Order"" - exciting with a lot of plot. What this book gives us is the everyday workings of a police officer. I'm personally enjoying this book and reading it for what it is."
+1012,1,Save your money,"If you have read The World anabolic review, then this book will teach you nothing. After I received this book and flipped through it I realized I wasted my money bigtime."
+1013,2,Representing Detroit in a major way,"Terry your PR people certainly have not been doing your album justice. You said you'd make it & you did!!! We need to hear more of you on the airwaves here in the ""D"". I hope the next one you drop gets more play than your current CD, it really should, it's the BOMB!!! Until then...SHS fo' life!!! :-)"
+1014,2,great controller!,All i have to say this is a great product... hasnt given me any problems.. so a must buy for any playstation 2 owner...
+1015,1,Not that good in quality,"I used to regularly buy wild oats raisins and they were the best in taste and quality. I tried Spicy World black raisins hoping it wouldn't be that different. But when you eat these, you will get the feeling that the raisins have been dipped and coated in sugar. I have heard that as raisins get stale and lose their freshness, they get the sugary feel and taste and that's what I experienced with these raisins. If you really want good quality raisins, go with something else."
+1016,1,There are good books and then this is this book,"I am still stunned I wasted my money on this one. It's obvious the person that wrote it knows nothing about weapons usage or Martial Arts. This is some of the worst reading I have ever MADE myself do. From what I understand, this was the authors first book. I hope he didn't quit his day job"
+1017,1,Not as good as the movie would make you think...,"The movie is probably better than the book in this case, because Rice's writing style is very flat - almost like reading a screenplay. Her storytelling ability is good but she doesn't really have a writing style to go along with it. Not really recommended."
+1018,2,**A WORLD OF HOPE'S REALITIES POSSIBLE!!**,"Everyone needs to see this - ""The Secret behindThe Secret (Extended Edition)"". It CAN truly change your life if you are open and willing to truly take in what Esther and Jerry's Abraham Laws of Attraction mean as in ""like attracts like"". It's all about the ""MAGIC OF BELIEVING"" which was actually a book I read many years ago on the same idea. Very THEOSOPHY like with energy as the basis of all and manifesting into reality. Idea -> thoughtform -> reality are the basics of it all. Feeding your ideas with positive engergy via visualization techniques and positive affirmations. The concept of ""Eywa"" fromAvatar (Three-Disc Extended Collector's Edition), also a must see for all. You CAN be a MASTER of you own universe and EVERYTHING IS POSSIBLE - PLEASE BUY IT NOW & ENJOY ALL THE WONDERFUL & ABUNDANT GIFTS LIFE HAS AHEAD OF YOU THAT YOU NEVER THOUGHT POSSIBLE & PLENTY FOR ALL TO GO AROUND!!"
+1019,1,Another broken adapter,"I had this adapter for about a year before it broke on me. Its a shame, because it was so small and easily packable.."
+1020,1,Did not work well. Had to Return,"I have had this product before, and it always worked well with my Uniden cordless phone. That is why I had high expectations for this headset, however, this particular item did not work well from the day I got it. I was able to hear the caller clearly through the headset, however, callers complained of significant background noice (e.g. sounds like rushing water) when I spoke to them. I contacted Plantronics, and the representative was able to hear the problem over the telephone. She instructed me to return the headset, and they would replace it overnight, however, I had to pay shipping for the return. I am not satisfied, as this added to the cost of the headset which was defective when I received it. I sent it back last week and have not yet received the replacement, so I cannot comment on that quality. (I have to repeat, however, that I have been satisfied with this product in the past.)"
+1021,2,Just what I wanted,"Good value. I simply needed a ball bag to quickly and easily move balls from my storage rack to the park whether near or far - simple so I didn't want to pay to much. It weighs next to nothing which is good when I walk and keeps balls from rolling all over when I take the car. The bag is a bit big for just a few balls but sometimes I throw in all the balls, baseball mitts, a frisbee, etc. I own and holds all well. This bag is exactly what I needed and does the job. The quality is good and seems like it will last. Perhaps a dark color bag would be better than white cause I don't think using bleach to clean it would be a good idea. Glad I bought it (we'll see if I still feel that way in a few years, but...)."
+1022,1,A naked boy covered in blood.,"What is the most scary thing in the world? Well, according to the extra material on this DVD, in all cultures the most scary thing must be a naked teenage boy, covered in blood.A teenage boy, covered in blood. Walking. Sitting. Looking ""scary"". Accompanied by ""scary"" music. A weird script, going in different directions. And maybe I should write ""scary 'music'"". Because the ""music"" consists mostly of sound effects. Maybe that's symptomatic for this film. It's strange, and goes in different directions. At least the music and the script coincides in this manner..."
+1023,2,classic book,great book if you are trying to teach you children spanish . its also a good book for potentially bilingual children.
+1024,1,Pretentious nonsense,This is the most over-rated film since Eraserhead - and at least Eraserhead was visually stunning and less then 5 hours long. This video is boring and plotless and visually ugly. If it was in english no one would bother with it. Don't believe the hype.
+1025,2,Fantastic,"What a fantastic show. Of course, the stupid execs for the channel canceled it. Too many good shows go the way of the garbage dump."
+1026,2,Great little MP3 Player for those who don't want/need iPod,"Nothing for me to add that other reviewers haven't said already except to comment on the little joystick and the armband. On the joystick, it's great and makes navigation a snap without even having to look at the player. You might not like the joystick if: (a) you have very large fingers, (b) you are somewhat uncoordinated, or (c) you are not so good with technology. On the armband, it's fine unless you have very big arms."
+1027,1,Garbage 4 Life,I have watched this numerous times & it's ridiculously STOOPID! The camera work is a joke & could have been recorded on a cell phone at the time for better quality. Also the cameos by Carrot Top & former UFC light Heavyweight Champion Rashad Evans adds to the goofiness of the movie. I can't believe the director was allowed to do sequels after this. The only good thing on the movie is the speech by Tony Tomahawk which turns out being in the deleted scenes. In the scene Tony teaches Toro about the streets in a weird but sense making analogy about lions & sebras....
+1028,2,Excelente,"Tego es la fuerza en la musica latina. Es una tremenda mezcla de son, salsa, reggaeton y hip-hop. Que estupendo!!!!!!!"
+1029,2,Not even one half complaint.,I got the book just a few days after the purchase and it was in new condition as described. Perfect transaction.
+1030,1,Same book different name,This is the same stuff Robert has told you in his other books. If you have any of them don't bother.
+1031,2,Wonderful read,"I started this book because my son is a rower and I'd hoped to learn a bit more about the techniques and the mindset of rowers. Sara Hall provides that, but so much more. Her account of coming to grips with an abusive relationship is delicate and sensitive. Many middle-class women can see themselves caught in a subtle dance with a domineering, controlling, cagey husband. The strength she finds through rowing and her connection to community is beautifully portrayed. I encourage every woman to read it."
+1032,1,NO GUIDES INCLUDED,I not only recieved 2 sets of the 13 dvd box sets BUT I recieved NO guides that it specificaly said that would be included in the shipment. There were no replies to my emails as to where my literature was. I ended up selling my second box set and work out to the one I kept. Still an awesome workout none the less... it would have been better if this seller stuck by their word of what would be included in the sale.
+1033,1,Not Chricton's Best...,"This book was totally lacking in imagination. The characters were underdeveloped, and the plot was rather uninteresting. I would rather recommend a couple of his other books, ""Sphere"" and ""Timeline"" over this poor novel."
+1034,1,stunned by the good reviews,"I didn't make it all the way through the movie so I can't comment on last 20 minutes. It's hard to imagine that the end of this movie could have rescued everything that came before. I felt that I had no real connection or affection for any of the characters, particularly Barney, who was desperately self-absorbed. It was impossible to believe that 3 beautiful women would fall for this guy, not only because of his dreadful personality but because he is SO physically unattractive. Aside from really disliking the characters and wondering what the plot was, I thought the pacing was excruciating. After a while I went to the bathroom and just never came back. Did I see the same movie as the 5 star reviewers?"
+1035,2,Bowflex,Easy to assemble and received packasge on date that was promised. The UPS guy even helped me carry it to the room that I use it in. I have been using it for over a month and it works as promised. Great exercise product that does not take up to much space.
+1036,2,Anne Hathaway's delights,"Anyone who would like to see Anne Hathaway break out of that squeeky clean Princess diaries mode to see a fully grown and downright sexy woman... must buy this DVD..! The story line sucks, but Anne Hathaway IS worth the price of this DVD."
+1037,2,Just what you need,"Nice case and just enough room. It's not the most padded computer case I have ever had but will do the job. Zippers and nylon are sturdy. Haven't tried them in airport security yet, but expect they will hold up just fine for a few years."
+1038,1,Tedious!,Maxwell's writing is enjoyable but the restraint of his characters makes the story very slow-moving and boring. Reading this book was a chore
+1039,1,eh,"if you want to read about jesus, pick up your bible. not this book.this book is but a cluttered mess."
+1040,1,Jerry Subletts opinion,"Updated reviewThe announcement has been made as of February 17, 2009 - Our voices have been heard and it has happened! The original music has been restored to the wonderful Fugitive series starring David Janseen. I am changing this review to ***** (5) stars with anticipation that the original Pete Rugolo music has been restored.Thank you CBS/Paramount!Old reviewI just tried again to watch season two vol one of the fugitive. It was depressing! The person that commented that the music of Peter Ruggulo was half the show was absolutely correct. The music is wiped out clean on this volume. I would only want to say that I am routing for Cbs to return the original music to the fugitive. We will be very grateful."
+1041,2,"Very Useful, In a general way","This is a great book for beginners and old hands looking for a few new ideas to expand their color range. It has a large listing of plant materials and detailed instructions for different dye baths and it is one of the few books I have seen that treats both cellulose and protein dyes. My only dissapointment is in the color swatches, which are really just printed ink bloches on the sides of each page. Photographs would have been a much better inclusion."
+1042,1,GREAT FIASCO !!!!,"Hello audiophile friends:Yes, this copy is a great fIASCO because the recording is in MONO SOUND, the STEREO ACTION is lost, the SOUND YOU CAN FOLLOW is Lost, and the Dynamica between the speakers of course is Lost Too. I writed to RCA in Spain presenting a claim because in the front cover of my copy they say "" STEREO ACTION "" and not MONO sound, BUT THEY NEVER ANSWER ME .If you buy this CDs. note that maybe don't is that you wait of it.Fercito( From Monterrey, México)"
+1043,2,Integrity,"Received item as described, fast delivery, will purchase from vendor againThank youM Haynes"
+1044,1,Worst Wireless Mouse Ever Made!!!!!!!,"I never thought Microsoft brand was this bad! Bought it in Dec 2005 and tried it for few minutes and returned it the next day. There are 3 issues I faced with this mouse:1. Mouse buttons was extraordinarly firm, hard to feel a click2. Receiver do not functioned as it supposed to (lose connection)3. Mouse feet do not level on a flat surfaceThe only great thing i found out from this mouse is that the laser system works on glossy surfaces."
+1045,1,Powerful but didn't last,"I've had this blender for a little over 6 months, and I use it almost every day to make smoothies and puree food for my daughter. It does a great job overall in both of those departments. However, the gears on the bottom of the jar that attach to the base are plastic and a few of them have already broken off! I bought this blender for the price and because America's Test Kitchen recommended it. I'm happy with the performance, but I need something that's going to withstand being used on a daily basis."
+1046,1,Another Head-in-the -sand Book,"I don't know why these liberal moonbats keep writing these kind of ""If no one came, there would be no wars"" rants. These left wing types must get use to young bright eyes looking up to them in their protected classrooms and various ""safe"" speaking engagements and actually start thinking that they have the answers. Forget that history is full of violence, and that many evil idealogues started out by telling the ""people"" that peace would prevail if only they would follow that leader. Hundreds of millions have died following such leaders. Be very leary of snake oil salesmen like this author. He has no truths and his advice is dangerous."
+1047,1,Shalimar Eau De Parfum,"Shalimar is the only perfume/cologne I wear, mainly because my husband loves it. I ordered this because it was sold by Amazon and not an Amazon merchant, and it was a great price. I opened it today and it is either fake, or a very old bottle. It doesn't smell at all like Shalimar. I am not worried that Amazon will refund my money, just disappointed that I have to hassle with getting a refund. I ordered it going by the positive reviews, so maybe this was just a fluke. Still, ""buyer beware!"""
+1048,2,"Nude home videos, how could you go wrong!","This DVD is just what my girlfriend and I where looking for. Real, good looking, and no fake actors makes this title that much better. I have had a hard time trying to track down an amateur video that the quality is clear and that it wasn't made on dad's old beta video camera. Hey let me know if there is anything else like this out there! The reason I have given it a 4 star is when ever the sceen was close to a croch shot, they would cut away even on their own produced stuff. Make it real, it is what it is, but make it a must see!"
+1049,2,Worthy of Release,"Screaming for the hell of it, the offbeat crashing cymbals, and rusty sounding guitars. Hmmm... It sounds like some amateur indie rock band. Modest Mouse are certainly not some amateur indie rock band, but they sure as hell were back in 1994. Sad Sappy sucker is an album by a bunch of kids with ADD playing in some shack and wailing away on their instruments. Playing 30 second blurbs and saying ""Wow, that was kind of neat, Let's put that on the album"". This was an album that modest mouse did not want to release until now. Why did they decide to release it now instead of back in 94? I think they just wanted to put it out and see what happens to it. If a hundred people out of 40,000 like it, that means a hundred people like the album. Sad Sappy Sucker is by no means the band's best effort, but it is a fun collection of songs by a young band with a temendous amount of promise."
+1050,2,Unique insights,"a moving, very touching tribute to the unique character ofDr. R.D. Laing.Provides rare insights and stimulates further musings about what made this genius tick.Very enjoyable work."
+1051,2,"Works great, but breaks","I've been very happy with my OXO Garlic Press over the 5 or so years I've used it. The problem is that over time, the metal hinge wears out and eventually breaks, leaving the press useless. I've had this happen with two different OXO garlic presses, so I know it wasn't just a bad batch. I did use it fairly often, so maybe that just comes with the territory. For the third try, I'm going to try the Zyliss Susi press instead."
+1052,1,WORSE CD TONEX EVER MADE!!!,"This cd is so BAD that I don't have an opinion. I thought this was a ""Christian"" CD, Tonex song about his puppy??? Hello, this should be about Christ. There is a track with him ""acting"" like he is smoking weed while singing. COME ON TONEX WHAT IS THIS YOU'RE PRODUCING. I KNOW YOU WANT TO BE OUT OF TH BOX BUT GOD DO THINGS IN DECENT AND ORDER.This CD is the worse Tonex have made. I have all of his cds but I could not encourage someone to purchase this. Sorry Tonex, get back in the sling for God to propel you futher."
+1053,2,Very good start,"Good, very appealing first book of this trilogy. I have to agree with the people who have said that the trilogy could have been reduced to a single volume."
+1054,2,Batman Beyond...Batmobile,My son loves the disc-shooting and this batmobile. Please note that it may be slightly challenging for a child less than 4-5 yrs old to manipulate all the features.
+1055,1,Only if you need another remote,"After playing sports resort where the games are a lot more fun and graphics more presentable, wii play just isn't up to par. I bought this because I needed another remote and since a remote costs $36 (nintendo) or $30 (nyko), I guess to pay a little more for a remote + game may be a better deal. Like many other reviewers have said, it's like a buying a remote for $30 and $10 for the game.However, not all the games are bad. I like the pool game. The shooting game is simple but passable. The cow game is also fun but pretty much for young kids. The tank game is ok. The rest is just plain silly.So if you need another remote, go ahead and get this. Otherwise pass on the games. Better off getting sports resort."
+1056,2,All the Greats,"Everything you would want for an overview of Bobby's talent, with some live performances. His version of ""Higher & Higher"" always gets me. and "" Eighteen Yellow Roses"" which he wrote himself is one of the greats."
+1057,2,eBook option is great!,I'm so glad eBook options are starting to be available for textbooks. It beats carrying heavy books around and increases the chances of having it near me when I'm in a reading mood.
+1058,1,"Pretty Good Option, Revised Score 4/5","EDITED REVIEW: It seems as though they wised up and started packaging these with the silicone nipples (at least according to the new product description). With the silicone nipples, rather than those horrible hard rubber things, these bottles work very well. REVISED RATING: 4/5, though Amazon won't let me change the stars above.ORIGINAL REVIEW: I liked these classic bottles, and they are safe and BPA-free. However, the nipples are horrible. They are hard and thick. The baby sucks and sucks and gets hardly any milk. It's finally too much work for too little reward, and even our incredibly good natured boy becomes frustrated. Waste of everyone's time."
+1059,1,tinny sound,"I purchased these ear buds as a replacement for the ones that came with the philips mp3 player after one of my cats got to the wires. First, I tried a Sony pair that sounded great, but hurt my ear after only a short period. I thought since the original pair sounded all right and didnt hurt to wear, I would give them a try, but one listen and they went back in the package."
+1060,2,Wherever She Goes!,"This disc is amazing! I love every minute of it. I won't compare it to the Merm's, Angela's, or Tyne's versions because they are all great in their own way. What else can I say about Bernadette Peters that hasn't already been said. She is truly a gifted, phenomenal, talented stage presence. Definitely buy this CD."
+1061,2,Moby is awesome!,"From Natural Blues to Bodyrock to Southside, Moby is awesome. The was he captivates you with the sound of ever song is amazing. This man is very talented! Get this DVD if you love the CD."
+1062,2,great price and light weight,"Great light weight stand. good support for light flashes and umbrella.i hate the way the legs fold out i pinch myself sometimes opening and closing them, other then that the vertical adjustments is great and the air cushioning prevents damage when opening lock, equipment slides slowly down."
+1063,1,why did i let myself get dragged back in!?,"so you think i would have learned from my bad run in with season 1 but i was baited with an FMA boxed set from japan. so one of my friends sits me down and i endured the repetitive action, the mind numbingly bad monsters, the grating voices and a charachter so gay that we must all fear him. oh yeah, did i mention that sailor moon rarely wins her own fightssayonara, until i get tricked into another season(yeah right)-cya space cowboy"
+1064,1,dont use on anything thicker that tinfoil,I paid 15 dollars and waited 2 days for this bit so i could finish a project. i had to drill 3 holes in 1/8 inch angle iron. it didn't even make it through one hole before it dulled and became useless. it says metal/wood/plastic on the package but i don't know what metal it is referring to unless its tinfoil. i got dewalt because of the name but what a disappointment.
+1065,2,Created to be his Help Meet,"I wonder if this book shouldn't have been called ""Have a New Husband by Saturday""."
+1066,1,more water comes out of attachments then unit,Looked forward to this unit...now must return because it leaks terribly at the point of attachment..tightened over and over...tried new washers..still leaks....
+1067,1,Great -- except for missing episodes.,"Quite enjoyed it up to the entirely missing Episodes 9 and 10. No subtitles, commentary, fine, no problem. But that just ruined it for me. Lionsgate should at least post them online."
+1068,2,Country Baby video,"Wonderful!!! My son learned his colors by the time he was a year old. He watched this video in an infants' seat when he was only 3 and 4 months old, and he still loved it when he was 2 years old. He loves his Baby Einstein collection, but this and Star Spangled Baby are definitely his all time favorites."
+1069,2,Convenient,"It keeps my windshield clear during the rain, sometimes even not need using the blades. The only thing I don't like is it seems wiper contents too much fluid, and quite difficult to get them applied evenly on the wondshield. Leaves messy traces, sometimes even not able to see through the windshield clearly. (esp. at night)"
+1070,1,Very let down,I agree that this series has become very drawn out with the last couple of books and this book has just made it alot worse.It's amazing the amount of irrelevant details that this book contains. the only detail that I can think of that Robert Jordan missed out is how long Matts hair nose has grown from page to page.
+1071,2,The Psalms-Narrated by Alex Jennings,"Beautifully packaged--exquisitely narrated by English actor Alex Jennings. This 4 disc pack of the complete book of Psalms is well worth the price. This narration is the Kings James Version, which makes it more majestic sounding and comforting. Wonderful listening experience!"
+1072,1,Very boring with no point!,About a guy and his sister and her son and their mother!!!! It just doesn't stop!
+1073,1,OK Fun But Save your money,"This toy is cute and that is about it. If you need a decent speaker system look elsewhere. This dog does not follow commands, he does not walk. In fact all he really does is three things. Shake his head to the music (kind of like the old coke cans and dancing flowers) and light his lights to the music he is playing through the bad speaker he posesses. THis dog is a cute novelty, but only a novelty. Buy at your own risk."
+1074,2,"Canon E1, Camera hand strap",This product is very helpful while shooting my camera off hand for extended periods. The strap properly adjusted allows easy insertion of my right hand while providing a loose glove fit during shooting. The result is ability to have a relaxed grip on the camera without the chance of dropping the camera. I have one of these installed on each of 3 different Canon cameras. It does require installing an extended battery grip with has the required attachment point or a Pro Camera such as the EOS1 film or digital cameras which are already intended to accept this accessory.
+1075,1,I Had To Return Mine,"I bought mine new, but it looked as if someone had already opened the box by the time I got it. On top of that, the light bulb didn't work and one of the base clamps was bent. I sent it right back for a refund.I thought I would save some money with this particular model (The picture looked good), but I think I'll spend a little more next time and hopefully get something that works."
+1076,2,Pricey but for good reason,"Perfect for my wife and me. Holds a lot, allows good air circulation for air-drying, and easy to keep clean. Tried cheaper one-piece dish racks but they are very inferior."
+1077,2,Skiers out in the cold,"About a group of world-class skiers and their attempts to out beat each other in downhill competitions and out-bed each other with the hangers-on that seem to follow them from Aspen to Squaw Valley to the Alps. Narrated by Jack, the tough one, the super-competitor who has an epiphany at the end: ""I had wanted to beat everyone in the world at this one thing [downhill racing]. Today that wanting had been cast out of me like a devil exorcised."" (He pulled out of a race after he was halfway down the course when a racer in front of him fell.) He's in love with Georgiana and realizes that maybe now he should settle down with her and do something ""useful"" with his life. There's nothing especially extraordinary about the plot, but what casts the book beyond the average is Hall's superb writing, especially the dialogue, which I think is in a league with John O'Hara's: it's fresh and exciting and, most of all, totally believable. Worth checking out for that alone."
+1078,2,good diet,"This book lays out the diet plan in simple terms, but also gives an explanation for the reasons behind each step. It makes the plan easy to follow and easy to reference if there are any questions as you go through the steps."
+1079,2,A blast from the past!,"Great to see good anim. again, with a PLOTLINE! None of the dumb lack-of-plotlines that you find in the ... ""Mighty Morphin Power Rangers""(how I hated that show!)Voltron is right up there with He-Man and ThunderCats.A must buy for anyone who loves 80's stuff!"
+1080,1,Worthless book,"The book is extremely sketchy and is comprised of java and j2ee notes. The explanations are skimpy and does not provide clear understanding. There is not enough depth for it to be a useful reference, nor enough breadth for it to be a handy learning tool. Move on to something else."
+1081,2,puzzled,"Splendid Sci Fi. Like some other readers I thought that the moral concerns over genocide were utterly pointless. If you are facing a powerful enemy bent on your complete destruction, one that attacks without reason, and with whom there is no possible negotiation, you have only two options: kill or be killed. If you are still alive afterwards then you can suffer moral pangs and engage in feelings of guilt in whatever degree you see fit. In any case it wouldn't have been genocide since that race was firmly established on the second and still shielded solar system.My problem is the title. What does it refer to? Who or what is the Judas? How or why is this Judas chained and then unchained?"
+1082,2,"Book 1 and 2 are GREAT!! If you read anything, read them!!!","I, too am awaiting book 3. Book 1 and 2 are outstanding. I've read a lot of metaphysical books over a 20 year period. But these, are to the point. They are guidebooks for a better humanity, told in a humorous and uplifting way. I expect book 3 will be even better!!"
+1083,2,Best Computer Game I have ever owned!,"This game rocks!! I can play it for hours and never get bored. You can choose from a huge number of places and ages to have a battle in. I've owned it for over 2 years and I'm still not tired of it. If your looking for an awesome strategy game, this is for you!!!"
+1084,2,Good and cheap,"I bought this item more than a month ago, it has no problems so far. and it's very handy, apart from being very cheap compared other items with different brands."
+1085,2,Learn From My Fail,"I put this netting on top of three blueberry bushes in my back yard. Unfortunately, the netting was draped in a way so that I caught it in my riding lawn mower. Please note that this netting will get caught up in the lawn mower blades, wrap itself around the blades and then cause the mower to stall. Thankfully, after an hour of cutting this away from my blades, my mower was in working condition again. Alas, the netting is a jumbled mess and I have to order it again.Pros:-Keeps the birds off your blueberries!Cons:-Will get caught up in your lawn mower if you don't stake it down! Learn from my Fail"
+1086,2,This is the bomb!!!!,"This is a great addition to anyone's library who is interested in health and nutrition. This book in addition to ""NourishingTraditions"" has revolutionized my thoughts on food and food preparation, on what's truly healthy, etc. This way of eating has also revolutionized my body!!!!"
+1087,1,Didn't work for my cable box,"Didn't work for my digital cable box, decided to use it for my big Onkyo receiver. Had to line up the infrared with exact precision to get it to work, not all that happy. Wouldn't recommend. It does allow my Onkyo remote to work without aiming anywhere close to the unit itself, so it does have some function."
+1088,1,"Dull, Plotless Nonsense","This film is not art nor a great cinimatic achievment. It has no story, dialogue, or acting. This does not deserve much recognition, and it's surprising that it's gotten what it has.It's a bore."
+1089,2,Great car learning,"I have not finished all the CDs yet, as I am listening to each a few times before moving on. I am so far impressed. At first it seems lacking instructions, but with repitition is great. They are the best CDs I have purchased so far."
+1090,1,"Nice wallet, really bulky","Very nicely made leather case, however it is very bulky and does protrude from the belt. I went back to using the low profile belt clip supplied by my HP iPAQ."
+1091,2,Coming across as a child.,"In her book, The House On Mango Street, Sandra Cisneros gives us a first hand look at her young life growing up. She has decided to get away from the typical novel approach to writing and tell her tale in a series of many small vignettes. She uses metaphors very easily, but too often, and it can get somewhat sickening. Otherwise, the stories are at times interesting, often familiar, but always delightful and humorous"
+1092,1,This book is NOT McClellen's translation,"The description and reviews are misleading in calling this the translation of David McClellan. The book I got is NOT by McClellan, is full of typographical problems, and does not have the same selection of readings as McClellan's book. Bait and switch."
+1093,2,An album of unprecidented power.,"If you like German Power metal, eg (Helloween, Manowar) you'll like Edguy! Going through The songs on this album (for the mostpart)they rock! ""Babylon"" is fast paced, yet diverse. The heavy classical element shows very well in this song. I listened to this album, and the first thing I said was, ""These guys can sing!"" Full vocal harminozation impressed me greatly! ""Land of the Miracle"" was one of the best power ballads I've heard in a LONG time. Their keyboard player is very good, as well as strong guitarists, and a heavy deep bass. The vocals are especially strong, the lead singer has a pleasant voice. I highly highly recommend this album! All the songs are strong written, and highly enjoyable from a progressive metal point of view!"
+1094,1,Dexter has jumped the shark,"As a die-hard Dexter fan, I was somewhat disappointed in Season 5...but MAJORLY disappointed in Season 6. Having Debra appointed as lieutenant was ridiculous and her inappropriate affections toward Dexter are just plain icky. Dexter seems to be playing pretty loose with the code these days too. And what about Harrison? Dexter is too smart to believe that his lifestyle won't rub off on that kid. Meanwhile Dexter doesn't even try to make Debra watch her mouth around him anymore. Sorry to say that I'm probably done with Dexter unless Season 7 has some more believable scripts."
+1095,2,Dont pass this book up,Artemis fowl was absolutely a wonderful book. It is fantasy novel. This book was good for all ages. Its very interesting and never has a dull moment. This book draws you to it by the cover.Once you get into it you not going to have any luck putting it down. the fathar you get into the more you wont want to put it down. Dont pass this book up.
+1096,1,I hate this album with a passion...,"Although I am sure I will get a lot of hell for this from people, I really truly CAN'T STAND this album! I am a casual fan of Miles' work from the '50s like 'Birth of the Cool' and particularly the classic 'Kind of Blue', but, this???? What is this???? It's like an awful mismash of noise and, if you ask me, it is an insult to traditional jazz. I realize that I am going to get a lot of people's blood pressure rising with this review, but I must speak my opinion on this. This album, and the EVEN WORSE Agharta album take the beautiful art of jazz and try and meld it into something new and ""hip"" that is completely unnecessary. I apologize to all for this review, but I hate this album, and fusion jazz in general.0 of 2,365,788 people found this review helpful."
+1097,1,Who gave woman a free pass?,"I am aficionado of good books on technical analysis and this is certainly not a good one! Many of the techniques described in this book were invented by me as well many years before this book was published. Subseqeuntly, I discarded them into my recyclcle bin as worthless. I am not even a full time investor, devoting a good share of my time to real estate. I am just surprised that people are gullible enough to accept this tripe. This expensive book, expensive seminars, expensive internet service. What is this huckster going to come up with next. Perhaps she has gotten away with this sham because she is a female in a predominanatly male business. I too am involved in the national technicans group and I am embarrassed to be associated with such ilk. I have much to contribute to this industry and look forward to doing so in the future. In the meantime, I can only hope these market charlatans mend their ways."
+1098,1,too bored to finish,"This book seemed more like a contrived promotional piece for PETA than a romance novel. The heroine was rightfully distrustful of humans because of their poor treatment of her, but we are suppose to think she is clean while she literally sleeps with a pig? The hero whose name I've already forgot because all she does is call him English is one dimensional and an idiot terrified of saying anything against her beliefs lest she get angry. Yes we all know what PETA believes, humans bad, animals good, never mind that the natural world is far more brutal, how many humans easy their young?"
+1099,1,It's a bust,Same experience as other reviewers who used it with the Zune 80GB - tons of static noise that makes charging and listening at the same time unbearable. Bought it as part of the Travel Pack and it's the only one out of the 3 components that doesn't work. Bummer. I was really looking forward to never worrying about my Zune running out of juice on long road trips.
+1100,2,"Not essential, but interesting","I like this book for the inspiration it offers and the interesting historical information. This would definitely not be a beginner book--you would want to understand sock knitting and have made a pair first.I will probably knit a few of the patterns and use the rest as inspiration. I'm glad that I added it to my collection, but it is not essential. Also, if you are looking for a learn to knit book try Antje Gillingham's Knitting Circles Around Socks. She uses the 2 circ. method, and it is very easy to understand.Overall, a nice book, but not essential."
+1101,1,Why is this crap on the marketplace?,"Madacy is a cheapjack Canadian label notorious for putting out watered-down versions of Time-Life and Rhino collections, but they are all horrible re-recorded versions cut by the artists years later. This is no exception, as all but one song in this collection are re-recordings. And some, like ""Stagger Lee"", ""Heartaches By the Number"", sound NOTHING like the originals! And even worse: the lead singer on the Platters and Danny and the Juniors are NOT THE ORIGINAL LEAD SINGERS! BLECCHH!!"
+1102,2,A PERFECT FOLLOW-UP,"to Mer De Noms. Maynard and friends do it once again with these haunting ballads. This time around A Perfect Circle brings a more dark and somber depth to the table with more tribal sounding softer rifs in Thirteenth Step. Fans of Tool to Tori Amos will appreciate the album. While this album goes even more softer sounding than Mer De Noms, it seems to have alot more depth and spirituality. Arguably Maynard's best vocals since Aenima. Josh Frees does an amazing job on the drums. You don't even miss Paz (who went to Billy Corgan's flop band Zwan.) With the steady decline of music quality (i.e. cookie cutter pop rock/pop punk) in our day and age, A Perfect Circle sheds a glimmer of hope once again."
+1103,2,Easier to install than it looks...,OK. It's not like anyone gets to choose this product; it all depends on your refrigarator. I do want to point out that it is very easy to install and you don't have to turn off the water to your fridge.
+1104,1,Quite possibly the worst movie ever made.,"There are so many things wrong with this film,one cannot be sure quite where to begin.The lack of plot?The lack of enthusiam from the actors?The terrible musical sequences?Don't even bother renting this dud."
+1105,2,Shawshank Shooting Script-KC review,Wonderful! Very insightful and informative. A great addition to anyone's bookshelf. I highly recommend it.
+1106,2,FUN TO READ. RELAXING.,I have read Sue Grafton's A to N books. I have enjoyed them all. Them seem to take me away to another life. Which does not bother mine. They are indeed light reading as well as fun to read. She has made Kinsey the girl next door as well as a female Spencer for Hire. I can not wait for the others to be printed. We still have O to Z to hear about.
+1107,1,Not loungy enough for me...,"This is just plain boring swing, there is no zing in the arrangements to make it special, or worth listening to more than once, this went straight from the cd player, into the waste basket. Not even one good uptempo song on the whole set. Boo!"
+1108,1,A guide only for those who have lots of money to spend on outfitters,"I immediately returned this book. First, there are very few backpacking/hiking trips described in this book. The range of adventures described is all over the place, with some you might need specific skills in like skiing or climbing. Second, and worse, is that all of the trips described require the use of spending big bucks to hire an outfitter to take care of everything, not exactly and adventure as even the author admits."

+1110,1,"LIquid, not Grease","I was surprised when I opened this and saw that it is straight liquid, not a grease. Not sure if I can use it at all, I think I may use a rag and put some of this on it then rub it on the base of my elliptical... We'll see how that works out though. Would not buy again."
+1111,1,Not the typical Kerastase,This product simply seems to separate the hair and make it stiff. I have not noticed any instant or long-term benefits. I was surprised since I have used Kerastase for years.
+1112,2,Bring Me To Life won't make you feel dead inside...,"WoW I am not a fan of this genre, so this was actually the first album that I bought and I truly loved it. This CD doesn't have many tracks, but big things come in small pacakges. I'd rather get 10-tracks that sound good then a 20-track CD with not much on it."

ITS RAW VIBE AND OPEN NATURE KEEPS FANS WANTING MORE. ALL I CAN SAY IS IT'S PROBABLY THE BEST ALBUM EVER RELEASED BY A POP PRINCESS. GO CHRISTINA!"

+1116,2,Very good song book.,"Iz is fantastic uke player, so the songs are really great. The only odd thing about this book is that, since Iz uses guitar tuning on his uke, the book is a little hard to follow using standard uke tuning."
+1117,1,not complete,Came in good timing. One MAJOR problem. A pump which doesnt include the needle they advertise coming with the product is uselesss!!!!!!!!!!
+1118,1,could have been great,this is a very funny movie and it could have been a great family movie but the language is unacceptible.language is why i gave it a lower score
+1119,2,Love it,"I bought this mixer to make sourdough bread, I typically make bread in a food processor, but sourdough yeast quickly dies in high heat so I bought this. It's perfect, my bread comes out soft on the inside, crusty on the outside, I can't ask for more. Make sure to knead your bread on setting 4, I tried setting 2 as the manual says but all it does is swirl the dough around not doing much. It's great for cookies and cakes too, I'm not much of a baker but I hope to be because now I have no excuse.I also got my rebate back in about a month. I got the magazine rebate of $14.95 as well."
+1120,1,An exhausting exercise in perplexity.,"Oprah, dear one, WHY? Give me Chekhov, Wharton, Plath, Dickens, Poe, but Faulkner? I appreciate the online assistance at Oprah.com and the Monday night lecture series to aid in understanding the atrocious grammer and quasi-English, but...the revelations to which it all leads isn't worth the pain and suffering of reading Faulkner.Did this author have an LSD addicition, because let's face it...he ""ain't right!"""
+1121,2,best,"broght for laptop to tv connection, works best, i have previous positive experience for this product, this time i ordered 2 ,, still using it, very good"
+1122,2,Midnight Come Again,I was very disappointed in the ending of the previous addition to the series. The return to a more normal Kate was welcome and Mutt was heart felt. A we get older we all experience the loss of someone very close and dear. This installment allowed us to remember those feelings if only from afar.
+1123,2,Best impulse buy ever,"This was a pure impulse buy based on an Amazon suggestion when I bought something else. I love science fiction but love good writing even more. Never heard of this show when on Fox, never watched the Buffy stuff so I was totally taken aback by the incredible quality of the Firefly shows. The character development, the acting and the dialogue are amazing. I popped Disc One into the DVD player one boring Sunday evening and ended up going to sleep at 3am. Work disrupted things so I had to finish on Monday night. Now I am watching the whole set over again to catch the great lines and nuances that I missed the first time. May even go right back to it a third time. It is that good. You will NOT be sorry if you just order this with no background on Firefly. Finding these little gold nuggets are what makes life so much fun. I am even ordering the Buffy DVDs. If this guy is this good, I have to check out his other stuff. Whedon is someone to keep your eye on. He has some serious talent."
+1124,1,Not impressed,not really impressed with this cane. I actually hurt myself using it. Makes a nice hanger ornament in my closet
+1125,1,I want the old Anne Rice back!,"I can hardly believe that the first three books of the Vampire Chronicles were written by the same author of the latest three. When i read Interview, and Lestat and Queen, I fell in love with the characters as well as Ms Rice's story telling talents. I don't understand how her writing could have changed so much. It doesn't seem as if the first 3 books were written by the same person that wrote this boring, drawn-out, plot-less story. It doesn't work Anne. Please, give us more of the interesting, easy to love stories like you used to! And why must you ruin our respect and love for these characters by telling us about child molestation, which is what goes on in here. I don't get, how the best books I have ever read (the first three), could be written by the same author of this latest disaster."
+1126,1,"Oldie, Moldie Italian Songs","I ordered this CD, thinking it would satisfy the tastes of my Italian American family when I FINALLY got married a few months ago. Well, when I heard it, I was truly disappointed. . .it was just a compilation of oldie moldie Italian songs, with the standard arrangements, and no one in my family really liked it. We ended up with the Italian wedding CD by a band named Roman holiday (which I ordered via amazon.com) My goodness, it was like NIGHT and DAY. . .what lively songs, what passionate arrangements. THAT CD made my wedding, and I can't stop talking about it. Thanks. Auguri!"
+1127,1,I HATE IT!,"Unless you want Extremely small cookies, don't by this product. The metal is some cheap arrangement of non-identifiable shapes that bend easily. NOT a good product."

+1130,2,wonderful,"I watched this as a kid all the time, but we lost the tape and I could never find it again. Partly because I couldn't even remember what it was called. But I found it here one day and was so excited. Now it is on VHS. I wish it was on DVD but we still have a VHS player so I was ok with that. It was in new VHS condition."
+1131,1,Not the best book on the shelf,"I used this book in a Course of Study class at Claremont School of Theology. However, I have taught most or all of the precepts that Mr. Savage would have you think are his own but have been in numerous other books and publications since I was in graduate school in the middle 70's. While the ideas are good, his presentation leaves many holes in the concepts and is not nearly as thorough as it should be. I would not recommend this book to anyone who is serious about counseling at anytime. There are many, many books on the market that are much better."
+1132,1,Awful,"This is an amateurish, poorly produced documentary about Shakespeare. Maybe it was a class project for a video class."
+1133,2,"Works fine, but a little wobbly","It does not fit all legs well and stacks of two make a wobbly support. However, for ""normal"" use the bed does not fall over. Even the kids have not caused the bed to tumble over. It seems the design could be better, but it works."

I HOPE THE NEXT CD WILL BE BETTER THAN ""THE JOURNEY"" HOWEVER I STILL LOVE ALL OF THEM!!!!!!!!!!!!"
+1135,1,Disappointed,"My daughter got the PS1 with LCD screen combo for Christmas a year ago, and when we opened it and hooked it up, the screen did not work properly. The screen was black, but if you held it at an angle, you could tell there were graphics present. Yes, we adjusted the contrast and nothing helped. We took it back and they had no more in stock, so we went to Sears. We got their last one and I asked to hook it up and try it out before we left--just in case. Sure enough, it did the same thing, so we left empty handed. Finally, we found a combo unit at Target and it worked--for about 7 months. A few months ago, it started going on the fritz and if we unplugged the cable and fiddled with it, it would work again. It finally quit working alltogether. It was great while it worked, but now I'm leery as to how long another one will work. Is a 90 day warranty sufficient for an item so pricey? I don't think so. I'm faced with replacing it, because to fix it would probably cost even more. What a shame."
+1136,1,okay,"Some stuff is catchy, I especially like ""Disappear"", but mostly they sound the same as as myriad of other bands (default, creed, etc etc). If you like that stuff you'll like this. Personally I've had more than my fill of that sound. There is nothing remotely new here...."
+1137,1,"""Twilight Zone"" theology!","This book as well as its sequel are the product of the author's imagination. Mrs. Relfe claims that she received revelation from God concerning this. However, her logic is skewered.For example, she says that stamping a product with any number containing 666 means that the ""666 system"" is present in the nation's economy. But those three numbers can be found anywhere and NOTHING TO DO WITH the so-called ""mark of the beast"" found in the 13th chapter of the book of Revelation!This is a perfect example of premillennial delusion. It is characteristic of the futurist interpretation of Revelation.Barbara A. Rainey"
+1138,1,Huge Disappointment,"I have to say I was very disappointed. I only liked about 7 or 8 crafts from the entire book. I thought they seemed too complicated and time consuming, especially for the younger kids. I'd recommend ""The Encyclopedia of Bible Crafts for Preschoolers"" also, ""The Encyclopedia of Bible Crafts for Kids"". Much easier and includes a mini lesson."
+1139,1,Didn't work as described.,"This woofer was described as a Professional Premium woofer, it is certainly not. The Ohm loads vary so much that it kept tripping our amps. Once we replaced these (which were intended to be replacements) with Peavey speakers, the amps ran fine and we are back in business, short 80.00 we spent on 3 Pile speakers."
+1140,1,Useful for what?,"I needed a tool to close some very difficult snaps on a window treatment. The yellow doobers on the end of the fingers swivel, so that when I went to secure the snap they swiveled upward and away from, and off the snap. It proved useless. Had they been stationary, it would have worked."
+1141,1,Advertisement on an appliance ?,"I am looking for a new toaster and would not buy this simply because of the word ""POP TARTS"" on it! Appliances with ads now? Give me a break! What's next? I saw one in the department store and people had attempted to scratch it off. I say just don't buy it and send the message to the ad execs."
+1142,2,Chet,"I was very happy with this cd. I have another Christmas album from Chet that I just love and play over and over, so I'm glad I can now switch cd's to hear more from Chet! Would buy from this seller again."
+1143,1,"Groan, groan, groan....","I'm mostly all for the cavity-causing sweet movies with those same plots (boy meets girl, boy and girl fave a problem, boy and girl get together). I've seen dozens of movies like this: She's All That, Loser, 10 Things I Hate About You... but somehow this ranks as a low. The whole movie I knew what the ending was going to be (not surprising) and prayed that it wouldn't be it. This movie wasn't even that cute. But there were good parts, like the foam party scene, and every scene with Jason Biggs (I'm sooooo not a fan, but even though I've seen a lot of his movies, this is his best). I'd recomend this movie if you REALLY love this type or you just want a movie and don't care which."
+1144,2,Good coat,"This coat is warm, and easy to wash. The problem of it is no waist. I relocate the buttons, it is now perfect."
+1145,1,I just don't know.,"I bought what may be a wonderful phone, etc. but I just dont know. There is no users manual except for a CD that only runs on Windows. Cingular is maybe unaware that not everybody uses or wants to use Windows. There does not seem to be any other recourse. My phone died. I was forced to sacrifice a morning hoping to find a competent sales person in my local outlet. After a very visible tantrum, the manager appeared and showed me how to fix the phone, without tools.I bought a phone filled with features that I cannot understand. The phone and screens are not intuitive. Prospective buyers should force the sales people to demonstrate the phone at length and then explain how to obtain a working guide. Otherwise, Caveat Emptor!"
+1146,1,Very Disappointing and Not Like Josh Groban!,"I've been to two of Josh Groban's concerts during this tour and have loved both of them. I watched this one on PBS but didn't buy the DVD because it is NOT a worthy release for Josh. His voice is lovely and usually perfection. It isn't during this particular performance. I can understand why so many people were disappointed. I was too. If you love Josh Groban, perhaps it would be best to wait until his next studio release. I have everything he's done, and multiples of them too. I have to admit that I was at a loss as to why Reprise would release this one. I've noticed low reviews here and on Barnes & Noble. So there are many other sites and people from all walks of life who either bought it or saw it on PBS, and didn't care for it. To sae part is that Josh is a hardworking singer. Is singing is rarely like this. His concerts are terrific in person. This is not."
+1147,1,Bergner betrayed trusting prisoners.,"Author Bergner gained the confidence of several prisoners in Angola Prison who told him things that would turn their lives into hell if the authorities of the prison were to learn off them. Bergner writes, ""I was sickened, too, by the immediate knowledge that I would write everything he told me, and that my words would probably cost him years at Camp J."" This is a place Bergner describes as receiving no natural light or circulating air, a place where prisoners are only allowed a few hours a week outdoors in a small dog run. Bergner sentenced these men to this hell so that he could publish this mediocre book. I'm sorry I participated."
+1148,2,Great wrinkle free option,"This is my second set of sheets from this manufacturer. They are wonderful- hold shape well and are super soft. My one complaint is they just don't last. Holes started appearing at about 15 months, so keep that in mind when purchasing."
+1149,2,Outstanding!,I have studied this subject for years(as a layman) before coming across this book. This book will cause you to study scripture fervently. A fascinating read indeed.
+1150,1,Horrible,"I thought this movie was quite possibly one of the worst movies I have ever seen. Parts were slightly humorous, but the movie in general had a poor plot, bad acting, and no redeeming value. Definitely not worth the [$$]+..."
+1151,2,Nice item with Canada map,"If you want a GPS with Canada map then you can't go wrong with TomTom, I purchased two of them for my sisters up in Canada and they love it.However, I regret buying the unit from TigerDirect. Beware of purchasing stuff from TigerDirect, I purchased 2 TomTom One Xl and within 2 week they dropped the price another $20 per unit. When I called for a price adjustment they refused to give me one, their reason is the item number is different.What Tiger direct does is they change the item number so that they can call it a different item even though the product is exactly the same. This way they don't have to refund/adjust your money. I never had a problem with Amazon on price adjustment."
+1152,1,so so,I was not happy with the service of the seller.But I am very happy with the respond and service of amazon.com.Thank you for crediting my account.

+1155,1,"David Eddings, Lite Version","This might be a good book to introduce someone to Edding's writing style, it's all there, little bits of humor and all. It's not as intimidating as four volumes, and it spins along at a good clip. A ""seasoned"" Edding's fan will be disappointed though. To shorten the long travel times, a device is used. I call it a ""T.A.R.D.I.S."" which is what the famous time traveler ""Dr. Who"" rode around in. It looks like a blue phone booth, but ""it's bigger on the inside than on the outside"". The TARDIS flies through time and space, as does Edding's version, which is simply called ""the House"". Speaking of time: Two thousand years pass and the kingdoms are still the same kingdoms as before. The general language hasn't shifted, and Althalus can fit right in without any troubles. He doesn't even get lost on roads that weren't around when he was around two thousand years earlier! There are other, quibbling things, but enough's enough. Pick this one up for a quick, light read."

Rocky decides to retire but eventually decides to fight Lang in a rematch. END"
+1157,2,Slipknot?,"Is this the same band who released IOWA? Finally, they proved to the world that they can play and write songs. Literally, everyone I know loves this cd. One of the best current live acts on the planet, but are insane to charge $55-$65 for concert tickets."

+1160,1,Awful,"Impossible to get the meat down the feed tube. Once it's there, the suction from the pusher sucks most of the meat away from the auger. An awful purchase. Don't buy it."
+1161,2,What everyone else said,"I heard about this band through Amazon.com and decided to pick it up based on what the amazon users said about it. You guys pretty much nailed this group head on. If you like Mnemic, Raunchy, Soilwork, Fear Factory or In Flames, this band is worth a listen. Of the bands mentioned, I think they sound the most like Mnemic.They have a sound that really has a lot of potential. They are a little rough around the edges but overall they have a good concept. I really can't wait to see what this group does next. With the right producer, they could really make a name for themselves. For now, pick up this CD used like I did for $6.00."
+1162,1,Waste of MONEY!!! Can I have it BACK??,"I brought this because I have a small business and I wanted something I could use but also affordable. No one told me that this software doesnt' work with Windows XP. So I called Microsoft Tech team for assistance, they told me that don't have any technical information that could solve my problem for Microsoft Money 2004. They had helpful tools, hints, solving problem issues, for 2003, 2005 & 2006 but not 2004 so they were useless. The problems is that software didnt' give me the option to input my user name just password so every time I tried to log in it would tell me invalid username & password. Instead of giving me a box to enter my username it only gave me a file destination location. TRUST me, this software doesn't work with XP."
+1163,1,"Nice poetry, but the music????","I was so looking forward to this collection. But, despite the interesting lyric writing, I found one song musically to be very like the next, and the next. I guess I will go back to playing the old favorites with which I can sing along and look the fool to my neighboring commuters; save your dollars for one of those tapes/CDs."
+1164,1,Clueless,"After the film ended my wife and I looked at each other and said ""What the [heck]! was that about?"" It was 2 hours of aimless incoherent ramblings. The ten clues included in the DVD case didn't help at all. Watching it three or four more times may help but I doubt it. The only memorable moment was an excellent Spanish version of Roy Orbison's ""Crying""."
+1165,2,Very Fun Family Racing,"My husband, myself and my 7 year old daughter have a blast with this. We race against each other, along with doing the one player curcuit mode and taking turns to see who can place 4th or better. It is easy enough for kids but still challenging enough to keep us big kids going. Each race is different because you can pick up nitro's to come up from behind or pick up money to boost your car better. Which makes it nice because we all have our turn in winning the game."
+1166,1,Good until it broke in less than 4 months,"I liked it because I could charge various things with it, not just a GPS, but the little piece that actually connects to the GPS is a shoddy two-things-wired-together that broke after less than 4 months of use. I'm someone who's careful with my stuff, too, so this is pretty annoying."
+1167,1,"Bias, Bias, Bias","After reading this book and comparing it to real life, if the things that happened really did they are extremely rare. If they are more likely made up because the people wanted more than they were given. They wanted someone or something to do the work for them."
+1168,1,Endulge Nutty Fudge - not their best,"I really love most of the Atkins bars. I think the brownie fudge has a strange aftertaste that doesn't ""natural"". The brownie caramel bar is much better option."
+1169,2,great,Great book. Very addicting. Had a hard time pitting it down. Now working on the other books in the series
+1170,1,Nothing great day 2,I bought this product once before and took for about a week. I did not notice it helping with sleep. I continued to wake every night. I also don't notice that it calms me down. I just had a screaming match after taking 1 teaspoon in hot water and hour before. Maybe it takes a longer time to notice? I didn't notice anything the last time either but I will continue to take it as I need magnesium.
+1171,1,HORRIBLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!,"This is the WORST movie ever!!!!!!!!!!!!! It is very drawn out, absolutely NOTHING hapens!!!!!!!!

+1172,1,"Hum, I wonder what I am not seeing here","I hate to be so negative, I am normaly very forgiving, but this is the worst grinder ever.- It is loud (but what grinder isnt)- The beans have trouble getting down into the blades for grinding (beans stored in freezer tend to stick together a little)- The seals on the lids easily allow grinds to fly out all over- Grinds collect on exit into the holder and they stick to the outside of the holder- ...My recommendation: TRY BEFORE YOU BUY!"
+1173,2,Explians what and why your dog does what he does.,This book was recommended to me by my dog trainer. It was very helpful in explianing my dog's silent ( body) language. It is written in a nonscientific form and was easy to read and reference. I would suggest this book for anyone that has a dog or is going to get one.
+1174,1,Meh.,"I received this Bodhran very quickly from Amazon. It was true to size, though felt a little chintzier than I expected. I guess I assumed it would be a little heavy, but this is a very light drum. My big problem with is were two finger prints on the drum head in what I'm guessing is enamel paint, very obvious and plain to see; very sloppy workmanship. Even if I wasn't giving this as a gift (which I am), this is unacceptable. I am returning this and have already purchased ""Trinity College TB-3 Bdhran with Black Rim"" from a different seller on Amazon as a replacement."
+1175,2,Always Sunny,"It is one of my favorite shows, so it is always funny and a show I can watch repeatedly and still laugh....."
+1176,1,No traction in hot water or stock,"I thought I was upgrading from my old metal tongs to something of real quality in getting these nifty-looking tongs. Now I wish I had my old plain tongs back. In trying to retrieve something from hot water or stock, the nylon-coated ends have no traction. As a result, I have some burns to show for using the wrong tool for the job. The ends just get slippery when trying to turn pieces of cooking chicken in liquid, for instance, and random splashing of hot stock as the chicken falls back into the pot. Were these tested before marketing? A big disappointment. Beware!"
+1177,1,Not recognizing specific monitors,"I plugged it in and both my 23"" HD monitor and my 42"" HDTV. They came on at 1024x768 resolution, with a max of 1660x1024 or something like that. The option for 1920x1080 wasn't even listed and my monitor showed up as ""Generic PnP Monitor"". Absolutely would not allow me to change it, even updating drivers. So, I had to plug my monitor into my PC directly, as before, and forget about splitting the signal to two monitors. Oh well, guess I need to buy a video card with 2 outputs. Live and learn."
+1178,1,Boring and stupid,"Don't buy the cd! The guy that gave it 5 stars doesn't know what he's talking about. I also believe that the guy gave it 5 stars TWICE. If you do want a good offspring cd, go with SMASH, Offsprings best. I think you should get ""out of Conversation"""
+1179,1,Disappointed with this product,"I bought this for my 3 year old son and was really surprised at the poor quality, especially since its a Peg Perego. Only one of the wheels really spin. Most of the time we have to push to get it going. For the price it falls significantly short. Additionally there is no reverse. We also bought a Fisher Price power wheels truck for my other son (also 3) which was cheaper and was amazed to see it perform much better. Both have the same power, but the Fisher Price one has a reverse function, both rear wheels spin (which they should)!I'm really disappointed with this product."
+1180,2,Freddie Mercury Tribute Concert,An awesome concert of superstars as a tribute to one of the greatest vocalist of all time. I still have the original VHS tape and love it. This DVD (finally) is a must for all the fans of Queen and Rock & Roll music.
+1181,1,PRINTER DIDN'T WORK - LACKED APPROPRIATE DRIVERS,"BEWARE - Box stated that printer would work with Windows 98. We have a network system that contains two windows 98 SE computers. The CD-ROMS in the box were only for Vista, 2000 and XP. I called HP and it could not make good on the blurb on its box stating that it would work for Windows 98."
+1182,2,"good dvd but showing its age, 1980's.","I ordered this to help train my lab, it is almost solely about using a shock collar. The quality is lacking but the information is good. I would recomend it but only for those who are serious dog trainers and have some experience with a shock collars use already."
+1183,1,Pick a different printer,"Have now worked with two Kodak printer docs, wanting to be able to just drop my Kodak camera on top to connect to PC or print directly. And now two printer docs have soon stopped picking up paper. Sometimes I can manually feed a sheet around the cartridge, but how convenient is that? You can read other with the same experiences, and worse. Pick another printer besides the Kodak."
+1184,2,These will make you slap your granny.,"These eggs are delicious and I mean DELICIOUS! Who would have thought pickled eggs could be so addictive? After my wife and I finished the jar we reverently washed it and swore to keep it to remind us to order more. I swear, we almost cried upon eating the last one. Meawhile, we've tried to make our own but no, these eggs cannot be duplicated. These little guys are life-changing. Buy some now. RIGHT NOW."
+1185,1,ok,"The subject matter is very interesting, the quality of the book is ok,pages a bit yellow, a little musty - but then again, I paid .98 cents for it, so no gripes."
+1186,2,One of the best books ever,"This is one of the best books i have ever read. It is true that it has a strong resemblance to the lord of the rings, but it does have its own story. The resemblances include, Allanon to Gandalf, Shea to Frodo, Flick to Sam, Balinor to Boromir, Hendel to Gimli, the warlock lord to Sauron, the skull bearers to ringwraiths and minas tirith to tyrsis. Though these similarities take something away from the book it is still a great book. It's the basic story for a fantasy book. It's pretty much that Shea is the last heir of shannara so he is the only one who can use the sword of shannara, which is the only weapon that can kill the evil warlock lord. There are many twists throughout the book which make it so that it's not so predictable. In my opinion this book is better than Harry Potter, but is not quite as good as The Lord of the Rings."
+1187,2,Insightful excellent work,I came across this volume while researching for my Masters degree. I found it insightful and well-written. Highly recommended to a student of Renaissance Literature
+1188,1,"A bit flimsy, works ok but not good value for the money","Not a very efficient solution if you need to wrap and unwrap your cords more frequently. It's just a long strip of Velcro, much longer than I actually need so most of the material is wasted and even gets in the way (as you have to wrap it around and around). This also makes it more time-consuming to wrap cables."
+1189,2,"Very handy, both for studio and location","I purchased it in March 2008 and very happy with my purchase thus far. Inexpensive, compact, sturdy. The only reason I rated it as 4 and not 5 is that it's very narrow and you can't sit on it. Otherwise it would totally awesome for any long-lasting event like a airshow or reenactment, when you need to be above the crowd, but don't want to stand the whole day..."
+1190,1,Too pricey,"I got a rather inexpensive pair (with shipping, it cost something around $8), and yet I still feel ripped off. The reason I was looking for new headphones was because the buds that I had were going in and out of working, and they fell out of my ear when I went to work out. These are fine for working out, but the sound quality really stinks. Also, when you turn the part that plugs into the MP3 device, it makes a fuzzy sound (another thing I was angry about with my current pair).I realize that I didn't buy high-quality headphones, but these are really quite bad. If you need over-the -ear headphones, look for them somewhere else, I'd say."
+1191,1,poor england,I can not understand the english people putting up with these royals. They are sleazy humiliating and rotton acting people with little sense. No wonder so many english people came to america. How much of the book is true who really cares. It was fun reading a book where the royals got smashed but good
+1192,1,"Good One, Dave","Boy, you really had us going there for a couple of years Dave. And here we thought you'd lost all creativity and edge along with your addictions. Fortunately, in 2001, you got us. Anyone who called you a sellout ate their words with a piece of your mind on the side. This album was a pretty good joke, Dave."
+1193,1,Dont Recommend It,"I purchased my Krups XP2070 less than 2 years ago and it has completely quit working. While the unit is attractive, it is functionally slow and difficult to program. It seems as though the unit lasted only slightly longer than its 1 year warranty, I wouldnt recommend its purchase."
+1194,1,"Good for a while, but not forever...","I've had my setup for well over a year now. Never had any problems with it until I switched to using the Coaxial Digital Audio input. Now it will play for a little while, get crackly and then kill the sound for a while. After a pause, it eventually comes back. There's a reason this is at the price point that it is."
+1195,1,There ought'a be a law.............,"Against some people being allowed near a keyboard. This book is the biggest waste of time I've ever seen. Harry might have been the star at IBM, but frankly, I wouldn't want to be the one working on his code. There is virtually nothing to be learned in this book. Maybe - just maybe - a general overview of some of the options out there, but that's about it. And if you're leanings are towards Java, forget it. This is an IBM/CORBA focused book. Get a life Harry. And stay the hell away from the keyboard!"
+1196,2,Great sound good value,Well worth the price - if you're looking for light mob ile headphones these are it.
+1197,1,Please read the constitution,"Everyone has the right to voice their opinion. You say liberals are commiting treason?""Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to greater danger. It works the same in any country.""-Hermann Goering (1893 - 1946)Commander-in-Chief of the Luftwaffe, President of the Reichstag, Prime Minister of Prussia and Hitler's designated successorThe second in command of the Third ReichThat statement reminds me MORE than a little of facism. But thats just my opinion."
+1198,1,"Nice Camera, but breaks easily","This was a nice camara until it reached 2 years of use. An error message came up, focus seems broke down. Camara was not dropped or anything. I searched online, and found a lot people having same problem, some saying by hitting the side of it might get rid of the error message, but it didn't work for me. Don't buy if you looking for something that you can use for a longer time period."
+1199,2,Great budget ear phones,"I bought these ear phones for working out for two simple reasons: They are cheap. They have the rubber, sound-isolation tips. While the sound quality of these ear phones is not as good as JBuds (I own the J2's), they are still much better than the standard ipod earbuds. They are also quite comfortable, and fit in my ears perfectly. For the price you really cannot go wrong. If you are not looking for exceptional quality (which I assume is true if you are considering $5 headphones), and you just want cheap, reliable, comfortable earphones that effectively muffle outside noise, these are for you."
+1200,1,not so easily installed,"After purchasing a package with Firewall and 2003 Professional edition I tried installing them at home on XP and was pleased when Firewall was so simple but then distraught when Antivirus would no scan my email nor my system. I spent hours on tech support, uninstalling, reinstalling and trying to restore my system to an earlier date. I suspect that XP has something to do with it but who knows? Anyway when I was sent by the system failure message to the tech support site there were over 400 similiar problems. My solution to get another firewall and antivirus and start over. My system was clean and virus free before the installation and now I am at the library to use the web as I am reluctant to use it at home. Be careful what you get even if it does say it is compatable- maybe not so or [more] to get Norton's help to install- should not have to do that!!!"
+1201,1,Oh my word,"Wow...That's all I can say. I haven't laughed this hard in a very long time. As a ""card carrying grobanite"" At first I was appalled by the idea, and then when I listened to the samples I honestly just LAUGHED!!! and laughed VERY HARD! Maybe these guys would be good if it wasn't Josh Groban's music, but probably not. The voice QUALITY isn't as good as the orriginal.... My advice, buy the real thing. Josh is currently alive, well, getting grounded, on tour and only 23. My question to you is why waste your money if you can get the real thing? (Especially if the tribute would make Josh flip in the grave, if he was dead)"
+1202,1,We should have learned from Red Hot and Blue,"This CD would have sent Mr. Coward to the grave, or at least to court for character assasination. Some songs are very well done. Sting, Paul McCartney and Maryanne Faithful are delightful. Texas is tolerable. Robbie Williams, Suede/Raissa, and Vic Reeves are not. The Divine Comedy is neither.The good songs are good. The bad ones are so bad that they are not worth listening to get to the next good one.This compilation makes me think of Picasso repainting the Sistine Chapel. A great artist in his own right, but most definitely not cut for that particular job."
+1203,2,Acrylic painting techniques/ how to master medium,"This is aa very inspirational book worth every penny I paid for it. I am very happy with the paintings I've produced, after reviewing the techniques in this book. Very refreshing!"
+1204,1,KC light covers,"This item was misrepresented. It shows in the picture that the letters are small, but when we received them, the KC letters took up the entire surface. I was very disappointed, as was my son when he opened them for Christmas."
+1205,2,"6 Years, 6 Feet","This is a collection of some of Frankenstein Drag Queen's material. For those of you who don't know, a little bit of history for you. Wednesday 13 had a band called Frankenstein Drag Queens. They released 4 studio cds. When the FDQ'S broke up, he took the songs to his new band The Murderdolls. They recorded a cd and toured the world. Wednesday then took his other favorite FDQ songs and re-recorded them, as well as recording some new material. The results are on this cd. While some of the re-recordings on this cd are not noticeable,some do sound different to me and it is those that I favor the originals over. The new material however, is great. I have the Import version with 3 extra tracks and I don't regret at all the extra spending for it. I highly recomment this cd, as well as taking the time to hunt down the original FDQ cds. Some are easy to find, while some are a little harder to find. All in all, well worth the time and effort."
+1206,1,"Please pass, trust me.","Good intention, but script was weak, and actors were not exactly compatible with each other, as well as with the characters they were assigned. Life is too short not to pass. Many dialogues were like cliche, not to mention that there are quite a few good movies on bad cops already in the market."
+1207,1,Horrible,The worst Metallica CD made until of course Re-Load. Both of these CDs are not what true heavy metal / Metallica fans want to hear. I am truely let down and don't know if I will ever buy another Metallica CD after this major disappointment.
+1208,1,Very Poor Photo Printing,"Bottom line: does a poor job of printing photo's. Tried the help desk, but they knew little more than me.I wanted to like this program. It's the only one that I could find that would allow me to print the inside of a card and then the outside. That would negate the need to feed a printed photo back through my printer to print the inside. I have a 2ghz Dell and a Canon S820 printer which does a great job printing photo's.I inserted a high res photo into my card. The print out was very grainy. I tried lightening the photo and it helped a little. I then printed the same photo OUTSIDE of Print Shop and it looked great Obviously the problem is within Print Shop. I sent it back. I can't believe it would print photo's so bad, but it did."
+1209,2,"Transformative, Awe-Inspiring, Creative Scholarship","This is one of the most incredible works on epistemology ever written! Finding the indigenous undercurrents of European civilization, Duerr inspires us to discover our own lycanthropic potential. This is literally a life-changing book. Anyone interested in paganism, psychedelics, enchantment, and protean lyncanthropy should plunge into this book like the lifegiving wellspring it is! This book should continuously be in print, and should inspire sequels as well. There is nothing like this book anywhere. Everyone should read this incredible work of scholarship and synthesis."
+1210,1,false advertising,The description for this item was clearly 2 Meter/6.56 Feet and the cables I received were exactly 6 feet long. I will also mention that the gauge of this cable is down right pathetic. It is by far the thinnest USB cable I have ever seen.
+1211,1,Import not worth the additional cost,A prior reviewer is correct. The import version contains the same discs as the domestic. Only the printed materials are different.
+1212,2,You want this movie! Not the terrible remake.,"This movie was produced at a time when America still had an interest in space travel.A masterpiece. Suspenseful, very well written and well acted. Terrific storyline, with decent special effects for the period.My favorite line in the movie. Scientist: ""such power exists?"" Spaceman: ""I assure you, such power exists""."
+1213,1,Smaller handle than old models,"Do not purchase this model if you have large hands. The ""comfort"" series is far less comfortable for me than the old style.If you have large hands, you should get this one instead:Flexi Durabelt Leash 16 ft - up to 150 lbs in BlackUnfortunately, Flexi does not pay attention to the size of the handle. All leashes for small dogs have small handles. Some leashes for large dogs have small handles compared to other models. Flexi's branding on the leashes is poor. Make sure you get the right one. Just getting a large dog leash will not ensure that you get a large handle."
+1214,1,Pratically pure fantasy!,"This book needs to be in an alternate world setting. Kennedy is overused. ALso another kennedy thinking that he can rule congress and get votes is impossible in this reality. I would not bother unless you want a fairy tale that becomes cumbersome in it's fantasticness and characters just bouncing along to their determined fate.the ending seemed kinda sad but predictable. Though a woman for president, if we make is so far, isn't to far off I hope."
+1215,1,"Horrible, awefull, terrible, pathetic","What else is there to say? This albumn proves that Metallica should change their name, they have nothing in common with the Metallica of old."
+1216,1,A waste of time,"I never read the books this was based on, I agree with everything said about the plot rambling on and on with no point. I was left wondering where Deborah went?! She was rescued alive and then you never see her again, her husband who was killed earlier also never reappears when all the other characters ""come back to life"" in the river world.I kept watching hoping something would pull it all together, but it never happened. The crazy ending makes me believe that it is destined to happen over and over for eternity."
+1217,1,Do Not Try This With Windows 7 64 bit,"Wish I had researched the existing reviews before I purchased.Have had very good luck with Netgear products in the past.I couldn't get this PCI Wireless card to install on a Windows 7 64 bit workstation. The driver on their website indicates it is Windows 7 compatible, but a call to tech support confirmed this is not Windows 7 64 bit compatible. You will get a code 10 error. Google this and you will see what I mean.I am returning the card. Tech support indicated none of their wireless PCI cards are Windows 7 64bit compatible. Hard to believe with all the new systems available."

+1220,2,Excellent Timex,"Just received my watch on the 9th of Jan. and I immediately went to the gym to use it! Works great without gel, sync-ed up with the tread-mill without a problem. great."
+1221,1,Excruciating...,"I can't believe how long this took me to get through. And I can't believe this is the same author of Red Storm Rising and The Hunt for Red October. Rainbox Six was a pretty rough read, but this one has it beat by a mile. Don't expect any real action before, say, page 750 or so, and even then it's tame. Do expect extremely long and boring dissertations by Jack Ryan as to why he hates being president. And lectures by his friends as to why he should be. Do expect everyone to know everyone else. Nary a character is mentioned that Jack or Robbie or someone else doesn't ""know"" or has ""heard of."" Avoid spending your money on this massive, yet boring, book."
+1222,2,Snow shovel,I wonder how I lived so long without it! I'm able to clear my driveway in half the time. On heavy snow I still use my snow blower but the shovel is a lot quicker most days. I like the metal blade - it scrapes right down to the driveway.
+1223,1,"Impractical advice, a comedic book","This book tells BS, don't follow this shiz, i would suggest many other resources, for example How to Succeed with Women (updated edition)Change your posterior, change your interior naturallySubscribe to daily dating golds emails (google it)"
+1224,1,didn't like anyone in this book,"This book had some interesting half-baked ideas about society, but it felt like a bunch of stories thrown together, straining for connection. I didn't really like or relate to anyone in the book, and felt vaguely depressed upon finishing it. I wish I had stopped reading in the middle..."
+1225,1,"Good Story, Horrible Formatting","I just started reading this, and it is a good story so far. However, the Kindle formatting is atrocious and that is what this rating is about. No quote marks around dialogue? Seriously? Paragraphs in the wrong places? Really? This is a real disappointment and difficult to read as a result. Hopefully as I read it the formatting will improve, but I looked ahead a bit and it does not look promising."
+1226,2,Good Compact Camera,Took the camera to Alska. Had great results. Worked well under cold and sometimes wet weather.
+1227,1,A spastic GPS,"The best thing about the Magellean 3000T is the large screen.Sometimes this gadget works like a charm--other times it just seems to pay no attention. Actually, the touch screen function decides not to work. You can sit there and touch, rub, hammer; to no avail. I got tired of the whole process and was ready to send it back to Amazon. First, I called Magellan's help line (the phone number was hard to find); apparently you go to the diagonostic page and touch each touchscreen icon. If you hear a click, it's okay. Finally it works most of the time. Damn bunch of trouble and frustration for a machine designed to reduce trouble and frustration."
+1228,1,Love jersey shore but hate the midleading DVD,I am sooo pissed that I did not get what I paid for! I paid for UNCENSORED and its not. It just like watching it on TV. DO NOT BUY IT! They were probably in such a hurry to make a quick buck or two. with that being said..can't wait for season two! :)
+1229,1,terrible book,"I had to read this book for english, and I hated it. The book has no theme, except that narcissim is okay. If you are a narcissist, and enjoy drinking, this book is for you. Otherwise, stay away from it."
+1230,2,AMAZING!,"This flat iron is just amazing! It heats up so hot that one swipe through and my wavy hair is so straight and flat. I had been using a cheap discount store flat iron. All the plastic parts broke within a few months. This one is high quality. After using it the first time, my daughter took one look at my hair and said,""Whoa! Your hair is so much straighter than with your old iron!"" I just love it. The only bad part is that now I have to share it with my daughter!"
+1231,2,Monster by Walter Dean Myers Review by Billy Murphy,"The book Monster is a wonderfull courtroom drama. The book is about a guy named Steve Harmon who is arrested because of robbery but it was not only him a guy named James king as the thug was part of and so was a guy named Richard ""Bobo"" Evans as the rat.All three guys are on trial for the murder of a guy named Mr. nesbit who was the the owner of the drugstore the tryed to rob. The setting of the book is either in the jail or in the court room the jail is nasty with lots of mean people and the court room is just full of lies. The resolution is that somebody will go to jail or that they all go to jail or somebody goes home but you will have to read the book and find out your self.""THE END"""
+1232,1,Worst Xanth story I've read so far,"Most of the characters in this book were shallow things, easily forgotten. The main character was made so incredibly different than his appearance in Castle Roogna, that I no longer cared about him. Even Crombie, who is only referenced in this book, had his character changed.The story was moderately entertaining, and was the only thing that kept me from quitting this one early."
+1233,1,"very, very average...","If your looking to be entertained by action and suspense, U571 is up your ally. But for those of us who demand more from a war film, this work sadly will come across as an American ripp-off of Das Boot, especially intended for audiences that are not familiar with the latter masterpiece."
+1234,1,I have seen this technique before....,"I have seen this technique before in others unauthorized bios... The writer simply goes out searaching for magazines and TV interviews featuring the star on focus, thatn releases a book without having PERSONALLY interviewd anybody related to the star!! Simply sepaking, it's almos a job of Control C, Control V !! (COPY AND PASTE!!)"
+1235,1,what a pretentious piece of twaddle,"Absolutely no one talks like these characters - the prose is not only excessive, it couldn't be farther from reality. If you really want ""explosive prose"" and ""in your face action,"" I recommend James Ellroy."
+1236,1,I'm traumitized for all eternity,"I couldn't even finish this book. Someone might find it interesting and the only reason why I gave it more than one star is because it's decently well written. It disgusted me though. There was too much giving birth, nasty sicknesses, horrible death ext. I truly wish I had never picked this book up. It will haunt my dreams forever!"
+1237,1,bought this for my grandson,I would not recommend this tricyle. The handlebars are very awkward and the front wheel has a very small radius. Also the seat is narrow and uncomfortable.
+1238,1,Doesn't cook rice well...,"...and isn't that what a rice cooker should do?! I have had this rice cooker for years, used it numerous times and it never, ever has cooked a batch of moist, fluffy rice. The rice is either hard and undercooked, or a mushy blob. Scorching and burning are frequent. I keep trying different types of rice and different ratios of water:rice, but nothing has worked. I am FINALLY getting it out of my kitchen. Spend a little more money and get a better model to start with!"
+1239,2,The truth be told,"I read Godin whenever I can and he is a little whacky and so am I so I guess that is why I like him. But this one is really good. He develops the point that marketing is lieing and then takes you on a journey where that makes sense and what you can do about it. I think he is on to something with all his work and look forward to whatever he writes. Good read, provocative and challenging and lots of nuggets there for those who look."
+1240,1,Faulty Packaging = Damaged DVDs,The packaging results in bent and/or scratched DVDs that simply won't play. I had to return this and buy each season separately since the packaging on those are different and doesn't damage the DVDs.

+1243,2,Fun adventure filled game.,This was a fun game to play when I didn't feel like concentrating very hard or really being challenged. It's a nice hack and slash. I had a lot of fun with the force powers.
+1244,1,This is 2x the price from the prices in Walgreens.,"I was thinking of buying from here but then I thought of checking out the price in Walmart or Walgreens first.Indeed, the price in Walgreens is half of the price here. As of this writing, the Amazon price is $10.69, while the Walgreens price is only $5.00 for a pack of 8."
+1245,1,Worked only for one time,"I purchased this product. But it just worked only one time and after that, it got solidified and couldn't use it the second time. You can use this only for super clean surface since any dirt on the brush would crystallize the whole liquid and glue would be of no use anymore."
+1246,2,His Dark Materials Book 1: The Golden Compass,"This book is the best book in the world!! It is a must-read for all ages. It's got drama, action, fantasy, and science fiction. After you read it you'll be craving for more! If you have not read this book, read it now!! Heck, I think it's even better than Harry Potter!!!!!!!!"
+1247,2,Basic playyard,Needed playyard with no extras to use with grandson. This was just what I needed at a resonable price. It is easy to put up and take down. Folds very compactly for storage. Is durable and safe.
+1248,1,I can't believe this book is still around,"Believe it or not, my son is 18 now and I read this while expecting him. Since then I've had three other healthy babies as well. But this book made me feel so guilty, and I could never, ever live up to the recommended diet, and I'm a big eater, too. It seemed like a weight trainer would not be able to eat all the food listed.I actually got protein-added powdered shakes from the health food store just to get the recommended number of grams of protein. And I clearly remember being exhausted late at night and forcing myself to eat two eggs for the same reason. I hope I didn't damage my kidneys by forcing so much protein.In later pregnancies I relaxed A LOT and just ate what seemed good and reasonable, and I had similar, very healthy large babies. With less weight gain for myself, ironically.I do NOT recommend this book unless you want to be on a constant guilt trip and be filled to the gills with so much food that you feel sick and bloated."
+1249,2,Brilliant and Evocative,"Millay has been criticized for her lack of technical rigor, but that is the very essence of her accessibility to readers. Yes, she wrote poems that rhymed, sometimes to the point of sing-song meter, but her words carried weight. They meant (and still mean) something, not like the esoteric, pseudo-intellectual hodge-podge that passes for modern poetry. It seems that today's poets wear their inaccessibility as a badge of honor - that only a select group of academic word-smiths can even understand what they have written seems to represent success for them. Not so with Edna. She touches your heart, sometimes even breaks it, with common words, feelings, emotions. You don't have to work for her meaning, it is plainly presented for all to read. But beware! Her poems may be easy to understand, but they are impossible to forget."
+1250,2,"Lovable Belgian detective is brilliant, as usual!","There is something just so lovable about this Belgian detective and his little gray cells. What is incredible about this entire series is the attention to detail on costumes, settings and ensuring that the art-deco feel of parts of England can be recreated. I have always been a great fan of Agatha Christie and, in particular, the character of Hercule Poirot (I have found Miss Marple to be rather annoying). But David Suchet has resulted in a fan following for this character that has little to do with the original character. Each and every little flaw, trait, quirk, is played to great effect. This added to the already-flawless plots of Agatha Christie make this entire series a jewel in the crown."
+1251,1,Be careful,"Before this book came out there was an article about it in the Women's World magazine. In fact on the jacket of the book it reads, ""As seen in Women's World."" I ordered the book after reading about the diet in the magazine. It sounded like a great way to go but I was disapointed. After reading the book I realized that someone was trying to hide the fact that this diet is extremely difficult if not imposible to do on your own. The book's author runs a detox center, where, if you want to spend thousands of dollars you will have someone waiting on you hand and foot while you do the diet. That is about the only way you are going to do the diet. The supplements taste terrible and are very expensive. The book never talks about that of course. In fact I believe the author of the book tried to hide many facts about the diet deep inside the book or left them out completely. So, be careful, it's not what it seems. The book was poorly written in my opinion."
+1252,2,Love it,"I bought this for a birthday gift for my husband. He likes it, and I love it. Expensive perhaps, but worth it. Now I just need to wait for him to finish the bottle of that old stuff he has."
+1253,1,not worth the money,when i bought this gun i was expecting a gun that wasn't the best but better unfortenely i just got bad. on the first airsoft battle i found out a 20 dollar pump gun had better accuracy and range and at 80 feet you have to aim at there feet cause it curves the rounds like a stunt airplane strait up.now the gun its self i mad farly good plastic but you put the gun together in pieces that are held together by 3 screws that loosen often and the orange tip literally falls rite off the barrel and it just happens to be the front site nor are there mounting rails for a scope.so in the end don't buy this GUN!!!!!!!
+1254,2,Millenium,"Quite easily the most complex and fascinating TV programs ever created- not only does the story line compel you to watch, but the cast itself is a remarkable mix of characters to make the story seem more real than it should be.Or is it?After 2 amazing seasons (but a rather disappointing third), this show is still one of the best things that has ever happened to television."
+1255,2,A Good Sampler CD,"This CD is very good for those who have never listened to the Outlaws before. It has the bare essentials, from ""Hurry Sundown"" to ""Green Grass And High Tides"" and more. Plus, it includes live versions of ""Holiday"" and ""Song For You"". It is a great CD for the price. If you own a Greatest Hits Album though, you won't find a whole lot to get excited about on this album. Still, it has the best tracks at an affordable price."
+1256,2,bought as a gift,bought the poster as a gift for my father. It arrived very quickly and he loves it.
+1257,1,Not sure,"I also ordered for Grandson, I'm sure he loves it. But I think it's a little rough. As long as he likes"
+1258,2,Biggest Picture-Biggest Truth,"We have here an Author who has stepped out of the mainframe conditioning of hypnotized humanhood to give us a breathtaking panorama of spiritual and worldly comprehensionn heretofore unprecedented in detail, scope, and magnitude. To state simply, this is THE most awakening book the human race has ever been confronted with. Most people will of course reject the premises of this great Text for it is simply too hard a dose of reality at one shocking time to digest for a mind that isn't at some level already intuitively awake. As for myself my appreciation knows no bounds for I have been given the The Big Picture I have long sought yet have unconsciously known all along. This is my Consummate Confirmation. David Ikce is right on the Mark, as the world shall shockingly discover in very short order."
+1259,2,Cuts Straight To the Bone...,This is probably one of the best textbooks available on identifying human remains. I have found it to be fascinating reading plus I recently had the honor to meet Dr. Reichs. She most graciously took the time to autograph my copy of the book although she did mention that was the first time anyone had asked her to do so.
+1260,1,she can't sing at all,Beyonce is one of the worst singers of recent times.She has one of the most awful voices ever and I am surprised that so many people like her and her claptrap.Dont waste your money on such MTV inspired trash.Remember if it's on MTV then it aint good.Avoid this terrible album and get THE DARK SIDE OF THE MOON from PINK FLOYD instead.Well as far as I am concerned I would'nt touch this album even with a thousand foot barge pole.
+1261,1,Not what Expected.....,I thought this was more of a 'how to' book rather than a less than interesting novel. Perhaps I would feel differently if I had finished it but I just couldn't hang in there. Sorry.

+1264,2,Great Book,"I just finished this book two days ago and I thought it was a great story. Dana Ellison never went against her parents desires even at the cost of her own....until she met and fell in love with Chris Johnson. Together they discovered what love is and what its like to truly have someone in your corner. Her parents were snobby and flat out refused to see Dana as a woman and not their little girl. I am glad Dana held her own with her parents and in the end she got what she wanted...""A Love of Her Own"" Cheris Hodges is a great writer she always delivers a great story."

+1268,2,MUST BUY!,"In order to understand why Carl Cox is the greatest DJ, you must either see him live and/or buy this cd. His past compilations were sort of disappointing, BUT HE BLOWS IT UP AT CROBAR. The tracks he picked were phenomenal. His mixing was impeccable (three turntables! ) and when you included the noise of the crowd, you have the feeling of being there with them. There's a lot of diversity within his track selections, but with a common theme: HARD!As always he spins the hardest during the last few tracks.Definitely a cd to buy for grooving with friends, driving on the highway or working out. There's no way to just chill with this one."
+1269,1,Useless,"This book is terrible. It assumes that only the male/female partner relationship can be abusive. It doesn't talk about family abuse, abuse between parents, siblings etc. Barely covers the surface and offers no real help or advice. Do not waste your money there are better books out there."
+1270,1,Worthless,"By the time you take away the bibliographical information, this article is about a thousand words and contains little more than the dust jacket of one of her books. Don't waste your time or money with this one."
+1271,1,Better Left Under The Rug,"Alanis Morrisette's third studio effort opens with her essaying to us the twenty one things she wants from a lover--another in a long line of ""overshares"" this once compelling artist foists on her seemingly adoring fans. As with her sophomore effort, only to a greater degree, Morrisette manages to bog down her potent melodies with cluttered, New Age garble--it's criminal that she has such a way with a hook, considering that she continues to betray her own best efforts with her overly verbose, undisciplined style of songwriting. Tracks such as 'Hands Clean' and 'Surrendering' chug along with terrific urgency--until you attempt to listen to the lyrics. In fact, about two minutes into each track, you'll be scratching your head wondering""When is THIS song going to end?"" It makes one long for the days when this screaming banshee was singing about going ""down"" on her lover in a theater. Do yourself a favor, sweep this under the rug--and leave it there."
+1272,1,nordic ware tender cooker: caveat emptor,"I bought this tender cooker and never realized that it easily explodes in the microwave, sending water throughout...it fried the electrical circuits on my expensive over the range microwave and now i have to get a new microwave.....please people, be careful...i will never use this item again."
+1273,2,Regular Gift for Baby Showers,I purchase about 10 of these books a year because it's my go to gift for baby showers or when anyone I know has a baby. My parents and siblings often ask me to order them this book for the same gift giving purpose. I think it's a great gift at a very reasonable cost when purchased from Amazon and always quick shipping with Amazon Prime.
+1274,1,Not as described,"This bible is not a large print bible it is just normal print, very disappointed and it cost me 9.00 to return it to the USA, overland which takes about 3-4 weeks, the airmail cost would have been 18.00 postage, half the cost of the bible, my advise is to purchase in the UK, or better still find a better large print bible.Eddie TurnerVery let down customer."
+1275,1,not for me,This book may be good for tose inclined towards Wesley or Methodism but it is not my cup of tea.
+1276,2,Great Book a must have for the game!,"The guide is a must have for the game, main reason the game is very hard, and you miss a whole lot of items and many other things. To me it's nice to have the guide handy when those tough parts come into play. I'd recommend buying this with the game or buy it even if you do have the game already. You'd be surprised on how much is in the game but just not easily accessible without a little help. Also the game is awesome if you love or even like Tactical or Strategy RPG."
+1277,2,My daughter's favorite book,"This book is wonderful. It has only one or two words on each page, but combined with the illustrations, its all you need to tell an entire story. The main and only character is androgynous, so the book ""works"" for boys or girls. And my daughter can read it to me!"
+1278,2,Typcial O'Reilly,"I've learned many programming languages over the years. It amazes me how O'Reilly has consistently produced the best reference material on the market.In this book, I liked the fact the Flanagan didn't overlook details such as security, communication with applets, and compatibility issues between Navigator and Explorer.My compliments."
+1279,2,BEST LIVE PJ SET EVER!!,"Pearl Jam is one of my favorite bands, I own all of their studio albums and believe few bands have the talents and range of this band. The problem with most of PJs ""bootlegs"" is the sound quality. This set finally delivers excellent sound and shows Pearl Jam in their world, live, where they make other current rock acts like ""nickelback"" look like children's music.This is a must buy for any Pearl Jam fan... my single complaint is thier are nor liner notes."
+1280,1,What?,"This album is some garbage and such a rip-off. How 'bout the group Blaque recorded ""Can't Get it Back"" years ago. They are okay as far as harmonization, but the vocals are weak. They do overuse beats, as someone stated earlier. I recommend not buying it at all."
+1281,2,Great to Have Some Live Performances,"More than just a collection of her previously released works, includes life performances as well. A must for any Basia fan."
+1282,1,not twin,No way this crap was twin. Would fit a king bed. Put back in package and put in Goodwill box.
+1283,2,An insightful autobiographical look,"Most of the reviews here are critical and misinformed. They appear to be written by disgruntled hisgh school students who have probably been assigned to read Lee's book as an effort to heighten their multi-cultural sensitivities. The kids miss the point. This is an excellent, sensitive novel about growing up in many worlds at once. Where ever Kai Ting is, is the wrong place, even home. His way of finding himself, finding a place, is through an unlikely venue, the local Y. There is a gritty truth thst comes off of every page here. Lee is exposing a great deal of his soul and, at the end, I felt part of his life. This was the first work of Lee's I read. My satisfaction with China Boy led me to the rest. He has much talent, a powerful voice and a sharp sense of humor... even when it hurts."
+1284,1,Nonsense,"Raunch culture nonsense. Subjectivity and emotionalism in place of logic and fact-based analysis. This is the new face of western feminism. Oh, wait, this has been the face of western feminism for the past 20 years!In some parts of the world, 12 year old girls are being brutalized by fascist theocracies and treated like chattel. But let's ignore that and listen to a bunch of entitled American women whine like pre-schoolers.Blech.Here's a description of the western feminist: a woman who demands that she be paid the same wage as a man, but expects the man to pay for dinner. ""Equality when it's convenient for me, chivalry when it's convenient for me.""A message to Valenti et. al: It's not going to be so easy to fool us anymore. Gird your loins and get ready for battle. It's going to be a good one."
+1285,2,Funny ...,"I thought this was a great movie, some really funny parts, some parts that were a little over done, but for the most part a great comedy."
+1286,1,Why only 10ft?,"The SD300 looks like a great little camera. I was thinking about upgrading/replacing my S300 (3yr old 2 Megapixel) with waterproof case (100ft), but since can't even get to 10ft it would be pretty useless for SCUBA diving."
+1287,1,Didn't last!,"Sad to say these broke within weeks of receiving them...but well after return time. Cheap...not happy, whatsoever. I'm not an overweight gal, so it wasn't my weight that broke them...they just started saying ERROR, even with new batteries. There was no explanation in the directions. Spend more money and get something of better quality."
+1288,1,Mediocre,"Too complicated to use as a tutorial, and too simple to use as a reference. This book tries to be both and does a poor job of it. Buy this book if you absolutely have to (like I did, for a class at the U of MN); otherwise I'm sure there are other books out there that can do a better job.P.S. - I found at least one typo in chapter 1. Can you find it? :-)"
+1289,1,"Can you say ""common sense""","This author was obviously out to make a quick dollar. Not much thought was put into this piece. It's unrealistic common sense on how one ""should"" act in the workplace."
+1290,1,Too many bugs!,"Okay... the first few levels were fun, especially the level with the teenaged Lara in one of her first adventures. However, ""Red Alert"" has so many bugs in it that I finally gave up playing in despair. I've never given up on a game before, but this was finally more frustrating than fun."
+1291,1,THE LONGEST MOST TIRING BOOK EVER,This is the most longest tiring book I have ever read. After one chapter I fall asleep. I DO NOT recommed this book to any one.
+1292,1,Defective product,"I selected this product because it had a CD player, tape player, radio, and was rated by Amazon reviewers as having good sound quality. After receiving it and setting it up, I turned it on. It was set at ""radio."" I looked for obvious means to turn it to CD or tape player, but found none. Then I attempted to turn the player ""off"" and found that the ""on/off"" button would not function. To turn it off, I had to unplug the player. After plugging it back in, I found that the ""on/off button"" would not work at all. Therefore, the player was completely unsuable and I returned it. The player was quite large and bulky and difficult to repack in the box. Obviously, I was very dissatisfied with this product."
+1293,2,Efficient product,I have been using this occasionally for a few months now. It works well. The range is sufficient for my house. The only problem I have is that there is more white noise than I am comfortable with.
+1294,2,A pleasure to ears and eyes,"I am really happy when i got an Opera DVD and one can note the difference between it and a Vhs. If we compare this opera with Karajan's Don Giovanni or Levines's Aida, the colors and the definition is ten times better.Levine great as always. Chernov is a great baritone, and has a perfect look for the role he is mading. Domingo and Kanawa do a very good job either. I am not very happy with Lloyd's Fiesco. I could assure that he isn't even a real bass, when he finishes his aria ""Ill laccerato spirito"" you can note that his low F (the last note of the aria) is almost mute. I dont mind when a bass baritone sings a Mozart or Rossini's bass part, but when we are talking about Verdi, you need a real bass. He is a really good actor, so that saves him a little. In overall the performance is great and the chorus is well sung too."
+1295,2,The Evolution of the North American Diesel-Electric Locomotive,"This is an extremely good resource for those interested in the development of the North American Diesel-Electric locomotive. It provides information about the early experimental and production model units used on North American railroads. Louis Marre also provides an interesting and concise discussion about the many builders and models they produced for switching, passenger, and road service.Like the earlier Contemporary Diesel Spotter's Guide, the binding is not the greatest. It is not a reference you want to thumb through too much."
+1296,1,Leaking LaCrosse Chinese boots,"The left boot had a leak right out of the box, not a big leak but enough to make my sock wet. Made in China tells the story. At one time LaCrosse boots were well made and had a long life, now I get anywhere from six months to one year use out of them."
+1297,1,Oh! Please!!,"It is beyond my ability to understand how anyone with a brain can read this book and think that one word is the truth. It is yet another attempt for these criminals to try to re-write history in their favor. Fortunately, they will not get away with it this time! America is finally on to the HillBillies!"
+1298,2,Listening Hearts: Discerning Call in Community,"Listening Hearts: Discerning Call in Community was the best book that I have ever read. With prayer and this book, I have received confirmation of a decision that I was trying to make. I believe in my heart that God actually guided me to find this book because I was not looking for it at all. I feel that I was led to read it because the contents seemed to have been written just for me. I thank God for giving me the guidance to read this book."
+1299,2,the grandeur and beauty of Argentina on a DVD...,"Seeing this Globtrekker travelogue again on TV reminded me of how well it portrays the beauty and immense scale of this amazing country. It also superbly communicates the warmth and generosity of its people. Disregard another reviewer's grousings about the economic inaccuracies (yeah, so what?--it's actually much cheaper now to visit Argentina), and just sit back and enjoy sweeping views of Iguasu Falls, the Argentine cordillera, windswept Patagonia, and the Perito Moreno glacier. Justine Shapiro has just the right balance of wonder and wimsy to pull off this travelogue. I especially like her good-humored response to a pass made at her in Buenos Aires, and her imitation of a penguin walk on the beach in Patagonia. This is a real fun video and will make you want to visit this great country."
+1300,1,"Engaging story, but bad science","Having read enthusiastic reviews of this book, I was surprised to find it ill-informed about olfaction science. I'm a biologist in a related field and I had never heard of Turin before, but after I finished ""The Emperor of Scent,"" I read Turin's scientific papers. His ideas are interesting, but he hasn't done controlled experiments to support or refute them. Unfortunately, the background information that Burr provides to support Turin's ideas is frequently inaccurate. Burr is a good writer and seems to have done some background reading, so it's all the more disappointing that he doesn't subject Turin's work to greater scrutiny. This book was a fun read, but take it with a grain of salt."
+1301,2,"A very good value for the price, less than $20","I found the swim video to be a very good value. It was less than one lesson! My daughter Emily, 3 years old loves to watch it over and over. We practice the three main lessons together in the pool. She has made great strides in less than two weeks. The video state a week, but it has taken use two weeks to get the swimming down. Ryan my 6 year old loves to watch it also, though he is already a good little swimmer. The kids love it and it helped me to cover the basics. Now my kids are on their way to being good swimers and safer this summer!"
+1302,1,I think they got lazy with this one....,"so i read INSIDE.....yeah, the other products you can buy and an index for everything shown...but still NO traslations or explinations on what were listening to!there is no ""subtitle"" choice, so if your kid says ""mommy, what is she saying?"" you'll have a blank look on your face! they sound like fun lil' rhymes in diffrent languages but something called ""Numi,Numi"" in hebrew, is not gonna tell me what its about.i kinda feel like a baby with NO clue on what i'm listening to....so unless you know all the languages listed and you know all the words (no sing-along option)...then pass on this!*and like all the other reviews, baby einstein like the ""classical"" masters and galileo are GREAT...i got this dvd because my baby is advancing, so i was surprised HOW weak it is compared to the others!"
+1303,2,Stays with you long after you finish the book,"The Time Traveler's Wife was an unexpected gem of a book--a bittersweet story of true love that literally spans time. From start to finish, The Time Traveler's Wife was so incredibly moving and well-crafted, I couldn't put it down-- which was a shame, because I finished it too soon and truly did not want to put the book away."
+1304,2,So interesting,"Mitnick writes a very interesting book.Sometimes a bit melodramatic, but an instant classic of a security title."
+1305,2,Ambience Personified,"I first heard this masterpiece in 1986 and up until then I could not find a collection of works that did not waver from the slow, pure ambient meditatative dream quality i was looking for. Most of the albums I had heard were slow up until a certain point, then they would suddenly have a loud or hectic piece that would destroy the atmosphere. This was the first piece of music that kept the dream state going through to its end. While listening to it in preparation to sleep it was the only album that would finish without waking me. This is my favourite ambient album of all time and I never tire of listening to it. When I listen to it a sense of relief flows over my mind and spirit because I feel comfortable and in tune with its superior composition. I love this album for its purity of atmosphere which can be uplifting in some parts and at others be brooding howls from the darkest corner of the earth."
+1306,2,Terrific Reading,"Makes one feel as though they were there in the submarines. The only thing I would like to see is Amazon, or somebody, convert The Silent Service from the Big Picture to dvd."
+1307,1,Dated material and bad media,"While the educative quality is good, it's totally ruined by the failure to update either the material and, particularly, failure to use decent media quality. The digital/print material is a bad copy job, the digital/audio material is sadly dated and poorly constructed, and the many of the discs don't function because of poor quality control.I'd look elsewhere for material and not waste my money here. The frustration is simply not worth it."
+1308,1,This review is a wholehearted pan,"The hero is dense enough to have a Schwarzschild radius. I'll stop writing this review in the same way I stopped reading this book, i.e. with a sigh of relief."
+1309,1,Tuner Technology: Analog,This shows up under digital ... but if you look closer it reads ... Tuner Technology: Analog
+1310,2,Traveling Boxers....,"Simply the best product that I am aware of on the market, especially if you travel...I've used this ExOfficio product exclusively since discovering them in 2005. My only negative comment is not about the boxers themselves, but that I cannot buy matching tees because at 6'7"", I need a tall size, which does not seem to be available."
+1311,2,Don't insult Jordan's writing ability with a movie idea,"I've read the Fallon series and the WOT series and couldn't even imagine them being deplored by a movie. Never in my life have I seen a movie that compared to the book. You wanna see a movie, fine, but writing as complicated and intertwined as Jordan's couldn't be put into a movie of any length."
+1312,2,Wonderful Casts!,"I think the trio consists of Richard Burton and Julie Andrews, Robert Goulet will be never surpassed in the future. And the movie hadn't sucessed enough.If you want to hear the ""Real"" Camelot, you buy it. This album said to have been one of favorite album of President Kennedy."
+1313,1,What have they tried to the original movie Cinderella??,"HiI wanted to add my two cents, here. I saw this movie when it first came on tv in the mid 90's. I don't remember it that well, but remember being stunned and horrified of such a multi-cultural cast. I agree with the reviewer who pointed out how odd it was and awkward it would have been to try to explain to your kids why the king is asian and his parents are both different races. I hadn't thought about that. And Brandy as Cinderella?? Please. I did like some of Whitney's singing, but competely disagreed with all the different races in the movie.. and a BLACK step-sister?? Geez. And no, i am not racist. I just thought it was very odd and very wrong to have different races making up families in the movie. TOO PC for me. YOu just can't improve on the original classic."
+1314,1,This book is USELESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!,"Don't invest in this book, even if it is considered required reading for your course(s), you will be much better off... trust me. THis book is supposedly cutting edge in terms of epidemiological methods (whatever that means). But, the authors have written this book in a way that is confusing, misleading, and uninterpretable. The chapters written by Rothman and/or Greenland seem to purposely confuse the reader with unnecessary teminology and excessive use of equations. Moreover, this book could not be more poorly organized. Don't waste your time or money. I relied on ""Epidemiology in Medicine"" by Hennekens (which is not great, but good enough) and web-based resources to get through my doctoral program in Epidemiology. My classmates hated Rothman too."
+1315,2,Good if fits your learning style,"Very thorough in covering the field. This second edition is even better than the first one. Chapters are short and focused. Data was updated to the date of publication. However, the format is plain and a little boring to me. I can read through a chapter in short time but retain not much information besides what I already know. I think it is the dry format design that is not exciting. It is a condensed volume with a lot of good information with no illustration. It should be good for those who prefer this style of reading. It is 6 year old so needs some update, particularly in neuroscience and psychopharmacology."
+1316,1,Buyer Beware,"The two model numbers listed are NOT the same size. WB39X10003 is 12 1/2 inches in diameter and WB49X10002 is 13 1/2 inches in diameter. One of the sellers claims that GE has discontinued WB49X10002, but I found that you can still get it if you search the internet. Regardless, the product page should explicitly point out that if you are looking to replace your 13 1/2 inch plate and you order this product, you will receive a 12 1/2 plate."
+1317,2,planet earth,i received my set of dvds in perfect condition and in a timely matter. i recomend using amazon for any future purchases.
+1318,2,Not bad for the price!,"I got this item for a Trade Show Booth I was doing. The little machine ran all day long and did not need a battery change. It used up alot of bubble solution! kids loved it and we did clean it really good. But have not used it since! For the price and if you are careful, I think it is a fun little item!"
+1319,1,Not sure I'd recommend,"This is my first experience with Tai Chi, but this video is very hard to follow. Not sure it's the best approach to learning Tai Chi."
+1320,1,I need to return this book for another copy!,"January 11, 2007Greetings!I didn't know how to handle this. The copy of the book that you sent does not have all of the pages and duplicates other pages! Specifically, pages 1-96 are OK. Then, pages 97-160 are missing; pages 224 to the end are missing; and pages 161-224 are duplicated. This is the way it left the publishers bindery. Please contact me ASAP and advise how we can resolve this problem. I need a new copy of this book and you'll want to see this messed-up edition. THANKS! John M. Vente (630) 968-3339"
+1321,2,"Yes, she's a bit much, but the woman can cook","Rachael Ray can be painfully perky at times and I wonder at her inner life, but the woman sure can cook. And unlike other glamorous FoodTV babes who make it look easy but produce quite challenging recipes with hard-to-find/expensive ingredients, Ray's dishes are cheap, easy and good. Friends still ask about her cream-cheese potato recipe that I made for Thanksgiving--three years ago!"
+1322,1,Sloppy Sloppy Sloppy,"I bought this book because I thought that after seeing the author interviewed in NBC's Today Show by Katie Couric, its got to be good. The author's real life stories of clients are amusing but the entire book is littered with grammatical errors and words missing in mid-sentence. This book was a let down and the publisher should be ashamed for not proofreading this book. I wish I could get my money back. Anyone as well educated as Trippon should be embarrased to have this on the street - credibility shot. Don't waste your money."
+1323,1,Boring and Redundant,"Does the apple fall far from the tree? In this case - miles away. This book is full of boring and redundant metaphors and cliches. It reads like a work from a grade school creative writing class in bad need of editing. I am surprised the publisher let so much obvious inexperience slip through. Was the editor sleeping through the book as I did most of the time? Nothing new under the sun in reference to the plot or characters. It's all been done and said before by many authors, including her father, whom I'd read since ""A Stone for Danny Fisher"" and despite the the lack of popularity with the critics, he managed to tell a riveting story. This book comes no where close to doing that. If I could, I would have rated it 1/2 a star just because it managed to get published, for it lacks any literary merit."
+1324,1,This book should be left in the last century!,"Please save your money! Of course, if one wants to stop craving alcohol (metabolized as sugar) one needs to go on a high protien, low carbohydrate diet. A diet like Sugar Busters is what is proposed. And of course, everyone can benefit from vitamins - so buy some and take them! The thing I found offensive about this book was that the author thinks that everyone who has a drinking problem is ""alcoholic"" (an antiquated term!) and that he or she can be defined as one of three or four different ""kinds"" of alcoholic. What a bunch of bunk! Instead of this book buy: Sober for Good and Sugar Busters."
+1325,2,Wonderful French Press.,"Much better than I expected. Someone said the spout was to narrow/small to pour, I've had no issues with it.Beautiful finish."
+1326,1,This Game is Dangerous,"There's been a lot of talk lately about how violent video games cause violent behavior, but acctually I think it's just the opposite. Shrek is almost ridiculously Non violent. You can punck and kick until you're green in the face, but everything gets back up. Normally, when you play blood bath games like Halo or Max Payne you come away from it feeling relaxed and calm, agressions out. However, play Shrek for a half hour you're going to want to take out a Glock and mow down a line of people at a post office. So parents don't buy your kids this game, buy them Max Payne or Blood wake, now that's therapy.Oh yeah, and P.S., I don't kbnow what game the people who wrote the product description played, but Shrek only has 8 levels and there are no between level cut scenes."
+1327,2,oh what a job,Strange job for bukowski. An outsider as a dedective. n other books he writes his own story as an outsider. But this time he is a dedective . HAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!!!!!
+1328,1,Dont Buy!,"It is hard to believe that you can only get Kindergarten Cop in full screen, denying us movie fans the pleasure of watching the film as it was intended by the director, in the original format. What can Universal Pictures be thinking? Such a travesty. Don't buy. Boycott until they release this movie in widescreen."
+1329,2,5 stars and here's why:,"I gave this book 5 stars, because it made me cry. I think thisis only the 2nd romance I've read that made me cry. The part inthe book I am referring to is any part where Richard & Misty areinvolved. The Katharina & Kane story was beautiful, but I was alsocaptivated by Richard & Misty and John & Sidney. I wish there hadbeen more of John & Sidney. Now, I do remember at least 2 inconsistencies in the book, one where it was said that John was a cousin, then later in the book, it was said that he was their uncle, and a scene where Richard aids Misty in finding the castle,in the evening, but when she enters the library where Katharina &Kane are, it is suddenly the afternoon of the next day. Go figure. But I won't let these boo-boo's effect how I feel aboutthe book. Definitely 5 stars all the way."
+1330,1,"Good supplemental reading, but rely on the PMBOK!","This book provided some good information and presented some of the stodgy content of the PMBOK in a matter-of-fact approach. I would not rely on this book, however, as it delves into a lot of material not covered on the exam. If you get caught up in the complex formulas in the CAPM guide, you are likely to miss the key 4 or 5 formulas that the CAPM exam actually covers. I passed the exam, although I relied principally on the PMBOK. For an entry-level exam such as the CAPM, the PMBOK is really all you need. For those with little to no PM experience, a couple of supplemental readings such as this one may be helpful. Good luck!"
+1331,1,Only used 3 times and it stopped working,"Very Frustrating machine. It just stopped pumping water. I found an article on line that said it may have blown a fuse (nothing about the fuse in the manual) Sure enough the fuse was blown (I had to remove the whole cover, 7 screws and cut a water proof seal off the fuse to remove it and replace it. No simple matter getting it all back together.) After I replaced the fuse there was a few clicking noises but it still will not pump any water (let alone heat any water). Even the short time it did work if the battery was low you were out of luck. You can not run it off the charging cords. I sure isn't reliable. Very disappointing."
+1332,1,Sometimes it's better to forget,"This book mainly collects a number of Crowley's letters written to Kenneth Grant from the end of 1944 till spring 1946 Common Era. Grant adds a few explanatory remarks here and there. The book is large (approximately A4), but only some 70 pages thick, and space isn't used very economically. It definitely isn't worth the price. There are a few interesting thought and a few interesting pictures, but all in all it doesn't deliver what is promised. It only gives a sketchy impression of what went on between Crowley and Grant, who was 20 years old in 1944.The letters are mostly demands from Crowley, e.g. telling Grant to get him whiskey or tobacco, which were scarce due to the war. Grant is promised a position in the British OTO if he does his chores, but he doesn't obey the Master. It's all too trivial to be of interest to anyone but the Crowley fetishist."
+1333,2,What a fantastic collection!,"This CD made a great gift for my Dad's birthday. Received it super fast, and just in time!"
+1334,1,"Poor quality, many defects","Go buy some fake pearls at the local kids jewelry place. They will look every bit as good as these. VERY disappointed. I bought these for an additional birthday present for my wife and they have become the third thing I have returned to Amazon (3+ years). Horrendous quality, defects clearly visible all over the pearls, and not round either. If these are Akoya, then Akoya is selling junk these days! STAY AWAY!"
+1335,1,"Well written and convincing, but not very feasible.","I have seen this diet work well for a friend of mine. In fact, I lost 4 pounds the first week using her plan. However, I found the plan almost impossible to follow when traveling. Imagine never being able to eat a sandwich with meat! I found that I had to cook almost every meal. I love to cook, but that was too much. I think I'll stick with Weight Watchers."
+1336,2,Wish I'd bought this years ago,"This is an awesome charger. The fact that I can see the progress of each individual battery during it's charging cycle is helpful. I previously was using either a Panasonic or Eveready quickie charger, but both required that pairs of batteries were inserted, and the batteries came out of the charger so hot, I was concerned about the damage I was doing to the cells charging them so quickly. The default setting of this charger is 200mah, so the batteries charge at a reasonable rate and finish completely cool. Heat = reduced lifespan in rechargeables. I'd buy another one of these in an instant, given all the functions (refresh does take a loooonng time, so plan for it) and the included batteries and adapters."
+1337,2,My family loves this,me and my family want this movie so much we look for it every year but can never find it. We love this movie.
+1338,2,Simply Amazing,"My first BT cd and I couldn't stop listening to it! Buy it..you won't regret it. MUST HAVE MORE.... God, and to think I missed them at House of Blues ARGH!"
+1339,2,My German Shepherd loves these.,My German Shepherd loves these balls. We have purchased these for years and has never popped one even though he tests them constantly in his jaw. He usually loses them in the yard and even if they are uncovered months later they are dirty but still durable. I recommend this product for any one with a large dog who loves to play catch and fetch.
+1340,2,Great Cd!!,I was really suprised when I listend to the whole thing. I didn't realize that they were this good. : )
+1341,2,Numbers 1 2 3,I like the size and quality of the book and sincerely hope my son and his wife will use it to help prepare my grandson for kindergarten.
+1342,2,I missed this little show!,"I remember when Degrassi High and Degrassi Jr. High aired in the U.S and I really enjoyed it. I came on in my region in the late 1980's when I was in JHS. My mother did not care for it because she felt the kids were too fast acting. But she obviously did not understand what it was like to be a teen in the 1980s. That little show did a nice job of portraying teens realisticly (spelling?) and it had some nice storylines. I may be biased since I enjoy ""soaps"" but this show was so much better than 90210,Saved By the Bell and Degrassi probably had half the budget. The kids looked like kids from my neighborhood and it did a nice job of being diverse without feeling contrived. I plan to get the DVD edition if it is available."
+1343,1,Barfly Unplayable,"The DVD did not play on any of my DVD/BluRay equipment because they could not read the PAL format. This is a first for any Amazon product I have previously purchased. I rated this purchase one star because the DVD did arrive on schedule, though it was unplayable."
+1344,1,A disappointment,"My first exposure to grammatrain was their second album, Flying, which I consider to be a masterpiece for its creativity and unbelievable energy. This first album is nowhere near as good. I found it to be monotonous, although it contains a lot of the same themes as Flying, the music is a disappointment."
+1345,1,Great Quality... For a While,"I bought this controller a while ago when I bought Halo 2 for the PC. It worked great.After that game was over and done with it sat unused until I decided to buy Cabela's Dangerous Hunts for the PC. It worked great until a few weeks ago. The left analog stick began to ""stick"" in certain positions. Now, it just refuses to work.This is great for your occasional PC gamer, but if you intend to use it for long periods of time then I'd suggest buying something else."
+1346,2,Great camera!,"This is the best camera I have ever bought. The quality of the shot is great. It come with three different picture functions. This little thing can do wonders, plus is not bulky, you can put this camera in your pockets or carried in the case it comes with it. This is smaller than carring a cell phone cliped on your belt. I highly recommend this amazing camera."
+1347,2,Great read,A great insight to the man and the history of the club...all in all a great read! Couldn't put it down.
+1348,1,This book is not worth the one star I am required to give it,"HORRIBLE! That about sums up this book. Inaccurate, badly researched, poorly written, etc etc.If your looking for some cheap comic relief then this is the book. Although I would get it from a library... it's not funny enough to warrent spending real money on ;)"
+1349,1,bread and tulips,The film is supposed to have subtitles. Well there are a few so far spaced out that it is ridiculous and when they do appear they often do not make sense. Very disapointed as we were not able to follow the film very well at all.
+1350,2,Best pop-up book ever!,"My 2-1/2 yr old son instantly fell in love with this book, followed shortly thereafter by me and the rest of the family. This is a great book to explore as you can go in and around the buildings, through the doorways, over the bridges and such. Plus, it can be read front-ways and/or back-ways, as there is printing on both sides of the page, giving a little reward for exploring the pages. The story is very cute also and the expressions of the characters are funny and endearing. The pop-ups are quite extravagant, relatively speaking, for a children's book, but not so much as to be overwhelming, and are also quite sturdy. There are also some cool little flaps which display action sequences. There is a train engine that really moves down the track! Richard Scarry rules!!!"
+1351,2,Spice Girls In America Was An Awesome Documentary!,"The Spice Girls new video is Girl Power packed, funny and entertaining all at the same time. It's like Spice World, but not scripted! This movie rocks!"
+1352,1,What happened to the bass?,"I have gone to see the Moody's three times in the last ten years, the first time with the full blown orchestra ala Red Rocks. I've always enjoyed their music and was excited to see the concert come out on CD. Then I listened to the CD and scratched my head, granted they never were a ""heavy"" group but John Lodge's bass lines were a foundation for their songs and it is missing in action. I tried cranking up the bass control but there's nothing there! What a disappointment! Did I just get a bad copy or is everybody else reviewing this album listening on a 2 inch speaker. I don't listen to it anymore because I find such pansy sonic quality irritating. Tiny Tim on the mixing board!"
+1353,1,More Mindlessness from Fodor,"Fodor once again proves that he has no new ideas and should retire. Better minds, scientific minds, will succeed where Fodor always fails. The most non-cognitive of nonsense."
+1354,1,REALLY Disappointed!,"With all the awards for this documentary video, I was expecting something great! It wasn't... it was awful!!! Scenes looked Photoshopped and overall the piece was boring - and I love nature. Save your money; don't purchase."
+1355,2,Free Play Review,"One of the best books I've read on the value of play, both for artists and for non-artists as well. The writing is smooth flowing and easy to not only understand but to feel as well. Creates an easy to follow road map to that place within where play is an integral part of who we are."
+1356,2,"Very cheap, very newborn.",This doll was only $3... for that much money you can not expect any better. I would say the doll is worth that price easily or more. It's a small doll (which is what we were after for our 2 year old. It does look like a wrinkly little newborn... alien square head and all haha! It would be nice if you could find an outfit or two for a doll this size for an older child. That is my only real complaint.
+1357,1,I was tricked!,"I purchased this album with great anticipation (since it was rated 5 stars by 70+ customers...) but this album was a HUGE disappointment. Besides ""The People"" this album has nothing. (I wouldn't recommend it)-Disappointed Common Fan"
+1358,1,No support or warranty from manufacturer,"I thought this was a good quality product, seeing as how it cost so much, but it broke after my daughter used it for a month, after which time it was too late to return. The manufacturer will only repair or replace it if it is sold through a professional salon. So, even though you buy it through Amazon, a respectable place to buy things, you won't get any support for it after 30 days. You won't find this out until you read the pamphlet that comes with the iron."
+1359,1,Too sweet.,Other artificial sweetners are cheaper and work just the same. This is actually too sweet. I only use a half packet in coffee and that's almost too much.
+1360,1,Too dark,"I was looking for the classic Tiffany blue color, when I got it, it was way darker than what it looked like on the internet. Its not a horrible nail polish but it wasn't what I wanted."
+1361,2,works,You have to apply to goggles about every 15 times or so you use them but it does take away the fog from the inside of the goggles.
+1362,2,The little grill that could,"Amazing! This grill does a great job, even for steaks. The small green propane canisters (2lbs total weight, 1 lb of propane) last much longer than I expected. I was able to cook several meals on a single small tank. One note: it is a bit tricky to achieve a very low simmer-level flame on the burner side. Also, I went ahead and used the grill side sometimes for a second pot (making sure the grill side was clean), although the instructions discourage you from doing this. Not clear why, it works great. I plan to ask Coleman customer service why they recommend against this."
+1363,1,An Irish Folktale that should not have been retold!,"I read this book before reading it to my little one and I am glad I did. Not only does it not have a positive message, it is a story of rewarded laziness and greed. And the message is not subtle either, it is all out there in the first line ..""Jamie O'Rourke was the laziest man in all of Ireland."" -- and he was still so at the end of the book -- and proud of it! The only decent aspect of the book are the illustrations which are very nice, but alas not enough to risk sending a totally wrong message to our children."
+1364,2,Wonderful Biography on Child,This is the book to have when you need quick information on Lydia Maria Francis Child. Excellent for young readers as well.
+1365,2,"Not bad, but could use a better squeaker",My dog loses interest in it fairly quickly because it's hard to make squeak. But it is durable- he tries to tear it apart and hasn't yet.
+1366,1,Poorly made toy,The batteries would not stay in. It was too hard for my five year old to play. It may be better for an older child.
+1367,1,Don't buy this,"Don't get carried away by the sleek design. It worked fine for a week and then the wireless component stopped working. 2-3 times a week, the router needs to be restarted. And, after 6 months, it was permanently dead. Then, finally had to replace this router. Not sure, how long this new piece would survive. Absolutely, no - no."
+1368,2,Second time around,"This is the second pair I have owned. The sound is quite good for the money.They stay in my ears no matter how active I am.The reason I had to purchase another pair is that the case that they come pinched the wire and caused them not to work.I am going to purchase the same pair without the ""hooks"" over the ears. Although they are perfectly comfortable they are inconvenient to stow because the hooks catch everything and they still would stay in your ears when not exercising."
+1369,2,Tom Tran is the missing piece to an epic war story!,"Tom Tran's roll as the village boy sets the standard for movies such as Platoon and Full Metal Jacket. I can only ask: Where were the Academy Award nominations? Good luck Tom, and see you at the movies!"
+1370,1,Not Truly Christian,I took reservation right away when Muller started quoting Ghandi with Christ. Great topic and I'm sure the principles are sound but there is no true rest with Christ and mixture.
+1371,1,Don't give in to your curiousity.,"I love the band Further - which is the band that Darren and Brent Rademaker formed after Shadowland. So I ordered a used copy of this cd because I was curious about what they had done previously. It's hard for me to write a description of what this sounds like, but I will say this - this cd - at times - sounds like a slightly edgier Nelson. So, not good. Just trying to help you curious Further fans. Don't do it."
+1372,2,Walk Away the Pounds,As with all of Leslie's videos...she talks a bunch. I do however enjoy her workouts and feel that you can easily increase the intensity by doing each move with ankle and wrist weights or decrease the intensity by doing each move slower. All of her DVD's are similar because the moves don't change just the people in the recording and the placement of each move.It is a good alternative to walking outside. Her series have helped me with my weight loss goals and weight management. I lost 13 pounds in 4 months doing her workouts...that includes the times where I did not eat the way I should. The one thing I love about her workouts is how inspiring and encouraging she is¡Kwhich is why I can get over how much she talks :)
+1373,1,"If you like ""butt-music""...go ahead !!!","I'm brazilian and I would like to say that this is the kind of music do not represent the quality of brazilian music. Unfortunalety, it's sucess here and eventualy around the world is due to two or three ""musics""(?) and two girl swinging their hips in summary clothes. Please, it's extremely disgusting and bad taste music and have no lyrics... But, if you like this, try go to XXX dancing. Because, there, the women are naked...and dance so better !!!"
+1374,2,the cd is awesome,"ja is the best rapper out now. he reminds me of tupac shakur, R.I.P. this is the best full cd i have heard since all eyez on me."
+1375,1,Disappointment,"What a disappointment. We ordered the Traveldock 900 for Christmas for our son's Creative Zen M mp3 player. There are not a lot of these devices on the market for Creative so we were happy to see this one. Unfortunately, when you put the MP3 player on the base it is unstable and actually partially blocks one of the speakers. The sound definitely does not ""fill a room."" Kudo's to Amazon for promptly refunding our money."
+1376,1,Don't bother reading this one,This book was probably the most boring I have read. I truly tried to get through it but I finally gave up during the second part. The author rambles on and on while not revealing anything of substance. It is an extremely slow read. Do not buy it for you'll waste your money. BORING !!!!
+1377,2,Alters your view of life,"I listen to a lot of tapes. When I first got this tape series, I lent it, unlistened to, to a co-worker. She came back the next morning, saying ""Wow! Are all the tapes you listen to like that?"" Unfortunately, they don't. This tape series gives you a different, exhilarating, fascinating look at yourself, and business in general. In it, marketing expert Jay Abraham helps you multiply your best efforts, through identifying and concentrating the skills you have to offer. It's rare that I find a program that has generated the amount of excitement that this program does, each time I listen to it."
+1378,1,"worked ok, for 2 months","This humidifierSPT SU-2081B Digital Ultrasonic Humidifier with Hygrostat Sensor, Blueis much smaller than I expected, but it worked OK, after I figured out how to program it since the directions don't match at all. The hygrostat was a waste because it ran the same regardless of the humidity level. However, two months after purchase it just stopped working completely, both the light and the fan stopped, despite the fact that I only used distilled water in it and followed all directions for care. Since it's more than 30 days old, I can't get a refund so I'm not at all impressed. I'll send it back to see if I can get at least a partial refund, but I don't think this was worth the expense. The last $25.00 one I bought at Walmart lasted 2 years and worked just as well."
+1379,1,Take this CD; PLEASE,"This is perhaps one of the worst CD's I have ever purchased. To say I was disappointed wouldn't sum it up. Skip Battin's singing sounds cartoonish. The melodies would fit in better, in a 1920 vaudeville show. How is this a cult classic? And the subject matter? The St. Louis Browns? Yeah, I already knew they hired a midget to play baseball (Eddie Gaedel). I wish this rating system had a zero- that's what this rates.Now I understand why, it was said, he destroyed the Byrds with his goofy out-of-place songs."
+1380,1,Broken multiple times,"I am sure that this scale would work great had it been delivered intact. I returned it once to get a new one and the second one was broken even worse.If you need a scale quickly, I would not trust Amazon to deliver a working one."
+1381,2,This is a must for a Tom and Jerry fan,I gave it 4/5 stars because I only enjoy half the episodes. This was a great purchase afterall. I
+1382,2,Love it!,"This movie is amazing! Sooo funny! I can watch it over and over! Beware - some of your friends may think you're nuts. Of course, I have friends who think the Monty Python's Holy Grail is nuts."
+1383,1,What a waste of money,"I got the box today, and yes I do understand that you don't get a real flower in the box, but I expected at least a flower that looks at least a little bit like the flower on the picture. My flower is absolutely not anything like it. Not even remotely. Really sad that I spend money on this.If you want Breaking Dawn, just buy the regular dvd/blu ray or the other special edition. Stay far away from this one!"
+1384,2,A good solid supply chain basics book,"We use this book for supply chain training to new entrants at our firm. It is quite a good supply chain basics book - covering the topic in all its breadth. the coverage is perhaps a slightly less strategic and more technical than our needs - but that is understandable given the background of one of the authors. However, to be fair, it is the best book that we have found on supply chain management to get the people up to speed on the basics."
+1385,2,simply the best!,"This album by Jackie Davis was originally issued by Capitol Records; it was then called ""Jumpin"" Jackie"". My biased opinion of this record is based on many hours of listening to it, and from the fact that Jackie Davis was my organ teacher back in the 1960's!Jackie had a style which surpasses everything that went before him, in rhythm, chordal harmonies, and dynamics. He makes the Hammond Organ lie down and beg him to play it! Listen to these tracks and learn what an incredible instrument the Hammond Organ was and is....especially in the hands of the Master himself. Two hands, string-bass pedal lines, and that amazing rhythmic block-chord style all add up to Master Jackie Davis jumpin' just for you..... jump on and swing!Mike Reed"
+1386,2,A Must Have!,"When my son turned 2, he became very interested in trains, and was given a hand me down Thomas the Train set, and loved it. It was missing a lot of pieces, so we decided to get him a new one as a birthday present. I looked at some of the other train sets that had more pieces, but the quality wasn't very good. I ultimately decided to order this set, and couldn't be happier. The quality of this set is amazing, the pieces are very durable and well made. The set alone makes a nice starter track for my two year old son, and it can be combined with other tracks. Amazon has the best price, and I couldn't be happier!"
+1387,2,A romantic thriller with a surprising twist,"Rebecca was the first Hollywood film that Alfred Hitchcock directed. The casting and acting are supberb. A handsome widower,(Laurence Olivier) his shy, young bride (Joan Fontaine) and the resident evil housekeeper (Judith Anderson) all living together in the magnificant estate called Manderley. How could his new bride ever hope to compete with his beautiful dead wife? ""Everyone adored Rebecca"". Fontaine won a Best Actress Oscar for her work and rightly so. It is so fasinating to me that she doesn't even have a name in this Best Picture Oscar winner of 1940. You will not see the twist coming until it hits you right between the eyes and from then on the turns take huge detours. If you love a good mystery and the old black and white movies of the 40's, then see this movie. It will find a permanent place in your favorite movies list."
+1388,1,frustrated w/ Wagner,"12 years ago, a neighbor purchased a Wagner Power Paint Sprayer - and returned it in the same day, as it just did not work for more then one or two passes. We recently purchased one, figuring with the passing of time that the company would have made improvements to their product - they have not. At first we were excited by the speed and ease in which we were able to get things painted... that lasted about five minutes. The unit repeatedly seizes up - and no amount of thinning the paint helps. We've cleaned it, oiled it, done everything anyone has suggested for trouble shooting. This is more frustration then it is worth. Very disappointing, because if the company would care to improve the product so that it actually worked - this would be a very handy tool to have and SHOULD make life much easier. But, we'll be returning ours today after another failed attempt to get some painting done. Two thumbs down, Wagner!!!!"
+1389,1,disappointment,"Jules Destrooper, Cookie Thins Almond 100G, 3.5-OunceThis proved to be an all time ripoff. I was expecting a broken case of cookies. I received 1 box of cookies worth $3 - paid $9.95 for the cookies, plus $6.30 for shipping. $16.25 for a $3 value. Never again will I shop Amazon. Richard Rossi"
+1390,2,"the second ""alien"" rip-off from corman and the best","this is one of those movies that you love or hate,and i love it.a great drive-in space movie about a soldier of forturne sent to a reasearch planet to help them fught an experiment that has taken on a life of it's own. this is really a lot of fun and if your into the mood of the movie you will find a lot to like in this little movie."
+1391,2,Down-to-earth advice for real estate beginners,"Down-to-earth advice for real estate beginners. The downside is that in some parts of the books, it centers on US real estate: taxes, legislation,...otherwise, a very enjoyable and applicable reading"
+1392,2,My Grandsons loved it.,"I bought this for my twin grandsons. We have a small copy of ""the word book"" which they want me to read every night at bedtime. This larger book is wonderful. I am sure we will enjoy it for many hours."
+1393,1,An utter disappointment,"Steven's insistence on injecting political commentary in every nook and cranny of his book completely undermines its value as a technical resource. This book was especially dissappointing because I consider Steven's first book on pl/sql (Oracle PL/SQL Programming) to be the finest technical book I have ever read. Steven, if you want to write a book that expresses your political views, then write a book called ""Steven Feuerstein's Views on Politics"". That way people who want to buy a book on pl/sql won't have to wade through pages of your paranoid rantings."
+1394,1,"Useful information, but not what I was looking for","This book is about working as related to the field of information science. It talks about getting your first job, dealing with users, handling difficult situations at work, finding new employment, and possible entrepreneurship ventures. However, this book does not explain different methodologies, techniques to become a better IS professional, common jargon in the industry or insight from experienced professionals. So...although this book gave me very little what I did want to know, perhaps I should have read the summary a little more. The reading is interesting and is written so that you can refer back to it as a reference, but most of the information can be better found through well known books like What Color Is Your Parachute or other non I.S. specialized books."
+1395,1,"Pass: Novelty item, not real usable","Though very well built, and fun to hold, it's not usable if you're already good at first-person shooters using a mouse -well, not without some serious retraining of your hand and wrist. Especially games heavy on right-click, like Unreal Tournament. It's basically a mouse, only bulkier and less comfortable for extended play."
+1396,2,Suitable for kids at age 5-7 years old,This Book is suitable for Christmas. It explains step-by-step project and kids will love it. It's not too difficult to make it. Kids at age 5-7 years old will love it.
+1397,1,Junk,I bought a v5 of this and it is terrible. It stops working a lot for no reason.Spend the extra $20 and get the WRT54GL. That model runs on linux and has more memory. You can also flash and put DD-WRT on it.
+1398,2,A really fun Spanish flick!,"I just happened upon this movie at the library and decided to give it a shot not knowing what to expect beforehand. Within the first 20 minutes I was hooked. We go from scam to scam, watching two conmen (the younger of which is the spitting image of Dave Matthews) pull off small jobs. It's later that we watch them attempt something really ambitious -- a ""once in a lifetime job.""The plot is great, the Spanish is also really easy to pick up since the actors speaker exceptionally clearly. That Argentinian ""jsho"" for ""yo"" is really audible :)The movie is an all around great film for most everyone. Despite the R rating, there's no violence other than a few punches to the stomach and the occassional bad language."
+1399,2,Exactly what I'd hoped for.,"Just bought a new desk and wanted to protect it before I scratched it up like I seem to do with everything I own. This is a great desk pad. Doesn't reflect light, stays put, and is the perfect size. I have my 23"" all in one pc, keyboard, and mouse all resting on it with some room to spare to give you an idea. Great slightly cushioned surface area for writing, using the mouse, etc.... Couldn't be happier."
+1400,1,After 3 weeks I ended up returning mine,"I used this lens for 3 weeks and took over a hundred photos in various shutter speed/aperture combinations; all of them turned out so-so to no good. The center sharpness is ok, but the sharpness and distortion of the image becomes unacceptable, starting about half-way to the image edge.I don't believe I received a bad copy of this lens as a previous reviewer had as I didn't find one side of the image to be better or worse than the other and the autofocus seemed to be on target.When purchasing a wide angle lens, for the most part, it's to capture more of a given scene. This additional part of the scene is of course found around the edges of the frame. Therefore, I sent this lens back and am in search of a better one.Note, the build quality seemed solid and the autofocus was snappy. If only the overall sharpness were better I would have kept it."
+1401,2,Great Memories,"I'm so glad that Amazon had this available. My husband loves this movie, so I bought it for his birthday. It was in great shape, and it's a good show. Thanks again!"
+1402,1,Symanted has the WORST IN SERVICE OUT THERE!!!!,I was not able to boot my G4 Laptop from my Norton System Works 3.0. According to the company website I had to get a new disk. I called for the first time this past Wednesday. After better than 30 minutes on hold I finally got a customer service person who told me I needed permission from TECH SUPPORT and that they were closing early sorry. On Thursday I called Tech Support and after 3 rude Tech People finally someone gave me an order number to give to the Customer Service people. Tech doesn't accept orders. It is now Friday and I have yet to get a Customer Service person on again.There is no prompt for people who need a disk shipped. There isnt a Mac area promt so I have to go through the General Help menu. NO ONE COMES TO THE PHONE! I pity those that have to deal with this company.They should turn their anti-virus scan on themselves and eliminate the management structure of this company.
+1403,1,Fail,"How difficult can it be to make a plastic storage clipboard? Apparently pretty hard. The main folder meant to hold standard letter size paper pushes the paper out into the plastic clasp, crushing it when closed. The same folder also makes it more challenging to get the clipboard to close for carrying correctly. I like the compartments in the bottom, but that main folder is a deal-breaker. I paid far too much money for something that can't even perform a simple job."
+1404,1,WHAT A WASTE OF TIME!!!!!,"A few months after we bought it it kept getting the ""paper jam"" error. Hp sent another refurbished printer. With a 90 day warranty. THe printer stopped working a few days after the warranty ran out. It wouldn't pull paper in at all. DON'T BUY IT, HORRIBLE QUALITY!!!!!"
+1405,1,Boring book,I was hoping for something classic and sensual. It was so uninteresting and a pain to get through. It dragged on. Buy something else!
+1406,2,Worth the Read,"This book is definately worth a read. It is entertaining, witty, and romantic. Unfortunately, it is also, at times, unrealistic, trite and silly. Despite the negatives, I could not put it down...I needed to know how it ended. The author did rush the ending and wrapped it up so quickly I felt that she she had simply reached her page limit."
+1407,2,the best audio you can get,"You want to become a better person, keep or make friends this is for you!"
+1408,1,Don't see if you haven't read the book,"The graphics are wonderful but the screen writer should be drawn and quartered. If you haven't read the book, or even read it recently there is no way to follow the story. I'm extremely disappointed in the movie but it did make me go back and read the book again after quite a few years. Again, the graphics are amazing and that is why I will watch it once more but from there it may go on the shelf to gather ""DUST""."
+1409,1,"Dull, Dark, and Dank","The Book is definitely better than the movie. The motion picture is a ponderous, sometimes goofy, piece of garbage that tends to trivialize the Biblical story. For example, King Nimrod's eye liner is really too much. The lighting is very uneven. The picture practically goes black in spots. Save your money and read the Bible instead. You will get more out of it."
+1410,2,Expand Your Common Sense,"After I saw the video to Come Close I ran out and bought the CD, popped it in my changer and haven't stopped listening to it since. Common's eclectic collage of 70's funk, soul, rock, jazz swing and hip hop is brillant. Truely a refreshing change in an industry dominated by bling-bling, booty shakin' women, and mind numbingly vapid lyrics. For those of you who want to be enlightened on love, human issues and music experimentation use your ""common sense"" and BUY THIS CD! Peace."
+1411,1,COULD HAVE BEEN BETTER...,"THIS FILM COULD HAVE BEEN BETTER, THERE ARE VERY FEW THINGS GOOD ABOUT THIS FILM, THE CAST FOR INSTENSE... I THOUGHT JOHN TRAVOLTA DID MARVOLOUS AS THE STAR AND THE VILLIAN, HIS SINISTER PRESENCE DOES QUITE WELL ALTHOUGH COULD HAVE BEEN EXPANDED BETTER, I LOVE BARRY PEPPER, HE IS AN ACTOR TO LOOK OUT FOR IN THE FUTURE, I LOVED HIM IN 61, AND IN THE RECENT 25TH HOUR. FOREST WHITIKER WAS GOOD AS THE PUSHED AROUND HENCHMAN, BELEIVE IT OR NOT THIS WAS THE FIRST FILM I SAW HIM IN... SAD HUH...ESPECIALLY FOR SUCH A GREAT ACTOR OF THE CRYING GAME AND THE RECENT PHONE BOOTH.BUT OVERALL... COULD HAVE BEEN THE NEXT STAR WARS... IF THEY TRIED HARDER... AND MADE IT LESS GRIM."
+1412,1,Fluffy,"On the plus side, this book was cheap and a quick read. However, I found very little tangible, useful information in it. Seemed to be mostly common sense stuff."
+1413,2,A true treasure with a colorful look,"Not only is this bear huggable, kissable and pretty; it is also a true treasure. Unique in its own way, with a different array of colors for each individual bear. Great for kids who are allergic to loose fur found on most plush toys. This bear has a material so soft, so smooth and has a great clean feeling. It is also a true collectible."
+1414,1,Ponderosa,"I received 2 tents, all shipped individually, which was rediculous. Both tents flys leak at the seams. I called the mfg. They suggest I go buy some seam sealer and put on. New tents should not leak at the seams or anyplace else"
+1415,1,"Dull, boring and disappointing concert","I consider myself highly appreciative of Madonna -- her singing, dancing, acting, her intelligence and innovation, etc. But this production featured only occasional memorable performances. Madonna does not look good in short, blond hair -- but she looks much worse doing performances in men's clothes, chiffon wigs and top hats! The choreography was not very special. The rendition of ""Like a Virgin"" was completely innovative -- and completely throw-away. As another reviewer stated, much of this video needed the fast-forward button. I cannot understand why so many people liked this production. I not only will never watch it a second time, I won't even keep it in my collection. Yes, ""Truth or Dare"" is MUCH better!"
+1416,2,erp,"well i have liked blink 182 since cheshire cat came out, so that is where i started. anyways, everyone says they have changed their style alot and soldout. not really. they have always been poppunk, it is almost impossible to be a true punk now. when it was actually punk, like the 60's and 70's, they were unaccepted and put out by most of sociaty. now, almost anything is accepted. but that is beside the point. it is a good cd. dude ranch was my favorite, cause of classics like ""apple shampoo"", ""lemmings"" and others, but this is still really good. powerpoppunk. and if you can seriously call mxpx punk, and only say blink 182 is pop, you have got to be joking me."
+1417,1,Excess Sound? Is this right?,"When I got the camera, I immediately noticed the small size. That along with the CCD were pluses, but as soon as I turned on the camera for recording, that's when the problems started. First of all, please, somebody tell me if this is correct or if I should return it for an exchange (mine may be faulty):The winding noise from the DV tape is captured onto all films recorded. This means that there is a constant train like noise captured onto all of the videos I record from this camcorder. I'm thinking that the manufacturer's can't be that stupid to make such a faulty mistake, so I'm gonna try to exchange this for another one. Is there any hope in doing this, or does all JVC GR-D230's have this problem?I also didn't like the need to install their proprietary software.Please, people who have this camera, tell me if this is a common mistake that you have to live with, or is this just a faulty item they shipped. Thanks"

+1420,2,Computers as leaders?,"This unique book explores the relationship between computers and its role in leadership management. No other text (to my awareness) has been written that captures and speculates on this topic involving ""symbiotic links"" that exist between potential computer-human interventions. The authors future predictions are both exciting and scary. Being a groundbreaking text though, one needs to be cautious in drawing overblown conclusions (as there are very few prior 'factual' references, studies or standards on which the author can cite to justify his evaluations). Thus despite an exhaustive bibliography, much of what is written here-in boils down to the authors opinions; yet there is enough 'food for thought' here that his conclusions cannot be easily dismissed either..."
+1421,1,Pitiful,This is a two disc set and both disc were in terrible condition. They skip all over the whole array of songs. I had to throw the thing away.

+1423,2,Great first humidor!,"I didn't go with a smaller humidor so that I would have room to grow and with a low price of $42, it wasn't much of a burden. It was well worth it. The appearance is great, the structure is sturdy, and the seal is excellent and it keeps the humidity level easily."
+1424,2,Fits AT2020 and other Mics,"Excellent Quality and Craftsmanship.I was expecting less of this product for its price and the job it will do, I figured it would be made out of a ""cheap"" feeling metal. I was wrong. It is very stable and steady and feels like good steel or aluminum maybe. It is strong to. It feels like I could really bang it (I won't) and it would not break.I use this with an Audio Technica AT2020 which screws in perfectly snug but is still rotatable on the base. The mount holds it firm and keeps the mic still. It does eliminate a little vibration but if you pound on your desk (or whatever)that will still come through. It looks cool too (and everybody knows that matters). I am very pleased with this purchase."

+1426,1,Changed the order....,"We had really wanted his particular photo to give to our son for his birthday. However, due to it's apparent popularity, it was no longer availble. We did receive another photo of Brett, though not as good and not really what we wanted. It came in good condition and quickly, but paid too much for the picture we ended up with - wasn't worth the charge we accepted for the tunnel photo."
+1427,2,from a Venice lover,"I anxiously awaited this book because The Garden of Good & Evil was a blast and had such a wonderful flow. This one feels a little clumsier and contrived but since Venice is one of my favorite cities, it kept my interest. I'm giving it a four because I consider Berendt a fine writer but wish he had cooked up a jucier plot."
+1428,1,Double OUCH!,"What an extreme case of pee-pee envy, mixed up with a love of male genital mutilation. The woman who wrote this certainly has some serious issues, not the least of which deals with boundries and control."
+1429,1,This book is totally useless.,I am taking a Java class and I have to buy this book. There are a lot of error in this book. I have already known about C++. I have a programming concept but I was so confused when I read this book. You will learn nothing if you read this book. I have to buy the other book to read and clearify many points that I do not understand after I read this book. I will throw away this book after I finish my class for sure.
+1430,2,A Misplace Gem,"Without going into any plot details, if you are looking for a film from one of the golden eras of horror (late 70's/early 80's)you probably won't be disappointed. I was pleasantly surprised to discover it. Flavours of Texas Chainsaw and Friday the 13th are sprinkled throughout, along with the slighted faded colours and cliched characters indicative of the time. Great atmosphere and straight forward story. Combine with alcohol, smoke and a Friday night and you will be entertained. Spooky!"
+1431,1,Horrible Book,"I'd rate it with a zero if I could. Ezzo's whole concept is just ridiculous and I can't see how it is beneficial for mom or baby. The part that gets me really irritated is that new moms that have no idea where to start can take this guy's writing as a godsend. But I warn any mom out there that making a baby adhere to a schedule will just make you crazy. The book itself annoyed me, the concepts annoyed me, and the fact that people actually continue to buy into the ideas in the book really concerns me. I just hope at least one mom reads this and believes me. There are plenty of awesome baby advice books out there. Try a Dr. Sears book or just plain follow your instincts!!!"

+1435,1,"cute bear, but womb sounds broke down","We were given this as a gift and within a week or two the womb sounds machine was broken. It will only play for about 30 seconds. I can't return it as it was a gift.As a teddy bear, it's very cute and cuddly, and my son loves it, but if you're buying it for the sounds machine then don't bother. We ended up pulling out the machine and stitching the bear back up so it can be a regular teddy bear."
+1436,1,Jane Austen Collection BBC,"I was extremely disappointed in the quality of these dvds. They are fuzzy and I almost get seasick watching some of the camera motion. It's awful! And I was not expecting a low budget, stage-acting tv series. It would have been nice for it to have been clearly stated that these are TV productions, not movies. I could hardly stand to watch them. They have that British sitcom look. I will likely be donating this to my local library in the hopes that someone might get some enjoyment out of them since I can't stomach them myself. Waste of money."
+1437,1,Bad OCR job on the Kindle edition,"At first when I was reading this book I'd every now and then stumble across a misplaced character. ""Tom cat"" became ""torn cat"", every now and then a parenthesis would sneak its way in, or a semicolon.Now that I'm about halfway through, it seems like one very other page I encounter at least one instance of incorrect characters.It seems to me that this book was converted to Kindle by means of optical character recognition (OCR). Whoever was reviewing the OCR job for mistakes wasn't very good in the first place, and it seems about halfway through he or she just gave up.Having to stop and unwind the mystery of the misplaced character is just terrible for immersion. It's also inexcusable in age when the publisher certainly possesses perfect digital copies of the text."
+1438,2,Willie Banks DVD In Concert,This was a great dvd. It showed Willie Banks and the messengers performing some of their songs. I would recommend this dvd to anyone who likes good gospel music.
+1439,2,Professional Skin Caliper,Product for professional purposes. The price isn't cheap. Very good certified caliper. You pay (a lot) for a professional caliper.
+1440,2,"Fact, fantasy, or just good ol� fiction?","""Good Lawd, somebody hold my hand!!!!"" was what Imagany said when she first met Elliott Renfroe. Well, that's also how I felt after I finished this book. When I read the love scenes (mercy, mercy, me!) I had to ask myself, did I just read what I just read, or what? The chemistry, passion, eroticism, just good ol' plain lovin' - call it what you want - was out of this world! Anytime a plot can hold my attention from start to finish, I know it's a good book. Much respect to Robyn Williams. She definitely has a fan for life in me!"
+1441,2,Rally spell binding book,I have read almost all her books and each one is a spellbinding. It is really hard to put down.
+1442,2,Breath of Magic,"Great book. Modern day story with love, magic, and time travel all weaved in. Wonderful settings with rich characters. I almost feel like I was there during the time travel changes. Scene changes so realistic. The romantic element was lively, realistic, and juicy. Not predictable and kept me guessing what would happen next. Really fun!"

+1445,1,"Slow, tuneless, boring.","This, that horrible collection of pop tunes, her prayers and her xmas carols are the Sumi Jo recitals I deliberately did NOT buy. Until the bitter end, I suckered to the reviews, craved some more of that wonderful singing and bought the pop crap and now this. I do not like art songs (except some Mozart), particularly not art songs to a piano accompaniment. If you do (and if you say you do, I'll doubt you), dig in, this is your meat and potatoes. Her voice is beautiful (it always was), the music is not."
+1446,2,A most incredible book.,"I'm at the age of sixteen and have read dozens of books on how to develop your psychic intuition. Some helped but Andrei's book did it for me. Not only that, it opened up a COMPLETELY NEW world to me. No doubt it will for you. If your looking or trying to start up your psyche, get this book. It will be the only one you will ever need. I'm sixteen and am a pyschic myself. But then again you are too. This book will prove it."
+1447,1,Bad book for a great game,"We all know that a book is almost never written by the creators of a game, only a few big names are printed on the cover. Do you realy think that Bruce Shelley had time to write this book. I purchased this one from amazon where I can't be sure that the few 4 star reviewrs did even read the book, and yes it is true that somebody did delete all the 1 star reviews?????? I don't suggest any buy this book. Take your chances with another, because this one is terrible. And trust me, I am not the writter of a competing book."
+1448,1,"Don't be fooled, it IS just a demo!","4 star average and a low price gold box deal usually equal a done deal for me. I bought this game the last time they had it on sale, and I feel like I was ripped off.The name made me a bit weary with ""Prologue"" but who really releases demos at full game price? I bought it thinking it would be a new, fun installment in the series with all of the other unlockable content and adjustability, but it is not!You can't switch from first person mode.You do not have even half the cars available.There are only a few tracks.The medal ceremony music is atrocious, and you cannot skip it.The load times between garage, dealership, and events are annoying.Don't buy it unless you are a collector and need this ridiculous fraction of a game."
+1449,2,Ever Knee Shall Bow,"While there are a variety of angles for revealing the truth of Universal Reconciliation through Christ, this book exists for the person who has a severely high view of the bible. This book adequately supplies the reader with the plethora of scriptures that support that idea that Jesus, the apostles, and the early Church fathers believed and taught that ALL would be rescued by Christ in the end (as opposed to a tiny minority of ""Christians,"" while the majority of humans would either burn forever in hell, or be annihilated). All in all, this book is a great resource for biblical evidence supporting the Golden Thread of Universal Reconciliation through Christ alone, and by Christ alone, that exists in Scripture. On a scale of being ""easy to read,"" I would rate it at about a 6 (1 being incredibly easy, and ten being incredibly difficult)."
+1450,1,Disappointed,"Bzezsny does not come through with his promise of an antidote for paranoia. The book is very experiential and would be adequately described as a workbook of esoteric, narcissistic, and sometimes profane, exercises that will help only those with excessive time on their hands. But then again if you are familiar with Brezsny you might get exactly what you would expect."

+1454,1,"A ""mystery"" for morons","This one actually deserves ZERO stars, but I can't go lower than 1 star on this format. I had read one or two of MHC's books, and hated them both for being simplistic and predictable(I can't remember the titles). But on a trip to NYC from my home in CA, I needed something quick to read on the plane, and this book was the closest thing at hand at the airport souvenir shop. Sure enough, the plot was predictable, the characters dull and one- dimensional, and -- trust me!! -- there's more to being in the Witness Protection Program than the very brief, skimmed-over, and INACCURATE facts MHC gives us. I couldn't finish it. I left it in the hotel room. PEOPLE, SAVE YOUR MONEY!!! This one really stinks."

+1456,1,Another Desert Dreamtime Journey Review,"I purchased this DVD based solely on the three reviews below.I can only assume the reviewers were watching on 25 inch or smaller analog sets. On my Toshiba 57HX81 HDTV, with Sony progressive scan DVD player the video quality was poor to say the least. Very grainy, and almost blurred at times, it came across to me like VHS tape resolution not DVD. The film is also full of dust specks scattered throughout the 77 minutes.What's even more disappointing is, it was shot in standard 4:3, not widescreen. A movie designed to show the majesty of the desert and they don't shoot widescreen?The audio quality is OK, but you only get Dolby Digital 2.0 not 5.1."
+1457,1,"Genocide, how does this benefit me?","I can appreciate where he was going with this book but how will the systematic annihalation of the african american and jewish races help my daughter come to grips with the problems youth face in the 21st century??I enjoyed the illistrations but the word ""towel head"" deeply disturbed both my daughter and I!"
+1458,1,Give me a break!,"I started off the book feeling sympathetic for the Ramseys - for about 10 pages. They proceeded to provide very little fact about the details of the night of their daughter's murder. Instead, it was a poor version of ""woe is me"". Please! These people kept talking about how they're ""just like anybody else"", the proceed to whine about how mounting legal costs forced them to sell their private jet and vacation home. I'm lucky if I can pay my rent on time! The only thing redeeming about this book was the display of how the media can indeed twist and distort facts and rumors, and tarnish people's lives. Beyond that, it was whine, whine, whine; plenty of ""poor us"" which left me wondering, ""What about poor JonBenet? """
+1459,1,Borring and weird,"It seems like Orson are not quite sure how he want to write this book - a little suspense in the beginning and the end. You think something will happen most of the time, but all you get is a teaching about how the mormons live and how their community works.After 14 hours of the family getting into all kind of weird situations (for a very loving family to get so many enymies is just weird) you finally have about 45 minutes of ""terror/suspense"". But that is mostly because you can't wait for the book to finally get to the end.If he had come to this end after 6 hours it would have been better..."
+1460,1,"Hiss, Static and a little bit of Music on the side","To be absolutely fair about this, I live in an area of ""fringe"" reception as far as radio stations go. I forked over about $50. thinking that the digital tuning on this unit would improve the fading and volume loss that I encountered with the cheap radios I was using while running. The first SRF-M80V that I tried would only get one station and even then, the noise:signal ratio was unacceptable. Thinking it was defective, I returned it for another one which worked slightly better, but still had unacceptable reception. The antenna is apparently in the headphone cord and the bouncing around while running does bad things for the sound quality. If you're in a metropolitan area, it might work for you, but stay away if you are rural/suburban."
+1461,2,Love these,"I really love this product and brand seeing as this is my second time buying it. I can't find these in store anywhere where I live, so it's great to have them available online. I would definitely recommend this. Thanks!!!"
+1462,1,As far as I could go,"I got as far as watching the third episode and decided I had had enough of a poorly written re-telling of an old tale, old themes and characters that did not fit the roles. Maybe I missed the point of some of the previous episodes this isn't a romantic re-telling, it isn't believable, it seems to be a sci-fi but it just didn't make it. The fantasy stuff was silly, the romantic scenes were silly. The director had to be unhappy with the lead actor, costuming was mis-matched, it seemed like the director couldn't decide if the characters should look like cave dwellers or wear futuristic fantasy costumes. Dialogue was ""campy"" and trite. Not a classic flick for sure not even a good made-for-tv series. I guess I'm too old school for any remaking of classic tales other than the way they have already be done, Regrave and Harris, Burton etc."
+1463,2,you get what you pay for.,"so the lines aren't bad. BUT ""This set includes four sand boundary anchors"" >>>You might aswel go to Dick's sporting goods and get better ones for 1$ each before your shipment comes in. ""with stretch cord connectors"" >>> That, you will also need, which can be found at Home Depot. The ones it comes with will last 3-4 games and will start falling apart.But the important thing is the lines. They lasted all through the summer (playing 6 days a week) and are still being used!"
+1464,1,Falls Short of its Goal in Every Way a Book Can,"""Compelling evidence?"" False advertising if I've ever seen it.The only people such ""evidence"" would manage to sway are people who already believe. That's a fairly poor scientific standard. I have spent my whole life WANTING to believe, and my intellect not letting me - I came to this book WANTING to find something compelling - and it fell so far short.The writing wasn't even compelling - until the end, when the author is re-counting someone ELSE'S narrative.Poor, poor, poor, in every sense, and didn't get into the specifics of Dr. Stevenson's methodology, which would be the place to start if you wanted anyone to believe in the solidity of the research."
+1465,2,this movie rules!,This movie was good from starting to end.(The end is the best.) The actind done by every actor in the movie is great. But there is some chessy parts.
+1466,2,pokemon emerald - used,"The game was received in the condition as advertised. All of the options worked and there were some extra characters enabled in the game. The cartridge was not a ""copy"" from what I can tell. The label was missing but that was called out in the description. This game is hard to find locally so I was happy to see it on Amazon."
+1467,1,Not so great,"Although Matthew Lillard did an oscar worthy preformance of shaggy (it's very hard to distingush between him and the cartoon) the rest of the cast was somewhat of a bad casting job. I give them credit they did try...The CGI scooby was fairly good technologically wise, but just not quite the fun cuddly scooby from the cartoon. ...Worth seeing if you are a big scooby fan..."
+1468,1,Don't listen to the other reviewers it sucked!,"I did not like Spiderman 2 at all (...)! It was like watching a soap opera movie or something with no action in it. All there is, is just graphics there's not any fighting in it. Doc Ock wasn't a villian at all he was just tryin to go after Spiderman for what he did to him and all. I don't really see Tobey Maguire as Spiderman that much he just wasn't right at all. Kirsten Dunst was allright as MJ and she's georgeous. I wouldn't mind having a girl like that. James Franco would have been a better Spiderman than Tobey Maguire. Why did they had to choose Tobey? I hate Tobey Maguire and all of his movies they suck and he's also boring who never says a word. But anyways don't waste your money on this movie it's very bad. That goes along with the first Spiderman. Both Spiderman movies suck!"
+1469,1,Don't waste your money,"I bought it because I thought it would be neat for my daughter to hear the royal sound. NOT! The red light wouldn't shut off, and when we weren't even around you would hear it go off. Plus my daughter wanted to keep putting her hands down in the potty to make it make the noise. It leaks and is hard to get off of the big girl potty. My advice is to just keep on walking when you see it in the store."
+1470,2,Well-Done,"I have no opinion. However, I would suggest this movie along with the two others in The Twilight Saga. I believe a younger generation will appreciate it the most."
+1471,2,One of the best films I have seen in a long while,This is a feel good movie that really delivers. Sandra Bullock well deserved the Oscar for this one. Based on a true story the director focuses in on the soft side of a young man who has been tossed around all of his life. He finally is found by a family that learns to love him and wants the best for him. Born with natural athletic ability and the determination to succeed Michael Oher is pointed in the right direction and is still playing footbal for the Ravens today. Great movie.
+1472,1,Nothing new here.,"Written for someone who knows absolutely nothing about extroversion/introversion. Way too much talk about extroverts. I didn't see any ""advantage"" for introverts here. Incredibly boring. I recommend ""Party of One: The Loner's Manifesto"" instead."
+1473,1,Odered Sweet and Sour Pops and got Sweet Pops,"I received this order of pops today March 24, 2011 and was not what is pictured. I got sweet pops instead with a small label on the plastic that the box is wrapped in stating sweet and sour pops. Then when you open it you do not have equal amount of variety of pops . You get 19 cherry, 12 Strawberry, 11 grape, 5 orange and 1 blue razz berry. Misrepresentation of merchandise."
+1474,2,Searching for Joseph Campbell's Wisdom,"Marvelous study of mythology and the wisdom of a great American philosopher, Joseph Campbell. Replaced my old, almost worn out audio tapes with these CDs. Can listen to Campbell over and over again, and gain new insights and knowledge each time. Perfect listening for car travel. Also perfect as a gift for that special someone."
+1475,1,Worthless for me,"For my cursive handwriting, recognition out of the box was about 40%.I could NOT train it (after the exhausting training session) so that it would accept my handwriting...you must get 80%, and I could only get 75% so had to start over multiple times.I find it useless."
+1476,1,Not what I expected,"I picked up this album in a big box store. I had been looking for a good compilation album of some of ELP's hits, and this looked like it would do. Unfortunately, nowhere on the box does it say that it's a live album. I wouldn't have bought it if it had been labeled as such. Frankly I find some songs absulutely butchered by the long solo sequences, and the audience singing along in other songs just ruins the whole set for me."
+1477,1,Extreme Shipping Costs,"The price of the paper looks great. However, the shipping costs were extremly high. The S&H were almost expensive as the rolls of paper."
+1478,2,Wear Ever Backpack Lounger,"I have been using this chair for a few weeks now, it was a fathers day gift from my lovely wife. It is VERY easy to get comfortable in it and I do have back and leg pain issues so its a good lightweight chair. Compact and handy for loading other items like blankets and towels, personal items, etc. in the large pouch sewn into the back. Neck/headrest is adjustable for the shorter torso-ed people. Gripes are ther is a slight discofort when fully reclined due to a bar across the bottom of the chair you can feel. Needs another pocket on it when in use for items such as cell phones and portable GPS units too. We are boaters who beach frequently so you gotta have all the toys with you!

+1479,1,What happened to Foster Brooks???,"Living in Fji, we do not have much access to the latest TV shows and movies.We were fortunate a couple of months ago to see the ""Make 'Em Laugh"" series on Pay TV here. It was great to see the old comics and learn so much about their craft. In particular, we enjoyed the ""Pilot"" sketch with Foster Brooks and Dean Martin. We have always had a soft spot for Foster Brooks and bought the DVD to have a permanent record of the ""Pilot"".We watched the series all the way through and it seems that the ""Pilot"" has already flown away!!!!One wonders how many other scenes were cut from the original series in the making of the DVD.We will definitley think twice about buying anything from Amazon in future."
+1480,1,Not what I needed...This reads like a history book and,"I was looking for more info on the emotional and psychological impact. I also didn't see enough negative information; in other words, I don't think ANY of the books I've read on swinging are properly balanced with both positive and negative feedback from participants."
+1481,2,Square is Much Better Than Circle,"This was easily the best Pitt mystery in several years. For one thing, the silly Inner Circle plot is gone from this book. For another thing, all the major characters play significant roles in solving a mystery that, while quite complex, is understandable and, at its conclusion, makes perfect sense. This was a very satisfying return to form for Perry. Hopefully, this will continue into her next Monk book, because those too have been a little off kilter for awhile."
+1482,1,Sucks!,This product is such a gimmick. It doesn't do anything. It tingles when you put it on and that's it. I'm going to return this. Nivea and St. Ives work exactly the same for $12 instead of $75..
+1483,2,Very cute,"This toy is great. I wasn't sure at first but it went on sale, so I purchased it. The tractor is so cute and makes noises and vibrates. It comes with lots of animals and a trailer. My kids love it."
+1484,1,Obviously biased and badly researched,"In response to the review by the so-called teacher from Belfast(who couldn't even spell teacher, and several other words) I must point out that this is a review of the book, not a forum for you to air your bigotry and hatred of a certain organisation. This book is obviously badly researched, relying on information from sources who have reason to show the INLA in a bad light.It would have benefitted from the input of a range of objective and informed contributors who want to present a well researched and true reflection of this organisation. And, as I currently live in Northern Ireland, and have lived there all my life, you may not find it so easy to discredit my opinion on this matter."
+1485,2,Cute Movie,This is a great movie for little ones who can't get enough of snoopy! I didn't even know that Charlie Brown had an Easter movie. We loved it.
+1486,2,Saves money,"Bought due to ratings and it is worth it. Just bought my 2nd filter, in fact I have it set on automatic shipment in 2 months and I get like a $2 discount. I recall reading 10000 gallons or 3 months until replacement. Since I'll never be able to measure 10000 gallons 3 months sounds good, except I use it a lot and noticed at about 2.5 months that water was tasting like tap so I'd say every 2 months is good."
+1487,2,A RESEARCH GEM!,"Baddeley demonstrates an impressive knowledge of memory research, and he communicates this knowledge using a very readable writing-style. This is an excellent book for anyone seeking a solid overview of this area."
+1488,2,Very god!,"For the most part I was thrilled with this movie. They do change a couple things, most importantly how Margaret and Mr. Thornton meet. That scene really bothered me because it didn't seem at all true to his character in the book. However, the rest did make up for it! I'm definetly glad I bought it, and I""ll be viewing it often!"
+1489,2,I love this series,Worth paying for... love this series and the people. All the plot twists mean it never gets old. Can't wait to see Season 3.
+1490,1,should you have to purchase a book to make it work?,"Despite the rather weak character presentation, I really enjoyed the game's puzzles and the scenery of it until nothing I could do would advance it. I checked a hint site and two downright walkthroughs and found I had done everything I was supposed to, but could get no response from the character who had to continue speaking to me for the game to go any farther. When I asked the company, I was told I would need to purchase a $9.95 book that would maybe reveal something I, and all the hint sites, had overlooked."
+1491,2,Great Series,Still impressed by this series! Loving the new characters and the supsense of the story line. Great purchase for sure!
+1492,2,Love it!,"Got this in Saturday Morning, Its HUGE! Love it! There is one downside, Its just the Leaf, there is no 'New Zealand' on it. Other than that its a great product, like i said its really big which i love. I'm just bummed that it doesn't say 'New Zealand'."
+1493,1,-,"well, this game , ithink, is just a bit too-blahh-.its probably just me, but this guy only walks! the days are too short, and there are too many things.of course if you want a game like this, skip my review, but this is what i think. i just hate this game!! annoying how slow this guy is! you cant ask a person the same question twice if you already have a wife.and there are like 30 people in the house. i just dont like it."
+1494,2,Life Changing!,"Under the right circumstances, the information in this book could be considered ""life changing""! I know for me, that was just the case. HIGHLY recommended for ANY woman, but especially to those who have endured any type of abuse as a child or even as an adult. Best purchase I've ever made!"
+1495,2,Good Quality,Item was quality and arrived in perfect condition. No problem with shipping. Optical adapter works perfect on my E17 FiiO. Better than going straight in. Happy with my order.
+1496,1,You've gotta be kidding me,This is possibly the dumbest movie that I have seen in quite awhile. I am hoping I can sell it used on Amazon to someone that will like it better than I do. It is bad enough that I would prefer not to keep it.
+1497,2,"No sophomore slump, but there's room for improvement","This album gets off to an AMAZING start, but, unfortounantley, this is not sustained throughout the entire album. ""Wake Up"" is dreadful, and the last three songs ""Slow Down"", ""Samsonite Man"", and ""Nobody Not Really"" are average. But the rest is enough to save it from the sophomore slump."
+1498,2,"Great seat, love it!","I love the seat! My daughter is 12 months and we went for our first ride a few days ago. She LOVED it and cried when we got home. She is a bit fascinated by bikes and motorcycles though.The seat is really tough to get onto the rack, although I plan to just leave it in place for the most part. Maybe after taking it off/on a few times it would loosen a little? But I am glad it feels secure. I agree the foot straps are a little weird, but I just strapped them over the front (toe) of her shoe and that worked OK.As for the rack, I took my bike for a tune-up and brought the rack so the bike shop installed it for free. Love it!"
+1499,1,Hair metal at its worst,"It's funny. All whom say this band was great, should bear in mind the following: I've watche one TV program, that talked about the hair-metal bands of the eighties, where George Lynch himself admmited that all Dokken did was copying the ohters, be it in musical terms, in wardrobe, wahtever!!So, TOOTH AND NAIL displays the worst hair metal could offer. Don Dokken sometimes can sin properly, but just the vision of the band in the booklet dressed like girls made wanna puck."
+1500,1,Mike who?,"First of all, if anyone is fooled by the notion that Mike Love served any purpose to the Beach Boys other than being the guy who fought Brian Wilson with unparalled jealousy over the direction of Pet Sounds and SMiLE is mistaken. Not to take anything away from his natural gift with his great bass filled R&B voice but his latest shenaningans by suing Brian Wilson over the SMiLE album are just evil. After all that Brian Wilson has been through in his tormented life, Mike Love should be ashamed of himself. Once we put in perspective what kind of person Mike Love really is (from his drunken behavior at the 1988 Hall of Fame induction ceremony of the Beach Boys to his insane jealousy of Brian Wilson and SMiLE)we see how he has turned into a whore of a corrupted and ruined music industry. Do not waste your money on Mike Love and this album. Buy SMiLE instead and show Mike Love who the true leader and genius behind the Beach Boys really is."
+1501,1,What a waste!,I bought this monitor at the babiesrus store based on a reccomendation from one of the employees. She said a lot of people bought this item and she never got any complaints or returns. Well I took the monitor home and sset it up and it worked wonderfully from the next room. Well that night I took the monitor in the bedroom (about 30 feet from her room) and the reception went horrible. It got a lot of static and became very annoying. I tried putting it on different channels and finally decided that channel 3 was tolerable (although it still got a bit of static). The next day my laptop went haywire. I couldn't get my wireless card to see the router and after hours of frustration figured out that it was the monitor interfering. Do not buy this product if you have a wireless network in your home. It's a complete waste of money.
+1502,2,Not non-stick,"Not pre-seasoned (""durable black enamel finish (no seasoning required)"" from the description) either. It's big, heavy, and holds some serious heat. We bought this to get away from a telfon coated pan. My wife convinced me that it shouldn't stick, but pancakes are a real challenge for the first few (even with the use of oil). For all other items, this is a nice pan, and the green adds a splash of color."
+1503,1,Should be a -5 rating,"I have wasted more than 200 hours with HP Technical Support--what a joke--and have gone through 2 ""refurbished"" replacements. I use XP Pro and this machine will not maintain a wireless connection. Paper jams. Will not print with a wired connection. I was promised another replacement that never arrived. When I called HP about this, HP said they had no record of their promise and that now my warranty had expired. HP has the worst tech support of any company in my experience. This product is a lemon. HP should have recalled it."
+1504,1,Sadly the final season was a letdown,"Gilmore Girls was an amazing show. Unfortunatly, the final season was a disaster after the creator left. It is really too bad. If you want real Gilmore Girls, watch the other seasons instead."
+1505,1,Before buying this game go to the game website and verify it is the correct video card as only 10 video cards work!,"Well my pc is about 1 1/2 years old and can play any game until this one! I have all the requirements even the upgraded video card. I was able to download, but then when I try to open the game it goes from a black screen and then back to my desktop. I checked the website for the game [...] and only about 10 video cards are listed that work many upgraded video cards don't even work and they have them listed there so just because you have the necessary requirements to play doesn't mean you are going to be able to. I'm out $20 hope no one else has to be!"
+1506,2,Looked a long time for a good coffee maker!,"I've gone through a lot of coffee makers looking for one that makes coffee as good as I find in restaurants. This one surprised me with the first cup. If you've been searching for a good coffee maker, you found it. I've had mine for more than a month now and make 2 to 3 pots a day with it. Very good coffee! However, I find the replacement water filters a little hard to find locally, but they are available in many places online."
+1507,2,busylady,I love this for quick clean-ups on bare floors. Just wish the cord was longer. I have it plugged into an extension cord and that helps.
+1508,2,"""This book will make you become REAL!""","A boy named Omri gets a cupboard for his birthday present and then finds a key.One of his presents is a indian.His friend is Pactrice,Omri has two brothers .One is named Adiel, throuhg the book they go throuhg conflices.I liked this book because it's alot like me and my littile brother.I love how boone talks."
+1509,2,Couldn't put it down,"Cane River as an absolutely fantasic work of art. Ms. Tademy has a spell-binding way of writing that draws you into each of the real-life characters of her timeless family story. This book was educational as well as entertaining. It made me cry, it made me think. The book is so engulfing in it's story, that you just don't want to put it down. It is very smoothly written; thus, an easy and quick read. I would highly recommend this book to those who are interested in genealogy, African-American history, sagas, and an edge of the seat read."
+1510,1,A Prayer For Owen Meany vs. Simon Birch,"I don't even know where to being. Upon completion of the book A Prayer For Owen Meany, I found my previous adoration for the film slowely spiraling downward. I actually believe this film is a slap in the face to Irving's story. Ian Michael Smith has taken an amazing tale of heroism, faith, and humantiy and dumbed it down into a syrupy sweet family sob story.Don't see the movie. Instead, take in the story with Irving's amazing words."
+1511,2,One smokin' blues album!,"When my son came running in the house yelling ""You have got to hear this!"" I had no idea what the fuss was about. I soon learned. From the beginning to the end, this CD never drops in intensity. Buddy Guy shows why is one of the top blues players around. The G.E. Smith band is an excellent backing band and Lenny Pickett of Tower of Power fame blows the hottest sax blues solo I have ever heard. Get this album. It is so hot you will wonder why your CD player doesn't catch on fire."
+1512,1,Terrible,Arrogant..... self serving and not worth the paper it is printed on. It was a waste of money to me.
+1513,1,"A sequel to ""Without Remorse"", but Clancy has lost his touch","Now and then, a good writer writes a bad book. This is one such. ""Rainbow Six"" is Clancy's second book about John Clark, an unromantic CIA agent with a license to kill. His first, ""Without Remorse"", built the character of Clark, and was perhaps Clancy's best writing. ""Without Remorse"" wasn't a techno-thriller, but more of a classic character novel. ""Rainbow Six"" is more a classic Clancy gadget story, but unlike his Jack Ryan novels, this time he can't pull the threads of unlikely events together into a believable whole. The book revolves around a succession of terrorist plots executed for no visible reason, and when the reason finally becomes clear, it doesn't make sense, especially since the bad guys aren't portrayed as dumb.I wonder if Clancy even wrote this turkey. It reads more like the ""Op-Center"" books, on which he puts his name but doesn't write."
+1514,1,Garbage,Poor build quality (cheap materials). Very buggy (connection is completely unreliable with multiple BlueTooth capable phones).
+1515,1,Horrible,Horrible model. I was really looking forward to this with my son. Very poor quality. I would not recommend this to anyone.
+1516,2,sequence is an interesting game,Deluxe SequenceWe found this game and have enjoyed playing it. It combines the luck of the draw and a lot of strategy.
+1517,2,Very relaxing,"This was a great video for relaxing and stretching out stiff muscles. I have fibromyalgia and it is very difficult to find yoga videos that help when you are really stiff, sore and hurting. This video is great for that purpose and I would recommend it for others who have fibromyalgia."
+1518,2,Perfect pillboxes for twice daily fish feeding,So I bought 3 of these pill boxes to fill with a variety of fish food for feeding my fish. They are great for this since they have large AM/PM compartments on separate daily containers for twice a day feeding. The separate day containers are great so there isn't a huge week container that you have to manipulate and in my case the individual containers are better for dropping the contents into the feeding slot on the top of a huge fish tank. The lids could be sturdier but they have and will serve their purpose well and are exactly what I needed. I can have 3 weeks of food laid out for myself or someone taking care of my tank if I'm gone.
+1519,2,Art of animal drawing,"amazing book, would have liked a few more types of animals such as lizards, birds, & fish but for mammals its great."
+1520,1,The spin machine breaks down ... again,"This author has been so carved, spindled, mutilated and thoroughly discredited in his recent media appearances to tout this ripe tripe that he has gone underground while only the right-wing belfry is left to pad his bank account. Pathetic. And so is this book-like object."
+1521,1,flimsy shade canopy,This is a very flimsy canopy. Support legs are not sturdy enough to hold up the canopy in even a light wind.
+1522,1,Terrible Book,"Someone told me this was similar to Black Lace books. Nope. It's not. I couldn't get into the story, and I don't remember much of it. I just remember being disappointed because it wasn't a good read, black lace or otherwise."
+1523,1,Boring/stupid,"What can I say about this game? Hmmm.......... Well, I can start out by saying that the graphics are simplistic, the soung is annoying, and the actual game, well, you are in a helicopter, which is impossible to steer and to do your missions, you pull people up and put out fires. Wow. Don't get this game; it's awful. Don't waste good money buying this garbage."
+1524,1,Twister Board,"I wish someone could come up with a twist board the was bigger. This i think is a small 10"" board. I believe alot of people would order it more if it were a 16-16.5"" Board. The bumps on the top shouldn't be there. Should be smooth non stick on surface, and really the average person should have a wider board. I really want to return it. I think for kids this size may be fine, but for a teenager or adult its way too small. Please let me know if anyone out there knows where i can find a 16-16.5"" Board. I'd order it even if there were ridges. I would love to find this item. If its smooth i would be extremely happy."
+1525,2,I'D LIKE TO START A LEGACY WITH HIM!,The cover is one of the hottest covers I've seen in quite awhile (especially if you see it fully open). The story was pretty good but the love scenes left a little to be desired. Dillon Blackhawk should have been a biker with his attitude and looks.
+1526,1,At Least It Doesn't Weigh Much,"I am grateful that this book is not very heavy, as I found myself carrying it around in my backpack all day yesterday. Other than that, I'm not exactly thrilled with this book. The recipes are indeed oversimplified and generally vague, and leave my wife (who grew up in a Filipino household) and I muttering, ""Wait, that can't be right...."""
+1527,1,plodding,While this movie covers a period of history that gets no attention on this side of the pond it was slow moving and the action scenes were rather dull. Interesting but not someyhing that I would watch a second time. Kind of regret buying this one.
+1528,1,Infamous Aircaraft,"The book is misnamed. There were very little about ""Dangerous designs and their vices"" and I was disappointed with it. I found some sections interesting but becasue of the title I was expecting so much more. The section on early Russian jets was the part I enjoyed the most. Just wish the author had talked about the vices of those aricraft."
+1529,1,Boring and poorly written!,"This book is so predictable that you'll know the ending after reading the first chapter. Worse, though, it was apparently never proofread. I've never seen so many grammatical errors in one book!"
+1530,1,High hopes...dashed,It is such a great idea to not have to pour from a thermos to have warm coffee on trips but I have yet to find one that will last more than once or twice! Bummer
+1531,1,This Is A Child Book,"I think this book was a bore for me.It was not a good book.If I was 3 I might like it.This book is not my catagorie of reading.I don't like to read but I read this book because I thought it might be good, but it wasn't."
+1532,2,Delicious!,I brought these as a reward for my students and they loved them! Taste and appearance was A+! Not too sour - just right!
+1533,2,The Greatest Rock Compilation of All Times!,"I have been a fan of The Police for 22 years. If you are not a fan already, after listening to this 4 CD set, you will become a lifelong one. The Police take you on a musical journey through their punk days, to the more polished and melodic hits that we know and love. Sting is an incredible storyteller ! Through his music you learn about the political war his first wife's family endured in ""Invisible Sun"", to love lost and found. You could feel the intense love and passion Stewart Copeland, Sting, and Andy Summers pour into each each song. BUY IT!"
+1534,1,If Only...(I hadn't picked up this book),"So, I admit it. I read If Only. And I also admit that I cried. I wept mostly for the lost time, but I also shed a tear or two for the wasted potencial of this book. I'm not a Spice Girl fan, but I do admit that tumoltuous lives intrigue me. Marilyn Monroe, Princess Diana, Geri Halliwell. The memoirs are rambling, redundant and incoherant. Between the fluff, however, are moments of joy, sadness, and insight. Brief moments, mind you. If you're willing to to read through fluff without wearing the rose tinted glasses of a Spice fan, you may find it worth your time. Not likely, but one should never say never."
+1535,1,Blender blades are fragile!,"We don't use a blender frequently, so our blenders don't see hard use. The motor base on this one seems plenty powerful, but after about 10-15 uses, the blades in the blender container sheared in half while I was making a smoothie."
+1536,1,the unseen: a very mysterious book,"The Book, The Unseen was a great book. It was a very mysterious book and it dealt with figuring out a mystery to the world. I will not tell you every little detail about the the book but I will tell you some things about this book. Thus book is a great book it is also well written and it makes you feel as though you are there. It makes you feel as though you are going through the same thing that Xandra is going through. Xandra is the main character in this book. She loves animals and cares for every one that she finds that is injured. One animal in particular is a beautiful white swan that she finds in the woods that had been shot. The beautiful bird enede up leaving her a surprise which ended up being a key to the world. But to find out what that is you must read the book and find the key to the world with Xandra."
+1537,2,Great and affordable!,"I bought this for my fiance' for Christmas, and I don't think I've seen him without it since! He says it's his best gift this year. And at such a good price, it's definitely worth it!"
+1538,1,Not as fun as the original,I got this for my kids from Santa because one of my sisters and I used to love to play the original version of the game (with people). They have really went down in quality in the years since. The game was falling apart the first day. If I had spent much on this I would have been really disappointed.
+1539,1,A long-winded list of unrealistic and bizzarre platitudes,"Sure, ""War is bad"" (platitude #1). However this message delivered repeatedly is a waste of paper and ink.This sermon focuses on the nature of ""the little man"". This character is so-named because the Author is highly attuned to the nature of this character and blames him for all the ills of mankind. Thus, the little man is selfish, warlike, likes war movies, boxing-matches etc.The didactic nature of this character can be completely contrasted by the natures of real people. The little man doesn't really exist outside of this book. Even the author's experience as a witness to the third reich doesn't justify most of the natures attributed to the little man.Overall, the book is just unreadable. It is simply blase' to read a book which repremands an imaginary character for 125 pages."
+1540,1,Gilmour Timer Model No. 9200 Water Timer,"This is trash. Poorly made.Doesn't work.Spend more money, and get an electronic timer."
+1541,1,Kodak easyshare,"Camera worked great for us for 6 months. Easy to use, decent pictures and good software. The battery life was fine for our use. It quit working at six months and would no longer focus and is now useless. For a six month disposable camera its a little expensive."
+1542,2,Shure Mic,Very pleased with mic. Works as well as advertised and then some. I have just suggested it to a friend whose is looking to buy a mic for his trumpet.
+1543,1,VERY UNHAPPY,"The product was sent to the wrong address. The product was delivered broken. Nobody, including Amazon seems to care or want to help."
+1544,2,c++ programming,A good book in an informal language to take a look at the most importance topics to avoid many common errors during the programming in C++. Widely used in the industry.
+1545,2,"Good reading for every level, excellent guide for advanced r","Written by old, inexact, but still elegant language. Describes techniques and approaches one can never find anywhere else. Hard to follow. Extatic to reproduce by your own."
+1546,1,Food processor,"It has nothing to do with Kitchen Aid, it is a good processor, but it lacks adequate cutting components so that everything comes out virtually chopped and ground. I mean there is no way to alter the coarseness or finesse of the cuts. Would not have gotten it, had I known it was like that, because I had an old Cuisinart and that was in comparison a work of art and great to use. Furthermore, the recipe book sent along by Kitchen Aid, was meager and a grim example of what I was trying to express all along."
+1547,2,Date Night DVD,"This movie is great, right up there with ""The Hangover""....(which I still think is the funniest movie) Lot of good lines....Tina Fey and Steve Carell are wonderful."
+1548,2,A wonderful read!,Miss Grantham's One True Sin is a seamless story about an ill-fated bargain that turns the lives of two people upside down. Ms. Skinner uses wit and humor to weave a spellbinding story filled with so many lovely moments that it's a pure pleasure to read. My only question is when is the next book coming out?
+1549,1,Where's the rest??,"For THIS kind of money, where are the last TWO books?? (Also the most rarest) To me, this seems like an exorbant amount of cash to pay out for an incomplete series of books!! Even if the last two in the series were included, the price should be more in the neighborhood of $500. to $1000. AT BEST !! I am 65 years old, and have been collecting stuff like this LONG before the internet was even invented, so I think I qualify as somewhat of an expert in these matters.....Take it for what you want...."
+1550,2,Makeup Artists need this book,"This is a great book for makeup artists, probably not great for the makeup junkie consumer. I learned more in this book then I have in all of the makeup classes I have taken over the years. It is a study book more then a read for fun book, every artist needs to read it."
+1551,2,It's the sort of dumb sweet romance warms my heart. :),"It's predictable, it's a tat shallow but it's also entertaining,witty and damn sweet a book to read. Young,beautiful,intelligent,gutsy heroine(the endearing list goes on); Strong, handsome, capable, stubborn hero(the same endearing list goes on). Their tickling relationship,wonderful people around them who worships the heroine because she is just so wonderful, and proper vengeance to those hateful,worthless enemies ... a sure win formula with most of us isn't it? :) Just too good to be true. sigh ."
+1552,1,"Forced to read this worthless book over the summer, for school","I am a senior this year and had to read this worthless offensive book over the summer. For AP English...how about Macbeth, Shakespeare Aristotle ..... instead of this book!!Really this book turned me off and it would never had been bought or read by me if It wasnt mandated reading,I have found better reads on bathroom walls! Hated it!"
+1553,2,Great product,Love these for the race track. You can also wear them with a hat to keep the sun off your head and out of your eyes. Quality is great.
+1554,1,Race-bashing,"Gee. This show makes it look like negroes love fried chicken! Outrageous stereotyping!How is it that reverse racism beats straight out racism?!Race bashing. Revenge? Wow.There is the token ""cool"" white person though.Honestly, ""Mississippi Burning"" is a viable movie about racism in the past. Strong, unlike The Help, which is so repulsive and weak. Liberal Hypocrites enticing one another into self-righteous indignation."
+1555,2,Wonderful collection of stories,"Adam Haslett's book You Are Not a Stranger Here is a wonderful collection of nine short stories. All the stories are built around characters that are lonely and isolated from the normal world. There is a sadness to all nine stories that link them together despite the distinctly different settings, characters and situations. I give this book four stars only because some of the stories are so good that they make the others look mediocre. While none of the nine stories is actually mediocre, the outstanding ones show that Haslett is capable of doing better. Haslett's style of writing reminds me of William Faulkner. Haslett's mastery of prose will surely establish him as one of the best new American writers."
+1556,2,6 Year Old Son's Favorite Bedtime Story,We have read this book at least 200 times. My son loves it and it is a wonderful reminder to me to cherish each day of his childhood...
+1557,2,ONE OF THE FUNNIEST MOVIES OF THE 90'S!,"THIS IS BY FAR MIKE MYER'S BEST MOVIE! DANA CARVEY AND MYERS LIGHT UP THE SCREEN LIKE NO OTHER COUPLE. THE SCRIPT IS BRILLIANT FUNNY AND COMPLETELY ADDICTIVE. WHAT DO I MEAN? AFTER YOU SEE THIS FILM YOU PICK UP LINES LIKE EXSQUEEZE ME? AND BAKING POWDER? GET IT? ANYWAY, GREAT MOVIE AND GREAT CULT-LIKE SCRIPT! MYERS IS A TRUELY GREAT COMIC. BUY THIS MOVIE, YOU DEFINITELY WON'T REGRET IT!"
+1558,2,Execellent Light,"It works well, and isn't really that heavy. Although, I don't know how it compares the one that you have to install manually so that the GBA is backlit..."
+1559,2,Excellent Learning Source for Character Studio 3,This is one book that walks you through in understanding the features of Character Studio 3. A definte Max book to add to your collection! Wish there are more focus books like these around...
+1560,1,don't bother,As a Vietnam vet I was quite disappointed with this book. It appears the author was on drugs while writing it. It's not well written and hard to follow. Save your money and your time.
+1561,2,"Overall, a good cd","This is a pretty good cd with a wide variety of music. The ""Goldrush Suite"" is fun to listen to, as is the Phil Woods excerpt. ""American Sketches"" is played fine, and is written to represent the ethnic background of each of the players. The whole composition of the piece could use a little more sparkle, but the players do it justice. Overall, a good cd, well played, though not outstanding."
+1562,2,Lives Up To The Hype,"I have heard about this guy for years and finally took a listen. Well, worth the time. I love uplifting music that isn't preachy and this one is certainly one of the best I have run across. Well worth having for those who want to stay in the spiritual flow."
+1563,1,Terrifying,"We bought this for our daugher when she was 1 and put it on the proper setting. The first time the head popped up, she screamed in terror. I put in on the 4 month old setting and she played with it a little but overall is still terrified of it. Every once in a while we pull it out to see if she will play with it because I really think it is a neat toy and she just runs screaming from the room. I would give it away if I knew of anyone with a baby but I dont. It seems a shame to let it sit there collecting dust. We had it almost a year befor I even knew that the shapes came out."
+1564,2,best,I used a britta filter for years but I think the pur may work better at removing icky stuff in your water because of the triple filtering
+1565,1,Redundant and Flat,"This is a book that I should have gotten through in 2 days. Yet after 2 weeks I still can't seem to care enough to finish. The subject of the Amber Room is interesting. But the writing and plot are predictable, repetitive and sophomoric at times. The characters are one-dimensional, and there are some odd mistakes that his editor should have caught. (Once inside the closed cave door, how *did* the character manage to redrape the outside chains as to make the entrance still appear locked from the outside? Was the rushing river hundreds of meters or hundreds of feet below the 3 story church veranda? Depends on which page you're on.)Yeah, petty, but I'd rather be scratching my head over am intriguing plot twist, but since there are none, I got bogged down in stuff like that."

+1567,1,Disappointed,"The gears on mine stripped when a spade bit jammed...sounded like nylon teeth skipping. This is not a rugged tool. The ""keyless"" chuck should also be called a ""gripless"" chuck."
+1568,1,worse than original apple earphones,Very dissapointed with these. No bass... Not comfortable. Not good value even at the $30 price!
+1569,1,Not as described,"This is a 5 flavor assortment, not the 10 flavor assortment. If your looking for the 10 flavor assortment as I was, DO NOT ORDER THIS!!! False advertising..."
+1570,1,Not useful at all,"I used this book in a graduate level course and it is sad that even in the 6th edition in 2008, this book continues to be outdated and out of sync with real world staffing. Many times, I found it hard to follow and the structure is odd. I agree with some of the other reviews that this book needs to be more updated with real world ideas, experiences and strategies."
+1571,2,Best Self Hypnosis Book Ever..............,"-Ya I can say that.You will never find this kind of book on self hypnosis.There is a very brief introduction about Self-Hypnosis.Then 23 Scripts are given on different situation of life to work on.Each script ends in about 30 minutes.Author suggests us to record these scripts in our own voice & listen to them according to our need.I think this is a best idea for Self Hypnosis.Each Script starts with relaxation then Visualisation & then suggestion.This is Great,like using the power of your own voice for your better life.I was wondering Why I didnt got this idea before?"
+1572,2,A Comforting Book to GIVE or RECEIVE,"I had received this book from some caring vet friends after my beautiful, 14 yo dog passed away. I was devastated over losing my wonderful mixed breed boy and I miss him terribly. The book is a quick, comforting read that you will look at over and over again as it will make you cry, smile, and always appreciate the MAGICAL GIFTS THAT DOGS ARE TO US. I have now sent a copy to a friend who lost her dog recently as I appreciated receiving it."
+1573,1,Offensive,"If you are like me and love Hellboy, avoid this at all costs. The only two harmless and humorous stories are by Mignola himself and are quite good. They may make this worthwhile for a completist. However, the rest is complete filth and definitely X-rated. This book is rife with scenes of rape, molestation, excremet eating, and Adolf Hitler as a pal all played for laughs. I felt dirty just for reading it. Absolutely NOT in the true vein of mignola's ""Hellboy."""

+1576,1,A big disappointment after a good first album,"Oh deary, deary me! This album is not very good at all. With annoying repetitive songs and uninspiring, dull lyrics, this album is a travesty from start to finish. I am sorry to have to say this about such a popular band, but this album SUCKS!"

+1579,1,Complicated!,"Setup for cable is quick and easy through your cable box. However, picture quality during dvd play is terrible due to constant vertical waves, but does not occur when you're watching cable television run through the player. Unlike my previous Samsung dvd/vcr player, you have to add the 3-outlet video component cables PLUS a pair of audio cables to get decent a/v from dvds. Then you have to remember to switch back to ""tv"" component to watch cable tv. Has an internal clock for recording, but no clock display. Item is new, not remanufactured. On the plus side, dvds that ""skipped"" on my previous dvd/vcr player do NOT skip on the Panasonic."
+1580,1,Too bad no negative stars,"Absolutely AWFUL software. Don't buy it. It conflicts with DHCP addressing on networks, wreaks havoc with networking (esp. wireless) software on Windows, and requires an endless amount of tweaking to get Outlook to work correctly. There is also no real support for the software from Symantec, and if you call your ISP to complain that your email doesn't work, they'll say, ""Oh, you're using Internet Seurity, sorry we have many problems with that and don't support it..."" About the only decent thing that comes with it is a neat Viusal Tracker for WHOISing would be attackers. But, from what I hear, there isn't a whole lot a hacker has to do to get past this useless piece of software. So a would-be hacker is probably already a has-done hacker..."
+1581,1,bruno: Vulgar and Stupid,"The review at the top of bruno says it's ""funnier than Borat."" The writer Owen Gleiberman should never be allowed to write another review ever again. This isn't funnier than Borat, not by a long shot. The humor here seems forced and labored. Sasha Baron Cohen is trying way too hard. Borat was politically incorrect, offensive and funny. Bruno was offensive and just plain stupid. 30 minutes into the film I couldn't watch anymore and felt the need to turn if off."
+1582,2,Necessary if you are going in to a medical field,"This was suggested to me by an A&P teacher, as a necessity of anyone going to Nursing school, or anyone in the medical field. Older version are cheaper, but have same content so don't bother getting a new more expensive version."

+1586,1,Not,this movie was not what I expected. I found it to be more confusing than entertaining. Can't win them all
+1587,2,Challenging,"I have the Kana version. Romaji is not used. All words are defined in English. Naratives are in Kana and Kanji. Kanji the first few times are explained in Kana. Many proper nouns, if not all, are in Kanji. The Exercises often use vocabulary from the first book, so if you haven't memorized this earlier Vocabulary, one can waste time looking for definitions. This takes away from the learning process. I would prefer the glossery include the prior Book(s) vocabulary (that is, book II including both glosseries I and II, combined. The subject matter is sufficiently diverse. At times in the exercises they include a word that is simular to one in the story but may not unrelated to the story. A learning plus. It is quite a challenge to read 3 foreign sylabets, learn new vocabulary, and new grammar. A good teacher can make the difference."
+1588,2,Who's Crazy Anyway,"I wish there was such a book when I was working in the mental health field. Joan Mazza's survey of psychotherapy covers in brief just about every area of a wide topic,and the extensive (30 pages) bibliography then directs the reader to more comprehensive treatments. This is a book for the 21st century: Ms. Mazza clearly lists patient's rights and responsibilities, stressing the importance of personal empowerment, over ""victimology"", i.e. passive surrender to mental health experts. I highly reccommend this book to anyone actively seeking direction for their own mental health work. If anything, the wide array of possibilities can be mind-boggling; I found it inspiring."

+1591,1,Can I give less than a star?,"You must be joking! I'm reading these prior reviews, and they are so one-sided for or against this title. I went ahead and bought it along with another title on ""How to Put the Two Together"" thinking at least one of these two books should have something to help me improve. This one ""book"" I must say is a complete waste of money. Am I missing something here?"
+1592,2,flip me over,"Thomas Moore broke the mold when he wrote this one!...Moore took me everywhere inside myself, and drove me to the core of my soul. Everything that i had origionally thought about life, was turned inside out, upside down. But it was as if all these ideas were already seeds in me, yet they had been covered in a lot of petty, crappy, useless things. My soul was watered and i am now a child again. Unlearning all that i have been taught and reviewing all that was origionally in me! THis book was hard to understand at times, but after you read it over and over....it hits you like a brick! I recommend this book to anyone, and everyone."
+1593,1,Disgusting SMUT!!,"Although this book is interesting in a historical context, the sex and inappropriate portions far outweigh the good parts of the book. I felt like I needed to go wash my eyes out after reading part of this book. Filthy!"

She much prefers the American Girl baby / dolls, as do I."

+1599,1,Not a good first Kakuro book . . .,"I bought this as my first Kakuro book and found it disappointing because it doesn't have graduated levels of difficulty. Nothing on the cover or on the inside text indicates it isn't appropriate for beginners, but only after I've done 20+ ""medium"" puzzles in other books, am I finding I'm ready for Gordon's book. I find the cells a little small, but the paper quality is good for erasing."
+1600,2,This is a wicked book! But I was wondering...,"Hello everbody! I'm 16 years old and love the CWG searies! I was wondering, however how the human body could live forever? I don't dispute it exept for the fact that in book two God says that every thing goes in cycles: life, death ect. How can these two statements co-enside? Beside things like that that I don't understand , theese books are great! I'd recomend them to anybody, young and old! P.S. Neale said that Book 3 will be published in September of '98."
+1601,1,The problem with multiple storylines,"The sentences in this book are beautiful, the paragraphs dense and packed with expression, and the chapters long and self-contained...With all this, the novel manages to be an utter failure. There are two major problems. First, the main plot line of the novel, the story being told, is rambling and long-winded, stylistically correct, and fantastically dull. I wanted to give up that part of the book, and only read the more contemporary of the storylines, which moves at a faster clip. The issue is that the more contemporary of the storylines (which is only adequate) is maybe 30% of the novel...when 70% of the novel is boring you to tears, that's bad enough. Second, the characters are forgettable. I would use more damning language, but they're not worth it..just forgettable. There's no defining characteristic, ZERO personality, and no life. So, it's a tremendously well written book, but a complete waste of time."
+1602,1,bad,I would love to give a review but am unbale to because i have not recieved my book as scheduled and have contacted the seller to try and get the book tracked
+1603,2,It actually works and that's a surprise,"With a long history of many failed attempts at IP wireless cams, Linksys creates what others could not; one that works.Configuration with WEP was pretty easy. It's a little temperamental with distance compared to the tolerances of other G devices, but it works. It does not react well to low light levels and tries to compensate via its own gain. If you are using this in a home without AMPLE light, expect a grainy picture.Frame rate is about 20FPS and is annoying. The security feature works. It senses movement and mails a captured video file. With only 4 seconds at the medium setting, the video images were over 500Kb. This is not for a dial-up AOL user.There is a remote viewing option that lets you use their web servers to hit your cam from anywhere. Of course expect to pay about $40 for two years access."
+1604,1,BAD reception & TERRIBLE sound quality,"The FM tuner is horrible. Most stations have static. If you move around you get more static. TOO MUCH STATIC. I got this for outdoor activities NOT sitting activites. The AM tuner is better than FM. TV tuner is decent, the weather tuner is horrible. Panasonic RF-SW50 has 10 times better reception than this JUNK. At first I thought it was Sony's short and thin headphone(it works as an antenna), I tried using 3 other headphones and the reception is still [terrible]!The SOUND QUALITY IS TERRIBLE. My mom's 10 year old Aiwa walkman got way better sound than this. This Sony SRF-M37V has the worst sound quality I've heard in my life. BR>Overall this radio is [no good], DON'T BUY IT!"
+1605,2,Time keeps on ticking,"The metronome, the passage of time. The dying animal, in the form of a libertine professor, obsessed with sex, passionate about art. The book is a novella more than an novel -- focused, sometimes rambling -- oddly enough in the plot sequences, and sometimes gripping -- mostly in long expositions about free love or morality. There are some gems here, some thuddings. The plot is outrageously predictable and mundane but we forgive the old man when his language soars. The ending feels like Roth never quite new how to end it, but this is a problem originating in the beginning, he sets up an overwhelming obsession with C. but the it peters out, and we don't feel the main character is driven by it, thus to turn the story on this point, at the end, is lacking. I disagree with the reviewer who suggested this is required reading -- it's like Ford's short stories, momentary, sometimes solid, sparking in moments. A flame burns brighter and more consistently in other works by both authors."
+1606,2,This is way too easy!,"I bought the Linksys BEFW11S4 Wireless 4-Port Cable/DSL Router online from amazon.com. ... It comes with an instruction leaflet (folds out like a map) and a startup CD. To illustrate how easy it is to install, I never used the CD at ALL. It took me about 15 minutes to install (using the leaflet as a guide) on my primary computer, which already has a NIC Card for my cable modem. Easy Web Interface to configure, saved setting, and done. It took me another 15 minutes to setup my second computer (laptop) with a wireless card. All I had to do is enter my network name from the Primary computer setup and BAM...I was cruising all over the house, back porch, yard. Signal strength stayed at ""excellent"" where ever I went. This is a winner...now I don't have to wrestle with the kids to get online! 2000 square foot Raised Ranch, Primary Computer with Router sits on bottom level of the house, Router sits at desktop level..works like a charm."
+1607,1,Not for serious use,"I admit, I was uneducated and unaware how to use a speed bag prior to buying this setup. The mounting bracket is fine, though it cannot be adjusted. However, the plastic swivel that came with the kit was near useless, as the bag was very slow to react. After spending $20 on a metal swivel, the performance greatly increased. However, it did not equate to the quality and response of the bag at my local gym, so I replaced the bag with a higher grade bag. Now it functions just fine, after dropping $60 in replacement parts. All-in-all, this is definitely a beginner bag, but you outgrow it within a week. Be wise and spend the extra money in the beginning and get a real kit. After all, I was reminded that you get what you pay for."
+1608,2,Learning to like NASCAR through reading,"I didn't know what to expect when I picked up this ebook. Sharyn McCrumb is a very good storyteller. The book is a human interest tome and has many anecdotes and facts that I enjoyed. I know what NASCAR is and have a superficial knowledge of the sport but the author really brought it home. I don't think I'll look at it the same way any more. The stories involving the characters are quite good. I like books that have happy endings and when they are educational, humorous, interesting, and well written...bravo to the author. I will be buying more of her books now. I think people who don't follow NASCAR may well enjoy it as much or more than those who do."
+1609,2,WELL WRITTEN AND GOOD TEXT,"I have read a great many books in my 17 years, more than normal according to some, but the Great Alta books have drawn me back to them time and time again. Any book that I read more than once has to be a good book."
+1610,1,Napoleon Dynamite - 002-4607518-3456042,"This indie favorite follows Napoleon Dynamite (Jon Heder), a quirky, ninja-loving teenager growing up in the far reaches of Idaho. Napoleon's life gets complicated when his shady Uncle Rico (John Gries) shows up, a shy girl (Tina Majorino) starts showing him some attention and his best friend Pedro (Efren Ramirez) decides to run for school president. Nominated for a Grand Jury Prize at Sundance in 2004."
+1611,2,Great crate at a great price!,"I just received this crate and am so pleased. It took me less then a minute to set up and it is very sturdy. I have a 3 year old APBT mix that has recently started chewing up my kids toys so to avoid frustration and possible vet bills from obstructions, I decided to crate her again. The crate is much bigger than I imagined (which is good). She weighs 55lbs but is very short and stocky. She can easily stand up and turn around with plenty of room.I am purchasing another crate as we speak for my 1.5 year old male (who taught the 3 year old how to chew...) because his soft crate is getting a little small for him. I can't see paying twice as much at the pet supply chains.My two crate well so I can't say how the crate would hold up against a dog with severe seperation anxiety, but the crate seems sturdy enough for that. Just inspect it thoroughly to make sure all points are welded tight and everything is locked into place."
+1612,1,So Biased,"Even the democrat movie critics admit that this ""thing"" if you can call it that...is filth and pure exageration."
+1613,2,Excellent! I've been waiting for this for months!,I had a chance to catch these guys at a small club in Omaha and bought their three track ep...I loved it and couldn't wait until the album was complete. It definitely was worth the wait! I hope they gain the attention they deserve.
+1614,1,echhhh,Please!!! don't buy this-I did and sold it back 2 days later-NOTHING like the previous series-the only high point is Jamie Lee-and thats for only about 10 minutes
+1615,1,I honesty didn't get this movie,"I'm 46. Grew up with the Muppets. I love them. I didn't like this movie and honestly I don't understand what other people like about it. It's not a good movie at all. The only thing it has going for it is nostalgia. As a movie the story is weak, the music numbers with minor exceptions are super flat. I went in expecting awesome from all the hype. I would have been happy if it was just so-so but for me it was just bad. Bad writing, bad story, bad music. Nothing.Maybe I'll watch it again in 10 years and change my opinion. I want to be believe though that rather, all the people that like it now will watch in again in 10 years and wonder what they were thinking."
+1616,1,Not now. Not ever.,"I will not support this abomination with my money. I will not pay to see one of my favorite childhood influences slowly destroyed and degraded by a deranged egomaniac just so I can see it on Blu-Ray. For me, the original theatrical trilogy (New Hope, Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi) is the Alpha and Omega of Star Wars. My wife feels the same way, which is partially why I chose to spend my life with her.My only hope at this point is that one day soon George Lucas will die, and be unable to do any more harm to his only contribution to history. After his demise, I look forward to the re-release of the untainted theatrical versions on whatever the newest technology is of the day."
+1617,2,Great for the Herbalist/Pagan,"This book gives a great base for the Spiritualist who is interested in the use of the ""green"" in their religious practice. I was relieved to find a book that was more Earth oriented rather than focusing on commercialized ritualism, although some of the rituals seemed a little over done for a beginner to practice easily.As some of the other reviewers pointed out, there could have been more depth to some of the sections and others were padded with repeated information. Even so, I would recommend this one to anyone interested in learning more about the different variations of the Craft."
+1618,1,Lying and preferring the rich to the poor,"are not part of the gospel of Jesus Christ. That so many think that Bush is a man of god shows how little the gospels are actually read. Jesus had only disdain for the rich and endless compassion for the poor and marginalized. Yet Bush's tax cuts are mostly for the rich and his drug program for seniors greatly aids big pharma. And Bush lied us into the war in Iraq and continues to lie every time he says the war there makes this country safer, when our own national intelligence estimates show that it does not.Shame, Mr Bush."
+1619,2,"A creative, yet believable book.","In this great piece of literature, a great writing team puts forth an excellent and complex storyline.Both authors consummate their usage of Star Trek lore, their own creative ideas, and their ability to replicate each character's individuality.The story begins as three separate plots. The first takes place in the mid-twentyfirst century, and describes how Zephram Cochrane used his warp drive to foil, and escape from the earth-dominating Optimum Movement. The second outlines Kirk's discovery of Cohrane himself on a barren planet. The third describes how the Enterprise-D discovers an interesting artifact from one of their most dangerous enemies.These plots are combined ingeniously and unexpectedly. In order to find out how though, you have to read the book. I give it a 9.which as the story progresses, slowly and steadily intertwine.The plot is slow to develop, but it is interesting to read about"
+1620,2,Love it!,I have been looking for a while for a piece that would match my dining room furniture. This bar is perfect. Color is darker than what shows in the picture (more like a dark espresso) which works for me. It was actually easy to put together and it came very nicely packaged.
+1621,1,Reading at night,"After all the effort to create the Kindle, WHY IS THERE NO BACKLIGHT ON THE SCREEN SO YOU CAN READ WITHOUT AMBIENT LIGHT???????"
+1622,2,The first 5 or so issues of the comic book.,"The first 5 or so issues of the comic book, explaining the mystery of Linda Danvers/Supergirl. This is not the movie novelization or the movie adaptation made by DC with the release of all DC movies, and it has very little, if anything to do with the movie; even the costume changed a little. All in all, it is a good book provided you like Supergirl comics, and you want to read the first issues compiled in a paperback cover."
+1623,1,"Ja, you call this clapping back?","This album is weak. Em, 50, Dre, Daz, DMX, Obie Trice have murdered Ja. Time to rap it up Ja, every album since V.V.V has been average at best. I'll give Hussein Fatal credit, he brings the album score up a little bit, but the rest of Murderinc. can't flow for sh#t. All Ja can do is say f#@k Em, Dre, and 50??!! G-Unit and Shady should be laughing at this weak ass diss!!! We goin clap back we goin clap back we goin clap back? Fu$$in stupid"
+1624,1,Do not be hoaxed by the media hype!!!,"I loved her cover picture on CD. However, her music is not really world class. Well, I do strongly recommend to listen before you buy. Otherwise you will be sorry. I have seen her on T.V when I was in Germany,Munchen. Well, her live performance was also not that impressive. anyhow, time will tell if she is realy talanted or something else."
+1625,1,not that good,"Unless you already know the stuff, this book wont help out much. If you already do know the basics, there are better ways to prepare for the CCNA."
+1626,2,"Good book, won't let you get bored, Information for success across countries","Really like it. It has several true stories, perception of people from different culture. It lets you understand the meaning of business and success for different countries. It is a book for those who have to work across cultures and countries."
+1627,1,Sounds like a school orchestra.,"I'm lucky, i paid 1$ for this CD in a 1 dollar store. It's bizarre to hear cheap synthetisers and conventional battery in an album with Orchestra in the title."
+1628,2,What really goes on...,It seems there are really colorful characters behind the beginning of those liquors brands which sit on everybodies shelf.Nice to know what people are really like versus the image put forth by PR.
+1629,2,The best bedtime toy,"We first learned about this toy when our baby was in the hospital. We attached it to his crib and he loved it. He loved it so much that we went and got one for him. Whenever he is upset we just have to turn it on and he calms right down. It has different settings so they either have something to see, listen to or both. It is really great for a young baby.I do not think that any nursery should be without this toy."
+1630,1,DESCRIPTION IS INCORRECT!!,This is not the Brazillian Cast Recording of Phantom of the Opera (I bought it and found this out at my expense) such an official soundtrack doesnt currently exist!The tracks on this are actually sung in English by people with foreign accents (Brazillian perhaps...)...Don't waste your money!
+1631,2,MANN Filter,This filter was an exact fit and seems to be made well. I replaced a MANN filter that was existing in the car when I bought it and that one was not wrecked like some other filter brands I have used. Recommended and the price cannot be beat
+1632,1,Well known in France for not being reliable,Mr Brisard has tried to give the impression that he was senior in French intelligence. It is quite well known though that he was in the media department of Vivendi.He got notice from his first book but people saw he was not reliable when his losses in the courts made him move from France to Switzerland. Then we saw that further losses in the courts caused him to have to wind up there as well.As to this book it is second rate. The facts are not there and as with his other book it is not possible to tell what is true and is not. I looked into this book due to the notoriety of Brisard and found he has not made a change for the better.
+1633,2,Touching,TouchingGreat story line and messages for all people.Must see for people in leadership positions.Make more like this
+1634,2,an engaging read for students and non-native speakers alike,"This book offers an engaging way for students as well as proficient, but non-native speakers of English to grasp the subtle meaning of new words by putting them into context. It is a big plus for the non-native speaker or 8-12 year old if they can read along with an adult or native-speaker so they do not always have to refer to the dictionary. A very good teaching resource for parents and teachers alike."
+1635,2,Still intact!,"Great Frisbee and the dog loves it! Usually my labs will rip through a typical Frisbee and tear it to shreds; not this one though! It doesn't have the same 'float' as some of the lighter Frisbees and I'm trying to train myself to throw it better so my retriever can catch it before it hits the ground - we are slowly making progress! I'm hoping he gets good at it so he will learn to catch ducks out of the sky the same way. Heck, since this Frisbee has a little more heft to it, maybe it will prepare him to catch geese out of mid-air too!It does appear as though rover loses sight of the Frisbee in flight sometimes - i'm not sure if that's because it is white and more difficult to see when looking up at the sky, or if it's just because he is a rookie... time will tell. In any event, I'm happy with the purchase!"
+1636,1,Worst movie EVER!,"This movie is a piece of junk. The Animation is poor (almost as bad as the animation from the originial Vampire Hunter D), the voice acting was horrible, and the plot... well, there was no plot. It was 80 min of pure [stuff]. I had to give this movie 1 star because there is no option for no stars. As a matter of fact, this movie owes me a star."
+1637,2,Devilishly Good,"Well researched and written -- with charm, wit, and just the right degree of irreverence, I have only a couple of negatives to note. First, Robert Masello doesn't sufficiently discuss key aspects of what he calls ""Black Magic and Sorcery"" -- e.g., the Black Mass. Conversely, Mr. Masello devotes far too much space (at least 20% of the book) to what he entitles ""Fate and the Future,"" which deals with palmistry and other such practices that have little or nothing to do with ""hell raising."" Still, I enjoyed this book and do indeed recommend it."
+1638,2,Watch is wonderful,"I ordered this watch on the 1st of October and it arrived on the 3rd. The watch works as the description says. I still haven't figured out how to adjust the metal band but I've only had it for two hours!As for the watch itself, it has many features and the setup is user friendly. I'm impressed with the design and I enjoy the four alarm feature. I would buy another one of these if this one ever breaks."
+1639,1,Not Very Good,"I'll keep this short. I like all of David A. McIntee other Dr. Who books, but this was just plain boring. Part of the problem is that the preceding book in the series, Unnatural History, was fabulous. The ""surprise ending"" came out of nowhere with no real reason why. It's one of those books that you ""must"" buy but wish you hadn't. Sorry, David."
+1640,1,Signs & Yawns,"The worst movie I've ever seen. I was hoping that Stellan Skaarsgard would take off the yellow suit and burn it, but he didn't. He did however, finally take it off. I wish I never bought it."
+1641,2,A novel with substance,"After her first night at an English boarding school, Charlotte wakes up to learn that she is no longer in her own body, but that of another girl named Clare in 1919, whose father is fighting in The Great War.Aimed at 10-year-old readers, according to its publisher, Charlotte Sometimes is surprisingly mature, not just in content but in writing style as well. Any reader can easily see that this is a novel with substance, and that author Penelope Farmer had a great deal of respect for her audience's intelligence, regardless of their age. Charlotte Sometimes can make any reader's heart ache, not with sappy sentimentality (because it does not need to rely on such element), but because its author wrote with a kind of frankness and honesty that we do not usually find in many of today's juvenile and YA novels."
+1642,1,Life of Pi,"Just couldn't get into this book, and only read the first part of it and knew that it would be a struggle to finish."
+1643,2,Amazing Talent,"As usual, Gene Bertoncini delivers stellar performances. He plays with remarkable sensitivity, and his arrangements reveal an unparalleled grasp of jazz harmony. With Gene, every chord is an adventure, a profound musical statement to be savored."
+1644,1,"Good Work, but dated.","This would have been an excellent survey of American poets thirty years ago. But now it's a little bit dated. First, it does not contain any American poets since then. Second, it seems to have been written before the revolution in recent decades which brought some previously ignored poets of high caliber, but not white male enough to fame. For instance, Langston Hughes is clearly one of America's major poets, who had been around for decades before this book was published, but it includes nothing about him. The work that is included is clearly excellent, but there are plenty of better anthologies available now."
+1645,1,Stop getting hot before a year was over,"I bought this in Jan 2012, and in Sept or October is stopped working properly. I spent extra money on this so that I could keep it for a longer time. I loved the features on it and how easy it is to clean. But the oil will not heat up anymore. Ive had it sitting for 30 minutes or more and the oil will not heat up! Do Not buy product. I loved it until it stopped working. Very disappointed!"
+1646,1,OVER RATED SnoozeFest,"I dont know what the critical mass thought was so appealing about this movie. Even being such a huge fan of the Coen Brothers, this movie was far from oscar worthy material. It lagged so long, was as PREDICTABLE as they come, and ultimately, STUMBLED where it SHOULD have KICKED you in the face. There's no ""Blood Simple"" here, folks. Masked in contrived subtleties, yet nowhere near as gripping and enjoyable as ""Fargo."" And a complete ""letdown"" of an ending. The actor portraying the killer IS deserving of some praise for his menacing work, but the rest of the cast seemed as if they were being ""dragged"" through this mess like this particular viewer was."
+1647,1,go for the more expensive forehead scanning thermometer!,"i could not get this thing to read the correct temperature on me, much less my baby . . . not too comforting when you're wondering if your baby has a fever or not. no matter what angle i had the thermometer at it always read 96.7, on me and my baby. go for the slightly more expensive forehead scanning thermometer (target doesn't carry it but babies r us does), it's super fast and much more accurate."
+1648,2,NOT A FIVE STAR COVER!,"so i rated this as 5 stars when i first bought it. i have changed my mind to a 1 star. after a few months, this cover has matted down, the seat area folds up under me, the whole thing moves around everytime i get in and out so it will NOT stay in place. its not comfortable at all. i would recommend this product to noone, even if you are low on money."
+1649,1,"Hello, GOODBYE!!!!","Hardly a page turner, and most assuredly not the ""definitive"" Beatles biography. Many, many inexcusable errors, anyone interested enough to tackle this long, plodding book would know. If you are reading this, I am guessing you have already read much better books on ""the boys""."
+1650,1,not very good,"I'm in the cake decoration business, and I've tried to use it a couple of time, and the past gum get stuck, the form it is suppose to show is not there."
+1651,2,Best Overall Soilwork Album to Date.,"Not only is there not a bad song on the entire album, but there are some real gems to be heard here. Figure Number Five, Light the Torch, Departure Plan, Distortion Sleep and Downfall 24 are all amazing songs. This album beats out Natural Born Chaos not only because of the number of great songs on it, but because, as mentioned earlier, there isn't a single bad song on it. However, this isn't the most amazing stuff I've ever heard, so it gets 4/5 stars."
+1652,2,Wonderful for baby,"I have a 3 month old son, and he loves this book. He loves the bright illustrations and pages (I can tell from the intense staring and drooling!). It is a quick read, and takes less than 5 minutes to get through, which is perfect for his very short attention span. It introduces him to letters in a fun and bright way as well. It may not be the full version, but it's the perfect length for a baby."
+1653,1,Definitely a Rental,"Simply put, this movie shames the Dragonball Z genre.This movie has a very poor plot, uninspiring music, lacks drama or emotion, and could be entertaining to only the youngest of children at best.Avoid this film and, perhaps, send a message to funimation to stop putting out garbage."
+1654,1,piece of crap,"The stopwatch works. Seems accurate anyway. But I can't set the time of day on this thing. I've done exactly what the instructions are telling me. I can switch between hours and minutes but I can't select anything to make the watch begin. I really think there is something wrong with the watch. I guess it doesn't matter, but the watch should work."
+1655,1,Doesn't work,"The only reason I got this ""docking station"" is to charge the device which it does not do. It does not have a plug on the bottom of the docking station to put into the charging port of the PSP...it has two little pins that are supposed to touch the positive and negative parts of the PSP charging port. After hours of trying there is no way to line these up properly.Even if I could get them to line up once in a while, it would be a balancing act that would take forever to line up each time. This is NOT what I call plug and play.If you just want to use the sync cable, then buy this relatively cheap dock. If you plan on actually using the docking part, look elsewhere."
+1656,2,5 Stars all the way!,The three earlier reviews pretty much say it all. I agree 100% and wanted to add another 5 star rating.
+1657,2,Inspiring book,"Started a bit slow but I was quickly engrossed in the life story of the Hamlins and the women they have helped. How anyone can totally dedicate their lives to helping others is nothing short of amazing, a pity there aren't more people like them. Loved the book and really keen to see some of the documentaries mentioned in the book, there is one ""A Walk to Beautiful"" available for free viewing on Youtube if anyone is looking to do the same."
+1658,2,AN AMERICAN CLASSIC,THIS MOVIE IS A CLASSIC AND SHOULD BE MADE REQUIRED VIEWING FOR ALL SCHOOLS TO GIVBE A LESSON ON PERSEVERANCE HOPE FINALLY FULFILLED. THIS IS ANOTHER MOVIE THAT I WOULD RECOMMEND TO ANYONE
+1659,2,okay so far,"Just got back from five days to Evolution valley and back. The tent is reasonably roomy for two, with room to sit up at the high point. We had very little rain. We stayed dry inside, there was some condensation on the inside of the fly, and some on the tent, but not a lot. My only complaint is that they say it is best to use 4 guy lines and they only provide two."
+1660,1,Junk,"Wow! I guess I should feel lucky. My MVR650 didn't start eating tapes until months after I bought it. Well, not eating them outright, anyway. It *always* chewed on them a bit. From the beginning fast forwarding would scrape the oxide off the tape (that section would never be watchable again) but it didn't actually start refusing to release the tape for several months. Shutting itself off as soon as you inserted a tape didn't start for months either along with ejecting that cassette once you turned it back on. Oh, but I said it wouldn't release the tape, didn't I? Well it would eject the *cassette*, but that doesn't mean it would release the *tape*.I lived with this piece of junk so long because it is hard to find a VCR these days narrow enough to fit on my shelf. Everyone seems to have gone to those 17 inch behemoths."
+1661,2,Just a short message!,"Sorry, my English is not as good as my German! After having reviewed some of the comments I get the feeling that some American friends are used to read short and simple sentences! German language is famous for the complicated structure and long sentences. It is wonderful to read this book in German esp. because of the use of language. I can imagine that the English translation could never reflect this beauty."
+1662,1,Lots of Plugs,"If you enjoy reading novels that plug lots of products and brand names, you will love this novel. The following products and brand names were plugged in this novel: Nike, Saran Wrap, Nextel, Coleman, Four Seasons Hotel, Dilly Bar, Panasonic, Visa, Batman, Cessna, Denny's, Dodge Ram, Texaco, Safeway, Breyers, IGA, Coke, HBO, CNN, Burgar King, Reebok, Citgo, Pepsi-Cola, Junior Mints, Sears, Subaru, Saturn, Cadillac, MG, Chevrolet, Google, Joe Boxers, Motorola, Slurpee, 7-11, Corvette, Twinkies, Altoids, and Doritos. (Not to mention: At least 15 major label recording artists were plugged.)Coleman received the most plugs (I counted 16).Nike was plugged at least 9 times. In my eyes, all these plugs cheapen the novel. I am curious to know how much money SK brought in through these plugs. And does he feel that it was worth it?"
+1663,2,Works well for thick hair if you have the time...,"I have really thick shoulder length hair. I only wash my hair twice a week and once my hair is dry and straightened, I don't need to do a thing with it. This product works really well for me as long as I have the time to spare. I takes me at least 30 or 40 minutes to dry and straighten my hair once it has been towel dried. I bought this product because I didn't want to spend the money for more expensive similar items. I think that for the price....the infiniti is well worth it."
+1664,1,Neglectable,Gal Costa seems to have lost her direction in music due both to her repertoire choice and to her way of vocalizing. Such low keys for a singer who does not have low power is a crime. Inexpressive arrangements.
+1665,1,Ordered DVD received VHS tape,"I ordered a DVD tape and received a VHS tape. This makes it difficult to utilize for the class I am facilitating. It frustrated me so much I have not researched how to return it and have this error corrected. It would be great to get the DVD first and then I will return the VHS.Can you help me?Thank you,Magtcc"
+1666,2,Eventually Measures Up ...,"While I wanted to LOVE this CD - I think Clay is the greatest example of the American ""Can Do"" philosophy, and a decent human being to boot - I was disappointed when I first listened. Other than ""This is the Night,"" the only track to wow me was ""I Survived You."" But, since I wanted to love it, and I had paid good money for the thing, I kept listening ... Then I fell - and I mean HARD! ... I DO love this CD ... No, it is not the greatest musical production ever (in fact, I think it is OVERproduced ... Clay's voice sings for itself - it needs less help, not more); but it is a fine start to a career that will cross many medias - (I would love to see Aiken on Broadway, Mr. Cowell!) and we will watch with wonder at the good this great man will do with his life and his time of fame. He is a performer worth supporting and encouraging ... You go Clay!"
+1667,1,yes total waste of money,"This is the second HP printer I bought and frankly the only reason I tried this printer was because of the network connectivity. I haven't written many reviews before, but this product is soo bad that I had to add to the list of angry customers. Getting the printer to load 1 piece of paper is a nightmare. Now i get paper jam warnings when there is no paper in the bloody machine. Anyone see office space? yeah after I get my new Canon printer, i will re-enact that scene. perhaps i should record it and send it to HP?"
+1668,1,Hiroshima,it is the most boring book i have ever read! it is a long news paper article! it goes by sooo slow! if it wasnt for the test i have on it wed. i would of dropped it the first 5 pages! it only gets slower!
+1669,1,Broke 1st use,The connection was very hard to fit into the Nintendo and then it broke the first time trying to remove it. Also it looked nothing like the picture. Very cheaply made and bright orange.
+1670,1,Better than a root canal,"I bought the first three books of this series, due to a recommendation of a friend. Big mistake. Enough people have already described the story already, so I won't bother. The basic idea was good, but the writing is extremely sophomoric to the point of amateurish. The characters are one dimensional and the dialog is childish. The villain's name is Darken Rahl, because Darth Vader was already taken. What little action here was rather predictable, as was the ""surprise"" ending. While I did enjoy the S & M part of the book, I still cannot recommend this to anyone."
+1671,2,Movie,Awesome movie. Clint is great!!! I would refer this movie for all my family and friends. Hits home in so many ways
+1672,2,Amazing Lodges ... amazing book,"Wonderful content and photos ... I've lived and worked in Yellowstone for 20 years and had never seen the ""once approved, never built"" drawing of the Old Faithful Inn. have been to many of the ""lodges"" featured, and will use the book as inspiration to visit a few more! I've scooped up several for gift giving this holiday season."
+1673,2,Fast & New!,"This book is brand new, packaged well and a lot less than what I would have paid for at the school bookstore, it also was delivered super quickly! The estimated date made me think I would be pulling an all-nighter to read it right before class but it got here 3 days early!! I'm super happy with it and I'm glad I can trust amazon, especially since I'm a poor college student with delusional teachers."
+1674,2,An Excellent Translation of an Excellent Game,"The first time I saw Resident Evil 2, I was at a friend's house. He owned the original Playstation version of the game. I was completely amazed by the depth of its story and graphics. I thought that the Nintendo 64 was not capable of running the video and other graphic effects. Being an N64 owner myself, I was disappointed that I would never get to play this game at home. Then, Resident Evil 2 came out for the N64. It is an excellent translation of the Playstation version, and then some. The graphics are crisper on the Nintendo, the sound is better, and there is absolutely no loading time. The story is all there, as well as all the original characters. Capcom took one of the best games around and made it ten times better."
+1675,1,Not quite there yet,"This will be a great ladder a couple revisions from now. I have an issue with the link arms hitting one of the screws in the frame, but Werner is sending me a kit to install redesigned link arms. Good for them, having that on hand. There is another issue in that because of the way my ceiling is (which I don't think is too unusual), the ladder frame doesn't meet up with the ceiling - it is installed a couple of inches above the ceiling, thus leaving a gap that I still have to figure out how to fill. Also, when compressing the gas struts during installation, their gear mechanism slipped off of the teeth so badly that it took probably 20 tries to get the struts fully compressed.I spoke with Werner and they indicated that this is a new product for them and as a result they are continually improving the quality. They have a new version coming out in a couple of months that will address some of the aforementioned issues."
+1676,2,Excellent Jazz,"This CD has rapidly become one of my favorites. Herbie and company succeed masterfully at fulfilling the ""standard"" potential of these popular tunes. Very well arranged and performed, and the solos are outstanding!"
+1677,2,A perfect novel!,"With stunning insight, Shepard creates a fictional history of the great filmmaker locating the roots of his mature genius in the forbidden passions of adolescence and young adulthood. One of the most compelling windows into artistic obsession and its erotic impetus I have ever seen. The descriptions of the creative mind at work in the making of Nosferatu the film are an artistic tour de force. His evocation of the transports of youthful love are among the most beautiful ever written! Check out the love letters!"
+1678,1,Limited uses,"I got it as a service award from my company. Glad I didn't spend any money on it. It works as a web cam, or for posting pictures on the web (EBAY etc.), but not great as a camera. The auto turn-off is a pain, because you have to re-select all of your option once it turns off. It also beeps for each option you select. Animals don't like that. Seems to chew up batteries quickly, even when not in use."
+1679,2,Gunga Din,"Lot has been taken out from the one on TV I saw some years ago with R. Kipling on a train in opening of movie. In any event, some parts (a very few) a tad dark, but I expect that in older movies in B&W.; Marvelous acting by all. Wish we could get some action new movies like this classic with good performances and a great story line. Recommend.Cecy Ivie"
+1680,1,A Concept That Falls Flat,"I was so excited for this play to come in. I expected a complex mix of the oppression of Catholic school life and the beautiful poetry of Shakespeare's most famous lovers. Instead we get what is basically the script of Romeo and Juliet with lackluster stage directions and zero characterization. There are glimmers of characters, but we never get more than what we would get in some sort of table read. That's what R&J is, essentially: a table read. I wanted so badly for the characters to blossom and for this play to take over their lives, but instead they read it and are done with it. And so am I. Do yourself a favor and just read Romeo and Juliet."
+1681,1,P&:,I ordered Pride&Prejudice; DVD. The faces were white and the colors looked faded. I returned and requested a replacement. Unfortunately the replacement was the same and I returned.I took out a copy from the library and the same condition exists. I have concluded that the company that converted Pride&Prejudice; from VHS did not have the expertise to accomplish a TRUE copy.I have always had excellent service and do not fault for this purchase. Obviously it is the fault of the distributor.
+1682,2,Very entertaining,"This movie was awesome. The acting was great . Matt Damon and Emily Blunt had great chemistry. It was a suspenseful, fast paced drama with an interesting storyline. Overall, very well done!"
+1683,1,Step by Step?,This is only a step by step process if you have access to the single-user version 7.5 on your PC already or have access to a training area. This would have been helpful if this was in the description. I would not have bought this to learn PeopleSoft had I known that.
+1684,2,Bravo Josh Gracin!,"It took me some time to grab a hold of Josh Gracin's debut album but I'm very glad I did. This is one of the rare albums that I've had the chance to listen to that I actually really enjoyed from cover to cover over the past year or so. This album contains some very solid tracks, at least half of them are good enough to be released as singles. Majority of the songs Josh picked out shows off how much talent he posseses (he should have come in second to Kelly Clarkson in the first American Idol!). Though most cuts are strong, as mentioned, some stand out from the rest including the ones he released (and eventually became hits) ""Stay With Me"", ""I Want To Live"", ""Nothing to Lose"", and then there's the very moving ""The Other Little Soldier""."
+1685,2,Details on the 4 Books,1. THE WORLD OF HOUSE PLANTS by Elvin McDonald2. GARDENING UNDER LIGHTS by Elvin McDonald3. INTRODUCTION TO TERRARIUMS by Barbara Joan Grubman4. THE INDOOR WATER GARDENER'S HOW-TO HANDBOOK by Peter Loewer
+1686,1,Less than Par,I'm disappointed in the quality of this product. It seemed to be just cheap plastic (the foot rests) and shipping was extremely slow.
+1687,2,wow - a film that's scary and smart at the same time,"I wouldn't suggest seeing this movie more than once...unless you're looking for clues that give away the ending. However, I found that although this movie might've started out as a typical horror film, ...it dosn't end that way."
+1688,1,Why doesn't anyone else have this problem???,"I love this cup and I would love if my son would drink out of it but there are 2 major, non-fixable problems:1~ Even tap water makes the cup absolutely freezing to hold so my son wants nothing to do with holding it. I even hand-made a ""sleeve"" to put on it and it still wasn't good enough =(2~ He has to suck quite hard to get anything out (which we all know can cause ear infections) and he doesn't like doing that either.I wish they made some sort of handles or sleeve and then maybe it would be ok, but for now they are just sitting there taking up space."
+1689,1,Sega GT for PC not so hot,"This game looks great on the packaging, I read a lot of positive reviews on line. I bought the game, and LO and BEHOLD, even with a PII 300, and a Voodoo 3 video card (16MB), and 160Mb RAM, NO TEXTURES!!! All cars are shiny black, with no colors, and no textures. It looks awful! (But, gameplay is decent, and the tracks are very nicely detailed). If I could find a patch out there to fix the textures, I'd probably reinstall the game. ..."
+1690,1,Not a chick-flick,"Where I agree totally with the review by Eric Mattina ""Eric"" in his breakdown of the movie; this is not a movie for the morally sensitive (like me). Closer was exceptionally well acted by beautiful actors who play unlikeable characters.This sort of brazen explicit sexual conversation and unresolved, stupid, loveless, sexual game playing is not what I go to movies for... perversity, sadness, and destroyed lives I see every day in my workplace and with aquaintances... I did not find this movie, with some of my most favorite actors, entertaining at all and should have saved my money! Some issues are best left in the closet unless the film maker is going to offer some solution for the darkness of reality.Mr Mattina gave Closer 5-stars, I give it 2 for the same reasons! Acting is great, story is disgusting."
+1691,2,Easy installation on Camper shell,"Bought the rack at garage sale and used these to mount on a Toyota fiberglass camper shell. Works well, easy to install and carries canoe well."
+1692,2,My Review 2,Am setting up the TI connect but as of now it restarts my computer when I click a icon. I would think something needs adjusted.
+1693,2,coleman waffle iron,"I bought this for camping, as my mom hates pancakes, but will tolerate waffles. We wanted to be able to make a cheap breakfast a couple times and this will allow us to do so. So far it works great. It seems to be made cheaply, but we only use it a few times a year, so its great for us."
+1694,2,Indian cook book,Great book that lays out how to prepare and serve authentic Indian cuisian with photos from start to finish of the dish.
+1695,1,harmful,"This book is complete nonsense. It reflects an ever growing ideology among the so called 'pedagogs' who themselves never understood physics. It can not even be considered a physics textbook. The book pressums utter stupidity on the part of the reader, and it is painful to think anyone besides 5-year-olds can be forced to read this.No one would attempt teaching history without first teaching how to speak english (or some other language).It is similary impossible to teach physics without math.And even for a layperson who enjoys popular science books (the kind intended for people who hate math), this too is a complete failure.I can't think of a worse book.The cartoons, however, are quite amusing (will make your two-year -old very excited about physics).Hewitt should prehaps first obtain a physics education before attempting to teach."
+1696,1,silly singer eeyore,"I would most definitely never buy from this seller again. I have collected eeyore for over 25 years. Looks like it was used and not new; blue ""hair"" various lengths in different places, like someone had pulled on it. The Disney box it was wired into says comes with 3 AA batteries; true it did not say they worked - which is a sign that the seller didn't check this first and replace with new batteries or they had been worn out by use. It does sort of ""sing"" but again it sounds used. There was absolutely no bubble pillow wrapping to protect it; just because it was wired into the Disney box doesn't mean it was protected from being tossed around during shipping, especially with the batteries/battery pack."
+1697,1,The horrors of copy protection!,"I was extremely pissed off when I saw that ""content protected"" logo on the CD. I traditionally rip all my CDs into iTunes to play on my iPod. I don't buy digital albums because they can be lost in the event that my computer crashes. I predict this CD will flop, because it doesn't enable rock fans to make legit copies as they desire. Copy protection is evil and vile, and the record label should be ashamed of itself."
+1698,1,One of the worst movies ever,"I don't even know where to start. I know a lot of girls out there are longing for some piece some kind of strand, or a glimspe on the screen of empowered women/girls that they can identify with. But don't fool yourself! This movie is truely awful, and even at times explotational towards the women it has the reputation to empower. Self respecting women/girls, don't doubt that pang of annoyance and don't settle for low rate tripe like this. Read that book, it is a masterpiece! This movie is an abomniation to the book, and an abomination to the messages and spirit as well! So come on! Resist the tempation to cling to thoes flashes of inspiration that quickly fall through the cracks in this film, and dare to think. There are other great films out there, and if the storyline interests you, the book is far superior."
+1699,1,It's ok but small,"This jack-in-the-box is very small. The base fits in the palm of my adult hand. The latch is not very sturdy and it already is hard to keep the lid shut for the next turn. It only plays, ""How much is that doggie in the window? I do hope that doggie's for sale."" and then pops up. Overall, I thought it was going to be a bargain...and I got what I paid for which was very little."
+1700,1,Don't waste your time,"Just because mysteries are light and entertaining, it doesn't mean that the author should talk down to the reader. None of the words in this story needed to be defined for the reader, yet they were. The characters were one-dimensional and unbelieveable, the dialogue was ridiculous and the murder storyline was boring. This was a poor book on all levels."
+1701,2,Amazing,"Disney has outdone itself with this composition. Having just come back from the millenium celebration this CD helps me relive the magic. To be able to bring home Illuminations 2000 and listen to it on a whim is wonderful. This orchestration is definitley one of the most stirring that I have heard in a long time. I would recommend this cd to anyone, no matter what their music tastes are."
+1702,2,Awesome 2nd album!,"Forget Cassettes' music is all about contrast - soft vs. loud, slow vs. fast, tension and release. This is dynamic music, intense & energetic. The change from a duo to trio has added some sonic depth both from bass guitar and strategic backing vocals. The songwriting is complex and interesting, both musically and lyrically. This is not simple 2 or 3 chord progressions with hook and refrain; this is progressive music, full of tempo changes. The vocals at times are soft and almost timid-sounding, counterpointed by agressive, crunching guitar; then again, the guitar is subdued in other places, with Rhodes keyboard adding an atmospheric touch. The vocal on ""Patience, Beth Reprise"" is full of emotion. The drumming is solid, powerful, and varied.All around, if you like indie label, alternative & progressive rock with a live, minimally-produced sound, I highly recommend Salt!"
+1703,1,dial too tricky,The radio is functional but you have to be a really calm person to get the station you want. The dial is real tricky..
+1704,2,Makes you want to go buy a fuzzy logic cooker,Picked up some great cooking tips and I'm now convinced that I want a fuzzy logic rice cooker.Great book for experienced and beginners wanting to experiement with new flavours and new ways of cooking.
+1705,2,Fresh insight and observation,"I am re-reading ""Buck Naked Faith"" now, and I am just as engaged as the first time. I find myself saying, ""Yeah, that's right"" or ""Humph"" often because Sandras crystallizes age old (and new) spiritual insight on subjects often thought about by many.I recommend this book for just about any person over the age of about thirteen or fourteen. There are some adult situations discussed, but nothing gratuitous.You will be challenged when you read this book."
+1706,1,Statistician?,"This book was definately the result of many hours of crunching data and formulating convictions about it. I believe that the author could have had some help with the statistics behind his endeavor. You really have to question his understanding of statistics. The format of the book was weak. About two pages of text per 20 graphs that restate the text for when your eyes get tired of trying to read the words. There is some value in reading this book, hence the two stars. You will realize somewhat of a strategy, but because of his fishy smelling data and conclusions, I would steer clear."
+1707,2,Funny and Witty,"I must admit that I had reservations about whether or not I would enjoy this movie. I was pleasantly surprised by its humor and wit, and Wilson and Hudson have a great chemistry together. Some of the exchanges between their characters reminded me of Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan movies (of which I am a big fan). I am surprised at how many negative reviews it has received here. While I acknowledge that it is not the greatest film of all-time, it was a very entertaining movie, one I would recommend to any fan of romantic comedies."
+1708,1,"Just another ""Clerks""","Hardly hilarious movie attempting to be angst-ridden ironic social satire. Steve Buscemi turned in a good performance in an unusual character for him, but all others were quite bland. The main character was nothing but a self-absorbed teenage loser, bulldozing through other peoples lives, blissfully scornful of the damage she was doing. If you liked Clerks, and many did, you'll probably like this, but, if you, like me, found that movie also to be boring and self-involved, then you won't like this one much either. ..."
+1709,1,"Interesting, but not for class","I purchased this thinking it would be great for my Shakespeare class. It isn't. The editors have made decision about the text that do not match with what seems to have been (right or wrong) standard. Too difficult to follow along. Has a pretty good introduction, but you can get this online and elsewhere. Use Arden or Folger."
+1710,2,"Great buy, great fun","My 2 yr. old daugher loves this bouncer. We researched the others out there and this seemed to be the best bet and is proving to be a great purchase. Very sturdy, great colors, inflates easily. Only thing - you have to be careful with more than one child inside playing, a little tight for two bouncing little bodies."
+1711,1,Still the worst baseball game ever....,"I gave this game a three-star review a couple days ago, after playing it over the first weekend I had it. Then I thought I'd play some more just to be fair, and hey, I had already spent the money anyway. Let me just say that the people who gave this 5 stars are not concerned with actually PLAYING the game. Take it from me, it only gets more frustrating by the minute... Now it's only worth one star for the graphics. I'm not wasting anymore time with Sega; what a letdown since NFL 2K. I placed an ad for my Dreamcast in the local paper and will wait for PS2. That's right, WSB2K1 has actually driven me over the edge. I'm done.DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS GAME."
+1712,1,Terrible!,"We used this DVD player 3-4 times, and it no longer works. But, since it was past the 90 day warranty, Colby won't do anything for us. It was very frustrating to only have it last this long."
+1713,1,never got it,I wanted to replace my existing live album but they could not sell me thisalbum because it was not working correctly so I got my money back but I still have tobuy a new one
+1714,1,My review,"I cannot review this recent purchase because I have not received it yet. I have paid for it. I would like to have another copy of this book sent to me or for someone to find out where my book is. I need this book very badly and I am disappointed in Amazon.com. I've been a customer for several years but I'm not sure if I will continue because of the sub standard service I am receiving. I have emailed twice the seller of the book that I recently ordered, asking about my pruchase and they have not written me back. Please give me an answer about my book. I needed it last week!Lisarecent purchase : Entre Nous"
+1715,2,Good produt,One of the best shower head out there. Easy to install. Increased water pressure instantly. Well made for the money I spent on it.
+1716,2,Good Eats,Perfect size for cooking main dishes. Nothing beats cast iron. The food takes on a different dimension in flavor. I doubled the recipe for Sheep Herders Pie and it came out perfect and delicious. Enough to feed 8 people. Lodge is excellent quality.
+1717,1,Design flaw,"It appears that there is a design flaw in the 880. My original remote will no longer charge. Logitech, to its credit, replaced it with a new 880. However, the replacement charges only intermittently. It appears that the problem is relatively well documented -- a Google search turns up many people with the same issue.I'm hoping that Logitech will send a different model as a replacement."
+1718,1,if I could give zero stars I would.,"The disc arrived broken. There really is no additional notes necessary. The disc was broken, it did not work, therefore it was crap."
+1719,1,Piece of crap,"When I opened the box to this I realized I'd bought a piece of crap. It's by far the worst feeder I've bought. It broke on the first fill, spilling seed all over my patio. Stay FAR away."
+1720,1,not good,Dyson Mini Turbine ToolThis tool was no good because it did not fit the Dyson Vacuum cleaner that I purchased at the same time.There should have been more information as to which tools fit which machines.
+1721,1,no normal girl,"no point in reading this stipid, self-indulgent piece of garbage.....if you want to read a good book read normal girl....this girl is horrible, and the things she's done.... but her book is worst then she is..."
+1722,1,A disappointment,"I found this book rambling and rather incoherent, and although there were a few clever plot ideas it wasn't all that engaging. Besides, the main character was for most of the book very unlikable, and the background was totally negative and depressing (Earth's environment ruined, government evil and corrupt, etc)."
+1723,1,an MP3 player with a life of only 3 months,"got my FL100 256 mb last December 2003 from J&R tru Amazon, installation is quite a breeze, I was quite happy with it at first - then last night - arrrg, I added 1 new song to my list and it froze, had to disconnect and connect the usb inorder for it to unfreeze - next was able to add the song and while transferring some song in order - it froze again!! Then it displayed error, so I had to reformat the internal memory - and now the power will not turn on - IT IS DEAD!! Whatever happened Digitalway??? I'll get an IPod next time!!"
+1724,2,ink,They had quick service and good prices. The item was exactly as described from your site.Thanks for offering this item online!
+1725,1,Will this get much use?,"I purchased this pressure cooker to use in my camper through Amazon.com, and I was sorry I did. I have used pressure cookers for cooking and canning for over 30 years. Each one functioned well and served our family for a long time. When I received the Hawkins I had serious doubts about the longevity this cooker would have in my camper because of its construction - thinner gauged sheet metal in the body, long thin handle with points that looked less than strong, unfinished interior, etc. I contacted the company, but have yet to hear back from them. I decided to discard the item rather than risk it."
+1726,1,conspiracy theorist,"The author is very likely a Kurdish nationalist, not implausibly a quite supporter of the PKK. As a Communist, he has no room for religion. His analysis is misleading, basically he runs after Muslims under the banner of Islamism, he seeks to undermine the Islamic religion to satisfy his own psychological needs. The author has suppervised the work of others who also claimed to have proved that Islam does not work. The author does not use objective scientific methods, he basically writes in a way that confirms his own priori conclusions. Read the book, if you wish, but with such qualifications in mind. You may read it to understand how the bigot's mind actually works."
+1727,2,The Spirits Book,From what I've read I consider this to be an Excellent Book and am very satisfied with the manner in which the Subject is covered.
+1728,1,Sized smaller than true size,"Adorable boot and would likely be comfortable if sized right, but returned them and decided against the next size up. We cushioned inside. They are high... no doubt and very sexy looking."
+1729,2,Prior Reviews Are Not of This Set,I have not heard all of this set yet. I have the box Verve box set too and it is really great. The Verve Songbook Box has lots of the same material as included in this box set.The point of my writing this review is that all the prior reviews of this set are really from earlier issues of Ella's music. None of the reviews are of this set. All of the other reviews are dated before this set actually was released.More later.
+1730,2,Easy to Use,"I purchased the scanner with the intent to use it with my pc. I used it in that capacity for about 9 months. I then purchased a Mac and thought that i would end-up having to buy a new scanner, not so. The Umax 2200 adjusted swimmingly and seems to be even easier to use with an Apple. It is really great at scanning negs and slides. One huge bonus is the software that you receive with it. Photoshop LE!!! Ya-Hoo for Umax!"
+1731,2,"Not as good as ""Mugzy's Move""... But still good","I liked this CD, except that this wasn't as good as the previous album. Still, I think it's worth listening..."
+1732,1,Not what I expected...,"Here I am thinking that I am going to settle down with another great action packed thriller...NOT!! This movie was not something that I would be interested in seeing again. I found the plot to be pretty good, but the rest of the movie as it played out was BORING!!! Cage's narration throughout the flick was annoying too!! I was just waiting for this movie to get better, but it never did. You may find yourself just sitting there bored to tears with this one, as I did!!"
+1733,2,Text books only go so far,"Text books can only bring you so far. Yet this book can get you the ""A"" you have been looking for. It has simple to understand knowledge with easy to interprete diagrams. A must have for any level-one high school Chemistry student. The only visible problem with this book is it lacks some detail, in the text, and visual maps."
+1734,2,Phantom Stallion #7,"One of my favorite of the series, very heart-warming! Took me a while to read but every chapter was mysterious and exciting. You can almost see the characters as you read the story. My second-favorite so far. I strongly recommend this book for horse-lovers!"
+1735,2,Pretty Good Read,"Janet Evanovich is a great Author. I was disappointed in this Christmas book, however. It seemed that she had rushed to meet the deadline or something. Just not as good as all the others. I did however enjoy reading another book from one of my favorite authors."
+1736,2,The best directory for the professional and amateur,"This book is definately a must for anyone studying or wants to know more about essential oils. I used this book as a bible during my Diploma of Aromatherapy course, and I still find it a valuable tool for this modality, as it covers everything from where the plant originates from, its chemical properities, effects on the mind, body, skin, blending. I highly recommend this book for any aromatherapy enthusiast. A must on the bookshelf."
+1737,1,Amature hour . . .,"I love Vienna and will put up with almost anything to enjoy views of the city but the sound and general picture quality of video made it a real disappointment. It has the feel of a 70's home movie. The content isn't bad but the production values are substandard. Although this is packaged under a different title by a different company, this is the same exact video as ""Summer In Vienna"" which has the same quality problems. I'd give this one a miss."
+1738,2,How Could Anyone,"The first time i heard this song i was on a Renewal Retreat the words touch my heart so i begin to cry. One of the sisters did a dance along with the music,I said i must have this cd i ordered it. The only place i could find it was at amazon.com The whole CD is just beautiful when i'm having one of those tough days i put on Shaina Noll Songs for the inner child and it brings peace to my soul."
+1739,1,Disappointed,"I was happy to see this item available at such a reasonable cost however, when viewing the episodes, some of them had problems - skipping sections of the video or just stopping for 10 - 20 seconds and them continuing."
+1740,2,A six star machine.,"Nothing exciting, but its small, cheap, extremely powerful, easy to empty the permanent dust filter, no bags to buy.You can optionally wash the dust filter (cloth) under a faucet and let stand for a day to dry if it ever gets really dirty. Given that, it should last forever.The cord winds around the handle and then the vacuum and all accessories fit into the foam + cardboard box.Yep the attachments can come off temporarily if you really use forceful cleaning, but easy does it is the cure.And their online site sells a replacement attachment set if your kids lose them!"
+1741,1,"As others say, just say no to studio greed!","They know we want the extended versions, and they know that the Blu-Ray format is more than capable of delivering BOTH the extended and theater versions on a single 50GB BD disc while still having excellent picture and sound.Instead though we are asked to shell out for this and then shell out for the ""super duper extended"" version in another year or two when the Hobbit movie releases.Vote with your wallets people, just say no to this crap!"
+1742,2,He who is the greatest,"to me this book was a interesting book it related not only to the people who wouldn't want to read the book but was told to, to get a grade and also to the people who liked short stories as well.This book had some stories for all ages and races when in certain books their content is only relating to a specific reader."
+1743,2,Fantastic!,"Excellent instructions, easy to understand. I love the projects! Have started several of them. I think the patterns are unique designs for patchwork."
+1744,2,Best Coffee Maker Ever!,"I have tried every coffee maker out there and the Bunn Coffee Brewer is absolutely the best coffee maker. In the mornings I want my coffee NOW! After I pour the water in to machine, the coffee starts pouring out! I wouldn't have any other coffee machine."
+1745,2,"Good, could have been great","We enjoy that series that it seems cannot be made in France : fun, in touch with society, sometimes moving, and enjoyed by the whole family (modern or otherwise).The only thing that spoils our pleasure somewhat : we aren't yet good enough at English to do completely away with subtitles, and the French translation really sucks. We hope it improves for the 3rd season !"
+1746,1,When did The Spirit J*ck*ffs ever make a record?,"Triple H: N'SYNC should be called XTINKT! Shawn Michaels: You got that right Triple H! Triple H: Is it me or does Justin look like Kenny of The Spirit Squad. Shawn Michaels: Yes and he sounds like him, a wuss who would get beaten up by D-GENERATION X! Triple H: Also, Bye Bye Bye and It's Gonna Be Me are as bad as eating a rotted tuna fish sandwich. Shawn Michaels: Also, Steve Miller should sue these losers and Left Eye's estate for stealing Space Cowboy from him! Triple H: What next, Bratney Sneers calling herself The Gangsteress of Love. Shawn Michaels: We don't have to worry about XTYNCT anymore as they are disbanded, especially after Lance admitted to loving things who had last names like Clark, Cheney, Embersol and Parry. If you are not down with D-X, WE GOT TWO WORDS FOR YA(crowd yells ""S*CK IT!"")!"
+1747,1,Please....,"Special Edition? How about Special Ed?I watched ""Science Fiction,Fantasy Reality"" on the ""Global Warming Edition/Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea"".These idiots were trying to say that Global warming was not invented by Irwin Allen.They actually claimed that Jules Verne predicted the size of the Apollo spacecraft.He didn't,he just set up some chairs in his parlor,added a walkway and gave it the shape of a bullet,duh.[20 bucks says that Verne had a chair,if you multiply it's width by 5(passengers+ walkway on either side) and add the hull thickness of the USS Maine..you have his ""prediction"" of the Apollo spacecraft's size,minus the Saturn V booster,of course.Those science fiction writers aqre so stupid,The Nautilus was just given a magical way of propelling a surface warship sized sub,look at when it was written!!!]Now these idiots have to update the whole Irwin Allen catalog so nobody suspects what they are up to.Thanx,You know who"
+1748,2,Time Out?,"This film deals with a number of things that most men face in their lives. Sure, you could be nasty & say some vile things about the French in particular, but the fact is that men in the US can also see themselves at least to a certain extent in the main character of this film. Getting fired is not an extraordinary thing, it can happen to most anyone, & doesn't mean that you're a loser. I was warned by a woman who was my boss to beware of women bosses - they could be very vindictive, she told me. She was prophetic in what she said, later I was fired by a woman who succeeded her, & it was an act of vindictiveness. Well, that was not the only time I was fired. In this film, Vincent makes some very wrong choices, & has to eat humble pie as a result. In the end he tells his family that at least he did not desert them, & he was right about that. I gave the film 3 stars because I liked it - then another because it was very well made, written, acted, & directed."
+1749,2,Spyro Gyra Live complete,"This is my favorite Spyro Gyra set and is the only place (other than the record release) where you can get the opening number ""Old San Juan"" which was deleted from the CD release. The above track listing should be 1.Old San Juan with numbers listed 1-10 as tracks 2-11. (Latin Nights is not on the cassette nor the album twice)."
+1750,1,Copy Cat,"The cover design of this book is shamefully copy-catty. While not at all related to the fabulous ""French Women Don't Get Fat"" books, this book imitates those of Mireille Guiliano's right down to the title font and the illustration style. It looks to anyone familiar with the original ""French Women"" books like Ms. Frith-Powell is trying to take a ride on another's wave of success. I'd like to think the publisher and not the author is responsible for this manipulative move (still sad). If the author is, I'd have to question her suitability for speaking authoritatively on the French Way. One thing the French are not known for is copying."
+1751,2,Mind Opening Literature,Becoming me is a wonderful book. As I read it to my children it had me looking at the things around me in a whole new way. Any book that can capture the attention of my children (ages 3 and 5) and have me re-examining the world is fantastic!
+1752,1,why a 1991 version?,"not a bad disc, but the advertisement stated a 2004 disc, and i received one from 1991. if there is a newer remastering, i would have much rather gotten that, especially on an old recording like this."
+1753,1,Summer Reading Sinks,For summer reading go in to 7th grade i had to read The Light in the Forest. At first i was estatic that it was only 120 pages. Little did i know they would be the longest 120 pages i've ever read. For school we had to answer questions on the first 8 chapters. by the time i was done with two i wanted to burn the book. THIS IS A HORRIBLE BOOK WITH NO POINT TO IT WHATSOEVER!!!!So if you LIKE being BORED this IS the BOOK 4 YOU!!! take my advice and DON'T read it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!anairda
+1754,2,Great movies,"Very good movies!!! One of my favorite sets of all time. Romance and adventure all in both, both family movies"
+1755,2,Awesome,"I didn't think Morgan could top DAUGHTER OF JOY but she's certainly done it with WOMAN OF GRACE. This story picks up where DAUGHTER OF JOY left off and is the story of the ex-prostitute, Hannah who Abby rescued from the brothel. Hannah and her baby have found a home at Culdee Creek and Hannah has been assisting Devin MacKay's wife. There are a lot of surprises in this story and to tell too much would rob the reader of much of the pleasure if too much is told. Suffice to say it's another powerful read from master storyteller Kathleen Morgan."
+1756,1,Big disappointment,"I'm an old hand at growing my own sprouts. But for some reason I can not get onion sprouts to grow well. It's not just this brand ( although I had hoped this one would grow for me ) it's all brands of onion sprouts. I have even soaked the seeds over night. After several tries I have given up. Unless you have some magic formula, or extra green thumb - save your money and go for a different sprouting seed."
+1757,2,Wonderful,"Every year around christmas my church used to sing all these songs. I bought a tape and played it so much it popped. I got this and it bought back so manny memories. I love all these songs. I walk around the house singing ""and the glory of the Lord"" all the time. Get it just because it's classical and for the Lord. if you love both you'll love this."
+1758,2,I like my Brothers Printer...,"Very fast, efficient and quiet! Very pleased with my purchase. Have not used scanner yet.Marcia"
+1759,1,Does not stick,"Attached item to the fridge per instructions. The next morning, my almost-2-year-old ripped it off. We are now using a much less expensive fridge lock that works like it should. Alas, this failed lock hasn't gone completely to waste - we've repurposed it by sticking the slider vertically to the cabinet to hang up bibs."
+1760,2,Excellent reference for christian business ethics,"I am a Christian CEO in Hong Kong and have written a book review on this book for the Graduate Christian Fellowship a few months back. An excellent reference. Touched on many important and controversial issues including capitalism, bribery in third world, honesty, advertisement and marketing, etc. Presented many primary articles with balanced, provocative opinions from all sides. A book for the serious thinker. NOT FOR NEW CHRISTIAN BELIEVERS NOR FOR NON-BUSINESS PERSON. Only one criticism: the editors' own comments at the end of each chapter is a bit weak; not the same calibre as the 20-30 authors."
+1761,1,For completists only,"Packaging is nice and professional; however, the sound quality is unacceptable on this German import - it sounds like it was mastered from a beat-up vinyl record. Too bad, as there are some very interesting alternate versions of well-known Neil Young tracks on this long-unavailable album including versions of Alabam, Southern Man and Find the Cost of Freedom/Ohio. I imagine the best route to take for the real audiophile is to search out a vinyl copy in very good condition, as this is undoubtedly one of the worst sounding cd's in my collection. It is generally acknowledged that Journey Through the Past will probably never see the light of day in a digitally remastered format so, at this point, 'you get what you get.'"
+1762,1,Not satisfied,"I am a first time mom and registered for this diaper bag. I wanted something I could carry easy. It is very easy to carry, however my daughter is less than 6 months and it is already ripping and falling apart. It also not very big and I had trouble fitting all the items I needed to pack inside. I ended up buying a back-pack from Pottery Barn that I absolutely LOVE!I definately do not recommend this item."
+1763,1,Ashamed I read this book,"I picked up this book because I wanted to know what the big deal was about. There was the television show and assumed there would be some redeeming value to this book. I was terribly wrong.The biggest problem I had was the characters. This book was filled with shallow stereo types who were only interested in sex, drugs, and alcohol. All these issues combined with bulimia served no purpose to add anything to the nonexistent plot. And any advantage gained from the above topics became old and repetitious. When you got to the end of the book, it was clear there would be a sequel.I felt as if the book was written haphazardly in the same way the characters were portrayed. If you like the show, then I guess you already read it. For those looking into starting the series. Please don't. There are so many Young Literature that is fascinating and thoughtful.Don't waste your time or money."
+1764,2,One of the few good books for men,"Most Christian books for men tend to focus on the sensitive side of the male; the caring, compassionate, loving kind. Nothing wrong with that, but we know as men there is something in our souls that long for adventure. That is where ""Wild at Heart"" shines. You will not be sorry buying this book for yourself, or if you are a wife, buying it for your husband. It has been an ""eye opener"" for me, to say the least."
+1765,2,So much better than the apple version!,"I love it, it's LONG and the connection is secure and it doesn't get hot! It's wonderful!"
+1766,2,I love these!,"I got these to teach the kids I take care of how to play the recorder. It's great because you can pick a color they like, so everyone knows which instrument belongs to which child, and also, of course, it makes it more fun for them. The sound quality is very good, and I am completely satisfied with my purchase."
+1767,1,What an Awful Book,"In Street Wars, Tom Hayden goes qualitatively past forgiving thugs for their thuggery; he presents them as heroes, warriors born at the wrong time. The fault, the blame, in the book goes entirely to America for not taking the lead of SDS and the other New Leftists of Hayden's heyday. What a vision: Somehow a coalition of stupid violent thugs and college-age ""philosophers"" will feed and clothe the millions.The only positive value I see in this book is for its object-lessons in how ideology blinds. You see it best in Hayden's interviews and character profiles, where he can just report data like ""So-and-so fathered 5 children with four different women, never intending to support any of them, and killed three people, all before turning 18"" and then hustle to the point of the story, which is how horrible it is that we ""demonize"" such remarkable fellows. What garbage. Grow up, Tommy"
+1768,1,A very broad but cluttered calculator book.,"Book is very broad but very cluttered. The reader is hit with a confusing array of calculator features that he or she will never use unlerss they will teach the hp12c calculator to other instructors! But, then what??"
+1769,1,Is book true?,"In the very first chapter the motion picture frame of war coverage on the Roer river in Germany, it shows the dates 1942-1943, but the invasion of Europe never happend until June 1944. Please explain."
+1770,1,THIS HAS THE WRONG TRACKS ON IT FOR MP3 ALBUM,"THIS HAS THE WRONG TRACKS ON IT -MP3 downloads onlybe aware that track ten, Go Skate! (Possessed To Skate '97), is not the right one. It's ""Possessed"" instead.So I'm out one song from this great album. It's a fun redo of the classic track with the heavy Trujillo bassline throwing it's weight around on it.So far, I have no idea how this can get remedied, but be aware that this is not the correct version of the album. Buy the CD I guess.Otherwise five stars for it."
+1771,2,"Warm and comfortable, but a little difficult to adjust to size.","These earmuffs are toasty warm, and also comfortably lightweight, due to the use of thinsulate material. They are a little difficult to unfold and adjust to size, since they snap back to their folded configuration, but one you get them on, they are comfy and warm. I am going to order another in grey."
+1772,1,disappointed and can't return item,I was disappointed with this product. It was difficult and messy to apply. I decided to return it only to find out that their return policy only allows for damaged or defective merchandise. Buyer beware! I've since found another product that has a money-back guarantee and yet another that will ship you free samples. My advice is to keep looking.
+1773,1,Bootleg copy of The True Story Of Killing Pablo,"I have no idea why Amazon is selling this dvd. this is a bootleg copy ofTrue Story of Killing Pablo. The dvd comes in a cheap dvd case (says blockbuster video on the inside of the case) with a dvd cover that looks like it was printed from a home printer. The art on the dvd also looks amatuer job. The title of the dvd says king of coke but as soon as the dvd starts to play the title says ""True Story of Killing Pablo"" and it is hosted by author Mark Bowden. There is no menu screen, no chapter select nothing at all the dvd just starts to play. The quality of the dvd is very poor it looks like it was recorded from a capture card and the interlacing is very bad the images are very grainy. I have no Idea why the other reviewers gave it such a high rating. Do yourself a favor and buy the real thing."
+1774,1,Listen to this...,"I bought one of these at Walmart for $125 which is waaaaaaaaay cheaper than the $200 - $250 price tags you see everywhere else. It didn't come close to measuring up to some of the reviews I had read. Even at low volumes it doesn't handle bass very well. When higher volumes are attempted the speaker struggles to maintain any type of clarity. There's also no battery operation which limits any kind of portability. Overall this speaker did not come close to providing a quality sound source for my music. Ironically, the Micro version, which is a smaller sister model, performed better in terms of putting out a cleaner sound. But it doesn't have the power to entertain. All that being said, for the same price there are a few superior pieces of equipment out there and the Altec IM7 stands at the top."
+1775,2,Rides like a dream,"We love this bike trailer. It is so lightweight and rolls really easily. I hardly notice when it is on my bike... except on steep uphill climbs. Then, I can feel a little more resistance... but, not much! Like the other reviews said... the seat is a bit awkward. I made seat cushions for our 15-month old so that the back of the seat wouldn't push his helmet forward. That has worked really well, but now we're trying to figure out how to position him (or what kind of cushion to add) so that he doesn't flop over whenever he falls asleep. (It looks like he's folded in half at times.) Other than the seat issue, we really love the trailer. It's such a great buy for the money... we didn't want to spend $500 for a Burley, but we wanted something that had the large stroller wheel in front."
+1776,2,Simply flawless,A truly beautiful album you can put on and listen to any time. Perfect for inspiring background music as you paint or write or engage in a creative activity. The sound is simply flawless and the selections are seemlessly put together. I love this album!
+1777,2,TVD S1,My only nitpick with the dvd is that there are no commentaries from the cast. I hope they remedy that with S2. I LOVE the show so there's nothing much else to say.
+1778,1,WHAT WERE THEY THINKING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!,"I HATE this game! I absolutly love SWB1, but this game is horrible. Yeah they added some cool stuff like jedi's, new classes and worlds. Also,the new vehicles are good oh, and space battles are fun. the biggest problem is they didn't fix stuff that was bad in the last game. the AI is so horrible, I think your teammates are actually dumber than they were in the last game. of course the enemies are even smarter which is also a bad sign. The campaing is stupid too.good:ummm,jedi's?bad:everything elsescore(out of ten)6.5"
+1779,1,TEARS GALORE,"Don't waste your money on this item. We bought it for our 10 month old for Christmas and we had to take it away after the first hour of playing with it. His fingers were repeatedly pinched by the wheel, which then led to many tears. Thankfully we did not have a problem returning it. He was very attracted to the colorful blocks, but we weren't about to spend this much money, just for him to play with the blocks seperately. Would NOT recommend!"
+1780,1,Review Response,"Very disappointing, as was Hooked on Swing. I was expecting the quality of Hooked on Classics, but neither one was even close. I'm donating both."
+1781,1,Right shoe was lob-sided,"I like the shoe shape for variety in my shoe collection but I was disappointed that the right shoe was slightly lob-sided ie. when wearing it, the right feet 'wobbles' abit. Looking at the shoes, one can see that the right side is lob-sided. I would have returned them to Amazon/the seller had it not been for the shipping costs. I live in Asia and it cost way too much. And I must add that it's a pity when sellers sell and send out such inferior products. I hope Amazon do take note of such complains."
+1782,2,Sushi book,Great service. Arrived on time & as described. Haven't used it yet but that's my problem.
+1783,2,Love this CD,"I originally received this as a cassette tape and wore it out so I was very happy to find the CD. I love this CD, right behind Live Two Five, on my list of favorites. Bobby's ""Losin You"" is addicting. Ibby's ""Mother of the Bride"" is a wonderful sequel to ""Dance Little Jean"". Jimmy's ""The Dream"" is another one of his winners and Jeff is always great. I remember these songs from their concerts in the late 80's and early 90's. I recommend this CD to anyone who loves the NGDB and misses the days when Ibby was with them."
+1784,1,King solomons mines 1937,I don't think the Allan Quartermain in this movie is the real one. It must be his evil twin Alex Quartermain. He even has black makeup under his eyes just like Spencer Tracy when he played Mr. Hyde
+1785,2,Excellent quality,"The only reason I gave this 4 instead of 5 stars is that for someone with small wrists like myself, this band has a lot of extra length. The choices are to trim it, which risks eventual fraying or tuck it under which I have done.If you have normal or large wrists this is a non-issue, the band is of very good quality and looks fantastic."
+1786,2,I really enjoy this show!,I buy the Season Pass and itis delivered to my Library the next day after the show airs on tv. It is extremely convenient to watch it whenever I have the time to sit down and catch up. I would strongly suggest this for anyone who is like me and not always home at the same time that the program comes on. This way I can watch when I want!
+1787,1,Monster Cable MP AV 200,"This a total waste of money! I use it to hook up my 15W guitar amp and it has absolutely no effect in reducing hum or background noise,,,"
+1788,1,Defective,The caller ID box I received was defective. I'm not sure if the defective ones keep getting returned and resold but the product I received did not work with the batteries I had. So I thought the batteries might be bad although they worked in other products. The new batteries I bought were installed correctly as the direction marked but the screen was still blank. I even tried calling my number to see if that would turn the screen on but nothing happened. So I am returning the product to Amazon and hope they don't try to sell it to anyone else.
+1789,2,compact wallet,"Nice and compact, easy to use. The leather is very soft and I am hoping will stand the test of time. Zippers work seamlessly and overall I am very happy"
+1790,1,Need the EXTENDED edition on Bluray!!!,I need to watch 12+ hours of high-def material on bluray or else my head will explode. Really.
+1791,1,Try some other books to see the COLOUR prints,There are pretty much no COLOUR prints in this book.Try some other books and save a lots of money
+1792,1,"Almost zero useful info, low quality","This ""atlas"" consists of three relatively large (about 2.5 feet) two-color pictures (front view, rear view, side view): bones and muscles drawn in reddish orange color, and the meridian lines in black. The points are shown against the bones and against the muscles.I personally found nothing that I haven't already seen in most any other book. The quality of these three pictures (IMHO) is very poor, among the poorest I've seen, only larger. No matter how many books on this subject you can afford to have, this one isn't likely to serve you much (IMHO)."
+1793,1,Terrible prenatal yoga video,When I think of yoga I think of smooth flowing motions. This is not represented in this video. You do a pose then stop rearrange the ten pillows plus towels-which the video doesn't give you time for-and get in to the next pose. I didn't find it at all relaxing when I was pregnant. A complete waste of money.
+1794,2,Nick of Time,"Bonnie's second best album in my opinion. Nick of Time isthe perfect womans album, it says what we feel, so we don'thave to say it out loud."
+1795,2,"If you LOVE world beat music, buy it","I strongly disagree with the reviewer who bought it in Boston and hates it because all they like is Bob Marley. I love Bob Marley, but his music is not all there is to World Beat and it's not all there is to Jamaican Music. I have over 12 Putamayo CDs and love them - this one included - and many different Reggae CDs - Marley included. One of the cool things about the Putamayo CDs is that they provide exposure to a wide variety of artists and musical styles that the listener may not otherwise have experienced. If you have an open mind and want to experience different styles of world beat music, buy this and other Putamayo CDs and broaden your horizons!"
+1796,2,Funnier than a trip to Disney Land!,"This is a great film and anyone who has given this a bad review obviously has no sense of humour. This is the funniest gangsta film around that i have seen, and one of the best comedies i have seen too. Loc Dog (Marlon Wayans) and his grandmother are two of the best characters in the film. Along with brother in real life Shawn Wayans (Ash Tray) who plays a very convincing best friend.The film is a piss-take of a lot of other films including Menace II Society. If you have seen this film (M II S) then you will appreciate the film a whole lot more.Overall this is an excellent film that deserves a lot of credit."
+1797,2,Waterpik WP100W Ultra Dental Water Jet,"Great design, easy to use, and works very well.I would improve the settings on the pressure levels. Has 10 settings but it could be only 3... There isn't much difference in the lower settings. 10 should be the highest and be much more powerful that what it is.Also, it empties the reservoir very quickly at the highest settings and they don't seem to be strong enough to my standards."
+1798,1,Sub-Par for the insane hype,"I feel like anyone giving this game 5 stars has been paid off by Blizzard, lackies, all of you! This is a step down from the wonderful platform that Blizzard created. The limited food supply gives you the smallest army you can imagine. The hero units are the most worthless thing they could've added. The game puts too much basis on this single unit, when you should really be worrying about your army. Why did Blizzard have to have Diablo on their minds when they made this? why couldnt they just let them be two sepearte games. Don't worry, when CnC Generals hits the shelves, WCIII is going to be in the discount bin...in no time ; )"
+1799,2,Perfect technical / trance metal,"Ministry returns with this sweeping epic of high-tech industrial madness. On this record, they discover perfect intensity and (most likely) experiment with plenty of gizmos to boot. The opening track, ""Thieves"" features great shredding over tremolo picking on the lowest guitar string, then quickly molds into an uber-evil riff. The 2nd track, ""Burning Inside"", (if your like me) will envelop your mind into a trance with its hypnotic riffs & beats. Track 3, ""Never Believe"", is definitely another standout. ""Cannibal Song"", another hypnotic industrial-fused, dance metal track, will work the same way as the previous 2 tracks. Overall, and if you give it some time, you can let your mind lose itself and break free into the endless mental possibilities this record features. ""Dream Song"", the last song on the album, will pretty much deceive your mind into a false sense of outerspace dementia. A winner overall!"
+1800,2,WAGNER IS GOD,"Wagner, quite simply, was the best composer that ever existed in the history of this universe. He created an art form that was not music, not poetry, not drama, not ""art;"" it was, in short, a combination of all of the above, in equal proportions. I can't quite put it all into words, but I must say that in order to truly understand Der Ring des Nibelungen, and indeed all Wagner, you must study the works in depth.Solti was also a fantastic composer, and certainly conducts this opera cycle wonderfully. If you wish to hear what Wagner should sound like, and hear an ""accurate"" yet emotional rendition of Der Ring... then you simply must buy this."
+1801,1,Very Anti-climatic Book!,The first 2 books were waaaaay better! Hopefully the 4th book will be better.
+1802,2,Poulan 400E Electric Chainsaw,"The product arrived in perfect working order and ready to use. Very powerful and fast sawing ability for both branches and logs. A friend who has a gas chainsaw said he much preferred using my Poulan electric saw. It is well balanced and easy to use. I do not have a problem with long runs of electrical cord. The longest I have used is 50 feet, using an extension cord of #14 wire gauge. The only drawback to this product is that is does not come with a carrying/storage case. The flimsy plastic chain guard doesn't last long. Also, I don't know about the ease of obtaining a new chain when that time comes. The product seems to be perfect for my use, which is occasional trimming and cutting of branches and small trees. I don't know how it would stand up to heavy duty use, but it's a good price/performance value."
+1803,2,Bravo!,"Anyone who is a fan of Julie Andrews (or Disney for that matter) is aware that Julie can no longer sing as she once did due to a botched vocal cord surgery. The album does not state that Julie Andrews sings, just that she selects. This a great collection of WONDERFUL disney songs endorsed by Disney's Anniversary Chairperson and a true Disney star. You will enjoy this CD as a first, or maybe second to your disney music collection.Good Choices Julie!"
+1804,1,Worst battery charger ever,"I've used various NiMH chargers for years, and this is probably the worst I've ever used. I keep it next to my computer to charge AA batteries for my bluetooth keyboard and mouse, and the batteries last approximately 1.5 days before they need another charge. If I put the exact same batteries into my $15 energizer charger I bought from walgreens, they last for weeks. This is regardless of whether I use the new Sony batteries that came with the device, or the energizers I get from walgreens.It's also very aggressive about reporting that batteries are past their usable lifetime. Some of the batteries I just got with the device are already dead after only a few charge cycles.Perhaps I got a dud, but I will stay away from sony chargers in the future."
+1805,2,great product at a great price,"I've tried splitters/joiners alone, and then added a single line amplifier. But the results were usually more noise. My goal was to take the antenna feed and add some modulated channels and distribute it to the rest of the house. This Channel Vision unit was the solution. The unit is surprisingly heavy and accommodates 2 inputs - antenna line, as well as the modulated channels from my satellite box(Dish VIP 622 - ch 65, 57). Even comes with a power supply, where others don't. Having tried a cheap amplifier, I was reluctant to try another. I'm glad I did."
+1806,1,Smaller than they look,"This item is made from nice stainless steel but it is sized for a very small person with a miniature frying pan. I am looking for a tool to hold onto an item and turn it over without dropping it. This thing has a VERY SHORT handle and it's dangerous to use near a fry pan. In fact, since it does no good as a salad server, I have yet to find a use for it. Don't get one or you'll be stuck like I am with another piece of useless junk in your kitchen.I know. I am going to put it in the garage sale bin... for a quarter. My loss. Bummer."
+1807,2,Loved it!,I absolutely loved Gathering Blue. I started reading it the moment I got it and couldnt put it down until I finished it!
+1808,2,Science Fact Empowers Science Fiction,"Mars Rising is the best documentary I've ever seen about the issues surrounding a future manned mission to Mars. Shatner's voice-over gives it extra credibility.Race to Mars is the most realistic movie ever made in the ""manned mission to Mars"" genre."
+1809,2,The Scratchless Wrench,This strap wrench replaced an old one that wore out and that I missed a lot.It grips items that cannot be gripped with other tools because there are noflat surfaces to grip or because gripping them would degrade the appearanceby marring or scratching the surfaces. It is ideal for fittings on faucetson sinks or bathtubs and any polished surfaces on pipes that need to begripped for turning.
+1810,1,Stopped working after 40 days,"I bought this heated seat cushion due to some of the good reviews, but I should have listened to the ones that say DO NOT BUY. It worked good for fourty days then I plugged it in one morning and...Nothing. Save your money and don't buy this!!! Good luck."
+1811,1,Below Average,"This is a below average welding helmet for the price. Got it for some hobby welding. Where this helmet lacks are the adjustments for the headband. They are all plastic and of poor quality. I tried to tighten the knobs enough so the helmet would stay up over my head to prepare work, they be able to flip the helmet down with a shake of my head when ready to weld. Couldn't get this helmet to do that. One of the plastic knobs stripped and I had to super glue it. Considering if it's worth sending it back."
+1812,1,"PRODUCT REVISION? Non-User-Serviceable Thermal Fuse, Quick Failure","Using the ""fine"" setting the grinder died before completing a single bag of beans. I didn't stuff it to capacity, I was gradually working through the beans and refilling the bag. The thermal fuse tripped in under five minutes, and that was it. The base was warm to the touch, not even hot. There's no automatic reset when the motor cools off, once the fuse blows this unit is DEAD.The manual says: The motor has overheated, thermal fuse is broken. CALL AUTHORIZED SUNBEAM SERVICE CENTER.How hard would it have been to install a simple self-resetting thermal breaker? Judging by the positive reviews, I have to wonder if the earlier revisions were built to fail so easily."
+1813,1,What is new? Where is the emphasis?,"Here we go again. Another edition of the same book, without any significant additions or more emphasis. Yariv mostly puts together parts of what he had published decades ago in this book. He pays little attention to pedagogy and does not care to put connections between concepts in different chapters.I could not find a spirit in the book that ties concepts together. Yariv jumps from one notation or symbol set to another without giving you any notice, which makes me think that he was more concerned with putting together his notes in a book format than trying actually teach you the subject. Publishing essentially the same book as another edition just adds insult to the injury.Do yourself a favor and check out some other book on the same subject, such as Verdeyen's Laser Electronics. Or if you have to buy it, save yourself a buck or two and buy an older edition used."
+1814,2,So Long and Farewell,"This is by far some of the best tunes that have ever come out of San Antonio, TX. Too bad it could not last langer. in early 2004 Casey left the band. Mike and Chris continued on with a new addition. The drums really bring out a little more in the music. Altuhough they do not perform as the Bop Kings, they are a must see for anyone in the SA area. Lokk for show listing for the Copy Cats."
+1815,1,Not for Dummies,"Anybody that claims this is a book for Dummies isn't a real dummy like I am. I was looking for a good book to help explain Einstein's theoretical discoveries but what I got was a book written by a physicist who just could not write a book for people who don't understand physics.Just like the book on string theory, if you have no fundamental understanding of physics and mathematics you will have a hard time getting through this. It's like a computer manual. The folks who write those books already assume you know how to use a computer and, in many cases, they are incorrect in their assumptions and the manuals prove to be useless to that average man on the street.If you're looking for some simple explanation to a complex theory keep looking - this ain't it!!!!"
+1816,1,I must be missing something...,"I am a chef and an avid collector of cookbooks. I find the recipes of this book to be mediocre at best, terribly organized and lengthy. I am not interested in Lawson's endless anecdotes, rather, I would prefer her stories to be replaces by pictures (an essential for cooking books, in my opinion), of which there are none. I was disappointed, and would not recommend this book to anyone. For basic, great recipes, I would suggest any of Ina Garten's books. Her recipes are no-fail and the books are well done."
+1817,2,"Box Car Racer a better album than,Blink 182","When,Tom and Travis Split up from blink 182,I never knew that they would come together to produce,such an exellent album.This is an album that blink 182 could never think of,the lyics are much better,they explain an average teenage life is.Songs Like I feel so and there is,are very good songs, and they both show how tom Delonge can be at his best without swearing in every line, he really expresses himself and i think that he would much better in Blink 182 if he used this side of him.Travis all so is very good in this album even though he was good in Blink 182.to round of this review is to say that even though this album has some swearing it,The songs are billiant,Tom and Travis are at their best and to buy this album if u was or are a blink 182 fan, because this would be a great sellection to any punk rock lovers."
+1818,1,MSI TV card,"Wasn't impressed with this card. The controller software looks like it's designed for a pre-teen, and it's not easy to set up (It could be that a 5th grader is smarter than I am!). Great if all you want to do is watch TV on your PC (recording showss another is another thing). I ended up giving this one away and bought a Hauppauge PVR350 (sp?) which does everything I want it to, easy to use and doesn't make me feel embarrased when friends see the interface in my screen"
+1819,1,Saved a whopping three dollars,"After tax, which I don't pay when registering on the phone, I saved three dollars and change. Then I had to jump through the hoops of registering online. Definitely not worth the time involved in ordering, waiting for shipment, etc."
+1820,1,CHEATED!,"I was eagerly anticipaing J.K. latest release only to be disappointed by a far fetched plot that did nothing to keep my attention. As a faithful fan, I vow to finish the last 35 pages (if I can manage to keep awake!). I will,however, give him another chance as I have up to now always enjoyed his books. I will just have to believe he was just having a ""bad book day""."
+1821,2,A Must Read,A+! A must read for any pet owner! Gives a good picture of what the animal rights movement is all about!
+1822,1,Overrated book,"I read this book for a book club and was very disappointed. It is not a novel, more of a memoir. The writing style is disjointed and without a coherent plot. If the author had simply called it a memoir and not a novel, I would have rated it better."
+1823,1,Long time reader - truly terrible!,"I've been a long time reader of James Patterson and usually do not buy his books when he's co-authoring them with someone else. After reading ""The Fifth Horsemen,"" which was great, I decided to try his book with Peter de Jonge.This has to be one of the worst books I've ever read. Did James Patterson have anything to do with this book or did he just lend his name to Peter de Jonge's book? This book was a complete waste of time and money. After reading some decent books with him and Maxine Paetro I thought I'd give this one a try.Truth told I couldn't even finish the book it was so bad. I read the last chapter and that was enough to ruin the experience for me. I've been reading Patterson's work since they first came out and I have to say that I'm skeptical about reading any more of his works in the future. I'm also tempted to contact the publisher about this book, over hyped and for nothing.A shame but truly terrible, deserves no stars."
+1824,1,Right Wing Propaganda,"This series will make you stomach crawl because of the blatant neo con point of view. This war killed 50,000 of us for no good reason, and this DVD series acts like we should do it all over again. When will we learn we are not the world's keeper?"
+1825,1,Christians can't spell,"Anyone who is offended by rock music is mentally unstable. More interesting would be a government-funded study into how out-dated religions can have adverse affects on today's society by contaminating the minds of children with silly stories about plagues, floods and some old man creating the world in seven days. Rock music is the solution, Christianity is the problem"
+1826,1,MIRACLE STINKS,"what a poorly acted and unentertaining movie. Taking a few days to write an overly long kiss (...) review will not make it any better. Honestly, anyone on the left should know the game was thrown for the sanctity of poor relations between us and the dominent soviets. lucky for us, we soon had Reagan and all of the sugar coated media goodies like this fake match went away. For a better movie rent Schindler's list because the only true underdogs were the jews that made it out alive.focus people"
+1827,1,WARNING DONNIE DARKO FANS,Donnie Darko is one of the greatest movies of our time. S.Darko should have never been made. It's an abomination to an amazing film.
+1828,2,what are they talking about,have they even listened to the albumgreat recordnot a sophmore slump thats for surei can set my cd player to random and be happy all daynot a song on the album that i dislike
+1829,2,got these to stop chewing,"Bought these to keep one of our dogs from chewing up things that would harm her. This way she has the freedom to roam around, drink but can't chew. Works good."
+1830,2,Great but heavy on the sopranos,"Beautiful patriotic music, but be warned that most of the tracks are heavy on the sopranos, which seems odd for songs such as Anchors Away and the Marine Corps Hymn."
+1831,1,Disappointed,"I was very disapointed with this keyboard mouse combo. I specifically bought it because I need PS2 keyboard/mouse. The thin clients I use have the PS2 connectors close together therefore the usb to ps2 adapters don't fit.Not only wasn't this a PS2 keyboard/mouse, but it only contained a single usb to ps2 adapter, so even if the adapter would fit, I would need to go out and purchase another.A terrible example of false advertising."
+1832,1,Incorrect Author Listing,"When I ordered the book Romantic Journey, it is listed as written by Linda Howard. However, it is actually written by Stephanie Howard, a totally different author with a different style. Seller said it was amazon's error since her ISBN listing is correct and it apparently maps incorrectly within amazon's system, and that I had to deal with amazon to get a refund. Awaiting amazon's response. Not particularly happy about the process and being sent back and forth."
+1833,1,There are Better,"I love Exo Terra products, but this one just did not hit the mark for me. It has to adhesive to the tank and does not lay completely flat due to the plug. It also does not put off enough heat with a 1/2' thick sand substrate."
+1834,1,Horrendous Choices,"First of all, the rivalry between the Cowboys and Redskins was born during the Tom Landry / George Allen era. So to not have games from the 70s and early 80s is unforgivable. The bitter hatred between Roger Staubach and Diron Talbert and also between Harvey Martin and Joe Theismann. The Clint Longley Thanksgiving Day miracle and also Staubach's last game against the Skins should be #1 and 2 on this DVD. As big a fan as I am of the Boys, I am saving my money on this. That's too bad. Great idea but badly chosen games."
+1835,1,"Awful, just awful","It's a beautiful tricycle and pretty irresistible to us parents who had similar ones as a child, but RESIST! It topples easily--very easily. My son is 3 years old, 40 inches tall and 38 pounds. This trike is the perfect size for him and he can ride it really well. But if he turns any kind of halfway sharp turn, it tries to tip over. If he goes the least bit fast, it starts to tip over. I'm a nervous wreck when he's on this trike because it's constantly about to tip over, and sometimes, of course, it does tip over and we have to untangle him from it. He avoids it and prefers to ride an old trike we paid $5 for at a garage sale. We finally bought a REAL trike--the Supertrike 3. It's much, much better.Don't go for nostalgia, go for function and safety. Don't buy this tricycle."
+1836,2,Chesterton and Dickens a whole lot of Awesomeness,GK Chesterton is probably the least appreciated mind of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. His intellect is penetrating and his attention to metaphysical realities creates a review that is multi layered and nuanced. An excellent resource for anyone trying to understand the man holding Dickens' pen.
+1837,2,Love it,I got this music box for my not quite 3 year old daughter and she absolutely loves it. The key in the back to turn the music is easy for her to turn by herself so she doesn't need to ask each time the song finishes. Love it!
+1838,1,Not too tempting to play again,"The only reason I got this album is because that beautiful song, ""Bittersweet"" isn't available anywhere but on this import. The rest of the songs are a screechfest of constant high-pitched singing, and after 4 songs of the same, my nerves started to fray. Some of the other stuff is too Goth to be likable for my tastes.To be fair, ""The Heart of Everything,"" their other album, is superior to this one. I enjoy hearing that one often.All in all, I instantly imagined Within Temptation to be the perfect music vehicle for any of Stephanie Meyer's vampire romances."
+1839,1,The horror!!!,I can't stand to look too close when Anna's cousin is on the show...you have to see her to believe it! It scares me to think people like this roam the earth...This episode wasn't that funny more annoying because you just want to run screaming after seeing this *thing* on the screen. I won't spoil the episode but cousin Shelly is the biggest hick thing to hit TV....scary!
+1840,1,"Save yourself, return the book NOW!","Okay, I read only half the book BECAUSE it was sooo bad, I've never read or have desired to read Steele and recieved this as a gift...I tried to read it, but the style, the plot, the characters THE NAME DROPPING...giving my brain a good dose of quality and falling back into bed with two collections by Alice Munro and some fine poetry."
+1841,1,Junk,"Ordered this item as a replacement to an iPod charger that was lost. Arrived in great time and price was great. However, the item does not work. Had to order another one from a different company."
+1842,2,The Tree that Survived the Winter,"This is one of the best books you can find for dealing with grieving for a loss. It is especially well suited for someone mourning a death, but it will also have meaning for those coping with divorce or any other of life's losses. It can be read in one sitting and is a perfect blend of text and illustration."
+1843,1,"God, I hate doing this","I reiterate my title: I hate doing this. Fact is I am very disappointed in this album, as was I with her last album. Maybe it's me, but I just don't get it. It seems like concept album after concept album here. The vocal melodies all sound very similar to each other and that of past albums, but yet don't grab hold of you as one would hope. Some of the songs are hard to even sit through due to over-emphatic tech beats and cloudy progression. I just didn't get that warm feeling of ""I can't wait to listen to this louder in my car"" feeling as I normally would get listening to her. Again I apologize I have seen Bjork in concert in Boston, I think she is gorgeous and brilliant, but I just can't recommend this album."
+1844,1,Sucks big time!,"This is just a calcophony of crap. Malmsteen in the latest bid to re-vamp his dia career decides that the audience are still impressed with the 'play as fast as I can without feel' guitar trick. This guy sucks. Widdle diddle widdle diddle, his songs have always been crap, his music has always sucked and his attitude is just unbelievable. Satch plays the same songs as ever, yawn. Vai is the only guitarist that I admire on this, so maybe a few stars for Stevie. Overall though, I thought this was a waste of money."
+1845,1,I can sum this book up in one sentence...,"""OMG MY BOSS SUCKS WAAAAAH!""There, now you dont need to waste your $ on it. Try Front Row instead."
+1846,1,Boring!!!!!!!!!!!,Sorry E. Lynn fans but I couldn't even finish this one whew! Thank God I got it from a thrift store for $1.00.
+1847,1,Apparently Amazon condones this retailer's behavior,"I have no idea if this is a good yogurt maker. E-Cuisine has decided that they have the right to substitute a cheaper version instead of shipping you the product you wanted. They have been doing it for a while and are still here, so Amazon seems to be okay with this practice.If you order this product, don't expect to get it. Certainly don't order any extra jars until you open the box. As I found out, the Girmi jars don't fit in the yogurt maker that I received.Maybe your luck will be better, but when I received my yogurt maker, I looked up the listing and found that all the reviews were from people who said they ordered the Girmi and received the other. Odds are that since Amazon condones E-Cuisine ripping people off, they will continue to do it."
+1848,1,continued disappointment,"The author puts forth a ""New view' and changes his story characters so then I didn't get my wish of 'how I would have hoped Soalme's d. turned out.'"
+1849,1,WTF!,"I previewed this movie for FREE right here on Amazon! I feel bad for EVERYONE who paid for this PERIOD! Worst five minutes of my life! Writing this review to warn all on lookers is the the reprieve from those five minutes. I still don't know what's so great about, as this movie is a testment to the worlds top 5 worst movies every made. A complete joke. To top it off, when asked to rate this movie - it's SO bad, I wish I could leave the stars EMPTY! Please watch the preview before you waste your time or money, you will thank me for doing so!"
+1850,2,This book is very insightful and helpful.,I have taught this book in adult Sudnay School with excellent results. The book is structured in a way that makes teaching easy! I recommend it highly!
+1851,2,wavelet made easy,This is an excellent book. Wavelet IS a quite advanced concept in Math. The author did a good job to minimize the math backgrond needed to understand wavelet. DON'T BLAM author because you have way too little math training.
+1852,2,Recommended for environmental studies reading lists,"The Chesapeake: An Environmental Biography by educator and political history expert John Wennersten is the informed story of the Chesapeake Bay (also called the Crown Jewel of Maryland) and the Mid-Atlantic region. From its ice age origins 20,000 years ago to how its modern-day health reflects directly on the health of waters all over the world, The Chesapeake: An Environmental Biography covers all that human science and history have known about this remarkable body of water. Strongly recommended for environmental studies reading lists and reference collections."
+1853,2,Recommended,"Moebius and Jodorowsky make a perfect team. Jodorowsky had a clear vision of what he wanted to say in the Incal, and it keeps the narrative free from the numerous dead-ends and noodling story line that marred Moebius' visually brillant and highly imaginative but ultimately unsatisfying Airtight Garage."
+1854,1,Comedy of the Year!!!!!,"This should be re-titled: Metallica: The making of St Anger staring Lars Ulrich. I felt this was more a making of, or the Lars Ulrich show, (who gives a s*** about you selling your Paintings for millions of dollars) then a documentary of the band falling apart, yes there were some interesting pieces, the interview with a near crying Mustaine, James talking about home life and how badly he treated his family (surprised his wife stuck around... must be his money) & Jason's views on the future of Metallica etc etc... but with a running time of over 2 hours and way too much rehearsal footage I would only recommended only to die hard fans. Or fans of St Anger... if any."
+1855,2,War in Angola,"The story of the former SADF's long, drawn out struggle against Cuba, and, to a lesser extent, the Soviet Union. In spite of the vast military resources Cuba accessed via the Soviet Union, South Africa was able to contain and largely neutralize the threat, forcing their enemies to the bargaining table. Mr. Heitman details how South Africa faced no other option but to confront the communist onslaught at their doorstep--a confrontation in which they would eventually prevail."
+1856,1,"NICE FEATURES, POOR QUALITY","This phone has great features, caller ID, answering machine, ect. But the quality IS THE WORST. I am standing right next to the base and it will say, ""out of range"". Happens numerous times! Sound is clear at times, but at other times the sound will cut in and out. I have a better connection using my cellphone. I'm looking for another phone right now to replace this one. I just can't use it anymore!!"
+1857,1,Terrible Movie!!!,All I can say is this movie stinks. Statham must need money to star in this gross movie. I will research any movie Statham is in from now on. Please don't buy this movie unless you are a 1 star movie fan
+1858,2,holster,fits good feels good great for the money but they just dont last real long but nice to have for a backup.
+1859,1,Carry a LOT of Batteries!!,"This thing plays ok, but the one I have exhausts a fresh set of name brand batteries by just playing through 1 standard audio cd. I have a Sony that will play a dozen or more. Tech support would not even acknowledge an email. In this fast-evolving market, products have to measure up and so does tech support. I would not recommend this player unless you are going to run it on an a/c adapter or you have a LOT of batteries you want to use up."
+1860,1,i hope maybe you will like ti more then i did.,"i listen to audio books all the time. once a month i drive from san francisco to LA. and audio book is a great way to pass the time. i didn't know much about this book, until i saw a trailer for a movie of it coming out in a few months. since, the movie looks great, and something i would like, i thought it would be nice to listen to on my next trip to so cal. about 3 chapters in i had to turn it off. i didn't care for this audio version of the book at all. maybe it was the narrators tone though out or the fact that i had no idea what was going on, what time we were in, or who we were talking about. i am sure people love this book and hold it in really high regards, but i didn't care for it, and i found it to be quit boring."
+1861,1,The worst,"I am actually STILL embarrassed to live in Chicago because of this band. It is band enough that Chicago produced this horrible excuse for a band, but the state of Illinois also produced REO Speedwagon, another group faceless, untalented hacks fronted with some of the worst vocals of all time. The songs are bad, the group stinks. You don't want this!"
+1862,1,Waste of Money,"Ordered this book having already written a few treatments. I was just curious as to the author's definition of a ""treatment that sells"". Sadly, there are no examples of feature film treatments here; only a sample book adaptation treatment and a lengthy one for a television show. There's just a single chapter dedicated to writing a feature film treatment, and it consists of absolute writing basics (plot, character, point of view, etc) that anyone who's at the point of even considering writing a treatment should already know. The majority of the book focuses on television, with a few throwaway chapters about copyrighting and protecting your writing - all information that's freely available online. The Screenwriter's Bible (the FIRST book any aspiring screenwriter should purchase) covers all of this stuff in greater detail, and offers more ""real world"" examples. Don't waste your money."
+1863,1,La Toya Jackson - La Toya Jackson,"I give this album one star because the only song worth listening to is the first track ""If You Feel The Funk"". (And thats saying something)I much rather La Toya's work after this album. I only plan to buy it because I love La Toya!"
+1864,2,Good For Me! :),"My periodontist recommended this product to help me cut down on decay, as I am prone to it. I have been using this flavor (and the peppermint) and both are delicious.I hope they are helping, but the proof, as they say, is in the pudding...I will find out when I go for my next cleaning.The seller was prompt and professional. They sent my order with no delay & I am happy to say that, when I run out, I will be back!Thank-you!"
+1865,1,Profanity and Obscenity Abound,"I do not say this lightly, but this was quite possibly the ugliest/most hateful book I have ever tried to read. Yes, ""tried"" to read. I could not get past the first half. Kept going, thinking it would surely get better, but it didn't. And the profanity and obscenity would be tolerable if the story was any damn good, but it wasn't. Can we get any more stock characters from Central Casting with absolutely no plot purpose? Any more stupid idiots to showcase while our Hero is a perfect person? What was the point of this book other than to try and showcase some new curses (that are physical impossible) and slurs against women? A total waste of time."
+1866,1,Hollywood and Political Movies,"Other than an interesting performance from Douglas, this movie is bland, predictable, and follows the typical Hollywood agenda for a political movie. I'm ready to see a movie espousing pro-life rhetoric just so I can hear and see something different out of Hollywood.Overall, this movie just didn't push any buttons for me except I thought Douglas was interesting in a low key role which he hardly ever plays."
+1867,1,Late,"Why do they take so long to send, should have in stock when purchase it. They are like old days when take 6 weeks to get your order. Not order rom them again"
+1868,1,Not really useful,I think this is a waste of money. Not very useful. There are better ones out there.
+1869,1,Avoid at all costs!!!,"I have a Tripp Lite Smart1200LCD UPS that has been used gently and sparingly over the last 3 1/2 years and is now completely dead. I contacted Tripp Lite and they said it must be a battery issue as they tend to go bad over time. I ran some tests on the unit and the battery is actually working fine; the UPS unit itself went bad. When I contacted Tripp Lite again to inform them as much and asked if a $200 UPS was only supposed to last 4 years or less, I never even got a reply. This product is garbage and Tripp Lite is an absolute joke of a company."
+1870,1,Peter Mayle isn't funny,"Peter Mayle is a perceptive writer on topics like shopping for handmade shoes, where he can be funny without being mean. His books about Provence are not funny. In both his fiction and his memoirs, he treats the citizens of Provence like quaint natives. It's the very worst of stereotyping. What would the reaction be, do you think, if in this day and age a talented writer described black people as shiftless and lazy, or Jews as money-hungry, or all Poles as dull and dumb? Assuming that this writing were ever published, there would be general outrage. So why does Mayle think it's funny to describe the tradesmen and craftsmen of his village as slothful? The real reason Mayle left Provence was that the locals finally figured out what he was saying about them. They threw him out."

+1873,1,"$40, Wasted.","I, a former avid player of both the original Doom and Doom 2, was looking forward to a newer, souped up version of the same game. The familiar brown walled rooms, well lit, crawling with monsters for me to shoot.Instead, I get a first-person shooter re-hash of Resident Evil set in a poorly-lit sci-fi haunted house.The sound is excellent, the graphics, when you can see them, very good. How hard is it to depict darkness, though? Apparently, ID was up to the job. The game itself? Boring. One day's worth of playing was enough for me, then I uninstalled it and have wished ever since I bought Half-Life 2 instead."
+1874,2,Through the Eyes of a Child: An introduction to Children's literature,"This book has a TON of information on different types of children's literature. I had to purchase this book for a class, but it has tons of list of books that are good books to read."
+1875,2,Just an all around very good phone.,"After getting myself a new VX8700, I picked up a new VX8300 for my girlfriend. The VX8300 is not the prettiest or thinest phone Verizon offers, but it seems to be one of their best performers. Sound quality, speakerphone, RF, and battery life all seem very good. The camera takes decent pictures. It has just about all the features you expect in a phone today too. With a new contract, you can get it for $50 or less. At this price, I give it 5 stars."
+1876,2,reality is a fiction in disguise,"you seldom encounter a movie that has a very simple yet interesting story that is well rendered for viewing with a basic fairy tale structure and the finishing of an intellectual-dreamy-fictional reality of visual execution. from the editing, color grading, directing, cinematography, casting, production design, musical scoring and other more major small details that supports the backbone of the film...it is a classic. imagine Dark City, Brazil, tim burton, dark crstal then oliver twist."
+1877,1,Table saw inserts work best when they're flat. . .,"When you fork out the big bucks and get your first ""real"" table saw (in my case a left-tilt x5 Unisaw) you expect everything to be right. Everything seemed to be in alignment out of the crate and not much fussing was necessary before I was making short work of anything that came through the saw. I'm a stickler for tuning everything to square, and every time I thought I had achieved it I would find the occasional out of square cut. Finally after many hours of rechecking and test cuts I found the culprit: the standard Unisaw insert from Delta was not flat. . . During my next trip to the local Woodcraft store I checked out their floor model Unisaw and found the same dip toward the blade that mine had. Though I had wanted to get a zero-clearance insert, it bothered me that I had to get one if I wanted consistent cuts. Not only does the Unisaw come with a ""throw away blade"" but at least some come with a ""throw away insert."" C'mon, Delta!!"
+1878,2,"Bass,how low can you go? Death Row,what a brother knows.","This is considered by many critics and music fans to be the best and most influential hip-hop record ever,and deservedly so. The thing that is so great about Public Enemy is how they don't hide the truth from their listeners and tell it like it is for a black male living in a mostly white controlled society."
+1879,1,It ain't what you think,"I like others was hoping for the original arcade game simply available on the PS2.Alas this was not to be.I guess it is an ok game, but they really should have given it other name.JMHO"
+1880,1,Still brassy!,After reading other reviews here I had high hopes that this product would mean the end to brass in my dyed blonde hair. So I added two capsful to the L'Oreal extra light blonde tint/developer I buy at the drugstore. At first I was ecstatic at the cool ashy color I obtained after this process. But one week and two shampoos later the brass has started to reassert itself. What a disappointment! I've now ordered the Wella White Lady toner to see if its more purple color (as opposed to the blue in this one) will cancel out the yellow better and longer. Still I'd love to know why this Wella product essentially washed out. I did wait 48 hours before an initial shampoo.
+1881,2,"Rumble in the Bronx. do you own it?? if not, go buy it.","I'd say this is one of my favorite movies. It may not win any awards, however, it has loads of action from start to finish. There are no dull moments, which is incredibly rare in movies these days. And how about those fight scenes? They are truly amazing, and since Chan does all of his own stunts, they look incredibly real. Most kung fu movies look fake and like acting, where as his actually look like he's brawling it out. I'm amazed every time I see it. And, the movie sort of has a plot. Like I said, it's not an award winner, but it's very entertaining, and when it all comes down to it, that's what counts."
+1882,1,Ditch Weed,"Goddawful, Season Six of Weeds is so bad it doesn't deserve a complete review. I refuse to ""review"" a show that is obviously so budget-strapped due to presumed ""star-pay bloat"" that most of the sets are either inside a car or even more obnoxious and cheap-ass, IN PARKING LOTS!?Don't believe the shill hype, avoid this altogether, or at the very least if you are a Weeds fan (as I was), rent the first disc and see for yourself before buying the season. A pale, weak shadow of its former self."
+1883,2,One of my favorites,"Its a good video becuase its has easy parts, and more challanging parts! So it great for the beginers and the more advanced! I DONT agree with the review that said it was for only for beginers!! I'm not a beginer! And there were some parts that were challanging for me!! Shes not cheesy and got a great bod! I plan to get all of her DVD'S"
+1884,1,Disapointed!...,"Yeah there are outakes of ""I'd like to buy the world a coke"" but it amazes me that the whole commercial is'nt included in this dvd. And most of the ad's included are not the good ones."
+1885,2,Possibly Kershaw's Best CD to Date,"Simply put, this is a great CD. Nik Kershaw once again has produced another outstanding collection of songs. Nik Kershaw, as he did previously on 15 Minutes, has demonstrated that he is able to grow and transcend the 80's when he topped the charts with ""Wouldn't It Be Good"" and ""The Riddle"". To Be Frank features a mature, guitar oriented style that confidently demonstrates Nik's great musical abilities. Also featured are Nik's usual complex and thought provoking lyrics. There are several cuts worth consideration as radio releases (are you listening all you spin doctors out there). A great CD from a great musician! A recommended buy!"
+1886,2,"Loved it, Loved it!!","I could not put the book down....there was always something new happening that had me intrigued. I loved the scriptures and ""thoughts out loud"" from the characters as they worked through issues in their head. Although I am not a pastor or a pastors wife the characters were relatable and still you learn and gain something from the characters struggles that you can apply to your own life."
+1887,1,Frustrating time-waster,"I had 3 of these Grizzly cord reels in our shop and became so fed up with them not fully retracting that I replaced them with the Rockler 12 gauge reels. I am so glad I changed them. Yes, the Rockler reels are 30' long compared to the 40' Grizzlys, but still the best for the money in my opinion. http://www.amazon.com/Shop-Basics-Retractable-Cord-Reel/dp/B001DSXDL6"
+1888,2,"Great Video, Annoying Commentary","I about 10 weeks pregnant with my second child and purchased this video and another to use throughout my pregnancy. I defintely got that sore feeling the next day, which was great, but almost poked my own eyes out while listening to how annoying summer sanders is throughout the session. I do recommend buying this video, but highly recommend keeping it on mute to save yourself the pain and torment that i went through.Happy pregnancies!"

+1890,2,I laughed out loud,"This is the second Alice book I've read (after Alice on the Outside) and NOW I understand the popularity of this series. I thought ""Alice on the Outside"" was a little too mature in subject matter, but ""The Grooming of Alice"" seemed exactly right.Plus I really enjoyed this story a lot more. Many parts made me laugh out loud (and you really get some weird stares when you do that) and one part made me want to cry. When I get that involved with a story, I know it's good. Plus Alice's problems (and her friends' problems) seemed very realistic.I enjoyed this book a whole lot and plan now to read the next Alice book. And the next..."

+1892,1,"A truly low quality, terrible design","I purchased the Oxford 6 shelf bookcase in 36"" and 48"". The design and quality of the oxford bookcase was sub standard at best. The items actually broke themselves during assembly. I wouldn't trust them with any weight at all. A truly low quality, terrible design.Home Decorators was very pleasant and agreed to remove the items from my home and arranged for a refund."

+1895,1,Have Heard Better,"I was disappointed with the quality of the recording on this CD. I used to have just about every record by this artist and honestly I think the records had better sound than some of these transferred to CD. His music is good, but I expected a better sound now that they have it on disc. I have other CDs I have bought to replace albums that have been fantastic, this wasn't one of them."
+1896,2,WIlber's most comprehensive work,"There is no need to rehash the brilliance of Ken Wilber. I think this is Wilber's most comprehensive work to date. It is very detailed and he covers an incredible range of topics. You do need to have some background knowledge in History, Literature, Social Sciences, Religion, and Philosophy to grasp this material adequately but if you do, it will truly inspire you and also make you truly think. If you don't have that kind of background knowledge I'd recommend ""The Ever-Transcending Spirit"" by Toru Sato since it covers similar ground but Sato's work is more simplified and requires minimal background knowledge."
+1897,1,A bit confusing??,"I was hoping for more in this book. The story gets lost behind all of the dialogue. There seems to be too much going on in this book and it lost me and my daughter early on. Additionally, the ending leaves SPOILER ALERT a child surrounded by monsters in bed! Albeit they are cute monsters, it just had me perplexed. The title of the book and the premise behind it was a Monster trap. But the monsters are everywhere except trapped! And, we just couldn't make heads or tails as to what they were (machines in the grandpa's shop, toys, or monsters). I thought it was very confusing and just a bit too strange for my taste."
+1898,1,Doesn't fit my Dell Latitude,"Unless Amazon sent me the wrong one (i disposed of the wrapper before finding out) this model doens't even come close to fitting a Dell 15.4"" screen."
+1899,1,"Brando is excellent, but ...","Marlon Brando's performance is still watchable: subtle, surprising. So ... just damn good. He clearly modified his part on the fly, to make it compelling and real.But the movie is barely watchable: melodramatic, unreal, unceasingly moralistic, and the music by Leonard Bernstein is so badly over-the-top it makes you want to scream. The rest of the actors are all sporting their soap-operatic gestures and their radio voices and their canned character quirks. The script is well-structured but the dialogue is terrible ... except in Brando's case: he's like a magician who's stumbled into the middle of a high school play.By the way, the DVD is full-screen, not widescreen. Which is a shame, because the cinematography is quite interesting. The features on this DVD are worthless."
+1900,2,Delightful way to pass a few summer hours,"OK, get yourself a cold drink and head for the patio, or tuck this one in your carryon baggage for a cross county read. Perhaps I'm prejudiced: I grew up in the West LA she describes (sans nannies) and have bought books from Diane at a marvelous small book store where she leads books groups. (Eat your hearts out Amazon customers: buy it at Duttons and you get a free candy bar. Can't tell you why - you need to read the book to find out.) Diane's a delight and her personality shines through in her writing. It's a light happy read, a book you want to return to until you, regretfully, reach the last page. And the characters become part of your own memories. Don't overlook Fleur de Leigh's Life of Crime; it's not as light weight as you might think."
+1901,1,Do not buy,"The WCG200 V2 still has several software/firmware defects, the most annoying of which is dropped connections several times a day. To restore communications, a cold boot is required.The convenience of an all-in-one solution is outweighed by the time wasted in reestablishing connections. If you telecommute using SSH or Telnet over VPN then DO NOT BUY THIS ITEM."

+1904,1,Pitiful,"Danielle Steel has a singular, peculiar talent. She can create wealthy, gorgeous characters and sweep you up into their dramas. You really CARE about whether Tiffany gets Reginald in the end, because you sense that Danielle really cares. This book is a pitiful attempt at humor. You sense that she was just sleepwalking through it. When will readers stop buying these silly little short stories that are priced the same as full fledged novels?"
+1905,2,God at your wits end Book,I got this book as an enhancement tool for the DVD and study guide and I am SO glad I did. Marilyn included many extra insights that made the study so much more interesting. Good item.
+1906,2,What an excellent piece of work!,"A definite must for any Donaldson reader! I can't imagine the amount of work that must have went into the construction of this book! The Land comes to life through meticulously researched and constructed illustrations and maps. Virtually all of the places presented in both the Covenant series are illustrated and scaled. Maps of Covenant's journey are drawn to scale and labeled to correspond to events in the series. A superbly researched and constructed work. The perfect companion to one of (if not the greatest) fantasy series of all time. Excellent excellent excellent! Since this book is out of print, if Amazon can't get one for you, go to EBay and bid on one. You can't fully appreciate the Covenant series without having read it with Karen's book at your side."
+1907,1,TurboTax Installation Problem,"Be advised that if you do not have a designated ""C"" drive or partition on your hard drive, TurboTax 2003 will not install on your computer. The pop-up TurboTax Deluxe setup box appears near the end of installation and states ""Error creating necessary version files."" Then setup suspends. When TurboTax support was queried via their chat facility, they confirmed the problem and had no solution at this time. Subsequent searches in their FAQ area also stated that TurboTax will not install for the same reason as above and instructs the viewer to return Turbo Tax to Intuit for a refund. Nothing like driving your customers to the competition! This also makes Intuit's tag-on programs ""Its Deductible"" and ""Quicken"" useless but there's no mention of what to do with these although, the way they handled this problem, it's pretty obvious what their reply would be.You might want to check this out further if you have a high capacity storage drives that do not contain a ""C"" partition."
+1908,2,Thrilled with these!,"These are beautiful and practical. I don't know as though I would want to can with them, but for my purpose which is making water kefir and kombucha they are exactly what I needed. Thanks to Amazon Prime they were here in less than 48 hours (I'm so spoiled by Prime) and there was no breakage as I have seen in other reviews. I couldn't be happier."
+1909,2,Musician's Opportunity,"This is a very affordable tux. It's not the best quality that you can buy, but it's reasonable for the $150.00. After all I do not wear a tux every day. I'm a bass player and I always had to take my jacket off while playing. I had to choose between a ""bigger than my size"" one, or this one. I chose this one. I can play my bass wearing it and I look and feel good. I would recommend this for any drummer, percussionist or any instrumentalist who needs to be comfortable playing. Also waiters, dancers or any one who likes to be not restrained. I think is a good investment. I'll talk about durability in a couple of years, we'll see."
+1910,1,The Bizkit is Limp,"Turgid, whiny, childish, badly written, craply produced, boring, three chord riffs, AWFUL vocals and very repetitive. In the words of the great Zakk Wilde: ""Limp Bizkit still suck!"" and indeed they do!"

This is not a radio that you can rely on for reports. We are in a location where there is good reception. What a disappointment for weather reports! But the AM/FM works great, this would be okay if that was the sole reason for ordering the Midland WR300.Sarasota Florida"
+1913,1,Sorry I bought it.,"The backgroud information this gives about the crusades is not only no better (for a DMs use) than any history book from your local library, it is slanted in favor of a pro-muslim, pro feminist point of view.As far as actual game mechanics go there are no character/monster write-ups, no maps (none that you couldn't get from a history book), no (complete) scenarios, and worst of all, the author completely sidesteps the issue of opposing clerics in a monotheistic campaign. Clerics are treated in the most generic form possible.What a waste."
+1914,2,^The BEST Of The BEST^,"I have played games from SuperNES to Playstation to N64 and this is the best next to ""Metal Gear Solid"". If you like RPG games this is the one to get because you get to do every thing from breading chocabos (tall birds like Flamingoes)to anialating robots w/millions of life.

Some running around in the meantime, but nothing that advances anything remotely resembling a plot. Pretty much a Godzilla clone remade as a costume drama."

+1920,1,Not Good For A First Read.,"I found this book to be too wordy. Theorems are sometimes stated without proofs then followed by several corollaries with proof, followed finally by the proof of the original theorem. Allusions are made to geometry unfamiliar to some learning the basics of commutative ring theory. A nice book to come back to."

While it cleaned my jewelry quite well, I was very disappointed that it didn't work for more time. For almost $40, it should have worked for at least a few years. Apparently there is an issue with the seal and water seeping into the unit and frying the controls... so it's poorly manufactured. Please don't waste your money on this unit."

+1924,1,A whole lot of NOTHING,"That's what you'll get. Well, you'll get a lot of nattering, tight-lipped, skirt-smoothing, whining Aes Seda, pages of mundane information, and even more splintered sub-plot lines and new characters. But hey, you've been getting that for the last umpteen books. Cripes, why do I keep reading this series? Because with each new book there's still a glimmer of hope that it will GO SOMEWHERE. But, as with the last few books it goes NOWHERE and it doesn't even get there fast. I *never* skip paragraphs when reading a book for the first time but I found myself skipping page after page in this snail fest. This is the worst so far. Mr. Jordan... it is becoming ever obvious that you are milking this. Just finish it for crying out loud. Please end the misery for us all."
+1925,1,"Different title, but same DVD","I bought another DVD of the same concert. Now I have two identical DVDs. This is very deceptive. It is not right to sell a similar product with different titles. This DVD has Jimmy on the cover, but he was not eve in the concert. I felt cheated. And I bought almost every of their DVDs."
+1926,2,Jackie's Back,After The Much Flawed The Tuxedo He's Back And Better Than Ever. This Is Funnier Than The First Surprisingly. It's Also Refreshing To See Jackie Chan Back As Chon Wang Say It Fast Yall And Owen Wilson As Roy O Bannon In Their First Great Movies Since Shanghai Noon. This Has References To Many Famous Figures. The Little Kids Name Was Charlie Chaplin. Arthur Conan Doyle Grew To Be A Famous Writer. Big Ben Is A Very Famous Clock In London. Every Fan Of Shanghai Noon Should See This.
+1927,1,Poor construction quality,"I purchased this item after reading the positive reviews here at Amazon.It arrived today and I am pretty disappointed about the poor quality of construction. The box overall is somewhat flimsy and can easily be twisted and bent (it feels like thin leather wrapped over a cardboard body frame).The latch sticks, so it doesn't operate smoothly or easily and the lid doesn't open quite enough to balance properly so it sometimes falls closed by itself.On the plus side, the interior pockets and features are nicely appointed in cushy-soft velvet and the watch holders fit my watches nicely and snugly.I had thought that at this median price the build quality and fit/finish would be better. It is disappointing enough that I will probably buy something else."
+1928,2,YAHOOO!!!,"Like the other pre-reviewers here, I have been waiting for this for years. I agree that St. Elsewhere was the best American TV series ever. I also hope that the music rights issue has been resolved satisfactorily. The only reason I am pre-rating this four stars instead of five is that I felt the show really didn't hit its stride until the second season--but the first season was still very, very good and the whole series is a must-see for any fan of quality TV."
+1929,1,Worst book on descriptive geometry available!,"I implore all who take a course in college, high school, or other institution in Descriptive Geometry not to read this book. It reads in a doctorial level of understanding and is only a good book to understand theory rather than application. Moreover, its problems and self-test problems make learning even harder because the author fails to give specific details invaluable to understanding the problem. I give this book one star for weak illustrations and poor explanations."
+1930,1,"Fast, Correct and Afforadable",I am very pleased with my purchase from Amazon.I got exactly what I ordered and in an affordable and fast and correct order. I will always use Amazon.Carolyn Baldwin
+1931,1,The binder of the case is not wide enough to hold a full load of cds.,"The binder of the case is not wide enough to hold a full load of cds.I filled the case about 1/2 full and could barely fit in cds closest to the binder, because it's too tight.At 3/4 full the cds get bowed when you squeeze them in.Don't buy it."
+1932,1,rain dogs? huh?,"This guy is just a creep. He looks dead on the album cover and he sounds dead on the songs. Clap Hands? CRAP Hands is more like it, please!I don't know what happened to real rock and roll like Creedence and Skynnrd. This guy sounds like he passed out under a drunk piano.Real musicians like Keith Richards and Rod Stewart would be rolling in their graves."
+1933,2,Excellent for the Price,"I bought these to hold two fairly large pieces of plywood glued together. They held tight and strong, although I am not very fond of the little bend at the end of them. It isn't quite large enough to be really all that useful, and I am not sure of its purpose... a small gripe for such a cheap price."
+1934,1,Cursing Jesus is the lowest of the low,I got this opened up the front page at the preview and right away the 8th word is cursing Jesus Christ my Saviour's name. I gave it one star for that and another for it might be a good read otherwise. But initial reaction is unimpressed and if this guy keeps it up I'm done with him for sure and Linda Evans.
+1935,1,What Happened to Chandra Currelley-Young and Toni Braxton?,"I have never written a review for a CD, but this time I was compelled to do so. I absolutely love this movie! But when I bought the soundtrack, I was so disappointed that a couple of tracks were missing. First of all, I love the song ""I Wanna Love Again"". It enhances the whole mood for the ""Chandra Scene"". The reason why I bought the soundtrack was to hear Chandra Currelley's vocal on this beautiful ballad. What happened? I like Natalie Cole, but why couldn't they have left Chandra's voice for the soundtrack? Big disappointment!! Lastly, why isn't Toni Braxton""s ballad ""Stupid"" on this soundtrack? Maybe I need to see this movie a couple of more times, but are there songs on this soundtrack that are not in the movie? Like I said, Big Disappointment!!! I am on my way to Warehouse Music to trade this in!!!!"
+1936,2,"Good product,","We purchased one of these for our church 3 years ago and I now need to replace it. It was used approximately 40 times throughout the years and stood up well to the task of serving 40-50 ice cream cones a night. However if the ice cream is too hard, it did not work very well. For ice cream frozen a a reasonal temp, it was wonderful. Too much hoter and the ice cream would have melted.For serving a large group it is able to keep up, dipping a scoop in water, for a large group would not have worked nearly as well. It takes a few minutes to get up to temp, but overall it has made things easier for our group. I was hoping that it would last longer, but I will be purchasing another."
+1937,1,I WANT MY MONEY BACK!,"I've had depression for years and this is not a work on depression. It reads like an over emotional 14 year old girl's diary. If you want to put Wurtzel on a pedestal and worship her like a ranting & egocentric cry baby, then by all means, please see to it you organize a mass sucide or something. And take Wurtzel with you."
+1938,1,Sunbeam Heating Pad,"I like the size of the heating pad. It does NOT have an automatic shut-off, which is fine with me because my old one would shut off when I didn't want it to.The thing I do not like about this pad is that it is very stiff, and the chord is also very stiff. The chord won't straighten out without pulling on it, and then when you let go it goes back to being all kinked up again. It is hard to handle. NOT recommended."
+1939,1,Duke of Uke - Bill Tapia,"I enjoyed this because of my many trips to HA and seeing Bill Tapia on PBS TV (KCET in L.A.). For those who have not traveled to HA or saw this TV program, this may have not interest to them."
+1940,2,Song in the beginning,So as asked before does anyone know the song played in the beginning of the movie doing the magasin scenes?
+1941,1,There are better choices,"I thought I would give the Microsoft Trackball Optical a try. I had enough in about twenty minutes. So I silently suffered, and kept using it to give it a fair shake. The ball seemed to have a weird movement. Not very precise. The mouse is well built, however. The buttons and scroll was quiet. If you are looking for a trackball style mouse there are better choices, like the Tracman Marble+ by Logitec."
+1942,2,Finally a good movie from Disney's stable,"Chicken Little was a disaster. Robinson's was a bore. But Disney is back with a bang with bolt (be it with some help from Pixar folks). This movie is a real cute movie with lot of characters which you won't forget once you leave the theatre. Rhino was my favorite.. Kids should love it and as an adult I enjoyed it too... Look closely, you will see iphones and mac-book.. touch of pixar-apple I guess..."
+1943,1,"this may be the ""truth"" but not her best....",well i bought dis cd only because it was da queen B ! but sadly i wanted my money back! i was disapointed with this project.... dis is no Notorious KIM and no where near HARDCORE or her last cd...to me it sounds like it has to muc filler material (weak songs) i like her style .. i know she dont got no mad flow or rare production skills but she always put out catchy good material not here unfortuantely y is she trying to sound extra hard on her first single? she acts so delicate and lady like and where did dis come from (leave da bk songs to foxy) i only enjoyed we dont give a F____ with twista (go chitown Go sox!) and gimme that da rest of the album is weak i do not understand why everyone is feeling dis boring cd i swear dis is a very dull cd maybe when she gets out she makes a real comeback.. but not reccomended i sell it to anyone for 3 dollars !
+1944,2,She's great!,"ohhh my god! i only want to say that Nika is a great great singer!! she's the best! she have her particular style in pop-rock with some influence of Sheryl Crow and Jewel; but when you listen her voice with a acustic guitar...ufff! no words to describe that! she only know how to cautivate the public... is magic!! So, buy her new album, Quien dijo que era el fin, because it's so so great!!! (5 stars!) I recommended. Thank you."

+1948,2,"Expensive, but works perfectly","While I can't compare this product's effectiveness to that of other screen cleaners, as this is the first one I've ever used, this product works amazingly well and restored my LCD to its original glory.I bought this based on the other reviews, specifically mentioning the Powerbook, because my MacBook Pro screen was extremely dirty, with streaks on it that clearly annoyed during movie playback. It arrived, and voila, my MacBook Pro's screen looks factory new.The solution lets out a bit of a foamy soap when rubbed in, and it just works wonders. The only thing is, this product is quite expensive. Not surprising considering it's a ""Monster"" product."
+1949,1,Blithe and trite,"Unfortunately, this work, like much of what is produced by Legionaries of Christ, is lightweight and uninspiring. The work skims the surface of any type of truly Catholic thought, which has traditionally been profound and thought-provoking. This type of good-feeling musing is an insult to true Catholic Orthodoxy."
+1950,2,Model numbers available for $2 more below.,I needed a replacement cord for my Norelco 4821 XL and clicked one of the links to a store below (shaver prophets?). They are probably selling the same cord for two dollars more but they do list the model numbers their cord fits.
+1951,2,Well worth it,"This item has surprised me at every turn. It's solid, well constructed, and has a ""professional"" feel in both appearance and operation. The one thing which jumps out at me every time I use it, is how quiet it is. I guess I was expecting something like a blender noise, however this has a low frequency, ""drone"". It never sounds like it is really working hard. It seems capable of working all day non-stop, and works reasonably fast. Personally I like the size chips it produces, not fine like snow, but not so big as to overwhelm the beverage, and ""bounce"" off your lips.I know I sound like a commercial for this item, but it seems so infrequent that I receive something which exceeds my expectations I sort of go a little nuts :)."
+1952,2,The Saga And Tragedy Where Naruto Will Know True Pain,"This set has the episodes that will deal primarily with the Pein/Leaf Village arc and the final confrontation between Naruto and the leaser of the Akatsuki. Some people will be somewhat annoyed as this set will cut off during half the saga and will have to wait until the next box set is released, but many I'm sure have already seen some of those episodes already on Hulu or such so it shouldn't be to harsh a wait. So for fans let out a shout as we see the fist fight of the century as the unshakable Naruto faces off against the determined Pein for the prize."
+1953,1,DVD other zone than EUROPE,I was very disappointed not to be able to watch this DVD. I have no DVD player for zone 1!
+1954,2,WOW!,"I have been playing my uke for a few years and loving it. When I listen to Mr. King play it reminds me of how far I have to go, but also just what is possible. Thank you J.S.B. and Mr. King."
+1955,1,"OK, considering no other unsalted options","Trying to cut back on sodium, yet being a sunflower seed junkie, I thought I'd give these a try. They took some getting used to at first, but I warmed up to them rather quickly. The size of the seeds are a bit much (they can make your jaw hurt after awhile if you have to turn them upright to crack inside your mouth). I pretty much mowed through 4 of the canisters, thinking that I would probably order some more before I ran out. However, after getting most of the way through the 5th one, I poured some seeds into my hand, along with a weevil. I was disgusted by the possiblity that I might've eaten one or some already without even knowing. I then looked in the bottom of the sixth container and saw a weevil in it as well. In all the many years I've been eating sunflower seeds from David or Frito Lay, etc., I've never, not once, encountered this. I would not buy these again!"
+1956,2,Good Movie,"The movie was very good. The movie came on time, played very well, and the kids and I enjoyed looking at this movie. My 8 year old is a big fan of the turtles and I was very happy to find this movie.Thanks,"
+1957,1,No menu!,"This DVD has no menu! As an artist and an art teacher, I purchased it with a genuine interest in enjoying by video the techniques of the Old Masters. The first section starts out with the very basics in shapes and shadows. The artist then moves on to figure drawing. If I want to review a section at a time, the only way to do it is to start at the beginning and fast forward until I hopefully arrive near where I want to be. It is also distracting to see the artist's arm come in front of the camera, plus he rambles. His drawings are well presented, but the video is poorly created."
+1958,2,A wonderful book.,"I happened upon this gem of a book at my local library. Jut a few pages into I was hooked. John Parris visited the mountain people of Western Carolina, picking up charming stories, old knowledge and interesting history along the way. I read about things in this book that I would have never found otherwise. The book appears to have been written in the 1960s or early 1970s. You read of know-how from generations past that is becoming more and more scarce as time goes by. If you can find a copy of this book, it is well worth your time and money."
+1959,1,Total waste of money,"My husband and I bought this when I was pregnant with out first child we didn't buy it until I was 30 weeks pregnant we tried using it over and over again until I had the baby and it never worked!We tried using it again with our second child and it still didn't work, everyone i know has had the same results, you can hear your body but not the baby's heartbeat.Save your money and rent a neonatal unit those are great!"
+1960,1,Too jumbled and one-sided,"I had very high expectations for this book. I've read the author's work before (At Play in the Field of the Lords) and found it extremely impressive. I was also very interested in this subject. However, while this book is certainly exhaustive and detailed, I have two major complaints. First, I didn't think it was well written - the mass of information was not presented clearly enough. Second, the author presents the case in such a biased manner (he's just too cozy with AIM and its supporters) that it's hard to take all his arguments at face value. I found his overall bias undermined the detailed research. It's an interesting and difficult read, but ultimately a little disappointing."
+1961,1,Don't buy,"Despite its goofy looks, at first I liked this phone. Then, it inexplicably stopped working as I was using the WAP browser. I took it to the Sprint store and they told me I needed to send it to LG. After going through a rather annoying sending process, I receive a letter saying that the product has ""main board bent.""I called the number they listed and asked them how that could happen. The guy told me it could have been stepped on. Needless to say, the worst thing that had ever happened to the phone was being put in a pocket. It's unbelieveable that a phone could be so fragile. Frankly, I think this is a racket. Now, I have two choices: pay $180 to LG for a replacement or buy a new phone. So much for warantees. I would give this 0 stars, were it an option."
+1962,2,Certainly worth taking a look at,I think this is one of their classics. I've been listening to this album on and off for years.
+1963,1,Misleading Technical Support,"I purchased my first Nomad for my wife 12/2000. We had problems with the battery charger, but because of some personal issues, didn't return within 90 days. When I contacted technical support, they said they had worked out the problems with the batteries, but that because I was out of warrenty, I would be better off buying a new one as they would charge me ... to repair, even if it was something simple.Because I liked the concept of the Nomad I purchased another. The batteries did work a little better this time, for a while, but now (again past the 90 days) I am getting very little battery life again. I assume I am stuck with a unit that only plays plugged in.I bought it for my wife to walk with........Oh, well."
+1964,1,carpet cleaner,I hate this product. It doesn't clean well at all. I had a much cheaper unit made by another manufacturer and it was much better. It seems very flimsy and it also leaks.
+1965,2,Tidy,A must have for any fan of Tidy. Has the best remixes and all the early classics. 2 unmixed CD's and one mixed from the DJ at Club Trade in the UK.
+1966,2,This Little Driver Rocks,"I am going to keep this short. For starters I am tough on my tools and this driver screamed testosterone. I was worried about the power but after driving some 3 inch screws in an oak board to test it out I was really impressed. After putting it to work hanging cabinets my buddy asked me how long the batttery lasted because it seemed to go all day. It easily drove 100 screws and drilled all the holes I could have ever asked for. The case could be a little better and Bosch should offer a FULL set of drill bits, drivers, countersinks and adapters for the one stop purchase. My buddy now owns the same driver.... If you don't have one you will wish you did."
+1967,1,"Insidious, indeed","OK, just another quickie here. All that's really required is a sentence-long synopsis: This is ""Poltergeist"" without the special effects, cast with really crappy actors. If that's your bag, rip away and chew through the stale contents to your bloated guts' contentment."
+1968,1,What a waste of money.,"I was so excited to get these drops because I am doing the HCG diet and can't have anything in my coffee besides stevia. I wanted a little flavor. I am drinking a cup of coffee right now with twice as many drops as it recommends on the package and don't taste a thing. It is a little sweet but no trace of chocolate or raspberry. I put the lemon in my my water last night, again, sweet, but didn't taste a thing like lemon. The only upside is that the liquid stevia tastes better than the dry so at least I can use them to sweeten."
+1969,1,Doesn't Work,"I bought three of these based on the reviews I read. What a waste of money. The product is cheaply made and, as far as I can tell, did nothing. Spend your money on a more effective method."
+1970,2,Long live Britney,DVD came In stellar condition. No issues with disc. Arrived quickly. As described by seller. No issues here. Satisfied customer. Brought back many memories
+1971,2,Great...but where's the opening song?,"I love this soundtrack. It's very good, I love how they mixed Christian artists in it as well, giving them credit. All the songs are wonderfully balanced in tunes and vocals and lyrics. The only thing that I missed was the music that was playing at the beginning of the movie. What is that? Oh well. Please, check this out."
+1972,1,"A comment on ""Comment""","I found Les McCann's ""Comment"" to be a rather weak release from the very talented pianist.""Comment"" is decent soul jazz and it features a lot of singing on the tracks. However, this one plays out more like a bad R&B; album, rather than a jazz album.Also, it's a little too slow for my taste. So if you're looking for something along the lines of his fantastic ""Swiss Movement"" album and other hard-driving soul-jazz, this isn't it.""Comment"" has not aged nicely over the years."
+1973,1,not permanent results but slow growth..,"it slows the growth down for1 becasue you epilate the hair from th root, so it takes just a ""little"" time to grow back and this spray adds a ""little"" more time to grow back, i have been using this for over a year now and i see nothing permanent for sure!!!!!"
+1974,1,world in conflict,save your money.The world at War series or Nazis;A Warning from history are a much superior product.Conflict is more like a timeline of the war without going into depth of the war or the causes.
+1975,2,Tearjerker,"Ok.The point is:if you like the first album,maybe you'll be a little disappointed listening this one,but If you don't know the first album you'll find this album fantastic.First album is good punk-pop,but here maybe three different genres are played:Punk-pop,Emo,Punk-metal.And at least 9 of 11 are very good songs.The tracklist is well built,too.Emo songs (Katie W.,Threesome,Tearjerker) are simply incredible.The band now shows great personality."
+1976,2,Works perfectly without any problems,"Could have gotten by with the 12.5 foot extension cable, but this one was only a few dollars more and twice as long, allowing for more options where to put the Battery Tender in the garage. It's perfect."
+1977,2,Dog shampoo review,"My dog has really itchy skin. I bought this product and found that it seemed to help cut down on the itchiness. I would recommend this product--the only reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 is because it doesn't take care of the itching completely. However, there is a noticeable difference!"
+1978,1,"Dear Boss, Don't buy this if you are you want to kno who I am. Ha Ha.","I've never read Patricia Cornwell but having recently attended an exhibition at the Tate Britain in London which included works from the alleged Ripper and artist Walter Sickert and being a sometime Londoner have always been interested in Jack the Ripper, I thought I would try her account. Like most the reviewers here, her work is shoddy, threadbare, based on circumstantial evidence, poorly written, organised and repetitive just like the work of the Metropolitan and City Police she criticises. I'm still not convinced Sickert wasn't Jack the Ripper but she doesn't convince me he is either. And no case can ever hang on doubt. Back to the drawing room."
+1979,2,AWESOME! INCREDIBLE! Best book in the entire universe!,"This is an absolutely fabulous book with all sorts of information included. You can make your own ornithopter and a ton of other cool items. All details are included. Get a list of awesome house rules. Learn how to take care of orphaned animals. It's all inside. This book is a treasure chest filled with everything that I have ever dreamed of in my 40 something years. It is the perfect book for ALL ages! It is worth buying more than one copy so that you can give them as gifts. I can't say enough about this incredible book. P.S. And no, I am not a personal friend of the Oberon Zell-Ravenheart (although I would be honored to be one)."
+1980,1,Which picture today?,"Picture changed 5 times in the last 48hrs after filing complaint w/ Amazon. Received sub-par quality cable. Don't assume you will receive the cable pictured, I didn't. Obvious ""Bait & Switch"""
+1981,2,Why is this selling so high??,"You can get it at Greg Smithy's website for $14.95. That said, this is the BEST workout for the lower body on the planet. You just have to get past the 1987 cheese factor, LOL!"
+1982,1,Stopped working suddenly,"I was absolutely thrilled with this product until this week. It has now been approximately nine months since I purchased it and suddenly it just died. The device itself says that it is making ice but no ice is actually being made. I read the online manual that comes with the device and it says if the ice-making cycle is normal but ice is not being made the device is essentially broken but to ""verify with a qualified technician."" Spending $200 on a 'qualified technician' to verify that my $200 product does not work does not strike me as the best use of my money so I don't think I'll be taking that route. I did contact the company so I'm crossing my fingers that they actually do something to fix this (apparently a manufacturer's warranty up to 1 year is included with the product) but we'll see."
+1983,2,Goose Bumps!,"This music is so beautiful it will make you want to cry...and yet it isn't at all depressing. It's melancholy at worst, and positively uplifting at its best. The lead vocalist has this way of pulling notes quickly up from lower octaves in such a way as to produce goosebumps.I hadn't heard of this group before, I listened to a couple sample tracks because they were listed as an ""If you like "" "" then you'll love the Innocence Mission..."" I love that about Amazon, I constantly get turned on to groups I never would have been able to find 5 years ago. Discovering this jewel has been worth the wait."
+1984,1,Most worthless software I've ever bought,"I bought this software because I was building a deck, and I need a print out of what it would look like.This software would not let me input My Data, it would only allow me to use there designs.So save your money, lookup free deck designs online"

+1986,2,I loved it,I found this product easy to use and of great quality when I copied my TV show to dvd. I want another one for another room/tv.
+1987,2,THE little appliance that will.....,"All I can say is that every working, healthy and modern kitchen should have a fuzzy logic rice cooker and by buying a good one that will make Porrige and has other modes, you open it up to providing all kinds of wonderful and creative meals."
+1988,1,What a dog...,"I must confess I have not listened to this album -- nor will I. One time through ""Soak up the Sun"" on the radio was all I needed to hear. What an insipid and annoying song. I can't believe a professional, 40-something musician would put her name on such godawful drek. It must have been written by the marketing department to get late spring airplay. A pyrrhic victory, I'm afraid."
+1989,1,Time Travelers,"This is a really disappointing CD. Their first offering, Stone Age, was one of the best CDs i've ever heard- a fantastic blend of folk traditions with funky new grooves. But this (Time Travelers) sounds like all the out-takes from the first CD. It is an incipid replica of the things that made Stone Age brilliant- sounds like they simply stuck to a formula which worked really well with the first CD- but all their best material was used up in that effort; and this second one is just a pale imitation. The best i can say of it- its a frizbee!"
+1990,1,Skip the Body Gel...,"I was pretty disappointed by this product. I love the fragrance (I already had the perfume), but this gel dries into the skin instantly , and doesn't moisturize at all, and the fragrance fades within about a half hour. I probably should have gone for the lotion or body cream. Live and learn :-/"
+1991,2,Small Town America,River Season is a snapshot of growing up in Small Town America that keeps you captured from page 1. It is heart warming and full of the kind of teenage pranks that kept small town kids entertained in the 1970's. I thought it was better than Stand By Me and highly recommend author Jim Black's books.
+1992,1,Don't be suckered into buying this video,"There's very little music in this video. I bought it trusting that it was the legendary concert, but it was mostly preliminary fluff. I watched it once, found out it wasn't what I thought I was getting, and in all likelihood I'll never watch it again."
+1993,2,The holy one is dethroned,"God Dethroned's vocals can sometimes lack in quality, but their amzing riffs make up for any lost. This double-disc offers many quality black/death metal songs. Warkult is the song that i get hooked on the most. I suggest listening to them on the metal blade site before you buy it, just incase it isn't what you expected."
+1994,1,"Beautiful, impractical","Was not expecting the feeder to be so small -- my error. Should have realized that 10 ounces would hardly last one day. Also, as one reviewer mentioned, it does not look like the picture advertising the feeder. Such errors of misinformation, while I'm sure not intentional, should be corrected...........agw"
+1995,2,No Apologies...,"I know alot of Iron Maiden fans despise this record,but I like it.It does have some bad songs,no doubt or arguments there.But it also has some good one such as run silent,run deep,fates warningand the title track.Ok,so only 3 good songs and a couple other decent ones.But its enough to save the record in my view."
+1996,1,"If it's broke, ya gotta fix it!","The snowblower I ordered from Amazon/tru-value was shipped in a timely manner but was damaged. The shipping box was in good condition, but one wheel was damaged. Repeated calls to Amazon have not resulted in the problem being fixed. It is the first bad experience with Amazon, but beware!"
+1997,1,Battery Operating Time,"Hi,I would like to purchase a battery for my camera Panasonic PV GS31,am interested in the batteries listed here, but there are no info about the ""operating time"" of these battries.Can any one suggest me a battery which gives me a long shooting time with my LCD Panel open.Am looking for batteries which can give me 3 hrs+ shooting time,the battery comes with the camera gives only 45mins without LCD open. Pls adviceThanks"
+1998,2,The Quickening,"This book is far the best I have read for a long time. This book is a tale savoured and not to be gulped down in one mouthful without thought or if your are lucky discussion. It is to be read as a modern ""myth"" (in the truest sense of the word) rather than a simple yarn to wile away the hours. The journey these travellers are on takes us beyond ourselves and into the other realms.The travellers take those lost or in search of their higher selves and weaves them into their true being. The ravens awaken ones knowing that not all is what it appears. And helps us to remember, what we may have long forgotten.As an aside, as this child is the Son of the Deithe and a small God himself what is there truly to fear?I would not hesitate to recommend this book to all in search of the spiritual and the ability to open themselves up to the Worlds that are. This books gifts me with purpose and will always stay with me"
+1999,2,good show,I hadn't heard of this when it was on TV but bought it recently and really enjoyed it. It's worth a try.
+2000,2,The Fix is in...,"There has been much written about the faulty disc that marred the release of this DVD. I received my copy from Amazon a couple of days ago and the speed problem has been fixed.The two concerts represented on this DVD have been filmed in black and white, and as the result the video isn't what one would hope. That said, there is a dearth of video material for Renaissance so anything is welcome. And the best part is that the two concerts are actually of the band... they were shot from the stage and give you an up-close and personal view of the group in action. There isn't any of that vertigo-inducing MTV editing that seems to be so much part and parcel of many modern concert vids.I give this a definite five stars. The video isn't perfect and the audio isn't exquisite, but the music represents two really great periods of Renaissance output.If you're a fan, I highly recommend it!"
+2001,2,A Snap to Collapse,"This is an excellent little pool for kiddies. The 481 gallon capacity makes adult supervision a MUST, and gives everyone more room to splash around. My only negative on this pool: the walls of the pool are quick to collapse as the water is splashed out. I would buy it again."
+2002,1,"Oh, David, You're So Naughty.","David Lynch has made a living in voyeuristic film making. Colors are so bright. Make-up is so perfect. Wardrobe is maticulous. Acting is so campy. But, sometimes I get tired of Lynch trying to go for an effect and wish he would just tell a story. I walked out of the theatre on this one, because I didn't really care about what happened to the characters. I hate when that happens, especially when movies tack on a dream ending that tells you to void what you felt in the first two reels (Jacob's Ladder, etc.). My favorite Lynch film was Blue Velvet. It was lurid and melodramatic, etc., but it at least told a story. Lynch probably gets a kick out of being a ""naughty boy"" or the ""king of kink."" But I hope there are more important things he has to say in the future."
+2003,1,OK IT WORKS,It works. My original review was bad but then I figured it out. I just want to say it need better instructions. I had forgotten that I needed to use the connector. But not bad overall.
+2004,2,The Reference Standard Jazz Band,"If you love smooth jazz, with an emphasis on smooth, then you must be aware of the band called FOURPLAY. This live recording is proof-positive of the genius of each member of this extraordinary band. Harvey Mason makes playing the drums look effortless and reminds everyone of us when we first discovered how much fun it seemed being a drummer must be. Bob James is the reference standard for today's would-be jazz pianist, and this DVD shows off his talent very well. Nathan East and Lee Ritenour are dazzling in their performances as are the guests, Phillip Bailey, Phil Perry, and none other than CHAKA KAHN! This DVD is a ""Must-Have"" for anyone who enjoys seeing and hearing great, smooth, contemporary jazz."
+2005,1,the japanese girls,"the girls who were in the vampiric night club are called shonen knife and the song's name is ""ah singapore""."
+2006,2,Wonderful Musical,"First of all, let me say that you should probably attempt to get the entire cast recording or, better yet, the DVD if at all possible. Still, this is one of the most beautiful musicals I have ever seen, along with Notre Dame de Paris, Les Miserables, etc. The casting is, for the most part, perfect; Damien Sargue (Romeo) has a classically wonderful voice and Cécilia Cara (Juliette) has a clear, pure voice which both fits the role and is a refreshing change from the loud, obnoxious voices one often finds in American theatre.While in my opinion some of the best songs are missing, anyone should be able to enjoy this selection as well. While I'm a French major and so had little difficulty understanding the lyrics, it should help that this story is so well-known by English speakers and that the singers' voices convey emotion quite well. Highly recommended!"
+2007,1,Not waterproff,I had one it worked for a few months. It was very loud ended up placing the receiver outside on the porch. It was so loud we could hear it inside. It finaly went out after watter got in it. opened it up and discovered that even tho it has a seal the back where the screw mounting hole is not sealed. Worked for a few more months after drying it out and then quit. Do not place anywhere where it can rain on it. Suggest under a eve or inside some type of box. Its not rated for outdoor use.
+2008,1,better to sleep on the floor,the mattress is so flimsy it feels like you are laying on the metal frame.
+2009,2,Kindle,I have had this book for about a month It is so easy to use and I love the idea that you can review a book before you buy it I have used the dictionary feature also It is a bit pricey but I live in a small house and don't have storage for a lot of books and this just takes care of that problem for me I love my Kindle
+2010,1,"Its an average movie, sorry!",I don't think this movie is nearly as good as they say. I think you have to be a Travolta fan to go all out on this one. The movie is ok but thats about it. I can think of much better comedies that this one.
+2011,1,Broken,"I used it once & went to close it & it fell apart. the screws(?) were made of plastic & one fell out broken & I tried to put it back holding it together & the otheer fell out, also broken. Package had been open when we received it, but my husband gave it to me anyway. B & D are usually good products."
+2012,2,Some of the best music ever,"I heard Dobie Gray's ""Drift Away"" with Uncle Kracker over the summer and I thought it was really good despite the fact that I don't care for Uncle Kracker. I bought this CD with the feeling that ""Drift Away"" would be the only good song on the album. I was so happy to be proven so wrong. ""Soulful Sounds of Dobie Gray"" is a great album with excellent soulful music. It's a shame that music is not this good anymore. ""Sweet Loving Woman,"" ""Mississippi Rolling Stone,"" ""Love is on the line,"" and ""We had it all,"" really make this album worth the price. This is music for music lovers. It is a shame that Dobie Gray does not have the fame that others do not deserve. I would listen to Dobie Gray over Britney Spears or Madonna any day of the week."
+2013,1,Recreating yourself,A disapointing crumb from the banquet of Conversations with God series. Save your money.
+2014,2,''The Debates and the Book'',This book may not ''obliterates'' what is known about strategy but definitely is not just an additional ''improvement''. It is focused on strategy (theory) but also gives many interesting examples and cases of/for real/mental implementation. It builds a ''network'' of thoughts giving the possibility to visualize the individual ''capabilities'' in the searching of a personal ''core competence''. I think it acts like a ''strong'' or ''weak'' force for a ''continuous learning''; depends on the ''motivation''.
+2015,1,Miscast?,"The plot was OK and Tomei charming and delightful, but to say I was not taken by the appearance and performance of Downey falls within the department of understatement.My antipathy grew to where I ceased watching with the movie about 75% completed.Some one of these days, I may watch the remainder to see Tomei. GVP"
+2016,2,Amazing!,"Very easy to use and takes all the confusion out of making rice! I was a bit confused as to what was happening after I pressed ""Cook"" but Zojirushi Rice Cooker 'sang' a song when the rice was ready and it was perfect."
+2017,2,Cast Iron,"Love it, Love it, Love it. Buy it!!!!! You will not be sorry. Just follow instructions about never using soap and alwasy greasing before and after use either with oil or grease, and you cannot go wrong."
+2018,1,Not like the original!,"We purchased one of these tents a number of years ago and it is still going strong. This one arrived with cracked support rods (different material than original) and the plastic is stiff and brittle. Contacted seller about rods and they promised to send replacement. After waiting quite some time, seller advised that their supplier was out of these and issued a credit. Nothing wrong with the seller other than slow on the follow up - the product is just not the quality of the original models."
+2019,2,"most admired beatle album, though not favorite","There's plenty of reason for 27 straight weeks in the number one spot and four grammy awards. The songwriting, engineering and visual artistry were not so much ahead of their time, but rose above the standard, while doing something only classical musicians had tried to do before 1967, make a timeless definitive statement.Most popular and most mentioned songs people note, include With a Little Help from My Friends, When I'm Sixty-Four, and the darker A Day in the Life.I was always taken with the contemplative She's Leaving Home and Fixing a Hole.One thing I like about my CD re-release over my original LP (aside from the fact the LP is worn out) is that I can program out Good Morning and Lovely Rita Meter Maid. With those two gone, I enjoy the album almost as much as I do Abbey Road."
+2020,2,a star fell from heaven-a rare treasure to every music fan,"A unique and profound research work put on 2CD's trying to give the best possible insight of all Schmidt public and soundtrack performances. I have appreciated the tremendous work which the producers have put in this ao called famous"" saga"" of the wondering jew most talented tenor since Caruso . The items are all arranged in a meticulous order and the quality of recording is astonishing! A must for every music and nostalgy fum.I admire the spirit of the creators of this CD."
+2021,1,Not Recommended...,"I had a huge issue with pilling as well - it made the sheets incredibly uncomfortable, not smooth at all. Plus, it seemed to create a magnet for cat hair. After owning the sheets for six months, I just threw them away."
+2022,1,Not worth the $$,"The leather is rock hard, and the description says the lining is suede, but it's the same leather as the outside. I would not recommend this item. It feels very cheap."
+2023,2,The book club,It is a real girlie book ....and one where I could relate to the characters from people and friends in my own entourage......worth a read.
+2024,1,BAD,"Your Hair Feels like ruber (if u like that this is the product for you) I recomend Kusco and Murphy ""Beach Hair"" , That is Great but it is not sold on amazon ."
+2025,1,A True Non-Phish Experience,"""SHOCKED"" was the only word that came to mind while hearing this box set. The thought of brilliant musicians such as Phish releasing such a sloppy display of music is beond my comprehention. Sure, the set-lists look quite promising, but how does the music sound? Slopy, and loose. After attending 25 shows, I can honestly say that I would rather have a Box Set of 24 of them rather than this. I understand having a ""bad night"" on stage, but to sell it is another story. Needless to say, I look forward to many more mind-blowing Phish shows, I just can't understand why the band would agree to release these as an example of their work."
+2026,1,Change???,"Well if you are expecting to hear your straight hard driving tunes your are use to while listening to machine head your in for a surprise. This album sounds to me like they are trying to cash in with the trend that Korn and Limp Bizkit have started.So if you are into Limp Bizkit and Korn this is a cheap imitiation of their work. If you want straight hard driving metal listen to Soulfly,Pantera,Sepultura!!!"
+2027,2,Great product But....,the bench is in pretty good shape for beginners to intermediate athletes. woulda got 5 stars but one of the bench's parts came bent and me and my brother had to pound it back into shape with a Maul could have been shipping but the box was not crushed and the metal in this part is very strong. I still like the bench it is cheap in price but gets my workouts done.
+2028,2,Excellent Med School Admissions Book,Future MD is probably the best medical school admissions book I've read. I really liked that medical students wrote it and it answered a lot of my questions. I strongly recommend this book to anyone wanting to go to medical school.
+2029,2,LOVING IT!!!!!,"Hilary is really special ( like what is said in ""i am"" ) and is a great idol for kids my age! She's bwetter than Lindsay Lohan who did a movie (Mean Girls) which was inappropiate for girls who are her fans like my age (12). You can relate to hil's songs easily. Who's that girl? is the best it talks about competition and so i'm like thats exactly how i feel! im also confused right now and so i relate to "" the getaway"". its just a perfect cd! punk,rock,and a little of pop! JUST PERFECT!by the way HAPPY 17TH BIRTHDAY HIL!"
+2030,2,Great Short-Stories,"This one is captivating! These short stories are wonderful, well written with a turn at the end of each page. I highly recommend to any reader looking for a good set of short stories with mystery and murder included!!"
+2031,1,do not buy,i bought this gun and after a few use the gear box broke do not buy this gun you will only be disapointed spend a little more money on a gun with a metal gearbox
+2032,1,Please do not buy this machine!,"I bought this machine had it 3 days and returned it! It was the biggest waste of money! Could not delete from it, could not create a playlist from scratch on it, even if u could delete a song the info stayed on the machine. Not user friendly and a huge disappointment... Stick to Creative I have had my Nomad II for 3 years and still runs great! Be weary of this product!"
+2033,1,Hopeless,"This scanty little volume barely even begins to get to grips with the complexity of Rosalind Krauss's writing. It gives the impression of something David Carrier knocked off on his vacation, completely lacking in any rigourous engagement with Krauss, and full of vacuous comments like ""Hmm, Rosalind Krauss is often controversial, but she is always interesting!"" Well, thanks for that Professor Carrier, you should really do a lot better than this. Krauss is barely even quoted properly either, for some kind of legal reasons mentioned in the preface. This contributes to the lack of seriousness which characterises this slim and ultimately unhelpful study. And what's more, it costs $90!! You would be completely out of your mind to pay that kind of money for this book."
+2034,1,still waiting,"I sent my test in about a month ago. Used second day air like they recommended. I have yet to see any results. When I tried to find my test on their website, I was told my kit id was invalid. Total scam."
+2035,2,Duster is GREAT,I had one several years ago....it is about worn out so I went online looking for another one...couldn't find one in any auto store here.....but I found it and am so glad I did.
+2036,2,Don't listen to the editorial review,"This is a great CD, and in my honest opinion ""Superman"" makes perfect sense. There's nothing wrong with the ""digging for kryptonite on this one-way street line"", especially if you think about what the song is actually about - not just the difficulty Superman experiences in being superhuman, but the expectations and pre-conceived opinions that ordinary people encounter every day. The line about digging for kryptonite really is touching on the ultimate low that a lot of people hit when they're experiencing tough times, that is, thoughts of and even attempts at suicide. ""Superman"", although it uses the metaphor of a superhuman hero, is a piece that really can be extended to any person out there."
+2037,2,The Audacity of Hope,"After 6 years of cringing every time Bush attempts to complete an entire sentence, it gives me goose bumps to read someone as eloquent and as articulate as Barack Obama. Here is a man who can think dynamically about difficult issues and can lead us back to our American Dream through common sense. Now what's more American than that! Read this book. You'll be glad you did :o)"
+2038,1,WARNING- Wood Color Does NOT match picture,"WARNING! The picture is of a much lighter wood than is actually shipped to you. WALNUT is in the description and that is what you will get. The PICTURE is of am OAK or MAPLE wood. You will NOT receive that color. WALNUT is much, much darker than the wood in the picture. I know - I sent it back!"
+2039,2,Great movies that age very well,I love this box set and if you are a James Bond fan who always thought about buying the dvds now is your chance to have all of them at once!
+2040,2,Valuable for students & Delightful to read for anyone...,"This collection is valuable to the teachers in humanities classes, because it opens up their students' minds (hopefully) to the new and often previously completely unknown world of different cultures. Many best authors are chosen from each culture. All stories, without exception will bring something new to you as a reader, and the reading itself will be nothing but a sheer delight!!!! All stories will also make you think about your own culture and its values. Some stories will make you laugh, yet others will make you cry..."
+2041,2,Great Gift,"Saw this DVD on christmas morning after my father opened it his eyes lit up brought back memories for him since he got to see elvis once at MSG and when I was young i used to think elvis was my father every time I heard elvis on the radio I told my mom ""dad's on the radio"" my father could sound just like him better than most that try to sound like the king it was great to sit down with my father and watch the king once again he loved it"
+2042,1,It BLOWS,"All this is a ""fundraiser vid""... 45 measly minute intro to entice you into buying ""complimentary"" products. 45 minutes of very mediocre content for around $[...] bucks is not even close to worth it at all.Nice cover art, but far litle else...GOOD Money *far better spent* elsewhere..."
+2043,1,Disappointing - unrealistic play,"The graphics on the game are good, and as a basic poker game it passes, but if you're looking to practice your skills with this game, it disappoints. All of the computer players stay in with basically any hand, regardless of the level of play. I've been beaten by too many Two-Eight off suits to mention."

I love the plain, straight way Creflo writes and the plain, straight way he explains the complicated to be so very simple. I am so glad I bought this book and am excited to apply the Godly principles to CANCEL MY DEBT!! Thank you Jesus for ANNOINTING CreflO with wisdom in DEBT CANCELLATION teachings! - VLH"
+2046,1,Didn't Hold My Interest,"I am a long-time Kava fan and rate all her other books five-stars, no doubt. But this book I struggled with. It did not hold my attention from the very beginning. There wasn't enough there to make me want to read more. I finally stopped around 100 pages just because I found myself not caring about what happened with the character, plot, etc. I gave up, the first time I've done that with an Alex Kava book, and I feel guilty about it but I just couldn't continue. All of her other books are excellent and I was disappointed that I couldn't get into this one."
+2047,1,Poor Quality,Pool quality. Provide a better product and charge more for it already assembled.Probably my worst Amazon purchase experience ever. It will go in the refuse binat week's end
+2048,2,Good price performance ratio,The description of the book and its condition was very short but correct. The interior pages are very good (!) and the cover has the typical used look (as described!). Unfortunately the cover gets a bit loose from the inside - I was surpised. But over all the the price perfomance ratio was good.
+2049,2,Food BIBLE,"This recipe book is AMAZING. I absolutely love everything in it. New Mexican cuisine is the only way to cook. If you want some new spice in your food life, this is the way to go. Also, I love ""The Rancho de Chimayo"" cookbook. Try them both out for a fantastic array of meals."
+2050,2,Rattle and Hum BluRay,"The film is grainy and not a particular improvement over the dvd version, but the real prize here is the sound. The DTS 6.1 is incredible. You really feel like you are part of the audience of the shows clipped here. YOu feel as though you are in the warehouse for ""Desire"" and in the church for ""I Still haven't found what I'm looking for. When the film switches from the grainy black and white to the color for ""where the Streets Have no name,"" the picture quality matches the impeccable soundtrack. This is a must own for any U2 fan."
+2051,2,The Best Book In The Whole World,"I bought Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets on June 3,1999 and finished it the next day. I went to school with it and read it while having classes and the teacher always tells me to close the book which I couldn't do because it was very addictive! What urged me to buy the sequel is because a classmate of mine brought the first book of Harry Potter to school and told the teacher to read it to us everyday and I started to like it. There was a Harry Potter mania in our class! I can't wait to buy the third book of Harry Potter if their is. I hope there are many more Harry Potter books to come!"
+2052,1,Not worth the price,I use it with a Cross Gel rolling ball (0.7mm) refill. Have used the pen for about 3 months. Didn't find ink quality/flow as smooth as a Pilot G2-7 gel ink pens. Cap caused scratches to develop on the the top of outer barrel as well as the black portion of the barrel where one typically holds the pen to write.The blue/chrome combination looks good; but not worth the price given the flimisiness of the finish and quality/flow of ink compared to other (much less expensive) pens.
+2053,2,Gourmet made simple,"Wow, these recipes are simple to understand. I'm no gourmet cook and they walked me through the steps in a practical way. I particularly loved the salmon with apricots...the plank took a plain old standard and made it new!"
+2054,1,"Doesn't support Windows 7, now more than 13 months since release of this OS","Why is it that Cisco/Linksys has taken this long to support Windows 7 customers, given that Windows 7 has been on the market for more than a year. Tech support can give no guidance to when the driver will be ready. Totally unacceptable in my view."
+2055,1,Ironic,What have you shown by discrediting Michael Moore's tactics by using those very same tactics? How does interviewing people who obviously hate Michael Moore show he hates America? If you can get by this there are some valid criticisms and interesting interviews. I'd recommend renting it from Blockbuster (I did).
+2056,2,The best book on healing with crystals,"This is a great book! Thoutfully ordered, thorough and very well presented with great photography. I like its holistic approach. It is my bible for healing with crystals and I highly recommend it to beginners as well as professionals! Thank you!"
+2057,1,"Not a ""Pogromchik, but a Hero & Victim of Marxist Murderers!","The long claws of the Soviet Communist regime and its agents reached wherever they had to - in Brussels, Munich, Mexico, Prague and even Paris, right on Blvd. St-Michel itself, in broad daylight, in 1926. The murder of Simon Petliura was a cowardly act of a Communist agent and assassin, Schwartsbard, acting on orders. The Soviets, their collaborators and sympathizers worked hard to achieve Marxist goals - but in the end they failed, totally rejected and repudiated. Petliura became a national hero, and his stature only continues to grow, especially after the demise of the Soviet Union, as many facts about the assasination have come to light. Many of the old Soviet-era assumptions are being discarded as nothing but lies and fabrications. The memory of not only of Ukrainian heroes but others as well will always inspire new generations of those who value freedom."
+2058,2,Perfect for my daughter,This book is just what I needed for my daughter. It's working out much better than 100 easy lessons because she's an early read so the pictures really help keep her interested.
+2059,1,Sad but true.,"I've been a fan since the early days and I have to admit this album is the worst I have ever heard. So much anticipation built up with MTV ICON... what a let down.This album should be called the James & Lars Riff Machine. It sounds like heavy riffs pieced together in GarageBand. Three tracks at best: guitar, drums and vocals.Where is the bass and the masterful guitarwork of Kirk Hammett? NONE EXTISTANT.This album is a waist of time... sad but true."
+2060,1,KEVIN SMITH NEARLY STRIKES OUT,"Although they are amusing in small doses, as in Kevin Smith's previous movies, this movie is mostly stupid and annoying. Not that that's a bad thing; some of this is actually very funny. After finding insulting comments about themselves on a film website, the two losers head to Hollywood to stop a movie about them being made with James Van Der Beek and Jason Biggs, ""the pie f**king dude"" playing them. Along the way Jay finds true love with Biggs' AMERICAN PIE co-star Shannon Elizabeth. Put your brain on hold and you might enjoy this, I was in a more serious frame of mind when I watched the movie, but it's still much better than MALLRATS. Watch out for the expected cameos from Ben Affleck and Matt Damon, as well as directors Wes Craven and Gus Van Sant."
+2061,1,This is part of a boxed set.,"This is not a freestanding album nor should it be sold as such - it is CD no. 1 in a boxed set. (I own the set.) See the purple ""1"" on the cover."
+2062,2,This book will change your life.,"I am delighted to recommend this book and any of the Popchecks' books and cd's.I have read most of them. This work is for anyone, especially Catholics, who is trying to figure out their relationships and how they can grow in intimacy and virtue. Dr. Popchek really hits the nail on the head. If you wonder if are living in Christian charity vs being manipulated or being a door mat, I would recommend this book to you. Thank God for the Pastoral Solutions ministry and the Theology of the Body."
+2063,2,"Amazing, Emotional, SO ROMANTIC and SO TRUE !","I bought it 2 days ago, and since...I watched it 4 times in a row. LOVE IT. What a masterpiece ! And it worthes any penny ! Love it , love it, love it !!!Nancy Meyers: BRAVO !"
+2064,2,works for me.,"Just got these in today. I hand checked all 200 cases, only found 19 broken ones. Reading the other reviews I knew at least some would be broken. I'm okay with less than 10% broken. The cases are a bit on the flimsy side, but I'm not rough on them so it works for me. These cases don't seem very durable so if you plan on leaving these loose in your vehicle or giving them to children you can expect them not to last for very long in one piece.Overall, they work for me. But I cannot give this a 5 star rating simply because of the quality and the few that are broken.4/5"
+2065,1,Very frustrating...,"Wow. I just spent 4 hours at my sisters house trying to get this thing to work. I have set up quite a few wireless routers for friends and family, mostly Netgear WGR614 and Linksys WRT64G routers (with zero problems). I must say that I have never had as much trouble getting a wireless router to work properly... and even gave up in the end and told her to return it. I could get a wired connection, log in to the router do the setup and get the wireless to working until I enabled WEP, then I could connect to the router fine but loose my Internet connection. Also the web page configuration locked up on several occasions forcing me to reboot the router. It's funny how folks either love or hate this router... I guess I fall into the later category."
+2066,1,Not a good story book,"Well, here I am, after reading the book for about two weeks every morning, and I am left with no deep impressions about either Sun or Scott.The book appears to be a collection of newspaper articles. My first impression from the title of the book was that it talks a lot about Scott McNealy, which the author clearly failed to achieve. I guess the author could have rather written two books - a biography on Scott and business history of Sun. The book fails to achieve either of these satisfactorily.I was hoping to know a lot about Java and Solaris, and although there were three chapters dedicated to Java, they didnt leave a lasting impression on me. The author seems to be unaware of other battles going around which would give Java a tough time to evolve.Finally, the book doesnt really form a story. Its more like every chapter can be read almost independent of each other."
+2067,2,Amazing but watch past the first 15 minutes.,This is the best movie I have ever seen. It allows us to think more clearly about the world's psychotic obsession with capitalism.
+2068,1,Awful!,this book cost more to ship......not worth the $....couldn't return because it'd cost more....
+2069,2,coil whisk,This will work well for making gravy without a lot of lumps. Thank you for offering a chance to purchase it.
+2070,1,"Awesome in theory, but doesn't follow through.","I was really happy to receive one of these as a birthday present because I love smoothies and slushies and anything like that. I thought the spout was a great idea too. Well, it did blend well and it made nice smoothies. However, it was very loud and emitted a horrible, rubbery smell. Then, for no apparent reason, the handle of the spout broke off. Maybe it was just my model, but after seeing the reviews I've seen here, I highly doubt it. I wouldn't recommend this product to anyone. It seems to have a lot of quirks in design that need to be resolved. Stick to your regular blender."
+2071,2,Morbid Taste for Bones,"This book starts off slowly, but fans of Hercule Poirot should really like it. Brother Cadfael is an unusual detective, and this story is a real change from modern detective stories that are full of foul language and crudity."
+2072,2,This book is a great resource!,"This book, which emphasizes the unique characteristics of the gifted learner and the fact that such children are ""not a homogeneous population,"" presents a big challenge to parents looking for the right 'educational fit' for their children.But it is full of valuable information for those who seek to better understand gifted learners, intelligence testing, educational programs for gifted children and more. I highly recommend this book."
+2073,2,Dreamland and Traumland,"When ever I get boared with regular tv which is quite often I always switch to PBS. What an encounter when I watched Helmut Lotti and Michael Juinor Dreamland. The gifts that God gives us are right there in up comming stars like Michael Juinor, Charlet Church and the likes of these young people who are allready international stars and will go forth with their fortune that God has given them. Dreamland was beautiful, powerful, happy and what can I say but great. If you have a chance to see the production don't miss it. He is becomming the next Andrea Bochelli."
+2074,2,MAGIC CIRCLE is MAGIC!!!,"I love this CD! The Mamas and the Papas were such talented individual artists and this CD shows just how much work was put into their careers. Although this CD misses a lot of the greatest by the Big Three and the Mugwumps that is only available on the Big Three cd and Mugwumps only vinyl album, it does contain unreleased tracks that you can't even get on a record! I recommend this to any M&P fan or anyone who likes folk music. It is GREAT!"
+2075,1,WORST PHONE EVER,"this is pretty much the worst phone to ever exist, and i'm shocked to see that some people have actually given it five stars. i had this phone for 5 months and had to replace the antenna twice (it just broke off) and the screen froze so often, it was just impossible to use. i just got a new phone from verizon and love it. this phone is HORRIBLE."
+2076,1,Great... until it stopped working.,"Very disappointing. My only complaint at first was that my fingers sometimes brushed against and moved the setting dial but that was tolerable. Shortly after the warranty expired (of course), the iron stopped working. Like others who have left reviews, the auto shut-off began to shut the iron off randomly, and now it doesn't heat up at all. I'll try my luck with something other than a Rowenta."
+2077,1,"All color, no meat","Other reviewers seem to have found the hook of gambling away a $50,000 advance to be intriguing or fun. I think it's insane. If the author had taken the time to do a little research first and learn from some of the better gambling authors such as Frank Scoblete or John Grochowski, he could have gotten all his stories without wasting away his advance.I suppose many will find this an entertaining look at gambling society. I find it a cringe-inducing waste."
+2078,1,Kids's toy!,"Very poorly built unit. Tape deck is ok, cd keeps skipping. So i do not use cd. Lot of flutter with built in speaker. sound is not clear. This unit does come with a lot of features.. cd+g function, if the cd stop skipping, echo, Music out phono plugs. Use this to hook up to reciever to bypass the flutter problem. SINGING MACHINE manufactures better products. Even their entry level units are better."
+2079,1,"Good idea, just doesn't work....for me","My problem with these clippers is that the jaws don't open widely enough for me to get the nail in place quickly enough. By the time you get them lined up, any movement of the nail to be cut leaves you clipping air. I never was able to make even one cut so they are now in a drawer."
+2080,1,Smoke...........,"I just bought this toaster oven from BJ's yesterday...and thought would do a dry run before cooking anything in it...had to turn it off mid-way as smoke started coming out from the sides.so it is surely going back to the store.it looks good, but not when there is smoke coming out of it."
+2081,1,T-Fal Vitesse Electric Kettle - Shoddy Product,"I purchased a T-Fal Vitesse electric kettle ten years ago and loved it. This model, however, literally stinks. It has a terrible plastic smell that permeates any liquid which is heated within it. Just open the lid and take a deep breath and you realize that something isn't right. I even question whether or not it is a genuine T-Fal product since the name is mis-spelled ""Vitesses"" instead of ""Vitesse"". I hope it's a rip-off because it would be a real shame for T-Fal to be selling unusable crap like this. Made in China, of course."
+2082,1,"SIMPLY, THE WORST KIM KI-DUK FILM EVER...!","THIS FILM IS AS DISGUSTING AS IT IS MEANINGLESS AND CRUEL, WITHOUT ANYPURPOSE..!I AM SURPRISED KI DUK DEBASED HIMSELF TO MAKE SUCH A PIECE OF TRASH.!!IF HE'S TRYING TO SHOW RESENTMENT, WANTONNESS, DEBAUCHERY, LECHERY, PROFLIGACY OR INSANITY, HE FAILS TO CONVEY A MESSAGE BY MEANS OF WHIMSICAL, RUTHLESS AND CRUDE SCENES OR TAKES DURING THE FILM.DOES NOT DESERVE ONE STAR...!!"
+2083,2,Every little aid helps,"As a ""senior adult"" with both arthritis and Parkinson's Disease, I need all the help I can get. My handwriting has become virtually impossible to read because it is so small. Trying to read my grocery list in the grocery store is sometimes a real guessing game. The Pen Again writing stylus is a real help. I am still adjusting to the new finger placement, but I do believe it is an advantage."
+2084,2,Good enough is pretty good.,"Bought this telephone to replace one that quit and it was about twice the price. But I find it just as useful and do not have any quality problems with sound or operations. Don't know how long it will last, but so far it has been good."
+2085,2,"Dark, Beautiful, Twisted, Brilliant!","It amazes me that this one has remained so obscure. To me, it is his best and will be a collectible item for decades. ""Dirt"" is surely one of , if not his best, composition.The whole CD is like the soundtrack of a hardcore NYC S/M film. Reminds me of the writings of John Rechy, set to music. Buy it!"
+2086,1,One Dumb Movie!,"Dumb movie, not worth the time to watch much less pay for it. Silly script, poor acting, Gave to Goodwill."
+2087,1,this guitar sucks,The guitar did not come with all the things it said it would. The condition when it arrived was good. However this guitar is just a really really bad quality guitar and it keeps going out of tune. Its a classical guitar but it came with steel strings instead of nylon and so it just would not make a very soothing sound. Even for beginner i would recommend investing in something better. Maybe rent a guitar if you are not sure you will stick with it. Renting is still cheaper than wasting $50 on this guitar. 2 weeks after i purchased this guitar i ended up buying a yamaha spx 500.
+2088,1,Broke in two months!,"Bought this unit and didn't even run it 24/7. Came home one day and the purifiers motor had burned out. Only had it for a couple of months. Very poorly made, save you money and look elsewhere."
+2089,2,Great For Tiki Hunting,Only the cool people will get into the retro Tiki Lounge style! This book tells you where in each state to find Tiki Bars and restaurants.
+2090,2,I heart Volcom,"I am definitely the coolest kid on the block now that I own my Volcom Creedler Slip On's! Aside from being extremely comfortable, they are so hott and trendy...kinda like skateboarder chic meets sexy! When I'm wearing my Volocom Creedler Slip On's I feel like I could conquer the world!!"
+2091,2,Mavis --> There's Only One Diesel with Sidebars!,"What can you say about an engine who manages to get cheerful little Toby mad at her!Mavis is a young, feisty diesel whose inexperience frequently gets her into trouble. That said, she *is* learning; and certainly after she shows her usefulness, she becomes one of the crew. (Even though she is a Diesel they don't hold that against her.)Like all of Thomas' friends Mavis is sturdy and a great pal. She is also very useful in the development of 'made up' Thomas tales.In appearance Mavis is black with the yellow markings around her square face. In addition, and for reasons unexplained, she has sidebars and a cow catcher which is certainly not standard quarry attire. It does mean, however, that she can substitute on Toby's line from time to time.Four stars. Mavis is a nice, second-string engine."
+2092,2,Slug 7 Strikes Solid,"After all of these years the combo of Slug and Ant is a potent as ever. For all who say that Lucy Ford was the last hot album, you must not be listening to the music like the other 99% of Atmosphere fans are. On the mic slug is undisputed that also goes for Ant's production. This is a lethal album that all Hip Hop heads should purchase, Seven's Travels has the capabilities to program your circuitry. As all Atmosphere albums, Seven's Travels is the Scarface of Hip Hop, another classic. If you dig real music buying this album will not be a mistake. 100% approval rating from The Heartland. This album is The Fifth Element of Hip Hop Music. If your still not sure on the puchase go to rhymeayers.com and check the dates when Slug rips through your city to see him live for more proof.P.S. Slug, Brother Ali, and Ant are blowing up!!!"
+2093,2,If You Love the BSC Series This One's For You,"I watched these BSC videos in my late elementary school days, when my love for the BSC novels was at it's height. In Mary-Anne and the Brunettes, Mary-Anne faces off with her rival Cookie for Logan's affection. I gave this move 4 stars because, while genrally entertaining to BSC fans, others might find it too wholesome and corny. It was very interesting to see the characters in the novels come to life on the small screen. Also, I would hve liked to see something based on the plotline of a BSC novel instead of one being written specifically for the show. All in all this video is worth you half-hour espacially if your a Baby-Sitters club fan."
+2094,2,Great fun to do,I ordered this particular latch-hook project for two reasons: 1) cheapest price through Amazon and 2) lots of colors in it. It's so beautiful that my husband wants to frame it. I loved seeing those pieces of yarn form themselves into this beautiful picture!
+2095,2,"To kill, or not to kill, that's the question","This is the Batman movie I like the most. So real, like the Spiderman ones which for a moment or two you feel worry for his personal problems and fear for his safey that the hero ""may"" die. So noble, that Batman and his comrades resolved to law and justice despite the loss of love and power. However, I cant help but ask the following question, ""Can there be someone on Earth with this absolute self control and faith not to make things right with their own hands whilst facing such big evil (and risk)!"" No matter what, this movie is both philosophical and entertaining. Recommended!"
+2096,2,"Nice, thick but no edging","It's a heavy item when delivered.. so have a handtruck ready. It's a heavy plastic but there is no edging if you want it for ""water"" protection as in my wood floor garage. I'm going to HomeDepot and pick up some plastic wall edging for a few buck to ""contain"" any water that it collects. Amazing my Sorent is just 14' long so I had to get something for the last 3 feet from the door. The next size was 24' I believe."
+2097,2,Ice cream bowls,The products I ordered where just as described and received undamaged.The arrived in a timely manner as well.
+2098,2,Good stand for a decent price,"At first I thought the stand was broken when I initially tried to put it together. The part that telescopes up and down would not move, and I was about to give up and start the hassle of returning, but thankfully, I tried one final time and really put some muscle into it. It was just stuck together and once unstuck, moved freely. The rest of the assembly was easy, and so far, the stand has been great. I don't really need to adjust the height that often, so I can't really comment on the durability of the plastic screws, but it serves me well."
+2099,2,Fantastic poster for my boys!,"I pinned this poster in my boys homework room along with the periodic tables and other ""must have"" science posters. Yes, I am a nerd."
+2100,2,Works like a charm!,It was high time that I get a new coffee grinder and this one certainly fills the bill. I'm sure it will give me good service for a long time.
+2101,1,oh come on!,"Movies like this make indies look bad. If Parker Posey wasn't a pretty lady I would have never finished this film.Why would anyone want to see Tori Spelling and Freddie Pronze Jr. anyway? Despite some amusing dialogue and a few cool looking scenes, I regretted seeing this movie. It doesn't leave you with a worthwile feeling."
+2102,1,Overly formulistic,"Dispite the reviews on the Amazon web page ruining any suspense and giving away all of the plot turns i finished this book anyway. It is unfortunatly overly formulistic and extremly predictable, sadly i have read this book before in several guises. Shame it's a good title. And not a bad premise."
+2103,1,Like eating bad chips,"Nowhere near as good as ""The Snapper"" or ""Commitments"". The humor is forced and not funny, and Colm Meaney's character comes off as small-minded, selfish and mean, while his friend is (literally, at one point) little better than a dribbling idiot. Not that there's anything wrong with that as such, but the whole thing is very 1-dimensional, there's no real story, and it gets tiresome after a while."
+2104,2,works for my baby,"My little one month old is very fussy and not to mention hates every other swing or bouncer we've ever put her in. This gives me some relief when she's willing to be put in it, which makes it a 5-star for me. :)"
+2105,2,Hooked!,"I heard Crazy on the radio and was immediately hooked to the sound of this young, fresh new talent and had to have the cd. After buying it, I was totally surprised at how many nice songs were on this cd. Javier gives you such a variety of different styles. Once you pop this one in your cd player, you won't take it out! It's a must have. I can't wait for his next one."
+2106,1,Just same old...,Nothing new in this book unfortunately. A much better book on the subject is Insomniac from Gayle Greene if you want to learn about the latest research and all the treatments and other solutions available.
+2107,1,Dreadful film transfer,"MGM, the DVD distributor for The Four Feathers, should be ashamed of the shoddy treatment they have given to this magnificent film. Known for its rich early Technicolor photography, many shots in The Four Feathers are out of register and of inferior color quality. The print is also scratched and worn. The only money invested seems to be in the glossy new packaging, without a penny to the movie inside. If a film this great wasn't worthy of restoring you have to wonder what is. If this is your first time watching this wonderful film, stay away from this DVD; if you've seen and loved it before you'll shriek in horror."
+2108,1,Pretty much a miss,"Picked it up at Tower the other day ($9.99),because I like the DMB and now I see you can pick it up at Amazon for a $1.36.At that cheap of a price,that should pretty much clue you in that something was up.Not a very good outing(bad production).Murky.fuzzy.lacking in general fidelity.It sounds as if it were dubbed to death.Were these guys even together in the same recording studio ?DMB is a ""jam"" band, and this album just sounds as if that magical element is missing.When I listen to other DMB albums,it sounds(and feels)like everybody is having a good time.Kind of wooden and by the numbers on this one.When DMB is on ,they are as good as it gets,but when they are off...I wanted to pick up the newer DMB,but since Sony pulled the DRM incident,that album will not be on my playlist ANYTIME soon."
+2109,2,Essential Guide,"I used this guide when looking at schools for my five year old daughter. I found the descriptions very accurate--the author really understands the essence of these schools and appreciates the intricacies of NYC schools. If you're looking for a public school in NYC, this book isn't a luxury, it's a necessity!!"
+2110,1,"Can I give this album a negative one star, please?!","I am a fan of the Scandinavian/Nordic music, from Bjrk to Terje Rypdal, to Jan Garbarek, to Edvard Grieg. I love Mari Boine, for example. I even - kind of - like the wild women of 'The Spunk'. Looking at the 5-star reviews, I thought I'd give this record a shot. I thought, I would expand my familiarity with the music of that region...But this... this... this... is something that should be used as a background noise for interrogating terrorists - to make them confess everything in no time. They would be happy to admit anything, just to get a chance to avoid listening to this.There is nothing musical about this ""music"". Hardly any melody at all, almost no instrumentation and certainly no vocals - just mumbling. This ""music"" is unbearable for anybody who is not a self-declared masochist. If I could, I would give this record a negative one star."
+2111,1,Returned After Two Days,"I was so excited about getting a slide for my twin girls. I knew it would mean constant guidance at 15 months, but figured I'd start with the smallest, simplest, and least dangerous. HA HA! Wrong! This is very small, but too small for even this age, since they sit and their feet are almost half way down it to start. There is no platform to sit on at the top, and there isn't a railing on the slide itself to hang onto. It is so short and steep it is like a freefall and slam straight into the ground. The steps are vertical and impossible for wee ones to climb. I'm a tomboy and don't mind some thrill, but this is just poorly designed I'm going to try the Hide and Slide instead. Looks a little more gradual, like there is a railing, and claims it is meant for little ones with the multiplatforms."
+2112,1,Beware the Peak Oil Scare Mongering,"Although Ruppert seems to be exposing the machinations of the Global Elite. He is actually playing right into their hands. Rupperts entire hypothesis is founded on science that is debatable. His entire argument relies on the assumption that Oil is a finite, non-renewable, fossil fuel. This theory has been vigorously promoted by the Rockefellers and the Bushs and their like for over a hundred years. I urge all of you to at least look into the other side of this argument; That Oil is produced abiotically. The writings of Dr. Thomas Gold and Col. L. Fletcher Prouty and numerous Russian and Ukrainian scientists are helpful. I found the writings of Dave MacGowan to be the best for exposing the real agenda behind the Peak Oil movement and the science behind the true origins of oil. Here is his website. http://www.davesweb.cnchost.com/"
+2113,2,near-Classic,"Not everything works and the production is sometimes kinda cheezy (Sittin' and Thinkin'), but I still love to hear Elvis sing..."
+2114,1,sad...changed my review,This is our second Poulan chainsaw. Someone stole my other one last year from the back of my truck when I stopped to get a cup of coffee after cutting down our Christmas Tree. We were heartbroken. I have changed my review because it is the 2nd one that doesn't work after a few months. The repair shop keeps saying the carberator is messed up....we spent extra and got a more expensive brand...can't afford to pay the money and no chain saw after a couple of months....tooo BAD...I love the features and how easy it started. Won't buy another.
+2115,2,getting back to basics,"Great for removing seeds and skins from tomatoes - a fantastically immportant ingredient in many, many of our family's recipes. Also, tomatoes are an important anti-oxidant and this product helps in using home grown products."
+2116,1,WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY????,"To all. I am sorry but this book is horrible. It offers no solution's in the back, nor is there a solutions manual. SO HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO CHECK MY ANSWERS??? Please tell me. And don't say go to the office hours because they aren't always available....but get this, there is a solutions manual, but students can't have access to it because the AUTHOR doesn't want his audience to know the secrets behind the answers. The truth is, avoid this class at all costs!! This book SUCKSSSS!!! And I literally mean it... how you gonna quiz me on questions in the book that I can't even check to see if I got the answers right on the HW? SMH AUTHOR... smh. You shouldn't make this book $100.00 and offer the students few pages, resources, and good explanations to what you're trying to explain."
+2117,2,"Satisfied, Great product",Got one of these players today at Best Buy as they were out of the iPod. Can't complain I am using the napster service and for the same price as a 20GB Ipod I got a 20 GB Samsung player with 20 free Napster downloads and some nice extra features not found on the iPod.
+2118,1,"Old, slow technology","Beware, this receiver is old technology and was developed by idiots. The main issue I have with it is the horribly long time to acquire satellites, and unlike newer receivers, it doesn't obtain the programming guide in the background. So you have to explicitly ask it to retrieve the programming info, which can take 15 minutes sometimes. What idiot thought this was acceptable?"
+2119,2,Best little training journal,"For a quick record of your activities, weight, moods, morning HR......etc this is the shiznit. I have had em all and this is the one I keep filling out. The training information at the front of the book is very helpful too. The spiral binding allows me to keep the book on my desk and open to my training week.....staring me in the face, reminding me to train and fill the little pages out. I like it."
+2120,2,Gerber number 4,"I love this knife. The grip is designed to avoid slipping even when it is wet. The blade is long enough so the serrated portion does not interfere with the rest of the blade. On shorter blades the serrated part does more harm than good. The case is good, and even has a small pouch on the inside, I use it to keep my Firesteel fire starter in. This knife goes with me on every outdoor outing. It is light weight, easy to grip, and has a great blade on it. This is the fourth Gerber knife I have purchased, and like the others it is totally worth the cost."
+2121,2,Need to know RV,This is a very well produced and informative DVD but keep in mind that you NEED to know Remote Viewing.
+2122,2,Love it!,I loved watching this movie on dvd and just love the music! Now I can take it with me when I leave the house. The music is captivating.
+2123,2,I love it more than my son!,"This is an awesome product. The ants are busy and the tunnels look so cool in the gel. My 2-year old can pick it up without disturbing them too much. It comes with a little magnifying glass so you can really see how they chew up the gel and make the tunnels. I would recommend buying the ants directly from the Lifeworks website instead of using the order form, then popping them in the fridge for a few minutes to slow them down before you put them in. After that you only need to crack it open once a week or so to give them air, but they seem to go to sleep in the evenings so I don't worry about them escaping. It is really a fascinating toy!"
+2124,1,Do not buy this!,The wood-like (compressed paper) parts are of such poor grade that I find it hard to believe they were ever used for an item like this. Several of the support struts cracked during assembly. The rubber or plastic (they appear to have the properties of both) teeth that comprise the junction where this contraption is supposed to collapse disintegrated when used. This item is an utter and complete waste of money. I am surprised no-one has filed a class action lawsuit for fraud.Harvard Roll-a-Score
+2125,1,Bada BAD!,"I bought this for my cat a few months ago, because he just loves playing with a laser pointer. The whole concept of this toy was great but they should've expanded their ideas a bit more. For the size of the toy you would think that it would point further out than it does. I'm not sure about others but most cats I know like to run back and forth a room chasing the laser, maybe even jump up the wall. As opposed to with the Bada Beam that just goes in a circle, reversing its direction every once in awhile. My cat never avoids the laser pointer, when he sees that red light he jumps right up! But with the Bada Beam, he will just sit and stare at it. The whole point is so that you don't have to hold it and let the cats go crazy! NOPE! It's one thing for me to be disappointed, but it's clear that my cat was more disappointed."
+2126,2,Exactly as described...,"This was just what I needed for my nighttime jaw clenching. It was a good price, came quickly, and helps immensely!"
+2127,2,3M Privacy Screen,"I suffered from eye strain at work for years and after I purchased a 3M privacy screen, the eye strain disappeared. My husband starting having the same problem at home. I purchased the screen for him and no more eye strain! We are totally pleased with this product."
+2128,2,Very good,"I can't say it is just good,because for a used game system,it's very very good.The case of system is still like new,and battons are very well.I think I can get it by $29.99,I'm so lucky."
+2129,2,Powerful Stories,"Marijo is a gifted writer who can transport one into reflecting greater spirituality. Truly wonderful short stories that make you think about life now and hereafter, makes you see things from a different view a great read. I wanted to read more, You can actually feel what she was writing. I was sorely disappointed when I reached the end. I strongly recommend this book to anyone who likes Native American fiction."
+2130,1,Too small!,"I bought this without looking at the product in a store beforehand. My poor cat could barely fit in it. While she did her best and didn't have any accidents, I couldn't bear to watch her contort so she could do her business. An extra-large would have been better. She is not a gigantic cat, but she is not a small kitten either. I was also dipleased with the thin plastic. In addition the liners didn't fit well ... rectangular liners for a round product are not a good idea. All in all, this was a waste of money. I sighed as I threw it in the garbage."
+2131,1,Awful,I spent half an hour attempting to put them up and after cleaning the window and pressing one side then the other (maybe this side would work if not the other) well in the end they ended up in the garbage. JUNK! They will not stay on my window.
+2132,2,Time Travel & Humor,"Karen Moning not only uses one of my favorite tools, time travel, but she has a good sense of humor. Sometimes the story gets a tad shallow, but, hey, I'm not pretending to be reading Jane Austen! Moning's characters don't take themselves too seriously, which is refreshing after reading a number of Hysterical/Historical Romances. I will keep reading Karen's books."
+2133,1,ripped and are too thick,"they didn't last very long, are expensive, and don't have as much grip as other gloves I've used. I'm much happier with the $6/pair Head gloves I got from Racquetworld."
+2134,2,A book of conflicting logic for all involved,I loved all of the characters but was never sure where we were going with Manek (Mike). I wish I had know that there was a glossary at the end before I finished the book. I think the characters were built on the previous book so now I'll go back and read that one. I want more by this author - great. And were are the Parcees from?
+2135,1,Doesn't even work,I only needed 2 small lights to navigate through our kitchen to our bathroom and thought these would be perfect. I was wrong. One of them was dead! It didn't even turn on for a split second. Don't waste your money.
+2136,1,Horrible translation - Don't purchase,"Saw this movie in the theater, thought it was the most wonderful movie I'd seen all year. Couldn't wait to purchase it. Saw it went on sale, purchased it, received it, popped it in the DVD player, and noticed that the subtitles were drastically different. This link provides a good comparison between the original wonderful translation and the piece of garbage that it was replaced with:http://iconsoffright.com/news/2009/03/let_the_wrong_subtitles_in_to.html"
+2137,2,Oversized,"Excellent oversized folding chair. It took me a long time to find what I wanted and this one is great; comfortable and roomy. Its only downfall - folding is problamatic; It takes a minute to figure out to fold from the back and when propt up against a wall, it doesn't always cooperate."
+2138,2,book review,"I will keep reading this book the rest of my life. It is so rich, you can't absorb it all, only bits at a time. I love this book, every Catholic should read it."
+2139,2,Hours of fun..................,"I origionally bought this game in 2000 and played for endless hours. I lost sleep over it at times. I played off and on over the next six years. It's challenging and entertaing at the same time. My ex took it with him when he left and I found myself dying to play, so I bought this one and it has been great. I can't wait to get to the second disk and see what they added."
+2140,2,GREAT!,I bought this dirt cheap at like 26 bucks. Would definetly recommend if you can get near that price again.
+2141,1,"Sarah, you can do so much better","If you hoped that ""Harem"" would represent growth beyond the fantastic ""Classics"" and ""Eden"" CDs, you will be disappointed. We all know that Sarah has two voices. The little ""A Whiter Shade of Pale"" and ""Moon River"" voice and the classic voice that takes your emotions on a unique roller coaster ride. I don't like the little voice. On ""La Luna"" I accepted it as filler. With ""Harem"" there is no relief from the filler. There is no substance. I describe this CD as Yani with vocals. You may like that type of music, but with Sarah's talent you expect something more challenging.I have a friend who likes Yani, loves ABBA, and actually watched River Dance all the way through--twice. When he and his wife next visit, my ""Harem"" CD will be his."
+2142,2,Clever on Meth,"One of the most hilarious events in recent contemporary cool staight-up song writing, the Rugburns (Steve Polz and Rob Driscoll, et al.) deliver a pickup bed load of laughing out loud lyrics and stick in your head songs. The rugs are burning folks everywhere, and finally someone noticed. Essential. Be sure to check out the later work by Steve Polz--While Rob has directed his nefarious methodology at impressionable young citizens, Steve climbs onward with two new CDs. The song remains the same..."
+2143,1,pochohantas is bad,this movie is okay but some of the stuff in it just plain stupid. native women did not wear skirts. and thier dresses did not go above thier knees. and even if it the dress did come up high the woman would wear leggings. talking animals are just stupid if disney wanted this movie to be a good one then they should have researched native americans better. we did not talk to animals. oh yeah another thing is that native women are not tom boys and that is what pochohantas basicly is.
+2144,1,Meh..............,"With the advent of Wii, Playstaion 3 and Xbox, why would you want to play this? I threw it out years ago."
+2145,1,braindead propaganda,"The author obviously has never seen a public healthcare system. Healthcare research continues through private auspices in Europe, Canada and elsewhere despite public insurance coverage.This fantasy of a totalitarian medicare state may be satisfying for the ignorant or ideologically blind, but it has nothing whatsoever to do with the way healthcare is provided in most of the world outside of the United States of America."
+2146,2,Does the job!,"I've used this can crusher for several months, and it is holding up well and doing a good job. The previous unit I owned, which I purchased at Bed Bath & Beyond,the metal arms became bent and the unit was unusable after only a few weeks use. This unit has a much more sturdy design and is easy to operate. I would definitely recommend it."
+2147,2,easy to use and works,Very easy and safe to use (compare to using the old stone block type sharpener). Took only a few quick 'swipes' on the blade and you are done. I have some rusty garden tools and this thing saves me from buying new onesI just got it so I can't say about durability yetMy only complaint is to amazon. it took them a whole month to shipped this thing to me.
+2148,2,One of The only TWO Books to own on PI's,"Kleinert the physicist is NOTHING short of phenomenal. This book is just one of his many treatises. After reading Feynman(+Hibbs) this is the text to follow up.Sadly the second edition which is in print contain MANY typos.The third edition fixes much if not all, so skip right onto the 3rd or higher edition."
+2149,1,I like wierd....but....,".....this just did not feel comfortable. The rubber strings felt,...well like rubber. I had to use baby powder to move up and down the strings. They were sticky and kept falling out of the grooves on the neck. I have heard some people really like this bass. I would suggest find it in a local shop and test it and go home and think about it then come back and test it again. I purchased it on line and got stuck with it because too much time went by, so I could not return it. When I traded it in I only got $75 for it. Good luck."
+2150,1,MAD,there were broke parts as soon as i took them out of the box and some do not even stand without support!!! detail is great but the rest sucked!!!! and it took like 2 weeks to receive!!!!! ill post a video review soon
+2151,1,Short but Not Sweet,"I recently purchased the book ""The Random House Book of Fairy Tales"", thinking that it would be a good representation of some of the most famous fairy tales in history. While the selection of tales was very impressive (and the reason why I felt comfortable buying this book) I was very dissappointed by how the stories were edited. I felt that the endings came abruptly and that parts of the body of the stories were trunkated and at times disconnected.I would recommend searching further if you want to find a more throrough representation of these selections."
+2152,2,What a Relief,"I use this device almost every day. Because I work out of my own home, several different phone numbers funnel into my home. So I get a range of unwanted solicitations.Installation was extremely easy. It worked immediately.I still try and tell the salesperson that I am not interested, but if they don't pay atention and continue on their spiel, I hit the button and let the machine take care of it. The message from the machine tells them to take you off their calling list, and maybe even that works, because I don't get calls from stockbrokers anymore, in my experience they were the worst.In short, its a piece of technology that makes your life easier and lowers your stress level--a rare combination in my experience."
+2153,2,LOVED THE BOOK ENDED TOO SOON.,"it transported you to a time and place you might not ever experience in our lifetime. IT was an easy read, very enjoyable."
+2154,2,Himalayan Cats,"I purchased this book because I bought a Himalayan kitten. I have to wait one more week before she's able to leave her mother. The book was very helpful by telling me what I should and shouldn't do with a new kitten. The book gave alot of information about how to care for the cat thoughtout her whole life, not just another kitten book. I will not be selling it because I think I will be looking for it though out the years. It also had diffirent chapters explain what to do about breeding, grooming, and other things I needed to know. It is also written very clearly and easy to read. I was very happy with the book."
+2155,2,Read Suspicion First,"This book has the same two characters as Suspicion, Kate Logan and Mitch Calhoon. I would recommend reading that one first. Kate Logan an attorney is asked to represent Todd Buchanan, a man being sought for the death of his wife Molly. The problem with this is that Molly was the sister of Mitch, Kate's boyfriend. It all started with two people agreeing to meet in person after they first meet in an internet chat room."
+2156,2,Just a Memory,The best way to relive all the fun you had watching this wonderful show. Memories of the perfect group. Makes you laugh and cry.
+2157,1,Typos and sloppy editing galore,"This edition is replete with ridiculous typographical errors and I therefore cannot recommend it. For example, in the essay on Robert Clive, his name appears as ""Olive"" in several paragraphs and as ""Clive"" often on the same page. Every essay contains similar errors. Several headings are missplaced. There is no information on the editor of the text and next to nothing on the publisher."
+2158,1,For beginners,Im very disapointed. I needed a really dictionary - and I got a dictionaryfor beginners or for readers of children-books.Its not fair that Amazon don't write thatAnd as I am only supported by Amazon in my Kindle - please get a gooddictionary!! In fact I need it - when I use my Kindle outside my home :)regardsLeif O. Dahl
+2159,1,So Far two that were bad,"This is a great movie, it's not the movie I am having problems with, it's the distributer. I would like watch it at least once from my orders because I ordered the DVD twice and both didn't work and I tried on several DVD players. I am going to try one more time, hoping, maybe for the best, but, probably will get worst, if you get my meaning."
+2160,1,A Little Good and Lots of Bad,CC had a couple nice songs from long ago which are included here but the rest of this is a mess. The other songs are horrible! There is a reason we never heard from him again. Get it for the hits but don't expect much else. Disappointed!
+2161,1,"Paid for new received used,","I ordered this book mainly to bring my order over $25. I paid for a new book but received a used one. Customer service kindly refunded the charge. I was pleased with their prompt response. The book itself is not as cute as I expected based on description,"
+2162,2,outstanding,"After TSA broke my first travel golf bag; after extensive research I bought this one. Rolls well,travels well,TSA approved. My clubs reached my destination in one piece and secure. Locking device could be more secure. American made and $1500.00 assurance if damaged is a great piece of mind. I spent good money for my clubs and I now have great travelling protection. I would recommend this item.SKB 2SKB-4814W Deluxe ATA Golf Travel Case"
+2163,2,A breath of fresh air,What a hero l wish that I lived back then a happy ending. Great story line. Seems like you were there.
+2164,1,Poor quality,"My daughter was not at all interested. Is it poorly made. ""I"" have difficulty tying the laces and the snaps were plastic. I was very dissapointed so I returned it."
+2165,1,Poor plans,"Most of the plans in this book are completely unintelligible. Avoid this one, there are MUCH better books out there."
+2166,1,don't BOTHER,"JUST ONE WORD ""GARBAGE"" i AM GLAD i ONLY PAID 20 CENTS FOR IT AND THAT WAS TO MUCH DON'T AND I REPEAT DON'T BUY IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
+2167,1,Does not ring true!,Mineko Iwasaki paints herself an old soul even as a mere toddler.As a tot she was witty and wise and insightful and sensitive... almost ethereal... need I go on? (She does!)But Mineko also felt the need to constantly retreat to the closet.Something just doesn't ring true.I found her story very hard to believe. She remembers more about her life at age three than I remember about last week.As she ages she comes across as narcissistic and shallow.This reminds me of those Tiger-Beat type biographies written in the 70's and 80's about famous teen idols.The book just doesn't ring true.
+2168,1,Did not meet expectations.,Hopefully this is not the last recording he ever does because this is easily his worst.
+2169,1,A truly terrible movie!,"This is easily the worst of the Lethal Weapon series. By this point, the interplay between Mel Gibson and Danny Glover is annoying. Joe Pesci is irritating, not funny. The script and characters are politically correct, and not realistic. Finally, the language would make a sailor blush. The only redeeming feature is the bad guy."
+2170,2,�Shapeshifter� an album that begs to be listened to,"In a time when a lot of music seems manufactured, Marcy Playground has managed to write an album with unique style and dazing melodies. ""Shapeshifter,"" the follow up to their self-titled CD ""Marcy Playground,"" is an eclectic mix of soulful acoustic grooves combined with just the right amount of raw rock and roll. Intelligent songwriting, exceptional music and a feel-good vibe makes ""Shapeshifter"" an album that begs to be listened to over and over again. Tracks like ""Rebel Sodville"" and ""Pigeon Farm"" show the bands diverse music style and the song ""Never"" lays down true heart-felt modern rock with that inimitable sound that Marcy Playground seems to manage. A great album and must for any true music lover.Todd Mills"
+2171,1,Looks Good but...,"This product looks great and makes good coffee. However, it's very cumbersome & difficult to use. In addition to some of the comments in other reviews, mainly the frustration of not knowing how much coffee is left in the pot, it is almost equally as hard to determine how much water is being poured into the machine in order to make coffee (there is no labeling on the outside). When we initially purchased this machine we found it annoying having to lean over the top of the machine to see the labeling for pouring in water (number of cups), now the numbers have worn off completely so it's become a guessing game. It also is difficult to pour water into the machine from the craft without spilling it all over. My husband and I both regret purchasing this product."
+2172,1,Event Horizon by any other name,"How can people get away by taking a great story, change the venue and consider it original. Isn't that what so many B-grade movies are? Event Horizon - a classic. The best Sci-Fi Horror to date. This a cheap rip-off."
+2173,2,PASSIONATE LOVE,"THIS WONDERFUL LOVE STORY WAS TRULY AMAZINGLY BETWEEN LORD MILSTEAD ""FITCH"", WITH THE LOVELY VIRGINAL HILLARY, WHO WAS RAISING HIS CHILD, HE NEVER KNEW ABOUT, TIL NOW. GOOD READ!!!!"
+2174,2,"Half good, half bad","I was actually pretty excited when I first heard that SYOTOS was going to get remixed. But then I got this nice fan-pack, and was sadly dissapointed.Disc 1 - ""Chopped""The songs are remixed, and this DJ Mike Watts or whoever, just slowed down JD's voice. It's really annoying. It's not all a waste though, he did do a good job of remixing the songs. Just the slowed-down vocals ruined it for me.Disc 2 - ""Screwed""The second disc is what saved this from being a complete disaster. The live tracks are awesome. And I was thrilled to see that my favorite song from SYOTOS, ""Love Song"", made it onto the tracklisting.Disc 3 - ""Live & Unglued""The DVD disc. The animated ""Liar"" video rocks, plus the videos for ""Twisted Transistor"" (the full 7 minute version), and ""Coming Undone are on here as well.Disc's 2 and 3 are the reason why I gave this pack 4 stars. I would give it 5, but I can't listen to disc 1, even if I tried to ignore the hideously slow vocals."
+2175,2,Great for adults and children,"I have a translation of Homer but was not able to finish it. I got the Kindle edition of the Children's Homer and I'm still reading it to my five-year-old. I've finished it myself. It is fairly easy to read once you get used to the thees and thous. Of course, the subject matter is violent but for boys who watch Transformers and Ben10, it is definitely acceptable. It is a good introduction to Greek gods and goddesses, to the ambiguities of war (eg how Helen sympathised with Hector) and even family values."
+2176,2,Sagacity,"This is amazingly insightful, user-friendly, and reasonable information about women, health, emotions, families, cultures and the world."
+2177,2,bedroom farce,"i really enjoyed this video have seen it 3 times now each time finding it more hilarious.tells the story of three friends looking for love 2 gay guys and thier female flatmate.excellent preformances from all the cast especially simon callow and hugo weaving.if your looking for a good laugh,heartwarming story get this video."
+2178,2,Z Best,best for the last 4 years I bought 8 so far for gift to professionals captains like me who wanted it
+2179,2,Six stars please.,"I'm not a professional reviewer and my views are entirely my own; that said, could I please give GEORGE AND THE VIRGIN more than five stars? This is a charming, very clever little book. The protagonists are likeable, the plot is simple but fun, and the humor often unexpected. This is one for my keeper list. It's for those days when the carpool has run late and my mother-in-law drops in for supper. But can we PLEASE do something about the dumb cover?"
+2180,2,Micro mouses are great,"These little mouses are great. They don't last very long, but they work well in my application. I buy lots of them so i always have one when the buttons stop working or the wires break."
+2181,2,Words of a Teacher,I used this book as a resource in my visual journaling class. We found it both valuable and fun. A great addition to our library.
+2182,2,The running around is in the first scene only. Excellent DVD,"If people are having doubts wether to order this DVD because the critisim that there are 'hundreds of extras flitting about like idiots', then reconsider. This only done in the first scene (outside in the street). I've seen Dario Fo's 'L'Italiani in Algeri' performed in the Amsterdam Music Theatre by the Netherlands Opera, so I knew what to expect: a very entertaining, artistic and beautiful performance. If you prefer (very) oldfashioned stagings of operas where people behave like statues while singing their arias, don't buy this one. If your looking for a very original quality product, get it now. Especially it this price!"
+2183,2,Delightful Surprise,"I was browsing the list of audiocassettes and happened across ""Three Tales of My Father's Dragon."" I read the other reviews and decided to buy it for my son (who is 4). We absolutely fell in love with all three stories! We listen to it ALL the time! We leave one cassette in the house to listen to at night and one in the car. We have had the tapes for two months and have not tired of listening to them. My son just laughs and loves all the aspects of these stories. The acting of all the characters is so vibrant and you quickly realize that each character has his own distinct personality and voice! I would HIGHLY reccomend these stories! They are fantastic!"
+2184,1,What a waste!,The authors were very wise to retain their anonymity. This at least leaves some room for speculation about the specific parentage of the worst stories - in a body of work that was bad to mediocre at best. The concept may have sounded great - but the end result was a total disappointment at every level.
+2185,2,Great Cookware!,"I haven't had this pan very long, but so far, I am very happy with it. I'm impressed with the 25-year warranty on the non-stick surface, although I only use plastic or nylon utensils. It also washes up very nicely, and the food really doesn't stick."
+2186,1,Freezing BluRay,"The series got my attention with the artwork on Pandora Satellizer but I rapidly became disappointed. The storyline is well worn anime territory. Boobs and girl-on-girl degradation became just plain dumb. The old ""beat-to-death then come back even more powerful"" was used over and over. The ending indicates a second season but it will have to be really cheap before I will consider entering this storyline again. The blue ray picture is nice. If you like boobs popping out all over then go for it but, maybe I'm getting old, I want a quality story for my time and money."
+2187,2,Let's Have It on DVD Please,"I saw this movie many years ago on late night TV and it made an indelible impression. Later tracked down the book by former actor, Tom Tryon. A fine piece of atmospheric rural horror. Creepy as hell, with some great unsentimental twists. Director Robert Mulligan served the story well. Love to compare my memory with an up to date viewing. Let's have it on DVD one day soon please. I'm afraid VHS is a sunset (or sundown) technology at our place."
+2188,1,How to earn money with seven habits...,"The seven habits is a great book, the others repeat the same thing, in more pages. Autobiography from Covey could have this title : ""how make money with seven habits """
+2189,2,A group of artists finally finds it's footing.,"No band has meant more to my development as a professional musician than Genesis, in all of it's incarnations. The original five-man line up could be epic, smart, and ambitious, but let's face it, as musicians they couldn't compete with the likes of the '73-'74 Crimson or any version of Yes. The four-man Genesis made good on the individual instrumental promises of the Gabriel-era Genesis, but somewhat lacked the cohesive progressive feel of the earlier band. After two haphazard albums, the trio version of Genesis showed us the band's most authoritative and musical statement with Abacab. This is Progressive Pop at it's finest. The tunnel-visioned need not apply."
+2190,1,"Hardcore Fans, beware","I originally intended to purchase this book along with the two others that came out on the same subject. The West Wing is my favorite show, and I consider myself a very hardcore fan, one who can quote long phrases and cite details, if awoken in the middle of the night. This book has more errors in it than a 7-year-old's essay, and I felt I'd be better off never turning my eyes its way. It's just upsetting how little the author paid attention to what's going on in the show."
+2191,1,Not a really good fit,"I bought these because they were supposed to fit my car (Model 2 for a 2012 Ford Edge). They required a lot of trimming and fitting. I did save some money as compared to buying them from Ford, but I don't think the savings were worth the effort."
+2192,1,Cheap Chinese plastic junk.,This is an other example of cheap Chinese plastic junk passed as a useful item. It is particularly sad that such rip off is perpetrated on those who can not see well.
+2193,2,Easy to clean,i bought this to help keep my ipod and imac clean and i've been pleasantly surprised so far. it does a good job of cleaning off loose dirt and keeping things looking new. it's pretty straight forward and easy to use. i'd recommend it.
+2194,1,Pinzon 400-Thread-Count 100% Egyptian Cotton Hemstitch California King Sheet Set,"These sheets are ok except the pillow cases are ridiclously narrow. I can't use them at all. That makes me feel I wasted my money, even though the sheets themselves are ok.Pinzon 400-Thread-Count 100% Egyptian Cotton Hemstitch Queen Sheet Set, Smokey Blue"
+2195,2,Very good book!!,"I like the way this book is put together but it only has 150 dog breeds. It lists everything you need to know about the breeds in a concise format. The only other thing that I can think of that it could use is a few pages that has all the dog breeds and even smaller details such as weight, height, area of origin, date originated, and other things like that. So that way you wouldn't have to read through the whole book if for example you wanted a small dog. It could save alot of time. Other than that this is the best book I have ever seen. Nothing has been missed with the breeds in this book."
+2196,2,You Can't Go Wrong with Max and Ruby,Great book. My kids love Max's mischief. I have 4 children and I was an early childhood teacher for 10 yrs. Max and Ruby stories are loved by all.
+2197,1,"Typical, boring, mainstream, etc.... no saviors of rock here","holy crap i listened to some of these songs on napster and i got a headache and almost went to sleep. Boring, boring, BORING! Even the ""heavy"" grunge tracks are boring. All the tracks are typical mainstream rock songs. Im sorta a fan of Rage, their alot more energetic and have more EXCITING guitar riffs. If you want real innovative, rock music check out PRIMUS (all hail les claypool, best bassist ever), Dream Theatre (cool prog rock), Red hot chili peppers (the masters of funk rock), Lostprophets (their kinda mainstream but at least you can listen to it without being bored), and for harder stuff definatley older metallica and for metal the swedish band In Flames (awesome guitars and singing) THIS IS CRAP"
+2198,1,Monopoly is boring but educational,"It's a LOOONNNNGGGG Drawn out game that can get REAL boring. Best if played with 4+ people, NO fun at all with 2.It's an age old game....it's stayed on the market for a reason. I like it, but with a bunch of people and not kids, the kids just get too bored."
+2199,1,What?,"Okay, first of all, I like seahorses. And I wan't to learn more about them, but this toy seahorse is not of much use to a thirteen-year-old hopeful writer.... Zachary B., 7th grade"
+2200,1,"Ms. Palmer, Shame on You!","Not one of her best efforts, and I have read all her novels to date. The characters are under-developed, the passion superficial, and the stories are trite after a fashion. This book provides just a glancing taste of future novels as yet to be written by this author. Mediocre read."
+2201,1,Never received and seller never responded to inquiries,"Seller never confirmed shipping of CD thru e-mail.Upon inquiring as to why CD was never received, seller never responded."
+2202,2,Loved this movie.,"Abhay Deol has emerged as one of the most understated actors and his choice of films bear testimony. This movie is about a thief in Delhi who enjoys stealing things from their houses.I enjoyed watching this film although I though it kind of fell apart in the second half. However watch it for the acting, if only."
+2203,2,A solid and comprehensive guide to group work,"Now in an updated and expanded fourth edition, Group Leadership Skills by therapist and group work consultant Carolyn Chambers Clark is a solid and comprehensive guide to group work and organization, which was originally intended to be used as a text for nurses, then became expanded so as to be applicable to all business and social circles. Individual chapters address group problem solving, qualities needed from an effective group leader, the importance of recording and analyzing group processes, working with focal groups, and much more. Group Leadership Skills is very strongly recommended reading for anyone whose personal or professional activities involve them in group work situations or scenarios."
+2204,2,needed for college,This book is required reading for me and really helps with my knowledge base in taking this class for school.
+2205,2,The Encylopedia of all true Magi,"This book really deserves far more stars than I can give to it. I use it daily since I first layed hands on it. If you don't have it and call yourself a magickian, then you had better get it before you are called up to answer. I use this book for every magickal ritual that I do. It contains a complete list of all correspondences that one could ever want. Plus Crowley gives a deep explaination for each of the attributations. It also contains a very in depth section on Gematria, which is very usfull. Also in this book is the Sepher Sephiroth, which lists out the values of various Hebrew words, which is essential for proper understanding. I have read through this book more times than I can count, yet I always have something to learn from it. This book is not an option. Any practitoner who is performing without this text is severly limiting himself."
+2206,1,Not Happy,"Ordered the children's size gloves for my 8 yr. old daughter. No size indicated on website other than children's size. When I got them it was marked children's size 4-6. Way too small. Next size would be a ladies small, which would be way too big. Ended up returning item on 1/24/11. As of 3/3/11 the refund has not hit my credit card.Also, much thinner than I would have thought. All weather? I think in winter it would not provide enough warmth."
+2207,2,High Interest Reading for Teen With Limited Literacy Skills,"From the back of the Pacesetters edition -Mystery In New MexicoSomeone or some thing was in the ruins. Was it a living person? Or was it a kachina - an Indian spirit?Whatever it was, it had tried to kill Ray Brant and Black Bear. And it would try again unless it was stopped.The Pacesetters series is high interest reading for those who have literacy problems, or who just have a reluctance to read. The reading level for these books is between 2 and 3. Many of these books are mentioned in reference material concerning High/Low materials."
+2208,2,"pretty great, a little loud","We live in an old house that the previous occupants smoked in (for 40+years). For obvious reasons we needed an air purifier to help battle the odor (even after painting). The Honeywell HHT-011 seems to work great and I hope will help deal with any mold spores floating around. Other reviews were correct: It isn't the quietest, and sounds like a fan. The sound is consistent, though, and it becomes white noise after a few minutes. It's been two weeks and I think it's helping! Four stars only because of the sound..."
+2209,2,Perfect for our office,"We had a West Bend Urn for years (nobody seems to remember how long for sure), so I knew that it would be a good brand to look at for a replacement. Just like another reviewer commented, this is REALLY light-weight. I was actually pretty concerned that they wouldn't hold up with the two warehouse crews that I was getting them for. No problem. Whatever this is made of is great. It's working fantastic... the guys love that they can choose the level of coffee they need (we never have the same number of guys on the crews each day). The guys rave about the taste and the fact that it doesn't have a scorched flavor even later in the day. The cost is not that much more than a small pot (and now I'm thinking that my office needs one.)"
+2210,1,NO GOOD,Waste of my money!!!! first it took longer than usual to ship than when i got it the nail polish seemed used when i order new because the top was dried out already on top of that it wouldn't shatter i thought maybe i applied it wrong but i tried the black shatter n it worked perfectly i've used the black shatter before never a problem but this one seemed water downed nail polish.
+2211,2,Delicious and always fresh,My husband has diabetes and has been ordering these for a few years. The sugar free peach rings are difficult to find in stores in our area. They are always fresh. He orders them every six months.
+2212,1,Overrated,"This book is completely overrated. The jokes were cheap and obvious, and the advice was poor at best. The only decent message from this book is that pregnancies are different. She tells stories about 4 or 5 of her pregnant friends that are good examples of this, but the friends seem made up just to illustrate the point. Overall I found it to be a real downer. There's a lot to laugh about during pregnancy, but this book doesn't really capture it."
+2213,1,Poor razor,"Look, the strop was satisfactory, and the sharpening stone (really by Ichabod Conk Co. - they've their own website) was satisfactory. Service was fast.The particular thing above has frustrated me so much I write about it. After attempting to strop and hone the thing - and believe me, I spent an hour watching videos to-day, just to make sure I was doing the right stuff - the blade was still DULL. Try shaving with a kitchen knife, get it?"
+2214,2,3 month old daughter loves it,I put this on my babys belly while she's in her Snugga bunny swing and she would play with it for a but and fall asleep. Great toy for her to feel the different textures.
+2215,1,This movie is a waste of thyme!,This movie has no plot. Cows eat grass. So should this movie. It sucks
+2216,1,Dyson does not work,The Dyson Canister Vacuum failed to perform any better than the 15 year old sears canister we were looking to replace. The suction driven rug beater did not have enough power to work on our dense woven rugs. We returned our Dyson.
+2217,2,Power Rangers DVD,My 10 yr old searched the internet for this find and I was glad to order it. It arrived promptly and in described condition. We are very pleased with our purchase.
+2218,1,Intersting idea that doesnt fully come to life,"I wanted to like the book having gotten a favorable review from a friend whose tastes I am sympathetic with and the fact that it was based in Manhattan and Brooklyn. It appeals too quickly to set pieces that are supposed to evoke the ambiance, then goes on to describe what has already been evoked, e.g., the 25 year old financial company whizkid, the nerd etc. But having said that it held my interest in terms of the intersection of old and new ideas and mysteries. I would have liked something more Borges-esque or Auster-esque, but in the end it was a quick airplane read, similar to Da Vinci Code but without the bigness of idea."
+2219,2,Filler for free shipping!,"While I added this item to my cart primarily to take me into free shipping awesomeness I did appreciate that this item isn't complete junk. It's actually useful for hanging stuff on your walls. Of course they leave little pinholes where you pinned something up but it's small enough not to matter. Price is good, items works as described. NO com"
+2220,2,Delightfully Fun Read,"Funny and quirky, Ms. Pearl-McPhee's Knitting Rules is the inspiration I've needed to finally take out my knitting needles and the yarn I have stashed away. Ms. Pearl-McPhee has broken knitting down for me and made it seem less intimidating."
+2221,1,Too loud and not accurate,My Lamello bisquit joiner was expensive but it delivers so much more accuracy and it is much more quiet than the DeWalt. This DeWalt plate joiner looks just like my DeWalt angle grinder. The DeWalt Grinder is great because noise and accuracy don't matter when grinding metal. But for fine woodworking an angle grinder design won't cut it - I prefer the Lamello.
+2222,1,Burned out and burned up!!,"I purchased this Skil 3.6 volt battery charger in late June 2004 and received it in early July 2004 and put two batteries into it immediately. I had three old batteries and two new ones, and none ever became charged. When I checked a day later, the charger was burned out--the transformer/power adaptor was swollen and the unit was dead. I was too unhappy to do anything about it at the time--but I still need a charger and I have not seen one anywhere except on Amazon. So I guess I will have to order another one. The original one I got with the screwdrivers lasted for over 10 years so I was shocked and surprised to have the new one go out immediately.John Kelly"
+2223,2,"Excellent ""Modern Day"" Blondie!!!! An Excellent CD!!!!","There have already been plenty of reviews on this one, so I'll just mention a few things. It contains 14 great songs. I really liked the first one ""Shakedown"", Debbie really gets into this one!!! Other songs I liked include: ""Good Boys"", ""Undone"", ""Background Melody"", ""Majic"", ""End to End"", and ""Hello Joe"". Basically, I liked all the songs, it's great from beginning to end.Some of these songs are featured on the Blondie ""Live by Request"" DVD. These songs are ""Good Boys"", ""Undone"", ""End to End"", and ""Hello Joe"".Overall, this is a great CD containing 14 great songs, and I highly recommend it. Thanks!!!"
+2224,2,I'm sobbing with job here.,"FINALLY they release these DVDs. I have the first set and now my life will be complete and have meaning!Party at my place, you all bring the donuts and coffee and I'll bake the pies."
+2225,2,Turrentine bring us Irene Cara in her best moment,"As a Irene Cara fan since a couple of years ago I decided to order it. Ok, I'm not disappointed. Let's talk about an AWESOME album... There you'll find a precious stuff from early 80's and songs whose rhythm will remember you very much of songs from the original FAME movie soundtrack. It's jazz and listening it you'll be sure that Stanley Turrentine was a genius. ""You Can't Take My Love"" (performed by Irene Cara) and ""I Knew It Couldn't Happen"" (performed by Derald Conway) are the best songs and sound us like a classics taken from synthesizer era. The others are instrumental songs arranjed by sax but so much enjoyable as ""I'll Be There"", for example, which bring us an unforgettable team of backing vocals. If you like synth, 80's songs and related things I'm quite sure you'll love it!!!"
+2226,2,Fir those not wanting to read a TON about this album,"For those not wanting to read 12 pages about this album.Read this. Its a very melodic and great NIN album. The lyrics are in rule in power to this album unlike past albums where it was a combonation of creative music and lyrics. Trent did a great job with ""right where it belongs"". The plot of that song pretty much sums up the albums plot and overall message. In other words its worth the money. Seeing is u can find that amount in change in your couch."
+2227,1,Inedible.. even Mikey didn't like them!,"Before you read this, I highly recommend Just the Cheese's mini rounds in the same flavor. I DO NOT recommend these bars. If I could have given them zero stars, I would have.I thought these would be great.. I love Jalapeno, and I love cheese.. what could go wrong? These bars could and did! They are extremely hard to bite into. I worried about cracking my teeth on them. They taste like jalapeno flavored salt blocks.I gave them to a friend of mine who eats anything and everything (Mikey Jr!). He didn't like these either. He's going to try breaking them up (I assume with a hammer) and put them in his next batch of chili. I wish him good luck. I suggested that he use them for repelling pests in his garden.I wrote the company, and they sent me some samples of the mini rounds. I was skeptical, but they are GREAT! I'll order those next time.. they are not too salty, just the right amount of crunch, and taste great. They have 5 or 6 flavors and I like them all."
+2228,2,pretty good.,I love the warriors seires but know there difrent I liked it better when Fierstar was the main cat. I dont like how Fethertail dies and Stormfur changes to stay with the tribe! and Graystripe gets taken by people. I wish that the cats did not have to leave the forest! Erin plese go back to Fierstar!
+2229,1,Pretty Pathethic Zombie Movie,The best part about this DVD is the cover art. After reading some reviews where people talked the movie up it's B grade at its best. Looks like it was shot using a handy cam and very B grade acting. No new takes on anything.Basically involves a few interwoven stories of groups of people hiding and trying to survive with a zombie epidemic.A couple of scenes worth watching for the slice and dice but a big let down story wise. Personally I'd rent it - you wouldn't watch it more than once.
+2230,2,Can't put this book down!,"Gripping tale of an amazingly brave and spirited woman living in a culture of unbelievable oppression and cruelty simply because she was born female. Sigrid brings you into her world with great detail. It is a rare glimpse into a mysterious culture few of us can even imagine. You feel the characters frustration and pain and hope with great clarity. I cheered for her and cried with her! Sigrid has a wonderful writing style that keeps you on the edge of your seat wanting more. Literally, I fell asleep at night with this book still in my hands."
+2231,2,Accurate and Concise. Rely on it before I Buy. Collector,When I need to know Manufacture dates and model differences and values I rely on this guide. Covers rare/common and hard to price American and European models. Has a cross Reference for makers and serial # made on dates. Shows the listing of model variations/dates/serial # runs in a series of gun. All one needs is the Gun in hand or complete list of features to determine Model/Type & Era. Each listing has the wording on the barrel of each model it covers to determine the type. No guide can be complete end of story. This gude takes you where you need to be to determine Type and value.
+2232,2,"Comedy, laughters, and more",This movie is a great movie. It made me laugh so hard that my face just stayed screwed that way for some minutes. At first I mistook Toru Nakamura for Takeshi Sorimachi but hehehe...They both look nice...p^_^q. I love how Toru Nakamura's character is calm. And Daniel Wu looked adorable with that smile of his...
+2233,1,Boring,Nothing new here. Huge disappointment. Letters are all clichéd generalizations. Sure wish I had my money back.
+2234,1,Don't waste your money,"I have a great, patient dog who stood for hours while I tried to put this on her - okay, maybe not hours but it took forever and it never did work right. Poor design. Lousy instructions. Don't waste your money."
+2235,1,Creepy,"When I saw the Mother holding the 20 year old son, I really didn't know what to think. I was oddly creeped-out and I am a very open minded person. I ended-up throwing this book away. I know, SHAME!"
+2236,1,Terrible for countertops,"This is a terrible product for countertops. Did not deter my cat one bit from climbing all over the counters - I saw her walking around on them like it's nothing. Worst part is that after the thing failed to do any good I spent the better part of an afternoon scraping sticky residue from all my countertops - these strips do NOT come off clean, at least from the average grade kitchen counter surface. Tried a number of kitchen cleaners and they're still sticky. Can't say how well this works / how easy to remove on other surfaces, but for countertops, it was no good for my cat. If you still want to give it a try (cats are pretty different when it comes to this kind of thing) I would suggest covering the counters with tin foil first and putting the strips on the tin foil. That's what I wish I would've done (other than not shelling out ** bucks for this in the first place)."
+2237,1,Nastiest thing you'll ever taste,"The 'little' series is usually pretty good, but this is an exception I've found. My wife, wanting something less nasty than milk of magnesia to help our 2 year old have a bm, brought this home. ""It tastes like chocolate"" is what she said, trusting the label. Our innoccent son tried it and then choked and threw up. Poor guy. I tried it later.... man, was it nasty. It says to 'slowly' administer it to inner cheek. I don't think many kids would go for this. The only way would be mixing it into something already strong tasting and only a few drops at a time. The best is to modify diet and lots of fluids, but good ol milk of magnesia does the trick when you need it."
+2238,1,You get what you pay for,"The old rule of thumb holds true for this trimmer. It's on the inexpensive side, and deservedly so. The rotary blade mechanism is mounted on a plastic bar that is not held firmly in place, therefore causing varying results.The value you find in this item depends on what you want to do with it. If you want something that cuts things for arts and crafts, and you are not finicky about how straight it is, then this item is for you.If you want to cut photo prints or artwork and require a true straight edge, you will be very disappointed with this item. I also own a Fiskars product which works much better for photos. Dahle makes nice trimmers as well. Both have securely mounted metal bars that the rotary mechanism is mounted to and therefore are much more accurate."
+2239,1,Frontline Causes Seizures,"My dogs have been having seizures on an almost regular monthly basis since they were 4 months old (they are littermates). I only started recently searching about the relationship between Frontline and seizures, and there are SO MANY people whose pets have had seizures from Frontline. Your vet will deny it but there are too many people who have reported it. Sure enough, I realized my dogs were having seizures 1-2 days after each application of the preventative.This product may work well on some dogs, but for mine, the evidence is clear and the Frontline has been causing seizures in my dogs.I'm switching to a gentler, natural brand."
+2240,1,Poor product,"The binding does not lay flat and the material is not soft, but actually is so stiff is makes noise you move it. I am considering returning it. It's a cheap product that I paid a lot of money for."
+2241,1,ugh,Half of them came broken. That was a waste of MONEY. Never buying from this company again. I have better luck buying them from the store.
+2242,1,I emptied my retirement account . . .,"my IRAs, all of my savings, my children's college funds and my 457K to buy ""Fretless Bass"". It came out to be $100,000.00, so I still have a penny left for retirement.I was severely disappointed when it arrived. This is false advertising,I wanted fretless bass to be added to my koi pond, because the other bass in there are severly traumatized, and swim in a fretfull manner. I threw ""Fretless Bass"" in, but it immediately sank to the bottom, and all of the other fretful fish are feeding on it."
+2243,2,As described,Wedding favors for a 50's themed wedding. Big hit with everyone there old enough to know what they were.Popped up the center of the lid and used the box as centerpieces on the tables. They looked great.
+2244,2,Great Show,"We live in Portland, so its cool to see our city on a Nationaly broadcast show. We really like the characters and the story line. I hope it has many more seasons to come!"
+2245,2,This is great movie,"I've seen the movie in fact I've bought a local CD of the movie. but I intend to make a long time collection of this series so that I can share it with my children and maybe grandchildren. That's why I still ordered the DVD from amazon.com.It is a nice movie to watch with my family. We can discuss it and share the great experience. The movie, though so many interesting parts been omitted from its original story, still have a great fun with lots of laughter to share and some emotional parts that one would prefer to watch it alone. It pull lots of emotions from the audience, the joy, suspense, irritated, superior, pity, fun etc. out of us.My children love it and I hope they could learn emotions and the facts of life that lies behind each of the characters."
+2246,1,Hide 'em in your Heart,"Great way to teach children scripture.I use these when telling Bible stories to my preschool class, the songs compliment the story.I also play it as background classroom music."
+2247,1,Description is WRONG,"While the title AND description state this will work for the 2003-2008 models (Toyota Matrix), it does NOT fit the 2005 Matrix. In fact the directions state (EXCLUDES 2005-2008) WHAT???? Why is that on the instructions but not updated in the title and amazon description.Sending it back for refund."
+2248,2,Suspense thriller...,"Trapped, while not the best example of acting by Kevin Bacon, it proves to be the opposite for Charlize Theron. A kidnapping for ransom that has a bit more going on. Once again I am very impressed with young actress Dakota Fanning. There are some suspenseful and clever moments and a few ridiculous ones. But the emotion is what does it for me.A not so typical family responding to a terribe situation in a less than typical way. They don't just take it even though the circumstances require their submission to the events taking place. Sure, there's a happy ending, and I like those, but for a while you're not really sure if that's how it's going to work out. Some mystery. Some time to wonder and worry. I like that too."
+2249,1,Army of Dumbness,This movie was absolutely the dumbest horror movie ever made. I suggest For any who thinks this is scary to watch The Excorcist. Then you'll really get the hell scared out of you.I have to admit though that the movie did make me laugh and nobody could've made it better than Bruce Campbell. This movie might have made it bigger if it was located in the comedy section of a video store.
+2250,1,Do Not Buy,"The marketing for this product is very misleading. It leads one to believe they are purchasing an actual road map with supporting documents on how to develop a school. This is not the case at all.The depth of topics is very shallow. It is essentially a collection of paragraphs on all the various aspects of creating a school. Furthermore, it is not well put together or professionally presented.This product is an absolute waste of time and money."
+2251,2,Simple yet beautiful!,This is definitely a great book to add to the arsenal. I am early to moderate advanced and I love this because it is easy to pick up and play with minimal practice but the arrangements are lovely and flowing. Highly recommended.
+2252,2,My Pup Can't Get Enough of Them,"My Rottweiler is allergic to almost every animal protein on the planet. So far, he is doing ok with whitefish and salmon. That is why this treat is so good. It does smell strongly of fish, it smells good. Its got a crunchy texture, its unlike any other pup treat I've found. My pup loves it, when I take the bag out of the pantry he runs to the kitchen and sits for his treat. Don't even have to call him.The 28oz resealable bag is great, the treats last a long time. If your pup has allergies, you may want to think about giving this one a chance. Guaranteed, your pup will love them."
+2253,1,What's All the Fuss About?,"A handful of reviewers (including, surprisingly, David Hurwitz of ClassicsToday.com) gush like schoolgirls over this recording, but the actual experience falls way short. Janacek's Sinfonietta requires a powerhouse virtuoso orchestra, which the Czech Philharmonic isn't. The most striking music of the Sinfonietta--the opening brass fanfare and its fully-orchestrated version at the end of the piece--are hideously out of tune, with poor tone qualities to boot. Bad intonation and ensemble are the rule in this digital tragedy. While the disc benefits from the two lesser-known works by Martinu, it's still not worth the price. There are dozens of better recordings of the Janacek (like the Chicago Symphony with Ozawa and Vienna with Kubelik), so spare yourself the sore ears and buy elsewhere."
+2254,1,weak writing,"I do not understand how one becomes a bestselling author writing rubbish like this.My complaints are not so much about the story itself as they are about the prose. There is nothing fresh about this book. The prose is cliche, predictable and lacks depth. Therefore, if you are cliche, predictable and lack depth, you will probably love this book.There are so many amazing writers out there, I do not recommend this one."
+2255,1,Avoid this . . . stuff,"This is an astonishingly lame, poorly written and shoddily researched book. I've read a number of books about the iLife software, and this book is a rehash of Apple's Help files and product announcements, with the quotation marks filed off. Do yourself a favor and look at Pogue's individual books for each app, or Teach Yourself Visually iLife '04 for a basic intro. Avoid this one--it reeks."
+2256,2,It does what it is supposed to do,"This device has performed flawlessly. The device does feels cheap though. I did not have a Canon model to compare it to, but I would imagine that it feels similar. The device fits securely in the camera jack and allows you to auto focus by depressing the button half way. It has good 'action', I have only accidentally depressed the button too far once while trying to auto focus. It also has a shutter lock button which has proven useful for long exposure night shots. Wish I would have bought the longer cable."
+2257,2,Brain Dead Souls,Great episode. I'm completely hooked on Walking Dead. This show has got me dreaming about zombies. I can't wait to see the next episode.
+2258,2,keep em comin',"even though they are all ""B"" songs from the self titled album and Toxicit, who cares this CD is still awesome!"
+2259,1,Foundation Dreamweaver UltraDev 4,"I usually like the tutorial style of the Foundation Series. In this case, however, the authors didn't reveiw their tutorials as thoroughly as it is required so as to not confuse a novice. There are errors in the code, some of the completed files that can be downloaded don't work (Chapter 7 files are a good example) and sometimes, filenames are mixed up or not even mentioned so that one has to add a significant dose of imagination to figure out what the authors wanted to say but never quite got done saying. What a waste of my time!"
+2260,1,Let Down once again!,"My favorite Jet is an F/A-18 E Super Hornet! But i was hoping that Digital Integration would have done more than creat a game with only good ideas.Graphics are poor period!I have read the readme file and tried to slow down features on a already poor graphics situation and it still locks up sooner or later!I'm running a G-Force II with an Intel Pentium III and a Full Sound Blaster Live. I have no problems with any of my other games.If only they would have made this NAVY Flight sim as good as Falcon 4.0.As far as the Hornet world is concerned,""Janes"" still is number one!This game is a bummer and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone since the company couldn't write the program to make it worth much!Marc :["
+2261,2,What Jerry has always said--this time in print,"Anyone who has followed Jerry's post-Dean Martin career knows that he has ALWAYS waxed sentimental about their tenure as the world's most popular comics.He has always credited Martin for his (Lewis')show-biz breakthrough,always played up Dean's lack of recognition as ""the greatest straight-man that ever lived"" and has always blamed himself for provoking the split.I agree that Dean would probably never have chimed in with the same level of sentimentality,imagining a mid-90's talk show appearance together,but Jerry has always been the tear-jerker with his loving tales of the Dino years--and it continues to shine through in this brief but touching example of Jerry's humble, humanitarian side."
+2262,2,Great product,"There special made for bose speaker (201 and 301 series) the price is great for what we get, come with hardware"
+2263,1,Lame as hell,"A classic? Are you kidding me? This album is one of the lamest pieces of sh*t I've ever heard. Seriously, at this point int time Rap A Lot was putting out a lot of garbage for friends of the Geto Boys to ride their coat tails, ie, Too Much Trouble, The Terrorist, Gansta Nip. Geto Boys were great, but their friends who wanted a record deal based off of their name were some of the biggest no talent hacks I've ever heard in my life. Rap A Lot records tried to capitalize on their name and in my opinion ruined the overall reputation of the label. Generic as hell and just plain lame. I wonder how long they had to search the ghetto of 5th Ward to find a white midget to cop off the fame of Bushwick Bill...""if a midget is good enough for the geto boys, a midget is good enough for us...but let's make ours white so people won't think we're ripping them off""...since people won't know we're riding their coat tails by referring to ourselves as THE BABY GETO BOYS"
+2264,2,A Field Guide to Eastern Trees,I bought this for my husband for Christmas. He was blown away by all the information this little book contained. The only thing he said that he didn't care for was that some of the pictures were in black and white and he would have prefered all colored pictures.
+2265,2,Alice,It has been many years that I have been waiting for Alice to come out on DVD. I hope they continue with the complete series!
+2266,2,AT LAST!!!,"Finally, Universal is going to release this masterpiece on DVD in August 2010!! This will be great news for the many folks who've been waiting for years (see reviews) One of the greatest flying movies ever made."
+2267,2,just a great powder measure!!!!,I bought this for our second possibles bag for my 54 cal Thompson Hawkens. It does exactly what I need it to do and for the price just cannot be beaten.
+2268,1,JUNK,"I had this drive for about 9 months, using it as a backup. It suddenly it stopped working, and I received an error message that the drive was not recognized. Needless to say, it was filled with very critical data, which cannot be recovered. I am very disappointed with Wester Digital. It is horrible to make a product so cheaply, which people rely on for such critical use."
+2269,1,Low Quality Filter,The white filter has an inferior quality to the one that came originally with the machine. It broke totally when I tried to wash it first time. That did not happen to the original one even when I washed again and again. I wonder if the replacement is fake.
+2270,1,Awful,"This product is fragile and completely ineffective. I bought two and both fell apart within months after no more stress than simply moving them around. Not only were they fragile but they barely work at all. There was little difference in the quality of the signal received with the antenna than without it. Simple, cheaper, rabbit ears worked much better. This product is a COMPLETE WASTE OF MONEY! I have rarely been this dissatisfied with a purchase. I wish I could give it ZERO stars."
+2271,2,I love it but hate that you bumped the price up at Christmas!,"This product is perfect for the doll that my granddaughter has from Ashton Drake. The mobile came broken, but we called the vendor who the crib was shipped from and they are sending another one out."
+2272,1,"""Alex is fun, the Book isn't""","Having lived in the DC area I enjoy Alex Cross and his working environment.But I feel this book is disappointing. In general I do not care for Patterson, though I thought ""Mary, Mary"" was quite good.."
+2273,2,It's what I expected,"I was pleased with the content of the cast recording. There's plenty of music and enough dialog to tell the story. If you like the Four Seasons or even like musical theater, you can't go wrong with this."
+2274,1,Bad DMD Board - White dots on screen after 3 years of light use,When I first got this TV I loved it. But after only 3 years of light use I am experiencing the white spot problem that many Samsung DLP tvs have. I see about 25 white pixels over the image and they are growing in numbers each day. Samsung recognizes the problem for other models but not this one (HLT5676s). I called Samsung and as of now I am responsible for the repair. I will never buy anything from Samsung again because they do not back up their product and recognize that they have a problem.
+2275,1,blank (silent) spots,"The DVD is defective. It's annoying to listen to a musical number, and watch the singer move his/her mouth soundlessly. I think I'm finished with Amazon, and I hope you enjoyed this review."
+2276,1,Clever but...,"...the darn thing had to be replaced twice in 6 months because it cracked on the bottom, dead center, and the milk I was measuring leaked out.I love the idea, though."
+2277,2,MASH is a Smash,I am thoroughly enjoying this COMPLETE collection. How nice to see all the scenes that were cut from the TV airing. I agree with other reviewers that the packaging is attractive but not practical. The box is heavy and I didn't want to take the chance of scratching the DVD's so I transferred them to DVD envelopes.
+2278,2,"Brillant, best buy for saves the day fans!","Excellently written both musically and lyrically. True it is different from the other albums but like people, band's music evolves and this is good example of that change.Any Saves the Day fan who can understand that will love the new album. On first listen I couldnt decide whether this was an album I would love but after the second listen I found myself humming the tune and singing along. A more mellow sound but still captures Chris Conley's outstanding talent and the band's quality of music is still as incredible as always."
+2279,2,review for pictures of hollis wood,My name is Dashauna. I'm 10 and yrs. old the book I read is called Pictures of Hollis Woods. I like this book because it is very interesting. I like the part when Hollis Woods was in first grade and she was told to draw pictures that begin with w. I liked it because it was funny. It was funny because she thought hers was going to get an A. Then the girl who got an A and was happy and Hollis used a black crayon to mark an big x on her paper.
+2280,1,Didn't Catch A Thing With It!,"Despite the absolutely horrific smell I didn't manage to catch any flies. I guess it's meant for a horse stable that is over run with flies, but I'm dubious. I live on 5 acres in horse country and although I have no stables my neighbor does. The trap didn't work near my house so I hung it from a tree near my neighbors stables and still nothing. I bought 4 of these traps but threw 3 in the trash."

+2282,1,Is this a joke?,"I can't believe how bad this novel is. Koontz does everything a bad writer does - from poor character development to cornball horror to pages of explanation when the plot can't suffice to create a story. There's none of Koontz' trademark dialogue, no building of tension. Just a boring series of stereotyped situations and characters.This must have been a writer's inside joke. Or maybe he just wanted to see how many critics would call it a ""tour de force"". It doesn't show much respect for his reading audience, however. I just had a hysterectomy and chose this dependable author to take my mind off my early recovery. Can't trust him any longer, however. From now on, I'm reading reviews before I buy anything by Koontz."
+2283,1,Does not fit all Casio EX Cameras (at least well),I bought this as a gift for Christmas and when we tried to put the camera in it was too tight. If you made a great effort you could get it zipped.Camera is an EX-FH100
+2284,2,Worth the money,I had it for a couple months and so far its definitely worth the money. I just wish I could hang it on the wall but thats a personal thing.
+2285,2,It took me back to my Childhood and touched me...,"Reading this book and being from Central America took me back to the place I came from and remember all the stuff that my Dad and my Uncles used to do. I feel like I was reading part of my life. It made me cry, it made me happy, it made me sad....I think its a great book and I definitely recommend it!"
+2286,2,Great magazine,Have been reading this magazine for years. Always find interesting articles in it. Some great advice which has saved me money and aggravation over the years
+2287,2,Betty Crocker Cooky Book,"Fast shipment, easy to find what I wanted. It was a gift for my daughter. Just what I ordered.....used but in very good condition. My daughter was very happy!"
+2288,2,Extremely helpful,"The title of this book is misleading. Yes, it is about ""How small business trades worldwide,"" but it's also about so much more. A better title might be: ""Absolutely Essential Primer on Starting a Product Based Business (No Kidding!)"".In a extremely clear and engaging style, Spiers brings the reader step by step through the entire business process: product conception, getting feedback, essential research, sourcing, and bringing the product to market.No, I'm not a friend of the author; and, no, this is not a paid endorsement. I just found this book incredibly helpful and practical. If you are at all interested in starting a product based business, I highly recommend this."

+2290,1,"Derivative, Pointless, Commercial,... man from Stoke","Robbie Williams indeed has a huge ego. Considering his serious lack of musical talent it is difficult to know why he thinks his mediocre trash is indispensable listening for us all. The point is, who needs this filling the charts when there is so much genuine talent out there that needs some airplay. The production on this isn't bad, songs like 'Angels' are decent... but most is UNentertaining drivel. Please refrain from buying this record and getting him the superstardom in America that he is craving."

+2292,1,Malo,"Los zapatos son buenos pero escogi mal el tamaño y no los pude usar, calzo 42 y estos son grandisimos.Ciro"
+2293,1,This is absolutely awful,"My heart breaks for all the children of people who believe this insane advice. This book starts from the view that all people are born ""bad"" and must be molded into a decent human being. The Pearls seem to believe that hitting is a good way to do that molding.They even suggest using a ""switch"" or a stick on a 4 month old baby!?! That is simply cruel- there is not other way about it.I think that it is terrible that these so-called Christians are preying on other's fears of their children not becoming good people.This is definitely abuse!"
+2294,2,Awesome read!,"I had never heard of this book before and simply picked it up on an impulse. Boy, was I lucky! Fannie Flagg is an amazing author. I sunk into the world of the book everytime I picked it up and by the time I was done, Idgie, Sipsey, Ninny and the other characters had become a part of my life!I would have given it five stars but for the totally predictable and cinematic ending. Nevertheless, it was feel-good - so am not complaining too much. Overall, if you would like to transport yourself to another age and place right from the comfort of your arm-chair, Fried Green Tomatoes would be a very good choice indeed!"
+2295,1,Awful Experience,This Microsoft mouse stopped working after 4 weeks. The wireless connection would drop off. The rubber sides have started to wear off. I had the Logitech Cordless Notebook mouse for 12 months and it still works great. I am going back to Logitech.
+2296,2,Garmin GPSMap 76,"The GPSMap76 is a great unit! More functions than I'll ever be able to figure out how to use. Contrary to the what the writeup says, the unit does fit into my shirtpocket. So far, only two shortcomings. 1) Not rechargeable (2-AA batteries) and 2) the manual seems sparse on details of ""how to"". All-in-all 4 stars. A REALLY GOOD UNIT!!"
+2297,2,Second to none!,"I have read this book over and over again to absorb all the information! It is so good and contain a wealth of information. Comparing it wit the books by Danja and Annmarie Kohler, Mark Webster and Jim Church's book on composition, this one comes in as a clear first. Mark Webster's book is a relatively close runner up, but it is Marin's book that always join me on my trips and elsewhere. Photography in all books is good but Martin provides the most and best information. Jim's book is a waste of money compared to the rest. Overprized with very little hard info. Just a ton of mumbojumbo. The book by Koehler is ok, but way behind Webster, and in particular. Edge's books! Get it and love it!"
+2298,1,Big Valley Season Two,"Wrong disk was sent. I ordered Season Two, and received Season One.The refund process went smoothly however..."
+2299,2,INCREDIBLE,"I don't know what these reviewers are talking about. First of all the package is by Philips not Sony. I don't hear any hiss at all when I listen to it (is this reviewer talking about the right one?) Also I think the comparison with Gould is bad. These partitas made little impression on me when I heard Gould play them. When I heard Tureck play them it was like a revelation. She plays Bach with a soul, they breath and live. Listening to these recordings brings in euphoria. These recordings are some of the most beautiful I have in all my piano cds. They are like magic. I have lots of other Bach cds including Gould and Fischer, but these partitas are what I come back to again and again. I don't want to criticize Gould on Bach because he is a genius; but if all you heard is Gould then you don't know Bach. Gould and Tureck play Bach differently and they are both worth hearing. Sorry my personal preference for Bach is this CD, It is my favorite. Strongly recommended."
+2300,1,Save your money. This text is uninspiring and uninteresting.,"This is one of the few cookbooks that I have purchased (my collection is in excess of 500 volumes) that I have found to be totally disappointing and uninspiring in its content. There was not a single recipe that I found even remotely tempting. Not one that I was interested in making. Nor was there any useful information imparted vis a vis cooking techniques. Save your money, look for something else."
+2301,2,Log cabins and watermelon seeds,"Teri Christopherson owns up to very eclectic tastes that ""change with my mood,"" and this book reflects that variety. What unifies it is a very definite bent toward traditional quilt designs and a love of rich, warm color combinations. The thirty patterns presented in this book are selected from the designs of the Black Mountain Quilts pattern company, and range from the whimsical to the very elegant and subtle. Although traditional, these quilts display lots of new twists, such as the ""Watermelon Picnic"" quilt, which uses log cabin blocks to depict watermelon slices. The photography is superb, the instructions meticulous, and patterns include table runners, pillows, and tree decorations as well as quilts. Both appliqué and pieced techniques are featured."
+2302,2,A touching story,"This film features Judi Dench and Maggie Smith at their best. This is a touching and sad story of two sisters whose quiet and ordered world is set reeling by the arrival of a young stranger when he is washed up on the beach near their lonely cottage.During the film we get to meet many of the neighbors and friends in the area, and experience the anxiety which the boy and another newly-arrived girl engender in the inhabitants of this pre-World War II Cornish village.The setting for the story is beautiful, and the emotional scenes are well balanced by some lively humor. The film ends with some vital questions left unanswered, such as where did the lad come from, why was he washed up, why was he going to the USA, etc. However, despite this, the film is exceptional and charming and will be loved by anyone who enjoys period British drama."
+2303,2,Great Value,Way better than the electronic sorters you get for the same price. The coins sort very quickly with ease and jams are infrequent. The few times a coin has jammed I quickly tick the crank in the opposite direction before continuing without any further complications. I purchased this as a birthday gift for my boyfriend who always has change lying around the house. It works much better than the other sorter we had in which the coins ran down a track and were constantly jammed or smaller coins would go into larger rolls. Good value for the money and very easy to use.
+2304,1,"be carefull , this it for turbo model ( GST AND GSX )","i bought this fuel regulator and didnt work on my mitsubishi eclipse 99 rs(420A), so i wrote to standard motor products and they told me that some mitsubishi eclipse use a standard fuel regulator PR328.I wought the PR328 and its exactly like the oem part , so be carefull when you are buying replacement parts for your car."
+2305,2,Just about completed the Barbie collection,"My 5 year old daughter loved the Barbie movies and I do like what they teach. This one is no different. Protection of nature vs. ""progress"""
+2306,2,joseymo,"I ordered 2 Santa Fe Quesadilla makers, one for my daughter and one for me.She had visited a friend in Arizona who had one and made quesadillas while she was there. When she came home and told me about it, we immediately got on the Amazon website and found them. We have since received them and rave about how good they are and fun to use with great results."
+2307,2,"Canon Mini Tripod 7 is a ""STAR""!","I needed someone to hold my camera one day and I was the only someone there. Lost the shot. I searched and found this little gem. Sturdy, well constructed and small as can be. I carry it in my ""go"" bag and never notice it 'till I need it. It's there. Easy, fast and reliable. Great purchase!!! I wish everything I bought worked for me this well!"
+2308,1,Just Stopped Working!! Wasted my Money - Twice!!!,"In a 18 month span I purchased two of these. Both of them broke within 8 months. They work amazing when they work. I was using them while I worked out and jogged on the tread mill. It was nice to run and not have to hold your iPod while running or have a cord dangling in front you.The unfortunate part is the blue tooth connection stops working within six months of using them. After my first one broke I liked the product so much that I decided to try it again (hoping that the first one was just a lemon). However, I got the same result the second time. The bluetooth connection between the headphones and the receiver stopped working.Don't waste your money on this product. Please learn from me and spend your money elsewhere."
+2309,2,The Empty Mirror is Full of Thought and Artistic Vision,A truly brillant treatment of the subject. Goes deep into the Philosophy and motives of Facism and Nazi Racism. All Words are Hilter's own (!) taken from various sources and acted superbly by Norman Rodway. This makes the film so interesting. Freud and Hitler spar in a interesting postmodern dialogue. Hope it is on DVD soon!
+2310,2,Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass,"Product in great shape (purchased as used book), bought for my son to read and take to school as a summer reading assignment. Could not find the book locally. Cost of book bargain. Received in 6 business days."
+2311,2,Great For My 5 Year Old,"Look, I got this for my 5 year old son who likes to play 'hiking' with his own gear. I wouldn't hike out into the mountains with it and trust it completely, but it does seem to work well in our house. He likes the bright colors and that it comes with a string to keep around his neck. I will order another one for my daughter who wants to play too. I would recommend to anyone because of the price, but if you are looking for a 'grown-up' one, spend a little more."
+2312,2,Interesting but translation makes it difficult,I found it very interesting but the translation into English makes it difficult. The difference in culture also makes it hard to understand and often must be re-read to fully grasp the message.
+2313,1,God Is Closer Than You Think,"I believe I was mislead. I ordered the material. The description described that I would get the DVD, the Participant's guide and the hardcover book for the price of the item. When just the DVD arrived I felt disappointed."
+2314,1,Never imagined I wouldn't like a Bruford CD,"As a big fan of Bruford (Earthworks, Crimson, Yes, UK, Bruford) and Levin (Crimson, Gabriel, Lennon, Liquid Tension Experiment, Bozzio Levin Stevens) I figured that a live double disc with this awesome rhythm section would be stellar... how wrong I was. This music is nothing like the ensembles mentioned above; it is very weird avant-garde improvisational jazz. Not that there is anything wrong with that... if you like Mingus, Dolphy, and Coleman there may be quite a bit to enjoy, and maybe I just can't appreciate this style of music.I have listened to this at least twenty times; therefore, this is not my initial reaction to this disc... for me there is nothing enjoyable on this CD. I would recommend any of Bruford's work mentioned above, but pass on this unless you're a fan of this type of music."
+2315,2,Great no non-sense book.,"I received this book some time ago thinking it was just another ""others doing a better job than me"" book. I recently starting reading it and found it very good for providing a sound approach to raising my own children."
+2316,1,Disappointment,"I was so excited to get the DVD, but was quickly disappointed by the content. I expected to be viewing the conference and to my surprise it was only the Intro by the Producer, Scene Selections, Bonus Features and Credits. I never really got to see the conference itself. The precessional was good and Dr. Bynum's singing glorified the presenting of the art, but absolutely did not satify my expectation of this DVD. I have many other older and newer DVDs of Dr. Juanita Bynum and her husband Bishop Thomas Weeks, III that I am overjoyed with as well as books from the both of them. Again this DVD was a HUGE DISAPPOINTMENT! If you are looking to be moved by the message, please do not purchase this DVD."
+2317,1,eeeeehhhhh,"Heard this book was linked to Mr. Obama, so thought I'd read it. The book is old, written in the '70's. Some of the language that was slang back then is outdated. Some of the examples of causes given in the book (integration, unions) have gone by the wayside.The lessons taught in the book are about stirring the populace into action using the tools at hand (people and time) if a community organizer does not have power or money to affect change.The good ""take away"" lesson learned from this book is what a community organizer does (I had no idea what that meant during the last presidential campaign).Would not recommend this book as a good bedtime read. ""Radicals"" of today need a more modern book!"
+2318,1,Wrap falls off the tree constantly,I bought this wrap because one of our kittens outside like to use the trees as his scratching post. All this did was give him something to play with after he tore it off and for me to clean up.I tried everything and every trick to keep it on short of glueing it to the tree.
+2319,2,again,"Again Dr Rewald is preventing us about misunderstanding the environment, and how this human behavior could be lethal.I agree with him;and recommend the book to every openminded person whose interest is the humanity"
+2320,1,This Book Says Nothing and Offers Less,"If you want to spend 10 dollars to learn absolutely nothing this is the book for you. Yes, its full of psycho-babble without any substance like many books written by so-called experts on the internet era. In this case, the author's prose shows a complete lack of any writing ability much less any understanding of how to run a business.Ask yourself this before you buy this book: can somone whose company had to file for bankruptcy protection really give any valuable insight into how to successfully run a company? I think not."
+2321,2,Bicycle built for two,"2001 is one of those movies that have to be seen - and when people do see it, they either love it or hate it. I fall in the first category.The story has inspired many different TV shows - including X-Files, Simpsons, Futurama and Batman (cartoon) episodes. It's written very well, and told as only Kubrick could tell it - with parts that both confuse and captivate.Do yourself a favor and rent it, at least. Whether you love it or hate it, you'll at least have something to say when people discuss it.P.S. I guarantee ""Daisy, Daisy"" will never sound the same way again."
+2322,1,inadequate disclosure,Received the book in a timely fashion but the CD-ROM and the Timeline were NOT included. This should have been clearly stated in the listing! The Timeline was to be a 60th birthday present for my twin sister.
+2323,2,Recommended reading for medical students,"This book should be recommended reading for all medical students, and every American. This book simply disproves all of the propaganda of the AMA, and the big money drug corps who make windfall profits to keep you sick and drugged up. Just buy the book, it's well worth it, and worth more than any book in any public school system anywhere."
+2324,1,disappointing :-(,"I am a Donny Osmond fan (he was great in Joseph), so having to give his latest album this low of a rating is painful.Donny is a wonderful singer, but his voice cannot shine through when it is covered up by the dismal pop-music orchestration. All of the songs (Except the duet with Rosie) are classic showtunes, and deserved a larger (not necessarily full) band or orchestra to back them up--*not* the electronic mishmash that they actually received.Call this the album that could have been...And go listen to Harry Connick's newest album."
+2325,1,really good until the last bit (no spoilers),Sound of My Voice was really good and really original but the ending ruined it all for me and made it so i won't ever watch it again.It's like the cast tried really hard until the last twenty minutes where it pretty much just stopped having effort put into it.The plotline is pretty cool though its about investigative journalists getting involved ina cult for report purposes but eventually find themselves in over their heads. It's not scary or a thriller or action packed. It's just a somewhat unnerving note on cults.i highly recommend you rent it or get it from the library first
+2326,1,hollywood waste of time and talent,"harrison ford is playing a over the hill grandfather of a cop in his 60's moon lighting as a realestate salesman and the handsome josh harnett playing the doof partner.get a real storey with substance, harrison ford does have a fan base, but stay away from the hip hop element or sound track, it just annoys people seeing that in a theatre.harrison ford get a face lift, ya look like a worn out old man !"
+2327,1,Speechless...,I'm only about 20 minutes into the film and I can already safely say that this is by far the worst adaptaion of a novel into a film that I have ever had the displeasure of viewing. Do yourself a favor and buy the novels..
+2328,2,Enchanting children's book,"I like reading this book. I like saying ""Ten Nine Eight by Molly Bang"" as we start. What a name the author has, and what a talent for making a simple book so engaging! The illustrations are comforting, with a continuity from page to page that is a nice touch. Also, since the father and daughter are African-American, this book brings a welcome diversity to the home library."
+2329,2,Gets the job done,Worth the money. Pleased with the results! Head is not as long as an alternate product we found but it works well just the same.
+2330,1,wrong size,I ordered the large size but received the regular size for dogs 25-50 lbs. My dog is 75 lbs and needs the other size.
+2331,2,:0),"I am just starting to read Catherine Coulter's novel for sometime now and I thought this one was pretty good. What I like about it the most is that she's telling 2 stories in one about the brother and sister but its mainly about the sister. WHAT i also like about her books is that she gives great details in the beinging of the book and doesn't jump right into the story, I loved Adam and Rayan story, also Arabella and Kamal and the great details she gives for both stories. I got angry when Arabella did laugh when she did and dislike kamal when she did and fell in love with him when she did THATS how you know your reading a good book when you feel what the the 2 people are feeling where your understanding his point of view and her point of view.. The book is very good you might read a couple of bad reviews but its that 1 or 2 review that is good that is going to make you want to buy this book...go for it I think you will love this book."
+2332,2,Excellent for anyone with orthodontic equipment,"The good: it's extremely easy to use even if you have a permanent retainer or braces installed, has an impressive battery life, and is far faster than flossing. At under $10 for 30 disposable tips, the tips may seem expensive at first. But it's far cheaper than going to a dentist or orthodontist later when you're having problems because you were too lazy to use regular floss.The bad: the size & angle of the device may make it difficult or impossible for you to reach the rear teeth. Depending on whether you've had your wisdom teeth removed or not, expect for 1 or 2 teeth to be unreachable & require regular floss."
+2333,2,decent helmet at this price range,Helmet is 304 grams. Not the lightest but at this price is a good every day use bike helmet. One major complaint is that the ear strap twists below the ears. It does not rest flush to the face and is annoying. No way to fix this problem. Poor design. Also no reflector stickers on the helmet or straps like other helmets in this price range. Mine arrive with some dents and scratches. Also the straps do take some adjusting to make it fit right.
+2334,1,product is awaful!,I orered both catridges and the color cartridge was not recognised and the black smeared as it printed. They sent me two new ones and the black cartridge ran out of ink after just a few pages. Dont watse your money
+2335,1,A whole lot of nothing,"What a waste of money! I bought it because of ""Fly Away"", hoping there'd be some other good songs. i was very wrong. Don't get me wrong, I still liked ""Fly Away"", but the other songs were terrible"
+2336,1,It's an ok game,My son and I didn't find this game that great. It's only 1 player which doesn't make it any fun if other people want to play. The controls are very touchy and it's hard to figure out what direction your supposed to go.
+2337,1,price gouging,for those that are considering buying this copy here...don't. the exact same book is being sold through barns and nobles website for $17.98. why is this copy being sold with a $10 markup?
+2338,2,Good purchase decision,"After reading reviews and buying tips on Amazon, and reading Consumer Reports, I decided to buy the Samsung 611. I haven't played a ton of movies, but have tried Gladiator and The Matrix. There was only one very slight skip on the Gladiator in a very unimportant sequence. Other than that it has played flawless. I'm not sure why the quality seems to be so hit and miss on the 611 and 711, but my unit is great. I love it. It is quite full featured, has all the options and more that a typical movie watcher would want, and it's a fantastic price. Everyone needs a DVD player!! This one is a good choice."
+2339,2,I don't know what to say,"I silently absorbed all of this work and just came away with such empathy it's very difficult to express it. It is a good manual to prepare you for such procedures. Too much to say about it, my words fail."
+2340,2,Citizen's Eco-Drive Watch,Got this watch as a Christmas present for my brother and he was very happy with it!!
+2341,2,Simply wonderful,I love this pan. That's about all I can really say. I use it daily. It's one of my favourites and I will always be thrilled that someone chose to make this a gift to me.I don't have the problem with stick someone else mention and I can find a gazillion uses for it. Anything from scrambled eggs to hamburger helper!I jus love it.
+2342,1,for addicts only,"if you don't already own all FZ albums and like his guitar, try anything from ""hot rats"" up to now before wasting your money on this... at least, you'd have some fun included."
+2343,2,Wonderful production!,"Beatrix Potter's tales are timeless classics, and this BBC video production of them doesn't change them at all. Based on her illustrations, these tales come to life on the screen. Each episode begins with live action of 'Beatrix Potter' and her animal friends, penning the story that is about to be told, and leads into an animated story based on her books.The music and sound quality are lovely. As it's an older production, it's not crisp on a large HD tv screen, but still beautiful to watch. Children and adults will love watching Peter Rabbit, Samuel Whiskers, Benjamin Bunny, Jemima Puddle-Duck, Mr. Tod, Tom Kitten, Jeremy Fisher and many more characters come alive!"
+2344,1,Poor performance with temperature,The compass was fine and so was the clock. The temperature (neither inside or outside) was even close. About 20-25 degrees off.
+2345,1,Not what the name implies!,"My daughter was wearing the Huggies prior to this. I ordered this diapers, thinking that they would be softer and more absorbent than the Huggies. To my surprise, they are neither softer or more absorbent. I'm very disappointed and have had to change many skirts, and pants because of this!I am planning on writing to Kimberly Clark as well regarding this. Also, these diapers run small!"
+2346,1,Worst book she has ever written. Made no sense.,Southern Cross was way below the standards of this author. Perhaps she needs a break. This book made no sense what so ever. There didn't seem to be a plot and it was very amaturish. I was very disappointed and would'nt recommend this to anyone.
+2347,2,OFF THE HOOK!!!!,"This is the best Hootie & the Blowfish album ever. HEY SISTER PRETTY rocks!! I remember seeing Hootie & the Blowfish live at Kadena AB in Okinawa,Japan. They are awsome!!!"
+2348,2,How the PCUSA Betrayed it's Presbyterianism,"This is the only book which fully descrbes how a once Calvinist denomination came in the space of a few decades to represent the most liberal Arminianism theolgy ever expressed by a formerly orthodox church and as such, is a warning to every single orthodox church that is in the mainstream. If a church is willing to surrender orthodoxy for numbers, this is the inevitable result. By the way, The PCUSA has been on a steady decline since the 1920's and loses more members every year. The epitath of a once vital church. Resquiat in pace."
+2349,1,That didn't last long....,"Was a decent machine, and was good for the price. Worked well for 3 months, and then death... Will load less than 10% of the Discs you put in the unit. Yes, the very same Discs that were working a few weeks earlier. Blasted with air and tried again, so dust wasn't the issue. Sending back for Warranty service, but of course Shipping is MY cost, and god knows how long that will take."
+2350,1,extremely overrated,"This is a highly over-rated play. When performed by two actors who are less than stellar, the play comes off as yet another slight play about some very usual targets: Drunk Irishmen, stupid and vain Hollywood actors."
+2351,1,Birds of Southern South America,"Despite its rather poor birds drawings and notes, this guide helped me during my trip in Argentina and Chile. However, the maps are not easy to read, as being put at the end of the book.The guide ""birds of Chile of Alvaro Jaramillo"" is , from far, a much better book."
+2352,1,A Poor Typing Tutor Program,"I was very disappointed with this program. Problems:1) You have to put in the cdrom each time you run the program.2) You have to watch the intro credits and exit credits each time you run it - there is no way to bypass them. This adds almost two minutes of useless fluff to every session.3) The graphics and sound are distracting, and are not helpful in any way. There are 3D graphics showing finger placement that I found confusing. I just couldn't tell which finger was doing what. The program pauses every so often to give fairly useless comments.After a few lessons I gave up. I've tried other typing tutor programs in the past, and I'll go back to them."
+2353,1,Its Cheesylicious!,"Cheetahlicious? Don't make me laugh. It's more ""Cheesylicious"". This whole movie is made for 2 year olds! I mean, come on! They sing songs like ""Together we can"", songs like that belong on Barney or Sesame Street! This is unrealistic. Especially the ending when Galleria's dog Toto is stuck in a sewer! And when all the other former-members came, why were they all wearing the same thing but just another color? Come on! Cheesylicious! They voices are more poppy than Britney Spear's voice. It hurts my ears terribly! It is a sad, sad attempt at comedy. DON'T BUY IT!! DON'T WATCH IT ON DISNEY CHANNEL EITHER!! BOO!! IT SUCKS!!!!"
+2354,1,Panasonic VCR head cleaner,"We were disappointed with Panasonic's product. It is inferior to other brands. We've found the best to be the Maxell cleaner, but I'm not sure it is still in production."
+2355,2,An Emotional and Patriotic Look at the Truth,"Personally I am not a big reader of books. However, with a brother in his 3rd tour in Iraq and growing up in a military family and having known Paul as a simple aquaintance in high school, I was excited to check out his book. Not many people from our high school make it into the public eye like Paul has. From the moment I picked up the book I was hooked. It is a powerful and inspiring account of a true and rare American patriot. A patriot who knows what his beliefs are and who is willing to put his life on the line to defend those beliefs. It stirred up a lot of emotions from laughter, tears, and in the end a belief that our soldiers are true heros. I would definately recommend this to anyone and do. Congratulations Paul and look forward to following your inspring career in the years ahead."
+2356,2,"Hey Man, I like dancing to Disco!!","Being a fan of most styles of Dance Music, especially House dj'd by Sanchez/Morillo etc I decided to explore some of its roots and pick this one up. I wasn't expecting much since I never really liked Disco.I was pleasantly suprised.This is one damn fine party album - very danceable.It exposed me to a lot of lesser known disco tracks (theres no blame it on the boogie or freakout here). Yes theres cheese here (it is disco) but theres also some rockin dance tracks here. Its had many repeat plays in my cd player.I wasn't there at the time, but this is Live at the Paradise Garage by Larry Levan, so I guess it has to be somewhat representative of the sound being played then.Overall - If like me you want an intro into the disco sound being played in clubs at the time - then this cd is well worth getting - you won't be disappointed."
+2357,1,"Interesting, yet somewhat disappointing","I was slightly disappointed by the title. I've seen DV8 performing couple of times and their performances were entertaining, innovative and had a really good atmosphere.The DVD consists of 3 pieces, and they're shot for camera, not a performance recording.I think I had higher expectations, remembering the performances from a long time ago."
+2358,1,it wouldn't work!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The second hand WOULD NOT go all the way around the clock.,This is a piece of crap!!. I needed a replacement clock for my office space and this looked like what I wanted to go in the space. It arrived.. I put in BRAND new batteries and it WOULD NOT WORK!!!!! The second hand would go HALF way around the clock and then STOP! i wanted to return for a FULL refund..but there was no information in the package for returning! So I am stuck with the clock that DOES NOT work and I still have no clock in my office space.
+2359,1,THIS ORDER recived a 5 blu rays . 2 will not play.,"I have 2 top rated blu ray dvd players, waiting to watch this yet to be seen movie, it went through previews right to start point and shut off, when I called AMAZON was told I had them over a week, my problem,took to friends home did the same thing, my review is nicely packed and unhappy !"
+2360,1,A disappointment,"Hard to believe this collection in 32 pages is really based on Amish ways. While I am not Amish and don't know a whole lot about their goings on, I find it hard to believe Pineapples (required in at least a couple recipes) grow in Ohio/Pennsylvania (or is their an Amish family living in Hawaii?). Some recipes called for orange and Strawberry jello, commercially prepared mayonaise, and a freezer (to store pickles in). This leads me to think the authors know less than I do about the Amish."
+2361,1,Save your money.,"I admit I don't like Notre Dame. It's a good school with many good students. I still don't like it. That does not mean that I would encourage anyone to buy any of these generally mean-spirited and under-researched books. Sure it's supposed to be a joke, but it is a cheap and nasty laugh. If you really think you or yours are better than any of the things this author hates, then prove it. Don't buy these books."
+2362,2,Assembly issues,"I got my grill very quickly. It looks great after I assembled it. The assembly process however was horrible. The instructions were by no means clear. I am usually very good at figuring out assemblies, but this was a mess! I literally had to assemble it on my own, which wasn't a pleasant experience. If you are handy with tools and good at solving puzzles, go for it!"
+2363,1,"Stay away...far, far away!!!","I don't like to beat a dead horse here, but I believe Mr. Jordan has beaten me to the punch! He lost me completely in book one of the series (Eye of the World). On the suggestion of a friend, I gave the book a sincere try. But after 400 pages of sheer torture, I just had to put it down. Am I ever glad I did! Not only is his concept trite, Mr. Jordan simply has little talent for writing or arousing the interest of earnest Fantasy readers...unless cheap comic books are your thing.I come from the world of J.R.R. Tolkien, Stephen R. Donaldson, Frank Herbert...to name a few. These are authors who created actual worlds in which you could live and breathe, and who wove a rich tapestry of believable characters and events. Mr. Jordan's work can't hold a candle to these masterpieces. This is bubble-gum kiddie-kitsch at its best. Save your hard-earned money and valuable time, folks and...STAY AWAY!!"
+2364,2,"This isn't rock, and this is one of the most beautiful albums i've ever purchased","I purchased this at Tower Records the day i heard it. This is not rock, it's more downtempo/ambient/acid jazz type music. It's honestly one of the most relaxing cd's i've ever listened too. My favorite tracks are, your breathe is mine, moonless, burgandy, and Incandescent."
+2365,1,"Small, leaky tub - great concept - bad product!","I am like most moms who purchased the tub, I thought the sling and shower idea were neat and innovative. I bought one for my baby and one for my sister's baby. Both of the tubs leak water EVERYWHERE, so I had to place it in my large tub just to use it. The tub is too small, when my baby doesn't feel like cramming her legs around the shower motor she her head its the front end of the tub. I never right negative statements but I hope this serves as a warning to anyone who is ""excited"" by the shower feature."
+2366,1,"Oops, She didn't do it again","After one play through it was obvious why this was her worst selling CD. I will admit to liking some of Spears earlier stuff but on this CD she abandons her pop styling to go more hip hop. Sure that may appeal to a new audience but in honesty, if you liked the other stuff, this ain't that. If you were not bothering with her because you liked hip-hop and couldn't bother with her pop, there is no reason why you would have paid attention to it."
+2367,1,No supporting literature or evidence,This has to be one of the worst researched books written in this genre. The author makes claim after claim without backing up anything with literature or some kind of evidence. Even a fan of the speculation/science genre will find this book lacking of any basis for it's theories.
+2368,1,not what I expected...,Its an ok sharpener... have had better... would I buy it again.. no I don't think sooI find the stones too rough an soft and porous....
+2369,2,Its about time!,"What an innovative concept! How often I've found myself fishing for questions to ask the doctor and draw a blank. Now we can rest assured and carry this ""secret weapon"" to the doctor's office. I'm sure there will be lots of nurses that will be able to recommend this to family members and spend less time on the phone answering all of those usual questions. This will certainly be a stocking stuffer this Christmas. Great book!"
+2370,2,Loved it!,"This book is great and very helpful for all ACOAs! I loved it and it really gave me some skills to take home! Janet Woititz is a great author who is very knowledgeable about her subject, and I recommend this book to anyone struggling to deal with being an adult child!"
+2371,2,Great Sound and Great Comfort.,"The headphone has great sound, and it feels comfortable. I feel the sound clarity is very good, but it does lack bass. The sound doesn't compare to quality stereo systems, but for a headphone, it works well. I use the headphone for laptops and MP3 players. I can wear it for a long time, without feeling uncomfortable. Compared to other headphone I've used, this has the best sound quality. I use it all the time for both movies and music. If you prefer sound quality, I would recommend this headphone. If you prefer heavy bass, you might find this headphone inadequate."
+2372,2,Good Book Leads To Good Beer,I have not read this book. Ihave skimmed sections of it and am very impressed. Ihave read a half dozen or more other books and only one other comes close. If you only buy one book on home brewing you can't go wrong with this one. The Owd Hop Head.
+2373,1,"I love Ray Liotta, but...","This was cheesy, formulaic, forshadowing, got weaker as it went on, etc, etc. Ray, you are still the man, but don't do another movie like this. :)"
+2374,2,Album of the year...,"Although some people may refer to this album as a disappointment, I think it's one of the best albums I have heard. It it so much more developed than AFI's previous albums and you can tell just by one listen to the album. The hard work has obviously paid off because there's more texture in the songs and, of course also the trademark AFI lyrics and chants. I don't think I'll ever get sick of this album!"
+2375,2,The importance of HUMINT,"General Franks speaks at length why the U.S. has not been able to capture bin Laden. It is because there is little to no Human Intel. As a former intelligence personell I can say that he has hit the nail on the head. Signal and Satellite reconnaissance can only provide so much. In order to provide actionable intel you've got to also have HUMINT.This book lays out so well how officers should treat, respect and care for their enlisted men that it should be required reading in Officer Candidate School. General Franks deserves all kudos coming to him as a wonderful leader within our military.This book is very non-bias politically. The closest he ever comes to a political side is stating his friendship and love of President G.W. Bush. And, in just one sentence talking about the aloofness of the Clinton White House."
+2376,1,stupid sharpener,"This is not a good sharpenner,I can not totally fix my pencil into it,everytime I want to use it,I need another person to help me hole the sharpener,and then I can use it normally."
+2377,2,The end is at hand.,"Jeremy Robert Johnson is not going to take you to a happy place. In his collection of short fiction, ""Angeldust Apocalypse"" the reader is taken for a ride into a world that's broken and screwed up and yet, you enjoy it anyway. Each story is well written, well placed in the collection. None disappoint. These stories are drug crazed, death crazed and simply crazed. Fans of the bizarre will enjoy this collection very much. This is a good first taste of Mr. Johnson's writing. If this collection is any indicator what's to come will be even better. Physically the book also presents well. Easily readible type, fantastic cover art by Morten Bak. And the ever tempting promise of new works by Mr. Johnson. All in all a good read and worthy buy."
+2378,2,Best Sci Fi show on television,"There is no wonder why so many magazines rate BSG in the top 10 tv shows. Not top 10 scifi shows, but top 10. BSG is dark, smartly written, and topical. It doesn't rely on glitzy special effects, although the effects are well done."
+2379,2,Abnormal Pap smears?? Not anymore!!,"After the pain of going through several colposcopies for low grade abnormal Pap smears, I started taking DIM after seeing a web site that said it could help.After taking it for six months, I'm normal!!No more abnormal, no more colposcopies.If you have low grade abnormal Pap smears and your doctor isn't helping, I highly recommend taking this!No side effects, only benefits!There is help and I've found it!"
+2380,1,I should have listened to those two!,"Egads... I read the other reviews of this book, and thought it couldn't be THAT bad, plus the ETS book for the CS test doesn't offer explainations to the questions, so I gave it a shot. Trust me, they were right. I found errors in it after looking at it for 2 minutes. I'm returning the stupid thing immediately."
+2381,2,Iron Overload Bible,"This book is an awesome reference source for anyone with hemochromatosis or their family. I literally have referred to this book as a bible. Learn what this disease is, why you got it, how to treat it, and live with it."
+2382,1,REBA NEEDED TO WAIT A WHILE LONGER....,If this is what a new CD from Reba sounds like then I can tell you it aint no different than any of her last 4 releases. Its all the same. Only the lyrics are different!! She should have waited a little longer and come back with something that had a little more substance to it. None of the songs on this are even worth mentioning.
+2383,1,Crime Boss is a disgrace to Suave House,"This cd is maaad weak. The beats are wack, the lyrics are wack and C.B. is just swinging on Eightball and MJG'S fame to get his cd out. By this time this is an oldie but it is as bad today as the day it was released. I would sell mine if I could find anyone to take it."
+2384,1,Vac which refuse to Suck !,"I have been using this vacuum cleaner for about a year now and I feel it is not a good one (even though I like the bagless feaure, light in weight and an OK price) here is why:(1) The suction is WEAK, many reviewers think the opposite and I believe they were mislead by the effect of the powerful brush! The brush scrapped materials from the surface of the carpet and gives false impression that lots of dirt is collected.(2) It picks up dog hair and dust ok, but not even a small object on the floor (especially bear floor without carpet).(3) The brush keeps rolling at high speed even when the vacuum is in up-right position. I think this is really a poor design.(4) Very noisy, it is louder than the one I had before (which was truly a powerful one).If you are looking for serious vac, I do not recommend this one."
+2385,2,Fascinating!,After reading an Anne Rice novel I discovered a recommendation of this book. I was glad I decided to read it and found it quite fascinating. It usually takes me a while to finish a book if it doesn't hold my attention and to my surprise I read it in only a few days. The writer just takes you back in history and captures you with the story and you can just picture all the characters in your imagination. I actually did not want the story to end that's how much I was enjoying it. I highly recommend it and I will be reading her other books.
+2386,2,me and my gf can charge our phone,"nice to be able to charge 2 phones at once, quality is not apple material, but hey neither is the price, can't beat it and does the job it's intended to do."
+2387,2,Fashion when style and beauty counted,This is a wondreful look at a time in fashion when looking your best when in public or private did matter. The fashions are an inspiration to those who love classic design. The only statement being made by these fasions are upbeat ones. Thanks for a great book that any sewer will treasure forever!!
+2388,2,Works great,"Great hard drive fast service, everything went smooth , past my expectations , it was used looked and works like new, would buy again"
+2389,2,I love this group!,This is a great group of 7 guys. They love the Lord and know how to show it. I love to listen to their CD's!
+2390,2,SHOCKING BUT INPRESSIVE,"VON TRIER NEVER THHINKS THINGS IN ORDINARY WAYS. I DON'T FEEL TOO SHOCKING ABOUT ANTICHRIST. HOWEVER, IT'S REALLY HARD TO UNDERSTAND THE WHOLE PLOT. WHY DID CRITERION CHOOSE IT RIGHT AWAY?"
+2391,1,Was unable to get universal remote to work with my Sears Garage Door. Settings set properly but no go!!!,Very dissapointed. Could not return item because box was open. How would you know item does not work if you do not open box???!!!!
+2392,1,very diappointing,"I was incredibly disappointed. I loved the movie and all the great music in it, and wanted the soundtrck because I recently became engaged myself. It was mainly the background music, except for two songs. I wanted ""My Girl"" , ""Chapel of Love"" not 30-90 second blips of background music. I would definitely not buy this if you were hoping for all the great oldies loves songs that were in the movie."
+2393,2,DEATH IS PAINLESS BY ARON LOUIS ROSA,"ROSA HAS WRITTEN A SPELLBINDING NOVEL.DEATH IS PAINLESS IS A GREAT STORY OF POLITICAL INTRIGUE, MILITARY MISS DIRECTION AND RAW COURAGE.HOW MANY TIMES HAVE YOU SAID I WISH THE AUTHOR WOULD JUST STICK TO THE STORY INSTEAD OF ADDING FOUR HUNDRED PAGES OF FILLER JUST TO MAKE A THICKER BOOK.ROSA TELLS HIS STORY RELENTLESSLY AND WILL GLUE YOU TO HIS BOOK TILL THE END.CHARLES RABUN"
+2394,1,A baffling contraption,"At least for the rear seat of my Accord coupe, this seat cover was completely inadequate. It comes in two pieces, each of which looks a lot like an elasticized bucket seat cover, and neither of which stayed in place on the seat. Furthermore, there is no accommodation for rear head rests. I have a hard time imagining how this cover could work on any rear car seat."
+2395,2,This is a book you loan out and never see again.,This is a book for all women and all men who are willing to expand their viewpoints of the world around them. These loosely linked stories follow a path towards realization reuniting men and women in one world of understanding. Well written and thought provoking.
+2396,1,Recommended cleaning resulted in broken product,"I'm very disappointed by how easy it was to break the lid when trying to disassemble it GENTLY to follow the cleaning instructions provided with the product. Its spinning ability seems to deteriorate with weekly use after the first month. Cheap! I will NEVER use this model, or any OXO salad spinner again."
+2397,1,YUCK!!!!,I BOUGHT THIS ITEM THINKING I WAS GOING TO GET A DELICIOUS SMELLING LOTION THAT SPREAD ON YOUR SKIN LIKE WHIP CREAM INSTEAD I RECIEVED AN STINKING SMELLING IMATATION FRUIT IT SMELLS HORRIBLE YOU WILL BE SOOOOO DISSAPOINTED IF YOU GET THIS I WAS VERY UNHAPPY
+2398,1,Disappointing,"I was rather excited about reading this book as a simple, easy way to learn more about one of history's most intriguing figures. In the end, I was rather disappointed. The book was not particularly well-written and did not flow well. Worse yet, the author failed to portray Elizabeth as a strong leader and more like a weak, frail queen subject to her lusts and relying almost entirely on her advisors for ruling. The plot did not really explain while Elizabeth never married, despite several love affairs and extreme pressure to do so to protect the throne."
+2399,1,a travesty,"When you deviate significantly from a pretty good cold war novel with a good serial character in a good series and then miscast the hero this badly, nothing can make up for it. Segal is not credible except in his usual fluffy comedy roles; e.g, ""Who is Killing the Great Chefs of Europe"" which I highly recommend, especially if you like to cook, but he's not a cold warrior. Here's a Segal quote from that Chefs movie: ""I can't even boil a pizza."""
+2400,1,The Wedding,I was disappointed. This is the first time I've ever read anything by this author that did nothing for me. I would not recommend this book to a friend.
+2401,2,Wow!!! What a GREAT exercise tool!!!!,"This is a GREAT exercise tool if you want to exercise your forearms, wrists, hands, and fingers. There are NO batteries, you can exercise while doing other things, and you are in complete control so you can exercise as intensely or as gently as you want. By switching back and forth, right side for a while, left side for a while, right, left, etc., you can exercise for as long as you want. What a great idea."
+2402,1,BIG disappointment,"Like many other purchasers, I am a teacher. I bought this for my classroom. It died after 3 months. My husband dissected it and discovered a piece is missing - and one of the gears is PLASTIC, so it was guaranteed to fail. I'm just ticked that I get $2/per child for art supplies for the whole year and this took up the allocation for 16 students."
+2403,2,Visually stunning Sci-Fi epic is marred by plot holes.,"Fifth Element is beautiful, from the opening scene set in ancient Egypt to the stratospheric metropolis to the Diva's concert on Floston Paradise. The characters sparkle and the pacing is impeccable. Fifth Element's only flaw is the one that so much movie SF shares: wildly implausible science fiction.From the frontier in space that you can see, to the trip to Floston that takes three hours, but there's only one ship in the world that goes there, and they put you into hibernation for the trip, to the General that greets alien dignitaries with threats and guns, Fifth Element has all the hoary cliches.I don't mean to say that the movie isn't fun (it is), or that other SF movies don't sin the same way (they mostly do), I just wish someone would make an SF movie that wasn't an SF embarrasment.Trivia: my wife and I watch credits for fun, and we just love Eve Savail's: ""Tawdry Girl"". END"
+2404,1,Disappointing and Vague Overview on Outsourcing and Offshoring,"I found this book pretty disappointing on the subject of outsourcing and ""how to do it right.""Corbett is limited in sharing insights and instructional how-to's. As an early book on outsourcing, its dated and vague. I recommend you look at the other books on outsourcing which are more forthcoming and self-empowering."
+2405,1,Barely useful for woodworking,Bought it with high hopes based on good reviews. It was easy to setup. It shakes a lot when I used it for cross cutting 1 X 12 pine. As a result I could not cut in a straight line. I needed to bevel one of the edges at 45 degrees using a chisel and the shaking was even worse. The dogs are pathetic pieces of plastic. Overall not very useful if you plan to use it for woodworking with hand-tools. good luck.. caveat emptor!
+2406,2,the voice of the night,"i love dean koontz. i will read almost anything he has written. good plot, realistic people represented. will rad it again, i am sure."
+2407,1,sucked,"It wasn't very good. the ""humor"" they where trying to do failed horribly. Do not waste your time or money."
+2408,2,good history of herbalism,the historical aspect of this book is excellent and makes a good read. The last chapters about the current herbalism trends are a bit weak though.
+2409,2,mixed blessing,I will really like this hand held but the transition from a Sony Clie has been nerve wracking. The sony also is palm powered but there are difference between the palm os5 on the Clie and the palm garnet as used on the palm tx. The worst is the operating system on the palm tx cannot keep e-books from being saved as documents in documents to go if documents and the mobireader are both on the hand held. I bought a SD card and moved the book readers to it. also some of the games don't work properly especially the solitare games. I also bought the keyboard for it since I don't have the patience to enter much data by hand.This was the handheld that I chose over another palm handheld when my sony died. It has been an adjustment but again I will really like it once I have made the adjustments to this TX.
+2410,1,Clutter,There was so much stuff in this house. Although I admired the energy it took the decorator to do all of the faux finishes in her home there is so much clutter. Everything is over done. Just not my taste at all.
+2411,2,not bad,"To those who think Billy Ray Cyrus was a one-hit wonder, I recommend that you give this album a listen. It contains several of his big hits (""Some Gave All,"" ""Could've Been Me,"" ""Busy Man,"" and of course ""Achy Breaky Heart"") and showcases his talents well. You might be surprised. This is one of my favorite albums. If you like Billy Ray, this is quite possibly the perfect album for you. Truly amazing."
+2412,2,The doors most underrated album,"I just can't understand people who say this is the weakest doors album. The quality of the songs is superb, every time i listen to it i find a new favourite. The title track shows the doors at there most experimental. One of the best albums the doors ever released."
+2413,1,90 DAY WARRANTY!!!???,"A 90 DAY WARRANTY IS RIDICULOUS. UNHEARD OF FOR THE PRICE. MINE WENT OUT IN 9 MONTHS. DON'T BUY IT!IT LOOKS GOOD, BUT IT IS CHEAP INTERNALLY!!!"
+2414,2,Excellent book a must read!!!,"I for one am not a reader but, as I was looking over the site the other day this book caught my attention. I read this book in about 3 hours. I loved it. It pulled at your heart strings and your love for the characters grows as you read the book. I would definitely read this book again and I have recommended this book to everyone that will listen. Excellent book!!!!!!"
+2415,2,Started off slow but it won't disappoint you.,"Like I said, at the beginning I hung in there. A really good book will have me page turning till the late hours of the night that wasn't the case at first. As I approached midway through the book I was up late reading and I began taking the book to work to sneak it a few chapters. The author did a great job of researching the matter you can tell from the vivid writing and dialogue. Great read."
+2416,1,Anachronistic Misfire,"Laden with too many agendas, this film misrepresents the understated feminism of Austen (which was actually bold for her time). To the film's credit, Nivola is the quintessential Henry Crawford, a man who takes a huge gamble on love, only to gain with his vanity that prize which his true heart despises. O'Connor is a luminous find, yet poorly directed here, and often sprouting dialogue completely foreign ...as depicted by Austen in the novel."
+2417,2,A pleasant mishmash,Aside from the Yiddish - English dictionary the book has many features explaining various aspects of Yiddish culture. It provides real insight into the cultural world and life of Yiddish speakers. An excellent browsing book.
+2418,1,product never worked,"I ordered the garmin nuvi 360 as a christmas gift for a friend from digitech deals. The first time I received the box, the recharger and some items were outside the polybags. It looked used. I explained my situation and I was sent another one. This time everything seemed like it was new except when it was charged and ready to go, it never worked. For two days it never acquired the satellite connection. It kept on asking if I was outdoors and if it was March 2007. The date and the time were both off. I ordered this device because I read only great reviews on this product. I can't even review this item b/c it never worked. I ended up returning the whole thing and getting a full refund. I was not satisfied with the online purchase."
+2419,2,It looks much nicer in person,I'm happy with my purchase. My husband likes it alot. It looks much nicer than the picture I have to say.
+2420,1,What a disappointment,"With stars like Meryl Streep, Tommy Lee Jones and Steve Carrell I thought this was a sure entertainment pleaser. How wrong I was. It was not funny. It was not engaging. I couldn't wait for it to end. It is in my trash can right now."
+2421,1,Frustrating Game,"This game is frustrating, it seems to be a very elaborate game. But compared to the other games like Fighter Ace, the plane model is way too difficult. I fly real planes and I have trouble taking off from this game without damaging the planes. Also from the time I was flying there does not seem to be a lot of people flying.Also, there is only cockpit view, which is realistic. But Fighter Ace at least give you the options of flying in Arcade mode just to have fun or realistic mode to emulate real life.Being a Fighter Ace user wanting to check the other game out, I am disappointed and don't understand what the concept is. It is too bad since they seem to have put a lot of effort in the game and in marketing."
+2422,1,No Proofreading - Poor Quality Writing,"There are so many mistakes that the examples are endless...but for one, pp 222-223 are terrible. Two sentences are repeated multiple times in different paragraphs. Also on p. 46, the Locical Operators table, the ""greater than"" symbol is listed as a DOT rather than a "">"". These are just two of many errors that should have been caught by basic editing/proofreading.It may answer your questions, but be careful..."
+2423,1,Worst book on Disney I've read,"Of the 5 or 6 books I've read on the behind the scenes workings of Disney theme parks, this is the absolute worst.I have no problem with critiques of Disney but this book seem to start off with the assumption that Disney is evil and sought to support it with any facts or opinions (usually unsupported opinions).Steer clear of this one."
+2424,1,DO NOT BUY!! SO HARD TO FIND WORKING BOOKS.,"I loved the idea of this toy as well-but it truly does not work with most of the books out there. It works with the two books it came with-I even went so far as to return my Story Reader and get a new one thinking it was defective. It was not-the magnets on the book do not work. I have bought two separate three packs brand new from two stores-neither have any books that work. They short out because the Story Reader can not read the magnet. Occasionally I can get them to read a sentence but they are all unusable. I have so many friends that have the same problem. I am stuck with useless books that do not work and a Story Reader that I can use only the two original books with. It is a good idea in theory, but it really does not work. Please DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY!"
+2425,1,Did nothing to help me,"Not only did these make my shoes terribly uncomfortable, but they did nothing to help my problem (plantar fasciitis). At least I was only out $25, but it was a complete waste of that $25 to have them gathering dust in a drawer."
+2426,2,Another Great Stephanie Mission,"I have been waiting for this book to come out for over a year, and I was not disappointed. Stephanie is back with all the regular characters, and I do mean characters!This book is full of the regular Stephanie mishaps plus a few new ones. She does manage to keep the same vehicle through the whole thing but goes through quite a few of Ranger's ""Merry Men"" bodyguards, each one suffering a fate more hilarious than the last one.I recommend this book to any one who is in need of a good laugh and a serious Ranger and Morelli fix!"
+2427,1,O-o-okay,"Did I read a different book from everyone else? I thought this was horrible! I mean how demeaning to women to imply and then prove that a man would best a woman in strength every time. Even a woman with fighting skills. Then, this whiny main character that, regardless of all the obvious hands on facts that prove Sabin is an honest, honorable man, she still calls foul and continues to abuse him in the worst way. Yet, he continues to chase her, help her and love her regardless. When everything is added up, Moriah doesn't deserve a man like Sabin. Lastly, to top it all off, after she's unloaded abuse after abuse on him, he simply tells her he's a good guy and she's like, oh, well, in that case I believe you and I love you. How utterly stupid! His actions obviously mean nothing, but she'll listen to what he says--wham--bam!Terrible, just terrible!"
+2428,2,Supernatural,I was so happy when I got my order. The package was fully intact. There was no damage at all! Very pleased!
+2429,2,Phantom of the Opera 2 disk dvd,Stupendous! The music is fantastic. Each time I see it I fall in love all over again.
+2430,1,Exaclty Who IS This????,"These songs are all very cute and romantic, but where is my RAUNCH? C'mon now, y'all know that even the sweetest, purest, truest love has to have SOME stank in it to work. The voices are still there, but most of this material would be better off with the Backstreet Boyz or O-Town or even The Carpenters. These are real men with real voices-find material that allows them to show that in ALL of it's forms. Please, at least put SOME of that good ole stank a dank dank back in it! I guess they call this maturing, but I call it getting stale-REAL FAST! And that last one ""How Long"" sounds borderline country-WHAT?? Where is DEVANTE SWING????"
+2431,2,"Cute product, but just wish it was a little bigger","We got this for our 2 year old son for Christmas to hold all of the trains that ended up spread all over the house. Its a cute idea, but as some of the others had said, the compartments don't hold the larger cars well. I will probably end up using this for smaller engines, and then getting a plastic storage tub with a lid for the rest of the trains. Overall a cute idea that kids enjoy, but not an organizers dream solution to store all those trains."
+2432,1,Baby doesn't really like this,"Our six month old baby doesn't really like this toy. I was hoping he would, but it doesn't hold his interest very much. It seems well made and I have no complaints with the toy itself, only that my baby prefers other toys over this one."
+2433,1,Better than nothing?,"As the old saying goes ""Jack of all trades - Master of none"". This manual tries to cover five different GM models and as a result does none of them well. While attempting to diagnose a fuel feed problem in my 1994 Grand Am I found several errors in the documentation. The manual will cover one type of system in a particular year group and gives you the infamous... other models similar. So, while it's better than stumbling around in the dark I can't recommend spending $22 for it."
+2434,1,Not as strong as I needed.,"I have an older Campbell that seems to work much better. This one eliminates a lot of air and my 20 Gal compressor has a hard time keeping up with extended use. The power rating may be off, because I find that I still have a long way to go to tighten lugs to spec even using this at full pressure."
+2435,1,Don't buy this saw yet - it's a prototype with no quality control.,"I bought this saw a week ago and it is still not running correctly. The front Biesmeyer fence bracket had one hole drilled incorrectly and had to be replaced. The back bracket interferes with the blade gaurd. The whole thing vibrates enough to put waves on the surface of a glass of water placed on the table. Delta says the belt just needs to be worn in. I think it's a faulty motor, but I have to humor them by running it for hours to convince them. There is no mobile base available for this saw yet.If you want to troubleshoot and tinker with a saw that is still really just a prototype, you'll love this saw. If you want to actually use a saw though, forget it. I've lost a week of work screwing around with this dog. They make you assemble and adjust things they could have done just as easily at the factory. I don't want to work for Delta assembling saws. I want to USE the saw. I will never buy Delta again."
+2436,1,reason for disappointment,"The book was fine but the cover was torn, badly. As it was a gift I was disappointed but had no time to return it"
+2437,2,retro style chairs,The chairs are great but there should be holes to screw the seat on. It was hard to do until I got the drill out to make holes.
+2438,2,I fell in love with this book...,"It is the first Vonnegut book I had the pleasure of reading and within a month I have read 4 more. It a fantastic book that manages to mix sci-fi with philosophy and religion. It's a captivating story, and I think one of the best Vonnegut books out there."
+2439,1,I am sorry I read it!,"Well written, but EXCEEDINGLY UNPLEASENT! I was surely not expecting it to end like that! I am sorry that I read this book. It has extremely disturbing images related in a casual, flippant manner. Indeed, Westlake seems to be more or less advocating MURDER as a means of advancing one's career, maintaining one's lifestyle. Or, as he puts it, ""the end justifies the means""."
+2440,2,In order to be the man you have to get this DVD!,"This is it. The almost ultimate collection of 'Slick Rick'. It stops around 92 before his matches with Savage and Hogan. But still in one of the best damn collections of wrestling I have seen in a LOOONG time. I am glad to see that the WWE is making use of the library of videos they bought when the accquired WCW. I really hope to see more like this. If I were running things over at Titan Towers I would release a Vol II of Flair stuff followed up by a classics series featuring some of the past greats like SuperFly, Steamboat and some of the other greats from the 70's and 80's."
+2441,2,"Passion, pathos, and murder","Ann Rule has made a name for herself, writing stories and novels about true crime. ""Empty Promises"" is one of her many collections of short stories about murderers and their motives - and in this case, the oft times empty promises used to lure a victim into a crime.With her experience as both an author AND a policewoman in Washington state, Ann Rule is more than knowledgeable about the subjects of her writing, and her expertise shows yet again.Unfortunately, given the limitations of the book's format, I found myself wanting to know more about some of the stories... their conclusions seemed very rushed, with little setup to prepare you for the answers given.All in all, an enjoyable read and highly recommended for nonfiction and mystery buffs alike."
+2442,1,Too good to be true,"I was really excited to see the price on this card, however, once I tried putting in my phone, I was unable to format it because my phone did not recgnize the card. So, whenever I added files to it, they wouldn't be there the next time I turned on the phone or took the card out. I had to go to my service provider and get a card from them. Be careful, if something is too good to be true, then it probably isn't"
+2443,1,This book had very little new information,"I purchased this book (my 5th book on a sleep subject) because I was desperate to help one of my twins who fights going to bed (her brother is a great sleeper and we've treated them exactly the same). I imagine if you are just starting sleep training the book would have some helpful hints, but we had tried 5 different approaches over 5 months (all the big names) and nothing had worked. I was so disappointed that this book had no new information in it. By the title and editorial alone I thought this would be the book for us. It did not give me one new tip that I hadn't already tried and is yet another book that will go on the shelf. If you are looking for something to help you get your child to bed without crying and you've tried other approaches this is NOT the book for you. Side note - she suddenly became a better sleeper after we returned from a short vacation and gave up being so concerned about her sleep patterns. Go figure!"
+2444,2,Lon Awaited Return,I waited and waited for the local music store to get this CD in. I have been following Micro since 1996. This CD brings back some amazing memories of his other Tech Mix series. Micro simply puts on a great show on this CD. If you were the least bit disappointed by his last 3 releases get this CD it will not let you down. I put this right up there with DJ Micro DJMIXEd and right up there with all the other Tech Mix Cd's. It will be one of the few CD's that doesn't get removed off my Ipod because I can not get enough of listening to it.
+2445,2,She Does It Again,"Courtney Love has given us a punk infused pop record with amazing lyrics, catchy riffs and all around greatness."
+2446,1,Great while it works!,"I purchased the Rowenta DX8800 iron about two years ago. It worked great then a month ago it started ""shorting"" out. Knowing it was past it's warranty period I sent it to the recommended service center in NY. BIG MISTAKE!!!They gave me Four Options:Option #1:Repair for $87.99Option #2: Purchase a new unit for $99.98 total price charged after 10% discount and shipping charges.(I think a new one is listed on Amazon for $89.99)Option #3: Pay $12.99 to have it shipped back (it cost me $10.15 to have it shipped to them)Option #4: Have the unit discardedWhat a RIP OFF! I certainly assumed an iron costing almost $100 would last more than 2 years!I wonder if Rowenta knows what kind of service centers they are recommending? I will NEVER buy another Rowenta!!!"
+2447,1,Very serious,"We were looking for something a little more fun than this video. This is a very serious ballet lesson. If that's what you are looking for, you will love it. We were looking for something a little less formal and more fun."
+2448,1,Don't purchase this item,I am so disappointed in this product. I would not recommend it to anyone....I got it for my two year old and it didn't even work out of the box....it is almost like the gears are jammed it sounds like it is going a million miles an hour and the thing is barely moving.....He got another car similar different brand and it drives circles around this piece of junk!
+2449,2,Great Fun!,"Look, I don't care what all these ""whovians"" (?) say; this old Brit S-F chestnut is priceless fun. From the opening scene-- where the good doctor is seen gasping over a DAN DARE comic-- this movie will hook any fan of Sci-fi goofiness. The story is actually pretty good-- in a cliffhanger serial sort of way-- it just requires a sense of humor. Peter Cushing? Well... how MANY good things can I say?Recommended!"

+2451,1,Evola the fascist,"The fact remains that Evola was a fascist, and that books like this propogate an individualistic egoistic and anti-democratic view of the world. Evola was rather like a lost child on his first day at school, unable to focus on anything but his own sense of alienation to his surroundings. He may have been a genius, but so were Himmler and other such upstanding characters. Those who ignore this side of Evola's character have been seduced by his skill with words. Shoutking would not like the right to write his pompous reviews taken away from him, but if people had listened too carefully to Evola this could have happened."
+2452,1,Could have been better - especially given the price,"I was in Stuttgart when I found a German nail clipper for sale in a gift shop. It was a shocking $29 but since I was on vacation and in a pretty good mood, I examined it and tested it in the shop. It did such a good job that I bought one. It remains to this day in my night stand, unshared with my family. Feeling a little guilty, when I saw the Seki clipper at a tempting price, I pounced. Alas, the quality is about as good as a $3 clipper I recently bought and no where near as good a give-away clipper I keep in the bathroom. There must be a better clipper out there and I'll keep looking. This isn't the dream clipper I hoped for.nail clipper"
+2453,2,A Lifetime Ode To Mother Love And Sacrifice: No Daughter Left Behind,"From 2006, ""Augusta, Gone"" has an edginess in style that you might not be used to from other endeavors on the Lifetime network. Capturing the wildness of the feature film ""Thirteen"" (among dozens of others), the story is about a young girl who is descending into a life of drugs and debauchery. Mika Boorem does a good job channeling the severe angst in Augusta as she perpetually seems determined to derail her life. But the movie, as you might expect from Lifetime, is about unconditional love and redemption as well. A terrific Sharon Lawrence plays a mother who will do anything to bring her daughter to safety. ""Augusta, Gone"" may be intended as a fact based cautionary tale but I'll remember it for the distinctive lead performances. Strong and emotional stuff. KGHarris, 7/12."
+2454,2,Great stuff but the cap keeps falling off,It is great tool but the cap keeps falling off. It has nevertheless given great images for the last year.
+2455,1,Unbelievable plot and unlikable characters!,"Why read a book with characters you don't like and a plot that is so absurd that you feel silly actually reading it? When I start a book, I like to finish it, but this one could be put down at any time and you haven't missed a thing. Definitely NOT worth the hype that preceded it. In fact, it is one of the worst books I have read in a long while. Shame on you, Robert Stone!"

+2457,2,electro perfection for fans of the whole retro 80s movement,"I was so excited to stumble upon this single by The Protocol, which is easily going to be compared to The Killers and The Bravery. The Bimbo Jones mix is a stompin electro house mix, and both the a-side and b-side capture that retro 80s danceable alternative rock feel. I've already ordered their other single ""She Waits for Me"", and just wish the remixes for that song would be released on a single--as far as I know, they are only on a vinyl 12"". I also can't wait for the full length CD."
+2458,2,"Lover, virgin, mother","THE SALT ROADS is an engrossing tale of three women who step off of the pages and sit with you as you revel in their triumphs and tremble at their tribulations. In reading this novel, I found that Hopkinson is a writer that uses stiff doses of human emotion and reality to balance out her themes of mythology, fantasy, and religion. THE SALT ROADS is an eccentric read; I truly can say I have never read anything like it. Strongly recommended to those readers who desire a taste of the unknown or an edifying and enlightening experience, THE SALT ROADS is one of the new classics of our generation.Reviewed by CandaceKof The RAWSISTAZ ReviewersComplete review can be found on our website..."
+2459,2,"Looking for ""Waking Up Alone (Newly Recorded Version)""?","I bought this CD after looking very hard for the ""newly recorded"" version of ""Waking Up Alone."" Most of the time, you find the original piano-based version of this great song. I was looking for the 'updated' single release from the ""Classics"" LP (1977?). IT'S HERE. The liner notes don't tell you that it is the updated version, BUT IT IS!!!"
+2460,2,Movie Buff loves these entertaining filmic stories,"What a surprise to find the ""Mrs. Dalloway"" Legend of Virginia Woolf spinning out of Michael Cunningham's novel ""The Hours"" into not only the film versions of Vanessa Redgrave's ""Mrs. Dalloway"" and Nicole Kidman's ""The Hours"" but also into Jack Fritscher's extraordinary fusion of a short story, ""Mrs. Dalloway Went That-A-Way."" For movie fans and literary sleuths like me, the tricks all these writers use is a joy. ""Mrs. Dalloway Went That-A-Way"" is a great story in this collection of really entertaining short fiction.(This must be the first short story about ""Civil Union"" in Vermont.) The stories are called ""coffee house stories,"" and the subtitle is a point well made. Well done."
+2461,2,Bakertowne Cheese Slicer,For the money you can't beat this cheese slicer. You do have to be careful not to push down to hard with the firmer cheese or it will snap.
+2462,1,Do NOT buy this product!!!,"I used this product approximately 5 times and the ""clutch"" broke...translated the rotary blade in the jar wouldn't spin. I called Cuisinart for a parts replacement, but I had to pay for shipping both ways...they wouldn't send me the part. I decided to reinvest in another blender and chucked this one."
+2463,2,This Is An Important Book,"I have long been fascinated with the way in which gay men ""buy into"" straight thinking; to wit, that anything less than ""masculine"" is not to be desired. I mean, how many personal ads do you see where the guy is looking for a ""fem"" guy? Bergling has taken the whole discussion of preconceived gender roles and given it a personal face with the reporting of what real people think. I found the book very helpful in that regard and can only hope it stirs the thinking of those who think that anything ""fem"" is to be avoided at best and derided at worst. Read this book!The only reason I didn't give it five stars is because I wanted more; it ended too soon."
+2464,2,WOW,i recently brought this cd and i was amazed how good this bluegrass tribute to Linkin Park they did a good job but.....they forgot to make a bluegrass ver of PaperCut.
+2465,1,Over emotional,I've always feel sad when overseas Chinese being overly critical on China after the influence of the Western(esp. US) propaganda.The author seemed too biased and I found difficulties in finishing the book.
+2466,2,WCW ROCKS,"WCW SLAMBOREE 2000 was last ppv for Slamboree. you have Hulk hogan vs Billy kidman with eric bischoff as the special refeee. You have Ric Flair vs Shane Dougalous. Sting vs Vampiro, The Artist vs Chris Candido for the cruiserweight title, Shawn Stasiak vs Curt Henning-note this is curt henning's last ppv appearence for WCW. The only other match I can remember is the main event Triple-cage 3-way dance. Diamond Dallas Page vs Jeff Jerrett vs David Arquette, thats right the actor. Going for the world heavyweight belt. Mike awsome and kanyon interfere in this match"
+2467,2,refreshing perspective into world of comic design,"The power of comics is the expressions packets it can deliver in few picture. I started reading about visual communication by reading books from Dan RoamBlah Blah Blah: What To Do When Words Don't Work. And later I wanted to move to finer art of bringing more expressions into my drawing. And this book on understanding comics gives a such a cool rollerskating ride into the science ( its art, but the author does the heavy lifting of making it easily understood ) of drawing and cartoons that I couldn't let it go. Awesome read. Thank you for the effort Scott. Highly recommended for beginners of comics artists as well as any one who wants to communicate with team visually."
+2468,1,The Trailer Trash Biography on Ethel Merman,"Obviously, this man has nothing on his mind but sex and secrets, because that is all this horrific book is about. With the exception of several interesting tidbits about ""Gypsy"" (Her dislike for Sandra Church, etc.) all this book covers is secrets about Ethel Merman and her sex life. We needn't hear about how one of her breif marriages was ruined because her husband couldn't get an erection. We needn't hear how Merman desperately tried to have an affair with ""Gypsy"" composer Jule Styne. What we want to hear is stories about her shows- the staging, the backstage turmoil and triumph.There is an interesting listing of televison shows, films and stage shows featuring Merman, however, besides that, this is utter trailer trash."
+2469,2,Purchased as a gift.,I also have this movie if was very difficult to find locally. Entertaining seeing these old action stars in a movie together.
+2470,1,Didn't work,"I have NO idea how to use this thing. I wanted to make chocolate bottles, but it didn't go together well whatsoever. Folding it didn't work, so I cut it and that didn't work either. Oh well!"
+2471,1,Great,"Very good,this kept me wanting more. Could not wait to see what happens next. Very excited to read the next one in the series."
+2472,1,Widescreen and 5.1 Please,The fantastic score deserves better--as does the cinematography. Movie: 5 Stars; DVD: 0 Stars.

+2474,1,Did not work on FreeBSD 7.2,I had hopes for this card: the reviews seem fine. But the FreeBSD 7.2 drivers loop and time out.
+2475,1,Bad...,"True Sarah fans who love her music so deeply would be very disapointed. It has some nice songs, such as Fallen, Stupid and Time but the rest are just a long trail of blahhhhhhhhhhh in one tune. This is not to Sarah's standards, which is very high. This cd is nothing compared to her previous ones... she is also too 'happy' in this cd. Nothing truely special and has not created any creative songs here. Sarah is a truely amazing artist and this cd is disapointing!"
+2476,2,Interesting character interactions: intriguing and confusing,"I throughly enjoyed this work of Emily Bronte's (which I believe to be her only novel). I liked Wuthering Heights much more than her sister's, Char.'s, Jane Eyre. The love and hatred which paint this plot make the reader love and hate every character at different points in the book. The only thing that I did not like is that I felt that having finsihed the book, I was never quite able to find a character whose motives I thought I truly understood--but perhaps this ambiguity is what adds an element of psychological intrigue to the plot."
+2477,1,A few chuckles at first...then utter boredom,"This terrible movie starts out with a halfway decent premise and its trailer offers a few chuckles but that's where the fun ends. The acting is stiff and unnatural, the main character is utterly unlikeable, and the dialogue seems as if the actors are reading the script for the first time. The F word and raunchy humor are overused to the point where it all becomes repetitive, tedious, and boring. This is a hastily thrown together flop that repeatedly insults the audience with its utter lack of talent, and its poor quality script, acting, editing, characters, and story. A perfect example of why the entertainment industry is failing."
+2478,2,A must-have for a true fan of Britney Spears!,"This was a very good book. It had good information and pictures (although I wish they were color).It had some quizzes, things pertaining to her future, where to look for her as far as tv apperances and magazines. It is a must-have for a true Britney fan! :)"
+2479,1,Sheets too loose for bassinett!,"These sheets are much too loose to be used in the bassinett. They are very expensive, and the quality is just not there. I'm surprised that this product is not being looked at as a safety hazard, as loose crib sheets are not safe for an infant. I would not have bought these sheets had I known they were going to fit so loosely."
+2480,1,Pathetic,"I returned this DVD. Reason? Same as so many others. The commercials. Yes, you can fast forward through them, but what nerve from Universal! The only way they're going to stop doing this kind of thing is if we all become criminals and download movies illegally, OR deprive Universal of their money by not buying their products. I saw Animal House, I liked Animal House...but not enough to surrender my hard-earned cash for a DVD full of advertising and a snapcase full of coupons. That's a bum deal. Maybe if it cost $3.98 it might be a different story."
+2481,2,Fun with labels,"Four and a half stars, really. The Dymo LetraTag is fun and easy to use! It does a few different fonts, vertical strips, two-line labels, and symbols. You'll actually want to go through and organize your filing cabinet. The only thing I don't like is the cheapo paper label tape -- OK for sticking to paper items (like file folders) but it doesn't work well on plastic (like VHS cassettes.) Splurge and get the more expensive plastic tape if you want a little more versatility."
+2482,1,DO NOT PURCHASE FOR A '97 COROLLA DX,It just won't work. The instructions were confusing and unhelpful. I was unable to complete the install and ended purchasing this: Metra 99-8101 Dash Kit For Toyota Multikitturbo 84-04
+2483,1,Iomega Zip 750MB Drive,"The days of ""750MB"" has gone. Only reason I bought this was to retrieve my archival datas stored in the 750MB cartridges. After that it is useless. It's the time for the memory size of ""GBs"" and ""TBs."""
+2484,2,Works great!,"This item is as advertised. Simple to use and clean. Durable plastic air pump. Rubber/plastic bottle stoppers can be taken apart and cleaned.When all the air is removed from the wine bottle, it makes a high-pitched ""ping"" sound so you know that the air is removed."
+2485,1,zero stars if i could,i bought this dress in a size meduim. it was sent to me at a size 38. it was way to big and i needed it for an important event. not only that i sent it back and still have yet to receive a refund. i am very disappointed in this product. it was an awful experience and i will never shop with a foreign company again. (everything was sent in chinese which mad it even more difficult to send back) two thumbs way down!
+2486,2,Beautiful Watch!,"I find it difficult to purchase online, since pictures never do items justice and you can't get a real ""feel"" for what you are looking at. After days of comparing different watches, reviews, and pictures, I decided on this watch as a Christmas gift for my boyfriend.He loves it! It looks great on his wrist, and he has received several unsolicited compliments about his watch. I wasn't there when he set the time, but apparently is was straightforward enough to do quickly and without reading directions (he usually skips that step). I am very happy with my purchase."
+2487,2,Great value for the money - padding is great!,"A friend of mine purchased a higher-end Total Gym through the infomercial web-site about 10 years ago and has encouraged me to get one for years. Not knowing whether or not I would really stick with a program, I didn't want to spend a lot of money. (I paid $169.99 with free Super Saver Shipping.)When I found this particular option, my biggest concern was that the padding on the glide board might not be thick enough to be comfortable. To my great surprise, the padding is more than adequate for my sensitive body (I feel like the ""Princess and the pea""). Not only that, it is much better padding than what is on the one my friend purchased (and paid much more money for 10 years ago.) I wish it was configured for the squat board (so I could borrow my friend's attachment) but, I still can't complain considering the low price I paid for this!"
+2488,1,Unpleasant frenzy,"Andrew Manze is an amazing violinist. But he's too amazing for his own good. He doesn't know when to hold back. His frantic sawing of these sonatas is really unpleasant. Where it should be lyrical, he is frenetic. If he could just calm down he is capable of playing beautifully. But not here. A major disappointment."
+2489,2,Dogs with sensitive stomachs,"I have two boxers. They both love the Grizzly Salmon oil. I have a 6 year old and a 1 year old boxer. My one year old has a very sensitive stomach to food and treats. She also was starting to get spots on her head where she would loose hair. After a month of using the Grizzly oil everyday. The hair has grown back on her head and she has not thrown up. I recommend this product for healthier skin, fur and dogs with sensitive stomachs."
+2490,1,Trash game,This game makes you want to throw up by the bad graphics and because of what the people look like and they don't even help you on this game.I suggest you throw this game away and you would rather be in prison than play this game.
+2491,1,Flaky,"Overall I like Netgear...but I think this card may have been rushed to market. It worked fine at first, but overtime developed issues to the point where, the card will not establish a connection with the Gigabit Switch. I have some 100 MB switch ports still available, and the card works ok in them, but when I connect it to the Gigabit Switch, it will not establish a connection. We have upgraded drivers, reseated the cards, tried different ports, even rebuilt the computer and it still will not maintain a connection unless we have it connected to the 100 MB switch...which kind of defeats the purpose. Hopefully Netgear's newer Gigabit cards are more stable."
+2492,2,Worth the entrance price for Buddha of Compassion...,I find this disc just a wee bit patchy compared to previous outings. However the 10 minute opus - Buddha of Compassion - ranks in my top 10 best ever tracks. It really is a sublime piece of music and almost has a transformative effect on me. Its one of those tracks that you never want to end.
+2493,2,I love them!,"These are excellent, just make sure you don't cinch them to tight. They are great for just doing activites around the house or if you are going on a long walk. Although they are very bulky and visible."
+2494,1,Frustration doesn't cover it!,Since I first wrote this review I discovered that the fault was not with the scanner but with my computer. After formatting my computer I was able to install the scanner and software without any problems. I am still learning to use it but so far I have decided not to return it. It works well and I like it very much. I apologize if my review has negatively effected anyone's choice.
+2495,2,True simmers will especially appreciate this addition!,"FINALLY! All of us simmers have been waiting for the chance to play with a family AWAY from the home! The houses are great, but sometimes a Sim needs a change of scenery :) That's where the downtown comes in. You can change the stores, decide what should be sold, and basically do whatever you want! My only wish would be that it would give more empty lots for development. Other than that, it's great!"
+2496,2,Nice,"The green on this is very VERY bright green, if it was any brighter you could prob see it in the dark. The zipper is durable and I wouldn't be surprised if it held up longer than the case itself"
+2497,1,NOT MADE IN USA - ALLEGEDLY LEATHER,"In the description, this belt is supposed to be made in the USA. When it arrived, the belt was in a ""Made in China"" bag. I would keep it, if it were of better quality than the belts that come free with women's pants. In fact, it is worse quality. If it is truly leather, it is the ugliest sort. I am sending this back."
+2498,2,Their journey on bicycles with their children's book manuscripts among their few possessions is recounted here with pictures,"Curious George is beloved and known by adults and kids around the world - but few have heard of the history of his creators, Hans and Margret Rey, who had to flee their Paris home as the Germans invaded. Their journey on bicycles with their children's book manuscripts among their few possessions is recounted here with pictures, flare and drama. Borden uses primary resources, including Rey's own pocket diaries, to tell their tale in The Journey That Saved Curious George: The True Wartime Escape Of Margret And H.A. Rey, with Allan Drummond's drawings and vintage black and white photos throughout enhancing the biography and action."
+2499,1,Someone needs to retire from movies,Movie was Okay and I would not watch again. But after 3 drinks it did start to look better okay .
+2500,2,Just what I wanted.,"Unlike many VHS packs I looked at, these came just as described, packed in sets of four tapes with original shrink wrap. That is what I wanted."
+2501,1,Cheap learners pliers,"The pliers were hard to use at first very stiff, and then the metal bent so they could no longer be used. They are made very cheap and I should have thought about it more since they were going to be used for motorcycles and other odds and end things. My suggestion is not to purchase these go for a more name brand approach because these are not worth it and a name brand is only a few dollars more. They are made in China btw there is no name on these at all!"
+2502,1,"Yes, it IS beautifully flawed.","Sure it's pretty, but it's also pretty useless. Like Hobbs (another reviewer) noted, the knob to hold the fan at a particular angle DOESN'T hold. So it blows air where IT wants, not where I want. Obviously, this is a problematic product. I should have known better, given how many ""factory reconditioned"" ones I have seen available. Gee, wonder why the factory has so many available to recondition. Dumb me for buying it. Do yourself a favor and find a real vintage fan at a thrift store."
+2503,2,Excellent,"I thought the book was excellent! I really enjoyed the story and the detail that was given about the victim, Dr. Brockton's life and the Cooke County Sheriff's Department.If your a first time reader you will enjoy the book, and if you are familiar with Dr. Bass as I am you will be able to relate to this novel."
+2504,1,Save Your Money,"I don't know why people are raving about this tub. I think it's just horrible. I bought one for my son before he was born. He is 4 months old now, and I'm looking for a new tub to buy. I did like the hammock feature with this tub, but that's the only good aspect. (Hence two stars instead of just one.) My son slides all over the place in this tub on the infant side. It's just a poor design. The green padding is not mold/mildew resistant. I wipe down the tub with soap every day and let it air dry after using it, but it's still starting to smell. I tried ripping off some of the padding, unfortunately it doesn't come off well. I would recommend a different design without padding."
+2505,1,are you kidding???,"i tried the visualization!!! i envisioned my self in a ferrari with Paris Hilton and i tried so hard it almost came to me but the problem was Paris was in jail :(. so i thought mabey i should really ask, believe, and recive, that didnt work either but it did get Paris out of jail loool.and then when i thought it about deeply i found out the secret is not about me and Paris Hilton, its about the human greet and the overwhelming desire of people trying to control their life and accepting any brian farts(or according to the book ideas) that fullfills this desire of control that we are never gonna have."
+2506,2,Brenda Ueland--The Old Friend You've Never Met,"Reading Brenda Ueland's essays are like chatting with an old friend. Her description, enthusiasm, and sheer enjoyment of writing permeate every page of this charming book. Each essay is short--between 2 and 4 pages--and deals with a single topic, making it possible to skip between topics rather than read from page one. Her characters are colorful and wonderfully drawn--you will feel as if you were sitting in the park with her, listening to this marvelous woman telling tales of her amazing life!"
+2507,1,An unrealistic propaganda machine,"In Anthem, Ayn Rand creates a society of collectivization that has no discernable basis for its power in the world. The book is a method of propagating atheism, self-worship, and anarchism."
+2508,1,Disappointment,I found that this was not my type of recreation reading. I could not relate to any of the characters nor did I find them compelling.
+2509,1,I Hate This Phone,"I really wanted a corded phone in addition to my cordless phone, but not one that had a lot of features I didn't need (answering machine, caller ID, etc.) because I have those on my cordless phone.Anyway, when I saw this, it really caught my eye. It has a classic design with contemporary flair. The price wasn't bad either. The push buttons with the rotary style is a nice detailOne drawback is that the receiver is very heavy. The shape of the receiver makes it difficult to put the phone on your shoulder to talk hands-free. I did that on the receiver slipped, hitting me in the lip and teeth. OUCH!When it is near an electronic device (like my laptop), there is annoying static on the phone."
+2510,2,Concise and captivating,"Eisenhower is one of the greatest leaders of our century. Ambrose really gives you the details without boring, and mundane facts. Feel what is must have been like to plan the D-Day invasion, and then deal with the Cold War. Eisenhower was a masterful leader often practicing Carnegie principles to motivate his people. Charismatic, and brilliant, people instinctively followed him. Ambrose does an awesome job of putting us in Ike's shoes."
+2511,1,Missed it,"I may never know why people worshipped this man. Repeated listenings to this album have brought me no closer. Self-indlugent music, shallow lyrics, what's to like? Maybe I will learn . . ."
+2512,2,Great book - lots of fun,"We hold an annual Christmas Party where we challenge guests to create a novel drink recipe... and then we have a taste testing competition, and the winner gets a trophy. We bought this book to inspire guests to try new things, and it has been a lot of fun."
+2513,1,I don't even...,Has anyone really been far even as read to chapter 1 even go want to read look more like any?Holy crap!
+2514,1,Defective for the 3rd time since 11/2008,"I bought the 1st one in 11/2008. It failed in 02/2009. Belkin sent a replacement but I had to pay to ship the old one back.Installed the replacement on 02/20/2009. It failed on 02/24/2009. After I complained, they sent another one with a call tag so there was no charge to me. Installed it on 03/16/2009.Now the 2nd replacement has failed (05/18/2009). Same problems, running very Hot, loses connection, etc.Submitted a complaint to the Consumer Products Safety Commission. Only a matter of time before one of these causes a fire for someone."
+2515,2,And so it goes,This book provides an extensive overview of the treatment options for prostate cancer. It cleared up a number of misunderstandings which I had.
+2516,1,Very hard to understand,I've read a lot of seriesbooks in my life. This series is one of the worst. Very different and strange. I can't even finish the book because It's very boring. If you guys love this series go for it.
+2517,1,where's the Mac data?,"another product that fails to mention that it is for windows.I really believe that most people who use the product, would own a MAC.The product was well written, and highly informative, but of little use to aMAC owner."
+2518,1,"bad unit, worse service","Before you buy anything from these clowns, try calling their customer serviceafter spending a half hour with the guy he said i had a bad unit but that they couldn't help me. thats the first and last mediagear product i am going to buy!"
+2519,2,The Very Best Of Otis Redding,"One of his best, not one song did I not like, and you can't find better prices any where for your music needs. I've looked around and I couldn't find anyone that could match Amazon's great prices for CD's and DVD's."
+2520,1,Great Pictures but Wow I can't get the cartridge out!!!!!,"I love the quality of this printer. I have had so much fun printing Cd labels. Unlike the other reviewers, I was actually surprised that the ink lasted as long as it did. I don't know if I just don't do as much printing as others but I was surprised. My problem was in changing the cartridges. It is very hard. I presently have two that won't come out at all. I have sent an email to Epson but I am ready to throw the whole thing in the dumpster. My fingers are so sore from trying to get them out that I am thinking of buying another brand. When I bought it, the reviews were pretty good, but there were some who said it was expensive to get the ink. I was prepared to spend the money for good pictures. I replaced the cartridges once with no problem but now I am unable to replace the ones that are empty. It doesn't work at all with empty cartridges so I can't use it all. I will probably buy a Canon........"
+2521,1,Halper's collection,"The pictures are indeed magnificent, however, I must demur about the accompanying text which does not provide appropriate, tightly written or in some instances, historically accurate information."
+2522,1,post-humous,"Elvis is back from the grave, his vocal chords are decayed and there's dirt stuck in his ears."
+2523,2,Wow!,I purchased this mower to replace my 5 yr old John Deere. All I can say is wow. I can literally mow with one hand.
+2524,2,Copy-cat,"Overall I thought Eragon was a pretty good book. I liked the way Paolini described the land, people, and dragons. Although, he needs to learn to be more original. I can see getting your inspiration from a book (The Lord of the Rings) but this is just taking it too far. Paolini is obviously talented so he should use his talent and creat something of his own!Eragon needs to stop being so inquisitive. Some of his questions that are needed to describe things could be answered through the story instead of by the characters. The story has an okay plot line and I am eager to see where it takes Eragon. But advice for Paolini on future books, use your imagination and do something original! It's easy to imitate other books but it takes talent to come up with something new."
+2525,2,The Golden Compass,"Brent Henderson's Review For The Golden CompassIt was a great book because it was very adventurous and it made sense, although the ending was kind of sad. It was long, but not too long. I read the whole ""His Dark Materials"" series, but this is my favorite. I couldn't put it down!"
+2526,1,Not Worth Your Money!,"First things first, I really liked NSync's first CD, and yes, you could say that I was a fan. But their 2nd CD is a HUGE downfall. It lacks originality and inspiration. NSYNC seems to be straining. NSYNC just don't fit the RAP/Hipp Hop image that they are going for (obviously). The only songs worth hearing are BYE BYE BYE and THIS I PROMISE YOU. Other than that, stay away from this CD.Obviously, unlike the BSB who HAS TALENT AND ORIGINALITY, NSYNC is fan based by those 10-17 year old girls. All NSYNC wants to strive for is to get a certain RESPECT and win over the BSB by album sells. They will be remembered for their FAN-BASED album sells but not their TRUE TALENTS. They have NO talent whatsoever.If you want to hear some good music, check out Backstreet Boys' 'Millenium' or NSYNC's FIRST album. They are much much better. Only wild fans who don't care about the CD's content would get this junk CD!"
+2527,1,Messenger Bag,"I like the bag, but! There are some issues if you are using this to lug around books and a small lap top for school.- the buckles on the sides of the bag roll around, which causes the strap to twist.- I found that due to the flimsines of the bag that trying to get into compartments quicly during my college classes is a struggle.- It's a nice bag, but if your going to put it through the grind of everyday use, it's not what I want. A nice canvas messenger bag is something I will look for."
+2528,1,Space bar does not work during normal typing,The Keyboard design is fantastic! Nevertheless I would highly recommend that you AVOID this model. During normal typing 1 out of every 20 times you hit the space bar it will work. Your sentences become one big long stream of letters and you have to unnaturally SLAM the space bar to make it work. Not a good keyboard for anyone that does typing faster than 5 - 8 WPM
+2529,1,Absolutely Horrid - No Wonder It's OOP!,"This book was just so poorly written and disappointing, no wonder it's out of print!There's no new information or photos presented here (they're not even notated, dated or described), and it was a complete waste of time and money for this Beach Boys/Dennis Wilson fan.Everything from the ridiculous contradictions, cheap stereotyping, absence of fact checking, constant meandering into irrelevant subjects, insipid and elitist opinions with oh-so-lovely flourishes of anti-Americanism and anti-Semitism (real nice touch), to the glaring spelling and grammar errors - was horrendous to read. It wouldn't be an exaggeration at all to say this book is almost completely unreadable; the author can barely complete a sentence.This effort is light years away from what the Dennis Wilson story really deserves.Negative 10 stars."
+2530,2,Pringle Does It Again,"I confess to having a vested interest in Hamish Pringle's writing--I was his co author on the highly successful Brand Spirit: How Cause Related Marketing Builds Brands. He followed that up with a collaboration with someone in consultancy--Brand Manners and now Celebrity Sells. His genial and affable style, accessible to media and communications experts and lay people alike, is built on a firm foundation of careful analysis and case studies. He also captures the zeitgeist--explaining what it is about the 'celebrification' of culture in the early 21st century that strikes a chord with consumers. I can't wait for his next book!"
+2531,2,A delicious novel,"A friend lent me this book and I was captured by the voice the minute I opened it. Hendricks is extremely skilled in crafting lovely sentences that just keep pulling you along. The setting (Seattle) is so well-rendered, and the recipes (try them!) actually do produce delicious treats (okay, I only attempted the caramel-espresso chocolate torte, but it was a smash hit, and I'm no chef. Be warned, though, you won't sleep). I highly recommend this book, especially to readers who are in a transitional phase in their lives."
+2532,2,Completely different---completely effective!,"I've read many introductory books to bridge, and this is in a league of its own! A very simple, straightforward, logical approach to playing. The book begins with the playing of the hands (in no-trump then trump), and moves to bidding as a logical extension of the ability to win tricks. This approach is unique, and takes allows the player to LEARN the proper bidding, rather than to memorize (too) many sets of numbers for bidding hands. Also, I felt that the other books I have read did not offer a strong foundation in the playing-out of the hands. I'll be purchasing copies for non-bridge-playing friends! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!"
+2533,1,HORRIBLE AWFUL DEPRESSING,"Stick to the cable series, it's much better. I was really looking forward to reading the book (because the book is usually better than the movie/tv show, right? WRONG!).The book is SO poorly written (random dialogue with nothing to tie the random comments together), there's no story that I could discern, the characters are loathsome and shallow and devoid of any redeeming qualities. I had trouble picturing these ""stories"" as newspaper articles either. What was the point of this book??If you're really curious, BORROW IT first."
+2534,1,Dangerous!,"When my husband and I ordered this stroller, we read all of the great reviews. Yes, the stroller is great looking. Yes, it rides really smoothly. However, upon actually using the stroller, we have had the front swivel wheel fall off of the stroller TWICE while both of our daughters were inside. The front wheel is attached with a lock-in lever, which apparently comes loose on its own, after use. This is a dangerous stroller and should be purchased with great caution. I am trying to get in contact with InStep, as the wheel should be screwed in securely, not with a latch. This is recall material!"
+2535,2,Presto cooffee maker,We use this coffee maker every day and sometimes several times a day. we are very pleased with it.
+2536,1,Overrated.,"I can't understand why this book is considered the ""go-to"" book for bipolar. There's a lot of filler, and the chapter on depression is ridiculous: Do more fun things! Except of course, things aren't exactly ""fun"" if you're seriously depressed. I also don't think it's very helpful in enabling people to recognize the onset of a BP episode. I completely agree with Jecca's review; ""Break the Bipolar Cycle"", while not perfect, is a MUCH better book."
+2537,2,Very cute!!,"My toddler loves to store her My Little Pony's in this bag. I love the fact that all the little pieces are picked up and stored in a secure place where my infant can not get to them. The outside of the bag is very cute, the zipper has withstood lots and lots of zipping and unzipping, and the pink is a very pretty bright color.I would definitely buy this item again!"
+2538,1,Nice idea - poor finish,"I think most of the gushing reviewers here are in love with the ""concept"" of this film. I love southern colleges and the halftime experience too, but this movie is poorly made. Too cliche, too predictable, and overall just a simple product. However, until a good movie is made regarding this topic; line up and join the masses that seem to be ""falling over themselves"" about this movie based on the idea of the story."
+2539,2,Great highly portable navigation system,"I love the fact that this units fits in a shirt pocket and can run for many hours on one recharge. I bought it to replace my Garmin Quest that was lost/stolen. Unlike the original Quest, this one holds all of North America (no more reloading maps every time I travel). However, I have noticed that the Quest 2 (compared with the original Quest) is slower calculating routes, finding things, and refreshing the map as you travel. I suspect this is because of the increased memory (the amount of data it has to go through). For me the speed is acceptable but you can wait for 30 seconds or so while it plots longer routes. If you love portable use and small units for traveling, get this one, unless you are impatient with these things."
+2540,1,"CORNY, RIDICULOUS, SILLY MOVIE.",DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME ON THIS STUPID MOVIE. IT IS AS CORNY AS CORNY GETS.
+2541,1,This is a great series but there was something wrong with the production of the DVDs I received.,"The series is great, Amazon is great, the price was great; however, be forewarned: the production of these DVDs from A&E; was very bad. Several of the DVDs in each season had a glitch, i.e., the sound/dialogue didn't match up with the actors' speech/movements. It was out of sync. We sent it back for a replacement which Amazon was great about, and the same thing happened again but just to the first season of DVDs, so it's hit or miss. It's a shame because this was a gift for Christmas. By the way, there is nothing wrong with my DVD player. These were the only DVDS that this has ever happened to out of all the movies we own.I'm really disappointed that A&E; didn't have quality control on these."
+2542,1,One unhappy customer!!!,"The movie is great, but the ""digital download"" is crap! I will never purchase multi-format DVD's from Warner Bros again! This is very misleading and a complete waste of my hard earned money!!!"
+2543,1,Damaged Merchandise,This item is a damaged trio of DVD's in a smashed plastic DVD case contained within an undamaged colorful cardboard box. The DVD's are damaged and can't be used.
+2544,1,"From the sample, this one is useless.","Based on a warning on a similar pd dictionary, I downloaded the sample. Is useless. The Spanish characters read as gibberish. So seems useless. Anyone know a good Spanish/English/Spanish dictionary (particularly one that works on the iphone)?"
+2545,1,Sick movie,With all the violence and depravity in this world why would someone want to make a disgusting film like this. This film just adds to it.Spend your time doing something positive and productive rather than watching this sick film.
+2546,1,Not an easy read,"I have read just about everything Stephen Hunter has written. I have enjoyed them all, but this one was just not there for me. It is a historically accurate account of the attempt on President Truman, but it is written in a disjointed style. It jumps from place to place, goes back in time, then forward, and then back again. I hope that this was a one time effort and is not how Mr. Hunter will proceed with his books."
+2547,1,Rock bottom,"The only reason I was able to finish this book was the fact that I had read all five books and it would have been a shame not to read the last. However, the real shame was the book itself."

+2551,2,good battery,purchase experience was very good. Delivery was fast and product exactly what I ordered.
+2552,2,Everyday Math Grades 4-6,"I use this book in my math classes as a warm up for the students. It's got a good review and it's a fun way to do some holiday math. Recommended for teachers and parents who want a review or just a mini math lesson. This book is in my ""used"" section - it gets pulled off the shelf often. The kids enjoy them!"
+2553,1,Clip Breaks Too Easily...,"I ended up going through three of these holsters before I gave up and started carrying my Blackberry in my pocket (before I switched to my Android). The problem I kept having was that the clip would break off. Each time it broke off clean at the rotating joint. This was very troubling because the phone would just quietly fall off my hip and land on the floor. If I had been in a busy or loud location, the phone would have been most likely lost.I have to add that I do not abuse these. Actually, I work in an office and wear a suit all day so there really is no physical labor or stress on this holster. It simply fails after a couple of months of use. After my experience, I would not trust my phone and all the information on it with this holster.Overall, this is a great idea that is poorly designed and manufactured.-Cheers"
+2554,1,Covers don't quite measure up,"We received this as a gift for our toddler. These are covers of the songs we'd come to love in some of our favorite Pixar films. It was a bit confusing and disappointing. In and of themselves, the songs are fine, but if you're looking for the originals, this isn't what you're looking for."
+2555,1,What the deal on the price of this box set!,"So I have this box set on my ""want list""...I go there yesterday (02/08/2012) and it is $67.00. I think, great deal, I go back today to buy it and the price is $124.00! Amazon you are so f'ed! I see this all the time. You see someone look at an item and you raise the price! Anyone else have this experience with Amazon items?"
+2556,1,MINDLESS MUSIC FOR THE MINDLESS MASSES,"If you are a self-loathing manic depressive who wears pointy shoes and black fingernail polish then you probably own this already, the 80's were a horrible decade for music and trying to revive it with newer bands is equally bad."
+2557,1,Avoid this Product,"I agree with Ordonez below: this product will stop working for no apparent reason. I believed the hype and went ahead and purchased it. After a few week it was like ..wham.. no longer working. The computers do not even recognize the product, the blue light doesnt come on..nothing. I contacted sandisk for a replacement and they have not replied since. It just doesn't make any sense. This is how bad rep starts with a company product; word of mouth from disgruntled customers. However I will try to contact them again"
+2558,1,Not enough help,"This book came up a little light. I really didn't learn anything new or enlightening.If you have just started to follow racing, it could be a help. But not if you have been following and handicapping for years."
+2559,1,Not a quality product.,"So far, I have rewound 3 tapes with this device. The rewinder sounds as bad as the one I was attempting to replace - squeaking as it rewinds. It is very slow and fails to open after reaching the start of the tape. Rather than opening, it remains shut and sounds like it is burning out the motor as it continues to attempt to rewind the tape - exactly like the old one does."
+2560,1,Only REAL hip hop fans would see how boring this album is.,"I miss the Wu- Tang of old before they became arrogent, money crazed sellouts. This album is sooo mainsteam. Not only that its all so slow. I was always a fan of our wu boys when they did the intense songs. But there is not a one on this album. What I'll give him is ocassionally puts some decent jazzy loops in the songs. Overall I'm not sorry I bought this album because there some good songs on here. But overall I think Mr. Tical needs to give away all of his money and go back to his creative days when he was a poor, innovative artist."
+2561,1,"The title should be ""FOR WOMEN WHO HAVE NO LIFE OUTSIDE OF DATING MEN""","If you are a woman who has no life outside of whatever man you are trying to pursue, then this is the book for you.This book pretty much tells women to pretend to have a life outside of your boyfriend or lover, only then will he realize how truly amazing you are.Only then will the man will try to pursue you and feel like he is winning you over, you alpha female you!Man's thoughts: ""Gosh, she has friends that she goes to the mall with on Saturdays and yoga in the evenings on weekdays, she's such a busy and important lady. She doesn't need a man in her life, that's why I like her.""For all women out there, I know finding the right person is tough.But please stop caring so much about having a relationship with a man.Find your own happiness within yourself.You don't need to read this book to tell you to go out and have a life!!!!!!"
+2562,1,ur so fragile,"boring music for boring people. typical... copy of a copy of copies copied from copies. We all know the story... I'm sure they felt good making this music, but failed to realize they are concocting a college campus. Just looking at the song titles anyone should be able to realize the lack of creativity in this collective. i do not have nerves of steal. if you think this music is emotional, you need to be compacted into lampshades."
+2563,1,Ice Not Nice,"Being that the doors at my place of work are constantly open, humid and hot air is always lingering. Ice bandana seemed like a good idea to help me keep cool. In less than 2 hours, the ever-so-slight cooling stopped; my shifts are a minimum of 4 hours. Also, the tie in the front of the bandana looks ""dorky"" - something I'd be willing to overlook if the product worked. Even during the first hour, the bandana didn't fit snugly against the skin because the ice insert is stiff. This product is a huge disappointment and a waste of money. It's best to keep searching for something else; even if you find nothing, you won't have lined the pockets of the companies who sell this product."
+2564,2,Great and Tasty Cook Book!,"I just have to say, I've made several of the items in the book and have loved them all. Easy to make. All of the ingredients are listed (with some tips too). Nutritional info is provided. Great book. Not like the original, but provides some wonderful alternatives if you're trying to eat healty."
+2565,1,Makes more of a mess than it cleans!,"Ugh!!! This vacuum sucks...or rather doesn't suck! The first few times I used it, it seemed to work okay, though it was not effective on our hardwood floors. It has only gotten worse...Now, rather than sucking up dirt, it just spits it back out spraying dirt in ALL directions. I am now searching for a new vacuum cleaner after having this one for just a few months!Do not buy this vacuum...unless you enjoy purchasing a new one every few months!"
+2566,2,Absolutely love this binder!,"I needed a large binder for all of my CNC and computer reference manuals and this fit the bill perfectly!It's large capacity was able to accommodate everything I needed and then some. I was even able to fill the front and back pockets with some miscellaneous manuals that I was just storing on the floor.The one touch EZD ring is just that, easy.Couldn't ask for a better binder at this price. I will definitely be purchasing more in the future.Pros:Large capacity.Front and rear pockets on the inside.The one touch D ring system works perfectly and holds much more then a standard O ring binder.NOTHING sticks to it! Great for in the workshop.Not made in China.Cons:None."
+2567,2,Great book!,"ANYthing by Jack McDevitt is worth the purchase price. I've read everything by him that I could find, and he just never disappoints!"
+2568,1,No longer plays music after using half a dozen times,"I bought this mobile after researching all the mobiles available online. I purchased this one after reading all the positive responses and considering the value. My daughter has not even slept in her crib yet, so we've only turned the mobile on about half a dozen times. Last night, I realized it will no longer play the music, so I guess I'm going to have to try and return it. Not sure what I'll buy next time, but probably not this one."
+2569,2,Best rpg game ever,"my opinion, da best rpg there ever was! great story line and supa dupa fly plot to go wit that! dis legend is totally planned out cuz it did take 3 years to make dis game. totally awesome. everybody should buy dis game right here. tight!!! Im not really an rpg gamer but dis totally made me more interested! I will never forget this game!"
+2570,2,"Great, New Direction for Baldacci","WISH YOU WELL by David Baldacci is my favorite of all the Baldacci books I have read and listened to, and it is completely different from his mystery/espionage novels. In this book, which he wrote for his own children, he depicts the times in which his ancestors lived in the Twentietn Century. Although fictionalized the characters, New York City youngsters, are very real and come alive as they struggle with being virtually orphaned and going to live with their comatose mother and their great grandmother on a poor farm in West Virginia. The children grow through hardships and learn from their very different and very difficult life in this poor but self-sustaining new life. The story is warm hearted and pulls you along as you yearn to help the children in the lessons of life they learn so well. It is a delightful listen or read."
+2571,2,Great Item overall.,"I ordered 4 of these to burn some videos i needed, i read the entire page to make sure i was buying the right product. It was in fact just one disc in is own case. Item arrived very fast and was actually packaged in excellent condition. The advertising was not misleading and i am very pleased with this item, I would recommend it to anyone that wants just a few dvd's for a cheap price."
+2572,2,Great book,Received this book super fast - which was great since I needed to read it for my class.The book was in perfect condition!
+2573,1,Just awful.,"We bought this for the diaper bag when my first was ready to potty train. My second is using the potty now, and I pulled it out to give it one more shot. It doesn't fit well on any toilet seat, public or residential, it slides around horribly, and it bows under my kids' weight causing the joints to catch skin. Both of my kids ended up sideways and screaming on the toilet with pinched thighs, and I had to support their weight to keep them from falling in. I wanted so badly for this to work, but it doesn't. :("
+2574,1,Many CDs don't work,"I thought it was my burner, then I tried other blanks from another case, and they work. I won't buy any of these ever again."
+2575,2,Blanket,"Once again brought this for my kids father he loved it. Ben is one of his favorite players, so I brought it for him. But could've made the Ben on the white jersey a lil bit better. Ben in the black jersey is fine. But he still loved it tho."
+2576,1,Check the Track Listing,"Flying, Blue Jay Way, Your Mother Should Know, Baby You're A Rich Man. Did the group just not try to write a complete album or were they out of ideas? The so-called better tracks, Penny Lane and Strawberry Fiels suffer from Paul's lightweight writing and John's nasally singing - ""Straw Berry Fieeeelds For Eveh..""Ugh.Who knows, but it sure doesn't stand up to anything before or after its release. Anyone who rates this 5-stars is simply swept up in the Beatles. They can't be listening to the music."
+2577,1,K-TEL junk,"Only two tracks are the original: Happy Together by the Turtles and Gimme Little Sign by Brenton Wood. The other 16 are re-recorded. The front and back covers have this statement: ""All selections are new stereo recordings performed by the opriginal artist or one or more members of the original group. Selections marked with an (*) are the original recordings.""Stay away from this substandard compilation.See uploaded images.K-TEL UPC 805087354127ECD EAN 5020959304627"
+2578,2,Lovely blend of 70s styles,"This is a lovely blend of late 70's styles like disco (Hot Chocolate), big ballads (Rex Smith), wistful pop (John Paul Young, Robert John), power pop (The Knack), atmospheric rock (Nick Gilder), catchy singalong pop (Quattro & Norman) plus a couple of lesser known but still great tracks by Ian Gomm, Nicolette Larson, etc. I remember 1978 as a great year for good music in which singles sales reached a record high, in a decade that I consider the golden age of pop music. Even dance music had personality then and wasn't just mass-produced 4 beats to the bar anonymous variations on a theme. My favorites here include the tense, erotic ""Hot Child"", the dreamy, hypnotic ""Love Is In The Air"", the poppy disco of ""Everyone's A Winner"" and the sensitive ""Sad Eyes."" Vol. 22 makes a valuable contribution to an excellent series."
+2579,1,Not loud,"This is my second purchase of this product. My wife tried to clean the first one and ruined it. It worked quite well.The replacement (about 4 years later) was not as loud as the original. It required fewer batteries, so my thought is they remanufactured it to be more energy efficient.Unfortunately the new alarm is significantly quieter rendering it essentally unusable."
+2580,1,Bad Trip,"This film deserves at least one star for one reason and one reason only: the cameraman did manage to keep it in focus. I don't believe I've ever seen a concept with such strong potential so completely bungled. Ex-hippies turned yuppies turned crazed baldheaded killing machines who don't like disco? Who wouldn't want to see this story told? It's no mystery why Zalman King gave up his acting career to become a softcore director. What is a mystery is how Robert Walden managed to be in this atrocity and ""All the President's Men"" in the same year!"
+2581,1,I quit,I don't know I just lost interest and quit 3/4 of the way through. After awhile I just didn't care about any of the characters. Nothing like Silver Lining.
+2582,1,Length not as advertised,"This is a very pretty necklace but it is way too long. It is 20 inches, though the ad said 16. I had to pay a jeweler an extra $20 to shorten it 4 inches. I would have preferred to return it, but my husband wanted his mother to keep it. Therefore we ended up paying an extra $20. Would not buy from them again."
+2583,2,I wouldn't say 'dreadful',"I read this book during a binge of early 20th century gay fiction and I wouldn't say it was 'dreadful.' If you're talking esoterics, Ronald Firbanks is the bloke you want! Wyndham Lewis was equally unrewarding. There was at least some humor in The Young and Evil, when the protag pukes on the straight woman! I laughed. The copy they interlibrary loaned me was printed in Paris on handmade paper--you probably won't find anything so opulent on Amazon . . . I digress, I caught more of a Joycean feeling than Stein but I can't stand that woman!"
+2584,2,Journeying Dilbert's world with Scott Adams,"This book is amazing. I would probably say that of most of Dilbert books, but what I truly appreciate about this strip treasury is the careful selection made by the Author and also the handwritten commments below every stip. Thanks to these add-on you can get much more of the behind the scenes on how the humour of the characters is conceived and on how to draw and compose comics. For me this is an interesting added value while maybe someone just prefer to enjoy the comic stand-alone. I would reccomend buying it mainly if you are already a Dilbert fan although it can be a very insightful introduction to newcomers of Dilbert's world"

+2587,2,A Must-have for Wisconsin Winter,I've had Yaktrax before and wore them out after several winters. I use them when shovelling and walking my dogs. These are great on icy roads or sidewalks. I can slip them onto my sneakers or boots (buy a size larger if your boots are heavily insulated with large soles) and no longer 'ice skate' when walking.
+2588,1,DOES NOT WORK,"Needed a cheap BP cuff, but when it arrived, the sphygmamometer would not register the pressure inside the inflated cuff until the bladder was about halfway inflated, making this device little more than a flotation device for small animals.

+2590,2,Giggle Mask is an instant hit,"A co-worker with a 6-year-old son recommended the Giggle Mask to me when I was searching for a present for a friend's 6-year-old. It was an excellent recommendation. The Giggle Mask was an instant hit (once the adults assembled the base, as recommended.) The assembly was easy and the fun was immediate. Best, it has a volume control, so even though it's a noise-based toy, it's manageable. There are numerous small parts and no place to store them, but add a couple of zipper-style plastic bags and the problem is resolved."
+2591,1,"Absolute trash, break too easily","Don't bother with these, they are junk. I snapped one before it even turned a full revolution and another one snapped after being used for about 10 seconds. I bought them to use for broken bolts, and I could see it if the bolts were hardened, but they are standard bolts on a VW car. I finally used a regular drill bit and an Easy-Out. I wish I hadn't wasted the money on them. Buyer beware."
+2592,2,magical cinematic expression,"The story of Alec and Black and the strong bond between them was one of my favorite movies as a kid, and it's still a favorite of mine. My favorite scenes from the movie are the ones that occur during the first 45 minutes. The scenes where they're stranded on the island are so magical that I almost feel disappointed when they get rescued. After that, everything becomes much more ordinary: not bad, necessarily, but ordinary. Up until the racing scene, when all the beauty apparent in the island scenes resurfaces. Throughout, the cinematography, production values, and acting are first-rate, and the story has become classic. This is such a great movie, and not just for kids."
+2593,1,Eh.........,"It wasn't a bad book, really, but it didn't do much for me. I found myself thinking 'Lord of the Flies' the entire time I was reading about young Richard and his exploits. If this book is in your 'Maybe Read' pile, I'd say just watch the movie with Leonardo DiCaprio. The scenery there is awesome and more relationships develop on screen than in the book. Most of the movie follows the book in lockstep. There is some crazy violence in the book that didn't make it to the big screen, however.You never know - you might like it. For me, though, it was a fairly unmemorable book."
+2594,1,Dangerous Product for Pets!,"I've used the Nylabones for my dogs (Pugs) for a while now. I've always thought they were safe and that the little pieces that to break off were harmless to a dog. This was my impression from reading about them.I was almost dead wrong. I stress the 'almost' as $2,300 in vet bills later, my dog is recovering. She had 3 dime- to quarter-size chunks permanently lodged in her stomach that resulted in a blockage. A blockage that resulted in 4 days of vomiting bile and loosing 10% of her body weight.Be warned and stay away from this product."
+2595,2,Great practical examples,I really benefited from this bookj because it contains very good examples of how to build a db api in java. The only downside is that there's no CD and no link to download the source code.
+2596,2,touchless stainless trash can,I have had this trash can for 3 years. Absolutely amazing! It finally died after 3 years of everyday use. highly recommend! Loved it! No problems whatsoever.
+2597,1,Not as good as you might hope,"While I have enjoyed previous TMBG cds this one is just not working for eithe me or my son. He screams if I put it on, and not a good scream.The songs feel a little forced and boring, often they don't even seem like kids songs more like songs no one would like."
+2598,1,Great product but flimsy quallity,I think Panasonic has the best hair products but this one is too plastic and broke after just a couple of months use.
+2599,2,Evolve or Dissolve!,"To anybody who feels that metal should stay stagnant in their progress of their evolution should then stay with Linkin Park, Trapt or Godsmack. If you do you won't ever be disappointed. For those of you who take great pride in watching some of your favorite bands take the next step in musical progress should then take a hardy bite out of this album. Coined with the category ""Math Metal"" by Chad Grey this band is as distant from Nu-Metal as Tool or Deftones as I have heard it described by some. This album blends the raw vocals and unpredictable time signatures of ""LD50"" with the melody of their follow up album ""The End of All Things to Come"" and then pushed the envelope a little more. Mudvayne is much more polished and for that I commend them. And also for that they are a much superior band than they used to be. So get your @$$ moving and pick up this album. You won't be disappointed!"
+2600,2,Amazing,This is absolutely amazing. Everyone should sit down with their family and watch this. The photographers are to be commended.
+2601,2,Great speaker for a great price,You cant go wrong with these speakers. The price and the sound are great. Easy to install. Maybe a little fragile.
+2602,2,item was great but shipping was BAD..................,I would never again order from this site again not only did it take forever for the package to come but the box came really damaged that i didnt want to even give it to the person i brought it for as a gift.....................thank you for nothing
+2603,1,Find another table,I ordered this same product through another website. It is not of good quality. The seats of the chair are made of glass so they immediately cracked when I sat on them. The table-top does not fasten securely to the base so it slide around and I was worried that it would crack like the chairs. I am returning my product if the company can come and get it from me.
+2604,1,Worthless Piece of Crap!,"This thing needs a High Med Low setting cause the only setting it has is Low. I made a cup of really nice organic Japanese Shade grown tea ($40 an ounce) and asked my wife to bring me an ice cube to warm it up after it had been on the heater for 10 minutes. The pad gets pretty hot, but not near hot enough to keep a cup of coffee hot. After something has been sitting on it for about 10 - 15 minutes you can gulp it with no fear of getting burnt. A Worthless piece of Crap. I will see if it works as a candle warmer."

+2606,1,Potassium exposed?,"Unfortunately this piece of fluff is more interested in promoting an agenda than providing solid scientific information for the reader. It promotes the intake of potassium without consideration of the problems for people who are taking medically prescribed medications for other conditions. It is unclear as to how much potassium you should take,how and when. Nor does it relate the connections with sodium and caffeine which the author seems to deem as bad without pointing out that sodium is necessary for life and none of the serious studies about caffeine have indicated a reason not to consume it in an intelligent manner."
+2607,2,"Not as great as the other seasons. Still missing Dana... it was great seeing her ""ghost"" in one episode!",I find that the 4th season was not as good as the previous ones. I love all the characters but I did not like Shane moving on so quickly with Paige. She seem to be more the person that Carmen wanted but without Carmen.
+2608,2,Cool watch,My girlfriend really loves this watch that I gave her. Hope that there will be another sale in the future!
+2609,2,Shop-Vac 6 Horse,"For an inexpensive shop vac, this does the trick, the hose is very flexible and does not pull out of the canister as in my experience the Sears model does. Light and easliy pulled, buy it and you will not be dissappointed."
+2610,1,This was not written to inform you.,"Neither was this written to entertain you.Nor to intrigue you.This book was written to impress upon you that Mark Kurlansky is SO EXCELLENT, that even the super-secretive BASQUES talk to him.Oh, my.This book is a collection of anecdotes and some recipes, and a couple hundred pages of unreadable far-left fascism vs. far-left communism vs. Vichy France-ism vs. Nazis. And the Basques. Love big-terrorism? Go Basques! Big deal.I had read a semi-interesting novel by Katherine Neville called ""The Fire"" which indulged in quite a bit of Basque hearth-worshipping backstory. I thought this book would be interesting, too. I was wrong."
+2611,1,Uninterested,My dog didn't seem to care for this product at all. He also had quite a bit of trouble trying to carry it in his mouth. Definitely not one of his favorite Nylabones.
+2612,2,"Agree with Harry Kruz-Make 3x8, 4x8, or even 6x6 sizes!","I am neutral on the rating; I don't have this product, but I have to chime in with Harry Kruz... If the manufacturer is listening-there's a HUGE market for bigger sizes and more color choices. Many exercises require more than one plane of motion, even on the floor; and stretching, abs, and many other workouts would benefit from a 3x8, 4x8, and even 6x6 and 8x8 mat for partner exercises. All this should be available in various thicknesses. I'm a fitness professional, and my clients have a wide range of needs in this area. I'd like to be able to better meet those needs. Let's take it into the new century!"
+2613,2,"very easy,very fun",this game is a lot of fun. While you can beat it in less then 1 week you will probably play it a few times.
+2614,2,Great movie,My best friend told me about this movie.. very good movie...I love low budget movies..and john carpenter is the masterno one can write like him...
+2615,2,Lots of fun,"I really enjoyed this book. Not only was the author's voice sharp and witty, but she took a shot at answering the question so many women ask themselves: what if? Who hasn't wondered what would happen if they could get back the one that got away - and the fact that the main character is already married makes it all the more fun. I especially liked that the ending didn't take the easy way out, but instead forced the character to come to terms with her actions. This book was lots of fun to read, and I highly recommned it."
+2616,1,I don't care how this book ends!,"OK, the first 100 pages were great. It was a very gripping story. But when the tension ended, the plot ended. Who cares if Jean wanted to make shoes? Who cares how many stops her plane made, going all over Australia? Who cares what the people looked like, and what they did? If I wanted a book called ""People and Places in Australia,"" I would have checked it out. Meanwhile, back in the outback, there's no plot left. I can't make myself finish it."
+2617,1,Not really a children's film.,"I bought this DVD as a flick some children I babysit could watch. Good thing I watched it before they did. I have to say it's not really a children's movie & it is a bit of a downer as well. The preview makes one think it's a real fantasy film but, alas, it's short on fantasy & humor. NOT a feel good movie, IMHO."
+2618,2,Michael Jackson-Thriller,"I love Michael Jackson and now that he is gone, I just had to have some of his music while it is still so popular! Great buy!"
+2619,2,Not Just for Girls,"I was a little put off by the Barbara K logo, but it had what I was looking for. I wanted an ""upstairs"" screwdriver, one to keep in a drawer for little repairs upstairs without having to go to the well-stocked workshop in my basement. This isn't a girlie-man tool, it's a solid, journeyman screwdriver. Magnetic bits of enough sizes and a light that either shines where you're pointing the tool or detaches. The only thing more I would have liked for this type of tool would have been a ratcheting mechanism."
+2620,1,Feels Cheap - Returned Item,In this case you get what you pay for. Feels cheap. Don't bother unless you don't care about having cheap disposable tools.
+2621,1,recalled boppy,I went to target today to purchase this boppy. Apparently it has been recalled and they took all the other ones off the shelf. I don't know why it has been recalled yet but I wanted to warn the amazon buyers first.
+2622,2,Great Trimmer,PERFECT. Received from vendor in great condition and works great! Very good quality. I thought I needed a new one since my old one runs hot but I probably just should have changed the blade. I would buy this again if necessary.
+2623,2,The Best Seasn yet,I love how Deamon & Sefan do anything to save Elena from death. I can;t get enough of season 3. I say this is the best season yet to come by far. I love this show very much. I don;t regret buying season 3. I can;'t wait till season 4 comes out then i;m going to buy it. i recommend u all to buy season 3 if your a big fan of the show. Its better then Twilight movies. I love Ian & Matt Daivs. U be shocked at the end of season 3 its going to be a cliff hanger.
+2624,2,A high energy Tom Jones Las Vegas live show from 1971.,Tom throws his usual energy and The Voice into a show featuring both greatest hits and other songs. Tom Jones fans are bound to listen to it again and again.
+2625,1,Magic Potty is OK...but,"I found a couple rather important flaws in the design of this Magic Potty. It seems like it would be great if your child used it as a stand alone leave-it-on-the-floor potty. The problems I've run into all surround the transitional uses. First, the seat slides all over the toilet!! It's rather dangerous and I have to be right there with my very independent daughter to make sure it doesn't slip off the toilet while she tries to get on - which also brings me to the next point. The step stool is WAY too short and the cover doesn't always close securely, which leads to an unsteady step for my child to step onto. We bought this when my daughter was 18 mos. old, she is tall for her age. She is 2 now and this thing is still not tall enough for her to comfortably slide onto the toilet - and forget about reaching the sink to wash her hands!! I am currently looking at other options...I'm sure this would have been great to use just as a floor model, though."
+2626,2,Good quality disc,"I have loved this movie since i was a kid (25 now). It reminds me of Santa Claus is coming to town but it's just Easter now. Anyways, the bunny has fuzzy ears on the case and I thought that was a cute touch. Anyways, good buy for a classic."
+2627,2,A fun challenge,"This video combined two forms of exercise I love. The stability ball and pilates. The routine takes pilates off the floor and challenges your core muscles to remain stable on the ball. I fell off my ball the first five tries. The moves look simple, but require focus and strength to execute. I'm a huge fan. This is the video that redeemed by Core Secrets ball (Don't bother with Core Secrets. Their exercises can be found on any library ball workout video.)"
+2628,2,Classic text on logic,"I'm so old that... I am buying my old college textbooks that got thrown out somwhere along the way. This is one, and it is a classic. This actually was not the text I used in college but rather a extra assignment proposed by a professor. Brilliant in composition, this covers classical logic in a way that is not to be repeated. Sadly out of print for many years it is of coarse available on Amazon."
+2629,2,"Good quality, plain shape","The quality of this driftwood is great, it's heavy self sinking malaysian wood which is really nice. The only thing I am disatisfied with is the shape. While it is a natural piece, it has no shape at all, it is a flat stick shape. It is long though, and a couple of inches thick, it just has no design to it. I leaned it up against the wall of the tank, and actually looks pretty good and my fish like it (needed to lower the pH and a few pieces of driftwood are suposed to help) also my pleco needs it for minerals I guess. Looks great with live plants. Overall OK for the price."
+2630,2,Great for catching STINKBUGS!,"I have had a Deluxe Gopher for years -- don't remember how or when I got it but I have had none of the problems some reviewers relate. I never fold mine so maybe that's part of my success, and have had no problems with the suction cups.This tool is now used exclusively for picking stinkbugs off of the ceiling, windows, walls, etc., and transporting them to their final resting place: the nearest toilet.For really heavy visitations, our handheld Oreck vacuum cleaner is more efficient, but otherwise the Gopher gets the bug."
+2631,2,A Winner Again,"Lee Child never disapoints. Jack Reacher again comes through with all the grit and strength he has shown in all his other novels. I have come to find even though he has a Rambo style about him, he works with a good investigative mind. I sincerly recommend this book. I have now read all of them and there is not one I wouldn't highly applaud."
+2632,1,If I could give it 0 I would,"This product worked for 3 days and then it died. It could be 8 degrees outside and Oscar is out with a beach chair. I bring it inside and it still reads 69 outside but 65 inside. I follow the support email I got after 3 weeks of waiting for a reply and still it does not work properly. Save yourself the aggravation and don't buy LaCrosse Products. If you want to throw your money away, I'd rather you give it to charity, a much more worth cause than this junk."
+2633,2,Great Glue,Great glue. I use to glue wood crafts that has been stained different colors. Holds great drys clear. Wood glue sometimes would not hold after the wood was stained.GOOD STUFF!
+2634,2,Great product and great customer service,"This cover works really well, much better than a cheaper version we bought previously. The side straps and ""sta-put"" straps are key. We have a 90lb dog that likes to go back and forth on the back seat to check out the view on both sides of the car and I have leather seats and the cover still stays in place. Also, the cover washes well and line dries quickly.The customer service is great! About 5 months after I bought this cover one of the head rest straps broke. I emailed Solvit's customer service and a day later I had a tracking number for a replacement...and two days later I had a new cover!"
+2635,1,Horrible bottles.,"These bottles are terrible! They create so much air in the bottle, which translates into gas in your baby. Not a good thing. I'd definitely pass on these bottles if you are thinking of getting them."
+2636,1,Not for me,"I read a lot of the reviews here before buying this. So, I knew there could be problems if you live in a larger area with a lot of stations. But, this thing worked terrible for me, when I first tried it yesterday. The few stations I found that would work, would work intermittently. It would sound fine, then as it went out of stereo, for whatever reason, it wouldn't.Also, read and knew about changing it to international mode, as described here. That was an exercise in frustration. Perhaps I'm missing something? When I hold down Preset, and it goes from 1, to XL, then to US, nothing happens when I hit + or -.I'm sending this thing back, and getting a cassette adapter for my MP3 player.Wish I'd known more at the time, as both my cars have cassette players"
+2637,2,Very Good Camera,With this camera u can take 5-60 second mpeg videos but at a pretty good quality. With a photo printer ive been able to make excellent 8x10's also using the software that comes with the camera. (Arcsoft Photo Studio v2.0) The only real downside to this camera is the quite slow recording speed using memory stick. But if your willing to spend more towards a speed memory stick you will be very happy with this camera. It also has a very high speed just using plain old floppy discs. This camera has a load of great features and is very good overall
+2638,2,Small and Brilliant,"You will never regret buying this. It run at only 55 watts when the water temperature goes below 35 F and turns itself off when the water temperature gets up to 40 F. Effective, effecient and with a great warrantee."
+2639,2,One of Best Books I Ever Read!!!!!,One of the most compelling books of all time in my opinion. Great for the kids and the adults too. I highly recommend this book to everyone. To sum up this book I belive that this s one of the best books I have ever read in my life. 5 stars!!!!
+2640,2,IGGY POP SAVED MY SOUL!,"This album is a snarling, sneering, ageless fist of defiant, punk rock poetry.In this time of glossy, flossed, supermodel, shrink wrapped,over produced shallow pop, ""BEAT 'EM UP"" supplies a much needed kick in the gut.Iggy Pop has made a album that truly needed to be made. Viva La Iggy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
+2641,1,Too scary for children...,"This book should come with a warning label -- may be too scary for children. The graphic information about shark attacks is just too much for children under 10, unless you want to encourage nightmares and fear of the water. Parents -- carefully preview this book before presenting it to your children. Even though it is very appealing for the young, it may be too much information for the targeted age group."
+2642,2,STILL RUST-FREE AFTER A YEAR!,"I have owned this can opener for over a year now and it is still rust-free. I generally wash it by hand after use and dry, but sometimes put in the dishwasher and no problem. Highly recommend. It's good to know you have a reliable manual can opener in the event of a power outage also."
+2643,1,Roberts Rules in Plain English,"The book is a decent primer and is certainly more readable than Robert's original book. Of course the original and all of its editions remain an example of very incomprehensible and convoluted language even for its era. However, I have to handle large meetings of very strong-willed, intelligent people, so I found the ""Plain English"" book not very useful. I need to know the details and complexities of handling important meetings so that I make the right decisions. I will stick with the more sophisticated texts."
+2644,1,Don't Buy!,"At first this was a really good card. Lots of memory for your money. But than randomly in the middle of shooting; my camera would say there was an error with the card and all my photos would be gone. It just recently happened while I was at a wedding, it deleted ALL of the pictures that I had taken. I'm just grateful that I wasn'tthe profesional photographer for the wedding when this happened. I would recomend getting another brand like SanDisc or Lexar, names you can trust."
+2645,2,"Pretty good, but pricey","Well, there's isn't much to these. They're thermally insulated, but really, there isn't enough liquid in an espresso shot to stay warm and you drink it too fast anyway. I also have the large Bodum mugs for coffee and tea and those are great.There are two reasons why I didn't give them 5 stars.1. They're very expensive2. There are sometimes imperfections in the glass and the hole at the bottom takes away from the visual appeal.That being set, I am planning on buying more!"
+2646,1,PAINFUL to listen to,The reviewer that thought this album rocked must have had a massive coronary when he listened to Kix' other albums. Outside of 9-1-1 this album is garbage. It bears almost no resemblance to the terrific albums that came before it. If you're looking for an awesome rock band (I've always thought they would be a great opening act for AC/DC) you've found one but not on this record. Buy anything else from Kix and you'll be happy.
+2647,1,Very Limited Application,"I thought I would really like this tape, but find I hardly ever use it. For general use, a conventional metal tape measure works better and faster, as you can often work one-handed and there are things you simply can't do with the Flatback. The Flatback tape ALWAYS requires two hands to use, and I don't need the write-on capability. The single thing the Flatback does best is measure around curves. In response to the reviewers that wrote about accuracy, for most purposes the absolute accuracy of a tape doesn't matter - what does matter is using the same tape for measuring that you do for, say, cutting. When I need real precision I reach for a steel rule anyway. You can also compare tapes and rules so you know the error margins within which you are working."
+2648,2,Great for dogs nails,This works MUCH better than the Dremel made for pets. I bought that one first and had to return it because it was completely ineffective and didn't work properly. This one has been great and the dogs are surprisingly calm while I use it.
+2649,2,Great except....,Notice that one speaker has no grill over it. Not a good idea. Yes it will get broken somehow. Great sounding speaker. Top quality.
+2650,2,"My children love it, but complain it is not up to date.","This junior dictionary is ideal for 8 to 12 years old kids, ithas everything they need at that age. The dictionary is built in sucha colorfull way that is easy for them to find the words and their different meanings with examples, homographs, homophones, idioms and inflected forms. Pronunciation keys are presented at the botton of every right hand page. A new edition is required to update the new countries and world map. The price is a real bargain."
+2651,2,JACK NEVER CEASES TO AMAZE!,Jack and friends have put together a fine mix of songs - from instrumental funk to country blues ballad. He's better than ever and the muscianship is outstanding!
+2652,2,Timeless classic,"When Thomas Aquinas was 18 years old and a young monk, he defied Church authority and studied Aristotle.He later incorporated some of Aristotle's views into his Summa Theologica, the humbly self-proclaimed ""book for beginners"". Actually, the Summa was a ground--breaking discussion of conficting views on many doctrines of faith.My Way of Life is an updated, summarized translation of the Summa. It is translated and summarized beautifully, with sentences such as these: ""Heaven begins in the meanest street, in the vilest house, when God's grace enters the soul of a man living there.""The very first sentence of MWOL will grab you. This definitely is not a book you will read all at one sitting. It makes a nice bedside devotional book."
+2653,1,To Many Glitches,"Do not get this. The gameplay is terrible, the graphics are ok but, most of the enemies are blacked out siliouttes. This game is ungodly hard and frusturating. You get what its worth ..."
+2654,1,Horrible,"This stuff was worthless, we covered our daughter (Seriously COVERED) for 4th of july fireworks. Firewors where about 45 minutes long. She has so many bites we are taking her to the doctor tomorrow because here eyes and ankles have swollen."
+2655,1,over rated guide,"This guide is more of the same. Basically tells you about the colleges you already know have good reputations-- ivys, and the ones just below them. Not helpful for kids who want to follow a non-liberal arts path. Not an in depth book, more just a glossary of colleges and universities. Big disappointment"
+2656,1,"Dumbed down Sci-Fi, Easily Digestable by the Masses","This movie was predictable, boring and technically flawed.The short story this movie is based on was written by the same person who wrote the story used in the movie Bladerunner. And yes, the basic premise is fascinating, too bad the movie couldn't build upon this base premise in a meaningful or interesting way. Instead they dove head first into the world of shock and cheese.However, unlike Bladerunner, this movie came off as a typical piece of formulaic hollywood dribble. Shame on the screenplay writer and director for this cinematic atrocity.Quite honestly, the positive critical reviews this movie received still, to this day, puzzle me.It is really a shame, because there was a ton of potential here, not to mention money spent to end up with such a flash-in-the-pan stinker.If you want a GREAT futuristic thinker, then check out Vanilla Sky."

+2658,1,I found this book to be very negative.,I have BPD and did not find this book to be helpful. It was extremely negative. The persons suffering with this disorder were portrayed as manipulative and very difficult. These people caused so much pain and suffering for others. I felt horrible after seeing myself described this way. There is a continium of severity of symptoms. We are not all like the patients portrayed in the book. I was very disturbed by the bleak outlook on the possibility of recovery. My psychiatrist and I discussed the book and my reaction. He said that other patients had similar reactions.
+2659,1,Not Interested,My dogs love to chase pop bottles so I thought they would love these so much I ordered one for each of them. They don't even look at them. One figured out how to get the treats out but still isn't interested.
+2660,1,Did anyone actually finish this one???,"I was shocked and dismayed. The endless drivel of unimportant details never congeals, much less culminates! Sorry to say, I had to put this book away after about two thirds complete. Too bad, Anne might have done the same and saved us all some time. Her usual loving, lavish attention to detail takes on a laborious note with this read. There never seemed to be much of a point, nothing to grip the reader. The plot weakened to the point where I had to put this away, lest I be jaded for more of her work to come. Just my opinion, and I haven't yet made it to the end (after almost two years!). I look forward to more of Anne Rice, her style I have found to be exquisite in detail, her characters to be deep, complex, and engaging. Unfortunately this novel lacks much of what I have enjoyed to date of her writing."
+2661,1,my item is damaged!,Hi i dont have a problem with th seller or the movie its great! its just that the case is cracked at the top on both sides and bent at the bottom can i get another one?

+2663,2,Stand along side of St. Francis on his spiritual journey,"St. Francis is almost untouchable as a saint. His miracles, his link to the common person and his love of animals (all God's creatures) makes him a hugely popular and well-loved saint. This book allowed me to get beyond all the hype and other worldliness of St. Francis. It took me to his heart and let me feel what he felt as his spiritual journey evolved. His love for God and the world was huge.I now know that St. Francis is most like us, the most human of all the saints. He lived beyond the average but he loved the simpleness and ugliness of life. This book does not ram religion down your throat and it does not put St. Francis on a pedestal that is unreachable. It puts his heart and mind in focus and attempts to give the reader a view of Francis as a friend might see him today.Wonderfully rich and full of spirituality. You will feel closer to the saint no matter what other books you have read on his life."
+2664,1,Worst book I've ever read,This is by far the worst book I have ever read. I was looking for a good read for my Thanksgiving break when I came across this title in Essence Magazine's top ten Fictional paperbacks.I kept hoping it would get better but it never did. The writing was very poor and the plot line was predictable. I could not connect with any of the characters and did not care what happend to them. Save your (...)4 dollars and pass (...)

+2668,1,Not worth the money; test questions are way too easy.,"The questions on the disks, supposed to be 'real' exam question do not at all reflect the level of the actual test. You are left with a false feeling of confidence. Also, the tutorials are marginal at best... Only the clear explanations of the correct answers make this a two star review."

+2670,2,"Sharp LC-26D4U AQUOS 26"" Flat Panel LCD HDTV","I purchased this flat-panel unit for my bedroom as I did not want an oversized tv here and this was the only small HD TV that accepted a cable card. Although there is a downside to cable cards, I was not interersted in two-way communication for a bedroom tv and it saved the $12.95 monthly fee for a cable box from Comcast. The picture quality is excellent and I have no complaints about this product."
+2671,2,Go Out And Get This Now!!!,"Yo, this is no doubt a must purchase for any conscious RBG Warrior, them others cant and wont feel it... F%%k Em!!"
+2672,1,Typical right-wing subterfuge...,Don't waste your time on this dribble. It's not even slightly accurate and lacks any hint of wit.
+2673,2,work great,We are happy with the Transformer it powered our 220volt chair with no problem. It worked for us in Japan
+2674,2,A good compilation of the Everlys in the 80's,"This CD contains (only) 11 songs from two albums made in 1984 and 1986. The title track is ""On the wings of a nightingale"", a wonderful, wonderful song written by Paul McCartney (and which was a hit for the Everlys) which is worth buying the whole album. There are two Dylan covers, ""Abandoned Love"" and ""Lay Lady Lay"", and also a Dire Straits cover, ""Why Worry"", which suits well to the brothers' voices. Most of the songs are quite enjoyable. One very strange thing : this album is in mono."
+2675,1,UGH!!! Worst Product Ever,"Screen protectors don't stick, games case bulky and uncomfortable. Worst buy ever. The first sentence is what I wrote in my return claim, this is horrible, flimsy and the worst quality one could ever expect to receive in an item. The only thing that works is the stylus and honestly you can get that anywhere.Beware: DO NOT BUY!"
+2676,2,If you like down tempo-electro...,"In a very unusual move for me, I bought this CD on the strength of one track, being the lovely Gai Soleil. This track exhibits the moody, gentle, watery, and slightly spacey effects that dominate the whole album, so I was neither surprised nor disappointed when I finally bought the album. The album is definitely a down-tempo piece, so if you like something that rocks along, it ain’t this. However, a number of the pieces develop some quite insistent beats that vary from drum and bass inspired to an almost funky drive (such as Gai Soleil). In the time that I have had the album I find myself liking it more and more and I look forward to listening to it when down-tempo is the only tempo I am after."
+2677,2,Awesome,Shania really hit me hard when she sang From This Moment. That song has a lot in common when she lost both her parnts and I lost one of mine. GoD BLESS HER FOR THIS SONG!
+2678,2,Fascinating,"This book is a fascinating description of life in times in the Glades, Florida Pioneers and a life forgotten. It will move you, awe you, intrigue you and you will come away with a sense of admiration for the people of the Everglades whether white or black or Indian. It was not an easy life but it was a life full of wildness and freedom. This book provides a rare glimpse into the past and the Florida of yesterday. Well done."
+2679,1,Every Picture tells a story...,I agree without pictures it is very hard to visualize exactly how do to do the lessons that are presented. Someone should revise it an do it justice by adding pictures to it to make it more understandable.
+2680,1,Waste of money,"We bought 3 pair of these for our Bichon Frise pups to wear when we take them for their nightly walk. They are fine for snow, but not for wet, dirty pavement. Within a week of walking on the pavement every night there were holes in the toes where the fabric (including the lining) had worn through.I recycled the velcro strips from these boots as fasteners for 12 fleece boots that took about an hour to make. The fleece booties are intact after 3 weeks of daily walks."
+2681,1,Drain Boards are no longer made of the quality Rubbermaid material as formerly used,"I am trying to buy a Drain Board that drains water from the short side. The product that I recently purchased: Rubbermaid 1182MABISQU Basic Drain Boards is NOT RUBBERAMID, the ""new"", product is, much thinner, made of harder plastic and quite flimsy and inferior to what Rubbermaid used to produce; I know the aforementioned to be true because recently I found Rubbermaid Drain Board that was purchased around 1993, it is RUBBERMAID. Could someone direct us as to how we could contact Rubbermaid? I contacted Rubbermaid in the past but did not receive a response. The marketing people at Rubbermaid are missing a whole marketing niche of people who need a large Drain Board that drains water from the short side."
+2682,2,"""Gonna Gut you like a fish...... Blondie!""",This movie was great! Drew Barrymore is the best character in this film. But it was sad when she was gutted and hung from a tree. This movie was a real hit in 96' and I still recammend the 5 star horror classic movie of the year!
+2683,1,Major Inacuracies,"This book was written during the VS.NET beta 2 timeframe, and there are several major inaccuracies and some outdated content. This book was a disappointment."
+2684,1,35 Year Old White Person-review in June 2002.,"I read this book because it was on the College Board reading list. I thought it would be a good read. However, the author gives a message brought from the soul of a hateful, bitter old man - completely without hope. The argument could be made that this frame of mind is justifiable, given the hate and discrimination seen by Southern black men. However, I've found the exact same behavior in old Southern White men. Too bad Mr. Ellison doesn't rise above the hateful messages in his book. He leaves us feeling like he is the black-equivalent of an elderly white racist skinhead.Mr. Ellison does have some terrific ways of describing things - a wonderful gift of making him see things in your mind.I know there is more uplifting literature by black men out there - and to write that does not mean that the author has succumed to Uncle Tom-ism."
+2685,2,Handy for all headphones,"These are handy for all sorts of headphones, not just for the earbuds that will store in the holes. They are made of softer, more flexible material than the Sumajin Smartwraps and seem a bit more secure. I have several sets of headphones which offer varying degrees of sound isolation, and so I have equipped them all with these handy little reels. Not a big deal, but it does make controlling the extra cord length simple."
+2686,2,Fun movie for the family,"This is a heartwarming film with plenty of comedy. The scenes in Disneyland were the reason I made the purchase. Disney fans will have fun not only seeing the park from 1962 but also picking out the areas where the film makers ""rearrange"" the park."
+2687,2,For theremin fans,"For theremin fans and the rest of us too. It is different, yet mainstream. Great for background music and a conversation piece ta-boot."
+2688,1,Annoying Caller ID Problem and Disappointing Quality,"We bought the KX-TG5210M and the optional extra handset (KX-TGA520M) in Dec. 2004. The display on the option handset quit working in Jan. 2005. Like the other reviewer said, a phone that doesn't work is worthless. In addition, after answering a call on one of the handsets, the other handset (the one I didn't answer) shows a missed call even though I just answered it. This is annoying because you can't keep track of calls you missed because some of the calls shown as missed were actually answered."
+2689,2,"i have a lot these songs already, but.....................................","i bought this on sale at estba uyba gambling TALK TALK would be in stereo.it was! quick breakdown: mono/ 1,2,7,8,13,16. stereo/3,4,5,6,9,10,11,12,14,15.trk 6: PSYCHOTIC REACTION is the FAKE STEREO version that's been around for decades. I LOVE YOU by PEOPLE is mono but is panned mostly to the left channel, should be centered. SURFIN' BIRD reminds me so much of the RAMONES.i'm glad to have it in collection now. ARE YOU A BOY OR ARE YOU A GIRL is excellent quality. the only other cd i have of the song was mastered from noisy vinyl. all together ain't bad!"
+2690,1,Elton John's Christmas Party,"Love the song ""Step Into Christmas"" and that is why I bought this. However, it is mainly hard rock - not traditional Christmas songs - and I got it initially because of the song by Elton John and it was one of Starbucks. However, not what I would normally by. Gave it to someone who loves Hard Rock and was happily received."
+2691,2,Great Kit - Just needs more products,"This kit was great! The cookbook was very helpful and had great sushi ideas. The items were high quality, I just wish there were more of them. I would recommend it for all who love sushi."
+2692,1,Worked great for 6 months,"We bought three of these drives over a period of several months. Not one of them lasted more than 6 months. The failures all started the same: The computer would not recognize the drive, then it would, then it wouldn't, until one day it finally stopped recognizing it completely. Rather than return the drives, I installed them in an old computer we are using as a server. Two of the drives had to be reformatted, and only one still had all the files on it. So it appears the problem is with the drive enclosures and not the drives themselves. My recommendation? Don't put anything on one of these drives that you can't afford to lose."
+2693,1,So Horrible,"Like many of the new pop punk rock bands, Good Charlotte follows suit in giving rock n roll a bad name. All the hits on this CD are absolute garbage that appeal to people who think that they, and no on else, are living in an unfair world. The guitar and rhythm section have zero talent and play the same chord over and over again. The singer sounds like he has a clothes hanger on his nose. Good Charlotte has no originality or talent and shows the real need for exposure of actual talent."
+2694,2,Beat the LOADING PROBLEM!,"There seems to be a lot of people having problem with the loading saved games. To overcome this problem you have to avoid overwriting saved games. Instead you have to save a new game every time. Loading one of these files which hasn't been overwritten is not a problem. So simply save new games and delete the old ones, don't overwrite.Defiantly in my top five favorite games."
+2695,1,Not honourable--A pity,"The quality of ""music"" is simply poor and monotonous. I am embarrassed that my seven year old niece takes pleasure in listening to it. But I guess that's the type of market Hewitt attracts. Perhaps a guest shot on Bananas in Pajamas will give her the right career move."
+2696,1,Difficult to follow,"I had to order this book for my college philosophy course and I must say, out of the 3 years i've been in college, this has been my least favorite book. It is extremely hard to understand and follow. However, if you're looking for ways to fall asleep at night, then I definitely recomind this!"
+2697,1,horrible WASTE OF MONEY,This product MELTED in my toaster oven & RUINED my brand new toaster oven. I wish I had never bought it.
+2698,1,Not What E-40 Normally Does,"This Album Is not what I call a album First 4 trackz are the tightest with the tightest beats. Best track on here is ""I practice Looking Hard"" probably one of the best trackz he eva made in his whole career I love that song but otha than that ""Captain save a hoe"" and ""Mail Man"" are a discrace. He shouldnt have even made this cd until he got more trackz"
+2699,1,Product not as described,"I own another, larger WowPad with which I have been quite happy. Needing a new mousepad for work, I decided upon the slightly smaller version being sold here. To me, the phrase ""8.5 inch diameter"" along with the item picture implied this was a circular mousepad. It was not. The product I received was rectangular and roughly the size of a traditional mousepad. Also, I assumed the tracking surface would have a pattern similar to the photo. Instead, I received a mousepad with an image of Van Gogh's Starry Night - not exactly the image I was hoping to convey next to my multi-monitor setup.Operationally, this product works fine with my Razor DeathAdder mouse, but I was disappointed that the item's shape and surface image were far from how the product was described."
+2700,2,Perfect size truck for play mats and Thomas or Plan City train sets.,"A perfect size logging truck for any Thomas train set or Plan Toys Plan City play mat. We use it for our Sevi Village Train set. The elastic can also hold small cars onto the truck bed. The logs are fun to unload and work well with other construction vehicles meant for Thomas size train sets. Cute design, nice rubber wheels. My only gripe is that the hitching post for the truck bed is not long enough to stay attached to the truck cab. On turns, or even picking them up gently they become separated too easily which is very frustrating for my 3 year old. Plan Toys: please make the hitching post on this truck longer!"
+2701,2,Cheap Great Factory Replacement,"I purchased this for my blown out Jeep Wrangler factory subwoofer. After light modifying to get it to fit into the stock position, I can not believe the sound difference for $15, It is by far the best money I have ever spent on my vehicle."
+2702,2,It seemed like a pretty good movie!,"It seemed like a pretty good movie, but watching it on my desktop wasn't very pleasurable. I missed some audio and my screen is too small. I think WIFI to a large flatscreen is the only way to watch these movies."
+2703,2,Blindside when they first began.,This cd is fun to listen to because it just bleeds raw emotion. This album is a good start for a band who went on to release some of the best music in modern rock!!
+2704,1,"Great Special Effects, Not So Great Story","The special effects in this latest offering to sci-fi fans are certainly up to snuff, and the artwork is also remarkable in this big screen adaptation of the popular computer game and books. Being a fan of the Wing Commander series of books however, I was more than a little disappointed that so little effort was made to stick to the established story lines. Granted it was interesting to see young Christopher Blair's first deployment (seeing as he's one of the great heroes of the whole story), but it was ruined by the whole Pilgrim angle on the story line. In addition, screwing up the character of James Taggart (aka 'Paladin') did nothing to aid the progress of the plot. All in all, not to bad for those not already familiar with the established story line, but a lukewarm offering to fans of the game and the books."
+2705,1,Parts included have changed.,"Well, a simple install got complicated when between the separate install kit and the package here, I still didn't have all the parts needed. I even bought a 2nd install kit locally and was still without all the needed parts. (Sidebar: THe first install kit came with a VHS tape for install, useless in today's world for most of us, and the second one had NO install video of any type.)After a day of runaround from Honeywell, the item was returned to Amazon. It appears Honeywell no longer includes the sail switch in the kit, even though it's listed in the materials list and is essential to have a switch (or equivalent switching device) to make this work! It's now sold separately. Very disappointed in Honeywell."
+2706,2,Great Teaching,"Bruce & Mary do a great job explaining all facets of the golf game. I watched the video three times and picked up more good tips each time. The segments on conditioning and choosing equipment are unusual for golf instructional videos and were very well thought out. I recommend this tape to anyone who wants to take a few strokes off their game, no matter where they started."
+2707,2,so real!,i found this book by chance and started reading it. it was very emotional for me- i even threw it across the room. it scared me because i understood. this is a very accurate depiction of what it feels like to be a mental patient and have it tear ur life apart! i know because i have just been diagnosed w/ schizoaffective bipolar disorder...it is so scary. i'm glad this can share that feeling to others
+2708,1,The worst attempt at an educational book I have ever seen!,"The author of this book obvously has a knowledge of photography, but assumes that the readers have a stong background as well. There are many pathetic attempts at humor. The actual writing and wording is plain confusing. To put it in short, this book is a piece of ( )... aka, a pur waste of money!"
+2709,1,Stipulations and false presentation.,The comments made by the publishers and others are based on stipulations and ignorance. Islam has been presented the way they want to present. Their views are based on deep seated prejudices and hate for Islam and its messenger prophet Mohammed. They try to twist the faith of Islam the way Christianity faith has been twisted by the pope and other bible authors. They have been trying to discredit Islam because they see a great value in Islamic faith. The proof is in the statics that three out of four who read Quran accept Islam.Dr. Saleem Ahmed
+2710,2,Notorious,"Sick movie, especially if you are a Biggy fan. Actors do a great job of dipicting the characters they play, except for Puffy."
+2711,1,Man did I waste my money...,"I brought this based on the fact that all the reviews listed were raving about it. BIG mistake! I found it difficult to find any humour at all, the movies sampled were poor video quality, and I found the narration difficult to relate to what I was looking at, although if I could be bothered to watch it a second time I may get the gist of it. But I am painting my house and would rather sit and watch that dry.I find humour in most things, in fact looking at my DVD collection now I see Simpsons, Bad Santa, The Castle, Shaun of the Dead, Reefer Madness, Kenny Everett, Mr Jolly Lives Next Door, Sledge Hammer, Curb Your Enthusiasm, so I have a pretty varied comedy taste. The only laugh I got out of this movie was at myself for having a Homer Simpson impulse buying moment after reading the reviews."
+2712,2,The perfect book to climb the corporate ladder,I was given the title of this book at a seminar I attended. This was the best investment for my career. No school can teach you how to play the game the way this book does. I love the way Mr. Coleman puts the language of the book in very simple terms. If you are intersted in getting ahead in your company follow the rules that Mr. Coleman lays out and you will be in management/upper management in know time.
+2713,1,A waste....,"This series began with alot of mystery and promise, but by book 5 it was evident that King had lost his way. I eagerly waited for this book - Song of Susannah was such a waste of time, but I waded through it anyway just so I could be ready for the final book.As I read through the book I began to have a feeling of trepidation. How many of you remember reading The Wolves of the Calla and realizing that, with only 20 or so pages left, the book was almost over and nothing had really been accomplished? Thats how I felt once Major Characters began dying in this book.And this book had a horrible finish.Do not read this book. Instead, write your own ending. How do you want Roland to come out of this adventure? The ending King gives is awful. How awful? It's like playing a video game and, when you beat it, a message comes up and says, ""Now try it again on a harder level.""Tripe. Hackneyed. Drivel. Pulp."
+2714,2,Like but not love,"After using this product in a national lodging chain, I decided to purchase this head for my home shower. After installing the head, it was not exactly as I remembered it. On the full spray pattern, which is relatively wide, there appears to be an interior void which requires me to dance around to make sure I get full coverage of the water to rinse the soap off. I would prefer a denser spray pattern on the wide angle spray setting."
+2715,2,"Black & Decker 18-Volt Cordless Pole Chain Saw, 8-Inch Bar #NPP2018",Great tool for homeowner that doesn't need a profrssional pole saw. Worth more than the price.
+2716,1,Songs are shortened,"This is a cheaply recorded compilation from Mardi Gras Records. The music is almost uniformly excellent. The second song, Do You Know What it Means to Miss New Orleans, is also featured in the ninth song, a medley. My main complaint is the editing. The first song (42 seconds long) is merely the end of a longer song and some of the other songs, although essentially complete, start or end too abruptly as though to hide the fact that some of the songs were recorded live. There are no liner notes."
+2717,1,Only wish they had a negative star rating... that bad,"We were so upset at the awful language in this movie. The story line was so predictable and the vocabulary was that of a bunch of 16 year old boys that it was just shameful. We did not even finish the movie. I only wish they had a rating of negative stars. We would have rated it negative 5. So bad it is going in the trash, where it belongs."
+2718,2,So much easier and safer than tweezers!,I love this product! It is safer than tweezer since it does not squeeze the ticks body. The ticks are absolutely awful this year and I have unfortunately had to use this several times on my dog. Works great!
+2719,2,Jimmy Hansen's Heaven,"This was a great movie! Good for all ages, especially for anyone who just experienced a loss of a loved one. I showed this in my Sunday School class and there was hardly a dry eye in the bunch. May not be an actual description of what heaven is like, but I really hope it's like that!"
+2720,2,Shockingly Informative Truth,"I always had a gut feeling that things weren't as they seemed. This information really opened my eyes to some serious health concerns, and revealed to me ""why"" our bodies have become petri dishes for disease, because of what we EAT, and also because of the things we have blindly aquiesed to, thinking, ""Our Government wouldn't lie to us"". Boy! Was I wrong in that thinking!!!!I am blessed to have gotten this information, and recommend this DVD to EVERY person..for thir own sake, and their children, and their children's children. We MUST start somewhere."
+2721,2,A great book for discussion with young children.,"You have to guess who is making the mess on each page by lifting the flap, then you have to find their missing article from the mess on the page. This is a great book for discussion and observation skills. Suitable for children 3-6 years, and early readers 6+. Includes lots of repetition"
+2722,1,Disappointed,"I was wanting to learn fingerstyle guitar picking of gospel songs, but I cannot read music. I was interested in learning Farther Along and I saw the DVD included this song. My disappointment is that a small instructional booklet came with the DVD but I found it hard to understand. Also, there were only 6 songs and the chords were not listed on the sheet music. As stated previously, I cannot read music. The DVD does not give very detailed instructions...very limited and most of the DVD concerns how Mr. Baker got into this style of music, which is not what I was interested in at all. In addition, there are no words of the song to go along with sheet notes if you could get someone to help interpret. SO DISAPPOINTED!!!"
+2723,1,Mediocre,I can only imagine that if you are looking to buy this book it is because it's required for some sort of class you're taking in high school or college. It is poorly written and I wouldn't put too much thought into his interpretations.
+2724,1,"it doesn't have ""The Cat in the Hat"" or ""Green Eggs and Ham""","I did not buy this book, because it did not have the two Seuss über-classics named above. It does however contain ""And to Think That I Saw It on Mulberry Street"", ""Horton Hears a Who!"", ""Yertle the Turtle"", ""How the Grinch Stole Christmas!"", ""The Lorax"" and ""The 500 Hats"" (the last of which I never heard).If you are just starting your Seuss collection, I suggest ""Your Favorite Seuss: A Baker's Dozen by the One and Only Dr. Seuss"", available on Amazon for about $10 more. It contains all the above and ""McElligot's Pool"", ""If I Ran the Zoo"", ""Happy Birthday to You!"", ""Dr. Seuss's Sleep Book"", ""The Sneetches"" and ""Oh, the Places You'll Go!"" in addition to the aforementioned über-classics ""The Cat in the Hat"" and ""Green Eggs and Ham"". 13 classic Dr. Seuss stories in all. You can't beat that with a three-handled, moss-covered family credenza!"
+2725,2,Great beginner's sewing machine,"It was pretty easy to figure out with the instruction manual. I think I had trouble with tension and threading the bottom bobbin but once I figured that out it is a piece of cake to use. Honestly, this machine probably has a lot more functions than I would ever need. It seems sturdy and will last for a long time. Overall I am happy about this purchase. I researched a few other machines and this one seemed like the best for the money."
+2726,2,Aluminum Cookware,"This is one gorgeous pot. I grew up and learned to cook in aluminum and, no, I'm not afraid of getting Alzheimer's from it. Aluminum cooks food steadily, makes it harder to burn, cleans well by hand or dishwasher and is reliable and just about indestructible. This Cajun Dutch Oven is beautiful. The inside and outside shine and haven't dulled yet. The company got it to me faster than expected and in good shape. They even emailed me ahead to be sure I inspected it immediately and found it acceptable! Worth more than I paid for it. Gonna buy from these people again."
+2727,2,webster's encyclopedic unabridged dictionary,"the information i abtained before purchancing was very detailed and adequate. the book was marked used, however recieved looking brand new. i was extremely pleased with the condition of the book for being at such a low price. delivery was speedy."
+2728,1,Weak flavored coffee,"Although I love the convenience of this coffee maker, I have been very disappointed by the flavor of the decaf coffee. The coffee brews beautifully, creating an appealing frothy ""crema"" at the top. However, the coffee itself is very bland.I keep hoping that Senseo will introduce a ""bold"" decaf option. My husband, who drinks caffeinated coffee, quite enjoys their ""bold"" coffee pods. In the meanwhile, I circumvent the problem by using two decaf coffee pods, while selecting the one cup option. It concentrates the coffee, which significantly improves the flavor. It bothers me, though, that I'm paying ""twice"" for one cup of coffee.From the reviews, it seems like a lot of people enjoy the decaf coffee, as it is. However, if you enjoy a more intense, bold tasting coffee, you will need to use two pods to get some approximation of a distinct coffee flavor."
+2729,1,Disturbing Westlake,"I love Westlake books. I collect Westlake books. I've even flown to NYC to get the chance to meet Donald E. Westlake. (And it was worth every penny too.) But The Ax really disturbed me. The storyline is creepy. I felt uneasy reading it. For all the enjoyment and laughter Mr. Westlake's writings have provided me, (and if I had a dollar for every timed I've laughed out loud at Dortmunder the cost of the plane trip to NYC would be more than reimbursed --I'm not exaggerating), I cannot recommend this book. Instead I'll say: Buy ALL the Dortmunders. Buy ALL the Parkers (Westlake as Richard Stark.) Hunt down the books by a writer named Tucker Coe (another Westlake pseudonym.) And by all means read Mr. Westlake's Trust Me On This which is as funny a novel as I've ever read. All of these other titles are true gems written by a true master."
+2730,1,S3 poor quality,"I purchased The S3 with the Image stabilization being the primary reason. I own a Casio QV 3000 EX and a Fuji S 7000. The Casio with only 3.3 Megapixels gives better more natural images than the Fuji. The Canon S3 is the poorest of the bunch. The images on the LCD montor and the Viewfinder are dim and almost impossible to see in any kind of light. Canon told me to take out the batteries and the memory card , let it sit for 20 minutes and reinstall-did nothing to improve the condition. They want me to pay to ship it back for repair and I refuse to do that on a new camera. My rating for this camera is no stars.Tom"
+2731,1,Pointless keeping in print,"This book refers to version 4 of the Dragon Naturally Speaking program. The current version is number 9, and is very significantly different from version 4. I don't know why this book is being offered for sale. Do not buy it."
+2732,2,"Love the ring,","I have the ring on my left middle finger as I type this, and I couldn't be more pleased with it. I note that someone wrote about theirs turning color. Silver will tarnish if you do not care for your jewelery. A little polish, and it's bright again! I have a hard time finding rings in my size that look nice, and Silver Insanity has provided me with three so far, all of which are very lovely. I would give the ring more than the 5 stars were I allowed. Perfectly formed Celtic Cross, nice fit, real silver. What more could I ask? Quoth the Raven..."
+2733,1,Read the Product Description,"Looking at the picture of this item, I envisioned a heavy duty feeder like the ones my grandparents used to have; and the price was great... The reality is quite different, but, as I see in the product description, it does say ""copper & acrylic."" The point is, this product is primarily made of plastics. Yes, it does have a copper top, and a strip of copper around the bottom, but the rest is fairly light plastic. This is not necessarily a bad thing, but it's not what I was picturing. I will certainly use this feeder, and I expect it will last awhile, but before I buy any other products online, I'm going to read all the fine print."
+2734,2,Best bathtime purchase!,"I first bathed my baby in the hospital because she was in the Special Care nursery. It was nerve-wracking! She was all wiggly and slippery, and I was afraid I'd drop her and she's swallow water. When I got her home I started using this product, recommended by a research-crazy friend.My daughter is now 6-months old, and smiles and kicks and giggles right through her baths. I don't worry about her slipping around, and the Safer Bather is soft and contoured, not hard plastic like some baby baths.The only bad thing is that sometimes I forget to hang it up right away (when you pick up baby, wrap in towel, then go to get her dry and dressed), and then when I do get around to it I worry it might get mildewy. Sunlight is great for killing off germs, so I'm going to put it out in the sun this weekend and that will fix that.I expect my daughter to be sitting up shortly, but we'll use this until then - highly recommended!"
+2735,2,Great sound,I use these for my front surround speakers as part of a 7.1 system.they sound great and where easy to install.I found out it doesn't pay to go cheap the 1st ones i installed where and they sounded like crap.these where a good balance of quality and price.
+2736,2,"Simple, safe and effective","I'm very happy with this plastic beauty. For the occasional frozen pizza, or messy cheese delivery, this puppy goes the trick. I had an old metal wheel that was so-so and this surpasses it nicely. It's not a Ginsu, but like Dominos, it delivers!"
+2737,2,Truly Classic.,"What a find this DVD is. I had never seen any of these performances before. Frank's two duets with Ella are perfection. Other great duets feature Louis Armstrong, Dinah Shore and Dean Martin. There's insightful commentary by Frank's three children also. The picture and sound are quite good for the age of the source material. This DVD is a must have for all Sinatraphiles."
+2738,1,"If I could have, I would have rated this movie a -5 stars.","Totally unbelievable from the start. The era was supposed tohave been before the first three episodes and yet the robotics weremore advanced and prevalent in this movie than in the former three movies. And what is with their stupid ""roger roger"" response to everything. The movie is superficial and lackluster, with none of the depth and sheer enjoyment of the former three. I had looked forward with great anticipation to seeing it, only to be extremely irritated. I almost walked out of the theatre halfway through it. I will buy this on dvd, when it comes out, because I plan to have all of the series as a collection, and I don't want to be missing part of it. Other than for that reason, I would not buy it."

+2741,1,Great movie ruined by a crushingly disappointing weak ending,"I hated this film. I use the word ""hated"" because I was having such a great time watching it, and then there's this ridiculousy unfortunate ending that does a horrible diservice to the rest of the material. If you're the type of person that gets irked when the flick you're watching winds up having no pay-off whatsoever, avoid this"

+2744,2,feel good music,"OK, so it isn't as sophisticated as the Beatles and there isn't any deep meaning, and the lyrics are pretty corny too, but this album is one hit single after another and is great feel-good music and wonderful nostalgia if you grew up in the 60s. Peter Noone has the perfect pop-bubble gum voice, the arrangements are simple but they work, and isn't the reason we listen to music (at least sometimes anyway) just to feel good? For what it is, it is very very good."

+2747,1,Will never buy Samsung again.,I got this vcr as a gift. It worked fine for maybe two or three movies but then started getting a lot of static in the picture and bad sound quality. I probably called Customer Service about it 5 or 6 times. Each time they gave me different instructions as to how to reset it or clean it to get it to work properly but none of their instructions worked. The only other option was to take it to a repair facility 70 miles away. I decided it wasn't worth it.Roy

+2749,1,Somebody kill me please!,"I have never watched a more boring DVD in my life! I was SOOOO looking forward to this DVD but it is so long & drawn out, most of it is Storm & his wife playing VERY new-agey music. Every monologue needs editing. EG: Storm tells a story of his son racing him up a hill - it went on & on & on with lengthy descriptions of his son gaining on him, running, running, running - I started fast forwarding - the story was still going - fast forward again - still going - it must go for 10 minutes & all it is about is his son's stamina in running up a hill! It is a very self indulgent amaturish video of Storm's rants about, well, everything & I suspect it's real aim is to flog their music. Do not waste your money there are far better, more informative & more interesting DVDs on the raw lifestyle!"
+2750,1,Horrifying,"Let's keep this short and simple. It sucked. George Clooney brought the Batman character to an all-time low. All the cheesy one-liners felt like punches to the face. Obviously a movie that relied too heavily on special effects.To be fair to the actors, the writing and portrayal of everything in this movie didn't give them any room to budge. Batman is NOT a showy character. The lighting in this movie was more so than the Vegas strip and did anybody realize that again there was no bats in the bat cave?I don't even think there's enough money on that credit card Batman takes out to fix the mess this movie ultimately is."
+2751,1,not user friendly,"Received the item, took me a while until I could understand the set-up instructions. The first DVD I put into the slot would not record and apparently got hung up inside when I tried to eject it. Could never get it out."
+2752,2,Offers some relief,"I purchased this product based on other reviews. I would say they were very accurate. The brace reduces, although it does not eliminate the pain. Most of the time, it is fairly comfortable, but when it starts to feel uncomfortable, it doesn't get better, so I just take it off at that point. I do wonder if, once the weather gets hotter, if it will start to feel sweaty, because it isn't made to breathe."

+2755,2,Guilty pleasure but nonetheless entertaining,"This album is a guilty pleasure of mine. It is probably not a great album artistically and even some of the rhymes seemed forced at times, but nonetheless I really like this album. Maybe it's some of the lyrics which make me laugh inside, maybe it's that the sound really gets me going at times, I'm not sure. Re-arranged is definitely one of my favorite tracks and I think it probably has some of the most artistic merit going for it for this whole album. Overall I think this CD is worth the price of admission."
+2756,1,Not very good,"We never really had this printer working well. It was always tricky to get things to print correctly, the printer wells are difficult to access. The printer won't print if any cartridge is empty. Cartridges are not recyclable or refillable. We never had good color reproduction and didn't bother printing photos. The tiny LCD screen is impossible to read. Now, the black won't even print. Scanning is pretty difficult (although it copies relatively easily). We are getting rid of it today and getting a new printer."

+2758,1,Just say no to Hoover,"I previously had a Hoover Savvy but I ran over something which triggered the automatic shut off and it hasn't worked since. It lasted for about a year and a half which I think for $180.00 should have lasted a lot longer. Second time around I bought the less expensive Hoover Empower. Despite the fact that the Savvy only lasted a short while I was happy with it up until then so I figured if I bought the Empower for 99.00 I wouldn't be so upset if it broke down in 1 1/2 years. The Empower has now broken down after 5 months. The bare floor function never worked, as other people have said it shoots everything back at your ankles and now the brush has stopped spinning altogether. When it did work I had to always keep it on turbo or else it would not pick up everything. I feel this loyalty to Hoover but I really need to let go!! I wish I still had my grandma's old Kirby. Ahh the good old days!"

+2762,2,Nobody's Child,I love watching true life movies. I found this movie quite good. As we know that in society today anything can be accomplished when we open up help to those who need it. In this movie there is an mentally abuse child who is very intelligent but has been abused to believing she is incapable of achieving. A strong will and curiousity prevails to societys advantage when given the chance.
+2763,1,Disappointing CD,I have several of the Hearts of Space Collection discs. I was disappointed with this one. It was dull. The music had no energy to it unlike some of the other HoS discs.
+2764,1,Sensationalism,"Actually, I give this book, and the series, no stars. The best that can be said is that if you enjoy science fiction, you could read it in the same sense that you would read Buck Rodgers.If you are looking for a Biblical view of Christian eschatology, this series is helpful in that it informs you of everything that the Bible doesn't say on the topic. If you are looking for something sensational to read without it being accurate, then here is your ""Christian"" Buck Rodgers."
+2765,1,Be forewarned,"I used this once then gave it away. For entertaining, the rings make a nice presentation. But you can easily cut chunks to look appealing. For normal use, know that a thick layer remains in the pineapple shell. Also, plastic handle feels flimsy."
+2766,2,a niche mic,"A great mic though limited-purpose given its coloring of sound. Is excellent for mic'ing an overdriven guitar amp if you're looking for a crunchy, thick late 60's sound. Great for mic-ing percussion if, again you're looking for a crunchy, thick and punchy sound. If you're looking for clarity, definition or crisp balanced response through the whole frequency spectrum, this is not the right mic-try a good condenser mic."
+2767,1,Ultimate Gift,This was such a diversion from the book that I found it very annoying. The book was so much better and did not have all of the sappiness of the movie. I would not recommend this movie to anyone who has read the book.
+2768,2,This little guy is so cute,"This plush is so small, cute and fluffy. His legs are perfect, he stands up so straight on all surfaces. His fur is so soft to the touch and a nice color too. This toy is good for the price. He was just the right size where I didn't feel like I was overcharged. Overall, very satisfied."
+2769,2,BEST DISTRACTOR EVER,"My dog absolutely loves this toy! I do have a few tips for making the treats last longer...I got the gnawhide rawhide rings as well as the cornstarch rings. The cornstarch rings last a lot longer but also don't have the immediate gratification that the rawhide ones do. I stack one of each on either side, this makes the treat last a lot longer and seems very enjoyable for my pup! Also, the cornstarch rings dry out really quickly and then crack on the toy. Keep them sealed in a plastic baggie.Just a side not, my dog is 5 months old and NOT a hugely destructive chewer. I would rank him as a 7 on a scale of 1-10, so this probably isn't the best toy if you have a 10 on your hands."
+2770,2,The Best Cookbook Ever!!,I am a collector of cookbooks and found Savor the Moment to be the best one I have. I must have over 500 books. The recipes are wonderful and the photo's are beautiful. I found this book easy to read and follow. The CD Rom version is beautiful as well.Thank you.
+2771,2,THIS BOOK ROCKS!,"This book is so awesome! But, still, I don't think anyone would leave to get help that they will never get. Back to how awesome this book was. If you liked ""Welcome To dead House"" alot, you will not like this one. It is NOTHING like ""Welcome To Dead House"", so, don't buy it, if you liked Book #1. Also, I liked the names of the charactors. Gretchen, Clark, I've barely ever heard those names, but now I think they're cool names. So, again, THIS BOOK ROCKS!"
+2772,1,Not as good as expected,My toddler is 26 months old and already reads his letters and knows the alphabet. I was hoping to get something entertaining that would now associate the actual phonics of the letter to make it possible for him to start reading and sounding out words. But I was disappointed mainly in the visuals of this tape - it was boring and looks like it may have been done as a low budget - plus the singing was terrible (except for the last song sung by kids). We will continue to watch it but I will not get the following tapes...
+2773,1,disappointed,"im currently 24 wks pregnant w/ my 3rd child & i was so excited when i ordered this DVD that i even payed for 2 day shipping. when i got the DVD i did my 1st workout that night. and while im sure that the workout would greatly benefit me if i kept up w/ it, i just cant bring myself to. Shiva Rea's voice bothers me to no end. she is obviously very well informed, practiced, & knowledgable in yoga, but she just sounds so flakey and spacey. i cant get past it. and the the time spent devoted to kegal exercises is a bit excessive, how many women could possibly need that much help in doing kegals?? the organization on the DVD is great and the massage section is awesome and very cool, but that voice and tone has got to go. the background music is very ""new age"" also, while some people might like that i certainly am not 1 of them."
+2774,1,BAD BOOK! BAD BOOK!,"I could not believe the format and content of this book when I requested it from NU's library. How did it get published? There are so many typos and it was badly written; it's an insult to refer to this material as a book, let alone allow it to represent Black/Latino life. Please attend workshops in creative writing, take courses at your local university, read other literature, something, but don't publish anymore!"
+2775,2,Black and white help,"Though I haven't finished, I have learned what I'm doing right, and what I need to do to become a better photographer. I am primarily digital, I find his writing about darkroom technique informative. It took me back to my days in the darkroom.I recommend this book for those who, like me, love black and white."
+2776,2,Great popcorn machine,"Did quite a bit of research before buying and really happy with the result. The quantity of popcorn produced is good, its super easy to make and clean, and I believe the metal parts will last much longer than the plastic alternatives on most of the other inexpensive models."

+2779,2,For Love,"A touching love story. Intended to present as a wedding gift to my fiancee. Regret still unable to get hold of one after such long search. So sad that it is still out of stock. With my wedding day drawing near, really hope to get hold of one soon."
+2780,1,"Beyond politics, it's just not very good.","It's unfortunate that most of the reviews here seem to come down to either ""I agree with Neil's politics, so it's great"" or ""I disagree with Neil's politics, so it's awful."" Personally, because I agree with the politics, I was thrilled when it came out, and enjoyed listening to it the first few times, thinking ""you tell 'em Neil!"" I've always loved good protest songs--from Bob Dylan, John Lennon, and Phil Ochs to the Clash, Billy Bragg, Tracy Chapman, and Rage Against the Machine, and so was thrilled to see a return to the Neil Young of ""Ohio"" and ""Southern Man.""Subsequent listenings, however, revealed paint-by-numbers riffs and artless lyrics that are closer to what I'd expect to hear from strident, idealistic college students with guitars at political rallies (and, believe me, I've heard more than my share of them). Overall, much as I wanted to love it, I had to admit that it's one of his weakest efforts."
+2781,1,Don't buy this toy.,"Our Jengo Fett Blasters and Holster arrived today. Within five minutes of getting it out of the package, the holsters came unglued. One of the blasters doesn't work - when screwed in, it blasts continuously instead of with a trigger pull. How disappointing!"

+2783,1,"Poor Drawings, Poor Printing, Save Your Money","I bought 16 different Anatomy Drawing books and this is the only one that I actually felt compelled to give away. When the other people say the drawings are faded and sketchy that is an understatement. This is not a good book to learn by and it was not very effective in the design approach. Your much better off with some Dynamic Figure Drawing, Dynamic Hands, Dynamic Wrinkles, Artistic Anatomy, Anatomy for Artists, An Atlas of Anatomy For Artists, etc etc etc. Some of the other books I listed are almost the same price and are 10 times better. Its night and day between this book and the other Anatomy Drawing books."

+2786,2,One word: Katz,"I love Bryson, as well as nearly everything he writes. But his erstwhile hiking companion, klutzy, overweight, out-of-shape, pragmatic Katz, steals the show in this book about a couple of neophytes attempting to hike the spectacular and challenging Appalachian Trail. You'll never look at Little Debbie's treats again without thinking of Bryson, but most of all of Katz.Only reason I didn't give it 5 stars: the last 75 pages could have been scratched. Once the non-dynamic duo left the Trail, I lost interest."
+2787,2,better than any book on the nazis and the occult,"The author presents a convincing case for Hitler being a black magician. This is a better book than the occult reich, by brennan. In this book, Suster shows the numerous links Hitler had with the occult, most notably with black magick. He shows how Hitler used various esoteric techniques to create a magnetic personality and influence the mind of the mob. This book presents some incredible claims, but whoever said that truth is stranger than fiction, knew what he was talking about. Although the occult has a sinister reputation, due more to ignorance than anything else, it shows what power lies in certain facets of its practice. Hitler proves this for all time."
+2788,2,Really Good,The box was in great condition and the discs were not scratched one bit. I kind of wish that they would have kept the picture that was attached to the dvd box when bought but other than that it was good!
+2789,2,The Renaissance of Institutions,This collection of new and classic articles provides a thorough survey to the new institutionalism in Sociology. The introduction is a very broad ranging and exciting survey of recent writings in the social sciences on institutions. The chapters apply the ideas to a wide range of empirical settings from banks to universities. The book is a must have for researchers in organizational theory and management.
+2790,2,jazz classic.,"okay, all you yayhoos out there; want some great late night listening? something to relax and edify? well, put away all your new age cds, shuck old yanni in the trash bin, and pick up miles davis's bitches brew. no law says laid-back music can't be powerful and soulful. so here it is: just such music. miles trumpet displays a calm, beautiful and mysterious tone throughout this masterpiece. unconventional jazz to be sure, but accessible to anyone's ears. the great john mclaughlin adds fantastic touches of guitar to the recording, and other master musicians on board are: wayne shorter, chick corea, dave holland, and jack dejohnette. after you get this album and find out how much you love it (which you certainly will if there is a modicum of sanity about you), be sure to pick up ""in a silent way,"" too. another classic miles album with a very similar vibe to bitches brew. happy listening."

+2793,2,Chicks with Sticks (Knitwise),"At this time, all the summaries and reviews on this page are from the previous two books. Here is the scoop from the inside cover of the hardback (I haven't finished it so I can't truly review it yet)""For Scottie, Amanda, Bella, and Tay, life in Chicago is about seeking shelter. They've found it in their firelit stitch-n-[...] at Joe; in the halls of their quirky private school; in the arms of boyfriends-and always in the comfort of friendship that bonds them together.But now the Chicks are staring down at the end of high school and it's time to contemplate life beyond the protective web of their knitty ensemble. Will the stresses of college applications and service projects, debutante balls and long-distance loves, mean the end of the Chicks? Or can this unlikely foursome bind-off the happy ending that only true friendship can craft?The end is only the beginning for the Chicks, who return with their trademark wit and warmth along with four fabulous new projects."""
+2794,2,Great Heath Ledger movie,This is one of the last movies i've seen of Heath ledger. It was a great movie. Since watching Heath in THE DARK KNIGHT I became a fan and had to watch all his movies. This one is one of my favorites. I had never heard of Ned Kelly so I was also interested in learning more about him and how Heath brought his character to life. Heath was more than an amazing actor. He knew how to bring his characters to life and make them likeable and real. I highly recommend this film even if your not a Heath Ledger fan.
+2795,2,Russian Civil War (White Armies),A very informative book with great illustrations.I highly recommend this book to someone with aninterest in this period.

+2801,2,43 years and still cooking,"I was looking at the copper clad Revere because I wanted to replace my aged 10 inch fry pan. Sadly, I could not find a skillet with a lid so, having read one of the reviews that ""panned"" RevereWare, I indeed purchased Farberware. In the early 1960's RevereWare was about the best available. As I said, my entire set is still in active use after FORTY THREE YEARS. My skillet lost a rivet in the handle and looks pretty bad at this point, so I decided to purchase Farberware because their skillet had a lid. I can't compare the two because RevereWare may now be a bit heavier. If there have been no changes, the Farberware is heavier and of course is not copper clad. (Had I been a bit brighter 43 years ago I never would have requested copper clad bottoms for wedding/shower gifts.) Anyway, for the price and durability I cannot see how anyone can criticize RevereWare. Just get the stainless unless you LOVE to clean pot bottoms!"

This one is not aging well too many things are too bogus to keep the story line going.The scene with the Reaper's Challenge is the only redeeming scene and even that one is slower than most scenes in today's comedies. Only watch if you are a ""Bill and Ted"" Historian."
+2804,1,A book that practises what it preaches: perception is all,"The whole book is very seductive. Look at this company, they understood this principle, they were successful. Look at this other company they didn't understand it, they weren't successful. Except that many of his examples have had time to become contradictions of his original claims. It all reminds me of the answer given by the famous communist when asked why the socialist republics failed at the end of the cold war: ""Marxist theory is correct, but the practice was never carried out in full accordance with it, so it is hardly surprising that they all failed"". I'm sure Ries and Trout ought to seriously consider this as an escape route. A better use of their time might be spent looking at the real reasons why so many of the 'predictions' in this book have ultimately proved to be so appallingly inaccurate."
+2805,2,Depends on what you are using it for,"I am very pleased with this flex keyboard. I use it when I travel and take my laptop. My keyboard is a bit messed up on it and I use this instead. It works great for that. It also rolls up for storage and doesn't take up much space at all.If you are planning to use it as an everyday keyboard however, this would not be for you. The keys are not as responsive as your typical keyboard and so you get some missed letters.All in all I am pleased with my purchase."
+2806,2,McKettrick's Choice,"This book is wonderful! From the first page, you cannot put this story down. The characters have such distinct personalities. Each page is more exciting than the other. This story has every feeling that you can imagine: dominance,love, hate, suspense, fear, and lots of agitation. You will want to read this book all the way through without interruption."
+2807,2,Thumbs up for Alaska!,"I got the CD late last year and I can only recommend buying it! It's melancholic and happy and rocks!I'm from Germany and it's a pity this CD isn't out over here, it's like... exactly what's missing!Have a listen and then go and get it :-)"
+2808,2,LISTEN TO THE MUSIC OF HEAVEN!!,"I heard a lot of people telling about this recording, and I decided I must buy this CD! So I did. I tell you, it is the Music of Heaven! I was so enchanted by the angelic voices. I am an Orthodox Christian, many non-Orthodox have this CD as well. I give it 10+ stars if i could! I HIGHLY recommend this CD to everyone!! I guess the reason that Amazon.com chose not to but all the tracks, to listen to, because they want to hide the hidden enchantment of this CD! ENJOY!!"
+2809,2,Reverance for Life,"This is a remarkable book in so far as it brings a much greater depth to Schweitzer than one might get without it. While Schweitzer has many insightful things to write, how he writes and what he says about himself conveys quite a lot. I think the figure of Albert Schweitzer has become cliched over the decades. Reading how he saw the world is time well spent and shows how shallow cliches can be."
+2810,1,Bait and switch,"Don't waste your money thinking you are getting the original recordings. Most are poorly recorded live performances or re-recordings that don't hold a candle to the original. I have had this with other artists in the past and was sorely disappointed. The phrase ""ripped off"" comes to mind. All of these compilations should say definitively whether or not they are the originals."

A great insight into the mind and purpose of its founder. If you wish to be informed and aware of the evil influence of this devilish order, whose leader is known as the ""Black Pope"" and is the real power behind the ""Vicar of Christ,"" then this is the book for you. I recommend it wholeheartedly!"
+2813,2,Funny!,"After I read Election, I had to read more books by Tom Perrotta. Luckily, he came out with Joe College, and it was wonderful! It was one of the funniest novels I've read in months, and it was bursting with Perrotta's honest writing. Read this book, you won't regret it!"

Perfect Opposites is funny as well as realistic in its portrayal of the ups and downs of intimate relationships. But if you like feel-good, cliche' fairy tales, you might not like this one. It's similar to The Break-Up. Piper Perabo and Martin Henderson are adorable as the lead characters of the film. The rest of the cast is great too."
+2818,2,Looks good.,"It is hard to review this item due to its nature (I will not use it until if there is ever an emergency that would cause me to use/experience it)However, it looks like a good quality product. It is packaged well, for easy storage and travel. Great size to add to an emergency kit. And for the cost of four blankets, if they work in retaining body heat, they are well worth the 5 stars.I did receive the QuikKare brand, but that is a non issue regarding my 5 star rating. Do not review a product and give it a rating based on a Vendor's Service (rather than QuikKare's quality)."
+2819,2,Fun!,"The toy entertains my 4 year old almost more than my toddler! It has two volume settings (plus off switch). It also has a spanish button, so that is kinda fun to play around with. The music is catchy. My toddler likes to tip it over though. It was very easy to put together, no tools required, the legs just snapped on."
+2820,1,Poor quality,"I ordered the purse holder but was dissatisfied when the item I received was not of the quality represented in the photo. The crystal was murky and,pale. Very unlike the similar item I purchased from Stein Mart and misplaced. It was, however, just as expensive, and the crystal fell off before I ever used it. My husband tried gluing it back on - still haven't used it. Probably a garage sale item for a quarter. Don't make the same mistake."
+2821,1,Good for the hard of hearing.,"I have had these for years. I put one next to me at my hearing level. Thus my husband can listen to TV more quietly. For me it is mostly for TV, some music, and occasional movies. It does cut out on some of the old movies -- in the quiet places. There may be better ones out there, but these work for me. Another thing I like is putting them in the kitchen and listening to the news while I am making dinner or doing dishes. It is much clearer then the TV speakers..."
+2822,2,AFFORDABLE IF NOT FIRST RATE,"I eventually had to replace the outside sensor by buying a new one on Amazon. The set which includes this sensor and inside display work well most of the time. However for some inexplicable reason the outside sensor will stop broadcasting and just as mysteriously begin again. It wasn't an expensive set; and when it is working, is all I want. I just wish I could find out what triggers the lack of sensor reading. Except for this unreliability problem from time to time, I love it."
+2823,2,One ex-pats opinion,"As an American living in Sao Paulo, Brazil for the past 6 years, I have had a bit of experience finding the select grains of wheat among the vast chaff of current Brazilian music. Capital Inicials Accoustic Set, Titas accoustic, some Rappa, Gabriel O Pensador etc. This Tribablistas CD is an interesting CD, in that it combines a Paulista (Antunes) with a Carioca (Monte) with a Baiano (Brown) to come up with a really special thirteen tracks. My favorites are ""Carnavalia"", ""Vehla Infancia"", ""Passe em Casa"" and even the slightly poppy ""Ja Sei Namorar"". Antunes voice will take a bit of getting used to for most, and it's a pity a lot of provincial Americans miss out on a lot of good Brazilian music cause they ""can't understand the lyrics"". Don't worry about it! Slip it in the player and relax to the gentle beat of this CD, you won't be upset. Too bad CD's are so expensive in the States, I paid the equivalent of US$6.00 here in Brazil...."
+2824,2,Two down --- tons to go!!,Another excellent novel by Janet Evanovich!! I don't think it is going to take me long to catch up on this series!
+2825,2,The Sheltering Sky,"For those of us fortunate enough to have been in North Africa, visited Paul Bowles' Morocco, and walked in the footsteps of Port and Kit Moresby through the intricacy of forgotten souks while followed by mules, and multiracial children speaking French, Spanish, Arabic and some English, this movie will refresh and invigorate the passion for travel. It will illuminate the travails of relationships, cultures, the unfathomable grief of losses; the whirlwind of ignited desire. Strongly recommend."
+2826,2,Want to Read More,Very good book. Nice sequel. Would liked to have learned more about Rand and his relationship to Maggie and Shea. Hope to read much more about Gregori! I highly recommend this book.
+2827,1,Burns On Both Arms,"I like one of the previous reviewers received serious burns on both arms, also bled from one. Both arms are now medicated and wrapped with a sterile bandage."
+2828,2,Great mystery for non-mystery lovers,"I am leaving on my first visit to Cuba in two weeks, and am reading everything I get my hands on. A friend recommended this and, though I rarely read mysteries, I followed her advice. I found the writing to be quite good and the story exciting; but the most compelling thing was the evocation of place. I feel like I'm already back from my trip, and that I got to know Havana in a way most Americans never will. I know this is a novel, and that the people of Cuba are far more complex than the good guy (and girl)/bad guy dichotomy that's set up here; but the feel of the air on my skin and its smell in my nose is what I've missed in the other Cuba books I've read."
+2829,2,A great game,"This game has great graphics. Although the charecters on one side are tough to beat and dont have the powerful cards in the beginning. The first two openets that I have beaten were easy to beat when learning the controls. Other than that I'm a Yu-Gi-Oh fan, a video gamer. I reccomend that you buy this game."
+2830,2,A magical world of self-discovery!,"Banana Yoshimoto is -- by no stretch of doubt -- a gifted storyteller. She's also one of the best fiction writers today. Her stories are filled with eccentricity and magic. Amrita is not an exception.The story is about Sakumi, a young woman who loses her memory after having lost her famous sister to suicide. With the help of her sister's lover, she is able to regain her memory, but she gets more than she bargains for. Like her previous efforts, Yoshimoto's focal point in this novel is self-discovery.This is, by far, her best work since ""Kitchen."" I marvel at Banana's ability to touch people with her beautiful writing. A must-read!"
+2831,1,Someone published this?,"This book is horribly written. Tayari Jones seems more concerned with trying to write ebonics onto paper than with creative writing. The story itself is pretty weak, and the suggestion at the end that the man convicted(with DNA evidence for at least 3 of the murders) for the Atlanta slayings is really innocent because the killer HAD to be white, is just plain revolting. Clayton State University made this required reading for ENG1101 classes, but even so, my own english teacher along with many others cancelled the assignment after looking the book over. This is because of it's terrible writing style, lack of creativity, misuse of language, and the fact that it just plain has nothing to offer someone learning ENGLISH. Multiple racist comments are made throughout the book against caucasians, even though in the story there is absolutely no reason for it and in truth there aren't even any caucasian characters in the story. Filth."
+2832,1,Has Sylvia become a sell-out?,"Has mass marketing overtaken the true intent of her calling? I was really impressed by the content of her initial work. There is no doubt this woman has a tremendous gift. However, it seems she is now churning out some substandard crap. I found this one in particular to be a repeat (or suggesting you refer to another of her titles) of old stories. She also seems defensive throughout; trying to defend her views and beliefs. She claims to be open-minded but is rather critical of other viewpoints - especially if they are directed at her.Just give us the facts ma'am. Leave the preaching for your church and congregation.Check out her website...$$$$ Then tell me she is not selling out in the name of the almighty dollar.To quote U2 ""The God I believe in isn't short of cash Mister"""
+2833,2,heavy duty,"Heavier duty than their residential grade knobs. The metal is heavier gauge and the finish is solid. I use them on rentals. For my personal residence I prefer commercial levers because they are easier to open if you have lotion on your hands, if you are arthritic, if you have a 3yr old, etc.Hope that helps."
+2834,1,not her best,"I've read other Georgia Beers books that I really enjoyed but this just wasn't one of them. The premise behind the story line wasn't bad, and the throwback references to lesbian culture of a decade or so ago were actually something I enjoyed, but the editing and the way this book was put together just about ruined it for me. I thought at first maybe I was just being picky, but it just got worse for me as the book went on. This may sound silly, but practically the ONLY descriptor of the characters is ""the older woman"" or ""the younger woman"". After awhile, I was laughing every time I read those phrases. An editor should have caught this. I also really disliked the subplot of the father and daughter both falling for the same woman. Kind of creepy. Read Georgia Beers. She's a good author, but skip this title. It misses the mark. A new edition with some additional editing could improve it significantly."
+2835,2,Using a computer through your TV,"Great product. If you have a VGA port on your TV (15 pin), and your computer isn't DVI. This is for you. A plus for a monitor replacement. I am enjoying my PC in full thearatical sound."
+2836,2,LOVING ANNABELLE,"IT WAS A VERY INTERESTING MOVIE! THE ONLY THING THAT MADE ME GIVE IT 4 STARS INSTEAD OF 5, IT WAS NOT LONG ENOUGH AND COULD OF HAD A MORE DETAILED ENDING. ALL IN ALL I HIGHLY RECOMEND IT!"
+2837,1,Audience Chosen CD,"I think if they had voters tell who they wanted to go on they should have waited until the end of the competition and asked the viewing audience what songs they would have wanted most on a CD, put together the top 12 songs and made the CD after the competition was over."

+2841,1,Strangely Disappointed,"I have listened to the CD over and over - it is missing something. I like Devil's Pie, Untitled and Africa cuts, but the rest of the CD loses me. I was prepared to love this CD - Brown Sugar and his live import are wonderful - but I'm afraid I can't."
+2842,2,Breathtaking,One would not have thought that this was based on a book by the author of the Age of Innocence. It was an excellent film with great analogies which foreshadowed the decline of the English aristocracy. It also brought to light the sentiment of the times with regards to American and English relations. It was a great film and worth the time spent watching it. I can't praise it enough. The charcters were believable and forced you to emphatize with their individual plights.
+2843,2,Surprised new owner.,"My wife and inlaws surprised me with this for Christmas. Right out of the box me and my father in-law threw in a less than 1/2"" thick slice of walnut left over from resawing and using the two finished sides. We were able to get a beutiful two sided 1/4"" finish piece. Machine is very quiet. I have a hard time with the 5/65 depth each turn of the handle provides, I have a hard enough time keeping my measurments straight. As most machines offer cutterlocks, and ""no"" snipe, the internal automatic cutterhead makes this planer just that much easier to use. The bigest advantage I see with this planer are the two sided carbide blades similar to hand planers. I hear of people resharpening the high speed steel, but the thought of longer lasting, sharper, and quickly replaceable carbide blades makes this planer stand out. Just think of how much better you carbide tiped table saw blades are. Now off to home depot to find the 2 dolar piece of duct work to use as a dust collector."
+2844,2,"Hilarious Movie, Politically Incorrect, Some Outstanding Performances","""Semi-Tough"" is not a movie for everyone. For those who love sports, sick humor and love the politically incorrect, this is definitely your movie. Dan Jenkins (suthor) makes great fun of pro football and the preliminaries leading to the Super Bowl. While the movie is about a Texas team (the Dallas Cowboys?), the foibles are applicable to most pro teams. Sex, boozing, and offbeat behavioral science are the ingredients, Jill Clayburgh, Robert Preston,Burt Reynolds and Kris Kristopherson are the players and they are downright fun, if a tad unbelievable at times (remember, this is a spoof). While it fails to reach the hilarity of the book, this movie provides more than its share of laughs, many giggles, and some downright guffaws. It is not for the politically correct or weak of heart!"
+2845,1,Does not work yet with MS-office 2007,"I spoke to Neat Receipts. They confirmed that the business card scanner does not work as yet with MS-Office 2007, the primary purpose for which I bought the product. They requested me to hold on to Neat Reciepts until July, by when they promised the problem will be fixed. I am waiting!"
+2846,1,Let down by high expectations.,"Although the Dragons of The Autumn Twilight does capture, for the most part, the essence of these beloved characters, the format seems to rush the story.One can tell a great deal of time was spent on some sequences and artwork while others were rushed. The end result is a flat artistic style which takes away from the original story.Fans of the book will still like this product, however, do not get your hopes up. In time perhaps we will see more time and money devoted to bringing this project to the screen in a way with more substance, grace and beauty."
+2847,2,pharothead phun,"This book is all about parrotheads, how phun. We are hard working people, and this book is about the zany antics that we parrotheads do during a day of vacation.

+2848,2,Satisfied customer,"The Schwinn 230 Recumbent bike has been an excellent purchase. It is a solid, easy to use and realitively inexpensive excercise bike that my wife and I use regularly. Set up of the bike was not bad, but I did have a problem connecting the electrical wires. As a result, I did not have any power to the console. My call to support was handled pleasantly, and with their help I was able to get the connection working. I haven't had a problem since."
+2849,2,A Good Read!,"Copious strategies for becoming a salesmanship champion fill the pages of Tom Hopkins' book. This is a handbook for those who are eager to become sales masters, but are asking themselves, ""What do I do next?"" ""How do I deal with a procrastinating client?"" or ""How can I effectively present my product?"" Hopkins conveys instructions and suggestions through a variety of sales conversations. The author, a master salesman, is obviously enthusiastic about helping others succeed in sales. His strategies, which are based on seminars he teaches, include steps for organizing and writing a successful sales presentation. He also provides strategies for closing sales. The information could be more compact and less repetitive, but it is logical and sometimes even funny. We from getAbstract recommend this book to people involved in all levels and aspects of sales."
+2850,1,Difficult to finish,"I was very disappointed by The Lovely Bones. It was a difficult read right to the last page because the storyline just wasn't deep enough to be interesting. Where many readers couldn't put the book down, I had to force myself to stick with it. I couldn't connect with any of the characters and often found myself wondering why they were even part of the story. I assumed they'd play some key role later but alas, they did not - just sort of fell off the radar, only to be vaguely mentioned (if at all) in later chapters.If this is Ms Sebold's first novel, I have to give her credit. Writing isn't easy and getting published is even harder - especially a first novel. Just wish her editor had encouraged her to deepen this story a bit rather than allow it to just skim the surface of a plot that had so much potential."
+2851,2,Good purchase,I purchased this baby carrier after I purchased the Ergo Baby Organic baby carrier and the Baby Bjorn performs much better. The Baby Bjorn carrier can pull on your neck & lower back if worn too long or while walking uphill so be careful to take breaks or rest periodically.
+2852,2,Al is awesome!!!!,"Just bought it, can't stop listening to it!!!! Got my other half hooked as well. Al Jarreau is superb. Saw him in concert with George Benson and I was amazed at the pure joy I felt in witnessing two great muso's in one amazing concert!!!! This album is a real delight, just like the man himself :-)"
+2853,2,"Lots of information, not enough pictures","This is a great book, but I would like more pictures-preferably in color. But they go in great depth about many things like movies he was in, his wife and daughter, and his personality. Although I like this book, I would not recommend it. But if it is Ewan you are interested in, try ""Ewan McGregor: From Junkie to Jedi."""

+2855,1,Elevator Music,"I'm really surprised at the number of great reviews appearing here for this CD. I am a huge Moody Blues fan, and I own all of their albums, and I had high hopes after the abysmal ""Keys of the Kingdom"" CD. I keep listening to Strange Times hoping I like it better with continued listening, but I don't. I can barely get through most of John Lodges elevator music, and there isn't really a standout song on the whole CD. I really think these great reviews are a result of lowered expectations. After ""Keys"" I agree that ""Strange Times"" is better...but not by much. Where is Mike Pinder when you need him?"
+2856,1,Disappointed!,"Shame on Amazon for not noting this was a live album in their product description. I was in a hurry and bought this album to close out my order and did it based on the song titles. Had they noted it was live, I would have ordered a different album. I'm disappointed in that now I'm going to have to scroll through all the screens to research every purchase because someone short-cutted it and put in a vague description."

+2858,2,EXCELLENT Scope and holds its zero on a .308.,"I absoluately love this scope. I mounted it on my Savage 10FP, bore sighted it and took it out to the 25 meter range. Shot my three rounds to group and made adjustments. Shot two more and dead on. I moved out to 100 yards with five rounds and nailed a 1/2 inch group. Keep in mind these were reloads from a friend who does great work... so you may not get this with the box of cheap ammo from Walmart. The scope held it's zero after several shots. I have yet to try this out at 300 to 500+. I have no doubt this will hold up at that range and will have no problems with repeating my 100 yard zero. If there are any changes, I'll be sure to revisit my review."

I heard Rachel explain on the radio that her record label wouldn't let her do what she really wanted on this recording, so don't blame her! This is okay for its type, but to hear what an amazing artist she is, buy ""A Room of One's Own"" or ""On The Milkyway Express."""
+2862,2,Great to see some fun for Kilmer,"This was one of the first Val Kilmer films I have seen, and in my opinion, a diamond in the rough. It was surprising to see Kilmer not taking himself so seriously as he does in films now. At times it gets a little ""high-horse"" for it's own good (especially in the last 20 minutes), but the rest of the film is both fun and elightening. Nerds of the world unite!"
+2863,1,Monitor Freeze,"I really like The price also great features. one thing I don't like the monitor freeze up on the tv viewing, when this happen you loss control of the unit you have to shut it off by unplug or if you have a surge breaker power switch.

Unfortunately, the 70-290 book was a complete beginners guide. Not only is this the case, the contents go into very little detail to explain. The questions are no-brainers and since I've taken several exams already I know Microsoft wouldn't have this easy of test questions and material.If you studying for the 70-290 exam I would NOT recommend this to anyone.I'm even disappointed that I have to pay my return shipping charges back to Amazon.

+2866,1,Dark-X reveiws (J-Kwon - Tipsy),"Hey its Dark-X and I am warning you not to buy this. Vulgar and foul lyrics do not offend me, but this is just going overboard. Atleast 30 bad words or phrases in the song is just annoying. Albums like this only contain one good song and 2 songs that are semi-good. Those are not worth a purchase of a full album. Buy the single or download the song by paying 99 cents. Hood Hop, Tipsy, and They Ask Me are the good songs. Why pay $15 bucks on them when you can spend less on an Ipod download or the single. I am not one of those people who are unfair to rap music. I gave this a fair rating. I am a rap fan and I like good rap. Did you know J-Kwon got kicked out of his house at age 12. He probably kept rapping sucky rhymes until his mother got deaf.- Dark-X"

+2868,1,Format not content,I have not yet read the book but must say that I am very disappointed with the format. The book is smaller than a normal paperback. The print is tiny and cramped and the margin on the binding side is so small that it is certain to come apart when opened. It is not worth the money paid and I shall certainly not order another book printed by the publisher in question.The Saint: The Saint and Mr. Teal
+2869,2,A Brief Interlude Between Two Towering Classics.,"Nestled between the Cult of the Unwritten Book storyline and the Flex Mentallo/Pentagon epic, the storylines of ""Down Paradise Way"" offer a brief side-track. The Doom Patrol encounters alien civilizations locked in an endless war as they attempt to rescue Rhea (Lodestone), a former team member altered by the Gene Bomb (from DC's ""Invasion"" crossover). But what Rhea has become will shock you - and rock the Doom Patrol to their very core.While not quite up to the impossibly high standards of the volume before and after it, ""Down Paradise Way"" still surpasses most of the comic-book fare out there, now or at the time it was published. Well worth the purchase price."

Some are tolerable at best.These guys bark, snort, scream and wail. They sound like they are hanging from a noose. They have ugly voices which they make worse by barbaric singing technique and style.At best, this is a party record for laughs only [a la] Florence Foster Jenkins. Anyone who criticized Lauritz Melchior for anything, ought to be tied to a chair and forced to hear this disc for several hours."
+2871,2,Very interesting book,"This book starts slowly but gets better and better as it goes along. Very complicated subjects are presented clearly. I finally know what the RSA conferences are about here in Silicon Valley (and I finally know what RSA means). The RSA algorithm is neat and I am determined to hack it (fat chance). Gotta be a way...And now I understand great uses for the modulus. Yep, this was a book that held my attention all the way and I am definitely not a math freak.Only nit was when the author used ""prizes"" instead of ""pries"".I highly recommend this book!"
+2872,2,The hinge area looked a little cheap and ...,"The hinge area looked a little cheap and I was concerned that it would adversely affect their cutting precision but it didn't. They cut beautifully and are easy to control for precise work. The only thing I'd change about them is to make the rounded safety tips slightly smaller. Overall, these are very good safety scissors that I'd recommend to anyone looking for such a product."

+2875,2,Page Turner,"This is the second book continuing Tim Rackley's adventures after his involvement with the vigilantes who double crossed him and cost him his career with the US Marshal's office. This time he gets involved with a cult based outside of Los Angeles. I could not put this book down. I was happy that Rack could continue to heal after his daughter's murder by putting his energies into rescuing poor little Leah, who could not leave the cult on her own. Great book! I am now reading The Troubleshooter, which is the third book in the series and just as much a page turner as the first two books. I love Gregg Hurwitz books. Great, fast and exciting reads!"
+2876,1,Cheap and CHEAP!,"I thought this would be a fun (and annoying) gadget to have a softball games. Unfortunately you can't understand a word being said. Sure it has 10 different sounds but each is just a different mumbled pitch. I'm not even sure if a child would enjoy this for more than 5 minutes. Save your money, or better yet donate it to your favorite cause. This product is just a waste."
+2877,1,"Not a Practical Guide, Not an Insightful Look","This book is a disappointment as an adoption chronicle and a waste of money as a guide. It appears that the authors have very little appreciation for the beauty of China. Instead, ethnocentric, xenophobic comments predominate. This book was discussed on a listserve for adoptive parents, and many contributors were offended by the comments made by the second author.The ""practical"" information in this book is vague and unhelpful. This book gets one star only because one star is the lowest rating available. I give it a zero."
+2878,2,Works as advertised,"I bought the special where you get four in a pack. It's very easy to set up and use. Only drawback is if electricity goes, all your timings are off by the duration of the outage.However, after a couple weeks one stopped working. This wasn't so much of a setback for me as I was only using 3 of the 4 at the time. I just took the green & red hooks and used them on one of the other timers. This allowed me to add an extra on/off setting for that timer."

But even more, i've been touched by the message. In listening to her cd, i'm so encouraged to be reminded that God is using young people today to share His hope and message.rsj feels led to make young people 'shine' brightly for Christ, and this cd definitely had that effect on me. highly recommended."
+2883,1,Caution,"We are great fans of Thomas Kinkade's art, and his Christian testimony. In purchasing this movie we were hopeful of a warm, family movie. We liked the actors and found in the end it had some positive things...family and friends supporting and encouraging one another. However, we felt there were things that would keep us from showing it to children or recommending it to others. Some low and bulging necklines, a father encouraging immorality in his sons by magazines, comments, and lifestyle; an openly immoral young woman playing Mary in the Christmas program. It is true that there are all kinds of people in life, and that there is good in everyone. Our expeience is that it is actually the man that is relating properly to his Lord that has the strength of character to find the right course in life and impact others for good. This testimony, which we believe is true of Mr. Kinkade's life, is not made evident in this movie."
+2884,1,A collosal failure of a flick,"Pearl Harbor...December 7th...a date which will live in infamy. This film took on a subject near and dear to the hearts of Americans everywhere, and failed to do it justice. Fantastic explosions and effects and a quality score from Hans Zimmer could not resurrect this movie from the stench of mediocrity.A tacked on love story was butchered further by the B-level acting ""talent"" of Ben Affleck, but one gets the sense that, even perfectly done, it would not have worked against the backdrop of the terrible attack. It would be like the soldiers on Normandy Beach stopping for a romantic tryst halfway up a sand dune.The movie also played out about an hour too long. The last hour (all AFTER the attack on us) just pushed my opinion of the movie lower and lower.All that said, I did mention that the movie had solid effects and a wonderful score. But poor acting and a bad script were just too much to overcome. Steer clear of this one!"
+2885,1,"Biased Portrayal, Showing Jesuit-Opus Rivalry","Walsh, a former Jesuit, bases many conclusions about Opus (admittedly) on the Prelate's constitution of 1950! He holds the Prelature hostage to practices based on thier rule of half a century ago. What if someone's only view of America's south was a snapshot of 1954? While it may be true that Escriva was slow to embrace the liturgical changes of the Second Vatican Council, so were thousands of clerics ordained before 1969.Opus influence in anti-Marxist dictatorships is frequently cited, yet there exists no apology for Jesuits holding state positions in Ortega's Sandanista Cabinet! He concludes that Opus is ""less Christian"" than those who practice Liberation Theology. Ironically, it was a member of Walsh's former Order that was a US Congressman with a Pro-Abortion voting record."
+2886,1,Potentially Interesting Subject Ruined by Poor Prose,"When I lived in Hong Kong in the 90's I loved reading books like these. This one should be great; the problem is not the subject matter, but simply the flat, dull prose and tortured arguments. Aside from a small section of nice black and white photos I can't say anything good about it. Readers interested in this fascinating city may wish to try Harriet Sergeant's Shanghai, which at least is far better written (I'm not sure the other reviewer here read Wei's book or Sergeant's - it is the latter that is full of ""wonderful anecdotes,"" I think - this one is a mediocre academic text). Another good book is W.H. Auden & Christopher Isherwood's A Journey to a War, which deals with a 1930's journey the two British poets made to China and includes a fascinating section on Shanghai, as well as Canton and Hong Kong, and includes Auden's poem ""Hong Kong,"" which should be the anthem of that city."
+2887,2,Top notch stuff from a wonderful group,"I've followed the career of Carter Smolik for over a decade now and have heard his songwriting, musicianship, and singing improve every time he hits the studio. ""A Questionable Time"" continues that trend. If you are ever in the St. Louis or Chicago area and see Big Red G listed in a local paper to perform a show, by all means, check them out. Yell out a favorite tune (whether a Big Red G song or any other song) and they'll probably do a bang up job right there on the spot. Oh yeah, if you like what you hear from Big Red G, check out an excellent songwriter from up in Vermont named Todd Thibaud. You won't be disappointed. Selah!"
+2888,2,"Good story, dialogue is a little ""stiff""","This is a thoroughly enjoyable faith-based movie that shows how the love of Jesus Christ can change a person's life in every way. Those of us that have experienced similar transformation in our lives can testify to that fact. It's great having a movie to enjoy that emphasizes those values and has none of the normal Hollywood trash to contend with.The only criticism I have of the movie is that the dialogue is a little phony at times in the delivery. Have you ever noticed that, when you're talking to somebody, especially somebody close like a spouse, you don't typically say their name every time you address them? There is a little too much of that going on here, and it rings a little phony. Some of the acting and dialogue seems a little too stiff, scripted, and unnatural, if you know what I mean, but it's still enjoyable.The story line is interesting and relevant. I will watch it again."
+2889,1,Boring,"I thought this book was a little boring, it went into so much detail about what each person wore and the surroundings it took a while to getinto the story"
+2890,2,Kitty baby,Gets off to a slow start but you can see where its going. Been seeing it advertised for a while and thought maybe I should actually see it.
+2891,2,Well Done Ol' Chaps!,"I love it!!! I've been a DL fan since the 5th grade(I just turned 30 a week ago) ""Torn to Shreds"" and ""Gravity"" are my most favorites of this AWESOME CD."
+2892,2,Great Old School Country Music,"Wylie and the Wild West Show country music is a perfect blend of the old school unique lyrics combined with great music. Ideal for the person who enjoys real country and not just the typical ""corporate crossover"" stuff that all sounds just the same. If you miss the way country music used to sound, then try Wylie. Have several of his CDs and MP3s. It's all good!"
+2893,2,It's About Time!,I am so stoke to find this recording after loosing my CD several years ago. This CD is an absolute must for any aficionado of good jazz from the big band genre.
+2894,2,Don't believe the original list price,"...it may be a fun toy and exactly what your child wants, but it 's also just a bunch of plastic."
+2895,2,Very nice stands,"I held off ordering these because I have a 4 year old and was worried about him knocking them over on our hardwood floors but these have a very nice build quality. Heavy weighted base with rubber or spiked feet for carpet. I put the spiked feet inside when I assembled the stands so in case we ever move and I need to use them I'll know where they are. My only complaint is there isn't some kind of keeper to hold the cord in the notch on the bottom so when you move them to vacum or clean the cord comes out of the notch and the stand wont sit level until you move the cord back into the notch. Been meaning to place a bit of gaffers tape on it. Very very pleased with these. I had these speakers all bunched up on a wide entertainment center/tv stand and the voices were hard to make out and really hurt the surround sound, now that I have all these speakers separated voices are clear, distinct and the surround sound is amazing."
+2896,1,DEFFECTIVE PRODUCT,"3 OUT OF THE 4 CD'S CAME WITH DEFFECTS. THEY FREEZ, THE AUDIO IS NOT SYNCRONIZED WITH THE VIDEO. I WOULD LIKE TO RECEIVE A REPLACEMENT."
+2897,1,Very disappointing,"I bought this book because it covers exactly the area we were going to. I was extremely disappointed in this book. All regional guides suffer from the problem that they cover too large an area and therefore lack detail. The Footprint guide is worse than most. It has hardly any maps other than the colour ones at the end, which are almost useless. The hotel and restaurant reviews are very poor, and for some cities and regions are entirely lacking. There is very little in the way of useful transportation information. It's organized in such a way that it's hard to use - descriptions of a city or region are in a separate section from the hotel, restaurant and transportation information. The historical and other background information is scanty. If you can find a Moon or Rough Guide for the countries you'll be visiting you'll be much better off, or join the herd and get Lonely Planet."
+2898,2,Secretariat,"I had heard this film was good. Though I admit that I am a sucker for horse stories, I was nevertheless surprised at how good it is. Diane Lane is superb and the story is compelling. I do not know how historically accurate it is--and I mean just that, I don't know--but it is very well told. It certainly drew me in. I cannot think of a single scene that was not well done. I would recommend this film to anyone."
+2899,1,This book tells you essentially nothing about the topic.,"This book is an OK overview of some basic photo software techniques, but really fails to say much about digital photography, that being the use of digital cameras. If you want a book that's mostly about photo editing software you could do much better, and that's the fundamantal point to this book. If you actually want to learn about digital cameras and digital photography look elsewhere, because this book has very little to say on the topic."
+2900,2,you will rewatch this one.,"The story is times, one time end and the next time is just beganing. Willie weather face addes so much to the story. You can believe that he just may have lived this story.I have rented it a number of times, and each time you rewatch it the story still moves you. This is what we expect from Willie Nelson, stories worth telling.A Fan"
+2901,2,Superbly Entertaining,"I picked up The Last Dance expecting a detective story and was pleasantly surprised to find a unique take on police procedural. The characters were interesting, the dialog crisp and hilarious. McBain could pen a phrase like no one I've ever read. I found the `stream of consciousness' style of dialog hilarious. Some parts were so funny, I read over it again (like a favorite song you replay over and over when no one else is around). Although all police investigations don't end with a bang, I wanted a bigger ending. However, the characters alone are enough to make me want to check out other books in this series."
+2902,2,"This Book is a ""Must have"" but only for advanced users","I recommend this book to all. The included material library is a fantastic group of reallyb useful materials. I found the effects described, a little bit overused already in the industry."
+2903,2,A touching song,"This song, Save Tonight, is a song that really expresses what the singer feels. It's kind of sad, but it's a good song. The song has great lyrics and a cool beat. I like it a lot."
+2904,2,Absolutely Hysterical,Bought this my husband for Christmas. We watched it Christmas day including my 20 year old son. It was absolutely hysterical. This is a great movie to watch if you want to have a good laugh!
+2905,1,The Heat is not what it warmed up to be,"The heat is by far not one of Toni Braxton's best album's. I loved Secrets, it is in my CD player 24/7. The Heat just does not compare. It does not have the same heart-felt lyrics as Secrets does. Although, I do love the song ""Spanish Guitar."" It is such a sexy song. I hope that her next album is not such a disapointment."

+2907,2,Biolean review,I have used biolean for one month and have lost 5-7 lbs. I also exercise with the curves program 5 days a week for 30 minutes. I have had no side effects that I'm aware of. Haven't had problems sleeping. I do feel it gives me more energy. My son has lost more than 50 lbs using this product over a 3-4 month period. My goal is to lose 20 lbs so I will continue with Biolean until that goal is reached.
+2908,1,Decent,Decent but I caution anyone that you'll have to sift through some things. Way to many obviously supernatural acts are summed up as natural occurrences which presents a problem. It's a nice resource but I wouldn't call it authoritative. It left me scratching my head too many times to give it more than a 2.
+2909,2,Beloved Benjamin,I read this book when i was in the 3rd grade and i am now going into the 8th. I can barely remember any of it except for what happens in the end. I remember thinking it was the best book I had ever read and being so surprised at the end. I was so sad when it was all over. I recommend this book for anyone.
+2910,1,trailer makes it look good,Not very funny at all. I thought with all of the big comic names in the movie it would be...
+2911,1,Great movie; not a great DVD,"I purchased this from ''classics_vhs_dvd"" and am rather disappointed at the image quality; the data is highly compressed (only 3.1GB for the whole movie!) and there are visible compression artifacts and audio hiss; no chapter markings, menus, or subtitles. A real shame for such a visually detailed film!It looks very much like a ripped copy burned onto a DVD-R, though the seller claims this is how it was originally released. (Which seems likely to be true; I see a lot of complaints online about the quality of various DVDs produced by Allied Artists Classics.)It's better than nothing, and no higher-quality version seems likely to come along any time soon... but it's sure not what I was hoping for."
+2912,2,"SO wonderfully clear - easy to reference, easy to read","I would not go so far as to say that this book is groundbreaking, particularly if one is already familiar with the writings of Rudolf Steiner or the theory behind Waldorf Education. That said, it whittles down the philosophy to provide useful application, examples, and references. I particularly enjoy the holistic approach from the child's perspective to reminding a mother that she cannot sacrifice all that she is to be a ""mother."" A woman must nurture the inner spirit so that she can know how to convey to her child how to be confident, creative and thoughtful."

+2914,2,a heart wrenching story...if only he were a better writer.,"This is a story that needed to be told. My heart just cried for the poor child who experienced all the pain of his childhood. But, I can't help wishing the story had been written by a stronger author. Pelzer has an important message to communicate, and I hope that writing his book was cathartic for him, cleansing some of his pain, by putting it down in print. Still, the writing was weak. I wanted to cry more..."
+2915,2,Good book,"I bought this book for my daughter, who recently adopted her first cat. I have read part of the book, and there is a lot of great advice in it--now if I could just get my daughter to read it!"
+2916,1,Shows pictures well but nothing else is good,"The SV811 does its primary task of displaying jpg images well. If that is all you want, then fine.However, none of its other features are without flaw. Do not buy it for them.* mp3 playing interface is awkward. Speakers are tinny.* Most videos will not play properly. It is designed to play videos taken from still cameras-- but several formats from still cameras do not play well. If you want to encode video for it, try VCD format. Nothing else has worked for me. With VCD, it badly needs a deinterlacer. The video is not good.* Failed to recognize a new SD high capacity external card (an old standard capacity card was fine).* File transfer function failed.* I upgraded to new firmware-- and functionality became worse."
+2917,2,Great price for a great product,Hands down - the best battery operated toothbrush for the money. This toothbrush excelled at cleaning my teeth & it uses a simple AA battery. I bought this toothbrush for around $20 and used it well over the recommended life of a toothbrush. Will it last forever? No. Should you really expect it to? Of course not.
+2918,1,Meh...,"Remember a couple years ago on MTV? That cover band challenge they had? remember the winning band, Strangers with Candy? they were an awesome good old fashioned hard rock band with great vocals. very original. Well, they ditched the originality, changed their name to Lifer, and put out this piece of generic nu metal that you can't tell from anything else.There are some good songs on here but in a couple years only the best nu metal acts with remain and these guys really don't have what it takes."
+2919,1,One big commercial,"This game sucked! I am probably the only one who feels this way. If you like playing the original Halo, then just keep playing it. The differences in the two games are minimal. And Halo 2 has what is possibly the worst story EVER! The whole game was just an advertisement for Halo 3. Which will probably only be available on the next generation of consoles. 10 out of 10 my eye! Just because it is a sequal to a great game, does not mean it's a great game. So if you like a big let down of a story with hardly any changes between games then get this game. Or you could play the original, and avoid the suck."
+2920,1,Bump free????,"As a black man, I have been in search of a great shave since puberty. I am a big optimist....meaning, I havent given up on this shaver yet. However, I went from using a wahl T-Outliner to shave with(with no bumps) to this, hoping to get a close shave. I ""have"" bumps now and am not sure why. granted my skin is smooth....meaning no stubble, however I now have bumps....go figure. The manual that comes with the shaver states that you may have to give it time for your skin to get accustomed to it......so I'm gonna give it a week or 2 and see what happens. Glad i didnt throw away my old shaver yet. OHHHH, the trimer on the back IS the best thing about the shaver so far....gives sharp lines."
+2921,1,Dreadful writing.,"This book is so unappealing, so boring and so full of lazy, endless repetition on the part of the writer that I can't even be bothered to write out a proper review. Just skip it."
+2922,1,Loud and annoying,"This thing gets VERY loud squeak after about 10 min. The resistance is a joke, and the thing moves around all over. I won't give it one star because it does work, when you can get it to sit still...but not worth the money!"

+2924,2,great stuff,"whether or not you are a fan of flamenco music this is a great cd. The Amador brothers shine with tight guitar playing, and sparkling solos. Creative arrangements like their version of HOW HIGH THE MOON, and the blues riffs on the title track make this an all around good cd. Blues and jazz fans will enjoy this album as well because of its innovative take on classic blues and jazz styles."
+2925,2,Great Preparedness,"An absolute must for anyone who sees themselves as being involved in, or maybe even in the midst of, any sort of custody issue. The book lays it on the line as far as answering questions and direct facts are concerned. If you have any questions regarding custody this book is a must have. I would highly recommend it to anyone. I has eased my mind and helped me be better prepared in all aspects of custody."

+2927,2,Amber at her best,"I love Amber's new album ""Naked."" This CD proves that she is not just a dance diva. I particularly love the 3rd track ""Anyway (Men Are From Mars)"". It's such a catchy song, very different from what I've been hearing out there on the radio. ""He"", ""Love On You"" and ""The Need To Be Naked"" are also very good. I'm disappointed that Amber is not as popular as she should be. She is one underated artist."
+2928,2,Very good book,I really enjoyed this book. Please keep an open mind & let your imagination rule you along with your emotions.
+2929,2,my favorite Dorrie book,"Sweet little witch Dorrie and her cat, Gink, are in trouble again.The community is holding a ""white elephant"" sale/garage sale to raise money for a good cause. At the same time, Dorrie's mother, the Big Witch, disappears. Can Dorrie solve the mystery and foil a troublesome wizard?Of course, the answer is yes! Brave, clever, and loving Dorrie saves the day. The illustrations are funny and sweet, making each character so endearing and original. If you only buy one ""Dorrie"" book, choose this one."

+2934,2,Excellent resource for future One L's,"I was fortunate to stumble across this book when I began to panic about my first year of law school. I wasn't sure how I should prepare, but Falcon's sure-footed suggestions gave me a sense of calm about my upcoming first year. One caveat: Falcon does suggest a lot of other books as ""summer reading"", as other reviewers have pointed out. But if you're not willing to do some reading to prepare, why are you going to law school, where the reading will surely be greater? Some of theses books are out of print, as has also been noted, but I think this is Falcon's only flaw. In summary: if you're about to head off to law school, you need this book!"
+2935,2,Little Kittens,"I love cats, especially female cats. Believe it or not, I found Nursing Nina when searching for a Mama PIG, the matching Nursing NUNA. After viewing and purchasing NUNA, I was taken to the ""you may also like"" with Nursing NINA. The rest is history, as both were in my order within minutes! If you love cats, and love kittens, this is a great plush toy."

+2937,2,Sean Bean before Lord of the Rings & before Game of Thrones,"Sean Bean is one of my favorite actors....and it's not because he was Boramir in Lord of the Rings, it's because he was Richard Sharp in this series.

+2938,1,Atlas is better for me,I have a 350 watt machine thats about 12 years old and it could not even pull the dough to knead it (of course it can't even pull a double batch of cookie dough). The machine stopped on me. I make homemade pasta often and ended up finishing the dough it by hand. Then tried to put the dough through the pasta maker and it stuck together. It couldn't handle the dough any stiffer because it would stop on me. Ended up getting my Atlas out and finished up the pasta as usual. My Mother has a 525 watt Pro series machine thats 2 years old and it pulled it with no problem.
+2939,1,Just Rent It!,"WHAT A WASTE! It's the same scenerio...thank you Jack for saving the world a-g-a-i-n (moan). It's worth renting, and I wish I would have.

I'm dissapointed, but what can ya do?"
+2940,2,A better than fine piece of pop.,"Seven Mary Three has always been an intriguing band. Although their sound itself has changed quite a bit (from 90s alternative rock to something more poppy and upbeat), they've always worn their southern influences on their sleeves. There's just something special about Ross's vocals... even when he isn't growling. On The Economy of Sound, he also sounds smooth, gentle... almost like honey (and in the actual track ""Honey"").The Economy of Sound has a perfect Autumn sound... it feels like October, after the leaves' colors have changed (""Summer Is Over"") and trick-or-treaters are getting ready to go around town. Songs like ""Wait"", ""Faster"", ""Still I Find You"", ""First Time Believers"", ""Steal a Car""... perfect music for those breezy, chilly months. And something for people all over the country, and perhaps the world."
+2941,2,"Great Product for Great Price, Doesn't Work for Mac","I bought this for my MacBook Pro. It worked at first but then it stopped working after a little while. I tested it out on a PC and it worked great. The keys are easy for typing, and the shipping was fast. Great product for PC users!"

+2943,2,A Most Perfect Delight,"I love Romeo and Juliet by Prokofiev, but I hang on every fantastic note of Cinderella. Do not let the price make you think this recording is not worth three times as much. Ashkenzay makes the Cleveland Orchestra shine with every note. Nothing gets thrown away anywhere whether it is the antics of the step-sisters or the incredible waltz, the casting of spells, the frantic stroke of midnight or the soul wrenching finale. You may find recordings almost as good, but you will never find anything like this. Everyone I have played this for is astonished at the sound and passion. I love being able to hear all of the notes that dart back and forth under the melody that other orchestras throw away. Beautiful. Perfect. Magnificent in every way. You must hear this to believe it. I am on my way to buy another one for a friend."
+2944,1,unstable game.,Looking for a contemporary version of Sid Meier's Pitrates! ? Keep on looking. This game is too unstable to enjoy and has poor documentation. Quite a disappointment.
+2945,1,Fusturating To Play,"I was really looking forward to getting Family Feud since I used to watch the TV show. The game can be fun at time but the fusturation ruins the game. The answers have to be exact to count. One question asked something that can get on your windshield. I said ""bugs"" and got an X. The computer says bug which is the top answer on the board. For a modern game to not be programmed to allow slight variations is annoying.Even worse is some of the answers on the top answer board. Many don't even make sense and almost seem like they are made up. One that stands out is to answer something twin boys might share growing up. One of the answers on the board is a girlfriend! There are many type of answers that will confuse you.The game claims to have 1000 different questions yet I have gotten many repeats only after a few weeks of owning the game.I was expecting a much better game."

I have had these for many years but they have now become thread-bare from being so old and the many washings they've gone through. They have lasted very long and are the softest cases I've ever used!! If anyone owns these and has found something comparable to these please let me know...Can't find these ANYWHERE :(
+2949,2,Much better approch than any conventional medicine,"Dr. Zhang has an incredibly sensible approach to staying healthy and treating this disease, a disease that is vastly over treated by conventional medicine. It is the first book about Hepatitis C I have ever read that made me feel better about Hep C when I read it, rather than sick to my stomach."
+2950,2,Great Tub!!!!,I love this tub and so does my daughter. It seems very comfortable for her. She just lays there and gets washed up with no problem. She has not cried once. The cradle part is one of the best features. That should have been invented years ago. This tub makes giving your newborn a bath hassle free.

It has a gold face and is a little more dressy than the others I have.. All in all, it is a great little watch for the money.. I will pay more for batteries over time than it is worth, but if it is like my other Casio watches, it will give me many years of wear..."
+2953,2,Nora doesn't deserve less than four stars,"I agree with the rest of the reviewers about this novel. It hasn't got the spark of other Roberts novels like Honest Illusions and the born in ice trilogy. The romance starts way to deep in the book, at around the 200 page mark. I like the novels where the hero and heroine meet and sparks and passion fly from the first couple of chapters. The subplot is okay, and the plot itself is mediocre at best. Hope the next installment will be a lot better."
+2954,2,Actually...,"The two sides of the LP were labeled as ""A"" and ""One"", respectively - listed in two columns on the jacket's back, with ""Hot Love"" (whose intro builds up like an album-opener) beginning the program in the leftmost column, and ""ELO Kiddies"" kicking off the list on the right - so who's really to say which program should have come first?"
+2955,2,Good for those who need something a little non-traditional...,I had to get this book for my Intro Physics class. It's a good book and it's great at getting the basic ideas across. It's not your average text-book by any means though. It's truly the same as reading a cartoon strip. The font is scribbly and there are characters sort of explaining everything along the way. It's a descent book and there actually are some funny moments.
+2956,1,You get what you pay for,"I bought 2 of these chargers, one for me and one for my brother-in-law. His stopped working 2 weeks later, mine 2 month later (yes, it ""just"" stopped working one day). Based on my own experience I'll say that this charger will stop working 2-8 weeks after your purchase. You'll decide if that's acceptable and if you're willing to take the chance. I believe Apple's charger it's too expensive, and this cheap one just doesn't work (at least for me). I guess the best thing I can do is just keep charging my iPod through the USB port. Thanks!"
+2957,1,Broken again? did not last 8 months,"Cuisinart you got us again! This model we purchased after the constant problems we had with a different Cuisinart model. Well I thought this one would last longer...wrong! These people cannot make a decent coffee maker, save yourself the aggravation and get a different brand.Cuisinart,You might want to consider firing your entire design staff."
+2958,1,"Should be titled ""Take-Out""","I was hoping for creative meals not based on tofu and beans alone. What this book does is give you a shopping list for foods already prepared (store bought biscuits, bottled dressing, shredded carrots from the salad bar- not kidding- canned apricots, prepared pie crust, washed salad greens, cookies, etc.) I do not buy a cookbook expecting ""recipes"" for ""Coffee Floats with Amaretti Cookies"" that tell me to buy coffee ice cream, amaretti cookies, and strong coffe or root beer. ""When ready for desert, fill each glass with cold coffee or root beer and serve at once with straws. Pass the cookies as an accompaniment."" (which cookies I have been instructed to ""Arrange ..on a serving plate."")A gigantic ""duh!"" for this book and an insult to one's intelligence. Don't waste your money on this one."
+2959,1,good but can be better,The idea of the book is good but the value of the book will further more increase if there were photo's and drawings illustrating how to execute the exercise. Only the explanation is not sufficient it might be difficult to understand
+2960,1,Five years and I'm Still bitter...,"About the three nights and 25 dollars I wasted on this overhyped, misanthropic, nasty, credulity-straining and worse, unfunny piece of literary detritus. The few mean-spirited chuckles you'll get are unworthy of you, whoever you are. Unless Donald Rumsfeld is reading this."
+2961,2,weed wacker string,Just what i needed. Weed machine is quite old. didin't think these would still be available. Thanks
+2962,1,dont buy these here!,"i ordered these shoes in the size that i wear in all my shoes and have had this size for ages and they were so tight they were no where near the size i needed. and not only do they not reimburse shipping cost, they do not exchange items bought off of amazon, so i would have had to send them back at my own cost, while losing the $9 shipping i already paid, and then buy them again and pay the shipping cost again! needless to say if you want these shoes buy them from their website, not amazon."
+2963,1,Unusable,"There are no MINUS or 0 star options. I have been recording audio books from Libri-vox to listen to at a later date and also renting audio books from our local library. Half-way through listening, EVERY one of the recordings becomes scratchy over the voice readings 'til you can no longer recognize the words.Re-recorded on another brand and the sound recording was fine. Tried Verbatim on other devices, and the sound was still absolutely horrible. Also downloaded other recording software with the same scratchy results. Verbatim 97458 700MB 52x80 are Totally UNUSABLE!"
+2964,2,And a great guy too,I have to second the previous reviewer. This book is a wonderful work of Tolkien scholarship. He is also one of the greatest college professors I ever had the pleasure of taking. He's a great guy too.
+2965,1,Appalling,"I'm sure glad I got this book as a gift, because I don't like thinking that I'd have wasted money on it. UGGHHH!For 18 bucks, you get 12 pages of horrible art, and a mediocre-at-best cover illustration. This is a depiction Boba Fett ariving in Tatooine orbit with Solo, getting attacked by IG-88, and getting Solo to Jabba. Unfortunately, 95% of the story, dialogue, etc has been cut out. They counted, I guess, on it being ""The Pop-Up Comic Book"" to make this good. It wasn't. A horrible waste of money and resources.If I were the rest of you, I wouldn't touch this stinker with a ten-foot cattle prod!"
+2966,1,Music is best along with the movie,"There are soundtracks that are wonderful to listen to without the movie, such as Ladies in Lavender, and there are soundtracks that go very well while watching the movie. The Red Violin is not as pleasing without the film. With having said that, Joshua Bell does deserve compliments for his excellent skill."
+2967,1,"Great buy at a lower price for required reading, but terribly put together book.","This book was purchased to fill my TA320 reading requirement. The book is poorly put together with formatted essays that are hard to follow and often uninteresting. It almost felt like I was reading a book written by a high school graduate with no respect for the movies. Miraculously, my instructor had much more informing handouts available than the drivel in this book. The cover is from House on Haunted Hill, which was more psychological thriller than horror."
+2968,1,Bad Investment,"Complete waste of money. I wish I kept the box so I could have returned it to Wal-mart. This rack started rusting within three weeks after using. The rust has gotten on some of my dishes. And just as the other reviewers have already mentioned, the stupid pan has no drain! Very poorly engineered product. I bought this dish-rack thinking it would look nice in my new house. Avoid at all costs!"
+2969,1,Very cheap quality videos,"I can't believe how amaturist these videos are!! The concert DVD is acceptable, but the regular videos look as if they were made by a 10 year-old kid. Not for 10 seconds the camera stays still, always moving, pathetic lighting, horrible backgrounds. I kind of regret buying it, but at least I can still listen to the music. Anyway, enjoy."
+2970,2,LOTR,"Of the three movies currently out this is know as the worst, but even the worst is still very good, its an intro to the other two and has alot of background info,.. must watch"
+2971,2,Great quality!,"Before buying this suit, I read all of the reviews that praised its quality. Those reviews were right on! This suit is very realistic and made extremely well. My 4 year old wants to wear it every day."
+2972,1,NO ENGLISH SUBTITLES?,I was deeply disappointed this dvd did not have english subtitles or english for the hearing impaired. Many movies years older than this one have this feature; why doesn't this one?
+2973,1,not suitable for all watch bands,"This tool does serve its simple purpose of pushing the pin out of and into the band, but be careful-1) You have to hold the band very carefully so that the push pin of this tool is aligned properly.2) This tool would work well for a band with wider links. For narrower links, however, it will push it against the side at an angle and BEND the pin inside the link. Removing a link close to the clasp is a very finicky maneuver and you'll likely mangle the band. It'll be very difficult to bend it back into shape and you'll likely have to throw away the link. It was a very costly lesson for my new (expensive) watch.. fortunately, I had just enough links left to survive this trial by error."
+2974,2,Where's Bluey?,"Although I bought this CD and would probably buy it again, I would have to give this CD a four star rating.. I'm basing this mainly against her previous explosive work with Incognito's Jean-Paul 'Bluey' Maunick.. I'm sorry but those two are a deadly combination and should never be separated.. You just can't get any better with song's like ""Operator"" or ""Pieces of a Dream"".."
+2975,2,good but small..,"If you have a big lens like 24-105mm or bigger, it will not fit when its fixed on camera.I will get a bigger one for my extra lenses and othe gera like flash and ect..but its good for body and one small lens. Good quality too."
+2976,1,*shoulder shrug*,Eh. So-so. It's a shame to see the character of Skink reduced to a cardboard cutout of his former self. It may be time for a different formula. The author has ridden this one to death.
+2977,1,root canals are more pleasant,"A sure cure for insomnia this book is. A horrific and dry look at one of the many archetypes pondered in Jungian psychology, do yourself a favor and ""follow your bliss"" in your pocketbook. Rent the Star Wars Trilogy. It costs less and is far less boring in illustrating the heroes journey."
+2978,1,Charts and tables are unreadable,"This is probably one of the best books I ever read. However, the Kindle version has low res charts and tables that are unreadable, even when zoomed. So, in the kindle version you lose all the diagrams that are there to help you understand the great battles. I strongly suggest you buy the paper edition."
+2979,2,Larnelle Harris CD Christian,Larnelle Harris is simply the BEST ! I LOVE thisCD and I highly recommend it! You won't bedisappointed! EDL
+2980,1,where's the music?,"although i like the subject matter here, i've got to say i'm not sure why this writer chose to write poems, other than the fact that each piece is short. one could write these as prose poems and it wouldn't really change the reading of the pieces. and too many poems begin like this: 'alone on a hill above the festival, I listen past field noise' . . . I listen, I hear, I see. I.I. I.I. too much of the romantic bluster that I suppose is supposed to be a sort of Whitmanesque/ deep-image conflation but feels self-conscious. I love some of the poems, don't get me wrong, some wonderful images swirl up as the imagination confronts nature in this book. But I wish the poet played with perspective more. and I wish I got more of a feeling of music from the line breaks, which seem awfully arbitrary to me."
+2981,1,I'll never learn!,"This ""supposed"" hair curler is the biggest farce of a product I've ever encountered or wasted money on. After using it your hair still looks like you just crawled out of bed. From the clumsy curler to the way the curler mashes the hair, there is absolutely no way this product can leave you with a head of hair that you would take out in public. The only reason I still have it, is because I got sick and couldn't test it out before the 30 days were up. I just made some rich guy OR girl a little richer - story of my life. Bottom line. Don't waste your money."
+2982,1,good idea but.....,I loved the idea of these. We have hard wood and tile floors through out our house. However these didn't stay in place and were too tight on my daughters legs. I know of another person who bought them and said the same thing. Too bad I could have really used them!
+2983,2,PERFECT,"Everyone should own this album. I had a lump in my throat the first time i heard it, and i still get goosebumps. Melancholy, but beautiful. Never been more proud of a fellow San Franciscan."
+2984,2,Wings - Seasons 1 & 2,"I was unable to find this dvd in any of the stores that I shop and was very happy when I found it available at Amazon.com.Wings was always one of my favorite series; at one point, I stopped watching Jeopardy so I could watch Wings in sydication.This dvd is contains many cleaver scripts and its loaded with laughs. I would say this is a must item for anyone's TV series collection."
+2985,2,"""Counterfeit"" version","I received the ""counterfeit"" version from Premium Audio Cables. It looks like this version is still available, but no longer the default option.I've found it to be a perfectly good cable, not immediately distinguishable from the authentic, blister-packed, brick-and-mortar-store-bought Mogami cables I was already using. (I simply needed two more in this length.)If you're reading this before making a purchase decision, it's probably best to go with the ""real"" Mogami. But if you're here because you opened the package and went ""?!?!?"", don't panic. It's a cable."
+2986,1,This was sooooo bad,"I mainly wanted to see this movie because of the location--I live in Raleigh, NC and the Outerbanks is truly one of the most beautiful places on this earth. However, the beauty of the location was overshadowed by the sheer awfulness of this movie. Predictable, schmatlzy, and just plain bad--I was p.o'ed that I wasted 1 hr 36 minutes of my life watching this crappy movie. I expected more from Lane and Geer, both seasoned actors. Admittedly, I'm not the demographic this movie targets, but come on, who could really believe this crap? Just say no and skip this one."
+2987,1,NOT HAPPY WITH IT,It Has Plastic Clips That Hold The Bars On Before I Went To Use It One Already Broke. Dogs can Break It And Get Out So Easy. Why In The Heck didnt it Have Metal Clips. TO CHEAPLY MADE. I Have German Shepherds Not CHIHUAHUA's DO NOT LIKE..
+2988,2,Breath taking illustrations,"This is the most beautifully illustrated book that I have ever seen. The story is basic and an easy read, but the illustrations are what make the book. Cherie Bladholm has outdone herself in this book."
+2989,1,Does not work for a Genie....,"I am sure it would work great, but it is just not comparable with our Genie garage door opener. it is a newer garage opener (purchased in 2009) but the opener did not work."
+2990,1,Kodak's warranty is awful!,"This camera arrived not working properly. I sent it to Kodak's warranty company and it was sent back as ""repaired"". I then stored the ""repaired"" camera for about 3 weeks till I used it again. It was not repaired and again did not work properly. I returned the camera again and was denied warranty. Not only that but Kodak's repair company wanted the same price to repair this camera again as buying an updated version. They also required rediculous return shipping and ""evaluation"" fees - $35 to get a unusable camera back. So I completely lost out. This was the very worst experience I have ever had with a company. Kodak has lost my business forever."
+2991,2,Works well for Audio/USB,I am using it only as Audio/USB switch and it works well for this purpose (I switch video directly via monitor inputs).Note that USB HAS to be connected to computers for the switch to work as it doesn't have it's own power supply and needs to be powered. If you were hoping to use it for Audio only (as I was) you still need to connect USB.
+2992,2,excellent,"ian paice,the backbone for my kinda rock..as i do share the same profession,though am a Maldivian,touring around Maldives..passed 25 pleasant years of performing rock..still i do keep an eye on him..."
+2993,2,Speak,"The book Speak by Laurie Halse Anderson was a touching story about a troubled teenage girl. Melinda had a horrible experience in her past and as a result ended up with no friends; everyone that she didn't know also hated her. She went into high school with a bad reputation. Throughout the year she suffered emotionally because of this. Melinda learned that her life could be improved if she tried harder. There was little to no communication between Melinda and her parents or anybody. In the beginning of the story Melinda was very depressed; she cut school, didn't do her homework,failed classes, and moped around her room. Slowly she began to recover from her hurtful past.I read this book because I heard it was a great story. I would reccomend this story to any young teenage girl."
+2994,2,A very nice birthday bear,"I ordered this bear for a two year-old cousin, very cute. And it came fast."
+2995,2,"""They're all gonna laugh at you!""","I've liked the movie Carrie ever since I was a kid and now that I'm older I feel that I can truly appreciate it for the horror classic that it is. The movie follows a young misfit by the name of Carrie White, who's constantly tormented by her peers. All she really wants to do is fit in, but her goal is seemingly an impossible one to reach because of her abusive mother and cruel schoolmates. The film is fantastic in my opinion and I think any one who views it will love it and start to sympathize with the title character."
+2996,2,The Night of Las Posadas,"This book has beautiful illustrations and a story that warms the heart with tradition of Las Posadas in Santa Fe, New Mexico. It has a surprise ending."
+2997,1,What a mess!!,"I bought this little vacuum to replace my broken Eureka Mighty Mite. The Shark is extremely loud and doesn't have enough suction power to pick up dirt under my potted plants. Furthermore, after finally getting some smaller dirt particles picked up, I put the machine on the floor and it burped back up all of the dirt I had just tried to suck up. This is a piece of junk that I am returning to the store today."
+2998,2,Overall good value.,"For the money, the trimmer is a good value. It was a little rough at start-up for the first time, but the more it is used, the more smoothly it runs. I bought mine for about $53.00 and got free shipping. It is a refurbished trimmer."
+2999,1,Not good,"This is a very cheaply made product, it came to me broken, but it would have broke after little usage. On/off switch failed. Again, very poorly made."
+3000,2,Wonderfull look intot he world of Native American Literature,"I was assigned this book as part of a Native American Studies course at California State University Sonoma. I read virtually every poem in this book and went on to read some of the books that this book used excerpts from. My prof. was one of the authors in the book. The poems apart from being good literature were a wonderfull way to gain an insight into how a modern native american views his or her world. The poems speak of schools, gov. problems, conflict of tradition and modern life, and much more, giving a look into a world post people only have a stereotyped view of. If you are interested in poetry this is an excelent book and will be even more enticing if you are interested in Native American Culture as seen by them."
+3001,2,A Rock-A-Billy Must Have,"There are two of these vol 1 and vol 2. Both are excellent works and packed full of some great Rock-A-Billy music. Buy them together, because they both really rock! A must have for rock-a-billy fanatics.The Mean Eyed CatKNON 89.3Dallas, Texas"
+3002,2,Magnetism- Escada Women,I LOVE IT!!! Its not your typical flowery smell. Its hard to describe and I've yet to find one person who hasnt enjoyed it.
+3003,1,Bird feeder,This was nothing like I expected.Next time I will take out a tape measure so that I know how big or small this was
+3004,1,Miss Austen is spinning in her grave,"The kindest comment I can make upon Burris' writing is that I have read worse Austen pastiches. He has a slim grasp of the conentions of spelling, grammar, and vocabulary, and would benefit greatly from the services of a copy editor. His story also makes evident the sad fact that his knowledge of Austen is drawn from television, rather than direct perusal of her novels. Disappointing."
+3005,2,Concise,"A true classic. Very easy to read, and contains many great speeches within it (including Pericles' funeral oration). More-or-less objective, although does favour the Anthenians (mostly noted through diction). Easy to understand."
+3006,1,DO NOT TRUST- mine EXPLODED,"Last night I measured 4 cups of boiling water into this pyrex dish to pour into a recipe, poured the water and set it down on the counter. As I started to walk away it sounded like a gunshot. The glass was all over in a 5 foot radius. I just got this measuring cup for x-mas, it is new. Just do a search for exploding pyrex and you will see that I am not the only one this has happened to with newer pyrex. I am just glad it didn't explode with the boiling water in it, and burn my feet or my dogs. Buyers Beware!!!!"
+3007,1,No wow factor,"I have nothing against Josh. He has a good voice, but sadly, this album is no better than his first one. The selection of songs are so similar to his previous album, and its kinda like a repetition. Nothing as changed. Personally, I find this album boring, and prefered his first cd . Sorry Josh."
+3008,1,Works great but shattered after 5 days,"We owned this little gadget for all of 5 days before it tipped over on the counter and shattered upon impact with our countertop. What a total bummer. When we first got it I did think it seemed tippy; it's quite tall and skinny, and doesn't have any kind of base or foundation like other Bodum glass containers, which would have helped stabilize it more.For those five days, though, it did make very good foam in 30 seconds, as promised. I checked Bodum's site and they sell extra glass containers for $10. Obviously they must know how easily this thing breaks. Not sure why it needs to be glass; it could be plastic and wouldn't make a difference on performance or looks.Didn't spring for the $10 extra glass beaker. I'll just think of this a $20 mistake."
+3009,2,The Lion King - DVD,I was very glad to even find this DVD since I believe it is in the vault at this time. It came before the deadline and all sealed in brand new condition. I hope to use this as a gift so I was very pleased to find it and get it in time.
+3010,1,My Daughter Hated Avent Bottles,"I bought this starter set based on the good reviews and I had heard that Avent bottle nipples were the closest thing to breastfeeding. My daughter refuses to take these bottles. I think that the nipple is too hard for her - it doesn't really seem to mimic the breast to me! I like the bottles themselves but I don't think they are that great for a breastfeeding baby. I have since switched to the Playtex premium nurser system which has a softer nipple that my daughter likes. A word to the wise: when you are trying to figure out what your baby will take, don't buy an entire bottle feeding system because they may not like the bottle and then you have to start all over again. In retrospect, I would have just bought one Avent bottle and tried it out instead of dropping $30 for nothing."
+3011,1,Return to sender,"There needs to be a warning, ""This movie has no English audio track!"" When I ordered it, under Product Description it said Language: English and because of that wrong information (that has now been fixed), I am allowed and will return it for a refund. If others are unsatisfied, I would advise them to do the same.If an actual English version is ever released, I will give it a shot, but I just can't enjoy a movie with subtitles."
+3012,2,Martha Bolton,"I only recently heard of Martha Bolton when my mother gave me her book ""Didn't my skin used to fit"". Some listings have her under 'spiritual',etc., which a few times in the book she gets what I would describe as inspirational in every day life scenarios. But all in all it made me laugh throughout, so much so that I've bought 4 other books of hers & am looking at a couple more. She hits right at the funny parts of life, growing older, etc. Enjoyable, short chapters, easy to read, & easy to laugh."
+3013,2,Highly recommended for your next move!,"These are an AWESOME product! I wish I had these all the times I've moved in the past. They are great for keeping empty cabinets and drawers, refrigerator closed. They are worth the few bucks they cost!"
+3014,2,Nuns aren't all that innocent!,"If you want to see a movie that is a visual masterpiece you have come to the right place! Black Narcissus has some of the most beautiful on screen compsitions of any film I have seen. The most remarkable thing about this movie is that it was shot in the studio - in the hands of any team other than Powell and Pressburger and Cardiff this would be a serious problem - but here the set design, surprisingly, adds more to the way this film looks than it takes away - it is not the material the artist uses but how he or she uses it. This story about a nunnery run amok is as hilarious as it is intriguing - at times I found myself just delighted by the naughty sister Ruth, who is overcome by her wild desires - there is but a very small step between the innocent and the possessed"
+3015,1,boring,My child found the program boring -- too much lecturing & not enough practice. I also was disappointed in the unimaginative games they created to reinforce learning. Will buy something else instead & wish I could return the darn thing.
+3016,2,Must have - great catalogue,Would buy second volume in a minute. If publishers check only flaw is two page spreads. I get the size is relevant to originals but would love to see reprint in larger format and the double page images done on singles. Must be more than enough for Vol 2 to be done.But this is a must have for anyone interested in male nude depictions in modern world.
+3017,1,he needs to get back with paul brown,"not what I was expecting from him. Everyone out there knows Boney is a fantastic saxophonist. However, this album left much to be desired. I wonder why he left Paul Brown, his former producer. He released some excellent albums with Paul brown. I don't think he's doing well enough on his own. I did not find any track particularly mind-blowing. If anyone that really knows boney doubts this, perhaps you ought to listen to ""seduction"" and ""sweet thing"" before making any comments. This latest album is nothing compared to those two. woork harder boney. I would not advise anyone new to Jazz to buy this album."
+3018,1,"A few inspired moments, but not nearly enough...","Who invited Michael Bolton?There are a few inspired moments in this holiday presentation, but Bolton does not provide them... It is clear he has had no serious vocal training and looks visibly uncomfortable when he actually has to stretch himself beyond soulful wailing in numbers such as ""Fum, Fum, Fum."" Domingo and Huang hold their own nicely, though Domingo's own composition is forgettable. Bolton's ""Joy to the World"" is abysmal, clearly the worst part of the concert, which you can see from the looks on Domingo and Huang's faces. On a brighter note, Steven Mercurio is fantastic and vibrant as ever."
+3019,2,Not as good as Harry,"This was an interesting book but not as engrossing as one of Connelly's ""Harry Bosch"" books. Connelly always has an abundant amount of twist and turns and ""The Poet"" is no exception. I don't want to be to critical of this book but compared to all the other Connelly' books I've read (all but ""Angel's Flight"") this was my least favorite. Having said that I think this book will still appeal to alot of mystery genre fans, just not as much to ""hard-boiled"" genre fans. Check out the ""Harry"" books if ""hard-boiled"" is your bag!"
+3020,2,Good for Princesses of Any Age,"I first ran across Fancy Nancy at my nephew's Scholastic Book sale. Nancy reminds me of so many princesses I know--young and old. I liked how they used fancy words and gave the regular word too--a great way to introduce French at a young age. I loved that her parents were so down to earth and normal, but Fancy Nancy is so ""Fancy"".I bought this for my bosses daughter, because she's a posh princess. I wished the tiara was a little more sturdy, but I LOVED the book!"

I SENT 2 EMAILS TO THE SELLER AND HE REPLIED THAT HE WAS NOT THE MANUFACTURER AND HAD NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE QUALITY OF THE PRODUCT.INCIDENTALLY I TRIED TO MAKE USE OF ASSISTANCE AT THE WEBSITE OF NEW MEDIA MERCHANT AND WAS UNABLE TO GET ASSISTANCE, EVEN THOUGH THEY INDICATED THAT ASSISTANCE WAS AVAILABLE.THIS IS THE FIRST TIME I HAVE HAD A PROBLEM WITH AN AMAZON PURCHASE AND I HAVE MADE QUITE A FEW.

+3022,2,Amazing and Fascinating Book !!,"read capter 11 "" economic Instability "" , you would have escaped from being hit badly by 1997 "" Asian Financial Crisis ""....."
+3023,1,Not what you would think,"This book is not what you might think it is. It says it's based on the classic tv show The Ghost and Mrs. Muir but once you start to read it, you do not have to get past the first page, you realize it is nothing like the beloved program.This book is a story about some people in New England who just happen to have the same names as the tv characters. They don't resemble them in any other manner, especially characterization. Fanfiction for this show, beats this book 100%If you read it just for the story, it is okay. The plot is kind of a tired one but if you have nothing else to do......"
+3024,1,Not worth your money.,"I bought this DVD because I thought that MTV could put together a fun and exilarating workout video. But the moves are complicated/awkward and they are hard to follow. They don't give you much time to figure them out. And, you are always doing the reverse of everyone. One thing that was aggrevating was when they change a scene, you are expected to keep moving, but the music changes or dissapears for a few seconds. And sometimes, people in the video move offbeat. The editing is horrible. The camera doesn't stay focused on one ""good"" person. The guest is flimsy and can't do the moves accurately. She doesn't even look like she's trying. Overall it's a horrible DVD. Don't waste your money."
+3025,2,Did not Disappoint,"The Thin Blue Line did not disappoint at all. It was fabulous & hilariously funny just as I remembered. I just wish they were more series. Why oh why did they cancel the show. We want more Fowler, Goody, Habib et al and of course the gys from CID, all of them. I loved and will enjoy it each time I watch them. There is no comedy like Bristish COmedy and the writer of this show is bordering on genius.The Thin Blue Line - The Complete Line-Up"
+3026,1,I thought Sony would work better!,"I hoped that Sony would deliver a better product even for it's low price but, it didn't... at least not for this one. 1st off, it wasn't ""NEW"", it was ""LIKE NEW"". The mic had clearly been used before. And it started off ok, then the quality of the sound declined to bad at best. The signal cuts in and out for live and studio recording. And when it does stay somewhat ""steady"" it fades from strong to weak. Avoid."
+3027,1,Who wrote those reviews? I find the missing identity to be suspect.,I don' t think it is any better than other texts and I just want to balance out the overall rating average by giving a low rating.
+3028,1,"Nice toy initially, but not a keeper","My daughter received this last year for x mas. I didn't realize the coloring books cost ... She finished the first book in two days and then I had to go out to buy a new coloring book. By the time I came home with the Winnie the Pooh coloring book (which is very cute, but not at all worth [the money]), my daughter was already finished with the excitement of the whole thing. Also, the frame broke after about a month. It still works, but I don't think it should have broken.The train plate is cute, but only tells the numbers and says a few things. That wasn't ever used again either.One more thing...The toy is extremely large and difficult to store. I really do prefer a nice regular coloring book, and a box of crayons, and so does my daughter."
+3029,2,Hooked!,My husband and I found the first season of Downton Abbey on Netflix and became hooked! I was so excited to see they had episodes from Season 2 on Amazon instant video! We tried watching them on the PBS website but the feed was slow. It was definitely worth the $1.99 for the episode. We are hooked!!
+3030,2,Too much is not enough,"My boys, ages 5 and 7, can't get their fill of this colorful, wacky book. The love indulging their imaginations with it each night before bed and ""sweet thirds and fourths"" of it in a single sitting would not be enough if they had their way!"
+3031,1,Lame and hard to take seriously,"I'll be honest I never finished this movie. It was that bad. The trailer is great but this film was more group therapy than anything else. I like the idea of adopted children coming together to find their mother's killer. But it was weak. I think they spent most of their time playing ice hockey than anything else. I got rid of it but I think the main character tried using a gun to get the attention of everyone in the gymnasium. Nobody took him seriously, and neither did I.Good concept, bad script and actors that tried with what they had."
+3032,1,Stop the comparisons,"It is such an injustice to put a snippet of a Rolling Stone ragazine review comparing Keane to Radiohead. How out of touch can Rolling Stone be? Keane is a pleasant-sounding band, one which knows how to craft a lush pop song. They are NOT a rock band. Radiohead is a rock band. If comparisons are so important to people, try last decade's Air Supply if you want to know another band Keane may sound like."
+3033,2,"A nice book, esp.","Like Einstein's Bridge, this is _totally_ a great book to read especially now that so much has changed since they were penned. In addition to as well-put-together story that has a lot of hard science in it, they have hackers using Macintosh computers and 14K baud modems, laptops called ""Portable Power PC"" and other wacky stuff. Best of all is this quote from the back of the book, from 1987: ""The Internet is a worldwide computer network that has been in very active use by the physics community for over a decade."" Isn't that cute?"
+3034,1,just a nice diary,"Small books about Lemare's impressions... He wrote down his troubles, afraid and reminds always in fight with the his living time... collegues, family and organs. Sometime those lines are actual because every musicians, organists, composers found thousand difficulties concerning life and others. Lemare write down a small notes about his feelings concerning materials.. just impressions not else."
+3035,2,Truly incredible,"Amazing book, very touching, and wonderful. Mr. Hahn, could you please write a sequel about it? All of my friends want to know what happens next, so to speak. :) The book was incredible and I would reccommend it to anyone who enjoys reading conversion stories."
+3036,1,"Interesting concept, but...","I was excited to listen to this on the DVD-Audio player in my car...after listening to all of the tracks, I came to the conclusion that this may be the worst audio disc that I've ever purchased. I can only imagine the type of person who would enjoy this type of music. Don't waste your hard earned bucks on this mindless crap..."

+3038,1,one long train wreck.,"I am a huge VH fan, and I bough this album the second it came out. In fact, I knew the store owner and he sold it to me a couple of days early (back in 96 when this was released).Gary Cherone is one incredible singer, and could have possibly taken over the slot better had there not been such a drastic foray down this stylized-rock-alternative type of sound.No Van Halen album sounds like the other. Since VH's debut, the albums got more refined and developed over time. The epitome of the Roth era can be found in Fair Warner, while with Sammy on vocals, I feel Balance is the most balanced album, with 4-Unlawful coming a close second.This album sucks if you are a typical VH fan. Independantly each member is strong, but as a whole do not jel. To think I wasted $34 when this came out, because I also bought the limited edition tin case import version in addition to the regular.How Many Say I? none."
+3039,1,Not good,"I was so looking forward to this book. For a variety of reasons I was sure that I would love it. Instead I found, after the first few chapters, that I was making myself read it in the hope that it was somehow going to get better. Its one thing to try and turn a light and frothy story into something deeper with political overtones, but its another to make it boring, awkwardly paced, and with dialogue that slips in and out of being stilted again and again. Some people loved it though, so I would think your best choice is to find a copy and read a bit to see what you think."
+3040,1,Misrepresentation - BRAUN 7040-091 two speed power handle,"Look carefully at product. It is not the same product that you will receive. If you have the charger...and think you will not need a new charger....you're mistaken. They don't tell you that it is not the same toothbrush pictured, and you will need the charger too. How does Amazon let independent sellers misrepresent their product? I can't use what they sent because the charger I have doesn't fit, but, it would have, if they sent me the exact toothbrush pictured.....very upsetting."
+3041,2,Great,"Smells delicious! I love it! I was surprised to see that the lotion was brown, but I guess that makes sense because it has Chai in it. But when you rub it in it's clear. I have sensitive skin and this doesn't make me itch like some other lotions."
+3042,2,"a lightweight, comedic crime caper in Key West; a fun read","'Florida Straits' by Laurence Shames sort of falls into the domain largely owned by Carl Hiaasen: funny crime stories set in southern Florida. However unlike Hiaasen Shames doesn't have any sort of political/social agenda. He simply goes for laughs, and by enlarge succeeds nicely.In 'Florida Straits' we have ""stoopid"" New Yorkers relocating to Key West. As part of their baggage comes their crime family heritage (read: mafia). Naturally some caper gets cooked up amongst the palm trees and, well, that's basically it. Shames does treat us, however, with some very funny characterizations. And he is compassionate with all the quirky folks who call Key West home. However I did find his stereotype of Italian descent New Yorkers to be a bit over the top, especially in making fun of their rather curious accent. It is one joke that he milked too hard and too often.Bottom line: a fun yet rather brainless poolside read."
+3043,2,Great step by step instructions,"I have been searching for a guide to the arts and craft interior know-how book, not just a lot of idea books which there are a plethora of on the book shelves. This book lays out the sizes of wood to use and the arrangements. I feel now that I can tackle the living room with confidence, something I didn't get with all those picture books of the classical Arts and Crafts interiors."
+3044,2,Rock Climbing + Computer use = shoulder problems,rock climbing puts a lot of stress on the shoulders and elbows. Using a mouse and keyboard for hours at a time exacerbates that inflammation. After reading through it and now in stage 2 of the injury rehab routines i am already feeling much better. I would recommend this book to anyone who wants to know how the shoulder works and why it starts to hurt. It is very well written and the exercises can be done at home (so far in my program)
+3045,1,Doesn't fit properly,Doesn't fit on skillet . Seems to be a little to big in diameter . To sit securely on Lodge skillet I ordered with this. I ordered 8 inch skillet and lid and .It fits great.Edit: I ordered the chefs skillet this lid is made for the standard skillet. SKU L8SK3
+3046,1,Awful in EVERY Way!!!!,"This film is basically not worth watching - its derivative plot is silly in the extreme, its characters nonintentionally comical and its dialogue so ludicrous as to be pathetic. How on earth did this pap ever get made? Don't waste your money on this garbage, and don't be fooled by the glowing reviews on this site. I suspect, as one reviewer pointed out, all the great reviews were likely submitted by friends of the filmmaker, or perhaps even the fimmaker himself (under a series of pseudonyms)."
+3047,1,Avoid buying this book,"This book is nothing more than the demented attempt to get attention from the American people, much like his Oscar speech was. This man should be termed a shock writer, saying whatever will upset people.This book should be entitled ""Please don't elect Bush again"", it is nothing more than a twisted view of his own political agenda that is not based in reality. I urge people not to buy this book. It was one of the worst reads I have ever had."

Once i got the prouct i was excited bc for the price i got a pretty nice amount , but once i opened it , it had this funny smell to it you can smell the tea tree oil but i was like they mixed something else in with it. Now i buy tea tree oil alot but i decieded to go with something else that was cheaper ..WRONG .I will not be buy from them agian."
+3050,1,Dreadful! What went wrong?,"I can't believe how bad this film is. This is the second film (The first being ""House of the Dead"") that I actually couldn't finish because I was bored. It had action but it was boring because I didn't care for any of the characters despite all of the name actors attached to the project. I really tried my best to continue to watch. Normally a quick shot of a nude Eva Mendez, and constant pans of Scarlett's cleavage would have been enough to keep me watching but even those lovely sights weren't enough. It's that bad folks. If you enjoy this type of visual style, you would be much better served watching Sin City again. If you haven't seen Sin City, then you should skip this one and watch that one instead."

+3053,1,Don't throw your money away on this tool!,"I was very disappointed with this product. I thought that if I spent the money on a quality tool that I wouldn't have to worry about buying another one to do the job. I tried using this ""contractor grade"" studfinder on two different applications; a wall with drywall and a tiled wall. The readings for both jobs were very inconsistent. Needless to say, that tiled wall ended up with a lot more holes than necessary. You would think that a tool that could go through concrete, drywall and plywood would work through tile. This tool sits in my toolbox unused now. This is no better than using the old-style magnet, the only difference is that this item is much more expensive."
+3054,1,don't bother to read this,"Why would anyone bother to read this when there is the lonely planet guide available? This is in my opinion a vastly inferior guide when compared not just to lonely planet but to many of the others available, it lacks organisation and detail."
+3055,1,"Light, Dated, Error Filled, Not Very Well Done.","Until O'Reilly comes out with a UniCenter book, this is sadly all you will be able to buy. Typical Que coverage of a topic; lighthearted, outdated, whimsicle, and very worthless. I have reviewed many Que 'Pulp-Computer' publications and this one is on par with what they have produced in the past. UniCenter is a complex topic and this book completely misses the boat. If you are studying for a UniCenter designation or are implimenting UniCenter at your site, you will surely fail to find any meaningful answers in this worthless waste of trees. I have both implimented CA UniCenter and have taken the certification exams and can tell you that you will find no help in this book."
+3056,1,Absolute garbage!,This novel was full of nothing but the most off-the-wall ridiculous caricatures (not characters) and leads you thru a series of completely unbelievable and unentertaining situations to an utterly worthless ending that makes you realize that any time or money that you invested in acquiring and reading this story was an absolute waste of time. The rating of 1 star is because there is no options for a zero or negative star rating. STEER CLEAR OF THIS LOSER!
+3057,2,Peace at every doorstep!,"Peaceful Parents, Peaceful Kids is one of the ""number of points"" self-help books that are so popular these days. The opening message that peace in the family begins with peace in the parent clearly moves us in the right direction.Author Naomi Drew has already had a hit along the lines with Learning the Skills of Peacemaking, also aiming Public schools. We can't just place the blame on television, school, other kids, or lack of time, not if we want to actually address the problem. Drew's some of her imagined resolutions are a little too elaborate, she uses concrete, realistic examples. It's important to aim high when you're planning a successful family. Even if you only manage half the book's aims, you'll be much better off. The author breaks the big job of bringing peace to the family down to seventeen points. Parental actions should be guided by love, compassion, fairness, respect, and integrity and nurture these attributes in children. Indeed! Peace is at every doorstep!"
+3058,2,Beautiful! Words can't explain!,"This book is absalutely amazing. The story will fill you with emotion. The art will leave your jaw hanging down. This first in it's series book tell the enchanting stary of the Wolfriders. After reading this you will search until you can't search anymore for this out of print series. The first time I read ElfQuest it was true love. I have never betrayed my love. After reading it, neither will you! A definate MUST READ!"

+3060,1,"Starts good, ends bad!","This book started out with an interesting new cast of characters and culture that made me hopefull that Goodkind was going to change it up a little. Unfortunately there is way too much in depth analysis of what people are eating or wearing and a lack of substance to the story. All the new characters end up (after 600 pages of reading) being irrelevant and a basic waste of time. The main character Richard then pulls some unexplained magic trick out of his [...] and saves the day,just like every other book in the series so far. I hate to stop the series after this many volumes, but ""tired"" is about the best way I can describe this series."
+3061,2,Sharp & Clear presentation.,"This Volume 3 is a surprisingly sharp & clear presentation of the 1954-55 SHERLOCK HOLMES TV series, much better that the presentation on the Madacy 20 episode DVD set.This is also an improvement on Alpha/Gotham's first two volumes, which were mixed from acceptable to passable. These seem to be direct Film to DVD transfers, the first two volumes look like 3/4 video tape was used as the master source.HOWEVER, be aware that the first episode on this disc, ""RELUCTANT CARPENTER"" is mastered from a splicy print. The other three episodes are quite clean.The program line-up:RELUCTANT CARPENTERPERFECT HUSBANDROYAL MURDERSHY BALLERINAHighly recommended over the Madacy release. I would choose these less-compressed 4 title DVDs over Madacy's crammed DVD set."
+3062,2,As Advertised,The printer setup on Vista went without A hitch. It performs well with a short learning curve. A real decent AIO for the home user.
+3063,1,Not so hot!!!,"Very disapointed in this book; nowhere up to the other ""For Dummies"" volumns I've purchased. As a ""how to"" instructional volumn I found it very lacking in clarity and comtinuity as a step-by-step manual."
+3064,2,Good viewing,"This magnification credit card is an excellent product. It magnifies even the smallest type, such as that on product labels one might encounter in stores. It fits in your wallet. All this at a remarkably low price."
+3065,2,NOT AS GOOD AS HIS OTHER CD,"This album is a little weak compared to his first one, it is well worth buying. Same quality as his first with a couple of weak cuts, but over all pretty good. He still plays great guitar on this along with his fine vocals. He improved quite a bit on his second effort."
+3066,2,Wonderful! Reveiw by a 12 year old,"This is a wonderful book! It tells the story of a young girl who is a preachers daughter and faces always moving from place to place, therefore never having any friends. When Jo moves to Jericho, she finds a new friendship in an unexpected person. She must face the racism in her town and help her friend overcome it and other challenges. This is a wonderful book, for all ages!"
+3067,1,Too little mystery and too much explicit sexual description,"Highly recommended, I read Hide & Seek thinking I would be rivited to my chair... not so. The plot was twisting and at times interesting but it left too many of the mystery/thriller details out. I have never read a good mystery/thriller that had so much detailed sexual information. Sex may be on everyone's mind but it did not have to be so exploited. I hate to judge an author by one book, but I certainly would not recommend this book or the author to any age readership."
+3068,1,Ready Wikipedia instead,"I couldn't help but feel that the 'tone' manipulated the audience by making statements that were never backed up by facts. Surely the history of the Borgia family is one that is filled with murder, corruption, intrigue and I suppose incest but the information is presented to make its audience shake its head on how could a pope and his cardinal son ever have gotten away with such things. Trouble is many popes and cardinals had mistresses and children out of wedlock and have themselves manipulated people to have a favorable outcome in their ambitious climb to the top. True while this isn't the same thing as murder and incest - I feel that this was laid on rather heavily to titilate the viewer. Go to wikipedia instead."
+3069,2,Good laser for a low price,"This laser pointer is a bright, inexpensive laser pointer suitable for any general use. The delivery was prompt and the quality of the laser appears to be good.PROS: Inexpensive; bright; comes with a basic carrying case and slipcover; generic batteries are included.CONS: Feels a little lightweight; batteries included aren't the best.Overall, I recommend this as a good-quality basic laser."

+3073,2,Coloring as Meditation...,"Scherek's ""Celestial Beings"" are simply heavenly! The intricate designs are surprisingly soothing and serve as an excellent alternative aid for meditation. What's even more fascinating are the slight differences between each celestial being, somewhat like a brain teaser. Each image, similar but different, thereby allows one to embark on a whole new magical and peaceful coloring journey.(Copyright 2004, All Rights Reserved)"

They all worked the first time but then when the student brought them back to the next lesson, I was unable to record. I got disc error messages --I tried everything --including cleaning. Of the 20 I bought only 1 worked properly. I sent a few back as I discovered they would not record the second time. I never heard back from the company and got no refund.I subsequently ordered the Sony +rw mini disks and have had no problem ---every disc has worked without fail."
+3076,2,Its not an experiment - its a fact!,"The Intention Experiment is a great book to explain a powerful force that has been known by humans for thousands of years. Now 'science' can confirm it. Truly this is not 'new' - but that is not an attack on the author or the book - they deserved full marks (and its a great read) - what is interesting is the fact that this is the discovery of how manifesting works, which was taught by Wattles, Haanel, Edison, Hill, etc wrote about and taught for so many years.You can understand why/how it works with 'The Intention Experiment', but if you want a set of instructions on how it works just for you to get what you desire - just go back to the source:Think And Grow Rich: The Personal Study EditionThe Master Key System: The Personal Study EditionPath To Prosperity - Mastery Of Destiny - Acres Of Diamonds: The Personal Study EditionThe Science of Getting Rich: The Movie - 2 Disk Set"

+3078,1,Waste,"Hated it! Ok, the dish is really cute. However, it would not be helpful for an outdoor event. The area that holds the ice is a joke - it would probably hold about 1/2cup of crushed ice. So think about that prior to making your purchase. This dish would not be suitable for an outdoor event. So if you want a cute bowl for indoor entertaining, then this is it!"
+3079,1,History or what?,"I am a retired history teacher and still maintain an active interest in the subject. I was curious about The Fourth Turning after it was referred to me by friends. I am about half-way through the book and doubt I will finish it. I have struggled with it and have put it down a half-dozen times as I find the writing almost incoherent.Most theories can be stated clearly and followed in a logical way. I think cycles in history have merit and, as the authors point out, like the seasons, do have some consistency. But to assemble the writings in a potpourri and present it as credible history is beyond my comprehension.I am surprised that few reviews have mentioned the atrocious writing of the authors."
+3080,2,Good for a 10Mbps Hub...,"I must say that for a simple non-switched 10Mbps Ethernet hub, this one is pretty good. The metal box and small size makes it pretty handy. Unfortunately it's pretty outdated for the things you can buy for a few more bucks. You're probably better spending your money on a Linksys EtherFast 5-port Worgroup Switch, which has a dedicated 100Mbps (or 200Mbps in full-duplex mode) of bandwidth in each port.... But if you're adament about a plain 10Mbps hub, this is a very good way to go."

+3085,1,EXPECTED MORE FLAVOR.,I expected more Lobster flavor from this Progresso Product and I felt the Lobster flavor was very weak and I didn't see a speck of Lobster meat in the sauce. Although the sauce was good my guests thought that they were eating regular Spaghetti sauce and were not aware that it was a Seafood Sauce. There is a need for improvement.
+3086,1,"Good size, but that is about it","The size of the keyboard is exactly what I am looking for but the design is somewhat boring, or actually cheap. A bit more style would be nice. The layout of the keys is good for me. Not sure if this keyboard is spill-proof. There are no holes in the bottom.It looks quite robust. I'd take it anywhere and not fearing scratches on it. It would be a different story if it was more stylish.The buttons were a bit stiff to press in the first week. They became more flexible after that but it still requires much effort to type compared to the more high profile keyboards out there. It also isn't a very quiet keyboard. I'm now on the lookout for a more quiet keyboard."

+3088,1,Disappointing,"I couldn't wait to read this book because I enjoyed Nuala's autobiographal effort so much. I actually found the novel disappointing and almost embarrassing at times. The central character Kathleen is a bit of a dag, whiny, self obsessed, humourless. The other characters just don't come alive somehow. The plot is predictable and plodding. The sex scenes are cringe making. I guess it really lost me when Kathleen's middle aged lover leaves his false teeth on the bed. More detail than I needed, Nuala."
+3089,1,"terrible, even at a low price","I bought these clippers for cutting hair at home. Even when fully charged they offer very little power and tend to bog down when clipping only mildly thick hair. The charge doesn't last through one haircut.The trimmer blades come off when you try to advance them with the thumb slider to adjust the length of hair being cut, and they don't trim evenly. I finally gave up on the trimmer attachment and went with just the trimmer blade over a comb.I wouldn't recommend this product to anyone. I was extremely disappointed in it."
+3090,1,Extreme?,"I have an english bulldog that loves to chew. He's pretty good about just chewing on his toys, so we constantly make sure to have a new stock of toys for when he destroys his current flavor of the week. We purchased this item from the local pet store. Most of these Kong products have seemed to last a bit longer than most. This bone lasted just a day as he quickly had one end ripped off the bone. The best part was that he wasn't able to shred this into millions of small pieces. None-the-less, if your dog tends to go through toys as fast as ours, then you may want to choose a different toy."
+3091,2,Economy watch; gets the job done!,"Simple to use for just about anybody. Looks okay, but the belt looks and feels too toyish. However, if you are looking for an inexpensive digital watch with no non-sense functions that'd last a long time, I think this watch will serve you well."

I posted an orginal review after just trying it out in my bedroom and had to retract it after doing a total vacuuming in my house. OMG yes it sure picked up everything including the carpet fibers. The height bottom does not work hence this happening. It's going back and I'm off to Sear's for a Kenmore. If you love your carpet you will not have it for long.

+3093,1,One big problem that reviews overlooked,"I'm a graduate student and I have a fair understanding of basic statistics. I browsed through many titles in the hopes of finding a book that was easy to understand (statistics for dummies, intermediate statistics for dummies, etc.) and I found out that all of the books were very descriptive...without having good samples that I could run ""statistical analysis"" on. This book piqued my interest because the book incorporated the use of microsoft excel to demonstrate how these analysis were done. I thought this was a great idea b/c I would probably be running my data through excel and this would help me learn the material easily. However, I soon realized that you needed another program called minitab (costs 100$) to follow these examples. I simply cannot justify paying for this program at this point in time. If you are ok paying 100$ for this program to use the book then go ahead and purchase this book. If not, you're better off looking for another book..."
+3094,2,Fascinating family history,"The true history of a Southern slaveholding family, pre- and post-Civil War, the heirs of the famous ""Cotton is King"" U.S.Senator, James Henry Hammond, which is told through their own letters, and the excellent interpretations of Carol Bleser.The word, ""slaveholding"" may give you a shudder, but this family had its share of troubles and sorrows. On a different scale than their former slaves, of course, but troubles nonetheless. And then there are happy occasions-the births, marriages...it's life, good times and bad, through one of the most tumultuous times in American history. My only quibble is that I want to know even more, in depth, about all of these people - the letters and Ms. Bleser's essays were a great start, now I want even more!Highly recommended."

+3097,1,One Very Long Song,"Let's start this with my confession that while I have wideranging musical interests I have little knowledge of trance music.If this CD is any indication, I now understand why.With the exception of no more than three songs, the same disco beat and song structure permeates, no, infects this CD. Were it not for the quiet parts between the tracks I would have little ability to tell one ""song"" from another. Perhaps this is the desired effect. If so, I'd just download one song from the CD and then replicate it 16 times and you'd have the same result as buying the CD.So why even two stars? Well the vocalist has a pretty good voice even if the lyrics are incredibly banal and if she is the woman on the CD she is good looking. How shallow is that?After I download a couple of songs to add to my running tunes on my Nano I will have a very lightly used copy of this CD for sale cheap."

+3105,2,mackie cfx20,"I love this board. The mic preamps have better range when compared to behringer and peavey. The sound doesn't fade or distorted when the volume increases. It also comes with 16 Mic preamps when most boards in this class has 8-12. The subgroups could be directed to the main, aux AND 4 individual sub outs. I'm a sound tech that provided sound for 100's of concerts and I must say that singers and other sound techs are surprised when I show them the features on this board and tell them the price. I love this board and recommend it to everyone. You will not be disappointed."
+3106,2,Wonderfully written book on Witchcraft for beginners!,"I am still a beginner Witch, and this book was the door that opened into whole other worlds for me. The author includes descriptions and pointers on many different subjects, such as candle magick, meditation, and outlines of rituals, as well as magnificent artwork. If you are at a loss for what to do next in your spiritual life, and Witchcraft has caught your attention, you need to read this book!"
+3107,1,Had allergic Reaction,"Seller was kind enough to refund part of the order, but I did have an allergic reaction to these pills. So wouldn't recommend trying these until you are in a safe environment to deal with hives or allergies. (I was in Belize on a small island... didn't work out so well lol)"
+3108,1,Too much fluff,"Apart from the introduction to RFID in the initial chapters the rest of the book is of little use. For example - Chapter 17 is on ""Is outsourcing right for you"". Chapter 16 spends time on explaining why ROI should be used as a measure to evaluate RFID projects. I wish the author had stuck to core RFID concepts rather than mixing business strategy and finance issues. There are plenty of other sources available for that.Overall, the first half is a decent introduction to RFID concepts. Not nearly enough if you are embarking on a real project though."

+3110,2,Geoff Wilson's Complete book of Fishing Knots & Rigs,"Este es un libro internacional, especial para aquellas personas que están interesadas en mejorar sus tecnicas de armado de equipos de pesca. Aunque es un libro en inglés, para los guÃas de pesca de habla hispana les será de mucha utilidad. Con lo que respecta a los dibujos de pesca son extremadamente detallistas y faciles de seguir. Considero que es uno de los mejores libros, su costo, la calidad del papel y el trabajo en dibujos y la forma sencilla de escribir permite es un libro obligado de trabajo de todos los guias de pesca y de los pescadores deportivos."

He has brought me from a beginner to an established 35 student drum teacher in this short time. I owe it all to him! If you don't live in the San Francisco Bay Area and can't take lessons from Jason directly, you NEED to buy this book. It will show you almost anything you want to learn on the drum set and will definitely improve your historical knowledge and playing ability. I now teach out of this book and all my students love it. I hope you find it as helpful as Jason has been to me. Take Care!"

It is a book about the unbelievable efforts made to transport gold and silver from New Spain and Peru to Spain between the 15th and 18th century, how these precious metals initiated worldwide commerce, about the rise and fall of the Spanish/ Habsburg empire and how it helped European countries to become economic and political world powers. Waltons book moves through three centuries of world history in an appropriate pace, without leaving out interesting details. It simply is a fascinating book!"

+3119,1,The Motorcycle Diaries,Ithink that the DVD was kind of boring even though it was a type of good learning of El Che you still had to understand a lot of parts of the movie which I really didn't understand that is why I gave this DVD a 1 star.
+3120,1,"Misogynistic (yes, you read that correctly)","I was relieved to see that another reviewer took note of ""Dr."" Laura's profound animosity towards her own sex.I couldn't finish this book. It offended me far too much. In Schlessinger's opinion, it seems that the ""stupid"" things men do are all the fault of the women in their lives. According to her, the only ""stupid"" thing a man can actually do is associate with the wrong woman. (My Lord, it was the woman! SHE told me to eat the apple!) She also spends an inordinate amount of time excusing sexist and inappropriate male behavior as ""biological.""I don't like walking around all day seething with anger, so I closed the book. I suggest you do the same."

+3122,2,An excellent book! An excellent kernel!,"I had never used a real-time kernel. I bought MicroC/OS-II and Embedded Systems building Blocks to get started. The books are very well written. The kernel works great. And in a couple of days I was up and running my first application based on the MicroC/OS-II kernel.No need to shop for another kernel, no need to shop for other books to explain how a kernel works. This book is the answer to all your questions about ""What is a real-time kernel? And how does it work?""I highly recommend this book to beginners as well as experienced embedded programmers."
+3123,2,Great Watch! Long-lasting battery too,"Purchased June 2008 for $59.75The watch face won't get scratched easily like my Citizens always do. The face is protected well from any damage. Watch has taken a beating but still keeps excellent time, world time feature is great for travelers. I've worn it in the Pacific Ocean without any worries (mainly so the fish wouldn't come after one of my shiny watches). Light works well in dark environments and I use it a lot!The timer and stopwatch get lots of use.Battery is still going strong after three years of hard usage.My only complaints:1) the hour and minute hand take too long to reset if you have to turn time back. Casio should improve this to make it easier when changing time.2) digital numbers can be difficult to see at certain angles."
+3124,1,Complete and utter garbage,"I used this VCR for about a year before it developed the ""snow"" problem mentioned by so many other reviewers. None of the suggested fixes worked at all. I'm stuck with a very expensive doorstop.Given the number of people who have reported this identical problem, I can only conclude that the SV-5000W is poorly engineered trash. I won't be buying any Samsung products in the future."

You'll get a light sprinkling of information withan over-sized helping of Ego.Ferris, like Bourdain, is more journalist than expert; althoughthey both wish to feign to be peers of those they admire.That said, the DVD is well produced, well-shot, and paced reasonablywell. For a beginner, it may entice them into the pursuitof amateur astronomy.There is no doubt that Ferris loves the subject and is in awe ofthe Universe and our small place within it.And for that saving grace, I forgive this largely self-indulgentwork.jeff"
+3126,1,"Assumptions, cliches, profanity, and outdated information","I wasn't a fan of Kimmel's writing style... it struck me as being a weird mix of colloquial and juvenile and know-it-all. It seemed like he was using a slang term or colloquialism every other paragraph, often in conjunction with ""big"" words. One sentence that stood out to me was this description of the Palin family: ""Who is this paragon of bad mothering, this feckless father, this slutty teenager, her randy boyfriend with this felonious mother?"" Really, Kimmel? Are you tying to get on college kids' level by using offensive terms such as ""slutty""? Why, of all those adjectives, was that the only word used that the average frat kid will know off the top of his head? Whose level are you trying to get on? I also agree with the previous reviews that said Kimmel makes many assumptions that he then presents as fact, and doesn't seem to have nearly enough citations."

+3129,2,George Washington Gomez by Americo Paredes,"Americo Pardes is a wonderful author. He also writes poems.George Washington Gomez is a depressing book. It's depressing because Gumersindo Gomez died, at the beginning. It shows great leadership towards, fighting for what is right it also gives you confidences for standing up for your goals.The Texans Mexicans showed that everyone struggles, and that everyone isn't easy.One struggle was crossing the Rio Grande Valley. Gualinto needed to provide for his family, since Gumersindo past away.George Washington Gomez is a racial masterpiece, towards Mexicans (Latinos).Which I believe is cruel, and mistaken killing innocents isn't the way to go. For example The killing of Gumersindo didn't have a caused at all. Texas Ranger needed to look back, and realized that people do have families, to provide for. I also believe everyone wants a safe future. I suggested you to read George W. Gomez."

+3135,2,Great Movie from a Great TV Show!,"I really enjoyed this movie. I'm a big Firefly fan--not a fanatical one, but I really found this show extremely entertaining. The writing and acting were top-notch in both tv show and film. I'd recommend this to anyone who enjoys a good comedy-drama with fun characters. I also highly recommend the Firefly DVD set. Anyone who doesn't watch these shows is really missing out!"

+3138,2,Very good read,"Birmingham's book is a very good read. I like the hard collision of cultures between the future folks and ""contemporaries"" or ""'temps"". The interesting point is made that the technology brought back in time may not be the issue driving the most change in the past world -- the mores and culture of the integrated futurists may be.Good characters, good plot, very entertaining."
+3139,2,Wish you could find these in stores...,"Like several had said, I can't find sponges like this in stores anywhere... only the ""natural"" sponges or plastic loofas. Anything close is garbage; the last one I found at a grocery store fell apart within months. This, on the other hand, is hands down the best shower sponge I've ever had. It holds soap far better than my last one, so I go through less bar soap as a result. It's very soft as well. I've been using it for a few months, and it has held up very well... the pack of three should last me a long time."
+3140,2,BEST DESERTS EVER,"The deserts are wonderful, I ate myself into a frenzy with the peanutbutter cookies, and they were all made with splenda you betcha, I no longer crave sugar free deserts I cook them.This book is truly a gift to share with others. Just like my new beverage of choice that replaced my morning brew. Its called s oyfee and taste so wonderful with no caffeine or acids. Organic and made from soya! Bye bye acid stomach and hello healthy tummy! Google it under ""acid free coffee""I just got the book and I made the Heavenly Cheesecake. It was the best cheesecake I have ever had. Honestly. I am amazed that it has no sugar. It also tastes so rich that it is hard to believe it is low in fat. I would recommend the book on this recipe alone, although, there are many more recipes that I am anxious to try. For anyone watching the sugar, fat, or calories in their diet, this book really is unbelievable."

+3143,1,"Poorly researched, intellectually biased","Study the early church fathers with an open mind and you'll be pleasantly surprised, all you anti-Catholic Catholics (and others). I'd recommend Scott Hahn's books as a start. There is no substitute for an open mind and earnest, good faith study. This book supplies neither."
+3144,1,Bled dry,"I read this book because I am in a vampire craze right now after speed reading the ""Twilight"" Saga. This book is a complete opposite of that storyline. ""Blue Bloods"" is an easy read but not well developed. It ends leaving you wondering what is going to happen next, but it seems that the author does not know what she wants to do herself. There are a lot of characters and you have to pay attention other wise you could lose the thread of this still developing plot."
+3145,1,not the best shooter,I was a little let down with this fps. Not enough action for me. Game was a little slow.
+3146,1,Not so excellent as it is hyped about...,"I purchased this book recently. Given the amount of praise Amazon's customers have given it, I expected it to help me resolve my indecision. (I have three major fields to choose from) Nope, it does not. It's a good book, but it doesnot come anywhere close to ""The Pathfinder"" (which in my opinion, is the BEST). Barbara and Paul Tieger's ""Do what you are"" is second. My view is that once you can target what you want, getting it is a lot easy. You will not then need any special techniques or tricks because your heart will show the way. Get ""The Pathfinder"" first and do all the exercises there. Maybe you won't need this one then."
+3147,2,Beautiful knife system,"This is a wonderfully made ""combo"" knife from Victorinox. The extra long saw blade really comes in handy for cutting branches for making primitive fire bows and kindling for practicing fire making on your survival outings. This is a slightly larger frame knife than the other combo knives but the extra beefiness is well worth it to me."
+3148,1,"Built well, but doesn't mix bottom. Poor customer service.","We bought this instead of the Kitchen Aid; it looked like it was very well built and the price was right. Wish we had bought the Kitchen Aid [this replaced an old Kitchen Aid]. The beaters do not come close to the bottom of the bowl, always leaving an unmixed area. There is no adjustment for it. When I contacted their customer service about it, they were not concerned about it and of no help, so I would rate their customer service even lower than the usefulness of this appliance. It's about ready to go to the Goodwill and get a mixer that works. Stick with Kitchen Aid... they work the way that they are supposed to."

Amazon shame on you!Now i bought 5.1 onkyo receiver,elite pioneer central speaker and two infinity bookshelf speaker. So i am using this jvc system as add on to my new purchase!

+3157,2,A good idea that needs to be perfected,"I have to agree with many of the other reviewers. This was a costly item that I was so excited to finally have a reason to give to my son (reward for finally giving up pacifier at 2 1/2). However, Cranky's ""head"" does constantly fall off and there is no way to secure it more premanently. I am strongly considering returning it to the store to avoid the inevitable frustration. It is a really great idea and can help with fine motor skills if it were jsut made a bit better. My son is very bright for his age and engineers a lot of the layouts for his Thomas set, but I do not think any child under the age of four will be able to operate this toy with perfection."

It's written in simple steps. You can choose any one at a time until you're ready for the next. There is not too much new under the sun but this book documents the latest in simple terms.Sandra Wilkes"

+3163,1,"I loved ""Bees"" but...","I loved ""Bees,"" but this storyline was *all* over the place. The characters were unrealistic. The use of mermaid lore was corny and haphazard. The prose was trite. At times the descriptions of the ocean and the landscape were so cheesy it make me wince. I didn't like the content of the story -- the ending was a HUGE disappointment -- but content aside, the entire reading experience was unejoyable for me. I felt like Monk Kidd phoned this one in."
+3164,2,It'll never go out of date,"I was at the Foreign Language Bookstore on Yanan Road here in Hangzhou when I saw this classic on the shelf. Would you believe I'd never read it? We read some Bradbury in school about 25 or 30 years ago, and he didn't make much of an impression on me. I can't remember why. But knowing the fault could've been mine, I gave him another shot. Books are cheap here, and hey, it's famous, right?Well, folks, it's famous for a damn good reason. Many, in fact. Fifty years old, and it is perhaps more relevant than ever. But so what? Is it good writing? Does it entertain? Does it have real characters? Is it more than just an oh-so-correct theme dressed up as a novel? Oh, yes it is! It's absolutely fantastic and I just plain can't recommend it enough.If you love sci-fi, great. If not, it doesn't matter. I can say ""transcends the genre"" with a straight face. Yes I can. I'll be reading this one again, folks. I didn't write it and I'm just sick with jealousy about it, okay?"

+3166,2,Good...also predictable,"Good rehash of Madonna murders. A serial killer is murdering new mothers and their infant sons, and it's up to detectives to catch them.The writer brings in a figure from the past; this person enriches the storyline tenfold.The characters are a bit canned, and the plot is predictable. It becomes apparent early on that the good guys will win, and a love story is busy hatching behind the scenes (one which you can see coming a mile away).The end left me with questions. The killer obviously mistook one of the main characters for something/someone he was not, and I seriously expected there to be a part two. I felt like many things, including a twice-adopted child, led up to the idea that he secretly belonged to the main character, but the ideas behind that were never developed.In all, a good read."
+3167,2,"Quick-Grip, good product","It was a fast delivery and the grip was as indicated, except for one thing. The 546 grip is supposed to give 150 lbs of pressure.

Picks up the left over water so that the carpet can completely dry very quickly.3.

+3171,1,Disappointing.....,"Although I did enjoy this book more than 'Roses Are Red', I am diappointed in the path that Patterson's Alex Cross novels have taken. Each novel in the series since 'Cat and Mouse' has involved less police work and very little suspense. At several points in Violets are Blue, I found myself feeling as though I had read this all before - Cross asking himself questions about the killers, Cross yearning for his current partner, Cross yearning for his former partners from previous books, Cross feeling guilty for not being with his children, etc. Where is the suspense? The police work?? In Violets are Blue, Cross did nothing to catch the vampires or the Mastermind - the police find the vampires on a tip from a journalist, and Cross stumbles across the Mastermind after ""having a feeling"" - please. I hope Patterson has some better ideas for the next Cross novel."

They have survived terrible hurricanes, yet they are now threatened by the unyielding sea itself. The stories in Nags Headers capture myriad slices of history, from settlement before the Civil War, to a luncheon hosted for President Franklin Roosevelt, to modern day efforts to preserve the cottages' historical legacy. Of special interest is an interview with Virginia Hall, the 100-year-old survivor of a 1933 hurricane. Warm and picturesque, Nags Headers makes past years come alive."
+3173,1,Not what it advertised,"I bought this because it stated it would accommodate ""SD"" memory cards. It turned out that it did not."
+3174,1,Watch out - very poor quality VHS dub!,"This review is not about the film, ""Last Year at Marienbad"", which I consider a classic, but rather the horrible technical quality of this tape.I ordered the VHS version of ""Marienbad"" because the DVD is evidently out of print, and the cheapest DVD price on Amazon is currently about $300 (!)I wouldn't mind it if this tape was merely VHS quality, but it's not -- it's so horrible as to be almost unwatchable. It looks like a bootleg copy made with cheap equipment by people who have no idea what they're doing and no concern about quality.The beginning of the film has out-of-synch, snowy, grainy images which keep fading in and out, making it impossible to tell what's going on. Later, the quality ""improves"", but is still worse than a VHS dub made on home equipment.Buyer beware -- you get what you pay for!"
+3175,2,A movie worth watching.,"A movie worth watching, it was a little much for young children. It did have a good story line it shows what is important in a person's life. I highly recommend it to teen children and their parents"
+3176,1,Cute but....,"The cards are cute but.. We are in the pecan business and the ""squirrel"" looks like to us to be a chipmonk. I personal collect squirrels and it doesn't look like any I have from all over the world. Also the card picture isn't done well around the edges. And ther are 10 cards in a box, I had to buy them to find out. Lori"
+3177,1,Made for TV and should have stayed there.,"Trite made-for-TV movie with Victoria Principal as a woman trying to be a perfect housewife. After her father-in-law tires to rape her, her husband begins to question the mental state of his wife. With the help of his father he finds a doctor willing to medicate her into submission and into a mental hospital. Only after some horrific experiences does he being to realize the truth of what he has done to the woman he loves.As TV movies go this was below average. The plot was choppy and slow moving. And their contempt for the mental health system is so obvious you have to think the screenwriter was trying to get back as his shrink does. If this really based on a true story then there should have been some epilogue to cover what happened to the snake pit the lead was condemned to."
+3178,2,Works great,Definitely love having the Brita pitcher. Cuts down on empty plastic bottles and the water tastes great. Price was also better than I would pay locally
+3179,1,"Well, we couldn't get Yoko Kanno, so here's Yoko Ono instead","What can I say? This CD is pretty much everything the other Cowboy Bebop CD's aren't. It's pretty much either 1) Take a perfectly good track and ruin it by throwing a lot of drums on top (Vibert) or 2) as far as I can tell, calling a mediocre lifeless piece of electronic pap by the same name as a totally dissimilar but good track off another CD (4 Hero). Either way, the originals far outshine any of the pointless meddling done on this CD.On the does/doesn't include Vitaminless topic, I got this album by mistake. I ordered Vitaminless but what I got was a double CD of this and Vitaminless. I can't imagine a more mistaken pairing."
+3180,2,Mazeppa by Tchaikovsky,"I was quite surprised by the interest I had while watching Mazeppa. I have read in many reviews that Mazeppa was a lesser Tchaikovsky opera. I certainly enjoyed it and without going into all kinds of detail, I would recommend to all of this composers fans that they buy Mazeppa and see (and hear) for themselves how good it really is. The sound and colors, clarity, etc. are all first rate."
+3181,1,big mistake,"this text is filled with so many errors. sentences end in the middle of an explaination leaving you without any conclusion. this text is a required purchase for my landscape construction class at my university and i can't believe the errors have not yet been corrected! without a knowledgeable instructor to correct the many errors, this book will confuse anyone who is trying to learn from it. i do not recommend this book."
+3182,2,Great little program,Window washer is a neat program that frees up alot of space by erasing un-needed stuff on your computer. It is a little to much money for all it does.
+3183,2,Great Summer Read,This series by Alexander McCall Smith is great easy & fun summer reading. Start with book one and see the character's personalities and relationships build.
+3184,1,what a disappointment,"based on all the other reviews for this book, i was really looking forward to reading this. when i got finished reading this all i could ask myself was ""this can't be all there is?"" the writer makes things way more complicated then they need to be, and there isn't anything earth shattering included. the basic stuff, he makes sound so complicated that you need to be a rocket scientist to figure out what he's talking about. this book contains information for the intermediate bowler, but he or she better have an iq of 200 to figure it out.save yourself some money, go bowl a few games and actually work on things that you need to fix. you know what they are. it will be a better use of your time and money."
+3185,1,Best song missing...poopie,The one song I wanted is not on this disc....the best song in the whole movie....the tango song ....that really stinks
+3186,2,almost perfect,"I have been using this style of journal for the last 3 years. I love it, there is room for many books, great way of keeping up with what I've read. My only complaint is the elastic band used to keep the book closed. Mine snapped after a couple of weeks of (gentle) use. Other than that, I have no complaints. =]"
+3187,1,Skip the sound & buy chunky puzzles!,"I'm a big fan of Melissa & Doug toys & puzzles, but this sound puzzle was a major let down. First of all you don't have to put the correct vehicle puzzle piece in the correct spot to make the sound. So really the sound aspect of this toy is not there for teaching; just annoying the parents with the awful sounds. Secondly, I can walk by the darn puzzle and the sounds go off due to the sensors, so quality is lacking. It would be a much better puzzle without the sound, so I'll probably take the batteries out. Stick with the chunky puzzlesMelissa & Doug Vehicles Chunky Wooden Puzzleand save $ and sanity."

I threw this carcass into my bunny's hutch and the horror in his eyes will stay with me always.It's hollowed out insides do actually make a nice snug bed for my hamster though, hence the extra star."
+3191,1,Sorry but the lady's voice sux,"Listening to the album i really loved songs like ""Best Friends"", and ""So many thing"" and some others but some songs reminded me of Jackson 5, as strange is it may seem. The lady's voice reminds me of Micheal Jackson's voice when he was a kid, u can hear that in ""What U gonna do""... If u like the voice alot i propose u buy the album cuz then u'll like it alot... BUT if u think the voice is bad... then buy something else.. don't waiste u'r money on this... buy Case or Tank"
+3192,2,The most complete book on this subject I have seen,As an Amature rod builder I was looking for somthing different to distinguish my work. This book taught me how to do some of the most difficult wraps.
+3193,2,Good product,"Good product, it does need a few things to be up to date. But I really enjoy using it for my every day reading. It it so convenient!"
+3194,1,bored to tears,I'm just amazed so many people gave it a good review. I had to force myself to finish it.
+3195,2,Fast and Timely,The book arrived in great condition and in a very timely manner. I would purchase from this seller in the future.
+3196,2,Very convenient for road trips,"Love this power supply! It's compact, light and very easy to use. It has been a life saver (job-saver?) for road trips that have gone a little long. The compact size and relatively long cord make it easy to place nearly anywhere in the car without taking up valuable foot space or cargo room."
+3197,2,Smart and Sexy,"Derailed is a very smart and sexy thriller. Clive Owen and Jennifer Aniston have never been better than here, and the chemistry between them is just fantastic. There are a lot of twists that will catch you by surprise."

+3202,2,Amazing!,"I bought this watch as a reward for ten years in my company, I decided I wanted a watch that I could really love so for a few hundred bucks.Considered Seiko first, then came across this one. I was captivated by the photos and really liked the original design and clarity of the face. In truth I may never use the slide rule but bought it for its looks.Needless to say that It looks better than the photos, and was a great price, particularly compared to buying it in Australia. I would recommend this watch to anyone looking for a classy looking watch at an affordable price."
+3203,1,Not what is looks like,The picture on the front is not at all what the movie is about you only get to see Margaret for about four minutes in the whole film.
+3204,1,Not for the young,"After reading all the WONDERFUL reviews about this movie, I purchased it for my family. My seven year old, along with my wife and myself sat down to watch a this great movie.We saw creatures that were quite disturbing in their features.A little girl's mother gets killed.Her daddy gets killed.Her brother gets killed.All on screen.I would keep it away from those children who are sensitive, those who have experienced death in families, and any child under 8."
+3205,2,I wasn't sure what to expect but it's become a favorite,"CD for me to play in the car, while working around the house or surfing the web. Before I bought the CD I wasn't familiar with any of the songs except for the show's theme; I ended up liking every song on the CD, and it's introduced me to some groups I hadn't heard of before. Favorites from this one include ""Strong,"" ""I Quit,"" and ""Already Met You."" This soundtrack has the same wit and humor that makes the show such a wonderful experience."
+3206,1,CONAIR DELUXE THERMAL SPA BATH MAT,"Mat was on time, But Not as Expected. I thought Thermal ment Heated Air Bubble from the Mat,& Plus The Mat Will Not Stick to Bath Tub Floor Surface. Realy thought The Thermal Bath Mat was a good BUY:"

Micheal Vartan, what can I say? You are a beautiful man and a rising star...you are versatile and acting just comes naturally too you...Loved the movie!"
+3208,1,Doesn't work with Leopard,"After I upgraded my Mac Pro to OS 1.5, I also upgraded Parallels Desktop to Version 3.0. It is a complete disaster. Unlike before the upgrades, Parallels Desktop now runs Windows very slow and jerky. Many programs won't start, including programs as basic and essential as Microsoft Office. Some other programs work in a sort of hobbled mode, with some features responding and others not. One improvement is that the program allows you to use USB devices as soon as you plug them in, without reconfiguring anything. However, sound input from USB devices suffers static and interruptions. After the upgrade, Parallels Desktop even refused to allow access to the contents of a CD. Basically, it's as bad as having Virtual PC back!No, it's even weirder. If I try to insert a CD with Parallels Desktop running, the CD tray opens and immediately shuts. I have to insert disks before I've launched Parallels and then quit Parallels in order to remove them."
+3209,2,Very Informative!,"My sister-in-law sent me this book when I was pregnant with my first child 28 years ago. I read and used this book through the pregnancies and infancies of both of my children. It proved to be a great help for me. I was 18 and uninformed about many things relating to breastfeeding. This book was a godsend! Breastfeeding is wonderful and I encouraged all my friends and family to try. The feeling is undescribable. Needless to say I no longer need the book, but I loaned my copy and it was never returned. I ordered two, one for a friend's daughter and one for me. If I ever get to be a grandmother I will give it to my daughter-in-law or daughter."
+3210,1,Drive failed after one week,"I just ordered this and after one week got a ""USB Device Not Recognized"" error, same as another user reported above. Drive will not work on any computer. It has a lot of nice features but reliability is crucial in a product like this."
+3211,2,Not Quite As Good As Country Grammar,"This is a very good CD. Not as good as his debut album ""Country Grammar"" was. This album almost should be considered an R&B; album not a Rap album. This album lacks the catchy rhymes the songs ""Country Grammar"" and ""E.I."" had in the first album. Those two songs made you want to rap along with Nelly. There aren't many catch rhymes in this album. But ""Nellyville"" has many good songs. ""Nellyville"", ""Hot In Herre"", ""Pimp Juice"", ""Air Force Ones"", ""On The Grind"", ""Dilemma"", ""Splurge"", ""Roc The Mic Remix"", ""CG 2"", and ""Say Now"" are all must listens.I actually look forward to Murphy Lee rapping then Nelly because Lee posesses the catchy rhymes on the album Nelly lacks. His accent makes it enjoyable to listen to him too.Pick up this album, though it may not be great, it's still a good album."
+3212,1,I was not please at all!,"All of the reviews I read I thought what a great deal. I purchased 12 batteries ofPowerex AA 2700mAh NiMH Rechargeable Batteries w/holder- 4 Batteries Per Packthese plus the charger and I was greatly disappointed in both. Did not get the the charge lenth or power out put. I read the booklet and under stood how this system works. I found that Harbor frieght has better batteries, and do last longer and cheaper. thank you for read of this."
+3213,2,Understanding Men,This book really helped me understand the men in my church and outside of my church. I have long wondered why so many of my male friends find church so boring and irrelevant. This book helped answer some of those questions. A good read.
+3214,2,Great for relaxation and for learning Mindfulness Meditation,"Carolyn's CD's have been a huge help to me in learning how to calm my central nervous system and relax. Whether I'm trying to fall asleep at night, go back to sleep after waking up in the night or need to get centered and calm during the day she helps alot.This CD is a great introduction to Mindfulness meditation. I'm at the begining of learning the concepts of Mindfulness meditaion and have found this CD very helpful. I also have purchased Carloyn's Relax into Restful Sleep CD and her Relaxation Body Scan CD. The sleep cd has been a huge help for trouble going to sleep and staying asleep. Her soothing voice really does help me relax and fall asleep. The Relaxation Body Scan CD helps me to relax and it also includes a guided imagery exercise which is wonderfully helpful as well.Carolyn is a talented healer, I'm so glad I found her!"
+3215,2,Flippin` Amazing,"If you love electronic music and desire an innovative new treasure, Polmo Polpo's The Science of Breath is essential. Here is gorgeously rich ambience beyond comparison. Rottura and Riva are the most stunning spots in this aural, deep-sea thicket brimming with diamonds. Each song spins subtle yet deep ambient, melodic rhythms and textures. Sandro Perri possesses incredible talent, and it clearly shines on this release. New ethereal tethers have been struck here in ways that throb alongside soul and spirit - something most new music falls desperately short of. Truly numinous, I cannot praise this work highly enough. Excellent."
+3216,1,An angry book but how can you not be angry?,I read this book with mounting anger it exposes the many issues of aid today. Another good reading is provided by books on the same subject matter may be with less anger but not less disgust and sense of helplessness. 'U.N. a Cosa Nostra'.U.N. a Cosa Nostra: The workings of an organization 'helping' the poorest of the world (Volume 1)
+3217,1,Disappointing,"The analysis of the housing bubble in this book does not go beyond what is found in the general press. Save your money! We were looking for regional analysis of the housing bubble, likely scenarios as to how the housing bubble will correct, and how the correction will effect different housing segments (condos, started home, high end properties, etc.)."
+3218,2,Great price,I'm pleased by the packaging and the scent seems to be the original. Great price for that size.I would def buy this again and also recommend to others.
+3219,2,Great belt,This belt looks good and holds up. I use it as my camping hiking belt and the belt to attach my web belt. No complaints good looking well made belt.
+3220,2,Just as good as the expensive ones,"I bought this shopping cart cover because it was cheaper than the other name brands out there that was $45! It works just as well. The only little complaint is that the sides are not elastic or secure onto the shopping cart so sometimes it flips up. Often times it's just fine and works very well! There's two little side pockets, but don't expect to put too much in it. It will only fit a small bottle."
+3221,2,Mother Earth and Father Sky.,"S.D. Nelson shares the wonder of the prairie and the Native American peoples. The importance of family is the heart of this story. The grandmother guides her grandchildren home when they are lost. The children learn that they are part of their family, the earth and the sky. The art work is outstanding and I look forward to more books by S.D. Nelson. Gift Horse is another of his excellent books."
+3222,2,World Cafe,"If you are serious about hosting a cafe, this is essential reading especially for the variety of applications and the boost in confidence one gets with a fuzzy or ""touchy feely"" process."
+3223,1,VERY DISAPPOINTED,"If this had been the first Eva Cassidy album I purchased, I would never have bought another and would have missed knowing one of the most marvelous voices in music. The songs here are awful, and the production is very artificial. This album is a disservice to Eva Cassidy. I listened twice and then threw it away. Fortunately, I can go back to other Eva Cassidy albums which I play over and over."
+3224,1,Irritating,"While I hate to write anything negative, this book was irritating intellectually and spiritually. The morals of the story are well known ideals--work hard, don't play the victim, you reap what you sow, etc. If you are pagan, you may find this a little disturbing, as with the usage of an evil black-toothed witch named Morganna.Honestly, I felt like I just read a children's fable rather than a business/leadership book."
+3225,2,Great product at a nominal price,"Great transaction, product is of very high quality selling at a nominal price. I am not sure why other companies are selling this product at an exorbitant price. Overall transaction was very smooth, super quick shipping process.Product worked perfectly with Comcast HD Reciever and Toshiba DVD player connected with a Sharp 42inch HDTV. Both video and audio performance are incredible.I will recommend this product to anyone anytime."
+3226,2,For kids or not?,"If you love golf, you can't go wrong with this title. Very realistic golf. Very beautiful golf. Did I mention this is a golf game? Unfortunately I do not like golf. However, at least I can recognize a decent game. This is truly a decent game. Not great, but not terrible.Bottom line: Is it fun? yes, if you love golf. Will I keep it? Nope. YOu have to love golf to do that. Is it for kids? Nope. Too slow, and too many controls."
+3227,1,Not for kids,This book is definitely not for young kids. I love reading to my 3 year old and he loves to listen to stories. The first few pages were like the traditional 3 pigs story and then it got wierd. It's not a story. The illustrations were great but it's more for adults than children. I was dissapointed after reading the other rave reviews.
+3228,2,great voice!,"OK, where has Daniel Rodriguez been hiding all this time? We just bought ""The Spirit of America"" and he has an absolutely marvelous voice. Reminds me so much of Mario Lanza, who I feel was the greatest tenor of his time. I am anxious to download other albums of his - I have to hear more. joyce from Texas"
+3229,2,Good Quality parts,I recently bought this part for my 98 Suzuki. parts come with 1 piston seal and 1 piston boot. and a bleed valve cap. installation was easy. Be care full not to damage or stress the seal and the boot.
+3230,1,Slow read,"This book read like a bunch of newspaper clippings from a variety of papers published at that time. The author puts forward several theories of who killed Mary Rogers, but they all have holes in them. Best part of the book was about Poe's womanizing and alcoholism."
+3231,1,Low video quality,"I used the cable to connect a computer monitor to a tower in a different room, the cable is functional for basic use, but has mild to severe red ""static."" I wouldn't recommend this cable for anything that requires quality video signals."
+3232,2,A good review,"A good review of the basic issues, but left me wanting a little more substance and a little less psychoanalysis."
+3233,2,Excellent interface - also talks to Trek ACH Digital,"Purchased this device to synch with my new Garmin 310XT. Turns out the ANT communications simultaneously works with my Trek bike computer - which is sweet! So, I could use my Trek HR monitor strap and get rid of the temperamental Trek sensors (that wouldn't talk to my Garmin). The beauty is that I can monitor cadence, speed and HR on the Garmin and the Trek simultaneously. That means faster transitions from swim to bike to run since I can just keep the Garmin on my wrist.Nice to get unexpected ""features"" when buying a product."
+3234,1,sucks,I will never order from Amazon again. I can not even test this item because Amazon didn't bother to tell me the Conair Pro Color Accent Kit was out of stock before sending me the refill pack. So Amazon sent me an email saying they canceled the order. So now I have a refill kit and no way of using it. GREAT way to do business.
+3235,1,Incorrect programming,The approach to string pointers in this book is wrong. I have a working understanding of C and after reading the first 102 pages of this book I can tell you not to get this. It will set you back instead of helping you write solutions.I wonder how many of the examples in this book were actually compiled to see if they work. I know the one on page 102 definitely was not. This will not help you if you are trying to learn.
+3236,2,"Nice sheets, but not quite as soft as I thought they'd be.","Only includes 2 king size pillow cases. If you have standard size pillows also, you have to buy them separately."
+3237,1,BEEEP--BEEEEP-BEEEP-BEEEP-BEEEP your XXX,"Every key you hit on this thing triggers a loud beep. They have to be kidding with all the beeping this thing does...and to what end????? There is no added value to the beeping.As a business phone, this phone is useless. Try taking someone off mute...the beeping sound makes them think you are recording the call...not a very nice image to create in the minds of your colleagues and customers.If you have busy phone days like I do, you may need to juggle a few calls at once...2nd line...cell phone.... you may not want the person with whom you are speaking, to know that you have muted the phone on your end...this phone gives you no choice, when you drop off and come back on, it will beeeeep you till you fling it out the window. This will surely drive you nuts if you're a business user.It would be soooo simple to make this a user programmable option.Don't bother with this phone."
+3238,2,Interesting point of view - but let's not underrate education,"Much of the information in the book is interesting, and I believe valuable for adults who are able to understand that alternatives exist to the traditional career path. A college education, however, is still a solid foundation not to be missed when planning one's career. I would want to be sure that young, impressionable minds were not detracted from this fact, when exploring all options available.-- RuthAnn"
+3239,1,Terrible movie,"I rented this movie with the highest of expectations due to the things I had heard talked about it, like that it was funny and romantic and had wonderful scenery. What a disappointing story!The story had no sense of direction. It seemed badly glued together, as if the scriptwriters were saying, ""we'll make her a divorced woman...and then we'll make her go on a gay tour...and oh wait, let's make her have no morals and have sex with a man she hasn't known for even one day...and lets make her flirt with the real estate man."" All in all, the story turned out to be pretty stupid with nothing to admire in the main character."
+3240,2,Raises fascinating questions about love,"This is a marvelous work of research on a society with fundamentally alternative traditions of family and sexual life. Cai Hua's study of Na culture (otherwise called the Moso) raises universal questions for our assumptions about love, marriage, and community.--author of A Galaxy of Immortal Women: The Yin Side of Chinese Civilization"
+3241,2,Great Workout & (a good) Ouch Ouch Ouch for floorwork!,"This video starts out slow, but then takes you further than other Leslie Sansone videos. The only ones that really give me a good workout are 2 Mile Walk and 1,2,3 Mile Super Fat Burner and the later starts out slow, too. That is great if I don't have the energy at first, because you will get some energy that carriers on long after the workout. I do the jogging, but there are times I don't and do the walking alternative. The music is upbeat and everyone looks great, which really helps inspire me. At the end of the workout there are outer thigh and glute floorwork. I was surprised on how effective it was for a Leslie Sansone video, and I have done some Firm tapes to know what a challenge is. There is also abdominal work at the end, too."
+3242,1,Damaged my face - took 4 months for my skin to go back to original condition,"This damaged my skin and I had to get treatment after using it.I used the Dermanew kit with the provided lotion on the lower part of my face where I have more blackheads. Within two days of using it the pores on my chin became very hard and formed bumps all over. The bumps remained on my face for about 3 months. I had a blanket of small hard balls all over the lower part of my face. Even if I tried my typical black head removal practices of steaming the area, exfoliation, or pressure, nothing would come out. Eventually I had to get some of the blackheads professionally cut out because they would not come out - my skin encased them. After about four months, my face's elasticity returned and my skin is back to normal.Hope that helps! I'm staying with chemical-free products from now on!"
+3243,2,This is the most popular video in the house,Mary Poppins has been the most watched video in the house since I purchased it months ago. The children just love the songs and the dancing. They often get bruised from being so enthusiastic in their dancing. Excellent video for kids.
+3244,2,My new favorite book - Mere Christianity,"C.S. Lewis has a great talent of taking complicated subjects and making them so simple that you almost think yourself stupid. Lewis shows a clear picture of what christians really believe in this book, and with fitting analogies and profound applications, he shows how being a christian doesn't have to be a giant leap of faith into the dark, but can be a firm choice in believing that what the Bible says is factual. (Just like believing a witness in court is telling the truth) Lewis takes on subjects ranging from christian morals and why they are so important for christians to explaining the concept of the Trinity of God (yikes! Heavy subject!). Whether you're a Christian who would like to see the reinforcing explanation of the faith, or anyone else who would like an insight into ""mere"" christianity, this book is definately for you."
+3245,1,Not Sassy's best,"We usually love Sassy, but my 6-month old isn't at all interested in this toy. The activities are too close together for her to manipulate and there isn't a good surface to chew on. It's also quite heavy, making it hard for her to hold and play with on her own."
+3246,2,Interesting and well researched account of revolution,"I found this to be an excellent rendition of some rather brutal and violent events. The cast of characters could fill a dozen novels, but they were all real people. The corruption, the revolutions, the mercenaries, the battles the the battles are all detailed in a readable style."
+3247,2,Nora does it again.,"Although this is a departure from her usual style and content, this is a terrific book. Nora has chosen Alaska for the setting and her characters are interesting and compelling. Our hero is a police chief who has a past as a detective in Baltimore where he saw his partner get shot and die. He is faced with a mystery involving a body found by hikers that has been dead for many years. The only complaint I have is Mrs. Robert's apparent rush at the end of the book for closure. The ending is not believable and I have a feeling her publishers asked her to make the book shorter than her original version due to the uneveness of the ending."
+3248,1,the lowest point of the pop industry,[...] She is an entertainer! The problem is: you can't stop the stupid kids for buying the celebrate pop crappy albums today. Who still recognize this maid in the next 10 years? it is the same case like britney spears and spice girls!PS: pls throw away the cd from your window or burn it to the hot ash volcanos!!!Thank god for america's future pop artists like this one!
+3249,1,Disappointing after The Unlikely Spy,"The Unlikely Spy was an exceptional thriller. I felt I had found a major new author of spy thrillers (I haven't given up on him yet) and waited eagerly for his next book. Unfortunately, it turned out to be a stinker. I must say, though, that despite the incredibility of the plot and the cardboard characters, his ability to describe places and to build atmosphere came through brilliantly from time to time. For my own sake, I hope his third book is at least half as good as his first book. I'll be waiting. END"
+3250,2,Excellent Book!,"The book really has two distinct sections to it, and both are good in their own way. The first part details the author's trip to a Siberian work camp. It is vivid in detail, and is an amazing account of the interactions with Russian captors and their techniques to try to ""break"" the spirit of their captives.The second part of the book recounts the escape by the author and a small group of men from the camp, and their journey to freedom. Although it isn't as vivid as the first part of the journey, it does give the reader a sense of the drudgery and hopelessness that they encountered on the trip, and also gave me a real feel for the varying emotions they went through. For those people who say that there could never be this much luck, or that humans couldn't accomplish what the author wrote about, I say that you never know what you can accomplish until you are placed in that situation."
+3251,1,"Great Brand, Bad Item, Super Amazon Service","I can vouch for George Foreman quality. This grill replaced my original after 9 years of use. However, this particular unit proved defective. After several uses the first three months, it suddenly stopped working when plugged in. I returned the item to Amazon and was refunded the entire amount quickly. I have since purchased a larger Foreman grill, no problems to report. An aside to fats-conscious but bacon lover moms: the Foreman grill does an amazing job making crisp bacon while burning off much of its fat. Makes the juiciest burgers I've ever cooked, too."
+3252,1,The Shield - Complete 7 series set,"I purchased this because I am a big fan of Michael Chiklis and the series. I was very disappointed after opening and taking out the 1st disc, it was scratched and had very small, hard particals stuck to the video side. I checked the rest of the disc's and about two thirds of the disc's were in the same shape. A few of them had very deep gouges. Again, I can't tell you how disappointed I was. I returned the set for a refund but I will not buy another set like this. Maybe if Sony changes the packaging I will consider repurchasing it again.I am pretty sure that the way this is packaged and presented is why the disc's were damaged."
+3253,2,A great addition to my collection,"This book is one of my favorite Christmas presents! I've been interested in Chinese language for a number of years, and particularly in the written language and its history. I'm certain my Chinese friends have gotten tired of my questions: How did this evolve, when did this enter the language, why, etc. Now I own a book that will help me solve some of the puzzles. Very interesting, accurate, and fun to explore."
+3254,1,Boring...,"I purchased this movie on the fact that some of the reviews were fairly positive about it. Well, I don't know what those people were thinking, but this is a very bad movie. It is boring, has nothing to tell, poorly made even by the standards of the time it was made in. Sorry. Waste of money."
+3255,2,The Desperate Crossing: The Untold Story of the Mayflower,"I saw this advertised on TV, then bought it for our elementary school library. This is an excellent video, with accuracy in both script and physical setting. Being of Native American heritage, I appreciate the portrayal of their roll in assisting the very survival of the Pilgrims. I highly recommend this for home schools, elementary schools, or to own personally!"
+3256,2,Outstanding response!,"Received within 5 days; outstanding service. Product received exactly as noted on Amazon website. Excellent book for anyone out there who is just getting into EKG interpretation (nursing students, paramedic students, etc.)."

+3259,2,Great book for young adults teens 13-19,"This book has the feeling to get into your mind of what it is mlike to die, what you feel when someone dies. It ios a great book to experince, that is why i like it, it has been the second best book i've ever read."
+3260,2,Incredible,One of the best books I've ever read. Snow Crash is the single most formative cyberpunk novel in the genre. Pepperoni sausage exhaust fumes forever.

+3262,2,informative,This is a very informative DVD . I use this in a clinical setting to educate my patients. Anything by NG is always good in my opinion.
+3263,1,SKIP THIS DVD! IT ISN'T WORTH IT!,"Because the Superbit DVD's require so much information, special features are removed. ""The Patriot"" Superbit DVD has ALL the same special features from the Special Edition DVD, except for the entertaining commentary track by Roland Emmerich and Dean Devlin. Skip this DVD. There's even more features on the Single Disc.Movie Grade: A+Special Edition DVD Grade: A+Superbit DVD Edition: F"
+3264,2,a worthwhile insight...,"Having had this book on my bookshelf for some months,i had decided to take it with me on my 3 day holiday which proved long enough to finish,this story may start off deceivingly simple but be not fooled there is alot to be learned from this book,while some may find the pace a tad slow there is meaning to this book and a suitable ending that answer enough questions that the book will probably have risen,overall i found it insightful into the human psyche relative to the universe,and our general disposition was cleverly depicted,also our protagonist Matthew is no cliche and neither are the devices the plot uses...I have not really delved into the story as i didnt know much when i started and i found myself pleasantly suprised with the reading material...Mr Wyndham definitely deserves the kudos he got for this book although this book may not be for everyone"
+3265,2,Business purchase,"I ordered these for independent adjusters who work for my firm, and they find them indispensable. Because I am not an adjuster, I am unable to evaluate them."
+3266,1,I feel like such a naive fool.,"I bought this soundtrack expecting it to contain the awesome song from the theatrical trailer. You know, the one with the fast paced drum beat and chorus vocals that send shivers down your spine? Well after listening all the way through this CD's 15 tracks, I can tell you it's nowhere to be found. I am beyond depressed at the moment. I suppose this CD might contain some good music, and J.H.Newton is a talented composer, but it will be a LONG time before I am able to listen to it again."
+3267,1,Nice but short life,"The device is nice, it allows to use your ps1 or ps2 controller (which I actually prefer) in the gamecube.The problem is it broke just 3 months after I bought it, so this isn't worth it, buy an original gamecube controller, or another adapter."
+3268,2,The VERY BEST movie series EVER!!!!!!!,"I will not write much because a popular movie series that is as spectacular as the Star Wars Trilogy does not need a review. I bought this special edition from Amazon... BOY!!! I love these movies. Definitely my favorite movie series ever. I put this movie series even over Indiana Jones!Every Star Wars fan should buy the Special Edition. This is after all closer to the vision that Lucas wanted. The special effects are dazzling. I loved the frequent city scan views, the bigger, realer explosions, and just the overall improvement of the colors. My favorite add-in however, is the final scene in ROTJ. The final celebration was MARVELOUS! Mos Heisley, Coruscant, and Cloud City just looked wayyyyy cool! SPECTACULAR MOVIES!!!"
+3269,1,All style but no substance - no joke,"Employing Emerson/Lake/Palmer sound with a touch of Steve Howe guitar, this is a very stylish album. However, after my compulsory five listens, there nothing that compels me to listen again. If there is an underlying joke to this work, I lost interest way before the punch line."
+3270,2,This is what i'm waiting for!!!!,"In Flames and Soilwork are sold out, so my only chance to find another album that blow my mind like Dark Tranqility's ""Character"", is this. This album is solid musicianship throghout. There's no filler here or the commercial flavor like the other two(In Flames, Soilwork), this is great melodic death metal with no complaints!!! There's industrial touches like in ""Character"", but sounds really good. Check this out, you won't regret it."
+3271,1,Can see all the best parts in the trailer,"After seeing the trailer I was expecting a very funny movie about an eccentric vampire family. All the funniest moments can be seen in the trailer and when seen in the context of the actual movie they weren't even that funny. I'm not sure what this movie was striving to be, comedy, horror, social documentary, or what; it just meandered from genre to genre. To give it some credit there were some pretty funny concepts to this movie and I wish the writers capitalized on those more. Then it would have been a pretty damn good movie. But, I feel they over thought it and over reached making it a complicated snooze fest instead."
+3272,1,Avoid This Box Set! Great Songs horrible idea,I ordered this because I love most of Robbie Williams songs and this box set containes 19 chart hits across 19 individual CD singles. What a waste! I think the outer packaging is excellent but who wants to change a cd after every song??I recommend the Asian edition...much better.
+3273,2,Gee Bee,"A very informative book about a very special group of airplanes. Clearly building the replica plane (and debunking a few myths about the original) was a labor of love for the authors, and it shows."
+3274,1,What is this trash,This fake ass rapper album is a huge FLOP!!!! Don't waste your money on this album.
+3275,1,Laura is Lost,"Upon reading other reviews I was surprised, did they see the same movie as I? This David Hamilton movie has NO plot whatsoever and NO dialogue. I like ""artsy"" movies, and those coming of age romps with attractive young women, yet this movie farce was the worst example of both. Instead of ascetic beauty, one gets contrived nonsensical boredom. The ""lolita"" of the movie is average at best, and more of an after thought to plot design, or more aptly lack there of. I highly recommend you pass on this one, I wish I had!"

+3278,2,Great lens to replaced the kit 18-55mm....,"For my photos, this lens is a huge and affordable upgrade. I've been using the 18-55mm kit lens with my Rebel and this lens is a world better.For me:-quick focus-good zoom range for everyday use.It has not left my camera since I received the lens from Amazon."
+3279,2,Love Phillipa Gregory!,"So far, all of Philippa Gregory's books are great reading and informative. Even though they are novels, there is alot of Regency English history in them,which has always fascinated and interested me. Her story's remind me so much of Victoria Holt books!"
+3280,1,Not up to the standards of the original,"While the original film was great and is one of my all-time favcorites, this sequel in no way comes up to the same standards of humor or storyline. In fact, it comes off as a blatant attempt to squeeze a few more dollars off of the original films followers. You don't need to believe me. Try renting it before you put down hard-earned cash on this wannabe..."
+3281,2,Well Worth the $,We love these. We bought one set and loved them so much we orderd another set. Holds up well and great price!
+3282,1,More of Previn's weak Beethoven,"This is a pretty listless performance. I've now heard all of Previn's Beethoven recordings. Not much life except in the 5th and some of the overtures. As far as the 9th, this probably doesn't rank in the top 50 available recordings. Look elsewhere."
+3283,1,DO NOT BUY!,"I bought 2, being stupid and thinking they would surely fit my standard-size, 7"", Coby DVD players. They did not. When I went to return them, they said that, in addition to paying the return shipping, I had to pay a $15 ""restocking fee""! So, $25 to return 2 items totalling $33?! Also, the return policy is very tricky and time-consuming, akin to those ""we hope you get so frustrated you never fill it out"" rebate cards.As to the product, I ordered 2 of the same thing, and 1 is differnent than the other! They are shoddy and have a lot of different places where the craftmanship seems poor.Overall, below average product from a company with horrible service- if you're going to roll the dice on the low price, good luck!"
+3284,1,"Why'd you do it to 'em, 'Clef?","Wyclef took a skilled lyricist' album and covered it up with the worst beats he could've thought up. Buckingham Place and Scond Round KO are tight. The other wack beat kill my patience, and everyone will miss many of his sharp, thoughful metaphors because of it. He needs to hook up with someone that knows how to link a hard beat with razor-sharp lyrics. His words are on point, but it's hard to sift through those garbage beats on this LP."
+3285,1,Lack of a backbone,"As with most extremists, Ann has regretfully ignored the common people and will not supply anyone with her email address. In an online poll of political websites, the only email addresses published were those of the leftist authors who welcome and encourage discussion and debate.The book was horrible, her information on McCarthy ignorant of facts. Ann's research for this book was her life while she was in puberty, clearly clouding her view of the world.Ms. Coulter, what man beat you? Who caused this massive amount of hate and vituperance? How can you continue to slander everyone with a different view?I am genuinly curious how Ms. Coulter feels about Senator John McCain and his centrist views while calling himself a Republican, but unfortunately I can't ask her"
+3286,1,"Two parts ""Mission Impossible""; one part ""Naked Gun""","..and not not in a good way.2.5 stars.This is a pretty cookie-cutter version of a ""Mission Impossible"" movie except that it obviously doesn't take itself too seriously (at least, I hope that was the intent). The plot is silly and the story doesn't flow well. I'm not sure what Diaz is there for other than eye-candy (the helpless-dumb-blond-thing gets old pretty quickly). If you're looking for mindless distraction, then KaD is mildly entertaining.Not recommended."
+3287,1,Belkin router,Only the older Broadcom based ones are worth dealing with since you can put custom firmware on them.
+3288,2,Another great addition to the Cross series,"I just finished Roses are Red...what a book! Patterson once again gives us more about Alex Cross, his family and his woes. It is nice to see the inner workings of Alex Cross - to find out more about what makes him tick.Alex has been asked to help investigate bank robberies that are leaving everyone baffled. Each bank robbery is more violent than the next. Alex works with a new FBI partner, Betsy. She is a strong character and quickly Alex recognizes her talents. The book has a lot of twists and the ending provides quite a cliff hanger. I can wait until I read Violets are Blue."
+3289,1,I Almost Didn't Bother To Finish This!,"Even though PJ Gray describes herself as ""fiercely protective"" of her son, she leaves him alone in the house at night with someone she's sure is a psychotic killer because ""so far Columbus has only killed adults."" So that's okay, I guess. Columbus manages to murder someone by starting a rumor that the person is a drug runner: He starts the rumor, then sits back knowing, somehow, that car-jackers are bound to attack and kill that person; he even somehow knows what night this will happen. I think there were a couple pages of explanation missing here. I got the feeling at times that during editing big blocks of information or background got cut out. Sorry to be so negative! I did like the characters of PJ and Schultz. I liked the way PJ bluntly acknowledges to herself that she wouldn't mind getting some sex. She's no priss. However, I was getting so fed up with the plot holes that I had to force myself to finish it."
+3290,1,Works great but breaks easily,"I purchased two pair of these shoe trees about a month ago. On the plus side, they are made from a pleasant looking and smelling cedar that will absorb moisture and odor. They are also easy to put in shoes and adjust to the general shape of the shoes. The one down side I've found thus far is that one of my shoe trees split completely on the handle, rendering the tree useless. This happened after less than a month of use. It may be a better idea to look at a higher quality product. Spending less for a product that breaks quickly is not money well spent. On the plus side, one pair of my trees is still usable."
+3291,2,The Best,This is an awesome item. The headset is very light weight and the unit clips nicely on you. Very functional & excellent clarity. A must buy!
+3292,1,THIS PRODUCT IS NO GOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!! DON NOT BUY IT!!!!!!!!!!,"If only I could give a rating of -10. This company and this product are horrible. When the device works properly, it's fine. But that is usually not the case. Mine has completely stopped playing MP3 files. I have had them replace it twice and have had the same exact problem every time. They refuse to send a new one albeit of the situation or refund my money. Hence, they have forced me to go to everyplace it has sold and give them a bad review. If you want an example of bad business practices, don't look any further. SIMPLY HORRIBLE...."
+3293,1,Very cheap and flimsy.,This flag is very cheap in construction. Flag itself is very thin and could never be used on a moving vehicle as it would surely shred very quickly. The field of my flag also has a stain on it.
+3294,1,pile of trash,"vicki stringer thinks she is all that, but she ain't got nothing but tall tales to tell. her stories are not only boring, they lack the authenticity and come off as trite and diva-ish. take my advise: you don't need to bother with this trash."
+3295,2,Great Toy,"My 8 month old son loves this toy. Of course he took the ball off the top, but to my surprise he knows that it should go back and tries to put it there. He loves to make the wheels go around, either by pushing it or picking it up and turning them by hand. Also, his is a great toy for a parent to play with baby, it will travel away and baby will crawl to it. Highly recommend this as well as the Firetruck.baby, car, toy, truck"
+3296,2,"Terrific Music, Terrific Guitarist, Terrific Price!","Can't be Beat! 77 minutes worth of some great, neglected 20th Century classics, and the linear notes are by Mr. Williams no less!! Every second here is a gem, and you don't have to play guitar to appreciate these wonders. If you do play, give this one some serious listening, and you'll surely learn some new playing techniques..Among the very best classic guitar values anywhere!!!!"
+3297,2,Julia and Jacques Cooking at Home,"This is a wonderful book, almost as good as watching them cook together! The receipes are of course, excellent, and the format is also very interesting, giving their slightly different receipes and/or ideas in how to either prepare a food or present it. It is as enjoyable to read as a good novel. I ordered the book after watching them on TV. It is always obvious that they had fun cooking together. Also, as Julia became a bit frailer, he was subtly helping her and it was such a picture of friendship. The book itself is beautiful, a pleasure to own and handle. Thanks to the publisher.I went right to the Amazon site and ordered the book. It arrived in very good time, faster than I expected."

+3300,1,Bad movie,"I watched this movie on New Years Eve and thought it was just terrible. It was a boring, stupid, colorless movie. It could have been a good movie given the actors it had but was so disappointing."
+3301,2,Invaluable Reference Work,"This book belongs in every occultist's library. Cunningham has left no stone unturned in his presentation of correspondences and substitutions. The book consists of several sections, each devoted to a specific topic, i.e., incenses, soaps, oils, brews, etc. Each section is alphabetically subdivided by purpose, astrological and plantetary influences, etc. Included for the adventurous are some recipies from older grimoires, along with safer modern blends aimed at the same goals. The incense chapter alone is worth the price of the book. After reading it, you'll never be dependent upon headshop joss sticks and cones again. Also included is a listing of sources for materials. In short, this book is an invaluable reference work, and belongs on every practicing magicians's bookshelf."
+3302,2,excellent game for girls,I have a daughter 8 years old. I loved my daughter very much. On her summer holidays I bought for her some Wii games. This game she loves very much. She passed this game 5 times and she will play again. the magic game did his magic with my daughter :)
+3303,2,Great product,"The gas mask came 2 days sooner than expected...which was great...i was looking forward to it...it is a very interesting piece and i love it.it was humid and i wore it for two hours outside and it did not fog up...very good gas mask...the filter was expired but i didn't much care for that as im not going to war anytime soon and don't expect to use it for that purpose...love this product and i definitely recommend it for anyone, plus it makes you look like a BAMF!"
+3304,1,What a revolting development!,"Too bad Kurosawa's last movie is such a schlocky treacle-fest. I understand that he wanted to write a kind of final love letter to his fans and admirers and students, but this one went just a bit too far for my tastes. Kurosawa is not a stranger to saccharine sentimentality (witness REDBEARD), but this one went a step too far in its Pollyanna-like optimism. Faced with the tragedy of WWII (briefly covered and hardly mentioned), the literature professor who is the film's protagonist rises above his setbacks with his steadfast stoicism and optimism and the help of his loving male students who shower him with admiration, gifts, land, and a new home. I had thought Spielberg the master of the cloyingly sweet movie, but it looks as if he learned his nausea-inducing licks from the old master himself. If you like hard-edged reality, or are a fan of Kurosawa's starkly delineated films of old, avoid MADDADAYO. Can't wait to get this one out of my library."
+3305,2,Great Opera and recording from Kirov,Boris Godunov is a terrific opera even without a dominate female lead. Kirov production is first rate.
+3306,1,Works only 5-10 minutes at a time,"This vacuum cleaner is worthless. You can only vacuum one average sized room or perhaps two if you are lucky, before the motor heats up. At that point the spinning bristles at the bottom of the vacuum cleaner stops spinning. Then you have to wait about 15 mins for the motor to cool down before you can use it again.Actually I am writing this review while I am waiting for the motor to cool down. All I did was vacuum my living room and a hall way (about 7 mins worth of vacuuming) and it's already overheated. Hopefully by the time this review is written, it will be cooled down enough for me to vacuum my bedroom.For a small apartment, this would have been an ideal vacuum, since it does pack enough suction power to pick up all the dirt into a very small package. Too bad though about the constant overheating. I wouldn't recommend purchasing this."

+3309,2,Equal Opportunity,"I guess it is a hangover from my own mother, but I tend to prefer comics that do not use a great deal of profanity in their shows. That preference goes out the window where Ned ""Carlos"" Mencia is concerned. Carlos is a foul mouthed, equal opportunity racist. He has an opinion on everyone - and his expletive filled rants are the stuff of legend. Potty mouth aside - Carlos is not afraid to say what the rest of us are thinking. I still wince every time a comic uses awful language. It does not stop me from putting Carlos on if I need to laugh at someone that truly says what they are thinking........"
+3310,2,Pictorial History At Its Best,"If you have the slightest interest in the history of the FDNY, this is the book for you. Yes, there are other good books on the FDNY, but the niche occupied by this book (i.e, badges) is unique. But, it would be a mistake to think the book deals only with badges. Rather, the book uses FDNY badges as the focal point for describing the development of the FDNY as we know it today. The writing is clear, details abound, and the photos are wonderful. In real life, I - like the author of this book - am a health care professional. However, I am a fire buff (originally from Brooklyn, NY), a member of our local Citizens Fire Academy, and have been collecting a variety of fire department memorabilia, including FDNY badges, for some time. For the first time, I have a reference on my shelf that affords me the ability to more vividly appreciate the history, art, lore and romance of fire department antiques."
+3311,2,A Great book for Pottery Collectors and amateur potters,This book can be an inspiration to those of us who aspire to be good potters. It also serves as a collectors guide to the Art Deco pottery that is now so collectable.
+3312,2,Inexpensive Water Heater,"I purchased this unit because it could use (a) my existing venting (b) available natural gas pipe. It certainly met my needs of providing 2.5G of hot water to a shower and a tap. I installed it myself and I am not an experienced plumber or handyman. It is clearly one of the least expensive product on the market.On installation: There are a few minor errors in the instruction that require me to refit the unit. A significant item was the distance from the top to the holes where you hang the unit. It was also little hard to find 3/4"" to 1/2"" adapters at the local plumbing store.Unit; The unit feels a bit cheap -- the out body is made up of thin metal, the control knobs don't exactly fit in the body slots. I can't really blame them as the unit is really inexpensive. I wish someone made better unit with similar specs."
+3313,1,Does not work - defective disc,"Had to return it. No scratches on the disc. But it kept freezing and jumping to random sections. It did this in 3 players, all of which work fine with other discs."
+3314,1,Cheaply made but cute,On of the bugs already broke and though they are colorful they are cheaply made. Wouldn't buy them again.
+3315,1,"Love the movie, hate the picture quality","I'm not going to comment on the movie itself because I'm assuming if you bought the Blu-ray you are already a fan.If I had paid more than $9.99 for this disk I would be upset. The picture quality is no better than my old VHS tape. I have other movies that are just as old or older that have been transferred to Blu-ray with much better success. Buy the Blu-ray version because you like the movie itself, not because you want to see a more eye popping picture."
+3316,1,I hope you like hip-hop music,"Well, this CD is disappointing, to say the least. I really enjoyed Ruben's performances on American Idol, and was looking forward to this CD for months. Now that I have it, I find myself skipping half of the tracks.Sorry 2004 and How Can You Mend A Broken Heart are the best songs. No Ruben, What Is Sexy, and Can I Get Your Attention are simply awful. I feel cheated by this album."
+3317,2,Storage Case,This is a very sturdy product that works well with medium to thin puzzles. Excellent for helping keep puzzles in one place.
+3318,1,A Persistent Part Of American Political Mythos,"The mystery of deep throat has been a persistent part of American political mythos for thirty years. That is exactly how long Bob Woodward held onto the secret of who helped guide him towards the downfall of the Nixon administration. Personally I was never swept up in this mystery so the who's who just didn't matter. What came across as meaningful was the concept of journalistic standards, an idea that has ceased to exist in recent years. Bob Woodward set the standard for keeping the identity of a deep cover informant but no one has lived up to it since."
+3319,1,Very poor quality,I bought a 3-9X40 rubber scope/Ruby lens/Ring (SFR3940R) and it is a waste of money. The scope has a rubber cover applied over the scope. It is practically impossible to get the rings hold the scope without the rubber twisting since it is not actually attached to the scope. The cover was actually loose at some of the seams. I am wondering why I didn't just go to Wal-Mart and buy something that I could examine before purchasing. My advice is not to buy NcStar. The quality is extremely poor.
+3320,1,Do not buy this toy.,Our child also loves this toy but the tractor only lasts for about a week before it starts breaking down. We have brought the tractor back THREE TIMES and have yet to get one that works for longer than a week. It's a real shame that the manufacturer can't make this toy durable enough to last. It breaks our little boys heart every time we have to bring his tractor back to the store. Take my advice and stay away from this product!!!!
+3321,2,"Funny, sexy and well written","""He lies like an eye-witness"" Russian saying. This quote appears on the frontispiece of this enjoyable novel. The opening words of the novel are:"" My name is Stuart, and I remember everything."" So I, dear reader, was sucked in straight away. It's a first person narrative from the point of view of the three main characters (the eternal triangle?) Gillian, Stuart and Oliver. If you are familiar with the Japanese film masterpiece RASHOMON you will be familiar with the premise. This book will make your day a little bit brighter. Delicious and sympathetic humour."
+3322,2,EXCELLENT!!!,"I AM A DANCER. I LIKE ALMOST ALL VARIATIONS OF DANCE. THIS WORKOUT GAVE ME SOMETHING OUT OF THE ORDINARY. WHEN I FIRST VIEWED IT, IT DIDN'T APPEAR TO BE A SUPER HARD WORKOUT SWEATWISE. IT'S NOT HIGH IMPACT , BUT IT IS CERTAINLY HIGH INTENSITY. I AM REALLY ENJOYING THIS. I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS TO ANYONE WHO ENJOYS DANCE."
+3323,2,A Doris Day fan's delight,"An absolute must for fans, a good mixture of musicals, comedy, and her OUTSTANDING performance in the musical drama LOVE ME OR LEAVE ME, you will not be dissapointed with this collection."
+3324,1,Hysterical Romance,"If you are in to ""Bodice Rippers"" this is a good example, and you will probably love in even though it does not take place in the Highlands or on a pritate ship. Hero says I love you in the last 10 pages after brutal treatment which begins with his actually ripping her dress. We'd call this ABUSE. Why should a time period change the facts. Why would he suddenly do a turn around with no real character build up to make you believe it. As for the heroine, the 'oh dear, I'm just a sex slave and I can't do anything about it', is extremely trite even for bodice rippers."
+3325,2,Kick ass!,This game is one of the best online games i have ever played.If your getting this game your going to have to have internet connection to play.Also one player is not that fun at all really it mostly made for playing online. One bad thing is that you need a good graphics card but i have a Radeon 9800 Xt it works perfect. You should denftinely buy it i won all the battle field games.Good Work EA!
+3326,2,Very informative. Packed with detail.,"This talks about the making of the trollies - Tulsa, Sand Springs, Oklahoma City and some other towns. How they were run and why they went out of business. It is designed to give information, not intended to entertain."
+3327,1,Original artist would have been nice.,The sound track was ok. KISS sang their songs. Why did'nt they have the original artist sing the other songs on the sound track?Hope the movie is better then the sound track.
+3328,2,Wonderful Wipes,"We purchased these wipes back in 2007, when my daughter was born. We have used them daily since then, washing them with cloth diapers, and drying them in the dryer. They have just started falling apart and unraveling. I don't think we could reasonable expect something to last longer, with daily use and hard washing. I am quite pleased and am now purchasing more. We use them with water only, and they get the job done. Save tons of money and avoid unnecessary chemicals with these wipes!"
+3329,1,Disappointing and getting predictable,"I eagerly looked forward to reading this novel after having read two other works by Stephen Frey. This one was definitely a disappointment. Frey has also stepped partially away from the financial world with this one and seems to be on somewhat unfamiliar ground.Once again the main characters come from impoverished backgrounds that they prefer to hide - where have we heard that before? David Mitchell is almost a cookie cutter copy of Andrew Falcon and Mace McClain, although a bit more suspicious. At least the ending was a bit different from the Frey formula of the previous two books.I would have given this book 1 star except the last 100 pages or so were pretty gripping."
+3330,2,poofect!!,timely shipping and unbelievable low price leads to a poofect purchase of POOH!! will definitely be a returning customer...thanks much
+3331,1,man bad;woman good,"as short as this book is i would have liked it better if it was a short story..maybe if you are an irish woman living in ireland it will open your eyes to domestic violence..i'm wrong;if you are a woman anywhere this is a book for you..GET HELP! the husband is a nasty dude..i couldn;t relate to this tale..the females in my bookclub,on the other hand felt it should be read by all women..children of abusive dads should also give it a read..i liked doyle's other books and give him high marks for fictionalizing a subject that is below the social radar..great book for reading about domestic abuse.bad book for the why and what to do..depresssing and repetitive..should have been a sunday mag feature.."
+3332,2,Good Buy,I am very happy with this purchase in compare with Macy's sale both inturn of the looks and price. I hadown old one before and enjoy it's easy to use and give a good cup of coffe every time
+3333,1,"Too Dull for the Beach, Too Dumb for Anywhere Else","The Bronze Horseman is one of those big, dumb historical ""epics"" with cardboard characters and lines like ""Breathe on me. Let me smell your blueberry breath.""Obviously, this book is not intended to be great literature, but its historical setting (World War II in Stalin's Russia) is just too grim for silly melodrama.There are far better novels about Russia in the 1930's and World War II such as Generations of Winter by Vassily Aksyonov and The Arbat Trilogy by Anatoli Rybakov."
+3334,2,Miss Austen,"Loved this movie, seems to move very quickly thru the story but is put together very well. Well cast and lovely Brit. countryside...makes me homesick!!!!!!!"
+3335,2,Avon Clinical Eye Lift,"This product works well to keep your delicate skin around the eyes somewhat hydrated. Did nothing for any wrinkles. I would not pay full price for this product, but if you can find it on sale, its worth it."
+3336,1,Too Short!!,"I blinked and it was over. No really, it barely lasts five minutes. It's a segue. It leads you on with its elaborate packaging (lots of pictures that make you question your choice to watch it while eating) and has a disturbing opening which leads you on to the fact that there might be a story here... nope. It's not worth the $10 I paid.Those five minutes were good. Wait for it to show up on some sort of compilation- then buy it."
+3337,2,Nice visuals and sound,"This is for the DVD version, not the BluRay or HD.I have watched this a few times now and its very good. As a big fan its great to see the boys given the profesional treatment when it comes to camera work and sound. They have gotten the shaft in years past not having the real pro's film and record them in the 1970's. There always seems to be some glitch that prevents it from being great. Yessongs, QPR and Live from Philly all have problems even though parts of them are fantasic. Now however with Tsongas, this and other new DVD's hold up for all the big screen and surround sound technophiles.I agree with some other comments I have read that Chris is not shown enough until his solo spot but nothing is perfect as they say. Thumbs up"
+3338,1,a disapointment,I bought 2 Talking Silly Seat for my 3 and 5 year old We blew it up and by the next morning it was deflated
+3339,2,Funny show. I missed it when Comedy Central cancelled it.,Funny show. I missed it when Comedy Central cancelled it. The tapes are of great quality.
+3340,1,Don't buy it,"One week short of a year and the camera broke. Now, no image appears on the display in any of the 3 picture taking modes and no images are captured. I called the Sony phone number provided and got into a voice menu loop and hung up. When I tried again later it gave me the real person option. The rep was professional, but unsympathetic. For an estimated $147.34 in labor charges they would fix it. Sony online service support said pretty much the same thing only with a --you are talking to the wrong person-- tone. So much for Sony cameras."
+3341,2,Tour de Force,"I think Ian McEwan has few peers. Each book only convincesme further that he is one the finest authors writing in English today.I thought Atonement and Amsterdam would be tough to beat. But this book,Saturday, is simply one of the best books I have ever read in my life.By any author of any period. Period."
+3342,2,EEK! A mouse!,"Our three year old had been asking for a ""little baby mouse"" for Christmas. Not being a fan of the real thing, we saw this Folkmanis Mini Field mouse and knew it would be perfect! This little guy is very realistic looking and cute as can be. And, just to be safe, our three year old keeps him in a ""cage"" at night!"
+3343,2,Putting it all together,"No doubt about it Sophia knows her stuff when it comes to astrology. She is one of the best. This book puts it all together for you if you have been trying to get down to the nitty-gritty of forecasting. With her book, you are not left up in the air. You can mark your moment."
+3344,1,could've been tighter,"I gave up on Mankell's previous Det. Kurt Wallander ""The Dog of Riga"" because of boredom and could've done the same with ""The White Lioness"" but finished the last audiobook CD too see how it ended. I really wanted to like this book all the way through but the lack of a good editor was overwhelmingly apparent for this reader.I love the way Mankell writes and the way he sets up a story. The plot seems to be overly ambitious and wanders all over the place."
+3345,2,Very fast read,"This is the fourth book in the Left Behind Series. It continues just after wrath of the Lamb--a global earthquake in the 21st month of the Tribulation. Our two main characters, Buck and Rayford, are once again the ones the story is built around. But this time you want to keep up with both stories as they work to see who is left alive. We watch them both try and find their spouse's. We also see that the world population is starting to realize they need to take sides...choosing to align with Christ or the Anti-Christ.... At the end of this book we see the beginning of the Trumpet Judgments.This is the best written of the four book yet. There is actually a couple of twist in this book, which is nice. And once again the story does flow. That and the large print, I was able to read this book in a single afternoon. For the first time, I will go directly to the next book in the series and follow the story line."
+3346,1,This ain't the Higgins I used to admire,"After an interesting prologue, it's straight down the metaphorical tube. The plot doesn't thicken. It's thin gruel all the way. This is about as weak a story as Higgins has produced. Come on Jack, you can do so much better! It's obvious that no research was done regarding the site of an important part of the plot--Park Avenue, in Manhattan. It just isn't like that. His scenes there are pure fairy tale. I guess, '...Connection's suitable for a mindless read at the beach. One afternoon should do it."
+3347,2,Book Really makes you think.,I just love this book. I read a copy someone lent me and had to return to them. I then bought one for a gift and had to read it again before I gave it. Now I have to buy a copy for myself. It really helps with all the changes that are happening in this day and age.
+3348,2,Ready Folks; C.J.'s new book is finally here! And it's great,This latest work of C.J. is the berries. You will love to follow the escapades of that rascal-Jacob. Lots of suspense and intrigue. Why does all that have to happen to Tuesday? Remember that once you pick it up you won't be able to put it down. It's another page turner. You will enjoy the added information brought out about some of the other characters. It will make a marvelous Christmas present for your friends.
+3349,1,Colors are not as advertised,"I ordered the chamomile mat. It looks NOTHING like the shown color, not even remotely close. The tags on matdo indeed say Chamomile. Roommate ordered the Burgundy, same problem. It's not Burgundy.Be aware that the colors they are advertising the mats to be are not accurate."
+3350,1,caveat emptor,"Innotek tells me that Amazon is not one of their authorized dealers, so they will not honor any warranty. I bought one of their collars and it stopped working after two months. No warranty service if you don't buy from one of their authorized dealers."
+3351,2,Awesome movie....put the kids to bed first!,"This was an awesome movie. It's the kind of movie that stays with you several days after you've seen it. I was actually scared to buy the dvd because when I saw it in the theatre it spooked me out so bad. Not so much because I thought it was plausible, but because the images from the video in the movie started to appear in my dreams for the next week and a half.""The Ring""--the gift that keeps on giving!I only wish they would sell a dvd that has both the American and the Japanese versions on it, since they were distributed by the same company. That would be cool."
+3352,2,Tuck Everlasting,"Tuck Everlasting was an interesting book about a family who holds a dangerous secret. But almost everything goes wrong when ten-year old Winnie Foster stumbles onto this secret.All of a sudden a suspecting and mysterious man tries to learn it and Winnie helps a murderer escape all in the first week of August.This book was very engaging and exciting. Something always occured till it hit hte climax. But it didn't end. It had much more action till it hit the ending.If you like action and fantasy, this is your book."
+3353,2,"informative, a neccessary book","Being a Hare Krishna, I found the book revealed the frailties of the human mind without the direct touteledge of their guru. The book is well written, from a Karmi point of view, however unless people are informed about the true nature of the ISKCON movement, it can be misleading. It tells of some of the horrible events that took place on the land of a community, however, this leader, Kirtanananda, was very delusional, not a true bona fide guru. Read this book, by all means, but keep in perspective that any one side of the story isn't the whole side, and if Prabhupada had been alive at the time of those events, they would never have taken place. Read and appreciate the love for Krishna that the true devotees have in this book. Those who are not true devotees, as any religious community has, are just hypocrites."
+3354,1,Zombie Planet...let's have some more zombie action!,"This movie seemed incapable of moving (and considering I can tolerate anything as long as there's a strong finish) or going anywhere.This is mainly about two groups of people: the ""upper class"" (Bad People!) versus...well, the not upper class, in a movie about carb diets turning people into zombies, but the zombies seem to have little to do with the two groups of people fighting over dominion, food, and their personal safety--which could be cool, but done very boring and without a climax.Bottom line:Little gore, plot sucks, it lasts almost two hours, and for what, I keep asking myself, since there is no final battle with zombies vs. people, and finally, if you're going to make a bad horror movie, at least grace us with some nudity.Skip this one."
+3355,1,So Disappointed!,"We read so many good reviews on this dvd, that we decided to splurge and buy the complete series. What a mistake! We watched 15 minutes of the first episode, and turned it off. We don't understand these people that rave about how wonderful the script is, etc, etc. If you took out all the profanity, you would have a silent movie. Just shows you the intelligence required to write a movie script these days. We are used to some profanity in movies, but this one went WAY over the edge. You would have to send me on a time machine back to the old west to prove to me that they talked that way all the time, plus heard some words that I doubt were even in the English language then. I learned an expensive lesson, read all the reviews! Although there seems to be a great number of people who enjoyed the series, it's too bad that their vocabulary is so limited."
+3356,1,Nope.,"Anyone comparing this to ""Catch 22"" should have read both books. Inventive as it is, it remains a one-gag comedy. That George Clooney has optioned it is telling. Will Jennifer stop him before he thrills again?"
+3357,2,You'll Love This,"I agree with the first reviewer - this is one of my favorites in a growing collection of acoustic guitar music. Perfection, beauty, harmony - wow! Very relaxing and enjoyable."
+3358,2,The best fantasy I have read since Tolkien...,"In the first three books of a Song of Ice and fire Martin has achieved what seems to be so elusive among today's fantasy writers. He develops round, realistic, human characters that, get this, you will actually care about. You will see nobility in villains and cowardice in heroes, set against a fantasy world that is both gritty and imaginative. The separate stories in the book are incredibly engaging and well written. Just like the real world, anything can and does happen in Martin's novels. Much to our dismay sometimes the good guys do die. Unlike obviously designated tragic figures of other fantasy novels you won't be able to tell which characters live or die, which I found to be incredibly refreshing. I cannot wait for the next installment of the series, as I have found these novels to be the best I have had the pleasure to read in some time."
+3359,1,Total Trash,"Oh, hell no. Deida is a clueless tool and this book is misogynistic tripe. Pass it on by."
+3360,1,not so great,"This sprayer came partially disassembled, and had no instructions. The spray pattern it produces is uneven and unreliable. It kind of spits at what you are spraying, and it leaks like crazy. As for the claim of not having to pump it, if you get everything just right it might spray for about 5 minutes off of the pressure it gets from filling it. After that it's back to pumping. Most of the time a fitting is loose or something else happens to let the pressure leak out before it does you any good. Save yourself the extra bucks and get a regular pump sprayer. Or spend the bucks you have to pay to get a professional electric powered sprayer. This one is not worth the extra money."
+3361,2,Good but....,"Pretty good print server. The response time is great. I've used it with both my Brothers Multifunction machine and a lowend Canon inkjet. Both worked great. The setup it simple on my wired/wireless networks ... my only complaint is of its strictly parallel interface. These day, being forced to buy/use a printer with that interface(as opposed to USB) will greatly limit your selection and therefore the usefulness of this device. But if that's not an issue... this machine is great!"
+3362,1,Absolutely Horrible,"Nice cover, Slow and shallow plot with horrible voice over effects(I cant beleive someone was actually paid to do voices in monotone!). Controls and camera view are very clumsy and user-unfreindly. What on earth where the developers thinking??? Gabriel Knight was 1000 X's better than this game. I only wish I'd left it on the shelf. PS: I wrote a longer review but I couldnt find it posted, so I shortened this up a bit.Bill Negron AKA AceFreight"
+3363,1,WHAT??,"I bought this because I thought it was a sports cap. Instead, it's somehow a cap to the cap - completely useless, as there was no way I was able to determine how to use it as a replacement for my other sports cap. Again, DIRECTIONS WOULD BE HELPFUL!!!"
+3364,1,see it once,"but never again. My thoughts as I watched this film were: so this is what they did with rejected star trek sets, thank god they only translated every third line, I am not looking forward to the day it reaches DVD and we find out what was edited (or was it), and if given the choice between watching this film again or death - I would seriously consider death!"
+3365,2,REC is great ...quarentine is a bad copy!,Someone said that you have to see just one of them. There is no doubt ... REC is an excellent film and Quarentine doesn't have the feeling and reality of REC. I saw REC in DVD (excellent quality video) and in blu-ray I think it will be fantastic!Obs: I'm changing my review today (02/15/2010) ... Here in Brasil I rented REC in Blu-ray this month (february)... It's is very good !!! Forget the DVD ...
+3366,2,Works waaaay better then the junk from Homedepot!,This thing smoked the Leviton cable amp I bought from homedepot.I am thoroughly impressed with the quality signal level this amp produces. I have it connected in my structured wiring cabinet and even have a couple of splitters on the back side to get signal to all of my rooms/devices and every outlet I've tried works perfectly! I would highly recommend this amp to anyone with cable signal problems.
+3367,1,I thought it was ok...,"A lot of people like this album, and critics are always saying how this is the greatest indie album of all time. I could see for the late 80's how this could be groundbreaking, but this 2009. And there alot of people who do similiar things to this band. That being said, I do like Sonic Youth's Cover of the Carpenters Album, being a carpenters fan, myself.As for this one, I just found it to be too quiet, too dull, and not very original. I will say on the bright side that the cover artwork is way ahead of its time. And so was the band, which i have to give credit to them. I thought Daydream Nation and Teenage Riot were ok. Overall, if your into rock music then def. buy this album."
+3368,2,"Works, but figuring it out might take an effort","Funny how even with instructions such a simple device can still be so confusing. Maybe it's because the cassette player I was using I purchased from a brontosaurus, but overall it did work well. With a more modern tape player, the whole process might have been easier. Nonetheless, mission accomplished with this product which actually came with much more in the box than expected, including a substantial length of good quality cable.If making it all happen hadn't been such a chore, I would have given this 5 stars."
+3369,2,Great Fairy tale book,"This has got to be my favorite books of all time. Many fairy tale characters come to life in these pages, in ways I have never read before. More for adolescents and adults, rather than small children. Highly recommended."
+3370,2,I love this bag!,"I have heard good things about 5.11 products, so I thought I would try this bag even though I was a little uneasy about spending so much when similar bags can be had for far less. I'm glad I did. This bag looks / feels like it would survive anything. It holds all of my range gear and then some."
+3371,2,A GREAT SET BUT NOT UNCUT,"I WAS REALLY LOOKING FORWARD TO THIS DVD SET. AND IT`S GREAT AND ENTERTAINING. HOWEVER I WAS DISAPOINTED TO SEE THAT THE TENTH ANNIVERSARY SHOW IS NOT UNCUT,THE TIKI ROOM SEQUENCE HAS BEEN EDITED, WHY? I DON`T KNOW, BUT I STILL LIKE THE BOX SET. IT DOES HAS SOME GREAT STUFF!! AND I WOULD LOVE TO SEE MORE SETS OF THE SAME. BUT IT SEEMS IF YOUR PROMISED SOMETHING IN THE AD(UNCUT& UNCENSORED) YOU SHOULD DELIVER. BUT THESE RAVINGS ARE MINOR BUY IT ANYWAY IT`S CHEAPER THAN TIME TRAVEL!!!!"
+3372,2,Awesome Bag,This is really a cool bag. I can fit my Canon T3i with 55 mm lens attach in it!Excellent for Traveling with ur DSLR
+3373,1,"MAN,S WAR AGAINST THE SOVEREIGNTY OF GOD","THIS BOOK IS JUST ANOTHER PREDICTABLE DIATRIBE AGAINST THE SOVEREIGNTY OF GOD. WHEN ARMINIANS CAN SPIN AWAY THE TRUTH THEY CONSTANTLY PRAY FOR GOD TO SAVE SINNERS THAT ARE NOT INTERESTED;WHEN THEY CAN SPIN AWAY THE TRUTH THAT GOD SOVEREIGNLY PASSED BY THE RACE OF FALLEN ANGELS AND CHOSE,SOVEREIGNLY,TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THE RACE OF FALLEN MEN;AND THEY CAN SPIN AWAY THE TRUTH THAT ANTICHRIST HAS BEEN PREDESTINED TO DAMNATION BY GOD FROM ALL ETERNITY,THEN THEY MAY GET A HEARING FROM OTHER THAN THE HIGHLY IGNORENT AND PERVERSE. GOD CLEARLY STATES IN THE BIBLE THAT HE PREDESTINATES THE DESTINY OF THE REBELLIOUS SINFUL LITTLE POTS. HIS ANSWER TO THOSE THAT HATE THIS IS THAT HIS GRACE HIS FREE AND HE DOES NOT TAKE ORDERS FROM MEN. THE BIBLE STATES GOD IS EVERYTHING AND MEN ARE NOTHING. SO LET ALL THE SINFUL LITTLE POTS BE LIARS AND THE POTTER BE TRUE. J W MAJORS"
+3374,2,The finest Indian Cook Book I've ever used!,"I've tried about 10 recipes from this book and each has turned out fantastic. There are no colour pictures but the instructions are precise and clear. I'd say that on average the level of difficulty for most recipes is moderate to perhaps a little higher then moderate, but still well worth the effort."
+3375,2,A good book,If you are persistent enough and determined enough to finish this book it's worth reading.
+3376,1,DO NOT BUY THIS - IT IS DANGEROUS!!,"CUTE TOY, BUT THE LITTLE BEADS ON THE GIRAFFES ACTUALLY PULL OFF THE TOY AND THE CHILD CAN CHOKE ON THEM. VERY DANGEROUSDO NOT BUY"
+3377,2,I would recommend,The shipping container left a lot to be desired and the shipping company didn't take very good care. The product itself is very easy to use and maintain. It seems to be built well enough to pass down a generation or two. I'm having fun with it.
+3378,2,DeLtRoN Z & his rEturn,"del comes with a new perspective of hip hop, taking us on a new level....my favorite emcee is Jeru the damaja..and i'm convinced that he is the ""oakland jeru"". he collaborated with other musical geniues, such as prince paul, who has a extended knowledge of beats, El-p of company flow, who redefined an offspring...and of course the imperial hieroglyphics....what more can i say but listen to it and get connected..."""
+3379,1,I've heard better....,"I am a huge fan of Less Than Jake, have all their albums and everything. This one, however, is not their best (border-line disappointed). #1 What happened to the horns? Pretty much the only two songs I like on the CD are the ones with horns in it. I know a lot of people are saying that we should embrace the fact that they are venturing away from their traditionally ska background and experimenting with more of a pop/rock sound, but it's that ska sound that has kept me hooked in the first place. If you are looking for the usual LTJ masterpiece, this is not the one for you. If you are interested in something more like The Starting Line/The Ataris with the personality of LTJ, then you may like this."
+3380,1,Changed their product,I was re-buying this product after I ran out of my first batch. I used the frames for papercrafting but will not be purchasing them again. The older product allowed you to completely open the window flap by pulling apart two small glued spots but the new product has glued the window frame down completely and it is EXTREMELY hard to work with. It's probably fine if you are stuffing stiff photographs in them but I am printing pictures on my computer and making handmade cards with them with my own designs. My printed pictures are not stiff and do not go easily into their frames without damage. They need to go back to the old style. I also liked to emboss the frame but can not do that anymore unless I emboss the entire front of the card. It just doesn't work anymore. They look horrible. This company doesn't understand their market.
+3381,1,The noise competes with the poetry,"Some poetry is born to be also music (e.g., Bob Dylan, Leonard Cohen). Some other poetry is born to be read as poetry and the addition of music is only the addition of masking noise. I had the hope of hearing poetry; instead, I got some horrible noise that at times made the words unintelligible. What a waste of poetry! I wish somebody could publish Bernstein's poetry readings free of noise."
+3382,1,Did Not Fit My car,"I bought this fuel pump for a 1997 Buick Riviera. I check out the spec's and what cars it was made for.It listed my Riv. OEM replacement. WAS NOT....nothing was made to fit in my 1997 Riv. Even the ring that fits over the pump after you install the pump to seal it into your gas tank didn't fit pump.Sent it back to Amazon, Amazon was GREAT!!! No problems with my return what so ever!!!! Even paid for shipping back!So....if you have a Buick Riviera....don't buy this pump."
+3383,1,good fictional work that fixed a social bottleneck with Whites & Blacks in America,"What if you blackened your skin to pass as a negro during the 1960's? What this fictional story showed us what was going on in racist America and moved millions for a change that we now, in a good part, enjoy."
+3384,2,Rango,"Rango is the best animated feature I've ever seen. After this movie, you know you can never trust what you see on TV again. The movie pays homage to many Westerns including the metal beak on the hawk that brings up memories of 'Cat Ballou' and a cosmic Clint Eastwood clone."
+3385,2,"Amazing DVD, a feast for the senses",This concert DVD is an absolutely masterpiece. A total must buy. Kamelot is maybe the best metal band out there at the moment. They deserve all the success. Buy this inmediately and you will understand why.
+3386,2,The dogs love them!,"We've been buying these for our dogs for about 3 years now, and I was over the moon when they finally started offering them as Subscribe and Save items. Our dogs are each about 12 pounds and the teenie Greenies are the perfect size. We give the Greenies as special treats when we leave the house for the day, and the dogs love them so much, it distracts them from watching us walk out the door. They may be expensive (especially for the larger sizes for bigger dogs), but they are definitely worth it. Not only do our dogs love them, but they've never had any teeth problems (maybe from the Greenies, maybe not lol). Definitely recommend for dog owners as a special treat for your canine companion(s)."
+3387,1,Start panicking,"This band sucks. My roommate will not stop playing this album. All of the songs sound exactly the same, but have completely unnecessary and random bridges. The canned techno in the middle of track two almost made me barf. The lyrics make no sense at all. Awful awful album."
+3388,1,"What happened to the novel, ""The Religion""?","I saw this video and was not really pleased, as I had read the novel, ""The Religion"" and it was so absolutely engrossing in it's content. I had hoped for the same to happen with the movie, as well. I was dissapointed that the book was not followed very well, at all and other than it mentioning the fact, it was a screenplay, based on the novel ""The Religion"", there was not much in the simularity department--now, I would love to find someone who knows anything about locating the novel, as I can no longer find it, anywhere and would love to re-read it, as it is a novel that is perfect, for the person who wants to be kept up all night, just to finish it... if true, as it claims to be. Therefore, the video was not very satisfying, as I had hoped-which surprised me even more, because of having Martin Sheen as the lead in it. I usually like movies that Martin Sheen chooses to do."
+3389,1,This won't get you through the PTO exam,"I created this course in 1995 and it was state of the art then. However, there have been so many changes in rules and procedures since then that this course is hopelessly outdated. I am launching a new course and you passthepatentbar.com has a lot of materials about the exam as it exists today."
+3390,1,Just returned it,"During the first few days it worked only OK - down hill from there. No one could hear me. ""Are you in a tunnel?"" ""Is it really windy there?"" ""Are you vacuuming?"" ""HELLO! HELLO! Is anyone there??""After that, the phone kept disconnecting from the device. I had to reprogram the phone to ""find"" the headset five times in just a few weeks. Then I started getting a message that the signal was too weak - even though the handset was only three ft away!"
+3391,2,Great Knife,Great knife for every purpose I have needed. It is sharp and I love the corkscrew to open the picnic wine.
+3392,2,The Westing Game,"I absolutely loved The Westing Game by Ellen Raskin. It is a classic story of an old millionaire, Sam Westing, who died suddenly on Halloween night. Following his death, sixteen heirs, his nieces and nephews, were called together for the reading of his will. They find, however, that this is no ordinary will; instead it is the outline for an outrageous game in which the heirs will be paired together in an attempt to find which one of them is Westing's murderer. Each pair gets a set of clues, and will work together to solve the mystery and win the game in order to gain the inheritance. Over the course of their search, robberies and bombings cause the will to become more than just a game, but rather a chance to save themselves and their partners, before Westing's murderer catches them, too."
+3393,1,Burleson is a hack - skip this book,"Like most of Burleson's books this book is fluffy, wrong in some cases, and marginal in value. Skip this (and all Burleson books) and go instead to Richard J. Niemiec or Tom Kyte. The problem with the book is that at best it gives you a confusing survey of the myriad metrics that an Oracle database statspacks report generates. The 'analysis' of the metrics is cursory at best. Beware, all Burleson books are printed on very thick paper and set in large fonts with plenty of whitespace. This book would otherwise be a fairly slim pamphlet. Save your money do not buy this book."
+3394,1,mediocre,This has alot of common knowledge information that you can find on the internet. The workouts are just a compilation of different weight workouts without saying which is better for boxing. The running advice is very good though
+3395,1,The Bull Starts Here,"""Today, Bob Greene is a celebrated, nationally-syndicated columnist. In 1964, he was a seventeen-year-old Ohio high school kid. And he kept a diary.""It's all here. The teenage girl who got away...""Snicker, snort."
+3396,2,4.5 stars means awesome-tastic,"I have always loved this movie. I agree with some of the bad reviews that the book was better. True, the book was amazing, but that doesn't mean the movie wasn't enjoyable. I don't know why, but I laughed during this movie. Certain little things. It wasn't the best acting, annoying little girl, Herman Munster gets killed, etc. This movie, having first seen it at about 9, has never scared me. I just really enjoyed it. You should see it. Do it now."
+3397,2,Amazing live performance!,"Spiritualized puts on such a tight show on this album that I wouldn't be surprised to find out they've fixed everything up in the studio to get such a clean, flawless live sound. Even if that was the case, I'd still give this album 5 stars. It's every bit as good as ""Ladies and Gentlemen We are Floating in Space,"" and for me both of these albums are easily among the top albums of the nineties.As a caveat, I feel obligated to state that I am far from an expert on live albums, and generally prefer the studio offerings of most bands. My favorite live albums are this one, ""Absent Lovers"" by King Crimson, ""The Name of This Band is Talking Heads"" by (you guessed it) Talking Heads, and Genesis Live (along with the live portion of Genesis Archive 1967-75) by Peter Gabriel-led Genesis."
+3398,1,it's ok,"I bought this because I simply love the song ""I Will Be Here"" by Steven Curtis Chapman. There are very few other songs that I found good. Most are only mediocre. I was disappointed."
+3399,2,resurect E.1999,"Dear Mr. Ougi, There has never been a group that could flow like Bone. Eazy got it right when he put those guys together. All thuggish Bone fans will love this album. It makes the art of war look like Britaney Spears (with the exeption of ""Thug Love""). I am sorry, but I just dont think it compares with E. 1999 NOTHING EVER WILL! Thats why I gave it a 4!"
+3400,2,pure swedish death metal by way of germany,"awesome album. if you are a fan of the ""stockholm"" death metal sound (early entombed, dismember, grave, unleashed, desultory, etc.), fleshcrawl is the band for you.i enjoy most all of metal's sub genres (especially the gothenburg sound that would soon follow), but in my opinion the first wave of swedish death metal bands is one of the best (and criminally over-looked) movements in metal's history thus far. even though fleshcrawl isn't from sweden, they're one of the best examples of the style. wish there was more bands like fleshcrawl today...thick, brutal, some groove, and a slight touch of melody. and how about that guitar tone? absolutely classic."
+3401,1,Prometheus,"bad acting, poor script.not worth the money.not worth the money.not worth the money.not worth the money"
+3402,2,Good Harp,I'm a starter Harmonica player so I got this one just to screw around with. It's a lot of fun! It fits perfectly in my pocket and its got a nice sound to it. I give it 4 not five because it comes with a paper case not any sort of protection. It's durable but it has no protection so be careful.
+3403,1,Don't Buy If You Have Hand Injuries!,"While the curve of this keyboard is nice, the keys are WAY WAY WAY too hard and stiff to the touch. A decent ergo keyboard should be a light touch, which is critical if you're healing from RSIs. This is awful. I'm returning it."
+3404,2,Mercy Me Almost There,"The music of Mercy Me is excellent. The song ""I can only imagine makes me feel as if I'm ""Almost There"". If you don't have the CD yet, I highly recommend it!"
+3405,1,"one great tune, the rest mediocre","Based on the reviews given on this site, and on the great first track, I bought the CD. I was very disappointed - the rest of the songs are second-tier, and of a different style (much more laid back). Buy the first track as a single instead."
+3406,1,Please Give Rick Rubin a Call!,"Absolutely disposable, bland pop crap. There's not one minute of inspired, interesting music here. This is a band that has lost it's edge, plain and simple. A few songs on V were mildly interesting because it was so different. About half of Birds of Prey was good becuase it was their first stab at a more pop-oriented sound and they kept it heavy in a few places. The Death of a Dictionary was even better than this! They need to get a really good producer and lock themselves in a studio in thie middle of nowhere to recapture their sound. These guys are headed straight for the oldies section and concert circut. I have seen them twice in the past few years with basically the same Greatest Hits package show with no surprises - just going through the motions. The last time I was subjected to several songs from this a few months before it came out. Next time you want to listen to Live, just pop in one of the first 4 albums and save your money."
+3407,2,Got me hooked on the string!,"Though many people have reviewed this in detail (and thank you to those which led me to this purchase) I will keep it short and to the point. It is a great starting machine and one that will take you into the next level. For a player who is stringing the family racquets, the neighbor's racquets and a team mates... this is a great little machine. It will pay off in no time. For those who are doing stringing multiple times a week and turning into a mini-career, it may be better to upgrade to a more automated machine (but use this one until you can't... generate that money now and upgrade then). This little buddy will do the job of many rackets. You just have to monitor the wear on the sprockets (or tension teeth grabbing the string).So you tennis geeks out there that love the detail and intricacies of the racquet and different strings, tinkering with every part of your game... START HERE! Great little product."
+3408,1,"Whatever Happened to ""James Patterson?""","I loved the past mysteries of James Patterson when he was not paired with another writer, an unknown one at that. I never failed to read his work, but now that he's churning out several books a year, in comparison to other authors who take a year or two to complete a novel, I have to wonder if the storytelling is secondary to making money. Sorry, but I want the ""old"" James Patterson style to come back."
+3409,2,A must read,"I have always found Varney to be useful and easy to read, especially in comparison to Speroff or Gabbe. I think that this book was never intended to be the definitive text on home birth. If a midwife's interest lies in homebirth, seek out books that cater to that option. I found the skills sections especially helpful. It isn't Varney's job to unite midwives, her primary job is to educate. You can not teach the spirit of midwife through a book, that's where mentoring comes into play. This is certainly a must have for all practicing midwives, regardless of educational background."
+3410,2,"""Unspoken"": by Lisa Jackson","Thia book is right up there with all the other books that I have read of Lisa Jackson. She is a great writer and I hope she is keep writing for a long time to come!""UNSPOKEN"": By Lisa Jackson"
+3411,2,40 Bright and Bold Paperpieced Blocks,"I think this was the first Carol Doak book we bought. My hubby and I have both used it and the first time I used it I had never paper pieced before and she made it so easy that I got hooked on this piecing method. She tells you how to precut fabric so you do not waste fabric. She gives very detailed information and instructions, I think a beginner quilter with ""just the basic"" knowledge of quilting could use Carols method. The pictures a very well done also."
+3412,1,Not a good toaster,"This toaster is awful. It doesn't toast well, has a tiny capacity, is difficult to stop mid-toast (when the toast is burning you have to literally pull the plug to get it to stop), and the black plastic looks cheap and has discolored with foggy patches in a very short time with very little use. Would not recommend."
+3413,2,Perfect!,"Exactly what I was looking for. Great glove, will be even better when I finish breaking it in."
+3414,1,Don't buy if you want something long term,"I had this air mattress for less than 6 months, with only light use when guests come over to the apartment. I probably did not use this mattress more than 15 times and now it becoming undone at one of the seams and leaking air bad. I know people who have had better experiences with better quality mattresses, so next time, cost will not be the overriding factor."
+3415,2,Worth the Money,"I've only had it for a few days but something tells me that this water level control switch will keep on ticking for a long time to come given that it is a solid state device and no mechanical mechanism to fail me. In the last two years, I've exhausted two float switches that came with the sump pump. The original lasted about a year and thinking maybe it was the freak of the draw, I replaced it with another from the manufacturer only to have it fail again in about another year. They were both mechanical float switches. This thing uses only a single wire to detect water level. What could possibly go wrong short of a surge in my electrical line? Get it, it's well worth it even if it's a bit over-priced."
+3416,2,Amazing book,"This was a wonderful book, and really taught me some important life lessons. It really makes you think."
+3417,1,Horrible sequel,All I am going to say that this film compared to the first one is like comparing apples and potatoes. Nuff said. Skip it definitely.
+3418,2,"New York, Empire City: 1920-1945",No regrets but I wish there were more photos of the city and street scenes.
+3419,1,Can opener?,Difficult to get started. Locks up after clamp-down with inadequate motor buzzing. You must remove can or burn up motor. Locking/clamp-down arm keeps falling off if you lift it up too high. I threw it out and ordered another brand.
+3420,1,Handi Wipes Heavy Duty Reusable cloths,"I recently order 18 packs (54cloths) I have been using the heavy duty for years until the past months, none of the stores have been carrying them. I ordered 18 packs and the cloths do not anyway compare to the orginal heavy duty cloths that I was using for years. I have two of the original cloths left and there is on comparsion to the original. This product has NO substance, are lighter weight, not tough and don't last like the previous handi wipes. I might as well be using the regular handi-wipes that I don't care for. I am now stuck with 18 packs of wipes that I do not like. Why change a good product????? Thank you Mary Ann"
+3421,1,How *dare* they?!!???!!!!!!,"And I thought the Sailor Moon dub/hack was bad.Plenty of people have said it already, but I thought I'd add my voice to the chorus: this dub is just awful! Nelvana had a treasure of an adorable show to bring to America and turned it into a hole-ridden, unemotional, and otherwise just WRONG series of events strung together in no sensible order. I wouldn't have believed it was possible to ruin a show this badly. What *were* they thinking????"
+3422,1,Controversy for profit!,Save your money this one just try's to play off of Holy blood holy grail and the controversy over The Da Vinci Code. I hate to agree with other reviewers but this one was defiantly written for the money.
+3423,1,broken,my husband got my daughter and myself pixel chicks for xmas.I replaced the batteries in hers 3 times within a week and half and finally brought it back for an exchange. We went to play them and now mine is dead. Tried to replace the batteries and reset but nothing works. She really likes this toy but we are having the worst luck with them.
+3424,2,Exquisite Classical Music!,"If you want a real treat, then listen to Positive Persistence by Jennifer Small! This music is alive and full of sparks, yet comforts your mind after a long day, or throughout the day to keep your spirit and mind moving! It makes you smile, and sets your day in a positive direction! The graphic design on this CD is so cool; its photography and layout are one of a kind. The poetry inside the CD again matches the tonality of these compositions. I suggest that you all add Positive Persistence, by composer Jennifer Small to your CD collection. I have 3 other Jennifer Small albums, and look ahead to purchasing her others. What other living composer today writes such uplifting lyrical, poetic and melodic modern classical music? You can not compare Small's music to anyone out there today; it is simply unique!"
+3425,2,Fun for Boys,GOt this for my nephews birthday and he love it. He got it out and played with it right away. The boys loved it!! Would defiently get it again. My only problem was it was really simple and it cost more than I think it should. Otherwise it was alot of fun!
+3426,1,Great Title; Poor content,"It's disappointing that not one, but two books by this author, filled with inaccuracies, could find their way to publication. A glance through the chapter about Blondes relates the tired Jean Harlow/Christian Science/Evil Mother Jean story that first appeared in Irving Shulman's 1964 best selling, but totally made-up HARLOW, AN INTIMATE BIOGRAPHY. Mr. Wallace apparently missed both the excellent David Stenn and Eve Golden bios of Jean Harlow that were written in the early 1990's, which refute that legend based on hospital records and other 'minor' facts, etc.If you are in the mood for salacious gossip unrooted in reality, read Kenneth Anger's books; they are 'classics' of this genre that will leave you howling and hungry for more, unlike copycats like HOLLYWOODLAND, which reminds one of stale bread."
+3427,2,loved it.,I had always loved the last unicorn movie and the songs featured in it. i was glad to finally found the soundtrack. I listen to it constantly and I believe any unicorn lovers should see the movie at least once especially for the songs.
+3428,1,"great movie, good features, flimsy package","E.T is one of the best family films ever made and one of the highest grossing films of all time, Universal really botched this dvd release on many levels, First off there is no audio commentery by anyone, i know speliburg will not do commenteries...Enough complaining let me complaiment on the few things universal got Right the Galleries on disc two are nice photos of memborillia and production photos, drawings of E.T etc, The sound is great and I like the option of Having both versions of the film, The only other dvds I own and am aware of that feature movies on both discs are Sherk and Glory which are only formatted differently on each disc. Bottom Line this Dvd is far from what i would have liked for E.T , but it's better then nothing if your a die hard fan. Please note the two star rating is for the dvd release the movie itself is a five."
+3429,2,Worth having in your library,"I was given this book some time ago and must admit perusing it very often. This is not the kind of book to read from start till the end in one go: doing this would be missing the point. Like others who have commented on this book I like to read sections when faced with a current problem. Asking me questions or suggesting answers via a series of questions is something that this book does very well. Once again, it goes to show that we always know the answer, it's just that we sometimes don't know how to get the answer from within. This book helps you better connect the dots inside your mind."
+3430,2,Very nice bike,"I got this bike during the Black Friday sale. The bike was shipped SUPER FAST and undamaged. Set-up was a snap...attach the front wheel, seat and handlebars...make a few minor adjustments here and there...and I was ready to hit the road. The ride is very nice, it's fast and smooth. Oh yeah, and it looks awesome."
+3431,2,This is a beautiful translation of India's great scripture.,"The Upanishads, translated by Juan Mascaro, is a beautiful translation, which, like Mascaro's translation of The Bhagavid Gita, breathes simplicity and purity throughout. The Upanishads are maxims on the spiritual life, and are poetry, scripture, guidance all in one. ""The truth is hidden by a circle of gold. Unveil the truth, oh God of light, that I might see!"" ""It is not for the love of the husband that the husband is dear, but for the soul that is in the husband."" ""Behold, all that lives and walks on earth. Leaving the transient, take refuge in the eternal, set not your heart on another's possession. Working thus, a man can wish for a life of one hundred years. Only actions done in God, bind not the heart of man."" (I paraphrase). This collection is truly wonderful, and should be a part of everyone's spiritual library, along with the major scriptures of all the world's faiths."
+3432,1,Sick and disturbing movie,"A waste of internet bandwidth, and Amazon web storage space. Like watching turd dry. Not even worth a 20-word review.Zero stars."
+3433,2,superb!!!!!,"I purchased this book for my brother's 60th birthday- having grown up in Detroit- thought it would be a great walk down memory lane. He called me when he received the gift and absolutely gushed- loved every entry. Now, i may have to buy a copy for ME. thanks"
+3434,1,Even the rated version was incredibly obscene,"I watched barely 1/4 of it. My husband watched a little more than that. It had more f bombs than any other movie you could possibly imagine. I was prepared for some nastiness but thought since it was the rated one it would have been a bit better.....wrong. Even IF I blurred out the vulgar in it, it wasn't too incredibly funny. It could have been a great movie if they didn't make it entirely for drunk young fools!"
+3435,2,Timeless Jazz,"Excellent recording by this talented group of all-stars. Recorded in 1990, this is the fourth and final CD by this quintet. With Bobby Hutcherson on Vibes, Harold Land on Sax, Cedar Walton on Piano, Billy Higgins on drums, Buster Williams on Bass and Steve Turre on Trombone it is difficult to go wrong. All five are leaders in their own right. This recording features compositions by all members of the group except Higgins. The music is hard bop/post bop. Solos are delivered with the grace and intelligence one would expect from musicians of this caliper. I believe this is also the final pairing of Bobby Hutcherson and Harold Land, who together produced some of the finest hard bop recordings you will ever find. I highly recommend any of the late 60's Blue Note recordings that feature these two great artists. If you are a fan of Bobby Hutcherson, Harold Land or Cedar Walton I recommend all four of the recordings by this group if you can find them."
+3436,2,"yes, but ...","I've been using this book on and off over the last year. At first I was very impressed with the level of detail in the mathematics, especially as it was the only book at the time focussing on risk-neutral methods and covering BGM. But I've become increasing disillusioned with it of late. It's difficult to explain, but although the whole book is written in traditional theorem-proof style, there are no real proofs! (I have a PhD in math and have done research for 10 years so I should know a little about proofs.) The only ""proofs"" provided are basically symbol shifting, but the heart of the math is strangely absent. This is especially strange given the Springer series in which it appears.In short, if you want a catalogue of methods this book does the job, but if you want a deeper understanding try Lars Nielsens book."
+3437,1,"Never again, Maytag","I have owned this dehumidifier for two years. It has been serviced 4 times. Currently, the part it needs is on backorder and I will be without this unit for another six months. Maytag customer service is the worst I have ever dealt with!"
+3438,1,Ineffective,I liked this product when I saw how small it is. When I tried to use it I saw how ineffective and cumbersome it is. Don't buy it get a real water pick. It's a real waste of money.
+3439,2,"nice unit, little heavy","This will be a great unit to use in camp, but for hiking, I would prefer a lighter unit. The Katadyn arrived on time and was what I expected (except for the weight)."
+3440,2,Secret Santa Gift,"I bought these as a Secret Santa gift with some small cupcake toppers and they were a big hit! At $10, they're a good deal as well."
+3441,1,absolutelly worthless,"I had to return the first set, as it just did not communicate with the sending unit. As most complaints, (the second set)the band cracked after about 3 uses. Eventually fixed that (It now looks like a piece of junk) Battery lasts about 3 hours at the most. Sound quality is not too bad though. A waste of money."
+3442,2,Could not put this book down!!,"What started out as a threesome, turns into a fatal attraction when a husband and wife invite another woman into their bed to spice up their love life. Little does either spouse know, is that they both are still sleeping with the other woman!! I loved this book and finished it in one day, it's so full of drama and hot steamy love scenes. I can't wait for the sequel!!!Buy this book, it's worth every dime!"
+3443,2,sub-titles,"If you're not crazy about sub-titles,don't let that stop you from watching. The film is half English and half sub-titles. But there IS enough time to read them. Excellent political thriller."
+3444,1,This story is based on a lie,"Roy and Silo, the two penguins used, as the ""inspiration"" for this bogus tale are not homosexual penguins. The moment Silo was introduced to ""Scrappy"" the female penguin he took off with her. Male Penguins often sit on eggs.Before you buy this book rent or buy the movie ""March of the Penguins"" and you will learn the truth. You can also Google the information I shared above.I think it's important that readers know the truth before they introduce their children to this awful indoctrination material.BEWARE: ""Just because it is written, doesn't make it so."""
+3445,1,Be careful scrapbookers!!! This is NOT like the original Cropper Hopper!,Be careful scrapbookers!!! This is NOT like the original Cropper Hopper! It is not deep enought to fit 12X12 paper. Don't make the same mistake I did!
+3446,1,Bought 2 and both had strain relief cable failure,"After extensive reading of reviews, trying out earbuds in various stores and using a friend's set for a few days on a trial basis, I bought two pair of Monster Turbines for my kids, both of whom are teenagers. Within less than a year, both sets of earbuds failed due to the strain relief on the connector cable. Though they sound great, I cannot suggest that you buy these as they will likely fail within a relatively short period of time. Also, I tried to get through to customer service both on the phone and online and failed to get a response from the company. This is just terrible customer service. Again, the product sounds good but given the awful design and build quality combined with abysmal customer service, I say avoid Monster like the plague."
+3447,1,Questionable Quality,"I didn't expect a thick titanium camp cooking set from this $8 deal, but it has to be usable at least. The handle is made with extra-thin metal with barely support itself when filled with water, the connection screw was also a disaster. The other pans and sets are just too small to cook(the cup can barely hold One-Shot Espresso coffee). I was shocked by a product with such quality, but the price was there so I give it 2-star."
+3448,1,Cd is defective in that it has skips in the music.,"I definitely love the Music, but the CD has skips in the music. I will not purchase one that is not new again."
+3449,1,A Complete Waste of Time,"I watched this when it debuted on MTV. It's stupid. It's nothing but a MOVIE! They based the movie--or dramatic reinactment--on actual footage recovered from the guy who kidnapped the Real World cast. Well, you never see any real footage.I strongly recommend this to someone who just wants to see a POOR,... movie about the a season of the Real World gone wrong...no one dies either.If the DVD has original footage...then I give it 2 stars because, quite frankly...no one cares."
+3450,2,Great Camera!,"This is my 3rd digital camera and I couldn't be happier. The last two were both Olympus.Pro's: Small and lightweight, fast reaction time loading images on LCD, fast reaction when turning cam on and off, very simple to use, built-in flash (as opposed to flip up), and new XD card technology. The complaints about the ""cheap plastic"" feel really don't bother me since I prefer to have a lightweight camera.Cons: No sound on video, fast battery drainage (get rechargeables)."
+3451,1,Three Engelberts Unite,"I never got it. In the midst of Zeppelin, Sabath, Elton, Doobies, Stones, Santana, Humble Pie etc. you had these guys singing in front of a backup band and singing stuff like ""One"" and ""Jeremiah Bullfrog"" or whatever. Man, if I want to hear the Righteous Bros then I will listen to them. My wife picked up this CD and it didn't do it for me then and it still just hits me as top 40 70's ish pap. I don't even know what kind of music this is - maybe Vegas? For you fans of this type of stuff, I guess it is good stuff."
+3452,2,cozy,We love these sheets! My husband says he's had the best night's sleep ever since I bought these.
+3453,2,Covers Everything,"If you are going to study for the exam for any of the armed services, this is the book you want. It covers all the topics that will be included in any exam."
+3454,1,Totally NOT GREAT!!!,"I bought this CD thinking that I was getting the orignal version of ""Do they know its Christmas?"". Not only was it a remake, but a very poor one!!! I think the entire CD stinks, save your money!!"
+3455,1,Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows Part 2 - UMD Region Free,"I purchased this UMD cd in error, I don't have any way of playing this type of cd. I paid about $18 and returned it within the week and received $4 credit. That's ridiculus! There was a restocking charge for half the price. This turned out to be an expensive error on my part. I am not happy with the way this vendor does business."
+3456,1,Coke v. Pepsi,"If you want to know the history of the cola wars, then here it is. This explores the origins of Coke and Pepsi and how their rivalry was inflamed. The work was front-loaded; there was more discussion about the origins than about taste challenges and other modern occurrences.The selection of interviewees was small and very homogenous. Though one sees people of all races, ages, and genders drinking the sodas, all the interviewees were older, white men. Moreover, there were product placements galore. For example, one man didn't just discuss Coke; he wore a Coke tie and there was a huge Coke symbol a few feet behind him.Personally, I still like Pepsi better; it's smoother and not as bubbly. While I wanted to eat candy after watching a candy documentary, this documentary did not make me want to run out and buy any more soda than I normally consume."
+3457,2,Gracias Ramon Vargas,"Navidad desde Mexico es un ejemplar en el cual principalmente villancicos tradicionales Mexicanos retoman un nuevo color. Gracias a una fabulosa produccion y sobre todo, con una maravillosa voz e interpretacion, Navidad desde Mexico con Ramon Vargas es sin duda un disco de calidad mundial que no debe faltar en nuestras fiestas Navidenas."
+3458,1,If you don't expect much...,"If you don't expect much from this movie, it won't disappoint you. My son is into anything related to Merlin/Dragons, so this was an easy, cheap pick as a Christmas gift. Don't expect too much from it. Not sure why it's even on Blu-ray. Plot is poor, cinematography is mediocre, acting is so-so. Not one for rewatching."
+3459,2,Very Enjoyable,I really enjoy time travel books and this book is no exception. It was very enjoyable to read though at times sad. I found it intersting and hard to put down as I wondered what the ending of this adventure could be. Great read for both boys and girls and insightful to the history of those who emigrated to America.
+3460,2,I Love this Album,"As a lifelong Rush fan and one who enjoys every period of their career, Hold Your Fire is one of my favorites. The songs are forward moving and so different from the typical rock offerings expected by such bands. And with Clockwork Angels, they just continue to deliver. RUSH!!!!"
+3461,1,Less then 1 star,This book was a waste of time & money with nothing new or even interesting. It contains information that JHS student would know
+3462,2,Good basic coffee maker with a few extras,"I've had this coffee maker for over 2 years now (mine ""might"" be a slightly different model, but it looks the same and has the exact same features). It has worked wonderfully and brewed a nice pot of coffee. The timer is easy to set, and the brew strength and burner temp control are very nice features. I haven't used the filter it came with as I only use filtered tap water anyways.My only complaint is they should have put a backup battery in the clock. Any time the power goes out, I've got to reset the clock. That and my cup of coffee isn't instantly available when I stager out into the kitchen. Luckily it brews fast and the sneak-a-cup feature can provide quick relief.Overall I found this to be a great standard coffee machine. For the price it has all the features I need."
+3463,1,Disasterpiece!,"Hey, man, if you love, Love storys( wich I don't either way),wich last about an hour longer than they should, and love stories with the cheeseist screenplays known to mankind. Than this is a must buy for you, and only you.The sick part is that this waste of money and mostly time won eleven oscors. That has not been done scence 1959 with ""Ben Her"".If you want great cinama than please get ""A night to remamber""That is an underated masterpiece that is to about the Titanic."
+3464,1,Wackness,"J.R. Writer sounds like a baby CamRon in voice, flow, and rhyme scheme. Even though in my opinion he's a little bit better than CamRon, that's still not saying much (since CamRon is arguably the worst rapper out right now). The album isn't as horrible as CamRon's album earlier this year either. There are actually some songs that are tight to me and if they aren't tight...they're at least listenable. But listenable doesn't make it good. JR Writer doesn't spit any game, he just raps often rambling along in his slow flow. His rhymes while technically sound, are boring. The production is riding though...always love Dipset beats and really they are the only thing that keep me interested. However, JR Writer is the most talented of anyone in Dipset I've heard so far and has a little potential. Good songs include Byrd Call, Xtaci, and That's A Bet. 2 stars."
+3465,2,This CD swings and rocks,Awesome! This CD is the ultimate in cheese 50's Exotica. A bunch of rock bands soaking the Exotica craze for all its worth. Gritty and goofy tropical rockers from one hit bands belongs in any collecter's of weird vintage music. It doesn't get better than this. Although most of the prices of the sellers are ridiculous and if you look hard in the internet you can find both for way cheaper. The high price of the CD is worth it. Trust me!
+3466,1,horrible business,"Horrible business to deal with. My product was ""lost in the mail"" and i had no time to procure another. Way to go people. Do business with these people at your own risk. But I wouldnt if i were you."
+3467,2,Must've Been the Tractor Tavern,"My buddies and I were lucky enough to check these guys out playing a country set at the Tractor Tavern, just down from where they live in Seattle. One of the best shows I've ever seen. These guys love what they do and it shows everytime they play. I heard an advance copy of this album out at the Lucky 13 in SF, and I gotta say, I got just as excited (and drunk) and I did when I saw them live."
+3468,1,Short version of the original book,"Why do I give this book only 2 stars? I don't agree with the way this book is marketed. Watch out for ordering this book, as there are two books of the same title, author and publisher. What's the difference? One of the books has the word 'icons' on it and has only 192 pages from the original book. The original book has 712 pages. Check that the ISBN's match for what you are after. I made the mistake of buying this book from a site that did not list the page numbers and went off the title, publisher, author and picture on the front cover. Since first writing this review, I have now returned to say that I have the original 712 paged book and am very happy with it. When it comes to a book like this, why settle for second best?"
+3469,1,calc for chemistry students,"the keys absolutely suck, they don't register right so when you try to do 2+2+2+2+2, it instead reads as 22+2+22, not a good calculator, i recommend getting the higher up TI's if you can"
+3470,1,NOT FLATTERING!,"I don't get how reviewers are giving this 5 stars?! tks alot totally tricked me into buying a pair. ordered a small but the material is too thin or something because it gives you .. umm how do I say.. a very unflattering view between your legs! haha anyway havent worn these in public once but it wasn't worth retunring because of the restocking/shipping fee. ugh. waste of money, dont buy. thats what i get for trying to buy cheap yoga pants.. stick to lululemon!!!"
+3471,2,I wish I could give it more stars!,"I have never watched the x-files, until now. These two episodes are just great, the second episode had a ending that really suprised me. but I wont say more, becuase i don't want to spoil it, but trust me, if your a x-files fan, or a new fan like me, you'll love it."
+3472,1,Expired,I bought 2 of these batteries because they are so hard to find. I was very disappointed when I received them. They were both VERY expired. NOT impressed!!!
+3473,2,Tinea Versicolor gone!,"I have used this product several times through the last 15 years to treat my tinea versicolor. While in the shower, I simply ""shampoo"" my skin in the affected areas. Use more than you think you need to create a rich, thick lather, then let it sit on your skin for 5 minutes while you shave your legs or just soak in the shower. Then simply rinse it off. Two to three such applications is enough to completely eradicate my TV and keep it gone for 3-4 years. No kidding! When it eventually comes back, I perform this routine again and am TV free for another 3-4 years. This is the only product I've found that works this quickly and effectively. It's wonderful!"
+3474,2,Works as expected.,"This is a great little device. Functional, portable and unobtrusive. The only (small) drawback is that it's possible to bump the device out of its spot when pulling a car in or just moving about the garage. I simply drew a small outline on the floor of where the thing is supposed to live, so it's easy to get it back in its spot. Am curious how long the batteries will last, as they appear to be non-replaceable."
+3475,1,"No go, bad disks x2, included digital copy is crap","I have received a second shipment of this BD and it does not play either,Roxio Cineplayer freezes completely on both copies of this Fox disk.None of my other 30 odd bluray disks have any problem playing, in additionI have two separate bd disk drives on my computer and both do the same lockup on this Fox XMen First Class (note that both drives are up to date onfirmware and they are different makes, one is Samsung and the other isLG).Not sure who is at fault but I'm certain it's not my computer or both drivesas they work for so many bluray. And it seems remote this could be Cineplayeras well. I'm guessing anyone trying this bd on a computer will find thesame results.Also I found the ""digital copy"" is worthless as it is lower resolution thanI would ever watch, it's not even 480p at 720x306, far below what I paidfor and wanted to see, after all it's supposed to be bluray (1920x1080)."
+3476,1,Yuk,"These filters impart a foul chemical taste to the water and ice cubes for the first couple of weeks. I thought I got a bad batch, but I experienced the same thing the second time I ordered them. I intend to try another brand next time if I can find one.Yes, I did flush it first as instructed."
+3477,2,6--Year-Old (and I) Loved It,"My six-year-old son brought this title home from his school library. We read it together several times, and one night I found him meticulously copying a page from the book. My son hated to return the book, and I knew I had to buy it--for both of us! It tells a little-known story about Washington in a charming, beautifully illustrated manner that everyone (especially dog lovers) will love."
+3478,1,Agreed,I agree totally with the review above- Im losing interest FAST- so fat that i dont listen to then anymore- bye bye DT
+3479,2,Decent game which is easy to play,"This is easy to play and fun.Not a strict wargame, but an easy-going diversion.Simply a fun game, if you like war stuff."
+3480,2,the best movie I ever seen,"this movie really deserves 5 stars.It's the the Lord of the rings best movie.The actors are very good, they are the best actors of the world.The plot is very good, there was not a lot of battles and during them we don't see all details.I was a little bit disappointed with the two towers but the return of the king is amazing.We see Frodo and Sam climbing the mount doom and destruct the ring, when Aragorn the new king...The special effect are great, it's very good adaptation of the book.I highly recommend it!."
+3481,2,Wonderful fragrance!,"This is a very hard product to find. I bought it on Amazon from a company called Perfumania. Unfortunately, I did not get to rate them in time, but they are GREAT SELLERS! I would recommend them to anyone. They even sent me a sample of another great fragrance in with my order. Thank you Perfumania!"
+3482,2,One of the Funniest Things I Have Ever Seen,"If anyone is familiar with the popular T.V. Show that Pee Wee Herman had they know that the concept of ""Children's"" humor was often pushed to the limits. This HBO special however is not for children in any way shape or form. Its crude, a little low brow and extremely funny. Once he got his own show, it was toned down a little bit, but this is the rough beginnings at is very very funny for long time fans of the show and new comers."
+3483,1,does not work with leigh jig,This bit has a 10 degree cutting angle-Leigh dovetail jigs require an 8 degree bit
+3484,2,Filling in my collection of assembler books,"This isn't the best assembler book, but I was looking to fill in a collection, having been an assembler programmer. Good in its emphasis on using the emulator - who has access to a mainframe for learning purposes anymore?"
+3485,1,"not reccommended for infants, not accurate","I was ""told"" by doctor that the ear scan thermometers are not very accurate for infants, and found this to be true. You can take the temperature of the baby three times in a row, and get a different reading, each time. We use a standard digital thermomter under the armpit, or recatally, for accuracy. This item is overpriced, and when it comes to the critical neccessity of having an accurate temperature to determine illness in an infant, it is just too much to chance. I have heard these are more consistent in toddlers, so save it for when baby gets older. We are sticking with the tried and true.Don't waste your money or time, in fact, ask your doctor, they never reccommend these to babies under a year."
+3486,2,Great,"Great product you get what you pay...beautiful, great size, looks and sound gread I have coneccted whit the Yamaha RX-V671Clear and cristal sound"
+3487,1,Take some responsibility,"I'm more than a little offended at all the reviews that imply that liberals would like this stuff. I consider myself a real died-in-the-wool liberal, but give me a break. I don't know ONE family that has purchased a home during this recent housing explosion that moved because they wanted better schools. They want a bigger, fancier house - period. And they buy expensive SUV's, etc to go with it. Very low income families have trouble getting their kids to good schools; two income middle class families can afford places with good schools that won't put them broke. In fact, the house they moved from probably had schools just as good as where they're moving to. Geez..."
+3488,2,Fantastic Show and Incredible Lead,"Whether the show was an intended one-off or was cancelled doesn't really matter. I have heard that Marty Shaw only wanted to do one series and it has been my fervent wish that he (and Joe Ahearne) would revisit the character of Father Jacob. That being said, I will back away from the pedantic kool-aid now.Upon reading the synopsis, you may think that the story (certainly it's type) has been told ad nauseam, but this in my opinion, is one of the best. It's highly entertaining and I found it to be thought provoking as well. The changing view of the Catholic Church was tackled head on.All in all, a wonderful show which completely engages you and makes you pull it out for multiple viewings. Well worth the cost."
+3489,1,just what I was looking for,I would rather exercise in my home and wanted some sort of dancing. To me it is more fun than just regular exercises. It is perfect.
+3490,1,"This CD is not bad, but it still seems a little rusty.","Jennifer Daniels has joined the girl with a guitar club that has become a part of the pop rock music of today. She does have a powerful voice, but at times it tends to overpower the rest of the musical sound. The entire CD mix does not seem to have the feel of a professional finish. It sounds more like they ran out of time and money so they had to go with what they had already recorded. With a little more time to determine what direction she wants her music to go perhaps she will have a better sound. As of now I think there will be those who will enjoy her offbeat melodic sounds and there will be those who will feel that her lyrics and her sound are not their favorite. She is better in concert, so if you are disapointed with the CD sound I recommend seeing her live because then she gets a better mix for her sound."
+3491,2,A good end to a great trilogy,"This book was very enjoyable, the first being Lord Valentines Castle (A masterpiece), the second Majipoor Chronicles (A dissapointing compilation of short stories), and finally Valentine Pontifex, which was more in the ilk of the first in the series. The book was well written and held my interest from start to finish. My only minor criticism being that some of the earlier characters, whilst present were not explored further or made much use of in this the final rendition. Still a great book and worth a read."
+3492,1,Troblesome...,These games are very hard to play and figure out. Most of them you almost have to cheat to finish them. Just like on one of them you have to set you alarm clock to a specific time to catch a late night clue.
+3493,1,Bad Old Bach,"It's performances like these that give baroque performance a bad name. How many of these graceless, metronomic performances have we all suffered through? The cello is ridiculously prominent, as if it has its own mike and wants to be a solo instrument."
+3494,2,Easier to use this for some applications.,Not just for extending like making a 50 ft. out of two 25 ft.A regular long phone cord brings a phone *plug from the wall to you. This on that same chord brings a phone *jack from the wall to you.For instance buy short 3 foot cords and leave them permanently on the phone and other devices. Now just unplug and plug each device in and out this thing. Which is way faster if it is difficult to unplug wires from the phone itself (because the wire is held onto the phone with locking tabs on the bottom of the phone which takes a long time to unhook).
+3495,2,its good,this game is fun...its alot different then the other 6 games hes done...it just seemed like it was the same thing coming out over and over again...but this one is wayyy different and wayy more fun to play..its grandget it
+3496,2,This is a fantastic album,"Wow! What a great find this was. Every track is just awesome and the album is not repetitive, there is a lot of variety. This is one of the few albums I have that I can listen to over and over and enjoy it every time. The production and vocals on this album are top notch."
+3497,2,"Low-cost, Delicious and Easy-to-make Yogurt!","I got the Salton YM9 yogurt maker for Christmas of 2004, so I've had a full year to really test the machine and hone my yogurt-making skills. The Salton yogurt maker is a no-frills, budget appliance; it is not one of those fancy, gourmet Euro-Cuisine or Donvier makers, which come with individual-sized glass jars and cost twice as much as the Salton. No, the Salton YM9 is a plastic, plug-in model, and it does the job FINE. I wanted to make my own yogurt because store-bought yogurt is costly, and, if you read most ingredient labels, is often made with high-fructose corn syrup. I prefer the 1-quart container because I make a big batch of plain yogurt once a week, and then add pureéd frozen fruit and Splenda to flavor it as I desire. It's a healthful breakfast food or snack. I highly recommend this item."
+3498,1,Not a good thing,"I was disappointed. This pruning scissor cut through only very thin branches well, but dulled in days and became hard to use. Uncomfortable handles, too. Not what I would call a heavy-duty tool."
+3499,2,GREAT BUY FOR A LITLE PRICE,"I bought this book because I wanted to learn how to make comic books.This help me some what, it talks more about how to make zines and how to publish them. But I still found this book use full because it gives tips on how to create your on book, how to make home made paper and new ways of designing the exterior and interior of your home made book.Over all it is a good buy and is helpful to anyone who enjoys art and printmaking like my self!"
+3500,2,Yule Be Wiggling Clear Past the Christmas Season,"We got my 20 month old son this DVD a few weeks before Christmas and let him have it so he could enjoy it for a while. Well it is well past Christmas and he is still enchanted by the singing, dancing and wiggling. We love the fact that they are not afraid to sing Christian songs in today's world. The constant action and quick moves into following segments keep his attention and keep him dancing. It's great exercise and entertainment for him and we, as parents, can tolerate this program a lot better than some other children's shows (large purple dinosaur, which I will not mention)."
+3501,1,"Cute, but cheap product","I got the belly button ring for myself, which is very cute, but it didn't last only but about 2 weeks (maybe less)when the bottom part of it that dangles, fell off. The bottom part is the only thing that makes it a playboy bunny item, and now it's just a regular belly button ring. Cute, but cheap."
+3502,1,Don't be suckered,"It seems like a great idea, but it doesn't work. This scanner never once produced a clean line of text for me, and was absolutely baffled by Italian and by font variations. I wasted a good bit of time and $20 shipping costs on this lemon."
+3503,2,Awesome Game!,"I absolutley love this game. The guns are amazing, and the graphics are good. You can play as three different characters and each are awesome. The point of the game is to take out General Song's ""Deck of 52"". There are other factions like the Russian Mafia(My personal favorite), China, South Korea, and the Allies. They're contracts have nothing to do with the deck of 52 but they usually involve blowwing things up. You get money for destroying things! You can hijack any vehicle, even a helicopter or tank! I love stealing helicopters and blowing up enemies to make extra cash. There's only one thing I have a problem with. The game is incredibly frustrating. I'm up to the Ace of Clubs in the Deck of 52 and it's so hard and I keep dying. Sometimes I feel like smashing the controller. Overall, the game's great!"
+3504,2,Fantastuc Four Rise of the Silver Surfer,"Great buy. If you like the first Fantastic Four, you will like this one also. Great special effects."
+3505,2,Easy and accurate,"Why pay more (and I paid but seven bills here for new, really)? Manual bulb EASY to use and very accurate with storage (more so, than one-time doctor's office visit during which you, perhaps, got angry over long wait)."
+3506,2,Great across-the-curriculum math resource w/ gorgeous art,"I can highly recommend this book to parents and teachers. It's well-written with characters that come alive through some of the nicest children's book art work I've seen this year.We used the tanagram puzzle pattern at the end of the book, and went on to make up our own, too. I think it's an excellent introduction to geometry.Plus we talked about ancient China vs. China today.You hear a lot about ""math across the curriculum"" and this book is such a great example of how that can work well for kids.Outside of the classroom, my son wants to read this book at bedtime, too!"
+3507,2,another perspective,"I thought it was a delightful and informative book and it gives me a much broader perspective on cats and their lives. Certainly it's not a how-to book.But I can relate to a lot of what he writes and have experienced it with my own cats...now I have a clue why they do some things.It's not THE definite book on cats, but then which book can be?When I read all the criticism, it really tells me about the reviewer and not anything about the book."
+3508,1,Robin Cook has the elements of a book that needs completion.,"Robin Cook left us wondering what happened to the hero, his girl, the martyr who was killed, and in general never bothered to finish the book. I guess he thought he was leaving us with the feeling of a monsterous plot left ongoing to harm us all. The initial plot had some promise, but was stretched to the point of unbelievability very rapidly. As a physician very familiar with the problems with managed care, even I found this book preposterous. Michael Palmer is a much better read."
+3509,1,"poor insulation, stainless exterior and rim only","I was very disappointed in this travel mug. It's listed as being stainless steel, but the stainless is on the exterior only. It's the worst of all worlds in that it's not really insulated very well, so the stainless exterior gets hot or cold, and the stainless rim leaves a metallic taste, yet the inside is plastic. So those wishing to have a stainless steel cup to get away from any suspected problems with plastics leaching phthalates are out of luck."
+3510,2,Wonderful!,"This is an amazing, wonderful book. Filled with just enough help that you will actually make something amazing using its techniques. Yes, there are projects complete with patterns, but there are also enough examples of what the author's students have done in her workshops that you are free to do just about anything with the patterns. Like I said, just enough help.She also explains how to figure out patterns of your own. The ones she gives you are fish, but if you don't like fish, there is an explanation of how to take a large photo and create something totally different using the same techniques. And finally, she shares the process for one of her large projects so you have an idea of where this method can go.If you are ready to take steps out of traditional piecing and applique and what to do something wild, this will help you take those first steps. I've got a couple of things I need to get through before I work on my first fish, but I WILL be working on one."
+3511,1,Useless for Palm PDA,Does not work with Palm One products. Sent an email request for tech support to Kensington Customer No-Service and still had not received a response after 8 days. Avoid - recommend the Linksys product.
+3512,1,Do NOT buy this,"This Cd player (Coby CXCD109BLK personalCD player with stereo) was almost as bad as not having any CD player , maybe worse ... I never got through one song with out it skipping like a six year old. You could almost just look at it and it will skip. As for the sound ? I couldn't tell you it skipped so much I really could not tell. I have found one use for it as a glass coaster and it still isn't very good for that."
+3513,2,Total Productive Management,"I'm a student want to see the catalog of this book, and want to read a view page about this book"
+3514,1,Misleading,The book was described as Product Dimensions: 9.1 x 6.1 x 1.1 inchesShipping Weight: 1.4 pounds. The item that arrived is 2.75 x 3.25 x.5 inches. This was a very disappointing experience.
+3515,2,"Wonderful, gives the small breeder a beacon of light!","This book is incredible, as a new Arabian breeder, I was feeling overwhelmed by the sheer amount of information and various breed types. I've read a number of books, but overall this one instills the knowledge that even I can have an impact on this beautiful athletic horse. AND it gives me a process and insights on how to go about it. THANK YOU Bazy and Mary Jane!!!!"
+3516,1,MY DOG'S LIPS ARE MISSING!,"I would love to review this item, but is has been more than 2 months since ordering, and I have yet to receive my dog's lips. I have received a couple of emails with excuses...but still no lips. I have paid and am still waiting. My dog had these lips in the past and loved them, but wore them out. I finally located new ones through this vendor and am still waiting. We are not happy. All we want for Christmas are our two front lips............Please Santa!"
+3517,2,Another good one,This is one of Debbie's better series. If this is that last in the Dakota series I'm going to miss the characters. Good reading.
+3518,1,Caution,"If you think that the Temptations without Paul Williams and Eddie Kendricks ( I don't even dare say David Ruffin who departed so early) is still the mythic group that the World has come to know and love, then go ahead and buy this material. But if you are like me and go by the name or the blurred pictures on the advertisement, you may end up thinking that you are victim of a sad joke. Don't."
+3519,1,they have to stop,"What is this?? all these punk...pussy bands sound like a bunch of teenagers in a garage band that have no talent. listen to the lyrics, sounds like sonnie and cher. dont listen to yellow card, blink 182, new found glory, or this. Try listning to Metallica, Stevie ray vaughn, Children of bodom. guns n roses, motorhead, even nirvana. Real music"
+3520,2,good sound quality,"I got this through amazon, but fomr some reason its not being sold by them, after one a few weeks. Well, anyways it works real good I think. I had it in a pocket and it still picked up the sound I wanted. It has a stereo mode that works well with the built in mics. If amazon sells it again, I recommend it."
+3521,2,Hauntingly Enchanting!,I highly recommend this CD. I have not found a CD since that is as ethereal as this one.
+3522,2,Tasty and Easy - A busy cook's favorite!,"Have enjoyed the easy to follow, tasty recipes repeatedly over the past 5 years. Especially like the soups! If you're seeking a good all-around basic 'down home' cookbook...this is a good one!"

+3524,2,STOP ALL THE HATING!,You can hate it or Love it. It does not matter Shady/Aftermath/G-unit is running rap period..50 makes hit records. He has a talanted crew and no one can mess with them..As far as Piggy Bank goes Jada and Fat Joe were dissing 50 for a while on the mixtapes he is just responding..Plus this will help Jada boost his sales since he cant seem to hit the million copies mark..If he is so good why cant he sell a million? Fat Joe sucks and should not respond to 50. And make was not loyal so he is OUT! what a stupid move on games part he should have kept quiet and and not got involved with 50's beef.
+3525,2,DSLR Hand Strap,I purchased this hand strap so that when I was taking photos where I need to move around a lot I could hold the camera more securely instead of of it swinging around my neck or having to hold it tightly. This strap is extremely easy to fit and use and gives me full control when shooting.
+3526,1,Didn't Work For Me,Easy enough to install with some adjustment but my 24 pound dog wiggled through in 30 seconds which defeats the purpose entirely.
+3527,1,Too stiff and hard to be comfortable,"Sadly, these slippers were not comfortable and hard to walk in beause they simply did not bend at all. They were too stiff and hard to be comfortable. A shame, because the material is very nice. But this company needs to learn how to make an indoor/outdoor sole that is flexible AND tough enough for driveway runs."
+3528,1,Broke two of them in about fifteen minutes...,"I agree with both the reviews that are currently here. This is a great, fun product, for both myself and my cat, yet it breaks way too easily.The first one broke after about ten minutes of play. The line snapped, and spending over an hour trying to fix it, I failed. I even called Bamboo customer service to see if they had any tips on fixing it, but they never called me back.I sent it back as defective, and Amazon sent me a new one. That one too, broke right away, with the same problem in about five minutes.I sent that one back today, and I'm awaiting my refund from Amazon.As somebody else here said, and as my dad suggested, use a real fishing rod which isn't cheaply made like this piece of junk."
+3529,1,"Creases paper, Jams",Have two of these printers. Both began creasing the center of paper after a short period of use. Creases got worse and they started to jam. Went to Brother online tech support. Was told to use other paper. Emailed back that I used high quality paper but was told that was the cause. Not so. This seems to be a common problem with this printer and Brother will not acknowledge. Past Brother printers work great. Not sure I will try another Brother.
+3530,1,Aluminum Products,I purchased the SIGG aluminum water bottles to be more environmentally friendly; however I just learned stainless steel is the better material of choice. Aluminum although light weight has to be lined with something to make sure the contents are safe for drinking. Usually it is lined with baked on epoxy (toxic) or ceramic (can crack). I have also heard aluminum toxicity has been linked to many health conditions.
+3531,1,What Happened??,"omg!! This is Josh?? My mom bought the Greek album set for me two weeks ago and I just watched it today. I could cry!! What's happened to him and why? I forgot I had the concert until my mom told me about a progrm on Arts & Entertainment this morning. That's when I saw Josh and remembered I had the concert!! I ran to put it in the player and saw someone totally different. We both said the same thing, it isn't Josh. Then we realized it was. How horrible. It makes me so sad because he was so darling and a terrific singer. Since I'm taking voice and going to a performing arts school, I've been a fan because Josh is young too. He needs to get a voice coach and go back to his exercises. I feel so bad doing this but his DVD is really bad. Or maybe I'm just outgrowing him. Dunno. All I really know is that I didn't like this DVD."
+3532,1,Disappointed,"The book reads more like a polemic than a social history. Some of the material is interesting, but the author's analysis is weak, and his conclusions are frequently not supported by the facts. The book for the most part is trite and devoid of acute insight. I was hoping to find an even handed account of this tragic conflict, and was truly disappointed."
+3533,2,"""Strays"" will grow on you...give it a chance!","I agree with many that this is not the Jane's of our highschool days but it still rocks. When I first listened to it I didn't think much about it but with every listen, I like it more and more. The production is not as raw as previous Jane's recordings which ironically caused it to suffer some. This is a grown up Perry Ferrel singing, not the drug addict psycho Ferrel. It fits my more mature outlook on life. I recommend you go out and buy it."
+3534,1,NICE CD.......Front 2 Back!,Randy was one of my favs and this one was hot for ME! Oh and As far as Luv Thang goes thats a duet with Ms Karyn White herself....One of my favs off the cd and of course Gigolo was funky and she'd gotta a Lady.....Man this band was tight to bad they did'nt get the props that they deserve. Tight unit at best......I am a Gypsy so I KNOW!
+3535,1,A SPLIT OPINION REVIEW FOR ME ABOUT THIS CD!,"I heard lots about this album that it was their very first debut and they were compared as the earlier Beatles and maybe The Rolling Stones I guess. With a different style of rock'n roll for the brothers Gibb Barry, Maurice and Robin. Because one of them is from England born and the two raised in Australia is a complete strange story but true. Their style of music is a colaboration of soft, heart & soul melodies and hard pop rock temple beats they did as a musical act during the mid sixties!"
+3536,2,highly recommended provocative,this film is absorbing and the acting is thrilling. it deserved all the awards it could get
+3537,1,Choice Quality Stuff/Today,"Choice Quality Stuff/TodayThis is a very bad recording of a Great Band, I wish I could Get my money back."
+3538,1,It was just as I expected i do not care to have to write in a whole paragraph to give a good rating. Failing on Amazon's part,It was just as I expected i do not care to have to write in a whole paragraph to give a good rating. Failing on Amazon's part
+3539,2,Another good season,"The second season of Full House is excellent. The men are more developed now and we can settle in and watch the children grow up. Jessie's hair has been cut short and he's tackling his music career.Still cheesy, but that's okay. Sometimes we need a dose of what life could be like in our make-believe worlds. We meet the Beach Boys for the first time in Full House as they begin singing (They are seen in other episodes throughout the series run).This is just an overall good show!"
+3540,1,"Please, Prof... DON'T DO IT!","If you're a professor out there trying to see if this book is any good... please, don't buy it. It's horrible. It's practically in Greek and I don't think Plato could've understood it. My class is going quite well and I understand the material. I just wanted to review the text for the final because it's departmental. I feel stupider for having opened it! I used a friend's text instead. Please... look elsewhere!(Sorry to any student who've already had to buy it.)"
+3541,2,I've heard most and this is one of the best of the P.V.,"I wrote an extensive paper for my doctorate in music about John Tavener's ""The Protecting Veil"" and I listened to most of the recordings available through 1999; and this is one of my favorites. I also enjoyed the original Steven Isserlis recording, the Raphael Wallfisch recording and the Yo-Yo Ma recording, but this recording was very polished and beautifully done. I think most people who enjoy Tavener will enjoy his unique textures in ""The Last Sleep of the Virgin,"" this is also a new favorite Tavener piece of mine. You won't be disappointed with this recording!"

+3543,2,Jane Horrocks-The Big Voice of L.V.,Great listening. What fun to find another cd as good as the first. I would highly recommend this cd to all who enjoyed the first. Good music.Great song selection.
+3544,2,Captivating,"Very simply, I was unable to put this book down. Not unlike some of the other reviewers I too was on my way to Boston on business whilst reading this ""glued to my seat"" book. For the first time, I can say that I was pleased for all the flight delays as I managed to finish reading this book on route. I am an avid reader and can say without reservation that Rapid Descent was easily as good as any of the books being written by some of the better known authors, such as Crichton, Grisham, Cook etc to name a few of my favorites. Well Done Dr. Jack when's the next one....."
+3545,1,Do not buy this for your car,"The PocketDock is much thicker than the standard plugs and it does not have a locking catch mechanism.So, if your ipod is in a case with a cut out for a standard plug, you need to remove your case to use the PocketDock.If you have not case, your iPod can easily become unplugged from the PocketDock because the plug does not lock.Lastly, the plug offers a USB LineOut, presumeably to power your iPod but in most cars there is noise from the cigarette lighter that affects the line out in the PocketDock.My solution, charge the iPod in the car and use the headphone jack line out, but only when the battery is dangerously low. In general I use the PocketDock because the sound from the other end is so, so, so, so much better.The PocketDock would be a good device, if it 1. Where thinner, 2. Had a locking mechanism, and 3. Integrated a clean power filter from Car Cigarette lighters."
+3546,1,Completely useless,"If you're studying for the A+ Certification and you haven't traveled back in time to the year 2001, this is NOT the book for you. While I'm sure this was useful for whatever version of the A+ exam was being floated around in the pre-9/11 era, the information in this book is now completely obsolete. There's a reason this is (currently) available for 69 cents. When it comes to IT books, check the publishing dates.Drop some money on the newest edition of Mike Meyer's A+ Certification All-In-One Exam Guide. (You know, the ~1100 page one.) I just passed the 2006 version of the A+ yesterday using that book as almost my only study material."
+3547,2,Tight,"This is a tight CD from Artillery, this kinda reminds me of the old school Memphis rap that come out in the mid 90's."
+3548,1,May I please give this no stars?,"I have reached an age where I no longer feel the need to read a book to the bitter end to ""give it a chance"". I did feel vaguely guilty that I decided to end the struggle after the first few chapters - but not enough to put myself through more torture. I am glad to see, that while I am in the minority, I am not alone. Boring! Don't waste your time or money."
+3549,1,A TOTAL DISGRACE,"I agree 100% with Johnny Boy (another reviewer)that this album is a total disgrace to Willie Nelson, and never should have been released. Luckily, I did not buy the CD, but I listened to the soundbites, and that was enough to turn me off. And I will also stay away from anything the American Legends label puts out.It's too bad we cannot issue a zero rating, because one star is really too high for this album."
+3550,2,Season 2 Release...finally!,"The Season 2 is finally coming on April 3, according to tvshowsondvd.com. Watched the first episode of season 2 here on Amazon, and it will be well worth the wait. See the link here that gives specifics. [...]"
+3551,1,I'm really rating the listing...,Consumer alert - this is the exact title being sold under a different listing on Amazon for about 1/5 the price. All copies are both Don McLean records and Madacy Label Group.
+3552,1,disappointing,"I agree with the ""reader from New York."" I read Lucky a couple weeks ago, so it's not fresh in my mind, but the fact is, I really didn't learn much from it. Sebold talks plenty about her own life and her family, but the reader sees very little of her recovery process. The book is ultimately not so much about rape as it is about the author. This is not a bad thing in that it indicates that Sebold does not let the rape define her, but I think the book would be a much stronger piece of work if the author had made more of an effort to put her rape into a greater context and provided more perspective. Given that there are other memoirs by rape survivors out there, Sebold just doesn't give us enough reason to read hers. Nancy Venable Raine and Patricia Weaver Francisco both do much better."
+3553,2,What Does A Really Creative Plot + Great Writing Equal?,"The Poet! This book was really fun. While I am a fan of Connelly's Harry Bosch series, I was still able to fall for Jack McEvoy. I thought that Connelly's premise was very creative and great for bibliophiles.The killer uses Poe's literary works as a basis for his murders. What a fabulous way for Connelly to merge his genius with the brilliance of Poe - one of the genre's greats.I just could not put this one down. I found myself reading under the covers with my book light. A fun vacation from reality."
+3554,2,Metronome,The Metronome is easy to use and has options I haven't even tried yet. It is well worth the money.
+3555,2,Perfect for Batman fans!,This book is a fun one to just chill and read. It gets right down into the specific details on what exactly Batman does and the steps it takes to do the things he does. For example it teaches you how to throw a Batrang.
+3556,1,Junk,"Way to go Crucial, build modules way past the capabilities of the silicon so you can put fast numbers on the box. What's that? It fails after a short period of use? Ship it anyway!Oh, and when they call to ask for a refund, give them credit towards their choice of some other useless piece of Crucial junk instead! Yay!!!"
+3557,2,convenient,My main reason I bought this was for the separate nap setting which allows me to set the alarm during the day for a nap without changing the normal alarm settings I use in the morning. The display brightness is fine for me. I don't use the radio so I'm not a good judge of its quality.
+3558,1,Not very good.,"This reads like a quick attempt to cash in on the X-FILES. There is nothing here that hasn't been done before, and been done better. The author pulls out all the usual suspects -- Area 51, captured alien craft, government cover-up -- nothing we haven't seen before. It's the kind of stuff X-FILES did in its first season (five years ago!) No real point in reading this one, I see why it went straight to paperback."
+3559,2,And now for something competely different,"It's a great concept, but I find the keys they choose to map for certain game keysets to be a little off. Overall, its a cool concept and I use the EQ2 keyboard all the time - even though it's really not the best."
+3560,2,Gentle Beauty,"Though Krauss and the rest of Union Station are obviously extrodinary talented musicians, they don't hit you over the head with showy songs. The music draws you, instead, to gradually appreciate their talent and the beauty of the songs. ""Let Me Touch You for Awhile"" stands out."
+3561,1,breaks too easily,"I went through two of these very quickly. It's a shame, I wanted to like them. The sound is pretty decent but they are just too fragile. I wore them in the gym and for running out doors. They are very fragile and snap very easily"
+3562,1,Norpro 14 inch x 12 inch stainless steel cookie sheet,"I don't like the Norpro stainless steel cookie sheet. It's flimsy, cheap. I got what I paid for. I like stainless steel products but I'm learning that you really have to pay attention to the quality."
+3563,2,Smells great for the 30 seconds it lasts,"This is an absolutely beautiful fragrance that's both spicy and floral. However, like all Tocca products, the staying power is ridiculously awful. You'll need to apply once an hour, and that's no exaggeration."
+3564,2,Interesting Insight into a Perplexing World,"I just finished reading Dear Alice. I found it extremely helpful in preparing myself mentally for an upcoming trip to China. The letters were quite authentic and honest, often revealing small details about the enigma of life in China. While I can't assume that I'll have a similar experience to that of the writers, I feel comforted to know that others have dealt with China and survived. A great book if you're curious about this foreign culture and an especially illuminating book for those of you from the United States and who are interested in the ways Americans might react to ""The land on the other side of the looking glass."""
+3565,1,Ding Dong not Ping Pong,Any film that is only 7 minutes long and has a flash-back sequence clocking in at around 3 minutes into the film is destined to disappoint.The pacing is off the action is repetative and the film is humorless. A study in contrast on how to do it right can be found in De Duva (The Dove 1968) by Coe/Lover.
+3566,1,The Blade Does Not Last Long,"I was very disappointed to see the blade bcome dull after a relatively light use. Disappointed? Yes,"
+3567,2,A Great Organizer,"I have a small bathroom in my apartment with almost no counter space. Having the suction-cup basket allows me to keep a couple of choice items out of the medicine cabinet within easy reach (mounted to the mirror). It's great for toothbrushes, razors, and the like. I would definitely recommend it."
+3568,1,Going Home review,"I was very disapointed in this dvd. I wasn't aware it was a documentary,guess I should have looked at it closer than I did.There was way too much talking, not enough singing. Some of my favorite songs were just cut off in the middle of the song for more talking and interviews.Is there any way I can return it for a different dvd or am I just stuck with it?"
+3569,1,terrible,Why did I waste my time watching this movie? It was on the first page of popular picks. It was beyond bad.
+3570,2,How do you make Anne Frank's story relevent to todays teens?,All the kids in my are read Anne Frank's diary. My daughter couldn't get through it. How do you make the story relevent and up to date so that todays teen can relate to what happened in the Holocaust? Cherie Bennet and Jeff Gottesfeld have written the answer. Anne Frank and Me engaged my daughters attention from the first page and she finished it the same day. I also read it that same day. It is immensely readable and factual. It speaks todays teen letting them feel a part of a event that changed and rocked the world. Please read it and see for yourself.
+3571,1,betting maidens and 2 year old,This book was a disappointment.It was more of a historical account of specific horses and races rather than a how to as it proclaimed.It was very hard to follow and I kept waiting for him to get to the point. Very boring and monotonous.
+3572,2,One of the best performed version in the music history,"The first time I listened Il Barbiere performed by Abaddo et al. it was in a double-cassette released by Deutsche Gramophon. I have been looking for this version on CD during several years because is one of the best performed Rossini's opera buffa. The color of the orchestra, tempi, and chorus are incredible. Special mention for Hermann Prey's performance, an excellent bariton. I recommend this classical for all opera fans."
+3573,1,Way off the Mark,"Although I did pass the exam, it was with no help from this book, the exam questions are nothing like the reall exam, save yourself the time, use another study guide and get yourself self test software"
+3574,1,why???,"If you already own Stargate SG-1 Season 1, just watch the first two episodes again. If not, get it, it's $2 more but it has this movie and 20 additional episodes."
+3575,1,I want my [money] back!,"I was the only one in my senior English class who loved the epic poem. Several years later I bought a copy of it at a comic book shop.For some reason, I liked Christopher Lambert, and I thought he would be a good actor for a movie based on this classic tale.Man, was I wrong!Aside from the names of the hero and one of the villians, this movie has almost nothing in common with the poem. It's got nothing in common with a good movie. It's a travesty!The acting, even with a so-called ""top talent"" like Christopher Lambert, is awful. The setting is almost non-existant, and the plot, ah yes, the plot ....I knew this movie would reek within the first 10 minutes. I mean, I tried really hard to be open-minded, but it was to no avail.Spare yourself the pain and skip the movie. Settle in on a dark winter's night by a fire, put on some quiet music, and read the epic poem. You'll be glad you did."
+3576,2,Adorable,"Wow, my 6 year old son and I looked through it for the first time and were amazed. Then we felt downright inspired. We actually made a fairy house, and we have this book to thank. and Amazon. Amazon is right on! This is good to leave available in the fam. room. Make that fairy house!!!"
+3577,1,Kindle ed. was messy,"Lady Knight: Book 4 of the Protector of the Small QuartetI purchased the kindle edition of this book and was dissapointed by the formatting. There were numerous punctuation and spelling errors ( particularly any word with a double f in it) and a whole section where dialogue was supposed to be in italics to differentiate between characters was hopelessly jumbled. I hope that this author's others works faired better in the kindle format, because I love this series and this book."
+3578,2,great price works great,this mandrel works great no screwing up or down just pull down the shaft doesn't unscrew when you drill through a wall
+3579,2,Great product,It is a fantastic product! My hair looks natural and I receive many compliments on how much younger it makes me look!
+3580,2,Awesome!,"I loved it! I thought it was great, and couldn't put it down. I reccomend it to anyone, but it may be too disturbing for some people! But I loved it!"
+3581,1,Low Quality,I purchased this 2 years ago for $ 50 which is a ripoff. This radio gets a terrible connection and has static like crazy. Plus it's so small you might lose it and also lose the money you paid for it. Don't buy this am/fm radio go out and get a better and more reliable one.
+3582,2,Great workout earphones,"Great workout earphones, stays put and withstands all the sweating I do! Only wish the cord was so squirmy."
+3583,1,Complete garbage!,"I agree with Dino ""nada""s June 10, 2003 review. Way too much time rendering and compiling a 1 hour 25 minute video. On average, the program would crash twice before anything (if anything) is copied onto a DVD. By that time, more than half a day is wasted.Amazon.com requires that a rating of one to five stars be awarded in order for my review to be posted. I am forced to rate this product a one star; one star too many.Enough said!"
+3584,1,...It's Rave Time!,"If you thought the ""bootleg"" compilations were a good idea, you'll probably love this. On the other hand, you could make your own version: tape everything ELP ever did, run half of it backward, loop the rest, and then play some synthesized rhythms over the top(any toy keyboard will sound fine). The first cut is interesting on the first listen, but that's probably due to the novelty, or maybe sheer disbelief of what you're hearing. The interview with Emerson in the liner notes casts some doubt on whether Lake and Palmer had anything to do with this mess other than cashing royalty checks. Three CDs for [$$$] sounded like a great deal...it's not."
+3585,2,"Uplifting, funky.....","I have not heard one Wayman Tisdale CD that I don't like! Each one is uplifting, funky.... it's all there!"
+3586,1,too general,"This book is about incorparating, and only at its very end it becomes about incorporating in Nevada. If you need to know about the many kinds of corporations available or how to raise money for you company,go ahead and buy it. But remember you are going to find an entire chapter on general tax strategies and few lines about Nevada tax information, ending with:""if you require further information, please contact the Department of Taxation at (702) 687-4820"". I hope that having the number already here may save you the cost of this book...."
+3587,2,"Great music, see it performed LIVE","You should buy this CD before seeing its premier performance in Trois-Rivieres, Canada. It's a great collection of songs, with many different styles represented. Subtle textures to ultra dynamic power from a symphony are included..."
+3588,2,Great printer...does more stuff than youc an imagine,"This printer is great. Better than most of the Epsons I tried. It's built very well, too.Also there is a way to enable DVD printing...use your imagination (ie google :) )"
+3589,1,Not that interesting,"This book meandered around. I could barely get through it but did only because I've enjoyed some of Hunters other books. I was not invested in either of the main characters unfortunately. I wasn't awed by how they made out the moment they met in the garden. I still don't get the heroines connection to the king either, but really don't care what it was because it was uninteresting. After reading it I even forgot the heroes and heroine's name! And not a good sign especially when he was in By Design which I liked. Oh yeah, Mark...or Marcus if you will. The one bright spot was David from the Arrangement showing up, as well as Addis from By Possession. That was it for me so it gets an extra star for those two hunks."
+3590,1,a disappointingly un-original remake,"I have to disagree with brir@erols.com on this one. Having listened to -- and loved -- NOW's previous CD ""Smoker's Delight"", all I can say is they must've been too delighted with the smoke to create a new album this time around. Rather than expanding on the brilliantly mellow direction of the previous release, it seems like the guys in the band were in creative suspended animation for the intervening years: The whole thing is literally variations on the tracks from ""...Delight"" -- and not even interesting variations! At the very least Warp could've promoted this as variations on previous material rather than passing it off as an original release...I guess it sounds really good if you don't know that they're stealing their own work. Buy the 5-star ""Smoker's Delight"" disc instead!"
+3591,2,"If you need it, buy it","As the ""Jastrow"" is a needed dictionary, there is not question, if it is good or not. It just is.This edition is fairly priced and the print is also ok, not very good or big, but ok."
+3592,1,Not really a dictionary - more a regional glossary,"This little book is an informal glossary of regional (mis)pronunciations, rather than an actual dictionary of the Cajun dialect.If you want a few good-natured laughs at rural Louisiana speech, you'll enjoy this book. If you are serious about studying the Cajun dialect, look elsewhere for a comprehensive dictionary."
+3593,1,Pretty disappointing.,"I've been a long time fan of -ziq. I don't know about anyone else, but take a quick hit from Lunatic Harness/Brace Yourself, and then put this on. There is no comparison. Much of this cd just seems like the regular ""its crazy electronic music/madness style"" filler. No substance, little originality at this point."
+3594,2,A Suitable Conclusion for the first four X-Wing novels.,"Mike Stakepole does a nice job of wrapping up the first four books of the X-Wing series in ""The Bacta War"". It is clear after reading more than one of these novels that the author has a real flair for descriptions of combat and dog-fights in space. This stems somewhat from the fact that the books are loosely based on the ""X-Wing"" and ""TIE Fighter"" computer games released by LucasArts in the mid-1990s. Fans of these games will find a near instant familiarity with many of the terms used in those games, as will long time fans of the movies who have paid attention to the chatter of pilots. And indeed it seems to be the space battles which this book is based around. Although I found the majority of the book enjoyable Stakepole really shines when surrounded by the chaos space combat. Buy this book for the intricate battle set pieces but not for a deep character driven story."
+3595,1,Oh - Zubin Mehta strikes again,"I wish Amazon would show the honest reviews first (on top). What can be said? Zubin the butcher destroyed this wonderful piece, as expected. I am not sure how he made it but he has absolutely no sense of timing, phrasing, expression. And worst part of all - he has absolutely no clue how to conduct. So the recommendation? STAY AWAY FROM THIS RECORDING!!"
+3596,2,"I wouldn't call it perfect , but no way ""BORING""","Unless your mind isn't able to grasp a game that takes more than 'button a,b,c,d and 'R' this or that... This game could never be called boring. It is, however, complex, challenging, and requires more thought than you usual shoot 'em up rpg.Ofcourse This review is opinion. Take it as such. Games like Diablo (I & II), Soul Reaver (yadda yadda), and The like do necessitate more thought. Now to jump down off my soap box, I, end my review with this: I enjoyed it, try it for yourself bfore formng an opinion from this or any other rev. ..."
+3597,1,Download version will not install,"I sure wanted to take advantage of a great sale price with this Amazon download version, and my computer runs dozens of games supported on XP (including the 3rd in this Runaway series), but this download would not install. Amazon support walked through it with me, confirmed that upon download the install button didn't work, and gave me the contact info for Pendulo Studios. After Pendulo ignored all requests for help -- they just don't care, I guess -- at least Amazon gave me a refund.I sure would like to start with the first game in this series, but it sounds like others have had some real issues with the DVD version as well -- so, perhaps I'll just ingore Pendulo and their products too from now on."
+3598,1,"Oh, this is just too bad...","I'm a fan of Kristen Bell's work, and she deserved better than this, frankly. The cover art makes one hopeful that PULSE is a zombie movie featuring the young and bright star of VERONICA MARS, but it disappoints to exhaustion. I don't know what the movie is about, frankly. Something about some attractive teenagers using text messaging and cellphones constantly, and then their souls are sucked out by gray, bald demons. I guess. Again, I don't know. Whatever happens, it isn't scary, it's just sort of boring. The entire film is the color blue, so if you watch it through a pair of 3-D glasses and keep your left eye closed, you won't be able to see anything.Also, Christina Milan should never be in a movie again. She is a very poor actress. Avoid this movie, but keep your eye out for Kristen Bell's future work."
+3599,1,"Bad singing, bad songs, bad everything.","I picked up this CD for $1.95, when i was hunting for random dance music for my collection. let me tell you: it wasn't worth it. this band is an assault on my ears. i'm not someone who is obessessed with interesting or even good music. but this is really the pits. in all likelihood, if you don't know them personally, are sane, and are over 12, you will probably hate VCR with a passion. I can really not see dancing to any of this. the lyrics are absolutely terrible. the synth sounds are cheesy and have badly written parts. the singing isn't even singing, it's just yelling semi-rythmically. and i'm a fan of hip-hop. but this is just bad. i urge you to not buy this CD. just look at the fact that as of now, some people are trying to sell it for a quarter here on amazon."
+3600,2,nice product!,"I have recently decided that glass is the way to go to microwave or for storage!I bought two sets of these dishes .This allows me to make and save two portions for my husband and I, and more for later. The glass dishes are very easy to take care of with no worries of chemicals from plastic containers. my husband who hates to clean this type of item even offer himself to wash them now. I also freeze some food away in these and they are easy to microwave. I use them every day and haven't had any issues with them."
+3601,1,Martex towel,"Terrible quality...thin, poor dye. Fading despite careful washing.Not at all as advertised."
+3602,2,THIS BOOK WILL KNOCK YOUR SOCKS OFF!,"This book,Muggie Maggie by Beverly Cleary, is about a girl named Maggie who's class is starting to learn script.Maggie decides that she does not want to write in script. She tries it one time, and she wrote Muggie Maggie by mistake.After that, all of the kids started calling her Muggie Maggie. Finally one day she decided to write in script and her teacher was very proud of her decision. My favorite part was when the kids started to calling her Muggie Maggie!"
+3603,1,Platinum Engineers Reveal their secrets?,"I am very disappointed with the book.The book on the cover claimed: ""Mix Masters Platinum Engineers Reveal Their Secrets for Success"" but all we got was biographies and list of equipment they use with 1176 popping up almost on every other page.The question ""How much can you normally get done in a day"" just was the nail to the coffin.I read the book and I have not learned anything from it. If you are really bored on Winter night when there is a blizzard outside you can read it but I rather suggest you go to your studio and work on your music.The book is also pretty outdated, lots of stories about mixing on analog or digital tape.Solidly revised and updated new addition is needed from the author.Henry"
+3604,1,WONT LAST AND ONLY ONE YEAR WARRANTY,"I have purchased two of these percolators in the last three years. One to replace the other due the warranty being expired. Both stopped working shortly after the warranty. The first did not keep coffee hot and the second one did not work at all after a year or so, also heating problem. Prior coffee percolator from Farber purchased in the 80's, way back when, lasted many years so I purchased two again......both have been disappointing. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY. I am going to try a different brand. Too bad because I did like the way the coffee came out when it did work!"
+3605,2,Overall is good!,"My daughter likes it but I accidentally bought 2 and contacted amazon, was told I have to pay shipping to send it back. Well, it's not Amazon's fault, I just don't feel very comfortable, so 4 stars. :):) Well, I should rate it 5 actually. :)"
+3606,1,Its scroll is the worst among Logitech optical mouse,"The scroll is heavy, noisy and gets stuck sometimes especially forward. I have a cheaper white Logitech optical mice(USB/PS2) and it works great. The only thing I don't like from this previous mice is its bright color. So I bought this black one. Movement is the same but I could not scroll smoothly like the Logitech Optical Mouse (USB/PS2). It doesn't worth to return the item but I hate to touch the scroll of this mice. Try at a shop before you decide to buy it."
+3607,1,"Bought on a whim, glad it was cheap","My buddy & I got this movie after we found a cheap copy at a CD store... It was pretty enjoyable, but more for laughs than anything. The acting was corny and the plot was horribly incoherent. Great special effects for the time, though... not to mention the creative gore scenerios. I particularly enjoyed the scene with the little girl's head exploding."
+3608,1,a disGRACE,There is only one Rear Window and that is Hitchcock's 1954 version with Grace Kelly and the irreplacable Jimmy Stewart. Why remake a flawless classic? Reeve and Hannah aren't even in the same league as Kelly & Stewart.Senseless in my opinion.
+3609,1,Lots of fun but didn't survive my 2 year old!,"Learn through music was a total hit with my daughter. she loved it so much that we bought every cartridge that went with it. After a couple of trips in the car, the screen became stuck on spot. It was like an invisible finger was constantly pushing one area. We loved the toy so much we bought another one and just thought we would be extra careful with it. No such luck. The next one just stopped working period (it wouldn't advance through the story-new batteries and all). I would buy yet another one if I thought it would last but I doubt it. Its a great idea but its no good if it won't work!!"
+3610,2,Helped sooth my nerves about being a first-time ESL teacher,"Although there wasn't much directly useful to my situation (Public middle school in Korea. I have classes of nearly 40 students and see each class once per week), the book helped me get an idea of what my role was going to be and what I needed to do in order to prepare. I have even been able to adapt a few of the activity ideas into my monster-sized classes. Personally, I would like to see a longer discussion about having large class sizes, and strategies for dealing with them, but obviously no one can write a book perfectly catered to everyone."
+3611,1,Interchangeable Superhero Tunes!?,I liked this song back when it was called 'Kiss from a Rose' by Seal. Sheesh!!
+3612,2,A Different Approach,"Black and Blue was an excellent book with a very different approach to domestic violence. What was so chilling was that the book begins where the main character's marriage ends. We never experience first-hand the abuse, nor do we meet Fran's husband. We only hear about him (for the most part) through her startling memories. This is a very realistic and honest account of domestic abuse, parent-child relationships and starting over. A must read."
+3613,2,Wonderful storage and seating!,"After looking at quite a few deck storage boxes I ended up with this one. It was EXTREMELY easy to assemble and a nice looking box. It looks like a nice bench, not a large cooler like some others I looked at. It is large enough for all of my seat cushions and nice looking also.And I hate when people rate a product unfairly because it was damaged in shipping. Give UPS 1 star, not the product!"
+3614,1,stop look and laugh,THIS ISN'T GOING TO BE NOTHING BUT CLIPS FROMSOME OF THEIR WORK.THE ONLY SHORT WILL BE ABIRD IN THE HEAD WHICH IS ONE OF MY FAVORITES.BUT JUST 1 SHORT DOESN'T JUSTIFY 4 OR 5 STARS.IWOULD GIVE IT ONLY 1 IF THE SHORT WASN'T INCLUDED.I HOPE COLUMBIA STARTS PUTTING 6 OR MORE SHORTSON DVD FROM THE STOOGES AGAIN INSTEAD OF JUST1 SHORT.
+3615,2,Touching:,"Having been blessed to have a wonderful Portuguese born mother, I grew up knowing the special story of the ""beautiful lady of Fatima"". Having also visited the shrine, I can tell you from the bottom of my heart, how lovely the shrine and story are. I own this film, a gift from my brother, and as I write this review my eyes are full of tears. You do not have to be a catholic or even a believer of the virgin Mary, but this film is a honest and simple telling of what happened in a small Portuguese village in 1917. You may be wonderfully surprised!"
+3616,1,"Eddie had the nerve to call this album ""Volume 1""","Don't hold your breath for Volume 2, if you do prepare to pass out. There will never be a Volume 2! Eddie I love you brother, but like George Lucas, someone in your camp needs to give you a little honesty. Just putting Eruption as the lead song in the ""Best of"" says it all, your ego is out of control.I didn't even purchase this when it came out and I'm a big fan of both versions of Van Halen. If you want the Best of Van Halen, make your own and wait until the Box Set comes out. Is there a Box Set coming out? Don't worry ol' Eddie is probably sitting on a whole bunch of material and I also see a live DVD with Dave as well.Eddie you should do an album of colaberations with different singers/musicians ala Santana Supernatural, now that would be a big time seller. From a big fan."
+3617,1,Broke right out of the box,The pump had a defective valve connector assembly that comes apart when the lever is lifted.
+3618,2,Robert De Niro and Billy Crystal are HILARIOUS!,"Comedies don't get much better than this. I think others have described the story line well enough, but they forgot to tell you how many belly laughs this movie will get out of you. If you happen to know a very Italian family, you'll laugh even harder.De Niro did an excellent job portraying a mobster with a panic disorder ... ""do *I* look like a guy who panics!!"" I didn't expect such comic genius from him. He holds his own and is perhaps even a bit funnier than Crystal (who is always pretty darn good).I own this movie and will take any opportunity to watch it. This move is right on from conception to casting to editing. It's a must have for anyone who loves a good comedy and especially for Crystal and De Niro fans. You'll be cracking up for days thinking about this one. I know I do!"
+3619,1,THIS DOES NOT WORK WITH DELL INSPIRON **NO STARS**,"Don't bother spending your money, it's not worth the $10 I spent for it. It is totally useless, and won't even turn the laptop on. A total waste!!!!!!!!"
+3620,2,fits good a bit expensive,"It fits my vacuum, but I found one at the store for about $1-$2 (7-8 dollars) cheaper. Not a huge difference, but dollars add up."
+3621,2,Nice story of the Olympic champions,"How nice for these skaters to be remembered in print for something other than one tough moment in their otherwise stellar careers - the Salt Lake Olympic Judging debacle. Smith gives a warm, intimate account of Sale and Pelletier, from their early training to their close personal relationship and other athletic triumphs. Recommend for fans of this pair, figure skating, and anyone who wants to learn more about this charming twosome and their REAL story....not just one moment."
+3622,1,Not for me,I enjoy good work but can not appreciate this movie. First of all most of the dialog is in Spanish but subtitles are available. Many sceens are an attempt at good artful shooting but begin to not make scence as to what is going on. The story does not flow well and is difficult to understand - maybe because I do not converse in Spansih. So does the sex scenes make up for it to qualify for a good erotic movie. NO - If you are looking for something to stimulate you and your concenting adult partner - this is not it unless she can translate for you.
+3623,2,Kicks your ass.,"This is a great exercise video if you've hit a fitness plateau. The music is pretty eighties funky and the moves are a little difficult, but it gets your heart rate WAY up there and really is quite energizing. Just when you think you're going to die, she stops and you actually feel really good."
+3624,2,Buy this CD and Dance to it!,"Musical purity is just wonderful for those who are into that. There is only one question that really matters: does it make you want to tap your foot, to dance? Does this music make you FEEL something? YES!!This is their best in a long time. It has a lot of the fun they deliver in a live concert. Glad to have you back guys! They are a great feel-good band with a lot of soul."
+3625,1,Where was the romance?,"I did not enjoy this book very much because the relationship between the heroine and the hero did not 'develop', or at least, I did not see it develop. One moment you find the characters very intimate, and the next minute they are total strangers. And then, at the end of the story, they 'discover' they fell in love with each other. Quite briefly, there was very little emotion in the story."
+3626,2,Great camera,"Overall, it's a great camera, quite small, works very well and is easy to learn and use. Battery pack lasts a good long time.On the downside, it's possible a camera can be TOO small. The buttons are quite small, which can be an issue for larger hands. Also doesn't have a lot of high end/manual features, so if you're looking for a lot of SLR-like features, this is more of a point and shoot."
+3627,1,GOOD BYE QUICKEN 2004,I am can not express my self how frustrated I was after I had loaded quicken 2004 on my XP system. I have been using 2003 successfully but 2004 version is soo slow. my system is 3.0ghz and 2 gb of ram and I could not believe it how slow it ran. The most ridicules part is that quicken 2004 will not revert database to 2003 version so I have to retype about two weeks of transactions!Need advice - steer away from this product!!! I would not use it even if it was for free!!!
+3628,1,Throw this in the GARBAGE... Pretty USELESS book...,"Well, somebody tried to imitate the Holy Quran from the muslim world and tried to add some spices to make the people think it is a nice book. It is so not the real holy quran. Holy Quran is unique, there is no other book like that, nobody could ever recreate a book like that. This book is totally rubbish and good for the garbage. Don't waste your money and time on this book."
+3629,2,Bought it as a gift for someone but it made me come back to sewing,I bought this book as a gift for my cousin. She is younger than me and wanted to learn to sew. I got this book on recommendation from a couple of my girlfriends. I began to look through it before wrapping it. This book made things very easy. I have fell back in love with sewing again.Now I have one also.
+3630,1,An Expected Disappointment,"Against my better judgement, I decided to use up some of my time reading this book. I received the book as a gift from someone I respect and the author is local, so I thought I would give it a read. Unfortunately, the author's work lived up to what I think must be typical of Oprah's Book Club works. It is extremely maudlin and has clunky and obvious plot devices. The author has some technical skill, and that is what merits the 2-star rating. Amazingly, this version actually has an appendix with suggested areas for discussion. This is quite pretentious.Don't waste your time with this one. Read some Faulkner or Sherwood Anderson and give this one to your grandmother."
+3631,1,Who would ever want to read this book?,"I can't believe anyone would want to read a gruesome book like this. I mean I like vampire books, but most of them are fiction ya know? This sounds like a very depressing story and I feel bad for the people involved in the whole thing"
+3632,2,A Great Variety of Christian Techno,"My favorites include bands like My Rubicon7 (an indie band) and Paradox(an indie from Australia)which have excellant Dance beats, synths, and background noises that would even make the most die-hard of Erasure fans cry from listening pleasure. The other songs are fast, slow, hard and soft. Some with better beats, and only a few with an annoying voice. The sound quality is subperb. Unfortunatly, a few of the songs remain an X-File mystery as to why they were considered ""Electra"" (i.e. THE LAST SONG)."
+3633,1,Maybe you'll have better luck than I,This went hay wire after a few months of use. The batteries were expensive also. I don't recommend this product but maybe I just got a faulty one. The control features were nice.
+3634,2,excellent shoe,The size is perfect and of great quality compared to the ones I got in JC Penny for $60 to $70. This is $30 but of much better quality.
+3635,1,Change to an older style,"I have always had a different style of potato masher, so this is a change for me. It is a better design, to be recommended for both potato mashing and for banana mashing as part of frequent loaves of banana bread."
+3636,2,cool gator,The first time I got this the container would not stay on there was something wrong .so I contacted the seller an they sent me a new one its great works well .I would definatly reccommend this to anyone .my kids love . it looks real in the pool.
+3637,2,Excellent service,"It was delivered in excellent conditions, I stongly recommend them, I was worried of the deliver time because I nedded for my boy's birthday but it arrived exactly on the time they agree."
+3638,2,No One Like Julio,"I've loved Julio's voice for years. His son is good but he is fantastic. Not talking about the person, just the voice. This disc is a great selection of his songs. Love it!"
+3639,1,Strictly for Fans,"Unless you're a rabid fan of Frampton it's kinda sad seeing him up there with this lacklustre band churning out those classics from Frampton Comes Alive - sure, his voice is totally intact, his guitar playing is all there and he looks healthy enough (although it's pretty hard reconciling this trim, greying and bespectacled mid-lifer with the image of that 70's rock star with the Roger Daltery-esque curls.) But it's a pretty shlocky concert and it just lack all the elements that defined him as a terrifically talented and cool star in the 70's.The sound quality (on DTS) is fine so I give this one two stars."
+3640,1,Worst mop ever!,It doesn't pick up the grime just moves it around...you think you get quality when buying a trusted name such as Mr. Clean. I can't believe this is on shelves...
+3641,2,"Bach: Cantatas, Vol 11 (BWV 136, 138, 95, 46) /Bach Collegium Japan Suzuki","Bach: Cantatas, Vol 11 (BWV 136, 138, 95, 46) /Bach Collegium Japan Suzuki is a recording under the direction of Masaaki Suzuki who leads the Bach Collegium Japan on NEC and Lufthansa German Air recording from 1999. Being a huge fan of Bach listening to this amazing series of Bach recordings is true bliss and once more Suzuki has created an amazing recording. Peter Kooij is tremendous and his performance is truly astounding. Highly recommended. 5/5."
+3642,2,good,i like the smell and the fact that it makes my hair soft and an amazing texture after using it. i used it on dyed black hair to make my hair have a blue black tint. so i dont really know the full results of it. i think it added a bit of a bluer tink to my black hair. deffently better then manic panic. i plan on growing roots and dying my roots blue so hopefully it works out.
+3643,1,A real disappointment,"""Night at the Museum"" has a great premise (and great promise) but it simply doesn't deliver. A lot of Hollywood energy was wasted on this film especially since Ben Stiller, a fine actor, has not much more to do than look scared and escape predators. It was particularly sad to see such stars as Dick Van Dyke and Mickey Rooney reduced to the little more than cameo roles they play. Robin Williams, however, is very good as Theodore Roosevelt.The film could have captured a wonderful innocence that reminded me of ""Home Alone 2"", this time with the protagonist as an adult/child rather than a young boy. ""Night at the Museum"" has some wonderful special effects but be warned that this film is not for very young viewers...the dinosaur scenes, especially near the beginning, can be truly frightening.""Night at the Museum"" tries hard but it never rings true."
+3644,1,Not the best gift.,This was a gift to a lover. All the other toys I've bought her seem to be fine. This one was too tough for her and she left it behind. Maybe this is a more advanced toy?
+3645,1,A HUGE disappointment,Being quite a fan of REM I was so disappointed to hear the album after all the solid reviews it received. I have yet to read a review of this album that was anything but positive. The tracks on 'Reveal' are completely lacking in drive and direction and are missing the strong melodies REM songs are known for. The album has four OK tracks at most. I've tried to listening to the album again and again but my opinion has not changed.

+3647,2,Good Product,"I bought this for crossfit and just sit ups in general. I definitely like it. Nothing too fancy here, but it is better than doing sit ups without it."
+3648,2,Master Microsoft Office 2000 Visually,"One of the best learning books out there, teaching Office 2000. MaranGraphics, deserve high praise, for compiling such a thorough, easy to understand book. Visually is exactly what it means, your able to go step by step, seeing what they are explaining. Great investment."
+3649,2,And Still the Earth,"I read _And Still the Earth_ as a teenager, it was one of those books that opened me to what could be done with language. And it made me believe that art is worth persuing at any price."
+3650,2,great mathematics of mechanics reference,I think this book is a wonderful reference for engineers taking a Lagrangian mechanics/dynamics course. This book dives a little deeper into the mathematics than most engineering oriented texts. It does so in a lucid fashion no less.
+3651,2,Positive Psychology's Got a Winner Here!,"Authentic Happiness is one of the books that I refer most often to my coaching clients and speaking audiences. Grounded in solid Positive Psychology research and packed with practical strategies for enhancing happiness in your life, this is a fitting guidebook for anyone looking to enhance life satisfaction. I have several clients whose lives have been completely changed (for the better, of course!) after reading and applying the principles in this book. Positive Psychology's got a winner in this book!"
+3652,1,Grown in communist China!,"Skip eating questionable food from China and demand USA grown food. You can get garlic grown in the USA at your farmer's market. You can also get it from farmers online and distributors such as: spicesinc.com. Or you can search under ""garlic not grown in China"" like I did. It does exist.Please join me in encouraging Amazon to get an organic source of garlic that is not from China; they currently have none. Let's help our own economy and not buy food from communist China."
+3653,1,DON'T MAKE ME WATCH IT AGIAN!!!,"I'm a big fan of Marlon Wayans. Specially my favorite movies Don't be a Meanace and Senseless but this movie is stupid. Some parts are funny, maybe. The jokes are stupid, you don't even understand them. I know this movie relates to Scream 1, 2, and 3, aslo I know what you did last summer and I still know what you did last summer coz I watch them all. But at the end the movie is really stupid! ..."
+3654,1,"Protection, with drawbacks","Advantages:1) Superior protection: I have dropped my phone twice onto concrete and there has been no damage to phone or case.2) All buttons accessible, though a bit difficult to get to in cases.Disadvantages:1) Signal quality is worse when the phone is in the case!2) Belt clip useless, since the case can easily open, spilling out the phone when on one's belt.3) Side ""ok"" button difficult to press, same with top two front front buttons (above ""start"" and ""ok"" buttons).Summary:Usable only for protection during transportation, and does this well.Phone should be removed from case during usage."
+3655,2,Continual fun for ages 2+,"Of course kids are all different, this toy may not hold the interest of a child with little interest in pretend play cooking. However, I think the vast majority of children will LOVE it. I have a 2 yr old & a 4 yr old & both play with it constantly. Younger ones may not comprehend so much that they are decorating a birthday cake, but the facination of adding and subtracting the decorations (velcro candles, candies, strawberries) is great. I think the construction is good; nothing broken yet. Only down side to it is collecting up all those circles (candies/strawberries) & candles! I'd recommend this gift for boy and girl (I've got both)."
+3656,2,Edward Norton shines again!,"Edward Norton never ceases to amaze me with his acting. In every role of his, I forget that it's Norton, and truly get sucked into his character. All of his roles are incredible, but this one is right up there with his other Oscar-nominated role in American History X. Richard Gere plays a major hot-shot lawyer (as he usually does) who becomes convinced of his client's (Norton) innocence when nobody else does. This film came at the very beginning of Norton's film career and is already a landmark for him. See this movie for his sake. This is not something that most kids would enjoy, nor should they view. Its R rating reflects strong language, some grisly violence, and a scene of sexuality that includes nudity. This is a memorable film with memorable roles."
+3657,1,Enjoy the movie... don't bother with the book.,"Honestly, I'm one of those, ""the book is always better than the movie,"" type of people. This 'book' was so thoroughly disappointing I'm going to the effort of putting my opinion into words here.For the most part this read is nothing more than an incomplete thought. The writing style is simple. I recall an excessive number of typographical errors that simply should have been caught prior to print.If I've missed the mark, then I'm dense, if not then I'm obtuse, but this work could have come from your average, reasonably well educated, fourteen year old. I must give the writer credit for inspiring a similar story, told better, with the same name.Thoughts on keywords: incomplete, juvenile, shallow, angst, directionless, disappointing"
+3658,2,"Not too Big, Not too Small, Just Right","Cuisinart DFP-3 Handy Prep 3-Cup Food ProcessorMy husband is a chef and had this from college (20 years ago) when it finally broke we could not find a replacement. All were 7 or 11 cup or mini's. We tried them and they are fine for large jobs or ""mini"" jobs but this 3 cup is perfect for EVERYTHING dinner for 2 requires. I should know. I've had about 200 dinner's per year for 15 years made for me by a chef and most involved something made with this little guy. From Pesto, to various tapenade's to puree'd spaghetti sauce and so so much more, this little baby is perfect.

+3664,1,"Great idea, bad implementation","This pot is a great idea. Too bad they didn't make it better. Mine stopped working after one month. I'm guessing the heater element burned out, so back to the store with it.Also the on/off switch is confusing and annoying. Press it once, nothing happens. Press it a second time, it turns on. Press it a 3rd time, it goes off. And there is no automatic 2 hour shut off, unlike any self respecting coffee maker, so if you leave it on for a day or two, you have some very strong coffee."
+3665,1,Hasbro made this Edition ... the Origial was made by Milton Bradley,"After reading all the other reviews I noticed at the bottom other products people looked at...I did not realize until then that The Simpsons Edition is made by another company...Hasbro. Maybe that explains the difference in the quality that all reviews seem upset about. I have not check out to see if the current The Game of Life (still manufactured by Milton Bradley) is also as poorly constructed.I would not go out to purchase this game, however, it is a request on a child's Christmas list that we are to purchase a gift for in our family name draw."
+3666,2,Groundbreaking DVD,"If you want to see what DVD can really be all about, buy any DVD in this series. I have all 6 of them and aside from lots of great short films in each issue, the interactivity and look and feel of these discs are just phenomenal. Really high quality and totally different from the DVDs that Hollywood is putting out."
+3667,2,Superior performance,"These table tennis balls are great. As soon as I tried them you could feel the difference with other brands. It has a nice bounce and last long, and I mean long. Butterfly 3-star balls are perfect for reacreational play as well as for competitive play so if you're a beginner this is what you want to use or if you are a higher level player (intermediate to expert) these balls will get the job done. These balls are worth every cent you spend. It will be the official ball for the 2009 World Championships for one reason; they're superb!"
+3668,1,Cheap Material,I didn't really care for it. The material was really cheap and had some frays here and there. But you get what you pay for I guess.
+3669,1,Disappointed,I developed white spots on my legs after using a tanning bed. This product had GREAT reviews eliminating the appearance of these white spots. Unfortunately it did nothing for me.
+3670,1,Awesome when it worked,"I really enjoyed my Zen, when it worked. The first one I ordered I had to return becuase it would only play every other song, and after it started acting up all the lights would start blinking and I would have to take out the battery to make it stop. So, I exchanged it for a new one, and just like the other after only one week the lights started going crazy again, it would freeze up, and would only play 5 seconds of every song. What I liked about it, for the small amount of time I had it was the sound quality, the choice in colors, and the fact that it was so much cheaper than other models with the same amount of storage space. I'm not sure I would recommend it becuase of the fact that they both only worked for a few days. Now I have an Iriver Clix and have had no problems. It has less storage but I don't care, it is easier to control and I haven't had problems with it."
+3671,2,Altan Rocks,Another winner to add to my CD collection. The music is beyond words and I couldn't be happier. Altan has a way of making you a part of each song. Easy to recommend his music.
+3672,1,Waste of money,"Poorly written, and with little if any real value.Does anyone check these articles for grammar or spelling?Does not provide real advice or guidance. Simply a point of view (that I happen to agree with). I feel like a bought the first draft of the first chapter of a book that could be good. So save your money!"
+3673,2,Eureka,"Great show! It's addictive. I haven't finished the series but every show, starting at season 1, has been fantastic. Wish it wasn't ending."
+3674,1,A waste of money,"I am amazed that the other reviewers are so enthusiastic about this book. Its contents are just a rehash of well-known (at least to some of us) principles, and do not provide any useful, real-world guidelines for actually implementing architectures. It's just too superficial, and spends far too much print on generalities.One thing that all the other reviewers also failed to mention is that more than one third of this book is devoted primarily to a ""tutorial"" for the software product marketed by the author's employer, and is, therefore, totally worthless to the general reader. A very disappointing book. Wiley usually does better than this."
+3675,1,An immense disappointment -- who is his audience?,"I ordered this book on the strength of the reviews here -- I guess that's why sometimes it pays to browse in the real bookshop... anyway, as a veteran of Rhodes, Gleick, Hawking etc. I found this to be almost an impossible read. On the one side, he waves his hands around rather pompously, and on the other, he never defines anything clearly except (partially) the Planck scale. The insistence on discrete space is fine, but he repeats himself over and over, as if this will convince us. After struggling here, I went back and read some really clear science prose again: Isaac Asimov (outdated, of course)... too bad he's not around to tell us about quantum gravity."
+3676,1,good in theory but not in practice,"At first, I thought this thing was great. I used it when my daughter was born when we traveled to my mother's house where there was no bassinet and also in her crib for daytime naps. However, when she was three weeks old and beginning to wiggle around I woke up one night because I heard her fussing. When I checked on her she had managed to wiggle her way out of the snuggle nest and in between it and the side of the crib. Needless to say the snuggle nest stayed at my mom's house when we came home that weekend, and we never touched it again. So I thinkit was a waste of money and a danger to my baby."
+3677,2,Great Product,I purchased this device about one month ago to use in a presentation. I've used it 6 or 7 times since then and it operates perfectly. I have used it up to 15' to 20' from my laptop without issue. It is small and fits the palm of the hand nicely. I presented a technical learning course with well over 200 slides (death by Powerpoint) and it is absolutely flawless. A great purchase and a bargain for the money. Order with confidence.

+3679,1,Quality Issues,I received my order promptly. Thanks Amazon! I was really upset to find that many of the silverware pieces were scratched. I called and Amazon shipped out a 2nd set next day to me. Many of the 2nd set were scratched as well. I could not make one complete set out of the two sets so I am returning them both. I was very disappointed. It seems like they are irregulars or seconds and not first quality like I expected.
+3680,1,"Purchased & seller was non responsive*Unfortunately, I made typo & lost my change to neg them","Track 1 sounds like Chipmunks (if you've seen them, you this is bad for the best band ever!). Contacted seller-track 7 sounds like tape recorded with the batteries going dead. Track 8 has definite echo. Seller has not replied since I emailed. Don't bother buying if you are a REAL Queen fan because the quality wil only make you cry. Not sure if I can name the seller...but it starts with 3cool. Don't waste your money and be severely disappointed like I was."
+3681,2,Part of the holy trinity of 70's funk soundtracks,"Car Wash, Shaft and this. That's all you need. There's more great funk out there (James Brown (of course), Funkadelic/Parliament, the Meters, the Temptations, early Kool and the Gang), but as far as soundtracks go these 3 are the bomb. Oh, I suppose I really should add the Saturday Night Fever OST to the list. So, the holy foresome, then."
+3682,2,Toy Bird,I bought this squeeky bird for my dog. He loved it the first week. He likes to play fetch with it. Its a great latex toy that a dog can't eat. My dog loves to eat stuffed toys and socks so I'm in constant search of toys he can't eat. This fit the bill.
+3683,1,moths,Stay away from this product. At first it seemed to be working really great. Then I noticed some movement in the litter bin and I am not refering to BM) and discovered it had a nice colony of mealy worms. Eventually we had a moth problem throughout the house. Swheat scoop folks really didn't have a solution but also did not deny that the litter was the problem.
+3684,2,"Handy, comfortable and durable","I just got one of these, and like it very much.I didn't notice from the pictures that the fold-over outer flap has two snaps that let you secure it to the base of the bag. The inner compartments are plentiful, I was able to stuff it with a raincoat, a couple of hefty books, a phone and a PDA, and assorted little things.I only really see a few bad points with it. The first is that the cell phone pocket on the strap will only really fit the modern small phones (my Nokia fits snugly), and that when you carry the bag without strapping into it, the phone pouch is just dangling on the hanging strap. If the phone isn't well secured, it can plop right out.The other problem is that I think the bag is very right-handed. Not a problem for me, but I think a lefty is going to want the weight of the bag on their right hip, and the phone pouch more available to their left hand."
+3685,1,What was all the fuss about????!!!!,"Halle Berry - I've seen her do better. Billy Bob - hasn't been the same since ""Sling Blade.""

Had high hopes for this movie, but was disappointed."

There is tons of useful information...too much to take in at once. I love having it becasue if I forget something I just re-watch that section. Its helped us become familar with the terms the nurses use and we have great information for question asking when we go to our Dr. Apts.
+3692,1,Don't let a murderer profit from sales of this book!,"Don King takes the most breathtaking pictures! Too bad his murderer of an ex-wife co-wrote this book with him, it just ruins the entire project. I hope everyone sees what insatiable greed does to to already warped minds! I hope nobody ever again falls prey to her manipulative ways, Don is lucky that he escaped with his life intact!"
+3693,2,Camille is the Best,"I love this product. I have problems with my heels cracking. This is the only product that I have found that helps. As long as I apply it daily to my heels, no cracks. Nice smooth and soft. This size for this price is a fantastic bargain"
+3694,2,A good read..,"What can I say, it's a good story.. Especially in the creation of the boundaries of what each god from another sphere may do. As for Lathandar's foolishness.. *smile* Some folks never learn, I'd like to refer to the Avatar series and Crucible as further proof."
+3695,2,Super Comfy and Don't Ride Up,"These boxer briefs are perfect for my four-year-old son. He had issues with his ""whitie tighties"" riding up. These alleviate that problem. They are easy for him to put on himself, too."
+3696,2,Every kind of comedy styling all in one film...,"What makes this film truly great is how many different styles of comedy it has. You see not only slapstick and situation based comedy, but also some fabulous dialog and scare comedy. I didn't want to watch this movie at first, thinking it'd be a run of the mill b/w film, but was amazed, and immediately rewound and watched it a second time."
+3697,1,This D-Bum should kiss his ass goodbye,"This trash is just wack, it's no wonder this album flopped. Not to mention Sheek is a hypocrite. He dissed for 50 for singing(which he doesn't) yet I hear this clown singing the hook on Kiss Your Ass Goodbye. Every song on here sucks from that corny love song he made(One Name) to that stupid and weak G-Unit diss(Maybe If I Sing). I can now see why this crap sold 33,000 in the first week which is half of what his first album sold. Don't buy this or any other D-Bum album. Just wait till G-Unit exposes these idiots for what they are. We all know that 50 waits for low points in his enemies careers. Oh yeah, Jada and Styles are retiring. Next up is the D-Bum disaster Gay-Hood. These guys have always been wack and I never liked them, even before the beef with G-Unit. Go get that Get Rich or Die Tryin soundtrack instead of this watered down crud."
+3698,1,OMFGZ,seriously man I didn't really dig this EP.translating the name was a masterpiece but this...well lets just say bury your head acoustic is the only reason it's good.The truth is the same songs on this album are on the LP. It has a different vocalist but in my opinion anthony green doesn't shine as well as he did in the first ep or circa survive.sleepers > I wanna hear another Fast song. Enough said.
+3699,1,HOW COME IT AIN'T MADE IN AMERICA ???????,"I have learned one thing about Amazon you don't buy AMERICAN made products. Before I bought this from you I asked 3 different people if the toaster was made in AMERICA and they all said yes. So I bought it an when I received it had a seal on the bottom that said made in china was I upset....So now I put you in the same class as walmart that is selling JUNK..I would think we the AMERICAN people would be sick of supporting these people that would love to take over the great land of ours,and the companys in the U.S.A. DON'T seem to get it,WAKE UP PLEASE WAKE UP...Ron a very unhappy camper................"
+3700,1,Too hot to handle!!,"The blades are nice and sharp, but this knife weighs a ton - not good, since you have to hold down the ""on"" switch the whole time. But worse than that was the overheating. The unit got HOT after slicing up only half a loaf of biscotti. If it can't take that, how on earth would it make it through a whole turkey?!Next time I'll lay out more cash for a knife that can actually handle a little work."
+3701,2,Another great love story of transformation and triumph,"Just finished this book this morning and it only took me one day to read it. Lindsey never disappoints and usually a rape makes the happily ever after rather idiotic and unnatural, but since he is the one who is raped and can't help but enjoy himself, it made for a very interesting story. Revenge is sweet and the ending is even sweeter. Try this new twist on the historical romance."
+3702,1,Not what I expected,"Very flimsy sheets - I have ordered Pike Street before, and was very pleased, but these are thin, uncomfortable. Even after washing, did not soften up. I would not recommend these at all. Two stars because of the price I paid, but you do get what you pay for!"
+3703,1,the only good thing about it was its simplicity,"Even though I only had to read this for school, I can tell you one thing through my forced reading: the only good thing about this book was that I could read it fast. Fitzgerald puts across some good points, but the book left me without the feeling of having been there and only with images of what happened. He did not do a very good job of emphasizing the important points, and I'm afraid I missed some of them. I would only recommend this book if your intent is a long-term study of writers of the 20th century."
+3704,2,Great movie,The DVD came quickly and in good shape. This movie is a classic sci-fi and highly recommended to anyone that hasn't seen it! Great adaptation of the Crichton novel.
+3705,1,Are We Not Ticked? This is Sucko.,"In the DVD commentary for The Truth About Devolution and the Giffels/Dellinger book, Jerry mentioned wanting to do a new version of Devo similar to the current pop tarts out there. Rather than run the idea through with a coat hanger before it had a chance to come to fruition, take the subversive/sexual content of Devo's canon, dilute with the Mickey Mouse Club and you get this piece of steaming, putrid you know what.Considering the band did back-up on these songs, would it really have been that hard simply to update their own songs for the 21st century without bringing in a bunch of kids who weren't even born when the last proper Devo CD came out? Of course not. Instead, they hop in bed with the huboons and blockheads at Disney. This should have had its head crushed a la Booji Boy.I think I'm handing in my spudboy resignation and using my energy dome for what most people think it is . . . a flowerpot.Signed,epsteinsmutha"
+3706,2,Sultry...Sexy...Sweet,"I bought this album on a whim after hearing ""Raincoat"" on the radio and falling in love with it. Sometimes it is worth buying a CD even when you do not know what the songs are going to be like just because the voice makes it worth it. With this album, however, I was NOT disappointed. Every song is fantastic and I absolutely LOVE Sweet's voice. Her songs range from classical to a sexy pop sound. The only thing that does not change is the beauty in her voice. Few people could pull such an album off- but she certainly does. ""We Are One"" is my current favorite, but I love her version of Aerosmith's ""Dream On"" also as well as ""Crush"". Buy it and enjoy it over and over and over again- I am."
+3707,2,Love all his works and expecially this one,"I watched it at theater and on screen and enjoyed the e-book a lot. Funny, and great atmosphere in it. Recommended if you like Shakespeare or you want to get to know him"
+3708,2,Amazingly simple and powerful!,"I've owned lots of audio, video, and computer equipment over the years. I've never encountered a product that is so simple to install and intuitive to use and provides so much flexibility. I was thrilled to yank my 400 disc jukebox out of my audio cabinet and replace it with the little Sonos box! This seems a bit pricey, but it is worth every penny! Buy it now!"
+3709,1,Not worth it,I bought this book thinking I'd learn some stuff about knife throwing but I had already learned a lot of the things mentioned online or through experience. I'm not saying the book is 100% useless but it definitely wasn't worth it.
+3710,1,Loss Distributions,"This book, part of the Wiley Series in Probability and Mathematical Statistics is writen for the fitting of probability distribution models to data relating to losses in the insurance industry. A necessary prerequisite for the understanding of this book is a university course in mathematical statistics. This is an advanced book utilizing higher mathematical formulas and functions. It covers models for random variables, statistical inference, loss distributions, and applications. It is a very useful book for those interested in theory and who are competent in advanced functions."
+3711,2,Never leave home without it!,"When ever I leave home(for any reason whatsoever), I grab my keys, my wallet, and my NIV Life Application Study Bible. Period, end of story!"
+3712,2,great buy!,"Great buy, looks exactly as in the picture. Be aware that it is VERY short. I'm only 5 feet tall and the small barely covers my rear. Other than that it is very cute, affordable and the shipping was very prompt."
+3713,1,0 stars if possible,"This book is completely ludicrous. My husband purchased it from a co -worker thinking it was about the extinction of the dinosaurs and the scientific evidence for the extinction of dinosaurs. Instead it is a fundamental creationist view of what happened to dinosaurs based on biblical ""evidence"". It completely discounts carbon -14 dating and the fossil record based upon the strata of the Earths crust. The woman who sold this to us home schools her children and actually teaches this as fact. I am a Christian myself and have never had an issue with evolution as the means by which God could have created all life. The bible is a metaphor! These people are nuts.Jenny"
+3714,1,"BUY THIS MACHINE,MAYBE","Read the ( mostly) glowing reviews, so went to Target and bought one<br /><br />
Works like they say, and is a great mop! My problem is that I have pets and the machine clogged immediately with dog hair (and small pieces of leaf...it seems it can't handle anything larger than just general dirt or anything larger than dust.) .Either I would have to clean out the filter multiple times to have any suction ( a time-consumng pain) , or, vacuum or sweep the floor first before I used it. That defeats the purpose of an all-in-one machine, so I'm going back to my regular vacuum and a mop.&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;<br /><br />
IF YOU DON'T HAVE CATS, DOGS , it's a good pr"
+3715,1,They were good for 3 months...,"I really liked these shoes. They had good reviews which prompted me to buy them. Within the last week, the left shoe has developed a squeak. VERY irritating for $100+ shoes. Since they are past the 30 days return policy, I guess they will go to Goodwill. Maybe someone else won't mind the loud squeak as they walk. If I can warn anyone that this might happen to them, this review will be worth it."
+3716,1,What happened to DJ Kicks?,"Hard to believe this is in the same series as Rockers, K&D, Kid Loco, Cam...maybe all these DJ's (Playgroup, Chicken Lips etc.) peddling this 80's crap think this is cool but for those of us old enough to remember, the music from that decade was mostly horrifying. All you people with your new wave hairdos go get a haircut."
+3717,1,Don't buy this DeLonghi oven,"This oven is terrible. Mine lasted less than 4 months before the heating element on the top in the front melted, bowing down, so that you could easily burn your hand when taking something out of the oven. A terrible fire hazard, it finally stopped working before burning up, thankfully. DeLonghi customer service is incredibly unhelpful. Since this has happened to me, I've heard nothing but horrible things about other DeLonghi products. Heed my advice: stay away from DeLonghi, spend less money, and be safe!"
+3718,2,it works,"my doctor put me on Actose in January of 2006 and by June, my blood sugar was still out of control and my weight was 306 lbs. I read about this while researching on the web and thought i would give it a try. From July 18 to Sept 15 I have lost 34 lbs. My blood sugar stays below 100 even after meals, and I have more energy than i have had in 20 years. Read this book and stick to it like your life depends on it, and it WILL work."
+3719,1,Classic Junk,Shown with a list price of over 25 dollars and on sale for 2 dollars was too good to be true and like anything that is too good to be true it was not. This item is classic dollar store quality and perhaps worth the 2 dollars and not a penny more. I don't know why I cheeeped out to save a few dollars to plug my 300 dollar ipod into a 50 cent power socket but I did and I will chalk that one up to experience. I had this silly notion that if it was listed on Amazon there was some sort of quality/control/assurance. Oh well - live and learn. :-(
+3720,2,A wonderfully skilled summing up,"This is a marvelous book. I don't believe it's a total exaggeration to say that Thomas Frank shares the incisive social perception - and the ability to express it succinctly - of two great writers, George Orwell and Kurt Vonnegut. Frank's analysis of American folly and manipulation is a joy to read; although it might not have been so much fun if I'd picked it up when the present administration was still in full swing. One question for the dittoheads; has it occurred to you that the three trillion dollars being spent to pursue an old man in a cave might just possibly, some sunny day, need to be repaid? Duh!"
+3721,2,real disco for real,"Well, it's what it is: compilation of old school and mostly unknown disco anthems, picking up from some hard-to-find 12', etc. Can't say, it blew me out, but, well, if you love disco it's your choice -- at least, this very compilation isn't so straightforward like previous effort: here you can find some real diamonds, let me say, disco epics."
+3722,1,Use at your own risk,"I got my T40 (512mb ram) last summer. After working well for a few months, the hard drive and motherboard went bad and I had to send it back for repairs. After getting it back, it worked well once more, but now I am having frequent problems with overheating when running intensive applications. I would recommend buying another brand with similar specs - thinkpads are overpriced anyway."
+3723,1,Not very good at all,This movie sounded better than it was. The acting was really terrible and the whole thing would have been much better if they had used the rated R rating and shown something. Nothing really happened. It was a waste of money.
+3724,2,West Coast Gangsta Rap,"This is an underground track that gets overlooked. The beats are hittin, the lyrics are on point. Feat. Yuk Mouth, Killa Tay,& Marvaless. I recommend this album to any one who loves C-bo---Killa Tay ect, or just rap period..."
+3725,1,Poor quality,The basic design is good but the quality is very poor. The straps came loose from the right bag during the first use.
+3726,2,Healthy Body Cookbook,"This book contains great ideas that are also tasty. My picky eaters enjoyed the Breakfast No-Bake granola bars, the Awesome Banana Berry Pancakes and the Creamy, Dreamy Yogurt Orange-Banana Frozen pops. We are excited to try many of the other great recipe ideas. The recipes in here are easy to follow, and taste great!"
+3727,1,Dissapointed,I thought this film was dull. Nice to see R-Pattz but the film itself was boring! I cant wait to see the documentary ROBsessed about Robert Pattinson i heard from my friend who went to a special screening that it is just amazing. It apparently has interviews with some of his ex girlfriends!
+3728,1,False Adverisement,"This product used to be advertised as a spare UV bulb for pond clarifier, but it is really NOT an UV bulb. It costed me money and time. It is not economical for me to ship it back, and wish the supplier simply refund me the money without the product being returned but I doubt it since the supplier wants to make more money by false adverting the function of the product."
+3729,2,Shaver,Love this product but I still miss the hair on the knees. Have to take time to get every little hair.
+3730,1,I Wouldn't Buy this Book,"I just passed my ANCC ANP boards this morning. One of the NPs in my department gave me this book to use as a study guide. I took it home, looked through it and gave it right back to her. There were too many errors. Some of the answers and rationales were just flat out wrong. Also, oddly enough, some of the information in this study guide contradicted the information Dunphy provided in her Primary Care textbook which I purchased as an adjunct to my studies and found to be extremely good. I am glad I did not purchase this study guide. For everyone studying I recommend Fitzgerald's study guide and review CDs and Zerwekh's and Claborn's study guide and CDs. Good Luck."
+3731,2,Swaraj-Indo-Acid Jazz Blast,"This collection of outstanding, though diverse, tracks in the India-meets-Acid Jazz genre is a joy from beginning to end. Perhaps the strongest selection is Shade's Maye ni Maye based on a lovely melody and infectious groove. Other tracks of note are Kaise Guszar Rahi Hai by Dub Factory, Losing it by Earth Tribe, and Apache Indian's Respect. Although most of the groups are based in London this is world music with heart and soul for everyone."
+3732,1,dont buy this CD!,"this CD couldn't be further from what i wanted. i felt the reviews were very misleading and in my oppinion, completely unjustified.if you want sloppy love ballads that will make you cry with sadness rather than happiness. if you want boring and uninspiring songs for your wedding, then buy this CD, from me. it's for sale"
+3733,2,Danforth legacy lives on,"Danforth's story shows that meager monetary or intellectual beginnings don't necessarily dictate future achievements. You'll find lessons substantial enough to change your thinking and, therefore, your course in life. Section on physical exercise, while totally on target in concept, is outdated given how much more we know today."
+3734,2,A beautiful romantic movie!,"I was very happy to finally get this DVD, have been trying for so long. It's such a beautiful love story, with a great cast (just love Adam Beach and the late Gordon Tootoosis). The ending was expected, but knowing so did not spoil the overall experience watching it. Really, it's truly treasured!"
+3735,1,Almost Useless,The hearing aids I currently use are heavy on batteries. The ICell Tech batteries last from 15 minuets to a day and a half. Most of them have lasted about 10 hours. Will never buy these batteries again. Costco batteries last me about 2 days. I sent my aids in for recalibration and was informed this is the nature of my current aids.The company I bought the batteries from were OK . Prompt with the shipping and well packed
+3736,2,delicious,"I initially heard these organ concertos on YouTube a mere two weeks ago and they were a revelation: virtuoso organ without liturgical associations and Handel at his most playful, occasionally even frolicsome. Ton Koopman and the ensemble understand the scale and decorousness of the baroque at the same time as the uses to which these compositions were put, i.e. interludes for the more portentous oratorios. Accordingly Koopman's formidable skill allows the sometimes demanding passages to sound light and joyous. The audio engineeering is crisp and brings out the lush mix of timbres, of brass and strings with the organ, in all its variety of stops. I can no longer say that Bach is unequalled where organ is concerned; I doubt that I'll ever tire of these Handel gems."
+3737,2,In the back of the Cars,"While this CD will never be classified as one of The Cars best, it has enough to make it a disc that I reach for when driving with the top down. The music brings back memories of a simpler time and after a couple of tracks I find my stress level subsiding. Maybe I am just getting older but I thought when it first came out Shake It Up had a brighter sound. This version the music seemed a little more muted. Overall though it has found a place in my CD rotation."
+3738,1,It's true wig is cheap,"I've ordered many wigs on amazon and this by far has been the worst one.It serves its purpose if you are just looking for cheap halloween type wig, but if you are looking for a sexy classy wig this is not it. I tried to brush mine and fix it since its shipped folded and all messed up and chunks of hair fell out of it."
+3739,2,Great book for dragon lovers.,"For the aspiring dragon artist or the experienced, this book is great. It may be leaning more towards the beginning artist as it covers color theory, lighting, and your basic drawing complex objects with shapes. It has step by step instructions that will let you make one of the dragons in the book or make one from your own imagination. It gives you a good grip on dragon anatomy, and the different ways to draw them. It's colorful, well-organized, and just overall a great book. All this artist's books are very well done."
+3740,2,Great item,"Sent as a gift to my son, he loved it and shared with others. Size of the item is convenient."
+3741,1,What a mistake!,I bought my Titanium to store digital photos while on a long term journey in China. Two months into the trip the Titanium became completely unusable. I contacted Sandisk to request help in retrieving my data and they simply refered me to a data recovery agency. I still do not know if the data is recoverable and Sandisk will not pay for the recovery fees ($125.00 + shipping from China to US). And I have not been refunded. I'm writing this as a warning to anyone considering purchasing this storage device. Take my advice for what its worth. Keep shopping.
+3742,2,Austin Camacho does it again!,"Austin Camacho has given his readers yet another exciting book. The Troubleshooter is fast paced, action packed and exciting while providing wonderful lessons on treating people with respect."
+3743,1,Buyer beware,"Oops! My book group wanted to do a ""short"" book with ""meat"" and we thought Hadji Murad by Tolstoy would be perfect. Without thinking I purchased the cheapest new Hadji Murad I saw.It's the Filiquarian Pulishing,LLC book I'm talking about. It turned out I'd purchased a book that reads like it was translated from the Russian by computer. It certainly never had a human editor. The spelling was bad but the grammar was worse. What I could tell was a wonderful, exciting and relevant story had no charm. Shame on Amazon for selling this. Shame on me for not sending this copy back and reading Hadji Murad as Tolstoy intended."
+3744,2,Have a blindfold and earmuffs handy . . .,This movie is really good as far as plot and acting goes but it's not for the see-no-evil types. My semi-conservative parents were horrified at the nudity and vulgar language-Even my 16 year old brother was embarrassed! Leave this movie for the high-schoolers and college students who are targeted in this film. It's enjoyable but not brain food. It could also promote irresponsible behavior in drug and alcohol use and sexual issues.
+3745,2,Very Happy With This Cable,"This is a great cable and is exactly what I was hoping for to connect my laptop to my tv so now everything I see on my laptop I can display on the tv. I got it for videos and movies and it works great for those. The 12ft of cable is just enough to reach from behind the tv, down the wall, across a few feet of floor and up to my laptop resting on the coffee table."
+3746,2,"Exactly As Ordered, Quick Shipping","Exactly what I ordered (and what I needed to help alert clueless family members), and it came very quickly which is always a plus. Thank you!"
+3747,2,"As a teacher of boys, I found it thought-provoking.","I teach in a boys' school, and was delighted to find something relatively sound on the subject of boys and their psychology. This book is thoughtful and interesting, with many readable examples from the author's experience and research. I do think he overstates the hardships on boys in school, which I assume is for emphasis, but I can confirm many of his observations about boys from my own experience."
+3748,2,Not too bad.,"Having watched the TV series, I was expecting an even greater read. I should have read the books first in order to appreciate them and then to admire how the movies Director brought the story to life on the screen. Fantastic story that should be read before watching the screen interpretation."
+3749,1,of no help,"This is the author's first book and it shows. I do not recommend the book if you want any help in choosing and finding the location of a hike in RMNP. The best hiking guides always clearly state the location, GPS points, and miles of each hike. In this book, the location, GPS points, and miles of each hike are either completely missing or are buried in unorganized descriptions."
+3750,1,Boring,"Overall the book was boring. Once again, as is becoming the case with many Kennedy inspired books, the information contained is not shocking or even new to reader, despite what the author promises. This "" missing history"" can be found in many other books written about this self-destructive family. Indeed I read not one thing that captured my attention as having never been mentioned before. Not only that, but the book seemed to contain more information about Jack than about Jackie. Perhaps the title should have been Jack Kennedy: The Missing History of the Kennedy Years."
+3751,1,North to the Orient (Harbrace Paperbacks Library),This particular printing may be authentic to the period but the print is very difficult to read. It is dizzying.
+3752,2,Great songwriting and playing,"Huge Trower fan and I was really disappointed when he put this all-blues album. I recently decided to give it another listen and it is really enjoyable. These aren't all blues ""standard"" type songs like ""Crossroads"". There are some songwriting twists which are unmistakenly genuine Robin Trower. The guitar volume is turned down a bit but he still uses some effects and the songwriting is great. His playing rocks on this CD which surprised me. Davey Pattison is also much better when he sings the blues I found. This exact CD was also put out on ""Someday Blues"" with only Robin singing which is a really strange move."
+3753,1,Im not happy about it. But I like the model but its all plastic,"Its all plastic , plastic never lasts!!!! Probly one or two months it will last then break .I may have to buy 5 like each year!"
+3754,1,Easily the worst metal album ever released.,"I will invite you to watch some of the song videos of this album, search up for Frantic, St.Anger and Some Kind of Monster. If you know how to appreciate real, good, classic metal, your ears will bleed.Whoever thought this album was in need of a special edition certainly did not listen the album itself. It sucks, it's terrible; Loud as hell, there's no musical patterns, the instruments sound awful, specially the drums. And the compositions are those of a 10 year old that thinks he can do music. Easily the worst metal album ever released. EVER."
+3755,1,difficult to follow this book,"This book and two cassettes contain a lot of useful information, however it is paced EXTREMELY fast and contains little translation of the Dutch conversations it presents. It is impossible to listen to the tapes while driving and make any sense of it. You must read the book carefully and listen to the tapes a bit at a time...AT HOME!"
+3756,1,QUE PASA CON LA GENTE LATINA????,"ESTE DVD CONTIENE TODO EL MATERIAL ADICIONAL QUE UNO DESEA PERO LAMENTABLEMENTE LAS PRODUCTORAS SE OLVIDAN O A MI PARECER SIMPLEMENTE NO LES INTERESA EL PUBLICO LATINO Y POR LO TANTO NO HAY SUBTITULOS EN CASTELLANO MAS QUE SIMPLEMENTE EN LAS PELICULAS Y ASI NO ES, NO ME PARECE JUSTO YA QUE NOSOTROS TAMBIEN SOMOS UN GRAN PUBLICO QUE CONSUME ESTOS PRODUCTOS Y POR CONSIGUIENTE NO APOYAMOS A LA PIRATERIA."
+3757,1,Is ZERO stars a possibilty?,After being forced to read it for summer reading i have wondered why anyone would CHOOSE to read this book. What is it with making high school students read books such as this one or THe Woman Warrior with a Chinese American background. DO NOT BUY THIS BOOK!
+3758,1,Send it Back...,"This was a really bad book by an incredible writer who was trying to do too much with too little. Some have argued that the story, told almost completely in dialogue form is a wonderful demonstration of stretching and using language to its fullest; all I came away with was a jumbled up mess and a feeling that much of my time was wasted. Since this is Philip Roth, one of the 4 or 5 best living writers on the planet, it's easy to be caught up in what he intends to accomplish and the way the title works on multiple levels all the way through the text. Unfortunately, this book is one of those duds that you hope you never have to see a gifted writer produce (Brazil by John Updike is another I can think of).I really have no idea how people enjoyed this one. You're much better off reading anything, and I mean anything by Roth."
+3759,1,A forgetteable book,"It is hard to understand the hype. A weak book, it depends too much on cliches and stereotypes. The story is weak and it has very uneven writing. Nothing of universal sentiment that could salvage the material. You won't miss anything if you never read the book!"
+3760,2,an attention grabber,"I like true crime and historical novels and this one has it all. It is a terrible story, makes your stomach turn over in places but it is because it is true. Texas is my home state and I have read a lot about it but this novel brings things in that I knew nothing about. The 1920s is also interesting to me and this happened in an area and among people whose lives I knew nothing about. I really, really liked it."
+3761,1,what is wrong with you people?!?!?!,"I mean come on. these sellouts are crap. they sing or rap about how much their life sux and people like it. It is not metal, and it is not rap. it is some sick combination of the two that is more horrible than emo and not nearly as good as metal, not by a long shot. dont waste your time on this album"
+3762,1,"Very ""new agey""","This guide to personal freedom achieves the ""freedom"" through what I call situational ethics. That may be unfair in that I couldn't bring myself to listen to the second disc because it ran so counter to my beliefs"
+3763,1,not worth the money,"Thank goodness we received this as a gift. My daughter is super un-impressed and never plays with this ball. Mommy hates it too -it makes this obnoxious giggle sound that makes me want to crawl out of my skin. And it plays forever after baby stops touching it - I don't like that it's not a good feedback toy. Its really awful if you forget to turn it off before baby goes to sleep. Next thing you know, you walk by it, the flor squeaks or shakes a second and this toy starts shrieking. I will never buy this for anyone else nor recommend it"
+3764,2,Good quality and affordable,"I bought 3 of these stands for 2 mountain bikes and 1 dirt jumper. I could not be happier. The items are well built and designed to last. These were to replace a cheap product(1 broke just after first use) that I had just bought from Target. The only draw back is that you may have to cut it witha hacksaw to fit your bike but to do this just follow the included instructions, the stand works great! For those concerned with damaging the frame, I would suggest to use thread lock to not having to clamp on the item too hard while preventing it from coming off and perhaps use a grippy surface protector like neoprene.The rubber booth came with the unit so no need to buy it separately."
+3765,1,Missing pieces,"This was my second time buying this police costume for my son. The first time I returned it because it didn't include everything it says it's suppose to; it was missing the cap, plastic baton, handcuffs, radio, badge, and get real gear. Basically all it included was the police jumpsuit and belt. I had hoped it was a mistake and purchased it a second time but I received the same thing. my son was extremely disappointed, I would not recommend buying this product.Jr. Police Officer Kids Costume"
+3766,1,I won't buy another Trager product,"I loved my first trager backpack. After many years of use it eventually came apart at the seams. I liked it so much, that I bought another. The same thing happened, the seams came apart, but this time it happened almost immediately. I contacted Trager and they asked me to send it in for repair or replacement. I did this. Then I NEVER heard back from them again. I have emailed, called and left VMs and tried everything. They have never responded to me. I now have to buy something else as I have been without the bag I was using every day. I will not buy another Trager product."
+3767,1,get tupac instead,"yo on the real, x's new album is beter than the one before, but both were wack. the first one was tight, but then he fell off. i would recommend all of u to get the new 2pac cd. its one of the best to drop in 99....peace out."
+3768,2,Nice set of features with only one small wish and a small annoyance.,"Uniden has done a good job with this phone. I like it very much with only one small wish: I wish it had a headset port and the ability to take it ""off-the-hook"" without actually lifting the handset.I had been looking for a decent analog phone to replace my broken Contel that I wasn't happy with before it broke. After researching the available phones and based upon past experience with Uniden products (we own a couple of their 900MHz DSS phones for the house) I decided to go with this model. I have not been disappointed.Now, to the annoyance: The ringer on both the included cordless and the base unit is not loud enough. Some nice tunes, but none of them really loud enough to be heard when asleep. As I used to be on-call quite a bit, this was an important feature. Now, I need it louder so calls from friends and family when I'm sleeping in on Sunday morning wake me up so I can answer."
+3769,1,Lacking credibility,"I was required to read this for a philosophy of music class and found myself shaking my head in disbelief many times along the way. The only positive point I can offer is the observation made in the book that we (much of the modern world) are dominated by visual experience and lack an appreciation for the abilities of our auditory processes.Aside from that, his explanations are not supported with valid data either through rational argument or empirical evidence and tend to jump around in some weird state of confusion. If you are already predisposed to pseudo claims about consciousness, the mind, and reality, then you may enjoy this book. On the other hand, it will not serve you well to approach this book with a critical disposition hoping to learn anything new. His misuse of quotes and lack of appropriate citiations giving credit to the ideas of others is difficult to deal with and produces a lack of credibility that devalues the few valid points that are suggested."
+3770,2,dvd,I havent see this movie in years. it was great to find and was sent promptly. it was great family time to watch this movie and eat popcorn
+3771,1,"1 star, and I'm an ID proponent","Well, I've read many ID titles including Behe, Denton and Johnson (I even got to hear Philip speak once) and I'd say there are better presentations than this one. I've wanted to read it for awhile since it was considered once for inclusion in some science curricula (I believe). If you choose to read it, read the chapters first and then go back and read the Intro. (or better yet, read the intro only and then pitch the book into the donation box as you'll have the gist)"
+3772,2,Who say this was the worst Hammill record,"This is an excelent cd, have all you can expete from Hammill.Have some punk (Stranglers funs check this one)Have a lot of good lirics and so much Changes.For all of you that say this cd is the worst one give it one more chance and play it all the way don't stop at the first song don't put the first seconds of esch song Just put it all the way to the last song. Take the time to here it."
+3773,2,Worth every minute,"Such a powerful story. It's about the power of love, determination, family, and what kids (and adults) are looking for from others. It moved me to happy, inspired tears. A story worth watching."
+3774,2,Spans the Generations of Marvel Characters,"A great gift for Marvel readers and a coffee table book for Marvel Families. This book brings back memories and provides helpful chronology. In the sixties, Iron Man was yellow, the X-Men were blue and yellow, and Daredevil was black and yellow. Marvel sure liked yellow."
+3775,2,This is the book for a child at the age of non belief,I have read this book as a child and as an adult read it to my children. This is truly a piece to read at Christmas time every year.
+3776,1,Cheap and useless,"I had this vacume for less then a year. in that time I found that it clogged easily, and on bare floors it really could not handle anything larger then sand.There was smell of burning rubber, and then the spinning brush no longer worked.As for the design, the power button is in a inconvenient place. i should have retuned this immediately. Oh well, never another Bissell."
+3777,1,Homicide,Homicide is wat this cd isanyone who makes a CD like this should kill themselfHomicide ironacly would be the only good track if i could understand his yellingHERE WE GO NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Yeah down the trash is where you go now
+3778,2,Couldn't be better!,The book is just what it says it is. It is a self explain book and it couldn't be any better than this.
+3779,1,Disappointed!,This product came in damaged it even looked like it had been used and reboxed. The handle was all torn up and it was low on hydraulic fluid. I will not ever buy from this company again.
+3780,2,Excellent Analysis,"This book is not your typical account of the D-Day invasion and battles. Keegan initially examines the strategic thinking that led to the need for and selection of an amphibious invasion of Europe. The account then examines different battles of different formations from different nations involved in the campaign. The approach Keegan takes allows examination of each nation's concerns and approach to the problems presented. Finally, Keegan examines the long term effect the Normandy campaign had on the war and beyond.This book is not a blow by blow description of the landings such as 'The Longest Day' or Ambrose's 'D-Day'. Indeed,without knowing the campaign in general terms it would be difficult to make sense of much of this book. However, as a further examination and deeper reading of the campaign it is an excellent follow up to either of the above mentioned books."
+3781,1,Don't buy it....,unless you enjoy reading lots of cussing and want to become a vegan. I cuss and this book offended me. I also do not plan on becoming vegan.
+3782,2,SPECTACULAR!,"I already owned a wonderful version of Bach's sublime ""Passion,"" but I purchased this one simply because I am a huge fan of the tenor, Ian Bostridge. It was worth every penny. This is, simply, the most beautiful version of this magnificent music that I have ever heard. And Bostridge is absolutely first rate as the ""Evangelist."" But then every soloist, the orchestra and the chorus are everything one could hope for. The sound is, as I have come to expect from the Harmonia Mundi label, absolutely full and rich and crisp. I have only looked briefly at the extra cd-rom, but it looks interesting and worthwhile. This is a dream recording that I shall own and play with great happiness."
+3783,2,Great Value,"My 7 year old daughter recently discovered the Harry Potter movies while they were on TV one weekend. I wanted to get her all the movies that were out this far (1-7) but did not want to pay individual DVD prices for each one. Then I found this set on Amazon for this great price. This set does only have the 7 movies on DVD (7 individual DVDs) no extra DVDs come with it. Some of the DVDs do have a few ""extras"" but not all. This is a great set if you are looking just to get the movies. My daughter loves them and even my husband and I have grown a liking to Harry Potter."
+3784,2,Absolutely The Best!!!,This is absolutely the best message ever. I have this book and reread it often. I also give it out as a gift all the time. A must have!
+3785,1,DO NOT BUY FROM THIS VENDOR,This is no a review of the Timer/Printer but the deceptive practices of the vendor. The item was not properly identified by serial number as it prevented me from doing direct comparisans with other vendors. with such knowledge I would not have bought from Online Sports and would have dealt with a more reputable vendor. Who in their right mind charges $41.00 for shipping and handling for something that otherwise would cost $10-$15 to ship if they kney that once the customer was reeled in and would have second thoughts about returning it for a less expensive one. This stopwatch/printer was purchase to help kids with their splits and races. DO NOT BUY FROM THIS VENDOR!!!
+3786,2,Serviceable,Poster is a decent scan of the original poster (I could still see the pixels from the digital scan). But it generally delivers what is advertised and I don't have a major problem with it. Recommend for future mini posters!
+3787,1,Horrible-my baby choked during her feeding,"These are a complete waste of money. The nipples flow too fast for a newborn. I tried using them many times during my return to work transition and my daughter choked and cried during each feeding. She also swallowed so much air-I was burping her for what seemed hours. The bottles are too expensive for just storage-you can purchase generic breastmilk storage bottles made by evenflow for $3.99...personally I like to use the storage bags laid flat in my freezer, they take up less space."
+3788,2,"lyrical, beautifully written and gorgeous illustrations",This book is much like Celia herself. I think especially for those of us trying to raise bilingual bi-cultural children this book is very important. I highly recommend it as a great book and introduction to la musica salsa. you can follow up wih that intro beautifully.
+3789,2,Really Enjoyed It !!,"I enjoyed Timothy Spall's character,(Oswald Bates). The chemistry between Christopher Anderson and Marilyn Truman was tastefully done. I loved the stories Marilyn would tell with those extraordinary pictures. It's a keeper."
+3790,1,Not enough,This unit was not enough amperage for what i was needing. Was not the units fault though. So i can't really tell you much about it
+3791,2,Best All-Around Pug book available,"Really fun book with lots of touching and informative sidebars on every aspect of owning a Pug including agility, therapy dog, rescue etc. Highly reccomend it. A Fun and interesting read. If you love Pugs then you'll love this book."
+3792,1,broke already,"The suction was okay, but the paw arrived broke, and the unit makes a terrible noise on hard floors."
+3793,1,Boring details and not much help,"This is isn't a ""how to"" book so don't expect any great hints on finding your own twin soul. Lots and lots of agonizing details in telling their story how they met, but little else..."
+3794,2,"A compelling, thorough read on a legend and modern day sport","I had read many of the current books having to do with basketball and Michael Jordan in particular and find that once again Mr. Halberstam has done not only a magnificent job at researching Mr. Jordan and the sports business in general, but also has actually presented something new to us. With more than a fair hand he fleshes out the major and minor players in the sports media, on the basketball courts and locker rooms. Intriguing, entertaining, colorful, fascinating, I could not put it down. David Halberstam seldom disappoints, this book is evidence of that."
+3795,1,"Well, just do what the author did.","Want to develop ""chi power""?Here's how the author, William Cheung did it, and you can do it to.1. Take a Wing Chun class from a credible instructor for about 3 years.2. Don't show up to class all that often.3. Learn about 1/3 of the system4. Move thousands of miles away from your instructors to a place where Wing Chun isn't taught.5. Since you only learned 1/3 of the system, just make up a bunch of stuff yourself.6. Tell people that your mostly-made-up ""art"" is different than actual Wing Chun not because you made it up, but because it's a SECRET system that a great master only taught to you...in SECRET.7. Now start selling lessons, books, and videos.Congratulations, you've just mastered ""Chi Power""!"
+3796,2,"A brave, gut wrenching confessional","I first saw Martin Moran perform a version of his story as a one man play in Manhattan. When his off hand geniality, warmth and humor suddenly segued into the story of a young gay boys sexual abuse by a Catholic Brother, it hit the audience like a bolt out of the blue. The book goes into even greater depth. If you can't see this incredibly talented theater guy tell his story, this book is the next best thing."
+3797,1,Pretty voice,"I love Clay's voice, and he sounds great on some of these cover songs. Some of them he sounds hmmmm... I think he would have done better to have his second easy listening cd or pop to be originals. As a new artist he needed to define himself as a force to be reckoned with, not someone who has been out for say, 20 years and could pull off a cover cd. I give it a 2."
+3798,1,The loudest stealth ever,"Sadly this product performs admirably with supplying power but where it fails is its stealth. Check out OCZs forums for many complaints about it being quite loud. Apparently they've kind of messed with all their customers and created an extremely loud product that is difficult to return to most e-tailers.FYI some retailers have newer revisions of these units that are much quieter but the UPCs are exactly the same so good luck finding one. Buy it amazon or B&M; or better yet, just stay away."
+3799,2,Truly a romance,"If you like Brokeback Mountain, this is much better; if you don't like Brokeback Mountain, still, you'd love this one! The attraction, the intensity of the love, the struggle, the denial - the feelings resonate with me so deeply that I almost seem to have seen myself in it. Finally I don't feel that alone. You know, you seldom chat with people about your relationship when it's a forbidden one, and you never really know how others feel. Reading this book is a sweet comfort. Putting aside the gay element, as a romance fiction, it's still pretty profound, touching and sweet."
+3800,1,Edited dvds=no sale,I was really happy to hear Roseanne's first season was being released on DVD until I read all of these reviews. I think it is BS that Carsey/Warner is releasing this DVD. I'm going to start taping all the shows off of Nick or Oxygen until the full/unedited version is released.

+3802,2,"amazing (""dément "" in french) rocket plane story","I read this book in german because I find it at Münich (Deutsch Museum). It exists in French but I miss it years ago (France Empire edition). Mano Ziegler is one of the test pilot of this crazy plane. The book is full of little stories, accidents, missions and illustrated ( sorry for my english) of Ziegler drawings. Hard to read in german, that's why I wwould like to read it in english. It's a good book for people interested in this aircraft, the Me163 Komet."
+3803,1,The Girl with the Dragon Tatoo trilogy,"The trilogy that I purchased stated that it was ""Dubbed"" in english, in fact it is sub titled. The story is great though."
+3804,2,A Wonderful Gift,My Sister had broke her very costly Pamp er'd Chef spreader. So I went to AMAZON and looked for a replacement for her. I found these and had them sent to her. She was thrilled and said that are better then the old POS she had! Four knives for less then the price of one name brand POS. It was a great purchase!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
+3805,2,SECONDS,"A movie that is true to life in how many people probably really feel about their own lives...Very haunting and disturbing...DON'T miss this movie! Rock Hudson gives the performance of a lifetime. DVD has many extras, and well worth the price. Would give 10 stars if possible..."
+3806,2,Nowhere to go but up,"Pam Muñoz Ryan's, Becoming Naomi León, is a contempory realistic fiction that tells of a young girl's attempts to find out who she is. Set in a small town Naomi struggles with abandonment, manipulation, and a journey that takes her to another country in order for her to connect with a part of her family she doesn't even know.This is not a book for younger children and even with 9 -11 year olds; there are topics that parents should be willing to address. Some areas include child abandonment, children with special needs, and cultural bias to name a few. It is well written and was enjoyable to read."
+3807,1,Piece of Junk,I got this as a gift. It has never worked properly. I have tried to use it for almost a year now. It refuses to open cans without all kinds of adjusting and repeated attempts. I now use my manual can opener. Do not buy a Cuisinart can opener. It is a quality name on a Piece of Junk.
+3808,1,this album is old,"I really enjoyed this album a couple years ago, but it's starting to get to me now. I sure hope there new album will be good with all the guest stars on it. Personally i think if lb got themselves a different producer and stayed away from ross robinson they might actually sound original."
+3809,2,Hard Times is Good time of Entertainment,"Not your classic action movie. More of a drama. But there's plenty of action to see. That's what makes it so good to see. You get a good plot, excellent fight scenes (and Charles Bronson's physique is cut and looks like he may be one of these brawlers in real life), without all the blood, explosions, and sex -- and yet it still keeps you glued to the set. Now, to me, that's a good movie. Enjoy the fights."
+3810,1,Going Downhill,"I've been a loyal Norton Antivirus user for years, and consider myself pretty computer savvy, so I'm not usually put off by a minor problem or two. I put up with Antivirus 2006, which was really kludgy and had a terrible user interface. But Symantec has hit rock bottom with Antivirus 2007. Startup is abominably slow. ccApp won't properly close down. ccSvchost blows up at Windows shutdown. This product has been steadily going downhill as it gets bigger, and bigger, and ... I even removed the product and reinstalled, but to no avail. After reading other reviews, the last thing I want to do is speak to a service rep with a prepared script, except to demand my money back."
+3811,2,Agri Zap Rat Zapper Ultra,"We got a rat the first night . Works great.We have tried other traps, this is the best one ."
+3812,2,It was hilarious joke on me ... until I really needed it for a hangover. Love this!,"A friend bought one for everyone, given in Vegas on a trip. Adorable and we laughed. A few weeks ago I actually had a hangover and remembered I had this. Filled it up and it was so great on my pounding head - just like a 1950's movie. I can see myself using this for a headache too."
+3813,2,Not what I expected...but What a Great Book!,"I bought this book with the thought this would explore Christianity and Astrology. It doesn't.But I spent the money so I read it. Mr. Armstrong approaches astrology, or should I say sidereal astrology, in this book in a rather interesting manner. He begins by giving a long and drawn out background on himself and where he is coming from that you get caught up in his tale. Then he introduces vedic astrology in a manner not so complex and as foriegn as the average western astrologer might think it is.I came away with a greater respect for sidereal astrology, not seeing it as so much of a competitor of tropical astrology but as a companion. Scratch that...as a foundation for where we have came from and where we are today."
+3814,1,Inaccuracy on dinosaurs!,"King Kong has many problems with it, especially when it came to dinosaurs! First, brontosaurs were not carnivoris, so why was one eating people in this movie? Second, just like it's spines, stegasaurus's tail spikes were made of bone, so why did they bend like rubber in this movie? Other problems with this movie include the claymation (Kong looked like an ape with a rubber suit of armor instead of hair), and when somebody falls and lands in water from that hight, they should be dead. I don't care how many people didn't find this review helpful, because this is not a classic (especially when the Godzilla series can easily be considered better), and anyone who thinks it is, is blind!"
+3815,1,should have taken closer look at product shown on site.,"this item is perfect as far as it goes, but it is not the complete item that I thought i was ordering; i guess i should have looked closer to the item pictured before ordering."
+3816,1,CRIMINAL OFFENSE,"This is in true sense a ""criminal offense"". Are you serious? The last volume (#7) released in region 2 contains 4 movies, therefore we are eagerly waiting for the grand U.S. release of this season, and now we come to know there are only two movies instead of four? Truely speaking, only most important novel among those four is ""appointment with death"" and that is excluded from this set (probably kept aside for the U.S. set 5). Or, I am not sure that amazon put the correct product description in their site!!! because in Acron's latest re-releases of POIROT, all the other movie volumes include 3 movies at least. Only this volume 4 has two. So, dear AMAZON, you also make sure that you are showing the correct information. If that's not the case, then I would say - Acron media is at its best (in terms of their business) to cheat U.S. Poirot-fans.Agatha Christie's Poirot: The Movie Collection - Set 4"

Sure i know it's cutting it kind of close but estimated time of arrival was the 28th so i didn't do the expedited delivery. BIG MISTAKE!!! They didn't ship it from their office til Oct. 28!!! So i'mlooking at having all the accessories I bought to go along with them but no dress!!! So my opinion of the Zoogster costume company needs a good month it seems to ship your orders on time so beware people!!!!
+3818,2,A story about four girls who change their whole lives.,A brilliant book of true lives. Of great hopes and tragedies. A story someone has to read till the end.
+3819,2,A Modern Classic,"I consider this to be one of the best movies I have ever seen. It took me by surprise...I had seen the DVD in stores numerous times and never even considered renting or buying it; then a friend told me about it and loaned me the Ultimate Edition DVD. The acting was superb, the storyline very credible. I am not usually emotionally moved to tears by movies, but this one had me in tears at the end. There was not one actor in this movie that failed to impress me, and that's saying a lot these days. The film is very allegorical, and one scene that really got me was when Anthony Hopkins' character knocks on ""death's door."" I found myself thinking about the ramifications of that... The sound track was also very moving and includes some great old songs. The Ultimate DVD also has the old B&W original ""Death Takes a Holiday,"" as well as some very enjoyable bonus materials. A well put together package. I highly recommend this DVD."

+3821,1,Network connectivity issues after install,"I bought this software two days ago, Installed it on my laptop and all of a sudden, my network connection was messed up. I could not figure how to connect to the wireless or wired network. My other computers were still able to connect, so it was a problem with the computer with Fix It installed. After much work, I finally uninstalled the software and right away was able to get back on the network. I am not sure if there is some kind of firewall setting with the software, or if it was just the software itself.Anyway, I am unsure whether to reinstall this software or not."
+3822,1,Not loving it,"I really haven't been loving Lovely. It's beautifully packaged but the smell! I actually didn't even do a smell test because I thought that SJP would not put a foot wrong. Well, I was wrong. It is quite old-fashioned - like the scent that old women wear, it's musty as well. The bottle is really pretty but it just is too old-style for me. I'm going to use it now that I bought it but sometimes I get embarrassed and feel like saying - ""no I do not smell musty it's this perfume I'm determined to use up!"". Needless to say I've never received any compliments on the scent. I'm giving it two stars for the bottle design."
+3823,1,A very contemporary film... in the worst possible sense,"Around the time that games started making more money than films, movies began to look an awful lot like games and the last few Harry Potter films are no exception. Every scene has the same texture, dim lighting, awkward and indecipherable action sequences created by people who have likely spent far too much time indoors to know how things actually look and move.Not to be outdone, David Yates method directs like a binging Death Eater and drains any remaining signs of life from this once charming series. The main characters all but collapse under the weight of their faux grim and gritty makeovers. Cringe-worthy lines like, ""Not my daughter you b***h!"" pretty much ensure that this film will only be timeless as an object of ridicule, much like an avocado-colored refrigerator is today."
+3824,2,Very soothing,"I am a fan of Carlos Nakai anyway, but this a very peaceful album. I can sit and listen to it while meditating or put it on to help me get to sleep. It takes me places and speaks to me. Thank you for sharing your beautiful and inspiring music with us.."
+3825,1,Not the same quality as the single planes,"We bought a single Backyard Flyer plane locallyKid Galaxy ""Elite Fleet"" Backyard Flyer BiWing, then bought this 3-pack as a follow up because we were having so much fun with the first plane. Total disappointment! First, one of the three planes stuck to the plastic window of the packaging, losing paint. This plane is now off balance and does not fly right. Then, the launcher broke on the first use, one of the contacts fell off into the interior of the launcher, and it no longer works. Holding the launchers side-by-side, you can see the one that came with the 3-pack is not the same quality. We had put this away as a gift and so now are beyond the return period and stuck with only 2 useful planes out of the pack."
+3826,2,The Best Lurlene Mc Daniel book EVER!,"This is the best Lurlene Mc Daniel book I've EVER read, and I've read A LOT of them! It is about a girl named Desi, who volenteers to help out at Childcare. She form a special bond with an HIV baby, Alicia. The book is GREAT, but also VERY sad! I cried so much while reading it that I could hardly see. It makes you realize how lucky you are, and it teaches you that, even for innocent babies, life isn't fair. Through the story, I forgot that it was fiction, and I kept thinking, ""how could this happen to an inocent little baby?"" It is very sad, but also one of the most insperational books I've ever read."
+3827,2,A Fabulous Gadget Set,"This gadget set is heavy duty and very useful. I enjoy using all the pieces in the set, especially the ice cream scoop. I also like the peeler."
+3828,2,Not to be Rivaled...,"This is an amazing book. The sheer imagination required to come up with the world in which the main character, Phaedre, inhabits is simply mindboggling (check out the details as written by professional reviewers). Ms. Carey writes with a skill I've rarely come across in this genre. The depth and breadth of her story which spans three books, ingnites a compulsion to read all three in one fell swoop. What I like best is the very humanity of the characters. The good guys have flaws and the villians have their sympathetic moments. Most important, I never once went ""Oh riiiggghht, like THAT could happen"", even though the most fantastic things do happen. Ms. Carey manages to infuse realism into every situation. I'm heartbroken that the series appears to be finished. I could do with more of Phaedre's adventures. Read these books!"
+3829,2,Another keeper,This is another one that you can't put down. It keeps you so ingrossed that you just have to know what happens next. The action just never stops.
+3830,2,Overlooked Great Read!!!,"It is always shocking to read a fantastic book that no one knows about. """"Those the Sun Has Loved"" is out of print while there are shelves loaded with junk in bookstores. This is absolutely one of my favorites stories. To quote a 4/27/2010 article eulogizing Rose Jourdain by Janet G. Messenger in the Evanston Roundtable, ""Those the Sun Has Loved"" is a saga of romance, war, politics, adventure and family with history folded in. It stretches over 200 years and seven generations of a free African American family, from 1773 in Surinam on the north coast of South America to the 1970s in the United States."" This is a book the reader will not be able to put down once it is begun. There is NO one whom I have shared this book with over the years who did not love it, also."
+3831,1,"The Worst, most Horrifyng Book on Pregnancy","I am pregnant with my first baby, excited and, obviously, clueless. I thought this would be the perfect book for me. After reading the entire thing, I am scared out of my mind. It was nothing but negative, as if pregnancy were the worst thing that could ever happen to anyone. Even when the author talks about seeing the baby for the first time, her emphasis is on how ugly he or she will be. I realize that her aim is to be truthful, which she is, but can't she find anything to be happy about? She seems to be one of those women who hate their children for giving them stretch marks and extra pounds. If you are looking for an upbeat, caring guide to pregnancy, this is NOT it."
+3832,2,Great Book!,This was a great book. I finished it in 1 day. I thought it was the best reasearch guide you have ever written. (Steven)
+3833,1,For One Hundred Dollars it should be half way assembled!,"I just purchased this item from Babies R Us today. I asked the salesperson if it was difficult to assemble, he said not really...well he lied through his teeth!I have bought and assembled more baby products than the normal consumer and this one is a definate challenge!! After working on it for over an hour I've decided to return it and get another model. I don't think it's worth the effort.The seat on the saucer has very little padding and it doesn't look at all comfortable for a little child. Very dissappointed in this product, the picture on the box looked fabulous!"
+3834,1,Crash and Burn,"this Cd puts me into a coma. its so damn slow, i can't listen to it without getting bored right away. it has only has two good tracks: ""Reload"" and ""Brick Windows"" which are (Fortunately) really good. if you're one of those metal fans who are now coming to their senses by trying industrial rock then you should probably warm up to the genre with this album."
+3835,2,GREAT STUFF PC11...!!!!!,"I had a leak from the water supply line into the house. Just where the line goes thru the brick. I tried liquid steel...I tried epoxy...but it couldn't take the pressure...I put pc11 on a rusty pine (I didn't clean anything)...I put it on thick about 1/4"" at 3pm...at 7pm I checked it and there was a hard crust on the outside...just to be safe I waited to 7am to turn the water back on. This worked GREAT!!!! If you are like me and when all else fails read the directions, then this is for you. I don't think you can do it wrong.....try it you'll like it."
+3836,1,Junk,"This fell apart within minutes, I would not recommend it. The light is too dim and the spring to hold it is far too weak."
+3837,2,Great but could improve,The diaper champ definetly keeps the odor down but the diapers always get stuck in the lid . Which means the handle will not turn and always has to be fixed. If they could fix that it would be perfect.
+3838,2,An intriguing and well written book,"Tablets is a thoroughly intriguing read, comparable to James Michener and Leon Uris. CJ Illinik's writing style easily captures both men and women readers and the premise is plausible with the characters both colorful and developed. Anyone who has lived or explored in Turkey will enjoy the descriptions of different Asia Minor cultures over the centuries. I particularly enjoyed the Gregorian monk character. I look forward to reading more from CJ Illinik."
+3839,2,Amazing Love Story,"This book it was well narrated and it's a beautifull love story. Once, you start reading you can't stop ....The events inspires you to re-evaluate how you really love your husband or your couple and how you appreciates simple things on live."
+3840,2,The Axes of Evil,"""The Vikings"" is one of a handful of all-time favorite movies. It was a staple of the 10:30 Saturday night movies of the 1960s, and I never missed it! Finally, I have it on DVD, and it's magnificent.The final conflict between the Kirk Douglas and Tony Curtis characters on the castle's stone flanks is one of the most memorable scenes in cinema. However, my favorite scene is the brief one in which Kirk Douglas jumps across the chasm to the raised drawbridge and climbs the battle axes that have been flung into its wood.""The Vikings"" is a visual masterpiece, and it's great fun to watch. It has jumped across the late night TV chasm from the big screen (1958) to DVD (2002), and I'm forever grateful!"
+3841,1,Horrible craftsmanship!,"It falls apart if you TOUCH it. The head is too heavy for the top and constantly makes it tip over, or it falls off on its own and takes a myriad of other pieces with it. There isn't a SINGLE piece that actually stays where it should once a child touches it. My 3 1/2 year old loves the dinosaurs and sound effects of this toy and will play with the pieces while waiting for Mommy to help him put it back together again - which is time consuming and frustrating because it will only go right back to the pile of junk it was to begin with as soon as it is touched. You'd be better off going to the dollar store and buying a can of 12 plastic dinosaurs - those are the only things your child will be able to touch if you buy this anyway."
+3842,1,This is not ARS!,"I purchased this CD and assumed I would hear the rich, melodic harmonies of several vocalists; in other words, the original recordings grouped together on one CD! I don't know who is singing these songs but it sounds like Karaoke night at the local drink-n-puke! Every song is flat, tasteless and monochromatic; like how a CD would sound in the world of the ""Langoliers!"" Yuk, yuk, yuk!"
+3843,1,gross,was definitely looking forward to getting this and ended up being disappointed! i ordered this because i was trying to find the exact saf-t pops i had when i was a kid but it tasted weird.
+3844,1,Doesn't smell like grass at all.,"The candle has a pleasant scent, but it is perfumy and not at all like cut grass. No one who I've shared it with think so either. So, it's not worth it at all if you want something that smells like cut grass."
+3845,1,Flammable,I got rid of it...too dangerous.I didn't realize how dangerous it can be.I am afraid to use it.I can't say how it works since I threw it out.
+3846,1,Vineyard USA failing,"After listening to this project, I've still yet to find any new Vineyard USA songs to use on a Sunday. The production is good but...where is the strong material? The UK and Canada Vineyard writers are mopping up the US as far as great worship.Recently I heard a song through the grapevine that really stands out. It's Chris Lizotte's ""I Will Trust You"" (soon to be released). Now THAT'S a great worship song. Keep getting those tunes out, and things could turn around for the states. Search harder and longer for those great songs! As a worship leader in the Vineyard, I'm finding more excellent material from independent artists like Chris Tomlin. It's a shame..."
+3847,1,Don't bother,"This book is full of cliches, making it pretty much unreadable. I don't think I've ever read anything so poorly written.Don't waste your money!"
+3848,2,Treasure,"These are ""My Boys"". I don't know what else to say. I loved them then and I love them now. This movie transports me back to a wonderful time when they were everything to me. I still watch it with a big smile on my face and laugh at the ease with which they toss off a ""comeback"" line at each other.They look beautiful. The sound is great. The music is amazing still.If you were ever a Beatles fan, the ownership of this film is a must."
+3849,1,"LitterMaid Self-Cleaning Automatic Litter Box, Sage and Cream","Unless your an idiot & like wasting your money & the frustration of their so called tech support which advises you to get out tools & then they tell you how to dissemble this or that part to try & fix what is broke right out of the box, avoid at all cost,,,oh yea, did i mention what an extremely poor job it does?"
+3850,2,Hot Dancefloor Track,"This is an excellent club/dance song by Thelma Houston. Her vocals are robust, soulful & firery as always. The music is great as well. This song rocketed to the top 10 and peaked at #5 on the Hot Dance Music/Club Play chart. Anyone that is into 90's dance music should get this, you will not be dissappionted."
+3851,2,Good Book,"This is a superb book for some one who is just starting to investigate the subject of employee retention. It is short, easy to understand, and flows well. The information that is provided is practical and timely. A quick read on the subject of employee retention for those who do not have a lot of time to find, read, and analyze the multitude of books available on the subject."
+3852,2,One of the best books I've read in a long time,"My fiance actually wanted me to read this book. When I started it, I was a little skeptical, but as I kept reading, I became more and more engrossed. The lessons in this book are ones that are by no means new, but everyone needs a subtle reminder now and then as to what really matters in our lives. I learned many things from this book, and I share many of Mr. Hartmann's opinions and views as expressed in this marvelous book. Everyone should read it, it might make for a better way of living, a personal transformation if you will..."
+3853,2,camera,Great Camera and it has given me some very memorable memories. Birthdays and events being one of them. I highly suggest this product.
+3854,2,Don't laugh! They work!,"I've heard some people scoff at the idea of wearing ""onion glasses"", but my wife and I each have a pair in the kitchen and they work great for us: no tears, no itchy, red eyes and ""I can't see!"" anymore. I downgrade them by just one star because they could be a little tighter on the face, seeing as how the foam rims are supposed to seal out all fumes. They keep about 90% of them out, though. But all the other old tricks to keep from crying when cutting onions, such as lighting a candle nearby or holding your onions underwater or outdoors--either they don't work for us or are inconvenient. I vote for the onion goggles!"
+3855,1,Not what I expect,Had problems keeping linked up. Impossible to backups of the Drive. At least for me.
+3856,1,Downhill.....try Dreaming of You,"I don't read any romance novels EXCEPT for Lisa Kleypas, a strange habit I picked up when she came out with her first (now out of print) book.She makes a point to explore different kinds of love, and she is a great sensualist, and can be quite funny.But....her older work is so much better, it's stunning. It's as if all the rich detail she used to put in her early books is too much effort, and now we get the barest, sketchiest description. She's actually a good writer, but if you've never read her before, try ""Dreaming of You""."
+3857,1,I'll never buy a Maxtor/Seagate product again,Nothing new to add or say about this miserable product that hasn't already been said; the hard drive failed just like everyone else's and there's nothing that can be done.
+3858,2,Fascinating,"The book is a great survey of Russian culture and art since the Christianity of the lands. The vivid narration drags the reader into the beautiful world. The offered pictures are fantastic and I hope I will have the chance to see those things myself when I travel to Russia. However, the book was written some time ago and it has some out-of-date details. Plus I found it to be a bit idealistic from the history point of view. I would add a bit more pragmatic tone to this book. Otherwise, a pleasurable reading.I would also recommend Natasha's Dance: a cultural history of Russia. It is a more modern outlook."
+3859,2,Educational,"This book packs a lot of information into very few pages. Bugliosi does a good job of supporting his suppositions with law. There are so many points made, most everyone will be unaware of some of them. The biggest drawback for me was that sometimes Bugliosi strays into name-calling which leads one to begin to doubt if some of the scholarship isn't slanted more than is obvious at first blush."
+3860,2,WORKED,"Although this worked, it was not the answer I needed in my instance. But it was inexpensive, so not a big deal. If you have an IDE computer and are trying to use a SATA DVD ROM, then get an HDE SATA to PATA/IDE adapter."
+3861,1,Character assassination from bitter hangers-ons/failed musicians.,"I read this book at the library, for there's no way I'd drop any cash for a book that is nothing more than an exercise in character assassination. These two former friends of Ace's are not only lousy writers, they are also hangers-ons who failed musicians who should be glad they got to hang with Ace for any amount of time, for that would be the biggest shot at ""celebrity"" life they'd ever get.I'll admit that some of the stories tend to be somewhat amusing. Sure, Ace has had his problems, has made his mistakes, and took part in lots of immature behavior when he was younger; but what do you expect from a rock star? In their effort to make Ace look bad, the authors end up making themselves look pretty bad, too; two grown men whining about how their celebrity friend ""mistreated"" them, and how Ace supposedly got them to do things they hated -- as if neither one of these clowns has a mind of his own."
+3862,1,Bad After Taste,This particular food item left a lot to be desired. The powdered cheese left a very bad after taste. I will not be purchasing this item again. The only positive plug I shall give is that the serving size is generous.
+3863,1,There is a reason this controller costs less,"It costs less than the official Nintendo controller. Thats the only good thing about it. When I got mine for Christmas, It worked once, and never worked again. I couldnt figure out what the problem was, so I took it back to the game store, and the guy there told me that other people had the same problem!Also, the controll stick, side buttons, and A buttons are different - they are not as comfortable or as easy to use as the Nintendo's controller. I suggest you buy a controller made by Nintendo. It may cost a little more, but you can be sure, you'll love it."
+3864,1,Don't Waste Your Time or Money,"You will read other reviews saying that the coffee maker would dump coffee all over the counters. I read them too thinking as another reviewer that it couldn't be that bad. Well it was. After six months of battling this beast, we finally put it to rest along with a $140 investment. Don't waste your time or money on this one. I wish that we had not."
+3865,2,Fantastic Book. Practically a Work of Art,"Donald Bull obviously knows his corkscrews. He has assembled a fascinating exposition on corkscrews which delights your eyes as you turn each page. If you thought corkscrews were just for opening bottles, you're wrong. Donald Bull shows you that corkscrews are works of art as well.The layout is beautiful and his corkscrew erudition is undoubtable. You should get a copy for yourself. A work of art."
+3866,1,Teaching Mrs. Tingle,"I did not like this movie much at all. It was not boring, it was just so stupid. The one good thing about the movie is that Mrs. Tingle represents every teacher that you despised, and on that level I liked this movie. On every other level the film failed miserabley."
+3867,2,I LOVE THAT SONG!!!!!,"""When the Lights go Out"" is the coolest song ever! I listen to it over and over and over and will never get tired of it! The beat makes you want to get up and dance and their voices are so full of style and funk you'll NEVER get tired of them!"
+3868,1,Didn't work - not happy,"I was very disappointed! I received the wrong remote and it didn't work for my vehicle. In order to get the right remote I would need to send it back and include $8 to get the right one. Very disappointed with product, and customer service."
+3869,1,Awful!,"I was looking forward to this album, but after listening to the first disc ( and wanting to turn it off sooner, but wanted to give it a fair run), I found the sounds to be poor even on quality equipment. I enjoy doo wop, but this was too ""screechy"" and difficult to listen to."
+3870,2,MUST HAVE,"I can sum this up easily, this is a MUST HAVE for any true alias or Jenn fan,it gives the truth, great accurate summerys of every show, a mini biography on each character, behind the scens, like the music, and story boards, and how JJ came up with the idea, oh, and a vary long and detailed intro about the show, and the relationship between the characters. Not to mention all the great pic's! you must get this!!!!!"
+3871,2,Child's Fanatasy story,"This is a nice long bedtime book for my 3 yr old. Long ago I had a calendar of the artwork in this book. When my son was born, I had 3 of the pictures matted and framed for the nursery. Later, I had to hunt down the book to go along with it. The artwork is wonderful for this mechanical engineer mom and budding engineer son.The story is as good as the artwork. It follows a child's imagination to the world of the Great Kettles. I would recommend for ages 4-8.Younger children may not sit still. Nor do they understand about time, the Man in the Moon, Mother Nature, etc."
+3872,2,But I didn't have the ABILITY,"The funniest comedian I've seen in years!! Maybe ever!! I laughed so hard I could hardly breathe. Whether it's on DVD, VHS, audio, comedy channel, or in person, you have GOT to see this guy!! Well worth your money and your time."
+3873,2,Better than Last Time...,"Honestly, even though there were a few of those ""ear-pain"" songs on this CD (Haters and Mr. James Dean), this was much better than the first one! The first one was kinda too much bubblegum child-pop while this one is much more rock-style. A great CD for kids whose teens object to the other million-making stars of today! :)"
+3874,2,Awesome....,"I love it... Intially i had so much of confusion which one to buy, at the same time i dont want to put much money... Based on tbe reveiw i bought it and now am using everday... Its so helpful.I recommend this to everyone. It's easy to use...even in travel.i absolutely love this product."
+3875,1,A Meandering Character Study,The Lovely Bones is really a series of character studies. The story kind of meanders along and there's not much resolution. Don't pick up this book thinking it's a mystery that will be solved. The focus of the story is how the protagonist's death changes her family.
+3876,1,Graffiti World,"The color photos are cool. It's too bad so many photo's are missed credited or listed as ""unknown"". Big mistake if your trying to catalog or archive anything especially art. This deprives the artist his place in history and the credit he deserves. It also prevented this reader from learning something new . I enjoyed the CMP and Cope stuff. Over all there wasn't enough I liked about it for me to recommend this book. The up side is I just got hip hop files and I love it :)"
+3877,1,Only lasts for 2 years! Don't buy it. Keep searching for reviews,"After only two years, it won't turn on immediately and purple and green grid covers the screen. Thought it was only MY tv but when searching online for troubleshooting, I found it is very consistent and Samsung is NOT taking responsibility. Loved it for the first two years, but that would be $1000 per year to watch TV. Not worth it. Keep shopping"
+3878,2,Evolution in progress,"I highly recommend the album Gutterflower by ""Goo Goo Dolls"".Although ""Gutterflower"" shows no sign of ""Goo Goo Dolls'"" harderrock past, its catchy melodies are still present in this album.Compared to ""Dizzy Up The Girl"", the songs are more up-beat onthe average, and contain no string section. Therefore, theysound more rock-ish than the previous album. So if you thought""Dizzy Up The Girl"" was too soft for you, give ""Gutterflower""a trial spin, you won't regret it."
+3879,2,perfect,"I love my laptop desk, very easy to assemble. I use it every day from my chair to my couch to the bed. Very easy to adjust, sturdy and comfortable. The shelves are just a added bonus."
+3880,1,Cheaply made carnival prize,"i bought this tiger and i recieved it today and am very dissapointed. the stuffing is hard, the fur is short and not very soft and it is not nearly as big as i thought it would be. it is closer to four feet minus the tail. i could have won this by tossing rings at bottles at an amusement park- and it probably would be bigger. this tiger bites."
+3881,2,GREAT BUY!!!,"I bought this item for my friend in the Philippines. It was really a good deal, FREE shipping at a lower price compared to other online stores. My friend is so happy when he received the item. BEST BUY!!!"
+3882,2,Excellent,"Easily one of the best books I have ever read. It had a very good, very twisty plot that was outstanding. I loved the short chapters than made for easy reading. Treat yourself to this masterpiece. Angels and Demons which also features the same character is also a great read."
+3883,1,Sucks worse than Blair Witch,"I think they were aiming to make a ""Blair Witch Meets Godzilla"" kind of movie, but the movie just plain sucked. And not in a good way, like Ed Wood, Phil Tucker or even Anthony Cardoza movies sucked, which in spite of being horrible were still entertaining. At no point did I feel any of the ""suspense"" they were going for, it was just boring. Thank God my DVD player has a ""fast play"" speed which allowed me to plow through this turkey in less than an hour, or I would not have made it through to the end. Lots of xtras on the DVD, but why would you want to watch a short on the making of a lousy movie. Maybe the ""explaination"" of where the monster came from in the first place was in one of the xtras, but I did not care enough to invest the time finding out. Deserves zero stars, but you cannot give it less than one."
+3884,1,Humor is out of place for a Christian book,"Book was recommended by a friend but I didn't get past the chapter called ""Church"" because I just don't think that we should have to be joking about things like like this. Why would the writer describe for instance a doctor who told people that they had a week to live so that he could witness to them about eternal life? This is not funny. This is tragic! We are to be sober and vigilant, not funny and entertaining. There is nothing humorous about church or the gospel message. We need to cut out this sort of thing."
+3885,1,Complete Crap,"Duke Lion Fights The Terror by Big Dumb Face is an exaple of Limp Bizkit's Wes Borland trying to prove that because he is part of the (for some stupid reason)all-mighty Limp Bizkit, that he can make an album that is complete crap, put a sticker on it, advertising that he is from Limp Bizkit, and sell millions of albums. Kind of a mockary of the record consumer. Well, let's prove him wrong and not let ourselves be forced to listen to such commercialized crap that the record labels call music in order to steal our hard earned paychecks. If you want to hear this garbage. . . download a free mp3 of it!"
+3886,1,Don't buy this!,This is a review of a book that is no longer in print or available (Business Research by Charles Smith).
+3887,1,"EH... AS FAR AS HORROR MOVIES GO, NO BIG DEAL...",... there's a strong made-for-TV vibe about this movie... 'nuff said.
+3888,1,Abridged!!??!!,"Just so you know: the Oxford World Classics edition of LA REINE MARGOT is abridged. Oxford ""justifies"" the abridged version by saying it's the best known, but I think if MARGOT were as popular as THE COUNT OF MONTE CRISTO, Oxford would spend the extra money to give it to us in full. I understand things like Readers Digest condensing books for the masses, but shouldn't something as scholarly as Oxford World Classics give us the real thing? What about Dumas fans who want to read his stories they way he wrote them? Most Dumas readers aren't afraid of long books, especially if they've read MONTE CRISTO or VICOMTE DE BRAGELONNE(which is almost TWICE as long as MONTE CRISTO). Unfortunately, the unabridged version seems only available in French. But I'm a biggish Dumas fan, so I read Oxford's abridged MARGOT rather than nothing. It's great, Great, GREAT, but a shadow hung over the entire book making wonder what I was missing. What Dumas-esque character moments did I miss? What details?"
+3889,2,The *MOST* unique artist whose talent will be sorely missed,"Eva Cassidy was one of the most UNIQUE and seriously overlooked Talents that hail from my hometown in Maryland~ whose vocal ability is absolutely incredible~ a gift from God.The world is just starting to discover her,and unfortunately she is no longer alive to reap the rewards of her hard work.You cannot be taught to sing like Eva,she sings every song through the core of her soul and places her vocal signature on every song she sings.Knowing she is in heaven singing with the angels gives peace in knowing where she is~ but the world has lost an incredible singer~tears well up everytime I hear her incredible voice and like many other vocal greats of all time~ her talent will be sorely missed.I guarantee if you purchase ANY of her CD's you will be listening to an absolute fortune!!"
+3890,1,Just plain boring.,"Never have I have struggled so much trying to finish a book. Finally I gave up, because frankly, I just didn't care anymore.The author spends way too much time describing every nook and crany of the scene to the point of being boring, and then leaves little to say about the actual characters. The story also jumps around so much it's hard to follow. As soon as it gets somewhat interesting, the story jumps to a new time and place, with all new characters with no history.I really wanted to like the book, and gave it multiple chances, but it was just not for me."
+3891,2,Good stuff,I've bought this product several times.My wife is handicap and needs an automatic dispenser.Amazon seems to be the best place to buy it.I get it cheaper without paying an arm and a leg for shipping.
+3892,2,AWESOME!,"DELICIOUS! This is a rock & roll tour of the raunchiest bachelor parties ever. Right off the bat a sweet motion menu pops up and lets you decide what party to visit first, but it really doesn't matter because they all rock. Every party has 2 chicks performing, dudes getting drunk, and having a blast. I got totally turned on by the whip cream show. A must see. I never laughed so hard at guys going gonzo at bachelor parties. One bachelor is walked around like a dog and spanked. Another dude goes crazy and puts on the strippers clothes and dances for them. a lot wildness and nudity in this bad boy. I wish I had a camera when the wives see this one."
+3893,1,Fiction in the guise of non-fiction,"Clear from the details that the author has had only superficial exposure to Japan and finance. While purporting to be ""the true story"", this is clearly a sensational presentation of an amalgamation of exaggerated stories that have made their way around the Toyko market. Good escapist fiction to blow away an afternoon, but not to be confused with reality."
+3894,2,Hard Rock,"This cd I baught mainly for 2 songs:Cold Shower and Sex.If you like to hear 80's hard rock,you will like this one.It only has 1 slow song on it.The other songs are good to listen to every once in a while."
+3895,2,This is the one you want,"This is the top one to buy right now for home users. Some important things to note.(1) Make sure you turn off the Microsoft Wireless Zero Configuration service. You do that in the Control Panel --> Services. Then you install the vendor-supplied wireless software, and you'll have no connection drops. This is important because Microsoft Zero Configuration Service is a piece of crap.(2) Make sure you use some sort of authentication for wireless, preferably WEP 128 combined with MAC Address Filtering.(3) After you get it up and running (reading the instructions) do a firmware upgrade and update your firmware to the latest version.Mine has been running for almost a year and I've never had a single problem."
+3896,2,I love this book!,This book is my favorite book because it is very funny. And at the beginning Ax thinks the movies are a big part of our planet.AX thinks chocolate is brown globules.
+3897,1,Early Start For Jackie.,"This was Jackie Chan's first lead role and he didn't even do his whole role. You can tell there is a double because he's always looking away from the camera, and is blind folded in the final fight. It also is a revenge plot. Jackie can really move in this movie."
+3898,2,I Don't Care If You Hate Dickens - BUY THIS!,"I am not a Dickens fan, and I think Bleak House as a book is almost unreadable. But this production takes that book and makes it into a TERRIFIC series.All the performances are great, but the ""Show Stealer"" is Anna Maxwell Martin as Esther Summerson, the lead character/narrator. Ms Martin is ""Letter Perfect.""I have given this DVD to a couple of friends who also are not particular fans of Charlie D. All had the same reaction that I did. So BUY IT!"
+3899,1,I will never buy these again,"I should have paid attention to the other reviews. These liners are very thin and flimsy. My cats had scratched MANY holes after just the first use and now I'm going to have a big mess to clean when I need to change out the litter. I will be doubling or tripling up next time, until I go through all of these (hate to waste money) and then I will never be purchasing these again. So disappointed. You'd expect better from the actual creators of the Booda Dome."
+3900,1,Escape Claws,We have a 4 month old Maltipoo and it took her about a week to learn to climb out of this.
+3901,2,"""My arms are so tired . . .","from scrubbing and disinfecting a 30 yard perimeter around my house!"" my friend told me after reading this book. While she was joking, I understand exactly how she felt! This is a scary, scary book; more frightening than any medical thriller I've read, and, even worse, IT'S TRUE! Be prepared to start opening public doors with your sleeve around your hand, freaking out if someone coughs or sneezes on you, and becoming a compulsive hand-washer! My family thinks I'm nuts when I keep mentioning ""foreign germs,"" but I just think they're uninformed. They don't understand why, perhaps, they should be afraid, BE VERY AFRAID!"
+3902,1,Crashed twice,"I received a Rio Karma for Xmas. I had it less then a week and the unit crashed. Hard drive failure. I call Tech support and after some time on the line they replaced it. I had my second player for 3 months and was using it only in the dock hook to my stereo and the hard drive crashed again. Hard Drive Failure again. I called Tech support and they said they were going to ship me another unit. I got the e-mail tracked it and was looking forward to it arriving BUT they shipped it to the wrong address. I called and they confirmed that they shipped it to the wrong address and said another one would be shipping, this was a week ago. I called today and it still has not shipped as yet. If you are looking to buy a Karma you may wish to bid on mine on e-bay because when the replacement arrives that is where it will be and I will put the funds towards an I-pod."
+3903,2,"Acceptable sound, strong performance","My disc was not defective. But while ""Little Pixie"" played fine, it does fade out before the end, so the band never reaches its full climax. Oh, well. Still an important document."
+3904,2,ipod nano 4gb-white,"I love the ipod nano. It started when my friend got one, so I did to. I just got it today, and listening to it right now (Everclear- Father of Mine) and I LOVE IT. The case that comes with it is OK for now.I recommend getting the largest version (Max storage)"
+3905,2,Ann Coulter tells it like it is,"This book is guaranteed to get praises from conservatives and scathing criticism from liberals, but in all probability, Ann wouldn't have it any other way. Someone has to be brave enough to step out there and represent conservative views in a world inundated by liberal ideology, and she's definitely doing her part to lead the charge."
+3906,1,Space Bags don't work,"I've read another review on this site and completely agree, this item would be great if it actually worked. The problem is, it doesn't, at all. It tricks you into thinking how great it is because initially it does flatten out to an amazingly small fraction of it's original stuffed size, but within several minutes to several hours, it reinflates not saving any space at all.When the first set I purchased had these issues, I contacted customer service and was told to be sure that I didn't over stuff (which I hadn't) and that I could have a defective gasket. I then saw a set at BBB which said ""improved."" I bought it and had the exact same issue. In addition, any of the previous ones I tried to reuse, now had tears and holes from being stored. I ended up with a total of 9 space bags, NONE of which work as advertised.Again, this is a great idea but these things just don't work. Don't waste your $."
+3907,2,Nice necklace,"Ordered for a soon-to-be 13 year old girl that wants to be an Egyptologist. Have not given it to her yet, but I think she will love it. It is a nice looking necklace."
+3908,2,The Arch of Knowledge,"A fantastic history of philosophy with a scientific spin. From Plato and Aristotle, through Galileo, Descartes, Leibniz and Newton to Positivists, Pragmatists and right up to the 80s!Terrific as a popular overview but includes a comprehensive bibliography for more serious readers."
+3909,2,Thick with facinating information and personal accounts,"Facinating account of the life of the Geisha. If you read Arthur Golden's Memoir of a Geisha and loved it, this book is a must. It gives the reader great background about information only touched on in Golden's book. Together, they are a great compliment to the full understanding of the Geisha. I enjoyed both the historical account as well as Downer's experience in the Geisha quarters. This book somewhat dispells the notion that Geisha are merely Japan's version of a high class ""call girl."" The Geisha are much more than that even though there is money in exchange for their companionship or entertainment. As a fast reader, this book did take me a long time to finish. I attribute this to the fact that the book combines history and story so the reader needs to focus on the information in order to fully understand concepts and move forward. I describe it as wading through chocolate pudding, entirely enjoyable just slow."
+3910,1,Disappointing,"I was expecting more in-depth exploration of the subject. The author spent a whole lot of time telling the reader that not much was known about the subject because people who would be in position to know her personally have not spoken out. It seems as if the author had attempted to write an in-depth look, was not able to secure interviews that would accomplish this, even after travelling extensively . He then just seemed to quote other author's works to complete the book. I just don't feel he had enough information to have written and advertised this work as the ""life and crimes of Irma Grese""."
+3911,1,Not for oily hair,"I noticed some folks are talking about Low-Poo too. Yes, No Poo is not for oily hair. The Curly Girl book tells us that too. Use Low-Poo. The stylist washed my hair w/No Poo today even tho I told her it would be too heavy and sure enough, way too heavy. PI don't like the way it feels -- like conditioner needing to be rinsed out. Sshe also used Angel and some other leave in thing. Too much on the goopy side, and too much fragrance for me. plus I don't like the smell of the products. I prefer fragrance free. I personally don't mind my frizzy curls. I like hair that doesn't look wet, and curls that don't look man-made. I have Boticelli plus wavy curls, plus oily. I get compliments on my hair all the time, when I don't use product in it, and when I don't use Deva Curl. I love the cutting method, not the products."
+3912,1,no fun at all,"we all play halo for hours on end at work and i was looking for another 4 player game and this seemed like the a great choice based on all the reviews i read. so the four of sit down and try playing for about 15 minutes, decide the game is simple, boring and you just pull the triggers alot and kill numerous zombies, it takes no skill. we turned it off and started playing halo again."
+3913,2,Narnia 1 of my fave book and movie series in the world,"i really absouletly love Narnia and everything to do with the chronicles of narnia it is so fun imaginative amazing jam packed with the many different types of creatures ever your imagination with these stories and the magical funness and getting taken away to another land while reading and watching narnia this movie is really well done and i love that made another one from the bbc version and i enjoy them and love them both.the bonus stuff on this disc even though it's not the dvd with the tons of the bonus stuff is still good like narnia facts while you can watch the movie ,commentary from the kids who stared in the film along with the director andrew adamson and blooper's.so i give it five stars cause narnia is just amazing,imaginative,fun,captiving,take you away from the real world fanatasy and adventure that anyone can get lured away into narnia wanting to read all of them."
+3914,2,Epiphone Les Paul Special II,"This is a great guitar. If you want a Les Paul styled guitar this is your guitar. Just be aware that just cuz it looks like a L.P. guitar does not mean that it will sound like the real thing (a Gibson L.P.) That was something I learned very quickly. Ha Ha. But all in all for the price this is a great looking, great feeling and good sounding guitar."
+3915,2,Great kids Movie,This was just an addition to our collection as we already had the 1st Jungle Book. My 4 year old loves it.
+3916,1,Smarmy over-rated and over-played,"I purchased 'Back to Bedlam' after reading that James Blunt was being hailed as the male Tori Amos. Being a Toriphile I was intrigued and very excited to hear this album. What a disappointment! I tried. I listenned to this album at least 10 times and just cant stand it. Sure its up close and personal but its uninspired and lackluster. Its like listening to bad, adolescent poetry set to elevator music! ""You're beautiful"" makes me want to hit myself in the head with a hammer til I'm dead. No wonder Weird Al Yankovic did a parody called ""You're pitiful"",(available for download on his website). 'Beautiful' could very easily have come directly from a love-note passed in middle school algebra class. Lets hope Mr. Blunt stays off the subway and to all the women in the world, PLEASE AVOID DIRECT EYE CONTACT WITH JAMES BLUNT! I gave the CD to my secretary because she expressed an interest. She hates it too!"
+3917,1,Who is this person and what did she do with our Iris?,"Taken by itself, this album isn't all that bad. Looking at the country genre as a whole, it's better than a lot out there. But compared with Iris's debut it's heartbreaking to see her downslide into what my grandmother would call Nashville Trash.The pure-hearted simplicity I fell in love with has been replaced by overblown arrangements and a deep, dogmatic cynicism. ""When My Morning Comes Around"" and ""This Kind of Happy"" are the better tracks on this CD, but they pale to pretty much all of Infamous Angel. ""Trouble"" and ""Letter to Mom"" are just plain embarassing.Iris, where did you go wrong?"
+3918,2,wonderful !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!,My daughter absolutely loves this book and had to have it. Says it's her favorite book. She read this at school and wanted it for her own personal library.
+3919,2,worked as advertised,This worked as advertised and eliminated having to tap into the wiring harness (and figure out which wires to use).
+3920,2,Everything it is cracked up to be,"The other reviews are very accurate and I won't repeat them. I want to make only two additional observations. One, this is 99% a political history, a history of war, diplomacy, statecraft, empire and government. There is virtually nothing regarding art, culture, society, economy, daily life etc. The other more pragmatic note for potential buyers is the font of this edition is on the small side which makes for a long read for older eyes."
+3921,1,"Too dark, literally!","The book was a mind blower - horrible to read about, but excellent reading.The movie? Couldn't see a darn thing! I HATE movies that MUST be filmed in the dark.Let us see it!!!!!If it hadn't been for the book, I wouldn't have known what the heck it was about!"
+3922,2,Excellent How-to book.,"My wife and I were getting ready to finalize plans to build our dream home in South Dakota. We did not want to do it the same way that every else did. In other words we were looking for something different. We heard about this book and thought we would give it a try. Rebecca Dianne and I have been very pleased to say the least. This book has given us so many alternatives to look at in the building process that it amazes me that we didn't think of it before. It would be wonderful if there would be a follow-up every year or so to keep us abreast of changes in the field. The one thing that pleased me greatly was that the book was writen so that anyone could understand it. Most of these books are written like college textbooks, this one I am happy to report is written for the lay person. Hats off to Rick and Dan."
+3923,2,Unreal,"I bet the last person who posted was first in line to cash his 6 bucks though right? Make some sense dude, seriously. Your crying because you say you didnt get enough back, well how much in taxes did you PAY into before the tax credit!? Thought so.Good book overall. Sean has alot of topics correct. Sometimes I cant take his strong conservative beliefs. Sean, take a breathe once in a while will you!? A little too much preaching but overall a good read."
+3924,1,Doesn't display 16:9 content in correct ratios,"I'm disappointed with this TV. The only way to see the entire picture from a 16:9 HD source is in the 4:3 mode, which compresses the 16:9 picture from the sides to fill the 4:3 screen. There is no option for a letterbox picture (so people don't look ridiculously fat or skinny).I called Magnavox and they confirmed that this is the correct functioning of the television. Not exactly HD, then, is it?"
+3925,2,"Good collection but I wish it was 81-98,","As far as I know, there's not a video collection to go along with the 81-85 CD. For the reviewer who was complaining about the ""quality"" of the early videos, those are all from the Music for the Masses era, and were filmed in grainy black and white on purpose (I assume). That's what the videos look like. That's what they looked like in 1987. All in all, though, great collection of DM's videos. Especially the ones that weren't released in the states like Home and Little 15."
+3926,1,had hope but it was a dud,This did not work out as well as I had hoped. The biggest problem was that it did not recognize my sons voice. We were never able to get it to function properly. It irratically responded to other noises and became a nusance. BIG WASTE OF MONEY.
+3927,1,ID clip,ID clip keeps falling off and my ID tag separates from the latch. Not a great product. Look elsewhere. Waste of money
+3928,1,Vidalia Chop Wizard,"Cutting grates are DULL, practically have to stand on it to chop through, and eventually broke after just a few uses. Not at all as advertised."
+3929,2,Everyone should read this book,"I read this book via a bookring set up by a fellow bookcrosser (www.bookcrossing.com) and had to buy my own copy. I want my mother, sister and all my female friends to read this book.The word vagina is not often spoken in my world and a certain ignorance goes along with that. This book is great for opening up the world of the vagina and show that it's not dirty, nor should it be spoken of in hushed whispers. Women need to be open and knowledgable about all parts of their bodies. And this book is a wonderful start."
+3930,2,Works for me,This drink does what I need it to do and does it fast.Taste is good and the boost I get is good.Highly recommended.
+3931,1,Worthless,I found this book to be a waste of money. One just doesn't know why some pivots have been considered and some not considered at all. In effect: Total Waste
+3932,1,What a waste of time and money!,"If I wanted to watch a documentary on drugs, I would have stayed home and watched PBS. I was bored throughout the entire movie. There was no action, in fact the movie was so quiet you could here the projector going the whole time. I want to watch a movie for entertainment value, to escape reality. This movie is in no way deserving of any awards. Do not see this...!"
+3933,2,Great Nature Shots with Good Instrumental Music,Nice work in the Pre-HighDeff days of filming the various inspirational shots one would expect from Alaska.Instrumental soundtrack from some of the Staple Performers in New-Age music.
+3934,2,"Good heat, limited space",The warmer works just fine at keeping coffee warm. The switch on the body of the unit is easy to locate (as opposed to one on the cord). The one downside is that it is too small to hold a very large mug. I guess it just holds the standard size.
+3935,2,Greatness,I Didnt Know What I Was Getting Into. I Thought this Would Be a Plain Old S**t Cd. But i Listen to F**k It and I Was Swept Way.This Is An Awsome Cd.
+3936,1,Questions TOTALLY NOT representative of the shelf exam!!,"The thing I hate about PreTest is that the Qbooks are not consistent...it's hit or miss: PreTest Emergency Med, PreTest FM = HIT, PreTest Psych, PreTest OBGYN, = MISS!! Questions are way to detailed and nit picky; I suppose such questions are good for residents, but definately not appropriate for a 3rd year medical student exam. Plus, there were way to many one line question stems...again, not representative of true Shelf questions. Lastly, there werent enough medicine questions....the Shelf is notorious for being rediculously biased towards IM...my shelf had way too many questions about post op fever, a topic which this book didnt address at all. Overall, very disappointed with this PreTest book. I recommend UWorld's OBGYN questions, or Lange Q&A."
+3937,2,A determined plea for support of the art of dance,"""Culture is under siege everywhere, it seems. . . . Brinson provides a determined, if often flawed, plea for support for the art of dance in Great Britain in the face of all-too-familiar financial woes. While much of his case rests on circumstances peculiar to Britain, his arguments are of interest to Americans facing similar challenges. . . . [His] detailed observations on British cultural life remind us that the attack on art is not peculiarly American. And [his] valiant, though flawed, attempts to defend dance remind us of the need for more persuasive evidence to sway the unconverted."" -- from my review for the Journal of Aesthetic Education, Vol. 27 (Summer 1993), pp. 115-117."
+3938,1,Was expecting more,"I bought this book on a whim without reading any reviews and found it disappointing. I'm really surprised about the rave reviews here. I kept reading hoping that the story would get better, but I found it to be pretty predictable and didn't get much closure at the end. I also felt that the narrative was super simplistic. At one point, I thought to myself ""Wait, is this for adults or was this written for middle school aged students?"". I felt like I kept reading over and over again ""I want Snow Flower to love me"", ""Being a daughter is hard"", ""The life of a woman is sad"", etc. No real depth or imagery, just a lot of dry repetitive narrative. Maybe I just don't like or appreciate this author's style, but I would not recommend this book."
+3939,1,Not worth the money...,"Although this is the ONLY parchment I use, I don't think that it is worth buying if the shipping cost is going to be more than the actual product -- that is unless you were depserate at the time like I was... :-)"
+3940,1,Caution before downloading,"The Kindle Touch version has been problematic for me. I can find no Table of Contents, and no listing for the all important abbreviation needed for ""this book."" I appreciate that the download was free, now I know why. Discouraged."
+3941,2,wonderful,"I bought this for my mother because she could not find it in any local stores. It's the same light, great-smelling powder she used in the 80's. It was reasonably priced and shipped fast."
+3942,2,A great cd from the late 80's,This has got to be one of my most favorite tapes from when I was just a young girl exploring the songs of love. And hoping for it someday while listening to these tunes. I love this cd!!
+3943,2,A good read - make your read the whole trilogy,"Celia Rees is one mf my favourite authors and I believe this book is a godd example of her talent. If you read this book you HAVE to read the next 2. The story did remind me a little of the lord of the rings, and harry potter, maybe it was just me????!!! But if you feel like buying a Celia Rees book, or are just after a good read, definately consider this!"
+3944,1,not much substantive,"Agreeing with the other low-rating reviewers: this film does not give you much more than you already know. The images are nice at the beginning, but they don't take you into any new or deeper way of thinking about the material. I'd recommend others first -- Blue Gold, for instance."
+3945,2,......................dude..................................,I aint never dun seen a game as tight as this un....its freakin awsum.the storys tight.the graphics r pimpin.the kare acters rock.and ill just sit ther fer hours playin and never gittin tired...ima rednek and i approov this review...
+3946,2,Detailed Analysis of the evolution of Arabic Language,"This is a very detailed and scientific analysis of the evolution of Arabic Language, although it may not be meant for the lay man. Kees Vertsteegh has painstakingly detailed-out the linguistic history of Arabic Language starting from its birth in the History all the way to the current state of the language in different parts of the Arabic world.One point to note though: the book uses a lot of phonetic symbols but does not provide a legend for the same.All in all, a marvelous treatise and a readable book for those interested in 'The Arabic Language'."
+3947,2,Great on the go,"This has been a great product for us. We strap it on her carrier, and swap it to the crib when we're home. Easy to use; no problems. Batteries last about 6 months with solid use."
+3948,2,Love the product but hate the itemi received,The brush itself is great. I don't think it helps too much with static but I love the metal bristles. My problem is with beauty time who I purchased from. The brush had bristles missing and the ones still there had glue all around the bottom. It's still useable but it's not what I paid for. I haven't bothered contacting the because I would spend more on return shipping then I probably spent on the brush. Go to a store and buy it if you want one.
+3949,1,Where The Red Fern Shouldn't Grow by: sAnDiEmArZu,"I didn't like this book because it was too old fashioned for me. It reminds me of the book called ""Ol' Yeller"". The main character, Billy, was a little too mushy. In every chapter he cried!! It was unbelievable!! In this book it said that he had a bad case of ""puppy love"". That's for sure! I also don't like this book because it has to do with hunting and I think that hunting is harsh and cruel."
+3950,2,Very technical genetic overview - somewhat lacking in details,"Absolutely highest quality photo illustrations: super high glossy prints. The chapters dealing with breeding has highly technical language regarding Mendelian genetic theory - might be a little advanced for anyone without a college degree in biology.A little lacking in details regarding the how-tos: How to set up a breeding environment, for example. I would have preferred more in-depth info than what was given.Nevertheless, this book is worth getting, just be prepared to supplement it with other books."
+3951,2,This book makes anyone think he/she can write a screenplay with the inner movie method...,"Wonderful intro...author clearly explains that if the readers want a more difficult route they can go with Syn Field's books, but this book will get you off and running & thinking about the task of screenwriting. For what the author intends to do, I give her 5stars.The Inner Movie Method is the start of your journey to writing a screenplay or to just understanding the movies you see better. It's concise, upbeat & ""can do"" in spirit.Accessible. Short Chapters. Exercises. Some good summaries. I like her overview of the stages of life & movie theme that concern each.A pleasure to read. Guaranteed to enhance your movie going experience.But again... this is a place to begin."
+3952,2,Great but slightly overpriced,"I ordered this product after my previous cassette adapter stopped working in my car. When I first put it in, I was thrilled to hear how clear the sound was. However, after I drove over a speed bump it started ejecting itself about every 5 seconds, so I panicked in thinking that it was suddenly incompatible with my car stereo. I then decided to push the cassette adapter further into the stereo, and that fixed the problem altogether. All things considered, this is a very decent cassette adapter with great sound quality, and I can only hope that it will outlive my last cassette adapter."
+3953,2,Excellent Set of DVD's,"I love ""I Love Lucy"" so much!!! This is my go-to series for blue days. Well worth the money."
+3954,2,"Recipes are very involved, but great book","After watching the recent movie about Julie Child, I felt compelled to get this book. It is not exactly a quick recipe guide, in fact the recipes are rather involved and challenging. I am enjoying the few items I have made from the book and hope you do to."
+3955,2,Can't ask for more at this price,"Very likable crisp and clear image - f/1.8 is more than enough for me. One thing I found weird is that when it is on manual focus, the photo does not always come out as expected. Auto focus works fine though - I guess I will just stick to AF - nothing much you can ask for for a lens this cheap."
+3956,2,"Wonderful, cats love it, healthy, great price!","This is an excellent high quality cat food at a reasonable price. While it is pricier than your average store cat food, it truly saves you money in the end. I have noticed over 3 months of use that my cats are eating less as they are more satisfied now and getting the nutrients they need. I purchase cat food literally half as often so in the end am spending less than if I was buying a poorer quality food. Also believe it or not, there is far less in the litter boxes now (no doubt due to less processed junk to eliminate and eating less quantity)so in the end I'm saving on litter as well. The best part is there is a notable difference in my cats health. All have shinier, softer coats and my 5 year old boy jack seems to be suffering less with allergies and his sensitive stomach. Definitly a wonderful buy and a great product!!! Shipped fast."
+3957,1,mediocre is being kind,"I'm sorry, but if you are going to watch this movie, you should be aware that it is a one star movie at best. The plot, the acting, is laughable. Really, you would love someone and then not recognize them? Very bizarre! I guess the morale is marrying for money is okay if you are pretty."
+3958,2,Conjuring,"A controversial, precise, intriguing, original book that intrigued me and suggested a new version for the events that shaped our recent history."
+3959,1,Brief and to the point.,"I just finished Book Four. I was so disappointed, that I went back to Amazon and read Mr. Fox's review of the book, as well as the reviews by Pawlyszyn and Tom. I agree with all three.I did not like Book Four, I skimmed through much of it, which I rarely do. I was reading this book on my Kindle, and at 90%, the book was over. I didn't find the concluding comments, entitled, ""Meanwhile, Back on the Wall,"" amusing. Mr. Martin wasted my time and lost me as a reader."
+3960,1,This is only for 32 bit systems,"I have XP Pro 64 bit Windows OS. This cam that I just received today will not operate on a 64 bit system. Error message pops up during software install stating that this is a 32 bit system device. Nowhere in the product description did I see mention that this cam would not work with my OS. Now I just wasted money on this cam and have to look for another one.So beware if you have a 64 bit system as I do, keep looking for another cam."
+3961,2,It's an AMAZING book!!,"""In the time of the butterflies"" One of the best novels I've ever read. I have always been a big fan of Julia Alvarez and I have read many of her pass novels(How the Garcia girls lost their accents, Something to declare and YO!. I honestly believe this is her best book yet."
+3962,1,Examples arent complete,"I'm halfway through this book and find it disorienting. The examples don't fully go through the steps needed for them to work. It's like the author randomly talks about things without explaining how he got there. Even though it seems to be the only book on WebObjects, I would suggest saving your 40 bucks and reading apple's online guides which have helped me WAY more."
+3963,1,Unmagical Weak Story,"This film was really boring. A kid sprouts from a couple's garden and has leaves on his legs. There is no magic or symbolism to these leaves or moral to the story. The movie pretty much goes on and on with the kid in soccer games, drawing portraits or playing musical instruments at a recital. There is really no climax or thrilling aspects to this film and thus it becomes a bore really fast. I think I might have been expecting too much from this film since Jennifer Garner is in it and it was under the Disney name. I should have passed on it nonetheless."
+3964,1,this blows,I was so excited to have my new case for my new laptop. The day after receiving it I was putting everything in it and went to close it and the zipper caught. I try to unsnag it and it broke off. Hence I will be returning it. Lame
+3965,2,Lovely Jim Shore figurine,"My Jim Shore Angel figurine is lovely and even tho it has a Christmas theme, I plan on keeping it out long after the holiday season is over.Just too cute to put away."
+3966,1,never again,"did not work regardless of the instructions for use, this product dropped the ph level to dangerous low levels and killed 5 fish"
+3967,2,song help,"does anyone have a copy of the instrumental versions of signal to noise and hands that built america? if so, please email me at ppolonskiy@yahoo.com. thanks."
+3968,2,A Good Family Film,"Not as good as some Disney films I have seen, but overall a good storyline and is suitable for all ages. I would recommend this film to anyone who celebrates Christmas and especially those with children.Even my husband said, ""that was a neat story !""after we watched it. That in and of itself is a good recommendation!"
+3969,1,Arrogant Armstong,"I have a hard time reading anything about Lance Armstong being a hero. No real man, let alone a 'hero', leaves his wife and 3 young children to pursue a life more in line with superstardom. Here is a man who when he is not on his bike is up-and-about with Sheryl Crow... You have to ask yourself, when is he fathering his children? Some battle!"
+3970,1,Hit List Gets Whacked,"I've long been a devoted fan of Block, specifically the Matt Scudder series, but I latched onto Hit Man in '98. A great new character coupled with Block's talent at dialogue. Hit List, however, is filled with so many inane asides and trivial banter that the story suffers. I couldn't help thinking that this book couild have been told in half as many pages had the reader been spared some of the sparring between Keller and Dot--Patrick Picciarelli, author, ""Blood Shot Eyes."""
+3971,1,"Thin loud metal, and the handle gets hot.","I bought this tea kettle to replace my old avocado green one when we redid the kitchen. It looked stylish, and I liked the fact that the whistle couldn't be removed. In these two respects, it it good.Here are the problems.The metal on this kettle is thin, which makes it very loud while heating up. The kettle rumbles loudly and sounds like the water is at an angry, roaring boil when it isn't even lukewarm yet, and the noise persists and just gets louder. It can be heard in the living room, even after just a few seconds on the stove.The handle on this tea kettle gets very, very hot and can't be picked up without a pot holder unless you wait for it to cool down, which isn't ideal."
+3972,2,Keeps you on the edge,"This movie keeps you thinking on what will happen next, and you are usually wrong. Most movies let you in on the end result, Due East doesn't do that at all. It was refreshing to be wrong when it comes to this movie. Very good movie!!!"
+3973,2,A really good book for children,"I first read this book when I was in the fourth grade. I still like to read it. It's about a 13 year old girl in 1776 Manhattan who is given an assingment by her father, Samuel Fraunces, to help save George Washington's life. It's nice to read about an ordinary person affecting history."
+3974,1,Uhhh...Oh Yeah! It Sucked!,"After buying Vulgar Display Of Power a couple of months ago I was shocked and annoyed buy what I heard. I can't believe all the hype Pantera has. Being a HUUUGE Metallica fan, a few of my friends at school recommended Pantera to me. I heard of them tonsa times before. Of course, the whole school hated Metallica and loved Pantera. Finally I bought Pantera's Vulger Display Of Power thinking it'd be a sure shot. The only sure thing about it is that it sucked. Phil Anselmo's annoying voice of screams, grunts, and curses ruin the whole album. Being an aspiring guitarist, I am offended by Dimebag's lack of talent and creativity. All his riffs sound like ripoffs of other metal bands. And the drumming is just terrible! Vinnie Paul must be the worst drummer around. Rex probably plays the worst basslines I've heard. Pantera has sooo much hype and popularity, but no talant at all. There are hundreds of better metal bands out there."
+3975,2,Awesome!,"I'm somewhat of a neat freak when it comes to my boat, not a big fan of digging out extra life vests (PFDs)when guest come fishing with me, so I got this to keep the spares stored away neatly."
+3976,2,"Quest for Glory, The ultimate RPG","One of Sierra's best, a game series people from every genre of gaming will enjoy. This is the second Sierra game I owned, I had the original ""So you want to be a Hero?"" The challenge of having to think to win, not just hack and slash is the key to these games, games that challenge your mind, kick your adrenaline, and frequently, tickle your funny bone, I love these games, all of them, I hope you enjoy them as much as me."
+3977,1,Hard To Fill,"The can looks and feels great. The major drawback is that it's missing a separate fill hole/cap. In order to put gas in the can, you need to remove the funnel. The wear-and-tear on the funnel looks like it could cause the funnel to break easily. No mention anywhere that you can obtain replacement funnels. Otherwise, the one handed operation of the can has a good feel although the balance with a full can is somewhat ackward."
+3978,1,she could have shared a screen credit with Queen,"I checked this album out from the public library because I loved ""It Can't Rain All the Time,"" Siberry's track on The Crow soundtrack, so much.I'm just glad I didn't buy it.Every track on the album sounds like it was written to score a poignant moment in the original Highlander movie. One might argue that the overuse of the drum machine adds a fight scene dimension, I suppose. It came out in 1990, so now I'm just hoping that she improved with age."
+3979,2,Essential Reading For Napoleon Buffs,"For readers of Napoleonic history, and those who want to get the 'feel' of the moment when Napoleon was fighting his last battle (Waterloo), one cannot think of a better source than Stendhal's ""The Charterhouse of Parma"". The book is as captivating as ""The Red and the Black"", and in both stories the most unforgettable characters are the older women in love with the main protogonists."
+3980,1,question edition dvd,"batclawns sold me a copy with poor qulity, fullscreen not widescreen like said the information , disc and labels not originals for that i like to ask to yours if exist any copy original about this movie, thanks"
+3981,1,not much on Czech horn players,"I purchased this book specifically to retrieve information on Czech horn players. It was empty of anything related to this topic, though there certainly are many biographies of other musicians from Czech regions."
+3982,1,Retraction! Company fixed CD Works Great now!,The company fixed the CD and sounds great now! Great company to work with. Very responsive. Would definitely buy from them again!Would definitely give them 5 stars but Amazons review editing system won't let me change my rating!
+3983,2,good unit with one caveat!,"The unit fits nicely in my shelf system and will hold and easily switch between 300 disks. Only one thing to note: THIS UNIT DOES NOT PLAY mp3 CD'S! Other types of files play just fine. I'm a bit surprised that in this day and age SONY would produce a player that does not play mp3 CD's, but they did! I have to decide whether I want to keep it with the luxury of storing 300 disks or get a 5-CD changer that will play mp3 CD's."
+3984,1,"Just Misery...Know Sula, No Peace...","SULA, I don't know why folks have been saying this book was hard to read, I read it in 2 days, while watching basketball play-offs! It was not difficult at all. This is the 2nd book by Morrison I've read, the other was THE BLUEST EYE. I don't like Morrison and she is not so great a writer to me. I don't understand how people reviewing this book could say it was a ""masterpiece"" or ""so meaningful to me""! It was about a dysfunctional family, hell a dysfunctional town. I don't get how this could be ""the best I've read"". Hell, it was depressing and Sula Peace had no peace at all. I really felt sorry for Nel because she befriended such a s.o.b. as Sula. I'd hate to have her as my only friend. Generation after generation was off from Eva, to Hannah, to Sula! Pick up a book that has some happiness about it instead of this.Just my 2 cents!"
+3985,1,Not all that good.,"This one would have been impossible to watch were it not for its pretty good costume and set design. It looked as though at the beginning that this was going to be a decent medieval tale of adventure, but horribly cheesy dialogue and subpar acting soon put an end to that. Sadly not even the presence of Poitier can save this movie. There's only so much a great actor can do with such a bad script, surrounded by bad actors, and forced to sport such a lame hair-doo."
+3986,2,Panasonic KX-TCA60,"A super great value for the money, if you want a top of the line bells and whistles unit then you should pick something else. I love it for the value and ease of use just plug it in and that's it, not batteries and the cord is very long which make it nice to use as well."
+3987,1,Not great.,The rules were poorly written and the game play seems random and poorly thought out. These guys had a good idea and wasted it on a bad game design. It coudl have been silly and I would have been happy - this is just a BAD GAME DESIGN.
+3988,1,"If you get this, you're out of your mind!!","This DVD set costs $107.99 and takes up a lot of shelf space. You are crazy if you buy this. There is a re-packaged version of this season which costs less and takes up a lot less shelf space. You'll save yourself $66.75 if you buy the re-packaged set. All the same content is there. So, be smart! Don't buy this. You are only going to rip yourself off. Buy the repackaged version for only $41.24."
+3989,1,Not My Type,"I have yet to read a true Grisham thriller, but I plan to in the near future. Having said that, I have no idea how this compares, but I didn't really care for it. It's cute and has a sort of slapstick humor that I couldn't get into. I felt like I was reading a teen or children's book, and I don't like feeling so patronized when I read unless I knowingly pick up a picture book ready for the simplicity of a good message--even then, I don't usually feel patronized or ""written down to"". It's simple writing and a simple plot. It's lighthearted and thus a light read. I imagine many people would enjoy it; I just couldn't get into it. :o\"
+3990,2,the ringmaster,these LP is one of my fav cds of all time these is horrarcore at its best i just wish mike e clark would come back. this jokers card has some great classics . murder go round the loons the wagon just to name a few.
+3991,1,No English subtitles for Joyeux Noel with Unbox,"No English subtitles available on this movie through Unbox.Unless you understand French and German, I wouldn't recommend purchasing this movie through Unbox.Other reviews stating there are subtitles must be referring to the DVD, and not Unbox.Unfortunately, this fact is not stated in the product description. I had to wade through Amazon's help section to discover no subtitles are available with Unbox. I also discovered there are no refunds on digital products. Lose-lose. Buyer beware."
+3992,1,Terrible product,"I retired my GE after 9 years of faithful service and bought this microwave. The price was right. $180 plus tax and it fit the space perfectly. That was in April 2010. I should have known you get what you pay for. In May 2011, it just died on me. Everything lights up, turntable turns etc .. just doesnt heat anything. In order to have it checked out, it would cost more than I paid for the microwave. The parts alone add up to more than 180. Until last month it had worked great. It basically lasted 13 months :-(. They should change LG from LIFES GOOD to LOW GRADE. Not worth the cost and aggravation. I should have read the reviews before purchasing. Too many people have the same problem with it. Buy something else or you will regret it. I know I have."
+3993,2,A big blast wind from the east !,"Since Sky Masters - when the B2 was on top of South East Asia's Sea, I found another big blast wind from the east. Brown took more serious what happen if China invades Taiwan (I am hoping it's never happen). I read Brown's thriller even more scary this time. All the ballistic missiles ready to aim Taiwan, major scales battle! Hardly to imagine. Definitely Very accurate story and Yes! another best writter from Brown.Don't ever miss this!"
+3994,1,Bad experience,"My opinion of this product was so low I returned it and am waiting for a refund.The video would not respond to a comand ""by design"".Very dissappointing."
+3995,2,Elvis and a Great collection of his movies!,"I've always enjoyed seeing Elvis movies every so often and here is a superb collection. The conversion of the movies to DVD was good and seemed without any flaws. Each movie is pressed onto it's own individual DVD. 2 DVD movies per case, 4 cases and 8 movies. The velvet outer case is a nice touch.You can't go wrong with this collection. I wish they had another version with some of his other movies. After looking over all of the movies made by Elvis I didn't really realize he was churning them out that fast! I chose this collection too, because it has been many years that I have seen ANY of these movies from this collection."
+3996,2,Great CD!!,"Love this CD, its playing constantly in my car. All her new and old songs are on this CD. Love it."
+3997,1,Not the original artists; don't be fooled like I was!,"There was no indication in the description that these songs are not by the original artists. It was only after I received the CD that I saw ""performed by Countdown"" at the bottom of front cover. I wish Amazon (and other sites) would make it clear exactly who the performers are on a ""various artists"" CD."
+3998,2,gorgeous,An absolutely amazing story. I felt so inspired and ready to take on the world after I finished the last page. I read this for the first time a couple years ago and it has continued to haunt me in the way that only the exceptional can. I highly recommend!
+3999,2,Constant Cash Flow - Thanks Wade!,"I have been using Wade Cook's rolling stock and covered call strategies for quite some time and have been generating constant cash flow. Using the advice espoused by Wade in this new and incredible book, I have been able to avoid the really bad stocks and select winners.I have also been following Wade's advice in Real Estate Money Machine to create real wealth in real estate. Also recommend Nothing Down for the 2000's by Robert Allen who I understand also endorses Wade."
+4000,2,A Joyous Christmas Album!,"This is one of the best gospel Christmas albums of all time. It is on my ""must play"" list for the holiday season.As mentioned in other reviews, this version of silent night is one of the best I have heard. Sound nothng like the original tune but is still superb. Other standouts are: The night that Christ was born, Go tell it on the mountain and the very touching ""Love Song"".But the best song on the album is hands down - Now Behold The Lamb. This song will give you goosebumps. It speaks of Jesus's sacrifice when he became the lamb of God to die for our sins. The vocals of Dalon Collins will blow your mind. He is truly gifted.This is a must have for anyone's Christmas collection."
+4001,1,poor,"This product is just awful. It arrived cracked, which really wasn't its biggest problem. The bumpers to hold the gate in place were totally inefficient, because the holes for the pumper screws were drilled too large. I returned it immediately."
+4002,2,One Awesome Book,"I highly recommend this book. I have purchased many dog books over the years, but now I finally understand what my dogs are talking about! Buy it, you won't be sorry. The pictures along with the explanations will enable you to understand canine behavior."
+4003,2,Works well.,"This ashtray works well, isn't excessively loud for what it does, and doesn't use a lot of power so batteries last a while as long as you remember to turn it off. Of course it will not eliminate the effects of indoor smoking but it will reduce them."
+4004,2,A Taste of Yesterday,"I read this book as a teenager, long ago, and it helped cement my attitudes toward distance cycling and cycling in general.As a middle aged man, it's a complete joy and vindication of those attitudes!You don't need a high dollar superbike, when a simple three speed will moe than suffice! I'm relearning this now with my vintage five speed townbike. . . .Anyway, this is a great book for all bicyclists and those who've always wondered about distance cycling."
+4005,1,This is NOT the SHELL SEEKERS,"This film bears only a passing resemblance to Rosamund Pilcher's THE SHELL SEEKERS. The director watered down the book's powerful plot to weak tea and you will barely recognize the characters. Angela Lansbury does her best but cannot help the tepid writing. The casting was almost completely off the mark - Danus is particularly badly cast. I expected a better film from the Hallmark Hall of Fame. This was so bad it took me 3 trys to get through to the end. Don't buy it. In fact, it's hardly worth renting. Reread the book instead."
+4006,2,Really works!,"Before I read this book, I was blowing up at my kids at least once a day. Just a few weeks later, that no longer happens. I'm able to monitor when I'm getting frustrated and keep in control so I don't start yelling out of the blue.This book really made me feel understood by the author. I recognized myself and the people I know in the descriptions of angry people. The biggest thing for me was that he understood how profoundly being yelled at as a child can affect you. He explains that people get angry because their needs aren't being met. So now, I check in with myself regularly to see whether I'm hungry, or tired, or frustrated, and then I try to take steps to meet those needs before I blow up.The main flaw in the book is that it doesn't provide enough detail about how to be assertive. I would have liked to see specific examples and guidelines for how to talk to other people about your needs in an effective, assertive way rather than being aggressive or too passive."
+4007,2,A Must Have,"I can keep this short. The Moon Filter is a must have for viewing of the moon through a telescope. Viewing a full moon without the filter is similiar to staring directly at a bright flashlight. But with the filter you readily see the craters, mountains, and other features. It is definitely money well spent."
+4008,1,Overrated,"Although there are bright spots, especially the opening track, the album never truly rebounds as strongly thereafter. Out of 30 songs, about 12 are really good, and should have been singled out to comprise one awesome album (USSR, Birthday, Yer Blues, Revolution...) 12 out of 30 = 40%, and that's 2 stars."
+4009,2,The BEST,"This is the best Jesus video I have ever seen in my life! It comes in two DVD's, the full length and a shorter one. The man playing Jesus was an actor on LOST. He does a truly inspired portrayal of Christ and you have no problem relating to Him."
+4010,2,Feelin Irie after this one,This book is wonderful! I read it all the time because it is very inspirational. Jah Rastafari!
+4011,1,don't do it,"the material is very tacky and will be hard to remove from the included rolling pin. and then once you get the pin off and get a decent flat piece of material, when you go to give the impression, the material will then stick to the hand or foot upon removal ruining the impression, and you have to do it all over again. it was a horrible process."
+4012,1,Should have been thrown away,"I ordered this book for a friend who is going to be laid up for awhile after some surgery. He is a history buff so I thought this would be a good read for him since we are planning a road trip into southern Oregon and northern California after he recovers from his surgery. What a disappointment. The book was published in the 1950's and probably spent most of its life in a high humidity attic or something. When I opened the package there was an immediate odor of mildew. As I thumbed through the faded pages, each page smelled the same. My wife who has a much better sense of smell than I, immediately condemned the book to the garage, where it now sits. My friend will never see that book. It probably should have been thrown away long, long ago. I'm not saying that the book wasn't interesting, it probably is, but it's a shame that it couldn't have been in better shape. My loss, lesson learned."
+4013,1,Dissapointing Book,"Dissappointingly simplistic. If you have read ANYTHING about smoking a brisket or ever made a reasably good effort, then you have surpassed the level of this book."
+4014,2,Granddaughter needed for school!,I chose this rating as it is the book that my granddaughter needed for school. She is in the culinary arts program at her high school. This book was required reading for her class. I would recommend this book for anyone taking culinary arts in high school.
+4015,1,nb! translation of 1994 Spanish original,"This is not really a ""1999"" book, in case anyone is looking for the latest from Castells--rather it offers a translation of a collection of essays published in Spanish five years ago (and written a year or two before that, judging from the references). One would think this information should be part of the bibliographic description of the title."
+4016,1,YUCK,"I have become a fast fan of Mustela products for my 3 year old who suffers from eczema. This is the first Mustella product that fell short for me. I started with bath oils, shampoo & conditioner, massage oil, and lotion; all of which smell pleasant & light if not good, and seem to work well on his skin... I bought these wipes to keep to clean his hands on the go, but the smell is obnoxious. It is so strong, and gross. I was trying to scrub the smell off my hands when I felt compelled to leave a review. Going to find another alternative."
+4017,2,Good Entertainment,"My wife and I went to see ""Ladder 49"" expecting another ""Backdraft"". ""Ladder 49"" makes that movie look like a cartoon. Most things rang true. When Phoenix's character fights his first fire it was just like what all firefighters experience. As a firefighter I noticed a few technical errors but I'm sure they happened to make the movie flow a little easier. Nothing major, like where they parked one of the engines was bit too close to the fire, and I was taught to never give your breathing apparatus to a victim (they may fight you to keep it). But, basically it was very entertaining and most of it, like I said, had the ring of truth."
+4018,2,Love this CD,"If you loved the music of the 1950s, this will be a great addition to your collection. The Fontane Sisters had some great hits. Each time I play this, it takes me back to my childhood."
+4019,2,fun and easy,fusion frenzy is a definite game for kids it'll keep them busy for hours you should consider this game
+4020,2,"Overall, a good transaction","Book showed minor signs of wear and was not ""brand new"" as described. However, fast shipping and book was in overall good quality! A good experience."
+4021,2,Twitch your nose and buy this!,How can you go wront with Elizabeth Montgomery as Samantha Stephens! The cast is amazing and I LOVE watching this when I have a tough day or to lull me to sleep. It has tons of episodes featuring all the cast members. SO GLAD this is out on DVD - I have collected each season (8 in total). I LOVE Elizabeth Montgomery in this and she makes the show so much more fun!
+4022,1,not that great,"This book was very disappointing - from the cover to the contents. The cover image you see on the info. is not really a cover, it is only an image on a small piece of paper wrapped around a potion of the actual blank cover. Then inside, the information is so general and shallow, that it is virtually useless. I wish I had saved my money for a book that actually had some academic significance."
+4023,1,extremism-r-us,"This review is meant to reinforce R.W. Rasband's: unless you're a member of the extreme right-wing of the Roman Catholic Church, this book's not for you (and not what it appears to be)."
+4024,2,Loved it,"I have read this book at least four times and love it more and more each time. If you are a believer in the afterlife, or just curious about it, it has some interesting points of view. Dead men really do tell tales."
+4025,1,Be forwarned this does not work on Vista,"I suppose it is unfair to give this a one star for not working on Vista, as it does not claim to. This program is 16 bit, which means even on Windows XP it has to use the NTVDM.exe (the virtual machine) and that can cause problems and the video will never be great.Not everyone will have problems but watch out."
+4026,1,The local library...,"I urge you not to buy this book. It seems RJ has decided to prolong WOT indefinantly. I found myself skimming most of this episode, searching for a glimpse of interest or a glimmer of plot advancement. It seems RJ has run out of ideas and decided to bore us senseless. The book focuses on Elayne and her strive to attain the crown - probably the most uninteresting part of the whole series. So, check it out at the local library but don't waste your money on it."
+4027,1,New Formula Doesn't Work as Well,"The old Grant's Ant formula containing arsenic worked very well. The new formula contains 1% Hydromethylnon, which I think that the ants are able to sense. Using the old product with arsenic the ants kept eating and taking back to the nest until the whole colony died. When I used the new formula the ants ate for a few minutes then stopped feeding and then ignored the bait."
+4028,1,No lights and music.,"Usual fun ""Bugs"" book except back cover is suppose to have ""Lights and Music"". HOWEVER, both the original and replacement copies, that I received, had dead batteries."
+4029,1,do not need for inevrter,If your mounting indoors or a area that is free of water I guess this would be okay However offering it with an inverter is ridiculas as it has to be mounted near your battery box like for us truck drivers. It is better to use a marine grade circuit breaker this way you do not have to worry about the weather
+4030,2,Survivor 3 Africa,This was an exciting season. I loved it and couldn't wait to buy more!Amazon has everything I want!
+4031,1,never received order.,ordered this product and never received it.dont know if it was the seller or amZon to blame but i feel i got ripped off. i am kind of scared to do anymore business with amazon as i cant afford to keep doing this. it has happened twice now.
+4032,1,Not good,I ordered Bewild-Natural Bamboo Beaded Curtains. What I saw advertised is not what I received. The strings of beads were about an inch apart; not close together as shown. The staff was not very informative.
+4033,1,It's a lemon,"I went through 4 of these while under warranty - the hard drive kept crashing. It's garbage. I'll never buy another ""Maxtor"" back up drive."
+4034,2,Smooth.,"If you are spending an evening with that ""special someone""....get some candles, wine and some Al Green. Al's singing is so damn smooth......"
+4035,2,Amazon Kindle2 --- Love it,"I did not buy the first kindle,it was nice but,I was looking for more.When the kindle 2 came out I read everything about it. I talked to peoplewho had bought one. I wanted to make sure that it was a superior product.also,I wanted to see if the book downloads were easy.With arthritis in my hands,it had to be easy to hold.After checking out the kindle 2,I guess you can say from ""top to bottom"".I was impressed. So I took the leap -- I ordered my kindle 2.the kindle 2 is now one of the most important items I carry in my purse.everywhere I go, there is always time to read,also if my eyes get tired,it will read to me,so I can find out the ending of the book I'm reading.So be assured that Amazon Kindle 2 is the best. also,Amazon shipped it-fast.I am going to also recommend it as a wonderful gift.Thanks Amazon,Ms.Paula"
+4036,1,Nice look and feel. Horrible performance.,"Although the Bluetooth version of the optical pilot (now discontinued) had the same problems with battery life, it tracked much smoother than this RF version.When my Bluetooth model stopped working recently (after about two years) I replaced it with this. I regret that decision, as I am now looking for another replacement, capable of precision control."
+4037,1,cheated,"Dear sir, madam,Indeed I purchased this cd, thinking it would be good. Unfortunately I feel very much cheated because it holds no R.O. nor L.R. sung music. To me they are bad imitations. I already mentioned this to you at Amazon when I had to rate this product and so far I did not receive any answer. Once again, It was only a couple of dollars buy but I would have appreciated any suggestion from you as what to do with this cd."
+4038,1,Sentimental Avant,"With thesaurus in left hand and rhyming dictionary in right, TH's tin lyrics combine the mordant whelp of teenager's diary with 90 year old Dada techniques--collage, juxtaposition, idiomatic tagging--with none of the boulevardier charm. Most of the book is just dross, harmless and forgettable--what rankles is the author's highfallutin' attitude--he thinks we skipped that Experimental Poetry class."
+4039,2,Jeffrey Osborne - Stay With Me Tonight - Fantastic Osborne CD,"This album brings back lot of memories for me. It was great in 1983!, and even better today. There is not a dud on this entire 'album' ;-). Don't you get so mad. We're going all the way. Stay with Me tonight. Awesome."
+4040,2,His First Album,"I bought this CD recently. It was issued in 1972 and it is the first Jackson Browne CD I've owned. (I'm a bit slow in getting turned on to ""new"" artists.) I can't say that Browne blows me away, but I like the CD well enough to order his second and third CDs and continue on my journey to discover the range of his music.There's a mellow, laid back sound here with intelligent lyrics -- a bit too much piano perhaps and not enough guitar, a bit less grit that I might have liked but a pleasant soft-rock sound. None of the songs will rank as all-time favorites of mine, but all of them are good. Browne seems to have captured the essence of a good CD: songs that sound like they belong together with no clunkers that destroy the mood of the album. That's no small achievement.Smallchief"
+4041,2,Daisy rock debutante butterfly guitar,It was delivered very fast esp around Xmas . The guitar is beautiful perfect for any Lil girl (wish the amp came w it tho ).. The design n colour looks exact as pictured
+4042,2,Dead to the World,"The attraction of the southern vampire series for me, (and the reason I have recommended it to several others) is the relationship between Bill and Sookie. In Dead to the World and Club Dead Bill was hardly even mentioned. While Dead to the World was entertaining, it was just not the same without Bill and Sookie being together. I do not know if I will continue reading this series if that relationship does not resume. You can not just leave out such a main character like Bill and continue the story. The chemistry between Bill and Sookie was what first got me hooked on this series. Charlaine Harris, what is wrong with you??? Bill needs to be reintroduced into this series or it will die. The readers want that excitment back that was created by the relationship of Bill and Sookie. BRING BILL BACK. I honestly do not think I will continue reading this series if it continues on the path it is now."
+4043,2,Rock n Phonics& Reading,Start your child out early to read. learning school from home. Having fun while Leaning & it's also good for children who love music singing and dancing.
+4044,2,"How to raise money-smart, finance-wise children","In Family Finance, Ann Douglas and Elizabeth Lewin have capably collaborated to offer n essential, practical, ""reader friendly"" instructional manual on all aspects of managing personal finances. Readers will learn how to keep their spending under control, how to start a fund to secure their family's future; how to plan for a child's educational expenses; how to maximize retirement investments; even how to raise money-smart, finance-wise children. The authors draw upon their own extensive experience and expertise in addition to the input and experiences of fifty parents to show even the most novice financial manager how to take control of their money, their credit, their future plans and their present lives."
+4045,1,Diatomaceous Earth,"I spread this powder(diatomaceous earth) over the surfaces where roaches run, like the kitchen table, gas range, sink and also on the floor. I do it every night, and, according to the instructions, the roaches should die out or just leave the premises. But the problem is that the roaches never read the instructions, or may be they deliberately refuse to follow them, but anyway, they feel great and run all over the kitchen even better than ever. Tnank you, AF.Diatomaceous Earth, 1 lb."
+4046,2,know your battery,"i purchased the equus battery and charging monitor for my car,but after installing and using it for a few months.i ordered 2 more one for my truck and an extra one.there great,you will never get caught with a dead battery using this product,i know,texas heat is a real battery killer.this is a great product that anyone can afford."
+4047,1,Not Wodehouse. Not even close.,"I echo those who thought this book an idiotically poor excuse for British humor. Somthing has to be ""humor"" before it can be ""British humor"".The fundamental difference between P.G. Wodehouse and Alexander McCall Smith is that Wodehouse is FUNNY. This book is not funny. Nor is it interesting, insightful, or otherwise worth your time.Much of Wodehouse is now in the public domain. Choose real laughs for free instead of paying for what might as well be blank pages."
+4048,2,Fueled to perfection,"Anyone who has heard Fuel's first album ""Sunburn"" probably won't be able to tell the difference between that album and this one. But that is not neccesarily a bad thing. From the beginning, they had a strong, distinctive sound that drew me to them to begin with. It is nice to see that not every band out there is trying to reinvent themselves. They stuck with their sound and it turned out to be a good thing. Enjoy."
+4049,1,Riped in 2 setups,I put the tent up for the second time and the slots riped where the poles go in. So I would say this is a horrible tent.
+4050,2,Homefirst is Awesome!!,"I haven't actually read this book, but I had a home birth through Doctor Eisenstein's ""Homefirst"". It was totally awesome! Yes there is medical equipment there just in case, but unlike how some of the other reviewer assume, it is nothing like the hospital. I never even saw any of the instruments except for the battery powered doppler,the scale that is used to weigh the baby, and the IV that I had to have (see below). You take all of it home in a sealed box (couldn't weigh more than 10 lbs) a month before your due date. That's it.Yes, midwives are a good choice also, but personally, I felt more comfortable knowing that just in case, there was a doctor there. I had to be on IV antibiotics during the birth because I tested positive for Group Strep B bacteria (1 in 5 women do). I'm not sure if I could have even done a homebirth with a midwife because of that.Anyway, don't knock physician attended home births unless you know what you are talking about."
+4051,1,Only has a few good songs,The CD is ok. You may be better off just grabbing the hit song off I-Tunes. This is not a CD you will listen to more than once or twice.
+4052,1,Way too long,"This album could have been a classic if Billy Corgan had reigned it in to 40 - 50 minutes, instead of the 73 minute drone here. There are moments of real beauty and great atmosphere, but by the end of it I just wanted it to stop. Please, make it stop!I've heard that their next album is going to be another double disk like ""Mellon Collie."" Doesn't this guy ever shut up?"
+4053,1,what happened?,"I love In Flames...or shall i say i used to. The melodic leads and solo's with Anders death vocals are pretty much gone now. How can anyone consider this death metal. It sounds like Linkin Park, Korn, and Disturbed with a swedish twist.Are they going to add a little rap in the mix next? It really makes me mad. They may have made many new fans with this change..but have lost many. ""We can't write the same song over and over again"" says Anders..well you don't have too. You haven't got to cut the ingredients that made the band good either. This album will not be in my cd case...and all the mp3s are being deleted off my computer. I can't beleive this! (For now i will pop in my the some Sinergy albums.) I still respect Anders and the guys i guess, but i'm very dissapointed. I just hope the rest of the metal underground doesn't follow in their footsteps."
+4054,2,Perfect for a beginner,"I'm about as beginner as they come, both to Pilates and to exercise. This set is exactly what I was looking for. The inflexible dvd is for people who are really inflexible. If you can almost touch your toes, you are flexible. It's been great for me. The modifications and the bonus section of yoga (also designed for really inflexible people), are letting me benefit from the exercise. After a few weeks working with the inflexible dvd, I tried a couple routines in the easiest section of the weight loss one. I could do them and like them too. If you don't know pilates, take the time to watch the track that teaches you the poses for each level. The sculpt and tone dvd is really different. I like the legs and glutes routines and as a total newbie I feel it when I'm done."
+4055,2,A Life Saver!,"This is my favorite baby item! My six-week old daughter absolutely loves this mobile. It has auto shut-off after 15 minutes which is enough time for her to fall off to sleep, or if I need a few minutes to do chores this will keep her entertained. Whenever she is fussy we stand in front of the mobile and it soothes her. When I lay her down to change her diaper I turn it on and shee coos and smiles. It does make some ""creaking"" sounds in addition to the music but it doesn't seem to bother my daughter at all. Keep extra batteries on hand because you will be using this mobile a lot!! GREAT product!"
+4056,2,Thought provoking,"This book contains a point of view that many businessmen dismiss, or don't even consider. It teaches business in a simple way and portrays it in a way that IS common sense. It has helped me to think about the big picture of business and consider why corporations fail and succeed. I would recommend this book to anyone because it is understandable and simple, yet thought provoking and complex."
+4057,2,addressing wrongs without retaliation,This is a very good book written by the son of a woman murdered while trying to escape to freedom with her children from a corrupt government. He wrote about it as an adult investigating what happened and including his memories. He is forgiving as his mother was desiring to do as she would have wished with no retaliating to those who had part in persecuting her.
+4058,2,Mosin Nagant Synth. Stock,4 out of 5 Stars. I definitely recomend this product. Had to do some minor shaving inside the stock to properly seat the receiver. I'm the only person I've heard of to have to do that.
+4059,1,Last Emperor Has No Clothes.,"Too Bad... What a shabby dressing technically given to this 1987 first class world ranking film.If it was shot in 70 mm this means the resolution, sharpness and color should be as smashingas it was in the theater. AND production standards at the time long before 1987 would have separatedthe different audio sources especially the rich Sakamoto score hence the ability to use surround soundbut IN REALITY the video is a bumpy ride; Grainy and color faded. No NOT with all that rich camera workpossible. The audio is the original TWO CHANNEL stereo. This was a sweeper at the Oscars and International venture. Why was it slapped directly to Blu Ray From shoddy transfer? ... give up? Gotta be money.TOTALLY Disappointing and a Shame.Ray Blue"
+4060,2,Leaving Pico,"Only because I was raised there and grew up in that end of town I knew the people he was referring to (even though names were changed) I knew his family. I maybe wrong, but I don't think it would have held the attention of another reader for long..It was a great time and town to be raised in and the way he wrote about the people caring and life style was ""right on"" It was an era of time that I was grateful to grow up in. Family was everything....and neighbors were extended family. That's the way it was....We are of the same ethnic back ground, for me it was a step back in time that no longer exists there. It brought back many memories. Thanks for letting me express myself."
+4061,2,Viking flash!,I have used this card for several months with good results. It was used to take pictures on a recent vacation and it proved very valuable!
+4062,1,"Old product, beware!","I bought this thinking I was getting a current product. Wrong. The software for reading CDs that it comes with won't read from my CD-R. It says it doesn't support Mac OS X (only 8.6 or 9.1). The web sites it takes you to have copyright dates of 2001. ... I think I'm going to have to return this, which is too bad, because it seems like a good jogging companion (you wouldn't want this otherwise, no radio, hard to read and operate except for the most basic functions without squinting at the thing)."
+4063,2,A grand Masterpiece; a fantastic work of sheer genius,"This book is, without a doubt, the greatest book I have ever read, and possibly one of the greatest books ever written. I picked this book out of the trashcan one day, since my high school's English department had decided not to teach this book anymore. I absolutely could not put this book down, and finished it in one day. Childhood's End is like a cabbage, intricately folded with one layer upon another, each unfolding layer of the story more fantastic and amazing than the last, until the final resolution, which will blow you away. Clarke is undoubtedly a master craftsman working in his natural element. His boundless imagination is coupled with his expert craftsmanship to create fantastic imagery and mind-boggling philosophy. This is a life-changing book, which I recommend heartily to everyone."
+4064,1,Poor Copy-editing,"While this is a great true story, I cannot recommend this Kindle edition, which is wrought with typographical errors and seems to have not been copy-edited for layout. I've returned mine, and I'm hoping a cleaner Kindle copy becomes available."
+4065,2,A wonderful book,"I read this book in late 2002 when people were always asking me why I hunted and why I liked it so much. It was very helpful to hear someone else put into words what I felt but couldn't articulate.This book clearly spells out the dangerous agenda of animal rights groups, how they exist merely to perpetuate themselves and how little they actually do for wildlife conservation. He does this without personal attacks or bias, but with statistical facts, and personal examples. This book is very well-written despite what some people have posted hear.There is also a spiritual side to the book that honors animals and nature like I've never heared from an anti-hunter. This author truly lives in nature and loves nature, like all hunters do."
+4066,2,GREAT LITTER BOX AND GREAT PRICE,"This litter box is great, especially for the price. The only downfall is the door always falls off whenever I clean the litter. My cat has no problem using it. We never had a covered litter box for him before so I was not sure how he would be about it but he loves it too! The litter tray is nice and deep too."
+4067,1,Hasbro's CD is sooooo much better,"I received a gift card from my son and so I started looking for a scrabble game that I wanted to work better with my Windows XP. So I found the Scrabble Online from Atari. I even chose the BRAND NEW, instead of USED. I received the box yesterday, 10/2/06, promptly installed it and played most of the afternoon, trying to get used to it. The game was very unforgiving, and I could not find a way to change the default options. It would also stop and I have to click the annoying notice in front of me so I can take my turn. My complaints are many because I found the game not enjoyable.Today I am trying to find out how to return it - who cares for this. My seller has an error on his/her email and my Comcast server won't send it.Lesson Learned."
+4068,2,Love the convenience,"We used the diaper genie with our first son and will use it with the one we are expecting. I like the fact that I can walk into the nursery without being overran by diaper stink. We live in a 2 story so it's nice to be able to throw away the diaper upstairs instead running up and down steps. It can get a little expensive. However, with the amount of diapers we changed in the first few months, it saved me a lot of time and energy."
+4069,2,what's with the answering machine?,"This is beautiful. With her beautiful voice and edgy tempo, Mary J. puts across a love song like no other. ""Sweet Thing"" and ""You Remind Me"" are exquisite -- like Anita Baker if she had grown up in a tougher neighborhood. But I have to take away a star for the goofy answering machine message interludes on here -- distracting, annoying, & not particularly funny. I'm not sure what she was trying to do with that. So, I'd use this to make mix tapes out of so I can edit that out. That's a great thing about CDs -- you can just hit ""skip!"""
+4070,2,SOME OF THE BEST NEW SOLO PIANO MUSIC AROUND,"Solo acoustic pianist Mary Martin Stockdale is inspired to compose by three things -- nature, The West and her philosophies of life. Her third album, TIMELESS, contains these themes in tunes such as ""Willows by the Stream,"" ""Spider's Web,"" ""Bluebird Waltz,"" ""Smoke in the Valley"" and ""Runnin' Fence,"" each of which also stand as metaphors for aspects of life. One of the most-played solo acoustic pianists on radio, Mary lives out in the country in the Colorado mountains and uses the world around her for inspiration. She writes strong melodies, plays with absolute confidence, and is not afraid to use every note on the piano. If you already have enough albums by George Winston and David Lanz in your collection, try one of Stockdale's."
+4071,2,NOTES FOR THE COLLECTOR OF MALE EROTICA,"Another excellent photobook in the Euros series. Black and white photography of young men taken during the period of 1970-1980 in both Sicily and Puerto Rico, wonderful photos of real people instead of self-conscious models. The end notes by Don H. Mader help to put the photos in perspective and will give you a deeper appreciation of them. Nothing hardcore here, just superb photography. If you are a serious collector of male photography and feel like your drowning in a sea of the pornographic and the pretentious, DiLeo is a breath of fresh air. Highly recommended."
+4072,2,Awesome Tilt Wall Mount SUPERB FAST SHIPPING!!!!,"awesome mount easy to install, operate, just set it and forget it.The shipping from this company was hands down blazing fast."
+4073,1,The Crow [Blu ray - Digital] is what was advertised; there is NO digital copy.,"This rating isn't for the movie at all, it's for the marketing of this product. I was led to believe I was ordering a Blu-ray and Digital copy. It is just the Blu-ray, which I would not have ordered if it didn't have the digital copy included."
+4074,1,Horrible Tuner,"I take guitar lessons and between lessons I'll use this to tune my electric guitar, When I go to my lesson my instructor has to completely retune my guitar because it takes it so out of tune. It's a horrible tuner! I had my high E string replaced and each time I try to tune it it trys to tune it as a B. It's bad."
+4075,1,"Norma Jean was ehhh, this is terrible","Contrary to popular belief Norma Jean's Bless The Martyr and Kiss The Child is not a good album. I won't get into reasons why just read my review of that album. But also it had stand out moments. That is what makes this cd even worse. It is uncoordinated, mindless noise and a huge disappointment for those who like Norma Jean's former singer. Since when is that ""guitar is too close to amp which has its volume knob too high"" feedback cool. Those of you who enjoy playing guitar with high gain distortion understand what I'm talking about. Most artists try to edit that sound out when their in the studio because IT GETS ANNOYING. So please if you with to avoid mindless noise and annoying repetition, don't buy this album. Instead buy Hopesfall- The Satellite Years, Anything by The Agony Scene or Zao- Where Blood And Fire Bring Rest"
+4076,2,AWESOME GAME TOTALY LOVE IT!!!,This game is awesome and deserves more than five out of five stars!!!!
+4077,2,An Invaluable Find,"I teach a course on the history of Witchcraft at a local esoteric shop, and this book was invaluable to my research. Wilmhurst assumes that the reader already has some background in Masonry, so I don't recommend this as a first-read to anyone just beginning to learn about either Masonry or the Mysteries. However, for any serious student of the occult, mysticism, magick, Witchcraft, Masonry or the Mystery traditions, this book is an excellent find. All of the bits and pieces of information I've picked up over the years concerning Masonry make a great deal more sense now.Concerning Wilmhurst's writing style: on a few occasions I had to go back and re-read a passage to catch the meaning, but didn't find the author's language problematic, as some reviewers have complained. However, this book is adapted from a series of lectures, so I will forewarn that it can be repetitive. Overall, I found that the content of the author's material far outweighed the somewhat unfamiliar writing style."
+4078,2,So Bonus Jonas!,"The Jonas Brothers are truly going places. With their sophomore album debuting at #5 on the charts, they seriously have created a great fan base. Their latest release ""Jonas Brothers: Bonus Jonas Edition"" is amazing. I love ""S.O.S."", and of course Nick's ""Hello Beautiful,"" he has an amazing vocals, and so does the rest of the band. But back to the product, great for Jonas Brothers fans. Because it includes tons of music videos like ""S.O.S.,"" of course, ""Hold On,"" and more. You'll never want to stop listening and watching this new release. And for parents who have Jonas fans, make sure to get this for your kids, I'm 100% positive they'll LOVE IT!!!!!! For more information on the Jonas Brothers, news, tour dates, photos, and more: Check out www.jonasbrothers.com"
+4079,2,exact,"This product is the favorite of my cat. She looks for it every morning,won't let me alone till she gets it."
+4080,1,Did not work!,I purchased this so I could improve the signal I received on a new AM radio. I tryed it on several radios and it did not improve the signal one bit. I did return the item and was promply given a refund.
+4081,2,Well done,".... Apparently, you know nothing about good quality material. Avril has an amazing instrument and is a wonderful songwriter as well. It is so amazing to me that she is so young. Her voice sounds as though she has had some voice lessons, or has sung in a choir and told about technique sometime in her life. Also, I think her look and views are a great role model for girls her age and younger. She is a real person and has not been sucked into the Hollywood mold most pop stars demonstrate these days. Go Avril!"
+4082,1,Konica Minolta is leaving the camera business,"People, BEWARE of buying high tech items from a company that just declared it's going out of business. You will be left holding the bag if anything goes wrong. Paper specs are worthless if there is no support. Further, BEFORE a company finally gurgles its last, it's typical for quality control to fall through the floor.I'm deeply shocked Amazon.com is not being more forthright. You are buying leftovers from a failed business. BE CAREFUL. Check out search engines for news. Until some sort of reliable user support is created, this is an orphan product."
+4083,2,About that search engine . . .,"Both variety and quality of the images are excellent, and the Export Wizard makes it very easy to use them. The search engine, however, can only be described as ""primitive,"" and you will need time and patience to find what you're looking for. I used the keyword ""girl"" as a test and got both appropriate images and others that left me scratching my head - many pics of soldiers in battle among them. As I scroll through search results, I've taken to copying good, but unrelated, images to a document in case I can't find them again! Overall, very good but could be great with a better search engine."
+4084,1,so disappointing....,"Not too much to say about it, as everything has already been stated by other reviewers. Just wanted to cast my vote to try and knock down this book's undeserved 3.5 star rating."
+4085,1,Not good,"I attended a lecture of Mr. McCauley at the London School of Economics (fancy name but rotting buildings). He really has no understanding of the country I was born in , the Soviet Union, or Russia today . I made the error of believing he might know more about Afghanistan. I was wrong"
+4086,1,Does not work for most of our computers,"This converter did not work for most of our Intel computers (Xeon E7330 @ 2.40GHz ""Tigerton"", linux 2.6.24).On the other hand, the converter did work on a few Intel computers (Xeon E7330 @ 2.40GHz ""Tigerton"", linux 2.6.26) through a PS2 KVM switch.The problem was in the converter because, we have a different converter with does make everything work when the different converter is in the same place."
+4087,1,Stay Away!!,"While the product probably worked great when new, the retailer warehousedeals that sells ""refurbished products"" never took the time to ensure it's proper functioning. The battery would not hold more then a 2 minute charge."
+4088,1,Follow Focus Broke on first shoot....rig is nice,"I purchased this rig with Follow Focus to do some small films , The rig feels nice enough , Although on the very first shoot I did with this product the Follow Focus main gear fell off..I could push it back in place , it just kept falling out during the shoot...that I am not happy about....I needed the rig and could not afford the down time.The seller did say I could return it for a new one or a refund , although I had jobs planned and could not take the time to wait days and days to get the return sent and wait for a new one to show up...I had to glue the gear back in place , seems to work ok now just wish I didnt have to do that to a brand new item...I would have sent it back for full refund if I had time too...All in all , Rig feels decent , When working Follow Focus is decent as well...when working properly."
+4089,1,Stinky wipes,"I bought this product mainly because my daughter has fair, sensitive skin, which most facial wipes cause her minor irritation. This product worked very well as far as thoroughly cleaning her face, hands etc. It did not irritate her skin at all...the problem, the one and only problem, is the fragrance, if you can call it that. It stinks so bad, I did not want to go near her after I wiped her down...I had to give her a bath, it was so bad."
+4090,1,a huge disappointment,"My son picked this item out, apparently the description was very impressive! Because the product that arrived sure was not!!"
+4091,2,Imzadi,"This is the best Star Trek book I've read to date. True to the series and characters. The story, plot and effective writing style make this a can't put down book. I wanted it to go on forever!"
+4092,2,"Very, very good","Like Ivory Soap, 99.999% of the time an artist produces an album that rehashes their previous work and that of their colleagues. In otherwords, it's the same *stuff* different day. Not Liquid Swords. Perhaps the best rap album of the decade, this album hits hard and its quality is consistent throughout.My advice: If you enjoy ""real"" rap...BUY this album."
+4093,2,"National Geographic. Loved it as a kid, still do.","I'm amazed that National Geographic maintains its high quality in articles and photography, which is displayed on good paper. Whenever their magazine is in my mailbox, I sit down immediately to read it."
+4094,2,Echo Five Papa,riveting and honest. Well worth the time for all who are interested in how it was in the Nam. I enjoyed it from the first page to the last page.
+4095,2,This was a really good book that was very enjoyable!!,This excellent book was one of the novels that we had to read in reading class. Irene Hunt has a beautiful writing style that makes the book easy to read. The characters were so real that you really got to feel like you knew them. The book dealed with real life issues and problems. I would reccomend this book to anyone my age because they can relate very well to it. You will get so into this book that you'll be upset when it's over!!!
+4096,1,Phony as a $3 bill and nasty,"I purchased this liquid for my wife who suffers terribly with pain as described - not only did this con artist get money for the first order they kept shipping the product and billing. Stopped them after 3 orders to cease, wish there was some way to tell others about this phony product or stop them from advertising. Besides that my multiple contacts with their 'customer service' was with the most nasty humans I have ever spoken to' Isn't there some protection for consumers?"
+4097,2,Unforgettable,"I won't rate a book until after I finish it and a few weeks have gone by. For me, a truly great book is one that seeps back into your mind even after you've moved onto the next one. This is such a book.Not only is this an engaging tale (beware of reading this on your vacation, or you could miss the whole thing), but the book makes you consider such philosophical questions like:- Are zoos a good idea? Who benefits from them?- Which religion is right? Can they all be right, or does one exclude the others?- What separates humans from animals?- What makes life worth living?A book that keeps my nose faithfully between its pages while being read, and makes my mind dwell weeks later, is a book I'd recommend to anyone. One of the most engaging I've read in a long, long time."
+4098,2,Great chain tensioner,"This chain tensioner is a wonderful product. It keeps the rear wheel from moving forward. Because of that,your chain tension will stay tensioned for areally long time. The onlycon i can think of is that there was no instruction manual included. Installation was easy but i structions still would have been nice. Other than that, great product."
+4099,1,This dvd player has 5 months life.,"I bought this dvd player 5 months back. I was happy i could convert to 720p and 1080i. I was good until couple of days back, it started switching off itself and on. While playing, it switches off and comes back on. This player comes with 3 month labor, 1 year parts. Now if i need to fix it, it costs about 70$. I recommend not to buy this DVD player"
+4100,1,Not Worth It,"Do not waste your time. In spite of the cast, this movie is a whopping dud. Meandering and unfulfiling. A shame. I'd give it zero stars, but the system won't let me."
+4101,2,robh5200,"A terrific movie bringing to life a legendry hero that has been revitalised using modern technology (colour at last!)to bring it into the 21st Century, but without the ""gatchetry"" that so many films use these days to ensure their success.This movie allows ""todays generation"" to no only experience a movie that the ""baby boomers"" enjoyed but also brings back to life an era of folk legend that may well have otherwise been all but forgotten.A classic movie not to be missed and highly recommended to all."
+4102,2,Pedestal People,"I have always imagined a dinner party with only the list of ""pedestal people"" in my life attending. David Gessner would be on that list. While reading this amazing book, I felt like I had walked silently behind David and John Hay on the Cape that is also so close to my heart. What an amazing gift of writing from Gessner."
+4103,2,Interesting examples of mathematical art.,"The author used a Fortran program to draw a set of lattice patterns that fall into seventeen categories. Each category corresponds to one of the seventeen two-dimensional space groups. The full-page design is created by first constructing a tile. An elementary set of line segments and arcs is taken and then manipulated using a space group. After a tile is created, it is repeated to fill the page.There are forty-four different designs on these pages and some are quite striking. As someone who has read books on mathematical art across cultures, I recognized some of the patterns. Not exactly, but to a high degree of accuracy. These designs are well worth looking at if you are interested in finding patterns for artwork, quilts or any other visual effect."
+4104,1,Intro to Research,"Required textbook -- while it's a fairly easy read, there are SO MANY mistakes in the book, especially in the charts and graphs. I spent hours trying to make sense of one table, asking other people to work the problems, and everyone came up with the same answer...which was different from the book. The professor worked through the problem and realized the textbook was incorrect. That was the first of many issues that were discovered over the course of the semester. If you have to have this edition (or even future editions) be careful with the numbers!"
+4105,2,just a really fun album!,This relatively unknown title is a truelly a great JAM session. Pick this one up and enjoy some Basie in a trully unique/relaxed setting. This CD swings so hard you will not be able to sit still when listening to it. I've had this CD for several years now and still enjoy it immensely each time I listen to it. ...seems to be one of 12-20 jazz CDs that ALWAYS gets packed up when going on a trip
+4106,1,That Don't Impress Me Much,"I beg you, if you are a country fan do not buy this album. It is pure blasphemy to the entire history of country music. And if you are a pop fan who's looking for the songs you heard on the radio, you won't find them here. Everything Shania puts out to pop radio has been remixed and altered endlessly. Her desperate attempts for crossover appeal are humiliating and pathetic."
+4107,1,Spartan: Total Warrior,"Spartan: Total WarriorI live in Norway, and unfortunately this game does not work on a norwegian PS2 - I did not know there could be any problem buying PS2 games from the US."
+4108,1,Do not buy this item - It is not well designed.,"This pen is very interesting, it has a great concept but it performs rather bad. The other reviewers were right in saying that this product fails in every aspect, its a great technical feat but it does not deliver. Some problems I found was when I was trying to scan a book, this becomes very difficult as you have to hold the book down, while holding the DocuPen hard against the book. Towards the middle the Docupen actually wrinkles the page. Now dont get me wrong, it works great if you were scanning a single page, but it fails for books. Its also rather cheaply made, I think the next generation of these items will be much better. A button to ""scan"" would have been better as well."
+4109,1,A Bubble product,"Dent is so out of reality here. This book is a waste of money, time.He does not have any grasp of how the markets work.This is one of the worst books I've ever read if not the worst.Stay away from it and the hype that surounds it."
+4110,2,OS2,"Great product! Everything it said it would live up to.Shipping was as said, also! Couldn't ask for more."
+4111,1,Buyer beware of Syracuse Language products,"This review deals not so much with this CD-ROM as with its producer, Syracuse Language. I have two Syracuse Language CD-ROMs, for French and Italian, purchased a couple of years ago. I rated them as fair, until we upgraded to Windows XP. We were not surprised when the CDs no longer worked, but we were surprised at Syracuse's attitude when we called them about upgrades. We were told that they were no longer making language CD-ROMS (a statement that this listing on amazon would tend to belie) and that no upgrades or any other assistance were available to us. No apologies for the inconvenience, no thanks for our past business. I am not the most technical, computer savvy person around but, to me, this is like buying a book and then having the ink disappear after two years.In short, I would caution against investing in Syracuse Language products (which also go by ""Knowledge Adventure"" and ""Sierra"") as the support for products is not there."
+4112,1,NO FLEECE BLANKET,"This was described as a nice sleep system to put over your airbed, with sheet material inside, a fleece blanket inside, and then a comforter on top that all zips together. Just what I needed for my truck camper RV, I thought!Well, it is a very (VERY) lightweight queensize sleeping bag, no fleece blanket in sight. My husband and I tried it in our 54 degree bedroom and were cold. I would say it's for a nice spring night indoors, and would be great as extra bedding used like that. But you would have to wash the whole sleeping bag after guests leave.It does fit well on the top of a queen size bed, and my husband, who is 6'4"" did fit in the sleeping bag easily, which is great.I just want my fleece blanket, then it would work great for us. I could throw a big down comforter over the whole works when it is cold.This is made by the same company that makes swiss army knives. The zippers appear well made."
+4113,1,Unsatisfactory,"My personal opinion I would not order anything from groundhigher. I ordered the movie, The Lion King for my 7 yr. old grandson. I was told I would recieve it by 4/21/09..Well it is now 5/04/09 and I have not received it as yet..I have sent one email to that person and no response..I just sent another one tonite. Doubt if I get a response on that one either..Very disappointed and I was gonna rate this a one but it came up 2 stars and not even worth that."
+4114,2,Changed My Life,"This book changed my life. I felt so discouraged by my constant rollercoaster with food. I needed to understand that my food issues were not about getting skinny or achieving some arbitrary number. Instead, my food issues were about my willingness to go to food, rather than God. Finally, I am starting to look to God to fill whatever needs I have, instead of food!"
+4115,1,"For a 101 book, it is WAAAAAAY off.","1. Not all Dominants and/or tops are male2. Not all submissives and/or bottoms are female3. If you title your book 101 you need to cover all the 101 basics and make it clear to the reader that there is a LOT more to BDSM than just tying up your bottom/sub to have sex with ""her""4. It took me three tries to get through reading this book because I found his view point to be so utterly frustrating, close-minded and male-dom centric.5. Because of books titled like this that people read for the first time with good intentions not knowing any better many of us in the community spend YEARS trying to undo the damage, or just avoiding schmucks that books like this have given the wrong impression to.6. Let me repeat point #2 in a different way as many new male doms reading this book seem to be confused. NOT ALL WOMEN ARE SUBMISSIVE OR YOUR BOTTOM. Do NOT try to top us because you think it is our gender role."
+4116,2,What a great movie...,"This movie was just fantastic, hands down. Didn't expect much, but I was laughing through out the whole movie. Bill Nighy is great as quentin and not to mention philip seymour hoffman."
+4117,1,Very disapointing. Did not expect the condensed version.,I expected to get the book including all the Ansel Adams photos. Very few were included and those were postage stamp size.
+4118,2,good for kids,"Kids learn quickly, purchased for grandkids to learn to play and it is easy for them to follow and practice"
+4119,2,DaVinci Crib,"Received in a timely manner. Instructions were great and easily followed. Assembled in about 1 1/2 hrs. Crib was beautiful, and I know my grand-daughter will love it. Thanks"
+4120,2,"More than just ""In The Mood""","While Mr. Fields is best known for his fast paced rendition of ""In The Mood"", and old Glenn Miller tune, he actually has a lot more to offer! This Collectables Label CD presents the title song plus 15 more great numbers. The sound on this disc is mostly excellent quality mono recordings, with only ""In The Mood"" and ""Fallin'"" sounding a little rough, the latter being a disc drop I believe, although still great. Great to have for any fan of Ernie Fields or any oldies fan in general!"
+4121,1,A throwaway item,"My dentist highly recommended this toothbrush to massage my gums. It took some getting used to because of the high-speed vibrations that tickle the gums. My teeth felt smooth after use, just like getting a cleaning at the dentist's office.I set it aside after a year or two. Recently I decided to use it again after several years. It would not take a charge. I decided the batteries might need replacement and found a site on the Internet that explained how to dismantle the unit and replace the batteries. This unit is not designed for home or factory service. The parts and the batteries are anchored in epoxy at the factory. Considering that nickel-cadmium batteries last less than four or five years, this unit is fairly expensive , especially at the price I paid.Changing the batteries is a time consuming effort. Even after finishing the job, the toothbrush will not work. It is an expensive throwaway."
+4122,1,Disappointing,"I was quite disappointed in this movie. Nicholson and Kinnear were okay. But generally, the acting was clumsy (that Helen Hunt beat out Judy Dench in ""Mrs. Brown"" for the best actress Oscar makes me sick), the writing was really clumsy, and the direction was really REALLY clumsy. You could almost feel the camera creak on its tripod during panning shots! There is some clever stuff in it. But overall, it was a half-baked, clunky film."
+4123,1,false Advertisement,"I ordered this product thinking I was getting a 240 Watt 5.25 system, but what I received was a 150 watt 5.25 system. When requested an explanation from the supplier I was told, the manufacture changed the specs on this product, so what you see is not what you are getting. I would contact the supplier before ordering this item. Needless to say I kept the item since I was left with no other option. Shipping and packaging of the item was great, but I would have been happier if the product I purchased was the product I ordered."
+4124,1,Horrifying,"This storyline was absolutely horrifying to my 6 and 8-year olds, especially when the evil headmistress puts the cute white puppy, Santa Paws, into a burning incinerator...enough said. The screen writers and/or editors obviously are not parents."
+4125,1,I hate this toy and so does my daughter!!,"We bought this for my daughter a month ago because she fit into the age recommendation. This toy was basically a HUGE waste of money. I'm very disapointed in Fisher Price for making such a boring toy. The balls are hard for me to pull off of the wheel so you can imagine how it must be for my daughter. The music is very annoying and one of the attachments already broke. I can't believe this thing cost $35.00. I'm very disapointed and I wish I could return it, but I threw out the box before I gave my daughter a chance to play with it."
+4126,1,Good for kiddies,"If you are the mother of young children, or homeschooling your youngster to do art, then this is quite possibly the book for you. Assuming you have little or no knowledge of drawing, it takes you through the basics, in easy, child-level steps. I've used it with my little boy, and he's showing great talent, at least according to this book - it's hard to tell at this age. Book seems a bit limited, though, but at least for my boy the level of language is usefully simple."
+4127,1,Useless and overpriced and clunky,"After trying my brother in law's Kindle for a week, I have drawn the following conclusions of the device itself. The technology behind its feel is like driving a 1986 Buick. I was unimpressed. It is difficult to mark areas or return to areas you would like to re read, It is too expensive, the downloads for some books actually cost more than the hard copy, the screen darkened on me for a couple of minutes and I had to restart the thing.Why not just buy the book used? Can I get one autographed by the author? What's cheaper, leaving your kindle on the bus or a book?$350 will buy a lot of books, even at retail prices."
+4128,1,Motorola H700 Bluetooth Headset,"I have tried several and found the H700 to be my best pick. I like the collapasable boom which serves two function. First, it is a very positive way to turn it on and off. Other devices require that you depress a button for a specifed period of time and wait for the tone. This fucntion was a little unreliable on some of the units I tired. Secondly, it make for a smaller package for easier storing. The over the ear attachment was comfortable and secure. With devices that plug into your ear, I could never get a good fit or feeling like it would fall out and I would loose it. Sound quality and connection speed is excellent when used with my Samsung A900M."
+4129,1,not for use with water,"This connector sprayed water from the center immediately, so it is not useful for joining hoses. It might have some value as a tiny paper weight."
+4130,1,false advertising on cans,"I purchased two cases of Merricks Wingalings and Smothered Comfort. The label states ""whole thighs"" and ""whole wings"" but that is a lie. Once opened, the cans have one - if you're lucky two pieces. The rest (3/4 of each can) is processed cubes of who knows what my dog refuses to eat. Merricks should either fill the can with what they advertise - ""WHOLE thighs and wings"" - plural - or tell the consumer the truth about what they are selling here."
+4131,1,too expensive and no return call.,Could have recieved this same book for $.99 online. I called the company and left my call back number but never recieved a call.
+4132,1,What in the world?,"Can anyone tell me what ""The Last Lovers on Earth"" intends to say? It touts itself as a film that ""finally dares to tell the truth."" Well, that long-awaited truth still eludes me.Is it that gay leaders have done a terrible disservice to gays by acting like clowns? Can you avoid AIDS by not participating in AIDS protests? Is the scientific community out to kill every last gay?I'm probably suffering from a lack of information here. Knowing how political the AIDS epidemic became--and remains--I may not know enough of the background to understand the film's self-proclaimed ""humor and satire.""""The Last Lovers on Earth"" presents itself as iconoclastic. But like so many things with iconoclastic intent, it manages only to be recondite, at least for me.I guess I'm one writer who doesn't get this particular ""writer's film."""
+4133,2,good read for kids.,"I gave this book as a Christmas present, my child loved it and is really enjoying reading over the winter break."
+4134,1,Boring,The trailer looked so interesting. Then I saw the movie itsself and there was nothing anymore that could be added to the trailer because the good parts I had already seen. The rest is pure bordem. Maybe the last 15 minutes deserve 3 stars. Because everything is falling together to have a satisfactory ending. But the rest is amateurish. Two of the girls - whatever the names of the actresses were - were good. Only that their script was badly writen. I hope I will see these two promising actresses again under better circumstances.
+4135,1,MADONNA..ESTHER..GO AWAY!!!,"Look, i love Madonna, but this is ridiculous.. Madonna $^@@#& it up once again, why didnt she rethink it all with Music? American life is crap for people with no life, as it is a very depressing album that is very dark and gloomy, at least Marilyn Manson can pull it off to look good, she makes a mockery of it. The only good track on it is Die another day, and that isnt morbidly depressing at all. WHERE's the Dance Madonna we loved way back when?WHERE OH WHERE?"
+4136,2,Great Grooves and High Production Values,"I was exposed to this album due to it being connected with Leiji Matsumoto (of Star Blazers and Speed Racer fame). While Daft Punk's music is decidedly their own style, if you like works by Kraftwork, Erasure, Art Of Noise, but can also groove to Stevie Wonder or Jamiroquai, then you will love this CD!"
+4137,2,about the movie Thomas affairs......,The story is basically about cstching some wrong doings which in the end got into an affairs.....a recommended purchase for those whom are interested in this genre of movie/film......
+4138,2,Living After Death...,"I actually found Zombie 4 to be highly entertaining. Even morethan Zombi 3. Of course, as you may have expected, this movie dosent compare to Fulci's Zombie, Dawn of The Dead or any other highly regarded zombie flick. This one is a good movie to laugh at and have fun with. The effects are actually quite good, and for the budget it had, its amazing what they did with this one. Its not as bad as you may think. Im reccomending this for die hard horror movie/zombie movie fans who already have 10 or more zombie films in their collection.... but if you;re willing to give it a try, by all means... go ahead!"
+4139,2,Freedom will ring and West Memphis will hear it.,"Oh, everyone else has already said so much of what I want to say. I can't tell you how much this case has changed me and the way I think. I'm shocked by how few people are even aware of it. I want to scream and yell and wake people up. I want to get the home phone number of anyone who has ever mattered in the eyes of The Law and ask them, ""What happened?"" until they can give me a reasonable answer. I want to see Damien, Jessie, and Jason go free.I want to see TRUE justice.I want to see freedom!"
+4140,2,Perfect for my use.,"I bought these to store our fresh-from-the-cow milk in and they are perfect for the job. The gasket seal keeps weird flavors from entering and once you get the hang of it, the top is easy to use. The are a nice compact shape for the refrigerator door. The large opening in the top makes it easy to skim the cream off. No one here has complained about the handle, though there is not a lot of space between it and the body of the pitcher. It keeps it compact, though, and not a problem unless you have very large hands, I should think. The only complaint is that I whacked the spout into something while getting it out of the fridge and it chipped. Clumsy me -- it is glass, after all. All in all I am very pleased and intend to order more."
+4141,2,Boba Fett...as a kid!,"Patton has always been funny. His take on the Anne Frank house is totally awesome. This is great though, besides the live cd you get a dvd with earlier takes. The star wars jokes were really original. Yay."
+4142,1,Extremely poor soundquality,"I only played a few selections on my hi-fi set, but the sound is so poor, that I decided to throw away the recording. A complete waste of money in my opinion. Really a shame because she is a first class organ playerJake (Netherlands)"
+4143,1,Too bad you cant listen to it on your computer.,This CD contains copy protection so that you cannot listen to it on a Mac or a PC.
+4144,2,One of the best books I ever read,"Practically everything in this book is encouraging - the loving personal letters, the passionately earnest Bible messages and the poems and miscellanies. So many books written today are ""how-to"". This book has helped me to meditate on Jesus. It makes formerly obscure Bible passages come to life. It inspires me to be earnest in my conversations with others and all my life. Every message I read gave me fresh views of Christ and of my own heart.This book should be put back in print! Though it was first published in 1844, it is very much relevant for today and is not difficult for the average reader to understand."
+4145,2,An exquisite masterpiece on love and music,"Few books have made the lasting impact of this one; we have given this to at least twenty friends and each has loved it thoroughly and differently. As with a great work of music, it is difficult to describe or encompass its content or meaning in mere words. Reading this novel with an open mind can subtly and beautifully alter your perspective on music and lifelong love. As one friend put it, the landscape of the novel and its characters evoke a passion and sensibility that can live with you for a long time afterward."
+4146,1,Politicians Partisans and Parasites,"I am a conservative and I just didnt like this book very much. The best part was the dirt on James Carvile, that was funny. Over all this was just a boring book."
+4147,1,"Defective item, bad service","Item was defective. One zipper broke in days, another broke a day later. Bag is unusable. Contacted the seller and they didn't even bother to respond. You really don't want to buy this product, and definitely not from Jillian Leather."
+4148,1,Saw little difference in my skin.,"I am 34 and have never had acne before. Now at this stage in life it is a problem. I ordered Klear Action with hope of a cure. However, I have been on it now for 5 weeks and the only thing I can say that is positive about it is that it has evened out my skin color and made my skin glow without make up. with that being said though my acne has NOT improved even a little bit! I think it is actually worse. I am glad it worked for others I was just not one of them!"
+4149,1,WEAK PLOT MAKES THIS A WEAK MYSTERY,"Now I like a good fictional novel as much as anyone else and I'm willing to grant an author as much freedom as possible, but this plot is so bad--so unrealistic--that its obvious that the author was grasping at straws to derive a plot. The motivation behind the murders is so implausible that this sticks out in your mind, when there was so many other possible things that could have made reading this book a rich experience. The author's writing style changes so often in the book that I found it distracting, and toward the end, downright irritating. Descriptions of Shanghai and surrounding China are somewhat memorable--I hope for the sake of the author that they are accurate."
+4150,1,Broken out of the box,"Didn't work right out of the box. Unit would always run on battery & not recognize being plugged into the wall. Asian tech support woman(polite, but very hard to understand) was worthless and ran me through the exact same troubleshooting guide that came in the package. Had to argue with them for an hour in order to get them to send me a new unit and, surprise, surprise, they send me a refurbished unit! So I bought a new item from Amazon and three days later had an old, previously broken one. Guess I should have sent my broken one back to Amazon instead of the company. Oh, but the original box did have the print-out from the tech who tested the battery before it left their warehouse. Shame they didn't test the battery when it was in the actual unit. Based on this experience, and the poor tech support, I would not buy again. There are other name brands out there to try."
+4151,1,Minus 10000 stars,"This book is complete garbage. There is nothing in it that is factual. If you want to read tabloid material please go buy ""National Enquirer"" or something.. Don't give your hard earned money or attention to this guy. He never knew The Harrison's and the book is fabricated stories by zealous bad author. Please go buy George's book ""I Me Mine"" or The Beatles 'Anthology"" book is want to learn the truth about the man."
+4152,1,Screens not as pictured and poor product support,The screens are not as pictured. We were unable to see cases being opened or our case at the end - this appeared to be a defect so we exchanged with Amazon (who has GREAT customer service). I had already sent an e-mail to the technical support site listed in the literature and got NO response whatsoever. The replaced software had the same problem. This time I e-mailed CatDaddy games through a link provided on the game itself and again got NO response whatsoever. So now this is being returned for credit.
+4153,1,Over-Hyped No Substance,Put simply Farrell's system is a blueprint for trading losses and failure.I've been day trading since the inception of electonic day trading.This book is promulgating a trading method that is nothing more than electronic snake oil.Don't be suckered.
+4154,1,Missed opportunity!,"Upon merely skimming through the index, I came upon numerous errors, as have the other reviewers. I list a couple that I spotted with ease:Incredibly, there seems to be no mention at all of Isao Tomita, at least according to the contents and index.Wendy Carlos has never owned or used a Moog System 55.Giorgio Moroder didn't use a drum machine in anger until at last 1981, when the Linn LM-1 was released. The drums and percussion on all the groundbreaking 1970's Moroder/Bellotte recordings was provided by drummer Keith Forsey or through the use of Moog synthesizer modules. It was a tape loop of Forsey's kick drum that provided the only real drum sound on 'I Feel Love'.The inaccuracies in this book made me refrain from buying it, which was a shame since the effort was clearly well-intentioned. Roll on a properly error checked new edition!"
+4155,2,Innovation in staplers!,"This is a best stapler. Who knew one has to consider ergonomics in stapler design. The design is beautiful and holding and pressing the device is very good. There are small dots on the top for a strong grip. It has been working very well. Do they make staplers in multiple colors - green, blue, red etc?!"
+4156,1,Uninspired,"Depeche Mode in general and frontman Dave Gahan specifically when through something of an identity crisis with this release. Recorded in a time when 'Grunge Rock' was assualting the music world, 'Songs Of Faith and Devotion' marks Depeche Mode's departure from their romantic synthpop style (Violater, Black Celebration), and with its integration of real drums, heads towards a kind of 'Electro Rock' style. Aside from the beautiful single 'In Your Room', this release fails to capture the 'catchyness' and energy they became famous for. 'Faith And Devotion' is the sound of a band stumbling through a pop culture wasteland in an attempt to stay relevant, which is frustrating because Depeche Mode were big enough, had they stuck to their synthpop guns (their source of strength), to alter the music scene of the 90's."
+4157,1,"Define ""History""","If this is history, then so is the story of Mohammed's flight from Mecca to Jerusalem (and back!) on a flying horse; the Mormons' tale of how Jesus visited America; and the Native American belief that the craters on the moon were formed by three frog sisters. We could go on but I think you get the point. ""History"" should contain, or at least be consistent with, some kind of verifiable data; to merely accept everything anyone says happened at some point in the past as ""history"" is to devalue the term."
+4158,2,Good rock n'roll,"Orchetra of wolves is a good music record, despite the nu metal influences. They're(the band)young but succeeded to combine very well the contemporary style of heavy music with the roots of rock."
+4159,2,Busta Bus.......Taking it to the next level.......E.L.E.,"This new album from busta Rhymes is his most creative one yet. The thing about busta that makes him so tight is his flow and the way he brings it to you and the beats he uses. This album is all that and might look crazy, but is more concious about the future than any other hip/hop record out there. Even Wu-tang! He brought Janet Jackson,Mystical, and ozzy osborn along this time as guests, as well as the Flipmode Squad. It could have done without mystical, but since busta keeps it tight it's alright. The song with janet is the best collaboration out of the three artists on here. They really worked on this one. Give this album a try and trust me Fans and Non-Fans of busta won't be disssapointed at all. Busta keeps you in full check with beats while not forgeting what times we are in, keeping it even more real. Check this album out Now! You won't regret!Until his new album...Anarchy drops in June."
+4160,2,Johnny!!,"What's up, MK fans?! This is another good movie, but not as great as the first. A lot of the characters from Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 for Sega Genesis are in it...to name a few:Liu KangRaydenSonya BladeJax BriggsPrincess KitanaJadeNightwolf (doesn't fight)Cyrax (bit part)Smoke (bit part)Mileena (fights Sonya, only one line)Noob Saibot (not seen him yet but I know he's in there)ErmacRAIN (he finally showed up!)SheevaShao KahnSindelMotaroScorpion (back from the dead)Sub-Zero's younger brother (also named Sub-Zero)Kabal and Stryker are mentioned in the movie. Scorpion and Sub-Zero finally battled..."
+4161,2,This is the book that got me reading fantasy.,I read this book shortly after it came out. I just fell in love with fantasy after that.This book explores a complex set of emotions that range between pet ownership and an almost paternal love for this little dragon. Bruce Coville does a masterful job of combining the two.He also proves in this book that it is better to have loved and lost than to never have loved at all.
+4162,1,"very bad sound, bad tracks...","this is not good. boring tracks... and a sound mostly recognizable as the sound of a car with newly married inside, with this cans hanging after it slammin' against the street. Also: Springsteen has gone to believe more into God then to ROCK N' ROLL! What's wrong with him!?"
+4163,2,My SMF pal Rami ROCKS Winterborn!,"This CD WILL ROCK YA! Brillant, heavy guitar and double bass drum sounds!!! This is the BEST UK audio I have heard since the new Twisted Sister ""A Twisted Christmas"" album.I really would like to rate it a 10-10-10-10-10!!!!!!! I love every song. Key word here is HEAVY!Loved it!"
+4164,2,British ZomCom? Yes PLEASE!,"Knocking a star off for DVD features ONLY (lack of playable extras due to region encoding as others have mentioned); the movie itself is hilarious, a perfect blend of Shaun of the Dead and The Hangover (heavier on the former than the later, obviously). Interesting creatures and zombie ""rules"" for this one; the highest praise I can give it is that I watched this streaming first, and it was so good I had to have a copy myself."
+4165,1,Protagonist is weakest character,"If you like really weak, confused, stupid and again weak protagonists this book is for you. It reminded me of The Big Lebowski; the guy gets thrown into a weird set of circumstances and really doesn't do anything except go with the flow. It all pans out and, in the end, he is a hero.The Big Lebowski was funny, this book isn't.Read something else."
+4166,2,MJ's talent is very limited,"One of the previous reviewers said 'MJ's talents know no bounds.'Hmmm...... I'd say his talent ends when you get to playing your own instruments, writing your own songs and penning lyrics that are better than Hallmark greeting cards. Don't get me wrong. I love this album, but let's not get too carried away w/ praise for MJ. He's a wonderful dancer and a pretty good singer and that's IT. I mean he's only released FIVE albums since 1979! I'd love to hear some of your comments.Chris"
+4167,2,love it sounds great!,highly recommend this adapter . sounds real nice if the songs on your ipod is of good quality. very pleased
+4168,2,"Good seller, and the product is reasonable but...",The item did arrive quickly. This DBP monitor doesn't come with AC adapter. Battery runs out quickly. Most of the time it said ERROR.
+4169,2,the best,I have been waiting a long time for this cd. I have tried to order this cd since the mid 80's. This is a must have cd if you like old school. In the beginning their was Doug E. Fresh.
+4170,1,BOO!!!!!!,This is the worst movie ever! It was shot with a video camera in some deserted office building. I bought this movie because it was rated 4-star and it never should have been.
+4171,2,A Good Classic,I think everybody should read this who likes existentialism. it is a very quick read though. i think it would make a very great movie.
+4172,1,Very Low Signal-to-Noise Ratio,"Like other reviewers, I also believe this book spends too much time communicating anecdotal evidence and far to little time discussing the primary subject matter.Additionally, the author appears to believe that everyone is made from a cookie cutter with exactly the same strengths and weaknesses, such that intelligent leadership, based on an understanding of people and how to motivate them as individuals, is not needed. The only leadership that is required, according to Mr. Senge, is someone to create the structure from which the ""Learning Organization"" will spontaneously materialize.Lastly, his overly simplistic, and thoroughly one-sided, examination of political issues is an unnecessary distraction from the material.I don't dispute that there's value to System's Thinking as a discipline, but Mr. Senge has failed to communicate that value in this work. You can obtain the same information without having to read this book by reading this review of it:[...]"
+4173,1,Stories written to fit a formula ...,"The stories, all of them, have the same sad ending. The emotions expressed in the stories are very artificial and totally blown out of proportions. The analogies are, to put it mildly, silly. Seems like the author writes these analogies down and forces them into her writings. The writing lacks, among other things, grace. Over all she exhibits a very shallow understanding of human heart. Treat yourself to simple, beautiful and effortless writing of Jhumpa Lahari in her ""Interpreter of Maladies"" short stories collection. Or better yet, try ""A Suitable Boy"" in which Vikram Seth narrates the saga a mother goes through to find ""A Suitable Boy (ie, husband)"" for her daughter. The writing (of Vikram Seth) is humorous, intelligent and insightful."
+4174,1,"Defective item, Seller won't respond","I purchased this camera as a birthday present. Once I got it, I found out that I had to spend even more money in order to even get the thing on and working- I had to buy a battery, charger, memory card, and USB cord. I purchased and waited for the additional items only to find that the camera didn't work. After a little online research, I found that the red dot that came up instead of taking a picture was a common problem for this camera and costs between $150-$200 to fix. I contact the seller OVER A MONTH ago to arrange a refund and I am still waiting on a response. I use amazon a lot and this is my first bad experience."
+4175,2,The Orignial Runaway Bride,"This Frank Capra classic is all about the chemistry between Colbert and Gable--wow does it work! The uptown girl runaway bride (how current!) and the downtown and down on his luck reporter go from the fox and hound to...well the foxy and the hound.The banter and the moments, from the hitchhiking lesson Colbert gives Gable to the flimsy wall of Jericho Gable gives Colbert are gems.The film has one of the best wedding-scene endings in movie history (the others being ""The Graduate"" ""Four Weddings and a Funeral"" and ""The Philadelphia Story""), complete with what has to be one of the oldest helicopters ever put on film.Pardon me while I get my tin trumpet, folks..."
+4176,2,good for digestive problems,"This product does cut down on gas and bloating. I take it before meals and it does wonders. Be sure to drink it with cold (not hot or warm) water to wash it down. If you don't, you may experience some peppermint reflux. I like this formulation better than the one she had used many years ago. The product performs like it says it does. I recommend it highly."
+4177,2,His favorite toy!,I got this for my dog and he loves it. He was finally able to poke a hole in it after about 2 months of hard chewing on it. He's a 65lb german shepard mix and at first I thougt it was way too big but it's not! He looks like prancer when he runs around the yard with it because he's so happy. I'm getting him a second one now. He still plays with the popped one but it doesn't bounce as well.
+4178,1,Don't waste your time or your money.,"If you must read this then get it at the library like I did. This author is presumptuous to believe she could ever work for a quality, albeit fairly generic publication such as the ""New Yorker"". She writes the way I talk, which is an endless nervous babble to get all my thoughts out in a short timespan. Really, this was a big waste of time, and whenever anyone asked me what it was I was reading, I replied ""a junky book""."
+4179,1,has a bit of static with the sound,not worth it to buy. but it's an old item. the ear piece is not as comfortable either.
+4180,1,Prickly Pear,"My hubby and I got this thinking wonderful! Oh, no... I don't think you should wish this product on your worst neighbor (unless they deserve a good prick for being one!) If your looking at this item, turn away! There are feathers all over my room they get thru the fabric, thru a padded cover and into your body all night long! I gave it a month thinking maybe it will get better, OH NO!! It's worse! Don't BUY!!Wouldn't you think that Amazon would stand behind their products and if this many people hated this pin cushion this much that they would send a replacement or do some kind of recall while they kick themselves for ever selling a product like this??? I for one will probably not buy something on sale or recomended by Amazon ever again! This was my first Amazon experience and it will probably be my last!"
+4181,1,Good special effects.,"I love Criterion DVD's but this one has poor extras,the one exception being the effects documentary which is very good.As for the deleted scenes and gag reel,*well* you only have to see some of the awful scenes left in the movie to realise that the deleted scenes and gag reel(unfunny)don't amount to much.They actually land on the barren meteor with skis(?)on the Shuttle!That would be impossible on a runway let alone barren ground.On the plus side this film has great special effects,such as the destruction of Paris when a meteor hits,and Bruce Willis does a good job in his role.This film actually shows the advantage of DVD because if you press fast forward past the poorly written scenes(the animal cracker scene is truly terrible),then you can have a very entertaining 50 minute movie!The ending is nicely done.This movie has extended scenes but they don't amount to much."
+4182,2,Good Music,I jut love the Gospel Keynotes music that I can listen to and never get tired of it.The music it very good and the voice mix so well.More so I like when he call on Paul to sing The Keynotes is one of my favorite groups.The song that is my Son it mean so much to me.I had someone to borrow it and I never got it back.But it is always in my head playing.
+4183,2,Another Bette Davis Classic that does well,"This is a pretty good performance by Bette Davis, Karl Malden in a movie that features a ""poor twin"" and a ""rich twin"". The ""poor twin"" kills the ""rich twin"" and takes over her life.Pretty similar to another movie called ""Stolen Life"" that explores the same theme, except she takes over the twins life after an accident, not after killing her.Although not one of her best, it is still a good watch and a good performance by both actors."
+4184,2,It's a good laugh at Christmas!!,"The best cut - by far is the 12 Pains of Christmas, especially when the song gets to the higher numbers and the singers are getting frustrated with their ""tasks."" The Child singing ""The Chimney Song"" was adorable. I also laughed aloud at ""The Restroom Door Said Gentleman."" The message from Elvis and the Jack Nickelson peice - I could've done without. Also the ""Foreigners"" track usually get's fastfowarded over. All in all I really do enjoy the tape."
+4185,1,Not the quality of the Company series,The Anvil of the World is not a Company book. It is a fantasy book. It was not a very compelling book. It lacked the depth and layers that the Company books have. It was pretty pointless.
+4186,2,Wonderful Book,"I use Java primarily and have little C experience. I never encountered C++ before and bought it to learn it. This book explains the language and its complexities very well. I would definitely recommend it to any one wishing to learn the language or use is as a reference.My complaints if any would be that the pages are too delicate for my fingers. But hey, its only $35!! A definitely recommend it!!"
+4187,2,One of my most FAVORITE cds!,This CD is wonderful! For those of you who like bluegrass but not the old fashioned sound of it then this is for you. The Rubber Band wonderfully plays and picks traditional bluegrass instruments but sings modern sounding almost pop like songs. If I Were A Bird and I Will Love You Forever are my most favorite songs on the CD. I love the whimsical quality of there songs. The band almost reminds me of Barenaked Ladies in how the sing songs about the craziest things which I love!
+4188,1,Focuses on the arrival of Europeans and after,"The jacket copy on this book claims that it covers events ""spanning two thousand years... beginning with the rise of... Oc Eo, to the glory of the Cambodian Empire in the first millennium..."" This is true to the extent that all years up to 1511 are covered in the first 30 pages, and the next twenty pages take us up to 1860. For coverage of early Southeast Asian history, I recommend the Lonely Planet guides as much more detailed, and more useful once you're there. (On the causes of the fall of the empire at Angkor, Osborne says ""No single, overriding cause for this event can be identified, nor would it be sensible to try and find one."" My Lonely Planet guide discussed the patterns of overbuilding, mentioned the deliterious effect of the corveé, and talked about issues with water supply, at least.) If your interest is in Southeast Asia since the French came, then this is a fairly absorbing and well-written book."
+4189,2,da dam best south rap cd that came out dis year!!!,"I just bought this cd today. and I truly thought it would be an master piece! Gipp's word play is spectular being an x member of goodie mob member he is still holdin his own! one luv 2 da real rappers in the southern reigon Outkast, Goodie Mob, Dungeon Family, David Banner, Scarface,pastor troy, No limit is trash and cash money is crap!"
+4190,1,Patch Awful,"People were hung at Nuremburg for less than this crime against humanity. I found it addictively appalling, in its cringingly predictable and patronising plot, script, music and Robin Williams playing his usual so-brilliant-he's-nearly-insane-but-wacky-and-all-too-humane schtick.And then the only fit woman gets murdered and it's all over ickily washed over in about 5 minutes, while Adams gets off a medicine-no-licence rap (aside from theft of hospital supplies) with some illogical rant to the gallery. Evil that got one star off me only so I could post it."
+4191,1,Not impressed,This stuff put into practice would spread your network to thin and you wouldn't make real friends with anybody. I didn't gain anything from reading this book.
+4192,1,B-sides are easier to find elsewhere,"The B-sides for this single are identical to those on the ""Concertina"" single which was a US release and is easier to find and more affordable.The live performances of ""Famous Blue Raincoat"" and ""Twinkle"" warrant this a definite purchase for Tori fans. ""Famous Blue Raincoat"" is a Leonard Cohen cover than cannot be found anywhere else."
+4193,2,It works,It works as advertised. I use this so that I can plug the transmitter for my Sennheiser RS 160 into my Denon receiver's headphone jack.
+4194,2,"Powerfully breathtaking, a masterpiece of a film!","Steven Spielberg is a master at what he does, there is no reason why this film should not have won the ""Best Picture"" Oscar. ""Saving Private Ryan"" is the most realistic, emotionally draining, and terrifying portrayal of men at war. It is brutal but honest, and gives the viewer a true sense of belonging in an infantry platoon. The films touch of authenticity is, once again, a great credit to Cpt Dale Dye, who worked on ""Platoon"". Tom Hanks gives another outstanding performance as does the rest of its cast. Being a Gulf War veteran, this film does hit hard, but it is about as close to combat as anyone sober would want to be."
+4195,2,KNOWING IS OK,"FIRST I FOUND IT MORE SCI FI THAN SPIRITUAL. HOW? WELL FIRST OFF SINCE WHEN IS GOD AN ALIEN BEING WHO COMES IN SPACE SHIPS AND TALKS TO KIDS IN WHISPERS?I SAW AT THE END HOW SOMEONE COULD GO SCREAMING OMG ITS THE GARDEN OF EDEN WITH KIDDIES.BASICALLY THE EARTH IS GONNA GO BOOM.AND ALIEN RACE THAT IS KINDER AND GENTLER THAN WE ARE DECIDES TO GIVE US A SECOND CHANCE.UM WHERE DOES GOD COME UP? HE DOESN'T..... IT'S ET, MAYBE THE VULCANS WHO KNOWS WHAT RACE BUT IT ISN'T GOD IN ANYWAY.I WOULD HOPE IF WE EVER GET ADVANCED ENOUGH IN TECH WE WOULD FIND OTHER WORLDS THAT ARE POPULATED AND GO HOLY SMOKES THAT ONES IS GONNA GO BOOM AND RUN OVER AND SAVE SOME OF THEM... BUT HUMANS ARE NOT KNOWN TO BE NICE.I LOVED THE MOVIE AND IM NOT A FAN OF CAGE! I AM COMING AROUND NOW THAT HE DID THE MOLE ON G FORCE .BRING ON THE HATE MAIL I KNOW ITS COMING BUT IF YOU ARE SO INSECURE YOU HAVE TO FIND GOD IN EVERYTHING THAT HAS TO DO WITH ALIENS GET OVER IT"
+4196,1,"Leaks, leaks, leaks","I have tried Huggies in the past and should have known better. I can buy ANY other brand of diapers for my kids with no problems, but we always have issues with Huggies. I have tried these with all 5 of my kids and we have always had issues with leaking out the sides (especially overnight). I have learned my lesson and will not buy Huggies anymore."
+4197,1,"Luxurious, yes. Absorbent, not so much.","I ordered two sets of these and when they arrived I followed the directions exactly as to pre-laundering them etc, etc. They are certainly good looking, thick towels. BUT, and it's a big BUT, for some reason or other the towels and washcloths have a tough time absorbing the water when towelling off...much less than a regular run-of-the-mill towel. For such thick towels I'd expect them to be far more absorbent than they are. So, bottom line, they look good, feel good, but aren't anywhere near as effective as other towels that I've used. Would I buy them again? Nope."
+4198,1,I agree with reader from NJ,"If this had been my first Anne Rivers Siddon's novel, I would have never have read any others. I found it terribly boring and the characters not up to par. I would definitely recommend you read Outer Banks, Colony, or Fault Lines, Up Land and The House NExt Door"
+4199,2,"Great Quality, Comfy, Durable, Warm, and Versatile","My girlfriend bought me these slippers about 5 years ago and I've been wearing them ever since. Winter is when they get used mostly because they are so warm. I wear them constantly around the house and even out to run errands. The slippers have stood up to the abuse of the outdoors.They've completely held up and almost look brand new. The only thing is on the bottom the suede is wearing away a little, but after 5 years, I'd say that's to be expected.I love them so much I bought my father a pair."
+4200,2,A lively story about a serious subject,"Mark's history of his time with the SOE code department is fun and informative to read. With a few worthwhile asides about wartime life, this mostly focuses on his duties of creating and distributing codes to agents for use in occupied Europe. The flip side is dealing with the decoding of messages returned by those agents, and some of the problems that can arise. A worthwhile addition to the library of anyone interested in the secret side of WWII."
+4201,2,very good,"I found this cited inMAGIC OF CONFLICT. What a fantastic book, with a heart-touching story. Basically, soldiers in WW I decided spontaneously not to kill each other, during Christmas. There is a great British movie about this, also."
+4202,1,Psychological Waste of Time,"Well, I didn't watch an anime intil I was 20. The first was Robotech. Following the Giant Robot theme, I bought the Mobile Suit Gundam Wing Series. Unsatisfaction in that caused me to buy this. A friend told me that it was good and I decided I could trust his opinion.After I completed this series, I asked myself what I just watched. It has promising characters, but they all seem phychologically insane. Buy the two movies that follow these. The last movie doesn't help you understand the series, but it does offer one sl=mall explanation for one factor in the story.In essence, if you want a series that is big on story, DO NOT buy this. If you are a psychologists in training,buy this."
+4203,1,"Kindle edition is NOT a ""print replica""","I rented this textbook for my kindle at a great price compared to buying. However, there were several boxes that were completely greyed out and had the message that the content was copyrighted and could not be viewed. I called Amazon customer service to resolve this but they were unable to fix it. They did refund my rental fee, but I do not recommend viewing this on your kindle."
+4204,2,Worked very good,Works great. . . Had no problem with ick transferring fish to new tank. A must have for new tank of fish.
+4205,1,Why would they do that?,"The case is nice, but for the life of me, I can't understand why they would design it specifically for the Coleman roadtrip grill and then not allow enough space to zip it up with the grill handle attached. I like the protection it provides when stored in the RV, but I would think twice if I had it to do over again."
+4206,1,Leaked Everywhere,Very disappointed. I received my shampoo and it leaked everywhere. A third of the product was gone. I wrote a comment regarding packaging and haven't heard a thing back.
+4207,2,Diana Ross/ Beyonce Knowles,"This could have been a classic and a mile stone for the girls, but once again the song is overpowered with Beyonces vocals. First of all the song, though catchy, is too repetitive and too obivious. First Beyonce sings her verse then Kelly and then Michelle. What would have made the song more interesting and more of a classic, is to have Michelle sing the whole song. Why Not!!! Remember when TLC had Chilli on the lead vocal on 'No Scrubs', it was instantly a classic. Beacause TLC fans were used to hearing T-Boz in the lead this raised the bar for TLC and gave their fans something new. How refreshing would it be to let the othe members of the group have there moment to shine?"
+4208,2,TARGUS CITYGEAR 80,CD/DVD CASE HOLDS UP TO 80 DISKS - QUALITY CONSTRUCTION - SLEEVES ARE VERY SOFT AND HOLD THE DISKS SNUGGLY - RECOMMEND WITHOUT HESITATION.
+4209,1,Needlessly wordy and long winded,"While O'Brien seems to really know his stuff, and the book covers a vast array of material, it's just too darn wordy. His sentence structure, and word usage are awkward. Many of the terms he uses are NEEDLESSLY large and difficult to understand. He uses terms like 'tactical planning', 'proactive and interactive', and the like with out even explaining what he means. Many of his sentences have fillers and are full of redundancies.The simple fact is that text books that are well written make learning the material easier. I implore the author to fix this book.This is a poorly written book that has a great deal of valuable knowledge."
+4210,1,Starts off good but ends horrid,"The start of the dvd with story of how WCW started is AWESOME. All that lead up and all the info and views really makes the first dvd the best of the set.The classic matches are good too. It spans from 85 to 94. These are all great matches with numerous matches with Sting, Flair, Lugar and great tag matches.Unfortunately, the third disc is not put together well at all. Only two good matches on this dvd, being the NWO vs WCW Fall Brawl and Steiners vs Outsiders. There should have been WAY better matches, mostly consisting of the NWO Black and White as well as the Wolfpac, which was easily the biggest Rise of WCW. You have to guess that they are gonna make a NWO 3 disc dvd that will span this, but unfortunately, its not on this set as it should be. When you end the dvd with Booker T vs Lance Storm that will ruin anything."
+4211,1,Worked but loud and slow and had to stop and restart.,"I got this a a baby shower gift. It was what I had asked for but I was very disappointed after the first use. I had to keep stopping it so the milk would flow into the bottle. Plus, it was so loud I couldn't even hear the TV. Thank goodness I only had to pump a few times or I would have went nuts. I am going to buy a manual pump with my next baby. And I will definitely read the reviews before I waste $40."
+4212,2,"""Death in Venice"" Updated","The perfect change of venue for the ""Death in Venice"" thematic -- older man falls in love with younger male, only here it's a pedantic Brit writer and the boy is . . . a Hollywood pulp actor in movies like ""Hotpants College II"" (!) who lives on Long Island. As in Mann's original story, the fixation is Platonic rather than sexual, but the film pulses with pathos, a dark Wagnerian atmosphere perfectly captured by the haunting, sublime music score by Richard Grassby-Lewis, but also the drollest wit in recent moviemaking. John Hurt as the older Brit is just priceless, his role a gem with facets that gleam in all directions...I give it the full galaxy of FIVE STARS."
+4213,2,Davenport's Art Reference and Price Guide 2001-2002,"This reference book without a doubt is the final word in researching artwork history and sales records. When you've exhauseted research efforts in all other reference guides, Davanport's takes over. I feel much safer going to auctions with the knowledge gained from the information found in Davenports. Awesome tool!!"

+4216,2,Best can opener EVER,"Pros: best can opener, i ever used. Most plastic ones feel flimzy and keep breaking on me. They dull up too quick and spin out when excessive force is required. This simple looking can opener is best for what it does.Cons: you still don't have one"
+4217,1,Brand new printer - no black ink & no USB Cable,I can't believe that a brand new printer does not come with BLACK ink. I called the customer service. They said you had to buy it separately. A very bad impersion to start. Think before you make an order.
+4218,1,"Give me a break, Harvard","Anyone who listens to that Harvard nut-job is a sap. This book is alright, not as good as Gilbert's, though. The way to go is to pick ONE book that makes sense to you and study it well. Harvey's ""forest and trees"" theory begs the question: If he falls down in a forest and there is no one there to hear his cries for help, will anyone care?"
+4219,2,wendy is fierce,"Wendy has the strength,the courage,the will to get it all done! This is a quick read with a few surprises. Ms Williams has written her biography from the very interesting viewpoint of a successful black woman who is or should be a role model for all young women!"
+4220,1,A zero star candidate.,"Some versions of Premiere Pro, including the trial version included with this book, will not open QuickTime files. Guess what format all the movie lesson files are in. Oh yeah, QuickTime! I'm only 40 pages into this and already five major mistakes which should have been picked up in proof reading. One paragraph applies only to Premiere 6.5 and shouldn't even be in the book. Why Wiley sells junk like this is beyond comprehension."
+4221,2,Good,"Shelves are shallow, really best for cans, but I do tend to put other things in it. Works great other than that minor detail."
+4222,1,Where's The Story?,"I was thoroughly disappointed by this novel.I really liked the characters that Peter Hedges created and he touches on some serious issues; alcoholism, divorce, sexual abuse but where is the story? I kept waiting for something to happen and it never did.Loan this one from the library if you need to read it."
+4223,1,Riddled with Typos and Grammatical Errors!,"I was familiar with this case and was really looking forward to reading the book. It was such a disappointment! There were so many typos and grammatical errors in this self-published book that I simply could not read it. The book does not seem to have gone through any basic editing at all - and is repetitive and boring as well. I have read many, many true crime books over the years and it is rare for me to not finish one."
+4224,2,Good Book,I am happy with the reasponse from Amazon. I had no problems with the book or the service.
+4225,2,Baez shines on her own songs,"I first had this on album and then on 8 track. I especially like""Outside the Nashville City Limits"", which she wrote about a trip with Kris Kristophersen to visit the writers of ""The Long Black Veil"". Also the haunting song ""Thee Horses"". This c.d. proved that she was not only a gifted singer but a prolific songwriter as well."
+4226,2,Movie for all Ages,"Driving Miss Daisy is a very touching and heart warming drama. The performances by Morgan Freeman and Jessica Tandy are geniune and flawless. Parents, Teachers, and Children should all view this film for it's integrity and frienship values that this picture displays. The bond between a Jewish White woman and Colorard Man down in the deep South during the days of Civil Rights, it's not just a picture packed with great performances and a great screenplay, but it sends a everlasting message to society in general, the bigotry that continues even today, and how a strong bond can last over the course of time between two people completly different from one another. All should learn a valuable lesson from this movie, life is not forever, but a friendship can be."
+4227,2,Yoko as Icon: better than Styxx,"Yoko for you useless bashers, was ( and still lives on ) as a pre-patti smith punk/feminist pro-tolerance creature of confrontation and peace who coupled with the late great John...became a centerpiece for young girls/women on the edge who had nothing more to ""look up to"" than Linda Rondstadts frickin' knee-hi's. Yoko was explosive and daring and the ultimate alien... Geez... give john credit. He wanted to 'break up the beatles' in 1965. Buy this. or borrow it. people with balls are rare. and yoko had 'em."
+4228,1,Don't buy on VHS,"Mine broke on the first day I recevied it, it was a VHS tape that could have been the problem but also the Tape was new, still in it's srienk wrapper and spanking brand new I placed it in my VCR and the film started blink black then it when back to the movie momentarally and then a few hours later I decide to take it out out the VCR and it pulls the tape from the film up out of it! It could have been my VCR that could needed some cleaning but there is no reason for it to brake the way it did. It really sucked so hard I wouldn't buy it on VHS if you want to purchase it in stead I'd would get it on DVD plus you get it the original doll and and the first demonic toys can't beat it plus it's on dvd and it looks a whole lot crearer than the VHS Version"

+4235,2,a well-done history,"Britain started out ahead, but partly for that reason her carrier forces (and especially planes) were less suited for combat than America's. This is an excellent study of how that came to pass. Sadly missing is an equally insightful look at the Japanese carrier fleet, which in the winter of 1941-42 was arguably the equal of America's."
+4236,2,"useful, common sense advice",I wish all new parents would read this book!! The section on fevers is particularly great. So much of the book is useful and common sense advice.
+4237,1,Fake product,"The authentic Drakkar Noir scent is awesome. I have worn it for years. As one of the reviewers reports, it is like catnip fo the ladies. I recently purchased a bottle of the Drakkar Noir from Amazon.com. Unfortunately, I recieved a cheap knockoff not even close to the authentic Drakkar Noir scent. Then I discovered that Amamzon.com return policy does not allow a return for flamable goods. I have asked for a refund but we will see. Probably a totally wasted $50 because I aint gonna wear that trash."
+4238,1,"Hard, Small, Does Not Rock on Carpet","I purchased this rocker with the matchingCarolina Cottage Upholstered Jacquard Ottoman, Green. The chair is very easy to assemble. The chair back's fabric had a large discolored stripe on arrival. The manufacturer sent a new back within two weeks. Some stapling is visible on sides and bottom of chair.The chair does not rock on carpet. I called the manufacturer to make sure I had the runners positioned correctly, which they were. Also, the back is very short, coming just short of my shoulders. The seat and back are far too firm, even for someone who likes a firm chair. Overall, it is attractive, but uncomfortable."
+4239,1,Not available for Kindle,"Contrary to what Amazon indicates when you do a general search for ""dictionary Kindle"" this dictionary cannot be purchased for a Kindle. Nor can any other unabridged dictionary. The Kindle is first and foremost for readers and those who read a lot find comprehensive dictionaries very valuable. In the Kindle users' guide they indicated you can buy and install other dictionaries but no unabridged dictionaries are available. I think it is false advertising. There are some specialized dictionaries, such as medical dictionaries but no general, comprehensive dictionaries."
+4240,1,Don't Buy,"Don't be tempted by the price--this is just junk in a fancy package. It broke on me after less than a year. Judging by the other comments on this site, I was lucky. Before this, I had a Braun which heated up quickly and worked for ten years without a hitch. This kettle took long to boil, the surface became dangerously hot, and both the on/off switch and the water level indicator stuck. Avoid."
+4241,1,Stay away!,"Some say this is an inspirational movie for young girls. Just so you know, they are wrong! If you're a parent do not show this to your child. It promotes sexism in the worst ways. The girls a children are all persecuted by boys. This is taken to the absolute extreme. This is not like real life. Every interaction with the boys these girls have they act as if they are being attacked. In response they proceed to become violent physically, verbally, and by their actions. This is a horrible movie and a bad influence. 0/10. Do not watch it, stay away from this disgusting movie."
+4242,2,excellent,Excellent. This book kept me from sleeping. I just could not put it down. What a ending. I never thought about this person being the cause of all the events that occurred. This book need to become a movie.
+4243,2,Gone With the Wind is the BEST!!!!!!!!!!!!,There isn't a whole lot to say that hasn't already been said about Gone With The Wind. What a magnificent motion picture for it's day and now for today as well. The DVDS' are a tribute to this must have film for your home library.
+4244,1,What a HORRIBLE book.,"I just don't see how everyone loves this book. It is a *never ending* tale of Bilbo Baggins and his 'journey' with the wizard and dwarves. J.R.R. Tolkien is a quite horrible writer...the story goes on and on and on, continuing with them hiding in a cave, fighting a dragon, or another thing of that sort. I am a pre-teenager and I still cannot focus on it because of its pure stupidity."

+4246,2,It does NOT get better than this.,"This warped take on the old Jonny Quest adventures features some of the best comic book/sci fi/action adventure hilarity you can imagine. I've been waiting a year for this DVD set to finally come out and it's finally arriving. Sit back, keep the kids away and enjoy. For Adult swim fun, you seriously can't beat the Venture Bros. The voice acting, animation, music, stories, you name it, all 5 stars."
+4247,2,Absolutely Worth the Money,This is absolutely worth the money. It makes the small-ish Digital Rebel XTi feel 1000% better in your hands. Highly recommended.
+4248,1,heard it before,"Demetre rehashes many things we've already heard before about how to win the weight wars. She spiritualizes everything, though. The book is kind of cliched and I was dismayed at the inclusion of her husband's infidelity in a book about weight loss. I couldn't see the point in divulging that in a book like this. That was a turn-off. At least we got to hear how gracious and forgiving she was to him. Self-serving with no new insights."
+4249,1,Inadequate Power,"After charging for days, this unit cannot even budge a V6. It is not rated for the advertised power output (400 Amps). After repeated emails, the manufacturer appears to have no interest in helping me utilize the unit."
+4250,2,Love it!,"Love the rechargeable mouse..its genious! The entire package is great other than the keyboard being very light and bulky. Love it! I have had this product before (at least the mouse, which is why I purchased this package...really save $$ on batteries. Mouse and batteries lasted 5 years first go round!)."
+4251,2,The best role-playing book in existence?,"This book is my favourite role-playing book ever. It contains absolutely no rules, and it contains a plethora of history and myths for Glorantha. It's not designed to give characters some new edge, as so many bacground books do for RPGs; rather it is designed to kick-start brain cells. This is a most excellent book."
+4252,1,Auto Time Setting,I also could not get it to use the feature that automatically sets the time as an NYC resident.
+4253,2,Still Swingin',"This album is a wonderful combination of two jazz greats. It was a delight to hear the sounds of the past. This is a great starter album to get if you've longing to hear some good ""true"" jazz."

+4255,1,Not quite worthless...,"Ditto to the majority of the other reviews: this book is full of mistakes and poorly written. I've also used 5 other Exam Crams in my now completed quest for the MCSE, and this was by far the worst. Don't waste your money or time..."
+4256,1,AWFUL!,"If I could give this book a zero rating I would. It is awful...trite plot, shallow characters, endless blood and gore, which, in many cases, doesn't advance the plot...just seems to fill time/pages.I LOVE the Alex Cross series, but James Patterson should be taken out and beaten for this one. Over-blown plot line and silly hypothesis."
+4257,2,For artists,For the Artist who knows what he or she is at and its certainly not for the hobbiest who would be lost with this book.This for me is a great book as it has enrichened me....information is always good.I am delighted to have it. a worthy addition in any collection.
+4258,2,The history of Mardi Gras through 3 generations,"The story of Mardi Gras in New Orleans is recounted in this novel about 3 generations of young men and women whose lives run in parallel. ""L'Americaine"" Andy Breckenridge falls in love with the creole beauty Estelle Lenoir during the season of her debut in 1890's New Orleans. Estelle is promised to another and problems ensue as she battles with her upbringing as an obedient daughter and the desire to throw it all away to be with the man she wants. Many years later Andy's married son Breck falls in love with Estelle's daughter Marie Celeste. The circle continues up through the 1940's as the descendants of Estelle and Andy find their lives remain intertwined until both sides find happiness and fulfilment. The settings during Mardi Gras celebrations of the upper classes are fascinating and anyone who loves New Orleans will enjoy these snapshots from another age."
+4259,1,LOUD NOISEY !,"Limp Bizkit is one of ( if not ) the worst bands to mix rock and rap. They try to be like Kid Rock, but they can't come close to anybody! I would even listen to Britney Spears! Fred Durst has to be the worst person to sing ever. His annoying voice and stupid lyrics, are just what he is, annoying and stupid! Hot dog has to be the worst atemptt to be cool by swearing ever. I thought 3 Dollar Bills Y'all was alful, but this is even worst. Redman, DMX And Method Man Have to be crazy if they ever appear on a Limp Bizkit CD again!In short Limp Bizkit is a bunch of loud jackasses form Jacksonville who aomehow got a record deal. Never, ever, buy this CD and waste your money because you can do better!Peace Out."
+4260,1,"SImply, bad...","Ok, here's a list of what makes this a bad guitar:1- The strings don't feel right. Specially the 6th string. It hits the fret board and makes an annoying sound even if you strum lightly.2- The amp is not clear.3- The tuner messes the tuning instead of adjusting it.On the other hand, it has some advantages:1- The picks are good. They come with different colors.Conclusion:Don't buy! Unless it's you 1st guitar and you don't want to spend much money. However, if it's your first time with guitars, I recommend buying an acoustic. Many very good acoustics are sold with cheap prices.Thanks for reading. I hope this was a helpful review."

+4263,2,Great game for a young gamer!!,I bought this game for my 5 year old son who has limited video game experience. He loves it and it's perfect for introducing video gaming. My husband and I have spent a lot of time playing it too! I highly recommend it for parents looking for an easy fun game as a starter for young kids!
+4264,2,White Christmas DVD,My mom and I would watch this movie every year when I was growing up. It just did not seem like Christmas until we watched White Christmas.
+4265,1,"Quality is nice, but there are some issues.","I bought 3 pairs of these cables to make a 6 channel bundle to go from my blu-ray player into the surround processor. The quality seems very nice, and I like the braided covering over the wires.What I don't really like about them is:The ends fit WAY too tight into the RCA connections. I had to be very careful to twist and push them in, because I heard the circuit board cracking on my Rotel RSP-1066 as I connected them."
+4266,1,bad tape,the tape had tracking problems. i realized it was a used tape. my fault i guess. i still watched it but it was annoying
+4267,1,Digital Concepts telephoto lens review,"I was very disappointed with the quality of the pictures using the lens on my Sony H2 camera. At full telephoto length, the pictures have a lighted haze around the image at the center of the picture. I have tried experimenting somewhat, but have been unable to eliminate the ""haze"" from teh pictures. I do wonder if it could possibly be due to the Sony telephoto lens being a 1.7X while this is a 2X lens and the telephoto setting on the camera may be set to the 1.7X range as it seems less of a problem with less than full telephoto range pictures."
+4268,1,Gary Puckett lost his voice,"This is one of the biggest disapointments that I have ever had with a DVD. I remember the original Gary Puckett and the Union Gap. Somewhere along the way, Gary lost his voice and is not interested in singing the songs the way he originally sang them. If you are a Gary Puckett and the Union Gap fan, don't waste your money on this DVD. I would give this one a 0 if I could."
+4269,1,Wow..,"Well, it is really a biography of the author. I didn't like the book at all. I borrow it from a friend, and after reading it I realized that it was a complete waste of time. There is nothing new, and nothing useful."
+4270,1,"Nice photos, but not great soap","The photos are wonderful. The recipes are only varied according to the eo's that are used. The amounts of eo's would not apply for pure eo's. Soapmakers beware! Start with a small amount of eo, find out how it effects your skin and those using your soap, you can always adjust.non tallow soap is too soft to make for everyday use. I use my soap for everything, including the laundry. I would not be able to do this with a vegetable soap. Tallow also cuts the cost, and last a lot longer."
+4271,2,A Great Book,"This book is good. At first nothing is really happening, and all at once things start to happen, and it doesn't stop until the very end. I like how she had two suspects and you couldn't tell who the bad one was. It was scary at the end, but it was a great book."
+4272,1,I am confused,I can not see how they made a movie out of this book. I should have read more reviews. Claire and Henry completely lost me on Henry's travels. The worst part was when there were two Henrys and two of his daughter. Also I had a hard time understanding why he had to leave his clothes every time. I was never sure when he died. Early in the book or when?
+4273,2,love for the washington squares,"The Washington Sqaures winning, dry spoof of beat hipsterism was much appreciated. At their worst the Squares were much too honorific of Kerouac and the Beats, but their tight harmonies & songs were really enjoyable. It's hard to imagine a group like this getting signed today.I heard Daylight the other day and it brought me back to the time I had this album on vinyl. Even if you only listened to ""You are not alone"" and ""Daylight"" thousands of times for the rest of your life (which I will) this would be worth whatever anyone wanted for it.The Squares deserved so much success, but unfortunately never found an audience for their smart talent. Their appearance(s?) on MTV before it became a channel to push product provided a few laughs. I was saddened recently to learn that Paskow had died.Best to you Agnelli & Goodkind!"
+4274,2,My boyz are back,I love this album... been a fan since creepin on ah come up and I have been very critical of them on their past couple of albums. This one reminds me of the old Bone Thugs but with a more updated sound. I love it and any one who hasn't heard them entire album needs to go pick it up soon! Love my boyz!!!!
+4275,2,One of the better swords and sandals movies,"I saw this as one of the movies on my 50 pack of warrior movies. It is all swords and sandals flicks. I was pleasantly surprised at this one. It had great scenery and color. It definitely needs a restoration though, it was not a crisp clear picture but I could still see the potential. The scenes inside the pyramid going through secret passages was pretty cool. Very reminiscent of the Indiana Jones movies during those scenes. I liked the plot and I thought the acting was fine, especially by Debra Paget. I think I'm better off with my version than purchasing the separate disc from Synegy. It doesn't sound like they remastered anything. I bet I have the same print on my 50 pack as this one. Too bad, if it were actually remastered and any cut out parts restored I would buy it."
+4276,2,GW1500a-1av,"Overall, I like the watch. First, it's not as big as some of these other reviews claim, it is actually relatively small for a g-shock, so keep that in mind. The atomic update works well on the east coast, so no worries there (also dont have to keep it near window at night or anything like that.) Tough as nails, but that's to be expected (I slammed it on a door first day I was wearing it...would have shattered my ecodrive.) CONS: the lume's on the hands are not great, and lose their glow in approximately 5-10 minutes, digi dial is slightly small, but not so that you cant read it easily. Otherwise, great g-shock at reasonable price. Recommend."
+4277,2,It works!,I've been taking this daily for several years at my doctor's suggestion. No more acid reflux and the pain associated with it! I use Amazon's Subscribe and Save and get Prilosec for a great price + no shipping charges.
+4278,2,Great movie,I love reading or viewing programs related to tarantulas. This movie gives you pretty good information on tarantulas. I've watched it atleast 10 times.
+4279,1,The first (and hopefully last) Disney let-down,"Well, even the best have to fall someday, and Disney managed it with the release of Flubber. Robin Williams, who isn't greatly entertaining at the best of times, is actually quite acceptable in this film. However the general jist of the story, and the comedy, and the adventure, and the dialogue ...etc etc has all been done better before. The story follows a professor (Robin Williams) and his discovery of an exciting new elastic material - technically known as Flubber - though he is hunted down by corporate businesses, whilst his absent-mindedness severely puts his love plans on hold. Predictable, dull and a genuine failure of a film. The 1967 original is much better.Looking for good family entertainment? Go buy Free Willy"
+4280,1,This is kid's stuff!!,"The action is for kids 10 and under!!!It got pretty boring half-way. It's just a waste of my money that could have spend in some more entertaining way. But if you are a kid, you will love this movie!"
+4281,2,So funny and so real,This book kept me laughing for hours. It made me think back to my college days and kept reminding of people I knew. I loved reading it!
+4282,1,I love rock & roll; hits of the '50s,"This is, by far, the worst CD I have ever heard. I grew up in the '50s and know that these are not the original artists who are listed. Whoever is pretending to imitate them is not even close. The musicianship and recording qualities are horrible; if the songs had been done well by other musicians, it would not be quite such a disappointment!"
+4283,2,Delicious!!,"It is such a shame that even after winning a golden globe award, they cancelled this promising show. We can only hope that another network will pick up Moonlight for another season. The entire cast ROCKS!!!"
+4284,1,Need a REFUND,"I am buying another one, because the one I received was bent, not straight. I am waiting for paperwork from until I can request my money back for the purchase. I will call my credit card company to stop payment also. I wasted over seventy dollars and received a bent track."
+4285,2,Solid Product,"I haven't had a chance to use the tension bar yet, but it does fit my wife's bicycle and seems like a solid product."
+4286,1,inoperative,"It arrived broken. I returned it, and I still haven't received a refund. I will not order any reconditioned tools through Amazon.com."
+4287,1,Masterpiece of trash...,"(...) With Burzum, I don't have too much to say. Varg Vikernes obvioulsy has some level of musical talent. I don't dispute that, musically, this album is up there with the other Norwegian Black Metal bands (I STILL think Emperor were the best musicians), full of aggression and mixing it with odd passages of beauty inspired by Norwegian folk and history. What ruins it is Vikernes' voice. Whereas Ihsahn shifts from operatic to evil screaming, and Attila Csihar sounds like he's gargling glass, (both of which are perfect for black metal) Varg's screaming vocals sound like a dying dog barking desperately to get attention before it expires. It's not singing, it's not even screaming, it's just a bunch of violent barks closer to death metal than black metal. Hate the man, not the music...a good statement, except that the man destroys the music, and thus turns what is a good black metal album into trash (in my ears anyway). (...)"
+4288,1,What happened to the sound? (Updated),"Like the other reviewers, I love Ormandy's performance and would give it five stars, were it not compromised by the remastered sound, which has an artificial sounding ""reverb"" I don't recall hearing in past releases. It sabotages this release, and I wouldn't buy it for that reason. Too bad since the original Philadelphia sound was magnificent.Updated 22 December 2011: Since I reviewed that C, I l've listened to the same (presumably) recording on another, 2009 CD release on Sony Classics to compare. I've gone back and forth several times and I'll swear I hear a distinctly better sound on the newer release, compared to this one. Instruments sound more forward and clearer and the former reverb is gone, or is much less. FOR THAT VERSION (Sony B0000027BD) I ENTHUSIASTICALLY GIVE 5 STARS! I'm so happy I can now recommend this version to all my friends! (-:"
+4289,1,Great character; terrible toy,"My 2.75 year old loves Mater! However, he has had two of these, and BOTH had their front wheels fall off within an hour of play.Terrific character, but a terrible toy.Sorry, Pixar--but you licensed this toy to the wrong manufacturer.So much for branding, huh."
+4290,1,kind of misleading,"The amazon description was:leatherCasual fashion belt that moves with you and conforms to the waistExpands approximately 1"" without extra tabs or attachmentsPadded leather tabs and loopSatin silver finished buckleWear with jeans or sportswearThe first Item ""Leather"" is misleading, the belt actually states ""Genuine Leather with Bonded Lacing made in china""So the only real leather part is the portion on both ends that buckle together, the mesh or majority of this beltis in fact not real leather at all. That would probably explain other reviewers comments about longevity and stretching!Had I known it was primarily bonded I would have chosen something else."
+4291,2,Love this movie!,This is a great musical for the whole family! Timeless classic that I've been watching since I was a kid.
+4292,1,stealth ati 9250,I bought this card a few years ago thinking it would dramatically improve my PC games. UH no it doesn't. It seems to have problems with even games made 6 years ago. Pay the extra money and get a better card.
+4293,1,Would have been nice IF IT SUPPORTED DVD-VCR COMBO UNITS.,I read through the reviews and was very enthusiastic so I bought this remote. I began programming it and was very pleased with the results until I tried to get the code for my almost-new Samsung DVD-VCR combo unit. The manual had no codes at all for that category! I contacted Sony's support via Web Chat and they DO NOT support DVD-VCR combo units. BEWARE if you are purchasing this and have this need (or might in the future). It blows my mind why they don't support these. This is going back to the store and I'll switch back to the One For All brand that I have had in the past. I liked the layout and buttons a bit better on the Sony but it doesn't matter at this point. Good luck!
+4294,1,Dosent work!!!,"I buy mine and make all the connection but dont give video, and one of the fan connector dont work, i live inthe Dominican Republic and for send it back i have to pay 60US in my case was a very bad deal."
+4295,2,A Perfect Fit,"This book is full of ideas,encouragement,and inspiration. It's directions are clear and easy to understand. While promoting creativity and personalization of your project, it gives you the basics needed for selecting fabric and style, measuring, cutting and sewing. I am not terribly skilled at my sewing machine, but with the help of this book, slipcovers are now in my repertoire."
+4296,2,most beautiful film,"After I saw this film, I liked to say that the last film I saw was in French and black and white. This film has all the wonders of both. In our age of vivid color and candid sex, this film is both erotic and subtle. Although throwing knife as phallic symbol does not suggest it, this film is sensual, not sexual. Vanessa Paradis and Daniel Auteil make an amazing pair. Her supermodel good looks and flippant sexuality makes her HOT the perfect foil for his calm, collected COOL as they go on a gallavanting tour of behind the big tent Europe. This is a film for clever sentamentalists and cynics alike. Sure, the film takes an ""other half"" attitude to love, but it also makes it plainly clear that love is altogether fragile, and cannot hold."
+4297,2,childhood nostalgia,"One of my all-time favorite movies from childhood. I still ejoy it as an adult and the music is more of an interest to me now, especially now that I have small children. Pure Imagination is the best song on the CD. My wife hates the movie (oompa loompas?), so I can at least play the movie in my head when I'm in the car alone..."
+4298,2,"Excellent, thoughtful, reasoned, important","Bennett has produced an important book, one that should be widely read and discussed. His writing is balanced and thoughtful, his conclusions are reasonable. His condemnation of Pres. Clinton's actions is difficult to refute and impossible to ignore. The book is not only an indictment against the Clinton administration but a call to action for Americans of all political persuasions to take back control of their republic. This book is most strongly recommended."
+4299,1,Not for Everyone,"I think Bertram's book needs to be more explanatory in nature for the maths and physics, not everybody has the mathematical and physics background to read the book, especially for engineers. I have written somewhere else that unless you have solid understanding in undergraduate and graduate engineering electromagnetic theory, this book is very hard to understand. It is a killer. Since I have not understood it, I give this book low rating. But I bet that as I understand the book better, the book rating will go up."
+4300,2,A good close shave.,This is a quality product and produces a nice close shave. It is also rated high in Consumer Reports.I would purchase it again.
+4301,2,STARRY NIGHT,STARRY NIGHT is amazingly magical. It resonated to the artist in all of us who have struggled with art all of our lives and have not been recognized in our lifetimes. It gives hope. Abbott Alexander's fanciful portrayal of Vincent is wonderful -- you can't keep your eyes off of him. He is intensely charismatic. I bought many copies to send to family back home -- as this is a must see for all families to watch together -- and there are not many films out there like that.
+4302,1,You can't get something for near nothing,"I just purchased this item at Target. CD player does not work. I came on line to see if other sources had the item and if the price would be better, before returning it to Target. Thank goodness I came on line. It appears GE better get back to the drawing board since the cd player seems to be faulty and the weather station has so much static, etc, etc, etc. The undercounter radio/cd system for sale price of $69.95 seemed like a good idea at the time. Thank you all who gave me ""heads up"". Tomorrow, another trip to Target to get my money back."
+4303,2,Well written short story.,I finished this book in about 2 hours. It was very well written and now I can't write a longer review because I must go read the rest of Kealan Patrick Burke's books.
+4304,1,a big dud,"The device worked fine until I tried to load the software, which would not install. I tried to contact tech support, they were worthless. There was a language barrier that took several minuets to over come. When that bridge was crossed she told me to ""up grade"" my OS and basically told me my computer was broken which it is not. I took it back the next day. I do not believe the tech person I spoke to has any advanced knowledge of computers based on our conversation. Horrible tech support and no real solutions offered"
+4305,1,Not a good product!,"Without a doubt, I have spent more time un-jamming this nail gun then I have spent using it. I have had it since Dec. 2010 and cuss it out every time I use it. Most often it is not worth the trouble and I use regular nails and a hammer. The name ""Arrow"" has come to mean poor quality to me."
+4306,1,bad service,My watch stopped and the company didn't provide an international warranty. the customer said the watch has to be shipped back to the company and i have to cover the cost both ways. very bad service.
+4307,1,"""Worst Game Ever Created"" Gamespot Review","The game was the winner of number 1 spot on Gamespot's 10 worst game list. I saw all review videos on multiple sights, the game is so awful YOU CAN DRIVE THROUGH ANYTHING, and bridges you go under, you fall and and keep driving and come out the other side and do things like drive 100 miles an hour on a full horizontal angle of a mountain! The only reason some one should buy this is to laugh non stop at how bad it is."
+4308,2,Best handheld vaccume,Product works great! It is very powerful and has a long cord which can come in handy when cleanin gthe stairs or the car in the garage. I can not think of anything to change about this vacuum
+4309,2,Dreamies by Bill Holt,"I am just amazed at the fact that this music has been made available on CD. The Vinyl album is very rare and hard to get. This production is clearer than any previous version; I am hearing all kinds of sounds that I never heard before.Dreamies sounds like an early lost John Lennon album. The story behind the composer is fascinating in the sense that he was purely an amateur and did the whole thing by himself.The album is both sad and beautiful at the same time. It truly captures an era and should be taken seriously, especially at this turbulent time that we live in. It has had a profound effect on me and I know that it would have a similar effect on most others if they were to take the time to listen to it."
+4310,2,Fascinating Candidate for Shakespeare,"This book proposes Henry Neville as Shakespeare. It is well researched and offers interesting new information in support of its thesis. I also recommend ""Sweet Swan of Avon,"" by Robin Williams. She proposes Mary Sidney Herbert, and much of the evidence discussed in both books could apply to either candidate, as they were related and knew each other.Anyone interested in the Authorship Question would enjoy this book!"
+4311,2,Rather Nice,"After listening to this a few times it's probably TI's most generic/trash album ever released. Tracks like ""You Know What it Is, Da Dopeman, Watch What You Say to Me, Show it to Me"" and so many others show no real skill and sound like the same street music everyone else sings.Some songs are very strong, and the Act 1 & 2 skits are excellent. Otherwise skip this one and head on to Paper Trail, it's a much better album both skill and content wise."
+4312,2,articulately ugly,"This music well expresses ugliness.The word 'psychotic', seems to suit the sound of many of the tracks.There is no denying that most people would dislike the severity of this cd.The chaos is applied, however, with great detail (using chorus as the main, with countless traditional + classical instruments).'Atonal' is the classical term for the absense of key signature - The notes are all over place.The singing is especially akward sounding.The links this music has to Russian folklore are very confusing, but well explained in the (excellent) liner notes.This music's sound though, is like 20th century Russian classical."
+4313,2,Unique rapid-set alarm,"This watch allows you to set a 3, 5, 10, 15, 20, or 30 minute alarm with respectively 1,2,3,4, or 5 clicks of one button. You can set it while in conversation to remind yourself to do something, you can set it while cooking as an extra alarm, you can set it while driving, you can set it so fast that, if you are a busy person like myself, you will quickly become dependent on it.I have found no other watch that has this feature, and I have searched vigorously because the watch is not beautiful, and not unusually durable, so until Casio wakes up to the utility of this feature for the busy person, or the forgetful person, I have to put up with it's appearance for the benefit of its utility, which is, for all it's lowly look, extraordinary."
+4314,2,Very Fun,"Aerofighter Assault is a really nice aircraft simulator and has pretty good graphics for an n64 game. Though the weapons are sort of unrealistic (ninja stars?), the gameplay and individual feel and control of each plane more than makes up for it. I personally prefer the fx plane, it has a really powerful special and is very maneuverable. The countinuous pilot talk does get a little annoying after a while and, for some reason, the storyline gameplay does not go by difficulty (or a least for me....It took me only 1 try to comeplete the 6th mission while it took me more 5 tries for the 3rd mission). Overall this game is great and will have you captivated for hours."
+4315,2,American Holistic Association Guide & The Winkle Cure,These books were required reading in my Holistic practice. I found both these books very informative. I put to practice some information found in the Wrinkle Cure book and have been getting comments that I now look 40 when in actuallity I am 62. I have been able to pass this information onto some of my patients and they are trying it on themselves. The American Holistic Association Guide reinforced some of the teachings that I had just finished in getting my degree in the Holistic Method of healing. Both books were very interesting.
+4316,1,1 Hour was not Enough,"So many plotholes I dare not go into them here. This being 1 hour in length there were so many scenes that raised questions which were never answered. While Corbin Bernson stole the scenes by nailing down his seedy lawyer character in the first half hour, the film then falls apart as it abruptly tries to become horrific but so many unecesary scenes are added from out of nowhere with no resolution. It seems as though this was meant to have been at least 100 minutes, but scenes were deleted resulting in a film which could have been decent, but instead turns out to be a waste of time."
+4317,2,I just love it.,"The Sound quality and sensitivity are great. When it was new It was unbelievable. It did a fantastic job of filtering out car noise. The sound quality has decayed a bit since first purchase but still better than most. Battery life could be better. I've since learned to turn it off when I know I'm not going to use it for a while. The earpiece is easy to lose if you put the thing in your pocket. Knowing what I know now I would still buy this one. It's reliable, pretty clear and well constructed except the earpiece."
+4318,2,A helpful resource,I see more and more children facing this problem. This book focuses on the loneliness a child might feel in this situation. The character is very ashamed and is teased about his father's incarceration. The books help children to not take on the shame of the parent's crime;it is appropriate and unjudgemental. It is a helpful tool to meet the needs of a suffering child.
+4319,1,Good for a Laugh,"The book starts off with a detailed lesson of the origin of blood types. The author used that to basically say we should eat what our ancestors ate, or at least food in the same groups. It shocked me to hear that, according to this book, Asians are consuming the wrong foods for their blood type. Most people I have seen from China and Japan are fit and healthy. The foods the book said should irritate my stomach don't and vice versa."
+4320,1,Broke on first use...,"I've used chain cleaners before, so I was very disappointed when it broke during its first use. It does thoroughly clean the chain, but the clips that hold the lid in place are 'WAY too tight. If you buy one, you may want to relax the wire clips before use. I will replace it with Nashbar's chain cleaner.[...]"
+4321,1,Had a few good point BUT.....,"Overall, I think the point of this book was well thought out, I just have a hard time believing it could be put into practice anywhere in the 'real' world. A lot of things are good ideas, however, it just wouldn't work in a 'real' work environment. To me, this book focuses more on 'carrers' than the 'jobs' of life. Which is good, to an extent.I had to read this for my management class and a lot of my classmates (about 90%) shared my dislikes."
+4322,2,Really loved it!,Beautiful effects; really cool story line. The animators outdid themselves - and the actors voicing the parts are awesome! Highly recommend.
+4323,2,great product,This product is great! I'm a beginner at calligraphy and this looked like a good set to start with. Nibs are great and ink comes out nice and smooth. May leak on the back of the nib a little and bleed through the paper but not much. The practice paper is awesome and the instruction booklet is nice. Great product!!! :)
+4324,2,TONY KUBEK ALSO HOMERS IN THIS BOOK,"THIS IS ABOUT THE RECORD BREAKING SEASON OF ROGER MARIS. TONY KUBEK DOES A GREAT JOB DESCRIBING WHAT TOOK PLACE DURING THAT EXCITING SEASON OF 1961. ALOT OF DETAIL IS DEDICATED TO THE HOMERUN CHASE BUT IT ALSO COVERS MARIS'S RELATIONSHIP WITH MANTLE, THE PRESS AND OTHER PLAYERS. THIS IS A MUST READ FOR ALL YANKEE AND BASEBALL FANS. VERY RECOMMENDED."
+4325,1,I could not finish it!,"Oh wow is this a bad book. The main character Olivia is so unlikable I did not care what happened to her.She is nasty and rude! The story line on th jacket of the book sounded good. With such unlikable characters,including Olivia's dead mother who cares!!!!"
+4326,1,Nipple covers,I was looking for something to offer more modesty when wearing a swimsuit and thought these would help. They are OK but not quite what I was looking for because the folds in the edges show through the fabric.
+4327,2,Great,"As a volunteer chaplain in Santa Clara County, the inmates request it frequently and it is highly prized. Unfortunately, it appears to be out of print."
+4328,1,BUYER BEWARE!!!!,The silver connecter that is on the cigerette plug in pushes in and will not connect. the cord is VERY THIN and does not put out much heat at all and broke the second time I used it. would not ever blow hard enough to defrost a window. Piece of Junk
+4329,2,Where is it???,"I LOVE this shampoo. When it disappeared from stores, I was still able to find it here. Where is it now??? It works so great on my dry hair - it's hard to find a good replacement. I hope it returns soon!!"
+4330,2,Good,"This is a good album from Australian Band, ""The Whitlams"". The singles ""Thank You (For Loving Me At My Worst)"" and ""Chunky, Chunky Air Guitar"" are good songs. ""Music Fan from Australia"" dosen't know what he/she is talking about."
+4331,2,Great Book!!!,I always enjoy reading Victoria Christopher Murray's books but this one kept my attention the whole way through.
+4332,2,RISE AND FALL OF AN ICON,"If you're a boxing fan, and are interested in the rise and fall of one who could perhaps have been ""the greatest of all time,"" then this DVD set is for you. This is a tragedy of Homeric proportion, complete with all of the drama, intrigue, and travails of a Puccini opera."
+4333,1,Second part of the book is still a mystery,"How can one review a book half of which is difficult to follow?Perhaps the book should be renamed to ""Getting Used to Java Syntax"". The basic language elements are reasonably well presented. However, the second part of the book, which attempts to describe more advanced concepts, does not impart much understanding. I am still mystified by Exceptions and Multithreading."
+4334,1,Theyre Just Mynocks Chew,"Star Wars, more like Star bores! These movies are the pits, theyre banthor fodder. If i had it my way id take all the copies of all the movies, and throw them into a cave with a Wampa. Luke...a hero, yah right! His metaclorian count is like not even half of what his fathers was! Not to mention Emporor palpitine what a jerk...he looks like my grandmother...real scary. Im gunna move to the dagoba system if i hear anymore about this film. Anyone who likes star wars is a dork. There mothers didnt love them, their fathers were alcholics, and there sisters did DEATH STICKS!... Once i put the movie on i turned it off in less than 12 parcects... see you on the kessel run!"
+4335,1,I Don't Get It,"Sorry folks. The guy is dead I know. I read all the reviews thinking this was going to be one to add to the CD collection.. and I was truly disappointed. I appreciate great ballads, screaming,wailing, depths of despair stuff.. but, this guy's voice did nothing for me....It was irritating in fact.The tracks.. one after another are moaning, groaning, wailing, monotone, relentlessly boring and morose.Sorry but this was a waste of money built on a great amount of hype, and rather than feel a grand catharsis after listening to it, I almost opened a vein myself."
+4336,2,Great reference book!,This book is a must have for any landscape horticulture student!Steve Still has retired from OSU but is now director of the Perennial Plant Association.
+4337,2,Combat - Complete Series,DVD's started off great. Good picture quality for an older show. The only problem so far is Disc two of the second half of the first season. The disc appeared to have a crack which was confirmed when i yook it out of the jewel case. Hopefuuly the rest of series is ok
+4338,1,disappointment,"After the rise in quality with each successive album(Yes, I did like Holy Smoke!)from ...World to the brilliant Cascade,this EP was a huge disappointment!The remakes are a desecration of the originals. Peter Murphy has long been one of my favorite artists.I await the next release with trepidation."
+4339,1,Worst Unit ever.,"Hi, I bought this unit 6 months ago and the first one was defective right out of the box. That's when i should've asked for my money back. Instead I allowed them to exchange it and now 6 months later the unit is dead. I've treated it with very good care and the buttons still managed to get stuck. Please save your money and buy ANYTHING else."
+4340,1,Stopped working after 3rd use....,"I was really excited when I bought the monitor. The look and the light level features made me purchace it. BUT that's not as important if the monitor doesn't work. It actually scared the crap out of me b/c the receiver all of a sudden just gave out a loud constant static, which happens if the monitor is off. I knew that the monitor turned off, but I wasn't expecting it to stop working. IT JUST STOPPED WORKING after the 3rd use. I still have hope and gonna exchange it tomorrow. Maybe it's just this one that's defective. I haven't had any interference problem w/ it the 3 times I was using it."
+4341,1,Mildly Ripped Off,"This book is a rip-off. The actual Gospel of Thomas could have fit into a 10 page manuscript, but was instead chopped into little sentences in order for this publisher to rake in the dough. The gospel itself is interesting but the commentary is only sparsely enlightening. It helps to have some context for a few of the more esoteric of Jesus' sayings. But the author's notes are often overly simplistic, and their tone is pedantic. I felt talked down to as an informed reader. Don't waster your $17. Find the gospels online and let them do the talking."
+4342,1,"Oh my, is it just me?","I really had high expectations for this album, and I really wanted to like it. After a listen to the full disk, all I can say is if McDonalds made music, this is what it would sound like.The trademark Steely Dan sound is certainly there, and the performances and production are top notch. But to me, these are just throwaways, filler tracks that have little passion or adventure, and probably wouldn't even make it on an earlier album.I guess it's true that all good things eventually come to an end. RIP Steely Dan."
+4343,1,Maybe Next Time!,"Patti continues to scream and whine her way through songs. Diane Warren songs were not meant to be song in this fashion. Yes this is Patti trademark, but it is time to show us something new. Sometimes less is better. ""Call me gone"" is how you can discribe this one time fan of her's."
+4344,1,LOL!,The Kelly Family have never been anything more than an over-rated... over-hyped pile of horse-squeeze! A band like this could only go over well in cheesy Europe.
+4345,2,relaxing,"A good selection of relaxing but up-beat toons. As you listen to the music, time almost stands still until you realized about a hour just flew by and your grabing for the controls to listen to the CD again."
+4346,1,Slow and plodding,"The premise was an interesting one, the delivery was long and slow. The life and impact on the family at a personal level are the main thrust of the novel.Not my cup of tea."
+4347,1,Not Good,"Oakenfold has always thrived on house and deep trance and everything in between. The appropriate title of this album should be ""Voyage Into Goa"" because that's precisely what this cd is. I don't know why he released this cd. He never plays goa live, and after listening to this cd you will find out why he doesn't.The only saving graces this cd has are that ""Trancemission"", ""Sly-ed"", and ""Hallucinogen"". These tunes are ok on their own, but since they are after all Goa tracks, they all sound pretty much the same."
+4348,2,Yet another fine Japanese Beading book,"I wish there were more of these books. It's so hard to find japanese beading books here in the US. *hint hinT Amazon!!*Having been a beader for over 20 years, It's always wonderful to see how different people over the world approach beading. This book is a wonderful example of the uniqueness you will find in Japanese beading books.The basics to know, is that all the patterns assume you are using two needles to pass the two ends of the thread through, and start at the star, end at the moon. If you need written out instructions, these books arn't for you. Once you take the time to figure out the diagrams, it will all ""click"" and you're ready to go.This one has some beautiful crystal balls/pendants, and a nice version of the puffy crystal heart that is so popular. That pattern alone is worth the book."
+4349,1,Depressing and repetitive,"I have read many of Danielle Steel's novels and this is one of my least favorites. This story is about a woman named Alex who is diagnosed with breast cancer. Although she is able to cope with the difficult road ahead of her, her husband of more than 15 years cannot and is at times very cruel to her. I found it hard to believe that they could be so in love before the diagnosis and then he just gives up on their marriage. The ending was extremely disappointing as well. If you are looking for a more worthwhlie Steel novel, try Fine Things, Zoya, Wings, or Silent Honor."
+4350,2,"""lost its compost"" for a while but slowly getting back to nature","Somehow, the Mother became more like something else... Sunset? I dunno, but it really lost its way from the down-to-earth, get-down-in-the-dirt, raise-chickens-in-your-backyard-&-fertilize-with-the-rest viewpoint.I miss the newsprint, non-glossy paper, the substantive articles for people who really are living off the land, not cruising over it in SUV's and entertaining themselves with dreams of organic lavender.That said, it seems to be coming around the corner to its old self again, but it's a long, slow, return I think. I am heartened by the direction it is taking, and subscribe once more to hope it'll keep going that way. I mean, just the glossy paper alone makes it suspect amongst my crew! I'll hide it when the purists come, and hope it keeps getting back to the Earth."
+4351,1,Watch the Packaging - 4 to an envelope,"What I was expecting were individually wrapped tea bags. They come 4 to an envelope, so once you open it the others are exposed to the air. They definitely can not be used in a public setting where no one knows who originally opened it or how long it has been open. I suppose they would be good for batch brewing at home."
+4352,2,"4 non blondes--woulda, shoulda, coulda","This was possibly one of the best groups to play in the 90s. Unfortunately, they broke up before they produce their second album. If only they would magically appear on stage again, I'm sure that the world would accept them back in the spotlight of the music industry. Maybe we'll all be blessed that one day they will get back together again and grace our ears with their music."
+4353,2,It really works!,"I walk my dog every day and have carried Halt for about one year. Until today I never had to use it. Today a rotweiller and two other larger dogs came after my dog and me. They were not snarling but they were not being friendly either. When they did not respond to me shouting ""no"" I pulled out my Halt and sprayed all three in the face. All three of them immediatly turned around and ran back the way they had come. I was amazed at how well and how quick Halt worked. I will never walk my dog without Halt in my back pocket."
+4354,1,zone alarm fails again,"today ZoneAlarm renew failed for 18 tries , ZA refuses to have phone support the ultimate in tech service abdication. Za also failed to run once downloaded and can not find a manger or tech person to bother to address. the issue . They actually would like to charge us to answer tech questions even though they know they are having server failures.This once responsive comapany has joined the Big Oil Enron ranks in refusing to address customer needs."
+4355,1,Battery lasts less than 2 hours,I've only had this dvd player for six months. The battery pack is not dependable. I have completely de-charged and recharged the battery. The most time I can get is 1 hour 43 minutes playing time. Not long enough to view most movies. I would not recommend this product.
+4356,2,"Love, Love, Love People!","It's funny, my husband subscribes to the newspaper, I subscribe to People! LOLI enjoy that the stories are more what I want to read about and less about the world at large.I actually can't wait for the mail to come on Fridays. :)A great read!Oh, and gotta love those crosswords!!!"
+4357,1,Three strikes for poor design,"We have had three of these machines, with great hopes for each. The first was the older model with no vent holes. The motor on that one died in short order. The second and third units were the newer models with the improved bowl - a good example of listening to the customer. Unfortunately the electric connection from the heating element to the base is very poorly designed and of inadequate quality. On both the second and third units the plastic terminal covers broke, rendering the heating element useless. Considering that this is Cuisinart, that we bought them all through Williams-Sonoma, and the amount of negative feedback I am (now) seeing, it seems that Cuisinart really needs to go back to the drawing board."
+4358,1,Um...This does not look good !,"Read the comic book series and pass this tepid release from 20th Century Fox. This, along with ""Spiderman"" (2002), are fine examples of why big-budget Hollywood should step aside and let the comics speak for themselves."
+4359,2,Best Lotion EVER!!,I use this on a daily basis and it BY FAR is the best lotion I have ever used. I would HIGHLY recommend it to anyone.
+4360,2,A Lifetime on the Riverbank,"I, too, was introduced to Wind in the Willows at a very early age - around 4 - by my grandmother who read it to me over one long summer. From that summer on I understood the power and beauty of words. I loved ""the taste"" of all the big words in that book and found it so much fun to learn them. Forget all American theories of reading which simplify everything into pablum. Very young kids can deal with these ""complex-branching"" sentences and the sophisticated vocabulary, plot and character development. After 50 years of reading and teaching literature my copy of Wind in the Willows illustrated by Arthur Rackham is my treasure. I believe that Rackham was nearly completely paralyzed during the last year when he made these wonderful illustrations. A must for every child! ... and every parent who missed the experience!"
+4361,2,"Great movie, but being Region A Blu-ray it won't play in Australia","A great movie, however if you purchase theThe Princess Bride [Blu-ray] (Region A) from Amazon.com, you will find you won't be able to play it in Australian players (Region B) unless you have a region free player!Don't forget to read the ""Product Details"" section before you hit the checkout on any disk; because if you've ordered various Blu-ray disks; it's warning message about your order containing a ""Region A"" disk does not clarify which disk this is so you can remove it."
+4362,1,Apparently shoved out to market half-finished.,"Very glitchy -- crashes even with patch available online. Lot's of options that appears to be meaningless to game play -- hard to say for sure. User interface is difficult, which is too bad, since I was hoping my little boys would enjoy this. I finally trudged through the bad UI, the lack of instructions, etc, and finished a ""project"", only to be given no score, no congratulations, no acknowledgment that the goals were successfully completed. I think the developers (Bold Games) ran out of money, and just pushed the product out the door."
+4363,1,Terrible Trimmer!,[Review from my husband:] The attachments are cheap and very difficult to attach/remove. Each time ended with me having to attach the adjustable guard while it was separated in two pieces. But even worse was that a few teeth on the blade broke off (and I bought this trimmer less than a month ago). I had used a Conair trimmer for the past 6 years and decided to try out a Wahl because it received better reviews. But after this experience I will be going back to Conair.
+4364,1,Awful,"Of course, this is my opinion, take it or leave it. This is one album I really don't like. It is very one-dimensional. It sounds to me as if there is one song on this album arranged 11 times. All the tempos, drumming style, and singing are very similar from song to song, with little or nothing to differentiate them. I must have listened to this album about 20 times now, trying to capture hidden nuances, but I still have not found any. Very disappointing."
+4365,2,hernia belt,"the hernia belt does work . I am on my third day but there are adjustments , you will have too address and in my case some major modifications. one of the reviews suggested to buy on the large side and I did . I am 41"" on the fence between med and large so on the recomendation I chose the large. now I am forced to take about 4"" out of the belt"
+4366,1,Scottish Pub Band Poor CD,"Clouds were a Scottish Pub band that came down to London around1966 in search of a recording deal. They were decent musicianslive, but poor song writers. This CD is their first and lastalbums packaged together. Both of these albums are pretty shaky.I would NOT recommend them. Some of the reviews offered here arecompletely laughable. Trying to make Clouds out to be some sortof great band. They are obviously submitted by relatives andformer employees. Hey I saw Clouds three times and they were justan enjoyable Scottish Pub band PERIOD!"
+4367,2,Love it!,I make bento lunches for my kids and this cutter really helps a lot. The size is perfect! Thank you..
+4368,2,Interesting First Book,"I think this is an interesting debut novel. Loved the concept of having a lead character as a forensic psychologist that is addicted to cocaine, strippers and alcohol. It was a great concept to start a series. I'm definitely going to be reading the sequel to this book. I found it interesting how Mr. Ablow led you down the garden path before taking a sharp turn into moral ground at the end. What would you do? Turn in someone you love because you have to due to your job or help them and break the law? I just found the whole issue fascinating and can't wait to see how it all plays out in book two. I would highly recommend this book."
+4369,1,"Not quite, there yet...","Close, but ... When this device shows color, and can run PIM applications, let me know and I will buy one. Many of the books and magazines I read contain color photos."

+4371,1,Save your money,"Let me come straight to the point. This stuff is garbage. Please save your hard earned cash, and purchase something different. This does nothing to remove or repair scratches. If you want to waste 10 dollars, you can rip up a 10 dollar bill and flush it down the toilet. If I could rate this item as zero stars, then I would."
+4372,1,it was cracked and flat inside,"The wok had cracks and the inside has a flat bottom, what kind of wok is that. IT GOT RETURNED!"
+4373,2,Best Book Ever!,"This is my favorite book ever, not only because it is hilarious and had me crying from laughter at severel diffrent points, but how complete it is. This book had every thing I like, like humor and baseball, and even had a really sad part at the end. I couldn't tell if my tears were coming from laughter of sadness. Overall this book is awesome, and i have read it 3 times in the last 2 weeks."
+4374,2,"Awesome Tool! Two Dogs and 4 Cats LOVE it, as do I.","Wow, we chose the border collie shepherd mix as the first guinea pig. Not only did she enjoy it while we were combing her with it (once she smelled it good) but she also felt quite frisky afterwards! Followed by a long peaceful nap. One cat likes it, the other three love it. I would buy another one and I would certainly buy from Entirely Pets Amazon store again! Great transaction and prompt processing."
+4375,2,Item as billed,"Item works as advertised. it's not real good in low light, so as a security camera it would not be good unless lights are on at all times. We use it as a pet monitor to see if our cats are being ""naughty""Picture quality good, download of pictures easy."
+4376,1,Stupid.,"There's only two songs that are tight, they are ""Still Fly"" and ""Oh Yeah!"" I burned this from a friend, and I'm glad I didn't waste my money on this garbage."
+4377,2,Blocks for creative and energetic,"These blocks are indestructible and well made. Our 3 and 2 yr old love building with them. I see them lasting forever, that's how well made they are. The only draw back is that we wish there were more blocks to the set!"
+4378,1,Horrible waste of money,"My son received this as a present for Christmas, and I can't imagine anyone buying this after seeing the already written reviews. DO NOT waste your money. We have not had 1 picture we could use or even see out of this thing. For the money, I don't expect much, but I would have thought we could at least see the images in the photo...but nope!Don't waste your money."
+4379,2,"I'm no R&B fan, but you gotta hear this!!","I'm a major Talking Heads fan and some years ago I heard these guys do the final track featuring 'Once in a Lifetime' and had to get it. To my pleasant surprise I really enjoyed most of the CD. The vocals are so smooth you too will take notice! A sample of the intro of tracks won't do the CD justice as many need to build a bit. It also wouldn't hurt to be somewhat spritual as many songs reference the faith, but don't let the 'Christian R&B' thing bug you. This is just good music."
+4380,1,DO YOU NEED TO BE A CLASSICAL AFFICIONADO TO LIKE THIS ONE?,I'M AFRAID I DEDFENITELY DO NOT LIKE THIS CD-IT'S VERYBORING TO ME. I LOVE ALL PIANO AND ORCHESTRA MUSIC BUTI'M AFRAID THIS IS THE WORST I HAD TO PUT UP WITH. SORRY-I JUST DID NOT FIND ANY REDEMEEING QUALATIES IN THIS ONE.
+4381,2,Creates great characters,"I am an antiques dealer, and there are so few books written about the peculiar characters in the antiques business. Here is the best one. Highly recommended if you are part of the antiques world."
+4382,2,great product.,"this is an amazing product. the only annoying thing is, you cannot disassemble it back to it's original packaging... this is really not nice..."
+4383,2,loved the ending,"This book was slow in the beginning and I wasn't sure it would be good. But I was interested in seeing how the book would end, can't just quit half way through. I enjoyed how it all came together with the plot and the characters. I would recommend the book."
+4384,1,Not a classic!,"Sadly, this book has not become a classic but on the contrary has aged prematurely.The ideas presented are nothing new anymore and the solutions suggested are now themselves subject to founded criticism.Current ecological or health issues had not been foreseen by the authors and what appeared visionary ten years ago is now incomplete, repetitious and almost bland.Therefore, it would difficult to recommend anyone to invest time and money in reading this book in 2009 or later."
+4385,2,Lucy show,"Lucy is funny and fun to watch, I wish more sitcoms were made like this, I will buy more shows and movies from Amazon"
+4386,1,It works...,"My expectation w/ it is not that high. So, I like it. Highly recommend to anyone who does not want to spend $$$$ to get high-end to do simple job - charging iPod from outlet."
+4387,1,You must be kidding,"You must be kidding. This is a piece of garbage. And an editors choice yet, have you lost your mind???"
+4388,1,Too big,"I got these ear buds because others that I have tried don't stay in. The problem with these however, is that they're way too big for my ears. the bud itself is too big so I can't even get that part in my ear let alone the extended ""twist-to-fit"" pad. I had high hopes for these buds but I guess I'll have to keep searching for a small pair."
+4389,2,Post-ROTJ at its best....,"Heir to the Empire is a great book. Timothy Zhan captivates the reader with a story that is exciting and enjoyable throughout the entire book. Zhan is an author whose books is of outstanding quality. Heir to the Empire is a must read for Star Wars fans. And, if you do you read it, you'll be propelled to finish the cycle. Read it for yourself."
+4390,1,Andrea Bocelli - Amore,"I got the CD as a birthday gift. When my wife tried to listen, she found the tape scratched and unusable."
+4391,2,The best investment we made so far!,"This playmat is the best! I can lay my 3 month old on it and she just giggles and coos. She loves grabbing the toys and looking at herself in the mirror. The music isn't that great, but everything is awesome! I highly recommend this toy and it is so easy to take on the road with you."
+4392,1,NOW is going down the drain...,"I thought the NOW series was all about variety! Not anymore. I can only find 2, possibly 3 songs on this cd that I like. Now I realize that i don't have the same taste in music as everyone else, but come on aren't you people getting sick of Britney? And they keep putting the same kind of music on these CDs anymore. Now 8 was good and so was Now 4 but as for the rest..."
+4393,1,Author lost slander suit - snuck off to Mexico,"All you need to do to see the truth about Victor Gutierrez's malicious lies is go here, to Justia.com US Law [...]If the link doesn't work search Jackson v. Paramount Pictures Corp. (1998)Here you will find transcripts of Diane Dimond's radio interview naming Gutierrez as her source - source of a story the National Enquirer passed on. They also have the legal documents pertaining to this slander case, which MJ won to the tune of $2.7M. This ""credible author"" then snuck off to Mexico to avoid paying. The strange thing is that during this slander case Tom Sneddon intervened on Dimond's behalf, getting her excused. IMO she's been his puppet ever since.Anyone who belives a word of this book, or that comes out of Dimond's mouth, is allowing themselves to be used in a sickening game. I'm disgusted with Amazon for making this filth available."
+4394,2,This Dvd is God,I own the UltimateKylie and live in Sydny as well as fever. I really think this one is the best. It has such a theatrical flare to it. I just can't stop watching it. I wish kylie minogue would marry me. that would rule. ok buy it.
+4395,1,Not satisfied,"The photo handprint keepsake is a great idea- it just doesn't work out so well. The clay is very hard to put into the frame, it makes a mess, and the handprint just wouldn't stay in."
+4396,2,insufficient menus,"Turbotax was a great service, but I would like to be able to navigate with menus/tabs to a greater degree of specificity within the input pages itself. Writing the return often requires back-tracking to a page that you alread covered.To get to a particular prior page, I would often be forced to go through up to 5 or 6 prior pages, reading the question each time because turbotax highlighted the default which was not my previous choice. This was a colossal waste of time in an otherwise excellent product. It could easily be fixed in the 2006 software if turbotax 1) switched the defaults to the users' previously-inputted values (CompleteTax does this and it seems like an obvious thing to do) and/or made it easy to navigate to a prior page by giving a link to every input page when a user clicks a superior tab or link. This is what a good web-page does, and it would be very helpful if turbotax did the same."
+4397,2,Wonderful Book,"This is a fabulous book. If you embrace the philosophies of service learning and making a difference, and it is important to you that your child or classroom of children understand and become civically responsible individuals, then this book is a great tool. It is an outstanding story for children from kindergarten through fifth grade (although some explaining and reviewing will be necessary for the younger children). Even though it is a story/picture book, the older children will enjoy it as well."
+4398,2,"a fun, thought-provoking read","There are several moments that are more than worth the price of the book -- my favorite is the personality type inventory being presented to the Klan, with a close second being the final chapter, in which he just strolls into Bohemian Grove (secret: don Dockers and other preppy garb). Ronson is a genius. He's not strident or judgemental: he just tags along until his subjects reveal their essence. In times like ours, we need writers like him more than ever. Best nonfiction I've read in years."
+4399,1,Digital Fortress,"To many elements stretch believability. NSA computers connnected directly to the internet and sending and receiving external email; cell phones used inside NSA buildings. Other computer items and security items mentioned that just are not done that way.Compared to Tom Clancy novels, where the details are very beleivable and factual, this one did not have a good factual basis. It would seem that the author did not do his research."
+4400,2,very nice,i dont use my new pump yet but it is very nice and it seem perfect i cant wait to use it next springlike usual thanks amazon for the perfect service quick and at a nice price i dont give 5 stars because ijust dont try it
+4401,1,The beginning of the end,"This was where Twisted Metal went wrong. 989 Studios took the license from Incognito (formally Singletrac) and butchered Twisted Metal. If you want to play the good Twisted Metal games, buy 1 and 2. Don't forget to pre-order Black though, because Incognito is back in charge!"
+4402,2,Great for Brooklyn subway enthusiasts,"There is a lot of information in this book covering the period of mass transit in brooklyn from earliest trolleys to the BMT era and effectively ending with consolidation with the IND and IRT.This man single-handedly knows more about this subject than anyone living or dead, quite impressive.Only complain is that it does not quite meet academic standards, not that is was meant to, in that events such as bankruptcies are spoken without being put into a national context (as does Molloy in his excellently researched book on Rhode Island mass transit).Nevertheless, if you ever worked for the MTA in Brooklyn or knew a loved one who did or care about the greatest borough in the universe, there is something in this book for you. That said, the writing is a bit dense."
+4403,1,A musical nightmare,"People actually enjoy this stuff? I mean, for crying out loud, this kid was singing songs about being in love at the age of 12! How ridiculous is that? It's people like this that should be kept far, far away from a recording studio - he has no talent at all and nothing at all justifies his signing. Just look at the song titles and you know that you're in for something completely effortless, that any flunky with money and a recording studio could have recorded. There's no substance to any of these songs, and anyone over the age of 10 will run for cover when they hear Aaron Carter's high, scratchy voice. My advice to you is to pass on this album. There's far better, more deserving musical acts out there - check them out instead."
+4404,2,Great quality printer,"PRINTER:I've had this printer for about 2 months now. We use it constantly for printing out projects for home school. The print cartridge life was very impressive. We just finished going through the first high yield black cartridge. I was amazed how long it lasted compared to our Epson; that drank ink!The only draw back is there aren't any generic print cartridges yet, so we are forced to pay the full price for now, that will change over time.SCANNER:I have scanned about 80 images and the scanner works wonderfully as a plugin to photoshop. Easy to understand software. The colors looked great to me. Reproduction was true to life. I used the photos to create a movie photo montage and it turned out beautiful.Overall I am very happy with this printer. Great value!"
+4405,2,Mole Trap - It Works!,"This mole trap does catch moles, although its a bit difficult to set. Takes a lot of strength and I cannot do it so I have get my husband to re-set it when we need to do so. It caught 2 moles in the front yard and we are seeing no new mounds in that area, at least! Also, according to package directions, which we followed, one has to dig up a bit more of one's lawn to embed the device than the mole has already dug up. Still, for the price and a bit of patience, it gets the job done."
+4406,2,Worked as needed!,I used this for my son's Portable DVD Player. I put some of his videos on it and it worked great. His DVD player actually uses less battery power by using this instead of the DVDs. I have had it for awhile now and have zero issues.
+4407,2,One of the best Witchcraft books,"Although this is probably one of the best Witchcraft books out there it isn't on my favorite. This book is more a ritual book then a 101 or any other type of book (to me, that is). Sure it's full of info on just about anything and everything, but it's also a type of workbook, with questions and stuff like that. It does introduce Wicca along with other types of traditions and paths. Other than that, this book is great... long, but great. One that should be in every witch's library. Blessed be!"
+4408,2,Dr. Paul Chan,"An interesting and easy to read book that explains the classic 36 strategies of ancient China, and uses extensive examples to illustrate the practical implementation of these strategies. If you are strategist and a ""The Art of War"" fan, then I highly recommend this book."
+4409,2,Review of The Secret World of Arrietty,"Overall another excellent movie from Studio Ghibli. A creative and heart-warming re-telling of the Borrower story. Beautifully animation/cinematography brings the Borrowers tiny world to rich life. However, good or bad, just went it seems to start, it ends. You really want to see more! Again, good or bad, there are a number of characters very similar to previous Ghibli movies."
+4410,2,Dion Doesn't Disappoint !,"Celine Dion has reminded us once again that she is indeed a celebrated Diva of song in the nineties. The title track All The Way, a ""standard duet"" with Sinatra, is definitely worth a listen. However, it is her signature songs such as My Heart Will Go On, Because You Loved Me, and Beauty And The Beast that really showcase her powerful voice and vocal range. This album of songs will undoubtedly be a worthwhile collection for any fans to have ."
+4411,1,"big noise, no heat, useless",Made a lot of noise but could not generate enough heat to remove fog from a windshield let alone ice even when held right up to the windshield. The only heat that could be felt was if you held your hand 1/2 an inch directly in front of it and that was minimal at best. Bought this because the heater in my car had ceased working and to cope with the sudden freezing temperatures in Central California making it very difficult to get going in the early mornings. What little heat it throws is generated from a tiny light bulb. Very misleading. The 20% restocking fee (which should have been revealed up front but wasn't) and return postage made it not worth even returning. Would definitely not recommend it to anyone. Save your money and time.
+4412,2,Love!,This it the type of workout I love and I could see my body change within two weeks. It makes you sweat and gets your cardio but you're also building lean muscle for that sexy fit look that everyone loves.
+4413,2,$30 Film School is Great,"It's a must have,every film maker should have this book on their shelves. Thank you for making it happen Mr. Dean"
+4414,2,Oldie But A Real Goodie!,"This 1932 James Whale classic is just perfect for a pitch-dark stormy night's entertainment. All the elements are here for a great scary flick: You've got a stormy night, several stranded travellers, flickering lights, howling winds, an assortment of unorthodox [let's face it, weird] characters, and of course ""The Old Dark House""! The only thing that could cap it off might be Chris Lee and Vincent Price. Although those two horror legends are not really needed here. This standout cast does just fine on its own. I especially enjoyed Ernest Thesiger's performance as the timid and creepy [yet quite sensitive] Mr. Femm. This film has withstood the test of time. It still holds up very well in the 21st century. Great fun no matter how many times you've seen it."
+4415,1,"Laughable ""Scholarship""","1. Modern bibical scholarship has proven--beyond any shadow of a doubt--that Jesus of Nazareth never existed as a person.2. The entire thesis of ""Holy Blood, Holy Grail"" has been thoroughly debunked by profesional investigation (see Massimo Polidoro's on-line article on Rennes-le-Chateau)."
+4416,2,Great stories!!!,I love reading about the tragic hero and the ultimate tragic hero is Oedipus. This is a must-read for everyone that loves ancient Greek literature. The stories connect well with each other and the translation by Robert Fagles is the best and easy to understand. I borrowed this book for my comparative literature class and I loved it so much that I purchased my own copy and have read it twice so far!!!!! I give it the highest possible recommendation for any reader to have...you will not be disappointed!!
+4417,2,Office of the dead,"I loved this book. Although Bro. Dr. Seif will claim that the murder solving psychologist monk is not really him, let me tell you folks, I know Bernie and it is him. He's a great psychologist and spiritual leader. He has a unique blend of christian, eastern spiritual healing, blended with western psychology. In his book, he explains his psychology, healing techinques, Catholic factions all in the context of a mad man killing Catholic clergy. Fun and interesting to read."
+4418,2,Zinn is brilliant,"I bought this book for a History of US Mass Media class in college, and I couldn't put it down. I found myself reading ahead of what was assigned. ZInn's style is never dull or pedantic or pretentious. He points our heads into directions we're not used to, and it changes the way we look at the history happening right now.A must read for all journalism or history majors."
+4419,2,Great book!,This is a book that will take you to the next level of your faith. I have purchased so many of these over the years and given them away. This is an amazing book. Take it slow. It's a small book but there is a lot packed in. I read two or three pages at a time and then put it away and meditate on the message for a day or two. It will change your approach to your faith and how you move through life with God. This will deepen your relationship with God!
+4420,2,Pink Boot,"These a fun, and stylish for not a lot of money, since chances are I, like most will only wear a few times. I thought they were a great deal to add a little color and jazz up your style."
+4421,2,review,I haven't been able find these in any store. I am fighting plantar faciast so I needed shoes just like these. I have always found reebok has the best arch.
+4422,2,This book was quite good.,"I,Jedi was well done with only a few boring areas in the story. It fits right in with Specter of the Past and doesn't leave you wondering about it if you read I,Jedi first. The author is best at describing space battles and you can really picture what's there. I,Jedi is a well thought-up story and I enjoyed it. It wasn't the best but entertaining."
+4423,2,indespensable,"every kid has their favorite plush; this is my youngest daughter's choice. in fact, i'm ordering another one (maybe two) to replace the one we lost recently. love at first sight for my 16 mo. old. a great huggy animal friend...no real learning value, but who cares? some toys are just that--toys."
+4424,2,An excelent review of Japanese Bujutsu history,While this book does not go into great detail about any one subject it provides a wonderful overview of the history of Japanese martial arts. Full of trivia and great short stories.
+4425,2,great pot rack,well made pot rack.was hard to get on the wall curved bars in the way. called for a teensy screwdriver.I am using 11 of the 12 hooks.very satisfied with product.
+4426,1,Moroso 74103 Battery Terminal Disconnect Switch,This product was advertised as fitting a Toyota Prius battery. It did not fit on the battery terminals (connections too large) and was unusable.
+4427,1,Shame On Amazon,"Why is this ""unauthorized"" CD being sold on Amazon in the first place? This is just SO wrong. Definetly not fair to Ron. I would hope that Amazon would use a little bit more discretion when allowing people to sell items on their site or is it all about profit? Come on Ron, get some MP3 Downloads out there and give people a real choice. If this DWEEB can do it, so can you. And I for one, would rather you recieved the royalties you so justly deserve. GBY Ron. Looking forward to seeing those real downloads available to us Magic Sam diehards."
+4428,1,Shame,"This DVD just has to be one of the most lazy recent music compilations released.The videos: The omission of Sex Crime and Julia may be explained due to contractual issues, the songs being released on Virgin. Still, that was not a problem a few years back when the original compilation was released, Shame. There are additionally so many other songs missing (not a single one from We Two Are One), Shame.Sound: I thought my system had broken down. There is no surround sound here folks. Actually, it is muffled and seems to be concentrated on the central speaker, Shame.Footage transfer: It's alright, but could have been better, Shame.Other features: There aren't any, Shame.The content itself has stood the test of time, both musically and visually. As a product, however, this is a major let down. Did I mention that there is no Shame?"
+4429,1,Stainless Steel Meatgrinder,"I thought stainless steel does not rust. After the first time using the grinder, I put it in the dishwasher.When I took it out, the little wheel with all the holes was completly rusted, also the blade in some spots. Customer Service told me that I can't put the meatgrinder in the dishwasher to clean. Clean it in the sink with a little water. I feel it should've been posted with instructions on the website not to clean in the dishwasher. I never would've bought it. I never heard of anything so ridiculous.Anything cutting meat should be cleaned in as hot of water as you can get it. The thing is useless to me now, because I can't get the rust out of the little holes. I ask customer service to send me an manual where it says not to put in dishwasher. It's been 2 weeks now, nothing. Very disappointed."
+4430,1,Pass on this one,"Mr. Erway's review is right on, this book is garbage. Sometimes I wonder if the author got mixed up when commenting on some beers. Chimay Rouge ""is dominated by it's big hop aroma...The hop character continues to dominate..."" Huh?Much better info available on the internet, save your money."
+4431,2,A clear and true voice,"As a newly adoptive mother of a bi-racial child (African American and White) who too could ""pass for white"" (fair skin and blond hair), I found that this book helped me to see and feel the issues that my daughter may face in a way that cannot be conveyed in parenting or self-help books. As a bi-racial woman myself (Asian American and African American), I know so clearly how the internal cultural tug-of-war can feel - Danzy Senna captures it well. If that weren't enough, the time period was captured with sweet and exquisite detail...from the Afro picks to memorizing episodes of ""Good Times"" to Sergio Valente(!) jeans."
+4432,1,"Horrible for hot, bottom vented laptops!","The plastic becomes pliable when it's hot and basically sucks right up to the vents on the bottom of your computer, even with the little rubber feet in place. It really blocks the heat alright.. blocks it from escaping the computer at all!"
+4433,2,Exact Rainbox,I feel this is one of the best foods to feed 2 of my birds. My Cockatoo and my Sun Conure both eat it with no problems. My Cockatoo was hand raised and is now 17 years old. They do not like so much green o this is wasted.
+4434,2,One of the best Webkinz,"I gave this a high educational rating because of the online benefits, but out of all the Webkinz we have bought this is definitely the cutest. It has cotton candy like coloring with very soft fur and tinsel like additions to the mane and tail. We like it both online and as a stuffed animal.My 2 yr old granddaughter is a pony fan and loves this also."
+4435,2,McGraw's Done it Again!,"Just when we thought he couldn't get any better, Tim McGraw releases an album that includes his road band and show us that he just gets better all the time! This new cd is the whole package. Every song on the cd is excellent. I especially love the song ""All We Ever Find.""If you need any more proof that Tim McGraw is the greatest country enertainer, go to [website] and see what his fans have to say!Crystal(Zone: Blue Heeler)"
+4436,2,Excellent crash course on ancient history,"The author approaches the subject from the perspective of one who knows little to nothing about this period in history or geographical/political area, sets out to learn it all for himself and passes the knowledge along in a very readable style."
+4437,2,"Excellent, hooked until the end.",The best LJS series to come out since the Secret Circle. Jez has the looks and means to kill all who oppose her. She should continue on with the story and finally show a confrontation between the Wild powers and Hunter Redfern.I Just got to say this is one of my favorite books to just read over and over again.
+4438,1,Cheap Truck,"I bought this truck for my 2 year old. He ends up crying everytime he tries to play with it. The sides of the truck do not stay on no matter how I try to secure them. He gets very frustrated when the sides fall off.The boxes in the back are cheap cardboard and not durable at all.The sounds the truck makes are very short. The box indicates there is a demo mode, on mode and reset. There are only a demo mode and reset.My son has fun playing with the truck and keeps coming back to it but tears ensue every time. I expected with a name like Tonka it would be a little more durable and child friendly."
+4439,1,Can I give it .25 of a star?,"Don't waste your money on the poorest excuse for 80's crime dramas ever. This movie has the worst of every element, poor plot development, poor acting, bad over acting, no character development, bad lighting. Scenes that are entirely colored, green, blue and red, I understand it's ""artistic"", but unles you live next door to a Kenny Rogers Roasters (Seinfield Reference) the entire room will not be red. Don't even get me started on the music, ... And though Brian Cox does a great job as Hannibal, with the other ""actors"" it is hard to tell if he is even acting or just board with the script. It is just a tiresome movie that was a good idea in the 80's, but with a ending that all but mimicks the end of ""Silence of the Lambs"" and with too many events in the movie that just happen, assuming the viewer had read the book, without explination as to why this movie deserves less than ""Killer Tomatoes Eat France"" or any Earnest Movie."
+4440,2,"Good, but has drawbacks.","I have used this pack daily for 3 years now. If one thing can be said about Outward Hound products, they have great nylon exteriors. But as with all of their products, the elastic is dead in a matter of a couple of months. I need to replace mine, as the zippers are no longer holding. The water bottles have proven tougher than i ever imagined, still flexible after 3 years. All of the logo/picture has worn off, but they are still used everyday.If Outward Hound is to change ANYTHING on their products, the zippers and elastic need it the most. The water bottle straps on both sides had begun to sag within 2 weeks. They now hang useless under the water bottle holders. The pack itself is pretty bullet proof."
+4441,2,"terrifically written, great story.","Ruarke is rightfully called the master of outdoor writing. This is a fabulously written story of his first safari in Kenya and Tanganyika (now Tanzania). It is a must read for anyone who enjoys outdoor literature, hunting stories, or Africa."
+4442,1,Easy to make - and very dry,You just throw this in the microwave and it's ready in 60 seconds. The drawback is that it is dry and essentially without much taste. Also the consistency is very slightly rubbery.
+4443,2,The editorial,"review reminds me of a headline from The Onion: 79 Percent Of Americans Missing The Point Entirely. Unless the translation is really bad, it is one of the best cartoons ever made. At least as funny as Shrek."
+4444,1,Save yourself and pass on this model.,"The cheap price is the get what you pay for deal. I had a pair of these when they originally came out, and they lasted awhile but the cords have very thin insulation and that tore and broke the wire rendering them useless. A year later I bought another pair from amazon and the audio quality was terrible, not sure if they sounded like that the first time around. I had them a month and the cord got a cut in it again so in the trash they went. I tried to repair them the first time it happened but had no luck. This is also my 4th plantronics headset. The other two laster longer but the same thing happened to the cord. The first set was $110 and the the clip for the volume and mic controls actually broke the wires. So now i tend to stay away from plantronics. YMMV"
+4445,1,Hands and fingers trapped in two of the sides,"I bought the Busy Zoo at Target and my then twelve-month old twins liked it very much, although it did not take my son long to learn to tip it over and reach inside the hollow underside. After a month, however, both my babies started getting their hands and/or fingers trapped and pinched in the two sides with spinning wood blocks. They would cry and could not get their hands and fingers out without my help. I did not, however, have peeling paint, as others have. I took the Busy Zoo away, of course. Interesting that the description for the product reads for one-year olds, but there is a warning for choking hazards on the Amazon page, stating not for children under three."
+4446,1,It worked great for ONE DAY,It worked great for one day. Now it is not working. The battery is new. The water is on. It just doesn't work.
+4447,1,Hot-headed wannabe needs to cool-off,"This is a book about a self-righteous wannabe warrior. Even though the book is written by him, it doesnt portray him in a good light. He is too absorbed in himself to admit to any wrongdoing: He blames everybody else for his problems, doesnt hide his arrogance, cant follow orders (as a good soldier is supposed to), etc..He seems to think that he knows better than everyone else. And its no wonder that he gets in trouble whereever he goes.. His latest thing is getting arrested in Mexico as an over-zealous bounty hunter(this guy seems to be very impulsive and doenst know anything about self-control)..But I have to say that the book is entertaining.I would suggest that he takes a break from his adventures and search for humility and peace-of-mind. And then write a book about it:)"
+4448,1,"Poor Quality, Never Worked","Purchased this toy despite the mixed reviews. In hindsight, I should have been more cautious. The gun did not work at all, so it could not be played even once. Workmanship is shoddy and cheap. The toy was manufactured in China; there is no manufacturer contact at all on the box or the instruction sheet so there is no way to obtain replacement parts if one part does not work. Amazon issued a refund very promptly, but it still doesn't fix my kids' disappointment about their favorite Christmas present not working."
+4449,2,GREAT MOVIE!!,"A great classic movie will never get old. No matter how many times I have seen this movie, I can watch again and again."
+4450,2,Loved It!,I'm an Original Transformers fan from the original cartoon. There was action from start to finish and the Love Story didn't slow thing for me. I've watched this movie numerous times and still see things I missed the first few times i watch it. Loved It!
+4451,1,Tough to assemble/ poor customer service,"I would love to be able to say how much daughter loves riding her new bicycle, but we still cannot get it assembled after several tries and one try by a neighbor. Not only that, but our phone call to Huffy customer service to request a replacement of a small metal shaft that holds the pedal on was a horrible experience. They were very rude and reluctant to be helpful. Hopefully, we will eventually get this part and get going."
+4452,1,Do You Ever Get The Impression....,".... that some reviewers gush about a particular artist or band simply because their previous works were so good that this one must be too? As if it would be sheer sacrilege to question anything they put out because the reviewer could not bear to admit to themselves that their most-revered band could churn out something C grade?Well folks, compared to ""Curtains"" or ""II"" this is lame, boring. Yes, I tried to find something to like about it but in the end there is nothing! and it found it's way into the 2nd hand section of a Sydney Record store. Its probably worth 2 stars but as always on these reviews, the ratings are too heavily weighted by ""pro"" voices, so I offer a one star in the interest of balance :)"
+4453,2,Everything the world needs to know,"The ""conversations with god"" books are awesome. This is how it's all intended to be in contrast to the authority the different churches try to force on us. The books make you see the bigger scale on things and how we can reach our true potential.For people who don't have time to read, this is a perfect alternative for in your car or on your iPod (or at home of course). Time to get wise and change this world into the paradise it could (and should) be.I thank Neale for the enourmous wisdom in his books.. The question if it actually comes from ""god"" isn't that important... but I think the message is just far too wise to just invent all of it.A lot of stuff to ponder about, good luck with it!"
+4454,2,Awesome,We got this as a wedding present and it is awesome. I tell people about it all the time. We love it and it is so easy to use.
+4455,2,No Beatles fan should go without seeing this movie,"I'm a Beatles nut =) I think it shows a lot of growth on the part of the Beatles. It is their first film that has a ""plot"" of sorts to it. Hard Day's Night was great in the respects of a documentary type movie of what it was like to be caught in Beatle mania. Help actually shows the loyal that these guys have talent beyond being cute. I think the best parts of the movie are the humor. For instance: Paul's big adventure on the floor, Ringo and John's dialogue about the ""season ticket"" in Ringo's soup. The movie is truly a classic. I could watch the movie 10,000 times and every single time is a brand new laugh; a new experience."
+4456,1,Where's Neil?,"If Neil is playing the instruments and not singing on this, then this isn't worth it. Who is Elyse? I recommend this to someone who likes Elyse, not Neil Young."
+4457,1,Disappointment,"I guess I just expected more quality for the price. Two other Christmas videos that I'd bought from Amazon cost much less but had sharper images. I'm giving it away, as I'm not interested in playing it again."
+4458,1,Poor,"I had the misfortune of watching about half of this movie over Christmas. While I love animated films, (I own all the Pixar films) and usually like animated kids movies, I did not enjoy this one. The storyline was alright, but the animated characters just didn't have the right 'feel' to them. The main character, HAM-III, was too cocky and sure of himself to be likable. The voice acting is also a downgrade from the other animated films released in 2008. The movie just felt sub-par when compared to other kids flicks I've seen that last few years. Also, the animation itself is of a lesser quality; it just doesn't look polished.If you're looking for a good animated film for your kids, check out WALL-E (or anything Pixar) or KUNG FU PANDA. They are much better films and more watchable for an adult audience. (KUNG FU PANDA made me laugh my pants off; Jack Black's voice acting is hysterical)."
+4459,1,A piece of junk- DO NOT BUY,"This thing is as noisy as they come, Have seen other reviews and I agree. This thing has a design defect right from the factory. Buy the rival CFF5 instead the rival has a removable bowl reservoir that holds more chocolate so your not constantly refilling the thing."
+4460,2,great,"although this album is very far out there it is awesome. at first it can be hard to listen to and unlike the others of these five box sets, it is very open and unformatted. i did not like it the first time i heard it but each time i listen to it, it gets better and better. i found this album similar to bitches brew . not because much of bitches brew is played but because i also did not like bitches brew the first time i heard it. now it is one of my favs. miles sure knew what the hell he was doing."
+4461,2,Great cd for movie buffs!,"I love this cd. It's the perfect combination of favorites from both movies. I couldnt find the song ""Snow"" on any other vinyl album or cd including the White Christmas cd. This album wont disappoint any movie fan. The recordings sound like they came straight from the movies so the quality of sound isnt the best but it really isnt terrible either. Overall a great buy to share your favorites with the family."
+4462,1,Poor,Implausible and contrived with an unbelievably singular plot line. It's difficult to NOT figure out who-done-it half way through the book. Skip this one!
+4463,2,Market Spice,"If you like Orange-Spice Tea, you cannot find a better tea than Market Spice. I am personally not typically a fan of orange-spice teas because I find them too bland. This is not the case with Market Spice Tea it is anything but bland."
+4464,1,The only soundtrack is GERMAN,"This is a movie I like a lot, but I am giving this version only 2 stars as a warning to other customers. Look closely at the details of the movie, under Language it only mentions German. Other Region 2 movies I have purchased that are American movies have always included an English soundtrack, but not this one. You can only watch the movie with German voices dubbed over the regular voices. It doesn't even have English subtitles. I still gave it 2 stars because you don't have to speak German to enjoy the exciting Rollerblade race at the end of the movie."
+4465,2,Great product for an excellent price,"I searched many different sites and read many reviews before finally deciding on this product. I was a little skeptical due to the price and material, but it turned out to be a great mount. The stem was also a good length, it appears alot shorter in the picture. I have already recommended this mount to several friends. It's sturdy, convenient, holds my palm pre and ipod touch tightly, and has really strong suction. It's not so bad that it doesn't come with directions because the parts are pretty self-explanatory."
+4466,1,Not worth the money,"We've had this since January...4 months later, the stupid thing cracked on the bottom. We clean it everyday and have two small 8-10lb cats. It was working great until there was cat pee all over our carpet. So excited to buy a new litter box AND replace the carpet...NOT!!"
+4467,2,Fast Charger at a good price.,This charger lives up to its claims. It charges 4 AAA batteries in around an hour. It's easy to use. I'd recommend it to anyone.
+4468,1,what the ****?,I bought this dvd at Walgreen's drug store for $1.00! And yes there's only one Woody cartoon....
+4469,2,All The Great Oldies!,"Wow, all the great oldies from the movie. And arrived very quickly, even though Standard shipping was selected."
+4470,1,Horrible,"This is the unholy combination of dried apricots, inner tubes, and fig newtons. Avoid at all costs. Also, there is no satisfaction policy from manufacturer - just instructions explaining how to store their food products. Check out the manufacturer website.I'd recommend the cherry flavored bars as the those do taste somewhat like cherry pie."
+4471,2,One of my Favorite Books by Nora Roberts,"This is my second favorite book by Nora Roberts. I love the suspense in this book. I couldn't put ""Carolina Moon"" down."
+4472,1,Probably not the best,"I examined this book for a university class I teach on C++ for Java programmers. I decided not to use it for some of the same reasons cited by other reviewers. The book tends to dive into minutiae, and fails to explain some important ideas clearly. There's a chapter, for instance, on operator overloading, which is an important C++ feature lacking in Java. But the chapter dives into a discussion of operator overloading in a tone that seems to expect that the reader already understands the concept. The chapter doesn't begin with a clear explanation, nor offer one later. Instead, it starts with an obscure example involving comma operators, which no one uses."
+4473,1,AM/FM Reception is very bad,"Don't listen to the 5 star review. I bought it, I know how bad its AM/FM reception was in Washington, DC area. The Surround Sound feature makes the reception even worse. There is only only one button for radio presets. So, if you want to switch from Preset #3 to Preset #2, you have to press the button 30 times (i.e. #4, 5, 6, ..., 30, 1). The surround mode sounds very strange and distorted. Don't waste your money!"
+4474,1,A Sad Attempt To Close A Once-Wonderful Series,"This show survived for 26 years and they end the show with a story about Darwin's famous phrase, ""Survival of the fittest."" Doctor Who began as the lion of the kingdom and went out as the worm in the dirt.This story could have been so much better if the Cheetah people would have been approached from a different route. They needed to be more ominous, more devious like cats are stereotyped to be. It was depressing to see the Master be reduced to using cats as his means of getting power. When I look back as the Delgado Master, he would have never used such primitive means of achieveing power.This story was disappointing. I bought it hoping that the final episode would be one of the classics. Instead, I fell asleep during 'Part Two.' Come one, McCoy, get with the picture."
+4475,2,Great Follow-up To Life's Greatest Lessons,"Let me echo Mr. Donovan's review...I too enjoyed this book. Dr. Urban has sold over 250,000 books (this title included in that mix). There's a reason for that!Bill Wiersma, Author, The Big AHA!"
+4476,2,"Good overview, but remains cursory","This is a good overview of physiology, but it lacks detail in various places. For instance, I didn't find any mention of the Frank-Starling law, and no pressure-volume loops. However, what it does explain, it does so accurately and thoroughly. The clinical discussions at the end of chapters are good. One probably should not rely on this as a stand alone text, but use it to clarify or re-think certain concepts or systems. Non-essential part of a library, but helpful nonetheless."
+4477,1,very disappointed,I bought this pool light show in mid-July and the thing doesnt work after the first use. The lights are hardly visable in the water and are no where near what the picture shows. I was so looking forward having this light for our pool and all I can say is save your money this is a rip off.
+4478,1,"buy ""On This Date"" instead","Kremer's ""Celebrate Today"" is an amateurish mess.Crummy clip art that's obviously several decades old...dumb made-up holidays, many of them redundant orself-promoting (to sell Kremer's other books)...and a '60s liberal slant in the selection of featured eventscombine to make this a frustrating and nearly unusable volume.Do yourself a favor and buy ""On This Date"" by Sandy Whiteleyinstead. It's a classy book that treats readers with respect.There's more usable material in one chapter of ""On This Date""than in Kremer's entire book."
+4479,1,I must have lost my mind to have ordered a product before checking the reviews,"I did not buy this knife on amazon, i ordered it after i wacthed the TV commercials. please you all should learn from my mistake. I usually check a review online before purchasing a product but this time arround i was carried away with all the lies and make believe i saw on tv and then speedily ordered the uselss knives that were not better than the dollar stores knives. I am seriously regretting it, and it's causing me a headache.The knives are flimsy and can't even cut through a cardboard. It is just useless for the money i spent."
+4480,1,Terrible,It is difficult to use words harsh enough to describe this product and this company.I have owned this software for about 80 days.1. In 80 days of use this product has completely locked up or not opened twice.2. I have called the 'support' line 4 times. The minimum time I was on hold was 40 minutes.3. My initial 'support' period is about to expire and I now will have to pay $200 to get more 'support'4. You have to buy additional software to get your data onto a palm device.In summary: The product has locked up about every 40 days and the average hold time is 40 minutes when you call them.Save yourself the grief - buy nothing or buy something else.
+4481,1,german helmet black,"my opinion on this item in not good at all. its intérior in made of cheap foam and no good for safety and confort....as far as I am concerne, it is good for garbage...not worth to buy"
+4482,1,Kept Slipping from the knee,"According to the size chart, I bought the right size, but it kept slipping down from my knee.I seems to me that the velco straps are too short and therefore, not enough surface is in contact to keep the brace in place."
+4483,1,v. poorly edited,"Could have been told in 300 pages. Don't be disuaded though -- there's a nice, very readable story here. Just skim heavily through the incredibly self-indulgent boring parts."
+4484,1,Great research by Wardlow marred by Calt's poor presentation,"This book is fairly essential to those interested in themusic of Patton and his contemporaries, as it is based onthe comprehensive research on the subject by Gayle DeanWardlow, research which is largely unavailable elsewhere.Unfortunately, Calt's presentation of this information ispoor at best, and downright malicious at times. His writing istypically peppered with ad homien attacks at his subjects,and this book is no exception. The book is also in desperateneed of thorough editing... one sometimes wonders how it got publishedat all."
+4485,1,Let down,"Guys, I love Korn, been with em since Life Is Peachy, have every cd and most of their singles, but their newest one isn't very good. And everyone talks about how they have evolved or w/e... I just don't think they got any more good music left in them. Yea they can put out a single or two off their newest stuff but the rest is just filler. Don't buy it, I'm still disappointed (broke my little twisted Korn loving heart to write this)."
+4486,2,The Sakuraba fight alone makes this a must have!!!,Pride 12 (a.k.a. Cold Fury) contains the the Sakuraba vs Ryan Gracie fight in which Sakuraba literally spanks him in the corner for laughs. His fourth Gracie...Incredible!It also has the amazing battle between Vanderlei Silva and Dan Henderson.Those in themselves are fantastic but there are a bunch of other great matches on it as well.Order it right now!!!
+4487,2,Awesome combonation!,"I have always been skeptical of wireless, but this set from LogiTech has changed me! I had bought a Microsoft Optical Blue wireless and was less than satisfied after using it for several weeks. I finally found many many user recommendations for the Logitech MX700 Wireless mouse from Gamers which I am. I gotta say that I'm very happy. I've used this now for a while and can't imagine going back to my corded devices. The keyboard has many cool buttons that are very useful if you use IE or they can all be customized. The software it comes with has given me no problems and games play great. Get one!"
+4488,2,Nelly's daytime beats shows his talents,"The album ""Sweat"" has great tracks! Especially with Missy Elliot, Christina Aguliera, Jazzy, Pharell and more. ""The Heart of a Champion"" is a great song that he used with the old NBA on NBC theme. ""Tilt Your Head Back"" was a great song with his mix of 70s groove in the background. ""Flap Your Wings"" is giving it up to all shapes and sizes to do the dance. But my favorite is ""Superman"" (which in my opinion would have been good for the ""Superman 2"" soundtrack). He still keeps that St.Louie feel with his body moving and down right songs."
+4489,2,Incestry,"Absolutely loved the approach to this topic. Original, enchanting, surprising and overall a great depiction of how lives were led in other times."
+4490,1,Bark Control,"I purchased this bark control because a friend of mine told me about it. I have a 7 year old Papillion who barks quite a bit when no one pays attention to her. It is most annoying. So, I bought this bark control thinking it would help out but unfortunately, for me , it just didn't work."
+4491,2,trading in the zone,The only reason I do not give it a five is because I haven't had the book long enough to put it fully into practice. In the short time since I have just completed reading it my trading has improved. I need to read it again and have more practice before I could say that it is excellent. So far I would say extremely good.Thanks Nancy Williams
+4492,1,Didn't finish it...,"My wonderful hubby brought this home from a retreat at Steubenville University for me. He usually picks exceptional books for me and I very much look forward to reading his seletions, but this one was a flop. I read the first few chapters and realized I was not finding it funny. So, I skipped ahead and read a few more... I still did not find it funny.I found the humor to be a combination of whine and slap stick - neither of which I appreciate.Sorry, I really wanted it to be funny.All the best to you!"
+4493,1,Disappointing,"I felt that the structure of the book and the subject matter - a group of interesting and diverse women coming together telling their story, individually, chapter by chapter, was very promising & would make an interesting novel - not so. The characters were all stereotypes & I found the character development completely shallow & forced, in fact I wouldn't call the changes the women went through character development at all, the changes were abrupt, predicatable & convenient - really galled me as a reader. The author didn't make me care about the characters at all & I can barely even remember their names! I also felt that the plot was extremely weak - especially Faith's story, which was contrived & formulaic. I thought I would love this book, but I was disappointed."
+4494,1,Several skits were on Vol. 1 - rip off!,"I did not like this SNL - not up to the standards set by Amy Poehler or Dana Carvey which are both a hoot! Will Ferrell IS funny just not in these particular skits and in volume 2 there are only 2 skits I thought worthy of watching. The rest are vulgar and yelling and sorry, but I just don't get the punch line. I really don't think there is one. Sometimes the other actors crack up but I couldn't figure out why - maybe something was chopped off... What a waste of money."
+4495,2,"Great for music, less spectacular in noise cancellation",These headphones work great for music but seem to work only okay for the noise cancellation feature. I was looking for a replacement pair of headphones for travel that could be used to block out the noise like my old pair of noise cancellation headphones from Brookstone. When turned on and not listening to music it sounds like white noise or static. Comfortable to wear and fit small heads well unlike some headsets.
+4496,1,Do Not Buy!,These things are horrible. Here's why:1. They hurt your ears.2. The sound quality is awful! The music sounds very distant and quiet.3. The cord is short.4. I can't stand the awkward way in which you must wrap them around your ears.Do not buy these headphones. I for one am returning them.P.S. It may just be the fact that I am trying to replace a set of Bose headphones.
+4497,1,Snow falling on Cedars - Predictable,"A mystery I think not! Well written, but the story was too predictable. I knew what was going to happen after the first seventy-five pages. Guterson wrote as if he were a poet, great adjectives and verbs, but he forgot to add mystery to the tale. The book read slow because of this, it took me a lot longer than it should have to read four hundred some pages. The only mystery was; what happened to the mystery in the novel? In first chapters, Guterson pulls you in with exquisite vocabulary, then you are dropped like a bad habit by lack of story. Disappointing to read such a great and yet not so great book in one. I did not suggest this book any of my friends, as I will not suggest it to you. Find a better book."
+4498,2,Real Estate Calculator,Item as Stated. Very effective in the easy prequalification of potential clients in the real estate field.
+4499,1,Cheap! Cheap! Cheap! But otherwise I love it!,"I bought this at Sears and loved it. I have a one-year-old who is pretty messy and I no longer worry about the messes...it is so easy to clean up with this sweeper.However, after owning it for one month, it stopped working and the handle snapped off. Since I did like the product, I took it back to Sears and traded it in for another one. I have had the second one for a month and it has also stopped working and the top of the handle never stayed on properly.As much as I like the convenience of this product, this time I am going to get my money back and by something else."
+4500,2,raw blues,"Boston quartet does raw, rough and ready versions of old blues classics and obscurities. If you like the kind of blues found on the Fat Possum label, you'll definitely dig this. Great stuff!"
+4501,1,WASTE OF MY TIME AND ENERGY. . .,"I heard such great things about this book- so how could I not read it? Very easily, if I knew what I was getting myself into. I did not enjoy it for one second. I am not in the habit of starting books and not finishing them, and this was no exception but I read it, very sluggishly, just to get to the end so I could put it down. Nothing about it was enjoyable- nothing!"
+4502,1,"No, no...forget it...no","What a terrible record. I wanted to like the music and the cover art, but look at it- there's only one good tune on this album: an instrumental with horns. I can't remember the title of that song since I threw the record away. A waste of money it is...don't buy it. It's a sad, sad excuse for a record. It gives new meaning to the word ""awful."" No personality, no vibrancy, it brings nothing resembling enjoyment to the ears (with the exception of that one tune I can't remember.) One star it gets and only for that song."
+4503,1,Pet Bed,I purchased this pet bed for my dad's outside dog to put inside the doghouse to give her some extra warmth. It is a little thinner than what I expected. There is not much support in the bottom of the bed. I would have expected more padding. I kept it because it was not worth the price to ship back.
+4504,1,"Sound & Fury, Signifying NOTHING!","Well, Sandra Bullock is a favorite of mine, though I've been very disappointed by many of her films. It's not always her, it's the scripts. My favorites being Two Weeks Notice, The Net, and The Thing Called Love, in which she wasn't the star, but the film was pretty good.But this, this was about the most boring movie I ever saw. I kept fast forwarding it, hoping it would get better or thinking about turning it off, and finally it came to and end. Thank goodness. I put it back in the little box and slipped it down below in the cupboard with other movies I didn't like, hated or some boring re-runs.The plot is ridiculous, made no sense. The characters were ridiculous and made no sense. In fact, the whole movie made no sense. You've probably read the plot somewhere, so I won't bother to run through it, but unless you love bad farce, don't buy it.And PS. I don't consider this a romantic comedy."
+4505,1,Unlistenable - Zero Stars,"Wilco's first album, A.M., is in my top ten list of best rock albums of all time. Although I thoroughly enjoy Tweedy's next releases, Being There and Summer Teeth, every subsequent album after A.M. was a step down in quality - a devolvement into self-indulgent experimentation. The wheels started coming off with Yankee Hotel Foxtrot and then it completely fell apart with this album. It's amazing how bad it is, and I've given it plenty of chances - more than it deserved. To like this album you must like anything that bears the Wilco name. Tweedy could have belched into a mic for forty minutes and he'd still get five star reviews by the hard core."
+4506,2,Imagine Sincerity,"Imagine sincerity when reading this book of thought provoking poetic prose, which seems to leave as much unsaid as said. It's hard to fathom that simplistic, heartfelt expression can find an audience at a time when perspectives blur easily from the debris of cynicism and fanaticism that litter the global landscape, but for those who seek refreshment for a thirsty soul, reading this book will lift the spirits. This is a breezy read and is especially soothing to read aloud to people of all ages."
+4507,2,sturdy,Love the whips - This is my third set because I keep forgetting the cold temperature of the butter - sometimes I'll stick very cold or frozen butter in the bosch and the whips don't like that. But these are great!
+4508,1,"Maybe it's me, maybe not.....","I just don't see this as an overall ""strong"" record. Although I have enjoyed many of Underworld's songs in the past--I think 2 maybe 3 songs stand out on the CD and the rest is unlistenable. I don't think my opinion is due to the fact that I just don't ""get it"" or I ""don't appreciate art"" because I like a diverse variety of music both new and old--this CD's just not all that. Get Backstreet Boys or Britney Spears instead...."
+4509,1,Poor Quality Control,"As a fan of racing sims, my Playseats classic/Logitech Driving Force Pro combo has seen a lot of use. So, when I wanted to upgrade, the obvious choice was a Playseats Evolution and Logitech G25 (a popular combo here, it seems). The Evolution seems to be designed for the G25 - everything fit together beautifully, with much less wobble than the classic, and Playseats helpfully includes bolts for the wheel and pedals to eliminate wobble there as well.However, I can't put the seat together, because someone at the factory broke off a drill bit while threading one of the holes - then decided to leave it there. I now have a nicely powder-coated fragment of drill bit that can't be removed. The seat is nothing but a pile of parts until I figure out how to get a replacement post. There's no phone number in the box, and their website lists contact info in the Netherlands.This seems like an improvement on its predecessor in every way - but thanks to poor quality control, I wouldn't know."
+4510,2,Sexy presenting of bloody deeds,"In easy-reading sarcastic form, a bloody history of ancient Rome-a descendant 0f modern democracies-has been presented, substantiated by funny illustrations.Catch of this edition: a paper jacket contributing to a blank pink hardcover, missed.To the reviewer's belief, this book will worth not less in 50 years than ones illustrated by Salvatore Dali nowadays.A rare jem not to miss."
+4511,2,Good Value,"I bought this because my daughter had one & recommended it. She used hers to clean houses with so I figured if it could make it through that it would do me fine. Easy to use, light weight & it comes with tools. It does not have a height adjustment for carpets but that hasn't been a problem for me and I use it on bare floors and 2 different heights of carpet. Also easy to empty & clean filter."
+4512,1,VIDEOGAME?????,"I have played Xenogears for exactly 2 hours and 30 minutes now, and I have fought a wopping 5 random battles that arent worth my time and have had about 10 minutes actually playing the game. The other 2 hours and some odd minutes are freaking cut scenes that arent even good enough to get my attention. The game is not bad though, but DEFINITELY NOT A FINAL FANTASTY OR HIGH LEVEL RPG. Its just a plain run of the mill rpg, so dont expect anything."
+4513,2,overpriced if u ask me for what it does,"You can purchase water purification flocking powder which is also called ""bentonite powder"" or bentonite clay in the health section.Bentonite by itself will not kill germs but it will clear dirt water fast. I use it to clarify my wine. It will take a cloudy jug of new 2 week old wine and make it into a super clear wine. If it was dirty water it would do the same, then you can run thru your brita pitcher, boil it, or use chemical disinfectant.Bentonite is used in municipal water before treatment. If you have ever drank municipal water it has been touched by bentonite first."
+4514,1,minus 5 stars,"This is possibly the worste most inappropriate,crass,embarrassing UN-funny movie I have ever seen,the acting was poor and the story line was weak. I have no idea how it ended because I never finished it but even a sappy heartfelt 5 star ending wouldn't have been enough to redeem this one for me. My first clue should have been when I realized David Hasselhoff was in it,I should have ran and not looked back at that point. It is TOTALLY not appropriate for the pg-13 audience. If I could have given a minus 5 stars I would have, please don't waist your precious brain cells on this worthless movie."
+4515,2,Beautiful Illustrations,"I gifted this book to my husband as a birthday present. After he enjoyed reading the entire Patrick O' Brian series, the last thing he expected was to see another book related to the stories. I've never seen him so happy!The book is beautifully illustrated and also presents a wealth of information for the O' Brian enthusiasts."
+4516,2,"""Baby body"" buster","I used this video after I had my first child. It didn't take long to get back into my ""skinny"" jeans. I love the combination of an areobic workout with toning movements. The instructors do a nice job building up to the full step pattern. This is one video I stuck with!"
+4517,2,LA capers,"A few funny sequences on the order of the old silent films, or perhaps Benny Hill. The coin toss animation was great (how do they do that?). A lovely, light-hearted romp, with pratt falls and other choreography. Well Done!"
+4518,2,Growth,"This fine recording was made during a live performance in London in 2006. Having just witnessed a recital that included some of the same music but as heard in 2011 it is gratifying to report that this dazzling artist has continued to grow and polish in the five years since this recording. She still manages to offer rarely known works by Reynaldo Hahn and excerpts from Rossini's output for which she is the reigning queen, but listening to this CD again it is exciting to hear how her voice has developed into such a flawless instrument.This recital is performed with Julius Drake as her collaborator at the piano (her current exemplary accompanist/collaborator is the excellent David Zobel): DiDonato truly shares the stage with her collaborators and the result is music making of the highest order. This is a superb recording and belongs in the library o all those who admire this artist's work. By all her CDs: she is destined to be a legend! Grady Harp, February 11"
+4519,2,Sleep with comfort,"I love my body pillow. It helps with knee pain, hip pain, and lower back pain. I can't sleep at night without it. I have a cover that is machine washable to always keep my pillow clean."
+4520,2,Beautiful,Well made suspense romance story starring Bogie and Bacall. They are so good together...Also see The Big Sleep. Hawks was a genius.
+4521,2,Excellent,every book that I have read in this series is wonderful..Maggie Shaynes vampires are captivating...RE-PRINT THESE BOOKS....PLEASE!
+4522,1,the templars and the grail,the book is too especulative not mush scientific information can be obtained.
+4523,1,Didn't do the trick,Unfortunately this item didn't deter the flock of pigeons that inhabit our barn.They are still here despite the use of this item and other Bird-X deterrents.
+4524,2,Helps when looking at the full moon,"Found this filter to be helpful when looking at a full moon with high magnification, but rarely used. Does what it should, but not sure it is really necessary."
+4525,2,What A Girl Wants- Is This Film...,"Orginally I thought the movie looked like another pre-teen flick made with the star vehicle being another popular child entainer but, this movie is so much more than that. O.K so the plot maybe, a little predictable but, I still enjoyed watching this one with my cousins on family movie night. I certainly enjoyed watching more than Mary-Kate and Ashley or Hillary Duff!I felt as though the characters seemed witty and had somewhat of a smart dialouge... but, really captured this movie were the actors who did a phenumal job of keeping your interested. There was not one person who was badly cast in this film. Although I still maintain the belief that Amanda Bynes is more of entainer than an actress. I watch it over and over again admiring Colin Firth's role as dad to Daphne!This movie was great and if you have a pre-teen to tween daughter they'll love you if you buy this film!"
+4526,2,Do u really want Stuntman?,Stuntman is a sweet game it is diffenitely worth the price. The only thing I don't like is that u can't go out for a drive in a city like Midnight Club. But other words the game is well worth it if u are into high graphics and insane stunts in tricked out cars............ u Diffinitely need to put this on ur Wishlist. If u are more of the racing type I suggest u purchase Granturismo3.
+4527,2,To Die For,Can't wait for Season 2 to be available on DVD or Download.The first season is high quality television.
+4528,2,The African Queen,"When I first watched this movie many years ago, I thought it was just a war story. I didn't realize until much later it is truly a great love story. I really enjoy watching it over & over. Kathryn Hepburn as a prim & proper lady & Humphrey Bogart as a, gee, I don't know exactly how to describe him, a lovable, independant guy, who likes his liquor, but has great compassion for a lady in distress. What can I say, but it's a # 10 in my book."
+4529,1,Sad,"Out of all four books in this series, Jade was easily the worst. It wasn't that she was a spoiled rich girl or anything like that. I actually liked her for a while. However, the cyber-relationship and her falling into ""Sonny""'s trap was ludicrous. Yes, it happens in real life - girls falling prey for Internet predators - but this is hysterical. Jade is supposed to be a smart girl, she's on the honor roll, whatever.But when she realized something was wrong, she didn't run. And what follows is just utterly ridiculous as a old man ties her to the bed and continues to feed her BS and is clearly insane. This story started out with promise but vastly deteriorated, and is the worst one in this series. It's not even good by a 'tween book' standard."
+4530,1,Disappointing: sentimental folk music,In this CD you will not find any of the mystical atmosphere of Indian music. The voices are quite ordinary and the tunes have a disgusting sentimental flavour. Some of the voices are so nasal that they are really unpleasant to listen to.I wonder why the name of Ravi Shankar is so prominent on this CD because you hardly hear the sound of the sitar.
+4531,1,very old battery,"The battery is as picture. The battery I received was manufactured in 2007. This results in a much lower capacity. The battery is undamaged (no bulge, or swell), yet a full charge is good for about 10 minutes of talk time."
+4532,2,"Not all follies all the time, but funny still.","There's more than just stumbles and falls on this video, but still another fun video in the series. My young boys get a kick out of watching them, but especially enjoy the first two in the Greatest Follies Series. There's a couple of stories that are repeats from Vol. 3 which was disappointing."
+4533,1,A COMPLETE WASTE OF MONEY (and time!),"This book was a complete waste of money and time. If I could give it NEGATIVE 5 STARS, I would.Other than the myriad of spelling, grammatical and editing mistakes that makes one wonder about the quality of the information in the book, the actual content adds absolutely nothing to Canada's official immigration website...oh, sorry, no the author does add a very sorry 20 page summary of his views of the most ""efficient"" time management and efficiency techniques(""7 habits of successful people""-style)(sooooo lame), adding ""good luck"" every other page. Plus the final annex is top notch if you don't know how to use google or any other search engine as it lists on an excel spreadsheet (!!) job search sites (didn't I say the editing was pathetic? Well the outlay and graphics too) ...For a good book on immigrating to Canada get: ""Living and Working in Canada"", now that's a quality book!"
+4534,2,Plastic Rules!,"Got this spreader 3 years ago and it's great! It replaced my old steel one that rusted and jammed. This one can be washed down with a hose after using fertilizer (if I remember)and will never rust out. It's easy to operate, stops spreading when you turn or go over an area that's already been covered, then starts right up again (the lever is big and easy to operate, even with my slightly arthritic hand). It's also lightweight, something I value as a small person. Maintenance so far has been zero; and I have had NO problems. I wish I could find a lawn mower as easy to operate and maintain as this thing."
+4535,1,No product in package!,"When I opened the store package, there was nothing it it. The package that it was sent in didn't look like it was tampered with. However, the store package had scotch tape on the sides. There was no product in the store package. Needless to say, I wasn't pleased. I was refunded the full amount approximately 5 days after reporting the problem."
+4536,2,Schoenhut 25 key Elite Spinet with bench,I boughter for my daughters both love music and dance. I found in online web. They don't know how to play yet but they tried to learn by themself and like so much it's good product. Good for young age. [ASIN: Schoenhut 25 key Elite Spinet with Bench ]
+4537,1,victomology 101,"Once you sift through the overabundance of useless adjectives to explain a simple point you will exhaustedly come to the conclusion that Blacks who are not successful need not worry or be responsible for their demise. The fault rests on that all time favorite whipping boy, the white man (gimme a break).As a Black man I find the premise of the book insulting and counterproductive. I was curious and wanted hear Mr. Robinson make a valid case but instead I got a headache. This book will go sit on my book shelf gathering dust, never again to see the light of day, next to Cornel West."
+4538,1,Disappointed overall,"I purchased this set with the Insect Lore Painted Lady Butterfly Activity Cards. Set was supposed to come with 72 pieces and we only got 68. There is not enough pieces to complete the activity cards, even if we did get the 72 pieces. For example: On many activity cards, 3 'charactors' of the same color are needed and only 2 of each color was provided and there are 6 different colors. In short, this set is useless if using it with coordinating Activity Cards. I would also say this set is too big and chunky for kids 4 years old and up. I'll be sending Activity Cards and Count and Sort Set back to Amazon. Disappointed."
+4539,1,NOT WORTH THE $$,"DVD WAS SO SCRATCHED - TOTALLY UNWATCHABLE - TOOK FOREVER TO GET IT TO PLAY AT ALL - MY TODDLER ENJOYED IT ONCE ON, BUT THE BAR/MAT TAKES UP TONS OF SPACE, SO MANY BETTER TOYS FOR THIS PRICE RANGE. I THREW IT AWAY AFTER INTITIAL USE AND OF COURSE NOW ""BELLA"" IS HER FAVORITE REQUEST."
+4540,2,Great for fans!,"If you are at all a meat loaf fan this is for you. This CD has almost all of his hits, all done live (although they don't realy feel live). The songs are a bit different than the previously recorded versions.His stories are fascinating, but really only worth listening to a couple of times.The songs are great, and if you are a fan of his you will love it. Too bad the dvd isn't available anymore. Is nothing sacred anymore? ;)Tracks include All Revved Up with No place to go, a spectacular and riviting new version of Life is a Lemon, the heart breaking You took the words right out of my mouth, he even answers what THAT is in his story for I'd Do Anything For Love (but I won't do that), Lawyers, Guns, and Money, More than you deserve, the ever powerful Heaven can Wait, Paradise by the Dashboard Lights (which is really fun here), Two out of Three Ain't Bad, Bat out of Hell, and Is Nothing Sacred (a new single version)Really, for the price here at AMazon, you could do a lot worse."
+4541,2,adolescents live,great c.d. some might say that these teenagers were musical genius's but i think that this album really shows you what punk was really about in the early 80's. raw uncut and most of all very powerful. good buy for punks in the making.
+4542,1,Waste of money and time!,Item worked once for less than a minute and never worked again. I guess I got what I paid for. Hopefully you wont make that same mistake buying this junk. It should be taken out of circulation.
+4543,2,LOVED IT,I can not count the amount of compliments and comments we got on this costume. Every where we turned people were stopping to woo and coo at our little man. I had no problem with the head fitting and hes got a good sized head. We did order a size bigger though. It didn't look bad at all. We loved it!
+4544,2,A very good book- one story on top of another,"This book is really wonderful. It all takes place upon an abandoned ship, where the main character, Roberto Del la Griva must overcome his imagination. You see his past filled with surprises. A wonderful story."
+4545,2,It's pretty good,"Garderobe Academy is about to have exams. Arika is worried about the written exam, but the wilderness survival exam is also trouble. Arika and Erstin are partnered up for the wilderness survival exam. Erstin gets injured during the test and Arika has to take care of her. The Aswald cyborgs also get in the way of the training. Arika ends up being hurt and Major Sergay save her. There is also an episode where Nina loses the watch that her father gave her. Arika and Nina end up in a big chase to recover it.Things are starting to get more intense. The characters and story are developing better as the series continues. I hope that this series end sup being amazing, but it still doesn't hold a candle to the original."
+4546,2,Nice Cam,"This is my first video cam so I'm speaking as a totally newcomer to this world.I must say it is a great camera with a great HD video quality compared to SD, although it is not very good with low light.This is a good product with very good characteristics."
+4547,1,Nancy Drew without the talent,"This so-called mystery is one of the most maddeningly awful books I've ever wasted time reading. Anyone with average intelligence and at least ten years of age will figure out most of it halfway through. The worst part is, it turns out to be no real mystery at all--no crime of any kind, just spurious atempts to raise tension as a young woman goes padding about an old house in the middle of the night, solving things. Ms. Seely should be ashamed of herself, and Avalon must publish almost any manuscript mailed in. Stay away from this dog."
+4548,2,Fave movie!,"Best. Movie. Ever. I love the historical information and the twists in this movie, it kept me interested for the entire film, LOVE IT and I'm so glad I was able to find it after years of looking. It's mine now!"
+4549,1,Average sound system,Unit does not have the individual frequency range control that I need. Also the programing is quite complex. Seems to me the sound is very hollow. Very pricey for what it is. All functions do operate ae described in the owners manual. Guess I needed to do more shopping.May be alright for an entry level Home theater system.
+4550,2,Awesome book. fun ideas,This book has so many wonderful ideas for games. Loved it and would highly recommend it
+4551,2,Blackmore confronts middle age with hauntingly lovely music,"Many Deep Purple fans were taken aback when Ritchie Blackmore, the original moody man in black prone to smashing Stratocasters and throwing water in lead singers' faces, entered his fifties, picked up a Yamaha acoustic and started walking through the woods wearing funky Medieval caps with a Stevie Nicks lookalike. Yet as soon as they popped this CD into their CD player, they knew it was not career suicide. Far from it. This CD will mesmerize you. Some songs attract my attention more than others (Ocean Gypsy drones on too long, while I wish Mond Tanz would never end). Candace Night's clear vocals soar above Ritchie's acoustic guitars, nicely layered. This is wonderful music for would-be minstrels of all ages."
+4552,1,easy read with no real purpose,"Dr. Robin Cook author of the scientific fiction novel Mutation seems to think it is interesting enough to write a whole book about genetic research. Not only does he write about genetic research but also introduces a chaotic family into his crazy story. It was not realistic or engaging and seems not to stretch the reader's disbelief. Which are essential traits of science fiction novels. Unfortunately this story had no definite theme because of the jumping from thought to thought. Science experiments would be a main discussion while family values would be present, making a theme hard to identify. The characters are also very unrealistic from both the science and family view of the story. For example a prodigy child created by his fathers experiments and mother who has no idea what is going on in her baby's life. Mutation is an easy read but not a suggested one if you like your story to capture your imagination."
+4553,2,This show keeps getting better and better!!!,"I didn't start watching the show until the second season, but now I own all of the seasons and love it! The overall show has gotten better every year. This show has a lot to offer. I love SciFi, but I need more than just SciFi. The plot and characters are fantastic. Can't wait to to see next season!!!"
+4554,1,Should Be Swept Away,"Scenario: Friend wanted a movie with sex and I wanted a horror movie. Compromise: Stormswept...supposed to be erotic horrorResult: We were both disappointed...very disappointed.The basic premise of the movie is that a group of people end up in a creepy old mansion which is haunted by a ghost that periodically takes over members of the group and thereby causes them to get extremely horny. Sounds intriguing but it is absolutely awful!!! This is as scary as a Disney movie...aside from the creepy house, nothing is remotely frightening. The erotic/sex part of the movie is anything but erotic or even arousing. The picture quality is bad, the acting is worse, and the plot is the worst. Stay away from this wretched flick!!!"
+4555,1,What a disappointment,"I purchased this DVD based on the reviews for it here on Amazon - and must admit to being perplexed as to how this movie could possibly have gotten the kind of reviews it did...for either version! It moves at a glacial pace, plot line is poor, and many of the scenes are so dark and poorly lit, that much is lost. If you haven't seen this movie, think twice before purchasing it unseen."
+4556,2,Two Types Of Stanley Black,"There's Stanley Black the Orchestra Leader and Arranger then there's Stanley Black the performer, pianist extrodinaire and his jazz band or should I say the West-Indian contemporary Jazz Band. If you love contempary music Stanley Black arrangements and his piano playing are some of the best. You can tell from this that Black loved the small club setting with a 4 or 5 piece group."
+4557,1,Very disappointed,My whole family loves Super Mario Bro. for the DS so we bought this. VERY disappointing. Nothing like super Mario very hard to play and figure out. Never play it waste of money
+4558,1,Bait and Switch,"I thought I ordered Original Bazooka as it says on the picture of the gum bucket and the title of the product in Amazon...read way down on the page in the fine print and you get the assorted flavors. I did not see that fine print. I ordered the product and in my order again it listed Original Bazooka. The package arrived and it was assorted. When I contacted Amazon, the rep looked and pointed out the fine print down below. I threw the tub away as even the original does not taste like original because the fruity flavor takes over. I was so disappointed I have not ordered anything from Amazon since---both the vendor and Amazon could have been more clear about what I was purchasing. The picture and title should match the product."
+4559,2,Awesome,This is a great new band that emerged from New Zealand. There music is original and sounds great. Mad props to Tyson and the boys for this piece of work.
+4560,1,Worthless,"Poor Gwen is rapidly running out of subcultures to leech from so this latest album seems to be a spray and pray of styles, hoping that one of them will stick.I predict: the most popular track will be the next ""style vision"" that she has. Either she'll continue to try and attach herself to the Japanese culture becoming a dried up bellweather of lackluster American talent against the likes of Kahimie and Puffy. Perhaps the more R&B;/hip hoppy tracks will be the popular ones and she'll bring back ghettofabulous, much to the horror of *everyone*.In any event, this CD is a waste of money filled with watered down ""appreciative"" (read: plagiarized) sounds from far more talented artists. Buy the originals instead."
+4561,1,Technical problem in DVD production,"DVDs 4,5,6 do not run on my dvd player because of blocked dvd-area code for Europe (Germany).DVDs 1,2,3 are running perfectly."
+4562,2,Descriptive and Moody,"Reminded me of a Graham Greene novel - maybe it was the location. Yes, it's sad and seems to go nowhere - kind of like real life sometimes. However, the author does a great job of creating atmosphere. I thought there would be more closure, there isn't - but, it's still a good read."
+4563,1,Didn't receive item,"I didn't get this order, did you credit my credit card if so email me with the conf. number and when the credit was given."
+4564,2,tiffany and co,"i like alot of their jewlery yes including there 1,000,000$ diamond jewlery too but im practical.I own like 4 items from their and i love it.This book is helpful if you like to know how the company started and about it etc.Its not like a book of all the jewlery they have.I mean the book isnt so fun to read but its intresting.Go ahead buy it!"
+4565,1,I'm sick to death of all the semantic insanity...,"So it sits there on my shelf, having defeated me twice. OK, maybe I'm a lazy bum, but I think I'm approaching the point where if another confused milquetoast hack tells me I *need* to read this book because TP is the best writer of the 20th century blah blah blah (a disgustingly de minimus claim) I'm going to go nuts."
+4566,2,NOT ASSEMBLED!,"It Looks Great in the picture and all of the materials are HIGH quality, but if you are unsure of you're wiring skills dont buy it because it does not come assembled. EVERYTHING else is TOP-NOTCH QUALITY! I reccomend it, just unpleased when I opened the box to find a bag full of parts."
+4567,2,Hey Pisano ...,"I saw this movie on television and enjoyed it.Danny Aiello is a Great actor and the plot was very catchy.As a matter of fact,once this DVD arrived I kept it in the player and watched it quit often.Alot of different things going on at the same time.I will say that if it were not for Aiello being in this movie I would have let it go but He starred in it and I enjoyed it.A little bit Italian,a little bit Cosa Nostra and a little bit Sausage and Peppers ... Enjoy this Movie !!!"
+4568,2,John Mayer,"Great acoustic CD. Easy listening with great song lyrics. There are a couple of songs that are on CD's I already have, but I love the acoustic versions"
+4569,2,NSYNC ROCKS,"NSync is the best band in ever. They blow away Backstreet Boys and 98o. I love this CD so much. I can't wait until NSync releases their new album. But if you havn't gotten this one, get it! NSYNC RULES!!"
+4570,1,FAKE CD,"Not only is this CD a very low-quality bootleg, it has several songs on here t.A.T.u never even SANG. The translations in the titles are atrocious, which ought to tip off even impulsive buyers. Not worth one red cent."
+4571,1,Poor Quality,"Did not work... bad quality ... kept stopping. Would never buy this again, just frustrated my baby. Looking for a good soother!"
+4572,2,Good product at reasonable price,"Though the output of this power supply is lower than the Apple supply, it seems to work fine--and it is very reasonably priced. Too bad that Amazon stopped carrying the supply."
+4573,1,hummm...,"hi there i have been a carpenter for 20 years, i bought this video because i like watching them and who knows i might learn somthing knew,,,,, my dislikes are.....1) while larry was cutting the 4x4 blocks for the girders he did not mark them with a speed square there for they can be out of square and cause one side to be low or higher the what the block was measured for.2)the way larry manoverred his skilsaw was a little on the scary side.3) while putting on the sub floor larry did not put any insulation under the floor, and that is code most any where.4)the stair stringers were off set by one inch, thats not a bascic set of stairs.5) also on the stairs larry put the stringers tight against the wall, every set of stairs i have seen there is eather a 1x4 or 2x4 at the bottom of the stringer and then put to the wall that way sheet rock can go down futher and carpet can be tucked.LIKES.... 1)layout, laying out the joist before cutting them, and hold nails all in the same direction. thanks..."
+4574,1,Consistenly Hard Cooked Soft Boiled Eggs Every Time,"Despite weeks of practice and dozens of eggs, we were unsuccessful in getting even one perfectly soft boiled egg. No matter what the water level (and experiment we did because the instructions are useless -- seriously) every egg came out overcooked. It is going in the garbage. Come to think of it, with Easter around the corner we may wait a couple days, because it will make perfect hard boiled eggs every time."
+4575,2,Very helpful and easy to understand.,"I am the first time coach of a second grade boys soccer team. This book was very easy to understand for the kids as well as myself. For kids that are relatively new to the game it explains positions, the different kinds of kicks and the all around basics of soccer without getting too technical. It has been a great aid for our team."
+4576,2,Yee-haw! Ida Red rules!,"This is the first compilation of Paul Dini's MUTANT, TEXAS comic stories. The star is Ida Red, a winsome yet spunky orphaned Texas gal who discovers amazing powers lurking just beneath her supposedly ""normal"" exterior. J. Bone's artwork has the timeless look of classic cartoons and the amusing supporting cast of talking armadillos, comical Texas politicians and villainous coyotes make this series a winner. I can't wait for more!"
+4577,1,so so made.,Compared to serta memory foam topper is not good. Cheap made. Pillows are good for car seat's topper for my son.
+4578,1,A huge disapointment...,"I give it two stars because the film looks great. The actions of many of the characters are absolutely stupid and when it treaded into Friday the 13th areas; the guy in the ruptured space-suit, toasted and walking around outside the ship and then fighting the others, I checked out. Also, when the ""scientist"" wanted to play with and pet the snake - worm creature, come on, give me an f'ing break. I didn't need a sequel to like this film; I needed a smart film, with characters NOT doing stupid things."
+4579,2,phenomenal performance natalie!,"can't imagine a more gut wrenching tortuous emotional scene than natalie grieving over her lost love, her breakdown, isolation, and heartbreaking attempt to check out is overwhleming... it was one deep intense moment after another, each yielding more pain and further escape to attempt the bleed out... killer movie, hard to compare with R&J due to the known ending and less contemporary dialogue... have seen this film several times and each provokes the same response, beyond sympathy and knowing there is no way back, ending so unsatisfying but assess they would most likely be incompatible after a short time given Deanie's high maintenance emotional IQ and Bud's clueless nature. ahhhh me, the poetry never really gelled the main theme imo, but the attempt was appreciated."
+4580,1,Could have been a good movie,"This movie begans with great promise and quickly dissolves into a incoherent, poorly edited mess. Spoiled rich girl uses her sexuality to get a job, scam an old man out of money and then frames another man for the his death. Pretty much a movie by the numbers. Acting is so so at best and richly deserved to go straight to video rental. Not worth adding to your home collection unless you enjoying seeing Neve Campbell nude."
+4581,2,Witty & hilarious,"This is a great show, it may take a little bit to get into it, but once you do, you'll be addicted."
+4582,2,Works fine,"I couldn't believe how cheap this was and expected it not to be of good quality, but it is a good quality cable and works just fine."
+4583,2,alphabet magnets,"These are better than lots of magnetic letters since the magnets are inside the toy and can't fall out and be swallowed. They also include lower case which gives the child two alphabets. They don't last as well as one might hope, however, because they are made of hard cardboard and the edges get mashed up before too long.Melissa & Doug Magnetic Wooden Alphabet"
+4584,1,"fairly nice, but not as pictured","I should have looked more closely at the description--the item is NOT what Amazon has pictured. For the price, it is not as nice as what is shown. Still, it's cute enough."
+4585,2,Fishy-fleshed Fun,"This was the third Carlton Mellick III book I've read and loved it. If you've ever been an outcast or enoyed being slightly insane then you will relate to the main character who possesses a child-like awe that is perfect for narrating this world of science fiction and the illustrations accompany his ""pictures tell more than words"" type of communication. Instead of the illustrations depicting a scene from the book, they add something additional through an abstract representation of something intangible such as ""This is how time travel smells"" or ""I have this taste in my mouth"". The characters are endearing and intersting and the writing style was easy to get into."
+4586,2,Tenenbaumtastic,"This movie is absolutely wonderful, if you are a Wes Anderson fan this will tickle you. If you have never had the pleasure of experiencing his work, now is your chance. Definitely one of my favorite movies of all time."
+4587,1,Sheets arrived with a stain!,"These sheets are of good quality material, but after opening them we noticed a one inch diameter stain (possibly a blood stain) on the fitted sheet. We needed this sheet immediately, so we laundered it with various stain-removers. The stain remains. The question is ... how could a ""new"" sheet have a stain on it. I would not buy from this vendor again."
+4588,1,does not work,"be cautious ordering low priced games, as this one does not work even though it stated it was tested and cleaned before shipment."
+4589,2,fantastic voyage...,"I really like this CD (released in 2001) - mainly for 5 tracks.First, the opener 'You are my starship' - OK, it's another rendition of the timeless classic. But believe me, this one is the best I've ever heard !!!Then, there are two good funky groovers: 'Ain't nuthin but a jam' and 'She's my Lady'.Finally, the mid-ballads: 'Girl you got a Body' (with its rich guitar all along) and consequently 'Oh what a night' (deep and very original). It's all about Love...I'm grateful that these guys continue to spread their modern sounds (like the Barkays or ConFunkShun for example)Congratulations for the Chase Design Group who made a beautiful front cover for the stuff.Keep On and best wishes !!!!!!!!!!!"
+4590,1,Chalk up another Burnt Motor,"Just adding to the LONG list of people who bought this router and watched it burn up after little to moderate use. I had mine for 3 yrs and am not a pro. THis router only saw occasional use over 3 yrs. The ring broke (as soon as the warrentee ran out of course)....made a ton of noise but kept running for a while. Then the lightning storm on the top and motor fried. Stunk up the whole house and now Im stuck with this pile.I have a lot of good tools and thought dewalt was a good brand, but Dewalt has now been added to my 'Never Again' list.I unfortunatly bought the 618 pak with all 3 bases and the nice case...which are now all a huge waste (anybody wanna buy em cheap? email me at [...]Im not going to pay to fix this thing..its a poor design and will only break again down the road.I guess ill buy a Bosch? Avoid Dewalt...maybe they 'used' to be good, but its clear from the experiences on this thread that they build a junk router."
+4591,1,Is lying now or was he lying in the past?,"In the past he praised the President, Now he slams him. Which is it? Is Clark lying now or was he lying in the past? I find the book to be political rubish clearly seen for what it is."
+4592,1,My Kindle in Italy,I bought my kindle to take on a 10 day trip to Italy. It was great to have more books along than I could read. I love its size and low weight. And the ability to change font size when the light was bad.
+4593,1,BAD,"VERY LOWER LEVEL THAN EXPECTED...SORRY, ALAN, BUT I GUESS YOUR ARTISTIC ABILITIES ARE NOT SHOWN IN THIS ALBUM"
+4594,2,Good,"12 Stones is a good small band. They haven't been together very long so some of the songs on their first song are similar in sound. They are great band, and I am disappointed that they got no recognition from the collaboration they did with Evanescene. Since they've haven't been together too long and signed a record contract shortly after you can guarantee that their next CD will be 5/5, they will have more time to record and will definetly sound amazing.Support this small band help'em make it big they deserve it! Buy The CD! It's Great!"
+4595,1,Leave out the fortune......,"I really do NOT recommend this book, and I do not like it at all. The Bob-Whites go on a vacation to New York, and at the airport Trixie meets a fortune teller who gives her a purse with a fortune. As it happens, everything single thing in the fortune comes true,even the mystery part. And whats worse, the Bob-Whites aren't against that, or worried about that! I have 15 of the Trixie Belden mysteries, and I like pretty much all the other ones quite a lot! This book would be really great if they just left out the fortune part."
+4596,1,defective DVD,Movie is excellent after I bought the DVD it would just play up to scene 14 and skip to the end..they replaced it and it was the same thing.. I finally had to go rent the movie and watch it...strong performance by both actors...movie is a ***** (five star) but not on DVD
+4597,1,NOT 'bare' wood as shown,"The yoyo pictured is clearly 'bare wood' with a stripe on it. The ad says the yoyo may NOT be the color offered. SO that infers either the wood is darker or lighter and/or the stripe may be blue or orange or what not.But when the yoyo got here 9 days and $5.00 later, it was a PAINTED yoyo. NOT what is represented.Because I searched long for this and this was the only company offering bare wood, I bought from this seller. Right now I await contact from them. Their phone number: ""does not accept calls at this time"" so I had zero luck s/w them.My point: buying from other sellers on Amazon is not the best idea. Sure this was a Duncan, but NOT what was shown."
+4598,1,SLOW SLOW AND WAS MORE LIKE WAR OF THE ROSES,"THIS AUTHOR NEEDS TO STICK TO THE PRACTICE OF LAW......HE SEEMS TO TAKE PERSONAL SITUATIONS,,,, FAR TO AN EXTREME........EITHER A ROMANCE, OR THRILLER.....I SAY NOT EITHER."
+4599,2,In This Corner,"The Dells are probably the most underrated r&b group to play a significant role in music that came after. They have an impressive resume that ranged from 1966 - 1974, at least for their classics that are included on On Their Corner. The highlight of this release is ""I Wish It Was Me You Loved"". There are plenty of other strong points on here as well that once you hear them you'll say, ""oh, that was The Dells!"" There's a variety on here as far as vocal range from the quartet and selection of tempo that they have made history with for black music."
+4600,2,Any of this Lady's SciFi is great!! This is my pick!...,"The interaction between the characters is very good. Great plot!! If you like her romances, give her SciFi a try (she also writes as Elizabeth Lowell)."
+4601,2,An Introduction To David Icke,"This is a smaller size book (compared to the other books by David) and this is a definite ""introductory"" book to David's ideas and his philosophy. This book will ease anyone into to his other works without blowing somebody's ""reality circuit"". The ideas presented are simply and easy to understand and you might find yourself saying ""hey, that's true!"". One of his classic examples is featured in this book about the herd of sheep being compared to the human race. Quite eye opening if you've never heard it before.If you'd like to expand you view of life and what's happening on this little planet, but haven't read any other David Icke books...this is the book for you. If you've already read any of his later books (and the truth shall set you free, the biggest secret, children of the matrix)...then this is a book for you only if you are a ""big fan"", if not, skip it."
+4602,2,Shop Girl,"A quick & easy book that reads well. Throughout the book the main character, Mirabelle, leaves you feeling terribly sorry for her. She is a helpless character, but in such a naive and innocent way. The relationships in the book are quite interesting & leave you wondering if such relationships actually exist. I like the way the characters transform and it is interesting to see what relationships come to fruition and in what form they take on. Definitely recommend."
+4603,1,Garbage,"This chest is proof that there is no way to get off cheap, when looking for a place to store your children's toys. While there may be some actual real wood on this thing, most of it is pressboard or other poor product. The hinges are held in by small screws, two of which have already fallen out of their pre-drilled threads. We had to replace them with larger screws. I doubt these will hold, either, as the wood is of poor quality. As for fitting--the cover is askew and impossible to align properly because it is predrilled. My advice is to spend a little more. You'll be happy you did. It would have been nice to keep this for another use, but the minute he outgrows it, we'll use it for firewood."
+4604,1,"""Cave Girl"" (1985)","plot outline:in search of the ""perfect"" woman, a bumbling anthropology student accidently travels back in time 25,000 years, and meets his dream woman...a beautiful cavegirl.But she quickly makes it clear he must use all of his modern-day wiles if he is to win her love."
+4605,2,Great fun,"Here's the setup: A team of quirky, charming characters track down objects with curious- perhaps magical- powers, and stash them in a secret warehouse watched over by a mysterious character. Sound familiar? It should. Back in 1987 Fox ran a series called Friday the 13th in which a pair of cousins tack down cursed objects and return them to an antique shop that had belonged to their late uncle. The original show was original and downright spooky, and Warehouse 13 manages to be be as spooky as the original show with a good deal more humor. I discovered it while poking around the Sci-Fi shows on Netflix, and it's become a favorite of mine. Highly recommended for weekend late night viewing with friends."
+4606,1,Amazon reneged on price,"I ordered one of these from Amazon on March 18, 2006 for $1,282.49. On March 21, Amazon told me: ""Though we had expected to be able to send this item to you, we've since found that it is not available from any of our sources at this time. We realize this is disappointing news to hear, and we apologize for the inconvenience we have caused you.""I immediately revisited the web site, where it was still listed for sale, but now for $1,399. Amazon simply chose to renege on the price it offered, and lied about it in the email it sent me. I'm sure this isn't legally ""bait and switch"" advertising, but it's very disappointing as a business practice."
+4607,2,NICE-FOR THE PRICE,WORKS WELL FOR THE INTENDED PURPOSE.ONE SCREW WAS MISSING AND ONE WHEEL FALLS OFF WHEN MOVED.WE FOUND A WORKABLE SCREW IN THE GARAGE AND THE WHEEL DOESN'T MATTER SINCE WE DON'T INTEND TO MOVE IT MUCH.MATCHES THE OTHER FURNITURE WELL.
+4608,1,junk hose,bought this hose last yr. JUNK this yr. So I went to sears and bought 2 craftsman hoses 20.00 ea. that were on sale. life time replacement from sears even if you run over it with a mower. Beat that deal. last hose I'll pay for untill sears goes under.
+4609,2,It's System!!!,"There really is no band in the world who sounds like System Of A Down.The musicianship of the band continues to grow and progress with this album. Daron has a much more apparent presence on this album.. His voice makes an amazing contrast with the lead singer Serj's. Though this does take some time to get used to. Daron's voice is quiet bizarre and very much an acquired taste.The album is only 38 minutes long. Most CD's hold anywhere from 75 to 80 minutes. While it works well with Hypnotize, I can't help but feel like these albums contain ""filler tracks,"" which could have been dropped for one single and more solid album. The content of the song is satisfying. The political message of each passionately sung tune is much more clearly written than previous albums.It's definitely worth picking up, the kind of music you'll get addicted to. Though I do think Hypnotize was the better album.Favorite songs:Lost in Hollywood, Soldier Side, Violent Pornography, Revenga, Sad Statue, and Question!"
+4610,1,Where is it?,I am being thanked for purchasing an item on March 12th which I STILL have not received today April 13th. I have already sent an email to request that this situation be corrected and nothing has happened.
+4611,2,SFIJ,"Ok, not enough vowels to describe this album. Nothing like her first, and even gets strange. Her once, angry and aggressive, voice is not found in the album. However, her lyrics are still striking the heart of the people. ""Front Row"" is rather fast and poppy. The rest are like haunty and spooky. It is worth 10.00. Enjoy!"
+4612,1,Don't waste your money,"My father-in-law spent over $40 for this toy and we unfortunately found out it was a huge waste of money. There is a definite reason they are now on sale everywhere. The dog is a jerky, mechanical, non-cuddly robot that does nothing but frustrate my 2 kids (ages 4 and 5) and frazzle my nerves because they both resort to shouting at it when it doesn't do what they want. There are hundreds of other toys out there that are more worth your hard earned $$."
+4613,1,Not one good thing about this bra.,"This bra is terrible. The straps are ridiculously long (twice the length of any other bra I own when I have them adjusted to the longest point). There are extra ""underwires"" on the sides of cups. Imagine parentheses around your nipples. Its hideous and uncomfortable.And if you are considering taking the straps off their are 2 little tabs that stick out from the top if the bra."
+4614,2,The one King book I didn't finish...,"I have read at least a dozen titles by King including some of his best like Salem's Lot, The Stand, It, The Talisman, 11/22/63, and more. This was the only King novel that I couldn't get through. His descriptions of the terrifying attacks on the helpless protagonist (Paul Sheldon) were so thoroughly terrifying, I couldn't go on. All of which isn't to say it's not a great book. It's just that this time...for me...I couldn't finish it. A little TOO real world if you get my take."
+4615,2,Inspirational cooking book,"I can not say enough good about this book. It was written during rationing in WWII and written to inspire Americans to get excited about cooking. It has changed the way I look at all aspects of cooking. MFK Fisher has chapters on boiling water, cutting vegetables, and other seemingly mundane cooking tasks which she really brings to life.After reading this book, I have an entirely new outlook on cooking. I highly recommend it to any new cooks, aspiring cooks, or anyone who enjoys cooking at all."
+4616,1,Recurrent frustrations,"The bobbin holder is a nightmare. Often won't successfully rotate the thread far enough, or the machine pops out the bobbin holder."
+4617,1,oh,"I would give her zero stars!You call this music?Give Mylene Faermer a try, or Emilie Simon, or even Zazie. Not LORIE. Eww. Weekend is the worst song I ever heard."
+4618,2,Good instrumental,"THis is a good instrumental bluegrass album. It is not as good as ""ultimate Pickin'"" . That was an amazing album but this isn't bad."
+4619,2,TOO FUNNY!,I had seen this dvd over a friend's house and I laughed until I cried! I IMMEDIATELY went home and ordered it. I love Amazon already and the movie arrived promptly as always and I am still laughing.
+4620,1,Frame needed glue! Not well made,"The frame is a standard two sided picture frame. Nothing fancy. You slip the two pictures (all it will hold) in from the side. Unfortunately, the dowel connectors are not quite fat enough to hold the side of the frame, so I had to add so elmers glue.Too bad it is not a two sided (or one sided) digital picture frame -- that would be really cool."
+4621,1,Boring and unrefreshing,"Map Of The World is incredibly boring and uninviting. The story line is a sad one for sure,however, one loses the sense of what is really going on with Alice. It seem to me that the author could not make up her mind as to which main story to stick with. I liked Theresa character and felt her heart warming spirit. Alice and Howard could definitely benefit from parenting classes. Overall, I found the book to be lost in a lot of rambling."
+4622,1,No Scientific Method Here,"If you want to read about an amalgam of theories that do not fit all the facts, this is your book. Besides, all the theories proposed by Clancy have been watched long ago by abduction researchers and all have been discarded. Although clancy claims that her work is scientific, there is no science in her book."
+4623,2,DVD IS HERE!,hey all! your wish came true.. do a search.. the dvd series are here!!!.. :) and season one is a great buy!
+4624,1,Pads don't stick and it kills batteries,"I like the idea of the product, but I find two major problems with it.. First, after I took the first pad off, I've now tried 5 new pads and the first pad basically gunked up the velco so bad that nothing will stick to it now.. I've tried cleaning off the velcro, but it's basically just dirt cheap velcro. So now I put the pad on the floor and push it around with out sticking.. Can't tape it it (this gets wet, remember).. Second, I find out that my heavy duty rechargable batteries only last about 4 days.. Maybe a sum total of 15 minutes of mopping time and a few minutes of actually spraying time.. It seems like there is a serious current leak in this pump system...I've used it about a dozen times now and I'm throwing it away... It's a good product idea, but I must have gotten a bad one since others have had better luck because this was a pure waste of money.. I think i'll stick to a standard mop for cleaning and get a plain old swiffer for dust..."
+4625,2,Fresh Prince and Jazzy Jeff are hip hop's Dynamic Duo,"I still remember hearing this on the local pop station when I came out in April 1988. I was turning 15, and that one song ""Parents Just Don't Understand"" still sticks out in my mind as the best song of 1988."
+4626,2,Cloisonne earrings,These earrings are very pretty! I really like the butterflies painted on them w/the black painted background. I would recommend this items for everyone!
+4627,2,Louder Than A Bomb,"This is an outstanding CD the splendid efforts from Chuck D on this Album are outstanding Songs like ""Bring the noise"" and ""Don't beleive the hype"" bring the gangster rap home This is an outstanding album and it must be bought."
+4628,1,"rehash of secondary ideas from original series stories, poor script, clunking, a kitchen sink, a mess","strong fan here while the series was on, at least till season 5 or 6. even own a lot of the dvds, and haul them out once or twice a year and rewatch with much enjoyment and appreciation. this film was a worst episode stretched to film length time limit. rehash plot themes (organs, experiments, visions), poor script, clunking, an unusual religious/clerical abuse/same sex relationship/russian psychopaths angle. kind of a mess. can't anyone say no to chris carter? or at least lock him in a room till he comes up with a resolution of the fundamental themes/arcs of the show that has the insight, substance, and flair of years 1 to 3? if not, enough is enough. long live californication and bleak house!"
+4629,1,Looks and feels cheap,"I bought this when it was a gold box deal and I was so disappointed. Everything about it looked cheap. It looked like something a pre-teen would buy from Claire's in a mall. Needless to say, I returned it immediately."
+4630,2,A little silly of course.,"This film isn't as bad as some of the pro reviewers have written. Obviously this isn't the kind of film that must be taken seriously. If you approach it as an innocent diversion, it can prove to be - well, an innocent diversion."
+4631,2,"like a ball, stoned, imagine 2, is it me.","all those four songs have so much in common... to how we are all treated in society today and the thruth is ...it does come back to us all... Bobby, my opinion about the style of your songwriting is that it is very deep and meaningful but, unfortunately the people this days care only about sex and money (the stock market). So... keep on going! ...your doing a great job! I don't see to many deep thinking writers any more and it makes me feel good to know that you do it."
+4632,2,The costs of war,"This CD, with lyrics by Robert Service, who witnessed the horrors of war up close, and music by Navy veteran Joe McDonald, is a stark reminder of the true costs of war. It couldn't be more timely."
+4633,1,unreal situations,"The screenplay is poor. The characters do not act like real people, especially the Joan Allen character. This character does not know how to file a missing persons report, does not know what ballet is, does not work, has her daughters cook the dinner, and does nothing all day but take showers, drink, hop in and out of bed, and be mentally and physically abusive of family and friends. I could feel nothing for this character. The movie is a comedy in the sense that you will repeatedlylaugh because of its ineptness."
+4634,1,No Care was taken when package was shipped,"If I could give this item, shipped by Jensen Distributing less than 1 star I would.This item not only arrived shattered in pieces, but it's replacement also arrived broken in several hundred pieces. The box contained no padding what-so-ever and there were no fragile warnings attached to the box.Amazon refused to ship a third tank out, citing ""Serious unresolved issues"" with the distributer.The shipper abviously has no clue on how to ship the ceramic products that they sell. Save yourself the time and fustration and avoid purchasing this or any product shipped by Jensen Distributing.Crane Plumbing Galaxy Lite 12-Inch Vitreous China Toilet Tanks #3652"
+4635,1,Bought 2 - Ripped on first use,"This is an absolute waste of money, the first one ripped on the first run. Then I had an exchange, and the second one ripped after a few weeks. The plastic screen is brittle and glued in. I do not Reccommend this product. Sort your act out Belkin."
+4636,2,It works like a champ!!,Okay so I never write reviews. This product is so good I had to break out the keyboard.1) Very powerful2) Good cord length (20' roughly)3) Again great suction powerBuying a another now for Father's Day!
+4637,1,Seller not not up front with return policy at time of sale,"The seller did not disclose Region 2 as india/africa location for viewing. Seller did know the item was being shipped to California. In sales there is no reference to regions locations to view product purchased. Had I known that there were specific regions for videos or a graph showing the regions I may not have spent $30.00 plus dollars for a movie I can not view. When I asked to return product, I was notified that if it were returned unopened I could return it. How would I know that if on their return policy at the time of sale, they had not mentioned that. Also how would I know I could not view it if I had not opened it to find out?"
+4638,1,Poorly assembled collection of instructions,"Too many models covered and not enough details for each car/procedure. Instructions for very specific procedures often have no pictures. If I knew what they were refering to, I might be able to follow the instructions. This book assumes a level of knowledge that would negate the need for this book. I found it a waste of money."
+4639,2,Top one!! Mad for it,Why do Yankees always put Oasis down eh? They are the Greatest band ever. I live in the same City as they did and I'm listening to their music 24/7 People just get jealous of their success. If anyone agrees or disagrees e-mail me instantly!!!!
+4640,1,AVOID - An absolute PIECE OF JUNK,"Been using Norton Internet Security for the last 4 years. No real problems except for obvious sluggishness of my PC after installing it but okay I can put up with that. My PC was always stand alone with an internet connection but recently installed a little home Network - and thats when the nightmares began. This product will NOT allow me to share a folder on my network. Have scoured the internet for solutions, which was an eye opener as LOTS of people have had similar problems with this product, spent 3 hours with some symantec technical ""support"" guy located in India and I still have the problem. On top of that it is almost impossible to remove from a computer once installed unless you hack your registry, and lastly one of the worst things is you CANNOT kill the cc* processes that it spawns. My solution to my problem was to buy myself a copy of ZoneAlarm Internet Security and lo and behold have had no problems whatsoever."
+4641,2,Comfortable,"These sandals are comfortable and durable. I have them on as I write this review. No need to go on and on. Buy your own pair, relax and enjoy."
+4642,2,Leatherman WAVE nylon sheath,"I own a Leatherman WAVE tool (an excellent multi-purpose tool) and the nylon sheath that came packaged with the tool. The cover is a sturdy, thick tear-resistant nylon, with a belt loop and a velcro closure. The belt loop provides easy access, especially handy when in an awkward position and in need of your tool quickly. My only complaint is that the belt loop is fixed, and rather small making it difficult to attach to my workbelt (as opposed to a velcro loop which can be easily attached/unfastened). Overall, this holder is an excellent accessory to have for your WAVE tool."
+4643,2,A Winner!,"Hard to beat this Tetsubin teapot on price, size and quality. I needed this 40 ouncer to brew large quantities of tea for family and friends, and am enjoying the convenience of having ths teapot along with a large cast iron warmer to keep a pot of tea handy at all times during the day."
+4644,2,Very Handy,"It's very handy to have so many features in such a small size. The memory stick size of 8MB which comes with the package is never sufficient if you wanna use all the features of the camera; Sony should put at least 64MB of memory in the pack.The CCD and auto detection for the settings is slow most of the time. The battery is not sufficient when you feel free to use the flash; you can have 40 shots most with the flash and the display on. If you plan to buy this camera, it's a great choice but order 128MB memory and an extra battery as well."
+4645,2,drive tray,"This drive tray is very easy to install. It took no more than 5 minutes, and works very well."
+4646,1,Very disappointed.,"Others seem to have had a much better experience with this item, and we can't understand why. When assembling the table, it quickly became clear that it was poorly made and the components were badly engineered. For example, one of the bars would not accept the screw that the manufacturer provided for it - the screw would not bite. The dowels were not well sanded and seemed as if they could cause splinters. We decided it wasn't worth continuing the assembly and returned it. Also note, the shelves are made of a very thin composite wood and are flimsy. This thing is overpriced and unsafe."
+4647,2,my review!,i have yet to open the cologne but i have no doubt it smells lovely! especially the brand it is. it's a gift for my dad. the transaction was quick and easy and they delivered the product as soon as they promised. they also included a nice little gift as a thank you! i would buy from amazon.com and this vendor again!
+4648,1,REV drive not compatible with Vista Disaster Recovery,"I attempted to store a backup from Vista Complete PC Backup & Restore on the REV drive and received the error message ""Media is not UDF"". Storing a Disaster Recovery Image is the reason I purchased the drive. The drive is excellent for straight copying of files, but is not good for use with third party software. I talked to a Tech. support Rep., and he gave me the usual run around, saying if files can be copied to it, the drive is fine. They said I should call Microsoft."
+4649,1,Fine Print,When receiving this item it was fuzzy dice however it was not in the same color that was advertised. Was not as impressed as I thought I would be.
+4650,2,Irish Crystal: A Nuala Anne McGrail Novel,This one is as good as all of the other Nuala Anne Stories. Can't wait for the next one.
+4651,1,Inferior Product,"The Pro Form line from Nordic Ware is a big disappointment. I was so happy to see this bundt pan at this price because I didn't want to pay almost $30 for the heavy cast aluminum version. Unfortunately, it performs just about the same as other $6 low price pan which makes this overpriced as is. The trouble with this pan is that the design is not molded deep enough so that the cake doesn't come out with the clean clear lines that the pictures would suggest. It's also awfully light; feels very flimsy. Finally, don't be fool by the picutre on page, it shows the heavy cast version with deep indented lines, the real Pro Form version doesn't look this good."
+4652,2,LONG LIVE INSPECTOR CHAN OF THE HONOLULU P.D!,"It's been 3 years since Charlie Chan films were knocked off the Fox Movie channel thanks to the meddling of the P.C. special interest groups. Well, the wait has paid off as these films are coming to dvd. This first collection will not only consist of four great films: Charlie Chan In London (1934), Charlie Chan In Paris (1935), Charlie Chan In Egypt(1935) and Charlie Chan in Shanghai (1935). But among the bonuses, we get Eran Trece, a Spanish Language Charlie Chan film made in (1931) Here's a list of all the extras in this set:The Legacy of Charlie Chan Featurette - 15minsIn Search of Charlie Chan Featurette - 20 minsThe Real Charlie Chan Featurette - 20 minsEran Trece Fullscreen Feature (1931) - 79 minsCharlie Chan In London Theatrical TrailerEran Trece Theatrical TrailerKudos to Fox Home Video for having the backbone to finally release these films to us mystery lovers. Hopefully, Mr. Moto will soon follow."
+4653,1,Don't buy!,"Lousy sound-mix, Mr. Offord must have been asleep (or stoned out of his mind)at the desk.It sounds like members of the Moraz, Howe and Anderson families were battling over the sound controls during production - and the Morasses dominated most of the time.The camera usually gets it right, so you see where the action is, still you hear the wrong instrument playing, which is very frustrating.The worst rockumentary I've seen so far."
+4654,2,good slasher,instead of the lack of creativity that most slashers have this film is good. the style is wonderful and the charecters are real. they really got good actors for this movie. has lots of twists and you can tell where i know what you did last summer got there idea. the film had some scary parts. i would recomend this.
+4655,2,Highly Recommend this book 2 weeks prior to test date,Many people consider the Performance Tuning Exam to be the hardest of the series. I knew going into the test that there are many views and ratios that needed to be memorized. The book also gave a focus point to know what is important and what is not allowing for proper use of time when your test date is just around the corner.
+4656,2,Not Just A Date Movie,"If you are guy who has had a girlfriend at anytime since April, you probably were dragged to see this movie. In which case you liked it,......but you didn't want to tell her.I was one of those guys and of course i like the movie. It is about culture, the Greek culture of course. It succeeds where many big budget love stories fail. It has a solid plot and it really has an fresh idea. Of course we have seen these types of love stories before, but this one catches and makes you care about the lives of these people involved. Oh and did i mention the fact that it is really FUNNY. I will not ruin it for those who have not seen the movie, but it is for everyone who likes a good laugh and who just wants to walk a way from a movie with a good feeling afterwards. Maybe thats the appeal of this movie, we just all need to feel good right now. This movie is a treat to all.I recommend the movie for movie fans of all genres..."
+4657,2,Useful in Stimulating Ideas,"I judge a book like this one by whether it stimulates ideas I can use in my business. Since my business is very much effected by the ideas in Blur, I found it very rewarding. I learned much that will cause me to adjust my business to be more competitive in the market of the future. If you are in a position to use this material, this may prove to be a very valuable book. If you are just reading for pleasure, it may not be the best book of its type. I read ""The Death of Distance"" at the same time as this book, and I found ""Blur"" many times more useful in generating ideas. This is subjective; however, a creative person may find this evaluation useful."
+4658,2,Good but....,"You certainly can't fault any performances in this film. Cate Blanchett is superlative. She fascinates. The story and characters pull you in. But it has a strange sort of pacing to it, where just as you feel it's getting started, it ends. It's like you go out to a nice restaurant, have a cocktail and an appetizer, a salad, they pour the wine for the main course.....and then bring you the check."
+4659,2,"Every "" want to be author"" should read this book",Most first time authors know ZERO on how to write and sell their first book. This book tells you how. If you are even thinking of being an author- get this book!Rick Frishman Pres. Planned TV Arts (NYC) Co-author GUERRILLA PUBLICITY & GUERRILLA MARKETING FOR WRITERS
+4660,2,Basic Book,"This book is less of an in-depth look at the AVID software and more of an orientation to the systems and procedures of digital editing. It's well written and laid out - but if you're looking for more nuts and bolts about the editing software itself, this is not the best book."
+4661,1,Useless Without Pictures,"While I will not discuss the merits of this book, I will make a comment regarding the fact that the Kindle edition DOES NOT INCLUDE any photos, nor does the description warn buyers of this fact. I wish there was a way to get my money back, and I wish Amazon would be better about providing this type of detail."
+4662,2,Black and Decker Iron,This is one of the best irons I have ever owned. I had a Rowenta before this one and I ended up donating it to Goodwill. I hated that iron. It was overrated. This iron is so easy to use with the digital readouts for selecting fabric types. I highly recommend this iron.
+4663,1,Not entirely original...,"Actually everything in the book IS helpful, and a OK read... but most of the material is FREE on the net already.The stuff from ""The Layguide"" was mirrored on all kinds of websites all over the place before it ever became print. If you search for keywords like ""layguide"" and ""player guide"" on the net, you will find this stuff is basically plagaurized. It was just a compilation of a bunch of usenet posts.Now, if you really want something in print, and original too, do yourself a favor now and go buy ""The Art of Seduction"" by Robert Greene, also available here on Amazon.com. The guy researched great seducers and seductions throughout history, and came up with types of seducers, the stages of seduction, etc. And his work is entirely original as well."
+4664,2,ready to care for puppies,"I got this game for the interactive point and the fact that I love dogs. I didn't realize that if you get this game it reacts like a real puppy. You need to feed it, give it water, take it out and train it. It reacts if don't tend to it by running away. it is fun because you can enter conests for cash, play with other people that have the game and the ds. The game even rates you on what kind of trainer you are. It is fun but be prepared for the long term care of this puppy."
+4665,2,"Hammockville, Tx","I would recomend this product to anyone who like to chill. Easy to set up anywhere, and exceptionally comfortable. Easily worth the money."
+4666,2,Nifty little grabber and non-skid pad,"This is a neat little product; I have several of them.Pros:*Price is right.*More than one to a package.*A compact little tool.*Multiple uses: it not only opens jars, but can be used to keep vases and such from skidding on table surfaces.Cons:*It can't handle the heaviest duty jobs like my vacuum-sealed fruit jar, although sometimes I can manage if I hold the base of the jar with one, and the top of a jar with a second gripper."
+4667,1,Isn't concrete.,"I'm not arguing against Evolution and I'm not a Creationist, but couldn't a higher power have created evolution? Like stacking dominoes and watching them fall."
+4668,2,Great Product // Battery Backup Feature A+,Great product especially for the price.Battery backup is a must. Not sure why other reviewers noted flimsy parts/battery area as I have been unable to locate anything wrong with the unit i received.
+4669,1,They send me the wrong shoe.,I bought this shoe thinking it would be the Predator but when I got the box it was a different shoe inside. Not even a soccer shoe. I should have known there was something fishy with that price. 3 weeks later I have not got my money back yet. Amazon let me down this time.
+4670,2,She keeps me coming back,"This is my fourth book by Francine Rivers and as usual, it was not what I expected. I really enjoyed this story, though I thought that the journal entries would be more intertwined with the action in the present, I really enjoyed them. I did feel that the husband got off a little easy and perhaps didn't grow as much as he could have, but it was true to his personality. For him, he'd gone a long way. I would have liked to know more about some of the ladies and the club and what happened to them and if they were impacted by the main character's growing faith. All in all, it was an engaging read and kept me thinking long afterwards. That is what I love about Mrs. Rivers' books--that they draw me to pray and think."
+4671,1,Ripped off by Cuisinart,"Thirty years ago I purchased a basic Japanese made rice cooker. It was wonderful, made perfect rice year after year after year. A few years ago I moved to Costa Rica and one of my most trusted appliances came with me...the now ""old"" rice cooker. It continued to work here until it just burned out and died. I went looking for a new rice cooker. I liked the the look of the ""over priced"" Cuisinart rice cooker so what the heck, a rice cooker is a rice cooker and why not get one that looks good!I took the hook and purchased the Cuisinart ""over priced"" rice cook. WHAT A PIECE OF JUNK! AND TO THINK, THEY HAVE THE NERVE TO PUT THEIR NAME ON IT. BOILS OVER AND NEVER MAKES REALLY NICE FLUFFY RICE. THERE IS NO PRICE LOW ENOUGH THAT SHOULD ENCOURAGE ANYONE TO BUY A CUISINART RICE COOKER. NOW I WOULD BE VERY, VERY CAREFUL TO EVEN CONSIDER ANY CUISINART PRODUCT!"
+4672,1,ELVIS DIDN`T DESERVE A BOOK LIKE THIS !,"Elvis didn't deserve a book like this. It has only gossip, no music at all. We don't learn anything about rock'n roll history, only in the apeendixe there is an Elvis discography and fimgraphy."
+4673,2,Love this book!,"I have a copy of this on my Kindle, and I love it. It is nice to read when on a long walk, just plop down on a bench and read. It is one of his better books/essays in my opinion, and is fairly short. It should be required reading for anyone who considers themselves well read."
+4674,1,Excelente diseño pero no funciona correctamente,"Vivo en Colombia y compré este prodcuto por que lo promocionó una revista de tecnologia de nuestro pais llamada ENTER. Fue muy facil de instalar, pero desde la primera vez que lo instale'en mi computador el la musica que reproduce en el equipo de sonido tiene caidas constantes. Escribà a logitech y no me dieron respuestas satisfactorias. Este producto solo funciona si el emisor y el receptor se ven de lo contrario hay constantes caidas. De otra parte el sonido de reproducción es muy regular."
+4675,2,Good overview,Both of my children are currently in college and this book helped ensure we covered all our financial bases. Very well rounded.
+4676,2,One of the most overlooked flicks of my lifetime,"Gould plays one of his best roles as a bank teller who holds out a wad of cash from a psychotic bank robber. The catch is, the bank robber (Christopher Plummer) finds out how much was really lost at the bank, and it doesn't jibe with his loot. It makes for a suspenseful, terrifying story that keeps you on your toes. Just when you think you got the ending figures out...."
+4677,1,Poetry To Remenber,"This Translation of one of the greatest works of world literature is not as good as the Robert Fagles translation, which I ratr Five star."
+4678,2,This is a great book for beginners!,I loved the recipes and nutritional information. There is even a list of manufacturers in the back of the book.
+4679,2,Great choice!,"I consider myself a professional amateur photographer, but I really needed one good lighting handbook - I found it with this one! It begins at the beginning, but takes you far enough so you can venture out and be creative on your own."
+4680,2,"Some Great '60s-'70s Pop, Some Filler","For this 50-something listener, Hollies' peak represented by 'Bus Stop', Carrie Anne,' and 'He Ain't Heavy' is pure pleasure. But some of the other '60s songs on this comprehensive compilation sound dated or like pale imitations of better British bands of the era.Probably better off getting a leaner album with just their best songs. And at their best, the Hollies were sublime. Allen Clark, Tony Hicks and of course Graham Nash all contributed to a great pop sound."
+4681,1,"2 stars for cuteness, 0 stars for usefulness...","Well, I guess I really don't get the point. If you don't want your iPod scratched w/use, put it in a case. Then it's covered WHILE you're using it and you can still work all the buttons. With this, you slide the bare-naked iPod out to use it - risking scratches from the sock itself and from dropping the iPod while it's out of the sock. I was hoping it would be large enough to slide my iPod into while it's in its case and hold one of those tiny thumbtack microphones so I wouldn't lose it. But my iPod nano 4th gen hangs out of it 1/4"" when it's not in its case. So I'd risk the end getting scratched up and it's not long enough to close, so if it were in my pocket or purse it'd slip right out and....get scratched. So, again, what is the point?? I'm just glad I spent $2.78 on the set on eBay instead of paying Apple's price..."
+4682,2,A sweet and happy movie,"Pollyanna is a perfect movie to watch on a rainy day, with a cup of tea and a cozy blanket.The story centres around Pollyanna who becomes an orphan and moves to her aunt. She's a very happy girl who wants to help others to be happy as well. When becoming an orphan she moves in with her aunt in a little english town. Pollyannas aunt is only on of the people in the town who has experienced some bad things in life and therefor is somewhat bitter. It doesn't take long before everyone is affected by her big heart and start open up their own. They soon have the opportunity to repay Pollyanna for her goodness when she has a terrible accident...I would recommend this movie to everyone who wants to enjoy a warm and funny story. It's a perfect film to see with the whole family - Pollyanna will brighten your heart as well!"
+4683,1,A glider pilot redeems himself during a daring rescue,"When vertigo dashes Steve's hopes of becoming an airline pilot, he discovers the world of sailplanes, or gliders. But when he attempts to rescue a downed pilot high in the Sierras, will his old dizziness return?A very boy adventure from 1957, with lots of squared jaws and manly facing of facts. The glider information is interesting, the rescue is exciting, and Steve's disappointment over his vertigo is realistic and affecting."
+4684,1,Disappointed in movie,"I was really looking forward to seeing this movie. When I watched it I was REALLY disappointed. Michelle Williams performance was outstanding. It took so long to lay the foundation for the movie, I found it boringggggggg."
+4685,2,Classic,I have had many copies of this recording over the years and it continues to be a great listen everytime. I like to listen to this on my harley and cruise. Good Jams. Never gets old.
+4686,1,Hard to Follow - Needs an Editor,"This book was obviously written by a first time novelist. Too many characters, ill developed plot - in general a waste of time (and money)! Hopefully the author has kept his day job! The most irritating part of the book are the trite sayings that are mistated. If you are going to use a well-known saying, possibly you would want to say it the way in which it became well known!From one author to another - hire an editor (or a ghost writer)."
+4687,1,"Don't ever buy K-Tel stuff, it's never the original artists!","I am not writing this because I work or represent a competitor of K-Tel, I'm just writing this because I've spent too much money on their albums that were advertised as being the original tracks from the original artists and found out later I wasted my money. NONE of the albums I've found on Amazon.com with the K-Tel logo on them have the original artists performances of the songs. None. They must be making a lot of money ripping people off."
+4688,1,Don't buy for a plastic wagon,The clamp on this broke the FIRST time I attempted to put it on my Discoverywagon. I assume the spring and clamp are not meant to open that wide.It is a strong clamp & should be suited to a metal or wooden sided wagon.
+4689,1,Ugly as hell,"What a shame this, otherwise quite appealing device, is ugly as hell. Amazon should have taken a page out of Apple's book rather than the Standard Soviet Design Manual ..."
+4690,1,TERRIBLE!,"This albums is horrifically horrible. I can't believe that her record label allowed her to put this album out. I loved her last album, but this one blows big time!"
+4691,1,"Good, but Not The Best","I didn't have trouble putting this bra on. Hook it beforehand and put it on over-head like a t-shirt. Very easy to reach back to unhook and take it off the same way. If you want to take it off without unhooking it, good luck. That was next to impossible. I tried it and felt like it would rip the fabric of the bra, I had to tug at it that hard. It provided decent support for my 40DD girls and it was fairly comfortable, but something was just off. It didn't feel like a good fit. If you want support AND comfort in a great looking bra, I'd go with this one:Saucony Motion Sensor Sports Running Bra"
+4692,2,Purr Pals is Purrty Good.,I decided to get a game my two year old may be interested in for car rides and waits at the doctor's office. This game has things that are simple such as moving the stylus across the screen to pet and groom you kitten and also to move toys around to play with it. The game also has a game similar to guitar hero where you tap notes when they pass by colored circles. This is done to classic children's songs as well as some classical music pieces. The entire family enjoys it!
+4693,2,Excellent Adventure!!!,"When I began reading it,I couldn't put it down.I was really part of the adventure.You have a map of medievil England and you are trying to find two white stones that Eddie and Sue have hidden in places like the Dragon's Cave,The Forest,The Castle,The Village and Morgred's Tower.At the end you have to fight the Lord High Executioner in the Terror Tower!This is truly my favorite Goosebumps Book!"
+4694,2,New York State Jaycees' 1997-98 Theme,"The State Jaycees' President of that year chose this book as a theme. I served as a local Chapter President during that year (Colonie New York) and bought the book just after his election to State President.It brought tears to my eyes. A must read for anyone who wants to ""go places""."
+4695,1,cluttered pages,Too much print without much being said. I found this book confusing & down right boring. to help your clutter problem loose this book in the nearest garbage can.
+4696,1,This CD [ smells],This CD [smells] and so does Linkin Park. They have no talent and are so overrated. Please buy something worth while...
+4697,1,Picky and noisy,"This drive would have been perfect if not for it being picky when it comes to media. When playing dvds, its so loud, it overpowers the noise in my cpu. Its distracting.The only good thing about this drive is that its cheap. But that is all you can get. Its a cheap writer which is cheaply constructed. I guess I got what I paid for. for others looking to buy this thing, spend just a little more on better known brands in dvd writers. Yes, Pioneer are famous but not when it comes to writers. There are others out there worth considering. But for the price no writer beats it except mayber for the ""ultra-cheap all the way"" NEC.Other writers worth mentioning are Plextor and TDK which are admittedly more expensive than the Pioneers."
+4698,2,Great addition to library,"Good book, good quality and a great addition to anyone's home library collection. It's just not the same if it is digital."
+4699,2,One of the best books I have ever read,"I have read this book several times, as well as listened to the audio version. I recommend the entire series to anyone interested in how politics truly work. And how families work. And oh yes, it is also about Ancient Rome, but the similarities to the political workings of today cannot be over looked. The author takes a few liberties with history, but not so much that it irritates historians, and she freely admits how she manipulates and why. Read this series!"
+4700,2,"My favorite cyberpunk book, and one of my three favorite SF.","Well written, fast paced. Superb tech. descriptions"
+4701,2,Well made,These are well made and work good. It is hard to get them set in the mole run just right. That is a must. Otherwise the mole will just go around it.
+4702,2,"Dark, But a very good Piece of gothic music","I first heard ""Big Electric Cat"" on a gothic music collection. The song ""Paris Sky"" on the collection was up-beat, but a very good gothic song. The Album ""Eyelash"" is not writen in the same style as ""Paris Sky"". This Album is showing a more a darker side of the band, but yet keeps a good, quality gothic sound. Songs such as ""My Last Breath"" and ""Secret Desire"" are more of the darker, and slower songs on the Album. These two songs set the mood for a very dark sounding Album. Other songs such as ""Splinters"" and ""Crash"" return to the type of music that ""Big Electric Cat"" is known for. If you're a fan of gothic music, and like a darker, slower sounding album, then this is for you. Overall, a very good piece of work by the band"
+4703,2,Love the Noble.,"I got this record without expectation, and man was I blown away. Not really like anything like Jason Noble (Shipping News, Rodan) had done before, except small hints of the Rachel's. It was strange at first, but after listening to it again the songs grew more intricate and the depth of the album left me breathless. The album is beats, loops, beeps, voice, and other sounds collaged together to make earthy tunes. If you like more human electronic music that bleeds, I highly suggest this record."
+4704,1,Hot and hard to clean,"There is no way to control the temperature and everything I've ever put in it burns. The inside doesn't come out for cleaning, and you can't put it in water so cleaning is a big pain. I put hot soapy water in it and plug it in for a bit, then dump it and wipe it out. I like some of the creative/clever ideas people have come up with here - like using it as a heating element with another dish inside it. But more than likely I'll wind up putting it in a donation box and find a different one that works properly."
+4705,2,Good value but requres small ornamental bulbs,"This fan looks good and was easy to install. However, I was disappointed to learn that the light kit does not use standard size bulbs. They are the small size that require you to use the ""ornamental"" bulbs, which are more expensive and limit your choices."
+4706,2,"Looks too large, but works well","I was worried when I first got this, because it looked quite a bit larger than the filter it was replacing. It's not, though, it fits just right. And now that I have a clean filter my vacuum actually... vacuums things. Imagine that. Having a long haired cat that sheds like its his job, I'll have to keep this filter in mind. Cheap, useful, and it'll help extend the life of my poor, overworked vacuum."
+4707,2,"If you love anime like i do, you will enjoy Angel Wars.","I have read some of the other reviews below and was quite suprised to find out that this is a Christian show. I bought it because i am a rabid anime fan always looking for something new. I think it will appeal to anyone who loves great animation and good stories no matter what their background. That being said, i do recognize the strong underlying positive messages as well as the theological references and i must say it was very well done. I know that neither i nor my kids like to be beaten over the head with a preachy moral lesson, but like any parent i want the entertainment for my family to be positive. This show hit the mark for me. Just checked out Episode 2 and it is even better!!"
+4708,1,Should be Recalled,I bought this book for my high school AP Physics child; it is almost evil to have a student suffer through wrong answers. I bought the book at Barnes and Noble and have returned it to them. I made a grat case for B&N; to return all copies to the publisher as a protest.When my child complained I checked with Amazon for confirmation; one great thing about Amazon is the reviews!!
+4709,2,NIce Find,"I was looking for the cd's that look like old 45 records and couldn't find them in local stores. After doing a search, I checked out the site of the producing company of this brand and Amazon. I found what I was looking for (I also purchased a label kit made for these cd's) at Amazon at a comparable price. I haven't burned the cd's yet, but am sure they will work well.Thanks, Amazon, for offering the product I needed."
+4710,1,Foot killer,"These are the worst New Balance Shoes I have ever worn. I have been wearing NB for approx 5 yrs and these make my feet hurt so bad at the end of the day that I can't hardly walk in the evening. I should have sent them back but 30 days already passed by. I tried them and then waited a couple of days and tried again and every time my feet hurt so bad. I don't know what is wrong with this model but the sole is like concrete and not the same kind of flexibility like the others also the heel doesn't have the same cushioning either. The other that I have worn was the 574 and the 574. It seems like the higher the number the worse the shoe gets and the price goes up as well. Now I have to find another brand of shoe to wear for work, I need an all black shoe."
+4711,1,Blah musical quality...,"I bought this CD at a Christian store today ~ without knowing anything about what it would sound like. I read the reviews here when I got home. Thankfully, (and shockingly,) the packaging can be opened and resealed with no damage to it at all. I took the CD out and listened to a few of the short little songs, and that was all it took for me to carefully repackage it. The sound was flat and BLAH... I knew I could not stand to listen to this with my grandkids, and couldn't imagine that the style of it would draw our precious little ones' hearts in. I'll be returning this to the store from which it came, and will continue my search for Christian kids' CDs for Grandma's house."
+4712,2,Best Live CD EVER,"Alright, the sound is a bit under produced, but that's a GOOD thing considering it's a LIVE CD. It's pure Rush, and sounds EXACTLY (Except for the MUCH louder Brazilian audience) like my show in Houston last year. This is Rush at their best. I recommend this CD ALONG with the DVD to EVERYONE. Not just for Rabid fans like myself. Worth a HELL of a lot more than you'd be paying. :-)"
+4713,1,Only 2.5 yrs old and doesn't work!!!,"We bought this GPS unit back in 2004 for cross country. It was great then. Then we did a software upgrade last year (2006) ,and this year the unit is basically non-functional now. The unit freezes upon processing data/destination route. This is really disappointing for a company that sells the unit (originally new for over $1K). We expected to get more life out of this unit. Additionally, we inquired about the unit repair--we would have to fork over another $200 to get the unit fixed after last year's upgrade, which cost us about $200 then--to find out the warranty for the upgrade is only for 3 months. What kind of warranty is that? What company would have so low confidence in their product to only offer a 3 month warranty? $200 is no small amount. Recommend buying a GARMIN. Magellan people have a lot of problems to fix!"
+4714,2,riveting read,i am a fan of alternate histories. the hinges on which history revolves can be incredibly fine. conroys' novel is both addictive and very credible. this was one of the toughest books to put down that i have read in several years. his characters (both real and fictional) are very well defined and lifelike. i've just ordered his other book and look forward to reading it.
+4715,1,horrible,"after communicating through email 6 different times, they still can't get my mail address right,I say ""apt 4609"" and they don't even know what ""apt"" stands for in an address! afterwords, I said thats my apartment number....4609, so she said ""ok"" I'll mail it to 4906! <~~ wrong number!!! all in all, I will not use them again.it was a Christmas present, and I still haven't got it!

+4716,2,Opal Bears and Lapis Skies,"I received this book as a gift from someone who knows I've had a preference for traditional, old-style Native American jewelry and crafts. It was good to learn, in depth and through this example of one artist, that contemporary Indian arts can be rooted in the same ancestral basis of geography and cosmology that produced earlier art and jewelry. Well-written . . . a good, and beautiful, addition to learning about Native American lives and art.Evelyn WinkelSeal Beach, CA"
+4717,1,Terrible political mush,"This book is pure political mush. Yes, Clinton never killed Osama bin Laden, but the one time he sent missiles into Afghanistan, what did the right wing Republicans do? Did they cheer him on? Did they tell him to go full force and send troops? Noooo. They said he was trying to cover up for the Lewinsky scandal. Clinton's priorities were in the right place, and the Republicans were completely wrong. Maybe if Bill Clinton didn't have to deal with the hypocritical Republicans and their attempts to kick him out of office for a private affair, then he could have taken care of business without criticism. Shame on the Republicans."
+4718,2,Well worth reading! Adoption and child welfare issues.,"This book is excellent for anyone who is interested in child welfare and adoption issues. I would recommend it to anyone thinking of adopting thru the child welfare system. She includes stories from a range of families and presents issues that have impacted their lives and the adoption process. Stories from single parents, couples, lesbian/gays, disabled families are well-balanced. She touches on issues involved in adoption through the ""child welfare system"". Altho she is from Canada she includes issues from the US. Great insight."
+4719,1,Disjointed and easy to put down,"When I picked up this book, I was SO excited, as the back cover compared it the hard-to-put-down ""Into Thin Air"" and the subject seemed to be an exciting one - unfortunately it never takes off, was an utter chore to finish and does not flow well... Sorry"
+4720,2,Controversial yet Nice,"Madeleine L'Engle brings us yet another thought provoking book. She reunites us with characters from her beloved time trilogy. Meg and Calvin's oldest daughter, Polly, is on an educational trip to Greece and Cyprus. Once she is there, she starts to relive her recent troubling past. One year before she arrives in Greece, Polly meets Maxa, an intelligent and wise elderly woman. Polly idolizes Maxa, because Maxa helps Polly to overcome her troubles. One day, a drunken Maxa makes the mistake of hurting Polly, and she discovers the startling truth that Maxa is only human. Will Polly learn to forgive Maxa? The novel has many controversial issues in it, and should not be in the young adult section. But the book still shows the meaning of trust, love and honesty."

+4723,2,This gal knows how to play the blues!,"I first heard Ms. Tedeschi when she opened for B.B. King in his year 2000 tour. What a night! I happen to be a big fan of the blues, and when I heard those performers, I was more than impressed! But Ms. Tedeschi stood out from the rest, because she expresses such a great amount of talent. You can tell that she loves her work! She can really play the blues, and her voice is just the icing on the cake!It's hard to say which song on this album is my favorite. It's like trying to decide which one of your children you love more. But I will say that her interpretation of ""Hound Dog"" is not one to be missed. I would also have to say that the instrumental work on ""You're On My Hair"" is great! Not to mention, she can play a mean slide guitar! (When you hear ""Locomotive"" you'll know what I mean). I recommend this album to anyone who has a deep respect for the blues, you won't be disappointed!"

+4725,1,Bad movie do not rent,"I watched this movie with my wife, and about halfway through we both looked at each other and she said ""I really hope this gets funny soon"". The best part of the entire movie was Melissa McCarthy. If they have her excerpts on youtube, I would recommend watching them on there and saving your time and money. The jokes went a heck of a lot longer than they needed to. And the worst part is that they were not even funny. Anyways, rent or buy at your own peril."
+4726,2,"A ""must have"" for all serious judoka!","This is ""the"" classic judo book; afterall, it's written by Kano himself. The evolution of the martial art to sport judo gives the reader the true meaning of what judo is all about. There is enough here, to keep the expert learning and to keep the novice from getting bored. An absolute ""must."""
+4727,2,Some of his better polkas,"The songs are some of the old favorites the way only Marion Lush could play them. The sound quality on a few songs was not the best, but overall it was worth the price. Wish I could find more of his recordings."
+4728,2,A fun children's book!,"My kids love this book, and I love to read it to them. They really enjoy the active imagination that Skippyjon has; I really enjoy that it exposes them to Spanish. Our oldest has actually started branching out into other Spanish-language titles. Our 2 year old just loves the drawings. A fun book for the whole family!I agree with the previous reviewer that a knowledge of Spanish is helpful. The only minus I would give the book is that it would be nice to have a pronounciation guide at the back for the Spanish words."
+4729,1,No wireless web or text messaging,I just bought this phone to replace a broken one and much to my dismay it doesn't have wireless web or text messaging capability!
+4730,1,dissapointing,"I'm sorry to say the book did not live up to its AD. It is clearly for people that have already built boats in the past. It constantly used terms not defined. The part on ""Lofting made simple"" left me (a decent wood worker) scratching my head. If you know all about building small boats buy this book. Then again if you already know then you don't need it."
+4731,2,Suburban Wonder,"I live 18 miles west of Philadelphia, PA and I receive 24 digital channels, including the major networks and PBS, in wonderful clarity on my new ATSC equiped LCD TV. I get basic analog (not digital) cable to save money. But this wastes the capacity of the TV. Because of this little antenna, I will drop cable and let the TV buy itself with the savings in just 10 months. Sweet!"
+4732,1,Some Nations Would Love For Us To Turn On The USA Gov.,"Perfect examlpe of how easily facts can be manipulated, to appear as the truth. How truths can be altered, yet appear as if they have not. And finally, how hard many will work, how far they will go, in attempts to turn the American People against our Government. I think the author should take up residence in Afganistan, I understand land there, is very cheap; especially now."
+4733,1,"Excellent music, horrible mastering","The cd contains the a remastered edition of the original album. I don't know what the engineers had in mind, but the remastered edition makes my ears bleed. The sound volume has been boosted to a way too high volume and results in completely distorted music. Some of the songs are totally unlistenable. Sure, the loudness of the original album is much less than most current releases, but this is no excuse to change that.To conclude: the cd is no remastered edition, but a mismastered edition of this great album."
+4734,1,Good thing Wal-Mart lets you return stuff.....,"I'm so glad I bought this guide at Wal-Mart as opposed to an actual videogame store. I bought it for the Fatalities, the Konquest mode, and the Krypt. This strategy guide had NO INFORMATION!!!! It actually said to look up info online! I even went to the website listed and it still had no info. Besides, I have gamefaqs.com if I want to get guides online. DO NOT BUY THIS BOOK!!!"
+4735,2,Sacroiliac Relief.,"Many years of suffering with periodic back pain and a recent 3 month attack causing me to limp and then escalating into major bursitis, and I finally find out it was my sacroiliac out of wack. All these years I thought it was just back pain and usually when wearing a back brace it would take care of it. Got relief from an injection for the sacroiliac and then another injection for the bursitis; but it only lasted 3 weeks. Finally decided to educate myself on sacroiliac problems and found out about this belt. Oh my goodness! What a relief!!!!! As soon as I have the slightest twinge of a problem, I put this on. It is so much more comfortable than wearing a back brace. Hugs and kisses for whoever invented this belt.NEW Serola Sacroiliac Belt"

+4737,1,Cheap Stuff,"The handles are nice, the best thing about these very cheap screwdrivers. The 'oxide tip' is a some kind of painted on coating that scratches off very easily. Don't be fooled by the appearance of a real professional screwdriver. These aint it."
+4738,1,Pass on this offer,These look nice but did not fit well nor did they make it through one wash - keep looking...
+4739,1,A very annoying radio,"I bought this for my wife when it first came out. The sound and reception are fine, but it's got a faulty am/fm switch. She listens almost exclusively to AM, but it'll switch to FM on it's own. When we hit it really hard on the top, it'll usually go back to AM. Of course, this didn't begin until the warranty had lapsed. Needless to say, I recommend you look for a different brand."
+4740,2,Comes in Handy,"When I went from a Sansa to a Zune, I needed a new FM transmitter because my old one was also a charger and only works with the Sansa-- but then I also needed a way to charge my Zune (since the charger/fm transmitter made by Zune got horrible reviews).So I bought an awesomeCoby CA-745 Wireless FM Car Transmitter with Digital Display and DC Car Cigarette Lighter Adapter, and this usb port. It works great. We used it a lot on a drive from GA to NY and back. Never failed, never overheated and had no issues at all. Really not much to say in the review but that it works exactly as it should :D"
+4741,2,"A Great Book, But Not Worth The Money","Andy Riley has definitely won his bragging rights, because the only time that I thought that commiting suicide was funny was when I sat down In my local bookstore and read The Book of Bunny Suicides! This is a laught-out-loud book that even has a sequel,called Return of The Bunny Suicides, but I would not spend eight bucks on a fifty (or so) page picture book."
+4742,1,"Translation not true to the original, used the least popular","The translators used the least popular copy for their translation(There are several different versions of this book, this being the least popular because of the poor quality of the last 50 chapters). Not only is the version a poor one, but the translations are poor as well. Compared with Sydney Shapiro's translation(The Outlaws of the Marsh), you will find that this is more like the work of a student. To rate the three different translations, I give Sydney's 100, 50 for Pearl Bucke's and 15 for this one."
+4743,2,A Must Have,"For those familiar with the Burzum name, Hvis Lyset Tar Oss is largely and widely accepted as his crowning achievement. Utilizing a stunning mixture of layered guitar melodies, gloomy synths, and thunderous percussion, Varg works his way through three hypnotic metal songs before the ambitious ambient outro - Tomhet. Rather than sit here and rattle on about the magic contained within this record, I would rather just claim that it is a must have for any black metal fan, and ranks among the highest calibur or metal releases period."
+4744,1,Gave no recommendations,"The book didn't give any recommendations nor provided a good map. I usually travel well on my own with other guidebooks, but was not ""guided"" at all in New York with this book. The pictures may be fancy, but weighs down the book with its photo-quality pages. The book is not comprehensive and is geared towards INTERNATIONAL travelers. For example in the ""what to eat"" section, the book recommended scrambled eggs & french toast for breakfast. No American would need to be told that scrambled eggs & french toast are breakfast foods."
+4745,1,genuinely awful - this is one knockoff too many,"Well, this was the last film in the Harryhausen set we got, and it is the only one I found so bad that I could barely watch it. Even though Jane Seymour is in this, the acting is so bad, so stilted, so wooden, that I cannot comprehend how it could possibly be, well, so awful. The direction is also bad, with all sorts of meaingless incidents, like someone falling while walking, etc. Finally, the script is also boring and while all of these are improbably, I could not suspend my disbelief and enjoy any if it. Even my kids got bored, and it was for them that I got it. The only redeeming feature are Harryhausen's effects, which are good, but they are grafted onto such a crumby movie.Not recommended. You can't even enjoy this as camp."
+4746,1,Boring Band,"A few months ago I went to a Tantric concert in Louisville, KY because my friend likes them. A band called Silvertide was opening for them, and let me just say Tantric was pahetic compared to them. The crowd sucked, that's why I hate modern alternative rock bands like this...the fan base is as boring as the music. All the people did was stand and watch. At the beginning of one song the Tantric's singer said ""This is for all you headbangers and moshers out there"" as if he expected someone to actually make a big movement like that, and I hope he didn't, 'cause if he did, he was disappointed. Simply put: the opening band blow the headliners away. How sad is that?"
+4747,1,LOVELY FILM - DREADFUL DVD TRANSFER,"Wonderful movie, completely misrepresented by Columbia as being digitally mastered and remastered in high definition.The print is dreadful - wandering back and forth, almost incessantly, from bad to worse.Avoid this.Hold the studios accountable.And wait for someone to release a decent print."
+4748,2,A complete tennis guide,"This book is perfect for the beginner and expert alike. It starts off by reviewing the basic strokes, and then goes into details like startegy, competion, and even pschology. Overall an excellent tennis primer."
+4749,2,A delightful film reminiscent of the musicals of the '40s.,"Set in 1939 London, the film follows Guinevere Pettigrew (Frances McDormand), a recently unemployed governess as she responds to an ad for work as a ""social secretary"" and into the glamorous show business world of American actress and singer Delysia Lafosse (Amy Adams). In the film, the often silly actress and the frumpy governess form an (often comic) bond. In the end, they discover that they need each other much more than either one could have expected.The art direction and nice musical score make this a delightful film reminiscent of the musicals of the '40s. The pivotal moment of Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day occurs when Delysia sings ""If I Didn't Care"" in a 1939 London nightclub. The seemingly glamorous, emotionally calculating American movie star is overcome in this moment of truth and still does a swell job with the tune made famous by the Ink Spots."
+4750,2,GREAT HORROR/COMEDY!!! WAXWORK RULES!!!!!!,"This movie is great!!! My favorite part is the werewolf segment. I liked the ""It's my party"" song at the end. Great gore and humor! A must-see horror film!!!"
+4751,2,Graceful storytelling,"The prose is straightforward, elegant, precise, and powerful in an understated way. The novel has little in the way of melodramatic twists and major revelations, so readers looking for them would do better looking elsewhere. Instead, ""Waiting"" is about helpless lives swept along by political tides, about promises kept but not fulfilled. It's a distinctive vision that rewards a careful reading."
+4752,1,Two solo cursed Careers&a so-so song,"Ralphael Saadiq is a average solo Artist at best. dude needs to get back with Tony,Toni,Tone like 5 minutes ago. He is a Talented Musician,but limited as a Solo Artist.songs like this&alot of his solo work is just kinda there. His vocals are kinda flat like Pancakes. Q-Tip: ain't never gonna hit his mark as a Solo Artist. Tribe still was His mark.He might do alright as a Hook Cat,but I can't see him making it as a solo Artist.both of these Cats solo Careers seem cursed to Me.they were both better suited in a Group Situation."
+4753,1,No luck.,"I have owned this trap for 18 months. I have caught zero mice with it. I have caught four mice with glue traps, as well as two lizards. I paid about $20 for this and some stupid electronic repellents. They were garbage. All I needed were glue traps from the 99 cent store."
+4754,1,Unequal shuffling,This product does shuffle but the left side finishes about 15 cards before the right side and it will sometimes turn a card over and nearly always has a card or two standing up on the side walls.
+4755,2,Thought provoking,I read this on my Kindle Fire. My 14 year old grandson had ordered it as a part of school reading requirements. I enjoyed the description of what living in the Warsaw ghetto might have been like for a child. Unbelievable example of man's hatred for others. Was pleased with the ending.
+4756,1,weather station,The produce seems to work well but I don't like the reset procedure after changing the batteries. My biggest complaint is that the display is very hard to read in certain light conditions. A red or green readout would be much easier to see in low light. And the glass should be non-glare.
+4757,1,Disappointed,"The phone is difficult to use, with such a small keypad and the display, while crisp, is difficult to see unless you have a magnifying glass. Pictures taken with the phone are grainy, and quality is really bad. As for sending the pictures via AT&T, expect nickel-and-dime charges for the data transfer. I am returning my phone to AT&T and cancelling my service (still within 30 day guarantee)."
+4758,1,I'm returning it.,The video quality is nowhere near what I expected and I am disapointed enough to return it.Its got a good swivel and thats about it; the content that comes with it is so-so and the headset is pretty minimal.

+4761,2,Excellent.,Beautiful. Cracks the pepper with hardly a turn. I expect this to be the last pepper mill I'll need to buy.
+4762,2,Amazed at how much my son loves these!!,"My son loves this simple toy so much! He carries the jar around and loves dumping them out and counting and stacking the cookies. They are fun, educational and a great value!"
+4763,2,Very 80's,"Though many of the tracks on this CD are reminiscent of the eighties, it is still a wonderful addition to any collection. Most of the tracks are remarkable, and a little less than half of them don't even contain any cheezy synthesizer. Caravan is absolutely incredible! It's possibly my new favorite vocal jazz song. I also loved Baroque Samba, Round Midnight, and the haunting, tight harmonies of Come Home. It's fascinating to watch the New York Voices progress from this eighties album to some of their newer songs. I love it."
+4764,2,F*** Great!,"Besides everything Macca did with the Beatles, this is his masterpiece. Undoubtedly. The funny thing is that, as a Beatles fan, I only listened to Band on the Run a little before Paul came to Brazil a couple of months ago. Nowadays, I can't listen to ""1985"", ""Mrs. Vandebilt"" and ""Bluebird"" (less known to Beatles fans) without crying. P.S.: I went to the concert..."
+4765,1,Does not grab,This product does not grab hairs very well and make it very difficult to pull ingrown hairs. The point is sharp.
+4766,2,Surprising,"I'm fan of judging a book by its cover in the literal sense. Sometimes I'm just a regular Generation-X quick-pick consumer. I picked this book up because of the cover and a speedy skim of the jacket's summary. I was intrigued and decided to splurge.After reading the first chapter, I wasn't sure that I was going to read on. I was rather disgusted by the initial scenario, but I thought back to books like Lovely Bones and She's Come Undone and figured I'd stick it out. I'm glad I did because I became thoroughly wrapped up in the remainder of the novel. I hungered to see how it would play out (though I must admit, it was a bit predictable). The suspense was unbearable and I found I was reading on my lunch break (something I haven't done in quite a while). Overall, I give this four stars for the suspense, and the ability of the author to rebound and pull me in after a traumatic start. This is a nice quick read if you can get through that initial gruesome chapter."
+4767,1,Entertaining but Too Whiny,"I wasn't a fan of the Nanny t.v. show but when I saw the book I started reading it at the bookstore and ended up buying it. I sympathize with her ""year from hell"" (i.e., cancer, show cancellation, divorce, death of pet, etc.) but she doesn't seem to get how privileged she was having the means to excellent and exclusive healthcare. She also had the luxury to recuperate at leisure, be pampered by friends and family which most working women don't. Also, as savvy as Ms. Drescher is, I wondered why she didn't seek alternative medical advice too?It's funny in spots but the ""poor me"" drivel gets to you by the end of the book. Maybe if I'd known she had donated the proceeds of the book to a woman's cancer charity or something, I wouldn't be so hard on her. Instead, the cynic in me can see her on the talk shows promoting the book and herself with gusto."
+4768,1,This is Horrible!,"I've only seen one video and it was horrible. This is not evenwrestling.They say there better than ECW (Extreme Championship Wrestling)yeah right,I'll belive that when I see it. Don't wasteyour money on Rob Black's company. If you want to buy somethingextreme get EC f'n W."
+4769,1,My list of negatives about my Zarafina,"I received this as a Christmas gift from my husband as a replacement for my Mrs Tea that finally passed away after probably 15 years of service. I agree that the Zarafina is pretty and looks nice on my counter and I will agree that it makes a good cup of tea (no better than my Mrs Tea!) but that's where my fondness ends. First and foremost it does not brew enough tea, and it takes forever! I get two cups of tea and then I'm brewing another pot, and another and another. I am a tea drinker. Give me some tea! I also do not like that there isn't a warming element. The brewed tea cools off fast and I'm forced to put the cup in the microwave to warm it up. Lastly, I use loose tea and each and every cup has major tea debri in it. Annoying. Oh, and another thing, the litlle tiny pot cannot pour without spilling. I don't care how careful you are. I'm in the process of searching for a new tea maker. I'll sell my Zarafina on eBay."
+4770,1,Lackluster twin to My Favorite Wife,"Sorry to say it, but I find this to be a lack-luster twin to My Favorite Wife. The character interaction is shallow, and missing the magic that was so funny between Grant and Dunn. I love most of Grant's films, but this one goes on the back shelf for when I need something to put me to sleep."
+4771,1,Look elsewhere,"If you want to know what topics to consider for an E2k deployment, they're probably all mentioned here. If you want to know any details about those topics, there wasn't room. I had high hopes after listening to Mr. Morimoto's Microsoft webcast, but no more information is to be found here than the brief mentions he made. An example is found on p. 59, where five considerations for sizing and installation are listed. ""These areas are detailed in the 'Best Practice Recommendations' section,"" it says; the details amount to only nine lines, simply re-listing the topics. Disappointing."
+4772,1,WTF?!?!,I don't know why in the world this weirdo would make this noisey machine-fart of an album for country great Johnny Cash.where as Mr Cash is mainly acoustic guitars this Apex Twin guy is a lot of weird noise. I don't like this album and I don't think Johnny Cash does either considering he's hasn't talked about it in any of his recent interviews.
+4773,2,Methods Framework,"This book works very well as a support framework for practicioner: it comprises concepts of operations management avoiding to go into deep abstraction.The book is filled with practical examples that show the real life of given concepts. It can clearly help someone to structure work with real problems in operations management.People in charge for operations management are generally already fitted with tools and concepts that support decision-making. Complete coverage of the field is offered here, which gives broader view and help in any strategic decision. Some approaches are modernized in recent years, but everything given here is still valid as a basic reference."
+4774,1,worst after life book ever,"I am a person who has a master degree and very much love after life books. The best after life book authors are raymod moody and Melvin Morose. When I started reading this book that was super long, I realized the words were so dramatic I could not after awhile understand what the author was trying to tell me. This experience was very long and drawn out. I am not saying the author didn't have this experience, I don't know but I do know it could have been written better."
+4775,2,Little House Nine book set,This is a nice set and a lot expensive than what I found in stores or other websites. My daughter just loves it.
+4776,1,Horrible Sequel,Before Dimension got smart with their horror movies they tried to reive the Halloween franchise. Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers was an already dead horror franchise. The cast here is horrible and the deciison to kill of the charcter of Jamie was stupid. The film does have some decent kills but it lacks some good old fashioned T&A and the plot was all over the place. Skip this one.

+4779,1,Too Far out there,I have never been one to dislike the non Scarpetta books but this one was way too far out there. More stupid than funny. The characters seemed to be so slow to catch on to obvious plot (I use that term loosly in connection with this book) twists that I had to fource myself to keep reading it. The talking fish and crabs were just more than I could stand.
+4780,1,Many guitars missing,"Many less known brands and many models of well known brands (Aria, Ibanez, etc.) are not even mentioned. Some prices are wildly inaccurate (current models that can be checked). I take all they say with a grain of salt. It may or may not be true."
+4781,2,A fascinating read,"I initially heard about this book via the New York Radio Message Board & its webmaster Allan Sniffen-Based on what he had to say,I decided to go out & buy a copy for myself-I'm glad I did-This is a terrific book-Richard Neer chronicles his career from the late 1960's when he worked for a Long Island,NY station called WLIR to the heritage rock station WNEW-FM in NYC,where he stayed from 1971-1999-Neer recounts the events that led to WNEW's demise as a rock station in 1999-Apparently,he wasn't thrilled that it changed formats to talk-In the two & a half years since NEW-FM became a talk station,their ratings have been abysmal,to say the least-Anyway,Neer has done a thorough job here-This is a book,which should not only be read by those in the industry,but for people like myself,who love listening to the radio."
+4782,2,Great product,"I bought this card because I always shoot on raw and I was heading to a big trip in the south of Mexico. The CF Card worked great and I had an extra 4gb CF card, so I always had more than enough memory for my daily clicking. I strongly recommend this product."
+4783,1,Only because zero isn't an option!,"This book was awful. Totally repetitive, simplistic, and sexist. Don't waste your time or money. It's authors like this who give the self-help genre a bad name. Gray is a terrible writer, and the information he gives is common sense."
+4784,2,Innovative Ideas for Hands-On Creative People,"If you're a creative person who likes to get into hands on projects, this is a book for you. Each section begins with a photograph of an entire room, and the following pages used cropped images of each item with instructions on how to make them. Most of the projects do require some knowledge about construction & materials, however. Tools needed include a jigsaw, sewing machine, or a large space in which to do some of the projects. There are smaller projects though that do not require these things, and the book definitely promotes you to come up with your own creative ideas. One downside though, if you are interested in easy crafts - this isn't the book for you. Readers definitely need to understand the basics in order to find this book useful."
+4785,2,Worked perfect,Placed it in the car and did the job. Reverse lights started working and I finally passed the safety inspection for my car.
+4786,1,Really?,"Okay, I want to say it is a good workout, it really makes you sweat, however does she ever shut up? Her mouth is running like a ducks behind with bad diarrhea through the entire work out! It is very annoying and makes me want to turn it off! Plus it makes it hard to concentrate on your breathing and form. After the first two uses I have now learned to push the mute button when I begin and just follow along with a music cd in my stereo. Thank GOD for the mute button, otherwise I would have just thrown this in the trash! I will continue to use this Jillian Michaels DVD, however I will NEVER purchase another one of her workout videos, she is just way to annoying!"
+4787,1,Photo misrepresents item,"Photo needs to be changed so it looks like the item I got shipped to me. It looks like a boxer brief in the advertising, but it is in fact a loose fitting boxer short. Disappointed when I opened it and had to ship it back and reorder. Please make this correct for your customers."
+4788,1,VERY CREEPY,These dolls are SO FREAKY!They have huge eyes!They only think about shopping and boys!Don't buy these scary toys!!
+4789,2,"Good book, could be better","If you do a search on ""Milet Bilingual Visual Dictionary"" many different versions come up. After purchasing the book, it seems like the publisher made one book, and then translated it into 10 or 15 languages. The reason why this is an issue is there are SO MANY pages with items (for example, a page with camera parts and camera accessories) that simply have no translation in Gujarati...so all that is written is the word ""lens"" or ""tripod"" in Gujarati characters.Also, my other issue is that the book presents only the formal words for items, so, for example, bed is written as bichhaani, but more commonly used words like pathhaari or palang are not mentioned. Overall, this will be a fun book to explore with my daughter once she learns how to read Gujarati because there are so many beautiful, detailed illustrations with items that kids growing up in the US might be interested in translating (like astronomy and insects, etc), but it could have been better!"
+4790,2,Fun and Entertaining,"A well-animated classic forgotten by most. The ending, as was typical of its era, is somewhat disappointing. But that's probably just because I'm a Christian. The story is simple and kid-friendly; and it encourages children to use their minds. This is a good gift or a good addition to any animation collection."
+4791,1,"BAD OPENING, TRIVIAL PURSUIT","Unbearable beginning. Who ever told this woman she could write? Nothing about the set-up works. The characters and the plot are trivial, and the floating point of view is ungrounded. There is no sense of a central intelligence behind the story. Yarrrrgh. I lasted only 11 pages. I'm being kind to give it two stars. If people in Hollywood are like this, I'm glad I'm not there. I remember seeing Kelly Lange on TV, too, and thought she was pretty good. I think it's hard to make the transition from journalism to fiction, which is much more demanding. For her, it didn't go well."
+4792,2,Excellent Quality and Price,"I priced this item locally at my automotive part stores and on line. This had the best price by far. Once I installed it, the issue went away. There was also a noticable difference in the performance and fuel economy."
+4793,1,Broken Low Setting,The LOW setting is actually HIGH. Burns food severely within 2 hours. Went to manufacturer for new one. Would have ruined Thanksgiving if I hadn't tested it ahead of time. Tested it twice on 2 favorite recipes. Same results.
+4794,1,"simplistic, redundant, and overstates the obvious","This could have been half a chapter in most decent books on management and money. Instead you get a ""book"" (and at this length I use that word loosely) that is a condescending fortune cookie mess. Let me sum it up for you: life is full of hardships and you need to deal with them and move on. There, I have saved you the cost of this book and didn't insult your intelligence while I was at it. Avoid this at all costs."
+4795,1,What a Disappointment,"I have been using this exact style of blow dryer made by a different company for years and I loved it. I have very fine, wavy hair that easily tangles and the wide-tooth comb blow dryer attachment works beautifully. My old dryer's motor had finally burned out and the store where I purchased it no longer carried it, so I turned my search efforts to Amazon. I found the one I wanted to replace, and I found this one which is a different color and a buck cheaper. The price difference was negligible, but I thought it would be nice to have a gold one after using a silver one for so long. I wish I didn't do this. The first time I used it the motor had this really high pitch whine to it, sounded like it was working way too hard to do it's job. By the second use, this sound had gotten so bad I was afraid it might actually catch on fire so I threw it away. Please, don't waste your money on this horrible product. I will be purchasing from the other company from now on."
+4796,2,Oh my gosh! See this...!,"I thought for a long time that Latter Days was my most favorite movie until I saw Maurice for the very first time, in 2007, a full twenty years after it had wrapped. I don't know if I can say enough nice things about this moving, uplifting, optimistic movie. This movie is really about risking everything we know for what we believe in with no guarantees for a happy ending. Whether or not you are gay, I think if you've ever been faced with difficult choices, or have ever been in love in an impossible situation, you will find something to appreciate in this one. It had me cheering."
+4797,2,Good Product,"Bought it for my granddaughter (age 7) for Christmas. She loved it. My daughter liked the larger wheels. It was already assembled, only had to adjust for height."
+4798,1,Nearly unlistenable,"I truly believe there are two types of film scores; those that can be listened by themselves, and those that need to accompany a film to be listened to. 'Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within' definately needs to be lumped into the latter category. Being a big fan of the music composed for the FF games, I was really anticipating this CD. Being familiar with only Goldenthal's work with the last Batman films, I was prepared to give the guy an open ear. I wish now I had closed it. This score is noisy and brash, with absolutely no melody whatsoever. There are lots of loud instruments blurting away, clanging cymbals and hollering wind instruments all alike. There is no one leading theme or melody to latch onto to set this score apart from the others. I believe the soundtrack to a film should be a part of that film's character, but this one is a faceless mess. The only thing to even closely redeem it was the second last vocal track. FF fans, don't be duped into buying this."
+4799,1,Very disappointed,"Wanted to get my husband a book to read as I was absorbing my own pregnancy books - he was excited to get it - but his enthusiasm immediately waned within the first few pages and the obvious Seinfeld rip-offs. The humor was not very ""humorous"" - it was pretty painful in fact. He gave up shortly after reading about the author's brilliant term that he invented called ""re-gifting"" - (anyone else ever heard of that?). Am trying to redeem myself with a more worthy book for him - but this just wasn't it."
+4800,1,It's okay I guess.,"WilE coyote is a hoot! Try to count how many times he explodes in the whole video!!! It has the classic ""SCRAMLED ACHES"" on it, one of the funniest and my all time favorite classic. It had ""HIP HIP HURRY"" on it and I was very dissappointed at what I saw. To problems with that cartoon. WilE coyote almost always appears off screen, but even worse, WilE takes a speed drug which is not appropriet and unlawful so who cares if he's just a carrtoon!!! Other than that ""HIP HIP HURRY"" is okay. All the rest is totaly fine, funny, and the best cartoon duo LooneyTunes ever made!!!!!!!!"
+4801,1,Brew Boo,"This unit makes a wonderfull cup of coffee when it is not broke. I have been through 2 of these units thinking they(B&D) has made improvements. Not so. The coffe makers had the identical problem with the pod holder tabs breaking after several dozen uses. Then the units leaks all over the place because it cannot hold a seal. The second unit did exactly the same even with me paying particular attention to that area. After buying a replacement pod holder only to see that fail also, the entire upper head of the unit became craked. I threw it in the trash after numerous contacts to B&D about their product. I bought a Senseo coffee system, a little more costly but much happier user. B&D needs to take a hard look at their design."
+4802,1,What a disappointment!!!,"I was so excited to finally get the bucks to buy one of these gadjets. I run a daycare so mopping daily is a necessity! I thought this was an answered prayer. I should've went with Mom's advice and purchased the Hoover!!!Having already owned a Bissell vaccuum, and being extremely happy with that particular purchase, I thought I was making a wise decision in choosing the Bissell FlipIt over the Hoover Floor Mate. What a let down! It does clean well, if you want to take the whole day cleaning the floor! I could mop the old fashioned way much faster. I was so sure I was doing something wrong that I called the 800# to speak with a rep. After I answered his many questions - I finally asked him one. Is it SUPPOSED to work this way?, I asked. ""There will be some resistance"" was the reply. That's all I needed to know, I said.This baby's going back!"
+4803,1,I am disgusted,I would have given zero stars if that was an option.i am thoroughly disturbed and will officially never read another of her books. DISGUSTED.
+4804,2,Happy Husband,My husband loves the chicken wings the fryer makes. I bought another one for my son becuase he missed Buffalo style wings from NY. I told him these were as good as the wings from NY.
+4805,2,helpful illustrations for the beginner like me,"Not ony this has about 100 different knots (20 practical ones), it has some knots that you can make as an ornament or good luck charms. It has useful illustrations too. Although I just bought this book a few hours ago on a sale rack in a nearby bookstore, my first impression of this book is pretty good.This hard cover book also has:tags that divides different knot sections into:The world's favorite knots20 practical knotstraditional knotsinnovative knotsuseful mutations"
+4806,2,great perfume,this perfume smells so good....this is the first perfume i have bought that my sons father really liked...n he NEVER likes my perfume selections....it has good staying power and smells great....
+4807,1,Pack of Lies,"If I could rate this book a zero, I would. It's even worse than the other ""tell all biography"", 'Hammer of The Gods'. These are Richard Coles egomaniacal, crack induced fantasies of what he wishes life with Led Zeppelin was. 90% of the book is pure fantasy. Want proof? The boys in the band released statements renouncing the book and Cole himself. The fact is this book is more an attempt by Richard Cole to boost his own ego than a factual account. If you like fairy-tales, get it. Otherwise, well, I guess we're still waiting for an accurate and well writen biography. Someone,anyone? Wanna help us out?"
+4808,1,BORING!!!,"I too had the unabridged recorded book. It was a major yawn and I kept thinking when it would ever end. I found myself fast-forwarding through the tapes waiting for Caleb to met-up with Reno, the brother of Willow. Well after fastwarding through many tapes still no meeting with Reno. Unfortunately, I cannot torture myself any longer. The pain must end; therefore, I will not finish this book.Do not waste your money by purchasing this book. Luckily, I got it from the public library."
+4809,1,"Soundtrack Horrible, TOO LOUD","The Movie ""looked"" okay, but I couldn't hear 3/4ths of what was said because ""somebody"" went nuts turning the 'soundtrack' volume up to 100!The lesbian scene should be cut, it doesnt make any sense in this movieAlso > General Barnes had no Colonels, Majors, Captains, or Lieutenants as his 'aids'? he had only a female E-8 Sargent that looked way too youngto be E-8? Directing & sound earned a 'Zero' from me..."
+4810,2,Sandra's first album!,"On 25th October 1979, this album was released in Japan... Now re-issued as CD, it features the original artwork on he cover and the back cover (booklet)... The most beautiful tracks are: ""Dancing In The Fire Of Love"", ""City Cats"", ""Hell Driver"", ""Don't Kiss A Crocodile"" and ""Plastic Heart""... Sandra was only 17 in the photos of this album, and she just joined the trio when they recorded it... A must for any Sandra fan!"
+4811,1,Not Giving Up Yet...but I Continue to Hope for Better,"I'll admit that I am perhaps a little too attached to Honky Tonk Union, but I have really struggled to embrace the direction that Roger Clyne and the Peacemakers are going. Clyne continues to have strong chops, and the musicianship remains top notch. The song-writing, at least to my ears, has been on a bit of a decline over the last couple of albums. No More Beautiful World has a moment or two that reminds me why I became a fan, but I can't justify listening to an album front to back for a moment or two. It's understandable that bands need to evolve, but until that evolution equals or surpasses their origins, I wish RCPM could do a little more channeling or their early work."
+4812,2,Cool-Can't wait for Version 2.0!,I loved how it went behind the scences of the music videos! I'm glad they showed clips of the b-side too
+4813,1,most misleading packaging EVER,"These bars are dense, chewy, and dry. I didn't find them as horrible as other reviewers, but it seems like a lot of them are negative because it USED to be a great product. What infuriates me is the size of the product, which is NOTHING LIKE the picture on the package, and barely half the size of the individual wrapper! I wouldn't even call it a bar, it's only slightly rectangular, more like a small thumbnail-shaped chunk. Definitely check out the video that one reviewer posted to show the actual size. I certainly won't buy these again, and it makes me want to boycott the company, even if they make other, better-tasting GF products."
+4814,2,Flexees One Fabulous Body II Lace Cami,Very comfortable to wear and doesn't ride up like many camisoles I've tried. Also is longer than most I've tried. Would definitely recommend.
+4815,2,Photographer Josh,I loved this book. It is close to the top of my favorite vampire books. Dracula and Salem's lot are the only two above it. I highly recommend it to anyone who loves vampires or Gothic lit.
+4816,1,Not Worth Two Hours,"Once again, a movie reinforces our belief that we shouldn't bother watching movies that critics like. Maybe we are different than them, or maybe they can't see the forest for the trees, I don't know. But if you count yourself as an average person who is simply looking for a movie that isn't boring, do yourself a favor and skip this one. Watch it, like we did, and you'll want your 2 hours back."
+4817,1,THOMAS THE TRAIN SET,"WE BOUGHT THIS TRAIN SET FOR OUR GRANDSON BECAUSE IT SEEMED SO STURDY BECAUSE THE TRACK IS MADE OF WOOD AND YOU CAN ALWAYS ADD EXTRA TRAINS AND TRACKS FOR THE FUTURE... THE ONLY DRAWBACK IS THAT THE TRAIN WILL ALWAYS GO OFF THE TRACKS WHEN IT STARTS TO MAKE A TURN. FOR THIS REASON, I WOULD NOT RATE THIS ITEM EXTREMELY HIGH."
+4818,2,He's the best,"This is the best Brazilian writer at the best of his form, and one is certain to waste his time trying to locate a handful of Brazilians who would dispute this statement. Yet, Machado (1839-1908) may well be a bore if you go about this Brazilian Literature item expecting sweaty Sonias Bragas, Jorge Amado's style, or something of the sort. The man is sharp, sophisticated, often dark, always very funny, and a hell of a narrator. The word is, well, genius. Dom Casmurro (stick to the content! stick to the content!), with its apparent simplicity, its infinite nuances, is quite possibly the best love-triangle story ever written. Worth giving a try if you like reading at all.PS. Dom Casmurro is also found in English under the literally translated title Lord Taciturn. I prefer this edition's choice."
+4819,1,Rocking but not rolling,Guitar Wolf makes me want to run away and cry in my mom's stomache where I came from. I am an ustable man.
+4820,1,Puts up quite a fight for a little guy,"I received one of these sanders for Christmas when my PC 333VS finally died. I had the 333VS for about 10 years and loved it. I had to replace the little band a couple times, but that was quick and easy. So when I needed a new one, I went with the PC 343K.I used it a couple times, but the main problem I had with it was that I always felt that I was fighting it. It wanted to go where it wanted to go, and I had little say in the matter. It didn't matter what grit paper I was using or what type of wood I was sanding, it was a struggle to move it where I wanted. It also vibrated enough that my hand was tingling after using it for about 5 minutes. Sanding is arduous enough without having to do battle with the sander.I've since donated it to a military base woodworking shop and bought a DeWalt D26453K, and love it. It's a little dustier, but it runs smooth and does a great job."
+4821,1,"Not a bad soundtrack, but NEVER LEGITIMATELY ISSUED ON CD. This is a bootleg!","This soundtrack has NEVER been legitimately issued on CD. The seller is offering you a bootleg CD, probably created in his basement, for $80. Don't be the proverbial fool who spends his money on this rip-off.Again: No matter what anyone tells you, this soundtrack has NEVER been issued on CD ANYWHERE in the world. Never. Anywhere. This is a bootleg."
+4822,1,Freeman is the Hilary Duff of Serious Jazz Literature,"Word is, Mr. Freeman is working on a new book on Miles Davis for Backbeat. Let's hope it makes more sense than this one did. New York is Now! Not Freeman's New York, and not Anytime Soon. Free jazz is just a house on fire. The fact that he thinks to connect everything to death metal is just ridiculous. Approach this book like you would that cap worn by Michael Moore. Peeking inside could prove to be psychologically damaging."
+4823,2,AMAZING!!,"First MAC I have owned -20"" Intel IMAC with 2 gig RAM. Needed Windows to run all my PC programs. This does EVERYTHING for me and set up was a snap. Automatic and seemless integration with the MAC without a reboot. My MAC is now the fastest PC I have ever owned. Incredible Program!!!!!Go with an Intel based MAC, then get this program. Microsoft and PC's should be ashamed of themselves. I will never buy another PC."
+4824,2,Execellent cd,"This cd is excellent. Eventhough it isn't very commercial which means that it's not going to appeal to the majority of music buyers out there. Anyway if you're looking for some music that is well produced, and if you're a Queen Latifah fan, buy it anyway because she is so talented, and she is one of the few rapper artist that can sing. She has a real nice smooth voice. The track with her and Al green I reccommend., and of course the classic ""Hello Stranger"" originally recorded by Barbara Lewis in the 60's. This was and still is a beautiful song. Dana Owens aka Queen Latifah does a nice cover of this song, if you don't have this cd go out and buy it today."
+4825,2,Three-way Street a Good Love Story for the Soul,"I never heard of Richard Timer before. I ran into the book by accident when I ran a search. I always give a new author a shot. I've been so bored with all the romance novels these days as our society is so all wrapped up with sentuality and fantasy. I was not disappointed that I bought the Three-way Street.It's a different kind of love story. It's so clean and so refined for the uplifting spirit of romance literature. It's a cross cultures impact on the story to open up our eyes to another world. I learned a lot of how women in another country would think or how their up bringings can determine the way of life in thoughts, love and marriage. The book shows good descriptive feeling, emotion and soul in the three-way street that we might one day face it ourselves."
+4826,2,Ahead of it's time!,"I have always thought that this film was ahead of it's time with talk of abortion and child murder. Given the times we live in now with the Susan Smiths of the world, it gives one pause to watch this film as an omen. Child care, latch key children, the Muenchhausen by proxy theory and countless other issues this film raises were perhaps TOO controversial for it's day. Today, just another headline.I hate to see this film lumped in with quick paced horror/slasher films. It simply doesn't warrant that dismissal.Not to mention this is arguably Ms. Davis' most restrained film performance of it's day.Watch, learn and respect a little gem in cinema that I think has been unfairly dismissed as a ""guilty pleasure"""
+4827,2,Madcap live concert by all-star gypsy band,"Perhaps you're like me -- when it comes to gypsy music, you can pretty much take it or leave it. However, this is an interesting live album, because of the band's fluidity and playfulness, as well as its lightning-quick timing and tight arrangements. A carnival atmosphere prevails, as they zip through a remarkable mix of styles -- Arabic, Mediterranean, Slavic and Jewish music collide in a high-speed multi-culti chase. After a while this wore me down the way all gypsy records seem to, but for a while I was pretty entertained. Worth checking out."
+4828,1,This is a fraud,"The image you see is not what you get. ""FRAUD"" I ordered what I saw in the image and what I received is the new junk that YSL is now calling Opium. This company ""Sal's"" knows the difference because they also offer the ""new"" Opium from YSL shown in the bottle that I was sent. There is a vast difference in the scent. I have used the original Opium since 1978 and know the difference. I shopped on line because you can no longer buy the original in the stores.I am sure that Amazon will not allow its service to be used in this manner.Opium By Yves Saint Laurent For Women. Eau De Toilette Spray 1.6 OuncesThis is what I thought I would receive not what they sent so go online and look at the two Opiums but know that if you order from ""Sal's"" you will be sent the ""new"" one not this. ""Fraud"""
+4829,1,Do not buy this if you are not 100% sure its what you need,This order will ship from a 3rd party called Tech Depo. I ordered 2of them for the wrong slot type and they DO NOT ACCEPT RETURNS!!!SO now I am out over 500 dollars.Be careful
+4830,1,SL-SX290,"I purchased this CD player for my daughter. Although the features are fine, I question the durability. She has had it for about a year and it constantly skips and/or does not recognize certain CDs. I plan to return it. I would recommend spending a little more for a quality unit."
+4831,1,"Horrendous product, even worse service","Don't even bother with this item. Not only is the product even cheaper than you can imagine (uneven stitching, thin material, cheap, poorly shaped grommets), but the seller is atrocious. Hands down the rudest vendor i've ever come across on Amazon. The item arrived stained, and the seller went as far as accusing me of threats, simply to avoid taking responsibility. It isn't worth the money in the least, get this somewhere else, where the seller actually has some semblance of business acumen."
+4832,1,Out Dated,"This story is in the 5th Grade reading book. While it isn't a bad story, most students found the story to be uninteresting. Instead of learning about the issues of learning to trust a new dog and family issues with mom gone, we had a discussion about when the story happened. There are many things in the pictures that date the story."
+4833,2,A powerful album celebrating the beauty of music,"Storm is Vanessa-Mae's second techno-acoustic fusion album after the `Violin Player'. It's a powerful album taking you on a journey through the world of music. You'll like this album if you like music in general beyond any limitations of style. ""On this album, however, I have chosen to take a different approach. Abandoning the `academic' restraints of how far I can decorate and individualize with the `classical' tradition..."" Vanessa takes classical as well as modern pieces and creates something new out of it, which she calls techno-acoustic fusion. Listen to this album with an open mind and it will reveal the beauty and power of music."
+4834,2,Performs as advertised,"Very easy out-of-the-box functionality. I've owned for a few weeks and it seems to be working well. I have a 750 sq. ft. basement fully finished but without A/C ventilation. I'd say the unit does not necessarily draw in enough moisture to cover the entire area, but it definitely makes a difference. Make sure the top air vent door is always open unless the unit will overheat. Don't bother using the internal bucket because it fills up in less than a day. The continuous drainage funtion is great, but opening is slightly too big for a 1/2"" inner diameter hose. I recommend buying the 1/2"" and stretching the opening to ensure a tight fit. The unit is very, very quiet which is fantastic."

+4837,2,It makes me look classy!,"Thank you for the fast shipping.I like the watch every much. The leather straps look better than I thought. I know now I made the right decision to buy this one after a long research.Well, I have a question. What are Movt: Philippines and Strap: China? It was made in Philippines?"
+4838,2,"Orando con gozo, no por obligación","Este libro es muy ameno. Te llama a la oración que nace, no de un sentido de deber, sino de amor y gratitud. No es otro manual sobre cómo cumplir con una obligación religiosa, sino un llamado a intimar con el Creador del universo. No te sentirás culpable de tener una vida de oración pobre, sino que te sentirás inspirado a profundizar más en tu relación con Dios. Y te ayuda a crecer en la Palabra también, pues su exégesis es sana.El Dr. Cornwall ha escrito más de 50 libros de gran relevancia para el cuerpo de Cristo. Te aseguro que disfrutarás éste."

+4840,1,Not what it appears to be,This album does not contain songs from the original Kingston Trio group. They are a look a like group that does not do justice to the original Trio recordings. The silkscreen songs on the title of each CD do not match the actual songs on the CD. The whole collection is a major rip off. Save your money.
+4841,2,Great Gift for Teenage Girls,"As a 50+ adult, I still enjoy reading good fiction written for children and teenagers. And after reading this book, I quickly ordered it and the next one in the series for my two teenage nieces. The books in the On Tour series are wholesome and enjoyable reading and will hold a teenager's attention. Although they are aimed primarily at readers in their early teens, I highly recommend them as gifts for any teenage girl (and for any grown girl that still enjoys teen fiction)."
+4842,2,A good movie IF?,A good movie. If you look to hard you will see the plot early but still enjoyable too watch. The movie gives you enough entertainment value.
+4843,2,Very Good DVD,"This is a very good DVD, with some pretty neat special features on the second disc. The only thing that was odd about the DVD was it featured George McConnell filling in for a sick Michael Houser, only about a month before his death of pancreatic cancer. Thought it to be an odd show to record and release only about six months after it was shot. It is overall a good show with some help from Randall Bramlett and Cody and Luther Dickinson, and for anyone who saw a show at the famous Backyard venue in Austin, TX it is neat to see it since it has now been torn down."
+4844,1,dysfunctional webcam,I purchased two Microsoft LifeCam VX-1000 neither of which are functional. I have been unable to find any contact either on-line or by Microsoft LifeCam VX-1000 Black Webcam - 64L00003 / 64L-00003telephone to help me make these units work which has made them useless.
+4845,1,"Lasted one week, not water resistant.","We bought this as a gift for our son on a special occassion. One week later, in a shallow pool and after splashing around for only a few minutes, it stopped working. Replacing the battery (at 1/3 the cost of the watch) did nothing. Takes a licking? No, it didn't even take a gentle splash."
+4846,1,Art teacher frustration,"I purchased this from an art supply company (either Blick or Sax) and paid about $100 for it expecting a powerful, durable sharpener. Sadly, after a year of use it stinks. It sharpens only on one side, when it sharpens. The rest of the time is does nothing when a pencil is inserted except make a loud whining noise. I know pencil sharpeners break easily but for the price this is inexcusable."
+4847,1,misleading text ....,COVERING is a text that PRETENDS to be broader -- but in reality its just another GAY treatise that defends (a) sexual libertine lifestyle. if you are a racial or ethnic minority don't look for any answers here. the Legal context is probably reaching as the preoccupation with psychology suffocates that misleading premise.sycophantic and Uninspired.
+4848,2,Lots of questions for Reacher,"I think this was the best book in the series so far. Reacher finds himself challenged not only by a mystery, but by some changes in his personal life. The mystery is, what happened to Victor Hobie? Did he die in Vietnam? If not, why hasn't he contacted his bereaved family? If so, who's using his name to terrorize businessmen in New York? Along the way, Reacher encounters a blast from the past that may make him change his drifting ways. But if he's not a drifter, will he be the same Jack Reacher? Lots of great suspense here, and an ending that leaves you wondering what's next for our mysterious hero."
+4849,2,great! nice and small for travel,"As a trombonist, I bought this to adjust the screw at the end of my water key which has a habit of coming loose. It's small and compact, so it fits in my case nicely and works great!"
+4850,2,Great unique collection,"Wonderful recordings of traditional gospel songs. Many of these were sung in my country Methodist church. Unaffected, straightforward presentation that preserves the origins of the songs. My understanding is that Jackson recorded it for his mother, without plans to release it to the public. The collection was shared, traded and took on a life of it's own and was finally released as an afterthought. This could explain the wonderful lack of ""producing"" on the album. Great purchase."
+4851,2,Helps catch more fish,The Mag 5 does everything I need in a downrigger. This is my first electric downrigger and it does takes some practice getting the hang of raising and lowering the cable a few feet at a time. Very happy with this product.
+4852,1,Sima quick connect,"This item is functional, barely. It's OK for use with a lightweight camera and standard lens in horizontal position only. With a longer lens and/or vertical position this plastic unit feels underbuilt with a sagging problem in the vertical position. Spend a few bucks and get an all-metal Bogen product, you'll be happier."
+4853,2,I had better when i worked in IT,"This isn't the best one I've owned but it's simple and it did the job. It ran an old 4700 RPM ATA laptop hard drive straight from USB.The first time I plugged in the USB then plugged in the HD... that was bad. Don't do that.1. Plug in the drive to the converter, make sure it's snug and on a flat surface where it won't get damaged.2. Plug in the USB, preferably to a USB plug on the back of the computer (if accessible) because they're just more stable.3. Wait a while for the drive to spin up (if applicable) and you're golden.It comes with a bunch of cables that can be useful for system builders ... or drives that need the juice (as it was intended). Good luck."
+4854,2,Pretty Good Smelly,"This stuff smells pretty good. I don't know how to really review a cologne, you should prolly just smell it for yourself."
+4855,1,This is not a Pokemon game,"At its heart, the Pokemon series has always been about charm, wonder, character, and a magical sense of freedom. Mystery Dungeon isn't a Pokemon game. It's just a normal game with Pokemon in it. Don't be fooled."
+4856,2,Everyone needs one.,"For what it is, it's perfect! Every kitchen and emergency supply kit should have a manual can opener. The old kind, without all the ergonomics and padding, were uncomfortable to use; this one's a breeze. It arrived within 10 days of ordering, and is exactly as advertised."
+4857,1,Boring,"No new information here, boys and girls. I was hoping for some new insight into Spike. This book basically looks at half of season two from Spike's perspective. I don't think that his character was fleshed out more that the series already had done, or new or interesting stories were explored (with the single exception of explaining how Spike got on the German sub). I was hoping for some snarky dialogue, ripping action scenes, and secrets revealed. Instead, just a tired re-hash of season 2. Skip it."
+4858,1,"works well, fits badly","I've used the envirosept filters before and they work well, but this one fits poorly - it is a full 1/2"" too small in both directions."
+4859,2,"Physician/""brain-author"" endorses this fantastic book!!","I read it once through for personal interest and have used it as a guide with my partner for working through the tantric experience of sex, sexual communication, and sexual meditation. Tells you specifically how to open up and get in touch with aspects of your body and spirit that society murders at a very early point in our existence on this planet. Tantric sex is the most intensely spiritual experience and Anand shows you how you don't have to study for years with a kundalini yogi to acheive a certain ease and expertise with it. It is written from a very personal stance rather than as a sterile clinical tome...respectful and tasteful...all the best to Margot Anand on a wonderful write!...suggest ""The Care and Feeding of Your Brain"" as a companion to this to tune your mind and ready it for these fabulous ways of getting in touch with your sexual spirit...Kenneth Giuffre MD, author, ""The Care and Feeding of Your Brain"""
+4860,1,WORKS WELL FOR STATIC!!!,"Unless you are listening for static instead of a crying baby, I suggest passing on this product!!! It worked great for the first few months but after that you could only hear static"
+4861,2,Inspiring story,"I enjoyed ""Welcome to the Rileys"" very much. I didn't remember ever seeing the previews for this, but recognized the stars and decided to give it a shot. Very inspiring. I'm one of those ""things happen for a reason"" people, so this was right up my alley. I'd recommend it to anyone."
+4862,2,Saven the clips,"It is better than working with a screw driver and pliers! However, it still takes a bit of finesse and muscle."
+4863,1,A Slow Plod,"If you are looking for a Civil War film that includes the rough and tumble of the Blue v Grey battle lines, forget it. After about twenty minutes I started to lose interest in this story consisting of a cast including 5 Union soldiers, 1 Confederate wife her son, a padre and his slave. I was really disappointed that Kris Kristofferson played such a low involvement part in a plot that failed to captivate me.As a UK Civil War re-enactor I suppose I can respect those who viewed the film about man's inhumanity to man (stealing another man's family's food, whilst he's away fighting for the other side) without too much killing being depicted.Unfortunately, I'd much prefer to re-watch Gettysburg, Gods & Generals, Glory etc, which to me are films about the sharp end of the war i.e. the battlefield and the hardship that those fighting in them had to endure, and some of the lunatic decisions made by those that sent them to their sometimes predicatable fate."
+4864,1,Blast Lacrosse,"This game is terrible. It's cartoon violence makes it seem like a looney tune game. It is very unrealistic. The people that say it is good are drunk or afraid to tell the truth. With as much hitting as it has without penalties, it looks like a game that a bunch of drunk 11 year olds would play on the playground without any teachers. I rate this game a 2 because it is ammusing for about ten minutes(that's how long it takes to load the game)."
+4865,1,Too Much Time on my Hands,"Had Dennis DeYoung still been a KEY member (It's NOT Styx without him) I would pay $100 for this blu ray.Sorry guys, I don't want it."
+4866,1,Case study in poor proofreading!,"After being appalled at the endless spelling errors and typographical mistakes in this book, I decided to look up the author, Ted Schwarz. He's a Cleveland resident who claims to have written over 100 books at the rate of 10 pages a day. No one should write 100 books in one lifetime. I would suggest that Schwarz spend a little less time writing, and a little more time proofreading. Lay some blame as well on Vivisphere Publishing, whoever they are.The problem here is that, if you want to know something about Doris Duke, you don't have a lot of decent choices. She may be the exemplary personification of the problems of enormous inherited wealth in the U.S. Her life deserves a scholarly and respectful biography. Maybe one day a skilled biographer and a competent publisher will bring it to us."
+4867,1,Hole in the sole!,"I've never reviewed an item on Amazon before and I just want to help someone else not make the mistake I made in buying these shoes. I bought them in August 2011 and really liked them - comfortable, looked great, easy on/off, etc. After three months, in which I 'd estimate I wore them approximately 25 times, there is now a crack/hole in the left sole. I didn't notice this until today, the first day I wore them in the rain - my foot got soaked due to water coming in the sole. For $75 these should definitely have lasted longer than 3 months of not even every-other-day use. Too late to get a refund or anything so hopefully someone else reads this and avoids the same issue!"
+4868,2,Good Value for money. Not for very high end applications,I haven't had many issues with this router. Setting it up is easy. The only problem is that it goes down once or twice a week. This problem can be rectified by disconnecting the power source and reconnecting it again.
+4869,2,good book,Barrett Willoughby was a family friend and included grandfather Hill and great uncle Sid Barrington in one chapter. I found the story factual and authentic.
+4870,2,See it twice!,"This book gives mainly painters' impressions of reflections in mirrors, waters and gleaming surfaces of all kinds, under different light circumstances and different angles. The text explains why our eyes see a reflection at the same time as they see a surface, and why the reflection tells what kind of surface there is. It also deals with the intriguing parts the mirror plays for model, painter, and spectator. This is really a very beautiful book and it is instructive for me, as a painter.This is a book to look into and to read again and again! Till now I borrowed it from the library, but I am happy to have it for myself now."
+4871,1,Just for college digital photography class.,My teacher pushed all the students in the class to buy this book. I wasn't looking for a comic designing book. Even though designing comics for my story was always for my considered concept on how to put together my possible future book/comic.
+4872,1,Just average - not as good as expected,"The price was great. Top brand name for batteries - Duracell. I was somewhat disappointed with its performance. First of, it is NOT fast at all. The unit does not really stop blinking when the batteries are fully charged. I have left it on for 12 hours for charging. My AAA non-Duracell rechargeable batteries (not part of these package) do not last too long after 12 hours of charging. I am not sure it was the charger or my batteries."
+4873,2,Rad Racing,This is just an all out great game. I love to play it with myself or my friends. This game has great graphics and has many selection of boats! I would recommend you to get this game.
+4874,1,Too much of a good thing,"I like Natalie Merchant. I like her a lot. But I must admit that I have found her post Maniacs career a bit uneven.Take this album for example. It isn't that there aren't some good songs on it, there are. The problem is that, for the most part, there is very little variety too them. All are very pensive and introspective - to a fault. The lone exception is that mildly upbeat ""Kind and Generous"" which is probably Natalie's weakest song ever. Full of practically nothing but ""thank you"" and ""na na na"" it is so repetitive it sounds like it was never finished.Natalie will bounce back. She has lots of passion and talent. But if you are looking to buy I would pass this one over and go with the latest post-Natalie album from 10,000 Maniacs ""The Earth Pressed Flat."""
+4875,1,Tricks of the Camera,"Unfortunately, alot of the footage in this movie is staged. Being a film student, it's fairly easy to tell. The concept of the movie is very original and I would suggest it for anyone who thinks I'm full of it. I guess the small parts that are real could possibly be worth the price of the video. To somebody else, that is."
+4876,1,Have not read the book,"Would like to see a table of contents and pictures or excerpts -like for so many other books- to be able to make a decision on whether to buy it or not, then I might right a review."
+4877,1,Disappointing for a Haynes Manual,I have found incorrect descriptions of procedures that have made the job more difficult. The instruction for removing a clip-on windshield wiper was the opposite of what should be done. There are references to a picture showing removal of the panel trim in front of the radio. The picture does not exist. These errors came up with the first 2 jobs that I referred to the manual about. That is a poor batting average!
+4878,2,Sci-fi skullduggery,"After the first two books of the series set the tone for Cole & Bunch's military/spy space opera, this novel sets the broader themes rolling. Sten, now head of the Eternal Emperor's bodyguard, must deal with traitors within the palace and without, trying to find out who's trying to kill the emperor -- and how to avert interstellar war. Cole & Bunch are endlessly entertaining, mixing blood, puns, action, politics and philosophy into a fast-paced mix. The whole series is great fun and entertainment."
+4879,2,best fantasy series i have ever read..,"ihave read all the robert jordan series of the wheel of time and i still cant believe how good they really are. this guy is amazing and the world also seems so real to me when i am truly engrossed.i have read other comments and i agree that sometimes these books can drag but i feel it becomes worth it due to the sheer excitement it gives and pleasure seeing elayne,rand and all the other characters unravel and grow.my only prob i have had is that i read all the books from number one to five then i had to have a break due to what i would call a mind block.this break managed to last for two years,until i decided that i would begin the sixth book.i did and really noticed how much i had missed the wheel of time and all the differing things that occured inside.i am now eagerly awating the 8th book with excitement.."
+4880,2,The best in the history,This film was elected as the best ever in the history by a major Taiwanese entertainment journal. Of course I agree.
+4881,2,"""The arrival of one of the coolest villains ever...Cell!""","Imperfect Cell - Encounter is a great addition to the DBZ family. I only gave it four starts because it is some-what boring before Cell appears, but mysterious all the same. Piccolo and Kami finally fuse, bringing out the true, stronger Piccolo, but not evil. Cell is really creepy, the way he sucks the life out of anyone who crosses him to gain energy, and he even can perform Goku's special move -- the Kamehameha wave! Buy Encounter to both complete your collection and delive true DBZ entertainment to your home!"
+4882,1,Needed a Good Editor,"It can be difficult to take an author seriously as an expert on any subject when his or her text is so heavily burdened with grammatical mistakes and errors of punctuation. This book sorely needs to be re-edited!Page after page veers astray of the intended subject as the author reminisces about past games and pennant races. While the book relies heavily on example, many times these narratives were just digressions totally unrelated to the chapter subject.This book has some solid ideas to relate about baseball wagering strategy, but the author's thoughts are so poorly organized that the book is simply not a worthwhile read."
+4883,1,HEPA filter failure,"have owned this model for about 2 months and it is the first vacuum cleaner that I have ever had, that I have to vacuum each time we use it! The HEPA filter exit chute started clogging from day one and eventually the filter stopped rotating. We also had an earlier self propelled model U6630-900 that worked well, although the accessory hose stopped working some time ago. This is the last Hoover we'll ever buy..."
+4884,2,Makes Sense To Average Person--Nortel exposed,"I was hesitant to read the book after reading the ""Incoherent"" review left by a reviewer. I read the other book by this author and actually won a few good bets, one of the recent bets I won is shown as an image on the other book page. Seems the reviewer who wrote ""Incoherent"" must have a beef with the author.I can see that there are areas of the book that can be hard to understand if someone is looking for a quick simple explanation of investing techniques or tips to get rich now. However in exposing the Nortel possible stock manipulation, the authors' explanation seems plausible.After doing some homework, his recommendation would have returned prices increasing over 8% annually, plus the rates are still higher than bank returns, 4.6% annually. Better than losing money on FORD or other stocks."
+4885,2,One to own,"With the rich textural guitar weave of Mo Boma (Myths of the Near Future), and the captivating soundscapes of Michael Sterns (The Lost World). If I could only own 3 cd's, this would be one."
+4886,2,two thumbs up!,"I LOVE this movie, and I always have. I remember when I was little and I loved all the singing and magic, and my FAVORITE part was the Princesses on Parade scene- I loved watching the women dance around in their pretty, sparkly dresses. I also remember how much I enjoyed singing along with the No Fear song.And now I'm 16 yrs. old and my sister found this tape in the basement and I just about died laughing after not having watched it for so long, especially at the French frog, Jean-Bob! (Speed the turtle's pretty sweet, too)My sisters (ages 3 & 4) also really enjoy the movie and they love to sing along and dance, especially to For Longer Than Forever. (And I've even caught my 12-yr.-old brother watching this movie when he thought no one was looking)Overall, I HIGHLY recommend this movie, it's EXTREMELY entertaining for any age and it never gets old."
+4887,1,"Laborious, No Reward","After my expectations of a ""gripping"" story had to be lowered, I still plodded on to find something to like about this book. There were a few meaningful insights and a clever turn of phrase or 2. But overall... very very tedious, too much minute detail, pages of dragging timeline that did not add to the storyline. If you have a personal history that identifies with this plot, you may find it of interest. But I found it a lot of work to get through - with no reward at the end. Very unsatisfying. I probably will not give this author another chance, even though many reviewers said his other works are better."
+4888,1,Proof that fecal matter can be pressed onto a disc.,"This is the worst game that I have seen in years.I am not going to repeat what people are saying about this game. I will add the following points:The audio is horrible. You can pretty much hear which individual sound bites they are stringing together to make (in)coherent commentary. Also the sound quality is right up there with a decent AM radio station.The menus are the most non-intuitive I have seen in years.Bottom line is, anyone that has been duped into buying this game: we should band together and file a class action lawsuit against EA. The game is that bad."
+4889,2,30-gal gardening container Fiskers 9405 Kangaroo,"This is a terrific product. I have had a couple and this is the best one by far. Rugged, no fancy stuff, handy side handles, nice material. I use it all the time. 39 gal bag fits right in. Good stuff!!"
+4890,2,One of the best offshore books,"I've just bought and read a number of offshore books. This was one of the best, with specific advice, and the reasoning behind the advice rather than just ""do what I recommend.""And the book includes a lot of valuable contacts of offshore firms, with detailed descriptions of the unique services they provide. That alone can save a lot of time in knowing who to contact, instead of having to work through a generic list of firms and ask each of them what they can do.Compared to many of the offshore books in the market, this is clearly one of the best."
+4891,1,should be just chex,"the chex mix bold party bag was not really a mix at all. it was just Chex with almost none of anything else. the people at the Chex company should fire their chex mixers, and replace. All it was was Chex and a pretzel or two every so often. whats this also about ""bold"" party mix? this mix was mild at best. the bold is just false advertising. also it being party mix means i can only have it 1 out of 365 days, and at the occasional friends birthday. so why buy a 12 pack? other than that its great."
+4892,1,Not actually a pack of 24,"Note that, despite being called ""Norpro 422D Glass Measuring Shot Glasses (Pack of 24)"", including a description that says it is a display pack of 24, and being priced ridiculously high for a single glass, you are actually only buying one shot glass here. Other items on Amazon are a much better deal."
+4893,1,not worth a dime,"I read the reviews, was impressed and bought this blade. Disappointing. It streaks. Worse than my old on. Bought a Michelin for the passenger side and that works beautifully."
+4894,2,Full of amusing anecdotes,"Great introductory overview of the engineering that got Apollo to the moon. A lot of the issues are only summarized and retold in sound-bite-sized anecdotes, but at 300 pages, the book isn't meant to be much more. Very enjoyable read."
+4895,1,Mis-advertisement,"The product by Invisi, advertised to be ""a silicone bra insert"" . . . is NOT. It IS a extremely thin silicone shell with adhesive backing intended to be worn on the breast (with such tiny enhancement it could only be evident on lower elementary children.) This does me absolutely NO GOOD since I have breast cancer and needed it to fill in my bra cup on the side that was removed! The photo appeared to be what I have bought in the past and I received a cartoon image in comparison. It's bad enough to have the physical problem without the insult of bad advertising and photo representation!"
+4896,2,Thouroughly enjoyable,"The wonderful illustrations and clever story about a girl's fantastical journey to prove her ability to do a ""man's work"" has quickly made it to the favorites in our home library. I can imagine the inspiration it may offer a young girl, but having only a son...I share it with him in hopes that he appreciates early on gender equality. He enjoys the art and the musical aspect of the story."
+4897,1,A suckish basketball game,"One of the worst addictive games I've ever played. I hated the game.For a platform game of it's time it had no trace of 3-D graphics.Only lame 2-D graphics with poor,low quality detail of its images. I hated this game so much,yet fatefully everso addictive.Yes,horibble gameplay,and even worst mini-games.I have no clue why it is addictive...It just is.Even though poor quality throughout the game, I recommend this for every PS1 gamer....Because its,uh.....addictive and horrible way."
+4898,2,Slithers through my barrel like a champ,"In my opinion, bore snakes are a must when cleaning. I don't recommend this to be the only method to cleaning and should be a supplement to the cleaning rod and patches.I typically use the bore snake after the rod and patches to make sure I really purge whatever junk is in the barrel. Then I would run a light coat of oil afterwards. That may seem excessive to some but with the possible threat to our gun rights nowdays, we must take good care of the wonderful firearms that we have!"
+4899,2,The Gargoyle on the Roof,"Jack Prelutsky strikes again. It is a wonderful book of rhyme with gargoyles, werewolves, gremlins, and vanpires populating the universe. The illustrations by Peter Sis' are subtle and whimisical, done in color and black and white. Excellent folklore book and recommended to all ages, from K through the 12th grade level, including parents and teachers. Anyone who enjoys folklore will enjoy this book."
+4900,2,How sexy is an ancient Carpathian warrior??,"VERY!!!! Traian is amazing. Dark Descent is breathtakingly arousing and quite the adrenaline pumper. You begin with action and end wanting more. Ms. Feehan has done a superb job continuing her Dark Series, this is a must have for all Carpathian fans. I'd love to give this more than 5 stars!!!"
+4901,1,never buy again,The tape is a very poor recording. My son lost interest because it was continually interrupted by static.
+4902,1,"Light reading, light in substance","A clichéd storyline based on the classic Cyrano de Bergerac, this book reads like a rookie novel written by someone who has a knowledge and passion for Italian culture and cuisine, but little experience in developing a story. I can understand Bruno and his passion for cooking, but have no clue as to his passion for Laura. It seems to be primarily based on her being a blonde American. How exotic. Her character is so underdeveloped- we know she's studying art history, and she enjoys Bruno's cooking with a passion. That's about it. And Tomasso, he's just the cliché for any over-sexed Mediterranean male who encounters foreign females.It's a light and entertaining read if you can get beyond all of the reasons you should put it down and walk away. That being said, I will, however, check out this author's more recent novels. He does seem to have a way with technical details, hopefully his storytelling has caught up."
+4903,1,"Freezes frequently, unreliable... Great reception though!!!","I was completely dissatisfied with this product. I bought it with a mount for my bike and planned on using it for biking and hiking. I returned it after a week. I am very forgiving with a lot of stuff, especially if it's a sophisticated piece of equipment, like this. But this was not up to par at all. I'm now looking at the garmin 60csx. Because at the end of the day, Garmin is still king."
+4904,2,an old favorite...,"still entertaining. great characters.. and good stories..some of the villians are getting a bit stale.. but the hijinks are still fun and good entertainment...maybe the plot is getting a bit ""long in the tooth""...."
+4905,2,"One of the best 2, they ever did!","This album, though not the best selling, is the Best of all the Starship Albums. The rifts include work from Steven Stills, and Have you seen the stars tonight is a song to remember. Various melodies are very enjoyable and this is the best Starship album."

+4907,2,Xlnt Addition,"I Installed this in about 45 minutes, very easily.It showed both power and fuel inprovements. I'm very happy I purchased it. Definitly reccomended."
+4908,2,Fit like a glove,"These are a little expensive but are very good quality. I wear size 10 and the only negative thing I can think of is that my toes are just a little longer than the spaces, but I would rather have that then have them be too long for my toes. My toes cramp up sometimes and these socks seem to help."
+4909,2,Very good read,I'm a big western book fan. I've been readem all my life. I found myself totally engrossed in this one. Good read!(bg)
+4910,2,Everyone Must Read This Book,"Buy it, read it, give copies to your children, your employees, your boss and anyone else you care about."
+4911,2,Pooh sing along,"Great movie for a decent price. The only gripe i would have is the run time. Amazon states this movies is 96 minutes in length, but the dvd itself states 36 minutes. The kids love it, but it is a bit disappointing when they exaggerate the run time by a full hour. Could be a typo, but I basically chose this one because i thought it was a lot longer than the others. Either way it is still a good gift the the kids."
+4912,2,Better than Must See TV,I read this book from start to finish in one sitting. I simply could not put it down. There was so much emotion in the book that I was able to feel everything they were going through. I really felt for Todd seeing as my father went through the same thing as Gin. I would recommend this book to anyone who has ever been through the loss of someone they love.
+4913,2,Better than I expected.,"Honestly I was expecting a really cheaply made key chain, I mean for around 6 bucks or so I'm used to getting things of low quality so you can imagine how surprised I was when I finally opened up the package. Honestly I would have payed $20+ easily for this degree of quality, The words show up clear as day and alot of people have complemented me on it. For a Die Hard GITS fan I promise you wont be disappointed."
+4914,1,Buyer Beware - NOT FULLY MAC OS X COMPATIBLE!,"The HP LaserJet 1012 is not on the list of Apple's compatible printers. In order to get the printer to work under 10.3.4, I have to uninstall it and then re-install the printer driver.Because it is not on Apple's compatibility list, they will not support it.HP claims it is fully supported and blames corrupt computer files as the problem.The bottom line is if you plan to use this printer with a MAC, think again. It is more headache than it is worth. I'm going to ask for a refund on mine, since HP's statement of OS X compatibility is false."
+4915,1,Disappointed viewer,"Lousy director! Actors almost always soto voce or whispering. I have accute hearing and even I could not hear or understand them! Especially the foreign actors with accents.AND they changed the story around so much it was unbelievable. If you read the book you'll understand what I'm saying.Sorry, but thumbs down on this one..."
+4916,2,Good stuff,"This is a great item. However, I found it a bit small in diameter for a set of serious cables."
+4917,1,Unimpressed,"I was v. unimpressed with some of the fragrances, especially Squid Surprise and Old Man's Cadaver.Who the heck wants their house smelling like some elderly fisherman died there last week?Also, an electric bulb works better at lighting a room and is way cheaper to run."
+4918,1,An accident waiting to happen,"My husband an I recently purchased this appliance. After the cheap plastic top cracked and blew off (spewing hot coffee all over) I repeatedly emailed Melitta but have been ignored. And yes, the metal top is impossible to open. No more Melitta products for us."
+4919,1,Far too difficult to learn much through only listening in a car driving around,"The introductory disc of Drive Time Italian employs the repetition and pace that is reasonable for this type of learning which is while one is driving and listening without textbooks, as it is advertised. Following that disc however, the speakers do not repeat, and the pace is very quick. In additon, the instructor uses technical terms such as 'the infinitive' out of a context to provide support for adult learners who have been away from formal schooling for awhile. The lessons need to be done more slowly, and with much more repetition. The Italian and the English version should be used together so that the learner knows what is being said, and the progress the learner is making. I am very disappointed in this set of CDs and believe they were not worth the money I paid."
+4920,2,Blessed Are the Pure in Heart,"""Jimmy is the latest work of Robert Whitlow and perhaps the best. It is the fresh inspiring look into the life of a mentally challenged fourteen year old boy who is coming of age in a small southern town, a town where families go to church together on Sunday and on Friday nights in the fall, turn out for the high school football game. The faith and heart of this ""special"" boy enrich the lives of all those who love him. It is the challenges he faces and the courage with which he meets them that will have you cheering, holding your breath and even crying. You will never forget Jimmy and your life too, will be better for knowing him."
+4921,1,lost in a hotel,"My trip to Japan last summer was awesome. The food was great, ppl were nice, and the places were beautiful. What about the country seen through the eyes of these people in the movie? It seems so boring and freaky. hmmmm let's see... maybe it's cuz THEY NEVER HAD THE GUTS TO LEAVE THAT STUFFY HOTEL! This movie portrays a lot of idiots in real life who waste money to travel abroad but instead of experiencing the culture and learning the language, they create an artificial environment resembling their home and hide in it. no wonder they feel isolated. duh!"
+4922,2,Great book for windows users!,"I picked this book up at the bookstore because it was big, and because unlike all the other books, it had nothing but Windows screenshots. Most of the other ones were 90% Mac pictures, which does the 99% of people who use Windows no good.. :)Beyond that though, this book is simply great. It goes into great detail on every tool, but is not overwhelming. I have never used pagemaker before, and after about 10 hours with this book (to go thru 400 pages worth) I feel like I know exactly what I'm doing. I definately recommend this book."
+4923,2,Charming fables with gorgeous illustrations.,"Animals and plants from a Hawaiian garden teach morals (i.e. appreciate differences, vanity is harmful, sharing is good for your soul). Beautiful full-page illustrations of lush gardens. Note section includes scientific information about the plants and animals. An attractive art book that uses humor and poetry to teach lessons for living. Adults and children will enjoy this book!"
+4924,1,Gangsta,"Not good. If your the kind who likes every other word to be expressed with vulgarity, then this is the album for you. There is really no talent and musically not fulfilling, I ended up giving the cd away because I was so unimpressed, something I never do. The G-Unit cd is better."
+4925,2,Fun to Frolick in Anarctica!,"Clarissa's adventures are fun and funny--I laughed out loud several times. My favorite Clarissa moment was when, as a determined team leader for Snow Survival Camp, she valiantly led her blindfolded team to the designated flag. Unfortunately it was the pee flag (no outhouses in a frozen wasteland, folks), which she only discovered after tromping around in yellow snow.I read this book in one sitting. Clarissa and her two best friends, Delilah and Kate, are very likeable. It was worth the price of the book just to see three very girlie girls succeed in a harsh environment. I enjoyed Adventures of an Ice Princess very much and highly recommend it to readers who enjoy women's fiction."
+4926,2,Tasty bars.,"I have tried sooo many bars.... but now I can stop looking, because I found a winner with these. What a great flavor. I like the almond better than the peanut butter, but they are both excellent. The texture stays great, even after getting smashed up in the bottom of a tote bag! Good stuff. And gluten-free, too."
+4927,2,"Culinary historians, take note!","This is a wonderful piece of scholarship, with a practical purpose. To my knowledge, this is a group of some of the earliest recipes ever translated. I have Apicius, and have done some of the recipes in it, but this takes culinary history back at least 1000 years earlier, and shows some fascinating parallels with both Middle Eastern/Persian cooking and Chinese. My only regrets or complaints are that we still do not know the translation behind some of the ingredients, which makes it difficult to actually try them, and that the clay tablets were damaged in places, which makes the list of ingredients incomplete in places. But the avenue of research is fascinating, and holds some real interesting keys to later cooking styles.A must-have if culinary history interests you!"
+4928,2,reprise,Iam enjoying my purchase of (reprise the Very Very Good Years Frank Sinatra). It's great for the older generation and anyone that has ever listened Old Blue Eyes.It has most of his hit songs and great for anyones collection. Good Purchase for the price. Thanks Amason.Gilbert M. Pacheco
+4929,2,One of Connie Mason's best books ever!,"I have read 10 of Connie Mason's books thus far and find that I simply cannot put any of them down until the very last page has been read. Ice & Rapture has been my favorite but I am sure that I will quickly find another as I continue to purchase more and more of her novels. Ice & Rapture has it all for all you romance novel lovers out there!, romance, adventure and wonderful, real-to-life characters! Keep the books coming Ms. Mason!!!!"
+4930,1,Uninteresting,"I'm not sure what the author meant to achieve with this book. I suppose its irony is supposed to be deep and moving, For me, however, it is not interesting. The style comes across as deliberately childish, and who knows why? Strange indeed."
+4931,1,Included Sony Voice Editor Software Incompatibility,"I returned the Sony ICB BM1 due to the loud audible ""click"" it inserts into the recording whenever it is paused. Sony tech support said that it was a characteristic of all BM1's, not just the unit I had. Then I find that the Sony Voice Editor software is incompatible with my Windows XP Media Center pc, and the more current Voice Editor software which came with the BM1 does a ""dirty"" uninstall (leaves it's own dll files in the windows\system folder rather than the Windows dll files it replaced). This caused my Sony ICD MS515 Voice Editor software (an earlier version) not to work. After a week back and forth with Sony tech support, their conclusion is that ALL Sony Voice Editor software is incompatible with Windows XP Media Center pc's, and I was just out of luck that my older Sony ICD MS515 Voice Editor (and the recorder) wouldn't work now after working fine for seven months. I'll never by Sony again, and am waiting for the new Olympus DS-2200."
+4932,2,Bittersweet,Unbelievable---This is the kind of Love music that you put on for your girlfriend and she moans--Some of the best production and heart warming melodies I have ever heard----try listening---I won't send roses---the bestFly me to the moon---melts me
+4933,1,Reads like a first draft,"I'm sorry, but it's true. It has the same plot as Alanna, except without Alanna's independent panache. The sentences are too simple--""Alanna the Lionness was in fights as a page."" ""Kel inhaled."" Kel's jokes have no snap, Joren is predictable and made of cardboard. Someone must have told Tamora Pierce upon reading about Keladry, ""She has to have a weakness. She's too perfect."" Accordingly, Pierce picked a one-dimensional ""weakness"" for Kel: a fear of heights, and Kel of course has to work to overcome this fear. It's so blatantly done that I didn't like it."
+4934,1,In a word . . .,"Ann Coulter should find another line of work. She is unfit to be published. She needs a shrink or better yet, a spanking or even better, a shrink to give her a good spanking. The book is in a word, disgusting, especially her treatment of the 9/11 widows. How can anyone stoop so low? Does she see horns when she looks in the mirror? She is truly an evil being; you can't even call her a human being because she has no humanity. Don't waste your money."
+4935,2,Christmas carols with homey atmosphere,"If you like Judy Collins and you are seeking Christmas carols, you'll like this CD. Her personal memories and reflections accompanying the songs provide a homey atmosphere."
+4936,1,not worth the hassle,This program takes several steps to do something that should only take one. It's cumbersome and illogical. eClass Grades is much easier to use.
+4937,2,Great theatre book for kids!,A terrific book for my youth theatre. I am always looking for new games to play with the kids. The key is keeping things fresh! This was a big help and a great addition to my bookshelf!
+4938,1,"Leaks, and hard to sip from","I found that more liquid came out of the sides and the vent hole than came out of the sipping mechanism. My son would suck on it, but the mechanism was so tight that the liquid would turn foamy. Bad for the tummy, frustrating, and makes a big mess."
+4939,2,Tasty!,"Almond takes a wonderful journey through the many candy corporations in America. As always, Almond delivers the goods with great humor and literary excellence. You get not only a first hand account of some the inner workings of these candy factories, but you have it presented beautifully, in Almond's own special way.He takes the reader to the more sublime makers, everything from Necco (been a while since you had a Mary Jane?) to the Idaho Candy Company who makes something called an Idaho Spud. The book will find appeal with readers of literature as well as those of us who jones for a little extra sugar in our diet. Excellent read and worth adding to your collection, especially for anyone who enjoyed MY LIFE IN HEAVY METAL."
+4940,1,What is it?,"What to make of this cd? My version is actually called 'Two Greens Make A Blues' with an almost exact cover and the exact tracklisting as seen here. If you are a Peter Green fan and are looking for that trademark plaintive and plangent guitar, you certainly won't find it here! In fact, you'll be hard-pressed to identify Mr. Green at all. He is credited as playing 'Guitar; Bass' and perhaps he does more of the latter than the former, if any. What you will get is a gritty blues influenced album that certainly owes something to Captain Beefheart, as others have mentioned here. It's enjoyable in a way, but a bit of an oddity. So Green buyer beware - this isn't what you're looking for if you want to add to your classic Peter Green collection. If you want something more left-field and are satisfied knowing that the once-splintered guitar master is in there somewhere then go ahead and pick this up."
+4941,2,more than awesome,"i would definitely have to say that this product is more than awesome. it's made very well...pretty white plastic with a slightly curved top. removing the pins between panels is so easy it's crazy. super easy to move. lightweight but sturdy. my only regret is that i didn't order it sooner.Iris CI-604 Indoor/Outdoor Plastic Pet Pen, 4 Panels"
+4942,1,"a good book, until...","I'm a fan of Baldacci's books. This one is a real page turner and you spend a good moment, until you arrive after de 2/3 of the book. Then you realize something is wrong with the story, that is a bit artificial... This feeling is confirmed by one of the most ridiculous ""end-revelation-solution"" that I have read in my life. I told myself: ""He's kidding""... But no, Baldacci is not kidding."
+4943,2,Very Useful,"We have been using this table since a year now and it has been another great buy on amazon. I use this to keep a hot mug of tea, to keep my laptop while sitting on the sofa or just keep misc items like remotes or books on it. Extremely sturdy and serves multiple purposes."
+4944,2,Interesting twist,"Very good book - written mostly from the perspective of the killer;the reasons why he does certain things and how he disguises himself. He has no feelings for other people, except for one older lady. In saving her life, he causes himself to be caught."
+4945,2,"great heater, fast and quiet","bought this heater because its silent, there's a few popping sounds as the panel expands when it heats up but otherwise the heater is dead silent.it's better than hot-oil heaters because it's heats up a lot faster and is much lighter. one thing to note is that there's been a few times it wouldn't turn on. the first time it happened, i thought it was broken (i've had a number of hot-oil heaters die on me in the past) and very close to throwing it away. but the fix is to unplug it for about 30 minutes and then plug it back in. this is apparently a common issue with micathermic heaters. i've had the panel for more than a year, i use it almost every night. it's lasted longer than all other heaters i've owned."
+4946,2,COULDN'T PUT IT DOWN,"Excellent read!!! John Shea may not have choosen the right path in his younger days, but we can only hope that the unfortunate instances which occured early in his life are lessons that lead him to a better future. Can't wait for the Movie!!"
+4947,1,It should be cheap because it's made cheap.,I bought this to protect my phone and it only lasted about a week. After only normal wear and tear the cheap thin plastic was covered in cracks and started breaking apart. It was never even dropped. Finally I just took it off. Wouldn't recommend it...
+4948,1,Blu-Ray Review,"What a terrible movie, garbage. It totally sucks. What is Hollywood coming to. It seems they are running out of stories to make movies about. What garbage. Good Lord. Right up there with Boondock Saints 2 and Smokin Aces 2."
+4949,1,What is it,A 5/16 SHANK???? THE DESCRIPTION IS AMBIGUOUS... HOW CAN YOU BUY A ROUTER BIT WITHOUT KNOWING THE SHANK SIZE.SOMEONE NEEDS TO DO THEIR RESEARCH BEFORE LISTING ITEMS FOR SALE
+4950,1,Sean Krueger knows what he's talking about,"I agree. C'mon WB, get you act together. Sean hit the nail on the head!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Although he was way to generous with 3 stars."
+4951,2,Not the page turner you'd think by the reviews...,"This book attempts to cover the period of Roman history from ancient times to the Early Empire. While it does a good job highlighting the major events, I was a little let down based on the reviews I read here. Most stated it was a page turner and the history just ""came alive."" I, for one, did not find it so captivating. I am studying Ancient Rome and this is the 25th to 30th book I've read, and I think I have learned most from the Colleen McCullough historical fiction (Masters of Rome) series. Most of everything she wrote was factually accurate and when she makes conjectures or speculates, she lets you know in the end notes. Her books ARE page turners. While definitely not as DRY and lacking in depth as Michael Grant's The History of Rome, this book served its' purpose and was readable. Worth the read, especially for a novice student of the Roman world. :)"
+4952,2,Oh my.,"That was awsome. And horrid. And very good television. I wish there had been a commentary on the DVD. I give the content five stars, but the DVD itself gets four."
+4953,2,Yellow!,I recieved the 2 DL-1U Inserts as ordered. However they were both yellow! It may be petty but I wanted the red ones as pictured. Amazon should add this disclosure to the description.
+4954,1,THIS NIGHTMARE ISN'T SCARY.,"** 1/2 stars for this flick. ""A Nightmare On Elm Street 2: Freddy's Revenge"" shares some similarities with the original movie, but gone are the beautiful and charismatic heroine Nancy Thompson (Heather Langenkamp), the touch of the director Wes Craven, and the imaginative and hallucinatory sequences from the first part.Even though, sometimes is an entertaining sequel that several times falls in the mediocrity and conformity of the sequels, Freddy Krueger's diehard fans certainly should be the persons that will enjoy better this flick.""A Nightmare On Elm Street 2: Freddy's Revenge"" is a movie with mixed results, sometimes is good and sometimes is plain ridiculous. The third part proved to be much better than this movie, but still would be far from the original Nightmare. Only for Freddy's fans."
+4955,1,Liked Lights but terrible knocking noise,"After reading several other reviews....there is a common theme...we love the extras to the monitor (light show, music, etc..) but the constant knocking noise is ANNOYING!!! Am returning to toysrus and going to try one rated better."
+4956,1,Adhesive doesn't stick,"It was a lot cheaper feeling than I thought it was going to be for $10. I didn't realize it was just really light plastic. It also had terrible adhesive, and fell off of my car after about a day without any precipitation. It's currently sitting in my glove box because I apparently need to buy new adhesive because the old one simply does not stick."
+4957,2,informative and easy to read,"This was one of the most intriquing books I've ever read. McKibben investigates the different realities of TV and nature. His results, as seen through this entire book, are shocking in their truth."
+4958,1,"Beautiful colors, until it dies in less than 2 years","Bought this about 2 years ago at Best Buy because it was on sale for under $400 and it was brighter and more vivid than the other 24"" monitors on display. Never had any problems with it and loved it while it worked. About a week ago it started hissing (like LCDs do right before they die) and now it will not turn on. Had I known my $400 investment would have not even lasted me two years, no way would I have bought it. $400 is certainly not an amount of money I can throw away every two years for a disposable monitor. This is unacceptable.I also have a Samsung 22"" monitor that is on the same computer and it is 4 or 5 years with no problems."
+4959,2,The Second trip to morganville...,"Phew! After the MAJOR cliff-hanger of the first book (Glass Houses) I was very eager to start this book. It starts off right where the first left off. I won't give anything away but Dead Girls Dance delivers in a big way. The charactors are getting more developed, the romance is getting a bit more rounded and steamier (but still not over-the-top) and the action is still thrilling! Claire just cant catch a break! The only thing I had a problem with was that Caine mentioned Eves brother and while he was in the book for a little bit, he kind of got shrugged off the map by the end, nothing was mentioned of him after a certain point.I will warn you now, like with the first and if your sensative, you will want tissues! As with the first, I was crying by the end of it. Dead Girls Dance leaves off on another good cliff-hanger that wants you reading more, and oh yes, i will read the next one!"
+4960,1,Poor quaity,Bought this as bridesmaids gifts and had to return this item. Item more suited for a child. Pendant ok but chain thin and of poor quality.
+4961,1,"A valiant effort, but it fails.","Remember those cheesy kung fu movies from the 1970s - how bad the dialogue was when dubbed into English? The words of the original songs in French fit every note, change and nuance of the music, but here it sounds like a very bad translation that should have been left alone. The musical arrangements - lots of synthesizers, and overamplified guitars, destroy what's left of the music. perhaps that is the biggest sin in some of the tracks: to try to artificially make them sound contemporary. For the French impaired the album as well as its companion ""Intoxicated Man"", serve as an introduction to the music and words of Serge Gainsbourg. Hopefully at best, this won't discourage English language listeners from seaching out and acquiring the real thing. It sounds a whole lot better in the original French language and arrangements: Trust me!"
+4962,2,Spectacular footage,This is an amazing film filled with breathtaking imagery and beautifully composed music. I'd recommend this to all looking for a soothing experience as well as a fun ride.
+4963,1,Not working at all!!,"This cable should be cheaper. It is too expensive for poor quality. It works only one way! I am disappointed.Update from 2 stars to 1 star!Only after a few days. It is not working at all. It shows like it is charging, but it doesn't. After some time it will pop up warning message on my iPhone 5: ""Charging is not supported with this accessory"".Don't waste your money."
+4964,1,Maybe for the Fourth Grade,"I had read about Rubi in regard to Barbara Hutton. I thought a light read about a playboy and maybe a spy would be a nice change of pace for me. The authors really should be ashamed. There are grammatical errors that should have been spotted. Page 11 'between he and I.' When I read that sentence I threw the book away. Shoddy, sophomoric and it is certainly not worth the price or really any price. I do think it would be a good example of bad writing, bad prose and perhaps how did such a execrable book become published."
+4965,1,Dumb,"The only good part of this movie was the first 15 minutes where nobody spoke a word. Once Antonio Bandares started talking is where the movie went South. Rebecca Romijn was pretty in that vaseline lens supermodel look, but they both looked like they were reading off cue cards. DUMB, DUMB, DUMB.I've seen grass grow faster than it takes for this movie to end... I'm sure it will take in a bunch of cash from DVD sales, but don't waste your time!"
+4966,1,OMG...,"This is an absolutely horrible show. It's dumb. Plus it's just another copy of The OC, Summerland, etc... Blah blah blah... It needs more CREATIVITY!! However, the cast is good...In such case i'll suggest u to watch Laguna Beach.. where everything it's kind of REAL!"
+4967,1,No Clay,"While Ruben is not a bad singer, he's no Clay Aiken. His music is all the same, he needs to diversify his selections and try new things with his voice. I only like 1 song on this album. But those who don't like this album, go listen to Clay Aiken's CD. WAY BETTER!! I LOVE YOU CLAY!!"
+4968,2,An adept glimpse of the myth of war,"Rieckoff has captured the spirit of urban combat and humanizes the humanitarian ideals of American forces and Iraqis alike with his heartfelt memoir. His work is an important addition to a reader's understanding of an environment laced with ideological undertones which combine religion, politics, ethics and morality. Distant observers of a little understood war will gain an insider's view of horrific events, yet not be overly subjected to gory details. When the last page is read, the real costs of war will be better understood, and this will lead to knowing why it is important to support our troops abroad and at home. As a Vietnam vet, I can relate to the writer's views. I salute him and the men he led during their deployment."
+4969,1,Good results but bad for you!,Dr. Atkins new book may produce results but there are health risks involved consuming virtually no carbs everyday. If you don't believe ask your doctor or do some pesonal research.
+4970,1,Ridiculous,"100 minutes of special effects. No real plot. I didn't expect a great movie, but this was a waste of time."
+4971,2,Best sheets I've ever had!,"We ordered the king sized set... They fit the bed very well, the have a great color. They wash up well. They are cool to sleep under, especially in Arizona. They are very soft... Love the sateen feel. I would recommend these sheets to anyone!"
+4972,2,Later came into the news bigtime,"This Jewish author is so very even-handed. You will go with this side and then with the other side and then switch again and again. Things are not completely as they seem and you go on a journey of immersion in 2 cultures, only one prevailing. Years after the book, one of the main participants was involved in a huge federal scam and made national papers for years afterwards. Fascinating and well-written book."
+4973,2,A different album from Paula- yet a much needed one.,"I'm a little surprised that so many people would come on to post such negativities about this new album or about Paula herself. I have been a fan of hers for well over 3 years, and will continue to be. This is a remarkable, powerful, and unusual album. It's great. She does a remarkable job both in her compositions, her vocals, and her lyrics. Hey, and to all you people out there who, like me, support Paula in this effort, remember one thing about some of these negative and weird comments from people; remember that not everyone is blessed with intelligence!"
+4974,2,A Good Start to a Must-have Series,"This is the first of the best Oldies compilation series I have ever seen. The sound is great, only the best sources were used, and the research in the liner notes reflects great dedication on the crew at Ace Records. Seems ironic that a U.K. company does the best job with U.S. music history. You are guaranteed to know at least half of the songs here, the rest will probably be a revelation. For related material, check out the ""Teenage Crush"" Series on this label, as well as ""Chartbusters Usa"", taking the music thru the 60s. A good buy, as are all the volumes."
+4975,1,Much different tracks then my original American album!,Still a good CD but I thought I was getting the original American release which apparently was different then the original European release. Completely different track list. Make sure you review before purchasing!
+4976,1,not a good choice,This shaver shredded my skin and did a fifth-rate job of actually shaving hair on legs. Would not endorse purchasing this shaver.
+4977,1,Disappointing,Got this for my son this christmas. He likes it but finds it too bulky and no way near as easy to operate as his cousins iPod video. He's swithcing to the iPod as soon as he sells the Creative. I must say that the video on the creative is very good looking. Sharper than on Apples iPod. But keep in mind that the Zen is a portable videodevice and the iPod is a MP3 player with videocapabilities. It's NOT a Video iPod. Maybe something will incarnate at Macworld !
+4978,2,Perfect for not so sturdy walkers!!,"I bought these for my toddler daughter after trying several pairs of flipflops with the strap on the back. These are the easiest to keep on and for her to walk in. Also, the thong strap stays in the right place between her toes instead of slipping around between the other toes! They are really cute and very sturdy."
+4979,2,Pioneer love story,This is a great musical for having been filmed on a sound stage. It is family friendly as my 5 year old loves to watch it.
+4980,1,"Very disappointed, waste my time and efforts","My 2 yrs was every excited seeing this bus on Xmas day. However, I need to get the 9V battery for the remote control. Ok, I ran out to buy the battery. Then I found the screw for the battery compartment was located in a deep and thin hole and all my tools cannot reach it. I ran out again for a new screw driver. Then I spent 2 hrs still couldn't unscrew it to install the batteries. I really like to see my son playing this toy but I have to return it after wasting all the time and efforts (2 trips to the hardware store, $5.5 for 9v battery, $2.3 for new screw driver.) I am very disappointed. Amazon, please stop selling this junk."
+4981,1,Extremely poor quality and service,"I received this necklace as a birthday gift from my daughter. When I tried it on, the clasp and one of the links broke. I sent it back to the west coast and my daughter apparently returned it to Gem Avenue. Yesterday I received a box containing the original broken necklace along with a note that said returns were only good for 30 days. Because of the cross-country travel and busy schedules, 30 days wasn't a realistic turnaround. I now have an extremely tarnished, broken necklace and a form letter from Gem Avenue thanking me for my understanding. I discourage anyone from using this vendor."
+4982,1,Didn't hold its charge,I'm not sure why as I've purchased the Sony batteries before but this specific time it is not holding it's charge. I'll put it on the camera and after about 2 minutes it shows 65% less battery life. Not so happy with this shipment!
+4983,2,Finally a butt kickin' chick vampire!,"So I just got this game and so far I am very excited about it. As a girl into gore, it is hard to find an action game like this where you get to play a bad a** chick.Overall, the beginning is good. I like her attitude and some of her one-liners are cute, though a tad repetitive. Perhaps it is my own lack of coordination, but I am thus far finding it hard to control her; mostly, I find it hard to fight, suck blood, defend myself, and make the camera go in the right way all at the same time.I like the graphics and the game is addictive. I think it will be more fun once I gain better control over the actions. Though, there is an option in the setup in which you can simplify the actions and buttons.. for the less capable or coordinated players. Good game. Great action."
+4984,1,This book was horrid.,"I was given this book by a friend. I can only assume they thought it would amuse me. I have never read such poor writing ever. Run-on sentences, misused words, incorrect punctuation...to name a few. Did anyone with a high school diploma edit this book? The premise is also somewhat amusing considering Californians are clamoring for a Terminator as Republican run at the Governorship. I can only hope this review helps one person not read this abomination. I would suggest reading the Enquirer before this book."
+4985,2,LARGE PRINT IT A`INT,"I already have a medium sized Saint Joseph edition. When I saw LARGE PRINT that is what I wanted. While my eyesight is quite good I enjoy the large print format as it is easier on the orbs. I subscribe to the positive minded magazine GUIDEPOSTS which offers a LARGE PRINT edition and have purchased a number of large print offerings . So I was disappointed when the term large print simply meant exactly the identical medium sized edition I have sans the ""leather ""cover . I want my money back. Incidently the contents are excellent ."
+4986,1,Basics Not Provided,"If you are a beginner as I am at Adobe Photoshop, then this is NOT the book for you. It is a more advanced text of Adobe, even though the contents of the book are very well done."
+4987,1,Thomas Trains do not fit in case,"The wooden Thomas the Tank Engine trains do not fit in this case. The case is way to small for the trains to fit in. I would not recommend anyone buying this item. It is just a brightly painted metal box, that doesnt serve any useful purpose. The manufactor should be ashamed for false advertising."
+4988,2,EXCELLENT,much better than the stuff you get from the grocery store and so much cheaper...i'll be buying more when i run out...i use it on food and i put it in gel caps to take as a supplement...
+4989,2,Dreamy soft sheets,Beautiful rose colour and soft comfortable sheets - I'm glad that I bought 2 pairs- excellent
+4990,2,Great and easy to use!!,Love the 12X zoom (optical!!!). Enjoy to options of the viewer. My wife loves taking pictures of ourselves(necessary for our relationship). Only had it for a few weeks and I'm still learning features. I like the way it fits in my hand and the zoom movement is quick. My wife and I are both enjoying it.
+4991,1,How do you expect people to purchase this item?,"The product description states that the sizing is based on neck size, however you don't provide any measurement with the corresponding S,M,L sizes. Are we supposed to guess at the measurements? It might be easier to shoot darts blind-folded!"
+4992,2,first person to reveiw this..ha ha ha,"This is a good album. The songs are good. I like the big egg. I like the good words in the songs. Jeff is my hero, like a fireman, but better. He can play really good. My only problem is sometimes it sounds like ""The Banana Splits"". But it is still really really good."
+4993,1,Complete disaster,"The box art should tip you off. An Army P-40 at wavetop altitude with guns blazing beside some unidentifiable warship. The video is equally incomprehensible, spotty narration with anachronistic footage, dwelling on some battles while ignoring other important ones. The scenes do not remotely match the chapter index and will confuse the eager student and exasperate the knowledgeable expert. South Pacific footage illustrating the Aleutian campaign, even the famous footage of the B-24 hit by flak over Germany to illustrate Midway. A hopeless mess created by non-enthusiasts who apparently understand nothing about the Pacific war."
+4994,2,Solid Trustworthy Consise Desk Top Reference,"First, I like this book. I trust about every line of it. It is itself precise or at least as precise as possible. It summarizes things in a concise and complete way. Required prior knowledge is UML (of course). I'd recommend Fowler's beautiful UML distilled and also even more important a solid understanding of design by contract. I recommend the complete book of Bertrand Meyer ""Object Oriented Software Construction"". Yes I know its many month of reading.The problem with this OCL book is the following: It is difficult to understand anything not prior understood. However once one has a grasp of understanding this book is really clarifying. So, it requires in many areas more maturity in the field than most of us including me have. So, I would wish a book, which starts of at a somewhat lower level, in a less dry diction."
+4995,1,This album should not get any mics or stars!!!,"Back in the day we all once knew of a cat around the way straight out of NYC called Nas who dropped some of the illest rhymes and beats when he came out with albums ""Illmatic"" and ""It was Written"".Nas also dropped some of the illest guest appearances in many other artists albums that I have ever heard but like the saying goes ""What goes up must come down"".Nas was at the top for the longest time but as time went on he started putting less work into to his albums which isn't hard to tell which is why he is soon to fall off.On this album his has maybe at the most 4 tight songs but those songs don't even touch some of his best ones he had earlier in the years before..If your a Nas fan you gotta wonder how much more trash is he going to put out.."
+4996,1,Tapioca hamburger buns,"I was really disappointed when I tried the hamburger buns. No matter what I did with them, including heating them in the microwave with a damp paper towel, they were hard to chew and swallow and did not taste anything remotely close to a hamburger bun. This is one item I would not recommend to any one."
+4997,1,"OK for traveling, but ...","I've been buying Conair blow dryers almost since they were invented (I'm 63) and this is the first one I've had a problem with. First of all, I did think it was louder (or higher pitched) than I was used to. Cord, folding, etc. works fine. However, lately I haven't been able to push the switch into the ""High"" position. I thought maybe it had to do with the reset button or something, but no luck. If I still have the receipt, I'll try to return it and get something else."
+4998,2,nice product,i take a serving of these whenever i need an energy boost. the cost is reasonable and i would recommend it. the only thing i don't like is that 1 serving is 4 big capsules (use 1-3 servings per day).
+4999,1,Awful excuse of mallcore.,"This is just another pathetic excuse of an albumand yes they are nu metal (just like the rest of the 110% nu metal), mushroomhead and this albumis as dull as it comesLong Live Real MetalDeath to nu metal."
+5000,1,Decent but fragile -- caveat emptor,"All of the reviews below are accurate in their evaluation of the style and function of this keyboard, but no one mentioned its unparalleled allergy to spills.As a computer professional and enthusiast I've spilled many liquids in many keyboards over the last twenty years. In all cases, I've been able to dry them off, or in the worst-case scenario, disassemble and clean the membranes. Not so with Apple keyboards. Liquid damage to the membrane is fatal. It's almost as if they used water-soluble switches!So third time's a charm, Apple, or a curse -- last night my third and final Apple keyboard fell victim to literally a few drops of water I spilled from my glass. I shall not buy another one. They're either intentionally designed to be susceptible to damage to force you to replace them, or Apple is so interested in the bottom line as to not care about the durability of their products."
+5001,2,Love Love Love this movie!,A very realistic cop movie. Jake Gyllenhaal was excellent as well Michael Pena. I thoroughly enjoyed watching it and recommend it 100%!!!!!
+5002,1,Final Fantasy X,"the game wuz really good but this reveiw is on the few bad things about it. ok here u go1.u cannot skip cutscenes2.i am not an ""expert gamer"" so to me this wuz very hard to finish3.i wish they wud have done the relationship between tidus and yuna would have started earlier on4. they graphics are nice but all cg sequences are5.this is not on the game but a person wrote a review and they did not know that X means 10 so fyi: X=10!6.sum of the fights w/ feinds and bosses are really unfair7.wakka is a racist!8.rikku is treated badly cuz she is al bhed! damn u wakka!"
+5003,1,stay away!,"I guess I was one of the last idiots to buy this product since it seems to have been discontinued two days after I bought it. I was persuaded by the good reviews it received, one with over 200 helpful votes. I live in an apartment in NY and this thing doesn't humidify at all (it never went above 34% though the desired humidity was set at 50. The cold breeze it emits forces you to keep it away from where you are and the filter got brownish after just 3 days. I could go on and on. I have just wasted 45 dollars and need to get a new hot mist one. You have been warned."
+5004,2,Good for the money,"These goggles are stylish and provide a wide viewing range. The downsides include that they still fog up a little after a few uses and the low profile design can leave a temporary mark around your eyes. Overall, it's worth the $."
+5005,2,"Tosca - Nilsson, Corelli, Fischer-Dieskau; Maazel (1966)","Several years ago, this was my first modern sounding Tosca, Despite not rating it now as highly as I did then, it still has a lot going for it.Birgit Nilsson is thoroughly involved, dramatically alert and in wonderful vocal shape throughout. She proves herself, not only to be a most worthy Tosca but also an absolutely valid interpreter of Italian repertoire besides her unsurpassable Turandot (Ballo, Aida, Macbeth).Franco Corelli is a dashing Cavaradossi, at turns tender and heroic, capable of controlling his towering instrument to match the dramatic action. His third act is truly ravishing. A reference portrayal.Once you get past Fischer-Dieskau's mannerisms and Maazel's, at times, rather lacklustre conducting, you're faced with a very good recording of Puccini's opus.Don't be fooled: this is far from being one of the worst recordings ever made!"
+5006,2,Excellent CD,"I bought this CD for the one song ""Never Gonna Let You Go"" but was pleasantly surprised to find that the whole CD was brilliant. A must have for any music collector."
+5007,1,Photo instructions are bad,"I have been doing intermediate Pilates for about 18 months now. I saw this book in a store and was curious about it, so I picked it up and started flipping through it. I was shocked to see that in each photo, Denise has her head turned, grinning at the camera instead of actually putting her head in the proper position for the move. Head position is essential to all the moves, and I don't know very many that involve turning one's head to one side and smiling widely! LOL Anyway, to be fair once I saw that I didn't read any of the book. Maybe she makes up for it in the written descriptions. But that photo faux pas was enough to make me put down the book and not look back. I can't believe some editor let that book get published that way! It could be a great book for all I know, but just those photos were enough to make me cringe!"
+5008,2,Hunger Games,This movie was great. I highly recommend this to everyoneof all ages to watch. I also heard that the books are verygood.
+5009,1,very dissapointing,The box came unsealed and the frontline packaging was open. It look like someone had opened the packaging. I have never ordered from Amazon before and recieved a product like this. I'm very upset with this.
+5010,1,Great deal.....if you want part of the collection!,"Now as much as I ""love"" these crappy movies, when I buy a set on blu-ray, or dvd for that matter I expect for the whole thing to be there. I have back to the future... all 3 movies are there. I have robocop... all 3 of them. F&F... 3 of the 4. So now I can buy this and have ""some"" of the collection, or wait until they sell through these and make a 4 pack. I'll wait ;)"
+5011,1,amusing but not true to jane austen,"i will credit this film with being amusing and entertaining, but if you are looking for a film that is more true to jane austen's work, this adaption is definantly not the one... it was most dissapointing when it came time for mr. darcy and ms. elizabeth to meet by chance at pemberley, and the film continued without the encounter... it left out the one point that, to me, made pride and prejudice, pride and prejudice.. (the point that mr. darcy laid aside his pride to win the women he loved, and ms. elizabeth let go of her preconcieved prejudices to accept the love that she realized she deeply longed for) this was an enjoyable adaption but my advice would have to be to spend a few more dollars on either of the 1985 or 1996 versions and enjoy a storyline that follows pride and prejudice as it was written by jane austen"
+5012,1,Just plain bad.,"I couldn't even get more than a few chapters in. This has to be one of the worst books of any genre I've read - but definitely the worst lesbian erotica ever. I bought it based on the high reviews, but going back through them, it's apparent they are written by the same few people."
+5013,1,Worst Book Ever!,"If it was possible to give a book negative stars, I would give this one -2,000 of them. This novel was the biggest waste of my time, money and brain power that I have experienced in 10 years. I don't understand how this was on the best-sellers list for so long. Does the American public have no taste in good literature whatsoever? Lauren Weisberger has created a masterpiece of hateful characters (yes, ALL of them), contrived situations, dead dialogue and a plot that is so weak it barely exists. Don't read this book. You will regret it for the rest of your life."
+5014,2,I Am In Love With Jobot!,"From the very start of this cd (Prelude in Reverse) shows the unique style of this young band. From there things just keep getting better! With guitar parts reminiscent of Dave Matthew's Band and heartfelt lyrics written and performed by Mr. Biggins, each listening brings to light new surprises. After seeing a live performance of Nokomis Court (the drummer, Jobot, is so hot) I absolutely can't wait for their second album, which should be out sometime later this year!"
+5015,1,Very Disappointed,"This electronic dictionary is not the same as the print dictionary. The dictionary does not have guide words on top of each page. It's very misleading for the publisher to have this electronic version that looks like a print version, but is not."
+5016,1,Not a good text to learn IC design and fabrication.,Some exercises have no basis in the test. Mask illustrations are not in alignment. The text drifts in spots and makes learning difficult.
+5017,2,One of my very FAVORITE books of all time,"Intriguing, moving, fascinating, and very scary. Provides insight regarding the infiltration of Marxism into the inner core of our nation's institutions. You will have a whole new appreciation for Nixon, and gratitude for Chambers."
+5018,2,Great buy,"This TV is every bit as good, if not better than my parents Sony Bravia they paid twice as much for. The delivery was flawless and it was easy to set up ourselves. We did need to purchase high quality HDMI and audio cables. This is a fantastic buy."
+5019,2,Comfortable with Great Sound Quality,"o These headphones fit comfortably, but tight, so they become uncomfortable over time.o The sound quality and noise cancellation is superb.o WARNING: There is no inline volume control and the sound can come across VERY LOUD. I have to be very careful to set the computer volume low before putting the headphones on to avoid becoming deaf."
+5020,2,Kick Ass,"This album has many good songs from pantra, mighty mighty bostons, pennywise, and more get it now"
+5021,1,Er...,What is this? Some kind of compilation of unreleased Marilyn Manson songs? Because that's all it sounds like. Just some spooky kids trying to sound like Marilyn Manson. Bleeh.
+5022,2,Another Great Vietnam Book,"I have read both Recondo and Death in the Shau Valley. Larry really makes you feel the experience of Vietnam. If you are interested in learning about the experience of a vet., read this book."
+5023,2,Another hit for King...,"Stephen King returns to what he does best, short stories. His other collections, ""Night Shift"", ""Skeleton Crew"" and ""Nightmare & Dreamscapes"" contain some of his very best work. While there are fewer stories here (only fourteen) some of them are among his very best including ""The Man In The Black Suit"" and ""L.T.'s Theory Of Pets"". King is lucky in that he is one of the few authors who can get volumes of short stories published these days, which is a shame."
+5024,1,A little too small,"While it may well hold 100 feet of 5/8"" hose, your garden hose is likely bigger than 5/8"". Our hose is 1"" in size and thus we were disappointed to find that this reel is not big enough to hold all of the hose."
+5025,2,Auntie Mame is delightful!,"Auntie Mame DVD:I know it's from 1957 but I love seeing how people were distinctly separated into classes with their prejudices and how one crazy woman tries to raise a boy to not fall into those trappings and to not be a snob. Touching, heart-warming; I laugh, I cry. I watch it every holiday season. This DVD will replace my VHS format."
+5026,2,A good book overall,"This book is essential to someone who needs pictures (I do not). Should this be the case, and if you plan on rebuilding one of these transmissions, I strongly suggest you use this AND an ATSG manual....and you cannot go wrong. The ATSG manuals is the best, the ONLY, and it's the real bible....but there are no pictures. Once you've done one, you don't need pics, but if you do....the Haynes is the one to buy, and they are cheap! If you have both, you should be OK. I strongly recommend this manual for the price, it would be worth it for twice the money. I have no real use for it, but I wanted to see one for myself and I am quite impressed! If you are not a seasoned transmission guy, buy this, you won't regret it. I am not a fan of the Haynes manuals, but they did a nice job on this particular one and you certainly can't beat the price!"
+5027,2,What a page turner,"I could not put this book down! Ayun Halliday captures the joys and frustrations of mothering so beautifully. She manages to talk about those dark four o'clock in the afternoon moments where your kids drive you nuts with great accuracy, but also with so much wit. If you are a parent, this will ring many bells and make you laugh out loud. If you are not a parent, it becomes a gripping story about contemporary life and the juggling act that parenting without the support of an extended family has become."
+5028,1,VERY CHEAPLY MADE!,"I purchased this after reading the reviews on this sight. It wasn't what I expected when I opened it. The first thing I noticed was the magnet had very little power if any at all. It would not stick to my rifles. If I wanted one to hold ,I already had levels that were small enough to hold by hand. It was very cheaply made,had some sort of black stuff inside the bubble case.I returned it and ordered a Laserlyte level that fits on my laser bore sight. I hope it works,as this product would not. I tried it on the chamber and on top of the scope neither one had enough magnetism to stay in place. I tried on several firearms before I gave up.Maybe I just received a bad unit?"
+5029,2,An incredible book of sefl discovery.,"This sequel to The Way of the Peaceful Warrior transports the reader to the moments of Dan Millman's self discovery...acknowledging his inner spirit. Highly recommended for all those beginning their own journey down the path of the Peaceful Warrior. Many questions left unanswered in the first book are revealed to the reader in this account of Millman's quest for 'the' answer, and in the end....you'll just have to read the book!"
+5030,1,0 star quality product,"Well, 15 dvds later and my computer (and every other) can not recognize a single disk I have burnt. Now I tried burning on every speed my plextor supports and I have come to the conclusion that this is the most worthless thing I have ever bought on amazon. Mabey some of these other guys got lucky with 1 in 3 but so far my record in 0 in 15 and counting. Unfortunately I fell in to that little rebate trap (doh) and now I can not return them. Nice, well hope you have better luck in purchasing this product and learn from my experience, test before jumping all over that rebate."
+5031,1,Cold Steel Grosse Messer,After viewing the video of this sword on cold steel's site I had to get it. When it arrived I was disappointed. The sword did not come razor sharp like cold steel claims. The handle is made of soft wood and came with a hairline crack in it. You can get a sword of this quality or better for $100 cheaper on just about any sword site on the internet. I purchased a United Black Katana for $60 that is a far better sword than this. Buyer beware this sword is not all it hyped up to be by Cold Steel.
+5032,1,"Amazing for price, but not quite what I needed.","I bought it to charge our iphones in the car, or an iphone and ipad. Its not clear in the description if it works with those (some don't) and found out when I got it that only ONE of the two ports works for these devices, and the other port doesn't (it says so on the device itself too). It was so cheap it was worth the experiment, but doesn't work for its intended purpose of charging both our phones at once in the car.** Update **Used it once, and worked for a while and quit while on a car trip. Took it apart and found a bad solder joint. Re-did that, and it worked for a hr more or so, then quit altogether.... Skip this one and just get a Griffon charger; worth the extra money."
+5033,2,Make you wanna cry?,"I really think she should have out Home aint where his heart is Anymore"" at the end. Is started crying while listening to it and could listen to the rest."
+5034,2,Toddler love this movie!,My 2 year old just love this movie - she watch this everyday (eventhough Christmas is over!) My husband and I love the songs too.
+5035,2,Right size - okay price,"Just the right size for my needs and easy to carry around. Price is okay. I'm starting to see some less expensive since I've bought mine. Would I buy another one from PNY? Yes, especially if it was 4 - 8 gigs!"
+5036,1,You get what you pay for,"The very first time we used it some of the non-stick coating came off while making omlets. We even used cooking oil. We should have gotten one with a better coating, but there is no way to tell from their description. Handle needs to be tighten every so often too."
+5037,2,Best of British Humour,This is a great Video and a pleasure to watch such natural acting combined with the best of British humour
+5038,2,Graceland,Graceland. This is a classic recording by Paul Simon. The 25 yr. documentary on PBS showing the history of its making was excellent.
+5039,2,Saint Etienne - Sylvie,"SYLVIE takes Saint Etienne's tale of sibling rivalry out to the dancefloor. The Trouser Enthusiasts immediately throw in some HI-NRG punches that keeps them hopping across the mat, laying low Stretch `n' Vern's cool, but featureless version. But the title goes to Faze Action, who achieve a TKO with their ""Friday Night Boiler Mix,"" a deep and pumping dub that features a vicious nu-disco uppercut. Floats like a butterfly, stings like a bee."
+5040,2,Goover Flair,"We are very pleased with the Flair. It is light, maneuverable and powerful. It has great suction and has a low profile that lets it get under chairs and other furniture. I would recommend the Flair to anyone looking for a light duty vacuum."
+5041,2,TomTom Battery,The item was shipped promptly and the packaging was good. Item was a good price and will come in handy for future use.
+5042,1,Rock Hard,I could drive nails with this thing. My dog is 50 pounds and I am not going to throw it at him. maybe if he was 150 pounds
+5043,2,Amazing...,love it...very touch.it's to bad that in the dvd description doesn't mention no subtitles
+5044,1,Not worth it!,"Not really Tai Chi. More like dancing, bit really a training tape, Would have liked to see more real tai chi."
+5045,1,Flat in a day,"We got this for my 5 year old son's birthday. As you would expect, he and his little brother had a blast punching and jumping on the thing. It was so much fun, for 1 day. We woke up the next morning to find it deflated, a hole in it already. Taped it up, another hole. Of course boys are going to tackle and jump on it, it's just not made to take a beating. Thankfully we were able to return it without an argument."
+5046,1,Do not buy from Karate Depot!,I purchased two uniforms in the same size one in white the other in black. The black uniform's waste was was half the size of the white and way to small to wear on any child that age. They said that it was not defective after I sent them picture of the two pairs of pants showing the size difference. When I returned the items at my own expense they not only deducted the shipping I paid but they deducted an additional 3.00 for shipping expenses. Terrible customer service. It also took them weeks to refund my money after several calls.
+5047,1,Elusive is Correct,"If I hadn't already read the book and watched the movie version with Jane Seymour and Anthony Andrews, this would have been a hard movie to follow. David Niven does a great job acting for the time period it was filmed (1950) but the VHS is blurry and the audio is not great.Best off to buy the VHS or DVD version of ""The Scarlett Pimpernel"" with Jane Seymour. It is most entertaining and I never get tired of it."
+5048,2,Interesting Projects,All the projects in this book were original and interesting. We especially liked the medieval slingshot device. Good book if you want something different.
+5049,2,Not a strong ending for this trilogy,"While I am a fan of Ms. Potter's books, this third book in the series was not the best of the lot. Usually the third book in a series of three, is always the best since it ties up loose ends carried through the previous books and allows us to find out how the previous books's couples are doing. I just wasn't as excited about the characters. It was still a better-than -average read and I wouldn't discourage anyone from reading it. I rate the first two books as 5'sand enjoyed the series as a whole."
+5050,1,Awful.,"I'm not a big fan of Tool, but I know that Optiate, Undertow and Aenima are great albums, however Lateralus was a terribly boring album, incredubly dissapointing and predictable and lacking any real life.....this album though is a smashing disgrace, the songs sound like they are thrown together crap, not arrangments, no melody tune, structure let alone feeling or emtotion plain boring and dull. No wonder, just like Lateralus they needed to include overe the top eccentric artwork to compensate for the crap they are putting out under their name these days ""TOOL"" - the deep phyllosophical mysterious band that was been, a bunch of old 40 year olds trying to be worth it.Well they are not, back in 1997, they were the biggest thing since sliced bread, but they were actually good then. Which is why Aenima was one of the biggest selling album of the 90s.Any artist that includes goggles on their cd cover to look at artwork had to be faking it, I thought it was about the music anyway."
+5051,1,I also received a FAKE Mac,"Don't order Mac from Amazon. I also have been using this product for years & this is not the real deal. Smells like cover girl, goes on orange, & is flakey. Will never order Mac online again. What a rip off!!"
+5052,2,Is it grate or what?,"For draining drying dusting or whatever, this square mesh is the best answer. Ladder like grates often have too wide spacing for good suupport of your baked goods. The half pan size is small enough for most ovens and even for small tasks easy to use . For larger tasks nothing can beat it in the home kitchen when paired with a half size baker's sheet pan"
+5053,2,Wonderful movies,Received in a timely manner and all three dvds worked just great! It is nice to receive items in good condition and that they work.
+5054,1,"Awesome gingerbread house, but did not survive shipping","Don't get me wrong, the house is pretty awesome. There are quite a few pieces and accessories, and as gingerbread house kits go, it's very well-stocked. However, it arrived in quite a few more pieces than I expected. All the trimmings and accessories were strapped down well, so those all survived. The main blocks that made up the house itself though were pretty loosely packaged in the box, and those all broke during shipping. All in all a good product, but I think I'll pick it up in stores next year instead of trying to get it shipped."
+5055,2,celtic women a new journey,"always a good entertainment DVD....have the other one....this one is great, but I miss some of the ladies that were present in their other DVD....still an enjoyable DVD worth watching again and again."
+5056,1,Not a good buy for Android,"I downloaded this file to my Samsung Fascinate phone and the file just won't open. I tried reloading and nothing. I don't know if it works on an actual Kindle as I don't have one... yet. But for an Android, totally does not work."
+5057,1,Stay away from these.,"I'm not an audiophile, just a plain ole' guy that likes quality. These speakers leave a lot to be desired. Not only do they sound like tin, but they ""skip a beat"" every minute or so. At first, I thought it was my sound card (a Creative product, too.), but I went to W**mart and bought a $10.00 set, and they work and sound great."
+5058,2,Awesome gift!,I gave this to my aunt and she absolutely loved it. The product speaks for itself. The Monkees are awesome. Highly recommend!
+5059,2,Good for me,"I found this video enough good to refresh my memory. I took 1 semester of Tai-Chi in the college but since I did not really praticed it too much, I forgot the sequences. With this video now I remember all of 24 forms."
+5060,2,Great goggles!,"Love these goggles! They are tight, keep out the water and work for the hour of swimming I do everyday. I've had other cheaper speedo goggles and like these the best. I've only had them 2 weeks though, and didn't have to replace the nose piece.Works great with the Dolphin Nu waterproof MP3 player!"
+5061,1,His weakest effort to date,"This album might have had a lot of social significance lyrically,but I'd go to Dylan or Cohen for that,if it was what I was looking for.Good changes,fresh & funky arrangements,and incredible vocals are what McDonald is known for,not predictable writing,static arrangements & melodies,and basic production.The album isn't pure dreck by any means,but for McDoobie(and Tommy Sims as well),it's regrettable and forgettable."
+5062,2,A milestone in it's area.,"Excellent color pictures mixed with a well-written and professional text. All to all a balanced book. Novice or expert, you will enjoy many hours of good reading.(an extra plus for the ""care"" section of each animal, useful and often hard to come by.)"
+5063,2,Bramwell,"Excellent! You have to start at season one, you will be walked through social classes, sexism, damned determination, and love. A must see for edwardian period costumes, lifestyle, architecture, woman power, happy and sad life events. You will not be able to stop watching until you have completed all 4 dvd's. Enjoy!"
+5064,2,"This is a terrific tribute to ""Old Blues Eyes.""","Not as good as ""Singin with the Big Bands"" CD that Manilow released in 1995 or ""Paradise Cafe"", this CD is still a terrific tribute to ""Old Blue Eyes."" The difference is that in ""Singin with the Big Bands"", Manilow sang over the original background and orchestra music of the originals like Glen Miller and Johnny Mercer. With the Sinatra CD, Manilow has some great musicians backing him up; however, for example, ""The Summer Wind"" sounds too much like a '70s lounge act. You can't outdo the Nelson Riddle arrangements. Manilow's opening and closings pieces which he wrote truly summarize Sinatra. Manilow's choices are excellent. They just don't write songs like this anymore. Too bad he couldn't add ""Rain or Shine."""
+5065,1,Long horn review,"Fun story. Mostly a collection of different ideas for zombies jammed together and set in the old west. No development of the characters, so don't expect to get to caught up in the story. It's a whimisical read."
+5066,2,Great... But not the best,"Although season 6 of the X-files provided many laughs and entertaining episodes, it is not the series finest. The move from Vancouver to L.A. gave the X-files a sort of phony look. When the show was in Vancouver it always had a sort of creepy look to it, but in L.A. it just looked like all other shows. But it still remains to me the best shows ever created. And season 6th is definetly an excellent addition to any collection."
+5067,1,NOT WORTH YOUR TIME!,"I purchased these skates thinking they would be ok. I wore them ONCE.....ONE TIME.....at the skating rink. Within the first hour, the bearings in one of my wheels fell apart. The skating rink employee that fixes skates said that the bearings used in these skates are the lowest quality available. He was nice enough to replace the defective bearing at no charge. Also while skating, the bottom of my boot continually hit the front outside wheel in my turns causing me to stumble and/or fall no matter which direction I was skating (Clockwise/counterclockwise). If I were you....DO NOT PURCHASE THESE! Spend a little more money and get a better pair. I definitely got what I paid for.....CRAP!"
+5068,2,works great,"Works exactly as it says. It certainly isn't a powewr house, but works very well for my needs over the last year! Great purchase!"
+5069,1,disappointed,With 200 pounds of drywall tires bowed . This made it impossible to control. I wound up carrying each sheet by hand. I have several trojan tools and all work extremely well. This was the first onei have had a problem with.
+5070,2,Great product,This is a definite improvement over Microsoft Office 2003. It has alot of very nice additional features. It works with Office 2003 if you are interacting with people who have Office 03. I would highly recommend it.
+5071,2,Great Plotting,"This, the second of the Spenser series, is a really good read. The plot twists and characters are all believable. The author handles the subject of teenage homosexuality with great aplomb. I would recommend this to anyone!"
+5072,1,No Salt Tester!,There is no salt tester in here!!!! They have phosphate tester instead!! UGH!! I got this because it said salt!!! Everything else works great!!!
+5073,2,The MTV Generation,"I thoroughly enjoyed this performance video. Being a dancer, myself, I purchase many belly dance videos and was very pleased with this offering from Amira Mor. Her dancing is spectacular and she is quite stunning. I would love to see more videos from her, including a teaching video. She has a style that is exciting to watch and should be shared."
+5074,1,Worst printer I have ever owned,"The Canon S300 has been a nightmare. My invoices come out fuzzy and or faded. After two months of lite work it needed a part replaced. Plus the ink cartridges are so small that you have to replace them very often and office depot and other suppliers don't carry them, so you better not run out. The only place I have found them is on the internet."
+5075,1,Poor Sound and Not Enogh Wes,"With so much Wes Montgomery out there, I would avoid this CD. The sound quality is poor, and on the Billy Taylor cuts the piano overly dominates. The live set with Clark Terry is much better, but the fifth track in the session is not included."
+5076,1,Sadly disappointed,"I wanted to like this book as it is so highly praised by people I admire. It was a selection for our church book club and I'm glad I had exposure to Father Nouwen's interpretation of the message of the Prodigal Son, one of my favorite New Testament passages. Unfortunately it did not arouse much spirituality in me. I felt that Father Nouwen overworked the connectedness between his own experiences and the biblical message. It was a long slog to finish the book which engendered guilt in me for not being more moved by Father Nouwen's words. He was a dedicated and thoughtful Christian who lead an exemplary life of charity and service but his message here was diminished by repetition. Prudent editing would have resulted in a more readable and inspirational book."
+5077,1,broken sticks,"There are 6 colors, 2 of each color. The box of sticks didn't come wrapped in bubble wrap or anything. It was just thrown in with the other items so that only 5 sticks made it intact; 7 broke in 2 or 3 pieces (though 6 of these at least 1/2 of stick left). I don't think its worth buying chalk from Amazon again even if the chalk is colorful and bright."
+5078,2,Just a matter of time before this girl is insanely famous,"I guess it's kind of fun to be in the small group of people who can say ""we knew her when."" I was going through a rough time this winter and Vienna's ""Waking Hour"" CD put me in the best mood! It's so awesome, like every single track is outstanding. I'm a musician and she's the kind of performer I go see and they make me think, boy do I need to get it together. You know how some CDs you buy and you only like a song or two so you never get around to listening to it? Well this is NOT one of those CDs! All you have to do is listen to about 30 seconds of any given song and you'll be hooked like the rest of us in this review section!"
+5079,1,There are better books on trail life,"I was extremely disappointed in this book. I have read a number of other trail journals and was looking forward to this edition. I almost put it down in the first 100 pages. The trail journal entries could have done without Mr. Garvey's complaints about the poor work of VOLUNTEER trail crews in building water bars, blazes, and trail routes. I also didn't think knowing there were 15 pieces of litter on a particular section was the level of detail necessary. While this was an impressive accomplishment of one of the trail's greatest champions, the book fails to deliver in the same manner. The sections on gear needed are outdated as well. I recommend AWOL or Iron Toothpick."
+5080,2,a good book,"this book over all was a good book. i've read better, but i had to read it for school. it was an injoyable book but it was sad. if your senitive this book is still okay, but i would've liked some one to warn me about it.it is also made for all kinds of ages because it is written in a very plain way, so younger kids can read it. But older kids might understand it better and get a deaper meaning out of it."
+5081,1,Try with other movies,"Yo compre este documental esperando ver algo espectacular , sin embargo como fue originalmente filmada en dos dimensiones no se ve muy bien.le incorporan y sobreponen a la filmacion original unos efectos digitales en 3d pero no encajan muy bien dentro del film.No recomiendo comprar este documental si lo que quiere es verlo en 3d, si le gusta en 2d es un buen film, pero no vale la pena pagar mas por que venga en 3d."
+5082,2,Imminently Adoptable,"My life doesn't run like clockwork, and the perfect wine isn't always chilled in the frig when I need it. These sleeves are the perfect answer. My niece gave me one, which was... adopted... by someone at a party, so I'm now on my second one. I keep it in the freezer, and it's ready whenever a quick chill is needed. Put a bottle in, throw it in the frig, go walk the dog for 10-15 minutes and, voila. I don't think it's meant for a champagne bottle but, in a pinch, I've squeezed one in. It's also a great way to keep a bottle cold in transit with almost no moisture/sweating. It flattens, so fits in a purse for the return trip... that is, unless someone else sees how great it is and decides to adopt it."
+5083,1,this book suffers from tunnel vision,"This book is not about military interrogation at all, although it starts off that way. This veteran is not writing anything with any literary integrity. Instead of being about interogation, this book is mereley a blind and gross salute to the U.S military. I am ex-military myself and I love my country more than anyone but this book is more about blind praise than anything else. my advice...don't buy this book. The type of arrogance in this book is why people hate America so much"
+5084,1,No sir i dont mind about it.,I tride this lots of times already. I dont really mind about even though they are my favorite cartoons. When you get into stimpys mouth his teath start to go down. You'd be better off getting Stimpys invention for your sega genesis.
+5085,2,The Great Gatsby,"The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald is a must read book. I give it 4 stars because of the dramatic scenes and situations that Fitzgerald depicts. The book is an epic love story between Jay Gatsby and the lovely Daisy Buchanan. Gatsby who lives in a large mansion would throw tremendous parties that he hopes will enable him to win back the insational love of the married Daisy Buchanan. During this story Gatsby follows his dream of getting Daisy back at any cost......even death of other people or himself as well. Fitzgerald's strong values and beliefs were clearly presented which is a very entertaining style to read. One thing I would criticise about this book is that the action of the story does not start until the fourth chapter, which discouraged my interest greatly."
+5086,2,A comprehensive and isightful view of the fast food industry,"If you buy fast food, then you must buy this book. Schlossen informs the reader about the benefits and the falacies of the fast food industry and how it relates to people like you and me. Everytime we buy fast food we are resigning ourselves to poor health and promoting the growth and expansion of poor working conditions. The fast food industry has developed a vital symbiotic relationship with our economy. If people continue to buy fast food, American's health is going to continue to degradate itself. On the other hand if we stop buying fast food are economy could very well collapse. Get the whole story from Eric Schlossen, a well respected writed and journalis. Get this book!"
+5087,2,pretender 3rd season,The product was in excellent shape. I had no problems with the DVDs. I am glad for the fast service in receiving the product and the specific information that came with it if I did have problems.
+5088,2,"Generation D revisits ""A Wrinkle in Time""","I'm having the great pleasure of reading, and being read to, ""A Wrinkle in Time"" with two 10-year old boys. This was one of my favorites as a child and I'd forgotten what a good read it is. Fun and mystery, Sci-fi and fantasy AND an awe filled belief in goodness and God. The boys and I are loving it! The language is just challenging enough to teach new vocabulary and it's a great way to get their imaginations to soar. Madeline L'Engle is as profound as ever and I'm enjoying more of her books, some for the first time. If you're not afraid of the ""God"" word, you're going to love this book. Zach and Alex and I give it 3 thumbs up!"
+5089,2,Awesome!,Used flash micro for my UCLA microbiology course. The only review needed for human pathogens. Excellent!
+5090,2,A modern soundtrack for an old silent film,"In the '90s-00s, Blue Dahlia scored two Buster Keaton movies with modern music (some of it old fashioned, of course). I had the benefit of seeing them perform this track live in a local brew pub to accompany ""Seven Chances."" It was a treat to hear an ""arty"" band take on a more commercial, though still off-beat, task. Whoever is releasing Keaton's movies nowadays should add this soundtrack as an optional audio channel."
+5091,2,She sings like an Angel!,"Sarah Mclachlan is the most talented singer that I have ever seen. She gets into my soul and makes me want to cry. she is truely a talented, gifted, and amazing spirited person. I have all of her albums and this one is called Surfacing is the best. I listen to all of her songs over and over again. She makes me feel like their is someone out there who understands me. My favorite songs are Adia, Witness, Sweet Surrender, Building a mystery,and Do what you have to do. On her other albums fear is the best soul find yourself song that there is and ever was. please check out this amazing deserved album. you deserve it!I fist heard her songs on the cancled yet hit show Roswell. That is the very best show in the world. I wish they would make a boxed set of that(dvd), they would get all of my money for that one. But they have to have all of the seasons.... I want that show. I cried when it went off the air. Well bye, get this album. You won't regret it!- Lecole"
+5092,2,Loved this book,"I had to read this book for my sociology class, and I would not have picked it out to read on my own. I am so glad that my teacher thought we should read this book. It was entertaining, thoughtful, and well written. I think that this book could teach everyone something about life."
+5093,1,Passably interesting but...,"A passably interesting look into life of an ""old school"" agent/manager with some real insights into his client's lives and the behind-the-scenes machinations of Hollywood. WARNING: You'll have to wade through a considerable amount of self-aggrandizment that I found tremendously off-putting toward the end. It's a rare occasion when I don't finish a book but I found myself skipping through the last third and ultimately bailed out with just a few chapters to go."
+5094,2,Keep a Marker Pen Handy,"Both wires are the same color, so keep a marker pen handy to mark the ends. My gold plated pins came with precision flat-head screws to fasten the wire. One thing I did not notice right away is that these speaker wires are DOUBLE INSULATED. I initially attached the pins and was perplexed as to why my speakers were not receiving a signal. After taking a closer look, I then noticed that there is a very thin second layer of insulation. That was quickly remedied. I am a big fan of gold-plated line connectors. That is why I chose these speaker wires. They work fine for my application."
+5095,1,long long long...,"This movie is full of clichés: all white people are racists or are being robbed; the gangster pretends to respect a samurai way of life but he's just killing, robbing, and kissing pigeons. There is nothing constructive in his movie, nor there is a real samurai philosophy."
+5096,1,Wasted Talent,"No longer a teeny-bopper, I've listened to Pop & Dance music all my life. I'm not afraid to say I like boybands. This includes BSB. Their 1st album was great, but 'MILLENNIUM' was VERY disappointing. With the exception of 2 hit ballads (IWITW & SMTMOBL), the rest of the album is a big snore. They can do much better than this. I suggest they get some new ppl to work with, because their up-tempo songs are beginning to all sound the same. Maybe they can even take hints from 'N SYNC, whose new CD 'NO STRINGS ATTACHED' shows true INNOVATION & EXPERIMENTATION. BSB better change their sound or they will be left in the dust! The wave of the future is up-tempo, R&B, or electronic sounds. That's what the 'MILLENNIUM' should be all about."
+5097,1,Perhaps the most horrible movie I've ever seen,"This movie is truly awful - so awful you can't turn it off because you are amazed at how terrible it is. Not one single likable character in the entire movie. Maybe MST-3000 will have some fun with it someday, if they ever sink that low. Oh yeah - parts of this movie were filmed at my college. My claim to fame. (ha!)"
+5098,2,Pretty Cool! Buy if you like rpg action adventure games!,"This is a pretty good game for GBA. I have played FFT for Playstation. I guess its a little better. At first when I got this game, I was thinking, ""I wonder, is this game like FFT?"". And I figured out later, NOPE!!If you want differences, continue reading!! Lets see, theres aggraviting laws that you have to follow(or you go to JAIL!!!!), you dont get abilities by gaining JP, you get them by certain armory and weapons, theres missions, clan wars, new races, some new jobs, you can lose units less often, and more I think. Im still on my way to beating the game, but along the Its been a pretty good game. There are better games probably, but if none of them are available, BUY IT!!!!!!! ITS GOOD!!!"
+5099,2,very pleased,"movies were a great price, received very soon after ordering, and were in excellent new shape. I am very pleased with this seller."
+5100,2,Good Costume,"My son loves to dress up. he wears this costume a lot. he had it for 2 months, and still looks good."
+5101,2,PROFOUNDLY INSPIRATIONAL,"Simple, easy to understand and well-written. This is a book I keep going back to over and over for inspiration and guidance. Pamela D. Blair, Author The Next Fifty Years: A Guide for Women at Mid-Life And Beyond"
+5102,2,Very cute!,"Unique little gift, very cute clown. My niece really liked it, she's about to turn 2 yrs old and she found this very cute and laughed alot."
+5103,2,"Beautifully filmed, Interesting","This is definitely a beautiful, well-filmed movie. The story stays a bit of a mystery throughout. Ms. Rampling is quite good. When I looked at her career and the movies in her filmography, I was surprised to see that such a fine actress really hasn't been in that many good movies. Not a young woman anymore, Ms Rampling is still very alluring. This film has a few erotic moments, but not to the degree that some reviewers are stating. If you like a thought-provoking type of character study and a beautiful loking film this could be a good one for you."
+5104,2,A movie reminiscent of Silence of the Lambs,"Terence Stamp is awesome in this movie. He's so handsome you can't help but wish you were the woman whom he's collected. It's a little dated--made in the 60's, but if you're a Terence Stamp fan, you'll love it."
+5105,2,A shirt pocket must for birders in East Africa.,"This book is authoritative, small, inexpensive, and beautifully illustrated with photos taken by the author. Dave Richards is a superb photographer, and he has chosen those photos which best depict salient features of the birds. Not infrequently, he has more than one picture per species (females, flight, etc.), and he covers 265 species that you are likely to see. Each species description includes color photo(s), a distribution map, and a thumbnail sketch which is not a 'canned' presentation and is a delight to read."
+5106,2,PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN ON STRANGER TIDES,I LOVE PIRATE MOVIES I HAVE ALL OF MOVIESTHE PRICE WAS GREAT AND I ALWAYS PAY MY MOVIES FROM AMAZON
+5107,1,Too Big,"This item was way too big and not as described, I needed something to keep in my inner console to hold all my cds and this cd holder was way too big to do that. I returned it and purchased another cd holder."
+5108,2,Must see rock film,"Not one for hyperbole, and hard to please, quite frankly. I feel like I've seen it all. But Beyond the Lighted Stage truly is one of the best rock films (the best?) AND documentaries I've ever seen. I've now watched it twice and I liked it BETTER the second time!We live in a mixed up, tortuous world. But a beautiful world too - where good people can get together to do great things. And - do it their way. What a great story. Neil Peart's Dad's comments about the day he joined Rush - man, if that doesn't get you fired up and warm your heart, nothing will."
+5109,2,One jumper is not in it,"It is as described, but for my 20+4 it does not have the power-ok connector, not a problem for me, but buyer beware. My system has had no issues and has been running for a few weeks so it is probably not an issue, but check your gear before you buy."
+5110,1,Bad Design,This is a nice size dispenser. The only problem is the fill hole is to large and to close to the pour spout. If you are not super careful you end up with alot of oil on top of your engine. Pour spot is to short and to stiff also. I bought both the 6 and the 8 guart and both have the same problem.
+5111,1,Don't last long,"I have owned two sets of these headphones. The first one started shorting out. If I put pressure on the wire coming out, they would work. Eventually even this didn't work and they quit for good. I got another set because they were pretty much the only ones available at the store, and because I thought it might have been an isolated incident. Well, as of today, the second set is going out in the very same way. The left ear doesn't wok unless you apply pressure to the wire. I will never buy another set of Logitech headphones. Both lasted approximately 6 months. Now I am in search of a good set of gaming phones."
+5112,1,Bleh...,"Probably the only difference from the average review here is that mine gives an extra star. I've not read Nightfall but I have read a couple of Asimov's Foundation books (Prelude to Foundation twice). I wanted to see if there were any movies out there of his work. Nightfall was the only one I found so far, so I wanted to check it out...Well, aside from cute Jennifer Burns and finding a few Space-y shots intriguing (for my 2nd star), I'm convinced it doesn't do the book justice---or rather it ruins it. Right away I thought, 'Serious? Low-budget, crappy, acting?, weak, 2000?...etc.' I thought part of it was made in 1970's. Really unfortunate I say. I wonder if they actually collaborated with the man for input or simply went from the book and applied their subpar film skills for such a work.I hope better Asimov films rise from truly talented filmmakers. I'm hoping for Prelude to Foundation 'cuz it's my favorite. And the actress shouldn't just be cute (sorry Jen), but cute AND a great actor."
+5113,1,look for a better product,I purchased this for my three daughters hoping that one of them would be able to handle it. It never worked from the start. We set it up and turned it on. It made a lot of noise and the pads didn't pick up there steps. The quality is just not there.
+5114,1,A Venice Root Canal,"The author's more famous ""Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil"" is a great accomplishment, on the knife's edge between extraordinary and over-the-top. ""Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil"" stops a hair's breadth from being over-the-top---which is precisely what makes it brilliant.The ""City of Falling Angels is well ""over-the-top"", meaning pretentious, excessive, non-credible, and offensive---except possibly for readers with a sick interest in the vulgar vulgar rich."
+5115,1,Shark Cordless Sweeper,As advertised in its name this product is a sweeper not a vacuum and a poor one at that. Expect to get 25% of the advertised run time from fully charged batteries. TV advertisements of its sweeping power doesn't come close to its real performance. It is flimsly constructed and not worth the price. Save your money. Buy something another product.
+5116,2,Adequate,"These sheets are functional, but I wish they were not so glossy. It is very nice to be able to organize business cards in a binder format--so much more compatible/allows for more uniform storage."
+5117,2,great for pet hair!!!,"You won't believe the power this inexpensive hand vac packs!! I have not found any vacuum, including my Dyson, that works as well. The only down side is it is really loud.I am going to purchase another for my upstairs--I love it!"
+5118,2,The Glory of Baroque,"I'm a longtime lover of the music of the Baroque, and for me there is but one god and his name is Bach. Nonetheless, Mr Biber, whose birth predates Bach by 40 years,and is relativly unknown, deserves a prominent place in the pantheon of 17th century composers. The Rosenkrantzsonaten is Biber's best known work, and is a tour-de-force for the violin. This work employs a tuning method known as ""scordatura"" which is an abnormal tuning to achieve a special effect. As a former piano player, I can't imagine playing if the keys were changed to different notes. I certainly admire the violinist that undertakes to master this work, which , by the way, Gunar Letzbor has done. He also has the backing of excellent musicians, and a sonicly first rate recording. Highly recommended."
+5119,2,Great overview of scenic hikes,"This book provides both a high level overview of 23 hikes from around the world, and some planning details such as transportation, dangers, seasons, etc. Highly recommended for people interested in hikes that are both scenic and challenging. The book is a little weighted toward north american hikes."
+5120,2,Learning Curve for Access 2007,"Ordered this for a co-worker and found her grumbling when she tried to use it. Aparently there is a significant learning curve when going from the last version (office xp) to this one. She DID say, however, that she sees advantages and will stick with it."
+5121,1,Poorly writen with little detail,I thought this book was writen poorly. I felt that Elie Wiesel did not give us enough information on the Holocaust. I also thought that the plot was not well thought of. I do not recommend this book to read
+5122,2,Two years old and going strong,"I needed a pair of speakers to go with my laptop (iBook G4) and I didn't want the hassle of an extra AC adapter, and these speakers fit the bill. Some of my friends have cute portable speakers that are very small, but the sound suffers accordingly (especially when they obliviously push them far beyond their capabilities). These may be larger than some portable speaker sets, but they sound great and the carrying case is super handy. My major beef with these speakers, though is the cabinet design. Certain resonant low-end frequencies cause the speakers to buzz and walk across my desk. It's annoying on two levels.Somewhat related: There's something funky with Mac's DVD Player app: Loud sounds in movies will cause the sound level to drop drastically and then gradually come back to the set level. I thought using the USB output might mitigate the problem, but this is the case whether I'm using the speaker output or the USB port. FWIW."
+5123,2,Excellent!!,"Well Skinless are back and boy does this cd crush. They have went for a much cleaner sound and in doing so have sacrificed some of their brutality. This is not to say that the cd is not heavy. By God it's extremely heavy. Songs like the title track and 'Escalate Discord' will have you throwing your furniture around the house. The opening track has Sherwood doing some Fear Factory vocals at one point. It's very subtle and effective. My only gripes is the snare gets lost in some of the blast and the cd cover. Oh my word the cover is probably one of the worst in Death Metal history. It looks like a 3rd grader constructed it. It is laughable and really quite atrocious. The guy w/the metal wings looks like Mr. Burns, from the Simpsons. With such a killer album name they could have done alot better. Other then that get the cd and blast it to annoy your pesky neighbors!!"
+5124,1,Too small and unstable,I just bought this potty for my 34 month old son. He does not like it one bit. As soon as he tried to sit down on the potty it moved under him. He is unable to sit down on it by himself. It is very unstable for larger kids.
+5125,1,I'm not a Child,I would not have purchased this had I known that it contained mostly games for kids. Since I don't have any kids it is relatively usrless to me.
+5126,2,does the job,"cleaning out my wish list and realized this is the magnifier I bought at a local craft store last week for about $12. Very glad I did not pay $40. Using it for beading and other small jewelry work. I'm 44 and just started having the near vision issue, so this helps, it's portable, no light source, but most of the time don't need it. The base is heavy enough that it stays put pretty well, but you do have to balance the magnifer and arm over it so it doesn't topple. Still reasonable flexibility. All metal and glass, which I like, but I think the current price here is too high."
+5127,1,Big let down,"Although I like my Senseo machine and the different blends of coffee pods I have tried so far, the cappuccino is a HUGE DISAPPOINTMENT. It in no way even reminds you of a cappuccino. And for the price, a big let down.You have to do better than that."
+5128,1,Kensington wireless mouse,"This wireless mouse is horrible. It stopped working after a couple months, probably due to the fact that the reciever couldn't find the signal from the mouse. Have tried using advice from Kensington's support page, but nothing has worked."
+5129,1,slipknot,Theyre ok. But I do admit that they have no talent. I just like listening them when Im bored of good stuff and need some mindless crap.
+5130,2,Amazing quality for the price!,"The Jack Sparrow Ring is of incredibly high quality. It does not look like a toy or cosmetic jewelry. It is sturdily made and the detail is surprising. The green ""gem"" does not look exactly like an emerald, but overall this item is probably one of the best deals for the price that you will find anywhere!"
+5131,1,Masterpiece?,"Is it me, or is there anyone else out there that can't understand what qualifies this movie as a timeless masterpiece. The questioning of God is not deeply moving, but almost comical. The old man's rigidness is reminiscent of Ebineezer Scrooge, but you don't feel his pain as you do ... say...Henry Fonda(On Golden Pond). I guess you have to really study film to understand. However, if a movie is as great as this is supposed to be shouldn't it transcend all boundaries and be felt by all?"
+5132,2,you have to be in the mood for it. and a little insane.,"i like the locust. but not all the time. sometimes the loud, herky jerky, abrasive, 1000 miles a minute blasts of electronic noise made by justin pearson and co. are just what the doctor ordered. usually if i have an excess of energy i need to release. other days it really rubs me the wrong way. a sidenote: my girlfriend and my brother both hate this music as do alot of other people, so listen to the sound clips before you buy it. but if you know what youre getting into then this is the locust album that you should buy. the other ones are too short to justify how much they cost. except maybe safety second body last. its short but still has some snazzy electronics. proceed at your own risk."
+5133,2,Funky Fresh- Its worth the cash,1 GB Memory Stick for ten bucks in a pretty good deal. I bought it for my lil sister and so far it works great on the PSP. She only needs it to save her game files and maybe upload a couple of mP3 files. With 1 GB thats enough memory. No complaints really. I recommend anyone to buy one.
+5134,1,Super awful,I waited for some sort of climax. It never came. Very disappointed. I normally love Charlize. This movie left a bad taste in my mouth.
+5135,2,Fabulous!,"I am a nursing student and i have bad hearing in one ear, and i can actually hear heart,lungs,bowel sounds with this scope! The color purple is very dark, still pretty though. i would recommend this to anyone! im just so glad it works as well as it does, and it came packaged VERY nicely with no damages."
+5136,2,Better than XP Plus,"If you prefer applications to games and screen savers, I think DME Plus is a good value at [money]when compared to XP Plus. It provides Media Player 9 Party, an alarm clock, dancers and some neat digital photo options. I believe that it attemps to integrate media XP features into standard XP Home OS. That's not such a bad idea. The jury is still out on whether they have done this or not. I am glad that Microsoft tried and have rewarded them with my purchase. ..."
+5137,1,very basic,"It is understandable why this book is free. It indeed is a short history of France from medieval times to late 1800's. Because it is short many finer details are left out and references to people and places leave one slightly confused, if they lack a basis of French history. It is however a decent ""starter"" book if you want to start to read books about any history, and will give you somewhere to start if you are looking to research this topic."
+5138,1,OK But...,Not bad as long as you don't mind the logo (bug)printed on the lower right throughout. I do.
+5139,1,unseen is the word,"I read this book two years ago and had the opportunity to participate in an interview with the author on National Public Radio. Ms. Gibbons was gracious, of course, but she could not answer the obvious difficulties in this book. The chronology is confused, and while the book reaches for important issues, ie the need for a young girl to have a mother, the treatment of the characters is shallow. The longing is there, and it is expressed well, but ultimately, the miraculous ""healing"" of the mother and her immediate death after her restoration--undermine whatever strength was in the novel.The one character that the reader has no trouble believing is Pearl, the caring maternal housekeeper. She is a jewel of characterization, much needed and appreciated in this novel."
+5140,1,"Defective, Panasonic says tough luck.","I have a 27"" Panasonic TV, I'd sooner give up my mother (j/k Mom!) than part with it. But this lead me to buy the DVD-A120 DVD player and after less than a year it started refusing to play DVDs that worked fine before. Do NOT buy this product, it IS defective."
+5141,1,"Me encanta El Chavo, PERO..........","Este DVD es una burla a los consumidores, son varios capitulos revueltos con un tiempo total de media hora, que horror!!!!Preferible seguir disfrutandolo en la tele hasta que televisa haga un producto del cual valga la pena comprar. Que pena........"
+5142,2,A good collection projects for a beginner to intermediate wood worker.,My wife gave me this book as a surprise gift. I generally agree with most of the other reviews concerning the scope and complexity of the projects in this book. There are a lot of projects and not too many are difficult for an advanced beginner. Most of the projects can be completed with only hand tools. Several projects do require a lathe.I really would like to give this book 4.5 stars... :)
+5143,1,Don't WASTE your money!!,"I'm a first time mom and bought this pump after reading others' reviews. I wish they would of told me these facts before I wasted my money. The pump is difficult to assemble and clean. I did not think that it pumped enough milk. Since it is manual, you do have to pump and it does hurt your hand. I bought an electric pump and yes they are loud but at least it pumps milk and no manual labor. I'm not sure of all the great reviews on this pump. Just remember, pumps are not returnable or exchangeable."
+5144,2,great movie with lots of action. loved it,Can't miss out on this great movie that's packed with action on a blu-ray. super good picture quality.
+5145,2,Twilight Zone Great DVD set!,Great DVD collection with very clean footage. On T.V broadcast during New Year's marathon a hiss coul be heard. Considering the quality of recordings from the 60's that is expected. However most of hiss has been removed on the DVD set. Really great job on video with great contrast. Of course the stories and acting are the best!
+5146,1,waste of money,"i bought these b/c my kids have both had febrile seizures and i am paranoid about fevers. so last week my 1 year old was sick and i put these stickers on both kids and each kid registered around 97 degrees for the 2 days straight. i know b/c i was doing rectal temps too that my son's reached over 101 at one point and these things never reflected a fever. not only a waste of money but i thnk these are SCARY b/c had i relied on them i never would have treated the fevers and they might have had more seizures. this product says on side ""hospital grade"" but i find this impossible to believe. i am going to try to get a refund b/c this product was so HORRIBLE."
+5147,1,Inaccurate - resolution of 4 lbs!!!,"What a great scale, I thought, until after a few days I noticed that my weight was either 150.4lbs or 153.6lbs. Please, give me something in between! But no, alas, it can't. I even tried carrying small weights onto the scale with me to, but no joy. Avoid like the plague, especially if you're into weight management."
+5148,2,Awesome movie.,"Can't find this movie anywhere anymore! Can't find it to rent, no stores have it, I'm glad I picked it up online! Great movie!"
+5149,1,Skip this movie - the buzz is wrong,"There is nothing thrilling or suspenseful about Swimming Pool. I kept waiting for something to happen and when it did, it wasn't at all interesting. Granted, the nudity and sex help fill space, but even that can't save this movie from being boring. And I like twist or surprise endings as much as anyone but at least make them good. I waited and watched a hell of a long time for nothing to happen. For a truly suspenseful, thought-provoking and erotic thriller - buy Mulholland Drive."
+5150,1,Cute but quality could improve,"I adored this set. But after washing the set a second time, the corner of the sheet was completely ripped apart. I am afraid to wash any of it again. I read the reviews for the matching toddler set and they all agreed to poor quality. I am going to check with the company to see what they will do about it."
+5151,1,Still Thieving from Tolkien,The entire story of this book was lifted from an appendix to the Lord of the Rings. It is found in the appendix section dealing with the history of the Rohirrim. This McKiernan dude is incapable of writing anything worth reading. If you've finished reading LOTR and you want to read something else similar... just read LOTR again. Seriously.
+5152,2,ON-OFF at twist of handle,"On-Off with twist of bottom of handle holding button for momentary light. This flashlight is built well. Not bright enough to reflect light off of nearby objects, but lights that which is near."
+5153,1,ssn,I want my money back. I don't care if I was stupid enough to read all of it. I still want my money back.
+5154,2,great griddle,"this is a wonderful griddle. it is very easy to clean provided you don't use any kind of scrubbing materials and mess up the coating. it is perfect for cooking bacon, eggs, pancakes, hamburgers, etc. i've done it all. it's great."
+5155,2,not bad - 3 and a half stars,"Well, as much as I dislike Katie Holmes and her squeaky voice, I got this to fill the girlie movie requirement of a rental night marathon. Forest Whitaker does have a touch with female-skewed movies. The movie was rather cute, actually. Although I wish Katie's ribs weren't showing while she was wearing the blue bikini in the beginning - why oh why can't actresses these days have a little meat on them? - she played the role with charm. And there was certainly good chemistry between her and Marc Blucas (who I had no complaints about on viewing him sans sweatshirt). The whole thing had feel of a modern fairy tale - which was obviously intended and not a bad thing. Feel-good, enjoyable escapist fare. And we all need a getaway sometimes."
+5156,1,Musicianship lacking,"I bought this album and was disappointed. Weak musicianship and simpleton lyrics. I would think Shooter Jennings could have assembled a better band than this. Some of the most simple, poorly performed guitar solos I have heard. Maybe the studio albums are better, performed by studio musicians and Jennings gets dozens of takes on vocals. However, I'll pass on anything by Shooter and the 357s. 70's era Waylon and the Waylors blow this band so far away they land on another planet."
+5157,2,loved the bike rack,The rack was easy to setup and is sturdy. I load two bikes behind the motorhome and am totally confident with the way the bikes are secured.
+5158,2,"I'm rather better now... deskwise, at least...","So far, this is the only book that has made a serious dent in my disorganization. My desk at work has been cleaned off and organized for months on end now, since around June 2007.Unfortunately, I still have a strong tendency towards lateness, and my entire apartment is still a wreck, but this amazing desk progress is really something.I learned some cleaning and organizing techniques from Clean Sweep, Julie Morgenstern and David Allen's Getting Things Done, but this book somehow got me to apply what I knew from those other sources. Some of the more extremely hippy dippy stuff is over the top, but some of it hits home. I'll be rereading this book soon, for a second pass at the problem."
+5159,2,"Great taste, perfect for quick hunger pangs!","I use this after a gym workout, at that moment when my energy is waning and I am getting a blood sugar drop, before reaching food!!! It is the perfect taste and consistency. A Clif Bar is too much work and too filling for those times. I can't stand the gels. I have also used this before a workout, for a quick booster. I use it for outside sports, too, including swimming, skiing, runs, etc.I also let my 3-year old daughter have some when she is very hungry and for some reason food is delayed. She loves it and I always have to fight off demands for more! :)I usually get the Cran-Razz flavor. Note - the Black Cherry flavor contains caffeine, in case you are also passing it on to kids! I don't like the Strawberry flavor at all. Another one I recently tried is Mountain Berry.I can find it in some local stores, it's a hit or miss..."
+5160,1,Needs better tailoring,"Although this cover was clearly designed for my BMW 328, it didn't fit right. The left side was shaped wrong and there was a bulge over the instrument cluster that would not flatten out. The price was right but the tailoring was not."
+5161,2,Who needs categorization?,"I read all these reviews from people whining that this isn't real punk rock and this isn't real emo and its too commercial and ""he's just whining like a 7-year old."" Why do you care? If you don't like Dashboard Confessional, that's fine. You're entitled to your opinion. But to dislike music because it doesn't fit into the genre that you think it should fit into? That's just stupid. I like this album for the simple reason that it sounds good to me, and the fact that I can't categorize it makes it pretty cool. Do his songs sound similar? Of course. But they're good songs. A word of advice- if you listen to music without any preconcieved notions of how it should sound, music in general will sound a lot better."
+5162,1,The Most Un-Charismatic Movie Ever Made,"Madison Avenue has done it again! Watching the trailer for ""Contract Killers"" gives you a sense that you're about to experience The Jason Bourne Trilogy in a dress. What you actually get is a long, insipid and illogical movie that tries to attach itself to the action genre and fails miserably. Forget about closing Guantánamo Bay, I suggest making prisoners watch this movie. Not only would you torture them, they'd be begging to tell you everything you wanted to know if you'd just stop the movie. It was definitely not James Bond in high heels.If you really want to see Girl Power at its best watch Bridget Fonda's, ""Point of No Return"" or Geena Davis', ""The Long Kiss Goodnight.""""Contract Killers"" is definitely un-charismatic.Edward BrownCore Edge Image & Charisma Institutewww.core-edge.com"
+5163,2,If you feel this album then just get it!,"Dam! Music I played back in 91 while in 7th grade is like old school rap classics now. I like this albume still today in 2006. Dare I say it but it's a fun album. I mean I know hip-hop now you got to be a ""THUG"" and all. This album just brings back good memories for me back in a time in 7th and 8th grade early 90s. The beats on this album still play to me and aren't out dated. For example, I brought Ice Cubs' 'The Predator' album just for the 'Check Yo Self' track but all the other song beats on that album are mad out dated. I don't know if your a young cat reading this or someone like me around 29, but this LP is just that good stuff! If you weren't around in 91 you might not be feeling me, but tracks for example; Feminat Fatt, Sobb Story, Show Me a Hero, were just my songs along with many more on this LP. I don't know, I just feel those good beats and the creativty on this album, still today!"
+5164,2,Great movie,Another great movie with Richard E. Grant. Highly recommended if you like good movies. Some really funny scenes and characters.
+5165,1,KEEP YOUR MONEY!!!!!!!!!,The friction locking pin BROKE the first time I used it..now the cutting blade will not lock in place...A useless piece of junk.
+5166,2,Had Homelite Chainsaw for 5 years Now,"I have had a 16"" Ranger for over 5 years and am pleased with the performance. We had a destructive winter storm here in NY and I needed to cut up trees and tree limbs that had fallen. I put a new chain on as the old one was dull (and I didn't want to spend the time sharpening. The chainsaw worked fine, strong and easy starting. I agree with the comments about chain oil usage. I bought a less viscous oil at Home Depot than I had been using and found that I was really going through the oil (Echo). This is OK as it protects better. My unit was purchased new and came with sharpening files (never used!), tool and case. This is good for medium duty. I would purchase again."
+5167,2,Great Price,Product arrived on time and as describes. The great Price made it more than worth it. yes yes yes yes
+5168,2,Retro gaming at its best.,"This is a wonderful collection of games from the creative heyday of the video game industry. These are bit-perfect ports of the original games; the Playstation is emulating the 1980-era hardware and the original game code is running on the emulator. All the original gameplay is there, including the bugs! Because some of the games, Tempest and Asteroid in particular, had touchy hardware, owning these games on CD is better than owning the coin-ops for most folks. If you grew up with these games, you will enjoy the blast of nostalgia you'll get from playing them again. Today's games have better graphics, but they are not better games!In this collection: Asteroids, Battlezone, Centipede, Missile Command, Super Breakout, Tempest.Also included are short video interviews with the creators of Tempest, Battlezone and Centipede."
+5169,1,2 stars but read it anyway,"This was the first science fiction I ever read: many, many books ago! It is probably only interesting to the fan of Philip K. Dick. Having said that, it really is fun, in its own way. All the Dickian issues are there: What is the nature of reality; do we really know what is going on; the man caught in the middle of realities in flux; the wife/girlfriend as super unsupporting person, etc. If you want to read all of PKD's stuff, find this and read it. Otherwise, it is only marginally interesting."
+5170,1,Read before you buy!,"I thought I was purchasing this as a second charger for the Nintendo DS. This is not the case. The unit does not include its own plug, and requires the use of the AC adapter charger cord that came with the game. Also, if you have any kind of acrylic case or skin on your game, it has to be removed in order to fit into the dock. Item is overall a disappointment."
+5171,1,Not reliable in my experience,"I saw all of the positive reviews of this Sony shower radio/cd player and thought it important to share my experience. I bought one two years ago and although the quality seemed to be high (solid construction, good waterproofing design) it broke pretty quickly. Within around ten months the cd player stopped working, and then eventually so did the radio. It was disappointing because I thought spending the money on a Sony ensured a reliable product. Maybe it's because it's a shower radio and was exposed to a lot of steam, but it seemed like a lot of money for a stereo that lasted 10 months, and is supposed to be designed to withstand a bit of water. I expected more and would not buy one again.It was great while it worked though."
+5172,2,"Great album, definetly Kanye's best so far...","Very nice album. It isn't like College Dropout, which is a future classic, sort of like Jay-Z's Reasonable Doubt. Kanye has a different swagger on this album, and the production is great. The whole album is like an experiment, but it worked out better than Late Registration, his sophomore album. All the tracks were amazing, probably except Barry Bonds, featuring Lil Wayne. Drunk and Hot Girls is also not as great, but I'm growing on it and the sample is getting to me.Hot album, definetly worth buying."
+5173,2,Underrated blues/rock band compels musicianship to new level,"Much in the spirit of Zeppelin, the Badlands take their smart rock and outline a detailed map of musicianship that easily makes todays Limp Bizkit compost creations, a musty meddle of distasteful whiner garbage. When it's said that this CD is hard to find, there is a duel meaning. Finding a copy to own for yourself may be quite a challenge, but more importantly, a CD of this calibur is hard to find in a world where it's cool to regurgitate already virulent ideas. This CD is more than enough to make the group's cover of James Taylor's ""Fire and Rain"" a rock n' roll classic."
+5174,1,noisy...,"This is not a good recording. Too much noise andthe voice sounds muffled. The discs are CD-Rs,not Audio CDs.Looks like it was made in a garage byindifferent migrant workers.Promptly returned.Very poor quality product,not recommended."
+5175,1,TERRIBLE,"Just like everyone else experienced, these are not magnetic at all. Better off using anything else to cover your vent!"
+5176,1,Terrible Movie!!,"I never like to write bad reviews because I have always thought that negative criticism is best kept to oneself, but this movie was so incredibly bad that I can't help but write a short and to the point review on the lameness of it all. The movie was NOT in any way scary....it wasn't even SLASHER scary-which is the kind of scary that has you jumping out of your seat or biting at your nails... This movie, along with Jason Goes to Hell, have totally flushed this series down the toilet. Don't rent this movie unless you want to watch pure, unmistakable trash. By the way, who casted this movie? The acting was so bad...I could have grabbed random people off the streets and given them scripts and they could have done a better job than the actors in this movie! The only decent performance was from the girl who played Roan. She wasn't bad. This movie is just bad. Don't waste your time on it."
+5177,1,Interesting ... as a work of fiction.,"Anyone that has seriously studied these matters will recognize this book for what it is - an attempt to substitute sensational fiction for fact. It's disappointing when the desire for publication completely overrides any semblance of scholarship.It doesn't really matter who you are, but especially if you're new to the subject, do yourself a favor and don't waste your time on this one. Begin with something more authoritative and closer to the truth, like the New Testament in the Bible."
+5178,2,I love this movie,Johnny Depp is amazing in this movie. It always makes me laugh and cry no matter how many times i have seen it. The sister ya she is a lil off but Sam fell for her and her brother Benny is skeptical and overly protective of his sister. Its a great story and makes a great addition to any house hold collection.
+5179,1,Repetitious,"Unless you have had your head buried in the sand for the last 5 years this will not be new. If you want a re statement of ""values"" questions raised in the popular media, don't look for clarity here. Did anyone edit this book, organize it or eliminate redundancy? Speeches seem to have been written down in a stream of consciousness manner and piled in a book that rambles from election 2004 going backward to the turn of the millennium. For clarity begin by reading his 50 predictions for the new millennium located at the very end of the book because the rest was very disappointing."
+5180,1,"Waste of money, effort and time","I bought this machine because a site that reviews bread makers rated this as the best of the inexpensive bread makers. If this is the best, I shudder to think what is the worst. Every loaf has rock-hard crust and fallen top, except the one that rose to the point it lifted the lid before baking even started, and burned. This machine is worse than worthless. Spent the money on the Zojirushi, and it was WELL worth it. Once I made a few adjustments for altitude, failures are rare."
+5181,1,not what i saw from picture,"This item ran small for an x-large.. so it did'nt fit at all.. also there was no buckle on the lower back, which was supposed to accent a waist line like it showed on the picture.. so... not sure! All I really can say that don't believe mostley everything you see on the pictures that they provide...Although... I did get my refund back pretty quick and purchased another.. which was Rocawear and was 2x this time and did'nt show a picture of back area which when my jacket arrived found rocawear lettering on the back shoulder length area which i did not like... did extra work to undo the stiching.. and finally I am able to wear.. {suggestion to amazon}..may be show pictures of all sides of products so the cunsumer sees what he/she is really purchasing.. then probably will be 100% satisfied with product... afterall... these products are not cheap!!! Thnx with kind regards, {1/2 satisfied}"
+5182,1,"Used to be Good, Now it's just like flipping through a catalog","This magazine used to be good, but now it's like flipping through a catalog. Even with the cheap subscription, I did not renew."
+5183,1,Disappointing - Anne Tyler Seems to Have Lost Her Joy,"I was most disappointed with this new book from Anne Tyler. And I would agree with some of the other reviewers who think she's lost her special gift. Her characters have lost their endearing quirky edge and their sense of humor. (Who can ever forget the man who washed his dress shirts at the end of his day by stomping around on them while taking a shower? Or the family that always put the groceries away in exact alphabetical order. I could go on an on.) In her last few books, however,her characters have pretty much fallen flat. I fear that this change to more serious, humorless stories is a relection of her own life. It seems that since her husband died, her stories have suffered. I hope she will rediscover her old witty, truly joyful view of life and bring us back some of her mesmerizing quirky characters. I await her next book with great hope."
+5184,1,Further from objective reality,"Stargate SG-1 the next generation...I read somewhere that those people who create psychotic fantasy worldsget further and further from the here and now asthey get more involved in the psychosis.True science fiction is about making predictions about the futurethat may prevent technology from overpowering humanity.Star Trek the nth generation and SG-1 by moving into religionand other galaxies and further from actual hard science have become 'fantasy' like dungeons and dragons with science that ismore in the realm of 'magic' than reality.It was a pretty adventure, but we feel they are never really indanger as 'good' always prevails in this sort of 'B'sci fi series."
+5185,2,Great pillow - no more stiff neck,"I also discovered this pillow in a hotel, and was so excited to find a pillow that didn't store the heat from my head. You get the sense that air circulates inside this pillow. As another review said, it's perfect great to plump up and punch into a shape you like, but I also agree with the other reviewer who said that your head drops into a hole by the morning. I was told my a local vendor that there are (or were) different variations of this pillow...with a ""super-stuffed"" version that keeps this from happening. I made 2 pillows out of 3 of these to solve the problem...I now take some with me when I go on road trips. The language about the material used in the filling is pretty elaborate for what appears to be shredded plastic dry-cleaning bags. But I love this pillow. I no longer wake with a stiff neck, and that is worth a lot of $$. Gave two to my elderly mother and she absolutely loves them."
+5186,2,Hooked on the past!,"I love Ms. Auel's books. I have read them and reread them several times. However, it has been 9 years since ""Plains of Passage"" was written. When are the next books being release? Are they being released? I certainly hope so. What happened to Jondalar and Ayla now that they are ""home."" Please tell me...now......!"
+5187,2,"Please, please, please get this to save your marriage","My husband and I just finished the DVD series and we can't say enough about it. I truly wish that every married couple watched this as part of pre-marital counseling. At whatever point a couple is in their marriage, whether newly married, or married for 50 years (or anything in between) they would highly benefit from listening to Dr. Eggerich. He is funny and it often felt like he had been peeking in our window because he is so on target with how men and women respond to each other."
+5188,1,Not a 100%satisfied,"I received the product and followed the instructions to the last detail. I used a black light to locate the urine stains,treated them with the product, put plastic over the saturated carpet for 12 hours to allow the product to absorb and activate, allowed the carpet to dry and retreated it. The smell initially worsened which I read online is normal, it is an indication that the product should be working, well it has been 4 weeks since I have completed the treatment and the smell is still lingering."
+5189,1,A waste of time and money,"This warmer is terrible. It is very inconsistent, sometimes over heating and sometimes under heating, despite the fact that we measure out the water each time. It also needs to be cleaned every day to prevent rust from collecting on the surface of the hot plate, thus warming our baby's milk in brown water. Needless to say we've resorted back to the old fashioned method for now. I implore you not to purchase this product unless you enjoy delaying feeding and standing at the sink, or sitting waiting for hot milk to cool, with a crying baby in your arms."
+5190,1,Horrible instructions,"This is a very solid, seemingly well-built keyboard tray. My problem is that the instructions that came with it were horrible. I was able to attach it to our desk without a problem (as other reviewers suggest, nice template, etc.). That's not the problem. Unless I am missing something, we CANNOT move the tray down or tilt it as it is supposed to. There is a lever that seems like it should go up and down and back and forth but it doesn't move, and I'm afraid I'm going to break it. There are no instructions detailing this. There seems to be a diagram on the arm, but it is underneath the rolling mechanism and I can't read it without moving it down, so I'm stuck. Called customer service and they referred me to Waterloo (the manufacturer). I got voicemail there. Hoping for a call back, but I'm not super optimistic."
+5191,2,One of the best books ever written!!,This book has the perfect plot and fun for every student who wants to learn Spanish. This will make your class sit on edge of their chair because it's that good.
+5192,2,My goring valentine................,"I can't believe it's finally going to be uncut. Being a horror fan I feel special. After all these years of cut vhs, and dvd release. This slasher had quite of bit of gore scenes cut out. The only thing I could say is this.Get it for your sweetheart on valentine's day."
+5193,1,Mediocre at best,"This is a sequel to horror movie that wasn't even all that good (or all that scary). This is a movie with possibly the worst ending a horror movie could have. This is a movie with no suspennse, no surprises at the end. This is a movie that's main characters are so uniteresting that you find yourself hoping they'll get axed. The most interesting character in the whole film is the bartender at the hotel played by Jennifer Esposito. Of course Esposito gets little time in the film, being only a minor character. This was not the worst movie I've seen, but it is definitely near the bottom of the pile."
+5194,1,Where's the music?,"This DVD does not remember Elvis, it remembes trains.For a beginner, this is lousy, because if you are unfamiliar to Elvis, you should start with a little MUSIC (what a consept!), of which this tape lacks completely. This is even worse than the Beatles' Celebration, which is also unofficial and musicless. My point: DON'T waste your money on this ...! Get the new boxed set, or even the Alternate Aloha."
+5195,2,great pressure easy to use,Bought this to replace a manual one.took pressure with this and old one was approx the same.the upside is the ease to use. the cuff seem to fit just about every size and is easy to place and use.
+5196,2,Replacement for OE on 2005 Toyota Solara,"These bulbs are noticeably better than those originally in the vehicle. The life span remains to be seen; hopefully longer than the tech rep indicated (1 year). Installation was easy.Additional information (1/7/2011): in the fall of 2010, the left bulb failed, yielding roughly two and one-half years of superior lighting. Regular bulbs seem to last far longer. Note that I don't drive much in the dark. Not sure that I would buy these again."
+5197,2,King Kong!,What can I say? These are great classic films!King Kong is still as great today as it was in 1932.The wrestling scene between Kong and the Alisaurus is fantastic!Still as good as today's stuff!
+5198,2,Dear Zoo,My Daughter loves this book. She started reading it at twelve months and still enjoys the book ten months later. It is simple. The flaps open in different directions.
+5199,2,Required for Owners,"If you own a Mills slot machine you need this book. Detailed information on machine breakdown, lubrication and cleaning, theory of operation. It has gotten me past many otherwise hard to solve problems."
+5200,2,powerful and complex,I loved th?s book. Spencer wr?tes beaut?ful clean sentences w?th just the r?ght amount of ?magery.

+5201,1,Gift That Quit Giving,"My husband got this for me last Christmas and about 6 weeks ago, it started becoming intermittent -- stopping randomly and without reason. The CD I use in it is a sleep aid and that is ALL that plays in this item. The CD plays in three other players and on my lap top but now it no longer plays at all on this player. So I got 9 months on the player....not my idea of a well built product.Sony D-FJ041 CD Walkman Portable CD Player with AM/FM TunerUpsetting and disappointing"
+5202,1,A bit weak,"I liked the story told in this book. About a female laird (a woman warrior) who forced a Scottish knight into marriage to stop the war between their 2 clans.I disliked that the knight in some parts of the story has been described as an idot, who doesn't have any pride our own will. To me he was not the character of a real Scottish Highlander.The woman on the other hand appeared sometimes very strong and brave and then again very weak."
+5203,2,Powerful pump,"I bought this to empty the pool cover and it works great. It has a lot of power. Not pretty, but easy to handle and clean up."
+5204,2,Enough,"Working class waitress Slim finds her life transformed when she marries wealthy contractor Mitch. She settles into an idyllic suburban life and seems to have everything she wants: loving husband, beautiful home, and Gracie, an adorable 5-year-old daughter. Her dream is shattered when she discovers her husband is anything but perfect. His abusive behavior forces her to go on the run, eluding an increasingly obsessive Mitch and his lethal henchmen. When, despite Slim's efforts to make a new life, Mitch finds her and threatens her again, she puts Gracie in safe keeping, toughens herself mentally and physically and sets out to prove to Mitch she's had enough. The intense chemistry between the leading actors, really makes this movie work. The message in this movie, is that everyone has a limit."
+5205,1,I bought this for a laugh...,"This is just hilarious. Mary-Kate and Ashley releasing their Greatest Hits 3 album- what could be funnier?! I don't really know whether to give this one star for musical ability, or 5 stars for comedy. I guess I'll just go with one star...If you want to laugh, but this album."
+5206,1,I was excited,"I was very excited about this product when I placed my order, thinking that it would help my workouts be more effective. I purchased it new thinking that I would have better luck than if I purchased a used watch. However when it arrived there were no instructions included with the watch. I would imagine that it could be difficult enough to program with instructions. However without instructions programming was virtually impossible. I must return the item."
+5207,1,horse sh*t,Why did they put Kurt Kobain and Kirk Hammet ahead of Eddie Van Halen and Carlos Santana in the top 100 guitarist article? this proves that these retards don't know music.
+5208,2,Victimology 101,"WOW!!! I love this book. It has enlighten me as the studying victims of crimes and the roles they they have. The book arrived on time just as stated in the estimated time of arrival so I am very pleased with that, also. Thank you, Amazon."
+5209,1,Are You Kidding Me?!?!?! {Dr.Phil Voice},"We used this book for our ""Bridge to Abstract Mathematics"" class. This book falls short of what you would consider a book to be called a TEXTbook. A comprehensive study guide with this book would probably make all the difference. The exercises at the end of each section were so far fetched, that I resorted to the Teacher's Solution Manual to see how the first couple of problems were done. It's great that the book shows some basic proofs throughout the individual sections, but it does not show applications of the theorems and such like the end of the section problems.If this is your ""text"" for your class, I would highly suggest going to the library and serch for introductory TEXT(s) on set theory and proofing to gt a good grade."
+5210,2,"Love, Love, Love this CD!","It's been a long time coming but it was well worth the wait. This is a fabulous CD that really showcases Chaka's wonderful talent. It is rare to find a CD in which every song is good, but that is the case here. Chaka Khan fans old and new will truly enjoy this gem."
+5211,1,Get the metal one instead of the plastic one,"I got the metal version of this mug at the same time as the plastic one, and the metal one is way better. When I pour my tea water into the plastic container, I can hear it creaking, which doesn't bode well. Despite not filling it past the fill line, when I screw the lid on (keeping the spout open as instructed) it spits hot water out of the crease. Next the plastic becomes too hot to hold until it cools down, at which point the tea is no longer as warm as I would like it. I find it just too dangerous to use with hot liquids. I still give it two stars because I find it to be safe and spill proof but only when I am using it with cold drinks. For my hot drinks, I choose the metal one."
+5212,1,Bad,"Maybe I did it wrong (although I followed the directions) but the stuff behaved just like boot polish would have. It was a bit greasy and it hardened to my mustache. What is more, it is not a natural shade of black so it looks very foolish when it is stuck in your beard and mustache. I would recommend trying a different product."
+5213,2,#1 Fan,"Baker makes me laugh and think and wish I could write as he does. He's the only author I've ever written a fan letter to. I've read everything he has written, and what I find most remarkable, beyond his masterful command of language, is his unabashed love of women. Baker is one of the few modern writers who loves and likes women. So even though he never responded to my fan letter, I will continue to buy everything he writes (in hardback) and lend his books to anyone I can get to borrow them. By the way, his U and I is the best homage to John Updike ever written."
+5214,2,Incredible!,"This volume is of incredible value from both an historical perspective and from a study of lycanthropy world-view as well. Comprehensive. I would highly recommend it to anyone delving into this fascinating behavioral syndrome and the history attached to it. Originally published in 1912 (I believe), you will find it heavy to read now and then but the insights gained are worth the effort. Not a ""neo-werewolf"" volume! Don't bother if you think Oz on Buffy the Vampire Slayer defines werewolves."
+5215,2,Jumpin Jack Flash,I loved the movie! But...I dont really want to own it. LoL! I do love it and recommend it though. :)
+5216,2,A Painful Hit,"For most adults The Crocodile & The Dentist is likely to appear excruciatingly repetitive. This impression is not alleviated after 60 or 70 readings. In other words, it is a delight for 2 and 3 year olds, probably because of its repetitiveness. Youngsters will know by heart the story of the crocodile and dentist's mutual fear of one another long before they weary of hearing it read aloud."
+5217,2,A Masterpiece,"This album is the greatest achievement of Diana Ross' career. Miss Ross sings in a way that she has ever in her career. From the opening track, ""No One Get's the Prize,"" to the title track and especially, ""Once In the Morning,"" every vocal is a thrilling surprise. The vocals on every track show that Ross can sing the way she's always demonstrated during her live performances, but seldom on records. This record is one of Ashford and Simpson's best production, along with Gladys Knight & the Pips', ""About Love."" If you are a new Ross fan, this is the record the have, in all it's remastered glory. Simply, a Masterpiece!"

+5219,2,"Cheap, easy, and it works","I have to say I was a little hesitant about buying this antenna, but when I received it, I hooked it up, and it worked instantly. Crisp HDTV channels for free! The only bummer is I have to place it differently to get some channels, but its well worth it."
+5220,1,If you love Trainspotting..,"Welsh displays a lot of weaknesses in this book. The plot is extremely contrived, the sex gets boring after a while, and while reading Nikki's parts, it feels like a guy writing from a girl's perspective rather than just the natural flow of the book. Interesting that in Trainpotting he had brilliant parts from the perspective of the young girl Nina and the Waitress and the soup. This time he tries to incorporate a major female character and while not a disaster, it doesn't work too well.Still, if you like Trainspotting, there's no reason not to read Porno. Characters like Spud, Begbie and Mark are irresistible. Almost all the characters from the first book come up again, and things have changed a lot. Leith, Dianne & Mark, Second Prize, Mark's sister-in-law, etc.Speaking of, you must read Trainspotting before this. There are so many subtle connections you will miss."
+5221,1,Not really made for a TV set,"This is one of those motion pictures where producers seemed to strive for authenticity by having dialogue in foreign languages with sub-titles on the screen. That may have worked OK for large motion picture theatre screens, or for people with huge screen plasma TVs. I was trying to watch this on a normal TV set, and the subtitles came out too small to read from across the room. It was like trying to watch something where people were speaking in tongues. I had trouble getting into the story, or understanding where it was going, so I turned it off to watch something more interesting.So, it might be OK if you have a huge screen plasma TV to go with the sub-titles, and want something intellectual. If you are like me, and you are looking for something to watch on a normal TV set, I would suggest saving your money."
+5222,2,Highly Under Rated,"I won't cover the story line or characters as that has already been done, and done quite well. I will say this series is highly under rated because many people who dislike the ""battle of the week contest"" type of anime got turned off by the other Zoids series. Zoids Chaotic Century, and it's second season, Zoids Guardian Force, are NOT like the other Zoids series. Do not hold the other series against it.The story is interesting and runs through the entire series, even though there are stand alone episodes. The characters are fascinating and well rounded, and the story is told with humour as well as with drama. The CGI sequences meld in with the anime almost seamlessly, unlike some other series I have seen which use both. The series ends with a nice resolution to the many story lines, even though I REALLY didn't want it to end.True, this series won't float everyones boat, but I for one have been waiting for almost a year for it to come out on DVD."
+5223,2,A Penetrating Portrait,"A very deep study of Mao's every move for decades, with each questionable decision and hidden agenda explained in great detail, using documents from around the world as evidence...but as dry as that sounds, it's actually quite a page-turner. I started reading this at the same time as a Gao Xingjian novel and found this book even more compelling than the fiction.After reading this compendium of selfish atrocities, it is very hard to see people my age (college- to post-college) wearing this man's image as little more than a fashion statement. Were this required reading, the man would be as reviled as Hitler.But along those lines, my only criticism is that this book is so virulently anti-Mao that it clearly delves into pure opinion periodically, and the personal tone of it makes me suspect its objectivity a lot. Surely SOMETHING that Mao did over the course of his ENTIRE lifetime had pure intent?"
+5224,2,orange glo hardwood cleaner and polish,I had new prefinished hardwood floors installed 10 years ago. I use orange glo hardwood floor cleaner and polish and love the results. You cannot use it on dirty floors. You cannot use it weekly. It will build up. It is great if you use as it states in the directions. It states to remove loose dirt before using and only once a month.
+5225,1,quickly broke down,"I agree with the other reviewers who write that this thing leaks and is a bit dangerous. Ours started leaking gradually, but now at only 4 months of use it leaks so much that it's unusable. The steam burns were also not my favorite part of my morning. We'll be getting another egg cooker, but it won't be by Cuisinart."
+5226,2,For Dog Lovers,"I bought this for a relative who loves dogs and who believes that certain dogs have come into her life because their relationship was ""meant to be."" She loved it."
+5227,2,An unexpected gem,"One of my very favorite books, read in a single night at Christmas. It's that sort of book - small enough to read all at once, but broken into little vignettes one could treasure night after night. Each vignette, loosely bound together with a wraparound plot featuring Albert Einstein, depicts a different reality from our own, where time functions differently. In one, time runs backward; in another, time is a literal location you can walk toward or away from. Another reality holds people without long-term memory, and everyone's past is written down in books. How similar or alien these worlds are to our own lie mostly in the mind of the reader...and that's half the beauty of it. The prose is simple and tight, but the ideas are absolutely breathtaking. If you want a nice quiet read on a summer's day, or a near-Christmas night, I couldn't recommend this enough."
+5228,2,The Bage of Honor Series is set in the 70's,It seems that many people have difficulty with these books because they miss the fact that the series is set in the early to mid 70's. Read the earlier ones it becomes clear.
+5229,2,great book on cd,I am really enjoying this book on CD. I like that it is unabridged. I want to hear the whole book. It is great!
+5230,2,Avril prevails...again.,"No matter how much all of the OH SO PUNXERZ kids complain about how much Avril Lavigne has ruined music, I will always love and listen to it. Once again, Avril has shown me why I listened to Let Go 10 times a day. Under My Skin will never stop playing at my house, and I believe it will outsell Let Go...not that sales really matter, I just personally think it's a better record than Let Go. She's matured so much. Thanks very much Avril, awesome stuff."
+5231,2,"excellent product, cheap rate quick serive n shippment",Amazon shipped this product to me in 3 days. the product is good and is giving the result it is supposed to give.
+5232,2,Scandinavian folk-rock at it best,"Haunting lyric driven by an almost Medieval beat that brakes into something more modern. It is a good balance, and comparison to world music from North Africa, Tuareg rock specifically."
+5233,1,disappointed,"I bought this because I loved this book when I grew up, however it was very disappointing. The illustrations are crude and I found the story to be to simple. I wish I had found the version I read when I grew up."
+5234,1,Luciano Pavarotti - Nessun dorma (Arias & Duets),"While the music selections were excellent & enjoyable to listen to, I was disappointed in the overall quality of the sound of the CD..it just didn't have the richness of sound I am used to in classical music recordings."
+5235,1,Caveat emptor,Assembly is an absolute joke and the product despite the 100+ pieces and terrible directions is not worth the cost. If it had been assembled it still would have been a disappointment. Granted I am not a carpenter I guess if I was I would have made it myself in the first place and saved 70 dollars and a lot of time. If you buy it and find assembly a breeze please respond and I will retract this and come to the realization that I do indeed have a very limited ability to do even simple tasks.
+5236,1,A Shadow Should Not Talk,"I was really excited to get this for my son who loves Don Freeman books. However, this book is about how a shadow is looking for its owner. Shadows don't talk. Bad concept for a book!"
+5237,1,Drivel,What a disappointment! The first few chapters of this book are essentially meaningless fill and drivel. I will avoid this author in the future. Why not just one word per page? Then you can sell more paper!
+5238,1,"If Price was ""Free,"" You STILL LOSE!","Looks good and all down hill from there. Played it six times, yes six, and then the questions repeated themselves. A genuine, first class, ripoff. Save your $$$$."
+5239,2,Read This Book!,"There are very few books I've read lately that I literally have not been able to put down. This is one of them! Gripping from the very beginning, this story is riveting and thought provoking. It really makes one wonder what they would do if placed in the same position. I also must admit, I was teary at the very end. Please read this book. You will be glad you did. Note - I am deliberately saying nothing about the plot, I don't want to give ANYTHING away!!"
+5240,2,A quiet page-turner which took my mind off my sore throat !,"I thought Patterson's earlier books like ""Kiss the Girls"" was one of the best thrillers I had ever read. I read them all PD James, Cornwall, Connelly and others. I found this book to be different, interesting and just enough fantasy to be intriquing. Sometimes you need a twist on the genre to suprise the reader. I recommend the book without hesitation."
+5241,1,Do not buy this CD,The Tchaikovsky is admirably performed by Honda Clark but the recording engineers really [messed] up in making this CD. The Dvorak begins half way through the first movement. The introduction and exposition of this movement are completely cut off. These are both two of the greatest violin concertos. Buy a copy of each but not this one.
+5242,2,...draca morthre swealte...,"Well-turned piece, Mr. Heaney--a purist might disagree, but this smooth and musical approach intuits what seems to me the spirit of the work as the more literal translations I've enjoyed don't quite. Makes what must've been a soul-eating, back-breaking labor of years seem a simple joy poured out over a long weekend...."
+5243,1,Mildly entertaining,"We like MXC, Banzuke and Ninja Warrior -- if you like those, don't get this. It was shot in the mid '90s and more silly (and I don't mean fun-silly) than anything else."
+5244,2,Beautiful Music,"These people ""bother"" because some people, such as myself, truly like this music. It is a great CD!"
+5245,1,bad,"I got the Speakers in, or if that what you want to call them. The box was torn all up, they were about 8 days late of when they said it would be here. One of the speakers was BROKE, it had a hole in the sub part. Dont but anything from this seller."
+5246,2,isitu,"I have been using these disc to transfer, self recorded VHS video's to DVD. As long as one formats the disc first it plays on all DVD players. I can record 3 to 4 movies on each disc, depending on the length of the movie. Good choice, good price."
+5247,2,great tool for picking up trash,great tool for picking up trash when out mowing the yard.However it fell of my lap and under the mower wheel. Once the aluminum tubing is bent is no longer useable.Will shop around for something else either cheaper in price or more durable.
+5248,2,Must Read!,"I read the book in one day and was amazed at how much information was in there. The author does not mandate strict ways to become financially independent, rather he offers up some basic financial knowledge, gives you a road map and then lets you decide. An extensive recommended reading list provides a springboard to move forward. If this were required reading for high-school seniors, we would have a lot more wealthy people, regardless of what their income is."
+5249,1,Bleek needs to stop!,"Rocafella has truly fell off. I've never really been a Bleek fan but this has to be Bleek's worst album. I did not think he can do worse than MADE but it looks like I was wrong! NEwayz if I were you i wouldn't even take my time to listen to the album if it weren't for one song ""Dear Summer"" and Bleeks not even on it just Hov."
+5250,1,Not worth the paper it was printed on,"This ""book"" is full of the same old garbage that EVERY health organisation in the world has, in the past decade, proven wrong. Any book that would seriously quote a sit-com isnt worth a dime. I love Seinfeld and took the foreskin comments for what they were: jokes. This should be filed under fiction. If the foreskin was so hazardous to a mans health why has mankind thrived for the past 2 million years without circumcision? Because the foreskin is not deadly which is why I left my son intact. He has had no problems of any kind at all. Reading books like this only makes me feel better about leaving my son intact because this book marks a new low for the pro-circumcision camp and shows just how desperate they've become in the lack of medical evidence.Very sincerly from a circumcised dad who's just a bit envious of his intact son."
+5251,2,Favorite Anime ever,"Enjoyed the plot, slowly unravels over the full first season. Characters, heroes and villains alike, are very memorable and the hero (or anti-hero) Hei / The Black Reaper is my current favorite.Highly recommend watching the full series (including second season) two to three times - each run through provides new insight and value."
+5252,1,Awful.,"I guess I must be wildly out of tune with others who have reviewed this book. I found it to be unreadable, and I was unable to finish it. I tried three times, but no dice. I usually won't review books that I haven't finished, but I am making an exception here because this is the second Haldeman book in a row that was this bad. I wasted my money. Don't waste yours.Maybe the emperor has no clothes, or maybe I can't appreciate Haldeman these days. But I found this novel to be quite literally unreadable, and completely implausible and unconvincing."
+5253,2,Good source!!,"This set has been very useful in gaining new insights on the text of the New Testament. The biggest & only complaint i have regarding this is that it doesn't cover the entire New Testament. I would still recommend it, though."
+5254,2,"Short, But Sweet","My friend and I have completed all the Nancy Drew games together. Here's what we thought of Creature of Kapu Cave: Loved the Hawaiian scenery (especially on a cold, gray Oregon winter day), the characters are well developed, and the most fun was to switch between Nancy and the Hardy Boys point of view. The puzzles were not hard and were very similar to ones in past games. It didn't take very long to complete the game, but all in all it was a pleasurable experience. However, if HerInteractive does not come up with some really different approaches in the future, I think we will get bored and not order any more Nancy Drew games."
+5255,1,POC,This is trash. None of that crap worked with none of the Apple products I have. Really bad. Don't waist your money.
+5256,1,Lasted a day,Got it for my kids for Christmas. Litterally lasted a day. Should have just gotted a stearing wheel for my Xbox. The graphics on this are old school.
+5257,1,Disappointing Book!,"This is probably the worst textbook I have read in my life. Each chapter basically consists of numerous solved problems. There is almost no explanation of the basics of probability theory and how one should go about solving these problems. Needless to say, I had to concurrently read two other textbooks to understand the material. This is more of a book of problems than an introductory textbook."
+5258,2,A keeper!,This is a must buy! This is a keeper. It is a necessary reference for all Christian libraries. I refer to it often.
+5259,2,"An excellent read; crisp, informative and enjoyable.","""A Hard Chance"" was a great read. It put me there, aboard the boats that took a terrific pounding in Bass Strait during the Sydney to Hobart ocean race. If you enjoyed Sebasatian Junger's ""The Perfect Storm,"" you'll love Kim Leighton's ""A Hard Chance."""
+5260,1,I love Koestler. Don't start here.,"The Call-Girls is a novel evidently intended as a ""popularization"" -- since people like to read novels! -- of ideas that Koestler covered more exhaustively in his book-length essays, in particular The Ghost in the Machine and Janus: A Summing Up. The fictional structure is really little more than a skeletal frame into which Koestler has dumped (sometimes verbatim) arguments that he formulated elsewhere: A dozen ""quirky"" professor-types (one giggles, one blushes, one's outspoken and gay, one does ten things at once, etc.) -- the jetsetting symposia-attending call-girls of the title -- come together in Switzerland to discuss how mankind is to be saved from itself. So that's what they do. As story, this is less than gripping; and either of the abovementioned nonfiction titles will serve as a better introduction to Koestler's ideas, which ARE gripping."
+5261,2,Great album from an all too overlooked performer.,"I'm new to Chris after seeing him live, solo. He is absolutely captivating live. There's not quite as much magic in the studio recordings but they are still great. The title track is especially nice because he's added very little to it save for some backing vocals which sound more at home with each successive listening. ""Origin of Species"" is one of my all time favorite lyrics. Bottom line is Chris is a wonderful songwriter and a great performer. If you ever get the opportunity to see him live, don't miss it."
+5262,2,Outstanding legal mystery with compelling narrator,"I whuffled this up in two or three reading jags. You get all the right elements: a good whodunit, a conflicted narrator (in a believable if wooze-making downward alcoholic spiral), excellent pacing, good minor characters, and a consistent, clear voice that pulls you through to the end.I am very, very picky about this genre--I almost never read it--and only did so because it's a local author. I am on Amazon to buy the next book in his series. I only hope that the story is just as good without agonized, tippling Ted Stevens at its core."
+5263,1,Politically Correct Jesus for the Oprah Crowd,"Those interested in biblical history will find nothing new here. If you want an inspirational historical account on this subject, read John Romer's ""Testament"" which was also a PBS series. Mr. Cahill seems to have enough points about the Christian/Judaism relationship and the early church to fill a magazine article. His conclusions are almost shocking in their reliance on predictable politically correct catch phrases that swiftly deteriorate into his personal opinions. The book is crushed under a huge modern bias. All the cool sins (adultery) will be forgiven while others (making money) will not be. To borrow a catch phrase,this book is one calorie ""Christian-lite"". Although only 320 pages, many pages are nothing but passages printed from the bible that make the book appear longer than it really is. Mr. Cahill will make millions on this book, and we will certainly be seeing him on the Oprah show."
+5264,2,Meeting the challenges of the New Economy.,"Robert Allen discusses the challenges of the ""new economy"" and provides sound principles toward achieving financial security. Having been a ""Nothing Down"" student, I've again been blessed by a master financial planner. Get this book, you won't be sorry."
+5265,1,not well made,bought several. two fell apart as I pulled them out of the wall outlets. these are jus not well constructed; doesn't seem like it should be a major production challenge to make something like this well; they are charging enough to expect a well made product. . . .
+5266,2,can't fail,"After a brief run of not bad, but not astounding books, the Assassin's Apprentice blew me away. Hobb's ability to create such a multi-deminsional world seems almost effortless, and this skill extends to depth of character, as well. I feel such craftsmanship could have entranced me into reading about the chores of the dullest pot-scrubber boy. Centering her book around a prince's bastard turned assassin just cinches it. I'm hooked on Hobb."
+5267,2,Translator of the Spirit,"I've been listening to TTD since he's graced us with his first gift of ""The Hardline.."". I am in awe of his beautiful, uncompromising talents and his willingnes to share it with all, still after all these years of being passed over in the industry. How amazing to be this talented and adored by many and still not given the msuical respect his beauty commands. Every cut on this album is completely soulstirring, and makes you take a look at yourself and life. He's made it tough for ordinary men to come romanitc, because his poetry ssems to have been told to him directly from above! Ahhhh, pure beauty this is, looking forward to the next..........buy it now--but beware---you may never look at your other music the same. Peace and Love."
+5268,2,John Schneider's Greatest Hits,"I heard him sing ""I've been around enough to know."" That was the first time I'd heard him sing. Fell in love with it. Was sorry to read that he may not make any more albums."
+5269,2,Great Value For Money - WONDERFUL Product,"The description (or lack thereof) of this item was a little vague, but I decided to take a chance on buying this 'bulk' pack from Amazon. I have heard so many wonderful reviews about the product, that I wanted to try it.Received the package today, and it actually comes in 3 inner packages. Each package has a plastic container (vanity) pre-filled with 14 pillows, and an extra refill pack. Each inner-package therefore has 28 pillows or a months supply of cleansers.I've priced these online and they aberage about [money] for the vanity refill. You are getting three of the refills/vanity packs, and I think its a great deal.I havent used them yet, but will report back on their effectiveness"
+5270,1,I gave up,"I had the feeling there must be some suplimentary material I was missing while trying to read this book. Alot of ideas that had no explanation. Basically I gave up trying make use of this book.It has some of the usual stuff included in books on this subject, like instrument ranges. For me, there were just too many ideas without a clue as to HOW to do it. You might as well say ""try to make good sounding songs"" ""try to keep your melodies interesting"" ""use discipline, and good judgment in your arrangment"". If you are a fan of this style of advice and teaching, then you will love this book."
+5271,2,Just Like Being There,"Interesting collection of profiles that read unremarkably like Terry Gross' interviews sound: light and playful, meant for entertainment more than insight. Makes a good bedside or travel companion. The Uta Hagen and Gene Simmons interviews I found most entertaining and revealing. Would recommend to anyone I would have to face afterwards."
+5272,2,Great Movie,I would definitely recommend this movie. I watched it recently because I remember it was popular when it first came out. I decided to see what the hype was about and I enjoyed the movie from beginning to end.
+5273,1,Find examples elsewhere.,I've managed to get through the first six chapters in two weeks. Although the writing style is readable for a technical book there is a glaring lack of examples other than dangling code snippets that show how to actually use Spring. The code I downloaded from the book's web site is largely incoherent and undocumented.I did manage to find several online tutorials that have been a lot more help. I recommend finding one that you like before attempting to wade past the first four chapters.
+5274,1,Had it for a few years and just tossed it in th dumpster and glad to be done with this POS finally,Will not do anything if the ink is low until you buy more ink. Drops the wireless signal often and the software is a resource hog on the computer. Run away from this junk.
+5275,1,Dense but not a good reference,I ordered this book several years ago based partly on the recommendations here. I'm not sure where they went. I have tried to use this book as a reference mainly for Word and Excel and found it not helpful. I know the basics but sometimes I need a little help. There's lots of dense but selective details in the book. However try looking up basic but little used tasks such as strike through and it's not there.
+5276,1,Too small for swaddling,"My biggest complaint about these blankets it that with rounded corners, they are too small for swaddling, which is what we primarily needed them for. By comparison, the Wamsutta blankets, which are supposed to be the same dimensions, are much more suitable for swaddling."
+5277,2,The Middle East-up close,"This is a series of 3 short films about life in Israel and the territories. One touches on a complex marriage between a Bedouin and a German woman, another on an affair between an Israeli and Palestinian, another on a freak accidnt on an Israeli highway. Great stuff, my HS students loved them."
+5278,1,very poor packing; bulb arrived crushed,"This replacement sewing bulb was packed by Amazon with two books and no packaging materials (such as airpacks) to protect the bulb. as a result, the bulb arrived crushed. I attempted to obtain a replacement and Amazon informed me that only a refund was available. So, I have to return the bulb for a refund -- and go through the truoble of return shipping -- without being able to get the bulb that my wife needs for her machine without incurring new shipping costs. Crazy...."
+5279,1,Terrible Mystery,"I listened to the 10-disc book on tape rather than reading the book. I only finished it because once my wife and I got to the 2nd-3rd disc and realized how bad it is, we felt we had come far enough and should finish it.I can honestly say this is one of the worse mystery stories I have ever heard. My wife reads a ton of mystery/detective novels and agrees.Slow, boring, and the author keeps reitereating the psychic aspect of the characters and totally beats it into the ground. Do not read this book. It is absolutely ridiculous."
+5280,2,I FLEW FOR THE FUHRER,"just a beautiful true not hyped up story of a fighter pilots everyday life with clean well writen storys.How wounderful and full of energy knoke was in the early 40,s to the total destruction of his fighter wing in 45."
+5281,1,PAINFULLY AWFUL (I second that),"I have been wanting to check out this film since it came out on video so this evening I stopped at the local video store and rented it. What a mistake that was! I got through about 30 minutes of this over-the-top super moronic, extremely stupid, very unfunny piece of crap film before I decided that I had suffered enough. This has got to be one of the worst comedies EVER. This definitely ain't no Dumb and Dumber.Ditto to the reviewer who said that this film was painfully awful because that it is.Don't buy it, rent it or watch it. You will be wasting your time and money like we did!Grade= F"
+5282,2,Amazing!,"I was introduced to Jean Luc Ponty's music with the albumOpen Mind.I love the trancy, moving, eretheral sound that seemto transport you to another place and time.My favorite cutsare Infinite pusuit and Elephants in love.All of the albumis simply amazing.His futuristic sound and style was wayahead of his time!"
+5283,2,Fun Read,This was a very enjoyable read. Fast-paced and descriptive. I feel like I got a very good sense of Cook's explorations and his psychology.
+5284,1,"Okay Looking, Bad Spendy Keyboard","Let me start by saying I have two Eclipse I keyboards *office and home) and have put them through their paces. They keys feel as solid and tight as they did the dirst day. The lighting has held up well.I was super excited about the II coming out. Better media keys, color choices, a dimmer knob...Only thing is if you want a keyboard you don't have to type on the Eclipse II is the one to get. The keys are mushy and cheap feeling. The glossy black platic is a finger print magnate (which given fingers are all over it...). The media keys are cheaper feeling. The dimmer knob on mine was loose and felt very cheap. The backlighting itself... the red and purple were acceptable, but the blue was too dark and too dim to be of use. Given my rig has blue lighting, this was a sticking point.I would look at the first Eclispse or the Logitch well before goign witht he Eclipse II. It is not worth it for looks or performace."
+5285,2,Amazing!,"Even with subtitles, this movie is a masterpiece! Filled with wonderful wisdom, immense battle scenes, and a knowledge of heart with war. Not to mention the soundtrack is out of this world! Definately reccommend to everyone."
+5286,2,Good for pasta,"This set is good for pasta and more. Haven't used the large bowl yet, but the four smaller ones are good for anything with liquid or as a serving dish. Perfect size."
+5287,2,"""I got up and opened the door of my hut, and there she was, framed in the doorway like a painting . . . ""","I read Whiteman and couldn't put it down. I'm not much of a reader of fiction but this novel opened my eyes to Western Africa like nothing I've read before. Tony D'Souza is a rising star and this, his first novel, is a book that will live with you for weeks after. I was fortunate enough to hear Tony read portions of the book at the college where I work. My students sat for 45 minutes quiet and enthralled. I wish my words had that kind of magic. One faculty member,in fact, has decided on adopting it as one of her required readings for next semester.You will enjoy it and it will move you."
+5288,1,ouch!,"Well, I have had this cd for a year now. I thought I would give it time to grow on me, but it never did. Queensryche has really lost it. In the first song ""Falling Down"" one of the lines states: ""I can't even think of a word that rhymes"" I don't know what happened to the deep and thoughtful lyrics of the past, but they are obviously gone. Save yourself and your money!"
+5289,2,Excellent Excellent and most Excellent,"Upon dropping in to review all books that were/are important to me, I noticed that ""Nine Stories"" only has 4 and 1/2 stars. Hmmmmmmmm. totally illogical. This collection is genius and flawed perfection. Of course my favorite story is ""Perfect Day for Bananafish"" because of the total bullets of details...and I adore ""Uncle Wiggley in Connecticut""(I read Uncle Wiggley books as a child)... and I always quote ""how that name mixes memory and desire"" from ""To Esme With Love and Squalor"". I shouldn't even be tooo effusive or even care if people read this book. It is a rare and beautiful work, and I wouldn't want to see it on Oprah's must reads. If you, gentle reader, are at all interested in life and loss of intangibles, you you may read."
+5290,1,Poor quality plastic,"Though it worked for me for sometime, the plastic broke on its own. Made from very poor quality plastic.Not worth the high price for the product."
+5291,1,A huge disappointment & rotten customer service!,"I bought this scooter for my son's birthday. I saw what other reviews said about the battery, but figured that Razor would have corrected the problem by now. No such luck! After charging the battery as instructed, we ran the scooter until the battery died (about 3 minutes!), and then charged it again for about 12 hours. It has still not worked more than 3 minutes at a time. I contacted Razor, and a bored customer service rep told me to fax a copy of the receipt & they would send a new battery. I did so, & 10 days later I am still waiting. They have not responded at all! Even though the scooter is great fun (for 3 minutes), don't waste your time & money!"
+5292,1,A disappointment - both writing and from a technical viewpoint,"I had extreme technical issues with the book - skipping pages, going to the end of the book when trying to get to the next page, and freezing. All of this hassle I would have forgiven if it had been well written. While the premise was interesting, I found the characters to be flat, one-dimensional. It was impossible to warm up to the two main characters - Kit in particular seems to be a spoiled, self-centred brat. About 25% through the book, when it crashed again, I gave up. It just wasn't worth the trouble to read further about someone I couldn't admire or care for."
+5293,1,Before you order - KNOW THIS.....,"I have had a bad experience with getting the rods for this item, I invite you to learn from my experience.Read the full story below in the forum under ""Customer Discussions"" - entitled 'Before you order - KNOW THIS'."
+5294,1,Proud American,"This book is silly! I decided to read this only to see, as Jim Rohn says how horrible a person can become. My wife and I are proud Americans who happen to be black. Amazingly, my wife graduated #1 with a 4.0/4.0 scale from a school that was 98% white. She has a Math degree from an Ivy League University! I have a college degree and finished with honors. Now, based on Dukes ""Theories,"" this shouldn't be! The minority class in this country is too big and powerful for any movement of this kind to be successful. WAKE UP AND STOP DREAMING."
+5295,2,Priceless Vincent Price,"Vincent Price portrays Nicholas Medina, a man tormented and haunted not only by his beloved wife's recent death but also because his father Sebastian operated a torture chamber and murdered Nicholas' mother. His brother-in-law Francis Barnard (John Kerr) comes to the forboding Medina castle to investigate his sister Elizabeth's death only to experience mysterious ""happenings"", which seem to suggest that Elizabeth might be alive after all. Vincent Price hams it up wonderfully, and the incredibly spooky atmosphere makes things pretty creepy as well. Hang in there during the first slow half, the second half makes it all worthwhile and Mr. Price swings a mean pendulum."
+5296,1,I can't believe I read the whole thing!,"I can't believe I read the whole thing! The main character, Sam, is some sort of megalomaniac who is abusive to his co-dependent girlfriend, who for the life of me, I can't imagine why she continues to support the guy.I think this book does a disservice to the 60's--sure, naive in a lot of ways, but highly idealistic. Where are the ideas in this novel? And also does a disservice to the shamanistic cultures--these were serious spiritual journeys that eventually brought enlightenment back to the whole tribe. For that matter, Christ and Buddha shared what they learned. Sam is in it for his own glory--or destruction--and brings everyone around him down. This guy was crying for INTERVENTION. Didn't they do those back then? Didn't they do them in Alaska?"
+5297,2,Never buy Pam again!,This works great... pump it ten times and sprays just like Pam does. You will never have to buy Pam again
+5298,2,"BEST ALBUM OF THE YEAR, HANDS DOWN","Let me be the very first to announce right here on amazon.com that i have just heard the best album of the year, without a doubt. Paul Ruderman's ""Wish"" is ridiculous. I am still digesting the enormity of THIS MUSICAL JOURNEY. WOW is almost all i have to say. Talk about Lyrics. Talk about greatness unknown. If this album doesn't maKE it, i have NO idea which album would!"
+5299,2,Best Flight Sim played,"This is one of the best Flight Sims. It has pretty good graphics except sometimes you see the graphics getting worse the farther you look. I say this is worth the$. It has great aircraft without loading any on but when you try to load third-party aircraft sometimes it makes no sense. I would have done a 5 except for the graphics, how hard it is to load aircraft and this may just be for me but when I'm takink off my plane drifst just enough to make taking off hard th the left. Those are basically my only complaints. I suggest you wait untill November though (this was written in 2006) for the seqquel, it will be called Fight Simulator X. I read it in issue 39 of PC pilot. It looks way improved."
+5300,1,Voit CB5 Flat,I purchased 4 of the Voit CB5 balls for our church basketball league. The size of the ball is perfect for ages 4 - 6. 2 of the 4 ball will not hold air. I pump the balls up before each practice and game. The church purchased 4 balls 3 years back and they have been good balls. Very disappointed in the 2 balls that do not hold air.

+5302,2,Pigmaei gigantum humeris impositi plusquam ipsi gigantes vident,"In the words of Sir Isaac Newton, Stephenson's Snow Crash materialized as a result of Stephenson standing on the shoulder's of giants e.g. Gibson/ NeuromancerNeuromancer. Snow Crash is the best Cyberpunk novel ever written...after Neuromancer."
+5303,1,Where Did Our Ross Go?,"When I buy a Diana Ross CD, I expect to hear Diana Ross. Not Diana Ross & the Supremes or The Supremes after Diana Ross after leaving the Supremes. Especially since only Diana's photo is on the cover.Track 1-19 is Diana Ross & The Supremes Track 37-42 is the Supremes after Diana Ross left the Supremes. So really only Track 20-36 is Diana Ross, 17 songs. Now really Universal Records someone there is not doing their homework.You should hire me, I know I could do a better job with the entire Motown Catalog. In fact I have suggested songs that you have included recently. Case in point ""To Love Again"" ""Never Say I Don't Love You"" ""You Were The One"" and others."
+5304,2,The kids loved it,"Although it is written in a more no-nonsense, simplistic,and factual style than many other books on the topic, my kids (ages 6-12) were enthralled. They talked about it constantly for many days after."
+5305,1,Not to be trusted,"I ordered this belt with few expectations, except that it would be reasonably close to the size stated. It wasn't. I gave them a few stars for effort and within a few weeks received an email asking that I remove the less than stellar review and they would refund my money. I removed the review, but never received the refund. Ergo - not to be trusted."
+5306,2,Wonderful,There has never been a Barbara Taylor Bradford book that I haven't loved. I wish all of her old books were now available on the Kindle.
+5307,1,interim report,"The Tasco Specialty 200x Tel-Toy is somewhere between a toy and a telescope. ""Surprisingly lightweight,"" my enthusiastic 5-year-old granddaughter said, carrying it to her room. In fact, the tripod is too light; it's unstable. Lack of written instructions for assembly was a major disappointment, given the many parts, interchangeable lenses, etc. I'm still hopeful that trial and error will prove that this toy can function enough like a telescope to satisfy an avidly curious child. Further comments to follow."
+5308,1,Where is the table of contents?,"What is the point of offering ""Jules Verne: Five Complete Novels"" if you are not going to list the titles of the novels? Jules Verne is a tremendous writer, but why should a buyer have to ""guess"" what 5 titles are included here?"
+5309,1,Don't bother,"Ughh! I was so frustrated with the main character of March in this book that it made it hard to enjoy anything else about it. She was whiny and selfish and abandons all those who truly care about her. It was impossible to have any patience or sympathy for such weak character. You wanted to tell her to grow up and start putting her daughter's needs before her own. Instead, she puts her daughter's life at risk by moving her in with a sociopath. The daughter, Gwen, was very interesting and you felt so sorry for her for having such a terrible mother. I also enjoyed her ""love interest"", her cousin that lives with Hollis, as well as her relationship with the horse. For me, these were the only redeemable parts of the book."
+5310,1,DESERVES ZERO STARS!!,"If this book were a good thriller, one might be able to overlookthe horrible message it sends. Unfortunately, it fails miserablyon ALL levels. Hard to believe this is the same author whowrote Jurassic Park and The Andromeda Strain!! He is nowofficially a HACK!"
+5311,1,BURNS YOUR FINGERS! HARD TO WORK WITH CLIPS,"I liked the look of this set (horizontal styling) and that the clip was on top of each roller.They don't call it ""DUAL HEATING TECHNOLOGY"" for nothing. Each time I grabbed a hot roller it not only burns your hair, it burned my hands!I bought this setter because it appeared to have the type of clips I'm looking for. I found the clips hard to HOLD OPEN while my almost burned hand was trying to hold the roller in place for it.My current set up is my old clairol flocked set which uses metal clips. I have since purchased a bag of the plastic clasps that work great, but wanted ones that actually ""go"" with the setter. So far I haven't found good clasps with a new setter. Seems simple enough.Someone told me to try babybliss (sp)?I've been using hot rollers for 25 years without ever getting burnt if that helps."
+5312,1,Relentless Enemies,I've actually had Netflix send me this twice and neither disc would play on my Toshiba HD DVD player. I thought it might be just screwed up rental disks but obviously there is a manufacturing problem with a large number of these if the number of reviewers who say they don't play is representative of the larger user base.
+5313,1,I love Nirvana and bought this CD,I don't think you should by this cd. It is not as good as Krist could have done. You will by it and never listen to it. The only reason to by this CD is to get the Nirvana Collection.
+5314,2,Great Nailer,"I bought one of these when they first came out about five years ago, and it's still going strong. I do a fair amount of trim work; doors, casing, base, crown, cabinets, etc, and this nailer is perfect for smaller jobs when you don't want to drag your air tools to the site. It has plenty of power and can easily drive a 2 1/2 inch nail into maple or oak or other hard woods. I highly recommend this tool."
+5315,2,"Interesting, but technical","If you're obsessed, as many (at least new, as I was,) Beatles fans are, you may want to read every page of this usually highly technical book. Unlike most books, it does get into _every_ song. It's just that a lot of the discussion is pretty advanced music theory and terminology."
+5316,2,Awsome,"This product is awsome. I really like the way that it just fits perfectly in those tight spots under the sink and next to the fridge. It really makes my kitchen floor sparkle and is really easy to use. The only negative aspect is that other machines seem to give off more steam than this one does so you think that it is not working as well, but it really is! I would recommend to all."
+5317,2,awsome sport drink,"hands down the best sport drink out there. has no sugar and is actually has a good amount of potasium.tastes good, not overpowering or anything like gatoraide. just adds a mild lemon lime flavor to your water."
+5318,1,"12"" 2 color neon clock","This clock may look nice....but it is cheap, junk. Thisis made overseas in the Asian market where the labor rateis about $1.75 per day. This is novelty crap, and a wasteof money. I suggest you buy American Made product...something that can be kept for long term, and repaired if necessary.I bought one of these clocks and it lasted for 3 weeks...andnote.... Only the adapter has a UL rating not the actualpower transformer / board."
+5319,2,outstanding and thrilling story of espionage and the enigma,"This book was given to my husband to read, and I picked it up and could not put it down. I would highly reccommend this book to anyone. Its a fascinating story of one man's influence in developing espionage during World War II - a network that ultimately prevented Hitler from developing the atomic bomb. It details how spies were trained and deployed and the incredible bravery and sacrifice of spies who parachuted into occupied Europe- even women. One of the most fascinating accounts in the book is the detailed story of the rescue (right under the noses of the Nazis) and transport to England by ""moon plane"" of a Norweignan physiscist who held the key to the development of the bomb. I am buying this as a gift for several friends and my father."
+5320,1,could not read it,the map was unreadable........... I could not locate any street or transit station.......I could not find fisherman's wharf orheight ashbury
+5321,1,handle trouble,"This looked great and I bought it based on other amazon reviews about Tfal vs others available on amazon at this pricepoint, but I returned this item as the handle was loose and would not tighten. Of course, this problem may be limited to the one I received, but I decided not to ask for a replacement as I thought this could be a problem in time for any pan constructed this way (the handle screwed to the pan, but the screws had limited ability to tighten.) As always, it was easy to return to amazon; however, I did lose my ""free shipping"" discount on another item I bought with the pan."
+5322,1,Disappointed with assembling,I registered for this item b/c I thought it would be very convenient. Now I am rating the assembling of this item. It is very difficult to assemble. Even my husband walked away from it. I tried and have not tried again. I would like to take it back and get something else but I am not sure if the store will take it back. I am sure it would come in handy once it is put together. Any suggestions from those who was able to get it together?
+5323,1,predictable,"This is my number one most overrated movie of all time. We saw it at a pretensious artsy theater, along with an assortment of ex-hippies and wooly haired intellectuals. They all cheered, of course, when the young girl beats the boys at finding the prize in the water, then becomes the chief. The truth is that every single scene is utterly predictable, given the politically correct theme. The truth is that old people are not bad just because they love their culture. The truth is that tradition is not inherently evil. The truth is that girls are no better or worse than boys. Basically, if you hate men, this is the flick for you. But it is not good. It is not creative. There are no surprises. There is just nothing there. As I edit this, it's no surprise to find so few people liked this review. There are still plenty of hippies and politically correct so-and-so's out there."
+5324,1,Devoid of thought,"This band is disgusting. All of these songs are written with the pure intention of getting radioplay. It's not a album.... just a collection of singles. I could interchange songs of this band with others like Matchbox20, Tonic, and Our Lady Peace, and not tell the difference. The state of rock music is on it's way down when people buy albums like this. Do yourself a favour... if you want a real rock album, go buy Edges Of Twilight, or even more so, Transmission (inspired by Joy Division) by a band called the Tea Party. Anything but these lame ""band of the moment"" like 3rd Eye Blind."
+5325,1,rodneyb,"man,this is ia bad(spelled B*A*D!!!)collection.save yourself some money and please don't get this...you've been warned."
+5326,1,I found this book very dissappointing. Bummer.,"Ive read all of his other books up to this one, so i had very high expectations for this one. As i read through it, i kept waiting for the book to really get going, but it never did. I was lost in its complex storyline, and it was almost work to have to finish it. I would reccomend this book, but don't expect it to be as amazing as Clancy's others."
+5327,2,Goood :),Am pleased with how quick we received and happy with overall purchase made it just in time for the birthday gift it was intended :) Have been looking all over for this CD in stores and finally found it here--couldn't believe it!!!!!!!!!
+5328,2,Great Price for diet aid!,Phenominal price! I will never buy this product from my local store again! About to order another bottle from Amazon.com
+5329,1,Ugh!,"I picked this one up at a tag sale over Father's Day weekend and was told it was not a good representation of sasquatch subject matter. The seller was right, I wasted $. My recommendation is to pass this one up."
+5330,1,not Ringo quality,"I was disapointed. Ringo is so much better than this. I'm going to mark it off to a bad year. That's okay. I still think Ringo's a great writer.I agree with one of the other reeviewers that ""Ringo can't get out of his own way.""I would have enjoyed it more if I had a poorer understanding of physics, quantum physics, probability, and he hadn't called out the mech warriors."
+5331,1,Software incompatable?,"Rumours are that it doesn't work with XP SP2, but maybe with XP SP1. Not with Vista, also. Research this problem if you are considering buying it. It works with LINUX, people say. It gets good reviews for earlier versions of Windows. CS doesn't respond to email or online posts about this problem."
+5332,2,Touchy Movie,"This film not only touches the heart, but your hand holding a tissue as well! Plot driven and well written throughout every minute. Eye candy for its audiences. Top notch acting from the entire cast, including the child actor. Starts off light and fluffy that keeps you laughing 3/4 of the movie and ends with a bang! Hence the title ""Sad Movie"" and you will see why. Not your typical Hollywood or soap opera melodrama cr**. This movie is not boring at all. Even when I watched it with my guy friends. Trust me and watch this picture with your family and friends."
+5333,2,Helped to treat my gastritis,"Without this product, I would likely be experiencing quite a bit of discomfort. For about two weeks, I would break open 2-4 of these capsules into hot water and drink them before meals or anything potentially irritating to my stomach. It did what Pepcid/Omeprazole/Antacids haven't. If you have stomach issues, then get this."
+5334,1,Can't Manage to think about it...,"The Last Unicorn is a TERRIBLE movie, for one the DVD release was very poor, and some aspects of the film weren't made for children...or ANYONE, for that matter. There isn't really a point to this film, so DO NOT BUY IT!"

+5338,1,Could have done without the leaf it came with,"Let me start off by saying I love HALO sleep sacks have used them for a year now with my son. I have nothing against this actual product but more so with how it arrived.I find it difficult to believe that this product was new. The plastic wrapping was broken in places with tape keeping it closed. The sleep sack itself had a leaf, yes a leaf, on it within the packing. For the price of this item I expect that I am getting a brand new item not one that has already been opened. I don't feel the hassle of returning it and ordering another would really be worthwhile so I threw the item in the wash and will use it once it's dry.So in a nutshell, like the product wish I received one that hadn't previously been opened previously."
+5339,2,GET it and see.,If u dont get a good amount of greens & or probotics in your diet this product is for u.
+5340,1,Disappointed,...The dreams are based on different views of how time might vary from one place to another and the implications of such variations. Some are within the bounds of my imagination but many seem to me to be quite far fetched and unhelpful in understanding the effects of such variations and it seems unlikely that Einstein's brain would have entertained such views even when he was asleep.
+5341,1,They should call it ClogMaster 820,"This is a high maintenance printer. I spent more time running head-cleaning cycles and printing test pages than printing pictures. The 1 in 10 prints that actually came out looked great, but it's not worth the hassle. Maybe if you print every day, the ink will remain free-flowing, but printing a dozen pictures every weekend won't do it. The prints from my new Canon look as good, and it never clogs. The epson may save you some money up front, but think about the wasted hours of frustration."
+5342,2,Incrediblock,My youngest granddaughter loves it. She plays with it for hours. Her big 3 year old sister also loves it. Bib hit.
+5343,1,I'd buy it...............IF IT WASN'T UGLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!,"I saw this toy here on Amazon and wanted to buy her cause she was pretty, so i went into the store today to get her, and what a huge surprise!!!!!!! She's the ugliest doll ive EVER seen!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I luv Kenzie and at one time was gonna buy Masquerade Madness Kenzie but they didn't have her either so i bought a new Bratz doll and i LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE her!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So don't buy THIS Kenzie....... Buy Masquerade Madness Kenzie or a bratz doll. =)"
+5344,1,TERRIBLE PRODUCT! COMPLETELY INEFFECTIVE!!!!!,"This pen looks good and is very lightweight, but is designed terribly. Every other panel is about 2 inches off the ground which allows any dog to put their nose under it, and be out in 2 minutes or less. If you leave your dog for even a few minutes, do not expect them to be there when you return."
+5345,2,Fun and Engaging,"Would you change places with your twin sibling? If you'd ask Sabrina Longworth, the one half of the duo protagonist team of DECEPTIONS, she'd probably say not on your life. She'd also say that having tried it more than once, thanks to the imagination of Judith Michael's Judith Barnard and Michael Faine, she lived to regret it, big time. Indeed, faith has a strange way of throwing a curveball when least expected. Especially to this fictitious bunch whose lives make for a pretty decent time-waster read despite the been there seen that plotline. Just go to show you that originality comes in small doses. Just simmer it in creativity and punchy dialogue, and you've got yourself one hot bestseller that is as juicy as a pack of Doublemint gum.-----Martin Boucher."
+5346,1,U call that a Tribute to AFI !!!!!!!,This is the worst tribute album ever. I strongly suggest not to buy this album. If you like AFI that much than go buy all their albums with those songs on it. The original songs on AFI's albums are much better. Take my advice and dont waist your money!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
+5347,1,Not worth it,"This book is less of an instructional book and more of an advertisement for the sold separately software. I'm glad I bought this book used and didn't pay much for it. I think even if I were willing to spend the money for the software, this book would still be unhelpful, because it has so little actual information and instructions. The few words of advice it does give makes me feel like anything I would create with this software would make the invitations just as original as the invitations kits would offer. Not worth the time to read it."
+5348,1,Two Bad Wagons,"I've owned two of these wagons over the span of 18 months. In each case, the wagon's wheel and axle proved defective. Despite the legendary name, I would consider a different brand or product."
+5349,1,Predictable,"I found this book to be so predictable. It was an okay read; however, some parts were just too unbelieveable. For instance, the fight in the church, and Anthony coming from out of nowhere. If the father was all that, why did he keep such a big secret for so long? It wasnt that bad of thing to where he could'nt have told his family. His mother had already died years before. And everyone knew who Nina was from the start. More thought could have been put in introducing her. Not the worst book i've read, but I've read better."
+5350,2,Great book for beginer film makers from cult following director.,"Great Book with tons of advice and commentary from past events from a experienced film maker. The language used is not for kids nor some adults. It's foul but fits the book and style of films that he produces. I have NOT watched his films prior to reading, but they're good at best. Great for low-buget films. This is written from Troma's president and has alot of reference through his thirty years of experience. There are many Troma fans out there that also have written in reviews that slide the rating higher than I think it deserves. It's great but some of reviews make it seem as praised like the scripture from god himself. It's not. alot will help you if you plan to make a low-budget independant film. need information that you wouldn't even think of. I highly recommend if for how to make you own damn movie or if all else fails for the halarious stories they have through past productions. great book."
+5351,2,caress of steel: GREAT ALBUM!!,"CARESS OF STEEL THE MOST UNDERATED RUSH ALBUM EVER!!! let me start off with complimenting the name of the album, caress of steel, its a great title, its awesome. bastille day and lakeside park are very nicely done songs. then theres i think im going bald, most people hate it because it has silly lyrics, but still, IT ACTUALLY IS A GOOD SONG. then theres the necromancer and fountain of lamneth, both are awesome. THE NECROMANCER IS THE GREATEST RUSH SONG OF ALL TIME!! so like i said caress of steel is my favorite album and is the best album. BUY IT! you will not be disapointet don't let these people who don't know about music fool you: this album is the best!"
+5352,1,Vhs,"Garbage, garbage, garbage, garbage, garbage, garbage, garbage, garbage this movie was not good at all I hated don't know why I put one star"
+5353,2,works B-E-A-utifully!!,"It's easy to clean, very quiet, very handy and works wonderfully well. I'd strongly recommended this to those who need to prepare a relatively small size of meal in a quick time."
+5354,2,This is what passion is all about.,"You don't have to be a true car nut or racing fan to enjoy this film. It shows more than just racing but what it takes to be a pure race driver. It doesn't take long for you to start recognizing Senna's love for his sport and doing it for the purity of it almost to a fault. The passion Senna showed in driving and winning showed how he was one of the greatest drivers of his time and not just a good race driver. Driving to the extreme all the time was like food for Senna. He did it to live. Yet near the end of his life you could also see that he did not want to be in his car at his last race. It was subtle but through the helmet eye opening, you could see it in his eyes."
+5355,1,"Basic information, poor organization, useless index","This book is a descent resource of basic information; that is, if you can find it. That's the most frustrating thing about this book is that it suffers from poor organization and a horrible index that follows it's own inexplicable logic.E-mail links? No listing in the index. Same for such basic terms as: pop-up windows, navigation, browser windows, publishing, windows, importing, and printing. It was easier and less frustrating to flip through the entire book than to try to figure out the logic of the index.If you chance on some information that you may need, put a placeholder or a stickynote there immediately; you may never find it again."
+5356,2,These are a good buy!,"I bought a pair of these because my feet were hurting in my dress shoes. They are amazing at supporting my arches and cushioning my heels. For the price, you can't expect more than this. I have around 5 sets now so I don't have to switch them out between different pairs of shoes. I'm sure professionally fit orthotics are better, but for $5, these are a great buy. They fit well in my shoes and I haven't had any issues with them sliding around. If your feet hurt, these are certainly worth a try. If they don't work, maybe you need custom fit orthotics, but it's worth $5 to see if these do the trick."
+5357,1,NOT A GOOD SELLER,SELLER DID NOT SEND THE ITEM WHEN I ORDERED IT. I HAD IT EXPEDITED 2-3 DAYS AND NOTHING WAS SENT TO ME. THE SELLER ALSO DID NOT RESPOND BACK WHEN I TRIED CALLING AND WRITING AN EMAIL. I WAS VERY DISAPPOINTED.
+5358,2,"The Grubby times are coming, are you ready?","What can I say, it's a great Book. This book contains the most comprehensive guide to practical bullet proofing that I have been able to find. I also appreciated the well thought out, easy to understand illustrations."
+5359,2,Little gem of a movie...,"What a cute little film! I watched it because I liked Bend It Like Beckham a lot and this seemed similar and I am very glad I did. Its just adorable and reminds me of the older Disney films which were fun and entertaining but didn't rely on crude jokes or sexual stuff to sell a film. Goes to show that a film can be a nice family entertainment and still be a really decent, good film. Beau Bridges didn't have a big part but the leads were great and the Indian actress is gorgeaous. Also quite funny in a few parts, this is definitley worth watching in my opinion."
+5360,2,Captivating,"I work in the field of pediatric cardiology, and a coworker recommended this book to me. To be honest, I was expecting a much less humble account from the perspective of the surgeon. I found ""Walk on Water"" to be a beautiful tribute to the complexity of congenital heart disease, as well as an intimate account of the family experience. It highlighted the inner workings of what it takes to operate on the hearts of small and fragile children, which I found fascinating -- however, it also highlighted the impact of the intra-op and post-op teams that keep these children alive.The technical jargon was, I feel, understandable and easy to comprehend. It might be a little difficult for a non-medical person, but Ruhlman provides decent explanations at every turn.Overall, a captivating look at a tiny subset of medicine."
+5361,2,She's amazing,This CD book is wonderful. Byron Katie is such a blessing to all who will allow her into their lives. Enjoy...I did!!!!
+5362,1,one word retarted!,"this has to be the worst zombie movie ever made. It was more like comedy hour with the zombies. I had bought this used cause it seemed good on the cover. But once i saw it i couldn't stop laughing. It was soooo stupid! If your looking for a good laugh i would reccomend this movie but if you expect a really scary zombie movie then i would reccomend the ""of the dead"" movies by george romero. This and burial ground are the worst zombie movies ever made!"
+5363,2,How I met FUNNY,Fantastic show....laugh a minute with this cast. They portray a very real life view of how the late 20's and early 30's of one's life really can be. So many of these skits are very close to home. Glad CBS kept this show on. Thank you Amazon fro bringing this hit home!
+5364,2,Excellent,"I played this CD at a Bridal Shower and brought it with me to my hair salon...everyone wanted to know who the group was...they loved it. This CD is excellent!!! It is one of the best ""new age"" groups I have listened to. The mix of various music styles is smooth and very relaxing. The various sounds that are combined with the music is superb. I love to listen to this after a stressful day or even while studying. I purchased ""The Reality of a Dreamer"" by MYTHOS also, and it is excellent also. I can't wait to hear more CD's by this group."
+5365,2,Wonderful!,"I don't know much about other grammars. This is the first I've used by I think that it is very easy to use for a beginning Hebrew student and for the reference of a more advanced scholar. Well-organized, accurate, etc.Erica"
+5366,2,4711 soap,The soap is wonderful! I was born in Germany and this reminds me a lot of being back home! It's a great product and exceeded my expectations!And the price was outstanding!
+5367,1,All - just a man,"I agree that everything that we believe in should be based and studied on a Biblical basis and its foundation. I disagree with several who say that Rick Warren built most of his ""purpose-driven"" principles on the ""wisdom of the world"" and not on God's word. Much of the ""wisdom of the world"" is based on Biblical Christian principles, and they don't even know it! Why should we accept James Sunquist? He's just a man just like Rick Warren. Sounds like jealousy to me. Demeaning another person as this author has is NOT healthy for the church or the kingdom of God. Even though I've heard Rick Warren speak and feel he is a godly person, NO PERSON is to be worshipped and put above God."
+5368,2,Christmas movie,Holiday fun movie I got it for the memory of Patrick Swayze. the acting is good. Ill keep it for yearly viewing with friends and family.
+5369,1,where has the music gone?,"WHAT HAS HAPPENED HERE? I WANT METAL MUSIC NOT THEATRE AND ACTING. VERY DISSAPOINTING, THIS SO CALLED BAND HAS BEEN GOING DOWN HILL QUICKLY ON THE LAST SEVERAL ALBUMS."
+5370,2,A wonderful book.,"I am not a crier. It's not the way I react, but I cried at this book. The charcters emotions are wrenching. Linda Howard makes you feel what her creations feel. It is unbeliveable. A must read."
+5371,2,Excellent introduction to CS2,I had been looking for a Photoshop instruction book for a while. I am extremely pleased with this one. It offers a very straightforward approach to learning CS2. If you are relatively new to Photoshop this book is perfect. It will teach you a basic workflow in a structured and easy to follow manner. Highly recommended !!
+5372,2,I give a copy to everyone I care about . . .,"Boy's Life is the type of book that, at any time or any place, can pull a person out of their life and make them young. The front cover says ""Recapture the Magic"" and I can't think of a more appropriate catch-line. At 21, closer to birth than death, hopefully, and having just begun to encounter the way real life pounds away and yanks away our simple loves, I think that we all need books like ""Boy's Life"" to help us keep that love simple. I give a copy to friends on any fitting occasion. I'd give one to you if i knew you . . ."
+5373,1,"Should be called ""Go get a PAP smear""","A lady does not discuss what other people do with their bodies, nor does she insist that anyone grope themselves or have a physical exam. It's not on her damn business and she knows it. Yet the author does not, and repeatedly demands that women have a variety of intimate exams performed. Most of the other book is no-brainer, if mildly controversial, material (if at times repetitive). But the author crosses the line when she gets into readers' pants and tops! Go advocate for more fundiong for breast cancer research somewhere else. This isn't the place."
+5374,2,great value,This coat rack was very easy to put together and looks great. It holds a lot of coats on any of the hangers without tipping over. It will tip if one of my small children tries to pull her coat off put that's pretty expected. Overall I would highly recommend it.
+5375,2,Well Satisfied,An over the door pulley was recommended by my physical therapist to increase range of motion for my frozen shoulder syndrome. This product comes closest to the exact one used in physical therapy rehabilitation center. It is easy and fast to set up and use. Well worth the money and with free shipping and handling it can't be beat. I priced others that cost more than twice the amount that did not include free shipping and handling. All I can add is that it works!
+5376,1,"Very nice API for 20 pages - rest is, how you put it? - crap",Starts off well explaining API programming then goes into MFC and does a Titanic!Get some of Schildt's programming books instead
+5377,2,Thanks for the good start,Thanks for the great service and the fast shipping. I will be ordering more soon!
+5378,1,just anoher interview disc,"First off there are a million of these out already. no ned to waste your money, all you need to do is go on the internet and check out one of the 10,000 web sited devoted to Reznor and you will find all the information you need on the band. However, if you are a die hard NIN fan then i guess this album is worth having, but god, look at the price! For an interview disc? if you really need this title wait about a month and download it from napster."
+5379,2,Luthiel's Song,"Luthiel's Song: Dreams of the Ringed ValeThis is a refreshing new book, if you are into elves and adventure with true heroism, you'll love this story as much as I did.It gives you a fresh look at having a heart and doing what's right, the giving of yourself for family and new found friends.It keeps you interested from the very start and keeps you looking for more adventures at the end, it keeps you turning those pages.Dare to dream, you will be greatly rewarded reading this book.Robert Fanney is very talented and I believe you read a part of him here as well.Enjoy!!! I've bought more than one book to give out as gifts..."
+5380,2,Best tool I own.,"This product has been worth it's money more than nearly anything else I've bought for the price. I've had it for nearly four years, and it looks brand new. The buttons still feel like new, the tablet itself is still shiny and sleek, no scratches, stains or anything. The pen still works after all these years. I use it everyday in place of my mouse. I would not consider not having a pen tablet. The size is perfect for my 17"" laptop. I might have even been fine with the smaller version. Great buy for any digital aficionado."
+5381,2,title of review,"I found this album really hard to get into, but something kept me coming back to listen to it again and again. Only a couple of the songs have an immediately catchy hook, but the rest aren't failed attempts at catchyness, they're just a more relaxed expansive take on pop-rock songwriting that has a lot of depth. The musical progressions don't always go where you want or expect them to, but most of the time they're surprisingly satisfying. Similar to Foo Fighters and Sugar Ray, but superior to any albums either of those bands have made."
+5382,1,Not a durable product,"I bought the Magic bullet because I like the compact size which is perfect for preparing baby food. It functioned greatly in the initial use. However, after only a few times, the base broke down and I have to send for replacement under the limited 1 yr warranty. Their customer service was not that responsive in returning emails. I did not try to call them as I bought a KidCo Food Mill later."
+5383,2,Lexicon DevilA MUST READ!!!,"I couldn't put this book down! The gossipy style of the interviews printed in this book were completely engrossing and very revealing. I felt close, prehaps uncomfortably too close, to the characters. Anyone interested in early L.A. punk will love this book. The only negative I see is that more info should have been included in the indexes at the back, more song lyrics, etc. Overall, a great read!"
+5384,2,Like a hug for your feet,I swear by these socks and the color is great. Only reason they're not 5-star is because they're so expensive.
+5385,2,Maiden en la cima del mundo.,"Este doble disco en vivo, pone de manifiesto el poder meódico y el indudable contacto con la gente que miles de fans han vivido alrededor del mundo durante muchos años. Canciones como ""Aces High"",""Powerslave"", ""The Trooper"", ""2 minutes to midnight"" muestran la fuerza y la rapidez de los integrantes del mejor grupo de heavy metal del mundo. Un excelente material para los ""hardcore fans"" y tambien para aquellos que por primera vez son testigos de la grandeza del grupo."
+5386,1,The Biggest Loser: Power Walk,"This was truly awful:( I was soo disappointed. After walking with Leslie Sansome for a couple of years, I've gotten use to some sort of cues & timing. This DVD was all over the place. The one thing I did appreciate, (which I wish other exercise tapes would adapt) was the MUSIC ONLY OPTION...the music is good....thumbs up for this!!! Some of you guys talk too much:("
+5387,2,good reference book,"Informative, and a good reference for future genealogy research. In good condition and clean."
+5388,2,Most Versatile Voice of our AGE,Vanessa is a master at voice/note control. Absolutely OUTSTANDING.Amazon did it again with on-time delivery and an in-tact product.Much Enjoyment!
+5389,1,Acceptable at best.,"If you're not picky about your images and just want a light-weight, stylish camera, the DSC-T100 is fine. I just upgraded to it from a DSC-W1, which I'd had for years. I was really happy with my old one and thought the update sounded wonderful, but I think my old camera took better shots. With the DSC-T100, I get a lot of noise in every picture, I get chromatic aberrations around even mild highlights and the pictures also have a lot of ""lens bend"" to them. In a word, my pictures look cheap. When I looked at people using the same camera on flickr, I saw a lot of the same issues in their shots. If everything I just wrote sounds like gibberish, you'll probably do fine with this camera, but I'm disappointed that Sony put out such a bad camera."
+5390,2,This really clicked with me,"For some reason, this film really clicked with me. I'm prone to liking period pieces but done wrong, they can fall flat on their face as did, for example, ""The Duchess"", with me. Depardieu's performance is nuanced and right on the money; it's like he really understood how to handle this part. There are many standout performances and the script, cinematography, casting, wonderful musical score all complimented one the other. I've seen it many times now and it's wistful cynicism is a top notch depiction of a bygone era. Uma Thurman is very good as is Tim Burton. This is one of those film's that I wish was 5 hours long."
+5391,1,"So far, not so good","I bought this because I read the good reviews, and figured, for the price it was a great deal, even if it's reconditioned. Five minutes ago I went to use it for the first time and all of the water I filled it with started pouring out the bottom. Unfortunately, I have already disposed of the packaging materials, so I can't return it to Amazon. Cuisinart requres me to pay the shipping to send it to them, plus include money for the shipping back, so it will be cheaper for me to try to order another rather than fulfill the product's 90-day warranty(which is not the three year warranty which Amazon is advertising--that seems to have been whited out in my instruction booklet). And also, it does NOT include two paper filters. Hopefully, I can get this worke out, but so far, I'm not impressed"
+5392,1,"to much ""less"" for my taste!","I think that the book showcases work that would normaly place third in a design show. The idea of New Simplicity is simply a nice way of saying little color, little visual metaphore, little interest. If you are buying this book because you think that this is a swiss simplistic book DON'T! If you are buying this book because you think it's of the likes of Jan Tischold, or of the Bauhause regime, DON'T. This is a book that can add another inch to your design library, and give you a few ideas for how to make a few colors, and minimal design have some minimal impact."
+5393,2,The best ever!,"I have used many other brands of loaf/bread pans and Wilton is THE BEST by far. It cooks evenly and lightly browns the loaves of bread. I have been making my own bread for about 40 years. Now that I have found the Wilton Excelle Elite loaf pan, I will not use any other!!!"
+5394,2,Very interesting.,Interesting book and if you are interested in anything like this you will love it. I was fascinated by it!
+5395,1,"if there were zero stars, I would've chose that","This book was horrible! It was extremely hard to understand and to follow along. It would put me to sleep at night i was so bored with the book. Now, I'm a pretty constant reader and I read all the time, but this was one of the worst books I have ever read. It had too many sexual references to be on a middle school/junior high reading list. All in all, if you were thinking about reading this book, you really shouldn't."
+5396,1,Not good enough for 1 star,"This was one of the worst movies I've ever seen in my life.I fast forwarded many of the parts, just to get to the end faster.Pure buyer's regret on this one.There should be a rating of ZERO stars, 1 star is too high for this one."
+5397,1,like Rock and Roll Nightmare,"One of the worst films I have ever seen. Which was really surprising given the great cast this film had. I've seen most of these performers in much better roles (movies with half decent stories even). I hate to say this- but it is a truly awful film. I can't help but wonder who the target audience is, Let's recap- Juvenile sexual scenarios? check. Poor renditions of tired, soppy 80's radio tunes? check. Paper thin characters who aren't even allowed to be 1/10th as funny as they have been in their other films? check.It was just not entertaining at all- no redeeming value in the story, performances or even the music. A period piece with this cast should have been great- but this was just a missed opportunity. Sad."
+5398,2,"Great, simple, fun game","I play this all the time. I buy it as presents and people leave it out on their coffee tables for guests because its so easy to learn, yet such an amazing challenge."
+5399,1,broken in transit,this product is built like a tank but somehow the frame was bent in transit and had Schwinn deal with the problem to get around Amazon 'issues'. It is a great highly recommended product
+5400,2,Very relaxing!,"This was my first ""instinctive"" mood purchase, but based on previous reviews I ordered it anyway. Glad I did.There have been many nights were I have had trouble sleeping. So, I pop this BluRay in and I'm out within 5 minutes. I prefer the ""natural"" sound selection over the chimes, etc. I highly recommend this item - it's worth it.I brought it to our Christmas party and put on the ""Christmas Fire"". Everyone got a kick out of it, as it added to the atmosphere."
+5401,1,Battery died quickly,"Battery died after less than 5 uses. It takes a CR1225 battery which for whatever reason seems to be the one size of button cell battery NOT commonly found in stores (CVS, Target, Fry's, Walgreens, etc)"
+5402,2,ceiling,We hung them from the ceiling and it is great. We gaze at the planets during story time and it is all good.
+5403,2,pretty good,"This does a pretty good job of getting the juice out of the orange, lemon..... the only thing it doesn't do very well is keep the pulp out."
+5404,1,"Couldn't get it to ""fountain""","I was pretty good about following instructions for this, but we couldn't get it to ""fountain"" no matter how much I tried to thin the chocolate. One one occasion, we used chips designed for fountains. On another, we used regular chips + oil. The second worked the best, but after a minute or two the chocolate seemed to cool and just got gloppy around the base.A bunch of fixit-minded people at the party took a look and had a spirited debate over whether 1) the heater wasn't warm enough, or 2) there were not enough intake points to bring the chocolate up into the tube (we found 1). So it did provide entertainment, and we could dip the chocolate out of the bottom, it just looked... well... not impressive. At all.This might work with something as thin as chocolate syrup. It worked when we tested it with water, too."
+5405,1,Waste of Money,Too many mistakes. As for the Cram Sheet not even worth looking at. Total waste of time & money. DO NOT USE FOR EXAM.
+5406,1,"Kinkade, Painter of Dreck","Kinkade doesn't even paint his own paintings. His ""art"" is paint by the numbers dreck. He has staff that does the painting for him. Marketing is his real artistry. There is no soul in his work, only dollar signs."
+5407,1,Very uncomfortable shoe!,"These shoes were so uncomfortable, I could not wear them. I ordered them a half size larger as instructed from other reviews of this product. They did fit, but the sides came up too high and hit against my ankle bone causing discomfort. I have never had this problem before with any shoe. Will not be keeping these!"
+5408,1,overrated,"This is overrated. They said the movie was breathtaking in simplicity. Yeah it was simple...There was nothing going on in the movie....Ziyi runs around the movie with ponytails...thats it!!!! what the hell kind of movie is this???? the only reason its here is the success of crouching tiger, hidden dragon...and after all that happens with nothing going on, the ending is a letdown as well.....lousy!!!!"
+5409,2,Eye opening what can be required to stay in the music business for 50 years.,"I am convinced that this is an honest portrayal of life in music during the early days of Rock. Al Kooper is someone who seems comfortable in his own skin and I admire his honesty. We as fans never really think about all the adjustments necessary for a musician to ""stay in the game"". I can't think of too many musicians gone producer like AL Kooper and I found his journey very compelling.For a guy that could easily be bitter about some of his dealings in the industry, I find his attitude admirable.Slow start (as are most Rock books), but worth a read. Unlike any other musicians book that I have read."
+5410,1,Save your money....Don't beleive the hype,"I have kept hearing about how great this disc is and how great this ""ripper"" is. Well, I have finally listened to this from beginning to end. I have to say that I am very disappointed. How dare people compare ripper to Rob Halford. It isn't even close. In fact there is nothing special about him at all. It is great to hear the hooks and crunching of the Priests' music again but the vocals just don't do it for me. Granted, Halford may not be able to hit the heights anymore, but at least it would save the embarrassment of hearing poor K.K., Glenn and Ian playing in what is just a shell of its former self, the mighty Judas Priest. JP please know when to say when. Stop the insanity!!!!!"
+5411,2,Fantastic tool fro around the house,"This power screwdriver has tons of torque! I purchased this screwdriver for the house to be able to get into tight spaces or use it like a normal power screw driver. The kit comes complete with two batteries, charger, tips, and bag. The product appears to be extremely durable.What a great price that will cut down the time of time consuming jobs."
+5412,1,Less than thrilled,"I bought the creative zen touch after getting a recommendation from a friend who's a big technology buff. I didn't want to get an ipod because I had heard several complaints about it and knew I could get more for the money. Unfortunately I've had nothing but problems with this device.I understand that you shouldn't go running with these, but on my daily 10 minute walk to the train the player would restart itself and begin at the place of that last manual shut down at least once, if not more, a day. I talked to customer service who told me to update my firmware on the player and my computer, fine. Did that, then the player could no longer be recognized by any of the file manager systems. Now the player skips, I can't change the music and just today the screen stopped working. I've had the player less than 3 months and I'm probably sending it back and buying an ipod anyway."
+5413,1,Not worth the trees killed to produce it.,"I ordered this book based on other Amazon readers' comments, and was horrified and disgusted at my choice. The suggested readings are very nice, since the author did not write any of them. The rest of the text is poorly written, silly psycho-babble. I doubt anyone wants their wedding benediction prayer to end with ""depart with joy in your heart and happiness in your feet"". I did get plenty of hearty laughs out of the suggested ceremonies, but unfortunately, no constructive assistance."
+5414,2,excellent jazz song collection,i took a chance when i bought this album....i had seen the film and was impressed with the music....man does it deliver...fantastic singing by ms.reeves and cool playing by the rest of the band.
+5415,1,It is what it says it is,"This book serves as a fairly straightforward introduction to postmodern thinking. Unfortunately, it is overly critical of postmodernism, which may discourage the curious beginner from pursuing the subject further. It might have been more appropriately titled, ""Postmodernism: A Very Short Critique"". While there is nothing inherently wrong with casting a critical eye on postmodernism, an introduction should be more balanced than this book is. I would recommend ""Teach Yourself Postmodernism by Glenn Ward as a better introduction."
+5416,1,"good pan, bad handle",This is a nice pan but it has an awkward handle. A saute pan needs a handle capable of heavy lifting and this handle is too flat for bigger hands (mine) and probably not shaped well for smaller hands either.It is a shame that the handle designer might have been using a Korean handle design because I have not seen this handle used by Cuisinart before. I was clearly disappointed.
+5417,2,Good purchase,A very good purchase on my part. It has been so helpful to have some visual aids when I am looking through a microscope.
+5418,2,A must have for your trip-hop collection!,I agree with Jen Boyles (URB Magazine) review of this CD. Laura Derby's vocals pushes Cirrus into the uper level of great trip-hop/electronica groups. Great CD!!
+5419,1,Don't buy it!,"I purchased two M250's for my children. Both kids commented on how cumbersome the operating software was but appreciated having a reasonable-priced MP3 player-- until *both* units failed within six months of purchase! We contacted Sansa customer support when the first one died, and they informed us that they would send a replacement out as it was under warranty. SIX WEEKS after Sansa acknowledged receiving the defective unit, they claimed that the RMA authorization had lapsed (we sent the unit in promptly). Caveat emptor-- if this unit seems inexpensive, it's because it is flimsy and badly supported. Buy an Ipod or *anything* other than a Sansa. My three year old Rio S35 has been a more reliable performer than these M250's. Run, don't walk, from these units, if our experience with their reliability or customer support is any indication."
+5420,2,So honest it hurts!,"I read Poppy Z. Brite's ""The Real Story"" before ""Queen of Noise"". Brite left out a lot of hard-core details. Rossi, however, did not. This is a real pageturner, I couldn't even put it down! Now, I really feel as if I know Courtney. (Even though I'm not her biggest fan)"
+5421,2,Great size,Hard to find batteries work great in my wireless drill. Really like the cylinder/modular design.
+5422,1,Greatly disappointed,"Well I loved the book by Joseph Heller even though it can be hard to follow at times. The movie, however, was a huge let down. I did not expect it to be as good as the book, nothing ever is, but this was just bad. The cast sounds great, but the acting too over the top if you ask me. Especially Arkin as Yossarian, he just annoyed me. There were many characters I came to like while reading, but this movie doesn't give you a chance to like any of them. So much of the book is left out, which is to be expected, but it doesn't make any sense if you haven't read it. The anti-war commentary is almost completely lost and it has basically been turned into a comedy. Overall this was a terrible movie, especially considering how good the book was. It gets two starts simply for being associated with the book. Don't waste your money, just read the book."
+5423,2,Purchase of DVD from Amazon,"Product arrived earlier than expected, in A1 condition. Couldn't ask for more efficient service. Thanks Amazon."
+5424,1,Let's make a Protest to Lucasfilm,"Why don't we all return these DVD's right to Lucasfilm as in protest for delivering such low quality products?That way George Lucas will finally understand that we didn't want what he's been selling. We could send back to him these awful DVD's along with the following request:We want the original, unadultered Star Wars (no ""Episode IV: A New Hope"" nonsense):- Remastered- In ANAMORPHIC Widescreen- In Dolby Digital 6.1 AND DTS 6.1- With the ORIGINAL ARTWORK- Comentary by George Lucas AND The CastBonus Disc including:- From script to screen- Picture Gallery- Deleted Scenes (with commentary)- Original ""Making Of"" featuretes- Original trailersThird Bonus Disc including:- The new Star Wars versionEaster Egg:- The Star Wars Holiday SpecialI suppose that all of the people at Lucasfilm including Georgie himself are considered ""geniuses""...then how in the world haven't they understood that THIS is what WE WANT? Is it really too hard to comprehend?"
+5425,1,Disappointing,"I cannot believe I wasted time reading this book. I usually enjoy Patricia Cornwell's novels, but this one turned out to be a huge disappointment. I agree with the previous reviewer, in that it should have been titled ""Walter Sickerst's Biography"". I found myself extremely bored with the book and would skip ahead to see if it got any more interesting. The writing is chopping and does not flow. And as far as convincing me that Walter Sickert is the Ripper, Cornwell has a lot more work to do.Don't waste your time or money on this. You'll definately be disappointed."
+5426,2,Mostly works,"Works best outside large areas with a lot of stations. Can be kind of fiddely to set if the default station is not acceptable for the area you're in. Poor instructions, unfortunately."
+5427,2,Game is a fag*ot - Game Over!,"Who is that coming online and hating on Olivia? Game is that you out there posting these things? Everyone knows how much Game likes to diss people, but in real life he's a little punk. Game is just a wanna be gangsta and a wanna be basketball player who got kicked out of college for being a dumba**. Game is the biggest wanna-be since Ja. And all of these little Game fans and WhackWall fans are just a bunch of losers who think they're cool just because they go against the majority opinion. Game's next album is going to flop, period."
+5428,1,"Fine, but high defect rate.","The Saitek Eclipse II is a fine keyboard... it has the traditional layout for the cursor keys, which is critical to me, and controllable backlighting with a bit of sidelighting. That's all good. The feel is a smidge mushy but works well for fast typing.But... they aren't manufactured reliably. The biggest problem is half the spacebar not working. To fix this, you have to disassemble the keyboard, readjust the rubber membrane under, reassemble and readjust the spacebar springs. Do an internet search on the words ""fix saitek eclipse"" to get a sense of how common this is. Fixing it takes about 10 minutes, not a killer but kind-of annoying. I've had this problem with all three Saitek Eclipse IIs I've had.My only other gripe is that there's no power key (for putting the computer to sleep) on the keyboard."
+5429,2,"Entertaining and Funny -- oh yeah -- and Informative, Too!","Just about every third sentence in Ms. Truss's book made me chuckle, or even laugh out loud. The entire book is filled with amusing stories, anecdotes, and examples. Yes, there are subtle differences between American and English grammar rules; however, this book is so entertaining and charming, it is a gem to read."
+5430,1,"cool looking, but high maintenance!","Although this product is very cool looking- and interesting to use... the amount of space it takes up in your kitchen and the amount of time that it takes to clean, etc... don't think the product is worth the $80 or so.... it's good looks just don't seem to outweigh the price.... It's high maintenance! Additionally, this product seems fragile and the water did not fully vacuum up from the bottom chamber leaving a diluted cup of coffee...."
+5431,2,Rock lights for offroad,Purchased Tantrum lights to use as rock or spotting lights for offroading at night and to use as work lights when I have a flat tire etc... They emit a clear bright light that is more than sufficient for my intended needs.
+5432,1,Not at all satisfying mere salon music..this isn't Winston.,"Strange, but those who like ""Forest"" don't seem to enjoy this album too much--including myself. I completely agree with everything that was said in Bryan Douglas's review. It is overall a nice set of easy-listening tunes, but all of these pieces presented here could be performed by any other pianist of this genre and I wouldn't be able to find any difference. The extra tracks do not contribute too much either, I don't see a reason for anyone to get this ""limited edition"" instead of the plain version.I'm not saying that this album is not worth at all; it could be a very soothing, relaxing album to some people that simply enjoy those qualities of the music. If you were shocked and disappointed by the previous ""Forest"", then you may find this compensatory. However, this is not at all of the same class as other albums by Winston, which are true classics."
+5433,1,Terrible adaptation of a CLAMP classic,"The North American 'adaptation' of the show Card Captor Sakura is an insult to the the orignal japanese manga-ka CLAMP. Hardly any of the whimsical air to the orignal version has been spared and has been turned into a less than acceptable piece of policital-correctness by the North American distributor Nelvana. The wonderful plot and characters has been destoryed in favor of drastic character and plot changes, meaningless edits, terrible background music, sub-par voice acting, and the deletion/rearrangment of episodes.To truly enjoy Card Captor Sakura as it was ment to me, I'd reccomend the subtitled DVD by Pioneer or the orignal manga (at least Mixx's graphic novels or better yet the Kodansha bilingual editions)"
+5434,1,I paid for this book but never received it,El Caballero De La Armadura Oxidada / the Knight in Rusty Armor (Spanish Edition)
+5435,2,Impressive,"This is an impressive book - from the hand of a fine author,historian and leader most central to this great war.I use it more as a coffee table book than one to read coverto cover. There is more here than I can absorb in the couple ofdays that I would normally spend reading a book.It has many pictures - black and white photos and maps,almost one at every page one opens to.Churchill understood the scope and sweep of human history,as it manifested itself in this ""Unnecessary War"", like noother, and from a vantage point of none other."
+5436,1,the view of a strange woman,"This was my first book by an Algerian author. I found it, hard to say, kind of impressionistic writing, where subjective feelings and thoughts that occur at the spur of the moment count more than actual description. The main characters appear in the story as ""I"" and ""you"" and ""the man"". This no-name-man was married to both women, and the only time he appears in the story is when he calls on the wife to come to bed. The women, meanwhile, are described wandering aimlessly in the town, pondering to take off the veil or not, or worrying about her child who is with the other woman now. I kept waiting for something to happen, for some solution in the hardly existing plot,but... The whole book left me feeling uncomfortable and empty, maybe this was the intention of the author. Anyway, I think, I will stick to Fatima Mernissi in future, much more human and entertaining too."
+5437,2,Chess Teacher Review,I like everything about this product. It gives the experienced player more patience with the less experienced. Although I do have to comment on the incorrect picture on the box! Follow the enclosed instructions and you'll do great!
+5438,1,Stream of Consciousness style detracts from value,"Sorry to part company with the crowd here.THe author's thesis -- that ""news"" and ad media severely blur the distinction between Real and Unreal -- sounded intriguing, and I wanted to see how the author developed it. Unfortunately, after a few dozen pages, it seemed like the book was a good EXAMPLE of that thesis, and not an elucidation of it. It reminded me of James Joyce, and while Joyce's style can be wonderful for a novel, it kind of stinks for an expository work. My second thought is that publishers have got to stop paying people by the word.The author's point seemed reasonable and based on common-sense -- my quarrel was he could have made it more succinctly, with better support, and with less verbosity.Oh well, enough said."
+5439,1,Trash,"Honestly, this book was total trash. Poorly written, amateurish and disturbing on too many levels to name. It's definitely light reading (if any) so if you're bored on the beach, this might be your kind of thing. I found it a little embarrasing."
+5440,1,WHY?!?!?,"That's the question surrounding this movie. Why does Will Ferrell, who was king of over the top comedy after 'Old School', continue to do PG and PG-13 movies. He's not funny unless he is out of control, and he can't let loose in a non-R rated movie.Why would they greenlight such a completely lame script. Nicole Kidman plays Isabel, who catches actor Jack Wyatt (Ferrell)'s eye and she wants her to play Samantha on a remake of Bewitched. Isabel is a witch in real life, however. This just makes the movie play out in an inane and genuinely stupid fashion. To boot, it wasn't even really funny. I could read the back of the 'Old School' DVD case and laugh more times than I did during this movie. It is a complete snooze-fest.The Final Word - Bewitched wasn't funny or intelligent or even entertaining. I wanted to kick my own ass for seeing it. Not recommended to anyone under any circumstances."
+5441,1,What an opportunist!,"The real travesty of justice is that fools like Diane Dimond get to publish a salicious, fiction book about a person she has never even met! If you have not met Michael Jackson, you can not tell me anything about him. And she needs to stop calling herself an ""expert"" on Michael Jackson. The only thing she is expert at is keeping her mug on TV obsessing over Mr. Jackson. She needs to get a life. And this book will flop worst than Bob Jones'."
+5442,2,Sony SRS-T88-works great,"If you need a lot more sound than any laptop or mp3 player alone will provide, then get one.For its small size and weight, and the amount of sound it outputs, its awesome.If you want 100 watts of power, then get 100 watts.I got 4 watts, and it weights less than a cd player.Plus, I use 4x rechargeable 2000ma or 2500ma AA batteriesand im good for hours and hours.Hook it up to my laptop or my MP3 player and im a portable music station.It pans out on the highest levels, but often that is too loud anyways. 90% of the time, even 50% volume is enough."
+5443,1,"Sorry, but to this layperson, it's just not convincing","While I am by no means a biblical scholar, I have done my share of studying the origins of Christianity. I cannot speak to the linguistic side, where the author speaks of Greek language parallels. But I do think that I understand the basics of Christian origins, at least as far as what the various scholars have each emphasized.My opinion is that this book is not convincing. I have now read three-fourths of the book. The parallels seem tenuous at best. At times, the parallels seem coincidental. At other times, I simply don't see the parallels that the author sees.Remember, this is simply a layperson's opinion, but one whose keen interest in Christian origins is not satisfied by this theory."
+5444,1,the difficulties all are easy and pethetic,"this game is sooo easy and was a waste of my money, i can beat it on all difficulties. im not a very good chess player either. It would be awsome if it were hard, BUT FFS THIS IS SOOO DAMN EASY"
+5445,2,Nice walking stick,"I had one like this one and lost it. This one is better though so except for paying out money it was lucky that I lost the first one. You can make this a walking staff by extending it all the way out, or a cane by making it short, or any length in between. It is also improved from the first one I had. The handle is tighter (the foam covering on the first one slipped so that the metal stick showed for about the top 2""), and is a better gripping surface as well. It is easy to unscrew the walnut cap and attach a camera, which makes for much steadier closeups when you are out in the woods and want a picture of flora or fauna. The bottom of the stick has a rubber cap, which easily comes off to reveal a spike that is very handy on ice. All in all, a great, versatile, quality walking stick/cane for just about anyone."
+5446,1,"Very, very overpriced","I love my toddy maker. I only drink cold brewed coffee. That said, the original toddy maker came with only one plug and I knew that sooner or later I would lose that one plug. During a move, sure enough the plug disappeared. I ordered a set of filters at the same time that I ordered the replacement plugs and the set of filters came with a plug. Had I known that I would have saved the money and simply ordered the set of filters which included the plug. I have no idea what to do all these plugs. I probably won't have to order more plugs again in my lifetime. I guess that's a plus.I do wish the toddy maker people would be more precise in their product descriptions."
+5447,1,Not good.,"I am about 3/4 of the way through this book and had to look up reviews, I felt like I was missing something, I just couldn't follow the flow of the book. Once I read the reviews, I realized it was not me, the book is not good. Great, yes, we ALL know you attend Princeton, super for you, but to go on and on boring, pompous, the story is all over the place and so far has come to no real conclusion or charactor development. Save yourself the time, skip this book."
+5448,1,Auto feed? Try no feed!,What a worthless product. I wonder if the design engineers ever actually tested these things in a real environment. The auto feed never works. Ever try to trim with one to two inches of line? That's all that ever comes out. They say do not bump it on the ground like a regular feed trimmer but out of frustration you will. Guess what happens - The spool cracks and breaks. I have roughly one hundred feet of trimming to do. After two and a half times I gave up on the trimmer. I could cut it faster with a hand trimmer. I'm returning it tomorrow. It is one month old.
+5449,1,You Cant Replace The Battery,"Ive been looking into MP3 players, as i am preparing to purchase one. In my opinion, this is the best one out there, but dont plan on keeping it forever. The battery is built into the thing, so when it dies, you have to trash the unit, and buy another one. I read that Creative says the average battery lasts 2 years or so. Buy the way, the IPOD is built the same way, also making it a disposable player."
+5450,1,This is not the same as the '90s original,"I bought a bottle of this back in the late '90s and always got compliments on it. My then girlfriend now wife loved it. Unfortunately Nautica stopped making it so I switched to other colognes. When I found this on Amazon I was quick to pick it up, but unfortunately this is not the same scent. Nowhere near as good."
+5451,2,Great for any level including middle aged moms!,"This video is great even if you haven't exercised for years-not difficult to keep up with the warmup, some floor exercises are tough but after 3 weeks, I can do most of it. Gilad seems to read your mind as you exercise and encourages you to continue. I am using this video exclusively and am not tiring of the routine-I think it is the perfect work-out for those of us who think we are too far gone!"
+5452,2,Best Metallia album out there,"From the suspensful acoustic opening of Battery to the explosive ending of Damage Inc., this has to be their best piece of work. Kirk Hammets and James Hetfields fast paced guitar riffs and Lars Ulrichs drum bashing in the title track and Damage Inc. are absolutely two of the best metal songs on the market. Im not much into Instrumental songs but ive listened to Orion more times than i can count. And the slow and eerie riffs of The Thing That Should not be are abosolutley mesmorizing. the only other 'tallica album that comes close is ""Ride The Lightning"".So If you are a fan of metallica or any metal band, this is diffently a must have."
+5453,1,Too bad...,"I do not recommend at all to buy this movie. Go buy Matrix 1. That was a great movie. This one isn't. I think we need to e-mail staff for matrix 2 & 3 and tell them to ask LOTR's staff on ""How To Make a GOOD Trilogy and NOT to DIE trying"". Its a pity they didnt know how to continue such a great story."
+5454,2,I hate Radiohead.,"I've had it. NO MORE RADIOHEAD COMPARISONS. Just because a band is British doesn't mean they ""sound a bit like Radiohead."" Muse have infinitely more energy and talent than any whining Thom Yorke. New Born is one of the most earth shattering things ever produced, and Feeling Good is jazzy subtelty mixed with perfect Muse near-headache-rock. This album is a huge burst of energy to British music, and I would like to say that I like pretty much every British band... except Radiohead. So let's just say that Muse are better, great, fab and this album proves it."
+5455,2,almost as good,"I was going to purchase this at a bridal store, but found it here for way less. the one that I tried at the store seemed to be a little 'stiffer' and held me up better, but this one will work great with my wedding dress"
+5456,2,Great Product,"This works great!! Within a day my son had stopped sucking his thumb; however, you should also be aware that it did make him vomit twice. Would I recommend this product to friends? Absolutely because my son is no longer sucking his thumb which is a habit I thought would be extremely difficult to break."
+5457,1,the condition of the book was horrible,the condition of the book was horrible ... i paid 77$ for that book .. other online book stores had better deals but i thought its amazon ... i will try and never buy anything from this place...
+5458,2,Henson at his best.,"A favorite of the families for years, the Dark Crystal has sub messages worth the viewing by all ages. Good addition to an library."
+5459,1,Are you Serious?,"Are you serious? While this may be somewhat fun, It's hardly a quality Kung Fu Flick. Sure they're all a bit fantastical and unrealistic but this is over (or should I say under) the top. The special effects are worse than usual, the fight scenes horrible and the cinematography was bad even for a Shaw Bros. movie. Closer to a Tom Baker Dr. Who ( which I actually like) than a Kung Fu movie. Not a movie for a true Kung Fu fan!.......will I watch it again?......you bet'cha!"
+5460,1,B is for Bite Size,"This book gives the reader a number of bite size morsels about what to expect in the Emergent ""conversation."" Unfortunately, that's it! It is merely a very brief survey of a few aspects that the editors have chosen to bring forward. There is no detailed explanations, no arguments, just straight-forward, ""this is the way postmodern culture is and this is the way the Emerging Church should be"" paragraphs.Don't be fooled though, some of these concepts are much more thought out than you might think. On the other hand, as a previous reviewer stated, some are not. If you are looking for a description of the Emerging Church, I don't think this is the book you want. But, if you're looking for a few paragraphs about different things they find important, you might want to check this one out."
+5461,2,"""How do you say, 'I love you, Kindle!' - without getting personal?""","""Thank you, Amazon.com, for inventing this really neat electronic device, The Kindle! It works great for downloading books, newspapers, magazines and for connecting to the internet. I can get my E-Mails when I'm out and about, and if necessary, I can go home and open up more complicated E-Mails. I really appreciate having certain subscriptions automatically downloaded every morning and waiting for me to read them. Getting a chance to sample the books or other subscriptions before actually buying them is really handy. THIS KINDLE ROCKS!""Larry D. NuttingWausau, Wi."

+5463,1,GIVE ME A BREAK !,I BOUGHT THIS TAPE THINKING IT WAS TWIGHT ZONE EPISODES BUT IT IS SOME OF THE WORST TRASH I HAVE EVER SEEN. ROD SERLING'S IDEAS WERE STOLEN AND REDONE INTO GARBAGE. I DON'T KNOW SPIELBERG AND WARNER BROS CAN GET AWAY WITH THIS CRIME. I HAVE BURNED MY COPY !GENE ADDINGTON
+5464,1,Durability,This product appears to be poorly constructed. Did not have the product in use for even a couple of weeks when one of the seams in the main inflatable ripped wide open rendering the product unusable. Too bad. The children really enjoyed this product.
+5465,2,"uh, oh - James Spader actually got cuter creased.","Ai-yi-yi, I didn't really notice that James Spader had developed some creases since his Dream Lover days the first time I watched this movie because I was too busy discovering Maggie Gyllenhaal's old-fashioned face but this time I noticed! Then he went Winston Churchill to do that Boston Lawyers show with Shatner of Free Enterprise fame. I'm going to have to watch this show again after I calm down because America has presented so many naturally awesome looking faces to the worldwide audience and James Spader has NO superstar career - no vocal fan following apart from a completely honest shoutout from Buffy in the very very first episode of the Buffy the Vampire Slayer television series. I am definitely buying this movie along with Dream Lover and Jack's Back on dvd. I don't care for Sex Lies and Videotape because I have NO idea what that movie is about and he is wearing very saggy straight guy video archivist jeans throughout the film."
+5466,1,STAY AWAY!! HUGE FAILURE!,I have had great luck with Denon of the years. We have 3 of these installed as background music players at the convention center I work at. They were rarely used but last time I went to play some music ALL 3 FAILED TO OPERATE! I tried multiple discs both burned and factory fresh albums and none of them read any discs. We have an older Denon that plays everything we tried to play on the DCM-290 players but have since moved to streaming music. What a shame that a great company would put out this garbage. I have never seen a failure rate like this.
+5467,2,"Right size, and pretty, but I still miss my Nalgene","After all the news about BPA in Nalgene bottles, I decided to switch to a SIGG. It's very pretty, and it's a good size. The smaller mouth keeps it from spilling and makes it easier to drink from in the car, or on the go. My only two issues are that the metal is really cold when you first fill it with water, and it doesn't seem to hold temperature as well as the Nalgene did. The other issue is that I'm a little concerned about cleaning it properly. I wash it every few days, and let it dry out with the lid off.....but I'm a bit apprehensive that I can't get in there and wipe it out really well...."
+5468,1,Way too small,Purchased shoes but gave them away. Reviews say buy one size larger and I did but they were still too small. I wear a 9.5 in all shoes except these I needed an 11 so I went with a different style and gave these away.
+5469,2,Bilogy Book,Buying text books on Amazon saves you lots of money. Just make sure it is exactl the right one. This book was exactly what the class called for at a fraction of the price.
+5470,1,This book title fits...,I initially bought this book for a friend but then used a couple of times for reference when the person I leant it to asked questions... After a couple of times reading sections I quickly noticed a style in the author I had seen before. Not realizing it was an author I had read before and swore I never would buy a book from again I missed it... but here he is again parading through the book like he is some programming genius and you are some idiot who should not be learning to program in the first place. The book title fits the way he treats his reader... I found his technique to be even more insulting and arrogant.
+5471,1,Noisy!,"I purchased this pump to recycle water through a solar heater for my swimming pool. It is junk as far as I am concerned. It is noisy beyond belief! Especially for something so tiny. Unless you are going to use this far, far away, try another product!"
+5472,2,Just what we ordered,"These cameras are being used in an environment for lots of people to share and to learn about video communication. So far, they are durable, and work just as advertised. I would definitely buy them again."
+5473,2,Aloha Elvis,the picture quality was great knowing that it was recorded many years ago. sound was fine and the packaging was exceptional.
+5474,1,not enough room,"Not at all what I expected a lot smaller and not enough room for paper towels, tissues or anything else with any size to it."
+5475,2,good zombie book,"Theres alot of zombie books out there, most of which are bad, but happily this one is really good. I usually dont like stories when females are the main (just for the fact that its harder to connect to the opposite sex) but that wasnt a problem here. Great action, really good descriptions of events which arent too cluttered or drawn out. The only gripe I have with it is the fate of the main badguy.. I thought he deserved more. Anyway if your a fan of zombie books then you will be pleased with this one."
+5476,1,A dissapointment,"The author writes well, but nothing he says is so profound or comforting. In fact, at times it felt kind of insincere and glib, like he was using other people's sorrows (including his own family's) to make himself appear deep. I agree with the comment's of the other reviewer: Naomi Levy's To Begin Again is by far more helpful, the only one that belongs in the class of When Bad Things Happen To Good People."
+5477,1,best part isn't even by jeff beal,"the tone for the shows music was created by wendy melvoin & lisa coleman...the theme they created is the best part of this cd. too bad more of the original music from the first season wasn't included in this compilation. also, just a correction to a previous post; the people who designed the main titles won the emmy, not jeff beal."
+5478,1,"Go to Apple's DVD selection for your Beatle Fan- Boo, BBC!","Really, really disappointed with this movie. I'm pretty well- read on Lennon and a life- long fan but couldn't get into to this. History- wise, too, it focuses on some really irrelevant events and skips over other more important ones. For example, why the focus on John's dad? More Cyn! More Yoko! What about the music? I did agree with the more harsh betrayal of Lennon, as believe it or not, he is human. However, Yoko's quiet, less aggressive character was a disappointment. Their relationship seemed sudden here when John had been communicating with her since India... Some little details such as this add to the drama but take away accuracy.Anyway, any big Beatle nerd may appreciate this as simply ""amusing."" It was fun to yell at the screen, personally.A more normal fan will be bored and disgusted by Lennon.Don't buy. A waste!"
+5479,1,It raised my blood pressure,It tends to be inaccurate. The blood pressure reported is higher than when compared to results in doctor's office taken at the same time!
+5480,1,Quality is awful.,"I looks great and I love the design, but the quality isn't quite what I though it should be. I choose the Kohler over the others for its heavier gauge steel. The price point jump to the really heavy stuff was more than I could afford. So far in one week with very gentle use I have made a small ding from a pot that dropped just and inch off the bottom and two scratches on the top of the sink that I can't explain. These were not copper pots, rather lightweight egg pans. I just purchased the bottom covers for protection, but those are a pain because you must pick them up and clean under them due to food getting stuck. I wish I would have saved up the extra money on the heavier gauge steel models. Now I worry every time I wash dishes.Update: I really don't recommend this at all now. After a few months of gentle use, it looks like my last sink did after 20 plus years of use with all the scratches and dings. This is obviously a very cheap grade of ss."
+5481,2,This one was *even* better than the first (also good!).,"I read this in a couple of days, and I must say that the schmuck who wrote the review below (""Not Again!"" was the title) was full of it. This book is only similar to the first because it has another gift being sent out to someone. Otherwise, it is *totally* different than the first, and is even pretty *scary* at times. I eagerly await #3, which I take will be even better. I can tell newcomers to this serial book this much: DO NOT LISTEN TO THE BAD REVIEWS OF BOOKS!"
+5482,1,Awful; Don't waste your money!!,"I rented this from my local video store. I am a horror movie fan; I even ocassionally enjoy cheesy predictable horror movies if they have some redeeming aspect. ""The Tomb"" has none. The production quality of this movie is awful. It is like an 80's porn flick (not that I have seen one, lol). The music is equally awful. The acting is awful. The plot (and I use that term lighlty) is awful and, as far as I can tell, is a direct rip-off of the ""Saw"" movies. Frankly, I couldn't bear to watch it after about 20 minutes and I turned it off. It appeared it would be quite gory from the few minutes that I watched but what is gore without anything else to support it? Boring. Avoid this movie at all costs."
+5483,2,Wife loves it... which makes me happy,"Got this for my wife's Christmas gift last year. She loves it. It matches our other bedroom furniture too. I was impressed because it wasn't as cheaply made as some of the comps. I was hopeful the back would be decorative as well, but it's not. No matter, no one sees that side anyway. Overall we're happy with it (I'm happy 'cause she's happy - that's how it goes) :)"
+5484,2,a fun & entertaining novel,"As an English teacher I enjoyed the Jane Austen angle. The book had great descriptions and a fun, entertaining story. It was hard to put down!"
+5485,1,Existential despair?,"This book seems to advocate the idea that life is inherently meaningless. This may be true, but most existentialists believe in giving artificial meanings to life. I would rather believe in those ""unreal"" meanings then give in to the more ""realistic"" despair. Hope may have no inherent meaning, but it is necessary. The main character in this uses reason so much it controls him. I believe reason should be a tool not a slavemaster.Maybe I missed the books point, but that's what I got out of it. It should be read by all religious existentialists so they can laugh at it."
+5486,2,Swim like Bridger; no suit; skin . . .,"Best show in it's genre, be it Sci-fi, Drama, or adventure.It's premeire on DVD is long past due. Season One is the Best of Three. Blessed be to those that have past Jonathan Brandis and Royce D. Applegate, long life those who live on Roy Scheider, Stephanie Beacham, Don Franklin, Stacey Haiduk, etc."
+5487,1,One Thing only,"One Thing makes the cd. Pretty much everything is plastic eighties music, very synthetic and not very pure. This is an early version of the band, so I can't knock it too bad. For this cd to have such a high rating is unforgiveable, though. It's pretty bland for the most part with one standout song. Much better things come from this band. You can bypass this one, buy pretty much any other cd from this band, and come out a winner. This one just isn't that good."
+5488,2,Voight Never Better,"Solid cast. Eddie Bunker appears in cameo, as well as contributed a substantial amount to the screenplay--and ultimately is what makes it come across as the real thing. Some of you might also be interested in knowing that Straight Time ( a title I never liked. Original title was No Beast So Fierce) starring Dustin Hoffman, was also based on Bunker's hard-hitting crime novel.Although Koncholavsky does a fine job here, had Akira Kurosawa (arguably the greatest film director of them all)directed this--whose story this screenplay was based on--I would have given it five stars."
+5489,1,Missing the edition in the description,The book took two weeks to arrive. I wish that they had put the edition number in the description. I needed to get the 3rd edition and this book is the 2nd. I will make sure to email next time to to duble check on everything.
+5490,1,Try the J.G. Reeder stories instead,"This novel by the once-famous mystery writer Edgar Wallace is fast-moving, but too cliche-ridden and predictable to be recommended. Once a certain nefarious character breaks free from custody, you'll be able to write a synopsis of the rest of the book without reading it. And here's a bit of a love scene: ""He crushed her in his arms, his cheek against hers, his lips tingling with the caress of her hair."" It goes on like that. ""The Daffodil Mystery"" is free on Kindle, but perhaps not worth every penny. (On the other hand, the short stories in Wallace's collection ""The Mind of J.G. Reeder"" are still quite enjoyable, if you like early twentieth-century detective fiction.)"
+5491,2,Does the job,"I've always had a fear of my guitar hitting the floor because the strap came loose. No more worries now. Pretty much no instructions, but was easy to figure out with a quick search on You-Tube."
+5492,1,Maybe next time,"They threw this together in a few weeks so they wouldn't lose the rights to the franchise .It's total crap,like some bad spoof made by first yr film students.It's a real shame to see the franchise like this."
+5493,1,Wrong item never received credit back for purchase,"Even though it states and takes you through ""find out of this item fits your vehicle"" it did not fit not only that the credit back for the item was never returned to me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
+5494,1,Kid stuff,"There should have been a "" Smurf "" on the package face instead of an adult so that older persons don't make the mistake of buying it. So far,of all of the golf games that I've purchased,nothing compares to "" Tiger Woods Golf "" ."
+5495,1,Expensve and complete piece of garbage.,"This item is a rip-off. First, I purchased it to record my favorite HBO shows because I work late. Well, it doesn't record HBO. Second, when I does record a show the DVD recorder takes up to 10 minutes to finalize the DVD and the loss of quality compared to my regular signal is huge. This didn't happen with my less expensive ""Lite-on"" brand recorder. I guess I should've and will purchase a lower priced item from the competition. Most DO record the shows I need, they record faster and they give me, the consumer to decide if I should or not copy certain shows. Sony is out of my dictionary."
+5496,2,Very Helpful to fast moving start ups,"Our web startup found this collection of instructions and form guides VERY HELPFUL in forging ahead to incorporation. Concise, clear and methodical."
+5497,1,Not Useful as a Walker for all Children,My child could not use this as a walker. The protruding arms that are used later on for them to ride did not give her enough room to walk in between them. I took it back.
+5498,1,Not an introduction.,"I disagree that this book is a good introduction to sendmail. It does not cover the basic options well, and very quickly goes off the deep end of the sendmail.cf file. It is probably a very good introduction to the advanced sendmail.cf programming that most people will never need to do.It barely mentions how to create sendmail.cf using the m4 macro processor. It doesn't cover virtual hosting well, but spends pages and pages on uucp and decnet mail. And ,it is unix-centric to the point of assuming that all users will be on unix boxes with their own properly configured hostname and sendmail, rather than on DHCPed PCs down the hall (which seems to be the current situation).All in all, this book told me little of nothing about the sendmail tasks I have to accomplish and way too much about stuff I should never have to touch."
+5499,2,Great Bonnie Raitt Album,"GREEN LIGHT is a great Bonnie Raitt CD. The songs are all great, with a couple of exceptions. Among highlights are the Lowell George memorial ""River Of Dreams""; the rockers ""Willya Wontcha"" and ""I Can't Help Myself""; and the NRBQ cover ""Me And The Boys."" Raitt's belief that the youg Australian tourist jailed in Indonesia since 2005 for drug-smuggling was unjustly convicted makes GREEN LIGHT an essential purchase for both your ears AND your conscience."
+5500,1,Would not work with my system,This product was a disaster. I hate is when you spend a few hours trying to figure out how to make a product work land find in the end it is incompatible with your system. I sent this one back for a credit - waste of at least 3 hours of my time.
+5501,2,FUN!!,i play this dvd n sip some wine when i wanna have some fun! great for brushing up on routines.... and learning skills!
+5502,1,Useless and poor design,I've used dryer balls for quite some time and I love them. The very first time I used these they came apart at the seam. You have to put them back together every single time you use them. Too much of a hassle when there are better made dryer balls without this flaw at comparable prices. I do not recommend these. As soon as I get new ones they are going in the trash.
+5503,2,I'll Give it Four,"Okay, so the material is a bit dated (back in 97) but thats okay since its still some of the better up and coming bands from the Chicago area. Its got the pseudo space rock of Kill Hannah, the nice dark wave of File Underwater, and the, well, just kinda cool and weird music of Plastic Princess (going to have to listen to these guys some more to make up MY mind, but hey they're from Chicago so hey have to be cool, right?). My only question is where can I get the book that inspired this stuff. Get it, listen to it, go see the bands."
+5504,1,too little for too high a price,"I should have read the other reviews before ordering this. I didn't realize just how small it would be. It will probably be useful, but considering the size and age, it should cost about half this much."
+5505,2,Playing Cards Historically,"This book is a well-researched, thorough and informative guide to the history of playing cards. I was especially interested in the medieval information, but found the entire work clear and easy to follow, while keeping up high standards of academic quality. I would recommend this work to anyone seriously interested in the history of the field. The Plates were also very helpful in illustrating the development and styles of cards through the centuries."
+5506,2,PROVIDES GREAT INFORMATION,"I ordered this book for my father, whose brother died in WWII. The family was given almost no information at the time, but by piecing together details, my mother determined that he was almost certainly on a particular boat when it was sunk by the enemy. That fact was confirmed by this book, and it offered a lot of information that is offered only sketchily in other areas. We appreciate the author and the information he was able to provide families, as well as the story of the wonderful chaplains. My mother, an avid reader (particularly about WWII), said this was one of the best written histories on WWII that she has read."
+5507,1,not worth a dime,I bought 3 of these for my special education classroom. They broke almost immediately. I'd call it a piece o cr**.
+5508,1,The unit I bought was defective,"I have been keeping check of my blood pressure with an old fashioned mannual unit for years, so when my systolic and diastolic readings were consistantly 10 points lower with the new unit than with my old unit, and with my doctor's readings, I was suspicious. I then went to a drug store and purchased a new manual unit, and it's readings were consistant with my old manual unit. I returned the Omron unit to Amazon and requested a refund."
+5509,1,Bad Design..Does not last,I bought 2 of these 3 years ago. The first year it worked great. Last year the units had problems rewinding. This year 1 unit will not rewind at all and I had to take the other unit apart to get the hose off it was so tangled. DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY.
+5510,2,true fans only,"This volume is good for one thing: the rest of season 2. Apparently they knew they were being cancelled and didn't care about season 3 and just tried really hard to blow as much of the budget as possible ( plus the b.j. cummings character is pregnant and that throws off the original dynamic that makes the show hilarious). So, if you are a true fan, buy it, it contains the rest of season 2 which you need and is great. Season 3 can hit the dumpster though."
+5511,1,Did not fit,"This charger did not fit the Nokia cellphone as advertised. Not worth the trouble of returning, so I threw it out."
+5512,1,The biggest waste of money on Amazon,"There is no information on this DVD whatsoever. Save your Money. I cannot believe it is called Tournament Strategies?The only mention of tournaments is that ""in tournaments you get to play 9 handed, 8 handed, 7handed, 6 handed etc.....""That is it."
+5513,1,This is just to refill!,I thought this was individual fly board traps that I could stick around my house and catch those pesky fruit flies!Turns out this is a refill pack for another device! Be careful!
+5514,2,Best Show Ever!,I was reluctant to begin this series but I watched the first four seasons on Netflix and was hooked after episode 1.
+5515,1,worst ever,"I doubt the reviewer previous to me actually saw this movie, but let me assure any potential purchasers that this movie is garbage. The plot moves like an old man on a bad acid trip. What there is of decent martial arts action is overshadowed by the ridiculous hopping of the ghost-children.Unless you want to laugh your way through the plot and action, just look elsewhere for an old-school kung-fu flick, this is just garbage :P"
+5516,2,Outstanding,"I rarely get sucked into a book the way I did by this one. Congradulations Robert Ferrigno, this is an absulote page turner. Good character development with many twists and turns to the storyline. This book is exactly what a mystery should be, believable and hard core content.Thank you"
+5517,1,Exciting?,"I borrowed this ebook from the library thinking it had action, adventure and two lovers finding their way back to each other. Maybe the book just starts slow but I got to page 117 and the only action is Merlyn faking his death.Ysabella goes on and on, repeatedly, about how terrible Merlyn is, how he tricked her. Her reason for leaving him revolves around how pious she is but she makes the most of her reputation as a witch. At this point in the book she is not a very likable character and I can't bring myself to listen or read more.I think I could really like Merlyn for all that he is a deceitful devil. I want to know more about his side of things instead of the constant harping from her.The action has to increase as the plot moves on but waiting well over a third of the book is too long for me."
+5518,2,Great,"Wow this is the best sims game i have ever had it has the sims livin large and the original sims along with the sims creator all in two disks. The sims creators name explains it all you get to create your own sims, whether to make them fat, skinny, tall, or even make them have wide heads. I reccomend the sims vacation along with this this game has things to build relationships and to make love. and great other story lines a little hint to make some extra cash is hit control, shift and c and hold them down in that order until a green screen comes up then type in rosebud and type a whole bunch of ;!;! as many as posible and for each set of ;! you make a 1,000,000 simoleans! their money of course so in this review i hope i said it all buy this game!!"
+5519,1,Packaging,"Very poor quality packaging, box was all but destroyed.Cardboard is not heavy enough, no metal staples, just tape. This was the second box I received like that, parts missing."
+5520,2,Mostly a good book...,"I thought Andrea wrote and eloquent and truthful representation of Motherhood, with one exception. The section on ""mother tongue"" was disturbing and disappointing because it explains how mothers learn to swear in front of their children...what? How is this the language of motherhood? I expected something different, something more intelligent & appropriate...maybe a discussion of learning to interpret baby-talk and baby cries or adjusting to talking freely about baby bodily functions and daily life with a newborn.Having said that, I did find the other parts of her book enlightening, realistic representations of the struggles, triumphs and span of emotion in the first years of motherhood. I will, and have, recommended this book to my family and friends."
+5521,2,What's in a name?,"This isn't just a baby name book. My friend and I spend hours pouring over this wide selection of names. Find the meanings and histories of African through Welsch names. Find the origins of names like Abd-allah, Fiona, Xin,Gilbert,Palekolomaio, and Amaryllis. Spend hours picking out favorites."
+5522,1,the perfect paws,I LOVED IT IS THE BEST POSSIBLE BOOK OLD? MAYBE BUT THE BEST POSSIBLE BOOKS THAT I EVER HAVE READ!!!!!!!!!!
+5523,2,Good deal on small quantity.,They seem to work OK. Too bad they can't/wont have them made here in the USA. Corporate greed is the cause of the downward spiral of the way of life in America.
+5524,2,Great little journal,"Received this as a Christmas gift from a dear friend, and I just love it. Keeps me in the moment and helps me remember all the wonderful things to be grateful for each day."
+5525,1,Nice drive. Horrible company,My Terastation is just over a year old. I have replaced two drives so far. last week it failed to power up. I have been trying to work with their tech service for over a week. They never have anyone available to talk to you. They do not answer e-mails. After trying for three days I finally got a tech on the phone by waiting over an hour. He said he would replace the unit. He needed to fill out some paperwork and would call me back in 10 minutes. Two days later I got ahold of someone in sales who said she did not know anything about it and there was no record of my call. Then the next day I got an e-mail form to fill out for an RMA. I did and two days ago and have been unable to reach anyone since. Their support is so bad I would never buy anything from them again.
+5526,2,Papo figures are great!,"Papo makes the best 90mm painted PVC figurines and the Cannon Pirate is a prime example of this toy company's excellent products. Far superior to Schleich or Bullyland, Papo figures exude action as well as personality. One of several fantasy pirate figures, this cannon-carrying bucanneer is loaded with detail. He sports a tricorn hat with skull emblem, a flowing red beard, a braided pigtail tied in a bow, and his powerfull arms and hands support a bronze cannon on his left shoulder. Mysterious tattoos cover his torso and arms and a haversack bulging with cannonballs hangs on one hip. It looks as if he is either carrying a cannon barrel onto a pirate ship or getting readying to fire it like a shoulder weapon. Either way he's ready to take on the enemy be they Papo royal sailors or other Papo pirates."
+5527,2,Betty Crocker Diabetes Cookbook,"Bought this for my mom. She has a hard time keeping up with what to eat and what not to eat. She says this cookbook is great. For the recipes they use ingredients you probably have on hand. Most cookbooks for diabetes require you to buy extra ingredients, not normally on hand. She loves it!!!"
+5528,2,Rush At Their Greatest,"Bought This Album In 1977 after I saw Them In Concert So I Could Keep Enjoying The Concert Memories, It Is Great, Especially The Drum Solo By Neal Peart!!"
+5529,2,Best kept secret and most useful recovery book on the market,"After many years of study on conflict and peace-making , I was amazed by the usefulness and wonderful information packed into this small book in a readable, easy-to-understand style. This book has lead to more positive life changes than any other book I have encountered. Both my husband and I read it in one afternoon and have used what we learned everyday since and have shared it with many others. A must-read for any person who would like more understanding of interactions with other people and better relationships in all areas of life."
+5530,2,How do you rate a cable?,"They have retention clips, which I suppose is a plus over the cheaper ones that don't. Otherwise, it's a cable, and it works just fine."
+5531,1,Cognitive Therapy,"The content of the book may be good, but the book itself is not worth it's weight in water. It fell apart, only used a few times and now I have to keep it on the desk to use it. It just fell apart."
+5532,2,the Heart of Fugue,"Gyorgy Ligeti said ""if I am allowed only one musical work on my desert island, then I should choose Koroliov's Bach, because forsaken, starving and dying of thirst, I would listen to it right up to my last breath.""That's written on the back of this CD package. What's inside the package totally justifies the hyperbole. It is, in fact, one of the rare performances of Art of Fugue that truly transcends the idea that it is a work more for the eye and brain than the ear and heart.This is playing of thoughtful mastery, profound and supremely articulated. As with Gould, there's a strong personality at work, but this one is a bit less impious. Koroliov's WTC and Goldbergs are excellent but this is his finest recording."
+5533,2,Great for Toyota Rav 4,"I bought this bike rack for local use, although we use it for a family trip to Yosemite. It is easy to put on and take off and was very stable once bikes were completely tied down with bungie cords and straps. We only used it for two bikes. Not really sure if three bikes would work or even fit. Had to buy the Allen adapters bars for our bikes to fit on the rack.Overall very pleased with this product. It meets our needs for two bikes."
+5534,1,too much immoral sex- leud,I wanted to like this film. I kept watching it until the homosexual scene- too much for me...low class sex scene after sex scene.
+5535,1,Nice idea - could be better quality,"Unit seems to operate ok except that the clamps don't fit into the tight space around the battery posts in my car. I have an older Schumacher charger with much smaller clamps that fit everywhere...these folks could learn from that.Also, the instruction manual seems like it was originally written in some other language and translated into English. It's spotty in details and I seem to get items on the unit's display that aren't at all documented in the manual."
+5536,1,highly overrated,"I'm writing because I'm horrified by how many new and expecting mothers assume that Avent bottles are so great just because they see everyone else with them. I was one of these mistaken fools: several friends and my sister-in-law used them and I thought--oh, this must be the thing to do--and bought and registered for them. Come to find out, when I asked all these folks, they HATED the bottles. They LEAK all the time!!! I don't care what the AVENT consultants say about not tightening them too much (I called customer service) -- sometimes they will leak even halfway through a feeding, SOAKING everyone after deceptively seeming fine. They are expensive too and just not worth it. Normally I do not write reviews, but I am moved to do so right now due to all the above misinformation."
+5537,1,Not Impressed...,"There are talented actors in this movie.However,I couldnt TOLERATE to watch more than 25 minutes of this before I turned it off. It was not funny, THE plot was BLAND, and I kept waiting for the movie to evolve. It was MUCH worse than I anticipated by the reviews and JUST do not have the conscience to recommend this movie."
+5538,2,"Bright, narrow beam, heavy","I bought this unit for use in early morning and evening bike commuting. It's quite expensive in comparison to units I've owned before, but that seems to be the case when you make the jump from AA powered units to Li-Ion packing rechargeables. The largest drawback of this unit is probably the battery -- it's quite large and heavy in comparison to other units in its price range. My commute is short and I ride a mountain bike so I've opted to live with the weight, but I'd steer someone away from this unit if they're concerned about every ounce. Otherwise, the light is plentiful and it is supposed to go for a whopping 6 hours on high output. The beam is a bit narrow, but that works for me since I'm on mostly straight sidewalks and roads. The unit seems fairly well built, but I am disappointed that it's made in China. Many other units in this price range are Made in the USA."
+5539,2,Still cracks me up!,Just got my copy in the mail and I can't believe that I am still spouting lines word for word. This movie is so classic. Don't sleep on this one...
+5540,1,With Murderous Intent,"As true crime stories go, this was not one of my favorites. The author spends alot of time detailing background on every new detective, wife, bailiff etc. that enters the picture. I prefer when they stick to the subject story and I found myself skipping over alot of detail that really did not affect the main story at all."
+5541,2,rune:viking warlord,"awsome game,great graphics,game that gets your brain working trying to figure out what to do next.very challenging game where the easy level is not that easy.i think it has a good storyline, but i have a great imagination.i do reccomend this game."
+5542,2,Courageous Book,"Yet another book that adds to the evidence that Lyndon Johnson and his Texas backers were behind the Kennedy assassination. Yes, you will learn more than you ever wanted to know about Johnson's bedroom skills. You will also catch a glimpse at some of the people who hated JFK and wanted him dead.This book is also a reminder that there were plenty of people in Dallas who came forward and told their stories about that day in November, knowing that it was the right thing to do. Perhaps one day America will have the courage and face the fact that Johnson took office in a coup d'etat with the suppoert of high government officials."
+5543,2,Horses of San Simeon,"A good read for enthusiasts of early horse breeds and breeders history, as well as Calfifornia history. A good bit of bloodline informatiion on the Hearst Morgan, Arabian, Morab, and Thoroughbred programs. Also touches on the Palomino, QH and Appaloosa programs from the Hearst Ranch. Well worth my money."
+5544,2,Stunning!,"After Death Head, I have been desperate to get this sequel.Thanks to the writer's website, it finally arrived by mail. And it was a wonderful read, as good as Death Head. Just could not put it down. Jarrat and Stoney are gorgeous characters, the more so because they are lovers. The plot just flew by, one rip roaring adventure after another. This is what a great romantic sci-fi is all about. Plenty of action, fascinating world building and of course intense loving which knows no bounds. Glad to have acquired Scorpio, the third book. But will hold on to the week end to start because I do not wish to be interrupted. Mel, Cheers!"
+5545,2,Nice CD/DVD carrying case,"I bought this many years ago and still have it. It doesn't get much use, however I was/am very happy with the quality."
+5546,2,Excellent,This book was exciting and loving. The characters were believable and you could not help falling in love with them. I look forward to reading her next book.
+5547,1,who the heck is Jo-Jo Franco?,"Poorly written account of the life of Joseph Franco, basically spends the whole book tooting his own horn. He is ""friends"" with every one from politicians to movie celebrities...do we care? Other than using Jimmy Hoffa's name in the title to boost sales, the actual book has very little to do with JH."
+5548,1,Disappointed,"After being urged by an associate to purchase this Neiko Digital Caliper, I purchased it and was anxious to put it to work. I brought it along on an important project during which I would be verifying dimensions on a large number of SKUs. It quickly became apparent that the readings were not consistent. Smaller dimensions came in OK, however, when I would go past about 7"" or so the accuracy seemed to disappear. This was very frustrating and I reverted to using my tape measure instead for nearly the entire project. At this point I consider the purchase of this product to have been a complete waste of time and money. The saying ""you get what you pay for"" has been proven correct in this instance."
+5549,1,I have a popper too!,"Have the Zenith plasma 50"" Z50PX2D purchased 4/6/07. We are probably below average TV users and TV popped Sept. 11, 2008. 17 months after install. Did not buy extended warranty. TV repairman from store that TV was purchased from picked up TV and has had it for 2 weeks with no news. I started looking for a new TV and came across all these ""popping"" reviews. I will call local store to inform him of this problem and that I am not alone. However, when I called checking on status, clerk said he has 8 flat screens that he is working on and waiting for parts! I will also call the 877-543-8325 posted previously and see what they can do for us. Update: Called LG & talked to a supervisor and he is helping me. My confidence for Zenith/LG has been restored!"
+5550,2,ICP does it again,"Although I will admit Insane Clown Posse has been doing it for awhile, they cracked me up again. Big Money Hustlas will make you laugh,unless you are the easily offended type. All I have to say is, "" Magic magic ninjas,"" what? If you have to think about it just buy it."
+5551,1,Beware - Contains BPA,"I opened the package (which arrived quite quickly), and as with all things plastic, I checked the recycling symbol to see what it was made of. To my horror, I saw 'pc' (polycarbonate) imprinted onto the bottom of the container, which means it contains bis-phenol-A (BPA). So, I am returning this item. What a shame. I'll have to look for another one which doesn't contain toxic plastics. They should just make them out of glass or stainless steel."
+5552,1,Not Season 3,This was a bad buy. It isn't season 3. It is a combination of season 2 and 3 and the episodes aren't in order.
+5553,2,More Great Hilary Stagg!,"If you like harp and/or New Age music, titles by Hilary Stagg are for you. In addition to this album, I also own Dream Spiral and Sweet Return. Beautiful harp playing. Definitely satisfies the harp lover in you!"
+5554,1,What a dissapointment,"This camera appeared to be the perfect one for what I needed; an easy to use camera with a zoom. The day after I received it I used the zoom and it retracted one time. The next time it would not retract and the zoom is completely jammed. This in itself is not so bad, annoying and inconvenient yes, but not a total disaster. There is probably a simple fix for this. I thought I could just call the manufacturer and get some help. Fat chance of that! They do not even give a phone number for customer service. I had to send an email and was told I would get a reply in writing within 3 days. I just got a reply (a form email letter)that tells me to ship the camera back to them at my expense. Next time I will research the customer service as well as the item I purchase."
+5555,2,Check out this C.D.,"I thought this C.D. was going to be better when i bought it. I love the song Masquerade, but on this C.D. it is just the song like you hear it on the radio. I thought there would be some intersting remix or something. But it was still a good C.D. and it was worth buying."
+5556,2,GREAT READ!!!,"I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN AN AVID READER UNTIL LAST YEAR, WHEN I WAS DIAGNOSED WITH LUPUS AND ADD. I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO READ ANY FICTION BOOK WHAT-SO-EVER. ALL I COULD MANAGE WERE BOOKS ABOUT MY ILLNESSES. THIS BOOK HAS HELD MY ATTENTION AND LET ME GET BACK INTO MY WONDERFUL READING HABIT. THANK YOU MRS. JANCE FOR A WONDERFUL READ AND A GREAT REMINDER OF HOW MUCH I LOVE SEATTLE."
+5557,1,truck ventshade,Tape needed to attach to vehicle was not adequate in size to properly attach the front corners.It was lacking about 2 inches where it curves around front mirror area. The most important spot to attach to vehicle and no tape. I was lucky I had some.You spend 40 dollars for 2 piece's of extruded plastic and they skimp on 2 inches of tape. How smart is that?
+5558,1,Not Much Appeal for a Male Reader,"There are very few male authors in this collection of stories. If you are considering purchasing this book for a preteen boy, I advise against it. While the stories are good, it took my reader no time at all to burn out on all of the ""girl"" stories."
+5559,1,Disappointed from Texas,If I had read some of the reviews I would never had purchased the book. When I looked at it closely I realized that it was something I really couldn't use because it did not include the up to date building requirements. If the title shown had mentioned 1932 edition it would have helped in my decsion whether to purchase the book or not. One thing I learned was that I need to check and double check before I purchase.
+5560,1,Too much paper wasted on the back story,"Interesting idea, good characters.. But it took eighteen pages to give the reader the set up for the story, which for me, is way to long. Then once the action gets going, which is the only thing that moves the story, there's more and more and more back story. Maybe it's just McKinley's style as I writer that I find fault with. I want to be thrust into the action, and then have to figure it out along the way as the story unfolds, giving the reader a little back story as it moves along. Otherwise, I feel to bogged down, and plain bored. So, I skimmed a lot of it, just to get to the stuff that didn't bore me.For vampires, I prefer J.R. Ward, Kim Harrison, Laurell K. Hamilton, Mary Janice Davidson (Queen Betsey series), Keri Arthur (Riley series), (Morganville Vampires) Rachael Caine, or Rob Thurman (Cal Leandros series)."
+5561,1,"Do Not Be Fooled, This Album Contains Remixes","I bought this album because I looked at the track list and saw that it had all the hits I knew and loved. Sadly, once I listened to it, I was very disappointed to hear some of my favorite songs (The Lion Sleeps Tonight, Happy Together, and Poison Ivy to name a few) remixed with an awful 80's drum machine. If you want the real goods, purchase the original 1982 self titled Nylons album,I wish I had. I would have given it 1 star, but it still contains the original versions of some songs including Love Potion #9 and Duke of Earl."
+5562,1,Ouch!,"Horrible product - just a bunch of old footage with commentary by a couple of wankers. Stick with authorized, official RHCP products. This is a waste of time and money."
+5563,1,Ultra violence meets (...) humour,"Mel Gibson must be a very disturbed man. All his films are very violent. ""Payback"", ""The Patriot"" and ""The Passion of Christ""(which at least I found to be pretty funny though I don't think it was meant to be) all glorify violence.Catherine McCormack takes off her clothes in this film which is why I give it 1 star and not 0. Unfortunately Sophie Marceau doesn't take off her clothes and even more unfortunate is that Mel does. I found the mooning scene in this movie to be quite childishThis movie is intended for the less intelligent American market rather than for us Scots. All of Mel Gibsons recent films are marketed towards less intelligent people such as George W Bush or the Pope or Mel himself I suppose.Mel Gibson hasn't made a decent film since ""Mad Max 2"" yet he continues to make millions of dollars making these awful films.I guess...YOU CAN TAKE MY TALENT BUT YOU CAN'T TAKE MY MILLIONS!!!!"
+5564,2,Gave As A Gift,This was a gift for my son's girlfriend and she was really wanting it. She said that she had used them in hotels and always wanted one.
+5565,1,Doesn't Last!,"I bought this exact mower in Jan. 2007, was very pleased with it and used it about once a week for half an hour to do my yard. Hardly what anyone would call a tough work-out for a mower. It worked for the summers of 2007 and 2008 and then made it through about a month of 2009 before the motor went. Since it only had a 2 year warranty, that was the end. I've had cheapie gas mowers that lasted for 15 years, so for me this was a pretty lousy investment."
+5566,2,Thumpin cans,"These are the best headphones I have ever owned. I don't buy $250 types but these are great. They are of good quality,portable and sound fantastic!"
+5567,1,Look for Another Product,"This is just an awful crockpot. Admittedly it's rather inexpensive but does have good functionality. But on low it will boil the food. On low it will burn the food onto the side of the crock. This is on low, not high. Maybe I received a unit with a poor thermostat. But I will be purchasing another one from a different manufacturer. It even boiled cheese dip...on low. I've used a few different crock pots over the years so I am not a novice."
+5568,1,Jackson's `Dirty Diana`?,"Almost everybody knows D.D. was obsessed by M.J. like Tom Sneddon.I did not expect a nice ""story"" from her....This book is an evidence of her hate."
+5569,2,Great Family Film,"It is simply entertaining for the whole family. It has a simple storyline and it is so smooth, that time flies!Nothing to analyze, just relax and enjoy good entertainment. The graphics are very well integrated to the scene and story."
+5570,1,Pointless,"I have long wavy hair that curls almost instantly with a curling iron. This must not get hot enough because I think I would get better curl from winding a stick through my hair. I have even tried spraying my hair with hairspray before using and get little to no curl. Trust me, you will be disappointed. I have purchased plenty of inexpensive curling irons that work just fine. But this is not one of them."
+5571,2,Presto 6-Cup Stainless Steel Coffee Percolator,"Actually, the Presto Percolator makes five cups of coffee instead of six. I use the Melitta #4 cone filters and they work well. The coffee has a good taste and it is hot. It is a good value for the price. So far, I have no complaints."
+5572,2,book fan,"Story line was o.k., but the characters were awesome. Parker does a great job with his usualy characters and describes the new ones very well, I can almost picture them in my own mind. I am a huge fan of Parker so I always enjoy his work, although this story line was a little weak. I enjoyed the twists and turns it take and that's what kept my so engaged."
+5573,1,Not meant for strong chewers,I bought this product for a 2 year old golden retriever and the dog chewed it up within minutes. Not worth a buy for large dogs.
+5574,1,Less then okay of a flash light,"I was wanting a good small flash light I can use when working on my car, having previous bought a Maglite 3-D flash light, I wanted to buy another Maglite. But this mini flash light is not bright at all, and the beam is very small. The cheap Chinese flash lights I buy are brighter then this one. Overall I am very unsatisfied with this product."
+5575,2,Great Shirt,"Great quality shirt & really quick posting to the UK, would recommend to anyone in UK as these shirts are not available here."
+5576,2,Glimpses at greatness.,"If High Cotton could have been titled The Best of Joe R. Lansdale, then Bumper Crop's revised one would be The Early Stories of Joe R. Lansdale. I have been a fan of Lansdale since 1982 or so, back when he was beginning to see regular print in the pages of Rod Serling's The Twilight Zone Magazine -and it is nice to have those short shorts that I remember so clearly (The Dump, Chompers, etc.) finally collected into a book format. Most of the stories in this collection were written fast, or before Lansdale had discovered, refined, and polished his blackly comic and ruggedly vulgar writing style, so those expecting the artistic heights found in High Cotton will be confused or disappointed. These are the stories that contained the flickers and hints of the greatness that was growing within Lansdale's writing. Highly recommended."
+5577,1,"broken bottles, drenched cartons","Bought and received two boxes of 22 year panax ginseng extract bottles x 30. Five of those bottles were broken, which would not have been so bad if the contents of those bottles did not then spread all over the box making the entire shipment sticky, and nasty. Had to take them all out, wash them and then could not use the container they came in for storage. So even though I was technically out five bottles out of 60, the ensuing mess makes it very difficult to use what was left."
+5578,2,Better than the first!,"I rated the first 4 stars, it was a great start but a bit sluggish in parts that I found myself struggling to stay with the story till it got good again.This book did no such thing to me, it may have gone a lot faster but this book is so well done and exciting. I loved it! If you have the first one and liked it, buy this one, you'll like it more.P.S. people say black and white loses some of the story as apposed to color, this book was originially black and white and I think it makes it better, though not as much definition, the details become more obvious. :-P"
+5579,2,Great Coffee Maker,This coffee maker is very reliable and works better than any coffee maker we've used. We purchased it based on it's high ratings in consumer reports and are very pleased with what we have.
+5580,2,Great Product and MADE IN THE USA!!!,"Highly recommended! These batteries work great, last a long time, and are inexpensive! Plus they are made in the USA so it is a no brainer to me. Why not support our economy and the American workers? Buy these!"
+5581,1,Wasted dollars,Video delays are horrendous! There is a disconcerting lack of sync between the audio and video. Similar to a 1970's Japanese over-dub movie. Don't buy it!
+5582,2,Beautiful. Haunting. Mystical. Not a 'story'; a vision.,"This is a haunting, beautiful movie. If one wants story lines and the typical American movie, forget ""House Made of Dawn"". Littlebird is a spiritual, mystical man, totally out of touch with 'white man's life' but thrown into it. His chanting is the best, most powerful, most entrancing I have ever heard. Total feeling. I only wish I could find a recording by him."
+5583,1,"Can you say ""FRUSTRATING""???","Just took this one out of the box and even with a college education I can't figure out how to make it work!!! My 4 year old little boy clicks around aimlessly trying to make something work, to no avail! Unless I'm totally missing something, there are no real instructions as to what to do to get things going, there's only a big to-do about the art show and portfolio."
+5584,2,Very good for business man,I am working in a business environment and this item is just what I needed to be smart and clean without looking excessive!Great one! love it!
+5585,1,it broke in 2 weeks,"It worked really well for 2 weeks, and then just stopped working. I dont think i treated it unkindly---i kept it in my pocket next to my cellphone.Maybe if i had treated it more gingerly it would have lasted longer. But what's the point of this form factor if you have to baby it?"
+5586,2,So excellent in art,"As others have said, this is interesting viewing for anyone interested in Shakespear and essential for anyone thinking of playing him. Would like to note that this is the complete series of 9 episodes. In the VHS set there were two added tapes from the earlier South Bank Show in which John Barton and other members of the RSC also participated, and was likely the springboard for the full series. However Ian McKellen's discussion of the ""Tomorrow and tomorrow"" speech from Macbeth was in the earlier show and not part of the actual ""Playing Shakespeare"" series with John Barton and the RSC, and hence was not 'edited out' but simply not included. While the early South Bank shows have interesting bits, the meat in all here on these DVDs."
+5587,2,Brava Renee!,"This is Bel Canto at its finest! Beautiful, haunting and moving! I love Renee, she's gorgeous, very talented and the best soprano I ever heard!"
+5588,1,Can't compare with Norelco,"Compared with Norelco's, the Panasonic shaver was disappointing:1. The shaves are not as close on men with medium beards2. As a stiff foil shaver, it does not contour around bony areas, such as the chin, as well as the floating, rotating heads on the Norelco.3. The shaver leaves the stubbles of your beard in your sink, making for a messy daily clean-up.I had high expectations with Panasonic's claim of such high RPM's of blade movement. Unfortunately, the quality of the shave is limited by the foil design. Even higher RPM's would not fix its weaknesses."
+5589,2,The best Lost World easily.,"Out of the three versions of Conan Doyle's masterpiece this is still the best and though the dinosaurs look out-dated now they are far better and more realistic than in the 1960 and 1992 versions.A team of explorers led by the excellently-portrayed Professor Challenger set off to find a plateau in South America where dinosaurs, in isolation from the outside world, have escaped extinction and still live on. They finish up bringing one of the creatures back to London where it escapes and causes havoc. (Both these plots were new ideas back then, and have been ripped off countless times since).Not only a visual treat, this is a piece of cinematic history and is certainly far more watchable than that special-effects-laden bore of the same name. Get hold of a copy of this 1925 classic now!"
+5590,1,Stick with a manual stapler,"Purchased this gun, but will be returning it right away.This gun may be good for very soft wood and short staples, but is worthless for your average wood or hardwood.I tried this gun first with 1/2"" staples on poplar wood. The staples only went in about halfway. I tried again with 1/4"" staples (the shortest) and they still did not penetrate fully even with very hard pressure.I tried the same staples with an average manual gun, and they penetrated fully.If you're looking for something tho make your staple work easier, look elsewhere."
+5591,1,Runs BIG,"My son received this as a gift for his 4th birthday in the Child size Small which is meant for boys ages 4-6. He is tall for his age, but this costume is huge on him. It is too long and there is no way to realistically make it smaller for his size. Also the belt falls off of him because it's so big and there's no way to make it tighter.He is so disappointed because he wanted to wear it for Halloween this year, but it bunches up at the knees. I'm disappointed by their sizing standards and wish that I could figure out a creative solution for him."
+5592,2,Not Grandma's but still good,"My wife's grandmother used to make homemade gooseberry jam. This is good jam, but of course, it's not grandma's"
+5593,2,"A little tight, good quality",Quality heavy duty material with corner straps to slip around corners but somewhat tight. Have to stretch it tight to get it on.
+5594,1,To this we've come...,"I adore Julie Andrews, and was pleased as punch to see her host this show. I rate this DVD a 1 STAR, and that one star is Julie Andrews. The rest of the women on this DVD just aren't her, and they never could sing as well as Julie. Elaine Stritch is fantastic to have here though, but the rest of these singers aren't very convincing. Audra McDonald's breathing and pitch problems are just odd--you always want to root for her and hope she'll eventually find the right pitch, but alas... Bebe Neuwirth... who cares? who is she? who was she? I'm just not interested. The tragedy is, of course, that Julie Andrews hosts, but isn't singing. This lot of marginally interesting broadway singers is a display of what's wrong with broadway today. Yawn."
+5595,2,"If you hated this book, why not send me your copy?","I haven't read this or any other John Le Carre book, but I just saw the Gary Oldman film of ""Tinker, Tailor,"" and I thought it was one of the best films I'd ever seen. If any of the many disappointed Le Carre customers wants to send me their copy of this or other Le Carre books, especially the George Smiley ones, or ""The Spy Who Came in from the Cold,"" please mail toFoolhardy Reader,406 Cloverway Drive,Alexandria, Va 22314Thanks very much!"
+5596,2,Yet Another Brilliant CD,"This is it-the Mercury in the trilogy of his CD line. The best songs on this one are The Fight Song, Disposible Teens,Target Audience, A Place in the Dirt, The Nobodies, The Death Song, Lamb of God,Burning Flag, and Count to Six and Die. I really hope that everyone goes out and buys this one because it combines Anitchrist Superstar and Mechanical Animals which makes it really unique and special. I hope that the Golden Age of Grotesque is just as good as all of it's presuccessors. But knowing Manson, it probably will be."
+5597,1,Down Hill,"This CD is not even close to being as good as the Lights Off album. All he raps about is money, girls, and cars. With wack beats and even worse lyrics, it's undeniable that Cash Money is going no where fast. Can I get my money back???"
+5598,2,Best popcorn,"This makes the best popcorn I've had and with only a teaspoon or so of oil.I have used mine for about 10 years but I think it is time for it to be replaced. It only has one small dent and a nice ""patina"" on the inside but the gears are finally giving out. I have a new one that I had bought for gift-giving purposes but I think it will be staying with me while the old one is ""retired.""I have more than gotten mine money's worth although now I am spoiled and won't eat microwave popcorn any more."
+5599,2,Enjoyed this book,"I've read many military/war books and I can say that I really enjoyed this one. The author has a very easy-to-read writing style. With other military books I've read, some authors feel that they have to list every soldier/rank they encountered. It can get confusing. Not so with this book.Every part of this book is great from the Selection process on through the individual conflicts that he was involved with.It's a must read."
+5600,1,Only for the Looks,"I bought this product to play on Rock Band 3. Now, I'm not a real drummer, so I don't use this for my full potential. However, after about 30 minutes of playing on Expert, one of the legs bent and I fell over. I attempted to force the bent leg into place, and continued playing. After about 15 minutes of playing, it bent again. This is not a quality product."
+5601,2,ANOTHER GREAT ADDITION TO THE COLLECTION !!!!!!,Not as magical and is darker than the first 3 movies. Overall it was a great movie!!!The ending leaves you anxious to see the next film!!!
+5602,2,This is the first book that I have seen that focuses on the,"One of the strongest aspects of this book is the profiles and case studies.I also like the way the book relates real life experiences and sample scenarios, to the content. I think this book would be quite competitive in today's market. This is the first book that I have seen that focuses on the project management side of the web development business. It has people and project emphasis that I like."""
+5603,2,mathematically uplifting & v. 4th dimensionally so,"usually in my daytime job i'm more your english/shakespearian type - this film took me 2 times to get into it, to be honest. now - it's like i understand the whole world is MATHEMATICAL - everything is physics - my mind!!!!!!! (of course i'd prefer hamlet saying "" to PI or not to PI, blag de blag de blag"" but this IS an adventure of the mind of a film. FOR ANYBODY. even thicko english teachers........and true to form, any mathematical entity usually appreciates music & this film has plenty of fine stuff to match the poignant moments. it's very fetching - it's a good film. (is film the right word these days?)"
+5604,1,Bed not made well,"The dog bed is not comfortable for my dog to sleep on the filling is much to loose, calling the product a bed is a big stretch. I bought the extra large for a big dog and she just sinks through the bed provides no padding"
+5605,1,Just not believable!,"I've enjoyed Barbara Taylor Bradford's work in the past, A Sudden Change of Heart does not live up to Barbara's reputation. The characters are very weak, and not convincing. She spent way to much time elaborating on things that really didn't enrich the story. Although she did delve into a lot of controversial topics, the characters just didn't carry the story well. The ending was so far fetched, I couldn't even talk myself into believing it. The story reads like a really bad Danielle Stelle novel, I was not impressed."
+5606,1,Eh.....,"Full Collapse is decent for what it is, but not essential by any means. Thursday is perhaps the best of what has been dubbed the ""mainstremo"" movement, and while their brand of stream-lined emocore is a nice respite from the slew of bad Blink 182 rip-offs, it's nothing special either. Some melodic guitar riffs here, a screamed chorus there, repeat. If this is your thing, I'm sure you'll enjoy it; it's not god-awful by any stretch. But this just doesn't move me anymore. I'd suggest you buy yourself a Jawbox record; it lasts longer."
+5607,1,Not Worth It...,"This cheaply made book may be able to claim that it contains all of Sorayama's images, but the reproduction quality is poor, on cheap paper, and many of the best images are split down the middle by the spine/seam of the book, making them look even cheaper than this book already makes them appear. Not worth your money, unless all you want are tiny lousy quality images on tissue paper. Sorayama deserves better."
+5608,2,Century Spring,"A real CLASSIC! First heard about Mason Jennings from the surf movie ""Shelter"" and then was stoked to see him playing with Jack Johnson when he swung through O.C. Throw in your surfboards, pick up your friends and head out. When you're getting a little sick of ALL the same old [stuff], buy it! Songs are short stories about friendship, love, a finding oneself in the world! The best purchase I've made with [money] in a long time. Late."
+5609,1,There should be a negative star rating...,This was the worst movie I've seen so far in 2006. I really wanted to like this flick but I found myself using my cell phone half way through the film and nobody cared. Unless you are THAT much of a sci-fi junkie that a horrible plot and script means nothing to you or can justify a bad movie because it has some T&A then don't waste you money. I know 6th graders who could have written a better script thatn this.
+5610,2,I am addicted to this series,They are cute with the occassional insert of something adult. I just love the interactions between the humans and animals and the charactors that have been developed in this series. Keep on going Rita.
+5611,2,wrong songs,The songs listed for this CD are not correct since the cover/insert is for a particular artist not listed on the CD. The songs on the actual CD are not the same as the songs listed here.
+5612,1,Was this necessary...?,"Got these as a package with the Booda dome cat litter box. This thing is so much work to put on and it is easily shifted once on, so there really is no need for it. The dome liter box is great though. I use it without the liner and it is just as easy to clean..."
+5613,1,nice work---no substance,"I bought this when it first came out and returned it because the book doesn't live up to how it was promoted at that time: This is NOT a text book and will teach nothing about how to apply make-up. It does have good pictures of excellent work done on famous people and it give s brief biography of Mr. Aucoin, but it makes no attempt to explain how and why he did what he did. It is a nice portfolio but not a text book.Go to Mary Quant or Bobbie Brown for that."
+5614,1,Dead out of the Box,Had to send it back. Was not able to be programmed out of the box.So....Dead out of the box.
+5615,2,Excellent book for new puppy owners,"I have raised yellow labs for 15 years and this book has gone home with every new puppy owner. Yes, there are probably better books out there, but this one is simply basic and easy to understand. Ms. Rutherford was my neighbor for many years in Colorado and just the nicest person you could ever meet. She raised yellow labs for many years, as well, so her experience was and is much needed for the serious pet owner. She came to see my pups when born and always was full of encouragement and praise for my good job. I've spent alot of money buying this book and giving to my new pet families and they were just thrilled. Terrific experience but the book helps tremendously. Don't hesitate in buying it!"
+5616,1,Broken,Righ out of the box the up/down lever did not work. It's like it is not hooked up at all. The other two levers work fine. Kind of sad because it does seem like a fun toy . The rest of the toy seems pretty sturdy. Since I am never home for UPS to make a pick up my 17 year old is trying to repair. Probaby a mistake but at least he is enjoying himself.
+5617,1,Does NOT include a permanent filter.,"The technical specs for this product included a permanent filter with this product, and I was disappointed to find that one was not included with the product. I chose this coffee maker over another (slightly cheaper) model b/c I thought it included the permanent filter. Can this be fixed on the website b/c this is misleading?"
+5618,2,glasses,I bought these glasses for replacements for a set my parents have. The glasses are perfect for everyday use yet still elegant. They arrived without any issues. I highly recommend them based on my parent's love of this product.
+5619,1,Stupid stupid stupid...,"I don't really know how to put my hatred of this movie into words. It was THE worst movie I have ever seen in my life. I have seen a lot of bad movies in my time, but this really takes the cake. I don't think I would even wish this movie upon my worst enimy, that would be too cruel. I didn't laugh once watching this movie, it just left me shaking my head in awe of how really horible it was. Please save yourself from torture, and skip watching this excuse for a movie."
+5620,2,"Great Stories, and a good story","Dubliners is a story in itself. The book was rejected by various publishers because of its ""political contents"" and Joyce wasted time and money before finally seeing it printed. The misadventures of its publication is an excellent story in itself. But what about the booi? Granted: The Dead, Counterpart, Two Gallants are wonderful, but, being unbiased (mainly because of Ulysses) something is missing from this book. The simple, yet cunning descrpition of provincial Dublin is magnificent, but I miss Dedalus inner voice, or the remarks from the guy at SandyCove. Nonetheless, if you find Ulysses difficult, start with Dubliners, and enjoy Joyce"
+5621,2,Go and play the game,"Luigi's Mansion is a fun game. Don't think the game will be boring or anything. Just go play it. I wouldn't recommend buying the game because it is short and pretty easy to beat. When I got the game, I played it the first day, stopped playing for a while, and then I really got into the game. Unfortunately (and the reason why I gave it only 4 and not 5 stars), this happiness and sheer joy lasted about 3 to 4 days. Instead of buying it, rent it and you'll probably beat it. But the game is completely fun while it lasts."
+5622,2,Brilliantly written.,"There was great attention to detail. I could feel myself right next to the characters, experiencing what they felt. War, romance, and a new spin to a long history of rivalry between two species. Truly an excellent read from prologue to epilogue.The only complaint I have is that I have to wait for two more!"
+5623,2,Best can operner I've experienced,"I've had this for a few years now, and it is standing strong like brand new, no rust, nicks, bends, and it gets a hard work out in my family. I have bought more for my sisters that want one too."
+5624,1,Total disappointment,"I received this bulb as a defective one. However, I believe the bulb is not brand new, it has signs of use on its body, also dusty on the mount. But, the amazon customer service is superb, solve this problem easily."
+5625,2,best two way radio ive ever used,"works like a charm!great sound quality, long distance, holds charge for a while too."
+5626,1,Wish I had those four hours back...,"I just watched this whole piece of trash. No plot, hammy dialog, a few jumps (but any movie can accomplish those with the proper music and a quick cut to a frightening image) but basically a 4 hour empty shell. This isn't just re-hash...it's re-hashed re-hash. This plodding snorer could EASILY have been pared down to 90-120 minutes. Even at that length, I suspect I'd have been bored, at 4 hours...I'm still not sure why I kept watching. After investing three hours, I was hoping something in the end might redeem it. Nope. By the way, I've read a few of the reviews here and I'm finding it hilarious that some people are treating this as non fiction, just because ABC aired a silly 30 minute ""documentary"" to hype the upcoming mini-series."
+5627,1,difficult,IT was difficult to adjust the openings. It just screws together and you loosen or tighten it to adjust for kibble size. Our dogs were able to take it apart very fast and eat everything inside and move on.
+5628,1,Kitchen Boy,The story is obviously fiction written to seem like a true story. I found the ending contrived. It was required reading for a reading club. Sorry I bought it and wasted so much time.
+5629,1,Have you got the online docs ? (err.. yes),"I don't like slating books so I am not about to start.PostgreSQL Essential Reference is not bad. If it actually contained more details, fuller explanations, more or better examples than the docs that come free with postgres then it would be well worth having. As such, IMHO it actually offers less for the most part.I am really trying to find a place for this on someone's book shelf. If you are a beginner and don't have access to the online docs then you might find something here. If not I would heartily recommend Bruce Momjian's online (or printed) work as a companion to the original potgreSQL manual"
+5630,1,"If you love symbolic logic, you'll love this book","I bought this book hoping to get ammunition to use in arguments with theists. I found the book to be useless for that purpose: the arguments are too abstruse for general use. If you are a professional philosopher well versed in symbolic logic, this will be just the book for you. For lay people, though, it is tough sledding and, in the end, not very interesting."
+5631,1,Waste of Money!,"I purchased this drawer unit along with several other cubes from the same manufacturer. Most of the items were fine and fairly simple to assemble, but this piece was just awful. I never could make the cheap plastic drawer slides fit properly. After over an hour I gave up, disposed of the drawers, and purchased a fabric drawer to use in the cube. Unfortunately the drawer cube was about twice the price of an open cube, which was what I ended up with since this was impossible to assemble.Don't waste your money on this piece!"
+5632,2,Great Christmas CD By Brenda Lee !,"Brenda Lee makes it Christmas for me.With her mature raspy voice I just love the style and way she does these songs.A nice addition to her original 1964 Christmas album available as The Best Of Brenda Lee The Christmas Collection.Particular favorites are,Rockin'Around The Christmas Tree',Santa Claus Is Coming To Town,Go Tell It On The Mountain,Silver Bells,Let It Snow ! Let It Snow ! Let It Snow !,and Have Yourself A Merry little Christmas.These are all recorded in the 1990's so are not the younger voiced Brenda Lee.I love them because they offer a difference from the l960's Brenda Lee recordings.Brenda Lee fans will love this CD !"
+5633,1,Heads up,This is an HD DVD that can only be played on older equipment. Think of buying a Betamax tpe nowadays expecting it to work on the old VCR. Not going to happen. Shame on these guys.D.
+5634,2,"Good, key action could be better",This is a pretty decent basic keyboard. I only wish the key action were better. It feels cheap and getting any sort of nuance out of it is difficult for at least me.
+5635,1,FEMA Manual written as a novel,"You know when an author has exhausted his genre when the entire naval climax takes less than a page and a half, and details on how the Eastern seaboard is evacuated takes over 30 pages. I can't tell you how delighted I was in skipping entire pages where Robinson just goes on and on about how Washington DC was being cleared of its treasures. I am so glad I got this book for the low, low price of $0.80 (not including shipping). This book is only slightly more palatable than a day old burger sitting in the heating tray at your local fast food burger joint. Hmmm... its a close call. Maybe I should have paid more attention to those 30 pages."
+5636,1,Solid card but lousy signal,"I had a Dell TrueMobile card in my Dell laptop, but my wife kept bending the big antenna sticking out, to the point of it almost breaking. I saw this card and thought ""what a great idea!"" and ordered it. My signal strength went from EXCELLENT to POOR. And get this, my router is about 6 feet away through a wood floor. If I move the laptop off my lap and out around my knees, I get a GOOD signal, but a laptop is made for, well, laps.Well made card but lousy implementation of design. I doubt you will be happy."
+5637,1,"Good content, poor binding.","The content of this book was exactly what I needed for my biblical archaeology class. BUT, the binding broke on my book before I ever finished reading it. The glue is very poor."
+5638,1,not for that price!,all this book does is explain the rules. it might be rare (?) but in my expert opionion it is no way worth more than a couple of dollars. the seller should be ashamed.
+5639,1,Not worth it!,"By far some of the worst acting I've ever seen - the little girl seemed to be casted off the street, clearly no acting experience and over acts all her lines. The little boy is okay, the adults are the best part. Don't waste your time on this one."
+5640,2,Now that I've grown up...,"Now that I've grown up, I can appreciate this movie for the phenomenon that it was! This DVD presents the movie in a more sharper and clearer picture than before...it was produced in 1978. I must have been about 8 or 9 when I saw it and never understood the beauty of it. Being a little girl, I always preferred Judy Garland's verion of The Wizard of Oz. Now that I'm a 31 year-old adult, I can really appreciate the urban version of The Wizard of Oz. With Diana Ross as Dorothy, Michael Jackson as the Scarecrow, and Nipsey Russel as the Tinman, this movie should have won an Oscar. I highly recommend it."
+5641,2,Nice,"This product is fine for its intended purposes. I took it to Africa for outdoor church conferences and from what i hear, it is not a let down. The only thing that we struggled with was the power adaptor from 120v to 240voltsThanks"
+5642,1,greatest hits,I was a little disappointed in the content of CD. There are some great songs on there but I feel that Whitney had so many great songs that should have been included
+5643,1,What?,I am very glad I rented this first. I thought it would be good...judging by the good rating. But this game is BY FAR the worst game cube game I've played.
+5644,2,Retractable Dog leash,"Sturdy for our Springer Spaniels. Works well, retracts easily, haven't had any problems with it. Feels comfortable in the hand."
+5645,1,"That Cat's Not Roaring, It's Yawning!...","Horror icon Donald Pleasence (Halloween 1 and 2, Raw Meat, Alone In The Dark) is big-game hunter extraordinaire, Axel McGregor in this non-creepy, sleep-inducer. McGregor is so obsessed w/ a man-eating black leopard, that he has it captured and brought to his private island so he can hunt it. All is well until McGregor's family (including the lovely Nancy Kwan) pays a surprise visit, unaware of the danger they're in. Unfortunately, what could / should have been a tense, ferocious story of survival is actually a bland test of endurance (for the viewer). It was hard to keep my eyes open..."
+5646,1,Don't bother!,"Don't bother buying this card if you have an Athlon. This card crashes TRIBES incessantly. It even causes problems right when the GUI kicks in for Windows 98. This card is fine if all you do is play Quake III. Don't even attempt to play a Glide game on this. Save your money and stick with the real leader, 3dfx."
+5647,1,"Old fond paradoxes, to make fools laugh...","Wall covers oft-trodden ground here and offers little more than a tormented, navel-gazing faux-academic hero to pursue the well-worn conundrum of the Shakespearean authorship ""question"" -- which is only a question for conspiracy theorists who don't find the intricacies of real history interesting enough. This theme has been much more entertainingly addressed by Michael Malone, George Garrett, Charles Nicholl, Peter Whelan, and many more."
+5648,2,Must Have,"Look- i assume that because you are looking at Big Thing on the site that you have some interest in the product so lets start there. This release is a great remaster and collected edition of this under appreciated LP. I was a huge fan of the original release and own all the singles and product available for Duran and this album that being said, i still was looking forward to this release because everything from this whole era of the band is included single versions, remixes, promos, and of course the videos, a unreleased show from the era is additionally available on itunes for the hard-core Durannies out there. There are even a couple of never released things here to sweeten the purchase a little. I buy alot of these remastered releases and the quality of the Duran series is outstanding. I only hope EMI continues the series into Liberty and through Thank You if only for the archival like quality of the packages. If you are looking then this one is a must have!!!!"
+5649,1,The quality of the songs is excellent...but a waste of money if you already have the collection of CD's,Look....dont be just another fool parted with their hard earned money.....if you already have the cd's....of all the music THE BEATLES released.....you're either a chump...or your bankroll exceeds your common sense....I love THE BEATLES...but am sick of all the same material being duplicated to death....just anoth marketing hoax to keep the bucks flowing in
+5650,1,Not very useful,This book gives a very vague description of each area. I would not start climbing routes based on the description provided. Not all directions to climbing areas are correct. I did a cross country trip in August 2010 and thought this book would be a great resource...I WAS WRONG. Save yourself some money and do some internet research on possible climbing locations for areas you will be visiting.
+5651,2,A great steak rub,"The title says it all, this is a great addition to any meat that goes on the grill. Makes it much easier to keep up with all the lies being told by your friends while you're cooking ! ! !"
+5652,2,We Did It,My husband and I decided to have our 6th child and since we were already blessed with 5 beautiful girls we wanted to increase our odds of having a boy this time. We purchased this book and charted my cycle for four months. Everything was so easy and explained so well it was harder to remember to take my temperature than to keep track of it.I am happy to report that we are now 20 weeks pregnant and expecting our first boy!!!!!Thank you.
+5653,2,Little Lord Fauntleroy,This classic should be read by everybody especially children. It is a great story about kindness andhow to think of others. A parent should read this to every child before they go to bed.
+5654,2,I should be able to rate this album with more than 5 stars.,"I should be allowed to use more than 5 stars to rate this album - one of the finest albums, of any style, I have ever heard. Kind of Blue should be required listening for any student, music or otherwise."
+5655,1,a biography or hit job?,"Pure scathing wrath unleashed on this woman. The author was clearly one-sided, and most likely a Republican, or paid by someone to grind an ax. Not one redeeming quality, gesture, act, thought or statement was attributed to Hillary, as if she wasn't even human. That's not a biography, that's a hit job. The author even goes as far as suggesting Chelsea's existence is politically motivated. The book is such an unrelenting, merciless rant that it fails to achieve any level of credibility."
+5656,2,Lasted for three years of heavy use,"We had a lot of old movies, family things etc to put on disk so wanted a multi-purpose unit to play films on and record. Loved this item for the three years it lasted. Fast load, great recording, a regular little work horse. No complaints until it began to have trouble - the door refused to work then this or that. So, a terrific item but a bit low on the long term durability. Have had three since that don't come near the ease and convenience of this one..."
+5657,2,2-1/2-Year-Old Loves It,"Our 2-1/2-year old son loves this toy. He loves bouncing around the house and quickly mastered it. It's a little small for him, but he's near the maxiumum age and he's also big for his size. The design is really cute. He loves talking to it, and keeps it near his bed at night. The construction is very durable (at least the membrane is very thick and appears nearly puncture proof)."
+5658,1,Poker Countdown Tournament Timer,My artificial intelligent computer was tired of all the 'Mickey Mouse' (children's) Poker/chess games and Poker Countdown Tournament was one 'she' selected.
+5659,1,Problem With These Discs,"Is anyone else having issues with these discs? When you first place the discs in the player, it skips over the main menus. Then the ""menu"" button will only start and stop the episode selected, but it will not return you to the main menu. There is no Spanish or Portuguese dubbed audio on the discs (despite what the menus and packaging claim) and the episodes automatically play with Spanish subtitles even when the subtitles are turned ""off."" The only way to avoid this is to choose ""other"" subtitles with the remote. This appears to be an authoring issue, as I am using a two year-old Sony Dream System DVD player and have not had these issues with previous seasons. I'm exchanging my discs immediately, but I have a feeling they might all be bad. Anyone else hear about these issues?"
+5660,2,My cat loved this!,"My cat hasn't shown much interest in the television, but when we put this 60-minute video in, she was incredibly attentive for at least 55 minutes. She even looked upset when we turned it off. You'll enjoy the video too, as it contains lovely stories of wonderful cats doing extraordinary things, such as saving lives (human and feline) and travelling a hundred miles to find their human family. Great for any cat-lover: young, old or furry."
+5661,1,Does Not Deliver What It Promises,"I would not recommend this book for people who are trying to get their life together after a diagnosis of diabetes. I bought this book because its subtitle is ""A Complete Guide to Planning, Shopping, Cooking, and Eating"". It is none of those things.I was particularly interested in the SHOPPING promise because I find that to be the most difficult part of managing my diet. Other books didn't have anything helpful, and despite its promise, this book doesn't either. One has to read through every single recipe, write down the ingredients of what you want to make, and then go out and get it. Just like every other book. So tell me: how does this help with ""shopping""? I expected lists of basic staples in a diabetic's diet. There should be lists of ""must-haves"" for your pantry. This book lies about what it contains, and is sadly lacking in what it needs.An expensive mistake, don't buy it."
+5662,1,DON'T BUY!!!! Only gets 1 star bc you have to rate it to post review,"The price went down .25 since I bought it 14 days ago bc they are cheaply made and DON'T work! Even though I will be losing almost half of what I paid, I'm returning it."
+5663,1,Cute story with difficult vocabulary for kids,"This book, set in Paris in late December follows a hobo named Armand, who's gruff on the outside, but reveals his inner warmth when he finds a newly homeless family living under ""his"" bridge. While this book does have many good points, this isn't a book I would recommend. The story would be very entertaining to a fifth grader but the vocabulary skills and difficulty understanding Paris or gypsies would frustrate a reader in this age group. A sixth grader, however, would more easily comprehend the vocabulary (I admit that I didn't know many of the words and had to guess at their meaning in context--and I don't consider my vocabulary skills poor by any means) and cultural situations but they would be bored by the simplistic story. In all, I would not recommend it not because it is a bad book, but because I think there are better choices out there."
+5664,1,dissapointment,"terrible, dvd is not working properly, everything is in german, very disappointed with content as well, picture quality was the only one good thing"
+5665,1,Only 2 tests on the strips!,"there are only 2 tests on the strips - glucose and protien.this, unfortunately, is not what I needed.I will stick with the more costly Bayer strips with 10 tests."
+5666,2,Utopia science fiction made special by Sturgeon,"The Cosmic Rape (""To Marry Medusa"" is the short story from which it was expanded) tells the story of a wandering space conquerer who is shocked to discover that humans, unlike any other race it had ever known, did not have a group mind. Convinced that this is how it's meant to be, Medusa enlists the help of a born loser to put all the brainwaves back together again.The Cosmic Rape is one of these utopia vision sci-fi novels that seemed to populate the late 50s/early 60s. Sturgeon is a fine writer, and his recognizable style makes it immediately much more than the sum of its parts. The characters are grubbily and wonderfully real, even if the plot can't always say the same for itself.Recommended for fans of science fiction writing of the period, and for fans of Sturgeon."
+5667,1,Disappointing,"I returned this product - it heats up - that's one good thing but the whirlpool feature is VERY loud and doesn't seem to do much either.Perhaps if I watched TV while using it, but I don't watch TV at all."
+5668,1,A good book for a novice christian!,"The Christian Atheist is a book that, for the most part, talks to men and women of God about living their life in faith that God exists. He discusses several situations in which many Christians live as though they don't believe in God. I have to say that this book is well written and the author did a good job and bringing it down to the level of the ""normal"" person. But with that being said, I gave this book one star because, in my opinion, he ""dumbed"" it down too much. As I read this book, I found it to be a waste of my time (but maybe not yours). I thought that his ideas were solid, but underdeveloped. In addition, I felt that this book was marketed to every Christian, but only effective for the novice Christian."
+5669,2,Unlikely Partners on a Great Adventure,"A terrific fiction picture book that is certainly an unlikely story--that's why it's enjoyable. It's hard to tell who the main character is: A traveling Eugene, who lives in ""Dismal,"" North Dakota, or a companionable parrot (eventually) named Lenny. This more-intelligent bird accepts Eugene more than the other way around...until near the end of the story. Their adventures are nothing but rediculously funny and somewhat endearing. Early elementary students seem to love this book.[...]"
+5670,2,AWESOME,GREAT GAME. THE WHOLE FAMILY LOVES IT. LOVE THE GRAPHICS AND ALL THE SHOOTING. HIGHLY RECOMMMEND IT. FUN TO PLAY.
+5671,1,Garbage,"Bought this from a dept. store. $25 I'll never get back. Will not fly! Tried adjusting the bridle numerous times. Nothing. The spreader hardware was cheap and was bending, near breaking apart just from regular assembly. Do not buy. Spend a little more and get something from a strictly kite company."
+5672,1,OK for the price,I got this to replace another inexpensive coby DVD player for a workshop. This one is fair. Very slow response time. From one to two seconds to act when buttons are pushed. It came with an unsightly sticker from the manufacturer applied on the top regarding troubleshooting. Very flimsy construction on both the unit and remote. Probably won't last long.
+5673,2,Sweet Music,This album reminds me of my college years during which this was published. The tunes are nostalgic for me. I like them.
+5674,2,Improvise by Mick Napier,"A decent book that gives different types of ideologies for Improvisation. The book is pretty much 100% opinion but I still enjoyed the author's insightful observations and ""solutions"" to repetitive improv habits.Worth the money."
+5675,2,good read,"simply written, follows a lot of characters but you can keep them all straight. some of the characters are unbelievably lucky. good info if you're taking notes. borrowed it to friends and they enjoy it."
+5676,2,Great Physics High School Text,"I used this book to study for the AP Physics B exam on my own, and thanks to it, I was able to score a 5. Good book for people who don't have previous Physics experience."
+5677,2,THE ONLY LOTION I USE ON MY CHILDREN,I cannot rave enough about this product. The lotion isn't greasy but still seems to keep her skin moisturized all day. The scent is the best part. I love it so much. I use this everyday on my little one and I get a ton of compliments on how 'clean' she smells. I even use it for myself occasionally. If you are looking for a great shower gift this is it! I always give the newborn starter kit. It is always a hit. The products are so gentle which is a nice change from the horrible J&J products.
+5678,1,Beware!,"I bought one of these cat boxes about 5 years ago and loved it. So when that one wore out, I bought a fancier self-cleaning cat box - it didn't work, and I returned it. So I bought the original self-clening cat box thinking it would work just fine - well it did for about a week, and then just stopped working. So now I'm scooping a $70.00 cat box each day....Not a good thing.:-("
+5679,2,Has to be read to be disbelieved.,"You know that ""truth is stranger than fiction"" because fiction is limited by our imagination. Here, author Epstein, provides a captivating biography of Armand Hammer - a con's con. Hammer pulled ""all the stops"" in a brazen existence of deception that is way beyond what can be imagined by all but the most cunning connivers. Crossing even blood and family members, Epstein's true chronicle of Hammer far surpasses anything of the mass media fictional yarns or true, related stories of the same ilk. Exceptionally well-written and very difficult to put down: most readers will find Hammer's m.o. incredulous and not being able to wait to see what happens next. In short, a great biography and required reading for sensitizing to business hypocrisy."
+5680,1,No understanding of the Catholic Church,The author displays a complete disregard for the teachings of the Catholic Church (either pre-Vatican II or post-Vatican II)and instead offers recycled stereotypical nonsense of Catholicism offered by the same pseudo-religious Protestant preachers who seek to discredit the Church.One might actually gain a better knowledge of the Catholic Church by reading:a) The Bibleb) The Catechism of the Catholic Church(Something that the author of this book has obviously not done)
+5681,2,Full of Wisdom and Entertaining!,"I really enjoyed this book. It is simple and honest about a subject that I didn't realize until I read it, was a problem for most people concerning change. I don't understand how anyone could ""not"" love this book, if not for any other reason but to teach their children about this valuable lesson in life. I plan to read it to all my friends, for something different to do other than watching TV. I have not been disappointed by any of Spencer Johnson's books thus far including the ValueTales book set."
+5682,1,Just did not work,"I read the mixed reviews about this item and decided to give it a try.First the positive: It looks stylishNow the negative: It just does not workI connected the Terk antenna to my HD FM receiver, hoping to improve reception in my basement, where I can't hardly get any HD stations at all. Well, the Terk antenna did not do anything for me here. OK, I thought, if there is no signal at all, the Terk antenna can't do much. Next I connected the Terk to my HD receiver in my living room. Here, the standard wire antenna gives me a decent signal and I can find HD stations. Not with the Terk! Reception was far worse than with the passive wire antenna. I played around with gain control and moved the antenna around - to no avail. Item is already boxed for return."
+5683,1,"Sharp metal pieces, not really fiesta 'Plum' in color...","I received this flatware set today and opened it to find it matched my fiesta heather plates perfectly, but was not dark like fiesta plum dishes are. There were also some sharp metal edges peaking out from the end caps near the base of a spoon and a fork. I have 5 other colors of this type of flatware that match the stated color perfectly - so I will try another order in case these ones were just marked wrong. If they arrive without the sharp edges, I'll live with the shade problem if it's still apparent."
+5684,2,excellent quality study bibles,The Max Lucado Inspirational Study Bible is the best. I am very happy with all my orders.I`ve ordered 12 of these so my bible study ladies can have one. I wanted a better biblestudy book & I was referred to this bible. So much great insites for the reader. Reallyopens ones eyes to the word of God. I rate this a 5 star.
+5685,1,Disappointing,"Disappointing. When I first bought this book, I thought it was going to be on the underground market/economy. I found out that it was not the only subject covered. Since this book covers more than one subject, each subject is only superficially covered. Fast Food Nation is much more deeply researched and is definitly a must have ""Bible"" on the subject matter. Reefer Madness is a book to forget quickly. Don't waste your money on it and let's hope that Schlosser's next book will be better."
+5686,2,Classic silky tone,"Easy to instal with simple black and white wireing. Sounds great, classic strat tone and then some. I used it in my neck position for a vintage replacement but got more than I hoped for. Excellent pickup for replacing or new guitar project. The output and tonal quality was high, and the price was low, thanx Dimarzio!!!"
+5687,1,"over all, I didn't like it",interesting but poor written book - most events didn't seem real and and some events seems to be taken from other aurthors work.
+5688,2,I made money with this book!,"I actually made money in Las Vegas after reading this book! Did I get rich..NO, but making a few hundred dollars made me feel like a million bucks! Card counting is easy especially if you go to the ""beginners"" tables they have at some casinos where the dealers don't make small talk to try and distract you while you are playing. You can beat the house sometimes and it is just plain fun to learn a system and use it effectively. The real key is to know when to quite and don't spend more than 45 minutes at a table or you start to get fatigued from the concentration required to do this."
+5689,1,useless - throw away your money,This product does not help plantar faciitis. There is no cushioning and the sides of the cup easily roll under your heel.You might as well stuff your money into your shoe. Then at least you would still have your money. The only WONDER of this product is that it is being manufactured and offered as a solution for anything. Total JUNK.
+5690,1,No chemistry,"It is really sad when you get your expectations up with a new Ivan Reitman comedy only to be bitterly dissapointed by it. There is a hardly any chemistry between the two protaganists (Portman and Kutcher). All we get is a bawdy comedy with a slow moving story. Kevin Kline is simply wasted. Just oh dear, yawn."
+5691,2,its good!,its good!! i have one and have used it a lot. take it on trips specially if you are going to grand canyon
+5692,1,Factory problem?,I bought this brand new and sealed but three of the discs are clearly sub-standard with scratches and fingerprints; how can that happen? The result is that 5-6 shows are unwatchable.
+5693,1,Died,"Unit just died, same story as everyone else, power still active but no display. This is really a poor quality product that Polaroid should recall before their name becomes worthless."
+5694,2,Love it!!,A great yoga workout. I have never done yoga before and was a little hesitant that I would get bored. But this video is great. You are doing yoga stretches and constantly moving as well. I would really recommend to try this video is your interested in trying yoga.
+5695,1,There are better Hdmi cables that won't break the bank!!!!,"Okay simply put I purchased three HDMI cables: a Sony HDMI cable from Walmart, an Accel from [...] and this cable(All of which I interchanged on my PS3 to determine the best picture quality available from the three). Now of the three cables the Sony was the best of all I noticed the most definition with this cable. The Accel was pretty decent as well but lacked as much detail as the sony, but with this cable there is a picture and that's about it. I notice how this cable cant handle blu-ray well its too much data for this cable to keep up with which made colors look slightly off(they say its all 1's and 0's but I think this one's missing a couple.....hundred.....thousand of em)worst hdmi cable in my opinion. Do your self a favor and get a decent(not cheap)hdmi cable that wont break the bank!!!![...]"
+5696,2,Herbal Medicine Bible,"I've never seen another book on herbal medicine that is as exhaustive and comprehensive as this one. It oges to far as to illustrate the active biochemical components of the different herbal elements. The book is orgainized based on the different body systems. It describes how to identify the compounds and their souces. For anyone serious about herbal medicine this book is an essential addition for a professional library.I organize an international conference -- The Winter Brain, Optimal Functioning and Positive Psychology meeting that routinely includes lectures on herbal medicine. This book will be very well received by our professional attendees."
+5697,1,DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY,"It is a great idea to combine the portable USB 128 mb memory with a portable MP3 player. However, Creative LAB has failed to look at the obvious little details.1. The USB 128 mb memory is not plug and play, this is totally unacceptable when most/all 128mb USB memory stick are plug and play in the industry.2. The MP3 cradle gets hot when you leave your battery in it. Of course you can always take the battery out then it will cool down, but you won't be able to use it.3. The battery slot cover is very poorly made that is difficult to close. You have to fiddle with it to get properly aligned in order to close the cover. ...this is not worth it. I returned it after 3 days."
+5698,1,Really Didn't Like it,"I've read Ms. Quick before (have almost all of her books)and this book is not up to her standards. The characters are annoying and dull. Lavinia, the lead female character, comes off as almost desperate and Tobias is arrogant and officious---I really disliked him.If you're interested in some great Amanda Quick novels, try ""Surrender"" or ""Reckless"" or ""Scandal"" or any other novel she wrote BEFORE she embarked on this detective series."
+5699,1,Inaccurate with too much personal angst,I did not like this book as a guide to the camino although many may find it interesting to read before or after walking. Directions were vague and inaccurate in several spots. A couple of times I wondered if the author had ever even been there. Some spots were detailed too much and other sections were skipped over. Not a dependable directional guide.Very much about the author's personal journey with some interest from that perspective.
+5700,1,So far no problems,"The unit bought through Amazon is working fine so far; however, a previous one bought through another web site broke in less than a year. Getting in touch with customer service was a piece of work, and having to send the unit back to California without being reimbursed for shipping cost, it is quite disappointing. Lesson learned from this: buy the dehumidifier from a local store, because what is saved at the beginning it will be spent when having to ship the unit back to the company's service location."
+5701,1,Tried to like it....,"I really tried to like this book. I read over 1/2 of it before giving up. The main character got on my nerves. Every decision is a moral dilemma, it's amazing the woman can leave her house. The character was hard to like and seemed very weird, like she should be on meds. I got tired of her and the characters that didn't seem to fit in the story (the Italian and the niece's ex-boyfriend). I've tried to read the author's lady detective agency books and now realize that his writing is not for me."
+5702,1,Don't make my mistake.,"I bought this saw as a compromise between the Makita level saws and the ten dollar junk. I should have spent the extra money and bought a Dewalt, Makita or Hitachi. The power level is ok, but cutting a straight line is a roll of the dice. Even when I use a speed square as a straight edge I get cuts that are not 90 degrees. The other problem is that the base plate will not stay perpendicular to the blade and the wheel to tighten it is in a terrible location and hard to use.This is without a doubt the worst powertool I have ever bought and I will be replacing it in the next month."
+5703,1,Dishonest business practices,"I installed Stopzilla after reading a review that said it was free and downloading it from their website which said it was free. After reporting that it found some Trojans, the program said I had to upgrade for $9.95 to fix them. I did this, but my credit card was charged $39.95. I called Stopzilla about the overcharge and they said they would issue a $30 refund. The refund never showed up.They also automatically signed me up for their ""customer protection"" program which will charge me $39.95 every year. I had to call to cancel that."

+5705,1,Malouma,"If you have any interest in Mauritanian music or good music for that matter, I would redirect you to either of Dimi Mint Abba's recordings. She is indescribably more potent than Malouma. This disc is basically a second rate western pop attempt from a music culture with much more to offer. The only particularly rewarding feature of this record is the quite amusing cover of Otis Redding's Fa Fa Fa (sad song) and the lyrics which were translated into Hassanija abd back into English in the liner notes. Reading Otis brought through calssaical Arabic might be worth the purchase price. Get Dimi Mint Abba her recordings are 5 star stunning"
+5706,1,not worth the read,"I bought this book based on the fact that the Haven TV show is loosely based on it. Boy was I disappointed. Only thing I can see it copies is the two old newspaper men. Besides that let down, the mystery in the book is never solved. As far as I am concerned, this was a totally bad purchase."
+5707,1,Components broke down after less than a year,"Components broke down after less than a year. I purchased this product less than a year ago, the charge controller stopped working today. I will be purchasing a more robust charge controller and would recommend the same advise to those with similar problems to mine."
+5708,2,Fantastic film BUT DVD Lacks...,"For those of you who haven't seen Tangled yet, it Is a must-have Film, and destined to be a true Disney classic. My only problem with the DVD is the lack of special features. The only features on the disc other than the movie itself, is an alternate penciled intro. All of the other bonus features such as the behind the scenes and such is on the Blu-ray. So beware."
+5709,1,terrible,"We have two sliding glass doors that our 3 year old can open easily. I thought this was the perfect solution. However, the ""lock"" popped off the first time he tried to open it! I followed the directions exactly for installation- but the adhesive was not strong enough. I thought about using super glue but I don't want to ruin the door forever. Don't waste your money----- Now searching for another lock!!"
+5710,1,review,Weird movie. hard to follow. turned it off after 20min because I just couldn't take it anymore. I would recommend looking for a different movie.
+5711,2,If only it had flash exposure lock...,"An excellent camera. The small size and weight make it easy to take with you. Even though it is small, I found the grip to be comfortable. Good performance, and at an excellent price point. Flash sync of 1/500th makes life easier on your flash when doing fill-flash on a sunny day.The only reason it doesn't get five stars is the lack of flash exposure lock. This is where you can fire the preflash and lock the exposure values, so when you press the shutter it doesn't have to preflash. My wife blinks quickly, so every shot has her eyes closed. My solution was to get an SB-800 flash that can use an Auto-Aperture flash mode that doesn't need preflash, which works beautifully. It would have been nice to just use flash exposure lock, though. Other than that, though, I'm very pleased with this camera."
+5712,2,At Last Some Good Answers,"Have you ever asked some of life's most important questions and gotten explanations that really didn't make sense? Well, I have and that's why I love this book. This author doesn't just chew the fat about some classic philosophical topics. She offers you REAL answers. She has keen insight into the tools a person needs to really have peace of mind in this world.A person need not be of any particular faith to gain substantial understanding of how God has set things up both this world and in heaven. Anyone who reads this book with a sincere heart and an open mind will find some precious jewels here. For enhancing one's journey in life, I couldn't recommend any book more."
+5713,1,This game is just so-so,"I'm a big, big fan of George A. Romero's movies and the zombie genre, so I was happy to find a game with a true zombie plot line. But, I was disappointed. I guess it was my fault for expecting much from a video game from a movie. I should have known to expect very little, and that's what I got. The graphics are mediocre, the sound is O.K., the action is simple, the AI is almost non-existent, the gameplay is basically walking through a giant maze and shooting stuff. I can compliment the ""feel"" of the game, as it was creepy and there were a couple of times when I actually jumped. But it took me less than 5 hours to finish the game on High difficulty. Not quite worth the $20 I spent."
+5714,2,This Game Rocks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!,This game rules i got it just last week and im in yamiyugi already if your the ultimate dueler or gamer this is the game it heck rules but if your impatient be careful it can be annoying
+5715,1,Entertaining but not great,"i don't want to rip on the author. it was a fun story. I suspect there are thousands of pilots out there who have better stories and more interesting experiences than jackson but he is just the guy who actually found a ghost writer to sit down and put his stuff in book form.It just seems like this was mostly about sitting around the camp and complaining about how bad things were when, as the author acknowledges, they had it infinitely better than anybody else in vietnam except for the pencil pushers.If you are interested in Vietnam, there are many, nay more books I would recommend reading before I read this one. Matterhorn is a great recent piece of fiction which is spot on. bright, shining lie is also a great one as is Unfortunate Son.Jackson is a little to self-involved for my taste. He tries to be humble in this book - genuinely tries but ends up failing. Just not a lot here sorry to say."
+5716,1,Hoover Filter,Only comment is that the filter fits too loosely in the 'mesh' holder. Still works though!Construction seems similar to an OEM. Like having a spare filter and this one is relatively inexpensive.To save $$$ on these filters I blow them out after every use with my shop air compressor!Joe
+5717,1,Mark Batson is an evil genius,"The fault with this album is its producer, Mark Baston who is known for his work with pop starslike Beyonce and 50 Cent. He admittedly played a very hand with regards to the production of this album. The net result is the loss of the DMB sound fans expect to hear.Beyond producing, Batson actually PLAYS on virtually every track. His re-engineering of DMB is just awful. The songs from the 2004 tour showed so much promise and only one made it to Stand-Up,'Hello Again.' Sadly, Batson insinuates his instrument, the organ at the expense of the violin and sax.DMB's drummer is arguably their most talented musician and his drumming sounds as if it could be duplicated by a drum machine.I am saddened and rather disappointed. Dave said in an interview last year that the bands last best album was ""Before These Crowded Streets,"" I have to agree."
+5718,1,Hannity = Hitler = Musolini,"I read this in about two hours - a book can really be an easy read when the author is a simpleton. Hannity uses the hate and racism that conservatives used to use openly and has done a good job of hiding it behind a thin veil. ""Liberals"" are yesterday's ""N_____ Lovers,"" or similar hate slang. It's almost worse now than it was in the early 60's because nowadays, many followers of these hatemongers don't realize just what it is their following. It's disgusting and all this book does is reinforce my position that, for the world to become safe again, people like Hannity, Limbaugh, Savage and their ilk must go."
+5719,1,primitive harmony,"I live on a diet of interesting rhythm and harmony, though my music theory is not that advanced. I love bebopp and this music is so un-complex as to boor me to the point of turning it off after a few songs. i have never made it through the album and that is rare for me. The fidelity is good but cannot redeem it."
+5720,2,A Beautiful Hammock,This has got to be the most beautiful and comfortable hammock that is made. It is just dripping with southern charm. This hammock will make any yard look wonderful. I should also mention that it is very comfortable. Just get lost in the beauty and comfort of this truly special hommock.
+5721,1,unsientific debunked treatment,"I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. So-called ""Reparative therapy"" has been completely debunked, and the American Psychological Association has come out with a statement to that effect. A large number of people who have been harmed by this misguided unscientific practice, and there is an increased suicide rate among it's survivors. To use these methods is to risk harm to your clients and to open yourself up to litigation for malpractice, for which your clients will have a solid case."
+5722,2,The Dogs Love These,"We have two dogs, a lab mix and a pug. They both devour these and I like to give them these treats since they are actually good for them and don't contain a lot of preservatives. These are moist treats, which I think the dogs find more appealing than the dry ones."
+5723,2,Time tested best teaching tool ever,"I found this series/package ~15 years ago and think it was the single best training series I ever found. I dropped my handicap by at least 15 strokes and understood more about the game than with any other aid I've ever used.The reviewer who said it was complicated may have a point, but this series gives correct/proven methods and no bad ones.Combine this with Harvey Penicks Little Red Book and beat your golf buddies like a drum."
+5724,1,"Not level, laser doesn't work","I just got this yesterday, and am returning it today. The first time I turned it on, the laser beam was on for a couple seconds, then disappeared. I cannot get it to come back on. I have switched the batteries, and still, nothing. The leveling backlight comes on, but not the projected laser.Also, this thing is so not level. If I line it up to where zero would be (if it were marked), it is about 5 degrees away from being level."
+5725,1,Juvenile.,"Maybe an andolescent boy would find this author and this book in particular worthwhile reading. Even if you aspire to be a drunk and a lout, this tiresome book would still not be inspirational. I enjoyed London Fields by same author, even though I thought he may have lifted the idea from Muriel Sparks' The Driver's Seat; but Money was a complete waste of time. After 100 pages or so, I didn't see the possibility of any further character development or improvement in the writing style. I didn't bother finishing it."
+5726,1,Short- Charged,Does not hold a charge more than two days on standby. It does not work aswell as the original battery. But the price was right.
+5727,1,not quite the vulgar boatmen,Not the best renditions of Russian folk tunes. Sounds like they were sung by locals - not necessarily singers.
+5728,2,Another fantastic Radiohead album,"Radiohead are easily one of the more influential bands to come out intact from the 1990s. I'm sure everyone has heard of OK Computer, it had an amazing impact upon music as a whole, making the Top 5 of almost every 'greatest album ever' lists for years.Kid A and Amnesiac followed, and while they were good, they didn't achieve the heights of OK Computer, being too full of experimental electronic music and lyrically rambling. Good albums, but not as accessible as OK Computer.Enter Hail to the Thief. Not as experimental as the previous two, nor as ambitious as OK Computer, it lies comfortable between OK Computer and The Bends. The album actually has guitars in it this time, which is definitely a welcome addition. While it *does* occassionally suffer from a bit of Thom Yorke rambling, the album is a very good listen even the first time, but it has enough subtleties to keep you enthralled for weeks and months to come."
+5729,1,"This felt ""forced"" And that IS a Jedi pun.","I really enjoyed the ""Hand of Thrawn"" series by Timothy Zahn. I was raised on the Star Wars movies but before Zahn I had never read any quality Star Wars based fiction. That being said, this is the worst book by Zahn that I have read. The story arc is flat, the characters are caricatures of the already repetitive Zahn stock models of: Jedi, Smuggler, Military Genius, Devious Political Agent, etc. This is not worth reading unless you are a Zahn fanatic and need to get your next fix; if that applies to you then I suggest you get help."
+5730,1,Crap,"Hip Hop now is in a state of redunacy where everyone is rapping about money, cars, ice and hos. Granted, Eminem is not rapping about these trivial matters, but how often can we hear about his problems with his mom, ex wife and so forth? This album is a recycle of previous work, yet people praise him for being innovative."
+5731,2,its entertaining trust me,I wasn't really a huge fan of the 1st film but i gotta say part 2 is way better. It has way more going on and it kept me interested throughout.

Highly recommended."
+5734,2,absolutely amazing.,"You don't have to be Chinese, or half chinese for that matter.At first I had doubts about this book, Kwan the Chinese sister, seemed to crazy for me. But I soon learned that that's what makes this book even more stunningly beautiful. Libby's views on life, love, family, and everything in between made me dogear a lot of the pages on this book. This book made me chuckle, think, and learn. Page turner, HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!"
+5735,2,Great Sequel,"TThis sequel to Phantom of the Opera. It was a darker story than Phantom but well done. The songs, however were'nt as memerable. But all in all a good musical."
+5736,1,hmm,i actually did not like this as the type is faded in some parts. i had no clue this book was from the 1800's either! it is a little wordy but im sure that it has very authentic explanations as it has not really been revised. so if you are looking for authentic get this but if not then don't. personally the wordiness and type turned me off
+5737,1,It is rugged. Functions intermittently; practically useless,"Plus notes - It is well constructed and installation went fast.Then I plugged in brand new batteries and followed the programming steps.It took hours of repeated tries, removing the batteries overnight, and trying different brand of fresh from the package batteries.Finally it worked, so I called my wife over to show her how to unlock and lock our garage door, and it would not work.Again I pulled out the batteries and left it overnight. The next afternoon I plugged the batteries in, and it worked in both directions - lock and unlock. My wife tried it and it did work. Later that day, I wanted to lock the door, and it wouldn't work.Again remove batteries over night. Next day OK for one operation, then it wouldn't work.The final straw is the business I purchased it from thru Amazon will not return phone calls nor emails.Do NOT buy one."
+5738,1,Terrible Re-makes,"If your hoping these are the original recordings that you used to hear on the radio, they are not. These are all re-makes and you will be very disappointed ."
+5739,2,So much easier than the powdered stuff,"I was born and raised in Germany and we always used these gelatin sheets for baking. Since moving to the US, I have converted my recipes to the powdered kind, but I find that the sheets make it a lot easier to not get clumps. Just let it sit in cold water for 10-20 minutes, then press out the excess water, return to a clean pot, and dissolve on low heat). If you have trouble getting smooth results with Knox, I highly recommend you try these - and Dr. Oetker is hands down the best brand for gelatin around!!"
+5740,1,Water dispenser,"The dispenser, is very very small, I ordered it for bday party, once I took it out of the box, I was very disappointed, not recommend for party's. very disappointed."
+5741,2,Sterling Silver Butterfly Earrings,"I loved the packaging of this item. The box was big enough that no one could tell I was receiving jewelry. They were placed in a small, black bag, completely protected from any damage. I loved them when I finally opened the bag, and couldn't wait to wear them. I was immediately given complements at work about my new earrings."
+5742,1,Not for tall people. Not suitable for steps or rough surfaces,"While it's true that this hand truck can handle 150 lbs, it has two major flaws that made me regret buying it. First of all, the handle bar is too low for me. I'm not THAT tall (5'11''). But it's extremely inconvenient to move around if you have to either hold it with your fingertips, or bend over. Particularly if you actually reach the load limit.Second, because of its cute folding mechanism, the item is naturally pretty weak. Don't try to move a heavy load down the step in your entrance, for example. Sooner or later you are going to inflict structural damage on the hinges where it folds. Mine simply broke one day.To sum it up, this is only recommended as a backup hand truck for smaller jobs around the apartment or house."
+5743,1,Stem is rather flimsy,"I know that these are intended to go on a specific vehicle but retrofitting to a custom built unit is difficult. Metal stem is weak. I accidentally snapped one off and had to rethread the end that goes into the rod end. It didn't take much to break it, rather surprising. Hopefully the shock will work for a long time after spending the time to get it mounted. Got it for a great price(not the regular Amazon price) so I can't complain much."
+5744,2,Excellent movie,"I have seen deliverance a number of times and others that reviewed this movie are right about that the banjo annd squel likea pig are not the only good parts of the movie.The waterfall scene was excellent,and the very guiltyRonny Cox played an great charictor.This is a must see movie .For Burt Reynolds,Jon Voight,and Ned Beatty fans also"
+5745,1,What SAP BW version ???,"Nowhere in the book, nor on Amazon detailed info nor in the ""view pages inside"" is mentioned that the book treats BW 2.0 and IS NOT GOOD for BW 3.1 or later.I had to read all the buyers reviews and to find out about the BW version, only after I had the book ordered and sent to me. So Because I use 3.2 I have sent back this book. It's not up-to-date, there seems not to be a reprint for BW 3.0So it was not useful to me. I am very disappointed.The book can show you some tasks to do in BW 2.0 but it learns you nothing if you have other cubes to make in different SAP applications.Also, it does not mention the transaction names behind the screens printed. Pitty, since this could have helped us when working in BW 3.0 (screens and menus can change but often the TX's remain the same)..."
+5746,1,Not a soil meter,This meter work when measuring pH solutions but not soil. Perhaps they need to create a standard procedure to make a soil soultion.
+5747,1,horrible game condition,"i recieved the disc in the mail today. as soon as i put the game in to play it froze and would not load. i reset the console over and over but it still froze and would not load. the seller is very good about giving refunds, very simple and easy. I would definitely buy from this seller again."
+5748,2,Bringing Passion to Change,"By putting the heart into business everyone wins. According to Carmel change is not working in many companies because of the lack of passion. Change Activists make things happen because they careCarmel creates a compelling case for becoming a Change Activist. This benefits the individual, the business and society as a whole. She learnt her activist skills at the Greenham Common US Air Base in the UK and has successfully these skills into the business worldThe free flowing style is refreshing. And her case is backed up by many interviews with the likes of Anita Roddick of Body Shop fameI've recommended this to my website members and they've told me that it has helped them to - take control of their lives, turn up the volumen on what they really care about, and above all - make things happen.Definitely different and definitely recommended"
+5749,2,#1 book on LIMOGES,"Living With Limoges is comprehensive, professionally photographed, well written, informative and interesting. Thousands of beautiful photographs of unique pieces of LIMOGES porcelain have complete descriptions and values. I have all of the books and LIVING WITH LIMOGES is the #1 book on LIMOGES PORCELAIN!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND LIVING WITH LIMOGES!"
+5750,1,Rohrbacher's theory: It oversimplifies driven syntax,"After reading this book, it seems to me that many ""ivory tower"" linguists are attempting to qualify and quantify the complex field of morphology- driven syntax. Rorhrbacher's theories are classic exercises in oversimplification. The use of language must necessarily allow for the flexibility of verbal poignancy. Rohrbacher still refuses to take this fact into account when he insists on linguistic stagnation. The book simply glosses over the potential malleablity of all languages. Such simplicity only hurts the vibrant field of linguistics."
+5751,2,Very nice puzzle game !!!,I bought this game for my son. He likes to play it. Small characters are the only minus in that game.
+5752,2,Hear the Kids Roar,"Of all the books we have for our kids, this is one that is most likely to elicit smiles and sounds from our 14 month-old twins. We have our own sound effects for each page of opposites, and both kids try to imitate us (with our daughter doing a rather frightening ""roar""). Each page features a series of opposites, such as ""Dinosaur roar...dinosaur squeak"". Finally the book ends with the dinosaurs having an excellent lunch. The pictures are colorful and expressive. However, it is the one book with a picture that I find quite disturbing - the meek dinosaur is cringing on its page, with the shadow of a bigger dinosaur clearly baring its teeth, leading to the conclusion the meek dinosaur is about to become lunch, and I find that a little scary. Other than that, I highly recommend the book."
+5753,2,Excellent product,"After having my old logitech mouse's battery die on me several times, i opted for a G5 (over the G7). The thing looks way better than the g7 and you dont ever have to have that lingering battery-death feeling. The G5 feels great in my hand and i actually noticed an increased frag rate in DOD:s. Interesting, but it might be psychological. either way, i love this thing and i dont think i'll ever buy another mouse."
+5754,2,Great ideas,"This book enables me to look at the patterns, practice the new template and stitches, and then do my project. Excellent for beginners as well as advanced."
+5755,1,Disappointment,"I've been meaning to give this mask a review. And now, I shall!I got this mask as a gift. And it really sucks that I ended up not liking it. I don't know what went on in the shop/factory/place that made this but it does NOT look like the picture. After hoping for awhile that I'd get a nice bright white and cute mask, I got a white mask with some cream colored areas and a weird pink mole on the upper cheek. This mask looks half-assed, basically. I wish whoever made this would have put in more effort into it because it wouldn't have taken much to make it look the way it's supposed to look."
+5756,1,Ear wax in a so called new Jawbone Bluetooth,"I purchases 2 Bluetooth Jawbones from this vendor. This past weekend I received the delivery. However, they were quick in delivering the items, one of the two items looks new and works, however the other one looked used.Before I opened the boxes, one of them didn't have all the packaging and wrapping as the other. It was obvious that the item had been used as the instructions that came with it has water spots on it and most discussing is the ear piece was dirty and has ear wax in the opening. I showed it to a co-worker who was interested in purchasing from this vendor, but now has seeked another. The ear piece doesn't stay in place and the ear loop falls off.I'm emailing this vendor to exchange it. Although I'm happy with one of them, just the sight of ear wax on the other discusses me. Will update as soon as I hear back from the vendor."
+5757,2,JAY-Z LAST ALBUM WAS AWESOME,"JAY-Z last album was the bomb!this is my first album I bought.He is a great rapper,no doubt that he will do it again y'all.The beat was awesome I mean the bomb!,I was surprise to all the fan from this review that doesn't like is last album,yo Jay-z is good.There two hidden bonus track u can find on the last track #16 u need two fast forward to get to the song call Jigga My Nigga,the other one I don't know what the name of the track.So this CD is soooo!!! good."
+5758,2,Valuable tool for a field ecologist,"I am a plant community ecologist that prides myself in knowing many of the plants in the Intermountain West. However, myself and students are always finding new plants, especially as we move into new areas. My primary plant keys are the Intermountain Flora and Plants of the Pacific Northwest. Since I only key a couple months out of the year I forget many of the terms, needing a refresher as I start back out in the spring (my students call it winter death). My students and I find this book very useful and easy to use, particarly for beginning students. It is always with us in the field."
+5759,1,This book is retarded,"A friend who had the same taste in reading as me recommended this book so I bought it. I was in a few spots funny, but more dumb then anything. Save your money."
+5760,2,A great album!!!,"I must say, this album is one of the best cds I own. I listen to a lot of Christian rock, and this is one of the softest bands I listen to. Think Relient K's newer stuff, but slightly softer. This album is very well written, and they are great musicians. I can listen to this whole cd and love every second of it. My favorites would have to be ""The Real"" (of course. I love the ""woah"" in the chorus. It is a song that has some great guitar melodies, and a reassuring message that God IS there.) My other favorites are ""Time"" and ""Perfect Chemistry"" All in all, this album is VERY well done and you should most definately check it out. You will not be sorry. (Matt Theissen himself said it makes him a happy camper, that has to give it some credibility, right?) Of course it does!!!Jesus loves you!"
+5761,2,Great for our deck,We needed a barrier to keep our 17 month old toddler from leaving our deck area. The exit area is just about 5 feet wide and most gates wont fit. In addition the area is uncovered and exposed to the elements so a wood or metal gate would not have worked. The telescoping design and heavy plastic construction are exactly what we needed. It frustrates our toddler to be trapped but I feel good knowing I can take my attention away for a moment without worrying she'll get into the yard unsupervised.
+5762,1,"The kind of book that gives ""New Age"" a bad name","Pint-sized and poorly written, this guide would be a great gift for someone you dislike. After all, you're just trying to say, ""Get outta here!"" right?Besides the numbingly dull text, the author sucks the lifeblood out of travel saying it's the interior journey that counts.This is the kind of book that gives ""New Age"" a bad name."
+5763,1,Not worth it,This product has a defect. The metal piece that screws into the shower pipe is not stationary. The filter swivels around so the showerhead won't stay in place. I received a replacement filter and the same problem occurred. Water sprayed everywhere. I contacted Culligan direct and the CSR told me to remove the rubber seal inside the metal screw cap. I did that and water still sprayed everywhere and the filter continued swivel. I called back and the CSR said that anyone else who had the problem was able to remedy it by taking out the rubber seal. Now I have two worthless filters sitting in my garage. Good thing I was able to find the old model in a store in town. I'll be looking for a different brand filter.
+5764,2,My Favorite S. King Story,"I've read everything published by Stephen King, and this story is by far my favorite. What makes this my favorite story is how the tension of life vs. death is constant, (stop walking and you die) so you don't want to stop reading, because you have to know which of the likeable and unlikable characters avoids the ever watching guards, and which ones tire and pay the ultimate price. The story is a metaphor for life, in that life also is like a long road you must keep walking on, or die. Also, `The Long Walk' is not as 'over the top' in unreal horror as SK's usual."
+5765,1,VGN-140P is very easy to break comparing to others,"I broguth VGN-140P from Amazon last March, but it alreay have broken twice already. The first time, 3 months after I brought it, when I was on a trip to asia, the LCD broke without warning (cracked), since I was outside of the US, I had to pay for the repair on my own for over $600 to replace the LCD. Now it broke again. This time, the computer will be freezen whenever I move the computer. I reformat the disk and install the system several time, no help. I had a Vaio SK notebook for over 4 years, it is still worked very well, heavily used, not easy to break at all. But this VGN-140P is so easy to break, I like the size, but I don't like the quality and the reliability. I have 3 notebooks all of them are sony, but not anymore, I am going to get a new one, not SONY for sure. Maybe Panasonic Roughbook should be better than Vaio."
+5766,1,worst patterson book yet,"I've read several of James Patterson's books and enjoyed almost all of them -- except this one. Not only was it difficult to get interested in, it never seemed to move along. Typically I can read one of his books in a few days, this took almost 2 weeks and I quit reading it twice before making myself finish it."
+5767,2,"A mint index, and much more pack in updated values with historical notes and pages of reference detail","Coin collectors will surely already know Krause's weighty coin catalogs: the 33rd edition of the 2006 Standard Catalog Of World Coins is now on the market, and it packs in the price guides in well over 2,000 pages. No color here, but the coins don't need color representation, and there are black and white photos throughout. But this is more than a weighty id guide: various charts, explanations of grading terminology which affects coin values so greatly, conversion charts for dates, a mint index, and much more pack in updated values with historical notes and pages of reference detail."
+5768,2,Wonderful children's book,"I have been searching for this book for years! I read it as a child, and still remember what it was about--especially the snail/poem scene. I have wanted to find it to share w/my children (my son's now 16--but he'll still appreciate it!). This was my first visit to Amazon and I am hooked now!"
+5769,2,very nice set,Bought this from Amazon as a gift to our friends. Very good set for the price. Our friends loved it too. Perfect size for serving water or juice or wine. This is not too heavy but looks durable. We were little bit worried if they may break during shipping but it arrived in the perfect condition and as always very quick shipping from Amazon.
+5770,1,Not a happy person,I brought this used cd cause I wanted the two disk one and I go to open it when it came in the mail and it was the Come on over usa one that we got and then their was no disk and now the seller is not e-mail back! I want my money back! I'm very upset never buy anything used again.
+5771,1,Horrible. avoid this pedal,"I am lucky enough to have tried this pedal used. i have been playing for over 20 years, and this is hands down one of the worst pedals i have ever tried.to start off, i had no issues with the actual performance of the pedal. everything worked just as it should.the sound on the other hand is horrible. the distortion itself is not that great. although, one benefit is you can mix in the wet and dry signal. the sub-octave is where this pedal craps out. the tracking just does not exist. i have a 5 string active bass and this pedal could not track the low string. the only place it seemed to track properly was above the 12th fret. this made it completely unusable.avoid this pedal. if you want a sub octave, stay away from the mxr too. check out the mark bass pedal."
+5772,2,Six Stars if I could.,"One of the bset films ever made, if not the best. It twists and turns like a twisty-turny thng. Stagering performances all round, atmospheric music, brilliant script, mind scrambling plot, great locations etc etc ad nauseum.But I must agree with another of the reviewers, NO SEQUEL EVER! This film stands alone."
+5773,2,Excellent Collection,"This album is highly listenable, not only for Mariah Carey fans, but for non Mariah fans like me as well. Mariah is a highly talented songwriter and singer. She should have stayed this way. Her newer stuff is good, but it is nothing compared to her 'older' stuff. A very very comprehensive collection. A must have for all music lovers."
+5774,1,crap,"Ill sum it up quick, the more you talk about panic /anxiety disorder, the more you join support groups and talk about it constantly , the more you make it a part of your life , the longer it will stay and the deeper it will get into your subconscious, which will make it harder to overcome, but overcome and be completely cured you can be and its very easy ,as much hate from other suffer's ill probably insight by saying that, the problem is that these type of books are the last thing you need. search the net for a guy named Charles Linden, the get back to living"
+5775,1,The best but not the very best,"Rhino tried to do their job here to make a selection from the best kwown albums out of Todd's entire carriere span.The overall result is a litle bit sloppy.It makes the listener think that most of Todd Rundgen's songs give the imression that's all about wining.Not enough rock'n'roll here,too many ""love songs"".If you want the very best of Todd Rundgen,you better try ""Initiation"".That was his ""vey best period"".Sadly,only one song is featured on this selection,adaptly named ""Real man"".Indeed."
+5776,1,Good and bad.,It is a good device and it works well but the N64 analog stick does not work right. If I knew who the manafactor of it I might be able to find a web sight and see if there is any drivers for it.
+5777,1,Natural is just a gimmick- contains Parabens and more,"Except for the aloe vera there is nothing natural about this product. I love the smell though, it has a light fresh smell that I find refreshing. However what is so natural about the following ingredients that are found in this product: Methylparaben, Propylparaben, PhenoxyethaCompare those preservatives above to thsse used in Aubrey Organic's shampoos: Aubrey's Preservative (Citrus Seed Extract, Vitamin A, C, E)Which of these are more natural?This company uses organic and natural as gimmicks and a marketing ploy. There is no difference between this product and any other one you find on the shelf that doesnt use the word natural.If you want a natural shampoo try another brand and read the ingredients before buying. Parabens are parabens, harmful chemicals are just that even if they are preceded by the world natural."
+5778,1,Candy Coated,"Going through divorce is never like this. Both jump straight out of their admittedly routine nuclear family into bed with even more self absorbed, dull, drab, unsympathetic, tedious, and bitter sex partners. The Kevin Bacon and Marisa Tomei characters should have at least APPEARED to fill the needs that our married couple had been so lacking. And what 17yo girl gives a 13yo boy nude photos of herself?"
+5779,1,As if I'm not frustrated enough from sitting in rush hour traffic!,"This device is nothing short of audio torture! From the second I plugged it in, I got nothing but static. After adjusting it and moving it around I was able to get it to the point where I could actually hear a little bit of music over the static...and then I realized that I was in a car and I would eventually have to move...so the whole reaching accross the interior of the car and holding my ipod on the very front corner while I balanced the other part on my knee was just not applicable to me actually operating a vehicle(who woulda thunk it?) After a few minutes I was so frustrated and tangled up in cords that I found myself wishing that this monster of a device was bio-degradable so I could throw it out the window! I obviously gave up on it after one or two tries...I would rather be up to my ears in cd's than ever have to deal with that thing again!!!"
+5780,2,Ackoffs 2nd Best - right after Re-creating the Corporation,"The only book by Ackoff that I would recommend more highly is Re-creating the Corporation. These two books summarize much of his thought and philosophy of business design. If you are looking for a better understanding on systems thinking and its implications for organization design and peformance, and did not find it in Senge's The Fifth Discipline, then here is a great place to go. Put on your thinking cap and delve into Ackoff's Best."

+5783,2,Beating out Her First!!!,"I'm biased. I loved Macy Gray's first CD so much, I bought copies for friends. I was worried that her second cd would not be as solid, tight, or melt together like the first. Miss Gray, my hat is off. I tossed the CD in, turned lights low, and sipped a beer as I listened to the words melt me into the lazyboy. It's the perfect music for those all night conversations, coffee shops, or just to set a light R&B/Funk mood. In adition, it is one of the most erotic records I've heard. Macy has a voice that seems to come from her very soul. In my opinion, it can only be matched by ""Bewitched, Bothered, and Bewildered"", by Ella Fitzgerald. ""Oblivion"", ""Don't come Around"", and ""Freak Like Me"" are the backbone of this must have CD."
+5784,1,Smells like plastic or something!,"This is my first review after using Amazon for many years. I have been using the Cotton Candy spray since 2007. When I saw the moisturizer, I was so excited. It smells awful! I slathered it all up and down my arms and couldn't stand myself and ended up in the shower. I don't understand, since I also ordered the spray and it is wonderful. I don't know if it has been sitting on a shelf too long or what, but it is going back."
+5785,1,Plainly a disaster . . .,"All that hype, and for what. The acting stunk, the special effects not so special (okay 1 star just for that, and only that). Sorry, no recommendations here."
+5786,1,Less Than Zero?,"Maybe the reviewers read this one or The Informers and mistook them for American Psycho, amd maybe Mary Harron did the same. The movie bears only a fleeting resemblance to the book and misses the point entirely. Aside from that, it was poorly done. I would click over and buy the book...you will be deeply disturbed by it. As for the movie, skip it!"
+5787,1,"Waay too long, too many bible verses","I stopped at pg 130 thinking it must be towards the end, only to see I wasn't even 1/2 way. Book DRAGGED. And I am catholic but still felt like there was too much preaching just to put it in there. The characters had some good development but at points I also felt like, enough already. Like others I wanted to like this book but really struggled to finish. I'd sorta like to know what happens to nonna character in the next book but won't buy because I don't want six more chapters of gospel writing & repetitive descriptions of how main characters cope."
+5788,2,unraveling the scarlet thread,"This first of the Sherlock Holmes stories, A Study in Scarlet introduces Watson and Holmes and narrates the beginning of their ongoing partnership. Holmes� genius and his theory of deductive reasoning, which he presents in an article ambitiously titled ""The Book of Life,"" is proven effective when he solves the case of a murder whose links extend as far as the Mormons in Utah. Detective connoisseurs will enjoy Holmes� humorously arrogant references to the fictional detectives of Poe and Gaboriau, among the first authors in the genre and influential for the Holmes stories. Though Doyle pitches some of the morbidity and philosophical profundity in his inheritance from authors like Poe, the reader who enjoys a good story - detective or not - will be pleased to find surprises, intrigue, and a little art jargon in the unraveling of the scarlet thread that runs through life and underlies the mysteries of the human mind."
+5789,1,Throw up flavor?,"I tasted these for the first time today... I am not a picky person, but this bar caused me to gag and I needed to rub the excess of this bar off with a nearby napkin. It really reminded my of acidy vomit."
+5790,2,Tested with Dr.,I took this product with me on my last Doctor visit. Her nurse and than she took my blood pressure the old way (manually) and than tested it with the Omron. All three were very close. I think now she will believe me that my blood pressure is lower at home than in her office. The software and the Omron work well.
+5791,2,Great advice -- loved this book!,"This is the first book I have read by Elizabeth Pantley and I think she is amazing!This book is honest, practical and doable.So many of the parenting books out there tell you what to do and what the results will be. What you are supposed to do is near impossible and the results are sporadic or not typical.Here Pantley give us specific ways to parent, discipline and work with our kids. Written in a way that is easy to put into practice right away. And she does great reminder pages and wrap ups. She's honest about her own parenting failures and give us acceptance when we screw up.I have recommended this book to my mom's club and think it is the best parenting book I have read (and that is saying a lot!)"
+5792,2,Absolute favorite book of all time!,"This book is my all-time favorite. I have read it more times than I can count and it never loses its charm. There have been times when I have finished reading the last page only to turn to the beginning and immediately start reading it all over again.I would recommend this book to people of all ages and backgrounds. This beautifully written simple tale is inspiring and uplifting in a subtle, refreshing way. If you are the type of person who believes in fate, following your heart or that everything happens for a reason, you will absolutely love this book!"
+5793,1,Save your money. It doesn't work.,My daughter has an extreme reaction to poison ivy and we bought some of this stuff to help her get rid of it by washing with it. She tried it for two summers with absolutely no results. We finally took her to a skin doctor who told us that this product doesn't work and gave us a prescription wash. The Rx wash works much better. Tecnu is a waste of your money. Don't buy it.
+5794,1,"Waste of Money and worse, of Time",This book explains very little. After Reading the first 132 pages I know a fraction of what I would have known just taking the tutorial and experimenting with the product. Screen shots are accurate but the explainations and repercusions of the various fields are vague. The first two attempts at setting up a new site were complete failures even following along with the text. I had to use the built in help to get the neccessary detail regarding the site setup fields. I wouldn't waste either your money or your time. ...
+5795,1,Useless,"The temperature is consistently wrong. I don't know how you can make a thermostat that does that, but whoever made this managed to pull it off."
+5796,2,The Professional Amateur,"At least he is CIA intel and that is actually a big part of spying. The fact he wasn't part of the gun set doesn't make him less a spy. The story however wants you to think of him as a helpless bookworm. John Savage does one of the best roles of his career as a CIA agent that has been relegated to desk duty research which is his forte. When his fiance is killed overseas by ruthless terrorist he wants justice. With the help of his abilities he is able to formulate a plan and apply pressure in a way the CIA can't refuse. Good acting, directing, camera work, and music. Good action and great locations. A very entertaining movie that has been far overdue getting to DVD. Fans of spy movies should enjoy it and many that like action movies as well. Just as in the real world of espionage, all the loose ends aren't always tied in nice little knots. Fans of Tom Clancy will probably enjoy this one."
+5797,2,Great bag!,"We bought this bag to use with a newly installed hitch-mounted cargo carrier..the idea is to add to the cargo room in our Subaru for some weekend camping trips.The bag's pictures and description did not really do it justice.. it is very thick material that we believe will stand up to lots and lots of use. We just came back from our first camping trip and it was great! Easy to load, easy to zip closed, easy to secure to the cargo carrier. The expandable feature is nice, but we needed all the extra space the bag provided.This set-up, of a hitch cargo carrier and basket is SO much easier to use than the roof-top carrier we had.. who wants to take a step ladder along on a camping trip and load stuff on the roof of a car in the rain??The bag fastens securely to the cargo rack, and the zip closure is protected by a flap that covers the zipper and then velcro-locks to the bag itself. Very thoughtfully designed.The only thing that might make this bag better would be a storage pouch."
+5798,1,Dumbest movie I ever saw,I thought this film was highly overrated! I laughed a few times but almost shut it off 1/2 way through but kept thinking it would get better so I continued to watch it. It didn't get any better. Probably the worst movie I've seen in a long time.
+5799,2,Must have book for kids of all ages - whether you like baseball or not.,"As an admitted father of two toddlers, book lover, history buff and baseball fan, my review may seem like the most biased you could read. Yes, I do love this book on many levels.But I have shared this book with children and adults of all ages -- many that care less about baseball, sports or history -- and all have been captivated by the illustrations and unbelievable level of detail Christopher Bing brought to this book.Indeed, it is ""copiously and faithfully illustrated"" by the author. Every time you pick up this book you will be rewarded for your attention: it is filled with interesting little images of ads, money and baseball-related items from the period.This book will surprise and delight you, again and again. Nice job, Mr. Bing. Very nice job."
+5800,1,All Bibles Are Not Created Equal,"I'm a college student studying web development and internet graphic design, and based on the quality of another ""Bible"" book I had recently purchased, the Photoshop 6 Bible - Gold Edition, I jumped at the Flash 5 Bible as soon as I saw it available. This book has turned out to be one of the worst instructional books I've ever read. The numerous grammar mistakes are bad enough, but the exercises themselves are full of mistakes, like this book was rushed straight past the editor and out the door. In one exercise, they refer to a movie clip, but fail to mention which movie clip in the library they're talking about! The Flash 5 Bible is a complete waste of time and money."
+5801,2,Let's Hope We Don't Use Them!,"I guess I won't really know how well these units work unless or until I have a fire! Let's hope I don't have to find out! Thay arrived promptly and in excellent shape. The backup 9 volt battery was included, which surprised me."
+5802,2,High quality,"Well made, wanted to extend my wireless keyboard and mouse range. Ran this from basement towards the ceiling and now can connect my devices to the basement htpc without a problem. Even added a USB hub at the end to add both the dongles for keyboard and mouse. Excellent buy!!"
+5803,1,Badly Advertised,"I looked forward to getting this Abbot & Costello DVD with great anticipation of sharing it with my children. I especially looked forward to their ""Who's on First"" routine. I was greatly disapointed.Most of the material on the DVD comes from an early television program and was probably very funny at the time. Taking it out of that context, however, leaves it less than amusing.The greatest disappointment was the clip of ""Who's on First"". Not only did they abridge the routine, it's done as an afterthought during a cameo appearance. What you find on the internet is much better.My recommendation - if you're looking for the real Abbott & Costello, don't look here."
+5804,2,More Grooving Can Music,"The absolute pinnacle of Can's musical ouvre is Future Days, so I can't honestly say that Can is the best Can record, but its way better than Allmusic's 1 1/2 star review would indicate. This album continues to explore the locked in groove that Can is famous for and is a pleasure to relax and listen to. EFS 99 Can Can is a funny idea, but it is irritating to listen to. I was a little wary of buying this album, but after reading the previous review and listening to the sound samples I clicked the add to cart button and I'm glad that I did."
+5805,1,DO NOT PURCHASE !! QUALITY HAS CHANGED,Have purchased these same moccasin's from Minnetonka but this time BIG surprise...the top stitching is some kind of TWINE! Not the usual suede. Poor quality...unfortunately my husband wore them before telling me so cannot return..but will never purchase again! Khoels has better ones..will get them from there..sorry Minnetonka.
+5806,2,Continues to Thrill...,"I had the great fortune to see the original production of Ragtime in Toronto with Audra, Marin Mazzie, and Brian Stokes Mitchell. It was actually the last performance there prior to the re-working of the show for Broadway. Not knowing what to expect, I was completely blown away by what I firmly believe is one of the best musicals of all time.This CD captures the emotion of the show and I get chills every time I hear it..especially during Audra's solos and duets.I know others have complained about the quality. Generally it's very good, but I agree there are a few recording irregularities. They are not too intrusive (mostly volume changes and a few crackles)."
+5807,2,Good book,"I haven't read a whole lot of this author yet, but after this book I might read a few more and go from there, it was fun!"
+5808,2,"A sweet and clever parody of Jane Austen's ""Emma""","Cher, the main character of this movie, and the analogue to ""Emma"" in Jane Austen's novel of the same name, is a sweet but naive high school girl who takes it upon herself to play matchmaker with her teachers and friends. Though a spoiled and rich Beverly Hills girl, Cher does seem to have an inkling of what is important in life--that of helping your friends--and pursues that goal with admirable gusto! Especially amusing are Cher's misperceptions of the intentions and sexual orientation of a gay friend! In the end she finds love for herself as well, in the person of her Dad's somewhat nerdy and proper step son and business mentee."
+5809,1,Support your local library,"Save your money and get this from a library. Mr Jordan has milked this tale long enough. It's a pity he does not respect the readers enough to end it. Prequel? Nah, I wanted an end to the story, not more beginings."
+5810,2,Nice Little Decorative Piece,Great little piece for the price. Super easy to assemble; light enough to easily move and sturdy enough to hold books and other items.
+5811,1,Sting wax action figure review,This toy is awful. It looks like a Disneyland Parade reject and what's with the pink cape? It also looks like he's passing gas and trying to hide it by poseing. I give this toy a -0 out of 10.
+5812,2,Really fun songs!,Our family loves this music and so does my toddler niece! I use it at work with a toddler/mom playgroup as well.
+5813,2,CLEANER,"REALLY FAST SHIPPING, EXACTLY AS STATED, WOULD DEFINITELY BUY AGAIN FROM THIS SELLER. SMOOTH TRANSACTION, HAPPY CUSTOMER. BRAND NEW AS DESCRIBED."
+5814,1,I did *not* enjoy this book,"Smoky the Cowhorse is a boring book. I mean it. I'm a very patient reader and I don't give up on books easily. And I usually love books about horses. But this one, well...It doesn't have much of a plot. I guess it's ""the life of a cowhorse"", but Black Beauty was way more interesting than this was. There's little conversation-at least in Black Beauty the horses talked to each other. I really didn't find it at all engaging.The grammar is awful. Sure, I don't mind that in conversation. Or in a book written in the first person. It gives it a certain tone. But here it just seems like, well, like bad grammar! And it keeps changing tense! It'll say something like ""`I'll go over there,' he says, and then he got up and went to the barn.' Or ""He looks at the horse, and then he walked away.""I suppose writing standards were different back in the `20's; this book won the Newberry Medal. Still, I wouldn't recommend it."
+5815,1,Bird Phonics,"Would not buy another unless I a able to hear what is on the CD. I don't like the format of the video. Too many items for the bird to learn unless you play one at a time. I need soething for her when I am not with her,"
+5816,2,A Masterpiece from the Grand Master......,"One of my favorite by Heinlein, it's a nice long book, his others always leave me wanting more, but this one is fully satisfying. People who haven't read Methusaleh's Children will be completely clueless about some of the characters contained in this novel, so read that before you even consider tackling this novel. I see that many have complained about the sex contained in this work, but I feel they've missed one of Heinlein's strongest points in the book, that ""morals"" are something inflicted upon us as children, and that those who are truly ""moral"" develop their own code of honor based on their life experiences."
+5817,1,Nothing new here,"It amazes me that people consider Shania a great singer. Good maybe - great no. However, if Shania finds another songwriting partner/producer there may be hope for her. This album is a rehash of everything else she and Mutt have done on their last 2 albums only the lyrics are even worse. The country and pop versions of each song is just a cheap attempt to dominate the music scene. If you want something refreshing (and country) buy Shania's first album where she actually had to sing."
+5818,1,3D isn't always better,"This game is supposed to be the ""improved"" version of Pharaoah, which was a terriffic game IMHO, but was a flat, two dimensional plane game. I hate how they're taking these games (like Roller Coaster Tycoon) and making them three dimensional when the three dimensionality only makes it more difficult to maneuver across the terrain.For this game, I couldn't play it that long because the game designers went for realism over function in creating the buildings with the result that every building looks the same, so you forget what is what, not to mention that everything looks bland overall."
+5819,1,Banding and/or Roller marks on Photo Quality Pictures,"I've owned the s450 for years and still use the printer today. I like it so much, I recommended the i560 to a friend and was very upset to discover that photo quality pictures printed with the i560 (printed on the free 4x6 paper that came with the printer) continuously print with visible roller marks on them. Not sure why this is happening... I've never had this problem with my s450. Otherwise, after a number of print head alignments, the photos looked great --- they just have these GLOSSY HORIZONTAL BANDING LINES ALL OVER THE PAPER."
+5820,2,Birdfeeders Shelters & Baths,An excellent book that illustrates how to make some very nice birdhouses that vary from the easy to the complex like the one on the cover. I'm building the one on the cover and am having a lot of fun! The best birdfeeder book I've seen so far.
+5821,2,My favorite Book,I read this book three times. I'm going to download it on my kindle and read it a fourth time. This book is an example of superior writing skills. The story line is so fascinating! All elementary and high school students should be encouraged to read this book. Steven Spielberg should make this into a movie. I know most Americans didn't know there were black folks living in Germany during the Hitler regime.
+5822,1,Dead in 2 1/2 months,It was an ok mp3 player while it lasted. Do yourself a favor and spend a little more to get a name brand.
+5823,2,Page Turner!,The Rapture Dialogues is a great read. It caught my attention at the very beginning and kept me going to the end. I only wish that the story kept going. When can we expect the sequel?
+5824,1,Piece of junk,"Do not buy this phone. First, the audio quality is below average, and the microwave totally interferes with it. More importantly, it stopped working properly after only 4 months. The battery life was OK for about 2 months, and then became progressively worse. By 4 months, the battery would last a whole 5 minutes before going dead (despite keeping it charging all the time). We sent it to Panasonic (we had to pay for the shipping), and within a few weeks, we received a refurbished phone. It was OK for only 2 months before the battery life started to become progressively worse (sound familiar?). It now works for only 15 minutes before needing a charge. Bottom line, we bought a new 2.4 GHz AT&T phone (which sounds much better, with no interference) and will throw this piece of junk in the garbage where it belongs. We will never buy another Panasonic phone again."
+5825,1,cheap not worth the $$$,I was very disappointed with this floating golf game. It was of poor quality and just about impossible to get the golf balls to go anywhere and it was impossible to hit or come anywhere near the green. I would NOT recommend this game at all.
+5826,1,Bought 2 - both broke = poor quality,I purchased two of these pads and both are defective. One didn't even work at all and the second didn't survive one full night of DDR. I do not recommend these pads - I would say buy the more expensive ones with the foam pads inside - they may cost more but those would be more durable than these flimsy ones.
+5827,1,overrated,"Gotta admit, I was very disappointed with this book. If you don't own any astronomy books and want a good primer, this is ok. Before you buy it, you may want to just check it out from the library and see what you think. Fairly expensive for what you get. I didn't see it as a ready reference. I'd recommend the spiral bound version of Nightwatch for beginners instead."
+5828,1,"Mat looks fluffy, right? It really isn't.","The photo of this mat looks like it would be pretty padded but it isn't at all. It's quite thin. The back has vinyl dots so it's supposed to grip the crate pan, but in my car it ends up sliding around with the dog on it and being bunched up. Here are my comments to two claims they make in the product description:- Luxurious plush sleeper bed for both dogs and cats - not luxurious feeling - maybe luxurious looking but it's just fake fur- Non Skid backing for secure placement - definitely not secureIt was inexpensive, so you get what you pay for. I would not buy this again."
+5829,1,"I love Doug's writing, but not this one...","i love doug's writing; i've seen him read twice (i saw him earlier this year in his first public appearance since his self-imposed public exile) and read all of his books. but his latest attempt falls so short in plot development, the reader is left wishing she/he didn't taint her/his view of doug by buying _girlfriend in a coma_.i wish mr. coupland would stick to doing what he does best: observing the world around him and describing it through his ironic characters instead of subjecting his readers to a superfical, moralizing ride through a bad science-fiction tale."
+5830,2,I never guessed I'd be playing D&D on the PC!,"After being a die-hard 'pencil & dice' D&D player/DM since first edition rules, I didn't think I'd ever find a game that would emulate the D&D experience to me with all the possibilities of a game that you and your friends created in your own minds. Then along came 'Neverwinter'! It has revolutionised my gaming experience, the pencil & dice have been put in mothballs for the time being. NWN is the best. Well done bioware!"
+5831,1,Nightmare with Neverwinter Nights,"What an intriging little dialogue box in the ""uninstall"" portion of this game. ""We have found associated files in the NWN file folder...do you want them deleted?"" Click yes only if you want to delete 3/4 of your desktop and half of your crucial files!!! In eight years of computer gaming I have never seen anything like this on a pc game...ever. This game functioned so poorly and so erratically on my pc (2ghtz, 128meg ram, vodoo 3d video card) that I could not believe it was from the makers of Baulder's Gate. Don't risk your computer or test your frustration tollerance on this. At any cut rate price it isn't worth it! I regret there wasn't a rating less than one star."
+5832,1,Not as good as Duracell,"I bought these to use in my newborns swing. They lasted less than two weeks. I bought the eight pack of Duracell and they lasted almost twice as long. This is not worth the money. Plus if you get the subscribe and save of the Duracell, it comes out to almost the same price per battery. Don't waste your money on these."
+5833,1,ten little fingers,"This is ok, but if you are looking for great board books, try the touchy feely books like That's Not My Puppy, That's Not My Teddy. They excite a baby much more."
+5834,2,All in All a good blanket,The blanket is really soft and really warm and a good size the only problem I have with it is that it feels thin. All in all a good blanket.
+5835,1,Battle of the sexes my ass,"I have so many problems with this play, I don't even know where to begin. The thing that is the hardest to realize about Shakespeare is that the word ""comedy"" doesn't mean humor. It means the play ends with someone getting married. But to assume this means it ends happily is an ignorant modern notion.There's tons of feminist criticism about this play, with the central question being this; Is Katherine pleased at the end because she's actually been tamed, or do her and her man both have a secret understanding that they're manipulating everyone around them and that's why she's enjoying herself?Of course I think either argument is irrelevant because in order to get Kate tamed, her ""husband"" starves her and keeps her from sleep until she learns to do whatever he says regardless of how degrading or silly.So no. I'm not a fan. Not even a little bit. I know it's a product of the times it was written in, but I don't think that justifies me liking it."
+5836,1,Bad,The last 2 episodes are the worst. Some say it is good but I think it the worst episodes in any anime I ever saw. Therefore I am waiting for the movie to come and It is a great anime but some of the episodes in the anime takes 1 star as for the last 2 episodes.
+5837,2,One of my favorites,This movie was Johnny's best yet. I think its great for the entire family. I would recommend to anybody young and old.

+5840,1,Rightline Gear 100S10 PackRight Sport 1 Car Top Carrier,It was too hard to pack either on top of the car or packing things in it beforehand and THEN trying to hoist it on top of the car. Strapping it tightly was also difficult. I would NOT buy this product again.
+5841,2,Nicest external enclosure you can find.,"Believe me I've looked. They're glossy and sleek. But they will get warm, even hot. Probably could use some vents."
+5842,1,Here's what You really get!,"Here's what you really get; if you can get through a nightmare install (I had to call tech-support just to get it to install); A low-grade version of IBM's Via Voice technology (probably a freely available version), Microsoft's freely available Agent technology using Robby The Robot to speak to you, and a bunch of worthless Learning Games that don't teach anything but a few basic words you probably already know, and are more anoying than engaging. Voice translation is crap since your using a rudimentary ViaVoice version and the translation is rudimentary and not fully accurate (no conjugated verbs here of course). And if you want to translate web pages forget this software, try a FREE plug-in from Altavista for Internet Explorer called Babel Fish (INSERT THE URL!) instead of wasting money on this junk software. Instant Spanish 2000 is really just a bunch of other companies basic technology patched together to look like an original program. (INSERT SPITEFUL REMARK!)"
+5843,1,I was left behind!,"I must admit I was very much disappointed in not only this book but the last two! The series began with such a bang - holding your interest page after page. Now... sadly, the writers have choosen to drag the story out in an effort to simply make more money. I am so disappointed with them that I doubt I will read the next book... Honestly - they could have summed this up 2 books ago!"
+5844,2,"Depeche Mode ""Violator"" is stylin'","I recently purchased this CD and recorded it on my computer with Windows Media Player. My favorite track ""World in my Eyes"" gets a lot of play. The Windows Media Player is just software (codecs) so the CD doesn't get worn out. There is a lot of bass in this music and I do like bass. Actually it just digitizes the analog music tracks and then copies them to the hard disk. Pretty tight too - 160 K bps. Make that 64 K bps. I guess I don't need to sample ""Violator"" any more."
+5845,2,The only Red Rice Yeast I'd take,"After doing a fair amount of research in looking for a good time released Red Rice Yeast, I came upon Herbal Actives. The only thing you have to look out for is the size of the tablets. They have two versions, one where you take 1 tablet a day, which is a rather large pill but if you have no problem taking pills, it goes down easy. They also have a smaller tablet version where you take 2 a day. So if you believe you're getting a better deal in the quantity of tablets, read what the size of the tablet is and you'll see they are basically the same price either way."
+5846,1,Don't bother,"This movie was predictable, lame, and full of cheesy lines. Though it does contain the adorable Michael Vartan, that does not make it worth viewing even if you are absolutely obsessed with him. His performance as Charlie is quite bland, dull, and unemotional with virtually no facial expressions. It's definitely not his finest. Natasha Henstridge's role as Anna is almost mortifying. She could have at least tried to make her cheesy lines sound realistic, but alas, she fell short (although, with that script, I think anyone would have trouble). In fact, the best part is the interaction between Anna's and Charlie's best friends, Tracy and Henry (Olivia d'Abo and Michael Rispoli). I found them and their sub-plot much more entertaining than the original plot."
+5847,2,Good Storage Toolbox,"I bought this for my Intro to Fashion class and it held everything nicely and it also fit in my bag so I didn't need to carry it in my hand. I might not use this in the future just because it is really small and cannot hold my muslin and patterns. I underestimated the size I needed, but that was my mistake. Overall, a sturdy and good toolbox."
+5848,2,Very good CD!,"Being a fan of Megadeth, it was only natural for me to find out about this side project of Dave Mustaine's. I ordered it and though the vocals are not sung by Mustaine, they are still great nonetheless. For any fan of Megadeth, this is a must have, as it is very similar to their music (post Rust In Peace--less noise, more understandable lyrics). The quality is excellent. 11 tracks, all of which are good. My favorite would have to be ""The Day the Music Died"". Get this CD!"
+5849,2,Brilliant writing & breathtaking honesty,"Over a decade ago, a friend in LA mailed me an LA Weekely column called Letters at 2 AM about a man partaking in a ritual with friends and I'd never forgotten it. When I stumbled across a book by the same title as the article at the library, and realized it was the same author, I rejoiced. (Yes, reprint this book! I want my own copy!) I skipped the first part of the book, essays on current (now past) events, in favor of the last part of the book, more personal essays on alcohol, ritual, syncronicity, friendship, relationships, and other things that our minds - well, mine anyway - contemplate at 2 AM but don't have words for, let alone articulate so beautifully. I was moved and inspired by his unflinchingly honest reportage on his life."
+5850,1,Not helpful at all.,"I found this book to not be helpful at all. The materials that I studied in this book were not on the test. I would not recommend buying this study guide, but if you do, please do not rely solely on this book helping you to pass the test. You will definitely need to buy other books and study guides."
+5851,1,Safe for who?,"Petsafe is quite a misnomer, particularly in this case! Shouldn't a pet's bed be somewhere safe and secure? Instead, Petsafe has created a tiny space in the middle of a force field of fear that your dog is forced to retreat to in order to escape the uncomfortable shocks that come from the collar that goes along with the mat. Stray from the mat? Your dog gets zapped. Shouldn't the dog have a peaceful place to rest? Instead this provides the dog with a place to cringe in fear of a 'correction' from nowhere. It's so easy to teach a good stay or ""place"" cue that leaves your dog relaxed and happy to 'go to bed'. This thing is just cruel and unnecessary..Barbara Davis, CPDT-KA, CDBC[...]"

+5855,2,The Best Books I've Ever Read,The Harry Potter books are amazing. They are the best books I've ever read and whenever i read a book that is not part of the Harry Potter series I dont like it as much as I no I would have if I hadn't had such high expectations. So all i do is wait for the next Harry Potter book to come out so i can read another great book that will last me until the next one comes out. The only thing i'd like Rowling to do is write a little faster!
+5856,1,Disappointed,"There are some very nice nuggets in this book, and it has a great message. However, calling it ""a novel"" on the cover is stretching reality. It has a flimsy plot and story line; it is more a series of little vignettes about happiness than a novel. Also be forewarned, it is a very light read! It only has 152 pages, and on those pages the type is at least 14 pt. with spaces in between each paragraph. You can finish this book in a day or two.I purchased this book because of all the great reviews it had received, and this is the same reason I am compelled to write my own review. I was disappointed because I was expecting ""a novel"". This would be better as a touching email forward about happiness, than as a book..."
+5857,2,everything you need,"So far this is the best gardening book that covers Texas. Not the south central area, or gardening in general, or growing ""zones"", but the unique growing areas in Texas. Now you can select what thrives here and what doesn't. If gardening is your hobby and you want to work at it all the time, or, you would rather have a garden that requires the least amount of work, this book is for you.Texas Gardening is well laid out and indexed well. Any information you need is quick and easy to find. All in all, this will be your ""go to"" reference for practical information on what grows well in Texas, and what is required to grow it."
+5858,2,Doesn't work with games that were originally made for Xbox 360,"This is a well made and designed controller but it doesn't work some games that were originally made for Xbox 360(all of the buttons are switched around, the vibration doesn't work and one of the thumb sticks is completely inverted). To get it to work with games like mirror's edge you have to use a home made XBOX360 Controller Emulator v3.0(this gets the buttons and thumb sticks working right and it is suppose to fix the vibration but it seems to only work with windows vista 32 or 64bit if you set the vibration to 0 in the configuration file.) Logitech has been waiting for months for Microsoft to give them what they need to fix this problem but no telling how long it will take. I sent mine back and got a Microsoft Xbox 360 Wireless Controller for Windows. It is very well made, compatible with most new games, its vibration actually works on some of them and it fills more ergonomic if you have medium to large hands."
+5859,2,Awesome Album--Very underrated,"This album is very underrated. If you don't have this album you should get it. The best songs on this album are ""Take A Lick"", ""Coochie"", ""How Do You Feel"", ""Get Up"", ""P***y Makes The World Go Round"", ""Sister, Sister"" & ""Messin' With My Cru""."
+5860,1,Very Poor Service,"Twice now I have tried to buy this sweater which was listed as in stock, twice my transaction went through and I received my email confirmation saying they received my order, and twice I had the order cancelled on me. Not really sure how people can run a business that way."
+5861,2,vintage,1950s party favor for the kids. excellant idea to bring back retro toys for the kids. I think they enjoyed this product.
+5862,2,I laughed till I cried!! A great tribute to Harry Carey.,"I haven't laughed this hard in a long time. If you're looking for a biography of Harry Carey, this isn't it. A cornicopia of wonderfully funny antedotes about Harry Carey. Stonie and Barry Rosner did a great job. This is must for any Cub fan and any fan of Harry Carey."
+5863,1,uh-oh is right!,"Oh man, i am at a loss for words. This girl is unbelievable. She has that classic warped seventh grade film-reel tone vibe. Her pitch is almost there sometimes, but never on, and her sense of rhythm is worse than a tennis helmet. Oh man. I have a theory about Lumidee. A bunch hotshot execs up top at Universal had a bet that they could pass off a plain-looking tone-deaf girl with weak song writing and low-budge production as a pop superstar. All they had to do was slam it down the throats of the public. Somebody cashed in big-time on the sickest practical joke this year. Lumidee, are you in on this one too or are you just Uncle CEO's favorite niece? Anyway, go ahead and add this one to your shopping cart, you won't regret it; it's great fun to listen with a group of friends, play the album through and see if anyone can make it to the end without grimacing in pain when she butchers a note."
+5864,1,Very bad book,"This is not a book. It is a manual for the code the author has writen.The code is in .p format, not in .m format. So it doesn not let to learn anything.A very bad book. It is just a software manual"
+5865,1,Do Not Buy This!,Ok. Ill just say I love these movies. But I was one who waited for the Extended version to come out before I bought them. I did not double dip on the dvd sets and I wont do it for the Blu Ray either. If New Line would go ahead and release the Extended Cut on Blu Ray at the same time then Id highly recommend buying it. But do not let them dupe you into buying the theatrical cut unless your just not into the extended versions. Those of us who really enjoy the full story will wait and make New Line see we wont be bought out. Anyway avoid this and maybe New Line will give us what we really want.
+5866,1,pure garbage.,"This was one of the wackest cd's I've ever heard. Man, when I was in 5th grade, I loved hearing Helluva, the beat was great, especially sampled that oldies song mentioned previous, and they were talking about some chick they were obsessed about. But then the rest of the cd, weak weak lyrics, wack @$$ beats. I was like, this is MC Hammer level. I was so dissapointed, do not own this cd, because after one listen through every song, I was so disgusted. Save your money. This is a classic example of weak hip hop."
+5867,2,Works well,"Bought this Fax for a remote field office that has only one line for telephone and fax. Transfers calls from answering machine to fax automatically. Replaced higher cost ""big name"" fax machine that did not switch the calls well. Office has low volume of calls and fax's."
+5868,1,too small,"Good quality and design, but far too small for my average-size, 10-yr old son. The helmet is advertized as suitable for 8-12 yr old children. Not the case. Suitable for 6-8 yr old children would be a better description."
+5869,1,not unless you're a yeti,"seemed to be good quality, but the straps in the smallest position were still much too large for my 220lb relatively unathletic frame. I sent it back for a refund"
+5870,2,Powerful calculator thats easy for TI-82/TI-83 users,"If you've ever used a TI-82, a TI-83, a TI-86, a TI-92, or a TI-89 :-), you'll be very fermiliar with the TI-89. Most commands are interchangable with the other TI graphing calculators. Since most classes use TI-82s or TI-83s, you can easily adapt the instructions of the teacher for use on the TI-89.The calculator is actually powered by the same processor as the Macintosh Plus/SE, so it is very fast when graphing, solving equasions, or playing games. The screen is sharp enough to hold several expressions and answers or display a smooth view of a curve.Functions include the excellent CAS (try ""solve(0=1x^2+2x+3,x)""), basic scientific math functions, programs (games), matricies (like a primitive spreadsheet), graphing, statistics, and many other functions."
+5871,2,a rare and fortunate collection,"This is one of the greatest collection of words ever printed under one cover. The poems around Howl are also some of Ginsberg's best, some are:""A Supermarket in California"", the second most anthologized Ginsberg poem, ""An Asphodel"", a beautiful little (short) love poem about what i believe to be a tulup or a dafodil (look it up, tho, it has symbolic meaning) and ""Song"" which is a very sincere and beautiful poem about love that made me cry it was so simply powerful. It is terrific to have this collection of poems in a small, nice-looking book; its portable. You can turn to any page and find something extraordinary."
+5872,1,Broke witin a week.,"This yo-yo was awful. after the original friction stickers wore, i bought some more friction stickers from the duncan website. after putting on the new friction stickers, the string would slide off the ball bearing and i would have to keep taking it apart and putting the string on the ball bearing.DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT!"
+5873,2,Good Buy,"This is just a pretty standard gig bag. Padding is pretty thin, but great for my 14 year olds beginner guitar just to use to pack back and forth to lessons!!"
+5874,1,noise,My employer purchased this AC for my office. Noise level is impossible. The manufacturer refused to help.
+5875,2,"Love, Hope, Faith:A Personal Journey Through Cancer","A great read and heartfelt journey of the experiences felt from the sister of her brothers battle with this devastating disease. You will feel the pain and sorrow, yet her faith stays strong and helps her through it."
+5876,2,Wonderful Painting Book,Love the book. Received promptly. Good condition. Very informative. Small book but it has a lot of informationand the pictures are beautiful.
+5877,1,Company needs to improve this neat idea .... stopped working,This product was nice for the first 20 or so pages and then it just stop working and there customer service is a joke this product is a good idea but needs major improvement for what were paying it needs alot of improvement. I have warned you all about my experience the decision is yours.
+5878,2,commentary and sermons from the Psalms,Warren Wiersbe does his usual fine job in this book on Psalms chapters 90-150. The book arrived on time as ordered.
+5879,2,fiction based on non-fiction event,"excellent writing style, this fiction classic based on non-fiction events in the mid-west explores non-traditional relationships while exposing true-life adventures.wonderful backup of Horse Whisperer. I love it because is soo true-blue."
+5880,1,Missable,"What's good: that black gloppy stuff. Some good CGI there, and up to usual standards in the web-slinging and -swinging.What's not: pretty much everythinng else. Dialog like ""I like being bad,"" professional and amorous jealousies that an eight-grader would find puerile, and a positively painful attempt by Mr. Parker to act as the black glop recommends.I like comic book movies, some of them, and I liked the earlier Spiderman movies. I just don't like this.//wiredweird"
+5881,1,Knorr needs new recipes....,"When my son had Knorr Pasta Sides Beef 2 weeks ago, he puked it up 2 hours after he ate the stuff. He told me it was good stuff, so I thought I would pick up Knorr Pasta Sides Chicken, and guess what, he puked that up too! But, it was good stuff, according to him. He can tolerate the rice, but he pukes up the pasta sides. Perhaps Knorr might recall all the pasta sides as they may have a puking agent in them?"
+5882,2,Amongst the Label's elite,"Steady Mobb'n's ""Black Mafia"" was VERY different from the cd's that No Limit put out in '98. (No Limit had 22 releases alone in 1998) What makes it so different could be one of many reasons, #1- They are from Oakland, CA....not New Orleans. #2- They can rhyme over any beat. or is it #3- They are just better emcees than anyone in the No Limit camp?! Either or, this cd was monumental to thier career. The highlight include ""No One"", ""Crosses Artist"", ""MG Theme"" and others."
+5883,2,Like finding the Holy Grail.,"For a long time indeed, I've been hunting for a dictionary that contains _all_ the most obscure words I stumble upon. Then, at last, I found this. I could hardly believe it. Kudos to Random House for publishing this. But why is it soo hard to find? I spent years browsing through book stores, and I can only remember _one_ book store that had it. Why not make some more of this? The world _needs_ a good dictionary, and Webster's always been my favourite."
+5884,2,Predictable but kept me reading,The budding relationship between a single mother devoted to her language-challenged son and a volunteer fireman wasn't made in heaven. But well-meaning friends and family may defeat it.Sparks has such a knack for writing likable characters in realistic situations that even the predictable storyline and denouement kept me reading and reaching for the kleenex.
+5885,1,"All style, no substance","And I didn't even like the style. The characters are shallow and the plot is thin and contrived in this collection of loosely-strung stories of sheer male fantasy. Some books inspire me, some books entertain me. This book was a total bore, inspiring me to nothing but annoyance at having spent 20-some bucks on the hardcover edition, and then wonder that this guy ever got a story into the New Yorker. Don't believe the hype on this one - the emperor has no clothes."
+5886,1,Cheap Zoom Lever,"Complete disappointment. The camcorder has so many features, but the zoom lever easily popped off and left the lens unable to zoom. Panasonic would not stand by their product and I was unable to get the camera fixed without a substantial fee. After four calls I was unsatisfied and the camera still cannot zoom. At a store I found that the zoom lever easily comes off. Avoid this product. There are too many cheap factors that can ruin the great features. Technical and customer support are useless."
+5887,1,Motorola OEM BR50 Battery,"Purchased battery for Razr cell phone. Charged it fully, and it failed to hold charge for more than a few hours. Good price, but lousy product.Seller shipped another battery pronto at no charge, which I appreciate. The second battery, date stamped 10/17/2008 in new wrapper will hold a charge for only about 12 hours. Don't like to bother seller again, but somehow need a better battery."
+5888,1,Don't go here!,"The pedals look good, but are impossible to install, it makes Rubic's Cube look simple. Plus once you do get them on, they don't stay there, so if you want custom pedals, ""Don't go here"""
+5889,2,A great sea story...,"Douglas Reeman is a master at weaving a gripping story and placing it in historical context. His own experiences contribute to that I'm sure. There are not many novels about the small boat war in Europe, so this one is at the top of my list."
+5890,1,Wake Up!!,"Seriously people wake up Mobb Deep have not had a good album since ""Hell On Earth"". Prodigy is a much better producer than rapper and Havoc....give me a break.This Album will sell because its on G-Unit and thats the whole point but as far as skills Mobb Deep hasn't been the same since Pac ripped them a new one and that was 10 years ago. So if you are a Mobb Deep fan I don't know what you're complaining about this album sounds like all the garbage they've put out this decade."
+5891,2,Great pocket guide I can take anywhere,"I find that the pocket guide is a very handy information source, with 'to-the-point' tips and guidelines on how to navigate your way through a complex Lean Office transformation. I use the pocket book every day to keep my clients on track and ensure my projects deliver to expectations."
+5892,2,Charcoal Grilling made better,This product provides the ability to start the coals without chemicals or other starter products and have them ready for cooking when you are ready to begin cooking on the charcoal grill.
+5893,1,A Sad Surprise,"I've read several of the cliff Janeway novels and thoroughly enjoyed them. They not only held my interest all the way through...I became involved in the plot and with cliff Janeway on his journey's. The unraveling of his mysteries regarding rare book collections had depth and the information given by this talented author added to the suspense.Unfortunately, all of the marvelous situations I named for Dunning's other works in this series were sadly lacking in this particular entry. It quite simply didn't hold my interest. I was unable to get involved with Janeway as I had in the previous books. It was a sad surprise for me as I was already to get into another great adventure with cliff Janeway.So all I can say to this gifted author is...nice try but no cigar.BTW...I did listen to this book on CD read/narrated by George Guidall. Even G.G.'s excellent performance could not save this book."
+5894,1,I could not use,"I could not use because the CD is damaged, therefore I can not say as the product is not in question"
+5895,1,Here's my two cents,It's hard for me to write this review considering the fact that I have never even held the book. I just wanted the oppertunity to be the first one to write a review for it. At least the cover is nice to look at.
+5896,1,Connie,DO NOT BUY THIS STROLLER!!! The seats are horrible!! The seats are just a metal tubular frame with fabric sewn around them and they are very short in height. In other words your child doesn't have to be very big before they would be hitting their head on the frame of the seat. My twins were only 2 months old when I purchased this stroller and they were 22 inches long and their heads were just a few inches from hitting the seat frame!! I returned this stroller.
+5897,2,Great fit for deep mattress,"I ordered these sheets after trying a number of others on our LA Baby crib mattress and having no luck- all had pockets that were too shallow. These sheets not only fit with a little room to spare (even after washing/drying), but are soft enough for baby's skin. Great sheets for the money! I ordered two more."
+5898,1,"Blah,blah,blah","After reading the first chapter of this book, I was pretty sure I knew how the victim died. She was talked to death. The Shape of Snakes the first mystery I've read, where absolutely nothing happens - except talk. and talk. and more talk. I only hope that Ms. Walters steers clear of the screenplay. The only thing more boring than a book with no characters in motion, is the movie version of that book. I would ask for my money back, but when I reached the last page ,I felt it was my duty to prevent another reader from making the same mistake I had. The book now rests on the bottom of the Long Island Sound."
+5899,1,What the... Where is my Brat Prince? I give it NO STAR!,"Well what can I say, I truly don't even know where to start.Where Anne is the Brat Prince of old, where is our Lestat, what have you done to Lestat? A saint Anne our Brat Prince wishes to be a saint he wishes to possess a soul... what a joke. Quine Blackwood, Mona , Rowan, & Michael Mayfair, a few ghosts and some shattered Taltos, this is who you end the sage with... where Anne is Louie, Pandora, Armand, David, and the rest. Where have they all gone, have they been forgotten by you? Well not by me. ""Blood Canticle"" was a joke along with ""Blackwood Farm"". No story, no plot, no action, no feeling, no heart, no soul, it was empty I am left feeling heart broken. Sad is my heart. Where is my Lestat of old, where is our Vampire family? Come out, come out, where ever you are?"
+5900,2,"Digital Thermometer, Timer and Clock","Worka well but didn't come with very good directions on its use. Fortunately, it was not that hard to figure out. I like the magnet on the back that you can use to stick to the range hood for easy access as well as seeing the timer from a distance."
+5901,2,this is very very funny!,"This is a great album! Fat is good but not the greatest. I am sure that tons of people will disagree though. Eat It is great. But my top favorites are Ricky, Living with a Hernia, Dare To Be Stupid,One More Minute, Addicted to Spuds, and like A Surgeon.But they are all good. Make sure you get this one."
+5902,1,Error,This is not a paperback book. This is a deck of Fairy Oracle Tarot Cards.If you know where the book can be found. Please email me at PaulineSG@aol.com
+5903,2,HISTORY FOR HISTORIANS,"THIS IS A GREAT BOOK IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN THE SUBJECT OF SLAVERY AND ANTI-SLAVERY. THE AUTHOR, WITHOUT QUESTION ONE OF OUR GREATEST HISTORIANS OF THE SUBJECT, GOES BEYOND THE ARTIFICIAL LINE OF THE CALANDER IN RELATION TO OUR CIVIL WAR AND OFFERS AN INSIGHTFUL VIEW OF THE EFFECT OF SLAVERY IN THE PERIOD LEADING UP TO THE FOUNDING OF OUR COUNTRY. tHIS IS A GREAT BOOK FOR THE SERIOUS STUDENT, NOT FOR THE CASUAL READER."
+5904,1,"Big hat, no cattle","I had several annoying adware programs that I wanted to get rid of, so I purchased Norton, thinking that since they were the big kid on the block that their software would be able to handle some run-of -the-mill adware programs. Wrong. It takes a very long time to run, and even though it would say that it found the offending software, it was unable to delete it. A friend told me about AVG Anit-virus software by Grisoft (which for some reason Amazon does not handle) and it did an amazing job and it runs much faster. I ended up removing the Norton program from my computer since it was not providing any real useful service."
+5905,2,Pura Vida Map,"This handy little map got us through all the potholes and crazy mountain roads of Costa Rica. We traveled quite a bit and were able to navigate quite well. People told us we were crazy for not renting a GPS, but we didn't want to take the adventure out of our travels. It opens and folds very easily and the waterproof material made it quite resilient against packing it in and out of a backpack. I would recommend this to anyone traveling through Costa Rica."
+5906,2,Outstanding!,Today I received the Cadillac Eldorado bike that I ordered.It arrived much quicker than I thought it would.I found no dents or dings on the bike.Was easy for hubby to assemble.Is very pretty in pink.I am very pleased and happy with this bike.
+5907,1,Not your typical fairy tale,"I bought these books expecting some romance, what i didn't expect was all the abuse that Beauty deals with. All of the spanking and sexual torture just really turned me off. I can not see how anyone would except being treated like this. Maybe that's why i can not get into the BDSM lifestyle. I have read other BDSM books after Rice's Beauty trilogy and i found that i liked them a whole lot more than her books.And i also hated the fact that Beauty was just this mindless sex addict who went from man to man and the Prince at the beginning of the first book was barely in the story. She loved him and then quickly went onto another man and loved him, then went to another one. I know its just a story but i just hated Beauty by the end of the books. I read most of the first book, and i skimmed the other two. I was not happy with the ending, very disappointed."
+5908,1,Does not work,"I purchased this one to replace the maxwell brand one I first owned and it does not work. It switches back and forth like the tape needs to be flipped. The music plays but it cuts out every 3 seconds as the cassette tries to ""flip""."
+5909,2,Malta,This is a very interesting story about a photo recon pilot who got stuck at Malta enroute to Egypt. Much of the film appears to be authentic scenes of ships blowing up and bombs being dropped on Malta. As usual Alec Guiness is first rate. Many of the British period actors are in the film whom you will recognize. I liked it a lot. It is a much better film than many war flicks even though it has a lot of models being used in the air action.
+5910,1,Didnt fit my faucets,"Both of my faucets are from Home Depot. Nothing fancy. The adapter didn't fit either.I did manage a work around for draining by connecting to my outdoor faucet. BTW, the instructions didnt tell you turn off the faucet once you have your siphon. Dont forget or you will waste allot of water.I haven't filled the bed yet but pretty sure its going to be damn cold with water from the outdoor.. Considering filling from the water heater but that might be too hot.In short, it was useless for me when using with my two indoor sink faucets..It wasn't a complete failure, thus two stars."
+5911,2,Storytime Princess Castle Playset,"We got this for my daughter (5) for Christmas and she loves it. I got it when it was on sale for cheap,cheap. I would have never brought it if it was $90. The stickers that came with it was a little pain but nothing like I have had to do in the past with other toys. It is very easy to set up comes in 2 pieces. The horse and carriage along with the dolls are beautiful!!!."
+5912,2,Love My Brest Friend,I am absolutely in love with My Brest Friend pillow. No other product compares to it. I am exclusively breastfeeding (no bottles or pacifiers) and have been using it for 2 months so far and many more to come. I ordered an additional slipcover for it so I have an extra to put on when one needs washed. I love all the cute slipcover designs. They wash great and haven't faded. I even accidentally put one in the dryer and it didn't even shrink.
+5913,2,The relationship review,"I think that this book is phenominal. I like how it really gives detailed description of the chararacters. I was hooked as soon as I was introduced to the two different girls (Sal and Phoebie) in the first chapter. I am a girl who likes to read about relationships. In this book Sharon Creech does a great job introducing us to characters of all ages. As you read the book you feel as if they are your best friend or your next door neighbor. The story gives us readers a great feeling of family and how important family is. Sal goes through many events that eventually strengthen her bond with the people around her. I think that many young adults would find this book amusing. However, I do believe that girls would enjoy it more because it has to do with emotions and feelings. It is a book that I will definitley use in my classroom someday!"
+5914,2,Fabulous!,I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!! It so easy to use! I love that I can quickly take video of anything and when I get home just upload it to my computer and watch it. I don't even think I'm going to get a video camera right now because I after I get the 1GB memory card I can take 80mins of video. All through this little camera. And of course taking pictures is a snap and the detail in the pics are great. Did I mention I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!! :-)
+5915,2,Time to weigh in,"Great product. Accurate, sturdy construction, good price. Grandson weighs himself every morning with consistent accurate results of height and weight. The counter weights to extend the maximum weight measurement are a nice option. Have used bathroom scales for years, but they were never accurate. I give this product five stars."
+5916,2,Better than creme,I am husband of account holder. I have used this for a year or so. I like the fact that it is lighter than shaving cremes and gives a comfortable shave. I use it with Neutorgene Mens Anti Aging product. Has really helps my face. A bonus is so much less messy and wife loves the scent.
+5917,1,Austin Bazaar - Worst Service ever !!!!!,I orderded a natural color violin online and received a white color violin hence returned. I requested to cancel receied the return slip but after 2 weeks I receive the same white color violin again.
+5918,1,mp3 cover with clip,"When I ordered this mp3 cover I was under the impression that it would fit any mp3 player c200 series, my mp3 is c280 so I thought it would fit. It does not, the word series should not used with this item as it make people think it will work for any of the c200 mp3 players. The cover was way too small and the buttons did not match up with the buttons on my mp3. The craftsmanship is good on the product but will not work for me. I recommend this cover only for mp3 c200 type all others will not fit."
+5919,1,Shameless Rip-Off!,"I've read all 6 books in this series, in order. They're all nice cozies, and easy to read. I'd give this book at least 4 stars too, if it weren't for the fact that the plot in this one is a shameless rip-off of Agatha Christie's ""They Do It With Mirrors"".If it were only how the murder was done, it could just be coincidence -- two creative minds getting the same idea. But the entire setup is the same -- a large number of buildings for a group of resident teenagers with problems, one of the spouses using too much of the other one's money to keep the place going, a problem teenager with a parent fixation, and on and on.Did the author and the editors really think that readers today aren't familiar with Agatha Christie's books?"
+5920,1,not the same thing,What I recieved is not what the picture shows! Could not pick what month I needed. It did not come close to what i was looking for.
+5921,1,Conversation blows,"I'm a big, big Ed McBain fan from way back, though a bit leery of the author when he puplishes under his real name. If you set aside the graphic sexuality deplicted and gratuitous profanity, there is little left in this book. The police and district attorney machinations are very routine and the relationship difficulies deplicted in the prinicipal marriage are trite. The resolution of the affair is also a bit rushed and convenient. Not one of his best works under any name."
+5922,2,One Hundred Days: The Memoires of the Falklands Battle Group...,The book was received in excellent condition. The story is well written and very interesting. Would recommend it highly.
+5923,2,Best in the COD series!,Cant go wrong......this is one of those COMPLETE shooters where the single AND multiplayer are both extremely fun.This is also one of those games that are heavily discounted right now so keep an eye out for $39.99 deals.
+5924,1,soggy pie,"not sure what i am doing wrong, but expected world class pie and my pie came out soggy. IMHO this plate holds no magical properties"
+5925,2,Powerful story!,"For all my male middle school students who can't really ""get into"" the Anne Frank's Diary, this is for them. Also for anyone wondering what happened after families like Anne's fell under the control of the Nazis. I had the privilege of hearing the author tell parts of his story in person days after reading it. Wow! My perspective of the Holocaust has been changed forever."
+5926,1,durability challenged,mine was on the floor and I knocked it over a few times. while laying on it's face it would lose time and eventually freeze due to the mechanism being out of the intended position relative to gravity I suppose. I was able to get it going a couple times then it just quit. I removed the face and tried to get restart the second hand and that would work for a few hours then it would freeze again so now it's in the trash and I bought a seiko. if you leave it carefully positioned on a table this clock might work forever but if you happen to knock it over and don't immediately set it aright it just might die on you. not too impressive to me
+5927,1,Please make it stop,"Hey record companies, don't you think its a little late to be snapping up your own version of Avril Lavigne? This cd is such a cliche--whispery vocals that explode into raging screams, ""chunk-a-chunk-chunk"" guitars, and whiney lyrics about how miserable life is. Don't worry though, pop culture trends die out quick. Kelly Clarkson will be back cooking hamburgers for a living before you know it."
+5928,2,HIM IS SOOO AWESOME!!,"OMG!! I BOUGHT THIS ALBUM AND I LOVE IT! I AM A HUGE HIM FAN AND WELL THIS WAS THE ONLY ONE I WAS MISSING! ITS KICKS SOOO MUCH REAR END! HIS INFERNAL MAJESTY IS THE GREATEST, I THINK, BAND ON THIS ENTIRE PLANET!"
+5929,1,Does not circulate air well.,"The fan in the bottom is not able to blow the air all the way through the seat. Therefore, it does not work."
+5930,1,Not for Israel,I was going to buy this to power a Sony SW radio I have as I try to spend a month in Israel every year. The Sony weighs a bit and I would have been very sorry to take an adapter with me that did not work. Thanks for the advice.
+5931,1,Not great,"I, like most girls, only read the book for the ""dirty"" parts. (Which, now that I'm older, don't seem so dirty and descriptive.) I am so surprised that so many people identified with the characters. I still think they're bland and one-dimensional; I never felt for one instant that they could be real people with feelings and emotions. Although they're suppossedly in ""love"", we never really see them dating or falling in love. It just seems to jump straight to the sex. Another part that surprised me was how unconcerned Katharine is when she finds out her boyfriend's had VD from unprotected sex. She just seems to shrug it off. Although it was written in the 70's, the dialogue and conversations don't seem realistic either. Maybe it's just me, but I think this book could have been better."
+5932,2,From Someone Who Knows Absolutely Nothing About Computers...,"I find this book an easy read enabling me to learn a whole lot about the internet and media today. The book is also very informative providing many references and illustrated graphs and charts. And again, from an older student's perspective and who also is not computer savy, I enjoy their glossary of terms in the back in addition to the feature allowing one to take quizzes online at their website."
+5933,1,A great disappointment...,"This is the first bad product I have seen from Denon. But it is really bad...I confirm all the problems encountered by other reviewers. The Docking Station worked for 10 minutes with a Denon 2807 and then, with no warning, stopped working and all I get now is a ""Not Connect"" message. I did everything in the instructions (i.e.: put the switch under the docking station in dock control, changed the Denon receiver setup in Ipod Assign to DVP where it was plugged, etc). I even updated the Ipod software version and did a factory reset in the receiver afterwards, only to get more ""Not Connect"" messages with 2 different Ipods...Oh! One last thing, the S-video cable really HAS little mouses marked on the ends! So they are probably using PS/2 cables as S-video cables!I will probably return it."
+5934,1,pure non funk 2,"funk is that kinda vibe you eat hotwings and groove at fish fries funk is when you come out of church's chicken jamming, sorry but half this cd is not funk, d train is bubblegum pop, gap band outstanding is not funky enough, but hits, why is queen on here they was not a funk group, the whispers no way hose, carl carlton's she's a bad mama jama is not a funk classic, i always said these funk compilations does the artists injustice, if you wanna learn what funk is check out the original recordings well i'll list a few, the entire catalog, and entourage of james brown, parliament-funkadelic, sly stone, larry graham, bootsy collins, barkays, ohio players, chaka khan and rufus, cameo,curtis mayfield, mandrill, earth, wind fire, war, the list is endless."
+5935,1,"Can you say ""special effects""?","There are two basic schools of thought on Starship Troopers (the film): those who saw it for the special effects (5 stars) and those who came for the story (-5 stars). In a nutshell, these are the most oft-recurring scenes (in that order): man getting shot in the head; people making love; people getting eaten by giant insects; people destroyed by interstellar asteroids; people getting shot by insect excrement out of orbit(those bugs have awfully good aim); more dead people; people whose brains are sucked out by a ""Brain Bug"" (actually referred to as such in the film). The book focused on the flaws of a perfect Nazi-type society and by the end the reader almost begins hating the humans and appreciating the bugs. The film was about gore."
+5936,2,Hard to find,I bought this set back in the eighties and have been looking for another copy for years. This was my lucky find. Hours in the car listening with my daughter or was it me listening to it with her? I never tired of it and you all know how hard that can be.
+5937,1,Do not buy this game,"When i bought this game i was very happy,it looked cool and if it was anything like the last ones it would play alright too.I was wrong,DEAD wrong.It only played for about an hour then I shut it off.About 15 minutes later I turned it back on and it would not load,that hour i played was horrible.Glitchy sounds,people and most of all bad graphics.Do not buy this game,amazon should be ashamed for letting a piece of crap like this get sold."
+5938,2,Narnia: Prince Caspian,"It was a great choice between BD and DVD, of course I bought the BD. As you all know the quality is far more better than regular DVD. The movie had a pretty good opening to and it was very catchy. Story has a pretty good plot to it but it wasn't as good as the first movie. there were more action on the first movie compared to this. All in all it was a great and fun movie to watch."
+5939,2,Can't live without it!,"I bought this thermometer for my husband and he LOVES IT! We have a smoker and we just fed the cord threw the top. No more opening the smoker and losing heat. We smoked some tenderloin and cooking summer sausage tonight. He can be downstairs or upstairs and still gets a great reading. At first we didn't have a signal. But we replaced the batteries in both the hand held and the transmitter and boom, strong signal. I would recommend this for anyone who grills or smokes. No worries and you know when it's cooked to perfection. The only problem is now all our friends and neighbors want to come to our house for dinner!"
+5940,2,Beautiful Collection!,"If you are a Bond fan, this is the Blu-ray set you've been waiting for!I'm not usually one to care about boxes/packaging, but case is pretty nice and I appreciate the compact packaging (versus having individual cases for each of the 22 movies on your shelf). Movies are presented in chronological order and next to each is an image of the year it was released and the Bond girl. I also appreciate the empty space in the back earmarked specifically for Skyfall (yay, another case I don't need to keep).My one and only tiny gripe is that on the back of the box where it lists the names of the movies, it lists ""Skyfall (Coming 2013)"". I wish they had left the ""Coming 2013"" part off just for continuity with the rest of the titles, but again, not really a big deal."
+5941,1,What the...,"What in the world are we trying to do here? Forget all the hype from the religious sect about the story, there is no story. One's soul exists as an animal that travels with them?? The; to top it all off, there is no ending to the movie. I guess the production team (New Line) wants to sell the ending as another trip to the theater and more DVD sales.Not worth the trip to the theater, and no need to desire to own this one."
+5942,1,One good band,"To me the 90's were deffined by one simple name... Nirvana. Dont get me wrong. The 90's had some great bands (REM, Chilie Peppers, Pearl Jam). But still, you cannot deeny how much Nirvana carried the music world in the 90's. When Cobain commited suicide in '94 (RIP), the music world was lost,and was carried by only 2 or 3 good bands."
+5943,1,My 6 year old was very disappointed,"Another disappointing Christmas gift this year, 2005. My 6 year old found it boring and hard to follow. I told her to forget about the video and we will just make up our on ballet moves. So I think that helped a little. But I would not waist your money."
+5944,1,"Flat, boring and a waste of time",This book just teaches you how to have a worse eating disorder. The author creates a simplistic view of the forces behind eating disorders.
+5945,2,Great Lamp for the Price,"When decorating my brother-inlaw's condo, we needed a a tall lamp next to the lounge part of the couch. I looked everywhere, in stores and online, and was so happy to find this lamp, as height, size and color of shade were perfect next to the lounge part of the couch. I was even more happy when we opened the box to find it was very well made, with bulbs that could be adjusted for different lighting effects, and bright enough for reading. It looks like a $400.00 lamp you would find in upscale furniture stores."
+5946,2,Power cord adds voltage zip to electic razor,"Finally, power in an electric shaver. Plugging into the 110-120 mains may seem out-of-date, but this direct, full-power makes a difference. The rotary blades cut crisply and swiftly ... never pausing even on the toughfest beard. You can hear the blades sawing the hairs as if they were inside a lawnmower. I'm amazed that this relatively low price device can give a shave comparable to 4-blade wet razors. I still have a battery Braun for travel, but day-to-day this has been a well worth the price.Takes about 2 weeks for beard and skin to adjust to the cutting closeness.(I recommend also using Remington ""FaceSaver"" pre-shave powder stick. This handy inexpensive cosmetic facilitates glide and skin smoothness. Found it at Walmart. Comes in a plastic stick container. Push case bottom to apply a thin layer grease-less talc which helps whirring blades glide over skin.)"
+5947,2,THE Indispensible guide to the ecology of Florida,"For more than a decade, 'Ecosystems of Florida' has become the standard by which all other books on Florida's unique ecology are judged. The flora, fauna, soil, climate, and hydrological characteristics of all of Floridas ecosystems are explained in exhaustive yet accessible detail. The book also has general information about the soil, climate, and geological history of Florida that helps the reader explore the ecosytem chapters with a broader understanding of the ecology of the state as a whole. Concluding chapters tie in the influence of people to the history of Florida's ecology and explain the role people will take in shaping or breaking Florida's natural areas in the future. This book has become more than a reference to me. It presents a very complex set of information in a clear, easily-read, and entertaining format that makes it hard to put down."
+5948,1,Celebrity is an ego trip,"NSync first really good album was ""No Strings Attached"" it was catchy with wonderful dance musice and ballads. Now comes the much anticipated ""Celebrity"" what a let down. Thought that this album would be a step up for NSync instead it was a step down. Seems like the boys don't sing enough, and are very ego oriented in the song ""Celebrity"". I love NSync but.......was very disappointed in this album. Hope the next is back on track and better then ""Celebrity"""
+5949,1,40% failure rate,"I have bought many brands of DVD-R in the past 7 years and these are by far the worst. 2 out of 5 fail. I would recommend TDK brand instead, which also provide more writeable space on the disk itself (the HPs are red, with a lot of graphics on them)."
+5950,1,"Disappointed, so far...","So far, this has been a disappointment. Shipped promptly, but the item was not the DBE 1440 with the LaRousse Dictionary, as the ad specified, it's the Merriam-Webster Dictionary.Here's the catch: Item doesn't work. Can't get it to turn on, at all! Hoping to hear back quickly from vendor, as I need this item for a business trip!"
+5951,2,Good wombs have borne bad sons,"This is a compelling story told in the voice of a mother whose son has committed a mass killing at his high school. The narrator is a sophisticated elitist, the editor of travel books that pour scorn on package tourists and unadventurous stay-at-homes. She is clever and sarcastic. In the end there is a suggestion that there is a link between her elitism and a Nietzschean (did I spell that right) contempt for the common herd that drives her son to exult in cruelty.Can fiction explain things about human motivation that straight biography cannot? What went on in the minds of Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold? What must it have been like to the parent of one of them. Several books have tried to give us answers.I came to this after having read Dave Cullen's and Jeff Kass's books about Columbine and Peter Langdon's "" Why Kids Kill"" and Mark Ames's ""Going Postal."" None of those had the answers and neither did this, but it kept me reading."
+5952,2,Kids love these Gabba Guys (only they know why),"My grandkids ask for this frequently altho I do not provide much in the way of TV watching. There is a positive message, no guns or violence or themes that are not age appropriate. The characters look after each other and encourage development of empathy. Still, the dancing around is really silly (from an adult stand point) and somewhat constant. Also, the guy with one huge eye creeps me out but kids don't seem to mind him at all. All in all, good for some down time when needed."
+5953,1,"Does not capture the mood or characters of ""Eddie's Bastard""","I was disappointed with this sequel. It covers Billy's quest to find his mother. The plot was very contrived and just didn't ring true to me for some reason.Billy ends up in Santa Fe to look for the mother who abandoned him. He meets Consuelo, a singer and they fall in love. Billy locates his mother, but the woman he has created in his mind, can she meet his expectations?? I thought the love story was a bit simple, as was the ending.Kowalski would have had to do a smash up job with a sequel to top ""Eddie's Bastard"". He did not succeed, but I will likely read more of his work in the future, since sequels are usually a letdown in most cases. I didn't hate the book, or the plot, but it left me empty, therefore I give this book 2/5 stars."
+5954,2,This is the best book of all time.,"This is the best book of all time...by far. Not only the best Tolkien book, but the best book ever. All of the boring, unnecessary detail is cut out and it becomes a greater work of art. It is 100% plot. The characters are brilliant, and it really makes an impression. This is just a no nonsense, excellently written, good book."
+5955,2,Come Back Shane!!!,"Yes this kid is annoying. Yes it is outdated. Yes the ""Davy Crockett"" bucksin outfit is disconcerting. But watch the movie again. If you had to go to Mars with one movie to demonstrate what an American western is all about, how could you find a more classic example than Shane? Are there better westerns? Depends on your taste. Is there a better example of what an American audience wanted and expected from a Western in the Western heyday of the 1950s? I submit that by the measure of its time, 1953, this is the ""Gone with the Wind"" of Westerns. Hey, even Clint Eastwood holds it in such high regard that he lifted scenes virtually intact from Shane for his 1985 ""Pale Rider."""
+5956,2,Works well. Runs cool (cat dislikes it),"It just works and works well. Compared to my old switch, this device runs much cooler which is not appreciated by our cat because she can't use it as a tummy warmer."
+5957,1,4 stars for the acting,I give this move 2 stars ( ** ) Well acted but very disappointing as entertainment.Josh Lucas's performance is truly outstanding and the supporting cast was awesome.But it just didn't hit the mark.
+5958,1,ChemRIPoff,"I should have listened to the negative reviews about this product. You only get like 20 or more of the SAME practice problems for each subject and there is no ""tutoring"". No where in the product description does it state that you should already KNOW chemistry. To top it all off, the software feels dated. Forty dollars for this program.... Its not worth 5. I would rather have someone punch me in the face before getting ripped off like this again. I can't believe all the positive reviews either, very fishy."
+5959,2,the ventures rock and roll forever,just saw the ventures in new york at the bbking blues cafe still playing great after 50 years keep rockin
+5960,1,Airzooka hard to aim,"The AirZooka is a fun toy, but pretty much for adults and older kids. I got it for my 6 year old who thought it looked awesome. Unfortunately I don't think he's ever hit anything more than a foot away with it. The adults after practice can usually hit something after 6 or 7 tries, but the ad saying you can surprise someone with a blast of air is not accurate. It makes a lot of noise since its a thick plastic piece getting slapped by a rubber band. Its fun, but not the easiest thing in the world to use."
+5961,2,"IT""S PERFECT!","The bag is great, it snaps into the carrier and is more rigid than other bags I have owned so it doesn't flop over like some. It holds quite a bit of stuff, I do wish it had the ability to expand though... Best price found was through Amazon.com (as usual!)"
+5962,1,Cute idea.....bad product,"Set this up, and it literally spun around one time, and then quit. There wasn't enough air blowing to even make a bubble anyways. Bad product - save your money and time and pass on this product."
+5963,1,Lid does not fit,"Jug is nice, heavy glass. Like the jug. Unfortunately I wanted one with lid, and this lid does not fit. Nice jar, cheap lid."
+5964,2,Problems with these speakers fixed,I'm no audiophile but the sound coming out of these is just fine for me. They look really sweet too.It's really really important you take a very close look at the connectors for the two tiny satellite speakers.The plastic surrounding the 3.5mm jack on one is square and the other is triangular and they ONLY fit in the correct recepticle on the back of the subwoofer. If you put them in the wrong recepticle and in the wrong rotation then they won't push all the way in and you will have no sound.I've just spent an hour thinking mine were bust and I suspect every other one of the problems on here are the same thing.Good luck guys!
+5965,1,Beware of foreword promises,"The foreword assures you that the authors have posted scripts in http:\\www.rallenhome.com\booksWell, don't hold your breath. It says ""coming soon"" ( since mid 95) .If you expect the authors to answer your email seeking clarification you'll be disappointed.Julio Kuplinsky"
+5966,1,Very Poorly Designed,"Good idea, poorly designed. The display is not appropriate for serious workouts. The premise is that you can see your power output becuase the Kinetic trainers are so accurate. However, while you are observing your power, you cannot see your cadence. So, you can't accurately maintain your rpm and power at the same time, but both aspects are important when training. I returned the product because it didn't meet my needs."
+5967,1,Useless,"Rented this for a course and never had to use it. Every content is searchable via search engines (terminologies), and the concepts are obvious-down-straight-forward."
+5968,2,Best Revenge: How Theater Saved My Life and Has Been Killing,"This is a terrific book. It's a great read, a marvelous look at the struggles of an artist trying to make a living in the theater, and a must buy for anyone who plans to make the theater his or her life."

+5971,1,Not so all in one printer,"Ordered the Canon printer as a christmas gift for my girlfrined. When I received the printer, it was still in the original manufactures box that you would get from a office depot if you had bought it from the store. The box's outside was beat up, and generally trashed. Also it had rained that day, so when I got home from work I found the box at my front door and it was also wet. When Christmas came we tried it out, the fax machine part of the all in one printer did not work. After several attempts with the Canon service reps, we are supposedly getting a new printer in the mail. Hopefully it will not be received in a wet damaged box,and broken. Who's at fault for the broken printer? Is it Amazon, Canon, or UPS who delievered the printer???? You decide!"
+5972,2,Best trap ever!,"Who thought it was possible to get so excited over a mouse trap? But we live in the country, and mice can really be a problem. So I ordered 4 traps and set them up all over the house. In the last month we have caught over 45 mice! One of the traps caught 6 mice in one day. They are so easy to load and empty, I was able to stop asking my husband to do it because I could do it myself! I recommend these traps to anyone, male or female, who is dealing with a rodent problem. They work!"
+5973,1,Poor Quality,"The handle on the item is not long enough to swivel to all 3 positions. You need to remove it and re-attach it to set it for the feeding position. One of the knobs broke in the first two hours of play. This toy was being used by a 5 year old, well with in the age range recommended. Save yourself the aggravation of buying a toy that doesn't work or last."

+5975,1,Not Even a Hope,"I tried the IBM software many years ago and experienced much pain. I had the same experience today with iListen. If I dictated beyond the grave, this program wouldn't work. The results were so bad, I immediately understood there was no hope. It's so bad, there was no place to start from. I trained it for a couple of hours. It said everything was great. Then I tried to dictate an email. The results were undecipherable garbage. And any attempt to correct it yielded worse garbage. The hope has not been realized. In fact, the hope is not even within a hope of being realized."

+5977,1,Van Morrison Has A Great Musical History!,"This man has really made many classic albums!Listen to Astral Weeks, Moondance and Irish Heartbeat which are must-buy for all Van Morrison fans.This man is a very skillful player, compositor and performer!Unfornately, Magic Time is the worst record this man has ever cut. Maybe he his losing his creativity and he should soon stop his awesome musical career. Every artist has their own house of holy and Van Morrison has made his own!"

+5981,2,SMOOTH AND SATISFYING,"I used to buy Mocha Java coffee at Freed's here in San Francisco. They closed their store and their mail order is too expensive. Coffee Masters tastes like Freed's beans. Smooth and non-acidic even when it's brewed real strong like I like it. I know there are different coffees named mocha java, and I'm not up on what qualifies as the real stuff. This coffee tastes like what I like in a mocha java. I think this is a good deal."
+5982,2,good!!,Im a fan of lord of the rings so i begin reading Tolkien influences. I believe this tale is one of those influences.
+5983,2,Great Bedtime Story,I recommend this book as a bedtime story for young children. It is particularly fun if you act out the actions of the characters. I often give this as a baby shower gift.
+5984,2,good game,i think this is a good starter game because my 2 and a half year old can use it. we bought it for her 2-3 weeks ago and she can draw a-c already. it took her a few times but she got it. the only con about it is that it only gives you 3 chances. other then that its a good game for the little ones.
+5985,2,A fun adrenline filled adventure.,"While this is not for kids under the age of 16, this is a fun adventure race movie. Its basically racing in space with aliens and hot babes and weird technology. In some ways this movie was nostalgic for me because I'm a child of the 80's a lot of the plot and visuals remind me of the anime we got in the 80's, in a good way. You have girls, you have racing, gratuitous and totaly unnecessary violence and crazy stuns that are done for sheer craziness. I liked it a lot. While it is not something I'd watch often, I think most would enjoy it at least once and then bring it out every couple of years to watch it again."
+5986,2,A gift with class and meaning,I have always welcomed the opportunity to give a gift that has conversation as its central theme that is both ongoing and reflective.
+5987,2,"A ""Must Have"" for Any Stringed Instrument Builder","Mr. Siminoff's book addresses the the critical information of how the various components of a stringed musical instrument function. He also explains why certain elements (bracing, truss rods, etc.) are designed in a given arrangement to accent different tonal qualities. Armed with this information, a builder should be able to make informed and more successful decisions on modifications to existing designs, or on new instrument designs. The differences of how fixed and movable bridge systems function was very informative and useful."
+5988,2,An excellent book,"This book is an excellent interdisciplinary study of World War II and its effects on American children of that time. Tuttle uses methodologies from history, American Studies, psychology, and sociology (among others) to depict the fears, comforts, and perceptions of homefront children during the war. He suggests, among other things, that within the war generation are two ""cohorts,"" each one based on having experienced different events at different courses during the war. How children experienced the war, Tuttle argues, affected their later lives, outlooks, and relationships with others. Although it's very much a ""scholarly"" work, with plenty of references to historical, psychological, and sociological theory, I found this to be a very interesting--and for Tuttle--personal book."
+5989,2,Pleasantly surprised,I was kind of apprehensive about this movie because of the reviews it received by not only critics (what do they know) but also moviegoers.I really liked the movie and I'm not really into si fi. I thought the movie was funny and adventurous. I can't wait for my husband to see it. We purchased the Bluray combo pack. Usually we purchase the deluxe edition that contains the digital download but after my external harddrive and laptop died all of the digital downloads we had are now gone or don't work. We take our dvds everywhere we go so this was the best option for us.I might not have purchased this if it hadn't been for Target's special this week. If you buy this and the fox and the hound you save an additional $8 (take the DMR coupons and save a total of $18)Very pleased.But as always if your unsure about a movie for your kids rent it before you buy it.

+5992,2,This is what this book is about,"Sarah and Harriet have led parallel lives ever since they went to boarding school together. Now, in their mid-fifties, they are widowed within three months of each other. For Sarah, who has her own business and soon finds an attentive older lover, widowhood is a release from the sterile snare of marriage. But beautiful, flirtatious Harriet feels like nothing more than an unemployed wife, a woman alone in a dangerous world, a woman no man will ever love again. As Sarah and Harriet gradually, painfully, come to terms with each other and with the men they buried, Shelby Hearon gives us a novel that is at once compassionate and wry, sorrowful and deeply warm."

+5995,2,Simplifies shopping.,"Who wants to waste all their time looking around shops when Suzy Gershman has done all the leg work for you? This guide is extremely helpful. Gershman understands what travllers with limited time want: a shortcut to the stores that really interest them so they can be free to explore the best things about London: the theaters, the museums, walking Hampstead Heath, and meeting new people. Her guide to Paris is also terrific."
+5996,1,Delonghi = defective by design,"We had a rude awaking today, our Delonghi toaster was on fire. I will never again buy any Delonghi product. The defective design is in the toast switch. It is mechanical. When it finishes toasting, it sometimes continues to the ""Always On"" position thus leaving the toaster oven on toast: very, very hot. We literally had a house full of smoke & a toaster full of flames. You were warned.Funny thing is, Delonghi makes an attractive product.Sad thing is, they can cost you your house or worse."
+5997,2,Sweetness~,"Two great games for the price of one, how could you not love it? Harmony of Dissonance has an old school Castlevania feel to it, with some modern touches to bring it up to speed. Aria of Sorrow is, in my opinion, better than Symphony of the Night in terms of gameplay, as the story is a little weak.Pick this up if you need to kill a lot of time and you own a GBA/ Nintendo DS."
+5998,1,They claim that they test each cartridge,"I bought this based on it being described as a NEW cartridge. No where did I read that I was actually buying a REFURBISHED or REFILLED cartrdige.Included in the packaging were ""test results"" which somehow didnt show the streaking that was showing up in my printer. I went back to the old cartridge which WAS a genuine HP toner cartridge.When I tried to call all I got was a busy signal."

However, although I found myself engrossed until the end I was disappointed because I expected a brighter outcome,,,there was no sign of happiness all thoughout the book. It was indeed a powerful description of the life of an unattractive black girl. It made me try to understand what that must feel like."
+6001,2,Orion Space Probe 3 EQ,"I purchased one for my wife. We are both amateur space lookers, her more so than I. I have zero experience with telescopes and was easy to put together. We haven't followed the entire set instructions as far as setting it up for East, West ect... but we've looked at some far away ""stars"" possibly planets that has satellite moons or something. Tonight we're going to look at the moon once the scope acclimates to the 20 deg weather and temp. Pretty exciting. I can't wait until we get a more comprehensible knowledge of the most of it. I'm happy for the buck vs. the bang. She seems very happy with it and that makes it worth even more to me."
+6002,2,"Love the books, enjoying the tv series","I read the James Herriott books many years ago and really loved them. They made me laugh until I cried. The tv shows have done a good job of staying true to the books, but I will always prefer the books just because I so enjoy the way he writes."
+6003,1,Disappointed with all the typos,"While I'm enjoying this book, the number of typos in the electronic version is ridiculous. Who is in charge of proofreading? Is the assumption that e readers are second class citizens and don't deserve to have someone proof the book before they sell it to us? I didn't spend 99 cents on this book and the quality should be better."
+6004,1,I would not recommend Siemens telephones to anyone,"Do not make my mistake. I have a very bad experience with Siemens 2430 cordless set. Bad quality and no support at all. Siemens doesn't want to deal with angry customers complaining about pricy junk with name Siemens on them, so they turn customer support over Sonnen Enterprise which have they own return and warranty policies.

+6008,1,Most disappointing Toy,"My three year old daughter loves dogs and of all the toys she asked Santa for, I thought she would enjoy this the most. Unfortunately, the first dog we received did not do any of the things advertised and neither did the replacement dog we ordered. Neither dog answers to claps or calls or returns to its dog house, but the dogs utter in a very weird voice, ""Come on doggie."" It is very strange. As the other reviews mention, the ramp also falls off the dog house-a house my daughter doesn't even use for the dog it came with; instead she uses it for her other dogs which she plays with and were $25 cheaper. This toy was very disappointing."
+6009,2,Best Guide Ever,"This book is the only way to go!! I have two sons and my mother and sister said it would never work. Guess what - after only one day, neither boy wore diapers and no one had an accident. I don't know why everyone doesn't follow the suggestions. Why fool around for months when in a day you will be diaper free. Buy this book for yourself and any new mom. They'll love you forever."
+6010,1,Ready4Christmas,"The product was shipped and recieved before the promised date which was a great suprise. However, when I opened the package, the dvd isn't in the original casing (very disapointing) I read the product details before and after ordering and receiving the movie and nowhere did it say it wasn't going to be sent with the actual Lion King case."
+6011,1,Wicked is Wasted,"This author has a great imagination, but he fails to follow through on his ideas and this greatly weakened the characters and plot. There are some very exciting parts, but then it rambles on . I am surprised that the publisher went ahead with this book as is. There was great potential that was missed."
+6012,1,30 minutes to fitness,"Was not what I was looking for, too many squats. It had looked to me like a weight workout, which was what I wanted, so much of what they do I cannot because of my knees. It was not for me."
+6013,2,Great Album - Worth a full listen,"This CD was passed along to me from a friend. I listened to the CD from begining to end and found it to be excellent! Matt has some compiled some great tunes for your easy listening experience.Oysters - has some great lyrics, fun up beat song, one of my favorite on the album. My favorite is Don't Ask, i love the chorus in this song.If your looking for the Singer/Songwriter acoustic style that is simple fun and upbeat then this is a great CD for you...Check it out and kudos to you Matt Duke!"
+6014,2,Simply Beautiful,"What a lovely & well made movie. I never would have thought a scene of a chaste 2 seconds first hug between Hugh Grant & James Wilby could be so hot! All of the actors did a great job of conveying the deep, passionate emotions narrated in the book while behaving within the Edwardian convention of conduct. There are definitely some passionate scenes that I have rewinded over & over again because they are so romantic! I would highly recommend the book as well - it is amazingly relevant a century later."
+6015,2,No perfume smell,"These don't have the over powering perfume of most deoderizers. I put one in my small walk in closet and the odor of shoes and dirty laundry is no longer present. I originally bought one to put near a litter box and it worked wonders. I recommend these in every child's bedroom, anywhere someone smokes, even in a kitchen. I even put one in my new car to cut the ""new car"" smell. It worked!I now give these as gifts just to introduce people to them. I like them much better then anything I can buy at a local store."
+6016,2,Ice shoes,"I recently purchased the shoes to get me through the rest of the winter, since my old clarks were falling apart. Waited until they went on sale. They have done a very good job of keeping my feet dry, but not as warm as I would like them to be. Terrific on ice and snow. Great traction. Light weight and comfortable. Great for running the dog out. I ordered a 9 and they fit great. I would buy again."
+6017,1,"A promising subject, but a very unsatisifying book","I've been looking for a book about Albert Fish ever since I learned of his existence. A religiously-inspired, senior citizen canibal who professed to have practiced every deviancy in the book should make a very interesting subject. Unfortunately,""Deranged"" by Harold Schecter is nowhere as interesting as I hoped. Too much time is spent on the investigation and the dozens of false leads that produced absolutely nothing. (About half the book is seemingly concerned about false leads.) And when the book is finished, Albert Fish, a man who kidnapped, cooked and ate a little girl and then wrote a letter to her parents to tell them how delicious she was, seems less like the embodiment of absolute evil and more like a pathetic old man who can't control his impulses. Perhaps the material wasn't nearly as interesting as it first appeared, but a subject this lurid shouldn't produce a book this boring."
+6018,2,Great product,I have a lumpy bumpy lawn and this mower does a great job. I love the fact that I don't have to buy GAS! This also provides a great workout!
+6019,1,The Fugitive: Season Two v.2,"The Fugitive,s sound track has been changed through out the entier episodes why on earth did paramount cbs change the entier music score? not 2 mention some editing of scenes. keeping somthing to its original format and the magnetic sound strip restoring these old shows they tend to change everything that ruines and spoils .all they needed 2 do is just restor the picture and not touch or change the music score peter rugoles beautiful music score replaced . shame on you paramount cbs"
+6020,1,GARBAGE: NOT UL LISTED!!!!!,"This thing overheated before I even had a chance to turn it on to use it! It got VERY warm the minute I plugged it in, and when I did try to use it, it literally worked for a short burst and shut down, and even the next day it wouldn't turn back on. It smelled like melting plastic and I was waiting for this thing to spark up and catch fire. This appliance is NOT UL listed, and while it is made up to look like it is, it does not work properly. Beware if you buy this one, go spend an extra ten bucks and get a brand you're familiar with. I don't be getting an off-brand appliance again!"
+6021,1,Written as if by someone who needs to pay off a poker debt,"As someone who spent many years playing poker, this book left me feeling unsatisified. The writing could only be described as perfunctory, as if the author needed money in a hurry. Much better is ""Shut Up and Deal."" That book gave me an adrenalin rush that made we want to return to the felt table of my past."
+6022,2,Superb writing on Paris and life,"Adam Gopnik's ""Paris to the Moon"" is a collection of essays, many of which previously appeared in THE NEW YORKER, for which he has written for some years. Gopnik details not only cultural differences between France and America (he sometimes refers to his life in Manhattan as ""my real life""), but gives us a great deal about his family life in general. Having spent a brief part of his childhood in Paris, he is in a unique position to compare his own experiences there to those being had by his son Luke, four years old at the time of the essays.Gopnik has a great gift for subtle humor. While rarely poking overt fun at Parisians, he manages to show their multi-faceted character--overly serious about some things, lighthearted about others, fairly sexist (both men and women), concerned with both surface (good looks, scarves, the right hat) and depth (Jean-Paul Sartre)."
+6023,1,Unbelievably boring!,"I was so disappointed with this book. I did not find it to be at all suspenseful, and the romance was surface at best. I found the characters to be flat and unlikable."
+6024,1,Not as expected,This is very small & more the size of a charm than a pendant. Not what I was looking for.... I sent it back.
+6025,2,Shark SV736,Very good cordless vac. The Shark has ample power to pick up any mess and the variety of accessories that come with the product are great. I would definitely recomment this product to anyone looking for a fair priced product that stands up to all its hype.
+6026,2,great book,I DO'NT READ REGULAR BOOKS THAT OFTEN MOST ARE SCHOOL BOOKS. I PICKED UP A COPY OF THE BOOK ON FRIDAY.HAD FIRST CHANCE TO START ON MONDAY MORNING TO LOOK AT THE BOOK. I STARTED READING THE BOOK AND COULD'NT PUT IT DOWN. WITHIN A FEW HOURS BETWEEN READING THE BOOK AND OTHER DISTRACTIONS I HAD MADE IT TO PAGE SIXTY.IT IS HARD FOR ME TO STAY FOCUSED ON READING BOOKS DO TO OTHER THINGS GOING ON AROUND ME. THIS BOOK IS HARD TO PUT DOWN AFTER YOU START READING THE BOOK. WORKING IN THE SAME CAREER AS THE WRITER I CAN FEEL THE SAME THINGS THAT HE WENT THROUGH OVER HIS YEARS IN THE BUSINESS.I WOULD GIVE THE BOOK NINE STARS IF THEY WERE AVAILABLE. GET THE BOOK AND FIND OUT FOR YOURSELF. JP
+6027,2,JUST listen,"This cd is A love at the First listen, memorable Riffs, Great Hooks, Neal Schon .. is Playing like a god here .. and Gioeli(AXel Rudi Pell vocalist) is the top spot here ...I think this CD .. is one of the bests CD's that i listened in the last 5 years ...Best songs are ... Hot Cherrie, Dr Love, Cant Find My Way and Change of Heart .. if you get the Japanese version of this CD .. the best track on the album is the bonus Track .. Called Love Leads the Way .. Wonderful CD ...Order this CD now .."
+6028,2,The last great ORIGINAL MEMBER Shalamar album!,"This 1983 release would be the last with the three original members. ""Dead Giveaway"", ""You Can't Count On Me"" are the ones most remember on this one but the masterpieces on this release are ""You're The One For Me"" and ""Over and Over"". To this day I can play this wholealbum and go back into incredible memories because this group symbolized having a good time and enjoying good music. Jody Watley left the group toconcentrate on solo success. Backup singer Jermaine Stewart left to record a couple of solos as well. Howard Hewitt stayed for one more album which was a joke with 2 new Shalamar members. I don't know what happened to Jeffrey Daniels. Later they would record vocal tracks with Babyface and LL Cool J on a track from Babyface's ""The Day"" CD."
+6029,1,George not at his best,The only interesting music is (2) of the Indian tracks. The rest is poor movie sound tract filler.
+6030,1,Yawn,"This book just rambles and rambles and doesn't even get interesting until the last 100 pages or so.It's a great premise, but pooly done.Darnton also seems to like to talk about male genitals -- 3 times (and it always is ""off to one side"") man, how does this apply to the story?Big yawn, move on."
+6031,1,waste of time....,I wish I would have read the above review before wasting my time with this book.... going now to get my money back
+6032,1,Review for Dual Garage Laser,I would not recommend this product. One side quit working after one week and the whole thing quit after two weeks.
+6033,1,This can not be Dana,This does not look like Dana(I have and reviewed Girls nite out Dana)the clothes look like something a flava doll would wear I mean come on! MGAE was not thinking when thay made this doll!
+6034,1,DISGUSTING!!!,Oh i didn't read a worse book than this.I hate Leo and Kate.I hate Titanic.This is an awful book.Don't read it!
+6035,1,"Love Black Eyed Peas and Fergie, but not the album","There are two good songs on this album. Fergie does show that she has range, which is good. Unfortunately I expected more dance type music, there were only two songs that I actually liked."
+6036,1,Don't do it!,"Words cannot express how BAD this movie is. If you are looking for a cute romantic comedy with Kate and Matthew wait until one actually comes out. While I love both actors dearly, this movie was difficult for me to watch from start to finish. The only reason I gave it one star was because ZERO was not an option."
+6037,1,Horrible!,"Like many other XP users, tried it. Went through the setup and it was recognized as Prolific USB-to-Serial Bridge (COM3). Tried to hook it up to my device that uses a serial port and it was never recognized. If you have XP, I suggest not buying this product."
+6038,2,Game of Thrones---season 1,"It was a Christmas gift, but started watching it and so far it is great. It was highly recommended to me. I'm sure I will enjoy all of it as well."
+6039,2,Wonderful!!,"I bought this mat for my 11 week old daughter, and was very disappointed at first with how little it held her attention (except for the mirror). Then at 12 weeks, she became absoulutely enthralled by it, staring at the animals and talking to herself in the mirror. Now at 14 weeks, she bats at the toys, plays on her tummy with the lights and laughs at the monkey, her favorite of the animals. I recommend it, but I also recommend that you be patient, and don't expect magic the first day. Give it time, you and your baby will get a kick out of it."
+6040,1,Disappointed walker,"The belt clip did not hold the recorder in place. I had to hold the recorder instead of weights as I walked. Sound was good, but the tape recorder stopped working after less than 30 days.Instructions on preset channels difficult to understand. My previous Panasonic recorder lasted eight years. What a disappointment this one is!"
+6041,1,Where are the characters we care about??,"I was riveted by ""Storm of Swords"" and couldn't wait to dive into ""Feast of Crows."" Ugh, what a bore. Everyone we've come to love and love to hate are either dead or mysteriously absent from this volume. The storyline is shattered, new characters and houses and sers are introduced every chapter and I have absolutely no idea who they are and don't even care. What a mess and disappointment. Forget it if you want to know what's happening with Tyrion, Jon, Bran and Daenerys, they don't even show up in this book. The entire book seems like one long Cersei whine-fest. I tried but I'm bailing at page 531 and will just wait for the next book to find out what happens to the characters we really care about."
+6042,1,...horrible,"This CD is definitely by far the worst of all the Ataris'. On the day it was released I went down to the record shop, excited to buy it after seeing them live a month before they were awesome and I couldn't wait to listen to So Long Astoria. It is different from their old stuff...way too whiney and boring. I listened to it once and have not touched it once. It definitely is one of the worst CD's in my collection."
+6043,1,BAD QUALITY,"Received this and plugged to a monitor running at 1280x1024. There is strange double ghosting to the right of larger black letters in white background, it is simply unacceptable. The cable is as thin as mouse' tail, and appears to be as cheap as it gets.Avoid it if you are looking for anything of decent quality, spend more money on better cable, and you will be happy. This one was returned 5 minutes later."
+6044,1,Horribly anti-christian piece,"Wizardry and witchcraft. Weird. Not at all true to what this story is truly about. The book of Kells was a book of the Gospels in the Bible. This is not true at all to the story. The animation was cool, but we shut this off after about 50 minutes (much more than half way)."
+6045,2,One fine backpack for the business person on the go,A fellow coworker recommended this backpack. It holds everything you could need! It is comfortable to wear over the shoulders and quickly changes to rolling on wheels when needed. I have recommended this to other coworkers who struggle with the one shoulder laptop holders that weight them down! Save you back and shoulders with this ergonomic great backpack.
+6046,1,curve case,i have bought about 5 cases. three curve cases and two pearl cases. this curve case was not as nice as all the others. this was a dull black and not as soft as the others. didn't like it as much. others were soft leather this one is clearly not the same as the others. but oh well.
+6047,2,hp ink cartridges,i have an hp l7780 pro inkjet printer. this printer has given me great service with no problems..
+6048,1,Waste of time and money,"This book is almost unuseable. Most of its pages seem to be fragments from various GTK+/Gnome header files with only rudimentary explanations. It does not answer most GTK+/Gnome beginners questions, even if they are experienced programmers.For example I wanted to call a file selection dialog. The index has one reference to GtkFileSelection, which consists of a screen shot and another reference to the corresponding #include file for this widget. That's it. The #include file contains several functions, none of them are explained or even mentioned in the book (at least I could not find them in the index).I'm afraid I have to buy another book to get my job done."
+6049,2,Worked for me,"I like this product a lot. I used it on a good Oriental rug that my cat had peed on and it did a really good job - vacuumed out easily (my vacuum has a power head), left it looking cleaner, and took the smell out of the rug. Really rub it in well and let it sit for at least half an hour. Sure it doesn't replace having it cleaned professionally - come on, it comes out of a box for $12.99 - but in between cleanings, it's pretty good."
+6050,2,forget dieting,Stop with worring about food and start enjoing it. Just reading the book rises your cholesterol level but who cares. It's great to see these ladies enyoy cooking and enyoing life. A great gift for anyone who can't stick to his/her diet and feels misserable about it.
+6051,2,Hannah Montana The Movie,"I am the proud father of 3 little girls, all of whom are Hannah Montana fans, so of course they loved it. Oddly enough, I enjoyed it as well."
+6052,1,Incorrect Quantity,"I just opened the package today. I looked through it, and I only see one controller, and I ordered two. I was, however, charged for the correct quantity, so I need to have this fixed.The controller that was delivered is working, so hopefully that continues. The rating would have been higher, but I do not like being charged for items that have not been delivered. And I checked my e-mails to make sure that I did not get a message of a delayed delivery."
+6053,1,JUST PLAIN BAD,"People, this movie's plot went in so many directions it was impossible to keep up with it all. The story line twisted so many times it literally ruined the movie. Depp was convincing and funny and Banderas was his typical shoot em' up self, but these things just couldn't save the movie from its bizarre, all-over-the-place plot. Rent this one."
+6054,2,Wished it was more in depth,"This is one of the most moving stories I've ever read. (and the first book I've actually given a review on here.)Mankind is sickening when you think of the atrocities that we do to each other. Her story is a powerful lesson on ""hatred"" and evil in general. But even more powerful - was Immaculee's faith in God throughout her ordeal. I feel like she was truly sent here from a higher power - acting as God's anchor/life boat to the world in telling her story. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars, is that I wish the book went into more detail at times. Every angle and everything she went through in her story is so overwhelming - at times it seemed simplified as compared to what she really must've gone through.But that's not a criticism - just a comment that this book left me wanting more. I hope she writes more - there are so many angles and teachings I think she could give based on what she went through.I will definitely pass this book onto many...."
+6055,2,Give it a shot. It's very funny.,"This film is low budget and is obviously the work of people with little feature length production experience, but the Character development is very strong. The story line and plot are solid. The story does not waver or get lost as you might extpect from a low budget film like this. Very competent work from that perspective. Also, It is very funny. And I'm not easily amused. Some really classic stuff. Don't let this movie pass you by."
+6056,1,Coffee filter is junk,If you like coffee grounds in your coffee buy this filter. I personally don't like mud in the bottom of my cup.
+6057,1,It didn't work,"We tried it with our cat, and it might be because the first hole or two were too big, but he refused to use it. He used it before we cut the hole, but refused to use it after we cut the first hole. On top of that, the hole we cut was only half the size of the first hole they have marked on the plastic and it still didn't work. The plastic itself is very flimsey. This item is completely overpriced as all you get is a sheet of plastic molded to the toilet. It shouldn't cost more than $10, $15 at the most. Not what it is currently priced at."
+6058,2,Good preparation.,"The test preparation tips are helpful. The review goes fairly smoothly, examining major ideas and people adequately. It does fall short in a few areas: Exploration, Second Industrial Revolution,a description of different Ideologies in 19th century, and Social history. The questions are of similar type to those on the AP exam, but they are somewhat easier than real AP questions."
+6059,1,Frequent disconnects. Bad quality control.,Do not buy this router. The quality is a hit or miss. And there have been quite a few misses now that cannot be ignored anymore. I just wished I read about this first.The router may suddenly fail to work and requires a reboot by unplugging it. This isn't ideal when you have it stuck in a location that is hard to reach. Running the latest .14 release of the firmware (6/2004) and still has the problem. For some it may occur once a month and for some every 30 mins. Please do not even consider this.If you are skeptical about these comments check out the forums in dslreports.com and search for 'post your BEFW11S4 issues'
+6060,2,Billy Joe is the Best,"I recommend all of Billy Joe Shavers music to fans of every genre. His sound is country but his music is the best and his voice carries so much emotion. If you have not listened to Billy Joe Shaver, you need to start. He is unmatched in country music."
+6061,2,About time,"Good read - enjoyed Bethall since I was in college and picked up the old 'newspaper format' Spectator. About time someone explained what we all knew to be true. Everyone except, perhaps, the pointy heads that drive BMW's, live in exclusive communities, and rail incessantly about redistribution of wealth. Read this, Adam Smith, and P.G. Wodehouse and you will know all that is necessary to know about life."
+6062,1,Hardware crash three weeks from new!,"Three weeks after I bought the darn thing it crashed. I only installed Microsoft Office software. I'm working away on a project when bam! The Blue Screen of Death appears to inform me that Windows XP had to quit. Then a totally dark screen.Then the system starts back up, with a box offering to send an error report to Microsoft. I click it. Microsoft thinks for a minute then writes back: hardware failure. Either the memory, the power supply or the motherboard is defective. They're not sure which, but it's serious. The computer is obviously working for the moment, but unreliable.Now I'm stuck. I can replace the computer, but Microsoft won't let me load their software a second time. I'll have to shell out $hundreds again for software I just purchased.My opinion: I'm sorry I took a chance on this cheap computer. As someone once said, ""The anguish of low quality endures long after the thrill of low price is gone."""
+6063,2,Panasonic KX-TG2422,Phones are small. Have clear sound with handset and handset speakerphone. A good buy.
+6064,2,More variations on a theme - the crime in the past,"In a fit of odd nostalgia I am re-reading many of Christie's novels, most of them Poirot books. (I have removed some non-review portions and posted them elsewhere.) An excellent spin on an oft used Christie motif - the investigation of the crime in the past. Although most of these types are crimes committed long ago this one is a crime from the recent past. And it is a murder that went undetected. More Christie ingenuity in the manner in which a poison is administered undetected, intentional misdirection of suspects, and the apparent insignificance of minutiae that lead to the final discovery of the culprit. The quaintness of the fox terrier ""talking"" got to be a bit too much for me this time around. Hastings is a prig in this one getting all riled up over Poirot's continual impersonations and lies. Overall, a good Christie of her early period, but not a great one."
+6065,1,over the top in unrefined distastefulness and disrespect for God,"a deeply confused soul who needs profanity, self-absorbed cutesiness and bitterness to make her shallow points. prayers to Our Father God are offered to have the Bible change her life, lifestyle and vocabulary to be a sweet-smelling fragrance before the Lord Jesus and those needing Christ's forgiveness, recovery and restoration."
+6066,2,this story is close to home,"Reading this story was very poignant for me. I am a cancer survivor who also lost her husband during the process. The difference between me and Alex is that I stayed with my Brock. I have to appalud Danielle for keeping married people together in this book, when she often separates them. This book will always be close to my heart. A very good read = real to life, not just some mushy, smushy romance."
+6067,2,A fun ride!,"This one's the best Megamorphs so far, I agree. The start is really clever, if I was a bit confused. The Droid is one of my favourite characters! All the history and alternate-universe structure of the plot, plus the time-travel angle, are the kewlest as far as I've seen, and it put a twist to things as well. A fun ride. Jump in!"
+6068,1,Walken Best Thing In Ridiculous Film,"Christopher Walken is absolutely mesmerizing as Mr. Smith or Mr Jones or whatever they call his shadowy character. His evil swaggering bad man falls in the category of characters you love to hate. Too bad he doesn't have a decent movie to accomadate such an inspired turn. The plot is ludicrous, far fetched, laughable, and just downright silly. Think about it. The murder plot at the center of the film is so far reaching and elaborate. Why is it that they have to pull some poor schmuck off the street(Johnny Depp)and threaten to kill his daughter if he doesn't pull the trigger? Couldn't they just do it themselves and leave nothing to chance? Even Depp seems confused and his performance shows it. The end credits pronounce this as a John Badham movie. I guess calling this piffle a film is too elevated a term."
+6069,2,Satisfied,"Its an awesome product, for collection a must have one, recomended for micro machine and alÃen fans"
+6070,2,Awesome!,This book teaches you alot about how blacks were treated back in the day. When Jackie Robinsion was signed to the Dodgers the fans and players treated him really badly. People threw stuff at him. Then a young teammate stood up for him and saved him from being ban from the team. So you shouldn't judge a book by it's cover.
+6071,1,Leapster is the worst handheld ever,I have watched my friend play with a leapster.He says he hates it but his mom nakes him play it.All it plays are learning games.I like pixter color better.Pixter color has a arcade cartrigde the plays non-learning arcade games.I would not (...)!
+6072,2,great,Before I bought this rice cooker I really carefully read reviews for this and similar models. To me this one is where price meets quality.I have been using this cooker for over three years. My family absolutely love the quality of rice it makes. It's easy to operate and clean. Just don't forget to wipe water under the removable steam insert!
+6073,2,"Smoothy making machine, works perfectly.","I bought this blender after burning out the motor on the previous one making smoothies. We tend to make a smoothy just about every night and with the previous blender the ice was always chunky and not very smooth. This blender works very well to not only break up the ice but to whip it into ""snow"" in seconds. I have used a vita mix blender side by side and the results are identical at a fraction of the cost. I would highly recommend this blender for anyone looking for a high power blender at a great price.Thank you Kitchenaid for a great product."
+6074,1,What was the point?,"Do not read this review if you don't want to know the ending! I liked the characters, I liked the island in Maine, I loved the plot setup. Tell me. What was the point in the heroine dying? I am a two time cancer survivor.I was thrilled to read a story about a survivior with funky Annie Lennox-like hair, who has a second chance. I know people die, but what was the point in having the heroine die in this fictional book? She had her son back, she made peace with her father, made a difference in a young girl's life, and found true love for the first time. I'd devoted hours enjoying this book and the end still has me shaking. It's my worst nightmare of dying from cancer while still young. What was the point in killing Sarah off?"
+6075,1,Easily the Worst Children's Book We Have Ever Read,"It isn't funny or entertaining in the least. Our daughter (almost 4) is good at getting the jokes that are aimed at her age, did not understand why this boy's mother had abandoned him. I had to explain what was happening. The mother depicted in the book represents a truly poor parent by dumping her son with some aunt in a department store basement while she spends an extraordinary amount of time shopping for luxury stuff for herself. When she comes back she admonishes him for going to slow because they have ""miles more shopping to due"". I guess you're supposed to say ""Yeah that's really funny, I'll have to try that some time"". This bozo need to stay away from writing children's books."
+6076,2,I LOVE IT,"I got a 70$ amazon gift card and loved it! I shopped, shopped, shopped, and id I mention...shopped!! Hope I get more for Easter!"
+6077,1,Horrible,"A ""friend"" of mine bought this album for me for my birthday. I will return the favor on her birthday and mail her a stale fruit cake. This is one of the most annoying and irritating albums I've ever heard. The lyrics are laughably bad, but I can't listen because the music and his voice are just horrible. Don't even think of buying this crappy album"
+6078,2,great toy-- fun and educational,"My 9 month-old daughter just received this as a Christmas gift- what a great toy! Right now she just likes to spin it in it's base and watch the lights and listen to the music. Later, we can flip the switch and she'll hear letter names and sounds. Eventually, we'll take it out of the base and she can chase it around the floor. I'm really impressed with this toy- if I had seen it earlier, Santa would have brought it-- luckily, my daughter's godfather brought it instead!"
+6079,2,Personal Small Blender is Big Hit!,Bought this tiny blender to use in my business making hand lotion. It's awesome!
+6080,1,Terrible Design and Awful Customer Service!,"These are the cutest cups on the market...the only problem is that the first time you wash them in the dishwasher (on the top rack as recommended), the outer plastic warps so badly that the cups no longer stand up on a surface, so you can't store them in your cabinets or set them on a table!! They also crack and begin to leak moisture.Then, when you contact customer service, even if you return them within the warranty period, Evenflo will only replace them with the same totally awful cups (unless of course you want to spend more money on one of their pricier products, say, a carseat). My recommendation is to forget the Evenflo gimmicky cups and go for the good old stand-by: Gerber sippy cups, they work and last forever."
+6081,2,Blown me away !,Very thrilling. did not have any knowledge about multi personality disorder until i came across this book. Full paced till the right very end.
+6082,2,Not Quite what I wanted but I made it work.,"This is a follow up to a previous feedback. This mailbox wasn't what I thought it was because it had a different lid hook. However, I was able to modify it and make it work. Great service from the Fuseks TrueValu hardware. They even followed-up to make sure everything was ok. Thanks to them."
+6083,1,New Beginning By Tracy Chapman,It is not the Tracy Chapman you will be expecting to hear. This album is a complete disaster. I wish I had not bought it.
+6084,2,An arresting performance,"This is one of Britten`s starkest scores, not the ""fluidity"" of Grimes or the sensuality of Venice.But, great music.As this is largely a static plot, no much movement goes on stage.The staging is very restrained, with distinct japanese influences.The singing and acting are very good, so why only 4 stars? ENO gets the full 5, but Kultur, alas... The rransfers are good, but not more. Why in the name of G do they not include subtitles? It`s essential, even for an opera sung in English. So, for the future PLEASE!"
+6085,2,WONDERFUL for everyone!,"It's an amazing variety of artists and music. You gotta love ""This Kiss"" by Faith Hill. I'm also in love with the movie (saw it twice). It's a must buy on my Christmas Wish List!"
+6086,1,Poor quality,I recently had to get rid of this curling iron. I bought it four years ago. The main problem with it was that it would burn my hair frequently even if it was on the lowest setting. There must have been something wrong with the heating element. Sometimes it would work fine and other times it would work really really badly. After four years it all of a sudden stopped working completely.
+6087,2,Greatest Movie Ever!!!,"I LOOOOOOOOVVVVVVVVEEEEEEEE this movie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I don't care what anyone else says, this is the ultimate best movie ever made, anime or otherwise. You may look at me strange after hearing that this movie isn't regular Tenchi fare. Sure no one can forget the last episode of Universe. No one can forget Zero's scream of pain as she nearly kills Tenchi. But this movie erases all that. This movie is touching on all levels, emotional, phisycal, and in every other way possible. NO ACTION IT DIDN""T NEED IT! This movie is better than yes Akira, and yes Princess Mononoke the ""best anime movies ever"" well in my opinion Tenchi Forever is the most wonderful movie every. The story is almost like Tenchi in Love's story but it is much better. The movie is made up up beautiful images that you'll never forget. THe soundtrack stays with you for days and you want it to. I LOVE THIS MOVIE!"
+6088,1,Shrunken version of original is WAY TOO SMALL!,"The original, much larger version of this Bible is excellent. However, this printing is way smaller. The text is so small it's barely readable. My 8 year old who is used to the other version started crying and needs a magnifying glass to read the text.Get the original, much larger version if you can."
+6089,2,a journey about time and space,i enjoyed this book a lot. the texts (more like poems)gracefully compliment the images. wim wenders is not only a master in telling stories but also a great photographer . the prelude about the act of taking pictures is very insightful too.this is a wonderful and profoundly moving little book which will get you interested in starting your own road trip and photo journal!
+6090,1,If you like lies and distorted truths you'll like this!,Only the brainwashed liberal left could watch this movie or F 9-11 and not see the glaring factual discrepancies and distorted half truths present in both films!Major journalists from both sides and the 9-11 commission itself have made a liar out of Michael Moore's assertions and the same is true for this piece of election time propaganda!Let's hope the mental midgets of the left spend their money on this film and not give it to their equally distorted candidates.
+6091,2,Nothing better for backups,"Pure and simple: Retrospect just works. Yes, it's a little confusing to initially set up, but once you've got it configured, I don't know of any better solution for backing up local or remote machines, be they Windows, Mac, or Linux, to any kind of backup media you can imagine: hard drive arrays, tape drives, optical discs, etc. Great product."
+6092,1,the worst cd of 1998,this cd is terrible..it does not live up to his first. he came out with it too soon..what is it not even one year?? these songs are really boring and nasty and stupid lyrics. stay away from this one
+6093,2,Wonderful!!!!Fantastic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!..........................,"This,is the best of the best movie i'd ever seen!!!!!I'm glad I own it,'cause I just can't stop watching it!In less then two months,I watched it over 10 times!!!!!!You know why?Because of the music,the characters,oh my gosh!and the story!It's about two pretty girls always being on the right side,and trying to defit the evil Preminger! You've got to watch it to know what happened!!!!!!!!!!!"
+6094,1,A Lousy Book By a Lousy President,"This book is absolute drivel. First, the writing is terrible. I assume Carter did not actually write the book himself, but he could have at least found a better writer to ghost write it for him. Second, in his zeal to defend the Palestinians and attack the Israelis, our former president seems to have dispensed with careful fact-checking. Where the facts support his conclusion, he states the facts. Where the facts do not support his conclusion, he either ignores the facts, changes the facts, or invents new facts. This is inexcusable. Finally, the book is so one-sided that it fails to contribute anything meaningful to the debate about a complex situation. Instead, it comes off as ranting. President Carter will go down in history as among our least effective presidents. His book is just about as good as his presidency."
+6095,1,My first and last Scott Turow book,A chore to read. I picked it up to read on a long flight to China. Next time I'll reread something by Steinbeck or Sinclair Lewis. Outcome was predictable from the mid way point. I only finished it because I can't read Chinese and needed to pass time somehow or other
+6096,1,horrible ending,I thought the movie had a good plot n was just getting really good n than it ends n Ur left hanging and just because of that I would n v watch this movie again..
+6097,2,Microsoft - Works Suite 2001 including Picture It 2001,"I was very excited at how much this was like my original Picture It of 2000. It lets me do just about the same things and I am so happy to finally find this disc. It is easier than all the other very hard to understand programs. Thank you [ASIN:B000MUK7AQ Microsoft Works Suite 2001: Word, Picture It!, Streets & Trips, Encarta, Works, Money] it was very inexpensive."
+6098,1,"Is this a novel, or a commercial for Colt Firearms?","This piece of ""fiction"" is so bad on so many levels it's hard to sort it all out.If you are looking for a book with a plot, character development and all those kinds of things that make a novel a novel, go elsewhere. This ain't it.If you are a survivalist looking for an infomercial to decide which type of bandoleer or canteen to invest in, how many layers of steel to hang over your exterior windows, or how far to place the outhouse from the fresh water spring, buy this book! Or invest in a mental health professional.I could go on, but I've said all I want to."
+6099,1,Kind of disappointing.,"If you look at this book as just a book, it's really not that bad, but as the sequel to Gone With the Wind, it is, in a word, terrible. I think Alexandra Ripley butchered the strong sence and reality of the characters in GWTW. She gave Scarlett morals, honor, a conscience . . . things like that, which are exactly the opposite of what Scarlett's all about. I mean, when you read GWTW, you can't help but think that you want Scarlett to be a good, kind person, but when it comes right down to it, you don't like Scarlett in spite of, but because of her dishonorable ways. That's who she is. I thought ""Scarlett: The Sequel to Gone With the Wind"" was VERY disappointing. I literally gave me a headache to read it. I kept saying, ""Rhett wouldn't say that! Scarlett wouldn't do that! She's too proud! She wouldn't say that!"" Alexandra Ripley is a pretty good author, but she should never have even attempted to come close to the absolute marvel of Margaret Mitchell's increadable skill."
+6100,1,Ingredient Unfriendly,"The recipes sound mouthwatering enough, but the ingredients are too difficult to find. And even when I have found the ingredients, the end result is lackluster."
+6101,1,Terrible,"As a horror movie buff, independent, and low budget movie fan, I can honestly say this was one of the worst rip off movies I have ever seen. I am from Louisville, KY where Waverly Hills Sanitorium is located, and I am forever fascinated by it's morbid and tragic history. This movie compromised the integrity of everything sacred about that building, not mention ripped off Rob Zombie videos and The House on Haunted Hill. At least The House on Haunted Hill was somewhat tolerable. This, not so much. This film is only for those who like an abundance of naked bodies, excruciating acting, and zero substance ""Girls Gone Wild"" home movies type of stuff."
+6102,1,It's a dirty job...,"The cover shot of the band is about all you need to know about the music contained within: disinterested and dated. But it's not as horrible as most have said; I can safely say 'Dirty Work' is miles better than the disastrous 'Undercover'. The first and last tunes on 'Dirty Work' are its best, 'One Hit to the Body' and 'Sleep Tonight'. The middle is where it goes head-shakingly off track. 'Too Rude' sounds like a UB40 remake, with an annoying drum reverb effect, and 'Winning Ugly' will have you racing for the 'next' key on your player. The rest of the songs range from obnoxious to simply forgettable. The sound quality is your typical early CD from the 80's, but as you might have figured out, this album deserves to be forgotten rather than remastered."
+6103,1,me no like,"both suck in my opinion. didnt even watch whole way through on either. up in smoke is cool, yellowbeard was the real surprise. youre welcome"
+6104,1,Arrogant and Disappointingly Simple,"He offers some speculating advice and that's about it! The rest of the information is very basic knowledge and about education services he provides which can be bought for a fee. The author appeared quite arrogant throughout, even going as far to name the standard real estate cycle after himself! There were a lot of ""I did this!"" and ""I did that!"" and ""I'm so wonderful to help people!"" This book is not worth your time, unless you enjoy reading the advertisement section of the newspaper, only without the fancy pictures and print."
+6105,2,"Think About It,","Anybody who has played SWAT 3 will know what a brilliant and well designed game that was. So surely, we can only be able to expect better in Urban Justice. I HAVE SEEN GAMEPLAY FOOTAGE!!! Yes, I think it is at www.fileplanet.com where you can download a few minutes worth of actual footage from the game, it is not just a trailer or cutscene it is someone actually playing UJ. I expect that when it comes out in January, it will immediately become number 1 on the top sellers list. Go to various sites, read the reviews and think about what you have to look foward too."
+6106,1,Ilan Pappe rewrites History to fit his own agenda,"Ilan Pappe, has taken the history of israel and changed it to fit his revisionist dialogue and prpomte an anti Israel agenda. He uses information that cannot be documented, has decided on a one state solution and essentially calls for the elimination of the state of Israel, while he lives on a goverment salary, and is protected by the very soliders that he demonizes. He should be filed un ""fiction"" in the libraries."
+6107,1,This 2-cup size has issues,"I have tried two different sizes of this item. This big 2-cup version did not work properly, so I sent it back and kept the smaller tablespoon size one, since it works much better. The main issue was that the plunger seal would not grip the sides of the sleeve, so it would wobble a lot, kept falling and losing the measurement that I set. Even with ingredients in it, the sleeve would fall down, big mess.. I decided to try one of the yellow plunger measuring cups next and I find that they grip and hold the measurement much better. I'm happy now."
+6108,2,Clearing misconceptions,"This drama goes past the newscasts and explains more in depth how the Laramie community was affected by this tragedy. Rather than portraying a bunch of ""hicks"" who were perceived as not caring by the media when the murder occurred, this book explains how most of the citizens of Laramie were affected. This is great in that it goes beyond the murder and looks into the aftermath and how the town was changed by the life and death of one special young man."
+6109,2,bronze birdfeeder,This birdfeeder came quickly and was east to set up and use. I am enjoying watching the birds from my window!
+6110,1,A substandard product,"The rack was well-packed and arrived on time. Unlike the website picture, it was cheaply made with poor finishing. There were several rough and uneven spots. The straps were flimsy thin strips attached to the wood with a single staple. It also had an unsteady appearance. May be able to hold a small hand-luggage bag. Certaintly won't hold an average size suitcase. I have already returned it. Please do not waste your time or money on it."
+6111,2,JEG,The product arrived as expected. The ear gels fit the JawBone well and were perfect for ill perfect ears.
+6112,1,Not worth it!,"We were excited about the prospect of having freshly brewed coffee on our camping trips. Decided to try out the unit before putting into fulltime service, glad we did! Took about twenty minutes to drip all the water in the carafe, the capacity of the coffee maker. The drip was very slow. Perhaps it relates to the fact the coffee maker runs off 12Volts. In any case, we decided not to risk being stuck with an appliance that doesn't get the job done and returned it to our target store."
+6113,2,This pretty tight!!!!,"I like this. I wished it had more songs on it. But its tight. I looked for the album but I couldn't find it so I copped the single. I heared another song by them on the radio in Lafayette, La now that was hot!!!its called ""3rd Coast Skip"" and I can't find it anywhere in the stores but this is Hot!! too they need to come on with the album."
+6114,1,not comfortable,"tear easy cheap bought other dynarex made in malaysia were pretty good, these are made in china just the facts"
+6115,2,Look weird - feel great!,"These look so weird and also feel weird when you first put them on but they are so much fun. I love them for my yoga class, and sometimes wear them at night watching TV because the separation they give your toes is good for your feet overall. Try them... you'll become a fan too!"
+6116,1,Bought them for their cheap price and nice color/look,"They feel and look nice but they aren't worth getting to be honest. Normally I'm a junkie for anything Zebra brand, pink or purple, but they don't write very well! The ink is VERY faint, and the pen isn't as smooth as it should be. I do love Zebra's Ola Pens a LOT better, if you want anything Zebra pen related don't get these! Try Ola instead."
+6117,1,Therapeutic Helmet Buffing,Check out the cover photo. Look at how C Murder is positioned. He's waiting for his mostly male fans to administer fellatio to him. Go ahead and buff his helmet. That's what he wants and you CM fans want to do it too. Just stop being so shy about your innermost desires. You'll all feel a whole lot healthier and a lot less violent if you guys would just admit what you wanna do and then go on and do it. It's okay. It's the 21st century and society isn't going to judge you for it anymore.
+6118,1,Mark Knopler & Dave Edmunds The Booze Brothers by Droop,"If you are buying this CD for Knopfler, forget it. He is only on 3 cuts, and these are unrecognizable and can easily be missed. I found nothing else interesting on the CD. Spend your money elsewhere."
+6119,1,Does not last!,"This toy appears to be good quality and is easy to use and my little boy enjoyed it until it stopped working...within less then a year of occasional use. Changing out the batteries did not prove to be helpful. It simply ""gave up the ghost"" and was ready for the trash bin. Very disappointing."
+6120,1,Another Wanna-Be Skinny Puppy,"There are about 1000 bands ou there that think they can make a living by sounding exactly like Skinny Puppy. It's a real shame that instead of being inspired by that great band, and going forward and creating new, fresh music, this band just keeps going in circles over other peoples old footsteps."
+6121,2,Perfect heater for my son's bedroom,"We needed a small, safe heater for our young son's bedroom and this heater has turned out to be perfect. The heater stays cool to the touch when it is on and puts out A LOT of heat. Wonderful product."
+6122,1,Overall A Disappointment,"After the three exquisite single releases from her equally exquisite LIGHT YEARS set, it borders on idiotic as to why anyonewould choose this limp track as the final release from the album.The song is average at best, by far the lowpoint of an otherwiseseamless set. Catering to the then-popular Latin music movement,the Latino vibes fail to enhance what is already a DOA track--I'mnot sure if it's the music, lyrical content, or production, butit nonetheless adds up to the usually-reliable Minogue's mostuninteresting single in ages, and quite possibly ever."
+6123,1,"Pretty, but so boring","This movie was like looking at a painting for a couple hours. Yes, it was pretty, but it was so boring. There was no suspense, limited humor and the kids we rented it for could not stay awake to finish it because it just dragged. They also did not ask for a replay, which is very unusual for them. I might have given it a 3, but I am surprised it has such a high rating and I am hoping to save other people the time and money we wasted.You would be better off rewatching the first film, rather than trying to make it through this sequel."
+6124,1,thank goodness for Creep,"Even as dedicated of a Radiohead fan as I am, I really don't care much for this album. I say thank goodness for ""Creep"" because we may have never heard from them again (or at least not in the same way) if that song had not become as popular as it did."
+6125,2,"Don't have it, but want it BADLY!!!","Rick West is truly an excellent and innovative old-school Florida breakbeat DJ. He will always go down in my book as one of the best. I have collected flavored beats 1-5. However, it's almost impossible for me to complete my collecton, I can't find flavored beats 6 and 7. If anyone out there can help me out with this issue I would gladly pay money for copies of 6 & 7 I know they are bangin' CD's because I've heard samples, especially flavored beats 6! Please contact me through my Email at [..]. I would appreciate it greatly!!!"
+6126,2,Great new music from Elliott...,"Too many reviews focus on the mix and production value, rather than the music! This CD is one of my favorite, as the songs span his career, and therefore have songs that could be on several of his older CDs. My favorites are XO and Either/Or, and I wasn't crazy about the Basement CD. I was hesitant to but this one, but I elated how amazing these songs are. BTW, the mix is great!"
+6127,1,Outrageous cost of use,"This is the third (and last carafe) I will purchase. Although the coffee maker is svelte and delivers good coffee, the carafe's break at a whisk of a touch. Replacement carafes are only available on line. The cost of replacement is almost the same as a new coffee maker. My suggestion and next step is to purchase what Target or Bed Bath & Beyond carry; coffee is coffee and most drip makers deliver a good cup of java - Mr. Coffee is reliable and much lest costly. Bye, bye Braun for this and any other products you sell."
+6128,2,More of Bobby Vinton's Greatest Hits,"I was so happy when I found this CD because it contained ""Petticoat White"". Who knew that a single song would be so hard to find. It's one of my dad's favorites, and he didn't want the anthology which had more songs than he wanted, so this CD was perfect for him, as it had all of his ""must have"" songs and it didn't cost over $100.00."
+6129,1,Not for adults,"I had the opportunity to work with Jim Varny shortly before his untimely passing. When I saw this video I remembered vaguely, that it was a TV program. What I didn't remember was that it is purely for little kids. I haven't been one of those for a very long time. It's a pretty silly program, but I'm sure kids got a kick out of it."
+6130,1,"Not great, but it was free","My boss was tossing the computer, and I picked it up and made it a Linux server. It's taken about 5 attempts at installation (so far) but hopefully I can get it to work.The computer is slow as hell (450 Mhz Pentium II) and has trouble running Linux. Obviously, no one would buy this computer as a primary machine, but it has worked in our lab for about 7 years. The fact that it still runs is encouraging."
+6131,2,Excellent!,"Como se dice...""I love this book!"" I would know how to say it but I let a cousin borrow my book and it's never been back in my hands and now she's in love with the Italian language. :) That's a good thing! Well, I found the same edition of this book at the library and 3 months later, I was practically fluent in Italian. It's been a few years since then and my ability to speak Italian is almost non-existent. This book is good for a quick review or if you want to learn to speak a language within no time (but with dedication!). You'll find common phrases, words, but you will also find important grammar lessons in this book--the key element in learning a language."
+6132,2,"Good reading, insightful, a little weird","There's something unsettling about Palahniuk's writing style - something that seems just not quite right - but his stories always pull me in and I have to read until the story's finished. All of the essays here had the same effect on me. Some are simply weird and appeal to the Beavis in us all (""Testy Festy""). Most are glimpses into cultural cast asides that we miss because we aren't looking. I liked the personal essays that mostly revolve around the reactions by Palahniuk and others in response to the success of the film ""Fight Club.""Good reading that makes you look a little harder at everything you take for granted."
+6133,2,One of my favorite books from my childhood,"I loved this book when i was a kid ... i knew it by heart, and still read it every day! I love Nicholas + I can't wait to have kids so that they can have the same magical experience with this cute little bunny ;-)"
+6134,1,NOT NEW!,"I purchased this CD thinking it would arrive in a sealed CD case as it was described as ""New"" however, the CD case was not sealed, therefore I cannot give this as a gift because it is obvious it is not new."
+6135,2,A magnificent work of fiction,"This is a magnificent book, a must-read, even though many people may consider it decidedly un-PC. Nabokov writes beautifully, and his characters are very, very human. The strange thing about the book is that one cannot but feel sympathy for Humbert Humbert, the paedophile narrator, who is as much a victim as his young lover. I also enjoyed the subtle, sly humour, and the wonderful afterword by Nabokov. I'm not sure if the afterword is included in this edition, but if not it is well worth getting a copy which has it.I also enjoyed the movie with Jeremy Irons, which did not get the critical acclaim it deserved..Also worth looking for is the spoof Lolita (I think it was called ""Grannita"") in Misreadings by Umberto Eco."
+6136,2,Perfect!,For serious riders who have more than one bike this is perfect. My touring bike has the smaller diameter handlebar while my road bike has the larger diameter handlebar. I needed two adapters but only one mount. Great price too!
+6137,2,18 inch reel mower is great,We have been pleasantly surprised by this wonderful mower. It it is quiet and easy to use....and peaceful
+6138,1,wat a load of crap,i had high hopes for bep album after listnin to songs like shut up and where is the love but wen i brought the album i was like why is evry1 saying this is a good album its crap. i wasted money on this album when i could of done something better like spend money on bog role.this must be the worst album yet from bep and probly the crappest album of the year. where is the love and shut up are the only good songs out of the album dont waste your money ive warned u
+6139,1,nostalgia only,"At the time, I had no idea how bad the writing was. Every plot movement is choreographed by necessity. You find yourself saying ""Why don't they just..."" in every scene. The dialogue is simply atrocious too. So far below the quality of the original miniseries (and even the second one) that you have to wonder what they were thinking.The DVD quality itself could not be worse. It's dark, muddy-looking. And, oh yes, lest I forget - the dreaded two-sided DVD's."
+6140,2,The Kids love them!!,"These are awesome little things. My children are 6 and 9 yrs old and they love their MP3 player! They hold plenty of songs for the kids to enjoy, and if you have a memory card and a card reader with usb, you can copy them easily from your computer to the memory card, which is supplied with the shaker. Now the shaker, we haven't been able to get them to change songs by shaking, but they are easy for them to control volume and change to the next song. The ear phones are a little big for the smaller ears, so I got cheap headphones to go with them. I would definately recommend them for any child that loves music."
+6141,2,Good test prep,"I purchased an older version so that I would have an idea of how the test is set up and what all is included. I am very happy with it. For the actual test prep it would probably be better to have a more recent edition, but if one has a basic understanding of the levels of math covered then the older version is just fine."
+6142,1,"one-""hit"" wonder","This album is a typical example of a band who has one creative thought, releases a somewhat original and catchy single, but is unable to come up with anything else of any value. If you liked ""Sucked Out"", buy the single."
+6143,1,"whatever happened to ""show don't tell""","If I had produced this novel for a fiction class at my local community college, I would have been sent back to remedial fiction writing ""show don't tell.""We are told throughout this book - what to think, what the characters are thinking etc etc.The plot is plodding, the whole structure is pointless - the author makes one protagonist, then another, then another until the reader is confused about who to root for...why intriduce John as a central antagonist when he's invisible for most of the story.This book is not only badly written, it's boring."
+6144,2,A Big Business Weapon,"I first read this great book in January 1999. Since then, I've made all colleagues across my organization go through it.The book is a fresh bath of common sense. It combines advanced strategic thinking on how to turn your customers into (as some author says) ""raving fans"". It also covers hundreds of tactical ideas, from planning to implementation, from hiring the right people to managing the creation of a true customer-centered culture.I'm not afraid to say this is the very best book on customer service I've read in my life. You can't go wrong with it. John Tschohl is, in fact, the customer service guru!Just 3 words for you: buy it now."
+6145,2,Adobe Photoshop Elements 4.0 Classroom in a Book,This is very well done and ready gives you good examples to learn with.
+6146,1,Never got it,"Bad service, never even got my book. Paid $20 on it and they gave me $10 back and replied to my complaints with automated emails. Not helpful."
+6147,2,EXCEPTIONAL BEAUTIFUL!!!,"1. Miracle -10/102. Brahms Lullaby - 8.5/103. If I Could - 9.5/104. Sleep Tight - 8/105. What A Wonderful World - 10/106. My Precious One - 10/107. A Mothers Prayer - 8/108. The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face - 7.5/109. Baby Close Your Eyes - 8.5/1010. Come To Me - 9/1011. Le loup, la biche et le chevalier (une chanson douce) - 8.5/1012. Beautiful Boy - 9.5/1013. In Some Small Way - 10/10"
+6148,1,Over priced pencil sharpener,"I spent the extra money purchasing this pencil sharpener, thinking it would not only work well, but last at least a year or two. Not so it sharpened ok the first few times, then it was just horrible, after 6 months no longer worked, and it's not like I used it every day. On occasion, when needed my son would use it -Don't waste your money on this over priced sharpener, you could probably get something even better for lesser money."
+6149,1,Bad Quality!,"YES - BAD QUALITY! Both of the batteries that came with this product shorted out within two weeks of purchase, and with minimum use. Avoid this bad quality product. Too bad, because otherwise the design was excellent."
+6150,1,Extremely disappointing,"I tried to give this DVD a chance. I really did. But it's just BAD. Poor lip-syncing, weak dancing (compared to what Spears demonstrated in the early years of her career), and a general lack of personality plague what should have been an amazing concert. The problem is not with the concert - the production is fantastic and the sets look really cool. The problem is Britney. It doesn't seem like her heart is in this. I expected a lot more from a Britney Spears concert DVD and I'm very disappointed that her record label would put something this mediocre out on the market."
+6151,2,fantastic dryer!!,this blow dryer is the best!!!! i have fine straight hair and this just does wonders for it. Where has this been all my life! Love it
+6152,2,Hummingbird,Did not think I would like this book...because it implied a mystical kind of story line. But got hooked quickly with the raw yet beautiful realism of the story.
+6153,2,Adorable toy keeps my dog's attention.,"My dog loves her Ginormous Hide-A-Squirrel toy. It occupies her longer than most toys do because she keeps playing until she gets all of the ""squirrels"" out of the ""tree trunk."" Then she picks one squirrel out of the bunch to continue playing with. This is a great toy to stimulate a dog's problem-solving skills, especially if she must be left alone for a while. Do you suppose I can train her to put them all back inside the plush trunk? Maybe not. She still doesn't return her toys to her toybox!"
+6154,2,Wonderful treat for great price,My dog loves this all natural treat and the price cannot be beat by any store.
+6155,1,my review,i liked how it was a book on a type of tribe. i liked the names in the book too. i didn't like how the book was. it was confusing. it was too long. i think it should or should not be read in class depending on the type of students in the class.
+6156,2,Underrated early Maiden,"Iron Maiden's first two albums are generally overlooked by many fans for some reason. It may be because of the absence of Bruce Dickinson. Yet, Killers, the band's second album is very strong in its own right. The album totally has the maiden vibe, with the execption that it does not have a long epic song. However, everything else is present: Strong guitars, great lyrics, and awesome bass lines. Lead singer Paul Di'anno is awesome, giving Maiden almost punk feel. Its good to see that maiden still plays a couple of these songs on their tours. Overall, this is solid release and a worthy album for any Maiden fan's collection. Check it out. You may become a fan!"
+6157,2,Beautiful Love Story,This book had me wrapped up from the begining to the end. Love was displayed on all levels. I was thoroughly impressed.
+6158,2,Professional Quality Finish,"I am so impressed with the finish that this product provides. Each year I apply a fresh coat of stain to my deck boards and I always used a brush, until I found this product. I was so impressed with the smooth even finish that it provided. I couldn't believe there were no brush strokes. For years I was use to seeing the brush strokes, now it looks like I hired a professional to stain my deck. This product also speed up the staining process, I couldn't believe how fast I got the job done with the stain stick.Home Right C800418 Stain Stick"
+6159,1,Leaks are major problem,"After many incidences of soaking my daughter by feeding her with these leaking bottles, or shaking them and splattering breastmilk or formula all over the kitchen, I strongly recommend not buying this product. Of all the things that are challenging and frustrating about caring for a new baby, bottle-feeding should not be one of them."
+6160,2,BROOKS' BEST!,"One of the funniest movies I've ever seen! My personal favorite by Mel Brooks. This is the kind of movie the public has come to expect from Brooks. Vulgar,silly,and competely irrelevant! The gags never let up! My favorite is the song and dance routine in the Spanish Inquisition! A must have for anyone who like Brooks! Or just likes to laughs!"
+6161,1,not helpful & full of errors.waste of your money,I used this book to study for the fe and I didn't find it to be helpful at all.Some of the material is outdated especially computer stuff.The book is full of errors.explainations are not clear.wish i had never come across this book.it was a waste of my money n time.
+6162,2,Terrific CD you should listen to it.,"I listen to this cd all the time it so good i especially like the first track on the cd, mariachi sol de mexico does such a good job I enjoy listening to cd."
+6163,1,Number two worst film of Wes Craven's carrer,In the scene that takes place centurys & centurys ago the characters talk with modern english instead of the type of english from long ago. Avoid it.
+6164,1,Uninspired at best,"One of the very first novels I read was Coma by the same author. And I loved it. I even got my sister hooked on him. However, I have to agree with many of the reviews on this list. My biggest complaint about this book is how fake the dialogue is between the characters. The action sequences (or lack thereof) slightly builds and never finishes. The psychological aspects of what the characters had to go through don't have any realism. Sad to say that although this book is very simply written and easy to understand and follow, it contains a rather predictable plot. Moreover, cloning has such broad implications that to waste it by focusing on the Wingate clinic and its facilities and security system is shameful.I really hope the next novel I read by this author doesn't fall into the same pitfalls this one does."

+6166,1,Don't buy this one,"My company bought this nailer and had problems with it setting the nails. We own Senco SFN 30 and 40 and like both as well as the Porter Cable DA250B. However, my favorite angled finish nailer is the Dewalt D51275K. See my review on it.Note:I have also had bad experience with Bostich nailers."
+6167,1,Legally Stupid,"What was the point of making this? What was the plot? Did Hollywood have one of there ""stupid"" days again? This is a terrible movie. What more is there to say. Just terrible and stupid. (is that blonde enough?)"
+6168,1,Little parts are funny...but still pretty lame,"I thin tom green is(was)kinda funny(although annoying) on his MTV show...and also i think Jason Lee is quite good also.But this movie just doesnt spark any amount of solid laughs,mediocreones maybe if that.All in all Tom Green just is'nt an ""Actor"" and he shouldnt try to be one either,he should stick best to doing what he does best.Being an annoying idiot:)"
+6169,1,This book could be better.,"Despite liking this book, I must state that there are some useful things I think it should have but it does not.No subject index in the end of the book. I constantly find myself having too much trouble looking for some specific topic in this book. There should be a name index also, for example, Boytim mentions a Dame Joan Sutherland anecdote, but once the book is closed, you'll have to search the entire book for that again. With a name index, that wouldn't happen.No bibliography. Now this is a shame. No other comments.Now the absence of these important features, which any good book will have, is a big disadvantage. Anyway, this will happen to any/every Hal Leonard book.This book could be better. Hal Leonard books could be better."
+6170,1,Didn't work well for me.,"Bought it brand new. Tried 2 of their recipes, one Krusteaz bread machine mix, two of my own recipes. None turned out right. This was my 4th bread machine, wore out the previous 3, so have lots of experience with bread machines, this one was the worst I ever had. Contacted the company, didn't get much help, just kept saying do a dough ball test, I explained that I had never had to do one before, in years and years of using bread machines. Just too much trouble...so, got myself a Zojirushi, even though lots more money it works like a champ...first time, every time, right out of the box!"
+6171,2,My review of Mahlers 1st Symphony on Naxos Musical Journey.,"After listening to this symphony by Mahler, I found the music to be most enjoyable, the recording was excellent, and the video photography was fantastic. This is an excellent bargin with Dolby and DTS surround sound play back. I enjoyed this DVD more then one that shows the conductor and orchestra because the scenery is beautiful,plays right into the music, and doesn't flash from one player to another, or to and from the conductor.I will be looking for other Naxos Musical Journeys."
+6172,2,Poems of longing and seperation,"This is one of my favorite anthologies of poetry, worth reading repeatedly. It captures the spirit of a man, so much like us all, who longs for that something beyond the next hill or behind the wistful smile. How many of us sense intuitively that life is wrapped in a mystery, the veil of separation thin? Hesse's poetry, like his novels, reminds me that even though the inner meaning to life often seems just beyond my reach, it is none the less to be found in the quotidian activities of breathing the fresh air, cutting the finger on the edge of a dish, or listening to Bach as I clean the garage. Written almost 90 years ago, his poetry still rings true to the wandering steppenwolfe in each one of us. ""The Gate of Heaven is everywhere.""You may also be captivated by another moving anthology of poetry, ""Against Forgetting"". It is an anthology of 20th century poems of witness, suffering, and hope."
+6173,1,AWFUL,"The problem with these tongs is that there is NO tension in them, NONE. Once you go to grab something they don't spring back open. The locking device is also a huge problem. Why? Because it locks the tongs shut when you don't want it too. I bought this because it was cheap and had good reviews. Do yourself a favor and look elsewhere. Buying these tongs makes as much sense as eating tomato soup with chop sticks."
+6174,1,"neck breaks, middle breaks too","I had this spatula less than a year and it broke between the spatula head and the neck. I had one other red kitchenAid spatuala and it broke too, but it broke at the insertion of the silver ring. So it broke in half. I was not doing anything unusual. My cheap ugly spatulas are still going strong after 7 years."
+6175,2,Better than the newer blades.,"I have gone back to using the Mach3 blades after switching to the Fusion for awhile. I think there is only so much noticeable improvement possible by adding blades, and the Mach3 seems to be the end of the road for me. Not only am I saving money by buying these, the blades actually seem to last longer than the Fusion blades.Note: I edited this review to make sure I mentioned the blades I buy are the ones directly sold by Amazon.com, not by a 3rd party seller since I have no idea if the quality of their blades are the same."
+6176,2,"Buy the studio version first, of course","You should buy this as a compliment to the studio version, surely not as a replacement. Is There Anybody Out There is good, afterall it's The Wall, however in my opinion the stuido version is much better and should be bought over this.being live adds a nice twist, but really isn't anything all that great... but maybe it might grow on me?maybe?"
+6177,2,Eurkea,"One of my favorite shows of all time. It was quirky, fun, and just plain enjoyable. It was the little things like Tesla High, the water fountain in the middle of the town, etc. that made me really pay attention.A really enjoyable show - I am really going to miss this series."
+6178,1,This record is a BOOTLEG - Do Not Buy it.,"I work for Columbia Records / Legacy Recordings and I know that this company whoever they are has no right to be selling this set in the US. Perhaps it is an import. In Europe this classic material is Public Domain. No royalties are being paid to the artist estate.While the price is right, the artist and record company is being ripped off."
+6179,2,It's not bad,"This game is ok. It was very easy, but my kids (ages 4 & 6)really like it so that is all that matters. I beat the game in less than a day. It would have been better if it had more places to go and more things to do, but overall i liked it."
+6180,1,junk,i thought this router was a great fit because it included a print server and port. worked on and off for a couple of hours then could not connect. notice two amber lights. read the manual and learned they have a LED dedicated just to inform you that their product is defective. i think that speaks for itself.
+6181,2,Classic!!,"I read this book 3 times.Fist time as a college student. I had been told if I was going to medical school then I had to read it. I thought it was the most perverted, sexist, racist and generally horrid piece of trash I had ever come across. I could not for the life of me understand why anyone would tell me this was a book to read.Second time was as a 3rd year. I still thought it was pretty bad but perhaps had some redeeming moments and was worth reading.Third time was the middle of internship - before the kinder gentler 80h work week limits - on my one vacation of the year. I literally fell out of my chair splitting my sides laughing."
+6182,2,The Secret Life of Bees,"Great book, I enjoyed it very much. More of a chick book but I'm in touch w/ my feminine side."
+6183,2,pitfall,this is a very good movie that i really enjoyed.the acting was excellent and the story is also excellent. dick powell is very good in suspence movies.
+6184,2,A Breath of Fresh Air,"Everybody is influenced by something or someone. And you can hear all kinds of different influences here. So what? These guys have got it going on. The first time I heard ""On My Way"" I found myself singing along before the song was over. This stuff makes me feel good."
+6185,1,Not so much,Panties feel flimsy and fall off. They are not my favorite Vanity Fair. I was disappointed as I usually love their products.
+6186,1,Offensive to the max.,"Just going to put it out there... this book is CREEPY. And really offensive to women. My sister got it as a wedding gift, and needless to say she threw it in the recycling after discovering the scum between the pages.Do. Not. Get. This. Book."
+6187,2,Solid set,Good collection. Not a huge Bond fan but needed something for the Blu-ray and the $100 Black Friday week Lightning Deal was too good to pass up.Case feels like it belong on a bookshelf. Movies look great.For full price it is probably lacking a few extra goodies.
+6188,2,Great playmat !!,This is a great playmat. I had not registered for it but it was given to me as a gift. When I opened the gift I thought my 2 month old daugter is not going to like that. She loved it! To understand how exciting that is you must know my daughter has been colic since 3 weeks. She constantly wanted to be held. We layed her down adjusted the mirror so she could see herself on her back and she loves it. The toys are also great because you can take them off and she holds on to them when we leave the house.
+6189,2,Heated curler,Excellent for my short lashes. I do not pinch my eyelid anymore! Just be sure to follow the directions and do not touch your eyelid it definitely gets hot.
+6190,1,What a shame,"Beautiful voice, but so much anger in the lyrics ruins the cd. I was offended just reading every name on this cd...It is really a shame, what pretty ""vulgar"" voice. If this cd sells millions will you be proud of the message of hate you just pushed into millions of ears. You should be ashamed of yourself as an artist, as you have such power, but it is spent on prepetuating hate. Nina Simone was a angry artist also, but not once did she offend me (caucasian male) with her lyrics and all of her hate for racism in america. The first song I ever heard of hers ""Mississippi Goddam"" made me cry, so emotionally charged and commanding of a voice. There will always be a ""racist america"" because people are selfish, but be responsible as a descent human being and as an artist. I liked the cd until I heard the lyrics, one less sale adds up after awhile."
+6191,2,I recommend it,Kids loved it . . . when they're happy - I'm happy!8 more words?!!!! What more can I say?!!!
+6192,1,DO NOT BUY IT,I bought this last year for my daughter. It is complete JUNK !!Everything that can fall off this limo - DOES !! The doors never stayed on and the roof always slid off.Save yourself the aggrevation -
+6193,2,Outstanding!,"Love this toothpaste. It's a natural product, and helps improve gum disease. I've struggled with slight gum irritationg for a couple of years and Thieves toothpate combined with the Thieves mouthwash has improved my gums. As a diabetec good oral hygene is critical."
+6194,2,Nice Overview for Trio Fans,"If you're a Kingston Trio Fan, this is a great overview of the Trio's long career. My mom is a big fan, and I got this DVD for her birthday. Even as keen a follower as my mom has been of this group, she mentioned that there was plenty of info on the DVD that even she didn't know. Recommended for fans."
+6195,2,Wha'cha say?,"I didn't know this book existed until I finished a set of cds and it was suggested reading. I found this book to be very helpful and informative. I did have a hard time with some of the Bible verses, because I don't read the KJV, but I read the New International Version (NIV). Yet, regardless, I was able to get through the verses just fine. I would recommend anyone who is looking to boost their self confidence and improve their life. It is a very uplifting book. Hung by the Tongue shares how the words from our mouths are not always uplifting for anyone, including ourselves. It suggested you take a look at how you are speaking to your self, what are the messages you are giving to yourself and how it impacts those around you. Words are powerful. They can bring you down, just as easily lift you up. Hung by the Tongue reminds you that were created to be a blessing and you are blessing to those around you. It suggests you watch what you say."
+6196,2,Star girl,I love this book it's so cute.I do not like the ending as much because it's not very happy but yet your curios on what is going to happen in the next book.
+6197,1,Bad 80s Music,"I bought this used at a record shop because it was in the Heavy Metal bin & I liked the cover, sort of. But it's just bad ""look how fast we can play"" 80s rock. Some of it is ""we're boring dino-farts"" Genesis [blech! ]style pomp-rock. If you are into REAL Metal like Rage Against The Machine, Korn & Marilyn Manson, skip this 80s trash. If you're into bad hair+scales=bad rock from the 80s, by all means, lap it up!"
+6198,2,amazing x-perience,"I've been a dedicated fan of the x-files since i was 8 years old and from a fans point of view this movie doesn't disappoint!I thought the chemistry between mulder and scully was not only still there but stronger than ever.the story was an adult mystery, with a sci-fi twist.I really enjoyed this movie, and I highly recommend it."
+6199,2,Grindcore Masters,"This album came out in 94 and its still as fast and uncontrolable as many of todays grind-gods. It takes a while to get into and some tracks are a bit hit or miss (or too long) but on this album there is one of the best grindcore songs written. Track 12 weighs in at just under 2 minutes and is a schizo, claustrophobic, brutal punky mix of inhuman proportions. Just check it out. Trks 13, 10 and 5 also don't dissapoint.This album is out under the great Earache records but their most recent sampler contained some very nu-metal-ish bands. Not Good!"
+6200,1,Hilarious.,"Being of Persian origin may harm my objectivity, but I must speak up. This book didn't offend me in the least, the way many persians were, instead i found it downright funny. It was childish and far-fetched, and the writer was obviously bitter about the fact that she didn't get a fairy-tale ending in her life. I was not in the least upset about this book, because anyone's opinion about my culture that i would care about would not change due to this hilarious writing."
+6201,2,Lots of fun!,"I enjoyed this movie a lot. I laughed a lot! You will too, if you are looking for something that is delicious and dumb at the same time! But it works. Marley Shelton (Valentine) and James Marsden (X-Men) are great in this movie. Don't miss it."
+6202,1,An Insurrection?!?,"The author calls the conservative movement an ""insurrection"", as if conservative ideas are revolutionary and something that needs to be put down. This book does not demand a serious discussion, just a straightforward dismissal. Liberal claptrap at its worst."
+6203,2,It Works and Was Clean,Came with extra bags and belt. Works so far. Would rather have a bagless with hepa filter--but for the price and the built in duster/cleaner-I thought it was worth a try.
+6204,2,something inside so strong,"i just wanted to thank you for such a inspiritional song,my football team plays it befor every game,the words are very moving and it helps my players relax,we played it last year befor a big championship game,i think that's what helped us win.keep writing words like that and we will play it over and over.again thank you very much, squiggy.(manager of the norwich purple tornado football team)"
+6205,2,Works well with newer televisions.,"Bought two for two different tvs. It plugged into back of one no problem but the other required a 3.5mm female RCA to stereo adapter, which isn't included."
+6206,2,Slippery Seat,"Overall, I am happy with this seat. It is very comfortable and the castors work well. My only complaint is that the seat is very slippery. very very slippery. But its still wicked cool. I will definately buy more of these stools."
+6207,1,"Poor quality product, no customer service","I bought this bag less than 1 year ago and now it needs to be repaired in two points: clip and interior compartment broken. I went to the Authorized Repair Facility and they wnated to charge me $45 since apparently it was produced by a Licensee even if it is impossible to know that when you buy. I wrote an email to the Customer service but their website does not work properly and I could not subimt the form on line. Then I wrote an email to the webmaster mentioning this problem, but no reply...Not a good product and service at all.Will never buy again a Samsonite."
+6208,2,Rio Bravo,This player rocks! If you want a durable MP3 player you can't go wrong with the 500. I take oRIOn (cool name huh?) with me on bike rides. One time I was riding down a stretch of road and while replacing the batteries and it flew out of my hand and skidded down the pavement. I thought oRIOn was dead! Needless to say he was AOK (just a little scarred up).PROs Tough as nails. Plenty of memory. Button layout. Volume level range. You can actually hear the music! USB.CONsSoftware - Can't delete multiple songs from the database with a single selection. Battery is a little tough to get to (see above).The moral of the story? Don't replace and ride.
+6209,2,Happy,Very very happy with this product. I didn't have any trouble with the latch - but I only wear earrings like these. Wonderful quality
+6210,2,"Great gift for someone of ""The Greatest Generation""","This was purchased as a birthday gift. The recipient was delighted and has reported many hours of sheer bliss (she is a musicals lover, 83 years young). The shipment arrived even before the date indicated, so surprised the giftee on her birthday despite my tardiness in ordering."
+6211,1,Jammed on the third role - not worth the money,"I bought this camera specifically to take underwater pictures in the Galapagos islands. When I finished my third role of film the camera jammed during the rewind process and I was unable to get the role out of the camera. I had to send it back to Minolta and they exposed my film - which means I lost 33% of the pictures I took. The rolls that I was able to develop were mediocre - I could have taken pictures that were just as good with a $10 disposable Kodak. Overall, this camera is grossly overpriced for the quality of pictures it produces (assuming it doesn't break within the first month)"
+6212,1,Dont buy this phone from here,I recently got this phone from amazon together with the Cingular family plan etc. The phone battery never gets fully charged no matter how long I charge it. And discharges after just 2 days with hardly 1 hr of talk time. From what i hear this phone is generally quite good but it seems these guys on Amazon are selling some defective pieces so please dont buy it from here if at all you want to buy it.
+6213,1,Shame,"This album is truly a shame. It is also a shame that there are people in this world who consider Disturbed to be ""metal."" Let me tell you something, metal is heavy because the bands that play it are angry and want to make a point. No metal band makes a song called ""prayer"", or an album called ""believe"". PRAYING TO GOD IS NOT METAL, IT'S FREAKIN POP! Not only that, but Disturbed have absolutely NO talent. Wheres a guitar solo? Oh, i forgot, they don't know how to solo. And the drums, sorry disturbed, but you CANT play metal with a five piece and no double pedal. If you want to listen to some guy trying to yell while other guys tap a drum and play a power chord in the background, youre gonna love this. Otherwise, i suggest passing this album up to your local priest or whoever thinks metal should be about prayer and kindness. METAL IS DEATH. And if youre really cool, you'll listen to REAL metal bands - long live SLAYER, DIMMU BORGIR, and CRADLE OF FILTH!!"
+6214,2,Intriguing and a Cut Above,"Unless you hate lurid sex (and who doesn't)you should give this book a chance. It may annoy you or entertain you but a week later there is a good chance you will thing about it which may be the measure of a decent book. The main character, who clearly allows a look into Theroux's mind at least as far as travel writing, is self-indulgent and cynical and so often right on with his view of the rich and sophisticated. They reveal themselves by their reactions to his feigned disability. In the course of things his own weaknesses are uncovered. Not a nice book but you can read Harry Potter and take a shower when you are done."
+6215,1,LORD KNOWS ALONE.,"THERE'S NOTHING SPECTACULAR ABOUT THIS MAN'S [?] WORK EXCEPT THE rather TIRESOME HOMOEROTIC ELEMENTS ..... someone let this deprived kid out of his cage and here we have it - ""same old - same old"" as we move through his ""ARTISTIC ACHIEVEMENTS"".WHOOPIE .... Fosse did it with much aplomb and originality .... again ""OH-RIDGE-AH-NA-LI-TEA"" ........THIS {f}art [no sweeter way of describing it] reminds me of the very overheated and moist atmosphere in London's seamy ""underground"" ..... you WERE around circa 1950 - 1952 .... London and the cottage industry?Lets sanitize and move on - nothing really current inspires ..... where is true genius instead of this rehashed old drek???PROBLEM is - this is setting the bar[re] for the young hopefulls ... BOY are they in for a shock...... UGH - let's just flush this as kitsch???"
+6216,2,"Very good, even with all the time.","Freelancer is a surprisingly good time, even though it is showing it's age a little. I bought this item because my computer is very outdated, and I wanted to play a new game. I was surprised at how satisfying this game still is. It feels open ended, but still keeps you moving towards a clear goal. The mod community is also excellent, and there are lots of fun mods to play with, and it seems more coming out every day."
+6217,2,MultiPlayer Fun,Mario Kart is a good game with decent graphics but it's nothing new. The idea is simple: pick your favorite Mario character and race them over courses on go-karts. One of the fun parts is the weapons you get to hinder the other racers. The real fun in this game though lies in the multiplayer. After a few weeks you will have compleated most courses in single-player mode and it becomes boring really fast after that. The multi-player races and battles make this game worth it. If you want a fun game everyone can play this is it but don't expect too much after that.
+6218,2,puzzled about editor,why is the editor of this book listed as Andrew j. Buda in the search and Brenda Adderly in the link?
+6219,2,"Chock-full of info, but needs an index!","I'm not going to summarize the text, since other reviews have done that very well. The only thing I want to contribute is that I bought the Kindle version for my iPod, and it doesn't have an index. I've had to return to the table of contents multiple times and still needed to guess where a keyword might appear. (Would you know, for example, that the ""minus"" set difference function appeared in the section titled, ""Retrieving values from one table that do not exist in another"" if you were unfamiliar with SQL?) There is so much information in this book that I reference constantly, and an index complete with hyperlinks to appropriate sections would have helped so much! As it is, I need the paper version of this book for my office, and the Kindle to read on the bus to work. Still, I would HIGHLY recommend this book to anyone who uses SQL, no matter what platform."
+6220,2,Important tools,These tools suits some person who is not a mechanic...they are very strong tools...being a woman I am able to manage them quick well..not big and difficult to use...these tools are can be use around the home...especially to help remove a screw on the lawn mower and the weed trimmer.....
+6221,1,A Bit Disappointed,I've had this product for almost a year now--roughly 11 months since I first bought it. The side seam has begun to rip and the hole there is getting larger and larger by the day. The material used to make the sackpack is good and you'd think that it would last much longer than 11 months but mine has begun to rip. I am a bit disappointed considering that it's an Adidas sackpack.And it wasn't like I put this bag to anything hardcore either. It was used mainly as a bag to carry my work clothes to and from work. I've never filled the bag to the point it couldn't fit anymore in the 11 months I've used this bag.I don't recommend buying this bag unless you don't mind it lasting only a year at most.
+6222,1,Melanie fans beware!,"That Kid Chris seems to have a knack for producing minimalistic trance dance tracks, and truly, ""Come With Me Tonight,"" will take you in; HOWEVER, if you're a Melanie fan and looking for something new and exciting, this is not the cut! The CD jacket indicates vocals by Melanie, but the only ""vocal"" that even remotely resembles Melanie is the chronic, breathy and yes, SPOKEN line of ""come with me tonight."" There is one other female vocal ""line"" that repeats throughout the entire song as well, but this sounds more like an electronic young Aretha Franklin. Who would want vocals from Melanie on their cut without using her truly unique and incredible VOICE to its maximum power? Unfortunately, That Kid Chris."
+6223,1,"Shoddy, unprofessional copy - don't buy it","I bought this to teach to high school seniors instead of the New Directions edition, which also contains Miss Lonelyhearts. I was attracted by the interesting cover, but the inside copy is not professionally laid out. There are misspelled words and the formatting is way off. Lines break in some places for now reason at all. The paragraphing needs work, too. It seems to me that this was rushed to press without quality control. Seeing how the New Directions edition is cheaper,and contains Lonelyhearts I see no reason to buy this. This company should do better work before issuing great books like this."
+6224,2,Looking at Ender's Game all anew,"I respect Orson Scott Card a lot for innovating in his writing and trying new things. Ender's Shadow is a perfect representation of Card at his best. Ender's Shadow is essentially a retelling of Ender's Game through the character of Bean's eyes. While Ender and Bean were both brilliant students at Battle School, Card gives Bean a different and compelling backstory. Unlike Ender, who came from a middle-class American home, Bean rose from the mean streets but has genetically enhanced mental abilities. What I love is how Card toys with the parallel development of Bean and Ender. Ender, the lovable, friendly kid, becomes lonely through the burdens of command. Bean, the rough kid who depends only on himself, learns to form strong bonds with his troops.If you read Ender's Game and liked it, definitely read this book. Then reread Ender's Game again to really appreciate Card's ability to retell a story and make it fresh."
+6225,1,Lots of soy taste ; far inferior to Wowbutter,"We've tried several brands of soy butter when our daughter was flagged as being sensitive to peanuts. I'd pass on this soy butter in preference for WowbutterWowbutter (2 Pack). The I.M. Healthy has a LOT of soy taste that is unpleasant and unexpected for me, a lifelong peanut butter eater.The Wowbutter flavor profile is just a lot more similar to ""real"" peanute butter and is great for sandwiches. I don't know how the I.M. Healthy and Wowbutter would fare relative to each other when cooking with them."
+6226,1,BOOOOOOO!!!,"Please!! Don't buy this CD!!! I BOUGHT IT!! Actually, my Uncle got it for me. Please, don't get it. It's WORTH NOTHING AT ALL! She may be pretty, but she says swear words, and she doesn't write any of her songs. And she cand NEVER STAY ON JUST ONEEEE NOTE!!!..."

+6229,2,If you love the Golden Age of travel...,"The book and labels are fantastic! I purchased some old luggage, applied these labels, and had instant, vintage luggage! The labels are great reproductions with vivid color. The booklet has a lot of information on the history of luggage labels and the Golden Era of travel. A great addition to any collection!"
+6230,1,Arrived in poor condition,"I purchased the St. Joseph home sale kit for a friend who has been struggling to sell her house. It wasn't an expensive gift but it was a gift nonetheless. However, the kit was shipped in an ordinary padded envelope and its little cardboard box didn't survive the rigors of the postal service. It was dented and smashed. In addition, the cardboard packaging looked like it had been exposed to moisture, it was slightly puffed in areas and looked old and used. Overall the kit that I received was not in gift-giving condition although the contents were unharmed. It was very disappointing."
+6231,2,Probably the best book that I ever read!!!,"I read this book four or five years ago and it still is the book against which I judge all others. I am a fast reader and pretty much read all of the current literature, but this book took me about three weeks to read (even on the second go-round!!) I was amazed that somebody could know the head and heart of a woman so well and put it into words. I would read a chapter and reread it for the poetry and words. A few chapters stand alone as short stories. I was not surprised to read that chapters appeared in the New Yorker. This is just a beautiful book. It's too bad that the movie was so bad. I had to buy a brand new book because I wore the other one out. This book should be Oprah's book of the summer. Every woman should read this book. Take your time--it seems to move slowly, but enjoy the poetry of it. THE BEST!!!!!"
+6232,1,PSP Core Gamer External Battery,"When I first plugged in the PSP Core Gamer External Battery, it worked great. The recharging Amber light was on and working. After 15 minutes it was off. I thought maybe my PSP was fully charged. I tuned on my PSP and saw that there were only 2 battery bars. I thought maybe I didn't charge the PSP Core long enough. I charged it for about 2 hours. Same thing. Maybe it takes a long time to charge. I charged it for 16 hours just to make sure. I plugged it into my PSP and only got 15 minutes of charge time. I left my PSP on to drain the battery. Same thing. 15 minutes of charge time. This is junk. Don't get it. Even if mine was a dud, there will be others. Another reviewer said his was a dud too. I can't find a good portable rechager. I had a portable rechager call PSP Power Block and that worked great. I can't find it again."
+6233,1,Almost Disappointing,"I picked up this book at a time in my life when I had a lot of complicated problems, and was hoping that by reading the stories of others' experiences, there would be some sort of comfort to be found. However, most of the stories in here are pretty cliched, uninspiring and sappy descriptions of problems that came nowhere near to the depth I was needing and hoping for. For teenagers who are dealing with tough issues, this book can make you feel more alone because it seems that no one who contributed to the book went through anything particularly serious. With a few exceptions, this book remains a frivolous and meaningless description of Brady Bunch problems in a serious world."
+6234,1,Boring,"Puzzle after puzzle after puzzle with very little action or story. The graphics are from the last century and still too much for my xbox from time to time. Most boring game ever. I usually play all games to the end, but this one I had to stop in the middle to avoid death from boredom."
+6235,1,Performance is good but I hate video touch.,"I chose this DVD based on the name of the quartet. The performance was good to excellent, but I really hate the video part of production. The stage is sometimes completely dark, intentionally. Sometimes it shows only small stream of light to certain player's face. Sometimes the screen shows all the side of players,etc. I guess the producer tried to make his own stage drama based on this music.I was not able to concentrate the music itself because the screen images change through the intention of producer's mind. And also I can not follow through the composer's score by watching players playing. It was really sad that I stopped to watch this DVD as it was too much distract me to watch."
+6236,2,Cagney by Brooklyn,"Reading about James Cagney written by himself was the best way to understand Mr. Cagney. I enjoyed his anecdotes, incidences and thoughts throughout the entire book. I appreciated this actor's wide range of acting from gangters to song & dance man. Truly an enjoyable journey into this very fascinating humble man's life. This book is written as though James was speaking right to you--having a conversation with you. Most enjoyable!"
+6237,1,Not what most theatre buffs would hope for,"As one of the last important figures in 20th Century musical theatre, Tommy Tune was part of many important shows. One would hope his autobiography would include at least some insight into his performing and directing techniques -- but such is not the case here. As for his personal life, Mr. Tune shares a great deal -- but it is hard to rely on the frankness of someone who seems to change his sexual preferences as easily as most of us change clothes. And the chapter discussing the woman he wronged but refuses to name is so obvious in who it refers to that the author's sincerity rings false. Some interesting anecdotes and photos not found elsewhere, but overall a great disappointment."
+6238,2,so funny,i have seen this movie before but i wonted to watch it agian so my son and i watched it together cuz he has never see it and i tell u what my son and i could not stop laughing and he is only 5 years old and at one point he was on the floor laughing so hard. if anyone wonts to watch a movie with there kids and laugh with them this is the movie to watch.
+6239,2,Gift for Mom,Classic Reggae... my mom wore out the records back in the dayz. Had to surprise her with this CD. A great addition to your collection.
+6240,1,Started off wonderful...,"This stethoscope was just what I needed. I could hear manual BPs with ease and lung sounds clearly. Unlike other stethoscopes, it did not feel like it was placing a strain on my neck. Plus my patients always had a pleasant comment about it. Well less than 3 months after receiving it, I bent over to get my pen and it fell from around my neck. Well the heart cracked off and flew across the room. There was no repairing it. The metal portion ( which I guess was aluminum) that was embedded in the heart made a clean break. I am saddened and disappointed in the quality. It was nice while it briefly lasted."
+6241,1,Pretty Disappointed,"Well, Suze Orman is a financial guru, that's true, but is it just me, or does she think the entire world is full of morons when reading a book? This book seems to not be geared towards women, but to 2nd graders. I found it far too easy to follow without a lot of great information. Yes, we should take control of our finances, yes, we should have a will and living trust, yes, we should save for retirement. Of course we SHOULD. But how can we when we can barely make ends meet? The truth is, we can't. This book does not show you where to get the money, but what to do with it once you do. And she doesn't fully explain that money market accounts, the stock market, the economy isn't a for sure thing and that you usually get a 9% rate of return, but the truth is, you could also lose all of your invested money as well. I don't really recommend this book. I recommend Frugal Living for Dummies instead."
+6242,2,Better than anticipated,"Above par action movie. The bad guys are, as usual, really bad. The people to be saved, pure of heart. And John Rambo is pissed. Not a good thing for the bad guys. But the viewers will enjoy. A high gore content to please the video game crowd. An ending could be a sequel or did ""Gran Torino"" close that option."
+6243,2,Good!,The first person to review this could not have known how the game was because it wasn't out to buy yet. It is probably going to be a great game!
+6244,1,O'neil is a Texas Fat Boy just looking for his 15 minutes,"He really should get a life and stop living the only thing that he must feel he did correctly. A war no one in the United States should have been involved in, that really does not need to be part of the US's choices today for an election in 2004. He needs to crawl back into the stink hole of a city (Houston) he lives in and continue to represent good ole' boys' network."
+6245,1,Don't Buy,"This thing couldn't find a stud if it were placed on top of one without a wall seperating it. I get readings all over a wall like there are studs everywhere. A true piece of junk. I followed the instructions and nothing worked. The only reason I give it one star is because I can't give it a ""no star""."
+6246,2,"Great movie, good quality BLU-RAY","Video 4.6Audio 4.5Extras 2.9Clint Eastwood's Masterpiece.Clint Eastwood's masterpiece has finally arrived this season and it's aptly called: ""Changeling""."
+6247,1,Disapointed,Quality very poor. Velcro in wrong places need purchase additional stripes to make it work. 1/3 of them broke off. It did not last three months. Sorry to say this but..... NO GOOD
+6248,1,Team Franken?,"When I found out that ""Team Franken"" consisted of 14 Harvard undergrads who were charged with fact checking and debating, I knew what was coming. I wasn't wrong. There's nothing wrong with supporting a predetermined point of view, but that doesn't make it either objective or factual. Just more of the heated rhetoric and name-calling we get from both sides. Historians a hundred years from now are going to have one helluva time separating the wheat from the chaff, to put it diplomatically. This book is just more chaff to go with the Sean Hannity, Ann Coulter chaff, not to mention the 14 Harvard undergrads."
+6249,1,not true,totally distorts the truth. Obama was raised by his American Mother and grandparents.Africa had almost no influence on him.
+6250,2,1 of 2 under-rated CD's by the Bee Gees,"While The Bee Gees were enjoying the success of their biggest selling albums like ""Main Course"" and ""Spirit's Having Flown"". There was 2 albums that were very under-rated because neither produced any hits. One of them titled ""Mr. Natural"" released in 1974 and this diamond in the ruff ""Life In A Tin Can"" released in 1973. I guess you could call these years for the Bee gees as the transition years from soft rock to the disco era. While Mr. Natural brought us closer to the upcoming new sound. Life In A Tin Can gave us the scenic route through the country (music) side of the Brothers Gibbs. All the selections on this CD are easy listening and relaxing tunes. I think that ""Come Home Johnny Bridie"" and ""While I Play"" had the potential of being top 40 country hits for the trio. And while I'm not a fan of remakes as I mention in my other reviews. I think ""South Dakota Morning"" would be perfect for country music's greatest Mr. Alan Jackson."
+6251,2,Great for teaching turn-play,"This is a good toy to teach your child turn-play. The quality of the material is okay. There are extra cherries now in the box(there were negative reviews in the past about this). The size is right, the colors are vibrant, durability is just fine. But again, its value comes from its easiness to teach turn-play. Children gave a better reaction to waiting and taking turns while playing Cherry-O when compared to playing with Candyland. A little pricey but all similar toys are around this price."
+6252,1,This tape doesn't concentrate on every Survivor Series,"This tape is almost the same replica of the Best of Survivor Series in 1997 shown on the USA Network. What was really bad that they skipped Survivor Series 88,91,92,. When they said Shawn Michaels made his debut in 89, actually it was in the 88 Survivor Series. They showed to many clips on Hogan/Andre. They didn't even have the right commentary on 89 or 87. They did not include Ventura and too much was spent on the single matches"
+6253,2,Ease Up!,"Come on folks, this book wasn't as bad as the reviews I've read! Tom Clancy is one of the greatest writers of our time and this book is actually pretty entertaining. Sure it's not one of his best works, but it was still able to keep me interested and excited to keep reading! His insights into the KGB and the plot to kill the Pope were first rate as was his view of the world through a low level KGB clerk. Only Clancy's knowledge could give us such insights!Go easy on the man that has given us fantastic reads...this one included!"
+6254,2,Perfect Christmas Gift,I find that the producted was as described and a great value for the price. Great gift for Christmas! Very Happy indeed!
+6255,2,The scenic drives described have been well researched.,The author has researched the scenic drives described in this book thoroughly. There is information included for people of all ages to enjoy from scenic photography to hiking and fishing. Also included are listings of travel services on each scenic drive.
+6256,1,In a word.....Bad,"With a misleading title like that (and a price like that), this book is bound to disapoint the reader. The most shocking feature of this awful book is the quality of the pictures. There are far better books out there covering the same subject at half the price and 10 times the quality."
+6257,1,A Day No Pigs Would Die.,I think this book was a little to descriptave. It was horrible and mean. I'm not saying I'm a sissy it's just the part with the dog and the weasel!! I mean what the heck were they thinking!????? I truly have to admit this was the worst book I have ever had to read!!!!!!!! Do not read this book if you love animals. It will tear your heart in half! :0( I feel so bad for animals who are slaughtered for stupid reasons like not being able to have children or because there the runt. I Hated this book!!
+6258,1,MADE IN CHINA - Not typical Godinger LEAD Crystal,"It is pretty, but does not shine like real LEAD CRYSTAL.Although the product description does not say 24% Lead Crystal, I was expecting this to be like other Godinger Crystal - which is 24% Lead Crystal, made in Czeck Republic or Poland.I ordered this to replace an identical vase that broke. I compared the box from my original vase to this one. I was disappointed. It is pretty, but not the quality crystal I expected.My Original VaseBox States: Godinger 24% Lead Crystal, Made in Czeck RepublicThis Replacement VaseBox States: Godinger Crystal Vase, Made in CHINALesson learned - if it doesn't say it, don't expect it."
+6259,1,Not what I expected.,"Haven't had a chance to watch the movie yet, but was very disappointed when I received it to open and find that the disc is front and back, making it necessary to stop the movie halfway through to turn the disc over. Definitely would not have purchased it if I had known this up-front."
+6260,1,Ski Resort Tycoon II,"This game is awful, it looks like so much fun and isn't at all. There are a lot of hangups and it doesn't run well. Waste of money, which isn't necessarily the seller's fault. It got here in good condition and on time, it is just a horrible game."
+6261,1,It confusing Services?,"This book is very formal approach to IT services. Please don't give it to your customers/clients it will scare them. If you need humor or analogies to make things clear consider another book.The book is very hard to read with wordy sentences. Simplicity is much better, and this book makes some things even more confusing."
+6262,2,not good buy but great perfume,"perfume seems cheap but cheaper in ebay sorry amazon its true,but great product amazon is the best though in tracking number shipping quality gotta be honest with the readers,this perfume is my fav its very sweet and girly im a candy lover and that why i luv it!"
+6263,2,A WELCOME BREAK FROM THE MONOTONY OF THE MAINSTREAM,"As the other reviewers point out this is not a straight foward single genre album. It mixes styles akin to Radiohead's ''Kid A'', gloomy indie style vocals and experimental hip-hop.I bought this on the same day i got B.R.M.C and Preston School of Industry and i listened to Hood after listening to those. It really took me back and made me listen in depth (whereas the others struggled to take a hold on the listener, not that they weren't anygood.)Easily the best song on this album has to be track 3, while the most likely single is track 6. Tracks 1, 2, 4 and 10 also are very very good however tracks 5, 7 and 8 are an unstructured mess and would fit into KID A easily. This 'underground' band really are different and worth a listen.Avoid if you like the simple easy to comprehend mainstream sounds of bands like the Stereophonics and Travis."
+6264,1,Confusing,I thought the plastic bobbins were the round bobbins for threading the bottom side of the sewing machine. It's not. The bobbins here are flat plastic pieces to put leftover thread on.
+6265,1,I'm curious...,I hesitate to even consider buying this item because the product description is so vague and no one has bothered to give a review and with only one left in stock someone is bound to have something to say about it. Does this DVD contain nature sounds alone without music? Can you please give a little more detail? I realize it's only $8.99 yet I still need to know more before I purchase. I've been burned too many times on spending $20-$50 on vague descriptions. Not again.
+6266,1,"Should have been called, 'The Pacifist Quotation Book'","First, I want to make it clear that there are quite a few excellent quotes on the military, war, courage, leadership, and so on. Exactly what you are buying the book for.However, I would estimate that more than half the quotes are snarky sarcasm and anti-war, anti-military in nature, sneering that the military tradition and necessity.Perhaps this is the author's notion of ""fair and balanced"". Technically, the quotes are all about the military and war.Perhaps others will find the words of, say, Ursula LeGuin, to be worthwhile and insightful on the nature of these things. I do not. I find it to be a waste of my time."
+6267,2,28 Days,"Watching Sandra Bullock play something that you could never imagine her being, is very well done! She is fun and still her naturally goofy self. This gets a little heart warming and it's still a great love story. I definitely recommend watching this!"
+6268,1,J Lo. stop singing,"How on earth this woman is still ""making music"" is beyond me.During an interview, she did not even recognize her own remix..."
+6269,1,SUCK dont bother buying this Leap Frog does not stand behind their poorly made toys,Coins jam up non stop...called leap frog and they will not do anything about it. Very disapointed. Guess I will stick to Fisher Price where they stand behind their toys!
+6270,1,Dull cutter,This was a waste of money. The triming tool is too dull...after cutting one shade it was rendered useless.
+6271,2,A strange world surfaced,"Sarah Scott brings a very unique vision to life in the pages of this novel. As a characterization of ""real"" persons it offers virtually nothing. However, the utopian world created around the story's protagonist, the at times sickeningly benevolent George Ellison, provides a stable and almost academic model upon which later utopians and dystopians would work. The book itself is easy to read, the text being appropriately sized and the font pleasing to the eye. What I find to be annoying however is the editor's choice not to use footnotes and instead include a list of notes (like a glossary) at the end of the text. While this keeps the pages from appearing cluttered, it is not at all user friendly."
+6272,2,cool magnets!,"Just received these (stocking stuffer for my husband, I'm sure he'll like them). They're small, a little under 1 inch but seem well made, they don't look cheap. The magnets aren't super strong(fair), which is fine with me though. Glad I got them:)"
+6273,1,Good Camera - Poor Fit for Thinkpad,"Camera, mic, drivers, and software all worked fine. The clip will not hold properly on the rather wide edge of the Thinkpad T-series laptop. This caused the unit to constantly slip around and fall off. This is somewhat surprising from Logitech considering popularity of T-series laptops. Logitech Support acknowledged repeated emails but did not offer any solution or resolution."
+6274,2,Take it from an expert. Blink's Back and Better Then Ever!!,"First off, music fan from PA is a tampon. If you'll notice the people who gave Blink an excellent rating all play an instrument. So in keeping with this trend, I am a lead guitarist and vocalist. I admit that when I first spun my new blink tracks, the urge of frustration washed over me as I pined for a song resembling that of the previously existing album. Further, I found myself editing tracks consisting of some form of promise. Example, the track entitled Asthenia has a 48 sec. prologe of mood music to prepare you for the song. Really, I just think the boys of blink were blazin a J, before they began to play. In any case, I have little patience. After the additional editing this album is one of the best ever by anyone. I assure you that I know them all by heart and they are always a crowd favorite to cover in between my originals. If you don't love this cd you don't know punk."
+6275,1,Really slow and limited to a tale of an internet predator.,"Painfully slow story. Good actors but, this is a difficult movie to watch unless you have nothing else to do and nothing else to watch.Hard to believe that there is anyone alive today who doesn't already know the story. From the time the teenager first goes on the internet, one immediately knows the rest of the movie.Perhaps this movie should be shown to pre-teeners at an educational or after-school program but, this is not a suspensful or rewarding movie to watch.Only skilled acting brings a one-star movie up to a two star."
+6276,2,face on the milk carton,This was an intersesting book. It was about a girl named janie. One day she saw herself on the milk carton at lunch one day during school and she did some research to try to find out if she had been missing andshe was in the attic looking at stuff marked h and she looked in it and there was a purple dress and it was the one she was wearing in the picture of her on the milk carton.she found out that her real mom went to a cult and she left her with her grandparents and she found out and kept loving everyone.
+6277,2,Please People!,"Everyone please understand - this IS NOT a documentary, nor does it purport to be history. It's entertainment for gosh sakes so lighten up and just enjoy it for what it is!"
+6278,2,Excellent!!!,"Martyr's Mirror is an excellent history of more than 4,000 martyrs, spanning from the time of Christ through the mid- 17th century. The governments, churches, and doctrines of the Anabaptists, the Protestants, and the Catholics are explained through dialogues and commentary. This inspirational compilation not only contains accounts of actual martyrdom, but also letters from the martyrs as well as background information on the era and location. Contrary to Foxe's Book of Martyrs, Martyr's Mirror does not include acts of willful suicide as martyrdom. To see how the Holy Spirit can give Christians strength to ""not love their lives so much as to shrink from death,"" read it for yourself!"
+6279,2,Replaced the old Maglight,"My husband loved his old Maglite but unfortunately, it got stolen. After I found this on Amazon and at a great price I decided to buy it as a gift to husband. I surprised him and he totally loved it....he loved the fact that this new MagLite is a LED flashlight. He won't change it for anything else."
+6280,2,Awesome movie.,This movie is an awesome classic. Clint Eastwood is the best!!! Can't go wrong with clint Eastwood. The action is great and there are several appearances made by guns and roses.
+6281,1,Disappointment,"I am deeply disappointed by the so-called Beatles Anthology since all three CDs contain just a couple of originally recorded songs which is not mentioned in the advertisement. I consider this a certain breach of trust at least as far as my personal relationship with Amazon is concerned. I will return the CDs.--Wolfgang Seibel, Zumsteinstr. 11, 78464 Konstanz, Germany"
+6282,1,unexpected size for reg size/large dogs,"I had ordered this expecting a slightly bigger toy considering it was a ""x-large"" toy. This toy is great for small dogs like poodles or something like that, but this was too small for my dog (average size mixed/mutt dog) and the head lasted one day before that was gone. Very disappointed considering I have alot of good to say about nylabone products. Hope to see a better/bigger dinosaur toy soon."
+6283,2,Shades of Josephine Tey.,"This series is a wonderful series, and Morse is his usual irascible and brilliant self in this book. The only reason that I couldn't give it a 5 instead of a 4 is because the book is just not as good as Josephine Tey's ""Daughter of Time"". It's good, and the puzzle is a difficult, but appealing one, but it just doesn't come up to the standard of the earlier work. In this book Morse is in hospital with some sort of stomach problem, and he comes upon a little book written by a fellow patient about a murder on the Oxford Canal in 1859. Morse gets Lewis and a helpful librarian to do his legwork for him, and he comes to the conclusion that the two riverboat men charged with the murder of Joanna Donovan were innocent. Morse delves further into the past, and manages to figure out what happened on that fateful night 100 odd years ago. This is a really wonderful series. Dexter is an awesome writer!"
+6284,1,Don't pay this much!!!!!,This item is available at Wal-mart for $29.00!!!! It is the exact same toy. BEWARE!!!!
+6285,1,Motocross Rider costume,Very disappointed in the quality for the price. Cheaply made. Face mask and shin guards made out of brittle plastic.
+6286,1,"A great film? Uh, no.","I can't believe this film got any kind of critical acclaim. The dialogue is ridiculous, things such as the soundtrack musical choices during parts of the film are bizarre and the acting is not exactly DeNiro-ish."
+6287,1,Brutally Bad,"This movie was brutally bad. The dialog couldn't have been worse...didn't give the characters much to work with. Please, rent before you buy this stinker."
+6288,1,cute but very cheap and flimsy!,"this lunchbox looks better on the website than in reality. Its alot smaller than I thought it would be, and it is VERY cheap and flimsy. There is no way this can last more than ONE semester of school - and that's with a kid being extra careful with it!! I thought there would at least be a strap inside to hold the drink bottle at the top of the lunchbox. There is no strap so needless to say my 5 y-o would have a hard time putting his containers and water bottle back in after he has finished eating. I dont think I will give him this for school, he'll just use it at home for a toy treasure chest. bummer!"
+6289,2,Very informative,"This book describes the terrible events, witnessed firsthand by a doctor who did whatever to survive. I couldn't imagine the horror this man went through to survive. If you want to know the sick truth on what the Nazis did to the Jews, this book definitely describes it for you!"
+6290,1,UGH.,"Shooter is a no talent hack trying to get big off his Daddy's name. There is no comparison between him and Waylon, becasue Mr. Waylon Jennings was a true country hero with heart. PLEASE don't waste your time on this album if you are looking for a new country outlaw. All of these songs are polished pieces of Nashville garbage. Check out Hank III for some real new school outlaw country...I hear the new album comin out this month is gonna tear lil Shooter + all the shiny happy Nashvillians a new one! I would have given this album NO STARS if there was an option to do so."
+6291,1,Shirley MacLaine's Best Movie?,This is one of the worst movies I have ever seen. The characters are unlikeable except for Charity's two friends. The songs are far too long and I had to fast forward through most of them because they were so dull. I was especially disappointed with Big Spender because I love the song and expected a spectacular dance number from Bob Fosse and all they did was stand there draped over the bar. The only redeeming factor was that Sammy Davis Jr. was in it. He's awesome even though the song was fairly stupid. This was my first Shirley MacLaine film and on the back it said that Sweet Charity was her best movie. I have no desire to see her other movies then.
+6292,2,Wooden Teeth and Jelly Beans-- the greatest president book,"Okay, so I'm kind of young but hey! I can still review a great book. Wooden teeth and Jelly beans is a book about presidents- but not the ordinary kind. It gives great facts in a fun and colorful way. I enjoyed reading it and kept on reading it over and over. I reccommend this book for anyone that can read or is in the ages of 7 to 777 years old. I especially loved the pictures that are like really good charicatures of all the presidents from Washington to Clinton. I really hope you pick up this book because this book is the best example I have seen of an educational book that can be fun!"
+6293,1,Learn from History or you're doomed to relive it,"I've waited for new material from Chris Isaak since 98 and what a disappointment this disk is. There is nothing new here, just take cuts from his previous disks and change the words and you've got ""Always Got Tonight"". Not sure why it took him so long to produce this disk but with four years to create something new and the variety of music he plays on his Showtime series he shouldn't be reliving past glories. Been there, heard it already."
+6294,2,Does the job,"We had ice damming, with water leaking into the house, and this worked great to fix the problem. It can be a bit tricky to maneuver on a two story house, but it gets the job done. I recommend buying the extenstion pole for this if you have a tall two story house. You will need it."
+6295,2,Station Wagon,"I am a HUGE Sara Groves fan. I do enjoy this CD, however, this is probably my least favorite-of all of them that I own (I think I have them ALL). The song containing the lyrics ""Let our weakness become our strength"" is my favorite on the disc."
+6296,1,Wait for the real thing,Well... One more for the crowd. No point in buying this one when eventualy they release the extended editions. The way it should have been.What... Pay some money now to get a 66% of a trilogy? No thanks. I'll wait.
+6297,2,INSPIRATIONAL,"I love the single, Spend My Life. But the version I am in awe with is, his duet with Terry Dexter. I have been trying for days to find it and I can't. I love this single, it makes me give thanks to the Lord for blessing me with my mate. I have recommended this to a friend as a wedding song and will use it for my own some day. Viva - Long Island, NY"
+6298,1,Falls off too easily,"Bought this pedometer 3 days ago, and it is going back to the store this evening. It falls off every time I move, and most of the time the fall causes it to break open. As a result, the protective cover no longer sticks."
+6299,1,Awful,"Ok to keep it simple, this is truly, utterly and without competition the worst album i heard for some time. I know that all you head bangers will hate me for this but this really is a perfect example of how a band can be enslaved in a clische and not being able nor wanting to do anything about it. Without to much phylosophy this music is desperetly boring, dull, bereft of any creativity and imagination. It sounds like 9 same songs recorded over and over. Honestly don't go looking for good metal on this cd, any use I see for this cd is to put it underneath my shelf so it would be in balance."
+6300,2,This book is simply one of the best fantasies I've ever read,"It is rather late, and although I should be getting to bed for my health's sake, I must say something about this book...About 2 weeks ago, I finished it's (comparitively) mediocre sequel, and the names of the characters of the Iron Throne STILL evoked emotions in me, even though I finished the book close too a year ago. Now THAT is the indicator of a book that is truly excellent. I commend Mr Hawke for his first book and will always be thankful too him from providing me with such a involving and enjoyable book for the 2 short weeks it took me to gobble the text up.Signed, Paul Knight"
+6301,1,"Nice idea, smells good, but doesn't work.","I used this in combination with all kinds of ""green""-ish eco friendly mosquito solutions in Texas, including dryer sheets tucked in the pocket and lemon eucalyptus spray. The mosquitoes in Deep East Texas were NOT the least bit offended by this product or any other safe, natural method this year. But this year there was a different type of mosquito - with stripes! - than I had seen the previous year. The mosquitoes with stripes seem to be particularly resistant and blood thirsty, and sadly, it definitely takes a poison to knock them down."
+6302,2,Great - easy - edgy read,If you're looking for a funny edgy easy read - this is a great book. It's not very deep and the things you do learn... not sure if you'd want to use or not! But it's a GREAT book. You'll have fun w/it.
+6303,2,"Feel better, not despressed too much.","I am not sure if this product effects my despression, however, I am feeling to be good. Also I can use it as a room light. Even at night or rainy daytime the room is bright with this product."
+6304,1,just slightly disappointed,"This band's awesome ""Breakbeat Science Excercise 6"" is what encouraged me to buy this disc. I love the artwork on the disc itself. However, I live continous DnB mixes, and this had segregated songs. You can tell the duo is trying to branch into new genres, or at least not do just typical DnB. However, since I was in a pure DnB mood with them, I was disappointed. Don't get me wrong: I don't hate this disc. It just wasn't heavenly like J. Magik or ""Safari"" by Bad Company or many Diesel Boy discs. There are some tracks that keep it true to the genre. Those were great."
+6305,2,Good for warm food,Mr. Bento is very useful for food that needs to be kept warm but I'm not so very happy about the food that needs to be kept cold. Overall its great to carry my lunch everywhere and have it stay warm.
+6306,1,Too big,"Blanket was too big in the large size for 21 inch baby at 9 lbs. They have 2 sizes but no chart to figure out which size you need. The velcro tabs are small and she could easily slip out. I'm waiting until the baby is bigger to use it, but we're in the third month and still waiting. Other reviews have said the small was too small, so I'm not sure. Would recommend Miracle Blanket; costs more but is one-size fits all and is adjustable as they grow. Just don't put it in the dryer..."
+6307,2,Outstanding!,"Great movie! It has it all. Suspense, drama, action and intrigue. Keeps you thinking and on the edge of your seat. Very entertaining. Don't understand those who gave negative feedback."
+6308,1,3m command strips,i have always loved command strips use them for everything and everywhere so i thought i would step it up in size for more of the bigger things i have i ordered 5 boxes of the strips so i got 20 strips and 4 hooks all togeather out of all the strips 1 yes i said 1 has worked its says max 7lbs well let me tell you i put it on a 5oz speaker to just hold it on the wall so it would not slide off of my stand and it will not even hold that im very upset and will not order them again.
+6309,1,Ego Trip,"This book could have been a whole lot better if Mr. Douglas could have gotten over his enormous ego. I don't mean to undermind his fine work over the years or his dedication, but he wasted half the book patting himself on the back. I think he needs to get over himself and realize that he isn't the only one who solved these cases. It took a whole lot of hard working people and not just one loan FBI agent."
+6310,2,"Nice, but not narrow at the toe box","I had a pair of these great loafers years ago. The pair i received recently did not fit like the last ones, sadly."
+6311,1,unit will leak,Ive owned this product in silver for almost a year right after you replace the filter for the first or 2nd time it will start to leak and spray water. apparently this is a frequent problem. only wish i had googled it before i bought it. I'm now stuck with 2 unused and 1 1/2 used filter and no unit to use it in. company dose not honor any warranty!

None of them are Welsh and his views and cult are entirely rejected by all Welsh people. In fact this group has no members at all in Wales and does not represent and genuine tradition at all. The author, whose real name is Bill Wheeler, has never visited Wales in his life and the character Taliesin Einon Vawr is simply a figment of his imagination.His writings are such a drag - they do nothing but say how wonderful he is.Don't buy this book if you want to learn anything about Wales.

+6314,1,SanDisk Sansa c250 2 GB MP3 Player (Black) (Purchased 2008-06),"When I received it, I could not turn it on, so I checked the user menu and fialed to find out how to trouble-shoot. After spent a couple of hours, I decided to quit."
+6315,2,Excellent guide in all respects,"Fodor's has done a wonderful job with Cuba. In particular, the author, Mawer, is a terrific writer and his lucid, precise language is a treat after reading the much touted ""Cuba Handbook,"" which I found far too wordy and unorganized. While others say that ""Cuba Handbook"" has an essential guide to Cuban politics and history, I say that Mawer does the same thing but with prose that is far more readable and intriguing. His opinion of the politics is very much what I experienced -- a mixture of both good and the bad. I agree with all of his recommendations and touts. While I visited more attractions than he describes in the book, I concur with Mawer's decisions on what is worthwile (i.e., many of the attractions that I read about in other books and visited were not worth my attention)."
+6316,2,quick point re: ending,"I've read somewhere that the reason the endings are different in the book and the film is delibrate...the film people are trying to keep the ending secret, and knowing the book will be released before the film, they decided to have a different ending for the book."
+6317,2,Nice for little ones,My daughter liked pulling out all of the surprises inside the elephant. Not very educational but fun and very durable.
+6318,2,My Son Loved This,"My son (age ten and then eleven) loved this, and went all the way through it. Lots of fun, typical Mario-type, but racing only."
+6319,1,Don't buy if you are regular,"I have to agree with the other reviewers that say not to buy this product if you are regular. I used to ovulate regularly, but I have a short luteal cycle so I thought this product could help me. After taking Fertilaid my cycle became very irregular. I started ovulating very late in the cycle and my luteal cycle got even shorter. I took Fertilaid for 4 months and my cycles were all over the place. As soon as I stopped, my cycle went back to normal and two months after I stopped taking Fertilaid, I got pregnant, despite the fact my luteal cycle is only 8 days. So if you are regular do not buy this product. It was a big waste of my money and time."
+6320,1,lame toy-not fun at all,"after seeing numerous commercials my 2 1/2 year old asked for this toy which she got as a present - she loves playing with the care bear figures but don't waste your money on this toy -its not even that its not worth the money, it just isn't fun - the castle tops fall off, the care bears don't stay on the little pegs, the sound effects are totally lame, the swing falls off, there's really no room on it to play - my daughter was sooo excited when she unwrapped this gift but has had no interest in it since as she's discovered all its faultswe do have wish bear's little house which is a little better - it has a couple chairs to sit in, a little stove, a little fridge - still not great but better built, more fun and more worth the money"
+6321,1,"good ""latino music""","I bought this for myself, but ended up giving it to my Venezuelan-born girlfriend. It's all in spanish and I don't speak. My fault. Music is good, but the language turned me off.Angela (my girl) likes it!"
+6322,1,2.5 Years in and the problems start,"I have enjoyed this tv very much for the past couple years. The picture was very good, it interfaced with all my devices very quickly and easily. The sound wasn't the greatest, but acceptable for a set of tv speakers. The big problem is that the ir sensor on the front started becoming 'blind' last week. Meaning that the remote has to be within 12 inches of the tv in order for it to work."
+6323,1,"""House Atreides"" is ""Dune Lite""","While I didn't expect this book to be on a par with Frank Herbert, I wasn't prepared for how spectacularly ordinary it is. The most missed element is Herbert's didactic, multi-layered prose style. Herbert had a way of saying more by implication than by actual description. ""House Atreides"" is just plain bland by comparison. Some of the descriptive metaphors wouldn't be worthy of a freshman creative writing student (the bull falling over like a spaceship, for instance). Most of the characters and situations are described or implied in other Dune works. In most cases, they are not better served by being fleshed out. Ix, for example, is a much more provactive and interesting place because it was never explicitly described in the other Dune books; the reader is left to imagine and fill in the possibilities. ""Dune"" is a book that most people grow into. ""House Atreides"" is, regretfully, one that you'll have to dumb down for."
+6324,1,Misleading - Main Ingredient is Soy,"I started lactating the other day and I was like WTF guys aren's suppose to lactate....so I checked every food I was eating and came to realize that the main ingredient of this protein bar is SOY protein. Oh gee, thanks Amazon for not disclosing that and thanks PureFit for not advertising that as well....if Soy was good for you then wouldn't they want you to know there' Soy in there?"
+6325,2,Review of Model-assisted Survey sampling,"A great reference for survey sampling results. Derivations are mathematically rigorous and not for the faint of heart! I would not suggest this book for beginning grad students, as it is lacking somewhat in readability."
+6326,1,ROFL,"This movie was hillarious. Many parts of it were like watching Monty Python and the Holy Grail. The part where Nephi(sp?) ""conceals"" himself from the servant as Laban was priceless, and then when he ""shocks"" his brothers, My wife and I were rolling on the floor laughing. People really believe this stuff? ROFL!!!"
+6327,1,cordless right angle drill,I purchased the drill and only used it a couple of time-4-5 and the chuck broke. I have recently had a corded impact wrench and an XRP drill go out. Much poorer quality than my previous buys. Have started moving towards Hatichi.
+6328,2,The Dahl Family Album,"I enjoyed reading The Dahl Family Album, and looking at the pictures. Although most of these vacations took place well before my time, I enjoyed the comments of my ""older"" cousins about our dearly departed Aunt Bertha. She was a real ""gem"", and I'm glad her memory was preserved in this book. Also, may we never forget the time my mother-Karla Drexler and her sister, Virginia Clark, and her husband Emory Clark had food poisoning. How often has my mom recalled that she was ""sick as a dog"" on that trip! Fond memories for those who experience sickness on vacation!"
+6329,1,Somebody get Bibio some proper equipment,"Bibio's guitar playing is adequate, but any listening pleasure one might derive from that is ruined by the extremly bad recording quality. In this day and age of cheap digital recording equipment it's unbelievable that somebody produces a *whole album* that sounds as if it has been registered on a dictaphone with a worn-out tape. Sure, it's a fun sound effect, if used sparingly and with a certain purpose in mind. Track after track of guitar noodlings with scratchy highs and missing lows really starts to grate on both my ear drums and my musical sensibility though.Maybe I am just not ""avant garde"" enough to get the subtlety of Bibio's approach. I rather suspect though that Bibio's is having a major laugh that people actually take his pseudo-folky recorded-in-one-day stuff seriously."
+6330,2,One of my favorites!,"Not only is ""Makin' Up With You"" one of my favorite Chalee Tennison songs, but it's also one of my favorite songs of all time! Her powerful voice shines through on this upbeat, sassy tune that will have you clapping your hands and tapping your feet. The bold instrumentation fits perfectly with the playful lyrics without drowning out Chalee's voice. Just another example of Chalee Tennison's awesome talent."
+6331,1,Made In China,"Not sure why this wasn't mentioned in any reviews.I thought I was getting an American made Werner ladder like all the others I own,not true. I also agree with other reviewers; too heavy and awkward to position and the height adjustment mechanisms seem cheap, flimsy and doubtful to last. Not sure if I feel comfortable ascending 26 feet off the surface of the earth on any contraption made in China. Disappointed in Werner."
+6332,2,Not the tourist view of Bellows Falls!,"I've said this before but it's worth repeating: Mayor is a fine writer and I've enjoyed all his books from the first to the latest. If you like police mysteries you'll find he is a craftsman of the first order. If you just like a good story and a well crafted plot, you can't go wrong with Archer. But be advised: The first of his books you read won't be the last!"
+6333,2,Great movie with excellent acting,"This movie was great! I enjoyed it very much. The first time I watched it the part in the court room disturbed me greatly, (Were Tom Hanks falls out), but after watching it several more times I have concluded that the movie was written and acted superly. It makes you think what would I do? If you were his Mother, Father, Brother, Sister, or even his Lawyer. I would be like Washington at first and not want to touch him at all. I especially liked the part where he is first in Washington's office and has just told Washington that he has AIDS and then lays his hat on the desk. Washington just sits and stares at the hat as to say, I'm going to have to get some Lysol sprayed there when he leaves. Exactly what I would do."
+6334,1,Physiology Demystified,"I ordered this book on Feb 3, 2009. Up to March 7, I have not received this book. I believe your order or shipping system need improve."
+6335,1,Whoa!,"Lev has committed the literary equivilent of changing horses in the middle of a stream. What started out as a mystery series has evolved out of that gendre. In fact, this latest installment is described on the jacket,as a ""Nick Hoffman Novel"", whereas, the others were described as mysteries. Doesn't Lev feel an obligation to those who have followed Nick (and Stefhan)in their sleuthing? Doesn't he realize that there are hard-core mystery buffs, like me, who only want to read mysteries? By abandoning the mystery format, he leaves me no other choice but to turn to other series that are content to remain true to the category. I think that the series is in trouble unless Lev returns to its roots."
+6336,1,I guess I am the only one who hated this movie.,"I love animation in all it glory, but this is a horrible movie. It was anti-American, it was disgusting and I found myself sitting through the whole movie waiting for it to start and get the plot going. When it was over, I was left wondering what happen here. I went with my mother and my gramma and my 16 year old brother. We all love movies and many different kinds of movies. We are the ones who go to the sleeper hits first, we are the ones who go see the independent films,so, we consider ourselves educated movie goers. We all hated this movie. We all looked at each other through out the movie wondering if this was supposed to be funny and entertaining? The only thing about this movie that we enjoyed was the song, because it is very catchy. I do not recomend this movie to anyone, especially the general American public. It is boring and disgusting and waste of time."
+6337,1,Paper format wrong choice,"I heartily agree with all those who were taken aback by all the posh hotels included while cultural and recreational events and sites were not included.Gotta say, though, that it's the paperback format that really detracts from this book. It's too darn heavy to be so small! By page 35, my wrists were exhausted! And, what was the publisher thinking by using such small margins. It was so tightly bound that I frequently had to ""split"" it open - and the margin around the edges where the user holds the book - well - I spent more time shifting my fingers so they wouldn't cover the text than I did reading.Finally, there should be a all inclusive checklist that the reader can mark those places he/she has visited.Would not purchase this unless you've got REALLY strong arms."
+6338,1,Black students. Middle class teachers. Unsupported claims.,"As a high school teacher and university instructor in the education field, I have had a variety of experiences to help inform my teaching and my work in helping others become more effective educators. Possessing a desire to instill multicultural and multiracial appreciation within the teachers I work with, I thought Kunjufu's book would bring forth ideas to better prepare teachers to work with non-white students. I was apprehensive at first after reading the back cover and skimming the first chapter. After two chapters I had learned nothing and was very disappointed by the lack of evidence provided for the mountain of claims the author makes. The best part of the book is the references page and having been published in 2002, the little data Kunjufu does provide is out-dated and has been done better by other authors."
+6339,2,Family Entertainment at it's Best,"I agree with the other reviews. This is a great family series. I happened across it on PAX before I received my Dish network. I was only able to get poor reception and it was on the weekends so I rarely was able to see it. When I came across the DVD, I couldn't wait to order it. I then shared it with other family members and they all thoroughly enjoyed it. From the youngest to the oldest, brothers, sisters, cousins, nephews, neices they all wanted to get the DVD and are begging for more.The only thing that could be better than this DVD is the release of the whole series on DVD. Hurry, the sooner, the better."
+6340,2,Great TV,"I loved the show. It was intelligent, good stories and the main actors were great at their job. Each week was interesting. Unforunately I guess it was not like the majority of TV shows which are boring comedies or cheap sci fi movies with bad actors the channel likes to show. FireFly was also a great show cancelled also. Intelligent TV that makes you think is cancelled. Why because the majority of the people want shows where they don't have to think. How many police dramas or lame comedy shows do we need? I guess enough to fill people's minds for 3 or 4 hours a night. Can't there be one or two good sci fi tv series on TV?"
+6341,1,A major flaw with all these readers,"I like to write in the margine. It would be nice to type in the margin. Even better, to access all my notes from a menu."
+6342,2,Help a young read learn a passion to read as an adult,I read this years ago as a young adult transitioning from youth literature to adult literature. The autobiography style and engaging content ignited in me a passion for reading and history.
+6343,1,Lame Romeo.,"Johnny Rotten is rolling in his grave! Adam Nordmeyer is best known for his synth lines in the Fall Out Boy-esque band Crash Romeo. But did you also know that he switches styles very often? First he was a ska kid, then overnight he was a straight-edge hardcore boy, now hes a pop rocker! After he was mocked out of several bands he joined crash romeo. Luckily his parents are very rich and bail him out of any trouble he gets into, otherwise he couldnt provide for himself. He has long sideburns and a chubby pouch just above his beltline both of which help his stage presence. My band EPOCH SOLUTION came very close to sharing the trustkill label with them, but we turned them down because we are way too talented for idiots like the ones at trustkill.-Chris Buch"
+6344,2,Targus mini-mouse optical USB hookup to laptop,"Size ok; hookup ok -- think I'll switch to bluetooth, no cord; have to have just the right surface for the mouse to work properly."
+6345,1,It all went downhill from here,"This is where you see how this new so called director lost everything that appealed to the dark knight, making it a complete joke and disapointment for the fans and for the ppl who loved the first two series. It's no worse than 'Batman & Robin' (Yet again what is?) but it's still not something to watch, worst own or rent. Altho Val Kilmer still tried keeping its cool like Keaton, the original Batman, it doesn't mean it's average. Indeed it has a great cast like all Batman movies but literally it's junk. Do not get this, it will make the direcotr feel like he did a decent job which he obviously didn't. Besides this, stay away from 'Batman & Robin' please!Thank you."
+6346,2,Close your eyes and let it carry you away...,"If you liked the African-flavored tracks on the soundtrack to Disney's ""The Lion King"", you will love this album. Not being an expert, I don't know whether or not this is ""authentic"" African music, but I can tell you that it is some of the most emotionally stirring music I've heard. The rhythms and harmonies totally sweep you away. I've tried to use this CD as background music to study by, and it doesn't work because I just have to sit back and lose myself in the music; needless to say, my work never got done until I turned it off and put in something a little bit less involved. This is definitely a purchase that you won't regret."
+6347,2,"Without Fail (Jack Reacher, No. 6)",Lee Child's Reacher is a great character for those that like suspense and action. Can't wait for the movie versions of Reacher. Better than Bond. Doesn't require all the gadgets to overcome the bad guys.Hard to put these books down.
+6348,1,Average text and an awful CD,"In this kind of product, expectations are mostly on the software that is supposed to simulate exam environment. I am really displeased at the quality of this most amateurish work. The dial reading never worked, and the questions of the math test are mostly based on miles to kilometers and vice versa conversions which are (according to the author) not included in the exam scheme! Do try harder please!"
+6349,2,great product,"this is a great product to use for a stocking-stuffer. It is cheap, but worth a lot more - thanks to amazon.com! if you are considering to buy this product, don't question yourself any more!"
+6350,1,Do not waste your money,"I bought the PUR 2-Stage Vertical White Faucet Mount FM-3333B about 2 months ago. It was easy to install and worked right away. However, that didn't last long. The amount of water coming out of the filtered side slowed down quite rapidly. Barely two months after installing it, there is hardly any water coming out. The filter has an indicator that is supposed to flash green when the filter cartridge is good, and changes color to orange or red when it's time to change it. Mine didn't even get to that point and it stopped working. I never ran hot water through the filter which is a warning that came in the instructions. This is just very poorly constructed. This product was cheap, and worked cheaply. Don't waste your money. Make some more research and instead, buy a quality product that will work."
+6351,1,Useless stuff from people who can't spell.,"I gave Quick Steel a try on my muffler. On the left side, a muffler hanger has rusted loose. On the other side, the inlet pipe has separated from the muffler.I sanded the rust away and I did a good job. I mixed the Quick Steel in small amounts. It set up hard and the repair looked fine. But, the very next day, while driving around the patches failed and my muffler is swinging in the breeze again.What a waste! It says right on the package that Quick Steel is supposed to work up to 500 degrees Fahrenheit and it's supposed to work on mufflers. They're wrong about that. It didn't even last one day. In this case, quick means quick to fail.I've decided if the folks who make something aren't bright enough to spell a simple word such as quick properly, they're not bright enough to understand materials science or chemistry."
+6352,1,Do not buy this desecration,"Buy the original Foot Book (one that is not a ""wacky book of opposits""), not one that was modified to make it a board book and more ""educational"" than the original. The original Foot Book was wonderfully poetic, and was only tangenitally about opposites. But ""trick feet, sick feet"" is a much better bit of text in the original than ""well feet, sick feet"" in the original. Children are not stupid, and that the board book has effectively been dumbed down is another reason not to buy this edition."
+6353,1,Tough to listen to.,"This album really dissapointed me. After the first half hour the music warms out it's welcome. As a big fan of both ambient and jungle, I hate to say it, but after listening my reactions were either annoyed or bored. While this epic tries to be the ""2001"" of electronica, it ends more like ""Xanadu""."
+6354,2,Guilty pleasure,"I would like to believe that this film is a knowing commentary on the frustration and impotence Americans feel because of high crime rates and how this can lead us to accept infringements on our civil rights just so long as those who do the infringing promise to produce results--all we need is a benevolent facist to take care of us and we'll be alright. Unfortunately, I can't quite make myself believe it. This film is a revenge fantasy that plays on our basest instincts--fear and anger. However, it does so so skillfully that I can't help but be caught up in it. The sequels were all garbage."
+6355,1,Apple screws me for first and last time,"Well, I got the laptop on time from Amazon. Good job by them.Ok, now to Apple. It's not even 1 month after I bought the thing and they upgraded it. That's lousy. I heard that upgrading a computer and selling it for the same price without warning is a constant ""feature"" of Macintosh computers. But..less than a month of use and already there is a memory, wireless, and video upgrade? That just plain sucks. How about charging more for more? Hello-If you like losing customers...Just keep up your current practices. I changed my mind from buying a PC for this Mac ...but I'll never do that again. Back to PC's for me. Great policy Apple!!"
+6356,1,"Just like ""Who Moved My Cheese"" - Simplistic/Fairy Tale","Choose your attitude, Play, Make their day and be present.There I saved you the 2 hours it takes to read this book."
+6357,1,Maybe the gov't can cover up this book,"I have always been intrigued by the stories of Roswell and look forward to reading interesting and new information on the subject. This book does not meet any minumum standard of interest. The best word to describe this book is repetetive. I lost count how many times the book quotes Mac Brazel as saying ""You know how they talk of little green men?... They weren't green."" The book was a very tiresome read and for an interesting subject, never got me interested. The time line is maybe the best thing in this book. In the center has black and white photos that don't mean much or add anything. A photo of a man in profile is captioned ""Don Schmitt listens as one of the witnesses relates her story of the recovery."" WHO CARES?"
+6358,2,Good compilation but suffered by bad editing,"This is a very good compilation but what's keeping me from giving it 5 stars is that they edit out parts from a few songs like Bad Company's Feel Like Makin' Love, Cheap Trick: The Flame and Alan Parsons Project: Eye in the Sky but if you like classic rock music then you'll like this CD."
+6359,2,still going strong,I liked this season as much as the two earlier ones. It is fun to watch the new twists on the Merlin legend.The only weak episode (for me that is) is the goblin episode. But again it is unrealistic to expect all episodes to be perfect.
+6360,1,Heaven Can Wait,"This is by the far the worst product I have ever purchased from Amazon. It looks like it was done by some young kid with a video recorder. I certainly didn't pay to watch individuals I have never heard of talking about Bon Jovi, a young lady driving in her car smoking a cigarette (which the camera was on), talking about the band. It has almost nothing to do with Bon Jovi itself, in addition to the quality being awful.It stunk!!!!"
+6361,2,love it,"This is a great book for beginning piano players. I use it with my students that range from age 6-12, and get great results. I'm amazed at how quickly they are learning."
+6362,2,"Rocky start, but good tower","I ordered this computer, and called the seller to purchase expedited shipping. I had to buy a new monitor too, but bought it locally. It didn't come with Microsoft Office, but for the price, you can't really complain too much about that. After about a week, the settings got messed up somehow, and I had to call Geek Squad to help me get everything working again. All in all, I feel like this is a good computer."
+6363,1,The Best Ending Ever!,"The only notable quality of this whole novella was the excellent, captivating and gripping ending. The rest of the book was simple, predictable and frustrating. I gave it a star for the ending alone. Just read the last 4 pages and all will be clear!"
+6364,1,At Risk,"We had to read this book in my language arts class, and frankly I was very dissapointed. The book sounded like it was going to have a very good story line. The book was unexciting and not particularly well written, and I am usually used to strong books, as I read plenty of adult books as well. Even I say this, along with many others, in saying this book was a little too strong to be classified as a children's book. I think the swearing gets tiring after a while, and I do not like the characters in the book very much, except for the protagonist Amanda. Polly is quite annoying!!!!!"
+6365,1,Uninspired tedium,"McCullough has appropriated other people's material, ""choralized"" it, and appears to be attempting to capitalize on a wave of political correctness to buy himself a Grammy nomination. There are a few nice tunes scattered throughout this tedious piece, but overall the interpretation is lifeless, unimaginative, and uninspired, almost clinical. Here's hoping that victims of the Shoah can find a more suitable expression of their music than McCullough has tried to give them. They deserve better than this."
+6366,1,wish i could give it less than 1 star. i would give it a negative infinity,"i have no idea what posessed disney to produce this monstrocity but it is just terrible. thank god they didnt make a TV show. i couldnt get past the first five minutes before the poor saturday morning cartoon animation and terribly annoying voices got to me. milo's voice sounds disgustingly nasaly compared to the original, and it is an overall abomination of a film. in the original i really enjoyed the deep history, and almost spiritual feel to the city and the people, and the animation made everything look simply amazing. in this one, i really think king of the hill has better vivid animation. i wish this did not have any association to the original because it is simply terrible. i cant stress it enough!!! it makes me angry that disney ruined such an amazing film!!!!"
+6367,1,Complete and utter waste.,The TOS era was constantly changing in the 3 seasons and never solid. This manual shows that with its horrible pictures and non sensical babble.Get the TNG and DS9 manuals.
+6368,2,"Fun, but doesn't ""rinse"" off","Great toy, but doesn't just rinse off with water. It leaves a tint/hue to my bathtub and walls that comes off easily with a basic shower cleaner. Not a huge deal, but DOES require more cleaning effort that one would think."
+6369,1,Not up to Arrow Standards,When chosing this tool I did so contrary to other reviews. I have used Arrow staplers for over 30 years and they have always been very good. The ETFX 50 was the highest priced. I expected more. To the nuts and bolts. The tool is cheaply made and tinny. It jambs regularly. About two jambs per 1 stick of staples. You will need to keep a pair of vice grip pliers available to pull the jambed staples out of the machine. The tool does not drive the staples flush. The Stanley TRE 550 is just as good at a lot less money.
+6370,1,Not a good read,"If you liked the first in this trilogy ""Cape Refuge"" you will like this one also. It's more of the same. I read on hoping things would improve, but this is not a good mystery. It would be good for Christian fiction readers though."
+6371,2,Excellent all the way around,"The Sennheiser PC155 Traditional Binaural PC Headset has been an excellent purchase. I use these headphones for making Skype calls, listening to music, noise control on airplanes during travel, and for making software training videos. In every aspect, these headphones perform. The optional usb hookup works great in both desktops and laptops. The sound is clear and crisp, as is the recording when speaking into the mike. My only issue with these, is the volume control. It doesn't allow you to take the volume too high. This is probably done on purpose for safety concerns. But I think a few extra decibels would have sufficed. Otherwise, these are an all around great performing headset and well worth the money compared to other less expensive headsets found at the electronics stores."
+6372,2,Enjoyable story,"This book was very good! I liked the story and the characters. However, I think the epilogue should have been a little longer with more details about what happened to these characters."
+6373,1,NOT ALL THAT!!,"I listen to this album and was unimpressed. It was filled with sickening ballads that made you just want to hurl! Don't get me wrong, i liked ""my heart will go on"" which was obviously a hit because of the movie ""titanic"". I like celine but, i was not happy with this one. Maybe next time!"
+6374,2,Great value and quality,"This blade is the perfect mix of quality and value for me. I had it on my saw for months. I ripped and crosscut hundreds of board feet of hardwoods before it got dull. No worries as the tooth thickness is good enough for at least 2 more sharpenings. I picked up a second LU86 to use when I send the first one in for sharpening.This is blade you can leave on your saw for 99% of the time if you want. I have a Forrest Woodworker II 30T, which is a super blade but is is 50% better for 50% more cost? Probably not.For most of us, this blade will fit the bill."
+6375,1,"Looks great, But Take it back!","I bought the MRV640 DVD Recorder. It has all the jacks and formats one would desire on the recorder. The first night out of the box, the message ""BLOCKED"" was displayed right after the disk stopped playing. You can't restart the unit by recycling power or get the disk out. BTW, the booklet indicates there is a problem but no way for the consumer to fix it. I took it back to Best Buy and got another unit. That one lasted a month - same problem. The service was very kind and asked if I would like another. No thanks, So I bought a Panasonic.If Philips/Magnavox knows there is a ""BLOCKED"" problem, then get it fixed before the unit is ready for the public. There is nothing blocking the cd drawer, so this is a quality control problem not a user issue.Don't waste you time, choose another brand."
+6376,1,Don't purchase this DVD,"My children have the other 2 dvds of ""Thou Shalt Laugh"" and have found them very humorous. My husband and I had also enjoyed the first 2. I purchased this third edition for my children for Christmas. They had not yet opened it, so my husband and I watched it last night. I cannot express the anguish I felt as not just one but most all of the artists had too many comments to count that were unacceptable. Most all referred to ""sex"", and some mentioned it outright. Natural conception and invitro-fertilization were explained. Had my children been watching this with us, we would have had questions every few minutes about what they were talking about. My children have been raised very conservative and are naive to many worldly matters. For this, I am thankful. If you're looking for comedy consistent with the first 2 ""Thou Shalt Laugh"" dvds, forget this one - it's not worth watching. My children will only be allowed to watch Taylor Mason from this DVD."
+6377,1,Not what I expected,"This item is called ""extra thick"" and described as ""deluxe,"" but upon receiving it, I realized that it was anything but. I've never used a yoga mat that is so thin. I expected a very thick mat that would be comfortable to do several abdominal exercises on, but instead I received an item that looks like it was cookie-cut out of a large piece of material. Certainly not what I expected or wanted. I fold it in half to make it close to what I expected."
+6378,1,Lost Fur,"I used this on my 3 animals. 2 dogs and my cat. They all lost some fur,I have used it in the past and it was great. Im guessing they went messing with a good thing. Whatever they did, It didn't agree with my animals at all. It makes me sad to see there suffering."
+6379,1,Re-hash of the manual,"This book is simply a repeat of the manual that comes with the game. Most strategy guides at least offer game-specific tips on how to play; this one doesn't even go that far. In fact, in the section entitled ""Aerial Combat Tactics,"" the manual that comes with the game is much, much more complete. Only buy this book if you need to - as I had (my two year old destroyed my manual)."
+6380,2,Decent soap,"I bought this on a whim to try. I took a gamble last year and started using DE safety razors to shave, and was astounded by how much better my face feels, how much money I saved, and how much more relaxing it is. I wanted to try the soap to see if I could find a similar experience.First off, straight out of the UPS package the smell is a little jolting. It smells like a smoldering fire pit, the morning after a bonfire. A very concentrated version of that. It lathers well, and did a decent job of washing, but it left a sticky soap film on my skin. I will probably give it another try or two to make sure I won't change my mind. (I try to do this with anything new I try like this.)If you are interested in it. Give it a try. It is fairly in-expensive, and worth the experience of trying something new, if nothing else."
+6381,1,I rather get 50 lashes than to read this book..,"DREADFUL! It's boring, it drags, it's boring, it's a waste of money...and did I say it was boring? BECAUSE IT IS. It lacked explanation of the characters and why somethings occured..etc. And my book fell apart......there are better Anne Rice books out there...avoid this one. You can do better than this."
+6382,2,ID History,It was really hard for me to find a history reference book for Industrial Design but this one is great! Has lengthy explanations but also quick reference guides to filter through the unnecessary details
+6383,2,Good product,"This is what I want. I have used this product before, and the price is cheaper than other stores that I bought from before"
+6384,2,outstanding,When I heard that Poison was going to do a cd of all covers I was thinking it could be a great idea. I never expected it to be this good. The songs they chose were great and they fit their style in alot of ways. I have seen these guys in concert several times and some of these covers have been performed. Its great seeing them step out and take a chance like this. Absolutely outstanding piece of work...
+6385,2,A truckers guide,Bought this for my son who drives 18 wheelers cross country. He uses it daily and has found it almost indispensable.
+6386,2,My Favorite Sneakers Ever,"I've been wearing this model for years. I love the way they look and feel. And they are incredibly light weight.I can be on my feet all day with no discomfort. I would like to pass on one precaution: the toe is fragile where the sole curls up and is glued to the uppers. If you stub your toe, the sole will likely begin to ""peel"" away In spite of this shortcoming, I continue to buy them because they are so great! Also, I think the sizes may run a little small because I have to order 11 1/2 even though I've never been over 11 in any other shoe."
+6387,1,It's not a book to read,"I purchased this thinking it was a follow up to the novel dragonlance, but it wasn't. I think it's something used for role playing???"
+6388,2,For Those Who Appreciate Real Guitar Picking Talent,"Great Collection! I listen to this over and over. It's relaxing, excellent sound quality. Interesting liner notes. Well Done!"
+6389,1,That's it? A $6 dollar cable and a $14 cable?,"I was very disappointed when I received this to see that it was simply a package of two cables. Cables that you can pick up at Radio Shack for MUCH cheaper. Just ridiculous. The Airport Express itself is fantastic, but skip this accessory and go to your local Radio Shack for the mini-RCA cable, and a quick search online for the optical to mini."
+6390,1,Fed up and disappointed (Again!),"I can't believe I paid this much for a book with so little substance! I used to love the Merry Gentry series and thought that hopefully this series would not become as huge of a disappointment as the Anita Blake one has. I was completely wrong! It sort of had a plot from what I could discern around the sex scenes however, the book was so brief as to almost be pointless. I am done with Laurell Hamilton!"
+6391,1,Pathetic biased guide to covering up one's failures,Sophomoric pleading of control freak doctor who believes that trying to perform is proof enough for protecting doctors from negligence. Incredible lack of accountability and responsibility when tragic errors occur that have lasting consequences for the patient.The stress is from failing to address the difference between what you meant to accomplish and what becomes known as an adverse event.
+6392,2,Works Well,"I really like this product. Unlike other dog/bike leashes it doesn't hang way off the bike, allowing me to easily ride without my dog. It doesn't have a ""safety"" release like the others, but I like that. I'd rather clothesline my dog around a pole - you can stop a bike pretty quickly - then have the release give way and my dog run into traffic.Nala, my border collie, loves going for bike runs. She gets so much better exercise in a fraction of the time of walking. The leash can handle pulls easily. You'll feel them but it won't effect your balance on the bike. I highly recommend the product. The only negative is the lack of instructions. I figured it out pretty quickly, but I shouldn't have to."
+6393,1,Watches International 2001,"I was very disappointed. The major brands are not well represented at all (with few exceptions) and too much space was given to jewelry/fashion watches for which serious collectors are not likely to be that interested. Perhaps comprehensive inclusion of the major companies required their financial participation. If so, they obviously opted out. A slick publication way off the mark. Could be much, much better."
+6394,2,Great Movie,"I was lucky to see this movie on TCM not long ago, and enjoyed every moment of it. I would absolutely love to own it on DVD......sooner rather than later. Fabulous move, and Cary Grant is great in it!!"
+6395,1,Doesn't Hit The Mark,"I have seen quite a few productions of COMPANY including the original on Broadway. Unfortunately, this one doesn't come close to hitting the mark. In fact, it's way off. If the director were trying, once again, to be innovative by imposing his concept for SWEENY TODD onto COMPANY it doesn't work. ANOTHER HUNDRED PEOPLE is perhaps a good example how this fails. Were the singer and the musicians really together? I heard not. It's a tough song and this singer couldn't keep up. Who could be better than Beth Howland anyway (grin). And unless my CD player is failing, a lot of the times the singers sounded quite flat.What surprises me the most is that Sondheim would sanction this. And the weird thing for me is that I enjoyed SWEENY TODD, directed by the same John Doyle."
+6396,1,Lacks Excitement,"I rented this game for a week. It follows the book closer than the movie, but the task and objectives in the game are boring and sometimes tedious."
+6397,1,DO NOT BUY!!!!!!!!!!,"I WISH I WOULD HAVE READ ALL OF THESE REVIEWS BEFORE BUYING. I HAVE HAD TROUBLE FROM DAY ONE. SHOOTS OUT DIRT - PET HAIR [ I HAVE LOTS ] GETS CLOGGED IN THE FILTER. I HAVE TO ""PICK"" OUT THE HAIR ETC FROM THE HOSE - IT NEVER MAKES IT TO THE LITTLE CUP. WHEN EMPTYING THE CUP - DIRT GOES EVERYWHERE. MUST SHOWER AFTER EVERY VACUUMING EXPERIENCE!"
+6398,1,Not a good fit,"I was really excited about these goggles, and was looking forward to cutting onions without tears... I was disappointed when they arrived because they didn't fit my face - I'm petite and probably my face is somewhat smaller? I'm not certain why, but the goggles wouldn't stay close to my face, there was a 1/2 inch space between them and my face which, obviously, defeated their purpose. I was truly sorry I had to return them."
+6399,1,Yuck,Sorry ...hard to get beyond the first few pages of this very pompous author's presentation of his world solutions to everything.
+6400,1,Nice enough except for the lock nuts that drive you nuts instead of locking,"The lock nuts all worked loose in less than an hour forcing me to stop and replace them one by one.It is a shame, as it is mostly a nice looking product, but having it repeatedly fall apart in your hands is frustrating with any product, but especially one you are likely to be using outside in bad weather."
+6401,1,Investigation?,"I picked up this book thinking that I would be reading about recent sightings of UFOs and the ongoing investigations. Unfortunately, that is most certainly not the case. The only recent events talked about are the movie Independence Day and the joint promotion they did with Nevada.Susan Wright has merely collected many well-known people, investigations, theories, and events from the past and mentioned them all here. There are many other books that give this to you, so this one does not help. Also, the narrative seems to skip from point to point without a logical order.If you know absolutely nothing about UFOs, their investigations, and conspiracy theories to cover them up, then you might read this to become familiar with the people and places. Otherwise, I would recommend investing your time elsewhere."
+6402,1,Sony MDR-IF240RK Wireless Headphone System,"I have owned 2 other pair of Sony wireless headphones over the years. I was excited about the size and open air features of these. I was VERY disappointed in the lack of range. My other Sonys allowed me to walk out to get the paper without any appreciable loss of sound. These, however are terrible! You cannot even turn a corner without total loss of sound. I recommend you keep looking!Sony MDR-IF240RK Wireless Headphone System"
+6403,2,Works really well indoors in the SF East Bay!,"Just picked this up. We live in a townhouse near Pt. Richmond, CA. Our hdtv is downstairs and I put this upstairs. The manual is horrible, but the reception came in better than any of the antennas I have experimented with thus far. It did require a diy reflector to pull in maximum stations, but that was easy. Also, some repositioning is occasionally necessary to lock in KGO, but I was able to get it, many do not. I am confident I will find the sweet spot in the house. Yea! No roof climing. Buy this if you can find it cheap."
+6404,2,"A part of our history, A wonderful movie of all times...","The actors cannot ever be replaced from the original movie. I LOVE this movie more than any other movie I have ever seen, I guess because you can really see a lot of the truth in it. When Scarlett says, I'll worry about it tomorrow, thats her way of dealing with the pain of Rhett leaving. To survive this is the way you must think or else you would go insane. So much emotion involved in this movie. There will never be another ""GONE WITH THE WIND""......"
+6405,1,Great idea but not so well done.,"This series features Professor Greenburg's exploration into the world of opera. It would be a great idea, if it weren't for the fact that most of it consists of Professor Greenburg's conjecture. He dwells on Primitive music for far too long than is relevant for Opera. And he is quite the opinionated Professor with his ideas such as ""the composer as dramatist"" not the performer. And so forth. Every so often, he gets into the history and facts that make Opera interesting. But for far too much of time, he simply conjectures and I found myself disagreeing with most of his conjectures. Even though, I'm an admirer of Opera."
+6406,1,a BRUTAL listen!!,"I enjoy ""HUMAN BEHAVIOR"", and after listening to the complete collection, found ""BACHELOETTTE"" to be border line a passable ok.The rest of this is painful to tolerate. Scary bad.I'm sure there are coffee-house types with black rimmed glasses and fashionable hair-dos in London / New York / Warsaw that enjoy this type of stuff, but next to YOKO (oh, nooooo!) this was the worst think i've tryed to listen to since horrific ""TROUT MASK REPLICA"" by CrAPTAIN BEEFHEART.Boy, I'd hate to listen to the stuff that ain't a ""HIT""Ouch!"
+6407,1,"The DVD Stinks, what a WASTE on such a GREAT Movie !","Don't need to add more that others have already said about the feature itself, but the DVD now that's another story.I don't write many reviews, but I felt it my duty to let other buyers know before purchasing this DVD that quality is VERY VERY POOR !!! It's almost unwatchable in my eyes, especially if viewing a LARGE format WS projection system.You were warned, buy it only for the content and not the DVD quality or special features, cuz there isn't any !!!!Signed,Disappointed"
+6408,1,Annoyed,"I wish I had read the review before buying this item, as the playlist shown by Amazon bears no resemblance to the real list of tracks.In Particular the one track I was desperate to get was ""I Will"" by Ruby Winters, was not on the actual CD, I am really disappointed.The only positive was that the CD was delivered within 1 week, and was in good condition."
+6409,2,Very useful!,"This book is for students aiming at a band 5-6, and a good starter (when followed up with other texts) for students needing a higher score.It is a very useful IELTS-related item to purchase because:1) it presents the learner with the 4 IELTS modules (or parts)2) it can help both General and Academic Module students3) it broadens one's vocabulary by setting such activities in 16 every day situations, each of them very likely to be somehow involved in the spoken part of IELTS (hobbies, cooking, traveling, geography, weather, money, studying, fitness, cars, celebrity gossips, reading, nature, buildings, feelings, technical innovation, languages)4) it gives one actual *tips* on what to do and what not to do during the exam!5) it has lots of pictures, so it's very good for visual learners.However, this book might not be good if you are either a very conceptual person, or a very example-based one. Rules aren't described in detail, and examples are but very few."
+6410,2,Trilogy comes to an end,"The trilogy comes to an end with this book and it is quite an ending. Too often the hero slays the dragon and marries the princess but not this ending. Fitz gives his all to help his King complete his mission but in the end he loses his love, not due to death but rather because she's moved on and he can't bring himself to disrupt her happy life even if it is without him. This was a very enjoyable trilogy due to the good storytelling, plots, and believable characters."
+6411,2,Excitement and Fun,"I couldn't put this book down. My favorite of Neville's three, and I've read them all. Some may find it too non-cerebral for their taste, but it just shows she can write anything, including John Grisham style stuff. With romance, no less!"
+6412,2,THEY REALLY WORK!!!!,"I saw versions of these pans on TV and loved the idea but wanted a better quality. Oh My Goodness...they really work wonderfully! I spray two tortilla shells very lightly with butter flavored cooking spray then press into the pans. The next trick is to cut 2 rounds of parchment and lay them in the center of the shell and put pie weights. Bake at 375 for 12 minutes and they are perfect. I fill with ""green leaf"" lettuce, grilled & sliced flank steak, grilled onions, grape tomatoes, grated cheddar cheese and Hidden Valley Farmhouse Originals Southwest Chipotle Dressing. Literally, as good as any resturant.The pans clean up with a very light swipe of warm soapy water and quick rinse. They will last me for years."
+6413,1,Go ahead. Give Yoko your money.,"Another cynical attempt by Yoko Ono, the millionaire, to take your money by recycling yet again Lennon's work. I guess the baby-boomers can afford it, right? Let's face it, John Lennon's post-Beatle solo career was an utter failiure. His five year break in the late seventies was a career move, nothing more and nothing less."
+6414,1,OBVIOUSLY CLIFF BURTON WAS METALLICA,Metallica was never the same without Cliff Burton. What happened?I remember my friend drove up in his car and had just bought this the day of its release.I was in dismay. I was like this is like ACDC. Oh no!It was like the moment when Motley Crue followed up Shout at the Devil with Theater of Pain only they didnt start dressing like girls.That very moment was the end of Metallica for me. They bought into their own hype and did what their label or producer told them to.
+6415,1,A huge disappointment!!,"I paid nearly $100 for this iron less than a year ago and it's already broken. The swivel cord is either loose or broken and I have to wiggle it to get the light to stay red and heat up. Ridiculous. I have heard from several sources that their customer service is deplorable so I won't be wasting my time. Just bought the HSI, hoping for better luck."
+6416,2,History the way it should be written.,"Warren Carroll is a master at his craft. He writes history the way it should be written. His histories are true-to-life: full of heroes and villains engaged in the great struggle of good against evil. You'll find no economic or material determinism here. Carroll states at the outset that he is presenting an unabashedly Catholic history of Christendom. But, rest assured, these histories are no whitewash. The Catholic Church is presented with all its warts along with all of its glories. I have just finished the fist two volumes of this series and look forward to starting the third (and buying the yet-to-be-published volumes). The only way these volumes could have been improved would have been with the addition of maps helping to set the stage where the history is played out. Some of the ancient place names are obscure and many modern place names do not correspond exactly with similar ancient ones."
+6417,2,Why Isn't this a Movie???,Grattan has been writing and rewriting the Mexican-American experience for decades -- and far more eloquently than anyone on the literary scene. Why hasn't Hollywood scooped up this fabulous book??? It's about time!Kelly Hayes-RaittLivingLargeInLimbo.comAmazon.com/author/KellyHayes-Raitt
+6418,1,Hype,"If you are looking for real answers, don't buy this book. It's a feel good read but provides nothing more than a bunch of hot wind. Morever, the style is bland, sleepy, like a ghostwriter did the best he could from notes he took from dictation."
+6419,1,Move over Plan 9,"I was amazed at the animation in the theater, it must have covered the rancid taste, as curry did before refrigeration. My first viewing on DVD left me thinking great movie for MST 3000. Natalie Wood, Liz Taylor, Mickey Rooney, Shirley--- There are great child actors out there, but you won't find one here, and being the essence of the plot, it's lack sinks the ship.George has got to go back to the Drawing board, this movie only sports top notch animation. Its not fit for human consumption."
+6420,2,"Great story, excellent writing, and NO PHOTOS!","If ever there was a book that cried out for photos, this one is it and yet no photos. I know there is now another book providing the photographic record, but they should have been in this volume. This is a huge and glaring mistake and only the skilled writer saved the book from disaster when the enginering must be verbally explained.I felt a number of minor characters in the story of the ship wreck could have been cut without any great loss to the central story which tends to bog down in detail about the disaster. The detail is needed in the recovery phase but not is telling the history and some drama was lost because of it.Over all a compelling read and well worth the time."
+6421,2,Loved it! (Until it melted in the dishwasher),"This was so quick and easy to use. I loved it! It specifically says on the package to hand-wash only, which is what I always did. But then one day my dear husband decided to help me out with the dishes and put the cheese slicer in the dishwasher. When it came out, it was slightly warped and the wires were very slack. It sort-of still works but the slice sizes are inconsistent now that the wires aren't taught. Bummer! It's so cheap I'll probably just order another one.My only other comment is that I would always run my knuckles into the counter when using it, so I have learned to put the cheese on an elevated cutting board and hang it off the edge to slice it cleanly onto a plate below."
+6422,1,A sub-par Bass 305 debut...,"Bass 305's debut album, Digital Bass, isn't a bad debut album, per se, but it's marred by way too much hip-hop/rap influence unlike Bass 305's succeeding albums -which showcase more electronic bass and other sounds to create techno-bass music. Granted, the CD thumps and one can show of one's subwoofer with this album, but 305's later material such as ""Bass The Future"" and ""Departure"" are much more complex and refined.Only Only recommended to a die-hard bass completist."
+6423,2,AMAZING VOLUME BY THE PLANET'S TOP EXPERTS!,"The North American Menopause Society has recently published Menopause Practice: A Clinician's Guide which is an amazing compilation of up-to-date, state-of-the-art information about a complicated subject that this Society and its members have reduced to a highly readable text. The information is thoroughly researched and provides abundant references while maintaining a readable format that savvy consumers will find valuable. The North American Menopause Society has done something that no traditional textbook can offer - that is, to utilize the best and the brightest of its thought-leaders to review, modify, and contribute in so many different areas involving health care of midlife women at menopause and beyond. Whether you are a clinician, a student, or an interested consumer, this study guide of menopausal medicine is a must for your bookshelf."
+6424,2,The Best CD in the World,"This is a must buy cd. It includes Redman, Method Man, Xibit, and DMX. The rap and rock in this cd is awsome. The intro and outro are both cool too. So if you're a Limp Bizkit fan and don't have this cd, then I suggest you go out to Wal-Mart or K-Mart and buy this awsome cd. The unedited version cd is even cooler but I had to get the edited one. My five best rated songs are My Generation, Rollin'(Air Raid Vehicle), Hot Dog, Rollin'(Urban Assault Vehicle), and Take A Look Around."
+6425,1,Horrible!,Doesn't tell you how to get anywhere when used with a GPS...simply shows you where you are. Nothing more than a glorified paper map. A complete embarassment!
+6426,2,Excellent Product; Sturdy & Comfortable,Great bag; very comfortable handling; holds my Dell Precision 6300; looks cool; padded well; great price; decent vendor; it cant get better than this; bought 2
+6427,1,This is a prophetess that endorsed Todd Bentley,A 'prophetess' that endorses Todd Bently? The penalty for false prophecy in the Old Testament was terrible indeed.I wish I could believe these prophecies! But Wendy Alec endorsed someone who turned out to be an adulterer. That is not the work of a true prophet surely?
+6428,1,Not so bad it's good--so bad it's JUST BAD,"Not even fun. There are movies that are so preposterous you just have to sit back and laugh. Unfortunately, this is not one of those movies. Hugh Jackman seems in pain a good part of the time, and not because of what his character is enduring--but rather what he as an actor is having to suffer through. The other actors seem to either not sense how appalling their dialogue is and how ridiculous the action and plot are, or not care."
+6429,1,"Well, Crap ...","Well, crap - Now another artist I like, has forced me to stop listening to and buying his music. Why can't entertainers just shut up and entertain? We all know they are dumb as a sack of dirt and have no clue about MY LIFE or what affects my family. By being political, Earle alienates half of his buying customers - bad business. Se Ya,...."
+6430,1,I must have dosed off....,"Sorry boys, but i thought this one was quite boring. I've read 2 others by Hollinghurst and found them good reads, so was disappointed in this novel. Too contrived, nothing to propel the story and just found it to be an OK read..."
+6431,1,Quite Unbelievable,"Although this book was a page turner it is an unrealistic and at times boring book. Some of the descriptions of clothing, living quarters, etc. was tedious. And the plot? Forget it...it is like a bad made for tv movie. I would have given it only one star but the extra star is for the author wisely not including any descriptive sex scenes. That truly would have made this book worth trashing."
+6432,1,Which Civil War??,"The advertisement does not tell the readers which Civil War this film is concerned with! It was very disappointing to find that it was about the American Civil War!Why do you advertise this sort of thing to British, or European, customers??"
+6433,1,"Garbage, inaccurate, incomplete, misleading","This book is garbage, innacurate and misleading. Like frustration-then buy it. A jeep mechanic told me this book was a great source of customers for him. The Haynes book is no better. These companies just copy errors and inaccuracies from each other.Another experienced mechanic called it propoganda, just enough truth so people can't tell what is lies. Maximum frustration. Example- just try to replace a front axle u joint using this books method. Their method works only on new cars. You won't be doing work on new under warranty cars. 5 year old cars rust. The Chilton new car methods in this book just don't work. This book will make you think repairs are simple, until you get half way into it and it just does not work."
+6434,2,Razor E300 Electric Scooter was just as expected - very good!,"The Razor scooter was a Christmas present that was extremely easy to put together, it was very well packed and shipping was immediate and problem free. The scooter performed as expected, so my daughter is having lots of fun. The whole process of finding, ordering, shipping was all very easy and fast! An overall pleasant shopping experience."
+6435,2,book review,"I felt that Amazon services was good and was surprise that it came to my place at the time it did, because of the holiday I thought it would come much later.The first book was very informitive the dates,times,the clothing. The customs about the Native American Indians I enjoy very much, also I was very excited to be able to read the next book what I have read so far."
+6436,2,Five Stars - bought it for my daughters,"I grew up watching it and I remember it as being such a racy show. Ha! Compared to what is considered 'family viewing' now, Facts of Life is tame, tame, tame. And that's a compliment. It's a show about CARING for your friends, building loving, human relationships with peers. Adore this series! I'm so glad I can put it on and my kids and watch it. Dispite it's dated-ness, fashion-wise, my girls love it. All the same problems exisit today. The humanity and close relationships built on good old respect really makes this series as STANDOUT in today's brisk society. I'm having a great time rewatching them!"
+6437,2,Haven Movie Soundtrack - Something a Little Different,"Saw the movie Haven in its World Premiere at the Toronto Film Festival in 2004 and thought, ""thats an interesting soundtrack""Now 5 years later, after purchasing the CD and listening to it, once again, I say ""an interesting soundtrack"", something a little different.Although not all the songs are appealing, it does have a nice island feel, especially the reggae cover version of ""Here Comes the Night""Janet"
+6438,2,LOVED IT!!!,"I, too, have read all of Terri's books and agree that Disappearing Acts is the best by far. It is so well written and so REAL that i think all of us can relate to it in some way or another. Ive read the book several times and have enjoyed it more each time. THIS one should have been a movie!"
+6439,1,misbegotten in more ways than one,"arguably the nadir of coppolas career, this mishmash can lay claim to keanu reeves's clunkiest performance. a second star cuz the sex scene is fun."
+6440,2,Decision for Disaster should be a movie,"I have read seven books on the Bay of Pigs invasion. This one, Decision for Disaster, really hit home! Fast-moving, accurate, emotional descriptions and analysis of the event by a man who was on the beach that fateful night. You travel with him as he and his frogmen move toward the shore. You feel the impact as the first shots of the invasion are fired. You sense the impending tragedy as the story unfolds.This is required reading for any student of the Bay of Pigs, and the impact that single event had on our Nation's history. I knew part of the story. I was there on that fateful night.The author is a real hero! When will this become a movie, or at least a ""special"" on the Military Channel."
+6441,2,One of the best magazines for families,"I have enjoyed this magazine for 3 years. It is one of the best magazines for families that I have ever read. It is filled with wonderful games, crafts, party ideas, and seasonal activities. I recommend it to anyone with children under 14. I've planned my vacations based on articles. I absolutely love it"
+6442,2,The Battery Works...,"This battery works fine for my HP DV1000 laptop. My old 12-cell battery died after putting in almost 4 good years of work. with this battery I get ~2.5-3 hours of battery life. It's like having a new computer again, after all but 3 of my cells in the old 12-cell battery died and I had only ~45 mins life.Everything arrived in a timely manner, and there were no issues with the seller (NewMP3technology).One note: when I began using this battery, my AC adapter would get hotter than I remember it being with the original battery. I'm not sure if this is due to the battery, or the cable has been getting old (but before this there was no issue with the cable & I was using it, with no battery to power my laptop.) In any case, now I need a new cord, due to a portion of the cable failing and overheating.Again, not sure that if the cable failed from overheating, or overheated due to failure (or if this is linked to the battery), just fyi."
+6443,1,Dont waste your time it aint as good as you may imagine,First of all i thought this was a good album. I liked the singles Gimmie the light and Get Busy but that was about it.I was under the impression that with 20 tracks and a good beat this may be a good album guess i was wrong cause these layed out songs will put you to sleep my advice is to not buy this load of crap and download the singles cause that is the only thing good bout this cd and this is the truth.
+6444,1,Falls short...,"The book, besides being out of date, fell way short of expectations in its day. There is a relatively short section specific to the breed followed by the typical, formulaic, generic 'any' dog breed advice found in book series of this ilk. The health information was minimal and glossed over the health issues found in the breed."
+6445,1,More hysteria from Ravi Batra,"In case you don't know, Ravi Batra is also the author of ""The Great Depression of 1990."" I know what you're asking yourself: there was a depression in 1990? No, there wasn't. But Dr. Batra predicted one. Now, with ""Stock Market Crashes of 1998 and 1999,"" the arch doomsayer is at it again, predicting dire times ahead when any sensible person knows better. Batra doesn't know as much economics as even the average college undergraduate. He decries free trade as if he's utterly unaware of the benefits of a division of labor. (If protectionism between countries is good, what about between states? Or cities? Or people?) If you're interested in learning something about the economy, try ""The Myth of Rich and Poor"" by Cox and Alm. Down Batra's way only madness lies."
+6446,1,"All gristle, no meat","After reading several magazine reviews of this book I anticpated an intriguing, tell-all story from a culinary insider. Bourdain is an insider but his book is an unintersting mess of ""so what, who cares"" insights into the world of (oh boy, I'm impressed ... not) NY restaurants. He throws around chefs names like they mean something to anyone but restaurant reviewers, exhibits no depth of character (I took drugs, I'm bad, really bad, no, really), and is a sloppy, repetitive writer (how many times can he tell readers we should learn Spanish if we're really serious about running a restaurant, because the best cooks are of Latin American desent?). I heartily recommend passing on this book to anyone who desires an even remotely entertaining, insightful or interesting look at the food business. This book should never have been printed."
+6447,2,A Solid Introduction To Classic Art.,"I got this book out the library and enjoyed it so much that I purchased it online. Sister Wendy is a great art critic,especially for people who might be intimated by it. She is to the point,uses unfussy language and truly seems to love painting. I did question some of her choices,but art is a subjective medium,.and overall,I agreed with many of them, Although why she didn't include the ""Mona Lisa"" or Dega's dancer's is beyond me. Finally,she is very-open minded (considering her vocation) so a lot her choices were pleasantly surprising. Enjoy the beautifully reproduced paintings and pick your own favorite works.."
+6448,1,Ash & Genova..,"This story wasn't interesting, and I'm not sure I believe 2 complete strangers who sleep together shortly after meeting can build true love. Especially when the question theyask each other is 'will you be faithful to me'.Rothgar was fabulous as usual. As much as I love this guy, I know he's never going to say the wrong thing because he's so darn formal All the time, even when he's supposedly relaxing.I didn't like the idea that Ash had bastard children, and I especially didn't like it when Ash flat out told Genova that even if he was Charlie's father, he would drop the baby at an orphange with some money and not look back.The Aunts were okay, I guess, but 'Grandy' was just an old biddy."
+6449,2,wee ride,"love the seat, hate that amazon made it appear that the bar didn't come with it, now i have an extra bar that it completely unnecessary. next time, i may look on amazon and buy somewhere else."
+6450,1,not the same layout as print,"This is one of my largest complaints of the kindle system as a whole. This book is a dynamic book, meaning that the page is sized for the text. The problem with this feature is twofold. First, the parts lists are difficult to reference quickly. Second, a page cannot be referenced by page number (as is done in most lecture classes). It would be a great Kindle feature if you could choose between standard book layout styled print and dynamic pages (depending on your personal preference or quality of eyesight). Until then, this book is best bought as a hard copy."
+6451,2,cold revenge,"I was riveted to this horrifying story of a young woman's abduction & incarceration by a man she never sees. When she finally escapes back to her life, she not only can't quite remember what she was doing before she was snatched, she is told, in no uncertain terms that not only can no one help her, no one really believes her.Abbie is not your usual damsel in distress, she's got ice in her veins & revenge on her mind.Nicci French has once again delivered a spine-tingling, hair-raising journey into the dark side of humanity.Scary, immediate & ultimately satisfying!"
+6452,1,The guy from Canada is sooo right!,"I read the reviews for this CD, but unfortunately went ahead and ordered this CD set. I should've paid attention to the last review listed, the one from Canada. I wasted my money on this CD. It is just as bad as he said it was. Next time I will pay attention to the negative reviews."
+6453,1,Not Very good,"Buy the Watchman and the Cuckoo's Egg, and maybe even At Large, but save yourself some money and skip the Fugitive. The book seems to be patched together out of boring, roughly transcribed telephone conversations with Kevin Mitnick while he whines about his life slumming ""underground"" and avoiding capture. I thoroughly enjoyed the author's other book, the Watchman, but the Fugitive was a sore disappointment."
+6454,1,Worst movie i've ever seen..this was bad..very bad,"What a waste of perfectly good film,time,money and my 117 minutes; this THINg has no plot, no storyline worthy of note, a script that MUST have been written by someone who wrote their first class play a few days previously and probably got a failing grade for it.This movie was utter garbage ...the ending was rushed and I seriously didn't know it was the ending when i saw it.Oh dear..this was bad..very bad"
+6455,2,A little bit of London,"Chas & DaveA little bit of nostalgia, these are the songs we sang in pubs back home or should I say 'ome! it's lovely"
+6456,2,Great compilation guitar playing,"This is a great compilation of various ""classic rock"" guitar playing. This is a must for your set and is rare in that vocals are left."
+6457,1,He's no Steven Segal!,"My adult kids know how much I love watching my boys Segal, Van Damme & Norris. My youngest (27) suggested I watch Taken as Leeson is the new Segal. Wrong! At least my fellas make now bones about the action thriller movies they make. Taken was cheezy and unimpressive."
+6458,1,Quality control issues,"Had it for a year and while it worked the cat loved it. It is located in a sheltered area on our front porch. Does not directly see the elements other than cold. After one year it is dead. After re-reading some of the other reviews I remember my trepidation over buying this product but gave it a try anyway. Looks like no quality control and the lack of response to the buzzing noise comments made from other users has me concerned about replacing with product from this manufacturer. I will look around before I do anything, and I guess the cat gets some nice over-nighters in the garage instead of the porch. Anyway, be careful with this item. Looks to me like a company that doesn't really care too much about their products."
+6459,2,Best Jerky,"I have been trying different jerky's and really love this one. It is turkey (healthy, low fat) and contains no preservatives or nitrates. Delicious!!"
+6460,2,We are so glad we got this video,"Our whole family just loved this video, it is simple and sweet, with no bad language, or bad taste. We were all enraptured by the lovable young pollyanna and her innocent adventures. Even our four year old has watched the entire video over and over again. We recommend it very highly."
+6461,2,"Great, Wonderful, and absolutely beautiful","I bought this Cd after seeing the movie and I just can't stop listening to it! It's beautiful. The music is simply magical it makes you want to listen to it again and again. I would really purchase this Cd. Even if you don't like classical, like me, I found it wonderful."
+6462,1,A Complete Miss!,"The people at Hippo Records obviously have no concept of what Judy Garland was all about! This new CD release contains the weakest moments from her exciting TV series. The only worthwhile tracks are ""Here's to Us"" and ""Something Cool"" which she recorded but did not air. That latter is actually only a partial cut, she didn't finish the recording. Stick to the DVD's of this series, this CD is a complete miss!"
+6463,2,Nostalgia in a box,"What took so long?? It is my personal belief that Duran Duran's b-sides (particularly ""Faster Than Light"", ""Like an Angel"" and ""Khanada"") were better than many of the tracks that made it onto their early albums. Unfortunatley Capitol has chosen to distribute these lost gems over 13 CD's by packaging them in minature reproductions of their original 12"" sleeves. It's a nice nod to nostalgia, but it is frustrating to have to shuffle through all these CD's to cherry pick the best of this compilation. It has to be said that many of the early ""night versions"" have not dated well at all and sound hopelessly campy in hindsight. The stronger remixes found here include the 12"" remix of ""Hold Back the Rain"", the dance mix of ""The Reflex"" and the monster mix of ""Is There Something I Should Know""."
+6464,2,Solid advice,There are a number of books on the market on reinventing yourself or finding a second career. This one was easy to read and offered a number of practical steps to take as you move forward. I liked that he inserted real-life stories to illustrate each of his points. Definitely worth purchasing if you're thinking about another career or concerned that your existing one may disappear!
+6465,2,Are You A Beach Boys Fan? Are You Pressed For Time?,"If so, then this Best Of The Beach Boys is for you (my copy is entitled Hits Of The Beach Boys is indentical) as it only runs to 25 mintues!The 10 songs are from the 1963-66 era and could easily been in chronological order, but are not.The quality of the tracks is not in question, they are the original classics which will always invoke careless days surfing, meeting girls and driving dragster cars.Most fans will want much more than this offering, it certainly whets the appitite!"
+6466,2,My nephew loves it!,It's really wonderful - my nephew absolutely loves it.Reminds me of the Alf tent I had as a child.
+6467,1,Not 10'' . Not even close,"I ordered this as a gift to go along with the Olivia saves the Circus book. I ordered it because 10"" would be the perfect size for a one year old. I would have had a happy ending had the Olivia been 10"" it is not. It is 6"". Very dissappointed and a little upset because the product discription is dishonest. I will not purchase from the Book Fair again."
+6468,2,Good movie....,"PU-239 is a relativately unknown movie. I came across the preview on some other movie a few months back and was intrigued by it.The other reviews have summed up the plot pretty well, so I won't bore you with more of that.PU-239 is a dark suspense Russian gangster movie, with alot of comedy mixed in. The acting in the movie is pretty good, considering the mostly unknown cast.A great dvd to check out if your looking for someting a little out of the ordinary!Highly recommended!"
+6469,1,OK for light home use but not heavy duty use.,"We purchased two of these racks to use at our charity rummage sales. Unfortunately, they were not as sturdy and durable as they claimed to be. We barely had 100 lbs of clothes on the racks and one of them broke during the first use. One of the bars broke off completely. We were very disappointed in this purchase."
+6470,1,A band with decent sound.,"A few of these songs are okay. The band as a whole has talent and can play, but the lyrics to mature a little. The music isn't very complicated. They will get better though."
+6471,2,looks new after flight,"I bought this stroller for my tall 2.5 yr old for traveling. I love it!! It is not too small but not big either. Many of the more pricy and cheaper light weight strollers sun hood did not fit over her head it rubed it is also roomier in the bottom area. She did not even fit in the Combi! she is thin. It is light but sturdy I can ""whip"" around with one hand while holding other things on the jet way. The basket can hold a large diaperbag and a large purse. We went on several flights (it was not in a cover) and it look brand new. My Evenflow was thrashed in one flight, with that cheap plastic. I love this stroller It folds up nice, smaller would be better but it is fine. I did not want a stoller than can not be sat in for awhile why we walked around. Go get it"
+6472,1,Plastic trigger broke in no time.,"I like the way it worked for about a month. If you do a lot of quick triggering back to back, the plastic trigger locking part will break & you will have to chunk the whole thing or use some tie wire."

+6474,2,"Love hearing everyone say ""I want one""",I really didn't think I would want something like this. I'm more of a computer gamer.Once I saw the screen quality I know that Sony didn't just make this as a 1 time deal.Watching a movie on the screen is fantastic. I sometimes have a lunch hour or a plane ride that is just boring.Heres some advice. Go to places like Gamestop or other game store. There are tons of used movies and games. Even though Spiderman2 wasn't new in the package it was new to me and 1/2 price.Get a carrying case. I don't like leaving it in the car in case you get broken into. and get either a car charger or a charger for work. The battery lasts a long time but needs 2 hours to charge.the discs are small so get a case that fits the unit and the disc's.
+6475,1,Eh...,The item I got doesn't select the cup size appropriately. Very disappointed in the seller's description not mentioning that it didn't work properly.
+6476,2,Fun and Hysterical,This book is so fabulous. It's very fun reading for parents (who'll get more of the jokes then the children). Which makes it reading enjoyment for everyone. Sense of humor required.
+6477,1,Don't buy unless you want cancer,I find it disgusting and horrible that you could sell or even give someone a product that has a sticker stating this product may contain materials that can cause cancer or reproductive problems. You should be ashamed of yourself for selling this.
+6478,1,TOO MUCH IRREGULAR,"One good song, one bad song; one good song, one horrible song... THat's how this CD goes forever. ""CLouds and Rain"" and the reggae orientated ""She Took My Breath Away"" are the best songs. The rest is, to be modest, strange... Ian Gillan put the blame for the failure of this recording (in his autobiography) on the label. It's not. He also said that this is the album he listen mostly of all the records he has ever made!!! I think he wrote that just like a merketing ploy, for readers and fans go and buy the album!!! (it worked with me!!!!!!)"
+6479,2,Projector Screen Border,"I really have no idea what this product is supposed to be for, but someone recommended it to use as a border on my projection screen. Worked like a charm. Easy to cut, easy to stick. Looks great."
+6480,2,Recommended Reading,"I think it was a very informative book on how to improve your self esteem. With very little effort, you can achieve everything you ever wanted. It also ties in with other well known books like; The Celestine Phrophecy. Amazing how different authors think alike"
+6481,2,excellent,"If you read my review of The Altai Chronicles by Carol Hiltner and you read this book you will see why I said Hiltner's book was phony. This is 100 times better. As a long time student of shamanism I see the ring of truth here; if she is conning us as one reviewer suggested then she did a super job. I enjoyed her second book but not quite as much. So Olga, when can we expect number three? (not counting the one in French)"
+6482,2,Impressive!!!,"I love it! StarOffice does the same thing as MS Office, but at a fraction of the cost. It's an impressive piece of software and easy to use. Switching from a Microsoft product to this one is like switching between a Nisson & Toyota car...they have slight differences, but accomplish the same task and both can compare to one another overall. Every software program has its errors or bugs...this one has no less than any of the others. The biggest difference is the price which is amazing if you think about it. I am finding that StarOffice is powerful and can do anything from word processing to presentations, not to mention drawing, text/HTML editor, and even a database. It's awesome and a great alternative to other software programs that cost an arm and a leg. I purchased it right when it came out and I think it deserves a 5 Star rating!"

+6484,1,"not that I don't like this show, but..","As a Korean, I must comment that the korean acting/ writing is atrocious. Except for the girl, the guy and the flashback actors that speak korean butcher it to a point where many KOreans won't be able to understand it unless they write it down. I'm most certain that the show spends several milion dollars per - I just hope they get some better actors for season 2"
+6485,2,"Good product, wish better delivery system","Motherlove Herbal Nipple cream helped to sooth my sore, raw breastfeeding nipples as advertised. Although, called a ""cream,"" it's more like an ointment. That made no difference to me as it still worked! My baby did not seem to mind any residue and I was very happy that I did not need to wipe off before each feeding. OUCH! Wish product came in a better delivery system, like push up tube. It's a small container and not very sanitary to put your finger in each time to get product out. Despite that, definitely would still recommend to a nursing mother."
+6486,1,English-Latin Section Very Disapointing,"I choose this dictionary after taking a quick look at a copy of it in a bookstore, and having been pleased with its font and overall page layout. The pages weren't too busy, making easy to pick out each entry. That said, I should've taken a better look at the English to Latin section. I was very disappointed to see that for every noun in English there were given a few optional translations, but the dictionary did not break down each Latin example. No way to know what declension it was. It says which gender it each is but the only way to know its declension is to flip back over to the Latin section and look up the word under Latin. Only there will you see the conventional entry used for nouns in a Latin dictionary, i.e. flius, -, m, son.My advice: skip this and find another one, and look more carefully than I did at how the dictionary is organized."
+6487,2,amazing music,"I had the pleasure of seeing Shawn in concert a few weeks ago, and I was mesmerized. His heart and soul come through in his music, and you can tell that he is deeply affected by everyone he meets and has a great compassion for people and their experiences. He has an amazing voice, great guitar skills, and his band is great too. Soul's Core is amazing - he goes from soft ballads to rocking, spirited songs. It's hard to put him in just one category - some of his songs have a country tone, others don't - he's an amazingly versatile artist. The bottom line is, if you like good music with honest, soulful lyrics, you'll like Shawn Mullins."
+6488,1,"Spiritless, Pointless, Meaningless","This is a book of vacuous characters who do nothing. The plot goes nowhere while it follows Holly Golightly everywhere. While engaging in an endless round of socializing, she fails to endear herself in any way. I would certainly not waste my life chasing this shallow bimbo. The film version of ""Breakfast at Tiffany's"" must have been a success because the entire script was rewritten to include only the original title. I give this book 1 star only because it was so mercifully short."
+6489,2,Works Great / Programming Somewhat Compliated,"First off, I must say that my radio performance is excellent. I set it up and the only verbal warnings I get are for severe thunderstorm and tornado warning for my county (Lake County, IL). This is great so I don't have to be bothered or woken up for other warnings or watches that don't apply to me. Have only had one Severe Thunderstorm warning since I purchased the radio two weeks ago, but it worked flawlessly. Highly recommended.Only reason for 4 stars and not five is that programming was complicated and not intuitive. However, directions are pretty good, and I was able to program just the warnings that I wanted for my county only."
+6490,1,Boring and Disappointing,"This is Wrestlemania, the showcase of the immortals! Yet this Wrestlemania was anything but. The main event was boring because there is no way Bam Bam Bigelow should have lost to LT. You know it, I know it, and everyone else knows it. The Heavyweight Title Match was not up to par and very predictable. For Wrestlemania this was a disgrace!"
+6491,2,Remember the 70's?,"""Remember the Titians"" is a realistic feature that triggers a lot of emotions, and it demands a good soundtrack. But good doesn't even do justice to this; GREAT is more like it1 You'll almost forget you're listening to a movie soundtrack, more like a typical recollection of 70's hits. ""Aint No Mountain High Enough"" and ""Na Na Na Na"" steal the show; also noteable are ""I Want to Take You Higher"" and ""Spirit in the Sky"". On another note completly, this is one of Disney's best soundtracks for a live action feature EVER--keep it up, Disney! Usually, soundtracks for live-action movies just include instrullmental tracks, and don't appeal to many people as albums to purchase. But this one ROCKS DOWN THE HOUSE! I wish ALL of today's live action movies turned out such good music. Don't you agree?"
+6492,2,"The surprises of love, life and school!","Life is full of little surprises and you never know when one can happen. This story is about Jessica Wakefield and her little surprises of life. This book shares her feelings and thoughts about love,(one of her major surprises) life and school. My opinion on this book is that it was well written and seemed to be realistic. It's one of those books that you just can't put down! In the Sweet Valley High series there is another diary by Jessica. That one is probably the better of the two. I guess I would rate it a 10! I suggest this book to anyone who likes to read about love, life and school! If you don't like the book I'll be very surprised"
+6493,2,Amazing Compilation,"Here is a compilation full of wellknowns and a few unknowns. Most people (like one of the featured reviews mentions) are unaware of the British rock band Muse who contributes their track ""Cave"" at #10 on this cd. The track is off their 1999 album ""Showbiz"" which is a musthave for any rock fan.all in all, its an amazing cd!"
+6494,2,Not a bad read,"I enjoyed this book on my Kindle. I must admit the book is a lot better than the movie. The character of Edward & Bella is much better in this book than on the screen. I found the book and story line a little slow in the middle particularly the romancing of the two main characters (then again, I am a male). I feel this was omitted in the movie. I have purchased all the other books by Stehpanie and I will enjoy reading them on my Kindle. His book was easily read on my Kindle. Well done Amazon and keep up the good work. Buy this Kindle book, it`s wrth the relaxing read. A well written book."
+6495,2,bargin fan,"i am still trying to figure out how this fan and the other honeywell fan differ (other than this is 24.99 and the other is 39.99). mine has the exact features as the more expensive one even though this is described as a bargin unit. this has the individual fan controls, directional grills, thermostat.... i would advise since this product is 24.99 to purchase something else too so you can take advantage of the free shipping. i didnt really need anything else so i picked up a 1.99 cat toy and got the free shipping instead of forking out the 14 bucks shipping would have cost without the additional purchase!"
+6496,1,Useless,"I can find more detailed info online, it is not book's author fault, it is what we live with Internet age, book written good, but I had questions, and I had answered by google right away, and more. Books like that should have websites with FAQ."
+6497,2,Heart Felt and Very Believable!,"I must say after reading some of the reviews about this movie, such as how bad this movie was and the characters were, I almost never watched it. I am so glad I did and I know this movie will and has played out in many homes across America in true life. I believe this is a shame, but true. The characters/actors were not your Big Names of Hollywood and frankly I am glad. This made it more believable. I must say my heart went out for our main character and the twists and turns he had to travel to find out the truth, but he did and the ending is believable also. I do hope you give this Production your time, it is worth it, it was to me.M Stutler Nov 15, 2012"
+6498,1,Nikon wireless remote,"Not at all what I expected from the picture presented on the web. Probably worth the price, but disappointing to me. Useful only if you are in front of the camera, and only a short distance away. You have to be in line with the infra-red sensor on the front of the camera."
+6499,2,It's a good plastic replica,"When it comes down to it, this is a plastic ""toy"". I recommend adult supervision if used by kids. This rifle is realistic and a very good replica of a SIG 550/551 assault rifle. It is a spring loaded single shot rifle. It does shoot 6mm plastic BBs, thus the adult supervision suggestion. As described, this is 1:1 scale. But this is a lightweight plastic rifle and any rough handling can damage it. Shoots about 200FPS with range of 75-100ft but accurate to about 25ft. Good for short range target practice. Have fun and practice safe shooting."
+6500,1,Spearboxx is way below expectations,When you think of outcast this music they are making seems foreign what the hell were they thinking man this music is terrible I wouldnt listen to the cd if it was given to me let alone buy it. After this cd outcast is definitly going to be forced into early retirement
+6501,2,This is a good product,"I have had these for years and they have come in quite handy. They are easy to use. The only cons that I have are:1) it is hard to read the tiny numbers (even with my glasses on)2) when my son has a fever he sweats a lot and they do not always stay in his armpit.However, the readings have been pretty accurate, and I like the fact that you get a lot of these in the pack. So, if one falls off, it's no big deal to just get another."
+6502,2,If you just need a book this is fun then this one is for you,"I would say that reading this book was a good and easy read, you must keep in mind that Meg Cabot knows how to make you laugh. The characters seem very real and make you wounder throughout the book what is going to happen next. I would give this two thumbs up."
+6503,1,Pretty Turrible,"Yes I spelled terrible wrong on purpose, but honestly this movie was just awful. It can't have helped that I didn't realize it was pg or whatever before renting it, and therefore didn't get all the nudity and extremely graphic violence I was looking forward to. Anywho, the movie may be cool if you were into the books or are under the age of 9. Even though I was looking forward to imagined carnal undertones, this movie was lacking in every respect and I still stopped watching before the end, which is a big deal for me."
+6504,1,Too stylized for my taste,"I might like this music better in a live performance, but on disc I find it rather grating. The performers seem bent on creating effects--""let's turn those old tunes on their heads."" I think those old tunes have a traditional loveliness and was hoping that these skilled artists could enahnce them even further. Different tastes, I guess."
+6505,2,Feel What the Characters Feel,Be swept away into the emotions of the characters in this story set in modern day Brazil. Your reading journey will be full of twists and turns.
+6506,2,Mice,"This older children's book has great photographs and great information on mice, whether for pets or just for general education."
+6507,1,Only One Good Song,"I bought this CD for my husband as a gift. He enjoys the song ""Life Goes On"" Well, NONE of the rest of the songs have a sound/beat anything like it! The rest of the album is all hip hop type music. Boy, was he disappointed. I would not recommend this CD to people who like Leann's previous music. We were looking for some country and country/pop crossover tunes and found only one song we liked. Very disappointing. I wish I had just bought the single. Make sure you find a copy of this CD and listen to the whole thing before purchasing it."
+6508,1,Not What I Expected,"The footbed on these clogs is very comfortable, but buyer beware - the buckles are attached with staples through the suede and come undone very easily (in my case, after two wearings) The seller's return policy is such that once the shoes have been worn outside, they won't take them back. I had to sew the buckles back on. In my opinion, $100 shoes shouldn't need to be repaired after two wearings.The suede is also much darker than the picture - still a pleasant color, but not what I expected when I ordered."
+6509,2,not finished,i have not finished this painting.i cannot rate it until i have finished it.not fair to ask this question before i have finished the painting.i might decide i do not like it.
+6510,2,Archie & the crew are back!,"It was great to see Archie, Dingbat, Meathead and Little Goil again. I hadnt seen any of these charactersin many years, and they are as funny & relevant today as they were 40 yrs ago. The dvd was clear as a bell,and it came within a week of purchase. As usual, Amazon comes through again!"
+6511,2,Very Pretty,"I was very comfortable in this costume. I ordered a medium/large and just barely fit into the top. If they had a large/Xlarge it would have been better, at least on top. I received many compliments....who doesn't appreciate them!! I'm really glad I bought this one."
+6512,2,Rollaway pleased!,"I searched locally for a comparable bed, and price, found the best deal on Amazon!"
+6513,1,Just two songs,"Out of this mediocre film I will only remember two of the songs,""Old Mac Donald"" and ""I love only one girl"".The second one is an english version of the French oldie ""Au pres de ma blonde"" heard also in the Doris Day film ""April in Paris""."
+6514,1,Worst Shaver Ever!,"I bought this Panasonic shaver based on the reviews on Amazon and was greatly disappointed.I tried it as a standard dry shaver and it kept missing hairs. I tried it as a wet shaver and I tried it with shaving cream but still got poor results. I ending up buying another shaver 2 weeks after buying the Panasonic because it was so bad.Now, after having it less than a year, the shaver will not charge and I have to throw it away at an electronic waste center.Do not waste you're money on this piece of junk."
+6515,2,Skecher Athletic Mules,"Bought these for work. I HATE Crocs, they are so ugly! I wanted some cute work shoes to wear with my scrubs that I could just slip on and off. These shoes are extremely cute and comfortable."
+6516,2,Mondo Heart,"We've been waiting 4 years for a new Pagan Love cd and it's been worth the wait ! Jai Uttal's musical vision has maturedimmensely since the great ""Shiva Station"". He brings a new conception to ancient prayers (we can pray and dance at the same time!), and dives deeper into an expanded pallette of sounds, musical themes, moods and colors . Listening to this collection of songs, I feel like I'm travelling across the globe.You have to listen to Jai's version of the Beatle's classic, ""Tomorrow Never Knows"", and the Hebrew prayer for peace, ""Shalom"", to understand the vast scope of this CD."
+6517,2,TSL Rocks!!!!,"TSL is no doubt one of my favorite bands. They have such amazing lyrics in their songs as well as great talent overall. I definitely recommend everyone listening to them. I would also recommend seeing them live if you get a chance. They have such great energy on the stage and are just awesome. (And performing in Denver's altitude can't be the easiet thing to to...) And if anyone doubts their commitment to what they're doing just listen to ""Given the Chance."" (""There's not a day that I can't I say all this time I'm living out my dream..."") Hearing them express their enthusiasm for making music and performing is so encouraging. Its always nice to hear that artists are making music just for their love of it and the satisfaction it gives them."
+6518,2,A Great Book By An Exelent Author...,"This book is my favorite(So far). It tells the exiting story of a young mouse, Martin son of Luke the Warrior, who gets enslaved by an evil Tyrant, Badrang. Badrang takes Martins sword, and makes the young mouse work to build a fortress. Martin breaks free with some help from Feldoh, Brome, Rose, and Grumm. An exiting adventure that will make you laugh, cry, and cheer!"
+6519,2,Excellent coverage of content networking,"As an IT manager, I can't say enough about this book. It covers all of the issues surrounding content networking in a clear an easy to read way. I especially found the SSL and caching chapters useful since I'm in the middle of deploying solutions for both problem areas. The SSL chapter clearly explains how the protocol works and explains how it relates to real-life issues in deploying SSL accelerators.I've also found this book useful to get my junior administrators up to speed with the technologies that they have to learn. Finding staff that is familiar with this stuff is hard but with a book like this, I can actually provide useful training material without having to develop anything of my own or spend a lot of time explaining the basics. I intend to buy copies for all of my staff."
+6520,2,A single with some very nice b-side treats.,"The original version of the title track can be found on Amos's second solo release, ""Under the Pink."" The version here is the one used for the promotional video clip for the song. It is shortened dramatically, with a significant amount of content taken out. The reason for this is quite simple: the original is simply too long for radio and video play. Regardless, it worked: ""Cornflake Girl"" remains one of Amos's biggest hits to date. The b-sides on this single include the cute, but not ground-breaking, ""Daisy Dead Petals,"" and some of Tori's best b-side work: the Amos fan favorite ""Honey"" and the haunting ""Sister Janet."""
+6521,1,GE model # 27930ge3-p cordless phone,"The model # 27930ge3-p cordless phone i purchased at k-mart in london ky just over a year ago quit working whenever i hit the talk button i get 3 beeps but no dial tone. I tried to contact GE about my prob. but that was impossible. They make you go thru some outfit called Thompsons who handles their phone products for them and you can't get thru this outfits voice mail layers to speak with a real person. After spending 15 min working my way thru their automated voice system, it finally instructed me that if I had the phone over a year it was out of warrenty and if it had quit working i should get rid of it and buy a new one. As far as I am concerned GE does not have any customer support for their phones."
+6522,2,"Laugh Out Loud, Funny!","This is my favorite of the ""Best of"" collection! I laughed until I cried at points!"
+6523,2,They ask to listen to it again and again!,"The children in my Pre-K class cannot get enough of this book. The magic of the illustrations and the text has them mesmerized. Many times, when we have finished reading the story, they want to here it again!"
+6524,2,RETURN OF THE JEDI,"Silly, strange and *slightly* disappointing end to the trilogy is still great fun to watch, but not as good as the other two. The movie also features a few stupid things (Ewoks? Little bears with rocks and arrows taking on trained military soldiers in armor with guns? and winning! Stupid) The end is possibly the best part of the movie, and one of the best parts of the trilogy, as Luke confronts his father for the last time."
+6525,1,machina - not much to be desired.,"machina - the machines of god is, in my opinion, quite likely the worst pumpkins release to date. the songs are for the most part boring and unmelodic. (and this coming from a die-hard pumpkins fan!) even adore had fairly strong melodies throughout. also, machina was promised to be the pumpkins striking back at the world that scorned them. it was touted to be their new rock and roll anthem. i find this album almost completely devoid of rock, with few exceptions (i.e.-the everlasting gaze, heavy metal machine). the pumpkins seem to have lost their flair for beautiful riff-based songs. listen to siamese dream and then compare with the new machina. the new release has virtually no catchy guitar hooks. i understand the princeple of musical evolution, but i think that we've lost the pumpkins that we'd come to know and love. they've de-volved into something that, quite frankly, i just don't understand or appreciate."
+6526,2,Supes flies on the Great White Way,"""Superman: The Musical?"" You might claim it sounds like a bad idea. And as a life-long Superman fan, I would agree. But when I found out about this show, I rushed to find the soundtrack. Fearing what would happen to Superman without the music of John Williams. But the Man of Steel soars with the music of Strouse and Adams, the same composers of ""Bye Bye Birdie."" The music is delightfully simple, with no hard edges or philosophical meanings. The lyrics and melodies connote an age of innocence, a comic book culture in which simple actions offered role models and uncomplicated heroes. The CD is reasonably priced with 23 tracks, including 4 bonus tracks. The booklet comes with a synopsis of the show and pictures from the production. A must for fans of Broadway, obscure musicals, or Superman fans."
+6527,1,Did not order this subscription,"I did not order this magazine, and am not happy that I was subscribed to it and am trying to get my money refunded. I do not know how this happened exactly, I do not even read this magazine. I am not a very happy customer about this and it seems to be pass the ""buck"" time trying to get this issue resolved"
+6528,1,Disappointment,"This book came highly recommended to me, both by friends and by the excellent reviews here and on Barnes & Noble's site. (And it has such a pretty cover!) Despite this, I was disappointed by it.Plotwise, I believe that Hollick accomplishes her goal in providing a gritty, Dark Ages version of Arthur. That bit she does well. However, there was too much smut in it for my taste (numerous sex scenes, description of a rape). I wish someone had mentioned that to me before I bought it, because I would have spent my $16 on something else (for example, Parke Godwin'sFirelord, which is written in a similar style (Arthur as a military leader rising to power in Roman Britain) but is a more ingenious and well-written narrative overall)."
+6529,1,Be Careful,My husband took our son and his friend for a ride and the trailer tipped completly on it's side as he was coming up the driveway from the street! The kids were well with in the wieght limit and he was going slow but both children were hurt and now I'm afraid to use it. Be careful turning and going over bumps!
+6530,2,Brilliant,A absolutly brilliant film. Enhanced for proper 16:9 widescreen format the picture quality and sound are excellent. A long film but never boring. I found it gripping with a great script and film layout. I would recomend everyone buying this on DVD.
+6531,2,Perversely Uplifting,"I am trying to be frugal with my five star reviews but this album deserves full marks without question. Judging by my screen name, one can safely assume that I am a Will Oldham fan. I, myself not being much of a writer, will avoid trying to pin this album down with my words but direct those interested to reviews at both pitchforkmedia.com and nme.com."
+6532,1,How Loud can you go,"I found this trainer online and read the reviews and i was expecting it to be a little loud..but it is way TOO LOUD..the faster you ride the louder it gets, i thought i could drown it out with headphones, but nope..if you are looking for something quieter, spend the extra money. Wont be riding this at 5am, I will wake the whole house. You get what you paid for, and it is not peace and quiet."
+6533,2,"Nice Design, Great Bang for Buck!!!","I bought these speakers to replace my Logitech X-230 speakers. The speakers have much better bass response than the Logitech ones do. They also have a more sleek design. The only drawback is that the mid range isn't quite as good at low volumes. This can be compensated by using a EQ in I-Tunes. Another advantage over the Logitech speakers is that the volume control also adjusts the level when you are wearing headphones. Previously I had to change the volume in Windows (what a pain). Over all, I am very happy with the speakers, and when you factor in the price, there is no comparison!!!"
+6534,1,Dissapointed Floyd fan,I've been a Pink Floyd fan for 40+ years and was excited about this release after reading reviews. Nothing earth shattering in the remix and the live version leaves a lot to be desired.
+6535,2,metal iron rest,i am enjoying the idea of placing my iron on this metal iron rest. no chance of it being knocked over or falling off the ironing board on accident. a good buy
+6536,2,You only better,"You know the GI diet really works actually it is life changing. People, we are in a sweet world, sugar is added to everything and it is making us sick. Read this book it will teach you such valuable understandable information."
+6537,1,if you like rust buy this item,within 4 months of purchase the pole rusted very badly and started staining the tub. I had to replace it with one of better quality. I would not buy this item again
+6538,2,Thumbs way up,"Not just another ""Star Wars"" parody, this is a very clever, ultra-hilarious takeoff that bears repeated viewing. Slim on the bonus features, but such is easily overlooked when the main feature is so good. This is the best of Steve Oedekerk's ""Thumb"" movies, but check out ""Blair Thumb"", ""Thumbtanic"", and ""Bat Thumb"" (and soon ""Frankenthumb"") for more hilarity."
+6539,2,I Was Taken Back to My Innocent Years!,"Kathy Mattea has taken me back to my Innocent Years! This CD has brought me back in time, like a time machine.. With her beautiful alto voice, as she sings with so much feeling and depth of her soul. All the songs are sung with such beauty, the musicians deserve a great applause also. It seems like forever while I waited to see Kathy Mattea write again and she sure shines in ""The Inoccent Years"" and ""Calling My Name."" She really shows that a love song can be done with success in songs such as ""I have Always Loved You"", an ""Thats The Deal."" I cannot stop playing this CD..."
+6540,1,Not worth it,"I bought this product hoping to be able to watch through it all. First of all because of the weight of the cds it broke through the box into the compartment under that holds the episode guide etc. etc. This caused the compartment to get stuck and you could not get it out. As i began watching the first season some episodes skipped a little, i though ok it was shipped i guess i can deal with it. But getting into the 2nd season some episodes started skipping alot and some cds just did not read altogether. Because of this i checked through all of the cds and i found many of them to be comepletely scratched. I beleive this occured because of the bad packaging that the cds come in. They do not come in jewel cases. They come in this cardboard cd holder which holds all of the cds. I suggest buying season by season in normal DVD cases which."
+6541,1,what a piece of waste!,"this book goes on and on and on about the same thing. the author must love to hear him self rambling in a empty space. there is no useful information in this book. if you want to learn COM and DCOM, buy microsoft press's books."
+6542,1,what might of been,"there was potential...republic could have done things with this one...the lack of a credible villain, Terry's whininess, the cheesy tiger men, and I am afraid this was typical of the studio...cliffhangers were decent...but, not good enough..."
+6543,2,Best Cookbook I own,"If I absolutely had to choose a favorite cookbook, this one would be it. If I think to myself, ""I want to try a new recipe today (out of 84 cookbooks) but I NEED it to have good results, without question,"" this is the book I'd go to. I love the roasted sweet potato, onion, and apple soup and also the eggplant butter with potatoes. The recipes are rich and satisfying but also healthy, incorporating vegetables and grains."
+6544,2,A Master at Work,"Ranglin's roots are in reggae, and Gotcha! has much more of a reggae feel to it than does his recording Old Solutions, which features more of a an African/World Music sound. However, Gotcha! is not really a reggae recording, it is a jazz recording with reggae at its core. Ranglin is a master at weaving his guitar around a melody, never seeming to be trying to impress, but always impressing with his inventiveness and exquisite sense of timing. It goes without saying that the engineering is first-rate, making this a disk that is highly recommendable both musically and sonically."
+6545,1,ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT NOT PROPER FIT,"I purchased 4 Oxygen sensors for the upper left & right, and lower left and lower right for my 2001 pathfinder a few weeks ago. The sensors for the upper left and right were delivered before the other 2 which arrived about a week later. I did not get a chance to have these replaced by the mechanic until a few days ago only to find out that the connectors for the lower left and lower right were totally different from the original ones. This I find kind of disheartening as the products states that these were ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT replacement. That is the reason for buying them in the first place and not the UNIVERSAL ones - ended up costing me and extra $50.00 to have the mechanic modify them. DISAPPOINTED."
+6546,2,Black & Decker ASI1300 Air Station Inflator,I am very pleased with this product. It is not that noisy as some people have claimed.
+6547,1,Offshore: The Dark Side of The Global Economy,"This is one of the most poorly written books I have ever read. It seems to be a compilation of news clips, some history, with pages and pages of endless, obstruse, mind-numbing attempts to tie corporations, offshore banking centers and governments into some sort of socialogical, philosophical analysis. Totally boring, informationally just about useless, wordy, diffuse, and a true waste of money and time....even a one star rating is too much....if you want to learn about offshore...don't try it here....."
+6548,2,Great simple case,"This is one of the best cases I have found for my needs. I was looking for a hard protective case for my new Nano that was easy to use and easy to take the nano out of so I can put it in my arm band for running. The click wheel cover is great and very easy to use. Hard to put in dock cable or accessories and 3rd party headphones with this case on. All in all, a good case."
+6549,2,Wahl Groomer,It is a well designed product. It arrived in a timely manner. The price was very good. I often shop Amazon.com because of the price point.
+6550,1,Won't buy another Cornwell book,"Blow Fly is the last Cornwell book I'll spend a dime to buy. I was impressed with the first books in the Scarpetta series, particularly the incredible research that went into them and Cornwell's fine writing ability. Now, I'm only disappointed and disgusted with the story and the characters."
+6551,1,The Worst Book Known to Man,"First of all Katharine and Bianca are two spoiled, self-centered, wenches. Katharine enjoys defaming others character,hearing her own voice, and inducing pain in her little sister while Bianca is a pathetic, whinny, future trophy wife, who has never had an original thought in her life. Katharine and Bianca embody two female extremes, extremes that no self respecting woman should ever be. The guys on the other hand... Are no better. Lucentio is your typical male. He wants a demure, innocent but dumb blonde bombshell while Petruchio in today's time would be considered a hick. His moto concerning women would be ""They should be barefoot and pregnant.""So if you enjoy stories that are insulting to woman, difficult to understand, and glorify hicks then this is the book for you, if not, don't bother."
+6552,1,Lionsgate has lousy customer service,"The NYTimes reported that Lionsgate was reissuing this marvelous movie with the missing 10+ minutes cut for no reason and gave a telephone/e-mail contact to receive an un botched copy. Two months and multiple attempts to contact them later, I am left with the expurgated version.Jane"
+6553,2,Got to Have a Zune Gear Bag,"Anyone with a Zune would really benefit from having this bag. It is perfect for packing it to carry along WITH it's accessories. It has a 'fitted' place for the Zune itself with other compartments for headphones, and any other necessities you want."
+6554,1,Wouldn't know,"I ordered this loong time ago, still have not received it. But when I had it years ago, it was a very interesting read."
+6555,2,Very Satisfied,I was skeptical at first about purchasing a used video online. But I had searched every pawn shop in town & couldn't find this movie. Service was fast & it doesn't seem to be any scratches Products is really in like new condition. My mom said even though she cant set her DVD to make the audio english she just reads the subtitles & she has still watched it about 10 times.
+6556,2,Better Than Expected,"Much better than I expected given the small amount of information available. The commentary is excellent but the pictures really make for a great resource. A large number of these images I've seen no where else while researching the Battle of Midway. I'd gladly recommend this book to anyone seeking info on the Yorktown, Battle of Coral Sea, or Battle of Midway.G. Alvin Simons"
+6557,1,Disappointed with product,"The copy of the 4 seasons I received did arrive in a timely manner, in a fancy blue felt box marked ""special edition"" however, in randomly checking out a few of the discs, all of them have closed captioning on the screen with NO way to turn it off, so you have to watch it through all that print, which I don't appreciate. Also, of the 4 or 5 discs I pulled, the first disc of season 2 either is faulty or has nothing on it, because my dvd player says loading then makes a lot of clicking noises like it's searching for something and nothing happens. All of the other discs I have tried work, as well as others I have, so it is NOT the player. I now wonder how many other bad discs and missing episodes I'm going to have. Hard to take when paying so much."
+6558,1,Received product but was broken,"I ordered this product and received it in timely fashion but the top door to it was broken. Otherwise, this product looks very cheap and poorly made overall. It does shuffle cards but looks like and is made like a cheap toy. Would not recommend to anyone."
+6559,2,Fun for all.....,My daughter got this for x-mas and she really likes it a lot. She doesn't use the table because it doesn't stay on very well. And to tell you the truth we had a hard time putting the table on. DUH!!!The press to make shapes does not work well at all. More play doh comes out of the sides then comes out in shapes. For the price kids will like it. But don't expect to much.
+6560,1,just really disappointing album,"This album brought the 1995 factice Ultravox Line-up. This is only factice because only Billy Curie comes from the original lune-up of the band. The rest is a patchwork of low musicians supporting Billy for this live. Well... as for the songs themself, the interpretations of tracks from Ingenuity are quite good because the members are the same... for the rest, this is just crappy So, consider this album as if it was more like a Billy Curie revival, but not an Ultravox live."
+6561,1,s*************cks,i sold this game for 4 bucks i wouldve ended up giving it away for 99 cents but unlike the other raters i cant say i didnt give this game a try
+6562,2,"N2deep been down,stayed down,still down.......","Containing some westcoast classics such as ""back 2 tha hotel"",and ""Toss up"" this is a nice addition to any cd collection.With a lot more songs on the album (that make up the best of n2deep)I think many of you will be surprised how much more the album is because of the songs that surround tracks 1 and 2... Starting with ""V-town"" feat. e-40 and B-legit,""California hottubs"",Parkin lot pimpin"",""The throw"" feat.Mac Dre,Latino velvet,and Jazz,last but not least what should be a new classic ""Wonderin"".... The 2 and only flaws on the record is that its missing ""Kick way on back"" (from N2DEEP the Golden State album)and ""You should never be broke"" (from the compilation tittled ""spread yo'hustle"")Now N2deep is back in the studio working on there 5th album and like everything before it I know it will be tight..."
+6563,2,a best buy!,"I have used a variety of electric shavers for more than 30 years; different brands at various cost.I decided to try this ""low price"" shaver after reading that Consumer Reports gave this electric shaver a high rating.After 3 months daily use, I very much concur. It is small, light weight, and has a two week battery that charges quickly.Buy it at $30. No need to spend more, you won't get more for your money."
+6564,1,Don't Buy,"Installed by our Plumbing and Heating Specialist. It did not work right out of the box. Set the Watchman at 45 degrees and it came on when the acutal temperature was above 50 degrees. Reset it for 40 degrees, and it still gave a false alarm. It has been returned. We will try a wireless therometer next (supposedly good for over 300 feet)."
+6565,2,Reaper madness,I just recently learned about Reaper and had to start from the beginning with season 1. This has become one of my favorite shows even though I didn't learn about it until it had been cancelled. You will love this.
+6566,1,Waste of paper,"I saw Suze Orman on CNBC in january 2001 screaming ""buy the QQQ's"" (a nasdaq-100 tracking stock) its down 50% in 3 months. This is the worst advice and the book is the same. I would have given zero stars but 1 is the lowest."
+6567,1,Definitely not the best of the Crystals,I am so disappointed that I paid money for this cd. I'm even more disappointed that I didn't read the reviews before buying it. I agree with the previous comment about the Michael Jackson impersonator though.
+6568,1,a sinking ship,this disc is another run of the mill from metallica who have lost there edge.they seem to be happy just getting over without taking any kind of chance's.lars&crew have had better days.strings can't hide lack of creativity.stick with justice for all and the lunch box.
+6569,2,Not just another mindless magazine,"This is my favorite magazine. I can hardly put it down, and it wish it was published more often. They have some of the best, most interesting articles around. In the last issue, they featured a list of the biggest ideas in history broken down for us laymen (ie: existentialism, chaos theory, etc.), plus an article on ""How to Become a Superhero in 5 Easy Steps"". The articles are fun and interesting at the same time. I recommend this magazine to anyone."
+6570,1,dont buy,"I usually like products from these guys but this knife sharpener did nothing for any knife that I used it on. After sitting there and going over and over with the action to sharpen the knives, nothing was coming to fruition. Now, perhaps under a microscope I could have seen improvement in the blade but not with my naked eyes or in using it."
+6571,1,Somebody has to tell the truth about this book!,"This book is a dreadful sham, and I am embarassed for the profession of physics that so many lay readers have been taken in by it (evidently). Hawking is by all accounts a brilliant researcher, but this book is no more than a dazzling mirage - there is no way that anyone could learn anything useful about physics or the universe. If all you want is to be dazzled by decriptions of black holes and the big bang then go ahead, but don't kid yourself that you understand any of it."
+6572,1,"My son grimaced, then laughed!","It could be that my son has a severe thumb sucking problem. I tried the stuff and it really is horrible! Every time I made the mistake of brushing my lips against my fingers, I had this very bitter aftertaste. However, my son grimaced for the first little while, then went right on sucking. He would suck at daycare and at night! He was so committed and persistent.Finally, we decided that we needed something more potent - the thumb guard. We shuddered as we shoveled out the $80. We hope to receive it in a day or two and will review it shortly.For those of you with children who have a severe thumb sucking problem, I do not recommend this product. However, it may be worth the $10 or so before you upgrade to a more costly option like the thumb guard. For those of you whose children have a problem that mainly just annoys you, then this should knock it right out.Final verdict:It is nasty for sure. It does not work for committed thumb sucking children."
+6573,2,Great for the price,I recently bought a sony clie peg-tg50 i love it. The resolution on the screen is unmatched by any other PDA in the price range. It is possible to listen to Mp3s on it but if you want to put a big collection on it you'll need to get another memory card. You can also watch movies but you need a very large memory card and even then you can only get about 1 movie on it. The bluetooth wireless only works with other bluetooth products. The included games are pretty fun. If you want to listen to music or watch videos on it i'd recomend getting a memory card with at least 128 MB on it. So it does get pricey. The one touch voice recorder thing is nice but the microphone isn't very sensative so it wouldn't be very good for the things you'd normaly use a voice recorder for but it can get handy for giving yourself voice messages for appointment reminders and such.

+6575,1,Who's Next? More like Poo's Next!,"These guys are the worst of the worst when it comes to music. One, I've never seen them on MTV, and two, the songs are awful, radio unfriendly, and above all untalented. Like Baba O'Riley, which is just the same note over and over and something about a teenage wasteland. Whatever. And Won't Get Fooled Again is very radio and MTV unfriednly.And Behind Blue Eyes makes me infuriated. Why did they take a Limp Bizkit masterpiece and turn it into crap?Avoid this like the plague."
+6576,1,Microsoft Zune 30GB,"I just got a brand new Microsoft Zune for Christmas. Only got to use it about 3 times before it stopped working. My wife also bought me all kinds of accessories to go with it. So, we have a lot of money invested in it. Apparently, there is a flaw in how the carrying case is made, and it makes it seem like you need to insert the power adapter into to port upside down. The port is not made in a shape that rejects the incorrect plug in, so the result is bent prongs on the port. Microsoft will not replace. I am out about $300."
+6577,2,Save the Last Dance,"It is a great movie. Julia Stiles is a wonderful actress, and she plays the part very well."
+6578,1,Lasted 18 months,Bought this for the men in the Training department to laminate checklists they fold into thirds. They used the thinnest envelopes and were happy with it until the spokes broke inside making it useless. They claim it was NOT Operator Error!
+6579,1,Lense placement,"I bought three similar styles to try out so I could find the easiest, most comfortable and best performing. This one was second best of the three. It works ok but is a little awkward to use. It is however, the easiest to squeeze. The ease to squeeze was the plus but the awkwardness takes that plus away. The price, like the performance, was also in the middle of the three but the shipping charge is more then 5 times more then that of one of the others and almost 2 times more then that of the third one. Shipping and handling cost alone on an item that weighs a few ounces is enough to stop me from ever purchasing this one again. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, never going to happen."
+6580,1,Zuh DRAST voo chee,"I couldn't get past the first five minutes of this. Pfeiffer's Russian accent was so horrible, and her lines so bad, I decided to watch Rocky the Flying Squirrel instead, so I could hear Natasha and Boris have an intelligent conversation."
+6581,1,Another badly produced album spoils a great artist,"Like Williams' other recent CD, RED DIRT, this is so badly produced, you have a hard time hearing some of the lyrics--which are the whole point of the exercise. Massively loud, bad guitar work hammers the rest of the mix. (Surprise: The guitarist did dual duty as the ""producer"" of this mess.) Andre Williams needs to dump these clowns and get the kind of professional production he enjoyed in the 1950s."

+6583,2,"Awesome, super clean feeling",I love this stuff! Your face gets super clean without getting dried out (I don't know how they do that!) and the bottle lasts forever. I have had a lifelong battle with acne (I'm in my 30s and the battle rages on) and this has been a tremendous help.

+6585,1,Disorganized and Inconclusive,"I received this book free from 'Publix Baby Club' and was disappointed by its layout and language. I love to read and wanted to be sure I knew all that I could about infant care before I delivered my first child so I was eager to take all I could from this guide. Unfortunately the book jumped around and didn't seem organized, and therefore I was turned off to it. The content isn't as straightforward or as clear as it could be. If this is your only ""manual"" for infant and childcare, then by all means use it in stride. However, for a cleaner, clearer, concise and more conclusive book (in my own humble opinion), I'd recommend gettingWhat to Expect the First Year, Second Editionby Heidi Murkoff, Arlene Eisenberg, and Sandee Hathaway."
+6586,1,Warning: Will NOT allow F6 driver install,"Of course, only microsoft knows why they force RAID drivers to be installed from a floppy disk.Most modern motherboards do NOT even have FDCs (including the one I am using to build up a Quad-core system).Trying to find SOME way of installing the RAID drivers, but this hugely expensive bit of retro-tech is not it.Sigh."
+6587,1,Not well edited - several of the step-by-steps didn't work,"Mr Cogswell seems to know his topic, but the editors/testers did a terrible job checking out the step-by-step instructions and examples: the diskette install didn't work (I was able to figure out how to install it manually on W95, though). Another example was on page 425: steps 3-5 were a copy of steps 3-5 from page 420 - that was fine on page 420, but made no sense on page 425. There were several other examples of this type of poor proofing throughout the book"
+6588,2,"AWESOME! Installed on a boat tower, totally water proof!","I installed these and two 4.2s on a boat tower using tower clamps. They are awesome at projecting the sound to be heard while being towed. They look great and are completely splash proof! I literally hose them down sometimes. ;)The bass response is pretty good for 6"" drivers and the claimed line-array really seems to work well! With the line-array you can really tell when you fall outside the coverage pattern.Once note: I blew the tweeter driver in one of them which looked to be like a factory defect. The diaphragm separated from a portion of the surround... something you cannot do by overpowering. Luckily EV has replacement tweeters and they're not that expensive. New tweeter installed and playing great!With these...I've got the loudest boat on the water! :)"

+6590,2,Excellent,"Arrived very fast. The book is wonderful too! It took me a couple of dozen pages to get into the rhythm of the style, but once I did I was totally immersed in the sea."
+6591,1,disrespectful and vulgar,"As a mother of a toddler, I really love reading books about motherhood. This book was a huge disappointment. Perhaps Lamott wants to be witty, but her voice is that of a whiny adolescent who thinks mainly about herself. Ridden with issues and vulgar language, she makes a mockery of those who take motherhood seriously. She has issues with men, with Republicans, with the world, it seems, as she describes her first year with her son. I could not understand her choice of vulgar words when describing her baby. She seems to have tremendous support from her family, friends, and church community, yet she never seems to revel in what she has been given. Perhaps in raising her child, she will receive some ""operating instructions"" that could truly enrich her life."
+6592,2,Good buy for the price,"Well, i just received this product in the mail after 16 days of waiting. I bought this product for the price it was available for ($5.99+) from a seller named igonemobile. Music from the earbuds are very clear. I just think that the earbuds are a bit too big, they can only be made to sit in your earlobes, some people like to have it all the way in. The package may say 809, which was originally intended for Samsung SGH-809 but works fine with Samsung Sync A707. Except for the delay in shipping, i don't have any complaints about the product, atleast for now."

+6594,2,A Rich Masterpiece,"""TROY"" is such a beautiful, rich masterpiece of an epic film (and Brad Pitt doesn't exactly hurt things either), and is well worth watching. Usually, these kind of 'old tales' when re-done for modern film are average at best. But this movie captures the essence of the tale in a gorgeous, rich piece of work with great acting and great directing that shows the depth and personalities of the characters involved. - Absolutely excellent!"
+6595,2,Great Product,"Cheap, fast shipping, great quality. Produced greater quality sound and bass than Jlab J2. However, these JBuds lack the attractive sleek design of the J2's."
+6596,1,Don't read this,"This book is so long and boring that it made me die a lttle inside every time i looked at it. The authors form of writing is so dull and bland that it makes me want to gouge my eyes out. This book is not worth reading its more useful as a doorstop. Watching paint dry is a more worthwhile activity. You would probably only enjoy this book if you are just as boring as the book itself. Overall i feel that this book is depressing and an utter waste of paper, life, and ink."
+6597,2,Jason & The Scorchers Best Bootleg you can get!!!,"While the recording quality of this cd varies from bad to acceptable, the charm of the performance is the real deal. But if you are already a fan of this highly underrated group, you know you really dont need hi fidelity to appreciate their power. Get it, enjoy it, and listin to it every once in a while. The recording came directly from what is rated as one of the greatest bootleg perfomances in history, and this recording (directly from the LP) includes scratches and clicks too!! Charming, and worth the price of admission."
+6598,1,The Prince of Pretentious does his Volume II,"There is something so painfully self-serving about the author and the way that he writes, that it is very difficult to get very far into the book-- it has to do with the style, the way things are worded, then stupid little expressions and most of all, the unbearably pretentious overall feel. Look for shameless self-promotion by the author all summer long."
+6599,1,disappointed,this item did nothing to educate nor inform the audience of the artist Vincent VanGogh as a person nor his work
+6600,1,Don't buy this garbage!!!,"Lucas tinkered with the original trilogy in 1997 for the Special Editions and 2004 for the DVD release, but that just wasn't enough so now he has gone back and altered the films again.....for the worse of course. On top of that all the picture and sound problems from the 2004 DVDs still exist making this blu-ray release the biggest joke from LFL yet. Vote with your wallet and don't give any more of your hard earned cash to such a substandard offering!"
+6601,2,Pretty Good,"Well-written true crime story of conspiracy to commit crimes for money - including conning a very naive girl into marriage (to an already married man), obtaining a large insurance policy on her life, and then murdering her in a horrific manner. Amazingly cold-blooder killers: however very little background history on them, which is probably why this book is a little brief. There was another story done, ""The Girl, The Con Man, and the Massage Parlor King"" by Gregory Curtis in Texas Monthly July 1976, and it is now in a book called Texas Crime Chronicles. This story gives a little more information, from a bit of a different perspective, if you are interested."

+6603,2,Best bird sounds for parrot companionship,"We have 2 parrots and 3 finches. In the early morning and at dusk the parrots, especially the female, have been restless. I've interpreted the behavior as their need and desire to ""gather the flock"", as they would do if in the wild. Ever notice how outdoor birds talk to each other in the morning and evening as they roost? So I got this CD and after waking them and giving them their morning peanut, I play the sounds. No more screeching. And the same in the evening, at dusk when it's time to roost, I play the sounds and when the CD ends, put their ""night night covers"" over the cage. They sure have responded with a calmer vibe. Hope it lasts!"
+6604,2,The best of choices for this opera,"This performance is excellent in conducting, staging, and singing, though Nucci is not up to the standard provided by Barstow and Domingo. It is a good compromise between original and final versions of the text. One may argue that Quivar is not ideal and that Jo is underpowered but both handle their roles adequately."
+6605,1,It had the potential,"I read the back cover and was intrigued to know more, but was soon disappointed. Although it says that Lt. Worf and Counselor Troi are doing the investigating, but the extremely annoying Wesley Crusher is brought in to the picture half way through the book and manages to screw up the rest of the story. Not to mention the ending was very predictable. Not at all like previous books by Vornholt. I recommend Genesis Wave, if you want something good by this author."
+6606,2,Freakonomics: A Rogue Economist Explores the Hidden Side of Everything,"Although this book was a required reading for my son's upcoming fall semester, I decided to read it myself. I thoroughly enjoyed reading about ""the hidden side"" of things. My son is now reading the book, and he and I enjoy discussing each chapter. Chapter 2 is my favorite, the one in which the author shows what the KKK and Real Estate Agents have in common. This book kept my interest from beginning to end. Enjoy!"
+6607,1,very dissapointing,"My wife bought this watch for me at COSTCO for a Birthday present. The band is very small and there isn't much in the way of adjusting it. Even at the longest adjustments I cannot get it over my hand. It seems the watch is deigned for very petite men and not for anyone over 5'10'' even though the face of the watch is fairly wide and thick. The case is beautiful and perfect in every way, I contacted Tissot to try and get a longer band, but they seemed indifferent to my problem and even questioned the fact that the watch I purchased from COSTCO was an authentic Tissot. I will never buy a Tissot watch again."

+6612,1,Junk watch.,"I have had three of these. everyone of them broke with in 3 months.first one, the digital went wacky and wouldnt work properly any more. i did a walmart exchange in it and got another this one had the analog adjustment pin fall out and fill with water. thinking it was just a fluke, i got yet another one via walmart exchange and again, the adjustment pin fell out.also the plastic adjustment bezel paint flaked off with in 2 weeks on ever one of them ive had. it wasnt a big deal because the color plastic its made of is the same color as the paint, but its still worth notingi love this watch and wanted very desperately for it to be good, but alas, it disappointed me not once, not twice, but 3 times before i finally said screw it and gave up on the exhanges."
+6613,2,"""The Dirt"" UK style","Here's a guy who paved the way for Motley Crue's excess and debauchery. A fun read. Gives you a glimpse into UK life during the 60's and 70's sex drugs & rock & roll age. Lemmy is the messiah of speed metal and death metal. It all started with Motorhead. Without Lemmy, we wouldn't have Metallica."
+6614,2,6-in 1 PC Card Adapter is great,This 6-in 1 PC Card Adapter is great for older computers with a pc card slot. I don't know why SanDisk is not offering this adapter anymore. I was fortunate enough to find it from an independant supplier who had 1 in stock. Manufacturers shouldn't be so quick to drop certain items from their line. There are still a lot of customers that need these items.
+6615,1,Clicking noise of death...,"I have the 60G version of this drive. I bought it for the small form factor (good).It never left the neoprene pouch and almost always sat on my desk. It was never bumped or otherwise mishandled.The first died just under warranty, and was eventually replaced by Apricorn. The new one died just OUT of warranty and I was told to go away. No consideration for previous problems, just ""too bad"".The clicking noise is a VERY bad sign.Never again."
+6616,2,Great tool for keeping organised.,After years of having keys thrown every which way in a box and taking long times to find we finally bought this key cabinet. Now we can find the keys immediately without searching. Love it!
+6617,1,Kurt Would Have His Revenge...,"Get Real! I started to read this book immediately after reading Come As You Are (which was absolutely amazing!) but had to put this down before I tore it up in disgust. It's information was from the very magazines and articles that frusterated Kurt with all their lies. Seems like the author did no investigating on his own what-so-ever. In fact he didn't even talk to the people that really knew Kurt in those days. No Chris, Dave, Courtney, producers, friends, etc. And the so called Quotes we're very questionable. He wouldn't say who they were from. I flipped through the pages and found one discrepancy after another. Christopher wrote like an enemy of Kurt's so if you want the truth, get a book like Come As You Are!"
+6618,1,A Fashion Statement,"All of the writing & criticism of Martin Amis has as much credibility as his screenplay for the film Saturn 3 with Farrah Fawcett, Kirk Douglas and Harvey Keitel. If you really must know what the moments gossip is in Manhattan restaurants, skip Amis's laborious attempts at writing and skim through the tabloid Talk to which he contributes. Though personally I think the glossy photos of Gwinneth Paltrow are better."
+6619,1,what i thought about this tent,i bought this tent brand new and had it for one year and opened it up one time to put it up and brought on a fishing trip and the string thats in the tent poles broke in 3 places. and the zippers are terrible always get caught.its roomy but its cheap!
+6620,1,Frisbees or Coasters,"I looked for reviews of these, and found I am not the only one having problems. I have used about 10 so far, and they are generally recording fine in iTunes. The problem is that my car stereo will not read them. The stereo works just fine with other brands of CD-R, but these just spin and spin until I get an error message. Next time, I will go back to the HP CDs and wait until they go on sale."

+6622,2,Enchanthing,"Carmody's Obernewtyn is a magnificent read. It's a ""young adult"" book that can be enjoyed be people of all ages. I loved it. In fact, after reading the copy I checked out from the library, I had to buy a copy for myself. I'll be eagerly awaiting Tor's release of the second book later this year."
+6623,2,Best Rap Album of all time,Look at the title. Its as simple as that . If tupac was still alive ther would be no Jay-z. No Ja rule. Just real hiphop . This album will never be topped from any rapper. RIP
+6624,2,Great for a persuasive writing prompt!,"As a third grade teacher in Illinois, my colleagues and I found this book not only an entertaining story, but a writing prompt for a persuasive essay that our students eagerly approached. To squish or not to squish! The kids just ate it up. We had quite the debate in our classroom!"
+6625,2,Brilliant yet disturbing,"Sonya Hartnett has written an insightful novel about the tragedy and bleakness of exploitive family relationships. The characters are believable and realistically portrayed. The parallels between the farm dogs and the family members are brilliant and thought provoking. The situation, tolerable only because the family members know no better way of life, becomes explosive with the arrival of Bow Fox. The novel builds slowly and steadily towards the climax. Superbly written and highly recommended."
+6626,2,Very good wallet quality leather,"I actually purchased a more expensive wallet as a Christmas present for my boyfriend. He didn't like it because it was bulky. So, I orderd this one, for less money, and he loved it. He is picky, so this is a really good wallet."
+6627,2,Great as replacement insoles,"They are very confortable, and they come with marks to help you cut them the size you need. After a day of use your feet will be very grateful.I bought them as replacement insoles for a pair of shoes I liked but I couldn't use because the former were destroyed. Well... this feel way better than the originals, and now I love my old shoes even more."
+6628,2,The Count is in the house,I love the Count. He was my favorite growing up and I can see my little 22 month old girl catching the count craze. Batty Bat is the best. My little girl gets so tickled at me doing the dance. Wonderful Cd.
+6629,2,Streisand:Live In Concert (2CD's) - Good,"This is a good double CD packed with alot of favorites. I liked slot of her ""dialouges"" between songs (her words & messages are invaluble & timeless). Il Divo accompanies her on several songs, like ""Evergreen"" (I would have preferred her to sing that one alone), ""The Music of the Night"" , & ""Somewhere"" (not favorable with Il Divo)"
+6630,2,I do like this book but....,"Yes, I really do like her writting style, especially the prologue. I was captivated throughout the book only because of her writting style and not because of the plot like I normally would with other romance books. I also like the attitude of the heroine. She is so confident (in her own term), down to earth, realistic and lovely.The only irritation I got from the book is the sound ""Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh"" and ""Ahhhhhhhhhhhh"" when Benedict and Sophie made love. It wasn't supposed to be there, right?? It seems to be the sound people often make when they have their first sexual encounter or when they were in high school. It sounds ridiculous to me, just the soft moan or whispers of each other's names would do. It just doesn't get along very well with the hero and the heroine and the mood of their love-making."
+6631,2,Cools and keeps the air fresh,"I really like this fan. I work upstairs in a loft with very little circulation and only one small window. Having this on (the ion setting) has made the difference night and day as far as comfort. I don't sit there sweating bullets all day, and it's not blowing around papers like a regular fan would."
+6632,2,The Melungeons: The Resurrection of a Proud People : An Untold Story of Ethnic Cleansing in America,"I found this book to be very informative. Finally, telling more of the true American History, that our school history books ""overlooked"". Some of the information is just theory, but still very thought provoking! I even found mention of several of my own ancestors! I highly recommend this book as reading, to everyone, even if your families are not from Appalachia, as mine are. What occurred in the past must never be allowed to happen again!!!! NEVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Read this and you will find mention of the paper genocide perpetrated by a racist named Pleckar and the 1924 so called ""Racial Integrity Act"" of Virginia. It is revolting, and yet still today, there are Native American Tribes in VA that are not recognized by our government, because of Pleckar's actions!!!!"
+6633,2,wonderful bike,I've using this bike for 8 months becouse i need to park far from the university so i need a compact folding bike and this one is just perfect for this. i'm very happy with this product it is durable and i did not have any problem with this bike. it is not heavy and it is easy to put together.greatproduct.

+6635,2,Excellent for nurses,This book is an excellent reference for nurses to use to communicate with their Hispanic patients. I had never taken any spanish courses before and the material in the book was easy to understand and the cds that came with it helped with correct pronounciation. I highly recommend it!
+6636,1,Too small to be useful,"Amazon depicts this as if it were 5-6"" tall. Instead it is a diminutive 3"", consequently hold very few peppercorns. I've never seen such a small mill, good for munchkins maybe not the rest of us. Thanks Amazon for not specifying the height in the description and providing an image that suggests a large size..."
+6637,2,An Excellent overview for the serious beginner.,"What this book gives is a broad picture of what you are trying to achieve when you play chess. It takes you above the region of move by move analysis and sets you the task of viewing the game as a strategic whole. If you can grasp this high level view of the game of chess, you have a better chance of improving your game. This is a book about the thinking behind chess and the strategy element, as opposed to tactics.Very short, very readable and entertaining, and a useful companion to quite a high level."
+6638,1,Works for about a month.,"Initially, I was thrilled with this phone. After a month or so, however, the reception deteriorated. Now there is a constant popping sound, which is incredibly annoying!!! It's so bad that I'm now shopping for a new phone. Don't make the same mistake I did -- falling for cool looks and a low price. Buy a different phone and save yourself the aggravation."
+6639,2,GREAT album!!,"This is a great album!! I just got it last night. I went home and listened to it right away! ""The Love Song"" is a GREAT song! Jeff Bates has a great country voice! ""Lovin' Like That"" is another great accomplishment! ""My Mississippi"" is a good song about him leaving and missing his home(Mississippi). All of these songs are great, and I highly reccomend it!!"
+6640,1,Lose the trim plate.....and you are OK.,"Ordered for my boat.This is a 4 pc set which includes the trim panel fitted with countersunk holes on either side.I was way disappointed in this product because nothing fits logically or securely until...............you toss out the trim panel. Lose the trim panel (which is how Sea Dog [pretty decent supplier of marine goods] shows this same product when they sell it) and suddenly the parts fit nicely and the unit will have a smaller footprint/visual presence. If you slide the receptacle through the trim panel in an attempt to mount it as shown in the picture, the receptacle does ....not.....fit snugly; securely, accurately.....at all. It so does ...not....fit nicley like the picture above shows.Using the product without the trim panel will deliver the fit and finish you probably have in mind.Given the poor quality vinyl seal plug that others have described, I will be trying to mount this item out of the sun somehow."
+6641,1,"What a mess, a sad ending to a great career.","I watched this movie with my jaw hitting the floor in disbelief. Altman's classics like Nashville had a rambling, ad-libbed quality that enhanced that film and gave great depth to the characters and their performances. Atlman will be remembered for the long leash he held his actors on. Prairie Home Companion has flashes of that technique but any sense of drama or comedy is missing from this rambling mess. The little structure the film contains is introduced by a just awful film noir character played by Kevin Kline. There is also a cheesy ""woman or dame in white"" which ""haunts"" the theatre and sucks away any momentum the stage performers come close to providing. The whole mess ends with childish ""Twilight Zone"" only not as good nor surprising twist. This is film is really nothing more than a great cast having a blast with one of the greatest directors. Unfortunately is pretty much un-watchable for anyone that was not involved."
+6642,2,Great age appropriate family movie!,"I bought this and other Herbie movies because I am tired of my son watching movies that are beyond him in age. Herbie is great, there are no swears, and everyone in the family can watch them and laugh. I don't have to worry about my son seeing things his brain isn't ready to process, and it's not as annoying as Nick or Disney Channels!"
+6643,2,Kids LOVE it,They are just simple Disney figurines but they were a VERY good price than buying straight from Disney and my kids love them. They asked for a Mickey Mouse Clubhouse toy and the one Disney sold was $50 and only came with Mickey Mouse this has been just as good because they have all the characters and they take them everywhere- even play with them in the bath.
+6644,2,Excellent,"Plug and play with no fuss.Also, for anyone interested in tweaking the settings for this mouse, go to your control panel and click mouse. There should be a list (if you are using a laptop there will be atleast two) then select this one and alter whatever you need. I have mine customized perfectly on a laptop running XP. I would buy it over again in a heartbeat!Hope this helps."
+6645,2,Well Done,"For one who is less than detail obsessed historically, I found Borneman's treatment of the subject balanced and the writing pleasurable to read. I also appreciated the attempt made by the author to separate fact from legend of various important figures of this war. For example: Was there a bit of the poltroon in Washington's character when he showed, at times, more prudence than courage? Was there a bit of the opportunistic scoundrel in Maj Robert Rogers who might have turned traitor had the offer been presented and price been high enough? Was General Wolfe really the genious he's been credited with being or simply fortunate that his focal directives were misinterpreted in the outcome's favor at key moments?All in all, this book is highly recommended."
+6646,1,"Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah!","I wont need 1,000 words to review this loooooong book. It was time consuming, to say the least and to think that Wally Lamb asks us to give him so much attention for such dribble makes me wonder about reading any more of his novels."
+6647,1,Liars don't get great jobs - what a concept,"This book is very similar to her nickel and dimed book in that Barbara simply sets herself up for as much failure as possible and then blames everybody for that failure.In this book she writes a fake resume and uses employment coaches and career counselors to help her try to get a job. We find Barbara lying, swearing and putting down the people who are trying to help her - making herself seem very unemployable in my estimation. She then blames the very same people for not GETTING her a job.How pathetic - in reality she was offered two jobs but they were beneath her. What Barbara doesn't seem to get is that she has to EARN a job and by lying on a resume is not a very productive way to go about it.Give this sad book a pass."
+6648,1,"Good multi, but tastes awful!","Having worked in a vitamin store many years ago, I am very familiar with Country Life products. They are an excellent product and I trust the purity and strength of their vitamins and minerals. This is a great product, IF YOU CAN GET AROUND THE TASTE! It is horribly bitter with a long nasty aftertaste. I will not order again as I threw the entire bottle out. Nature's Plus is also a fantastic product and they taste great! Just ordered them to replace the Country Life I tossed."
+6649,2,"Short book, tall ideas","While the book may be small, the ideas involved - individualism versus collectivism in society - couldn't be greater. It is particularly powerful the way it follows the central character as he comes to understand and appreciate individualism right before the reader's eyes. Hopefully some readers will make the same discovery."
+6650,2,This is NOT an Arditti Quartet cd,"The cd pictured and description is not an Arditti Quartet cd. The song titles listed are for a two cd set of Rasmussen and Bent Sorenson sq's performed by the Arditti Quartet. This is a suberb two disc set of Rasmussen, but it is not string quartets."
+6651,1,There's no substitute for a music instructor,"I'm just beginning bass, but I'm already a musician so I've got a little insight into the process of learning a musical instrument. I play horns, so I have to learn guitar techniqe and reading bass clef to learn to play the bass. This book, by itself, really won't help you much, there's really no substitute for getting a professional music instructor and taking lessons. Now, in addition to lessons, this book is a somewhat useful reference, but here are some gripes: 1) it's a think paperback, the way it's bound, it won't stay open to a particular page on a music stand unless you pretty much destroy the back, then you have a bunch of loose pages. 2) The stress here is on basic techniques, not reading music. The techniques are useful, but the book isn't particularly good at helping a novice learn to read bass clef notation and play the notes on the bass guitar."
+6652,1,Hoped For More,"While I appreciate the effort put into this book, it missed the mark. As the market is saturated with so many different books on this much discussed topic, I was hoping a blogger would come through with something refreshing and innovative. Unfortunately I found the writing style cumbersome at best, and the material was nothing noteworthy."
+6653,2,It works,"I really enjoy the flexability this ir extender provides. As long as you aim the remote control correctly, it works great. If you are a channel changer of great frequency, then be patient; you have to aim the remote carefully."
+6654,1,I need negative stars,"This is the second graphic novel I've needed negative stars to adequately express my feelings for in the last two months. I really was taken aback by Stan Lee's writing. ""He created my favorite comic superhero, Spider-man, how bad could this be?"" was my thought when I bought this. The story lines are really bad. I guess the best way to describe it would be to compare the stories to the mostly bad 70's comics. This isn't something that I'll ever reread due to the poorly written stories which is a shame since I respect most of Stan Lee's work. My true review of this would be about negative 2 stars. I hated it but I didn't throw it away which I was very tempted to do with Frank Miller's DK2 travesty."
+6655,1,Absolute junk,"As I write this review, I am also formatting this drive for the second time in one year. A hard drive should have a life of 3 - 5 years of CONSTANT use. I'm just getting to the ONE YEAR mark and it has failed on me twice, with a reformat and data loss being the result. The first problem came when the drive was just not accessible. This time, I/O errors and data loss. It's as though the unit was refurbished, then sold.Alot of reviews give this an excellent rating. They would not have done that with the unit I have."
+6656,2,A wonderful record,"Kelly Clarkson knows her audience better than the music execs. This is a wonderful collection of songs, and I love it. I had read articles about the differences between her and the execs concerning this album, with predictions that she was jeopardizing her career with this release. I bought it anyway, and glad I did. Bravo Kelly!"
+6657,2,Hallmark Card Studion 2006,Works great. Like printing options. Would like to be able to change graphics beyond clip art.
+6658,2,AWESOME!,Book came in reasonable amount of time and is in perfect condition! CD was included. Very happy with my purchase.
+6659,2,Complete overview of the field,"I am an undergraduate neuroscience major. I chose Principles Of Neural Science on my own, because I wanted a higher-level text than the course required. The textbook provides a good overview of the many different aspects of neuroscience, from synaptic transmission to perception to development. It is easy-to-read, not dense like some textbooks. I find it especially helpful to read a chapter of the text before attempting to dive into a research article. My only criticism is that it refers to material from other chapters as though it should already be learned, as though the book is meant to be read in order and not used as a reference. With 63 chapters, I am not sure this is appropriate. Nevertheless, I highly recommend this text."
+6660,2,One of the best books I have read in a long time!,"I bought the paperback because it sounded interesting. I have never really enjoyed westerns but something about the premise of the book appealed to me. Since starting Sunshine Rider I haven't been able to put it down. It's a terrific book full of humor, adventure and wonderful characters. The plot is full of original events and laugh-out-loud situations. This is one of the best books I have read in quite a while. I have 40 pages left to read and am now taking my time because I don't want the book to end. You don't have to read westerns or be a vegetarian to enjoy this wonderful story. You will be amazed by this sleeper of a book just as I have been."
+6661,2,Good speakers light is bright in the dark,Speakers sound fine for my needs (gaming sounds). If I need high quality audio I use headphones. The only complaint is that the power light is fairly bright.
+6662,1,This Book=ZZZzzz,"This book is so boring! It started off very good, but then it went some 150 pages with out a single interesting thing happening! The entire book focuses on whether the characters should tell about a prank that ended up killing someone. In the last 25 pages, i could not put it down, but other than that, it was a snore!"
+6663,2,My all-time favorite,"Pontoffel Pock is my all-time favorite Dr. Seuss video. I had the tape when I was young, and now want to get it for my 3 year old little boy. I still remember all the words to the songs, and I know he will love it...especially since there is a piano involved! I would recommend this video to anyone of any age!!"
+6664,2,"great buy, very satisfied","I searched these for some time since the salon wanted to sell me a different one for $120. Anyway, I decided to give this one a try. I use got2b crazysleek to help with heat protection and smoothness, and love the results. I don't flat iron everyday, but 2-3 times per week, and get what I want."
+6665,2,Jesus CEO,"This book is a very easy read, inspirational and helpful. Whether you are in business for yourself or working for someone else, the principles laid out in the book applies. I especially like the thought-provoking questions at the end of each chapter."
+6666,1,A piece of crap,"I can't believe any company would build a piece of crap like this. It should be illegal lol. Tuning it is darn near impossible, you have to reset it and press the scan button repeatedly and it never reacts the same way twice. It doesn't even indicate the station it's tuned to so the only way to find a station is to tune another radio then sync them to the sound. Frustrating! - the hot water you waste in one month while fooling with this thing costs more than it's worth. Just turn up your clock radio real loud and leave the bathroom door opened ..."
+6667,2,Bozo packs a punch,"This is a great old school toy. You never see these around anymore, but I remeber loving them as a child. It is so great for kids between 5 and 10 years old. They blow off some steam punching down old Bozo. It's very durable unless your kids decide to mount it and jump on it, that's not a good idea. But for punching and playing, he's a lot of fun."
+6668,2,Stock/Shipping to APO/AE Address,"I had no idea this was coming out on the 19th. I've spent the last couple of days reading the reviews especially those here with hands-on experience with the product, and reluctantly (because of the price) ordered my kindle. I was quite disappointed it won't be shipped until the 29th after my vaction ends here in the USA. Because Amazon won't ship to an overseas Armed Forces (APO/AE) address (thumbs down to Amazon) I'll acquire more charges (having family forwarding to me) and time waiting for it.I understand initially I won't be able to take advantage of the wireless ordering, but I'll still be able to buy online and transfer.I give it a 4 based on the reviews I've read and like many here I've been waiting for a device like this especially from Amazon whom I've ordered many books from."
+6669,2,SUMMER 2000 SOUNDTRACK,"This has to be the hottest soundtrack for the summer of 2000 wheather you love ballads or party jams this is for you.The good thing about soundtracks is you get to hear new joints from up and coming artists.And new artists with hot joints on this cd are Musiq which is a new male r&b group with there song ""Just Friends"", which is surely a great ballad, at first i said yuck but after hearng this song a few times it was a good slowjam.Another good song is ""No You Didn't Say"" which is one of the highlights of this album its performed by Kandice Love this is a nice song with great vocals.The next hot song is ""Get With Me"" performed by a new female group founded by Rodney ""Darkchild"" Jerkins, who call themselves Shorty 101, this is my jam a definite fast paced club joint.OTHER good songs are by Jay-z,Eve,Sisqo and Foxy Brown{she tears the song up},and Dmx, plus Janet has a hot joint pick this album up now its off the meter"
+6670,1,My boyfriend's back,"I have seen this movie quiet a few times. I mustsay that I didn't enjoy it to much. I usually onlywatched it when there was nothing on and I fell asleepwith it on. I never really got the idea, I new they werefriends, but when he came back, he wasn't her boyfriend.I liked the original my boyfriends back, it was in 1989.It starred judith light, sandy duncan, and jill eikenberry.I don't know if it was ever released on video, that movie wouldget 5stars from me, this version I would say only 2stars to benice."
+6671,1,Worst movie ever,"Only watch this movie if you are completely hammered. And even then it may not be worth the $5, so pick up a bag of shrooms to make this watchable."
+6672,1,Deathrider,"This is one of those albums that sometimes is trendy for people to claim a thrash classic. After the first track there is nothing really to praise whatsoever. I never really cared for this and much preferred ""Spreading the Disease"" and ""Among the Living."" And don't get me started on Neil Turbin, it's not like I really ever was a fan of Joey either, but this guy is so far from satisfactory. He sounds like a bad Paul Baloff, and since every thrash singer typically sounded like a bad James Hetfield, well you get the idea."
+6673,2,"The Path Between the Seas: The Creation of the Panama Canal, 1870-1914",Excellent reading for anyone interested on how/why/poltical intrigue and the problems involved with the building of the Panama Canal.
+6674,2,Good Continuation of The Millionaire Next Door,Would have given the book 5 star rating but Tom Stanley will never win an award for great writing abilities. The book could have been a lot easier and quicker to read if Stanley did not repeat things as often as he does. Technical content is great with studies explaining why SATs and college grade point averages do not accurately predict your net worth later in life. Over-all a good read.
+6675,1,Cornwell,I love Patricia Cornwell. I have all her books in hardback. I did not enjoy this cd at all due to the female orator. She showed no kind of emotion while reading. It was very flat and very boring. I certainly would never pick her to read a book of anyones. I actually threw it away and money doesn't grow on trees here.
+6676,1,Warning! Multiple Problems!,"Be aware! The tracks currently listed for this album as of 5/13/09 are incorrect! Amazon has this album confused for another. Just look at the cover art. Some of the correct tracks are there and they are not the same as the ""listen"" samples provided. I was foolish enough to buy this CD without carefully examining the cover. It should also be known that the sound quality of the ACTUAL tracks is absolutely horrible. Do not buy this disc!The correct track list is as follows:1. Just A Little Misunderstood2. Sparky Rides3. Red Ballroom4. Why Does It Go On5. The Day Will Come6. I Just Got Some7. Shake8. Bright Lights, Big City9. Keep Your Hands Off Her10. Ain't That Loving You Baby11. Don't You Tell Nobody12. Moppers Blues13. Just Like I Treat You14. Wide Eyed Girl On The Wall15. Got My Mojo Working16. Baby, Come Home17. Can I Get a Witness18. Baby Take Me"
+6677,1,its way cool for the first hour and then...,"okay when u get this toy its just like getting a real puppy. youre all excited...! so after about an hour or two of playing with it and tripping out on how 'new millineum' you truly are, well, lets just say tekno is limited. apparently it does dozens of tricks, but after figuring out 2 or 3 of them, you wont want to bother. and it tends to get stuck in corners! now my tekno happily sits on my living room table, turned OFF, staring at the wall. the one lasting thing about this toy is when friends come over they will dig on it just like you did when you first got it, then they will be bored by it and stop coming over to visit you."
+6678,1,Painfully hard to open,"There are two pieces to the outlet cover: back part replaces the outlet cover (and needs to be screwed on) and the front cover, which is released from the back cover by squeezing the two plastic pieces on the sides. The plastic side pieces are part of the back part, made of stiff plastic and extremely difficult to squeeze. This outlet cover also did not fit one of my outlets (it would not stay flush to the wall)."
+6679,2,A splendid concert,It was just great seeing and listening to Cat Stevens seeing and playing some of his old tunes. The setting is intimate which makes it more pleasant.
+6680,1,A Waste of Time,"I was so excited about reading this book after reading all of the great reviews amazon members had given it. There were a few ratings with a low score, but they didn't overshadow all of the 5 star ratings. This was the most boring, child-like, and annoying book I've ever read. The most traggic event on US soil is told through the voice of an unconvincing child. It was boring, somewhat confusing, and probably the worst book I've ever read! What a waste of time! You want to read a great novel? Read...I Know This Much Is True by Wally Lamb."
+6681,1,bad coffee,"I had this unit for 1 week and I tried many types of k-cup coffee pods and water supply from tap to filtered and also bottled.Not sure why all the good reviews (employees of various tiers?) but this machine puts out really bad coffee, tastes like diner coffee. I'm basing this review on Medium cup setting and only on what it produces not the convenience that the machine yields.You people have really low standards when it comes to taste of coffee!"
+6682,2,Heartfelt and Powerful,Marion gives a powerful firsthand account of what is was like to live through the Holocaust. Definitely a must read.
+6683,2,Wow! So many elements in this.book.....,"A murder mystery that covers so many topics: police investigations, the occult, divorce and the breakdown of the family unit, in depth character analysis, etc. Excellent twists and turns that keep you wondering till the very end of the story. A must read....."
+6684,1,"Thin on Plot, Wayyyyy Too Much Souling Searching","I found this book to be tedious and slow. The legal portions were elementary and obvious and nothing much really happens. The ""twist"" or ""reveal"" at the end was telegraphed from the next state. The final dramatic culimating scene near the end was tedious and comical. Half the book is about the emotional state of the lawyer, the protagonist or the victims. I didn't care!!Gave it one extra star because it was free. But this one (seriously!) made me question my due diligence method of downloading free books. I guess that's something."
+6685,1,A cheap copy,"This is a very cheap copy of the classic Luxo architects lamp. I could not figure out how to use the widget which would clamp it to a drafting table. But I did not care since the whole thing was flimsy, and I returned it."
+6686,2,Well written and concise without killing you with math,This book definitely will help expand your video poker knowledge and ability to pick good machines and proper plays. It touches on the progressives but for that I suggest Frank Kneelands book and for a more complete breakdown of all games math wise I suggesst Victor Royers Video Poker. However Linda Boyd has written a book that will give you the confidence and tools to have a better chance of winning some of the casinos money with educated decisions. The strategy cards you can take into the casino and they are excellent.
+6687,2,"Upbeat, Fun Girl-Garage-POP!","They may look tough, but these 5 gorgeous dolls from Oslo, Norway knock out some really sweet sounds. With guitars, drums & a powerful Hammond Organ they do tunes of love, romance, space travel & big monsters all rolled into one. From the hard (""Happy Days"") to the soothing (""Interstellar"") their music draws you in. They even turn a song about a ""Giant Godzilla"" into a love song in a manner that reminds me of a Japanese girl-group. (One minor error: tracks 4 & 6 have their titles reversed) For more, I highly recommend their 7"" EP, DESTINATION TEMPTATION, with 4 songs not included here (including my fave song of theirs, ""Star"") and some of the coolest packaging I've ever run across on a 45!"
+6688,1,surely it can taste better than this ...,"My insurance does not cover prenatal vitamins, so on the hunt for something I could afford I purchased these. I liked that they were natural, included ginger extract, and were one a day.But surely they can make a vitamin that tastes better than this? I've tried a range of other vitamins, and never have I had anything that tastes this bad. I don't understand the folks who said this doesn't taste bad - did they get different pills? Are their taste buds dead? Even the smell in opening the bottle is overwhelming. My current method is trying to cover the pungent taste (and aftertaste) with milk. Doesn't quite work, but anything to take the edge off.I do take them with the Mommy's Bliss Omega-3 DHA supplements, and those are quite nice."
+6689,1,Young Rip off is more like it.,"I pre ordered this dvd, I am a huge fan of the TV show ""Young Justice"". I am not a fan of being gouged by Warner Brothers.a measly 4 episodes? Had I known that I would have not ordered. Please avoid, they will release these either in a box set or the price will drop, save your money.Instead buy the ""Justice League"" full seasons."
+6690,2,excellent condition,i have enjoyed the dvd it came in great condition. Great price and great viewing it.
+6691,1,Not up to Fodor's usual Standards,"I would recommend this book only if you are looking for information on places to stay. If you already have accomodations booked, save your money. Restaurant and sightseeing information is readily available at the airport in numerous free publications. The book appears to have been thrown together with a lot of generic Carribean information included that does not pertain to Aruba. For example, the book tells you to use only bottled water and to avoid ice. This is ridiculous on Aruba which has an excellent public water supply system."
+6692,2,Great product for the price!,"Though it cost me less than $10, this pen has become my cleaning item of choice for several digital cameras and HD video cams. The ability to remove all dust, in both humid conditions where it would seem to not want to stick to the brush, and dry conditions when static electricity would seem to make it want to stick ot the lens, has been remarkable. The felt end also does a fantastic job on slight smudges that I'd normally have to use a wipe on. I'm very happy with this."
+6693,2,Dark and beautiful...,"Ruffian is perhaps the greatest racehorse of all-time. I have all of her races and have watched them repeatedly. It never gets any easier to watch the Great Match Race and this dramatization doesn't soften the blow AT ALL. The last thirty minutes of this film are incredibly difficult to watch. Horseracing is as dark as it is beautiful and Ruffian was the darkest and most beautiful of all.This DVD includes some excellent bonus features including nearly all of her races in their entirety (including the Match Race), an interview with Nack, a documentary featuring Jane Schwartz, Frank Whiteley, Jacinto Vasquez and others, a tribute comparing Ruffian and Barbaro etc. Worth every penny and more."
+6694,1,time line challenged,"I had problems with this book early on, I slogged on...page 77..Mrs. Purvis is shot, her heart is nicked---coma----page 173-TWO days later she is home and doing needlepoint...page 178 I quit--I coulnd't finish the book---"
+6695,2,Crocs are great,I love Crocs.They are tops and everyone in the family wears them.Best thing since apple pie.I will wear them always.
+6696,2,Definitely two thumbs up!,The message the story subtly tells is wonderful and my campers loved the personalities of the animals. This is a wonderful book to start off a lesson about the delicacy of nature and our relationship to it.
+6697,1,good story BUT bad disc,"the whole series is great. great storyline and action. but this boxset volume, as one of the reviewer mentioned is faulty. in vol. 5 - episode THE HAIR OF THE DOG is soundless! the entire episode is affected. it was a good one too. did an exchange with AMAZON, still the same episode is soundless.:("
+6698,2,Gangs of New York,"This is an interesting history of gangs in New York City from the mid 1800's to I believe somewhere around the early 1920's. Talks about the many street battles and colorful characters, some of which seem to border on being folklore. These guys were legitimate hand to hand tough guys, not like the later weasely mafia types that would have somebody else shoot you in the back. These guys would fight it out themselves in the streets, in fact some of the guys talked about in this book were among the top bare knuckle boxers of their day and are featured prominently in a history of bare knuckle boxing book that I have."
+6699,2,"Some people can't enjoy, but other can enjoy","I listened to this album for the first time, I was very disappointed at it. But I listened to it again and again, I found it was very interesting and wonderful. Her voice is so unique that some people don't like it. But I think this one is a good CD for those who don't know about opera because there are many essential arias for coloratura by Mozart."
+6700,2,Inspiring....power of hope and faith!,"Thank you Trevor Wright and crew for this documentary about the struggles of people who, unfortunately, have to live and work in the Cambodian garbage dump! You offer a small ray of hope to an unknown part of the world where hopelessness is so pervasive. I hope this film spreads far and wide, and inspire others to help people in less fortunate situations all over the world. Thank you!"
+6701,2,Amazing Show!,"This is one of my favorite shows, and one of my favorite seasons. The combination of Drama, Comedy, and Science fiction is outstanding!"
+6702,1,The economic message is overshadowed by his ego,"This got to be the most egotistical and arrogant book ever writted. The author in about every paragraph, uses words like ""I"", ""me"" and when refering to another person and himself, he always puts his name first. Bhagwati loves to name drop, he lists people he has met as if its a popularity contest. Bhagwati's writting will confuse you and annoy you. Throught out the book he loves to advertise the papers and studies he has written, they have no relavence to the topic at hand except maybe to help him sell more books."
+6703,1,died on second use,"My roommate used this the day after I got it in the mail. I was the second person to use it and it no longer worked. The light wouldn't come on, the plates wouldn't heat up, etc. Thankfully, Amazon had no problem with me returning it. If yours functions, it seems like a good value with the free hair products you get with it."
+6704,2,Fine pics,This is a great little camera. The shots are easy to take and view. Great price. Thank you.
+6705,2,So far so good,"I put the dehumidifier in the seldem used bathroom in my basement. It keeps the whole basement dry and the included hose allows me to drain it straight into the shower drain so I just ""set it and forget it"".It is not silent and removing the bucket is just a little bit akward."
+6706,2,Merci à Amazon!,"J' ai offert ce C.D à un amateur qui le recherche depuis longtemps , cet article est introuvable en France.Je ne peux donner mon avis sur le produit , cependant je félicite l' expéditeur pour la rapidité et le soin apporté à l' emballage. Merci"
+6707,2,A Source of Inspiration and An Example of Courage,"Having read both Gari Carter's book and some of the reviews, an Eastern expression comes to mind, ""there are many truths and many realities."" Gari's book cannot be all things to all people, but for the reader capable of being inspired by one woman's courage and able to use this book as a source of inspiration and as a resource book, it is wonderful. Having initially read the book in 1996, I continue to use it on my own journey of healing and am grateful to the author for sharing her story."
+6708,1,girlfiend broke shoe in 1/2 hour,"I didn't expect the best shoe set for $29.99, but I certainly didn't expect my girlfriend to break it on the third game. I'd like a replacement set by Monday July 25th."
+6709,2,in your face nazis,This band is saying what they believe and love they're insane matando gueros is just a great title name english is killing whites.Not racist just saying it's in you're face nazi punks haha.This to me is their most brutal record ever get it now not a big fan of them but it's brutal!NAPALM DEATH said it best F*CK OFF NAZI PUNKS!!!!!
+6710,2,The best! I had to watch the last of it with the lights on!!,"This is my favorite movie of all time. It all begins when Lori (CURTIS) is babysitting 2 kids when psycho serial killer Michael Myers murders her friends and comes after her. I loved the ending and the rest of it. About half way through the movie, I got so terrorfied that I had to turn on the lights! This movie is so horrorfying, that it still grips you with fear long after the movie is over!"
+6711,2,Great product,This battery charger works excellent. it works with 115Vac or 220 Vac for other countries. I took mine to South america and had no problems using it.
+6712,1,just ok,"Diana Krall has always been a Artist that I respected Her talent,but I never quite got the full buzz over,but over her past two albums I'm really lost now,because Her voice doesn't work well in a bigger band enviroment. She is better suited in a smaller unit that allows her instrument of voice to be heard&given that feel she is known for doing in her material. there is way too much going on in the overall sounds&they don't blend with her vocally enough. She doesn't have enough in her Chops to keep up with what she is trying to pull off here. I applaud the effort,but she has to get back to what best compliments her stylings."
+6713,2,Simple but effective bluetooth,"This is one of those headsets that you either love it or hate it. I personally love it. It fits in my ear perfectly even without the hook and I can even shake my head pretty violently and it won't budge. It has great reception and has very clear call quality. People I talk to say that they cannot hear any background noise hardly at all. The battery life is great and will last a very long time on stand-by mode. Alot of my friends have tried it out, and it will not stay in their ears at all. I guess it just matters whether or not you have the right size of ear, but if it does fit in your ear good, you won't be disappointed."
+6714,2,Sparked my Sanford book crave. READ IT!!!!!!!!,"This was the first book i read by sanford, and i have since read two others, and plan to read all of the Prey series books. It is full of action, suspense and thrills, and shows you that police work is not as easy as we think. His charachters, especially Lt. Davenport are well rounded, not too perfect and not totally unbeleivable. I read it in two big gulps (days) and had to force myself to put it down."
+6715,1,DO NOT BUY,"Apparently Skullcandy puts design and how the earphones look first, quality later. Like everyone else said these broke within a week. The right earbud started losing sound and within 3 weeks there was nothing coming out of it, and the left one started fading too. USELESS."
+6716,2,Fun for dinosaur lovers,"Being an aunt who spoils her nephew, I had to get this for my nephew, Dominic. He loves anything that has to do with dinosaurs, and has since he was less than a year old. He's had this toyset for several years and still plays with it. The carrying case prevents pieces from getting lost."
+6717,2,Pretty good album,"The album itself is a double CD, so it does take away from some of the better songs on the album, but overall it's a good album to add to any collection. The best songs of the album stand out whereas the lesser of the songs as not as far off from the best songs."
+6718,2,Love it,I really loved it ---I can see better out of the car window and it stay the same height -- Its very well made and it looks very nice
+6719,2,A must have for Hunters in the N.E or any place else !,"This book was very informative and entertaining at the same time. I could not put the book down once I started to read.A must have for the average hunter, with out the money to pay for a guided hunt. The Benoits and the author did a excellent job putting this book together. Can not say enough about how detailed they got in explaining, why they did things, how they did them, the cloths they used, the choice of guns and loads etc."
+6720,2,A+++,"Stacie Orrico is one of the best singers in the world today. This is her best single to date, check it out now!"
+6721,2,Delicious!,"I bought this because I am vegan and not because the product is gluten-free. The only other vegan Mac n' cheese substitute I have found/ tried are the Roads End products. My husband is hard to please when it comes to vegan cheese, and he hated the Roads End stuff but loved this. I do too--it's way better than Roads End stuff. It has a delicious flavor that is not at all spicy. Also much easier to mix up than the Roads End.Not that expensive at all. I'll definitely be buying more. Love it!Btw the people adding tuna and chicken are missing the point of eating a vegan meal!"
+6722,1,I'm so bored,"The refrain of this book - ""I'm so cold"", ""I'm so hungry"", and I was so bored! What a waste of time this book was! Father & son walking down The Road in an attempt to find a better place. Minimal interaction with other humans and the end was a cop-out.The author enlightened me about nothing."
+6723,1,vastly over-rated,"I write this review as an avid reader forced to endure this book in school.Thoough I have read some long books,never one that seemed as long as this.As I suspect of most of Dickens' writings,it is nothing but page upon page of plot line and moralizing.There is no interest in the characters as they seem to serve no other purpose but to fit in the neat little events that shall teach us Something.Bah."
+6724,2,CREAM,"CREAM... what can you say about this group that hasn't already been said! Great performances, Great quality for DVD's. Well worth the low price for this item. You'll get your money's worth after just watching it one time!"
+6725,1,What Hurts About Cell is He Was Broken IN Package...,I do not Reccommend This Figure At All...First of All When I first Opened the Blister to Take Cell Out I was Expecting something Great Because He had also Arrived With Vegeta...Vegeta Looks and Performs Rather Well Despite his Right arm Popping off Every Once in awhile...But Cell's Right Arm Was Already Damaged Before I even took it out! The Peg Holding his Arm had been Snapped in Half... The Other Half was still inside the Figure...I Made the Effort to E-mail and See if They'll At Least Send me a Replacement Because Like I said... He isn't Much Used to Me Broken Like this...I do hope They Will Send me the New One... Because this Really Hurts...Only The Second time I've Ever Bought anything from Amazon.com and It's been partly Ruined From a Defective Figurine Broken Before I even got it out of the Blister...How Sad is that?
+6726,2,Cars - Fun for everyone,"I absolultely love this movie. It is fun for all ages, 2 to 102. It also makes you feel good and has a great message of how friends come in all shapes in sizes and no matter where you are in life true friends will always be there for you. That's what Cars is about. It's about slowing down every now and then from our fast-paced, rushed world and really look at the important things in life and how beautiful life can be. It's comical and heart-warming. My favorite character is Mater, the old, rusted tow truck from Radiator Springs. He is instantly likeable, with his cheerful demeanor, and comical way of life; a character that sees the good and fun in everything and everyone. Pixar has always done great with their films and this film is especially great. Two thumbs up for me. I recommend it to everyone."
+6727,2,This Miltary Action Book was Great!,Talon Force goes to Central Asisa to takedown the headquarters of some rouge siceneists. These rouge terrorists have a laser armed satlite and have already used it on some targets. I hope the next book is great as well.
+6728,1,Disappointing product,"I used this product in my kitchen. Twenty days past the warranty expiration, the picture went blank and the unit made a buzzing noise. Customer service referred me to a service center, for which I would need to pay $65 for a diagnosis. Very disappointing for a $200 tv/dvd."
+6729,2,A wonderful look at all aspects of the Wright Design,"As a 13 year old Wright fanatic, i have read books all about different aspects of the Frank Lloyd Wright Design. One book for furniture, one for the house design, one for the glass, one for the Usonian concept. Upon opening this book I didn't expect to find anything different. Concentration in one area. What I actually received was a complete look at the Wright design. Instead of buying seperate books, I could find out all about Wright aspects in this one book! This book is a must have for any fan of Frank Lloyd Wright!"
+6730,1,Disappointing,"Let's get this out of the way quickly. Those seeking masterly interpretations of these often recorded songs (R Strauss' Four Last Songs) need to visit the Sinopoli/Dresden with the diamantine Cheryl Studer. It does not get any better than that. Besides, you get unparalleled accounts of Wagner's Wesendonk-Lieder and a Liebestod (from Wagner's Tristan und Isolde) for the ages."
+6731,2,The Best Available Reference in English,"This book's low average rating is, unfortunately, a reflection not of its quality, but of the error of a previous reviewer whose mistake was to expect the book to be a basic grammar rather than a reference grammar for more advanced students. Put simply, there is no better Latin reference grammar available in English. If there is, I am not aware of it. This is the only Latin grammar that rivals Smyth's Greek Grammar in its depth and clarity. That said, students should note that this is a thorough descriptive reference grammar, not a grammar meant to teach Latin or to provide the intermediate student with a basic reference. Those seeking a simpler reference more suitable to the intermediate level may benefit from Bennet's grammar of the same title."
+6732,1,this is so bad,"songs 1 thru 5 are somewhat upbeat (with the exception of throwaway #2) but the songs are boring. the rest of this album is so unlistenable it is painful. lyrically and musically, this album is awful."
+6733,2,Absolutely chilling; I've read it twice already,"I can't say whether I believe every story in this is true, but all are scary, compelling, and definitely make you want to avoid graveyards.I've read this book twice already. It is absolutely one of the best ghost books ever written."
+6734,1,Doesn't work with Tivo,My husband bought this item to work with our Tivo and it doesn't work with it.
+6735,1,Inpatient Obstetric Nursing,"Gave some interesting and informative questions and answers, but not what I expected. Would be ok to refresh on questions only."
+6736,2,Met expectations,I did considerable research before choosing the Andis RC-2 Ionic 1875W Ceramic Hair Dryer for my wife. She wanted a dryer that was easy to store and that would dry her hair quickly. So far it meets all of her expectations and we're very satisfied. We are being careful with the retractable cord as others have suggested.
+6737,1,ATTENTION BUYERS!,"THIS IS NOT A DIFFERENT SCOOBY DOO FILM, IT IS ONLY SCOOBY DOO AND THE WITCH'S GHOST WITH A NEW NAME. DO NOT PURCHASE THIS TITLE UNLESS YOU WANT SCOOBY DOO AND THE WITCH'S GHOST BECAUSE YOU DON'T HAVE IT!"
+6738,1,Priestess of Avalon,"I am very diappointed with this book. With each page I turn, I get the impression that I have read this book before. It is very similar to the Forest House."
+6739,2,good price,found out we already had this game - sent the duplicate over to the kids' dad's house - now they have one in each home!!
+6740,1,no continuity after computer sleep,I bought this item on amazon. After the computer sleeps - my devices which are plugged into this hub do not register - ie mouse & keyboard. If i unplug/replug the cables they will *usually* come back. If i un/replug the hub-to-computer line i may lose one device and get back another. Its a real mess and renders the thing an irritating little box. I had a similar problem 2 years ago with the same brand and i suppose im a glutton for punishment - i figured the problem could not possibly have migrated to a newer version of this device. Its crap - avoid!
+6741,1,Wires Are Too Thin For RF Use Up to 10 MHz,"I bought some of these, but when I got them, they worked good, but somehow the wire was thin. I tried to use them with my antenna experiments, but they were kinda lossy for low frequency to HF use. They come in handy for quick connections to shortwave radio antennas that cover from 1 kHz to 10 MHz. After 10 MHz the signalmay become lossy. They work good for temporary installations and breadboarding, engineering, and for power supplies, and battery connections. I would buy them again if I had the money, they work just as good as regular 24 gauge wire, but I would not recommend them for voltages higher than 12 volts. I would recommend types that are more thicker than these stranded pieces of spaghetti."
+6742,2,Keys to Secret Sacred Information,"I am fascinated by ancient Hawaiiana and have been looking for information connecting the ancient Hawaiian language and spirituality to the ancient teachings and culture of Lemuria. Well, this book does it. Simply and clearly written and full of useful illustrations. I am very pleased . . ."
+6743,1,I don't think I read the same book as the rest of you!,"Sorry folks, I agree with David Gates. An interesting idea but sloppy writing with an author in pretentious mode often more interested in showing his own ""intelligence"" than in constructing a fluid or challenging narrative. I felt like joining Vikram and was delighted to finish this book! Only buy it if you are prepared to wade through some pretty turgid stuff."
+6744,1,"Good concept, but it's just a disappointment","The scanner has to be perfectly lined up with two tiny triangles and on a flat hard surface to work (according to the instructions). What little kid can do that??? We are very disappointed, and our son get very frustrated that the scanner does not announce the correct items. In my opinion, this toy is really a piece of junk."
+6745,2,nice album,"nice anniversary album, sure do miss mike's youngers days! huge fan of his though, if you're a fan then you'll prob wanna pick this up but for most of us, we already have the original recording lol! go pick this up if you want, it's still nice to listen to."
+6746,1,Highly Biased,I was highly disappointed with this Luther biography. The author was so blatently biased that it was difficult to know what was accurate. I fear that this depiction of Luther's life may have been missing key elements in order to create a slant. After reading this book I have learned some aspects of Luther's life but am fairly certain they don't paint the full picture of Luther. I am a Protestent yet I was still offended by the derogatory remarks toward the Catholic church. I certainly do not recommend this book.
+6747,1,A plea for restoration.,"This comment is primarily for the benefit of those who came of age after the era of black-and-white television. In my opinion, the picture quality in this set ranges from fair to horrible (black tones totally gone). Even in those portions I rate as ""fair,"" much of the background detail is indistinct or muddy. The sound quality generally is decent, however. Despite these deficiencies, this 100 episode set is worth $11.49, the steeply discounted price. As others have noted, the original commercials are a nice bonus.It is a shame that so much of our television heritage has been allowed to degrade to this state. If you would like to see what a black-and-white television program of the same era looks like when properly restored, watch ""I Love Lucy"" on DVD. Almost as good is ""Perry Mason."" Given that ""The Adventures of Ozzie & Harriet"" ran almost three times longer than ""I Love Lucy,"" let's hope that this series will be properly restored and offered in season sets."
+6748,2,Nice for kids,"My niece just loved it, I bought for her birthday and was the best choice. It's a very good quality cartoon, the kids have fun and learn in the same time."
+6749,2,works great,good product and works well. Great value and came with nice carrying case. Its a bit heavy but other than that its great.
+6750,2,PIXMA Alli In One review,"HiI have been using the unit for about a month now. The only problem I am having is that it feeds paper crooked. If you put the paper in straight, when the first sheet feeds it tilts all of the remaining sheets in the hopper to the side. After the first sheet, they all feed through at an angle. Is there a fix foir this? I have not yet contacted Canon.Other than that, the unit works very well and I am quite pleased.Sean"
+6751,1,Disappointing....,"I have read many, many books on pet bereavement and loss and I have to say that I'm a little disappointed with Mr. Sife's book. It reads like a monotonous textbook and lacks feeling. I've read other pet bereavement books where warmth and understanding are felt, right from page one, but this book is not like that. There are other pet bereavement books out there that are much more helpful."
+6752,1,One of the worst movies I have ever watched,"Just awful, right up there with the ""Good-bye Girl"" and ""Space Balls"" in terms of bad movies.DO NOT rent this movie. You will regret it if you rent it."
+6753,2,The ex-Yessman takes his B3 on the road with a new band,"David Foster, who wrote a few tunes on Yes's ""Time and a Word"" is here on bass with Tony Kaye on the B3 and it's the performance of their lives captured live at the Rainbow. A brave but good way to record a debut album, album was produced by Jon Anderson and the cover drawn by Roger Dean, just like Yes. It gives you feeling that Tony left Yes on good terms when Rick Wakeman stepped in."
+6754,1,won't power external hard drives,"this thing will work fine with flash/thumb drives, but I have 2 different kinds of hard drives (iomega, WD in a generic case), and it refuses to power either of them. Dreaded ""supply exceeded"" in both cases.WTF is the use of having a *powered* USB hub, if it doesn't provide enough juice to do the job?I got this thing free from a former job, am throwing it away. Not worth the price, even if it's free."
+6755,1,This bag is a fake!,Please research the brand and know what to look for when you buy designer bags. This one pictured is a fake. Louis Vuitton did not make this bag and does not hang any tags from the bag like this. The speedy does not have any pockets on the side either.
+6756,1,Van Dissapointment,"After Van Damme set sail in Timecop,a box-office smash his career was exactly where it needed to be.I thought only his flicks could get better,but after Streetfighter I thought differently.He should of let Stallone take the job,just like Judge Dredd,Streetfighter is a video game movie type disaster.Van Dammes acting was rusty and his fight scenes looked like special effect errors that needed to be edited.Now with it on DVD the price makes the movie look great,but in reality it's garbage.I personally love Van Dammes hard hitting action flicks,and I ain't putting him down personally but this movie has serious problems and a headache of a storyline."
+6757,1,See a community theater production instead,"I bought this cd wanting to love it. Acquaintence Joe Carney plays Jesus in this horribly-cast abomination of a fun musical. But even he is miscast to the point where I must wonder who auditioned for this show? To choose this lot of no-talents, the casting directors must have been faced with a very bad turnout. These kids can sing to the same extent that Brittney Spears can sing - well enough, but not well enough to be called good by any stretch of the imagination. Nasal voices, over-annunciation, and bad reading (it's not acting, it's reading) make me wish I had bought Godspell 2000 instead."
+6758,2,Cactus Juice Eco-Safe Spray,"Cactus Juice is a non greasy spray with a non offensive, almost pleasant smell. Most importantly: It works!My husband & I often like to relax outside on our backyard patio with a cool beverage during Summer afternoons and early evenings to take in the garden views, the fresh air, and watch the bird activity around our woodland water feature until the sun goes down. Unfortunately, mosquitoes and other flying insects would become bothersome which detracted from our otherwise enjoyable time so I researched various products & decided upon Cactus Juice as an eco-safe alternative to other insect repellants on the market. We find, to our relief and delight, that a light spray application rubbed onto exposed skin areas is all it takes to keep those pesky critters at bay for hours."
+6759,1,Very Attractive but Didnt Last Long!,I bought this Cake Taker in a set that came with a rose bundt pan and I have used it a handful of times...I love the way it looks and since I usually take the cake to family or friends..I always come home with no cake to spare...so its not freshness that I am most concerned about...the acrylic seemed pretty sturdy but just the same..it cracked..and I hand wash and didnt drop it...I suspect a warm cake must have done it...none the less since I didnt have a receipt..no store will exchange it..waste of good money!..Very Disappointing since I have a lot of Nordic Ware Products and love them all!
+6760,1,Not to fond of this book.,I ordered this with the thought it would be more helpful to me in teaching Shelby sign language. But it really disappointed me. I would not recommend this book to anyone.Linda DeGravelnm67@yahoo.com
+6761,2,Fast Delivery,"As usual, the delivery and processing time was incredibly fast. This product came in time for Christmas time. Would definitely go through this company again. The DVD's is contained in a nice box set. It was shrink-wrapped. It was in excellent condition."
+6762,1,Everything about this sock is bad.,The description says these socks are seamless - they absolutely are not. I had a big seam going down every toe which caused constant rubbing. These socks are so uncomfortable and rubbed my toes/toe webbing so much that I had to take them off after 20 minutes of use (my toes are now sore). I *highly* recommend you pass on these socks - I will be returning mine.
+6763,1,daisy 15xt,mine was ok the first few times i shot it and after that it was s*** the peircing screw broke it was inacurate as hell i regreted spending money on it i recomend a crossman c11 or umarex or somthing
+6764,1,Annoying to read,"I can't even get past the first few pages, and I've tried many times. The ""EVEolution"" jargon, or maybe it is just Popcorn's style is so annoying. Not only does she trash the English language, most of the language is so trendy that it just turns me off. This one is heading for the trash."
+6765,1,exercises not too easy to do properly and the green one is too easy,The softest one (green one) is way too easy to bend for an adult man or woman--maybe it is useful for someone who is terribly injured. Even my 7 year old boys find it too easy too play with. The others are ok but I found the description of the exercises recommended a bit short of my expectations. I had difficulty figuring the movements from one position to another.
+6766,2,More than Sandwiches,"This is a miracle machine. Sandwiches made on it are great. Even more, you can grill meat, heat hash brown patties (frozen!) and much much more. I know this sounds like an ad--it's a rave review, though."
+6767,1,Not what I expected,"I was disappointed in this book when I received it. I was looking for ways to make my H.S. History class more exciting, but I found that most of the suggestions in the book were geared more for the elementary school levels. The format of the book is set-up more like a comic book than an academic book and is filled with cartoon drawings and funny sayings. Although it was fun to read, I really did not feel that I acquired any useful knowledge from it1"
+6768,1,Troy Built Trimmer,The product did not come when stated. Only after my requesting info did I recieve an update as to delivery date status. I finally recieved it a week later.
+6769,2,One pretty good dance cd,I enjoy the way the A Teens take the great music of the original ABBA and put it to new modern dance beats
+6770,1,"Boxy and unflattering fit, uncomfortable",This was on my wish list but unfortunately it fits very boxy around the entire body and is uncomfortably tight around the arms.
+6771,2,it delivers what it promises,"I read alot about mp3 players for quite awhile. I highly suggest cnet.com for great unbiased reviews. I LOVE my iclix. The only negative about it is it is only 2GB. Other than that, it does what it promises. The sound is great (that's with the earbuds that come with it) and it CRANKS. I have used the voice recorder a couple of times, and it is decent. The FM tuner is great when you are sitting still. I actually enjoy the flash games too. It downloads songs very quickly and is very easy to navigate through the system. This is my first player, and I expect to use the full amount of applications. I can't imagine needing more than what it comes loaded with."
+6772,1,A couple bucks I could have used elsewhere,"Thought I could use it in my car, but the one I got points to or away from all kinds of unseen objects. Even in the house it's drawn more to the clock radio than Polar North. Not particularly useful for me."
+6773,2,Love It,"The off major networks seem to have been doing a very good job the last few years giving us some shows that are well worth watching, Monk, Damages, The Shield and others. Burn Notice is one of those shows you should watch.It revolves around a former US agent, played by Jeffrey Donovan, who is no longer needed by the government and is summarily dumped (burned in the spy business) and then starts doing PI type work while trying to figure out what happened and why.A combination of mystery/spy with a bit of humor also thrown in makes this show very enjoyable, much in the way that Monk is enjoyable. A bit of a throwback to some other older shows you may catch from time-to-time where there is enough things to make you smile along the spy/cop way."
+6774,2,Great Knife!!,"I had never used a bread knife before I purchased this as an addition to my kitchen. I was very pleasantly surprised at the ease that this knife cut through loaf of crusty sun dried tomato bread. Just the right texture to increase the surface so toasting really works well, without an excess of crumbs. And the price was excellent."
+6775,2,Great easy relaxing read!,Read in one day and enjoyed it. An easy read that'll have you on the edge of your seat for what she will say next!
+6776,2,excellant,i was a big fan of this series when it ran on the history channell -it is history come alivei reccomend this video series to anyone -each episode lasts 22mins and you will learn alot about the battles of long ago no boring text booksget the view the generals wish they had
+6777,1,OK at first...,"I was basically buying this for listening to movies on the Samsung Blackjack. The Bluetooth protocol really slows down the phone. It is OK for music, but too slow for movies. The Samsung earbud (non-Bluetooth) works, but hurts my ears. So I bought a Blackjack analog universal audio adapter to output to this HT820. I only hear garbage for audio. If I plug in the HT820 to computer speakers, sound is OK. If I plug the Blackjack to computer speakers from the adapter, sound is OK. If I plug in the Blackjack to analog input of HT820, sound is garbage! I tried several in-between cables, but no luck."
+6778,2,Don't be fooled by the two different video covers,"Eating Out is a sex farce, in the grand tradition of same. Think American Pie, Porkies or any John Hughes film. That was the intention of the filmmakers.One review has mentioned that there are two different versions of the film available. Not quite true. There are two different covers on the DVD, one of which is a lot less ""gay."" The content of the film is identical however. The original cover was deemed too racy by some retailers, so a new one was designed for those outlets. So don't worry about hunting around for one cover or the other - the DVD content itself has not been editied for the ""tamer"" cover."
+6779,2,Better then what I was expecting,"This was a great slasher. Way better then Friday the 13th and Halloween!By the way this film has no plot holes what so ever! So thats a score!And...the main chick is a lesbian, how awesome is that!"
+6780,2,fun!,These shoes are sexy and comfortable. For sure fun for your special someone. I got them right on time and they were even hotter in person. I think they make legs and feet look better than other HIGH HIGH heels I have bought before.
+6781,2,This movie is a slap to your face,"This movie documents how the Israel-Palestine conflict get people to be so extremely activists, risking their lives in order to say their words. This movie is a slap to your face, especially if you are Israeli."
+6782,1,Not good.,"Dont bother paying for this as it simply is nothing like the first one. Bad acting, a couple decent fights, bad plot, not even a attractive blond romantic interest or beleiveable villan."
+6783,2,Like a champ,Worked like a champ right out of the box and continues to do so. Easy to setup even in my environment with multiple routers (connected in series).
+6784,1,Waste of time and money,"Pretty useless. Should more properly be titled ""Great Family Resorts"", as that is what it principly addresses. Has some information about seperate activities (at the resorts) for children, but very little pertaining to ""family"" vacations. Found information about locations with which I am familiar to be misleading or just plain wrong (ex., Calling Hilton Head Island ""unspoiled"" is about like saying that Manhattan is in its natural state as acquired from the Indians)."
+6785,1,nice pix - lousy narrative,"I am very disappointed by this book. While the pictures are plentiful and striking, the information in the book is essentially useless. While the authors make a valiant attempt to cover a breadth of species, they do so at the expense of providing any depth beyond what you might expect from your teenager's research report. The vast majority of photos are extreme close-ups of the blooms - great if you're looking for a coffee table book. Since there are few pictures of complete plants, however, the photos do not really aid in plant identification. Finally, a casual read uncovered three typos - all of which would have been caught through a spell check. I'm left thinking the authors were more interested in making a quick buck than making a quality contribution to the science and methods of orchid care."
+6786,1,"It was a great little exercise, til it snapped","The band did what it said fantastically. I would just sit all day at work and expand and use it to keep my hands busy.Second day of using the yellow band, it snapped. I bought these because i thought they wouldn't. Now that i know they will, might as well just buy regular rubber bands for this kind of exercise."
+6787,1,This product sucks!,"This stupid mini fondue is the cheapest made product ever! They tell you to unfold the legs so as to be able to place the candle underneath it. However, if you don't get the legs perfect the first or second time of adjusting them they snap off. I have no idea what they were made of because I tried to solder one of the legs back on and couldn't. So basically,I ended up with a $7.00 ramekin!"
+6788,1,Don't waste your money,DVD has product commercial every other song and most of the songs are not the complete original songs but are shortened or modified versions also the video is repetitious in that the same scenes are used over for multiple songs.
+6789,2,Master Emmett in ALL his glory!!,"Brilliant song selection--great shopping experience--and a huge round of ""Thanks"" for this piece to be offered for those of us who are looking to expand our Rik Emmett repetoire!!"
+6790,2,Blue Willow Inn Bible of Southern Cooking Review,"This cookbook is a wonderful example of what southern cooking is all about. It has basic recipes which are simple, traditional and flavorful. I have searched for some of these recipes for years and finally found them in this wonderful cookbook. Best cookbook I own!"
+6791,1,Flaky configuration.,My company owns several of these units. When configuring them it always feels like it's on a wing and a prayer. Often configs don't take and have to be reentered. One unit in our Philadelphia location has continued to loose it's configs and resets to defaults. Owned by Cisco but not as reliable as a true Cisco device.
+6792,2,A fitting end to the trilogy.,"After a decent opener, a flat sequel, this third installment is the best of the bunch.Though it is much more action packed than the last, and the main characters are all reunited once again to fend off a common threat, it somewhat lacks the humor (from Q's dialouge) of the 1st book.What I really enjoyed was more of the background of the main villian/s and their lore in past Star Trek moments. It is really neat to see how tightly alligned some of these books in comparison to the Star Trek Universe can be.I was expecting a bit more of the Continuum to rear their heads as the trilogy implies, but not really. Also, after done with all three, I'm not sure I learned anything spectacular about the Continuum and thier origins.All in all, Mr. Cox I believe redeemed himself with this book as number 2 was a let down.Enjoy, and I look forward to more Q antics."
+6793,1,"White trash ""one hit"" artist of the year","I give Em credit for his flawless timing, but the lyrics are inane and offensive. After listening you will realize his sole intention is to ""p*ss the world off."" He rhymes pretty well and has a few digable beats, but overall the album isn't innovative or catchy enough for me to want to play it again. After this album Em will find himself flipping burgers back in Detroit."
+6794,2,Informative history of man-made diamond,"In this book Mr. Hazen presents a comprehensive, interesting, and fair history of the development of synthetic diamond. His treatment of some of the controversial historic elements is even-handed and accurate and he presents complex scientific information in a way that is easy to understand. This book is a must read for anyone interested in high pressure research and a you'll-be-glad-you-did for anyone interested in science at all."
+6795,1,The end of the road for me...,"I used to be a big Priest fan in jr. high and high school (graduated '87), but this album didn't impress me at all. When ""Turbo"" came out, I was saddened, and this album, although harder, didn't help much and was the last 'Priest album I purchased.On the flip side, when I saw Judas Priest in concert in 1988 (just after this album came out),the songs they played from ""Ram"" sounded awesome! In my opinion, the band was just meant to be appreciated live."
+6796,1,Poor choice!,"This is a poor choice for any concievable use. I have found it to lack appropriate translations and gives no aid in specifics of pronunciation. It is very minimalist, and seldom useful. I am going to try the Webster's next."
+6797,1,Definitely not worth the wait.,"The appeal of this character was always the Mystery. We didn't know Wolverine's story, and neither did he. For years, Marvel was smart enough to realize this was a big part of the appeal of the character; they also, hopefully, realized that whatever they came up with would fall short of whatever readers imagined. This book is proof of that. His origin has been told, and it is found wanting! I can only pray that Marvel will, in the future, pull a double fakeout and say it was a false memory meant to screw with him. Please!"
+6798,2,Great URBAN DRAMA!!!!!!,"Allen Payne made this movie. This is one of the best urban movies I've seen in a really long time. I really expected this to be another ""New Jack City"" for Allen Payne, or just another typical gangster movie, but I'm so glad that I was wrong. To keep it short, this movie was awesome."
+6799,1,Things Not Seen,"This book was fairly good.It was very good at the beginning and had an awesome plot, but I dont think the author pulled through in the middle.It seemed to move very slow.I did like how creative the author was by how he made Bobby the main character get around town, being invisible in all.I would not recommend this book to anyone. I give this book one star."
+6800,1,Started leaking after only two and half months,"At first we thought that it had somehow gotten blown off, and rain had gotten in, but we have since had three rains and it was secured well, and the middle of the tarp still leaks.For the price and the fact that it is made of heavy material, we expected that it would last a while. Certainly longer than a few months.We missed the deadline for filing a claim by about one week!Not pleased at all.Now we will have to get a new tarp that does block the rain."
+6801,2,Nifty Product,"We needed this to make a catalog of products. It works great and I LOVE that it packs up nicely when not in use. Would purchase another one if I needed it. I agree that it would be nice if more background colors were included, but we all know it's easy enough to purchase fabric ourselves. :)"
+6802,2,Bale does a good job,"Interesting plot and well acted by Bale and the Chinese girls and boys. Sort of like ""The Left Hand of God"" with Humphery Bogart but more interesting and more twisted. Very enjoyable."
+6803,2,Thumbs Up!,"We always hear of the atrocities the Jewish race endured during World War II, however, very rarely do we see a glimpse into life as a German citizen during this time. ""Those Who Save Us"" tells a story of the overwhelming conditions that the Germans faced at the hands of their own government; murder, rape, cruelty, starvation and constantly living under a scrutiny of suspicion. This novel was a great surprise; very well written and a truly a page turner. What would you endure to save those you love? Please note that the scenes of rape and cruelty are quite explicit."
+6804,2,Works well.,This product works as advertised. The gauge is suprisingly useful and the little hose is a real valve stem saver for someone not so carefull like myself. Fits very securly on the bike frame with no problems whatsoever. Alittle tricky to use at first but easy to become accoustomed to. I would buy another one again without second thought if the one I have now broke. A solid 4 stars.
+6805,1,Another middle of the road pop singer from the 50's,"Another talentless hack like Patti Page and Teresa Brewer, a middle of the road pop singer... if you want to hear a good vocalist from the 50's try June Christy or Chris Connor, but for gosh sakes stay away from Jaye P Morgan."
+6806,2,Learning Italian,"This product is ideal for someone that wants to potentially go to Italy and not cause an internation incident by offending the entire country or, more likely, impress a date at a local restaurant. The interactive format helps you retain a lot of words and phrases in a short period of time. I would recommend it to anyone that thinks Italian is a beautiful language but doesn't have the time to learn it. It can be done!"
+6807,1,Laptop owners don't buy this product,This thing crashed my laptop until I finally uninstalledthe drivers and shipped it back. Laptop owners beware!
+6808,2,Me and My Diabetes,I have type 2 Diabetes. My Doctor has told me that my Diabetes has gotten to the point that I will need insulin. He tells me that I need to get more exercise. I do my best. To my scale I am losing weight; but to his scale I am the same or I weigh even more. This Cookbook to me will help me eat what I should eat and the amont I should be eating.
+6809,1,Garbage,"Nobody wants to take responsibility for this product. It does not communicate with my 2007 f-150, i keep getting error codes and i've tried repeatedly to contact the supplier (Trends Auto) and they will/have not returned numerous messages i left. I wouldn't recommend this to anyone (or buying anything from Trends Auto). Basically I paid $350 for an RPM gauge."
+6810,1,What BS !!!,"Pro-communists amuse me.Have you noticed the defense of the Rosenbergs stopped a few years ago? No one made a big deal about it. The mainstream media simply didn't mention the names any more. The defense stopped in 1995, the year The VENONA PROJECT was made public. The Rosenberg's WERE PAID COMMUNISTS ... and this IS on the record !!!! Any guess what Julius Rosenberg's codename was, according to intercepted KGB messages? LIBERAL!!!! Even the communists knew the American Liberal was nothing more than communism's bastard child.Sen. Joseph McCarthy vindicated! Ann Coulter Rules !!!!U.S. Government Illegally Executed Julius and Ethel Rosenberg... my arse! Go bark up another tree, Mr.Kenneth Kommie Kahn. Then I will just mosey along the path and piss on that tree too."
+6811,1,Cheap stuff at a premium price...,"I second what ""An electronics fan"" said. I went through 3 headsets before finally giving up. I too was disappointed with the comfort of the earpiece. They kept coming out when I tried to run. The first two headsets I had to replace because the rubber ear pad kept falling off. They stay on for about 2 - 4 weeks but once the thing falls off (and if your lucky enough to not lose it completely) the thing never stays on. The third head set I added a little super glue two the rubber pieces before using, and that seemed to do the trick, until a couple month later when the left ear piece began cutting in and out. Don't waist the money; it's not worth the hassle."
+6812,2,Great quality,These disks work great in the 3 burners I have. Never a bad burn in over 400 burns over the past 2 years.
+6813,1,Emmm- pseudoscientific piffle,"I bought this book to give it a shot- Being trained in medicine one does tend to view these 'fringe therapies' with a distrust. But I thought I would approach it with an open mind.I am sorry but the book just doesn't cut the mustard as far as scientific rigour goes.There are reasons that these kinds of therapies aren't part of the mainstream- sometimes it is because the medical profession do not give them a good chance to prove their worth, but other times it is because they have been given their chance, and sadly don't prove their worth!Medical therapies of all kinds have side effects as well as beneficial effects (indeed my side-effect may be your benefit)- and it would appear to me that chelation therapy runs more risk of killing you than helping you. This is just my opinion though.I would advise people not to buy this book but to concentrate on other literature- such as JAMA, the BMJ, the Lancet, NEJM and so on."
+6814,2,"The coolest littttle gadget, much nicer than the ipod Shuffle","Wow This Baby is sooooooooooo nice. I don't have any comments at all other than the software it comes with is clunky, but just DL from sonys web page and its much easy to use. I do think 512mb is a bit small, so maybe go for the 1gb instead. I love this thing, its PERFECT for when i workout or play poker. The hidden USB plus is the coolest feature about this gadgets, it is spring loaded behind a small little door. Man this is nice. Give it a try!"
+6815,2,The Men's House - BRILLIANT!,"I am a Master Mason in Southern California who has read & studied countless Masonic writings, tests, and books. Many are hokie, many are incorrect...however, every once in awhile, a great piece of work comes along. ""The Men's House"" is one of these works. This book was written to be enjoyed & understood by everyone - Masons & non-Masons alike. If you would like a peek into the world that Masons enjoy & wish upon the rest of humanity, this is the one. Very inspirational & thought provoking, this book is a must-read/must-own. CHRIS"
+6816,1,Disappointing,"From the cover and the blurb on the back, this is supposed to be a historical novel. Technically, this is true: it's a story of Gildged-Age era musicians serving on an Atlantic steamship. The ship in question just happens to be the RMS Titanic. It could have just as easily been the Empress of Ireland, or a totally fictional liner, and there would've been little to no change in the story. The musicians are the author's own creations, used in place of the actual men who served on the ship. It struck me as in poor taste, like writing a historical novel about the first men on the moon and replacing Buzz Aldrin and crew with ""more interesting"" characters.For a *much* better novel set on the Titanic, using the historical figures, try Max Collins' The Titanic Murders."
+6817,1,Don't waste your time,"Based on the glowing reviews, I wonder if I read the same book. I found the storyline and characters very predictable. If you have seen any B-rated movie from the 50's, you do not need to read this book because you already know the plot. The author must have run out of ideas to steal from which accounts for the short story."
+6818,1,Expected as much,"Silliness.But of course it is.What else could it be with the title quite accurate.It's a fun read, but not too fun.Don't buy it. Even for free"
+6819,2,Nice and Wide Gaffer's Tape,"I'm not sure why they call it Gaffer-Style tape, as this is gaffer's tape, pure and simple. The linen fibers in the tape provide excellent tear resistance and make this tape exceptionally strong. The low gloss black finish is somewhat reflective, but not excessively so. My only reservation is the adhesive's sticking ability, as it is somewhat less tenacious than that on professional grade tape. I have not had any gear come loose, but with a full 3 inch width that is not surprising. Overall I find this extra wide tape a good choice, without the very high price of professional grade tapes."
+6820,2,Pretty good but not great,"I thought this taffy was worthy enough for 3.5 stars so I rounded it to 4. It's good, but not great (I've had better)... but this taffy is certainly not bad either. I'd consider ordering it again if I can't find a better taffy on Amazon.I like all the flavors, except licorice (one commenter said they didn't like the peppermint but I really like that flavor). I'm also glad there are no trans fats in it and that it's made with coconut oil.One of the bigger issues preventing it from getting a better rating is that I thought is was too hard and should have been softer."
+6821,1,I chose to waste my money,"Having seen Mr. Thomas-El's name is the local paper, I thought that I would purchase his book. Big mistake. Could Mr. Thomas-El have tooted his own horn any louder? What makes his story so very different from thousands of other African-American men? Poor,raised by a single parent, absentee father, first family member to graduate from college, blah, blah, blah. I'm not hating on the brother but I still wonder why he felt the need to share."
+6822,2,The Best of All,"I have seen the 1964 version and then I watched this one. I have to say this by far is the best. The voices of the singers in the 1964 movie, such as Leslie Ann Warren's, are so nasal it's disgusting. This movie has more chemistry and the singers are better."
+6823,2,perfect for travel,"I bought this for when my friend's baby is here. Baby can sit right up to the our table with my ""big kids"" and she thinks she is too cool. I would consider her activity level to be normal for a 12-month-old, and she has remained safely sitting when I've used it. The seat easily wipes clean, is very light weight, and closes small enough to store almost anywhere. Another thing I like is that it can inflate so she's sitting higher, making it perfect for the dining table.I recommend this booster and think you'll be happy with it."
+6824,1,Unrestricted,"I have two. The one running 100% free air flow without an adjustable valve is going strong and quite after 18 months. The other, connected to a common restrictor valve for a smaller tank, bit the dust in 3 months. The cheap internals can't handle the pressure.Only purchase IF you run it wide-open and do not restrict the flow output."
+6825,2,Great flavor!,I love this flavor of Kernel's Seasoning but almost never use it on popcorn! Instead I often sprinkle it on vegetables I've steamed. I could easily use a bigger size package of the stuff.
+6826,1,In the Rabbit Hole,"This is not a pretty edition. For a serviceable edition just to read the wonderful words of these stories and to have them together, it's ok. The printing is dense and the quality of the paper is poor. The price is great. Not for a gift. Teresa"
+6827,2,A wealth of information,"Even if you are a long time dog owner, this book will educate you on some complex health problems of our canine friends. Would recommend for all canine owners."
+6828,2,Excellent for beginning readers!,"My preschool-aged daughter knew all her letter sounds (short vowels), but for some reason did not like to read. Until I found these books! She loves the pictures and the funny stories. She loves to shout the lines with exclamation points. She loves to be able to put a sticker on the story after she's read it. Now, instead of me begging her to read with me, she brings the book to me and says, ""Mom, reading time!"" I've recommended this series to all my friends with preschool-kindergarten aged children."
+6829,1,Local legend,"It's an OK cd for me. I liked a few songs, but not all. If you know him, you'll enjoy his style."
+6830,1,wrong turn indeed by anthony m jones,"Antoher movie about canibles what a waste of time, well look Im gonna make it plain and simple,Im gonna make a list of things that sucked about the movie and things that really sucked about this movie.list of things that sucked;1;The cannibles are so ugly and its like they're envinceble.2;The cheesy effects for the movie were horrific.3;The acting was really bad.list of things that really sucked;1;The predictible ending 2;The fact I didnt get scared nor jump during the entire movie and 3;The fact that ive seen the same type of movie a million times before.Note; the only reason I didnt give it a 1 star rating is because I dont want to be to hard on the barely suspenseful plot.Sorry the producers made a wrong turn by making this movie.By the way if your half way interestd in this movie i'll at least suggest you renting it first."
+6831,1,Algunas cosas Buenas.. pero,"Tiene gran contenido, pero la mayorÃa es demasido muy obvio, parece que libro infantil y explica las cosas como para kidergarden.El papel es de muy mala calidad."
+6832,1,Does not prepare you for the exam,"I was hoping this book would help prepare me for exam 70-293 but it certainly did not deliver. The material was very general and did not go into nearly enough detail to prepare you for the exam, not to mention pieces of it are incorrect! If you are going to use this book make sure to use supplemental materials as well. In fact, don't use this book at all since it's just a waste of time. I don't know how this book was ever published since it's so off the mark..."
+6833,2,Favorite Black Comedy,"I consider this one of those rarest of movies: a film that is better than the book it is based upon. That's not to put down Waugh's wonderful book, but Waugh was a gentleman, which meant he went for subtlety--the right move when writing about English upper class, but not when dealing with Hollywood. The film nails the absurdity of Hollywood and the death culture that feeds off it. Rod Steiger turns in the most entertaining performance of his career. John Waters clearly got a lot of ideas from this movie (although I have never heard him cop to it). My only complaint about this DVD is that it doesn't include, with the extras, the excised footage of Jayne Mansfield and Ruth Gordon. I use this movie as a litmus test. If I show this movie to someone and they don't like, that's pretty much the last time they are invited to my house."
+6834,1,A Mindless Compilation,"I tossed my copy out. This book is a thoughtless, mediocre cut-and-paste job. Don't buy this book if you want more than homilies."
+6835,1,2012 and STILL not mac compatible,"Get with the program Omron...I can't believe it's 2012 and I STILL can't use my omron with my mac. I got this as part of a work promotion and I""ve had it for 2 years...unable to use it. What a useless product for about half of all computer users. Fitbit it is then..."
+6836,1,"oh, god...","Well, I picked up this book on recommendation from my teacher. She said that everyone who ever read it loved it. I'm not normal, I suppose, for I abhorred this book. For one thing, it's too long. About 500 dragging, hellish pages. It was supposed to be funny. It wasn't. If you want to laugh, go read Youth In Revolt by C.D. Payne. His first chapter opens with him describing the horrible crap his mother is caughing up, first onto towels, but after wrecking all of those, his sister gets her a bucket that she sits under her chin. At this point in the book, I was like ""Alright..."" It only got worse from there. This man wallows in his pathetic life, emphasizes the worst parts to make you feel sorry for him. He doesn't deserve all the attention he got then and the attention he has recieved now. I only finished it because I had to-- don't fall prey to this rambling, pathetic work of... I certainly wouldn't call it LITERATURE."
+6837,2,very impressive!!,"Carrie Underwood impresses me in every way on this album. Especially on track ""I just Can't Live a Lie"". It's just soooooooooo amazing! I can listen to it all day! I had high expectations and she exceeded them! terrific production and planning.. somebody is copying my review. They will not go to heaven!"
+6838,1,Couldn't get into this one,"I couldn't get into this one, it was kinda of confusing with all the stuff about the obeah, the only scenes I liked was the ones between Sherry and Jason."
+6839,2,Trust me get it I think it is good,Ok heres how it goes the information is alittle hard to understand but youll get the hang of it. It has cut out pictures also. If you want all the pokemon and items get this book. It is worth your money but it is very hard to find so order it today.
+6840,1,What a let down...,"..just a let down since the first two movies where whimsical and fun.. and in Live Action.Nope, didn't like it one bit."
+6841,1,The ProBlend has a mind of it's own,"I bought one of the B&D BL600 ProBlender approximately 2 months ago. It works pretty good for blending but mine will not turn off soemtimes when you push the off button. The blender turns on when you're not even in the same room with it. The plastic around the blade is melted away some, I'm not for sure why. I do not leave it plugged in when I am not using it. I would like to get another one but I am afraid that I will have the same problems."
+6842,2,"Great Notebook, a few things to consider","Loved the notebook overall. I originally bought the notebook because I liked the idea of the tabs that I could use to organize it into sections. Where this fails is that when you tear out the labels (via the pre-perforated line) it leaves about 1/32 of a page which is of a higher gauge paper. This causes the notebook to have a hard time being held open at first. After that, it kind of becomes an annoyance for folding pages in half and putting them into the notebook like a folder. The Blueline advertisements and self-love write-ups on the inside get a little tiring as well. Also, any medium nib fountain pen users out there might be a little careful when purchasing this notebook. Using Noodler's Sequoia Green it is not possible to write on both sides of the page without making both sides unreadable. This is possible with AT Cross ballpoints and Pilot G2 07. Works great with both. Would highly recommend otherwise."
+6843,2,Compliments,"Prof. Elaydi's text is used extensively by the Rhode Island Difference Equations research group and undergraduates taking the university's difference equation course. Great job, keep them coming!"
+6844,1,Unbelievable,"""For reasons I cannot understand, I am often asked if I still think we should invade thier countries, kill their leaders, and convert them to Christianity. The answer is: Now more than ever!"".That is why Ann cannot be taken seriously.Why does she have trouble understanding why she is asked if she still believes in that statement? That is what I don't understand.Allow me to offer a reason. Because it violates the First Amendment. However, it is my personal opinion that Ann doesn't really like the First Amendment as written. I think Ann would have worded it differently. I think this would meet Ann's criterea.Congress shall insure that all laws concerning religion will conform to the Christian ideology. Furthermore, Congress shall make laws that prohibit any dissenting veiwpoint concerning the Christian religion. Moreover, Congress shall be the only members of society that determine how Christianity will be defined. Amen."
+6845,2,"Been in my collection for 22 years now, an off-beat classic","This is a great collection of off-beat holiday novelty songs, highly recommended if you are looking for something different. I mainly wrote this review to add that Strikin' It Rich was a label run by Bob Dylan. This collection originally came out in 1990 through Columbia, but it appears Amazon offers it as an on-demand CD-R today."
+6846,1,Preachy?,"Interesting, but rather preachy. I think it's a well written description of a 'coming of age' of a sorts..."
+6847,2,Has some good insight,"I saw and heard Dennis give a speech on this topic. It was very enlightening, humorous, makes me want to get the book and read it all!"
+6848,1,This book-aagh! Avoid it if you can!,"This book was written in a self-righteous and stultifyingly dull tone. I was horrified when I read it, since I expected to read an excellent, or at least slightly entertaning book. Instead, I what I read was shocking. If want a good book on Eleanor of Aquitaine, Marion Meade or Desmond Seward do a great job."
+6849,1,"When ignorance rules, we all suffer.","There is nothing even resembling Catholicism in this video! What a joke. The United States (allegedly) guarantees freedom of religion - and therefore, I suppose, that includes Satanism. What this video IS is standard Catholic-bashing, based on absolute lies and total ignorance. Questioning even one of the supposed ""facts"" of this dvd must quickly lead one to realize that the entire video is nonsense. The one-man-show creator and actor is a Satanist. Satan hates God, Jesus, Mary and the Catholic Church. If you believe in anything resembling Judeo-Christianity, this has to be self-evident. This is a video by Satan, against Mary. If this is the best he (Satan) can do, I feel even more sorry for him than I did before!"
+6850,1,My 13 month opened them instantly,"I never write reviews - but wanted to mention that as soon as I put these on, my 13 month walked over and open up the safety knob right away. Defeats the purpose to have these if she can open them. I removed them right way, as I didn't want anything on the stove that would peak her attention."
+6851,1,A BAD RETELLING,"When this series first aired, I thought the producers would capture some of the emotive essence of the original tales. Sadly I was wrong. The casting is almost completely inappropriate, with youngsters of the wrong character (for the tales) coupled with banal scripting, make this a complete turn-off, although it has to be said that some of the photography and screenplay is worthy of a look.If you are looking for a good retelling of the Robin Hood legends, the best by a country mile is the series ""Robin of Sherwood"". Although that one was made in the 80s? the characterisation, screenplay and script of the Carpenter production make it stand out as being way ahead of all the others.Don't waste your money on this Robin Hood series."
+6852,2,VERY GOOD QUALITY CAT5,"I have one of these going from my router to my computer, I have a small apartment and the wire travels right in front of my front door, so people are always stepping on it on their way out or in.Not a dent on the wire at all.The latches on them are GREAT, real good quality."
+6853,1,wish there were 0 stars,"This movie is horrible but worse is the attempts by desperate online salesmen to make the less bright of us grab this awful DVD up... Gore hounds take notice, the blood looks fake, anyone who thought this was snuff must be color blind, not worth the cost, if you have a cool indie rental place (Louisville KY is so lucky) check it out if you got plenty of friends and beer, otherwise don't bother... Japanese Evil Dead Trap was wayyyy better"
+6854,2,mystery thriller,"This movie is like a hitchcock thiller. How it got over looked in the theatres is a terrible omission. This movie is beyond thriling. Just about the time you have it kinda figured out, itopens up a new twist. This Jesse Metcalf is a hunk, man candy that is. You know what he can actup a storm. His good looks fit right in the chaacter. Michael Douglas sure looks like his Dad at this point in this life... enough about the characters. Buy this movie, dont miss this movie it is so great. Hitchcock would be proud to put his name on it."
+6855,2,good advice,"This book has some great ideas and tips for having a budget-conscious wedding. I like that the author gives the 'bargain', 'budget', and 'bling' ideas for each category depending on how much you want to spend. It has good advice about talking to vendors and even alternatives to the traditional things. Using the suggestions in this book, you can have a fabulous wedding with exactly what you want for $5000 instead of $30,000. Excellent!"
+6856,2,"Great resource, room for improvement","For mainly touring London and a few other cities nearby, this is a great resource to have! I was most impressed with the commentary on the British Museum as it gave more insight than some of the placards. Most locations have hours and days that are closed, but the House of Parliment did not and it was closed for Easter Holiday (during the week preceeding Easter) which would have been nice to know ahead of time. Since Rick changes this every year, it would also be nice to know the prices for certain bus tickets and such.I still believe this was the best tour guide I could have used, even with room for improvement :-)"
+6857,1,not good,"the acting was good and it started off kind of interesting, but it turned out to suck. this is the kind of movie where the cops have a bad habit of shooting innocent people and stupid kids who take a wounded cop hostage get a happy ending and are actually good kids and victums of racism or our capitalist system. also, the climax was way too melodramatic."
+6858,1,Transformers DVD,"Although the delivery of this product was very quick, the DVD skips greatly. The skips work themselves out, but as a mother of a three year old who insists on watching the movie at bedtime, it is very annoying to watch the movie on constant pause."
+6859,1,Worthless Stones/ ABKCO re-master for the 21st Century,"The DSD Copyright protection scheme means no play on the computer, so no adding to ITunes Playlist.These ABCKO people must still be high from the 60's. My disc was also defective on the standard CD player, jumping and skipping ( in a copyright protected digitally re-mastered sort of way) This version of the ROLLING STONES LET IT BLEED disc SUXIT."
+6860,1,Shipping rates,I paid about $16.50 for the flags (3 of them) and 25.99 for shipping--isn't this TOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much for shipping?
+6861,1,Tape eating problems,"I bought my Elura 40MC 1.5 years ago. For the first year it worked fine. However, after the warranty ran out I began to have the notorious ""tape eating problem"" that everyone is talking about. I would steer clear of this product since Canon is reluctant to do anything about it."
+6862,2,The most amazing ablum i have bought this year,"Taking Back Sunday's, tell all your friends is by far the best album that i have bought. With its blend of Punk/Emotion this album comes out on top. This is the bands only releas besindes a 5 song demo. The lead singer,Adam Lazzara, is a perfect fit for the bands enegry. The amazing lyrics and songs that are a quencer to fans of bands like thursday and dashboard confessional. I highly recomend this album to anyone who likes punk or emo."
+6863,1,Junk... Burned out in less than 6 months,"Bulbs were nice and bright when they were working. Now less than six months of run time, one of the bulbs has burnt out..."
+6864,2,Excellent!,"I have read both this book and the original PEter Pan. I thought it held up really well to the story and kept me captivated the whole way through. This is one of those books that keeps you hooked and is so good you just can't put it down.I highly recommend this, it's a great insight as to where Pete might have come from!"
+6865,2,OMG!! OD!!,"SRV and Double Trouble's Little Wing/3rd Stone from the Sun Cover is worth the price of the disc alone...I'd never heard this version; I got chills and tears to remember the loss of a legend, and of a legend's legend."
+6866,2,What a way to end a long 20 book read!,A satisfying end to a literary journey I am so happy I undertook! This book could be read as a stand alone and be equally as fulfilling as well. Wow. Good stuff!
+6867,2,A definate must for video game fans...,This book is one of the best sources for the history of video games. Anyone that grew up playing video games in the late 70's and early 80's will appreciate the good memories that this book will bring back. I especially enjoyed the book because it took me back to my childhood and to a time when video games were new and exciting and it may do the same for you.
+6868,1,This should have a warning label!,"I picked up this book because it sounded interesting. I was disgusted with the graphic descriptions of sexual acts even though I only made it part way through the book before I threw it in the garbage. I have never thrown a book away and rarely have not finished one, even if I wasn't really enjoying it. I could not however continue to pollute my mind with the images he described. I would hate for someone else to unknowingly pick this book up and not know what they were getting."
+6869,2,Takes some practice,"As another reviewer stated, I wasn't sure what to expect. I've been handing these out among my guitar friends and gotten mixed reviews. For me I hated it the first day. After a while I went back and started playing again and saw a little potential. It is good for easily changing tone and playing a slower song. I get frustrated trying to do anything at an even slightly high tempo, but that's not what they are made for. They are cheap and fun to play with the right songs. I keep various picks in each of my cases and this one has started to earn a spot among the essentials."
+6870,1,Very disappointing...,"I lost my old playstation memory card & this was about the time when they stopped selling playstation memory cards; they only sold ps2 mem. cards. So my friend sold me his old one, this InterAct Memory Card. I barely used it until recently. I've been playing my game & I got really far & then today, I tried to load my game & it said that it's ""unusable"". soooo... I pretty much spent all those hours for nothing. What a waste.I do not recommend this item."
+6871,1,"Good listening, Terrible talking","I got this headset to use with Skype. While they make a good set of headphones, the mic is next to useless. You virtually have to scream into the mic in order to be heard. Given the fact that the mic is what distinguishes this product from a headset, you would think that the mic would work properly. Unfortunately, I didn't learn this fact until after the return period ended, otherwise, these would have gone back to the seller.If you want something that you can use for talking, find something else. These are terrible."

She will quietly sleep in this which is on my side of the bed for the better part of the night.With her pillow and blanket she remains peacefully at sleep without feeling abandoned.
+6873,2,EXCELLENT!,"I finished reading this books in 2 days only! Wow!!! I really really love it! Excellent story, great characters and plot. I love the wolves too. This is one of the best story I ever read, the one that you cannot put down before you finish it. I even stay up until 5:30 am. My mind keep telling me to read one more chapter. just one more, and I ended up with lots more. This is one of those books that one MUST have! truly a masterpiece. I can't wait to read the sequel."
+6874,2,Pressure problem,"My Devonshire faucet and related accessories are beautiful, but the faucet presents a problem. For a good hand-washing water temperature, I must turn the hot water on all the way and the cold water just a bit. Kohler sent a new valve when I contacted them about this problem, but the situation is the same after its installation. A friend in another building also bought the same faucet, and has the same problem. Anyone else?"
+6875,2,"Light, fluffy, SPOOKY chick lit","I enjoyed this book, and read it in one sitting. It kept me up late, and kept me from falling asleep easily. The storyline with clairvoyance and satanism is a little creepy, but the author manages to find a happy balance between the fluffy chick lit issues of what to wear and the fear of a local murderer who worships Satan, and haunts her dreams. Add two hot men, one blonde and an attorney, and the other, wickedly hot, and dark, and with the name Lucien, perfectly suited to run an occult shop. But what else does he dabble in? The author has written a lively, fast-paced fun story. My only quibble, that keeps me from giving 5 stars, is that I didn't get into it right away, because of the somewhat young tone. But, overall, this one is a winner."
+6876,1,A disappointing purchase,"A comprehensive collection of color photographs of RC models, makes a lovely cofee table item - but the value stops at that. The text is filled with inaccuracies that render the book worthless as a guide to the hobby, so much that I wondered if the author had actual hands on experience with the subject matter."
+6877,2,Surprisingly moving,"Although a documentary, it was a surprisingly moving and warm film. The main character, the faithful monk Tenzin, is very likable, and your heart goes out to him when he expresses doubt that he is up to the task of finding his teacher's new incarnation. There is a scene where he revisits his late teacher's now-abandoned and ruined retreat home, and he is overwhelmed with sorrow and begins to cry. Depictions like that abound in this film - moments of touching human-ness that make you realize that people are the same all over the world. There are also moments of joy, like the scene where Tenzin and his reincarnated master, now a very young boy, are both trying as fast as they can to make bottles of soda pop foam up and spill out over the glass. This is not a story about Buddhism as much as it is a story about love."
+6878,2,magic moments of opera -preliminary assessment -,"I am still in the process of working my way through collection, 1st five very enjoyable so far - may add more later. It compliments the la scala collection very well."
+6879,1,It ain't Boole,"What bothers me about this book is that people will get ""Boolos"" confused with ""Boole."" And then they might actually conclude that this guy is good at logic. He is not. This is the worst book on logic that I could possibly imagine."
+6880,1,Good except for annoying echo,This phone has a fatal flaw. When you talk even a bit loudly you hear a distorted echo of your own voice. This is so annoying that I had to return this phone. Another negative is that none of three headsets that I tried worked well with this phone. These problems are unfortunate since most other aspects of this product were quite good.
+6881,2,Completely love it.,"One of the best things I've bought. It IS delicate and I learned that the hard way unfortunately. A friend of mine smacked my hand for whatever reason and it bent so I'll be ordering another one soon.. (along with two additional ones for my two best friends). It came in a nice little box with a bow on it. I've had it for over a year and wear it almost every day. (I'm not one for jewelry but I loved this ring). Great buy and I WILL be ordering from this company again. You see in the picture exactly what you get in the mail and for the price, you can't go wrong."
+6882,1,This is a product from 1987. Do you have a Mac Plus?,I bought this without realizing what I was getting. This is a product from 1987 and won't work on a Mac OS older than about 1990. I feel I've been taken....but I'm sure I have no legal recourse.
+6883,1,Sins of the Flesh,"I had to stop reading it,because it just is too long. It didn't hold my interest. I woul not recommend it."
+6884,1,Read something else,"This book is the nadir of Battletech authorship. To be fair, other authors, like Robert Thurston and Thomas Gressman, have certainly had shaky starts, but I don't look forward to another installment from Rice. The book had nothing to do with the Battletech Universe, the characters were one dimensional (barely), and the plot was rife with holes. It was like reading a first draft written in crayon."
+6885,1,6 min on high to heat water - 5 min popcorn,"Was very disappointed with this machine particularly after reading the glowing reviews here. Perhaps we got a lemon, but the microwave on this puppy just didn't cut it. We couldn't even heat water in it! 6 Min on HIGH to make hot water! Didn't pop popcorn... etc.Just plain ol' didn't work...Caveat Emptor"
+6886,1,Horrible Customer service,"This TV failed 1 (one) week after the 1 year warranty.(no power)Viewsonic customer service was ignorant and rude and would not help me at all.I find that many many ViewSonic video products fail premature.So a word to he wise--->""AVOID VIEWSONIC!!"" they are garbage."
+6887,1,It is true! it is a piece of junk and amazon doesn't stand behind it,"I also agree it is a piece of junk. I gave it as a gift and had bought it in early December. Obviously, the person that I gave it to could not open it until the holidays. 30 days had already passed when she discovered that it was a piece of junk. When we tried to return it, neither Amazon nor Allergy be gone would stand behind the product."
+6888,1,HairMax,I tried the HairMax for about a month but noticed no change in my hair in any way at all. I did not think it was worth continuing and I needed to return for a refund before the time ran out.
+6889,1,Does not work with M863,"This does not work with the M863 camera. Do not believe the top review listing compatible products. This is nothing more than a normal mini usb, not the special connector Kodak uses. Wasted my money."
+6890,2,Great Biography Video,This video was restored beautifully. The images are sharp and clear. This video was an excellent biography of Sgt. Alvin York. My wife saw a mention of him in some other show and wanted to know more. This tells most of his story with only a bit of propaganda thrown in. It's long but worth it and I'm glad we bought it to add to our collection of movies.
+6891,2,Excellent performance of th 7th.,"While I think JPMARMARO has gone slightly overboard on this, it is indeed an excellent performance, particularly in the second movement, in which the multiple threads can be followed much more easily than is usually the case. The oboes do indulge in some excessive tremolo and the finale starts out a bit less vivace than it ought to, but almost everything else about this recording is first rate."
+6892,1,Horrible Craftsmanship,"We received our first of two Schoenhut guitars and saw that it was very dinged up and paint was scratched in places. We sent it back to the Amazon reseller, and ordered a replacement guitar from Amazon. The second one came worse than the first one.The guitar itself probably sounds ok, but we sent both back because of horrible craftsmanship. No ""new"" product should ever ship in such horrible condition."
+6893,2,Great Facial Tissue,"This is a great tissue. This 3-ply tissue holds up much better than other tissues I've used. With my allergies, I've used many different products over the years, this Kleenex product is far superior. With the lotion, it feels really good on my skin and not leaving me with ""red nose"".My only minor complaint is that when the box is nearly empty, the next tissue doesn't always pop up so you have to dig in the box to get at the next tissue. When these is less than 1/2 inch of tissues left in the box, I usually just take them all out and use them up that way."
+6894,2,"Nice Vac, Great Price, Weak Belts","So far i really like everything about this vacuum except for the fact that the belt broke after using it only 3 times. The belts were not easy to come by locally, i just happened to find some on clearance at Target. Replacement took about 5 minutes and was easy enough, i just think it was ridiculous that it lasted such a short time. If not for that, this would have gotten a 5 star review."
+6895,1,"A beautiful, empty glass","I agree with all those who said that it took at least 100 pages to become engaged with this novel. And that may not, ultimately, been worth the effort. Many, many of Harrison's sentences and descriptions are breathtaking. Those sentences, those descriptions, are so beautiful. Beyond those glittering things there is, sadly, not much else."
+6896,2,A versatile mute,Most trombonist don't use mutes because they usually don't fit in the trombone case. If you are going to bring a mute to the gig in my opinion the Clear tone Trombone Mute is your best choice. Use it with a plunger and you have a cup mute and play into softly and it works as a straight mute.
+6897,2,Fantastic Workout!,"Jillian is awesome! This workout is incredible. I bought it based on all of the great reviews here on Amazon, and the video did not disappoint. Jillian keeps things interesting and fun while keeping me motivated. I highly recommend this workout!"
+6898,2,It works ... and its cheap,"I do not have much to say. This cleaning kit works and it is cheap. It is nothing special but everything I expected. I use it to clean my .22 rifle and pistol. Works fine for both. I have used it three times so far. So far, no complaints."
+6899,1,Where are the pages?,"I received this cookbook today and can't believe what I found. It goes from page 1 - 43, doing good. Then the next page is 68 ? what? Then page 69, then we are back to page 46 and 47. Now page 72 and page 50 then page 77. Wow, what happened to page 49 which contains the recipe I was interested in? And, on the back of page 77 is page 54. Wow, I am dizzy. Then it is 54 to the end of the book on page 122. Still no page 49, but, two pages 70, 71 and 72. Stupid."
+6900,2,informative,has a lot of information that I found useful. it was just what I was looking for. good buy. thanks
+6901,1,Great looking but not extremely durable,"I enjoyed the styling of this belt while I owned it, but it's not nearly as durable as the typical belt design. If you plan to only wear it for certain occasions and not day to day, it should work for you."
+6902,2,Aquis Towel,"I LOVE THIS TOWEL! I got the large (19x39) because I am a large girl. I swim 4 1/2 hours a day in a pool where the chlorine is never stable. It's a no-brainer that I have to shower after getting out of that pool. I had my doubts that a microfiber towel could/would absorb much, but it was guaranteed, so I bought one. It is wonderful. It absorbs almost all the water in my hair, dries my body totally and still has room to wrap around my neck an soak up the sweat while I'm doing other things. It is washable. I haven't put it in the dryer because it dries very fast anyway. If they weren't so much money I would replace all of my household towels with these. The snap is a bonus also. I can put it right onto a hook in one of the shower stalls and go off to swim and if it was damp, it is totally dry by the time I get back to it. I like the size. It comes with its own mesh pouch. It's just about perfect in my humble opinion."
+6903,2,Stingray The Complete Series,"I used to watch this one also on tv in the 1960's. To me at that time I thought it was really cool. Since I saw supercar I started watching the half hour episodes of Stingray. I liked the way that Gerry Anderson put together those kind of episodes also I liked his puppetry. The episodes were so put together that it seemed like the puppets were almost human and did things that us humans do. So for me that's why I bought Gerry Anderson's Stingray. This video collection is good for anyone of any age.Signed,Phil Hitchcock"
+6904,1,unecessary review,"The cable is fine.The emails and this review are unecessary and a nuisance.please take me of any further mailing lists.If I have a problem I'll let you know.I personally feel advertising in America is intrusive and much too aggressive.Help me when I ask for it, then leave me alone.see ya,Oren"
+6905,2,Keeps Cat's out of Cupboards!,"After looking at a few options I decided to install these to keep our cat from pulling things out of the cupboard when we're not home. We realized we needed something when he got into the snack cupboard and shook a bag of sunflower seeds ALL OVER THE HOUSE, including all the bedrooms. After laughing and vaccuming it up I got these locks, installed them about a year ago and have had no more incidents since. Works Perfectly!"
+6906,2,Hurry up with the movie!,"One of the most entertaining graphic novels I've read. It's not ""Watchmen"" caliber storytelling but it has enough twists and turns and action to keep fingers turning the pages.The big question is: Where's the movie adaptation? We've been waiting four years for it now. C'mon, Rodriguez and co. Get Mickey Rourke back while his career's in an upswing!"
+6907,2,I Love These Singles Boxes,"Okay - I'm probably a sucker. I have purchased singles boxes from the Clash and Duran Duran as well, already having all of the singles in my collection on various albums or compilations.I just get a kick out of the original artwork on the singles sleeves, and having all the b-sides just like they were when originally released.Besides which, you can't argue with the quality of the tunes here. One way or another, you'll be very happy you bought this collection."
+6908,1,Great idea but not a good fit,"I read both the positive and negative reviews for this item before purchasing it, and felt that the good far outweighed the bad, so I tried it. Unfortunately, I found that the main fault mentioned in all the bad reviews applied to me - it is just too large for my hand. My hands are about average size for a woman, but this mouse really felt way too big. Also, I found that the keys required too strong of an effort to click (another problem mentioned in several negative reviews I read). For someone who is looking for relief from carpal tunnel, this was no better than a regular mouse and worse than some I've used with a lighter touch required. It really was disappointing to me because it seems like such a great idea - the vertical placement of the arm really did feel better than a regular mouse; maybe if it were offered in more than one size that would be great, but they would still need to adjust the touch on the keys for it to give any real relief."
+6909,1,"I Can't Believe Julia Roberts Starred in ""The Mexican.""","As a Julia Roberts' fan, I was very disappointed in this movie. In fact, I fell asleep during it. I've seen Julia in much, much better movies, including ""Mystic Pizza,"" ""Steel Magnolias,"" and ""Pretty Woman."" All of which I own on DVD. Too bad she had to add this one to her resume. I can't believe I bought this DVD! What a waste of money!"
+6910,2,a dvd for all regions,"What can a poor boy add to all those ravishing reviews? Nothing, just that i got my copy yesterday, and found that, contrary to what the product details say, the disc is not region-protected. So if you had cold feet because you might have to watch it in the computer or simply you could not watch it at all, forget it! Your dvd player will receive it with open arms (i take for granted your player understands NTSC). so you have no excuses now, go and spend whatever currency you have in your wallet, it's as good as the other guys say! Oh, and the same applies to 'The American Folk Blues Festival 1962-1966', all regions, baby!"
+6911,1,Something was lost on this one...,"As an AVID Dwight fan, I eagerly bought this CD, dwightyoakamacoustic.net, and was thoroughly disappointed when I heard it. Not only am I unhappy with this CD, I am embarrased to have my peers listen to it (these peers are ladies that I talked into going to a live Dwight concert this summer that don't really know him or his music). Luckily I have all of his previous CD's to play for them to get them in the mood.I certainly hope that his tour for this year of 2000 is not based on the acoustic version of his songs. The worst part of this is that all of the excitement of his music (which is why I love his music so much), is gone. I'm not saying that he didn't do a good job on this CD - as he has a great voice - I just found this CD VERY, VERY BORING!"
+6912,2,An excellent telling of the history of man's first flight.,"Fred Kelly did a wonderful job in bringing the story of the Wright Brothers to the public in this birgraphy. He starts us off by showing us the environment that the brothers grew up in and how the two had a curious and experimential nature about them. We are then shown the methods they had used in their experimentations for developing their flying machine. We can even feel the edge of competition as Samual Langly makes his attempt at manned powered flight only a day before the brothers and is met with failure.It has been 100 years since that magical day on the North Carolina Outter Banks, and Kelly manages to bring the experience back to us to relive. This is also an excellent book for children to read. I highly recommend it."
+6913,2,Almost excellent!,"This Ruth Copeland collection is a good one with excellent remastering for stereo. All of the songs are here except ""Madam Butterfly"". Why they left it out is a complete mystery to me. That is the main reason I could only give this cd 4 stars."
+6914,2,Nice Simple Keyboard,I bought this keyboard to upgrade from a microsoft photo keyboard and I am NOT disapointed. I like wired products over wireless due to no having battries die on you wile gaming. The back light is very nice and great in a dark room. only down side is that at a 30 degree viewing angle you cant read the keys but at 45 degrees its perfect. The dim setting on the keyboard is kinda pointless cause its just too dim to see but on the max setting its just right. The keys are nice and responsive with out and delay or sticking.Purchase and you wont be disapointed
+6915,1,Another one bites the gunpowder,"Again we see an 'Action Encyclopedia' from Bensn, which turns out to be little more than exerpts of Paladin Press books, including quite a few titles from Ragnar re-hashed in what is generally a waste of your time. More B.S. explosives, including the 'improved C-4' formula. Interesting reading for those who aren't serious 'men of action.', but a waste of time for the rest of us."
+6916,1,An Abridged McCarthy for Dummies,"Unless you suffer from attention deficit disorder, Oprah or the tender ministrations of the Uhhmerican education system, skip this puffball and go straight to McCarthy's real body of work, which ended abruptly upon completion of ""Blood Meridian."" In my opinion, ""Suttree"" is McCarthy's crowning achievement, and one of the great American novels of the 20th century, while ""The Road"" amounts to little more than a $ellout $creenplay and a tragic waste of the author's monumental talent."
+6917,2,Very enlightening...,"This book is fantastic...very enlightening to one of the world's overlooked instances of genocide and brutality. my only quarrel with the book is that it is kind of short and I found myself wanting more information. Still, if you are looking for a place to start, this is it."
+6918,2,makeup box,Product arrived quickly packed well no damage double boxed. The description matched the product. Would give it a 5 star but my wife has yet to see or use it yet...
+6919,2,Three Amazing Films in One Pack!,"I love all three films in this series, and cannot wait for Year 4! It will be so great to have Year One, Year two and Year 3 all lined up next to eachother on my DVD shelf."
+6920,1,Not functional - spoon is almost flat.,"I don't get all the good reviews for this. The spoon is so flat it would take a month to eat a bowl of soup...and most of it would end up on the floor. If all you want is an OK fork, then get this...but if you care about a spoon, set the bar really, really, really low."
+6921,2,Is Reality Immutable?,"I had read the original short story upon which this novel is loosely based some time ago. I was curious where Mr. Bear could take the story in a longer form. Well, he took it into the realm of a near-epic. The concepts regarding the nature of reality presented in the book do, however, deserve to be explored in greater detail. Are you listening, Mr. Bear?"
+6922,1,Thinly written,"Robertson obviously is a legend an innovater in the hedge fund space, but the author rarely gives you any true original insight. I respect Robertson for what he did, and his investing returns, but unfortunately with over 10,000 hedge funds in existence, a lot of the mispricings he traded on are gone. Many of his proteges have gone on to produce great returns, but I think a lot of their success is due to the Tiger Brand. One only has to look at Dwight Andersen from Ospraie, whose fund blew out in the greatest bull market in commodites this century. Ospraie couldnt even beat the indices.. The Goldman Sachs Commodity and CRB, nice job if you can get it right, underperform in your industry and make 11 figures."
+6923,1,"looks alright, but doesn't hold up",This costume ripped and fell apart within a few minutes of my son putting it on....and no..my kid isn't a fattie.
+6924,2,$5 short film,I bought this because it was only $5 dollars. It's really just a short Christmas film. I don't think it's worth the $5 dollars. I have Netflix and could have watched something else for free.
+6925,1,VERY DISAPPOINTED,"I bought this item for my granddaughter's birthday. When my daughter and son-in-law inflated it, the top ring had a leak in it. They tried it a couple of times, and the top ring still deflated. I contacted the seller to let them know, and I got NO RESPONSE from them. I contacted them again 5 days later and still NO RESPONSE. It has been 7 days since the second email. I am filing a report with Amazon. I WILl NOT buy from this seller again."
+6926,2,One of my favorite Pern books!,"This is the first book I read of the Pern series, and I loved it! I've read the entire series and this is definately on of my favorites. Of any of the characters Anne McCaffrey has created (at least the in the books I've read so far) Lessa was the most well developed person. I don't know why the author seemed to turn against her in all the other books! Other great characters in this book inclued, F'lar, Master Robinton, F'nor, and the Dragons!"
+6927,2,A True Crime Story,"This book has all the components of a great book: Suspense, drama, twists and turns and a little comedy. From the start this story has you captivated. Truman Capote toys with the readers mind throughout the novel by making the reader feel sorry for the disturbed criminals. A great crime novel that is excellent from start to finish"
+6928,2,Give me more!,"This toy is so cute! When you feed Pooh some honey, he starts wiggling his little paws and talking. And his voice is great! He's got a soft drawl that sounds very southern. Entertainment for hours!"
+6929,2,The Fifth Woman,The characters almost come to life as it is written. Great job by not just letting the reader think that all are just the same only different names. It reads like one would imagine a movie. The plot is laid out very effectively with a guessing game to the end.
+6930,2,"Very good video, for kids","This was a very good video, but I don't watch TV and was therefore unaware that its format is suited for young people: kids and young adults. I enjoyed watching it once, but will probably put it up for sale at Half.com. I recommend it to anyone who has children interested in meteorology."
+6931,2,Great for Beginners,"This is great for beginners!Great work out. Easy to follow instructions, clear speech, and good demonstrations. The instructor works out with you to give you that extra push, and the company you need to know you're not doing this on your own.The best part about this is that this DVD also includes floor exercises off the bike that helps tone and strengthen your core. Great results too! I lost 35 pounds (from a whopping 270) in 2 months. Of course good eating habits prevailed as well. Try eating more vegetables in your meals, and also try to eat 6 meals a day including fruit (eat at every 3-4 hours)."
+6932,2,sleep at last,"I'm in the process of moving and had been attempting to sleep on a futon with not much success... then I purchased the mattress topper and WOW!!! what a difference, I've been sleeping through the night ever since it's arrival."
+6933,2,"Jaco's last stand, a solid sounding album.","The last Weather Report lineup to feature Jaco Pastorius and he's still good. Don't expect any of his bass flash, though, he's quite conservative here. The album is a true group effort where everyone's working together well and nobody oversteps anybody. Unlike the mix of solid group dynamics and cool solos that ""Heavy Weather"" provided, this album shows a group coming together for one true democratic sound. The last track, though, is really the only time you feel all the members going nutzo - a good thing. Nice album, not their greatest."
+6934,2,The music of the people,Dont be shy! This cd is the proof that the popular still can be great. pagode is a great brazilian rithym and wonderful music to dance. My discrimination against the real popular music was beated by those great artists of the joy!
+6935,1,STAY ALWAY FROM THIS JUNK,"I READ THE REVIEWS OF THE PRODUCT AND DIDN'T LISTEN TO THEM. THREE MONTHS AFTER I HAD IT THE EQ BUTTON STARTED ACTING UP AND CHANNELS WERE CUTTING OUT AND THE PROBLEM GOT PROGRESSIVELY WORSE. TO THE POINT THAT IT WAS TOTALLY ANNOYING. THEN THE SOUND QUALITY WENT BAD ON IT. I STARTED GETTING DISTORTION AND I WOULD SOMETIMES GET THESE SONIC SCREECHES EVEN WITH THE TREBLE TURNED DOWN ON THE AMP. THE UNIT HAS A LEFT AND A RIGHT CHANNEL VOLUME CONTROL, IT WAS A NICE FEATURE IF YOU WANTED TO TWEAK THE BALANCE IN YOUR ROOM. THEN THE RIGHT CHANNEL WENT SOUR AND DROPPED HALF ITS VOLUME. THAT'S WHEN THE AUDIOSOURCE EQ200 TOOK A LITTLE TRIP TO THE GARBAGE DUMPSTER. EVEN THOUGH THE COMPANY IS BASED IN AMERICA IT'S ACTUALLY CHEAP CHINESE JUNK. MANUFACTURED IN CHINA WITH CHEAP,INFERIOR PARTS. NO QUALITY WENT INTO THIS MACHINE, DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY. I CLEANED UP MY OLD TEAC EQUALIZER THAT I'VE HAD SINCE THE LATE 70'S AND MY SOUND SYSTEM IS BACK IN BUSINESS."
+6936,2,Very Good,"Its a very useful toy for your kids. They are going to like it. Dont think about it, just buy it."
+6937,1,I've had some problems,"I really like the design of this watch. It is a simple GMT watch at a good price. But I have had some problems with the watch loosing time. I sent it to Wenger, and the movement and battery was replaced, but then it got water in it next time I went swimmnig. I'm disappointed by these problems. I wonder if there are other problems since this model is now listed in the ""outlet"" section on the Wenger website."
+6938,1,worst design ever invented,"The engineers that designed this one obviously drink tea!!The grinder is worthless and wastes lots of coffee. Then it gets all of condensation heat so you have a gooey mess.The worst part is the all plastic door. It seems that when it gets hot the latch loosens up, door pops open and water goes everywhere. This problem happens at least 10% of time.Do not waste money on this junk!"
+6939,1,Forced myself to finish this,"Well, having given up on Shadow several years ago,and having been told that people often gave upon these books and loved them on a second attempt,I am making a second attempt. I have finished Shadowand Claw, and so far am not having anything resemblinga good time.I'm not that bothered by the antique vocabulary. I'm justnot sure that I care what happens to Severian or indeedanyone else in the story. I enjoyed Jack Vance's ""Eyes ofthe Overworld"" much more - and that has a somewhatsimilar setting and somewhat similar vocab.I will read Sword and Citadel, but whilst it's possiblethat they will make me re-evaluate events in books 1and 2 I can't see myself deciding after 3&4 that1&2 were, in retrospect, brilliant fun.In particular, Dr Talos' play near the end of book 2is something I skipped faster and faster, like romancescenes in a Doc Smith book. Eeeagh."
+6940,2,Very useful reference,Excellent reference for all linguists/students. Sort of difficult to study with however...Should be divided into categories if you intend to use it as a study manual.
+6941,1,Not Good,"I ordered a NEW book --the one I received was Used and had a torn cover. So I could not give it as a gift to a sick friend. It came overnight which was better than expected, but it was and is useless. I've given up with Amazon and trying to talk to someone. When you buy there now it's Pot Luck."
+6942,2,Urichin is Little,"Urchin is a great animal in the book and is way better than Mathis or whatever from Redwall. Urchin does the inposible by getting back from the mist and saving the Mist Island. He is also saving a lot of little animals with disfuntions get saved from the evil slayer. Urchin dies in the end by a giant gang of monkeys, chimpanzees, gorrillas, and talking bananas."
+6943,2,Happie movie!,"I am a big fan of HoNg Kong movie, and i also a big fan of Kristy yang. The movie didn't talk much about her though, but it was a happy ending for her. I know you might want to know an overview here it is:King ( ekin cheng) is sorta a playah, he has many girlfriends, but after meeting Eleven ( shu sQi) he realy inlove with her. Jack ( Louis koo tin lok) always expect a 100% girlF. So his girlfriend got tired of him, so she dumped him. Queen (kristie yang) has been loving jack along time, and she finaly expresed it out after he broke up with his girlf. fist he didn't except her, but after all he realize dat he likeher. so it is sorta happy ending. Wellz King didn't have quite a happy ending but he still happy. Want to know more?WAtch it!!!!!it is an excellent movie, i saw it more than 5 times alredy. have fun!"
+6944,1,Well-written but stupid,"Anne Tyler has such talent, it's a shame to see it wasted on a book that is, in my opinion, unbelievable. As a happily married mother of three, I cannot imagine just up and leaving my family without staggering remorse. Yet that is exactly what the heroine does. She may not be ecstatically happy in her marriage, but there is no compelling reason for her to leave. Once she does leave, she has small doubts, but never the guilt I would imagine a real person having. Nor can I imagine a family--husband and grown kids--having located the missing wife/mother, not contacting her, and then, after more than a year, when she returns, not confronting her with accusations. I find it very disturbing that modern America would buy into this premise."
+6945,1,tiny tiny book....,I expected activities that don't require a lot of preparation or set up. This is not that book...and it's tiny. I don't think I'll be referring to this book very often but returning it seemed like a waste since it was only $3.98.
+6946,1,not practical,"I ordered this book and perused it and realized it was more of what I already know just from reading magazine articles in Parenting and kids' magazines along with Sugar Busters. It is very much geared toward families with older kids (8+) who have been consuming tons of sugar and reasons to get them not to. I am looking for recipes and ways to make sugar-free foods for my beginning children, ages 1 and 3. So if your kids are that age or you're looking for recipes or helpful suggestions, this is not the book you're looking for."
+6947,2,Getting back to it's roots,"As I mentioned in my review for Caprica 1.0, the series leaves behind the dark grittiness of Battlestar Galactica and really delves into the intense drama of pre-war colonial society. Though the first few episodes of the series (1.0) felt slow and suspenseful to the average Battlestar Galactica fan, the second half of the series really takes off. Things become a lot deadlier, more intricate and a lot darker."
+6948,2,big wheel,"While the toy seems to be durable ,we haven't had it long enough to tell if it's going to hold up to abuse from a three year old. Petals could be a little closer to reach also. All transactions were quick and easy."
+6949,1,Extremely Disappointing,"I have every Stephen King book available to the public and have loved almost every one. This one though was extremely disappointing. The story took forever to get moving and was so confusing at times that I had to put it down and think about was I was reading. In some cases, I had to read it again just to ""get"" what he was trying to say. I will buy his next book but have to say this was a huge let-down. I hope he gets it together with his next book because I would be sad to have to mark another big author off my list of must-haves."
+6950,2,microwave oven,"i already had this oven with the trim kit, so this was a replacement. it was just as cheap to get a new oven as to have the old one repaired. amazon had the best price and free shipping- which was much faster than they said it would be. i'm very happy with this purchase."
+6951,2,froyo heaven,"I use this ice cream maker to make frozen yogurt! So easy to make, just dump in a container of your favorite yogurt and/or some pureed fruit and in 15 minutes you have a delicious healthy frozen treat!The only con: I wish there was a handle on the bowl to make scooping out the ""ice cream"" easier."
+6952,1,Missing Secret War!,"Brian Michael Bendis is a generally well-regarded writer, but this book is a huge waste of time for the reader and all involved. There is a Secret War that Nick Fury put the heroes on in Doctor Doom's kingdom of Latveria and guess what? That battle is still secret, it's never shown! This is inexcusable writing. They take five issues to hint at the battle, and the aftermath and consequences of such, but the battle itself is shown only in tiny, brief flashbacks. What??! Then why bother?Then the insult is compounded by a trade paperback that is only half-filled with the actual comic. The other half are goofy ""email"" transcripts and panels on a ""Who's Who"" of various villains. Was not worth the price paid for it, I want my money back, Bendis! Next time, put out a 12-issue story, if you can't tell it in five!"
+6953,2,Very Strong,"I am posting this review only because I have been very happy with the strenght of these magnets. Unlike some ""cheapo's"" I purchased before, these were strong enough to hold thick large paper boards on the wall with ease."
+6954,1,You grow girl,This book wasn't what I thought it would be...I don't dislike it but I didn't get anything out of it....Thank you for mailing right away
+6955,2,Absolutely Adorable!,"These earrings are absolutely adorable, and for the price, you can't go wrong! These are great for children, teenagers and anyone that loses their backs easily.The backs are a ""screw on type"" and they NEED to be twisted off. These will not just easily fall off the ear, which I love, and they are a very nice size. Not too big, but not little girl small where they won't be seen either. So, if you're looking for a special little girl, or for someone that loses backs easily, you don't have to look any further. These Screw-back earrings will be a wonderful addition to anyone's jewelry box.They are quality made and look beautiful on, I highly recommend these earrings to anyone!"
+6956,2,Great,"My 2 year old daughter got this for her birthday. All three of my children love it. The dance is very cute, the phrases are fun, and it keeps them entertained for as long as a 2 and 3 year old can be.When blue won't sing anymore, check the batteries, that might help.The video is a plus. My two younger kids love the videos, any Blue's Clues videos."
+6957,2,On the Road To Enlightenment,"Less plot, more pot than On the Road. Where Kerouac's most famous novel was all about reckless travel, music, girls, and rebellion, Dharma Bums is more introspective. Lots of meditation, soul searching and existential ruminations about life, truth, and nature. My only regret is that I didn't choose the book format, as it was hard to keep up with all the philosophical ramblings while listening in the car."
+6958,2,Exaggerated but entertaining,"This book is somewhat exaggerated. A relatively entertaining story told by a former Wall Street salesman. The author has many funny accounts of wall street brutalities, abuse and the money culture. The author talks about the Orange County treasurer and how Morgan Stanley managed to make a lot of money from them, and eventually drive them to bankruptcy. It is very comparable to ""Liars Poker"" by M. Lewis.Fun light read."
+6959,2,Great GPS,"Even though the price is more than what I wanted to pay, it was worth it. I like the choices of voices and ease of use. Like all GPSs, you have to get use to inaccuracies during your trip. It's good to study your route before heading out. Sometimes common sence is better than the GPS itself. Battery life is good. Just wish it would work with my current cell phone (EnV)."
+6960,2,Christmas China,I purchased this Lenox Holiday Tartan Gold banded soup bowl as a Christmas gift for a friend who is collecting this pattern. The price was the best I have found and I will probably order another one for her for her birthday.
+6961,2,On my top 5 list of favorite movies,"This movie was just simply amazing. If you are the type of person who easily feels other people's pain then you may need an entire tissue box after the movie is over. I felt everything the movie wanted me to feel. Guilt, remorse, sadness, and even happiness. I don't understand why people would totally dislike the movie just because of a few factual mistakes. There are thousands maybe even millions of movies that don't get the facts %100 right. I hate when people look for the negative in things and then forget all about the positive. If this movie didn't move you to want to at least consider donating you have no heart..regardless if the facts weren't all right. I cry every single time I watch this movie. Will Smith is a wonderful actor and he deserved every award for this movie. My copy of the movie got scratched so I immediately went on to Amazon to search for a new copy."
+6962,2,HEALING A BROKEN HOME,"When I divorced my husband, I was looking for ways to heal my family and to provide additional support for the challenges children of divorce face. This is a wonderful book and has ideas for every type of family. The ideas cover every day activities as well as holidays, and includes great ideas for extraordinary days to be recognized as children grow up and face their own trials. The ""how to"" do your own traditions is effective and powerful. I have been divorced two years now and feel happy and confident that my family will be okay. The rituals and traditions we are building have healed and strengthened our bonds as a family. By the way, during the divorce I went to a child psychologist for advice on my children's welfare. All of her suggestions sounded so familiar, I asked if she had read this book. She had and uses it as a key reference for counselling families."
+6963,2,Dress Your Family in Corduroy and Denim,"Hearfelt essays on David Sedaris' life growing up gay in middle America. Always full of astute observations of American life, you will laugh out loud many times while reading this collection of essays."
+6964,2,Circulon products are the best,"It seems like I had to buy a non stick pan every two years even though I followed instructions and maintained them according to manufacture directions. However, recently I purchased the Circulon round grill pan. I was truly amazed. No sprays or oils needed, easy clean up. With regard to the 12"" pan with lid, it's great. I do wish it had a handle on the other side because it would be easier to lift. Highly recommend."
+6965,1,Inadequently Represented,"This product did arrive in good condition, for that I will award two stars.This product represents little information of what it does. I believe it only works with DVI signals having TV-Out.With my component television, the display has inaccurate colors (white is purple), no resolution setting (from 620x480-1280x1024) on many different hZ frequences solved the problem.This product is not intended for a normal video card (as in my Macbook Pro- which works great by the way)"
+6966,1,Good writing; too filled with atrocities for me,"I read the first two books in the trilogy; will not read the third. After awhile it palls to read a never-ending series of rapes, murders, and wholesale slaughters, including children thrown onto swordpoints or gang-raped to death in front of their parents. To be fair to the writer, I suspect he is using real-life descriptions from the crusades -- but in the end it was simply too sickening to me. Also: Every major character but one or possibly two (Achamian, maybe Esmenet) is a monster of one sort or another. In particular, the Prince-of-Nothing title character is technically human, but he is as vicious, manipulative, and alien as the ""Consult"" portrayed as the hidden enemy of humanity."
+6967,1,WHY BUY TOM TOM? WHEN YOU CAN GET BETTER? A LOT BETTER!,"I am a professional driver. I have compared many GPS systems. Tom Tom I rate the lowest! Comparing Tom Tom vs Garmin. Out of 4 different navagation systems I rate Tom Tom a Zero. This system is not as user friendly and is NOT as dependable. Garmin IS user friendly, easy to operate while driving (even though your not suppose to) and very accurate! You cannot beat Garmin in my opinion. I would buy Garmin before any other navagation system. GO GARMIN!"
+6968,1,"Almost like pulling teeth, although not quite as enjoyable.","I actually purchased this book by reading the online reviews on Amazon, I should have heeded the warnings about boredom. This book is a mish mash, hodge podge, and any other cliche you care to throw in there. The authors struggle to emulate the Adam's humor but only succeed in wasting the readers time. Overly verbose and dry, I found myself skipping long chunks of dialogue just to get to the ending."
+6969,1,Prostalex Plus,"Has not really helped with frequency of urination. Wouldn't recommend it.The best bet is Flomaxx, or a similar product."
+6970,2,I love this book,I bought this book years ago when I was single because I am an artist and loved the children's illustrations. It is a beautiful book filled with beautiful and colorful illustrations on every page that coincides with each of the poems and short stories within. I am now married and have a little girl and this book is currently part of her library. I hope she will treasure it as much as I still do.
+6971,2,Hare Krishna!,"Play it, chant and be very happy indeed! A beautiful album from start to finish. The recording quality is excellent too. I do suggest finding the CD that has ""Prayer to the Spiritual Masters"" on it. It's the one on Apple Records.Hare Krishna!"
+6972,1,Disappointed,We were into the second season when we realized there was a double disc and therefore a missing discI had to return the whole season
+6973,1,Have Not Received Yet.,"I cannot appropriately rate this game, because i have not received it yet. But looks good. I hope it is NOT a 1st person character play."
+6974,1,laughable,"to all heathens, satanists,Odinists, whatever, please stop with all this Kiss paint, inverted crosses and pentagrams. it is very childish. as Anton LaVey would say, ""The black metallers might as well be Christians"" he says this because even though they are ""evil"" their satanism is the Christian-defined satanism, which really makes it hard for people to take them seriously. But besides that, the music here is boring, redundant, and not ""evil"" in the least bit. Better luck next time."
+6975,2,Closed-Captioning,"For Deaf or Hard of Hearing folks,Sorry, there's no Closed-Captioning or English Subtitles on this DVD complete set of Mr. Bean. I am working on to get Mr. Bean Complete DVD set with closed-captioning. Please e-mail to aestoregeneral@aetn.com and request for Anthony Long - Online Customer Service to get an action with closed-captioning for Mr. Bean tv set, thanks.Jeb~"
+6976,1,Ugh.,"The writing itself isn't bad, but ultimately this is just one more so-called ""chick-lit"" book about an otherwise intelligent woman who makes bad decision after bad decision about men until she finally meets the man of her dreams who finds her insecurity adorably quirky. Ick."
+6977,1,DVD in Spanish with no English subtitles,"The movie is in Spanish. I have rented it before and viewed it with English subtitles. Now I bought the DVD for my own library, but unfortunately there are no English subtitles. There was no indication of that fact on the web site when I bought the DVD. I e-mailed the store about the problem, but never heard from them."
+6978,1,Very disappointed!!!!,"I recently bought this toy for my son for his birthday, we were very excited until we got it home and realized that you need to try so many codes on the DVD to finally get it to work. Then we finally got it programmed, only for it to work for about 5 min then short out. After two trips 30 miles to Toys R Us, I find out from their very rude employees(managers too)that I am stuck with the toy because they can only exchange for another one of the same toy. Contacting Fisher-Price was not any help either they just referred me back to the store."
+6979,1,Be very careful,"I liked this stand very much, and installed it in my garage about 1.5 years ago. The stand and bicycles came crashing down a couple of months back, putting a sharp dent in a car. The basic problem with this stand is that it relies on friction between the floor and ceiling to work. I'm guessing that as the seasons passed, changes in the weather caused the ceiling to move a little, perhaps even give a little (this is despite the stand being installed right where a truss is).Regardless of the cause, the net result is that over time, this stand will work itself loose, with potentially disastrous consequences.My conclusion? Get yourself a stand that is bolted to the wall/ceiling, or else find someway to secure this stand to the same---so nullifying the stand's raison d'tre."
+6980,1,Too small and Too slippery,"The bag is narrow and difficult to fill. You invariably end up with a mess which gets even more messy because the bag is made from a very slippery plastic. I had no luck using this bag, even though I gave it two chances."
+6981,2,Just for fun. . .,"The first thing that caught me about this game was the characters look NOTHING like they do in the movies. . . NOTHING. This didn't really upset me too much though. The game is a quick and challenging game. It took me 2 days to beat it. There is a trick to almost everything you do and fight. You get to be Frodo, Aragorn, and Gandalf(Gandalfs the best!). You can use magic with Gandalf, use a LONG sword and bows with Aragorn, and you can put on the Ring with Frodo. You battle people wolves and a multiple # of cave trolls and Orcs. Now I know this doesn't amazing but it's fun while it lasts. The graphics are pretty good if the characters looked like that in the movie. But this is a game to rent. You'll beat it too quickly. Although I highly recommend the second game, The Lord Of the Rings The Two Towers, that's also fun. So this is not the best game but it is fun."
+6982,1,it's sorta okay (kinda),There was no action. My stupid teacher made me read it. What an awful deal. The star wars series should have been the book to read. awful
+6983,2,Lid stand for cook stand,"I actually purchased this to use for some of our cast iron cookware that does not have the legs for cooking over coals. Its great, it allows you to use pots or skillets to cook over coals just like a dutch oven. Thinking about getting one more for cooking for larger groups. :-)"
+6984,2,The DVD is NTSC (not PAL).,"The DVD in this set is NTSC (not PAL) and plays fine in my standard North American DVD player. I haven't listened to any of the music yet, so I can't comment with regard to how this reissue sounds. I purchased this item from Amazon on December 8, 2010."
+6985,2,Great detective pair!,"A wonderful easy read! Lots of different plot twists and the introduction of the detective team, Inspector John Sanders and photographer Harriet Jeffries. They are first accidently involved in the international events relating to a trade conference in Canada, and are drawn into the action as it happens around them. The plot is well balanced with character development of these two, and I very much liked the contrast of Sanders analytical and careful thinking with Harriet's spunk and sense of justice. A wonderful pair, I can't wait to enjoy more adventures with these two!"
+6986,1,"Ok, not great","This is a very factual account of Eric Liddell's life, but there are better accounts out there. A bit dry to follow."
+6987,2,well...it does work...,"Based on other reviews I've read here it seems I'm not the only one who received a unit that reads in Celsius. It's no biggie. I travel abroad occasionally and it's not totally foreign to me. However, others should be aware.In most cases this unit will be outside and so its own readings won't be of any consequence. Both internal gauges read in F, so it's all good. But I do have to knock off a star for a less than perfect product.BTW, I purchased two of these to have a spare. Both read in Celsius."
+6988,1,Yuck!,Terrible! One of the worst films on an important topic I have seen. Absolutely unusable in a classroom.
+6989,1,"What you see, is not always What you Get !","Did not get the same color scheme/pattern as shown in the picture.Instead, it was more Vomit & Poop colored; making for a muddled, and an almost embarassing image.I will not wear it, so it is useless to Me.Contacted the Company, and asked if I could exchange it, as long as I paid the Shipping ,and got no response; except for : ""Make sure you leave us Positive Feedback.""Yeah sure...get right on that...just like you got right busy on my Customer Satisfaction. NOT !Now I guess it's up to Me to Re-Sell it on E-Bay or Craig's, and go buy something better.......FROM SOMEONE ELSE ! Live and Learn, Win Some, Lose Some, BUY WITH CAUTION !"
+6990,1,PRODUCT NEVER SHOWED UP,My items ordered did not show up. I had to request refund. I would have rather had the CD I ordered not the money.
+6991,2,A Tragic story,"As one of the characters in the book, I am grateful to Andrew Schneider and David McCumber for portraying what has happened to Libby, Montana and its residents so thoughtfully and thoroughly.The book is a ""must read"" for everyone.The story is far from over in Libby and around the country, but if what has occured in Libby serves as a lesson to other communities, it will be worth it.People can make a difference, if they don't give up and are surrounded by people that believe in them."
+6992,2,Great Pink Floyd album,"Animals is not as famous as ""Dark side of the moon"" or ""Wish you were here"" but this is a must have album.""Dogs"" is an amazing track, with great guitars solo from David.""Pigs"" (Three different ones) is a great track and a memorable rythm.""Sheep"" is stunning with his aggressive rythm guitar and great keyboard.""Pigs on the wing"" one and two, should have been mixed in one track.I know there is a version of it, mixed togheter with a guitar solo in between. Far superior than the two small cuts on the album."
+6993,1,Confusing but amusing,My 1 1/2 yr old laughs but I don't think it's bc the airplane is inside the airport. This RS I would not buy along w/ the bedtime stories one. The ULTIMATE RICHARD SCARRY is the Splish Splash Sounds book. Please and Thank You is really good too. There's some RS author controversy out there -something about the books not all being truly written by the RS author...
+6994,1,CRIKIE!! Are You KIDDING Me!?,"Beyonce of destiny's child!!!...YUCK!!... You can't understand a word she says!!!...She's a WORSE choice than Heather Graham was in sequel#2!!!! ~~~Spare Me, Baby!!~~~~~"
+6995,1,Try to find a replacement gasket,"Spend the money and get a better one.The gaskets trap and breed mold and are uncleanable even after you disassemble as much as you can. I would buy several replacement gaskets for the base and spout but they don't seem to exist anywhere.There should be a warning with this product. ""Discard machine when gaskets become disgusting and uncleanable"""
+6996,1,Complete Rip-off,"Beware. The picture is deceptive. What you get is 1 pipe (not a package) that retails for $3.59 elsewhere. 400% above retail. Furthermore, while it's not labeled when it arrives, it appears to Missouri Meerschaum's cheapest model, the Missouri Pride. It's basically a disposable pipe which is why a package of them makes some sense. Save your money. Go elsewhere and get one of Missouri Meerschaum's better pipes for half of what you'll spend here. Or, for that matter, go elsewhere and buy 4 of these for the same money."
+6997,1,Horribly contrived; of little practical use,"While other reviewers find this book to be a rewarding guide to team building and leadership, I have found that its incredibly poor and contrived prose led it to be virtually unreadable.The book contains no extraordinary revelations, although it does organize a few obvious tenets of effective teams. The fictitious team in the book is so unrealistic and the dialogue so poorly contrived that the whole piece reads like a bizarre amalgamation of a manifesto on corporate jargon and a fifth graders office drama. Any value in the content of the book was erased by the onslaught of cliches, the substitution of hastily sketched caricatures for realistic characters, and the overly chipper tone that one associates with a Public Service Announcement for the Department of Transportaton, rather than a legitimate piece of written work."
+6998,2,Bo Bice: Magic,"I just got my Bo Bice cd single from Amazon today. This CD rocks. We have been playing it all day here. If you know Bo Bice, you'll love this cd. If you are just getting to know Bo's music, you're in for something hot.Bo is the consummate musician, performer and vocalist. This is highlighted on In Your Heaven which Bo's rich smooth vocals caress like a lover.Vehicle comes to life with Bo's growly soulful rockin' interpretation. Accompanied by Richie Sambora on guitar, the combination is magical. This song is perfect for summer as it is a song you want to turn up and jam to.I can't wait until Bo's full-length cd comes out in the fall. He is an amazingly versatile performer whose voice is unique and unmistakably his own. Bo is a true original and I feel this cd is a must-have. Bo's musical journey is one I will be eagerly following. He's a magic man."
+6999,1,A third-grader could write a better book...,"I purchased this book after a friend recommended it. Let me just say she is no longer a friend. Ted Schredd might love life but he clearly hates taking the time to learn how to write. Not only that, but the story is lacking. Here it is in a nutshell, but written better...A guy rides his bicycle with a girl he just met. He cheats on her and finds another girl. The two of them then continue the odyssey and and beg anybody and everybody for: a) a place to stay, free of charge b) meals, free of charge c) bicycle equipment and support, free of charge. The end. I rated this book 1 star, but only because Amazon.com doesn't have a ZERO star rating."
+7000,2,essentially....great!!,"This is a wonderful book for showing you how to do all the basic preparations that make cooking fun, delicious and successful. You can easily page back and forth to find the subjects that interest you. This is an essential reference book that is beautifully photographed, easy to follow, full of terrific information and covers a wide range of topics. Anyone who is striving to become a better cook, at home or professioonally will enjoy this book as a valuable asset."
+7001,1,DREADFUL !,"Talk about style over substance, talk about copycat over-produced music, talk about ""musicians"" with merchant-like minds who is in it for the money.A mediocre album for the mediocre listener. The comparisons with Portishead is outrageous! This could be somewhere between Morcheeba and Mono and they're not even good bands to begin with.Trip-hop was once divine. But thanks to bands like SBL it's watered-down and used to launch poor careers of so-called musicians.I'm writing this review to tell you to stay away from this if you have any respect and love for the genre. This can not only poison your ears but your soul as well with it's cheapness and lack of originality.Check out Stereo Mc's, Unkle, Red Snapper, Archieve, the latest Tricky, DJ Shadow or even Erykah Badu instead if you wanna listen to mesmerizing vocals, groovy tunes and superbly written lyrics."
+7002,1,You get what you pay for...,It was off and on since I recieved it. Now it doesn't work at all after about a month
+7003,1,Excited by singles. Sadly underwhelmed by CD.,"I heard 3EB in concert, and was psyched to own their self-titled CD. When I finally got it, my excitement deflated like a punctured balloon.After you've heard ""Semi-Charmed Life"" and ""Jumper"", you've pretty much heard the whole CD. Just about every song sounds the same. Not a bad song, but it's just ten or so versions of it.The one exception is ""Motorcyle Drive-By"". I fell in love with that track. Unfortunately, that wasn't enough to justify the CD, in my mind."
+7004,1,Yuck !!!!,"This should be required reading material for POWs as part of a...spirit-breaking strategy. I believe Cisco keeps her around writting books as a way of keeping the number of CCNPs low.Those of you giving it a 5 star review have got to be either friends of the author, or dyslexic, which is why everything that is presented backwards makes sense to you.I have likened this book to a loud bar that lures you in with the promise of a date. There are lots of people in it, but your chances are slim to none, because even if you met someone, you would not be able to hear what he/she is saying.This book has the info, but just because it is there, it does not mean you will benefit from it, because the noise of...the writting might not let the info ""talk"" to you."
+7005,1,YUCK,"This book is not helpful for auditions, I ordered it thinking that they were selections from plays not written by the author, everyone knows that these type of monologue books are not useful to an actor as far as auditions, AMAZON.. can you please be more specific on these books! we need to know if they are excerpts from plays before we buy them!"
+7006,1,"12 partial songs from Frank, Dean and Sammy","Total running time is 23 minutes.

Recording quality is acceptable."
+7007,2,"Tough, Touching and Fun","The storyline is unoriginal and thinly wrought and oftentimes is nothing more than an excuse to get the protagonists into more trouble, but this book still succeeds. Roberson is successful in making characters that are not only interesting but endearing and this novel is tough and touching. The social issues that she touches on in this book manage to tough a raw nerve. A worthwhile read."
+7008,2,Just what I asked for,"Just as the title says I got everything I expected. Only issue was with the plastic case which had a broken clasp, no big deal"
+7009,2,"Excellent Memoir, great writing","This is one of my favorite memoirs, both for its difficult subject matter and the quality of writing. I couldn't stop reading this book and have since sought out other titles by the author.From the opening chapter you've drawn into the day-to-day obsession of addiction which, in the case of this author, is insidious despite its somewhat mundane appearance. Once she's brought you to the heart of addiction its easy to see how such a creeping and at first seemingly harmless relationship to alcohol can quickly go from social aid to problem crutch to full-blown need.In one of the most thought-provoking parts of the book she compares drinking, or any sort of addiction really, with exaggerated procrastination - an interesting take on addiction that still has me thinking.A must-read."
+7010,1,For the desperate-to-lose-weight housewife,"Was once an excellent, reliable mag, with all sorts of helpful information on different subjects. Now, it's mostly adverts with a few pages of info and recipes here and there, and half of it seems to be geared toward housewives who are intent upon watching every calorie. I guess if you're ocd about your weight and you're looking for another way to beat yourself up, this is for you."
+7011,2,GeniusCat,"I had the Omega box before this. The Omega box worked O.K. It did make cleaning poop easier, but sometimes the clumps would break up and throughly cleaning the box was a big hassel. Litter would sometimes come out from the sides when rolling.We had to move the box to a small linen closet so we needed something slimmer. Thats when we bought this litter box. This litter box is amazing. Our cat took to it right away and has had no problems using it. Cleaning up is actually pretty easy since this prevents a lot of the tracking the Omega box did not. The Clevercat Litter Box is very well made and just plain genius. Our dog cannot reach the poo poo anymore (we had to face the Omega Box toward the wall). It looks great too in the linen closet since it is small. Though it is small, the footprint of the litter box is bigger than the Omega box litter side. This was a great purchase."
+7012,2,AMAZING,"I have extremely sensitive skin and shaving/waxing just kills my legs no matter what shaving cream, razors, or waxes the spa use. This hair removal system is AWESOME! That's all I can say. It left my skin extremely smooth and removed all the hair on my legs with great ease! NO bumps, NO pain, just smooth hair free legs. I'm definitely going to continue to use this product. I have even told me friends about it who are now going to buy one. I was skeptical at first but this product amazed me! Even my boyfriend was amazed! I did both of my legs, upper and lower in about half an hour. I barely used any pressure when applying it to my legs. The key is DON'T press it hard - just glide it along your skin and it will work. I also used it on my arms and bikini area and it worked wonderfully! Like I said, this product is definitely worth keeping! Just make sure to read the instructions and do not apply too much pressure or else it won't work at all and you'll be left with rough bumpy irritated skin."
+7013,1,Not bad if it's your first smoker,"If you are just getting into smoking, then this one is not too bad if you don't want to spend big bucks for a more professional unit up front.Problems I'v had:1. On mine the grates would drop into the grill fire box until I took a couple of screw clamps and a couple of two by fours and forced the fire box to be retangular. Shouldn't have to do this. Char-Griller needs to make the lip that the grates sit on wider, and improve their manufacturing.2. There is too much of a gap between the lid and the grill fire box, leading to a lot of smoke and temperature loss. Once again, the manufacturing needs improvement. Again, I can fix this by adding more thickness, but I should'nt have to.3. The wire handles that lift the grate up and down are poorly made, and the little supports they sit on are too short. More than once the grate has fallen to the bottom of the grill fire box. I guess I'll have to add longer supports."
+7014,1,Falls out--gets lost,"I was happy with my original stylus. But, the replacement does not fit snugly inside the silo. Turning the PDA upside down causes the stylus to fall out. I've dropped the stylus six times in only two days. It's only a matter of time until I lose it. I am a very unhappy customer and will seek some other replacement pen.P.S. My PDA was replaced by Palm and may be defective. I cannot be certain that the problem I cite above is due to the stylus rather than the PDA itself."
+7015,2,Not so Perfect miter gauge,"I did not find this product so perfect out of the box. Yes, it's easy to set up (great instruction booklet) but I used the extra adjusters in the miter slot and still have a little play on a Powermatic 64A table saw. The biggest problem I have is that the fence is not 90 degrees to the table. It's 90 degrees but when you tighten the screws it's way off. I had to put shims in the fence attachment to get it accurate. My homemade sleds are much better than this for cross cutting. Fortunately I bought this for angled cuts which it is great for - so easy."
+7016,1,Watch out - many recipes contain gluten,"The book jacket on this book states that the recipes are suitable for those with wheat gluten allergies. When I read the recipes, I discovered that many of the recipes contain spelt flour. Spelt is a form of wheat. We are gluten intollerant, and no recipe with spelt would ever be OK on a gluten-free diet. If you are also gluten intollerant, plese be careful if you decide to try the recipes in this book."
+7017,2,original and cute,"I got baby frog pendant first - it looked nice and I LOOve malachite and I would give it 10 stars if I could. This is one beatiful Piece- heavy malachite bead and so detailed animal I got many-many compliments. When I saw earings I had to get them. The only reason I give them four stars, it's hooks - too thin, I almost lost them when I put it on for the first time. You have to get plastic stopers (.50 in any jewlery store)"
+7018,1,Didn't Live Up to the Promises,"Purchased this for my granddaughter's birthday and she wanted to try it out right away. 3 children and 2 adults tried to make these animals. Problem is it simply doesn't stay stuck together unless you make something simply like a round ball. The little plastic pieces would not stay for 2 seconds. It seems that in creating something that doesn't make a mess, which was a successful feature, they somehow made it so that it won't stay molded. All of us grew frustrated. I would not recommend this because while being no mess, it does not work well, and was no fun for the kids. Stick with PlayDoh, at least it sticks."
+7019,1,Mozart... A Fast Food Biography,"If you need a book in order to waste 10 minutes while waiting in line somewhere, and you don't know a thing about Mozart this book will work for you. The book is extremely simplistic, details are glossed over, and is an uneventful read. Mozart; with all his brilliant compositions deserves more than this."
+7020,2,Happy so far...,"My husband and I bought this vacuum after reading many of the thousand or so reviews online. We previously had a Hoover Wind Tunnel, which we were very pleased with. We decided to go with the more basic Hoover this time due to budget, and are very pleased so far. I especially like the fact that it is lighter weight than our old vacuum, since we have stairs now. Suction is wonderful, and I love that it is self-propelled! Only complaint I agree with is the ""cheapness"" of the attachments. I don't think they'll fall apart necessarily, but sometimes they don't click together all the way and pieces come undone during cleaning. Other than that, I would agree with all the rest - can't beat a Hoover!"
+7021,1,steve,"terrible ..no way is this 4.3 lbs of food..it is inetible.cheese comes in thin flat rectangle, the product does not even resemble the picture,,reviews must all be from people that sent it as a gift so they dont know how bad it is and the recipients dont complain.."
+7022,2,Poor Nancy,This was a great book and really gave you an insider view of Nancy's life growing up. Of everything I heard and seen on interviews of Nancy in the past this book explains her behavior and by the end of the book I had a whole different opinion of her. I truley felt bad for her in some cases and horrified on what her family went through with her. Great book and thinking on reading it again.
+7023,1,"Once, in Paris...","Once, in Paris, there was a dark little theater called the Grand Guignol. It presented, live and onstage, the type of horrifying, blood-drenched material we now associate with certain violent films. The plot of TCTTHW&HL could have been lifted straight from the Grand Guignol's playbook...it is said that the actors kept a scoreboard backstage of how many audience members they could make vomit in an evening.At the Guignol, however, the plays were, at most, 30 minutes long. The plot of this movie would have made a great Grand Guingnol one-act, --cumulating E.C. Comics tag line included--but O mama, TWO HOURS? Two hours of relentless brutality, SLOOOOW pans, and that SINGING?Here's a tip: If brevity is the soul of Wit, then it is also the saving grace of Horror. A reviewer above quotes a line from the bathroom scene: ""Short, sharp, shock treatment."" Pity the director didn't notice which word comes first.I'll pass on a second helping."
+7024,2,Informative and reassuring,This is a really good book with a lot of detailed information to help any women who are fixing to have a c-section or have had one. I had a difficult labor that ended in an unscheduled c-section and was very nervous about it. It read this book 5 months later and feel much better about the experience. Highly recommended!!
+7025,2,High quality clock,The Westclox Piper Twin Bell wind-up alarm clock is very high quality. The entire housing is made of steel as are the knobs for winding and setting the time. It has been keeping time perfectly since we received it and the alarm bells work nicely too. Compared to other wind up clocks I have had the ticking sound is relatively quiet. I would highly recommend this clock and it is nicer than expected for the price.
+7026,2,Wonderful product!,"This product is wonderful.Makes buttering hot corn-on-the-cob a breeze.Such a simple idea,and a great product.Easy to use,easy to clean.A little less easy to load,but worth the work!"
+7027,1,bad product,"The product is very bad. From the first game did, the material began to emerge from the palm of your hand .... to this date, I have 6 games and are already in very bad conditions ... were $ 35 down the drain ... no buy it ..."
+7028,1,Terrible tech support,"Update: After writing this review I checked HP's support site for the first time since February. They had a solution posted for this problem. Apparently the USB connectivity of the printer conflicts with its wireless capability. Solution: Disable the wireless connectivity. In the week since I did this I have had no crashes. Now if only HP tech support had told me this in February....I should have read the reviews on this site and others (CNet, epinions, etc.) before buying this printer. It appears HP either has a serious manufacturing problem or a serious software QA problem or both. HP replaced my original printer, which continually failed with the 'blue screen of death' problem reported by others. I waited EIGHT WEEKS for the replacement printer to arrive and it has exactly the same problem. I'll never buy another HP product."
+7029,2,excellent creations,"I never new you could make so many diffrent kind of develed eggs which are always a big spalas at any get together!! I actually made the ""green eggs & ham"" recipe to take to my group study with 15 other gals because I go by the name ""Sam""....soooo....Sam I am....I love green eggs and ham. They were wonderful. I added creme cheese to mind tho."
+7030,1,JUNK...JUNK ... JUNK,"I've tried 2 different remote starters by Bulldog Security. To me they were easy to install with the ""T"" harness. But they just don't work worth a darn. One of mine had a stated range of over 1,000 feet. It would not work more than 10 feet fom the car. It would not start the car in the driveway while I was standing at the back door of my house or while standing at a window about 30 feet from the car. And it was supposed to have a range of 1,000 feet ? Yeah right ! And like almost everyone says, it's like going through hell and high water to ever get a live person on the phone. And then they act like they don't give a rat's a_ _. They are definitely not customer oriented. Very inferior product and company. I will never think about purchasing one of their products again. STAY AWAY from these people and their products ! I gave it only one star because I had to give it a rating to post. It actually does not deserve even one star."
+7031,2,3.5 stars,"The Bible clearly states that God is omniscient, knowing all aspects of life from the genesis of time to beyond its end, and unchanging. Yet, Christians are still told to pray, despite the fact that if you think about it, everything about life is somehow already ordained. Does prayer make a difference, then? What is prayer? Is there a right way to pray? These issues and more are addressed with frankness and honesty in Mr. Yancey's latest book. All the answers are not definitively given, but this guide will help you in your path towards a measure of comprehension and perhaps give you peace about what you cannot completely grasp.Amanda Killgore"
+7032,1,Lousy RF range; ON worked from further away than OFF,"The range of use was practically useless. I could get about 10 - 15 feet of range for the ""ON"" button, but had to put the remote right against the receiver to get the ""OFF"" to even work. I bought this particular model because it had discrete on and off buttons, to make it easier for my elderly mom to figure out (was supposed to be used to remotely reboot her cable modem located in the basement), but in the end it was too flaky to let her fuss with it. I switched to a different unit which had about 50 feet of consistent, reliable range and tossed this one in the junk drawer."
+7033,1,I'm glad I borrowed this book from the Library,I had high expectations for this book but what a letdown...it was just plain dull.
+7034,1,"expensive toy, not an epilator!","I had a 4 years old epilator of another brand and it was still perfect. Than I came to USA and I encountered with a plug problem so I decided to buy a new one instead of buying a voltage adaptor. I read all the reviews about all the epilators within this price range and I decided to buy this one.I am using this machine for more than 6 months now and I can easily say that the thing this machine does may be described by many things; but epilating is not one of them. you have to go over, over, over, over and over on the same area to get rid off hair (I don't know if i put enough 'over's!!!).Finally today I felt so frustrated in the shower after spending 30 minutes for underarms(it usually takes less than 5 minutes with my old epilator) and I used a razor.I can't imagine a worse epilator than this one.The only good thing about this machine; it does not give any pain, since it does not pull any hair!"
+7035,2,Great Product,This product did exactly as it advertised. Use as directed and it will greatly reduce the effects of comsuning alcohol. Barely even knew I was drinking heavy the night before..!!!!
+7036,1,Think Twice or more before buying this one please for your own good,Static is the best way to describe this phone and both of the other reviews are more than correct. These phones are in the rooms on military bases. Unfortunately this proves that they seem to give our great men and women that serve this country all the throw aways nobody else wants. let's start treating them like the stars they are like the celebrities get please for they are true heros and deserve the best.God Bless America & the worldThank You
+7037,1,No wireless Range,"This had essentially no range for the wireless signal. Even 15 feet was too far for a connection, which makes this essentially useless as a wireless thermometer. I also did not like their buttons (the black horizontal stripes on the silver piece) - they were difficult to push - or more than they should be. Returning this to try to find one that will allow me to stand somewhere other than right next to the grill."
+7038,1,You MUST be kidding me????,"It's no wonder that the person/s responsible for this does not list the name and company. This is outrageous! Not only did they photograph the Gohonzon, but they put it on the cover, SIDE WAYS!?? That is the ultimate disrepect. At first I did not want to offend, but I just don't care now, SGI makes this kind of thing possible. Someone convinced this person that it is OK to do this. I don't know of any other sect that would do this. This goes to show that not everyone should be entitled to a Gohonzon. Think about that the next time you go on a Shakabuku campaign. This is what happens when people are bestowed Gohonzons so that others can become Chapter chiefs! The slander continues. I will chant for this person/s."
+7039,2,Great Publication,"This is a sound text to guide programs aimed at reducing target audiences' life stress. Concur that it is also a sound read for the general population as well. Mr. Gordon's review misleads potential beneficiaries of this text which is filled with a plethora of evidence based and efficacious information. Though there may be some shortfalls in terms of hard science, the text does not warrant absolute discredit."
+7040,2,"Of course it's good, but...","...like another reviewer, I wanted to be blown away- I will give it more spins to appreciate it more, tho- ""Rules Of Travel"" is a wonderful song, a little masterpiece- the rest, I'll have to absorb a bit more-"
+7041,1,Piece of junk,"Numerous voltage settings and adapters but that's where it stops. Plugged it into my iRiver H120 and caused all kinds of electronic popping, cracking, & static to be introduced into the line out feed. I've since used other adapters that do not suffer from the same problem. Piece of junk, stay away from."
+7042,1,A poor piece of work,"As a computer professional, I found this movie both pointless and technically flawed. As a previous reviewer has stated, this movie is indeed not ABOUT Hackers, but rather, it is a sterotyped look at at ego maniac cyberpunks who haven't a clue how to use a computer or what to do with one. The use of psychadelic colors throughout the movie is sickening, the plot is weak and disjointed, and the movie's title should have been named ""teenage cyber-dropouts from wonderland"". Do yourself a BIG favor and rent either Wargames (Old, but has a good storyline) or Sneakers instead."
+7043,2,social intelligence from an emotional intelligence perspective,"I won't say much, just that D.Goleman is writting social intelligence from an emotional intelligence perspective, and also his writting style has not changed (It could be improved, some examples are off topic etc).But overall, it's all good material there"
+7044,2,Excellent expedient service,I received this order quickly and I really appreciate the fast and accurate service
+7045,1,40% Polyester,"I needed a cool, 100%-cotton T-shirt to wear while working out. That's how Amazon described this product: 100% cotton. But what I received is 40% polyester---much too warm for workouts.Be careful when shopping from Amazon's Hanes T-shirt page. It's convenient because it presents T-shirts in a wide range of colors, in various fabrics, and from various vendors. But this multiplicity of options increases the risk of ending up a product different from the one you selected online._ _ _ _ _In looking over earlier reviews, I see that other customers have had the same problem. Perhaps Amazon and its vendors think customers don't really care whether a T-shirt is 100% cotton or 40% polyester. If you care, beware!"
+7046,2,The Everlasting Hatred: The Roots of Jihad,"I always expect the very best from Hal Lindsay and wasn't at all disappointed upon reading this amazing, knowlegable book! This well-written, insightful book is filled with easy to grasp facts and wisdom regarding the complexity of the subject, and has opened my eyes of understanding concerning the history behind what is happening in our time. This is an important book for anyone who wants a clear, Biblically prophetic understanding about what is going on in this world."
+7047,1,Dull account of a fascinating life,"This biography of L.M. Montgomery, marketed towards young adults, has nothing new to offer. It was mostly a rehash of Montgomery's own memoirs, titled ""The Alpine Path"". Plus, there was surprisingly little information about Montgomery's years after she published Anne. Perhaps it would have been at least an average bio if the author had illustrated some of Montgomery's experiences or parts of her life, but he really didn't even attempt to do that, with the exception of parts of some of her minor romances. If you are looking for a good L.M. Montgomery biography, try ""The Alpine Path"" or her journals to hear about Montgomery in her own words."
+7048,2,Decent Guide,Some useful information in here. Gives a low down on all the teams and plays in the game. Also gives some tips on Dynasty Mode. I play NCAA Football 2005 on the Wii so its kinda useful. Worth the $4.00 I paid but not much more.
+7049,1,better off buying seperately,"buying the bundle pack is a ripoff...121.99 for the 8 dvds in the bundle pack equals out to about $15.25 per dvd, which you can buy them seperately on amazon for about $5-8 a dvd...i bought all 8 seperately on here and my total was $57, less than half of the bundle pack and i got all 8 of the exact same dvds. i give a 2 just because of the price."
+7050,1,Go see for yourself how China has been changing,"This book is one of the garden variety of books that exploit the general ignorance of the American public about China. If you stoke rabid nationalism and xenophobia at a time when the U.S. feels vulnerable, you will have the cash register ringing. I wonder how many of those who have given a postive review of this book have ever been or lived in China--or that part of the world, for that matter. The world is already fraught with strife and violence without this kind of stuff. A responsible intellectual should not publish this kind of material without thinking about the ramifications of his or her actions. Well, that's freedom of speech. What can we say? And we sacrifice a few trees along the way for publishing it....."
+7051,2,Successfully using these clippers on my Persian cat,"I bought these clippers to use on my Persian-Chinchilla cat. She is a long-haired beauty, but gets matted very easily. I tried taking her to a professional groomers to be groomed, but they ran after me in the parking lot right after I dropped her off because they said she was too frantic to sit still!So, I thought, ok, I will enlist my husband's help and trim her myself. We are SO not cat groomers by any means. We used a pretty short blade on her and it worked wonderfully. It took the two of us to hold her down but in the end she got a beautiful trim.I noticed the clippers get a little hot after awhile, only on the on/off button where you hold it with your hand. But in all fairness, I think we took an hour to trim our cat so maybe we overused the clippers past their normal timeframe. I'm happy we got these clippers and now our Persian cat can look trim all the time."
+7052,2,A good light hearted read,Funny book. I found myself hoping that the authors imaginations were just that wild and that nobody in the real world would behave the way the parents did...but I'm thinking they embedded some kernals of truth throughout the novel.
+7053,2,What a great book!,"I bought this book at Williams-Sonoma last summer, and it has been a terrific buy. The book includes both ""real"" slow-cook Barbecue recipies, as well as recipies that work very well on the gas grill. I have made many of the grilling recipies (his ""cheater ribs"" and the southwest chicken wings have won me great praise), and have just purchase a Weber SMC to try the real barbecue recipies. I even bought a copy for a friend.This is a great book."
+7054,2,RED GLOVE COLLECTION,RED GLOVE COLLECTION By Karen Kinbsbury.Recieved book great condition. Book arrived when AMAZON told me it would be. Book was read cover to cover. It is a collection of four books. I looked forward to getting back to each story. All four books tugged at my heart I did laugh cry and thank the Lord for my many blessings. Everyone should read this collection. I will pass the collection onto my daughter.
+7055,1,This book is Terrible and I should know,"Author Joan Mellen asked me if she could interview me for a book on Jim Garrison, the former DA of New Orleans who investigated the assassination of JFK. I worked for Garrison as a photo-analyst. Joan Mellen spent hours interviewing me in my home. I gave her information that had never been seen or revealed. She distorted the information and attacked me on a personal level though she never indicated that she was going to do that, I suppose because she thought I wouldn't grant her an interview. While I respected and admired Garrison's work, Mellen attributed to me things I never said. She annotated some of her statements but not some that were attacks on me. How serious can you take a book written by someone so irresponsibly?"
+7056,1,So close and yet so far,"I am a die-hard Tom Hanks fan so any book about him and his awesome career belongs in my library. This is a good one, but there are some serious downfalls in it. I am not sure if the authors are just overly impossibly critical or what, but they refuses to see the good side of his work in the early days. I was depressing. If you know anything about actors you know that they are not all overnight success. Why can't they deal with that? I was able to forgive them this type of criticism until I read about Sleepless in Seattle. Where was the editor the day these pages came in? Sam Baldwin's sons name is Jonah, not Joshua!"
+7057,1,Mt Great-Great Uncle,"I only bought this because my Great-great uncle, Ross Santee, was featured in it for about 15 seconds. The video was made in 1939, when color had just come out, and the quality of the color is awful. Shadows in people's faces are green. The story line is so basic any kid could predict the ending. Still, it was well worth $10 for me to have a tiny bit of memorabilia of my long-distant family member."
+7058,2,Excellent source of information,"As other reviewers have mentioned, this book starts out kind of slow. It goes through the description of the how the economy came to be in such a bad shape and then describes how it fell. It was not something I personally cared for. However once you get past the details of how the U.S.A. economy crashed the book takes you on a winding path of survival and patriotism.The book is a great source for anyone wanting to know more about preparing for any long term emergency. The author goes into detail about what equipment the characters have and where they got modifications to those pieces of equipment. He then goes on to give an appendix listing where most of the items can be purchased or services rendered.All in all, I gave it 5 stars not only for the great source of information but the very entertaining fiction read.Also if you enjoy this book you will most likely enjoy ""Lights Out"".[...]"
+7059,1,A writing lesson needed,"Whether the you agree or disagree with the author's conclusions and the robustness and reliability of the research that informs them is a personal choice. What struck me most about the book is how badly written it is - something I'm afraid it shares in common with a great number of celebrity biographies puiblished today.Natalie Wood deserves better than an author who does not know the difference between the words ""determinism"" and ""determination"" or how to use them correctly, to give just one example. The author also seems unable to construct sentences in a logical sequence. Very often it's unclear who the author is quoting.As I say, the content may or may not be accurate - the style, I'm afraid, is poor."
+7060,1,No Latex,If you intend to spray latex.. do not waste your time. It's good for spraying stains and that is about it...
+7061,1,I used to somewhat like this band....,"but it just gets kind of old, this album has a few gems, and the rest is just screaming and pure noise. the best songs are the ones where there is actual singing in it, it provides a good mix and a change of pace.""Wait and Bleed"" is by far the best song on the album and i never seem to get tired of it. ""Surfacing"" is also pretty good along with ""Spit it out"" and ""Me inside""(Although a little too short.The rest of the album is just a bunch of incomprehensible screaming, deafening guitars, a couple of clowns(literally) hitting trash cans and a drummer thats so good he really seems out of his element."
+7062,1,Spoiler alert: nothing happens.,"Two guys named Jerry trek soundtracklessly though the anything-but-beautiful wastelands of Argentina, Jordan, & Death Valley, & probably the least interesting place in Utah. If you've ever lived in the desert & moved somewhere green where it actually rains, this movie will make you glad you did.This movie actually managed to be more boring than 1981's ""Night of Terror"", but if you have someone in your family who suffers from insomnia or a naughty child in time-out, then this is the perfect sedative/torture for you."
+7063,2,Jeff Dunham,Simply the BEST and funniest comedy act there is because it's always fresh while continously funny!
+7064,1,Yuk,This is not a healthy way of losing weight or detoxing. And drinking a gallon of salt water every morning is the nastiest thing anyone will ever do. It's pure torture. I do not recommend.
+7065,2,The Last Waltz concert video,The only problem I had with this purchase was the the first thing that was sent to me was an empty dvd case. Amazon's automated online customer service doesn't have an option for a case like this. And clearly they discourage phone calls since no contact number is listed anywhere. But with a little research I was able to find a number for them. Once I called the problem was fixed promptly. I was sent a new dvd within 2 days at no charge. The representative was polite and corrected the problem promptly. The dvd itself is good. I like The Band and all the celebrity preformances are great. I just wonder why the version of the song The Weight is not from the concert. It is a prerecored version of the song with The Staple Singers. Not my favorite version of the song. Would have been nice to see it done live.
+7066,2,Absolutely Wonderful!,Mark Atkinson and his sidemen are stellar. They are fountains of musical ideas and the full spectrum of felt expression - from sparkling joy to introspective serenity. You can't go wrong - buy all his albums.
+7067,1,Couldn't get past step one!!!,I bought this stroller and couldn't even open it! I brought into a popular baby store that carried it to see if they could show me how...to no avail. They were kind enough to take that one and give me one from their stock...but that one had the same problem. I gave up and did not try again. Unfortunate b/c the 14lb weight was sooo appealing!
+7068,2,Great price!,I use cloth diapers primarily but needed disposable pull ups for pre-k. The price and quality of the pampers easy ups on Amazon can't be beat. I love shopping on Amazon and have rarely been disappointed.
+7069,2,Classic Artist meets Great Producer,"In true, raw Soul, you can go ""home again"" - if the singer keeps to his roots, has good lyrics, a good studio, a good mix, real musicians playing real instruments in real time. Mr. John Tiven even provides guitar and organ (and wrote some here too).Also on the scene to help make it work are historic names like Don Covay and Dan Penn.The title song sounds every bit as fresh as any *released* material from the '60s or '70s from WP; ""Soul Survivor"" is another cut that could have made-the-cut on any of the early albums.Pickett himself is co-composer on *five* tracks, and there are no tentative fillers, either. Some songs imply that the star is willing to offer painful, confessional reflections, no holds barred - he admits to playing rough with players willing to play dirty.OLdies But Goodies are great - witness Wilson in ""Blues Brothers 2000"" - but what a gift this is to record collectors - and any other fans of gritty, corporeal Soul."
+7070,2,AWESOME,THis is my favorite knife ! I am so glad i bought this instead of the chinese made bear grylls one. I haven't found the limit on this blade yet. Cuts through anything. I have used it for chopping and as a wedge. The handle smashes nuts and can be used as a blunt instrument with ease. The sheath is durable and has a few different configurations. I was even impressed with GERBER and the help i got with a few questions about it before i made the buy. Very happy
+7071,1,"Good sound, bad fit.","I bought these as a replacement for my stock I-pod headphones because my cat chewed them apart. These headphones sound great but never stay in your ear even without the extension. I never had this problem with the I-pod headphones. The extension, that is needed because they are to short without it, weighs them down and makes them fall out as well. They also look like they are sticking out of your ears and the cord tangles every time you take them off. I wouldn't suggest to anyone to buy these."
+7072,2,Great stylus for the iPad,"This stylus is awesome! It works perfectly and glides across the screen. This is the third one that I bought. I bought them for my wife and daughter and they love it also. It may be expensive, but you get what you pay for."
+7073,1,This is an old edition,"WARNING -- WARNING -- WARNINGDelorme published a 5th edition in 2003. This edition (4th edition) is an older one. If you want the most currecnt edition you will need to look else where. This edition is copywright 2000 with information that appears to be accurate to 1999. New roads, etc not on this edition.Although it will probably be acceptable for many uses, just make certain that you are willing to buy the older edition."
+7074,2,Touches the Heart,"WOW! Jessica Simpson's song is incredible. Like the title says, her song really touches the heart. If you have ever been in love, the song really describes how you can feel. Her voice is sooo beautiful. The power in her voice reaches out to you and lets you know its serious. I am so inspired by her wonderful voice, I am promoting her new CD by passing out stickers that look like the cover of the CD. I was asked to do this by an important music company. When I was asked, I said YES, right away. Jessicas song is not only powerful, it's very emotional. It gets your feelings all worked up, happy and sad."
+7075,2,great support,"This bra provided very good support for high impact sports. I have tried several other sports bras, but due to a large cup size, have had difficulty finding one that gives this level of support. It does fit tight, but not uncomfortable."
+7076,2,created a love of reading and history,"I too was given this title as ""required"" reading as a student in 8th grade in Canada. It still remains a book that had an enormous impact in my love of reading!"
+7077,1,Ok Singer,"I listen to a whole lot of French albums from many talented French artists. I'm not sure how i came across Carla Bruni. I listened to her album, and personally, i didn't get anything out of this. She has a lovely voice, but it's nothing special, and sometimes I felt that it gets bland after the first few songs. And the music itself is just too dull. Don't assume that jazz is not my taste, i love jazz/blues music, but this to me was just dull for the most part."
+7078,1,Older Natural Pro much better,"The default behaviour of the F-Lock key is really annoying as it defaults to leaving F5 as Open (essentially Ctrl-O) which makes it difficult to refresh a webpage from the keyboard.Also of GREAT annoyance are the Insert / Home / Delete / End / Page Up/Down buttons. Specifically, there ISN'T an Insert button. For those of us who use Ctrl-Insert and Shift-Insert to copy and paste, this is a major defect. Second, the buttons are in the incorrect configuration. Instead of the years-long standard of 3 buttons across by 2 buttons down, they are 2 buttons across and 2 down on one side and 3 down on the other."
+7079,2,"Stark, well-done adaptation - Not for the Kiddies","A very stark and powerful adaptation of the Orwell classic...a true surprise considering it premiered on TNT. Although the ending may have been sightly ""lightened"", the film as a whole is very adult and may be too intense for young children expecting another ""Babe"" movie. Definitely way above-average for a tv-movie...PLUS, the DVD version is actually in WIDESCREEN although the keepcase and every other listing indicates it's in it's TV ""full-frame"" version! So you get that definite bonus plus lots of kind of worthless extras...but it's definitely worth the very reasonable price. Image quality is excellent as well...I noticed no pixelization at all."
+7080,1,AcuRite is AcuWrong.,"I plugged this clock in and waited 24 hours for it to correct the time shown, which was 4 minutes slow. It never self corrected so I set the correct time from my atomic watch. The clock lost about 1 minute per month. I set the correct time from my atomic watch. It lost about 1 minute per month (rinse and repeat). After several months I looked up the Chaney web site and described the lack of performance by e-mail with no response. I called the support phone # but never spoke to a human being (they were busy handling other's complaints. I saw where I could return the clock for service but they wanted more than 25% of the cost sent with the clock. I decided that it will be cheaper to buy a clock from another manufacturer. I suggest that you do the same."
+7081,2,Great value,"Purchased as a Christmas gift for my teenager. The watch is easy to adjust lights up nicely and has multiple functions such as a stopwatch, and fits the wrist comfortably. Great value for the money."
+7082,1,Worthless piece of crap,"I purchased these speakers for my boat, and they started falling apart just as the warranty ran out. I used the boat very little and the stereo even less. They were not exposed to the weather because the boat is kept covered. I had Pioneer car NOT marine speakers with paper cones in the boat for 5 years. They were not weather resistant at all, but they lasted. The Sony speaker's claims to be UV and salt water resistant but the cones turned brown and bent out of shape. And the black foam around the cones looks like the glue is letting go. If you need a good set of speakers DO NOT BUY THESE. I did contact Sony and because the warranty expired 2 months ago they said they could do nothing."
+7083,1,Is there some music behind the base ?,"Hi,We know that Madonna is inovating, but I think she missed it here. When listening this album on an ordinary cd-player things will be ok. Ones you use a better quality stereo tower, you do not hear any music anymore. It's only heavy base you hear. The music would be a 3-4 star if you would leave out the base.Sorry Madonna, CD will not be listened to often."
+7084,2,very addictive,"I recently disovered the wonders of Accuradio and, in particular, the station TWANG. It is awesome. There are a few CD's that are in heavy rotation other than Johnny Cash or Willie Nelson. This is one of them, and for good reason. It sounds new and old, and Wayne's voice does have an uncanny resemblance to a certain Hank Williams. The music has this quality that you rarely hear of being familiar and completely unique at the same time. Hat's off to the band for making it sound oh so easy. It's toe tapping heaven."
+7085,2,Fascinating story,"I picked up this book at a local used book store, and have to say that I loved the book. It reads like a novel, and it puts into perspective what Cortes and his gang went through while exploring Mexico.I couldn't put this book down, and now want to learn more about the conquistadores of Latin America. It's a shame that the book is out of print, since it is really good."
+7086,2,Before the MDW,"Speaking as another one of those ""old rockers"" who supposedly doesn't know anything about music, I would like to submit Fools Gold for your approval. This was the kind of Music (yes capital M) that us old folks were fortunate to live.That is before we entered the current musical desert wasteland (MDW). Super voices, lyrics you can understand, along with great arrangements--it doesn't get much better than this. Dan Fogelberg, God rest his talented soul, sure did know talent when he heard it. I am so glad these are available on CD now. Don't wait! Get the two Fools Gold CD's while they're still available."
+7087,1,Hypocrisy,Mr. Haqqani has dubious credentials as he has served in a number of very corrupt governments in Pakistan's problematic history. Although I agree with some of his views overall he has vested interests that do not allow him to be a honest contributor to Pakisan tumultous history.
+7088,2,Excellent tool,"I have been very happy with my B&D 24-inch hedge trimmer. It is light weight and reasonably powerful, taking down small branches as well as pruning hedges. For the money, it is first rate."
+7089,1,This seller is a thief,"I never recieved my item, although my credit card was charged. I recieved an email that my item was shipped and never heard anything again. I emailed the seller and they have refused to respond to me. Upon reading reviews I have learned I'm not the only one."
+7090,2,Awesome!!:),"This game is really awesome! I bought it for my daughter.She thinks she'll be addicted to this game. The animals are really cute! The only thing she doesn't like is that you can only see two pets at one time. Yes you can have more pets, but you can only see two (of your choice) pets out of their kennels at once. Other than that it's really neat!!!! We recomend it to so many people who don't have a dog or cat, and those who do!"
+7091,2,We love Paprika's Lullabye,"My 3 1/2 year old son adores this CD. We listen to it in the car almost daily, and now at night, he has begun to request that I sing him ""Paprika's Lullabye."" Since I have heard it so many times, I am happy to oblige. It's a sweet lullabye full of delicious images for little ones, even including a moment worthy of Edith Piaf in there!"
+7092,1,Madagascar,"My husband and I, both 63 of age, watched this movie and wished we'd seen reviews before. It was a bore. Nothing like other animated films we've watched and enjoyed. In fact, we want to give it away but don't know to whom. Won't send it on to our grandkids as it doesn't have a good story for kids. Not many movies can we say this about. We have about 300 in our colection and this is only the second we've purchased that we wished we'd saved our money on."
+7093,1,Read something else,"The book looks intriguing, but keep going. I couldn't even finish the book. Time is too precious to waste on this title."
+7094,2,DeWalt Circular Saw is Great,I have owned this saw for about 5 months now and I am quite impressed with it's performance. I have purchased several DeWalt products (mostly their saws) and have found very few flaws in their products. This saw is plenty powerful and the adjustments are a snap to make. The case is strong and the base plate is better than any other circular saw I have ever seen or used. I would highly recommend it.
+7095,2,perfect for the price,"except for the color, these speaker stands were just what we needed. The quality is great and the shipping time and delivery were awesome...as usual."
+7096,2,Helpful and Fun :),"I'm taking organic chemistry right now, so I thought it'd be a good idea for me to buy this model set. Some of the reviews said that a single set does not contain enough pieces, so I bought two just in case...I ended up not needing it that much in the fall semester, but that was more due to my learning style than anything else. When I did use it I had SO MUCH FUN. I felt like a nerdy little kid again, and it was awesome.In all seriousness, I wouldn't use this set on an exam because it takes a little while to put the pieces together and take them apart, but for homework problems involving molecules that you just can't visualize (especially tricky stereochemistry problems), it's really helpful. We'll see if I use it more for organic chemistry this spring, or for inorganic chem next year.My only real complaint is that even with two sets you can't make buckminsterfullerene...you need 60 carbons for that... :("
+7097,1,Not quite what I wanted,"This book only covers human / medical biomaterials. It wasnt' really clear from the information online that that's it. If that's what you want, it's probably very good - but I am much more interested in non-humans (animals and plants and stuff)."
+7098,2,"Quick, Easy and Delicious","I bought this book because I don't have alot of time to cook dinner. I also happen to like Thai food. I had no idea I would use it as much as I do. Almost everything can be cooked in one wok or pan. Most of the recipes can be made within a half hour. Best of all, it has really opened my mind to using ingredients I have not been accustomed to using, such as fish sauce and chile paste. Although I had to order some of the ingredients, they keep for a long time and the recipes in this book use them so often that there is no wasting money by buying an ingredient I will only use in one or two dishes. I use this cookbook at least twice per week for dinner. Very highly recommended."
+7099,1,What a piece of CRAP!,"I payed $119.00 for this VCR. Used it four times in seven months.All of a sudden one day I turned it on to use and no power.I then sent it back to the JVC service center in Aurora Ill. Recieved a servic request on Feb.23. They never asked sent me an estimate of asked me if I wanted them to fix it. Didn't hear anything for a month, so on March 6, 2005 I decided to go online to see the status of my repair. There I found they listed my VCR as ""refused repair"" I never refused anything. Then looked to see the estimate to fix it was more than I paid for it. $122.00.Don't buy JVC products they rip you off with there ridiculous repair costs. Plus False communication between customer and service center. What a piece of CRAP!"
+7100,1,Buyer beware,"The items listed are not the items you will receive. The correct listing should be ""Klingspore"" paper not ""Performax"". The Klingspor paper is a decent paper, but it is not the same quality as Performax. It will wrap on the drum just fine, so if it was hand cut they did a good job there. However it does not sit as well on the drum in my limited experience with it."
+7101,1,Buyer Beware,"This Book Sells Snake Oil... Kevin Trudeau sells this book on an infomercial, and then the book sells the website. There is no real information in this book; it refers you to his website which you have to pay to join. Kevin Trudeau is not even a college graduate. His claims are largely bogus. For example; go and get fifteen colonics in a months time. Colonics cost about $70 each, so that is $1050 for the month. I don't know about you, but that seems like a stupid and dangerous endeavor. Take my advice... don't buy his books. He is a billionaire because he is so good at selling these scams. It's embarassing that I fell for another one... Never again."
+7102,1,hypnotic = not a good thing.,"I tried to read this book. I really did. But I quickly realized that I had absolutely no sympathy for the narrator, and her writing was consistently flat and boring -- rather than ""hypnotic."" I did not care about her, her marriage, her children, nothing. If there's anything good about the book, it proves that the privileged can have singularly uninteresting lives and minds. Before I bought it (I am returning it for a refund), I thought the author was african ... which might have made the story more faceted and interesting. But she isn't, and I am now convinced her name must be an anagram."
+7103,2,I loved this book!,This book is my favorite book. I like the way that Judy Blume writes books that I can relate to. I think that all girls should read this book. It has given me insperation for life.
+7104,2,Awesome,"When I got this cd, I thought, oh a another cd of music, but when slipped it into my cd player, and the music started, the amazing sound, the words of the songs, touched me, simply amazing, country fans have been waiting for a group like this. This is an up and coming group who's time is now. I encourage everyone who loves pure country music, to go buy this today, price is even good. I've been listening to the cd daily for a month, it gets in your head and you find yourself thinking about what the music is telling you. I'm looking forward to the next cd this group puts out."
+7105,1,angry and confused,I never received the product or an explanation even after inquiries with Amazon and seller.
+7106,2,Works as Advertised,Am using the two-way shoe stretcher to help accommodate a bunion. It is really helping....the only problem is using it on all my many pairs of shoes.
+7107,1,TOTAL WASTE OF RODNEY DANGERFIELD & DOM DELUISE,It it were possible to give less than 1 star this Mob turkey yarn would get it. I bought it because it had Rodney Dangerfield but fell asleep watching it. This film had great potential to be a great mob SPOOF film along the lines of the many Mel Brooks's spoof films but was utterly runied by a poor script.
+7108,1,Most disappointing,"Whilst the device seemed to function adequately, the range of books available was lamentably inadequate. Of five random choices only one was available. No good to me, so I returned it - have yet to be re-imbursed mind you. D. Black, Scotland"
+7109,1,Terrible...just terrible,"Well, I rented this flick just to see what it is like. The acting was non-existent. CGI effect was laughable. Plot was thin and predictable. The characters were a joke. The only good thing about this was Glori Anne Gilbert who portrayed the porn star one of the crew constantly fantasized about... OK, make that two good things... LOL! :)"
+7110,1,Warning!,"Warning! I love Fun Fun but I never buy CD's from Hot Productions anymore. They both look and sound cheap. It's known among music fans that the sound quality is awful on their CD's, so stay away from them!"
+7111,2,well Done,A fantastic adventure that follows the story well. The casting is fantastic.This show helps me get over my longing forDeadwood.
+7112,2,Voice of liquid gold,This CD is lovely whether hearing the Italian or English songs.The arrangements are beautiful with full orchestral backup. His voice is like liquid gold. A young man with a seasoned voice...the melodies will play in your head all day. Just wonderful..
+7113,1,Not quite long enough?,"I was so excited waiting for this CD and felt a huge letdown when I first played it. I have listened to it at least 50 times hoping that it would grow on me. Nope. I was feeling pretty bummed because I had purchased tickets for myself and some friends for his concert at the Orpheum in Madison. Having praised him so much, I thought the concert would embarrass me and my musical tastes. Wrong. The concert was excellent, including the new stuff. Jonny needs to take another look at his production team because they did him a grave injustice on this CD."
+7114,2,Amazing Writing of Texas Life As It Was,A great read. Better than most western writers of the old school. Brings out the reality of the way life must have been for our forefathers that helped to bring Texas to what it is today. Great character depiction. I could picture them standing in front of me as the story moves along at a good pace. I look forward to enjoying more books by Newcomb in the days to come as well as searching back for some good missed reading.
+7115,1,Odd Shape,"Pros:ComfortableVery SupportiveNice Lace(Can't comment on durability - I returned it)Cons:SHAPEI found this bra to give my breasts a very bizarre shape. Not cone or bullet shaped, but definitely too perky- my breasts pointed up. If you look closely you can actually see the shape on the model in the picture. I didn't notice until I tried it on myself but then I looked back at the picture and sure enough - they point up. I think everyone has a different idea of an appropriate breast shape so my advice is to look very carefully at the picture being mindful of the shape- if it looks good to you then you might like it. It is also possible that with bigger breasts the extra gravity might balance out the extra lift and make a nice shape. (I am a 40D)"
+7116,1,Poor quality and poor manufacturer support,"When I first got this monitor I was thrilled. It's sleek looking and the 2 inputs were nice, since I could use it for 2 machines. I started to notice there's a lot of light bleeding in on the edges... a lot more than I notice on my LG or my Dell Notebook screen. Then I was faced with a permanent green stripe down the left side. After much trouble, I finally got a replacement sent from Viewsonic.The replacement is almost as bad. I've got all sorts of image ""burning"" (where it looks like my last screen is embossed onto the background). I'm now going to have to go through the whole hassle of trying to get this replaced again, as it makes the picture quality terrible.so far, 2/2 have been terrible, and the manufacturer support hasn't been very good, they forgot to send my last replacement for a couple weeks (said it'd bee 3-5 business days).Don't buy this model, and carefully consider the entire manufacturers line..."
+7117,1,Not as the picture shows,"This lamb is laying down and is about 12"" or less long. It does not sit as in the picture and I would not describe it as a pillow pal (not like the ones you can use as a pillow). Very unsatisfied with the description online. I never would have paid $5 s/h if I had known I was getting this small thing!"
+7118,2,Mogical,"Paddy Crosbie's book is an enchanting account of what life was like in the Dublin before Ireland became cosmopolitan. At the time Paddy Crosbie grew up Ireland was still finding it's feet as a free nation, and Dublin was struggling to become a proper European capital. As a Dubliner I can say we take it all for granted now. But this book really makes you realize how much Dublin has changed. It describes events like the War of Independence and the Civil War from the point of view of the children who grew up in their shadow. But best of all, despite all this the book is witty, charming, touching and very well written. A great book about a time and a place that will never come again."
+7119,2,listen to it drunk and high,"listen to this drunk and high and you will initially laugh and say ""my god, it sounds like noise/anarchy/christ has just died and is in the process of being resurrected"".after awhile, you'll say, ""my god! ive never heard anything quite like it!""then you'll give it four stars like i did."
+7120,1,Terrible!,"This is one of the most user UN-friendly devices I have ever purchased. I have several bluetooth devices which are easy to setup and work great. These headphones take a great deal of trial and error and guest work to set up. When I finally did get them up and running, the sound quality was very disappointing.I am amazed how (apparently) difficult it is to build good sounding stereo headphones (I could care less about stereo phonecalls). I would give this product ""0"" stars-but that is not an option."
+7121,1,Mike Trout's Cycling is less than Awe-inspiring!,"Even though I am a fan of Focus on the Family, and Mike Trout was the co-host of the broadcast when I read this book, I found it did not hold my attention. His descriptions of the places he stopped could have been enlarged, as well as the people he met and the sights he saw. He was accompanied by his son in law, and planned the coast to coast route which was not necessarily the easiest, but one which passed through Colorado, home of Focus on the Family.I agree that this could have been a full length magazine article instead of a book and certainly I would encourage readers to borrow it or check it out of the library. It is not a keeper in my opinion. Sorry Mike, I liked you as co-host, but as author, well, you are just so so."
+7122,1,Please See The Photos I Uploaded,"The metal has no temper and is very soft. As you can see from the three photos that I have uploaded, how distorted the metal has become only after 2 or 3 uses. I do still use it because its all that I have but come on man.... I think plastic would have been better than this. I am a verified purchaser, and very disappointed. For those who gave 4 & 5 stars I just don't get it unless the intended use was for your small children."
+7123,2,Dexter,"Unusual story line, quite a bit of psychological interplay. Excellent characters. Very entertaining. I recommend this product although rather gruesome at times."
+7124,1,Better economy elsewhere,"While I don't particularly find much use for most of HP's premium paper line, their glossy papers offer a sufficiently distinct printing experience that one can easily find a use for them. They make excellent paper for final copies of work you intend to display, or even for stuff you merely intend to archive.This glossy, however, is not particularly recommendable because of its low value-for-money. Only ten sheets are available here. For virtually the same price you can get their professional brochure & flyer paper, which is double-sided and comes in a 50-pack. I therefore can't see an economic rationale to buying this otherwise excellent paper. Look for HP product number C6817A instead."
+7125,1,Came damaged but is also cheap,"I was disappointed with this product. The tab is broken on one of the days, which makes it very hard to open. Also, the lid won't stay closed on another day. Plus, the trays don't click into the stand, they just kind of rest inside it and slip out very easily. I am returning this item."
+7126,2,Thanks Dane you almost got me killed!!!!,"OK to say this cd/dvd is funny would be the understatement of the year. I got it in the mail on my lunch break. stupid me puts it on in the car on the way back to work. Needless to say I laughed so hard I started crying, couldn't see and almost ran into oncoming traffic. Every one around me was like ""ummm...Hello?????"". Since then I have shown the DVD to everyone I know, and I think they have a new favorite comic! If you like funny...BUY THIS CD/DVD!!!!!!!it is great to be able to have the DVD at home, and keep the CD in the car(if you are careful of course)"
+7127,2,Good Product,Bought it for my Dad. He loves it. Easy to read. It is pretty bright in a red LED way so not good for bedroom however makes a decent night light for navigating a room in the dark. Easy to read from far distances day or night from all angles.
+7128,1,What happens when you mix oil with water?,"Answer: You got this album.I have been into heavy metal for about 18 years. I have been into classical music for about 4 years. When you mix them you basically have ""The Thing That Should Not Be"".Metallica should have never mixed the classics from ""Ride the Lightning"", ""Masters of Puppets"", etc. with an orchestra. This creates an ugly mesh, where you hear the thunder of a guitar followed by the gentleness of a violin.They should have wrote the entire album based on new music, like ""No Leaf Clover"" (the reason for the two stars and not just one).I know that the Moody Blues were able to mix their hits with orchestra, but their music was more mellow and it blended well. Old Metallica songs border with what was called in the '80s thrash metal.What happens with this album is that with many of the songs the electric guitars overpower the orchestra. It sounds as if it is more of a competition, than a composition."
+7129,1,Not what I thought!,I bought it at Bed Bath and Beyond because of their return policy. After 3 uses I noticed a dusting of black powder that fell into my batter (only noticeable because my batter was cream color. I took my machine back and was told that another customer returned theirs as well for the same reason. Pay attention to your batter.
+7130,2,Very inspiring and spiritually fulfilling,"As I read through the lines of Betty J. Eadie's NDE account,I realized how truly special we are. That the idea of deathis not the end, not painful; is something very comforting tolearn. Now I am a firm believer that we, human beings, areall important, all souls with a mission in life and that ourtime on earth is a very important one as well."
+7131,1,Don't buy if you are serious about trekking,"I had a good mind in investing in an Osprey backpack and had been tracking prices for a long time. Seeing a similar backpack - Nebo's - for 40$, I figured it would be worth it as I wasnt going to trek too much this year. Right from the start, the bag was a disaster. There is not too much volume to place your stuff inside even though the bag looks huge. There is a sleeping bag compartment or something of that sort with a black body bag that hands loose. It is practically useless. The plastic snaps that can be used to tighten the straps were just that - plastic. Trying to roll my bag into place and tightening it, the plastic snapped and flew on my face. And I hadnt even started packing yet. It is made in China. Need I say more! Do not trust your fun trip with this. an Eastsport school bag will serve you better. Atleast mine has!"
+7132,1,A cheap novel with some insights,This cheaply constructed story was engrossing but so full of self-absorbance and self-hatred and so pointless...A major disappointment and a sellout
+7133,1,Mine quit retracting after the thrid use.,This thing is of mediocre quality at best. Mine quit retracting within the first week of using it.
+7134,1,Unworthy,"Who killed Hercule Poirot? It's difficult to believe that David Suchet enjoyed his performance in this production. I have read, and loved, all of Agatha Christie's books. Suchet's demeanor in ""Murder on the Orient Express"" would not even be appropriate in ""Curtain"", Christie's finale to the great detective. Poirot was a fighter and a thinker from the beginning to the end. This sad, sad interpretation was devoid of almost all of Poirot's endearing characteristics. I give Suchet credit for a good performance, but not that of Hercule Poirot, for certainly it was not he, the great detective. He dismissed flattery. He almost dismissed a challenge. He never smiled. He lost affability. In short, this was another person, another detective, an unworthy production; an unworthy performance. Buy the Albert Finney version. It, at least, has a spirited Hercule Poirot."
+7135,2,"For Heaven's sake, buy this before London pulls the plug!","As the London recordings disappear, no doubt to reappear someday at a super-premium price, you owe it to yourself to buy this. See for yourself what all the fuss over Tebaldi is about- like Callas, she gives class to trashy operas. Really- who else would you want to hear singing La Wally?"
+7136,1,Distortion in Aspect except 4::3,"You'll see a circle as a circle only on Aspect 4:3. The other aspect ""zoom"" make the circle looks like an egg. No adjustment in vertical or Horizontal. The manual stated the ""ZOOM"" will enlarge the 4:3 without distortion. But it is not, it enlarged more in Horizontal than Vertical. Tech Support said that it is pre-set in manufacture, they can't correct it. I need the ZOOM aspect to watch the wide screen movie.I compare it with Westinghouse, the Westinghouse is better, more options, easier use on Remote.Some credits I have to give to both TV is that No Dead Pixel."
+7137,1,Didn't work,"I used this product for 2 months. The only difference I saw in my breast was that they were more round. They didn't increase in size.Other things I did notice:-Made me more sleepy-Calmed me down when I felt anxious-Killed my sex drive-Didn't mess up my menstrual cycleI stayed away from caffeine, chocolate, fats, teas, exercised less. I did everything the way I was suppose to. Yet, no growth.I have had more success with the Noogleberry Breast Pump. I've been using it for a year and went from a small A to a big B."
+7138,1,I should have read the reviews,"This book is full errors. Examples: Don't use aspirin and warfarin together, all copies of the DEA222 are sent to the DEA after being filed out by a pharmacist. I stopped taking the practice tests after 90 questions because I am afraid this may actually worsen my score due to all the wrong information. I don't think this book was written by a pharmacist."
+7139,2,Centralia's 6th grade Review,This is a great book for all kids to read. It is a story of friendship and imagination. We liked this book because it kept our class' attention and we didn't want to stop reading it until the end. We recommend that you read this book if you want to be entertained and amazed. It is better then the movie because you get to make up your own idea of what Terabithia looks like. In the movie you only get to see what the movie makers imagination is.
+7140,1,Disappointed,"The pictures don't seem to be as good as they should be. The cameria uses batteries quickly, and the flash is inadaquate. The software is simple, the uploading of pictures is efficient, but if it doesn't work, there aren't many diagnostics. But for [the cost] what do you expect? I think just a little bit more."
+7141,1,Youngstown Gloves,They do not keep my hands warm at all at temps under 32 degrees. Very unhappy with this product. Plus they run a little small on the size.
+7142,1,GO VIDEO - WORST COMPANY I'VE EVER DEALT WITH,"I bought a unit from GO Video and experienced horrors with their customer service as mentioned in other reviews.My unit came without any of the accessories and after 6 weeks of talking to more than a half dozen people (with more runaround than you can even begin to imagine) at go video, I still have a unit that will not work.avoid this manufacturer!!"
+7143,1,Irritating,"At 368 pages, this book is 368 pages too long. I see it is number 255,203 on Amazon Best Sellers and that just about sums it up.I read this book about 15 years ago and I am still amazed that I finished it. I remember thinking, it can't be this bad when so many people like it and say it is funny. Well, it was that bad and I don't know what they were thinking.It certainly isn't funny. Nasty, stupid, boring are the words I would use.On a scale of 1 to Catcher in the Rye overrated, I would give this a Catcher in the Rye."

+7145,1,Amos and Andy dialog,"This film is a depiction of black people in the souththat isn't much like what they were like historically, but is like what white culture stereotyped them.The music and dance is the best of this movie.The plot like the dialog is bad: the country cotton picker is shucked like corn by the city slicker woman and her friends in the fast crowd."
+7146,2,Sweet Sweet music,"I am at a loss to understand why this is not one of the foremost easy listening cd's by a male performer of all time. It is well sung and has great songs and instrumentation. It reminds one of McCartney or Norah Jones....each time you listen you hear something new, and it is enjoyable over time. It is great either as background or to focus upon."
+7147,1,Sorry Rick...,"This game sucks. Also, if you haven't seen the movie ""Rise of the Machines"", it sucks, too. Well...maybe not to Rick from Indiana who, incidentally, doesn't get out too much."
+7148,2,5 stars to the Westing Game,"The book the Westing Game was one of the best books I have ever read.This book was about 16 people who find out that they are the heirs of a man named Sam Westing. The heirs are trying to figure out who murdered Sam Westing. when they come to the Westing house for the reading of the will, they find out that the murder is one of them, so they can't trust anyone. I really liked this book, and I would recommend it to anyone who likes mystery or suspense books."
+7149,1,Difficult to read for beginners,I can not give a completer review as I am still reading this book. I will say the majority of my friends reading this book at the same time as I am are having a difficult time following and understanding the principles discussed. I think it is just not as basic as it could have started to give the beginner a better foundation. Also a glossary of terms would have been a tremendous help.
+7150,2,A very good choice.,I ordered this for my 4 year old grandson.This movie is very clean and also helps small children learn how to get along socially.My grandson will watch it over and over.
+7151,2,works great,"This product works great.Did not get any side effects, so it works fine.I can't compare this product with another one, because I just started using it.And this brand is my first one.So, so far so good."
+7152,1,A little more information please,"I have read many of the reviews, and I assume this product works well. But my main gripe here is with amazon and the manufacturer. This product is an amplified antenna, and most amplified antennas require an external power source. However, this product was not advertised as needing an ac adapter, and was even advertised as receiving its power for their amplification through the coaxial cable. While most people who buy this product will not care whether or not they have to plug it in, I bought this antenna specifically because it was the highest rated non-powered antenna. However, this antenna REQUIRES TO BE PLUGGED IN TO WORK PROPERLY. In addition, they boast that this antenna has a ""small footprint."" This is the third antenna I have purchased, and it was by far the biggest. It is definitely more interesting looking than most. But being aesthetically pleasing does not somehow make it smaller."
+7153,1,VERY DISAPPOINTED!,"I ordered this book of Soil Mechanics from Terzaghi. I received this book, damaged, the book corner was torn. I had to send it back.Protection of the book was clearly insufficient. This demonstrated a non-professionalism in sending relatively expensive technical book. I was refunded, because this book was unavailable some days after its order.Disappointed!Mr. Gildas POTINChief Engineer"
+7154,1,Wrong picture,"Item arrived today and it looks very dark Brown - almost Black. There is a huge difference between Tan, Dark Tan, and Dark Brown/Black.I'm attempting to get back into my old habits of using Franklin Covey planner.The item is genuine Franklin Covey but I expected my item to look like the picture and not almost black.1 star for poor representation of the product!!!"
+7155,2,Purrrrrrr,"An excellent book!! This is one of the best of the Mrs. Murphy series. As always, Tucker, Mrs. Murphy and Pewter are a riot - and in this book, we see much more of Simon the Opposum, who is another lovable character. This book has some rather grisly humor (I won't give away more) that really perked it up - as well as interesting interactions between the various humans. In these earlier books, Miranda is really a character, and she is a lot of fun that way (Brown tones her down a little too much in the later books). I would highly recommend this book - especially to pet lovers everywhere."
+7156,2,Great for the price,"This camera takes really good pictures in low light conditions. The ASR also works quite well, and I have taken pictures under 2x-3x zoom that turn out quite well."
+7157,1,Wrong Shoes Sent,I ordered 3 pairs of New Balance M 878 shoes and got the wrong size and a different model. If the correct shoe wasn't available I would have preferred being told that rather than getting a wrong order.
+7158,2,the real thing,"i was a bill withers fan back from the late 70's (ok i'm dating myself) i was introduced to him when 'just the 2 of us' came out. i loved his voice so much i combed the resale shops and found the original recording of 'lean on me' in vinyl. 'grandma's hands' was one of my favorite recordings. bill withers is one of those singers who sounds as good a cappella as he does w/ grover washington jr. (the only person i think who can come close is josh white jr. - check out his album 'i can sing a rainbow') i always loved the smooth whiskey sound of his voice evident in 'lean on me', 'just the two of us', 'grandma's hands' and 'lovely day' i haven't seen the GAP commercial and really don't care to. i just will crank up my stereo and get the real thing"
+7159,2,"Strong, classic, and Angus","The lyrics are solid AC/DC. Nothing's changed for a quarter century. The attitude's still the same. Good bluesy sound, with all the positives from their 90's albums. For some reason, this one has more bite than Razor's Edge or Blow Up Your Video. AC/DC fans will enjoy this album and know that the World's Greatest Rock 'n Roll Band is still living and rockin'."
+7160,1,For the jazz elite only.,My jazz guide gives these recordings their highest rating. I give them a butterball turkey. There are two full CDs packed with the sound of fingernails screeching across a chalkboard. This is Don Imus in music.
+7161,2,Really happy...,"With twin babies and a toddler in our house, we were looking for a means to keep an eye on everyone throughout the day. We actually don't use this to monitor the babies' sleep, but to watch our toddler playing. We bought the package with two cameras. We currently have one camera set up in the playroom and the other in our family room. The tv monitor is in our home office. Although one channel doesn't work at all for us, the other two channels work nearly perfectly with little interferance. The only issue is when we use the office phone, which is 900 mhz and is right next to the monitor. Other than that, we have no problems. The only reason I didn't give this 5 stars is I wish the camera had a wider view. Still, I can see enough of the rooms to get an idea of what's going on and I can hear what I can't see. I feel much better now knowing that everyone is safe while I'm in the office working."
+7162,2,It Does What It Does,"This product does exactly what it claims to. It takes care of body hair where you don't want it, and it does so without irritation, rashes or ingrown hairs. I generally use this only on the back of the neck (cleanups between haircuts) and chest, and it's much better than a regualr razor: faster, more effective, safer. Definitely recommended!It gets four out of five because it's a little noisy and the battery (while long lasting) can only be charged when fully drained. However - I have dropped this numerous times in the shower, some of which cause the entire foil and cutting surfaces to become detached from the body of the groomer. I simply re-inserted them back, and it still worked perfectly. Very surprised at the resiliance of this product, and happy, too."
+7163,1,"OH, COME ON!","From what I can remember about this failure of a television series was that it could never settle-down and decide if it was going to be serious or funny.The fact is...it was supposed to be serious, but turned-out so badly that they decided to laugh along with the audience and make in tongue-in-cheek.The ending has the two leads turning into bunnies...right?Or did I dream that?I've tried to ""bury"" this in my memory cells.Nice ""Box Art"", though.Where's ""DARK SKIES'"" box set?We get this crap and no ""DARK SKIES""?"
+7164,1,What About Cartoons?,"Asma is cute and that is what sells the book. It's simple as all that.Dress up a cute Pakistani girl to show the world that a girl can go out into the big bad world of the decadent West and succeed and still remain a good Muslim.Well whta I would like to know is what does Asma feel about cartoons showing Prophet Mohammad whering a bomb in his turban? What about a cartoon where the Prophet beseeches madmen who blow themselves and others up not to do it ""Because there are no more virgins in Heaven?""How does Asma feel that so many of her fellow believers are going insane all over the world because of the cartoons and are burning and looting?"
+7165,1,Allerpet Let Me Down,"It was a pain trying to put Allerpet C on my cats. They hated me every time and promptly licked all of it off. I could see no difference whatsoever in my allergies even after treating the cats twice a week for a month and cleaning my entire house after each treatment, right down to washing the walls, floors, upholstery and rugs. NADA. I wouldn't waste my money on this stuff. Instead I would recommend going to the doctor and getting some good Allergy medication! That's what I did and I kept my kitties."
+7166,1,Don't buy this,"It started not brewing a few months after. When I called Delonghi, they asked me to ship it somewhere in Jamaica, NY. Very bad service."
+7167,2,AWESOME for the essay test,"I used another study guide and failed the essay test. After looking over this study guide, I knew exactly what the scorers were looking for and in what format, and passed the second time."
+7168,2,Wrath of the Titans,I thought I had already reviewed this product. I love the movie.I hate when the site updates there sites and can't keep the ratings and notes on the items.
+7169,1,Picture is deceiving,The actual item was not as pictured exactly. There was hardly any space between the last bump and the base.
+7170,2,Good Solid Read,"Picked this up when I stumbled across the customer reviews on Amazon; I liked and enjoyed a lot, did not get the ""can't put it down"" feeling the other reviewers did; But great writing and great characters; understanding the love between two men and understanding what this disease can do directly and indirectly to so many individuals; Like the story line that built on the love for Rich, love of his career and how health took it all."

+7173,2,Delightful!,"I enjoyed this light reading....very entertaining, uplifting around the Holiday Season! I would recommend it for anyone who has previously enjoyed Debbie Macomber's novels and those who have yet discovered her. I have now read two more of her ""angel"" books and have giggled about the adventures of Shirley, Goodness and Mercy! Just what we all need in this economy....escapism!"
+7174,2,A great christian singer,This is Michael's best album of all. All the songs are perfect. This one is recommended for any and every christian music lover.
+7175,2,An excellent read,"The narrative is amazing in this book. I especially love Peekay as a small boy. Courtenay describes such big ideas in terms that really sound like refelections of a child. They are hilarious and heartbreaking at the same time, and make you love this small boy who becomes an admirable young man. I can't stop thinking about this book."
+7176,2,A fantastic vacuum for the price!,I bought this vacuum four months ago and it works great! Easy to use and really seems very powerful. Picks up things from your carpet that you didn't even see. The push-button release for the dirt container makes it very simple to empty. This is an excellent vacuum for the price. I use about a mid-range height setting for my carpets and it works great.
+7177,1,DVD Broke Straight out of the Case,"Couldn't enjoy the movie, the DVD was split in two as soon as we opened it. What a disappointment for myself for spending the cash and for my kid who never had a chance to watch the movie."
+7178,2,"Familar Songs, Different Arrangements and Mature Vocal Quality","Agree with all reviewers' comments ...except...Anyone who knows Johnny's voice since Ed Sullivan days...he has kept his octaves but expanded his tonal quality. The current album has different arrangements...elicits different emotions in listeners.Tracks on this CD are same titles from previous...but have qualities described above.It's interesting that people will spend $10+ per ticket to go to a movie theatre with the loud audio, rude people using their cell phones, cost of popcorn, etc.........why would there be a complaint about spending the $$$ for this CD?Johnny Mathis has contributed to the USA culture. I hope the current and future generations develop appreciation for artists regardless of generation."
+7179,1,Terrible,"I don't know what body type this hoodie is modeled for, but it sure isn't the average person. I bought this, tried it on, and it clearly didn't fit properly, so I had friends of various sizes try it on as well.This sweater fit no one.It's incredibly huge in the chest area and the arms, is extremely long, and gets narrower toward the bottom.Unless you're literally shaped like a slice of pizza, this hoodie will not fit."
+7180,1,Worked for 1 day,"The first day it worked wonderfully, then the second day, the camera started saying memory card not initialized, put it in the card reader and it does not recognize it anymore, wouldn't buy another Olympus xd card in my life."
+7181,2,Buddy's Bsd,"Buddy- my black lab- loves the bed. So does Packy- one of our cats. I think Buddy would give the bed ""5 stars"" which, I must admit, may be influenced by the fact that this is Buddy's first, and only, bed."
+7182,2,Love abounds,This is an excellent and comprehensive anthology that features poets normally excluded from compilations of love poetry.

+7184,1,Blue Smoke,"I am a huge Nora Roberts fan, however, this book was graphicly violent and sadistic. This is not what I have come to expect from her and I was very disappointed. When I what a book like this I read Patricia Cornwell."
+7185,1,Scratched,"Mine too was scratched out of the box. I wouldn't really care except it's scratched right where the screen is and is fairly large. I bought it simply to put in a Bose Sounddock because I didn't like the fact that the screen was exposed. It looks really sharp there (minus the scratch)Has anyone got a non-scratched one? (ie, is it even worth trying to replace it.)"
+7186,1,Secret Society,"Ok, please tell me why almost EVERYONE would think that this is the BEST book that they have read?!?!?!?!? First of all, it was too much Brand name dropping and then how, just how could these men live like this??? Now this could be a true life of some men out there, but I could not do it. Some of the stuff that was in the book just was not realistic! I'm soooo glad that I read Diary of a Mistress FIRST! B/c if I had read this book first I would have passed on the other two novels that she has wrote...Now Diary of a Mistress was waaaaaaaaaaaay better than this book! I'm so sorry Miasha, please do not write another book like this!"
+7187,2,Ultimate fan of Ultimate Gospel!,"I absolutely could not be more pleased with this CD. The remarkable flair that is totally unique to Elvis is definitely a part of this type of music he loved to perform. Even if you are not a Gospel fan, you simply can not help tapping your foot, or being moved in some way while listening to this CD. None equal."
+7188,1,Ugggg...,"I'm all for reading soul-searching materials, but this book was like pulling teeth - I felt it was translated (and poorly at that) so the sentence structure was long and difficult to follow; NOT that word choice was difficult or that it was above reading comprehension, far from it...some of the sentences just didn't make sense and I often lost their entire meaning."
+7189,2,Great Educational Toy.,"My son received this for his 5th b-day. He loves it. It has many levels. He started out with the very easy level, now he's at the hard level. It will make you think. I like it myself as an adult. Its good exercise for any age brain. I am buying this for a nephew's b-day coming up. Its a toy that you can play anytime and over and over again. Good Toy."
+7190,2,A Very Good Game.,"This is a very good game (but not as good as FF9). I think it is better than FF7 (I just can't get into it as mutch). The characters are cool, sory is cool, and the GFs are AWSOME! (Cactuar is my favorite.) I will give my ratings from 1.0-10.0. Graphics-9.5 Controll-10.0 Sound-9.5 Replay-9.0 TOTAL SCORE-9.5"
+7191,2,cool,"I got this as a gift for my brother-in-laws man cave. I think it looks pretty cool, but the real test is whether or not he likes it enough to hang it up on the wall."
+7192,2,very good,"I had it for over a year, then I sold it with the camera, I got it for half the price the sony card was.fast, reliable, dependable."
+7193,1,do not buy,Very few of the dvds would play on my player. Little real science fiction. Title should be (Early science shows for Children).
+7194,1,BEWARE,The GLX_CELL_15_W_SALT TURBO is warranted for only 1 year. Mine lasted only 18 months and has to be replaced. DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT!! Spend the extra $100 and get the one with a three year warranty.
+7195,2,Sterling Silver Charm Bracelet with Chime Balls,"Top quality SS bracelet; beautiful bracelet; the chime bells have a very nice, pleasant sound; not heavy, well constructed; good to wear on any occasion."
+7196,2,Gerber Butterfly Knife,My Husband really liked this knife. He used to have a different Gerber and wore it out. He likes this one better!
+7197,2,"Good length, cuts bread effortlessly","I'm a brand loyal like you wouldn't believe and for the longest time, I couldn't decide if I preferred Henckels or Wusthof knives more. This last addition to my knife set has finally tipped my preference in favour towards Wusthof knives (sorry Henckels!) My previous serrated knife was a 5"" utility knife which was part of the Zwilling J.A. Henckels Twin Pro S 7-Piece Knife Set, and it never felt that comfortable and was too short. With this 8"" knife, cutting feels really effortless and I had no problem cutting larger loaves. Both crusty and soft breads cut cleanly and didn't squish the bread. It didn't squish tomatoes either. I like that the handle feels substantial, and it was comfortable to hold.I chose this knife over the 9"" knife version since the 9"" costs quite a bit more, and I can't see how an inch can added that much difference in value."
+7198,2,Politically Stunning,"Chris tells the world of politics like no other. His fairness to the players only compounds his insight into how the game works. This book is a must have for anyone with any intention on getting into the game of politics, or is even half-way curious on how the machine works."
+7199,2,An outstanding complex plot that will leave you wanting more,"An outstanding complex plot, which leaves you guessing until the last page. This is part of an outstanding trilogy. The characters, Claire and Tony are fully developed, well rounded flawed characters. I love them. If you love a good crime, mystery, thriller, romance. Then series is for you. There is no simple plot here. This book played out like a movie in my head. And I applaud Ms. Miller on this great read."
+7200,2,My Boys are in HEAVEN!!!,I have two Male Boxers and a Female Shepard mix... All three of them Love these beds! The boys can fit in one bed comfortably. The Shepard doesn't like to share her oversized sleeping area! I have washed them in my oversized washing machine and they come out beautiful! I would HIGHLY recommend these beds...
+7201,2,New Michael Cavanaugh fan!!,"I purchased this CD as a Billy Joel fan...it is a must have for your collection. Michael Cavanaugh, definately has a VERY promising future! His voice is wonderful, and his piano talent rivals that of Mr. Joel himself! This is my new favorite!!"
+7202,2,"An excellent, useful book","While at first I thought O'Reilly's new ""developer's notebook"" series seemed a bit hokey, this book is extremely useful. It's concise and to the point, but full of good examples and information. A plus of the small size is that it's more to-the-point and cheaper than a typical O'Reilly book (which very often seem to ramble on and on about marginally useful information, seemingly in order to justify their $45+ price tags)."
+7203,2,Who are you people?,"It's been some time since I read this book, but I browsed these reviews when I recognized the title. Goldman writing is excellent, and yes, its a good story, but you can get the story from the movie in under two hours. The book is quite complicated with an excellent, almost cynical theme. It deals with an adult's reflections on the fantasies of his childhood from the perspective of the grownup world. Life isn't fair, and everyone lives happily ever after, until. . . . Still and all, the narrator feels obligated to tell the ""good parts"" of this fictional history, showing the continuing allure that our youthful fantasies still hold, and our wish that life could be a fairy taleJust for the record, of course Morgenstern, Guilder and Florin aren't real. Where did you learn history and geography?"
+7204,1,Do not buy this edition,"This edition appears to be from an OCRed text that was not proof-read. Odd spacings, strange characters, missing words. The binding and paper is cheap.Stay away! (It's not even worth one star.)"
+7205,1,D'oh!,"Remember all those great songs on Discovery? One More Time? Digital Love? Harder Better Faster Stronger? Something About Us? And remember all those boring, repetitive songs in between? (me neither). Daft Punk decided to do without good songs and focus on boring, repetive ones and we're left with a crap album! Hurray!"
+7206,2,"""I think I may be half black.""","This perhaps has to be my fav. Jerry Spinelli book.It's about this boy Jeffrey Lionel Magee(Maniac) And one day his parents die in a trolley crash, so he has to live with his Aunt&Uncle.; But He runs away 'cause they hate each other.So then he ends up in this town that is seperated by Blacks and Whites.And so,like He's a legend divided into Truth and Myth, Anyways he meets Amanda Beale and Mars bar,Grayson,The Cobras and so many other people and problems of him having a home and his race.Theres Three parts to this 184 paged novel and it's really good.I recommend it!p.s. I wish this comment wasn't so quick,sorry!"
+7207,1,disappointing,"Sigh. I loved Secret Life of Bees and was really looking forward to this book but it falls flat, in my humble opinion. I am not done with it yet (am on page 205--can anyone tell me it gets better?) but the writing and characters, and the setting and plot do not measure up with the drama of Secret Life. So far in the book, the main protagonists, Jessie and Whit, are so shallow and cliche, their arguments for breaking their respective vows are not convincing. Jessie separates from her husband in a conversation that took about two paragraphs and he went running back to the mainland....that just seemed weird to me. There are some ""sort of"" interesting characters, Kat and Hepzibah for example, but they are not enough to save the book. I am going to soldier on to see how it ends, but it is painful. The author had a real problem here in that Secret Life was a tough act to follow. Ms. Kidd should stick with chronological adolescents, not middle aged people acting like adolescents."
+7208,2,Unique Approach to Bargello,"I will not critique this book. I do not yet know if the directions can be followed or the advice given is useful. I have only just received my copy of this interesting book. I will tell you one thing, it is unique. The designs, the idea and the approach are original. I also can't fault her color use.I am writing a lot of these reviews. As a buyer of these out-of-print books, I always wish there was more information about them out there. So, here I am. I am currently (ok, for almost a year now) working on a needlepoint project that has a saying *THE CHEESE STANDS ALONE*"
+7209,2,Nice headphones,"I love the Koss headphones. Nice sound, good bass and comfortable to wear. The first time you wear is gonna be un comfortable but once you bend the ear guards to the right angle of your ear, you wont regret buying it."
+7210,1,Not worth the money,The quality of this product was low; cheesy materials that were not nearly as nice as they looked online.
+7211,1,lots of follow the bouncing cloud to inane lyrics,"this is my 22 month-old son's first Thomas video; from the cast list, i thought it would have Ringo singing, but it doesn't, instead english kids sing inane lyrics. the stories are cute, though each ends with slow panning of all the trains and their name labels. it's o.k., but i'll try to get an Alec Baldwin one, hear he's better. My son liked the trains, but wasn't enchanted by the tunes in the least."
+7212,1,Disappointed.,I really tried to give this movie a chance because I have watched all the other Batman movies but I just couldn't get into this one. I don't know if it was the darkness of the plot or the darkness of the movie itself (pitch black throughout the whole movie) but I got bored and finally turned it off after about an hour and a half.
+7213,2,"Sarah, a troubled young girl, yet so determined","This book is about a girl named Sarah Bishop(obviously). This story takes place in the time of the Revolutionary War. Her Father is a tory, someone loyal to the king, who gets killed because of it. His death was decided to be caused by a tar and feathering. On the other hand her brother Chad decides to be a patriot. He however gets put on a prison ship and eventually dies. The night Sarahs father dies her house burns down. The British army blames her for the burnt down house and wants her to be punished for it. She then runs away to a cave deep in the woods. There she leads a new life. This book was very good. It changed my thoughts and feelings and got me thinking about it all the time, and how lucky i am to have the stuff i have especially my family! READ IT"
+7214,1,didn't work,I mistakenly purchased the wrong Epson ink cartridges but when I discovered the mistake it was past the return date for the product. The vendor refused to swap this product for the correct product.
+7215,2,GREAT FUN LEARNING TOOL ~ MUST HAVE,"We had the pleasure of meeting Bob McLeod this weekend and purchased his new book, SUPERHERO ABC. My son, who is not quite 2 1/2, immediately responded to the characters!When we arrived back to our home he quickly chimed in with,""Mommy, hero book ... PLEASE"".Mr. Mcleod was gracious enough to sign this one for my son so we may have to buy another book for my Alexander to carry around. Again, let me remind you HE'S 2!!!I also think that the style is a great throw back to the classic greatness of the comic books of the golden age. Comics that were made for KIDS.Remember Moms and Dads,kids who read comic books ...READ.And I can tell you from experience that this comic book-style childrens book is an engaging way to get your young one excited about reading:o)A++ for this book!"
+7216,2,One Of Their Best,"This little punk album is actually one of NOFX's best albums but there are a bunch just as good. The cool thing about this cd is that it doesnt seem like they were trying to put together a great album considering it took less than 3 days to put it together and record and most of the songs are only around 2 minutes long. This album literally flies by making you wish that there were more tracks... and that is definately a good thing. There is almost no filler like on some of their albums and my favorite songs are 180 Degrees, Quart In Session, Dad's Bad News, All Outta Angst, I'm Telling Tim, All His Suits Are Torn, The Desperation's Gone, It's My Job To... & the short but sweet Murder The Government. NOFX lays down some of their catchiest songs ever here for instance 180 Degrees is my favorite song by them to date so if you are a slight fan of the band do not hesitate to pick this up."
+7217,2,I love it!,"Very beautifull!! Two collors, because when we put white light on this flashlight, it be blue!!I love it!!"
+7218,2,Clears up misconceptions,"This book gives a full picture of a geisha's life from the beginning of a career until the end and shows the ups and downs. Mineko Iwasaki tells an interesting story of an exotic life, one that is commonly misconstrued in the west. Sometimes its difficult to keep track of all the Japanese names, because they all sound and look the same to me! Otherwise, a nice book! Enjoy."
+7219,2,satisfying,"this is the second brunetti mystery i've read. i really enjoyed the characters, the memories of venice it evokes, and the solid ""europeanness"" of the plot. i highly recommend this book as a fun read."
+7220,2,Great Product!,Unbeatable for the price! Worked fine right out of the box. Easy to use and easy to understand instructions. I'm glad I bought it.
+7221,1,Retro Theory Supports Male Superiority,"A hundred years ago and more, women were chattel and forced to live with philandering and/or abusive husbands who changed mistresses at will and produced children out of wedlock at every opportunity. All to stay under the same roof with their children.Farrell's ""theory"" supports the concept that fathers are, by virtue of being men, the superior parent. Mothers can be exiled from the family home with little or no support although they often give up jobs and careers to be the ""at home"" caregiver. Dad gets tired of Mom and sends her packing?No doubt, fathers should be involved with their children. As Farrell points out both parents have much to give to the upbringing of a child.However, this book isn't progress but Neanderthal thinking. It is enough to make any woman a feminist just to protect her rights as a parent. No wonder most of the people who wrote rave reviews were men!"
+7222,2,"8 in 1 Excel Time Release Senior Dog Multi-Vitamins Tabs, 100 Count...",They say when they make dog food they put everything in it that the dog would need but who knows.The vitamin could not hurt I guess and it seems like my pets move and look a little better and I've been giving it to them for years.
+7223,1,Well written trash,"I enjoyed listening to Delillo's sentences. His skill with structure is almost poetic in that these sentences have flow and rhythm that a poet would love.Having said that, I really didn't like this book. It starts out confused, and ends up confused. Delillo could have written this in a single chapter, and he wouldn't have lost anything. The fear of death, hiding from reality in the white noise, even the sexual connotations of our world, all could have been put into one short story, and it would have been interesting, besides.The sentences have balance, flow, and beauty. The novel does not."
+7224,2,GREAT Slippers,I have worn Isotoner slippers for 25+ years and love them. So comfy for your feet. They machine wash and keep the fit. Just got the leopard print for a change and I hope they come out with more prints.Love them.Joyce
+7225,2,a breathtaking novel,Wow. This is the devastating portrayal of the break-up of a marriage and the collapse of a family. I read this on a flight from NY to LA and was near tears for part of the trip. The author has uncanny insight into human nature and an astonishing ability to translate emotions into words.
+7226,1,Great if you can read Russian,"I'm trying to learn Russian on my own. For some CRAZY reason every book/study aid I've bought that has vocabulary comes without a pronunciation key. These cards are no exception.The answers might as well have been written in hieroglyphics. Yes, I did study the alphabet and sounds each letter makes, but we all know sometimes words sound different than how they are spelled. There are stresses on the beginning or ending of the word that you might not pick up on unless you are told. Is a pronunciation key really too much to ask for? Apparently so, because only when I got the product did I realize ""the cards presupposes a working knowledge of Russian characters"".Great for people who have Russian speaker at their fingertips. My only choice is to look up each individual word and write in the pronunciation key myself. I'm so frustrated I could die."
+7227,2,if i could give it 10 stars,"This may not be my favorite movie ever, but if its not then my favorite is no better. This film is beautiful, not only in its comedy but in its truthful tone hidden beneath the slight absurdity. I really can't say anything other than if you like wes anderson films, or anything even loosly associated with it then go now and watch it twice."
+7228,2,"a hater of stupid comedy, but loved this movie!!!!","This movie has absolutely no plot, but its so funny i actually threw up from laughing at one point in the movie. This movie has the funniest 15min ever filmed in it, so you should check it out but dont expect a great plot or great acting, thats not the point!!!!"
+7229,2,Was looking for something like a PS2 controller--found it.,"From a choice of about 15 gamepads I chose this one. It felt similar to the PS2 controller and had some weight to it (even before the batteries were installed). Installation was easy; installed software on a PC with 2000 for an operating system. I really enjoy the freedom of not having to worry about a cord. The inputs were received fine, but for the most part I was only a couple of feet from the receiver. However, at times I had the gamepad in my lap aiming down and even with the reciver above it it it worked fine...felt as if it must be connected via a cord. Good force feed back, too. Nice and solid and does the job for me. Hope you're pleased with it if you decide to buy."
+7230,2,Dust,"Good story and makes you think, keeps you thinking what might happen but also has a feeling of sadness throughout the story."
+7231,1,"OK CD, Not As Bad As People Say.","After reading some of the reviews on the site I had to pick up this CD and see if it is really as bad as people wrote. I picked it up used and listened to it and I agree with many of you that there are aome REALLY poor song choices like ""Unchained Melody"" and a couple others. BUT there are some decent songs on there like ""I saw Your Face"" and others that really get lost by some of the poorer songs. This is an R&B album with the exception of about 3 songs so you should know that in advance if you were expecting a totally ""Pop"" album. It isn't, but there really really are about 5 five good songs if you can filter past the bad ones. If the other songs were as good I would have rated it much better."
+7232,1,"SLIDING SWITCH IS PLASTIC JUNK, at least on the fan side",I have to agree with Mr. Davis on this one. I have this switch in my kitchen to operate the fan. The sliding switch that operates the 4 speed fan broke off but NOT at the actual knob where it could be glued back on but on the stem making it IMPOSSIBLE to put the tiny knob back on. They cannot engineer and build it out of something solid but rather screw the consumer into buying frail plastic junk that does not hold up.
+7233,1,Knees Hit Handlebars,"Easy to put together, works well.The bike is too small for my 6'3"" frame, my knees hit the handlebars even though I have set the seat all the way back and I am riding with the seat too low in an attempt not to have the problem.There should definitely be a height range somewhere in addition to the weight max in the literature."
+7234,2,It's different but I enjoyed it,"It's not your typical animated feature. It's adult themed (more than a little gore, killing, etc) Having read Extremis, it's very true to the original material. It's not truly 'animated', but more of a 'moving comic'. It's difficult to compare this to recent DC and Marvel releases - mainly because of the stylistic differences. All in all, I enjoyed it."
+7235,1,Disappointment,I recieved the product with the packaging all intact; however when I opened the DVD the disks was cracked . I was so looking forward to this movie so you can imagine the disappointment when I found the disk cracked. I was going to call someone about a replacement but could not find a phone number anywhere within your website.Arn: The Knight Templar
+7236,1,"Mr John, what happened?! You used to be interesting.","When this novel was first published last summer, I discovered it when I walked into my local .... A new John Irving novel! Oh boy! I had been pleasantly surprised by ""A Widow For One Year,"" and loved such Irving classics as ""Garp"" and ""Owen Meany."" ""The Fourth Hand"" should be a nice treat, right? Wrong. I found the characters to be superficial, not at all credible, petty, and... boring.If you like reading books about people who are selfish, have sex, whine, have sex, love football, have sex.... (you get the picture)then I am sure you will enjoy this book. However, if you are an Irving veteran, I suggest you look elsewhere."
+7237,1,No publishing date or number of pages given,"Who would be stupid enough to buy a book that only informs this is the ""4th addition"" - especially at this price?"
+7238,2,Beautiful,This is a collection of beautifully written songs that are beautifully sung and masterfully produced. I purchased their first CD a year ago (independently released) and I still love it a year later. These songs come from a deep place and are amazing as art and as worship.
+7239,1,2 stars for bad marketing,"I have used the C230x and do not want to pay $70 for an updated map. So I am thinking of getting a new one, model C520, but I just find out from calling MIO that I will have to pay for an updated map for this model any way. To me, this is bad.Any way, I drop the idea of buying new MIO. I hope this helps anyone thinking of buying new MIO C230x or C520 because you will have to buy updated map; they should offer updated map free of charge to new customers."
+7240,1,FRYER JUNK,"I USED THE FRYER 3 TIMES. I CALLED: WAS TOLD TO PUSH THE RESET BUTTON. IT DID NOT WORK. CALLED BACK TRYING TO GET MY MONEY BACKTALKED TO SOMEONE WHO COULD NOT SPEAK ENGLISH. I SENT IT BACKINSURED, 1ST CLASS FOR $18.05 WITH A $14.95 CHECK FOR RETURN POSTAGE. CALLED HSN TOLD THEM, THEY SENT ME A SERVICE CONTRACTI BOUGHT. (DIDN'T REMEMBER) SAYING POSTAGE WAS PAID BOTH WAYSAND REPAIRS. NOW I'M TRYING TO GET MY $33.00 BACK.I WILL NEVER BUY EURO-PRO JUNK AGAIN. JHH"
+7241,2,Very good book that was hard to put down,The only reason that this book didn't receive the full 5 stars from me is due to the plot. If the plot was a little deeper it would have been a better read. The author could have fleshed out the relationships a little better so that the reader cared more about the side characters.The concepts put forth such as the Judges and the training ground were good. The description of the world and how it works was rich with detail. This was the aspect of the book I enjoyed most.This is definitely on my recommended reading list.
+7242,1,Broke during installation,"Package arrived with wrapping that looked like it was bought and returned from a hardware/home diy store and then sat in the warehouse for a few decades. Product looked okay, though. The screw holes sheared during installation, and I returned the product and received a full refund."
+7243,1,"david better than baywatch, but...","In this movie, david Charvet starrs in a role that appears to be better for him as the role he tried on in Baywatch. His (needed) acting lessons do show of, but he still needs some coaching. Tia Carrere is a bad singer and an even worse actress. Story not too bad. Directing could have been better"
+7244,1,the machine is defective,"the machine is defective, as it gets hot the top coffee container pops open and the coffee spills all over the counter.I will never purchase another product like this on line"
+7245,1,BUYER BEWARE!!!,"Seller pulled a bait & switch, sent me a different, cheaper version of the pictured product. Never could get through when I called, slooow response time on e-mail. All in all my worst Amazon transaction in 5 years!!!!"
+7246,2,Great Movie,Tom Cruse and cast do a wonderful job in this movie. When family movie night comes around this is one that will always get pulled.
+7247,1,"Very, very bad. Skip it and be happier for it.","What was the book supposed to be about? I was expecting an off-world war adventure (the book delivered on that premise in spades. Good.) and I expected an adventure (never realized or possible in this context). I found the prose confusing, misleading and hard to follow. I didn't think the author was communicating to me at all, and in the end felt totally frustrated with the entire piece. I know this guy is supposed to be famous and published an awful lot of books, but I think he's published a lot of awful books if this is his regular prose. There's so much good sci-fi around these days that I can't warn strongly enough: read them and give this book a miss. Its really that bad. You've been warned. Read something by Simon R. Green instead."
+7248,2,Stylish and practical nursing top,"love the front flap design of the Japanese Weekend D&A tops. Easy access and offers a lot of coverage. I own several of these styles. I do not need to use additional coverups when nursing in public, in fact. This particular top is a favorite as it is quite versatile. I wear it to work with black pants, add a jacket for meetings and pair it with jeans or yoga pants on the weekends. Plus, it is machine washable and does not need ironing. What else can a new mother ask for?"
+7249,2,In order to pass,"I passed the exam but could not have without this book. It covered virtually everything on the exam and the chapter questions were on target. It doesn't explain some things clearly, because it assumes you already know the concept; but it does offer a wealth of information on the subject. For the money, and to be sure you pass, BUY THIS BOOK!!!!!!! This book along with Sun Certified System Administrator for Solaris 8 Study Guide (Exam 310-011 & 310-012) -- by Syngress Media Inc.is a definite PASS on the first try!!"
+7250,2,"great machine, dreadful manual","My husband and I love the machine and use it regularly. The info displayed helps keep us motivated, the tension is easy to control, and we get a very effective workout.The manual is probably the worst one I have seen written by a native speaker of English. It is unclear and inaccurate. For example, it tells you to press ENTER, and there is no enter key. The instructions are almost useless. They need a detailed list of which buttons to press and in what order for each program. Sometimes I find what I want by accident, but mostly I stick with the basic program.The instructions for assembling it also were hard to follow. The diagrams were small and difficult to decipher. It would have been helpful to have labelled each piece (some were labelled, but not all)."
+7251,1,Not sure about the theology,I am not sure about his theology. He says that he belives some type of beings other than humans existed on this plant. He also says that the Bible does not discuss this. The Bible only discusses the human race. So why talk it about it at all? Whether another race existed or not shouldn't be the topic. The book did not have the answers I was looking for and was not a help to me.
+7252,2,Well made and roomy!,"This bag is durable and holds all my huge books as well as my laptop. It has two pockets on the sides that button which are great for your cell phone, keys, water bottle ect. I would definitely recommend it!"
+7253,1,This Is a SAD a** movie,UGH! this movie is sooooo low budgetd til it makes me cry such a screwed movie the cover is and back cover is soo not true you dont even see those scences in the movie if u r just bored and want something to watch to make your life seem a little brighter watch it nothing is more depressing I promisexoxox Happy Friday!
+7254,2,Great purchase,It was great to acquisition because of its price. It was a satisfactory experience and I have no complaint at all. I really recommend it.
+7255,2,The best album of 2005,This is album is great and it is one of her best.If you liked the first single Hung Up you will like the whole album.
+7256,2,One of the best 'What-If's' in recent years,"I'm listening to the audio production of ""Y2K"" and despite the highly unusual speaking voice of the reader, he manages to convey the right mixture of menace, mayhem, and Orson Wellesian ""Martian Landing"" hysteria attached to the Y2K problem. People who have attacked this book as unduly alarmist are not really answering the question raised by the author. If even 10% of the catastrophes take place, we are in for a weird New Year's Day in 2000. No one can say with any definite accuracy that the lights will not go out, the phones will fail, and embedded chips will render most of our machines useless. And the critic who accused Kelley of racism in his description of the L.A. riots --- sorry if the truth hurts, folks. I was in L.A. during the riots of '92; Kelley has nailed the tensions accurately. When will anyone in authority tell us that we do not have to worry at all about Y2K? God help those who still have their heads buried in the sand on Dec. 31, 1999."
+7257,1,"Worthless, philosophically unsound","This book is philosophically unsound, both in its arguments and in its source.Just as an example: Ayn Rand has the excellent suggestion that a building's style should be determined by its materials, and both should be determined by its purpose and its location.But if that is so, how can she think of building a temple for the human spirit out of stone (one of the central themes of the book)?What human spirit would be content in stone? What human spirit does not desire to create, to modify, to move? As such, the only proper temple can be living flesh and blood. Yet one of her central themes does seem to be that noble human spirits are best enshrined in steel and stone.She didn't carry her philosophy all the way through.This problem is repeated time and again. Thus, to those who find philosophical soundness to be important, I would advise them to go elsewhere. Even Atlas Shrugged is better on that scale."
+7258,1,Poor quality,"We crushed about 5 cans and the ""Heavy Gauge Steel With Soft Grip Handle"" bent and no longer works. Buyer beware."
+7259,1,I wouldn't buy it again,"I bought this thermometer because of the price (Who can afford spending $100 on a thermometer?) It is great when it works, if it works. I changed the battery twice (not an easy task) to make sure that was not the problem. Sometimes the thing turns on, and sometimes it doesn't. Sometimes I find it ON in the drawer (I don't believe in ghosts...)Sometimes it shuts itself off in the middle of a reading. I don't use it anymore, it is going straight to the Salvation Army."
+7260,1,review,"Since the product description never says what year show this was filmed. It was filmed at the 2002 LA Roadster show. Not all the cars shown are roadsters though. Turn the sound off and put in your own music choice to watch this because the music can get annoying. You are not missing anything important with the hosts commentary and owners talking about their cars.You would think that with all the cars at this show that they wouldn't have to resort to showing so many cars more than once. But they end up showing several cars more than once! What is worse, is that you can see cars in the background that they should have been looking at. Not bad though."
+7261,1,Don't Buy,Could not get it to work with an old HP laser printer and a windows 7 computer. HP does not make a driver for it that you can download.
+7262,2,the best bdaman ever,samuri phoenix is one my best b daman yet he has good aim and speed he is fast good
+7263,2,Great bedtime routine,"This has been our saving grace for the nightime routine. All we have to say to our son is, ""want to go look at the stars"" and we go to his room with little to no fussing. He loves to look at the ceiling and find the moon and point at the stars and he likes that it can change colors. It is a great ""activity"" to get him settled down and ready to go to sleep. He isn't quite two yet, but as long as he has his stars he can go to sleep by himself. On a technical note the stars are the perfect brightness, they cast a soft glow across the room and are definitely distinct, but not so bright that they would keep a little one awake. The batteries seem to be holding up very well too!"
+7264,1,Small Town? Small premise!,"Let me start by saying that I own everything that Lawrence Block has published. That out of the way, let me say this: What did he think was pulling this story together? There is no compelling theme, no protagonist, no cogency as he flits from one character to another without any particular purpose. The sex is a poor substitute for plot mechanisms. Was he writing in the hopes of selling the book for conversion to a soft core movie producer? Was he in a rush to bring out the defining post 9/11 NYC novel? Whatever the motivation, the finished product just does not reflect the level of expertise and craftsmanship that Block has demonstrated in other efforts. What a disappointment."
+7265,2,Blue Skies,"I am a big fan of the Virgin River series, and have enjoyed many of Robyn' s other books. This story of the aviation industry is well researched and I enjoyed the book as a whole, but felt it ended too soon!"
+7266,1,Narcissistic science,"Pert interweaves the story of her life, the story of the progression of her feelings at a lecture she gave, and the story of how she isolated brain receptors. I enjoy human-interest science history when the human-interest provides a context for the science being done. Pert tilts the balance so far toward the human-interest component that the science becomes merely an excuse for exploring her psyche. A good book to get from the library; skim the Pert story to get to the science."
+7267,2,Timely and pretty,"Arrived in a great condition and didn't take too long. The front cover had a small crease on the bottom corner, but seeing as it was used and spent some time in the post, I can't complain. Thanks for adding to my collection!"
+7268,1,Still misrepresented,"As other reviewers have said, no mint bliss in this package. That was the only reason I ordered what I thought the picture accurately depicted. I wish I'd seen the other reviews first. Going back nearly two years on the reviews, I guess no one is reading their feedback."
+7269,1,Oregon Temperature Sensor,The sensor itself went bad after 3 months of use. When it works it is great.
+7270,1,I dont know why this one stands out!?!?,i dont now what john howard is talking about perhaps australia got a dfferent relaese than the states because i took his advice thinking it was a slamin hardcore porn an it wasnt like most of the vivid series stuff its all softcore ... if you want to see jenna get double penetrated this is not the movie to see ...
+7271,2,very good,"to the honest truth this is a good album, rhymes; great, beats; great, production; excellent. the only downfalls of this album is the one or 2 love songs (Chillin Wit Ma Bitch, Get Loose) and him callin himself king of the south. hes only been around barely for 3 years. if anything i consider Trick Daddy or Luda to be kings, Trick's been around 6 - 9 years and luda been here since 1999. but besides that great album. this lives up to its mainstream success. one of the few that are actually good. ex. Red Light District, The Documentary, Street's Disciple, College Drop Out."
+7272,2,like it,WAS A VERY GOOD MOVIE HAD SOME FUNNY PARTS WAS WORTH RENTING.I ONLY GAVE IT 4 STARS.I WOULD NOT RENT IT AGAIN BUT DID ENJOY IT.
+7273,1,"Phone Complains ""Unauthorized Charger""","Although this charger is suggested when purchasing the Verizon Razr, the phone complains that this an ""Unauthorized Charger"" and it will not charge the phone. Do not waste your time with this."
+7274,2,Was perfect!,I will buys more and recommend them to many here in the 50th state...items arrived fast as described and the price was right!
+7275,1,"If Franken Is 37, Where Is Bush?","Seriously, why do people sit around and read propoganda? Michael Moore and Ann Coulter are the same person. They tell half-truths with the intent to distort reality so that they can convince people of their point of view. Goldberg is not a dime different. He's figured out that there are a million people out there who will buy any book that unilaterally supports their point of view and that in no way tries to provide context or perspective. This sort of behavior is inantile and ultimately allows extremists to rule, because the flow of information only supports their extreme views.No intelligent person would spend a minute reading abook like this."
+7276,2,Ay-Carumba!,Great pack of playing cards for any lover of the Simpsons. Good quality cards that have illustrations of your favorite Simpsons' characters on them.
+7277,2,Apple vs Peers,"Marc Anthony's Album El Cantante is good when you see it as it is;; the soundrack of a movie in which he was playing and singing the part as Hector Lavoe. Of course that if you compare the songs on the soundrack with the originals songs Marc's performance will not be good. But what are we really talking about here: about his singing skills and talents as a salsa singer, which are SUPERB! or about the imitiation of Hector Lavoe?Talking of both he really hit the mark!!"
+7278,2,Excellent read,"When I first got this book, I wanted to put off reading it because it's kinda long. Nothing I haven't done before, but school was going on, and I just wanted something to occupy my time. Bad idea for this book. As to the length, it flies by. I found myself on page 122 and it felt as if I'd just opened it up. The story is fun. That's not a word I generally use to describe a book I'm reading. The style is lacking compared to contemperaries such as Hugo, and there is no real ""deep thinking"" involved. It is pure escape literature, in it's finest form."
+7279,1,"Poor. Tell a story, don't try to be an artist.","This was a sad book -- sad because the author tried to become William Faulkner and write in stream of consciousness. Unfortunately, unlike Faulkner, it ends up being unintelligible babble. This gets further complicated when the author misuses words (such as using the word ""debtor"" to indicate the person to whom a debt is owed, rather than the person borrowing). Mistakes like this kill the credibility..."
+7280,1,A lot smaller inside than expected.,"With the controls on the bottom, you would think this Toaster Oven is wider inside! The inside is less than 12 inches across and the tray sits so close to the top coils I would be afraid anything that sizzles would start a fire. I can't say how well it works because we didn't try it...just packed it back up after seeing the inside. Maybe the inside dimensions of these things should be available on the item page."
+7281,1,"Cheap, Cheap and Cheaper","Cheap, flimsy Chinese junk. Won't last a week under normal use. How do I know?? I've owned one of the original Workmates for 30 years. Returned the flimsy junk and will rebuild the original for another 30 years of reliable use."
+7282,1,Handle cracked after one use,"To be fair, the pitcher was beautiful. The glass was heavy and thick; no bubbles in mine. I put ice water in it and when I picked up the pitcher to pour, the bottom part of the handle cracked. It was just too heavy with fluid in it I guess. I would recommend only filling the pitcher part way and hold from sides and bottom to pour from it. Do not lift by the handle."
+7283,2,"Cool product, make sure you have room","If you're like me, you are buying this to dust of the front element on your camera lens. This product is great for that and only blows air so you never have to worry about accidentally blowing coolant from a compressed air can onto your glass.The downside that I've found (specifically for this model, the 'large' size) is that it is quite tall and the red tip does not screw off. I have the 'Canon 2400 SLR Gadget Bag' and this fits in there but leaning a little to the side. I don't want to waste the space giving it a compartment either. It might close straight up but I'm afraid of breaking the tip. It's not poor construction quality, I just open and close my bag a lot.Pros: cheap(price); solid construction and build; reusable; eco-friendly;Cons: the 'large' model is large and may not fit in your camera bag standing up."
+7284,2,a great book,this is a great book . i recommend it to every one.it gives a deep insight into the terrorist mind set...
+7285,1,:(,"Well, this is a disappointment. Not the game, I haven't been able to really play it, but the fact that it's not compatible with Vista.I've had a copy of it for years that I bought on Ebay, but was never able to play it because my computers over the years would lock up while running it. I've finally got a really great gaming computer and it turns out that the game won't run on Vista. Maybe now with LJS coming back to the writing world, this game, or others like it, will be created. We can hope!"
+7286,2,Sequence-Great Game,We're addicted. A friend recommended it - I bought it a year later and we play it every night. We play with our neighbors and also our six year old. Our six year old is able to get the strategy and wins sometimes. A great game for two people or six people.
+7287,2,I love Jeeves and Wooster,My wife and I like to dress up and have semiformal dinners. Frequently we will put our computer on the table so that we can watch Bertie and Jeeves. It adds to the magical moments of our lives.I recommend this series very highly.
+7288,2,Very good quality mic,"I use this microphone with my Kodak Zi8 minicam. I get very good results from recording hard rock band live, better than most video cameras there. High school band performances are very good. The bass response could be a little better, but I am currently fixing that inside my video production software using EQ. Would not pay more than $50 for this mic. Can use mic as lavaliere, or hide inside props for picking up interviews, conversation or amateur movie making."
+7289,1,Don't waste your money,"These discs will not stay on the sander. The pile on the back is so short that it won't attach. I have bosch and makita sanders, and the disc will not stay on either sander. I purchased discs from porter cable at the same time. They are 100% better."
+7290,1,"Smaller than U think, flimsy","This step stool is not worth it - the steps that are shown extended in the photo connect only via a plastic groove in the red plastic cross bars shown on the legs of the stepstool. Therefore, when you move the stool, the steps flop along. You have to move them out yourself and put them back in yourself. They come off too easily so you are having to place them inside the groove whenever you move the stool/chair. The stool itself is very small and while this is OK for a stationary perching stool, it is NOT good for a step stool and too small and uncomfortable as a seat."
+7291,2,Impressive Sleep CD,"I have finally found an effective safe method of getting a restful night's sleep. I would highly recommend this CD to anyone who has ever had a fitful night's sleep.Jonathan Rubin, MD"
+7292,2,A Must For Fans,Like many other adventures Of Beavis & Butthead this one is surely a winner. Any Beavis & Butthead fan should have this one even if you are not very familiar with B & B this is a good place to start.
+7293,1,Very disappointing,The songs on this set have been reengineered. One of the 2 CDs is particularly bad. A background beat has been added that sounds like it was done by a 5 year old with a new Casio.
+7294,1,Not my thing,"Watched w/ladyfriend, both of us are foreign flick fans. Alas, we got lost along the way due to the boredom. Has some moments but I would avoid."
+7295,2,Destined to become a favorite.,"I love cook books and have a pretty good collection of them. I can tell this one is destined to become a favorite. We all have a cookbook, worn and smudged, that we turn to over and over. This is one of those books. It has everything from a basic white sauce to emulsified butter sauces. It also has salsa and pasta sauces, salad dressings and mayonnaises. For the grill meister it even has BBQ sauces and marinades.As noted before it is not a beginners cookbook, but if you possess the basic kitchen skills you should be fine with it. It will definitely help you add a little flair to your next get together."
+7296,2,Love all her ballads,"I love all her ballads. They are all good. Clearly she has the voice and all the chops.WIth the slow and jazzy numbers, she is in her elements and at her souldering best. Her smoky voice is defintiely her strength and is showed off best in the ballads.Remove the R&B; numbers and replace with more of the same and this would be a perfect album.Thank goodness I was able to reburn it to make it perfect."
+7297,1,why would anyone buy this?,"Buy this if:1. You absolutely have to use a Palm for whatever reason2. You need the extra computing power and memory over the older Palm modelsDo not buy this if:1. You need it to last more than 6 months2. You actually want to use the email / internet / capability3. you want to use the MP3 player4. you like well designed and up to date softwareThe operating system on it has not been updated since 2004. Its truly frustrating to use.My touchscreen started to get buggy about 6 months after I bought it.The customer support at Palm insisted it was the third party software. But it wasn't.Finally, after rebooting constantly, the touchscreen died -- right after the warranty expired.But I struggled with the touchscreen for about 6 months before it finally died.Honestly, there is no reason to buy palm anymore. I loved the old palm models but the new ones are just so poorly made that they die months after they come out of the box."
+7298,2,love them!!!,"they are just as sturdy as the wooden trowels, yet easier to cut and cheaper. You still need to put a wooden trowel in the center, but use the straws for secondary support :)"
+7299,1,The Rough Guide Phrasebook is much better.,I used the Lonely Planet Guide until I found the Rough Guide Phrasebook. I found myself using more Chinese once I started using the Rough Guide because I could find the words I needed more quickly. The Chinese-English section is brief but invaluable.
+7300,2,"The author is very detail oriented, and explores all sides","The claim that not ONE British account of the genocide is present is ludicrous. The book has plenty of accounts from ALL sides. Take Page 119: Captain Harry Armstrong, ranking officer is being marched through the desert by a Turkish army unit when he comes across proof. People need to read this book before they make ludicrous claims about it."
+7301,1,Not Sandra's Best,Ms. Brown has written better romance novels. Don't give up on her if this was your first Sandra book.The feeble female lead struggles with a 15-year crush that walks back into her life. The smug male lead acts like a jerk through most of the novel. The romance scenes grapple to muster up passion but fall short. Both of the main characters bothered me; my favorite character was the 17-year old.A quick read...about 4 hours (with interruptions) for me...but probably not worth it.
+7302,2,easy to follow,"From Cisco comes a very easy to read explanation of what is a wireless network and how to set one up. Clearly addressed to the technology neophyte.Geier shows the basic ideas behind multipath propagation, and attenuation of a signal due to air, water and obstacles. He also outlines the qualitative features of various communication encodings, like Quadrature Amplitude Modulation, Phase Shift Keying and spread spectrum. The amount of maths behind these, in technical texts, is immense. But he gives you the gist.There is also a good discussion of security in a wireless net, and what you can do to protect yourself."
+7303,2,Love and Respect,"This is the perfect book. If all couples followed the advice from this book, we would have beautiful marriages! This book is Biblically based,it makes perfect sense. We just need to put it into practice!"
+7304,2,Solid performances,"This is a re-issue of their 1985 In Concert CD with a different cover. Despite the cover picture, America was a duo in 1985 when this was recorded not a trio (Dan Peek left the group in 1977). But this a very good CD. The performances are sharp and solid. America can rock!"
+7305,2,Great for any level practitioner,"I found this to be a very helpful list of tricks and tips for the PR trade. The author presents some great observations in a funny, but informative style that keeps you glued to the page."
+7306,2,Wonderful story,"This shows that a movie can be great without profanity, sexuality, or gore. A beautiful, positive story of being the best you can be. Peer pressure is something that can make you not like who you are when you're alone and the male lead in this discovers that he can live without the approval of the wrong crowd. And teaches them they can be better without doing wrong to impress someone else. The person you've always ridiculed and called names may be your best friend or the love of your life. A lesson to teens or adults who live to follow the crowd. Or just a great movie to relax with, with tissues handy of course."
+7307,2,Great first books for babies!,"Overall, these books are great first books for babies. My daughter is 10 months old and loves them. (Her brother is a little over two years old and he likes them too.) The pages are easy for her to turn and she'll pull these books off the shelf and turn the pages all by herself. The illustrations are bright and hold her attention and she like to explore the textures. The books are well made for touch and feel style books and seem to be holding up well. There are six sentences per book. The cover is the beginning of the book and there are five additional two-page spreads. This book has a bobbly nose, hairy eyebrows, fuzzy spikes, bumpy paws, rough horns, and fluffy ears. Each of the six textures are really distinct from each other. The monsters are adorable. This is a great example of a book in this series."
+7308,1,I thought I was sent the wrong part.,"After carefully checking the part numbers, I realized I had the correct item. Then I had to ask how did such a poorly designed item come from Paslode. The Non-Mar Contact Element doesn't fit the cordless framing nailer using the screws that hold the adjustable Standard Work-Contacing Element on the tool. It appears as though new screws must be purchased, or a shim must be made (see another reviewer's comments). I haven't had a chance to figure out what I will have to do to make this thing work with the Non-Mar Contact Element. Needless to say, Paslode needs to make a correction (include screws with the Non-Mar Contact Element, or redesign the Non-Mar Contact Element so that it can be adjusted without tools like the Standard Work-Contacting Element. Until such a correction is made I would avoid the Non-Mar Contact Element unless you absolutely need it. If you figure out how to make it fit the tool, please let me know."
+7309,1,Do NOT buy!!!,"Did not work with our wii remotes. I charged the battery packs in the remotes -- and then the remotes could NOT sync with our wii. When I called Nintendo they told me that this product was NOT endorsed by them - they do not recommend using rechargable batteries......after I put regular batteries back in , Nintendo talked me through the sync process again - and thank goodness, we had not done any damage to our system...DO NOT buy this product! It is NOT compatible with the wii......."
+7310,1,this movie is poor.,"I love the first sniper movie it was great. This sniper reloaded wasn't. There are a bunch of stupid scenes and the story line is awful. Example: a scene where the star character Sgt. Beckett shoots the radiator of a jeep that causes it to loose control and wreak,what? Also the beginning of the movie where Sgt Beckett urges his team to stay out of the line of sniper fire but half the movie he's running straight out into the open. Billy Zane has no significant roll. This movie was more like a TV movie on the USA network. Weak, please stop making sniper sequels they suck. Don't bother with this one."
+7311,1,The same one-sided pro-Greek garbage as always,"Investigative journalism instead of rehashed pro-Greek and anti-Macedonian propaganda would have been nice, but that is of course too much to expect from an author who enjoys patronage of Athens.Where are the accounts from ethnic Macedonians? Referring to Kosovo as Kosova also shows the author's stance on that issue.Utter garbage, which fails to pay due attention to the Macedonians and their cultural heritage. There are much better books on Macedonia that discuss the Macedonian Question from a far more neutral standpoint than this one. John Shea's: Macedonia and Greece comes to mind."
+7312,1,Didn't like it,"I ordered this thinking it was music from Nickelback and to my dismay found it was only history of the band. No where in the description of the cd did it say it was only words and no music until I received the cd and it read so on the back. I sent it back for a credit. Did not want to add this to my ""music"" collection. If I want to know a biography about a band I will read a book or magazine."
+7313,1,Awful Rice Cooker,"As other reviewers have said, this rice cooker is awful! When I cook brown rice, it burns the bottom of the rice no matter if I cook a lot of rice or just a little bit. When I cook white rice, it boils over and makes a mess on the counter.The steamer that comes with it is a horrible design. there is a crack at the bottom and if food gets in there, it is a pain to clean out. Also, it is designed to sit perfectly on top of the rice cooking pot, but it is sometimes hard to get it to the right position and you risk the steamer bin falling off the rice cooker.Also, how expensive is an on/off switch? Why they didn't include one is beyond me. Why do I always have to unplug the thing to turn it off? I hate having the plug lying around the counter when I am not using it.As others have said, the only good thing about this rice cooker is that it looks nice. Avoid this rice cooker. There are plenty of better options."
+7314,2,Brice Shephard,Very powerful Ive used it 3 times so far and it appears to be built to last I would recommended this for any home mechanic/ do it yourselfer. Just remember that all pneumatic tools should be oiled with each use (just a few drops in the air nipple where the hose hooks on).
+7315,2,The book is well worth the read.,"As a fifth grade teacher, I read this story to my class. They loved it and we were all caught up in the mystery and the characters. Be careful, when you read the first book you will want to continue reading the entire series. I recommend this for people who love historical fiction and want something well-researched about the medieval times."
+7316,2,well written account of a brave women's fight with cancer,"June Mumme writes about her winning battle to overcome cancer and the climb that she and her husband, University of Kentucky's head football coach, Hal, made from coaching high school football to the collegiate level. The book can be enjoyed on two levels. First, how June raised her family and overcame a near fatal blow with breast cancer. And as a football coach and a great admirer of Hal Mumme, I found that it gives insights into coaching not found in many coaching manuals."
+7317,2,great book,My kids love to listen to this story. It is a great way to get them to learn their states without even knowing.
+7318,2,Wow!,"This is a very nice, well made product. It is also a steal at $25. You will have to get bolts or screws to install this, which will cost less than $5."
+7319,2,JOHN WILLIAMS IS THE JEDI MASTER OF MUSIC,THIS SOUNDTRACK IS BY FAR ONE OF THE BEST YET FROM MR.WILLIAMS BUT WHEN HAS HE EVER NOT TAKEN A FEW SIMPLE NOTES OF MUSIC AND SENT THEM TO THE STARS THANKS JOHN....AND OF COURSE GEORGE
+7320,2,Psychic Spies and Uri Geller,This remarkable film describes the previously SECRET psychic spying program at Stanford Research Institute during the Cold War and also shows 30 min. of never before released footage of Uri Geller at SRI.
+7321,1,Disappointed,"I've been a fan of the Globe Trekker series, and I always liked Megan McCormick. However, this video was disappointing. There isn't a logical narrative to this video. As others have complained, having two hosts didn't work.What does it say when I forgot I owned this video until I stumbled across it?It didn't offer me surprises or compelling reasons to visit a place that hasn't been better covered by others like Rick Steves."
+7322,2,Mini amp,This is a good mini amp. Good for practice around the house. It comes with a wall plug in or I like it uses batteries too. It was good pick up for the price. Is very small and portable! Shipped quick..
+7323,2,a visual treat,"I was really looking forward to this book. And, I have to admit it was not quite what I was expecting. I truly enjoyed the paintings and reading about Paul Auster and his strange and interesting typewriter. But, I expected more in the way of reading. I took the book to the gym, expecting a nice long read. Sadly, I was finished with the book before I even broke a sweat, and that was a dissapointment. The writer is such a creative and imaginative storyteller, full of surprises. I wanted him to reveal more, to tell more and weave this story into something I could really sink my teeth into. But, the real star of this book is Sam Messer and his wonderful paintings. Perhaps I would have enjoyed this more if it were presented like a *big* art book, with large pictures, and plenty more of 'em. Really, I shouldn't complain. Ihe book is super cool, and definately worth the small amount of money I parted with to enjoy its company."
+7324,1,Flame Out,It would be a nice torch if it would light and stay lit. The only way this torch would light was to hold the tip close to a non-combustable surface & push the light button. As soon as it was moved away from the lighting position the torch would go out. Returned product & went back to more expensive and reliable Bernzomatic. Reliability trumps expense every time.
+7325,1,The Worst of Kirk Whalum,Kirk Whalum is a fantastic saxophonist but this one is a disaster!! It doesn't deserve a mention let alone a place in the collection of true Jazz lovers. Please do not judge Whalum by this CD. I'd recommend 'Unconditional' instead.
+7326,1,APPALLING,"This book is a disgrace. My copy is going in the trash immediately. As a Christian, I don't want to keep at least this copy in the market. If it was possible to give zero stars I would do so."
+7327,2,Terrific Zombie Movie,"Loved it! As good or better than Shawn of the Dead. Great acting, very funny! I would highly recommend it."
+7328,2,a better jackson album,surprisingly!!!....this is by far one of the better jackson albums of all the brother's and sister's....only mike's off the wall and thriller are better.....had he gotten more radio play and exposure he'd be right up there with the other two....lol
+7329,2,A great old movie,"The movie arrived quickly and it was a pleasure to watch it once again. The only bad thing? I went to put it away after I watched it, and found we already had a copy!! :-)"
+7330,2,I've known the author for over 20 years,"I have not read the book, but I've known the author since high school (over 20 years) and know how much time and care he put into writing it. I've worked on a couple of projects with Craig and have always been blown away by his technical ability. For this book, he took great care in putting together the hardware and software examples and tested everything himself. In addition, he was meticulous about his research. I can say with great confidence that you will not be disappointed if you buy this book."
+7331,1,What Were They Thinking?,"When I was younger, I was a huge fan of all the great horror series: Halloween, Nightmare On Elm Street, and, of course, Friday the 13th. I can watch them now and laugh, especially at this garbage to which the filmakers obviously had no idea what they were doing. This used to be a great series, but the last 4 or 5 have been a major disappointment. Jason Goes to Hell: The Final Friday steals basically every idea from Halloween and N.O.E.S., and it doesn't stay consistant with it's previous sequels. The plot and acting are terrible, and it never quite feels like a Friday movie, but rather a cheap imitation of one. The only good thing about this movie was the very end, and even that now seems a little silly, too."
+7332,2,Realistic 100% pure entertainment,"This was much better than all the great reviews I'd read. it has the realism you need to truly enjoy a great movie, not at all hokey like die hard 2. I mean lets face it, in 2 there are so many things that convieniently just happen to happen, its like they were trying to entertain our kids and left us out. I dont know why so many rave about 2 being the best of the 3, but now there's a new top DH, and 4 is storming way ahead by a landslide. I give it 5 stars because you can entertain me that way every day and I'll be as happy as if I danced with Julia Roberts. Umm,,,, Almost!"
+7333,1,glad I didn't buy,I borrowed this from the library before I bought. Turns out it was a good idea. I only found 3 recipes I would actually make for our dog. too bad... the pictures are super cute.
+7334,1,The Original Maverick,"I totally agree that it is the Original Maverick TV Show that people want, especially the ones starring James Garner.David N."
+7335,2,"English Subtitles for Spanish Speakers? (No ""Off"" option)","A small complaint: Knowing that there is a vast amount of Spanish speakers in the United States, why, Focus Features, didn't you create an option to turn the English subtitles off? Moreover, why didn't you also add Spanish subtitles for the Spanish-speaking hearing impaired?In the Languages Menu, under the Subtitles options, the only choices are ""French"" or ""None."" If you select ""None"" you get English subtitles.I'm complaining because you could've made a good DVD much better for a very, very small cost and satisfied the majority of your demographic in the process.You guys need to give me a job."
+7336,1,too big and look cheap,"I am not sure anyone would still use 17"" laptop. this is designed to carry 17"" laptop. I bought it because I thought it would help me carry small laptop and extra stuff, it turned out I could not do it, so I returned it."
+7337,1,Buy the updated version!,"Please note how old this edition is (1992!) and choose the updated editionEat Well, Lose Weight, While Breastfeeding: The Complete Nutrition Book for Nursing Mothers. We've learned a lot about diet, nutrients, and bfing in the last 14+ years!"
+7338,2,The volume could be louder,"I like the phone, its features and performance, but I wish the volume of the handset or a headset could be set louder. The speakerphone volume is loud enough for me."
+7339,1,Grossly Outdated Material,"While this may have been a very good book in 1979, the, avian information gained over the last 20 years makes these older book obsolete, if not down right dangerous. These older books should remain out of print. I would recommend a more recent publication including periodicals such as ""Bird Talk"" magazine with up to the minute articles from today's (1999) experts. I've kept African Grey's for almost 10 years now."
+7340,1,Ok product,Do not see any improvements or changes with my hair since using the product I have very long blonde hair. It does smell great!
+7341,1,Genre error,"I thought that this recording would contain symphony only. However, it was too wordy. One has to listen very closely to the dialogue to see what it is about. Takes too much time! Judged my mistake when told that those who bought this CD also ordered etc. Which I ordered and it too was a talk/music type recording. Therefore, wrong genre."
+7342,2,"Wonderful book, even for very experienced sewer",I have been sewing for over 40 years. I got a computerized machine three years ago. This book opened up so many techniques that are easily mastered and provides excellent pictures and instructions. This inexpensive book will open your eyes to many wonderful uses of your machine.
+7343,1,Absolutely terrible!,I do not recommend anyone to see this movie. Poor story line and unpleasant acting.I advise no one to watch this movie.
+7344,2,GREAT MOVIE....,Loved the movie..... very disappointed in AMAZON and the release day delivery.... Received on friday instead of tuesday.... the day it came out... NOT too happy....
+7345,2,SMOOTH & SHINY!,"This product works really well to smooth and straighten curly hair. The addition of steam seems to give hair an added sheen.If you're going to use it on a daily basis a conditioner or other hair product would be helpful. Also, if hair is very naturally curly some slight touches of hair spray will hold the ""straightness"" for a longer period of time.For a really shiny look add a bit of gloss."
+7346,1,What about morning sickness?,"A friend sent me this book as she knew that I was suffering from 24 hour 'morning' sickness. After reading a few pages, I felt even worse! Instead of reassuring me, it made me feel that I was somehow failing because I could not simply deal with my sickness and eat the totally impractical Best-Odds diet. The tone is often patronising - for example, suggesting that I am ignorant or irresponsible if I order a tuna sandwich on white bread. It's maybe worth reading this book for the few practical ideas that it gives. However, after feeling guilty for several days for having eaten white bread - not wholewheat - for the first trimester (one of the few things that I could eat at all), I put the book away and decided to use common sense instead."
+7347,1,Got one use out of it.,"I'll start by saying ""you get what you pay for"". Except for a few parts, it's totally made of plastic, so the depth gauge didn't stay secured. As a result, I got uneven depth routes. The screws on the bottom of the three metal posts vibrated loose mid route. You can't tighten them without fear of cracking the plastic base (which I did -- and I didn't over tighten either). Once the base cracked at the screws, it's done. It's on it's way to recycling! Great idea, but bad design."
+7348,1,Run of the mill,"Placido Domingo, Adriana Maliponte, Jose Van Dam and Georges Pretre all recorded this opera commercially - two of them several times - so the interest in this recording lies with Fiorenza Cossotto. Her interpretation is quite standard; she ignites no sparks and brings no new insights to the part. Her voice is a little brighter than many people may be used to in their gypsy seductress but there is nothing really to complain about.The sound is standard for a live recording of the 1970s. It improves with repeated listenings. The version uses the traditional Guiraud recitatives instead of spoken dialog.All in all, unless you're a diehard Cossotto fan, there is little reason to purchase this. Go for one of the inexpensive commerical recordings."
+7349,1,Not Furst's best work,"This one is a far cry from Furst's earlier works. Very little in the way of a plot, and even that is pretty thin. It seems to have no beginning, middle or end, or any real defining climax. I read this one out of principle, as other books by Furst have been immensely satisfying (particularly Dark Star, Night Soldiers)."
+7350,1,Not hot enough!,"I loved my old George Foreman grill but hated cleaning it. When this one came out with the removable plates I ran out and bought it. What a disappointment! This new one has temperature control (unlike my old model which was either ""on"" or ""off"") and the highest setting is 425 degrees. Apparently this just isn't hot enough. As another reviewer said, the food doesn't grill, it steams!If you like grey, tasteless hamburgers, then this is the appliance you want. As for me, I'm gonna go dig my old GF grill out of the charity box in the garage."
+7351,1,A waste of the paper it is printed on,"I was expect high standards from this book given that is was from Sams Publishing, but it looks like no one proof read this book. There are missing or incorrect images throughout this book. When pointing this out to Sams Publishing, they fobbed me off telling me that they would get in touch with the author to get him to send the missing or incorrect pictures. I am still waiting 2 months later. I would say ignore this book, unless it is second edition. I just find it would be a good book, if someone had check it out first. Nevermind, try again. :("
+7352,2,Amazing Story,"Wow. I had to read this book for school so when I first picked it up I wasn't really into it. After the first several chapters I did not really want to put the book down. The quality of this man's raw faith was so amazing and as I kept reading I found myself wanting what this guy had. I thought that the author's view of what heaven might be like was interesting. Granted, it's probably not all going to be true but I like that he put his ideas in there. All in all, this story is so beautiful and I greatly appreciate what Christians in China must go through. I would definitely buy this book again."
+7353,2,No more burned food!,"Being such a bad cook, I almost always burn my food at least a little, but with this deep Lodge Combo Cooker that is no more the case. I just set the electric range to a little above the lowest, and the whole cooker gets hot and cooks everything to perfection. No more hot spots in the center, everything is equally warm!I than serve the food, and just rinse the pot and cover with warm water, dry it with a paper towel and oil it right away, it always looks like new this way, maybe better.I do not like for Amazon to charge sales tax, this product came from out of state! I do not have to pay tax to another state.In the future I will look for other stores first, I used to trust Amazon.com, but ???I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS PRODUCT OF THE BEST QUALITY!Rudolf.Lodge LCC3 Logic Pre-Seasoned Combo Cooker"
+7354,1,EXTRA-BLAND,"Very poorly executed, over produced garbage. There are 100,000 bands doing the same style that are much better than these guys..."
+7355,1,Get the original LeapPad instead,"Our family has the original LeapPad, and recently purchased a LeapPad Plus Writing. I must say that there is no comparison between the two products, and the original LeapPad system is by far superior. My kid love playing LeapPad, however the addition of a graphite pencil is a mess! Once the pages are written on, you can never get them completely clean, and also younger kids have a hard time erasing it all together. If we were to do it all over again, we would have purchased a second LeapPad system, and not bothered with the ""Plus Writing""."
+7356,1,"Overblown, overdramatic, over the top","Seemed like it was gonna be good. I wanted it to be good. Once the movie started, I kept hoping it would get better - and it never did. Got me squirming in my seat. Can't really recommend it to anyone. Sorry."
+7357,2,The most beautifuly written & illustrated book on Unicorns,This is with out a doubt the most beatifuly written & illustrated book on Unicorns ever published. Every page is a visual & mystical treasure.I reccomend it to any & all seekers of light on the subject of Unicorns.
+7358,1,I don't know....,"This book scared me. Experience truly is the best teacher. Just because one man felt that this was what God wanted him to do, doesn't mean that everyone should do it. This stuff can brianwash you, please think for yourself always. A lot of what this book says will make sense to you, but that doesn't make it right. Dating is a part of life, and getting hurt strengthens us all! Please be careful, everyone."
+7359,2,Love this movie,"I bought this movie a long time ago my daughter, then 18 months, loved it and watched it over and over again. She is now four. I thought this was a very cute movie with a good point which is you are family no matter what happens. My daughter watched it over and over and I never had any trouble with her mimicking anything she saw on TV. She also understood the point of the movie, ""Ohana"" no one gets left behind. I am not sure why there are so many negative reviews about this movie but we never had a problem. I plan on letting my next child, due in Feb, watch this movie as well. It doesn't have anyone die in it like a lot of Disney movies even though Lilo's parents are deceased. I thought it was one of the best starter movies of Disney."
+7360,2,Very entertaining read,"I will recommend this book to anyone who wants a fast-moving, fairly light read about a man's misery and subsequent re-birth. The questions asked here are faced by lots of people, and the reader is amusingly pulled in as he tries to figure out how this guy will resolve his crisis. Give it a chance!"
+7361,1,BUYER BEWARE!!!!!!!!!!!,"DO NOT BE FOOLED WITH THE TITLE OR DESCRIPTION OF THIS DVD. IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE F-16!!!!! IN FACT, THERE IS ONLY ABOUT 15 SECONDS OF FOOTAGE AND TALK OF THE F-16. WORST DVD I'VE EVER BOUGHT!!!! DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY!!!!"
+7362,2,Beatriz' voice has a dazzling range...,"...and the spirit with which she interprets this great variety of musical styles -- from ballads to rollicking rancheras -- is truly incomparable. ""La Folklorica Mas Bonita"" is a collection of some of Mexico's most beloved songs: it's not only a lilting trip through the country's regions and their music, but a great way to hear and enjoy Spanish as it's actually spoken, in all its expressiveness. Beatriz conveys emotions from the most poignant to the most in-your-face, and she has a wondrous, laugh-out-loud, sense of humor. It so happens that my two favorite songs are the last two, ""Soy La Otra"" and ""Las Margaritas"", one a bittersweet ballad and the other an outlandish polka, but I NEVER fast-forward through the rest of the CD -- its range of tracks, and the range of Beatriz' voice, are worth experiencing again and again."
+7363,1,useless info,I was expecting some kind of insight instead got all those background/history reports of women's role in society. The author stayin in France for a couple of year made her think she qualified to judge/report. The whole book is piled up useless statistics and old info.
+7364,2,Quick and Easy,"Compact, portable, quick and easy. I use it to keep my batteries topped off whencovering an event. I use the adapter for the car when I don't have easy access toAC plug. Works great!"
+7365,2,Clippers,"I really like the clippers, it works nicely, cutes even and isn't loud at all. The carrying case accomodates everything, however it is a bit unorganized."
+7366,2,outstanding!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!,"in this album Lavoe/Colon touches on a child like song ""Ghana'e"" ""abulita"" sings about Willie's and Hector's Grandma's unforgettable pieces of salsa music"
+7367,1,Politically motivated film,Enter the United States of America legally and then obey the laws of the United States of America and you won't be deported. So I really didn't have empathy for the situation. The acting was terrific. Action slow and sometimes tedious.
+7368,1,Disappointing!!,"We purchased this item 2 weeks ago at a local store. It has been a very disappointing toy. The Mermaid's arms keep falling off, the hinged part of the toy have trouble staying together, and the mermaid has a hard time keeping her fins on. Very poor quality."
+7369,2,great general introduction,This book presents a great way to learn and master the tricky skills that must become instinctive for any good mountain bike rider. It also has plenty of helpful advice on practically everything from how to find the right bike to how to bike through snow. The only drawback is it's age. It seems to be written before the time of the internet and decent rear shock designs.
+7370,1,Non existant service--bad band--watch broke after 9 mo.,"I bought this watch and within one month the band broke. I also noticed that it lost about 2 minutes per week. Then after having it for a little less than 9 months, the larger movement stopped working altogether. I notified Amazon who refered me to the seller, OmniWatches. The phone number just rang and rang and they never answered my e-mail. Enough said."
+7371,1,Doesn't work in the cold?,"Worked well first couple of weeks, but then headphones stopped turning on and audio quality diminished when they were turned on. Maybe the problems were caused by the cold? I haven't called customer support about it, yet."
+7372,1,Oh Please!,"Given the fact that today's leading scientists cannot agree on many aspects of evolution, packaging that theory as a fact and marketing it as a fun activity book for children is a slippery slope. One of the foundations of science is proposing a theory and then setting out to prove or disprove that theory. That has not been done with evolution in (even thoroughly biased) modern science! Shameful that we teach our children WHAT to think, not HOW to think. The whole book is contrived and ridiculously unreadable to me since it indoctrinates assumptions as fact."
+7373,2,Quest rockets,Instructions were clear. I wold recommend using a hot glue gun if you r doing it with children under 12 as it takes a lot of patience and time to glue the fins on with Elmers white glue
+7374,2,Excellent stand,"I bought the stand used but when it came it looked brand new. It tilts a little, but other than that it is a sturdy professional stand."
+7375,1,Junk,"I had to get a saw and my wife came back with this piece of junk.It will cut a plank in half, but should you need the cut to be 90 deg, forget it.Dont adjust the angle just bend the base back to 90 deg, it will bend out of true again, so why bother. Just throw it away. Junk.Thank you B and D for your waste of resources."
+7376,2,Best thing I got!,"My daughter loved this swing! Motor gets a little loud when the batteries need changing, but that wasn't an issue for me. Very easy to change swing positions, love the sounds/music, daughter loved trying to catch the fish on the mobile. Perfect spot for her be when I was alone and needed to run to the bathroom or even take a shower, make dinner, etc. Don't know how I would have lived without it. Ended up buying a second one for the in-laws. Very easy to put together, take apart and take the cover off to wash."
+7377,1,"Tinker, Tailor, Terrible Spy Thriller","Before I saw the movie I thought it prudent to read the book. Bought it on kindle and started in....Forced myself to keep reading, hoping I would figure out the plot, characters, setting, etc. I am 65 years of age and have always been an avid reader, especially of spy thrillers. It was not a thriller. It was more of a ""What the heck?"" I have to say that I have never read a more uninteresting book. Instead of not being able to put it down, I forced myself to pick it up, just to get it over with it.Anyway, I will not be seeing the movie. The book was terrible."
+7378,2,The Whole Family Uses It.,We began using BBB 4 years ago with my first son - primarily after baths. Good lather all over his body including face. I started using on my dry nose and chin area and it was such an incredible improvement in the general moisture and health of my skin. Now I'm using it all over my face (especially in cold months) and on any dry patches like shoulders and shins. One of the greatest products I've discovered in my 37yrs. All four family members use this product every day.
+7379,2,Glamorous Biography,"Here is some Hollywood history written by Gloria Vanderbilt. The book is a quick read, and the stories she tells about all her famous boyfriends like Howard Hughes, Marlon Brando, Gene Kelly and Frank Sinatra are amazing.I couldn't put this book down. I loved reading about the Glamorous and Romantic life Gloria Vanderbilt has lived."
+7380,2,One of my favorite films,"I like this film a great deal. It's funny, imaginitive and my one year old niece likes it too. It's a film the family can watch together. If you love fantasy get this film."
+7381,2,Terrific Gate,"This is the second stair gate I purchased and installed and it is noticably better than the other one we own, aSafety 1st Perfect Fit Gate. I wasnt unhappy with the Safety 1st gate, but when it came time to get a second gate, I thought I'd give the First Years a try. Installation of this gate could not have been easier, but it is the fit and operation that set it apart. The Safety 1st Gate works fine and seems quite safe, but it has an annoying habit of self-adjusting when you don't want it to. All you have to do is pull up a little too much on the handle and the gate widens itself and then won't close properly. The First Years gate has a positive size-locking mechanism and the top and bottom bumpers can be independently adjusted - very nice for older houses that are not so perfectly plumb. I also like the clear panels which allow us to see through the gate. Very well-constructed and smartly engineered. Great product."
+7382,1,Could have been better,"I bought this book for the unique spreads and read it thoroughly. I would have liked to see explanations for why the cards are laid out in certain order and places. I thought the questions were too specific and would be difficult to answer with numerous cards. Interesting spreads, good subject matter, not well executed or explained at all. Please rewrite the book, Ms. Abraham and I will buy it again."
+7383,1,Redundant,"Although the topic was interesting, the writing was unfortunately far too redundant and lengthy, which made the reading experience mildly entertaining at best, but sometimes just plain annoying."
+7384,2,Firestorm,"If you read ""Firestorm"" just for the description of that disastrous event, you won't be disappointed. However, be sure to finish Firestorm - it has more plot twists than a corkscrew. Great book!"
+7385,2,How much darker is this darker book?,"Although this book has many good things to say about it, there were parts that I was disappointed with. After waiting 3 years from book 4, I was ready for some action. I had read that this book was going to be ""darker than any we've yet seen"", however I didn't think it was. Harry's main struggle was with an annoying Ministry official, whereas I was hoping for a struggle with Voldemort and his gang of Death Eaters. In those respects, I was disappointed. However, it still has a gripping plot. You get to see exactly how much progress Harry is making in school, and in growing up. You get to see some real fighting, and how powerful Dumbledore really is. I'd still recommend this book to anyone."
+7386,1,Not impressed!,I don't like most of the artwork show cased in this magazine. There were only about two magazines the whole year that had good artwork in them in my opinion. I would not recomend this magazine!
+7387,2,Bread baker,As with all clay bakeware fron Reco I am once again delighted with the way this performs. The breads I make are old family recipes and for years I used Grandma's old metal pans and that was fine but over the years those old pans have started to fail. Since I started using the clay bakers the crust turn an even golden brown top and bottom AND I don't have to worry about lining the pans any more. Love this bread baker.
+7388,1,a bit pricy and no mid control...,"I tried this on a live gig from a buddy who raved about this pedal. Its has a great distortion and sustain, but its got a compressor circuit and you cant adjust it or turn it off, when I tried to pound a high note the attack and volume gets squashed/neutered. I know funk bassists and studio cats dig a good compressor but I absolutely cant stand one on my live rig(I expect and count on a GOOD soundman to add it in a live mix, great, as long as I cant hear it). Kinda pricey too, I ended giving this pedal back to my buddy, no thanks. I ended up buying the comparable MXR dist/D.I. that has a mid control and noise gate @ about a third less than what this pedal costs. IMHO a much better deal; more for less and no compress(ion)."
+7389,1,Not what I expected,"I didn't like the music, others may like it, but it was not my taste. It was too religious for me."
+7390,2,fiona hits the spot,"Basically, this is a beautiful album. If you enjoy Dido or Fiona Apple, or appreciate the lighter side of Garbage - then gobble this one down before it goes out of print! Soothing electronica blended with fuzzy guitar, drums (loops) that are interesting enough without trying to bite, and of course Fiona's lush vocals melting over the top. It's a nummy treat... except for 'Wish I Was A Man' with Shihad, not that it's a terrible song... it's just that in the context of this album it's a little bit like a layer of tin-foil in tira-misu (and therefore it cost the overall a star). Every other track belongs: 'Let Me Sleep' is an effective modern lullabye, 'I Don't Care' is beautifully tragic and totally relatable and 'Sin Again' (Ms. Manson must be so jealous,) can make you feel like a human firework. If you like the sound of it... GET IT."
+7391,1,One of the worst,"I'm very very sorry to say this, but this is one of the WORST films I had ever seen!! This film's only about 1 hr long, and it shows Beethoven who is writing music and stuff in somebody's home while a kid who lives in that house complains to the composer. Of course, Beethoven composed many piecies. But in this film, it only shows ONE concert which he conducts Symphony No. 9! And after that, the film's over!! It's the worst! So DON'T BUY IT!!"
+7392,2,Always a classic,My three-year-old grandson just loves this book. The illustrations are beautiful and as an added bonus there is a train in the background in one picture. A great winter tale.
+7393,2,German Teacher Aide de Camp.,"I like all these paradigm verb displays. This is great for using, just for backup, or for quelling an occasional student objection. Of course, if you are wrong, it serves as a negative reinforcement, but that is good for you. Essential for your German references."
+7394,1,Stories may be dark but they certainly aren't fantastic.,"There is no doubt that Ed Gorman is a very talented writer, and two or three of the stories in this anthology show his strengths quite well. But the majority of them are simply made up of tired and shop worn noir nightmare cliches. I found myself skimming over whole paragraphs just to make it through all the morose atmosphere to the 'twist' ending I had figured out as soon as the story began. If you must read this then these are the stories I would recommend - Yesterday's Dreams, Different Kinds of Dead, and The Face. The rest you have probably read before in some form or another by other writers."
+7395,1,Multiple failures over 2 years of service,"This drive was purchased to store large quantities of static data. First drive failed within 2 months of purchase. Was able to recover portion of data after purchasing additional tools. Had to pay shipping and unit was out of service for 1 month. Five months later another disk failure no ability to recover data. Had to pay shipping to have refurbished unit supplied, again a lag in uptime. After a year of service the drive failed again. Technical support could not even answer whether the unit was under warranty. Very down on Technical support and reliability of product. Disks run very warm and poor heat dissipation is why drives failed. Internal drives had three year warranty if purchased from manufacture. You can not get replacements directly from the manufacture and LaCie does not give you a three year warranty."
+7396,2,Scrabble,"This is a classic game and with good reason. It's simple to play, but with infinite levels of game play for all ages and ability. Not only is it fun, but it stretches your vocabulary and mind as well. You'll have many a happy hour if you buy this. Highly recommended.Feel free to check out my blog which can be found on my profile page."
+7397,1,Donot buy it,"I bought it for my daughter in Jan. 2010. The remote did not work well. When you pushed the player button, it only played around 1 mintue song and stoped."
+7398,1,Bizarre non-intuitive design,"This phone performs most of the functions that I wanted, but has some puzzling design flaws.#1 annoyance: instead of clear labels like ""hold,"" ""mute,"" etc., the buttons on this phone have bizarre graphic symbols that look like the international biohazard marker. The only words above the buttons are ""answer on/off,"" ""do not disturb,"" ""find handset,"" and ""flash."" Consequently, no one in my house could figure out how to perform simple functions such as playing and deleting messages until I looked in the manual. And the keys they chose for these things are ridiculously non-intuitive. For example, ""mute"" is assigned to the ""find handset"" key! Of course, I always think ""find handset"" when I want to mute the phone!And I can't for the life of me figure out why they put a mute function on the base station, BUT NOT THE HANDSET. Hello, what is it that people actually TALK into?So other than the fact that this phone is a badly designed piece of junk, it's just great."
+7399,1,Is this all it takes to entertain people in America?,"Utter Rubbish - what more can you say... Why even waste the resources of putting this on DVD? Seems to me anyone who gives this more than 1 star has to either be about 10 years old, or have an IQ that's less than the rating they gave, or just raving nuts! There is nothing at all intelligent or humorous or even well done, just clichéd and formulaic one-liners and as another review said constant endless cheap sex jokes... It really says a lot about the state of the audience in the USA that movies like this are actually financially successful enough to keep producers interested in spawning still more repetitive variants year after year... As mentioned Airplane, Naked Gun, Sledge Hammer, etc, did this reasonably well in their times, but in the last decade the UK has stolen the crown and it seems the USA just can't produce anything that even resembles a quality spoof, at least not since the mid-90's anyway."
+7400,1,what the...,"I bought this because I'm a Pearl Jam fan, and there's 3 PJ tracks on the cd. But the rest (11 tracks) is just so terrible is hillarious.Really anoying African music with no instruments.One of the VERY FEW times in my life I've listend to an album once and put it away for good!"
+7401,2,Underdog in action,"Scott Glen shure knows how to play it cool. Steve Mc Queen cool, but in modern times. The whole movie is a different thing it has a feeling, mostly due to Glens loyality ond respect for his older partner , called ""Higbe"" in the movie. A very nice display of some more ""unknown"" actors and a great ending! Wow I just love it."
+7402,1,That Does It... I'm Bout To Drop Me A Album,"This is a good example of rap today. You don't need to be a MC to land a deal, or even know how to rhyme. All you need to do is come up with a dance move, make songs about your damn clothes and how you party all the time and your on. This ain't right man... it just ain't right !!!"
+7403,2,Clamp has really out done themselves this time.,"Clamp is known for it's beautiful artwork and Card Captor Sakura is far from an exception. The story centers around a little girl named Sakura who happens upon a magic book next to a small sleeping mouse-like creature with wings. She opens the book and 20 cards escape from it. When the mouse creature awakes she discovers that the book is the book of Clow (pronounced like cow not glow) and the cards (clow cards) were trapped inside of it. Since it was she who released them it is now Sakura's job to capture them, hence the name. She goes off and with the help of the mouse creature (I can't for the life of me recall his name) uses a bunch of unique fighting outfits and weapons. This one deserved 6+ stars not 5."
+7404,1,Don't buy if you use Vista,"I love this device because it offers security software and it requires a finger print to access the security software. It is great to save those many logins/passwords/personalstuff that many people cannot remember. But, when I purchased a new computer that came with vista the cruzer profile would not work. I just got off the phone with SanDisk and they told me that it is not compatible with vista and she said that she does not believe that any updates will be released any time soon to fix this problem. This is crap! Do not buy this product if you run windows vista."
+7405,2,Secrets of the Ark,It was a lot of fun to play. I am an adult but love thse mystery type of games. The solution guide is a must to have if you get stuck on a puzzle. It is extra but save a lot of frustration when you are playing it.
+7406,1,"Poor Quality, broken after about a month","It worked well for about the first 10 uses, then it broke. The suction cup tore away from the hard plastic, rendering it useless. Don't waste your money!!!"
+7407,1,not good for apartments,I would like this item more if I didn't live in an apartment building. I have to turn off the sound because it is all static the picture is ok but has static on it too. I can not find a monitor that is good for apartments. I hope to not live in one forever and it still helps me out a little to see the baby. In the end I am keeping the monitor but it needs some inprovements.
+7408,1,Insulting,"This book is an insult to people who do honest work in psychotherapy.This book is catered towards people who do not want to put the time and effort into changing their life. Life is difficult, yes but there are no easy answers. I would rate Dr. Covey as the second-worst author on the market (Next to Dr. Laura) for this reason - life is about the process, not about outcomes and by just focusing on what your want your life to be like wihout focusing on the work to get there, you'll never get there."
+7409,1,WHY BOYS & GIRLS ARE DIFFERENT,"Nowhere did I see a note that this book is not a scientific explanation of the differences between boys and girls and the reasons for the differences. Be aware that this is a religious sidestepping of the subject, in which the child is told that a hetero married couple ""prays to God"" when they want a child.If you were looking for a more complete explanation, keep looking."
+7410,1,Very Unreliable,This router was easy to setup and it was cheap and those are the only two redeeming qualities. The signal is unreliable. When we have multiple devices on it becomes very slow and sometimes doesn't work at all. I have had to reset it several times.
+7411,2,slim fast core grasp of ASP.NET and C# for the experienced,"I knew Java and ASP for several months, and I had to do ASP.NET with C# at work. This is my first and only DOT NET book so far. This slim book got me into working on ASP.NET in few days. This is NOT for the BEGINNING Programmers. If you have experience in OOP like JAVA and Serverside Web scripting like ASP, you would find this book get you to ASP.NET developing fast. It has real world example and explains core essential things. Just what you need to know to get on the job quickly. You don't spend time on what you already know. It doesn't teach you C# but since I knew Java, it was perfectly ok. For more detailed stuff where I needed, I went to MSDN library. To learn more and deep in certain sections, I'll buy some other books. I am giving 5 stars because it's the only book I read and it did good job for my purpose. Thank you very much!"
+7412,1,Don't like the way it's organized and recipe quantities are suspect.,"Only used this book for two recipes so far, fig jam and peach jam. The peach jam recipe calls for 1 quart of diced peaches, but that gives about 10 tiny pieces of peach per half pint jar, the rest of the jar being liquid/jelly. If I wanted jelly I'd have used a jelly recipe. Also the book's organization is difficult. You have to flip back and forth between the recipes and the directions for the canner method, or freezer tips, etc. And lord knows, they could put more warnings about not doubling recipes in prominent places so I don't have to search around for this info. This might be the Bible of canning, but I think it has some more editing and rearranging to do."
+7413,1,Pretentious and predictable,A rather superficial and amateurish attempt at commentary on a profound and classical text.
+7414,2,Gettysburg/Grant Comes East/Never Call Retreat,"Well into the third book in the series. Makes me feel like I was there, (sure glad I wasn't). Great reading, can't seem to put the series down. Sure makes you think on what might have happened. Personality traits of the main characters true to form and parallel nicely with what I have read. I really enjoyed this Trilogy and would strongly recommend it as a ""must read"" by any Civil War Buff as an easy and enjoyable adjunct to what has been written."
+7415,2,Great Water Shoe!,"This was exactly what I was looking for! Soft, flexible, easy to put on. The sole is soft, but has a grip which helps prevents falls at the pool or stepping on something sharp t the beach. Perfect for toddlers with wide feet. My son wears a 6.5W in stride rite. 18-24 months fit perfect but not a lot of room for growth."
+7416,2,"Comfortable, and stylish","In my opinion these are the best shoes ever. I've purchased 5 pair of the same shoe. I wear these everyday with casual attire and work clothes. Due to the constant wear, as soon as the toe or heel begins to look scuffed, I buy another pair. They are extremely comfortable, and fit my narrow foot perfectly, with no gapping on the sides like most shoes."
+7417,1,Oh so clever clever,"A clever premise, some funny moments, but in the end so hollow and self-indulgent. It takes the post-modern vibe and runs too far... stick with David Eggers or David Foster Wallace. I'm sure Maddox can do better--he clearly has talent. But the self-conscious references and 'aren't I clever' showiness get annoying fast."
+7418,1,sex and drugs in the kitchen,"I thought I was going to read some ""kitchen secrets"" rather than ""secrets"" that occurred in the kitchen.If I wanted to read about how a drug addict became famous, there are a lot more autobiographies I'd rather read about. Bourdain's arrogant behaviour and kitchen antics didn't impress me. The message I got was in order to be a successful chef, you have to use obscene language, have loose morals and do drugs. I'm a chef instructor in a culinary arts school in Europe.....is this what I'm supposed to be like to inspire my students????"
+7419,2,great product,"it is so easy to use, light, portable, works great for both my 11', and 15' laptops, and save one from water spill."
+7420,1,Not sure if genuine Wii product,"I ordered two of these remotes as Christmas gifts and just received them today. Much to my surprise, all packaging (and the manual, groan) is in Korean...a language I cannot read. I have to wonder if these are even real Wii remotes. I'll have the recipients test them out on Christmas and return if we run into problems, but I have no idea why I was sent these knock-off looking remotes (though they did come in boxes...also in Korean) instead of what I thought I was paying for."
+7421,1,Worst movie ever?,"This is probably the worst movie I've ever seen. The plot is barely noticable, the actors do even worse. Snoop, who is heavily announced on the cover is only a part of the intro, then he is not to be seen throughout the rest of the movie. To be brief: Do not buy this DVD, it's a waste of money!"
+7422,1,hope for the stupid,"This book illustrates that if someone as stupid as Nicholas Darvas can make money in the stock market so can you.After all, it took this guy several years after he began trading to figure out what the Dow Jones Industrial Average was.Essentially, Darvas used fundamental analysis in conjunction with""stocks that were moving"" and placed trailing stops behind them. Darvas never shorts a stock. The concept would probably be too taxing for his brain.Not a bad system. It supposedly worked for him.In my opinion,their are a few, and only a few, good ideas which can be gleaned from this essentially worthless book."
+7423,1,Had 2 - both quit within 8 months,"We bought this coffee maker and loved he coffee - suddently wouldn't turn on after about 8 months. They sent me a new one - same deal, about 8 months later, wouldn't turn on. Bought a Bunn 2 months ago - great coffee, great coffee maker at this point. Will never buy a Cuisinart again."
+7424,2,Not for Windows ME,"This is a great little printer, but be forewarned. If you want to use it with a PC, there are two discs that come with it. One is labeled Vista, the other 98, ME, 2000, XP. I have an ME PC. When I tried to load the ME disc, it said it REQUIRES XP. So, if you want to use it directly with a camera (the memory card from the camera), you're OK. But if you need your PC and it has 98 or ME, forget it!"
+7425,1,Is this a mono recording?,"This recording sounds mono, not stereo. It reminds me of attending a live symphony while sitting in the top tier of a very large concert hall."
+7426,2,More Gay History Revealed,"I had never heard of this riot, and am glad I have another piece of history related to gays during the 20th century. This puts the Stonewall riots in perspective."
+7427,1,Screen cracks easily and you have to pay for replacement,"my kindle was in my backpack, and i guess there was a little pressure on the screen. the screen cracked and amazon wants $180 for a replacement. you would think for $365, amazon would give you a case to protect the screen or at least put a big warning on the product. now i'm screwed.Jim"
+7428,1,DOESN'T CLICK,"""ISSUES"" MAKES KORN SEEM TERRIBLE. ITS JUST A POOR SEQUEL TO ""FOLLOW THE LEADER"". I DIDN'T EVEN LIKE FOLLOW THE LEADER BUT ITS BETTER THAN THIS. KORN IS DYIING, FACE IT, THEY AREN'T GOOD ANYMORE. DONT GO WITH THIS CD, ITS BORING, THE SAME THING OVER AND OVER AGAIN. I LOVED KORN WITH A PASSION....TODAY IM GIVING UP ON THEM"
+7429,2,"He has truly entered the ""world music"" genre!","If all you know of this Irish-Canadian, reggae-inspired rapper is ""Informer,"" then you need to check out this release. Snow's as melodic and inventive as Funki Porcini or Transglobal Underground. And, he's as political and multi-ethnic as the rants of the Beastie Boys, Ozomatli and Asian Dub Foundation! Hard to believe, I know, but it's true."
+7430,1,Flo N Go 08339 SuperFlo Pump,I used the Flo N Go 08339 SuperFlo Pump exactly 3 times before it fell apart! I was putting it away after filling the tank on my boat when the handle fell off in my hand. It was never dropped or handled roughly. I will look for anew gas can manufactured by another company before wasting any more of my money with this company!
+7431,1,this whip had no crack!,"Satan's Whip. Just a few words about this movie. It was very slow moving, very low budget, and just not very good at all. The salty old priest provided a bit of amusement, but basically it wasn't very well written or interesting. I am a fan of low budget and have seen alot of gems, however this is not one of them."
+7432,1,Apariencia vs Calidad,"Cuando ves estos guantes piensas en comodidad y versatilidad para hacer los levantamientos de pesas, pero lo que tambien tienes en mente es que son de cierta calidad. Lamentablemente al 3er dia de uso ya tenia uno de los sugetadores de las muñecas roto. No lo puedo creer, y eso, que soy principiante y no levanto casi nada de peso.Decepcionado"
+7433,2,"Good umbrella, but the warranty is a lie...","Most of the product's description is correct: it is well-designed and holds up to strong winds. I was a big fan of mine---until it broke. I then learned that the warranty is not really effective, which is something you may want to consider. After mine broke (one of the threads that holds the canape to the spokes failed) I called to have it repaired. They were happy to honor the warranty, but they demand that you pay for the shipping *in both directions*. After you find an umbrella-shaped box, mail it to them, and pay them the 10 dollars they require for shipping and handling to get it back to you, you might as well have just bought a new one (not sure if this is still the case, but last I looked they were under 30 dollars).For now, I've just fixed mine with bit of copper wire. It seems to be holding up so far..."
+7434,2,"Excellent! wWnderful, easy read. Graphically accurate!","'Junky' has been criticized for lacking form, or even tact, but in that is its beauty.'Junky' does not possess the atypical story arc that we are taught in high school English class, but this mimics the junky lifestyle. There is no thought of adventure for the junky. There is no sense of purpose other than the constant search for more junk. Burroughs makes this abundantly clear without being repetative.As for the graphic descriptions, this, too, adds to its atmosphere. Junkies in reality are not phased by their constipation, sores, or disgusting habits, and the matter-of-fact tone of the narration makes that clear.This book is one of those rare and beautiful works that truly gives you a feeling for what it is like to exist in that world."
+7435,1,Defective Item,"Item exactly what I wanted. Then it leaked and the company would not replace. It's leaking more now and I try to fix it with clear duct tape but there's white rice looking seeds all over. Rating system is misrepresenttive. According to my caluculations, Nature Way deserves a 2.6 rating on 1-5 scale."
+7436,2,Use it every day,I use it every day and am glad I have it. It is easy to read and has many different volume units. Prior to buying this from Amazon a few years ago I had to have 2 sets of measuring cups to avoid messes when I needed to measure the same quantity of a liquid and a solid.
+7437,1,Lamp flickers,"I installed this in an outdoor lamp sconce. It does not work for me. During the day the lamp is off, but at night it flickers. I am very diasppointed."
+7438,2,comfortable,"I wear them around town, for comfort. I find them very comfortable, very easy to get on and off. I don't wear them enough to comment on odor issues.When they get wet, they do take some time to dry, but there's not much to get wet anyway."
+7439,2,Love 'em!,"I shopped all over town and then on the Web for Clark's shoes. They were cheapest from Amazon.com and were shipped free of charge, and quickly. Now if we could just get Clark's to make these clogs exactly the same except with a heal (some of us live where it is snowy) I would buy many, many more Clark's shoes."
+7440,2,He Coulda Been a Contenda,"Eric Marcus is one of those once-in-a-lifetime Docs. He has often been compared to Madame Curie (indeed, they share the same taste in clothes), Dr. Z and Dr. Vinny Boom-Bats.His weekly radio show, ""Be glad you're neurotic or I'll kill you"" has been number one in its time period since Jean Shepherd and Bob & Ray hung-em-up.He has been very much in demand as a public speaker. His most current lecture, ""What's that smell?"" has garnered rave reviews from Seattle, WA to Portland, OR.For relaxation, Dr. Marcus always returns to his Ferret farm in Newark, NJ."
+7441,1,Not a very fast moving movie,I love rowing and watching movies which involve rowing. This movie which is specifically about rowing falls short to capture my attention.
+7442,1,"OK, but very hard to use","OK, first, the good:The build quality is pretty good, and the sound is good, the radio works well, and it interfaces easily with the iPod.The bad?The controls are HORRIBLE. The buttons have no feedback to know if you have pressed them, the alarm is really difficult to set, and very hard to know whether you have set it correctly - it's a crap-shoot to know whether the alarm will go off in the morning. I would not recommend this as an alarm-clock, it's a pretty good iPod dock though."
+7443,1,stay away,"grinder #1 died the first time we used it to grind 12 cups worth of beans, returned it and received grinder #2 which worked for 11 batches of beans then died.....grinder #2 is in the trash and will avoid Cuisinart coffee related products."
+7444,2,A & E's Pride and Prejudice,This is a wonderful story and does great justice to the original classic by Jane Austen. It is highly recommended and well worth the time spent watching it.
+7445,2,"A cleaner sound than Oh, Inverted World - very strong album!","The Shins - a wonderful band with two great albums under their belts. This is their second record, and in many ways it is stronger than their first. It's more diverse and the production is of a different style - where as Oh, Inverted World had that recognizable 60's pop aesthetic - this album is a bit cleaner sounding. Personally, I think I prefer the first album, though this album is great too - get them both! If you can, find the vinyl for this album - it's translucent red, really cool!"
+7446,2,Highly recommended reading for western buffs,"Gunfighter is the autobiography of famed western gunfighter John Wesley Hardin. It was 1868 when John killed his first man at the age of fifteen and became a wanted outlaw. He took up a life of cattle drover, gambler, and killer whose bloody trespass through Southern states after the end of the Civil War brought him into contact with Wild Bill Hickok, the Texas Rangers, an emerging Ku Klux Klan, lynch mobs, bounty hunters, and assassins. His journal/autobiography ends abruptly in 1889 and was first published in 1896, a year after his assassination and remains the only extent and authentic autobiography of a western gunfighter. Out of print for the last four decades, this new edition of a western classic is enhanced with an informative introduction by Mark Manning and highly recommended reading for western buffs and students of American frontier history."
+7447,2,"They are as it looks in the picture, the shoes are very nice","I received the shoes yesterday in excellent packing condition, they look strong with a soft rubber crepe sole. The shoes have a very nice sporty design and new are very soft to walk on. I just hope they do not detached from the sole as I had this experience with the last shoes I purchased of Clark, but I took them for repairing to the cobbler, and still use it. I hope these last longer in better condition. Also, I want to inform that as a women I wear 9.5 but Clark only have this design for men, I took a risk with size 8, and fitted perfectly.We suggest staff from Clark have more control over your quality and thus retain your customers."
+7448,1,Flimsy Handles,"Actually, judging by how many other reviews did not mention any mishap with the handles, I am tempted to think I was just unlucky and got a defective product. One of the handles popped out the first time I used it, and the screw holding it in was cross-threaded and couldn't be either unscrewed or tightened. Because one of the handles is now dangling, every time I close the crimper, the handle is pushing onto the thin metal sheet side and creates a dent which becomes larger with each use. Not to mention that pressing the crimper closed is now possible only by pressing my hand against the cutting back edge. I wish the manufacturer read these reviews and responded to this one with an offer for product replacement."
+7449,2,Relaxing Musical Score + Oldie Tunes!,"For those who read my review for the movie ""October Sky"", I want to say that the soundtrack is just as good...if not better. The score is beautifully crafted by Mark Isham and the oldies are just an added bonus. I really liked ""It's All in the Game"". I just wish the oldies were all together instead of scattered around. It's kinda hard to enjoy the score when the oldies music constantly interupts it.Overall, this is a wonderful score and I highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys classical music or the film ""October Sky""."
+7450,2,Surprised me!,"I recently finished this book as a book club selection. Not knowing exactly what to expect, I was quite surprised at how much I enjoyed this book. Discussing this book with friends, we all found some common ground and came to realize how strong the human spirit truly can be."
+7451,1,wrong!,This place will ship you something different from what the picture looks. I called they handled the return process ok. buyer beware!!
+7452,2,Slinging some Inspiration!,"I felt this movie really speaks to what many different people may be facing in their lives at different levels. It reveals twists that open up in two ways - to renewed opportunity and bigger challenges (Giants in this case!) to face. Albeit the Giants here are football ones, but still giant football teams are pretty scary, lol. Seriously though, this movie faces the viewer with both the fears of failure and of success in a more subtle way. It makes for great family and friends viewing.To me, it went a little deeper than their previous movie FlyWheel - also a favorite of mine - but didn't maintain quite the same element of simplicity. I like them both about equally."
+7453,2,All the Faces,The music on this cd says alot about what's going on in the world to day and it came out in the early 70's when music had meaning and told a story.
+7454,1,Difficult to follow,I know the story of the Donner Party and was very anxious to read this book. However it jumped around and was very difficult to follow. I still haven't finished it. I'll save it for whenever I have nothing else to read
+7455,2,Awesome!!,"This book presents an ideal that we can all strive for. There is a great deal of beauty in this book, and it has led me closer to God and what God's will is for me. It has also made me sad by knowing that I could never be as good as the characters in the book. This book gives me hope!"
+7456,1,Poor selection and horrible production values,"First, read the list of titles carefully. This compilation, with a few exceptions, really scrapes the bottom of the barrel. Even for those of us who enjoy the occasional home matinee populated by aliens with zippers in their skin and earthly heroes wearing plastic fishbowls on their heads may find that many of these films are just too cheesy to be tolerable.Annoyingly, the compilers have done--so far as I can tell--absolutely no clean up on either the visuals or the sound. As a result, some of the films are scratched, dirty, and difficult to understand.All in all, a disappointing collection. Dirt cheap, though. Caveat emptor."
+7457,2,Great cordless phone system,This is a great system for your home and only 1 phone jack is needed. I wish I had gotten the four phone system now. Great reception and easy to use.
+7458,2,Has its problems but great overall,"This is one of the best high-fantasy series I've come across so far. I finished reading this book several days ago and thought it really good. It's involving, thorough and overall, it's great! My only problems are Medea's pigheadedness and how she's really unreasonable in her thinking (but Stuart Hill may just be commenting on the average teenage mind) and how the Icemark's new allies are essentially copies of ancient African and Middle-East Kingdoms. A little more creativity, *please*.....This book is still worth a read, though. Odds are, you probably won't be disappointed."
+7459,1,"Not a word on C++, It shouldn't be named this way","I wasn't looking for a book on algorithms in C (I already have several of them), I was looking for C++ phylosophy and advantages applied to algorithms. It was very disapointing."
+7460,2,Not widely available in stores,"I purchased these online because I haven't been able to find the wide mouth version in my local stores. I have used the regular mouth version for a couple of years. My only criticism is that they can leak unless you place the canner lid inside as a seal. Otherwise, they do the job I needed them for which is capping open jars of veggies or jellies for refrigeration."
+7461,2,A little dissapointing!,"Well,I waited for this CD for months with great anticipation.Should'nt have gotten my hopes up! There are some great tracks here,don't get me wrong.(space manouevers is incredible)any crew?....negative!.But the other tracks are king of a let down.I found myself listening to Northern Exposure II again quite quickly.Oh well,i'm sure the more you listen..the better it get's..right?At least I hope so!!"
+7462,1,"A Poorly Written ""Introduction"" to Chinese and Japanese Civilization","This book was absolutely atrocious. It was poorly written and didn't touch on one idea long enough for the reader to get a clear idea of what the author was attempting to get across. I understand that it is a ""brief introduction"" but that is no reason to be sketchy and incomprehensible on the majority of the subject matter presented in the text. At certain points I had to re-read some paragraphs because I felt like they were written in Haiku or some form of code. From my viewpoint it was like the author was attempting to tackle to many subjects at once, and because of this, wasn't able to expand fully enough on any of them. I also agree with the previous comments, there were multiple grammar errors and spelling issues that shouldn't have been present in a 3rd edition."
+7463,2,Prince is STILL THE PRINCE!!!,"Has anyone linked the man, PRINCE, to the word, GENIUS?! I have listened to His Purpleness for years and I am still amazed at how adept he is at bringing something new and different from one disc to the next. As versatile a player as any before him and in a league all by himself among his contemporaries. This may not appeal to the average fan of Prince the pop artist, but for every fan of Prince the Musical Genius, this is GOLD!!!"
+7464,2,ok movie,This movie was an ok movie. You can tell its low budget but the principle of the movie was interesting.
+7465,2,good for the money,"I bought this set because of a review by a ""professional"" on the net at an electronics review source. I now have had the set 6months. It has performed in every way that is promised. I have a small office/guest space & so it is wall-mounted, which was easy to do. The only problem I had was matching the mfg. code to the required one from the sattelite box so I need 2 remotes. One for on/offand volume and the sattelite remote for the rest. Well worth the small price."
+7466,2,Fantabulous!,"texas has to be one of the bestest bands in the world. the first time i sampled it at the cd shop, i knew it was a fantastic album. it's been four months and i STILL love it. texas forever!"
+7467,2,Thanks amazon,"I really like using theBrother Black Toner Cartridge (TN-350) in my printer I know what to expect and the quality is certifiable, not so with the re-fills, plus there's seldom anyone to stand behind the re-filled product, but I hate the ordering process, creating an account with passwords, entering your address 2 or 3 times it's a hassle amazon de-hassled the ordering system with one click, plus I saved money and got the genuine cartridge. Thanks amazon."
+7468,2,perfect,"This product was introduced quickly after the airline scare banning many carryon items. I wonder if it was only a coincidence that Sonicare finally has a toothbrush that uses regular batteries. This powered brushing does a much better job on my teeth than I could do manually. However, I also own a Sonicare model with the dedicated/integral battery and I know from owning both that the battery operated is not as strong a brusher. After the batteries died, I switched back to the rechargeable sonicare. This one will go with me on trips because it still does a better job than I can manually."
+7469,2,Helps make sense of the nonsensical,"There's been many times in the last few months when I look at W's poll numbers and wonder what his supporters could possibly be thinking; this book crystallizes many of the hunches I've had. Yes, stupidity is part of it, but it's an aggrieved stupidity, and Frank neatly describes the nature of the plenty-plaints.The book is only superficially about Kansas. Frank uses it as an illustration for what has happened in many other parts of the country. Franks thesis is so clear and succinct that it feels as if a couple of the chapters could have been easily omitted without weakening the argument.I've been familiar with Frank's writing since his Baffler days. At his worst, he reads a little like Lewis Lapham's rant-by-the-numbers Notebook pieces. Unlike Lewis, he often hits the target spectacularly (""Alternative to What"", for example).This book is his best work to date."
+7470,1,Worked great (for about a month)!,"I perform CAD at least 8 hours a day and needed something to combat wrist pain. This was the solution for about a month. The resolution function is great, it's comfortable, etc. but I don't think it's built to last. My scroll wheel stopped working. The click function of it still works, but the scroll does not. I uninstalled/re-installed/updated the driver with no luck! I am VERY disappointed because it's expensive. I've contacted Evoluent tech support, so I'll see what happens next. Maybe it's just not built for the kind of 'abuse' I put it through..."
+7471,1,Strong Vinyl Smell,The product pictures do not show the LARGE plastic warning label that is sewn (can't rip off) on the blue flap. It smells very strong like vinyl plastic. Something that smells this BAD can't be good. Yikes! I used a Snuggle Nest with my first child and thought I could save a little $$ by getting this similar product for my second child. Bad idea.
+7472,1,Good News/Bad News is,"You don't have to buy the box set just to get the covers--but that's all they are, cover tunes. You can probably grab them off of Kazaa. The price isn't bad (cheaper on CD Universe though). He does choose some interesting songs to cover though."
+7473,1,worst kataklysm cd yet,"When i first got this cd i thought it was decent but then i soon realized that this is there worst cd yet. It doesn't hold a candle to any of there earlier stuff. The vocals are annoying, the guitar riffs which at one time were technically amazing and brutal have now been reduced to bland nu metal-esqe crap and the lyrics are the most mediocre and lame ones i've read, it sounds like they have been taking pages out of korns lyric book. Do yourself a favor and avoid this tasteless drivel buy masterpieces like Sorcery, Temple of knowledge, or mystical gate of reincarnation, those albums are classics!"
+7474,1,Not Stainless Steel more like stainless steal,I purchased this product about a year ago and it is completely rusted. Had I known this I would have purchased it at the Container Store. It does everything else it should except not rust. I don't even have it under the shower head I have it placed on the opposite side and it still rusted. What a waste of money.
+7475,2,Steven Raichlen Best of Barbecue Beer Can Chicken Roaster,"Bought it for all the Griller Guys, family and friends, as Christmas presents. All were quite pleased with the quality, versatility and ease of use of this product. The chicken comes off the grill looking like a Top Chef meal and the bird is juicy and moist."
+7476,2,The Two Sides of History,"McPherson has captured the feelings and stories of the men who fought in the Civil War. I have used this book for many years in College History classes both US I and my Topics in History Class-The Civil War. If one wants to understand the many reasons why the men volunteered to fight both North and South, this book is a ""must read"". My students who have read this book have come away with a completely different ideas of why these men ""got involved"". It is not just a book for the student or scholar, it is for anyone who wants to know the many varied reasons men left their hearth and home to fight and die for what they believed in. It is even more important now, that we are in the beginning of the 150th anniversay of the conflict."

+7479,1,weak rubber,The dinoasaur is soft and a great size. But the tail was cracked and bent in the packaage itself. If the material had been more durable I would have loved to keep it.
+7480,2,Decent but needs an extra description,"Gu is one of the best energy packs. It's tasty and it's well-designed for quick consumption (I find it less messy that Powerbar gels). This box of Gu is a great deal, how it would really help if it was mentioned in the description that over half of the packets are caffienated. I'm sure a lot of people would love the kick, but some people (like me) need to avoid caffiene due to preference or health conditions."
+7481,2,Monster movie with a message,"Ok, I thought 'Prophecy' was a decent 70's horror flick. The ecological twist in the movie is interesting and hey, I enjoyed watching the beautiful landscape of Maine. Yes, Robert Foxworth puts in an 'over the top' performance but this IS supposed to be a horror movie. He did a great job. Talia Shire played the part of the weak wife to a tee; she is Adrian afterall(need I say more?).Overall, the movie had a creepy vibe. The indians were creepy, thanks to a solid performance by Armand Assante. The maine guys were a**holes. The overall talk of mutant genetics or 'freakism' combined nicely with the moody rain scenes. 'Prophecy' is definitely not a crap fest. In fact, Id easily put the movie one step above all the crap and call it 'GREAT'.'Prophecy' delivers the goods for a 'popcorn' horror movie that just MAY make you think a little. Hmmmmmmmm."
+7482,1,Disappointment,"This book contains many errors, in text and tests. It does not help you in explaining how Oracle functions.The examples used in this book are too simple to be of any help.Without any experience in Oracle, passing the test with this book alone is very unlikely.I would recommend buying a different book! (if available)"

+7484,2,Liberalism: A Spiritual Cancer,"Most books on controversial subject matter embody a certain element of overkill to prove their point but Michael Rose is 'shockingly on the mark' with, Good Bye! Good Men. Many in Detroit have lived through what Mr Rose describes in his book. A close friend was subjected to professional psychological counseling for a year (at his own expense) and needed none. The final report read, This client did not need counseling and has no sign of pathology or abnormality. Basically, he was just too Catholic. The current sexual crisis in Holy Mother Church clearly shows what the Liberalism of 1960-1985 produced. This brand of mis-guided and unholy leadership never results in reform or progress. Through the concerted efforts of current Rector, Bishop Allen Vigneron, Sacred Heart Seminary is healing from what I call ""Metastatic Liberalism"" and today continues to heal and grow in Grace and in Favor with God and Man. Glory to God!.....a student"

+7486,1,"Wedgy factor, good tummy control","I've purchased many Spanx products which I can happily boast about yet I'm very disappointed with this product. I purchased it and wore it under a cotton sundress. As soon as I got out of my car, I felt an annoying wedgy. This went on all day long. Every bending movement I made provoked the panty to slip out of place and accumulate on my behind defeating its purpose.It was also very tight on the edges in my inner thigh which caused some irritation.It does have excellent tummy control and doesn't roll down on the waist but it was a little tight on the waistband which was evident over the dress.In my opinion, this product is surely not worth it."
+7487,2,Good read - though gratuitous in parts,"I enjoyed this book quite a bit, and would have given it 5 stars except I felt some of the story line was overly gratutious."
+7488,1,The Sea by John Banville,"The author is great at descriptive writing, but unfortunately the story and its progress are pedestrian and uninspiring. (= I hated it!)"
+7489,2,Great barrier,"Although I feel this item is entirely too much money, I needed it for our new puppy. We have an above average width to our kitchen entrance, so this being adjustable is great. It is nice quality and not an eye sore. I am very pleased with the product!"

+7493,2,Cute movie.,"The princess of a clan has to marry a prince from another clan. She doesn't want to so she tries to find a way to change her destiny. Unfortunately, it backfires on her in the worst way and puts her mother's life in danger. My teenage sons and I enjoyed it."
+7494,2,Great book to a Great Series...,"First off I gave this book a four because, in my opinion, it was not as good as Lord of the Rings which I proudly would rate a five. Writers mature, getting better in their writing style on their second/third book. Tolkien did a fabulous job on the Hobbit. Humor, confilct, but no romance. Good for children, good for just anyone. I thought Bilbo to be hilarous, the dwarfs just as funny. A true classic was the Hobbit that it will remain on my ""read again"" books forever, until I die of course. If you haven't read it yet I highly recommed for anyone who is looking for a good book to try this one out. I know others have said it, and I won't be the last but Tolkien was a master writer of our time!!"
+7495,2,Hop! Plop!,"What a fun book! Kids will learn about problem solving and working together (without even knowing it). The onomatopoeias (if that's how you spell and pluralize it) and the pictures make the book amusing and enjoyable. After reading it, my 4 years old and 2 year old (and I) were sliding down our own elephant trunks.I highly recommend it."
+7496,1,Wow. This is terrible.,"I didn't know whether to laugh or cry when our ""hero,"" the man who is supposed to train the heroine and help her defend herself against her abusive husband, exhibited all the signs of an abusive man.Note to author: It isn't sexy or romantic or exciting when a man constantly and aggressively presses himself against a woman. It isn't believable that a woman who had suffered constant and horrifying abuse at the hands of her husband would return a forced kiss. The way the initial scenes between these two characters were written was positively vomit-inducing. Lazy writing, straight from the handbook of the bodice-rippers, but with an extra dose of violence.Rape culture, in a nutshell. What a piece of crap."
+7497,1,"TOM BERENGER, WHAT WERE YOU THINKING ???","I purchased this video because i am a big fan of both Stephen Lang and Tom Berenger, both very interesting and creative actors...but to my horror, this is the worst piece of trash i have ever seen...and Berenger is not only the star, but the executive producer of this horror ! It is below the level of an Ed Wood film.....Stephen Lang is supposed to be a respected, world-renowned college professor, but he acts like a crazed porno star, and speaks with a "" trailor-park-trash "" accent.....i first saw this actor playing Hamlet in a Broadway production...boy, is his classical training going to waste here, I can only assume he was desparate for money....i can't come up with an excuse for Berenger."
+7498,1,Innocent and Despairing,"OK, so the music teacher didn't really know what he was supposed to be teaching, the kids just sang what they wanted, a few instruments were provided, the recording facilities were rudimentary and...BIG HIT, GREAT SENSATION etc. etc. I got the album for Christmas and knew nothing about this supposed phenomenon as I live on another continent. Reading the blurbs, I got quite enthusiastic but listening was another story. Not exactly recommended music to digest your Christmas dinner! My son pleaded with me to turn it off, the dog left the room and I was left wincing. They call this ""outsider music"" because if you play it inside you do so at your own risk. Just because it's old doesn't mean it's good. And, it's not particularly old, either. It's pretty awful."
+7499,2,Cute Movie,"My daughter loves this movie. She just turned 4. We watched it 6 times in one day once; not that I had objections, it kept her busy while I cleaned house and did laundry. It has a good story line and it isn't boring. The little hamster guy is a ninja =-D"

+7501,2,I love my TV!,"I would not hesitate to recommend this TV to anyone. I searched around for a quite a while at different retailers. Then I found this one on Amazon. I found an excellent TV for hundreds less than the retail stores were selling it for. Sure it isn't a 1080p native res. but I also didn't spend an extra $800 for one that was. When 1080p broadcasting is widely available where I live, then I will upgrade. As for now, I am enjoying my movie collection all over again. Not to mention the HDTV channels. Great TV for the money!Some of the reviewers here are bashing Amazon and Eagle transit for their service. I was highly impressed by both. The two week delivery estimate arrived in 6 days and that was with free shipping. No damage to the box and the delivery guy helped me bring it into the house and offered to help set it up.If you are looking for a 56"" DLP projection TV and aren't looking to break the bank then it doesn't get much better than this."

+7503,1,Made the signal WORSE!,"I returned this item, because it actually made my signal worse on the channels I could receive with it. And it also reduced the number of channels available."
+7504,2,Good protective case,This case fits the Nuvi 660 very snugly. It serves its purpose well in that it helps to protect the screen when the unit is not in use. One potential problem is that some screen protectors will come off when putting the GPS in the case because the fit is so snug.
+7505,1,DO NOT BUY THIS BLENDER!,"I bought this blender because i wanted a powerful blender, but did not want to invest $600 in a Vitamix. I had read product reviews praising this blender. I should have listened to the one review that said not to purchase it, because the motor blew just outside the warranty period..Just outside my warranty period the lid assembly had to be replaced. Now, within 2 years of purchase the entire canister and blade assembly has to be replaced at a cost of $36.00, which i refuse to pay. The gears or bearings under the blade assembly disintegrated.This blender was very inconvenient to use. The lid assembly leaked while blending and the rubber gasket around the lid had to be removed each time to be cleaned and realigned back on...a real pain. Also, the blender is extremely loud. Earplugs anyone?The Oster blender i had previously to this one lasted over 10 years.Juiceman products are manufactured in ""Phibber Magee's Land of Crapola"". DO NOT BUY THIS BLENDER."
+7506,1,"Such a hassle, didn't work.","Sometimes these cheap iphone accessories work and other times it seems you get what you pay for. For this particular product it's the latter. It worked sometimes, most of the times I'd get a message saying that your phone isn't compatible with the charger. Until I unplugged it and plugged it back in 25 times in order for it to work, only to walk back to it to see the same error message. The retractable part worked and saved space, but not really worth it when it doesn't charge your phone. I usually don't write reviews on Amazon, but this product is a piece of junk."

+7508,1,Stupid and boring,I know this is supposed to be a comedy of some kind but I found it stupid boring and offensive. Why don't you ask the millions of people murdered at the death camps if they think it is funny?
+7509,2,"A practical and compassionate ""must read"" book.","I have spoken with many family members of homosexuals, and regardless of how accepting, loving, or even liberal they may be, the initial announcement, ""I'm gay"" is one that can knock you to your knees. I have also heard Anita Worthen speak several times, and her deep love and compassion for her son and for homosexuals in general is so evident. From her heart she writes this practical and compassionate book that is a ""must"" for any parent reeling from the news that their son or daughter is gay. Discovering this book is often the very first time that a parent or a family member discovers that they are not alone, that others have been there too, and that what they are feeling is normal. Especially helpful are the chapters on the grief cycle-adapted for the family member, and on how to relinquish your loved one and ""let go."""
+7510,1,A Mangled Mess,"As an Austen purist, this movie actually made me angry. It is an odd, loose mixture of Mansfield Park and Austen's own biography with some very disturbing imagery thrown in. I found the director's style to be unnerving with Fanny constantly making eye contact with the camera and several quite vulgar sexual references and images. It was Austen in the gutter, in my opinion. I truly hated this movie. I teach high school English, and I give the students the option to watch films like this as an assignment, and the only ones who ever watched this version said it left them confused and vaguely disgusted. Don't waste your money."
+7511,1,Laughable singing,"The singing on this cd is often unintentionally ludicrous. Russell Watson doesn't have the voice for much of the songs here, and his clumsy delivery creates a lot of vocal howlers.A record only for those who have the humor to laugh at bad singing."
+7512,1,Marius? A child molester?,"Out of all the characters in the vampire chronicles, Armand was a mystery while Marius, next to Lestat, was one I most loved and admired. This book, while uncovering most of Armand's secrets and hidden past, has somehow made me lose interest in both of these characters. Although it had a few unexpected twists,(one which involves the night that Claudia died) it was mainly weak and without much content. Anne Rice has really done it this time. Not only did she reduce Marius to a mere pedophile, but she turned Armand into(before he was captured by the coven) an ungrateful brat. He (Armand) shows no strength of character or independent thinking whatsoever, only slaving for one master after another. I was also disgusted by the crudity and rawness that was displayed in this book. Maybe it was my misconception of perceiving Marius and Armand purely as father and son. Either way, I did not expect what this book was about to offer."
+7513,2,I'm in love with Charles....,"I don't think I have ever encountered a novel with as sympathetic a secondary character as Charles. You could see why she loved him and why it was so hard to hurt him.....he had loved her his whole life. Hats off to LS for not following with convention and making him an evil character.Did anyone else feel like the ending was written with a sequel in mind? How great would that have been.....Charles comes back years later, sill in love with Emily and the fur flies. Squeeeee!"
+7514,2,"Winning by Losing, A No Nonsense Guide",I liked the book Winning by Losing because it was very straight forward and down to earth. Ms.Michaels tells it like it is and assists the reader in their journey towards weight loss.
+7515,2,Audio CD read by Suzanne Toren,I was enchanted by this audio book. Suzanne Toren did a wonderful job narrating the story. I haven't read any of Kristin Hannah's books and I didn't expect much from the story line after having read the brief summary on amazon.com. I bought the audio version because I enjoy audio books narrated by Suzanne Toren and her voice surely lends a magical touch to this audio book.
+7516,1,I can do better with a brush and my eyes closed,"Poor coverage, drips, runs, leaks, and parts dont fit together. The first on I got the O ring was mangled and had to be returned. I ended up sanding the drips, and redoing the entire area with tape and a brush (my free hand is poor). YMMV."
+7517,1,"Wires, what wires?","I bought this book expecting to have everything explained, in a simple manner. This was true until it came time to wire together the parts. If you ask me, the hardest part of building a computer is the wiring, it's pretty complicated. This book tells you how to install the parts themselves sans the wires. I had to figure out all of the wires on my own: the book told me how to install only about 2 of the wires. I ended up mostly using the instruction booklets that came with the parts. I ended up even having to call tech support!!! After the wiring was set up it came time to install the OS which believe it or not the book has no instructions on. If you are looking for a book to help you build a computer don't get this one!!!"
+7518,2,What A Great Album!,"Carlos Santana is back, and is here with some friends as well. ""Supernatural"" shows that Santana has truly survived the test of time. Carlos is ""bad,"" man. From the slow ""Love of My Life,"" featuring Dave Matthews, to the spectacular guitar acrobatics of ""The Calling,"" with Santana and Eric Clapton both showing how well they manipulate their instrument, this new album is a joy to listen to. ""Supernatural"" also has other big names like Lauryn Hill, who raps in the song ""Do You Like the Way,"" and Rob Thomas of Matchbox 20, who sings in the toe-tapper ""Smooth."" Eagle-Eye Cherry is also on the album, along with alterna-rapper Everlast. Although these songs are not as memorable as the classics ""Oye Como Va"" and ""Black Magic Woman,"" I enjoy them just as much or better than some of the other stuff we here today. . ."
+7519,1,Can't play cd-r's,If you want to play your own cd's (cd-r's) look for another brand that can. Technics tech support says that NONE of their units are designed to play cd-r's
+7520,2,Great fun with just a few problems,"This game is a lot of fun, challenging but not overly difficult like some games, and has a whole lot of different, varied levels to keep the experience exciting. Only a few of the levels are actually in the Castle, and that's probably good because it would get boring quickly if they all were set there. I'm not sure I like the first person perspective though. It works fine, and you get used to it, but it really made me quite dizzy after playing for a while due to the close up perspective and the heightened sense of movement that it results in. Also there are some really unbelievable glitches. I recall one where there is an enemy soldier on the other side of a window looking right out at you as you stand right in front of him, and he doesn't see you. (And no, it's NOT a one way window!) But I'm really enjoying the game nevertheless."
+7521,2,Great CD,After seeing the movie I was exited to by the soundtrack. But I was worried because on most soundtracks for movies there's a lot of added tracks that really aren't in the movie. But that didn't happen in this CD all of the songs are from the movie. Even The fairy godmother's song is on the CD.
+7522,2,hilarious cd,"this album is tight. the members ar proof,kuniva,swifty,eminem,kon artist,and bizarre. this album has funny lyrics,good beats,and great rappers. d12 targets britney spears,n'sync,backstreet boys,everlast,dj lethal,fred durst,and christina aguilera. this is a great rap album and if you like eminem pick this up."
+7523,1,Not effective,"I placed the worms as directed, even cut some in thirds as another reviewer suggested. I thought it worked, for about 2 days, no new mole activity. They are back and digging up other areas of my garden,It's caving in. I dont dare collaspse the tunnels, as they tunnel in other areas, killing more plants! I tried a 2nd dose and the same thing. As I understand, moles move every couple of days, using different runs, so you think you killed them, then they come back. Next, I'll try the traps."
+7524,2,Quality Green,Overall its good quality green tea for the fantastically low price.Id purchase this rather than paying for overly high priced so-called other premium green tea!
+7525,2,Great series! Recommend to everyone!!!,"When I saw this, all I could say to myself was. ""Cool!"" Of course, I already have this on LD but had to complement my collection with the DVD.All in all great, esp. that it comes with the Encyclopedia, which is a need item."
+7526,1,Nothing but problems,I have had nothing but poor printing with cartridges from 4inkjets. I have two printers (Epson and Canon) and I must always clean the heads and the printers are almost never reading to print in good color when I call on them. I have used cartridges from 4inkjets on both and attribute the poor performance to poor quality ink cartridges.
+7527,2,Expectations Exceeded,"I researched 26"" LCD HDTVs extensively. I wanted an excellent picture, DVD, VCR and computer hook ups. Consumers Report gave the 2006 model of this TV it's highest rating. HLMI connections are essential for the very best HD. Other connections include S, PC, and Component. This HDTV has it all plus a detailed easy to follow manual.I have Direct TV satellite service and use thier remote to control the set. I am familiar with it and channel numbers stayed the same.One minor negative the HLMI and PC connection faces down so you have to tilt the set to plug in.I was surprised that regular TV programing is excellent."
+7528,1,Booger sure can pick em',"Its not surprising that a movie that is filled with fart jokes and booger talk would appeal to a guy named Booger. This movie will be highly enjoyed by anyone with an IQ that equates to the number of states that seceded from the Union. I can just see Booger now, watching this on his out of date VCR in his mommy's basement, Confederate flag on the wall, stacks of Swank and Hustler littering the floor..."
+7529,2,PATRICK SWAYZE,This is an earlier movie and onethat I like very much. Amreplacing my Swayze vhs tapeswith dvd's.
+7530,2,Best disc I've bought in the last ten years..,"Style, sophistication, versatility, etc. Genius sums it up. Only Stevie could deliver a masterpiece like this. It is in my opinion that some of these tunes are the best he's ever assembled. As a drummer myself, it's great to hear both Lawson's and especially Narada on track 11 (which is my favorite). This album dragged me out of lurk mode and signed me up for my first review (which this is). Buy it fast. Standouts for me include tracks 2, 3, 5, 7, 10, 11, 12, 13. I hope to meet him one day to tell him my thoughts on this album. Can't wait to hear these songs live!"
+7531,1,Best Data 56K USB Modem Macintosh,As other reveiwers noted this modem cannot stay connected. You can reestablish connection by unplugging and plugging the USB but this is a pain. Instructions that come with modem are incomplete and do not give information about lights. Also Best Data tech support does not respond. There are bound to be better choices.
+7532,2,I agree with Be Forewarned,"I too have purchased this exact same statue within the last 30 days from this dealer, but thru its own site, not Amazon. I also paid $9 shipping for this lightweight resin item, but it was on sale there for $6.95, my total cost $15.95. They can't seen to decide on a fair price for it. You decide. Otherwise, a fast shipper and the item has a pretty, serene expression."
+7533,2,Check the date this book was published.,"For the people who are reviewing this book and giving it a one because they feel sorry for Rush and his drug addiction, please check the date of publication.Franken knew Rush was a big, fat, idiot before his drug addiction became public. I read it and ""Lies and the Lying Liars who Tell Them"", and found both funny and entertaining. ""Lies"" has more factual info but I enjoyed them both. If you don't like liberals you shouldn't read these books. I don't listen to Rush unless I'm with some one else who is and I can't escape. He drives me crazy. I feel sorry for him that he is an addict but what makes him better or more treatable than all the other addicts he has been advocating throwing in jail?His money? His color? Rush is a big fat idiot who got his servant to commit illegal acts to feed his addiction. I hope he learns something about being human."
+7534,2,Tale Of The Body Thief,"Book arrived in excellent condition. It arrived on time. It is an excellent read, keeps you on the edge of your seat."
+7535,1,Petmate Bat N Bobble Interactive Cat Toy,"Well, at least my cat doesn't seem to like this toy, Never ever was interested to play with it... there are some other better toys I think."
+7536,1,Not what I ordered,"This is not Civilization Call to Power. This is CTP II. I wanted CTP (original) because is allowed you to operate in space and build flying storm troopers. This version has done away with those types of advances. I was very disappointed because I had search long and hard for a vender that was selling the original CTP. This vendor claimed to, and the picture shows the original, but the original is not what I received!!!"
+7537,1,Fail,"I was unable to get this generator started after following very poorly written directions. I followed the steps exactly and still, no sign of life. This led to me trashing everything in my freezer/fridge, which is why I bought this generator in the first place. I found it extremely difficult to pull the starter chord. Put fresh gas and oil in the machine and checked all other levers/switches, including choke.In short, I did everything correctly to the book and yet I did not get so much as a cough out of it. Also, as a rather fit man, I could physically barely pull the starter chord. Totally unacceptable and it failed me when I needed it during last night's power outage....If I could meet a representative from this company in person I would love to share my thoughts with them and tell them how awesome it was to throw away a month's worth of frozen breast milk for my newborn....that made my wife extremely happy as I'm sure you can guess."
+7538,2,Love this!,Love this movie! The DVD came within a few days of ordering- which was awesome! This was definitely a great buy!
+7539,2,waiting for blue ray,"So far this was the best gundam out, the story tackles the same issue about war and peace but in a less childish way and very advanced motionJust need it on BLUE RAY so i could buy the whole series"
+7540,2,Custer's Fall: the Native American Side of the Story,"Almost a lifetime's work went into this book. It is always fascinating to read the other side of a story. It is easy to read and very moving. As Custer and all his men died, these are the actual witnesses to what took place. It follows the battle throughout the day, from sun-up to sun-down, the aftermath and the legend. A must-read for anyone interested in the Battle of the Little Bighorn."
+7541,1,Doesn't work consistently-BIG disappointment,"We purchased this for our 6 year old daughter. She loved using it at first, but it gave the wrong answer at least half of the time. If the pen doesn't hit the EXACT center of the correct answer bubble, it says that it's wrong. What young child is going to use this with such precision? They're not, so it's going to be frustrating and not fun at all. Great idea for a product, but it just doesn't work. Big disappointment. Going to stick with good old flashcards, I guess."
+7542,2,Wonderful product,"The projector has many great features which makes your presentation professional.What is also great is that it comes with a bag and a remote control, making it easier to move and control."
+7543,2,Father's Day humidor,Very nice humidor! It was exactly what I expected and what was pictured. I'm looking forward to giving it to my dad on Father's Day.
+7544,1,Doesn't work at high volume.,"After finding impressive online reviews, I bought my Logi...Z-3i speakers almost a month back. However, I paid only 30 dollars, I am completely dissatisfied by the fact that break down at max volume. Soon, they will be dispatched back to Amazon. However, I am not sure whether its only me who received this defective unit or is it a widespread defect. I used them with my Dell laptop and checked all the connections, wires, and my laptop but the problem seems to reside with the speakers. So be careful!!"
+7545,1,Unrealistic ending,"The worst part about this book other than the insane family is the unrealistic ending. When a person commits a crime, no matter how severe, they still end up going to jail in handcuffs. A girl can say that she doesn't want her boyfriend to be handcuffed and it doesn't make a difference to the cop that is arresting the person. In the book, after Emma almost kills Anne and breaks two of Anne's fingers, Emma's brother Mark requests that the policeman not handcuff Emma on the way to jail. The policeman surprisingly agrees and takes her to jail in the back of the police car without handcuffing her. This obviously wouldn't happen because Emma is insane. Overall, I did like Anne and she was very considerate of Madeline's feelings towards Mark."
+7546,1,my oh my...,"Although this is a stunning film with great stunts (seeing the wires once in a while doesn't really spoil anything), I have to admit that I was fairly annoyed with the american-voice dubbing.It makes the characters sound stupid (no offence meant) and out of place. I guess they needed to dub the film for illiterate people but a choice would have been nice. And why call it Twin Warriors? it is misleading and incorrect. I'd rather have the cantonese version without subtitles (although I couldn't understand it) than this pitiful american dubbing version. Look for The Tai Chi Master rather; as it has been said before, it is well worth it."
+7547,2,Great TV to watch,"The first thing we need to do is setting DVD player to Progressive scan mode and the second thing is to upgrade cable or satellite TV to HD receiver. Then watching TV is just mind blowing, and I would not even think of going to a theater."
+7548,2,It WORKS,"I tried this years ago with outstanding results for my rheumatoid arthritis!!Then after 3 months I gradually went back to my usual diet and the pain gradually increased!Recently I've had so much more pain and flares of inflamation that I knew I needed to do SOMETHING! I began eating only whole, raw foods and grains again. Even without doing the fasting and cleansing step due to my schedule I had wonderful resolution of the pain!Before I totally committed with the fast and cleansing I wanted to indulge in one last pizza! After eating it for the evening meal and for breakfast the next morning I developed pain in my fingers, wrists, and elbows!!! I didn't realize how good I felt until I began having the pains I got rid of when eating right for just 10 days!!!Since I've gone back to the dietary guidelines and avoided the stressor foods, I am nearly pain free again!!It WORKS!!"
+7549,1,Terrible!!!!!!,We bought this toy for Christmas and we are very disappointed.Only my husband can pull the string so the girl will fly and when he does it the doll goes right in his or my daughter's eyes witch is so painful. Dangerous toy !!!!
+7550,2,Interesting,"It is interesting to note that The Flower of Life (Vol 1) has stimulated a huge disparity in terms of readers' judgements of its validity and usefulness. I agree with the nay-sayers who state that most (if not all) of the information contained in this book cannot be verified by standard reference methodologies. To be fair to Drunvalo, he does recommend discarding any information presented that does not feel comfortable intuitively. Some readers apparently feel that this applies to most of the material presented. He does not profess to be a 'scientist' and in fact stated his rejection of that form of informational hierarchy. His writing style is thus easy to read, as if you are talking with a friend. There is a huge amount of information presented in this book, and it remains to be seen if it really 'true' or not! Still worth a read in my opinion. I have not read Volume II but will take a look at it when it becomes available."
+7551,2,Pet Steps,We needed steps to help our doxie get on the bed. We had to lay a bath sheet over the steps as she found then to slick and was scared to use them also if she jumps to hard on them from the bed it will scoot away and she can't get back on the bed.With some simple modifacations we have made it perfect.
+7552,1,fun while it lasted,"it was fun for about a month, but then the wheels were falling off and the steering wheel broke and couldn't be fixed. i wouldnt pay more than $30 for it."
+7553,2,Shania Twain is my favorite artist!,"In my opinon Shania Twain is the best artist.The songs on come on over are truley unique,and one of a kind.I also like how she relates her music to everyday life."
+7554,2,It's Eddie,"What can I say, it's Eddie Izzard. I still like Dress to Kill much, much better. But it's still ""Eddie"" funny and you can't beat that with a stick !!!"
+7555,2,Monster Squad,"I love this movie!It's not what you would call a blockbuster movie by Hollywood standards but it is in my book.It is the ultimate monster movie!To begin with it has all the major monsters that people know .Dracula,Wolfman,Frankenstein, the mummy, The creature from the black lagoon,and the three sisters.Then there is Van Helsing the monster hunter.How cool is that to have them all in one movie! The meat and potatos of the movie revolve around how the modern day monster hunters (a.k.a. Monster Squad) can use their knowledge of monsters to defeat Dracula's evil plan.It is so fun to watch the teens making silver bullets during shop class,using pizza(it has garlic in it)to escape Dracula's clutches ,and finding a pure soul(virgin) to read a magical incantation from an ancient book.The ending is awesome!!!Watching this movie makes me feel like a kid again.The movie is just plain fun to watch!!!This movie captures that childish fantasy of youth to be a hero."
+7556,1,Not Interesting,This pamphlet was not what I expected. (It is maybe 40 pages) It is all true/false questions. It is not motivating or challenging. It was not what I expected.
+7557,1,This book is one huge resume,"I wish I would have read the reviews before buying this book. At least I got it used. This book is almost devoid of actual tutorials and hands-on learning. The first few chapters have some instruction, but the majority of the book reads like a compilation of resumes with stunning imagery. There are lots of pictures and in-depth biographies of industry professionals with very little tips on how to create the images included. If you are a new user looking to expand your skills this is not the book for you. If you are an industry professional looking to hire a skilled artist, this may be what you're looking for. I regret buying this book."
+7558,1,Broke within 2 months,I would have to agree with the previous reviewer that said the stroller is not very sturdy. The same thing happened to my 2 year olds stroller. Within 2 months the back had broken out and it is stuck in the fully reclined position. It is very frustrating to my daughter who rarely plays with it now because the dolls keep falling out. Otherwise it was a great toy.
+7559,1,you've got to be kidding me,"i recently heard her for the first time on the radio - her ""hit single"" is nothing but a computer-generated piece of garbage. it's not even her singing!! i just don't understand how anyone can see this as a great piece of musical work. i think it's a hoax and a sorry shame that albums such as this get so much exposure, when truly talented artists (who can write more profound lyrics than those about lovin', lyin' cheatin', foolin' etc.) cannot get any airplay. if you're a pop culture junkie, then i guess this album is for you: it's a piece of junk."
+7560,1,"A Waste of Time, Even If You're Killing Time on the Beach","This supposedly ""acclaimed"" author has written a book that is not just bad, but bafflingly bad. Not only is this not quality literature, it is not even quality trash. The book includes all the ingredients of a sexy page turner (like a mother who is pursued by the same man who seduces two of her daughters) but it is presented in such a bland way without the minimal character development that might make it believable, that it comes off about as exciting as watching paint dry. Other scenes of hip young women snorting coke are described by an out-of-touch author who is trying to sound current but clearly doesn't know what she is talking about. Seems she did her research from the pages of another trashy novel (no doubt a better one). Don't be fooled by the jacket description. This book is in no way ""hauntingly sensitive."""
+7561,2,mixer cover,This product was exactly the right size and was received in a prompt manner. It was just as it was protrayed in the add. I am very pleased with the company and the product.
+7562,2,Ted Broer's MAXIMUM ENERGY.,"13, Feb 2000 As a recent graduate of Washington County Technical College in Calais, Maine in the Dietary Management Program. Mr. Broer has shown me more than I could have ever learned at school. I am a diabetic and I did drink a lot of (Diet Soda And ate a lot of pork also)If you like icecream do not buy the cheap kinds because all they are is poisonious chemicals. But after reading the book MAXMIUM ENERGY I have stop drinking diet soda. My wife and I are changing the way we eat and what we feed our children. We will not eat (shellfih or lobsters & crabs)any more after what we learned from the book. I Recommend this book to every one I know . If I had the money I would buy it for everyone that I do know. This BOOK is better than five stars,it should be given 5,000+ STARS.Oscar ToceFood Service Director"
+7563,2,Praise for the Plains of Passage,"I have enjoied all four of the Earth's Children Series, and while The Plains of Passage at times laged a bit, the characters I have come to love are at it again! Auel has done an excelent job of describing the scenes and creating intrigue..."
+7564,1,It was too much ALL THAT,"The story started out okay; mind you not great, just okay, and then it went downhill. After a while it was all too confusing and too mundane -- almost silly at times. My suggestion is that you borrow this book from the library. That way you won't feel guilty about wasting money on a book you'll never read again or recommend to anyone else either."
+7565,2,Wild ride.,"Dirty Harry is the ultimate guy flick but as a woman in her mid-twenties -I have to say this movie rocks! Clint Eastwood is awesome in this crime drama, the dude who plays the killer is one horrific actor but otherwise than that Dirty Harry is pure fun. Buy it now!"
+7566,2,Counter-Strike Era,"Ok, I've been with Counter-Strike the generation since it first hit stores and became retail a few years back. Ever since I have been playing the game mostly through my week and my growing life. I stopped playing it last week because of all the new Sierra HL series coming out. I recommend this game, You will get allot of action the only problem with the original CS is that allot of hackers are around now and will totally get on your nerves if you dont get on the right servers so make sure you enter a VAC server or a CAL.CFG server for better results while trying to go into and server and get away from those hackers 3-4 years of playing Counter-Strike and finally a newer version i can't wait !!!"
+7567,2,No Brainer Best Collection,This collection of Diana Ross & the Supremes hits is really the true ultimate collection. The big hits are featured here. All of them. The inclusion of the Temptations collaboration completes it. I pick this CD when I want the best of Ross. It was never the same after these years.
+7568,1,The original is better...,I liked the original better. David Cronenberg's Crash was far superior to this. Paul Haggis ended up ditching the original storyline and made this film about race relations! WTF??? I was so disappointed...
+7569,2,Fantastic Bread Machine,"We are thrilled with the performance of this little bread machine. We just follow the instructions and have gotten excellent results on all five of the recipes we have tried. We choose the light crust setting, and the crust is very soft. We would recommend this product to anyone."
+7570,2,Check this game out,"If you have a social life (eg. girlfriend) I advise you to stay clear of this game. But if your parents and you want to keep your kids inside and out of trouble get them this...they wont leave the house, I know I dont go out as much. When you first start playing Everquest you think ^why did I buy this, its the dumbest game in the world^ but when you get further along, increasing stats ect you will undoubtably get hooked, jock or not.... Another good point about this game is that you get practically 0 lag no matter what your connection, and they keep adding expansions to it."
+7571,1,Boring,"Mimi Fox is an excellent guitarist, but like many newer jazz artists, lacks a unique sound and good artistic feel and emotion. Part of the problem is that this CD is all over the place stylistically, which really bothers me a lot. It's impossible to get any sort of groove going. The second reviewer also correctly pointed out that Mimi tends to repeat many licks over and over."
+7572,1,doesn't work,I did not even complete the job of trimming my lawn when the weed eater quit working. I was not able to restart it because the pull cord became lock in place. Rendering itself non-usable.
+7573,2,Fantastic---and enjoyably LONG---DVD; well worth your time & $,"As a huge Deep Purple fanatic, I highly recommend this amazingly well done DVD on the legendary MK II vocalist Ian Gillan, as it is also a very accomplished biography of the band Deep Purple, as well. While there IS a small part of me that would like to deduct a tad for the overwhelming Morse-era video footage (""the best Deep Purple cover band ever""-I digress, but why were Deep Purple so up in arms about the Rod Evans debacle in 1980? After all, in both instances [the band today and then], there was only one original member present: Evans and Ian Paice), you just cannot: it is so entertaining and well done. In fact, I hated to see it end...and it is over 6 hours long (the main feature is 2 and a half hours)! Get this one asap."
+7574,2,The best Bare Naked cd of them all,"The cd shows a wide range of the band's musical talents. One Week is a great song to listen to over and over. Some Fantastic resembles Million Dollars with its clever lyrics and by the way Ed and Steve play off of each other. Other songs like I'll Be That Girl, Alcohol, and In the Car are easy to sing along with. Never is Enough may be the best song on the album because of the pure happiness it exhibits and the easy going rhythm of the song. This edges out over Gordon and Rock Spectacle as the best cd they have put out."
+7575,2,3D draws you in,"watched on Vudu in 3D and thoroughly enjoyed the adventure. In 2D it would have been a let down, but 3D draws you in. Who says good 3D doesnt help a so-so 2D movie ?"
+7576,1,Not particularly helpful,"I am an attorney who regularly handles leases for a large company. I had hoped that this book would be a practical guide to negotiating commercial real estate leases, but it seemed more like a theoretical tract than a useful tool in my practice."
+7577,1,Weems & Plath stuff stinks!!!... On a good day,I have owned 5 Weems & Plath products and every one had a working problem. Don't wast Youre money! This one did not work at all.
+7578,2,One of the best movie's I've seen.,"Just watched this tonight with my wife. We were both enthralled throughout. It also has a moral point, though the main character is completely immoral. I would recommend this movie to anyone who likes a good adventure, crime, love-gone-wrong, or just about any other type of movie. Get it, you won't regret it."
+7579,1,Get a backup plan if you buy this,"I'm a *picky* coffee person, who went on a budget and found I needed to trim some of the $60 a month I was spending on coffee at Peet's & Ritual & Coffee to the People.I owned this for less than six months when the power switch broke. It made ok coffee while it worked. The cup it comes with is really nice. I use that cup with my AeroPress, which makes outstanding coffee."
+7580,2,Beautiful; I recommend it,"I was interested to see that the NY TIMES reviewer used the word ""lyrical"" to describe this book because that is the word that occurred to me when I finished it--and I'm not even certain what it means or why I thought of it! I only know that I started reading on Sunday afternoon and didn't stop until I was finished at bedtime. I thought it was a beautifully told tale, and I loved that the story of the actual flood was told so minimally. I found myself totally drawn into the various characters' stories while dreading what I assumed their fates would be. I cannot recommend this book highly enough."
+7581,1,"C'MON DOC WHERE TALKING CLINICAL DEATH, HERE.","As a former Paramedic I take a skeptic's view when reading about so called near death experiences or ""nde's"". The author, a cardiologist, should realize that nde's are just that. Just because your heart stops beating and you cease to breath you are not really dead, yet! That is called clinical death....real or bioligical death is several minutes away. Biological or brain death occurs as the neurons in the brain begin to die from hypoxia or lack of oxygen. This book is biased...fails to mention the diffrence between clinical and actual death."
+7582,1,This book could be better organised.,"This book could do with better organisation. Same topics should be grouped together instead of mentioning them at different chapters. I also expected to see more information and suggestions on where to go. ""The Gap Year Book, 2Ed"" also published by Lonely Planet is a much better written book. You may be wiser to wait for the second edition."
+7583,1,Clashes with other books!!!!!,"I will not waste a lot more time on this book. It was extremely disappointing. This book contradicts many ""facts"" from other books in the series. The book is also laced with poorly thought out comments by the author (Polgera, herself). If you felt that the series was sexist and in desperate need of having the male characters made fools of, then this book is for you. If you enjoyed the other ten (eleven or twelve now) then leave this one alone."
+7584,2,Great Camera,The wide angle feature on this camera and the Image Stabilisation is worth the money. You lose a little at the high end zoom but for hiking in the outdoors it is perfect. We just did a tour of Crater Lake and Yosemite and this camera captured it all.
+7585,2,Smitty has a way with words...,"Wilbur Smith (no relation) has over 20 African shotemups, all great. You have to be to sell 65 million copies. The River God is my favorate. I read it at the same time that I read Ramses by Jacq, I got dizzy a lot. River God is the best, what I call a good meaty book. Tanus is our hero who tries to bring the two parts of Egypt together. Up and Down Ha-Ka-Ptah goes our hero, with foxy Lady Lostris and the know it all slave (you get to the point where you just want to smack him, Taita). What a great ending, which I'll not tell, Amazon has a copy of this if you just have to know. I will tell you, it sets up the stage for the next book called Seventh Scroll. There's a lot of bang-bang shotemup, ancient Egypt style, with a lot of main players doing a stage left. But good ol Wilbur leaves enough on their feet to finish the book. Don't tell Amazon what is on page 79 or they will pull the book..you know how they are. Thats your Smitty review for today...30."
+7586,2,Live up to their reputation,"Great hinges. I bought a bunch, and they shipped in bulk pack - which was great because I didn't have a bunch of extra packaging to mess around with. Included mounting instructions and all hardware. Really a great product."
+7587,1,Crushes Hopes of Learning Japanese,"I made the mistake of asking someone to buy this software as a gift, since I really wanted to start learning Japanese. Nothing but problems. First, it seems more advanced, but that's not it. It may seem advanced but it's really only poorly designed and does not function properly.As someone has already mentioned, the lessons don't work when you click on them. Also, there is no sense involved with the usability. Zero stars for ease of use.Instant Immersion Japanese Deluxe probably crushed my hopes of trying to learn Japanese. Stay away from this product at all costs, it is enirely misleading. I suggest you check around Amazon for books/software that really do help you, as I'll be doing the same."
+7588,2,A Russian Masterpiece!,"Like many things Russian, this book is misunderstood and under-appreciated! As the Russians build fine firearms, so then they produced fine Olympic Target Shooters. This book shows you why the Russians dominated the sport at many levels for many years. I bought this book 20 years ago. I have shot the IZH-46M in informal target shooting. It improved my scores very much when I went to the range and shot against friends on our range day. I view this book from both a historical view and a practical knowledge view. It requres some devotion to go through it, but it paid bid dividends for Russian elite target shooters and it still has a lot to teach the average target shooting enthusiast trying to improve their game! Now, if they would only reprint this book so it did not cost an arm and a leg..."
+7589,1,OVER PRICED Crap with NO Guarantee,For MANY years I bought Wayfarers because they ARE stylish. ALL broke at the nose bridge. I still have six that broke that way. BUYERS BEWARE..!
+7590,1,Mucho ruido y pocas nueces,"Es una lectura entretenida y hasta ahÃ.La mÃnima ambientación histórica para hacer el relato fluido, el facilismo de la Inquisición para truncar personajes repentinamente, una buena parte del libro es la ""transcripción"" del alegato del protagonista en el juicio al que se lo somete.Y a partir de allà el argumento ya no es tal, sino una larga, laaarga nota al pie.No espere demasiado el lector."
+7591,1,Not worth buying,"for the price your paying here, go find a better product. got mine in the mail the next day, but was not impressed. not only is this by all means a lightweight product, but its also poorly constructed (made in india). mine was partially come unraveled -- fresh out of the package! but if truth be told, this piece of crap is a step up from what I had before, so that's the only reason it doesn't get one star."
+7592,1,Not that Great,"I had high hopes that this movie was going to be a riot. However, I was let down. This movie was not that great. It just didn't do it for me. I found it rather dull. I only laughed at a few parts. Not one to buy for sure. I don't even think it is worth a rental."
+7593,1,A Real Disappointment,"For those of us who've waited anxiously for Vol. 2 to finally appear, this is a sour disappointment. The jokes and scenarios are more contrived, and it feels like the cast members just didn't have their hearts in it anymore. The guest stars are more high-profile than in Vol. 1, but their appearances contribute little to the episodes.Additionally, Mayor Massengil and her son are gone, and a new (and unfunny) female lifeguard is added to the SPF crew.It's almost as if all the show's writers were replaced during season two (which is split between Vol. 1 and Vol. 2). Most of these episodes spoof well-known shows or movies, like The Matrix, Survivor, and James Bond -- but they try too hard and the spoofs run on too long.There are a handful of laughs in this volume, but none of the belly laughs of the first volume. Those of us who crave the gut-busting hilarity of Vol. 1 will just have to settle for re-watching those classic episodes."
+7594,1,spin spin spin,seems I may have already broke this bar - twisted it to stop it from spinning while I was doing exercise and heard a POP now it spins all the time I use it - Not happy :( I did not force it a suprised such a sturdy looking piece would break already.
+7595,1,Garbage,I am going out of my way to write this review because of how bad this thing is. Cuisinart's brand name is no longer good to me. This thing is GARBAGE and is going in the trash. It does not open cans well. I don't need much from a can opener but I DO need it to open a can. Is that too much? I could go on and on.....
+7596,2,Great item,"I bought this clothes drying rack because a tree fell on and destroyed my regular clothesline outdoors. I don't want to dry everything outside anymore, just a few things. This rack fits the bill perfectly. It's sturdy, very easy to assemble or take down to put away. I have not had it fall over at all, even out here in the wide open country. When I want to use it, I step out onto my deck, pull the rack out of my deck storage box, and set it up almost one-handed. Then, when I'm done with it, it is just as easily folded and placed back in the deck box for the next time. It was a little expensive, but I really needed something like this and the price is comparable to those I have seen in stores such as Lowes or Home Depot. I'm pleased with this purchase."
+7597,2,If you love Gemmell,"you will love this. I don't see the point in comparing his different books with each other. Sure there are differences between the books and some may appeal to you more than others but they are all David Gemmell and they are all great if you are a fan.No one would read all his books except one because it got one star less than the others, would they?You like David Gemmell's books? Get it. End of story.RIP David"
+7598,2,Nice book!,"I just got the book today, so I haven't looked at it in great detail... but the overall impression is great. Too bad that only about the first 1/3 of this book is in color..."
+7599,2,They Came to Cordura,"This film is set in 1916 Mexico during General Pershing's Punitive Expedition to capture Poncho Villa. Gary Cooper plays Maj. Thomas Thorn, an Army officer accused of cowardice, sent to observe and deliver five men (Van Heflin, Tab Hunter, Richard Conte, Michael Callan and Dick York) for consideration to receive the Congressional Medal of Honor. Rita Hayworth is an American accused of giving aid and comfort to the enemy. The film is rather tedious as it ever so slowly tries to discern the meaning of courage. Its greatest assets are the beautiful color cinematography by Burnett Guffey and an underrated and powerful performance by Van Heflin. I have never seen Heflin better, as he remains a constant thorn in the side of Cooper. Heflin plays one of the crudest and potentially violent characters I have ever seen. He physically looks the part and plays it with incredibly subdued menace. The film was directed by Robert Rossen and co-written by Rossen and Ivan Moffat."
+7600,2,"Older book, but still useful","When transitioning from a much older version of software, it is difficult to find a good resource. This book is a decent attempt to that for people transitioning from older VC++ products to .NET products. In my case, from VC++ 6.0 to Visual Studio 2008, which is quite a jump considering all the other versions introduced in between. While not a step by step guide, it has some valuable pieces of information to help with the migration process."
+7601,2,Accounting 301/302 Student - Intermediate Accounting,"This review referrs to the Problem Solving Guide Volume II, that covers chapters 15-25.This book is a must for anyone who is taking an intermediate accounting class that uses the Kieso/Weygandt accounting text.I found this book very helpful because it provides questions and solutions that are almost exactly like the questions that come from the test bank and are used on our exams. Students in our class who use this book generally do much better than those who do not. This book will help you understand what it is the author wants you to get out of the chapter. Frankly, the this book should raise your grade if you take an hour or two before each test and answer the multiple choice questions that it provides.I wouldn't buy this book unless I were taking a class. But I probably wouldn't buy any textbooks unless I were taking a class."
+7602,2,Useful in a limited way,This is a decent supplement to an introductory accounting class. It covers the very basics. For the price (I got it for $2) it was well worth it.
+7603,1,Stick with the book!,"I have used the book by the same name in working with clients, and have found it to be one of the best sources available on understanding anger and learning new skills. So I had high hopes for this audio CD, and thought it might be useful with clients who were less inclined to read a book. I am very disappointed. The information provided is very basic, and he takes forever to get to the ""meat"" of the material, and then doesn't spend enough time on the important parts. In one part he goes on and on about the importance of exercise, diet, and sleep, and in another part he goes on and on about keeping a diary of your anger, and how you could do it in a notebook or on a computer, etc. Like he is speaking with kindergartners. My husband and I were sitting here laughing because we were becoming quite irritated by listening to the CD!! Do not waste your money on this -- stick with the book, which is excellent."
+7604,1,Not helpful at all,"I did not find this book to be helpful in the least bit to help save my marriage. The author urges you to accept the situation and just learn to be happy with what you have. I believe in God and religion, but this book went way too far with that angle. A little would have gone a long way with me, but not the main theme throughout the book. I am writing this review because I did not get this indication from the other reviews I read before buying it. If you did NOT include ""Love, honor and OBEY"" in your wedding vows, then this book probably isn't for you."
+7605,2,Jane Eyre,"Enjoyable read! Did not read this while growing up, I thoroughly enjoyed the writing as well as the story. Refreshing!"
+7606,2,It does a good work for its price,"This humidifier may lack options that expensive ones have, but it is still a good deal. The sound is silent and the water tank has two handles on top and bottom for your convenience. It does not require a filter because it does not have any filtering process. The buttons for ""high"" or ""low"" humidicifations are all you need and that pretty much all it has.The weak point is that the water tank is so small that you need to fill it again after the use of a night. And the ""start"" button does not have any indication whether it is pressed or not (you have to listen to it untill it sounds to heat the water).Overall, it's a practical humidifier and a low price."
+7607,1,don't buy this thing,"I read the reviews,good and bad and decided to try it any way.Im running a newer version 13""macbook pro,8gig ram.Right out of the box, nothing but trouble with getting the play buttons to work on the exponent, they would work in torq, but not on the unit. Then i updated to the newest version and it worked, then crashed and started reprogramming it self. The pitch knob would all of the sudden become the play button and everything would switch around.To stop it you reset the midi default.I figured that out and managed to use it with all sorts of glitches and crappy sound quality for about a month.Then the left channel all of the sudden is like 40dbs quieter for some reason and also stopped saving my itunes playlist's order for some reason.It's built like crap, sounds like junk, works sometimes.If you want a stable platform for djing, this is NOT the machine.Im selling this piece and kicking my self for buying it."
+7608,2,smartlady loves books,"This is a great book, sure to enjoyed by every mystery book reader. It's truly an old classic,and belongs on every home book shelf. I highly recommend this book. This is reading for fun in it's essence."
+7609,1,numbers don't add up,"I spent a few days learning this system and finally got my numbers--it was difficult to work through, but I have well aspected Mercury and Neptunes even by his brutal criteria. The final result for me was that I had few markers for any mental illnesses, but I have been diagnosed in the past by five independent M.D. Psychiatrists with anxiety disorders, and I had only one marker for anxiety with his method! Plus, my Jupiter went down in flames since I have a conjunct (and parallel) with Saturn in the elevations. I strongly feel that this doctor is acting recklessly and irresponsibly, by persuing the Schizophrenia declinations. One control subject he mentioned in the book who has no history of mental illness had many markers for Schizophrenia. How about a self-fulfilling ""diagnosis."" He said the person is at high risk of developing the condition. I wouldn't recommend this book to someone who is not grounded about their own mental health condition, it could be damaging."
+7610,1,"No facts, just hype","The author uses many successful companies in his examples. The implications are that if a company has Big Goals it will have corresponding Big Successes. The counterpoint is ignored, that with Big Goals comes the possibility of Big Failures. Both are interesting studies, but this book only addresses the former and ignores the latter."
+7611,1,Depressing,"The book is just ""okay"". The characters didn't feel real to me. It was hard to imagine the story line and some of the secondary characters might have made the book better except the stars of the book rode around the countryside the entire time."
+7612,2,Not bad!,"I have used this stapler for about a year and so far so good. Its got plenty of power and hasn't jammed once. Of course it doesn't get used everyday on my jobs but it works when it does get used. I only have two gripes, one is the foam padding that wore off after two uses and second, the safty is hard to get used to because the gun has to be held perfectly to the material but its still a sound gun!"
+7613,1,*DOES NOT DO AUDIO OUTPUT!*,"I read someone elses review on here where they said they got the audio to output as well. I purchased based on that review, and that is incorrect. I was unable to get the audio to work correct (yes, I have SPDIF_OUT running to My GeForce 9800 GTX+) and it didn't work.The picture quality looks fantastic though."
+7614,2,Reformation Thinking at its Best,"Michael and Alan have masterfully addressed an issue that every Christian leader, and especially every pastor, needs to come to grips with. Their message is at the heart of an important paradigm shift that must take place in the western church if we are to experience a new reformation (and one is desperately needed). While you might not agree with everything they propose, as I didn't either, and some theological issues are lacking, it is reformation thinking at its best. A must read for anyone caring about the Great Commission at home and abroad."
+7615,2,Excellent Cam,"I wasn't sure which digital camera to choose and since this being my first purchase, I decided to go with the Sony DSCP8. I have no regrets ! I love it. Its excellent !"
+7616,2,Great for Camping,I got this for camping because I was tired of using expensive throw away tanks that didn't hold much gas.This one is a great compact size and costs about [...] to fill up. It is more than 4 times the capacity of the smaller ones yet still costs less to fill up then to buy one of the smaller ones.The only reason I gave it four stars is because of the price (although it will eventually pay for itself). Also sucks that Coleman makes you buy another [...] attachment to attach to their stoves.
+7617,1,Not a good writer....,I wasn't able to finish this book. This author has the most irritating style. Sometimes you just have to roll your eyes as you read his purple prose.
+7618,1,Click away!!! Click Away!!!,"Crappy construction, cheap materials, and miserable warranty. I should have read the reviews but always think I won't get hit with the same crap someone else does. Please read and avoid this product! I bought this as a Christmas present, so it was bought in December but the snow didn't clear intil May. first use, the handles bent at the bolts becaus they are cheap thin metal, and the lips of the cart all cracked and broke beacuse it is cheap thin plastic. And becasue it only has a 90 day warranty now I can't get it replaced. Gotta love it. STAY AWAY FROM THIS PRODUCT!!!!"
+7619,2,"Wow, the first album by Sonic Youth that could be described as beautiful","Thuston Moore as the sentimental, warm, yet world broken artist, Kim Gordon the deconstructionist rocker and Lee Renaldo as the visionary beat poet? Hmmm, perhaps, though the roles are somewhat interchangable. This is a stellar album no matter how you break it down. Melodic, disonant, angry, sad and for the first time warm and beautiful. Sonic Youth continue the trend of introspective song writing begun with Washing Machine but they do it better on this album. Some may say that on some songs they lost their edge, I'd say they broadened their pallette (and extended their songs) Their musicianship and muse continues to change and grow. A very strong and emotional effort."
+7620,2,Exactly what I was expecting,"I have a Toshiba notebook with builtin Bluetooth and was using an MX500 Logitech mouse. That mouse was great, except for the cablem which was long enough to be attached to even some very far desktop computers, but when you use it with a notebook, that cable is too long.When Logitech released the MX900, I decided to give it a try and now I'm using it very well. It works fine with the builtin Bluetooth, even if you can't install the software that comes with it if you're not using the Bluetooth station provided by Logitech.The only button that is not working is the app switch one, so, I can live with that.The battery lasts four full days for me, even leaving it inside the notebook carrying case (in dark surfaces the mouse can't power off the optical sensor) for long times.The mouse works very well for the kind of applications I use and the games I play (only Neverwinter Nights, actually).The price is a bit high, but I have to say that I love that mouse."
+7621,1,Cheap product,This product isent even half as good as they said it was. It has horrible graffiti capabilities. It gets scratches on the screen to easly. And the design is horribile it just looks like a box.
+7622,1,What a DUD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Do not waste your time!,"This must be one of the worst movies this yr-poorly acted, terrible plot, lousy actors, and very perdictable. I admit I rented this movie to see some shots of Kari Wuhrer but I did not see any-just 5 other babes who could not act at all-this looked like a movie made by Playboy productions-plenty of bare breasted chicks but no substance. What was Kari Wuhrer doing in this flop? At least she can act somewhat but in this one she seemed way above the rest of the cast because even her below par performance was far better than anyone else. In addition there were no shots of her in this movie which added to the disappointment--don't try this movie-you will be very disappointed if you are a Kari Wuhrer fan-the fox did not show it at all----"
+7623,1,Misrepresentation of Product,Photograph shows 1 spindle pack of 50 disks.That's not what you get.You will receive 1 single disk. Mine arrived damaged.
+7624,1,Not really sure if we used it correctly....,"But that being said, it was too short and wouldn't stay on. The lube lasted about 5 seconds before needing to be reapplied, and don't even ask me what those other stretchy things are for. They did nothing for him!"
+7625,1,Somewhat BORING,This story did not keep my interest and I had to force myself to finish this book. I hope the other books in this series are more interesting and romantic.
+7626,2,It's a piece of history,"It is true that this album is a crude ""hand made"" piece of art and that younger listeners may have trouble appreciating it's beauty. It is not as tasty as Paul's RAM or as well fabricated as Red Rose Speedway, but it does capture the flavor and atmosphere of Paul and Linda's life during the transitional period of Paul's move to solo superstardom. Bip Bop sounds as if it came straight from Paul's garage and Tomorrow can make your palms sweatt like a little love note from your honey. The album has an incredibly personal feel to it. Band On the Run and later Paul LP's got far, far away from this down-home style. If you like Paul, buy Wild Life. If you don't like Paul so much then see Smashing Pumpkins."
+7627,1,Please check product thoroughly....before allowing cats to use!!,"Received just days ago and later noticed sharp slivers of wood all around the wood box....they were coming out from the underside edges of the circles cut for your cats paws to enter to retieve the toys..I picked up the box and EVERY precut circlehad splinters of wood protruding the underside....I tried to pick them all off of every circular hole with my fingers ,and each circular hole had at least 2-3 slivers...but I still felt very uncomfortable letting my young cats play with this and possibly injuring themselves.This company really needs to look into this issue as it is a major hazard to your loved cats!!! PLEASE, if purchasing check under each hole to remove the loose wood slivers..."
+7628,2,"Perfect, what else is there to say?","No Kidding, best flashlight in the world. If you want quality and something that's going to last, maglite is the one regardless of the color! No, I don't work for them and don't own stock in the company!"
+7629,1,received wrong size,"The product itself, other than its size, was fine, but it wasn't the size advertised, and was completely non-workable for my purpose. I was further dissatisfied with the return process. I was told I could handle that through a local store, which I did. But the exchange ended by costing me more money than it was worth. In the end I did finally get the advertised product, but at a far greater cost than was advertised. A totally bad experience.RegardsFred James"
+7630,2,"Good, but there's ""More Than This"".","I do have to say that all these songs I love, and that Roxy Music is one of a kind. BUT, despite all the collections they've released, they all fall short. This is good because it has no Bryan Ferry solo material, but that's also why it's bad. It's hard to hear these songs and not want to also hear ""Slave To Love"", ""Kiss And Tell"", and ""Don't Stop The Dance"". However to really get it all, you'd have to go for the 3 disc ""Platinum Collection"". What would complement this well though, is a simple ""Best Of Bryan Ferry"". Still waiting for that one."
+7631,2,Excellent For A Begining Christian,"This ""New Century Version"" of the Bible has been a wonderful studing guide in our household. I would highly recommend this book for every Christian, no matter what your christian maturity may be. The vocabulary and content used is extremely easy to follow, understand and apply to life as it is today. My husband and I have used this bible on many occassion to better explain many verses to our christian friends who are still learning to take their first steps with Christ. I have compared this to my Ryrie Study Bible, and the translation is very close; however, it is written in a more easy to understand language. I have enjoyed the wonderful inserts by the various writters and I am very discouraged that the book is out of print."
+7632,2,The Boondock Saints Poster,Ordered this item for my son at college. He received it quickly and in perfect condition and he loves it.
+7633,1,Light on animal facts...,I thought this would be a fun learning game for my boys. It came with cards that talked about mortgages & food/water for the animals without any explanation of how to use that information. We ende dup just skipping that part & buying animals & charging basic rent when others landed on the space. It would have been so much better with animal questions or facts plus directions.
+7634,2,Great product!,"This product lives up to expectations. I was a little worried after having read other reviews, but the manufacturer instructions weren't so bad. I programmed two of these in less than 10 minutes. It is a savior for us too! Our cats don't wake us up for food anymore. The only change I would make to this product is to allow for different portion sizes throughout the day. But it's fine - we give our cats a 1/4 cup twice a day and they are happy. Buy this product with peace of mind!"
+7635,1,Weak story and even weaker female lead.,This is the worst Palmer I have ever read. The male is a horrible guy who says things no woman should hear. The female lead has no backbone and repeats herself over and over. Do not waste the money.
+7636,1,Terrible audio on video on demand,"We had to give up after about 10 minutes of watching. The dialogue was completely unintelligible, at least on our late-model TV in a large open living room."
+7637,1,Service Plan Never Received!!!,"I have never received any correspondence from this company. They were supposed to send the service plan within 2-3 weeks after I received the television. However, as I stated - I never received the plan!!"
+7638,1,paper Jams,"Unfortunately, the paper kept jamming in this calculator, rendering it all but unusable, which is a shame. I was unable to clear the jam after a while."
+7639,1,def jam promotes animal abuse,DMX is an animal abuser. Don't buy this album and boycott Def Jam records until they stop glamorizing dog fighting with albums like this.
+7640,1,Couldn't Download Software for New Printer,"I purchased my HP Officejet 5610 on 2/28/2007, and it took me a over a week (hours!) before I was able in download the software and use it. I continued to receive an error message ""The copy function cannot be used"". The same thing happened with the HP printer I previously used at home. HP support was quick with providing responses but unfortunately the steps provided were not exactly what I had to do to successfully complete this task. My next personal printer will not be an HP!"
+7641,2,Loud and Fun for Two,"This is a hit with our boys, ages 2 and 3.5. They will actually play together, each with a mouth piece and a horn attachment. It is loud, but with our boys loud is the norm and anything that helps them play together without our help for an extended period (twenty minutes or so) is worth the noise. Thanks to the Super Saxoflute, the couch cushions and dog get a break while we get dinner on the table. We will be purchasing other Quercetti toys."
+7642,1,Princessmika,It doesn't give my nails a brought shine whats so ever it's horrible! I gave two stars because item was on time
+7643,1,Somebody is stealing my review and copy and pasting!,"wow! what a gay! I wish that Carrie would get better producers, vocal coaches, make-up and hair crew... Well, let's just say Carrie needs a lot more help than anyone else would need."
+7644,1,Misinformed and Annoying,"This film is full of misinformation and the way the narrator/creator presents it is just plain annoying. His whiny, condescending voice made making it all the way through it nearly impossible! This was just an obvious attempt to capitalize on the success of Supersize Me (of which I'm not even a fan, so don't get my intentions here wrong!) A ""reaction video"" on youtube would have been a more appropriate medium for this guy's opinion.Also, I still can't get over the fact that this guy is so incredulous about his own obesity. YOU ARE FAT, BUDDY! And your cholesterol was high from the start, so you're obviously not one to be giving the public advice about being healthy.Don't waste your time on this one."
+7645,1,It's a wall paper seam roller! For gosh sakes!!,Don't waste your money. This is a wallpaper seam roller that you can buy at the hardware store for three bucks. It isn't intended for heavy materials like Dynamat.Jeeeez!
+7646,2,Great for bonding with your partner and your belly!,"Although the size of this book is small, the joy we got out of reading it to my belly was not! It states right in the title that this book is meant, ""... to be read in utero"" and that's exactly what we did every night. My husband and I would read to my belly every night before going to bed. After about a week, the baby would respond, by moving, every time we read it. We would take turns reading it so that our son could hear both of our voices. I never read it to my son after he was born because we have the original book, but Dr. Suess books are some of his favorites to this day (and he's 18 months old now).I am purchasing it this time for my best friend, who is expecting her first child. My husband and I are now expecting our second son and we plan to start reading it to him every night as soon as he can ""hear."" I would recommend this book for exactly what it states itself to be: ""A book to be read in utero."""
+7647,2,Perfect Robe Hooks,"Great style, fit and finish. I use them for bath towel hooks. The hardware went up very quickly with the hollow wall fasteners. They come with two small self-drilling screw in anchors that are so easy to use with the anchor plate. A set screw holds the hook on the mount."
+7648,2,Its a good book but it takes a while to get through it,"Its a very good book but I don't think it targets beginners as much as it claims to. There is a tutorial that runs through the book but it doesn't give concise instructions of the steps one should follow. If these were clearly indicated I would give the book 5/5. I feel that one should know a little about Powerbuilder before attempting to approach this book. However it is so detailed that it takes a while to complete, this can be percieved as a good or a bad thing."
+7649,2,Gifter,Gave this book to my granddaughter as a gift as she is majoring in all aspects of stagecraft. She was very happy with it.
+7650,2,ANOTHER FLORIDA WRITER,"I read a lot of books in the mystery genre that deals with Florida, and I keep being told to try James W. Hall, the Thorn series. But I found a used book, HARD AGROUND, outside the Thorn series and decided to try it before trying his series stuff. This book is very good. Nice story line, fun characters and good witty dialogue. Perhaps a little predictable but worth my time in a hammock or at the beach. The story deals with the death of Daniel Tyler and with it his secret location for lost treasure an how brother Hap and Dan's girl friend Marguerite work together (really together) to unlock the mystery and stay alive. RECOMMENDED. Will try Thorn for sure."
+7651,2,Please Reprint!,"Will the world listen to the plea of thousands and reprint this masterpiece of 60's parody!!! I cannot face the future without seeing Ms. Armbruster one more time!

+7652,2,An Inspiring and Important True Story,"Every parent who wants to raise a child with as much preparation for life as possible should read this story. It was her mother who taught Ruby to hold her head up, to go forward, to restrain from retaliation and to face a level and circumstance of opposition that most adults, of whatever background, have never faced. And she did it. Behind every child there needs to be such a person as this mother. Shrinking back or exploding would have been easier in their situation, but Ruby's story is known today because a better and more lasting way was instilled in her and followed. We use the word ""courage"" loosely today. This story brings it back to its giant proportions. A child seized a historic time of opportunity, and denied ruthless evil its assumed victory."

It's sad when these fresh-faced young women think they have to act like little divas to get what they want, she has already embarrassed herself and her family with nude photos that were supposedly ""taken in private"", she demands that the studio give her more than 1 million to star in next high school musical sequel, give me a break! Let's just see her for what she is, a spoiled and inconsiderate little bratt, enough said."
+7654,2,If you could only afford one lens - this would be it,"Assuming that you are a ""model based"" photographer... and you were only able to afford one L series lens - this should be it.The 24-70 range is great for shooting people at a comfortable working distance. My primary portrait lens is the 85 1.2L, but prior to going with a prime - this was my primary lens.It's sturdy. It's really sharp at 5.6 and above. And though it only goes down to 2.8 - the zoom is really enough of a benefit to outweigh a limited specialty use of a wider aperture.Downside: heavy and expensive.Upside: great range, good sharpness, excellent color renditionI strongly recommend this over the 24-105 4.0L IS. I have that one too - and I find that this lens is better for natural light situations - while I find myself using the other one more in studio."

+7660,1,The menstruation of Mumu,"Mariah Carey: Living proof that record sales do not reflect talent. Take the vocals away from this tired album and you've got the basics for every R&B; meets pop release in the past year. Mariah Carey lacks the creativity to write songs that sound unique, interesting, or thought provoking. Every song runs together like a never-ending nightmare. If you are a closet-case gay, or a young girl with low self-esteem and braces, this is the record for you.Otherwise, keep Mimi away from YouYou.In addition, the rating system does not offer zero, which this album begs to be given.For those of you who might not have heard the album, all you have to do is turn to your local top 40 station. It will played intermittantly every hour along with all the rest of the boring fodder that they insist we listen to."

How many artist do you know who keeps it real with their prison id number?Lyfe ""with the y"" has a unique sound and raw lyrics that you have not heard in a while.

The changes had to be made after you un-installed the driver, hence you had to work with out a mouse. What a major ordeal. Many other people had the same problem. The fix they gave me did not work. I just bought a logitect laser mouse. Microsoft needs to get their act together on this mouse. I can not recommed it to anyone."

I have several pedometers that use this battery and they were starting to lose their programs due to the battery running down. I needed 4 of these batteries and this 10 pack was much less expensive than buying a couple of 2 packs from my local electronics store; I would've paid more than three times what this 10 pack cost. I should be covered now for a long time to come. I purchased these from a marketplace seller who shipped my purchase promptly and I believe I got a good deal. I only wonder how long the batteries will hold their charge if they're not actually powering a device as I have several left over that I may not not need for a long long time.

This item has been discontinued. Usually when a small kitchen appliance is discontinued it goes on clearance. It is important to note that this item does not churn ice cream, and it does not churn or freeze yogurt. This item merely heats to the proper temperature for making yogurt. The sellers who are selling this item are clearly unethical as anyone can see by the price. This is a yogurt maker and should be priced as such.

However, if you still want to listen to some good old fashioned no-frills punk rock sung by one of punk's most beloved artists, then you will definitely not be disappointed with this albumn."

+7681,1,Freud Diablo Ferrous Metal Cutting Blade,"I have used a Freud non-ferrous metal cutting blade for a number of years and have been very happy with it. I have cut pieces of aluminum stock up to 1/4"" with good results.Unfortunately, I can't say the same about the ferrous metal blade. As soon as I made one or two short cuts in a sheet of .030"" mild steel on my table saw, the blade became dull. Further cuts were difficult and resulted in considerable burring.I reported the problem to Freud and they gave me a return authorization. The replacement blade behaved the same way.Based on my experience, I can't recommend the blade."

Smith's Lensman Series, it was still fantastic reading.I had started reading it before, but laid it down unfinished. Then I discovered Z Lensman, read it, enjoyed it, then came back and read Dragon.I do suggest, however, that you read Dragon first, then Z second, as Z builds on some of the events of Dragon, then, of course, read the Rigellian version.If you love E.E.Smith's books, as I do, then definitely read David Kyle's three Lensman books, written from the points of view of the other three Second Stage Lensmen.John (www.MAZES.com) Knoderer"
+7685,2,Great way to introduce math,"I would recommend this to preschoolers who are being introduced more advanced counting and the very basics of addition and subtraction. We watched it 5-6 times, total, and I do think my little boy got a lot out of it. It covers counting 0-10, then introduces addition and subtraction (with sums never above 10). The ""tricks"" such as the countable objects--""Quidgets""--work pretty well, and a lot of math facts are introduced in a relatively short time, but all in a fun and entertaining way.By the way, despite the reviews, I strongly prefer this to ""Math Adventure to the Moon,"" which is much sillier, more lightweight, and less focused."

I tried a second time, and got the same result. Went back to TDK with the same good results I'd had previously. I'm sure it matters what CD burner you use, whether or not these will work for you. Didn't work for me.~heidimo"
+7692,2,A Man on a Mission,"I enjoyed this Harry Bosch mystery alot. I did not enjoy it as much as the previous two Bosch books but that is hardly a major criticism. Connelly has fleshed out the Harry Bosch character quite well in this cop/psychological thriller. After Harry loses his cool and attacks his boss he gets suspended and sent to the department shrink. During this suspension Harry decides to investigate the thirty year old unsolved homocide of his mother. Connelly succeeds on several levels with this book. First this is an excellent police procedural. Second, Connelly has Harry wrestling with his demons while investigating his mother's homocide. This really broadens the character of Harry Bosch. I also like the character of Jazz who is Harry's love interest. My major complaint about the novel is that there is one to many plot twists for my liking. Not a major detractor though. Overall a good book. I look forward to ""Trunk Music""."
+7693,1,UNSATISFYING PURCHASING,"When the item was received just arond last Christmas, it was polished shiny and the design was really attractive. However, after we used it and washed, we found the silver color truned little dark (not tarnished yet, but it seems like) and some spots look like peeling.Since we threw away the packing box, we felt not to return it. However, if the merchant agreed to accept the return without the box, we would appreciate it. Therefore, they would learn what the problem was. And they may feedback to the factory.Hoping to receive a good reply from the merchant soon."
+7694,1,Authors should NOT narrate their audio books,"I want to listen to this book, truly I do. And I know that I'll like it because it's right up my alley. But I could not get through the first disk. Why do some authors insist on reading their own books? Is it to save a buck? Is it because they think they can do it better justice than an actor? Well, they're wrong in most cases. I couldn't get past the dramatic (or otherwise) pauses this author used, sometimes between every word in a single sentence. Usually, I hang in there and even an annoying voice starts to grow on me or becomes tolerable. This was painful though. So I guess I'll have to do it the good old fashioned way, and download it to my Kindle. :-)"
+7695,2,Short Stories are Great,"These are some of the best short stories I've ever read. The overall story isn't that great, but it's worth it just for the short stories. Some of them are just so damn good I was just amazed. Some of my favorites are: Slumming, Swan Song, Exodus, Civil Twilight, Product Placement,and The Nightmare Box. Twisted, sick, funny, and just brilliant writing. Definitely recommended."
+7696,2,The original and still the best.,"This is a cracking good western with Glenn Ford playing the bad guy and doing a great job of it. He is a nasty villain but with lots of charm. Van Heflin is the conflicted rancher trying to deliver Ford to the 3:10 train to Yuma without getting killed by Fords gang. Top notch filming, acting and writing."

+7700,1,Informative but idiosyncratic coverage of historical warships,"This book offers an interesting diagrammatic presentation of thirty-six warships, ranging from a Roman galley to a ""Nimitz""-class aircraft carrier. Naval buffs will find this a useful book, with numbered guides accompanying the cut-away color diagrams that offered details about the layouts of the various ships. Yet the selection of what constitutes a ""great"" warship is rather idiosyncratic. The selection is exclusively Western in its orientation, as Chinese junks, Ottoman galleys or Imperial Japanese Navy vessels completely absent. Moreover, the compilers seemed to have been unable to decide whether a great warship was an innovative one or a historic one and included selections of both, leaving out others more deserving in the process. As a result, while an interesting resource, it is a limited one that lacks a theme that could have made it a truly valuable book."
+7701,2,Does its job. Excellent build quality.,I've tried a couple of different filters and the B+W's have not disappointed me yet. I love that the ring is made of metal and not some cheap plastic. I actually got a filter stuck on a lens because I accidentally left my lens in a hot car and altered the shape of the filter's ring. This is a wonderful filter!
+7702,2,Excellent book - I couldn't put it down!,I'll make this review short and sweet.It was one of the best books I have ever read and I've read hundreds of books over my years. This held my interest so much that I had a problem putting it down every night and often found myself thinking about the character throughout my day. Excellent book and very well written. I wish there were more authors out ther that could write books like this. You will not be dissapointed with this one by any means.

+7704,2,An essential handy reference for project management,I specifically like the project risk management part of the book. The concept was written very well that it is easy to understand. It also provides good templates for practical use.
+7705,1,Worst French textbook,"This textbook was required for a course I gave to language teachers in French. I didn't choose it. I would never have chosen it. The pictures were so bad, everyone ended up laughing. The French really being taught wasn't terribly useful, and the ""story line"" was downright boring. The grammatical explanations were sketchy, but the very worst thing about the book was that it was so ho hum. I tried the book again with a long-time student, and he lasted about 3 lessons before he dozed off. Facon de parler is not the French facon. They are a very interesting people, even when they're just talking about mushrooms, and this book far from does them justice."

+7707,1,A waste of time so far,I had high hopes. He gets to the point on his show. I thought he'd make the most of the chance to lay out his beliefs. The biggest surprise was his inability to illustrate what's he's talking about. The only concrete example in the sixty pages I read twice was the stuff about Oprah. Thereafter it's just mush. Provocative chapter headings but the text is fluff. Big disappointment. I got a lot more out of Scott Peck's The Road Less Traveled.
+7708,2,Great Music Toy for Infants and Toddlers!,"Out of a whole bin full of toys, my child still returns to these simple toys. If your child likes toys that make noises, buy these eggs. They are great! They make a great ""shaking"" sound and are easy for baby to hold. My child started using them around 6 months of age and would begin grinning and laughing when he discovered the noises that the eggs made--an instant hit. My child is now a year old and still loves the ""shaky eggs"". They are easy to pack, and too big to swallow, so I feel safe at letting him play with them--and the sound they make is quite pleasant--and no batteries required! Great purchase."
+7709,1,Stay away.,"Possibly one of the WORST games i've ever played. Not only do the voices sound terrible, the game play is just plain boring. After an hour of trying to get out of a building, you spend another 30 mins trying to get out of a CROSSROAD! Ok, if you like games that give you headachs with annoying surf music, games that have you go back to old levels over and over, and a repetive, almost boring sword/oar combos.But dont take my word for it."
+7710,1,Beware de Kindle Edition!,"The book is ok, a little slow as other reviews point out. But the main problem is that the Kindle edition is full of misspellings and typos. Apparently they scan a normal book and have some OCR (Optical Character Recognition) to get the digital version, but with absolutely no quality assurance. Every one or two pages you see a ""l"" as a ""1"" or where and ""r"" is before a ""n"" (like ""concern"") you get an ""m"" (""concem""). This is annoying. It does not make the book unreadable but you would expect better. English is not my fist language but I could do a far better job correcting the book than Amazon is doing."

+7714,1,Can someone say quota?,"Ok,as a Larry McMurtry fan, I just got done with his trilogy about Thalia. Wonderful stories. Of course I read Lonesome Dove, Terms of Endearment, and all of his classics.This book sucked. First of all, it was weirdly sexual, pointless, and the themes were just a bad copy of the good books he's written. This is the worst book he has ever written, and no one should read it. It was just a pointless story that was obviously his last book he needed to fill his quota to his publisher."

If someone knows a russian version (like Mravinsky or Rojdensvensky), ieven with a worse recording, it's worth getting the real intense flavour of this music."
+7717,1,Medea with a chorister as protagonist,"Well, how about a medea without a medea? Antonacci is awful. Small voice, inexpressive, short on top, no chest tones, pallid middle, monotonous in delivery, no passion, no fury, just a good stage presence that helps her get through the ordeal. Without a strong protagonist it's pointless to comment on the other aspects of this dismal dvd."

+7719,1,Susan Estrich is a brainless hack,"Soulless is a personal attack on Ann Coulter, The cover shows how un-original liberals are, it's supposed to be her dressed as Ann. It looks more like a cross between Ann and Meatloaf.If you can't beat 'em, join 'em. That's apparently the mantra of liberal authors who can't stop Ann Coulter's popularity on TV and in the book world.Ann Coulter is brutally honest. At times honesty proves to be most unkind. But that's just the way it is. Sometimes Ann Coulter treats the liberal left as they have treated her, and they don't like it. But I can't recall anytime where she was hateful as Estrich has been.As far as her detractors calling her brainless, well, just consider the ignorance of thesource.Susan Estrich's Dumb Ann Coulter Attacks are ""WITLESS"""
+7720,1,It held my attention...,"It held my attention if that's saying anything. There was never a point where I was saying, ""I can't put this book down."" it was melodramatic and Jasmine was quite irritating. I'm glad they acknowledged that in the book but that was the whole plot. Her irritation. Honestly she was just self-righteous to the fullest.Terrence, well I didn't have a major issue with him. But the whole story was just a little... Blah. Sorry that's the best word I can use to describe it."
+7721,2,Functional and non-intrusive.,"This is a great dish drain! It doesn't take up a lot of counter space and it's way more stylish than I would expect from a rubbermaid product. The dark color is nice because it doesn't draw attention to itself like a white or chrome-colored drainer would. Considering the price, I think the drain board (drip pan) should be included. The main flaw is that it is hard to keep the drain board clean because the mineral residue from the water bonds to the surface of the plastic. Even so, it's still my favorite dish drainer on the market."
+7722,2,"Fun, fun, fun!","The traditional animation look of the new Larryboy is wonderful! It reminds me of classic UPA (""Underdog"", ""Mr. Magoo"", etc.) -- kids and adults will love it. Read a news release about this video and was interested to see that Big Idea partnered with veteran cartoon studio Cornerstone Animation to reprise this nostalgic animation style. The moral message is delivered effectively by the magic of top-quality animation. My family loves the new Larryboy!!!"
+7723,1,Bevere negates the grace of God and creates a doctrine of salvation through works,"Bevere's handling of the scriptures is negligent. He is not rightly dividing the word of truth as Paul admonishes Timothy in the 2nd book of Timothy. Bevere is adding a doctrine of works to a Christian's salvation which is heresy. A Christian's salvation is by faith in Christ alone. When a Christian stands before the judgment seat of God, his or her only defense is Christ, not works. A true Christian will bear fruit and work for the Lord out of their love and relationship with their risen savior. A true Christian can't help but want to be involved in the Lord's work. Trying to motivate people through the use of fear is pointless and it doesn't help them to have a healthy relationship with their Lord and Savior. Instruction is necessary for the Christian but heresy such as is written in John Bevere's book will only lead some astray. (read 2 Timothy 3:6 & 7)"
+7724,1,not exciting,"This is one of Seagal's lesser efforts. All actors end up in some clunkers and this is one of Steven's. I feel he's been in 12 great movies and so it's not unusual to have some duds. The Patriot, The Foreigner, Out For A Kill, and Ticker are duds, but the other dozen films are worth a look and fun stuff."
+7725,1,Review for A Primer For Disaster Recovery Planning In An IT,"The book has very little meat to it, although it has 200pg it ends on page 100 and gives you a bibliography. It does not go deeply into how to develop a disaster recovery plan. The second half of the book pretains to irrelevant information."
+7726,2,Grouped greatness,"The first book in an outstanding anthology series. Each short novel of this volume is worth the price of the book, and you get them all.If you like any of the authors here, this is a MUST own."
+7727,2,Quartz's classic NWoBHM masterpiece,"Stand Up And Fight was an incredible album that many people believe to be the finest NWoBHM album made. The music still has the Sabbath crunch that Quartz lovingly duplicated, however Quartz always had their own sound. The title track is nice way to start the action, ""Revenge"" is a very heavy track with a great riff, ""Charlie Snow"" is great too. This was the last Quartz album with the original line up. 1983's Against All Odds is still out of print, but it is my fave by Quartz."
+7728,1,Microsoft CRM,There is very little in this book. Don't buy it.P.S. The product isn't ready for prime time either.
+7729,2,"A ""must-see"" for Poitier fans!","I heard of this movie through a magazine which listed all-time great love stories. I have always liked Sidney Poitier though never thought of him as a romantic lead. In this movie, he is a single dad who finds love again. I'm so glad I purchased this movie through Amazon. I was unable to find it elsewhere. It is a welcome addition to my collection!"
+7730,1,Nice try,Good concept but poor execution. The book had some interesting insights into the music business but was too long. Tyree's imitation of drum beats quite annoying and almost made me put the book down!
+7731,2,More than a soundtrack.,"When this cd was released, it was more than a great soundtrack to a cool movie, it also served as an instant ""Best Of Grunge"" collection. It's true there's no ""Nirvana"", but when you listen to what IS here, I'm sure you'll find yourself in a state of bliss. Included are songs from ""Alice In Chains"", ""Soundgarden"", ""Mudhoney"", ""Screaming Trees"", and two from ""Pearl Jam"". Plus epics from ""Mother Love Bone"", and ""Smashing Pumpkins"". Also there's excellent non-grunge from ""Paul Westerberg"", ""Jimi Hendrix"", and ""Lovemongers"", (Heart). It's really just a great collection of killer music. The only way it could have been any better, is if it was packaged in flannel."
+7732,2,Joe Temperley on baritone- nice!,"this is a lovely album... very pleasant... and my introduction to Joe Temperley. He is a top bari man, and I think has been in the Ellington band at times. Either way, he's in his wheelhouse here... he is a very tasteful, toneful player and with Ellington melodies and songs to work with you have great material played by great players... a high recommendation and I'm on the lookout for more Joe Temperley stuff..."
+7733,1,Seriously Lacking Function,"Like most of the reviews have already said this is a cute mobile, but that's where it ends.My daughter LOVES it, but it serves no good functioning purpose if I have to stand beside the crib to wind it back up after a min or 2 of spinning. The obnoxious noise from winding this mobile completely wakes her up after she was well on her way to dream land.If it was battery operated I would easily give this mobile more than 1 star, but there was a serious lack of attention paid to the functional side of a cute/ matching mobile.I plan to return it."
+7734,1,Horrible software - I returned it,Terribly written software. The installation process was a nightmare. After installing the application I tried to install 9 CDs worth of maps. After each disc the installer crashed so I had to restart the application repeatedly. It got stuck on on disc an was never able to complete the installation.With the maps I did install I found the navigation and software interface to be SLOW and not intuitive. It was a waste of money and I have returned the software to the seller.
+7735,2,Great cookbook!,"Very simple, yet delicious recipes. Exactly what you would expect from Mr. Food. We're excited to make many of these dishes!"
+7736,1,"Adverse reaction, beware","I tried Advantix (as opposed to Advantage) for the first time recently and immediately noticed that my dog was having a strong reaction to it. She stayed up all night panting heavily and periodically would run in circles. I checked the package insert and it said nothing about possible adverse reactions, and the product website also failed to warn of potential problems. However, I read on a vet's site that Advantix, unlike Advantage, is known to cause a variety of side effects, including hyper-activity, which was obviously what was going on with my dog. This site said not to use the product again in the event of a bad reaction. Not only was I unhappy with the product, but was upset that Bayer didn't bother to list possible side effects. Very irresponsible. I won't use any of their pet products again."
+7737,1,If You Are New To The Business World,"If you are new to the business world this book might be helpful, but for someone like myself that has been in business for years, this is just basic business knowledge.This book was recommended to me to help me move up in my career, however, there is nothing new that Ms. Ruffino wrote that I already didn't know.She also seems to be lost in years of the male dominated business field because she concentrates on how to beat the males in many ways.If you know nothing about being a business woman, buy this book, but if you have been in the business world as long as I have, save your money.It is very dry and you will learn nothing new."
+7738,2,Shampoo- ease Tray,"I bought this to do hair at a retirement home. It is a little tricky to use in a shampoo sink because of the cut out for the neck, it would work better in a regular sink. The suction cups are very strong so that helps. I have to adjust the chair ( height and closeness to the sink) for every customer. Keep the water pressure low or it sprays out of the tray. They need to keep their neck against the tray at all times or the water runs down the back, especially if the hairline is low. I would also recommend using a shampoo cape( bought at a beauty supply store)with a towel wrapped around the neck underneath the cape. Even with all that I sometimes end up getting alot of water on the floor. Its not perfect but it does help."
+7739,2,It's gaining more depth,"This anime started off a little better than average. These episodes develop the characters a bit more. The relationship between Daisuke and Risa goes nowhere, and the feelings Riku has for Daisuke start to develop. There is also a little bit more detail about Emiko (Daisuke's Mom) and Daisuke's Dad (Kousuke). It's kinda funny actually. Emiko always insisted before she would agree to date a boy, that they would have a boy. That freaked everyone out as you can imagine. But Daisuke's Dad manned up and stole her heart.These episodes are pretty cute. As with many great shows, it takes time to develop a meaningful story. So my 3 star review of DVD 1, and my 4 star review of DVD 2 may end up being blown away in the later volumes. This series is getting better as I continue to watch. I'll keep watching and let you know how this series turns out."
+7740,2,it is all here and it is cosmic wonderful,"if you are reading this review--I will assume you are at least a passingPat Metheny fan.you have found a gem.just about everything you could wantas far as sound quality,song selection,musicianship (Pat and Lyle Mays areboth in top notch form here)and the genuine,obvious joy they are taking inthis live performance are a giant treat.track #4--""HALF LIFE OF ABSOLUTION"" starts out (first minute or so)a little slow--(this is important because if you are using media player to preview you may think this is a ""throw away"" track.it is not.)it is 15+ minutes of some of the best guitar work you have ever heard--pure hypnotic headphone music.the first time I heard it, I just shook my head and said ""wow"".and I NEVER say""wow"".this disk is offered at 2 price points--the less expensive version(around $5.00 as of Dec,2006)is just fine.this entire disk is well worththe expenditure of your entertainment $. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!"
+7741,1,Nearly put me to sleep!,"I bought 4 DVDs in this series, because I had heard the name ""Stott"" often in relation to Pilates. I was looking forward to solid instruction and moderately challenging exercises. To say I was sorely disappointed would be an understatement. I have had a difficult time getting through these workouts even once each, not because they are difficult, but because they are so incredibly slow paced and boring. Stott talks in a monotone throughout, and it took great effort to stay focused on the workout. Very, very boring! I would definitely not recommend these workouts unless you like following an instructor who is just barely above comatose energy."
+7742,2,another great trip,"I have some of their other DVD's, & this is just as good. They show pyramids, the nile, mummies, temples, wow, so much huge amazing relics! What makes it really unique is they show the bad stuff too like people always trying to sell them stuff & how hot it gets. If you want to go to Egypt, you should learn these things first. It has cool music too, all moody & mystical, totally fits w/the temples & desert."
+7743,2,Excellent!,"This is an excellent DVD. The workouts and settings are very, very good. As the other reviews note, the workout does move rather quickly. However, after the first workout the pace is about right. The workouts leave you feeling toned and relaxed at the same time."
+7744,2,Westerberg is best.,Paul Westerberg is simply the best songwriter this country has.Everybody else pales in comparison. AND he can flat out rock the house when he feels like it.
+7745,2,"Queer Science, a good read","Simon LeVay's thoroughly goes through what it IS that `causes' homosexuality. Overall this novel is comprehensiveand and widely inclusive. He takes all different standpoints, including his own on the various standpoints of scientific 'theory' regarding homosexuality. The book itself is a good read, easy to understand and very straight forward. If you want a book that is mostly un-biased but discsses many facets of homosexualitythen look no further!"
+7746,1,Marlone Star is sexier in a photograph than he was in this crap film.,"I really love movies that are good because they are bad but, this is simply a bad film all around. The actors seemed too into themselves to even act poorly. The dialog was not cheesy or outrageous enough. The lines were not delivered in an extreme or zany way. If I'm watching an action film like ""Transformers"", then I'm not expecting great acting, but I can at least hope the action scenes are good(not saying that's what I got). This is how bad films that are good for being bad should be rated. I really only thought this film would be good because I thought Marlone Star would have some sexy scenes it it. I was honestly expecting the sex scenes to be better than the plot, but this was not like one of Bruce LaBruce's earlier films. And even his films have become pointless. There's no point in expecting good erotic sex, or anything else."
+7747,2,Gran Torino,Perfect example of what pusses gang members are. They cant take on anybody one on one. It has to be five on one. And they have to have a weapon. A really good caring movie. How he knew he was dying so he gave his life to get revenge for the girl. Best Eastwood movie since Unforgiven.
+7748,2,Good Movie to say the least...,"Well, I'm going to buy this because I really liked the movie.. but I could be easily further encouraged by at least a partial song list"
+7749,2,TIMOTHYS WORLD COFFEE-MORNING BLEND,"TIMOTHYS, MORNING BLEND, HAS A PERFECT BALANCE-NOT TO STRONG AND NOT WEAK. A GOOD ADDITION TO YOUR MORNING COFFEE COLLECTION."
+7750,2,"Great Value, Excellent Pens",These are perfect work pens. I have a hard time spending money on a decent pen!Big Round Grip are comfortable to write with and the ink glides and writes smooth.No complaints and this pack is a great deal!
+7751,2,Great Little Machine,"Bought this for my Mum for Christmas and it is a great little machine.The sound quality is very clear and the volume perfect for a room in a house. She uses it in the kitchen and it fits the bill nicely. If you want a boombox for an auditorium the volume may not be enough but it's great in a house.The CD, Radio and Tape Player sound crisp, it is not too heavy, which is good for my Mum and its colour scheme looks really sharp.It would have been nice to have a built in mic or mic socket but there we go. jWin if you read this take note!All in all I highly recommend this machine."
+7752,1,Not very good for beginners wanting to learn bidding,"This box actually includes two bridge games. One is the standard Hoyle game, with the face creator and opponents like Harley the bear. It is very similar (if not exact) to the bridge game in the Hoyle Card Games package. This game does not provide hints.The other game is MVP Bridge Deluxe, which is a very old shareware title written for Windows 3.1. The copyright is 1994-1998. This is the one with the advertised in-game hints. Unfortunately, the hints are not very helpful to someone who wants to learn how to bid. For example, it will prompt you to bid something like ""1NT"", but then it does not offer any information as to why that is the proper bid.I suppose that if you already know how to play, this might be fun, but then again, you would be better off getting the Hoyle Card Games package, as it has many more games and is less expensive."
+7753,1,"If you like rust in your tea, this one is great!","These kettles rust easily, it is unfortunately because they do look nice and match other Le Creuset cookware well. A bit funny reading the review battles over whether people are caring for them properly - how do you know who to believe? But my 2c after having two of these kettles is simply to stay away or just be ok with buying a new one every year."
+7754,2,One of better western romance novels,"Not the best that I've read, but pretty close. I like the more descriptive love scenes, this book just skipped right over them, but Willow and Jules made up for that with their entertaining banter."
+7755,1,An uneasy read.,"For anyone who is familiar with Frank Schaeffer's background, and that of his parents, Francis and Edith Schaeffer, this book and its predecessor, Portofino, can make for very uneasy reading. Although they can be humorous at points and literarily compelling, one cannot help but feel a bit dirty, imagining Frank's mother reading what her son really thinks of her and her late husband. A previous reviewer mentioned the deadining effect of Calvinism. I wonder what can be said of the effect of Eastern Orthodoxy upon a person who feels driven to publish something like this about his own family."
+7756,1,Caught On Fire,"I bought this dishwasher for my son.He had it one year and last week it literally ""blew up!"" Sparks flew out the door and back of the machine.Luckily,he was home at the time.Scary part is...he usually turned it on before he went to bed.Customer service at Haier has been a nightmare.Beware of this product and this company."
+7757,2,great book everybody must read,great book every one must read there is more than enuff evadence to prove this book we must not forget .
+7758,1,anchovy paste spewed a mess in pantry,"I bought a 12 pack of this exact product about 6 months ago. It was not from this seller. They were kept in a cool pantry in a kitchen that is always temperature controlled. I used one right away. It was good. They all say Best By:Jan 27 2012. Today is Mar 2011. The remaining 11 have all swelled up, unrolled the end, and the contents has spewed out. I am throwing them all in the trash. I had previously purchased a 12 pack of Amore Anchovy paste and had them in my pantry for nearly two years as I used them all without any issue. I will stay away from Crown Prince. My packages say Imported From Morocco."
+7759,1,Toe blew out in 4th performance,"I was very disappointed with this shoe, and Capezio. My 9 year old had the correct size (confirmed by costumer), wore it in a musical play four evenings, and the toe completely blew out of one of the shoes. Returning it."
+7760,1,Why is this woman on CD?,"The selections are all the same, production is weak. Why does this women get to make an album? Her voice is very ordinary, her talent minimal. I imagine even her fans will be disappointed. I always wonder why she isn't embarrassed to be in front of people."
+7761,2,FUN!!!,"It's great. Great graphics. Every kind of mini game. Listen to music with the Juke box. See how far you can get at one player mode or show your friends your skill by beating them in multi-player. Pick famous characters like Mario, Luigi, DK, Yoshi, Wario and Peach. Pick different worlds. I like Yoshi's Island and Mario's Castle. There's also Peach's Birthday cake, Luigi's engine room, Wario's Battle, DK's jungle and when you the last world if your really good you can get the Star. There's people to help you along the way like mushroom head and toad and if your not careful you'll run into bowser. The mini-games are the best. GET THIS GAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
+7762,1,What Will You Call Yourself After Buying This?,"Simmons has written some great music, unfortunatley for him (& the Kiss fan) most of it was on Kiss's first 5 albums. If you are a Kiss fan expecting anything remotely close to the ""classic"" (that means with Ace) Kiss sound you will be past disappointed and on the way to thoroughly p$ssed for dropping $$$$ on this. If you are a Diehard KISS fan, I mean Kiss Army material from the 70's stay far far away. If you are interested in hearing what Gene has to offer, my advice is to wait a few more months and go to zShops where there will be plenty available for under $1."
+7763,2,Great and Easy to Use,I love this kettle. It heats quickly and I have used it for over 2 years and it still works perfectly. I heat water at least 2-3 times per day for both tea and coffee. I found it easy to fill and it heats quickly and stays hot. Because of its large size I don't have to fill it every time I use it (I only make 1-2 cups at a time). I don't have kids so I don't have to worry about it being hot after it turns off. I really love this product.
+7764,2,"Not Phony, But Fiona.","I love this cd so much. When I listen to it, it makes me feel relaxed (but not depressed!). She has so much real meaning to the songs, none of them are phony songs about how she wants to get with some guy because he's fine. And she's not what people say she is, she speaks her mind and it speaks the truth. This is the first album I have ever owned where I love every song."
+7765,2,Fantastic Sleeper Hit!,"My son (three-years-old) has started reciting the excellent rhymes from memory. It makes me laugh every time, and I like that I enjoy the book as much as he does. The animals are fun to read in different voices. We discuss the winter weather, what each animal is, and why bears have to sleep so much. My favorite children's book that's not considered a classic."
+7766,1,This one is TERRIBLE!,"They're first 3 albums were so funny my stomach would ache listening but this one is crap. One or two decent calls that really don't even make you laugh hard but they're funny. It sounds like some of these are staged and aren't real calls too. They're living off of their name with this one, don't waste your money!"
+7767,2,Mockingbird Revisited,"This is an especially well done documentary on an important author and her work. Even though Lee declined to be interviewed, the film provides insight into her life and work. Her sister's input was extremely interesting.What I liked best was the authors' interveiws. Hearing them was rather like attending a private seminar with some of the great minds: Lee Smith, Anna Quindlen, etc. The archival film footage and the passages from the novel were apt and well chosen. Aspiring authors could learn from observing the impact of the passages read.If you ever wondered why this novel endures, this video will answer the question. It also makes clear the bravery required to write and publish this work in the turmoil of the 1960s."
+7768,2,"Good, but, not as good as I thought","As a member of ""Americas Test kitchen"", I bought this on their recommendation. It's a fine press, but does not hold the number of cloves, I was led to believe, it did. I actually like the ""Zyliss"" better. ""Test KItchen"" said the finish on the ""Zyliss"" would peel, but mine hasn't. Live and learn."
+7769,1,Piece of junk,"I was given this as a gift. The radio reception is worthless; the tuning scale is inaccurate and my unit could only pick up 1 TV station (there are over 15 in the area that my TV can pick up) and not a single wetaher channel (and my other wetaher radio can pick up at least 2 channels). It doesn't come with an AC adapter nor any method to acquire one and the specificcations for providing your own are difficult to meet. So you can either crank away or use AA batteries, but AC isn't a likely option. Without AC you're not likely yo use the ""alert"" feature as the batteries will drain down long before the next alert sounds (assuming you can actually reliably receive a wetaher station.)Save your money. Maybe the Midland unit works better? At least it runs on AC and will work as an alarm clock so not all will be lost."
+7770,2,USB HUB that does,"I just received two of these to replace an old hub.likes:Powered HUBSeven ports with two ports on top which makes using USB drives easy.Cord minder helps me keep track of my iPhone, micro USB, mini USB and camera USB cables.Two Tone color looks niceStackable is a nice featureRoom for improvementbetter distance between the ports on the back would be niceGoing USB 3.0 would future proofsmaller switching power supply that didn't block other outletsLabels on the power supply that stste the device name and model number"
+7771,1,Wing Chun - Misleading,The release date for this title is INCREDIBLY misleading. The footage looks like it was from the 70's. Very poor quality. I couldn't get more than 5 minutes into this. I felt like I was watching a film strip from elementary school.
+7772,2,Keep Well Pills!,"My husband really likes these vitamins! He works REALLY REALLY LONG Hours! Mostly 12 hours+ a day 7 day work weeks. He swears by them, they help keep him well through his stressful Aeronautics job! He has used them for years! He also takes extra Niacin, Vitamins C,D,E, Fish Oil, & Ginseng. He also eats alot of veggies and fruit, and gets regular rest.He said he would give it a 5 star except for they don't make him into Superman! Only close!"
+7773,1,"Scratchy/rough sheet set, even toddler complains about roughness","I've made the mistake of buying ""100% soft cotton percale"" (210 thread count says OK site) sheets, including two sets from Olive Kids. My son loved the patterns, but despite my washing them with fabric softener and dryer softener sheets, he still complains ""these sheets are scrtachy and hurt me"". Maybe its the printing. They've been washed about 5 times now and I've taken to using a white jersey pillowcase to protect his face. I hope OK upgrades their thread count, but from now on, I'm NEVER buying percale. My son is three and doesn't normally complain about fabric."
+7774,1,Contradiction,"The poems were beautiful and meaningful. But I had to return the book because it was a gift for a missionary friend and since there was an offer in the back of the book to purchase her other book about a witch's flying school, I felt this was not appropriate. I don't believe a person who is writing Christian poetry should also be writing about witchcraft, no matter how lighthearted the book may be."
+7775,2,Eureka 96B a Good Buy,"I am overrall pleased with the purchase. The unit is not too noisy, the suction is good and I like the rotary brush that can be activated for carpeting. After each vacuuming, I'm surprised at how much it picks up....we have 3 cats. My only suggestion for new buyers is for them to purchase a second battery...the original one lasts about 20 minutes or so and I don't charge it until it's fully drained due to the memory retention effect of Nickel Cadmium batteries."
+7776,2,Extra Cast Members Destroy a Good Thing,"Any die-hard Patridge Family Fan, as my son and I are, have to have the fourth season to complete the library. But, as with all sit-coms, it seems that they start messing around with the formula that works and end up with a jump the shark scenario. In this case, the shark is a annoying singing neighbor child in the form of Ricky Segall. At the end of every episode, he comes over to the Partridge House to sing a song. YUCK!!!!! Some people may find this extremely cute (the montage of the Partridges find them smiling happily and laughing) but I am not one. He destroys the show for me and I find myself fast-forwarding over these parts. Other than that, they are great. Keith is in college, Reuben has a moustache, Laurie is still as socially aware as always, and Shirley is simply fabulous. Not as good as the others because of the addition of Ricky but still great."
+7777,2,This is her best CD ever!,"This is a wonderful CD! I loved ""It's All Coming Back to Me Now"", I was crying during ""Fly"", and my favorite was ""Call the Man""! The true beauty really comes out in this CD. If you like Celine Dion you have to own it!"
+7778,1,Disappointed me,"Like reviewer Michael White before me, I found little insight into modern terrorism here and, although Conrad's writing style is always enjoyable, I found the story unsatisfying. The ""terrorists"" in this story are somewhat humorously portrayed as vain, self-absorbed toothless tigers and it's more a story about one man's personal crisis. I didn't much care for the ending and although I read somewhere about this novel having an amazingly suspenseful climax, I must have missed it because I found it predictable and even slightly boring. I've loved the other Conrads I've read, but cannot really recommend this one."
+7779,1,WHAT HAPPENED?,"Dissapointing.....very very disappointing... From what was once a magnificent melodic metal band has now joined the force of nu-metal. What is this world of music coming to? This cd is complete trash compared to early works such as colony, jester race, amd lunar strain. I mean it's complete trash anyway.REAL metal fans stay far... far away from this cd. right hand man lives."
+7780,2,Definitely a good workout,"I purchased this dvd for a good workout and I believe it gives a decent one. It's a good time frame, too, at @40 min. Granted, it's not a DVD for someone who wants a really challenging workout, but it definitely gets the job done."
+7781,2,we're off to see the wizard,the only freaking reason the people who gave this album one star is that they haven't felt the power of OZ. There's no place like home.
+7782,2,No one could have done a better job as Anakin!,"Although some people said that this movie was bad, I disagree.I don't normally like Star Wars but this was a exception. I saw it with a few friends expecting to come out of the theatures anoyed. But I came out of the theatures loving it! Although some of the love scences were kind of cheesy, the acting was great! Hayden Christensen really stood out. I don,t think anyone could have done that role better. Natilie Potman did a good job too. But not as good as Hayden Christensen. Ewan McGregor and Samuel LJackson also were amazing. Because Attack of the Clones was so good, I might evening see the next one. As long as Hayden Christensen is in it, there is a chance!"
+7783,2,"Good book about flying in the most exclusive ""club"".",This is a very good book on what it takes to fly for the Israeli air force and fight against arab terrorist in the skies.Highly recommended
+7784,1,What the hell?,"This album is supposed to be with the ranks of Rage and 311? These guys stink, bottom line."
+7785,1,Didn't mind the tone but the science is flimsy,"This was an impulse buy I bought because I liked the ""in your face"" tone the authors took. What I didn't like was that it doesn't state that the diet is vegan anywhere on the front flap or back synopsis. I would have saved my money. I'm not anti-vegan (several friends and family are dedicated vegans) but it isn't for me. I do take exception to the book's weak science, unsubstantiated rumors and outdated conspiracy theories that have, quite simply, been discounted years ago. Veganism has many benefits but please, do your own research, be prepared to devote considerable time to devising a healthy, balanced diet and, as with any diet, check with your medical professional to make sure you don't have any medical conditions that contraindicate veganism before adopting the lifestyle. My vegan loved ones spend considerable time cooking and much more on groceries than I. Eating out and social gatherings can be tough, too."
+7786,1,Releases A LOT of electromagnetic radiation,"I love the sound of this product. However, I am giving it one star because it releases A LOT of electromagnetic radiation. I use a Gauss meter to measure electromagnetic radiation for all my electrical objects -- especially the ones I sleep next to for many hours.I measured the Marpac Sleepmate and was atonished to see the meter go off the charts. I thought maybe I had a defective sound machine so I checked another Marpac Sleepmate and found the same problem. I have an electronic (non mechanical) sound machine (Sound Oasis) and it showed very little electromagnetic radiation.I prefer the sound and the quality of the Marpac to the Sound Oasis, but the amount of radiation is just too high to justify its use for so many hours at night."
+7787,2,Endearing Tale of a Minstrel and His Favorite Pet,"Rosemary Sutcliff is a superb writer, she has taken many of the ancient classics like the Iliad and Odyssey and brought them to a child level without losing the content and poetry of the stories.Here, she has written a book for elementary age children and like always had made it a very well told tale.The minstrel's dragon pup is stolen from him one night at an inn and a long time later he finds his dragon at a king's menagerie and he wants the dragon back without incurring the wrath of the king. This story is endearing and any child will relate to the relationship between a favored pet and a young boy.The illustrations, as in all her books, are excellent. Rosemary Sutcliff manages to entertain the adult reading aloud as well as the child, and that makes for a very good children's book."
+7788,2,this book ruled,i read this book in fifth grade and it rocked i know thaat i remember it i wish i could get it again and it's worth investing time because of it's suspenseful nature and inventive writing
+7789,1,Admit it. You want to be fooled. Don't you.,"So. Because ""the local media reported more than 1,000 UFO sightings over the inundated shoreline"" following the 2011 tsunami, that deserved serious speculation that the sightings had anything to do with extraterrestrials. Fine. If I were one of this series' producers, I too would have entertained and offered those thoughts; how else would I have profited (much less have gotten my pilot episode financed at all) if I had offered more likely explanations for what may be observed during and following natural events, such as - in the case of the tsunami - the UFOs actually being the likely unprecedented number of news media and rescue team aircraft that were sent aloft to investigate the disaster sites. Plain and reasonable answers are SO boring... and unprofitable."
+7790,1,DOESN'T WORK ON MODERN MAC's,This product is incompatible with the current Intel based Macintosh systems / Mac OSX Leopard. A complete waste of money - the product description should have specified what Mac OS versions its compatible with.
+7791,2,Fun and Funny all over again...magical and silly,Read this to my daughter many years ago ~ one of her favorites. Now reading to grandkids and it's just as fun and funny all over again. A real favorite no matter what your age.
+7792,1,For people with straight hair.,"I have tried two bottles of this stuff over the past couple years...and it frankly isn't worth the money.I hate John Frieda's products in general, but this one really sucks. When you put the product on your fingers and rub, it has this weird texture. It does nothing good for my thick, wavy hair. I have tried with wet hair, dry hair, both! It either does nothing or makes my hair look greasy and awkwardly flat in some areas and poofy in the others.DO NOT RECOMMEND."
+7793,1,Dissatisfied,I am not happy with this purchase. Coffe pot not made well. Inside basket and stem were bent top of pot had rough spot on the inside which cut my finger and the lid does not fit snug on the pot. Put it right back in the box. Want to return it but I don't know where I should send it back . Amazon or the company who made it. Wasted my money!!! Although I have ordered numerous items through amazon and never had a problem.
+7794,1,Not a good choice.`,We have been using this for a few weeks now. It takes too much time to throw any heat at all. We are using it in a fairly small room. It stopped working two times now. We tried to plug it in later and it did come back on but we are worried it is going to stop working altogether. We are planning on sending it back.
+7795,1,"nope, not what you think it is.","This movie was completely and utterly stupid. I rented it at a Hollywood Video and was expecting a good bad b movie, but all i got was a bad b movie. If i remember it right, a guy watches a tv program and notices he can read minds, then as he continues to watch it, he can cause things to move and so on. His friend is a total nerd, and in the middle of the movie gets turned into a dog boy, what? Then he almost chops his friends fingers off with a paper cuter. At the end of the movie, the guys head gets enormus and shoots out pus and goo in a bathroom scene. With his big head, he starts chasing his girlfriend and then, when you least expected it, his head explodes and a midget, claymation monster comes out and starts running around, then the girlfriend zaps it."
+7796,1,don't waste your time with this product,"I have great Dell 2XXX series machine. EVERY other product plugs into USB and works flawlessly. This one does not. Tech support was waste of time. Said to update Dell USB drivers. Already did. Device is NOT certified by Microsoft nor are the Hauppauge Drivers! Power on the unit (straight out of box) was unreliable. Power Light would fail 90% of time I plugged it in (during ALL those resets tech support tried to walk me through). In a day and age of plug and play and USB2 gear, this product is a joke. Please don't waste your time with it. Install software even thought this was a PCI bus internal! a real mess."
+7797,2,Great Source for Natural Treatments!,"I have purchased about eight copies of this book because someone is always asking if they can borrow mine. I am down to only one of my own now :).This is one of the last books written that still has some realistic natural advice. So many books now are sterilized reading because the authors don't want to get in trouble with the powers-that-be - the advice in many newer books is somewhat feeble.I have used this book for countless remedies in my family. Often, this book had the answer when other, more traditional, sources did not. I believe in using this book as a complement to regular medical care. Always seek medical advice when you are dealing with a potentially serious issue, but a book like this is very helpful to have in your home, especially for common complaints (like eczema, acne, yeast infections, annoying coughs, and hundreds more."
+7798,2,Making the Civil War Real,"I loved this book. It is the best one I have ever read for giving a feeling of what life was like for the average soldier in the Civil War. More than any other book, this one really gave me an understanding of the tremendous sacrifice required and I cried through most of the last sections of the book which is pretty rare for non-fiction reading, for me. Really good history books are hard to find and this one is superb!"
+7799,2,Love them,"My husband love his short. He can't wait to go on vaction he loves the color and want me to buy more, thank you"
+7800,1,No Longer Works!!,"This player worked great when I first got it, however, the latest blu-ray dvd's will not play! Pirates of the Caribean, 3:10 to Yuma, and any other new disk. The new firmware upgrade didn't help at all. I suggest buying a PS3. Stay away from this player!"
+7801,1,Please benefit from my pain and stay away from this book,"I have a record of straight As in every undergrad math course there is, and some graduate ones too. I am back in school as a PhD candidate, and find this book among the worst I have seen on the topic. The author's explanation of concepts are poor or nonexistent, and the examples skip steps and do not provide the student the opportunity to learn incrementally. I have reviewed several books on the subject now, and I recommend checking out Prob & Stats for Engineers and Scientists by Walpole and Meyers, 6th Edition. It's crystal clear, consistent and is saving my degree program!"
+7802,2,Encyclopedic and highly readable book on Special Functions,"This is one of the best books on Mathematics I have read recently;reading it gave me pleasure similar to I had felt while reading classics such as Hardy's Pure Mathematics and Titchmarsh's Theory of Functions about 30 years ago. Starting with a thorough and encyclopedic treatment of Gamma Functions , the book develops, rightly, the thesis of grandeur and ubiquitousness of Hypergeometric Functions,to then cover some of the most important special functions known today. And the beauty lies in precise,to the point, yet historically complete and 'multi-angled' as well as rigourous treatment of every topic covered, with a large number of exercises of nontrivial nature dealing successfully with details which probably could not be included in the main text because of desire to keep the size of the book within reasonable limits. Nonetheless, the authors have delightfully and almost magically been able to cover a lot of ground in a mere 600 odd pages."
+7803,2,Price was right and the shipping was fast too.,"This book was a gift so I didn't get to really view it. From what I could see, it was in great shape. Thanks!"
+7804,2,A Chance to Look at Everything Again in More Detail!,"We love museums and have been to the Vatican Museums several times. We also live in a very isolated place and are unable to visit museums locally as there are none anywhere near our home. For both reasons, we have enjoyed this DVD very much. It has allowed us to walk the halls of the Vatican Museums again with a guide and be reminded of the many things we have forgotten. It also gives us a chance to satisfy our desire to explore some breathtaking human-created culture even when we are unable to leave our beautiful mountains!"
+7805,2,I haven't gotten this toy but it sounds good,To all the reviews that I read this sounds exelent but it has some minor flaws. Here is the flaws:1:you can get a very bad cut2:you can rip your cards3:it can only hold a limited ammount of cards in the deck zone and the graveyardwell thats it. if these flaws are too bad you dont need to buy it.Bye
+7806,2,The best!,"Best accessory I bought for my Nike+. After banging my head wondering why Nike wouldn't just give us all a break and put two loops on the sensor so you could put it through your laces, I found this on Amazon...thank goodness!! Just as accurate as my Nike+ shoes, and in one case even more so.Don't think that a shoe wallet compares to this. I assure you it does NOT. I used a pretty snug one with my sensor and it was all over the place with pace/distance. Do it right the first time and get this. Thank you Marware for coming through!!!"
+7807,2,great movie,"This is a great movie to watch. If you like happy endings, don't watch the alternate ending, it sucks....(just didn't like how it ended) I like happy endings"
+7808,2,Surfing the trends,Hazel is right on with this book. Global markets are here and this market place will only become larger as the time marches on. Diversity and ethical business practices will be the esentials elements of any successful organization of the future.
+7809,1,very quirky!,hmmm not sure how i ended up with this album but somehow i have it...do i like it?not really... it's quirky... i guess it's one of the few album's that i have in my collection that can be called quirky... i guess that's not my thing...i can't really give this album justice... I'm not a big emo fan and not a big electronic fan... unless it's somethings really special... like The New Deal... and this album is nothing special...sometimes hearing Tannis Kristanjson's voice perks me up... like coffee... she has the cutest voice that just pops over these songs... and Ari Katz (from Jade Tree's Lifetime) is her counterpart... just bubbly as can be...the thing that annoys me the most about the album is not having a clue what the singers are singing... i pretty much have to guess because i can't find the lyrics on the web...the whole album is pretty much a drag... i say save your money... but you most likely wont even be able to find this...hey... take my copy!1 star out of 5
+7810,1,The worst book I've ever read,"This book is poorly done and isn't worth the paper it's printed on. The number of grammatical errors and typos in the book is beyond belief. The book lacks any kind of structure and the author more or less rambles incoherently half of the time. The other half he is trying (unsuccessfully) to convince the reader that this isn't a get rich quick scheme. This book is as close as you can get to reading an infomercial. There is little in the way of useful information and all of that can be found for free on the internet (particularly on ebay). If you want a good book about selling online, get Stephen Windwalker's The Complete Guide to Bookselling At Amazon's Marketplace and Other Online Site. It deals with books, but the knowledge he relates is practical and could be applied to nearly anything besides books."
+7811,2,La faiblesse du maillon humain,"En lisant ce livre de Mitnick, on comprend bien que l'insécurité informatique sera toujours d'actualité tant que les intervenants en charge de la protection de nos machines se focaliseront uniquement sur le volet matériel et logiciel. a quoi bon mettre des barrières si un utilisateur communique ses mots de passe par téléphone ? c'est ce qu'a bien compris Alain STEVENS, qui nous montre dans le Guide du Cyberdétective (chiron Editions, ISBN 2702707831) que des recettes de social engineering sont disponibles en libre accès sur le net."
+7812,1,Biased and broad,"As others have stated, this book is very broad on all topics. It's and introduction to psychology book, which is why I am very dissapointed to be using it at this level! I felt some of the studies they refference may have been warped, to sound how they wanted it to sound. I was also extremely dissapointed with how poorly they covered controversial topics. The book was obviously biased (see the abortion chapter)and didn't teach me anything I didn't already know. It comes with a cd, which I couldn't get to work on any of my computers.This would be a good book for intro Psych classes."
+7813,1,Read With Me DVD - too slow to respond,"I purchased this for my 5 and 3 yr old daughters - it took some patience to set up, but finally we were ready to play. Unfortunately, when playing the games on it and you press the buttons to answer the questions, it takes A LONG time for the program to respond - my daughter was very agitated with the controller and the fact that it was just sitting there - then FINALLY after 25 seconds, it responded by saying ""Correct"" - way too much patience expected for a 5 yr old. Fisher Price told me that is just how it works - we are sending it back to them for a voucher for other FP products..."
+7814,1,Handel: Messiah (King's College Choir),"I would like to report exactly the same problem ""Bob North"" reported in his review. The named Blu-ray disc is not fully supported by neither my Panasonic blu-ray disc player Model DMP-BD35 nor my Philips BDP5005. My blu-ray disc players do playback the music from the disc but no video pictures are shown. Obviously, this is not the problem of the players (Bob North's Sony or my Panasonic and Philips) but that of the disc that claims to be ""designed for worldwide playback."" It is hoped that the Dutch producer of the disc take note of our problems and submit their response as soon as possible."
+7815,2,Very Intense Hip-Hop Accomplishment,"Common is the illest.. you have to hear this for yourself.. He returns [as usual] with his sick, thick beats, and cunning rhymes. The messages on this cut are out of this world.. You just have to experience it to understand. A true Hip-Hop extravaganza."
+7816,2,Really educational and interesting,"A true and beautiful marriage between chemistry and cooking, you will truly enjoy the answers found in this book. From types of pans to how microwaves work, this book explains areas that could be very boring in a highly engaging way.I highly recommend this book to anyone who likes chemistry and is interested in learning about which of those cooking lessons from your mom are actually true . I have had great success as a gift."
+7817,2,Classic,This is a classic movie and a good turn on the Amityville series. Not the best in the franchise by far but a classic non-the-less.
+7818,1,Idk if they are worth the price,I bought them for parkour training shoes. First 20 min I was training I tried 2 cats and a few precisions. Well that ate the bottom up fast. I quickly put on my ko and was happy again. But by then the bottom has about 2/3 left on it. And the grip was horrible and felt like I was just sliding down the wall. When I got then they were tied around each other which made the bottom very rounded. This made it very weird compared to barefoot which is why I got them to be close to barefoot training.Not if your just freerunning or actually use them for what they are made for I'm sure they are a decent shoe. But for parkour they are completely crap.
+7819,1,Nice album.... mastered from vinyl,"This is quite a nice album. Tasteful playing from Davey and all those present at the sessions. Unfortunately, the album is mastered from vinyl source material. It's pretty clean vinyl, but there is distracting sound in spots."
+7820,2,"Just as good as other ""What to Expect"" books","You can't go wrong with the ""What to expect"" books, I have found. I used the first one, ""What to expect the first year,"" throughout my son's first year. It's such an awesome reference to have on hand. Although I haven't needed to use this one as much -- he gets sick less frequently now, whenever I do have an issue, such as a rash on his neck, or dry skin on his legs, or vaccine-related concerns, this is a great place to refer. It's also come in handy when I need help in the middle of the night and don't think it's necessarily an emergency per se."
+7821,1,Like an echo - A weaker version of the original stuff,"It's a sad comment on the state of the music scene today that this is one of the best albums of the year, which it is. There are a couple of catchy tunes, but some dull instrumentation and very lame lyrics."
+7822,1,disappointed,"This memory card would not work. Contacted the seller with this issue but got no help. Not even an apology for defective card, Just some type of excuse for what may have occurred. We do A LOT of shopping on Amazon.com and this is the first me I have EVER had a company not take responsibility for a mistake."
+7823,2,Trance that will grab hold of U!,"Tracklisting for Ayla Part II (maxi single):1) Radio Mix (3:20)2) Extended Mix (6:50)3) Club Mix (7:50)4) Atmosphere Mix (6:43)This is a great trance/dance song. If you like music that will sweep you away with a hard beat, then this is for you. This song is hot in Miami right now, and will soon take over dance floors everywhere. Pick it up today!"
+7824,1,Bad Choice,"It fell apart within days ... it makes a grinding noise, wobbles and not at all steady. I called up the Customer Service, but the solutions they provided were temporary (worked for 2 min, then the noise started again !!). There is some serious design flaw in this product. I have used ellipticals many other places, but this one is the worst among the lot. Not worth buying !!!"
+7825,1,What was I supposed to get out of it,"We got this from set of our parents who said it was one of the best books they read. With that hearty recommendation we jumped in and read in bed in turns (evenings, Sunday afternoons). We talked about the first couple of chapters and were trying to figure out why we were given the book. The more we read the more confused we were and even though we skimmed the rest of the book, we quit after about page 50. I just have to presume that if this book is meant to heal relationships then our relationship as a married couple is pretty good because we had trouble finding application to any of it. Granted, we don't have teenagers yet! To those who read this who have read the book and want to give it as a gift, think twice about what you're conveying when you think of giving it as a gift to someone you love. (They may think you gave it to them because ""they have issues"".)"
+7826,2,And then there were none,"I had to read and then there were none for my honors english class last month, and i didn't think i would like it, since i never like books people make me read, well i really got into it, and i couldn't put it down, once the people started dying, and you didn't know who the killer was, it was just kinda freaky. Then once i found out who the killer was i was like no way...he seemed sane in the book, i mean heck he even died, and then when i read the letter he wrote to the police it was just like...dude anyone could do that! so yeah, but i really did like it, and i might go checkout some more of her books because i liked that one soooo much!"
+7827,2,Great Bag.,"I use this bag for my 13"" Macbook Pro. It fits in this bag like a glove, the bag looks decent, and holds all my stuff, including my school folders. Great overall bag for someone looking for a bag capable of handling multiple requirements."
+7828,2,No one does the right thing,"This is a stone classic that explores the dynamic of race relations, finally, inevitably, exploding into an incident quite like real life in New York. Lee makes Bed-Stuy look almost inviting here, shooting his sets in a golden reddish glow, and the frayed brownstone apartments in colorful hues, all against a classic hiphop soundtrack. Moments when real humans would have exploded are made to seem a little unreal here when only heated words are exchanged, but not blows. The Italian pizza shop owners are quite realistic, even if their shop is way more quaint and clean that it would probably be in real life. This is a stylized version of reality. The late 80s haircuts are a hoot, as are the boomboxes, pay phones and Flashdance clothing styles. When Mooky turns on his employer and tosses a trash can through the window during a riot is the pivotal moment in the film. Was this the right thing to do? That's the question. There is more than one answer. Watch."
+7829,2,A great sequel,"The sequel to the first, Hungry Eyes, is almost as good as the first. It's addictive, thrilling, and well written. The characters are strong and easily latched on to (except Shara gets on my nerves a little at times.) A lot happens, and the ending was an incredible finish. An excellent sequel to Hungry Eyes, if you were left wanting more -- this is a great runner up. Even as a stand alone book, Eyes of Prey is a great read with a multitude of social commentaries."
+7830,1,Terrible,"It is plane to see that this album deserves nothing more than a 1 out of 5 stars, i cant find one good song on it, i wasted my money on this one, i hope you dont waste yours.Dont think i hate nas, i rate illmatic, it was written and i am... all 5 out of 5, and stillmatic 4 out of 5, but nastradamus is not worth it."
+7831,1,Main character is not believable,"The story line is a good one. The characters, especially Bess could not exist in the real world--someone would have throttled her at first mouth opening. People just do not speak as these characters do."
+7832,2,Expedition's best model yet,"I purchased this watch a few weeks ago to replace an old Expedition i lost. Im a soldier in Afghanistan right now so this is actually the third Expedition watch i go through since ive been in Country due to the dirt and sweat it endures. So far this is my favorite. The one i had before i found to be too slim and was difficult to see the numbers but this one is a perfect size, not too big and not too small and has the glow in the dark feature which i love. not to mention it matches my Camouflage, and seems it will last longer than the older thinner and flimsier ones ive owned in the past. Definitely a good buy."
+7833,2,Great Deal,I read this book and is practicing almost daily. I love the lessons it offered. I will recommend this book to someone that want's to be a singer. I'm just doing it for practice.
+7834,2,Nice clean taste,"This coconut water is nice and straight forward. No juice added, so just plain coconut flavor. It tastes natural, not chemical enhanced, not too salty, not too sweet. No aftertaste like some others."
+7835,1,hai convertible flat iron,i really didnt like this flat iron. it doesnt get hot enough. i had a rusk flat iron berfore and that 1 is way better!
+7836,2,ARE A HUNDRED STARS AN OPTION?,BOB SEGER IS ONE OF THE BEST SINGERS IN THE ROCK MUSIC INDUSTRY.HE CUT SEVERAL GREAT ALBUMS AND THIS COMPILATION FEATURES SOME OF HIS BEST SONGS.VERY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
+7837,2,Simple solution to unwanted barking,"I have a 13lb Shih tzu who I take to work with me. He is not a big barker but occassionally will start to bark when I leave him at my desk to make copies etc. I tried this collar on him and he barked twice before deciding it wasnt worth it. I'm so grateful that this product was able to solve my issue easily and painlessly. Recommend for the occasional nuisance barking. I will say it is a little large for his small size, but it does not seem to prevent him from relaxing/laying down, chewing on his bully. :)"
+7838,1,"Despicable, Disgusting and Disturbing","I rented this movie because it had an all-star cast of actors that I had enjoyed seeing in other movies. In particular, I had just seen 'Broadcast News' again with Holly Hunter, and was anxious to see her performance here.But this movie is completely twisted--sick beyond belief. I am shocked that these stars would have ever agreed to be in the flick. What a 'downer' for their respective careers. If I was a Movie Cop, I would have all these people arrested and thrown in jail for putting out such indiscribable trash!Do yourself a favor, and don't waste your time on this one."
+7839,2,Texas slice of life,"Set in a rural Texas town near the end of WW I, the flu epidemic of that year is raging. The movie attempts to capture, in great detail, the tribulations of a family at this period of time: the war in Europe, the influenza, and their everyday routines. Death seems everywhere. A great deal of trouble went into getting the details of the setting absolutely authentic. It's a poignant movie, and we can identify and feel for the characters: the husband (William Converse-Roberts) and wife (Hallie Foote) who lose their 8-month-old child to the flu, and the 17-year-old brother (Matthew Broderick) who wants nothing but to go fight in Europe before it's all over. A very real slice of life, with few, if any, of the Hollywood conventions one might expect. Written by Horton Foote. Worth a watch."
+7840,1,Superior Bibles to this are available,"Pages and cover are thin. Ribbon markers are skinny. Font and singlecolumn text are delightful, which is the reason for my purcahse.Some useful ministerial information in the back is enjoyable reading.I do not prefer this translation to KJV, NKJV, ESV or NASB."
+7841,1,If you like torn paper this is the way to go!,"Apparently Savage has the worst quality control ever. Product arrived with several tears that went over 6ft into roll. With the packaging still perfectly intact, so someone at savage doesn't mind selling damaged goods as new. So poor quality control and horrible customer service leave me stuck with 4/5ths of what I paid for. Ive done a lot of research online and it arriving horribly torn is very very common!!!"
+7842,2,Power of One continues,"The prospect of reading 900 plus pages was a daunting task but one which became progressively easier as I became engrossed in the book. Courtenays strength lies in his vivid use of words. Powerful always comes to mind when I think of him as an author.As with The Power of One it does not pay to consider the likelihood of the plot too deeply. We all need a hero "" which is what fiction is all about. Like previous comments, two things grated: namely rehashing the Power of One plot for new readers and the lack of continuity at times where the flow did not seem to be there. Both detracted from the book.That said, it was a very good read and one I wouldnt have wanted to miss."
+7843,2,Excellent compilation of readings for economics of the firm,"All the information you need and the appropiate readings are here in this book, which can be very usefull for the study of the economics of a firm and many other topics in business economics. Worth a look!"
+7844,1,Very Disappointed,"With all the great reviews, I thought once again I would try something to help my nails grow. I applied the cream 3 to 4 times a day. I even took my polish off, hoping that would help. My nails are now more of a mess than when I started. I am truly disappointed."
+7845,1,COULD BREAK INTO PIECES --> CHOKING HAZARD !!,Other 1* or 2* reviews are correct. This products is a choking hazard itself.These biscuits shouldn't even be given to babies. My nephew is 9 months old and according to the description should be able to try these biscuits. He is starting to grab stuff and eat more solid foods.My nephew had one and the biscuit broke off. Lucky he was able to cough it out himself. NOT recommended for babies.I don't understand why it would even be approved to be on the market for babies. It's more like an adult biscuit.
+7846,2,The Rockford Files,"The kind of show they can't make anymore. That rare group like Picket Fences, Hill Street Blues, and Wiseguy. The Rockford Files was special."
+7847,2,airbed,"I purchased the Intex queen airbed for company to sleep on during a summer visit.Everyone said they slept quite comfortabley during the time of their stay.We found the airbed easy to pump up, and I found the auto deflation feature to be invaluable.All in all I think i made a good decision to purchase the Intex airbed."
+7848,2,Fifty Hikes in Northern Maine,"My family and I used this book for years. We loved hiking in Maine and glad to see people believe in ""North of Portland"". A great family book!"
+7849,2,I already have the movie. Bought it from the mall. And I have to say its the best Inuyasha movie ever!!!!!,The third Inuyasha movie is the best. It has his father in it and everything. And the moment we've been waiting for the clash of the brothers Inuyasha versus Shashomarru. This movie is so amazing any Inuyasha fan or Anime fan should buy this movie its worth the money. But they could've giving the DVD a lot more special features. But it has a pretty good amount not the good amount that I was expecting anyways the movie is awsome its well worth the money. Totosai is so halarious in this movie. Anyways buy this movie I had no regrets buying this movie for 24$ at the mall. Get this movie its awsome!!!!
+7850,2,A great learning tool,We bought this for our 5 year old son because he was having trouble writing his letters. The smartboard has really made writing his letters fun. It lets the kids know when they have written the letter or number correctly. His writing skills have really improved by using this toy. I would recommend this toy to any parent that wants their son/daughter to have a tool for learning their letters and numbers. Good Product!
+7851,1,We must have gotten a faulty set,"We love snap circuits, and this was a nice addition to our set, with the exception that it didn't work. Not a single project worked so we are sending it back. I am not willing to try it again. I will move on to a different motion sensor item. I still however recommend the snap circuits, just not this set."
+7852,2,I give it a 4,"Meh.. the sub is alright. It reaches the lows, but its not as loud as everyone hyped it up to be. If i turn up the low pass filter to higher frequencies, the higher frequencies get louder, but then the low frequencies aren't as loud as i would like. It helps my system have a fuller sound overall, but its not as ground shaking as I would have liked, especially for its size. Then again, it could be my set up."
+7853,1,Broken Upon Arrival,"The automatic wrench was broken and not functioning appropriately upon delivery. To deal with delivered malfunctioning products, is a waste of money and most importantly time!!"
+7854,2,Wouldn't Want to Be Them!,"I found this book enlightening, easy-to-read, and quick to finish. It starts off with Henry as quite the affable young man, and even handsome. He is a catch for any lady, especially Princess Catherine, his first wife, but all of that changes as the years progress and he becomes more and more paranoid. In fact, as the book went on I found myself wondering why no one ever tried to assassinate him. He was a threat to powerful nobles, to his wives, to former friends... I felt terribly sorry for all of his wives, but especially Catherine."
+7855,1,Fragile,Glass got scratched after nearly 4 months of using it still love the materials used as well as the ultra low weight
+7856,2,Great book,"Very informative book. Easy to read and understand. Covers herbs,oils,massage, aromatherapy, homeopathy, bach flowers. Pictures of massage techniques are very easy to understand and follow. The herb section tells you how to prepare and how much to give. The Bach flower section explains the use for the horse and the rider."
+7857,2,"Good Product, But there is a TIRE issue","This was a nice (and less expensive) alternative for our 6 yr. old w/special needs-to be able to get on & off of without falling (he's physically uncoordinated)-low to the ground and he can pedal pretty easily. It was significantly less than the special needs tricycles we priced, and his normal functioning 4 year old brother has a blast on it-making freakishly fast turns on wood floors inside(Ha!) It is pretty wide, though, so we insist he slows down around corners-lots of scrapes on our cabinetry as he circles the kitchen island, etc.! (The back tire spokes scrape things.)BUT the one thing I'd agree w/others on is that the back tire went flat about a week or so after we got it at Xmas, so we called the company purchased from & they sent us 2 replacement tubes (custom type size) within 5 days or so at no charge. They were apologetic & said these were from a diff. manufacturer & should be fine. So far so good!"
+7858,1,"WHAT GREAT ""NEW"" IDEAS (in caps lock)","-Wow, this book is the best thing since the most powerfull men in the media started complaining about who controls the media.-The narcissism is addicting!-Mr. O'Reilly's grade is actually less than one star."
+7859,1,Boring.,What happened with this book? From the 1st book till the 9th it was really good but here there's rarely any action at all. I was expecting better from this series.
+7860,1,the movie is NOT the book!,"After reading the book, this movie was an utter disappointment. If you liked the book, which is one of my top 5, skip the movie. You'll hate it."
+7861,2,Siegfried Norse style,"This is not the best Viking Saga I've read but it is pretty good. It is almost essential reading (if you're into understanding Viking culture). At times the story is confusing, because there are so many actors in this drama. There are some rather shocking/grisly bits in it, but on the whole it is one of those timeless stories, and so much better than ""Lord of the Rings"" (which was obviously inspired by this Saga). I will read it again - of that I am quite sure."
+7862,1,One Hospitals view,"I have read about half of this book before I got so fed up that I put it down. It is focused on two hospitals that merged. One of the hospitals was a stellar nurse oriented hospital, the other more money saving oriented. It discussed in depth the problems that came up between the two. Although these two hospitals may show what is happening in the industry, it felt more like an internal study of the merger of these hospitals rather than a commentary on the ""Dismantling of Nursing"". Very disappointed. Waste of money."
+7863,2,One for the diehard fans,"As a late comer to OTH I was completely satisified with series 3. It does however not push the boundaries of any existingly relationships in new ways. ""different things"" happen, sure just no real surprises. The cast are talented indeed and they are what make an indulgent pleasure. The DVD box set is excellent for international buyers ( I am Australian ) as we don't get as much information. The extras scenes, gag reel and commentary a good little bonus."
+7864,2,Great Game,This is a great game. It has everything an rpg should and is unique in many ways. Especially the ring of judgement. It has an intriguing story line and is a welcomed change for any rpg gamer.
+7865,2,Heart & Soul,Beautiful album. Listened to these songs when I was younger. Once I had my own job I ordered this album for myself. The Winans...classic.
+7866,1,Just too much!,First it was $11 then $14 now it going to $19. Time to move on. Wash Post here I come.
+7867,1,GOODBYE DEE DEE...,"Brain Drain was the last album to feature Dee Dee Ramone as a member of the band. The band's inner turmoil is evident in what is their second-to-worst album (their prior album, Halfway To Sanity, is the worst). Fortunately, there is still some good songs, including ""I Believe In Miracles,"" ""Punishment Fits The Crime,"" ""Pet Sematary,"" and ""Mery Christmas (I Don't Want To Fight Tonight)."" The album also contains one of the Ramones' best cover songs, ""Palisades Park."" While the Ramones never recorded a terrible record, Brain Drain is not among their best."
+7868,1,"Oh Dear, Oh Dear, Oh Dear...","Yep this film sucks. Saw this at Cannes two years ago and was bored rigid by the whole affair.Whilst the idea is okay, it feels little more than a cheap , poorly made remake of the far better 'The Warriors'.Gordon Alexander (the real star of the film), Brandan Carr, Cecily Faye and Jamie Choo are all superb if all under used where as Chris Jones, Silvio Symac and Shane Steyn (as well as many other great UK action stars) are pushed aside for the less talented Monaghan.What bugged me the most was the over use of sloooooowwwww mooootioooon for EVERY fight.Jobson, former rock icon and solid director in his own right, is well out of his depth here and generally does a really bad job of making a poor film better.Please avoid. It may make them Stop them making pap like this."
+7869,1,"The story is OK, the message is terrible","This could've been done a lot better without the anti-religion bias. I agree with another reviewer that it was just over-the-top. It could've been done once and I might let it slide, but it felt like it was the whole second half of the movie (after his mother dies) and just kept going downhill. Seriously, bad taste."
+7870,2,Awesome Recipes!,"The majority of my recipes come from Dawn Hall's cookbooks and my entire family and friends love the meals I make. They are easy, delicious and healthy! I highly recommend them!"
+7871,2,Nightscenes,I love this CD. I think it is a very interesting mix of new age flavor and old school melody and design. I find it extremely relaxing. Its great for both chilling and thinking but not if you're looking to get pumped up. I gave it only four stars because I felt some of the tracks toward the end of the CD slowed down a bit too much and dragged a bit longer than I wished they would. But this imperfection doesn't take away from the sincereity of emotion the music embodies.
+7872,2,Racing Parker was good!,"I haven't read much of Thoroughbred, but I wanted something to read and I got hooked again becuase of this book. Parker is a wierd kid. About time there was a good(okay) Townsend. Just why did Brad have to come back?! I think that Mrs. Campbell is doing good, and if you read it you find out the nest book is... drumroll... ""On the Track!!!"" Finally, TB's are doing what this series was born to do. And Christina isn't that bad, but she is a little stubborn. Great series and book!"
+7873,1,BORING,every teenage girl should watch this before her first datebefore going to makeout lane don't forget yor diaphramgirlfriend
+7874,1,"Go back to ""More to this Life""","Chapman keeps failing. Well, maybe not him alone. Could be the producers and record execs. Remember ""More to this Life?"" What a great CD. But, then along comes ""Dancing with the Dinosaur"" and other trivial dribbles. This new CD is so plain. Lackluster. Now, Chapman is in my estimation a gifted, talented and humble musician. But, whenever you get the record company and their machines rolling, the artists creativity goes by the wayside.I sure wish that at times we could go back. Put out another album like ""More to this Life"" and others like it.But, truly there is nothing new under the sun.Now, this is tongue-in-cheek, so please take it this way.Samson lost his strength when his hair was cut. Hmmm....Steven! How about growing those locks back!Steven is an incredibly strong talent to be put upon the altar of the machine called the industry."
+7875,2,Better late than never,It just arrive in the last minute but I got it and its in excellent conditions.
+7876,1,Guilty of making trash,"this is horrible, her latest single beat of my heart could make a healthy pig die immediately."
+7877,1,Not the classics I was expecting...,"I grew up in the 70's watching ""whats new Mr. Magoo"" and had no idea ofthis 1960's saturday morning show. In 1984, my older brother had rentedVHS Mr. Magoo classic shorts from the 1940's through the 1950's. Theywere truly the best. I was hoping that this box set from the 60,s wouldhave some of these shorts at least as bonus video to show how Magooevolved. Anyway, I only laughed a few times and these cartoons weremade cheap. The original Waldo was more dimwitted in Those classicshorts. They were a little darker and were made more for adults. I havewatched the first three disk and will not watch anymore I, too, wasupset over the Cholly ""Charley"" voice change. I do, believe it or not,have this 1960's Mr. Magoo Board Game. It must have been reissued in1977 when ""Whats new Mr. Magoo was debuing. I bought it at K-mart andit has most all the character's from the 60's show. If you love any-thing Magoo, then buy this DVD set for your collection. If not, saveyour money."
+7878,1,Terrible RCA product,Cheaply made and range is awful. They cut out anywhere from 3 feet on. Try another brand and you will be much more satisfied.
+7879,2,Short & To The Point !,"Dover Thrift Editions of Charles Dickens Christmas Classic, ""A Christmas Carol"" is short and to the point. My kind of book. The world over knows the premise of Dickens classic but (especially) at this time of year is a story most people will enjoy reading again. The slim 68 pages makes it possible to share this story with a love one in less than an hour. Puts even the most hateful love one in the holiday spirit."
+7880,2,WOW,"When I first started the book, I thought it was boring, but I was determined to finish it. As I got through it...it became so interesting that I couldn't put it down. The only part that was kind of cheesy was how fast Sammy forgave his father. It happened a little too suddenly. But after I was done....I wanted to read it all over again. I can't wait to read Dr. Spark's other books. I recommend this book to everyone, young and old."
+7881,2,Wii Class Controller works fine,"We've not had the best luck with finding the right controller for our Wii. Specifically, the old Gamecube controllers which work with some of the classic Nintendo games. The little toggle switch seems to sieze up and stop working. Luckily, the classic Wii controller doesn't do that, and it can be used with the Nintendo classic games very well. Though I can't say it is 100% perfect, it's certainly the best choice out there."
+7882,2,A Fun Read,"This is book was mentioned by a Pulitzer prize winning author, now a professor, Barry Sigel at an Olli class at University of California, Irvine. It was written before the term ""literary journalism"" was classified as such.Today's standards are different for literary journalism but his view is Old Mr Flood stands apart and is well done. The character is not one person, but a composite and the feel and smells of the fish market are almost palpable. This author knows fish!!A bit of tension ~ the force of growing older, not wanting to miss of day of life."
+7883,2,many uses,I use this to connect to speakers or my tv. It has good quality sound and has good connectors that don't come loose. I have mainly used this with my tv so I can play video games and not have to listen to people trash talk me all the time.
+7884,2,"AWSOME, Game Is Wicked Cool","Great game great controls,4 players, great graphics,can it get any better"
+7885,1,Simplistic,"This book is an array of simplistic information based on cognitive therapy. Instant revelations of one's point of view and correcting it do not a big change in life make, in my opinion. The writer seems to think so.I'm also tired of professional writers starting many sentences with ""But"" when the ""but"" should be connecting one half of a sentence with another, or the two thoughts should be separate sentences, either of which would work well, rather than repeatedly breaking rules of grammar in this way. Where are the proofreaders and editors?"
+7886,2,Guide to Passing the PSI Exam,"Start at the beginning, answer each chapter as you go along, go back and do it again - you will pass the exam. It's great!"
+7887,1,Hurrah for the bad guys,"JLC's engaging use of language kept me reading The Night Manager long after I'd tired of plot and theme that crumbled to nothingness as the pages turned. As an older woman, I clung to Sophie and her vanilla smells and the power attributed to her over Jonathan. The story was interesting for the bad tradecraft and the previous century nonsense with bugs, taps, and intercepted communication, so necessary to the plot, and circumvented in real life. So much could have been done with the ""come to Jesus"" elements or the raw Canadian inset. How could Pine/Thomas have been given a New Zealand identity with no backfill? Women sprinkled the tale and were morally abandonded by JLC, except for Jeds who was plucked Deus ex Machina to breed horses. Loved the Pamanian interlude, though not as satisfying as in Tailor of Panama. Were it not for some overstated sexual situations, the book would be suitable for analysis by high schoolers for its view of morality in the late twentieth century."
+7888,2,"OF THE 3 VOL. SET, THE BEST","The author is not a professional historian. He does not know how to read the sources critically and is unable to select and reject the secondary literature, but he has a beautiful style, and if you're not too concerned with historical accuracy, it is a pleasing introduction to a fascinating subject. DOWN WITH GIBBON!"
+7889,1,This Movie Sucked!!!!,"This was a dumb movie. All I remember was something about a ""pit-bull puppy."" This was a dumb movie. We watched it in San Jose Costa Rica and laughed the whole time. The director and the actors should be shot for filming this movie."
+7890,1,Highly Breakable,"This wiperblade almost lasted two months before breaking. If you want to purchase this product on Amazon, perhaps you should purchase a spare so you can continue to drive your car when your wiper breaks. Unfortunately, I only bought one set of Bosch wiper blades, so my car is currently undriveable until I purchase a replacement blade."
+7891,1,"Call me Agent Decker, but don't call me in for black ops...","I don't know how Patricia Lewin found me. I was a simple grad student in New Mexico studying complex systems and biology. She must've tracked me down through the trail of tutorials and academic papers that I left online using my academic avatar, ""Ethan Decker"".I only studied Tai Chi for a year, but Lewin makes me look much better than I really am. And I don't speak (or think) in so many cliches either--except for when assassins threaten my wife. Then, of course, I want to make them pay!Not particularly erudite, but a perfect post-dissertation page-turner."
+7892,2,Great discovery,"I have all three Cds from this band. i would describe them as a hybrid between Coldplay and U2, although i'm no music critic.The only thing that makes me wander about Boxer Rebellion is WHY aren't they more famous.Great band. Great CD.Buy the other two also."
+7893,2,Myths about all hair types,"I thought the book was very helpful. She kept stressing the importance of a clean scalp and hair. When I was younger, I've always heard the myth about getting a perm will take your hair out, if you have dandruffs that mean that your hair was growing. But now from reading this book, I see that it's all a myth. It's all about keeping your scalp clean and having a positive outlook about the whole thing. And having the right mindset about your hair, a positive outlook, is a must. Some of the basic asked questions about hair was answere in this book. Thanks Lisa!"
+7894,1,TOTAL STUPIDITY,"This is total crap! Christina is given WONDER'S LEGACY , out of WONDER and she says ""Oh I hate this horse,I want this Sterling blah and I want to event it , One of the boringest pastimes in the whole world""If I were given Wonder's Legacy I would be hugging Ashleigh so hard.And I give this book a 1-millionith fraction of a Star.At least Melanie has some sense and thinks drssage is stupid! If this Allison E. And Karen B. are so crazy about dressage and eventing why don't they make their own stupid series. Karen has only written 1 good book in her life, (Samantha's Journey) you'd think she could do better! How could Ashleigh give birth to such a creature!"
+7895,2,Swell!,"Well, this is certainly a refreshing book. The tone is conversational, but the content is technical. However, the book is easy to use as a way to learn ASP. One thing that is a bit of a bother is the reliance on the .DLLs that ship with the book. I didn't have the time to fool around with installing examples and stuff that I can't see myself using or needing. But, you can just skip over these without losing understanding, if you want."
+7896,1,Another Piece of Chinese Junk,"The batteries drop out, and the slide-holder to keep them in is EXTREMEly difficult to put back on. Then the whole thing came apart, broke. Another piece of Chinese-made junk.Cute ingenious design, and I liked it. But I'd be an idiot to buy another."
+7897,2,Cleaning Machine!,This has everything you need to clean your photo sensor on Nkon cameras and Cannon. It also has enough supplies to keep cleaning for some time to come.
+7898,1,Flaslight holder,"This is the first time ive ever given a bad review,but dont bother with this holder.Very light & flimsy.Within a month,the stitching came so loose on the belt loop,I had to stitch it back myself twice,but finally ended up throwing it out.Waste of money."
+7899,2,I Really Like This Watch,I needed an inexpensive watch to wear when I was working outside in the yard or doing other chores. However I also wanted it to not look inexpensive. This watch is just what I was looking for. For less than $20 I got a well made watch that also looks like it cost a lot more.
+7900,2,Easy to Use for Home Finance Records,"We purchased this to keep track of our home budget and our small business accounting. It is easy to use, lets you see where all of your money is going, allows you to forcast your budget surplus and shortfalls. My wife uses this daily and she has no formal training in business or accounting."
+7901,1,I was disappointed...,"I bought this video because of the overwhelmingly positive reviews. However, I thought it was difficult and too high impact for me. Most of the moves were confusing. Hemalayaa makes it look really easy and I'm sure it is...for HER. However, for someone overweight like me, the some of the moves are quite near impossible. The cool down was alright but overall, I wasn't a fan."
+7902,1,"no shirt, no shoes, no thanks","This book targets a specific audience, young and dull-witted. Take some common experiences, invoke a drawl or two to spice things up, serve up on some bathroom fixtures. The reader suffers through countless forgettable events ladled up with the author's special sauce...southern-style conceit. 98% corn pone. Save your money and rent a video, his stage humor works better."
+7903,1,this movie has barely a Pulse....very faint...almost gone,"Pulse stars Madeleine Stowe (Unlawful Entry, Avenging Angelo), Norman Reedus (Blade 2, Gossip, Boondock Saints), Jonathan Rhys-Meyers (upcoming Elvis, Alexander, Velvet Goldmine), Mischa Barton (Tv's The O.C., Lost and Delirious) and Bijou Phillips (Bully, Black & White). Stowe and daughter Barton are on the road...they have a typical daughter/mother spat and Barton winds up being taken away by a group of people, led by bad boy Jonathan Rhys-Meyers and Stowe then goes on a hunt for her daughter. Along the way she encounters a strange towtruck man, played by Norman Reedus. So, Stowe goes off on a rampage to get her daughter back from her kidnappers. Not much pulse in this movie...its faint and can barely feel it. Some good direction, mixed in with a pyshco performance by Jonathan Rhys-Meyers keeps it at bay."
+7904,1,i don't get reasonable results,"We read the directions and practiced, but we are still getting weird results on our (wiggly) kid. Because we don't trust the results with this thermometer, we have to subject the kid to the other thermometer too... (it was a waste of money for us)."
+7905,1,These are horrible.....,"These were expensive.....These are a P. O. S.If you dont know what POS is google it, because I cant say it on amazon. Basically, the layer has an OFFSET. The layers do not match in position. This will give you CRC errors if you have a file which is directly on a layer break, or at the end of the disk. DO NOT BUY, I REPEAT, DO NOT BUY.IM NOT SURE WHY MEMOREX HASNT RECALLED THEIR CRUMMY PRODUCT."
+7906,1,"Disappointing, & too long.","Bought this video thinking it was one that I had saw on cable years ago, was wrong, this movie had quite a bit of excitement in it in the beginning but then wore on & on. Glad for fast foward.... Would not recommend it. IMHO.. Unrealistic ending."
+7907,2,A step up from Shadow Rising,"After a couple of chapters to set the stage, the Rand plotline moves forward at breakneck pace throughout this volume and a number of important events take place (including the biggest mystery of all in this series!). My only complaints were that the Siuan/Min/Leane and Elayne/Nynaeve threads moved too slowly at times. However, the Elayne/Nynaeve thread still had some critical events take place. I truly enjoyed the Rand/Aviendha interaction, as I did Mat resisting the call of battle at first before giving in. The last 100-150 pages of this book are shattering, and really serve as the conclusion to the events from Shadow Rising. While it dips in parts, this is a solid four rated book and really makes you yearn for the next book."
+7908,2,It wasn't in theaters ... why?,"This movie is AMAZING!!! Mira delivers a performance that will floor you. She is utterly fantastic in this film. And Mariah, who was also amazing in GLITTER, is strangley even more fantastic in this movie. Its a smaller role, but her performance is perfect and believable to the point where you go ""She reminds me of ..."" This movie is fantastic. And yet it went straight to DVD and I can NOT figure out why ... this movie deserves to be in theaters. But instead a great movie like this will get no recognition, but KANGAROO JACK is in theaters ... this world boggles my mind."
+7909,1,Dispense Lever failed,"Unlike other low-star reviews, mine worked for awhile before breaking. In my case, the plastic ""dispense"" lever failed when it got fatigued through use. I too had one of the previous versions that worked forever. The new ones are more cheaply made and seem to fail at a higher rate. I'll buy from a seller who will easily accept a return, and I'll keep my receipt. I'm hoping someone builds a competing product that will remind Sunbeam to include some quality in the mix."
+7910,1,product unuseable,"All pills melted into a mass like bread dough. None useable, no separated pills after cutting open bottle. What do we do now?"
+7911,1,This producct is a waste of money,"I bought the charger and charged batteries twice following its instruction for 15 hours. Then, the charger stopped working at all. I contacted Tech B's customer services several times through their website. They don't respond. The company's website only allows us to email them, and there is no info of their phone numbers. I strongly recommend you purchase other chargers, unless you want to burn some $10 extra."
+7912,1,Bad Quality! Doesn't hold the wind!,"It is a good design only if the metal is strong enough to hold the wind. The mild wind knocked down the net, and the metal is so weak and twisted, I am never able to put it back again. The metal has the broken sign. Don't buy it. It doesn't hold the wind. I returned it."
+7913,1,Totally disappointing,"I should know better by now than to buy a whole album on the strength of a single song, but apparently it's going to take more hard lessons like this one to really grind that point home for me. I fell in love with Anggun's version of the song ""Snow On The Sahara"" and found myself frustrated by my inability to download it on iTunes, unless I bought the entire album. The only single version they had was a cover by Sarah Brightman, which was great (Hey, it's Sarah Brightman, so it's not like it's gonna suck, right?) but definitely not the same.Finally, I swallowed my pride and forked over the ten bucks, hoping against hope that the rest of the CD would live up to the promise of that song. In brief: it doesn't. The only song on here that even approaches the haunting beauty of ""Snow On The Sahara"" is ""On The Breath Of An Angel"".I definitely regret this purchase. The music just isn't for me."
+7914,2,bargain kitchen tool.,"It's just like a Microplane(tm): a kitchen version of a wood-rasp. It just plane (pardon the pun) works. But I take issue with the construction. They cut a corner by making the handle hollow. I appreciate the attempt to make the handle larger and more ergonomic, but it should have been solid. The hollowness throws off the balance and feels cheap in the hand. So, aside from feeling like a cheap toy, it zests and grates with the best of them."
+7915,1,Would be good if...,"That guy would stop screaming along with the lyrics. The songs are good, the main vocalist is good...the music itself is great, but the backup singer who sounds like the white cap at a kegger who's trying to sing metallica just HAS to go...or clear his throat. Makes this all but unlistenable, which is a shame."
+7916,2,Awesome!,Season three was awesome. This show is well written and the actors are amazing. This show is a must see!
+7917,2,Our Favorite Children's Movie,"Of course my preschooler loves this whimsical and unusual children's movie, but, I was surprised when my teenage nieces asked for it, too. The characters, voices, music and photos are superb. It's fun and funny and I highly recommend it. The book is excellent, too."
+7918,1,Gourmet Fast Food?,"Wow, this book is great. Only if you want gourmet food. I was hoping this stuff (ingredients) would be easily available, not so. I was looking forward to items I see on hells kitchen and other shows on bbc. Sure, its Gordons best all the time."
+7919,2,Very sturdy,"This drum seat's base is as heavy and sturdy as a cymbal stand. Good quality, it sure beats the old chair we were using before!"
+7920,1,Just release the Extended version and get it over with!!!,"I want the extended version that is why I rated it a 2. They should have just given us the extended version with the option to see the shorted version already on the disks. I will not buy the shorted version on bluray in addition to the extended one later when they finally release it. I already own it on dvd. So I will buy the extended when it is released.STOP MUCKING AROUND and PUT BOTH VERSIONS (original and Extended) IN THE BOX SET. HOW HARD IS THAT????? THE STUDIO SHOULD STOP RIPPING US OFF. JUST MAKE 2 DISCS FOR EACH MOVIE AND PUT THEM IN THE BOX SET.... THAT IS 6 DISCS PEOPLE...IT IS NOT THAT HARD. THAT WAY YOU CAN WATCH WHATEVER VERSION YOU WANT. I REALLY DON""T WANT TO WAIT LIKE 20 YEARS LIKE WE DID FOR BLADE RUNNER."
+7921,2,"It,s fun adorable and the best thing that has come out for littlest pet shop Its SO MUCH FUN","Oh my gosh this is a must for any child of any age cause I,m a 10 year old and I can,t get enough of these toys me and my friend Lauren LOVE these to bits and when the whirl around play ground came out we knew we had to have it I,ve already gotten it but I,m not to open it till Christmas but I,ve been looking at the reveiws and it sounds like its pretty durable so if your children love pets then this is the thing they have a wide selection of pets and more to come! I can,t wait for what they will come up with next there to CUTE!!!!! GET LITTLEST PET SHOP TODAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
+7922,2,What a Voice!,"I purchased this album about three years ago. I had originally heard Jesse on Apollo Theater and was throughly impressed. In a nut shell, the brother can blow! His vocal range and phrasing is incredible. This is hardcore vocals at its BEST! I listen to this CD every chance I get, and have not grown tired. I've turned on a couple of friends, who are turning on there friends, and so on and so on, to the sounds of Jesse Powell. If you enjoy serious singing, Jesse is the man!"
+7923,1,A Biased Negative Biography,"The makers of this historical documentary clearly set out to discredit the life of Robert E. Lee due to the fact that he sided with the South. Every discussion and interpretation of the events in his life were given a negative slant. Clearly the editors carefully picked and chose only those comments the several historians gave in their interveiws that would shine a negative light on Lee. I was truly amazed at the never ending ""punches and blows"" to his reputation that continued non-stop throughout the film. As a long time student of the Civil War, and as a 36 year History teacher, I know that Lee was not a perfect ""marble man."" But, this ""hatchet job"" on Lee can easily be seen as nothing more than a revisionist PBS attempt to take Lee down as a great American historical figure. Although the film's presentation style, and early photographs are well done, I cannot recommend this film to anyone interested in the life of Robert E. Lee."
+7924,2,Best movie I've seen in years...,"This movie was beautifully shot, it made me want to visit Tokyo...A great movie about friendship and soulmates..."
+7925,1,First toy to make my cats flinch,"This is the first and last unreviewed cat toy that I'll buy. I have 2 cats, one is fussy regarding toys the other will usually find amusement in any type of cat toy. When I opened this for him, he was interested and sniffed the mouse. Unfortunately he then batted at it, which causes the toy to bob back and forth - the problem with this is that the metal wire which suspends the toy bounces back and hits him in the face everytime he hits the mouse toy. The wire has the weight and feel of one of those cheap metal coat hangers, not something any cat or human would want landing across the bridge of their nose...The mouse rattles, has an elasticised tail and the body is a hard casing. I'll probably detach the mouse, so they can at least play with it. Oh and the colour of the mouse toy varies, my mouse was orange/yellow - not that relevant to me but worth noting."
+7926,1,Ludicrous,"CD/abridged/Thriller: This was book 18 of the Dr. Alan Gregory series, which I had never heard of. This book read more like a cheesy Patterson book. A bloody body is found dead in a theater and it looks like the killer may actually be a group of people enacting the murder on stage. Some may be watching the murder while masturbating; tho outlandish. Alan is brought to the scene and asked to help the police with a profile. Of course, Alan gets in over his head looking for the murderers. Just....skip it."
+7927,1,Bit of a Drag,"I read this before I read Dracula In Love (which I loved and recommend) because I wanted to be up on the storyline of Mina. The first part was interesting but I basically skimmed more than 50% of end because it was so boring. The endless descriptions and flowery language was tiring to slog through.My impressions:Ladies are Madonnas or whores and being touched by a vampire automatically puts you in the latter category.Good, virtuous men are also perfect physical specimens (eugenics anyone?).Blood transfusions can be done indiscriminately on anyone at anytime with no medical repercussions.That's all I can remember from what I read."
+7928,1,This is no masterpiece.,"After trying various recipes from ""Gone With The Grits,"" I can say that I was not just dissapointed, but also annoyed. Beware! Many of the recipes call for certain amounts of time to cook the dish or certain temperatures to cook at. Well you just about have to be a master chef in order to get some of the recipes to turn out correctly. Many times the dishes were too watery, too thick, burnt, undercooked, and so on. As for the quality of the recipes that turn out right, they are usually on the average side, with the very few exceptions being quite tasty (but loaded with fat and cholesterol). For those that go zealous about grits, you will probably find it acceptable. For those who moderately enjoy grits and are looking for recipes that please the mouth, go elsewhere. Besides the few good recipes in ""Gone With The Grits,"" the only other reason to buy this book would be for the humorous cartoons throughout the book."
+7929,2,very durable,"This is the best frisbee I have found to date, it is very durable and flies well, I like it much better than a hard plastic frisbee- which can get rough on your hands after repeated use and sometimes crack if chewed on. I will buy this again and again if it ever gets worn out which I doubt will happen any time soon."
+7930,1,This car seat is a pain,"I absolutely hate this car seat. First of all, adjusting the straps through the slots and then on baby nearly requires an engineering degree. Secondly, if the seat doesn't click in just right, you can't get the darn thing out of the base. You'll only know that it's not in the base correctly when you try to get the carrier out. This carrier does not fit into shopping carts very well. Although baby sits well in the car, when you try to put the carrier in a shopping cart, your baby looks like it's geting ready to tumble right out of the seat. Lastly, that little sun shade is worthless, it pops out everytime you move the handle. I don't recommend this seat unless you're on a budget."
+7931,2,It would be criminal to cut this series,"I am a big fan of the CSI franchise and since Grissom left Las Vegas this is by far the best of the 3. The story lines are interesting and keep audience attention. I have given the set 5 stars for the scripts and quality of the acting, however, the visual quality of this CBS DVD is not as good as previous series."
+7932,1,WTF.,"I was so excited about these and when I finally got it the cards and booklet were all bent up, I ordered a NEW one too. NOT HAPPY."
+7933,2,awesome supernatural,"I really enjoyed supernatural! Great product, my favorite show. THe DVD's were in great shape and they didn't glitch at all. Kepp it up!"
+7934,2,Best of Linda Howard,"I am a huge Linda Howard fan - I have read everything she has had printed and this is one of hers that is on my keeper shelf! I absolutely loved this book! Romantic thrillers are my favorite kind of book and the hero and heroine are splendid! My dream man? Detective ""Doc"" Cahill!!! Handsdown - my favorite hero of any book I have ever read!! Take charge, cocky, capable, smart - and SEXY!! When I read it, I gave him the looks of actor Gerard Butler!! Dear heavens - if that isn't everything any red blooded woman could ever want! I don't understand any woman not thoroughly enjoying this book!!!"
+7935,1,Roaches love a warm haven like this,"As evidenced by the roach crap on the back of the devices after several months of use, I'd say they're totally ineffective."
+7936,1,McDigital Pseudo Crap.,"(Let me start by saying I mean no offense to Enigma fans. This band was, after all, recommended to me by one of my best former friends.)Enigma is about as enigmatic (and substantial) as a cologne commercial. This album is Goth-tech, McProfound sh** from start to finish. A CD's worth of digi-beat danceteria mega-mix, all schtickily packaged in Gregorian chants, 'gothic' choral pieces, Casio-keyed New Age harmonic vibrations, and the like. In other words disco (Oh, I'm sorry--I mean Electronica!!) wrapped tight in layers of sampled, 'profound' sonic iconography. Enigma seemingly believes (or hopes) that this formula adds up to genuine 'substance'. (It is hard to describe Enigma's music, without a string of apostrophe encased adjectives--the band is psuedo itself.) Uhm, not quite. Image isn't artistry. MCMXC A.D. (OOh!! 1990 in ROMAN NUMERALS! Roman numerals like on cathedrals!! Gothic! Deep!!) isn't music it's marketing.Cheers,Robert"
+7937,2,Every Texan should know these songs,"We printed out ""I've been everywhere"" and challenged the grandkids with a $100 bill to learn it. They're up to about $3.00 but still sticking with it. Best album!!!"
+7938,2,Wolf Brilliance!,"Wow! I don't regret my month's wait of getting this book! I thought the first journal was outstanding, however, this journal blew me away! Such adventure!!!! When I read about the places Claidi went, it was as if I was there. If you read this book you will get into it so quickly that you won't want to finish! The book also makes you want more when you finish, but that's a whole other review!If you aren't a big romantic and love adventure, you would like this book. However, if you love reading about two loved ones who have to be apart from one another this is the book for you as well! Lee, the author made such a brilliant character that I fell in love with the moment I read the first book! Her wit just makes me laugh and wish I could be more like her This journal relates back to the first one so if you haven't read Claidi's first journal you must rush out to a bookstore and get the copy as well as this one! The whole collection of journals are outstanding! Enjoy reading!"
+7939,2,Good Tool Low Price,This is a great tool! it is quite accurate for a low price. not much more to say
+7940,1,Don't Buy This Product,"Purchased this product as I have bought several of these in the past few years. After the first use, I hand washed the garment and then hung it up to dry. The outer layer started peeling off and the zipper broke. I had to discard this after(1) use. I will not purchase this garment again."
+7941,1,not what I expected,"This book was not what i expected.It was too short, too general and just too darn boring.It didn t have enough illustrations and the ones that are there arn t very good.There was not enough info on the classification of horses ex. breeds,region of living,origins,just not enough.Susan Mcbane's Illustrated Encyclopedia of HORSE BREEDS was much better---just wish i had bought it first."
+7942,2,Great look at football when it was still very entwined with politics,"Kuper definitely does his homework in writing this book, probably the first of its kind when written in the early 90's. I is hard to not appreciate all the traveling and risks he took in getting some of these interviews, but then again he is sometimes self serving about how hard the journey's were. Anyhow, he picks his topics well and focuses on one aspect of a particular area or rivalry that gives us a glimpse into the whole.Some drawbacks were already apparent in the first chapter where you could clearly read into a bit of bias, but it only hurts it minimally. Overall, a great read into the world of 90's soccer with the history to back it up. Definitely reads differently than if it was written today as the politics of football have faded to make way for the business of football, but only 20 or so years ago it was quite different, great to appreciate the difference."
+7943,2,Babylon & Ting,"OK, so everyone already knows the reputation that this early orb effort carries, tracks such as OOBE and Blue Room are widely recognised as chill-dub classics. The fact is that this album is the epitomy of what makes the orb, the orb....The songs are long and consist of layoured soundscape backdrops for dub rhythms and drifting samples. This album is an extremely accomplished work, which changes tempo, style and even volume with no flaw as you move through the tracks.Blue Room is a favourite track of mine and I wish I had the single, Wobbles bassline adds to the track immensely. Towers of Dub follows it and gives the listener an insight into the orb's sense of humour (you need to have seen Victor Lewis-Smith's TV work) which is black at the best.If you have [the money] in your pocket and your in a music store knowing that this is the only album you will ever buy, go on - endulge me and try this."
+7944,2,I would buy again,My daughter got this toy for Christmas right about the time she was starting to stand alone. I really do think it has helped her learn to walk. Although as soon as she could walk without it she lost interest in it. I do like that it has a wide base and is adjustable as far as speed. I think I would buy it again.
+7945,2,Nice,"Nice work. Very well done. I enjoyed the story very much. Don't let that other review get you down, it's probably some immature brat for a student that has some sort of grudge against you. IT WAS GOOD! Write more books, you are very very talented!"
+7946,1,This really sucked.,"I loved both Red Dragon and Silence of the Lambs (even more than the movies). But this one...eeeeccchh! I think Thomas Harris just picked up a copy of Silence of the Lambs and wrung out what he could then filled in the rest with crap. It was slow. It was dull. It was a novel already so impressed with itself that it obviously didn't feel it had to try. Worse than anything was the ending...stupid, illogical, unbelievable and disappointing. Hannibal himself wasn't even scary, let alone horrifying. It actually made the prequel look bad in retrospect. AVOID AT ALL COSTS!"
+7947,1,This is the worst movie I have ever seen!,"I only have to say that when I went to the theater to watch this, for the first time in my life, I seriously thought of getting out. I only stayed because I wasn�t alone. Anyway, avoid this trash and stick with Batman, Batman Returns, and even with Batman Forever. R.I.P. Batman."
+7948,1,Toshiba 42hp95,"This tv has been dissapointing for us. Shortly after installing picture started flashing, flickering & rolling for no apparent reason. We troubleshooted thinking it might be other equipment affecting the picture but realize now that it's a defective tv. I cringe at the prospect of dealing with customer service centers, tv repairmen & warranty limitations."
+7949,2,Great Book!,"I liked this book a lot, although I haven't read the whole trilogy. This book has romance, and a great plot line. At first I though that Caitlin was a stuck up snob, but I learned to like her, that comes along when you read the book. I read this book in a matter of hours and can't wait to read Love Lost and True Love."
+7950,1,Zoysia plugger,"This plugger is not easy to get the plugs out of the sod, even after watering for several hours. I had to rock it back & forth many times before I got half the plug out of the ground. I don't recommend this product. Save your money."
+7951,1,Listening to this CD is literally TORTURE,"""Torture"" (noun)-- Being forced to listen to this abject failure by Metallica.Metallica cornered the market with St. Anger. It is--without question--the worst CD I have ever heard from a mega-band.It is a shining example of an astonishing and brilliant failure by Metallica (and no doubt embarrassing to them).I'd give it 0 stars if I could.Don't waste 1-cent on this CD."
+7952,1,Too Difficult to Use!!,"I bought this seat because Consumer Reports recommended it. However, apparently nobody at Consumer Reports has children because if they did they would not approve of this seat. It's difficult to install (which could be due to the seats in our SUV), it is too hard to line up the buckle to snap it in (who would design such a buckle?!? And that's when our daughter is sitting patiently- I can't imagine if she were throwing a fit or squirming around), and it's impossible to tighten the straps. We are very [...] when it comes to making sure that the seat is installed with a very tight fit (no slipping around on the seat) and not being able to get more than 2 fingers under the shoulder straps. It is impossible to do with this seat. I'm returning it and looking for a more user friendly seat!! Consumer Reports hasn't let us down until now!"
+7953,2,A Stand Up and Cheer Movie,"This is an impressive film based on the ground breaking heroics of the Tuskegee Airmen. Despite the racism and a reticent military establishment to give these men some credence and a chance to serve their country, they outshine all the disparagers and achieve their aspirations to the ""call of duty"" above and beyond even their own expectations. This is the stuff dreams and heroes are made of. I like this film because it does not preach to the viewer, but instead lets the visuals of all that heroism speak for itself. This is a good stand up and cheer movie that celebrates these men. I highly recommend it."
+7954,1,Please stop trying to Buffy-ify Daphne!,"Why do they in the newer versions make Fred dumber (he was the SMARTEST in the original) and Daphne more Buffy-esque? It's just WRONG somehow and out of character to me. Other than that, the plot was bland and blah-- my kids, HUGE Scooby fans, were bored out of their skulls."
+7955,1,Tristemente corto.,"Me quedé con ganas de más, el libro es interesante pero sumamente corto para un autor del calibre de GarcÃa Marquez."
+7956,1,Horrible,These were a present for my son and he used them one day and they stopped working in the middle of listening to a song and we couldn't get them to work again. I was very disappointed. If I knew that they would match the price to the quality then I would have just went to the store and bought a cheap pair that would have lasted longer.
+7957,1,Broken case and skipping scenes,"When I received this the case was cracked including the spindle that holds the DVD. We watched the movie regardless and found that we had to skip a scene as the disk was damaged in that area. I give this a rating 2 as we were able to watch most of this movie and the case damage was superficial. If you don't mind the possibility of a cracked case or possibly slightly damaged disk, fine, but I would not recommend this seller to a friend."
+7958,1,Regard your intentions,"My maid is going to wonder what the hell I did this weekend to make such a mess of the kitchen. Well, I cooked Jaimacan jerk chicken on a Lodge stove top grill. I have a number of Lodge products for frying, stewing and baking, and I love them. This one though is going to father Joe as a donation."
+7959,2,"Twin Pack KitchenAid 8 & 10"" skillet","Beautiful non-stick skillets and perform well, 4 star rating only because this item is not dishwasher safe."
+7960,1,Doesn't work for long time black dye users,"I purchased this at a local beauty supply and was told by the store employee's that it works great. I told them I had been dying my hair black for 4+ years and they said it should work great on my hair and lighten it at least 3-4 shades. It did not work at all. I followed the directions to the T and was left with the same black color. My hair is not the slightest bit lighter, and I was left with rotten egg/sulfur scented hair after ten washes!!!May work on fresh dye jobs but I wouldn't know."
+7961,2,Entertaining and prompt,The DVD's arrived quickly and both shows were just as much fun to watch as the first time I saw them.
+7962,2,The most human and humane Hans Sachs,"Disregard the technology of the recording and listen to the interpretation. Friedrich Schorr today is best remembered for the humanity displayed in his representation of Hans Sachs in Wagner's ""Die Meistersinger"", as well as his excellent singing. This pairing of both qualities put this recording as one of the best, if not, the best, of the Hans Sachs interpretations available to us today. Do get past the recording quality and enjoy this magnificent performance. I did enjoy and am to look forward to rehearing it many more times."
+7963,2,Pretty good book,This book is pretty good. I just wish I had more time to read it. I have read about half way and my hubby too. It has some great lessons. Great to read outside on a nice sunny day that takes your cares away. I would recommend this book.
+7964,2,A Whole New Mind,"The context of this book is spot on for parents nurturing developing young minds. We need to really move away from the old way of thinking (L-Directed thinking), and encourage the next generation to have an open approach to learning and leading. We need to grow the next generation of leaders and the suggestions in this book will give us a huge boost in doing that."
+7965,2,Book Review,"Having just visited the small town in South Alabama which was the setting for this book, it was a ""warm and fuzzy"" read! Very Southern and very sweet."
+7966,2,Ty Beanie Babies - July the Birthday Bear,Colorful with birthstone on its nose. Nice touch with the cake and candles and the month stitched in. Great collector's item.
+7967,1,Thid product [IS BAD],"I purchased the eureka steamer a few weeks ago. I tried it once and all it did was spurt water all over my clothes, it never released pure steam. In addition, it would constantly run out of pressure and I would have to wait a minute or two for it to warm back up. This machine is totally useless, I can't believe Eureka would even market this product. I even sent it back thinking it was defective, boy was I wrong. The replacement did the same thing. Please believe me when I said please do not buy this product."
+7968,1,Not goo enough to buy,"I really like Russell Crowe and Salma Heyek in this movie, but it was just too boring to buy. I definately thought the ending was the best part though.........because the movie was over. If I could I woudl SO ask for my money back. Although the movies offers some steamy hallucenations, it's not worth the time and effort to watch movie. Trust me, DO NOT BUY THIS MOVIE!... Rent it from blockbuster or something....."
+7969,1,pretty bad,Big big world is the only hit there. You get the impression that she cannot sing and one wonders how someone could do a complete album with her
+7970,2,Old Skool House Heads: Rejoice!!,"This is the CD that got me hooked on house music forever. On this CD, Judge Jules demonstrates what exactly a DJ should be doing in addition to flawless beat-matching. He keeps things interesting from font to back so the impression it gives is that of a single, larger experience rather than a 'hits collection' that uses the familiarity trick to gain your interest. Don't be mistaken though, some of the tracks included were big 'underground' house hits in '93. But Jules' performance is what makes this worth playing even today.Personally, I compare ALL my mix cd's to this one, only Keoki compares favorably (even though his style is different.)"
+7971,2,Best Series on T.V.,Loved all seasons of Friday Night Lights. Phenomenal acting and relatable characters. Best series I've watched in a long time.
+7972,2,This was one of my favorites from the Whispers.,"This was one of my favorites from the Whispers. Lost and turned out is my favorite. I think its telling ladies not to sell yourself for anyone and never to settle for less. Headlights was really a jumping song back in the day, really nice to dance to."
+7973,2,"Great album, this one will live on!","I first heard Lalah Hathaway on the Tales ablum of Marcus Miller and her voice on 'Infatuation' was so... sprankle clear, so beautiful, hard to describe. So I started wondering if there would be any solo albums of this great voice. Now I have both albums in my collection I must say that she rebuilded my concept of music. Her voice opens new worlds and the songs open new experiences every time you listen. I can just say: buy these albums and let yourself be brought elsewhere on the waves of this voice... The world will never be the same."
+7974,1,didn't appeal to me at all,"Don't get me wrong I read the whole book. However it was a struggle. The metaphor of watching earth on a video before we get here to pick who will be our ""host"" body was disconcerting to me and it certainly did not ring true with my spirit. I do not feel that our spirits are using our human bodies in a partner in a parasitic relationship."
+7975,1,Another desperate effort to prevent christian converts,"Western literature is littered with emotionally charged denunciation of Muslims in general and Islam and its Prophet in specific. There is no comparable broadbased movement against Chritianity amongst the Muslims. The Muslims are constrained by their belief system not to be disrespectful of Jesus, while the Christians and their Clergy seem to take great pleasure in trying to outdo each other in the amount of venom they can spew out against Muhammed(PBUH) and Islam. The subconciuos hatred of the Muslims seems to be a Thread that links all Christians, the religious as well as the secular. The battle for converts is surely to be won by the Muslims."
+7976,2,Great work,"Alan Lee is an extraordinary artist. His work here is wonderful for anyone who loves pencil drawings and sketches, as do I."
+7977,2,When's the next one ...,"Once again, J.D. Robb (AKA Nora Roberts) has transported me all too briefly to the world of Eve and Roarke and I will, once again, haul out my much-read copies of her previous "". . . in Death"" masterpieces and re-read the ""good"" parts. Without giving any of the plot away, I'll just opine that this story was more poignant than the others. The emotional impact of the stories grows with each new entry. But, at the end I suffered a panic attack ... there's no ""teaser"" for the next installment. When's it coming?!?!?!"
+7978,1,Preachy,"I am no fan of Microsoft, but this movie stinks, needs to be more documentary, less ranting interviews, tell us the history, the startup, the challenges etc......"
+7979,2,Perfect for older larger dogs,"sturdy, long enough to reduce angle making it easier for dogs to walk up it, folds up to fit inside the back of SUV, wide enough for dog to feel safe, ridges on surface prevent slipping,"

+7982,2,"Pay attention to the dimensions, these are very small","Pay attention to the dimensions on these. I just read ""original cube"" and thought they'd be the normal post-its but these are really small and not the ""original"" size post it that I was thinking...my mistake on that, just want to keep others from doing that. These are still good quality post-its as usual, I'll just use them for really small notes."
+7983,1,Awful!!!!,I bought this because I thought it would be better than my five year old Graco. Boy was I wrong! The interference from the neighbor's phones and the beeping in the middle of the night have driven my husband and I crazy!
+7984,2,"Quiet, cool, fast and reliable","I've used my Lacie d2 BigDisk 500 GB drive for about 6 months now, and have been very pleased. It is very quiet, almost silent. Runs at a good temperature and keeps cool with an alloy case. I haven't had any problems using it with my USB 2.0 connection and Windows XP (service pack 2) as the operating system. Formatted and partitioned it without any problems. It has been a godsend for storing large media files and backing up crucial data for storage off of my network. The drive conveniently shuts down at the same time you shut down the PC. I've read the other reviews and have been surprised at the problems others have had. Then again, I think all hard drives are susceptible to difficulties, especially with heavy use. After many years of extremely heavy-duty computer usage - and after having tried most hard drives under the sun (Maxtor, Western Digital, Seagate), I have to say that this is one of the most impressive products I've used."
+7985,1,Better luck next time!,"Fantasia was the best talent on the show and deserved to win, however she also needed to be given a better chance at showcasing her talent than this. I think that her single she released is far better than this one.She does not deliver what I expected of her ..Her talent is second to none but this CD by far is so disappointing.Let's hope that Fantasia can build from this album. I expect to see more albums from her, and hopefully will probably be better than this one."
+7986,2,A bit different than her normal stories.,"This is a great story, but a little unbelievable when it comes to the Klone's performance. It had some great laughs in it throughout the book."
+7987,1,"Sell me what I want, not what you do!","I agree with the fact that I want what I want, not what the studio does. I already own the extended version on regular DVD, the only reason I am interested is because of the picture quality on Blu Ray. I will NOT buy other that the extended version on Blu Ray. I can and will wait until they offer what I want!"
+7988,2,Excellent - Each essay is thought provoking and well-written,"If you are a die-hard TP fan, then you should grab a copy of this book. Most of the essays are quite academic in nature, but that fact doesn't diminish their readability. You may not agree with every analyzation from each author, but if you loved the show, you'll gladly welcome the fresh insights."
+7989,2,Aloe is awesome,Thank you once again for delievery on time and my product is fresh and you make it so easy to deal with Amazon.
+7990,2,very useful lids,"These lids make it a whole lot easier for my family to know which jars they can use. Especially with refrigerator pickles as I can with the regular 2 part lids and once it is opened use these white plastic ones. That way the kids don't end up opening 4 jars of the same and saying ""but I thought it was opened already""!"
+7991,1,negative,this book deserves a negative star because it has a spineless heroine. she tried to buy the hero. she knew he had problem taking her money and she kept throwing at him. she always made the first move. she did most of the work in the relationship. she did not have any dignity. it was hard to like her.
+7992,1,HBO Acting,"This movie was bad. The acting was horrible. Merecedes Rhuel who played Gia's mother was like a cartoon character. The only good performance was by the blonde girlfriend (Elizabeth Mitchell). The whole thing just reeked of a made-for-HBO movie.Fine for a late night hotel tv watch. Also, the Terrence Blanchard jazz soundtrack was pretty good. Otherwise, a PASS."
+7993,1,"Good design, BAD Quality","I bought this keyboard thinking I had found my holy grail, only to be surprised 3 months later (that's right, 3 MONTHS) when it completely stopped working. Took it apart, and realized there's nothing to fix - it's all a giant maze of electrical conduits.While the keyboard was super quiet, ergonomic and convenient, after only 2 1/2 weeks, the spacebar started sticking when pressed. I did not heed the negative reviews about it's quality, thinking they were exaggerating, and I paid for that lesson learned.It was good while it lasted. All in all, a horrible waste of money. I have now switched and fallen in love with the Logitech Wave Keyboard (which I've had 2 of for almost 3 years now! They look and feel like new)."
+7994,1,DON'T BUY THIS JUNK,"I've had the vacuum 6 months, three of which is worked and three of which I've been waiting for a replacement of the spinning brush. It's currently on backorder which means that a lot of people are having the same problem. The website is impossible to find and if you call them they are absolutely helpless! We finally broke down and bought another vacuum. Try Eureka, they're excellent."
+7995,1,This product SUCKS!!!,"I whish I could do a proper review of this product but since IT WONT EVEN TURN ON, there is not much I can say about its sound and how the keys work. luckily my 7 year old had other presents to entertain herself this christmas. Dont waste your money on this piece of crap."
+7996,2,Take control of your body,"This book has been an excellent bed-side resource for us since my husband and I began practicing Natural Family Planning earlier this year. I'm ashamed at my age (late 20s) I never learned most of what's taught here about our cycles, fertility and reproductive system. As a woman who used the pill for years, I firmly believe this book should be required reading for all teenage girls."
+7997,1,Unbelievable and Disappointing,"I am disappointed in this book as it had potential to be unique mystery, and I do not quite understand how it earned itself a spot on the NYT Best Sellers list. I found the heroine of the book not very credible, and in fact too down right stupid to be believed. The harrowing moments in the book are brought about not by the sharp inquisitive mind of someone who is supposed to be a decorated officer, but a bumbling ditz who I put the clues together for half way through the book. Predictable to a fault, (which makes it harder and harder to identify with the main characters), the ""whodunnit"" environment drones with all the usual suspects and a formula that's been played out in every Scooby Doo cartoon. I found myself skipping through the last chapters just to get to the end."
+7998,1,Cant believe 4.5 stars!,"Oh my god. I expected so much more from a food with 4.5 stars.This tastes worse than the cheapest spaghetti at a cafeteria. Like canned food.I couldn't even eat half a bowl, let alone a whole box!"

A light-hearted, fun survey of the scientist's motivation results.Diane C. Donovan, EditorCalifornia Bookwatch"
+8002,2,A great book,"I think that this book is great. The main character is going through the realization that she was deceived by everyone she loves. All the while, cooney makes her misfortunes into a thriller. An autor who can twist a sory into whatever she feels like making it is truly an author. It's a really great book."

+8004,1,Not Recommended.,"I've had this printer for 5 months. It worked fine for 3 months. Now, all it will do is tell me the Canon black cartridge cannot be recognized, even though it is almost full of ink. Canon does not even list this model on it's tech support website, and troubleshooting gives no helpful information.I have removed and re-installed the cartridge a dozen times....the light comes on momentarily, but when I try to print, scan, or copy, it goes out and again I get the ""can't recognize the cartridge"" notice. Canon charges ten bucks for support. Bad deal."

+8006,2,"Finished in almost one-sitting, It's that good.","I have a limited amout of experience with the film industry. I found a great deal of interesting facts I wish I had known before I got started. The recurring theme is hard work and diligence is rewarded in the film industry. That's a very encouraging message to someone who couldn't afford film school and has few ""friends"" in the business. I am eager to get settled in LA and put her advice to work. This is part step-by-step instruction and part devotional. It helps you get all your ducks in row and keep the wolves of discouragement at bay. Well done."
+8007,2,Neat clock with extras,"We can tell the temperature instead of having to go outside and check how cold it is, or have to look online or watch the news and see what it is out there at the present time. The temperature sensor goes outside. It tells the temperature inside and out, the time, what moon cycle it is, the day, and date.Sometimes it has a problem updating with satellites to update the time, like when we switched to Daylight Savings time, it took several days"
+8008,1,Car Selling 101: The Basics,"This book is privately published and has not had the benefit of an editor or anyone who can use a dictionary for that matter. It is sprinkled with fancy words that invariably fall out of context, and is poorly punctuated - to put it generously. The language of the moderately literate, trying unsuccessfully to sound otherwise.Writing ability aside, this book fails to deliver much valuable information to the reader about the automotive sales business. You would be much better off with a good general sales book. The last part of the book is unrelated to sales, becoming a narration of the author's experiences with discrimination against minorities in the workforce and a political rant."
+8009,2,[cheap price]!,"Man you gettin this cd...and its got 30 plus songs on there!Dog even if you arent fellin 3-6 you will w/ this gerat deal! Sippinon some syrup, and Where tha cheese at are some recommended songs for tha bass @ them fi-fi parties"
+8010,1,what happened to the first singer?,"well i would like to start off by saying this album is not bad by any means as it has some great songs on it. However, the new singer doesnt make the songa as lively as the last one. and 'keasbey nights' was much more varied than 'alone in a crowd' as far as the sound of thr band goes. so again, not necasarily bad, but a disapointment for me as a catch 22 fan."
+8011,2,Best Shoes,"This it is one of the best products. I recommend it, I'm very according with the purchase.Este es uno de los mejores productos. Lo recomiendo, estoy muy conforme con la compra"
+8012,1,"Nicely bright, but VERY cheap construction.","These are extremely flimsy. We bought four of them, (good to be safe right?), and all but one have broken apart. Ride over a little bump, they break off. Ride over a slight ridge in the pavement, they break off. And of course, ride off a curb and they will break off. The plastic is just so cheap that it can't support its own weight and the weight of the batteries inside. EXTREMELY lousy construction. Avoid unless you are going to use them on something that doesn't move, a flag-pole or something. Even then the case might still break when you put the batteries inside. The lights ARE bright though....I gotta say something good!We bought replacements at Meijers in Ohio ($7.99) and they are a great replacement. Sorry I don't have product details for the suggested replacement."
+8013,1,Please Don't use this Book,"This is the only book that the AAP lists as dangerous.It goes against instinct, and can hurt your baby.Ezzo's grown children no longer talk to him ... I think that says it all."
+8014,1,it`s a secret,"this is a 50 to 60 minute dvd, it has almost nothing new for a area 51 or ufo buff, in mostly has pics of the entry sighs to the area 51, and all interviewers say basicly the same thing that the area contains secrets, for these reasons itself i would`nt have bought it."
+8015,1,don't do it!,this product does not work at all! It actually made me more hungy... Don't waste ur money on this!
+8016,1,Too political for me,"I was really looking forward to this book. My excitement for it ended in the first chapter she stated the worst thing in life would be if one of her children were to come home and say they were a republican! I wasn't looking for a politcal book - I was wanting to read a warm, funny, touching story. I found it to be written without morals and if this is the opinions of most single women today - we are in a world of hurt. I didn't finish it. It was revolting."
+8017,1,Yawner,Overly indulgent tale of a rehab girl who attends her sister's wedding and creates A LOT of non needed drama. I got through about 40 minutes before I puked all over the T.V. MY GRADE: D plus
+8018,2,dishes,"just wonderful love my dishes, they arrived just as promised and i am disabled and have to use light dishes so these are perfect"
+8019,2,Conditioner,"It seems to do what it is made to do. Kills bad stuff in the water, keeps excess bubbles from forming, and though I can really attest to( since I only had it a month or so) it keeps vinyl conditioned. But half a bottle is good in King size for six months, approx a third is good for all other beds for six months per the label. Hope this helps"
+8020,2,No Way for Theatrical Editions,There is now way I am buying Blue Ray for the Theatrical Editions when there has been a Director's Edition release in DVD. I was very disappointed in this trick for Independence Day and the Theatrical (only) releae in Blue Ray. No way No way. My excellent digital TV makes the DVD look good enough to wait.
+8021,2,coredemptrix inception,"10 years before the Pope had the idea ofannouncing Mary as coredemptrix, Mr. Haryono has already proposed or introducedthat idea before. implicitly, he revealed the divine side of Mary's personality. What a breakthrough in Mariology. I would encourage all believers to read it."
+8022,1,Clogged Heads,"I can only echo the posts of others in this list. The heads get clogged, and the printer starts spitting out blank pages. I was happy with the machine up to that point, even though it seems (to me, at least) a little thirsty, and I can't print a black text document if any of my color cartridges are empty. Excuse me, in truth, I can't print a black-text document if the printer THINKS any of my color cartridges are empty. I have had the printer tell me a cartridge is empty, and when I take it out and shake it, I hear plenty of stuff sloshing around in there. I called Epson and they offered to fix it free, with free shipping both ways, even though it's out of warranty."
+8023,1,Tight Fit,The idea of this product is wonderful. We have collected quite a few M&D puzzles. However most of them will not fit in this storage shelf. It is so tight that it will scratch the puzzles and little hands cannot remove them. Including the puzzle featured in the photo. Find another storage option.
+8024,1,"Its a good laugh, but don't waste your money","If your a liberial this book is great for your bashing America, Its full of liberial ideology.It doesn't matter that most of the facts are wrong, but if you study history and look at it objectively your will realize the author is just pulling things out of thin air and twisting facts without any factual knowledge just to suport his thesis, calling it revisionist history. After a good laugh I found it sad that there are so many people out there doing things that they are not qualified for and just don't have the decency to stop as well as there are people that believe everything they read just to support there ideology."
+8025,1,Yet another must read for the the right wing fringe,"If you liked the Turner Diaries and Hunter, check this one out. At least Cashill knows sentence structure if nothing else. Yet another in the redneck, racist, ""Oh my God, the liberals are ruining our nation"" genre. Simplistic, predictable and well worth skipping."
+8026,2,I have heard that criticism.......,"is the death gargle of a non achiever. It is proven every day by many critics and certainly this one is a perfect example. Has this guy ever seen Jerry live? He had some pretty nimble fingers for a guy in his health. As a matter of fact he is one of my favorite guitarist of all time. This CD is great listening. I paid more for it and would have liked to save a few bucks, but I have gotten a lot more out of my money even if I would have paid more. What a great thing to hear him do Dear Prudence live on CD. How cool is that.Jerry had a knack for spreading warmth and happiness through his voice and guitar and it is proven by the great dead heads and even casual listeners. I guarantee you that I will remember this CD and band throughout the years with fondness and I have forgot the name of this critic already while typing this review."
+8027,2,Excellent Recording,"SF Symophony has let out yet another excellent recording in their Mahler Cycle. Michael Tilson Thomas gives a genius interpretaion, and this CD defies all the claims that the live perfomance of the Symphony in September 2002 was a struggle.The orchestra members add color and splendor; Trumpeter Glenn Fitchhtal offers a superb posthorn solo, and trombonist Mark Lawrnece plays the solo in the first movement with fluency and determination. Michelle de Young also adds a mystical and awing sensation to the recording. Also on the CD is Kindertotenleider, and MTT along with the SFS and Michelle de Young, show that they are indeed some of the foremost Mahler interpreters."
+8028,2,The Who at their Best.,"Unavailable in Oz, so had to import one of the Greatest Who albums ever.Just an amazing example of Rock and an added bonus with a variation to ""Who Are You?"" I'd never heard before and Keith Moon still playing. What a legend!"
+8029,2,Great book,"This book was pretty good ,but i think they should make a sequel where brandon can fall in love again and be happy. Then the book will be awsome! It was really good though i cried like the whole time i read it. Lurlene Mcdaniel always writes awsome books!!! keep on writing!!!make the angel book a series!!!!!"
+8030,1,I am really dissapointed,"folks, I really thought that for 400 dollars, this item would be more... quality, i mean, it sounded ok, and after a week the rubber band was loosening so that it would slip when i played, this item is honestly trash, and the customer that reviewed it and gave it 5 stars is obviously being payed, i wouldn't want anyone else to go through what I went through... **sigh** i'm out 400 dollars, and they won't give me a refund,"
+8031,1,You'll get tired of cleaning it pretty quickly,"It's not that the filter is a bad deal or anything, it's just that you're going to get tired of putting the whole thing together, especially if you drink a lot of coffee. I've gone for the K-Cups, myself."
+8032,1,"Good Music, but the CD is corrupted (""protected"")","Can't play it on your MP3 player, can't play it on your computer, can't make a copy for the car. That's lame. Don't buy it. Record company executives think they can use technology to superceed your constitutional rights. Make it clear you won't buy it."
+8033,2,Unexpectedly hysterical,"Every once in a while, you stumble across a movie that is surprising in its ability to entertain. This movie surpasses that standard by leaps and bounds (literally). I didn't choose to watch this film, and wouldn't have, but am very glad I did. Other reviewers have told you the plot, and I won't bother. What's worth knowing that others don't tell you is that if you want to maximize the entertainment, watch it in dubbed English WITH the English subtitles. You'll find that they use completely different scripts that were prepared by people having wildly divergent abilities to translate from the original Cantonese. Taking both in simultaneously only adds to the hilarity of an already tumultously funny film."
+8034,1,Am I the only one to find this book BORING!!!,"Man looking at some of these reviews I have to wonder did they read the same book I did? Because let me tell you there was nothing exciting or intresting or passionate about these character! Blah story Blah romance Blah sex I mean really what did they find intesting cuase I can't find a thing hence the one star. Very boring book don't waste you money Please trust me there are ten times better authors out there buy another book but not this one it really sucked. I didn't even finish it, it was that bad."
+8035,1,Disappointing,"Recently bought this to replace a 4-year old battery in my Dell laptop. When new, I used to get almost 3 hours of use, but that had dwindled to about 1/2 hour.So I bought this replacement a few weeks ago and yesterday used the computer for the first time on battery power. I only got about 70 minutes out of it. Luckily I was near my office and was able to get the cord. But if I was working on a plane I would NOT have been happy.Spend the extra $$$ and get a name brand."
+8036,1,Poorly designed fryer,"I really don't understand how all these people gave it such a high rating. I bought it due to the high ratings but it really falls short.Some of the shortcomings are:No on/off switch - you have to unplug the fryer to turn it offNot made to fry batter dipped foods. - It might be fine for fries and such but if you put a batter-dipped item in it, it sticks to the wire basket, and you have to scrape it off with a knife after each batch. Yuck.There is no spout to pour out the oil for cleaning. -It is a mess to clean!Much better off with a pan on the stove."
+8037,2,good... for the price,"Good value for the price... wish they were wider, like most ramikens instead of deeper."
+8038,1,Waste of money.,"Bought this for my husband to keep in his work truck. It didn't keep anything cold, and the motor died in it within 2 months."
+8039,1,What was i thinking,"This movie is for people that love horror types of movies i'm not one of them, what was i thinking."
+8040,1,You get what you paid for,"The price is right for this ""mahogany""-looking piece of furniture. Quality wooden stands cost more, of course. I've got what I paid for. I bought this music stand to fit into the interior. It is not mahogany of course, and it fell apart during the assembly (I had to send it back to the seller for repair. They glued it together). Now I am just using it to keep spare music sheets. It stays in the corner of the room, and I am afraid to move it because it will fall apart again."
+8041,2,Polka Music on cassett,This cassett is awesome. great sound and music. It was what we were looking for in POLKa music on cassett.
+8042,1,"`Ran' A plus, `Goodbye Boys' F minus","Both of these films are foreign adaptations of Western culture. `Goodbye Boys' is a Malaysian version of the Boy Scouts of America complete with typical American teenage pranks. Somehow, I got the feeling that whoever did the subtitles in the video tried to make it appear that these boys were no different from American youths. Yet, the actor's body language did not match that of the subtitle. The movie didn't appear to be credible to me and I became bored very fast. It isn't worth the shipping and handling charge. If you must see it, rent it.*Whereas, `Ran' is a Japanese samurai adaptation of a Shakespeare play `King Lear' that was faithful to their culture. It kept me glued to the couch throughout the entire movie. Put your money on `Ran' and you won't regret it whereas you will with `Goodbye Boys' and your money."
+8043,1,Defective Battery - Not Allowed To Return,"Typical good Amazon delivery time, but battery does not work. More accurately, it works, but the APC software indicates that the battery will only keep my PC running for less than one minute. Same PC attached to old battery always showed about 15 minutes available.Can't return because it's considered hazardous materials, etc. I think this policy could have been more prominently displayed in the item's description.In retrospect, I should have just purchased another APC UPS unit, which would have cost me just another $15."
+8044,2,Effective,"Not as good as ""Workout: One-On-One Training with Jackie"" but good. it's broken down into floor ab workout, and standing ab workout. I prefer the standing workout."
+8045,1,not bad,"I've had this product for over a year. The lights worked great for occasional use, but are VERY HOT, producing a lot of heat, but also a lot of light. Sadly, they both stopped working at the same time. Replacing bulbs didn't solve the problem. Obviously, poor quality/wiring. Useless now..."
+8046,2,Still in beta.,"In parallel to the development efforts at Blizzard this book has gone through many revisions and bug patches.The book is published in a 3 ring binder. Patches to the book come as loose leaf 3 hole punched paper. Applying the patch can be difficult due to multiple page number revisionsAs the game will never be released, this book will only have value to the beta-team."
+8047,2,It Works Well,"This is a product that does what it is intended to do. That is unfortunately rare in today's market.My preferences have led me to get rid of my gas grill and return to the charcoal type. Then, I chose to give up on briquettes and starter fluid because of the petroleum taste. Once I started using real wood charcoal, I found that it was difficult to get started (without fluid). So, this chimney device was exactly what I needed.It does generate smoke while the kindling paper is burning, but once the paper is burned, the smoke is gone. The charcoal reaches an intense temperature while in the chimney and you are ready to cook when you dump it out. Great product."
+8048,1,Yuck!!!!,"I love Pepperidge Farm Milano Cookies and I like almost every one of the different Milano flavors but I just don't like these raspberry milanos. The raspberry taste is very strong and very yucky! They taste fake too with a strong imitation raspberry flavor! Yuck! I recommend The Milk Chocolate Milanos, the chocolate Orange Milanos and the Mint Chocolate Milanos instead!"
+8049,2,Hamilton Beach 68010,"The electric Ice Shaver makes fine shaved ice, but I had a difficult time to get the blade to grab the ice and get it moving. Once it started it was okay, but it did take some effort."
+8050,2,Perfect Family Fun!!!,"This is a very funny movie that stars Martin Short as Murray, a bumbling fairy god-mother who can hardly do anything right. His first job is helping Anabel Greening, played by Mara Wilson. Anabel's wish is that her dad is auditioning for a part in a broadway musical, and she wants him to get the part. Unfortunately, Murray accidentally turns her dad into a statue. When Anabel, her brother Charlie, and Murray go to NAFGAa and tell the Queen of the Fairy Godmothers what happened, she tells Anabel that if they don't reverse the spell by midnight, he will remain a statue forever. Before they can do that, they have to get the wands back from the evil Claudia. I highly recommend A SIMPLE WISH!!!"
+8051,1,poor quality,purchased 1 it worked great purchased 5 more 4 of 5 either parts broke or just stopped working poor quality.
+8052,1,As lame as it gets,"How ridiculous this is!! I almost burst out laughing when I listened to this. The stream noises are beyond obviously artificial, with loud background music that sounds like incredibly cheesy elevator music. Well, its good for one thing: A good laugh.Don't waste your money like I did."
+8053,1,"Good for older women, not for younger women","The Method: T'Ai ChiClaire Hooton is a beautiful older woman and the host. While she seems to ""know her stuff"" I found the instruction unpleasing. I think it would be great for older adults looking to learn T'ai Chi at home but not for younger people. It's geared toward older women.It's also an older video. While it has 2002, 2008 as the copyright dates, it looks like it was filmed in the mid 90's. If you would prefer something more recent and geared toward younger people, don't get this DVD. However, if you are an older woman, this may be perfect for you!"
+8054,2,handy and helpful,"The title for this review of Japanese the Manga Way: An Illustrated Guide to Grammar and Structure is ""handy and helpful"", and this book truly is so for the student of Japanese language. It breaks down grammar and structure that are easy to understand -- using manga to demonstrate them make it fun and entertaining (I admit that some of the manga illustrations have prompted me to go in search for some of the titles). I have used it many times when I need a better explanation than my Japanese textbook (or sometimes even my instructor!) can provide. This book is best used in conjunction with a language class, though I know that may not always be possible. But this book is not suitable if what you want to learn is how to order two beers and steaks or to ask the taxi driver to take you to Shibuya. For that, you ought to check out books that focus on conversational Japanese."
+8055,1,A Clunker!,"After reading all the highly favorable reviews about Loaded Dice, I was anticipating reading a highly entertaining book. Sorry to say, this book, while being a fast read, didn't have much going for to make it recommendable. In my opinion, it is, at best ""fair."" The plot was very predictable, the dialogue is often unreal and the secondary characters are rather poorly developed. Even the main character -- Tony Valentine -- didn't 'ring true' for me. This was my first book by James Swain and may be my last -- although I have several of the others in this series. I know issuing a critical review on Amazon often results in many negative ratings. I'm willing to risk this if it helps prevent you from making the same mistake I did, which was reading a book that was disappointing."
+8056,1,Not a good Kindle edition,"Unfortunately, this Kindle version is missing almost all of the illustrations, which are an integral part of the book. And the poetry is not formatted correctly and is in red on my iPad Kindle.Through the Looking Glass [Kindle Edition] by BLTC is the one you want."
+8057,2,Wonderful techniques for power and love.,"This book opened my eyes and heart to the life power techniques. I am very ecxiting again about being powerful. Thanks for a great book, Uri.RegardsAmy Larson"
+8058,2,black and white night - roy orbison,this is the best live concert album i have ever seen (there is a video) and or have listened to.roy orbison rules.
+8059,2,The great original version of a fantastic movie,This is without a doubt the best version of the original story. A must buy for lovers of classic movies.
+8060,2,Great Straightaway Rock - This band deserves mass Radio-play,"What a great album. The only disappointment is that clocks in at well under 60 minutes. While the album is not technical, it will move you with it's moody songs and catchy hooks. Even if radio stations don't have the courage to play it, give this album a try. If you like the Goo Goo Dolls and/or Lifehouse, you will spin this disc over and over. Go Revis!"
+8061,1,Not Fully Assembled,"The description for this chest mentions in 2 places that its fully assembled but it's not. I received a box of boards that need to be assembled into a cedar chest. I wouldn't have ordered it if I'd known it had to be assembled. Also the color is a very red cherry color, much different than the picture."
+8062,2,The WHOLE story...,"This video is worth getting if you're a fan of the old Death Row. There is so much information and details about the rise and the fall of Death Row. It was interesting to see how Suge Knight went from being a regular bodyguard to being one of the music's worlds must notable names. The DVD traces Suge's history from being Bobby Brown's bodyguard to the infamous Vanilla Ice scandal. Not a single detail is missed on this DVD. There are also additional features aside from the Documentary, including an indepth Snoop Dogg interview. If you are interested in the deep history of Death Row, buy this DVD. If you're not a huge old school Death Row fan, it may be a little dull."
+8063,1,Inferior product,I received this product as a gift. The playback quality is poor. I found the instructions did not cover the complete operation of the product.. Operation life using a battery is short. I would have returned the product had it been purchased locally.
+8064,2,Highly Recommneded,"The Lord of the Rings is an outstanding work that has defined the field of heroic fantasy for two generations. I would recommend it to anyone who loves narrative sweep, an extraordinarily compelling world, and a master's use of the English language. Be warned, however, that it is one continuous story, published for practical reasons in three volumes. The Fellowship of the Ring is not complete in itself, and indeed, ends on an excruciating cliff-hanger. I guarantee, you will need to know what happens next. Once you know, this is no problem, as the other two volumes are very easily obtainable. This is one fantasy work that is never going to go out of print. Another book that follows in the steps of Tolkein is The Price of Immortality by C.M. Whitlock and it is a book that should be read at least once"
+8065,2,Possibly the best and most entertaining episode of Trek!,"This episode has always intrigued me, no matter how many times I view it! The best reason is that it's the first time we get to see a star ship damaged, both internally and externally.Second, it's one of the best ""tongue in cheek"" spots for both Nimoy and Kelly.Third, if they were ever to REMAKE this scenario, or ever enhance the original (all you DS9 fans know what I am talking about) they could have a field day and get away with it!Not to mention, if it were remade, image that PLAYMATES toys could have a field day!I've lagged on enough, suffice to say that it's one of the best episodes from the classic series!"
+8066,2,Good Little Set,"Wanted this for a guest bedroom, and it works for that. Nice little picture. It would probably also entertain the little ones in the back seat of an SUV too."
+8067,2,A change from the previous movie.,It kept the same theme even though most of the actors were different. I really enjoy this type of dance entertainment.
+8068,2,Best kept secret,NasalCrom is the best kept secret for relieving nasal stuffiness and nasal allergy symptoms. Think of it as prescription quality without any unwanted side effects. Great for someone with high blood pressure too. Well worth the value price available here. Go for the larger size if you can.
+8069,1,Don't waste your money,"Turbo Tax is perhaps my favorite software product of all time; its value-to-cost ratio is exceptionally high. Its Deductible, however, occupies the other end of the spectrum. While the product has some worthwhile features, these are completely overshadowed by: i) the abysmal interface with Turbo Tax; ii) the numerous technical glitches associated with downloading the product and (eventually) getting it to work; and iii) the poor technical support. I made the mistake of purchasing the ""deluxe"" version, which purports to provide fair market values for electronic items. I have yet to locate this database. I have since tried (numerous times) to download the databse from Intuit's website, but have been unsuccessful at that as well.Bottom line: don't aggravate yourself - stay away from this product."
+8070,2,Excellent but very short tracks,"I bought this CD because I've always loved listening to the music on the movie. However I am a bit disappointed that at least half of the tracks on the CD are less then a minute long. One of them is only 23 seconds and some only 35 to 45 seconds each! I still enjoy the CD for what it is, the music is excellent it's just a little annoying that the tracks are so short."
+8071,1,"Great, but impossible to fix technical problem","The game is exellent! BUT After I upgraded to the worst operating system... Windows XP...The game did not work very properly anymore. Activision's technical support is pure s-. I contacted the fourms at Planetquake and I still did not got a reply from them... If you have Windows XP... YOUR OUT OF LUCK. The error you will get if you have XP is... ERROR:GAMEERROR:Function pointers have moved.That occurs when I try to load the game... So do yourself a favor and buy a old machine with Win 95, NT, or 2000 to run this game properly."
+8072,2,Great deal,These are the same razors you purchase at the store- but for a third less. Even beats costco's pricing. Great deal
+8073,2,Playing APBA,I have played many types of games in my life but this is the only game that I have played well into my adulthood having started as a teenager. This is the next best thing to being at an actual ballgame and has brought many hours of good clean relaxation. I am a high school math teacher who uses the game in my classroom to demonstrate probability and statistics so I can vouch for its educational value. It is well worth the purchase price for any baseball fan.
+8074,2,Guaranteed Platinum...,"I have quite an eclectic musical taste-jazz, jazz fusion, latin music, hip-hop, etc. Thus I don't listen to too much of the pop and college radio stuff. I just happend to be flipping across the dial and was then mesmerized by the sound of 'Wedding Day'. If this record ever gets mainstream airplay, it's guaranteed Platinum. I have never heard such a wonderful sounding band. The lady's vocals are so sweet and captivating, and the music is very smart and original. I missed catching them here in Atlanta at their release party, but I'm going to get the CD today."
+8075,1,One of her books I could not get through,Just such hard reading. I've read several of her other books and really enjoyed them. This is one I would not recommend.
+8076,2,I REALLY LIKED IT,"This book gets right to the point, and is written in an easy to read and understand style. It covers all aspects of the business and gives a lot of good examples and strategies for dealing with situations. From start-up to follow-up it explains things clearly, focusing on sound controls and operating profitably. The business plan section is particularly good, and the other parts, service systems, equipment layout, production management, etc. are all helpful. Both my partner and I have copies and like it."
+8077,1,Bored to tears,I finally gave up two weeks into trying to read this one. It just never caught my attention. I wanted to keep going since the reviews were good and I've found Kalla's other books very readable. This one just felt overly dragged out and uninteresting.
+8078,2,"Good, intelligent look at the modern Supreme Court","This is an excellent book showing the behind the scenes decision making process of the Supreme Court. It is hard to read this book and not become cynical about the Supreme Court, however, I think scrutinized under the proper wattage light, this book could be seen as having a potentially happy ending. I would recommend this book highly to anyone in the legal profession, it is an intelligent narrative of the many decisions in two areas of the law, death penalty and habeas corpus, and abortion. It is also an excellent inside look into the politics of the selection process of Justices and the politics inside the Court."
+8079,1,Completly Wrong,"This book is obviously the work of someone who has never ever deployed as an real sniper who had to use the heavy system in the real world. It would appear that the author has worked with the system in a school environment only. Most of the information contained in this book are useless and the author's opinions seem to drive the content. Anyone who has to really use these systems would be best advised not to use this information because it is WRONG! To use a surveyers instrument for ranging in a combat environment is irresponsible to say the least given the current systems available. The author says that a lazer can be detected which is why he advocates the theodolites use. This is the statement of an amatuer who has never deployed and had to use the system for real. His mission planning and firing sequence are ridiculous and a sure why to get killed in combat. Given the price of the book, it is a hugely overpriced fictional novel.."
+8080,2,"Funny, but not as inspiring as ""Truman Show""","So many similarities between this and ""Truman"" make it worth a peek. Lacks the same level of human emotion but still good fun for anybody looking for a way out of life."
+8081,1,Great while it lasted.,"Was great, gave nice mist, but it started leaking at the adhered base after a while and wouldn't spray thereafter. I took great care to release the pressure when not in use too. The second one, the plunger broke. I received a replacement, but it started leaking too. Too bad though, the size and portability was convenient. Manufacturer needs to conduct serious quality control measures."
+8082,2,Very Very Interesting book,"Well what can I say. I've read them all, witchcraft, welsh history, philosophy, medicine, But this book actually kept my attention for more than 10 minutes. Excellent Read. Don't know about the claims, but I'm waiting to be convinced."
+8083,1,Great... if you don't want to many facts.,Great... if you don't want to many facts.Lots of soaring photos and pretty sunsets but not lots of facts or historical info.To bad as I was looking for some substance.
+8084,1,An honest question,"When the stench of a movie offends one's delicate nasal hairs, is it time to complain? Me thinketh this stinketh!"
+8085,1,too much fluff,"This book could have been half as long if Birch wasn't so interested in talking about herself. For the most part, this is book about why Birch practices yoga.Certainly there is a lot of quality content here, but it is sparse and has been covered more thoroughly by other authors (Schiffmann and Farhi for philosophy, Kraftsow for yoga therapy, and David Swenson for asanas).The program which Birch recommends is basically a watered-down ashtanga yoga workout in the primary series, with a few embellishments.When this book was initially released, it would have been a very valuable addition to any yogi's library. However, with the current selection of books and videos covering this subject, it has become obsolete and unneccessary."
+8086,2,It's all in the technique,"I think this is the best style of cork remover as it saves the integrity of the cork so one doesn't get pieces of cork in the wine. I own several of this style of varying brands. The trick is to gently rock the prongs on either side of the cork until it is completely touching the top of the cork. Then as you are removing the cork, do so in a pulling clockwise twist motion. I've never had any problem, but a friend thinks this style is a pain and I think the same of her conventional cork damaging corkscrew. Once you get the knack of it, you'll quit using the conventional style."
+8087,1,not for a K1,"I'm very dissapointed... install the tool but it does not recognize my K1s... reinstall, install, try to update it and the K1 is not in the list of compatible phones for this software... waste of money... it should come with the phone... at least I can use the cable to download pictures, songs and movies to the memory card. Make sure there is an update for this software about the K1 before buy it."
+8088,2,Lukas Rossi is mesmerizing!!!,"Lukas Rossi is totally addicting. He is one heck of a stage performer. I love his voice, his look, his writing, almost everything about him. He is the real thing. I saw Supernova in Dallas and they were Wonderful! This album is some of Lukas Rossi, but not the absolute best. Keep watching and supporting him and you will not be disapointed. He will come into his own. His older stuff with Rise Electric is really good! If you get a chance to see him live don't miss it. It will be one of the best shows you will see. He is captivating. Lukas Rossi is a real Rock Star, but I don't think he really knows that yet."
+8089,2,It covers a lot of material,This book covers a lot of different aspects of the Illustrator program. The only thing I didn't like about it was the texture of the paper it was printed on.
+8090,1,Fell apart,My son played with this for one day and it already fell apart. He is really upset. THANKS ALOT!
+8091,1,Shot after a year and a half,"When I first used this Coffee Maker I fell in love, It worked great and made one heck of a cup of coffee....As much care as I showed this thing I thought it would last forever. That was however not the case, ..."
+8092,2,Nice Lantern,"This lantern is sturdy built. It a thicker plastic outside, than the one I had. I believe the battery is what gives it more weight. It is not real heavy and I can still lift it with no problem. It is just different than the one I had, and takes getting use to it. I have not had to actually use it for a power outage as of yet, but have turned it on to see how it does, and it works good. I like the looks of it, and am glad I chose this one. I believe it to be a good lantern and would recommend it.It qualified for the super saver shipping at Amazon, so shipping was free. I like those type of deals.I believe this lantern is going to last a long time."
+8093,2,Complete opera experience,The two stars of thie performance are the top of their fields. Both have excellent voices and are very good actors. The music is delightful and full of humor. A great combination.
+8094,2,Excellent Book,Excellent book- much better than the movie that it was made into- a lot more involved - if I can find another book he has written I will probally buy it also
+8095,1,Wrong product,I ordered Nite White Excel Turbo ACP from Smile Medic and paid for the Turbo version. I received the cheaper product - Nite White ACP. I am currently trying to contact the seller to see if they will correct their order. Buyers beware- Nite White ACP and Nite White Turbo are not the same product. The turbo is more effective and more expensive. Do not accept the cheaper version.
+8096,2,Great Show,"Very thought provoking, suspenseful, and adventurous! With endearing characters. The writers accomplish the task of balancing action with drama so that it appeals to a variety of audiences."
+8097,2,truth in a bottle,"Reading this book was like opening a capped bottle. A fresh wind took over my life when I opened the book and started to read. At 20, I was becoming disillusioned with religion, it seemed dominating and fake. Conversations with God gave a realistic explanation of God and religion. Walsh asked questions that any human person would ask God if they were truthful to themself. The Book was not heretic, but rather inspirational. It provides hope for persons who fear God; it gives faith to unbelievers that God is not a distant feature of brimstone and fire. I would like to say thank you to the author. He may have never guessed that his work could be so inspirational or historical. But I believe this is a book that everyone should read...with an open mind."
+8098,2,You will love it or hate. Episodal,"I remember watching this show on the original Sci-Fi channel back in the day. It was Farscape or Lexx (equally bizarre show). The concept is intriguing, the characters are solid and the imagination of the writers, set directors and costumers, make up artists is exceptional. Now, that I am watching in sequence from the beginning, I am understanding the subtleties much better. However, each episode is different and can be fairly lame or really intense. It will take me a while to get through, but enjoyable all the same."
+8099,1,"Elefun does not work, do not buy it!!","Elefun simply does not work. The motor is very weak. It is not strong enough to blow the butterflies off the bottom. I bought 3 different ones and none of them worked. I called Hasbro and they sent me one, it does not work either."
+8100,2,Beloved Music...Beloved Patton.,"I truly love this music! Jerry Goldsmith hascontributed a great concert repertoire to the glorious movie Patton.I like the CD and movie so much, that I bought a biography book on Patton and read it over and over. General Patton is truly the best general of the 20th Century. The CD here illustrates the fine qualities of this man...they demonstrate his passion, his lust to kill, his leadership, the pomp of him, and the glorification of war. Jerry Goldsmith is one of the best movie composers ever..he has inspired many like John Williams, Hans Zimmer, and even Danny Elfman to write great theatrical works! Congrats to you all!"
+8101,2,A Royal Flush,"This movie is the best. From the opening scene to the last it moves like a now defunct L.I.R.R. bar-car. Mike, Tommy, Debbie-you'll feel like you've known them your entire life. The bar ""Trees Lounge"" is what defines everyone. Whether they used to go there and grew up and started families, or new in town and just want to get stoned, or only 17 and trying to act older or in Tommy's place-Just Can't Leave, the bar will stay and the people will come. Somebody please tell Steve B. to make a sequel but I doubt it will come close. I use to go to my local ""Trees"" but, like Tommy, life was getting dreary. So now instead I'll pop in T.L. on DVD, crack open a 6 pack, light a butt and kick back and relax. A masterpiece for those ""in the know."""
+8102,2,A must have for your yoga collection,"By far Shiva Rea's best yoga dvd. The yoga matrix allows you to create your own sequences dependant on how you would like to work in each practice. Shiva Rea gives plenty of options to allow you to work to your own level and yet the challenges are still there for you to aim for.On the dvd is also technical instructionals, on the Bandhas and allignment, which are helpful and informative.There is also plenty on meditation and pranyama.Shiva Rea's freeform yoga demonstration is a delight to see.There are interviews with renowned yogis - p.s. I don't really understand what the yoga instructor who demonstrated the different moods with his face was doing but it was very interesting to watch."
+8103,2,great,"i would have given this a 5 star review, but this is censored. all the foul language is edited out. but its still a great dvd set."
+8104,1,Broken,"Used it for Toyota RAV4, the filter was on pretty tight from the last dealer change? The quality didn't seem that great either."
+8105,1,Bland and uninspired,"Unfortunately the downward trend begun with ""Picnic"" and continued with ""Walking Distance"" continues with this CD. Definitely REK's worst effort to date."
+8106,2,USB Car Cigarette,"Good product, a lot more durable than the average car cigarette charger. It seems like it will last a pretty long time."
+8107,1,Turns off too soon and too often,"This product's safety feature is overly safe and you can't even warm your feet properly but what it's kicking off...and it takes forever for the sensor to cool to the point where it will kick back on. Not even worth $20, let alone this price tag. It certainly is quiet though....mostly because it hardly ever kicks on."
+8108,2,Excellent book.,"A quick review, perhaps more of a vote, than anything else. Over the years I've read dozens of Vietnam War history books and memoirs. This was undoubtedly one of the best and the only one I've read twice. Written by a BBC news team, the work is very balanced and respectful of the courage displayed by both the American and Australian ""Tunnel Rats"" as well as the Vietnamese guerrillas who lived and fought from the tunnels. Although I don't think it contains anything that is offensive to Americans, this work is easily available in pirated editions throughout the nation of Vietnam today where it is hawked by vendors near the battlefields of the war, including the actual Tunnels of Cu Chi, now basically a tourist trap."
+8109,1,DISAPPOINTED,"Received my chocolate duvet set a week ago. I think it is worth about 10 bucks.There is no substance, just thin flimsy material. I read a review that it faded, so I washed it and it did fade a bit. It must have shrunk because my comforter is too big and is now bunched up inside the duvet.I did like the look of the chocolate suede in my bed room.Last night I found that it was hard to keep on the bed. The bottom lining is a taffeta and slide, slide, slide all over the place. I woke up this morning with two thirds of it in the floor. My bed has no foot board, but good luck keeping it where you want it.Mine will slide on over to GoodWill donation box."
+8110,2,Another great album from Serv-On!,"This is an overall great album from Serv. The best songs are Gotta Get Dat, Tak-A-Sip. I Want Lose, Fakeboyz,Fakegirlz and Xtra-Hot. I recommend getting this album if you like South or Hardcore Rap."
+8111,1,Too heavy and it doesn't heat the water!,If you want to superheat your water first and then carry it over to this behemoth and then work up a heck of a sweat pushing it around then here it is. Otherwise it's a cruel joke.
+8112,2,A very good and satisfying read.,"This is one of the best books I have read in a long time. I could believe this book really happened and it makes you not want to put it down.I found myself wanting to ""save"" it when I got to the last 25 pages. I hope Nancy Turner writes another....it was simply great."
+8113,1,"Not white, plan on using something heavy to keep it straight","I'm pretty sure that I read somewhere this was a white cord protector, not beige or ivory. It came like a beige, and it took forever to straighten out. Cutting it was easy. But the straightening out took a while, and it still isn't perfect. The tape they gave you isn't worth much, and just a fancy packing tape. Plan on using some for of 3M or velcro type tape, because the tape provided will not hold.Not very satisfied with the outcome of this product, will not buy from again. I have sense given up on thinking it'll straighten out and removed this product from my floor"
+8114,2,Circles,"They are metal, fairly sturdy, and circles. Concentric circles. I like them, I like their tin, I like how they nest. I appreciate the lip at the top. On the whole they are the best thing to ever happen to my scones and biscuits."
+8115,2,A Superb Copland,"The greatest compostions by the greatest American composer conducted by himself. What more is there to say? This is a unique pleasure from beginning to end.Kees van Tilburg, The Netherlands"
+8116,1,Poor Quality Control,"I'm afraid I wasn't able to judge the annoying alarm for myself, as the delivered unit had a cracked and crumbling case (the bottom is plastic), which was obviously done at the factory as the box and even the styrofoam was intact. The replacement unit just arrived, and has a broken temperature knob, again with no outside damage. So I'm sitting this one out and looking for another brand. Quality control counts, especially for an electrical product you'll expect to use for decades. Sorry Villaware, but I just can't trust it."
+8117,2,A Treat for Horror Fans: Real Fun is Back!!!,"Drag Me to Hell is a great film in the sense that it is so ridiculous that it works: so cliche, so gross, you can't help but be mesmerized at the Raimi Brothers' genius and love for horror in its true form. This movie has been brilliantly reviewed by others here, so I will be succinct here by just saying: this movie is worth seeing at any time of the year, and is REFRESHING!!! Enjoy!"
+8118,2,Challenging the Christian Status Quo,"McManus challenges comfortable Christians to face a God who calls them to more than a satisfied faith. The term Barbarian turns out to be a good thing, but the white, upper middle class men in my Bible study kept having a hard time with trying to think barbaric thoughts. It is worth getting past that to the core truth that God is not safe, this faith is not weak, our cause is great and our opportunities are boundless. Perfect for a men's group."
+8119,2,Why you should buy this CD,"OK Go is one of those bands that anyone, no matter who they are (with the possible exception of those located in a geriatric ward somewher of the coast of ohio) can listen to their CDs and find at LEAST one song they love (and if they're super cool, enojy the CD as a whole)so, listen to OK Go!-joan"
+8120,2,fast and pretty,"I ordered the silver one Wed. and recieved it Fri.There is a lot to read, you can't idiot your way through, but it does a lot so I don't mind. Besides, it is really pretty and much more compact than I thought it would be. I am a petite gal who never works out and I was able to lift it. I would have liked more pictures in the instruction manual. I used my rack wrong the first time."
+8121,2,snow/snow 2 brain freeze,LOVED THE MOVIES. VERY PROMPT GETTING MY MOVIES TO ME. WILL GLADLY USE YOU AGAIN.
+8122,1,Old information,"If this book is a 2010 edition, then these reviews are very old. Where are the new reviews? Does anyone proof the reviews or am I actually looking at a book that's 10 years old?"
+8123,2,Sabroso,Reune las mejores canciones de todo el trayecto de estos grandes de la Sala. Digno de Comprar.
+8124,2,Hot Time in the Old South,"Pearl and Kat Wilde and all the Wilde women through the generations are beautiful and cannot seem to keep their panties on. However, it is not graphic or gross, just saucy and spicy. It is really interesting to picture a brothel turning the local economy around in a one horse Southern town that has seen better days. Enjoyable read even though you just want to shake the main characters sometimes and give them a good ""talking to""! Power Path to Love"
+8125,2,4.5 star - 5th solo effort from Eiht,"Eiht's second album on Hoo Bangin is another good one. The only problem with it is there's only 11 songs, but it's a good cd all Eiht fans need to get a copy. It has 1 classic, 2 ok songs and the other 9 are all good. Production is good and is handled by Young Tre (5 songs), Eiht & Caviar (2 songs each), and DJ Slip, and Binky MAck each do 1 song. Guests are a little more then he usually ahs on his albums. If only he got the airplay he deserves at least on the east coast (couldn't say for the west -much like Spice 1 or DJ Quik and many other Cali rappers) he'd have at least 10 million solo records sold and a bunch of platinum plaques.#2 - 8.5 (f/ Techniec)#3 - 9 (f/ mack 10 & techniec)#4 - 8#5 - 8.5 (f/ mack 10)#6 - 8 (f/ soultre)#7 - 9#8 - 9.5 (f/ binky mack)#9 - 8.5#10 - 7 (has a rock beat to it)#11 - 7#12 - 10 (classic)b.

+8126,2,Not quite as advertised,"As others have commented, this memory runs at 5-5-5-18 and 800mhz at 1.8v by default. You must enter your PC's bios and turn up the memory voltage in order to achieve the maximum speed. This results in the memory running hotter, possibly shortening the lifespan, and introducing an element of instability to the system. Despite the nice cooling fins I chose to leave the memory settings on auto and accept the default settings. That said, the memory was a definite upgrade to my previous ram. It installed and ran perfectly right from the start and there is a modest but noticeable improvement in my PC's performance. I am happy with the results."
+8127,2,Beautiful Doll,"My mother-in-law purchased this for my daughter's 7th birthday. The reason she purchased this doll is that my daughter's name is Mattie(spelled the same way) Which we just loved the idea. Anyway, when I opened the box, I could not believe how beautiful this doll actually was. Simply GORGEOUS! Along with the baby powder smell,& adorable outfit she was beautiful, my daughter fell in love with the doll instantly. I did not want her to play with the doll, I wanted to put it back for her when she gets older, therefore I had to purchase another. Absolutley beautiful doll. Can't go wrong!"
+8128,1,Nice try...poor/low tech,"The quality of the sound & audio was distracting to my kids & the quickly lost interest. Also, the characters voice was frightful at times....my kids are 3 & 5"
+8129,2,Wow!,"Anyone who owns a Jetta and has the original bulbs knows how weak they are in all conditions. Mix that with lenses that have been 'tarnished' with the years of dirt and grime you know how difficult it is to see with the original bulbs. I strongly recommend these bulbs. They are exponentially safer than the original. You will see an immediate difference and your line of sight will significantly increase. Night vision will be increased so much that you will not drive in fear of not seeing what's in front of you. Excellent safety increase and again, strongly recommended!"
+8130,1,Don't bother with this one,"I've had this router for about a year when it became necessary to block access to a web site by my teen aged daughter. I read the instructions, contacted on line support 3 times, phone support 4 times and finally resolved the issue with the most ridiculous set of requirements. To block a web site you must first create a policy for 6 days of the week and another for the other day of the week. Then you must enter the MAC address of each of the computers on the network to which the policies apply.Each time I called technical support I had to explain the issue even though they had transcripts and information from the prior contacts. One of the most frustrating experiences I've ever had.Save yourself some trouble and buy a different brand."
+8131,2,Works good on my iMac G5,"I haven't used all the features yet, but it seems to open almost any Windows doc file. The only problem I have is that it won't install on my TiBook and it won't register with Microsoft.I'm using Word 2001 on my TiBook."
+8132,1,Very Misleading,This video was simply a venue for the political climate at that time towards the adult film industry. There is very littlefootage of the actual movie or Linda Lovelace. It was basically crap with a pretty wrapper.
+8133,2,Awesome Soundtrack!,"I loved this movie and the soundtrack! The vocals are excellent and so are the lyrics. Most of the songs are super but I didn't like My Lovey Dovey baby. It is sooooooooooooooo annoying! but all the songs overide that icky track.My favorite songs are Seize the Day, Sante Fe, and The World Will Know.I reccomend this CD to anyone who loved the movie."
+8134,2,Hotamale!!!!!!,"I finally got a chance to read this book (after it passed through several hands at work). It was worth the wait and was everything everyone said it would be. It's just like J.J. from Good Times says, ""it's DY-NO-MITE! Readers, you need to read this novel. It's a pageturner that is entertaining and educational. I loved it!"
+8135,2,Perfect everyday headphones for the price!,"Title says it all, these things are well worth the very little money they cost, especially if you tend to go through ear buds as much as I do. Can't comment on how long they will last, but they seem better quality than many other more expensive ear buds I've purchased. I will be recommending these to friends and family!"
+8136,1,How do you use it? No users; manual!!!,"The fancy packaging has plenty of space for an users' manual. Spend less on fancy packagimg and more on making the software useful for the consumer! As it is, the over-priced program is completely useless to me!"
+8137,1,Lame.,"This game is jut awful. All of the songs are covers which stops the player from taking anything seriously. The ""dancing"" portion of the game is just a bunch of random Wii remote motions that you need to come up with to make the weird avatars move around and score points based on if you are on beat or not. There is no structure on how to dance. The singing part has poor pitch recognition (or maybe I'm just a bad singer :D ) and just isn't fun. Kind of a weird game... there are way more fun dancing games like Just Dance, and I suggest making better use of the shower to get your singing fix for the day."
+8138,1,Don't bother ordering it. You will not get a 10 pack like stated,3 Times in a row I got the wrong item. It was suppose to be a 10 pack. Avoid this item.
+8139,1,This is a gimmick!,"When I first learned about the Germ Guardian, I thought, ""Wow! I've just got to have it!"" The manufacturers claimed that it was tested and found effective by the Harvard School of Public Health so I was impressed and ordered it. It turned out to be a slick looking product, space age and all and it looked good in the house but unfortunately, that's the only good thing I can say about it because after 5 days, my sneezing (I have allergic rhinitis) was no better, I felt the same as I did before it arrived and then, one day, I came down with an absolutely severe allergic attack and this thing did absolutely, 100% NOTHING!! So I have sent it back for refund. I don't recommend it at all and I feel that the whole thing is just a big bad gimmick."
+8140,1,I really didn't like this juicer,"This is the first Amazon review I have written. I bought this juicer after seeing how popular it is, but I returned it after one use. This is a beautiful and fast appliance, but I don't think the juice is as healthy other ""older"" juicers out there. Plus, I really hated the noise. I felt like I was killing a small animal.I did a froth/taste test with an old school Champion juicer and the Breville juice 1) had TONS more frothy stuff, 2) didn't taste as rich, 3) had parts that were easy to clean, but TOO big. I'm much happier with my hand-me-down Champion.If you are juicing a couple times a week for yourself and want the healthiest juice possible (enzymes included!), DON'T buy the Breville. It's a pretty package without any personality."
+8141,1,Very Hard to Use!!,I bought this machine because I'm pregnant and I needed a safe alternative to the dangers of walking outside and walking in the heat this summer. The product description fails to mention that the inclines are both very steep. I can't even stay on this treadmill without hanging on to the rails for dear life!! As soon as I start walking I feel like I need to run to keep up with the machine. This was a total waste of money.
+8142,1,Head fell off,"The tripod head fell off literally the first time that I used it. There is no way to screw it back on. If I had had a camera on it it would have fallen right off and broken. Terrible quality, don't buy it. Seriously."
+8143,1,"Well Played, But Not What I Was Looking For","The University of Michigan band plays these 41 songs very well. However, the style is not what I was looking for. I wanted to hear the fight songs the way I would hear them on Saturday afternoon at the stadium. Instead, they play the music way I would hear it at the end-of-the-year sit-down concert in the auditorium. Even with their own ""The Victors"" fight song. Not the CD I would play to get pumped up for the big game. If you're looking for the marching band type of sound, try ""Touchdown!"" by Florida State's band. It's available here on Amazon.com."
+8144,2,Clay Aiken is a star,"After listening to The Way and Solitaire, I just have to say that this man continually amazes me with his vocal talent. I had heard The Way before and loved it, but this is the first time I have heard him sing Solitaire and it blew me away! His vocals and emotion are the best I've heard from any singer. This is now and forever a Clay Aiken song. Absolutely amazing!"
+8145,1,Boring and lacklustre,"Bad effort by RUSH. A IRon Maiden, Van Halen, Def Leppard, Ozzy and others artists, they just can't be so great anymore."
+8146,1,It could have been written in 40 pages,"This book felt like a series of random articles bloated out of proportion to end up being a book. Truth to be told, there were some interesting ideas and I enjoyed the first 40-50 pages but after that the author kept repeating himself, brought up ideas that had little connection to the whole topic and did not make too much effort to explain their relevance. I struggled through the last 150 pages.I started his other bestseller book, Blink, couple of months back: it was the same incoherent mass of information so I quit somewhere around the hundredth page after the writer has written down all he knows and started repeating the same ideas over and over again. Based on the structure of Tipping Point I don't think I have missed anything as he tends to start with all his brilliant findings and then just maundering through the rest of the book."
+8147,1,"Awful ""voice"" for this character",Selma Blair did not understand this character. Her tone of voice is really unappealing. I am very disappointed and will not use this in my class. Poor product.
+8148,2,High School Backpack,"I especially love the color of this backpack, it is very cute, however since this backpack only has two pockets it does not have a lot of space for textbooks. Other than the space issue it is a very nice backpack."
+8149,2,"Back off man, I'm a scientist","This film is at least as funny, if not more funny, as when it first aired in 1984. 3 parapsychologists of varied interest and sincerity discover there truly are ghosts. When they are kicked out of the university and forced to work in the private sector they are met with surprising success. It turns out a spirit assault is being leveled against humanity and these brave souls along with some hired help will stand against the forces of a nether world.Some great lines include:Back off man, I'm a scientistOk. So. She's a dog.No human would ever stack books like this.He slimed me."
+8150,2,Highly recommend it!,"This story was such an interesting read. The authors really did a good job of weaving the story with humor, longing, and love. I purchased two more for family members"
+8151,1,Terrible,These might have worked better if I had bought different screws. I just couldn't get these to work at all.
+8152,1,ice and frozen gutters,Easy Heat ADKS-300 60-Foot Roof Snow De-Icing KitThis stopped working before the first year I had it .Now it is frozen in my gutters. I had to call Pakistan and I sent pictures. They wanted me to hire an electrician. Amazon has a 30 return policy and I'm still waiting to hear back from eazy heat . It worked great for the first month and was off all summer. I think they should last more than a few months.After persistance the company sent me a new one.Thanks
+8153,1,Bob's trying to be Tony -- it's not working,"This is, frankly, a bizarre workout. First of all, it's very clear that Bob is trying to toughen up his nice-guy image and be more like Tony from P90X. Evidence: He's sporting a goatee and he's groping the two yoga ladies in his routine -- and I really mean groping -- constantly. (He does not grope, or even touch, the man.) Secondly, he's borrowed P90X's count-down timer. Thirdly, some parts of the routine are very similar to the P90X yoga.The thing is, none of that would bother me if this was a good workout. It's not. Actually, Bob's biggest loser Yoga DVD is much harder. And he's still acting like a nice guy -- not like a yoga molester.Do not waste your money on this. It's not hard and it's totally annoying watch this new Bob, whoever he is. He's not Tony, that's for sure."
+8154,2,Refreshing!,This is one of my favorites. I'm on my third bottle and will continue to wear this as long as it's being sold.
+8155,2,Amazing,I absolutely love CSI Miami! I hate that they arn't making any more episode! This was one of my favorite episodes which is why I downloaded it.
+8156,2,Neem,A most interesting book. I was unaware that there were so many uses from the neem plant. I went to the plant store and purchased a plant next day.
+8157,2,one of the best,This is one of the best and most comprehensive of the whale and dolphin books currently out on the market right now. It features extra-ordinary pictures and is just packed with information (from biology and evolution to whale watching tips and spots). This is one of the gems in my private cetecean library. A must get for ardent whale and dolphin lovers!
+8158,1,Not quite,"This works for mild static, but isn't as effective as dryer sheets. Some loads still come out with static. I may switch to Method dryer sheets."
+8159,1,Typical,"Junkyard fodder. I'm not certain what the producers of this film were thinking. Whatever it was, this film is better set for a stent on ""LIFETIME"" television rather than the big screen, under the guise of a ""horror film"". This film is riddled with predictable scenes and blocking. The cinematography is most poor. I don't think one can blame the cast, they are professionals, they need/want work. I think all the players did their best with this horrid writing and direction."
+8160,2,"You'll love this book, unless you like all the reality TV out there today","I loved this book. The writing is funny, and it's a good-sized read - not too long, not too short. I especially enjoyed the author's main expose: our popular culture is getting less intelligent every year. Not that this is a sudden revelation; we all know it. But, the author presents the argument in a way we can all relate to (unless you like all the reality TV out there today)."
+8161,1,"For history buffs, not for memory techniques",I was disappointed in the book for it gives detailed history of Ricci's time but very little information on his actual memory palace techniques.
+8162,1,I never got my order,I can't rate the product because I never got it. I have attempted to contact the company without response. I will think twice before ordering online again.
+8163,1,Died within 2.5 Months,"I ordered the Penguin 200 and was very impressed when I fired it up for my wife's 30 Gallon tank. It seemed powerful and kept the water pretty clear.Now to put it into perspective on why I bought it. We had a smaller Penguin (I believe it was a 150?) on this tank and it died, I could not find any replacements in my local stores so I ordered it from Amazon. Received it a couple days back in Nov 2010 and now it is also dead.Over the past 3 years we have had multiple Marineland Penguin power filters on our small tank and this larger tank and everyone of them has died within 5-6 months. They offer a 3 year warranty, but by the time I pay ship it back, I might aswell buy new, which I have to do anyway to keep the fish alive.Guess I've learned my lesson about these, these things are junk. Looking for another brand."
+8164,2,One of my favorites,"I loved this book and read it several times as a young girl. There was something haunting about the story -- I still think of it now and again. It was one of the best entrees I had into the world of the past, and I think it contributed to my enduring interest in history."
+8165,1,Looks nice,"This cover disintegrated in a month or so. Yeah, you get what you pay for. This brand is not happening for me again."
+8166,1,Why Domingo?,"I loved the performance of the italian mezzo coloratura Cecilia Bartoli but I still think Domingo ought to be in stage to perform Verdi or something else. Thanks Good we have gardiner production. This is a different kind of opera. this is ""opera seria"", this is Mozart, and even Frank Loppardo could have done a better Job in the tittle role, of course this will not seel as the record compani wishes, but musically and with the same cast is the best option. Placido must join Pavarotti and Carreras to sing in the TV party of the World Cup. Sorry Placido fans, but time passes to everyone."
+8167,1,Flooded kitchen - thousands of $$ in damage,"Similarly to all the other reviews, we came home to find water gushing out of a crack in the filter. Kitchen flooded and water pouring into the basement. Thousands of $$ in damage to the kitchen and adjoining rooms. Like the others, we had no idea that the filter needed to be changed. We bought the house 1 year ago and hadn't realized we should check that filter. While I take responsibility for not changing it, failure of the filter should not result in a flooded house. I am removing the filter and having the water line go directly to the dispenser. I would rather pay the extra money and have a house filter added later. Make sure you change these filters, you do not want to deal with the consequences if you don't!!"
+8168,2,Bad quality,"I use to have one for my son from Melissa & Doug brand, with better quality, these one is only nice in the picture, but once you get it fisically looks ugly and with bad quality, is not the same my son use to have.If you want to get a goods pump gun, get the Melissa & Doug brand."
+8169,2,"Suprisingly well written, flows wonderfully","In the exceedingly complex series of events that went into the making of the Russian Revolution and its subsequent devolution into the communist government of Felix and Vladimir, Pipes makes another foray into clarity and meaning, and succeeds wonderfully.While this book might not interest the causal reader on Comunist Russia and her sattellites, it is as close to seamless reading as we will ever find for the ethnographer of violence in the Russian landscape.And what the hell, it still might interest the causual reader- I guarantee you will go away with a complete picture of an important period of time."
+8170,1,Overrated,I've seen Keller live a few times and every one of those shows was better than this DVD. This is a really mediocre show and it does not come close to showing his musical ability. The songs on here get tiresome because the entire DVD is only ONE show. They should have taken songs from different concerts so you could get a better idea of what he can do. Borrow this from a friend but don't buy it.
+8171,1,Disappointment all around,I used these bowls with a two year old that I nannied. The lids are really hard to pop on and off and the suction base only stick for the first few minutes. It does say not to microwave them which is something I overlooked on the first use and the rubber on the bottom warped and the bowl was ruined. I do admit that this was my fault in over looking but the fact that you can't reheat the food in them makes them really inconvenient to use unless you only want to serve fruit in them which who buys bowls with that soul purpose?I usually avoided these bowls and would have tossed them if they were my own.
+8172,2,Does the job well.,"I am 6 months pregnant with twins and I'm getting into the uncomfortable stage early. The belly is getting heavy and this support belt seems to do the trick. After being out and walking, I don't feel the lower abdominal pains, once I return home.My belly is not big enough for the support strip that goes on top of the belly; so I'm not sure if that extra support will be helpful at a later date. It does what the description says it does, gentle support and less pain felt."
+8173,1,Pretty illustrations but...,It's not a page turner. Some of it is simply not worth memorizing. I feel sorry for the students who got stuck with this pitiful offering.
+8174,2,This movie is SPELLBINDING,"Every nuance in this movie is sublime. Thornton assembles stunning cinematography, a menacing and melancholy soundtrack, flawless scripting, his own deft direction and stunning performances (who would've thought Dwight Yoakam could act?) to create a true masterpiece of horror, tragedy and redemption. If you haven't seen it yet, don't waste a second longer. Even the Coen Brothers' sublime ""Fargo"" is a lesser film."
+8175,2,Excellent Quality,"this compatible toner work excellent on my Xerox xd120f, and the price is great, in comparison with the original one, and the results are equal."
+8176,2,Very relaxing if you enjoy birds.,"I listened to both sides of this cassette tape and it really seems to relieve stress by allowing the brain to focus on the various sounds. There are many bird sounds on the tape and I definitely recognized the American Robin's call throughout. This is a blend of other sounds as well, church bells, a babbling brook, cows, crows, sheep and even insects buzzing. I was able to easily imagine myself sitting out in a meadow under a warm sun, smelling the flowers with a good book to read. I would recommend this recording for stress relief for people that enjoy hearing birds twittering. Side two of the tape is more bird sound intense."
+8177,1,Great band! All Music is too expensive.,"Great band! All Music is too expensive. I could buy a discount album for $5 and get a few hours of listening, or get a $5 bundle of games for 100s of hours of enjoyment... and each one includes a soundtrack! [...]"
+8178,2,Stomp rocks!,My 2 year old and 7 year old boys love this video. We saw a Stomp show earlier this year and they can't get enough of the beating and banging.
+8179,1,Wonder Woman first season,Warning do not buy! This must be a joke. Why say the first season when it clearly wrong I cant understand how you are still selling this garbage. It dose not say 1-4 on the flyer...........
+8180,2,enjoyable,"a great read, sort of like an updated Little House for the adult reader. Details about farm life including recipes & the like, but full of antics and stories of family life as well. overall, the author seems too disgruntled with her upbringing and almost makes that the overtone of the book. a fun book though."
+8181,1,I now know why they had book burnings...............,"I had high hopes for this book after all the hype it had been receiving. However, I was horribly disappointed. It should have been titled ""The Restauranters Guide To New York"". The parts that were not brain numbingly boring were so offensive, grotesque, and downright sick that this book was impossible to finish. It leaves a bad taste in the mouth for the human race, to think that there might just be someone that depraved out there. I had to throw this book away, I wasted $12 because I could never inflict it on someone else."
+8182,2,Necessary Foundational Information,"It is true. Not too many Americans are aware that the Founding Fathers called the Articles of Confederation of 1781 our, ""first Federal Consti-tution."" Mr. Jensen points out that they were the written expression of the political philosophy of the Declaration of Independence. If one understands the concept of local state sovereignty (or independence) as expressed in the Articles, then they will have a much better understanding of the argument between the Federal Government and the Confederate Government (1861-1865)which was only a continuation of the long argument over the nature of the Union of American States. (And, as one reviewer points out, it is an on going argument until this day.) All in all, it is an excellent read; and very pertinent information."
+8183,2,Coffee Table Book,"This is a great book for the coffee table. It has lots of beautiful color pictures with a brief history of the artist and the piece in the photo but if you are looking for ideas with detailed information on how to color metal using mediums other than paint, don't waste your time or money."
+8184,2,Totally awesome book!,"What a cool book! Even though I was very, very young during most of the '80s, I can actually remember a lot of the things Matthew Rettenmund discusses in this book - especially the music. Top 40 radio was always lots of fun during the '80s, before big corporate conglomerates took over most radio stations. The '80s was such a great time - the music rocked, and so did everything else! (The '80s saw Cyndi Lauper and Madonna rise to fame - what else can I say?) This is a funny book that makes for great dinnertime reading. I wonder, though, why one of my favorite '80s TV shows - You Can't Do That On Television - was never mentioned? Still, this book is a near-perfect and very witty reference to anything and everything from the ""Me Decade."" Like, totaly radical!"
+8185,2,Superior talent!,"Jesse is very talented, and I like several of the songs on this album. The best part of it is his guitar playing, not necessarily the arrangements. Cafe Mocha is the best track."
+8186,2,"Solid, works well",Simple feedback here...the stone works really well. I couldn't have been happier with the packaging it arrived in - very secure. I'd recommend this product.
+8187,2,Mr. Dickens slams industrial horror scenes.,"Charles Dickens, as is his custom, slams into so-called civilized 19th century British industrial scenes in a smoky place called Coketown. He writes with a sharp knife about poverty, hunger, cruel management and lack of compassion. Humor here is on the grim side."
+8188,2,Beautiful Pendant,"This is a very unique pendant, much larger that it appears in the photo. Everytime I wear it I get complements. Another great purchase from a great seller!"
+8189,1,Not in US format,Ordered this it came in and would not play. It was in UK region codes. Shipped this item as a gift ignorent to the fact it was coded for the UK region.
+8190,2,Sideburn Club Mix is a great cd,"this cd is awesome. all the songs were great remixes . this is the only lupin cd i own, but even though i havent heard the other ones, i think this a great cd."
+8191,2,Feeling young again,For those of you who tip the year scales over 50 this is a blast from the past from a group much loved and long forgotten.THe music has been re recorded and sosunds as fresh as the first time I heard it on LP vinyl - Anyone remember those big black things)
+8192,2,"No, it isn't as bad as the other guy says!","One day I decided I wanted to learn Russian. No, seriously. And I was at the bookstore, and completely on a whim I bought this book. Seriously? Yup. And so far it's been GREAT. I just recommend that you really take the time to try out each activity, and memorise the vocabulary. Yes, it's a little pricey for such a slim volume. But it works like gangbusters. (Heh. ""Gangbusters."") I can only devote an hour a day, at most, while reading on my lunch hour, with no homework time either because frankly when I get home I'm beat. And I'm already fluently reading the language. Okay, I don't know what the words actually MEAN yet, but it's a start! So I recommend this as a great way to get over our ""english"" letters, and move your brain into Cyrillic Gear."
+8193,2,The Great Escape = A Great Game,"Man, I started with the demo and I was instantly hooked. The graphics and realism were astounding! The sounds were pure and not choppy, along with the graphics. The plot (after watching the movie) was very accurate. This is truly one game that will rise to the top!"
+8194,1,Not quality...,"These black ballet flats were cute when they first came, but within a week they were scuffed and scratched. Very uncomfortable and illfitting - they slouched at the heel. The ""ribbon"" on the front snapped off when I stepped on it. They didn't even last for a month of wear, and they never had the cute ballet flat shape. Not even worth $20..."
+8195,2,neat idea,"these are great propped up in my son's crib. it gives him something to look at when he's hangin out in there. the cards are thick and quality material, as is the box they come in. i'm really happy with them, they're cute, quality and functional! great value at this price."
+8196,1,Nothing New,"Those familiar with the Battle of Midway will find nothing new here. On the contrary, the book is so full of errors and misconstructions of fact that it only further distorts the reasons behind the tragic slaughter of the U.S. torpedo planes and their aircrews during this famous battle. Much of the technical information cited in this book is outdated, inaccurate, or incorrectly analyzed, leading to erroneous errors and conclusions throughout the text. Readers wanting to know the real story to the U.S. torpedo planes would be better off obtaining a reprint of Lord's classic work Incredible Victory, Lundstrom's First Team, or the newly released Shattered Sword by Parshall and Tully."
+8197,2,GREAT BOOK!,"Totally LOVED TEMPTED!:) The lead Mary was so clever and I loved the monkey too. I got a kick out of how Mary helped the bratty daughter transform. Don't understand another reviewer's comments on Britton's writing because her books are so well-written. They make me laugh and make me cry. ... Britton's books are funny and emotional... a wonderful escape.... If you like a heroine with kick and a hero with [strength] and a heart, then TEMPTED is for you."
+8198,2,jessie s life in clifton,i think it was a dum stupid she is commiting suicide that is so dum i can think of a better way to solve the problem.i bet you are wondering what was the problem read the book to find out how stupid it is.
+8199,1,Horror!,I used this on my Cairn terrier mix. It seemed to work to strip the undercoat - but when finished I realized that it had also stripped a lot of her outer coat. What a nightmare!
+8200,2,shape review,I love this tape so much I am on my second copy. It is still good for me after 10 years. I am over 55 and find it both low impact enough for my aging body and yet challenging enough for my active side. Wonderful tape. I'm going to order an extra just in case!
+8201,1,so wanted to love it - but it doesn't last,"I bought this product on a lark thinking it would be a toy but I loved it - I liked being able to see the time on the ceiling - after 9 months it became inconsistent. When I emailed the company about it, I never received a reply. I tried changing all the batteries and it worked so so. After a year it died - out of warranty. I wanted to love it but I do not consider it dependable and I don't find the company responsive to customer inquries about product function. I would NOT recommend this brand."
+8202,1,Disappointed,"After hearing many great things about Lee Child and the Jack Reacher series, I thought I would give it a try....start from the beginning of the series.When determining if a book is good, I must have the 'gasp factor'....did i gasp because I never saw that coming...did I actually have to physically put the book down and go 'wow - never saw that one coming'....I never gasped, never put the book down for the wow factor....I saw everything coming a mile away....Disappointed."
+8203,1,My dog choked on the Edible Bone,"Warning to other dog owners: the edible Nylabones are extremely dangerous for dogs with a big & greedy appetite. My dog swallowed it whole within 30 seconds of giving it to her and choked on it. She was fully unconscious before I could dislodge the bone and breathe into her nose to bring her back to life... We almost lost her over this bone. If your dog is a greedy chewer or eater, then please don't buy edible Nylabones."
+8204,2,Dex Bottle Warmer Grab `N Go,I haven't used this one but I like that it's really compact & fits my diaper bag.
+8205,1,A bit to simple...,"Now, don't get me wrong. The idea of Fight Club is an interesting one. But the idea is the only thing which kept me from giving this novel a sone star rating. The writing just isn't very good. Everything is written in short, choppy sentences and it all seems so simple. Ack...the violence and sex in this book honestly didn't bother me very much, although I can see how it could bother OTHER people. All in all, violence is the tool of a simplistic author...it can be used with great skill and come off with great impact...or just come off...violent."
+8206,2,An Excellent Concise Reference to Evangelical Theology,"I first encountered this book when our church decided to use it as a text to teach the basic doctrines of the Bible. Since I was to be one of the teachers you can well imagine the number of hours I've spent with this book. I have always found it to be a faithful guide with a thorough subject and scripture index. It is easy to use it as a reference because of its fine indexing.I have found it to be consistent with the teachings of the Bible and to clearly and simply present the major doctrines of scripture. At the end of the book are 53 pages of appendices and a two page addenda which cover a variety of pertinent topics from ""The Gift of Tongues"" to ""Christian Forgiveness.""I recommend this book highly for any Christian library."
+8207,2,Works great...,"It took a little fine tuning, I guess to accommodate the age of my devices.This one is on my entertainment electronics. I'll be getting another one for my computer.I had originally planned to use a Kill-A-Watt, but just went straight to the smart strip."
+8208,2,Great Replacement,This item worked as a great replacement. There is no need to spend more money on the exact replacement by the manufacturer. This item does a great job and at a substantially lower price. I highly recommend it.
+8209,1,Misleading information - or downright lies,"This item arrived last night and I'm very disappointed. First, the listing has a choice of 32 ounce size or 52 ounce size. However in the body, it states it's 32 ounces so I thought ""Ok, maybe I can deal with it."" However, it only holds 24 ounces max. Since I ordered it to hold a mix I make for milk baths that creates 32 ounces, it's useless to me and I am returning.Shame on Amazon and the seller for giving such bad information and wasting my time!"
+8210,1,"Did They Really Need to Rip-Off Pamela Anderson ""V.I.P.""","Title of my review pretty much says it all. This show often copied the same plots as Pam Anderson's ""V.I.P."" which isn't saying a hell of a lot, but at least V.I.P. pulled theirs off with style. Boo.And of course they're releasing it on the same day as V.I.P. to confuse the marketplace and hope a few fools pick this disc set up instead. Double Boo."
+8211,1,Difficult to hold,"We have other cordless can openers in the past and this one really disappointed us. While this may be a really great can opener, it is difficult to hold while opening a can. We also found it to be very noisy. I would not recommend this product to and older person."
+8212,2,garmin nuvi,I liked the garmin. I took a trip with my kids and without my husband to Myrtle Beach . The garmin worked really well. I will be taking more trips without my husband.
+8213,1,OH...I'm shaking in my shoes! NOT!,"This book is not even scary! On the back of the book... scare the toughest buff? Yeah right! I'm 11 years old and it didn't even scare me for a sec! God, I can write scarier stories than him! I am very dissapointed! Thank god I didn't buy this book, I got it out of the school library! The reason why I gave it 2 stars is because of the creativity and how he writes...good wording, or whatever. I don't reccomend this book at all! Just a waste of time!"
+8214,1,DeWalt Missed the Boat on this one,"I have the first version of the DeWalt Radio and won't think about purchasing another one until DeWalt improves the battery drain issue, reception is horrible and drifts, should have a built in MP3 capable CD-R/DVD-R/DVD+R player. The aux input is a stupid idea. The Bosch unit is much closer to ideal, but all my cordless stuff is DeWalt......I hope DeWalt design teams read this and take it to heart......Do not purchase this unit!"
+8215,1,A Regular Album,"""Accept the Signal"" is a combination of dark, edgy and futuristic music, containing songs that play by their own rules and don`t stick to a particular formula. This experiment is somewhat interesting and worthwhile at parts, but fails to deliver a consistent, engaging recors. Some songs are good achievements, like the witty single ""King Kong"" or the subtle ""Girls"", even if the album is uneven and flawed. Those who like the Stone Roses, Primal Scream or Death in Vegas may give this one a try. A competent, though not terribly exciting effort."
+8216,1,Does Not Work,This is the only HDMI cable I have ever used which did not work. It is constructed with very small diameter cable. The video it produces is totally scrambled. Buyer beware.
+8217,2,"Short, but very sweet","Stereo Nights track 1 is amazing! Excellent vocoders, really catchy. The second song is sort of like filler and seems to be misplaced.The 3rd and last track is just the drum track for Stereo Nights, and it shows off Takkyu Ishino's knack for getting the percussion juuuuust right (and it's great for getting some drum samples too)."
+8218,2,The Reference,"This book is the most extensive collection of facts, I have ever seen. I have used this book in my years of enginering school, and it has everything from material descriptions, to ""find your own"" drag-coefficient calculations. Simply the best."
+8219,1,Not healthy in the long run,"Love 4 out of 6 blocks. Need to teach healthy habits by showing healthy choices of food- what happened to the veggies? Why would you put cake and cookies as food for infants... this is going to teach little ones to consider these items in the same category as fruits - this is very unhealthy for the child's mind. I wish they would get it right. Healthy ideas, healthy toys, healthy kids.... no junk food allowed. So you would have to throw out two blocks - then it is a bit expensive for only 4 blocks."
+8220,1,Weak,"It's clear the author is a brilliant physicist but the text would do well do offer some less applied applications and hit more on theory, I personally prefer Jame's Marsdan take on vector calculus and would at least recommend one of his texts as a supplement."
+8221,1,Two Thumbs Down,"Like Halo 2?Want to play a game like Halo 2 for the Xbox 360, but with a worse plot, worse gameplay, and worse live options?Then Quake 4 is for you. There may be Quake fans, but I'm sorry, this shooter is simply a regurgation with nothing new nor unique to offer. It is not worth paying for new, rent this game first."
+8222,1,Blah...So What??,"This collection of short stories is mildly interesting and compelling at parts, but as a whole it merely provides a bland and unsurprising read. There`s really nothing special or remarkable here, since Carver presents slices of life about lonely, depressed and lost american souls who haven`t much of a life. Some moments are intriguing (the short story ""Cathedral"", for instance, about a couple and a blind man), yet the overall result fails to rise above average, dull and bleak material. Certainly overrated, this book recieved more praise than it truly deserves.A letdown."
+8223,2,If you're looking for astronomical calculations you won't find them here,"I bought this book after it had been recommended to me as a good source for understanding how astronomical calculations (sunrise, sunset, dawn, dusk, etc) are made. While the book does go into some basic astronomy, the sought after calculations were not there.Still, for someone seeking to understand the Jewish calendar on the month level, this is a good text, well written and accurate. While I personally already had this knowledge and so it was not useful to me, anyone looking to understand the structure of the Jewish year would find it very helpful."
+8224,1,Difficult to apply.,"I was super excited to finally find a matte polish, but when it arrived and I tried to apply it it was very difficult. I would suggest maybe having a professional apply it. It also chipped very easily."
+8225,1,"I'm glad there's a 2nd edition, the first one needed help","Caveats: Although I have an MS in computer science this is my first book on design patters. Having said that...The best thing about this book is the title.I found the first edition of this book somewhat disapointing. It seemed to drag on terribly slowly in places. It seems that the authors relate much more to teaching and haven't quite hit their stride in writing on the same subjects. Interestingly, the most effective chapters were the shortest, those at the end of the first edition. They seemed to be little more than outlines hurridly gathered for press and they were the most concise and effective and not bogged down with tedious discussion.The book's layout was also diapointing. Among other things I didn't care for the margin notes. They were distracting and there were far too many to be effective.I'm looking forward to comparing other books on the subject.May subsequent editions shed more light."
+8226,1,Just stick a turd in your ear it sounds better.,"worst headphones i have ever bought my $10 Skull Candy buds sounded better. Sure it has clarity but who cares if it has absolutely no bass and yes i stuck them all the way in my ear and tried all of the different tips. luckily amazon is great about returns and i got a refund minus the shipping. unless you listen to pre-1940s music when bass was non existent in recordings then have at it buy these, but if you like bass drops then flee this page!!! So far i have had consistent success with Sony the best ear buds i have used are mdr-ex71 (the $40 ones not the $12) they have an amazing rang and don't max out easy plus at low volume are crystal clear. I work a software company and listen to music most of the day (i love music and have over 120gb of it) so that's my resume for anyone who may doubt that i know about good sound quality. I hope this helps :)"
+8227,1,So sad,"I was very excited to finally watch this movie after hearing all the hype, I love these kind of movies. But sadly after watching it twice, I have to say this [was disappointing] ! The first round I didn't quite get the whole story so I actually sat through the whole thing again a second time. Well, I think I got the story all right. Some areas were put together cleverly, the acting wasn't too bad, but the story itself is just terrible. Nothing exciting or original !! For those who compares this with Pulp Fiction or Memento, please don't ! Its nothing like them. The otheres were clever, this is plan stupid."
+8228,2,This is paradise!,"I was first introduced to IZ from 50 First Dates. The song ""Over the Rainbow"" was hauntingly beautiful. I just had to hear what else he sang. And, boy, I was truly impressed! IZ has such a beautiful, mellow voice that I can listen to him time and time again. And, I do!"
+8229,1,This is a lausy excuse for a book!,Classical example of how thw book shouldn't be written.I'm sorry for every cent I have spent on this publication!
+8230,2,Woman's View,"Hardly a pretty subject, but enlightening and rewarding to experience war from the devastating viewpoint of womankind - for a change."
+8231,2,Intelligent,"This book has been attacked by those who disagree with it, but I found it a clear and intelligent argument. Boyd shows the reader how he worked and how he arrived at his conclusions. This is a good, brief read for someone who wants to see a Protestant theologian at work.I teach Theology in college and sometimes recommend it on those grounds."
+8232,2,"classic s/m..recommend for novices,voyeurs","As a s/m voyeur/novice, i could appreciate this classic form of erotic literature. The author clearly understands the head play involved in a s/m relationship, and the ultimate sacrifices as a submissive/slave. Through the vehicle of lady ""O,"" the reader is taken through the emotional realm of s/m, while at the same time, given a peek of the true inner workings of bondage and sumbission."
+8233,1,"Original, but not for the whole family.","I definately, think that this movie is funny, original and great, but despite that its not for the whole family. There are references and jokes in there that shouldn't be heard by younger children, this movie is best for older children, teens, and adults. This is not a young children's movie because it includes crude humour and mild profanities."
+8234,2,"Beautifully Illustrated, Wonderful Detail","Just enough information for those in search of a better understanding of the human body. Sections of the book are broken down into the different organ systems, their many functions and processes. Several implications are described and detailed with full color graphics. I especially appreciate the book's symptoms table, which allows you to identify symptom characteristics, associated symptoms, other relevant factors, and advises on possible causes and actions. This book has a sturdy structure that will stand up to the test of time. It is constucted of high quality paper, cardstock, and has a short thick stature. A must have reference for those in the health industry or interested in anatomy."
+8235,2,Wonderful debut collection.,"Other Fish In The Sea' is a smart, moving, always surprising, and lovingly written collection of short stories that add up to a novella. Elly Fisher is the main character, a woman searching for love in all the wrong places -- even in time -- who comes to understand not only love but herself in the end. It's plain-spoken in beautifully observed language and detail. The marvelous thing about Elly and the other characters that populate the book is that Kusel doesn't contrive to make them artifically witty or hip -- unless they are. Instead the characters reflect real people: some damaged, some maturing, all people in process of becoming. The PW review here is all wrong and says more about the reviewer's need to read about fashionable 'chick lit' characters who aren't real, than being able to accept Kusel's characters who are. 'Other Fish in the Sea' is more lit than chick, and in the end it will move you and make you think ... and feel. I can't wait for the movie"
+8236,1,Way over-powered,"I thought the extra power would be great when using the dough hooks, since bread dough can be stiff, but it just flings the dough around then draws it up the hooks into a useless ball at the top. I gave it to Good Will."
+8237,2,The funniest sheep on TV,"More great episodes of ""Shaun the Sheep."" These have the uncut versions and are a bit longer than the ones shown on Disney Channel. What a hilarious sheep!"
+8238,1,This Could Have Been a Great Book,This had the potential to be a great book. It would have been had the author waited a few years and gotten some real experience. It's painfully evident that -- taking nothing away from her achievements -- she just does not have the depth to take hold of this subject and keep it moving in good order. I felt as if I were listening in on her cell phone conversations.
+8239,1,mediocre at best,"A fellow Nebraskan, I felt obligated to help out someone from my own state trying to continue earning a living by making music. But I have to say buying ""From Chaos"" was a terrible waste of fifteen dollars .311 is continuing to make playful funk-rap music that started in the early 90's and has since been beat to death by numerous bands. None of the lyrics are rememberable and the guitar hooks seem outdated and worn out. When the group tries to make a ballad of sorts on ""Amber"" it just makes me wince. Of course Nebraska isn't exactly a hotbed of funk music, so 311 probably didn't do too bad with the influences they grew up with. But this isn't a good album and I really wish I hadn't of wasted money on it."
+8240,1,Worst set ever,"This friends set was such a waste. The quality is horrible and almost every CD skips. And not just little skipping, it will skip entire episodes. Or multiple sections of an episode at a time. It's terrible. I hate that I have to spend more money on another set."
+8241,1,disappointing read,"As an avid book reader and lover of mysteries I must say I was very disappointed in this book. I had heard so much about Sue Grafton's ""alphabet"" books that I couldn't wait to read one. I can't say I would read another. Not enough character development & too many characters made for a rather slow-paced and dull book. I would at least like to care about the characters - especially if they're going to live or die. In this case, none mattered. You never felt anything towards them. I found Kinsey very boring. Characterize her a little more, Ms. Grafton if you want us to care. The ending of the book is probably one of the worst I've seen in awhile. ""I blew him away"". Yikes, is that the best you could come up with? Maybe since it is the first she wrote, I can cut her a break and try the next letter. Hopefully, I'll have more luck. I can't say I would waste any time on this first one."
+8242,1,not for chubby legged girls!,"these are super cute, BUT WILL NOT STAY ON CHUBBY-LEGGED babies!!! the leg opening, although featuring velcro, does not adjust properly to keep them on!"
+8243,1,waste of money,"It is just a fake, or something really bad has happen to invicta, cause it isn't what it used to be. Maybe looks fine, but the mechanics is terrible, the date changed every 12 hours and the hand got loose (minutes) only 3 weeks after I bought it. My old ugly Casio runs smoothly after 12 years. Run and seek for another option, maybe a Citizen. You'll thank me later."
+8244,2,The Real Royce,"rhymes: @@@@one of the most underated mc's in the game....rhymes arent great but that doesnt take away from a nice flow, ill delivery...rhymes are very well put together...production:@@@@Carlos ""6 July"" Broady laced royce wit some serious beats....the production on this album is on point...PLay Value: @@@@I can tell Im not gonna get tired of this album any time soon...Collabarations: @@@@@No collabs! ... good! im not really feelin the rest of ""d-elite""...he had to come out wit a serious album...and no better way to do it, than with just him on the lp....Overall: @@@@In my opinion this album does not have any flaws... Finally an official Royce album...Rock City 2.0 was a whole bunch of older songs thrown on an lp...so i dont even consider that an official lp...its gonna be one of the years best"
+8245,1,Family Reunion Not,I didn't care for the movie at all. There was not humor in it at all. Just stupid comments.
+8246,2,5 to the future,This book is about the future where T.V. Was part of the government and a T.V. Historical survivor series is putting 5 kids in the Artic to survive to the north pole. When Robert falls down the crevasse and Andrew saves him is my favorite part that sticks to my memory the best. Andrew is the most interesting because for a boy who does not have talents he finds more courage then a boy should have to find. My opinion change a lot because I thought all the kids would make it to the pole but I always knew that Hot Sauce would get what was coming to her. I'd recommend this book to those who believe you don't have to have talents to be brave.
+8247,2,Essential and fixable.,"Picked up one for a Traxxas Rustler 2wd that I bought used. Plastic does pop apart on occasion, but two plastic cable ties cured the problem."
+8248,2,2 Pac's Back !,This two Cd Set is a must buy for 2 Pac fans !!! It has 27 songs in total and brings Tupac Shakur back to his best form. Long live Makaveli. 2 Pac is rocking da house !!
+8249,1,Not top quality,"I agree with many of the other reviewers. First the quality of this toy is sub-par. The plastic structure is very flimsy. The middle part that you twist to spin around bends a great deal and is not sturdy enough to get a good twist. This leads to it being very hard to spin. Overall, I was very dissappointed since my son has never really used it and I remember loving this toy as a youngter."
+8250,2,One of the Best FPS of all time!,"Having played numerous amounts of video games over the years, I feel that I have a good sense of the difference between a good one and a bad one. Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, on the XBOX 360 was no doubt one of my favorite games of all time. Although the campaign lacked depth in its story at times, it was extremely intense and the graphics were awesome. The multilayer aspect of the game is what makes it great, though. Even though I have played COD4 online for over 10 days on Xbox Live, I never feel bored with it."
+8251,1,Mediocre book,"I found this book to be fairly readable, yet quite dull. In one word, this is a mediocre book. The characters in this book are flat. There are 2 brothers and 2 sisters, orphaned at a young age when their parents are killed in a terrorist bombing. As adults, they form a comedy troupe led by the oldest boy, Sam. Obviously, since the brothers and sisters are actors, you would expect some examples of their work incorporated into this book. However, there are no examples. You really have to guess what their performances are like, since the book is centered around them. This leaves no entertainment value to the book. You are, in effect, left wondering who these characters really are, and what they are really all about.I give this book 2 stars since it was not a terrible book. I simply think the author leaves you wondering what in tarnation was the point of this book having actors as main characters when they are dull and give you no indication that they can really act."
+8252,2,How can one not be charmed by Love?,"For our third encounter with Love Bukowski, we gladly join her as she travels across the pond to spend a term studying abroad in London. As we were in The Principles of Love and Piece, Love, & Happiness, we are drawn in by her intelligent and insightful writing, her exciting and adventurous experiences, and her intriguing and fascinating acquaintances.Although it can be an enjoyable and entertaining read on its own, I recommend that Love from London be read in the context of not only books one and two (mentioned above) but of the books to come.In The Principles of Love series, Emily Franklin has written a story that is never boring, populating it with characters who grab your interest. I can't wait to find out how all the pieces fit together for Love!"
+8253,1,plane insanity,"The author recounts numerous episodes that occurred during his flight attendant career. While many of these stories are entertaining they seem to be told in an ""I'm above this stuff/ chip on the shoulder way."" The book seems to lack the self deprecating and clever humor that would have improved the tales and added some sorely missing grace from the book. Mr. Hester doesn't seem like the type of flight attendant that I would have liked to have in the cabin with me on a long flight."
+8254,1,Constellation-al ain't sensational,"Hoover S3345 Constellation Vacuum Cleaner works fine on wood floors. It does a good job with the small brush and crevice tools also. BUT, it is ineffective, virtually worthless, on carpet, I should have read Consumer Reports first. I am very disappointed with this product."
+8255,1,"Seen it all online at ""Salon.com""","I read many of these online already. The book is slender, with big print and margins. I'm glad I borrowed it rather than buying it. I found the political essays less than interesting, and feel it will really date this book, unlike her others."
+8256,1,Pages missing,"I would have liked to know there were pages missing, because I would have bought it somewhere else."
+8257,2,vol 54 maiden voyage.,"i recommand this music book. i still like to go back and review stuff i haven't played for a while. i feel it just keeps me always playing something, wheather it's easy stuff or harder stuff it's just practice, practice, and besides practice makes perfect."
+8258,2,Sleek design,It was first time we had ordered a furniture from Amazon. This bed is very well made and looks very elegant. Assembling side boards was very easy but mattress frame was very tricky. took lot of trial and error. I would have liked if they had provided some kind of cap to cover holes.
+8259,1,not worth it,mediocre at best Story line was bad; dry and predictable only action scenes drew interest. they used one liners from previous movies.
+8260,1,Meh...,Put this in my Thermaltake Armor+MX VH8000 case and have not seen much of a difference in temp. The fan is NOT powerful... it acts to just lightly push some air out and not suck out heat. If you put your hand in back of it while its on you will know what I mean... the strength of the air coming out is not forceful at all. Kind of a waste for something taking up 2 PCI slots!With that said it is not very noisy and I left it in my case to take out some of the heat from the bottom of my case. On my next build I am probably going to leave this out.
+8261,1,DRIVER:PL FOR Wii DOES NOT SUPPORT STEERING WHEEL,"I own this game on PS2 and it is awesome. Not as great as the original Driver, but close. However, ON Wii, THIS GAME SUCKS because YOU CANNOT USE ANY Wii STEERING WHEEL with this game. NO STEERING WHEELS AT ALL!ON the Wii version, THE VERY STUPID MAKERS OF THIS Wii VERSION of DRIVER PL, must have been taking drugs when thinking it would be better to use the Nanchuck for driving. Very stupid! Wish I would have known the steering wheel was not able to use before buying this game. Anyways, I love all the Driver games on Playstation, and this Wii version was a total dissapointment. The makers of this game need to get some brains and TAKE THE ORIGINAL DRIVER GAME (from the old original PS1 system) AND PUT DRIVER 1 ON Will for use with the Wii steering wheel. Like I said, ALL the Driver games on PS & PS2 are great. Including Parallel Lines. However Wii OWNERS BEWARE! Get this version of Driver for PS2 and NOT Wii!"
+8262,2,Tammy Cochran still pretty good !,"Even though I will always remember her song tribute to her two brothers that passed on, I have the cd but don't remember the exact title without the cd in front of me...I think it is ""Angels in Waiting""? Anyway she still has a pretty voice on this album and the hit song, which is what the title of the album is after is AWESOME and the most memorable for me. It is a catchy tune with a good meaning. All of the songs on the cd she really put her blood, sweat and tears into. It is definately from the heart. I am just so glad she found a new WONDERFUL record label that continues to bring out her beautiful voice in the best possible way. I like it when country artists can put themselves into the music and I love it when they write or co-write the songs, you can tell. Keep up the good work Tammy!"
+8263,1,this is awful!!!,"Always have been an ardent fan of Thomas Harris..discovered him long before the critics and filmmakers..but Hannibal is an LSD dream gone bad! 200 pages into this 486 page book, I have just about surrendered. Poorly constructed and organized. locales changing from city to city,country to country almost constantly; characters entering the story and leaving almost instantaneously; our Ms Starling of the FBI,a fascinating character in Silence of the Lambs disappears on page 97 of Hannibal..ever to return? If one reads the critics..this is a book of near epic proportions,enhancing the author's reputation. Makes one wonder..what book they have been reading???"
+8264,1,"On hardback or paperback, this book is trash","I wasted my money with this book, don't make the same mistake"
+8265,2,Maximum Plus Alkaline Batteries,"Great little package for keeping your batteries in. Easy to open easy to close, yet wont accidentally come open when you don't want them to. Great batteries too as they last a long time."
+8266,2,dragon,good movie the grandkids really love itvery well donewould really recommend this movie especially if you have kids
+8267,1,What the hell? You get to substitute crap for what I order and pay for?,I ordered (and paid for) a pair of fifty foot VIDEO cables. In place of what I order and pay for I get a set of 50 foot AUDIO cables. Video IS different than audio. I ordered and paid for it overnight because I needed it today. Now I have to find a physical store that is open Saturdays and has them and drive there. If I have time. Thanks.
+8268,1,Very surprised... not in a good way. :o(,"Let me start by saying I did not read any reviews before purchasing this... wish I had. I assumed it would be a ""kid friendly"" movie. I was shocked that there was cussing in this movie.... why is that necessary???"
+8269,2,Very helpful for those on the road...,"As a frequent traveller and someone interested in specific running goals, (as opposed to ""just going out for a jog"") the Forerunner 305 has been extremely helpful.My wife originally got me the Forerunner 405 BUT it was too small for my wrist. (The 305 has a larger, alternate wrist strap). My wife refers to the 305 as a ""laptop for the wrist"" but it is not heavy or cumbersome - the buttons are clearly marked and easy to use.The various training workouts are helpful and easy to program (pace / distance / time / interval workouts...). I have had no problems with the GPS - just remember to turn the unit on when you are outside and ready to run (to ensure GPS reception). Aural alerts are helpful and there are enough functions to check out that can keep you occupied on long runs.I have not explored all of the training or navigation functions on the 305 but I would venture to say that there are more than the average runner would need to use."
+8270,2,good but a little noisy,"Great airflow, good size. fits in the window nicely (horizontal or vertical). I guess I was expecting a little more quiet operations. It is not bad (I sleep with the fan on) but louder than I expected."
+8271,2,Another great Irish quartet...,"After seeing the video for So Young, which is a fantastic song, I realized I had to get this album. The girls and Jim are so adorable. This album is filled to the brim with the lucky of the Irish that has made not only the Corrs, but the Cranberries my two favorite Irish bands. They totally rock!!!"
+8272,2,Good hair clipper.,"I needed clippers since my husband ""forgets"" to get haircuts and they never seemed to be that good anyway. I don't really know how to cut hair, but I do a pretty good job with there.There are a ton of clip on measurements for different size cuts. It comes with a few combs that really where useful.For the price, I think its a great product. I've been using it for three years without any problems."
+8273,2,It is a book you should not miss!,"This book is one of her best works. i really like it. Well, i'm not very good in English, but i read its English edition five time before i got its Chinese edition.Eery exciting the book is and it worth reading again and again.Now i have three copy of its English edition,i put one of them at home and bring the other two to my university,so that i can read it again whenever i want.Go and get one!!! It's a book you should not miss!"
+8274,2,This book may change your life...,"If you are interested in meditation and are looking to improve your life, this book will no doubt help you on your path. I've recommended this book to many of my friends and I've just recently purchased my second copy after giving away my first to a friend. Anyone interested in yogic philosophy will find this book incredibily helpful."
+8275,2,Good addition to your Krupa library.,Very good sound quality and some unusual recordings. I never knew Krupa ever worked with a harmonica player. Includes some tracks I assumed would never make it to CD. My only negative comment is the one awful photo which looks like a photocopy.
+8276,1,Defective Product,"The skin I received was defective. The camera, charger, volume, etc wholes were all in the wrong place. Even for $.97 it wasn't worth the shipping I paid."
+8277,1,Hard to get on/cheap material,I bought this when I broke my tib/fib and needed a good cast cover to last a long time. This seemed initially like a good one. It was extremely hard to get on. It was water-tight until a huge hole ripped on the back-side. I attribute this to the difficulty getting it on...pulling and tugging. This all happened within two weeks. Save your money and buy a cheaper model. It will probably last a lot longer.
+8278,1,Tired and emotional,"This novel kicks off with the old chestnut (at least to moviegoers): why did Mr X kill his wife? It then delves into the past (which is meant to be the present) to tell us. What results is a strictly white-tie-and-tails melodrama - one that feels closer to the 1900s than the 1990s - of betrayal, jealousy, stolen kisses etc, among the Britsh upper classes. It might have been fun, but Mason adopts a ponderous, self-consciously 'poetic' style, attaching enormous weight and significance to every turn in the story. There's a lot of regret and moaning about the follies of youth, but zero spontaneity and very little worthwhile insight. Sorry, but this one was a major drag."
+8279,2,awesome,Great cd. I wish that more of anthonys songs were redone by Cove but this is still a good start with their new singer. Cant wait for a full length cd!
+8280,2,Hells yeah,"Legends love this guy for a reason. Amazing songwriter and ooh that voice to boot, wow! Texas definately had somethn in the water or somthn.. Two for one, dont be silly"
+8281,1,A typical textbook,This is your typical textbook. It is boring and will put you to sleep. Why do all college textbooks have to be so darn boring. I guess it may be the subjects?
+8282,2,This is a very good book for the people who know java.,wehjhfw f wejwej wefjkjwef wj ejfwe ewww ewjew jewf efwj wefj wefj wefjefwj wefj wefj
+8283,1,Disappointment from a Previously Great Band,"I have to admit, I was really looking forward to Wheat's return after their last album Per Second Per Second Per Second... Every Second. That CD was fresh, interesting, and implied either a next step into Indie greatness or maybe a fizzle into nothingness. Instead, they've gone for something ambitiously different and badly missed. None of the songs are compelling; many are unlistenable. The music is atonal and nihilistic, the melodies are either bland or bad. This will be last Wheat CD."
+8284,1,Deceived parent!,When I first purchased this car seat for my son he was fine. He is now 2 years old and can wiggle his arms out but at the same time if he wears a sweater or jacket the harness is too tight! I've had this car seat 1 year now and I still can't get it to work right.
+8285,1,Not what it seems....,"This is not death metal, this is not black metal, its just plain boring old metal, nothing special about this band at all. I think their Bruce Dickenson style session vocalist made it even worse. I can't beleave some people are calling this death metal, read the lyrics, listen to the musics speed and style - it has everything to make and album thats NOT death or black metal. I'm sure fans of metallica, limp buiscuit or some other garbage with rave this pile.Listen to real death metal - cannibal corpse, Nile, Exhumed, Immolation....Then listen to real black metal - Mayhem, Darkthrone, Enslaved, Dark Funeral, Ashes, Emperor....Now if you have/did listen to the above mentioned, try telling me that Garenian fits into the mentioned catagorize - YOU CAN'T!!!! If you can, you should get brittnay spears new metal CD as well....oops I Did It Again - its as black/death as Gardenian."
+8286,1,horrible,As usual in these cds the bbbs are awful. They always sing the exact same way and all of the songs sound exactly the same to others of their own and other teeny-boppers. But what can you expect from a group put together by a major record label?
+8287,2,Warsaw Phil soars,"I wish everyone could hear this extraordinary orchestra. They are not only a legend, but a treasure of Poland. These compositions are all good and fun to listen to."
+8288,2,Death metal comedy?,"I wanted to check this movie out after learning that Kenichi Matsuyama was in it. I loved him in the Death Note movies and wanted to see if he was as great in other roles. My boyfriend had seen the anime version of it and was interested in seeing if they kept it similar. During the first viewing, we were both laughing so hard we couldn't stop! We have since bought a copy and watched it quite a few times. I put this on if I just want to laugh. My boyfriend says there are a lot of differences between the anime and this one but he ejoyed both in their own right. If you are looking for something to just laugh at and enjoy the Japanese comedic absurdity, you will love this!"
+8289,1,Wish i could give a good review of 1.5,First and formost the item sent was not version 1.5 but 1.0 on cd.Not a problem go on line and download the latest version of 1.58.Then i find out that the program will not work with windows 7.So far i have not been able to use this program because i don't have windows xp.So please be advised that if you need or want to use this program make sure to have xp.Maybe one day the program will be updated to the 21st century and windows 7.Thanks
+8290,2,Confusing at first...,"We purchased these installation kits to install a gate at the top of our stairs without drilling into the ballaster posts. I can usually put things together or install things when I read the directions, but the directions for this item totally stumped me. But my husband came to the rescue and had these and the gate installed in no time. They do make for a very sturdy gate system, especially important at the top of the stairs."
+8291,1,Don't Confuse with Son House's great Original Delta Blues album,"The Original Delta Blues, which is far superior, is often confused for this album. This one does a poor job of showing what a special artist House was."
+8292,2,"A quick, gripping read","Most people are obviously going to be familiar with the movie, but the book is a great read. It's different from the movie in several ways, but is neither better nor worse for it. It's an incredibly quick read - I finished the whole book in approximately six hours, and enjoyed every second of it. I was actually sad when it was over. I'm a huge fan of post-apocalyptic books, and I would definitely count ""Planet of the Apes"" among my favorites."
+8293,1,Where is part 2?,"Don't make the mistake I made. I have been re-watching the entire series from season 1 on without any problems. I love it. However, I watched this episode not realizing that part 2 is missing and not available at all. It makes no sense Amazon! Get part 2 of this episode!"
+8294,1,Beautiful but dumb...,"This timer is such a good idea, and it looks great. The color is very pretty and looks wonderful in my kitchen. I am returning it however, because it is inaccurate. I've followed the directions for setting it and checked it against my old timers and the clock, and it is routinely several minutes slow. MINUTES! Plural! I can't cook with that. The buzzer has an unpleasant sound, too, but I could have gotten used to that. This same timer was for sale in the Williams Sonoma catalog awhile ago (they now have a different model), so i figured it was a quality item. It sure looks classy, tho! Sigh."
+8295,2,"Ben Vareen, Ben Vareen, Ben Vareen","There has never been and has to be a dancer/actor like Ben Vareen. Fred Astaire was a different style. Ben Vareen is beyond belief. If you've never seen him in his prime (He's 59 now), here's maybe your only real chance.The show too has some great great songs. Its also philosphically a message about life and its pursuits. Best line: If I'm not attached to anything, I'll never be free"" BUT you must see the show to fully understand (Think 'Being Alice' from Company too)"
+8296,1,Peace of Something.,"This product is a headache to listen to. It has lots of static, hiss, and interference regardless of which channel it is on. I was disappointed with the quality of the product. The battery compartment requires the use of a flat head screw driver and is flimsy. The craftsmanship of the unit is cheap. Luckily we were able to return our product and obtain a much better product. I would steer clear of this product. For the money there are much better units available that are clear and have numerous channels available."
+8297,2,Great musical storyteller,"The music is wonderful -- some songs make you laugh, others make you cry. Unfortunately, the last piece on disc one was very jumpy, so we couldn't listen to it."
+8298,2,Excellent buy!,Since these machines are getting old this is a great replacement valueThe case is aluminum and holds a 4 hour charge! Just calibrate it and it will do the restI bought 2 for less than one of the original ones!
+8299,2,Mind Blaster,Well its another mind blowing punjabi pop from Daler. Its electrifying stuff. I love daler for his punjabi pop and the way he dance.
+8300,2,Wonderfully Nostalgic,"I received the Felicity set for Christmas and was surprised at how quickly I became hooked again on the series! I popped in the first disk on a Sunday afternoon and before I knew it I had watched 12 episodes!It was great to relive the first season because there were so many things that I had forgotten about. Even if you had never followed the series when it was on the air, I highly recommend this set. This was a truly wonderful show that girls of any age can identify with. I just hope that the second season DVD set isn't too far behind this one:)"
+8301,1,What's up with this DVD set,"This is perhaps the worst DVD set I've ever owned. It is composed in no particular sequence - as already outlined in a previous review it starts (Disk 1 part 1) half way through a build and half way through the season. Then you have to hunt through the remaining 5 DVD's to find the rest of the episodes. There is no idexing, DVD extras or any other features. If I had taped the show from the original broadcast and simply burnt it randomly on to DVD's I would have come up with the same product. Discovery's first season release was also terrible as you have to purchase each episode one at a time, but at least you could figure out the logic to the composition.Overall - the worst DVD ""set"" ever - way to go discovery."
+8302,2,A Wonderful Glimpse into Ancient Rome,"There were so many things done right in this book, I don't know where to even begin! My attention was immediately captured by the main character, Lucius Aurelius, who is smart, perceptive, and honorable. I have to also point out that the Roman terms and customs used in this book were all accurate, which just enhanced the story even more for me as I have an interest in ancient Roman history. The story sets a quick pace and never lets up, leading to an action-filled climax and a very surprising ending. I am so glad to have picked up The Tribune as it is a wonderful adventure!"
+8303,2,little new,"there was very little to this doc. that i did not already know, but it was done in an interesting way and the scenery was nice and i am not sorry i bought it."
+8304,2,Spooky Tooth is back in fine form,"This is a reunion I never thought possible. But I'm glad it happened, because the guys sound great. The vocals are strong, and the guitar work is clean and sharp. There are many memorable tracks. In fact this set brings the best of the early Humble Pie sound as a bonus. Let's hope the success of this album brings Gary Wright back and a U.S. tour happens. Be sure to buy this one. And, hey, can we have YOU BROKE MY HEART SO I BUSTED YOUR JAW and TOBACCO ROAD reissues next?"
+8305,1,Archaic,This is not a book that will interest you if you are at all interested in what Zoroaster and the Parsi religion is all about. The script is archaic and leaves one rather bemused as to what the author was trying to convey.
+8306,2,LOST PROPHETS ARE AMAZING!,"So, I first saw this band live before I heard them on cd. They were playing with Hoobastank, and lemme tell you, they rock, they really do. All the songs are just way cool, and they use a dj, who also sings and its just freakin awesome. All the tracks are really fun and cool, and its just an awesome cd to buY! yay for LP!"
+8307,2,A MOVING EXPERIENCE,"A couple of nites ago I saw Almodovar's ""Talk to Her"" and was bored. (When I keep checking my watch--that's how I know a film has lost my attention.) The same cannot be said for ""Nicholas Nickleby."" I didn't want this movie to end. Everything was good about it: the directing, the acting, the writing, the cinematography, the music, the list goes on.... Let me just say that I thought Charlie Hunnam was the perfect choice for Nicholas--angelic looking with a violent streak. Jamie Bell (""Billy Elliott"") was amazing--he caught the look and behavior as the hunchbacked Smike. Christopher Plummer was effective as the cruel Uncle. The story gave me a profound sense of the 9 degrees of separation theory. I highly recommend this movie."
+8308,1,Sorely Disappointing,"After reading the previous books(the first 3 more than once), it was w/ much anticipation that I ordered this. Too much time has passed between the release of new editions to the series, therefore it's easy to forget parts. Also, not much substance or plot to this one and the print was so big, I didn't even need my glasses! It felt like a drawn-out 'Esther's Gift'. Lots of foreshadowing of things to come, but nothing ever does.Since Karon is coming out w/a cookbook in 2004, it's easy to see where the recipes will come from (orange marmalade cake, risotto, tea-room menu. Gee, I'll bet there will even be a section for diabetics!) I feel scammed and definitely will wait to check out the last installment from the library."
+8309,1,"""Hell in My Ears,"" more like it","This is a weak effort by a woman with less musical talent than Phil Collins. (In fact, ""Invisible Touch"" is a vastly underrated song in my opinion, but that's a story for a different review). Anyway, Gillian's album -- wow. I wish I knew more languages than just English, so I could say the word ""bad"" and ""stinky"" and ""eww, girl, ew"" in several different languages. There's not a good track in this stinky album. That guy David Rawlings is a terrible guitar player. I've like taken three lessons, and I'm already so much better than him. Seriously. I can play ""Chopsticks"" and ""Monster Mash"" and even ""Billie Jean."" Take it from me, dudes, this album is worse than hitting yourself over the head with a high-heeled shoe! Peace I'm OUTTA here!"
+8310,2,The Music,"I think that this is a good CD. But that is only because it has my absolute favorite songs on it. The Johto Theme song, He Drives Me Crazy, and Two Perfect Girls."
+8311,2,The cocktail book I turn to first,The chart in the middle of the book is invaluable. At a glance you can see what you can make with the ingredients on hand and confidentally experiment without straying too far off tried and true formulas (who knew the Sidecar and Margarita were related?).
+8312,2,When is the next film?,"This is a good representation of the first book of the trilogy. I'm looking forward to seeing the second installment on the big screen. I'm sure it's going to be a bit more complex to edit the material to 2 hours given all the material. However, I can't wait for the next movie!"
+8313,1,Soap in a book - bed reading,"This book didn't have me ""so hooked I couldn't put it down"" was more of - a couple of chapters before lights out.Main Characters reminded me of Sunset Beach (the soap opera).Gabriel Ashe & Rachel Sexton should have had a fight over a man or two, shame the only contender was Michael Tolland who seemed like a bit of a wimp (or wet fish)He could have done with a sinister side to make him more interesting.I liked the escape from the bad guys across the ice & the way emergency code was picked up by the sub. The megaplume & description of all the rock minerals got a bit boring.One star for the snowy location/Nasa theme.And One for making me smile/interested enough to buy another book - as it was light hearted action/adventure that didn't keep me awake."
+8314,1,Don't waste your money,"Don't waste your money on this one. I was extremely disappointed. I expected some music, but all this is is a volcano erupting. Sounded more like background noise than anything else."
+8315,1,Rantings of an expert on propaganda,"What irony....Noam Chomsky writing about media propaganda. At least he has firsthand experience with the topic, as the radical Left has made judicious use of his mastery of linquistics for their propaganda machine for decades."
+8316,1,Just OK,"This is Ten Years After without Alvin Lee. It's hard to imagine a band that was centered around the guitar and vocals of Alvin Lee without Alvin Lee. It's alright, but too bad they were forced toname themselves after a famous 60's-70's band."
+8317,2,Reliable job watch,"I work for the Fire Department. After having my watch band come apart a few times while putting my hand through the sleeve of my turnout jacket, I decided I needed something with a lower profile that wouldn't get caught and also something that was easy to keep clean, not only after fires but also after medical calls. For the price this watch is just about perfect for my needs. The fabric-like watch band is very durable and with the velcro closure it is easy to put on and take off. The face is easily readable, even at night with the Indiglo light at the touch of a button. After using the watch daily for about 8 months the velcro at the ends of the watch strap is beginning to lose some of its ""stickiness"" and I am now looking to replace the band with another just like it."
+8318,1,Help I need some water,"What a terribly dry book. I cannot concieve how this book has become a classic. The author could not have written a more boring book.The action is slow if existant at all, and written in a way that you would think if it was narrated you would think a sermon was being given.I picked this book up with the greatest intentions. I never read it in High School. Now I know why, my English teachers were sparing me the trouble."
+8319,1,Not good,"I tried to read it, it was just so boring and bad. His other books are good, this book is not."
+8320,1,NO results for the money,not very impressive for the amount of money i paid for this lotion...just made my face a little red with no results.
+8321,1,Not Recommended,Not worth the cheap price. Very cheap materials and I ended up just getting rid of it.
+8322,2,LIfe Saver,I purchased this for use with jeans. The zipper puller works great. The button puller works with lighter buttons but not with the big brass buttons on jeans
+8323,1,The worst,This product does not fit an adult. The elastic was way too tight even though it is adjustable and it made the eyepatch crush inward. I couldn't even wear it!
+8324,2,Sharing is the Magic Friend Maker,"This is a favorite book from my childhood. It was given to me by my mother when we moved to a new town. The story takes place in a city, with a lonely ""new girl"" in the neighborhood. She longs for a friend, and creates a special one after sharing a special stone she found in a country stream. The friends share many fun times, and often play games with the rock, this ""magic friend maker"". When the owner of the rock moves again, she leaves the magic friend maker with her new best friend, so that ""the magic can work again."" This is a wonderful book which promotes sharing, creative expression, dealing with fear & lonliness of moving, loss of a friendship and hope for another. Beautiful illustrations capture the simple joys of childhood."
+8325,1,The synopsis in the back is the entire book,"The book is fine, but it in the back is a boiled down synopsis, about 5 pages, that suffices for the entire book. The rest of the book doesn't really add that much. The material here is good, but is available by reading a few white papers and faq's on the web. I didn't dislike the book, I just wish I hadn't spent the money."
+8326,1,yesteryear,"You need a multi region dvd player to see this. It was ok. I saw some episodes in the late 60s as a pre teen. As an adult I must say they were nothing to write home about, There are better things to buy."
+8327,1,Definitely not for young children,"After reading another review on this site (gypsy18, 5/31/01), I was shocked to see that the reviewer's child had the exact same reaction, almost word-for-word, as did my son. He was equally upset that such violence could have come from the mind of George Lucas.This video was in the children's section of the store, and it had a ""family"" label stuck right on it. We asked the store to remove the label, as it is NOT appropriate."
+8328,2,awesome!,this book has been great it brings a lot of emotions and it's cool to see different types of people caring for each other and having a real great friendship until the end........
+8329,2,A WONDER AT A WONDERFUL PRICE!!,This book is a must for anyone who is a lover of Michelangelo's works! It has made me want to return to Europe to see the works of his I have missed in my travels. What more can I say!
+8330,2,Works fairly well,"I bought this for my French Bulldog (who has some allergies and sheds like a maniac!), it's very sturdy, sturdy enough in fact, that I cut myself on it the very first time I used it. It removed a ton of hair and although she didn't enjoy it, she let me brush her pretty thoroughly. I wish it had two lengths of teeth, I owned one that did years ago, but this one only has one. Over all a good buy, I'm pleased!"
+8331,2,Ecstasy!,"This is a wonderful collection of CDs. The early music includes plain song, male and female chant, and instrumental pieces. The package is gorgeous with Bizantine fresco art work on each jewel case. For those contemplating purchase, the group is composed of previous releases: Canticles of Estacy, Voice of Blood, O Jerusalem, Symphoniae, Ordo Virtutum, and Saints. These total $117.28 if you buy them individually so there is a real savings here. Those who are new to early music are in for a treat. This is music so old it is new, and as has been said, could be music of 900 years into the future. It is so other worldly, you are easily put into a meditative state. There is enough music here to fill your whole day with ecstasy."
+8332,1,Oh - PUH-lease!,"Anyone STUPID enough to PAY for this book (which promises a great life if you just, basically: ""think positive thoughts"")-- YOU'RE the sucker.The author is laughing all the way to the bank."
+8333,1,The Worst Musical In the World,"After finishing ""The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde"" by Robert Louis Stevenson and loving it, I rented this musical hoping to get a good musical adaptation of the book. Once it started, I realized it had very little to do with the novel. After realizing it, I didn't care about that too much.The show opens with ""Behind the Facade,"" which I liked a lot, but the rest of the show is HORRIBLE. David Hasselhoff plays the doctor and the madman in the show, and neither one is portrayed good. Former ""Baywatch"" star should never have been cast in a musical. Not only is his singing bad, but his acting is horrible. The music by Frank Wildhorn is dull and uninteresting, making the experience long and boring. I jumped for joy when it was over!All in all, this musical is horrible. Save yourself from a dull experience and don't watch it."
+8334,2,Un tributo bien merecido,"Después de la larga trayectoria musical de Soda Stereo, algo asà se necesitaba, a mi, la música de Soda Stereo me parece excelente y este disco es una versión buenÃsima de lo que hizo Soda. TODO UN TRIBUTO BIZARRO"
+8335,1,Bad Movie!,"This boring flick is a poor rip off of a way superior 1993 movie Lorenzo's Oil with Nick Nolte, Susan Sarandon and Peter Ustinov. If you want to see a riveting account of this true story of a man's relentless search for a cure for his sick son with a rare disease then see Lorenzo's Oil and don't waste your time with this turkey."
+8336,1,Doesn't work in all HP deskjet F380 all in one,My printer is HP deskjet F380 all in one (Q8134A) uses code C9351AN and C9352AN but you sent CODE C93352AL and C9351AL your product have a small plastic portion that doesn't allow the cartridge fit properly in to the printer. I lost my money.
+8337,1,Never Gets There,"The story, acting and plot were, in a word, stilted. Everything seemed very predictable. First, we have a little girl who couldn't possibly be evil..or could she? Then, the social worker who is the archetype defender of the weak who can't be shaken...or can she? Then, the best friend who, by definition of best friend, is doomed. And the abrasive, but heroic, cop friend....can you say 'next'? It just felt like an equation with no real surprise and easy to solve.The little girl's character, however, is creepy. Not much of a stilt to support the weight of a bad movie. Even so, it gets two stars because, did I mention...the kid's creepy."
+8338,2,great deal,I was very pleased at my recent purchase. The book was in great shape and arrived quickly. You cant beat the prices. I would order from here again .
+8339,2,Awesome for all model playstations,One day i got the wrong multitap and afterwards it was hard to find the proper one. I went online and found it in 2 mins. thanks to amazon.
+8340,2,One CD is Not Enough,"Even though Tony's vocals are a little rough, his instrumental talents and accompaniments make this CD a pleasure to listen to. It's evident that Tony has a real gift for the guitar and we need to hear more from him. I would compare him to artists like Leo Kottke. Both of them work the guitar like a fine surgical instrument."
+8341,2,Enjoy a healthy meal while doing it safely and nutritionaly!,"This is a pager turner from beginning to end. It took me about three and a half hours to read from chapter 1 on. I have a 2 year old daughter and it was a blessing in disguse to find a book that would actually get me to realize what I needed to do to assist myself and daughter to do to get a healthier lifestyle while still enjoying the ""no-no's"" on occasion. A must read for all those parents that would enjoy even cooking better foods for their family and have time to spare for a sit down meal."
+8342,2,Blade Keepers,Simple yet does the job it was designed to do perfectly. Especially good for those of you who don't have a block for knives.
+8343,1,SACD hybrid surround buyers beware!,"fine cd! great music!get the remastered CD version. This is a warning, however, on the SACD version. It is a marginal surround hybrid mix and contains not a trace of bass in the subwoofer channel. all of the guitar comes from behind the listener. it's a pity this one couldn't have been done right.jeff probably has never heard the blasphemy of it all."
+8344,2,Christopher Lambert was AWESOME!,"The overall acting was good by all, especially Lambert. The script failed to provide a connection to the original script, which I thought was a bit lame. It could have been so easy to provide a reasonable plot for another final confrontation, but the idiots that wrote the script must have had their head in thier rearend. After you get beyond that shortcoming, the movie is actually good. Christoper Lambert, as expected, made the picture. He's one of the best sword fighters in the film industry. He's good with a blade. I'll add this one to my collection. For me, it's a keeper."
+8345,2,New look at God's Plan,"Good read. First two chapters deal with the uniqueness, history and staying power of the Bible. Third chapter shows God in control. Then the timeline dealing with Israel. Excellent presentation. Focus on God's plan and how it revolves around Israel in cycles. There is a very strong gospel presentation and exhortation to prepare for the end times."
+8346,1,Definitely not the best choice for learning complex variables,"I have invested a lot of effort searching for the ""ideal"" textbook on complex variables. I found Bak/Newman to be extremely terse, with minimal detail, inadequate explanations, and unenlightening examples. The book by Brown/Churchill is a very accessible introduction, although I was surprised by the number of typos, and the use of ""multivalued functions"" may cause confusion. I came to the conclusion that the book by Gamelin may be the best overall in terms of clarity of explanation, rigor, and useful detail."
+8347,1,DO NOT BUY THIS UNIT,"I got this because I wanted to convert VHS tapes to DVD. I also wanted to record shows on DVD RW. The first thing is, this machine only takes DVD-R. The first unit I had, the VHS part did not work, out of the box. Returned it for another one. I discovered the DVD part gave me 90% of the time, disc errors. I switched brands of DVD. No Good. I returned the unit and got credit towards a Sony. Great machine and it plays any DVD -+R/RW, etc.Toshiba makes great televisions, but stay away from there DVD recorders."
+8348,2,works great simple to use,"After looking at cameras with not many more features than the C200 and priced out of my price range I had almost given up buying a digital camera.Then I found this site and read the tech info and comments and decided to check them out.Sure glad I did .It works great, good quality pics, easy to use, nice size and appearance"
+8349,2,The last REALLY good Burt Reynolds movie!,"Although I admit, Mystery, Alaska wasn't bad.All three main stars, Reynolds, Kathleen(BodyHeat) Turner and Christopher [Equestrian-para-lysis accident] Reeve are superb. Reeve playsa slightly younger, rich Exec. trying to courtand win Turner's hand. He's about to, until'still-in-love', ex-hubby, ex-boss, REYNOLDSher producer, steals her back - barely! Funand games and based on zionist Ben Hecht's""The Front Page"", combined with ""His GirlFriday"". Four stars ONLY out of Five. Smallflaws here and there but overall fine effort."
+8350,1,a very poor 'thriller',I was given this book. Once I started I couldn't wait to finish it but for all the wrong reasons (I don't like to just stop reading a book halfway through). I was curious to see what others had to say about it so had a look at the reviews here and was amazed to see some positive reviews about it. I had no connection with any of the characters and the environmental issues side was very heavy handed. Put simply it is a very poorly written book.
+8351,2,Post-Modernism At Its Finest,"This film first and foremost is definitely not for everyone, its not really for most people actually. I watched it in a contemporary film theory class and having done the post-modernist readings before hand I personally was completely sucked in. I have always been a big fan of post-modernism and found this portrayal to be incredibly insightful and a huge opportunity for debate and reflection on our society and its addiction to celebrity culture. I personally think there's a great dichotomy present in this film between the staged mock-umentary of Phoenix's life pursuing a career as a rapper and the ""real"" Phoenix as he has to be realizing what this film will do to him as a person and actor in a very fake town. I would recommend reading up on post-modernism before watching it to appreciate it better but like I said this film is definitely not for most people."
+8352,1,I thought it was the 7th edition,"I thought this was the 7th edition, I looked as hard as I could but couldn't find the edition on it. I was looking at a hard cover 7th edition and this was listed under paperback for the 7th but when I got it it was the 6th edition. The preview showed the 7th too."
+8353,1,Doesn't Work for Gran Turismo 3,"If you are getting this wheel for gran turismo 3 don't do it. I bought one(v3 fx racing wheel 2) before the game came out, and it doesn't work. I tried all the setting and everything, must have played it for hours, now I'am trying to get rid of mine. If you have ever driven a real car that the steering is loose on, like you have to turn the wheel half way around before the car starts to turn, if you have that is what this v3 fx racing wheel 2 is like, no control. This is what you want it is a little more money but worth it. Logitech GT force. http://www.us.playstation.com/product_detail/product_detail.jhtml?PRODID=237686&CATID=402"
+8354,2,double bass,I like this video. There are a few drum solos and demos. The tips they gave you made double bass not so impossible. It helped motivate my students.
+8355,2,excellent,"This lamp is so beautiful!!!!! I use it as my dining table center piece, it looks amaaaaaziiiing :D"
+8356,1,"Inside the Music, The Moody Blues","I love the music of The Moody Blues and I just got angry listening to the critics and their opinion of The Moody Blues, I wish I had not bought this DVD disc."
+8357,2,love it!,I love the shape and convenience of having the soap inside. Scent is wonderful although it could be a little bit stronger.
+8358,2,great!,"I was looking for some non-plastic containers to put leftovers in, and these did the trick! It does come with a LOT more smaller pieces than I'll probably ever use, but I liked the size of the bigger ones they put in, so I'm very happy with it."
+8359,2,Must read for Everyone,"With my tail between my legs, I must admit that I was a Harry Potter snob and wasn't going to read one book let alone four. I'm not one for mystical, magical books - Boy was I wrong. This is possibly one of the most enjoyable books I have ever read - I'm 38, but feel 12 when reading it. I have just finished this book and immediately picked up #2. I am so impressed with Ms. Rowlings imagination and writing ability. I can't stop talking about this book and recommend it to everyone I know. I hope I can last until 2002 for #5 to makes its' appearance."
+8360,2,loved it,"it definately had a taste of Catcher in the Rye...the acting was great too (Kieran Culkin is amazing)it might not be a good choice for people who want physical, laughing out loud comedy...but i definately enjoyed it..."
+8361,1,AVAILABLE CHEAPER!!!! DO NOT PURCHASE!!!,THIS DVD IS AVAILABLE AT THE DISNEY FAMILY MUSEUM'S WEBSITE FOR $18!!!! DO NOT PURCHASE FOR OVER $50 ITS A RIP!!!!
+8362,2,Better than I Thought,"I really didn't expect much when I picked up this book; afterall, the title is very misleading. But after reading the book, the title makes sense. A Great and Terrible Beauty is fairly predictable, but the elements of fantasy and gothic moments make the story unique. I enjoyed reading it more than I thought I would and I have to say that this is an interesting novel that will appeal to teenage readers. I can't wait for the next installment to come out."
+8363,1,Bad things happen to stupid people,"This movie is both stupid and pointless. It is one long and dreary series of bad decisions by stupid people. It is sad and depressing for no good reason at all. There is no redeeming value to the pain and misery inflicted on the characters. It isn't worth making or watching a movie merely because the characters in the story suffer. For pointless suffering I can watch the news.Unless you are a masochist or need to become depressed, don't buy this movie. I am shredding my DVD to make sure it isn't inflicted on anyone else."
+8364,1,Simply Awful,"This is one of the worst books I have ever read. It is tedious, unbelievable and after a third of the book, I went straight to the end with no satisfaction. If you are interested in a believable mystery and characters, this is not your book. Just terrible!"
+8365,2,Tony Banks' A Curious Feeling hasn't lost anything over time,"I bought the LP a long time ago and wore deeper grooves in it for all the times I played it. The atmosphere created by Tony Bank's composition style, weaving keyboards/synths, and intelligent lyrics always takes me to another place. I don't get to play my LPs much anymore and picked up the CD version. Once I played it, the wonderful feelings all came back and I appreciated the creativity and musicianship even more now. I strongly recommend this album for anyone with a hunger for something different and inspiring."
+8366,2,excellent early Earring,"This is a solid album from the early era of this fine band. Silver Ships, All Day Watcher, Brother Wind (excellent drum solo by one of rock's best drummers) and Thousand Feet Below You are some of the better tracks. A must for Earring fans. P.S. As Amazon makes some of these rarities available they should be grabbed. As American Earring fans know, not too many of their albums are available in the U.S."
+8367,2,Mesmorizing,"Anne Rice's new book Vittorio the Vampire is absolutely mesmorizing. I enjoyed it from start to finish. From the vivid detail of Filipo Lippo's paintings to the passion of Vittorio's and Ursula's romance, this book was absolutely fantastic. Anne Rice is certainly at the top of my reading list."
+8368,2,Excellent compilation,Great selection of artists/performances from the vault of the great Windham Hill.The best all round album they have produced.
+8369,1,What a joke...,"Don't waste your time if you are looking for a un-biased documentary. The producer / narrator of this movie takes scripture completely out of context in the most pathetic agenda driven of way. His dogma against and hatred of Christianity is as virulent and blind as any fundamentalist religious zealot is for Christianity. I waited forever to see an unbiased historical representation of the Christian religion and all I saw was a damaged man's diatribe full of lies and half truths and agenda driven drivel. The few scenes about ancient religions being the same as the Christ story were barely covered and nothing new from 100's of other books / movies in this milieu. His religion of hating religion is boooooring - and the attempt at the musical score making some emotional statement was hackneyed at best. The absolute JOKE of it all was his ""dramatic"" denial of the Holy Spirit in the chapel he attended as a boy... lame. If he has a therapist he should fire him immediately."
+8370,1,Broke my kindle.,"In short, My kindle froze because of this book.When I first downloaded a sample of this book I couldn't turn to all of the pages but I liked what I had seen and thought the page turning issue was a problem with the sample format. I bought the full version. Big mistake. The book was slow to open and it took a long time to get to locations from the index. It froze temporarily weil I was turning to a page but I was able to get back to home. Something like two hours later when I tried to open the book again and an error showed up. I couldn't open it so I tried a different book that I can usually read. It also showed an error and wouldn't open. When I tried a third book the error apeared again and the screen froze. Now all I can do is put it to sleep and wake it up with the error screen.From the content I was able to see this book is seems to be a great resource. Just don't buy it for the kindle version."
+8371,2,"Very entertaining, kept me wanting more","I must say that I really enjoyed this book. As an avid Stephen King fan, I have read all of his works. This one didn't waste any time getting my attention.From the beginning the story was fun and very current. I loved the references to the Red Sox, knowing what a big fan of them Stephen is. I kept wanting to know what was going to happen next, and throughout there was a nagging need to know what was going on. Questions that the book never answers and leaves wide open to your own imagination.Definitely not for the weak of stomach, as there is relentless gore and violence. It did reming me of stories like The Stand, and The Langoliers, but it's classic Stephen King through and through.Thank you Stephen for another fun read. I look forward to Lisey's Story in October."
+8372,1,Pretty & Pretty Stupid,"I'd never read any of the other ""Party Girl..."" books when I got a copy of this. After buying this, I won't buy any of the others. It has no real content, just lots of mindless dribble. I thought it would at least be funny, but the train of thought trails off constantly. It's too stupid to be funny. The only thing I really liked was the sparkly silver cover. This is a book that you look at in the bookstore and leave there."
+8373,1,Law Bored,"While a great idea, this book is poorly written. Smarmy in tone, it seems most interested in helping students dodge their responsibilities. Save your money for a real attorney."
+8374,2,Great book!,Funny story and set to the cadence of the Night Before Christmas.Probably best suited for kids 4-10 years old. The older kids seem to find it boring.
+8375,1,Disappointed,"I would recommend this book as a source for intereting information about Africa, but if you appreciate nuanced characters and a realistic plot, I wouldn't waste my time with this book.I enjoyed some of Kingsolver's previous novels, but I found this book to be completely phony. Each person in this book seems to be not a character but a mouthpiece to demonstrate ""good"" or ""evil."" The good characters (Leah) respect different cultures and adapt to them, while the bad characters (the father, Rachel) are racist and provincial. It is very simplistic. Because I couldn't relate to the pure good or evil of any of the characters, I wasn't much interested in their story. It just seemed to be trying too hard."
+8376,2,awesome movie,"I have no idea why some people say its bad because it isnt its actually really good, definately good !!!Im a guy and its not just halle thats good its the whole thing ,a great movie!"
+8377,1,Don't buy it,"This product really sucks and no one should buy it. On a VISTA basic machine - turns off all the time, and doesn't have strong reception. Replaced it with PCI card from Linksys which is much better. I would just stay away from all of Netgear's stuff -- i used a PCI card from them which also didn't work."
+8378,2,"Best audiobook series, hands down!","If you like the Outlander books, I HIGHLY recommend the audiobooks - definitely get the full, unabridged versions and make sure that they are read by Davina Porter. These are by far the best audiobooks I have ever heard! My husband has listened to all of them and loves them too!"
+8379,1,Cosmo subscription,"I have a Cosmo and a maxim subscription, I've gotten like three maxim subscriptions in the time it has taken me to get one Cosmo subscription"
+8380,2,Living the good life,Hemingway's memoirs of his charmed years living the writer's life in Paris of the 1920's is filled with nostalgia for an era gone by (he actually put this book together decades later after the fact) and amusing anecdotes galore of well known literary figures of the era and locale. This book will make any fan of Hemingway long for days spent writing the hours away in cafes followed by a night filled with drinks and frolic.
+8381,2,beautiful,"First I must say that I believe this CD is so great that it may have re kindled the progressive flame and inspired many prog bands back out of the woodworks. Bill Brufords performance on this CD is totaly inspiring, Jon Anderson is the stand out here his vocals are amasing and his lyrics are up to the grade he was at back in 1972, Rick Wakeman proves to us yet again who is the keyboard wizard and Steve Howe he is always great. When these four master musicians get together on this recording they produced a cd so strong, that the amasing and yet beautiful songs last forever. If you are a big fan of the Close to the edge period of YES you should get this recording."
+8382,2,Great book,"This book is about a young girl in Berlin during the holocaust, and follows her during her time in hiding with her mother. Quick read and worth the read!"
+8383,2,Nice Knife,"Stays sharp for a while. Nice balance and feel. Although this is a really nice knife, remember it's pretty small and may not do those big jobs very well."
+8384,2,vile display of good music.....or is it?,"Well, im a 'vile' is my first death metal album (bought it out of wonder) and i must say it is a great album. Even the simple opening to pucture wound massacre can't sway my virdict: for people who make fun of this opening, listen to the rest of the song. Plus, for people who are long time listeners to cannibal corpse: when you keep writing about the same thing over and over, it gets alittle boring, so when you look at 'vile's lyrics, just think that management was restructuring. Thats just my opinion, i could be wrong."
+8385,1,Difficult to watch,"Some programs belong in the memory and should not be watched again, the ""me, me, me"" was very hard to watch especially 2 seasons."
+8386,2,Good quality at the price,"The only negative about this bible is the small fonts. Those with good eyes will not necessarily look at this as a disadvantage. But those in their senior years should definitely look for something with larger fonts. Having got that out of the way, I must say it is a decent quality bible for the price."
+8387,2,none,Love the character building that takes place in Slaughter's books. She also does very well with blood and gore - as well as the drama.
+8388,2,I love it,"I love all things with the Murad name. I can tell when i run out, my face feels and shows it. Thanks for the fast service too."
+8389,1,bad,sean connery is the tru james bond.& brecking up the bond set suck's.because I want to buy on her majesty's secret service but I want sean connery.
+8390,1,The sound blanks out,"I like noise machines, but after about 1 month the sound started turning off for no reason. Sometimes it would go back on, and sometimes it would stay off. My sister bought one and it does the same thing. I called Homedics and they told me they'd never heard of the problem (I'm finding that hard to believe) and that if I paid to ship it to them then they would send me a new one in 4-6 weeks. So...I have to pay for it, and I'd be without a sound machine for my baby for a couple months...not very helpful. I don't recommend buying this because this seems to be a common problem."
+8391,2,Neat fun!,Medical experts say to keep your mind active to avoid Alzheimers. This is a great way to do it and have fun.
+8392,2,Very Good,My first novella. I enjoyed this easy read so much I read it in 2 days. A Man's State of Mind is not your usual read about relationships. The characters are believeable. Chris I really liked the dedication. I am waiting for your next book. I like your style.
+8393,1,not even fit for the dumpster,awesome scanner..but then i didnt pay the $100+ for the scanner only...intially it was printing fine.. then one day it decided to play jam --paper jam..by this time i had printed maybe 500-600 pages only..the original toner was still going strong..and soon after that it totally stopped printing..then one day it suddenly stopped jamming and worked fine for another 100 or so pages.. but this morning the jamming came back..and this time its worse..the moment paper leaves the tray the printer jams..Another issue with this is that canon doesnt really support this printer for the 64bits windows7 OS... Yet they are still selling it!!!
+8394,2,Buy this,"I watched this series on YouTube and loved it SO much, so I wanted to get it on DVD. It's such an amazing and funny show and buying the DVD was totally worth it. Shipping was pretty fast and I am very happy with this buy"
+8395,2,Masterwork....!!!,"This CD is a masterwork..!!!The songs are super..!!! My favourites are the "" Rockers Rollin'"" "" For You"" with the top tune "" Can't give You more""... What else could I add...??? Oh.. I forget the very famous titelsong..!!! Buy..!!! And visit the STATUS QUO Website for more information.!!"
+8396,1,READ THIS BEFORE YOU BUY!,"If you're looking for a well-built aluminum case for your Visor, take a look at the one made by Kensington. I recently bought it for mine and it is very well designed. All the complaints I've read about the RhinoSkin simply don't apply at all to the Kensington model.The Kensington holds the pda very firmly, but it is also very easy to slide the Visor in and out when you want. Also, one of the lids on the Kensington is magnetized, which keeps it shut (no clips to mess with). Oh yeah, the Kensington is cheaper too. You'd be hard pressed to find a better case."
+8397,2,a pair for every shoe,these are wonderful! help my back problems tremendously! they are very comfortable to wear and they stay in place (no slipping around)
+8398,2,Patriot Games,"Jack Ryan tries to stop an IRA fringe group from carrying out an assassination attempt on English royals and is subsequently brought back into the CIA in order to save his now threatened family. Patriot Games is a very good movie. The visuals are good, and the story is full of little twists and turns as well. If you have never seen it you're really missing out."
+8399,2,Lawdy Lawd the things this has done...,for me so glad that this shampoo was made for me to start to dread my hair and get my hair together lol...
+8400,2,Great Bond,"While not the best Bond movie, Dr.No ranks very high. This blu-ray experience is technically flawless. Vibrant colors and detail with an outstanding soundtrack make this film watchable over and over. As the first Bond film, it's true to the Fleming character. The plot is close to the source material. My only fault with the film is the climax. The Dr.No laboratory/control room and the Bond/Dr.No fight are rather cheesy by today's standards. Up til that point this is an excellent spy/action movie decorated by Ursula's rising from the sea in her two piece suit"
+8401,1,Shrub-wow! What a clever title!,"Did Molly come up with this bright pun herself? Cause usually Molly just takes things other peolpe wrote and calls them her own. Or did she have her nasty, unhappy girlfriend Ann Richards, help her? You know--Ann--the mean democrat who got her fanny waxed by George Bush in the Texas gubernatorial election? Poor Molly is just beside herself with hatred. It must stink to be a mean-spirited, hypocritical plagiarist whose girlfriend got dumped by a decent man of substance and then watch him get elected president, too.I know--she can call him stupid! That will make her feel better! But if Molly/Ann got beat by a stupid man, what does that make them? Poor girls, you just keep raging against the machine. W will just keep on keeping on. Maybe while everyone is distracted by the stench and filth the felon-pardoning Clintons are in now, Molly can write another book about how bad Republicans are."

+8403,1,Defective rubber,I will not buy this brand again. Bought two sets and both fell apart after about a month of use.
+8404,2,Pretty Good,"This movie was pretty good. Especially the dubbed version. The subtitled is better but the dub isn't that bad. Only two thing really kept this from gettin five stars from me. They took out the Japanese music and Haruka (Uranus) got a MUCH more feminine voice. But all in all not bad. If you're someone familar with the dub, it's good or if you're a die hard fan. I must admit though...the dub was good but the subtitled made me cry."
+8405,1,Piece o' Junk!,One side worked fine. The other side didn't work at all. But at this price it would have cost me as much to send it back. Don't buy this!
+8406,2,Best I've tried.,"This scrub is really granularly. A smooth and uniform granular scrub. I use an electric razor, which can cause a rash on my neck. This scrub works to toughen my skin so i don't rash anymore."
+8407,2,Not that bad,"Saw this while Puppy sitting.DiCaprio isn't one of my favorite actors but he did a superb job portraying Howard Hughs. One of aviation's unsung heroes, most people think Howard Hughs as the long haired semi-mad recluse paranoid about disease that Johny Carson so often mocked. Yet Hughs is one of the top aviation pioneers of the beginning time. Indeed if Hollywood had tried to make up a character like him for the films, nobody would believe he was real. Yet Howard Hughs the man was very very real and very very human.This film avidly portrays him. Portrays him well. His antics in Hollywood. His pioneering flights. His record setting flights. His committment to aviation as the future. His slow decline into madness.Scenes great. Costuming wonderful. Character acting supurb. Special effects well down and not over done.A good film."
+8408,1,You can break it by looking at the tip.,"I've bought hundreds of things on Amazon and thousands of things elsewhere. This is the first one to motivate me to review. The thing doesn't really work. You can see from the other reviews as well that it isn't a case of ""dumb malcontent user error."" The $9 replacement tip thing really does look like a scam, whether intended or not; that is what it amounts too.Truly pathetic. Some lawyer must be looking into a class action lawsuit by now.I doubt I will buy anything from Coleman from now on."
+8409,2,The Besta One Yet!,"I think a this was a wonderful, how do you say it, it is a the besta one, you going to update it, because a I thinka you should, you a very good a writer sir. Lots a people should go and a read thisa book you see. Excuse mya English it isa not a very good you see."
+8410,1,What happened to Levi Quality?,"I purchased these because I thought I could always count on Levis for consistent sizing and quality. Unfortunately, this is no longer the case. The pants (33 x 32) are about a size too big and the fabric is much thinner, so I know they won't be lasting as long as the old pairs."
+8411,2,"VERY sturdy, great quality.","These measuring cups and spoons are definitely a heafty design. They will not bend in brown sugar like most medal measuring utensils. Worth the price! The cups are heavy though, so be prepared for that. The oval design allows the cups and spoons to fit into boxes and spice jars for scooping. I have been completely satisfied with mine and expect to have them for a lifetime, that is if my 10 month old doesn't lose them during playtime in the kitchen :)."
+8412,1,Not much to go on here.,"I was stunned at how short this video is (10 1/2 minutes). I expected more step by step advice. Instead, she says things like ""Teach your child to roll."" Uh, how, exactly? There are not many demonstrations of HOW to teach something and I get the feeling the child she is working with already KNOWS all this stuff! I haven't shown it to my granddaughter yet and she may enjoy watching it, but I don't feel it taught me anything that will help me teach her to swim."
+8413,2,"Fun, but a little awkward to navigate on the tracks","These name-brand trains are good and durable. This product in particular follows suit, but the long crane arm makes it difficult to travel along the tracks. The natural inclination for my three year old is to hook it up like any other train car. So, it can be tricky for him to keep it from derailing on turns or hills. Under tunnels, of course, delays occur due to getting the crane lowered enough, and if the track bends nearby the tunnel, then it's double trouble. Perhaps it would be a better fit for older children who use it outside of a chain of a dozen cars."
+8414,1,Terrible,"This is the most challenging game i have ever played. Impossible to beat, and just frustrating, I dont recomend this to anyone!"
+8415,1,Sloppy Work,"Whether or not the author got the facts (mostly) right, the grammar is so bad as to make the book almost unreadable. This guy is a professor? Bad news for academia! The writing is so bad that it makes you wonder if his reporting of facts and opinions is as badly flawed. The maps and graphics are obviously poorly reproduced copies of military briefing slides. They are so poorly rendered that they are almost illegible. This is a really bad book!"
+8416,1,great gun... for a short while:(,I ordered this gun on sunday and it came on friday. i took it out and put it together and charged it up and shot a few rounds that night. then i was playing with it for a while the next day put it away charged it up took it out again and somthing in the mag was rattling and it wouldnt shoot. Now it is saturday of the same week and i will send it back Mon or Tues.
+8417,2,I LOVE IT,"this is the second Houdini I've owned, and this one seems to be much sturdier and operates more efficiently than the first one. It feels better in my hand and extracts the cork with less effort, putting less strain on the handles."
+8418,2,Brillant music and lyrics,"Right from the first track this short album is entrancing, and the vocalist's voice is captivating. ""I Want you Like an Accident"" and ""20th Century Bitch"" are two of the most addictive tracks I have heard. It is criminal that this band haven't had the coverage and airplay they deserve."
+8419,2,Great book,My order was just on time and the book was in really good conditions. I received a great service. I recommend it.
+8420,2,Supplement,New Chapter Prostate 5LX works fine for me helping to keep my prostate from enlarging. Obtaining the product through Amazon is easy and is quick. Also the price is less than any place I can get it locally.
+8421,1,Very poor quality,"Both channels didn't come through clearly. The connections were loose so you had to jiggle them to get the stereo to come through, but it wouldn't work without holding it."
+8422,1,Do not buy this sheet.,"I wouldn't let my dog sleep on these sheets. They are of the worst quality imaginable. We took ours back and purchased plain ole porta crib sheets and they fit PERFECTLY. I recommend the Koala Baby name brand porta rib sheet. They are available at BRU and have elastic all the way around, making for a snug fit. And the quality is 1000 times improved over the PNP sheets."
+8423,1,AVOID!!!!!!!!!!!!!!,"Purchased based on anti-virus rankings by Consumer Reports and other computer articles. The firewall application blocked my internet service provider EVEN after it was told to trust it. The Anti-virus is slow running with poor options. I could have lived with that by disabling the firewall in it. However, this program caused a major slow down in my computer."
+8424,2,"POWERFUL, EASY TO USE, EASY TO CLEAN,",years ago i had a juiceman (the $200 model). It was good. But this one is even better. Less waste out the back. sturdy. looks nice on the countertop. easy clean. very powerful (850 watts i think) compared to most around this price range. Good buy!
+8425,2,Beginning of Heavy Rock,"Okay, maybe that is a bit exaggerrated. However, when Iron butterfly started playing the club circuit in '66, there had never been anything that sounded like them. Dubbed ""heavy metal"", Butterfly both directly and indirectly influenced more bands than arguably anyone else. However, this album shows that butterfly were not a one-trick-pony, and also dabbled in psychedelia, pop, and other styles too. While their following album honed their style to near-perfection, ""Heavy"" is quite possibly the most historically-important Rock album ever."
+8426,2,Light hearting and amusing,Found this to be an easy read. As with most of these authors books it was amusing too. Hero's and Heroines were somwhat predictable but as I am a fan I could live with that.
+8427,2,Bananamania continues,I can only say that these two stories are up to par with Banana's older books like Kitchen. Just read it.
+8428,1,Do yourself a favor and buy something else...,"I bought the 290 Pro about 1-1/2 months ago. Already, the hat switch and the z-axis quit working. I've completely re-installed everything and nothing. I've contacted Saitek ""support"" and nothing. They say that they don't have problems with their hardware...just the installation. All I know is I should not have bought this.Good Luck."
+8429,1,Not for everyone.,"If you're still in college or just fresh out of college, this would be an excellent source to help prep for the FE exam. On the other hand, if you've been out of college for a while and haven't used some of the skills you learned for a number of years, it would be better to take a prep class. Case in point, the calculus section condenses three semesters of calculus knowledge into roughly 5 pages. Fine if every aspect of calculus is fresh in your mind, otherwise you'll find yourself going back to your old textbooks for further review, essentially prepping for the prep book and requiring far more time to prep than the book suggests."
+8430,2,THIS IS AN AWESOME CD!!!!!!!!!!,"This is perhaps the best rock album of all time. Guns n' Roses may be inconsistent and sometimes their ideas can get in the way of their music talent but here they blend perfectly. Welcome to the Jungle is awesome and has awesome guitar and rhythm and everything. The legendary Sweet Child of also has great guitar rhythm and is a great pure song. paradise city is another great mix of sound and songwriting perfection. Nighttrain, out ta get me, brownstone, my Michelle, think about you and others are swweet tunes as well."
+8431,1,Arranged,"I was annoyed with this film from the very beginning. The two religious adherents are portrayed as virtuous, thoughtful, well spoken and modest and every other woman in the room is a two-bit whore who talks like a valley girl. Why do they always do that? Couldn't watch much past five minutes as I was choking on righteousness."
+8432,2,BUY THIS NOW!,FANTASTIC! One of the best CDs I own! The bluesy soul of this album will keep you wanting more! Phenomenal artist!
+8433,2,good escape,"I recently finished Body of Intuition, a mysteryabout a body-mind workshop in Marin County,California, a place famous for spiritual/body classes andseminars. I gratefully flipped to a front list many timesto keep the numerous characters straight and it wasa big help. Body of Intuition kept me page-turning(and laughing) through the last page with the whimsicaldoings of Cally Lazar. This book was light andfunny. I think I've discovered a new escape fromreality--a Claire Daniels book."
+8434,2,This book is for all Titanic fans!!,"If you enjoyed this movie, you will enjoy this book. It gives you some insight on how the movie was created with lots of pictures of the movie and from behind the scenes. It also answers some of the questions: ""How did they do that?"" This book is for all Titanic fans."

+8438,2,Better than a regular popper!,"My husband loves popcorn more than any other human being on earth. He's worn out several of the old-fashioned electric kind, and they all made a mess, splattering oil all over the kitchen counter, walls, etc. I bought him the Presto PowerPop primarily to contain the mess to the microwave--but not only is there no mess to clean up, the popcorn it produces tastes much better than the popcorn made with the StirCrazy popper he used before! (We're using the exact same brand of corn.)I heartily recommend this popper, it pops nearly 100% of the kernels, makes a perfect amount for two people to share, tastes great and is easy to use!"
+8439,2,"Lousy title, fantastic content","I've read and studied the dozen or so standard books on screen writing. I took Robert McKee's screen writing course. If you're looking for the cookie cutter screenplay formula, there are plenty of other books. But if you're interested in the science (so to speak) of screen writing, then this is a fantastic book. Vale explains ""what makes it interesting."" He explains the nuts and bolts of suspense. He explains how screenplays are different from stage plays which are different from novels and short stories. I would like to buy the rights to this book and sell it again, but with a different title."
+8440,1,"Yep, they're fake!","I saw the other reviewer's note that these were fake, but I thought he might have gotten a bad batch.Well, so did I. The are visible defects and the blades aren't sharp.I'm not buying these online anymore."
+8441,2,"I Love it ( But OK, I'm Biased)","I'd been out of the music scene since, oh, just a bit after most of the tracks here were recorded. But I still write, arrange and play and from time to time keep up with musical friends from 'back when.'One such conversation got me thinking about my days in the music scene and that in turn moved me to make a video of my group from those days and post it on YouTube ( [..] and then share the link on a musician's forum. Well the reaction was fantastic. ""That ought to be on Pebbles"" someone wrote. Pebbles? I'd never heard of it. So I did a Google and found this. And lo and behold what else do I find. My old group, The Abstracts, performing the very recording I used on my video is on this set. Disc 2, track 19. So yeah, I love it. But I have to admit... that makes me a little biased. ;-)~"
+8442,2,Excellent!,"I loved this movie. Everything about it was great!!! I am a lover of music and a former high school band student and at that time not much meant more to me than being in the marching band, so I really enjoyed it. All of the actors were good. And Nick Cannon was so cute!!! He's also a great actor. Congrats to the people behind the storyline. This movie definitely deserves a 5-star rating. By the way, very clear picture. It's like you're really there!!!!!"
+8443,2,Surprised,"I have never liked Jamie Kennedy, but this is so funny! I had to buy it. Can't say how many times I have watched it... It still makes me laugh like the first time."
+8444,1,Bad book. Not fun to read & sorry I lost money buying it.,Just plain boring writing. Did not have anything related to title or just put me right to sleep. Save your money if you want my honest advice.
+8445,2,Teacher,"I am teaching some young preachers from out of my church and personally used this book when in Bible college over 35 years ago. It is a great book, very detailed with information that will help any young or older preacher know more about his ministry and how to perform it."
+8446,2,Great hoodie,I ordered this for my 9 year old son. It arrived quickly and in perfect condition. It fits my son nicely w/room for layering. Very soft and warm. Great buy. Great company to work with.
+8447,2,Overland Limited Jogging Stroller,"This stroller really gives you a workout. Everyday when I take out my daughter I start off by putting on my music, which my daughter loves, and then from there the workout begins. I can feel the burn in my legs automatically when I am strolling with my daughter."
+8448,1,Just Doesn't Last,"Purchased a second after the first malfunctioned. The second lasted even shorter than the first. These are too easy to overwind and the item simply stops working and bingo--its dead. If you plan to purchase this item, wind it very slowly and only briefly. Then perhaps it will work. We have decided its more advantageous to simply purchase a new microwave."
+8449,1,"Watch out, Bulk Ship","I ordered these batteries, qty 2 packages, as shown in a 2 battery blister pack with an expiration date of 2016. I received 4 bulk batteries with no known expiration date. Amazon shows no return policy for the vendor and provides a contact number which I called several times with no answer. I would stick with one of the other vendors, looks like I'm stuck with the substitition and unknown expiration date. No big thing it's only 6 bucks but you should get what you order."
+8450,1,color sick,"I am highly disappointed in this item. First it does not anything like the pictures. The colors are way different(think florescent) and just gross looking. The shower curtain is completely sheer plastic that you can see through (I would not have bought). Even the paisley print is different, it is not detailed as in the picture but large and kid like they are also way more spaced apart from each other leaving the majority of the shower curtain just plain clear plastic. Not happy, I would return it if it were worth the shipping to return. Wasted $26"
+8451,2,An odd book I'm glad I took a chance on.,"I'd never heard of this book or this author, but I don't know why. I'm a connoisseur of books on lake and sea monsters and this was a singular work. Baumann took it upon himself to do a lot of basic field research and turned up a lot of eye-witness accounts that I haven't found in print anywhere else. [Presumably people who had never been interviewed before.]This is well-worth reading if you're looking for some new insight and stories about the lake monster phenomena. :)"
+8452,1,Had some problems,"We had this humidifier for 21 days before it quit working. Before that it worked great, the humidity in our home was more comfortable. However, Amazon made it no problem and sent us a new one in about 4 days. We'll see how this one last. Amazon was great in dealing with them."
+8453,2,Awesome Ball,"After using the Spalding TF-1000 most of my life, I noticed that every time I play pick-up basketball, all the dudes have these and they always use them as the game ball. My ball NEVER got used. I fell in love with this ball.. the grip, the bounce the overall feel is fantastic. It's rare that my ball isn't picked as the game ball now."
+8454,2,Exactly what I ordered,Buttons that I ordered were exactly what I was looking for and they arrived fast! Perfect experience. The colors were a match from the color pictured on Amazon also. That's hard to find. Thank you
+8455,2,Need for Speed 2,"This is a really cool game where you get to outrun the cops, who are sometimes really tough. There are at least 49 different cars, starting with the Opal Speedster. To get more cars and tracks you have to beat challenges. Hot Pursuit is with cops, which has 30 challenges to be completed. Also in this mode you can be the cops, which is really cool. You can set out spike strips to blow speeder's tires (although it's not cool when you're the speeder and the cops do that to you)!World Racing is the exact same thing except without cops. It also has 30 challenges to be completed. Also, in both modes you can do a race for fun, where you don't choose the track or your car(Quick Race). Or you can do a race by yourself, where the person in last place is deleted each lap, and on, and on, and on. So hop behind the wheel, whether you're a cop, a speeder, or just a regular person, and...3...2...1...GO!"
+8456,2,very useful,This book is extremely useful both for absolute beginners and also for those who have already encountered and practised narratology. Bal's comprehensive theory of narrative is a precious tool for a better understanding of narrative texts and of other theories in the field of narratology.
+8457,1,My review,"These are handy, but we've found that you really just need a potholder to cook with cast iron., especially if you use a lid."
+8458,1,A Little Flat,"I am usually a huge Nora Roberts fan, but this one fell a little flat. I appreciate an author who has a talent for descriptive writing, and can make you almost ""feel"" the setting of the book. That is one of my favorite things about Nora Roberts. However, has anyone else besides me noticed that many sentences in the book start with the word ""and""? It's starting to drive me crazy! Enough already!!"
+8459,1,DO NOT BUY THESE EARBUDS!,"After less than four months (VERY LIMITED USAGE) my Red Roxx Vibe earbuds are shot. I am experiencing intermittent volume loss, and one of the mesh guards inside the earbud has fallen out (thankfully not into my ear). I can understand defects in workmanship, but do not appreciate V-moda requiring me to pay the return shipping cost plus insurance on the package to receive a replacement. And, for a defective 3 1/2 month old product, I should not have to. The sound quality is good, but another problem I have is the earbuds do not fit securely in my ear and still fall out. This was a major selling point as I use them when working out and doing chores. This purchase has been a MAJOR DISAPPOINTMENT, and not at all worth the higher price.***07/16/2007 I RECEIVED MY REPLACEMENT FROM V-MODA AND AFTER ABOUT ONE HOUR THEY AGAIN STOPPED PLAYING OUT OF THE LEFT EAR. THIS PRODUCT IS TOTAL GARBAGE! HEED MY WARNING, OR IN A FEW MONTHS IMAGINE ME TRYING TO TELL YOU I TOLD YOU SO!"
+8460,2,Very excellent!!!,"This is a fine book which will teach you not only all you need to know about ADO/RDS in ASP development, but which also contains significant information that goes beyond what the scope of the book title implies. In depth discussions of general ADO/RDS usage, VB project development, COM server development/instantiation/registration, web application development in general, and even DHTML tips make this book valuable reading for any VB programmer working with both Web page and stand-alone development. There are lots of gems here, and I learned much about VB in general. It is beautifully written, contains very few errors, and is extremely well organzied. I highly recommend this book. Be advised that, as the book states early on, a working knowledge of ASP is assumed."
+8461,2,FANTASTIC! Great bargain...,"You will not find a better deal on a flat wall mount for your TV. I purchased this for my 37"" LG LCD TV and I could not be happier. It came with all of the necessary hardware to mount this onto my TV plus it had other hardware that is compatible with just about every other TV on the market today. Another bonus with this mount is it comes with two different mounting options, one that allows you to mount this right up against your wall, or you can mount it about an inch from the wall to allow room behind your TV for all of the connections. I went to the manufacturers website and this mount retails for over $200. If you purchase this mount, I can guarantee you that you will not be disappointed!"

+8464,1,Dissappointing,"I have so enjoyed Christians & Mona Lisa's tapes on Intuitive Healing, I thought that this would be just as good. After listening to 2 of the CD's I switched them off, they were so full of negative stuff, that someone having a baby for the first time, would be so fearful of the process. I know when having my own first child, I stopped reading the information, simply becasue we are ""wired"" to think the worst, instead of what we need to think ""It's OK"""

+8466,1,Surprisingly God-awful,"Unlike the gripping television documentary that it inspired, this book is dry, obscure, and excruciatingly boring. After being moved by the miniseries a dozen times, I was eager to learn more back-story about the key players in the war and the causes of it. Of course, I thought this book would exceed my expectations. Instead, I was disappointed to discover page after page of needless minutia that makes for the most boring of academic textbooks. There is no information whatsoever about Gavrilo Princip, The Black Hand, The Habsburgs, or anything else that would've made things absorbing and personal. The histories of the belligerents aren't examined, so readers are left to wonder why they're even involved. Most of the time I don't know what the heck this writer is rambling on about or why he's doing it. I give it one star for the collection of excellent photographs alone. The text is only useful as a cure for extreme cases of insomnia."
+8467,1,.....,"Typical metalcore. Average mediocre musical skills. Highly unoriginal. How they can be called thrash or be compared to the big thrash of 4 (Slayer, Anthtrx, Metallica and Megadeth) perplexes my mind. Screaming screamo vocals. Matt Heafy is trying too hard. The CD cover is so emo-ish.I love metal, don't get me wrong. But this is NOT metal. It insults the metal genre. Emo/Screamo and metal are two totally different genres and to fuse them together and think you're original is a sin."
+8468,1,Destiny Unfufilled,"I have had this CD for quite some time now and it just does not grow on me. The OK songs include ' Through With It Love', ' Free' and 'Cater 2 U'. The song ' Girl' reminds me of 'Me, Myslef and I, which i don't particularly like. Their songs are lyrically challenged. (e.g.Cater 2 U - 'Let me help you take of your shoes, untie your shoe string...' & Girl- i'm your girl you're my girl, we're all girls don't you know that we love ya.....) please how tacky. The CD is rather boring actually, with 'Lose My Breath' being the only catchy track. The others are just 'filler' tracks in my opinion. It is good to see the group re-united but this disc is not good. Let's hope that they release some remixes to these bland tracks. This attempt was just not good enough."

+8470,2,"Ateco clear 18"" bags",They are great and so easy to use. The help with my cookies and candies really come in handy and I can just through them away. Thank you Amazon for offering them.
+8471,1,This CD got 1 star because you're not allowed to give a zero,"This CD is straight Garbage. I don't hate Ashanti, and I caught myself dancing to the last one every now and then, BUT I can't stand this one. The only reason I bought it was because of 4 good songs. Rain On Me...definately a great song, would have helped if Irv Gotti didn't do that all-too stupid evil laugh at the beginning. The other good songs rotate between Aww...baby(the rock wit me song...), Ohhh Ahhh, and I don't mind. Other than that, Ashanti needs to REALLY listen to the people who said she couldn't sing last year. Although she says no one ever came up to her and told her she sounded terrible, she needs to take the hint from us on the Internet. Ashanti, you sound terrible. Terrible..."
+8472,2,Wonderful pocket reference (not quite pocketsized though),"Simple and sweet - good refence, easy lookup structure, fast answers. Anyone dealing with CSS should have this close by."
+8473,2,"Simple, Yet Eloquent Novel","One of the reviewers of ""The Namesake"" remarked that it flows so effortlessly that the reader forgets he or she is reading a novel. I had exactly the same experience. ""The Namesake"" is about an immigrant family from India and their struggles to adapt in America, but more importantly, the novel speaks to relationships and rituals of family, country and love in a manner that is so simple, yet so elegant, controlled and profound. Ms. Lahiri has her detractors who say that nothing happens in this novel; I am reminded of critics of Austen who have said the same thing. However, this novel tells a very believable story that is animated by the author's ability to captivate the reader with unadorned prose that is never false or tentative. I am truly amazed that this is only her second work of fiction. Think of Hemingway or Kent Haruf."
+8474,2,Hit and miss,"This album is a mix of many things. 4 songs are really good and have been put on my MP3 player. 4 songs stink. The remaining 4 tracks are okay.These women have talent, I'm just not sure they've peaked yet. At least not in this album.If they reach their full potential they'll be awesome, but for now, they're cool."

+8476,2,A good game.,This game is good. It's challenging but it's good and is a lot of fun. There are two views. The first level is the top view and then the second is the side scroller. A fun game you're able to get plenty of powerups and firepower. This game isn't bad at all
+8477,2,"Overall Good, but with a few Bad Songs mixed in","Jean-Michel Jarre did a good job on this album. It has two really good songs, Chrono. 2 and Chrono. 4, and one really bad song, Chrono. 7. But the whole album fits together as a whole and sounds good."
+8478,1,::Still Sleeping::,"I was really disappointed after i got this alarm clock. It worked fine for a few days, although the sound qaulity was rather disappointing. Then everything just fell apart...the cd player stopped working first, playing tracks only when it felt like it. The alarm would go off sporadically and was very unreliable; it seemed like whenever i needed to wake up the most it never rang. I've since returned the item. An alarm clock that picks and chooses when to wake me up isn't my idea of a great product."
+8479,1,Buy the orginal!! What happened to you Dave?,"What did he do??!!!!!!!!!!Not only he started making bad music, he also managed to ruin his previous masterpieces. Buy the original 'So far so good so what?' and 'Peace Sells' (both 5 star) and forget that these versions even exist.God... I can't believe this...one of my favourite album of all time treated as a commercial product with no respect but the man who actually created it.Words can't even describe what I feel, but real Megadeth fans know what I'm talking about."
+8480,1,MacOS X is the greatest OS but this is the worst machine by Apple.,"Stay away from this thing! Runs WAY too hot, lots of early failures, the screen is so hot it burns your eyes like staring into a camp fire. Form over function taken much too far in this machine! This form in a Pentium M would probably be the best machine they've ever sold."
+8481,1,Stretch Marks :(,I bought this hoping it would keep me from getting stretch marks but unfortunately I ended up with a few. I didn't use this product everyday because it left my tummy feeling really greasy and I was worried it would ruin my clothes. It smells ok and who knows if I didn't use it at all I might have ended up with a lot more stretch marks.
+8482,2,Vague,This single offers some pretty unique remixes and really showcases the mixing talent of Jay Gordon. Definitely worth listening to.
+8483,2,such a wonderful book!,"This is one of my favorite books in the field of alcoholism. I recommend it to my counseling clients, and to the counselors that I train throughout the world. One of the top other books that I recommend is ""Under the Influence"" by James Milam.Under the Influence: A Guide to the Myths and Realities of Alcoholism"
+8484,1,A Wast Of Time and Money,"I got the DVD at the local dollar store for $1. Katherine Hepburn is only in this movie for about 5 min. The clarity of this film is not very shabby. I'd rather want you to spend your money on better, more sufficient Katherine Hepburn movies."

+8486,1,Little edition - little use,"Re: BNI's Construction Dictionary, Pocket Edition105 pages, watered down version of BNI's Larger Construction Dictionary Illustrated, which was also a major disappointment."
+8487,1,It had to happen...,"After two fine efforts we get this horrid banal mess. Hyped up the wazoo - and delivering a moaning, grumpy drone with barely any melody. Oh sure, there is an occasional moment, but overall this thing is horrid.Get the other two ""Pablo Honey"" and ""The Bends"" and join me in hoping the hype stops and Radiohead get their act together for the next one."
+8488,2,I love this movie!,"I saw this movie 3 times in theaters (long story)... it was truly a great movie and I loved it. I have already pre-ordered this on DVD and can't wait to see what are in the ""Special features""! If you are into romantic comedies (like ""You've Got Mail""), you will really like this movie! Lance Bass and Joey Fatone are better actors than I had expected and the movie was WAY better than I had expected! I can't wait to see this movie again, my friends can't wait to see it again. The only thing that I found ""unsatisfactory"" about this movie, is the way they edited-out the dirty language--that got kind of annoying... other than that IT WAS GREAT!"
+8489,2,Good as a first book period,This book will be informative for the beginner and a great reference for the intermediate. Do not buy this book if you have ever been formally trained in AutoCAD or have read any real books - just more of the SOS.
+8490,1,Hmmm--not very interesting.,"Cliche lyrics --- not very deep -- similar melodies to what we have heard on previous albums -- this one seems kind of like ""hey guys we need to make another album and we have no new ideas, so let's just go into the studio and see what happens""."
+8491,1,What happens when CRAPPY writers get book deals?,"This book. It is to literature what Star is to magazines - just a general peek into the upper crust. It is full of FLAT characters, including the protagonist. All rich women are this way! All rich women's husbands are that way! All innocent nannies are innocent nannies that really care for kids!Not good at all, and baaaaadly written."
+8492,2,Barking Dog,"We bought this dog for our baby ""Dash"". She is a little Yorkie. It was for christmas. When we opened it; I could not resist giving it to her then. She loves it! She goes crazy when it barks and pants! She even sleeps with it! It is really cute and I recommend it to every little dog!"
+8493,1,No real point to this,There was no real point to this documentary and I was not conviced of the anticolonialism message of Mr. D'Souza. I feel I wasted a few bucks to watch it and more importantly an hour and a half of my life I will not get back.
+8494,2,Dance review,"Setrak vol 10 is good to work with for dancing. The first track makes a great entrance piece. The tracks are short, so you can show a lot of variety!"
+8495,1,Black Friday,"I did finish the book. I actually skimmed through the last half. There were many grammar errors which totally surprised me. I like many of Patterson's book. None of them deserve 5 stars, many deserve 4 stars. This one just barely made 2 stars. Really happy that this was a library book. I would have been upset if I had spent money on it."
+8496,2,An entertainig story with admirable character development.,"As an active duty Air Force pilot, I could readily identify with most of the characters in this story. I found it interesting to hear about the tactical nuclear weapons testing. Historically, the story is accurate it it's descriptions, even though the locations of events are changed.The book had several plotlines, making for a fast and interesting read. I would recomend this book to aviation buffs or lovers of action/adventure."
+8497,1,This nozzle is junk,This nozzle lasted all of about a week. It was used to was a car twice. On the second washing it was dropped from hand held height to the ground. The plastic on the back of the nozzle broke off. It is now unusable. Very poor design.
+8498,2,Liz should start considering Enid's friendship...,"I didn't like the way Enid reacted to Ronnie's confrontation. I mean, why did she accuse Liz? If she 'valued' Liz's friensdship and trusted her, then she'd take Liz's word for it. If I was Liz I would have made Enid grovel for my forgiveness. Liz is too soft. She's also too dumb - I mean, it was sooo obvious that Jess wanted to be voted Prom Queen. Jess can be such a witch - it's great! I'd definitely want her as a best friend in High School."
+8499,1,10x better than KFD / 1000x worse than Unholy Terror,"Blackie Lawless should be ashamed of this release. I am a huge WASP fan, but like KFD, this cd is total garbage. Two songs are concert worthy, thats it. Save your money and pick it up at used cd warehouse, but do not spend [money] on this crap."
+8500,2,Good sander,"The is a well built sander. The portability makes it easy to use on large pieces. The one thing that I would recommend is to have a handle. This sander is somewhat bulky and a handle would make it more ergonomic. If a handle were to be added, I would rate it five stars."
+8501,2,A great record,"Wallington live at the Cafe Bohemia has always been one of my favorites. I had it on vinyl and then on cd on OJC as well as this release. I am grateful that the Spanish pirate company found other songs that were not on the original OJC disc. I wish that OJC put out all of the music on their own disc. Wouldn't we all rather have the original tape from which to make the disc?Anyway, this is one of the finest bebop records that any of us will hear. It does not have the raw edge that Charlie Parker's live material shows, and it even shows a kind of counterpoint that one might expect in baroque music. This record really swings. Byrd's soft attack just opposed with McLean's slightly sour sounding biting attack is really fun.Get it while it lasts."
+8502,2,More Than a Fantasy,"While I seriously condsidered turning it off after the first ten minutes because it looked stupid, I'm glad I was patient enough to continue watching. I liked T. Gibson's comedic timing and dry delivery, the exotic Buddhist characters, but most of all I was intrigued by the plot involving Master Wu, the writer censored and oppressed. This storyline has a lot to say about controversies like this in all times in all countries. Once that came up, coupled with the love story between Nick and Kwan, I was riveted."
+8503,2,Great Product,"The Coolaroo shade cloth in wheat is an excellent product. It is easy to cut and hem to any desired shape or size. I also have a Coolaroo easy up I purchased years ago in the wheat color and I can confirm that the cloth is durable, reliable and still looks great after years of wear.I recently purchased the Coolaroo shade cloth in wheat in the hopes that I could make an awning to shade the back of a home. After constructing a wood frame, I hemmed the unfinished edges and put in gromments.I took the advice from a previous review and I used a soldering tool to make the holes for the gromments. This prevents the fabric from ripping away from the gromment so easily. (Thank you! Great idea!)I installed hooks to each side of my awning frame and voila!"
+8504,1,WORST BOOK I HAVE EVER READ,"I wonder how the author got this published? Touted as a book that will give you insight into the auto industry etc etc actually you are given way too much insight in the mind of a bitter, self absorbed author. Nobody likes the author as much as the author does."
+8505,1,Not a book for those who want to learn ASP.net,"If you want to learn asp.net, this book is not the one. All it does is talk."
+8506,1,needs a window to work,"I bought 3 of these for my office, which has very few windows. It couldn't catch a signal in the rooms I had placed them (kitchen, conference room, and front desk- none of which have windows), so after a week, I returned them and got regular clocks. The atomic technology just doesn't seem worth it when you can buy a regular clock and not have to worry about where you hang it."
+8507,1,Pictures are still missing,"I purchased a copy of this book in late 2010 and the edition being offered by Amazon at this time is still missing the colored pictures. When you receive the book the back cover states that the color pictures are included, but the publisher has left them out. As stated in another review, you may obtain a copy of the book from the author. I did this and compared that copy and the amazon copy. Besides the color pictures issue, it became immediately apparent that the black and white drawings in the current amazon edition appear streaked and blurry, as if they were photocopied from the original book. The drawings in the copy I obtained from the author were crisp and clean. The book itself seems quite good (I haven't read thru the whole thing yet) and the one star is given for the bad publishing, not for the content of the book itself."
+8508,1,Did nothing for me...,"I'm actually shocked that it did nothing. I had read plenty, took the right dosage, even doubled it at one point. Not a thing. Went to the doc, tested my testosterone levels, they were unchanged. If you have low testosterone, go see your doctor. That stuff works."
+8509,1,Absolutely Disappointing,"I have no problem with a group experimenting, being creative, or going in a different direction...but this CD is completely void of anything memorable.Silly, unfunny, incoherent, jumbled, uncreative...all would be words to describe this CD. I loved the first two releases from them, but it seems their creative energy has turned into some kind of mumbled, electronica pop with no soul.Critics love the single ""We Used To Be Friends"" and that should tell you something right there.Trendy hipsters might elevate this release to classic status because of their lack of objectivity and general willingness to go along with whatever's popular and cool - but anyone looking for a memorable, long lasting, quality CD should look elsewhere.I'm sorry but this CD garbage, truly disappointing considering how promising and good their first two releases were."
+8510,2,Very good all-weather floor mats. Fits 100% Mercedes 300CE'89,"This model is very good all-weather floor mats. Good-quality rubber, fits great my Mercedes 300 CE, 89.Good profile, which keep water in lower part of the mat. Easy to clean.It was pretty good purchase since I, personally, don't like carpet floor mats."
+8511,1,ANGELA MAO YING IS NOT IN THIS DVD,"In the product descripton, Mao Ying is listed as the star, she not even in this movie. This is a very early Jackie Chan DVD. It was probably made at the start of his career. In this movie, Chan is continually fighting a gang of bullies to protect his family. Then continually fighting those responsible, after the his father is killed. There are a lot of really silly cartoon characters. I didn't care for it. The entire movie is kind of comical.Jackie Chan looks about 20 years old in this movie. Those that like Jackie Chan may enjoy seeing his early work, but if looking to see Mao Ying...you'll be pissed. I know I was. Amazon issued a prompt refund."
+8512,1,What the heck happened?,I usually like the Anita Blake series but what the heck is up with all the porn? I'm freaking 200 pages into it and the murder has not even been touched upon. But AB can have a female ej. Yaaaay! WTF. What the heck happened to this series...it's become a total waste of time.
+8513,1,Sure it was a good follow up but does it even touch Ender,"Come on guys, lets all face it that Orson is a great writer but wouldn't we have rather had a sequel to Ender instead of one of his tag-alongs. Ender was the greatest, therefore none of his glory should have been taken away by the fact that Orson was hoping to grab people's attention by using Ender's legacy....For God's sake look at the title. Card looks like a pimp trying to prostitute Ender's name for more money."
+8514,2,storm enthus. will be giggling w/ this light-hearted read,"I stumbled onto this children's book in a thrift store. I was no less than delighted with this book, although, I think that very young children might feel the main character to be quite menacing and possibly scary. Adult storm enthusiasts, on the other hand, will see the humor. Great, light-hearted, morning-coffee read."
+8515,1,buy with caution,"I bought this same model at Wal-Mart, the first one caught fire and burned up, the second one worked fine for a month or so but now only the left charging station will actually charge anything.I'd suggest normal AA rechargables, easier to find parts for."
+8516,2,Go beyond with Ultravox,"Beyond the voice, that's what the name suggests and that is precisely what they give. Ultravox were important figures in the European New Wave of the early 1980s and some of their best titles feature on this collection. It means nothing to me, or rather it does given that their ""Vienna"" soars to new heights and I'll bet that you can't help but soar with it. You'll find it impossible to sleep to the pulsing sounds of ""Sleepwalk"" and ""Passing Strangers"" will urge you to find out more about this group's wonderful music. Finally, just for ""Reap the wild wind"", ""Dancing with tears in my eyes"" and ""Hymn"" the CD is well worth the investment."
+8517,1,poor quality,"For the life of me, I can't understand why this set gets such great reviews! My one-year-old bent this broom in half. Do I really need to say more? Spend a little more and get something sturdier."
+8518,2,Jet Li redeems himself,"Yes this is a tribute to Bruce Lee's movie, but soon people will overlook that and realize that Jet is the next Bruce Lee. The story in this movie was excellent, of course the fight scene are great, The picture quality in this movie is really not that great, but the voice overs are very believable."
+8519,1,Not a new book!!,"I was so very disappointed to receive this, only to find that it is only a collection of the first 3 books in the series!I love this series, and I was so happy to see a new title that I ordered this as soon as it came out. I should have waited for a review to see what was really happening. I'll do that with the Brightwell books from now on.Other authors publish collections, but you always know from the titles that they are collections. I was tricked into thinking this was a new story because of the title.Don't order this book unless you really want the collection of her first 3 books! I'd give 0 stars if I could - because of the misleading title."
+8520,1,Wasn't funny-found offensive.,Was not funny to me - I found it offensive. I did not find it accurate to either party's true values or views.
+8521,2,This CD kicks @$$..,First of all.. like the title says.. this CD kicks @$$.. and another thing.. all you stupid people saying Eminem sucks and giving it 1 star can go.. Err.. nevermind.. kids might be reading this.. I can see if you buy the CD and don't like it.. or something but just saying Eminem sucks and rating it 1 star.. You are stupid.. if you don't like it.. Don't listen to it.. simple as that..Anyway.. Yeah.. this CD is awesome.. 5 stars.. if You like Eminem.. why are you reading this still? GO BUY THIS!
+8522,1,Not as good as the original.,"This ink is nowhere near as good as the original. High quality mode is comparable to draft mode from the original ink. The letters aren't as crisp as they should be and looks faded in parts. It also has lots of trouble with thin straight lines which come out squiggly if they are even printed at all. Also takes time to ""warm up"" which means the first 2 pages look absolutely horrendous and the ones after are just simply bad so you'll probably end up throwing some prints away.2 stars because the prints are perfectly legible for my own personal notes, but I can't use this ink for something like a paper that I have to turn in."
+8523,2,For Everyone,"""This is the John Hagee Ministries, Promise - Problem - Provision, on five audio cassette.FOR EVERYONE should to study or listen...""[from the experience]"
+8524,2,RECOMMENDED VIEWING,"I love Cheryl Ladd, plus war and romantic movies, putting these three together gave a great little story to watch.It is an old 1980's movie but still has lost none of its modern day appeal.I would recommend this movie to anyone who would like to escape to a bit of nostalgia, the story line is excellent and Cheryl's beauty and talent shines through."
+8525,1,This is a rip off...,Stop the greedy tactics already and release the EEs!! People please dont buy the BD versions until the Extended Editions are released. They are stealing your money and making a tradition of it. Dont do it!
+8526,1,White Residue/ Sticky,"I hate these types of deodorants/anti-antiperspirants. Leaves a white residue on clothes and is also very sticky on your skin. Makes me want to run back home, throw my clothes in the washer and take a shower to get this sticky thing off my armpits."
+8527,2,Great soldering station,I got this as a gift and really needed it. I was using a cheapo radioshack soldering iron without temperature regulation. It was great for learning the trade a bit but this setup is much nicer. The provided iron is pretty nice. Has a foam comfortable handle and fits into the spring holder easily. The only complaint I would have with this is that the outlet on the side of the box that you plug the iron into doesn't seem very sturdy. I sometimes worry it is going to break when I am unplugging the iron. Other than that it is great!
+8528,2,Did not like the title,"The advice was excellent, but it is not about being a bitch. I don't like the word or the concept. A bitch is mean and immoral and hurts people for the fun of it. Standing up for yourself and not being a pushover is not bitchy. The book is about self confidence and being realistic about men."
+8529,1,Croatian Propaganda,"Mr. Mestrovic, an ethnic croat, writes a bogus, completely biased account ofthe civil war in Bosnia. He gets plenty of assistence to bash Serbs from a Muslim co-author. He rehashs the tired Zagreb-Sarajevo party line of a ""land grab"" by the serbs and completely ignores the fact that Serbs made up a full 33% of Bosnia before the war. He of course, completely ignores war crimes commnitted by Croats and Muslims against Serb civilians. Also, Mestrovic ignores the role of Croatia in fomenting war amongst the croats and Muslims. A good read for any student of propaganda. A poor work if one is searching for facts."
+8530,1,Firecracker!,"Had this model for about a year and it did clean a tiny bit of dust from the air, but after 6 months it started to make the crackle sound randomly. This crackle sound eventually got so bad that to have this thing on would be quite scary, and we did clean it regularly and let it dry overnight. I later looked inside to see that this crackling sound was little sparks of electricity! Really not a worth while item, and didn't seem to safe to have something that would be making sparks constantly. Eventually it seemed to stop working even when we would attempt to use with the crackling sounds."
+8531,2,InuYasha,"To lean draw InuYasha, Kagome, Kikyo, Shippo, Sango, Naraku, Sesshomaru, Miroku, Koga, Myoga, Kaede, and Kagura.Is so cool."
+8532,1,Don't Waste your money,"I was SO excited about this toy! But it is such a waste of money! The batteries are hello, INSANE! be ready to buy them and replace them all the time! Why can we not have a cord?? My girls are 3 and 5 and dont know ANY of the songs. I have not been able to throw it away yet but I am going to! They never even ask to play with it! JUNK!"
+8533,1,Leaky Kettle,"This kettle works great for boiling water, BUT when its done it slowly leaks water until its all out on your countertop. I have tried contacting Cuisinart support for help determining whether I have a defective kettle, or whether its just a poor design, but that have not replied to my repeated emails, and I don't have the time to spend on hold."
+8534,2,Tremendous Little Camera,"I purchased the N 2 through Amazon about a year ago , and I forgot to speak it's praises ! Sleek and very reponsive ! I own a number of D / Cameras , and this One is really a Keeper ! R E Keay"
+8535,2,Light flavored tea,"I got this tea because it is supposed to help with PMS and supposedly helps ""prepare"" the uterus for conception. I figured it can't hurt, so why not? I think this tea is very light flavored. I usually put some honey in it and it goes down great.As for the rest, I've only been using it (3 times a day) for the past 7 days and haven't gone a full cycle yet, so I don't know if it really does work for PMS yet or not."
+8536,1,Frightful.,"As a Christian theologian, I am obliged to comment on books that can easily lead others astray (like a wolf in sheep's clothing). In short, Pearl presents such a misguided view of women's roles that the few-and-far-between nuggets within are not worth searching for amidst the theological muck and spiritual mire. Do NOT buy this book."
+8537,2,Love the Case Files Series,"I used this is conjunction with Pretest peds and found it to be a great 1, 2 punch for the shelf. Those two are pretty much all you need to do well on the exam but if you're only going to do one, I'd get pretest. I bought this version as opposed to the newest one to save some $$ and it was well worth it."
+8538,2,Great product,"I purchased these to replace my plastic containers. At first I was afraid I was going to have a hard time with getting the lids off and on, they seemed really tight, but really I haven't had any issues with it. I love the size of the containers, they are perfect for leftovers for my family. Since I read so many reviews about the exploding glass, I decided I would not put them in the microwave for extended periods. I do put it in for just a few minutes and haven't had any issues so far (I've been using them for about 10 months now). They have held up fantastic so far, they look just as good as the day I got them."

+8541,1,Good Image For Girls?,"I'm sure Rosie has joined other feminists to criticizing Mattel for giving the Barbie doll such un-realistic proportions. Yet here the manufacturers of her doll, no doubt approved by her, have obviously felt free to disregard her actual hefty proportions to make a more commercially viable product. If Barbie is horrible for unrealistically portraying a woman's body, isn't this doll just as bad for unrealistically portraying Rosie's body?What a poor message to send young girls when even a purported crusader for ""body-acceptance"" puts forward a false image of her own figure just to make a few more bucks."
+8542,1,Fraud,"This is not the Battle of Midway with Henry Fonda et al. It is a 17 minute Department of War short, with actual footage. It is not the movie titled under Military and War as The Battle of Midway. Where is the latter?"
+8543,2,good quality charm bracelet,"I bought this as a wedding gift for my bride. I satisfied with the quality and it was beautiful. She also liked it and it was fit on her wrist. Thick, nice look, shiny, I am glad I didn't buy 6mm thin one. This is worth to buy. Recommend!"
+8544,2,Have another shroom Mickey!,"Well, you either love or hate this movie and I didnt much care for it much either the first time I caught it. But, about 20 viewings later I'd have to say I'm sort of hooked. Some people just dont get it, and that's understandable. The comedy is way over the top. Just hilarious. Both Woody and Tommy Lee Jones said this was their favorite film and I'm not gonna argue with that. Probably the most brilliant and creative movie of all time, and that's a bold statement but this wild masterpiece backs it up. And maybe the intent was not to glorify violence, but to shock the collective viewer both internal and external to the film to a higher state of consciousness? Who knows, and who cares. This is a landmark film and deserves more attention and respect than it got. 5 Rattlers."
+8545,1,A lot better if it was readable,"The book is OK although it totally leans toward Eagle software and doesn't say much else about other packages. The real downer is that the most important illustrations in the book are printed black on black on dark gray, like mud-on-mud graphics and you can't tell what's going on - at least in my copy. This is on the most important illustraions (to me anyway) which were the illustrations showing actual board traces and autorouting. Without being able to make out the illustrations the text becomes pretty meaningless. This is a very amateur graphics mistake that screams ""High School Yearbook""."
+8546,2,Hmmmmm....,"This book is like any other books I've read, not bad. The plot of this book is interesting though. It starts how how all these kids get kidnapped, and this man with a disease called XP tries to find them. Then he uncovers this huge secret that went on a few years back at this place called Fort Wyvern, before it closed down after a tragic accident. I give this book four stars because it deserves it."
+8547,1,This cappuccino maker leaks,This cappuccino maker leaks and it's very difficult to open. It does'nt have any thing on the side to hold on to in order to open. Don't buy this item and it's not worth it.
+8548,2,Hard find but amazing product!,"I'm a African-American woman who loves this product though its probably not intended for me. After I wash and condition my chemical free hair with Pantene women of color hair products, I follow up with ISO Bouncy creme and it makes my hair look really good! I get compliments all the time for how it defines my otherwise naturally kinky hair giving me beautiful curls. And I don't have to put any harsh chemicals in my hair or go to a salon to achieve this style!"
+8549,2,It doesn't get any better,"This is by far, the bible for segmented turning. I constantly refer to it to get ideas for new projects and hone my techniques. Even after several years of creating segmented bowls, I keep coming back to it for sound advice. Through experimentation, I developed a number of techniques for producing segmented bowls. But surprisingly, every single one of those techniques are described in this book. If I were to start over, this would be my single reference. Worth every penny."
+8550,1,What was she thinking!!!!,"Let me start by stating that I have been a die-hard fan of Jude Deveraux for over 15 years. I've followed the Montgomery's, Taggart's and every other family/book that she has written. I purchased this book at the airport thinking that I had found the ""perfect"" book to read on the 4 hour flight from Chicago to San Francisco. I had more fun staring out the window (at night)than reading this book. Darci wasn't that great a character in the first book that she was featured in. And now there is a whole book that is basically dedicated to her. The only thing that I can say about the character of Lincoln Aimes is that he is Ms. Deveraux managed to cram just about every steroetype of the African American male into the character that she could uncaring father, sex crazed, etc."
+8551,1,Bubblegum Sham,"This CD reminds me of the pirated VHS tapes sold by street vendors on major city streets. [...] The item description credits this CD to ""various artists"" and I naively assumed that the songs were the original recordings by the original artists.Bad mistake.This CD is comprised entirely of re-recorded cover versions of these old songs and it sounds like the same band on every song. The CD jacket reads "" all newly recorded digitally mastered music featuring The Hit Crew"".The Hit Crew?If you're looking for the original bubblegum records that were released in the late 1960's and early 1970's keep looking! This CD is NOT for you."
+8552,2,Terezin revisited,"Beautifully sung and played. Reminds one of the Berlin cafe music from the 1920s, which is probably where most of the composers found their niche. Sad to know that these people didn't survive, but their music lives on!"
+8553,2,WOW...,"Since we have a slew of reviews here already, I'll keep this short...WOW!!!I've been curious about this band for a long time. I finally took a chance on this disc. Having read the other reviews, I was expecting something mildly interesting of the ""psychadelic"" persuasion. But I never expected such a technically proficient quasi-prog jam band!To begin, these guys are tight instrumentalists! Each track is river of shifting themes and groovy jams. Rather than actual ""tunes,"" most pieces are simply a skeletal frame for a collage of interveaving jam passages that ebb and flow, carrying you along.It's hard to really lump these guys under any genre label, because they're too weirdly unique. They come accross sounding a little like techno--but only superficially, because they're much deeper than any tecno I've ever heard (I'm no fan of techno).Basically, these guys are impossible to categorize. And after hearing this one disc, I've become an instant fan. :D"
+8554,2,Speculative fiction that deals with a sensitive subject,"Adam-Michael James takes an interesting twist on family cruelty and poses a big ""what if?"" What if you could undo all the bad things that happened to you? Would you be better off, or would you make matters worse. What if you could be transported in time? What would you do, what would you not do? That's the premise of ""Undo the Deed.""James' speculation makes for an interesting novel. In some ways, it is reminiscent of the famous book by Marge Piercy ""A Woman On the Edge of Time"" --in that novel a woman in an abusive relationship finds herself transporting back and forth in time. Here, the protagonists get choices, take chances. If you like speculative fiction, and fiction that deals with an emotionally charged subject such as abuse, you will find ""Undo the Deed"" fascinating. I did. (The subject can of course be disturbing if you are a victim of child abuse--so be forwarned. )"
+8555,1,pedantic prose,"Unfortunately, what could have been a riviting excursion into the psyche of two characters whose mothers played overwhelming roles in their development, the book never seems to develop fully. The two men remain shadow figures, neither developed nor illuminated. The Mussolini's Ghost segment, while somewhat interesting, missed being funny. The heavy, pedantic approach to motherhood leaves one with the sense that both characters, and perhaps the author, are mysogynists."
+8556,1,Garbage,Very vulgar and degrading. It is a shame that there is a market for this junk. This will appeal to those who are flippant about sexual ethics. Catholics should find this offensive because it makes a mockery out of a Sacrament. Vince Vaughn plays a very contemptible fellow. There are much better ways to use your time and money.
+8557,2,LOOK NO FURTHER,"IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A QUALITY WATCH AT A REASONABLE PRICE, THEN LOOK NO FURTHER. INVICTA HAS A WATCH FOR THE MOST SOPHISTICATED INDIVIDUAL OR JUST SOMEONE LOOKING FOR A VERY RELIABLE TIME PIECE. BUY ONE... YOU'LL BE GLAD YOU DID!"
+8558,2,Lipman humor at its best...,"As someone who has read ALL of Elinor Lipman books, let me just tell the ""first timers"" out there that you are in for a treat. All of Lipman's books are literary gems, and My Latest Grievance is no exception. Frederica Hatch and her politically correct ""before it was cool"" parents will delight and entertain even the most jaded readers- perhaps those most of all. Lipman has a real knack for capturing the idiosyncrasies of academia, and this provides limitless opportunities for brilliant satire.The complications surrounding the Professors Hatch, an ex-wife, and a precocious daughter are a pleasure to read."
+8559,2,Works great,I bought this becasue I have babies and wanted to get away from more conventional dishwasher detergents. This product works great. No complaints.
+8560,1,Aptly titled,"Cameo is one of the longest lasting and most successful funk bands, with a rich and memorable legacy of work. However, by 1992, Cameo (and funk music in general) had become about as exciting as mildew, a fact made obvious by this excruciatingly bad album."
+8561,2,Works well,"This blade cuts well and true without leaving many, if any, splinters. I just got done building a deck with it and I could not be happier."
+8562,2,Great Read!,I found this book in the library and picked it up on a whim. I started to read and was blown away by the rich texture of the story.The premiss of the book fascinated me; tidea of reading about women who lived during Old testament time was excitig and new; the details of the period added rich color and life to these well known characters.I loved the book and am sad there was not more to hear from Dinah or the author. For similar premises I recomend works by India Edgehill.please visit me at BookDevour.blogspot.com
+8563,2,Excellent high quality learning toy,"I bought this for my very bright 6 yr old daughter and let me say it is wonderful. She plays store for hours and loves it! It is made very sturdy and of high quality materials, has many learning functions and is as realistic as they get. Great buy, worth every penny, will exceed your expectations. Would buy again."
+8564,1,Not like I remember...,I have read better renditions of this fairy tale..sent this to my children for the grand children & our kids were highly disappointed in the story.
+8565,2,What a PLOTZ!,"Dude, this album comes right out of the gate and blows a vanna! But it makes up for it by the end, and just when you think these guys almost zonked, the whole thing comes together. Track 7 sounds like a bloads to me, but what the hey, I've been tone deaf ever since I had the Sour Mash at Dylan's. Rock on fellars! Grover"
+8566,2,A good book about the mental aspects of trading.,"This is the best book written about the psychological and mental aspects of trading. This book hasn't got much about technical analysis, entry or exit points, but tells you how to handle trading mentally."
+8567,2,Fantastic show I tell you what....,"A great show that kept gettng better I agree this was one of the better seasons. However at this time, for what ever reason (I don't ""buy"" the lack of interest considering what other duds of DVDs of other shows and movies are out there)they stopped producing this show onto DVD with this season.We KOTH fans would like to see more. This site is helping that happen.. I hope. [...]."
+8568,2,Bryan's greatest album,"""Reckless"" is when Bryan was at his peek.There still playing songs everyday on the radio from this album. From the beutifull ballad,""Heaven."" To my favorite hard rocking song of all time,""The summer of 69,"" This record will be remembered forever.I love Bryan's voice,especially on the Tina Turner duet,""It's only Love.""They should do a whole album together.""Run to You"" is a classic.Bryan Adams is still turning out great records,but ""Reckless"" is his best."
+8569,2,"Another Example of ""Age Ain't Nothing But a Number""","Actually I gave 4.5 Stars. When I listened to this debut for the first time,I really doubted whether she was only 14 years old,cuz Monica's vocal showed mature talent indeed...I like every track in the album, which always lets me feel so comfortable...A pretty good work of modern R&B;!BTW,I think that Monica should leave Missy,which maybe is the most important thing for her..."
+8570,2,Gift.,Disclaimer: I have not read these books. I bought these as a gift for my wife and she absolutely loves them.Every free moment she has is spent reading these books. If you have a woman in your life that likes these type of books (romance/fantasy) they will most likely enjoy the Sleeping Beauty Trilogy.
+8571,1,Like paper mache,"The chairs look great and the finish is incredibly nice. Underneath, it's a ridiculous, flimsy engineered wood that doesn't hold up when you sit on it. Not only poor quality, but a health and safety hazard as well."
+8572,1,Very boring,Boo! It was very boring. We stopped watching it half way through. We felt like we wasted our money and time.
+8573,1,My OLD adapter works way better,"I've got an old cassette adapter that has began to make a clicking noise. Seeing as flipping the adapter over reduces the noise, I figured the cassette was the problem so I bought this.This cassette also made a clicking noise, and the sound quality was horrible compared to my older adapter, which happens to be made by SONY...The sound that comes from the SONY sounds like it's coming from my CD player, the sound coming from THIS item sounds like a 32kbps sound file (poor quality).I plan on returning it and maybe looking for another product.On the upside, this item does have a groove in it that allows the wire to exit the cassette from either side which could be helpful for certain players..."
+8574,1,I have given up hope listening to Lang Lang again,"Shame on Deutsche Grammophon to have promoted aggressively such an incoherent pianist like Lang Lang. Yellow label is just not yellow any more from the way DG has promoted Lang Lang. I don't have to wait for Lang Lang to be more mature to listen to him again as I know if one is not musically mature at his age, he will remain that way forever."
+8575,1,"Good animated movie, but not much for 3D...","Good movie but not as great as 1st one...1st movie certainly is impressive but as they say, its hard to have a great sequel..In this case thats exactly what happened...If you are looking for as great 3d effects as first one, you will be disappointed, good humor having The Rock Dwayne Johnson involved, but not worth the sale overall.."
+8576,1,Not his best,"Long time Clancy fan. Have read everything including his non-fiction works. Just finished Red Rabbit and found it very slow and boring. As many have said before, one would not know it was a Clancy work if his name and picture weren't on the cover. It seems Mr. Clancy has sold out his fans, for quick rewards."
+8577,2,Powerful and refreshing angle on Holiday favorites. Get it!,"Gather powerhouse musicians, an orchestra, choir, and writer Rob Mathes, and what do you get? You get an incredible seasonal masterpiece of songs only available, until now, to select audiences. Rob Mathes has made a name for himself in the New York area as a powerful singer/song writer, who really knows how to put on a show. With his guest musicians Vanessa Williams, Michael McDonald, and David Sanborn, he has created a live CD that every household should have throughout the holidays! Keep it coming!"
+8578,1,Painful,This movie took everything that made the other films great and threw them out the window. There is a reason this movie was named Worst Movie of the Year by film critics.It is to the Raiders Legacy what jar Jar and Episode I is to Star Wars. Painful to watch.
+8579,1,Awful Travel Clock,Avoid this travel clock. The clasp is so tight I had to struggle to open it. The night light beeps every time you activate it; can't be turned off. Just what I need when I wake up during the night and I want to see what time it is.Chucked it in the waste basket. Look elsewhere.
+8580,2,Season 2 better than Season 1,"This started a little slow, but by the third episode I was hooked. Each episode told a different story but the continuity with the characters was excellent. I wondered how it would all end, but was completely satisfied."
+8581,1,Not even for the price,"If you want to turn your kids off of science at a young age this is perfect for you. Focusing actually moves the entire unit and it is frustrating trying to get any semblance of focus. When you do get it focused, you can only ask yourself ""Is this it?"". It's like looking through several layers of saran wrap at something even when focused. I had no luck using the projector to see if it improved any. The whole product just feels cheap and flimsy, even for the price."
+8582,2,Weight Tree,"I ordered this weight tree and after assembling the legs to the stand there was a lot of ""play"" and the stand was wobbly. I contacted Deltech and without hesitation they shipped a replacement tree the next day. Excellent customer service. The new stand is fine. For the price this is a very sturdy product and the customer service was top notch. Would purchase their products again."
+8583,2,What a fun read!!,"First I have to say how much I enjoyed this book!! I honestly didn't expect to like it as much as I did. The characters were well thought out and well developed and this has very good writing. It had a plot twist here and there, not a lot, but what a fun read.Rees doesn't go along with the ""usual"" vampire legends (doesn't like sun light and garlic, ect) but explains where the ""misinformation"" comes from and make his own legend to vampires and does a fantastic job at it. There is one surprise character, but I don't wan to say anything more than that. You'll have to read if for yourself.The plot of the book is simple, a boy, Cody has to go to a new school, but the thing is soon, he realizes that the school is full of mostly vampires. It seems basic enough but soon Cody has to learn the ropes. As I said, it's a fun read that I highly suggest.I sure hope there are more books in the series. If there are, I'll be the first to buy them.Read this, you won't be sorry."
+8584,2,Help for a Sacred Institution,"It is truly a gift to recieve practical advice on maintaining a successful marriage. We live in a time where marriage is the subject of negative jokes, divorce is a household word, and fidelity seems to be a thing of the past. Maximize Your Marriage is a refreshing look at the components and complexities of marriage. In addition, the book is written in a straightforward manner and is geared toward high impact. Only one with experience could have penned so provocative a book. My spouse and I were high school sweethearts and have spent the last 22 years of our lives together. This book has been instrumental in strengthening our bond and helping us to understand that what we have can be the norm. This book is an investment in a secure future of marital bliss.We have purchased multiple copies to share with family and friends."
+8585,1,Terrible!,"This adapter didn't work at all when I got it. So just for the heck of it I took it apart to maybe see what was the problem and the antenna is only there for looks. It isn't even attached. haha dumbest thing i've ever seen. This is why the other person that rated this doesn't get good reception. The only good thing about this transaction was that the company I bought them from credited me without even returning them. Very promptly too.they probably realized they were junk too. haha Surprisingly walmart sells a very nice adapter for $20.00. This is cheaper (after shipping) easier, and doesn't have that useless antenna."
+8586,2,Very good music!!,"I am 14 and I grew up watching the mvie and now I just bought this soundtrack. It's very good energetic and cool music. Some of the songs are ""Hello Dolly"", ""Elegance"", ""Put on your Sunday Clothes"", etc. Borrow it from the library before you buy so be sure you like the sound of the music. For all the moms out there, I recommend you introduce your children to this movie and music."
+8587,2,"Simple, Light, Great","Really slick. Bought for my wife.Nice tight fit for Macbook or similar.Not much room for extras like mouse or power cord, but they can be squeezed in there if necessary.Has held up really well over the 2+ years we've had it."
+8588,2,Very sweet,This was a beautiful book with a sweet ending. Definitely some beauty in the memories the main character reminisced on and the reader can get hooked.
+8589,1,Buyer Beware!,"I thought this was the PERFECT gift when I opened it at my baby shower because I just loved The Girlfriend's Guide to Pregnancy, and so did my gift-giver. We really could relate to Vicki and her Girlfriends! However, once I started reading the sequel, it left me VERY disappointed, and like some other reviewers, downright depressed. This book is ideal for the woman who breastfeeds, or the woman that doesn't mind not having sex or getting back into shape. As for the rest of us that choose to bottle feed (HEAVEN FORBID!) and actually enjoy sex (OMG!) and working out(PLEASE do not take her advice and wait 6 months - WHY?!?) don't waste your money on this book. She promotes breastfeeding because she gets orgasms from it - enough said."
+8590,1,Doesn't work with Q9m or Q9c Verizon,"Seems like a good little charger. Functional. Easy. And the battery charging station in back is nice as well. Sadly it doesn't fit my Q9m. You have to really jam it on there and then it says ""This is not a valid Motorola Charger."" So it won't even charge it.If you had the classic Q I'm sure it would fit though. Still for 4 bucks, it's worth it if you've got the right phone."
+8591,2,Great seat for young children,"I have used this seat extensively with my youngest daughter, now one, and have found it to be priceless at keeping her secure and safe from the yucky things one finds on shopping carts. I would highly recommend this to any new mom who prefers to use store shopping carts to keep their babies comfortable and safely seated."
+8592,1,"Deceptively marketed as ""candy""","I like to get unusual or strange candies (often foreign) for my nieces and nephews for their birthdays, just to try for fun. This was one I thought sounded interesting to try. It literally made me nauseous for quite some time. If you're looking for tiny packets of salt, this is the product for you. If it's candy you want, keep looking....."
+8593,2,works just fine,"I just wanted to say that the first review is incorrect. A simple search online or a look around in a beauty supply store or simply asking your hair stylist will let you know that though these rollers are called magnetic, they are not! That is just the name of the product. I have a few sets of magnetic rollers and I love them! They set my african american hair for the week as well as really lowering the damage to my hair (low heat setting on the dryer). If you're the type of person that is trying to lower their hair's exposure to heat yet still want to have a hair style, then rollersetting is the best thing.Here's a great site where you can start your hair journey right: [...]"
+8594,1,Tasteless and pathetic,"A little too much graphic sex and too little romance. I am a romance writer and definetly no prude but there's a fine line between vulgar and tasteful. This story is just plain vulgar. It's like Penny Jordan couldn't find anything else for the characters to do so she just writes a lot of smut until Julia gets knocked up and Silas admits he loves her. The gist I also got from this story is that they're distant relatives, grossness! Plus Silas is egotistical and way too pushy. There's nothing wrong with being a modern day girl who enjoys sex but Julia just sounds like a sl*t instead of a likable heroine. Want a better read with tasteful sex scenes? Then read Fugitive Fiancee by Kristin Gabriel or Father by Choice by M.J. Rodgers or the Wedding Planners trilogy by Darcy Maguire. They're written better without a lot of smut like this book!"
+8595,1,Snooze,"If you like boring, cacophonous guitar, then by all means, listen to ""Heavy"" by Tegan & Sara. But I must warn you: if you decide to torture yourself by playing this song, you should probably wait for a night when you are plagued with intense insomnia because this song will put you to sleep. The repetition in the lyrics is rivaled only by the recurrence of a single sound produced by scratching a fork against a desk, although I think that Tegan & Sara actually considers it guitar. She sings about being unstoppable, but the stop button on my CD player begs to differ. I strongly do not recommend listening to this song unless you wish to punish yourself mercilessly. Seriously, just shoot yourself in the foot and you'll get the same effect."
+8596,2,studying urban regions,"While the book came out in 1977, much of its discussion appears focused on events in the US in the 60s. The topics include urban redevelopment, and how to reduce racism within the inner cities. The book is directed to urban planners, offering suggestions on setting up an analytic framework to study a given city. The ""Model City"" figures prominently. This is a theoretical construct that planners can use, in which to envision suggestions for changes.Another topic is how to involve the community as deeply as possible. To get ""buy in"" by various interested stakeholders. So that they indeed perceive that they are stakeholders in proposed developments."
+8597,1,A Giant Surprise is A Giant Rip-off,"Nothing Narnia here, nothing C.S. Lewis here, nothing worth buying here.Beware the onslaught of Narnia ""branding"". C.S. Lewis would be appalled at this trite, giggly desecration."
+8598,2,Outstanding forethought and dedication to oneself.,"I have followed Tyra's career and was very proud to see her on the front of Sports Illustrated. After having the opportunity to read her book, you can find out that now only she a beautiful woman, she is smart, articulate and fun loving. I read an article in JET magazine about her having a hard time getting a date. Yet after reading her book, I can not figure why that would be, when she is so down to earth. God Bless you.."
+8599,1,Don't Install Roxio 9. Will crash system,"I installed Roxio 9 and it was worthless to me. I uninstalled it and now my Roxio 7 that I use all the time, will not work. I have just about given up on ever getting it to work again. Creator Classic and Disc Copier will not work. They give me a API error. Just Google Roxio API, or go to Roxio site and look under Creator 9 Discussion group for API error. It is causing a lot of problems. I don't want to have to HD reformat and restore. That seems to be the only way to fix it at this time. Restore does not help."
+8600,1,Device great but don't buy if you only have Macintosh,"The device is great, audio quality and features fine, but their proprietary audio format and lack of ANY Macintosh software that can read it is infuriating. Fortunately I use boot camp but it is a pain. Sony should give you the option to recording uncompressed WAV or AIF, and not just their lousy MSV format. I knew before the purchase that the software they provide was not Mac compatible, but didn't know that the audio could not be read by ANY Mac software. Sony, get your act together."
+8601,1,Unreliable: Stuttering Audio,"As a radio broadcaster, I've had to dump this unreliable product. In XP, on a 1.99 GHz laptop with a gig of memory, Transit's recordings are frequently flawed by stuttering and what sounds like the product's inability to keep up while writing line input content.Sections of a recording will skip madly, missing bytes, then clear up. Other times, the recordings are damaged to the end of the file, the unit cannot recover -- even through periods of silence. Capturing live content where no retakes are possible is a complete gamble.I can only assume this is a fatal hardware flaw. Nothing on M-Audio's web site addresses the issue ehich others have mentioned here, and an hour on hold for each attempt to talk to tech support uses up any cost-effective attempt at a solution. We've thoroughly field-tested the M-Audio Transit, and it's failed."
+8602,1,amazon box contains less than what you can get elsewhere,"Pay careful attention to the number of diappers included in this value box! It is smaller than the normal box you usually get from other stores or from amazon, thus the price is not really cheap.I purchased the No 3 Cruisers value box from amazon twice, one box came with 160 diapers, and one came with 116 diapers"
+8603,2,Great,"Great spoon, is very big which I was not accustomed to, but is working wonderfully. Very sturdy."
+8604,2,This is My Favorite Toy !,My mother-in-law bought this for my 4-year-old on his 5th birthday. He is 6 now and it is still one of his favorite toys! We have liked it so much that we bought another one for my 3 year old. We keep them both in the car along with a plastic box full of our Leap books and cartridges. This toy makes driving around or waiting in teh doctor's office fun. I would recommend it to anyone!!!!!
+8605,1,Bad,"Infelizmente eu no recebi o livro que eu queria. Eu pedi o livro 2 (1941-1960), mas eles enviaram o livro número um (1.923-1940). Quero devolver imediatamente. Meu telefone é 55-11-7066-7495 no Brasil, estou aguardando seu contato. Graas."
+8606,2,Great collection,"I recently watched the movies on DVD and decided to buy the bluray set. It's amazing, has everything you want and more, if you liked the previous versions by this right now!!!"
+8607,1,LAME and CHEAP,"I bought this tape thinking I would learn something: I don't dance at all. Half the tape is full of ""testimonials"" from other students. Some of the women look like deer caught in the headlights! To me, it was worthless. They do teach some basic stuff and you will learn, but very little. You'll learn more by going to a strip club. The instructor's movements seem robotic, as if she's never actually done this before. It was a waste of good money."
+8608,2,Great product for the price,"I replaced an older inverter with this one and it is not only smaller, but quieter as well. Easy to install and all in all great value for the dollar."
+8609,1,Waste of Money and Waste of Time,"I wished I had read the comments about this toy before buying it last night. The instructions were terrible, the toy is flimsy, it's definitely NOT worth the money!!! This toy does not deserve a star rating! My four year old, even asked me to take it back!... Took it back and received a refund this afternoon. Again...Don't bother buying this toy!"
+8610,1,Academic Elitism At Its Worst,"This book, beside being boring is superficial, and a bit presumptuous. There could have been a more meaningful treatise on the concept of spin, political correctness, and corporate and educational jargon, and many of the ironies of modern life which go well beyond mere deception. Instead, we get a tome significant only for being so ponderous despite being so small.If the book were not so titled, no one would have bought it."
+8611,1,RM-AX4000 Junk,"This is not only a waste of money,but a waste of time. The set up disk wouldn't run. After two frustrating hours on the phone with a tech who hardling knew english,and she couldn't get this junk to work. It could not find the Sat.code, then it could not find the DVD codes, wouldn't pair up. In fact, it took any hour to set up a Sony sound system to a Sony remote. Need a say more. WHAT A WASTE. Sony should be ashamed!"
+8612,1,Waterhole #3 VHS,"This VHS is bad quality it jumps and it's just no good, But can't find the box it came in to return it. I was upset about this my husband just loves this movie, Thanks for checking with me on this item."
+8613,2,a true person,"wow...its amazing how gullible you people are, accepting the words of a man you dont even knowi can confidently say that none of you know the FIRST thing about being a muslim, and just by hearing the opinions of one person who hates islam you have made your decision about your opinion of islam. ""islam is a threat to our society"", ""islam will kill us all"", ""muslims have all the weapons to kill us"", ""we're so scared we're going to move back into our mom's house in texas."" get a grip people. is it not the objective of ALL religions to convert as many people to their religion, even the whole world, so that everyone can experience and love the religion that they love so that they can be saved? then why are you making these ridiculous arguments that ""islam wants the world to be converted, and therefore they must be bad."" gee, what a great argument. i'm really going to be scared now."
+8614,1,Lens Error,"This camera worked really great, but unfortunately only worked for 1-1/2 weeks. If you drop it even a few inches with the lens open, it will break. My wife was holding it, and it slipped out of her hand while sitting at the dinner table. Even falling 5-6 inches was enough to make the lens jam.If you have ever dropped a phone, remote, or camera, this is not for you. I would only recommend it for someone that is naturally carefull. Paid $210 for camera on Amazon, and repair would cost $135 for a new lens. Now I plan to sell it on Ebay for parts, and look for a different camera."
+8615,2,Was Not Sure It would Work but it did!,I bought this product due to the fact the my Carbon Fiber Hood was fading. I did research and a lot of people used this product for there faded CF hood and had some good results. So I took a chance and bought the Fiberglass Restoration Kit. Before the use of the product I would grade my CF hood 7/10 and 10 being really faded. I took me a total of 4 days of usage of the kit to have my CF hood looking brand new. It is like night and day what a difference. But the CF hood will start to fade again if you dont polish and wax at least once a month.
+8616,2,Herbology 101,"Great overview of herbs and their magical, medicinal, and other uses. A great book for anyone who ever wondered about herbs like Mugwort, Mandrake, or Gilliweed. Are they real? What are they really used for? This book will tell you that and So Much More!"
+8617,2,Works very well for us!,"We have had this for 6 months and have found that it works very well. I think some of the other reviewers were exaggerating a bit on their reviews. It doesn't ""choke"" when making fruit smoothies, nor does it have a problem handling ice. Actually it's the most powerful for the price I think.Of course I have to admit that it is a bit time consuming to clean, but most blenders I have seen will have this issue.The gasket has never caused us problems. Maybe we were using it correctly...? :)I am happy with this product. Looking forward to many years of no-problem use."
+8618,2,Words cannot describe...,"... but I'll try. I saw the film in-between my mother's two bouts with breast/bone cancer. At the time, I was completely in awe of Emma Thompson's incredibly personal portrayal of this woman; now, I'm still in awe of her, but also of how accurately and humanely this difficult yet wonderful story treats the main character's struggle at the end of her life's journey. This year in particular has involved quite a lot of death in my family, that of my in-laws, and several of my co-workers. I find myself constantly coming back to the scene with Vivian and her professor discussing the punctuation of ""death, thou shalt die."" Just a comma separates us from life and life eternal, the professor tells her - not an exclamation point, not a dramatic pause... just a comma. Indeed, this movie will stay with you, and may even help you with your own struggles in coping with death."
+8619,2,Great drum for your little drummer boy....,"We bought this drum for our (now) 3 1/2 year old son about a year ago. He LOVED it!!! He played it every day, but after awhile, the drum head got a lot of little dents in it and it eventually just caved in. But, a year's worth of fun and music is well worth (...)"
+8620,2,Important book for the hate-ridden nation,"A well-documented collection of articles and essays about the prison nation USA and what it has done, and will do to the millions of American children, orphaned because their mom or dad, or both wanted to feel better in the hostile environment of today. The devastation of American families, proliferation of homosexuality as a result of mass incarceration, destruction of millions of lives - all these crimes of the American system of ""justice"" are well-documented and scholarly presented in this book. Invisible Punishment is highly recommended to those who want to understand the essence and the consequence of the world's largest, American Gulag. A great supplement to this fact-oriented book would be www.nationofhate.us - the web site that multiplies the impact of those facts with a powerful emotional impact (unrelated to the authors and publishers of the Invisible Punishment)."
+8621,1,Only one side,"One side is nice. The other side is meant to be hidden, has all the protruded iron fittings etc. How do you find a place to set it up where one side will be hidden? This is a challenge. Thus 2 stars, as I would not repeat the purchase, and have not yet resolved usage for the unit received -- that is, where this could be hung that would be compatible with its major design flaw.IF this were two-sided, then I'd 5-star it, based on current sell price of a stained glass piece at $6, together with its stated spec of holding 30lb weight.Also, what makes me particularly sad that this is not displayable at both sides is the consideration that this would have looked especially lovely as a hanging mount for one of those stained glass animal flappers made by this company (BirdBrain)."
+8622,1,Like it BUT..,"It does not keep the coffee hot for long. It keeps it ""luke warm"" but not hot. I love the mug and keep putting hot coffee in it to keep it warm."
+8623,2,Works great for me!,"Picked this up for something in my pickup and this works pretty good. There is very little if any mechanical noise from it and the transfer of sound is pretty decent. I've used it in my car (tapedeck/cd changer) and the sound isn't that bad. It's a little soft but works better than the FM transmitters I've been using before. Solid product, now to see how long it lasts. :)"
+8624,2,"Kurt Nilsen ""I""",I was fortunate enough to watch World Idol. Fortunate because I found Kurt Nilsen. Occasionally life hands you a pleasant surprise as was the case here. I was blown away by his voice. I knew he would win the moment I heard him. I have been a big fan ever since. I have not stopped playing this CD since I bought it and continually search online for more music by Kurt and his band Fenrik Lane. I would recommend this CD to anyone. He is a breath of fresh air in the idol world since he writes his own music and plays guitar and other instruments as well. He is a multi-talented caring young man who deserves to be a worldwide superstar.
+8625,1,This thing will implode!,I really liked the Vacu Vin. I used it a lot and found that if you pierced the meat with a fork before you added the marinade and pulled the vacuum that it worked great. Then one night I was marinating chicken in Italian dressing. I pulled the vacuum and then boom! I (and the kitchen) were covered with chicken and Italian dressing. Took a hour to clean up the mess. I think I probably pumped it too much and pulled too much of a vacuum. The instructions should really warn customers about this. I'd like to purchase another but I'm a bit shelled shocked at the moment.(I don't think the cat will ever return to the kitchen if he sees another one!)
+8626,2,Help for Granchild,My granddaughter wanted this book for her birthday. I never told her that I would get it; so she was very happy and surprised when she received it.
+8627,1,"Hey, Josef Gulick! time to face reality!","Aparrently you are another MTV worshipping teeny bopper, WHAT IN GOD'S NAME ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT????????????!!!!!!!!!??????!!Rock and roll hall of fame????!!!!!!! AARON CARTER IS NOT ROCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HE'S JUST ANOTHER TALENTLESS POP STAR SINGING ABOUT HOW COOL HE IS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Rock 'n roll hall of fame????!!!! That just goes to show you how MTV can brainwash anyone into thinking that bubblegum pop is rock 'n roll. Don't watch MTV, otherwise you'll end up like our dear friend Josef, thinking that Aaron Carter is rock 'n roll. Siiiiiiggghhhhhhh..............................................."
+8628,2,All Brides of Culdee Creek series,"I loved this series. Gives a look into the life in the mid and late 1800's. Easy read, had a rd time putting them down!"
+8629,1,Disappointing and predictable,"While the story was entertaining, the plot was completely translucent. I saw the ""surprise ending"" coming after the first few chapters. In fact, I was not surprised at any point in the book. It became a game of waiting for all of the characters to catch up to me, not exactly what you want when reading a thriller. Still, it was a fun read and I enjoyed the higher moral purpose. The writing was fast-paced if not incredibly cheesy at points. But what do you want? I bought it at the supermarket check-out line."
+8630,2,"groovy, swinging jazz","Recorded live at The Bohemian Caverns in Washington, D.C., ""The 'In' Crowd"" is The Ramsey Lewis Trio at the peak of their eclectic but popular sound. It has the intimacy and spontaneity of music recorded live, but the precision of music played by those who have talent. A bit bluesy, a bit groovy, swinging, boppy jazz. It's good music for driving, for cooking dinner, as background at a party, and, most importantly, for listening to. There is a generous selection of samples on this site. Try the title track...if you don't like it, you won't like this CD. But if you do, keep going with the Tennessee Waltz, Love Theme from Spartacus, or Come Sunday. I defy your toes not to tap, you to not at least add this to your wish list."
+8631,2,"Worth it for the ""Dr. Evil"" Theme","This bizarre song by They Might Be Giants [with legendary vocalist Goldie Goldwater doing a Shirley Bassey-Lulu send up] makes the album worthwhile.The other songs, including Marvin Gaye, The Bangles and the racuous ""Bachelor Pad"" number (hearing it you feel like a throw back into Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In) are good, unadulterated fun, but they lack the quirky orchestration that makes this track a fun song to remember the lyrics to (they are some of the funniest, most mordant, I have ever heard).Enjoy!"
+8632,2,I loved the CD!,This album is really great! In a few words: THE CD OF THE CENTURY! This album is indicated to those who love music with quality and full of harmony!
+8633,1,Hooker's theology through Booty's eyes,"This book is written from the perspective of one of the great minds of the Episcopal church. No one living has written more about Hooker than Booty. Booty attempts to integrate modernist thought (neo-orthodoxy?) with Hooker's worldview. I think his effort falls short. In all fairness the book is entitled ""Reflections..."" In reality, Booty holds a mirror up to the theology of Hooker and finds his own (Booty's) image.This is a must-have book for those who want the latest from Booty. The rest of us may want to check it out from our seminary library."
+8634,1,Limp Bizkit sucks,"Honestly, does anybody even give a s**t anymore? I have made fun of this manufactured, no talent, washed up, pathetic excuse of humans band enough, and saying something would be like me repeating fourty things about this band over and over...Conclusion: This is crap!"
+8635,1,Stylish Boredom,"If set design and sepia toned sense of bleakness were what was required to mint a movie classic then Brasil would be up there with Citizen Kane. That is not the case and Brasil falls far short. I could use up many paragraphs describing the short comings of this film, instead I will restrict myself to a few words, too long, unconvincing, tedious and in the end annoying. Terry Gilliam is a great set designer, sorry to say little more, this film in common with his other works is all over the place. Cinema would be better served were he to hand the direction of his films over to somebody who can actualy direct and keep control of the artistic direction himself. Six of us watched this film together and at the end only two remained awake. Nuff Said"
+8636,2,This Song Is Great!,"I Wanna Love You Forever, by Jessica Simpson is the sweetest song I've ever heard. I heard it on the radio, & had to find out who sang it... because it just touched my heart. See... I just got engaged in August, and I'm now in the process of trying to find the perfect wedding song, & I think I might of just found it! Thanks........Angela!"
+8637,1,GOOD ENTRY LEVEL BOOK,The book is informative. Unfortunatly not much info on ballistics and effective distances. More doing with the people that are linked with the .50 BMG. Similar to an Elmer Kieth entry were the 44 Magnum is mentioned. Still a good book just not as in depth or balistic related as originally informed it would be.
+8638,1,Falling into his own trap,"While Bruce Bawer's critique of much of the religious tradition is true and reasonably well written, this book reads as if he became angry one weekend, and wrote it while ranting. It is important that when one critiques others for not seeking to understand the positions of those they disagree with, that one try to do this oneself. His critiques of much of the history of Western Christianity, while they contain some truth, require much greater nuance and care."
+8639,2,Water for Elephants- A Good Read,"I enjoyed this book as evidenced by the fact that it only took me a few days to read. The characters are engrossing and realistic. It is amazing that Sara was able to write the part of an old man with such realism. When I read a book, I also like to learn well researched real facts. This book did not disappoint in that area. The history is interesting and accurate. The end of the book is satisfying. If you would like to ""get lost"" in a great book, this is a good choice."
+8640,1,"This book is tiresome, trite and",boring. I read Sarum and London and enjoyed them both but this is just not the same. ZZZZZZzzzzzzzzz
+8641,1,Mythos - 'Concrete City' (Spalax),"Originally released in 1979,as this was the band's fourth record.I liked two of their earlier works better,their 1971 self-titled debut and 'Strange Guys'(see my reviews of both).'Concrete City' is simply too artsy-fartsy/progressive for me.CD has six tracks,as the only two that managed to hold my full attention were ""Flamenco Bay"" and ""Neutron Bomb"" that features a bit of the early Mytho's vibe.Just might possibly appeal to some fans of Focus,Curved Air,Eloy and Nektar.Pretty much for completists."
+8642,2,Great Dog Food,"This is by far the best dog food I have ever used. My dachshund has one of those ""rare"" coat colors, the product of a gene mutation, which results in short, very fine hair, no undercoat, and occasional bouts of hair loss (when not on the proper diet, apparently.) I had tried a number of foods, both economical and higher end, and not one really seemed to work well, as he also has a weakened immune system and digestive issues. I found this product in my local health food store and decided to try it. It didn't take long before his coat was shiny and practically lush! Its the only food I have tried that has done that. Its easily digestible (they also make one with fewer ingredients that i have since discovered that is great for dogs with allergies) and doesn't leave him lethargic the way some brands did. Its worth every penny."
+8643,2,Awesome sound for an awesome price!,"I got these for my wife as a Christmas gift, and they work very well. I was concerned about the speakers not having a grill over the front, but they are not delicate little pieces of paper.The sound quality is excellent, and the remote control works very well, complete with a line-in jack (so you can plug in your iPod without having to plug something in to the computer) and headphone jack."
+8644,2,Works Good,The product works well cleaning up after our puppy. We use it on our wood floors and carpet. We like it and will order it again.
+8645,1,Susan is no Ann Coulter!,"Why would anyone spend money for this book? It is just more whining. Susan needs to get her own material and stop trying to be an imitation of someone else. Isn't Susan happy in her own skin and with her own looks?Ann has the facts on her side. Susan represents the party that is quite happy taking scissors and sticking them in the back of the neck of a partially born baby whom they want to kill. Need I say more about who is ""Soulless and Godless""? Don't waste your time and money with this book."
+8646,1,VIRTUAL FOOTBALL,"The virtual football that we ordered was sent w/ a corroded battery compartment. I made numerous attempts to email/ contact the Carolina Toy Dept. & no one has responded. This is extremely frustrating to me considering how excited my son was to play w/ this toy after he opened it on Xmas morning. In addition, I paid almost $40 for this toy that I should have just thrown down the drain. I will never again order from Amazon or Carolina Toy Dept."
+8647,2,Dan The Man,"I admit I am a big fan of Dan Kennedy,so I was not disappointed with the NO BS Sales Success. There are pearls of wisdom for the experienced salesperson as well as the newbie who still believes the customer really will ""think about it""and get back to him. Well worth reading and re reading again."
+8648,1,THIS GOT PUBLISHED?,"If you like stories that have no character develeopment and little to no plot, by all means pick this up.Reading the back of this cover it would seem that this would be a great read. A girl descends into Hell to save her sister who has committed suiced. While she is there she learns that Hell has become a city of huge porportions with streets, bars, and restaurants. Throw in an angel who is sorry he ever joined Lucifer to fight against God and now wants to make good. He has an army and with the help of the sister he is going to over throw Satan.But when you read it you will realize what horrible stuff this is. It is written on a fifth grade level. maybe it took me an hour to read this. An hour I wish I had back to do something else,like watching paint dry. I should have realized this book was going to be bad, when I realized this is the same guy who wrote the Big Head(see my review of that one).If you like this kind of thing stick with King and Barker."
+8649,1,Poor examples,"This book uses terrible examples to try and explain the concept of classes etc. For a dummies book, it's poorly written and I wouldn't expect it to appeal to beginners. Now sits on my bookshelf or doubles as a coaster for tea and coffee. Even worse the examples are almost the same as those from 'Learn Java Now' from the same author."
+8650,1,Over rated,"In my opinion a good aurthor works in two ways: what he writes, and how he writes it. Salvatore has good ideas but his style of writting is simply too childish. His characters are realistic until they get into battle, where they are able to kill twenty enemies a piece!! (completely over the top, even for fantasy.)"
+8651,1,I guess my cats are stupid!,"I thought for sure my youngest, Snowball, would really love this toy. She liked the box it came in more! The product mentions ""Smart Cat"" and both my cats, Snowball who is 2 and Sweetie Pie who is 6 were not at all curious about this toy. I don't consider them ""stupid"" either! I think if it came with authentic looking furry mice instead of the balls, they may have showed some interest. The balls that come with it are ok, but when I took them out to play with just the balls, my cats weren't interested in them either! Now I'm out $30.00! Maybe someday I will have a friend who has a kitten (I think a kitten would find this toy fun) and I can give it to them!"
+8652,2,Great fun for social skills groups in speech therapy.,"I bought this mold as recommended in a social skills curriculum (Michelle Garcia Winner, Superflex) I use with my social language groups. After making the jello brain I inserted social skils into the brain. The kids had to dig them out. They had a blast and then got to eat the brain afterward. Great fun."
+8653,2,A truly wonderful movie,"Please do not pay any serious attention to the Amazon editorial review above. The writer must have completely missed the filmic journey offered by this movie: its wonderful messages, unique presentation, and rich text and subtext. As a white, middle-class person, I found the film enchanting. Not only do we journey along with the grandson and grandfather, we are brought into a special way of filmmaking that thankfully deviates from standard Hollywood fare. This movie should be seen by all who have journeyed from adolescence to adulthood, as well as those just beginning their journeys. Please do not pass this film by. It is truly a treat. I don't know how this review will show my rating for this movie since the rating link wouldn't work for me, but I would give it the highest rating possible."
+8654,1,DJ CLUE (BOO),"DJ.CLUE has no clue of what is is doing. First off he is wack, no doubt about it, this is true. Second I think he could learn a thing or two from Tony Touch. He is real. I don't understand want the music world is going though right now but someone needs to get it together quick,fast and in a hurry because people can't keep listing to mess like this. If DJ Clue was in Iraq and he put out this kind of c.d he would have his hands cut off. To be honest he needs them to be cut off right now. Yes DJ Clue has made it into my wack list along with others."
+8655,2,Enriching,I read this to impress myself. I felt really smart after I read it.Do I remember any of it? No.
+8656,1,All stars equals one star,"Burt Reynolds was the biggest movie star in the world when (1980) he made CANNONBALL RUN. Did he appear in this bomb to test his fans' patience? Did he really think the script was humorous or exciting? Maybe the filmmakers spent so much time recruiting CANNONBALL RUN's all-star cast that they forgot to write jokes or develop any story. Except for Dom Deluise's very funny performance, the only laughs are at the paying audience's expense. Burt Reynolds redeemed himself with the appropriately titled STARTING OVER once the stench of CANNONBALL RUN died down."
+8657,1,already been done,"I believe this book covers themes that have already been done, and done better, in other books.It read like a book report. Save yourself the money."
+8658,1,You've got to be kidding?,"I can't believe Paramount has the you-know-what to release these two classics in their ""butchered"" versions again. What the hell is it with them already? Die hard Friday the 13th fans are ready to open their wallets for an ""uncut"" pressing of these films. What's the matter, Paramount? Are you not feeling well?If it weren't for the fact that they control Star Trek, I'd have boycotted them a long time ago.Thankfully, I own the PAL release of the first movie which was distributed by Warner. It's great. Go and get yourself a copy and while you're at it, get a multi-region player as well so you can watch the DVD.Let me go before I say something I'll regret."
+8659,1,"Some compellingly raw poetry, occasionally competent art.","This book is an interesting first effort (as far as I know it is O'Barr's first) that has it's moments, but overall I was unimpressed by this work. I think the main reason this work hits as hard as it does is not due to the skill of O'Barr (especially the art) but the raw emotion that assails you throughout. However, I don't feel this is due to the skill of the author (no disrepect to O'Barr) but the sheer power of his experience. After reading it the first time and dealing with the reality of the authors experience that inspired this work, I have to say the book really is not that well done. There is some nice poetry (although I'm sure Garth Ennis would not agree) but I feel the art is definitely sub-standard-although it has its moments. I can think of many other titles worthy of 5 stars."
+8660,2,A nice car seat-just vague installation directions,"This is a really nice car seat and my 8 month old seems to really like it. The installations were a little vague however. We use the latch system and the way the directions said how to install it, there was no way to get the seat tightly installed. I finally figured out on my own to thread the system through the seat, under the padding, which was not easy to do, but it was the only way to get the system tightenend. Other than that, it is a nice seat!"
+8661,2,Become a Social Magnet,"A good, brief book on how to deal with others. There are many examples of how to interact with people in ways that don't harm their ego. The final chapter is an action plan for the reader to fill out and follow up on, a great way to chart your success. Highly recommended."
+8662,1,"Looks like fun, but...","My dad bought the kit so I went home and built it and I thought it was cool because the legs moved and it had CHEWBACCA! But the legs only shuffled but did not lift up over things. So it did nt really walk. It's like a TIE fighter that looks good on the shelf, but does not play too well. It plays well with Ewoks and Snowspeedrs, but I would like this better if I had an AT-AT to go with it."
+8663,2,Very nice set!,"This toy was an instant hit. It comes with a lot of useful, fun pieces. It is a little big for carrying to the beach with everything else that you always want to take, but it is lightweight so a nice beach bag should take care of any problems."
+8664,1,Silverstone can't even keep this comedy afloat.,"This film has bad acting, bad plotting, and bad writing. The film was obviously made only to showcase Silverstone's charm so comically shown in ""Clueless"", but she, nor any other cast members, is not given enough to work with. Only gets 2 stars for a couple of funny (but not that funny) lines, and the fact that I loved ""Clueless""!"
+8665,2,Excellent job,I can write and babble on and on about this book but that'll be lost time. So I'll get to the limelight of my review:1 This book deserves SIX stars.2 What does Hermione has to do to get Ron's attention?P.S. One more to go
+8666,1,Fellowes 32057 Power Shredder,Motor on shredder overloads with more than 2 sheets of paper. Jams consistently.I have a concern that this will not function as advertised
+8667,2,Warm,"Does it's job, keeps me warm. I notice a slight scent when it starts (pretty normal for space heaters) no issues yet. *knocks on wood*"
+8668,2,A family tradition,"Having grown up using prayers from this book to start and bless important meals, I now pass the book on to friends. The book, coupled with a chalice to pass following the prayer selected, makes a great wedding or other celebratory gift. There are prayer rituals for practically every significant life event you can think of. Recently my husband and I reflected on the prayer in times of natural disaster following the Katrina hurricane. It's a great family tradition to use the Blessing Cup prayers."
+8669,2,This is a great album,"Song for song, this is one of the best albums I own. You cannot go wrong with this album. ""Turbo Lover"" is a powerful tune that captures the essence of sexuality better than any song I have ever heard. ""Reckless"" and ""Out in the Cold"" are also outstanding tunes. I wore the cassette out when I was a kid and the cd still finds its way to my player quite often nowadays."
+8670,1,They Tangle Together,These are designed horribly. The little lip things result in the hangers getting tangled with each other. So frustrating. I immediately got rid of them!
+8671,2,Cannie Shapiro is my hero!,"When I first picked up the book ""Good in Bed"", I was expecting it to be a book about someone's sex life, boy was I in for a shock! My sister (who is still in high school) bought ""Good in Bed"" because her librarian told her she would like it. I'm really glad she did too!Jennifer Weiner has a way of making every woman relate to Cannie Shapiro in some way. Whether it be the fact that she deals with her weight, her I could careless attitude, or her finally being able to find love in her life. One way or another, every woman who ever reads this book will connect and will be hooked until the end.I read this book in less than 12 hours because I just didn't want to put it down. It's amazing to follow Cannie on her adventure of life.Also, make sure you have some Kleenexes available towards the end."
+8672,2,Not a fools movie.,"This is a strongly evocative film. Closer is an adult themed movie with strong language, superb writing and achingly beautiful acting by Jude Law, Clive Owens, Natalie Portman and Julia Roberts.The movie moves seamlessly, touching the beginings and endings of the duplicitous and self-serving relationships that entangle the four main characters. The roots of the movie are the deep scars the characters take into their relationships, using themselves and their partners in very contemporary deceitful, duplicitous and self-rationalized ways. The characters are desperate and deft and truthful and dangerous.A movie that is not for the faint, but is truly rewarding."
+8673,1,Save your money...,"This book tries to cover topics in a very abstract way. You do not get a feel for the components that make up a VI project. It barely touches on Design Time Controls. It just tells the user what these things are, I could have found that out by looking at the help files of VI. I need some pratical examples of how to use these components, which this book has miserably failed to provide. There is no source code availble on their web site either like they say. I went there and their web site kept giving me errors. In short, if you are looking for help on building useful sites buy another book."
+8674,2,Great Workout,"This tape, first of all, is highly effective. I liked the fact that even though this is a beginner's tape, there are 2 different people you can follow: the actual instructor, whose workout is a little tougher, or another girl who is VERY beginner. The exercises were very simple to follow and I really felt like I was using all the key muscles the entire time. The best part for me was that time didn't drag. The workout feels like it's over in no time. But, I definitely felt it the next day and after just a few weeks of use, I can see results. I'd recommend this tape to anyone who is considering Pilates as a new workout option. It has good basics and gives you something to work up to, even just on the first tape."
+8675,1,MAKE THE BAD TOY STOP!!!!!!!!!,"I bought this for my daughter when she was five months old. It looked like fun but when we got it home she was not very interested in the toy itself, but preferred the base. She hit herself in the face a few times with it before I took it away and put it on the shelf. That's when the spookiness started. That night at three a.m. it went off by itself for several minutes, woke her up and creeped me out. That sort of thing continued to occur even after I'd butted it against the bookshelf and placed burp cloths in between to prevent motion. She rarely played with it and never more than a minute at a time. I agree, that toy is posessed, and NEEDS an off switch. It woke us all up dozens of times, wasn't played with enough to be worth the money or the mini heart attacks, and I strongly urge you not to buy it."
+8676,2,pedometer works well,seems to be hardy but only time will tell for sure. Accuracy is good --not too sensitive. Would give it a higher rating if I knew how well it will hold up but am happy with it so far. It has a cover that keeps bumps from resetting anything and the strap would be useful for running. It is easy to remove the strap if you don't need it. The reset button has a delay to be sure you really mean it --a very nice feature. THe unit opens conveniently to allow you to see the reading without taking off the unit.
+8677,2,GOOD OLD MURPHYS!!!!!,"This cd is AMAZING!!!!Everything about it is awsome.It might be a little different from their other work, but dont let that change your mind about this cd because it ROCKS!!!!!"
+8678,2,"A must have DVD, but where is the entire season??","As one of many huge fans of this show (why did they take this show off the air!??!!) I was thrilled to find the first season on DVD. The skits are great and the uncensored scenes are funny and interesting. The big flaw? The entire first season is not on the DVD!! Why not?? So many great skits and comments are left off this DVD. Hopefully, the makers of the DVD won't make the same mistake with season 2 when it finally comes out."
+8679,2,Allergen Free,"these cookies are great for people with multiple allergies. Pamela's cookies have eggs in them so I can't eat them. I love Enjoy Life foods, because I cannot eat gluten, eggs, soy and dairy....so I don't have many other options so I think these cookies are great so are the Snickerdoodles!!"
+8680,2,Mityvac,Ordered from Tool Topia. Quick shipping. Works great for my 98 Avalon. Remember to unscrew oil filler cap so a vacuum is not created. Easy to dump the oil from at local parts shop. Great product.
+8681,2,Kinddred,"I am not a seasoned reader, however, I liked this book so much that I feel the need to write about it. I usually steer clear of science-fiction novels, but Kindred is different in that it has to do with history; it was real at one time. It is about a African-American writer, Dana, who is forced to go back in time to save an ancestor in the pre-civil war south. Twists occur when her white husband travels back with her. She is forced to live a house slave's life; she is forced to think of whites as better than herself. It is interesting to watch how she goes from ""acting"" her part to really being accustomed to living as a servant. She does, however, hold on to some of her exisiting convictions. She is compelled to stand up for beliefs and well as others' well beings. There are many challenges that she has to face, and she conquers many them. Because of it, she becomes a better person."
+8682,1,"superficial, lacking scholarship, tedious and arbitrary","Any etymological information is scanty or assumed. This was a waste of my time, a waste of my money and a waste of my shelf space. After reading the belabored introduction and several pages of exemplary cliches, I couldn't pick the book up."
+8683,1,Just the facts..,"It seemed like a noble effort, but when the biographer loses track of his subject's age more than once, one tends to question the validity of other ""facts"" as well--especially when the usual ""credits"" for quotations and statements are lacking. We're never quite certain if a quote is from an honest, personal interview, or salvaged from some previously published work."
+8684,2,Much better than I dared hope,"I haven't read Dune in 10-15 years, but this prequel felt/read like the original to me. Dad would be proud."
+8685,1,Watch out for return policy!,"When I received this product I was disappointed that it was the smaller model, which, by the way, sells for as low as $45 on other sites. I did get free shipping when I ordered this item, however, when I tried to return it, their policy is to deduct the original shipping charge plus a 15% restocking fee from your refund. Therefore, my refund would only be $38, plus I had to pay to ship the item back! I decided to give the cart to a family member and buy the larger model when we got to the beach. Will never order from this vendor again."
+8686,1,Strictly Middlebrow Material,"The NPR plug belied this trite piece of feminist fluff. The premise is cute, but the book writes itself. The authors' tales are commonplace, and the insipidity of their stories is passed off as poignancy. This book is destined for the 5 cent pile in many a garage sale."
+8687,1,I didn't even finish reading it,"I figured it would only be fair to give this book one star since I didn't even finish reading half of it. I was so bored with the story and the stubborness of most of the characters that I just gave up. However, I went to the end of the book and read what happened (bad habit)...I was relieved I didn't waste my time finishing the novel b/c it didn't even end in the way I had hoped. I recommend any other of Ms. Rivers novels except for this one."
+8688,2,Well put together.,This is the first time I have purchased a cartoon set but it won't be the last. It's fun to just put this on and laugh for awhile.
+8689,1,an average pretend movie,"my God... i switched channels by mistake and i ended up watching the last 20-25 minutes of this movie -thankfully. this is The worst movie i have ever seen. a very bad pretend copy of ""beautiful thing"". there you got the sweet-looking guy, the streetwise guy, and the rest. believe me, i could've written a 10 times better plot for this movie. the dialogues are so so so not the lines you would've liked on a movie. okay, i do understand this is an ""alternative genre"" movie but that doesn't mean it has to be dumb. obviously, they wanted to make BT's american version with a weird twist, clearly, they screwed up baddddd. no two rocks hit the same spot (unless you're really good at it) so please, stop making copies out of somebody else's artwork."
+8690,1,"Slow, tireing and no ending",I loved Le Carre's early works and the he went down hill and this one hit bottom. I finished this book looking for at least ten more pages. I thought the printer left them out.
+8691,1,Never got a cord.,"I emailed the service company. They said they would look into it, but never got back to me.I'm still annoyed about the whole thing.I would like a replacement.Ma"
+8692,1,Just doesn't do much for me,"This album has found success at country radio, and also country CD charts, but limited critical success.It wasn't a rush job, so I tip my cowboy hat to him for that. But, as shown on Idol, Gracin just doesn't have too much to impress listeners with vocally.""I Want To Live"" - the lead of single - sounds like a generic country song. Like something you've heard before, and therefore he doesn't bring much originality to a country genre that, at times, is often dry on it's own."
+8693,1,Awful and bad for your baby,"This carrier dangles your baby from his/her crotch. Get an ergonomic carrier, like a Beco or Ergo where the baby actually sits. Don't let your baby dangle in a way you would never want to. If you don't believe me, sit on the arm of your couch on your crotch. That is what baby feels. We hated it. Also, kills the back. No support whatsoever and baby will outgrow it super fast. Also, facing out is wrong. Baby has nowhere to hide his face from the world or seek comfort from mom or dad. And they inevitably fall asleep with the head dangling. I don't know who designed this or why it is so popular but don't let the price and all the celebrities draw you to it. It really is an awful carrier once you've tried what a real baby carrier should be."
+8694,1,THIS IS REALLY BAD.. . BUY PEARL JAM'S GREATEST HITS INSTEAD,ATYCLB was commercial enough! but this?! Bono? what in the world is wrong with you?!buy Rearviewmirror from Pearl Jam instead.
+8695,2,Excellent quality with the design to match,"I bought this product (and the burp set) out of pure curiosity and I have to admit I was pleased to see it was beatiful and delicate item.The cotton is of excellent quality and it feels wonderful. Also, the packaging is great for sending the item as a gift.Definetely worth the money."
+8696,1,A brilliant mind borders on insanity!,"If anyone needs proof that a brilliant mind borders on insanity, he need look no further than Mulholland Drive. Being a fan of deep, complex plot driven films that take you on a twisting and turning adventure, I looked forward to the latest installment from David Lynch. However, this movie took me on a twisted trip that never ended. The movie was like two separate films in one...joined by a common cast but fragmented in every other way. Strong performances by the lead actresses did little to hide the weak plot that was thinly hidden amongst a barrage of twists and turns that aimed to keep you wondering what was going on so that you wouldn't realized that in actuality, nothing was going on. David Lynch's brilliant mind for movies has edged further from the realm of reality and close to insanity in this film. To make matters worse, the DVD did not feature chapter breaks, therefore making backing up to reexamine a scene a pain."

+8698,1,flop hulla hoop sound!,forget it! spice girls are not much better either than she is.the songs are poppy but without any inspiration. she cannot convince us how to play the instruments!
+8699,2,A pleasant surprise,"I expected nothing from this, given the dvd's cheap cover. It turned out to be a great performance by Lange and Jones, with her portraying a bipolar Army wife in the early 60s. The kids are great actors, too. Smart script. Nice pacing. Not too long. You can't go wrong."
+8700,2,civil was buff,+i love the civil war history from all sides and try every dvd out i can find. this one was excellent and had many ideas or concepts i had never thought of before.
+8701,2,Perhaps Toto's best,"This may well be Toto's best CD. After TotoIV there was a bit of a drought, but Fahrenheit was a great comeback. The CD is great beginning to end. This is the CD where they finally settled on Joseph Williams on vocals. Miles Davis makes a guest appearance. Jeff Porcaro is the best pop drummer in the world as usual. I'd love to pick a highlight but it is all good and it is sort of a matter of styles."
+8702,2,My favorite protein bar,"I haven't tried every one on the market, but this is the one I've landed on. It does not have peanuts in it (I'm allergic). It tastes pretty good. Wears your jaw out, since it's so chewy.The only issue I had was that the ones I ordered through Amazon felt grainy. The consistency was different than that of an individually bought one. The individual ones were better. But still, a quality bar whatever the graininess is!"
+8703,1,disappointeeeeeddddd !!!!!!,"Quite simple : want one was and still is great, in spite of the sometimes irritating vocal style of R.W.; but want 2 is simply tthe leftovers of the first with the bulk of the CD comoposed of overproduced, too long and simply boring songs. only the art teacher matches the first one. Don't buy !!!!"
+8704,1,what happened??,"What happened??? George's first two books were great, non-stop laughter...then there's this! I couldn't read on after 20 pages! I didn't find it offensive, trust me, i just didn't find it funny at all! Most of it just doesn't make any sense. I think the funniest part of the book is the title and the book cover, which are quite funny. SO how do I explain all of the good reviews here? Well, there's a little thing called the placebo effect when it comes to people who are fans of music, literature or any other type of art form. If one already likes a particular artist/musician/author from the their previous work which is genuinely good, then they expect/fell the need to like all future works by the artist. It would be sort of like a betrayal any other way. But please people, don't fall victim to the placebo effect with this book, it really is genuinely horrible. Sorry George, better luck nex time."
+8705,1,This guide is a complete waste of money,"On the up side it's got lots of pretty, out of focus pictures and it's 223 pages long. If you are worried about spoilers you won't find any here. It's just a straight walk through. With a few pages on the mini games an a few on game basics. It also has lists of items, not particularly helpfull. Also not helpfull is the amount space dedicated to the 108 stars. If you play the game you should have no problem finding at least 106 stars. Gau you have to stumble across in a random battle. Snow is really the only one you will have any difficulty finding. Do yourself a favor check online at gamefaqs. You will find better, more detailed walkthroughs that actually have the info you need for free. Don't waste your money here. If you are dead set on buying this waste of paper at least look at a hard copy first before putting down your money."
+8706,2,Quality Flag,Good quality marine flag for the money. Would purchase product again if I need another one in the future. Appears to be one that will last a while if taken care of.
+8707,1,RITES heavy on Melodrama,"Contrary to many, I found this film to be cloying and melodramatic. The plot and the writing often seem forced, and the performances occasionally border on the ridiculous. I found it to be a little hard to take seriously, but I know several viewers who found it to be utterly realistic. It is certainly gratifying to see an actor of Dean Stockwell's stature helping the genre of gay film to stretch its borders and its visibility, but this film was for me a mixed bag at best."
+8708,2,The Prequel to the Matrix-,"This has to be one of the best animes that i have ever seen. It looms in the shadows of more popular animes such as Akira and Golgo 13. The overall atmosphere of this movie seems as if the Matrix was based on it. Some of the similarities you will be able to identify right of the bat. The film also has a great plot line. One of most original ones in Japanese animation in the recent years. It doesn't follow where you have a male hero who makes love to a least one women during the film. The movie is one of the most groundbreaking and entertaining of all anime. The only reason it deserved four stars instead of five, was that it did not develop the characters as most would like it to."
+8709,1,Great for young people,"This book might be more appropriately filed under 'young readers'. First, it is a small book, hardly more than a paperback. Second, it does not go into any depth about Chinese houses, but gives more of a conversational style overview of culture and history. Illustrations are few and far between. There are no plans, elevations, or serious architectural drawings. Any seventh grader with a report due should be thrilled to find this book. Anyone else will be left wanting. How odd - it is an Oxford University publication."
+8710,1,4 dumb and shallow blondes,"I thought I was a fan of Candace Bushnells because of Sex and the City, but this book was a waste of time. Hopefully, women like those don't exist. It doesn't deserve a star or your money."
+8711,2,"Good for the price, but can't go very loud","I like it because it was cheaper than a lot of other products, but one thing I wish it had was a remote, and if I put the volume all the way up, there is some vibration. And it really can't go super loud, even though it's loud enough for me when I'm in the house, it's just not going to be shaking the house! I was considering sending it back when I realized this, but for the money, it seems good enough so I decided to keep it. I hope to find one that can be louder and have a remote though."
+8712,1,Buyer's Remorse!,"My daughter had seen this advertised on TV and it looked so cool to her. She insisted on getting it for a friend for her birthday, and I was so excited about getting it for her for Christmas. WHAT a disapointment! We recorded her password over and over, and she tried to open it over and over. It opened for her exactly once. I feel like pitching that toy through a window, and my daughter has abandoned it. How I wish I had the foresight to read these reviews before buying it. $25 dollars down the drain."
+8713,2,"Stop, challenge your thoughts and choose the best response!","One of the most important and compelling books I have ever read. You will learn a lot about yourself by taking this work as a study course. And, as you move through the pages, you will become excited again about doing something to improve your current situation, no matter where you find yourself. I strongly recomend this book to anybody who is dissatisfied with where they are in life. It could provide a launching pad for a new career or just a new way of approaching things that life brings about. Thanks Larry and Hersch for a new outlook. Now the ball is in my court."
+8714,2,Great product!!,"It works so well, like a mini colonic! Love. I would recommend this product to anyone doing a liver flush, or just simply trying to do a mini colonic in their own home."
+8715,1,Second unit failed too,My first clock worked great until an annoying buzzing began one night. The buzzing would go off and on waking me from sleep. I replaced the first one and was happy until six months later when it began buzzing again. I tossed it out.
+8716,2,"An outstanding, well researched book, that tells the truth!","Brian Mitchell has barely scratched the surface in this well written book that points out that gender integration comes at a cost: to the military and American society as a whole.The Defense Department will no doubt treat this fine book as pornography and go after folks who read it, but as particpant in several of the events he discusses I can tell you that Brian Mitchell has barely scratched the surface of the hypocsisy that is personnel policy today.Any currently serving member of the Armed Services would be happy to verify this, if they knew they would not be perscuted for it. However in the new Mcarthyism that passes for open discourse in our military today, disagreeing with the ""party line"" is not allowed.I only hope he keeps up his efforts because the word has to get out."
+8717,2,Excellent Resource,"I have heard from many sources that the NASB is the best translation of the original Greek, but have never studied Greek myself. This fascinating word-for-word translation is paired side-by-side with the NASB and the NIV for a very interesting study that can give new meaning to many familiar New Testament passages. Great for use in Bible studies, personal study, and classroom use, as well as following along with sermons and other messages.This would also be an excellent resource for anyone learning Greek, as each word has an individual English translation beneath it.I highly recommend this text."
+8718,2,Touch pad adjustment,"I've had the HP 4705 for about a week now. Very impressed with the screen clarity. Nice solid feel to the metal case. The touch pad was almost useless at first because it would jump to the left when you wanted to up, or it would jump to the right when you wanted to go down. Rather frustrating. However, in fooling with the settings, I found that you can reduce the sensitivity of the pad, and lo and behold, it works right now. :-) Guess it's sort of like how Windows 3.1 came with an impossible double click speed. (Microsoft finally got the double click speed set right in new versions of Windows.) Maybe HP will take a hint and have the touch pad default to a less sensitive setting in the future."
+8719,2,Comfy and work well!,"I used these last night for a ballet barre workout. They kept me from sliding on slippery carpet and kept my feet from cramping, which they do when they get cold."
+8720,2,Outstanding Product -- Tastes Great!,"I had been drinking Cytosport's premade, 11oz Muscle Milk (Chocolate Milk flavor), for months and I decided to give the Chocolate (NOT Chocolate Milk, like the bottled kind I had been drinking) a try. Well the Chocolate powder tastes even better than the premixed Chocolate Milk flavor. I've burned through a 2.47 bottle in about a week, drinking sometimes three glasses/servings a day. I use Muscle Milk as a meal replacement and/or snack, and it really satisfies me. Zero lactose means (for me) no gas (of course, I mix it with water, versus milk). I really cannot say enough about this product: the taste is delicious; it mixes up well (not really clumpy like some other protein mixes, but do stir it well); and I feel really good after drinking it (satisfied, and not bloated). In fact, I just purchased three more 2.47 lb bottles (2 Chocolate, and 1 Vanilla Creme -- which I have never tried before). I highly recommend it."
+8721,1,sizzled then fizzled,"A few years back, I read Morrison's ""Sula"" and gave it 5 stars, I loved the intimate nature of her poetic writing in that particular book. I've tried reading other books by her, but gave up out of confusion or boredom. ""Love"" the audiobook read by the author was very confusing to this reader, but at the same time very interesting. I just let her read on in her laid back intimate style in what seemed to be random thoughts and at other times provacative dialogue between characters. Slowly I started to grasp who all these characters were to each other and was really enjoying the book. However the last few parts were even more confusing and I'm not really sure what happened in the end, I was just glad it was over.Maybe just not my style of reading entertainment. A lot of sex, sleaze and sleazy characters. Her use of imagery is great. A lot of the characters dialogue is truly riveting. The storyline just fizzled nowhere for me."
+8722,1,doesnt work,"got it all set up, plugged it in and turned the switch, and it only ran for about 3 seconds then shut off and will not come back on, gfi is fully red, and checked a few different plugs and it just wont work."
+8723,2,"No Mess, No Fuss","I use this with my B&D Brew 'n Go, and it is fantastic for it's ease of cleaning. The coffeemaker I use doesn't require a filter, but with these little guys there isn't that mess in the filter. I definitely recommend this product for you."
+8724,1,racist pulp journalism,"Racist and anti-abolitionist diatribes ruin what could have been an excellent story. The writing is quick-paced, and reads like Tom Clancy,(for good or ill) particularly with his ability to weave several plot threads together and build them towards the inevitable climax at Harper's Ferry. I'm trying to learn more about the secret six, but all this book did was point out how history has been rewritten by the losers - the confederates. Slavery was the fault of John Brown and the people of Boston? I don't think so."
+8725,2,"Hilarious, from a certain point of view","If you have any retail background or sales experience and can handle the overt bigotry and foul language, watch this movie. I can't remember the last time I laughed so strongly watching something. It's audacious, but that's a big part of its charm. How did I come upon this film? My sales manager let me borrow it. It's just that tuned into what the car business feels like at times - but, of course, is nowhere near an accurate representation of current practices... I hope."
+8726,2,"Unchained is ""unmatched"" in excellence!!","Although I'm not a big fan of country music, this eclectic collection crosses all types of music and catches Johnny at what may be considered his artistic peak! It's addictive! With background from Tom Petty, this is a CD that shines a completely different light on Johnny's range. From the rockabilly ""Green Eyed Cat"" and ""Country Boy"" to the poignant ""Will I Meet You in Heaven Someday"", Johnny's voice is at its best, almost mesmorizing at times. ""Rowboat"" written by Beck is a little bit off the wall and gives an added twist to the collection. Johnny seems to be having a blast and it comes through the music and pulls you in! You don't have to be country to enjoy this. Don't be surprised if after you've heard this CD, you want to run out and buy more stuff by Johnny Cash. He bares his soul to you and you'll just drink it in and want more!!"
+8727,2,Nice!,Would purchase again. Nice quality! Beautiful Cranberry color! This tablecloth was just what I wanted. Elegant and easy to care for in the wash. You cannot go wrong with this product!
+8728,1,"False advertising, not what title says.",This is a headphone jack to usb cable. Not what it says. Not even made by apple.
+8729,2,I REALLY ENJOYED THIS BOOK!!!!,"I really liked this book. It was very exciting. Once I started reading it, I couldn't put it down. Hildy tries to make everything just right. It had a really good setting, (since I live in the Ozarks). It was a story about faith, and trust in God."
+8730,2,kingston memory,"works fine with my HP printer ,before the printer always show a request for more memory after printing only one picture."
+8731,2,"Gorgeous photography, engaging, straight forward text.","For those of us who live in the western states, this book is an invaluable rescource. Ms. Sprenger offers great advice on learning how to cope with poor soil conditions (such as sand and clay), how to acheive a lushly planted look by relying on hearty (yet beautiful) native plants that won't let you down when the going gets tough, and absolutely wonderful planting designs and combinations. Her style is engaging and entertaining to read, as well as forthright and full of plenty of personal anecdotes and tidbits. Her photogrophy alone is worth the price of the book. Even if you don't live with poor soil, nasty weather and a stunted growing season, there's much to learn here. A great book, one of my favorites! A destined 'green' classic."
+8732,1,not good,"My daughter got tired of this book while reading it. If you're looking for a book about a chocolate factory, then this is it. If however you're looking for a fun book about a mischievous monkey, then this is not it."
+8733,1,Poor Me,"Hated it! Save your money and read A Child Called It. That's a book that covers abuse, if you're looking for abuse books. This book is attempting to shock with stories of how the author's brother urinates in his mouth, how he later has sexual relations with his sisters and brothers and then struggles with his own sexual identity. He later tells what a horrible husband and father he has become and then dedicates the book to his son as if that will cure the damage he has done. The authors trying to ride the coat tails of poor Elizabeth Smart and barely mentions anything about the abduction or Wanda Barzee. There are about 3 pages total about this and the rest of the book cover the author's life in boring detail. Seriously, there are much better books to read. If you want a good laugh, look at the author's own review of his book - funny how he tries to convince you that he's try to help anyone. How? My advice is to seek therapy and not by writing a book."
+8734,1,Shipping Charges,i thought it was lame that i got charged for shipping and handling for two items from the same seller. And i beleive its extra lame when the seller obviously took advantage of the situation and sent the two items together in one cd case. Are you that hard up for two dollars?
+8735,2,Best Ever!,This is the best slow cooking cookbook I've ever had. All the recipies are great and crowd pleasers! If you love southwest food and want to be introduced to new ways of cooking...buy this! I am a huge fan!
+8736,1,A major dissapointment.,"This is the first John Bayley book I have read. After the many wonderful things I have heard about this book and this author, I was so disappointed. I finished the book, but it was hard. I thought the storyline was disjointed (and unbelieveable) and hard to follow. There's not even a single section or paragraph to this book that I can think back on and say, ""Well, that part was okay."" The second part was even more disappointing than the first."
+8737,1,Boring beyond belief,I pushed myself to finish this book and I couldn't believe that no matter how hard I pushed further along it never got better. As I finished the last paragraph of the book I was so disappointed at how terrible the story was. I am a John Grishim fan and I have read all his books and I knew this story was going to be something different for him but I never thought the book would be as boring as it turned out. I hope they don't make school children read this novel or they may give up reading all together.
+8738,1,poorly executed text,"This textbook is a mess. It is not elegant or clear, and their coverage of certain topics is confusing and deviates from standard practice.

+8743,2,The only WW II Tank Sim Worth Owning,"First off. This is a Simulation, not an Arcade Shoot-em-up. If you just jump into this game and expect to survive, forget it. The AI is pretty tough and keeping your platoon alive is something you're going to have to work hard at. If you want to feel what it was like to be a Tanker during World War II, then this is the game for you. Wing Simulations, the publisher, has a customer service website that is unsurpassed by any company marketing games today. The game has 80 missions (40 per side) and can be played as single scenarios or as linked campaigns. A really engrossing game."
+8744,1,My dog won't play with it......,"I did everything I knew how to get our 9yr old pooch to play with this, but Buddy would have none of it. They smelled like old tires, and left a rubber smell on my hands. I washed them over and over, and even when treats were put inside of them, once the treats were out, Buddy was done with the toy...back to his worn tennis balls.To make matters worse, the toys looked so cute I got two of them, different styles. Now there are 2, rubber-smelling dog toys in Buddy's box that he'll have nothing to do with. :-("
+8745,2,The best in the series.,"This was the best book in the ""vampire"" series. It was well thought out and well written. It's slow at parts, but quickly picks up. It's very good."

+8747,1,Pretty Bad,"Made the mistake of buying this game the other day without reading reviews.I have NBA Live 06 and I really enjoy playing that game. I assumed Live 07 would be similar with better graphics. It is not. Difficult to control players. Hard to follow whats happening, hard to follow which player you are controlling. Your teammates play no defence. The dunks are weird - they happen VERY quickly, hard to put yourself infront of a player defensively when he's attacking the basket...the game is just off!I could go on but in summary, DONT BUY THIS GAME.Update:Just returned this game. Hopefully 2k7 will live up to its reviews..."

+8755,2,Love it...,I love this DVD... This is what Tenacious D is all about. Gotta love it...or be very disturbed by it.
+8756,1,boring,"The Diamond Cutter: page after page- the same boring stuff. It is more about ""greed"" rather than being on a buddhist path."
+8757,1,Hair erupts from my nose like lava from Mt Vesuvius...,"...and I have the pain threshold of the princess from the princess and the pea story, these devices should be designed with me in mind.When brand new this thing worked like gangbusters, however the razor sharp blades dulled quickly leaving me crying like a baby.Perhaps if the hair that sprouts from your nose is fine this tool will suffice, I'm still searching for the groomer that will be gentle to me yet viciously mow down stray hairs."
+8758,2,My daughter loves it!,"My daughter received this toy as her first birthday prensent from her grandparents. She started to play with it from age of 15 months. She loves it! She can sit and spin by herself now (18 months) and when we have her friends come over to our home, other kids also likes to play with it. I guess kids likes to spin and spin!"
+8759,1,15 minutes of uncensored fun,"I was expecting more than the short ""add-on"" of the goofs, flubs, dirty words, etc. It would have been more interesting to see the entire episodes with the censored or bleeped parts still in. I was disappointed that there was so little! The DVD is ok as far as it goes, it just does not go far enough! You get the ""aired"" versions of the episodes and then a ""gag reel"" of the goofs."
+8760,2,Their punkest years.....,"........some people get mad of them cuz they're christians or something...and yeah they became quite preppie with the ever passing moment but Fu...Th...Sh..!this album compilates their greatest punk,emo and hardcore moments....yeah tons of songs..and old school rare demos support this nice album....I love NOFX and Rancid and all those bands....but these guys are somehow different from them..........but they're good too.......you should buy some of their other records too....including an ep that they did for Fat Wreck Chords"
+8761,1,No Wall Street Journal access with Kindle Fire?,"Apparently my current Wall Street Journal subscription with my Kindle 2 does not migrate to my newly purchased Kindle Fire which I received approximately one hour ago at my door. While I love the Fire so far, not having access to the Wall Street Journal is very disappointing. Hopefully they will configure it for the Fire soon."
+8762,2,Good product,Purchased these to use in outdoor pet beds. I was very surprised by how well these blankets work to reflect heat back.
+8763,2,Best book on Flyfishing in Argentina ever written,"Despite having fished in Patagonia for 20 years, I learned more with this book than with all the local (argentine) literature. Essential guide for anybody going to Patagonia for the first time. The history of how trouts were introduced in Argentina is fascinating. Having fished the Malleo, Chimehuin and other fabled rivers myself I think the books reccomendations are dead on. The author should update some of the info."
+8764,2,The Mighty Crain,"Arguably the best album from one of the best indie bands to come out of Louisville. Powerful and innovative. Also check out the Speed LP, if you're lucky enough to locate it."
+8765,2,Once in 5000 Years,"Cunfucian scholars have been long unfair to Wu Tse-T'Ien. For hundreds of years her rise to the throne of the Middle Kingdom has been read with shame, regret and loss of face that a woman could have reigned over the Golden Age of the most developed civilisation on earth.However, far from using her female devices to influence the Emperor and other men of power, she used tact, intuition, and her skills as an orator and politician to proclaim her own dynasty and inspire millions.Rising from an obscure birth, spending time in a nunnery, and with a personality both brutal and cruel as well as generous and endearing, her life, as revealed in Wu Tse-T'Ien and the Politics of Legitimation in T'Ang China (Studies on East Asia, Vol 11) is always fascinating."
+8766,1,Too much like candy,"These dried strawberries do taste good - indeed, they're addictive. When I eat one, I usually end up eating several more. But they're too sweet. The sugary taste and texture of this brand of dried strawberries makes me feel like I'm eating candied strawberries. This wasn't what I expected from the description. I should have paid more attention to the other review that complains of over-sweetening. Don't buy these, unless you want to eat strawberry candy; buy another brand which lets you enjoy the natural strawberry flavor and texture more."
+8767,2,Inspiring Read!!!!,"Debra A Warren's, Pausing To Catch My Breath is a fabulous read!As I perused each poem, I felt like I knew her family members and that I was one of the priviledged few who got a glimpse into her private diary of life. Her words captivate and encircle your heart and mind with each line of text. Debra's book is more than her poetry, it's her world and I am proud that I had the distinct honor of reading and critiquing such profound work. It's a must read for anyone who loves poetry and can appreciate life's lessons.Terri Ann ArmstrongAuthor of My Soul Has Spoken"
+8768,2,Husband loves.,Bought for a gift and my husband loves this movie. It is great that gives you an option of digital copy so you can watch it on ipad or computer when traveling.
+8769,2,shopping experience,Hello is excellent given the Serbian and products arrived on time and without irregularidad.Deja skin soft and is basically painless. Thank you for your services I recommend.
+8770,1,NOT what I ordered,"I ordered 2 packages of 10 ""emergency mylar thermal blankets"". When I got the package, there were 2 individual mylar blankets... not 2 orders of 10."
+8771,2,Great show,I thought this was a funny show. Perry was fantastic and ROman on the show is also a great character. Overall I thought it was fantastic but in this day and age of declining sitcoms and increasing numbers of reality television shows this show was a gem. I am glad this dvd set came out.
+8772,1,Not thrilled,"I felt that as much as Joan said she disliked whining, she whined. If I had lost someone hoping to find some uplifting revelation, this isn't the book. No magic here."
+8773,1,Save your money,"This book just didn't work for me. The writing was appalling, a style non-existent, and the main character Sookie was simply obnoxious. In such a small town, every guy, and I mean EVERY guy, thinks she's a catch, good-looking, sexy, adorable. A woman, no matter how much she looks like a supermodel, will not get every guy. What else bothered me was the Sookie's focus on herself. Yes, she found herself incredibly sexy. Yes, she found her body utterly to die for. Yes, the writer kept reminding the reader how great Sookie is.This is one book I felt like tossing in the trash. Did so as soon as I read the last page. It really was that bad."
+8774,2,Helen's finest,"Simply put, Miss Forrest was in her musical prime here, backed by an amazing jazz trio featuring legendary pianist hank Jones. Fine performances and Helen sounds 30 years younger then she was on these exciting and creative performances. it isd refreshing to hear her sing these songs without the overbearing annoying big bands, and the sappy strings, just Helen her emotion filled voiuce and piano, bass and drums. AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!"
+8775,2,Good preseason review material,"I picked up this DVD about 3 yrs ago to get a few new drills to run during practice. I take time before each season to review the drills and allow the coaching staff to get on the same page. It helps alot when your working through those first few weeks of conditioning, etc. It's not very long, but the drills are demonstrated by kids which helps. With younger teams, some drills may work better than others or need slight adjustments. All and all, not a bad investment for any coach. I think the DVD should be priced around $20, but that's just my opinion."
+8776,1,SLEEP AROUND TO MAKE IT IT'S WHAT YOUR GOOD AT,I REALLY DIDN'T LIKE HER AT FIRST CAUSE I THOUGHT SHE WAS TRYING TO BE LIKE MY GIRL MARIAH . BUT SHE WASN'T I RESPECTED HER FOR GETTING MARRIED AND FELT BAD WHEN HER HUSBAND LEFT HER.BUT NOW I AM UPSET SHE USES HER BODY TO GET HER BY IN LIFE AND THAT WILL NEVER TURLY GET YOU ANY WHERE .I THINK SHE IS THE CAUSE OF PUFFY'S BREAKUP WITH HIS LATEST BABY'S MOTHER HE HAS 2 CHILDEREN AND HE NEEDS TO GET BACK ON THE WRITE TRACK.

+8777,2,Quick Read Good Content,"Good to Great is a quick read, and it offers many interesting twists on common problems with good companies. The book provides some good ideas to start a company on a new path toward excellence."
+8778,2,So great!,"I am a college student and, as such, spend a lot of time watching my favorite movies, but have very little room (or money) to have too many films. This box set is definitely affordable and fits perfectly on my bookshelf. The only problem I have is the lack of special features, but I can deal with that in exchange for the great product."
+8779,2,Get the real information on health and weight loss.,"Dr. Markham has written a very concise and informative book that should be very valuable to anyone seeking better overall health, more energy, and weight loss. His writing is conversational, understandable, and to the point. As a college professor, I especially appreciate the way he summarizes the latest research and presents it in a clear and convincing manner. If you're tired of all the over-hyped, unscientific, and self-enriching health and weight-loss programs out there, you'll be glad to read this thoughtful book by a caring professional."
+8780,2,Already a classic,"One of THE definitive reference works for everyone even remotely interested in the cultures of ancient Mesoamerica, ""Gods and Symbols"" well comprises the most important as well as more specialized facts, covering all its subjects from Olmec to Aztec times in the same amount of detail. It's written to be accessible to both beginners and people more firm with the subjects, and certainly offers more than enough for both groups. However, although the cross-references are fine, the encyclopaedic, culture-jumping approach makes for a somewhat fractured read, and the sheer amount of information can prove overwhelming at times; it therefore could be useful to have some background knowledge beforehand that can help you place facts in a larger contextual framework when you need to. However, this hardly is a reason for criticism given the book's intent, and it doesn't stop it from being a highly readable standard work I can unhesitatingly recommend to just about anyone."
+8781,1,thin coffee,"This book is better than nothing but has no real depth. It lacks any real financal information or planning guidelines. In the era of the web there are almost no sites or addresses listed.This is just a walk in the park where it must have been written. If you are serious, look elsewhere."
+8782,1,Mirrorball,"After buying the Mirrorball CD and being totally impressed, and as Sarah has not done a concert tour of Australia, I was really looking forward to this DVD. Sadly I was bitterly dissapointed. The audio leaves a lot to be desired, and is obviously *not* the same live tracks as presented on the CD. The audio is noticeably out of sync to the video in every song, in fact some of the tracks don't even sound live, its like they took the studio CD sound and added it to the video.Dissapointed."
+8783,1,Find another edition!,"The Anne books are some of the best books ever written, and every generation since publication has read, enjoyed and found something timeless and relevant in them.But send a clear message to the publisher of this edition: DO NOT BUY.I'd be cool with a updated cover, don't get me wrong. The books I read as a child have covers that mark them clearly as a product of the '70s and '80s, like me.However, this cover is beyond comprehension! Thoughtless and crass."
+8784,2,The Life - One of the Best Musicals Ever,"""The Life' is one of the best musicals ever. I was lucky enough to see it on Broadway. Why it didn't go on the road, and still isn't on the road is beyond me. I waited for it to come to San Francisco so I could take my friends but it never came. It played 466 times on Broadway. The music and story is incredible. I listen to it again and again on CD. Buy it if you like musicals. Amen!"
+8785,1,Don't bother,"If this book was $5.00, then maybe. Most of the book is just fluff that isn't about playing the guitar."
+8786,1,not that great,"Listened to this album a few times and can honestly say that it's not that impressive.Many are catergorizing this in the same league as Portishead and Macy Gray but I can't see the similarities in the quality of music or in the voice.If one of these artists or any other top selling soul or R n B artists for that matter put this Cd out, music critics would call it sub standard and unoriginal.It's all a bit too predictable from beginning to end, no surprises and it all starts sounding too much of the same thing when it's all over.I feel her voice is decent, but doesn't strike me as a strong, true soulful voice. The accent is too disracting at times as well.There are worse albums out there, but all I can say is if you want original sounding soul without the predictability, (yawn)stick with Badu, Jill Scott or Joss Stone."
+8787,2,I found a replacement that works for this item,"If you are looking for the krups replacement carafe, you won't find one. I've looked everywhere. The Mr. Coffee 4/5 cup replacement carafe that looks similar to this works in the Krups Cafe Express. It is a little tight, but it does work. Our first 4 cup krups coffee maker lasted over 14 years with high usage. Our second krups 4 cup coffee maker has been going strong for 8.5 years. I hope krups comes out with another 4 cup coffee maker. I don't know what we will use when our current krups gives out."
+8788,2,Another Very Good if not excellent book...,I love Bob Greene's books...this is one of the earliest...if not the earliest of his compilations of articles...not all the subjects of the chapters interest me...but it is a very good book...
+8789,1,important to read critically,"Mr. Bennett's concern about the president's moral decay is hypocritical--he is simply a point man for the Republicans. He harks back to Watergate, but conveniently forgets Reagan's, Bush's and the Republican Party's perversion of the 1980 election process through the infamous ""October Surprise"". His writing style, also, does not quite ring true to me; he seems to be imitating a style that he believes would impress a plainer-writng people who think academic writing means intelligence. ""Coin of the realm""--how bombastic!"
+8790,1,Funnier Than a Three Stooges Video!,"As President of Tekton Apologetics Ministries I've had a lot of practice taking Earl to task, and he prefers to respond with harrumphs and grunts and arguments that dig him even deeper in his hole. All of the arguments in this book are derived from his earlier book, The Jesus Puzzle, so if you already have that you won't miss anything. Doherty's attempt to refute Strobel is no more than a case of Doherty trying to milk the cash cow that Strobel's works have become.Doherty fancies himself an expert, but has bitten off way more than he can chew. He is behind the eight-ball of scholarly consensus on every point -- and I speak here of secular as well as religious scholarship.Me? I read it for amusement."
+8791,1,Terrible Misrepresentation of Science,"Show this book to any other molecular biologist, and they will find it laughable. They will easily be able to point out the many distortions and manipulations of science throughout the book.The author presents himself as having great insight into human biology when in reality, he's just taking credit for well known, scientific discoveries and then twisting them to fit his theories.Sadly, this book does very little to add to the knowledge and understanding of the mind body connection. For more information on this subject I would recommend authors like Andrew Weil or Daniel Amen.In my opinion, authors like this one only deter from our having a better understanding of the effect that biology and psychology have on each other."
+8792,1,I totally disagree with the point of author,"I totally disagree with the point of author, the book is the most bad book i ever read. i think maybe the author is a Jap"
+8793,1,Injurious misinformation,"The author is not a practitioner of scientific method, but rather erects a construct to meet his own flawed expectations. This is an assemblage of misconception packaged in a pulp fiction-like, immature construct. It regresses enlightened thinking. For a factual and humanist treatise, consider ""True Selves,"" by Mildred Brown."
+8794,2,**********SNOOP DOGG AT HIS BEST!!!**************,"I PICCED UP THIS ALBUM THE DAY IT CAME OUT AND I MUST SAY I WAS NOT DISAPPOINTED AT ALL. THIS IS THE SNOOP DOGG I MISS, HITTIN U UP WITH THAT REAL GANGSTA SHHH!!!!!!!! THE SONG ""KEEP IT REAL"" TO ME IS THE BEST TRACC ON THERE ALONG WITH ""EASTSIDE"". THIS CD IS DEFINENTLY A CLASSIC. IF YOU HAVE NOT PICCED UP, GET IT!!! I LIKED HIM MORE WITH DEATH ROW AND THIS WAS WORTH MY MONEY!! THATS REAL. THE ALBUM FEATURES: DAZ DILLINGER, KURUPT,NATE DOGG, THREAT,THE TWINZ,WARREN G,DR DRE,MACK 10,TECHNIEC,TRAY DEE,BAD AZZ,SWOOP G,SOOPAFLY,AND BIGG PIMPIN. HOLLA AT THE SH**."
+8795,1,Defective,"I opened the package, stretched it once, and the inner bungee cord immediately pulled away from the stitching on one side rendering it useless."
+8796,2,exceeded all expectations,"I decided to try these because of the amazingly inexpensive price and the good reviews. Never the less, I feared it would ruin my printer, as it was not approved Brother cartridge, or at best, give messy or poor results. I'm delighted to be wrong. Quality, ease of use, everything exceeded all expectations. I'll never waste money on name brands ink again.NB I've not yet tried it on photo paper."
+8797,1,Disappointed in toaster function,"We use this primarily for toasting, and the toaster tray does not extend deep enough into the unit. Top of the bread does not get toasted. Looking thru the window it appears the tray physically could drop down another inch or so, but the mechanism won't allow. Also, there is no cancel function. If you need to stop the toasting process you have to force the toaster handle up."
+8798,1,Mostly Filler,This is supposed to be an introduction for kids to Peter and the Wolf. Both Peter and the Wolf are overwhelmed by rhe padding needed to make this into a 45 minute DVD. Elmo and his friends trample the story to sell the disc.
+8799,2,Exactly What I Needed,"I mounted the winch in a permenant position and use it with a series of pulleys to raise my canoe to the rafters in the garage(the canoe is designed for hunting and is extra wide ---- it weighs around 120 lbs.). Once the canoe is in position I secure it with a couple of ratchet straps, which take the weight off of the winch.The manufacturer states that the winch should not be used as a ""lifting device"", but at 120 lbs. the risks are minimal and the winch performs very well."
+8800,1,Bad and sad,"I must say I didn't even bother listening to this album and I won't even buy it, cause I think Mariah is just getting worse and worse. With such a wonderful voice she could have made such great music instead of those pretentious, rap-overloaded, unmelodious songs. Since she got into that hip-hop, r&b kind of music her songs tend more and more to be like a excuse for her to display her 'singing technique' instead of really singing. I've been a fan of her early singing years and I think those were the best. And even when she appears on any show she looks like a stupid dumb, ungraceful doll. It's a real shame cause this girl has an incredible voice but truly used in the wrong way."
+8801,2,"Happy to have a full set, but","I don't think this was listed as being an ex-library copy. It still has stickers on it and bits have been cut away on the inside cover boards where the plastic book jacket probably was stuck on. I realize it's a hard-to-find volume and I probably would have still bought it, but I would have appreciated knowing all of the details about its condition ahead of time."
+8802,2,Great Casting!,"Maybe not a blockbuster hit, but this movie is quite entertaining and easy to watch. The casting was perfect for this light comedy. It shows the airline industry in its glamour days, which is a bit refreshing."
+8803,1,horrible CD.,"This CD sucks! I loved their first album. Don't waste your money on this one. Only 1 good song. The rest are like 3rd rate recordings, I can do better on my own at home.. It's honestly pathetic....."
+8804,2,an effective reaction,"This book is written in reaction to the tendency of neo-scholastic thinkers to neglect the role of the figure of Christ in the thought of Albert the Great, Thomas Aquinas, and other Dominican thinkers. To redress this imbalance, Emery and Wawrykow have done an excellent job of compiling essays to address the long-neglected depictions of Christ in the writings and art of the medieval Dominicans through a multidisciplinary approach."
+8805,2,a must HAVE,this is a MUST HAVE book .... great to refer to as you plow through Mongolian Travel and Adventure Books..... I'm thrilled to own it! Glad it was 'finally' published!
+8806,1,Palm V,The shipping and receiving of the Palm was adequate. However the back light didn't function. I e mailed the seller about the problem but never received a reply.
+8807,2,Mixfit Mindz Is off the Chain!!,The essence of this album is unbelieveable! KaZual's vocals are sweet harmony and the beats just make you wanna get up and dance. I Love It and I bought It! You should try it too.
+8808,1,Minus 5 Stars,"This show is only funny for infants or people suffering from severe brain damage.The fact that it has the name MAD on it means nothing. MAD TV at least had a FEW good bits to it, however this show seems to be ""written"" by former SNL writers who were fired because the sketches they came up with bombed.The ""comedy"" is so puerile, it makes the jokes on the side of a Happy Meal box look complex.This show wants to pass off as being for children, and I agree. That is if Sesame Street is too advanced for your child.Scratch that, I don't think this diarrhea of a show is worthy to be viewed by anyone, living or dead...although I'm sure that if you did sit a dead person down to watch this show, it would bring them back to life just long enough to switch the TV off."
+8809,2,Life doesn't always go as we want. This might help.,"Life does not always go as we want... as we had hoped... dreamt... prayed.This book was written to help people coming out of relationships that were brought to an end... by choice... by accident... by illness... by betrayal by the other... by whatever reason.Regardless, at some certain point, reality has to be accepted, and you need to move on. You can only suffer for so long.This book is both a crutch and a companion. It can be a guide. It is certainly worth the read."
+8810,2,Good VHF Radio,Flush install into Boston Whaler Dauntless Console. They only show the front but expect a lot of heat-sink when it arrives. Flush mounting with additional kit. Seems like a lot of features. I'd recommend this unit. large face. No nise or chatter to complain abut.
+8811,1,The MLB Got This One Right,"A foul-mouthed, salacious, well-cast, occasionally entertaining, slice-of-life look at some Chicago Cub (Bruins) fans. Although the ensemble acting is effective and the movie has some satisfying moments, the merits don't outweigh the liabilities for me. I would love to be a bleacher bum at Wrigley Field, but if I sat anywhere near this set of fans, it would diminish my enjoyment. These are the Bleacher Barbarians, and the movie's treatment of a mentally unbalanced fan and his menacing of a player is disturbing. I would love to watch a game with the two old guys in the scoreboard, but they are only in the film for a few moments. In short, the movie doesn't have enough to redeem its winking at antisocial behavior, including compulsive gambling, and the MLB was wise to withhold its approval. I would love to watch the Cubs, but the Bruins not so much."
+8812,1,Not very enlightening,"This book is set up like a dictionary. However, most of the interpretions are rather vague, or way out in left field, having little to do with what was in my dreams. As a random example:Buzzer: You can look forward to a happily stepped-up socail life if you heard the sound of a buzzer in your dream.There are other dream interprations books I have found to be much more accurate and useful."
+8813,1,low quality,I can't believe that this piece of furniture costs what it does. It is definitely not worth the price. It seems cheaply made and lots of the pieces I received had paint missing or damaged sides. They should definitely consider better shipping materials. I would never buy this brand again!
+8814,1,Not Happy!!!!!,This book is horrible it only good if your not a first time learner the the cd really sucks it doesnt even talk to you to help you sound out the words I wasted my money next time ill just buy it at school. The seller didnt even but a picture on the page nor the edition so in general I got the wrong book and cant get my money back.... Im going to a different website amazon lost my trust..... :-(
+8815,2,Beautiful People: The Greatest Hits of Melanie,This is an excellent CD. I had forgotten how much I enjoyed her music during my young adult life. I would highly recommend this album to Boomers and those who wish to get 'a dose' of good music from forty years ( ugh ) ago.
+8816,2,priceless,"I used this for two infants so far and deem the information accurate and priceless, though I believe everyone should pick and choose what they will apply based on their own lives. Great principles in this book."
+8817,2,awesome,"The title is not lying. So many soups! No pictures though, and that's a little disappointing (but this whole series lacks pictures so...not unexpected.) Very handy go-to soup book."
+8818,1,Crunchies? Not quite.,"I am normally a huge fan of all-natural, healthy, and organic snack foods such as this one. However, the product is not what it says it is. These strawberries are not crunchy, but rather chewy. For me, they did not have a desirable texture. It seems that one of two things may have happened here; either not all water was removed during the freeze-drying process or somehow air (and moisture) got into the package, taking away from the product's crunch. Also buyer beware, because these packages are only 1 ounce, not 1.5 as the picture and product description state."
+8819,2,"The new millenium's ""Joy of Sex""; very frank,humorous,honest","The second edition almost doubles the size of the first, incorporating many personal comments from readers, contributors, etc. Though some of the artwork could be considered ""goofy/humorous"", some may consider it erotic. Many of the techniques are right on, and some may lead to many an erotic adventure. Always couched in medically sound cautions, this book will open new horizons for either gender of any persuasion. Beware, it is absolutely frank and blunt, but that's what you want! I prefer the first edition as it is easier to read, but all the information is included in the second. --Future editions will contain ongoing feedback and comments submitted by readers via the web page set up by Goofy Foot Press. Highly recommended! --Could be a great Valentines Day gift for lovers, or future lovers. -- Be prepared to spend many a night curled up with this one!"
+8820,2,CRYSTAL!,This book once again earns five stars!This book is so awesome because Marvin is going to Casey's house!That's so weird.Casey invited him over to look at something.(And I thought he hated her.)At the end something REALLY weird happens.SO READ IT AND FIND OUT!!
+8821,2,This is what Horror fiction should be...Always,"I had never heard of Dan Simmons, but I read a synopsis of this novel and thought that it sounded pretty cool. Not only was it cool, but I rank it up there with the best horror fiction that I've ever read, including ""IT"" and ""The Stand"" and ""The Hellbound Heart"" by the two masters of horror Stephen King and Clive Barker. Simmons has crafted a unique tale set in the sixties, not only about an unearthly horror found in a small school building, but also the bonds found between six young boys. Awesome characters, awesome setting, awesome plot, awesome prose. I will continue to read Dan Simmons. Hope you out there check him out as well."
+8822,1,Very disappointing product!,"First, the enclosed battery was dead, and as it was a special type, I had to run all over looking for a replacement. Then, the product still would not work! Could not return this piece of junk fast enough! Amazon was awesome! Credited my account Immediately, even before they received the product back! Save your money. I would advise buying this item locally."
+8823,1,He is better than this,"Steve Lawler is a dope DJ, don't get me wrong. It just seems as though he has changed his sound a lot on this CD (which I guess is one of the principal aims of a tier-1 DJ?). Steve Lawler's GU Nu Breed was huge, and it definitely made me appreciate the sound of tribal, sexy, funky beats. Dark Drums were also good works by Steve, particularly the second CD of DD 2. But this one has lost its tribal housey edge and replaced it with an electronic injection of samples and beats you would expect from Danny Howells or even Carl Cox. I don't like the faster, less deliberately layering that Lawler displays here. And it seems as though some of the other writers here agree with that as well. I don't know if he is trying to take a different step in his DJing, but he has more skills than this, and he is a premier DJ. Buy Dark Drums 2 or Nu Breed to get a better feel for Lawler."
+8824,2,Product Review,Good remake. This is just my opinion and I'm writing this because in order to leave a review I must have a certain amount of words in my review. Really!!! AYFKM. Jusy Saying.
+8825,1,"Nice bag, very uncomfortable","Bag is pretty good for a typical amateur photographer. Holds about 3-4 lenses on top of a mounted one. Has lots of pockets and compartments. Biggest (and only) complaint is that it is extremely uncomfortable to wear around. The design of it is too boxy and the way they designed the straps makes it sit very awkwardly on your back.I hope they redesign the straps, otherwise that's the biggest downfall."
+8826,1,DONT BUY IT,"I GOT THIS MP3 PLAYER FOR CHRISTMAS, IN A COUPLE OF DAYS IT BROKE. WHAT HAPPENDED WAS THAT THE CD WASNT FULLY IN THE SLOT SO WHEN I PRESS ""PLAY"" IT SAYS ""NO CD."" WELL I THINK NO BIG DEAL AND I PUT THE CD IN CORRECTLY, BUT WHEN I GO TO PRESS ""PLAY"" IT WONT WORK! I TRIED PUTTING IN NEW BATTERIES, USING THE AC ADAPTER, I TRIED EVERYTHING, BUT NOTHING SEEMED TO WORK. SO I RETURNED IT. ALSO THE CONTROLS FOR IT ARE VERY CONFUSING, THERE ISN'T EVEN AN OFF BUTTON, YOU HAVE TO OPEN IT TO TURN IT OFF. THE QUALITY OF THE SOUND IS GOOD, BUT IT HAS NO BASS AT ALL THE FM TUNER CANT PICK UP ANY SIGNALS, SO BASICALLY THIS CD/MP3 PLAYER IS HORRIBLE.

+8827,2,Replace that tacky dealer plate frame with little touch of class,"I think those dealer plate frames are so ugly and show that people really don't care about their cars if they don't spend the time to replace them. Sure, some people probably love their dealer and don't mind advertising for them, but most dealers tack on their name to the actual car these days.So, this chrome plate frame really dresses up your car, but in an understated way. No rope design, just a clean, shiny frame. Perfect for cars that have chrome accents like on the handles or side trim.This frame is heavy and well made. Order two -- one for the back and one for the front.Five stars."
+8828,1,Eh,Not crazy about the smell but I could have overlooked it if it worked as a conditioner. Does not detangle AT ALL and I'm not really sure it's doing anything for me at all.
+8829,2,A riveting and horrifying true life drama,"This book captures the nuances of true crime. It is especially interesting to see how young Detectives Pia and Tirelli help aging Detective Shevlin, sadly losing his skills, to find the killers of the beautiful victim."
+8830,2,wool,whether you have access to sheep's wool or not this is a great craft book to have in yourlibrary. especially good for crafting with kids.
+8831,2,This book filled in the personal blanks. Addictive.,"I could not wait to find this book. There were so many questions about their personal lives. Not their careers. I wanted to know about the women they loved and the broken heart Call created by his own doings. I wanted more of Gus's wit and his wonderful yet simple 'life is short, eat dessert first' look at life. Call believed he didn't have time for 'dessert'. They are the epitome of trust, loyalty, strength and weakness. The lessons you should learn in these books are ageless but somewhat forgotten in our world today. I will forever love these two devoted friends. I always wanted them to live happily ever after and find the peace that so eluded them. Gus's laughter and Call's hardness is a perfect balance. Thank you, Mr. McMurtry."
+8832,2,Awesome Musical,"This is just about the best musical I have seen and heard in a long time. This summer it played at the theatre in my hometown and I saw it twice because I couldn't get enough of the WONDERFUL music in the play. The character of Henry Jekyll/Edward Hyde is such a demanding role vocally and I could not believe how effortlessly Todd J. Allen (watch for him on Broadway - my hometown theatre helps actors earn Equity hours - and he deserves Broadway)went from Jekyll to Hyde! Also, an interesting fact about me - In December of 2001 I sang with the Magic of Christmas and one of the guest singers was none other than George Merritt (the original John Utterson in this recording). Just to let you all know, he is super nice and has a wicked sense of humor :)"
+8833,2,Not bad at all.,"The book came right on time. I think I actually got it early. However, I can't give it a full 5 stars because my cover was a little messed up and a few pages had some tears."
+8834,2,Fun book for bookaholics.,"People that read alot will like this book. It is a light, fun read.Each Chapter is a letter. So chapter 1 is A. 2 is B etc. In each chapter Jacobs discussing what is going on in his life we he reads it and a few interesting tidbits he learns. In the P's he learns that Pythagoras invented the square root it had a picture of the number 16 displayed as four 4's in a square so the the bottom 4's were the ""square root"" (4x4).I found myself laughing out loud at several parts of this book at the authors sarcastic humor.The book is about one mans intellectual quest to read the entire encyclopedia Brittanica and get all the knowledge and bragging rights that come with it."
+8835,1,Cheaply made,"The machine stopped working completley after 2 months and light usage. Bad electronics, poor quality checking, who knows....but you will want to avoid it."
+8836,2,The truth about professional dancing,"I used to do Ballet and Tap for almost ten years, while my expirence wasn't nearly as demanding or professional as portrayed in this film, it had the same ""rules."" Ballet truely is the hardest sport to learn, its demands on the body are inhumane, but the end result is beautiful. This movie gave outsiders a rare glimpse into the lives of professional dancers. It is so important to have the perfect body and do the steps perfectly that it can be too hard. A lot of the acting felt fake and forced, mainly the ones who were actually professional dancers. This film is great and gives people the real meaning of discpline."
+8837,1,Wireless Connnection Drops and Does not Connect,"I have owned this product for over a year. The reason why I bought this as because of the N connectivity, and also because it was aesthetically pleasing. The router works fine when wired, however whenever we want to connect a wireless device its a hassle. The ""Wireless"" LED on the router is almost always off unless a device is connected wirelessly, the only solution is to restart the router to make the wireless connection available. The support page on Belkin's website has disappeared too. For that reason I will take off another Star. If I was in the market for a new router, I would not buy this knowing what I know now."
+8838,1,"Great iron. Died after 1 YR,.","This was a great iron. Lots of steam, large water tank, and no water leakage. All translated into very easy ironing.Sadly, the iron died after a little after 1 YR. Black and Decker just does not build durable irons.Stay away from this one unless you are OK with a short lived appliance."
+8839,2,\m/,If you like the classic Sabbath with Dio then this is a no brainer to purchase. You get the remastered classics plus 3 new songs. I would have paid the 10.99 just for the new songs. They are very good. I wish Sign of the Southern Cross and Country Girl had been included on the CD.
+8840,2,One of the best foreign language films,"For once, a film coming from a north european country that is neither unhealthy nor perverse.Suzanne Bier is a wonderful director as she proved in two of my favorite films ""Things we lost in the fire"" and ""Brothers""."
+8841,1,Too Uncomfortable,"I haven't tried the earphones on a plane, but I found out right away that wearing the headphones is like putting a piece of wood on each ear, and holding it there with a C-clamp. It's that bad.I had thought Sony would have more comfortable earphones, but no.Save your money and get a better- but more expensive model that treats your ears properly."
+8842,1,Chinese film...dubbed in English,"I like Jackie Chan, so I keep getting suckered into these cheezy films hoping for something better. Even my teenage son who loves martial arts will not watch it...buyers beware!"
+8843,2,Build Better Than Expected,"Great product at great price (69.99 with free delivery). I recently purchased a panasonice upconverting dvd player and although the video, remote on that player is great the build quality is sub par compared to this player. glad to have this dvd player after having great experience with pioneer laser disc back in the day. usb input a huge plus. Great video. Don't hesitate."
+8844,1,Don't bother,"I am generally a big fan of Norton products, but if you have Norton SystemWorks 2003, then you have almost everything that the 2004 version has. I loaded the 2004 version and checked it out, the differences are pretty minor.Also, when I loaded the 2004 version on my computer it disabled my internet access somehow(Earthlink). It kept giving me warnings that I should run ""LiveUpdate"", but I couldn't because I couldn't get onto the internet. After I uninstalled it my internet access went back to working like normal.I'll stick with the 2003 version. I've never had any problems with it."
+8845,2,Finally something that doesn't disappoint!,"For 11 years we have owned a '97 Corolla and never found a sunshade that lasts for very long. They always begin to disintegrate, stop staying in, or just plain die. Blame the California sun.Just wanted something that was easy to install and remove, blocked most of the light and was *durable*. Finally it has arrived. This thing has been perfect, and as a rather picky consumer, I don't say that very often. It's the second one we've bought -- have already used a model that fits our Celica for 16 months.If it costs three times as much, it's because it lasts at least three times as long (and lets through NO light). Will likely ""pay for itself"" in the long run. Try one and reward these fine people for solving a longstanding problem!"
+8846,2,Communicating at Work,I work for a small school district and every penny we can save helps. We have a dual college credit course for our juniors and seniors. When I found the books that I needed for this Speech class online I was amazed at the prices. We pay for the books for our students to take these college classes and finding book that are in good condition and at such a low cost is wonderful. I will be purchasing more books from Amazon in the near future. Thanks for selling your items at such a great price and giving us the opportunity to help our students with their education.Sharon Tinney
+8847,2,less good ole girl than Paula Deen,"Natalie Dupree has the southern style cooking and recipes down pat. She is just not as commercialized as Paula. The recipes and narration are right on. This is from a girl who grew up Southern Country and is living the life. She also is now living in the culinary capital of the eastern US, charleston, sc. I too have lived this life and can tell you from 1st hand experience that all her book are great."
+8848,2,Fantastic,"Informative, entertaining, and consise. A great survey of important archeological discoveries....but written in a highly readable way."
+8849,2,Good Movie,I've enjoyed watching this movie again. It's become a favorite of mine and I've watched it several times since purchasing it.
+8850,2,Back singing what she sings best,"This album is a return to the kind of songs that drew me to Mary Chapin Carpenter in the first place. Story songs, songs that find the intensely personal in even major events.Remember 'I am a Town'? Ok, you get the idea."
+8851,2,Classic Expanded...,"Purchased this within the last year as I had the older VHS version of the Christmas special I wanted to replace. For the price (just a few dollars, new and shipped directly by amazon) this item was an absolute bargain. I had always assumed there was the Christmas special but with this DVD to get the Thanksgiving and Halloween specials included was very much appreciated."
+8852,2,NEXTEL BOOST PHONE,GREAT PRODUCT THAT IS AS GREAT FOR NEXTEL AS IT IS FOR BOOST INSERT YOUR SIM & GO!
+8853,2,Excellent book,This is an excellent book and definitely an eye opener. I would definitely recommend the book to anyone who wants to know more about health and nutrition. The book not only tell what the health issues are but also tell you how to correct them.
+8854,2,Great for studing for the CSET exam!,"I just purchased this book and I am using it as a supplement to Jerry Bobrow's CSET muliple subject test prep book (Cliffs Test Prep) and it is great! It's written in a simple language, and contains all sorts of review,pictures, charts, etc. It has been MANY years since I have studied science and this so far is helping me remember all the material neccessary for passing the test."
+8855,1,No good take homes...,"As a fairly new manager and small business owner I was looking for a book that gave me some great basics on how to lead, motivate, and manage people. By about page 98 I realized this book was not going to deliver any salient points. I've never written a review, but felt strongly about passing this on, as the close to 5 star review is what motivated me to purchase the book. I'd assume most people needing to read a book like this are like me, and tremendously busy without time to waste - I felt obligated to warn other readers against wasting their time."
+8856,1,Blank dvd disc,"So, this dvd will not play on two different dvd players, nor on the computer's player. Thanks for sending me a blank copy."
+8857,1,pseudo-intellectual nonsense,"I watched this movie with all the anticipation of someone who had heard stellar reviews from professionals and friends alike. As a huge fan of art film, I was prepared to watch it and declare a new favorite.To say the least, I was disappointed.This is a self-indulgent journey into the mind of a self-important writer who fancies himself in the same league as Aristotle by asking questions that might as well be, ""Is that a reflection of myself in the mirror, or is the real world going on inside the mirror and I'm merely the reflection?""Philosphy for 3rd graders, I suppose.This is absurdity at its most inflated and self-aggrandizing. The method of animating live-action film is the only innovative feature here, and it's really rather pointless, unless you buy into what the makers are selling, in which case it you would consider it pure genius, i'm sure.I gave it 2 stars simply because it's at least an attempt at something important. Unfortunately, it falls very, very short."
+8858,2,Black Lucas,"First you have to get used to Lucas Davenport, the quintessential Mid-American, being played by a Black man. In fact 3 Black actors have key roles. Lucas's Old Girlfriend (Can only think of her nickname which would probably not get past the censors) is black. She gets killed in this movie. Pretty sure she is still alive in the print series. Thought the actor playing John Mail, Nailed the role. Also the victims , the victim's family and assocuates were all quite good. See this with an open mind, and I think that you will enjoy it as I did."
+8859,1,wow - ! this guy is slow...,"The premise of the story is interesting in the same way maybe Jurassic Park makes you wonder - ""It would be neat if it could be true."" But the main character in this book is so slow to catch on. He has this arsenal of people who are excellent at their jobs of finding information for him and yet, he doesnt seem to know what to do with what he uncovers. As the reader, I found myself getting progressively irritated at Joe Lassiter. He was always at a loss. He was single minded about finding the Grimaldi character and dismissing an important connection to his riddle.If this was the authors style of 'suspense' - it left me irritated.Next time, find a smarter hero."
+8860,2,Decide Now!,"Imagination,hammers, nails and some cheap audio tape!That's all this band needs to create a mini-masterpiece. Part beat band pop and part beat poetry,the sounds slide from one mood to another sometimes rock sloganeering, sometimes slinky-hipped wondering. Robert Pollard has one of the best voices in rock. Tobin Sprout SEEMS like some sort of angel. The bass playing may be mixed low but is sweet and supportive.The song writing superb.The overall affect is of a rusty lunch kit packed with all your favorite drugs and candy."
+8861,2,Best price out there & works on the ORIGINAL Xbox too!,"First off I would like to say that this wireless adapter is compatible with the ORIGINAL Xbox. I was skeptical until I found the model number on Microsoft's website and it matched the one listed here. I also looked at several vendors both online and local to compare prices, noting that they all charged around $100 I was very happy to find Amazon selling at a reasonable price. My son was anxious to get set up online so we ordered on Thursday using our Prime account and it arrive on Saturday. I think the most difficult part was removing it from the packaging, otherwise he was set up within minutes. Overall a good deal and easy purchase. I would recommend this item to others looking to go Live."
+8862,1,"This PRODUCT is a total, sensless rip-off","This movie, as a movie, is decent - great special effect, acting, costumes, storytelling, although it literally rapes the original story in several, non-trivial points.As a PRODUCT, however, it is not worth our money, as the extended edition was already available and there is nothing short of a marketing ploy to not release that in Blu-Ray.Shame!"
+8863,2,Fantastic for the price,"We've owned it for about a month now and it works fantastic. Water pressure is good, much better than other filters we've used. Doesn't take very long at all to fill up a glass. Installation was stupidly simple and I was up and running in no time. Water quality is great coming out of the unit, very good taste and no odor. I can REALLY tell the difference when we make coffee or tea, much more tasty.Really my only complaint is that it is kind of cheap feeling, which isn't a huge deal since it wasn't expensive."
+8864,2,Real Life Adventure,"I bought this book because a friend and I intend to ride from North to South America in 2018 when all our kids have grown old enough not to miss us. I really hope that we don't have to live through what Glen did but who knows what the continent will be like in 10 years? This is a brilliantly written book with lots of good information and tips for travel. The section on Columbia is well done and doesn't overdominate the story. I wonder from Ted Simon's comments in 'Dreaming of Jupiter' after meeting Glen following his ordeal, if Glen has downplayed his emotional state a little. It must have been a totally awful experince and one I doubt I could have survived. It just goes to show that it helps to be strong when attempting a journey like this but like so many things at the end of the day its all about mental toughness. I take my hat off to Glen and he has inspired me yet again to start my own adventure."
+8865,1,Threads broken,"The inside threads were broken, making it nearly impossible to put on the stand. However, we did finally get it on, but now it will not stay on the stand. Because the cost of it was so cheap, it is not worth sending back."
+8866,1,DO NOT BUY THIS PHONE!!!,Cuts out constantly... not a good phone at all. I wanted it for my business phone and I cannot even use it because it cuts out all the time for no reason. Even with FULL BARS wifi reception. I promise you that this is the worst phone ever!!
+8867,2,"Haha,","This is hilarious, the way people ALAWAYS b*tch about stuff these days. Seriously, EVERY hard rock and metal album since January 1st, 2000 has gotten sh*t on from EVERYBODY, look around on this site, you'll hardly ever find an album with 4 or more stars, because everybody throws a fit when an artist does even the SLIGHTEST thing different. I'm a fan of all sub-genres of hard rock and metal, and Orgy are not that high on my list, and yes, Candy@ss is, in my opinion, their best album, but grow up, people. Go change yourselves, because I smell a strong hint of sh*t whenever I read a review on this site."
+8868,2,Jam anyone?,"This CD capture a great band during their heyday. If your a SD fan you should pick it up. If your not a big fan, this cd could change your mind. I have listened to it many times over and over. The recording quality is great and the cd is jam packed full of the energy of a live show."
+8869,2,"volumes I and volume II , yes II","I have had this soundtrack ever since the movie was released and I have been attracted to the soundtrack as well as the movie. Sorry to say I would love to see the long version everyone is talking about ( please e-mail me if you have any info about it....) There is a volume 2 in cd.... It is an import "" LEGRAND BLEU volume II "" I found it in a music store on the Island of St. Martin and could not pass it up. It was a Great Find...... Use my posted e-mail address OR: DIOTALE@YAHOO.COM"
+8870,2,Seabiscuit is my hero here in 2004!,"It took me a while to get thru the first part because the author writes about the history of the owner and the jockey. It got interesting when I got to the middle of the book. The book is full of old photos of Seabiscuit and some of his races. I actually cried during some of the sad parts. I just wished I was there back in the 30's so I could really see Seabiscuit in a race. I was never a horse lover, but after reading this book I realized what a great horse Seabiscuit was and what a true American hero he was for people back then. I'm glad Laura Hillenbrand wrote this book so Seabiscuit would not be forgotten."
+8871,1,Plot Twists A Little Too Twisted,"First of all I cannot stand Jennifer Aniston in any way,shape or form! But wanting to watch something in this day of retread movie plots I gave it a go.I have to say Anniston was a better actress than I thought, because from the moment she meets Clive Owen it looks like she couldn't care less about him and therefore I guessed where the plot was going immediately and what her agenda really was.Why would such a cash strapped guy with a sick kid even THINK about doing what he did? I found that hard to believe.At least Aniston won't be around much longer.She's on the downhill slide to 40 and not movie star pretty at all. In fact in the hotel where the big assault happens, did anyone notice as she is sitting on the bed how much like DUSTIN HOFFMAN she is beginning to look like?Thank Brad for your fame, girl, otherwise you're just a faded TV hack."
+8872,1,Didn't work for me,We purchased this strap for our Lazy Susan and it comes with tape on the back to adhere the strap to the cupboard but the tape is a joke. I simply pushed on the cupboard after taping the strap onto it and it just pulled right off. So this would in turn be way more dangerous for a baby because if the cupboard held their weight slightly they would try to push up on the cupboard and then when the tape comes loose they would crash inside of the lazy susan and if you can picture that happenning you can imagine how fun that would be!! I've had the worst time finding a safety lock for my lazy susan and I was really hoping that this one would work after reading some of the reviews but no such luck.
+8873,2,Great Pants,"These pants are very comfortable. They are roomy with plenty of pockets to carry a lot of stuff, even a functional cell phone pocket. Amazon shipping cant be beat. I only live about 100 miles from an Amazon warehouse and I got it the next day with the free shipping. Great, just great. I dont know how they could be any better."
+8874,1,Limited help and weak examples,The book has good introduction material the examples described in the book are bit old and some of the classes are deprecated. The book also needs an update to include newer features of JCE and JSSE. I hurried up to buy this book and then realized it is bit outdated. Now I have Core security patterns by chris steel which covers well on cryptography api and examples using j2se 5.0 and j2ee 1.4 as well.
+8875,1,what's the fuss about?,"I followed the hype and bought it. Big mistake. Hellooooo there! Not only is it painfully academic, it's also plain boring. If you're into lounge look on Lisa Ekdahl's side. If you love jazz just listen to Kurt Elling. When HE does a ballad album there's more than meets the ear..."
+8876,1,disappointed,"First and last time I read Linda Howard if this is her typical style. A little reality please. A police officer takes the victim home with him. Yeah sure. Happens all the time. A woman who pretends to be dumb when it suits her gives all woman a bad name. Makes me want to scream grow up Blair! Nobody cares that you were homecoming queen 10 years ago. Ex-husbands new wife is jealous of you, sure thing! I usually read murder mysteries and this is not even close."
+8877,1,The Basset Hound Owner's Survival Guide,"For the soon to be basset owner, this book is pointless. I have experience with bassets and was able to enjoy the anecdotes, but the anecdotes are the problem. The book is overflowing with little vignettes and not much else. There are other owner guides to the basset hound that address in detail important issues like feeding, health and grooming without the endless accompanying tales. I was extremely disappointed and wouldn't recommend it for a novice basset owner. it just doesn't cover the hard facts it needs to."
+8878,1,It Started In Naples DVD,"I received the DVD entitled ""It Started in Naples"" and it will not play. All other DVD's as well as CD's play. Who do I see about this since I cant find a way on Amazon to return it or call anyone regarding this. I was heartbroken. I love this movie and have it on VHS. Finally broke down and bought on DVD and now I am stuck with it. Can someone please contact via email and allow me to purchase another one and return this one. Thank you. Ruth"
+8879,2,Gel Flex Pads are great!,"I work with Pathologist all day and they continually complain that their arms hurt from looking into the microscopes all day. After looking over their situation a bit I decided to buy them some of the gel pads to put under their elbows. Well, it worked....they love them."
+8880,2,GREAT BOOK!,"Loved it, couldn't put it down, he's a talented writer that keeps the pace moving enough to maintain reader interest, and enough so that you are sorry to see the book end. Looking forward to more from him!"
+8881,2,works fine,works like it is suppose to...and adds security at the gate and our home. Easy to use and adds peace of mind
+8882,2,A True Treasure,"An excellent compilation of biography, antecdotes, and sermons. This book is a delight to read, and keeps alive our beloved friend, neighbor and pastor. The pictures are a treasure in and of themselves. Definitely a must-have."
+8883,1,Not Good,Nice watch. The small hands where off and you could not adjust them. I read the directions on how to adjust the hands. Only the small second hand would adjust not the others. So I return the watch.
+8884,1,Junk.,"They do not work. We tried these in 2 different sizes, with children and adults of varying weights. The only thing anti-gravity about them is that they make you taller. A huge Christmas disappointment."
+8885,1,very unhappy,I was ever disapointed with this book. I didn't read the reviews for book 4 because I had enjoyed the other 3 so much.But this book was divied into two books which I would have liked to know before I got to the end of the book. Goes to show the writter was after the money not the reader. I have not bought book five for that reason.
+8886,2,A Must Read for People Dealing with C Level Executives,"I have dialed the phone over 250,000 times in the past 25+ years. Most of those calls were trying to reach C level executives of companies across North America. This is one of the best books on sales I have ever read.Tom 2 tall Cunningham[...]"
+8887,1,Not worth the $,This book is big and like a coloring book. It is easy to rip and clumsy to handle. Do yourself and your little one a favor and buy another book.
+8888,2,wonderful heartwarming movie,"I found this movie to be wonderful, heartwarming, and entertaining. Drew Fuller is one of the best actors of our times!"
+8889,1,Not so good...,"I bougth this title after reading much praise. Personally I am very disappointed. Concept is good but treatment is bad. First half was superb. However, direction and story lost the track in second half."
+8890,1,Completely outrageous!,"You've got to be kidding me! Could this be any more Orwellian??? ""Fostering a dispositon for activism"" is one of the topics in this book. The classroom is a wholly inappropriate place to be indoctrinating young children in questionable leftist rhetoric and activism. Many parents would be agahst if they knew their children were being recruited as the next generation of protesting myrmidons."
+8891,2,This CD is good but.....,I really wish they would come out with a 2nd CD with all the songs performed in the movie. Most people I have spoken to about this all agree. I hope you agree as well.My favorite song wasn't on it and I was very disappointed. When I listened to the whole thing and the ending song wasn't on there it was a shock. Ewan's voice gives me the chills and that song is one of the best he sings. Other than that I LOVE THIS MOVIE AND CD.
+8892,2,BOOK LIVES UP TO THE REST,"This was a great story. Artemis lives up to expectaions, and even sheds light on a side you never thought. Then just when you think you know Jarlaxle he throws in a grand new surprise that keeps you bitting your nails until the next release. I can only hope that the sea of swords takes off where this one leaves. Servant of the shard is a must for any fantasy colletor, not to mention any fan of Jarlaxle, and his Bregan D'aerthe."
+8893,2,Underworld,I like this saga. It keeps one interested from the beginning to the end. I can't wait for the new one that is coming out.
+8894,2,"A bit boring at first, but a real page -turner later!","Caught in the middle of war. That's a pretty good discription of Mary's situation. Mary's Father is a die heart Tory,(he's loyal to the king of England, that is) witch poses a problem, seeing as her 18 year old brother, William, is a Patriot. On the night of the Peal's ball, which they have been preparing for since page one, Mary discovers an unexpected suprise in the shed... This story deals with alot of emotional subjects: :loyalty, family pride, the deep love of sister for brother, and, no matter how stubborn both might be, father for son. I thought what Mary's father did near the end was great. It brings to mind the old phrase: Actions Speak Louder Then Words. My love of history made me want to try this, and I'm very glad I did.I Loved this book!!!!"
+8895,1,Alexander the Great A Biography,"In the description it didn't state that it was a former public library book and that it was stamped as such in various places and even included the library card holder. The book was profusely underlined. I was extremely disappointed because your description was ""good"". I wouldn't buy from this seller"
+8896,2,PRINTING WHILE ON THE ROAD,"AN EXCELLENT COMPACT, USER FRIENDLY AND LIGHT WEIGHT PRINTER. EASY TO SET UP, GOOD PRINTING QUALITY, AND MAC COMPATIBLE. A MUST HAVE FOR ROAD WARRIORS."
+8897,1,too thick and highlights flaws,"I don't recommend this makeup. I am a very youthful looking 32 (no ""fine lines"" yet) and this makeup made my skin look terrible. It's too thick, to start with. I tried applying it with a brush and with a powder puff and neither worked well. It highlighted every small flaw and looked too thick and ""makeup-like"". If you enjoy the look of wearing thick foundation, I guess this product would be good. It created an extra layer which creased as the day wore on, making it look like I had wrinkles where I normally don't. Also, this makeup has a shiny look to it.As an alternative, I recommend one of the ""tinted moisturizer"" type products, which are just a light touch. If you have nice looking skin, but just want an added touch of radiance, this product won't be right for you. It's better suited to the type of women who wear way too much makeup."
+8898,2,My son loves these and customer service is phenomenal,"Our two year old boy wouldn't keep any headphones on but he loves these. He will keep them on for hours, so they must be comfortable. We had a little issue with a short near the volume control. Emailed Kidz gear and they called within 15 minutes telling me that they were mailing out a new pair. Exceptional Customer service!There is a lifetime warranty on these. They had issues with an old batch and it has been corrected. Get them!"
+8899,2,Overalls,"This item is everything it is advertised to be. It is strong, sturdy and wearable. I will purchase more since we are remodeling a house at present."
+8900,2,Funny but slim,"Bill is a funny guy but if you laid this thing out like a regular book, skipping all the pictures and white space, it'd probably be about 40 pages. Of course, his 40 pages outshine alot of people's 200 or 300 pages..."
+8901,2,A complete delight!,"Claire Cook has written a laugh-out-loud novel about the way we live now. She casts a flinty eye on marriage, motherhood, suburban back yards. This is a big-hearted, beautifully written romp that will have readers nodding and laughing in recognition. Give yourself a treat and buy this book!"
+8902,1,Cable,"This was not the cable I wanted, I will keep it anyway. The cable I wanted is a VGA cable so that I could watched things like Netflix from my iPhone to my tv"
+8903,2,Great Bag for Travel,Great golf travel bag. Very well padded. Comes with detachable golf shoe bag. Great purchase.
+8904,2,Give it a try,"Some people have said that this does not work. I dissagree. You need to give a program a chance and not give up on it. If you are already on a program or you are only looking to loose 10 lbs then this is not for you. These exercises are for people who can not lift a lot of weight. I had people in other exercise classes who were much more physically fit then I, and they claimed that the weight I was using was not enought to affect anything. This program is to help you start getting into shape. If you want to keep yourself in shape then you need to do it yourself."
+8905,2,Survivorman: Season 2,"I own all of the Survivorman series. Season 2 is excellent as are all of the others. If you spend time in the outdoors, you will really enjoy this."
+8906,2,Very funny and interesting!,"I recently came across Crankshaft as it's printed in newspapers in California, rather than in my hometown. I absolutely love the comic strip, so I quickly got this. This book is excellent. I was surprised as it was published this year, but the strips in the book were created about ten years ago. The Crankshaft comic strips are similar to Lynn Johnston's For Better or For Worse, as both strips show real-life situations and stories, while the family grows along with us. The Alzheimer story with two people associated with the Crankshaft family is very touching. All in all, it's a great book, and I absolutely loved it."
+8907,1,My thoughts,This book sucked. Don't read it. This is a very poorly written book. IT is also very boring. I was forced to read it for a class. :(
+8908,1,Bad Quality,"I ordered this a while ago, and was very disappointed in the quality. The voices are not the same, the game is quite boring compared to ultimate ninja 2 and 3. But worst of all, there's no where that you can change difficulty or sound. I wouldn't waste my money on something as crappy as this."
+8909,2,This translation served my needs,"While I have a number of translations of Dante's ""Divine Comedy,"" I wanted a newer one which would be easier to read in more or less modern English. This one suited my needs now.Ciardi is a poet rather than a Dante scholar, and his translation reflects that approach, but I found it very useful, especially with the extensive introductions and notes he provides. I would recommend this work to anyone who is new to Dante's contribution to Western literature."
+8910,2,Need to have for the kitchen,I bought a J.A. Henckels International kitchen shear to cut herbs and green onions but eventually using it for cutting chicken because it is very sharp and it is easier to cut through the bones. I am glad I chose this brand when searching for kitchen shears on line. I will not hesitate to buy the same product again when the need arises.
+8911,2,"LOVE this old album...brings back fun memories, even if you think it's ""corny"".","Love these guys, this is the best album to get of all their old music. Hats off to amazon for offering it to us for such a low price, we love you guys!"
+8912,2,Glad to have Jeff back,"I have been a fan of Jeff Healey since the 80's. I am pleased that his ""new"" venture into Jazz and Blues finally got an album available in the US. Jeff is great on the trumpet, his guitar (as always) is fantastic, and his vocals are enjoyable. While I am not a fan of the trombone the fiddler with the Jazz Wizards was a surprise and is a lot of fun. If you are a Jeff Healey fan and like Jazz and Blues I would recommend adding this to your collection."
+8913,2,"Awesome, Talented Men!!!","I saw the Los Lonely Boys in Chattanooga, TN at a Brew Festival and enjoyed every minute of their show. I think they played almost every song from their album. I bought a copy from them and they were even nice enough to sign it for me. If you haven't heard them live, you SHOULD!!! They are just as good live as you hear on the CD. I was so impressed. I keep the CD in my car so I can listen all the time and believe me, I do. The songs are so catchy that I can't get them out of my head sometimes. If you don't own a copy of this, BUY ONE!!!! These guys are gonna make it big really soon!!"
+8914,2,Incomplete but still wonderful,"An odd collection this. It doesn't represent ALL of their E.P. tracks. It includes many album-tracks which most fans will have already. And, most annoyingly, with so many excellent b-sides not included, there's EMPTY SPACE at the end of the first CD which could have been utilised!! That said, the music is still amazing, beautiful, heavenly. The gripes and groans posted elsewhere in regards to Alison's voice are empty gestures. Like Dylan and Cohen, either you get past the voice and wallow in the sonic heaven, or you don't. Cranes have always been one of the more original outfits to emerge from the UK... epic sweeping songs, droning beats, and vocals which drip like treacle around the listener's head. It's not a good starting point (nor is it very complete); all the same, this collection is HIGHLY recommended."
+8915,1,It's not worth it,I looked at some reviews online before buying that said that the blu ray for Mallrats had the same material as the 10th Anniversary DVD. Maybe some other blu ray release did but this one did not. It has no special features and worse yet it's a Universal Studios blu ray which means you have to go through the fuss and bother of selecting a language and go through the Universal promos before getting to watch the thing and if you have a temperamental remote for your blu ray player like I do then you may have to go through this process a few times. Aside from that the picture and audio is pretty much the same. So basically if you just want Mallrats as a blu ray just because you like the color blue and want to add to the color on your shelf then this is for you.
+8916,1,Compaq support,"My S4 100 scanner is only about 6 months old. It will only scan in a sort of pinkish/red color, although up to this point, it worked fine. I called Compaq support and received NO HELP. Their representative informed me that my warranty was up and that they could do no further troubleshooting for me. I think this is very bad customer service and just thought I would let you know."
+8917,2,Bring on The Divas!,""" Divas of the New Millennium "" is a great read. You'll find a lot of new information. I am not a fan of all the artists in the book so it was nice to read about the ones I didn't know. I liked the way the book was put together. It flowed beautifully. I read in the book that Stacy and Natasha are fiction authors but I am looking forward to another biography book from them. I hope they put together a book of male singers. Hopefully one with Usher because he's my favorite singer. If you like music and these artists you have to get this book. Everyone on my block got it. The book was very impressive. I didn't notice any big mistakes or anything. Some people just always have to say something negative no matter what. People need to stop hating. The authors are just doing their thing and they did it well. This is a very good book and most of the people I know bought it and like it too."
+8918,1,"Put some clothes on, Alanis!",Alanis Morissette has shown none of the class Britney Spears has in her ten-year career. Alanis is constantly flaunting herself in front of the camera to make up for her lack of talent. Listen to Britney Spears instead!!!
+8919,1,Twice disappointed,Bought this model after similar older model was discontinued and could no longer get replacement parts such as to replace the busted coffee pot. The newer model (XP 1500) heating element or hot plate burnt out after a year so we accepted the loss and bought the same model because it did make a good pot of coffee and espresso. The newest version we purchased earlier this year puts off a disgusting burnt plastic odor when a pot of coffee is made. I suspect because of the fine Chinese plastic materials used in the manufacturing. So much for that fresh coffee aroma in the morning. Very discouraged and dissapointed. Espresso maker works fine.
+8920,1,Hype & Fluff from MSNBC's Middleton,"Gross is an excellent bond trader (and thats the key word, he actively trades, PIMCO trades) no doubt about it, but Middleton makes a read much like Bonners ""Financial Reckoning Day"" he just keeps repeating his mantra: Total Return.In total honesty you could summarize this book in the following words: active buying and selling of bonds will give you ""total return."" What counts as total return is the coupon and the price you make from selling. There are no ""secrets"" as alleged on the slick paper wrapper and there is very little ""Gross."" Its all Middleton's fluff and it looks like he would do quite well in a prior era where people were paid by the word."
+8921,2,Beautiful Story,Lovely story about how quickly a rumor can get out of control play havoc on an innocent person's good reputation. There is a lesson there for everyone from 8 to 80....beautifully illustrated.
+8922,1,Way Way....too sweet..............,"I like rasbery syrup on ice cream and saw this product on line.It 's way way too sweeet ,,full of cane sugar...i woud not reccomend this or any other of their products."
+8923,1,Laughable...,"My natural inclination was was to give this a one star, but a one star rating is pretty strong. It's not like I hate this album, it just sucks.I'm not jumping the gun either. I've listened to this thing like 5 or 6 times in a row and I actually wanted it to be good. The first song literally sounds like a crying baby. Each line seems to end with a ""WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!"" just like an infant. I wanted to reach into my stereo and give him a pacifier.The first and third tracks are the only one's that even grow on you after a bunch of listens. I don't know how many hundreds of listens it would take for the rest of the songs to.Get one of the first two!"
+8924,1,Tremenda Porqueria,Estaba muy decepcionado por este album...quisas 2 buenas cansiones pero...mas na'no hay palabras para describir que mal estuvo este album
+8925,1,poor quality,horrible taste and texture. worst I have ever tasted and I have tried a very wide variety of chorizo's.do not order.
+8926,2,Very User Friendly!,"The book is well organized. I was able to use it, immediately, to answer 'basic questions' to help a relative avoid a costly mistake and, more importantly, to learn 'options' that could help. Though I am an insurance agent, I've had little exposure to the 401(k), IRA, etc., market. This book is quickly moving me to the 'top 20% group' of informed agents and financial advisors. I highly recommend it, thanks to Ed Slott!"
+8927,1,Spacing problems ruin the rhythm,"I bought the $4 kindle edition instead of the 99 cent one, thinking it would have corrected the spacing problems of the earlier version. I also assumed, incorrectly, that the book would contain a selection of poems and a table of contents. I was sorely disappointed to find only two poems, with the lines run together. I'm a kindle fan, but in this case, I recommend a paper version."
+8928,2,"WHO THE HELL IS KEITH EMERSON?, PART II","Lipatti is the greatest classical pianist I have ever heard; the level of PURITY and NON-SENTIMENTAL ROMANTIC TRANSCENDENCE is just AMAZING. He is the greatest interpreter of Chopin who ever lived, better than Horowitz even. Unfortunately the man suffered a tragic early death and his recordings are few.I treasure everything on this Double CD set, except for the Schuman and the Grieg pieces, which I hate; but that's just my particular taste and reflects my inability to tolerate orchestral overemphasis interfering with Lipatti's sublime meditations."
+8929,1,Horrible!,"Unfortunately, I ordered this book, sight unseen, from this site. What I did not know (and would have if I had been in a store) is that this book is based on a ""religion"" of Eckanar of which the author, Sri Klemp, is the ""leader,"" the ""living ECK master."" On page xiii of the forward we are told that Klemp is the ""mahanta."" On page 8 we are told that (only?)Eckanar students are under the protection of the mahanta. And on page 9, third paragraph, comes this sentence---""It often happens that a dreamer, who does not have the protection of the Mahanta, simply dies in his sleep."" Every single page, no joke, contains reference to ECK and Eckanar. After no more than a dozen pages I was so fed up with it that I could not finish this book."
+8930,1,BEWARE OF OTHER PREVIEWS PRESENTED ON THIS DVD,"Rented on DIRECTV and have to say enjoyed and appreciated the 1970's humor. BUT the first 5 minutes was of a drag queen movie preview. It's not that we feel ""to each his own"" but we feel movie previews need to be appropriate for all ages, and in our opinion this was preview did not meet that standard. We Called DIRECTV and they said studios who own the movies are responsible for such previews. We are now afraid to purchase the dvd and just feel that people should be aware of this fact. And we also will not support a movie studio that takes such liberties."
+8931,2,Messages From The Quo,"Although not much like their signature '3 chords no waiting' heavy boogie rock later in their career, this release had alot going for it. Called ""Messages From The Status Quo"" in the states, on the Cadet Concept label, it's single Pictures Of Matchstick Men was all over the radio in the late 60s, and rightly so. I still crank up the radio the few times the track is played these days, mainly because the DJs now are either too young to know about it, or don't have the cahonies to play it. The overall sound of the album is solid British pop psych with interesting songs layered with phasing and other effects, and for a first album, 1968 was definately a banner year thanx to this one and the few like it."
+8932,1,Overrated,This book is overrated by a longshot. If I didn't know any better I could swear that this book wasn't even edited! Turtledove has 50 things going on at once! There are too many characters and too little continuity. I would recommend this book to anyone who has insomnia.
+8933,1,Bad Quality of DVD,"Very disappointed with the DVD quality, it is even worse than any new VHS tapes. Even at the first time I played it, some part was not able to play. I wish the DVD/CD purchasing policy covered the case how to handle defect DVD/CD. Contents do cover a lot bellet movements."
+8934,1,Everyday Sun Magic,"I was very disappointed with this book, having been a practicing witch since 14 and yes we are now in a 24,000 year sun cycle. working with the sun doing magic can be very powerful and liberating. this book offered nothing new and to me was just another book filled with new age nonsense."
+8935,2,Wonderful!,"One of my all time favorite movies. This is a truly funny film! No matter that it's a familiar theme--the characters are richly developed and endearing, and there are hilarious moments interwoven with poignant ones. I'm trying to find this movie on DVD, as it's also a favorite of my 24 year old daughter. The movie is timeless."
+8936,1,now 1/2 the book for the price of one!?!?!,I can not believe that they are taking the books and splitting them into 2. Just to make more money. The single book was about 7.99 and now the split book is 5.99 each so they are now 4 more dollars. what a rip for a very good series of books.
+8937,2,Nice game but...,"This is a funny nice game but my son could not play it for Christmas due to the bad service that Amazon gave me, they just charged my credit card but did not send this and another items that I bought from them; I had to send several emails to get them; Really bad customer service Amazon."
+8938,1,rubbish,"this comes from an action fan, and this aint no action film i was expecting something to keep me excited and on the edge of my seat. no way. there are like 4 fighting scences, and admitedlly these are very good but that does not lift the whole film, the dialogue in between these fight scences is laughable, i went to sleep 4 times in the cinema. now some people might like borin ""chat"" but i dont if a film is goin be based on the talking it should at least be well written like shawshank redemtion but this is borin i repeat borin borin borin. i know a lot of people will disagree with this but then maybe they werent expecting an action fest like it billed. so if u like boring chatter (a lot of) and a fighting (not much of) then buy this but i personally would not buy it. the end of my rant :)"
+8939,1,"Ok, with little enthusiasm","My son and I read the book together. We read a chapter each day then discussed it. He thought it was well done and understood it for the most part. He said he learned some good things and hoped to utilize them. The book was ok.I agree with him; it was ok, with little enthusiasm. Straight forward material and to the point. Bill would give us ""his story"" relating to each chapter so the kids could relate. This is by no means ""the"" survival guide, but a helpful book on subjects such as: friends, bullies, divorce, smoking, money, cheating, sports, health, work and many others. Of course the parent makes the best teacher.Wish you wellScott"
+8940,2,Excelent Backup Flashlight,"It's a well made product by Smith & Wesson... It's not heavy or too light that will fall without care...I recommend to use/buy rechargable batteries so you can forget about batteries :DThe two button feature is awesome!! The While LED light is bright enough to find things in the night, the Red Leds is a smart touch for night use too. Thumbs up!"
+8941,2,Fascinating romp through an interesting period of history,"Lord Curzon and his daughters were at the epicenter of events and their lives intersected with so many prominent people. This book is altogether fascinating from many points of view: politics, society, and customs. After reading it, I got on a roll of reading biographies of other people of that era: the Duke and Duchess of Windsor, Nancy Astor, Nancy Lancaster, and the five Langhorne sisters."
+8942,1,This toy doesn't serve its function,"I bought this toy to store my children's every multiplying collection of cars. Unfortunately, the two halves of the ""suitcase"" easily fall apart and the gray piece that is intended to hold the cars in place fails to do so. I would suggest finding an alternative car storage unit. The launcher works fine but I was looking for a storage unit."
+8943,1,AAHHH!!! (as in suprise and/or alarm),"me and my fellow cohorts thought we'd find a new way to torture ourselves via the medium of motion picture, or ""talkies"" as i perfer to call them. i started it all with ""head"" starring the monkeys, and thought it best i end the torture 3 or so weeks later, after such masterpieces as ""battlefield earth"", ""kazaam"", and ""santa with muscles"", by renting ""da hip hop witch""(check the reviews on that, and i think his grudge against me is still in effect). but the pain was far from over after we found this ""doozy"".why was this movie even made? here's all i have to say about the movie.1-Gene Siskel called it one of the worst movies of the year... and then died later that year(possibly from the movie, we can't be sure...more tests)2-maximum of 1,000 words, hrmm, i could have done it in two: Diaper Gravy."
+8944,1,Prefer Atlas Shrugged,I have started but never finished this book. I have heard that people usually prefer either The Fountainhead OR Atlas Shrugged. I just happen to prefer Dagny to Roark.
+8945,1,Puffy!! Sit Yo a** down boy!! U can't rap!! Brotha!!,"""Young G's"" cool beat, wacked verses by Puffy and Jay-Z, the 2 worst rappers 2 grab hta mic. Butt tha songz wit Biggie and Kim iz the only reason your album didn't cope a 1. Sorry Puff, U, Mase, and defentaly The Lox R all totally wacked!! Butt Faith iz the most gorgeous thing i have ever seen!! She iz so beautifull!!!"
+8946,2,When you lose faith in human nature read this book.,This is another must read not so much for its literary qualities (apologies to author) but for the story of a village who risked everything for strangers. Would we put our own children in harms way to shelter others? I hope so. Remember this book when you are an impatient driver away from thinking that we're all hopelessly selfish. And then do something kind.
+8947,2,Scholarly look at how 'the rules' came to be,"Vatican II confirms that every Christian should listen to what God says to them directly. This book will help you see how church leaders were affected by polictial and other forces to make some of the church rules. When people say don't follow blindly, that doesn't mean you can't open your eyes and still follow. Read the book. Listen to God. Agree or disagree, but live your beliefs with conviction!"
+8948,2,Decent gate for the price,"We've gone through a lot of gates over the past 8 years, and so far this one is probably one of the best we've owned. We're using it across a doorway instead of stairs, but I'm sure it would be a safe gate for stairs too. It's very solid/sturdy. My husband was impressed with the templates it came with (to place the brackets & screws for mounting); no other gate has ever come with a template.The latching is a bit loud, but at least we're sure it's closed that way! And it's very easy for my older kids to open the gate, yet difficult enough that the younger ones cannot. Another thing to keep in mind is that it's not an easy gate for kids to climb over, unlike the old accordian-style gates."
+8949,1,Cheap Chinese Crap!!!,"Another sad example of Chinese junk!!! The stapler made famous by its legacy on American desks and the movie Office Space is... dead. This piece of junk was cracked because it was made of plastic, and stapled once because it's mechanism was cheap metal that jammed. It's not even good enough for a paperweight because the color isn't even correct or uniform! Take my advice, either pay for the standard metal stapler, made somewhere else if possible, or hold on to the one you've got. By the way, tried ordering a replacement, which Amazon promptly sent, only to receive another POS that was in even worse condition! Avoid, Avoid, Avoid!!!!"
+8950,1,Bought it and was not satisfied.,"First one lasted 3 days then quit working. [...]That one never worked right out of the box. Koolatron didn't respond to my emails about the second unit. I wouldn't recommend this product, nor any other product from this company."
+8951,1,Not for strenuous activity,These headphones are not for strenuous activity. Sweat running down your head collects in the headphone ear pieces and blocks out the sound.
+8952,1,Spoon rest,"It arrived well packaged and in a timely manner but I was disappointed in the quality since the wording on the spoonrest is crooked and the sample picture depicts the label boarder as cobalt blue, which is my kitchen accent color, but it arrived with a black boarder. Also it's on the small side for use with cooking utensils."
+8953,1,Dangerous,"This pan is dangerously unbalanced, especially when it sits on certain kinds of burners. If you have a gas stove and your burners have open spaces in the grillwork (most do) the pan can (and will) tip very easily. I just spilled tomato sauce down the front of the stove using this pan. Be careful!"
+8954,1,I'll Try Another Brand Next Time,This clock was delivered in May of '08. It stopped working before the end of August.
+8955,1,Let this CD burn..literally.,"People like Usher disapoint me, in that in certain lyrics they can be Mr.Wonderful, and in others they can be a total pig. Whoever thinks Usher actually MEANS any of the romatic things he says is quite foolish.This album is another fine example of what's wrong with out music industry. Don't even consider buying it. The lyrics are bad, the vocalss are bad, and he doesn't need the money."
+8956,1,Stopped working after the first day!,"I bought two of these fish as a special treat for my son, who had been begging for them. I read the directions carefully, making sure the battery compartment was sealed when I screwed it on. Both fish worked great for the first day, but wouldn't work again after. I put new batteries in and they still wouldn't work. It seems as though water got into the compartment, which is poorly designed and not leak-proof.So, I returned both fish to the store and bought the ""Finding Nemo: Disney Swimming Dory"" and ""Finding Nemo: Disney Swimming Nemo"" instead. I recommend them highly; the battery compartment is sealed and well-designed, the fish are very cute, and they swim even faster than the Rainbow Reef fish! A real hit at the pool!"
+8957,2,she's great love to see her sing and watch her videos,"I saw Shania in concert in B'ham Al she was great wish I could see her again I have all three cd's behind the music tape,live in concert, also her video tape of the woman in me she brings more fans to country music Kathy"
+8958,2,nothing to dislike - perfect sink,"Double check your sizes - this is the large one. (there are three different ones) It's what we wanted, but letting folks know to double check."
+8959,2,Great Tale !,"Cimorene was a bit out of line compared to her other sisters. Although she was pretty enough, she acted as UN-princesslike as she could. Cimorene found all of her regular lessons extremely boring and she was more interested in fencing, magic, and cooking. All three of which her parents banned.Then her parents forced her to wed Prince Therandil.(Cimorene said, she would rather be eaten whole by a dragon) So Cimorene ran away. Guess what she found? Dragons! Cimorene became Kazul's (the lady dragon) princess and found her new life much more fitting. Cimorene gets new friends, new fiends, and a cunning mystery to solve."
+8960,1,Complete Dried UP,"My first bottle arrived with a loose lid. The paint was a solid mass. Amazon shipped a replacement, the replacement also had a loose lid and was also a solid blob. If you need this paint, you need to shop elsewhere."
+8961,1,Easy listening McCartney.,"If you're expecting some great McCartney music here you won't find it. This is an easy listening album. Not that interesting. Pretty repetitive. It is better than the first Fireman album, but still I expect a little more from something McCartney is associated with."
+8962,1,Not Healing for Me!,"not his best effort...poorly written and nothing new, as far as i was concerned, having read two of his other books. and really don't like the emphasis on anti-depressants. never felt like he got his point across, as being anything different from what i've read, i.e. depression and anxiety are caused in the brain...and tah dah...here are some meds for it. so what?"
+8963,1,"Nice book, lousy recipes","I cannot recommend this cookbook. Several of the recipes contain errors -- six cups of split peas are called for in the Minted Split Pea Soup recipe, with 8 cups vegetable stock! Needless to say, this turned out more like fast-setting concrete than soup -- I had to add another 20+ cups of broth before achieving a reasonable consistency. And I've found almost every recipe woefully under-spiced -- I had to double the spices in the Ash and Sarah's Chai Tea before I could taste anything. It's a shame -- the food photos and recipe layout are great -- if only the recipes had lived up to the quality of the rest of the book."
+8964,1,Problems for tender feet,"When the slippers arrived I had socks on. I tried the slippers and they fit fine and felt great. then I started walking around and could feel somthing under my heel. It was the label that is made of rough cloth and heavily stitched in both slippers. The stiching was so heavy and deep that removing the labels took a sharp razor knife and ten minutes per slipper. OK now no lump under my heel. Then later the socks come off and the not so soft leather that hems the entire opening starts rubing my ankles.I did not expect to need socks while wearing slippers. The design is nice, the trim material down right dumbin my opinion. slippers should be soft where ever they contact your skin."
+8965,1,Worst microwave oven ever!!! Don't buy it.,"This is the worst microwave oven I ever used, quality wise and customer service wise.It didn't work out of the box. The tray keeped turning while the door was open. I had to press the ""Power"" botton to stop it (strange!). More ridiculous thing was that when I pressed any number, it would run the whole minutes. For example, when I pressed ""5"", it started to run 5 minutes. So it didn't allow me to choose any time longer than 10 minutes, because when I pressed ""1"", it already started its 1 min run.The customer service is even worse. The guy tried to persuade me that the oven was designed to run the way it was. But he could not figure out how to set up a 15-minute run. Worst part was that I would have to pay a $15 shipping to get this defective oven replaced!In conclusion, don't buy this item unless you want to enjoy some very weird (and rare) oven and the horrible microwave."
+8966,2,Great movie !,"It makes you wonder hoe many of the old professional wrestlers are out there living this same kind of life. Marica Tomey is very hot in this, if nothing else you must check it out just for that."
+8967,2,Don't buy a lime juicer,"I bought this thinking that I can use it not only for lemons, but for limes as well and I was not wrong at all. It amazes me to see some people using lime squeezers - I just don't understand the logic. In fact, I've only used it for limes and it works perfectly well.In all, this thing works perfectly."
+8968,2,A Page Turner you won't want to put down...,"Never having read a William Diehl novel, I regret waiting so long to read this book. You are pulled into the pages by the characters and events, and held there in suspense by this richly written book. Whether the time period was set in the early 1900's or in 1945, this book holds your attention - be prepared to read this nonstop! You won't want to put it down."
+8969,2,"Fast Delivery, Great Condition",The DVD arrived with just a couple days and was in the exact condition described. I would definitely buy from these guys again!
+8970,1,Captive,"One word - AWEFUL. So aweful in fact that having forced myself to watch the entire film I then threw it in the trash. The one thing that could have really shone in this dire film was Oliver Reeds performance, who had so little screen time, that he may have not have bothered to have been featured at all. Poor guy. Other than the good grace of Oliver Reed's brief presence, it had a pointless plot, useless acting; poor film quality and a non-sensical ending. A waste of time and money."
+8971,2,The 1970's...,"I bought this album sometime in the late 70's. I had heard something from this band late one night on the radio.. back when radio was a place where you could hear new and different types of music without the station being concerned if liked every tune they played.. anyway, I got around to buying one of their albums although not the one I heard that night. The album has some decent stuff.. but it's masterpiece is an absolutely stunning rendition of Joni Mitchels ""Stange New Flesh"". The band is very tight and the lead vocals have a soulful and gritty feel. The price is worth just having that one tune."
+8972,2,Amazon boo boo for the replacement evaporative wick,"Since I live in the middle of nowhere on the Cumberland Plateau in Tennessee, I orderd a replacement evaporative wick so I don't have a crisis when the time to replace happens. The present Amazon product description says a replacment wick #1041 will work, but it only kinda does. One has to use duct tape or glue to remanufacture it to replace what came with the unit. I called the vendor, and the person I spoke with said the proper replacement wick was #1045, which I ordered through the vendor. Then I called Amazon customer service to try correct the error in the present advertising, hopefully to help others avoid my aggrevation. By customer reviews, I see at least one other has had the same aggrevation. Anyway, good luck."
+8973,1,"THIS ""WRITER"" WILL NEVER MAKE ANY MONEY","Another collection of actionless short stories by yet another tenured academic ""writer."" When will these academic authors learn that in order to make money as writers they must first tell intelligent, meaningful, gripping, action-packed stories? Don't look for a novel from Miss Marquart--she hasn't got the range. Something needs to happen in a story--an abortion, a fight, an accident--SOMETHING. Nothing happens here; the musicians go from town to town. Even more distressing is the author's obvious complexes and hatreds relating to men. Pass this one by!"
+8974,2,Walker can write,"I have had to write some fiction for college classes and was reading a lot of short stories to get an idea of what is out there. Alice Walker is among the best writers ever, able to experiment and work with different styles. I could not put this book down."
+8975,2,GOOD READ,"The book is good. Too much detail in some areas, but overall good read for someone interested in Lewis an his life."
+8976,2,Fixed my truck!,"Was swapping out belts like crazy, and they would inevitably start squeeling. I didn't notice a problem with the tensioner, but I was out of options and it took care of it for me!Fit my '99 Dodge Durango (318) perfectly."
+8977,2,This Mouse is Great!!,"I bought this mouse because I couldn't stand having to deal with the mice with the ball in them. They were jumpy, needed a mouse pad, and were quick in needing to be cleaned out. After using this mouse for the first few minutes I couldn't believe how easy this onw worked across the computer screen. I didn't need a mousepad, and I liked the scroll wheel especially when right college reports and side buttons which I use for the back and forward buttons on the Internet. It's made using the computer a much better experience and the best part is that it doesn't stick when you are trying to move it slow. If you are looking for a great mouse, throw away the mouse you have and you will not be dissappointed."
+8978,1,I blame Atlantic,"Fresh out of the plastic wrap, my copy is unplayable. It will not play on any CD player I own. This is probably due to some ridiculous DMCA feature on he disc. Be careful, while Mingus is the man, Atlantic is part of WEA, who apparently doesn't care if you use their products or not.. just as long as they can wage their absurd war on copyright infringement."
+8979,2,Good mystery.,"An atypical hero, but interesting character. Good mystery, took a little while to figure it out. Worth your while for a light read."
+8980,2,Great speaker!,"I was looking for quality speakers for my Ipod that could charge it and also came with a remote, for $100 or less. This speaker fit all the criteria to a ""T"". I strongly recommend these speakers to someone interested in the above criteria."
+8981,1,Saw it and I'll pass!!,"I was hoping that this 3rd movie would be better than number 2, but it's long and boring......my advise is just stick with the first one as that one was a really good movie.Too bad 2 & 3 sucked, oh well live and learn!"
+8982,2,Texasabilene,"The item (clubhouse games)is excellent even though used. I have noproblem with it.I do however have a problem with the company Texasabilene. When you are selling a product, you should be professional. We had to wait more than double the time because we were sent a game case with nothing in it. It took some time to be sent the game finally and we are also in Texas."
+8983,2,nice little watch...surprisingly durable.,"Overall a great little watch for the Lego fans. Only reason i didnt give 5 stars is because I thought the picture doesnt represent the finished product completely...it only comes with as it only comes with a few black and white links, and a bunch of other links(blue, red, green). Also, cant remove the dial to install the logo dial. Still, a good watch for $25"
+8984,2,Saw Carol Burnett on tv promoting this DVD,"I had to have it. I'm a huge Carol Burnett fan. Watching the show reminds me of my childhood. As long as the Gone with the Wind skit was on here, I had to get it."
+8985,1,DIRE,What a pile of Crap! Old has beens.About as heavy as feathers.Retire with your mega bucks and leave metal to the newer and more imaginative bands.I cant believe people used to fight to get ur stuff off Napster what a WASTE of useful internet time.THIS ALBUM [is waste.]
+8986,2,This Product is Well Worth the Money!,"This product is well worth the money. I love it! Bought it 6 months ago and has worked perfectly. The programming took me a few minutes to get the hang of it, but as long as you read the directions, the set-up can be done in just a few minutes. Once programmed, it does it's thing. Feeds my cat 3 times a day and he no longer wakes me up at 5 am for his breakfast. Been working on the same batteries for 6 months now, and still haven't had to change them. I am very pleased with this feeder and would recommend it to anyone!!!"
+8987,1,What is this crap,This is one of the worse wrestling games I have ever played. Look at the graphics. The blood looks so stupid. Im sorry to say this but all wrestlemania games stink. wwe smackdown 5 is 100 times better than this crap.
+8988,1,Murderd movie,"In a word - underwhelmed. The film had potential and failed to deliver in the writing, directing, and most disappointing the acting. Wood demonstrated a bit of growth in ""Green Street Hooligans"" and I was looking forward to seeing if he could demonstrate some true dramatic chops. His performance felt flat, forced, and meandering. Hurt's performance was perfunctory at best and felt as if he just dusted off elements of ""Douglas Benoit"" with far less skill or passion. Watling and Cox characters were predictable and cliché. All the potential for character arc and story just failed to make it to the screen. Even the Oxbridge canvas failed to hold interest. Skip this one."
+8989,1,"Save you money, remastered edition coming out in June, 2001.","For those of you thinking about getting this set, save your money. This boxed set was rushed and poorly done. The new remastered editions come out in June 2001."
+8990,2,Absolutely great tripod for movie camera,"excellent and cheap...panning acts almost like the $400+ tripods for movie cameras...and the controls in the handle add to the convenience and control of ""shaky"" movement...sold...stable...tall...worth the price"
+8991,1,Worst movie I've ever seen,"The movie one hour photo seemed an interesting film to me so i rent it, but then wow! What is that?Its one of the worst movies i have seen this year, the plot goes on and on so slow and eventually when you finish watching the movie you simply ask yourself: WHY? Does it really worth 90 minutes of your life?Well i did not seem to think so; Williams gave a nice performance but nothing more.Honestly, i expected much better."
+8992,1,"I thought I loved it, but now I hate it!","I got my Kindle Wireless Reading Device, 3G, 6"" Display, White - 2nd Generation in Dec. 2009 and added a few books now and then - to total 39 including the Kindle guide. I initially thought I liked it, but it soon started acting up - like it wouldn't shut off and I was continually having to charge it. Then it wouldn't turn on, even fully charged unless I plugged it into an electrical socket. Next, it would not keep track of pages read in the books I purchased, so I would have to forward page through big chunks of books to get back to where I had left off reading - and believe me that is time consuming and maddening! Now it won't even download some books I have purchased. One book just disappeared and would not reload from the amazon kindle web site. I am getting really p.o'ed with the thing and ready to throw it in the trash! Would I buy another one? - heck no!"
+8993,1,Too strong for my door,Opening resistance on this item is too strong. I did not install it for fear that it would damage my door. I had to to purchase another (adjustable) model at my local big box store.
+8994,2,Everything as expected at a great price,"Without going into a movie review, as there are better locations for that, I enjoy this move.In addition, the product was shipped promptly, arrived in excellent condition and I had no issues with this purchase."
+8995,2,The best SLI board period.,"I own both the Asus Striker Extreme and this EVGA 680i board, and the EVGA is much better. Make sure you have all the current drivers installed. Easy to overclock and very stable."
+8996,1,Must insert the damn CD every time you play,"This game is okay as a timewaster between emails, but even after you install it you'll have to locate and insert the CD every time you play. Too bad for you if you have other projects that require the CD drive. Very annoying to find this out after paying $20.00 for what I thought would be a fully functional game."
+8997,2,Why still not on CD?!,"Yes, WHY hasn't it been put on CD yet? I, too, look every year hopeful. I have the vinyl, but no way to put on CD. This would be a HUGE seller! Why hasn't anyone done anything about his yet?"
+8998,2,Joe rocks again,"Once again, Mr Satriani shows why he is a guitar teacher as well as performer. Every track has licks you wish you could go back and listen to in slow motion-a hundred times. I can see him schooling the younger guys that have come in the last ten to twenty years-Vai, Shepherd-and showing them the way (which they have done successfully as well) to make the instrument sing-to make the instrument so very listenable. Having seen the G3 tour a couple of times, I marvel at the way these songs are reproduced live sometimes more than the way they are done in the studio. The album is a must have for any guitar enthusiast."
+8999,2,Monica Has Done It Again!!,"I'm a very tough music critic and Monica's album is the BOMB!!!! I especially like the way how she out sings that no tatented tramp Brandy in the song ""The Boy Is Mine"". Buy this Album It is worth it!!!!!"
+9000,1,Jewish Cooking Made Slim,Very disappointed...Thought I was ordering a book with a different title...was not cost-effective for me to return.
+9001,1,Young Buck Your So Awesome,"Yes!!! One of my favorite cd's to take a nice big dump on, you know when you can't get through a whole album because you cant understand what someone is talking about is just great. Its so hard to listen to this shi t because I don't speak Young Buck too well. Im planning on one day to punch him in his terrible gold teeth, what a ass hole hes 50's bitc h."
+9002,2,Quick! Read this! Pleasantly diverting and therapeutic,"I loved this book, found it therapeutic in fact. There's a certain relief that comes with diagnosing the causes of stress and being able to step away from a feeling state (frazzled panic for example) to look at an issue intellectually. This book, in a fairly, light breezy way, looks at how we experience time differently than our ancestors. I found it very grounding. And I've stopped pushing elevator ""close door"" buttons."
+9003,2,This is mystery verging on literary fiction....,"I'm currently reading Steven Gannon's KANE and it reminded me of Sander's The First Deadly Sin... so I raced to Amazon to have it downloaded to my KINDLE Paperwhite...and it's NOT in KINDLE format yet!!What? Heads up Amazon! This is a classic of modern mystery writing!In the meantime, Gannon's KANE is in Kindle format... and it displays much of the nuance, layering, skill in characterization... that Sanders did in the kickoff volumefor his DEADLY SINS series...I read every single book in the Deadly Sins series & already know I'll be reading all of the KANE books by Gannon as well."
+9004,2,Pretty cool,"I have never used a transfer software before, but this was pretty simple to use. I have already transfered 2 movies to DVD and it is just like owning the real thing. I also like the audio transfer feture. I would recomend this product"
+9005,2,Good music,Good travel music. When randomly incorporated with a wide variety of other music this album's lively music is a great way to liven up a long drive.
+9006,2,A little bit different,"Sandra Cisneros uses different ways to express her feelings.Those words were indirect,they need you to feel them, to think them deeply.I like the way she talks about herself.Also,she uses some scenery to show us her feelings. She wrote about those women's lives,especially those women who married.Esperanza,this character spends her whole life in the same place that she doesn't like.However, she learned too many things from other people, those who spend their lives waiting, waiting someone to change their lives.Although Esperanza's life never changes,she is free.She is different from others.That's how she is.Also,something I feel the same as Esperanza. I like this book anyway.I like the picture on the front cover because it show us something about women, the sad women. For me, I guess that Esperanza won't leave Mango Street.She belongs there,forever."
+9007,1,I should have gone to bed..,"I looked forward to this movie like a little kid waiting for Christmas, but, it turned out to be one of the worse movies I've ever seen. Spielberg should go back to the beach or just try to get the home movies he did when he was a kid, in the theaters.A.I. Left you waiting for the end, and 2 hours after you watch it your still wondering why did I waste my time, when there was a nice re-run of MASH on the FOX network. The movie A.I. is a poor excuse for a movie. Spielberg should have walked away from this one. The guy died, that's fine, but, Steven, it was his idea, not your's. You should have run the other way. You wasted my time, money, and a few brain cells in watching this thing called intertainment. You just can't believe you watched it. There was a stop botton on my DVD, I wish I would have pushed it after about a half an hour. It's not what you'd call a feel good movie, it's a CAN'T believe I bought it movie. PLEASE SAVE YOUR SELF AND PASS ON THIS ONE!!!!!!!"
+9008,1,Painful Horror,"Along with your precious time, this bottom-of-the-barrel Canadian production wastes the presence of John Cassavetes. Even John Ireland deserves better than exploitative rubbish. ""The Incubus"" (1982) is recommended only for the most indiscriminate horror fan."
+9009,1,Very disappointing,"Having recently finished the Cooper novel, I looked forward with anticipation to watching this film version of ""The Last of the Mohicans."" What a mistake that was, because this movie is lacking in several areas. Foremost, for me, was the fact that the film strayed very far away from the plot and storyline of the original. Not only were the fates of the characters changed dramatically, but a completely new character was created for this film. Needless to say, this was an unwanted surprise.As if that weren't bad enough, the quality of the film itself was rather poor, both audio and video. Spoken words were often either garbled or missing entirely. The film sometimes was spliced or ""shook"" for a few seconds. Taken altogether, it made for an unenjoyable viewing experience.I give this two stars, only because it is so old (1932). But I cannot recommend it."
+9010,1,BAD!! Don't buy IT,This item doesn't even look like the one the picture... It's not the real thing and it's a bootleg one..
+9011,1,Pricing Error?,I have to echo prior comments. I just came to Amazon hoping I could buy candy melts by the case (as they sell many other food items) and pay much less than the $2.99/bag I can in stores locally. There is no way this $6+ price is correct. It says it's for one bag. It can't possibly be correct. Who is going to pay 2-3 more for one bag? I hope this is fixed soon as I'd love a source for these online for less in bulk.
+9012,2,They serve the purpose,They are handy for the protection of my camera screen and other screens for my phone and game boy. It prevents scratching and thats very important.
+9013,2,Worth Buying,"I put this rocker on my registry and was so excited when I got it. I having been using it since I brought my son home. When he was a newborn I put blankets around him to keep secure and he loved to sit in front of the glass door to look outside or watch TV. He is four months now and loves to look at the toys. When he is sleepy, I can put him in it and rock him for his naps. I think this is definately worth the price because you can also use when they get bigger."
+9014,2,Another winner from Julia London,"It seems impossible, but Julia London just keeps getting better and better. This book enchanted me from the very first page. Adrian is a 'dark' hero to savor and yearn over. Lilliana is a delight and determined not to be ignored. Together they fight their way through to happiness and a most satisfying ending. This is one of those books you can't put down, then you are sorry it is over. I can't wait for the next book in this trilogy."
+9015,1,"This is wrong information, I can prove it ! RE: SOS","In the book the following is a quote from,"" With the end of the commercial use of the Morse Code this year, no sailor will ever again send an ""SOS"" signal. Those letters, by the way, stood for nothing. They were chosen because 4 dots, 3 dashes, 4 dots were easy to remember, easy to send, and easy to pick up."" I am a ham operator, and SOS is three dits 3 dahs and 3 dits, NOT 4, 3, 4, Because, 4 dots 3dashes and 4 dots would be HOH, HMMM? Who wrote this again ? Walter Jinright KG4BVD"
+9016,1,Redbox Rental,"This movie was horrible. I'm glad a redbox rental is only $1.00 per night. Do not purchase this movie, it is not worth your time!"
+9017,1,Don't let the 4.5 stars fool you! This is a stinker.,"No plot, cheesy CGI at times, incredibly slow for the first 45 minutes, comical ""evil"" villain, 12.5 samurai with unlimited stamina, etc.It's like one of those bad 80's movie where a few ""good"" guys take out a whole country of bad guys. Then towards the end, on cue, each samurai gets killed off. The final scene is setup between the final showdown of good buy vs bad guy. It's so laughable, I can't believe I wasted my time watching this junk.I don't see how any but drunk teen-aged boys could like this movie."
+9018,2,One of the best movies ever!,"My kids love this movie. Full of classic funny fun, whit and charm, love and chemistry. Doris Day is one of our family's favorite entertainers. We love her for her fine work in almost all of her films. Gordon McRae is great and has such a wonderful talent for singing and acting. Thanks to writers and people in the past for giving us a great film that our whole family can watch over and over again."
+9019,1,Messy with a short cord,I asked for this at Xmas and replaced it today. I've tried living with it for two months but I give up. The simple act of opening it loses grounds everywhere. I selected the Cuisinart with a removable cup to replace it. You can find this one at the Salvation Army.
+9020,2,Nice Bag for Young Athletes,"My 11 yr old daughter uses this for her soccer gear.It is well made and fairly roomy. I like the fact that the ball goes in the net on the side because then she knows when she is leaving a practice/game that she has her ball without having to look inside or assume that she has it. The strap is decent and doesn't dig into your shoulder like a cheap bag.This bag is called the 'small' size, but it could probably hold 3 more balls inside the bag.My only concern is that the net is a tad small. I wish that it was a bit bigger. It holds a size 4 ball snuggly and I haven't tried a 5 yet. I am sure it is made to fit them, but it will be tight.Overall, we like it a lot."
+9021,1,Worked great...for about a year,"I bought this a little over a year ago, used it 5 to 6 times a week to dry my short hair, and kept the dust/lint trap clean regularly. Loved this dryer and it dried my hair quickly. However, after barely a year, suddenly it blew nothing hotter than luke-warm air. I put up with this for a couple of weeks until one day it blew only cold air. Very disappointing, as I'd really liked everything else about this dryer. It's now been replaced with a lesser but more dependable brand until I can find something comparable. Look elsewhere or expect a limited product lifespan."
+9022,1,teaches things you'll have to un-teach later,"Ugh. You'd do best to pick a different book. Not only is this one a measly 6 pages long, but the expressions don't match the words they've chosen--so you're effectively teaching your child incorrect words for a particular expression (nothing like making them unlearn things later!), and, while the editor clearly was intending to include a ""diverse"" set of babies, they ended up putting negative words next to both of the two black babies they included! Nothing like showing your little kiddo a darling black girl and saying ""yucky!"" as you read the text. Puhlease."
+9023,2,Fabulous stuffed animal!,"I love this animal! Snuffles (a.k.a. Willie Bear) is a great gift. I received one of these bears every year for many years, and they are all wonderful!"
+9024,2,Great Product,"Out of all the products that i have tried, silk therapy by biosilk seems to do the perfect job. Helps to defreeze hair without leaving them feeling dirty. Love it."
+9025,2,you can hold the whole world in your hands,"Elegantly, Stephen Mitchell has compiled sublime poetry from the world's sacred traditions in this inspiring collection. In a single reading one can experience the lyrical wisdom of the Bhagavad Gita, paradoxical precision of Chuang-Tzu, enthusiasm of Gerard Manley Hopkins, and the sensuality of Rumi and the Song of Solomon. When poets of the sacred explore the divine, whether as a part of a religious tradition or apart from religious tradition, all rises and all converges. Beauty reigns. This collection invites one to hold the whole world of the sacred in one's hands and savor the mystical beauty of poetry and divinity."
+9026,2,A great Cal Tjader album,"I wanted ""Cal Tjader's Concert By the Sea"" to be released on CD so badly. I have been enjoying my LP copy of this album (Fantasy 3295) for several years. We can all rejoice that some of the best Tjader Fantasy albums are now being reissued. And what a bonus that the trend seems to be putting the contents of two LP releases on one CD. If you buy Blackhawk Nights, Black Orchid, San Francisco Moods, Ritmos Calientes and Monterey Concerts(Live) you'll have the cream of the recordings of Tjader and his greatest groups. As this release of M.C.(Live) shows, Cal Tjader was one of the greates jazz musicians America produced. This is swinging, sophisticated jazz in that 1950's style. The remastered sound is excellent. Put this at the head of your wish list. You'll thank me."
+9027,2,Torque,"Biker Cary Ford is framed by an old rival and biker gang leader for the murder of another gang member who happens to be the brother of Trey (Ice Cube), leader of the most feared biker gang in the country. Ford is now on the run trying to clear his name from the murder with Trey and his gang looking for his blood. The motorcycle scenes are flashy. The choreography of the bike tricks is incredible. Stunts are unbelievable, and entertaining. If you like movies that involve motorcycle riding, you will enjoy this movie."
+9028,2,i love it!,"Becka Norwood had a perfect life till a girl named Honey Perkins jumps out of nowhere and starting to tell everyone in the high school that Honey is Becka's best friend. that's not it! because Becka doesn't even know Honey! from that on Honey starts to copy everything Becka has and does! That not enough, horrible ""accidemts"" starts to happen to Becka's real friends! so what does Honey want? just a best friend? or more? after you finished this book try the continuation of this book, The Best Friend 2."
+9029,1,Poor Quality Home Movie,"As a cruising family, we can relate to the events(positive) and as the techno side of sailing is scant (negative).The viewing offer should be at no charge and we would like a refund."
+9030,1,Take A Nap Instead,"In a moment of self-inflicted irony, Don DeLilo opens Chapter 4 of The Body Artist with ""All these words are wrong"". It happens to be the best sentence in the book because The Body Artist is as disappointing as getting home with an Academy Award-winning movie only to discover that it won't play - and your beer is warm too.This book poses as a short introduction to the work of a decorated, artistically accessible American novelist. Reading it, though, is like trying to sleep in a short-sheeted bed. Four sentences into the first paragraph you find the most beautiful and comfortable sentence imaginable: ""You know more surely who you are on a strong bright day after a storm when the smallest falling leaf is stabbed with self-awareness."" Then it gets uncomfortable and, ultimately, enraging.Don't bother reading this book. Take a long nap instead."
+9031,1,Be Cautious,"This is the consumer version of the Nautilus Treadclimber. It's smaller than the Nautilus machine but otherwise very similar.24 Hour Fitness gyms bought a bunch of these a few years back and introduced them with great fanfare.The good news - excellent workout. Far better than treadmills or ellipticals in my experience.The bad news - they were all recalled after most wore out.Nautilus introduced a new improved version. Again - excellent workout. Sadly, again, most wore out.Hopefully someday Nautilus/Bowflex will solve all the problems and release a version 3 that lasts. Till then, given the ""no labor"" and the short hydraulic warranty I'd be very cautious about purchasing one."
+9032,1,Not famous for good reasons.,Three chapters on doing laundry. 30 chapters on trying to get a story published. Stupid ending. Not worth the while.
+9033,1,A Must To Avoid,"There is nothing much to recommend about this CD, other than the songs ""Sunny Afternoon"" and ""All Day And All Of The Night"". The rest is filler. Sure the price is OK, but the sound is average and if you enjoy this music at all you will find yourself wanting more. Rhino's ""Greatest Hits, Vol. 1"" compilation is a better place to start."
+9034,2,Never received item ordered,"I ordered a deep fryer from Amazon but never received it. Fedex refused to leave the box in front of my home, despite my request to do so. If I don't receive the chair that I just ordered because of Fedex, I will never order from Amazon again."
+9035,1,Not much of an insight,"For an enthusiast who read ""Peopleware .."" and ""Why does software cost so much "" this book is disappointing. It discusses a few relevant points, but never enough content and relevance to be a serious book. Demarco could have limited the subject matter into one cute little chapter of a collection to be published as a book. More importantly the idea of ""Slack"" as it is discussed by the book is not much of a fresh insight. It is coined around the general and obvious concept of a better environment, required for nourishing creativity and quality of 'mind work', which is relaxing and pleasing and not tiring and pressurising."
+9036,1,G-String Better Worn Than Played,"Despite having a nice rich tone, these strings refuse to settle-in and maintain pitch even after 3 weeks, the G string seemingly the worst of the bunch. Just when things seemed stable, the G developed a buzz because of a breakdown at the 3rd fret, signaling its final demise. Some 30 pound monofilament fishing line would be a better choice."
+9037,1,"Liked EC 1, this one . . . oh my","OK, I'll start off saying that Steve Walsh is not near the top of my favorite singers list. I like some Kansas, but it's usually despite Walsh's atics.But despite repeated listenings trying to get it to grow on me (like a fungus?), I can't find anything to recommend this album. I liked much of Age of Impact, but this is nowhere near that one. And Bozzio, Myung and Robertson are always high on my list of artists, but they can't redeem this one.One of the things I dislike most about Gardner's style is heavy repetition of lyric phrases, and ""now, now, now"" stuff. Much more prevalent on this album than AoI, and it grates (as it does on most Magellan albums).As a serious prog-head, I can't recommend this one at all."
+9038,1,Wish it were bigger,"I bought this package primarily because I needed a bag for my brother to handcarry my newly online purchased Nikon D40x and some other accessories in the aircraft from L.A. to the Philippines for me. The battery that came with it made the purchase seem even better since I was going to get a spare anyway. I found out, though, that the bag was too small to carry all my stuff: my D40x with an 18-200 VR lens on it, an extra 10-20mm lens, a flash, a hood and a spare battery. I'd bring it along if I were to abbreviate my gear and carry just the basics. However, I purchased a bigger bag a week after this one arrived."
+9039,2,Great C.D.,"I love this c.d. Nine Days are absolutely great. They have depth and meaning to all their songs and though some people have said that all the songs sound alike, I disagree. So anway, basically like my title says, it's a great c.d."
+9040,2,Much hilarity,"Kenny and Spenny have done it again! Their unique not always politically correct (let's face it, at times totally incorrect in all senses) is always welcome, like a hiccup that recalls an absolutely delicious meal!"
+9041,2,Super Stuff,"My eclectus was very leary first about being sprayed but now tolerates this very well. Her feather condition is greatly improved. She is not a plucker, her feathers just looked rough. I will continue to use this product. Very happy with it. No smell, not greasy. Excellent!"
+9042,2,Just Amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!,If u already experienced it then this movie will forever be your #1 favourite. I cried the whole time during the movie. U just have to watch it.
+9043,1,Don't buy this phone,We upgraded our family plan with 4 of these phones. Three of them are already having problems after only 7 months. One phone is corroded from moisture getting inside the charging area so it won't charge reliably. The phone was never near water. The repair person said sweat or extra humid conditions could have caused this issue. Two of the phones turn off without any reason. This makes it hard to receive calls. One of the phones locks up and won't function until the battery is removed and the phone is reset. I just hope we make it to our two-year deadline before we have to invest in phones again. Very dissappointed.
+9044,1,VIC KNOWS ABOUT HISTORY,ELISABETH I AND THOMAS JEFFERSON THE GREATEST LEADERS IN THE HISTORY OF THE WORLD???? IF SPERANDEO KNOWS ABOUT TRADING THE SAME WAY HE THINKS HE KNOWS ABOUT HISTORY THEN WE ARE BETTER OFF GAMBLING IN LAS VEGAS!!!
+9045,1,I Want Some,"...I want some (or all) of my money back. I can't possibly fathom why Ian Svenonious has been compared to James Brown or Prince. His weak, strangeled vocals are exceedingly irritating- he has no lung power. He sounds like an anemic white guy doing a bad impersonation (karyoke-style) of someone with soul. Make-up is one of a slew of bands expirementing with juxtaposing several seemingly disparate music styles ( in their case psychedelic pop/gospel/R&B- others have claimed that there is punk in there too but I can't find it) for kitsch value. For some bands it works (like early Blues Explosion) but this Make-up doesn't blend and you're left with base face. They are a novelty group that is far too contrived and image concerned to even be amusing. In other words, hipsters will most likely lap this up but be forewarned if you are not just looking for the next buzzword band."
+9046,1,Handloading for Competition Making the Target Bigger.,Zediker praises Dillion and Lee products to much and I prefer RCBS and Redding. Just a matter of opinion! He did have some things of interest but alot I already knew!
+9047,2,THREE DIMENSIONAL NUDE DIMENSIONS!!!,"The Nude Dimension series has got to be the hottest and most sought after dance CD on the market today! It's easy to say that with the mix of smooth house grooves and incredible vocals from the likes of Li'sha and Janet Rushmore! If you're a club head, DJ or just like good house music with sass-appeal, this is the CD for you!"
+9048,1,Are you serious?,"Who didn't do their homework? Open circuit breathing apparatus instead of the closed circuit units used by the SEAL teams? Lines like ""Pictures taken from the USS Arizona"". Last I recall the USS Arizona is sitting at the bottom of Pearl Harbor. '''(*_*)''' This movie really stinks."
+9049,1,Perfectly simple for beginners,"I am an architecture student who is always looking for new ideas on how to present my work graphically. I purchased 'Idea Index' after having read all of the great reviews about the book. I believe it is a perfect reference for beginners who have little experience in the field of graphic design, and also for those who have a penchant for Microsoft clip art.For anyone who is serious about graphic design, consider purchasing something with more substance."
+9050,1,Dumb,I hated this game. it was hard to figure out how to play. I never liked it. it is an extremely stupid game. dont buy it. save yourselves.
+9051,2,Clear and concise,"This book is very clearly written and provides in-depth information about the 49th Vibrational Technique, a way to heal using color and light.It is one of the only books out there, that I am aware of, that actually has instructions for using the processes expressed.I have not yet tried the technique, but do plan to in the near future."
+9052,1,Keyboard Drawer,"After a few months of light use, the screws fell out, jamming the sliding track. Had to completely disassemble and reassemble product. Would recommend using Locktite when putting this together. This unit is a little flimsy, bends easily when using the mouse, causing a flex that probably caused the screws to loosen."
+9053,1,don't believe the hype,"OK So I wanted to like Ani, but my first listen to this album made me want to give her a prozac and tell her life will be ok. She sounds to angry and can't sing. Her band plays well though. I liked #5 though. I guess I would have to listen to it a few times before I fall for her. Either that or completely avoid her."
+9054,1,"The Bangles ""Manic Monday"" rip-off!","She has an ok voice, but I've heard better. This song could've had a chance for hit potential if it wasn't for the fact that the verses in this song are completely ripped off The Bangles' hit ""Manic Monday"", hence two stars for this song. The Graham Stack remix is nice though."
+9055,1,DO NOT PUT IN THE DISHWASHER!,"I never write reviews but these are just junk. After 1 dishwashing (no heated dry), they crack at the bottom and lose all use."
+9056,2,I love these socks!,These socks are great! They keep my feet nice and dry when I workout; not so much as a drop of sweat! Nice! I also love these socks because the fabric doesn't pile even after several washing and years of usage. Love 'em!
+9057,2,"MUST BUY, you will NEVER find a better kosher marshmallow","We've tried them all, thrown away tons, shipped in many, stumbled across many at kosher markets, and we've ALWAYS come up w/ the same opinion....you simply cannot beat Paskesz Marshmallows at all. These are not just kosher, but are soft, yummy, correct texture, and do EXCELLENT over Sukkot campfires! BUY and you won't be dissapointed, guaranteed. There is no other option (we've tried many times!).Thank you Paskesz!"
+9058,2,Great Old Music,"If you like the true OLD R & R, you'll love this one. Dee hit it big with ""Raindrops"" and ""Nobody But You."" The other songs lack the exposure, but it's all good."
+9059,1,Not as good as I expected,"GW Battlefield of Pacifists was too rushed and fast paced. The storyline didn't really fit the characters.The whole 1x2 thing was really non-existant. When did they rent a motel room? Duo encouraged Heero and Relena's relationship several times and even warned that if Heero didn't keep in contact with her she'd forget him.Heero was rude to Relena-and for Relena fans, she wasn't in it hardly at all.Wufei was also out of character-Heero once said in Endless Waltz that false fronts were not his style, and that is exactly what he did when asking Lady Une about the Scorpio. The Wufei in this book kinda went with the flow just to see how things would work out for his entertainment.I wouldn't recommend for hard core GW fans to read this book unless they just want a different view of GW."
+9060,1,Too Heavy,"These guys are really bad at making heavy music. They could have stuck to their Nu-Metal filled Self Titled CD. I respect their descision for trying to get off MTV, and they did it well, but they really can't make good hardcore music. Face it people SLIPKNOT ARE NU-METAL. I don't like it when people call Slipknot Heavy Metal, it's wrong. Slayer, Chimaira, Superjoint Ritual...that's real, heavy, good music. I like some songs on Iowa, 'Gently' 'Everything Ends'...that's about it."
+9061,2,Just the Backup needed for African Sanctus,"I sent for this CD because I thought it WAS African Sanctus. But of course it is the collection of taped songs and sounds which were used as the ""ethnic"" parts of the composition. I think they are even more beautiful listened to as pieces standing on their own merit. In the final form of the Christian Mass, these pieces are made to play different parts than they would on their own, and it is a ""freeing"" experience to hear them this way. The collection is lovely, exciting, and moving; I live in Cairo, Egypt most of the time, and yet it is difficult to find Egyptian music as varied as this on the local radio."
+9062,1,Deja Vu All Over Again,"Symptomatic is a new novel about being biracial in America. It is the second novel on that same theme by author Danzy Senna. That previous work, Caucasia was heavily praised by critics. Unfortunately, Symptomatic does not break new ground in the biracial theme. If anything, it reads like a rewrite of Caucasia.As such, Symptomatic is a frustrating book for those who believed that Senna would be a major new voice on America's literary landscape."
+9063,2,"Less Bongos, more Melodies","Although the drummer has removed himself from the bongos, they are still present in some songs and the drums are essential to all songs they are in. The melodic style that has characterized Guster for so long continues, with soft and smooth songs that boil over into hot and agressive jams. This CD is a real work that exemplifies why they have been around for so long: They have musical skills that rival anyone out there. It's a shame that they aren't a blink 182 rip off, or sound like linkin park or else they would get played on the radio more. Sarcasm aside, they sound like no top 40 group because they have their own sound and it is hard to dismiss. I do think it's different from their earlier work, but I don't think that's a bad thing, you still find yourself singing along and nodding your head. They are layered and deep, you just can't listen on the surface and expect to get anything from that."
+9064,2,As good as Bionicle: Legend Reborn,"As good as Bionicle: Legend Reborn by the same creative team. These guys really know how to make a fast paced, interesting, kid friendly film. The students at my school were all a buzz about it. These 1st and 2nd graders have already watched it about 4 or 5 times and it's only been out since Tuesday. Hey Lego! you've got a good thing going with this team. Thanks"
+9065,2,Recovery Meditations,"Eric points out in short, concisely written meditations the many slippery places, things and people that I have become addicted to or that trigger my relapses. In my case, isn't wanting more money, bigger homes, nicer cars... a good thing? When do I have enough? When am I ok? Mr. Greene asks me examine this.I meet my addictions on page after page. Sometimes laughing, sometimes crying, somtimes raging and sometimes denying! But everytime I react strongly, Eric asks me examine the issue with strength, courage and honesty.I recommend Mr. Greene's book for all recovery addicts who want more then cessation of our obsession and seek serenity and joy."
+9066,2,great pocket camera,My wife always wanted small camera in her bag. and i havent found anything better than sony. i think this camera is great for snapshots and it has all features. i have sony camcorder with memory stick too so its card can be handy.and size matters...
+9067,2,Two Wonderful Years,"By far this is the greatest heater I have used thus far. The one I had (which died a week ago) stayed in my bathroom most of the time and kept my son and I extremely warm. When left on overnight in a closed room sleeping, we would wake up sweating.Being in a bathroom and having a 5 year old, it had water sprayed on it, it had been peed on (gross I know) and so much more but it still lasted 2 winters! I will be purchasing another one and now that my son is older I have no doubt that this new one will last at least 5 years."
+9068,2,I will love again,"Lara Fabian's ""I Will Love Again"" is almost a Cher sound-alike, but is lively, club-style, dance music, that blends the distinctive use of piano and other acoutical instruments to a crescendo that really is pleasant to listen and jam to. It starts off kind of slow, but builds passionately and ebbs and flows throughout the song, with a beat that one can steadily groove to on the dance floor without losing energy. A very good addition to one's dance collection for 2009, even though it's been around prior.Artley Edwards, Cleveland Heights, Ohio, USA."
+9069,1,Timberjack,"The tool for the intended purpose is excellent, however the point on the pivoting hook is so blunt that it does not penetrate the timebr you are trying to lift."
+9070,1,Weak reception,"Like one of the reviewers of a similar product from Koss, I live in Seattle. Maybe we're doomed by our hills, but I've had lots of trouble with static using this radio. I like other aspects of it, especially the programmable buttons, although it is too easy to bump the button that switches the band between AM and FM."
+9071,2,The CD Is Far From Trash,"""White Trash Lullabies"" is Spank The Monkey's 2nd cd. If I have to use only one word to sum up the cd, it'd be ROCKS! Straight out of Lafayette, LA, I've watched this band grow. They were awesome in the beginning and only get better and better. ""White Trash Lullabies"" is proof of their awesome talent, which has carried over to ""3"", the third cd, and you want it, too! Spank The Monkey is overall an awesome rock band, but they are diversified at the same time. ""White Trash Lullabies"" is proof of that and of how well they can put it all together. This cd is a must have cd. ""Breathe"" deserves a rock award! It has been heard world-wide. ""One and Only One"", written for a child is heart clinching. I could go on and on about the vast greatness of this cd. Add it to your collection."
+9072,1,More Marketing Than Good Information,"There is no new information here that is worth paying for. I could not find anything that has not been said in countless other investment books. What a waste of time! Such trite sayings as ""Keep it simple"" and ""If it's on your ass, it's not an asset"" are insulting to readers like me who look for good quality information about how to ivest their money. It is sad that publishers juice up books like this with cure all catch phrases that are expressed as investement advice. Save your money!"
+9073,1,Ruined in Shipping,DO NOT order these items from Amazon. I've twice ordered four spindles and the box comes with no padding and many ruined discs. The plastic covers have been shattered and the main rod to hold all the discs together is disconnected from the base. This terrible shipping method makes many discs unusable. Amazon should know better!
+9074,2,Couldn't Put it Down CORRECTION,"I have just fwded a review on 'Lord of Scoundrels' by Loretta Chase and realize I have included some incorrect information can U please delete the following: my introduction to Loretta Chase was ""The Hunting Season' a 2 story novella with Cathy Maxwell"" this information is incorrect. It should read 'my introduction to Loretta Chase was a four story book called Three Weddings and a Kiss - Ms Chase's story 'The Mad Earl' was superb!"
+9075,1,Does not work on most PCs do not buy for PC,"Been working for hours to get this thing to work. Patches, blogs etc. On the blogs, found MANY people are having the same problem I am. After a REALLY long install process it just doesn't work. You get an error. After some hunting around online you find a patch. It stops the error, but unfortunately simply NOTHING happens when you click play. reinstalled, etc etc. Its broken. They released a game that just doesn't work on Windows 7 and said it did. Very annoying. I am sure there are some flukes where it has worked but essentially it is a paperweight."
+9076,2,Very entertaining,"My eight-year-old daughter and I enjoyed the movie very much. In fact, she wanted to watch it again immediately. Sweet plot and interesting variety of characters. Would highly recommend."
+9077,1,great purchase,I purchased the bible as a birthday gift for someone who now does not want to wear glasses. They are so happy with the large print. Only friends cans do stuff like this.
+9078,1,Horrible and scary,"I hated this record when I was little. Every song was about people being mean to each other, as far as I remember. The worst song on it was Girl Land, I think that was the name of it. Anyway, that song talked about how in Boy Land you were allowed play sports and have fun and whatnot, but in Girl Land you had to stay inside and play with dolls and sew and stuff. The verse about Girl Land was even accompanied by scary music. Every time the Girl Land song came on I used to panic and hide under the table, becuase I was scared that someone was going to capture me and take me there. I think I was extremelly psychologically damaged by that song. The rest of the record was pretty crappy and scary as well."
+9079,1,JUST OK,"The music is cool! But those vocals are horrible! Man with some killer singing, I would love It! song writing is cool."
+9080,2,its ok,"this is queen latifah in a very different stage on what we used to see her...really I like her singing R&B; classics, but rappin were what made her famous and that's something we cannot forgetbut it's veeery goood!!"
+9081,1,Full of untruths. I am a decent of the Sanks Family. WE ALWAYS KNEW of SANKSVILLE. We grew up there. LIES.,THE AUTHOR IMPLIED THAT SANKSVILLE WAS SOME LOST CITY.. IT MADE MY BLOOD BOIL; CALLING THE PUBLISHER AND OTHER FAMILY MEMBERS.
+9082,1,green coffee extract,I found I paid a lot of money for shipping on something that did nothing for me. And that's after taking 2 bottles over 2 months.
+9083,2,"Great price, great quality",This watch strap looks like it could cost $40 easily and I bought it for under $6. It arrived quickly and looks fantastic. I had an Orvis watch and the strap that came with it was too long for my wrist. I had it on the last notch and it was still loose. I ordered this one as a replacement. A. It was cheap. B. It looks great. C. It fits great. I have small wrists and I wear it on the third to last notch.
+9084,2,"Pandas, Pandas Everywhere","Take one tube of pandas, add another product jungle themed environmental toy, and you have the great makings of panda paradise for the little one. Saw a similar concept in another toy magazine but was outrageously priced. Amazon came to the rescue with this great little product. Each animal strikes a different pose and no two are alike. Daughter (3 yrs) love to play with these guys and if I can coral them at night... eay pick-up and storage into a tupperware container.PROS: durable; multiple animals; each with unique pose; nice paint scheme on each animal; can be used in different play settings (I used Animal Plant products)CONS: They tend to escape their holding pen and come under my feet... UUUgghh darn panda!Well recommended"
+9085,1,Everything The World Believes about the Bible...,"I bought this book tbinking that it would be an easy to read companion to the Bible... in reality, it was basically a refutation to the Word. Mr. Davis spent a great deal of time and energy to offer a naturalistic opposing argument to The Word of God. He defends Darwin, essentially calls most of the Old Testament ""myth,"" and states clearly that the New Testament was written by ""unknown jewish-Christians"" with second hand information. This is the converse ""Case for Faith,"" world view that spends every page flirting with ridicule of Christ followers.If you are a Chrsitian, skip this one. If you are a seeker, look for Lee Strobel's ""Case for Christ"" or ""Case for a Creator."" Both discuss many of the same issues without the jaded world view."
+9086,2,Vintage Hank Jones,"Solo piano and Hank Jones-Need I say more?. Jones's playing is without pretence and true to the essence of musicianship. Listen to his wonderful voicings layered with his trade mark bop runs. My favourite is his solo on Toots Thielemann's waltz ""Bluesette"". A fantastic album."
+9087,2,A gem!,"This easy to read but hard to forget little book is a gem. It creatively and successfully combines biography, psychology, insights into basketball from the point of view of a player in the legendary UCLA teams of the early 70's, a fresh insider's view of the world of television, and sound management principles which also happen to apply remarkably well to life in general, all told in a breezy, engaging, direct style which makes it difficult to put down. I learned much more than I had expected from it and it left me with much to think about. Be quick to buy this book but don't hurry reading it ... and re-reading it."
+9088,2,Impressed with this newcomer - Jolof Groove,"This CD is really groovin'! A good mix of different musical styles. Really enjoyed the Senegalese percussion, and musicality of the guitarist and singer. This album reminded me of Sting and Peter Gabriel, particularly the songs ""Water"" and ""So the Story Goes"" - but with a whole new twist! I would recommend this CD to any listener no matter what your musical taste, Jolof Groove is definitely the answer!! Can't wait to hear them live and see what new ""grooves"" they come up with!"
+9089,1,assinine design,"This is HORRIBLE. First of all, what sort of safety product comes with no installation or use instructions? I'm smart, but that doesn't mean I automatically know how to install every product ever manufactured to manufacturer's specifications. Secondly, unless the front of the bowl of your toilet is flat (perhaps a cube-shaped bowl?), the adhesive will not stick to enough of the bowl to make the item secure. As other toilet parts also tend to curve (for example, a two flat pieces of adhesive are supposed to adhere to either side of your toilet lid, but the lids are often concave, so it's difficult to get a secure fit."
+9090,1,Stupid movie,"It is a very stupid movie, no depth into it, no meaning at all to the movie, very stupid story."
+9091,1,Catch any other version,"I'll just say ""amen"" to all the other reviews that rate this lowly. I'd much rather have a version that steals songs from Pinafore and Ruddigore (Ronstadt/Kline et. al.)!"
+9092,1,Needs More Work,"Lane and Gregg's book is nice if you want something to carry around everywhere you go, but it is poorly edited and/or poorly researched (for instance, Herman Webster Mudgett was hung on May 7th, not May 27th). There is also too much of an emphasis on murderers whom I wouldn't immediately title ""serial killers,"" such as Adolfo Constanzo and Dr. Thomas Neill Cream. The writing is about average and overall the Schecter and Newton books are better references for those interested."
+9093,2,Tomtom Docking station,Misplaced the unit which came with our 910 Tomtom. This unit works as designed and intended. A must have if want to update and transfer information to your navigation system.
+9094,2,Enjoyed this!,It has been a while since I really enjoyed a movie - most movies anymore end so stupid but I really enjoyed this movie. I am confused by the people who did not.
+9095,1,Good for young artists only. More serious artists left wanting more.,"This book is good for young artists and young artists only. If you're a kid who just wants to enhance your doodling skills then buy this book! The markers it comes with are water based, cheap, and nothing like what the pros use. If you are over 13 or you are young but want to become a very serious artist do not buy this book! you should buy: How To Draw the Marvel Way by Stan Lee. That book is quite a bit more advanced and involved for drawing your favorite Marvel characters and for creating your own characters."
+9096,1,Revolting Overpriced Collection,"Since you can easily buy these titles individually at a fraction of the price this collection makes no sense for any Disney enthusiast. Five more Disney DVDs could be purchased for the extra price being paid for the cardboard box. And Lion King II Simba's pride does not belong in any Disney set dubbed as ""classic"". Until Lion King and Beauty and the Beast are released Disney has no business releasing a classic DVD collector's set."
+9097,1,Awful,"I've loved this show for so long but they changed showrunners and it shows. Full of plot holes, inconsistencies, the heroes acting out of character so many times... just terrible. The complete destruction of fan favorite Castiel just to keep it ""all about two brothers"", which has gotten so redundant by this point. It makes me sad because I've always loved this show but I guess it's time to let go. I'll just be over here pretending it ended in season 5."
+9098,2,Great book,"I liked this book a lot.It was a very good ghost story.I totally don't feel ripped off for buying it.I don't like part of how it turned out but hey, what can you do?Unlike most reviewers, I don't like to explain a story in a review, it takes away the fun for the potential reader.I like reviews that say: it's worth buying or it isn't worth buying. If it isn't worth buying, give some reasons, if it is worth buying, no reasons needed... SO, here you go:What do you want in a Stephen King book?-a book that makes you stay up to finish it-a book that will scare you a lot(This book meets up with the above requirements, nuff said)"
+9099,2,CASIO,"The product is good enough: i got exactly what I intended to get.In is not expensive, but it looks good and works very good."
+9100,1,Overrated,"The funniest parts of this book are the ones used to get you to buy it, the rest was lame. I found myself yawning. The only good thing about this book is how small it is, the boredom ends in a couple of hours."
+9101,2,"Anyone interested in Ohio history, needs this book in their collection!!","""Ohio Archaeology: An Illustrated Chronicle of Ohio's Ancient Americans..."" is a fantastic book. I have known bits and pieces about Ohio's ancient history, but I wanted to know more. I joined the Archaeological Institute of America, and through them, learned about this book. It is far more than I could have hoped! I have learned so much from Lepper's book. We are so blessed to have some of the world's most incredible ancient sites right here in Ohio. Now that I've learned more, thanks to this book in particular, I want to visit as many of these sites as I can, and when I do, these places will have so much more meaning. I strongly recommend this book to all Ohioans and anyone interested in studying Archaic, Lower Woodlands, Middle Woodlands, and Upper Woodlands peoples who once lived exactly where we live now!!"
+9102,2,Works great but pricy,"I have nothing to say except it works. Within a day or two the entire strip is full of mosquitos and other various insects that are attracted to the SkeeterVac (I have the SV 27 which started immediately and has worked great so far). My only issue is that $10 per strip gets expensive when it has to be replaced weekly (there is no more room for insects to get ""stuck""). At almost $20 per tank of propane, $20-$30 for strips and $10 ($20 for 60 days) it is costing me $2+ per day to run the SkeeterVac after the inital $300 investment. I guess that is just the cost of enjoying the summertime in our backyard."
+9103,2,good book lots of details,this is a good book with lots of details and pictures to aid understanding.and it is definitely worth the money invested.
+9104,2,Surprise inside is a hit with our 8month old,Granson is 8 months and just loves this toy. Has it in his hands all the time. Loves to pull out the hidden objects and hear the crackling from the ears. Chews on it until some of the items are soaked; pulls hard on the peanuts - all have held up to his handling and chewing. He really loves the peanuts on the cords. All items are just the right size for his little hands.
+9105,2,A classy tribute to Lady Day...,"On this enjoyable outing, Chet baker pays tribute to Billie Holiday by playing and singing the ballads that were most associated with her. Baker does a wondeful job on this very fine tribute with some exquisite big band backing."
+9106,1,70's MOR - Incomplete,"Sort of a poor man's Simon and Garfunkel, Seals and Crofts had a string of pleasant, if rarely profound, MOR hit singles during the 1970's. This collection has most of the hits, but ironically is missing the duo's biggest one ""Get Closer."" Granted this collection was first released on vinyl in 1975, one year before ""Get Closer"" hit the charts, but by the time this was issued on CD there was absolutely no reason why it could not have been expanded and updated. Blame sloppy work from Warner Brothers for this oversight. Two and a half stars"
+9107,1,Garbage,"It is a bad, substandard, under founded movie. Poor script. Terrible DVD quality. And it has nothing to do with the first Syborg."
+9108,1,Most Disappointed,"Well, how can I review this product when it still haven't arrived. It has apparently been resent but once again hasn't arrived. Very disappointed!!!!"
+9109,1,horrible fit,The front belt loops are too far apart which makes the front hem droop over. I can't wear tuck in shirts with these pants. JC Penny pants fit better.
+9110,2,Where the heart is...........Opra club,I loved the book as it was like a real life story and it read very fast. It didn't have a zilling plots.I enjoyed and will passon to someone.
+9111,1,Wish it was better,We have been using this car seat for 6 weeks now and I wish I hadn't picked it out because of its name. It's not very comfy for him. I always have trouble opening the canopy without it comming off the back. The straps don't pull out easily and I always have a hard time with my sons arms. I don't have trouble getting it out/in the base. It's very light weight.
+9112,2,"THE ""A"" I NEVER GOT","SOME PEOPLE ARE NOT MATH GENIUSES, THIS WILL MAKE YOU ONE. SPEED UP THE JOB, LOOK LIKE A SCHOLAR, IMPRESS YOUR FRIENDS. THIS IS THE TOOL TO HAVE."
+9113,2,SKIP THE INTRO,OK IVE BEEN A TEENA MARIE FAN FOR A LONG TIME NOW THIS ALBUM IS NOT BAD OUT OF 17 TRACKS I LIKE 7 AND I STILL LIKE HER OTHER ALBUMS BETTER THE VANILLA CHILD HAD ME WAITING FOR THIS ALBUM FOR YEARS AND IT WAS WORTH THE WAIT*** ON THE OTHER HAND I THOUGHT I WAS LISTENING TO SOME WHITE GIRL WHO WAS TRYING TO PUT ON HER BEST BLACENT TEENA YOU ALREADY PROVED YOUR SELF YOU AINT GOT TO BE NOBODY ELSE JUST TO SAY THE SONGS I LIKE ARE THE JAZZY TRACKS LIKE***BABY IM YOUR FIENDHIT ME WHERE I LIVEBLACK RAINI ALSO LIKE THE OLDER SOUNDING SONGS LIKE****MY BODYS HUNGRYIM STILL IN LOVEAND A COUPLE MORE I SAY GET THE ALBUM IT IS A GOOD ONE FOR YOUR COLLECTION
+9114,1,pretty worthless,"if you want funny buy ween, if you want lo-fi pop buy the vaselines, this stuff is just dull. this is one of those rare albums that finds success because some ""cool"" kid told the rest of his kingdom that this album was good and no one dared question his taste. i couldn't make it through 30 seconds of each song. some other bands are immature and funny, these guys are just immature."
+9115,2,Kicks major ass!,"This is a great action packed & fun film to watch, inspiring coming from indie filmmakers, I look fwd to more from these guys!"
+9116,1,dont buy this none fixed up rehash,The blue ray picture is awfull i bought this thinking it was a fixed up remastered picture like the outstanding picture quality jaws was re-done in not by a long shot even i couldnt complain abought that one i so it must have been gooood. i thought the purpose behind all this 100 anniversery stuff was to show off thier movies in a new out standing picture quality all you get with this is a rehash of old stuff the blue ray looks exactly like the dvd and all that is a rehash of a dvd that was out a couple of years ago double secret probation. the extras on this blue ray and dvd where on that one look for that one instead. the picture quality is much better i think it was released in 2003 and a lot cheaper now.
+9117,2,Smaller than expected,"I received this recently as a gift at my baby shower. It is alot smaller than I anticipated. However, I figured I can pack some wipes, diapers and travel size poweder etc. and keep it in the car for an emergency."
+9118,1,He complained the whole time,"First let me say I really enjoyed Bryson's book ""A Walk in the Woods"" about walking the Appalachian trail. Second let me say that for someone who livedin England for 20 years he sure doesn't seem to like the country. I read this book because I am going to England this summer. Bryson basically says there are moments of glory interspered with lots and lots of mediocrity and bad architecture. He hardly talks to anyone, and when he does describe someone it is usually uncomplementary. Frankly I was really surprized. I will still read Bryson, but I really can't recommend this one."
+9119,1,"scratch, scratch, scratch","These sheets are scratchy. So, while they fit my bed nicely, stay wrinkle free and are a beautiful color, I cannot recommend them because they are far from soft. Scratch. Scratch. Scratch."
+9120,1,Bad! Bad! Bad!,"The is film is just plain 'ole bad. I'm with that other reviewer, Paramount is sitting on this film because they can smell the STINK clear back to Hollywood. Another in a long list of recent Paramount stinkeroos.(Stepford Wives Anyone?) Ugh! This was a PAINFUL film. Ugh!! Somebody pass the aspirin. I can't believe the NH guy said Law is the next Harrison Ford(Indiana Jones)? ????????????? Wow!! Special FX don't make a movies great. FX should ADD to the film not MAKE the film. Wait for the DVD and even then, don't buy it. Just rent it when you nothing better to do."
+9121,1,poor fictional work,"This book is a mostly fictional and highly exaggerated account of the author's brief encounters with Jim Morrison. It has much more to do with her own fantasies and wishful thinking than with reality. As to the author's writing style, it is in my opinion very poor and full of cliches.There's also something repulsive in the fact that a woman who professes her undying love for a man is so willing to freely exploit her ""precious memories"" with him in order to get money or whatever. Especially when this man is not here anymore to address the claims she makes about their relationship. In the author's defense one can only say that sadly she's not the only one guilty of that.Bottomline, I do not recommend this book unless you:a) really, really like her other fictional work and need to read all her stuff, andb) have such little interest in Jim Morrison that you do not mind being fed a lot of fantasies and lies about him.For everybody else this book is a waste of time and money."
+9122,1,If you want to get frustrated everytime you place a call...,"This phone worked well for a while, then suddenly, the buttons became impossible to push and dial! I can't tell you how frustrating it is trying to dial a phone number pressing and repressing a digit until it finally registers. Also, there must be a ghost that comes along with the phone; several times a week a caller on the other end says, 'I can't hear you, but someone else'? Why does this happen? Well, this system automatically scans for the best channels during calls, therefore you can momentarily be in on a neighbor's conversation. All the company has advised me to do is maintain a safe distance (50 ft radius) of the base! Why bother having a cordless phone? Now, after we've loaded our house with this idiotic phone system we have to go back and spend a bundle re-outfitting! Next time, I'll be sure to check with the opinions of other customers and not buy a ""Costco special"". ARGHHH!!!!"
+9123,2,Works Great,Works Great easy to install built to last glad i bought it nice value came fast like the color also
+9124,1,Absolute junk!,"The first AVP was watchable, but this sequel is the worst movie I've seen in many years. Not only is the story awful, but the action is so poorly directed, edited and photographed, the I often could not make sense of what was happening. But since the characterizations were so awful, I ultimately didn't care! What a stinker. Don't even waste your time on a rental. And why, oh why, do the studios put out junk like this on Blu-ray when so many DESERVING films are still waiting for a deluxe hi-def treatment? What a terrible waste!"
+9125,2,Good but watch your pressure,"I used the cutting pad and several polishing pads, all worked well. I did have the hook and loop backing peel on the maroon cutting pad. I don't know if this was due to overpressure on my part or faulty manufacturing. I found that overall Meguiars pads were durable and worked well. The polishing pads tended to load up quickly and leave streaks of wax. This could be corrected by cleaning the pad in water and soap. I would be interested in seeing how the cross-cut pads work vs Meguirs plain foam faced pads."
+9126,1,Good Coffee - Does NOT last long,"This is the THIRD one of these that I have gotten - shame on me. First one lasted years, second lasted one year - third one lasted 6 months. Failure is the pump --- item cycles and completes, but the coffee comes out like water. Can recycle the water on my own - but what's the point of that?Sorry - burned too many times on this. Although the coffee is great in the beginning - not worth the price. Back to the drip makers......"
+9127,2,"""The Siege"" is a good show, and a good conclusion","""The Siege"" is part 3 of DS9's stellar 3-parter epic. The script (for the most part) gives us a sucsessfull conclusion to the story and gives us some very nice action sequences (accompanied by an incredible musical score from Dennis McCarthy). This focuses on Sisko's attempts to keep the Circle, a group of Bajorian extremeists, from capturing his station. We also see Kira and Dax as they try to warn the Vedek assembly about the true origin of the Circle's weapons and supplies, which is perhaps what makes this 3 parter so excellent. Performances and directing are always top-notch and never falter here, the writing provides great action scenes and more good Bajorian politics. The only thing that holds the show back slightly is the ending, which is somewhat dissapointing. Overall, this is a stellar 3 part story arc, and this show is definatley worth being in your collection."
+9128,1,Disappontment,I returned this card shuffler immediately because the plastic on one of the battery door hinges was broken. I can't tell you if this does a good job shuffling cards but I can tell you that the plastic material used in its construction is so cheaply made that I didn't want a replacement.
+9129,2,Excellent,"I was very suprised to see that your web site offered these old movies. I grew up watching these movies, and brought great memories. The prize is a very reasonable which added another plus to your ratings very good, great! If you can sell more of these movies for example from Raphael, Rocio Durcal, Marisol, Joselito will be fantastic!. Thank you for offering these movies in CDs.TA"
+9130,2,Great Rosin,"I highly recommend this rosin. It rosin doesn't fly everywhere while playing and it adheres to the bow nicely to produce a clear bright sound. I do recommend breaking the rosin in by scratching it with sand paper prior to first use, and only a few swipes are all that is required to properly rosin the bow."
+9131,1,DO NOT BUY MINKA FANS!!!!,"In addition to horrible customer service, the fans are poor quality. One of my fans was missing an internal blade bracket, causing the blade to go through the wall. The other stopped working within 1 year. Minka did not make good in either case. You would think they would be concerned that the blade could have killed someone. I know it is tempting to buy them because of their design, but DON'T!!!"
+9132,1,Disappointed,"Very disappointed with this DVD. Thought it would show the matches itself, but all they do is talk about the matches. Don't get it for kids."
+9133,1,USED heaters - TWICE!,"I am very disappointed to say that when I received my heater it was clear that it had been USED. The paint on the buttons was worn, the buttons were not sitting right and there were scratches all over. I contacted Amazon and they sent out a new heater. I just went to open it today and IT TOO HAD BEEN USED! I never have problems with Amazon and I just can't believe this happened twice. The heater seems to work fine but I am appalled that I would be sent used items. Sam's Club sells this for $49.88 - NEW. Should have gotten it there."
+9134,1,"badly written, needs work","The author brings up controversies on which there realy isn't any disagreement. Did any of the Tsar's children survive? Their corpses have been found and DNA tests proved their authenticity. While his son's body was not among the bones it is unlikely that the kid survived. If he did, why didn't he leave russia, and claim the money which the russian royals stashed in swiss banks? The Tsar's son was a hemophiliac and couln't have survived into adulthood, as there was no treatment for hemophilia in those days. Why doesn't the author think of this? Was there a King Arthur? Maybe there was a celtic chief named Arthur or urther, and some silly monk used his name when writing a story. There's nothing to debate about. As for the other issues, the autor merely skims over them. He doesn't make any sensible conclusions, and the writing is poorly structured. Any high school student reading this book will know more about the material than the author."
+9135,2,Fun music,"I heard a clip from this album on NPR, checked it out online and ordered it. It's fun, upbeat guitar music. It's good for listening in the car when you don't want too much noise or distraction, and it's peppy enough to keep you interested. Glad I ordered it."
+9136,1,He's Had Better Magazine Articles,"I bought this book at first sight as Charles Barkley is one of my favorite athletes, and one of the best sources of entertaining and memorable quotes/observations in the past 15 years. Sadly, this book was a big disappointment. One wouldn't expect deep thought analysis or high journalism with this book, but instead entertaining commentary and observations that is Charles' trademark to compensate. While the former holds true, the latter is missing. What the reader is ultimately left with is a book that could have been written by any athelete, and you wouldn't be able to differentiate the voice as belonging to Charles. The special quality that makes Charles interesting and unique simply is not present in the book. It pains me to say this as one of his biggest fans, but this book simply isn't the same Charles."
+9137,1,Poorly Designed,"This toy is colorful and gets babies' attention. However, it asks you to find animals, shapes, numbers, etc. and even I can't find the button it asks for before it's moved on to something else. Very overstimulating! My other big problem is that it's a ball and little kids learn to throw balls, but it's hard plastic and heavy! Nice idea, but I think the design could have been thought out a bit better!"
+9138,1,kindle fire editiion review,Do not buy the electronic version of this. There is no navigation at all so finding any topic takesforever. The search feature is useless because it takes forever. What a shame.
+9139,1,Not worth it!!,"Don't bother. I bought this for my daughters 4th b-day (today). Now I don't have a gift to give her. I was going to load some songs for her when she opened it, loaded the software fine, computer recongnizes the player, but their own software doesnt recognize it!! DUH! After 1.5 hours of loading and reloading, boohing and reboothing I am done. It should not be this hard. I appreciate that others had the patience to spend 2 weeks waiting for replacement software and hours on the phone with cusotmer service but I do not, I have a party to get ready for. Just no gift to give. :-("
+9140,1,Burwell once again misses,"Carter Burwell's soundtrack music to ""Rob Roy"" was an early sign that he was not just getting it right. The score is all wrong but so is the movie. This movie needed an uplifting score. Carter Burwell could not deliver it."
+9141,2,good book,"Like every business book, it has at least 100 pages more than what would have been necessary to get the idea."
+9142,1,Leticians prowl the Zealand!,"This book is very good, but I kept losing my place when I lost my bookmark. Every chapter is like, maggots maggots maggots!New Zealand has maggots under the beds, in the cupboards and even in the water!I might go there but after reading this book I might not go there, do you see what I mean?I hope the country doesn't look like it does in this book!Also, this book explains that children are born on the streets without school children cousins or brothers in New Zealand other people might visit them!!!Go! Go! Go!bye"
+9143,2,One of Feinstein's Best!,"Feinstein sings several standards wonderfully but the real attraction for me is his going to songs that are not as well known. He has lovely, mellow versions of Soon, Time Enough for Love, and I'll Be There. This is one of my favorite CD's which is always a pleasure to hear."
+9144,1,Waste of money,"I saw this on Dr. Oz and figured I'd try it. Who doesn't have stress in their lives ? So there is an eyedropper in bottle. You use 4 drops and you are supposed to feel magically better. I can't believe I fell for this. It tasted like Whiskey. It is a dropperful of alcohol. That's it. If I am going to have a whiskey to calm me, I'd rather have a Jameson on the rocks. (jk)"

+9146,1,Pretty but not made well,They are not fitted. They are very puffy and baggy. Do not fit at all like they are suppose to.
+9147,2,"Entrancing story with very raw, true to life characters",I loved it. Wish I could find it again. Will pay double the cost for it.
+9148,2,Don't let the title fool you.,"This Cd is one of the best jazz Cd's Ive bought. Tom Scott's cover of "" Love Will Lead You Back"" is one of the best covers of a song I've heard in a very long time. The highly underated Lisa Fischer gives a spectacular vocal performance of "" Way Past Goodbye"". The entire CD is rated A-1 from beginning to end."
+9149,2,good for,"This was shipped quick. Our son isn't quite old enough for it, but he loves watching the other children and babies. We don't want the t.v. to be his babysitter, but it comes in handy when my child's restless and I have chores to do around the house.The video usually puts him in a better mood, and he even fallen asleep while watching. We bought one other B.B. vid, and plan to buy more."
+9150,2,"Great recording, not so great information","As one might expect, the Deller Consort excels in this recording, as usual. The only problem I find is the lack of information on the booklet. No lyrics (not even in Latin) and almost no information on the pieces (and the composer). But, for the price, this is a very good buy."
+9151,2,In his lovely memory,"This is a wonderful product, in the package there is such a beautiful stuff!You can remember the Bad Era in a full way and this is also such a moving feeling!I' ve cried a bit, after seeing and listening all the CDs.I recommend this product, no way!"
+9152,1,Lost interest after the hot tub scene.,"This movie had plenty of laughs, but I lost all interest after the two naked men pull owen wilson from the hot tub. Could have totally done without seeing that. If you can overlook that scene then I guess it was an alright move, maybe 3 1/2 stars."
+9153,1,What's going on?,"When I placed this order the description says ""in stock"". Now Amazon notified me that they are trying to obtain it. What's going on here?"
+9154,2,I absolutely love this man!...,"He's excellent,excellent!...Wow..when I heard Mundo Feliz I thought I've gone to heaven..he is awesome. No doubt but THE BEST! Enrique Bunbury has recorded yet another magnificent album. He's soo cute too! I love him. Enrique Bunbury para siempre!"
+9155,2,MAC SANTOKU,The knife is razor sharp and a delight to use for vegetables. the fittings for the handle are bit sloppy but not a critical problem. Al in all a nice peice of equipment for the price.
+9156,2,16 yr old review,"i just finished reading All I Want Is Everything. i was so excited when it came out, i had waited for 4 months for it to come out. im a little disappointed at what happens, i wish blair and nate would get back together. but i am very excited for the 4th one to come out. all the books are great. im glad i found something i can relate to, instead of those old boring books in school. but until the 4th one comes out ill ahve to wait. You Know You Love Me."
+9157,2,The Best,"I can't say enough about this book and how much my youngest daughter and I have enjoyed it. It is such a heartwarming story between a man and his cat, especially if you are a cat-lover. Teaches the true meaning of love, not only between a human and his pet(s) but between people as well."
+9158,1,Terrible track,"With the slightest touch, the track falls out of place. Spend the extra money, and purchase the ""O"" gauge train set by Lionel. It is a much better product, and your kids will have enjoy it much more than its plastic ""G"" gauge"" counterpart."
+9159,2,Gound-shaking Album !,"I remember my father buying this album on 8-track in the early 70's and to this day he claims it was one of the greatest records ever made. I have to agree with him. As the years go by it gets better and better. What sets ""Introspect"" apart from the Greatest Hits collections is the cut ""Gabriel"" which funks and rocks harder than any other song in his catalog. And talk about guitar playing and sonic sound effects!!! This stuff would even give Hendrix some stiff competition(believe it or not). Joe's blend of sitar guitar with down-home country riffs has never been duplicated to my knowledge. An American original. If you dig the late 60's, buy this album!"
+9160,1,Very slow for printing large files,"I didn't have any trouble setting up the print server, and it worked as expected. I was happy until I started printing photo's through it (which is the primary purpose of the printer attached to the print server). It is so slow as to be unusable. I imagine you would be happy sending it small docs to print but for anything large (like photo's), forget it. I'm looking for all the original packing so I can return it."
+9161,1,Very Cheaply Made,"I ordered two of these lights to use over work benches in my barn. As soon as I unpacked the first one, I noticed the fixture was broken so I returned it for replacement. I did not get a chance to hang the second one for a couple of days. When I did, I found it to be defective as well. First, it was difficult to get the bulbs installed. It would have been impossible had I been trying to install them after hanging it. When I finally did get the bulbs in, it did not work. Apparently some sort of electrical problem. The replacement for the fixture I returned arrived today. It works okay so I am keeping but not happy with the quality of workmanship. I am returning the other one for credit. With only one out of three working, it is simply not worth it to give this product another chance. I will try a different brand. I cannot recommend this one. As usual, however, Amazon made the returns easy."
+9162,1,Don't Buy it,... First of all the play control can get really annoying because it's slippery. Second the graphics are better than the ps and n64 versions but there not even close to Dreamcast's full potential. Third the mission objectives are really pointless. Don't buy it or rent it.
+9163,1,"I may be a bit extreme in my view,","but in retrospect, I think everything after Cream is superfluous. Cream was willing to experiment, and Clapton's guitar style still had that ferocious and precise ""bite"" and exhilarating cleanness you saw on the first John Mayall record. What is there really to get truly juiced about after that? All his recent stuff is just so sadly tired..."
+9164,1,Go with the Diaper Champ!!!,"I bought this as an extra to my diaper champ because I will soon have 2 in diapers and I don't want to empty the trash more than once (twice tops) during each week. I figured the Genie would have no smell, so I could put poopie diapers in it and wet ones in the Champ. Stick with the Champ. No odor inbetween changes and less odor when taking trash out. These are the reasons I rated this product so poorly...1. I had to read the directions to use it and I have to explain it to other people who use my nursery.2. It stinks every time I put a diaper in. The Champ only stinks when you change it (I always wrap my diapers tight!!)3. It takes 2 hands. I can put one hand on my baby and use the other one to toss the diaper with the Champ.4. I have to use their expensive refills (I bought a box of kitchen bags with 4 rolls in it at Ralphs for 4 or 5 bucks and I'm only on the second roll - My daughter is 12 months old!"
+9165,1,9 of 12 soup cans badly dented,"This is delicious and nutritious soup which we ordered after ordering and being pleased with the Tomato soup. BUT 9 of the 12 cans arrived badly dented! I submitted a review on packaging with a photo of the 9 cans, thinking I would hear back promptly from someone at Amazon or at Amy's company, but so far nothing. I was not able to find another way to communicate, so perhaps this will get a reply. The outer carton was perfect and the shipment included a book which was also undamaged. The 12 cans had been shrink-wrapped on a tray and were o.k. to look at until you unwrapped them. I don't know how 9 of the 12 could be so badly dented without anyone being aware. I will be happy to e-mail a photo if someone will give me instructions. Thanks!"
+9166,1,Nice looking but ineffective,"I got these for my sliding glass doors as a security device. It looks very well machined and shiny, but it doesn't keep people from opening the doors.The way it works is that the lever has a wedge shaped inner surface that pushes a metal slug into the U-shaped gap inside the device. It's supposed to press the slug into the sliding rail of the door to keep the device (and hence the door) from moving. Unfortunately, the lever doesn't lock in place, and the metal inner surfaces are not very good at gripping the metal track of my sliding doors, so all you have to do is repeatedly push the door against the lock and it will slide the lock down the rail and allow the door to open while the lock is still locked."
+9167,1,Good if not using ICS,"I'm sure this would be a good product if it was compatible with Internet Connection Sharing(ICS). Unfortunately, this product doesn't work on the gateway computer with ICS enabled. Only purchase if you don't have a home network."
+9168,1,Not the best :/,"I orderd this because I thought it would get the job done, but it leaves tea floating at the top of the cup ):. Its very easy to open thoe."
+9169,2,Unknown Pleasures CD,The only thing that bothered me was that if you play the CD in your Car stereo the titles do not show as on many of my CDs. This must be due to the low quality of the copy or the fact that the copy wasn't done through licensed partner.For the rest the sound and songs are great.
+9170,2,Patagonia Long Underwear top,what can i say another outstanding patagonia made product that meets all my backcountry needs and expectations. one of the finest products out there that totally meets and exceeds my previosu experience of patagonia and their outstandign products.
+9171,2,Aw NOW we're talkin...,This album is one of if not the angriest and aggressive metal albums ever but it's not the typical song-with-no-direction-just-play-as-fast-as-you-can-and-scream-like-you're-being-cornholed-by-a-can-of-juicy juice crap. THIS IS REAL METAL ! THEIR NEW STUFF AND NEWER METAL DOES NOT COMPARE IN ANY WAY ! Raw..angry..fast..real.....and sorely missed.....
+9172,2,YES IT WORKS !!!!,I forgot that I had the patch on one day and wondered what was wrong with me. I felt like I had the stomach flu. Not that I had a sick feeling but that I had no appetite. Then I remembered that I was wearing the patch and is already in the habit of replacing it everyday!
+9173,2,A Surprising Journey,"This is a marvelous story about a strong woman who facedadversities and struggles that could have shattered an ordinarylife. Leaving a home of abuse to face even more extraodinary events that could never have been predicted, caused her at times to search deeply for inner strength. She never weakened, butinstead turned to prayer and God for courage. You will enjoythe journey reading Jan's life as she faced the death of fourhusbands while raising a family. Jan tells her story beautifullyas she looks back into her past, but brightens as she looks tothe future."
+9174,2,"My baby's favorite, but didn't last until 22 pounds","My baby loved this the most out of all the 7 baby carriers I bought, but she outgrew it before she hit 22 pounds, like it said it went to. She started to get very squished in there before we hit that mark. She always wanted to be facing outward, and the Baby Bjorn is the only carrier that does that. It feels very secure, and the padding makes me feel that my baby is comfortable. It does start to hurt your back and shoulders because there isn't any support, but seeing as it doesn't carry a baby very heavy, it is OK for shorter trips. My baby fell asleep very easily in this carrier- every time I put her in it. It's extremely easy to buckle and unbuckle- I LOVE that feature. I just wish they made it for bigger babies!"
+9175,2,Must Have for NT engineers and admins,Being someone who has woked with NT for several years this book is a requirement. Those that are looking for fun overview reading are looking in the wrong place. The detail on the NT registry and Performance monitoring is not to be found anywhere else. I couldn't live without it.
+9176,1,Bad sound,"While the more recent R.E.M. comp, ""And I Feel Fine,"" suffers from booming, compressed, in-your-face sound, this relic from the early '90s is bad in a different way: the sound is trebly and bass-shy. Unfortunately, the best-sounding comp of IRS-era R.E.M. remains ""Eponymous."" I say unfortunately because it has only 12 songs and is missing a few tracks I love, most notably ""Pretty Persuasion."" Oh well."
+9177,2,Worth Reading,It had a good plot. It had good character development. It held my inerest throughout. I would read another story in the series.
+9178,2,The radio version on TV,"If the radio show were on television, this is pretty much what you would expect it to look like. The old era's special effects are just charming, and, unlike the movie, the story is faithful to the original.It is, however, less funny in this form, for some reason, hence the four stars."
+9179,1,World's most concise plot summary,"Life didn't go how I planned. I got cancer. My career tanked. I had disappointments. Good people have bad things happen to them. Many religious people behave badly. Many formal religions are in conflict and therefore some of them are obviously wrong. Therefore there is no god. And by the way, I am smarter than the rest of you.There's a reason they call them ""believers"", not ""know-ers"". Anyone who gives an answer other than ""I don't know"" or ""I believe there is"" when asked about the existence of God is an arrogant fool. They didn't think there were germs 200 years ago. After all, there was no ""proof""."
+9180,2,"Keep it simple, because it works","Simple, effective. Since I switched from classic pans to this device, my four cats have been much happier. Me, too. It's so easy to use. I recommend corn base clumping litter. The other types don't work as well. Just roll, tap, unroll, and empty. No mess, no fuss, no complicated machines."
+9181,1,WASTE OF MONEY,"The purpose of a baby monitor is to free you up for household chores while still allowing you to know that junior is safe and sound. Audio does this nicely. Video only works if you sit there and watch it (which defeats the purpose of freeing you up for chores), and if it has audio, as this one does, then why even HAVE video?? Video is an unnecessary expense, because just what is there to SEE inside a baby's crib anyway? There shouldn't be anything dangerous in there anyway!!!! Save the $ and get an audio. As someone else pointed out, reception isn't always good on this model either. Video monitors are a ploy to get well-meaning parents, eager to protect their children (""if you don't get this, you're an irresponsible parent!""), to spend more money. Look at the price tag on this compared to a simple audio. Sell yours on ebay, spend ten bucks for a good audio monitor, and put the rest in baby's college fund where you'll get much more use out of it."
+9182,1,Too complicated ...not what I was expecting.,"I was hoping to have a full menu but this book splits it up on different sections, etc. Also, the recipies are way too complicated, nothing you would cook every day, unless you don't work. Waste of money."
+9183,1,Disappointing.,Dd is 8 months and she is bored with this toy. She is standing and cruising on her own. However she can only play with the front when she is sitting because it will roll the other way if she's leaning on it.
+9184,2,Great book for dog owners,"This book made me laugh out loud and cry - which is the first time a book has had that type of impact on me!I got my first dog two years ago, so I could absolutely relate to the stories in the book. It makes you realize and appreciate the bond between dogs and owners.I would recommend this book to all dog owners!"
+9185,1,not for me....,I was diappointed in this ...too much mumbo jumbo about mental illness...not enough concentration on the inspector...and the ending was terrible....
+9186,2,it is a good book,"i't a important book because the lector can understand the Sarduy's literature, specially this issues about ""cubanidad"", ""margens and border"" , at all about Spanish literature"
+9187,2,A excellent work again!,"Dr. Nigg and Dr. Herzog complete their excellent work again!As their previous work, the second edition of this textbook presents a comprehensive survey of biomechanics in musculoskeletal system. I recommand it to all serious students who want to realize the fundamental knowledge about the mechanics of bone, muscle, and human movement."
+9188,1,"A resource hog, many errors, but....","I purchased this product on a recommendation from PC World magazine. I don't think I made a good decision. This product has been a mistake from the first update. I loaded SpySweeper and the product immediately required an update. I don't mind that, one must stay ahead of all spyware, but the program really taxed my system's resources. I have 2GB, a AMD dual-core with four 160gb SATA hard drives, and it really slowed down my system. It also produced many Windows XP errors. I submitted the errors to Webroot for analysis and I even emailed technical support, but without much resolution. I decided to remove it and use Norton's Anti-Virus Suite instead. Maybe your experience would be better, but I cannot recommend this product. Now after saying all this, there was absolutely no spyware able to stay on my system when this product worked, but again, the performance of the product in other areas makes this experience unfortunate."
+9189,1,nice toaster..lousy warranty,"This is a very nice toaster. BUT, the power went out and when it came on the toaster did not work. Only thing in the house (home protected by a whole house surge protector)that had a problem.I called Breville and was told the warranty did not cover power outages."
+9190,2,Makes a great gift,"As a transplanted South African, I regularly give this book as a gift - giving people a 'taste' of my home country. The recipe's are easy to follow. A nice way to share my culture."
+9191,1,A ton of reading for nothing,"I finished the book yesterday much anticipating it to hit its stride and become interesting. The book felt like it peaked in the first chapter and I spend the rest of it waiting and hoping for a revenge that never comes. I would only reccomend this to people wanting to imagine what life would be like for your family and community if you were murdered, but it is certainly not a page turner."
+9192,2,The Book,"If you are interested in integer programming, you don't really have many choices for a textbook. This is the academic standard on the subject. For combinatorial optimization, there are other alternatives. If you are used to the formal language after years of optimization education, it is actually pretty clear. If you are an undergrad or a new master's student you may find it very difficult and complain."
+9193,2,Interesting travelogue with personal observations,I liked Walking The Poems of Ireland because it took me to places that are out of the way from other travel books about Ireland. The author's viewpoint is often used and the details of each site come from local museums and information at the sites. I found it interesting and informative.
+9194,2,Wonderful,"Awesome book that explains in detail with lots of photos from start to finish. Excellent reference for beginner and others who need to learn some tips from a pro. Speedy delivery...used copy had coffee cup stain on front, eewwww!"
+9195,2,Will Read Again,"This one will not go in the Goodwill basket. I was intrigued to read about Poland in the Napleon days. A great culture, similiar to England but not as stuffy. Some of the characters may have been a bit exaggerated but all in all a good asortment. The story was gripping, the situations nicely woven together, and the comfort of knowing there is a sequel."
+9196,2,An elegant and skilled writer tackles a very complex history,"From cover to cover, I could not bear to put this book aside. I found Mr. Ball's writing to be clear, concise and very expressive of his obvious sensitivity and humor. The story of the african-americans was heartbreaking, while the tale of the Balls was infuriating. I learned many things about slavery and about the way the system worked. The detail Mr. Ball went into only made the story more fascinating to me. The task he set out to accomplish would have been intimidating to most people; he certainly risked the scorn of the descendants of his family's slaves. I would highly recommend this book to anyone who is interested in the South and in the roots of our present-day predicament between the races."
+9197,2,FRESH TOPIC FOR TV,"An impressive idea about a professional team that can spot the smallest of lies based on body language, expressions and ""microexpressions"". The main character is compelling, the supporting cast is hit or miss. Most of the episodes are interesting and I appreciate how they show real clips of politicians and celebrities lying to us with their body language/facial expressions. Some of it is definitely pop psychology style but other parts are true and the main character is based on a real person. Most of the characters can't have satisfying love relationships because they catch their partners lying. Interesting theme about lies and love. How much do you expose and what do you let get by for the sake of the affair? DIALOGUE/CHARACTERS: B to B plus; STORY/PLOTTING: B to B plus; FRESHNESS FOR A TV TOPIC: A minus; OVERALL GRADE: B to B plus; WHEN WATCHED: October to December 2010 (streamed)."
+9198,2,Love It,Given as a gift to my Nephew. He loves all of the videos that are from Stomp the Yard. Will make more purchases.
+9199,2,Perfect no nonsense formattng software,"Final Draft is essential for students and industry professionals. I've been using it for a decade and have no complaints. But screenwriting software won't make you a good writer. For that you need practice and educational tools likeThe Bare Bones Book of Screenwriting: The Definitive Beginner's Guide to Story, Format, and Business"
+9200,1,They break easily,"Price was tempting, but I pushed my DVD player in a bit too hard and the end broke right off this cable...pay a few bucks more and get something better."
+9201,1,No usb sync!,"I got this dock, thinking that it would be a good alternative to apple's dock. After all, it came with cables and was 30$ less than appple's product. I was dissappointed, however when I lost my usb cable that came with my iPod. When I plugged the dock in using usb, rather than comming up in iTunes all that happened was my ipod started charging. Not a good product. It says clearly in the description that it syncs via usb."
+9202,2,Awesome conga,"This is a similar review for the 11"" Quinto head but it applies here too:I originally purchased the Remo Skyndeep Conga head for my Quinto but I did not like the high pitched overtones. Even though it was my first foray into synthetic heads, I decided to give this one a shot. I'm glad I did!Firstly, It was snug getting it onto the rim of my Comfort Curve II LP Classic, so before buying I highly recommend checking on Remo's website to confirm that the head will fit with your drum.The tuning was easy and quick, the heads seem to naturally rest right in tune without any drop in tuning! Which is amazing!Onto the most important part, the sound.. I love the sound of these heads!!! Its warm, full bodied, projects well and has a very very close sound to natural heads. Furthermore, they feel soft on your hands, not rough like the cow hide skins I had on previously. This means, you can play longer and more comfortably!"
+9203,1,Just Bad,"The book was redundant, repetitious, mundane, boring...get the idea? The first 275 pages were the same events over and over, then the ending did NOT add to the story. Sorry I took the time to read it."
+9204,1,I'm an idiot!,I already have the cd with this song on it..this is only one song played 4 different ways..It came fast in the mail and has no problems. But I don't need it.
+9205,1,A long and rambling tale that loses the reader,"While the beginning of E. Annie Proulx's novel, Accordion Crimes starts off well, the reader is quickly lost as the accordion moves from one miserable owner to another. I truly was bored by this book, but did finish it."
+9206,2,Miss Grant Takes Richmond,"Miss Grant Takes Richmond is a hilarious Lucille Ball movie co-starring Bill Holden. Lucy is enrolled in a secretarial school, but is terrible. Bill Holden comes in looking for a secretary and surprisingly picks Lucy. Over time, she learns to be a great secretary. Unbeknownst to Lucy, she's involved with crooks. A great comedy from before Lucy was Lucy."
+9207,2,mix up,"after I had purchased product the shippers address change, I was a lil slow to figuring out how to find the pkg. seems the office failed to notify the apt tendant they had mail for them"
+9208,2,Good reception,"For only $15, you have a radio and headphone with good reception. My only problem is the cord that gets caught on everything until it breaks which is very annoying, so I only gave it 4 stars instead of 5 stars. Takes a AA battery which lasts for several hours."
+9209,2,Great toy to challenge your cats,"I bought two of these for my pair of female cats to try. It did not take long for them to figure it out. My cats prefer to push it around with their heads until a treat pops out. Very entertaining to watch and a new challenge for them to figure out. They enjoy it when it is full of treats, but I am still trying to get them to self feed full time on them."
+9210,2,ABC Block Cart,I remember having these toys as a child and just had to purchase this for my niece. I think I have more fun with it than her. She will play with it for a little while then move on to something else. Hopefully later on she will love it as much as I do.
+9211,2,ThinkFun Zingo,Great product! Great vocabulary builder and fun for kids young and older. I bought it to play with my 3 year old and he loves it.
+9212,1,Started off fresh ended up a real stinker,When I first applied it was fresh and summery...shortly after the smell reminded me of the peeling an onion. My eyes sorta stung and I justed wanted to be anywhere but in my skin. Very harsh after the summery scent wears away. Something in the same vein that I did like was Pleasures by Estee Lauder.
+9213,2,Easy to use nice grip,"It only took a few seconds to read the instructions on how to remove a blade from storage and then load it in the knife. The only grip I have is the blade is a little loose. But it is an easy no tools required blade change,and if you don't mind the blade being a little loose I would highly recommend them"

+9217,2,learn from the master,"you will not regret buying this book. a must have book for any designer of any discipline (web, print, media, etc). the downside is that there's a lot of reading to do. so hunker down and expect to fall asleep a few times during the readings, but it's definitely worth knowing how the system works from the master of the grid."
+9218,1,Worst of the 3 movies,"Someone here left a review claiming that this was the best of the Tenchi movies with a revealing conclusion to Tenchi/Aeka/Ryoko saga. A HUGE DISAPPOINTMENT!It didn't give you the same feeling you get from the OAV/OVA series or the first two movies. The graphics are worse. It lacked the upbeat atmosphere from those familiar silliness. (Sorry, Washu-chan didn't even crack a single joke!) It lacked the feel of romance to help carry the excitement throughout the whole movie. What can I say? I just barely kept my eyes open to see that grand finale only to find out that it wasn't much of a conclusion to the Tenchi/Aeka/Ryoko saga. If you really loved the second movie, Daughter of the Darkness/Manatsu no Eve, don't expect to watch this movie over and over again. You are better off reading the No Need For Tenchi! comic books, which continue the OAV series."
+9219,1,worst experience,Never received my order of this book and seller could not respond to my email requesting about the status of the order. And Amazon.com is playing the delay tactics game to either refund my money or contact the seller directly. Horrible horrible experience!! Don't trust this seller.
+9220,1,Do Not Flush!!!,"I just finished snaking our drain pipes and found a nice clog made entirely of Kandoos. We haven't even finished using a small package yet and they already caused our drains to back up. These may be an attractive concept, but beware!"
+9221,1,So. Many. Errors.,"Aughh, I can't believe I bought this book without reading reviews first! I had found the Precalc Demystified book to be very helpful, so I figured I couldn't go wrong with another one in the same series. Wrong!!! I am on Chapter TWO, and so far there have been so many ridiculous errors that I just can't continue with the book. Because of all the errors (and then the creeping, nagging feeling: is *that* an error, or is my understanding wrong??) the book has pretty much been an impediment to understanding. I have spent more time on the internet clarifying concepts, and with pen and paper re-working the bizarrely wrong example calculations, than I have spent learning from the book. I only wish I had not begun to make margin notes in it, because now I can't return it. :("
+9222,1,"Love the Album, Hate the Remaster","I was SO looking forward to hearing this remastered CD because War is by far my favorite U2 album, largely because it was my introduction to the band back in the early 80s. I was also really looking forward to the remaster because I always thought that the original War album sounded incredibly tinny with very little low end. I was hoping the remaster would fix this, but it really does not. What a bummer! One listen to Sunday Bloody Sunday shows how little ""bottom"" there is to this remaster (and the original). When the bass guitar finally kicks in at about 0:30, you have to listen to hear it practically. The bass simply has no punch on the remaster. Despite this I still love the album, but I hate the remaster. Don't buy this just for the remaster."
+9223,1,Recording Quality Really Poor,I could have recorded old records and tapes with better quality than these tracks. I suggest finding the songs you want on other discs.
+9224,2,Music from the O.C. 1,This has lots of great music from the later season. A good variety with something for everyone. Sounds like the soundtrack to my highschool years.
+9225,2,a really good pay per view from tna,im not going to say who is better tna or wwe cause i like both the reason i like tna even more now is cause of sting im glad they brought him back and im glad hes in tna cause in wwe they probably would of just wasted him and as far as lockdwn 2006 goes the matches that i thought were good were the world x cup preview match which had some good high flying moves from both teams and the fallen angel christopher daniels against his former partner senshi formly known as low ki and the xscape match another good match the anthem match was good too and the x division championship match was ok it was too short i would have liked to seen more action between sabu and samoa joe but it was still good and the two main events were the best matches of the whole night christian cage against abyss fantastic match and the lethal lockdown match another fantastic match to end a really good pay per view and im really glad sting is back and one more thing its show time folks
+9226,1,Disappointed,"Although it arrived ahead of schedule, the product itself is disappointing. It does not last long after sprayed. I've been buying ""Passion"" for years and have never had this problem."
+9227,2,Great Journal of my pregnancy trip,"I love this little book. I have filled every page with details I do not want to forget. There is enough space to write memories for each week, a space for photos and ultrasounds (you will need to reprint and resize them because it's slightly smaller than a notebook). Also has pages for tracking impressions of doctor appointments and end-of-trimester thoughts. The beauty of it is that YOU write the entire book! It only has guided spaces and a few questions here and there. Room for favorite baby names, baby shower gifts received and at the end has room for childbirth afterthoughts. Overall, a wonderful gift. Make sure it makes it to your preggo by the early weeks/months of her pregnancy as it is a weekly journal that is best filled out as you progress along. Would recommend to a friend and cannot wait to show my baby when he's old enough to appreciate it."
+9228,1,Shoddy,"I have to write that this was a waste of my money. There is no life in this music, and I'm used to hearing good things from these guys. Its too bad that the Sisters of Mercy only have three other studio outputs which are very good (First last and Always, Floodland, and Vision Thing) I know this is some of they're very early work but it would have been better if this stayed in the closet."
+9229,2,An excellent late album from the Strawbs,"If you ignore the fact that commercially this turned out to be the end of the road for the Strawbs, you'll find that the album is one of their better ones (and, in particular, a major improvement on its predecessor, Burning for You).The first side has some of the most accessible rock songs that Dave Cousins ever wrote (or co-wrote: Chas Cronk and Dave Lambert are also given writing credits). Joey and Me is the highlight, but Last Resort and No Return are also good driving rockers. Even Sealed with a Traitor's Kiss works well -- it's a slow ballad that changes the pace at the right time.The second side hasn't got the same energy, although there is one gem -- the haunting Deadly Nightshade -- that grabs your attention. The only track I didn't like was Words of Wisdom -- I never thought that nonwestern mysticism [here a song derived from Carlos Casteneda's writings] and musical influences ever mixed well with rock and roll."
+9230,1,Problem with warranty,"Continued from my earlier review - after having several problems with my Lexmark printer I took it to the retailer, but they said they could no longer send it back to Lexmark despite the fact the LEXEXPRESS warranty states the printer will be repaired or exchanged. I was given a number to call, which gave the same directions as the manual for troubleshooting, which we already tried. I emailed Lexmark and they refuse to take the printer back for repairs or to replace it. I am so upset they will not fulfill the warranty.I filed a complaint with the Better Business Bureau."
+9231,1,Frustrating to use,"I'm a dedicated Treo user - have a 700P after having one of the first 600's in Texas and a 650 the day it came out. Have been hoping for a good keyboard solution and have yet to find one. I love gadgets, am not dumb, and found this product enormously frustrating. First it wouldn't connect, then it did but it was impossible to navigate using the keyboard. I don't mind the keys having shortcuts for Pocket PC and Symbian - no worries there. But I've had Palms for years and often had to try 25-30 different, reasonable, increasingly less intuitive keystrokes before giving up tiredly. Moving around applications doesn't make sense to me, and enter versus tab versus the green Fn key or the blue one... completely over the top in difficulty unless you want to use your stylus all the time.I'm returning mine after 3 days of working with it in my office, on planes, and in airports. Total disappointment."
+9232,1,SAD...,"This so called ""great"" singer should have been invited to make the soundtrack for Wes Craven's picture ""SCREAM"", because is that all she wanna do! She's using her great vocal chords to, instead of just singing, feeling she has to demonstrate, in each single note, how powerful her voice is. The result: the songs are annoying, disturbing, makes you wanna them to finish as soon as possible !"
+9233,1,Terrible,"One of the worst films I have ever seen. Bad direction, bad acting, bad writing and predictable ending."
+9234,2,a movie ahead of its time,"a movie ahead of its time....an amazing message in a film filled with laughter, character, entertainment and yet an alarming awareness of a time our country can be most ashamed of. So where has this film been hiding...has its ""politically incorrect"" structure prevented its bringing to our attention that we still, as a country, have a long way to go. Relax, enjoy, laugh, and then feel embarassment.....as you witness a wonderful film.....so long over due"
+9235,2,Best Brush EVER!,"This is the best brush I have ever tried! My cat loves it! I'm not sure how it works, but it does the job fantastically! It's inexpensive and easy to use. I will not have to take my cat to $75 hair cut anymore. I gave only 4 stars because the brush came with lots of hair on it. So I guess it has been used and returned. But I love it so I will keep it ^_^"
+9236,2,Fun in regression,I got this item for my 15-year-old brother because he loves zombies and heard of this game. We had so much fun playing this game and the game was in good condition so no problems were eminent. It's old school but quite fun and the zombies aren't so easy to squash off.
+9237,1,this movie has epic fail written all over it,"this movie is just beyond unintelligent and boring wwe has stop making movies none of the wrestlers can act hulk hogan cant act neither can the rock wwe films should just stop making movies because all the movies they make and release are epic fails and are seriously boring and lame im sorry wrestling fans but Vincent Kennedy ""Vince"" McMahon destroyed my childhood"
+9238,1,"Inadequate, messy, and hype","I have read many e-commerce books, this one is part of my school recommended text and that is why I need to read it from cover to cover, else I would have threw it out few chapters later.It's a badly organised book that throw a bunch of IT-driven business concepts that has been around for many years, slap an 'e-' in front of it, and call it a 'e-business' book. It tries to depict 'e-business' to be everything, and teach nothing, tells you what you should do, but doesn't tell you how you could possibly do it, it tells you whats wrong in many business process, but does not tell you what is the solution. Most of the time, the answer will lead back to vaguely say 'you need integrated enterprise application' or 'you need to change'.I would prefer more focus and realistic books that does not pretend to be everything like those by Patricia B. Seybold, etc.."
+9239,1,Save Your Money,"He starts with: Before you Start. And tells us: If you don't like the book, then please do not feel compelled to share that with me. ""I do not care."" ""I am not interested in your criticism or your ideas or your feedback.""Then on page 3, he tells us: ""Listen to your customers.""Why would anyone want to read a book giving the unwashed masses advice that doesn't apply to the Jackass behind the typewriter?You can do better than this. Go on to the next author. Give this guy a pass. He doesn't deserve your hard earned dollars."
+9240,1,Not Modern China,"China after the Olympics has many architectural sites and new icons....none were in my book because it is a 2005 edition, which I supposed was 2010."
+9241,2,Amazing Little Gadget!,"I have had my Kindle for about two weeks now. I have found it be a fantastic device in almost every way. The display is very good and I have found it to not promote eyestrain. I have read for about three hours straight and my eyes didn't hurt at all. The battery life is very good, except if you leave the 3G on. With it on the battery lasted 6 hours; off it lasted around 40 hours. The internet is frustratingly slow when you have less than 4 bars. Overall, the Kindle has proved to be a innovative and easy-to-use device. It is perfect for an avid reader like myself. I would reccomend buying it."
+9242,2,Worked just as promised although not as I expected,"First off, the upgrade is really just a chip that you insert into the printer. This chip allows the printer to print double-sided. I didn't realize this and at first thought I had been ripped off because I was expecting another tray or component that attached to the printer or something. But following the instructions, the chip worked great and my printer started printing double-sided just fine. Really nice to have a printer that is in color and can do double-sided."
+9243,1,Textbook Critique,"This book, Curriculum Improvement: Decision Making and Process, by Ronald C. Doll (1996) was not very interesting for me, and did not do much to keep my attention. It was a struggle for me to get through each chapter, and as a result, I have no interest in the curriculum development process. The book did have very interesting questions and activities at the end of each chapter, which I found were suitable for those persons going into the administrative part of education."
+9244,2,Fantastic Watch,"I love this watch - had it for about 7 or 8 years now and have never had any problems. After showing it off to my Dad, he went out and bought the exact same model. I really love timepieces, and would like to buy a nice new watch, but I can't find anything (for less than several thousand) that I like as much as this.Pros:Very VERY lightweight watch - I hate big heavy watchesSmall face - I have thin wrists and most of today's mens watches just look too big on mePerfect combination of casual and stylish, can be worn anywhereKeeps very good timeNothing glows (I don't like things that glow)Extremely comfortable bandHave only changed the battery onceSimple look - no flashy, useless dials, just time and dateCons:nothing that are the watch's fault, just some scratches and chips to the edge of the crystal due to wearing every day for 8 years.I'd prefer it said nothing on the face other than 'SEIKO', but really can't complain too much about that"
+9245,2,Very good product! It rocks iPod for less money.,"Good quality and just the right product, as expected. One disadvantage is all about the buttons around the roll keys, because they are too small and sometimes is very difficult to press if you have huge fingers."
+9246,1,It never worked right!,"I've had this for years and am finally getting rid of it after realizing every time I go to use it the bulb won't stay sealed and it never works. I didn't go to use it too often so I often thought it was the mix I was injecting...but no it's the item. I'm also slightly confused because it's threaded, but on the inside of the staff part where the bulb attaches, not the outside, so it doesn't actually screw into anything on the bulb. The needle does screw on. Save yourself the hassle, get something else."
+9247,2,Timeless Love Story,"I loved this movie. Diana Ross should never have quit acting -- she's good. The movie is filled with colorful fashions, unforgetable music from the 70's, and a beautiful love story between the characters played by Diana Ross and Billy Dee Williams."
+9248,1,Not the same as the album,"The CD was in very good quality and exactly what I had ordered. It came in a timely manner as well. I bought this for my father because he had the album for years but it became scratched. He asked for the CD for Christmas. However, after comparing the album to the CD there are some omissions that we noticed that disappointed him because they were lines that he enjoyed. Otherwise, everything is fine."
+9249,1,Poor Customer Service,"I ordered the FTX45 brewer but was sent the FTX45-1. This coffee pot lacks the warmer plate temperatue control. I contacted Mr Coffee customer service about the error in their manual stating the feature was present, Their standard answer is we will pass this information along, there is never an offer to replace or give something for the inconvience. I will never buy a Mr Coffee product again, it is worth the extra money to buy products from a company that understands customer service.One other point, their filtration system is very poor, I can't tell the difference with or without the little disk.Disapointed"
+9250,2,Finally!,"I've been looking for this on DVD for years. Several years ago I bought both parts on VHS in the clamshell packaging from WB, since then I let a friend of mine borrow them and haven't been able to retrieve them. I'm so pleased that such a classic film has been released on DVD for both veterans and newcomers to the world through the looking glass. Filled with great characters portrayed by some of the most skilled actors and performers that audiences have ever seen, this is a film not to be missed."
+9251,1,Decent for a first book,"The barebone plot is certainly not bad and the indepth world is convincing. Yet, there are too many details that do nothing for the book, many sentences being long and overly technical. Much of the background information would be better relegated into a stuffy old history textbook!I would've preferred more action scenes, more story behind the characters; more lines for everyone. The ending wasn't too bad except I couldn't believe the characters would ""escape from their feelings"" after making it so far. At least put in some more effort, man, before calling it quits! I know Wells was trying for realism but *hint, hint*: in situations like these, a bit of ""out of character"" would lend some humour and make the reader go ""awww""."
+9252,1,Had a hard time finishing,"This book was difficult for me to read. The idea of an airplane being grabbed out of the air and then released back month's later was a little far fetched for me. It was a slow read and boring until the very last few chapters. I usually keep my books to read again, but I threw this one away."
+9253,2,I love it,"This small CD player has wonderful sound quality, and everything on it works as described."
+9254,1,This stuff stinks,"I found that not only does it smell bad, but I had to keep washing my pillow cases. So far, I see absolutely no difference."
+9255,1,Not worth the money,"This is the biggest waste of money possible. Every two sentences, it tells you to go to PlayOnline if you need more help and doesn't give any helpful information in the actual book. Save your money, there are a lot of good free walkthroughs on the web already and even the one on PlayOnline is free, or wait for an unofficial strategy guide, it will be worth more than this."
+9256,2,Fabulous series,Absolutely loved London Hospital. It's highly entertaining and you learn so much about hospital conditions from years back. I'd recommend watching both series. The cast is great and everything authentic. I wish they'd make more.
+9257,2,A terrific evening of great singing and banter,"I happened across Faith Prince while watching the Broadway Ladies DVD - she sang, what I understand now is her ""signature"" song - ""Adelaide's Lament"" from Guys and Dolls. I also have the CD from Guys and Dolls and hadn't even realized, when I listened, that it was Faith Prince. This recording is her ""virgin"" debut in the cabaret mode - and she is just exceptional! I have always been a fan of the musical ""On a clear day you can see forever"" and Ms. Prince breathes renewed life into one of my favorite Broadway songs from that show, but really from all shows ever ""What did I have that I don't have."" Her style of singing this song is somwhat reminiscent of Barbara Harris, but she brings to it her wonderfully unique lilt, humor and passion. Her banter with the audience is upbeat, humorous, self effacing, and great fun. I strongly recommend this marvelous CD to all who enjoy live concert music performed by a magnificent professional singer."
+9258,2,2 GB iPod Nano White,Fine iPod but disappointed no instruction manual came with it. I read everything on the help web site and still don't know enough to really operate it efficiently. But the quality of sound is great.
+9259,2,"Great Glass, Good Price","When I was searching around for the best deal on a 50mm lens, I came across a few very intriguing options. First off, was the MUCH lower in price Canon 50mm F1.8-- Of course everyone's budget is different, and that might be the perfect lens for many, especially for a cheap and quick upgrade from the Canon kit lens. But I would suggest saving a bit more, a going with the F1.4 . Build quality feels fine, the images are nice and sharp, and it's quite speedy at F1.4 . There are third party lenses at the same focal length that may have the upper hand on certain characteristics... (thinking primarily about the Sigma 50mm). But the extra two hundred dollars...? I didn't think it was worth it."
+9260,2,Good book but vague,"The book had a lot of information about getting your dog tested for allergies. We have, so half of the book was useless to us. There are some good points. It does tell you how to make your own food (and which vitamins you need to add) which I am trying to do to save money on the prescription food. Overall if you are questioning if you dog has allergies it would be more informative than if you know it already has them."
+9261,1,Not What I Expected,"If you like repetition and an outdated Miami/San Fran rave club beat that never ends throughout the 2 disks then this cd is for you. It was not at all the type of mix of disco I anticipated but that may be my fault. There's no pulp fiction here, just a continuous boring repetitive dance beat on every track. You could just hit repeat on the 1st song and you'd get the same result..."
+9262,1,Old wine in new bottle.,"After reading all the Cussler's Dirk Pitt stories, this one makes the story predictable. Unlike the stories like cyclops, I was able to predict what happens next with out having to peep at the later pages. I am not sure if this is because I read all of Cussler's novels and am able to catch his rhythm. Dirk is being made more and more invincible, which makes it more of a fantasy tale than fiction. As usual, a new comer will like the novel, but for someone who has already read enough of Cussler's novel, this will be a big big disappointment."
+9263,2,Johnny is on his game!!!,"My brief review will simply state if you like The Pistols, Thin Lizzy and a host of artists that can really rock......don't miss this. "".....It doesn't pay to try. all the smart boys know why....."""
+9264,1,Garbage Can Material,"You have to be in the tiny range of Protestants and Vatican II Catholics, who love the present Vatican movement to merge Catholics and Lutherans as one religion, to buy any basic premise in this book. It will not teach you one valid thing that you can use to ""christianize"" anyone, and it can only serve as an emotional warm fuzzy if you fit the stated reader profile. You will not come away with any useful ""argument,"" but you could in a self delusion find yourself with your ""arguments"" pitted against others, such as well educated fundamental Christians and Traditional Catholics who have daggers five inches long.Buyer Beware. I threw my copy in the trash can."
+9265,1,Actiontec Call Waiting Modem,"I've had this modem for about four months and am very disappointed with the support updates. The software supplied for fax and message is very old and not easy to install. When it does install, the modem's voice capabilities are not recognized. The V92 drivers are difficult to install if you're not an experienced user. I've been checking the company's website since I purchased this modem and they have still not updated the drivers to easily install V92 capabilities. Email to support has never been responded to. I would not purchase another of their products."
+9266,2,Interesting read,"I, too, remember the Bette Davis/Charles Boyer film fondly and was glad to find this novel so many years later. I have to agree with others that the second half of the book lacks the compelling interest of the first; Rachel Field was writing about her own family in the latter, and she would naturally be just as interested in it as she was Henriette's life in Paris. I enjoyed the look at New York in the mid-nineteenth century, but the second half of the book just wasn't as compelling. If it had been, I would have given this one five stars. Still, anyone who enjoys historical fiction laced with a bit of romance (not much romance, and somewhat old-fashioned, but sweet) will find much to appreciate in this book."
+9267,2,"Throw away the mop, bucket, and chemicals","I have had this machine for several months now and have not regretted making the purchase. My husband thought I bought it to periodically steam clean the tile and was surprised to find that this machine REPLACES the mop and bucket.I do agree that the loudness can be a problem in closed in spaces (i.e. shower). Therefore, until I purchase earplugs, I will continue cleaning the shower the old fashioned way.I use this machine to steam the tile, ""dust"" the window blinds and other items that have small crevices, clean grout between the tile, and clean the highchair. There are other uses we have yet to try.We are pleased with the cleaning ability of this machine. It sure beats working with lukewarm/cold water. I feel things do get cleaner and there is no chemical residue afterward. Several hours later (unplugged) , the water in the tank is still very hot.Bottom line: even if you get this machine to just steam your floors, I think it is worth it."
+9268,2,Another 5 Star!,One of my favorite authors Janet is true to form with this great light hearted funny romantic book. Kept the pages turning and left me wanting more at the end... I want a series and it didn't look like it was part of one. I will have to research further. It was definitely worth the time.
+9269,2,Not the best they've done...but pretty damn good,Don't agree with the other review - this is expermiental and sparse - you've never heard anything like it. They didn't find their voice until Concerto. Get this though - you won't regret it.
+9270,1,Me Me Me,"I am giving this book 2 stars because the author writes fairly well, and with humor. I won't, however, be recommending it to anyone. This book is a narcissistic trip through life as told by the author, who wants us to empathize with her as she leaves her moneyed lifestyle in the wake of her divorce....and has the luxury of traveling the world as she works through her angst.The navel-gazing became too much for me. I can only wonder what might have happened if Ms. Gilbert had gone to Rome, India, and Bali to serve other people less fortunate than her. That would have made for a much more interesting story, and perhaps she would have grown as a person. As it was, coming along with her while she spent endless amounts of time contemplating herself was a true bore.Don't bother."
+9271,2,Best album yet,Jerry Lee sounds as good as ever. One of his best works to date. Great addition to my music library
+9272,1,It's a wast of money. Use the internet if you want a reference.,"OK. This book can teach you NOTHING about UNIX. It's about 800 pages, and 90% of it is just a list of commands, or a list of different options each command takes.If you actually want to learn something about UNIX this book is not for you. This book is just an unorganized reference."
+9273,2,Worth the Wait!!!,"I loved Paris on American Idol, so I couldn't wait for her CD to be released! She did NOT disappoint. Nice variety of songs, and her voice sounds great. I've listened to this while stuck in back-to-back freeway traffic and when working late at night, and of course, it is always playing on my iPod.All of the songs have something to offer; yes, even the one with Kevin (aka-Chicken Little), you can tell it was put in as a just for fun track, same with ""My Boyfriend's Back""-very cute and fun!This CD is definetly a keeper!"
+9274,1,There is a reason this thing is so cheap,This adapter seemed to interfere with other devices on my network. DHCP seemed to be effected. Connectivity was spotty (sometimes great other times zero..my other computers did not suffer this issue) Adapter started overheating after a couple of months of use. Then failed completely. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED>>>LOOK ELSEWHERE!
+9275,1,Kept hoping it get better but it did not...,"This book was not the typical Amy Tan novel I have grown to love. The characters in this book were flat and superifically developed. The plot was predictable and boring. I truly felt that the book had potential but failed in too many ways. I hope that Amy Tan's next book will return us to what she writes on the best: Chinese culture, mores, and traditions."
+9276,2,Dazzling,One of the greatest games I have ever played. Memorable in every way. A testament to the magic of gaming. Get it. Play it. Beat it.
+9277,1,Don't get it wet--yeah right!,"My son got this for his birthday. He used it once, and somehow bubbles got into the inner mechanisms and it stopped working. Even after removing the batteries and letting it dry out, no dice. Not sure if there was a leak in the bubble dispenser, or it was just poorly made, but my son only got one use out of it."
+9278,1,Nice people who can't sing,"I'm sure this group was lots of fun at parties and very pleasant conversationalists. However, they can't sing a note and can barely play their instruments. One of the worst records ever made, worse than Soft Machine, and that's saying something."
+9279,2,GREAT!!,THis book was awesome and almost perfect! It's about a girl who discises herself as a boy to become a knight. She hits puberty then and has to trust people with her secret! Read the other three too!AWESOME!
+9280,2,Nice Product,"When the Mrs came home with one of these things - I thought to myself, ""great, something else we can add to our museum of unused kitchen appliances. There's a spot for it next to the cusinart.""This time I was wrong. Throw a slab of meat in, and presto - perfect juicy, sans grease. I'm actually eating better, and sticking to South Beach Diet due to this. Fresh ground turkey, throw in some olives, sliced mushrooms. Grease and fat drains right out. I find I use this far more often than the frying pan. It's just better for certain types of foods. It cooks food evenly and is never greasy. Some say it's hard to clean but I disagee. It's no where near a bad as a dirty, sticky pan.It also has a great build quality. Simple but terrific product. The exception to the infomercial = junk rule. Ranks higher than the microwave in my book. Every kitchen needs one."
+9281,2,This one will stay with me awhile,"Beautiful, evocative, slow (in a good way), and ever so memorable video. It's about a Midwestern farm family of a dour old man and his two sons. A tragic even in their past has left each of them wounded in different ways. When the bank sends an unexpected foreclosure notice, a mystery comes to light that irrevocably changes them and their relationships to each other and their community. Funny, sad, thoughtful...and wonderful."
+9282,1,Not for long time Tom and Jerry fans,I grew up watching Tom and Jerry and I couldn't get through the first 15 minutes of it. I love the old time Tom and Jerry's when the music spoke for what was happening in the cartoon. This would probably be a good one for little kids that aren't very familiar with the way the older cartoons are.
+9283,2,Puts most American vengeance films to shame,"Like his previous film, the Action/Western rompThe Good, the Bad, the Weird, Ji-woon Kim's ""I Saw the Devil"" leaves me feeling that I saw an almost-but-not-quite great film that just dragged the story out a bit too long. Still, it puts most American vengeance films to shame with its commitment to the theme and the extremes to which it is taken."
+9284,2,One of my Favorite Woods Books,I have read all of Stuart Woods books and this one and palindrome seem to have become my favorites. I recently reread New York Dead and it was once again a fresh and enjoyable read. I had a hard time putting it down for the second time. Like most of his books they are are a good fast read with characters who pull you into the story.
+9285,1,Made in China,"Are they beautiful? Yes. Are they heavy-duty? Yes. Are they helping me not buy plastic disposable straws that are also made in China? Well, yes. But...The impetus for even considering buying glass or stainless steel straws was when I looked at the bag of plastic straws we always buy and saw that they were made in China. I really wanted to buy the $30 Glass Dharma straws but this seemed like a more economical bargain. Now I know why.Be warned - these SS straws are made in China. So instead of getting the green, non-toxic, BPA-free drinking straw experience that I was seeking, now I have to worry about toxins, chemicals, poor manufacturing, and every other potential problem with products made in China.Next time, I'll just spring for the Glass Dharma straws. The $20 difference is probably worth it."
+9286,2,Ok for 99%,This router is easy to setup. It is not a stateful packet firewall. It does not permit private LAN addresses other than on the 192.168 network. It will not allow a statically assigned DHCP address leases (for a print server perhaps).It is fast and has a DMZ port as well as a backup modem port -for when your cable provider goes away.If you dont need the serious features this firewall is probably just fine.
+9287,1,"Great for disposables, useless for cloth diapers","Doesn't require special bags, which is a plus. This worked pretty well for the first year of our daughter's life, while we were using disposables, although it doesn't contain the smell as much as we'd like.But once we switched to cloth, FORGET IT! This diaper pail was out of the nursery in a flash. It was constantly jamming, requiring us to open the whole thing up and pull dirty wipes and diapers out of the drum mechanism. Yuck.We're better served by a flip-top trash can, frankly. Considering that we bought this pail specifically because it said it would work for cloth diapers, too, I'm pretty disappointed."
+9288,2,It's smaller than my cell phone,"I absolutely have fell in love with this machine, and I have been through many digital cameras. It takes amazing pictures in the dark, fires up fast, and doesn't take long between pictures. I got tired of taking photos of my kids soccer games, and by the time my fuji finally took the picture, the kids were long gone. I have no regrets, well worth it."
+9289,1,cheap parts,The cooler is fine it keeps things cold. The parts the hinges the snap that holds the lid closed. The plastic strap attached to the lid. The plastic handle have not lasted and had to be replaced. The snap on the lid has broken three times. I have looked at replacing it with a metal one but than one of the large side carrying handles broke. So I am done. This cooler is kind of like a big razor. Its the parts replacement that costs you. I didn't abuse this cooler I took it from the car set it on the porch and it stays in the garage. My last Igloo cooler.
+9290,1,A fascinating look into the mind of fascism and nazism,"This book shows clearly the inner mental workings of extreme right-wing fascist Nazi-esque philosophy. By elevating the ego and selfish interests above all else, it prevents anyone from cooperating together on a common cause -- the perfect society to be ruled by an iron-fisted ""benevolent"" fascist dictatorship, an idea which Ayn Rand quite openly embraced. It's no surprise that her works, including Anthem, Atlas Shrugged and The Fountainhead, are extremely popular in militia/survivalist/skinhead/white supremacy circles, embraced as much as ""The Turner Diaries"" and other similar works."
+9291,2,a missing part of american culture revealed,"if they taught this kind of history in school, I don't think i would have ever been bored enough to draw stupid comics of stick figures running about the pages of my notes and classwork.... a truly inspiring journey into the souls of some truly brave people in their journey to break on through....."
+9292,1,Sturdy but uncomfortable.,"The keyboard does what it promises. It's very sturdy and looks like it will last a long time, but I have a few issues with it:The keys are very loud. Some people disagree, but this is the loudest keyboard I can recall using.Another thing that bothers me is that the keys are much harder to press than I'd like compared to previous keyboards I've used. Its a strain on my hands, but they're very small so others may not have the same problem.Another reason for this may be that it's a fairly tall keyboard with no room to rest your palms, and my hands are forced to be angled upwards. (rather than comfortably above the keys.)Maybe it's because my previous keyboard was particularly quiet and easy-to-press, but I really don't care for the features of this keyboard. It's just not comfortable for me."
+9293,1,Does Not Have Spanish Subtitles,"Very disappointed - I bought the DVD because I am a Spanish student and was hoping to watch the telenovella in Spanish while reading the subtitles in Spanish. (Seeing the words as I hear them helps a lot.) If you are buying this product because the descriptoin states that Spanish and English subtitles are available - do NOT buy the DVD. English subtitles are available, but Spanish subtitles are not. I will not buy anymore telenovelas unless someone else has reviewed them and assured me that subtitles are available in Spanish. Nunca vez!"
+9294,1,A Lost Treasure,"I've never read a more disapointing ending in my life! This book is not worth reading. There's a herione that charms everyone with her breathtaking beauty and carries herself like Aubrey Hepburn while not showing any of the wear and tear of being a divorced single-mother that hates her job! Then there's the loathsome FBI agent haunted by one of the dumbest lines of logic I've ever seen! Then there's the sadistic spook that kills everyone he comes in contact with, yet spares the life of his nemesis and lets him tag along to foible his plans! Imagine seeking a lost treasure chest only to find it and destroy it before you even see what's inside. That's what this book is about. Terrible."
+9295,1,load times ruin fun,The PSP version of this game has the worst load times. It takes forever just to turn the game on. The interuptions ruin the game experience and make it frustrating instead of fun.
+9296,2,Great Toaster,"This is the best toaster i've ever owned. i got so tired of all the cheap models out there, you can toast your bread in this over and over again and it won't over heat. I've owned mine for 4 years and it's still going strong!!!"
+9297,1,Basic Portuguese,"I was disappointed in this book because it isn't nearly as comprehensive as the ""Basic...for travelers"" books I purchased earlier for German, French, Spanish and Italian. For example, nowhere in this book is there a word for bathroom, restroom, etc. And I think it's pretty important to know how to ask that question in a foreign land!!"
+9298,2,Rob and Big seasons 1 and 2,Rob and Big are awesome. My boyfriend and I just love the show. Their funny and so are their animals. I wonder if they'll keep doing the show now that Big is having a baby. Who knows maybe we'll all be surprised. Everyone should watch them!!!
+9299,1,"Pretty, comfy, but won't work IN the car!","I bought this item and at first, I loved it! But after three adults tried to sit in it to tighten(not at once!) and it still moves inches, and I mean inches, side to side, I became quickly uncomfortable!! I tried it in another car and had the same problem. I think it may be where the latch system comes out...there just may be too much give when it stems from the back itself, instead of the base. I really can't recommend it. I took it back."
+9300,2,A good film with lots of laughs.,I've had people tell me they didnt like the movie but I thought it was a good flick. Jim is very funny as usual and at the very least I would recommend a rent if not a buy. If you a JC fan you should def buy it.
+9301,2,Some of my best friends are huge rabbits.,"I saw this film initially as a child, but all these years later, I now realize the importance of being ""pleasant,"" as Elwood Dowd, friend to all, states.Not just a funny, enjoyable family film -- but a wonderful positive reinforcement of the childlike (not childish!) approach to life that would keep us all sane, if we only give it a chance.Highly recommeded to all who suspect we've got friends that others might not see. Charming!"
+9302,2,Way to Go!!!!,This product was delivered in a timely manner and was just as the description had listed... Positive purchase experience.
+9303,1,terrible purchase,"The GPS was out dated, and when I ordered the seller never said anything about the need to buy or get extra software or CD to update. No cradle, my brother had to buy it. Even with the CD from Garmin did not work properly. Terrible purchase."
+9304,1,Don't be deceived,"If you want to know what's going on with this planet - read the Bible. The Urantia Papers and the Holy Scriptures are NOT complementary nor compatible. If you want to read about a divine revelation regarding this planet and the human race get ""A Divine Revelation of Hell"" and ""A Divine Revelation of Heaven"" by Mary K. Baxter. Time will certainly tell who's papers are true or not, although God's redeemed are already in the know."
+9305,1,ridiculously bad,"This is one of the poorest guidebooks on Brazil, if not the worst. And I've used all of them. For starters, it is horribly out of date. But the major problem with this book is that it focuses on random road-side towns while barely paying attention to popular and happening spots (AKA places where people are actually interested in going). It is as if the writers took at trip around, wrote about a few obscure places where they stayed and disregarded the rest.The best guidebooks on Brazil right now are the newish Let's Go (although they tend to only focus on major towns) and the new Lonely Planet."
+9306,1,"Distractingly artsy, and that's too bad.","Good and interesting story with absolutely top-notch actors, continually interrupted by obnoxious Broadway-ish musical numbers. Many of the performances were good, but many more were the type of stereotypical NY elitist silliness that I feared when I put this disc into the PS3. This movie has nothing on Dreamgirls, 1776, Hairspray or The Music Man. Heck, I'd force myself to watch High School Musical before watching this thing again. I like musicals. I didn't like Chicago."
+9307,2,A Most Enlightening Read,"Loved this book. It's a really quick read. Very informative. As a new hospice volunteer it gave me insight into ways to be supportive and helpful. I would highly recommend this book for everyone, caregivers and professionals."
+9308,1,WARNING! MISLEADING AD! I'M SO DISAPPOINTED WITH THIS SELLER!,"Please do not buy from this seller. I ordered this product thinking that this was a regular nursing pillow but when I received it, it was an inflatable pillow. The description of the product is not complete. I left a message for them to cancel my order but nobody returned my call. I called them back and the item was already shipped. I was told to just return the product when I receive it which I did and I found out that this item is not returnable. Their customer service people are IMPOLITE! They won't even let me talk to their manager. I will never order from this seller (HAPPY MOTHERS) again. I'm not happy at all. I just wasted my time and money on something that i didnt like. Please don't be mislead in buying from this seller too."
+9309,1,Review from a 10 year old,"I really enjoyed the book so I was excited to see it was made into a movie. Unfortunately, the movie is not near as good as the book. The movie was confusing at points and sometimes even silly. The book was much better. I'm glad we decided to rent it first."
+9310,1,Poor Quality recording and sound selection,"Not to impressed with t5he video quality and song selection here, seems to do a great talent an injustice"
+9311,2,Good film for whole family!,"Awesome picture and audio quality. The central character rose a bit quickly from zero to hero, but you can't deny the appeal of the detail in the animation and the funny one liners. Loved Mantis-one of my favorite characters! The actors and voices were distinct; the characters seemed to stand on their own, unlike some of the other animated films, where it almost seems like the characters are cartoon versions of the actors. Very cool fight scenes and important message that appeals to parents and kids-strength of character is more important than some ""secret ingredient""-a person directs his/her own course. Thoroughly enjoyed this film!"
+9312,2,Great for my golden.,We buy this product for our soon to be 9 year old golden. He is in good physical shape but has the occasional sore joint. One of the babies a day keeps him feeling good. Our Veterinarian recommended it.
+9313,1,If it was all music they would have had my money by now.,"Wouldn't it be great to have five DVDs packed full of music segments from SNL? Or, how about just one DVD for each season, with all the music performances?I'm sure glad I read reviews. If I had just bought this based on the title I would have been very dissapointed.If it was just music, I could put the DVD in my system at home or work and just crank the music! Or, I could watch it too if I wanted to. But what's the point of calling it ""25 Years of Music"" and have it be a lot of other stuff?"
+9314,1,BUYER BEWARE!,"This product is awful and looks NOTHING like the picture! When it arrived, it was a big ratty mass of fur--not shiny hair like the picture shows.I can understand the necessity for a ""no return"" policy on wigs, but Costume Craze refused to even take a look at the wig I purchased or consider exchanging it.I tried to comb it out with a wig brush, but after 2 hours of trying, I threw it away.Don't waste your time or money."
+9315,1,Boring Boring Boring,"I'll start off by saying I'm normally a sports gamer, and I don't typically like RPGs (GTA is great, if you would put it in that genre.) But when I bought my PS3, I decided I'd give this game a shot since the reviews were fantastic and it won game of the year.All I can say is, I'm glad I bought it used. I played the game for a couple of days, trying to get myself interested, but I just couldn't. The graphics are pretty average for todays standards (this game came out quite awhile ago) and you spend an awful lot of time as a character in a mostly silent world wandering around hoping that something interesting happens. In short, it's boring. Very disappointed."
+9316,1,Do NOT Buy This Movie,"I honestly couldn't watch more than fifteen minutes of this train wreck. The writing is terrible to the point of nausea, and Lex, Lois, and Braniac are so far out of their established characters that it isn't funny. And I mean that literally, since the writer seems to be trying to play them for laughs.Had I seen this on Cartoon Network before purchasing it (I'd pre-ordered it the day I'd heard about it, months ago, based on the strength of the original series and Justice League), I'd have never wasted my money."
+9317,2,Decent dvd,"This is a halloween special of Chris Angel. Although it isn't as long as I was hoping, it delivers an entertaining experience."
+9318,2,Keogh is no Ebert. This is a brilliant nightmare.,"Don't believe the hype in Tom Keogh's review of this film. The mix-media format, acting, writing, direction, and most of all the messages here are first-rate. I know it's all-too chilling, upsetting and unsettling, but that's what it HAS TO BE. It's the ultimate wake-up call of its kind."
+9319,2,"Nice price, works well and arrived sooner than expected","After ordering a computer that had a VGA port listed, but didn't have one when it arrived, I ordered this cable to be able to connect my monitor. It was less expensive than what was available in stores with shipping costs and works well. My only challenge was that I had to wait for it to arrive. It did arrive a couple of days sooner than expected. A good deal for a good price."
+9320,1,good product but came damaged,I love the product but it came damaged I will not be ordering anything else like this from amazon.
+9321,2,Magical,"Spectacular photography and production! Photo after photo takes you into the bullring, into the beauty and art of bullfighting. I love this book because the images are so surreal and yet so real and beautiful. The mystique of beloved España has never been so well captured, despite the fact that this book is an in-depth look at one part of the culture. My husband loves this book because it covers bullfighting so well, with a technical variety. But I have been seduced by the beauty alone. Essays complement the photography perfectly, and Ricardo Sanchez shines!"
+9322,2,excellent,"A must buy. I cant say anything bad about it. Love the battery life, uses camcorder battery. I would highly recommend it. Excellent picture quality."
+9323,2,touching and heart warming,"I think we've gotten so used to Jennifer Aniston playing Rachel Green on ""Friends"" that many people didn't give ""The Good Girl"" a chance when it was released. Big mistake, because Aniston is remarkable. As Justine Last, a bored employee at the Retail Rodeo, Aniston is simply remarkable, embracing the spirit of a small town girl in all its glory. As her depressed lover, Jake Gyllenhaal is also good, making us root for him while at the same time asking, ""what is the matter with him?"" Writer Mike White's script is thoughtful and full of sharp dialogue, and director Miguel Artera keeps the story flowing while allowing the actors to fully develop their characters. For everyone involved- WELL DONE!!!"
+9324,1,What a waste of time,Poor research. Writing to make his points not from facts. Shame on you Michael Moore.
+9325,2,Cooking my way through Julie and Julia style,"Since getting this book a year ago, I would not rate a single recipe as bad. It's been one of the most consistently good recipe books I've tried. This makes it into my Dessert Island cookbook list right up there with Deborah Madison's Vegetarian Cooking for Everyone.I have decided that I'm not trying nearly enough recipes fast enough (1 or 2 per week), so am going to start the second week of March to cook my way through the whole thing, minus the recipes with ingredients not in my diet.The nutritional information is perfect for people on the Weight Watcher's diet for point counting, and for folks on low-sodium, low-fat, etc. diets."
+9326,1,Not worthy of the award,"I am totally blown away by the thought of a 14-year-old girl being romantically attracted to and interested in a man old enough to be her grandfather. And all of this just ""hit her"" when she hugged him? Not very believable to me. Why would something like this be written for children?"
+9327,2,One of the best toys by leapfrog,"My son was 6 months old when he got this toy, he is now almost 10 months old and he loves it. He spent lots of time just sitting on the floor with it when i first got it now he stands right up next to it and plays with it all the time. I would deffinitly recomend this toy to anyone who wants a break from motherhood or fatherhood once in a while."
+9328,2,"Good plot, suspense",I think P.C. has done an excellent job with this book. There are a lot of facts about forensics and the investigative efforts of Dr. Scarpetta are well founded. I truly enjoyed this book and could not let go of it until I finished it!
+9329,1,Arrived with broken handle - poorly casted.,"Looking at the reviews below, this product seems to routinely arrive with at least one broken handle. The boxes are not properly shipped, and the casting of the pans themselves appears poor. Returned the one I received (with broken handle) and went back to using a stone."
+9330,2,Great game!,"I had this game before and bought it again and enjoyed it thoroughly! Do keep in mind, it is a older game so it slows down your computer a bit."
+9331,1,Not Clearly Written - Don't Know What Book Other Reviewers R,"I am very disappointed in this book. It takes you from one step to another without clearly defining the correct input that needs to be made in each lesson to make the lessons perform correctly. A good example of the missing information is to compare the finished lesson with the final products made available by the author: in several lessons there is a huge gap. HUGE! I have been looking on Macromedia's Site for updates and/or clarifications, and can not find any. This book is a giant frustration and you will need to investigate the difference in code between the final product you create via the lessons and what is presented by author as the finished product. The good news is that you can see the finished works you are supposed to create in each lesson, as they are included on the CD. The bad news is that you will need another book to explain what the basis of the code you where not introduced to means."
+9332,2,What you'd expect,These allow you to bump up the resolution of the Wii a little which is nice. It makes a small difference which I appreciated but it certainly isn't a must buy.
+9333,1,Cheap and Nasty,I just received these and am appalled! The metal is very thin and the edges are unfinished and so sharp I almost cut my finger while trying to wash them. I cannot believe a respected brand like Matfer would sell such a low quality product. The price is exorbitant for what you get. I live in Hong Kong and the return postage would be prohibitive or else I would return them straight away. Do NOT buy any Matfer baking molds as they all appear to be very badly made.
+9334,2,horse whisperer book,"I was asked to purchase this book as a gift for a horse owner. After I ordered it and read the reviews I decided to order one for myself as well. Both books came on time and were in great condition. I've just finished reading my copy and thoroughly enjoyed it. I am a former horse owner and feel I would have benefited from Buck's advice at that time. I would be very interested in attending one of his clinic but it looks like he is booked solid for the rest of the year! Too many people, both in the past and in the present do not regard the horse as a sensitive companion - and you have to understand that as they are a prey animal they have a lot fear that you need to be aware of. they do not deserve the harsh treatment they have been getting - through neglect, abandonment, or the whole idea of slaughter."
+9335,1,LIVE?,"No Talent, spoon fed, manufactured groups done sing LIVE so i can imagine how lame this is and everytime the Backdoor boys take the stage."
+9336,2,Rock solid hardware,"I love my nw8440. It's built like a rock and just exudes quality engineering. There is nothing cheap about it. I have dropped mine TWICE (both times a 2 to 3 foot fall onto carpeted flooring) and it never skipped a beat.The nw8440 is now discontinued but it's replacement models (all start with ""nw"" in the HP lineup) all seem to be built to the same standards. You pay a premium but you are getting a machine that is a true road warrior."
+9337,2,Odd but Good,"This movie sort of has the same feel as Event Horizon. Crazy story and and even crazier ending. If you like horror drama then you'll probably like this. I had to watch this a few times to really get what was going on. Overall I like it and would suggest watching, if your a Dennis Quaid fan."
+9338,1,disk err,"I have used verbatim for years, but recent purchases and attemps to record have produced DISK ERR, FAILURE TO RECORD, FAILS TO FINALIZE. This was true of Verbatim purchased from Sam's Club and this order from Amazon.I have checked out my recorder and it records just fine on Memorex(which is not the brand I prefer)."
+9339,1,"Good cutting saw, but not very durable","A cousin of mine bought this saw and we have had very good luck with it. Infact, I liked it so much that I went to buy my own. Well, my first saw came and after getting it out of the box I noticed the handle was cracked right where the handle meets the saw. I understand accidents happen in shipping so I sent it back. My new replacement saw came within 5 days. After I opened the box I noticed this saw was cracked in the exact same place! Even though the saw does perform quite well and is extremely portable I have to give it a pretty low rating since the plastic construction around the handle is not very well manufactured. I since went with the Bosch 10"" sliding miter saw. Very good saw and extremely durable. For the few extra bucks its worth it.. I hope delta re-engineers this saw to be compatible in quality with the rest of their products.."
+9340,1,What is wrong with you people,"This is the worst game to ever *cough* grace *cough* *hack* a systems library of games. All you ever do is swim in a completely bland environment. Then, you engage in simple, boring, and extremely repetitive combat. The cutscenes, if you can call them that, are just comic style pictures with extremely corny dialogue. I HATE CORNY DIALOGUE. The only reason this game merits a single star is because the submarine fights, that kinda resemble something like fun, add a little variety. In a pinch, you could have more fun shooting yourself in the foot. Nuff said."
+9341,2,Great DVD,Definitely worth the 23 dollars in my opinion. This dvd has some good fights with some exciting endings.
+9342,2,"High quality, but wrist strap access is difficult","I got this case for my SD700 IS. Fit & finish is excellent. I got it from an Amazon Marketplace seller for $13.88. That price compares great with the generic canvas compact camera cases that sell for $10, since this one is high quality leather.My only complaint regards the wrist strap, which is why I didn't give it 5 stars. You need to coax the strap through the hole in the lid to remove the camera from the case, and thread the strap through the hole in the lid to return the camera to the case. Your other choices are to not use the wrist strap at all, or have the strap stick out the side of the case, which looks kind of dumb.Otherwise this is a great case, I am happy I bought mine!"
+9343,1,bitter and not that yum,"bought these for a group of family who loves coffee / tea and was visiting my home. the packing is awesome and the cookies look very preciously packed.however I wasn't impressed by them at all taste wise. found them to be bitter and lots of essence. was disappointed as I was really counting on them and thought with the packing and reviews, I had found the right one."
+9344,2,K&H Lectro Soft heated outdoor bed can save a cat's life.,We've been caring for an abandoned cat since June of 2012. This cat was a mess and probably near starving. The difference between the way Thumper looks now compared to when he showed up on our porch is astounding.It's been a particularly cold Michigan winter and I was so worried about Thumper possibly freezing to death. We had a nice soft sides cat shelter and that coupled with the K&H; Lectro heated bed just might have saved Thumper from freezing. We're very grateful to K&H; and heartily recommend this high quality product.
+9345,2,A desert island CD,"I'd take this one to that mythic desert island. The one-two punch of ""David Watts"" and ""Death of a Clown"" are just the beginning of a fantastic album. Often compared to the Beatles' ""Revolver"" and the Beach Boys' ""Pet Sounds,"" this album might even have an edge on them, imho. Just one question, what is ""Harry Rag"" about?"
+9346,1,Worked for one day,"I am very open-minded and decided to give this product a chance - despite the reviews. I paid $22 for it and considered taking it back at first. The first day it worked all right but the second pill later in the day gave me a pressure headache. My appetite was suppresed mildly for the first two days but nothing the following days, in fact I felt hungrier, weird. I tried. Now I am trying NV."
+9347,1,I've had the lp for years. It's still in new condition.,I do not understand the enthusiasm for this collection of crappy tunes. This is The Stones at their worst. Skip it.
+9348,2,brilliant,"This rendition gives me goosebumps. I usually take that to mean its as good as it gets. If you don't have the Pinnock & company version yet, get it -- other versions seem sleepy by comparison. The viola-cello counterpart is played with such feeling, it seems to bring out a story about the four seasons of love more so than simply the weather. Brilliant playing."
+9349,1,Wasn't what I thought it was,This CD is lousy. None of the music sounds raunchy AT ALL! Listen to Bill Dogget
+9350,2,Best sitcom on TV,"This show is brilliant! Lucy and Ethel reincarnated in 2012!!!!! Can't wait for this release, the interaction between Max and Caroline is awesome."
+9351,2,"Great live album, but...","If you want a sampling of AC/DC live this is a great album. I would, however, recommend the 23 track 2 disc version that is also available.This live album has a great selection of tracks (Back in Black, You SHook Me All Night Long, Highway to Hell, Dirty Deeds, For Those Aobut to Rock, among them) but the 2 disc version is more complete.Including all of the songs on this version and also Sin City, Fire Your Guns, Jailbreak, Razor's Edge, Are you Ready, High Voltage, Let There be Rock, and Bonny.For Jailbreak, High Voltage, and Let There be Rock alone the 2 disc set is the better buy."
+9352,2,Really takes you back!!! A-doo-run-run,"Are you kidding me? After growing up reading the Hardy Boys and Nancy Drew books, I ran home every Sunday night to watch this series when ABC put it on TV.When it became available on DVD, I immediately purchased it for my children to enjoy (and for me to re-enjoy!).The mysteries are a joke, but the hair sytles, fashion, and wholesome language (something not enjoyed in todays TV) is a great time for EVERYONE in the family.I highly recommend!!!WHEN IS SEASON 3 COMING TO DVD???"
+9353,1,Authors' mean spirited commentary hurts otherwise great book,To read the story of Eaton's is to read the history of Canada and Toronto in particular. What starts off as a well-researched and interesting story is increasingly hurt by the authors' obvious dislike of the family. (Whom he admits in the prologue did not want the book written) Still the book was interesting and filled with titbits that Canadians in particular will enjoy learning. The authors' synopsis that Eaton's failed because the family never took to the time to really understand retail could also have been applied to his own attempt to chronicle a business he never seems to have a grasp on.
+9354,1,bad company,"Breast pump did not work. Cannot return to store due to DHEC requirements. Company has not been willing to replace. Replaced tubes and valves and that wasn't the problem. Then said ""will mail new motor and you will have Wednesday"". That was on Monday. Guess what? Today is Thursday and no motor in the mail today. (Don't promise in two days unless you're shipping that way.) In addition, said, ""Mail us the bad one and then we'll mail you a new one."" Why should WE have to pay shippping?E-mailed. They wrote back and said to call them. Already called twice with no result. This company should have made good from the ""get go"" with a new breast pump in a new box, the works. Not wishy-wash around and put us off. If I can read a label and see ""the first years"", ""learning curve"", or ""RC2 Brands"" on a product in the future, I will not buy it."
+9355,2,versaware,I love this product. I had the old fashioned crockpot and wanted something a little more up to date. I am really glad I chose this. Having a timer is great but the best thing about it is being able to put it on the stove and than directly into the base and start cooking. It saves on pans and it saves time. Food turns out great.
+9356,2,Fantastic Workout !!!,"As a FIRM fanatic for the last 3 years, I had to take a moment to share my opinion on this DVD.Allie, in my humble opinion, is the very best of the FIRM instructors at preparing the user to smoothly run through the workout without a level of sheer frustration. She gives you proper form, breathing recommendations, and a smooth transition throughout this workout.You never stop moving from one set of weights (if not a beginning) to another to work different muscle groups. I have only used this DVD once, so far, but I already know that it will become a well used workout.Well worth the money and time!!!!"
+9357,1,Wackest Jay-Z album ever,Jay-Z put out this wack album and I hate it...I gave mine away because it was not worth keeping on my shelf...I think Jay-Z didn't put as much time and thought into this album...He sold strictly cause of his name and New York...
+9358,2,This CD is awesome!,"This is one of my favorite CD's. I had the pleasure of seeing them in concert and they sound just as good live and they are also very friendly. The harmonies are right on target. ""Love worth fighting for"" has to be one of the best songs ever. I love these guys!"
+9359,2,functional 3-prong cord,"This 3-prong cord works well. Each of the three plugs have a latch to close the plug when it's not in use. I plugged in a computer, radio and lamp at the same time and it works.However, 2-prong cords can only be inserted halfway, but the connection is functional."
+9360,2,One of my Favs,Gosh i must have read this book in one day i mean its just such an original and well put book about Susanna Kaysen and what she went through in an mental institution. Its just a fascinatng book i really couldnt put it down i just really ate it up. I mean the way Susanna captures the institution and all her friends is really put in a way that i cant really describe. Its just a wonderful book and also the movie is pretty good too.
+9361,2,Best Game Ever from Spongebob Squarepants,"I think it is fun through out the game. You can't pick or play the game until you unlock it. It gets fun at the end in your try outs for a movie part. You can go paintballing, fishing, soccer, and many other cool stuff. It keeps interested and if you beat it quickly you can try another level(silly, middle, and hard). There are lots of games like they have many mini games like in Mario Party. You also have lots of rolls you could get. It says you could have four players, but to have 4 human players you need an adapter."
+9362,2,Love it!,Kris Christopherson is an amazing artist. I have followed his career since he started. Love his music and will be buying more of his CD's.
+9363,1,avoid ultraviolet digital copies,"Avoid ultraviolet digital copies, they are more trouble than they are worth. Purchase a version without a UV digital copy. Their customer service is terrible.This is a fantastic movie. It is a great adaptation of the book and brings Salinder more to the center of the story, something I felt was lacking in the Swedish version.I am sorry to give this great film one star, but I have been ignored by Flixster customer service and hope someone at UV will read this and see how angry they are making some of their customers.Really, buy a version without UV digital copy. It's a great movie. Don't let the digital copy anger you like it has me."
+9364,2,Great Facial Softener,"This is a great product to use in the winter. Helped me stay moisturized through cold, winter months. Works very well with the whole Shisiedo skin care and make up line."
+9365,1,Great Movie but Amazon HD kept crashing,Of course the movie is AWESOME but Amazon HD kept crashing. Eventually I gave up and re-rented it in non-HD which worked better.
+9366,1,Unimpressed - Terrible sound quality and distortion,"I bought one for my daughter as a Christmas gift. Returned the first one due to poor sound quality and distortion. Amazon was great and shipped another one next day. Unfortunately the sound quality of the second unit was as bad as the first. I do not understand the reviews that this system receives, the only positive id the design. If you keep the volume down there is no noticeable distortion, but if you want to use this device to listen to music at a comfortable sound level than you are wasting your money. Very disappointing product."
+9367,2,Love Hidden Faces series,This was a great book. I stumbled upon this author and now have read almost everything she writes. Good christian fiction.
+9368,1,Disappointed,"I was looking for a great, affordable 5-button mouse. This one worked right off the bat--once I plugged it in. I was surprised that it came with a floppy disk with the drivers on it---who even USES floppys anymore!? I was able to dl drivers off the website though, so that wasn't a big deal. My biggest disappointment with this mouse is the fact that it is SOOOOO jumpy! It skips ALL over the place, and that is REALLY annoying. For this ONE reason, a very big one (to me), I rate it at a 2."
+9369,1,WARNING: This CD will not fit into some players,"I love FF and was excited to listen to this CD. The format of it is a Dual Disc CD/DVD therefore it is thicker and will not fit in some players. There is a *very* small warning about this on the back and is something most people won't notice, I know I didn't. I listen to all my CDs on my ipod now, so I tried to load this CD into my laptop. It didn't seem to fit so I gave it a little push (I know, stupid) thinking it would still work. Well, it got stuck, wouldn't play and wouldn't eject. I finally managed to remove it with a pair of tweezers and now it is all scratched up and most likely useless. Should have just gotten it from itunes."
+9370,2,MAKO'S MANY MEN!,"Mako's presents us with his latest collection of handsome young men in this Stonewall Inn Pocket size edition book. There are 48 photos of young, attractive men covering a wide range of head shots, formal compositions, and in your face nudes. Mako's has a keen eye and talent for bringing the stark reality of the male nude in natural poses to his audience. It makes you wonder what these guys are really like or would that destroy the fantasy. Just look at the facial expressions.Stonewall put out a series of these small pocket size books by many photographers. A great idea, and ""Makos"" is one of the best in the series and I highly recommend it."
+9371,2,"Witty, fast-paced and totally enjoyable","The book is totally fun! I purchased it without knowing much about it, other than being on a bookshelf of ""Staff recommendations"" in a book store. I'm a big reader of John Irving and Pat Conroy and find ""Straight Man"" easily compared to characters belonging to Conroy and Irving without all the whacked out and twisted plots, but still maintaining character depth and interest. Someone suggested this might not be a ""chick"" book.. but I'm one chick who has passed it along to other chick friends knowing they too will thoroughly enjoy reading ""Straight Man"". There seems to be only sadness and dysfunction on the Best Seller List these days - lighten up your subject matter for a change. You'll enjoy this one!"
+9372,1,not a jawbone,"this a rip off item this is not a jawbone, this product is a cheap knock off. and is priced high there the real thing"
+9373,1,what a bore,"It's cute. It's funny. That's it. The jokes get old after awhile, or they've all been shown in the commercials. It isn't anything new, the story line is dull simply because you know that they're going to end up happy in the end. The only thing that the movie has going for it is characterization, particularly that of the father. The funny parts, on second glance, are merely amusing, and nothing more."
+9374,2,Get the Hang of it and IT KICKS A**,"If you like a good action movie: Armageddon, The Rock, etc., then you will love this game. Not only do get to sit and watch a good action movie (you can skip pass the animation sequences if you want), but you get to fight in the movie as well. Once you can master the gameplay and it becomes comfortable for you to move around and fight people, this game is great. It takes an hour or so to really get the hang of it, but once you do, the different camera angles, weapons, stealth methods, and enemies makes this game well worth the buy. I never played the first Metal Gear (what cave was I living in?) but from this game being my first Solid Snake experience, I would say definitely buy it."
+9375,2,Solving the mystery of the pie crust,"I first stumbled across this book when I was trying to learn to make a pie crust. I had tried everything from the little sticks to the frozen crusts, and nothing came out the way I wanted it. I found this cookbook on a shelf in the used book store, and liked the way the instructions were written. I tried the pie crust instructions inside the book cover and was delighted with the results.Try anything in this book, from the maple pecan pie to the chocolate tea bread to the snickerdoodle cookies, and I think you will find the instructions simple, straightforward and easy to follow, resulting in a pastry you can be proud to serve to anyone."
+9376,1,"like every other gamepad I had for the pc, a piece of junk","This pad fall in the catagorey of all the games pads for the pc that I have tried. CRAP!!!! It broke after a week of play. The software that came with it was good, but all the software in the world can't make up. I threw it into the street in frustration. Why can't they make a durable game pad for pc's? They have them for console systems."
+9377,1,"5"" Loofah Body Scrubber - 2 pack","Sorry guys, this product is too hard for tender skin. We would like to see your buyers procure productsmade here in the USA, not China. Very disappointed in your choice and quality in these Loofahs. Will try elsewhere."
+9378,1,Thoroughly overated earbud,"I've read many a review waxing on about these earbuds but having listened and compared them to many other units imho they are overated and overpriced. They seem totally unbalanced with a muddy boomy bottom end and a high end that tends towards sibilance. Some bass improvement can be made by putting small pieces of tape over the three holes on the back of each earbud, but I much prefer Koss KSC-50 and Sennheiser MX 500. If you absolutely have to have an ear seal I can't recommend anything more than the Etymotic ER4S although pricey."
+9379,2,Outstanding,"This is one of the best books on eastern thought I have read. Clear, concise and easy to comprehend. A must have for anyone interested in this topic."
+9380,2,Wonderful results,"After doing this video two times a week for a month, I saw results in overall tone and lengthening of the muscle. Balance ball excercises are challeging but gives you something to shoot for!"
+9381,2,"Slower than the 1st season, but watchout for the last show!","BSG is still the best Sci-Fi series bar none. This season is a little slower than the previous one. But the darkly written story lends to BSG's REAL feeling. Just when all the different factions finally work out their differences along comes a new element to make things more complex for the fleet. Near the end of the season another Battlestar arrives. Is that a good thing or a bad thing? Grace Park is still stunning and beautiful.http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0661825/Even though it is a little slower than the earlier season, the last show will blow you out of the water! I can't wait for the next season.I also liked Enterprise (Before Kirk). At first it was stupid, but by the 4th show it was awesome.In short, if you like Sci-Fi, buy season 1, and season 2. The will be the prizes of your collection."
+9382,1,Rather Disappointing,"I was rather disappointed by this book. I was expecting it to be about a childhood spent living at the Playboy Mansion, but it was really more focused on the drugs she used, who she slept with, and naming as many famous people as she could. You learn a lot about her highly dysfunctional family, but there are a lot of better memoirs to be read if that's what you're interested in."
+9383,1,WHEEL COVER...,"IT IS VERY CUTE, HOWEVER I HAVE A NEW CIVIC, IT FITS BUT HAS MAYBE AN INCH EXTRA. I WOULD RECOMMEND IT FOR ONLY THOES WITH LARGER STEERING WHEELS."
+9384,1,steaming mad,the disks were missing.. just got an empty case soooo mad!!!!! I know getting used is tricky but I expect to at least get the disks
+9385,1,Epic Fail,This movie sucked... Already wasn't a Batman fan and this just gave me a better reason why I shouldn't be. This movie was 90% talking and 10% slow paced old man fighting. Horrible Movie!!! Don't waste your money!!!
+9386,1,Huge disappointment,"I'm a huge fun of P.E. I've been listing to them for years but I'm not really digging this live album, the live band it's actually killing all the classics I miss the old P.E. live shows, I'm not digging the P.E. Band. If you are a true fan get it like I did but if you're checking P.E. for the first time, stay away from this record."
+9387,1,Sound good/design bad + sometimes shocks?,"These headphones are great for noise cancelling. I just wanted to warn people about the design. The battery pack is right in the middle of the cable so sitting at my desk I have to take the headphones off if I move my chair back at all. Sometimes I forget to do this and the pack falls off my desk, which has resulted in the clip for the batteries to break. Also, sometimes I'll get small electric shocks through the headphones. This hasn't happened with any other headphones that I've used."
+9388,2,Best Wireless Mouse Available Today,"First off, wireless isn't perfect, so you have to know that going into purchasing a mouse. That being said, this is the best optical wireless mouse I have used (and I have used a few). For the person complaining about having problems using it with a Mac, that's what you get for using a Mac ;p"
+9389,2,Good Book,"This is a very interesting book to read over the summer, i truly enjoyed it. Both the storyline and the syntax make for good reading."
+9390,2,The Contender,"I thought The Contender deserved a 4 star rating because it was a really good book. It was a book that explained about what it was like for a person to grow up in Harlem. The Contender had a lot of detail and showed the feeling very well, it sometimes even made you feel like you were there in the book. I thought that the book was a very influencial and told that if you work hard enough you can do anything you want to. Alfred worked hard and became more that just a high school dropout, he became an excellent boxer. Even though the book was very good, I don't think it deserved a five star rating because it didn't emphasize very much on things other than boxing and life in Harlem. I think it should include more on what was happening currently in the United States and around the World. The world was opening more chances for colored people. Overall, The Contender was a great book."
+9391,1,Dissapointing,"I expected more, having heard about this CD months before its release, I bought it as soon as it became available and I'm not impressed. Don't buy unless you absolutely have to hear one of the groups. The first Trancemode Express is much better."
+9392,2,Great Sci Fi,"Threshold is an engrossing and underated Sci Fi series. Unfortunately, only lasted one season. But, I'd put it up there with the best of Sci Fi TV.For anyone who hasn't seen it. You can think of it as a cross between the X Files and a CSI show.Intense, creepy and funny. Recommended for Sci Fi, horror or detective fans."
+9393,1,Caution,"I found myself looking up ""wrong"" answers and finding disagreements between this study guide and standard reference texts. I stopped using it early in Chapter 1 (I.M.)."
+9394,1,"Gum, yes, price no!",At the time of this writing the 3-pack is almost $13 dollars. I would be a moron to buy at this price when I can buy it for $2.88 per unit at my local grocery store.
+9395,1,Toy looked raggedy,This monkey looked like it had been on the shelf for a long time. It almost looked used. It was supposed to be a gift. Wasn't real happy with it.
+9396,1,Very bad....,"I don't understand why the producers of this movie chose Uruguay to make it look like a terrorist country. I am from Uruguay and the information shown in the movie is totally wrong.And some people say: "" but it's not a documentary, this is all fiction""...I know it's not a documentary, but I would like to ask these people... would you like they use the Flag of your country to show your people as terrorists..?I think this is about RESPECT for other countries . The producers of this movie are insulting my country and it seems like an anti-tourism campaign instead of a movie."
+9397,2,Good Product,"Without sending the water to a lab, I don't know how anybody could tell if the water is actually being purified. However the machine is easy to use and after about a month of using it, I have had no problems. It does make a little noise when running, but it only takes a couple of minutes per batch. It takes some counter space, a little more than the average coffee maker I would say. In my opinion the water does taste better."
+9398,2,A Modern Masterpiece,"This is a GREAT recording...from beginning to end. Tom Harrell is a total musician and a complete artist. One can hear the history of modern jazz in his compositions and in his solos. This music is a perfect marriage of mind and heart. Each song has its own identity and grows more and more fascinating with each listening - each one is a beautiful jewel that reflects a different facet, a different light and color, each time you hear it. If you love Tom Harrell or have only heard him in passing, or, for that matter, have never listened to him before, don't delay adding this cd to your collection. ""Light On"" is a modern masterpiece."
+9399,2,wow...super book on a well done topic,I have been playing hold em since before it was cool...I learned a lot about the game which had never dawned on me. It is great because it has copious amounts of material for all level players. Very impressed. If you are a player it is a must own.
+9400,1,Not worth reading!,Still trying to validate the paper it's printed on. The only thing I liked about the book was the design of the pages. Found the essays not especially well written and am looking forward to discussing it with our book review group to see if they can actually shed some light on the issues. Guess I wasn't lonely enough to want to crawl up with this book....it made me fall asleep.
+9401,1,Barbie Bus - Falls apart - don't buy,"This bus is horrible. The bed/couch will not stay together and falls apart everytime you touch it. The bathroom door falls off. The shower head does not fit. Do not buy this junky bus as it will be a source of total frustration.Despite the lack of quality, my daughter is playing with this toy. Probably, because it is me that has to fix the dumb thing when it falls apart.When I was a kid, barbie toys were well made and worked. The design and quality of today's toys are so disappointing."
+9402,1,Short Life,"I have owned four of these. One for the motorcycle, one for the truck, and one each for the cars.The Good:These gauges are accurate, repeatable, and very small.The Bad:They are disposable. I get maybe a year out of them, which is perhaps 2 uses. I tried to replace the battery in one. It would be somewhat challenging for someone who did not have the necessary micro screw drivers and the patience to remove various items. Inside you will find a shoddy piece of electrical tape holding the battery in place - nice touch. After I installed a new battery, reassembled the gauge, and turned it on, I discovered that it reset itself to units that are unfamiliar to me, perhaps pascals. I never did figure out how to change the units. The price of the product is not worth the time I put into it anyway.I don't recommend this digital pressure gauge."
+9403,1,It's shock'n how bad this album is!,"Folks, I urge you not to waste your money on this one. The songs sound just like the ones from the last album & Mr. Keeth's voice is so flat, it's hilarious. There's not a lick of creativity to be found on this disc. I know Toebee is a ""patriot"" and all that, but that's not what I have a problem with. What I can't stand are these cookie-cutter country albums that rip the country fans off. They all sound the same yet people continue to shell out their hard earned cash for them. I really miss the days when talent was a prerequisite for becoming a country star. YEEHAH!!!"
+9404,1,Great pan but takes too long,This is a great aebleskiver pan but it's just not practical. It takes way to long to make enough to feed a family.
+9405,2,I have a pair of these monitors and they're crisp.,"Owned a pair of the fe2111sb monitors since Oct 2002 and am quite pleased with thier performance, consistency and clarity. I use them side by side and haven't a complaint."
+9406,2,the real las vegas,I lived in Las Vegas for more than 30 years and this brought back the Vegas that I knew. A great DVD.
+9407,1,cannot get software to run,"I had written a previous review about being unable to install the software with any version of directx higher than version 7. As it turns out, their customer service rep told me how to get past the directx error that would prevent installation. After that however, the program would not run. Have been communicating with the customer rep for several days. According to the info on the jewelcase, ATI Rage Pro chipsets, (what I'm running), are supported. Still the program will not run. Customer service has tried to get it to run, and they did reply promptly, but at this time I can only give this program 1 star, as IMO, a well written program should not fail to run when it's requirements are met. This program did run at one time on my computer, the only two things that have changed on my machine is the Directx version, and the video,(turned off the integrated graphics and installed a video card). It is a good program, to bad it will no longer run."
+9408,1,Pure propaganda,"The core of the story cannot be validated - this is just another attempt for someone to exploit the election and partisanship in this country to make a few bucks, a real disappointment."
+9409,1,Raising Killers for Christ,You know . .I am so happy to see that some people have actually studied their history lessons ... it is obvious the writers and purveyors have. Everything in this book and it's collection are word-for-word culled from Nazi and Soviet propaganda.Raising a culture of killers must make you all so very proud.
+9410,2,Great Gloves!!!,"These are some pretty good gloves. They breathe well and there is just the right amount of padding on the palms for when you are working out with heavier weight. They are not to bad to get off but I still wish they had something on the fingers to help pull them off. All in all a great glove, very comfortable and a good price!!!"
+9411,2,"Exquisite, powerful, and moving in every way","The adjectives to describe musicianship of this rank have yet to be invented. From beginning to end, this is one of the best classical music discs you can buy. Pollini's Petrushka is thrilling beyond compare, and the Prokofiev sonato is a powerhouse performance, sure to quiet the chatter of any party with its stunning emotional weight and flawless timing. Every classical music review source has duly acknowledged this masterpiece. Your money will be well spent. Your soul will be moved. No home is complete without it."
+9412,2,Romance,I loved the book. Very good historical romance novel. Kept me interested until the end. I would recommend this book. Look foward to the next one.
+9413,1,Worst Program book I've read,"I read this book immediately after reading Sams Publishing ""Teach Yourself Office '97 in 24 Hours"", which should be your first Office '97 read. The two dozen or so typos (you would think MS Press would be particular about this sort of thing) were pathetic enough without being coupled with a smattering of incorrect illustrations. This work is basically 'help files in print'. I haven't opened it since I finished it, which was a very happy day."
+9414,1,Engrossing but Empty,"I tend to like psychological books such as this, the exploration of human nature, whatever. I don't need a lot of action, in fact I'd prefer otherwise- I'd much rather have some in depth character development. On that account, this book is massively successful. There are few book that delve so thoroughly into the mindset of one character. The problem is, I never feel like there's a significant development or transformation of Josef's character. Each time he seems on the verge of enlightenment or personal realization, the narration turns to a new mundane description or detail. I kept waiting for something to happen, but it never did. No major plot occurence. No major character development. I hardly empathised with Josef because Kafka never gives you a real reason to. In the end, you're not really sure what the Trial was, but you don't care either."
+9415,1,"Slowish, White LEDs bright and distracting","OK, to be fair, I've only had it a day. The backup software is so-so, the drive is kinda slow and the LEDs that show functioning of the drive are totally distracting in anything other than a brightly lighted room.Everything about it seems a bit clunky, so I am only going to use it for weekly backups and still put all my images and data on Gold CDRs until I can afford a proper RAID.At least it is quiet...Bought it very cheap as a tool to migrate from XP to Vista, so if it dies in a short period, it will have served its purpose..."
+9416,2,Great! Excellent! Magnificent!,"If you like any of the artists that put this CD together, you'll love this CD. This isn't any disney music- the artists in this CD improved upon these disney songs and made it the way they wanted it. I'm a HUGE fan of A*Teens, S Club 7, Hilary Duff, and Jump5. I LOVE this CD. You may think it's expensive, but every cent is worth it."

+9418,2,bought this when power went out,"back to the future-Most of our phones, like everybody else, depend on line power for operation. This is a cheap solution. Have one or two around the house, in the garage or wherever, to use when the power keeps the cordless phones off. Works great. I put one in my shop, and one in the utility room.One of our neighbors (we live in the mountains) had to climb the hill behind their house to get up where the cell phone worked during a recent power outage. Didn't own a wired phone."
+9419,1,Never buy a game without playing the demo first!!,"I had my doubts about buying a game whose MSRP dropped from $50 to $20 vitually overnight. Unfortunately, I bought it anyway assuming since the earlier games were so much fun this one must be too. I've played bad games before but this time I really feel like I was had.Zero stars."
+9420,2,"Down home, greasy and earthy Southern Soul at its best.","This is the music that gets played at bars, cocktail lounges and roadhouse joints throughout the South and Midwest. Artists like Johnnie Taylor, Denise LaSalle, Latimore, Clarence Carter, Shirley Brown, Little Milton, Betty Wright and Marvin Sease (all of whom are{among others} featured here) all became giants of Southern Soul and the songs featured on this collection remain staples of the genre to this day. Enjoy!"
+9421,1,Terrible terrible,After a couple months my knife set found a new home....in the trash. I replaced them with another brand. These were dull and rusted after a couple washes in the dishwasher. They even rusted when washing them by hand. Don't waste your money. I wouldn't buy them if they were for $1.
+9422,2,"Best series I have ever read, sans doubt.","It was a very interesting book, with a full rich world. I have read all the books in the series numerous times and cannot decide which is my favourite. The book is set in a civilisation that compares with about 1000 AD. Except that women have important roles in society. I recommend the entire series to everyone."
+9423,2,A childrens book that is a poetic feast for all ages.,"Pass It On is a beautiful picture book of some of BlackAmerica's best poems for children. Here the reader will find examplesof the wonderful works of Langston Hughes, Nikki Giovanni, Countee Cullen, and about thirteen others. From the Harlem Rennaisance to the present day lovely thought-provoking poems are presented to the American child. The illustrations are muted but descriptive renderings that are melded together to present a picture of black life at its best."
+9424,2,Wonderful!!!!!!,"I just recently bought this toy for my 3 month old daughter. I didn't know if she would be too young for it or not so I bought it anyways. She's been trying to sit up on her own and stand too and loves music so I thought it would be a good thing to help her out. So far, even without the music she LOVES it! She can just barely reach the keys at the bottom...but she can reach them which makes her all the more happy. She plays in it forever! I bought this toy because I thought it would be money well spent...$30 a toy=$90 and you get 3 toys in 1 on this one so I think this is money well spent so far!"

+9428,1,false advertising,this company inflates the prices artificially and the same boots are available elsewhere for a much cheaper prize
+9429,1,Do not buy,"Red alert! I bought this after reading glorious reviews only to be devastated. Brief seconds of beautiful awe inspiring scenery hyper-annoyingly interrupted by long periods of watching a very boring orchestra and some guy playing the piano with this weird goofy smile on his face. I wanted some background scenery with nice music. That's not what I got. The music is great. But if I wanted music, I'd buy a CD. YOU'VE BEEN WARNED!!! I returned the DVD."
+9430,1,No instruction,"I was hopeful for this, like others in the series. Just starts with no instruction and that is not helpful for someone just starting out. perhaps if you are already familiar with modern dances it would be a better fit."
+9431,1,Laboriously drawn-out for a book so loosely structured.,"Naipaul overdid it with this 500+ page book that wanders through snippets of countless stories, but never dwells long enough in any of them. The book is valuable for the slices of East Indian life revealed, but its charm wore off halfway through. I would recommend looking elsewhere for Indian material. A novel would have continuity of plot and character, whereas this had only the continuity of pulling the rug out from underneath the reader again and again"
+9432,1,Clearly not made for me,"Well I guess I am not the target audience being a 40 something Mother and not a youngish geeky man. I think you would like this movie if you like the comics but otherwise, it just seemed so pointless.I was also very annoyed by The Hulk. To start he could not control his anger (just like in the tv series of the same name) and was a danger to others but then suddenly, he could control it and use it as he wanted to while working with others! I either missed something or this is a bad continuity error in the story.Not a fan."
+9433,1,A Waste of Money,"I purchased this product for piece of mind. The only heartbeat I heard was mine. At 7 1/2 months, I still can't hear the baby's heartbeat. I should have purchased the Doppler instead...the same one my ob/gyn uses. It costs more but at least, I get piece of mind. I wouldn't recommend the BEBE prenatal heart monitor to ANYONE!!"

+9435,2,Classic Looney Tunes Style,"Back in action does a great job of keeping the true Looney Tunes style in a new movie, The characters are drawn in the original style, not the 60's animated style. While some people may not notice little things like the stray strands of fur on Bugs and Daffy it makes a big difference to me because the characters just don't seem the same. There are so many little things in this movie that after watching multiple times you will still find new things that you didn't see before. Brendan Frasier and Jenna Elfman do a good job working with the Tunes the movie feels natural unlike a lot of live action movies. If you're looking for recent Looney Tunes with classic style this is an excellent choice."
+9436,1,There is a line between kitch and total cheese. This film crossed it.,It opens with a semi pornographic threesome which is pointless to the movie. I know these films always have gratuitous boobs and ass but this went too far for the sake of a weak plot at best. The acting is HORRIBLE no mater how many times they attempt to cover it up with senseless nudity. The characters were trite and unbelievable. The plot was poorly developed. The quality was horrible and this is coming from a girl who loves the grainy integrity of actual film.
+9437,2,It all begins,"The year is 1982, Australian band INXS have had moderate success with three previous studio albums. Shabooh Shoobah is released containing some of the band's boldest tracks. A broad range from classics like Don't Change, The One Thing, To Look At You and Black and White down to more soulful tunes like Old World New World and Spy Of Love. With this album the band has broken its shackles and dared to do what they wanted. The album takes the band in a new direction, away from garage rock towards pub rock. Entertaining video clips for The One Thing and To Look At you help but the band's energy push this album along. Shabooh also begins the strong writing relationship between Hutchence and Andrew Farris that will be the focal point for the remainder of their career. A great album that I still play often even after 18 years."
+9438,2,I love my polaroid dvd player!,"I am surprised to see so many disappointed purchasers. I would recommend that you purchase from a good vendor. I have used our dvd player almost everyday for a year and I have no complaints. I wish the sound was a little bit louder, but headphones solve that problem. Sorry for all the other disappointed people."
+9439,1,Hard to use if you have a large baby,"I liked the idea of using an infant carrier to have my hands free while working around the house. Unfortunately, this just didn't work out for me and my daughter. She was almost twenty inches and nine pounds at birth, so by the time she was a couple of weeks old and I was ready to try out the carrier, it was incredibly awkward getting her into the thing. I'm not particularly tall and with my daughter being a big baby, I had to have my husband help me. By the time we got her in place, she was so irritated by the process, she wanted no part of it.She also didn't like facing in toward me and not being able to see. By the time, she was old enough to face outward, she was too big for me to comfortably use the carrier. This is the only carrier I tried, so I don't know if this is a problem with all carriers, but in this case, I found it to be more trouble than it was worth."
+9440,2,great soccer,"The Damned United is an excellent film based on a true story. Michael Sheen(?sp) is, as usual, excellent, and the story is well written. Obviously, it helps if you like soccer, but, even if you don't, it holds up well. Definitely a top 10 sports movie."
+9441,2,A nostalgic trip to the past!,"This is a vintage album by Latin pop diva Yolandita Monge. We have to note that her early style differs markedly from the style that would characterize her later songs, as is evidenced by ESTILO Y PERSONALIDAD. An amazing performance, nevertheless! My favorites in this album include VIDA and PORQUE DISTE VUELTA A LA CARA. Although at times Yolandita can be quite charismatic in her songs, I feel that sometimes, she puts just a bit much of an emphasis on emotion. However, this CD gives us a great glimpse into her early style. I would heartily recommend it! A great addition to any Yolandita Monge collection!! Kudos to the diva!!!"
+9442,2,"Oh Travis, you've really outdone yourself.","The Papercut Chronicles, GCH's first cd, was a great cd but i often found myself skipping around. However, i can't say this is true with As Cruel as School Children. When i first listened to this album i could tell they were adding different effects and such to change the style a little (as all great bands do). A.C.a.S.C. is one of those summer cd's that you would expect to hear while cruising with friends in your mom's convertible. Songwise, ""Clothes off!"" is my favorite song followed by ""New Friend Request"" and ""Viva la White Girl"". However, i still havent found a song on the album that i consistently skip over.If you like alternative, rap, OR pop, then definately check out this cd."

+9445,2,The Queen of the Big Time,"I really enjoyed this book! The characters and their life stories were fascinating and very well written. For my taste the two of Trigiani's books that I've read end with a bit too much sentimentality, but of course some people may like that."
+9446,2,"Good, but...","I really liked this book and I love the main character of Tempe Brennan. The characters are well drawn and multi-dimensional and I loved all of the tidbits about forensics and anthropology. The locations were rich in detail and I felt like I was there. My only complaint about this book was that I had every single plot point figured out a good 30-50 pages before Tempe did. There wasn't a single thing in this book that surprised me. But it was still an enjoyable read and even if I knew that going in, I would still read it."
+9447,1,What a waste of perfectly good trees.,"I've read a lot of science fiction books over the years, and I can honestly say that this is one of the worst I've ever forced myself to finish. How anyone could read this book and give it a rating above a 2 or a 3 is beyond me. The aliens are upright walking cats and dogs from only 4 light years away who seem to share a lot of the catch phrases and sayings of the current American culture. It was hard to find a coherent sentence on any of the numerous pages. Somewhere an English teacher weeps. Also, the story (if you can call it that) violates Einstein's Theory of Relativity as it applies to major time perception differences between conscious entities aboard objects moving at relativistic speeds and those who aren't moving as fast (fewer years would pass aboard a spaceship moving at 99% of the speed of light than would pass on the crew's home planet). Note to self: ""Choose your reading materials more carefully""."
+9448,2,Great for everyday,I have nice silver grapefruit spoons but I don't want to polish them after every use. These spoons cut through the grapefruit nicely and I don't have as much wasted grapefruit in comparison to using a citrus knife. The blade isn't too sharp so you can use it to eat the grapefruit. This would make a great gift for a grapefruit lover.
+9449,2,Friendship and Unrequited Love,"This novel is about Suse, a junior high school girl who is coming of age during World War II. The book is a fairly sensitive exploration of her friendship with Peggy and Peggy's sister, Helen Maria, 'the genius'. Helen Maria's character and that of her lover, Egon, are well portrayed, along with Suse's unrequited love for Egon.There is a nice contrast between the weird and the normal folks of life. In a low keyed way, this book showed the prejudice and intolerance that lurks in all of us, along with our capacities for insight and improvement of character. A nice phrase in this book is Helen Maria's description of a 'loose' young woman as 'la grande horizontale'.The flavor of this book is reminiscent of a sidewalk cafe bistro."
+9450,1,Did not care for this book.,Letter format did not appeal to me to. Just did not care for this type of reading I prefer a different format.
+9451,1,Primitive concepts outdated by todays understanding,"I have no doubt that C.S. Lewis was a fine man and he certainly set out to achieve a noble goal here. Making the spiritual more understandable through the application of logic has an undeniable appeal. Unfortunately, his assumptions about some of the basic concepts of human nature look positively naive by modern standards. He comes off sounding like, as one of my psych professors was fond of saying, a ""park-bench philosopher"". Behavioral science just had not developed to the point it has today, so he had no way of knowing that his basic assumptions about some things he viewed as givens were, in fact, not given at all. In the end, trying to make the subject of religion something that one can put to the test of ""logic"" is an exercise in futility. That's why it's called faith."
+9452,2,First in the Forster series is great!,Lots of good courtroom drama and she keeps you guessing. The back story is very interesting with lots of twists and turns.
+9453,1,Whoever remastered this should be enslaved,"Okay, we know that the original movie soundtrack wasn't the greatest to begin with (Jack Nicholson singing leaves a very bad taste in your brain) but it had a few memorable tracks: Prologue 1945, Christmas, See Me-Feel Me/Listening to You, and the Acid Queen. So, one would think that with a remastered soundtrack the engineer(s) would make those, and the other tracks, shine.Wrong.The remastered album is dreadful, _especially_ Prologue 1945: it's brash, noisy musical mayhem--it sounds like The Three Stooges tripping and falling their way through an orchestra pit/recording studio...and that's just the beginning. I'm so disappointed with the disc I just may stick in the microwave just to feel good about its self-destruction as it generates a miniature lightning storm and melts into a puddle of muddled musical goo.Save yourself some money and disappointment: buy the DVD and rip it to .mp3 files, instead."
+9454,2,"Comment on ""the Constant Gardener""","This is a deeply-moving story. The diplomat's wife went to investigate and collect evidence that profitable pharmaceuticals tested unsound drugs on HIV positive mothers or patients in Africa. As a result, she got herself murdered and her husband went to investigate his wife's cause of death and got the truth finally. The plot is very intriguing. We also understand Africa's culture further. It is very sad to see people there living a life like one or two centuries ago. In the end of the movie, the African musical song sounds full of sorrow. Overall, it is a worthy- watching movie which inspires our reflection toward many aspects. No wonder many people strongly recommend it."
+9455,1,"Brittle, bubbly, terrible.","I bought this topcoat at the drugstore when I left my other bottle of top coat (Seche Vite) at work. I love Sally Hansen products, and I've used the Dries Instantly top coat with no complaints at all. This one, however, was different. Quick-drying to a hard, shiny finish that began to crackle within 24 hours. Eventually it started to chip and crack right off, taking the polish with it. It also trapped little bubbles in it, no matter how hard I tried to apply it smoothly (I'm quite proud of home mani skills ... this wasn't all user error). The bubbles went all the way down to the nail as the top coat dried, and left my dark polish with tiny flesh-colored bubbles showing through! It's one of the very few items I've ever purchased that I was so disgusted with I marched right back to the store for a refund."
+9456,1,Why is the Kindle edition more expensive than soft or hard cover?,"The book might be fabulous but I will never know as I want to purchase the digital edition. However, the digital edition is more expensive than the soft cover version or the hard cover version. That seems ludicrous and unjustified and I will not be purchasing this book. Also, 13$ for a book which is a few years old? Why?"
+9457,1,A Waste of Time,"The appeal of the original was that it was an animated version of the magazine. The appeal of the origial magazine was the mixture of styles, and the effortless ""bad boy"" attitude it exuded as a whole. As to the meandering plot? That was part of the appeal. If you didn't like one approach, there were at least three or more others that would turn you on! Heavy Metal 2000 misses the point entirely. It was flat, boring and felt like ""Walt Disney Gets a Woody"". I mean, it even had the same visual style of ""Beauty and the Beast"". The effortless adolescent raunch of #1 was replaced with the forced, ""Aren't we bad? tee-hee!""And get a load of the hero, a whiny genXer that the original Den would have snapped in two. He wasn't cool, he was a pain! The heroine just kept missing the mark. The whole thing was kid stuff!Don't waste your money, rent the second one and buy the first one and prepare to leave your brain at home!"
+9458,1,NOT FOR KIDS,"Would you give your kids the ""Family Guy Bible?"" Then don't give them this one. ""Reverend"" Brendan Powell Smith's gratuitous depiction of violence and sex is not appropriate for kids and in some cases not appropriate for adults. His interpretation of biblical passages is sarcastic and takes potshots at Christianity. He is an atheist, not a reverend and does not give a Christian perspective. If you are still wondering about buying this for your kids, take a look at the passages and interpretations of scripture available on his site: [...] Nothing by this author should have a ""For Kids"" stamp on it."
+9459,1,Was disappointed in the PupSTEP,"I purchased this product for my Italian Greyhound with the expectation it would be great to take the stress off her long legs. I have found that the steps are so close together that she has to hunch her body together to use them. They are not as sturdy as I expected them to be. She only weights 12 lbs but they seem almost fragile. I did not think they look very good in my home as the entire thing is plastic. I will give this purchase to my son for his older, smaller dog and hope they can use it."
+9460,1,an ugly transfer!,"I wonder why this disc is so horrible: the video is unwatchable, the sound is poor... And every time I saw some excerpts of this historical event, at some TV shows, the quality was very good. Do not purchase this item."
+9461,1,THEY COULD BE ALOT BETTER!,"Read the reviews. seemed OK. got a pair. decent sound. I'm not a big sound-a-phile so I was pleased with the sound reproduction - forsitting on the bus or darting around town - they are/were just fine.the biggest disappointment is the cheap rubber sleeves that cover theearbuds (that are placed in your ear). THEY FALL OFF & YOU LOSE THEM!!the package does come with a replacement pair,BUT THOSE FALL OFF AS WELL!!and once you deplete the originals AND the replacements(which doesn't take long) YOU'RE SCREWED!!THIS IS A HUGE DESIGN FLAW! save your $20.00 & use it to buya better designed product.even though the price was right, i would not recommend these.unless you like sticking a hard piece of plastic into your ear canal!"
+9462,2,A truly terrific book,Gregson' book is full of terrifically creative and easy games for everyone -- families and friends as well as teachers. Here are games that will be new to your children and that will get their creative juices flowing. The games are engrossing and satisfying. I highly recommend this outstanding book.

+9464,2,Love it! Love It! Love It!,"Love it! Love It! Love It! ""The Pre-Foreclosure Property Investor's Kit"" by Thomas Lucier is very informative and a must read for anyone interested in this type of real estate investing. Mr. Lucier tells in detail how to negotiate with homeowners in trouble, how to be the solution to their problem, and how NOT to have the door slammed in your face. He also demystifies the process of dealing with the homeowner's lender by explaining in detail each step in the process of taking the property off their hands. This book, along with Dean Graziosi's [[ ASIN:1593154461 Be A Real Estate Millionaire: Secret Strategies for Lifetime Wealth Today]] have helped me so much in understanding how to be successful with foreclosures."

+9467,1,"Great Art and Execution, But Sad Drama.","It is a great implementation of art and graphics, and the story moves along smoothly. Unfortunately, this success is bounded by a sad drama that is unnecessary to the story, and darkens the mood. It would have been a great movie without the darkness."
+9468,2,Can't live without it!,"I've owned the same Patio Caddie for over 10 years now! It grills beautifully over clay briquettes, giving that great smoke flavor and does it all on a fraction of the propane. The key to getting lots of heat from a tiny burner is cooking COVERED. I even bought a kit to retrofit the burner plate and made the old grill like new again for $20!It's a small grill, but will cook six large steaks all at once."
+9469,1,"Works ok, but not great...","I purchased this phone about 3 months ago and have been using it to replace my land line. It works ok for basic phone calls, however, I have found some problems. The first is that DTMF (Touch Tone dialing for phone trees) only works sporadicly. There is also something funny about the mute button that causes the person you called to hear a constant clicking noise that you cannot hear on the voip841. I have also had a problem with the headset jack not working unless I wiggle the plug.Nice looking phone and the sound quality is pretty good, but it has some limitations."
+9470,1,Seconded: Nice clock but loud,"This is a good-looking, easily readable wall clock. At night, when all is still, this clock can definitely be heard ticking (actually, more of a ""tock""). The clock is in our bathroom, but, in the contemporary style, our bathroom is off the Master Bedroom without a door. The tocking can be heard 40' away in bed. Previous atomic clocks which I have owned of other manufacturers have not ticked at all.I haven't had this clock long enough to know whether or not it will automatically change for Daylight Savings but the instructions say that it will.I've downgraded it because the ticking is really annoying. It did change from daylight savings to standard time as advertised.I would not buy it if I could do it over again."
+9471,1,Save the Packaging--You Will Need It...,"It looks like I am going to have to return this one too...making it the third time in about 6 or 8 months. The problem happened all three times on reloading. I have no idea what happened or why, I've reloaded successfully several times, but with each stapler, this little black metal piece attached to the spring gets freed---it is apparently not fixable. While I too love them, here we go again...it's getting old now. I'm not sure if they are made to be disposable, but it certainly is not priced as a disposable. I hope they redesign it into something more durable as that's about the only way I would try again. Find something more durable...odds are you will be returning this if you buy it."
+9472,2,An act of forgiveness,"The author relives her experiences during the genocide of Rwanda in 1994. Despite the terrible evil visited upon herself and those she loved, she persists in her Christian faith and feels growth in her spirituality, so much so that she is able to forgive and go on after the atrocities have ended. This is an inspiring book, good reading, and would be excellent if used in a book club or Bible study group."
+9473,1,"More ""motivation"" than ""organization system""","My title says it all. There isn't much of a blue print laid out here for you to follow on the path to organizing your life. For the most part, this book seems to beat around the bush by presenting you with a series of actual accounts of clutterers and discussion on why you hoard things and how much better your life would be if you didn't. The author frequently sites his own experience as a reformed pack rat. After reading this book, I felt more pumped up to take action than instructed on how to go about better organizing the different facets of my life. True, motivation is half the battle, but I would have preferred more guidance with the other half."
+9474,2,Teva Flip Flop,"I really wanted these to be just right but they were not as I have a very wide foot. Fortunately, they fit a friend very well so I gave them to her. I liked the look and as with most Tevas, they looked well made."
+9475,1,Ambrose did a better job in Band of Brothers,"I am going to buck the system and not give any of the ""Children of the Promise"" books more than 2 stars.I had just finished reading, and watching, Stephen A. Ambrose's ""Band of Brothers"" when I picked up the Children of the Promise series and started reading it. I didn't care for it, but I kept reading it. I found the novels had a lot in common with Band of Brothers.Latter Day Saints (and I am one of them) seem to have a real issue with originality. Unfortunately we seem to have a hard time finding our nitch and what we should be producing artistically. ""Children of the Promise"" doesn't flip the bill.Much of the conflict in the stories seems forced, most of the characters in the story aren't characters most of us would care about, and the family patriarch needs a perscription of Zoloft.Just because Dean Hughes is LDS, it doesn't mean the rest of us LDS folks need to automatically assign him 5 stars for a work that is not to original."
+9476,2,Great writing instrument!,Hard to find in retail outlets. Older model but absolutely the best bang for your buck. Comfortable and precise. Highly recommended!
+9477,2,Fanciful,"The mice are preparing for a Halloween ball, pulling out their best clothes and preparing to dance, when tiny alligators vandalize and wreck everything. The mice are almost ready to run away when one of their own convinces them to fight for their home. In the battle that follows, they have to decide if they will forgive their enemies, or make them suffer.We just loved this cute book. The pictures are fanciful, with mice using bottlecaps for shields, shoes for beds. The colors are rich and held my daughter's attention. It's a fun book with just enough ""creepy"" to give kids a thrill, but stops just short of turning into too much for them to handle. The moral is good; true power comes to those who are strong enough to forgive.This book will definitely join our collection!"

This game takes place at the Royal Palladium Theatre where actor Brady Armstrong is to premire his new movie, ""Vanishing Destiny"". You, as girl detective Nancy Drew, have gone to the premeire with your good high-school friend, Maya Nguyen, who is there to interview Brady Armstrong about the new movie. However, after only a short time there, Maya goes missing! She has been kidnapped!You have only 3 days to save Maya! Can you do it? I did! I highly recommend you buy this game so you can save Maya too!"
+9480,1,SKLFHDI,"Pretty much the same as always; i.e., really bloody stupid. Now he's trying to sound ANGRY!! Uh oh! That's pretty scary! Yeah, very aggressive. It's hard to think of anything more pathetic, although in a way it's encouraging to see that even people like him can succeed."
+9481,1,Just plain bad,"When Waiting to Exhale was published, it was a book we needed. Tired of depictions of slavery, Jim Crow, and ghetto life, we wanted stories dealing with our newly found affluence. McMillan gave us a buddy novel that showed us in a different light.Attempting to read this book now is painful. The story is still interesting but the execution is amateurish."
+9482,1,ouch!,"These are so comfortable on the bottom of my foot but so uncomfortable on the top. I wore them for a few days on and off then wore them all day walking around NYC. My feet are still punishing me for it over a week later. The plastic thing between my toes hurts, but not as badly as the little button which connects the plastic to the upper part of the shoe. It left bruises between my toes! I'm hoping this is the breaking in period, but every time I put them on it hurts. I have plantar fasciitis, so the arch support is a god-send, but I may not be able to make use of it."
+9483,2,great book,"I really enjoyed this book and have recommended it to several co-workers. It gets a little slow in the middle and the author and I disagree on a few points, but I have read it twice and will read again."
+9484,1,"Great story, shame about the heroine!","OK, I'll be the lone voice of dissent. This book (all O'Connell's books) shows a skilled writer with great descriptive ability and storytelling skills. Then WHY are we treated to a pseudo-mystical cardboard main character? Mallory is a barely functional psychotic, yet we're expected to fall for her gorgeous looks, computer skills (yeah, just try read the part about her controlling the power grid on a per-streetlight and per-room basis, from a homemade laptop, atop a powerpole, without laughing) and her ability to withstand physical pain. Sheesh!O'Connell could do so much better. I won't read another of her books!."
+9485,1,Great while it worked...,I purchased this alarm clock for my daughter's room. I wanted something that was light in color that displayed the time and played cd's - nothing fancy. I loved the look of this alarm clock and everything worked great for the first six months. Then the radio stopped working (not a big deal as I had primarily bought it for the cd player). A month later we noticed that it wasn't keeping time correctly (it runs fast). It's now been ten months and today the cd player stopped working.
+9486,2,As Advertised,"The product was as advertised, and instalation was easy as the instructions were easy to understand and complete. Thank you"
+9487,2,Previous reviews have been slightly off the mark,"I say, have the other reviewers been listening to the same artist? What's up with all these comparisons with Tori Amos, Bjork? Although Moscow-born Regina Spektor has been grouped together with the 'anti-folk movement', her music hearks back to those very roots she's supposed to have left. Her Russian-Jewish heritage and her classical training play a major role in her music. Regina's Slavic accent is so thick sometimes I'm wondering whether she exaggerates it on purpose! It would in any case suit the theatricality of her music. For that is another element: her music has more in common with cabaret and chansons than with the confessional ballads of her female contemporaries. In any case, I suggest that certain people return to their stereos and give Regina's music another listen before making and Joni Mitchell comparisons."
+9488,1,Didn't work,"It came, I opened it..NOTHING. It toy itself looked good, bigger than I thought and although the package it is attached to was damaged. The outer package was fine. The toy says 'Try Me' like in the stores. When that didn't work I went to follow the instructions to pull the tab of the battery pack, but NO TAB. So I'm returning it."
+9489,2,DIM MAK,"The book arrived in a timely manner, was in near new condition and I saved about 60% over new cost!"
+9490,1,Poorly organized and structured presentation of all the data and history of the Barnes.,The story did not flow well.I did not like the way it came across.The Barnes story is a fascinating one. I would like to have seen fewer interviews and more concise story telling.
+9491,1,A total disappointment,"The characters in this book were more like super characters (they could & would do anything). The Mother was suppose to be moral but in the end did something so out of character it was unbelievable. The main character's decisions were poor considering the author wanted you to believe she was young and smart. Also, the editing of the book was horrible. Missed spelled words and poor sentence structure. Save your money."
+9492,2,"BIG SMILE, DANCING MOOD, HOT STAR, JUST GREAT!","Studio 54 is a place almost everyone dreams of and the fever is so contagious, it makes you wanna dance and dance and dance. Everybody can relate to the simple guy that wants to escape normal life for a change and be outragious and party! The roles are played very well by talented actors and actrices like Ryan Philipe and Salma Hayek. Just sit back, relax, get into the movie and you'll find yourself knodding your head and moving your feet and you'll be in Studio 54, and what a great experience that is!"
+9493,1,Can't believe I waited a year for this crap,This game will not run on windows ME. You will need something equivelant or better than big blue. You might then be able to get atari graphics.One big stink.
+9494,1,Shows author's bias and borders on conspiracy theory,"This book is a bad read. Book does show that the author has vast knowledge of world history and geography but at the same time brings out his strong biases towards racial and religious make-up of the world. The book makes some very simplistic judgments about the historical nature of conflicts and adds huge amount of weights towards some abstract ""civilizational"" construct of human life. Humans are way more complicated and driven a lot by nationalistic and regional concerns than depicted in this book. I found reading this book quite a waste of time."
+9495,2,I prefered the DaVinci Code,This book was a little less interesting as the DaVinci Code. This is book is based on government conspriacy rather than the Catholic church. I found myself less engaged with the characters.
+9496,1,Bad Clip,"The case held the phone fine (if you didn't run it into anything), but the clip was cheap and broke after a few uses. The clip was flimsy and loose. Like a said, it broke."
+9497,2,Great photo storage pages for a good price.,"These photo pages hold photos securely in about as good a configuration as is possible with 4x6 pictures. They are completely transparent and quite strong. The photos slide in quite easily and seem to stay securely in place. If you need three ring binder, 4x6 photo pages, I think you will be pleased with these."
+9498,2,"If I feel down, the sun will always come out tomorrow.","This film is one of the greatest musicals ever made. The music, the choreography, the acting are the key ingredients to a great musical and Annie has it all. It was my favorite film as a child and still is one of my favorites. If I ever feel down, hearing the opening bars of the song ""Tomorrow"" will make me let out my sadness and then I feel better. Ann Reinking is absolutely incredible as Grace Farrell. She is a brilliant, inspirational dancer who has the most graceful movements. Aileen Quinn is so memorable as the lead. She is a great actress who has remained in my mind as my favorite child star. This movie is a must-own for the musical lover. I certainly enjoy it every time."
+9499,2,great,Great purchase no problems at all and works instantly. And was pretty cheap compared to stores and you can do it straight from your house and not have to wait
+9500,2,Excellent for the price!,This an excellent comforter for the price! The down pockets are evenly spaced and plumply filled but the down still moves around a bit between squares and it takes a lot of time to wiggle the down back into the center of the comforter. The feather pillows that came free with this in November took nearly 3 months to arrive. The cover is soft and the comforter is very comfortable.
+9501,2,AALIYAH.Always remebered,"This book is just awesome and you sure need to buy it if you're Aaliyah's fan. Well the first reason is that it has many colorful pics which could be used as posters plus it was nice to read the book - there're some borring parts, but in general it's very nice. It also made me really sad in some parts because Liyah isnt alive any more... So if you still have doubts, believe me, that it really worth buying. I was waiting for it more than a month and i'm not dissapointed. Plus the prise is much lower now so dont miss your chance to buy it!"
+9502,1,one womans story not a true portrayal of the amish,"book should be listed as fiction. it is ONE womans ALLEGED story, not a bible on the amsih as some seem to take it. Poorly written and biased, I would not recommend it."
+9503,1,Suburban fantasy,"This is the kind of writing that is viewed as exciting and profound only by women who live in the suburbs and view the world through that isolated lens. That said, I haven't read the book, but the excerpt was not good. It seems a typical pulpy romance novel so I suppose if you like that kind of stuff..."
+9504,2,HE SURE HAS THE FEELING,"Barry Manilow's Live DVD is absolutely inspiring! I have been to two of his concerts in the past month. I bought this DVD at his concert in Milwaukee, WI and was on such a ""high"" from his music, I had to watch the DVD as soon as I got home (2:30AM), and every day since. We have a big screen television 56"" and it is just like being in the audience. He told the story about how his Grandfather had inspired him to sing when he was 3 years old at one of those old record stores they used to have where you can record your voice, and all Barry said was no! He plays it on a scratchy 78 rpm record in the background as he starts singing This One's For You. I have NEVER seen such raw feeling put into every single song that he sings. My Grandchildren even enjoy watching the DVD, espically when he sings Daybreak! I highly recommend buying this, you will not be disappointed!"
+9505,1,Bad on every level.,"This film was such a waste of time, not only for me, but I'm sure for all those involved in the making of it. Bad script, bad acting, bad premise, bad bad bad. I'm having a hard time believing I sat thru the whole thing but there is a part of me that has to see how things end, so there you have it.Maybe I'm just not good with fantasy films or perhaps moist maidens, I dunno... but this was just SUCH a laughable, idiotic movie! I can't say enough bad about it. I hope the actors were paid well for suffering through it. I'm usually a big Shamalan fan, but this doesn't even compare to the other films whatsoever."
+9506,2,Um.. It's an ice cream maker...,"My wife has fallen in love with this ice cream maker. Since it's arrival, I have been deluged in various flavors and quantities, and with milk being priced as it is, I AM GOING BROKE!!!With regards to the product, it's sturdy construction has held up well to my wife's heavy usage and it's simple enough that even my 8 yr old daughter is making ice cream.This definitely harkens back to sitting on my grandmothers back porch with the hand crank churner (thank goodness this one plugs in!!)."
+9507,1,"Hot, hot, hot!","I purchased this for a 2.5 minibow aquarium and found that if you leave the light on ASWELL as the heater it can cause a BIG temperature jump. I mention this because my betta really got stressed from all that heat the first day - I think he got a little sick because of his clamped fins and lethargy the next day. So be careful that the heater doesn't overheat your aquarium/bowl. My idea is to leave it on at night and then turn it off during the day so that the light can maintain the aquarium at a few degrees lower, it's the best option without a 15 watt automatic shut off heater in a 5 gallon aquarium, which is probably what I will do when I can afford it next month! Good luck:0)"
+9508,2,Great fun for any age,"My 3 year old daughter absolutely loves this book. It is one of her favorites. What's great about it is all the neat things you can do. You can smell icky things, see icky things, travel through a scary house, etc. [Someone] said they had problems with it, but we have not. It is a sturdy book. There are a lot of different kinds of things to find in it. I am looking for others like it. Definitely a great buy!"
+9509,2,ABSOLUTELY GREAT!!!,This is one of the best albums Dieter has ever made!!! I like it very much! This album is full of romantic passion music! and ballads are absolutely great!!!
+9510,2,"Engrossing, page turner","I liked this book. Chuck has his own style and he keeps it alive and kicking in this book. Once you get started in this book it moves along very well, the stories keep you glued,some shocking others thought provoking either way it's a good fun read. I didn't give it 5 stars because I didn't care for the Ending but if your a fan of Chuck like I am this is a must read."
+9511,1,A great story trapped in a terrible book,"I love the OED. I read CT Onions' ""Oxford English Dictionary of English Etymologies"" for fun.I couldn't stand this book.Why? The writing is awful. Winchester takes a short story and pads it to a ridiculous degree. Further, his writing is awkward and cliched; it's on the level of a 1950's pulp mystery.Not that there's anything wrong with that. But a book about the creation of one of the best-written dictionaries in the universe should be written with thought and care. Instead, The Professor and the Madman gives one the impression that the author had a page quota to fill.As other reviewers have stated, the real life story didn't have that many events. This story would have been better told in 10 pages rather than 240.Avoid this book unless you enjoy pulp mysteries as much as you enjoy the Oxford English Dictionary."
+9512,2,awesome!,ive had this cable for over a year. it is durable and works great with a number of devices that i own.
+9513,1,Fun but did not last long,I got this tube as a gift from my friend for christmas. It was durable and held two eigth graders on it. The second time i used it i crash into a lawn chair and it got a rip. We tried to repair the rip but it did not come with a repair kit. It was a fun toy but did not last long.
+9514,1,Wretched,"Insipid, overproduced pop dance music. Why can't Sheena sing in her real accent? But the cover's nice enough."
+9515,1,Do NOT buy for Home Theater! (no HD),"Cable quality appears to be very nice. Very thick shielding. However, with Win7 at least, you will not be able to get native resolution for your TV through this cable (if you have a 1080p HD TV). I bought this because I wanted to put the computer farther than 6 ft away (length of VGA cable I had). When I hooked this up, the resolution dropped from 1920x1080, to 1024x768, and windows would not allow 1080p resolution. Go back to the cheap 6 ft VGA, works no problem. Apparently, some VGA cables don't support a certain pin that helps the computer identify the monitor, so windows locks any monitor you hook up with this to ""generic PnP monitor"". I've tried 2 long VGA cables so far, same results with both. I wish there were a way to identify up front which VGA cables support 1080p (identify monitor type), and which don't."
+9516,2,This book will keep you wondering until the end,"I thought I could figure out the plot several times, but Victoria Holt spins away from the mundane. One never knows what's going to happen in the end."
+9517,2,son loves it,My son just loves this game. So far quality wise it has been OK. I am a little concerend that the bottom will come off and think it needs some reinforcing; my son keeps leaning on it.
+9518,2,Growing the Spirit,"Can't wait to jump into this one. Love what I read so far and I know I'll love the rest. Can't wait to do all the meditations and finish the book. I'm hoping by the end of this book, and combined with other teachings form other books, I'll be able to do a lot of miraculous, spiritual and supernatural things."
+9519,2,Moraes Moreira is the Brazilian to watch out for!,"The CD Acustico is a must have, at least for persons who love Brazilian music. Moraes Moreira is well-known in the Samba Carneval Scenes, but the Acustico CD is not your usual Samba number, this CD displays musical versatility. Lots of Eletrico- Guitar and Ijexa rhythm of afoxe groups. Moreira was formerly of Os Novos Baianos and his kind of music is frevo, choro and samba with some jazz-fusion-like arrangements. I own this CD now since 10 weeks and there hardly isn't a day I do not listen to it. 'Acustico' is acoustically phantastic!"
+9520,2,Inexpensive and easy to install,"This print server was simple to install. The low price and network speed were major factors in the purchase but the ease of installation was a major benefit. I also like the fact that it is so small. I didn't have to find a location for the box, it just plugs into the back of the printer. Getting it operational on the network was no problem at all. I would definitely buy it again."
+9521,1,Hard Sell From Financial Person Looking For Clients,"Nothing but an advertising brochure from a self-described ""financial advisor"" who is desperate for new clients. His advice is very weak and WILL ONLY MAKE HIM RICH!"
+9522,2,Arbitrage,Very good story line and acting by Richard Gere. Follow of the movie was easy to follow which made the movie enjoyable to watch.
+9523,2,Bemis Digital Control Console Evaporative Humidifier - 4D7-800,"This humidifier is a beast! It's about the size of a TV set. However, it's on casters, so you can easily roll it out of the way.When you get the fan really rolling, it moves some serious air. I'm not convinced it's evaporating as much volume of water as claimed, though, because the tanks sometimes last for days before needing a refill. Also, the ""empty"" indicator is very low-tech. It has already failed and we need to check the tanks periodically.But the bottom line is, our house was unbearable dry and now it's better. I can't argue with the price of the unit or the amount of electricity it uses. Overall, I prefer this wick/fan system over our old humidifier, which took lots of juice and shut off every time the heating element needed scraping to remove crusted-on minerals."
+9524,2,Very insightful and helpful,"This book has a lot of helpful information for looking for and applying to graduate schools for clinical or counseling psychology, Ph.Ds or Psy.Ds. It provides different perspectives on the degrees and careers so that readers have a better understanding of what they may be going into."
+9525,1,Superstar again? Flying without Wings okay.,"I truly enjoyed listening to Ruben during the AI2 season. My first complaint about this single cd is this, how many times do we have to listen to Superstar? I truly only purchased this cd because of Flying without Wings. The powers that be should have chosen another song for Ruben's single.Flying without Wings: Well I was really looking forward to owning this song after hearing it on the final show. I wish they had used that live version.I hope that whoever is producing Ruben's full album chooses songs and renditions of those songs wisely."
+9526,2,With This Kiss,This was a great read. The love story was perfect and the author kept me guessing who the arsonist was till the end.
+9527,2,Oh Yeah!!,"I have a personal story. In the early 90`s I was turned on to this type by a friend at work. I had been only listening to Hip Hop and he would tell me the samples that some of the songs had used. Well to make a long story short, I began to like the original songs more than the Rap songs. Unfortunately, he didn`t write down the titles and names of the songs so I could`nt find out who made them. Years later when my two little boys were born, they proceeded to destroy those cherished tapes my friend had made for me. Finding these songs has been a slow and agonizing process. But with the help of ""CDnow"" I have begun to get back some of those songs. Some of them are located on the ""Best of Bobbi Humphrey"". This album is simply fantastic. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a pure jazz flutist with soul."
+9528,1,Better than nothing,"Not as expected. Very small ""tools"" packaged in a 3x5 inch box. Poor quality. Slightly better than having nothing. Return policy not fully explained before purchase. Money will not be returned; receive a gift certificate."
+9529,1,ONLY FOR WINDOWS!!!!!,"i found out that the mp3 starter kit is only for WINDOWS! So if u r thinking about buying this junk for yur JUICE BOX first check if have a Windows 98 SE,NT,Windows XP or 2000. !!!!!!!!ALL MAC USERS DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT!!!!!!!!!"
+9530,2,"Beautiful music, edited video.","All three tracks on this disc are beautiful works. I thoroughly enjoyed them all. The other reviews have covered this in detail.However, the video included on the CD is the censored and edited version. If you desire to see the full, unedited version you'll have to buy the VHS. I'm unsure why they bothered to put an explicit content sticker on the album when they censor out any explicit content.Besides the very dissapointing inclusion of the edited video, this EP deserves the highest praise."
+9531,1,stopped working,"Similar to another reviewer, I bought this at the recommendation of a respected test cooking kitchen. It quit working after a year. Also found that the metal hook on top (that allows it to hang from an oven rack) scratched the bottom of all my metal baking pans."
+9532,1,Kutless is ok,"Honestly their first CD did nothing for me. There is a few ok songs on this but if you want Christian Rock look elsewhere. Granted I've seen these guys live they put on a great show, and there really cool in person. It's still not enough to convince me this album was worth the buy."
+9533,1,O'really..,"The contents' probably great, but what happened to the cover of the book? Did Young & Bernbach over-squeezed their ""creativities"" and left the cover of this book out cold? Wake up guys...bright yellow is a definite NO-NO for a book cover...leave the ""neons"" for Las Vegas...!!"
+9534,2,Gatorskin Nitrile glove,"I like these gloves because they are tough for working around tools, paint and other chemicals. They lasted a lot longer before wearing out or breaking at the thumbs and forefingers.The only drawback is the medium size is a tight fit, somewhat smaller than typical for a size medium. Next time I will order a large in that brand."
+9535,2,Pretty good set,"4 stars should say it all. Not a bad set at all, especially after a few disappointments like Digital/Black, and Experience 2002. Very nice selection of tracks, especially on CD #1. Mixing as always very precise. Second CD deserves a 3 star rating, as it gets a bit boring and heavy at the end. Overall a very decent compilation. Don't expect to be blown away by it, but nevertheless very enjoyable experience overall."
+9536,2,Great game idea!,"Bought this for my parents for Christmas. Since they have everything I thought this would be different. Unfortunately, I think they forgot I bought it for them!!!"
+9537,2,Gift for Grandson,This gift was a complete success. He played it nearly constantly the first week after Christmas. He had requested this game for his birthday in October so I knew it would be a hit.
+9538,2,"If this is what I think it is, I have been looking all over","Omigosh! If this is the book based on the movie ""Labyrinth"", PLEASE send me info on it! I loved, still love the movie, and would just die if I could get my hands on a copy of the book!"
+9539,1,Typer Island is a bore,"My eight-year old son wouldn't go near this after trying it for one afternoon. The typing lessons are fine, they cover all the basics, but unless your child is super focused and diligent there are simply too many demands before you get to a reward (game). Although designed for kids, it is really not super kid-friendly. The rewards are too far apart, and frankly, not worth the effort. The voices used in this program are annoying, and Typer Island is dull dull dull. It really would have been easy to make this an interesting program...if only someone had thought it through. The creators should look to such educational games as Chess with Fritz and Chesster and some of the Reader Rabbit programs to understand incentives for kids."
+9540,1,Electric Dreams DVD,"I've been waiting a long time for ""Electric Dreams"" to come to DVD so I was delighted to find it available. However, when I loaded it on my DVD player, I was disappointed to find that the picture began to ""roll"" like the old ""vertical"" adjustments on the old style TVs. This was common in the early days with black and white TVs but extremely uncommon with the modern flat screens and there is no adjustment to correct it (at least I don't know of one...) I was able to get it to work on my desktop computer and this was the only reason I didn't return it. I don't know how this movie was copied onto DVD but there needs to me greater care to guarantee that the product performs as expected. Great movie but a big disappointment with the performance of the DVD"
+9541,2,Essential for Modeler's Library,"If I remenber correctly, this was written in England. This was a well written and well laid out book which had so much information. This is one of the best books (of the few) that are written on the subject. The writing is superb and clear."
+9542,2,Very informative book,"This book is an excellent resource! The author is very knowledgeable abvout martial arts and is able to speak to a varied audience. His book goes into great depth in some areas to educate the more experiences, yet, it really helped me as a novice in the martial arts world. I was very interested in the self defence aspect of martial arts and I feel after reading this book that I know more and that I picked up some great things to look into for myself. Martial Arts is such a broad topic that I thought it was very interesting to read about. I had never heard of speed training but now am anxious to try some of his suggestions. This book would be an excellent gift for anyone who is involved with any type of martial arts."
+9543,1,Waste of money,"I wish I could give this book negative stars. That's how bad it was. It's two hundred some pages that could have easily been summed up in maybe a page or two. Basically it states very clearly that you should not nag, bribe, or threaten your children, but it offers absolutely no alternative solutions. It simply states that you should always stay positive it these difficult situtations. But it doesn't tell you what to do while being positive. Absolutely no help to me at all."
+9544,2,Survival kit candle,I fortunately haven't had to use this candle but it is in my survival kit in case of emergency. It is a good buy for the money.
+9545,1,Not Much There There,"This animated film, which features Armageddon between a fox who just cannot get thievery out of his system and three wealthy, but deranged, local farmers, gets points for its original style and a few good laughs, but no more. In the end, it is just another relatively mindless action spectacle--a very sophisticated Bugs Bunny or Roadrunner cartoon. Stack it up against a ""Wall-E"" or a ""Secret of NIMH"" and its fundamental hollowness becomes evident. Unfortunate use of a very high-powered cast."
+9546,1,Torpedoed by it's own extra material.,"Perhaps other reviewers do not read margin quotes. One was from Andrew Greeley, and another one referred to the Holy Spirit as ""she"".If you can swallow this drop of poison, the rest of this little book (178 pages) is a light, easy read covering many topics that most long-time Catholics probably do not know (i.e. what does the title ""Monsignor"" signify, what is the significance of the Church calendar, what is a ""sacristy"", ""alb"" or ""chasuble"", how is the American church organized, what are some of the changes in Catholic practice brought by Vatican II, etc.)Although it would get a high ranking without the quotes, in its current form it does not merit the ""Nihil Obstat"", a few bucks, or more than one star."
+9547,1,P-C 7529,"A good router with reasonably smooth plunging action, but with a few problems that led me to trade it in for a Dewalt 625. The depth measurement rod/device is awkward and not as well designed as I would have expected. The overall power was much less than my old Sears 1 1/2HP router; the P-C was practically stalling out in routing oak, where the Sears was not hesitating. The collets and the edge guide did work well, the kit and case is quite nice, and my shop vac plugged into the dust port with just minor adjustments."
+9548,2,Works Perfect,"I needed this cable for my new stereo for my car. I had it installed and it works great, no problem. If you dont mind having the cord then it should be no problem for you."
+9549,2,"Good Intro to TH, but you need RiL and SMS","Essential Songs that are Missing: Born Under Punches, The Girls want to be with the girlsBest Song: Life During Wartime (live)Worst Song: PopsicleBest Bonus Track: Lifetime Piling Up (essential th track)Buy this album first: Stop Making Sense (and the dvd)Also check out: Look into the Eyeball by David Byrne"
+9550,2,Daniel Auteuil is fabulous,I've been a fan of Daniel Auteuil for some time and look forward to each new movie. This one is very funny and entertaining.
+9551,1,No! No! No!,"Ok, I'll start off by saying that this story had potential in spots but was absolutely ruined by the author's incessant descriptions of weapons and vehicles and maneuvers. Couple that with the acronyms and thin characters and you have a real snoozer.I think that the author assumed that the readers of this story might have been impressed by all of his military verbiage and chapter-long descriptions of weapons but for someone like me who is a civilian, I quickly found myself skipping multiple pages if I felt like the author was going into one of his ""blah blah blah"" modes. It left the story feeling like a giant slice of swiss cheese with only some stale bread to make a readable sandwich.I found myself barely engaged by the end of the story and not caring what happened to the plot or the characters. I would highly advise checking out other books before giving this one a spin if you are into survival fiction - This one would not be my first choice. Or second. Or even tenth."
+9552,1,It's Awful,"I'm a gadgeteer. I play with all kinds of digital and electronics equipment. I'm an amateur radio operator, I write web pages, I run a large corporate network but I can't make this work satisfactorily. I have to agree with Joel's review. While the concept is solid, this unit just does not provide clear audio. I've got it plugged in to my computer right now and can't get a clear signal from any radio in the vacinity. Moving the TuneCast causes alternating static. Just don't buy this, find a better device to do this task."
+9553,1,Bad Drive,"I had this drive for a little over 6 months and it failed on me. I was using it to run portable apps from my various computers. I have had drives fail before, but never this quickly. Considering the cost of the drive, I was very disappointed. Kingston offered to send a replacement, but that did not help me to get back all of the data I lost. I would stay away from this drive and buy a different brand."
+9554,2,the protector's war,Continues an entertaining story and is filled with lots of action. Does a good job of following the characters you're interested in.
+9555,1,Induced compulsion to upgrade software,"Why should the average user spend lots of money, which in turn corresponds to a considerable quantity of sweated work time, which in turn corresponds to time taken away from one's own interests, family and friends, just to buy a new version of an Office suite ? The same job of a new version of, say, a wordprocessor, can basically still be done by a word processor of 20 years ago. Do we really need all these improvements, all these animations, these ""cute effects"" etc. when what we need is simply write a letter or a report and spell-check it? In most cases not at all. But software houses are very good at inducing people to buy their products and let them believe the new version will make them save time: but to save that time they have to work more to pay the bill.This induced compulsion to ever upgrade one's systems is becominng an manipulative invisible taxation system. Much better to use free producs: OpenOffice.org or any other."
+9556,2,A MUST READ!,"A really good book - easy to read and follow. The author makes you feel as if you have known Ammie personally, along with all the other players in this story. For most of us, we have not been exposed to the prejudice and hatred that exists around us and the pain and heartache that is produces. It brought me to tears several times, but it also warmed my heart. I highly recommend this book to all.I was introduced to this book by Ammie's daughter, Christy. Christy played an integral part in my new book ""Angels and Quilt Pieces...Our Journey with a Katrina Family"" - which will be available July, 2007. Christy was one of our ""Angels"" and gave us the ""quilt pieces"" story and theme."
+9557,1,Good for a laugh,"Um, this poetry is really really spectacularly bad. Sorry if you like this kind of thing--I guess some people do. But I honestly have to say that it is terrible. Almost entirely (poorly) rhymed trite catch-phrases, like ""It is really up to me/to be whatever I want to be."" Just a bunch of syrup, content free. My friends and I only read them to each other to make each other laugh because the poems are so bad. Sorry."
+9558,1,"A fascinating subject, a disappointing book","What a great subject Thelma Todd is for a book, and what a shame that this author missed the opportunity she had to write a really good biography. Invented dialogue between Thelma and other people, and the author's undocumented speculations ruin Edmonds' credibility. She missed chance after chance to tell us what made Thelma special, onscreen and off. Her film work, both in features and short subjects (which can now be seen on Odyssey's Leonard Maltin Presents series) are never explored to any degree - but then this author is only interested in the sensational angles of Thelma's life, which sold the book idea in the first place, I'm sure. Sadly, this IS the one biography out there on Thelma. Someday, a legitimate film historian will interest a company such as McFarland or Scarecrow and this unfortunate book will be forgotten."
+9559,1,MARGARET IS TOO POLITICAL,I have read many of Margaret Truman's books and enjoyed some of them. This one is ok for light reading.......but don't believe we need her editorial on all theRepublicans in Washington. Adds nothing to the story by taking nasty little digsat them. She would do well to stick to mystery in these books and if she has a'beef' with the Republicans.......write a book about that. The two don't mix
+9560,1,Not a great learning tool,the italian responses are too fast and are only stated once. I was continually hitting rewind. I found the Mark A. Frobose tapes much more helpful.

+9562,2,Finally!,"I've been waiting for the digital remasters of the greatest live band of the 1970s. Most people know The J. Geils Band only from hearing the tepid ""Centerfold"" on classic rock stations. ""The Morning After"" is their second studio release and shows a band in firm control of their sound and direction.It is a delight hearing Peter Wolf's vocals and J. Geil's restrained guitar, which goes right through you on ""Cry One More Time.""An all-time favorite vinyl of mine is now on CD with full sound. I'm not reliving the past. I am living with timeless blues rock!"
+9563,1,What a Disappointment,"At the beginning of this book, I was captivated by the background of young Kate Elder. Unfortunately, the author definately dropped the ball. There is next to no development of the characters: Silas, little Michael, McGraw et al. They are simply there and then they aren't. The story is told almost as if the author is rushing to get it over with. I just couldn't get involved in Kate's story because the book was so superficial. With such a great character as ""Big Nose Kate"" and her fascinating story, this book is a great disappointment. Now I have to purchase a book about Kate Elder to read ""the rest of the story."""
+9564,2,excellent,"Tori Amos is an amazing storyteller, and Scarlet's Walk is exactly that. Videos on bonus DVD are pretty, and the trinket that comes with the package is cute!"

Then Costa Del Mar Sunglasses are for you!These are worst quality than anything I have seen at Walmart. They oxidize, bend, break, etc all with Costa's lifetime warranty...right? Wrong.Don't take my word for it, google Costa Del mar lifetime warranty and see for yourself."
+9566,1,Rowenta Power Duo problems,"Dont waste your money, this iron worked great in the beginning but with less than 6 months of using it and trust me we do not iron that often, this started dripping water. First noticed as I sat it upright to cool down and returned to find it sitting in a puddle of water. Hasnt worked right since and the steam is not up to par. No reason for the problem as it has never been dropped or knocked around."

+9568,1,stopped working within 1 month,"This is a really cheap mouse. While using it, the cursor would freeze up like every five minutes. Within one month, the mouse stopped functioning all together. So there went my money.Also, this ""optical"" mouse REQUIRES the use of their special mousepad to track correctly. Optical mice are supposed to work on all non-reflective surfaces."
+9569,1,bah,"This review covers episodes 2 to 4 which are very much alike.I was delighted with the first one: gone were the womanish, delicate characters so common in other yaoi, replaced by two strong, witty males involved in dangerous adventures.I do not know why but with her second episode the author, instead of pursuing this fun-filled path, gradually making her two men fall for each other, decided to take a very serious turn for the melodrama.Taki has a heart rending -and uninteresting- past that comes back to literally hunt him. Gone are the fun, the humour, the light hearted adventures, replaced by endless tears and guilt;we are back in the obnoxious routine of a genre made to please romance-loving straight women more than gay men.I guess I should just give it up..."

+9571,2,Entertaining and Absorbing,"I read ""Casey's Revenge"" during a a recent trip to Jacksonville, and it completely distracted me from the rather boring ride. I found the characters (especially Casey) to be believable and sympathetic (the good guys, that is!). The initial scenes when Casey is stranded are quite creepy, and the ending is chilling! I especially liked Casey's resourcefulness and generally tough nature. The Savannah setting is well developed and adds a nice regional touch. Overall, I would recommend it to anyone wanting a captivating suspense novel with some local color. Take it on YOUR next trip!"
+9572,2,Mattress Warmth,works great. Very warm but doesn't burn in spots like my old one did. Easy to see the controls even in the dark. No brainer controls. Love it.
+9573,2,A must for GSD owners,"There is only so much I can actually do with my 14-year old resuced GSD, but I really think that if more people understood the types of things these dogs were meant to do (which do not include sitting around all day and lacking a confident leader to follow), far lass would end up in rescues every year. Just the first section was really helpful. This applies to other working breeds too, of course, but this is one of several books that have helped me get inside my dog's head, helped me understand how he's been misunderstood all of his life, and is helping us tap into his brilliant brain the best we can in his golden years. Good stuff!"
+9574,2,The Era Has Begun!!!!!!!!,"For years, JBL competed in WWE as a member of one of the toughest teams in tag team history - the APA. However, very few people thought that a successful singles career was in his future. Those people were wrong. In the early parts of 2004, JBL revealed to the sports entertainment world that he was a successful businessman outside the ring. He then used his riches to purchase a white stretch limo with bullhorns on the hood, and began wearing expensive suits. He broke away from his longtime partner Faarooq and starting a winning streak like no other. It wasn't long after going single that WWE officials were forced to give him a shot at the WWE Championship. JBL took full advantage of his opportunity at The Great American Bash pay-per-view when he defeated Eddie Guerrero in a Texas Bullrope Match."

+9576,2,"Quick, Fun Read","I would actually give this book 4 1/2 stars. There were some(very few)slow spots in this book, but overall great book! I loved the main character's outlook on Valentine's day, it even went on to explore why she hated it so much. It showed the ghosts of Valentine's Day, just as a Christmas Carol does but much more interesting in my opinion.This was a quick, fun read and I will be looking for other stuff by this author!"
+9577,2,"long ,but very well worth it's hard to put down",This is one of the best books I have read in long timeplus it helped me to read more.AT the beginning it was kind of slow but soon it periked up i couldn't put it down. when they started to get to Roran it was even harder to put it down. right when they got to Ellesmera it was grate to lrean about the elven world. The serprise was relly good what Eragon's teacher was and is. Whan he gets in to the big fight with the army and the Varden and when he meet his brother agian. The BIGGER serprise is at the end of the book. It is a grate gite for a kid 12 and up.
+9578,2,This is not an overblown product,"If you travel to windy places where it rains, this is the umbrella for you. The cheap ""travel"" umbrellas are just that.

+9580,2,Well worth the hunt,"Back in 92, Hot Blood got a minor airplay in Northern California. The song stuck in my head for seven years before buying the CD. Obviously, the disk is much more thoughtful than one woman's obsession. It will be a long term keeper in my CD collection!"
+9581,1,Teachers Beware,"Copyright restrictions allow NO copies or transparencies for classroom use to be made. I wish I had known that before I bought both books. It never occurred to me that a book written by educators for educators would have such restrictions.I rated the item two stars because of the inconvenience and $$$ lost, but to be fair...it is a good book for individual use."
+9582,1,NOT WHAT I EXPECTED!,FOR ME THIS PRODUCT HAD AN ODD SMELL AND FLAVOR THAT MADE ME NAUSEOUS. IT REMINDED ME OF THAT NASTY SUPPOSEDLY APPLE CINNAMON FLAVORED THERAFLU LIQUID MEDICINE. THE GRASSY TASTE THAT OTHER SIMILAR PRODUCTS HAVE WOULD HAVE BEEN A WELCOMED CHANGE COMPARED TO THIS. AT LEAST IT WOULD HAVE BEEN NATURAL. THIS HAS A SWEET BUT VERY ARTIFICIAL AND UNNATURAL TASTE. I WAS ONLY ABLE TO USE IT ONCE AND HAD TO THROW THE REST AWAY. I WAS NOT ALLOWED TO RETURN OR EXCHANGE THE PRODUCT SO THAT WAS 30 BUCKS DOWN THE DRAIN. I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS TO ANYONE.
+9583,2,Balanced and Fair,"No matter what your view is on this subject, you will enjoy seeing this issue from all sides. Each of the four commonly held views of women in ministry are represented, from very conservative to very egalitarian. The facts are laid out for each view, and then other scholars react and respond to each view. It works and is easy reading. This book provides valuable insight on this topic and is worth reading. BJV Dworak"
+9584,1,Did not like this,"When I got this product I was excited, then I tried it =P It says it is supposed to be liquid and mine is more like a gel. Then the label says ""great citrus flavor"" Mine tastes like a salt lick. Did not like the flavor or consistency. I would suggest trying something else."
+9585,2,Ain't Technology Grand!!!,"I've been a voracious reader all my life. I have a deep love of the written word and have therefore accumulated a large number of books over the years. Kindle solves the storage problem associated with this compulsion. I would have rated Kindle 5 stars except for two small items. I would like for the screen to have a back light function that could be turned on/off as the need arose. There is no way that I have found to go to a specific page in the book at will. I have had the need to review facts in a book that were presented many pages back in the text, I failed to bookmark the information the first time, it seems to be time consuming and awkward to page back one-by-one to retrieve the desired data a tab forward and back would make this easier. Enough of the negative, Kindle is wonderful and I highly recommend it to serious book fanatics. I wish it had been available years ago. YOU'LL LOVE IT!!!!!"
+9586,1,Disappointing,Don't waste your time and certainly don't waste your money. If you're looking for a book to relax with and read on your summer vacation this is NOT the book. The characters have no depth and no personality. The story line is nothing but surface fluff and the author makes no attemp to explore the crisis her characters face. By the 24th chapter I thought surely this book would have an exciting climax - NO!...instead the author inserts unrealistic epitaths to wrap up her story in a hurried and inconclusive way. Don't waste your time. Read the Three Sisters Trilogy instead.
+9587,1,A terrible video game,"I don't know about the other incarnations of Batman Returns, but the Sega Mega Drive/Genesis version is downright atrocious. The controls are stiff and slow, Batman himself moves at a snails pace and is frequently unable to move out of the way of oncoming enemies. The sound effects are awful and the combat system is very, very poor. Such a shame consideringBatmanwas so good. Even the music in this one disappoints in comparison to the brilliant tunes in the first game. The only positive thing I can mention about this waste of time and effort are the nice looking graphics which really evoke the gloomy, wintry feel of a frozen Gotham City. Otherwise, avoid!Graphics B-Sound DGameplay FLasting Appeal D-"
+9588,1,Far fetched...,"I thought that this was supposed to be a true story(I may be wrong) but if it is supposed to be true it is rather far fetched. One example is that Kimmel tells how her dog would pick her up by her diaper and put her back it the yard. Sure,maybe in a Disney story! And how she didn't say a single word until she was three and then she said an entire precocious sentence where she strikes a deal with her father. I don't know what it was but something just turned me off to this book. I must be honest, I never even finished it because I was so unimpressed. I grew up in a very small midwest town similar to Mooreland and I just don't feel that her story rings true. I don't know what else to say aside from read the first couple of pages before buying the book (especially in hard cover)and see what you think. If you decide to purchase this book based on the other reviews I hope that you will find pleasure in this book (unlike myself) and prove my review wrong."
+9589,1,Ask for the Holy Spirit's leading when reading,"Before reading this book I asked the Holy Spirit to guide me through it and reveal truth. After a few chapters I began to realize that some of these things did not match up with scripture so I stopped reading. I trust the spirit answered and lead me down His path. I did not have peace while reading. If you choose to read, ask the Lord to guide you into truth."
+9590,2,It was pretty good,"This book was a neat story. The author gave you a small description whenever she used a large word. It had a great begining, a verry exciting middle but the ending was only 4 pages long. I reccomend this book for grade three ang up."
+9591,1,AVOID!,Prohet starts off with a compelling argument. she then drifts off into her misguided view of spiritualism and inner power. She should test all her views against scripture and not take them out of context!
+9592,1,"Daron, please shut up","Other than BYOB this album is fairly disposable. I wasnt even going to buy this album, but after a few listens to BYOB i thought it could be a pretty good listen. I was wrong in thinking this. Daron Malakian's voice i just cannot take. System of a Down has talent, but they dont utilize it here. They're at their best when playing off-timed songs with good chorus and vocals from Serj (who by the way is in good form on this album) I guess I would like this album a ton more if Malakian would just sing in the background or not at all. It just doesnt work for me. I strongly recommend the self titled or Toxicity over this one, maybe the forthcoming ""Hypnotize"" album will be better than this one"
+9593,2,Describing a book about a childhood,"We think the book was pretty good, because of the descriptions of the different incidents. We got the chance to look into the English school system from the old days. How the boys got punished with the cane, and about the teachers behaviour towards the pupils. We also liked Roald Dahl's exact description on how things worked and looked like. For instance describing his different pranks and his different teachers.To sum up: This book was an easy reader, which gave us the opportunities to learn different words and phrases! :)"
+9594,2,"DON""T GET MARRIED",The title is the conclusion you will come to after you have read this book. The book is a fast read and entertaining but will jade your perception of marriage!
+9595,2,"Before the Duke Lacrose Case, there was The Massie Affair","Fascinating, well told account of what happens when race trumps all. Those interviewed are generally very insightful, with the exception of Haunani-Kay Trask, who makes sweeping generalizations that detract from the impartiality. My thoughts keep returning to this injustice three days after I watched it on PBS.If only we weren't doomed to make the same mistakes and could have learned from history, maybe reason would have prevailed over emotion before three more young men's lives were ruined in North Carolina. The parallels are spooky!"
+9596,1,JustAnther peace of media SPAM to discredit the Internet ...,"In this book Clifford Stoll makes an important point or two about the Internet but as usual, Stoll sounds more like an unhappy child who would prefer not to share any of his toy's with the World. Clifford Stoll has found gainful employment as a main stream media goon who's sole purpose is to Bash the Internet while managing to appear credible, Clifford Stoll is truly an academic elitist who is unhappy with the Internet being open to the public wear it can act as an alternative press to the more conservative corporate main stream media outlets like MS-NBC, clearly the establishment is Internet phobic and Clifford Stoll is a spokes Man on the payroll of a media & softwear giant.. I think it's no ascedant that the NY Times, Washinton post & Chicago Tribuneno all wasted no time manufactur good revues to this 2ed rate book as a way to promote this peace of pro-establishment propaganda.................:-"
+9597,1,Textbook,The reading is a bit complex. A lot of information. Definitely a read that needs a constructive guidance from a professor.

+9599,2,Classics,"This DVD shows you the past, present, and future of country comedy, but unlike some other tribute DVDs, this one features clips that everyone can relate to. My kids laughed through routines by Don Knotts and Jim Varney before hearing material from new comers Larry the Cable Guy and Ron White. To top it all off there is outstanding performances of Foxworthy and Engvall in Las Vegas to close it off. It sure is a classic!"
+9600,2,A saxman like this can converse,"My title comes from the second track on this luxuriously smooth-as-silk sax album by Kim Waters. That track, ""A Love Like This"", is a 4:37 piece of original soprano sax playing that is so lush that Kim has made it my favorite of the entire album. The depth of feeling that Kim transmits through his playing of soprano sax really gets the listener in a groove you never want to end.The whole point to the album is summed up in the title track ""From The Heart"" as Kim takes you along on a musical conversation that teaches the art of listening. This is a lesson we all can learn by hearing and re-hearing the beguiling ""Royal Groove.""While playing this CD you get drawn in to another world with romantic mood music that will put you in a healing frame of mind after a long day of whatever."
+9601,2,Buy this mp3!,I really like this little thing alot. The sound is good and it so easy. i am not a tech wizard by any means and i could do it!!! The fm radio doesn't get alot of stations in my area but other than that i like it.
+9602,2,Excellent Introduction to VHDL,This book is an excellent introduction to VHDL. It covers a wide array of basic commands as well as their benefits and short-comings. It also covers more powerful commands which are good for large projects or creating reusable pieces. It also comes with a rather old program and examples that go along with the text of the book. Definitely a must have for anyone just getting into VHDL.
+9603,1,"Ultimately, Disappointed in a Shipping Error","Everything seemed to go really well - the order was smooth, the delivery came on time, and, I thought that I had received the movie that I wanted for a Christmas gift. However, when opened, the wrong DVD disc was inside the package. I had planned a movie night to share the classic film and was disappointed to have to cancel it.Now, I am in the process of a returning the item.So far, the company is responding well. I am sure they will ""make good"" on the ""error""; it was just a bit of a let-down. Hopefully, I will either get the correct movie, or, a full refund ."

+9605,1,Do Not Buy,"Pigface is purely a tool for Martin Atkins to exploit other artists that are more successful than him. I doubt anyone besides Martin Atkins has seen a penny from Pigface sales, do not buy anything from this guy, he is not worthy of your hard earned money."
+9606,2,Enormously Satisfying and Rich book.....,"This was one of the most intellectually exciting books I have read in a long time. Ewald covers biochemistry, history, social policy, medicine, and academic research in a wonderfully thoughtful, logical, innovative and exciting 'new' way of looking at germ theory.I wholeheartedly and unreservedly recommend this book as an excellent contribution to scientific literacy, intelligent conversation, and global health policy. (...)Happy Reading!"
+9607,2,I can't get enough of her books...,"This is not just a beach/vacation read. Ms. Frank takes you there, you can feel the breeze, taste the salt air, and you feel like you are among friends. If you aren't a fan, you will be after reading this book. I love the main character liked how she grew. Just goes to show you, that you are never to old to change (for the better I might add). Love the book, keep them coming...Highly recommended."
+9608,1,Only worked some of the time...,"I would recommend against buying these speakers. They look very cool, and I really wanted them to work well. The price was right, but the sound was only marginally better than the speakers on my laptop, and they just didn't work consistently with all applications. When they did work, they were static'y and again, just didn't offer that much of an advantage over the laptop's built in speakers. I sent it/them back to Amazon. The Logitech V20 speakers cost more and aren't as compact, but they actually work! I ended up with them and overall I am satisfied."
+9609,2,Not all gold but a major element of the 50s Broadway canon,"For those who admire Bob Merrill's extraordinary talent [sometime music and lyrics, sometime, lyrics only: [Carnival, Take Me Along, 2 songs inserted into Hello, Dolly, Funny Girl, etc.] this album is waiting.While not extraordinary at all, this is a prime example of true middle line musicals that made the 50s, the Golden Age. It wasn't just the runaway hits that gave the period that name! Orchestration-wise, one can 'hear' the beginnings of the choreographic genius of Bob Fosse. One only wishes that the music from the 'Brothel Ballet' was included.All performances are 1st rate...but what else would you expect from a team like this?!"
+9610,1,Horrible phone: freezes up all the time,"This is just a horrible phone; it freezes up all the time, whether you are entering someone's number or you are checking email. Even a reset doesn't work -- I have to pull the battery out to reset. I can't change the options of one of the email accounts I created and can't delete it. There are so many other such gotchas -- I will never buy a Windows Mobile phone again and highly recommend against a Blackjack."
+9611,1,Don't waste your money on this one!,"Im not one to normally write reviews, but i felt i had to in case someone was considering buying this product for their plantar F. I tried this product for a couple nights and honestly i could not get through an entire night with this sock on. My Toes were numb after about 45 minutes and the top of my calf where the socks ends, i felt like i was losing blood circulation. It was too tight and once i took the sock off after about an hr or two, i felt nothing but relief throughout my leg. Now it wasnt cause i got a sock that was not my size. I ordered the correct size for me as indicated. so my advise would be to try another product instead of this one. I was completely disappointed!!!"
+9612,1,Much unnecessary wind and rambling,"Booch can really write the filler material. Dull, repetitious and imprecise! 10% good material..wasting trees! Prefer Muller's ""Instant UML"" by far. Forget ""UML Distilled"" which is an OO society book. Dahlings!..the 3 Amigos are having a party. Stick to science!"
+9613,2,Its Bunn Good,Fast and works great. Just remember to delime every two months. Must be carefull when moving under counter. Worth the cash.
+9614,2,Morgan gave this to Jake,"My daughter had to have this, then got tired of it and gave it to her cousin, who was completely thrilled to have it."
+9615,2,Pilot Super Color Black,"Simply amazing marker. The nib on this thing is huge and is pretty durable. Ink comes out smoothly, especially on any metal or glass. Can get streaky on non laminated paper howverer.Being able to refill this marker is a huge selling point, and I highly suggest buying the combo deal that includes the refill ink.I think black is the best color in this marker line because the black ink is the most fade resistant, with red being the least.Overall, great purchase for a few bucks."
+9616,2,This book was written in 1947 but the author has a vision for today.,"The Future of Man is an inspiring, dynamic forward thinking collection of essays given at different times to different groups of scientist or other types of groups. This was a mind expanding experience."
+9617,2,Great Music,"I have not heard much of Mingus' music but this disc is spectacular. It is great introduction to Mingus (and jazz) because it is so clearly rooted in the blues that most will find it vaguley familiar, although it takes you far beyond the blues. Mingus' gregarious personality shines through on each track. Highly recommended!"
+9618,2,figured it would suck but it didn't!,after seeing the trailers on tv for this (quite a while ago!) I figured it would be a cheesy movie with a few one liners - boy was I wrong! it surprised me from the beginning and I can still laugh while thinking of a few parts of it now! I don't even like Cameron Diaz but in this she does GREAT!not one for kids though! I still won't let mine watch but I'm strict like that.
+9619,1,"Ordered twice, moldy both times!","When my first set of bones arrived covered in thick, hairy, green mold, I just sent them back and asked for a replacement. I thought that it might just be a one time thing. But my replacment set of bones came covered with the same type of mold. I am very disappointed! Amazon rarely disappoints me, but it has this time. I will just have to look for these at my local pet store."
+9620,1,Simplistic view of why men leave the church,"I was able to read this book...or I should say, some of this book. I only read three chapters of this book and was deeply disappointed in how this book portrays the church and the simplicity of the lack of men in the modern church.Let me give you an example from the third chapter:""So men avoid church-and suffer for it. Men are more likely than women to be arrested, die violently, commit and be victims of crimes, go to jail, and be addicted. They also die more often on the job, have more heart attacks, commit suicide in greater numbers and live shorter lives than women"" (Murrow 23).So, men, if you want to live longer and not die on the job, you better get yourself to church!"
+9621,1,Did not make it through the winter,I've used this cover for about a year now. My bike sits outside on my front porch and is pretty exposed so I wanted a cover that could really protect it. We had a pretty snowy winter and this cover did NOT last. Right now it has so many rips and cracks that it is almost useless. Like one of the other reviewers I also found that it blew off a couple times in stronger winds. I'm sure it's fine for general storage inside a garage or other protected area.
+9622,2,LIFE SAVER for 1st Time Mother,"I started reading this book when my son was 10 weeks.At that time, he was waking up every four hours to eat, he cried anywhere from 1 to 4 hours a day for unknown reasons, and I was exhausted. Two days after I put him on a schedule suggested in this book, he started sleeping the entire night and no more unexplained crying. As a matter of fact, family and friends comment on his happy nature. Because I am a first time mother, I didn't know how many hours he should be sleeping or awake. Before reading this book, I didn't realize that he was exhausted and this was the reason for the crying. Once he started napping about 5 to 6 hours during the day, then he began sleeping all night. Sleep begets sleep!"
+9623,2,Highly recommended,I love this movie. Every family should have it. It makes you want to be a better person. I highly recommend it to everyone.Kirsten(...)
+9624,2,Great book!! :),"I love this book!! It is in my top ten favorites!! Once I started reading it, I couldn't put it down! Hockey fans will definitely love it! There aren't many books out there about hockey or even hockey players so when I found this one I knew I had to try it. I definitely wasn't disappointed. Would love to read it again, but sadly don't have the time."
+9625,2,Nice camera!,"This is my first digital camera, so I don't have a lot to compare it with, but so far I'm quite pleased.I did a lot of research. I was looking for a camera with a decent zoom lens, image stabilization, an optical viewfinder, and a 2.5 inch LCD; all for under $250. I think I got a very good camera for a very good price.My pictures have come out great. I'm a little slow in learning the fine points, but so far I've managed to take some decent pictures and do some very nice editing. I kind of wish I'd spent a little more for a stronger zoom, but I'm still pleased. I'd definitely recommend this camera."
+9626,2,Walk A Wetland With This Guy,"Well-written and an easy read. It made me want to do 2 things: Strap on my waders and head to the nearest wetland to see what I can find and order the other books in his ""wet sneaker"" trilogy. Enjoy."
+9627,2,Finally the real Welsh Mysteries,"Excellent portrayal of Welsh Mysteries. This book is causing a great hubub in Welsh Pagan circles only because it has been mentioned by pagans who want to be known as the be all of Welsh Paganism. They don't want a yank to be known as a Welsh Witch, so they have inlisted the help of neo-wales extremists who invent e-mail addresses and keep trashing the author. Not the book mind you. The book is great. The book is true. And how would I know? Because until last week I was loosely associated with this bonkers group. They have become nasty and obsessed and totally bonkers. The book is Great. The author is honest. The time is right."
+9628,2,Sweet and endearing,This is a classic romance that needs desperately to be reprinted. It has a sweet tenderness that puts other books of this genre to shame. I'd love to see it in electronic form for the Kindle and Nook. I was so glad to find this book having read it years below. It's one I read annually just to feel good about the possibility of good people winning.
+9629,1,Robinson Crusoe,"The long awaited ""Adventures of Robinson Crusoe"" has finally arrived on home video on DVD by VCI. This DVD entitled ""Robinson Crusoe"" purports to be a ""restoration."" The original film had two things going for it - a fine performance by Dan O'Herlihy and vivid color. VCI got one out of two. The so-called restoration's color is sub-par, although they managed to get a lot of dirt and scratches out, the color is not close to being vivid. It didn't help that it was filmed in bargain basement Pathecolor. The sound track has on and off thumping noises that are most annoying. Only if you are a fan of this film is it worth seeing or even buying. This restoration looks like it was one of those digital jobs. VCI should leave the restorations to Criterion and Robert A. Harris. I was really looking forward to this DVD but ended up being badly disappointed."
+9630,2,Good Oil Thingy,"It's a very nice looking oil thing.It's a lot smaller than it looks in the picture.And as I can attest, the glass is pretty thin. The first one I ordered didn't last even 5 min. out of the box. It was dropped at about 6in. and shattered into a million very sharp pieces.But it is very nice looking, works as it should and the wife approves.The dripper thing is kind of slow, but not because of the size of the hole. But it looks like it's having trouble getting air in to equal the pressure.But whatever!"
+9631,2,Wow! Loved it.,"When my friend recommended this book to me, I was suspicious, because he couldn't explain what he loved so much about it, but I can!! It's inspiring! It made me think about my life and what I want to get from it. Actually, it made me think of lots of things, too many to mention here. And it just gets better as you read. Great story. I can't wait to read the sequel and find out what happens next!"
+9632,1,Terrible,Out of the box we noticed the table top was warped. When you push on one side of it the other pops up. Definately not suitable for crafts or play. Returned it that night!
+9633,1,Not the Dave Schools Slang,"NOT Slang,at least the Dave Schools band of Bellwether and More Talk..this is a group of east europeans,who do sound a little like Slang but very trite and lame. Nothing to hear-move along."
+9634,2,Good condition,"Came in great condition, nice quality and of course wonderful show. Has special features and nice cardboard outside layer. Very recommended."
+9635,1,"Wrong, wrong, wrong","The product was sent to me, correct color but wrong size. I returned it only to receive it again, correct color but wrong size. Very misleading description of the product and/or size of the case."
+9636,2,"The Network Architecture Design Handbook : Data, Voice, Mult",I found The Network Architecture Design Handbook to be one of the best books on the subject of hybrid and LAN\WAN networking. I highly recommend it to anyone who is seriously interested in learning more or just looking to expand his or her knowledge base in this fascinating field.
+9637,1,A piece of JUNK!,"This slingshot is a piece of JUNK! - It broke 3 times, the first ~3 uses. The handle broke twice and then the rubber strap broke, rendering it useless. Thankfully, Amazon has an awesome return policy."
+9638,2,Red Midnight,"The book takes place in Mexico. Santiago and his little sister are trying to escape from being killed by the solders who have already killed everyone in their village. Santiago escaped to his uncle's house with his little sister. When they arrived there, his uncle's neighbors were there watching his possessions. If the solders found out that Santiago ran away, they would kill him and his little sister. They will have to sail to the United States. The neighbors gather up all the food they have, for it will have to last for 20 days. The neighbor will sail with Santiago and his little sister faces some exiting adventures. You'll just have to read the book to find out!I liked this book. I liked this book because I always wanted to know what happened next, or if they ever reached the United States. I couldn't put it down until I reached the end. I would recommend this book to any one who likes a fun adventure."
+9639,1,A TICKING TIME BOMB -- BEWARE!!,"Most of these reviews are written by new owners. I loooooved this printer at the beginning, too. After 300pp, however, the toner light came on, will not go off, and it will not print. I went online and found HUNDREDS of owners bewailing the same fate. I tried all the recommended fixes, including buying yet ANOTHER new cartridge. I called Tech Support at Brother and they were unhelpful, unsympathetic, and rude. Tomorrow I take it into the repair shop. But I think this is a pile of junk. I HIGHLY regret buying it."
+9640,1,Only good for a year or two,"I have been through a number of Sony DVD players, most recently this one. After a year and a half, it just quit playing all discs. Keep looking, there must be a better quality product out there."
+9641,2,Fantastic product...,"Got the Showerbreeze and have been using it for a few weeks. It practically flushes the taste out of my mouth! Seriously, I use the Showerbreeze every morning and my teeth feel as though I've come from a dental cleaning. Great way to get the day started.Initially, my teeth and gums were sensitive to the water pressure; yet, after a few days, the sensitivity has disappeared. I'll update this review after my semi-annual dental checkup and post my dentist's observations on the condition of my teeth, gums, etc."
+9642,2,Fan of the show since it came out,"OK I've been collecting all the DVD's since they started to release them.My question is what happened with the specail edition ones? You know the ones with the plastic heads of each family member, so far the only ine that is missing is Bart. Why did they stop or is the one that Amazon showing for season ten the box one and will show the special edition one when it comes out? Seems unfair to start having special edition of each family members head only to stop with one last character.In any case, I can not wait for season ten to come out, regardless of some negative comments about the later seasons, I still enjoy watching them and will collect all the seasons as the come out until the show stops."
+9643,2,"Wow, that is a big watch or just ""Wow!""","I usually get ""Wow! That is a big watch"" or just ""Wow, nice watch."" I say, yeah I bought it on the web and I had no idea how big it was going to be. This watch is big. It's surprisingly not very heavy at all. Very well put together. The band is some space age type super vulcanize rubber. I'm only half joking. I don't know what the stuff is, but it's very comfortable and super durable.The glass is amazingly scratch resistant. I've looked at the face a couple of times after whacking it on a door or a computer or whatever and thought, ""this is it, scratch city"" and nothing. Not even the slightest scratch. Again, I think Nike is using alien technology - probably from the Vulcans.I don't use any of the features. There are a few I'm sure. I just haven't been interested in any of the features from day one. It was really strange, I just took the instruction booklet and hucked in a drawer.That's all I have to say on this watch. Oh yeah, did i mention it's huge."
+9644,1,Everyone who disagrees must be an America-hating liberal.,"Gross simplifications, and cheap pandering to the most extreme views of her party (much like Michael Moore for the far left, whom I also despise), makes for some boring fodder from another bleached-blond ""pundit"".Childish sniping by the likes of Ingraham & Moore only serve to antagonize the vast majority of Americans who are centrists and who have a little common sense. I'm not sure how stupid you have to be to buy this line of argument: if you think SUVs unnecessarily waste gas, then you're an America-hating liberal, and if you don't approve of George Bush's handling of our country, you must be an al Qaeda-loving terrorist.Let's hope that the majority of reasonable-minded people can look past the divisiveness of today's politics and relegate people like Laura Ingaham's junk to the garbage can."
+9645,2,Fits Great but crowds the finger a little.,Fits Great but crowds the finger a little. I have big hands. I do like the product and would recommend the product to anyone needing a under barrel laser pointer or flashlight. Be careful when trying to attach anything to this that will be above the barrel. Shell ejection was a problem.
+9646,1,Huh???,"I'm a Microsoft COM/DCOM person, very technical, needing to understand the alternative technology: CORBA. This book spends time explaining the OMG organizational structure, committee procedures, etc and when you get to the more technical sections you forget you left the prior section. I couldn't grasp the concepts or map them into anything I know. It lacks a clear direction or teaching methodology. They guys at Visigenic recommended this book, but I give it a thumbs down. When I was through the first few chapters I said, ""Huh???"" and promptly returned to book for a refund."
+9647,2,This rocks!,"If you like power driven pop/hardcore like Monsula, you'll love this. Fell in love with this band at a show in which they blew away the headlining band. This record has more hooks than a bait shop. GET IT NOW!"
+9648,1,Disappointing and Prosaic,"Before buying this video, I had read the plot and it sounded intriguing. This is a movie that I would recommend you rent before you buy it. In the two or three times I've watched this I've been very disappointed in it. It's not the acting, the movie just doesn't seem to go anywhere. Some of director Werner Herzog's movies tend to be like this one, in that they don't match up to what they should've. This movie is hard to get into and it's a choir sitting through the whole thing. The only thing I found that was of any interest was the scene in the glass factory when they were trying to make the ruby glass. Disappointing."
+9649,1,This CD is Horrible don't buy it!,"This CD was not as good as i thought it would be. ""I Wanna Love You Forever"" is an okay, but annoying song and its the best one on there. But the rest of the cd is horrible!"
+9650,1,Recommended for those with long stays in Paris,"I was frustrated with this book's organization. I wanted to know things like which restaurant had the best chocolate mousse in Paris, which were the best values for the money, etc. With only one weekend in Paris, this book was too detailed for me and too difficult to quickly navigate."
+9651,1,This card adapter doesn't work with my HP printer,"I purchased my Fuji CompactFlash xD Card Adapter elsewhere and it doesn't work in my HP officejet 7130 all-in-one. It won't load in as it's supposed to but will fit correctly backwards. Except then I get an amber light that says there is a card error. This is supposed to work with my all-in-one but it doesn't. For that reason, I'd give it a zero star rating if such a rating existed. I'm going to take this CP version back and hope the more updated CPF version works. I'm a travel writer planning to take my own photos to go with my articles, but I'm getting nowhere fast with this card adapter that refuses to work properly. This one is definitely a thumbs down. However, this is my first dud Fuji product I've bought and I love Fuji digital cameras."
+9652,2,Nice Book!,"Even though the title can be a little misleading....the years actually shown are 1989 through 1997, the book is still worth owning. I found it useful in ways other than looking for values, using it to ID the ""playline"" dolls that were unboxed years ago. The book is categorized nicely, easy to find what you're looking for. The photos are not perfect, but good enough to see every detail of the doll's faces in both a close-up as well as a full shot, showing original clothing.I recommend this book, it's a nice keepsake to remind us of Barbie's many, many transitions and looks over the years. Enjoy!"
+9653,1,BULL!!!!!!,I MUST SAY I WAS EXPECTING A LOT MORE THAN I GOT WITH THIS BOOK. IT CONSISTS MOSTLY OF SCRIPTURE QUOTES AND DECLARATIONS THAT GOD IS GREAT. I REFUSE TO BELIEVE THAT THE GOD I KNOW HAS ANGELS STATIONED IN CHURCHES WITH CLIP BOARDS RECORDING THE EXACT AMOUT EVERYBODY DONATES TO THE CHURCH AND THEIR ATTITUDE ABOUT THEIR DONATIONS. I WOULD HOPE THAT OUR EVERLASTING SOUL WAS DEPENDANT ON MORE THAN ATTENDING CHURCH SERVICES EVERY SUNDAY AND PAYING TITHING. I KNOW A LOT OF PEOPLE THAT GO TO CHURCH AND PAY THEIR TITHING AND SCREW OVER THEIR FELLOW HUMAN BEINGS ON MONDAY.THERE IS NOTHING NEW OR REVOLUTIONARY ABOUT THIS BOOK OR IT'S CONTENTS. VERY VERY DISAPPOINTED!!!!
+9654,1,Will not align,"Cartridge will not align, tried several times, same message, finally gave up. Had to buy another from local store. Did not expect timis will not work."
+9655,2,I'd say this is for only TRUE I Love Lucy nuts. :-),"I received ""The I Love Lucy Trivia Game"" about a year ago, and it's still in fine condition! So, I'd say this wears pretty good, but it sure isn't very educational for kids. Sorry, but what hotel the Mertzes stayed at nearly 50 years ago, just isn't that important in making big decisions. :-/Although! This is a great gift for that ""Lucy nut"" in your life. It has really hard trivia, not just simple questions like, ""What color was Lucy's hair?"" or something else WAY too easy. This will truly challenge those ""Lucy nuts"" out there, so I recommend it to anyone with a passion for ""Lucy"". :-DI do hope this review helped. :-)"
+9656,2,Excellent Romance Novel,"When I started reading this book, I was unsure that it would be as good as the others I have read. I enjoyed it even more! The story seems a little like ""Anastasia"" but it draws you in. The twist at the end of the book is totally unexpected and makes the book even better than you can imagine. If you are a true romance novel fan you will enjoy this book--don't pass it up!"
+9657,2,The moral side of abortion,"This is a wonderfully written book by US President Ronald Reagan. Not only does this book address the moral issue of abortion and how it affects the very fiber of our nation, but does so without condemnation."
+9658,1,Slightly Better Than Junk,"How many plastic trees gave their lives for this toy? One is one too many.The sound, visuals and gameplay are worse than 1970's video games. The speed is so fast (you cannot adjust the speed) that you end up just hitting steps in random.I thought this would be a good toy because it is the dance game which you can plug directly into the TV; you don't have to own an additional game system.Skip this and get something else."
+9659,2,Tom ochrane Mad Mad World,This is a very good CD. Like most music you like some songs better than others.
+9660,1,Nerf Blaster,They say NERF or nothing this rather a big Nothing. This you can shoot hardley any where. It's okay for close range but if you shoot someone while you are hiding it just give you away.
+9661,2,Meets expectations,"We purchased this for our 16 month old. We had the three-in-one swing to toddler chair for our older children, but they stopped making it, so this was the next best thing. This chair has a very cute pattern and is a nice comfortable chair. Our child seems to really like sitting in it."
+9662,2,It is a simple and nice watch.,Seiko Men's SGG711 Quartz Titanium Case and Bracelet WatchMy friend like it very much.He said the watch was simple but looks very nice. It is match with his style.
+9663,2,Fantastic Time Piece,"Received this Citizen Eco-Drive watch over a week ago and it is as elegant as advertised. Purchase this as a Birthday gift for my wife and she just loves it. I own 2 Citizen Eco-Drive time pieces and am impressed with the quality as well as the time accuracy. I'm a fan of Citizen brand watches and expect these will last a lifetime with normal use. When comparing prices at some of the local stores and several websites, the prices advertised in Amazon are very competitive and fair. Outstanding product and vendor. Thank you for the quick shipment which was received just in time for my wife's Birthday."
+9664,2,Great product at great price,I've been really happy with this product. I'm particularly pleased that it's produced from already harvested fish parts that would otherwise be wasted. (There is occasionally a fish aftertaste but I'm not sure that's avoidable with any salmon oil softgels.)
+9665,2,Literary science fiction at its very best.,"Hyperion contains some of the best storytelling of this or any other century. The book is layered with references to Geoffrey Chaucer's Canterbury Tales and the poetry of John Keats. If you're not familiar with either, don't worry: Hyperion is one of the most intensely readable books you'll find. It's also the beginning of a four-part series. The Fall of Hyperion is just as good as Hyperion and I recommend you buy them both. However, the intensity, plotting and strength fall off in the final two books, Endymion and The Rise of Endymion."
+9666,1,spend the extra cash on a better quality TV,I've had this television for less than a month and I already have problems with the picture. I'm getting an annoying pinkish blotch of discoloration on the right side of my screen. be wary of buying this one. I myself should have taken the negative reviews into consideration. Do yourself a favor spend the extra cash on a better TV.
+9667,2,Excellent!,"This book is a must-read for any archaeology student. I agree with other reviewers that the title is somewhat misleading, however the author uses the site of Sipan only as a case study. He includes information about many other sites and legal cases as they fit in with topics covered in the case study. The best part of this book is that the author actually offers plausible suggestions for solving the problem, not just complaining about it. I am, of course, against tomb robbing, but I also value the material available in museums. I recomend that readers also look into the museum and collector's positions in order to form your own opinion. This book is very persuasive (especially the photos), but I would still try to keep an open mind."
+9668,2,Nice Cheese slicer,"The cheese slicer is exactly like the one I presently own. I have had it for 15 years and only recently the wire broke. There was another wire attached at the back so we used that but decided to order an identical slicer in case this one also broke.The package arrived, the product was identical except that the wire was BROKEN and we had to use the extra wire already instead of having it for an extra. Now we don't have an extra. Other than that it is a very good slicer and delivery was prompt."
+9669,1,Software was returned,The software description was not explicit as to which MAC platform it would work on. My Power PC MAC will not run the software so it was returned to Amazon.
+9670,2,A good sci-fi thriller,"The book is essentially about the reproduction of dinosaurs through genetic engineering with the aim of recreating and controlling them in an amusement park located on a remote island for the sole purpose of earning enormous profits. Of course, the masterminds behind this farfetched scheme failed to consider that the dinosaurs lived millions of years ago during another age in different climate conditions and that their behavior could not be controlled by man nor security measures installed at the park. Predictably, the predators are the main threat to the unlucky party of experts dispatched to the island. T-rexes, a dilophosaurus and dozens of fearsome velociraptors escape their confines through their savage, ferocious cunning as well as man's ignorance of the animals they attempt to reproduce. Michael Crichton's novel is heavy on technical details and medical theories that slow down the narrative in places, but the story remains a fine thriller."
+9671,2,"from one generation to the next, it still works,","but a gender neutral doll that wets may be hard to find. I just sent this book to my daughter who, by the way, was completely trained in 2-1/2 hours at about 20-months of age. My older son had also been successfully trained with only one or two minor mishaps by 23 months in 3-1/2 hours. I can't remember anything about the book or its methods other than needing lots of juice, M&M's, a child's toilet, a wetting doll and a block of time. I just know it worked and neither Sam (age 35) nor Jess (age 32) has worn diapers since. Now I'm sending the very same book for my grandson's use. May it serve his parents well."
+9672,1,waffle sticker?,"we have yet to get a waffle out in one piece. we have tried brushing oil, changing the settings, etc. All to no avail. I would not reccomend this product to anyone."
+9673,2,"I have to admit, this IS a good CD...","I was lucky enough to get this a week ago, in like-new condition ,from Amazon. Fast shipping,too.On to the CD. At first listen, I wasn't overly thrilled. Some of Schenker's latest releases are so darn good and this seemed like a step back to a lesser state. BUT...I started breaking it down, note by note,tune by tune, and then I realized I had gotten very lucky getting a copy of this one. I have been a huge fan of the Lights Out album since '77,and I guess I was expecting the next better step, to be slammed in the face. What actually happened was a more gradual realization that these older fellows got together and put out a killer CD. If Lights Out had production like this...man,oh,man! But Schenker plays better on this, and Mogg still has his melodic signature, while the band is ""all there"".They did a great job and I am now very proud to have this in my collection.If ya dig Schenker,get a copy while you can."
+9674,2,Awesome album,"Although Tom Petty has already been rock & rolling for a few decades, but this is actually the first time that I listened to any of his classic rock hits. Tom petty and the Heartbreakers' album ""Anthology - through the years"" collects the best hits of the artist in two discs. In this album, I found an artist uses many different styles to perform and present his work, from melancholy blues, sensual ballads, to rousing rock and roll. It shows the talents of the artist and the reason for him being the classic rock star of the time.Simple and melodic guitar chords accompanied with the calm and uncomplicated rhythm, ""Free falling"" is one of the soft rock ballads that I love the most from this collection. ""Jammin' me"" and ""Mary Jane's Last Dance"" are both great tracks from the album that shows what Petty is most well-known for - Rock & Roll. Overall, I think the album is a great collection of classic rock and for the avid Petty fans; this album should be the must-own."
+9675,2,the hair is nice but is cheap,first i gave the doll 4 stars becuze her hair is very pretty but is cheap i comed her hair and it fell out pretty doll but very cheap hair amd also the dress rips plus bratz rule way over my scene and my scene is so paris hilton and i dont mean looks their brains peace fqers
+9676,2,Works,"Bought it for my mom, who said her Estroven wasn't working all that well. She was recommended this from someone, and then I did some research, turns out it's been used for decades in Europe, Australia, and NZ - and it truly works. No hormone replacement, and not crazy chemicals either. Pretty great stuff according to my mom!"
+9677,1,Both delighted and disappointed,"When I got this book and paged through it, I was delighted with the baby blankets and I've decided to knit several of them. I was also excited because I love the ""Yarn Shop"" series. Debbie Macomber captures the spirit of a Local Yarn Shop beautifully.So was I bitterly disappointed when I looked up the recommended yarns for the project. These are yarns that are available in large chain stores, not in local yarn shops. I can appreciate that people are interested in knitting affordably, but there could at least be a mix of yarns. Much of what I loved about the original books is the knitting community that takes place in a local yarn shop. Having ALL of the recommended yarns in the pattern books come from chain stores betrays the premise of the stories. The stories could not have taken place anywhere else, yet the companion books send you to buy yarn from the very stores that are driving small shops out of business."
+9678,1,Boring,"I'm not sure what they were trying to achieve with 'Magic Mike' but it turns out to be neither fish nor fowl -- and watching Matthew McConaughey chew up the scenery got tedious very, very quickly."
+9679,2,buy this cd NOW!,"i first heard ""are you gonna be my girl"" in the ipod commercial, and immediately looked up who sings it online. i saw that it was jet, and then proceeded to buy their cd. that is how fast i decided that their music is great, and u will too."
+9680,2,As good as the reviews,"I've used this helmet for my first 2 outside ventures, and it's excellent. Very light, doesn't get too hot, and I (like others wrote) actually forgot I was wearing it. As a new climber, it gives me a good peace of mind, allowing me to continue to develop my other skills and safety practices without worrying about my noggin so much."
+9681,2,Native Music Done A New Way,"I bought this album after getting a free sampler from the record company after buying another title. May You Walk In Sunshine was on the free C.D., and I thought I would give it a try. I was very impressed with the album. Excellent music with Native American chants. I was a bit leary about getting such an album, but after listening to it, I am very glad I bought it. I listen to it after hard days at work, and the next thing I know I am ready to go. In order to keep this review short, I will just say this: GET THIS ALBUM NOW !! You will not be sorry. Enjoy !!"
+9682,1,Why do you persist? We ask the same thing!!!,"I really loved the Matrix. Smart, movie that caught you off guard. But Matrix Reloaded should have been labelled Matrix Re-bloated. It was silly, pretentious and basically laughable in spots. Neo goes Superman. Blah! And yes, I really gave it several chances to see if it would improve.So I held off with this final installment - 2 installments too any. Bigger is not better, it's just more of the same overblown mess than Reloaded was. Trinity's death scene was bland, failing to move me. It was so much special effects, and some quite funny.Wave bye bye Neo...thankfully!! This movie series will go down in the history of film as how NOT to make a sequel and a sequel's sequel."
+9683,1,Not so much.,Nope. Works better as a hair serum than on my skin. It eliminates frizz wihout weighing my baby blonde fair hair down and won't cause breakouts. Disappointed with it as a facial....anything. Oh well. I say buy obaji and save your money on this product.
+9684,2,a little light dispels a lot of darkness,"This is one of the most fascinating and thought-provoking books that I ever read. Ms. Frank not only gives a face to someone that lived through one of modern civilization's most horribly time periods, but she also manages to give hope to so many people. This book has touched so many lives, mine included. I have read it as a child and an adult and each time I read it I find something in it that is more fascinating and new. This is a book that everyone must read so we never forget what happened and never take anything for granted."
+9685,2,Zapp! A great resource.,This book is great for helping managers and superivors see the difference between building a team and dictating to individuals. The story line is used effectively in communicating the damage done by negative thinking and stale attitudes. I recommend it for group reading and discussion.
+9686,2,"great deal, great product",Good quality bags for a good price. I am using them to store my jewelry and they work perfectly. Thanks.
+9687,1,Does not work very well on course hair,I have struggled with this product for a few weeks and it still gives me grief. I'm going back to threading.
+9688,2,The are amazing!,"Now, i LOVE this cd. but lets be honest. Every song after track 6 are not really that great. i mean 33 is terrible. But the first 6 songs up to Delirium Trigger are some of the best songs I have ever heard. I think they need to brush up those last few though! ive seen em twice and met the band and they are totally cool as hell, i just wish the cd was a little better at the end."
+9689,2,Fabulous Early Australian,"E.V.Timms is a classic writer and one who is hard to put down. The characters are believable and you will feel you are right there in the pages of the story. You experience first hand,the hardships of Australia as a new and wild land. And you feel the loves and fears of the pioneers who conquered.... A fabulous read."
+9690,2,Both A and B level people share stories,"At first I thought this book wouldnt be that great because there are a lot of names that I didnt recognize when looking at the index of people interviewed. However, that is because a lot of the names are the behind the scenes people who may not be 'names' unless you study the credits at the end of movies. There are some very interesting stories here. There is one good interview where a guy indicates how he screwed people all the way to the top of his field and later himself was screwed by someone he trusted. Payback. Karma. I hated that guy, but Im glad he told the truth. Each interviwed person is shown in a photograph. This is a well crafted book, done in a simple way and it works."
+9691,1,The positive reviews are from Roxio who want you to buy their product,"Believe the bad review, this product is trash. I wasted my money."
+9692,2,America's Kafka,"This collection of short stories by Flannery O'Connor helped establish her as one of America's greatest Southern writers. In her use of irony, dark humor, and the macabre, she reminds me of Kafka. Sadly, like the Czech master, she died way too young, leaving us to ponder the body of work missed had she lived even a decade longer.O' Connor's stories are peopled by very flawed characters. Characters who are victims of their harsh upbringing, close minded social environment, and blind to their own cruelties, inadequacies, and prejudices, until forced to change under circumstances of physical and emotional duress. The subtext in these stories involves sin and retribution, redemption and grace. O' Connor's fierce Catholicism is a covert, but ever present force in her writing, as she uses her wit to train a spotlight on the unpleasant underbelly of her world, then focuses it to a laser acuity to attack it's rampant hypocrisy."
+9693,1,Do not buy this!!!!!,This microwave broke within 6 weeks of owning it Because it was still new it was replaced 11 months later it dies again oh well too bad it is your problem I will NEVER buy another product made by this awful company
+9694,1,Don't waste your money....,"This book is dry and unenjoyable and has zero practical advice. It is poorly written and basically is the same concept repeated over and over. I don't think it will help make the wait easier, after reading this, you will probably be more desperate than ever to find your ""someone."" For a really good book on singleness, I would recommend ""Sacred Singleness"" by Leslie Ludy."
+9695,1,Not Satisfied,"For the specs of the Panasonic SL-SV550 CD Player souned pretty good, well CD player, plays MP3 formated CD's & AM/FM radio, however it hasnt lived up to what I expected. First time I ever droped the CD player it snaped open breaking the front latch & the back sensor, taped the back sensor down so now it plays CD's but the lid doesnt close so I keep it in a case or put something ontop of it while playing. The sound quality on the headphones isn't good at all, sound doesnt go loud & you can hear everything going on around you. Also some people said the radio reception was great, well it isnt great but it isnt terrible, but I'm leading more towards the bad reception side. One good thing about this CD player is all the features (CD, MP3, AM/FM Radio) and the somewhat long battery life. Also this CD player is very light. In the end, I wouldn't reccomend buying this CD player to anybody else, find something else."
+9696,2,"It is administrators guide, not implementors guide","This is good for beginners and administrators to get an understanding of the SSH. After reading it, you will know, how to set up and configure the SSH.However, it will not give you details of the SSH protocol for an implementor. I had to look into chapter 7 of ""VPNs Illustrated: Tunnels, VPNs, and IPsec by Jon C. Snader"" to get an overview of how the SSH protocol really works behind the doors. This chapter gave pictorial descriptions as opposed to textual descriptions in the SSH RFCs.In the next version, I would expect this book to contain a chapter giving implementation details of the SSH protocol."
+9697,2,"Good advice, but fuzzy presentation.","I may be a novice to the whole concept of tax lien investing, but Loftis does a great job in helping me to understand this particular investment vehicle. The read is easy, although at times a tad confusing as he tends to use some real estate terms that haven't been introduced until a few pages later.As a long time investor of the stock market, I am surprised that there is such a thing as almost guaranteed, safe returns of up to 18% in some jurisdictions. That is amazing in and of itself, but to realize that not everyone is ""on top of it"" is just unbelievable.You can tell from the writing style that Loftis is no short story writer, but for the purpose of explaining tax liens, it suits him just fine. I would highly recommend this read for anyone who wants an alternative to losing money. Four stars."
+9698,1,Not Satisfied,The problem is that I have actually had a Chi straightener before that was stolen so I decided to purchase this one online because of the price. It is not the same. It doesn't get nearly as hot as my original Chi. It just seems so cheaply made. It pulled my hair and did not work to straighten it. I was very unhappy and needless to say I had to purchase a new straightener.
+9699,1,This game is not good. Enough said.,Not the Playstation version. It took 2 hours to beat. The voice acting is lame. Get another game.That's all I really have to say about that.
+9700,1,Beautiful but inaccurate...,"As the librarian for the K-12 school on the Omaha Indian Reservation in Macy, NE, I was thrilled to have the opportunity to purchase a book for the children to reflect their culture. This volume is filled with beautiful photographs and drawings, is laid out sensibly, but is filled with inaccuracies and errors. People are identified incorrectly in photos, and basic understandings about the Sky People and the Earth People are completely reversed. A page by page review by tribal elders and scholars have found errors from beginning to end. Representatives of the tribe are sending a plea to the publisher for corrections. My hope is that they respond favorably and fix the errors to make this a book of value and accuracy."
+9701,2,love this,"I've had this for a few years and everything I've made from it has been delicious! My husband and I aren't vegetarians, we just prefer to limit our intake of meat to once a week or so. This is a useful resource to have in the kitchen."
+9702,2,Fascinating Book!,"This book, based on a real story, has turned out to be one of my favorite books to read. The author, Louis Lenski, made this book so descriptive, that I felt as if I was in the book myself! I thought it was fascinating that Indians stole a 12 year old girl. This biography is based on Mary Jeminson's life while being an Indian captive. Mary misses her family dearly but still carries on. Though she was useless and weak, she was a sister to the Seneca Village, animals, and plants. Many times she tried to run away back to the pale-faces. One time though, she had a choice to stay with the Indians or go back with the pale-faces. Read the book to find out which life she chooses."
+9703,1,Wheat and Chaff,"Some of what Larson says is quite accurate but most of it is ubsurd. For example: no D&D is not a route to Satanism (Chick was wrong) this ridiculous idea has been disproven so many times its not even funny any more. If you want good information on demonology and exorcism go to a catholic source. Deliverance ministers spend to much time chasing phantoms and have very little experience with true demons (to his credit Larson may have had some but I doubt he's seen worse then a very mild case). I would suggest Gabrielle Armoth, Ed Warren, and Malachi Martin as far better authorities."
+9704,1,Not up to the hype,"I got this as a gold box deal and for $20, it is ok. It does my cheeks fine. It doesn't do my neck at all and only does the chin mediocre. I mostly use it dry and had an even more difficult time using it wet. I've had to redo my neck with my Mach 3 frequently. It's good on light, non-course hair that isn't too long."
+9705,2,The Five Heartbeats - an exellent movie,"The Five Hearbeats is an excellent film that deserves 5 stars. Even though the characters are fictional, the film deals with a lot of truths in the industry."
+9706,1,Avoid this company!,"Don't waste your time and money on this company! I purchased this hard drive so that I could have a safe place to store a copy of the information on my computer. The drive worked fine for a couple of months, and then began to make loud clicking noises. In addition, it took my computer a long time (an hour or more) to recognize that the drive was attached, and backing up took more than 24 hours. I contacted Iomega on-line (you can't call them unless you pay $25 or have paid extra for a service plan) and had to engage in a slow and tedious chat session. All they could offer to do was to replace the drive. I did this, and now after 2 months this new (refurbished) drive is acting the same way. I contacted Iomega again and asked to return the drive for a credit so I could try a different product, and was told all they could do was to send me the identical drive with a 90 day warranty. I find this company and their products a huge disappointment."
+9707,2,REMODELING IS A LIFE ADVENTURE...,"One engineer told us that our choice of home would end our marriage. Another moved in... I bought Karn's book because it touched a nerve not satisfied by the congratulatory experience of Bob Villa or This Old house. For those of you old enough to remember the allusion, this is Mr. Blandings Builds His Dream House for the nineties."
+9708,1,WOW,"I just finished watching this movie and i must say, this was the worst movie i have ever seen in my whole life. I only wish i could rate it 0 stars to give it the justice it deserves. i threw up a little bit during this movie due to the extreme horribleness this movie exudes.HORRIBLE"
+9709,1,Danielle Steele If She Were Pat Robertson,"This book was interesting, much the way night time soap operas are interesting: the events are so fantastic that you want to see what happens even though you don't give a damn about the characters. Ms. Cooper's tale reads like a miniseries on some christian TV station: all the good guys get rewarded and all the bad guys get punished - just like in real life, right??! She frequently lets us in on Satan's thoughts, and I know she knows that Satan is laughing about the lost time I wasted on this book. I'd have given it one star, but I did read the whole thing, and even if the devil made me do it, I figure that's worth an extra star."
+9710,1,Buggy software,This program worked well two times and then totally locked up and I can't burn any DVD on a powerful 120Gig machine.Do not buy.
+9711,1,Too much of a Wannabe,"A friend of mine recommended this book to me since she knew how much I enjoy the Gossip Girl Series. Unfortunately, from page 1, it seems like this book is wanting to be too much like gossip girl. The only differences I could find between the two are that The A-List takes place in Calfornia instead of New York, the format isn't in the webpage style, and Gossip Girl is a much better read. I'm not saying that the book is completely horrible, but if you have read Gossip Girl before, your in for a bit of a disappointment. Those who haven't read GG series may find this book more enjoyable than I did."
+9712,2,It's a cutie.,Very nice Apatosaurus. Even though I still call it a Brontosaur. Melissa and Doug have made a lot of quality products that I own. Can't go wrong with Melissa and Doug.
+9713,1,"Well, he is a conservative.","The book was very predictable. If you are familiar with Rush Limbaugh, Michael Savage, Laura Ingram, Glenn Beck, and all the other Conservative talk show hosts, then the content of this book should come as no surprise. Sean is a proud biased rightwinger. If it's truth you are after, look elsewhere, if you are interested in cultivating hatred this is the book for you. In the world of Sean Hannity, those who hold differing opinions are labeled as ""Liberal"". While Mr Hannity is most likely a great husband, father, etc.., go elsewhere for political analysis. What do you expect from someone who makes his living demonizing Democrats and Liberals?"
+9714,2,Nice cups,"These are decent cups for the money. The insulation keeps drinks cool, and they don't spill when tipped over, although if they are on their side for a long time, sometimes a few drips escape. I will say, there is some dark discoloration on the inner seal inside the spout. I don't feel like it's mildew because we sanitize them in the dishwasher and air dry them properly. I've tried cleaning it out with a toothpick, but the discoloration actually seems to be in the tiny ring of adhesive that seals the rubber valve to the plastic spout. I don't feel like it will get into my kids' drinks. We are pretty happy with these cups."
+9715,2,Great discs but for Super Bowl III.....,"This set is a terrific dvd of the first 10 super bowls and the extra side feature of coaches & players. However, I gave it 4 stars because Warners Bros did not include the digitalized version the SB III I have the version in vhs (looks 10 times better in tape THAN dvd!!!). Maybe its due to re-issue rights. The replica super bowl ticket along is worth the price of the set."
+9716,2,A Fascinating Read,"This is a surprisingly quick read considering how much information is in this book. Fr Amorth discusses multiple cases and reveals the many different types of evil activity that the exorcist may encounter, and how to deal with each. I found myself wishing for a lot more detail and a list of reference books. What will strike the average reader most is that all the grimness you expect in exorcism accounts, such as The Exorcist film or Malachi Martin's work, Hostage to the Devil, is largely absent. He presents the reality that the power of Jesus Christ is more than sufficient to overcome diabolic activity and protect the exorcist as well. I recommend the book wholeheartedly!"
+9717,1,This is not up to Sony's Standards,"This cd plaer skips all the time even with esp2 on. it just totally sucks when it becomes continuous with the skipping. Skip skip skip skip skip, that's all it does, even with brand new cd's."
+9718,2,This is it!,"When it comes to the Barber Piano Concerto, the credit goes to the American pianist John Browning, who premiered the work with the Boston Symphony back in 1962 in New York. This rendition of the concerto featuring the Saint Louis Symphony Orchestra under the baton of Leonard Slatkin has totally blown me away. Not only is it exciting but it is so neatly put together and well-delivered that almost sounds like a live performance. Highly recommended to those who are new to this concerto or who simply love this piece. Voilà ! Salute to Samuel Barber."
+9719,2,son was thrilled,I looked and looked everywhere for this. I was thrilled to finally find it. My son was thrilled. He watches it all the time
+9720,2,Willy Loman in present day Maine,"The formula has been used many times before: good-hearted everyman is down on his luck due to the insensitivity of his environment and the petty passions of his contemporaries. That be said Empire Falls reinvents the genre and it reads like a fresh treatise on the American dream gone sour without proselyitizing or whitewashing. The small town atmosphere reflects nicely the claustrophopic bubble of societal expectations and the horror of having your friends, neighbors and enemies watch your personal failures as if it were the double feature at the cineplex. Russo touches on the middle aged craze for reinvention, the price thoughtless dreamers pay for their follies,teenage alienation and how absolute power corrupts absolutely especially if people are big fish in a small pond.Deserved the kudos it got as the last great novel of the millenium."
+9721,2,Paul Butterfield at his best. Rob Anderson #1 fan,If you like Paul Butterfield this is a must. Blues at its best. I got this record in 1971 have been trying to find it for years on CD. The harmonica on this CD is incredible. Just sit back and listen to the best blues you have ever heard.
+9722,2,All the basics plus some,"This book covers everything I needed to know, plus recipies for new items. Helpful hints, and instructions, for a variety of preserving methods."
+9723,1,Can't watch due to digital formatting issues,"I bought this with high expectations since I caught the first part on TV and became intrigued. I checked the TV show listings for the future and it was not available again by my service provider, so to finish on TV was no longer an option. I bought the DVD hoping to finish the flick, but the DVD that I received does not play on any of my DVD players (3 of them) - the screen shows a""formatting error"" message, as if it is not compatible with DVD players here in the United States. Who knows, maybe it will play in another country with other formats, but it is useless to me. Beware of this issue if you are in U.S.A. and you choose to buy - hopefully you get one you can actually watch, since it seemed like pretty fun movie from the part that I watched on TV..."
+9724,1,DO NOT USE FOR CATS!!!,"Berries, as with the majority of fruits and vegetables are TOXIC to cats. Just because berries are good for humans, does NOT mean they're good for cats. They're not!!! The cat's liver is very different from human livers. If you want to kill your cat (slowly & painfully), give them this stuff! It's pretty sad when cat product manufacturers would rather pander to public opinion (based on what pet product manufacturers have ""fed"" humans for years) that what is good for humans is good for our furry & furless loved ones. BTW, I had to give this review one star to get my review to take, though I actually give it zero stars!"
+9725,1,good writing but...,"nice writing style and generally clear examples.HOWEVER, there are no tables and no figures. For example, if you want a list of all the sub-atomic particles and their properties, you wont find it here."
+9726,1,YUCK,"This dispenser filter does not just remove the unpleasant tastes from tap water, it adds a taste reminiscent of Hygiea water, which I always hated growing up. If you can tell the difference between regular and diet soft drinks then you are a ""taster"" and tasters could find this trade-off unacceptable."
+9727,2,Very good book. But a lot of words to sift through.,"This book is fantastic in that the message truly and honestly changed my entire life. Thich Nhat Hanh asks ""why consumer anger?"" And he talks about animal farming etc. Well, I am officially vegetarian because of this book. I no longer watch movies with any violence in them. I no longer watch boxing matches. And it has made my life much better.People say ""restating the same old thing""... Well, hello, these lessons originated with Gautama Buddha. Thich Nhat Hanh is masterful in telling the same lesson from different angles so that you get a good view of the lesson.True, what was said in the book could possibly have been said with fewer words. But I'm willing to read the extra words for lessons that have changed my entire life.PS: I'm now in my 3rd year of being vegetarian. So the change is not a fad.UPDATE: I'm now in my 5th year as a vegetarian because of the deep lessons in this book.Namaste."
+9728,2,"Very impressive, you can find any, what you need to work!","This book covers many interesting topics, and does not restricts to simple installation procedure. ?P?As to me, I've find a lot of useful information on different packages, either for developing software, or text processing.?P?It's enough comprehensive work, with a lot of precise links to Internet cites. If you are interested in some topics, just enter the corrct address, and you are there..."
+9729,1,Very upseting purchase,the blender looks very attractive but hardly works. quite a bit of time even crushing a tomato. hard to believe
+9730,2,Economical,"I bought this coffeemaker to save money after deciding my K-Cup machines was costing us way too much money. What I like about this little guy is that it has an automatic brew, so that when I get up in the morning, the coffee is waiting for me. It's perfect for myself and if my husband wants a cup too. And, it takes up very little space.The only issue I have with it, is that the coffee does not come up real hot, unless it sits there for awhile, but I will just ususally pop it into the microwave for 10-15 seconds."
+9731,2,Great For Stairs,"I bought this little vacuum to replace a hand-held Eureka beater vacuum that finally died. The Sidewinder is very lightweight and easy to carry around. In fact, it's considerably smaller than I thought it would be but that's okay because I use it just about exclusively for all the carpeted stairs I have. It does a great job on the stairs.The reason I gave the Hoover Sidewinder only four stars is because of the lack of anywhere to wind the cord neatly."
+9732,2,It's A Wonderful Life,"This is an awesome and timeless classic for the entire family. Just when you think you're life isn't going so well, watch this movie and it reminds you of what really is important in life. I recommend it highly and it's a great addition to your movie library."
+9733,1,"Heat good, not too quiet","My main concern with this product was that it wasn't too noisy, because I'm a light sleeper. Unfortunately, in my opinion, it failed the test. It did seem to warm the room in a uniform manner, but had what I can only describe as a ""rumbling hum"" that was annoying. To be honest, it's not as loud as say, a window air conditioner, but I guess it was the type of sound that I found bothersome. I think Vornado has a pretty good reputation for their products, but for the price, I think this one came up short."
+9734,1,Poor Quality For Speakers with an Original Price Over 100,The speakers built into my monitor produce a clearer sound. These crackle and the quality is poor.
+9735,2,A favorite in our family!,These cashew snacks have a special flavor that we have not found in any other product. We keep coming back for more because they taste so good and are good for you too!
+9736,2,"I'm still trying to figure out what the ""hustle"" was.","With a title like ""The Big Hustle"", you'd expect the storyline to revolve around some kind of big con operation. I mean, I know this is just a softcore flick, so I wasn't expecting ""The Sting"", but the story is just about some guy who ticks off a local gangster and spends most of the film running from place to place to get away from him. Of course, everytime he stops off somewhere for a breather, we get a sex scene.There are nine sex scenes. Seven are boy/girl, one is boy/girl/girl, and one is girl solo. Only the threesome scene was really memorable. The rest of the scenes were mostly good, but a little on the short side. A couple of them were definitely too short. The women were all attractive and included Kim Dawson (two scenes) Regina Russell (one scene) and Lori Dawn Messuri (three scenes).This is a good release from Playboy, but not on par with the best that they've given us. But I still recommend it."
+9737,2,Cheap fun!,"I grew up on 2600 games, and am a bit biased toward gadgets like this. That said, this is a neat little product. The joystick, especially, is an almost perfect reproduction of the original, right down to the ridges along the sides of the stick. It's also made of very durable plastic and the cord has enough reach to meander comfortably around even the largest televisions. Overall, it feels like a quality product that will last for years.As for the games, they're a bit harder to recommend without certain qualifications. I certainly think they're fun, but older kids might be bored. These are simple time-wasters for an era when high scores mattered more than high polygon counts. Younger children would probably receive these games better. Also, a few of the games are sort of... duds. Pong without two paddles? Volleyball? Ah well. Centipede, Adventure, and Asteroids do a lot to shore up the deficiencies.All in all, a great product."
+9738,2,Good value,This product was a good value and works just fine. The parts fit properly and they were easy to replace.
+9739,2,Dakota is back!,"Dakota fans rejoice! They are back in a big way and keep getting better. The first track ""Hot Nights"" and ""Last Standing Man"" rock you from the start as the lyrics explain the band's perspective on uniting, writing and performing again. There are philosophical messages to be appreciated as the smoking guitars, keyboards and airtight harmonies expand your consciousness and move something deep inside of you. It gets better with every listen and is great for the sole driver on his commute home after a hard day's work. You'll love belting out Dakota tunes. The band's next two albums, Little Victories and Deep 6 (favorite) are both excellent."
+9740,2,Look at the author's entire work before making judgment!,"Here we go! I feel it necessary to explain to some of the reviewers out there that Animal-Wise is a companion book to Animal Speak, which otherwise expands upon the ideas of the other book and adds some lesser known animal spirits into the mix. Though, Animal Speak is clearly the most popular book for the obvious reason that it discusses animals which are more commonly manifested in shamanic journey, Animal Wise does have value which is worth exploring. For instance, if you are looking for a more complete understanding of Andrew's ideas and want to know about some of nature's more unusual and often misunderstood animals then this book will be helpful. At least it will be an added resource to give your library a more complete and well-rounded approach."
+9741,2,Roux temporary color,"Recently, the hair along my hair line has been turning white 2 weeks after having it colored. Out of desperation, I tried the Roux dark brown which was recommended by my stylist. I'm very pleased with it and it stays in until the next washing. Like other reviewers have said, it has a slight odor but it lingers only a short time after being applied. It is a bit inconvenient to have to keep wetting the stick but it's necessary in order to apply the color. Once the color is on my hair I take a q-tip and rub it in some more so it's not caked on. The product is effective in covering much of the white until the next coloring."
+9742,2,"Not just another ""chick flick""","This is the standard to which all modern ""romantic-comedies"" should be held. This is a truly funny and romantic movie, without being too sentimental or sappy. Billy Crystal and Meg Ryan have wonderful chemistry, the writing and acting is sharp, and most of all--this movie is laugh-out-loud FUNNY. Too often, movies of this genre are way to weepy and cute to interest most men (and a lot of women). This movie keeps the tone light and realistic, and the humor is sarcastic and clever, so that everyone should enjoy this wonderful story. And yes, the diner scene is a classic...I laugh at the woman's line at the end of the scene every time."
+9743,1,I want my time spent reading back...,"I am new to the world of Stephen King, and I became disenchanted by King with this book. The most active character in the story is the Buick (*NOTE* There are humans in the story.) This should give one an idea regarding kind of character development or lack therefrom this story contains. The book lacks any scarefactor, and the author really misses numerous chances to make up for the ""kiddish"" nature of the novel. Incidences are too silly to be taken seriously. Other than that, there isn't much to say about the book because little happens in the novel. To avoid senseless mental anguish, I'd suggest doing yourself a favor by pressing ALT+Left_Arrow_Key till you get back to the main Amazon.com page and hunting for a different book."
+9744,2,SIMPLY THE BEST!!,"I LOVE this DVD! What a great workout! I feel amazing afterwards. You do work up a sweat, so be prepared."
+9745,1,Great...if you've got huge ears!,"The design of these earphones does really limit outside noise, and the quality of the speakers is fine, but be aware that the main body of these is quite large and the foam piece big as well. These do not hide inside the ear inconspicuously, but rather stick out mostly outside the ear cavity. This review and comment is coming from someone with probably larger than everage ears, and like me you will probably find them very uncomfortable to wear, unless of course you enjoy the feeling of your entire ear canal packed full of foam rubber!... just be aware. Cheers."
+9746,2,great addition to any kitchen,"they came swiftly and in great condition, i know i will get a lot of great use out of them."
+9747,1,Returning this steamer,"I was excited to receive this steamer after reading the reviews on amazon..but am Highly disappointed and am returning this product after really having high hopes for this product.The steamer DOES heat up quickly just after a few seconds which i thought was great...but each time i've tried to use this steamer, which is a handful of times now..actual Steam only comes out for about 10-15 minutes.I untangle the hose..keep it upright..don't overfill with water and keep it filled at the correct level suggested and it just doesn't give me more steam then the 10-15 minutes worth.. and Ugh..i really was hoping this steamer would work well for me..and maybe i received a dud..but overall i dont know, so am going to return it and try another steamer altogether."
+9748,1,The Expendables,"Although I purchased this DVD as used, it was indicated to be in ""excellent"" condition. It was not. My husband watched most of the movie and then the screen went blank. I've never had this happen before when purchasing a used DVD. Needless to say, I will not be purchasing used DVD's from this vendor again through Amazon. They should not be endorsed through Amazon either."
+9749,1,B Style Movie,"If you enjoy the ""B"" style movies, you may enjoy this film but if your are an ""A"" Lister then you will hate this film."
+9750,1,Matthew temkin,"For authors who claim to teach simple self defense their methods are rather complicated and some of the preachings are overly esoteric. Some good info here, but how many techniques are really needed ( or can be made reflextive) for pratical self defense?"
+9751,1,NO MORE OLD SONGS!!,"One star, for the new songs this cd contains. but honestly, stop releasing the same songs over and over and over again."
+9752,1,Ya Never Know,"I didn't think the cd was that great but a few days after I bought it I was watching Conan O'Brien and heard something funny. Ben Affleck mentioned in the interview that he was living with Kevin Smith while they were making the movie Chasing Amy. He said Kevin was dating one of the actresses from the movie and that _this_ was the music Kevin would listen to when he was getting ""friendly"" with her.Now whenever I hear this soundtrack I can't get the picture of ""Silent Bob"" doing the deed out of my head...and hopefully now neither can you. :P"
+9753,2,Emotional Blackmail,This book is very good with clients that are held captive by their emotions and others use and abuse them. It is an easy read and a lot of client understand the language. Would recommend for professional or others.
+9754,2,Great Cleaning Kit...Powerful Pellets,"I especially like the pellets because they penetrate better than any other pellet I have tried.I have been using Crosman SSP,Destroyer,Gamo Hollow Point and Gamo Red Fire.I just wish they gave more of the cleaning pellets with the kit.I would recommend this product to anyone."
+9755,2,Enjoyed this book,"A heartwarming christian book that i enjoyed. You will as well, if you are looking for a book about love in the 1800's."
+9756,1,These break in less than one year!,"I actually was stupid enough to buy this machine TWICE. After the first one stopped sucking (only one year old) I wandered into Sears, looked at all the models, and concluded this one was the easiest to use again. Then, THAT one broke after being used about six times. Now, I am going to try the Hoover after reading the Amazon reviews. Wish me luck :)"
+9757,2,Great for a little fan of Elmo!,"My daughter (19 months) LOVES Elmo...this is just another cute one for her. She LOVES to make Elmo drink and runs to find his potty when he tells her he needs to go! My daughter is not potty trained yet, but I do believe this toy is helping her understand a little about going to the potty! I would recommend for any child who just loves Elmo!"
+9758,1,It is not well documented,"I didn't like the documentary. It has some mistakes in the information. It should have options in the menu, with subtitles or more language options."
+9759,2,"Good price, no wetness strip","Don't get confused here, this isn't a swaddler style diaper. There is NO, I repeat... NO wetness strip. This diaper came up when we searched for swaddler and its our mistake for not reading closer. The diaper is a bit small in size compared to the swaddler ones and the lack of wetness strip makes it an easy 2nd place choice to the same size Pamper Swaddler."
+9760,2,"Can't Beat the Price, Can't Beat the Fun","An activity center for only $6.99? I always count on Sassy to produce fun, cool-looking, reasonably-priced toys for my seven-month-old son. But even for Sassy, this toy is a steal. Even better, unlike his other activity center which cost four times as much, my baby actually enjoys all four of the activities on the toy. There's a cylinder with colorfall balls that roll around, a squeaky smiley face, a bell and clapper that ding, and best of all, a gearshift which makes a very satisfying ""scrunch scrunch"" sound. Even though my son is still fairly uncoordinated, he can make most of the activities work just by swiping at them (he still needs some help with the squeaky smiley face). One note of caution -- this is definitely not a highchair toy. This toy packs a whollop when it's dropped (I know, the hardwood floor in my kitchen now has a big choink gouged in it). As long as you confine this toy to the floor, you and your baby are in for a lot of fun."
+9761,2,Music for early morning Yoga,"'Dhyana' means 'meditation' in Sanskrit. As the name suggests, Dhyana at Daybreak creates a meditative environment, especially in the early morning. Raga Gunkali (first track) is a sublime melody which helps the mind to go inward. The next raga, Basant Mukhari is another morning melody which continues the introspective feeling created by Gunkali. Finally, there is a short rendition of Bhairavi which reinforces the feeling of surrendering to the supreme spirit and gives a fitting conclusion.Tabla rendered by Shafat Ahmad Khan has excellent tonal quality and it enhances the sublime quality of the music. This album is especially suited for people who prefer to perform early morning Yoga with music in the background.It is difficult to bring out the effect of music in words, especially for sublime albums like this. One has to listen to the music to have the real experience.HPR"
+9762,1,not the best way to learn mandoin,The DVD arrived fine and all. but the pictur quality was low and it was very difficult to navigate. I addition you have to look around for practice pages and then you have to print them out to use then and the print quality was poor. For about the same price I got a Mel Bay book through my local shop and it came with a far superior DVD. Since it is a book I don't have to print anything.
+9763,1,Very thin material,"One star for Levi's 550's, five stars for Amazon customer service!I recently ordered two pairs of 550's from Amazon, expecting the same quality they've always had. Eh, not so much. First thing I noticed when I took them out was the thin material. They don't feel like jeans, more like Dockers chinos. Also I noticed the stitching wasn't particularly tight. I returned both pairs for full refund (thanks Amazon!)."
+9764,2,Small but powerful,This is a very powerful little fan. I use it on low to cool down a whole room. It really circulates and cools the air. It is very light and easy to move. The base is very stable. The fan tilts and stays put in whatever position you want it. It is noisy like most fans. A good value.
+9765,1,Junk,"If you're into innovative rap and want something else besides a few guys sitting in their bedroom with a drum machine, then don't buy this album. If you're like me and are into tight beats and wicked hooks like the kind Warren G and Dr. Dre serve up, check out Gospel Gangstaz instead. These guys are wannabees with sloppy ryhmes. OGG's is tight."
+9766,1,Money Pit,"I'll know to completely disregard Golden Globe nominations from here on out. What was I thinking? Depp is only good when playing a freak of some sort and all I can do when Jolie is on the screen is stare at her mutant lips which take up 55% of the view.Terrible script and direction and all the rest. No imagination wasted on this creation. ""Let's hire big draws, excrete some stupid screenplay, and make a lot of dough off the Sheeple""."
+9767,1,This Totally SucKz,"I am a small John Mayers fan myself but this cd was total garbage. I mean, in this cd Mayer's voice is so wimpy and the guitar playing was anything but talented. Then there were the lyrics. I mean c'mon can't you and your productin company think of something more creative. If I was able to I would probably give this cd 0 stars. If you ever thought of buying this cd, don't waste your money on it."

+9769,1,Out the door with toilet paper rolls and sunglasses.,"This product really doesn't work for me. Sudafed works, but makes me really jittery-- and overtime, I had to take more pills at a time to make my nose stop clogging. I have been taking claritin for 2 weeks now. I've heard you have to let it build up in your system before your allergies start. But seriously... if it has to ""build up"" ... could that really be healthy? 2 weeks and nothing. If anything, as I've moved 2 weeks farther into my allergy season... I've gotten worse. Itchy, watery eyes... runny nose, congestion, sneezing..... The people at my job think I'm coming from a funeral!Tylenol Severe Allergy works well for me... but you're not supposed to exceed 8 in a day. You take 2 every 4 hours. That's 16/24 hours of coverage. My allergies are too bad to go without that 8 hours of relief. Maybe I need a mask....."
+9770,2,depeche mode 101,101 is really good album for people just starting to get into Depeche Mode. The first disc is live and really captures the sound that Depeche Mode has as a live band. The second disc is a greatest hits collection of the material from the 80s so it gives some of their history.
+9771,2,A dying man's last words,"If you are 'paying attention' and you feel that all you have lived your life fighting for is under attack you will enjoy KV's articulate expression of your observations. If you have been a KV fan and want to see directly into his mind without the abstract expression of his youth, this is your book. I felt sad as I read the book because it was quite clear he knew he was dying. I enjoyed this book because clearly he was a man who had lived his life by his principles. If you are mid aged and have been through a nasty divoce and want to take a beautiful KV trip into abstraction, try Blue Beard, my favorite."
+9772,1,An interesting subject drowned in a sea of banality.,"One of my friends gave me this book as a late Christmas' present. I like reading about courtesans ever since I enjoyed reading ""Nana"" by Emile Zola. The subject is a meaty one, filled with lots of whimsy and cheekiness. This writer, however, managed to deflate every ounce of excitement I had for this book. Her writing style is best described as a mix of stream-of-consciousness and ultra-flowery wording. I managed to hang on for three chapters before I ended up donating this book to a local library. A total snooze on a very interesting subject. I would give it no stars if it was possible."
+9773,2,What a doll!,"I have no idea if this book is any good or not, but I do know that Ms. Hayes is very knowledgeable on this subject and is also one of the nicest individuals on the planet. Buy her book!"

+9776,1,Non-Stick Surface Peeled. Calphalon refused to honor warranty.,"I've been very happy with Calphalon products in the past. This one has been a disappointment. After about a year, the non-stick surface started to show signs of wearing off and peeling. At about the 2 year mark, it became so bad, that there was bare metal showing (no nonstick surface) on about 25% of the pan. I decided to return the pan for an exchange, as covered by the Calaphalon warranty. The robust warranty is one of the reasons I have always justified spending so much money on the Calaphalon pans. Well, they sent the pan back to me, claiming that it is not covered under the warranty, because if the non-stick surface was peeling off, it was my fault for putting the pan on too high of heat. I'm sure others have had better responses. This one has turned me from a Calaphalon gung-ho fan, to a very skeptical user. I would not recommend Calphalon non-stick due to this experience."
+9777,2,mesmerizing marlene,"If anyone else but Marlene Dietrich had played the lead in this film, the film would have been awful! Dietrich triumphs in a role no-one would have predicted. mysterious, mesmerizing, seductive, funny, and finally moving as the loyal gypsy(!) Lyddia, Dietrich makes you overlook the films flaws. At times the film drags by, some supporting players seem to have cotton in their mouths as they speak, and some of the dialogue is inane. Through it all, Dietrich is the soul of this movie, holding it all together in spite of the flaws, to make the whole thing work. Worth watching as a romantic piece of Hollywood escapism, and for seeing Dietrich as the fine actress she is."
+9778,2,great product,We own 3 of this product. The 4th went to Toys for tots xmas donation.This product has lasted through 5 grandchildren. They are still in great shapemy youngest grandson age 3 is just starting to pay with this product.I strongly advise to be used for 3 years and up. My 6 year old gradddaughter is still playing with these toys.All I can say is BUY THEM. You cannot go wrong.
+9779,2,This book is thorough but poorly written.,"It is ironic that an account of the Steely Dan phenomenon is documented by someone whose writing skills are negligable. Becker and Fagen, two contemporary literary masters by most standards, would find it strangely fitting, I suppose. Sweet's saving grace is his penchant for detail. His tome has the stories for which every avid Dan fan hungers. Recording sessions, writing sessions, band reformulations, personal melodramas, etc. These elements make it enjoyable reading, especially when accompanied by revisitations to the legendary recordings. Listening to the CD's while making one's chronological journey through this book, is distictly thrilling, as well as eye(ear)-opening. The lack of an index and of footnotes limits this volume's usefulness as a reference source however. It would be nice to see a similar effort made by a writer who posesses a similar creative energy, quirkiness and skill to that of Becker and Fagen themselves."
+9780,1,Please help us,"This album is a perfect example of exactly what is wrong with the music industry these days. Just when I thought music could not get any more tired and derivative, this album comes along to reach new heights of mediocrity. Everything here has been done so many times by so many other bands. The music, the lyrics, the attitude (or lack thereof) - all so weak. The truly sad part is that I have no doubt that this band will be huge. Yet another in a long line of ""LCD"" (Lowest Common Denominator)bands that rule the airwaves these days. Please help us."
+9781,1,"Slow as Heck, Heats Up Like an Oven, Sleeps Like a Baby","I had this drive from a long time ago.As the title said, it was extremely slow, and got hot super quick (there are vents on the ""foot"" but it didn't help much, and if you accidentally cover the vents, you're screwed), and would go to sleep and never wake up. I had to unplug and replug the USB chord again to get it to wake up.Luckily, current drives have evolved a lot better off.If you ever see one of these around, buy it for a buck to frame up on the ""Wall of Shame."""
+9782,2,Very nice cable. Worth the money.,Arrived today actually 1 day earlier then I thought. I immediately hooked it up and the picture was great. Using s-video before on my PS2 it was exactly what I expected. Now im going to purchase the fiber-optic cable for my surround sound system. The price is also better then what I expected compared to some of the other monster cables.
+9783,2,Dunham,Jeff Dunham is hilarious! I purchased 2 DVD sets to give as gifts. I ended up keeping one! It was cheaper to buy from amazon than to buy them in stores! Well worth the price at almost any cost! You should definately buy this item!
+9784,2,The Miracle of Life,"I love this National Geographic special! I have cable so I got to see it for free and I watched it over and over. Before watching this I wasn't sure when I was ever going to be ready to be a mommy. Now, I look forward to sharing this miracle with my husband :)Anyways, I digress, the film is great. It's amazing how they have these images that look like it's from within the womb. In fact, sometimes it really is, at least the special on multiple births is."

+9786,2,"awesome, kind, sensible book","This book is full of valuable information for anyone thinking about getting a dog (whether from a shelter or any other source) as well as anyone in the animal welfare and sheltering field. Not only is it full of great information from someone who clearly knows what she's talking about, it's funny and interesting to read - I couldn't put it down!"
+9787,2,So simple but so awesome,"I bought this toy for our new adopted kitten (10 weeks old when we got him). I didn't know if he would play with it or be scared of it, but he took to it right away, batting at the ball and chasing it around the track. It took him about a week to figure out that he could scratch on it, but once he did, he scratches on it for a while every day.The best thing that we figured out is to make a small tent out of cardboard (just fold a piece in half) and cover the ball with the tent. Our kitten goes crazy every single time we do it, he can't stand when the ball is ""hiding"" under the cardboard.I'm giving this toy 4 stars instead of 5 because it slides like crazy around our hardwood laminate floors. We put a small kitchen towel under it, and that reduces the sliding somewhat. They should really provide rubber feet or some other grippy surface to stick on the bottom for those of us who need to use it on non-carpeted surfaces."
+9788,2,MARSHALL DILLON - STILL A GOOD EXAMPLE,I received this series in the mail in good condition and promptly. I have always enjoyed Gunsmoke. One that will always be one of my favorites. Thank you.
+9789,2,Album of the Year,"This album is the best album of the year in gospel and secular music. It is a wonderful blend of choirs and hip-hop and r&b. I love gospel music for the messsage, but sometimes I just want to dance. This album allows me to do both. It is amazing and I can't wait to see them in concert."
+9790,1,Not worthy of One Star. If the Academy gave out Oscars for,"Worst movie, worst acting, and worst script, this would win hands down. When it comes to lame, witless and downright stupid movies, Ben Stiller is on quite a roll. If you are not a teenaged boy, I recommend staying away from this one.Dodgeball fancies itself as a parody of the typical sports movie, don't fall for it. The non-stop toilet humor is lame and predictable and it's a wonder that this movie can garner such rave reviews from so many people.In my humble opinion, if you have an IQ greater than 12, don't bother with Dodgeball. Personally, I'd sooner watch a marathon of Paulie Shore and Carrot Top movies before sitting thru Dodgeball again, and that my friends, is saying something."
+9791,2,"Great story, tough point to prove...","Krakauer does a great job of telling the story of Mr. McCandless and relating to similar, past events - including those of his own life. His main goal, it appears, is to tell the story in the context of man's longing for adventure and his desire to interact with nature. Krakauer's biggest challenge, however, is more along the lines of proving McCandless was not an absolute fool - entering Alaska arrogant and unprepared. Regardless, Krakauer is a great writer and this is a fine book. Another great example of non-fiction as literature."
+9792,2,What an awesome series!!!!,"White concludes an awesome trilogy (which was also released all in the same year). Ted Dekker has quickly become my favorite Christian fiction writer. If you haven't read ""Three,"" then you are missing out on a page turner of major proportion. As for White, I thought the book took a couple of liberties as far as the plot went, but given the fanciful and complex nature of the series, it is forgiven. White will keep you captivated as you wonder how Thomas of Hunter will be able to save the day...in two realities. I really enjoyed the book, but there were a couple of issues that didn't get addressed which left me wanting just a bit more. However, with that said, I was not disappointed in the book; just hungry for a little more. And what was that all about with the Roush at the end of the book?"
+9793,2,comedy of three misfit roommates,"This was an 80s series that centered around an american sharing a flat with two other roommates from the UK. Matthew (the vain macho man who's afraid to leave the apartment), Martin (the nerdy guy) and Mandy (the beautiful blonde who attracts losers) live together in this first of three series total. There are six episodes in all:Big WednesdayWorking GirlsThe Great EscapeBad TimingMatthew - A Case For TreatmentFameMatthew is the brash american who thinks too highly of himself. Martin is the wimpy guy who always gets picked on, especially by Matthew. Mandy is the good looking blonde with great ambitions but with little to back it up. Both men sniff at her heels but never get anywhere. A very funny series that is different from american comedies. Some episodes are funnier then others but all are amusing."
+9794,2,I love this book!,"As the mother of a 3-year old adopted from China, I've bought quite a few adoption-related children's books, and I like many of them. But this one I love! Although it's not directly tied to Chinese adoptions, the story is similar to ours (we're a 2-parent family; we adopted a baby; we traveled to get her). The illustrations are lovely and the story captures the happy anticipation we felt as we waited for our child. Most importantly, the author gave me words to use in explaining my daughter's birth to her: ""You grew like a flower in another lady's tummy until you were born. The lady couldn't take care of you so Mommy and Daddy came to adopt you and bring you home."" I just love those 2 sentences and feel grateful to have them. And my daughter asks me to read this book just about every day!"
+9795,2,A page tirner but falls flat at the end.,I liked this book and read it in a few days. Picoclt I think was trying to push the envelope of the definition of rape. This 14 year old girl says she was raped at a party by a boy that had broken up with her. She is stripped of any sympathy as a character as the story progreses. The story also centers around her fathers rage and the destruction of her family that results. I think Picolt was trying to show that if you say no to sex it's rape no matter what you did before hand. The ending just fell a little flat. But it was a very good read.
+9796,1,worthless,"I ordered 2 of these, one doesn't work at all. The other one has an A button that sometimes acts a B button."
+9797,1,Not as described,"I was very disappointed with this purchase. I ordered three movies and the other two were fine, however, this dvd would not play in my region. I was advised that it was because I purchased a dvd that would not playback on DVD players in the United States. I don't understand why someone would think that I would want such a DVD when the other two that I purchased would playback in the U.S. Then when I had to return the item, I was advised that I would have to pay for the shipping to return it. RIDICULOUS! IF YOU ARE GOING TO SELL DVD'S that don't playback in the U.S. THEN LABEL THEM IN BOLD!!! THIS DVD WILL NOT PLAYBACK ON U.S. DEVICES."

+9800,1,Sadder than the British Doo Wop Reunion on PBS...,"If you're looking for the original radio cuts, these definitely aren't it. Look elsewhere. However, if you would delight in hearing half the original members of Gary Puckett and the Union Gap wheeze their way through ""Young Girl"" (done 30 years later in a much lower key), then by all means buy this album."
+9801,1,You can do better,"I have read through the book as well as other reviews and can only offer some simple advice...choose carefully. In the early days, the name ""Bible"" was used by the Waite Group for their C & C++ Bibles. Those basic commands in the C++ version are still good today. The book published the command, the structure, and the example usage code in full. ""This"" book is organized into tips. It takes awhile to find the right tip and its corresponding page. This book contains many, many pages of text providing extremely few examples shown in the context of completed code (unlike Waite Group). There are references to older Windows' calls yet commands related to Winsock/WinAPI aren't present. The .NET environment is described in almost exclusively C#. I suggest you try to visually peruse the book before buying and not to choose solely on the listing of the table of contents."
+9802,2,Great Cover,"I got this product a week or two ago and it is great. The elastic band that secures the bottom of the cover feels very sturdy and well-made. The material is lightweight and breathable, but has done a great job of repelling water on some rainy days we have had. According to other reviewers, one can expect to get a couple years out of this cover. But I am very impressed with the quality and value of this cover after two weeks. I would definitely buy it again.By the way, I drive a 2011 Honda PCX and the large-sized cover fits like a glove."

Weather is to be cooler (about 30 deg F in the mornings) so we'll see how it works. It has plenty of space, very soft inside, feels warm in the ""inside house"" test. It completely filled the stuff sack it came in - so my only concern is how to get it back in there! I'll find out this evening... It is large even in the stuff sack, yet expectedly so as to it's intended size... First impressions - very nice! I gave it 4 stars as I haven't used it yet...."
+9805,1,Ok video.,This video is mostly tractors; few trucks were featured. Music was so-so and production was fairly amateur.
+9806,2,MY FAVROITE MOVIE!,This is my favorite movie so I figured Id register and give it 5 stars. Being a fan of Horror(B-Movies) I am sure helped. Being a Columbia picture probably helped this flick don't kid yourself. This wasnt as low-budget flick as one might aspect. The actors are all A -quality and the special effects are done well. And Columbia doesnt hire garbadge. Either way you get the best flick for the money. The DVD is a must with all the extras. SOUND is INCREDIBLE even has Audio Commentary with Seth Green. Widescreen and Full Screen features along with another ending makes this a MUST for any small collection. This is my FAVORITE MOVIE.
+9807,2,Awesome!!,"I pre-ordered this DVD and waited not so patiently for it to arrive. I watched it three times in two days and I love it! I know it's the beginning of the story and the next half will come on July 15, 2011, but this was a great beginning. The realization has come to Harry that everyone around him is in danger and he wants to protect them. But he also knows he can't do it alone. He has people that want to help and need to help if he is going to succeed. I laughed a little and I cried. Just a good movie. I can't wait for HP7.2 in July, but I don't really want it to end, either!"
+9808,1,Difficult and confusing,"I had such a dreadful, struggling experience reading this book. I couldn't understand a word of it except what the back of the book said. When the author went off on his poetical tangent, I was just lost. I couldn't see the symbolism, although I knew it was there. Don't get me wrong, Mr. Makine is a very talented and gifted writer, but I think only those who read poetry and novels that you have to concentrate on would enjoy this one."
+9809,1,"Very Hot Oven, Had to Return It","The Black & Decker CTO6301 is feature rich. It looks nice. My wife who is blind could operate it. Pretty impressive. EXCEPT IT IS TOO HOT ON THE OUTSIDE!. As other reviewers have said it takes a long time to toast, I guess because it is so large. It is actualy scary to operate, even for a few minutes. I think there is more heat on the outside than the inside. I cannot imagine what baking would be like in it.Anyway we are sending it back. We need to find one with better insulation and no doubt a little smaller so it is a practical toaster. Nice try B&D; but no cigar."
+9810,2,Nesco FD-75PR 700-Watt Food Dehydrator,I have not used this product yet but I am pretty sure it will work just as great as how the others buyer rated this item.
+9811,1,Why does this company sell junk?,It has been so frustrating to have containers like this that crack along the bottom and loose integrity after only a few uses. Which is better than the company that sells products like these: it doesn't have integrity to begin with.
+9812,2,Great Basic Start!,This book is a great start to a person interested in Music Therapy. The outlines of the treatment were a great help. The only thing I wish were included were certian techniques they used.
+9813,2,Work well except that it is a little loud,"It is very light and heats things up quickly and efficiently. Since it does not get hot at the bottom, you can leave it on any table while cooking. I use it to make Chinese Hot Pot dishes and it is perfect for that. The cooling fan is a little loud. If you plan to use it for a quiet dinner, then the noise may be noticeable. However for typical pot hot dinner, the guests are likely to be very loud so no one would notice it."
+9814,1,Useless Junk,"These guys sound like they lost there Minds. Why listen to satanic Lies? Jesus is the Real Deal. satan offers nothing but Garbled Lies. Jesus Died even for Glen Benton, even though He sings such Stupid Nonsense. Hopefully this Foolish Group with there insane Lyrics will wake up B4 it is to late.Don't Buy any of this useless Junk. satan will Bow B4 Jesus one day, just like all of us will. Obey Jesus New Covenant Gospel, and 4get this satanic Stupidity.it deserves no Stars, but had to put 1 unfortunately."
+9815,1,"Defective snaps, had to return....","Ordered one to see how I would like it but returned it. The lid has four snaps, one on each corner. Of the four, one was detached from the fabric, and another was so tight I could not snap the corner together. I did, however, order and like very much the Rubbermaid three-handle storage chest and the 2-pack nesting bins. I just don't like the design of the window boxes with the snap corners."
+9816,1,500 Watts really?,"Overall a decent ""beginner"" unit, however don't leave your unit on all the time like I used to. I had to replace one of the fans inside because it started making noise after about a year of ""normal"" use. I don't like how the volume goes off completely when adjusting it quickly and the remote control button layout is absolutely horrible. It is loud for the size of the components however I have heard way better and louder units that are under 500 watts. Doesn't have 6 speaker stereo without the 5.1 like other similar systems of its time. The system is also really slow to load cds, mp3 cds and dvds and it is also too slow to change between tv/aux/dvd/radio modes. Would I recommend this unit to a friend? NO. Would I ever buy another Philips dvd player or home theater system? Very Doubtful. Would I ever buy another Philips product at all? Only with great hesitation and after researching and testing the product before buying it."
+9817,1,This one is not a keeper,"I wont go on and on about what the plots were in this book. To keep this short and simple, this book was only mildly entertaining. And I wouldn't even call it a romance. There wasn't even any ""spark"" between Maggie and Sebastian for me. By the time they did declare their love for each other I thought ""you got to be kidding!"" It was THAT unbelievable.Save your money and if you really want to read this book, get it used or borrow it from the library."
+9818,1,Made for TV movie,If you like Lifetime movies on TV this is your cup of tea. Ok plot and acting but belongs on TV not as movie.
+9819,2,ALERT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!,This little radio is great and loud!!!!! I am not worried about missing an emergency annoucement now. In fact there is a winter storm warning now. I look forward to feeling safe and knowing in advance when to take shelter. Great product Midland and great delivery Amazon!!!!!!!2/28/2007This is an updated rating. I thought my nice new radio didn't work as we had a snow storm and no alerts. I called Midland and they said to check with the NWS to see if alerts had been issued. I called the NWS and to my surprise no alerts had been issued. I thought something was wrong with my radio but there was nothing wrong with it. I highly recommend this product. I love it!!!!! Great price and snazzy looking gadget. This is my favorite new gadget. I am waiting for a weather alert. I know that may sound sick but I want to hear how loud the warning is LOL!!!
+9820,1,ZERO STARS please!,"I'm sorry to say, but this is one of the worst CD's I have to date: ZERO stars! . Bad lyrics, badly sung. I think Jewel is - like Britney Spears - a childish probably tone deaf teen. Music for the brain dead and non-critics. Produced by scrupulus child exploiters and non-musical editors. That goes to say that luckily for Jewel these kind of people do exist. Today everything sells, if pushed hard enough by marketing or dj-pluggers. Sorry Jewel... I gave your Cd to the salvation army. (it was an gift anyway)"
+9821,1,Deer in the headlights eyes,"I have owned a fake owl in the past that worked much better than this one. The original Owl I had would cause other birds to get mad, and sit way up high in trees and sqwalk at it. This one they land on it and poop on it. I think there is something about the eyes that don't look real."

+9824,2,Nice so far,"Had an exercise bike about ten years ago and did not like it. The technology has improved since those days so I bought the Schwinn based on the good review in Consumer Reports. Assembly was fairly easy although there are some errors in the booklet as described by others. After assembly there was an annoying knocking noise in the left pedal. Based on another review, I took off the pedal and reattached it. This took care of the noise for about ten minutes but it came back. Went through this several times; finally noticed that the threads looked dry so lubricated and attached the pedal agaain. No knock now for the past week. Fingers crossed...The ride is smooth and quiet (now). Seat very comfortable. A pleasure to use.Would have given it five stars if certain the knock would not return."
+9825,1,worst vacuum ever,"I own the fantom falcon for 6 months and the belt has gone bad on the power head. I placed an order for another belt and the fantom company told me it was on back order and it would take 6 to 8 weeks to get a new one sent to me. ""WOW"" no vacuum for that long, I have wall to wall carpet with a persain cat. I also don't like the way the hepa filter is on the basket it sits right in the middle of where you collect the dirt and that collects most of the cat hair and dirt> I always had to use a air compressor to blow out the dirt every time I used It. Please anyone looking to buy this vacuum that doesn't have a air compressor and has wall to wall carpet better think again."
+9826,2,Excellent Christmas Albumn!,Children singing Christmas songs through the entire albumn creates a very festive mood. Great to have in the line-up.
+9827,2,Finally got my hands on a copy,"SPOILER ALERTS!The movie ""Original Sin"" is one of my favorites so when I saw it was based on a book I had to read it. It took me a long time to find a copy, since it is out of print and used copies are $40 and above. I discovered it in a collection of his other novels and stories at the library and picked it up immediately. The book was satisfying in every sense, well, almost every sense. I'm so used to the raunchy version that is the movie so I was a little disappointed (it was written in 1947 so that was not heard of back then, to have such sex scenes). Also, I was saddened to read that he dies at the end and that there is no such happy ending. But, hey, what can you do. Its still a good read."
+9828,2,A personal soul searching,"Reading Confessions by St. Augustine was a richly rewarding experience. The man examined his conscience, soul and thinking processes with as complete honesty as I have ever encountered in my lifetime. Some of the questions he posed and answered have never entered my mind; other areas he examined and anlyzed were areas of concern to me. In my areas of questioning, St. Augustine provided guidance/direction and most times answers that satisfied my quest for ""understanding"". Altogether ""Confessions"" is a book that I shall read (at leisure) many more times.Rose MillerJackson, MI"
+9829,1,If you're athletic or fit---won't work for you!,"Consistently inaccurate with body fat measurements. The device is sensitive to electrical currents so I made sure not to be around the microwave, etc. But even doing that, I'd still get wacky numbers. Taken a few seconds apart from different locations in my room, I'd get body fat measurements 3-4 percentages off from each other.I'm a very fit and healthy individual. I bought this to keep an eye on my stats. I know how to weigh myself (not after meals, showers, etc.). I also understand that calipers are more accurate, but this scale shouldn't be SO far off--especially for $60+. Booo."
+9830,1,Shun Ken Onion Chips,"I bought this knife about 2 years ago. I really love the look, but it was a bit big for me.You have to use the holder that comes with it as it doesn't fit in a knife block.Anyway, last week I was washing it by hand as I always do, and noticed 2 circular chips out of the blade. I am not sure how this happened, as I have never used it for meat only vegetables.I did notice that it dulled rather fast, and I have used a knife sharpener on it.This was an expensive knife, which is called a Chefs Knife, I had no idea that it wasn't to be used on meat or bones. I would have never bought it had I known. I have never had a knife chip or break so this was a surprise.I was just looking for someplace that would sharpen and repair knives when I saw the reviews so thought I would add my 2cents."
+9831,2,Helped relieve lower back pain,"At about week 22 of my pregnancy with twins, I started getting severe lower back pains. My doctor recommended a pregnancy belt. After receiving it and wearing it a full day, my back pain was significantly reduced. Sometimes, even when wearing it, I still get pains, but more often than not, the belt really, really helps.It's pretty comfortable, but can be a little awkward to wear when going to the bathroom. When I'm at work, I wear it under clothes, and at home, I wear it over my clothes.Before the pregnancy, I was a size 14. As I'm carrying twins, I ordered a large, and it fits great. I'm in my 8th month, and there's at least 5"" of expansion room."
+9832,1,This movie is terrible.,"This is probably in the top five worst movies I have ever seen--no plot, not funny, bad acting, and a waste of time. However, if you just want to see nearly naked guys with awesome abs this is the movie you are looking for."
+9833,2,Wish I'd bought this sooner!,Very easy to set up and works great in daily use. It clearly has benefitted from careful design - I particularly like how easy it is to rotate the direction of flow by turning the nozzle using the gnurled knob with my thumb.
+9834,2,D! 4!,"If you even think you like punk rock, and you don't own this album, then you need some serious help. Dillinger Four is, without a doubt, the greatest punk rock band to ever exist. They blend intelligent lyrics with catchy pop punk and can drink beer like no one else I know. Is this the best album of the 1990s? Umm...yeah."
+9835,1,poor dvd quality,The content of this dvd is exceptional - my 2 and a half year old loves all the songs. however after playing it a few times the dvd started skipping and halting. tried cleaning it to no avail.
+9836,1,Can not be relied upon for accurate BP readings,"I gave this product 1 star because it simply can not be relied upon. If you are watching your BP, you need to have an accurate reading. I have been using the Omron HEM-711 arm cuff for years, and verified its readings while in my Dr's office, and it is very accurate. I bought this wrist cuff because I thought it would be more portable, but was very disappointed in the accuracy.The SYS reading was a much as 15 to 20 points below, and the DIA was around 10 points below what the arm cuff was telling me. The pulse reading was right on. The wrist cuff will not inflate until it is in the correct position relative to your heart, so I know I was wearing it correctly and had it positioned correctly.This is completely unacceptable and downright dangerous if you're trying to keep a eye on your BP."
+9837,1,The DVD did not play,The DVD was not compatible with any of my DVD players. This is very disappointing to me because I have been looking for this movie for years and just recently remembered the name.
+9838,1,BIG!!!!,"This carseat looked so comfortable and when we put our son into it, he seemed to like it and it fit him so well! But when we got it home and tried to install it!!!!!!! This thing is ***HUGE*** We have a Chevy Blazer and an '05 Dodge Ram Quad Cab and this car seat will not fit in either of the trucks! I had to move the passenger seats all the way forward and sitting up straight in order to fit the car seat in. It would not fit in the center because then I would have to move both the driver's seat and the passenger seats up! If you had a mini-van or something that had a large back seat, you probably won't have any problems.It was also a pain to install! I tried to install it in the Blazer, but I couldn't get the seat belt tight(no LATCH) because where I would put my knees in the seat it where the belt has to run under the padding. You may have better luck with the LATCH.I am now looking for a seat that my 20lbs, 27inch tall, 4 month old will be able to use! Good Luck!"
+9839,2,1%,"This book gives some much needed insight into this unexplained world, especially for physicians who are often caught up in the black and white of reality. Dr Groopman explains in a way that even physicians who believe only in statistics can grasp.I will take a way a sense that we in the medical community do not know everything. We never said we do, in fact, we constantly say we do not - but we feel as if we do. I will take away that if there is a 99% chance of certain death than 1% will not - and maybe, just maybe all your patients will be so lucky..."
+9840,2,"Two Steps Foward, One Back for this classic.","If you're reading this, you probably already know that Civilization is the mother or all turn based strategy games. It's all here and it's all polished like never before. Or is it? Having played through several games of Civ3 now, I still find myself wrestling with the interface for some basic tasks. Here's an example: you create embassies by double-clicking the star icon that marks you capital. Easy once you learn it, but intuitive? No.The game remains brilliant, and the designers were not about to tamper with the formula that worked so well before. If you're looking for a big change from previous Civ games, you're not going to get it here. (Try the EXCELLENT game Alpha Centauri, also from the same team.) Expecting a big change in the Civ genre is like expecting a big change in Chess. It works, why mess with it that much?"
+9841,2,Grits (Girls Raised in The South) Guide to Life,"I was raised in the South in the fifties and I cannot tell you how much I enjoyed this book nor have I laughed so much in a long time. My daughter gave it to me and I told her she should read it so she could understand her Southern bred Mother better. A truly wonderful read for any woman, anywhere."

+9844,1,Bad quality. No warranty,"I bought the acetate cards from the official Modiano site, and after a month of use, all the cards started discolorating. The ink started coming off, and now these ""premium"" cards look worse than a used bicycle deck. I took very good care of my cards, so I thought it was a manufacturing defect. I emailed Modiano directly, and they said:""I'm sorry unfortunatly Modiano does not offer a warranty to there cards. If you wish to purchase replace cards you can send $1 for each card along with a self addressed stamp envelope to address on your replacement card form.""I'm not sending them $104 to replace both decks. Such a shame, because they seemed like good cards otherwise.I'd recommend you stay away from them just because of the bad customer service and the quality of their products.Now time to look for a better set to replace these decks."
+9845,1,Horrible,"Purchased this item, was a knock off and did not work. Spent an additional 14.00 for shipping and this is not the true manufacture maker. Not to mention I'm still waiting for my refund and was never notified that I could send it back. Lucky thing I went on Amazon to order something else, or I would of missed the return date. Overall I give it a minus 5....Also in order to summit this I was forced to give it one star!"
+9846,1,Our Ed Wood?,"I've spent years trying to figure out the appeal of Oliver Stone films. I've now seen this film twice in that effort, and I hereby give up. This is trite, full of overblown cliches aimed at...who knows? Does anyone really enjoy this goop? There's 4 times more fun in an Ed Wood movie than this plodding morass. Can anyone name me a single moment of Fun in this pretentious exercise?"
+9847,2,Great de-shedder,My cats love to be brushed with this tool. The amount of hair removed is amazing! Make sure you are outside or in an easy to vacuum area when you use it because of the amount of hair removed. Works great on both long-haired and short-haired cats.
+9848,2,Get it done,"If you love beautiful gardens in California, but haven't a clue how to go about creating one, this is your book. Landscaping made simple is how I'd describe this book. One of the best features in the book is that you can see the full height/growth potential of different plants and trees. Also, there is a detailed guide on what grows where using a number system to trace each section. Thus, you won't fall too hard for any plant, flower or tree that hasn't a chance of thriving in your particular environment. On the other hand, you can plant with confidence those garden items that will succeed in your home. As surrounding yourself with nature can soothe the soul, this book serves as a handy tool in eventually finding a garden sanctuary.Love, Mom: A Mother's Journey From Loss to Hope."
+9849,1,Coulter Knows Slander,"As she recently demonstrated with her lies about war hero Max Cleland. Coulter and her fellow Chicken Hawks have demonstrated again and again that they have no shame or decency and that a big lie trumps a white lie every time. Wise up, America. You are being lied to and laughed out for your gullibility."
+9850,2,Great coming of age story,"I originally heard this novel in podcast form off of Podiobooks.com and it immediately pulled me in. This writer draws you in with great characterization and really gets teen-angst. The setting being placed in the 1980's adds an extra layer of nostalgia for an '80s kid myself and I just couldn't get enough of the Sovereign universe. If you're a fan of shows like Heroes, Freaks & Geeks or My So Called Life and/or movies like X-men you should definitely give this book a shot. You won't be disappointed."
+9851,2,As great as the reviews say.,This book has been reviewed extensively so I'll just add that it deserves every bit of praise. I will say that you don't have to be a science fiction fan at all to enjoy this book. I read very little from this genre but this is one of my favorite novels of all time.
+9852,1,Pretty Much Disposable,Used this pan on 2 or 3 camping trips and it's completely worthless after just a half-dozen meals. I know it's cheap but it should last longer than it did. Everything sticks to it and the resultant residue is practically impossible to remove.
+9853,1,One star is a stretch,"Sometimes the old saying""ya get what ya pay for"" is exactly that.Not in this case however. If a woodwindinstrument is what you're looking for,look elsewhere.I ended up making an entirely differentinstrument all together. See it had holesdrilled in it so I hung some empty nitrousbulbs from fishing line and made myselfa wind-chime. If you're looking for a cheapwoodwind instrument I don't recomendthis one...peace"
+9854,2,Love to open wine now,I have seen this product at wine bars and wanted it for myself. I first used it at a party and soon all my guests were trying it out. Then I bought 2 more for gifts and they all love it. Great idea for anyone who enjoys wine.
+9855,2,Easy & Delish!,"I can see this method would be great for Moms with families but I have raised my children and now cook for one or two on a regular basis. I love Ms. Yarnell's method! I cook and eat only organic, healthy meals and this is so easy to put together, then do whatever I want to around the house and presto! there's my dinner! Gloriously Impressed!SueB."

+9857,1,Republican cover for the creeping EU coup,"Mr Hari is inded a 'non-journalist', as John Pilger describes him. He is arrogant, ignorant and pompous beyond his years. It's no surprise that the reactionary Trotskyite and Bush-loving fool Christopher Hitchens likes him. This damns them both! Hari hates the British royal family and wants to get rid of them in order to make it easier for Tony Blair to abolish Britain's sovereignty and make us a province of a new undemocratic state called Europe. This would open the door for Blair to become President not just of Britain but of Europe. A new Pope, indeed!"
+9858,1,Very disappointing - Needs serious proofing,"Although the premise of this book is good, the execution is very poor. I gleaned a few good observations from it, but overall I found the book utterly disappointing ... for content and especially for professionalism. The number of proofreading errors is extensive and the writing is less than organized. I found myself wondering whether this book was edited at all. Don't waste your money ... spend it on something more valuable to someone in their first year, like Multiple Sclerosis: The Facts You Need by Dr. Paul O'Conner."
+9859,1,10 years later and this still sounds like crap !,"This crap makes death metal sound melodic. It's laughable at best and what's worse is that I saw them on this tour with Van Dahl on vocals and everyone walked out on the band because it was billed as L.A.Guns and this is not L.A. Guns. Suckups to the band will argue that it's just heavier than the normal L.A. Guns sound but that doesn't account for the despicable attempts at song writing that ended up on this cd. If you want to hear L.A. Guns sound heavier than usual, then buy Traci Guns solo cd. It is freakin' heavy and it rocks. The songs are great."
+9860,2,Another book with predictable characters....big suprise,"The characters always wind up doing the same thing, and thats when any success comes into view, they avoid it. It's all to familiar if u have read his other books. Still it's pretty good,"
+9861,1,Ok I guess,The book was great but I have never seen such BAD acting in any other movie. Read the book and skip the movie!
+9862,2,Let's never forget...,"Another great episode. The historic background in which the plot is developed around is another shameful chapter in Humanity's history-Bosnian War (1992-1995), and the story develops around two sisters who survived the atrocities of that conflict and a war criminal in hiding whom are suddenly thrown in each others paths for one last time. Mystery, suspense, sadness, shame, despair... are feelings that are respectfully not resolved in the last fifteen minutes but there is a little justice at the end, achieved only by the tenacity of Chief Superintendent Jane Tennison."
+9863,1,the devil is in the details,"The most important question about this game is whether the exercises have anything to do with maintaining useful brain functioning. It's true that computation is important and that cognitive flexibility is vital, but is that all there is?Even if you grant that things like humor and imagination are beyond the reach of a video game, it's hard to avoid the suspicion that the test exercises are there simply because they're easy to administer on the little console.Beyond that, the game's unreliability both in terms of voice and writing recognition makes it frustrating. If you spend most of your time trying to overcome the game's reliability, you're probably not having much fun.There was something else I wanted to say, but I forgot. . . . ."
+9864,2,"Wonderfully elegant, yet sturdy","I just unpacked and used my 8 plus 4 piece set of Oneida, and all I can say is WOW. It's just a gorgeous set of flatware, very elegant, yet sturdy enough for everyday use. I wasn't too sure when I ordered this set that it was the right design for me, but when I opened the box, the inlay on the handle is in a matte finish, with the outer curve a wonderfully shiny surface - a great complement. The wonderfully simple detailing at the base of the utensil itself is, in my opinion, one of the delights of this set. It's enjoyable to look at, and enjoyable to use.Overall, I think anyone who gets this will thoroughly enjoy it. This set will last me a good, long while, and is very worth the price."
+9865,2,What can be said about this Classic,"A wonderful cast. A great story line will keep you wondering, just what a great life we have when you open your mind and deal with life in a new point of view...."
+9866,2,Guiltless winners!,"Good product and difficult to get in my local stores so mail order is the way to go; also cheaper by the dozen! Only comment is that due to shipping, an extraordinary number of chips in each bag are broken and it seems that each bag has less air in it than store bought individual bags - this to create a pillow effect to prevent breakage. Broken pieces still taste good but there is more waste and they are difficult to eat with salsa!"
+9867,1,USA1,Is this the current state of scholarship at the Academy today?? No footnotes or primary sources listed for such conclusions?? Are we supposed to believe these pinheads just because they have PHD behind their name? The other side can list hundreds of primary sources in their works. I'm sure all the pc teachers and profs love this and it will probably be a staple at every modern college. Not worth a dime for a thinking person who really wants the truth.
+9868,2,Great price and very effective,These filters are high quality and keep the coffee clear and tasting great. No coffee dust makes it through and they fit perfectly.
+9869,1,"Aaliyah, I TRULY Miss U ...","Ashanti probably is a nice enough girl, but where's the talent?This last full length LP just shows how limited as an artist she was. Can't sing, can't dance and can barely walk in high heels.If it weren't for the successes of Janet Jackson, Paula Abdul and Aaliyah, who weren't the greatest singers, but could hold it down as true ""entertainers"" Ashanti probably would have no career.Concrete Rose should be the end of the line for a chick that'll probably end up working a desk job at Murda Inc. in a few years.Stay away from this LP (and this kind of , dare I call it, ""music"" for that matter).Uninspired album with little to no value to the hip hop/R&B; landscape.Get a Mary J. Blige, Faith Evans, Aaliyah, Monica, Brandy, Fantasia, Keyshia Cole or Toni Braxton album before you even consider buying Concrete Rose."
+9870,2,[Great] CD,"This I would have to say is a better album lyrically than was the first album. Both albums are good albums and neither sound the same. However it seems that more thought was put into the lyrics in this album. The album starts off good and ends of as well. Thank god they put Over My Head on this album...All the songs on this album are awesome. The best songs on the album are Something to Someone, Addicted, and Happy in the Meantime. This a great road trip album that everyone can listen to."
+9871,2,works great,"I was leary of the powder since I'm a liquid dye fan. However, it worked brilliantly. Our Halloween Pumpkin shirts were a lovely shade of orange. :)"
+9872,2,A must-have for families with these food allergies,"This book, as well as her new cookbook, is fantastic!! My son has the dairy-egg-peanut allergy & my husband has a dairy allergy. I've never owned a cookbook that I could make every recipe in it & feed it to my family, and I was running out of new meal ideas when I found these books. There are wonderful cake & frosting recipes and recipes for all courses and occaisions. So many new and simple ideas of ways to prepare chicken, potatoes, rice, desserts and more!! If you have these food allergies in your house the only question is why don't you have this cookbook??!! I ordered this one along with her newer one ""What Else is to Eat"" and I tell you, not one recipe is repeated. Order them both - you won't be disappointed!!"
+9873,1,CRAP,"this is not music, no matter what anyone says. Its crap! anyone can make these tracks. to write an album like this you need the following: 1. no talent, what so ever. 2. loop a bunch of randomized drum beats, then put distortion on em. 3. have some idiot screaming with heavy distortion and a vocoder in the backround about death. 4. have some low end wet synth bass playing somthing that makes no sence 5. every 20 seconds have some annoying ass distorted ear bleeding noise come in and then cut off real short. 6. dont forget to tie yourslef in to the industrial scene. if you want real talent!? and still want that industrial noise? look up a band called ""the lack"" they kill!"
+9874,2,Great ballroom shoes,I've been using this pair of shoes for quite some time now. I've bought them in red and black for my ballroom classes. They are very soft and comfortable and the price was great! I'm very happy with my shoes!
+9875,1,clunk,"Just what the world neeeds, more pop Buddhism. Clearly Ngapa Chogyam cant meet all the need for dharma pablum, so tarrah! Here is yet another new-age lamb in wolfs clothing to read while polishing your crystals. Why not read Pema Chogyam instead? And learn some basic meditation practices? Oh Trungpa the rubbish being marketed in your name!"
+9876,1,NaturVet Fast Bath,"This product doesn't work too well since it is basically a wet shampoo that sprays on--which means you still have to towel dry the dog and finish grooming like you would after a regular bath. I guess it saves some time, but I thought I was getting a dry spray-on shampoo product and was disappointed with this. It may be o.k. for short-haired dogs, but it doesn't work well for poodles and probably wouldn't work too well on long-haired breeds."
+9877,1,2 Thumbs Up to Eureka/2 Down to SyFy-Universal,"Eureka still out classes most of today's TV series offerings, but I'm jumping on the bandwagon of those opposed to purchasing one season in two full-priced installments. Sorry, SyFy and Universal, but I'm not responsible for the writer's strike... wasn't involved in it in any way... so why do you expect me to pay for it? When you come to your senses and release a reasonably priced full third season, I'll be fighting my way to the front of the line to purchase it. Until then... count me out."
+9878,2,Favorite gift,"Photography in difficult light has become so much easier with this ""extra hand"". I've used it from Anchorage to Istanbul squeezing it onto patio chairs, car tops and tree limbs for perfectly stable support. With carry-on space at a premium I love the fact that it is smaller and more versatile than my larger tripods while still giving my camera the stability low-lighting shots require. I just returned from James Bay, Victoria, BC, where I took fantastic evening photos from a cramped perch where no regular sized tripod would have fit. What began as a travel accessory has become my tripod of choice. The attachment mount is small enough that my camera case easily accommodates it. The Gorillapod remains at the top of my all time favorite Christmas gifts list."
+9879,2,ARETHA and MARIAH is the BEST!!! Celine Dion annoys me!,"I really thought that Mariah will have a showdown with Celine ""the Magician"" (because of her dress) in one song but it did not happen. you know why coz Celines fans will be disappointed if she agrees. Mariah will crush her into pieces! celine shouts the songs..... but Mariah does it more naturally without any effort! so does Aretha which is overwhelming! Gloria and Shania didnt shine very much but was one great adventure. GO MARIAH!!!!!!!"
+9880,2,Review of Wizard's Convention 2,"Good songs by great performers. A nice collection of songs by all-time stars such as Mike d'Abo, Chris Farlowe, Tony Ashton, John Lawton or Denny Laine. Not forgetting Eddie Hardim himself"
+9881,1,AMAZON INSTANT VIDEO DISAPPOINTS,I ordered this movie through Amazon instant video and the 'playing' of this movie was TERRIBLE. The movie stopped and restarted 5 times.....the movie should have taken 1.5 hours to play .....with all the stops and starts it took over 3 hours. This doesn't happen with other amazon prime movies/tv shows or on netflix.
+9882,1,Not Worth Buying,"Gangsta Boo shows on this CD how wack her lyrics are. Only tracks 3, 8, and 11 are worth a listen."
+9883,1,dog sling,Nothing against the seller everthing as promised. My problem is the dog won't let me carry him in it. He loves to be held but not in this thing/sling! The sling is very confining so I think that is what he dislikes.
+9884,2,A Warm & Very Funny Book for Kids,"I can't believe there's any problem with this funny, smart , and warm book ! On the last page, we meet the brother of The Boy Who Looked Like Lincoln--his name is Dickie and he looks just like Dick Nixon. He even has a TAPE RECORDER and is making two V's for Victory! Anyone who interprets ""Dickie"" in another way has no sense of history and a VERY DIRTY MIND."
+9885,1,Wireless link fails,"I had the same problems others have noted. The link to the remote receiver fails, with no warning, even though both the 'test' routines work on both the transmitter and receiver separately. Thus the product is useless"
+9886,1,Incredibly idiotic,"This book could have been shorter by leaving out the word 'I.' Totally unedited and gramatically terrible. Also Graham starts off describing his own flying experience in a T-41, the predecessor to the F-16.Ha! It's a single engine Cessna, predecessor to the Cessna 172. To believe that ""muscles"" could be the brains behind the largest marijuana smuggling operation in Texas, certainly not his multi-millionaire boss is ridiculous.This is a book about a crooked man and a pilot with little knowledge of what's going on under his nose"
+9887,1,Don't waste your money on this product!,Having read many bad reviews about this product but I did not believe so I gave it a try...now I have to pay the price for that. The one of mine has the same problems as you can read in many reviews. I just don't want to say anything more because this thing is useless...more over Amazon will not let you return on this product!!! So beware of it!
+9888,1,Hated this book...,"Maybe I'm just not used to this kind of book, with all the short short stories, but when I finished, I was scratching my head and thinking, ""Well, that was a waste of time""."
+9889,1,more of a rental then a purchase,I watched this movie in the theaters and I have to say it was the first time I've ever fallen asleep at the movies. I thought it'd be a cool movie cause Nicholas Cage is in it but boy was I wrong. I can't remember the movie and I watched it a few months ago so it's that bad. Rent it. Don't buy it.
+9890,1,Get the real Bender Ball,Would have been nice if it came with a couple photo instructions on what exercises to do with it.
+9891,2,Pleasantly suprised,I saw this product at a retail store and wanted it but the cost was too high......looked it up here and now own it for less than a third the cost.Seller disclosed that there was water spots on the paperwork included......I figured so what......result you have to really strain to see anything wrong with it
+9892,1,not as expected,Part number was correct for the radial arm saw but it did not fit. It would have helped to have a diameter size and picture.
+9893,2,nice tool,Glad I purchased this sander. Works great. Fortunately I have a very large (80 gal) compressor that does not have to work very hard at all to keep the air coming.... :-) I don't know this for sure (as I have not tried) but I suspect you would not be too happy if you tried to run this on one of those two or three gallon 'pancake' compressors you see roofers use.
+9894,2,Meets my needs,"This inexpensive slide reviewer meets my needs perfectly. It is well constructed, takes up a small amount of space to store and the slides are clear and sharp when viewed. Happy with the product CA :>)"
+9895,2,What a wonderful patriotic CD,"I've been searching for some good-sounding patriotic music and finally found it in this CD. The singing is awesome and the songs inspirational. The orchestra adds so much to the songs and it's really meaningful to me to know that this is performed by our own US Navy Band and Sea Chanters Chorus. ""America the Beautiful"" gave me goosebumps, it's the same rendition which was performed for President George W. Bush's first term in office. And the songs ""Hero For Today"" and ""The Last Full Measure of Devotion"" were new to me, but the lyrics are so meaningful. If you are a proud American and enjoy listening to patriotic music then look no further, it's all right here to enjoy!"
+9896,1,Undependable,"This seemed like a great monitor at first. Suddenly after only five months or so of use (5-6 hours per day) I noticed a blurry spot in the screen which began to grow. Adjustments, degaussing, and testing on other computers didn't solve the problem. My old Acer monitor of 5 years is now clearer than the NEC.Regardless of the warranty, repair means shipping off the monitor which causes costly downtime for a small business owner. I lose enough money in the downtime to buy half a dozen or more of these monitors. I expect hardware to last longer than a few months, especially NEC's since it's often costlier than other brands."
+9897,2,Hilarious,"Hilarious. Make all the ""cultural sensitivity"" types read it. Make Madeline Albright do a book report on it. Have P.J. read it out loud to the UN General Assembly. Dave Barry WISHES he was this guy."
+9898,1,"Not ""Incredibly Easy""!!","While this book advertises that it will make ECG interpretation ""easy"", it does provide the proper graphics to make this possible. The first few chapters of the book are accessible and the end of chapter quizzes are helpful. However, once you get to Chapter 3""Interpreting a Rhythm Strip"", the strips are impossible to interpret due the small size of the strips! You need to be able to count the boxes to interpret the rhythms and this is virtually impossible, unless you have a large magnifying glass! I thought this might be one occurrence in the book, but it is throughout, making interpretation of strips near impossible! As a novice ECG person, this is not something that I would have looked for before purchasing the book. Other ECG interpretation books have much better graphics of the strips, making interpretation (while still not ""easy"") doable, and not frustrating!"

+9900,1,Poor quality in content and plus audio is not clear.,"This video promotes the idea/concept that reflexology is a good thing, but it is not an instructional video. The info it does offer is hard to hear because the audio is very poor. This video appears very homemade - not professional. I do not recommend this for anyone."
+9901,2,Is What They Say,"I saw this ball, that for a 2"" was rated at 12k and wondered why it would be rated so high, but I ordered it anyway. The reason they give it the rating they do is that is is fine threaded so you have more thread surface holding it tight. Aside from that, it's a standard 1"" shanked ball and looks good. It is a chrome finish, I'd prefer raw, but I'll take what I can get. Works good if you have one of the older type car trailers with a 2"" coupler and can weigh over 7000 lbs loaded."
+9902,2,Underrated classic fantasy,"I have been reading science fiction for many years. Most of the time, I do not enjoy pure ""fantasy"" novels, Tolkien being a major exception. This novel is the other major exception. While not as ""deep"" in some ways as Tolkien's work, the mythic and archetypal qualities of the characters are just as moving. The writing is superb, as well. This is more than a book for children! Even if you don't usually like fantasy novels, try this one!"
+9903,1,Cannot replace the Battery ( Do Not Buy This),I purchased several of Sylvania's night lights and thought they were great until the batteries became weak and died. I found it almost impossible to disasemble the light but I finnally broke it to see where the batteries were. The one battery is soldered in place but it is not made to replace the battery. It is nice but it will not last long if you can't change the rechargable battery. This is wrong.
+9904,2,Great price~,"My wife went to the US Cellular store to buy my battery and it was $47.00 plus tax! I went online and found this battery at about a $40.00 savings, took the other battery back for a refund and had my new one in about 3 days!!!! Fast shipping and a GREAT price! I'll be back for more in the future!"
+9905,2,energy,"This CD isn't only technique - it's merry, a frolicing good time. Props to ""Field Day"", a song from the POV of cops busting an anti-war march in LA, turning it into a riot. ""And if you're pregnant, I'll kick you. Because a pregnant one counts as two."""
+9906,1,Hard to follow,"I love dance workouts and I have enjoyed other ""bhangra"" workouts, but this one was very poorly done. There is no explanation on how to do the steps and the cueing is off. It was a complete waste of my money."
+9907,1,Great until the last 50 pages.,"I was drawn to this novel both by my great enjoyment of Collins's ""The Woman in White"" and its characters, as well as a long interest in the art of J.M.W. Turner. The novel is atmospheric, suspenseful, and fascinating. If I had stopped reading prior to reaching the resolution that Wilson creates for the mystery of Turner's life that turns into an obsession for Walter Hartright, I'd have been tempted to give this book 4 or even 5 stars. But the events of the final chapters left me feeling betrayed and literally turned my stomach.Perhaps it is naive of me to think that, when an author employs characters created by another--particularly from an acknowledged classic--he owes them a certain degree of respect. I see little appeal in deliberately degrading them or making them depraved, regardless of how logically the case for this is built up.For a more pleasant, lighthearted novel reviving classic characters, the reader might try Jasper Fforde's ""The Eyre Affair"", instead."
+9908,1,"Totally worthless ""professional tester""",This MV5530 compression gauge did not work correctly right out of the box. Almost cost me a lot of unnecessary repair time and money. There is no good reason for Mityvac to ship a new gauge that does not work. Buyer beware of this company's products.
+9909,1,Tired twinkles,"Rather dull exercise in early staged symphonic electronica either wallows in uninspired repetition or bombastically relays scattershot ideas, all under a five movement pretense."
+9910,2,A relaxed day for my flat feet...,"Whe I first tried them on, I felt and thought they will be hurting at the end of the day. I WAS WRONG. At last, after a lot of walking in that day, my flat feet felt like nothing, relaxed and not tired at all. No pain. I will not mold them because they ar fine as they are. My shoes do feel tighter but this is no problem when you have relaxed feet."
+9911,1,unavailable,I ordered the item and was sent back a message a few days later that the item was unavailable. I was refunded and I ordered a different product.
+9912,2,LOVE IT!,My three grandchildren (ages 5 through 10) love this DVD. They watch it in the van when they ride with me and are having so much fun learning the songs that they don't even think about how much they are learning.
+9913,1,Remember when TD had vision and distinction?,"This pointless release seems to be yet another in an endless onslaught of sub-par ""lost"" recordings that have no business being found.There's nothing on ""Sohoman"" that hasn't been heard before and much better. Obviously the pieces played here are not being ""Played"" at all but just recordings PRESENTED live, which is something [...] Froese and Co. started doing in the eighties. [....] anybody can do that.Classic, vintage Tangerine Dream is long,long gone. All there is left now are scraps and memories. It may be time for ol' Ed to shut down his computers and call it a life.(Musically, anyway)"
+9914,1,Extremely poor musicianship,"Rush's music should have translated a lot better that this. Notes are not sustained when they should be, the music sounds very thin, simplified, and without feeling. I've heard Yo-Yo Ma play one cello with so much feeling that it could make you weep. Maybe a full orchestra could have duplicated the full-bodied nature of their music."
+9915,2,Happy w purchase,"Bought this summer and used all season. Depending on what you hang, you may want to purchase a line rodto hold up heavier things like rugs. Easy to install."
+9916,2,Best Bat Man Movies Ever,The last of trilogy was the best Batman movie ever. The acting was superb and I had to buy it even after seeing in the big screen.
+9917,1,Avoid Veratex at all costs!,"I bought this set over a year ago and had the shams immediately fall apart. The comforter lost all of its fill within a year and the bed skirt loses fringe on a daily basis. I've even contacted the manufacturer, and now I know why quality is so low - the whole company is inept. They were rude, told me I had washed them (not so, I have no laundry related amnesia) and ultimately I complained to the BBB uselessly about them. Do yourself a favor and skip anything they make."
+9918,1,Looks better in pictures,"Cant speak to how it sounds because I couldnt get past the looks. The cheap plastic chrome stem and shiny braided wire cover dont look good nor real. Also beware this is the non amplified version (NOS8) so dont expect an NOS8A (amplified). It it BIG, but only requires a few inches from the speaker to work properly which should make it easy to install. The retaining straps are black plastic and thin metal."
+9919,1,Not For Me,"Sorry, but I wish that I would have saved my money on this one. Maybe because I'm a Jay Hickman fan is the reason that this one let me down. This one isn't as raw with the language as in some of the other comedy albums but I just didn't enjoy it."
+9920,1,Good only if you don't cook with tomatoes!,"Though this mat is durable and thin, I am unable to get tomato stains out of it with comet or even diluted bleach. As a result, it has splotches of orange that do not look good against the white sink."
+9921,1,"horrible, negative inaccurate portray of southerners","As an avid Appalachian trail hiker, I was given A Walk in the Woods as a gift that took me four months to read because I was so angry at Bill's depiction of Southerners and condition of the trail. Bill rants about facts that he got from the Wilderness Society handbook that I have seen first hand as factually incorrect. He talked down about the people that he met and was negative about the whole journey. I had a goal of finishing the book so that I could give an honest depiction of the book. I love the trail and southern culture, and there are many great tales far better than A Walk in the Woods such as the story of the blind man who walks the whole trail,Blind Courage by Bill Irwin."
+9922,2,Muy bueno.,"Hermoso disco de grabaciones de juventud del Maestro Karajan, el sonido del disco es muy bueno considerando los años que tienen estas grabaciones. Un disco fundamental para los seguidores de Von Karajan."
+9923,1,Just a lot of noise,"Granted, the afficianados will say ""you must not play any instruments"" but as far as enjoying what I am listening to, this ends up being just a lot of noise. The talent is unquestionable, the result for me of this product is that I feel like just deleting it from my hard drive so I am not tempted to try to like it. The two stars are out of respect for other works done."
+9924,2,Book Review,"This book is great. The Patsy character is my mother-in-law. She and all her brother and sisters are still living well in 2006. She resides in the south while her brother and sisters live in the northern region. She has 6 kids of her own and MANY grand childern. I have heard her tell her stories of living on the river, and it is great to be able to read about it in a story book as well. She talks about wanting to go down the river again someday and she just might."
+9925,2,Silence is deadly,"Another true to life movie with Steve McQueen but this time a taciturn hired gun during the sheep/cow wars in the northwest. But, this time his silence is deadly as the men who hire him leave him high and dry."
+9926,1,"Great, when it works","The product worked as advertised, until it died.Further ANTonline refused to honor the warranty and I had to go directly to Mace which does not normally deal with private parties.Mace is no longer producing this item due to so many unit failures..If it dies all they can replace it with is a generic unit that does not have the motion detection or freeze frame features.If you are lucky and it continues to work, it works great.If it dies don't expect the same unit as a replacement.Avoid like the plague if you do not want to risk your $120."
+9927,1,Too much like a textbook,"I was really excited to get this book and very disappointed with it when it arrived. It is very dry, and presented like a textbook. For such a subject, the author takes things way too seriously, and could of had a lot more fun with this, as opposed to just presenting a dry textbook style report. Good pictures though"
+9928,2,All bakers need this book.,A truely excellent resource for all bakers. This small book has photos and descriptions of what the consistency of your batter should be at different mixing points. The book doesn't spend pages on descriptive text or childhood culinary memories and none of the ingredients listed are exotic. I even had all the ingredients and already owned all the utensils I needed to start cooking immediately. Trust me - just buy this book!
+9929,1,Needs improving...,"The light is intermittent, it only comes on when its heating up and the shuts off when the heater has reached its intended temperature therefore when you look at the warmer you cannot tell from the front that its on. I think there should be two lights, one to show its on and another to show its heating up etc. Because of this poor feature, the warmer has been left on accidently many times.The bottle does not sit flat, but floats unevenly in the water while heating.Avent, you need to improve this before a fire is caused because a Mom had a screaming hungry infant and forgot to turn off the bottle warmer."
+9930,2,Solid purchase,"The mat is made with durable material. Came smelling like plastic but I just hung it out for a night and the smell disappeared. Very good mat, washes well in a washing machine with bleach if necessary."
+9931,1,So unhappy that this wasn't worth watching...,"I've really been in the mood to watch something from the Robin Hood genre, but after about 10 minutes of this (TWICE, I gave it a second try after a couple of months) I was ready to switch to something less annoying (like, Dora the Explorer!) From the lace up boots (and all the other really bad costumes) to the makeup-plastered-on generic wench, just really poorly done.There did seem to be a bit of good repport between Robin and his man servant in the 10 minutes that I did watch, and from that I thought the acting might not be too terrible, but then I saw the fight scene with the wench's father, and I knew what I would have to slog through in order to see the few gems. No thanks..."
+9932,1,Much ado about nothing....,"Disjointed, poorly written. Ending of book leaves lots of loose ends. Author has poor command of English language, and even less of Spanish..."
+9933,2,kick a##!!!!,"I always told people i like all kinds of music except rap and country and kidd rock is both! He puts it all on a level with such a kickin beat, metal, and funny lyrics its soooooooooooooooo cool! I bought the cd for bawitdaba but i love all the songs and i think some are even better than that single. Real diverse cd all songs are original and one doesn't sound like the next. You just have to have it!!!! I can't say all the good things about it you just gotta get it yourself and see. If you like Rage, and beastie boys you'll for sure like this."
+9934,2,Great Seller,The merchandise was in excellent condition and arrived very promptly. I would reccommend this seller to everyone in a heart beat. Excellent customer service!!!
+9935,1,Avoid this router...,"It's cheap, but you get what you pay for. It shipped with v 1.50.10 of the firmware, but using this version, the router didn't work with one of my friend's wireless cards. Upgrading it to 1.50.14 broke connectivity with another one of my friend's wireless card. When I upgraded it to 1.52.02, there were no connection problems with the wireless... but now, random connections will drop every few minutes. It makes the connection more or less useless. I'm planning on upgrading routers--I haven't decided to what yet. Even though the DGL-4300 by DLink is a lot more expensive, all the reviews are positive, so I'm strongly considering upgrading to that."
+9936,2,LOVE THIS SHOW,It is just fantastic music - well performed and moving. If you've ever done a musical audition you know that the audition song is truely inspired
+9937,2,Great Binos but...,"I just got these from Amazon yesterday and have been having a lot of fun with them at night watching the stars. The image is sharp and I like the thumb rests on the bottom of each barrel. Quality is excellent except for one thing that nobody has mentioned in the reviews yet-that the support that holds each eyepiece to the body is made of plastic. You can gently push on each eyepiece and the plastic will flex, moving the eyepiece closer to the body. The flexing doesn't seem to cause any problems with the image but it bugs me. Everything else about them is excellent. They feel heavy duty and durable. I just wonder if anyone has broken the plastic piece or if it has caused the image to blur a little over time. Since Nikon has the 25 year warranty on them I have to have confidence that they will last. I'm taking away one star for the use of plastic in a key location that I think should have been made of metal."
+9938,2,The Italian Fiddler at His Best,"I can't overstate the importance of these contemporary recordings of Italian music by Italian bands. It may be cliched to say that it takes an Italian to properly perform Italian music, but in this case it certainly seems to be the case. The sense of drama is so effective: the facility with which this group can drop from fortissimo to pianissimo, the timing of dramatic pauses, the variation in articulation, etc. There is a very advanced and improvisatory approach to ornamentation and vibrato (a much more liberal, but yet tasteful use of the latter than is found in the Northern-European recordings of this music). This is really the showcase album for Europa Galante's leader Fabio Biondi and his terrifying virtuosity and artistry. The only thing more terrifying than this intense and ferocious music is when it is placed in the hands of fiddler with such great music taste and control."
+9939,2,I Want It,"Three words, I WANT IT. I played Jedi Knight and I loved it. There was just one problem with it. The graphics were horrible. I saw some screen shots of the gameplay and noticed that the graphics were even better than Force Commander. I Want It!"
+9940,1,Mildly amusing.,"I've ready most, if not all of this series, and this is by far the worst. The writing is now formulaic. Max is sexy as hell, and lazy, and Annie Darling is just....well, darling. Outside of that, the only thing that happens is a convoluted plot, lots of references to other writers, and some good puzzles for the mysterioso. But if you spend much money or time on this little piece of fluff, you deserve the final words in the novel: ""April Fool."""
+9941,2,Fix for Frozen Images,"Overall, I like the frame so far. However, my main purpose for this review is to let you know how to fix the freezing of pictures. The problem is related to the length/format of the filename. If you rename all the images to numeric names, ie (1.jpg, 2.jpg, etc) you will no longer find your frame freezes.Hope this helps someone out."
+9942,2,The Innocent Man - WOW wake up call,"As a former baseball guy, I was mesmerized by this guy's tragic road. Grisham made me feel emotions I would not have felt. This was an extremely emotional book and I immediately sent a copy to my cousin who had spent years in the field of helping those who have been deemed criminally insane. Emotional and the story is so unbelieveable yet it is TRUE!"
+9943,1,Not for everyday vacuuming,"I am a mother of three kids under the age of six.I probably vacuum at least 1 to 2 times a day. I was sucked into buying this vacuum because of the reviews, and low price. I bought it in April and it is already falling apart. The hose for the atachments has cracked and chipped off and has acouple of holes in it. I was expecting to get at least a year out of a vacuum(with such good reviews)before it started to need repairs. The other thing I didn't know before buying was how heavy it really was, this vacuum will definitly make you sweat!"
+9944,2,"Easy, Fun Read","A great book to pick up, read a page or two and put back. Great for the coffee table too."
+9945,1,To strong for me,"I had to give this perfume away, it's a little to strong for me, smells like old women perfume, back in 1970..To strong!tamara"
+9946,2,One of my all time favorite albums,"I got turned onto this album about 2-3 years after it came out, and it shot right up to the top of my most-played list. Thirteen years later, it still gets regular rotation in my cd player and car. This album is stunningly good. If you like that British Soul/Acid Jazz vibe, this is the album for you. The album is excellent from start to finish. I wish I could pick a favorite song, but then I keep listing other favorites until I've listed every track on the album. The other two D'Influence Albums ""Prayer 4 Unity"" and ""London"" do not measure up to Good 4 We, although Prayer is much much better than London, which I thought was very weak. But please, if you don't already have this album, it is a must that you add it to your collection."
+9947,2,Different.... loved it!,"I really loved this book. At first, it was hard to get into based on the style of switching back and forth between characters and trying to piece together the intial time lines. However, once you got past the first couple of chapters and became familiar with the style, the book was great. I found it captivating, intriguing and enjoyable. I couldn't wait to find out what happened next. A great love story, with a concept of time travel, that left me wanting more..."
+9948,2,Cute and Comfy Boots,"These boots are cute, comfy and versatile. The color is perfect. They were slightly snug but not uncomfortably so. I usually wear a 6 and ordered a 6."
+9949,2,"GREAT ""How-To"" Guide for Communications Professionals","This book is a clear, concise read on handling the media during a crisis - and how to come out a winner. At just under 200 pages, it's packed with more useful info than a book 3x its size.The one thing that really stands out is Hoffman's clear understanding in all communications - know who your audience is and speak directly to them - no matter what the medium. This is NOT a ""How-To Spin"" book - but a ""'How-To' put the facts out there honestly and in the best possible light"" book.I recommend it for ALL folks in the executive levels in corporate America as well as those in PR, communications, Marketing, or agency work."
+9950,1,Bad book!!,After reading good reviews and liking the idea of the story I just couldn't get into this book. I was really excited and was very disappointed! It was vague and just didn't flow. I tried and tried and couldn't get through half the book.
+9951,2,Wonderful Wild Visionary Ride,"If you're already a Stephenson fan, you won't be disappointed. This is a brilliant hero's journey filled with extraordinary imagery and vibrant characters. Not quite as elegantly written as his later books (like Quiksilver for example) but still hugely enjoyable. Given when it was penned, Stephenson almost seems to have written our current tech reality into existence! Recommended."
+9952,2,A Great Little GMRS Radio,"The Midland G-18 (mine was actually labeled G-11) is a great GMRS radio. Key features include a removable antenna that allows the use of either an improved portable device antenna or a mobile antenna for improved range and easy to access scanning functions. It is easy to program and has a lot of flexibility with respect to battery power (rechargeable/alkaline and AA/AAA). A great radio for those wanting a GMRS radio with more ""commercial"" features. Urban range with 4 AAA batteries and a good aftermarket antenna is a solid 2 miles which is very good for this type of radio. They are now hard to find but worth it if you are looking for a small, lightweight GMRS that is cheaper that then the Mil-Spec commercial units (ICOM, Motorola, etc)."
+9953,1,a deeply flawed text,"While an important contribution to the literature on the history of the Cold War, a shocking number of production errors marrs the text. The most agregious error is in Laura Nadar's essay in which she inadvertantly accuses Eric Wolf of stealing documents when he was in fact the recipient of such documents. Even the most sympathetic reader will eventually question the conclusions reached by the contributors"
+9954,2,Fun Movie,"Even though the movie strayed from the book quite a bit in places (which is odd considering Adams helped write it), the movie is fun and worth watching."
+9955,2,Creative makeup,"as a profressional, I do think this is a great book for creative ideas. Not right if you want basic info on colors for skintones, though. Beautiful pictures."
+9956,1,very disappointing,"I read the first book and was delighted. So I immediately rushed to get the second one when it got out. But what a let-down. Obviously, Humphreys had said everything he had to say in the first book, and so the second volume is boring, repetitive and thoroughly disappointing."
+9957,2,GREAT!,"The movie is great! Good for all ages, touching movie. A must see even if you prefer a lot of hardcore action ;)"
+9958,2,Good Product,"I like the foam roller. Trouble was, I couldn't get the educational DVD to open on my Mac or a DVD player. Never tried it in a PC."
+9959,2,stupid dumb tight,"this was a great dvd. mac dre is off da chains and he got much love for the fans. im from the yay area so it was typical like the other bay are dvd's( sideshows and beezies) but it also had a lot of extras. it had about 7 stage performances from California livin to THe Thizzle dace. it had his 3 cars introduced. it has footAge from all over northern cali and it even has monterey and fresno. introduces the rappers whos albums he put out, liuke rydAh J. Klyde and dubee.it has yukmouth mac mall, sumthin terrible and more it will be much more than u expected. it also has fights at parties."
+9960,2,Interesting. Ok but not as good as other WEB books.,"An interesting view of history in novel form. The story is not as spell binding as other WEB G books but still had the ability to hold my interest from cover to cover.Enough historical ""facts"" to keep the interest up in what would otherwise be a delay in finding out what has befallin the Marines in the South Pacific. I still recommend this book. However if it the first WEB G book you are going to read start with the first of the Brotherhood books or the first of the Corps books to fall compleatly under the WEB G spell."
+9961,2,"Great, Grand, and Wonderful!","I have read many nonfiction medical experiences but none were as fun and constantly interesting as this one was. I loved the quick wit humor, the down to earth descriptions, and his love for his wife (I did experience postpartum depression for her due to her continuous pregnancies)! Dr. Collins tries to be modest in his descriptions of how he felt incapable many times during his residency but his true high intelligence comes through in his actions and sincere feelings for his profession and people. I live in Minnesota so I appreciate his respect he had for the Mayo Clinic and the surrounding communities. I will grab the next publication he writes without hesitation. This book was too short!"
+9962,1,cheap cheap,"I have owned lamps from this company for years .Oh what a difference a decade makes. My old lamps are still beautiful. The new one was awful. Literally and figuratively, it couldn't hold a candle next to this imposter. Spend a little more and get something else-almost anything else."

+9964,1,No support for this item!,"I recently purchased this item and it no longer is supported. Once loaded, the program attempts to register via dial-up to Caere corporation. Two problems! It doesn't recognize a high-speed modem and Omnipage is now owned by Nuance. You will then get continuous countdown warnings on how many times you can use your software until the counter reaches zero. I do not know if version 10 fixes this problem."
+9965,2,This is the best!,"This movie is one of the best movies I have ever seen. It is funny and scatter-brained, but the director keeps it together without missing a beat. The characters are memorable and this is a movie you won't soon forget, if ever. Also, for those who love Antonio Banderas, this movie is a wonderful chance to see his early work and what he can do with a part that could have been overlooked. Instead, he turned it into one of the best supporting roles I can remember! This movie is great fun and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!"
+9966,2,Down where? Down there!,"Hey, if you're reading this, you know what DX is about, so I won't waste your time. This tape loses a star for not having a lot of actual wrestling in it, but other than that it's pure entertainment."
+9967,2,thank the stars that this book was written.,"ok, guys don't have this organ or this problem, and you have to be a noble man to want to understand your wife or woman with this natural biological cycle. come on, you owe it to her to try and understand her and be symapthetics. it is the right thing to do."
+9968,1,"Bad, bad, bad!!!",I kept thinking this novel was going to get better. It never did. Parts of the story were disjointed and didn't match up with previous parts. Don't think I will pick up another W.G.Griffiths book again.
+9969,1,Not a Good Choice for a Mega Light,"Extremely unwieldy and very poorly designed.The grip is extremely uncomfortable, and is way too small for the size of the lamp head.There apparently was absolutely no ergonomic design thought put into this light.I have tried some of the other lights on Amazon, but, like other purchasers, had battery recharging issues.The search continues."
+9970,2,This is a book that reminds one to stop and smell the roses.,"This is a wonderfully written book about a Native American woman who goes out into the desert and observes the wonders and beauty of nature around her. She records what she finds fascinating and creates her OWN holidays or celebrations. One day she may observe a green cloud and call it Green Cloud Day. On another day, she may observe a shooting star and call it Star Day. She gets outside of herself and observes wonderous things that may only be seen once in a lifetime!"
+9971,2,One of my favorites,"I just finished reading this book for the second time, I read it about 4 years ago and for some unkown reason i picked it up agian. It is a beautiful book, in so many different ways. It has a voice a feel that I can't articulate, but that has touched me both times I have read it. Yes, it has flaws, but they add to its beauty - the overall story has an honesty and quirkiness which really transports the reader."
+9972,1,Disappointing,"This book was highly rated and got great reviews. Why? Although it had some sparkle in the descriptions, I found the plot and the characters to be one cliche after another, with an overabundance of meaningless symbolism and a very lightweight attitude toward Tibetan mysticism. The angel truck stop that serves angel food cake? The polka dot/black holes? Other writers have touched on similar themes with far more originality. This book, in fact, reminded me of a Cliff Notes version of ""The Magus"" by John Fowles."
+9973,2,i love ken burns' films,I love the films by Ken Burns and crew. I've bought this set as a gift a few times. It's a great sampler of his smaller works. Highly recommended for fans of documentaries!
+9974,1,Broken,"It came broken, I sent it back. I had to go last minute Christmas Shopping...and I still haven't received another piece from Amazon!"
+9975,2,Fresh Espresso Lover,"A friend of mine had the BRIEL EG281 multi-pro with built in coffee grinder. They absolutely love having fresh coffee beans ground on the spot, then placed in a filter holder for an ""instant"" espresso. I was surprised at the rich crema and texture that the espresso coffee was extracted from the machine, which proves to me this machine is a winner. It takes a strong pump to give a proper espresso.Then it blew my mind when I learned you can also use the coffee pod or serving. I've had illycaffe in the past and actually like the pods my friend had better. The extraction was even richer with the pod and there was absolutely no messy cleanup.I've had an entry level pump espresso machine from Krups and found it to be marginal at best. I'm sold on BRIEL and this MULTI-PRO machine is great. I'm not sure if I'm going to buy the one with the built in grinder or the one with the built in 10-cup drip coffeemaker. Maybe I'll have to get both!"
+9976,2,EO-Tech 512,"All in all, this is a great product. One of the best features is that it has the parallax (i think that's what it's called) which means that no matter where your head is, the dot is always gonna be on target. I've been issued AimPoint CCO's and Trijicon ACOG's, but when it came to parts for my own rifle, it was between this and an ACOG. Due to the price I went for the EO-Tech (EO-Tech = $400, ACOG = $1,000+). The sight picture is great, it stays on sight very well, and it's very durable. Not to mention it takes standard AA batteries, which is GREAT. All in all, it's an expensive sight, but you'll get what you pay for. 4 Stars because there's no such thing as a perfect piece of equipment.Pro's:Battery lifeWater resistantGreat sight pictureDurableStays sighted inComes with a nice caseCon's:PriceTakes up a TON of rail spaceDoesn't come with lens covers"
+9977,2,Generally a Great Book,"Patriots vividly brings to life the men behind the Amerucan Revolution. It deals in depth with the causes behind the war, but it's only drawback would have to be the way in which Langguth quickly wrapped up the war by spending only about a hundred and fifty pages on the years between the Declaration of Independence and the British defeat at Yorktown. All in all though, Patriots is an excellent book."
+9978,1,What a waste,We were trying to find movies with Alex O'loughlin and there aren't that many. We saw that he could really act in Moonlight but you won't see that in this one. There is a crude scene also that is just something they put in it. Guess they thought it would help. Well it didn't and as a matter of fact it almost turned us off him.
+9979,1,Review of 'Teach Yourself Orcle 8 in 21 Days' by Ed Whalen,This is one of two books I bought as part of a package 'Oracle JDeveloper Suite Personal Edition 1.1' put out by Oracle/MacMillan Digital Publishing USA. The package comprises two disks : Oracle JDeveloper 1.1/Oracle Application Server 4.0.7/Oracle Enterprise Edition 8.0.5. The books are absolutely useless and I had to find four other books to learn how to install and how to use the package. It is not the normal style of Teach Yourself books where one can learn by matching what is in the book. I am afraid this book puts me off from anymore Teach Yourself books by SAMS.
+9980,2,Perfect for the therapy practitioner office waiting room,"If you're a marriage and family therapist or something a similar field, this is the perfect tool to place in the waiting room to help insure confidentially in your office, especially if there is several practitioners sharing 2 or more offices. Plus it has a pleasant soft wind sound that's not disrupted for those in the waiting area."
+9981,2,Awesome,"This is a great toy for many reasons:Construction: It is well-made, and the material is very soft. The eyes are fabric so there is no need to worry about small parts coming off- it's perfect for toddlers!Colors: I have been using this toy to teach my son colors. The colors are bright and vibrant.Size: It's a medium size- it's a decent size and yet small enough for a toddler to pick up and walk around with.I think this is a really cool toy, especially because it offers something that's fun to look at and play with for kids who aren't into traditional stuffed animals, or for the parent who wants something a little more unique and fun for their kids' collection."
+9982,1,Cheap,"I usually love Kenneth Cole shoes, but these ones look and feel really cheap. I bought mine on the end of November and they lasted me a month and a half and they already broke. The sole came off by the heal and there's no way to fix them. Really disappointed."
+9983,1,Unhappy with adapter,I am not electronically savy. I owned an Olympus Stylus that I purchased in 2007 (the XD card is much larger then what they sell now) and bought a Cannon Selphy to print my pictures. The XD card for my camera would not work in the Cannon so I ordered this XD adapter; however my XD card would not work in it. The adapter does not come with any direction's so all I could do was guess at what to do with it.
+9984,1,Didn't Like It,"Well, I was bored. I couldn't connect with the characters, I found it hard to finish. I didn't finish this book with good feelings for the characters like I usually do with a romance book. I found Brandon's temper disturbing, he is very mean and cruel to Heather, reminded me of an abusive relationship I was in. I don't think the rape scene was necessary, it was to violent. I wouldn't recommend anyone who hasn't read this story, to bother. I hope this isn't a sign of things to come from Kathleen Woodiwiss. I actually wondered while reading this story if it was even written by her! Seriously! This story did evoke some emotions......but unfortunetly none of them were good."
+9985,2,'Listen To Your Heart' -- directed by Matt Thompson,"Great movie filmed in New York, directed by Matt Thompson and written by Kent Moran. Scenes were filmed with the 'Red Cam' so it feels like you're right there with the actors. It's a great story about a high society deaf girl (controlled by her mother) and an ordinary 'Joe' (who works for a living) who fall in love. His dream is music and so is hers, even though she can't hear. Make sure to have your tissue ready for it will tug at your heart and the tears will come.It has won many awards in the film festivals throughout the US, one which was 'Best Director' at the Beverly Hills Film Festival.It's another Love Story movie worth watching."
+9986,2,Best value ever!,"I have owned these headphones for about 2 years now, and I really love them. I've tried lots of different pairs, and for the money, the AD700's just blow the competition away. The only situation I can think of where I wouldn't suggest them, is for bass. You're really not going to get high bass output from these, and you shouldn't from the design, get M50's for that. For everything else, gaming especially, AD700's are king."
+9987,1,"OK, but not close to OEM","It was cheap, but it is cheap. It vibrates and is not nearly as stable as the one that came with the car, and it whistles because it was not designed well enough. There is a line or a hole or something that whistles at any speed over about 25 mph and is quite annoying."
+9988,1,Boring,"Some of these low budget movies make up for it with a good story, not this one, it just didn't seem to go anywhere."
+9989,1,Don't waste your money,"I purchased the book expecting some practical approach. I was disappointed; it's all theory, and there are too many mistakes in the text."
+9990,2,It ain't over 'til everybody sings,"Simply wonderful version of the Victor Hugo classic. Small warning, longest curtain in theatrical history. Everybody but the janitor takes a bow and even he may have been in there somewhere. But if you are a Les Miz fan you will love this 25th anniversary concert DVD from the O2."
+9991,1,Should Have Listened to the Other Reviewers!,"I decided to take a chance on this kettle because there were quite a few positive reviews. I figured maybe I'd get one of the good ones. Hah! I got a leaker. It leaked after the first use. I tried it 2 more times just to be sure and it leaked both times. Also, the filter that came with it was not like the one shown in the picture. Mine was silver, not gold, and didn't have the cross pieces. Very flimsy filter. And the spout was different also. There were no tabs for the filter to slip into. You just snap the filter in place and hope it stays. All in all, a waste of time. Thank heaven for Amazon's 30 day return policy."
+9992,2,great!,Abby's Book is a book where when Abby writes her autobiography. She remembers all kinds of sad and happy stuff. Like how she and Anna had to color code themselves in 1st grade. And when they went to secluded Sanibel. There's lots more but I won't spoil it for you.
+9993,2,An essential engineering reference,"Since 1956, there has not been a pamphlet or book with so much useful and quickly accessable design knowledge per page as this volume. If a person is wanting to build vintage/retro style electronic equipment, or interface old gear with new, that person MUST have a few Tremaine volumes on the shelf. The current price of under $20 is a huge bargain that won't last. I ordered a hardcover with DJ to sit next to my tattered paperback. The standard for these books is ""none available""."
+9994,2,Great read.,"After reading BY REASON OF INSANITY I went out and got the only other two Stevens books I could find, this on and THE ANVIL CHORUS. Still haven't read CHORUS yet but did read this. It is a great story that'll keep you hooked. I'm still wondering, though, if Stevens is still writing and where I can find info on the man."
+9995,1,Do Not Waste Your Money!,"In this narrative, Margaret Harrell claims to be enlightening the powers-that-be of the poverty, loneliness and lack of education that *some* junior enlisted wives encounter.Please. The aforementioned stereotypes about junior enlisted wives are old,old news. Even an officer's daughter/wife should have figured this out before performing extensive research(which,I'm sure, was done solely at the local trailer park) for a book that is a very sad stereotype of a very diverse group of people.Junior Enlisted wives come in all colors,shapes,sizes and ages. Many are educated, worldly,confident and motivated to succeed as wives,mothers and businesswomen. Individuals of this caliber are out there-unfortunately, the author of this rubbish chose to ignore this fact.Those of you who would like to gain knowledge of what a *real* junior enlisted wife is like should consider volunteering at the local USO as opposed to wasting an afternoon reading this book."
+9996,2,Good blow away tunes,"My first delve into pre-Darkside Floyd. Good set of tunes to get blown away to, i.e., let your mind relax. I told my kids that you don't need drugs to get high; just listen to this. Be careful playing CD while driving."
+9997,1,A Symptom of a Dying Church,"Tripe. It is difficult for me to understand the influence that such uneducated, and indeed dangerous, teachings such as Tenny can have over many Christians. For Tenny, Chasing God is not the development of a more sophisticated understanding of the relationship of God to Man. Rather, to be a 'God Chaser' is to be someone with an unhealthy addiction to the emotive experiences that are often associated with the Holy Spirit. I like to call this 'Rock Concert Christianity.' In fact, most of the same results that Tenny suggests you should see through Chasing God can be had by attending a particularly good performance by U2. But what makes this a truly terrible book is that Tenny claims, as so many other misguided preachers, the authority of Almighty God. In this, Tenny is unforgivable. Ministers of God should consider with greater seriousness the consequences of their teachings. Tenny sounds good to modern, Veggie-Taled, Christians. This is not a good thing."
+9998,1,Disappointing,"I found season one for Downton Abbey to be a real masterpiece. However, after watching season two, I was quite disappointed. Each episode and in fact, the whole of season two, came across to me as ""rushed, poorly put together, poor scripting."" Everything I loved most aboutseason one, I found lacking terribly in season two - cinematograpy, character and story development, etc.I hope Julian Fellowes and company take their time on season three and restore Downton Abbey to its original ""masterpiece"" status. Do away with these trivial sub-plots!"
+9999,1,Worst earphones ever,"Received and returned JVC ""Noise Canceling Earphones"". I haven't used any kind of earphones that tinney since the early days of the first transistor single-ear phones. The JVC is far worse. In fact, I think now that they must have been defective. I've gone back to the $3 earphones that came with my 1980's walkman."
+10000,2,Best case of mistaken identity turning out for the good!,"I saw the title and ""American Gramaphone"" and assumed in was some dreamy Mannheim Steamroller tripe. Was I ever knocked out to hear those vaguely familiar voices singing some of the best songs I've heard in years. I can't find a ""throw away"". Sleeper Train and Close To The Wind are my personal favorites while my wife favors Garden of Peace. Brian Wilson and Chip Davis didn't hurt the effort, but why this wasn't a commercial success and I had to stumble on it by mistake in 1999 is the biggest disappointment of this CD."
+10001,2,"""Publish It Now!"" is a bible of information!","This book was so easy to read, especially for someone like me who never even thought publishing a book was possible. I'm now in the process of getting my first book ready to print and I can't believe the information this book provided! It was really interesting to see other writers and artists featured on the chapter pages also... something I hadn't ever seen before. A friend, Christopher Taylor, told me about this book and said he's now publishing his second book with the help of Costa Publishing. I like that ""Publish It Now!"" gives marketing ideas, contacts and places to list your book that specialize in SELLING books, like with Amazon.com!"
+10002,2,So awesome.,"This is one of the single movies (besides the original SW trilogy) that I've owned in most possible formats - VHS, Beta, LD, DVD, and now Blu-Ray. This one seems better to me. I'm not sure why besides just the picture quality, but there are parts that seemed new to me.I haven't done any kind of in depth research as to why and I don't care to. I'm just saying that it seemed different and longer to me. Much Better! I've loved this film since I was a little kidlet and it almost felt like seeing a brand new version of it.I can't wait until they release it in hologram or direct-to-brain (DTB) format because I'll buy those too! This is just one of those films that always tears it up for me and this Blu edition is absolutely fantastic."
+10003,1,Steer Clear,"If you are intereted in no bass whatsoever, this is the unit for you.Normally, you could trust the Sony Engineers for allowing nothing but quality out the door, but this must have snuck through..."
+10004,2,The Best Book I've Ever Read,"I recently bought the Da Vinci Code about a week ago and have already finished it. The author Dan Brown ends almost every chapter with mystery making you not want to put the book down. The book leave you guessing about who ""the Teacher"" could possibly be and wondering if the main characters do find what they set out for. The end is a wonderfully shocking, I personally have never liked reading, but this book makes me want to read more. I think everyone should read this amazing book that makes you want to go on a quest of your own."
+10005,2,The best cooking gift I ever received,"My mother gave me this book 30 years ago ""So you'll never go hungry..."" It has been a constant companion ever since. It has been with me on 4 continents and I keep it with me still. It's old and tattered and had so many spills a friend's dog chewed the corner that sat in beef drippings one night. I've won awards cooking Rich Apple Pie and the Banana Nut bread never fails to sell fast at bake sales. The whole thing is so intuitive and well organized and there's something for every occasion and every ingredient. After you work with this one for a few years, you start to get a feel for HOW to cook, since all the recipes are so sensible and logical, if I can use those words. And I LOVE LOVE LOVE the fact that they specified lard and butter and flour and all those good things that are supposed to be so bad for you. Add my voice to those who are begging for a reprint."
+10006,2,Much better than the suction cup mount,"A very solid product, holds my i2 in place through all but the most aggressive cornering. We were making do with the suction cup mount that came with the i2, but found that in the winter, the suction cup frequently let go and dropped the i2 onto the dash. The friction mount is a lot better option."
+10007,2,A true diamond in the rough!,"This is a great CD, i would recomend it to anyone. The tight harmonies, great solo work (i wish there was more though) and their great versatility musicly is great to hear from a band like this. The whole CD has a Rage Against the Machine meets Suger-Ray quality to it. This is a CD every rage fan (or any one else for that matter) should check out."
+10008,2,An Insightful Peruse of Beantown,"Boston is a city that is a tourist haven. With its rich historical atmosphere as well as the accouterments of a modern-day metropolis, it would be easy to lose focus and miss out on all the city has to offer. I was impressed with the way that the video avoided this pitfall by laying out the city in a logical fashion. While it may be impossible to see all that Boston has to offer in a one week vacation, the video gave me some definite ideas about the things that would make my trip the most meaningful for me and my family. This is the beauty of the video-that the material is presented as a smörgsbord, and the viewer can choose what to consume in greater detail when they visit. The due diligence the producers paid in researching the history of Boston was much appreciated as well."
+10009,1,Not worth the money,"First let me say the seller was fast and I have no complaint about the seller. However the product is all but worthless.I purchesed there bits to drill some holes in 12x12 cermic tile to install a grab bar. We used a continues spray of water to help keep the bit cool, however the bit was dull before we finished drilling the first hole. The diamonds should have been impregnated into the metal and ran though the entire metal of the bit. It appears that the diamonds on this bit are attached with epoxy and wore off quickly."
+10010,1,Developmental Experts say these are BAD FOR BABY,"I'm going to write this on all the Exersaucers. I was considering purchasing one of these for my daughter who is 8 months old. However both a physical therapist and an occupational therapist told me that I shouldn't waste my money on one. They said that they are not good for babies because they don't encourage the proper development of the muscles and the proper development of the postures needed for standing and walking. Many times, babies who use these, even for short periods will develop bad habits such as standing on tippy toes or having their legs face the wrong direction and this can delay when they walk on their own. I know that this is tempting because of all the activities on there, but they said a playpen is much better."
+10011,2,It can't happen here ?,"Jessica Stern describes ""religious terrorism"" rationally as Islamistic Dschihad as well as grumpy Israeli settler stubbornness, and - surprisingly - she does not forget her compatriots, those Americans, who attack abortion medical centers in the name of Jesus. Looking at the current French suburb-debacle Americans mockingly like to talk of EURABIA instead of EUROPA: but of course it is not only France's problem (though the TIME titles this week ""It can't happen here""). Muslim teenagers are drawing globally the attention with never ending series of at least arson attacks. One sees, the interview, analysis and description work of Prof. Jessica Stern is aimed to the centre of the present global conflict events - no wonder that her book is top-mentioned in the German Newsmagazin DER SPIEGEL. A translation into German, Arabian or Russian certainly would be rewarding -- surely also one in French ..."
+10012,2,Great game for Mom and kids,I rented this game for the kids at first so they could play it on MY Psp. I thought they would probably have trouble playing the game since they aren't use to the PSP and are so young. They picked it up real quick. They are 5 and 6 years old and are able to navigate around very well. The only thing is is they need some help in reading what they are to do next. They love this game so much they don't want to put it down. It has been a nice purchase for the summer. When Mommy has trouble getting around Bikini Bottom my kids are there to help. I love this game too. It is addicting and alot of fun.
+10013,2,DVD features are a Hed Head's delight,"Like most of the reviewers here, I was blown away by John Cameron Mitchell's performance as Hedwig. Funny, sad, campy, reflective: If anybody had a more electrifying stage or screen presence in 2001, bring 'em on.I am writing to point out to fans of the movie/CDs that the DVD has a couple of cool features:1) The show-stopping ""Tear Me Down"" was filmed live and thus is a different version than both the original off-Broadway cast recording and, for some reason, the movie soundtrack itself. And it rocks, baby.2) The featurette on the making of Hedwig is worth the price of admission alone. It includes home video of JCM trying out the Hedwig character in a nightclub setting, mounting the musical, how the film version came to be and JCM's successors in the stage production. It is hands down the best making-of feature I have seen on a DVD."
+10014,2,Great product,"Great product; haven't had any problems with it. However, it would be MUCH more convenient if the company added some kind of drainage valve at towards the bottom. It was rather difficult to tip thing over to empty it."
+10015,1,Dont buy this game at this time,"I bought the game a local store- the PS2 wouldnt load it. i tried it in another sytem same thing. then i bought another one on Amazon.com. this was the same. After repeatred attempts and a new system it finally loaded only to have to free off an on. i dont know what eidos, lego or lucas did but you should wait until they fix the problem. i am testing the game at this moment. i dont want to give it to my son only to not have it work."
+10016,2,Almost like new and came on time,This movie is one of my favorite from the series. It explains alot about the X-men and has great graphics and acting. very pleased with this purchase :)
+10017,2,you better check this out!!,"when i listen to their album Ocean Avenue, i realised that they're great band, great music, great groove, and after seeing this DVD, i have to tell you that they will be one the hottest band on the planet, they are so tight as a band, and so energetic, and the most important thing is, GREAT SONGS, you can feel the difference between their old songs and the news, and you know they keep growing, and they songs sound great unplugged, too.(the AOL unplugged session as special feature)"
+10018,2,Good quality and easy install,Installed on my front door and looks nice and has a solid feel. The bottom of the handle has a screw that goes all the way through which is different than many I have seen. They give you a plug to cover the screw head on the inside which some people may not like.
+10019,1,Don't buy this,"It is so disappointing!! It only has ONE song and it's kind of like a music box type sounding song...it chimes. And the song is less than 10 seconds long and then it just repeats OVER and OVER. There are only 3 lights that flash and they are just little squares blinking. It's not entertaining to my baby and it was a waste of 30.00.. maybe for 15 it might be worth it but I'm not even sure of that.And the ""play mat"" is not a mat at all... it's an extreamly sheer peice of fabric."
+10020,2,best book ever,I read this book for a book report for my reading class. It was awesome! The gripping plot keeps you craving for more. I loved it! I would reccomend this book to anyone who ebjoys reading about the Holocaust. Another book like this is Daniel's Story.
+10021,2,An overview of Botvinnik!,"A very detailed overview of Botvinnik's career covering his ""Golden Years"". The book covered the period between 1948 to 1970 whereby he became World Champion and went through the trials and tribulations of losing the championship and winning it back in a rematch on two occasions. This book clearly showed the mental strength of a great player - of his ability to stand up after falling down! The games demonstrated the maturity of Botvinnik over the years. Similar strategic ideas were referenced to earlier games in the book or to his other masterpieces. The analyses were brief and straight to the point. It may be a little difficult for beginners to understand the notes without the guidance of a chess player with considerable strength. This book is most suitable for an intermediate and master strength player. The brief introduction given by Bernard Cafferty at the beginning of the book serves little purpose. It is not Botvinnik's story that is interesting but his games!"
+10022,2,The Outsiders,"I loved this book. It was interesting, intriguing, and suspenful. It has a great moral that many people should take to heart and if they did the world would be a much better place. You will fall in love, as I have, with Soda, Ponyboy, Johnny, and many more. The book has one part when you can kind of tell that it was written by a 16 year old pupil (and it was when it was written) because the story kind of penetrated the set stage and was somewhat hrad to follow. It is a really great book, and I recommend to everyone, especially people who do not have a high self-esteem. I need to shut up now so that I don't give anything away, but this book will always stay gold."
+10023,2,Decent,"Not as good as the first season, but it's very Decent. Love the leads of this season! Jessica Lange is fantastic!"
+10024,2,Many different options,My mom has been on a no salt diet for about a year now and we are always looking for new recipes. I bought her this book for Christmas and she really enjoys it.
+10025,1,Disappointed,"I bought this simply because it has Rex Smith in it. But I ""WASTED"" my money. Think twice......"
+10026,1,Scary and disturbed,"This is a poorly written and very disturbing book that shows the end result of mind control. The author still believes Jones was a ""messiah"". She still believes that ""government"" forces did the killing at the Port Kaituma airstrip. She believes all was great in Jonestown until the Concerned Relatives and the ""media"" stuck there nose into it"
+10027,2,Great Companion to a Classic,"This book is similar to the original Brown Bear book, with illustrations of panda bear, bald eagle, water buffalo, spider monkey, green sea turtle, macaroni penguin, sea lion, red wolf, whooping crane, black panther, and moon-faced dreaming child.The illustrations are beautiful--Carle's signature watercolor-collage style. While Brown Bear's illustrations show each animal against stark white backgrounds, Panda Bear's illustrations feature them against bold backgrounds. (My sensitive younger toddler found the red wolf and the black panther illustrations a little scary, so we skip those pages for now.)Although this book doesn't lend itself to teaching basic colors and animal sounds the way that the original does, it is a good way to teach the concept of endangered species to younger children. Overall, a great companion to a classic!"
+10028,1,Shipped too early,"I found the graphics primitive and character movement way too slow.I have a medium to high-end gaming machine and Ididn't bother to complete the first level. Graphics might be OK for you, but I think they shipped this game way too early."
+10029,2,John Entwhistle bio DVD,"If you love The Who or bass guitar you'll probably like this DVD about the life and music of John Entwhistle, one of the greatest musicians ever to pick up a bass guitar and the cornerstone of The Who's sound.Of particular interest to bassists are the musical clips which have been tastefully remixed to emphasize Entwhistle's playing.A friend of mine loaned me this disc and after watching it I ordered my own copy. I'm not usually much of one for rock biographies but this one's a keeper!"
+10030,2,LOVE IT!!!,"This is the second of the triology: Champion Dreams, Horsez and Petz Horsez 2. The game is quite fun, as much as Champion Dreams and the main characters are invovled. I bought this 3 years ago and I'm still playing, btw I'm 46 years old."
+10031,1,Worked great for awhile,"Love the look and the sound of an old fashion ring. But after a few weeks the rings would come in, but we could not hear the caller nor could they hear us. This has happened to me on two of the same model phone."
+10032,1,This Game is Really Bad!,"I bought this game based on a promotional e-mail from Amazon.com I received because I pre-ordered the Episode I movie........... I was a sucker and bought it. I HATE IT! It is hard to play and no fun at all. If you haven't bought it yet, don't!"
+10033,1,Fat Lip,"My father bought this for my daughter, he thought she would like it, and she did. But the first time she caught it she put it in her mouth (as all 10 month olds do with everything) her lip was sucked in and caused her to bleed and get a fat lip from it. Not great for the age range little tikes reccomends, better for older kids."
+10034,2,tension tamer,when im having a rough day i like to listen to this cd and india irie's other cds to kind of chill me out! it has alot of soul. you can sit back with a mellow drink and just listen!!!
+10035,1,Nonamplified antenna,"I guess it is my fault that I didn't realize this was a non -amplified antenna. As such it is little better than the wire antennas that hang off the back of your receiver. I can not distinguish the difference between signals with or without these antennas. Without amplification they do nothing to pull in weak signals. This item is very overpriced for what it is. Seller shipped very quicking and I can't find fault with the seller, it just isn't a very good product."
+10036,1,what's the secret??,"I have been using Nailtiques faithfully for over a month.....WHY does it peel??? Everyday I have to remove & start all over again. I have purchased all the proper products to enhance it's performance. Yes, my nails grow but are peeling a lot! There has to be a secret to why this is happening. I do wash & dry my nail & go by the book for application.Anybody have any answers??? I am not pleased at all w/this product.I have now switched to ""PINK GEL COAT."" Not peeling, is a thicker product. It is ""gel"" so it does allow nails to be protected. I shall now try & compare."
+10037,2,Fantastic Sony Walkman,"I received my Sony Walkman today that is capable of fitting in Wristband case for easy use and convenience. For its small size, it has great sound & construction quality; range & channel pick up; digital tuning; built in clock; & 5 preset radio stations at a fantastic price."
+10038,1,Cracked Insert - TWICE,"My 41 year old Sears crockpot is still going strong, but I was tired of the avocado and gold mushroom motif!! And, quite often, when cooking for a crowd, I have two crockpots going at once. I decided to splurge for a new one and chose the Hamilton Beach Stay or Go Slow Cooker. While I was at it, I also purchased one for my niece. My crock cracked last week during use. When I called my niece to tell her, she said that hers had cracked several months ago. Apparently, there is nowhere to get a replacement crock. I will NEVER buy another one of this brand!"
+10039,2,Sweet Veggies:),"This was a sweet, little VT to watch with my kids. I thought the 'Babysitter' tale was cute and taught a valuable lesson. Sweet Petunia was adorable, if not a bit goofy at times. We totally think that Larry just stole the show on this VT!! The 'serf' music was so catchy too! I am glad that this was more Veggie Tale-esque than another recent release. My kids love this one so far, and so it is on constant replay."
+10040,1,Too much for this listener,"Apparently a lot of people are really into this disc. That is great.There was a lot of hype surrounding this disc, so I picked it up. Don't get me wrong, these guys have chops pouring out of every orifice, but I can't remember a lyrically good song on the disc, or even a chorus for that matter. This disc would have been somewhat interesting with no vocals, but the vocals just throw a wrench into everything.If you are into REALLY technical metal, I assume you will go to bed with this disc under your pillow. If you are more of a progressive metal fan, like me, pick up Kamelot's new album, it has the cheese factor, but it is very decent."
+10041,2,excellent buy,"Just received this gate to see how it would work and it's perfect. I'm actually ordering another one for a different doorway. We have purchased the first one for the steps which are 39"" wide. This was the max opening listed for the gate, but it fits solid without any problem. The baby has even trying rattling the bars, but the gate still didn't move. Our older kids (ages 5 & 9)have no problem opening the gate by themselves and it swings shut again so we don't have to worry about it accidentally being left open. If you think you might need to move the gate frequently, then this is not the gate to use. It is held in place by pressure and would need to be reassembled each time you take it down. Love the gate and would recommend it to anyone who is tired of stepping over one all the time."
+10042,2,One of the best!,"A powerful, emotional score that I find myself listening to on a regular basis while working at the keyboard. The incredible opening theme managing to be both stirring and sad at the same time. Most of the tracks are memorable, and you'll quickly find yourself recalling favorite scenes from the film, which is after all the goal of a successful soundtrack album.A perfect addition to any film music collection, and an absolute must-have for anyone who enjoyed the movie."
+10043,2,Beautiful illustrations and timeless stories,"I took a chance when I bought this book. I like hardcover books with beautiful illustrations and this definitely meets both criteria. I grew up with Birbal stories and they have a very fond place in my heart. He is the clever court council whom the evil ministers are trying to get rid of, but with his wit, he manages, not only to foil their attempts, but also impress Akbar the king with his clever mind. The stories are just like I remember them, but what makes this book priceless is the illustrations. I believe pictures help us transport ourselves into the time in which the stories are set and the stories remain with us through our lives. I am sure my son will love this book as much as I have."
+10044,2,I like this radio,"I bought this radio for my 30 minute walk to work. It's serving its purpose well. I threw out the dual earbud headphones for a single ear bud so that I can still hear what's going on around me as I walk. I only listen to 2 or 3 stations, so I use the favorites button. I can operate all of the buttons that I need while the radio is in the sleeve pocket of my jacket. Reception is fine. Battery consumption is good too -- I'm on my third set of batteries in six months with about 60 minutes use per day. It's compact, stylish and it works. I like it."
+10045,1,Horrible Movie!,"I saw this movie on the ABC Family channel last year....love their play of all holiday movies during Christmas-time. My sister and husband watched it with me, and we completely rolled our eyes and made fun of the entire thing. Plot is ridiculous, and makes you want to beat your head against the wall. I've always been a fan of both Melissa and Mario, but the acting in this story was just horrendous. The only reason we finished is because my sister insisted. We all thought it would get better. It didn't. I'd rate it a zero if possible! Complete waste of your holiday movie watching time!"
+10046,1,2 star,Had to give it 2 stars because I had to fast forward the second half. Just didn't have the patience. But had some interesting parts.
+10047,1,"Great Show, but...","Okay I have been looking forword to being able to return to Northern Exposure for a long Time. I was never able to watch the show when it originaly aired (probably because I was 4 or 5 when it came out), but my mother watched it so when i saw it on Hallmark I chekced it out. Evne though i only watched about 10 episodes before it was pulled I feel in love with the characters and the town.But Universal has made a major mistake. Other Studios (Fox, Warner Brothers, Columbia) are releasing Season sets with 20 to 30 episodes at 60 dollars a piece (at most stores 40), but Universal is planning on giving us 8 episodes at the same price! Thats a Little expensive. If it had been the complete First and Second Season it would be another story, but its not. Bad judgement called on Universals part.But for most It might be worth the extra price to return to quirkiest town this side of Stars Hallow."
+10048,2,This family touches your heart...,"Frank McCourt is able to touch your heart and your soul by sharing his family tragedy with us. His family (yes, disfuntional) lived through hard times. But they were consoled by their belief in the church and in family. We all put too much stock in unworthy people at times, but when you are born into this life and it is either sink or swim, you learn to swim and to make do with the worst.I have a special dislike of their father as he was a small and selfish man. But then again, it was a time when most of their country were ""on the dole"".....how were they to know different? At least the boys grew up and moved away from the poverty and made their lives back in America. I adore Frank McCourt's writing and hope he continues."
+10049,1,Trendy format spoils scholarship.,"In my mind, the words ""scholarship"" and ""color print"" don't mix. For centuries scholars have found their way through page after page of black and white (perhaps dark brown and light brown from time to time), and it seems odd that suddenly we have happened upon a better way - black and BLUE and white.That's cool for a travel dictionary you're trying to read in a taxi, or when pointing out some turn-of-phrase to a fellow tourist. It's flashy and stylish. And as long as you don't have to look at it for more than, say, twenty seconds at a time, I suppose it would do.But to me the name ""Oxford"" means ""if you're serious, this is for you."" The name ""Duden"" is likewise highly esteemed.So why is a dictionary made for the studious person being marketed to the tourist? I'm sure the scholarship is excellent, but I really wish it were in black and white. If there were a comparable edition in the traditional format I would buy it right away."
+10050,1,Decent Thriller,"This is essentially two books; an espionage story set largely in Portugal during WWII and a police procedural in contemporary Portugal. The WWII story sets the stage for the contemporary mystery. Wilson is a competent writer and each story is handled fairly well. These two threads are brought together at the end in a needlessly complicated conclusion. There is a good deal of gratuitous, both in the conventional sense and in the sense that it doesn't really advance the plot, violence and sex. Books with repeated scenes of rape are usually not very appealing."
+10051,1,Aggrivated Dad,"Halfway through this movie I gave my kids the option of finishing the movie or getting a bedtime story... they opted for the bedtime story.I wouldn't surprised at all if I this strange movie causes a couple nights of nightmares... this one will go down in the ""WTF Hall of Fame"" right beside Coraline and Ponyo (although Ponyo was actually entertaining, primarily because of the horrible parenting exhibited in the movie).p.s. Amazon, please allow zero stars as an option."
+10052,2,awesome unit and i have owned them all,"This is hands down the best compact unit on the market. Unlike all 7" models, it does not have a huge cumbersome battery. All important remote functions are available on the unit itself. The picture quality is outstanding and it is virtually impossible to make the unit skip. BUY THIS MODEL...YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT!!"
+10053,1,Worst required text I have ever had,Lousy and sad for a 2nd edition. Examples are few and far between despite other reviewer's comments. Our professor has been kind enough to keep a log of the errors students have identified. There is a solutions manual for this but many of the answers contain errors as well. The only purpose for choosing this book is it covers both Continuous and Discrete analysis. This book will not even be a good reference later so hopefully I can find someone to take it off my hands.
+10054,1,Loved the picture but not the material,This poster was not overall worth it. I loved the picture but not so much the material of the poster.
+10055,1,Here we go again,"Do you ever feel that buying upgrades are a waste of money. Well, this one is a waste of your money. I bought into the hype that you can locate ATM's anywhere in the country and the maps were updated.If your looking for an ATM in Maine, Alabama, Vermont, Wisconsin, and other states, don't bother. Streets and Trips show there are no ATM's in most of the United States. Canada has a few.The Maps are not updated as well. A seven year old neighborhood still isn't showing up in Streets and Trips. Other programs and the internet map sites have had our neighborhood for a few years.If you have an old copy of Street and Trips or MapPoint, continue to use and save your money. I guess this is how a company can continue making a billion dollars a month without creating anything new. Lets hope in a few years Streets and Trips will be brought up to date and include what the marketing guys tell us."
+10056,1,U.S. Maple for the neophyte?,"Answering my own question, not really. They say this is most listenable U.S. Maple album, meaning most straightforward, but do we want a straightened out version of this notoriously contorted band? Al Johnson is still one of the most inspired ""singers"" in rock, but with drummer pat samson gone, some of these songs plod when you want them to jump and lurch. If you want to get in to this band, start by picking up sang phat editor and talker. In other words don't wade in, dive!"
+10057,1,Not Purchasing,"I've read several reviews regarding the issue of ""Ultraviolet Digital Copy."" As it turns out, you need an application to play your digital copy (DC) called Flixter. The million dollar question that everyone is asking is if you're still able to play it on your iPod, other devices. The answer is no. To play your DC, you need to be online. What's the point? If I was on a plane, train etc with no internet access, how am I to enjoy a movie that I paid for? As the number of combo movie purchases are made, Flixter (DC) offers a nasty alternative and I hope Flixter dwindles."
+10058,1,topcell 14.4 porter cable replacement battery,"Ordered two topcell 14.4 batteries when original PC batteries quit after five years. When they arrived I put them on charge. The ""defective"" light on charger flashed the whole cycle during charge. When charged, one drove 17 1 1/4"" drywall screws and quit. Second one drove a 3/4 spade bit about 3/16"" into a pine board and quit. Sent them back and got two more with same identical results as the first two. Borrowed a 14.4 PC battery and put it on charge, it charged up normally proving that there is nothing wrong with charger. These topcell batteries are junk and not worth carrying home."
+10059,2,logitech trackman wheel,This is better than any mouse I have ever used and I hate going back to the old style mouse I use at work. I wish they had this available as a high performance gaming mouse. I bought one of those high dollar ones and I don't like it nearly so much as the trackman wheel.
+10060,2,Correction,"Contrary to what someone says above:""Fly Jefferson Airplane, get you there on time"" was not what gave the Airplane their name, it was Donovan's tribute to them after being in San Francisco. Four stars only because that's what i thought of it at the time. Really good, but sometimes too precious. Worth knowing if you don't. Unquestioned classic."
+10061,2,Instrumental Heaven,"This is an incredibly eclectic collection of instrumental hits (and non-hits) released between 1957 and 1964. If you're in the mood for guitar solos only, or surf music only, or organ music only, then you're out of luck here--it's all mixed together! And I can't stop listening to it! You want to hear the Champs do ""Tequila?"" OK, it comes right after the Jimmy Dorsey Orchestra and chorus doing ""So Rare,"" which follows jazz-great Cozy Cole's awesome but really hard to find ""Topsy Part II."" This 30-cut essential CD finishes with a couple of Lonnie Mack tunes that prove he is one the R & B guitar masters of this or any era. If you like this CD, go ahead and get Volumes 2 through 4. All of them contain a really smart mix of familiar tunes and stuff you've never heard before."
+10062,1,A Feast For Crows,"I will not purchase any more used books in the future through Amazon.Com. The book that I ordered was based on a picture [shown on the website] of the original cover from the first printing, at least that was what I thought I was buying; perhaps I did not read the small print. As a first time buyer I thought I was buying from Amazon directly. I am very disappointed."
+10063,2,WOW,WOW This is like so like THE BEST video ever!!!!!! I love it. Like more than bugs and snakes. Ew!
+10064,2,Good,Not my favorite of the Janine French books but a very good book to own as part of the collection.
+10065,1,Very flimsy side clamps are designed to break.,"The could a good product but it has a fatal design flaw which make it a complete ripoff. The side fasteners or clamps break within a year or so. My thinking is this is their way of creating demand for new juicers. This juicer is not a sealed unit. As others have said pulp sprays out on the counter if you're not extremely careful. I'm on my third juicer from them and I will not buy another. Yes, I have repaired them before but who wants to worry about that when you pay 250 for a juicer. I paid 250 at my local health food store. I believe in giving some of my business to local stores I believe are providing good products for the community even if I can find it cheaper online."
+10066,1,Useless,"This is a terrible case for my MZ-RH10. The case holds my md player perfectly, and nothing else. There isn't enough room within the case to also have my earphone plugged up. When it is plugged up, the case won't close. That's just the dumbest thing ever.Sony should wise up."
+10067,2,Great Comb,"Great Comb, well made, nice small size when folded, appears to be pretty strong. A good buy for the reasonable price."
+10068,2,Another Great pair.,Another great pair of shoes. Same seller as before. Arrived on time and fit great. Love them. Very comfortable. I recomend this shoe to all who love a casual shoe.
+10069,2,Excellent,Im a skater and this booked made me relize alot of things about rodney i didnt ever know. The main thing was about his father about how he always fights with him. Rodney is also like a super genious and a very religious guy. He is one of my favorite skaters and now this book had made me respect his work ethic and ability to hold on even when it gets tough.
+10070,2,THE BRUTALITY OF NATIONS: THE NIGERIAN-BIAFRAN CIVIL WAR,This book captures the tragedy of a war that the world still knows very little about...the cost in human lives that in the end was about resource control...oil. What the Uzokwe family and the Igbos endured represent the triumph of the human spirit. A must read for everyone because there cannot be peace without justice.
+10071,2,Any work by Bendis is worth your time.,"OK, the title of my review basically says it all. I've never read any Bendis book or comic that didn't entertain me enormously. ""FIRE"" may be Bendis' 1st work but you'd never know. It's filled with all the great dialogue and ""speak like people speak"" style of writing that Bendis is associated with. I've read in other reviews, people not being all that crazy about his artwork in this book, but if you're a fan of ALIAS from Marvel comics, the style is very similar to that books artist, Michael Gaydos. The only negative to speak of is the usual crappy editing and lack of spell checking that seems to go along with all of Bendis' independent works. I read somewhere that his wife is his ""editor"". He might want to start hiring out of the family:) I wouldn't call ""FIRE"" Bendis' greatest work (try ALIAS or his current run on DAREDEVIL) but it is definitely worth picking up if you are a fan of his."
+10072,1,Does not fit 2003 Ford Explorer,"Unfortunately these lifts supports DO NOT fit the hood of a 2003 Ford Explorer XLT. The fitment is for pre-2001, the title and description of the hood lift is incorrect"
+10073,1,Broke the third time used,"I liked this product a lot until it broke on the third use when I attempted to slice miniature carrots. Needless to say, a waste of money."
+10074,2,Great if you want no social life.,"Electronic Arts had really outdone themselves this time with the creation of Black and White - but the game is very long and mildly redundant. The game play is rather original, and if you have a good computer with at least a 32mb video card, you can see some really decorative graphics. If you want to own this game to play once in a while (or for multiplayer LAN) then that's fine, but don't buy this game if you plan on beating it in a week or two (or a month at that). Bottom line: Fun game, very original, but I just didn't have the attention span to make it through the long haul."
+10075,1,"It does work, but very slow",I just got this and was curious if it would work since my printer manufacturer said they could not guarantee that it would. It does work but very slow as I just read on this site. I may return it. Like most people I was looking for a way to not have to keep a computer online to print but I don't know if this speed is worth it. Waiting multiple minutes for a photo is not work it. Printing text is fine however.
+10076,2,Tracing Strauss's influence,"Norton's book is a an attempt to trace the influence of Strauss and Straussianism in the U.S. Academy and in the imperialist politics that govern the new U.S. interventionism abroad. It is a refreshing, immensely readable account of the legacy that Leo Strauss's thought and work has had over the course of the past 40-50 years. Unlike other commentators, Norton does not diabolicize Strauss, yet nonetheless points to the aspects of his thought that opened it up to the conservative and neo-conservative embrace. She demonstrates how Strauss's thought (and other conservative thinkers) have been instrumentalized and transformed by the neoconservative revolution and its hegemonic project."
+10077,1,Do not Buy,Product crashes and crashes. I thought it was my machine. read the pinnacle forums look for export error: real time. If you do not trust me. do your homework. pinnacle has issues.
+10078,2,Stop thinking about it and read this book NOW!,"This is one of the most amazing stories of perseverance and triumph I have ever read. I couldn't put it down until finished and then I wanted to hop the next plane to Pakistan to lend a hand. Greg Mortenson's story had a profound effect on me personally, so I thank him for sharing ""Three Cups of Tea"" with the world. If there's one thing you do this year, you MUST read this book! It's engaging and very well written, enabling the reader to travel with Greg as he struggles with in-country politics and local traditions, with the highs and lows of fundraising and with the triumphs of success ... one school at a time. This world needs more Greg Mortensons if we're ever to find peace."
+10079,1,Don't bother,I bought this as a Deal of the Day item and didn't pay very much for it. I still sent it back because its FM transmission to the car radio was so bad. I tried every FM channel on my car radio and still got an unacceptable level of static and noise -- and I don't really get hung up about sound quality. Never tried it as an FM receiver. I only wanted it to play my ipod songs and podcasts on the car radio. Even at half price this was not worth it.
+10080,1,Immigrant slanders immigrants,"You can see Michelle Malkin at Fox News bashing Mexicans, Arabs and other minorities. Michelle is an immigrant herself, and she believes that there is a big difference between legal and illegal immigrants. Not one human is illegal on this world. America is build by immigrants and their children. If all illegal immigrants would leave the US, the economy would collaps.So what is Michelle's problem with illegal immigrants? This is a pychological phenomenon; once self legally inside these people are afraid to share with others. I wish her good luck. If you hate foreigners you should buy this book."
+10081,1,Thoroughly Disappointing,"The number of books out there dedicated to using Flash as an animation medium can be counted on one hand, and most of those aren't very good. Despite the title, this book doesn't really qualify as an animation book.Much of the book covers non-animation topics like typography and video while animation topics like anticipation get less page space than the history of True Type fonts or noting when Nintendo added the Power Pad to its NES bundle.Even the off-topic of creating Flash content for mobile phones, which seems to be author's area of expertise, doesn't get covered very well.There's also an abundance of typos, clunky wordings and out of date text apparently copied from previous versions.All in all, I'm very angry I spent $30 for such a poor book."
+10082,1,Not worth it...not even a little bit,"I found this DVD at a thrift store and bought it for $5 (for Lap Dance and Hip Hop). I figured it couldn't be that bad...it was a waste of $5. Like one other person commented, I couldn't even get through the whole Hip Hop DVD because it was so cheesy. What a waste of time."
+10083,2,Author's comments,"Thanks to you all! I can't believe after all these years that people still have such kind things to say about my KISS. Yes, Franz was a little over the top and there was a little too much screaming, but that was the time and the style. I'll do better next time. I'm in the process of writing a sequel but I was going to follow Casey, not Simon. Is that a problem? Thanks to you all. Lee Weathersby"
+10084,1,Ditto on the Prosine Inverter / Charger,"I'll second the previous review on the Inverter / Charger unit. I've had one on our boat for about 2 years now, and it's been nothing but a headache.It doesn't completely crash, but we frequently arrive at the dock to discover that it has shut itself down. It works again when we switch it off and then on again, but it is very, very annoying to have to do this almost every time we go out sailing (if not more than once).This product clearly has some big problems - indeed, the reason I found this product on Amazon is that I've started to look for a replacement. Does anyone have any ideas??"
+10085,2,Best of his kind,"I've got two other Paul Burch albums, and they're both good. But this is the best one he's done and it's terrific. There's somthing down-homey and direct about it that makes it his most personal project, even if it is inspired by the novel ""Jim the Boy.""The tunes are great, I like the instrumentals as well as the songs. If you like roots music, try this."
+10086,2,NICE sound!,This is a great simple piece of equipment that looks and sounds great. The thing with this is that it only has one AUX output and the cables are cumbersome.
+10087,1,and don't buy this one either,See the review for CD of Shakespeare Musick (Musicians of the Globe). My nonreturnablecopies will donated to my local library. Don't decide to buy this product unless you'veheard the entire CD.
+10088,2,great value,I have loved this product - but had to do some modification to make it work on my bike. I have a Trek Hybrid and the bars are just to thin for the clamps. We created some slip on plastic covers to help with this. Other then that we have loved these.
+10089,2,Another good effort from Queen of Country,"This is the first album Reba recorded after falling in love with her manager, Narvel Blackstock, and her happiness shows through on this 16th studio album (hence the title). This is also the first studio album by a female artist to remain at number one on the Billboard Charts for an unprecedented 13 weeks. It contains the hits ""Cathy's Clown,"" ""Little Girl,"" and ""Walk On."" Other highlights of the album include the self-penned ""It Always Rains on Saturdays,"" and ""Am I the Only One Who Cares,"" two of Reba's best song-writing efforts, and the up-tempo, feel-good ""A New Love."" The one thing absent is a trademark Reba heart-wrenching ballad, unless you count ""Cathy's Clown."" I guess that's what falling in love will do to you."
+10090,2,Great Dog Crate,This dog crate is wonderful for my 90 pound pit bull terrier. It is very sturdy and large enough for him to fit in comfortably. I would definitely recommend this crate to any large breed dog owners.
+10091,1,Bad trip,"This thing was horrible it barely had anything to do with Timothy Leary, I was realy let down and if you are a true Leary fan dont check it out, its not worth the time, but if your some wannabe acid head then this movie is for you."
+10092,2,Chicks dig the car,"(3.5/5 stars) Val Kilmer gives it a go as the Dark Knight, this time with Joel Schumacher at the helm. Both of those decisions turn out to be poor, with Kilmer seriously miscast and Schumacher bringing corny humor and neon lights to the party. ""It's the car, right? Chicks dig the car."" Come on, neither Bruce Wayne nor Batman would utter these inane lines! And what is the deal with Schumacher's obsession with Batman's body parts (nipples, butt, etc.)?! No! No! No! There are some good aspects of the movie, however, especially the roots of Robin's origin and Jim Carrey's energetic performance as the Riddler. Neon aside, the film features some decent visuals and action. Nicole Kidman and Drew Barrymore are always pleasant to watch, though this is worth watching for Jom Carrey's performance alone."
+10093,1,acurate and complete but it will seriousely put you to sleep,"I read part of chapter 1 and didnt read any more.. extremely dull. Good for reference,not for reading"
+10094,2,Very pleasant and relaxing,"I actually got this CD from a friend who was listening to it in his office. I was like ""Hmmm... What is this?"" I absolutely love the smoothness of the sound, the way it just relaxes me and lulls me to sleep when I've had a rough day. I actually had Francesca stuck in my head for a whole weekend."
+10095,1,Fake,"I don't know a Prada from a Piranha, but my girlfriend certainly does. I bought this bag for her as a surprise present, and although she appreciated the gesture, she has informed me this bag is most certainly not a Prada. What a waste of money."
+10096,2,This book is very important to understand how company are sued.,The story of truth is well written and the author living through what companies that are doing good have suffered by the hands of greedy people to stop letting people know that out there is something that can and does help them.
+10097,1,eh,"Honestly, I've had the book for over a month and i keep trying to get into it - NOT HAPPENING. I had read other books by Holly and I love the paranormal romances. However, this held nothing in it for me. Try her erotica for a good read. For paranormal - read Sherrilyn Kenyon!"
+10098,2,Awesome Deep Fryer,"This is a great deep fryer. Has worked great everytime I have used it. Anybody that has had problems with it, has obviously not read the directions or not followed them. A little common sense when using this or any deep fryer, goes a long way. The people that had problems with it overflowing, need to lower the food into the hot oil slowly (which is true for any deep fryer).This is a wonderful deep fryer, you won't be sorry."
+10099,2,Humphrey the Lost Whale,"A wonderful story of nature helping humans, help nature. Humphrey helped focus on the wonder of the seas for just a little while. A great read for children just starting to appreciate books."
+10100,1,think about it,I bought this because I want to weld aluminum but as soon as I opened it and tryed it. It didn't work had to call the company they was no help other then gave me a address to go get it checked out which is 3miles away its been over 3 weeks already and finally they said they couldn't find parts for it because they don't make these modals anymore and till this day I haven't recived anything this set my work so behind
+10101,1,An embarrassment to the Frigidaire name,"After only two years, the pump failed and needs to be replaced at a cost of $300. That pretty much meets my criteria for a piece of junk. There will be no more Frigidaire appliances in our home."
+10102,1,Multiple Problems- not worth it,"We bought this fountain only about a year ago and have completely stopped using it because it was such a pain to keep working. After about a month of working the water reservoir stopped draining, even when completely full. We tried everything to get it to drain, but eventually just decided to take the reservoir out and manually fill it everyday. For most of the year then we have been just filling it a couple times a day, which was annoying, especially when the pump would start sucking air in the middle of the night. After one of these middle of the night episodes, my husband unplugged it and refuses to use it anymore. I would never recommend this pet water fountain to anyone and was very disappointed with the whole thing. Only half of my cats wanted to use it anyway."
+10103,1,Thoroughly disappointed,"I waited 3 years to order this quilt frame as I pictured it like in the picture. It arrived in pieces without the hardware. They sent the hardware. I struggled to put the frame together piece by piece when I had a few spare moment. Finally I was ready for the last step with the wheels only to discover I was missing some more parts. I also discovered that every time I would want to change the width, I would have to reinstall the rods. I read the directions for actually putting my quilt on the frame and was also disappointed to learn I don't have any bungie cords. Totally frustrated, I put the frame away with the parts. I haven't decided if I will try to get the last pieces or not. I just may have to chalk it up to money down the drain and avoid this company at all costs."
+10104,2,He Desperately wants to make love to a school boy...,I sincerely believe that this is Jim Carrey's comic genious at its best! Filled with 'one-liners' and laughs all the way to the end! Hillarious!!
+10105,1,It Stinks!!!,"I work in a pizzaria, and we have about 6 of these. The holes are nice in essence but there's a problem with leakage. If you make a good pizza, you don't want all the flavor to drip out on to the floor, we learned the hard way, don't buy these.On a good note, you can spin the pans on your finger thanks to the hole in the middle, maybe you can break a guiness record."
+10106,1,50 Cent Is The HUSTLA,Well of course this album is suppose to be bad. 50 Cent has already made his riches off his first album. He knows that he has drew in enough hype to sell his records no matter how terrible they are and he's going to use that to his advantage. People need to realize that the music industry is corrupted. Music has become nothing more then a money making scheme that diminishes people. You think 50 really cares what people think of this album? I don't think so. Obviosuly he doesnt care about the album because it's trash. He is getting paid regardless and he will continue to get paid because he has someone else always promosing him this and that if he keeps doing what he do.
+10107,2,Uplifiting read,"Unlike the Mitford books, Gulley asks the question, what is faith without testing? The characters portrayed here ring true and earnest, similar to those in Katherine Valentine's Dorsetville series. Keep writing. I'll keep reading!"
+10108,1,Harmless,"Meh. It was fine for what it's worth. I wasn't all that impressed with the story and I'm not overly fond of the diary format, though I'll admire it when it's done well. This... wasn't done well.Predictible story, you pretty much know what is going to happen from the beginning. Still, it had it's good moments."
+10109,2,Fun Flick,"OK--so it's not a great film theatrically--who cares? This is one of the few films out there that fulfills that need to see the great outdoors. Sadly, Hollywood is pathetic when it comes to making movies about outdoor adventure and the common ""Joe"" (except for ""The Edge"", ""The River Wild"" and ""Cliffhanger"" to name a few). The classic 80's soundtrack featuring The Cult, Bruce Hornsby, and others make it even better... This movie is a part of my childhood memory, and for a long time was impossible to get, because it was out of print on VHS. I was so excited to learn it was being released on DVD with new packaging. I will definitely be buying it."
+10110,1,BAD PICTURES,"THIS BOOK IS ONE OF THE WORST FAIRIE BOOKS I HAVE EVER READ. NOT ONLY IS THE WRITING HORRIBLE, BUT SO ARE THE PICTURES."
+10111,1,The day trip-hop died...,"People ordering this should know that Skye, the singer of the past Morcheeba albums, is not on this record. The two men who started the band got a new singer, who just isn't as special, and now the band sounds like a lot of other bands (unfortunately). With Skye gone they just don't stand out from the rest. :-("
+10112,2,My son's most favorite teether!,"This is the best teether by far! My son got it when he was about 4 months old, and has loved it from day one! He's 19 months old now, and still loves to chew on it and play with it. He has always preferred this teether over any of his others, and my favorite thing about it is that it goes in the washer and dryer just like any of his other blankets! We love it so much, it's on my baby registry for our next baby! Highly recommended!!"
+10113,1,"They're greasy, fragile, and misshapen. But I guess they're cheap.","So this is my first box of paintballs. But compared to my friends, they pretty much suck. They're not at all dry, some have dents in them, and about 1/20 balls will split. I guess they're cheap, but it would be difficult to convince me to buy these again. I'm not even really sure there were 2000 paintballs in the box. Perhaps I could be coerced into buying more."
+10114,1,Starting out,"This is a good place to start if you're in any way interested in Romanian culture as Creanga and Eminescu are Romanian cultural legends. As usual, though the translations are good, the originals are always best, as you would know if you've read works by any great translated writer.Creanga specialised in stories for children but these stories are also allegorical, so subtle that children don't notice but adults will. I remember his stories firing up my imagination and I have a purse with two coins.Eminescu is, in my opinion, the greatest of the Romantics because he had so much more to say and today he is more or less ignored by the West. If you go to visit his home there will be no one there but the guide because Romanians are not aware that tourism can be their greatest strength."
+10115,1,Worst intro to string theory ever written,This book is little more than an incoherent compilation of research papers. It is worse than useless.
+10116,2,When Already?,"Like others here, I'm wondering if the final seasons of one of the most durable, laugh-out-loud sit-coms of all timewill ever be released. I bought Season 1 for a song when Borders went out of business,expecting a series I loved at the time to have dated badly. It hadn't.A great cast, with fine, funny writers and performed (I believe) before a live audienceI quickly caught up and, like the rest of you, have a feeling that I've pre-ordereda box-set that, inexplicably, will never be released. When already? Ever?"
+10117,1,Do not buy,Cheap construction. Extremely bad design changing print cartridges. Every HP product I've ever purchased has been sub-standard. Salesman said this one was soooo good & I bought it against my better judgement. No HPs ever again.
+10118,1,blues highway,"book arrived in good condition. I enjoyed reading it, and then I gave it to my wife. she cound not put it down. Great novel - - - great author."
+10119,1,below average product,"This product can easily be replaced by other mild cleaning products for your hardwood floors. It seems like watered down windex and mild dish soap in a spray bottle could replace it.On the other hand, the REPLENISHER offered by Bona is a fanatasic product to refresh the luster and shine to your hardwood floors."
+10120,1,couldn't hate these wipes more.,"I'm very.... i mean VERY frustraed with these wipes. If you have a wipe warmer FORGET THEM cause they dry up soooooooo fast! they are thin and ugh. I hate them I hate their smell and their texture and they are SO thin in comparison to huggies naturals! I'll NEVER buy these again. I'm so pissed that I got the bulk pack! Oh well, at least I'll go through them quickly since it takes 3 wipes to do the same job it only took 1 huggies wipe to do!"
+10121,1,Yawn. Should have been a lot shorter.,"This book was OK. Would be fine for a long, long plane ride. But, they story kind of dragged, and the ending was very ho-hum. At times I thought the writing was very nice and descriptive, but for the most part I slogged through the book cuz I heard it was so good."
+10122,2,"Yes, another (redundant?) 5-star review","I'd forgotten just how great this show was. An excellent mix of humor, scenery, drama and eye candy...sigh...but, my in-laws (ages 67 & 70) just watched the first two episodes with me tonight and they love it too...they're English, so I guess this has good cross-generational AND cross-cultural appeal. Eagerly looking forward to the rest of the series!"
+10123,2,MC2 & JDOG puttin' down some sick shit,"This CD was better than I'd hoped it was gonna be. I bought it after hearing the song ""Smokers Club"" w/ B-Lynch and Mr. Doctor, and found the CD that song was from. MC2 & JDOG are both really sick, I like their style, the beats are pretty sick on most of the tracks. I really like this CD, and you can get it for like $6 brand new now on Amazon or Ebay, so pick it up!Oh yea, and on the last track there is a hidden song that is real sick, so don't miss it!H.BIZZLE!"
+10124,1,Harris seems to say......,"Harris seems to say another ""Lecter book? No problem, I'll phone it in."" If you're expecting a stellar end to a trilogy, then you'll be disappointed. Harris really takes what could have been great and just gets lost in the thought that no matter what he writes w/ Hannibal Lecter in it,that it will sell. Now I'm not slamming his ability because ""Black Sunday"", ""Red Dragon"", and ""The Silence of the Lambs"" are all great books and worth having in your collection. But this book left a lot to be desired and I'm surprised the publisher didn't at least say something about it. I would also like to add that I'm glad I borrowed this book because I would definitely have wanted my money back or an exchange. I only give this book one star because you have to enter at least one star."
+10125,2,weird sizing,"Small sizing. Also, it was weird that the outfit was so small but the helmet was huge. It was a cute costume, but there is nothing inside the helmet to keep it on so my son didn't even wear it."
+10126,1,poor product,"unfortunately I purchased this as a gift and it was a great disappointment. Even tried ordering it a second time, with the hope the first one was just a fluke... WRONG! Terrible product and shipped the replacement one back as fast as we discovered the same issues .. poor contacts with the control buttons. I was embarrassed by the poor quality of this 'gift.STAY AWAY FROM THIS PRODUCT AND MANUFACTURER."
+10127,1,Dont buy this?,"i bought this item as a cheap alternative to buying a 5th 360 controller, just so they all wouldnt be white. it came package with the tools necessary to take apart the controller. thats about the only plus. there were just pictures for instructions. just remember if you buy this the 7th screw is in the battery compatrment behind the sticker(took me a few minutes to figure that out. as for the build quality, its solid, but the probem is none of the holes are threaded. also on mine, the d-pad just doesnt want to sit right and seems to have too much play. bottom line is spend your money eslewhere."
+10128,1,POOR,"Dungeon Seige was arguably the best game on the market, but Dungeon Seige II is a poor rendition of the the origional. I threw it in the garbage it is that bad!"
+10129,1,"Powerful, but battery runs down.","When you try to get a tool to do too much, you always fail. Electric drills are more powerful and don't quit when you need them."
+10130,2,Excellent sequel!,"I read this book before I read the first Area 51 book. It was confusing, but extremely helpful after I read the first book. The book starts off exactly where the first one left off. With the discovery of the Airlia held up on Mars, as well as a strange device in Ethiopia's Rift Valley, six craft head for Earth to land in Central Park. But with a discovery of another gaurdian computer in China, it seems the Airlia aren't as nice as they were imagined in the first 'Area 51' book. Characters differed very much from the first book. Mike Turcotte seems more of an easy going guy. Lisa Duncan becomes more of a character, and a romance seems to be blooming between her and Turcotte. A good deal of suspense and action keeps this book going. Eagerly awaiting for the release of ""The Mission"""
+10131,1,Not an easy set watch!!!,Timex advertised the iControl as a crown set watch. That's the only iControl part that was easily for my grandfather to set. The alarm and other functions required 4 buttons to set up and is very hard for someone who has hard time with digital stuff anyways.The seller's RETURN is stated after you drill down several web pages. Be aware that there's a $9.95 restocking fee if the watch is not to your liking. You might as well pay the full retail price at the big-box stores and get the privilage of returning the watch for a full refund.
+10132,2,Essential for Bruin fans,"I'm not the biggest Fischler fan out there (he tends to write in empty platitudes), but this book is definitely worth checking out. Some of his rankings are kooky (Bucyk over Espo, Neely not in the top 20, saying that Tiny Thompson was the best goalie in Bruins history aside from Frankie Brimsek even though he rated both Gerry Cheevers and Ed Johnston ahead of Thompson), but that would be the case with any such list. It's a great generator for discussion, and the bios for each listed person have some neat anecdotes. There are no new revelations about Ray Bourque or Bobby Orr, but there's good information about some of the old timers like Bill Cowley, Cooney Weiland, and Frank Frederickson. If you're a fan of the Bruins, this is essential. If you're a fan of hockey history, it's also worth picking up."
+10133,1,Don't bother to read this one.,"I love well-written, well-researched, authentic historical novels that deal with the Middle Ages. This isn't one of them. I think it may have been nominally researched, but the behavior of the people is implausible and the attempt at archaic language is deplorable. The author not only massacres modern English, she misuses archaisms in her attempt to create a medieval ambiance. For example, she uses ""troth"" when she means ""truth"" and "" thine"" when she means ""thee"". It is annoying and distracting. Furthermore, she changes points of view in an illogical way and never offers any insight into any of the characters or the era. It is an example of very poor, juvenile writing. I wish I had read some of the reviews before I bought the book. I wouldn't have bothered."
+10134,1,MILWAUKEE LIED OVER RATED BUT WORKS DECENT,"Highly overrated tool. Doesn't even come close to the torque specs advertised by Milwaukee. It can take out bolts torqued to about 80 FT/LB.That is the closest it will come to 350 FT/LB? False advertising at the finest by Milwaukee. Don't buy this tool, if you think you can use it for anything over 80 FT/LB.Stay away, far away, not even close!"
+10135,1,Horrible book,This book has no plot. It is only introductions about snobby rich women and no story.Do not waste your time.
+10136,2,Life Altering,"I don't want to rehash what's been said above but I do agree with most of it. What I want to add is that the book says as much about living as it does about dying! In my case, I was going through an experience where I felt the victim of a life situation and 2 people I love dearly were the villains. Beginning on page 41 ""God"" says:"".....there are no victims and no villains."" Me=?????? ""He"" goes on to talk about perspective creating perception and in the next 8 pages I went from feeling the victim to feeling blessed and the feeling has lasted, my life is changed.If the book changed my life for the better it might change yours also??Thanks Mr. Walsch."
+10137,2,50!,"50 Cent's best ablum. I don't see how people can hate on 50, he's rich, he's tough and his lyrics are tight. GG G-unit"
+10138,2,Just someone else who found them with Guster and John Mayer,"This is truly a great folk/blues rock album. Seeing them in concert was amazing. They showed up the pompous John Mayer and gave Guster a run for their money. Although, all music is better live, you should still give this album a listen, it's worth at least three."
+10139,2,A total enjoyment to read,"This is probably the fourth or fifth book that I've read on the subject of the Zohar and the Kabballa, and by far the best. It really helps one understand the valuable teachings that are often between the lines in the Torah (especially for someone like myself without a Jewish background and no knowledge of the Hebrew language). This book kept me hooked from start to begining, and I pretty much read it in one setting. And as a bonus note... all the books from the Harpersanfrancisco ""Essential Series"" tend to be valuable and honest introductions to the various spiritual practices of the world"
+10140,2,Look at where we were and where we might be going,"This is not a run of the mill anthology of 20th Century scientific thinking and predictions. This a many and varied collection of articles, some so short as to only occupy a few lines, whilst some run to 2 or 3 pages.Some of them are ironic, such as predictions that never came to pass (eg Spiro Agnew on Supersonic flight), whilst others transpire to be very omniscient in their warnings for the future (concerns about the 'O' rings on the Space Shuttle 6 months before Challenger exploded).Well worth a read to look back at where we were, consider where we've come to, and where we might be going."
+10141,1,Disappointing...,"With such a strong cast, I was unpleasantly surprised. Stopped watching after 15min because the acting seemed flat, and the movie unappealing."
+10142,2,Sailor Moon,"Sailor moon is great in any form... the only problem is mixx has killed the names! I mean how could they make Makoto Lita? It's just not fair! Well at least they made Usaigi Bunny... Its closer to her Jap. name than ""Serena"". >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( Well if you can't read Jap. than you might want to get the Mixx Sailor Moon Manga... even if they did mess up the names ^_^"

+10144,1,The series is a ripoff,"I knew very well that when I bought this book it was only for inspiration. And that's all it is. But when I purchased the other book in the series ""Navigation 2"" site unseen, I got ... .... This book contains approximately 75% of the Splashpage book. Image for image. The people from Rockport should be ashamed for trying to pull such .... I won't even attempt to look at the rest of the series.As far as the review. There is no ""in-depth"" text examining the pages. 1 paragraph of someones opinion of how it looks.Also the publisher review states ""Offers inspiration as well as informative text on the design process and tools used to achieve the final design.""Uh-no. There is no mention of design process or tools used.This is just my opinion. I could be wrong."
+10145,2,Great ending for the series of movies,Ends where nicely tied up in this last movie. A real good final movie for the Rocky pictures.
+10146,2,Here's my mixed review on a good product,"I'm German/Dutch -- blonde hair, blue eyes, light medium tan. This product is the best self tanner I have ever used. It does not smell, it does not streak. I look super dark while the tan is ""soaking in"" but then it washes off. BUT, that may just be my own skin issue. Lately, I have not tanned well in the tanning bed either. I also used plastic gloves which works -- ok, but I'd recommend the mit they sell to apply it.the plastic gloves may be the problem too. Aside from my skin not ""taking"" the tan as much as I'd like, overall it's a great product. I'll try different application methods or maybe apply more to see how that goes but I'd definitely still recommend this to others, as I understand everyone has different skin types."
+10147,2,love huggies!!!!,"I have two kids and I've never found a better diaper than huggie brand diapers. Don't like pampers or any other brand and believ me I've tried them all. Of course I've learned over the years that it depends on your baby. Believe it or not diapers are different with each baby!!! But for me and my babies its huggies, we love the stretchy sides that no other diaper seems to have. Pampers sides always seemed to tear for some reason and the material was not soft they even gave my first baby diaper rashes form the powder they use to put in their diapers. SO again we prefer huggies but thats just us."
+10148,1,waring blender,"big mistake. cap does not fit tightly. hard to hold plastic jar in position-will not lock. hard to clean, and can not put in dishwasher (try blending soapy water-clean your ceiling next). not worth the money. had a waring for a long time, bought based on prior experience-mistake."
+10149,2,A heck of a lot of fun!,"I've read some less-than-positive reviews on the internet about this final movie in Peter Sellers' career, and I have to respectfully disagree. I saw Fu Manchu when it originally hit theaters back in the 80's, and ever since it's become one of my favorites in the Sellers collection. It's just a LOT of fun to watch, and Peter's amazing talent for creating memorable characters is as evident here as inThe Pink Panther Franchiseand his other works.Don't judge this one too harshly - it's a movie that's meant for pure entertainment, not over-analysis. And it delivers! Heck, HELEN MIRREN in a Peter Sellers movie is just one of many reasons to check it out! I've been waiting years for this one to hit DVD, and now that it's at least available to rent on Amazon, maybe DVD isn't too far off!"
+10150,2,Outstanding,"A phenomenal triumph of form and scale from the master of the nonsensical, David Lynch. I think that Lynch has truly exploded film itself with this 3-hour opus, and he has truly abandoned the notion of ""marketability."" Laura Dern gives perhaps the greatest performance of her career as multiple characters, the first of which is an actress hired under less than clear circumstances to appear in a commercial melodrama called On High and Blue Tomorrows. What is incredible about Inland Empire is how engaging it remains despite its incoherent plot and structure. Lynch is hitting you with a nightmarish intensity that can be felt, and only understood within the internal logic of the subconscious. This movie is scary, funny, ironic, complex, and strangely moving all at the same time. A true masterpiece, one the most impressive films of the decade."
+10151,2,Interesting and Informative,"I found this book to be a good source of information about Native American life at the turn of the century. Every aspect of life was covered, at times through stories about the author's life and at other times through her descriptions and explanations. The book is not written in chronological order, so it was confusing to follow in certain sections. Overall, Mourning Dove's experience of living both the traditional nomadic and then the settled Indian life is a fascinating one, well worth reading about by anyone interested in these subjects. As a feminist, I also found her description of the role of women in her culture to be revelatory."
+10152,2,Greatest Hits?,She's one of the most gorgeous & versatile performers of her generation. Her polite and graceful voice will sure make you ask for more...The problem is that this compilation merely touches the heart of Crystal Gayles string of successes. It's a rather condensed mid-price CD which is okay for the casual listener. Recommended.
+10153,2,awesome!,This ipod is awesome! it hold 240 songs(more songs then i will need)It is sleek and small and it looks great! you should really buy it! The only flaw is when you need to charge the comp needs to be on and Itunes is really complicated.
+10154,1,Dear Mama...,"These new release/same old material projects of 2pacs just keep getting worse and worse. Mama pac should stop signing off on the release and give it up. All of the vocals sound tremendously slowed down just to fit these beats which all sound like mediocre shady/aftermath beats at best...applaud Em for taking on the task single-handedly of trying to keep immortalizing one of his idols, Pac, but then stop clapping, clench a fist and knock him out for poor production. This cd sucks... but then i started to wonder, have any of Pacs cd's ever been great. He's not the greatest anything of all-time, just overhyped...He's not a true MC/rapper, his flow never changes, put him in a circle with biggie, jay, Em and he'd suffer in a freestyle battle. Make some more poetry books or something. Please, no more cd's."
+10155,1,"Nothing interesting happening, didn't go anywhere!","So a woman lives with a lunatic, cheap, family. Nothing happened. It delves into the past of other family members for nothing critical to the story. I didn't get it, and was surprised that I could read the whole thing and not know anything."
+10156,2,It works,I ordered two of these and one of them doesn't fully close unless you slightly push it. The other one however came fine. I've never lost my keys since I got this carabiner and it works for hooking other keys on it as well.
+10157,1,"Unlikely main character, too slow and frankly boring","Disapointing story from Ludlum, the main character is unsimpathetic and totally out of place for the task. could not finish this story, and would prefer to give it 1 star but after all it is Ludlum (or is it?)."
+10158,2,nice album..,"""Leccion de vuelo"" is a very nice album. this guy has style and class.I really didn't waste my money,all the songs are good.He has not a powerfull voice but, it is very nice and soft to my hears.My favs:Intocable.- nice ballad.Laberinto.-with belanova. one of the best tracks.pop dance song.Entra.- it's a nice piece.Tu hechizo.- it sounds like a retro style ,very 70 or 60,lovely.The rest are really good songs.You won't feel bad ,if you buy this cd.."
+10159,2,CJ got nothing on Niko,"Grand theft auto IV is a great game, people say its bad I say that they are wrong, IV is a great way to start off Grand Theft Auto on the new Generation of consoles. People say San Andreas is better because of free roam, in my opinion the free roam was just a pain, having to take that boring 6 minute drive just to get to the other side of the map. IV is New York big smelly crowded NY, and it is beautiful."
+10160,1,Doesn't work on carpet,"I bought this vacuum cleaner after a lot of research. I was soon very disappointed. It worked great the first time I used, but the second time I used it the belt kept coming off. My husband fixed it once, but it kept slipping off. He said it looked like a design flaw. I had remembered reading other bad reviews about the belt, but decided to try it anyway because there were also a lot of good reviews. I have been trying to return it for over a week and having major problems with amazon.com. I've always liked the customer service in the past, but this time I'm having a hard time returning the item that it makes me not want to buy anything else with them. Save you money and buy a different vacuum cleaner, or if you do buy this one don't buy it from amazon.com get it from someplace you can return it to easily if it breaks."
+10161,1,Nice Design but broke after second use,"I purchased this DVD player cause i thought it was a nice original design and is half the size of a regular DVD player, but when i went to use it for the third time the unit would not turn on. Since it was older than 30 days (but less than a year) i called Coby directly. They said i had to send it to them, plus $12 to get it fixed or they would send a new one, but that it would take 4-6 weeks! Since it was only $35 I junked it and got a second Philips unit which i have never had problems with."
+10162,1,What to use this line for?,"As a level fly line, this isn't a useful item. Level lines aren't particularly good for fly fishing as they don't allow a delicate presentation of the fly. The reality is that double taper and weight forward lines are available on-line for only a few dollars more or even less in some cases, on ebay for no name lines.If this were were a sinking line instead of a floating one, it'd be useful as a fly trolling line.The price isn't bad but the uses are unfortunately really limited.There's an old saying that that difference between a man and a woman is that a man will pay two dollars for a one dollar item that he needs and a woman will pay a dollar for a two dollar item that she doesn't. The problem is there aren't going to be a lot of women shopping for this.This item is a good price for an item that one really doesn't need at all. Crystal River really needs to offer this item as DT or a WF line."
+10163,1,This film is an insult to the people whose names it uses.,"It might be pretty - I don't know, I found it to be too nauseating. I have read several biographies of Elizabeth, so I was very interested when this movie came out. Forget disappointing, this movie was appalling. Its only semblance to history were the names used. If you're looking for a bit of entertainment with sex and violence in costume, and you have no respect for the reputations of real people who lived and died four hundred years ago, you might like this movie. If you watch it, please remember that, as a source of historical insight on the characters of Elizabeth and her court, this movie is complete and utter garbage."
+10164,2,Essential,"This book was published in 1922, 10 years after the emperor resigned. His resignation led to the formation of the Republic of China that same year, not with Mao in 1949. Its author, Dr. Werner was a respected sinologist and sociologist who taught at the University of Peking.Read the preface and note his sources - among them Giles - before Wade even! Pinyin hadn't been invented and the fact that the publisher didn't take the trouble to make the transcription change is seriously annoying. He didn't have Sidney Gamble's resources. Consider the fact that the U.S. passed the Immigration Act of 1917 (Asians Barred Zone) and compare Werner.Werner's book is still THE standard reference on the subject. Many of his sources haven't been translated. You can check with the Riccci Institute. Like it or not, this was how sociology was done back then. Textbooks from the period are available."
+10165,2,Love this grill!,"I have had this grill for about 4 weeks and I absolutely love it. I previously bought a George Foreman and the difference between them is the Sanyo prepares meat like it came from the outside barbecue grill. Steaks are absolutely delish! And the clean-up is so simple. I read many of the reviews before I ordered this and thought, ""it can't be all that!"" - but it truly is. I am so happy with my purchase. And Amazon has the absolute best price - free shipping if you don't have to have it in a hurry, I got mine in just about a week."
+10166,2,A new standard elementary text,"This is an excellent elementary text for the average college student. Over-all it is strong on issues of analysis, policy, and oversight, and weak on collection, covert action, and counterintelligence. The chapter on collection has a useful figure comparing the advantages and disadvantages of the five collection disciplines, and but does not get into the detail that this aspect of the intelligence community-80% of the annual expense-merits."
+10167,2,"great water quality, but construction can be improved","It's a real good feeling to drink just plain H2O, knowing and tasting there's none of the chemicals in there... The water that comes out of this distiller tastes great, I love it. It certainly does the job well, however, I think there's quite some room for improvement as far as the construction of the machine goes. There's that ""made in china""-feel to it, but that's ok for the price - it works and it makes the impression it's solid enough to run for a few years. And I'm already totally hooked on distilled water!"
+10168,1,"Faithful, yet faithless","It truly is great to see a movie made version of a book, and this one is pretty close. I must say though, this movie was not scary. Danny looks like a chipmonk, and Jack is not fit for the role(he looks like an ugly girl on the cover). The film is too long, and cannot be compared to the classic version with Jack Nicholson. This movie was pretty low-budget if you ask me, and dont listen to any of the good reviews. Rent the older one, and you'll be more pleased with youre choice. Why do you think it was a ""made for t.v movie?"" It was too crappy to be let out in theaters, so they released it on t.v, and hardly anybody knew about it. Those who did know, barley cared."
+10169,2,very nice,"when I first got this CD, I played it for two weeks straight (I'm sure my wife was sick of that..).The combination of Costello & Bacharach really works.My only issue is that it can be a little melancholy at times.other than that its a good addition to the collection."
+10170,1,CRICHTON FANS GOT SNUCK ON THIS ONE,"How could such a great book be turned into such a horrible movie?? Congo is my favourite Crichton book and to see it butchered like this is painful. Tim Curry seems to know the movie sucks, and he chews the scenery to shreds providing the one thing that's reasonably entertaining in this film. Read the book."
+10171,1,Car Charger,"Quick delivery, but it worked only one time. Stopped after that. The cost of shipping was more than the charger, so I didn't send it back. I will buy the next one from a local store so I can bring it back without having to pay for it several times over."
+10172,1,Fans only,"What is this series? I guess it is romance, in the same genre as those thick novels with a woman and Fabio on the cover. If one starts this book with that in mind, you won't be disappointed. It still has Ayla inventing everything and healing everyone, and Jondalar is still an amusingly dumb blond with one endearing attribute. The animal friends are still there, wowing the prehistoric residents of France. Auel still manages to make sex scenes tiresome -- singlehandedly she may keep teenagers from having sex because she makes it seem so boring.But a fun bubble-head read nonetheless. Smart of the publisher to release this book in May -- it is the perfect beach read."
+10173,2,Reliable monitor from a reliable company.,"The ViewSonic E771 has been with me through college using two different computer systems. As a Computer Science major, it has been through a lot of use. The picture is crisp, colorful, and bright.At about two years into its life, it started malfunctioning. The monitor was caught in an odd resolution. I called ViewSonic, and without any hassle they had me send it in. They sent me back a new one in no time, even though I had no receipts or original packaging.As a basic 17 inch monitor with no frills or extras, the E771 does a great job. I definitely recommend this monitor along with any ViewSonic monitor. ViewSonic is a very trustworthy company that stands behind its products."
+10174,1,Don't waste your money!,"I read this book because I'm a Bujold fan, especially of her Vorkosigan universe. I have read and re-read her books several times. ""Winterfair Gifts"" is an enjoyable visit to her universe, but not at all on par with her other novels or her previous short stories about Miles Vorkosigan. You certainly won't understand why there are many Miles devotees from reading this short story, which is truly for only Vorkosgian fans.As far as the other stories, boring, boring and boring. The only possible author of interest of Asaro, I found some of the elements in her story interesting. I too agree with a few other reviewers in that I was troubled with the very young age of the protagonists.If you are a fan of one of the authors, please take this book out of the library. This book is a shameless attempt to make money for shoddy second-rate work by beloved authors."
+10175,1,Popular science writing?,"The Evolutionists is an endlessly repetitive, poorly organized book, replete with spelling and grammatical errors. Worse, it is an uninspired introduction to a fascinating and important topic. Morris appears to have expended as little effort as possible researching this book, and evinces only a facile understanding of the issues he engages. The Evolutionsists reads like a third-rate middle school book report. It's about 5 pages of content morphed into 200+ pages of text (how many times can Morris report exactly the same findings about stickleback fish? I lost count...). Though not popular science writing at its worst (Morris at least comes across as a neutral reporter, and his facts are generally correct), the Evolutionists is popular science writing at its most mediocre. What a disappointment. Are Morris' other books this lame?"
+10176,1,didn't work for me,"I tried this device.. i had high hopes. My main computer is a dell1720 laptop. I think it does not draw enough power, regulary, to make this device work. It had a habit of switch on and off.. quickly! I tried to adjust the power level, but to no avail. I was very afraid it was going to nuke all of my components by switching them on and off so quickly. Maybe if I had a regular desktop it would have worked out better. But who is buying those anymore?"
+10177,2,The Gnostic Gospels,If you're wondering what gnosticism is all about Pagels' book is a very clear and easy read. I would highly recommend it.
+10178,2,Many Timeless Nuggets of Wisdom,"I was somewhat reluctant to buy this book, fearing it would be completely out of date. I've read more recent MMOG development books and wondered what this book could offer that would be any different. It turned out that it had lots of facts, data, and insights not included in my other reads. Sure, some of the content was dated. A lot has changed in the MMO landscape since 2002 (this is pre-WoW, after all). But it contained many nuggets of wisdom I've not found elsewhere. It's full of stories from industry veterans discussing what when right or wrong with their game's launch, and things they wish they had known before launch. Still valuable after all this time."
+10179,2,For the Record,"Long-times fans know that Schooner Fare spent the first 10 of their 26 years together singing in Irish pubs in Halifax,Portland, Boston, NYC, Wash. D.C., Chicago, and Milwaukee. The ""Finnegan's Wake"" album is a throwback to those days. ""The Nightingale"" is a traditional song SF learned from the Clancys and Tommy Makem, as Stan Rogers and James taylor no doubt did too. Steve Romanoff's songs on SF's other albums have been recorded by Tommy Makem and Liam Clancy, Barleycorn, Foster & Allen, and many other Irish musicians..... making them ""Irish songs."" The folk-process is a fascinating thing."
+10180,1,Not a fun movie!!!,This movie isn't fun and I thought it was interested but nothing. Also they acting were so unsatified. Unfortunately this movie hmm I can say it's not perfect.
+10181,2,Hazelrah!!,I thought this book was awesome!! Towards the end Richard Adams actually succeeded in turning me into a rabbit. My heart was racing just like a bunny. I recommend this book to any age group. If you read it when you were younger read it again. It is a powerful story.
+10182,2,"Excellent, Excellent Book","Ms. Russell, your book is the best I have read dealing with grief. I have ordered several copies for my patients.Thank you."
+10183,1,Dave isn't Atlanis,"If you were a fan of Dave's work up until Everyday, you're not alone. Dave's ""sellout-tinnybopping-TLR"" album is his worst yet, Hardly having and resemblance to the Dave Matthews Band which used more instruments than Dave's electric guitar and the Glen Ballard lyrics that could have been made in a studio ""Anyday"". If you want a real Dave CD find a way to go the scraped Lillywhite Sessions... That's the 5 star album."
+10184,1,Magritte video - not suitable for school viewing,"I ordered this DVD to supplement my surrealism project I teach to my art students. Good thing I watched it first! Magritte has SO many cool works of art....and yet the focus in this movie seems to be on his nude paintings. Several times the camera even zooms in for a closeup of the breasts!! I'm not a prude by any means, but come on. A couple of times they even showed a live nude woman....and I have no idea why they needed to do that. Shock value?Anyway, it's a useless video for my classroom. THe only views of the majority of his works are in passing in several art museum shots from far away. Crazy.Would not advise this for a classroom viewing."
+10185,2,Expensive but worth it,"If they cost less I would give them 5 stars. perfect fit, looks great, lasts for years and keeps everything nice and clean. I've had these in my GMC Yukon, Jeep Commander and Dodge RAM 1500 and in every car they fit PERFECTLY! We get about 400"" of snow a year on our mountain so when you get into your car with snow all over your shoes, it can melt off and make a huge mess. These matts will hold the water and not let it spill and make your carpet GROSS. If you have mud, snow or just a very wet place, get these mats for your car."
+10186,1,Couldn't get it to unscrew bulb!,"I got this item at Home Depot for $20. Every time that I tried to turn it to unscrew the floodlight, the pole would loosen and collapse. I'm returning it!"
+10187,2,Great But Noisy,"I bought this to replace a broken massager of another brand and also to spice things us in the bedroom for my fiance and myself. I love it and so does he! It's great! The only complaint I have is that the description said that this massager is supposed to be discreet, but the thing makes a lot of noise! I would recommend this to anyone as long as they have a very private place to use it."
+10188,2,The Hurricane,"The story was excellent, but I was disappointed to discover that it was not a true story, even though it was portrayed as truth. Denzel Washington did a fine job. It made good fiction."
+10189,1,Adorable Knits for Tots,"I was less than favorably impressed with this book. The best pattern in the book is on the front cover, and what's inside I found to be disappointing. Sorry author!Janice Lawson - Montana"
+10190,1,Cheap junk,The pin screw isn't centered over the plate. The 1mm pin is very fragile and broke after removing two metal flywheels from an N scale train motor. Stay away from this.
+10191,1,Yawwwwn...,"I'm sorry to say the Midnight Express series has nothing that would even allow me to listen to these straight through. For a more interesting listen mixed by a real dj, check out DJ Spinna's ""Raiding The Crates""- he does the Guidance catalog some good. and to the Guidance staff: excellent job on the A&R ing, but get real Dj's to mix your sound not some fat dude w/ a goatee and pony tail sitting behind a computer, programming tracks.... watch out he's gonna spill his Diet Coke all over the mixing board!"
+10192,2,Nice Nice and Nicer,yo dis game is tough no b-ball game can beat this who kares about wat others think buy this Peace
+10193,2,"Cute story, beautiful pictures",Great story with beautiful pictures. The only downside is that I bought it for my 18 month old and the storyline is a bit complicated for her. Otherwise she love looking at the animals.
+10194,2,Works like a food bowl should,my cats eat from it. It is not lifted to high for them in fact could probly go a litte higher. works like it should.
+10195,1,It's Okay,"This bat is way over-priced, but I couldn't find anywhere else to buy it. I looked. I hope you have better luck than me. I only bought the bat because I was entering a tournament that used this bat instead of the yellow (skinny) wiffle ball bat. I dislike this bat a lot and prefer the yellow bat. I suppose I did get used to it after a lot of practice, but I'm just not a fan of this bat and the price. This bat really changes the way you hit a wiffle ball (your swing, bat speed and contact)."
+10196,1,Very Disappointed,"I was very disappointed when this arrived to find that it was just a normal recipe book, not one with recipes to use the Magic Bullet."
+10197,1,Amazon cancels orders,"I ordered this. I waited a week. Then, Amazon emailed me that they could not fulfill my order. And yet - it is still on their site as available. Shame on them."
+10198,1,Not so good,when i got this game i thought it was going to be cool but it wasent it sucked balls thats all i have to say.
+10199,1,"I hated it. So did my sister, and she likes romantic movies.","I am a male, I'm 20 and I'm single, so maybe I wasn't the indicated to enjoy this movie. I really hated it, it was sooo slow, long and boring. But my elder sister is 32, she's married, and she loves to read romantic novels (all of them awful in my opinion). She even read the Bridges of Madison County novel and liked it. But she hated the movie as much as I did. If anybody has an explanation for that, please tell me."
+10200,1,THE GREAT IMPOSTERS,"Save your money, without Tony Williams & Zola Taylor it's just not worth listening to. The c/d does make a good oversized earring though or maybe it could be used as a ""frizbee""."
+10201,1,wow.,David Maslanka's 'Mountain Roads' is a fantastic piece. If only the quartet could play in tune. What an awful representation of a great piece.
+10202,1,NO Red Lettering!,"I specifically purchased this Bible because the ""Look Inside"" pages had red lettering. But when it arrived, I was very disappointed to find absolutely no red lettering. I purchase almost everything through Amazon, and 99% of the time I'm delighted, but unfortunately, this was a dud. Amazon, please change the ""Look Inside"" to accurately reflect what's really in the book."
+10203,2,Sharp,"Very sharp but sometimes a little difficult to peel a beet at certain angles. It sometimes digs in too deep into the vegetable for peeling and I have to repeel the same vegetable area. But all in all, good peeler."
+10204,2,perfect for the price,"since you can find brand product in shops that will cast at least $20 for the shaving cream, $30 for the brush.... all for less than $15... perfect.I bought that to try, i didn't want to invest to much money without knowing if i will like it and continue shaving with a safty razor.I LIKED IT !Those razors are great and shave way better than any mac III for cheaper.If you start or if the budget is tight, go for it it is a good set.Later on you might like a better brush though."
+10205,1,Terrible...,"Left streaks on my lcd screen, skip this and buy some OptiMist Prime instead, it works great."
+10206,2,"Comfortable, Excellent Price","I have never owned a pair of Clark's shoes before, so this was a step out especially buying online without trying them on. The price was great so I went for it. I would highly recommend these shoes to everyone. They were not uncomfortable, even the first time I wore them, and look great whether with jeans or dress pants!!"
+10207,1,Stick with paper,We thought this would save money on buying filters. In theory it should however it allows a fairley large quanity of grounds and sediment through. We are back to using paper.
+10208,2,Don't get the box set!,The box set robs you of precious scenes . Bye each volume individually . This is great if your a fan of jackass like me.unfortunatly it is censored so all the nudity Is blurred and all the swears are bleeped . Still fun to watch on a rainy day
+10209,1,Sosa,"They were ok, nothing great. My dog didn't seem to enjoy them that much. Probably won't try them again. Sorry"
+10210,1,OK in the short-term,"I have a Brinkmann 4415, and I can echo the other complaints out there - mine was good for a few years, but if something happens.... Although I have kept it covered for the entire time it was not in use, I have lots of rust in the interior parts. Now, it's like a blowtorch. I called Brinkmann to figure out what was wrong and order new parts, but couldn't get through. Emailed, but no response so far, and I've been waiting about 2 weeks. I woudl stay away."
+10211,2,Memories of bonzo dog band and Zappa,This may be one of the best rock n roll parody albums...Elvis meets Robert Plant....it brings back memories of Frank Zappa and The Bonzo Dog Band.......really hillarious and competant creative muscians....this will brighten up a cloudy day....
+10212,1,Meh,"I love history. I love food. This book should have been a no-brainer. However, the best I can say is that it is ""meh"". Is it well researched? Generally yes, although I found one very obvious flaw- when describing Columbus' encounter with man eating Caribs, the author was blatantly innacurate. Columbus never actually saw the Caribs; he only heard about them from the Taino.Aside from that, I found the book to be a tad dull which is a shame- just because a book is of an academic nature does not mean that it needs to be boring. The exception was the section on Medieval gas passing:}"
+10213,1,DON'T BUY THIS VERSION,"Don't make the mistake i did by buying this copy of this classic ITALIAN movie.It's a complete disaster with faded colors and grainy images.I can't beleive they put this one on the market.You'll get to see the three sketches all right, but the transfer is simply amateurish and insulting.No subtitles,not even the original ITALIAN track,no gallery of photos etc.This is the worst dvd i ever bought.Luckily for others,a new version was released in 2005 which has the proper treatment.I just hope that VISCONTI's last movie THE INNOCENT won't fall in this category when they released it someday.Let us pray for the preservation of LAURA ANTONELLI's beauty."
+10214,1,I GUESS THEY WOULD GIVE A RECORD DEAL TO ANYONE THESE DAYS. TRASH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!,I have never heard such garbage. Nuff said.
+10215,1,Don't Say You Love Me,"My younger sister got this Cd because she loves Pokemon. I listened to it and truly almost all the songs are sung by whiny teenagers(ex: Aaron Carter, Ashley Ballard), and people that think they are still teenagers (ex: NSync, Vitamin C, Emma Bunton). But I love M2M's song ""Don't Say You Love Me"" They really have a lot of talent,(even though I don't think they wrote the song) especially for their age, and they are not annoying like most teen pop artists(ex: Britney Spears, Christina Aguielera, Aaron Carter). I am going to order their M2M's single now. I hope they continue singing."
+10216,1,dmv soft lense handler,did not work for me at all. It was too soft to get hold to the lens. i will keep tryng to find the right thing for me.
+10217,1,"Disappointing, to say the least","I was very disappointed with this mystery/suspense novel. The plot was so full of red herrings and ludicrous trips abroad that it made no sense. The heroine, a museum curator, tries to solve the mysterious death of her boss, who was hiding a collection of artifacts from her. However, we soon realize that 1. the artifacts are priceless, 2. oops, maybe they are fakes, 3. they have something to do with WWII, 4. that neo-nazis abound in Georgia, 5. that anyone can hop on a plane to Russia and unearth buried secrets from 70 years ago knowing no Russian, 6. Same goes for Greece, but knowing not a word of Greek.All in all, this book was one of the worst I have read of the genre."
+10218,1,not their best day in the sun,"""Disregard Of Timekeeping"" is the album to get by Bonham. Pick ""Mad Hatter"" up only if you want an out of print album to finish your collection of a band. Bonham is undoubtely Led Zeppelin wannabe's, but at least Disregard was listenable. This gets lost in a prog-rock mess. You can find a review of ""Disregard"" I did at [...]. As someone who listens to rock ablums weekly for a review blog and loved ""Disregard"" from the first minute ... ""Mad Hatter"", no matter how much I tried, wasn't worth reviewing for my blog."
+10219,1,Broke !,"When I tried to open the tube to put the battery in, the clips that keep it together broke. Now every time I use it, I have to re- duct tape it together.Otherwise, it would have been a good light."
+10220,1,"Um, I where are the songs from the movie...is this a soundtrack?","I saw it lastnight with my wife, we loved it...great music...ok, go to amazon to buy it and wait, where are the songs from the movie...it a Nelly CD...(no dis to him) but I was looking for a variaty of songs...rock, rap, blues...not rap, rap, and um oh yeah, Rap...No Doubt...not on thereCreedence Clearwater Revival...not on thereAC/DC...not on thereJohn Lee Hooker...Not on thereNorman Greenbaum...nopeBilly Squier...no...I guess if you want the real soundtrack, you will have it piece it together yourself at I-tunes..."
+10221,2,you can't go back for love,"Love is good,but business is better,you can't go back for love.People move on and change"
+10222,2,Really enjoyed Pilgrim's Progress: Journey to Heaven,My wife and I really enjoyed this movie and was really impressed by how good the special effects were for a low budget film. The acting was good too and of course the story is outstanding.
+10223,2,Cruasder,"The CD is chocked full of happy, toe-tapping somgs. This was my first experience buying anything by Fishbelly Black and I'd do it again. I highly recommend this CD to folks who like just plain good music."
+10224,2,AWESOME!,I received this product promptly and it was inexpensive. I love the 20 minute workout that fits into my schedule very nicely. A great product!
+10225,2,Outstanding Landscapes,"A good friend turned me on to Leestemaker after attending an exhibition of his work. This book is my first introduction to Leestemaker, and I'm impressed and inspired. This book is just mesmerizing, full of color pictures of his work to lose yourself in. The richness of his colors and the simplicity of his landscapes are astounding. I highly recommended it for any art lover.."
+10226,2,Field guide,loved this guide and plan on using it throughout the year. I love the clear colored pictures. They really help you recognize the plants so much better than sketches. Great information on every plant that it reviews. It is a small sized book for easy carrying. I great way to get information for plants in Eastern and Central United States.
+10227,1,Get Serious,"Garry must be desperate to allow his name to be attached to this product. There are half a dozen free programs that do what Chessmate does, several in the price range that are superior (e.g. Majestic Chess), and many that, for a bit more, can really play chess (Fritz 8; Rebel 12; Chessmaster 9000). These last 3 also have didactic funtions that are greatly superior to those of Chessmate. If you want to beat up a computer program, Fritz and company can be suitably lobotomized with a little fiddling; if you want to get serious about chess, Kasparov Chessmate is not the way to go."
+10228,1,Lots of puzzles but poor editing,"I am hooked on Sudoku and it takes my spare time even if only a couple of minutes. Which is why I rely on the categories, I usually expect Easy to only take me a couple of minutes; even with medium I don't need to take notes. Unfortunately that is not the case with this set of puzzles. In fact, the very first one in the Easy category wasn't that 'easy'. But then some of the hard ones are actually easy.There are a lot to do and it will be fun. If not for the poor editing I would have rated it 5 stars."
+10229,2,BEST OF THE THREE!,"I will be honest, ECLIPSE was my least favorite book of the whole lot. However, I did think that this particular movie was the best yet. It has plenty of romance and lots of action too, I do believe that most guys will actually like it as well."
+10230,1,what are you thinking??,"I just have to say that Hilary Duff has no singing talent at all. The song she sang about Santa was so bad!The lyrics were so childish! I'm sorry, but her voice sounds like a 4-year-old and she can't dance. Oh,I hate the show ,too."
+10231,2,"Good show,BUT.....","Very good sound and loved the shows format, but can't understand why it was mixed as 5.1 and is light on the .1With a band of this caliber, why hold back a great drummer, and bass player???If this would have had super bass like the rest of the sound, I would have given it 5 stars..........Still a very good DVD."
+10232,1,Fostering co-dependency,"My mother gave me this book this summer and I only read it once before I vowed never to open it again. It stinks of everything unhealthy about a relationship my mother would love to have with me. It supports an unbalanced, clingy, unhealthy and codependent relationship between a mother and her son. I cannot support this book in any way. I hope that people will think twice before exposing their children to unhealthy relationship examples such as this one."
+10233,1,NOT SHARP ENOUGH!!!,"I'm sad to say I didn't have a pleasant experience with these scissors on the first use, so I haven't used them since. They aren't sharp enough to prevent tugging on the hair, and sense my Pomeranian is very sensitive to such, I'm unable to utilize them :("
+10234,2,Beats replacing points any day of the week.,Used this to switch my 1973 Monte Carlo over to electronic ignition. Works great and starts like a dream. Only downside isit can be a pain in the butt getting the screws in. I dropped them countless times which lead to some major frustration.
+10235,2,Awesome!!!!,"I'm a huge tea drinker & I enjoy drinking coffee. But with my work, I'm constantly running around the office so if it wasn't for this warmer, my coffee & tea would be ice cold, but this warmer really keeps it luke warm. But of course the first few times there was a smell when my metallic mug is placed on the warmer. But now the smell is gone."
+10236,2,Better than standard chicklit,"I picked this up after reading yet another shell of a book on modern day, married woman life and was so pleased. The writing is enjoyable and poetic, descriptive enough to form a picture in the head, and fluid enough to have kept me engaged and interested. The plot lacked a little and I had questions about some of the characters (i.e. I didn't find that much *not* to like about Emily's husband, Kevin, although the descriptions of what Emily sees while her love is waning - a drip of dried milk on his upper lip after his morning cereal - are spot-on ""showing, not telling"") -- hence the four stars. Yes, the ending was open, but I did find some settling within Emily that was enough closure for me. I would certainly read additional books by this author."
+10237,1,no air bed,We bought this to take with us on vacation and ended up with half the bed losing air by the middle of the nite.We tryed for 5 nites and all 5 nites I ended on the floor in the middle of the nite upset.
+10238,1,"Fast food TV, aka Bad.","Shows like this are what keep me from getting cable. TV shows are thrown together just like everything else nowadays. They slap them together, put on a snazzy title, and hope they get just enough ratings to warrant the next mediocre show.The first season was 'OK' enough for me to kind of want to watch the second season. I'm 5 episodes in and I'm done.Every episode has parts in it that make laugh at the poor production quality. It's boring, doesn't make sense, and I just don't care about any of the characters.This is the McDonald's extra value menu double-cheeseburger of TV shows. Enjoy."
+10239,2,Better than I thought,"I would consider myself a ""radio"" Damn Yankees fan, having only heard their radio hits like, ""Don't Tread on Me,"" and, ""High Enough."" After hearing this Essentials CD though, I see that there's more than meet's the ear. The only song on here that I can't seem to get into is, ""Come Again,"" but all the others are real rockers for me. From the milder, ""Silent is Broken,"" to the fast and heavy, ""Piledriver,"" this CD never stops! The guitars, vocals, bass, and drums, all rock. I tend to give conservative ratings, so that's why I gave this a 4 out of 5 stars, but otherwise, I would highly recommend it for any other ""radio"" fans like myself."
+10240,1,Fuzzy image,Definitely magnifies as per advertised but the image was too fuzzy to make out. I have better distance vision without the binoc. Had to send back.
+10241,1,daylight rubbery,i got this download thinking it was an anti virus application i really donot know what i got for my $10 i mean what on earth is this thing that was forced on me without being able to return it because it is digital download
+10242,1,Item not as listed,I bought this item solely because it mentioned that the product was by Farberware. It is not so. Silverstone is a brand by itself and not a Farberware product. I had to return the package and file for a refund. Pretty disappointing.
+10243,1,Skip this one unless...,"If you are a horror movie fan who enjoys a good movie, pass this one by. It is about half a star above ""Attack of the Killer Tomatoes"" and that's being generous."
+10244,2,Excellent brand,Had this watch for almost a year now and there are NO scratches and its looks almost new. Looks like this watch is going to last a long time :)
+10245,2,"Good, Though Flawed","I enjoyed this book because it was engrossing and well written. I thought Cornelia was a little too quirky - annoying sometimes - and things wrapped up too neatly in the end. I didn't think a lot of it was very realistic. All in all, I liked it, though, mostly because of de los Santos' word choice and description."
+10246,2,VERY HAPPY WITH THIS PRINTER SO FAR...,"I recently bought this printer for basic printing needs. I am very pleased with it so far. I don't find it to be too noisy, it prints good quality. I dont recommend it for pictures/photos but for your basic printing needs its a good buy. I don't find the ink to be too expensive. It is by far much cheaper than the lexmark ink I used to have to by for my lexmark printer(junk). But if you want an inexpensive printer for your basic printing needs I would recommend this one, and for less than $50, well you really can't go wrong. Don't let the bad reviews steer you away from this printer. Its a good basic printer."
+10247,2,Great fun!,"""Dice Angel"" is a great fun read. I laughed out loud several times while reading it, and the ending brought a real smile to my face. You also get to see Las Vegas from a locals point of view, which is dead on. The only reason it's not 5 stars is that it's really not meant to be. Its meant to be 4 star fun!"
+10248,1,not recommended,"Don't like me this productThe wire gauge is very thin, and yet not tested and may not work properlyThanks"
+10249,1,"Cheap, don't buy or use RCAs","This product sucks.I installed my amp very carefully. Tried to pull out the RCA from my amp and the tip of the rca cable came off and stayed in the port and shorted it out.cheap. power cabe ok, rca sucks"
+10250,1,sounds like a good book,"this sounded like a good story but when the price of the hard back is only $0.20 and the kindle version is at $7.99 there is a problem, i object to paying extra for the electronic version than the printed version when the electronic version costs so much less to produce and handle which is a pity as i think i would have liked it.it is time amazon got their act together and realised they are loosing lots of sales due to this problem."
+10251,2,A MUST HAVE TO ENJOY,"I purchased the dvd for myself, but as soon as my dog caught wind of it, he couldn't take his eyes off!My dog watched the entire movie!....that flipped me out!Perfect for your dog, and the dog lover!"
+10252,2,Best cordless phone,"This Panasonic cordless phone set is the best buy you can find ! I am now using the base unit, plus 4 ""add on units"" and no problem with anything whatsoever ! Phones have all the features you possibly could want. Panasonic and Amazon.com get an A+ from me."
+10253,2,"Great Playing, OK sound quality","This DVD has some great performances. I would have liked to have seen more duo performances however. Solo guitar takes the stage for more than half of the sets and I started missing the interaction that two jazz guitarists can share. There are acoustic and electric performances by Ron Affif and Gene Bertoncini. Barry Green and Cory Christiansen play electric only.My only real complaint is the less than perfect sound and picture quality. If you've ever seen Cafe' Benedetto, you know what I mean. It is better than that video, but not by much. The performances are sincere and very well played, but the so so sound quality is hard to overcome. Overall, the DVD is well worth the money and is a great buy for jazz guitar fans."
+10254,2,BEST CHILD'S BOOK EVER!!!!,"I love this book. It is perfect for every child and it's exactly what I wanted to teach my little one. This book is a great reference point whenever my inquiring toddler want to remark about someone of a different size, special need or skin color. I just remind ""God make each of us special and He loves us all."" I gift this often as it really is a special book and my kids love it."
+10255,1,Sony CPA-9C MiniDisc and Discman Cassette Adapter,Skip it. Sound quality is only fair. I bought it to use between my Palm Pilot mp3 player and my car stereo. Later I purchased an FM wireless transmitter that plays through the radio. Cheaper and much better sound.
+10256,1,"Gloom, doom, and scenery","I read about 150 pages and quit in despair-- all those looming mountains and historic old buildings, all those long silences and reluctant, drawn-out stories of Papa's past-- I wondered if we'd ever get to the vampires. Looking ahead, I did find Dracula, less entertaining than I had hoped, so I gave up. For really interesting vampires, read instead George RR Martin's ""Fevre Dream""."
+10257,1,0 stars if possible!!!,Spits out the disgusting thing you are cleaing up at you as you clean! I couldn't believe it. How nasty do you get?
+10258,2,"harry potter and the deadly hallows , part 1","is my favorite harry potter movie, is very good and great, do not hesitate to make your purchase, is unique and epic"
+10259,1,Does not fit the TX as advertised,"I suspect this case was originally sized for other, slightly smaller palms. Whe a TX is slid into this case, the top of the display is obstructed and the palm sticks out the top. The palm originally used in this case must have been shorter & palm called it close enough. The quality & workmanship of the case is nice, but it simply does not fit a TX. I'm disappointed."
+10260,1,Screen Will Break - Don't Take Chance,"I have owned two Elphs and loved them for their size and picture quality. I read all the reviews for this camera and decided I would buy it even though a handful of people had issues with the screen on this camera. My screen cracked in the upper right corner within 3 months of owning it even though I took extra care to treat the camera very gently (much more gently than my previous Elph which lasted 3 years with no problems). I have no idea how I cracked the screen, but the $300 camera is now a basic point and shoot with no features accessbile since the screen is destroyed. I took the time to write this review to suggest that the screen breaking is something you should pay attention to and something that will likely happen if you buy this camera. Everything else about camera was great; hope they can fix the screen issue!"
+10261,1,Disappointing,"The so called 5.1 is terrible. I could not hear any vocals. I had to play it on regular two channel stereo for it sound descent at all. The special effects in between songs were cheesy. The band can still jam, but the DVD was poorly mixed. I's rather just listen to one of their CDs."
+10262,2,100 girls,"This unknown movie is a, ""gem."" It has a lot of truths between how each gender perceives the other. It may not have played out in your local theater, but it is worth watching when bored. Similar movies within its class would be a, ""boy girl thing"" and, ""the cutting edge."" Truly a fun movie to see with your better (or worse) half."
+10263,1,Velo Webspring Bicycle Seat,The bicycle seat is comfortable however it does not wear well. As you continue to use it the material will tear and as time passes the foam will show through. The covering on the seat should be made of a more durable material
+10264,1,"Not Bad, but Not Great either","Children of Men transports us to the year 2027 where the world has not experienced a new birth in 18 years due to mass human infertility. As a result, people have lost hope and have turned violent. Suddenly, a pregnant woman capable of producing life appears out of nowhere and the chase is on...In short, the acting is pretty good (but nothing wonderful), the plot is quite interesting, while the dialogues are average and sometimes below average.In a nutshell, it's probably not a movie you would want to add to your collection, but it might provide for an evening's entertainment, and that's about it; it lacks that extra something to put it over the top. No masterpiece here."
+10265,2,"Who's your daddy, Annie?","Don't get me wrong, I'm a HUGE Kid follower from 1981. I'm not giving 5 stars based solely on the choice of pieces on this compilation. His albums were very story driven, as if he were writing musicals. Taken out of context, most of these songs hold well. I wish the songs were placed in chronological order. Like I said, Kid Creole's albums were stories and the stories were linked like a grand epic that involved paternity issues, gigaloism, cannibalism, corrupt law enforcement! I think it woulda painted a better picture if told in order. If you can find the original albums, grab 'em. This greatest hits will suffice until T.P.T.B. make a boxed set! P.S.: where the Hell is ""My Male Curiosity"" from the movie, ""Against All Odds""????"
+10266,2,Annabelle's Wish Is A Classic In Our Home,"This is just the best ""cartoon"" Christmas movie ever. And what a great message it gives us through Annabelle the cow. Annabelle teaches us by example that it is better to give than to receive. Her best friend is a little boy who is now mute because of his fear in a barn fire some time in the past. The boy has few friends, but the animals and a little girl who befriend him are true-blue. The boy is given his voice in the end from Santa because Annabelle gave up her wish to fly like the reindeer. It really is touching. You've got to get this one for the kids (and adults who are soft at heart)."
+10267,1,The Diabetes Diet - Bernstein,"I have read several books re diabetes -""Diabetes Revolution"" Atkins,""Diabetes w/Natural Medicine"" Michael Murphy (includes blood test info),""Type 2 Diabetes""Becker(so-so)and Diabetes Diet-Bernstein(no) Bernstein's ""Diabetes Solution"" is the best of all.Carol Schiffelbein"
+10268,2,"Best Book (tool) Ever, You Have to Have This Book!","This is the best little book. It is simple to use, easy to read and has the most information packed in between its covers. Includes fats, carbs, calories and proteins. Great for a diabetic and awesome for those of us who want to be aware of what they are eating! Color coded, easy to read pages, indexed very well! Also includes most popular restaurants so that you can actually see what you are about to eat. I buy a new one for every person I meet that is diabetic or who is about to embark on a diet. So much information in so little space! You have to have this book in your home!! You will LOVE it!"
+10269,2,Awesome Camera,"This camera takes awesome pictures and adequate videos. Prior to the Canon A640 I had a Kodak that gave me more problems than I care to discuss here. I decided to get this camera because of its compactness and versatility. I've had it for 5 months and have used it quite a bit, including on a 21-day expedition to Aconcagua in South America, and it has worked beautifully. The one problem that I've had with it is sometimes the shutter don't open fully, otherwise it works great and takes awesome pictures."
+10270,2,A must-have for the experienced and the novice collector.,"Whether collecting Depression glass is serious business or an enjoyable pastime, this book is an invaluable resource. The pattern listings, descriptions and examples are comprehensive, the clarity of the photographs makes identification a snap and the text is both informative and readable. Add in the very detailed information on reproduction pieces (both authorized and unauthorized)and the up-to-date pricing tables and you have a collecting aid that meets the needs of the expert and the neophyte alike."
+10271,2,A Brilliant Story! READ IT.,"Stevenson draws you deeper and deeper into this chilling tale of a frightening addiction. Dr. Jekyll is a man exploring the soul, who discovers something hidden inside himself. This book weaves artfully around the always horrific subject of the evil within us all. Stevenson's beautiful language and imagery envelopes us in his mind, holding us frozen until the very last page. This story is as magnifcant as it is eerie. I loved this book. READ IT.Afterward, you may not want to look too closely into the mirror..."
+10272,1,Not Really Worth The Money,"I bought this for my son for Christmas and when he hooked it up to his gamecube, one speaker didn't work at all and the other one the sound was so low you had to put your ear next to the speaker to hear it and that was with the sound turned all the way up!I returned it right away for refund."
+10273,1,Gaiam Balance Ball Chair,The chair does not slide easily and the ball is too small for sitting at a desk. I had to replace the ball with a larger size to use it. With the ball replaced it is comfortable and useful. But it shouldn't take all of this to make it work!
+10274,1,Does not conform to any actual practice. Harmful.,"If your goal is to prepare effectively and efficiently for legal practice, do not use this book. Not a soul actually uses the CREAC formula advocated here, and all you end up doing is unlearning terrible habits you were made to acquire during your first year. Use Aldisert or Neumann instead. The techniques taught in those books conform to real practice, and you will look much more competent and professional if you use them than if you do anything this book advises you to do. If you are not a captive audience, avoid this book at all costs. If you are made to use it in your first year skills course, take CREAC with a grain of salt and be prepared to fix the damage during your first summer job. The technique advocated by this book is simplistic, plodding, and simply does not begin to meet even minimal standards of professional legal writing."
+10275,2,Very informative but where are the Maps?,"I found this book to be very rewarding and interesting, but not without fault. I found the lack of maps (or the absence of a map with more of the placenames mentioned) in the book to be very annoying - and I confess I got geographically lost at some points. I found the book very well researched and some of the stories and anecdotes very entertaining. In fact, I wished that there could have been room for more traveller's stories within the book. I must say that I got a bit disorientated in the middel of the book but it came together well. The additon of many photographs (rare in a book of this type) was a fantasic bonus and really added to the enjoyment of the book. Overall a highly entertaining and educational book but would have been so much better with the addition of more detailed maps."
+10276,1,Misled and disappointed - this was not an enjoyable read,"From the synopsis and the style of cover art (very foolish of me I know), I had expected a romantic comedy. This was *definitely* not the book I received.Almost all the characters (as pointed out by an earlier reviewer) were not in the least endearing and any appeal that the lead female character had was a mystery to me: self sacrificing to the point of stupidity (I smell a burning martyr); absolutely no common sense although she was portrayed as being a wonderful mother; lost in her own little world with no grasp of reality ... The male lead was marginally better but he is portrayed as falling in love with her while she lurches uselessly from one problem to another. You cannot help but ask yourself, why? how?The writing was good, but the endless suffering of the characters made reading this book a chore rather than a pleasure."
+10277,1,not for xbox controller,reviews are misleading...not a 2.5mm for xbox controller...actually a 3.5mm...hate to waste the time returning it so i may keep it for my mp3 devices...my son is bummed
+10278,1,"Stopped working about 10 day and yanks hairs out, not cut them","Do not buy this. It yanks you hair out rather than cut them. Its flimsy and cheap as hell, made in china for probably less than $3 or $4. It also stopped working for no reason whatsoever after about 10 days without ever being dropped or anything.DO NOT BUY THIS."
+10279,1,Retred of the original,"This movie essentially just follows the same path as the original.* ""User"" gets sucked into the Grid.* User forced to take part in the games.* User escapes into computer ""wilderness""* USer travels across vast ""wilderness"" in order to leave/confront final villian.* User excapes back to the real world.This movie, however, does have superior special effects, but the idea of a world inside a computer (that each program is a little digital person) just does not work in this day and age. Overall, just eye candy with the same dull plot as the first.(Of course, if the little ""program"" people constantly ""froze"", with little hour glasses evenly, when there were too many of them in a room at the same time, I would have found it at least a little more realistic.)"
+10280,2,Replacement blades at a reasonable price,These replacement blades worked great when I needed to repair my AlienFly after flying it into the wall too many times!
+10281,2,Had No Problems With The TV,I dont see what you others are talking about cause i had one and it worked great so i dont see how you people can bash it.
+10282,1,Poor Writing Gets in the Way,"This should have been a fine book, but the author's stilted prose and misuse of words on every second page nearly ruined it for me. Dodman swings wildly from overly prim writing to embarrassingly slangy, a sure sign of a bad writer.Oliver Sacks, please report to the Veterinary School!"
+10283,1,Difficult to read and learn from,"I am an AP US History student and I foud this text was hard to read and study. Many pages are devoted to social issues and signifigant political events often recieve little or no attention. Trying to study for the AP test from this book is difficult because of the lack of information on some areas. The text does include many interesting details, but is not recomended for AP History students."
+10284,1,Nice..but,"I didn't notice any difference in the bugs, when using this device. Mayb in another environment... Still using it, but would recommend something else"
+10285,1,"Great sound quality, poor construction","I was very impressed with the sound quality of my Jawbone, but, as other reviewers have noted, the contruction quality is poor. I used the device for about three months before the earpiece separated from the main housing, and went through at least three earloops during that time. When a ruggedized version comes out, I'll be back on the customer list."
+10286,2,"We Love It, We Live It.","I felt as though Neil Diamond knew me and wrote these songs for my husband and I. these songs spoke to us, especially Drive, The Best Part of Me and Someone Special.We Love It! We Live It!Maria and Vince Ricciardelli"
+10287,2,Cool,i thought this book was brill i have not read a book were the characters write the book pual zindel is a great author and this book was great. it is about a oldish man called mr pignati and 2 16-17 year olds who go to visit him every day various events happen and mr pignati ends up dead great book i recommend it to any one who is mature not for young people
+10288,2,The Restless Gun,"We purchased The Restless Gun on 6/7/12, three DVD set with 24 episodes. We have until now completed the first disc and part way through the second, we have enjoyed each episode so far with very good storyline, acting with John Payne playing his role so well, and no doubt the quality of the picture and sound, no surprise there as this is what we receive each time with Amazon and Timeless Media Group. For those that like Westerns this is a good quality product."
+10289,1,guttermouth can't get any worse,"This CD is what you get when you mix a bunch of no talent fools with a record label that is known for putting out rotten records. Musical Monkey tries to deliver both humor and the sounds of hardcore punk but acheves neither. The cd tries to capture the well known antics of the band shows but it fails here as well. If you are a fan of so called ""humor punk"" stick to bands like NOFX and The Vandels."
+10290,1,Cool But Useless,"These keyboards are cute, portable, and spill-proof, but indestructable they're not. I've owned several and, after sending two of them back for replacement, wound up throwing them all out. After a couple of months (at best) several of the keys stop working, rendering them useless. This has happened too many times to be a fluke. An indestructable keyboard that fails under normal use? Don't bother."
+10291,2,Riotous,"Mercifully, Arianna injects enough humor into this book to keep the reader out of the inevitable funk that would come from the revelations inside. Well done."
+10292,1,unacceptable,supporting legs are much shorter than wheels. Doesn't hold balance even when it is empty. impossible to use. would not recommend
+10293,1,Don't buy if you like to wash in the dishwasher!,"One wash in the dishwasher top shelf and this egg slicer was toast. All the shiny metal turned into a gray/black oxidated metal. The only thing that didn't oxidize was the actual slicer. I guess that is the only part that is stainless steel, this rest must be untreated, unprotected aluminum. Even after scrubbing as much of the black residue off as I could, it still rubbed off onto my hands. Only buy this if you plan to handwash it!"
+10294,2,This Books Needs A DECENT MAP,"If you think things look troublesome today, you should have been there in 1776. And if you want to understand how a relatively few insurgents who truly believe in their cause can upset the plans of a mighty military, it is all here.McCullough writes it from a journalist point of view, and it almost seems as though you are reading a news account with background and analysis.While I REALLY like this book, I found the pictures of the English maps of the time almost useless, and there was no map that covered upper Manhattan where many of the battles he covered took place.There ought to be a law that all books like this must come with a general map with the author getting a gold star if he/she includes maps showing how the battles unfold.Craig Rodby"
+10295,2,Where is The Camping Episode and Survival of the Idiots???,It's not the happiest moments without those two! And if I go back to Seasons 1-4 there are several more that should be included. Maybe it would have been a better idea to make the 20 Happiest Moments instead!
+10296,1,Wish I knew then what I know now!,"I bought Web Easy Pro without knowing anything about web site design. Web Easy taught my quite a bit. for all I learned I wont' get my $... back for what I paid.

Then you have to juggle things through trial and error, then you might have it. Then it will pick an arbitrary page and make it your home page.Web spiders don't even stop by Web Easy pages, thats gotta hurt business!!! Oh, and for a kick if you use meta tags, Web Easy uses its' own instead of yours."
+10297,1,Skip it,Don't waste your time or money - his previous films are much better. Half the movie has to do with him recovering from being captured in Ong Bak 2 and from beatings the enemy gave him in the beginning of this picture. The fighting scenes aren't anything special either compared to what Tony Jaa is capable of doing.
+10298,2,My most beloved rainy day book,I adore this story -- the characters are so dimensional and developed. There is a poignacy to their scenes that I have not seen duplicated in other romance novels. I have read and re-read this book so many times its pathetic. I recommend this novel to anyone who wants to find out why we read this genre of books. Fan-bloody-tastic!
+10299,1,Spore: Disappointment,"When I first discovered that spore was coming out I was so excited. Even the videos I saw on youtube etc demonstrating it looked good. But once I got it, I was at the space phase in a matter of hours! The game is such a great idea but goes way too fast, it appears they cut out a lot of good stuff I saw in the preview videos. You should be able to build the whole planet like sim city. but the cities you create on this game are so dumb you can do nothing with it. Not to mention any building you create is going to look really dumb. And once you get to the space phase it's like a never ending snooze fest. I even bought the creature creator thing before it was released i was so excited. Once I got the game, total disappointment. Don't buy it! Maybe wait until spore 2!!"
+10300,1,Revolutionary? Not by a long shot.,"Agreed with the post that questioned the revolutionary message and mission. Certainly, they are revolutionaries of the sort who have come many, many times before. Well, actually as the years pass, these types of revolutionaries are more like tired retreads. Here's the message - break the yoke of the tyrants, and build a new one out of the collective power of the oppressed masses. Then use said yoke to drag everyone to destruction. They've got Marx down pat; unfortunately, they forgot to attend to the section in history that explained why Marxism failed so miserably and led to so much death."
+10301,2,Hilarious and disturbing,"I can't look at my teddy bears the same. I like ""Ted"", but its a humor that I think can hit or miss some audiences. Ted owns the show...Mark Wahlberg was ok. I am not use to Mark in this type of genre."
+10302,2,Snoopy's Christmas Canape Dish,"The presentation of packaging for this product is quite deluxe with it's burgundy box and gold-imprinted ""Lenox"" on the cover. My fiance's grandfather is an avid Snoopy memorabilia collector and has hundreds and hundreds of Snoopy collectibles in curio cabinets and displayed all over his house. I bought this on Amazon for his Christmas gift last year. However, when I opened the package, I was a little surprised. The colors are not as vivid as they appear on the web page picture. But it is still a nice, collectible piece and I am glad I got it for him."
+10303,2,Kirby's best game,"This game is VERY cool. Any one who liked the previous kirby game, or any one who loves N64 should enjoy this game. This game is kind of 2-D so some people may not like it. But it is still fun too play. It has many other fetures such as mini-games and sound check. Buy this game"
+10304,2,the best rock album in the world ever! part 13.265,a class album which may just have been released 10 years too late. it captures the fantastically arrogant rock-god posturing of the 80's with some very memorable/cheesy riffs. dont get me wrong i think this album is wicked but i can see why people might not like it. Its the perfect album when youve got sick of the radio stations in gta: vice city on the ps2!...
+10305,2,Great buy on a great heater,This little heater was bought to replace a heater 3 times its size & it puts out more heat! Would recommend it to anyone.
+10306,1,Don't waste your money on this product.,"I had been a long time user of ACT since '99. Back when it was a Symantic product. I Bought Act! 2000 and had used it up until a few weeks ago. It did everything I needed it to, so I never needed to upgrade. That is until we upgraded to MS Office 2003 and the word processor stopped working with the mail merge.I wish I had read these reviews before I bought ACT! 8. It took a month for them to ship it to me. It took 3 days & numerous tries to install it, and it still doesn't run right.It's so slow It's barely usable.Want to find a contact? please wait 30 secondsWant to write a letter? another 30 seconds.Oh and I'm running a brand new Dell laptop, with lots of power.No, this program is garbage. Complete waste of money."
+10307,2,"Finally, a programming book I can learn from!!","For the last couple years I have aimlessly wandered from one perl book to another and gotten nowhere. Not being a programmer many of the books were just too hard to follow or intoduced too many concepts at one time in a way that made absolutlely no sense. But today, I picked up the llama book and that all changed. After only a couple hours, I had already written some useful (very simple) programs without, and I repeat without having to refer back to the book. Not only that, I cannot wait to read the next chapter, I am totally jazzed. Thank you Randal L. Schwartz."
+10308,2,Clearly presented ideas,"As a former student of Professor Jacoby at UCLA, I felt that this was a wonderful book explaining his philosophy on the fall of Utopian thinking. His knowledge on the subject comes through as clearly as it did in class. This should be a must read for anyone interested in why we no longer dream of a perfect society to exist in the future, and have become content with something that falls dramatically short of it."
+10309,1,Can't understand all the other good reviews,"This item is nicely made, and the arm rotates nicely, and doesn't jiggle with the Garmin attached.It seemed to work OK at first, then I noticed it, more and more, sliding all over the place, frequently sliding off the dash and onto the floor. I don't Armor-All the dashboards and keep them pretty free of dust, so I don't know what the deal is. Maybe, it just took a week or two of ""normal"" exposure to heat/sun and getting some minimal dust in the soft foam underpad to kill it. Maybe I just started to drive more normal rather than so slowly while paying attention to the GPS. In the end, I wound up going back to the windshield mount because it just never comes off. To me, the whole thing sliding onto the floor is a major safety hazard I was not willing to accept."
+10310,2,Terrific Futon,We received the futon mattress quickly over the holidays.We love the mattress. It is thick and comfortable and looks great. It has changed the whole nature of our living room.We are very pleased.
+10311,1,Poor fit,"Despite being advertised as a ""replacement"" cap, the cap doesn't fit very well and isn't like the original cap at all."
+10312,2,Better Than the Others,"True you have to wait a little while when you change clothes or location but it its not very long and they play music you find yourself dancing to. What is great about this game is (1) You get to go to work with your Sim and you are actually doing the work. I highly recommend the bartending and the sushi shop. They are fun. And you get more money. (2) There is no limit to how much you can put in your house. It drove me crazy in Bustin Out when I had 100,000 Sim bucks and I couldn't add more furniture cause it as maxed out. (3) If you suck at keeping friends like I did then this game is def for you. All you have to do is keep interacting with any other Sim and you get rep. Its easy.The only downer I unlocked most the stuff in two days but its still fun."
+10313,1,Not satisfied,"I am personally not satisfied with this product. I would not buy it again, too much oil in it."
+10314,2,Wonderful,I had some huge AIWA wireless headphones and finally got these for a very low prize. I am very pleased with them. Could not have chosen better!
+10315,1,Come ON!,"there should be some kind of return policy. Or if there is, make the date line more expansive! Make sure you know your shoe size like the back of your hand because if theses don't fit, well, you're screwed!"
+10316,1,"Item Defective, Returned Item promptly, Seller did not refund","What else is there to say? if you are selling a candy mold that is suppodly designed to make candy, then if the item ""collapses"" when you pour the hot sugar mixture into the mold, AND you BURN yourself, then, why not refund the purchase entirely AND go back to the manufacturer? First time we had a mold fail. Returned item at my own expense with a letter explaining the mold FAILED and I ended up in Urgent Care with 3rd degree burns. Seller wrote letter back and said ""Item was used so we are going to give you a partial refund."" How about I send them the bill for the injuries sustained as a result of a poor quality product?Avoid .... this ..... Seller"
+10317,2,Red Hot Explosion of Musical Joy,"This album is without a doubt the greatest thing that I have heard in a long time. It's a unique sound that moves and flows so beautifully. There are all kinds of instruments and vocals volleying back and forth. Little sounds are perfectly injected to create an overwhelming compilation that will lift you up and suck you in. It's hard to believe that it took a bunch of hicks from Georgia to blend rock, country, and world beat into the perfect sound."
+10318,1,"Has an off-taste, weak","I was really excited by Better Than Bouillon. Especially when making risotto, I have been searching for a good chicken bouillon to make life easier.Preparing it is very simple, and the jar sits easily in the fridge.The taste is, however, lack luster. I found myself adding extra just to get any real flavor, and even then, there was no strong chicken taste. Didn't serve to heighten the flavors, or add aroma.Given the high price (and the Amazon price is higher than in many stores), this isn't worth it. Knorr's very salty bouillon is still better."
+10319,1,Red Hat Linux Bible,"I bought this book with great anticipation, however as I started the install it went to frustration. I know nothing of Linux when I started this, and it became a disapointment. The information in the book generaly does not line up with the Linux I installed from the CD that came with it. Also the comands that he talkes about wer not present when I tried them. allot of the setup comands you have to install manualy, I had to do allot of trial and error. His book is also badly organized I find, I found my self fliping to differant sections of the book for the same item. Some of the instructions for setup at the install are in the middle of the book. This may be a good book for when you know what you are doing, but I dont recomend it for the beginner."
+10320,2,A Diamond in the Rough!!!,"I loved this Movie ..I connected on some level to the Love of my life in my younger days and I could feel the wonderful vunerability of being in Love at such a irresponsible age ,when nothing was of consequence except your feelings for that person and her feelings for you ...nobody else mattered ...Life was so simple then ...no complications ...and then we Grow up(Mature) and we are told what we should look for in a Lifetime partner !!!..But these two Beautiful individuals in this movie make we believe that I was not wrong in how I felt twenty years ago ..and maybe there is still hope that I find my True love and feel the Passion all over again ...all the cast give superb performances...Enjoy .."
+10321,2,Le Tour Du Monde,"I chose this title after the anniversary of Jules Verne's birth was celebrated with a ""google"" icon. I don't believe that I have ever read this JV tale before this reading. I am not quite sure what to make of this story. Certainly it has inspired many adaptations over the years as have many of Verne stories. Phileas Fogg is a hero unlike any others in my experience of reading. He has absolute faith and his stoicism is a bit off putting. How we come to root for him in his quest is somewhat of a mystery until an incident (no spoiler here) midway through the book. I will also not give away the surprise at the conclusion of the voyage. Though in this day I would not expect that modern readers will be surprised. Jules Verne does foreshadow the ending quite a bit.Thank you Kindle for making this and other Verne titles available."
+10322,1,The system didn't work in the long haul,"I first read this book in my teens, twenty-five years ago. I thought it was wonderful and I based a large part of my life and who I was on its instructions. It worked to some extent - people told me I was very feminine. Well, being feminine didn't do me much good. Here I am, twenty-five years later, with a husband who refuses to work or be a father to his children. I am the family's breadwinner and the children's guide and disciplinarian. My husband lives at home like a overgrown teenager who lets Mom bear all the responsibilities. I feel like I've been duped. I based my life on system that didn't deliver for me."
+10323,1,Pretty pointless,"Romantic comedies aren't the greatest of movies to start off with, but this one is even worse than most. It's not clear why anybody ever produced it. It seems really sloppily done. The acting is horrible - even Jennifer Love Hewitt, who's not half bad. The filming screams ""made-for-TV"". The script and plot seem like they were phoned in by a teenage writer. There's no character or humor. The only part that made me laughed was the postcard from the African orphan. Still, I gave this movie 2 instead of 1 stars because we get to see Jennifer Love Hewitt in bikinis and she still looks good."
+10324,1,disaster!,The description looked great - I have other jersey sheets which I like very much for for spring and fall weight. Turns out these are terminally cheap - so light weight they can't hold shape an feel cheesey as they keep coming off the mattress!Save your money!
+10325,1,Waste of time,"I'm a sailor & this is one of the worst books I have ever read. Even the cheapest ""how to start sailing"" books have more enthusiasm about sailing, unless the copy I have read was badly translated. I felt like the author needs to write a book for living and asks himself; what past experience do I have that I can use for this book? Its far-fetched analogy made me wonder the authenticity of the childhood memories. On the other hand if I needed a book for managment or life style etc. there are much better books which does not necessarly have to be about sailing. In short, I will not waste space in my limited library space by keeping this book."
+10326,2,Excellence!,"I had almost forgotten about this album by Linda Ronstadt, until I was browsing through Amazon and re-discovered it. I really enjoyed Linda's voice, and the Spanish flavor of the entire selection!"
+10327,2,"Puts ""White Blood Cells"" to shame","First of all, do NOT listen to any other reviews written thus far. THERE IS NO BASS ANYWHERE IN THE WHITE STRIPES. If anybody looked in to it or had any musical talent, they would know that Jack is using an Octave pedal, which takes down the sound of every string by 1 or 2 octaves. This gives the impression that there is bass used. But I can guarantee that there is no bass used by the White Stripes. I never want to hear such claims about an excellent band again, especially by complete idiots. Anyway, every song is awesome."
+10328,1,mediocre,"Not particularly scary, and rather ridiculous at times. It wasn't horrible, but it was still a let down. I was a little impatient about the film just finally ending."
+10329,2,excellent larry shows,LARRY THE CABLE GUY OUT DID HIMSELF WITH THESE 2 MOVIES AND HOPES HE CONTINUES WITH MORE ONLY IN AMERICA SERIES - THANKS
+10330,2,a very good book......,"I read this book because a friend reccomended it to me. i found it very interesting, and i couldn't stop reading it. i have read better books (like ""nobody's boy"") but i also reccomend this book to you. i'm sure you'll enjoy it."
+10331,2,Take Me Back,"I was working in college radio when this album appeared. Shortly there-after, Robert Gordon showed up for a concert in the coffee house in front of maybe 150 people. He was a superb showman and one of the best I have ever seen. The two guys blazing away on their Telecasters was something to be seen. This album, with the song writing skills of Marshall Crenshaw and T. Bone Burnett (remember his nifty tune ""Diamonds are a Girl's Best Friend""), is an even and thouroughly enjoyable piece of work. It was released in the middle of the Rockabiliy revival of the early 80s and was the best of the bunch. I especially enjoy the bonus tracks including Red Hot with Link Ray. One of Gordon's best singles (but not good enough to justify buying the less endearing album it was released on) and now a favorite of my 9 and 11 year old children."
+10332,2,Crumb sings!,"This is a thoroughly delightful disc, one I listen to frequently. It's also one of the two Cheap Suits' discs that you can easily find, at least in my experience. Grab it and growl. Crumb has nice 20's falsetto voice that does the material enjoyable justice and the instrumentals are lovingly played. Yeah, there are a few missed notes here and there, but this is just super stuff. Thanks to R. Crumb for pointing us in the direction of this music. There are hundreds and hundreds of discs coming out with rarities that used to only be heard in the basements of collectors. Learn more about the beauties of American music before WW2. You can start right here."
+10333,2,Jackie Robinson Review ...,"The Story of Jackie Robinson: Bravest Man in Baseball is about the struggles of one black man who never gave up. Jackie Robinson was a great athlete in college and wanted to go to the Major's but they wouldn't let him because he was black. The general manager of the Brooklyn Dodgers, Branch Rickey took a chance on Jackie. Rickey said would let him play if he didn't fight back over racial slurs and attacks. This was known as the ""Noble Experiment"". Jackie's team looked down on him and fans harassed him because of the color of his skin. At last everybody realized Robinson was a great guy and that the color of a person's skin doesn't mater. In the end Jackie Robinson won the admiration of all American people. I think that you should read this book because it shows someone with great courage."
+10334,2,Exceeded expectations!!,"After listening to ""Dolphin's Cry"" infinate times before Distance to Here came out, I knew I would get the CD, but didn't know if I'd be totally happy with it (it's my first and only (for now) Live CD). I was WAAAAY happy with my purchase! The first 6 tracks or so are the best, the rest are a little weak, but the CD is worth the money just for ""Run to the Water,"" ""Dolphin's Cry,"" and ""Sparkle."" You WON'T be disappointed with this cd!"
+10335,2,Exquisite!,"I love this creamer and sugar bowl - they are just beautiful! And I've actually used them in some of my highly realistic oil paintings as I love painting reflections. This set reflects items nearby, wonderfully well, and of course, we love using this creamer and sugar bowl!"
+10336,2,One of the best fantasy movies and true to it's name!,"This movie is by far one of the best, if not the best Fantasy movie of all time and unlike some game based movies, creates the feeling of the game. Although some people who either don't like or are unfamilar with the game may not like it, I don't know why those people have to discourage everone else who might see it , those who like Dungeons & Dragons and other Roll Playing Games (RPGs) will almost certainly love this movie.The movie has everthing you would expect out of game Heros, Vilans, Monsters, Magic, Magic Weapons, Etc.If you like the game or are into fantasy movies then you have to see Dungeons & Dragons!if you don't like fantasy movies,unless you have a valid point, don't write reviews that might discourage people who like fantasy from getting this one just because you personally didn't like it and stick to writing reviews for movies you do like."
+10337,2,Not much to say,"It's a ball joint, it works! what else can one say. I have had terrible luck with my balljoints so far."
+10338,2,The Count,"I am a Monte Cristo fan and I have all versions but one - the Richard Chamberlain version (anyone wanting to sell?) - and I rate this as good, although highlighting different parts of the original story. A fantastic and entertaining film."
+10339,2,toddler aerobed,"bought them for my 3 1/2 yr old grand children for Christmas and they absolutely love them. Shipment arrived promptly. They are easy to inflate and deflate. My son takes them with them everywhere they go. The only drawback is if you are in the same room with the kids, the beds make noise if the kids toss and turn a lot."
+10340,2,"A ""Whistle Down The Wind"" promotion, but still top notch.","Wow! What can I say? Try to image a concert full of the most talented singers in the world singing some the most beautiful songs in the world. It seemed that the concert was basically one big promotion of ALW's new musical, Whistle Down The Wind, but the songs from there are amazing, so all's forgiven. P.S. Antonio Banderas is one UNIQUE Phantom. His performance with Sarah Brightman is NOT to be missed!"
+10341,2,Better than the movie. Obviously.,"I admit it, this is the first bond book I actually read. I understand why it has captivated a few generations. Great action, smart descriptions and perfect tone.Simple, elegant spy novel."
+10342,2,Don't watch this at night by yourself!,"A terrific scary movie! Great performances, classic black and white, good production values, a cute dog, and Ray Milland; what more could you ask for? I saw this first as a teenager, and I have seen it again many times since then, and still enjoy it every time. See it immediately!"
+10343,1,boring,i have many paranormal/documentary dvd's and found this to be quite boring I really disliked the medium Cathy. I found her quite annoying. Have seen much better. I disliked that they did not give a good history about each inn. Felt a little left out in the cold about some of the facts they were talking about and felt they should have given more information.
+10344,1,Why does everyone find this to be so incredible?,"Okay, the cd is not THAT bad. But green day has lost whatever it was that made them green day in the first place. They dont have the attitude anymore, they dont play music that defines them. Its like they did this because they realized they needed to do something different to get noticed. And hey, they achieved that, so good for them. But for people like me, who appreciated who they were before, and now have to deal with it playing on every radio station and channel on tv atthe same time until I want to blow my head off, its not so good. Listen to some real ""concept albums"" done by some real bands, and see what musical genius is. Just cuz MTV says theyre gods now doesnt mean that they are. Calm down people."
+10345,2,I AM IMPRESSED!,"What could be better, Alvin Lee slowed down to a musically understandablepace, and The King's side men sped up to a musically enjoyable pace, whowould of thunk it! I look at this CD-""In Tennessee"", with my ears, andfind no fault. Talk about one of those 70's super groups, thisunasunming but unbelivealbly good CD puts them to shame, not a note outof place, every muscian knew where they were going, and the flow of thealbum was as mighty as the mississippi right up to the end. What an endto the CD, ""I'm Going Home"", oh fellow babies, you could compare it tothe Ten Years After version, and be hard pressed to choose between themfor the best one. This is a must buy CD if you like well producedRock/Country fusion with musicians that have a feel for the music, andarn't affraid to play it."
+10346,1,Enough already?,"Only reason to continue the series at this point would be to see how many more pages it takes for Ayla to invent The Wheel (and is anyone else as irritated as I am by the constant capitalized spellings for nearly every activity from ceremonies to having sex?) Seriously, I can guess why Auel is constantly rehashing material from earlier books--to hide the lack of a story or interesting new characters--and I had particularly looked forward to meeting Zelandoni, the previous great love of Jondalar's life. For an entertaining and far quicker read on the subject of Stone Age life, read Joan Wolf's trilogy(Daughter of the Red Deer, The Horsemasters, The Reindeer Hunters). I've recently reread the book, and while still giving only two stars, I must say that it reads faster the second time around--maybe because of knowing which segments to skip over altogether!"
+10347,1,WARNING!,"Stay away from this one. When I opened the package everything inside was covered with a film of some kind of black dust. The instruction booklet was written by someone with severe language (English) problems. One of a hundred examples: ""Avoid children pampering."" The instructions would have been humorous if they had been comprehensible. I am reasonably intelligent and mechanically astute but some of the instructions were impenetrable. Activating and deactivating remotely by phone has a serious shortcoming. Dunno about you but I want to leave my answering machine on while I am traveling; the remote activate/deactivate cannot be done unless you leave your answering machine turned off. The instruction booklet tells you this - but the promotional material doesn't. I have to believe that some of these positive reviews here have been written by someone from the company (who might have better spent time writing the instruction booklet)."
+10348,1,Sounds awful,"Picked these up last night and they really sound bad. There seems to be a lot of artifacts in the sound from the digital signal processing. Also, they recommend you not separate the speakers by more than 24"". That's hard with a large monitor. The quality of materials is top notch though. I expected allot better sound quality from Bose, especially considering the price. Listening to one of my favorite CDs for about five minutes over them actually made me nauseous. I returned them to the store this morning for a full refund."
+10349,1,SECRETS & LIES CHINESE IMPORT,"This is my favorite film of alltime and I got so excited that it was available, that I didn't notice it was a Chinese import. The quality of the DVD is LOUSY at best. I'm not even sure it's not a bootleg. DO NOT BUY! Wait for a decent quality version."
+10350,1,Only works for stupid cats.,"I thought this would be a great idea for my cat who loves to climb all over surfaces where she's not allowed. And it's true that she doesn't like to step on it. On the other hand, my cat quickly learned to avoid the mat itself rather than whatever surface it happened to be on. So if I put the mat on the kitchen counter, she'll stay off the kitchen counter--but if I move it to the dining room table, she'll recognize that it's no longer on the counter and she'll be all over the counter. In other words, in order for this product to be effective, I would have to have one covering every single area where I didn't want my cat and leave them there 24/7. Cats are pretty smart, and I have a hard time believing that most wouldn't recognize that the mat itself is the thing they need to avoid rather than the surface where the mat is sitting."
+10351,2,A Great Tool for Young Writers,"The Thesaurus for Kids is a wonderful writing tool for beginning authors or for children who want to erase ""wimpy"" words from their writing pieces. It opens up the amazing world of words for young scribes!"
+10352,1,THESE ARE NOT PUPPY PADS!!!!!!!!,THESE ARE PADS USED ON ELDERLY PEOPLE WHO HAVE TROUBLE GOING TO THE BATHROOM. THIS COMPANY SHOULD BE HONEST AND LET THE PEOPLE WHO ARE CONSIDERING BUYING THEM KNOW THAT THEY ARE NOT PUPPY TRAINING PADS. PUPPY TRAINING PADS HAVE A SPECIAL SCENT ON THEM TO ENCOURAGE THE DOG TO USE IT. DON'T BE FOOLED!!! DO NOT BUY FROM THIS COMPANY!!!!!!
+10353,2,Nursing Ease,"As to the one-star reviews which say you HAVE to get out of bed, well, not if you are breastfeeding and you know how to nurse lying down!!! If you learn how to do this, the co-sleeper is GREAT, if you don't learn how to nurse lying down, or you are bottlefeeding, then this product WOULD NOT be helpful."
+10354,1,"Dumbest,sickest movie I have ever watched","I wish I could demand my money back from the directors and producers of this stupid so called movie, made me sick to watch it, anyone buying this movie including myself is just throwing their money away..."
+10355,2,A wonderful translation of a great play,"A second reading of ""angry reader's"" comment should make it clear that it is a Freudian joke. I don't know why you guys are so stinting with your stars. This is a beautiful translation of one of the great plays."
+10356,2,OK if you want some simple German lesons for a vacation,"I purchased this book to help me in my German class in college. It was not that useful in helping me understand German grammar and sentence structure at a college level. I gave it 4 stars, not because it helped me in my German class, but because I think it is a good down-and-dirty book for learning the language and customs if you will only be spending a short time in Germany. This book might also by good as a refresher for people who have already taken a German class but forgot most of what they learned."
+10357,1,Very Interesting Person/Very Amateur Documentary,This doc only whetted my appetite to learn more about the life of Chrysis. It teased me and then did not get the job done! What a loss. Maybe someone else will make a decent documentary about Chrysis.
+10358,1,Inflated Price,"This paper-slot top to the Slim Jim recycling container fits the description. Nothing is else positive about this product, especially the price, which at $30 is ridiculous! It doesn't even snap on the top of the container; it is just held in place by the lid's overlapping edges. I give this two stars because I believe the inflated price is a big negative factor. Please comment if there is a generic brand lid available that fit Slim Jim 3540, 3541, 3554 containers."
+10359,1,Poorly written and ill-organised,This could have been a very good book but the author seems to suffer from an inability to identify with an audience that doesn't already know the material.The material is all there and if you struggle through it you can find alot of useful insights...but more times than not the struggle isn't worth it. I can't suggest getting it unless you feel compelled to collect books on Apache or are in desperate need of more documentation.
+10360,2,Survivor Series 2007 A Good Show,I think this years survivor series surpassed last years due to the fact it had two big time main events in randy orton vs michaels and Taker vs Batista HITC Dream match for many. It was good seeing randy orton and shawn have a pure wrestling match and the ending was also very good to me Ecw also had their best ppv by far all the competiors looked good and no one knew who was gonna win good show for the young stars the HITC with taker and batista was also good but the crowd seemed a bit dead maybe because of the awe of it but regardless these two had a battle hard fought it was a little cheap but Im sure this one aint over quite yet all in all this ppv was worth the money and one I will add to the collection now I just cant wait till the rumble -Robert V.
+10361,2,One of a Kind,Third lens I've purchased and by far the most fun. The price was hard to swallow but I haven't regretted it once. The shallow depth of field and telephoto abilities make this lens worth every penny. It's awesome.
+10362,1,Continuous line quilt patterns,If I had known what it was I wouldn't have bought it. Simple designs that anyone can do with a couple pieces of graph paper.
+10363,1,Disappointing,"For the price I paid, I guess I shouldn't have expected too much, but I really can't even use his thermometer. Checking visually for doneness is about as reliable. It takes so long for the temperature to register that the food loses heat while you are checking its temperature, and if it is not done then it just has to cook longer because it takes over a minute for the needle to register 160 degrees."
+10364,1,One of the more boring Disney films I've ever seen.,"I am a big Disney film fan, animated or live-action. But this film, 1963's ""The Incredible Journey"" just didn't cut it. During most of the film, there is almost no dialogue except for a boring narration of the story by Rex Allen. I liked the remake, 1993's ""Homeward Bound"", much better because it had human actors doing the voices of the animals. They gave the story a lot more spark, spice, action, and adventure, as well as a lot of humor. I believe that an adventure story with animals needs a lot of action and humor, especially in the case of ""The Incredible Journey"". Unfortunately, this 1963 Disney adventure has virtually no action or humor or even adventure; it's pretty much an extended version of Walt Disney's True-Life nature documentaries he made during the 1950's."
+10365,1,Crappy Product -> Crappy Hands,"I honestly do not understand the positive reviews this product is getting. I've never used the DG1, but I've only used the DG2 for less than a week and will be going to purchase some other diaper disposal system today. I guess the system keeps down the smell OK, but I'm not sure that it's totally worth it to have to get excrement on your hands every time you change a diaper. As mentioned by previous posters, there is a spring mounted mechanism that makes you forcibly push the dirty diaper down into the contraption. If the diaper is full, squishing it up against the odor locking door forces the diaper's contents to come out. I just don't get how this is a good system. I honestly don't think buying the refills are all that burdensome since they aren't too much more expensive than garbage bags, my main beef is the ease-of-use and sanitary aspects of the product. Would not recommend!"
+10366,2,Social Studies Educators: You Need This Book!,"This most excellent collection of fifty-two key documents in U.S.History from 1785 to 1974 illuminates the themes of social and political interactions that have moved this country. The Civil Rights Mini Unit is especially powerful and includes student data retreival charts, timelines, discussion and debate questions as well as such items as the actual amendments, astonishing photographs of ""Separate But Equal"" schools, etc. The actual coded version of the Zimmerman Telegram is as fascinating as Truman's revisions on the memo to recognize Israel. Great teaching suggestions on analyzing Federalism and students will love Eisenhower's response to Elvis as a Roc'n Roll Hero. This is a winner for active learning."
+10367,1,NOTHING TO SEE HERE !,This show was miserable from the start. Its no wonder it was canceled on 2 occasions. How it lasted as long as it did is a miracle. How something so bad survived is beyond logic. THe acting is putrid and the scripts are just awful. Dont waste your time here
+10368,2,Rena's Promise,Such a good read. It's un-imaginable things like this happened in my life time. We think times are hard for us now. This book is a story or Real hard times. It makes me appreciate what I have.I would love to have met these 2 sisters. They were remarkably strong.
+10369,1,Ramblin Stream of disorganized ocassionally useful information,"Good luck getting a workable plan out of this book. It is so chopped up and convaluted you will pull your hair out. Yes there is some useful information hidden within the pages, but the plan is pretty much absent in any kind of clear concise way. The autor is a pastor with a masters, probably in pastoral studies, and I am sure he paid off the MD to put his name on the cover.A few clever analogies and a smattering of studies (500 kids) dont come close to quality research.Go with mindell - sleeping through the night -I'd trust the associate director of the sleep disorders center at a childrens hospital - with a PHD, way more than this guy."
+10370,2,Why I Love this Book but Hate Its Author,"The book's better than anything I've read this year, the dude's probably a genius, and according to two friends he's supposedly dating Nora Jones."
+10371,2,More ideas,"Wong and Wong is a great resource for all teachers, but it is true that it is intended more for the elementary classroom. If you are looking for a practical guide, especially for new teachers, read A Lesson Plan for Teachers, New and Old. It is a more practical approach to the real incidents and experiences faced by seconday level teachers."
+10372,2,Mariah never disappoints,"Mariah never disappoints her readers. I found this book to be as great as all her others. Her characters are believable and so are her story lines. I highly recommend this book and any of her others. Having read one, you also will be ""hooked""."
+10373,1,"the movie is great, but the two on dvd i received are NOT coded for the USA!!!","this is suppose to be a multi-national, coded dvd, but 2 for 2 were rejected by my new dvd player. i then placed both into my lap-top and a message displayed that 2/5 codes worked while 3 were inactive (USA, being 1/3 inactive codes). so, don't purchase this dvd unless you watch it on your computer online. HOWEEVER, the movie is excellent!!! it is totally clean, comical, with some drama, romance, and warmth of humanity. so i have cept one of the 'not coded for the USA' copies for my laptop, because i cannot get it anyother way apparently. NOT EVEN FROM AMAZON!"
+10374,1,Not looking good,I ordered this item dec. 28 and It still hasn't shipped yet{ jan. 20 } so I couldn't say.
+10375,2,It is ok,Don't come with instruction and have to go to YouTube to learn how to use it. The price is good and meet my minimal needs.
+10376,2,Amazing,"Tyler is such an amazing artist. On January 15, 2005, I saw Tyler perform live at the WIOG Winter WonderJam. Impressive! I had gone to that show for Jesse McCartney, but I left addicted to Tyler. I went home soon after and learned everything I could about Tyler and bought his CD. Everything about his CD is great. All of the songs have amazing lyrics and music behind them. Tyler's voice is sexy and he has major talent! Buy this CD!!!!"
+10377,1,little food processor that barely could,"Having owned and used both the next size up mini-processor and the very big brother, when the motor failed on my old dlc-2, i immediately ordered this as a good replacement...well, that was wrong!! First, this unit is smaller, and even a little smaller makes a big difference as you cant really fill these to the top. Second, this unit lacks the convenient bi-directional rotation of the next model up...this one has two speeds, but only turns in one direction. To change from chop to grind, you have to remove the blade completely, turn it over and then reinsert it in the machine. Finally, while this unit does nice work on very soft and very small items, it is not very good with any item of any size or hardness. So, if you work mostly in small quantities with very small or soft ingredients, this is probably OK. If not, spend a few more bucks and save yourself a lot of grief. For $10 more, you get double the machine!!"
+10378,2,Something Fishy Here,"A useful book with 135 pages of recipes, with additional information on nutritional and health benefits, preparation tips (e.g., shucking an oyster), and safety instructions for the cook and angler. Recipes are easy and uncluttered, with very tasty results. The book includes separate chapters on appetizers, soups and stews, sandwiches, salads, finfish, shellfish, microwaving, and baking, and special occasions (for example, oyster stuffing and Thanksgiving salmon, an everyone's favorite (?), a Sunday dinner of ""Halibut Pot Roast.""One complaint is that there are not enough baked fish recipes (nor are there menu or wine suggestions). However, this is an excellent introduction to the whys and hows of some delicious fish dishes. With numerous tables (including nutritional and texture comparisons, and cooking and grilling techniques), index, and nutritional and diabetic exchange information for each recipe."
+10379,2,Wonderful film!,"This film is so enjoyable to watch. The story is of a girl who is born in a wealthy, famous family who has a curse on them that the first baby girl born will be born with a pig's nose. Christina Ricci plays Penelope, and her performance is flawless. Her character is someone you just root for the entire film, and it is so amazing that her will is so strong and her reactions to her deformity is so different than those of the people around her. I won't say more because I don't want to give too much away! But, I was not sure how I would like this movie, but I loved it. Its insipiring, and not only a fun film to watch, its also so beautiful. The art directing and the camera work are so gorgeous, and the movie has this fantasy/ fairy tale quality, while at the same time feeling modern and present-day. I would highly recommend this movie for its acting from Ricci, and Reece Witherspoon, and James McAvoy, the characters, moral, and sheer entertainment."
+10380,2,Indispensable,"This book will answer more questions than you knew you had, and all the ones you know you have. An excellent resource."
+10381,2,Techno-Villain Does His Best,"Wow! The villain in this story is superb. You start out respecting him the way you respect any lethal creature, and as it goes on you get frightened by this zealot on a crusade. Sort of the way you get spooked by that bug you just crushed that keeps on coming, except this one will kill you if your not watchful. Plus the technology stays fairly common place Butler Jack just leverages it for his evil purposes. Great read..."
+10382,1,Has not stood the test of time,"Back in the day, I purchased the 12"" version of ""So you like what you see"". The Teddy Riley remix was slamming. Not sure why I didn't buy the Album, but whilst I have been trying to update my collection, I came across this on Amazon and thought I'd cop it. I was extremely disappointed. I got a clue to now bad this CD was by reading the lyrics to the songs. Even then I thought 'well, it could be all about the groove'. Wrong again. 16 odd years after its release, this sounds dated, and tired. I've only given it 2 because of the afore mentioned ""So you like""."
+10383,1,This book is CRAP!!!,"OK--I give any author credit for actually writing a book. But don't pass off your first draft as a piece of literature. Typos, spelling errors and grammatical mistakes are abundant. I can appreciate self-publishing but every word processing program comes with spell check. Use it!The idea of Blackfunk as an aggressive sexual act designed to inflict excrutiating pain and tissue damage, to the point of death, is ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS. The whole concept is preposterous. I like Rashaun and Andria as two people finding each other, releasing their demons, and trying to build a life together amidst the backdrop of contemporary Black love. That's fine. Give me that story. Not this convoluted storyline based on the premise of destructive sex.Finally, do not write a book with a BS ending, only to attach an equally poorly written excerpt of the sequel, to entice me to read the next book. Write a complete novel the first time."
+10384,2,"Way before ""office space"" there was ""9 to 5""!","This is a very funny movie that takes place in office building run by Dabney Coleman. Way before ""Office Space"" this was a office workers or workers fun movie to get back at your boss(if you hated them!!) .The cast is wonnderful in their roles as well the title song. For fun watch this movie and ""office space"" . They're very similar to each other!! The times may haved changed but not workplace issues! Both [men and women] can relate to this movie!!I love this movie,it's one of my favorite movies from the 1980's..."
+10385,2,Best (and Worst) Practices,"I was looking for theory; so I was initially disappointed, but once I got past that I started enjoying it as a catalogue of both best and worst practices. It's funny. There's a particularly good example of how to use a toilet bib."
+10386,2,"Sharp, predictable. expectations met.","This router bit does exactly what it claims. Bevels a 30* edge with a fair degree of precision and consistency. Would have given it five stars, but my expectations were met, but not exceeded. This is a good tool. Used the router to build a rod-building planing form to home build a bamboo fly rod. Worked within the tolerances needed."
+10387,1,Boring,this was mark coleman being mismatched with a bunch of guys that he outclassed. bohlander and abbott were on the other side of the bracket and werent able to advance for one reason or another. ufc 10 was better.
+10388,1,Safety 1st Tubside seat - NO IMPROVEMENT,"I bought this seat in hopes that it would solve my bathtime issues, but it failed miserably. It hooks onto the tub, but I have the tubsider already, so it was overkill. The issue is that my daughter's legs still get caught when I am trying to get her out. This is just another scam to get parents to spend more money on a useless baby product."
+10389,1,how many sock puppets does it take????,"should be the opening line of a bad joke, but when someone MENTIONED in the book, maligns the SUBJECT of the book, while hiding behind the sweetness and light moniker ASKSPIRIT, me thinks something smells rotten in stinkville.pee-u!!!!"
+10390,2,Required reading for all adoptive parents.,"The Question of David should be required reading for all adoptive and prospective adoptive parents. Their disabilities notwithstanding, the Jacobsons took on a huge responsibility with unlimited risk by adopting a child thought to have disabilities of his own. I laughed and cried and ached all through the story. As an adoptive parent of a child with ADHD, I found Denise's struggle with day-to-day issues an inspiration. How does she do it? Cheers to the Jacobson's and to David!"
+10391,2,Pool cover,This product is very well made and is easy for one person to cover the pool. We have used it all summer and it is like new....buy it.
+10392,1,This single pisses me off!,Why in the hell are Love II Infinity and Track Masters remixes radio edits? I thought the purpose of a Maxi single was for long versions. This single focuses more on the Hip-Hop genre with all the Hip-Hop remixes but those who like club mixes get screwed for their money.One plus side for this pathetic excuse for a Maxi cd single is that there is the Frankie Knuckles remix for Rock With You in all it's 7:45 of glory! The Hani remix for Earth Song is halved. That sucker clocks in at over 14 minutes long.Grrrrrrrrr!
+10393,2,"outstanding, jesus knows our pains.","My first book. I'm hooked on LUCADO books. This book proves that he was human and he went through many of the same kinds of heartaches, doubts, fears, and trials that we go through. a great way to realize that we are not alone in our misery and sadness. and it also shows how much our savior loved us and knows what we go though in our lives."
+10394,1,"Another Title, Not So Pretentious!","First of all, the title is ridiculous. Second, the fundamental problem with this book is that it's pretty much unwritable. If Dunne had written it as a straightforward account of the OJ trial, what could he really have said that hadn't already been written? However, he couldn't really write the book in its current form as non-fiction, either, because too much of it is gossip and rumor--it would've meant multiple trips to the courthouse as he shelled out millions of dollars in libel suits. So I respect the dilemma Dunne was in; I just wish he'd reprinted his essays from Vanity Fair as a collection instead. In its current form, the book is vapid, uninteresting, and basically a reprinting of Dunne's journal. And the end? Talk about a desperate way to link in the other hot topic of the year! Whatever!"
+10395,1,Not Happy,"I have two dogs, 40 lbs. and 80 lbs. These tethers will not hold either one. Also, they will only stick to a smooth surface. So if you have a textured tile shower, forget it."
+10396,1,"Steve, come back, wherever you are!","Steve, you've been my Comedy God since I saw your stand-up routine live in the 70's. But this ""book"" is literally a lightweight that doesn't do justice to your considerable talents. Want to read funny, try ""Naked Pictures of Famous People"" or even ""In The Bin""-a hockey book for god's sake-but pass on this paltry effort"
+10397,2,World's Most Slept On Group!,I found this CD in the used bin at a record store in tha 90's...beat and lyrical content hit home...one of my all time favorite CD's..I was fortunate to find a replacement when my copy was lost in move to a new residence...So High and King Size Bed are pleasure to my ears still in a whole new decade of music.
+10398,1,Don't buy from them,"Yes the Chi Straightener is awesome and well worth the money, but do not buy from this company. I got the turbo 2 inch and when it arrived it was broken. I had a replacement sent to me but when that straightener came in... not only was it the wrong (1 inch instead of 2 inch) but it was ALSO broken like the first. They sent me a full refund once I returned both straighteners...But my point is buy this product from a more responsible company."
+10399,1,"""The Big Bopper"" isn't as big as the titles claim!","My two most-desired titles on this album were ""Chantilly Lace"" and ""Little Red Riding Hood"". I was(am) extremely disappointed that ""Little Red..."" was missing, though listed."
+10400,2,"Awesome Concert, Good CD","This concert is amazing. The CD, however, is just ""good."" The DVD is much better. In my view, The Who were (and still are) a band that is meant to be seen, not just heard.There are some truly brilliant moments in this show, where each of the band members have their moment to shine. Roger twirls his mic throughout the performance and Pete windmills his way through the roaring set. John Entwistle's bass solo on 5:15 is worth the price of admission alone. Sadly, none of this can be witnessed and appreciated unless you watch the DVD. The audio alone does not do the concert justice.Now, if only there was film footage of the 1970 Leeds show..."
+10401,2,"sometimes love means having to say ""wow!""","This is super-cool music. The Aluminum Group will break your heart and move your soul. I wonder if we'll all look back and point to this album as the turning point for smart music. No, this isn't Tortoise (you can actually enjoy these songs) but it is Chicago music at its best (undefinable, smart, ground-breaking). ""Chocolates"" ""StarWish"" ""Marichinette (sp) Society"" are classics."
+10402,2,great mp3 player,"I recently bouht this mp3 player for myself. Although I have never bought one before, I was very impressed with its sound quality, size, and memory. If you are looking for a good mp3 player for a low price, this is probably the one for you."
+10403,2,Great for my needs,"Needed a budget video card for a low-profile system that would run Windows Vista Aero. Plugged this card in, worked right away, loaded the latest Nvidia Vista drivers from Nvidia's website and have no problems so far. One of the few AGP cards I could find for a low-profile system that had enough built-in memory to run Vista Aero."
+10404,1,Lousy quality,I bought two of these not even three months ago. Lost the red in both right away. The last one I lost the red and had printed only six papers. I wouldn't waste money on these.
+10405,1,Save your money,"I've spent a long time looking for a copy of this movie at an affordable price, and was surprised when I found it in a double pack. The package descibes it as digitally remasterd, it's not. And the worst part is the movie cuts off during the final fight scene, maybe 90 seconds left in the movie and it jumps back to the menu screen."
+10406,1,Totally disappointed,"I ordered these earbuds even though I read the review that said the item received wasn't the one that was pictured. I figured that after a review like that and the passage of several months, the problem would have been resolved. Boy, was I wrong! That reviewer was right. The earbuds received were NOT in-ear earbuds, they don't fit well enough to use, and the sound is tinny. I've been a happy Amazon customer for a while now and I'm definitely not happy that the item received was not the one pictured. I've lost faith in Amazon and don't know that I can trust them like I used to."
+10407,1,not stainless steel interior,"I'm quite disappointed after I opened the package. The interior of the mug is plastic, not stainless steel at all. Misleading description and I have to return them."
+10408,2,The Destroy a Rolls Royce,"This was the directorial debu for film legend Ron Howard he also stars in it along with borther Clint Howard and Maryion Ross makes an apperance in it(she was Maryion Cunningham on Happy Days)they destroy some of the best cars in the world in this film including a Rolls Royce,Porche and many more but I found staring Ron Howard it had a pit of a chessy feel to it and more of a happy-go-lucky feeling over hard core action but still a real neat film for any car fans"
+10409,1,This was a big let down...,Beautiful scale that only lasted a couple of months. I would not recommend it at all. It would also get dirty very easily and hard to clean underneath. I'm so tired of homedics all together.
+10410,1,I'm only giving it one star cuz I half to,"If your a so-called V.C. Andrews ghost writer fan then you'll probably like this book. But if your a fan of the Real V.C. Andrews then your like me and hated it. I don't know why I read these books there always the same. Whimpy sappy girl grows up in some kind of sterotypical slums and is the smartest one out of the family of yokles or hood rats. She is smart beautiful and well spoken. She never gives her mommy (momma) any trouble or her evil Daddy (pa0. And she is a wonderful singer,dancer,painter,actress or all of the above. Then one day her rose color glasses are knocked of by some kind of soap opera betrayal. She is sold or kidnapped. Get some new ideas for crying out loud people are hip to your same ol same ol plots. Give up while your miles behind Mr.Ghost writter. Never send a man to a woman's job."
+10411,1,Incestual!,"To quote one of the characters from the book as they described a key plot in this book; disgusting. I couldn't believe it, you kept reading and it kept getting worse and worse and worse! It was all so sorted and predictable. What a waste!!"
+10412,1,Released Direct-to-Landfill,"Initially, I thought the evening I spent watching ""Cinderella 2"" was an evening wasted. But, in retrospect, it was community service, because if I can dissuade even one innocent unsuspecting person, just one, from ruining an evening of their lives by watching this mindless, smoldering dreck, it will have been worth it. This direct-to-video sequel to a Disney classic is a prime example of perfectly good magnetic tape gone to waste. Sloppy, unskilled animation (which Walt Disney himself would have relegated to the cel-scrubbing crew) hastily hacked out by an untrained overseas unit, stories that diminish the original's satisfying closure, and voices that will send your child crying from the room all add up to a miserable, torturous experience. People watch Disney animation for a reason--they want that magical experience that comes from wonderful artistry, and a fun story, well told. Sadly, you will find none here, and hence, no magic."
+10413,1,Couldn't Even Finish It...,"Ms. Enoch is way off her game with this one. Where is the love and fun of ""England's Perfect Hero"" or ""London's Perfect Scoundral."" The Nell is annoying and unlikeable, didn't care enough about her to read the whole book - and that rarely happens... It was as though Ms. Enoch was trying too hard to be risque.One thing that drove me nuts, were all the cutesy nicknames each character had.Skip this one, and pick any other book by Ms. Enoch."
+10414,1,"Visually stunning, boring plot _and_ gameplay","Just played through the first chapter, or rather I watched the first chapter. It was hard to tell even what was going on during battles because the screen was so busy. Story was not compelling at all. Characters were overly childish for a war situation. Battle was basically just mashing the same button over and over again. I've played nearly all Final Fantasy games and absolutely love them, but this one is by far the worst of them all. I mean it's graphically intense and visually stunning, but just an awful game."
+10415,1,Huge waste of money,"This ring looks beautiful in the picture but when you see it in reality, the cubic zirconia so small and the ring looks so tiny. Also, the cubic zirconia is dull. The ring I received looks like it was worn. Very disgusted with my purchase. Won't buy from this seller again. I do not like false imaging. The ring looks cheap and should be sold for much less. A real rip-off!"
+10416,2,Hunger Games,"Good quality action movie, although we thought it was not the same quality as the book. Our daughters were not happy with the casting of the movie."
+10417,1,Card should have quit while he was ahead !,He misses the mark on almost all counts. The charecterization sucks and the plot *feels* manufactured. The growth of Ender Wiggin from a child to the speaker for the dead has been dealt with beautifuly in his earlier books but the entwining of ALL threads into this story is frankly unacceptable.In fact I even see traces of Alvin in Children of ..
+10418,2,SMO ROCKS!,SMO is one of my favorite bands. I've seen them several times and they always make me smile with their creative song writing skills and ability to have fun more than anyone i've ever seen. They are the nicest people you'll ever meet and if you like music - in general - you WILL like what you hear. They are very much worth hearing. YOU WILL NOT BE DISSAPOINTED!G.
+10419,1,"Racist, sexist; a difficult read for the modern reader.","When I read this book, I thought it was a satire of something that might have happened in 1970s London. I even sort of enjoyed it, though the treatment of Brenda and the racism in the book was jarring at times. Then I read the introduction. The best thing about this book is that years later, the author was slapped at an event by a female activist for his horrid portrayal of women in the book. For a man writing about a character who supposedly had sex with hundreds of white women and managed to get Brenda to sleep with him even after he let his friend try to rape her without interfering, this author seems to have neither respect for nor understanding of women."
+10420,2,Sweet as Ever,"The only reason I did not give a 5 star rating to this CD is that nothing will compare with the fabulous Smith Sisters' 1984 LP album, ""Bluebird."" Until they release ""Bluebird"" on CD, I must be content to listen to ""A Canary's Song."""
+10421,1,too expensive for what you get.,"This product provides just 10 feet of track and a car for $30 dollars. It should cost $5. Do not buy, as it is simply too expensive. $30 should get at least 100 feet of track."
+10422,1,A confusing read,"I had problems with the writing style and the errors. The books jumps around in time for no apparent reason: one minute you're in 1998 then the next page you're in 2002 then the next page you're back to 2001 (and much of the time you're not sure where you are in time). Most of the time the writer uses third person and seems to be working from research then suddenly bam!, he's in the story. Then he's gone again. Very distracting. And the errors (obvious to an Atlantan) made me question the research and how accurate the book is. Even the title is weird - a reference to the fact that the victim liked light-skinned women, a detail but not really significant enough to the story to make sense as the title. I enjoyed the insight into a segment of Atlanta society but I did not enjoy the narrative or writing."
+10423,2,Second disk with Gessinger on the Bass,"This is a guitar disk. After Gessinger (singer) startet playing bass no the band, and released theyr 2nd disk full with bass, this is guitar time! Augusto Licks uses all his soul playing songs like ""Variaes sobre um mesmo tem"" and explodes in ""Cidade em Chamas"". Good, but not the best of this band."
+10424,1,Not what I expected,I didn't like the sunglasses when they arrived. They didn't fit well and didn't look good on me. Especially for the price. Would not recommend them.
+10425,1,Not for Children,"Although this shirt comes in children sizes it is not intended for them. Children just don't have the mind power to control the mystical powers of this shirt. Myself and my 5 kids wore our 3W&M shirts to a family reunion and after a three legged race did not go Jr's way mayhem erupted. All I can say is that by the time animal control was called a better half of my family was gone and Hut 42 looked like a catchup factory had exploded on it. Nana still isn't talking to me, and pop pop seems to be holding a grudge about his missing leg. On the plus side the shirts arrived on time and blood washes right out of them."

+10427,1,Nutone Outdoor Station,"I have a Nutone system (IM 3303) in my house. This particular purchase was a replacement for and orginal outdoor station. If I had to do it over and knowing what I know now, I would not have purchased a Nutone product. The system is 5 years old and I have replaced the initial home system along with 4/8 remote stations. Nutone uses (in my opinion) cheap components. Bascially the buttons and contacts (internal) break and or wear out. This particular outdoor station uses a cheap button for ringing the doorbell. They should do relability tests at Nutone and build something that will last."
+10428,2,Very nice music box for the money,"Don't really have much to say other than very very nice. Sounds like a miniature home theatre. And for the price, you can't beet it... I give it two thumbs up.."
+10429,1,cd's ok dvd's no,"the older labels work great the newer ones are great for cd but not dvd freezes and comes up with error codes on three players.real drag because i found out after labeling a large amount of dvd's. like other review took a couple labels off dvd plays fine, bummer.labels looked great."
+10430,2,Read again and again,This is a book that I have given to many people. The fear that I see and hear every day is astounding. This book is a comfort to those who read it and I never get it back. I purchased this book for me but know I will give it away again.
+10431,1,Goodbye Kitty,"This game is ok. The party planning is hard to figure out for my daughter and for me, we haven't thrown a succesful party yet. The games outside of the prty planning are enjoyable. Would not buy this again."
+10432,1,Does not contain bleach!,"I was excited to see that Amazon.com offered Gain Powder Detergent with Bleach - so I purchased my first order in April 2006. I noticed that the first box did not contain bleach, although the packaging clearly stated it did. I eventually found out the remaining 2 boxes did not contain bleach as well. I took another chance in June 2006 - same problem. This last order I returned to Amazon.com for a refund."
+10433,1,Beware- Not a Quality Product,"My toddler received this as a holiday gift and it has been a huge disappointment. The strings are not tight enough to strum, and there is no means to adjust them properly. We took it to a guitar center to see if they could improve the situation, and they said it would cost $50 to replace all of the fittings to make it usable. I would not recommend this to anyone."
+10434,1,Out of Control,"I thought I was going to see this jerk perform in Seattle. Guess again. He did a no-show. He's been kicked out of 4 hotels in 2 days, slapped store clerks, threatened bar patrons and owner, attacked people who asked to have their photo taken with him, and thrown in jail for his bad behavior with cops. Go away, stupid man. Just go away."
+10435,2,gets the job done,"This usb turntable is a good buy, The free software for the Macintoshcomputers is not as good as the version supplied for the wintel machines.However it does a reasonably good job. It would be a plus if the turntablehad cueing so one did not need to lower the arm by hand. Also a pitch controlis on the unit but there is no strobe light or strobe markings,For the price and for converting my vynal record collection to compact disksit it was a good deal."
+10436,2,Another amazing addition to indie,"Wow. I can't believe how good these guys are. I first found them when i was browsing purevolume.com and i was immediatly hooked. They're a perfect blend of indie/emo/ and post hardcore. They reminded me of Sparta a little and i love sparta so i naturally liked these guys. The lyrics are astounding and the music is anthemic, catchy, and creative. These guys truly understand music and make it happen to the fullest extent. A must buy!"
+10437,1,DO NOT BUY,"The jellifish breaks easily even if you are careful and read the instructions. It is so delicate it is rendered nearly unusable and is therefore impractical.Its metal tines could also easily scratch the finish on your expensive guitar whether your finish is wood or metal. It is an interesting idea but it really should be made with stiff plastic tines, or if metal the tines should be made with tougher material that won't break, but how could they sell more then?"
+10438,2,OMG!!! No wonder they lose 8 lbs a week,"I love this video. The setup is amazing. You can customize your workout or you can use the preset, it even tells you how to rotate. I love it. The workouts are challenging but in a good way. It is one of the best workouts I have ever had at home. I am buying more!!!!!"
+10439,1,pkm,I was disappointed to see the ingredients as ammonium alum while thenatural body deo are potassium alum. I dont know why they are making foolbut its a serious matter because there are still no studies to prove thatthis synthesized salt is safe to use.
+10440,2,"Good explanations, helped a lot later on","This book was pretty good. I finished it while in Algebra 2 in the first semester of my junior year in high school. I had tried reading it 2-3 times before but I always got stuck on a couple subjects, particularly quaternions and the rotation about an arbitrary axis. But like I said, I finally finished it later.This book actually fostered my great interest in upper level mathematics as I later taught myself calculus I/II out ofCalculus Demystified : A Self Teaching Guide (Demystified)and I was able to understandIntroduction to 3D Game Programming with Direct X 9.0c: A Shader Approach (Wordware Game and Graphics Library)after reading this book."
+10441,2,this is not a compilation,"just one thing. this album is not a compilation of some of the excellent song of le orme. this is a ""new"" record with the original members on drums and bass (michi de rossi and aldo tagliapietra)but instead of the original keybordist (antonio pagliuca) there are two keybordists. Personally i liked the new versions of some of the songs (canzione dámore, india) but on the others i prefer the original versions (collage, gioco de bimba, sguardo verso il celo, la porta chiusa). It is a good album but if you can, get the original albums ""collage"", ""uomo di pezza"", ""contrapunti"" and ""verita nascoste"" all of them are masterpieces."
+10442,1,Bad bad bad,"Purchased and will be returning. Not only is the DRM a problem, after installation it bogged my internet connection down. After uninstall (and manual removal of SecuRom) the connection was back to normal. Reinstalled and had same thing. Tried another installation on 2nd machine and got nailed with more than three installations.I won't be calling EA for reactivation, the retailer will be returning the box.The gameplay I did see was just a cutdown RTS. Some innovation but really isn't all that good overall."
+10443,2,Engaging for the kids.,"The kids love this movie. They have watched it 2 times so far, and have wanted to watch it more. They love the story line, and effects of John Carter. It kind of reminded me of a Star Wars meets Indiana Jones, with a little bit of Avatar. Great movie!!"
+10444,2,Battle Royal - Japanese Film - Non Animi,"If you are lucky enough to see this film in non cartoon form with proper subtitles you are extreamly lucky, i thought this film was banned world wide except Japan of course. Its a film about a class of 40 students who are forced to kill eachother. Battle Royal or (BR) is in a sick way a game. each student is given a necklace that they can not remove and also has a detonator, each student is also given a random weapon. now hers the sick part, in 3 days all the neclaces will detonate unless 39 students are dead with one survivor. the survivor is then the !!WINNER!! nice eh?, a movie well worth a watch to see the crazyness of japanese story writers"
+10445,2,Pretty and functional,"Bought this in the pink polka dot for my little girl's room to store some of the bigger toys. It's great for the price. My only complaint is that it isn't lined on the inside. Other than that, it is a nice piece. Very roomy inside, fabric is soft and pretty , and seems pretty durable. We will be using this piece for many years!"
+10446,1,Disappointing book from a great author,"I'm a major fan of Lasky's and was looking forward to reading this book, which had come highly recommended. It was a big disappointment. Two-dimensional characters; stilted, artificial language; cliché situations; and worst of all, a preachy tone destroyed the message for me. And I'm someone who agrees with her message; I'm strongly against censorship of all sorts. But Harper's path was too clear-cut for her. If one of the people from the so-called ""religious right"" had been the least bit sympathetic, or if Gray had shown some human resentment at being the brunt of her anger, or if one of her parents had tried a little bit to understand her, it would have made her choice much more difficult and painful, and ultimately, more important."
+10447,1,Even for a lame chick flick it sucks hard.,"This movie is stupid, pointless, boring, runs on and on, is not funny, gets annoying and is just a total mess. These type of movies sucks anyway but this is one of the worst I have had the displeasure of watching. Vince Vaughn & Reese play the same boring roles they play in every movie they are in....lame."
+10448,1,Wonky!!,"Terribly LOUD motor powering the swing and the mobile right out of the box, it sounds like it's struggling to run. The pillow was sewn on crooked and off to one side. Can't imagine a swing manufactured any cheaper than this, doesn't seem to stable. I paid for two-day shipping but it took a week before it was delivered. It's going back."
+10449,1,pick and choose,a lot of history was left out and it seemed that only what the author felt was important was focussed on.
+10450,2,Good print server for home,"Bought it, loved it, works great. I read the other reviews, and took their advice. It sets up quick,( 10 minutes) no problems. I will offer this advice. Keep it within sight only because if you have a power outage, it needs to be reset to let your network know it's there. This is not hard. (electric power supply): unplug it and plug it back in to the unit after 15 seconds and you are back to printing. It seems to have no delay, I have 3 computers using it (one wireless) and it is a champ. I will buy IO Gear again."
+10451,1,Not good,"I ordered three items of Aveeda. One was this Pure Abundance Hair spray. Condtioner came within a very short while. Still waiting on the shampoo but the hair spray just arrived yesterday. Well, I used a tad on my hand to feel it and the odor of this product blew me away. Unlike another poster stating a devine smell, this smell was all but devine. It had a strong medicinal, alcohol, smell. I could not use this product and smell this bad. I called Amazon and they are taking care of this. Never again, will I buy health/beauty products on line."
+10452,2,Two outta 3 are awesome,"Once again, Joe Satriani and Steve Vai bring their A-game and lay down some phenomenal tunes. Although Yngwie Malmsteen's talent is up there with Satriani and Vai, his 80's-style music can't keep up with the other 2. Still worth buying."

+10454,2,Just another remake?,"(Is The Ring just another remake? Or Otello? Or My Fair Lady? What do you think this 1962 movie is, that you all seem to find so ""original""? Surely not Melville!)The casting in this production is exceptional and the staging truly ""original."" My only qualm is with the singers' diction, especially in the larger scenes. Unless you can get a copy of the libretto to follow, this might not be the version for you.I have yet to find another production, however, so this is probably your best bet. Maybe the DVD release will have subtitles (English for English? Stranger things have happened)."

+10456,2,pretty decent speaker system,Now I'm not one to over-hype a product like some others might but this 5.1 speaker system isn't bad for the $70 minus $10MIR. Good sound but not too powerful (70-140 total watts)... but more than enough for my media center desktop. Not a big fan of the WIRED remote control but that's not a huge dealbreaker for the price. Overall I'm pleased but not overwhelmed. I'm just hoping these will last me more than 5 years when I'll be ready to start upgrading everything.
+10457,1,Please Be Warned about all KSB560 Blenders,"I have had this blender for a little of 1 year. While the blender does a good job of blending, the product doesn't last as stated. First, Kitchen Aid claims this jar won't scratch or crack. That is incorrect as my jar shows many scratches from limited (3x a week) use. Also, there is an defect with the jar and blade assembly. The nut that holds the blade located on the underside of the jar begins to come lose which allows everything inside the pitcher to begin to leak onto the motor housing unit. Despite tightening, the nut continues to come lose and continues to leak when the blender is used. Customer service has been very unhelpful in resolving the issue. I would STAY AWAY from this Kitchen Aid blender and spend your $100 on a better product."
+10458,1,HATE IT !!!!!,"THE PUMP WAS VERY NOISY, IT MADE A CREAKING NOISE. THE WELL WOULD HOLD THE LITTLE MILK IT DID PUMP. YOU WOULD HAVE TO LEAN FOWARD TO GET A DRIP TO COME OUT. IN ORDER FOR ME TO GET 4 OZ OF MILK I WOULD HAVE TO PUMP FOR ABOUT 2 HOURS AND BE COMPLETELY UPSET AT BREAST FEEDING BY THE TIME I WAS DONE. I AM IN THE PROCESS OF GETTING A NEW ELECTRONIC OR BATTERY OPERATED PUMP. I AM SO UPSET I SPENT THAT AMOUNT OF MONEY."
+10459,2,Legendary,"This album has inspired a generation of Metal. If Nirvana had not released this album, we would all be in a very different artistic scene today. In fact, we would be engulfed by thousands of materialistic, manufactured bands like Hearsay and Liberty X.Some die-hard fans and critics of the band maintain that Nirvana saved Artistic expression from a slow and painful death.Whatever Nirvana did for us all, this is just a fantastic album.From the brutal slamathon of ""Smells like teen spirit"", to the slow burning throb of ""In Bloom"", this album rocks and moshes like a kangaroo on Prozac."
+10460,2,Highly recommended if taking the IBCLC exam,Utilizing these practice exams helped me in preparing for the IBCLC exam. These practice exams helped me narrow my focus on areas I had more trouble with.
+10461,1,General Information,"The information provided was general, however the samples will provide a first time resume writer with the basic outline to follow. The information in some samples, such as a housewife entering back into the work force, were a bit too hyped up to take seriously."
+10462,1,A little too flip,"This book is a little too flip in it's writing. Too casual, though the information seems legitimate"
+10463,1,Warranty?,"This product lasted 14 months for me and had been suitable for my purposes.After 14 months, it just died.The manufacturer has a 2 year warranty and provides no address in the product information; instead it instructs the buyer to contact the ""dealer.""Amazon, from whom I bought this product, refers the buyer to the 3rd party seller who only accepts returns for 90 days. Tried ""googling"" this company's contact information and I got an address in Korea.Metronomes are electronically rather simple and this product should have lasted much longer. This may have been a defective device. However, the product gets one star because of essentially leaving me without a way to use the warranty."
+10464,2,Great for the Price,"I purchased this product back in march (now november). The only part i didnt like was the cover for the top of the phone was about a quarter inch too long so there was a tacky grey strip with of my phne showing. The Back cover is great, yea the paint scratched off after about 3 months, but its supposed to protect the phone not to make it look pretty. Ratcheting belt clip is great x-ept it starts to wear out after a few months. Also 1 of the 4 screws that atttaches the ratchet clip had no threads. Oh well. Just recently i dropped my phone and the side cracked and wouldnt hold to my phone. Very disappointed as i liked the look of the case.When i bought it the price at $4.90 . Very cheap and great buy. I am going to buy again becuase i liked it so much!"
+10465,2,Armed Forces,"Still sounds great after all these years. Along with 'My Aim is True', 'Armed Forces' is the other album you must have to understand the sound and fury that brought this huge talent to prominence."
+10466,2,Sony 8gb Micro Vault is impressive,"Hi, I have read several bad commentaries about this usb storage device on different websites and all I can say is I love mine !! It is not slow and I think anyone with half a brain would realize that even usb 2.0 h/s transfers will never be nicknamed lightning quick usb!! This tiny thing sure can hold a bunch of info and many mp3's even at 224k kbps. Like around a thousand at that high quality bitrate !! I never realized people are so impatient as to expect instant large file transfers out of any usb storage device !! For the low price you pay for one of these I think you will very content to own one of these miracles of science !!!"
+10467,1,Worst brand i have used,"90% of these discs won't play in my car. It doesn't matter if i burn them at 48x or 4x...they are almost all coasters. This is the first brand of CD-r's that i have had trouble with. I have good luck with Memorex, Maxell, TDK, Verbatim, etc."
+10468,1,tolerable til the end,"Though plagued with bad acting (but it's okay, since it's a kid movie right?), certain parts of this movie have merits. However, toward the end, logic goes completely out the window with the scene where he talks to the fairy godmother and what she does to him. That scene completely make the movie up to that moment pointless."
+10469,2,Sweet romance,This was my first read my Teresa Medeiros and it won't be my last. I enjoyed the character development - Gabriel was a great tortured hero. This one had a plot twist that totally surprised me.
+10470,1,DISAPPOINTED FAN,"Jonathan and Faye Kellerman are two of my favorite authors ... have been for many years. I was looking forward to this collaboration. I received an advanced copy and could barely get through it. The characters were cardboard cut-outs, the plots plodded along, the endings were let-downs. Hope the Kellermans stick to what they do best in the future - - collaborate at home and work separately."
+10471,1,VERY DISSATISIFIED WITH SERVICE,"I received the remote immediately and then did not receive the ceiling fan after its estimated delivery date passed. After sending e-mails with no response, I received an e-mail from Amazon stating that the fan was out-of-stock. Now I am stuck with a remote that I can't use. I will never make another large purchase again."
+10472,1,"Interesting, but poorly written","I got this book primarily out of curiosity and perhaps the feeling that to be like R. Don Steele would make me a real man. As I read through the book, I found a lot of what he was saying to be insightful at times, but pretty naive at other times. The biggest concern I had was with the way it was written. I mean, a high school kid's term paper would read so much better. The chapters actually seem to be out of order: ch. 13 is ""Court Her"", immediately followed by ""Find Her"", ""Meet Her"", ""Talk with Her"", and then ""Date Her"". Wouldn't courting come AFTER you meet her? And the writing sounds like it is all rough draft with no editing for readability. Sometimes I thought that after a conquest, while still fairly drunk, he might sit down at the typewriter and punch in his current feelings. So it ends up being an almost unreadable mish-mash at times."
+10473,1,"Estaben is a good self promoter, but thats all","Estaben constantly uses the Segovia name to promote himself. This album like his others do not use any of the Segovia repertoire. This cd (like most of Estaben's) is on a second year classical guitar level. The flamenco is also as bad. The bulerias and solearies are off compass in several places and completly lack any duende. Leaving it flat and lifeless. If you want to hear a real Segovia protege I would suggest listening to John (guitarist) Williams. For traditional flamenco there is Sabicas 'Flamenco Puro' For modern flamenco, Paco deLucia.s 'Siroco'. Don,t waste your money on Flamenco y' Rosas. Its a real stool softener."
+10474,1,Misleading Editorial review+No 24hrs timer/ 10cup as stated!,"I bought 6 of these coffeemaker and listed to sell on an autionsite boasting this advertise high point on the 24hrs timer as per the Editorial review with a NAIVE assumption that Amazon.com is reliable/reputable seller! I got nothing but returns for refund, bad feedback for telling lies on my listing! I wrote to Amazon.com asking to compensate for my lost to refund to buyers infull plus paying S&H; for the items to return back to me but they reply with just an apology, when I asked them if I can return these back, they coldly told me it's over 30 days now and nothing can be done! I'm very disappointed with their customer service's attitudes! I wrote 1 review similar to this last week and they did not list it, I hope this one will go thru unless they want me go send this somewhere else!!! I'll not trust what they said in their listing anymore, and please be advise by this review that their UNTRUE facts list just increase by 1 now!"
+10475,1,bad,"Don't buy this. ""From the Grave"" is overdubbed b/w film without Bruce Lee in it. The other two aren't great either."
+10476,1,Misleading promotion on capability of Motown CD's,"I ordered the Motown Karoke CD's, which included 3 CD's with 40 songs. It cost 39.99 plus shipping and handling was additional. What I received, however was 1 Motown Chartbusters set, vols. 1-6. I was unable to use it with the new Karaoke machine, which I purchased for my family reunion. The ""G"" for graphics was no where to be found on the set I received. I was so disappointed about the Amazon misleading information, and most importantly, I had disapppointed my family.Disappointed and cautious about ordering anything else from Amazon.com"
+10477,1,Movie was not good,I only got it because it had Michael Shanks in it & was cheaper to buy it used than to rent it online.
+10478,1,Not my first choice,"I was surprised that nearly a third of the book had absolutely nothing to do with implementing SugarCRM, and the remaining sections were truly vague. If you want a book that describes generic concepts about what a CRM is and why you might want one, this book is for you. If you don't have a clue what a CRM system is, this book is a nice primer. In fact for the first third of the book, I believe it mentions other CRM products more often than Sugar.If you are actually trying to implement SugarCRM and expect this book to show you how to change a single setting to customize it your way, you will be sorely disappointed. There are vague references to things like ""use the admin panel to change user permissions"" but nothing more detailed than that simple phrase - and very little of that."
+10479,2,YEah DAve MAtthews--THE space between,Dave Matthews is god. THis single reenforces that notation. THe space between is one of the best songs by dave...he dumps his soul and heart into the words that were orginally written about his girlfriend (now wife) ashley as they were analyizing where to turn next in thier relationship. Dave is god. Buy this CD u will no regret it. It offers different lyrics than what is on the EVERYDAY cd-----buy it to see what I mean. :)
+10480,1,Fans can never be objective...,From the OBJECTIVE reviewer...What you know? That there is nothing very original or memorable...period.
+10481,1,ripped off,"I ordered this product as new product on Amazon.com, it stopped working 6 months later, I returned it to Samsung repair, turns out that there was no warrantee (after they originally said that it was). Tech for Less and Amazon wanted nothing to do with it. Basically I had to write off the monitor and take the hit, neither Amazon, Tech for Less, or Samsung, would take responsibility for it. I will have to buy a replacement. Customer service in all three of these companies couldn't have been worse. The warranty (3 years) posted on Amazon's website turned out to be useless and their customer service even worse."
+10482,1,Gimme a break! This isn't Christianity!,"Christianity--by virtue of its divine founder--cannot change. If it changes, it isn't Christianity any longer. There are certain doctrines which are an integral part of Christianity, and to deny those is to deny the very basis for our faith. Unfortunately, Mr. Spong (who doesn't even deserve to be a bishop) seems to have conveniently forgotten this in order to continue in his own sin."
+10483,1,Not much of a holocaust movie,"This movie barely touches on the holocaust. Some of scenes that it does show from the holocaust were actually scenes from when the people were liberated, not when they were being brought to the camp, which made me think that the movie was just thrown together, grabbing a few scenes from youtube. I could probably say in one breath the amount that was quoted from the diary. It's more a movie about a woman who doesn't get along with her mother, is popular on her radio talk show, and her marriage is in trouble. Then there's some stuff about a woman in Poland who left her diary to her daughter. It's not a good movie no matter what tags you put on it because the acting is bad and the story line is worse. Save your money and skip this one."
+10484,1,Soooooo disappointed,"I was so happy when I borrowed this movie from our local library. Now I'm only happy that I borrowed it instead of purchasing it. The books were , basically, thrown out when this movie was made. I was so disappointed. I will not watch this sequel again. If you really liked the first two movies, I would not bother to watch the 3rd. It left me feeling sick to my stomach at such a gross departure from the books and story line."
+10485,2,great customer service and great product,great book and even better customer service. book was lost in mail and they immediately sent me a replacement. thanks!
+10486,2,"Very nice watch, excellent price","I have owned this watch for over a year. I wanted a nice looking, affordable watch that I could wear daily. This watch surpassed my expectations. It is built quite solidly, and is heavy compared to similar watches. The flight computer works smoothly. I got quite a few compliments on the watch."
+10487,2,The movie,This movie was absolutly delectable. the case wasn't scratched up. the movie was everthing i expected and more. I would recommend it to everyone in the WHOLE world as long as they liked the movie.
+10488,2,Music worth listening to over & over,"This Bruce Hornsby set is remarkable not only for the songs, but also for the quality of the recordings, mix of live & studio recordings, the inside photo booklet, DVD, & the variety of styles - solo, with the band, & other artists. This set has been on our stereo, DVD player, & in our cars for months without becoming tiresome. Very highly recommended!!"
+10489,2,Ease Of Use,"This Omron pedometer has a large easy to see read-out, is quite accurate and has a thoughtful design including a clip attachment so you won't lose your device while walking. This being my 3rd pedometer purchase I will say 'The 3rd time is the charm!'"
+10490,2,Good Book for those thinking about college,I think that this book is a must reead for those who are trying figure out if they should go to college or not. It give a very good picture of how it really is when you do not have higher education.
+10491,1,Disappointed in accessory kit,Very disappointed in accessory kit - no instructions regarding how to set up tripod. Tried to contact someone to ask questions - that is not going to happen. There is no such thing as customer service anymore. The nikon 55-200mm lens was not user friendly. This was our first really nice camera puchase and was hoping for a great accessory kit that had what was needed.
+10492,2,Not just for Women,"Whether you are a man or a woman, if you're in the corporate world or work in an office, this is an essential book to own. It will revolutionize your earning potential. It covers all aspects of the work experience from interviewing to getting a raise to leaving successfully. His advice about how often you should switch jobs is wroth the price of the book, easily.R. Don Steele's blunt language is a rare find in today's world, and his straightforwardness helps convey his messages. If you read this book carefully, you'll realize he truly cares about telling you everything he knows about the subject. He is clearly passionate about educating his readers, and his language and thoroughness show that.I truly wish I had read this book before I had graduated college. I'm lucky I found it during my second job."
+10493,2,Does EXACTLY what it says it does!,"Super little machine. I broke a glass of wine recently and zipped upstairs to get my Dirt Devil as the dog gave every indication he would enjoy the spilt wine! It took everything up perfectly, and carried on and on working while I anxiously spread it over an increasingly large area, trying to see those pesky and dangerous last little bits of glass. I was impressed with the Dirt Devil's battery performance, design, and general effectiveness. It also did a great job in the car, which was the main reason I bought it! Am so glad that I did."
+10494,2,Wow..,"Wow.. I was not familiar with this band until recently. I heard a couple songs of theirs on a local radio station, and being totally disugsted with modern rock, I decided to give the White Stripes a try.All I can say is, this is a great album, and seems to have made me actually like the sound of a guitar for the first time in about 10 years... aside from Neil Young's Prairie Wind (which is entirely a different type of music). This is one of the best rock albums to come out in a long, long time."
+10495,2,Great Little Grinder,"I was looking for a cost effective device for mincing up flax seed and was pleased to spy the Proctor Silex E160B at half the price I would have had to pay at the local supermarket.It was delivered quickly and put to work the next day. It does a great job and, what is more, the cord stows away inside the body making it easy to store.I certainly recommend it"
+10496,1,White Noise,"If you are a guy, never watch this movie. NEVER! If you are a guy who has seen it, and enjoyed it even remotely, you need to do some soul searching."
+10497,1,Crappy way to do business! Not worth a star!,"I have ordered from this company 2 times, and both times they have jacked the money from my account and then cancelled the order. Seriously, why does a great company like Amazon allow fly by nights such as this company to even be allowed to sell products on their site. I for one will think twice before I use Amazon or BZB again."
+10498,1,Polk Audio R30 spreakers are horrid,"I just had a pair of Polk Audio R30 towers delivered for $49.99 each + shipping from Outpost.com. I connected them to both a Harmon-Kardon HK 3480 receiver and Hafler DH-220 power amplifier and listed to them with a variety of sources including Scott Ross's classic Scarlatti harpsichord, acoustic Johnny Cash, William Clark, the Doors, and others.In all cases I found the speakers to have an overly bright high end and midrange that sounds so strained it is as if it is coming through a tin cans on a string. The midrange imaging is all but non-existent because it is so strained, and the high end is grating.After living with them for 2 days I find I can no longer listen to them because the bad sound irritates to no end.I have a set of Creative Inspire computer speakers I bought for $50 that sound an order of magnitude better than the Polk Audi R30's. These speakers are tinny and unlistenable and are a waste of time and money at any price."
+10499,1,Bells of St Mary's Beware,"If you buy this DVD expecting it to be the video on disc, you will be quite disappointed. Within the first five minutes you'll discover that a scene has been cut. I purchased this version as part of transitioning our holiday film collection to disc from video and I'm quite disappointed."
+10500,2,Take Charge of Your Health,"Take charge of your health, that's what Patrick Quillin empowers you to do if you buy his very informative book, ""Beating Cancer With Nutrition."" The book not only helps you to defeat cancer, but gives you a detailed way to achieve optimal health. The audio CD which is included in the book reinforces what you read in the book. Listen to it anytime, in your car, while you are eating & soon you will get in the habit of doing the things to put you on track to better health. If you are now undergoing cancer therapy, be sure to include Patrick Quillin's advice. Research indicates that nutrition prolongs life & reduces symptoms of cancer therapy.I have been studying nutrition for over 40 years & recommend this book to anyone who wants to get on the road towards a happier & longer life.Morton J. Schomer, O.D.Miami Florida"
+10501,1,Nice Looking Piece Of Junk!,"This phone is awful, I upgraded because my i80 (?) an old nextel brick was just too big and it snapped in half. this phone is the smalles they make right now. It has horrible battery l;ife, I am on my second battery because it will just cut out without warning when I am on the phone and have barely used it after a full charge. the signal is terrible, I don't have reception in places that I did with my older phone. the case scratches and chips easily and it just doesn't work!! If I paid for the phone I would have given it up long ago, but I use it for work heavily, dc and phone - when the battery is charged it does work fine. Another annoying thing is the volume buttons on the outside of the phone are easily pressed if the phone is in your pocket and will take itself off of vibrate without you knowing.All nextel phones have horrible battery life, but some of them don't drop calls as much!"
+10502,1,Not good quality. And the sizing is all wrong...,I was pretty dissapointed when I bought these shoes. They look great in the photo but they have the sizing all wrong.. They run a complete size larger on many of their lines and you cant tell which lines are sized correctly and which arent... its a toss of the coin.I bought these in a size 9 but they really were a 10. They were a complete inch larger than my foot! I couldlnt believe it... I have tried other shoes of theirs and Id have to say 80% are sized too large...Its not worth the gamble...
+10503,1,"No display, no Windows partition (deleted and all data lost!)","Where do I begin, you ever heard the phrase that youget what you pay for?Thinking I would give this a try, well now my machineshard-drive is gone, it boots up to a blank screen,flashing at me.Wonderful, I am work right now typing this review!0 stars is bettereli"
+10504,2,i think this is a very good Cd,the only thing wrong with this Cd is that they have to many skits. they need to cut down on them
+10505,2,Good challenging start at Oragami ... Well worth it,"I purchased this for my 7 year old. The book has some easy start Origami (swan, fish, etc.) and then moves toward others that are more challenging (water bomb, frog, etc.). She really enjoys it. I can see more Origami in her future :) (NOTE: it does not include paper, so I purchasedOrigami Paper Traditional Prints 8 1/4"" 49 Sheets)."
+10506,2,A beautiful story,"What a legend. I loved the book, it's so well narrated and full of aloha. It tells the long journey of a simple human who reunited tremendous values like courage, determination, friendship, sacrifice and love, to finally find eternal rest at sea. Everyone should read this book to learn about how to be better in life."
+10507,2,More Military Insanity,"Lenoard Matlovich, with three tours in Viet Nam, an unblemishedservice record, and several medals including citations for bravery andthe purple heart is dismissed from the military because he is gay.The book is a well written documentary of the legal challanges that follow as well as the metamorphisis of Matlovich from political conservative to gay activist. The reader gains insight into the absurdity of the military's positionand how difficult the struggle to challange it. Frustrating, but interesting story."
+10508,2,AWESOME MOVIE!!,I love this movie! Great chick flick and a wonderful movie! I am so glad that I finally found a copy for my very own!
+10509,2,Ever wondered about Laura as an adult?,"If you love Laura Ingalls Wilder, you must read this book!It is great to get to know Laura as an adult. She kept the wonderful sense of adventure she had as a child. It is a real treat to experience the pan-pacific exhibition through her eyes."
+10510,1,Boring,"I thought it was boring and even though I am an avid reader, I didn't get far at all in any of the books. My tastes are just different."
+10511,2,Kindle Version on DX,"Formatting: I can give it about a 3.7 here. Its kind of broken up and it can be hard to tell when a key note is about the previous recipe or the following one. The main reason to knock one star is there is no table of contents. The remedy is simple in this case. Simply go and bookmark the main headings for each area. On the next page after you will find hyper-linked entries for the entire section. It takes less than 3 minutes (also a one-time effort) and it works fine for me and thus isn't a total SNAFU.Content: I wouldn't call this a hardcore Chinese food cookbook. As other reviewers have stated, this is the kind of fare you might find at a local Americanized Chinese food joint. That's what I wanted so the content gets 5 stars.Overall Value: I give it a 4.4 stars for the current price and a solid 5 for anyone who just wants a primer on ingredients and combinations that are typical plus cooking methods with a wok."
+10512,2,great fun!,"Fun, motivating, practical. Not terribly sturdy on stand -- my son likes to hold the 'flusher' down and empty the entire tank into the drawer! (But we've never run over.)"
+10513,1,Too small,"I love the look of these bowls, but they're too small. They're the largest bowls I can find that say ""Harley Davidson"" on them but they don't hold enough food or water for a 50 lb. (average) dog."
+10514,2,Pretty Good Solitaire Pretty Good!,"Games are clean, clear, large enough to see comfortably without strain and no advertising. Would recommend this to any card game enthusiast or beginner."
+10515,1,Beware -,"This book is horribly outdated! If you have Acrobat 5, - fine. Or maybe not so fine... use the money you would have spent on this book and upgrade to the current Adobe version: Acrobat 7 as of Sept 2006...and beware of Wiley Books that don't specifiy the application version - - Wiley is notorious for this -- remember, when purchasing a Wiley book -- think twice if the version of the application is not specified.."
+10516,1,Continually breaking,"Cleans carpets pretty well when it works - which is not very often. Cheap plastic parts keep breaking. Most importantly, the six plastic brushes are all gear-driven from one of the brushes that has an elongated square shaft. That shaft shears off at its base - it is not strong enough to drive all the brushes on moderately thick carpets. The brush set has been replaced three times already. Basic design flaw that could be remedied with a steel shaft."
+10517,1,Primitive and Frustrating,"I bought this set because I thought it'd be fun to learn how to cook new dishes that can only be done with stainless steel. Instead, I found myself not eating or eating fast food rather than go anywhere near these pots and pans. Say what you will about non-stick cookware, but I'll take it and it's higher-tech construction than cookware that would be at home in 19th century Eastern Europe."
+10518,1,Defective,"This item was dead on arrival and will not charge, when plugged in the charger it immediatly shows a bad battery and will not charge."
+10519,2,Really Nice,Got three of them for the shop. They have been used this winter and they work great. Got them at a great price with free shipping. Should have got another one.Art
+10520,2,A Sad Life,"Dare Wright was beautiful, talented, gentle, modest, eccentric and mysterious. She was a model, a photographer and ultimately a best-selling children's author. She was also lonely, sad and a bit strange. According to this author at least, her most important role was that of Daughter to a mother whose control was almost Machiavellan. Dare was deprived of independence, confidence, a father, a brother, a husband and children of her own. This is a light but intruiging read."
+10521,1,Don't do it! Don't waste your money.,"This pan is absolute junk. It buckled when I took off the label band and is so thin that you literally can bend the metal with your fingers! The donut recipe is also fit for the trash can. It is dry, chewy and pretty much inedible. The only positive I can say is the donuts are a nice shape, and the pan has a nonstick finish, but it's only oven safe to 325 degrees. Really, it is not worth the money and I'm sorry I purchased it."
+10522,1,Too wordy with little meat,"Was highly recommended by a friend, was really disappointed to read as the author tried hard to fill up the pages with humor and other unrelated verbiage to give book some shipping weight. The salient points could have been communicated in an article vs. a book."
+10523,1,Why bother?,"This collections gives you 7 of the 8 tracks from the 1985 Power Station album - at that rate, just buy that album. Moreover, it only features one track from the much better 1996 Power Station album 'Living in Fear'.I'd only recommend getting this if you are really keen on getting the other tracks not found on either album.But basically you might as well get the first album to get most the songs found here and get Living in Fear to get all the ones missing from here."
+10524,1,This DVD player does not decode DTS,I purchased this DVD player because I wanted to be able to play divx movies. The ad stated this player did decode DTS. Well to my suprise it didn't I called Philips to verify this and they told me it was not designed to decode DTS sound tracks. Also the picture quality is terrible my old Pioneer DVD player has a much better picture output and it isn't even a progresive scan player!
+10525,1,Twice the effort for half the sleekness,"My hair is about 90% straight and 10% wavy, so you wouldn't think it takes much to make it sleek, straight and shiny; I even use an ant-firzz serum before I style. But using this Conair took twice as long as drying and straightening my hair in two steps, and gave me half as straight hair. I even used my regular blow dryer first to get most of the dampness out, thinking this would speed up the process...but no, it took ages. The Conair is basically a very small hairdryer with a few brush bristles. When I was finished, my hair definitely had frizz and fly aways, and I had to go back over it with my Chi flat iron. I really wanted to like this product and to save time, but I will be returning it."
+10526,1,A Big Waste from the Woodman.,"....eh. i usually enjoy Woody (Manhattan, Hannah and her Sisters, Manhattan Murder Mystery, Mighty Aphrodite), but Allen's writing needs an enema. It's weird, i actually enjoyed the PLOT of this film MORE than the dialogue (which is usually the opposite of past Woody Allen films for me). Problems abound in the film though, most notably Tea Leoni and Woody Allen have ZILCH chemistry (which is paramount to the story), and the ending seems put on fast forward. I did enjoy the light comedic moments alot though (and was surprised at how often i laughed at jokes about blindness), and george hamilton and debra messing are cute in supporting roles...."
+10527,1,"Damn, it should have been finished a while ago...","Disappointed. Cheated. Angry. Thats how I felt when I finally heard Jay-Z and R. Kelly's second ""Best of Both Worlds"" CD. Jay's rhymes was the worst I've heard him do in a LONG time, R. Kelly basically outsung the whole CD. It was sad, on top of that, it was just wayyy to commercial. It seemed like they put zero to little effort into it, and Jay even admitted that. I went to the Madison Square concert the night R. Kelly walked off stage, and it was one of the best concerts I've been to ever. I felt like I witnessed history, only because it showed how one performer (R. Kelly) really proved that he was at the bottom of his game, while the other (Jay-Z) pulled out his aces and performed a hit show, thanks to Mary J, Ja, and Busta! The CD is horrible though, get the Black Album instead, or wait and get Nas' ""Streets Disciple""."
+10528,1,scratched DVD,"I bought a new DVD and there was a skip in it the first time I played it. Unfortunately, it was also in one of the most important scenes in the movie. I had already thrown the receipt (thinking if it was new, I had nothing to worry about). Bummer."
+10529,1,Not Very Good.,"This was a recommendation from a friend. Atreyu is his favorite band. He let me hear a song or two and I didn't absolutely love it, but I didn't absolutely hate it, either. So I went out and bought this pice of crap. When I was reading the lyrics I noticed some explicit content throughout the album. I told my parents, and they made me get rid of it (they don't allow me to buy explicit stuff). I popped it into the player to see what I was missing out on before I sent the thing back. Wow. I wasn't very impressed. Sure, it had some nice guitar riffs here and there, but the ""singer"" was so harsh and pig-sounding that I couldn't even understand what he was saying. I wasted my money and was not satisfied with this album."
+10530,1,This book is overrated,"I bought this book to read on the airplane. It's light and entertaining but I expected more given all the talk about it. I was surprised at how one dimensional the characters were, particularly the black women who live to nurture white children. The bee theme was initially interesting but only served to delay the realization that this was a boring story."
+10531,1,Wrong Wrong and Wrong,"It is hard for me to dislike this product, because I didn'. The problem is they sent me the wrong color and the wrong size! I didn't return them because they were not returnable. I was just out of luck."
+10532,2,pretty good,"Let me start by saying that I have used cheap screens for years and really didn't know what I was missing. The screen is about 13 inches across so probably only suitable to use with a 11-12"" skillet or pot. The screen has a very fine mesh which stops grease pops when frying, that I really like. It is also very good with sauce splattering. I like the fact that it has bars across the screen to reinforce the mesh. That said though it does leave additional areas for the grease to build up. As for the feet, I guess there is some value but even if you turn the screen upside down it is still going to leak through onto your counter top. The screen being a very thin wire does crease easily. This does not take away from its function but I think a little thicker wire would have been better. All-in-all a very good product that could be a little better but very well worth the money."
+10533,2,A Fun Christmas Movie,"The story told here is much like the story from 'It's a Wonderful Life."" It also bears a strong resemblance to the Nicholas Cage vehicle ""The Family Man."" An upwardly mobile, single young woman has an accident on Christmas Eve and wakes up married with children. I will not go into great detail here, but she finds out what she's really been missing in her life and it changes her values and goals in life. If you like the two films I mentioned earlier, then I am sure you will enjoy this movie. I gave it four stars because all of the actors do a good job, but Paul Dooley, who plays the young woman's father is a standout and he really makes the film worth watching. This is a fun film for the entire family."
+10534,2,camera battery,This battery is exactly the same battery that came with the camera. That one lasted over 3 years. Checked other sites and this battery sells for over $40. It only had to be charged for a short time before it was fully charged. So far I'm very pleased with it.
+10535,1,This machine was trouble.,"The first machine only toasted the bottom and not the top but customer service said they had their ""own"" instructions for toasting. Their way led to the edges burning. Then they said that I had to pre-heat the toaster and use the baking pan. I explained to her that toasting a bagel has traditionally been a lot easier. They sent a new model that did not work correctly either. Hamilton Beach said they would refund me up to $38 (I paid $60) but if I sent the receipt they would refer it to a manager to try and get full reimbursement.Get something else if all you want to do is toast and maybe heat something up once in a while."
+10536,1,Not for the professional,"This book is for the hobbyist painter, though possibly not for an absolute beginner. It's mostly a picture book with step by step instructions on basic techniques, and materials. It covers how to set up a studio, and composition, and glosses over portraiture and figure painting.I got it mostly because I'm looking to increase my knowledge of glazing. There are a handful of techniques and that chapter takes up maybe one fifth of an already thin book. It talks very little about advanced technique, nor does it go in depth into techniques. For someone who has experience in painting and is looking for an in depth resource look elsewhere."
+10537,2,V8 for the brain,"Not a technical manual, ""Secrets and Lies"" is intended to jog the reader's mind. It is well written and his style is almost personal as he tries to convey a very subtle point - usernames and passwords are old, it's time for a non-linear solution to information security. It doesn't give answers, but rather makes you think about your particular security situation (whatever that may be) from a sideways perspective. You should keep a notebook close while you read it to capture the ideas that spring to mind."
+10538,2,You already know,"You already know this is the greatest SF TV series ever, or you wouldn't bother reading these reviews to see if everyone agrees with you. I won't give you any ratings for the episodes, because we all (and you know who we are) like every single episode - just some better than others. Now to the important stuff.1) The episodes transfered well to DVD. The sound and images are clear and no obvious changes were made to anything.2) The menu interface is interesting the first few times you use it, then it gets cumbersome.3) The extra content is decent, but I would have preferred commentary by someone actually connected with the show. The Okuda twins didn't come along until TNG, if I'm not mistaken.4) Find the Easter Eggs. Each set has them.Thanks to my lovely wife for getting this set for me. You should all be so lucky.LLAP"
+10539,2,NICE MIX OF COUNTRY CLASSICS,This is the first CD from Madacy that I have liked. It contains a nice mix of 20 songs. If it had contained liner notes (similar to Ace records) I would have given it a 5.
+10540,2,Right on Target!,"After reading this book, it became clear to me, why people arent successful in life, but thats a whole other article. The point is that I've seen these techniques in action and they work! I also see the opposite side (unfortunately) and I can tell what the parent is doing wrong at any given moment.if you're a parent who trying to get to your kids, or you're someone who wants to have kids but is scared because you don't know how to raise them, BUY THIS BOOK!!"
+10541,1,Great if you like the your rice undercooked in 90 minutes,"I bought this as a gift for my live-in boyfriend since he's been wanting a good rice cooker for a while. Even though my old electric rice cooker always had a bit of rice stick to the bottom of it, it was faster and came out better. The measuring markers on the inner pan are completely useless and must have been designed by either a complete genius (who cannot explain things simply) or a complete moron (who can't explain things at all). Ditto for the instruction manual. The brown rice setting takes at least 90 minutes, which is far longer than the 20 minutes of my pressure cooker. Even at 90 minutes, the rice is very chewy and tastes like it needed to cook for another half hour. Even the white rice I've cooked in it comes out tasting woody, and I've tried different grains from basmati to jasmine."
+10542,2,"Reading it didn't help, unfortunately","I've read several of Parks' book, enjoyed them all. Reading this one about life in a small town (not Verona, but Montecchio, which is in Verona Province; Verona is a city of 250,000) did not warn me off moving to Verona for three years, 2005-2008. Verona, though a small city, is really a conglomeration of neighborhoods, and I should have listened to Parks more. But who knew?Long story short, nothing, and I mean nothing, prepares you for living in Italy except actually going there and doing it. We returned after three years. Our favorite saying is, The USA has its craziness, too, but it's our craziness and we grew up understanding it. Italians are the most exasperating people, though I know that Italians say that about Americans.Read this book, don't discount any of it, and know that living in Italy part-time as in 'Under the Tuscan Sun' is not the same as 365 days a year. Italy is a really great place to visit."
+10543,1,This book is weak!,"It is often the case that one has to purchase a book just because it is the reference text book for the course. Well, I got this book and I found that they it does not have what it takes to be a reference book. The only reason this book was referred to as the reference text book is because the instructor is friend with that Cruz guy! I am going to sell it when the semester is over, because it is VERY expensive for the cheap information that is included in it. My recommendations: get for example spectrometric identification of organic compounds 7th ed silverstein 2005 or any newer editions. Funny thing is that the second edition of Cruz book is that it has mistakes which were not found in the 1st edition LOL!"
+10544,2,A pleasant surprise,This book has sat on my bookshelf for over 12 months unread. For some reason I had the perception that it was going to be hard going.Wrong!This book is very easy to read. It provides an insight to an ancient world in an easy to read format. Written as a novel Jacq has struck an excellent and entertaining method of sharing fact bolstered by fiction.You will be keen to read the next volume.
+10545,2,Its what you need.,Its a great knife super thick and heavy steel. In my book its better to have a heavier knife. It alright in sharpness but the grip feels mighty and it sounds awesome to say I have a smith & Wessen Homeland security tanto and they won't know if your talking about a gun or a knife.haha
+10546,2,Excellent read aloud books for young children,"My son is 5 and was recently in hospital. While we were there, a friend lent us the first 8 books in this series, so we started to read them, two chapters at a time. I read aloud while he rested and within one chapter, he was hooked! We've gone through the first four so far and my son loves them! We'll definitely be buying more in the series."
+10547,1,"Great Movie, Wrong Medium, Maybe Wrong Material","This DVD is ""Region 2"" format, meaning it is made for Europe and unlikely to play on US players. There was no warning of this until I opened the package.The label made it clear that removing the Region 2 warning and opening the jewel case would make it unacceptable for returning, so I am not sure whether or not the ""Red Headed Stranger"" movie is on the disc. However, the part of the package that I can see makes it seem very unlikely that it contains the movie. I bought this item because it is sometimes described as the Red Headed Strnager movie. But, it is also sometimes described as ""The Life And Times Of Willie Nelson"". Be careful!By the way, the movie is great if you enjoy Willie!"
+10548,1,A dissapointment,"After hearing much about the much publicized ""Pre""I was disappointed with the actual book. While theactual story of Pre's life seems somewhat compelling, the author didn't seem to do the man justice. Instead of bringing the drama and intensity of Steve's life and races to the page, it read merely like a box score. Poorly written and poorly developed, a big disappointment."
+10549,1,Dissapointed,"Lights are not made for the Northest. With sporadic sunlight, cloudy winter skies and inconsistant sunlight, performance is very POOR. I have yet to have a full night of actual lighted walkway. Not happy at all with the overall performance."
+10550,2,A whole new perspective on golf gamesmanship,"Its a good book if you want to gain a mental edge in your weekly foursome. It give some interesting insights into betting, strategy and sportsmanship."
+10551,1,Syntax & Semantic Reference Guide,"This book should be called the ""Syntax & Semantic Reference Guide for Common Lisp"". It is not a primer on Common Lisp; for the most part the author spews information about the specification (which he was part of forming). This might be the best reference book on Lisp ever written, but don't attempt to try and learn the Lisp language from this text."
+10552,2,Great item,I have used this shoe tree for years and have never hada problem with them wearing out. Excellant for all shoes.
+10553,2,Magic Wall Organizer,"The organizer is very sturdy and well-built. It was easy to install. Even brooms, etc. without large handles will fit; I used it for my umbrellas as well as mops and dusters. Items can be easily removed. One disappointment: it only holds 5 items."
+10554,2,Solid Peeler,"I purchased this peeler because my flimsy Victorionox $3 peeler's blade snapped right off. I received recommendation of this peeler being ""the best peeler invented"" by a fellow chef. I was not disappointed at all, the blade is sharp, the handle is comfortable and it flies through potatoes and carrots. I have even been told it lays waste to coconuts. If you're looking for a reasonably priced peeler, look no further."
+10555,2,"What Loux does, he does well","""Metaphysics"" has meant many things to many different people. Loux helpfully distinguishes in the introduction between general and special metaphysics. The former concerns being qua being, and the latter concerns disparate topics such as free will, cosmology, and God. Loux said he would only concern himself with general metaphysics. Specifically, he concerns himself with Anglophone general metaphysics from 1950 to 1990. Thus, the subtitle, ""A Contemporary Introduction.""Loux treats universals (realism vs. nominalism), concrete particulars (substrata vs. bundles, persistence through time), propositions, and modality (necessity and possibility). He handles matters will a degree of explicitness, thoroughness, and evenhandedness. The text is challenging at points--I attribute this to the fact that metaphysics cannot be dumbed down.All in all, quite thorough and an excellent introduction to contemporary general metaphysics."
+10556,1,"beautiful clock, terrible quality","it surely looked pretty and when it worked it sounded great. The tone would wake you without being jarring. And then one day it just quit working. So we jiggled it and looked around to see what was loose.It worked again for a while then one day no more chimes. Something fell off. When I contacted the company to replace this $90 alarm clock we'd had less than a year or repair it the answer wasn't great. They'd give me a small credit but they couldn't repair it. I could apply the credit to a new clock.It really was pretty and it was great to wake up to, I just wish it had lasted a year."
+10557,2,Entertaining and Enlightening: What More Do You Want?,"Lady of Horses has a permanent place on my bookshelf. I have often picked it up to re-read one of my favorite parts (and ended up spending the whole day on it). Its handling of serious issues, sense of justice, and unusual setting are enlightening, while Tarr's unique use of irony and other elements makes it entertaining (let's face it, a book just has to be entertaining). It's also almost impossible to put down, so beware!"
+10558,1,WTF?????????????????????,Glad I RENTED this steaming pile! How can a studio make money on this tripe????????????
+10559,1,"HORRIBLE recipes, unrealistic expectations!","Yes, it is completely true what the other reviewers have pointed out - this book has RIDICULOUS standards that no human being could possibly live up to. When I first purchased this book (luckily second-hand so I didn't pay full price) I was very excited about having a wealth of knowledge and recipes at my fingertips. But as soon as I started reading it, it just made me feel so guilty and horrible about everything I ate before I knew I was pregnant, and also what I was expected to do now that I know. Talk about ruining the experience! I even tried some of the recipes in the book - the veggie soup was bogus and ""FUDGE BROWNIES""??? Give me a break, those were the most disgusting things I have ever tried to eat. They were not chocolately in the least but rather tasted like some kind of fig bars. Just listen to your body and your doctor's advice and skip this piece of trash!"
+10560,1,Fire and Ice: The Korean War,"This book read like a reference book. There was a dry history of the Korean campaign, followed by chapters on armaments, ranks and insignias, contributing military groups, etc., with lots of statistics. I had been expecting more of a dialog about strategies, rationales for battles, human interest stories, overcoming hardships, etc."
+10561,1,Already Broken,"I bought this in January. It worked ok, nothing special. And now its broken. It didnt last even a full 5 months. Really disappointed!"
+10562,2,This is music!,"This is music! Phil Collins has exactly what it takes to bring this band to the forefront. Genesis was already a flower beginning to bud, but now with Phil in the lead, the transformation is complete. This is the Genesis that everyone knows."
+10563,1,It was nice while it lasted.,"I loved this belly jewelry. However, I wore it for a matter of a week and it fell apart. I guess you really do get what you pay for, and that isn't much."
+10564,2,Excellent lectionary resource,"One side-effect of the common lectionary used by Catholics, Episcopaleans, Lutheran, and various mainstream Protestant churches is the development of some excellent lectionary based resources. (A lectionary contains the Biblical readings for a given Sunday).This series of three volumes for the three year lectionary cycle (each year concentrates on a synoptic Gospel - Matthew, Mark or Luke) contains music, poetry, art, etc. that in some way reflect on the Scripture for a given Sunday. The volumes are carefully multicultural.An example: for the first Sunday in Advent, there are poems by Philipp Nicolai with Carl P. Daw Jr, and Alberto Taule; a photo of a cross of the community by the artisans of La Palma, El Salvador; a responsory reading by Miriam Therese Winter; and a painting by Glen Strock.Each Sunday is equally diverse. You should always be able to find something that meets your needs and/or challenges you to reconsider your needs. Highly recommended."
+10565,1,big disappointment,"This is not a review on the product so much as the seller. My 12 year old son bought the game shark. He was so excited when it arrived quickly.Imagine his disappointment when it didn't work.I wrote to the seller received a prompt apology and was told the money would be returned.All that's great and much appreciated,but guess what? I am still waiting more than a month later.This is supposed to be a reputable seller.In my opinion that remains to be seen."
+10566,1,Unstable and high burn danger,This would have been a good product but the reversible plates are poorly secured and the rear hinge cannot be locked into either position causing it to be very unstable. Every metal surface becomes extremely hot and is a high burn danger. It makes great waffles--but how badly do you want a waffle?
+10567,1,Wolo makes low quality products!,"Beware of this low quality horn from Wolo. I installed this into my car as described in the instructions, also kept the horn opening pointing downwards so as to protect it from rain, etc. This horn didn't last more than 3 months. Now it sounds like it's dying and I barely used it. Piece of junk!"
+10568,2,Akita Inu Owner,"This stuff is not meant for every dog - althought it does work - the smell is ok - but if you have a dog that is skin sensative to products or is flaking, itching this is the product for your dog! I have an Akita and their skins flake and itch very easy to most products. The Miracle Coat Shampoo is GREAT! My God he had a bad case of flaking and itching - and this really works!Miracle Coat Shampoo Concentrate - Gallon"
+10569,2,Great book!,"I thought this book was a true pleasure to read. I've read and reread this one, and as numerous other reviews on it have said, it turned the horrid plot of the game into an excellent, enjoyable book. And to anyone thinking it is too gruesome, yes it is gruesome, but there is more to the plot than simple gore, and the way it was written conveys perfectly the way the characters no doubt think, which for me, is how I think as well. I recommend it to anyone, whether they have played the game or not."
+10570,1,Disappointed,The mop does not pick up any dirt or hair. I would prefer the cheapest traditional mop over this one. Disappointed at this purchase.
+10571,2,one more oater,"lots of potential, good view of two greats, but a third great, John Ford, would have ""kicked it up a notch""."
+10572,2,The last Hitchcock `s farewell!,"Truffaut really looked outstanding with this somber psychological study of the human soul, its affections and reminiscences around the intend of reviving a past passionate love affair, when the casualty face them again. She is his neighbor but he is happily married, though she really does not care about it, because she is living her actual passion as if the time would have suspended. In this state of things this fact is not any obstacle to her.A true gem of the French Cinema that has proved countless opportunities how handle with this issue. Depardieu and Ardant are both perfect: the final scene is simply unforgettable.A true icon picture."
+10573,2,These guys could make anything funny!,"Absolutely love this group!! And if you feel the same you will love this mini-series! Great characters and your typical Kids In The Hall comedy about having fun with risky topics(SMALL SMALL SPOILER-I felt evil laughing hysterically at the love between the dead guy and his gay lover, but the script and Scott Thompson pulled it off perfectly. Kind of like their cancer-boy character from before...disturbing but can't stop laughing).It's great seeing the group back and as good as they've always been. If you like their past...bizarre characters, dramatic acting even though it's a comedy, and a intelligent story and script that always makes you ask how that did that scene without cracking up, this show is for you.Now...WE NEED ANOTHER FEATURE FILM!!"
+10574,1,Pulls on OVER your HEAD ...,"I hate this bra. I have no idea what purpose the hooks serve. It goes on over your head. Look closely at the picture of the back, read the reviews ... I wish I had. I have several slightly similar Champion bras from several years back that I loved so much - they had great control, and although I bought them for exercise, I started wearing them all the time. Champion sadly no longer makes them, but I thought this bra looked very similar to them and probably had similar ""engineering,"" but I was mistaken. The strangest thing is, for all its massive structure in the back (which you can't get to to try to adjust without doing some straitjacket-like contortions), the support is minimal. Can't express how disappointed I am in this product."
+10575,2,Great Learning Tool,"This video is a great learning tool for my 2 year old. She watches it, she knows all the songs, and it really re-enforces to her the importance of potty time."
+10576,2,Simple but useful,Easy to hand and works like a charm. Spacing of hooks is far enough apart so belts don't tangle yet close enough for the whole to be compact in a tiny closet.
+10577,1,Not impressed by the singing,"While I enjoy the music as well as the story, I was bothered by the scream-singing that seemed to be a part of the last verse of so many of the songs. An example is Who Will Love Me as I am. I really like this song, but on this recording it is ruined in the last verse by all the overdone belting. In my book, just being able to be LOUD and doesn't make you a good singer - in fact it kind of hurt my ears sometimes. On so many songs, it seemed to me that the singers had been instructed to blow out their vocal cords at the ends of songs, not to add to the emotion, but just ""because that's what you do"". This totally ruined perfectly good songs for me, because this belting seemed to come from nowhere, like it was just thrown in because those involved felt it was what an audience wanted to hear. The resulting sound kind of made me feel like I was listening to a Forbidden Broadway CD that was making fun of this type of vocal use in musicals."
+10578,2,This song rocks!,"I recently went to Switzerland with some friends, and at a local club they played this song. It was fabulous! We didn't have any idea what is was or who sings it, but by the time we got back, half the group had copies. The other half are getting them soon. This is the coolest song on the face of earth."
+10579,1,Chuck and Buck,"I'm not sure why people find this movie funny. Its not funny, its depressing. The entire movie is about one persons misery and how he tries to cope with suppressed childhood homosexuality. I was expecting a dark comedy, which its not."
+10580,1,disappointing,"The DVD was in good shape. The disappointing comes into play when you watch the movie. Lloyd Bridges should have stayed underwater with Scuba gear. The plot was a real letdown even for ""B"" 50's scifi."
+10581,1,Panasonic 2563W,"Not very happy with the clarity of this phone. Also, very uncomfortable the way it rests on my ear and it also feels like I am talking into an echo. Taking it back to Staples tomorrow. Overpriced. Unsure of what else to buy. Just glad to dispose of it."
+10582,1,worthless,"I hope those who just got this and think this is a great product don't get burned like I did. I thought it was great at first too, but after a few weeks the battery held less and less charge and finally wouldn't charge at all. No help from customer service. Do not buy this."
+10583,1,Not what was expected,My granddaughter that I bought it for was not interested in this doll. I should have sent it back. Waste..
+10584,2,Looks Good & Works Great,"Just bought this unit last week on the Internet. Contrary to the below review, my receiver works as advertised and I am very happy with it. Programing can be a little tricky, but it doesn't take a rocket scientist degree to do. I received my first alert yesterday during a severe Florida storm and also received a test alert today. All in all the Oregon Scientific Portable Public Alert Radio, Model WR108 works as advertised. I also like the fact that the unit can be taken with you on a short trip or long vacation without taking up much space."
+10585,1,Depressing!,"I am a dedicated anglophile, so I thought I would enjoy reading this book. Boy was I wrong. As the above reviewer said, all Bryson does is complain. The whole book is about how things have gone from bad to intolerable since 1973. I read about 5 chapters before I went into a blue funk about my upcoming trip to Great Britain. The book is going back!"
+10586,1,Dumping it down the drain,"This product obviously works well for most but it made my twins extremely fussy, gassy, and spit up like crazy. Not only did I hate to see them screaming with discomfort, but it was the hardest day I've had yet as a new mom to twins. Yes, I said ""day."" I took MMP as directed for only one day. The babies fussed all day and night leaving me no time to pump to even see if there was an increase in supply. I cut out the MMP and went back to plain fenugreek the next day and everyone is happy again. I'm pretty sure it's the blessed thistle that caused the issues. I tried previously adding blessed thistle capsules to my supplementation routine and we had similar issues, although not anywhere near the degree as with MMP. I hate leaving a negative review for a product so widely loved and touted, but I didn't find anything about effects similar to my experience so I felt the need to share."
+10587,1,This DVD player ruined Christmas - twice!,"I ordered TWO of these puppies for Christmas gifts. When we tried to hook up the first one, it was broken - the motor would not eject discs or close the door. Strike 1.When I tried to install the second DVD player in my brothers house, THAT ONE DIDN""T WORK EITHER! Imagine my shock - and absolute instant disdain for any products made by Apex. The 2nd DVD player had a faulty power supply which caused to occasionally not turn on.Do not recommend."
+10588,2,Unlike Anyone Else Actually,"I disagree that Jack Scott sounded like any other singer of his time unless you can count the moody Leonard Cohen. I remember his consistent hits and found ""Burning Bridges"", ""My True Love"" and others to be much more substantial than the teenybopper favorites (Frankie Avalon, Fabian, etc). But I got the impression even at my tender years that Scott (born Giovanni Safone, Jr, in Canada) was like one of those coffeehouse artists who come out, perform their music and exit the stage without taking a bow. I have no memory of ever seeing his picture anywhere in the teen culture; it was if he were a ""grown-up"" and everybody else was a kid--it even made me a little uneasy to think that. But his records were popular (while they lasted), then music changed as it often does. Jack's best work, I believe, is right here. No need to lament; he made his mark. Enjoy."
+10589,2,Wow.,"Unlike most albums, this CD does not have a single dud. Every song is by turns exiting, beautiful, calming, heart-breaking, relaxing, cheering. All are breathtaking. Beyond my favorite CD - of many hundreds - this album grabs your emotions and mood by the lapels and shakes -right up until the last note and long after."
+10590,1,Garbage!,Pieces of the steamer came off when I lifted it out of the shipping container. Soon after one of the legs fell off. It's constructed so that you can't repair it. Unbelievable! I just bought something to add to the land fill. I'm furious!
+10591,2,Great Book that every homeowner should have!,This book is wonderfull. Full of great tips for anyone selling thier home or just looking for inexpensive ways do update the home they want to stay in!
+10592,2,The best Cd I've bought in months (maybe years),"If you don't have this CD, you are MISSING OUT. I normally don't even buy CD's anymore, but after hearing a few tracks off of it, I HAD to buy it!On her slow tracks, her voice is so smooth and soothing. My favorite is ""Now U want my love"". Its got a little reggae vibe.She is so tight! She's like a mix of Alicia Keys and Lauryn Hill with her own syle! She's cRaZy!! Ya'll need to stop sleepin and check her out!"
+10593,1,Just give us a sermon instead,"There are of course, several songs on this CD which are actually songs, i.e., tracks 2-7 and 9-10. But Lee Greenwood only wrote one of them, and it is the least melodic and the most hokey.Tracks 1 and 8 are just awful. ""Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, ugh!"" Puh-leeez. It's not even good music.Not to mention the fact that one track lists two freedoms of - speech, religion - and then two freedoms from - want and fear ... a complete butchering of the First Amendment.But what else is new in our hyper-patriotic, hyper-consumerist country?"
+10594,1,"AVOID!!! Worked once. Since then just cold, slightly colored water.","AVOID!!! We bought this machine because it looked great, and figured for the price it must be high quality and expected years of good service. It worked ONCE...only ONCE. Since then, despite multiple attempts, it has only produced cold, slightly colored water. AVOID. I feel so ripped off....especially for the price. I was expecting years of service. At least my cheap one from Walmart a lasted several years."
+10595,2,Insight into the Bar life.,Ty Wenzel did a fantastic job of letting me see and imagine thru her words the actions that went on behind the bar scenes. i lived thru her eyes a little fantasy life. Some were a little scary and some were funny. Being a moslem girl myself it was nice to see someone came out of her sterotypical life to do and speak about it. BRAVO!
+10596,2,Skillful Prose and a Frightening Ontology,"This book is one of those great combinations of great writing skill and a poignant message that cuts to the soul of human existence. His skillful and unique second person treatment of the narrative is captivating. And, while you are being caught up in what a strange perspective both the presentation of the book and the main chraracter have, you are jarred by the realization of the emptiness below you and that you , too, are falling."
+10597,1,"SADLY , SADLY","WEBSTER WOULD SAY THAT I AM ""AFFECTED WITH UNHAPPINESS"" AND HE WOULD BE CORRECT. THIS OFFERING IS REPETITIOUS AND BORING. A GOOD THOUGHT CRAMMED IN A NOISY BOX AND OCCASIONALLY ALLOWED TO SURFACE. SEE A PAIR OF HANDS GLEEFULLY RUBBED TOGETHER AT THE CLINKING OF THE COINS THIS HYPED UP CLATTER IS GENERATING? THERE IS TRUTH IN ADVERTISING IF YOU LOOK CLOSE ENOUGH."

+10599,1,Battery eater!!,"I'd give this 0 stars if I could. I bought mine from QVC. It eats batteries. It opened 3 cans on a fresh set of batteries, then died while opening a can. I had to pry it off. I have arthritis so I thought this would be a godsend. Thank Gawd QVC took it back after 2 months.HORRIBLE, DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY."
+10600,2,Peels better than any other peeler,"I purchased this because of the many good reviews here on Amazon.Once I got it - I was excited to use it, on potatoes, sweet potatoes, carrots, and more.All I have to say is that is peels with pinpoint accuracy.The rubber grip also helps ease your hand after you've been peeling for a while too."
+10601,1,Amateur night at the writer's guild,Poorly written and hard to follow with any degree of continuity or clarity. I suspect Rivers was a much better ball player than writer with his past player status getting him a nod from his publisher.
+10602,1,not as good as his first english cd,"It just seems like mr. marc is trying way too hard in english. nothing will compare to his music in spansih ever!tragedy is ok, but it's a weak I need to know. This attempt is a tragedy! sorry my marc...please sing in Spanish.."
+10603,1,Beware of no-name remanufactured cartridges from Abacus store,"These cartridges are represented (and shown in the photo) as genuine HP. However, when I bought one (at that moment, cartridges were sold via Abacus 24-7 store) I have received a no-name box with a prominent ""Remanufactured"" sticker on it. Deceptive advertising at its worst."

+10606,2,"Great Graphics, not the same","Super Mario 64 is based in the oringinal Super Mario for Nintendo 64. It's not easy using the DS controls and the touch screen on this game. The Graphics are 1o* better than the oringinal and you can be Luigi, Wario, and Yoshi in addition to the oringinal. Overall, it's a great game but just isn't the same."
+10607,2,"People, places, circumstances, vivid and VERY entertaining","It's been a long time since I've read a book I felt this addicted to. And this is only the second time this bookworm has written a review on amazon. The story never faulters, always flows, always keeps you wondering. The characters start out as hippies--a group--and then become individuals who you come to know. They are a bunch of young kids striving for ideals, but of course are like all of human kind, with weaknesses, foibles, strengths, unique backgrounds, and passions. It's the messes we get into that make for good tales. I've lived in the Southwest and Alaska both, and I love sense of place in stories, so this book was a delicious treat in this way, as well. Get Drop City and look up my name on amazon if you want another book set in Alaska."
+10608,2,GOOD PRODUCT BUT...,Good product but I thought it was going to be like the BELKIN WI-FI telephone that could be Connected to any secured or open access WiFi network. It is just to use at your office or home. You cannot take it anywhere else
+10609,2,Received exactly as expected,"Just what I ordered in a few short days. The packaging was too big for the item and it rolled around in the oversized box, but wasn't damaged."
+10610,1,Not what I thought I was geting,"Please know that this cuddle pal is very small. Also I received a duck, not a mouse, which is disappointing because I chose this product because it was a mouse. Like the other reviewer I wonder how much or how old the catnip is... Jackson is really uninterested. Total bummer.I gave it 2 stars instead of 1 because it is pretty damn cute if you are interested in a duck.."
+10611,1,A slow death,"We followed the directions on this plant, but it had a slow death. People said it would take some time to adapt, so we cared for it but it never seemed to adapt. It finally did die after the Amazon 30 day warranty. Now we are stuck with a dead plant and a pot. We'd love to try a replacment plant if Amazon is up for sending one."
+10612,1,Tedious to Read,"I wanted to like ""Maiden,"" I really did, I just couldn't get into it. It's written in the first-person in a semi-stream-of-consciousness style and was, for me, almost impossible to enjoy, or follow. The moral dilemma and dichotomy of being a cynical virgin in today's society just wasn't enough to string together this rather random story, which lacked plot and pacing. It just wasn't enjoying to try and read--more like work, than fun. I focused so much on HOW the book was written (and it was poorly written, as far as I am concerned), I was never ever able to enjoy the story, such as it was."
+10613,2,Works great,This unit takes a little getting used to as it is significantly different than my old unit which was at least 7 years old. Some great features here the defrost is exceptional defrosting without cooking the food. Popcore works fine however as per the instructions you must have an upside down pie plate for it to cook correctly. If you don't it does not pop all the corn. reheating dishes is exceptionally easy and the electronics are pretty intuitive after a short period of use. Overall a great unit for the $.
+10614,2,One of the most impressive books I have ever read on the subject,"Not a light read by any means, but so very worth it. I can't add much to what the other reviewers have said, but I have read countless books on religion/Biblical interpretation and so forth, and Mr. Kuhn's works are by far the most comprehensive, and most valuable, that I have found so far. I have read Massey, and Harpur as well as others, and there is simply no comparison. Kuhn shines like a beacon in the night. It is sad that this book is not well known, or given the rich recognition that it undoubtedly deserves. It will likely change your life."
+10615,2,Great,"You know, i enjoyed this film. i thought it was quite creative and the universe that Lucas has created is quite believable. One thing you have to do is just simply accept that Lucas' dialogues are gonna be cheesy. me and my friends made fun of the cheesy romantic dialogue after we saw the film opening night. but making fun of the dialogue made the film more enjoyable.I was very pleased that R2D2 and C3PO were brought back for their comedic roles, which were absolutely hillarious!and i agree with many who have said that the last 45 minutes or so finally brought back some of the magic missing in the Phantom Menace, but sparkled throughout the first three films.And who can say anything bad about Yoda showing up at the end and proving why he is Master Jedi.keep up this feel Lucas with the last one, and PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE!!!!! get someone else to help you with the dialogue."
+10616,2,Hot!,"This is the book I've been waiting for. What took so long? Is it so hard to conceive a sophisticated Latin lifestyle book? While it's filled with so many traditional and nuevolatino recipes, great cocktails, and decor ideas I love how it adds other elements of Latin lifestyle--namely travel and cultural customs. I looooove this book. Most of the food is pretty simple to prepare. The beautiful pictures really inspire you!These sexy authors need their own Spanish and English language show on Food Network!!"
+10617,2,Off the hook,Number 1 this is a Wu CD so its gotta be recognized. Tec9 you are a fool this CD is hot. Re-Up is the hottest track on the CD peace.

+10620,1,Defeating Liberalism?,"For everyone praising this book, I would just like to remind everyone what liberalism actually is:1. The state or quality of being liberal.2. A political theory founded on the natural goodness of humans and the autonomy of the individual and favoring civil and political liberties, government by law with the consent of the governed, and protection from arbitrary authority.3. Often Liberalism the tenets or policies of a Liberal party.4. An economic theory in favor of laissez-faire, the free market, and the gold standard.5. A 19th-century Protestant movement that favored free intellectual inquiry, stressed the ethical and humanitarian content of Christianity, and de-emphasized dogmatic theology.I'm glad to see that Sean Hannity thinks that America should defeat this evil thing people are calling liberalism.p.s. Sean Hannity sucks."
+10621,2,Lumina,"I am so please I bought this item its the best little Lighted Hair remover i have ever bought , its great , I have been pleased with every thing I've bought from Amazom ."
+10622,1,Amazon should be ashamed of themselves,"Half the reviews here aren't even for Tenchi Muyo! Ryo-ohki OAV3 boxset, but for completely different Tenchi series or movies which have their own merits and defects.Before they lumped everything together last year or the year before that, this particular product had 2-1/2 stars and 8-9 reviews or thereabouts. Amazon certainly doesn't send you all the products for the price of one! But somehow saw the need to hide all the negative reviews by this tactic.OAV3 just has my scorn. It's certainly not in the spirit of OAV1/2, it relies heavily on the background which was never officially translated into English, and a lot of characters/situations come out of nowhere because of that. I didn't like it but others may.My greater concern is how Amazon is treating it's customers like crap by lying to them in their faces -- if you didn't read the reviews carefully, you may be thinking this is a 5-star product. It is not."
+10623,2,I keep coming back to it.,"I love this game. It has a lot of extras to download and keeps me playing it. The large maps are the best for sniping, and the action and many different weapons make this a winner."
+10624,2,Exceptionally gripping,"Reading the new WWII novel, The Triumph and the Glory, rekindled my interest in the Pacific war, and spurred me to read the Gordon Prange books, which I'd meant to do long ago. Miracle at Midway presents both sides of this crucial battle in fine style, and creates great suspense even though we all know the outcome. A great book!"
+10625,2,Believeable Action movie,The movie was action packed and very believeable....one of Micky Rouke's best movies...I would definitely recommend it if you are looking to see an interesting New York police drama.
+10626,2,Great avant-garde jazz-rock,"This disk features very cool avant-garde music that's half-jazz, half-rock, and maybe a few other things as well. Main instruments are electric guitar (w/ heavy rock distortion), harp, trombone and other horns, violin, and Kitty Brazelton's voice. Some folks, I believe, call music like this ""Downtown Jazz"", but I'd identify it as ""RIO"", as it has a lot in common with the avant-jazzy tendencies of Henry Cow, the foremost RIO (Rock in Opposition) band. This music is a bit grittier though, as Brazelton's vocals are kind of husky, and there's a bit 'squonkier' sound to the horns. Highly recommended to folks looking for something fun and a bit different."
+10627,1,Magnavox Lemon,"I too had problems with this TV. It would never play any of my DVD's even new ones. After about 3 months, the picture just suddenly died. I can still get sound but no picture. I would never buy another Magnavox."
+10628,2,Bridgeport by Andrew Pehanick,"I enjoyed the book. I received it as a gift and have ordered one for a friend. Was disappointed there wasn't more on Black Rock where I grew up. I lived across the street from the ""Orphan Asylum"", pictured. I went to Black Rock School and spent afternoons at St. Mary's, climbing on the rocks along the boulevard and worked at Reads Dept. Store when at Bassick High. Loved looking at the clothes people wore and the architecture."
+10629,1,Lasted for a few years,"This was a decent item i remember buying from a target/walmart type store. super excited to get a volume to price ratio that was good for me. While yes it did work for awhile it did eventually bow and i mean every piece of press board bowed. i kinda put it in a closet and forgot about it over this last year and when I checked on it all the shelves had fallen down onto the tops of the dvds below. this happen on each level. I think it lasted for about 3 to 4 years but now it pretty useless, unless some one knows how to warp press wood. the problem with the design is that it just doesn't have enough support, the walls are thin and the pegs are short."
+10630,2,bug and tar gel,i have to say this product is great it works just as it should i have no complaints. Now the forcast in arkansas showed rain this week so i had an idea i just washed my truck so after i compleatly coated my truck in this thin wash it off i didnt know how it would work so when it started to rain i took of in my truck ran around all day the rain ran off like nothin it worked amazingly i dont know how long it lasted but it heald up to a full week of hail heavy rain and skin piercing rain and when it cleard my truck was still as clean as it was befor i put this on and bone dry i give the product 4stars only because i havent been able to find it in a larger bottle
+10631,1,Ehh.,"I have mixed feelings about this item. It's a great resource tool, when you don't have the internet. When I bought it I didn't realize it was available to listen to (free) on the Yookoso website. Oh well. Still a good product, but I would advise using the website until you think you need the disks all the time."
+10632,1,disappointing early effort from an author better later,"I greatly enjoyed some of Varley's later work, so I decided to back up and try this series. I am relieved I only bought the first book. Its shallow characters and predictable plotline left me unwilling to read very far in it. Worse, to my unpleasant surprise, it has line drawing illustrations clearly aimed at the fantasy life of adolescent males - don't read this in an airport where a child and her outraged mother might catch a glimpse of the illustrations. Sorry I bought it but I give it 2 stars rather than 1 because there is at least some effort at a plot."
+10633,2,Very romantic,"I like love stories and I LOVE Keanu Reeves and Sandra Bullock. So the two of them together in a romantic movie, that's a sure winner for me. And it was. It's not the greatest of love stories (therefore 'only' four stars), but it's definitely very entertaining, romantic and worth watching. I agree with an earlier reviewer who said it's a great date movie, as there is even something in the movie that you can talk about afterwards. Nice detail: Dutch actress Willeke van Ammelrooij as mother of Sandra Bullock!"
+10634,2,Good but not the best,"This new 10 Foot Pole album is with no doubt a good melodic punk album, they didn't loose their power when they're playing. In my my opinion UNleashed is a better album, but they managed to keep their punk quality."
+10635,1,not as advertised,"Delivery was timely. Camera works and software is adequate. Price is right. But the LEDs surrounding the lens are white-light like the LED flashlights available. Low light conditions are overcome by a good stong visible light, not infra-red light. So one star for false advertising and four for the item itself. I hate false advertising!"
+10636,1,hello!!! what happened here???,"Ok lets get right to the point veary chingon movie, lots of action good gangster s*** but this!!! I mean wheres the firme musica??? You would think with such a great movie the soundtrack to the movie would be so bueno but it just doesent grab my attention at all. I mean some of the songs are good like the one bye Funkadoobiest and Girls It Aint Easy bye the 4 Corners and the one bye Boss Catch Hit and Run but on these songs they are a different version of the songs not the ones like the way they were in the movie and they left some good songs out for instence, the one So Ruff so Tuff by Zapp and Roger great song!!! but not on there. Well I have them already it's just the point that they left some stuff out. Well... just understand me, in what i'm saying and get somthing else like the Bound By Honor soundtrack. Now thats a good one!!! as for the 1 in rating well you figure it out."
+10637,2,This artist Britney Spears is the best Female singer out!,"I think this artist Britney Spears is an excellent singer and dancer, she has a wonderful voice and is wicked HOTTTTTTTTTT!!!"
+10638,2,Fisher Price Jumperoo,The Jumperoo was a great product and has met all of my expectations. The price was right and it will be perfect for a 6 month old baby.
+10639,2,wii game,"This game isn't as much fun as some of the wii games are - I think perhaps it was made for children, but it is worth purchasing, and a controller comes with it, so the game itself doesn't cost much more than purchasing a controller"
+10640,1,Poor Kindle edition,I got the Kindle edition of this book.Font is very hard to read and there is a lot of mangled words.Images in the book are unusable due the poor quality (too grainy).There are no navigational elements in this book. These are not essential but it would nice to have them. Especially for figures and footnotes.I love reading books on Kindle but for this one I recommend a hard copy.
+10641,1,Absolute Lies!,"The entire book is a fiction. Lynn Garrison was employed by the brutal dictators and military regime. He was responsible for obtaining a forgery of a ""medical report"" on Aristide declaring him to be mentally unstable. He was on the military payroll to get Aristide out of power. He later admitted to being paid to get the forgery. If you want a true account of what has been going on in Haiti over the years, read ""The Uses of Haiti"" by Paul Farmer, a man who has lived and worked in Haiti for well over 20 years. Don't believe this self-agrandizing propaganda!"
+10642,2,Excellent Selection,This is a very polished and well produced album full of great songs and some techno mixed in to create a very popular album.
+10643,2,good,"Cheap, plastic, lightweight. Gets the job done. I basically put it in place and left it, and it's done its job perfectly well. I don't know how long it's going to last? Like I may not trust it in an application where I needed to constantly plug and unplug things, but it's good enough for my applications and it was a very, very good price."
+10644,1,Watch Deep Impact instead.,"This was the MTV version of Deep Impact. Deep Impact was far more realistic, far more dramatic, had far better acting, and was just all in all a better movie. But if you want to watch a movie for the sheer visceral thrill of expensive special effects, this one is for you."
+10645,1,Norton Antivirus 2004 Upgrade Mistake,"I recently upgraded from the 2003 version for my XP system. I have never had signficant problems with Norton Antivirus until this version. Now every few days, the program gets an ""internal error"" which permanantly turns of the protection. The only advice on the web site is to uninstall and reinstall the program. See for yourself. Search the Symantec web site for ""internal error""; there are many types. I also agree with all posts that say this is a drain on your system (much slower startup, disk runs continuously, Internet Explorer starts slower, etc.) Save yourself a headache and do not buy this product."
+10646,1,Indoor hose clamp,"My hose clamp arrived today. It's packaging includes some diagrams tht are supposed to help us attach the clamp to the faucet; however, I cannot figure out what the diagrams mean. Unless I figure this out, the connector is useless."
+10647,2,Brings back memories,"I remember playing this album (back in the days of LPs) over and over again, as I contemplated my navel... Classic collectible."
+10648,2,Great Replica,For a while I have been thinking about getting a Force FX Lightsaber. I eventually saved up enough money to get one and I spent a few weeks looking at all the different lightsabers. I eventually chose this one and I am glad I did! The lightsaber has a beautiful glow to it and it looks incredibly realistic when lit up (It lights up the whole room!). This lightsaber is however very delicate and will scratch fairly easily. As long as you don't use it for any serious fighting it should be fine. I love this lightsaber and so will you!
+10649,2,Extremely interesting.,"I really enjoyed reading this book. I'm a ""full blooded"" Iranian who has spent almost her entire life in the US and I learned a lot about how difficult it is to be ""do-rageh"" as a child, a teen and as an adult. I have some friends who are mixed and I understand their situations a little bit better now.I didn't always agree with how the author represented how it is to be Iranian and sometimes I was a little angry with her but on the other hand, she did an excellent job demystifying Iranians and the Persian culture. I just came back from Iran a few months ago and a lot of the sights and smells that she describes in her book brought back a lot of good memories from my trip.I hope she explores this subject further."
+10650,2,This one does NOT go to 11,"Stylish yes, and it's great to have a portable mp3 player at this price. But you will want better headphones (""earbuds"" are constantly dislodged), you will run through batteries, and most important, even ambient/street noise will overwhelm your music through headphones. Recommended, though, for remote/rural listeners."
+10651,2,still good,"nas is still great and probobly the best living rapper out right now. this album is still hot but not as good as some of his other albums but still better then i am. cop itbest tracks: one mic, got yourself a gun, ether"
+10652,1,It was okay,"Truthfully, the main reason I bought the CD was because of the Friend Of Mine remix. Yes, Kelly Price has talent and I like her as an artist but this album just did not touch me in any special way. It felt as if something vital was missing in her songs. I thought it was going to be a hit, but it isn't. Better luck next time."
+10653,2,My 8th graders liked it!,"To supplement a chapter that focuses on the ""big three"" - Henry Clay, John C. Calhoun, and Daniel Webster, I showed the beginning and end of this film to my 8th graders. They liked it very much. It helped me show how guys like D. Webster were larger than life in their life time and after. I enjoyed the black and white and the Citizen Kane-ish style, but I think this movie could be redone with contemporary stars and effects. It would be cool. If you like history and old movies, it's a good buy."
+10654,2,3x5 U.S. Flag by Valley Forge,Very nice flag! Its a well made product at a very good price! Very brilliant colors with shiny embroidered stars. I have had good luck with Valley Forge flags in the past and think they offer a good product at a reasonable price! It looks great on my flag pole and proud to fly it!
+10655,2,Not a bad product for the money,"This is a good product considering the price. Sound is decent and it's a good sound system for a laptop in a classroom. As a teacher, this sound system provides what is required for the price. Not wonderful, but not bad either. I'm happy with its performance."
+10656,2,"Better Than SNOW WHITE, BLOOD RED","Why is this fairy tale anthology out of print? It's got a great collection of stories! I liked practically everything that was in here. SNOW WHITE, BLOOD RED may have been the first volume in editors Datlow and Windling's series of such books, but this fourth one is hands-down more gripping... the stories are better written, in my opinion.Among my favorite selections from this volume are:SNOW IN DIRT by Michael BlumleinSPARKS by Gregory FrostTHE REVEREND's WIFE by Midori SnyderTHE TRUE STORY by Pat Murphy, andGODMOTHER DEATH by Jane YolenI hope BLACK SWAN, WHITE RAVEN is published once more so I can grab my own copy. I have the first three anthologies and haven't read number 2 and number 3 yet, but that was only because I had to finish this one in time to return it to the library. Thank goodness they have it!If you like this series, then I definitely recommend getting your hands on this one."
+10657,2,Excellent prouduct,"Is this really a five star lens?For the money it is.On lens perfomance alone I would give this a four star rating, but given the cost, and what you can do with it, I'll bump it up to five.The optics are quite good. Detail is excellent.However if you plan on shooting wildlife with this lens, I belive you will have to spend a great deal more money to get a lens with the reach you'll need. Say a 300mm prime with a teleconvertor. This lens has a distance limitation of about 80 feet (at 300mm) after that your subject will be ""small"". I've shot larger wildlife with this, great blue heron, at about 90-100 feet and had excellent results.As with most/all auto focus lens it will tend to ""hunt"" not a big deal though, just grab the manual focus ring (while still in AF mode)and pull your subject in manually.This lens rarely comes off my camera, it's great indoors and out, just be aware of it's distance limitations and you won't be disappointed."
+10658,2,Great Music,Great collection of cheerful tones influenced by the orient. Listening to them remindes me of being in a friendly Chinese village of long ago.
+10659,1,ZERO stars,"Hands down the worst documentary I have ever seen. I thought the story of the legend was interesting so I checked it out. It is obviously scripted and played out by a terrible crew and cast, along with atrocious editing. I can't believe I just wasted minutes of my life watching this. Horrendous. PS. I've never left a review for anything on Amazon so this is my first. That's how angry I am about watching this pathetic excuse of a film."
+10660,1,ITS HELL ALRIGHT.,"This is the WORST Cooper album of the 70's. I can't stand it. Aside from the tracks GO TO HELL and I""M GOING HOME, maybe CHASING RAINBOWS, everthing on this album is a miss. The production is worse than the music. This is one of the worst production jobs ever. The rockers are poorly written and lame. And DISCO! A low point in the career of a musical genius as evidenced by FROM THE INSIDE and KILLER, and a bunch of others I could mention. Even LACE AND WHISKEY tops this with ease. Be honest and stop overrating this lame album."
+10661,2,"Product, Amazon Exceptional","The roaster is elegant, beautiful, simple, well built. It fits perfectly on the double-cooker side of my ceramic stove-top, perfectly, and it slides into my upper oven easily with a 20 pound bird in it. The stainless rack holds the roast up high enough to let the fat fall away. The base of the lower half of the roaster is thick and spreads heat evenly. The top of the upper half can be flipped over and used as a stove top pan by itself; you can use it for making gravy or scrambling or frying eggs or brazing meat or whatever you like. This is a sure fire A-plus product, and it gets an extra plus for the price. ON AMAZON: the product was here fast, shockingly fast. Amazon is the best."
+10662,2,Improved shower system 2011,"I bought this a few weeks back. I had my concerns due to some of the reviews that stated it leaked until you switched out the washers and needed to tighten the diverter. Well Folks Peerless must have paid attention to the concerns. I had absolutely no problems with this unit leaking. It did come with rubber washers, not the plastic ones you read about and were advised to replace and I could not tighten the diverter anymore than it was. So all I can say, is the 2011 version is great specially for the price. The only reason I didn't give it a 5 star rating was that I would like more massage setting and the unit not to be plastic. I have to say you get what you pay for and for plactic it seems pretty darn sturdy. I Just told by roommates and also my boyfriend to get one. So I would highly recommend it."
+10663,2,Spider 2 Strikes Gold!,"This movie has an excellent story (better than the first). First rate acting, direction, and special effects. In my estimation, this is better than the first!"
+10664,2,Informative But Slightly Slanted,"I am a Christian who loves to read and study and learn.I found this book very informative. It did a good job of explaining what true Islam (not radical Islam) is like, and covers almost all of the area's an American Christian would question, such as how women are treated, what's the difference between a Sunni and a Shiite, what Jihad means, etc.The only reason I did not give it 5 stars is that, although not biased, the author does err a little bit when making some comparison between Islam and Christian practices and the Koran vs. the Bible, etc., but these where minor and I did not buy the book to see how nuch he knows about Christianity but rather what he could teach me about Islam."
+10665,1,"Boring, and not much help to beginners","De. Bob should stick to soap. His candle making book is not for a beginner who just wants to know the basics in simple terms and get started. Although I am sure some of the information will be helpful to the more advanced, it was not what I was looking for to get started."
+10666,2,"light weight, not one of his best, but....","This is probably Scott's least impressive performance, and it is certainly not the first book of his that someone should try when first coming upon him. That said, most of his books are worth reading. This novel is simply marred by incompetent characterizations and some admittedly sloppy writing; perhaps he wrote it in a hurry. But even this novel has a few compelling moments; it's just that you have to read 300 pages of it!"
+10667,1,A Travesty of Adaptation,"I was so disappointed in this version. The only person to whom I would recommend this movie is someone who has never actually read Persuasion or seen one of the purer movie adaptations. The movie is not without merit, but the scenes that are familiar seem to be recycle from earlier versions. Of that scenes that are not familiar, half are not even representative of the book. Apparently, the screen writers felt they were more capable of delivering Jane Austen's vision than she was. I could have forgiven the small disappointments throughout the movie if the end hadn't been varied beyond recognition. The fairy tale moment that we expect (Austen fans will know to what I refer) is so grotesquely distorted that it completely alters the character of Anne and makes her laughable instead of the heroine. The ending is absolutely slaughtered. If you love Persuasion DO NOT BUY THIS VERSION!!!"
+10668,1,This is SUCH a Disappointment!,"I don't know what she's thinking of. Every cut is just flat boring, the title song being the most reptitive -- monotonous -- meaningless--offensively boring of all! This collection has nothing to do with the lyricist who provided ""Cresent City"", or ""Passionate Kisses"", or any of the blues covers of earlier CD's. Big ""DUH"" and thumbs down on Essence. Save your dough for when she bothers to sing, or better yet, for when she starts writing again.--Elayne"
+10669,2,Leaving Anne Rice in the dust.,"I adore Jander Sunstar, I loved this book. It is one of the best vampire novels I have read. I enjoyed this more than anything Anne Rice has written. The storyline and plot made it hard for me to put this book down, Golden did a great job. I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys dark fantasy, vampires, or AD&D. I just wish Golden would write more books with Jander."
+10670,1,Mindless Action Flick,"The cast was way too good for the writing and editing in this movie. The plot was so thin, I can't believe that stars like DW, RR, VF, et al. would agree to be in this. Didn't they read the script beforehand? On the other hand, if you're a guy that enjoys a mindless, shoot 'em up, violent, car chase-filled action flick with very little plot, no character development and poor editing, then you'll enjoy this movie."

+10673,2,A superbly written historical novel,"Set in 1814 after Napoleon has abdicated as Emperor of the French, Richard Woodman's, The Shadow Of The Eagle, is a superbly written historical novel filled with intrigue and ruthless politics , from the Russian Tsar's delusions of grandeur to the naval forces of Great Britain pressing relentless war against America. A single man, Captain Nathaniel Drinkwater attending King Louis, learns of a deadly threat to peace that he must personally risk life and limb to combat. The Shadow Of The Eagle is a very compelling, entertaining, action/adventure read from first page to last."
+10674,2,This may be my favorite movie of all time!,"I watched this movie with my two daughters and it moved us all. We went out and got cds of the early Temptations that we listen to all the time. The acting is awesome - we especially loved the portrayal of Eddie Kendricks and David Ruffin. You will not be disappointed -- get this movie today! I had it taped but ordered it on cd! The TEMPTATIONS will never die!! Almost forty years later my mom, me and my girls (three generations) are still loving them -- how many groups can say that!!"
+10675,1,Midwest Cook found ingredients to spicy,"I guess I didn't think bold would be hot and spicy in every recipe, I cook a lot and love fresh vegies and grilling recipes, I have a vast variety of ingredients in my cabinets but could not conjure up enough for even one of these in this book. Too much work, really a disappointing selection. I will stick to Martha Stewart and Susan Branch, more my style."
+10676,2,from the school of giallo,"British horror movie, wearing its influences of classic Italien horror masters as Argento and Bava, 'Only Darkness' also throws in aspects of classic 60s British cult TV to boot. The result is an eclectic and interesting film about a horror writer who finds himself sheltering a mute girl, who may or may not be on the run from an axe-murderer. With great performances from Crispin Manson as the increasingly threatened writer, Nicole Streak as the mute girl, and Dave Mitchell as Manson's controversial agent, 'Only Darkness' is worth the time as the surprise conclusion is unexpected."

+10678,2,The Gator's Great,Worked great right out of the box! Best feature--spring loaded chain tighting (saves the fingers). Problem with cord/plug getting caught between the operating handles preventing full closure.
+10679,1,this film lacks the oxygen to make it a really good thriller,"This film has an intense premise and the thriller aspects of it should have a high pace, but the psychological torments just don't add up. Adrien Brody is superb and creepy as the Houdini killer. At times the film feels made-for-TV rather than a true portrayal of the horror of this drama. Henry (played by Brody) asks the female detective (played by Maura Tierney) is she knows what's it's like being clever. That seems to be the problem with this film - it tries to be clever rather than to follow the logistical progression of its own storyline."
+10680,1,Not A Good Read!,"I thought this book would have more depth. This book was shallow and there were too many changes and they were happening too fast and the book went through so many characters, it was ridiculous. After a while I didn't know who was who and I did not want to finish the book. Not a good book at all."
+10681,2,"wow, these reviews are retarded","seriously, these are the most retarded reviews ever. young liars is easily one of the most beautiful songs recorded in recent times. this album is worth having SOLELY based on the strength of this one song. if you listen to this band and you liked their full length album and you somehow haven't heard this song you should get it immediately. it's bizarre that none of these other reviewers even mentioned this. my only criticism of this album is that it doesn't list the full song lyrics."

+10683,2,Good to the last page,"I found this book to be maybe the best of Tracy thus far. To be honest, the first chapter threw me. It was a deep read at first, but once I read the historical notes and got deeper into the book, I was hooked. The ending was amazing and the similarities of the two main characters grew stronger and stronger as the book went on. The last chapter was amazing!!!! I definitley recommend this book and don't let the french intimidate you. It is a beautiful book with amazing description and intense historial references."
+10684,1,"Trouble, Trouble, Trouble","I received this for a gift. The first one the plastic container broke and the smoothie would spill out when you tried to take the pitcher off. Got a replacement thinking that the first one was the problem. We have had so many spills with the second one, tired of cleaning up the mess because the parts do not want to hold together.

+10687,2,Best Time Travel I've Ever Read,"I happened to pick this book up at the library and read it in one sitting. After returning the book, I went out and bought it. I just know I'll want to read it soon again, it's that funny, original, and poignant. Merry-death and Rolf, her outrageously handsome and sexy Viking, are an unforgettable couple. Sandra Hill writes stories that are witty, fast-paced, and totally entertaining. I've bought all of her books since picking up The Last Viking and highly recommend her work."
+10688,2,AWESOME,This is absolutley the best step by step book ever written. John Graden makes the world of martial arts school simple for anyone wishing to open one. This is a must read even for current and long time owners.
+10689,2,One of my all-time favorites!,"As other reviewers have said, this one keeps getting lent out and subsequently, purchased over and over. I came today for my 4th or 5th copy... I can't remember. Although fiction, I caught myself saying over and over ""Yeah, that could've happened""!"
+10690,2,Trip Hop At Its Finest,"Morcheeba took a big step forward with their second effort ""Big Calm"". If not for the sound that is very unique and pleasing to the ear, then for its ability to give the listener peace of mind through the often melotic tones. Even though the uptempo songs are some of the better ones, the slow, peaceful songs such as ""The Sea"" make this album what it is."
+10691,1,Huge Hole in Lloyd's Argument,"Elisabeth Lloyd and others love to cite the infrequency and unreliability of female orgasm as support for the hypothesis that female orgasm can have no evolutionary or biological importance, yet they don't seriously address the question of how constant their numbers are across cultures. Lloyd bases her arguments on studies from the U.K. and U.S. -- two of the most sexually-repressed cultures to have existed on this planet. This is a huge gap in the argument.Given what we know about how context-dependent female orgasm and female sexual response in general tend to be, to base species-wide conclusions on these two limited cultural groups is spurious. To simply state that only about 20% of women always or almost always have orgasm with coitus, as Lloyd does, without qualifying these data in terms of cultural context strikes this reader as being glaringly unscientific.Christopher Ryan, author of Sex at Dawn: The Prehistoric Origins of Modern Sexuality"
+10692,2,This album is amazing,"I love this album with every part of my body. I've had it since I was about 10 (when it came out), but i never really appreciated it until a couple of years ago. The melodies are soulful, and the grooves are spectacular. If I could give it more than 5 stars, I would."
+10693,1,Judgmental and arrogant,"The book itself has a few good points but John piper comes across extremely judgmental and arrogant. The first example of a ""wasted life"" is a couple who retired well that he read about in readers digest. I am sorry but I don't think John piper is god a can determine the state of someone's heart while reading about them. He is not an eloquent writer so it isn't that good of a read anyway."

+10697,2,Has Strengths and Weaknesses,"I agree with a previous review that stated that TP questions have been getting successively easier with each TP release. The Millennium Edition doesn't seem to break that trend. Not that that is necessarily a bad thing: it allows more of the family to have fun playing.The GOOD: New set of questions, nice playing board.The BAD: Card holder is too small and awkward. (Gimme back the box!)The UGLY: Pie wedges are translucent, making them tough to distinguish in low light.If the new questions were offered without the board, I'd give them 5 stars. As it is, I'd only recommend the Millennium Edition if you don't already have a previous release of the game, or you're in need of a fresh question set."

+10701,1,Product will die within a year or so,"I have owned two of this company's (iGo) chargers and both have died within about a year. Specifically, the charger will simply stop charging. When plugged in the blue light on the charger will come on and then immediately fade. The company was great about honoring the two-year warranty on the first charger, but the replacement died a year later. Unfortunately their warrant is from the date of the initial purchase, so if the replacement dies and the two years from initial purchase have passed you are out of luck. I don't know about you, but that simply doesn't sit well with me. If you warranty your product for two years, then the clock should start again when the product is replaced.Seriously consider purchasing a universal charger manufactured by a different company."
+10702,2,Favorite Litter,"I have a lot of pets and have tried many different litters, I always go back to Arm & Hammer. I think a lot of people think a good litter should mean that you don't have to clean the litter box as often, this is never going to happen. With regular scooping, this litter can remain odor free for up to 1 month. After that, I completely empty and bleach the boxes and start fresh. It clumps well and I like that it comes in a recyclable container, cardboard. I usually buy the multi-cat, but I really have not noticed a difference among the types."
+10703,2,Another great mystery!,"To the Hilt is worthy of the repertoire of Mr. Francis; the characters will be comfortably familiar to his regular readers, but new enough too, to maintain your interest. The protagonist, `Mad Alexander' is an instant favorite, and I hope that he'll be included in another story. The mystery itself is quite well done. For audiocassette fans, you will enjoy Tony Britton's reading, he is as usual magnificent."
+10704,2,"Wow, what a great experience!!!!!!","I ordered this product with great reservations as to if it would just be a waste of money and a big disappointment to my 6 year old son. Well, no need for those reservations! The butterflies come as small worms in a tightly sealed cup with food for them. They came the exact week that I specified that I wanted them shipped. You can actually watch them grow into big fat caterpillars. Then they go to the top of the cup and make cocoons just like the directions say. The top of the cup removes easily and is easily pinned to the side of the very sturdy pavillion. My son(as well as my husband and I) have ust loved this! It has been so neat to see all of the life cycles of the butterfly. All of my worms turned into butterflies!!!! We are getting ready to set them free but it sure has been neat. I am planning on ordering more larva and start over again!"

+10710,2,Fairy tales for adults,"MoonShadow is a rare find- a wildly fictional book that manages to identify with the reader. Its a coming-of-age story in a lewd, violent, funny, whimsical, tragic, even nostalgic universe. Its written as an autobiography of a fictional character. An honest retelling of his life as an intergalactic Huckleberry Finn. The artwork is painted, adding a sense of realism to the character. This gets my highest compliment: after finishing it I felt disappointment that Moonshadow was fiction."
+10711,2,My daughter loves this book!,"I love this book, too! My daughter and I enjoy reading this together before bedtime. We laugh together and give kisses to each other. What I love most is that I enjoy the time we share together because of this book. We have several of Karen Katz's books and enjoy them all. The illustrations are wonderful and colorful. But ""Counting Kisses"" is our favorite! I hope you enjoy your time with your children as much as I do because of this book."

I don't really use much hair product because my laziness far outweighs my desire to look presentable. The old formula was light but still super effective and took a whopping 2 seconds to force my hair into submission. The new(ish) formula is so light that I'm convinced, much like the emperor's new clothes, it only works if you believe in it. It's inspiring me to sell empty bottles to people and tell them it's a new super lightweight formula called ""Nuthing"" (you have to spell it that way otherwise no one will believe you). I won't be reordering this styling cream...I mean CREME."

+10716,1,No significant improvements over Money 2003.,"I had been using Money 2003 and decided to upgrade. There wasn't any pressing need, but upgrading once every four years isn't bad. I was hoping there were some significant additional features or improvement. I've been using it for approx a month and it doesn't appear that there were any.- They did allow customization of your home page, but it only allow 2 columns.- I didn't both using the new budget tool as I want to track more than just the essentials.One very annoying thing:When I uninstalled Money 2003, it broke my Money 2007 installation. Money 2007 complained that it couldn't find its registration.

+10718,2,Good realism,"I purchased this game because my late father actually flew Phantoms in Vietnam and participated in the Rolling Thunder campaign, and I wanted to ""share"" in his experiences. He also flew the F-100 for many years prior to the Vietnam conflict. The game runs great, and is pretty realistic. I would recommend it to any Vietnam-era combat enthusiasts."
+10719,1,"It's not ""Atonement""","I really like McEwan but was disappointed. I thought the novel was ""over-engineered"" and sounded forced. McEwan couldn't make me really care about Perowne. Instead of being introspective, he sounded just like a whiner to me. Sorry, but not as gripping as ""Atonement"" or even ""Amsterdam"". Nice idea... a whole story of one day. However, Joyce Carol Oates did a MUCH better job, IMHO, with ""What I Lived For"" which took place over a weekend. That novel moved!Overall, I was much more taken with Cormac McCarthy's latest.....""No Country for Old Men."" It was extremely introspective from the view of the old sheriff but it was EXCITING! A real page turner. ""Saturday"" can't stand up in comparison."
+10720,1,OH WELL,"I ordered this CD for a friend before I bought it. How sorry I did so. I may have to cancel the order and get something else. Stevie sings exactly the same song as last time? Why?? And most of the songs, although by different artists, are virtually identical to prior years' offerings. How sad that this is for charity. Perhaps the Special Olympics needs new people to choose the songs. Thank God the artists sing well."
+10721,2,Best One Yet!,"I think this is one of Ms. Rice's best books yet. I loved the Wyoming setting and the characters Jake and Sage. The Indian folklore thrown in was an added treat. To be honest, I was getting a little tired of the Connecticut shoreline and this fresh setting renewed my love for her stories. I think this book would be perfect for a sequel! I love books that make me cry and and that renew my faith in the power of love and family. A fabulous story!"

The handle falls off, it tips over because the center of gravity is too high, it doesn't roll so you end up dragging it, the sprayer cord always ends up tangled in the wheels, and the sprayer handpiece is too loose and rotates to an awkward spraying position. I didn't have a defective unit- I bought two and both were unusable. Do not buy this sprayer!"
+10723,1,I guess you HAD TO BE THERE,"I don't see anything new in this film, honestly. It's a little less than what I expected, and it's very cliche. I don't understand why people think because a film is indie, it has lower standards...or that the indie viewer has lower standards.As usual, you can tell that this film is full of amusing one-liners and inside jokes that the cast and crew may be aware of, but as the viewer, don't waste my time. If you ""had to be there"" to understand it, then save it for your home movies! I personally am insulted. This was a hack film."

Every cooking part including the ""Cast Brass"" burner is corroding such that the venturis no longer make contact with the burner, (an inch of tube has gone by way of rust; flames shot out and singed me eyebrows). Ah, but there is hope. The cabinet, top, and rollers are still good -- now if only I can buy a burner, venturis, an igniter, and drip pans, why hell, it'll be perfect.And the retailer? who sold it to me: told me to contact the manufacturer online.

+10727,2,"Considered The Definitive Book on Nazi Germany, Publ 1959/60, 1245 pp, 5 Stars","If you only could read and own one history book on Nazi Germany, this would be it. Don't let the 1245 pages daunt you, this is a very well written and readable book on the subject. Shirer was apparently a journalist and started research on the book when he first went to Germany in 1925. He spent 5-1/2 years writing it. The title pretty much explains it, it covers the rise of Adolf Hitler to the eventual fall of Berlin. There are other history books that cover specific aspects of the Nazi's, such as the recommended 2002 publication of Antony Beevor's The Fall of Berlin 1945, but this is the one history book on it all. Considering how the events covered set up the modern world, this should be essential reading for everyone on the planet."

I don't care how state of the art your video system is, NOTHING can help the quality (or lack thereof) of this DVD. The color, sharpness, contrast, brightness, the lack of widescreen format, everything about it just insults the whole concept of DVD's and I even rate this as a very poor copy even for a pirated VHS movie. Hopefully this film will be re-released in the correct way now that Bluray has entered the market.So as I said, buyer beware; YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!"
+10730,1,Needs some kind of answer verification,"The first few chapters are pretty straightforward. The problems are relatively comparable to the examples they give in the chapter. Once you get past part 1, the problems are not straightforward, and rely on special tricks or knowledge that could not be gained from the actual chapter. I believe this book would actually be useful if it gave final solutions to odd problems, or some other verification that you're understanding the problems/equations. The matlab functions served as a guide to testing your solutions for part 1, but once you get to part 2 the trouble becomes setting up the equations properly, not the calculus involved."

+10736,1,McDowell seems afraid to change the Star Wars Universe,"In the final book of the Black Fleet Crisis Trilogy,there are a few too many questions left unanswered. For example, the suspected Elomin spy in Shield of Lies never appears, or is given any thought to. And Senator Peramis never is caught, as if New Republic Intellegence forgot about him. Also, in most other trilogies, authors usually develop both a good guy and a bad guy. For example, Timothy Zahn introduces Mara Jade and Grand Admiral Thrawn. Kevin J. Anderson introduces Admiral Daala and Kyp Durron. A.C. Crespin has Teroenza and Brea. But who does McDowell have? Nil Spaar and who? Tarrick and Alole? Everyone else has been introduced well before the story was written."
+10737,1,A Flop,"Compared to other Sicilians, the Taimanov is relatively slow-developing, giving White few immediate targets. At the same time, it is a flexible system, and depending on the move order can readily transpose to the Scheveningen or Sveshnikov Sicilians. I had hoped for some detailed discussions of the concepts behind the opening, as well as explanation of move orders and transpositions. On both fronts I was disappointed. This book is skimpy in verbal explanations, and even the annotations and analysis are pretty bare-bones. There isn't a master index of variations. A major disappointment overall. If you're interested in the Taimanov, a better bet would be Graham Burgess' recent book. It's not that great on verbal explanations either, but gets top marks on the technical side."
+10738,1,I agree with the Nov. 1999 review,"I agree 100% on the Nov. 1999 review, except I'm sure they intended to rate this game 1, not 4. The first thing your told to do is find merlin, which I couldn't do. I read a walkthru on the internet that said you have to find wilf first before finding merlin, which I couldn't do either. I've played 100's of games, and usually I beat them all. In this case I hadn't accomplished anything more after many hours than I had after the first 10 minutes of the game. This game is so stupid I can't believe it. The hints are useless. There are no suggestions on what to do once you get stuck (which happens 5 minutes after you start). If you consider yourself intelligent, you'll have to downgrade your opinion of yourself if you buy this game."
+10739,2,This book is about...,I like this book because I like its' newspaper. It showed me how Lily Rosie and Tess put a newspaper together. It's a lot like the newsletter than Morgan and Julia and I write.
+10740,1,Not for grading,"I bought these to grade papers. However, the pencils mark so lightly and unreliably that they are unusable."
+10741,1,Good Deal?,"Whereas we like the product itself, I was surprised that the sticker still attached to it said $7.99 instead of the 9.99 we paid for it (without shipping). It is soft and adorable."
+10742,1,Pole Dance DVD Review,I purchased this dvd with the intentions of learning pole tricks. The video was a disappoint ment because it is really outdated and the pole instructionals aren't very clear. The video just wasn't appealing and it was boring. I plan on reselling.
+10743,2,one of the easiest to use,"Olympus d series digital cameras are very easy to use.The one i have takes pics reasonably quickly for a digital.It stops the action of a moving seen quite well, evendriving along in the car!Hint: Only use the lithium batteries, alkalines will notbe suitable for this camera even though it might bepackaged with them. With lithium i did just fine.The auto downloading usb works great. The camera issmall and light.It shows the pic you just took immediately on the lcd screen, abig plus for my peace of mind. I print up to 5x7 or 8x10on photo paper, looks very nice for a 2.1 pixel camera.You do not need to use the program or any program for that matter to download from this camera. All you need is the driver on the cd disk the first time and then its automatic from there."
+10744,1,"Annoying sound, Fun for short periods of time.","This toy makes the most annoying chirping/squeaking penguin sound when turned on. You can't turn the sound off. So it makes the annoyance factor of this toy very high.That aside, this toy consists of three little plastic penguins 'climb' a staircase, then slide down the slide and end up at the stairs again to repeat the process... over and over and over and over again. There are only so many times you can watch this before it gets old. Even kids get bored eventually. Mine has more fun just playing with the penguins separately. I am amazed none have gotten lost yet as they are only 2 inches tall if that.This toy doesn't have much going for it in my book. It isn't educational and it doesn't inspire much creative play, plus the annoying sounds it makes are enough to make one go batty. There isn't much you can do with it. The penguins are cute I guess, but I think you could find a better toy."

+10746,2,Just what would I do if there were Great Book Cults---,"Instead of Football? Admittedly, this is a librophile's dream world--full of the requisite 'sugar plusm dancing over our heads.' Still, Fforde's mystery is a fun read and a good first novel. There's plenty of gratuitous chuckles--such as Jack Schitt and more in-depth humor as well.Will I read more? Good question. I'd call this more an airplane--escape type book than my regular store of fiction. Wonder how much I'd annoy my seatmates in 'steerage' if I took Book 2 on my next flight and chuckled all the way???"
+10747,1,B & D SZ360 Scissors,"I ordered the item because it was cheaper to buy a new one compared with buying a battery for the old one. Luckily, I did not throw the old one away. When the new one arrived, I charged the battery the recommended time, and when I went to test it, NOTHING!. So I removed the battery from the new one and put it in the old one, SUCCESS!. After checking for loose, broken wires in the new one, I discovered that the motor in the new one was faulty, you had to manually spin the shaft to get the motor to run. So, now I have my old one with a new battery and an extra scissorhead if the old head gets dull."
+10748,1,"product is fine, communication wasn't","I ordered this item on October 5. It was supposed to have been delivered within the window on Oct. 10-18. I e-mailed e-toys twice and received no response. Finally, on October 25, it came in the mail, just in time for Halloween. I won't be using this seller again."
+10749,1,Dont buy,"One star is way too high. Your contacts, email, phone numbers stay on the service not the phone (actually a company called Danger runs the service for all the SK2 aka Hiptop2 carriers). Before buying look around the net at how many times the service is unavailable (we're talking days not minutes here) and what that means when you can't use your email/IM/web from the phone OR get to your information. Then ask about a Service Level Agreement before purchasing - when the carrier stops laughing you might get the feeling that this is not the best purchase if its going to be the only phone you carry."

+10751,2,Very good Tribebook!,"I've seen this book before (from a friend) and have used it once. My opinion on it is very positive- as most tribe or clan books, it helps develop the character with disiplins, rituals, and/or gifts. I highly recomend this and other books of it's type."
+10752,1,Horrible air mattress,"I didnt have much money and was sleeping on the floor so I decided to buy this air mattress. First night it lasted about an hour before I felt the floor, it was a bad call because now im broke and still on the floor. You definitely get what you pay for."
+10753,1,DVD - SPecial Version Review - Not a review of P&P,"After owning the original DVD version since it was released, Iwas ready for this release, no more annoying breaks every hourwith the same listing of actors. I really wanted to view theextras that were with this version. But what a waste of money,I now watch the original,. and the new one is collecting dust.The picture quality was/is horrible, all the colors washed outin the scenery and the faces/clothes of the actors. This is thelast DVD purchase I will make that comes from A&E Entertainment.What a shame, because I was a satisfed customer until now.BTW - The movie no matter the picture quality is awesome and well worth the money."
+10754,1,full of defects,"I actually bought two HP 17Bii+'s - one for home and the other for work. Funny thing is, I'm seeing completely different defects on each one. My work HP, for instance, has trouble with the #0 key - you really need to watch the repeater to make sure it's getting all the digits. My home HP? Already crashed dead - twice - requiring me to reset and lose all my formulas. Without the reliability, I can't recommend this product."
+10755,1,Looks better in the picture,"I could have made this. It's a piece of plywood with about 1 or 1-1/2"" of firm foam stuck to the front. Two triangular pieces of plywood are attached to the back to stand it up. Haven't tried hitting a ball against it, so I hope it stays up. I imagine it will move when hit with a fast moving ball, but I can't say for sure. Also, it's pretty small and lightweight compared to what I was expecting. Not worth what we paid for. I am giving it 2 stars instead of only 1 because I haven't actually used it yet."

+10757,1,Waste of money!!!,"I am very, very dissapointed with this breast pump, it takes me about an hour just to pump one side and I only used it once or twice a week. Also it's hard to clean, way too many parts, and milk always gets into the handle. I do not recomend it to any one!"
+10758,1,Disappointed,"I purchased this dvd on the basis of earlier reviews, but was extremely disappointed. If one expects the quality of HBO's Rome or Showtime's The Tudors, the expectation will be way too high. Calling it more a lower grade tv production (but still no match to BBC's I Claudius) is more correct. The length is tedious, the colour washed out, and the production sets only so-so. The acting is more difficult to judge, since the dialogue is in Polish, but I saw no performance of better than average. The English subtitles, like all subtitles, give only a synopsis of what is being said, and I found that many of them do not fit the screen. If the dvd were cheaper, perhaps it would be acceptable, but at this price I would recommend buying the old MGM version of Quo Vadis which is vastly more entertaining and better edited."
+10759,1,Terrible!!!! Do Not Buy!!,"Do not buy. This Gate is awful! Zero Stars! It did not come as pictured. The pressure fit knobs shown in the photo are instead flat plastic (which is useless) and the 'nuts' that would presumably keep the knobs in place are enormous. The problem? Once assembled, the doggie door does not close and the gate does not pressure fit in doorway. Completely useless."
+10760,2,The Best of Carmen Cavallaro CD,"This recently released double CD features some of the most enduring and beloved songs performed by the highly gifted and uniquely styled Carmen Cavallaro. Mr. Cavallaro delighted audiences the world over, appeared in movies and stage and will always be remembered for his seemingly unlimited talent bringing his classically trained background to the great popular tunes that thrilled millions for years."
+10761,2,Incandescent and savage film!,"The tension state and the indignation will involve you and all your senses with this unfair process when an innocent Joseph Condon and his father are blamed of a murder they did not commit .based on real facts and designed with superb artistic and art direction and a kinetic script , the film is simply ravishing . Emma Thompsom makes an unforgettable role and Daniel Day Lewis confirming his masterful magnetism and his charismatic presence , and showing his Academy Award was not a random fact .Jim Sheridan has made until now a real masterpiece ; and the Hollywood attitude with this film was another unforgiven mistake .But the time which is the supreme judge will put in order that unhappy decision . Remember for instance , Citizen Kane against The grapes of wrath , Dr. Strangelove against My fair Lady or the Judgemnent at Nuremberg to name just a few .A classic film!"

The iPod is terribly fragile, which is not very desirable in a product that's meant for use during activity.My second iPod just broke after falling off my bed and hitting the carpet. The first one broke after falling about [a few] feet from my pocket to the kitchen floor.It would seem to me if one was going to design a sleek product meant for active use, one might want to make it durabe enough to survive the inevitable accidents that will occur. Sure apple will replace it, but how many times would you want to return your iPod for a new one?So yes, its a great MP3 player,..."
+10763,1,The unbeliavable... Life of Pi,"This book is a hard to believe novel. It is not quite a thriller. It does not make you want to keep reading. It is quite dull. I am glad I read this book though. It is one of those books you couldve went without reading but glad that you did.It tells you about the Hindu, Muslim and Christian religion. it also tells you a lot about survival. I wouldnt recomment it for a free read but it should certanly be read."

+10765,1,do not waste your money,"at first, i loved this processor. it did a great job with the blade attachment. the grate on top was a useless feature, it did not evenly grate or chop things at all. the storage was awful though. very inconvenient. it is hard to put together. has to be very precise or it will not turn on. then, after about a dozen uses, the bottom rim of the bowl came completely detached, making the thing useless. i bought several new black and decker products for my kitchen and tools for my husband because i recognized the name and thought they would be quality. however, every one of them is junk and have been thrown away. don't waste your money."

+10769,2,not the first book for beginners,"Looks to be a good book, but hard to follow for a recent beginner. Playing casually for two months was not enough for me to get to the level that this book teaches at. Someone who has just started at Go should look to another book as an introduction."
+10770,2,I feel privileged to have worked on compiling this book.,"It was a privilege for me to work on compiling the text of LIFE EVERLASTING years ago. It is based on the collected writings of Dr. MacDonald-Bayne who gave a series of public lectures twice weekly over the years. Each lecture included the printed sheets of the topic being presented for the members to follow along. In this book there is concentrated spiritual knowledge that many spend a lifetime seeking. One has the feeling of ""coming home"" somehow, for what he teaches brings wholeness and peace to one's soul, not merely an intellectual exercise which ultimately might hinder one's advancement. Through his teachings one gains deeper understanding of the vast meaning of life, for truly we are only a part of the Whole. This book will add to your knowledge and ""Clear the Way"" to knowing a greater Presence."
+10771,1,STOP! a waste of time and money,"The only reason this gets 1 star is you can't give 0.It is poorly written, poorly executed and does not even make sense. It is obviously written by someone who has little if any experience writing anything much less a book. It has to be self published; there is NO publisher out there that would print this mish mash garble. The positive reviews are very suspect at best. If you read them they all have the same writing style, written by the same person?SAVE YOUR MONEY!!!!!"
+10772,1,Broke after a year!,"Unlike their famous mixers, this KitchenAid food processor isn't worth the money. It does not have all metal parts like the mixer and seems to be cheaply made.I used this 3-4 times a week on average for a year. The plastic part that holds the blade broke after a year (two weeks after the warranty expired) during normal use. I called KitchenAid and they gave me the name and phone number of a repair shop that repairs small KitchenAid appliances. It was the only shop in my area. I called the shop and they said they would charge me $60.00 just to look at it, plus the cost of repair and any parts that I needed! No thanks!KitchenAid needs to redesign this product and bring it up to the same standards as their mixer."
+10773,2,Amazing Book,"A truely amazing book by a truely amazing man. If you have lost a loved one or are afraid of dying, you should read this book. Thank you, Mr Anderson for sharing your insight."
+10774,1,"This is about the disc, not the movie.","Wow, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, the blu-ray experience, totally sucked. After fast-forwarding through the Wizard of Oz advertainment (nothing against TWOO, mind you) four times, no combination of 'maximum Experience' options would actually play the movie w/o Rupert Grint popping in, picture-in-picture, followed shortly by special effects options and a special section from the director about the Millenium Bridge. This is fine on a rainy Saturday afternoon when I've seen it 6 times already, but I really miss just inserting the disc and watching the movie.AARGH!This is only the 2-disc edition; perhaps if I'd sprung for the 3-disc edition there'd be one disc that just worked.(If you were hoping for a movie review, I apologize; when I get one that actually plays the movie w/o the bonus distraction layer, I'll try to come up with something.)"
+10775,1,Simply anti-communist,"I read this book and I felt dissapointed. The author (who I later discovered is a well-known anti-communist in America) simply shows a serie of notes and documents that, according to him, say how ruthless Lenin was. I am sayin ""according to him"" because sometimes he dare to guess what those notes say, even when you can't possibly read them (some are illegible). The book has a total lack of impartiality and it reminds me to those books by Dmitri Volkogonov, whose hate against communism blinds him from doing a good and impartial book. My opinion is that if you want to read a good book on a political personality (or on any other theme) try to find an author that has no direct implication in the story (like Volkogonov) or that has not a blinding hate to the topic (like Pipes)."
+10776,1,"Non standard recording, & can't be played on your computer","While I love Don McLean, it is unfortunate that this recording was done by BGO Records. They are trying to stop you from making/distributing MP3 files of their music by recording it in a non-standard format. You're not getting redbook audio on this CD. You can't play this CD on your computer. Further, they don't tell you this anywhere in the packaging. I have returned this CD and will not buy ANY music produced by BGO until such time as they get their act together, and give me what I'm paying for."

+10778,2,Great,"Love Holly Madison & missed this show when it was on TV. So glad I found the DVD's and was able to purchase them grom a great seller with a good price. Have loved watching every episode of Holly's World! Wish the show was still on, especially now that she's pregnant!"
+10779,1,I regret wasting so much time reading this huge book,"I wanted to like this book. As I began, I felt the book could have used some editing, too many repeated phrases, too many unnecessary details (why did she put the dog in the sink?) After about 300 pages the lack of editing and the unbelievable coincidences became annoying, but I continued to read it, thinking there would be a payoff at the end. There was not. I never did figure out what ""The Eight"" was, and the breathless sex scenes and characters forever burying their faces in each others hair, shoulders, neck, etc. was intolerable. The plot had promise, but the execution was very flawed. A good editor could have cut this book in half and made it better."

+10782,2,Absolute Best Anatomy Text,"This is by far the greatest most comprehensive anatomy text available. Catches all the errors and inconsistencies between Grant's dissector and Netter's, and is an indispensable tool alongside an Atlas (like Grey's or Netters) for learning medical anatomy. A must."
+10783,2,Totally Satisfied,"I found this cover to be a beautiful, heavy duty, great fitting addition to my grill. It is easy to remove and replace. We have had strong winds since I purchased it and it remained perfectly in place. I agree with the other 5 star ratings that convinced me to choose this one from Amazon.com."
+10784,1,Dangerous side effects,"My doctor gave me Thorne Profusia-SR to improve my circulation and, though I felt good for about two hours after taking Profusia-SR, it began a series of scary nighttime heart and breathing episodes that nearly had me in the ER! My pulse and O2 saturation were jumping all over the place. I had many palpitations and felt more weak and tired than ever! Then when I stopped the Profusia-SR, the symptoms continued for another couple of nights. I will never take it again!! People with any prior heart issues beware!!"
+10785,2,A review by a not-so-jazzy-person,"I am only a young raging teen at the feeble age of 13, and my style of music is usually melodic metal and reggae, and i have only just begun to explore the world of jazz, so don't expect the best review in the world.In my point of view i think this is great stuff to chill by, it ranges from the bluesy ""Oh I see"" to the 12 minute epic ""New Amsterdam"". Lovano and Schofield both interlap each others solos and are both great performers and love the spolight. Holland and Foster are very solid players, and back up the guitars and sax very well.All in all, four very experienced pioneers of jazz put together make a very soulful CD."
+10786,1,dissapointing recording,Good performance but terible audio quality makes this CD hard to sit through.
+10787,2,An excellent resource,"Perhaps the best feature of this book is the fact that it is structured as one large outline. This makes the material extremely easy to follow. It also allows for individual subjects to be accessed easily. For example, if one is looking for information on ""The Nature of God"" (an important topic when dealing with the LDS), they will have little trouble finding the information because the book has a format that is user-friendly.If you enjoy ""doing"" counter-cult apologetics, I cannot think of any resource I would give a higher recommendation to than this one. It has the three key features everyone should look for...1) an easy to follow format; 2) an objective presentation of the particular false teaching being discussed; and 3) a solid, Biblically-based refutation that can be appreciated by the Pastor, as well as the layman."
+10788,1,ouch!!!,"1. pretty2. good sound quality3. good if you sit quietly at your computer and don't move your head.4. if you move your head at all, bend over, go for a walk, etc. the bud will swing away from your ear and possibly fall off. not good."
+10789,1,Yuck! Smelly!,"I thought I was buying the one that did not reak. Guess I was wrong. The heat is okay, but Not great and power is reduced from the massager when it is on. I even tried putting the Arm & Hammer Baking Soda box by it for a few days and it still smells. The smell clung to my pajamas--when I went to bed I could smell it...like a skunk....yuck"
+10790,1,Not worth $30.00,"These sheets wrinkled terribly after drying, faded and faded unevenly, the worst part were due to the patterned knit they were rough and had little tiny knots all over the surface. They were not worth the $30.00, but on a positive note they came with four pillow cases!"
+10791,1,Only received 1 NOT a 12-pack,False advertising.. I only received 1 and it clearly states in at least 3 places on my screen that its a 12-pack.. This is a serious problem for me and my customers.. Thanks for lying!
+10792,2,It does what it is supposed to do,"I use it with a Cannondale Mixte on a Hollywood Rack. Have taken a couple long (800 mile) trips with no issues.My only concern with this type of design is that the bike is essentially hanging by the handlebars and the bicycle seat. Make sure your seat and shaft is tight - you don't want it to pop off if you hit a big bump. This has not been an issue for me, but I worry about it."
+10793,2,Charge your IPod anywhere you go.,This is ideal for vacations. No need for an IHome or computer to charge your IPod. It works great for travel as well as at home.
+10794,2,Great CD by a great Peruvian guitarist,"The only reason this CD does not rate five stars is because the sound quality is not as great as it could be, but this is because Raul Garcia recorded this album in 1988 in a Swiss church. Still, it is an enjoyable CD to listen to and several of the cuts here are unavailable elsewhere. For those of you who admire Raul Garcia's superb guitar arrangements, try to find his latest CD called ""Guitarra del Peru."" It was recorded in Miami, Florida, and contains new and improved interpretations of songs that appear on this CD, as well as two tracks that are just unbelievable: ""Espinas Punzantes"" and a three-guitar arrangement for the Peruvian huayno ""Ramis."" Any one of these two discs are worth their price, and it is so gratifying that people hear and appreciate Peruvian music through this great guitarist."
+10795,2,Long Time Coming,"Like countless other skaters who grew up in the 80's and early 90's, this CD holds a special importance. It happens quite a bit in pop culture. Somehow elements align, as esoteric as they are, and a true phenomena permeates thru a group of people whether they know each other or not, and a period of time is forever frozen, documented and marvelled over. The quality on this CD isn't very good, the instrumentation is ok, the music is scattered, but something wonderful is there. I searched for Milk for a solid 4 years and never found it. I know many others who have too. Now we have it, and it feels as good as when it rolled along in the legendary skate video, Blinds' "" Video Days "". All is good once again."
+10796,1,There's no reason to get this game.,"This game is pretty boring. It's just like Crazy Taxi, just with the Simpsons as the cast. The game is just the same thing over and over again, you pick up passengers and drop them of at the designated area in the time limit you are given, so the game is to repeticious. I rarely play it anymore. The only thing I really liked were some of the silly things that the characters said, other than that, there's no reason to get this game."
+10797,2,"OTTO PREMINGER, OPUS 12","****1/2 1947. DAISY KENYON was based on Elizabeth Janeway'sDaisy Kenyonand produced and directed by Otto Preminger. Two men gravitate around Daisy Kenyon, an independent woman who begins to become tired of having to take care of the affective problems of her lovers. This superb film doesn't belong to the film noir genre but rather to the personal drama's even if one can consider that certain scenes at the end of the movie (the accident for instance) are filmed in a film noir manner. After the portraits of LauraLaura (Fox Film Noir)Hunt and Stella inFallen Angel (Fox Film Noir), here is another fascinating portrait of a woman who's got the gift to bewitch the men she meets but in DAISY KENYON, Otto Preminger describes for the first time the weaknesses of such a character. Highly recommended."
+10798,1,Really Stunk!,"i got this and it was as thin as paper! and is really hard to clip on,looks really stupid, and the clip on the back is huge and clear and is really cheasy! i think it was like 5 bucks with shipping but still i trew it away in an hour and you probably will to or you probably will keep it but not use it! horrible product!"
+10799,2,Old Tunes Live On!,"This release is an absolute gem. Although all of the songs are familiar, I can't get them out of my mind. The CD rocks. ""The Walk"" is first rate and the less familiar Cliff Richard tune ""Don't Talk to Him"" is just great. Rock music has a tendency to either throw great songs away or to insist on listening to ""the original artist/recording"" etc. This disc says loud and clear that there is more to rock than that."
+10800,2,Classy and Quality,I bought this for use at Thanksgiving when my family of about 20 gets together at my house. These worked perfectly for what I needed them for - which was serving large amounts of dishes and keeping them warm while I pull other things out of the oven and set the table. They look really nice as well. They are high quality/heavy duty and the set looks nice on the table together. I bought 2 other serving dishes that also match this set. I definitely recommend them.
+10801,2,The best CD ever made,I just want to say that this is the best CD ever made and if you don't have it then buy it right away.
+10802,1,Noisiest razor ever,"This thing is loud, really loud. I did realize how quite my old Norelco rotary razor was until I turned on the Remington. The noise is only the first problem. The trimmer button is so poorly placed that your thumb accidentally hits it while shaving. Speaking of shaving, this unit falls short in that department also. I found myself going back to my old safety razor to touch up areas the Remington could not handle. After using this thing for a week I put it in the box and ordered new heads for my Norelco."
+10803,1,Nice color but old stock,"I gave this two stars for the timely delivery and packaging. However, this lipstick from estee lauder was old stock. I own other EL lippys but this one definitly smelt like cosmetic way past its prime. Not worth $$ returning. threw this out. Sad, nice color."
+10804,1,Not for small pills,I chose this for use with a cat. The pills have been cut in half and this tube was too big to handle the pill. Not to be used with any small pills. You would have to have Horse pills with this pill dispenser.
+10805,2,A great early performance from The Police!,"This is a fantastic early live show from one of the best live acts ever, and it's obvious that the bands chemistry was there early on. The boys sound great! The only negative is the short set list.(At this point,The Police had only released one album.) One point of interest here, is that the band plays ""Message In A Bottle"" for the 1st time ever in public. Sting calls it ""A sort of babtism"". Picture and sound quality are top notch. If you are any kind of Police or Sting Fan, you'll want to pick this one up as soon as it becomes available. I was lucky enough to get a hold of the Japanese version, which has already been released. Enjoy the show!"
+10806,1,"'ultra thin' mousepad, moves too much","Sadly, this mousepad moves around beneath my mouse/hand too much. I can't recommend it.Typical mouse pads are a few milimeters thick foam, and the weight and texture of the foam keeps it stationary. This mouse pad is a thin sheet of hard plastic. It's about as thick as a few sheets of paper. The backing does have a 'tacky' surface that's supposed to keep it in one spot. Sadly, it doesn't work too well for me on a flat wood desk. Perhaps it would work better on something ultra-smooth like glass. Perhaps not. I prefer regular foamy mouse pads, even if they have one of these hard-pastic top layers."
+10807,1,Broken and in shop for months,"I'm sad to say that I am NOT satisfied with this purchase. The vacuum worked for approximately three weeks and then had an electrical short in the power control after very minimal use. I called Hoover and they had me take it to an authorized Hoover repair center. It has been there for two months already and I am still waiting to get it back. The repair center claims they are still waiting for Hoover to send the repair parts.I did like the lightweight operation of the vacuum. I did NOT like how small the dirt canister was.In hindsight, I really wish that I had paid the money to purchase a second Dyson. We've had a Dyson for 5+ years and it sucks up dirt and animal hair like it's nobody's business. I wanted a second machine for the lower level of our house and thought I'd try a less expensive unit. In my opinion, I got what I paid for: a piece of junk. Very disappointed."
+10808,1,vacuum cleaner attachment,you have to hold it on the vacuum hose because it does not fit snug if you don't hold it it will fall off. Go to a vacuum repair place I am sure the have the right one.
+10809,2,"An excellent ""how-to"" for independent investors.","This is a great book for individuals who think they are ready to break away from reliance on the big brokerage houses. Mr. Siris gives detailed advice on how to effectively use the internet to gather the ""intelligence"" needed to make wise decisions. The book also contains a variety of tips for both the technical and value investor. Overall, I found this book to be very enlightening."
+10810,1,Poor customer support,"This software has many problems, to many to list. The most difficult part is the lack of direct customer support, only through email, and the company is very slow to respond. The fonts and graphics are very childlike and do not look as professional as I would have liked. There are better products out there."
+10811,2,Excellent book! Great to have..helps out alot of things~!!,"To all of you women and teens..This book is absoultely the best women health book I myself has ever read. This book has great things involving childbirth,pregnancy,sexually transmittes diseases, basic problems and answers to questions women would like to know. It also has great answers following them. I read this book and it is great! If you wanted to get a great book for women on all kinds of questions and health care buy this book!! There are many intersting chapters with things that I recently read and didn't even know exsisted! This book would make a good present for a teenager or just a book that would be very handy to have yourself!"
+10812,2,The King is back.,"Since I'm a Stephen King fan, I couldn't wait to start this new book. It was a page turner, but still not as good as ""Insommnia"". King is on the right track now; give us the spooky scary stuff & a little romance wasn't bad. I still think that Mr King should take his time with his work and not pound out books (the like author in this tale). True King fans will wait in anticipation for whatever and whenever he writes."
+10813,1,The ferrets like them but it has an unfortunate effect on their digestion.,"My ferrets enjoyed these and ate them greedily. So much so that they all got explosive diarrhea. At first, I attributed this to my allowing them to eat four or five treats at the same time, so I started feeding them the treats one at a time. This helped some but still caused loose stools. Since I had five ferrets at the time (one has since passed away), and they all demonstrated the same effect, I doubt it is specific to individuals."
+10814,1,Save your money!,"The vehicle mode is cool, but the robot mode is slag (term used from the original transformers series - means ""junk""). Not very durable at all. My advice would be to skip this one. There are plenty of new Armada toys for 2003. All of which are cool."
+10815,1,Awkward & undependable,"After a convoluted set-up, this unit continued to be hassle with constantly dropped signals. Eventually the WGR614 became a waypoint between the modem and my laptop which was connected with a 20' cable back to the router. Lucky I had the cable or else I would have continued to lose work! For multiple laptops and a powerful signal spend $20 more and buy a Linksys. Sorry Netgear."
+10816,1,"Very, very bad-not worth anyone's time","This movie is extremely bad-a complete waste of time. I think Jack is great, but this movie is horrible and is not at all related to the book."
+10817,1,not too good,"I have this version and it's almost watchable. SPOILER ALERT::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::SPOILER ALERT::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::Not like I'm really spoiling anything, but I thought this movie really went downhill when Sammo died, and it wasn't too good when he was in it."
+10818,1,Don't Buy!!!!!,"If I could have I would have given this product no stars. Here is why. My 9 year old received this toy for an early Christmas present. We thought they were fine. He had played with them for quit a while (10-15 min.)then asked his Aunt what the guys were doing. She told him to ask me and what did I see. Two stick figures one grabbing the other ones privite area. Hans was the instigator no matter who we hooked him up with. Once it happed it happed more often. In my house this is unacceptable. The toy is rated 8+ why is it okay for an 8 year old to be exposed to this behavior, let alone in a toy. We called the company, and told them of this action. They were not suprised, they said that this ""qurky"" action (sexual content) is in all of them. I highly recommend you to not buy this toy. Unless you think it is okay for children to be exposed to sexual content at the age for 8."
+10819,2,"Take a Leap of Faith , Don't Miss Emitt Rhodes !","If you're reading this review then you've either heard of or stumbled on to one of the great albums ever. Yes he sounds like Paul and he plays all the instruments but really who cares, the fact is you won't be able to get his songs out of your mind once you hear them. Don't know why he stopped making albums but this album is classic, you can buy the import ""Emitt Rhodes Best Of Dunhill Years"" which includes all of this first solo album and cuts from his 2nd and 3rd albums, that's the way to go. Then you can seek out his early cuts with the Merry Go Round which I found on .... It's all great timeless music (which holds up much better then Paul's solo stuff) you won't want to remove from your cd player. If you've never heard this then take a leap of faith and go for it now, you won't be disappointed."
+10820,2,Very Good Techno/trance Mix... gives me goosebumps!!,This is a hot dance track to get hopping to in the clubs. :o) very good.. I'd totaly recommend it.
+10821,1,Leaks And No Customer Support,"We are now using our second 4 cup Mr Coffee. The first one lasted a little over a year and started leaking from the bottom; had rust, etc. Bought this one about two months ago and it began leaking after only about two weeks. It doesn't leak from the bottom; it has what appears to be a design flaw in that it leaks around the top of the basket 'housing' and onto the burner/warmer and then onto our countertop. I sent an email to Mr Coffee 'nonsupport' concerning the first unit. No reply. Then I sent another about the present unit about two weeks ago. No reply. This is our last Mr Coffee product."
+10822,1,A DISAPPOINTMENT,This cd is not like the first one.I only like ''LARGER THAN LIFE'' and ''I WANT IT THAT WAY''.That's why I gave it two stars.My favorite Backstreet boy is Nick.I hate all the others.
+10823,1,Nightmare of a movie!,"Not only is this bad it is sleep inducing!You won't be afraid to fall asleep you have trouble staying awake. To all these so called movie company's please: Stop making remakes with worse actors Teen silliness that is more 90's than any other decade! This movie is 1)Not scary!)2)Has little violence and no campyness, nudity or fun! 3) Freddie is played in a dull boring way with Cristian Bale's Batman gargle as a voice! 4) This movie doesn't pay homage to the original or hold a little candle to it. Making it was a mistake but they did it anyway to make money from the name!I can't believe Micheal Bay put his name on this but I'm not a big fan of his credibility(He got help from Spielberg I'm sure with Transformers)Anyway the horror films from Dimension Extreme, France and Japan as well as independent film makers from the US., that don't make the theater are far better!"
+10824,1,Junk Cables,"I purchased a few of these cables because they were so cheap and it's always handy to have a couple of these hdmi cables around. Well, only one of the cables actually worked. Two of them partially work with poor picture quality, noise, dropped sound, etc. One flat out doesn't work at all. So for 10 bucks I ended up get a decent cable out of it, which is about what you'll get for a good one so you really shouldn't bother with buy this product."
+10825,2,The best hand cleaner I have ever used.,"My name is Dave Byrne, I am a local 11 roofer in chicago. I do all kinds of roofing and work with all kinds of material, I have been a roofer for 30 years and this product by far is the best. Thanks Joe!"
+10826,2,Steve Martin gives a shameful comedic performance,"I actually saw this movie thinking it was going to be funny (since it starred Steve Martin). Aren't I dumb?! As a mystery/thriller, it's very complexing and could have a dozen different meanings to it. That's the fun part; it's up to YOU to decide what the ending all means. It's YOUR time, now, buster! YOU've got the floor!Bruce Campbell Scott gives a quietly touching performance. Steve Martin's role is totally unfunny and he didn't make me laugh once (which is probably because he wasn't given a funny dialogue; it's the screenwriter's fault! Boo the screenwriter! Hooray for the director, though)."
+10827,2,Excellent service,"The product was recommended by a friend and it is outstanding. We ordered it and received it immediately. Excellent product and service. So good, we ordered another one!"
+10828,2,Beautiful!,"I would prefer a mix of air and surface angles rather than purely aerial, but the book lives up to its title. Photography is beautiful and the book is well made. It's almost 20 years old so an update would be nice!"
+10829,2,The Best of its type -- a great gift,"I found this to be a truly great book. However, it took me a while to get to this point because, as soon as I got it home, my wife fell in love with it and I couldn't tear it away from her for a long time. The historical perspective combined with the ""love interest"" capability make it both fun to read and remarkably useful. It is a reference work to be be cherished and used for years.My small business is planning to give dozens as Christmas gifts to our clients."
+10830,1,Curve Swivel Holster,"This was a replacement for the holster I ordered directly from RIM and lost. This holster does not have the built-in channel to protect the trackball, and its ability to put the Blackberry in standby mode isn't as pronounced.The magnet holding the flap closed does not work very well, and I have already had the phone drop and end up with a chip on it.The RIM version is much better, and this version is now mothballed in favor of a rubberized skin."
+10831,1,Didn't do much for me,"While I had heard this oil was great for treating skin fungus, it didn't help at all that I could tell. The smell is ok, but a bit medicine-like."
+10832,1,Hello Frisco Hello,"This is a wonderful movie, I love this movie, if you like mucicals you've got to have this one. 1943, but its truly a classic. I saw it on T.V. and I just had to have it and you will too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
+10833,1,"""Intelligence Guys Are Us"" and Without Original Thought","Insightless read for even current civilian, military intelligence or academia. All of the authors are FORMER intelligence officials, and as the saying goes-even if you reshuffel a deck of card, the same cards, or in this case, the same thoughts will remain. This book speaks out for only one clear reform-new blood in the United States and Allied Nations Intelligence Services. Can the authors all say- ""original thought""? I think not."
+10834,1,CHEESY! C'MON!,"Augh! This game is so cheesy! 3 quarters of those other reviewers are 30-40 years old. Okay, let's face it, this game is kinda classic, but it's soooo not this generation. People who like RPGs should go new, to FF9, or 10. I'm sorry, this game is just...... out-dated.( : anonymous......"
+10835,1,A Strange Composition,"It is a puzzle to me that expert reviewers agree that this is a work to buy and enjoy. I found it bloated, unmusical, scatological, and preceded by a self-important introduction by the composer. The text is in English. After struggling to hear the work through, I was reminded of Tippett's ""The Ice Break"". Those who share my taste will give these two non-operas a wide berth."
+10836,1,CD will not install in windows seven,It could not be installed in windows 7 because the CD is too old. I could not use the CD in any of my computers in my office.
+10837,1,"If you're looking for a graphic novel, keep looking.","I'm sorry I was looking for something with a little more art. This isn't the first comic to cross over into novel form, too bad amazon shopers can't actually see the merchandise they are buying. The description of the book is a little ambiguous. It may be a well written book, but I was looking for graphic novels and this did mention that there were illustrators for the novel. I wish I knew that there would only be a few illustrated pages."
+10838,1,Boring.,"Very disappointed with this movie. Most of the reviews sounded promising. The movie sucked!!!! So after wasted $10, we decided to order Playboy Channel for $16 a month. Now thats adult Entertainment!!!"
+10839,1,easy to use but breaks,It was easy to use but it didn't work for that long before it broke. I bought 2 of them over a period of time and they each died.Not worth the money for something that doesn't work. i know how to care for them so it wasn't me that broke it.
+10840,1,The reviews are written by the author?!!,I am merely in the process of conducting a search;but the fact that the author has written the reviews himself (and refers to himself in the third person for one review)causes this marketer to not be interested in what he has to say. How ridiculous! Note: The review requires selecting a rating. I have not actually read the content which may be quite good.
+10841,1,Not for big dogs,My Pit Bulls loved this toy! It only lasted about 10 minutes then I heard a crunching sound. It no longer made the chimp sound and the batteries fell out through the damaged hole. This is not big dog tough!
+10842,1,Yawn,"I found A Ghost is Born extremely boring by comparison to Wilco's two previous albums Summer Teeth (great album) and Yankee Fox Trot (good album). If you don't own either of those albums, buy them instead of this one. You won't be sorry."
+10843,1,ATTN STUDIOS: YOU ARE LOSING MONEY WITH PAN AND SCAN!!!,"Who, I'd like to know, is the genius at the studio (Warner Bros?) who has decided to release many great movies in the dreaded pan and scan format on DVD? I own most of the Kubrick movies already on VHS and I waited sooo long to upgrade to DVD but what's the point. I'm not sure what Mr. Kubrick's intentions were but perhaps if he had seen all that DVD could provide not just the casual movie watcher but also the movie buff-- he most likely would have given people the option of deciding for themselves which format they would like to see. Many people feel as I do-- you would sell so much more. Incidently-- BONNIE and CLYDE was released in the pan and scan format then someone got wise and released it letterboxed-- I bought it immediately!!I GIVE EYES WIDE SHUT in its theatrical release formatting the FULL FIVE STARS. The DVD in its current form only gets a 2."
+10844,2,"Excellent, but want a model without the handle","I have a similar model, pretty much exactly the same but without the tray. If I had known this existed, I would have bought that one instead. The model I own is the only one the local corporate supplier had. What a great bag! I'm an Apprentice Electrician, and this fits everything I need except a pole. Nice smaller pockets for my Flash Drive to hold digital versions of books, study guides, and my Apprentice Hour logs, without fear of being damaged. You can easily reach anything in this bag, except for large items like a composition book (for notes) in the center, because the handle is in the way. I wish you could remove the handle, as I always use the bag with a rolling cart or the shoulder strap instead."
+10845,1,Quesadilla Maker - not worth the price or storage,I am very unhappy with the Quesadilla Maker. It is very messy and hard to clean. I can't believe the reviews that say it is easy to clean! The Quesadillas definitely do not taste like regular Quesadillas. They look and taste 'fried'. It is also bulky and just another appliance that takes a lot of storage space. I have used it about 3 times and am going to give it to Goodwill.
+10846,1,Very disappointing,"I have been a big fan of Iris Johansen's romantic suspense novels ever since I read 'And Then You Die'. I anxiously awaited the release of her newest story and found that I couldn't even finish it. The character Eve was annoying and rude and I found the other characters poorly developed. I recommend to any new readers to her work unhappy with this novel and want more romance and suspense, try some of her earlier novels such as Long After Midnight."
+10847,1,Jarhead --- A Waste of Time and Money,"This is the most deplorable and insulting book I've read in years. Swofford takes blatant negativism about the Corps and piles it higher and deeper with each succeeding page. He tops off the negative with wild sea stories about him and his fellow Marines. He would lead people to believe Marine encampments were nothing but mini versions of Sodom and Gomorrah's and others' questionable actions that stretch one's credulity. His sniveling and dissembling throughout the book is tedious.Even the title of his book, Jarhead, is an insult unless the Corps I served in for seven years has changed dramatically since my time. Marines do not fancy being called Jarheads as Swofford claims. So far as I know, it was always a derogatory term used by other branches of the service much as Marines calling sailors Swabbies or soldiers, Doggies.This book is a waste of money not only in my opinion, but that of several former Marines with whom I have discussed the matter."
+10848,1,Great Bedtime Gothic,"If you need help sleeping, this is the book to buy. I hoped it would get better, it did not. I like a book that I can't put down,this one was easy to ""put down"" parden the pun."
+10849,1,unstructured,"this book it's all over the place, it lacks structure, how are you suppose to follow the process of self hypnosis if there is no structure, this book should be re-edited."
+10850,2,ehhh,"Not the best. It's pretty funny but not necessarily a ""movie"" per se. More like a few episodes without commercials."
+10851,1,Nowhere as good as Starbucks Sumatra.,"Just bought a bag at a local Costco for only $16.59. The green oval label on top says ""Roasted from Certified Organic coffee beans."" I guess this is why it wasn't as flavorful as Starbucks (non-organic) Sumatra. It wasn't sour at all like blacksmithgirl claims. I guess her bag must have gone rancid. But it's too mild and too bitter for my taste. You get what you pay for. The worst part of waking up is this crap in your cup!"
+10852,2,Best of 2003,"It's early, but I'm confident that this book is going to be one of the best poetry releases of the year. Twenty-Seven Props is engaging, charming and a total mastery of language, full of lyrical banter and wit. I find myself returning to Donnelly's book again and again, speaking the lines aloud and marveling at their power and charm. Pick this book up, it's well worth it."
+10853,1,Scratched,It had more scratches than were admitted to in the description I read. I will order more cautiously in the future.
+10854,2,creative and original but slower than the last album,"This album deserves good revews but it doesn't have as much of the ""get up and rock"" sense as the last album. This change has some of the fans disappointed. Many of these fans started with the self titled album ""Sheryl Crow"" which was more upbeat than her usual work. This album contains songs ranging from slow to fast with much variety.Fans who started with the self titled album don't really recognize her work. She can be a loud jaming rock star to a slow mesmerizing singer. She's not punk rock star some think of to be. This album reflects Sheryl and if you don't like this then that would suggest that you're not a Sheryl Crow fan."
+10855,2,excellent dream pop - guaranteed favorite,"Pretty low profile band but a great set of songs, perfect summation of a sound. ""Your Street is Dark"" is the one dream-pop tune you would save if you only could save only one."
+10856,2,Yay ceramique!,"I'm not going to pretend I know a lot about these thermal goos, but I can say this was easy to apply, and that in in conjunction with a new heatsink dropped my running temperatures by 15 degrees.It -didn't- come with a spatula (boo!) or instructions (boo!) but I was able to look online and find all the things I needed (yay!)"
+10857,2,Good cheapo earbuds,"For around $35, these buds are a great deal. Once you find the right size plug and insert it into your ear canal for a good seal, you get a about as good sound quality - tight bass, clean treble - as you could expect for the price. Contrary to other reviewers, I found the ear loops to be a great help. The trick for me was to insert the plugs into my ear canal with the loop over my ear and the metal stem rotated forward almost parallel to the ground. Then once the plugs are in my ear I would rotate the stems backwards until they touched my ear. Works for me and I have pretty smallish ears. You can't just hang the earbuds off your ear and expect the plug to line up with your ear canal - you have to put them on in reverse."
+10858,1,ok,"I was shocked to see the high rating review this movie got from it's viewers. My overall feel of the movie is...it's boring. The plot had the potential to be good, I have seen almost all the utopian films out there and I had high hopes for this film. The acting is good, Christian Bale always gives a great performance but unfortunately the plot lacks.Overall it was an Ok movie but nothing I would watch again."
+10859,1,WTF!,"aiight ok 50 got shot nine times!!!! wtf i think he got shot in the vocal chord like geez. This garbage is horrible. What did he do to rap music!?! Ha ha im straight country cuz of this mofo. Don't buy this cd save your money this guy needs serious help! Of course i was readin the reviews and most of em make a good point. 50 got rich, he did stop trying! Your prolly one of those retards who'll buy it no matter what just to support a guy out there who got shot 9 times. Man he has it pretty bad... The amount of times he got shot at he has an equal # of cars, houses and million dollar bills. These rap artists are retards, they sit around talkin about how bad their life is... I DONT HAVE 9 CARS!?! He get a clue 50 you got it good... you guys never stop to think about us guys in the hood... we got it hard... i dont anymore though i admit it! get a clue retard!"
+10860,1,Will Fails Once Again....,"Ever since Old School there hasnt been a Will Ferrell movie I could claim I enjoyed. Stranger then fiction, Semi-Pro, and now Step Brothers are just not funny and painful to sit through. Will made me laugh on SNL and he is a very funny man. But the disappointment I continue to get from his films is never ending. Sorting through the reviews on here where people claim they laughed from beginning to end is unbelieveable. What movie were you watching? Do you think a 2x4 to your own face is funny? There is a scene or two that I could muster a giggle at but to have someone claim they saw this in the theatre 3 times and they now own it on DVD is frightening on so many levels. Stay away from Step Brothers unless you want to encourage someone you dislike immensely to watch it. Tell them you saw it 3x in the theatre and you loved it."
+10861,2,nice wide shoe,I have wide feet and the Venice is the perfect shoe for me. It is nice and wide through the toes and stable for walking LONG distances.
+10862,1,Waste of money,I bought 2 of these timers and within a month one stopped making any sound. The other is so quiet you have to be right next to it to hear it go off. Not worth buying.
+10863,1,not so much fun,"we got this as a christmas present and my 2, 3 and 4 year never really even played with it. I tried I really did because I love anything trains but to no avail then the peices started to come off and in the end it just ended up in a heap with the rest of the blocks."
+10864,2,The best telenovela I've ever seen,"This is the best telenovela I've ever seen. It's so realistic, the love story between two main charactesr is so beautiful (Lucia and Santiago).The acters, Laura Flores, Sergio Goyri, Rene Strickler did a really great job. I've seen many telenovelas and I didn't like all of them, cause some of them were bad, but this one is really good. If you like telenovelas, buy this one, you won't be sorry.Here is a short version of novela, that's the only bad thing about this DVD."
+10865,2,AN APT TITLE,"Soul cries is a very apt title in that it will touch your soul. You can feel yourself transported to the soul level, the core of your very being, as you relate to the words and sensations this book elicits inside. The author takes you on an intimate journey and you certainly know it when you are there. Keep the tissues handy - you're gonna need them."
+10866,2,Archer in Jeopardy,"If you're looking for a good old-fashioned mystery to read, you've picked the right book. Ross MacDonald has Lew Archer at his best with these three stories: The Doomsters, The Zebra-Striped Hearse, and The Instant Enemy."
+10867,1,Nice to look at but too small for practical use,"The watch is pretty. However, the alarm is inaudible. The date and day are so small that they are not readily readable.I really would like to return the watch. It was a Christmas present and so the normal return time had passed before my wife opened her present and got a chance to use it. She is recovering from back surgery and wasn't able to even open presents until after Jan 2."
+10868,1,Doesn't work!,"I saw the mixed reviews and had to give it a shot. Very disappointed!! I put the item it, it immediately sunk to the bottom and started to slightly dissolve or fizzle. That was it! After three days it still did not provide food. I had to keep feeding my beta during those days because it was quite obvious it was starving. After the third day i took it out and ran it under water and i never saw any fish particles of any kind. Have no idea what the fish was supposed to eat as there was nothing freeze dried inside of it. RIP OFF! I had the water ph and temperature perfect for this work. I would like to know from someone who used it with success what the process was like for them, as I still have the rest of them left."
+10869,1,"the worst season, by far","I loved Gilmore Girls, especially the first 3 seasons. This season just seemed to miss Amy Sherman Palladino and even Daniel Palladino. So much of the spark and great writing seemed to have disappeared. I hated instances such as the episode early in the season where Luke tells Lorelai they never really belonged together, that she belonged with someone like Christopher...that just flew in the face of him obviously having feelings for Lorelai going back to the first episodes of the show. Or later in the season when Luke's sister basically said (I don't know which episode that was, but I'm sure someone who has posted here does) she never thought Luke and Lorelai were right for each other, which went against what she had said in previous seasons. I couldn't quite figure out why Lorelai married Christopher. I'm surprised this season got so many 5 star reviews from people here."
+10870,2,Great Machine!,if you are looking for a great easy to learn serger....this is the machine- save time and make your items look store bought! Brother machines are the best!
+10871,2,Spell binding writing,"I have been a voracious reader for fifty plus years. I've probably read and re-read Old Fish Hawk twenty plus times over the last decade or so. The writing is so good you find yourself lost in the deep woods, can see the world through the eyes of that old boar, feel the frost on the air. When the spell finally ends you are left with a sense of longing for a simplier time, for the ability to always do the right thing, of admiration for an old uneducated man who has the ability to salvage his life and live his dream. This is without a doubt one of the best books I've ever read."
+10872,2,Excellent,The harmony of this recording is one of the best I've ever heard. A great album to put on at a party. I had this taped on cassette from vinyl and used it to test car stereos at the electronics store. Everyone always wanted to know who the artist was. A real crowd pleaser.
+10873,1,Confused,"Confused, disjointed. I could not get into the flow of this novel. Plot was way over the top and the cast of characters was endless and mindless. I certainly missed the point of the author."
+10874,1,"Oh no, this is not worth the time to grope through!","1.This book was written using the beta software. So, often, the screen-shots are different from your display! Very confusing.2.O gosh, the writers (publisher) seemed to have rushed through this book. Mr Cassel & Ms Palmer, give us book buyers a break! We buy with the intention to learn. Not to be left confused and disappointed.3.Honestly, I don't think this book is worth the papers it is printed on. Worst, if you can imagine the many hours unfortunate buyers will have to suffer to try to extract whatever value there is from this book!5. SAMS, please refrain from rushing out such books. One day, you will find that no one will buy your publications for their inferior quality.Sigh! :>("
+10875,1,There is more to it than this.,"If only getting a record deal were so easy. A lot of the info here works great in theory, but not in practice. I recommend something by somebody who actually works in the industry rather than just writes books about it."
+10876,1,SONY TV's = Overpriced Junk,"After only a few years of owning this TV, it started to get small blue ""blobs"" on the screen. Those smaller blue Blobs have now spread throughout the entire screen. It looks like something out of Orbit and totally ruins any picture you watch. Then I find out that Sony has been aware of this issue and that it has basically been going on with of their TVs (the loist of Models and years is very long)? I also don't like how I am reading that they are ignoring the issue. I used to only buy Sony. I have another Sony in my bedroom that is also having problems with the sound. I believe that Sony had gone from a top-quality TV manufaturer to absolute JUNK with a high price tag. Sony is now waay overated and overpriced. Your hard-earned money is better spent elsewhere. I am the one in my family who everyone calls to ask about Electronics (what to buy, technology questions, etc) and I have been telling everyone I know not to waste one penny on Sony anymore."
+10877,2,"And then your friends will say, that you look good today","Alien Ant Farm got stereotyped as the band that re-made ""Smooth Criminal"". Their sophomore effort, truANT, blows any stereotypes, as well as comparisons to the king of pop, and their first album out of the water and proves they have much melodic integrity. These songs are much better versed as far as funky, tasty, edgy, melodic pop rockin' music is concerned. Very original vocal melodies and harmonies combined with a variety of well-constructed guitar licks and drum work stand out and make this a great album. At about 51 seconds into the third track ""Quiet"", there is one of the best drum fills I've ever heard. Track 8, ""Goodbye"", has one of the most addictive choruses of all time. truANT, truTHAT!"
+10878,2,My 4 yr old loves it!,"My son just turned 4 and loves cars, trucks, planes and trains! He fell in love with Hot Wheels at age 1 and now loves this movie. I can't get him to move a bone while he is watching it. I am not sure that he completly understands it all but he loves it none the less."
+10879,2,Good Group Fun,"I brought this game to a New Years Eve party, and ten of us played it as two teams. We all thought the game was a lot of fun. Some of the questions were very easy to figure out, and some were very tough. We all thought it was a good mix of topics. We played twice, with each game taking about 45 minutes. I like the concept of no board, so you could actually play in a car, or any room in the house."
+10880,2,"Entertaining and illuminating, enjoyable, but not Faulkner","Heddle obviously draws from his knowledge of the physics academic community (and physics itself) to write this. This is to the good; one should write about things one knows about, and this allows one to convey the ring of truth (and allows the reader to actually learn something).His point of view is also clear, but not thrust annoyingly upon the reader (at least to my ear). (Unlike other authors who write in science-related fields whom I could point out.)There is good use of humor (I laughed out loud in places as well), insight into human behavior, etc.; so it's definitely worth a read.But in honesty, I wouldn't quite consider it highbrow/fine literature. (Perhaps one more go-around with an editor might have made a big difference.)"
+10881,2,Good stuff...,"This is a highly listenable, mainstream jazz outing, often swinging in a similar vein as Jeff's work with Ray Brown/Gene Harris, but without Gene's unmistakable drive. Although hugely enjoyable and I'm reluctant to critisize, it seemed to me that all players had something in reserve and if they could have just tweaked things up a notch this album would've been outstanding. Still a five star album though, that deserves to be better known."
+10882,1,A Disgrace to the programming community.,"I am currently enrolled in an assmebly language course in college, and this text book is a complete pile of trash. The author tries to make himself feel better, by talking his knowledge on a basis of expertise, when in fact, this is for beginners. He acts as though he is the god of ASM, and that his readers should look up to him. He jumps around all over the place, like he is high on acid. I failed my ASM course, and i will be taking it next semester, due to this pile of (...junk) you call a ""book"". I will drop this book off at the local trash can (...)."
+10883,2,A complete artist...,"A brilliant selection of the different styles Bruce has embraced during his career. A most under-rated American musician who is happy to do his own thing and continually experiment with different styles.This is my first review on Amazon although I have bought a tonne of stuff. I was absolutely stoked with this purchase hence this report. Bruce (and RCA?) has shied away from ripping us punters off with pre-recorded hits for the 'anthology' version. Most of his 'greatest hits' are previously unreleased versions. Most impressed. Fortunate Son into Comfortably Numb and back into Son...wow. The DVD version of this song from Spain with Roger Waters is fantastic too...Bruce's support musicians deserve equal acclaim. Doug Derryberry, JV Collier et al. are consumate musicians who obviously care less about commercial sales and success than musical abilty and genuine artistic self-expression and enjoyment.Brilliant - can't say much more than that...."
+10884,1,bunk,"Don't waste your time with this book. For 170 years now there hasn't been a scintilla of evidence found which substantiates any LDS claim that Christ visited the Americas or that any of the Book of Mormon peoples, cities, histories, etc ever happened or ever existed---except when it is being argued by LDS scholars. Please, please, will any Mormon please recommend even a single book, written by a non-Mormon archeologist or historian, which corroborates ANY Mormon claims concerning the pre-Columbian New World?"
+10885,2,Latest edition to a collection of non-stop jamming.....,"FIVE is the first Lenny Kravitz CD I've ever purchased and I have to say I'm thoroughly impressed. I can't vouch for those who listen to alternative rock sounds all the time, but as an R&B connoisseur Lenny Kravitz gets put in my heavy rotation pile along with D'Angelo and Maxwell. For me his music is a refreshing alternative to R&B while coming very close to the ""funk"" sounds I typically listen to. Again, this may not satisfy the avid rock music lover who is looking for something else. But his fusion of rock, funk, and hip-hoppish drum beats work for me. Last but not least - the man is so fine I just had to give him my money....."
+10886,1,What a disappointment !,"The product description of the item was quite specific :""eau de parfum"".What I received was ""eau de toilette"", which is not at all what I was looking for !Furthermore, the price for ""eau de toilette"" being far less than that of ""eau de parfum"", I consider to have been fooled and am very disappointed !"
+10887,1,Disappointed as well...,"I like the strength-to-weight ratio of titanium as well as the texture and look of titanium. So after reading a couple of favorable opinions about this product, I decided to purchase this titanium money-clip.After receiving the money-clip in the mail, I was very disappointed as the first reviewer was (Dec. 31, 2005). Considering the price - $25, I really expected better. Right out of the box, it doesn't look or feel like a high quality item.Looking at the Amazon picture, I expected the money-clip to be considerably larger than what it was in real life. The thinness of the metal makes for a flimsy clip... I was careful not to bend it out of shape, but I think that holding anything more than a couple dollar-bills could easily bend it out of shape.Certainly, considering the price, I am returning this item. I wouldn't recommend this item."
+10888,2,Best New Diet Book Out There,"I really enjoyed this program and am so glad that the author - whose work predates the Protein Power people, Sugar Busters, Carb Addicts, and the Zone - is finally getting her due.The best part of the program is that my skin has cleared up, my fibromyalgia is remarkedly improved and I no longer have bouts of insomnia..I lost 11 inches during the first two weeks and have managed to keep it off with her Fat Flush Kit - which is the most inexpensive way to get the carb controlling nutrients and liver supporting elements the author suggests.The recipes, by the way, are unsually tasty and I serve them to my family.I am a very satisifed customer and recommend that anybody doing those other programs, get on the Fat Flush bandwagon because this is the real deal and the next wave.Sheila Rose"
+10889,1,Dateline: The Eternal Edition,"The story is truely compelling and the book needed to be written, but would have been better if it followed the format of ""Skipping Christmas,"" a small, quick read.Instead, we have an edition of Dateline that just never ends. If you purchase this book, go into it with the understanding that every couple of pages is like hitting a commercial break. First, you read what you already know. Then, you get a quick promo of what is to come. The problem is the end never seems to come. I can almost imaging Stone Phillips shaking his head around saying, ""More on that, when we come back.""Sorry, Mr. Grisham, but this is your worst book. And, please realize that such a review comes from someone who owns all first edition hardcovers of previous books and I've taken into consideration ""A Painted House,"" a book I was unable to finish due to severe bordom."
+10890,1,It might just be the audiobook...,"But I'm feeling NO emotion from this. The narrator just makes it boring. Even so I thought I should feel something for the poor mouse, after all her boyfriend died. Honestly though? I hated Ragweed. I guess he was supposed to sound cool? It was just, for lack of a better word, stupid.I can't attach myself to any of the characters, I hate them all.The 'action' is bland, too.Avi does have a book or two that are worth while, just not this one."
+10891,1,worst nickolas cage movie ever.....,"i love watching cage perform,but why he took the role in this film i'll never understand.this is an all around depressing-what the hell movie.hated it!glad i didnt buy it,but truthfully....found it on the sidewalk.guess someone else found it useless as well.......crappola plus,thats why it got one star."
+10892,1,Pretty Boring!,"I read ""The Hostage"" first and thoroughly enjoyed it. From that positive experience, I decided that I should check out W.E.B. Griffin's books further. I just finished ""The Hunters"" and it was pretty boring and long winded. There was no action to be found and the whole book revolved around Castillo's crew running all around the world doing nothing. I'm not sure if I'll read any other W.E.B. Griffin books."
+10893,1,Poor Quality Player and Bad Customer Support,"I purchased the player as a gift needless to say after about a month of use the machine stopped working. MP3's would play for a short while and just freeze the machine. The switch would not power down the machine and I would have to remove the batteries in order to reset it.I have had nothing but several weeks of emails with customer support and have finally received a replacement. Only trouble is this replacement does not work at all. It does not even switch on.For those of you who may doubt the bad reviews here, I suggest you also look at ...the Better Business Bureau for some insightful customer frustrations"
+10894,1,Wasteof$$,Buyer beware. You'd be better off to Google revenge tips than wasting your money on this childish and hazardous nonsense since it certainly was prepared well before the age of CCTV and other scanning technologies. It also reeks of frat house pranks so the stuff in it is either just plain silly or will incriminate the revenger by going too far under the watchful eye of the CCTV.
+10895,2,a great cd that was made by a great artist.,I think that everyone should of heard the great Kurt Cobain and if you buy this cd you can. He was the greatest influnce from 1989-1993 his song smells like teen spirit was most inflenchel song of the decade. and his cd nevermind made top of the charts.
+10896,1,Fruit Saver? Save your money!,"I bought this product 8/03. It's now making it's way to the trash. Yes it is laud at first, but after a time the noise sort of blends in and you don't notice it. The Fruit Saver worked for about the first 9 months and has slowly gone downhill. Now it is blowing warm air. I believe the one major flaw in this product is that the fan is constantly running and never gets a break. Air is always brought in threw the bottom along with dust, grease and whatever from the kitchen. I used to unplug it, clean it out turn it over and vacuum the fan area to rid it of some of the dust that would collect. Thought I would pass this along this information from someone who has had this product for longer than 30 days. Certainly you could not be throwing the cost of the Fruit Saver plus running it for a year away in over ripe fruit!"
+10897,2,UNCONQUERED,GARY COOPER IN A DEMILLE COLOR FILM. A REAL BLAST FROM THE PAST AND A GOOD SUPPORTING CAST TOO.VERY PROMPT DELIVERY AND A GOOD PRICE TOO.
+10898,1,Prefer old style brush,The new style hand held hair dryers are not good for short hair. Curly or wavy short hair was styled easier with the smaller brush with stiffer bristles. The 1200-1500 watt dryers worked the best. I wish I could find one of the older models.
+10899,2,Begs for a sequel,"Excellent movie, although it takes a little dramatic license with the truth. (For example, the genesis of MS-DOS was quite different in real life. IBM approached Gates to buy BASIC, not an operating system. Gates referred IBM to Gary Kildall's CP/M for an OS; only when Kildall blew them off did Gates buy DOS and license it to IBM). Still, beautiful characterizations by Hall and Wyle, and outstanding performances by John Di Maggio and Joey Slotnick as Ballmer and Woz. A most entertaining vid, if not entirely accurate.I hope that TNT does a sequel about Andreesen, Barksdale, Clark, and Gates, featuring the rise of Netscape and the war with Microsoft."
+10900,2,Very good read,"I thought this book started off a bit slow. It took a while to build up the characters and the story. But when the story does launch, you've become so attached to the characters that anything that happens is so tense and nail biting. It became a real page turner. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone who loves a good heartfelt read."
+10901,2,Good for each baby,This cook book as good advice and ideas for making homemade baby food. Each time I had a baby I reviewed it. There's recipes from 4 months to 5 years+. Some are simple and some are gourmet.
+10902,2,Hucksters & Hexes,"Hucksters and Hexes is a practical hex-slingin' guide that no posse, marshal, and certainly huckster, should ever be without. The rules are simple, the descriptions are clear, and the hexes are numerous and varied. If you are a Deadlands player or marshal and you still don't have this book, buy it! I've been playing Deadlands for years, mostly as a Huckster, and this is the one book (besides the Player's Guide, of course) that I simply couldn't play without."
+10903,2,First of his I read and it's not the last,"I ordered this book based in part on the title. Anything with this much fun in a title had to live up to the name it was given. It definitely lived up to it! A bit of a mystery, and some drama, but all in the environs of humor. If you like a good tale laced with sarcasm and blatant wit and creativity, you'll get it here."
+10904,2,Excellent Blend,"This book is an excellent blend of factual information, ease of understanding, and philosophical insight for the beginning student of architecture. There are other books which offer more information and/or insight, but few which are as good for the uninitiated."
+10905,2,Great nutrition bar for low-carb dieters...pricey though,"The Atkin's Chocolate Peanut Butter bar is my favorite low-carb snack. It is big, sweet, goes great with coffee (decaf for you purists out there), and carries the typical nutritional advantages of a meal replacement bar.Unlike many other low-carb bars, this one is moist, though not gewy, sweet (but not sickly so, like so many low-fat high sugar bars), and filling.The one factor that brings this bar down is price. I can almost never find it at Walmart or Sam's Club in the economy-size boxes. Instead they are individually wrapped at about $2 each. In light of this, Amazon's deal is pretty good!Bottom-line: This is the ideal low-carb snack/meal replacement bar. However, when you see it sold in 15-count or 5-count boxes, by as many as you can!"
+10906,2,Amazing!,"You know who lead Toad. This is a near perfect album.When I re-discovered it, it was the perfect moment for me and the lyrics and emotion are profound. Thanks Glen!"
+10907,1,It appears he found the world to be quite boring...,"I have tried on several occasions to read this book. I have a problem with deliniating Duffy's style from his technique. Duffy's novel seems Proustian, but I'm not sure if his usage of long-winded and overly ruminative passages is his own style or a technique he intentionally employs to depict a trait he associates with philosophers. This aside, I thought the plotline of the novel was almost without significant incident which seemed remarkable to me since their respective biographies of Wittgenstein and Russell are fascinating. Wittgenstein and Russell were vibrant and tremendously interesting men, but this novel nearly succeeds in portraying them as stodgy and completely self-absorbed beings."

+10909,2,Helpful,"I would recommend this strategy guide for anyone who owns this game because it's difficult to achieve 100% completion without it. I found the guide to be very deep but easy to follow and helpful at getting through missions, collecting treasure, and defeating foes.Many pretty pictures too."
+10910,2,All Internet Marketers SHOULD HAVE THIS,Reverse Google Marketing is a must have for any internet marketer. Wendy Stevens simplifies and cracks open a whole new world of internet marketing. It is simplified enough that even a technologically challenged person like myself can do it! Anyone marketing on the internet should invest in this product wihout hesitation. It will transform their internet business literally overnight. Thanks Wendy.
+10911,2,The First Place Everyone Will Turn.,"This is, quite simply, the best single-volume ever produced about products liability. It is comprehensive in three ways: (1) it covers the full spectrum of issues; (2) not only does it cover doctrine in depth, but it also includes helpful discussion of history and theory; and (3) it is elaborately footnoted with citations to cases, law review articles, and other sources. David G. Owen is one of the leading scholars in products liability, and within this highly politicized area, he is a centrist. For all of these reasons, Owen's treatise is destined to become the first place that lawyers, judges, law students, and other scholars will turn for guidance about products liability law."
+10912,2,"Thumbs up,","Amazing imagination of Judge and colleagues and an extraordinary social critic that really turns your mood into laughs!Improved technical performance like draws, time sequences, etc."
+10913,2,best absorbing diapers!,I tried all the diapers that are out there BUT Huggies are the only ones i trust and love. I've used Huggies for both kids and wouldn't want it any other way. They stay dry with no leakage and they dont bulk up. Who could ask for a better diaper!
+10914,1,DM used to be very good,"I thought that DM key members were David Gahan and Martin Gore. Martin wrote it, Dave sang it. After listening to Exciter i think the key member was Alan Wilder, because DM began sound classic DM since 1983 - first album with Alan Wilder and their last great album was SOFAD - last album with Alan Wilder. It's pretty clear that the trademark DM sound was done by him. Just listen to his solo albums - under his project name RECOIL-especially album UNSOUND METHODS, it's real follow-up to SOFAD. THe problem of Exciter is that it lacks in production, has no memorable melodies (even ULTRA had some) - i mean music melodies, not vocal melodies. Those great synth melodies are gone. If you remove Gahan vocal, you will not recognize that this is DM, because music is ordinary and non DM, Wilder made it sound DM. Thanks"
+10915,1,Waste of money!!,"I tried this stuff because the idea of not having to shave as often seemed like a dream. With this product I will definitely have to keep dreaming because it didn't help at all!! I waited with it on for about 5 minutes and then went to rinse it off. My legs looked exactly as they had before I put it on. Some people have been saying that it burned them almost immediately but for me it was the opposite. I didn't feel anything! I would have gone 5 minutes more but I really didn't have the time. I ended up using the slickness it left on my legs after I washed it off to quickly shave with a razor like I normally would. Very disappointing!!! Please don't waste your money on this. On top of that, from what I can tell the bottle is already running out and I've only used it once. I guess I'll just use it as a sort of shaving cream so as not to completely waste my money....."
+10916,2,Awesome,This Kazoo just pelts out that funky kazoo noise. I can sing along with my favorite bands with this one.
+10917,2,Great but not right for me,"I love the brace, but it wasn't right for me. I am extremely athletic and muscular, so when the instructions were to measure the knee around the kneecap, I did. My problem is that my thigh and calf are larger than ""normal"" and I couldn't get the brace over my calf! I think it would be helpful to specify the calf, knee, AND thigh measurements where the brace will need to fit so users will know for sure they've got a proper fit. Otherwise, I hear it's a great brace!!! I ended up going with the ""one size fits most."""
+10918,2,Feels pretty good out of the box,"I bought these shoes because I wanted a decent quality shoe, but I also didn't want to pay an enormous sum. I paid $109, whereas the shoes are listed at $175 in the J and M catalogue. I only have to wear this type of shoe once or twice a week. At the same time, I wanted something that would be suitable for meetings with lawyers and courtroom testimony.I've had them for a very short period of time, but I'm pleased with them. They came quickly and were consistent with the advertisements and information about them. Though they are pretty stiff out of the box, they are not uncomfortable, which is a pleasant surprise. And they look great!"
+10919,2,I LOVE THIS STROLLER!!,"I originally bought this since I travel so much and I wanted a cheap, light, no-nonsense stroller for those times on the plane. Now, I use this stroller as my MAIN stroller - I love it! It is SO easy to maneuver, I can push one-handed and zip through all those aisles in the grocery store or mall. I can walk my dog and push the stroller one-handed. My son loves this stroller, even though there is no tray. Yes, it doesn't have all the bells & whistles - no basket, no cup holder, no tray, and the canopy is kindof a joke - my son just reaches up and pushes it away if I use it - plus it often pops off when I fold the stroller. Oh and speaking of folding the stroller, it takes 2 people and an act of God to close this darn thing! BUT - it's so light and small, I just pop it in the back of my car - folded up still! It is the perfect umbrella stroller! I use it over my Pliko P3 - and it was just 1/10 of the cost!!!"
+10920,1,Blah!,"I love a good chicklit book every once in awhile, so I was really excited to give Wedding Season a try. From the start, there are entirely too many characters with complicated, not-that-interesting stories, which had me constantly trying to figure out who was engaged/married to who, and understand the complications between characters and their significant others. I do not recommend anyone who believes in the institution of marriage to read this book, because the author obviously does not, and she tries to push this view on the reader as she draws out the story by throwing in several forgettable wedding scenes and ultimately ending the book with the main character suffering the consequences of her stubborn insecurities. Send ""Gabe"" my way and throw this book in the trash. Ultimately tiresome and frustrating, leaving me in disbelief, wondering ""Why in the world did I just waste my time on this?!?"""
+10921,2,Wow! superb product,Superb micro pinner. Easy to use and I am finding uses for this tool that I would never have imagined. Expensive but worth it.

+10924,1,the casual humdrum of death and male ego...yawn....,"Where are the intelligent and creative masses that yearn for expression other than the casual humdrum of death and male ego???...yawn.... Boring! This movie is made for unintelligent 19 year old boys who are filled with frustration, anger, and of course hormones. I may also add the few 40 year olds hiding out in the darkness of their dens while their wives and children are sleeping. Please....Please...Let's get creative without the use of ""Hos"" and extreme graphic ""violence."" Are male comic-book authors so dull in their senses? This movie was crap! May I restate ""was."" As it quickly faded to a distant hiccup of a memory... now it simply ""isn't."" Good Day Sir...I said Good Day! ;-D"
+10925,1,Gross,"This is almost exactly like eating warm, vanilla flavored tile grout. If you're looking for healthy oatmeal that's not too sweet, Nature's Path makes some really tasty ones that are comparable in price."
+10926,2,It has ON/OFF switch,"ON/Off switch was the reason why I picked this light.9 out of 10 similar lights don't have it and without ityou have to unplug it from USB just to turn it off.Works great for my needs, fair quality. Buy it."
+10927,1,Dull Writing,"This book lacks the charm of Tuesdays with Morrie. The writing is flat and the story is rather old. The author has reworked material from Its a Wonderful Life, so the idea in the book is not original. Perhaps when the author meets his maker he can explain to the five people he will meet why he wrote this book, since the reason is not present in the text."
+10928,1,Not microwave safe,"This is a fine product with one major exception. The mug I received is not microwave safe. I have another HoJo wide-based mug (cobalt blue) from a different vendor and it works fine in the microwave. However, the white mug has a major defect. When you reheat coffee in the microwave, the lower part of the handle gets too hot to even touch. This is not as advertised.Wide Bottom Ceramic Travel Coffee Travel 16 Oz."
+10929,1,Refurbished but not tested?,"I received the printer with a broken ink cartridge in the box, that should have been the first clue. Printer would not get past the set up returning an error about the ""scan lock"". Makes me wonder if they actually tested the printer before sending it back out again. If it hadn't been for the easy return policy I would have been very upset. Ended up buying a brand new Canon MP610 and had it up and running in a few minutes, very happy with it."
+10930,1,No Audio Selection for the Blu Ray,I could not find the audio set up for this Blu-Ray from the top menu. There should be a choice for an audio set up but there is not. I have never seen a blu ray disk without this feature. Can I return this item?
+10931,2,Raises important questions,"The book raises questions I never thought to ask. The contrast between the aims of Jesus the practicing Jew, and Paul the religious promoter to the gentiles, is good to be reminded of. Since we know that Jesus of Nazareth and Christ of the Nicene creed are rather different characters, it would not surprise me if the actual Paul is different from how church tradition sees him. However, Maccoby is not an academic historian, and his assertions are sparsely footnoted. I have learned that professional historians are not accepting of some (or many?) of Maccoby's conclusions regarding specific issues such as, the witness of the Ebionites, and Paul's status as a Pharisee (or not). Still, the main point of the book rings convincing, and the book is valuable to raise questions for further study of the historical Paul and Christian origins, which the reader can pursue through books from more trained historians."
+10932,1,Absolute TRASH!,"This is not music, this is garbage from a cultural hack if I have ever seen one.Britney, your 15 minutes are over- thankfully!"
+10933,1,Sigh...another product loaded with fake 5-star reviews,You can't trust reviews on Amazon anymore. You'll note most of the 5-star reviews for this product are written by 'people' who have only written one review ever. Try sorting reviews by lowest rating first for some honest feedback.
+10934,2,A BOOK NOT TO MISS,"You might not expect this to be so good but, if you like knowing about other cultures, this is wonderful, Very well written by a woman who spent much of her life there, it is captivating and thought-provoking. It reads like a novel."
+10935,1,Missed the mark,"Best Tracks: Pound of Prevention, Jenny and the Tower, Just The Way That It WasThis was my second purchase of a Vance Gilbert album. His voice and style still shine on this album, but it left me saying 'ehh'. It's not terrible, it's just not his best effort. It, for the most part, just didn't speak to me.Maybe it's just where I am, or where Vance was...Maybe 2 and a half stars"
+10936,2,Nice Item,Have had it for a week now. Very handy. Never knew how much my tire pressure varied on my car. Had several tires over-inflated. Appears to be very accurate based on pressure reading change after allowing small amounts of air out of each tire.
+10937,2,A perfect score and a great comeback for Deep Purple,"Every songs on this comeback album is good. Two great hits, Knocking on your backdoor and Perfect Strangers. The rest of the album is also great, you won't be dissapointed. A special mention for two tracks, ""Wasted sunsets"" and the very good ""Hungry Daze""A very good rock album from the fathers of Rock !"
+10938,2,"The best I have used, works exactly like they claim","Four cats..... and only one that would go to the bathroom just outside of the litter box. I always keep the litter box clean, She just didn't like sharing I guessed, so I tried two boxes then bigger boxes, then different kinds of boxes and different litters....no go either... this went on for about three years. I'd tried every other kind of cat litter out there to get her to use the box.Finally I started looking at reviews of Dr. Elseys, and tried it. I was shocked, IT WORKED LIKE MAGIC and no dust AND it controls odors better than most! I had almost given up. It's been nearly a year since she hasn't use a litter box and I think I have found my forever cat litter! I just wish I had found it earlier, it would have saved a lot of frustration.I highly recommend this product."
+10939,1,"Mislabeled, Really Child's Supplimental Survival Kit","As pointed out in other reviews, this product is mislabeled. It is really a 2 small children or 1 large pre-teen child supplemental survival kit. It is totally inadequate for 2 adults or teenagers, and might do in an emergency for 1 adult if generously supplemented.Basically, you would be buying this for the additional food and water.So, it is good only as a child's survival kit backup to a 3-4 person family survival kit.One task I had to perform was putting all the water vulnerable items in zip-loc quart and gallon bags to protect them against drenching rain."
+10940,2,Great Follow-Up to Pet Detective,"Silly in an entirely different way from Pet Detective, you'll still be holding your sides in laughter during this movie. Unforgettable scenes."
+10941,1,Don't Bother ordering,The video tape was totally unplayable. Voice lagged and was totally distorted in most of movie. Played one of my own tapes and it played fine. Bad product.
+10942,1,Break!,We've bought three of these and they always break. The screw between the base and the upright strips or something and it wobbles like a sailor after two pints of rum.Boo.
+10943,2,It's a shame this is the last book about the Montgomeries,This is the first book I read of the 4 and I was estatic to learn that there were 3 other books containing the brothers. Miles and Elizabeth were really fun to read about. Elizabeth's hate made this book even better to read. I was real sorry when the book ended. I wanted the story to go on forever so I cod keep reading! One fantastic book!
+10944,2,Hilarious!,"Another Meet The Parents movie, and this one is cruder, funnier, and better!The Buryns family consisting of Jack (Robert De Niro), Dina (Blythe Danner), Pam (Teri Polo), Little Jack, and Jinx (Mishka The Cat) head in their RV to meet the Fockers. Little do they know the horrors they are in for.While there Jack is sexualized by Rozz (Barbra Streisand), hurt in ""foottyball"" by Bernie (Dustin Hoffman) and his discoveries of what happens to his family, and there pesky pet dog.Jinx is brutally raped, Little Jack gets his fingers stuck to a rum bottle, drinks some, watches Scarface, and plays with ""Un-approved toys,"" Pam becomes pregnant, Dina becomes ""Fockerized,"" and their RV is wrecked.Later they are all arrested by an annoying cop (Tim Blake Nelson), and Bernie gets them out.Hilariously done, don't miss it!"
+10945,1,Don't waste your money,"I have tried 3 different lanterns. First would not even charge up and light up. Second charged overnight and last less than 10 minutes on time. Third was better, it lasted 15 minutes with an overnight charge. Useless piece of junk."
+10946,1,Just a huge printed checklist?,If you need a huge checklist and nothing else then this is the book for you. You won't really learn anything from this book and I guess that's not its intent.This is just a huge checklist that you get two copies of. What do I do when I need a third copy? It would be much better if I had an electronic copy of this rather than a book version. If you make copies they will look like crap and you may be breaking the law...wtf?Just make sure you know what your buying. I didn't.
+10947,1,Not for use with single speed or fixed gear,The previous comment is not true. I just bought this wheel. It is dished for a 7-speed cassette (hence 7s) not a single speed or fixed gear. I also received it poorly packed for shipment and beat up with a hole in the side.
+10948,2,LONG LASTING WONDERFUL PRODUCT ALL AROUND,"This Woodwick product is outstanding.Unlike any of the many other candles I have bought before, by way of store coupon or someones childs school funtion or bullied & dragged to parties, over the yrs. you know the ones, that claim their candles will not smoke your house up with black smoke & toxins, hours of burn time, lead free.This WOODWICK fresh delightful candle, last for hours & hours.When buying via the web, i was afraid of that overpowering sickly sweet manufactured putrid gagging vanilla smell. NO worries there! It has just the right amount of fragrance, The new wick is Amazingly soothing, love the high quality reusable jars with lid.By following the candle manufacturs wick instrctions I have had no smoke or sutt. You truly get what you pay for with this wonderful product. I give it 5 💜's"
+10949,2,Red Hot Chili Peppers and George Clinton...A Winning Combination,"Freaky Styley is a much improved CD from the debut,Red Hot Chili Peppersstill a very good CD. It improves especially upon every listen. I can't stress it enough.George Clinton helped craft one of the most overlooked and underrated CS in their discography, withOne Hot Minutebeing the most underrated.The CD is full of hits, Jungle Man, Freaky Styley, Blackeyed Blonde, The Brothers Cup, Lovin and Touchin, Catholic School Girls Rule.A magnificent release. Highly recommended."
+10950,2,Worth The Read,"This book is worth the read even if all you get out of it is how to get the message to Garcia. What a refreshing way to look at marketing -- from the standpoint of enhancing your company's natural brilliance rather than from a reactive ""what is the competition doing?"" posture. Now we are making a concerted effort to staff our company with ""Rowans."""
+10951,1,tales of the abyss,VERY DISAPPOINTED WITH THIS CD. I THOUGHT IT WAS A MUSIC CD IT IS NOT. NEWBURY COMICS WILL NOT TAKE IT BACK. BE CAREFUL BUYING FROM THEM. I WOULD GIVE THEM 0 STARS IN REVIEW.
+10952,1,Disappointed,"I used to own this bra years ago and I thought I remembered liking it. But now, the fit just isn't quite right. The wires bow out between my breast and with the cotton/spandex fabrication, I'm not supported or secure AT ALL!! The wires, however do hold me up but I need to be secure when I workout as well and not bouncing all over the place. I don't know If I got the right size; I ordered my bra size, but I can't remember if this brand ran small or larger. Overall I'm disappointed and I can't return it because I've already worked out in it. The color is FABULOUS though!"
+10953,2,Used but like new!,my daughter is using this book for her college class and she says it's like new; she loves it. Thank You Amazon.
+10954,2,A sports lovers adventure,"A Sports Lovers Fantasy!!!!!Honus and Me byDan GutmanThis is a book about a kid who loves sports.In this book he finds thathe has a magical he can go back in time and visit famous baseball players from that time.A exciting part in this book is when Hounus is playing in the world series.((As honus trooted in from his shortstop position at the end of the inning, he looked straight at me and patted his right shoulderwith his left hand.)) (( The signal.)) You will have to read the book to see what is going to happen.I think probally a boy who likes sports books would like this story.This book has fantasy,history, and many other subjects.It is a great mystery and pepole who like old baseball history would ike this book to.I would give this book a 4 out of 5. It is a short bookso if you need to do a book project it is very easy to read and a very fun book to read.This is my favorite book of all time and I would recomnd this book."
+10955,1,Very very disapointed!,Totally disappointing! I really expected more of this movie. I wouldn't recommend this for anyone! Really! Don't buy it. The movie is not good!
+10956,2,My all time favorite book,"I've never actually had a favorite book--until I read ""Divine Secrets..."" The characters are so well rounded and the author so very insightful. I found myself laughing and crying all at once throughout the story. The mother-daughter relationship was right on the mark. The Ya-Ya's coming to the rescue by helping the daughter understand her mother was right, also. Wells did a wonderful job and I look forward to future novels by her."
+10957,2,the Khan evolution,"This is probably the earliest work of theirs I own with Roy S Khan on vocals. While later offerings such as Ghost Opera and Black Halo are even stronger, this is a good solid cd by a great band. For any fan of progressives like Queensryche, Fates Warning, or european power metal such as Helloween, Gamma Ray.....you just cant go wrong with Kamelot. Easily one of the better bands I've run across in the last several years. When they found Khan, it put them in the elite."
+10958,1,Too Much Money for so Little a Book,"As a collector of Toy books I thought ""elements of Pop Ups"" should be in my collection.... save your money for the real books, even at the discounted price of $28 dollars I would do better tearing up much cheaper books and learning from them than from this. We that like the Pop ups are supposed to be brothers but this is an outrageous price for so little work."
+10959,2,"In one word, simply, ""Outstanding""",A lesson in History for all those who believe in humanity and the dignity of its being.
+10960,2,BEAUTIFUL TRIBUTE TO A MASTER CRAFTSMAN.,"To be honest, I haven't actually read this book yet. Since the previous reviewers/commentators have covered all the bases regarding this volume let me just say that GOWNS BY ADRIAN is a beautiful book with many lovely photos that have been lovingly reproduced (no dupey quality here!).My only regret - and the reason for the 4 star rating - is that the majority of the photos are of Adrian's ""modern time"" creations. I would have loved to have seen more data/pictures from his costume pictures. To be sure MARIE ANTOINETTE is hi-lighted -- but it would have been terrific to have seen his splendid gowns for the other costume epics he created while at MGM."
+10961,2,Nice arrangements,Very simple piano arrangements of music used in the stated Jane Austen novel videos. I was interested in the Italian Aria by Jeremy Sams from Persuasion & was glad it was included. These arrangements are a good foundation and may be expanded upon if one has the ability and interest to do so.
+10962,2,What more could you want?,"You got the perfect location,...girls, kick ... funny Jack Black, and some surf bums. Now what else could you possibly ask for in a movie? About a guy who takes the death of his friend way too seriously but in the end finds out what is really important. The whole time I was watching this I was just thinking in my head how jealous I was cuz I wanted to live like that. Anyone who likes a fun movie about having fun and learning how important your friends are, needs to see this."
+10963,1,Grand Theft Author,"As a highly trained professional traveler, I must recommend that no one purchase this book under any circumstance. The writer is out of touch with all modern thought. To visit these beautiful countries with your nose buried in one of his books is dangerous, thoughtless and rude. If travel information is vital, simply read Kotaku, one of the greatest blogs in the world.In summary, save your money for something valuable- like videogames, heroin and teen pregnancy."
+10964,1,Hallmark 4 pack,I don't know how Hallmark 4 Pack came to me for review as I don't own it and have never ordered it
+10965,1,walk away,A very shallow plot line overly involved with the Los Angeles geography and less involved with the characters. The book reads like a script for a TV show that didn't make it.
+10966,1,Returning travel guide,"If there was ever a travel guide that was boring, this has to be it. Most guides have some type of color in them as well as better maps. I could see the pages easily tearing or getting worn on a trip. Tons of reading, but unable to quickly find necessary information. We really need a DK Eyewitness Guide for Costa Rica, maybe the DK guides are not as comprehensive, but it sure is easy to find information quickly."
+10967,2,"Everyone wants to buy, but nobody wants to be sold.","It is often said that ""people buy people"" and Michale Bosworth's book ""Solution Selling"" explains why. Can you remember buying a big ticket item and not having to be ""closed"" on the deal? Well I can, and Solution Selling explains exactly how that happened. Michael Bosworth crystalizes the process that all great sales people use every day to become one of the 20% that make 80% of the sales. Once you have read this book, you will recognize ""Solution Selling"" techniques being used by the sales masters to effectively create relationships that close the sale. These techniques can be used to create win-win relationships in the workplace, or to make increased sales. I have benefitted greatly from reading this book and I say ""Don't let this one get away without reading it!"" Thanks Michael Bosworth for demystifying the sales process and letting us know why sales people are, and should be, the most highly paid people in the world."
+10968,1,Ok i Guess...,I own this compost Keeper and thats just what it is. it does NOT compost your scrap it merly holds it until you transport it to the compost pile. the odor elimenator charcole pads were very un-helpful because they did there job so well. you never know when mold is starting to form in there ( Which is regularly). this product is a waste of 60 dollars and could be easily substituted with a bucket.
+10969,1,minimally interesting,"This book was not as appealing to me as I thought it might be, while it contained good description and thoughtful poetically written material, it lacked writing that would hold a reader's attention. The most well written and most readable section of the book occurs as the Wang family is plagued by starvation and moves to the city so that they might still continue to survive. The Good Earth does contain themes that express the authors views on morality and humanity, and thus I consider it to be an important book, which should be read by all whom wish to do so. While it was not one of my favorite novels, I was able to learn much about the Chinese culture and way of life which is very interesting. The book contains important ideas, but these ideas have been overly expressed in written works of the past, so in general I would suggest that anyone interested in the themes and subjects should read this book."
+10970,1,"Looks pretty, functions ugly.","This product looks nice, and like many other reviewers have stated, it worked well for about 6 hours, then died. I have two of these machines, bought extra filters, used deionized water and when they stopped working tried everything to repair them, but to no avail. The company is not sympathetic and is difficult to contact. In trying to seek help, i researched many sites and found that this product is panned in every review. It seems to me unconscionable to continue making and selling a product with such obvious defect."
+10971,2,Love the clip art!!,"Tons of different images, fonts, and borders. It is very easy to use and the large book with all of the images in it is very handy."
+10972,1,HORRIBLE,"MADONNA IS THE WORST THING THAT EVER HAPPENED IN MUSIC WORLD.SHE IS TACKY, HAS NO TALENT.NOW THAT SHE'S A MOM,SHE SHOULD STAY HOME."
+10973,1,Out of date,"If you were to assume that this book would have some incorrect information since it was published this long ago you would still be disspointed. Not only are the prices still in francs but half of the resturants listed have moved, changed their prices drastically or simply no longer exist. This book might of been valuable when it was printed but no longer is. Don't waste your money."
+10974,2,The Best of the Best,An excellent book. Actually it was purchased for a friend. I enjoy anything that is written by Susan Polis Shultz.
+10975,2,In an Age of Information Thinking is Life!,"Norman Geisler and Ronald Brooks have written a fantastic textbook on how to think using Logic. They dare to focus on students within their own Christian faith, demonstrating that you can think and be Christian! Even with the faith based examples they refrain from preaching in any way, so this work is a great introduction to Logic for anyone who wants a taste of how to examine their thinking. The book is worth buying just to read the contrast it makes between inductive and deductive reasoning. I am glad to see this book still in print!"
+10976,2,Addicting!,"So well done! This is such a well-written and wonderfully performed story of an aristocratic, early 1900's, British family and the staff ""downstairs"" who serve them, and bring with them their own personal stories that add intrigue and authenticity. This series has such great characters in an amazing setting and with the most beautiful costumes. How could anyone, young or old, not love it?"
+10977,1,mastering pool review,"I bought this video thinking that it would give me some good practice ideas to improve my game. It doesn't do anything but show you what certain shots are called. The only good thing is the table runs he does at the end and that's only because you get an idea of how a pro runs the rack. Other than that, it was useless. Get Varner's DVD;s on how to practice pool to improve."
+10978,1,Cheap imitation knock-off of original product,"Buyer beware!! This product is not Flies Be Gone. It is a cheap knock off imitation named Flies Away. Of the 3 traps I purchased, one had a hole in the bottom of the bag. The second broke within an hour of filling the bag. The plastic bag separated from the yellow top. The third trap seems to be okay but it is only the first day. This listing should be taken down as this is a fraudulent listing. NOT THE PRODUCT BEING ADVERTISED!!!"
+10979,1,I dont think so,"impossile to get a reading....There is no way my steak is 350 degrees right now...When it was 60 degrees outside, just having it turned on with no source of heat/cold other than the air outside, it told me it was below freezing"
+10980,2,Pilot's Perspective,"I like adventure books, especially those that deal with northern flying. This title clearly fell into that catagory. The autor gave us a perspective of the Iditarod race that only a pilot could. As a pilot who has flown in Alaska I found all of his flying information to be accurate. But best of all the book was very well written. The author has polished his work. The chapters are all very readable and fascinating. I would recommend this book to anyone whose interests run along the same lines as mine do; flying, Alaska, adventure and the Iditarod. My only complaint is a complete lack of pictures."
+10981,1,ultimately unsatisfying,"Hill's book is well-written, but ultimately unsatisfying.What is the point of a mystery in which nothing is ever resolved, or even explained?Although the characters are intriguing, the reader is left frustrated and disappointed in the end."
+10982,2,Amazing if true!,"I saw this guy on the TV and he made some good points and so I bought the book. It is scarier than the worst horror story! If this stuff is true it is horrible! How can there be so many lies and cover ups? I think there should be an investigation into these points and if it is true, heads should roll! If it is not true, this author's head should roll for scaring us this way! A good read, a good story."
+10983,1,Problematic,"It's easy to mix the plaster, but hard to tell when the right time is to have the child put their hand in. It seemed to set either too slowly or too quickly. It's quite hard getting a 1 or 2 year old to press their hand into the plaster properly, but that's not the product's failure. One thing I must stress is that you make sure to let the plaster dry completely before putting the tin lid on. I put the lid on before it was completely cured and ended up with black mold growing on the underside of the lid.All in all, I find the moldable clay kits much easier to work with, less messy, and they give you more chances for a successful print."
+10984,2,Great rug for the money!,"I was very unsure of ordering a rug without seeing it first because I had never heard of Verona before. However, this is a very nice, heavy rug for the price. I don't know a lot about rugs but I've never seen any rug this size for under $100. In my opinion, it appears to be good quality for the price. I think the list price of $399 is a little off (not superior quality), but certainly worth what Amazon charges.In short, I would recommend this rug to someone who wants a nice, inexpensive rug that they won't have to worry about if it gets dirty (just buy a new one)."
+10985,2,Great Album!!,"This is a great album. My favorite songs on the record are ""For Free"", with its beautiful use of piano and cello, and ""Morning Morgantown"". Joni's original version of ""Woodstock"", however, is not very good, on account of its slowed-down electric piano accompanyment and the weird yolduling ejaculation at the end. While not quit up to par with later albums such as ""Court & Spark (my personal favorite)or ""Blue"", this album is still a great album and worthy of purchase."
+10986,2,It's Shakespeare....can't you tell?,"I'll start by saying that this is my favourite film in the world and Julia Stiles is my favourite actress.When this film came out I missed it because at the time I hated any sort of 'teen' films and after I did 'Taming of the Shrew' for A'Level's I thought well ok I'll see it. Expecting another 'She's All That' (which I didn't like at all)I was really suprised! It does start worryingly at first because it doesn't seem to have a direction but once the actual plot gets under way it soon picks up. Julia Stiles and Heath Ledger steal the show as the feminist, cynical man-hater and the bad-boy with a wicked reputation, respectively. It's cleverer, funnier, and sassier than any other 'teen' film I've seen and there's hardly a gross joke (ala American Pie and Road Trip) to be seen. Brilliant film, a real pick me up. You must see it :)"
+10987,2,DOG EAT DOG,"Great book,great author. Learn about Bunker he lived this life. The author is as fascinating as many of his characters.His characters are fascinating because they are apart of him or someone he knows in this dangerous world.R.I.P. Bunker."
+10988,1,"Comedy Scene, and Not Heard","This DVD will be a disappointment if you get it hoping to see some substantial portion of the acts of the various comics listed on the cover. All you get here are snippets of performance, at best. The rest is just loose-leaf reminiscence about the good old days in Boston, in the early 80's, when a lot of comics were hanging out together and getting their start.It's like a frat house reunion. There's a lot of lame nostalgia. There are quite a few guffaws recalling jokes (practical and otherwise)perpetrated - back then. But you had to have been there to appreciate all the basically good ol' boy camaraderie. If you weren't actually a part of that scene, all this joshing and jostling will fall flat.If you want to actually hear some of these comics' routines - you will have to look elsewhere."
+10989,2,My life with this book,"Wow, all I can is wow. This is a very interesting read. What a great way to see how life was out on the plains and during the war. Also, it's very trippy to read all about what Custer thought of ""Indians"" and the views that he held for them.What really got me was the reality of this book. Getting an intimate look at the life of not only Custer's, but the soldiers and scouts that he commanded and worked with.Very good and easy read. Custer does like to go off and get very wordy and talkative about subject matter that must have been important back in the 1870's. Still, it does not detract from the book, but only makes it that much more interesting.Pick this one up."
+10990,2,SPECTACULAR,If you like Deep Forest & Enigma then you won't go far wrong with this beauty. I've just come back from the States and heard one of the tracks off this album in a shop whilst browsing. It caught my attention straight away. Do not miss this..
+10991,1,Snow White,Stupidest crap movie ever. Theron and Helmsworth are attractive and fantastic.Kristen Stewart barely says two words and theres this whole scene with a stag in the forest that speaks to Snow White's purity and how she's going to bring about the downfall of the evil queen. Its just stupid.Best scene is the huntsman kissing her back to life - his speech is heartbreaking.
+10992,2,Saving the world one menstrual cycle at a time,"This is a genius product. I realize there are many such products that exist or have been existing. I am a huge fan of the idea. It's easy to use. Method 2 for insertion is probably the easier. The only problem I have is the feeling of being sucked out from the inside when I remove the cup to empty its contents. I wish there were some other way that the seal could be broken. It's nice to think I may never need pads or tampons ever again. It's nice to think that I may make a huge impact through my life by preventing so much waste from ending up in a landfill. Highly recommended! Go buy yourself, your girlfriend(s), or any woman in your life a Diva Cup."
+10993,1,Not a fanstastic book!,"I don't find this book marvelous or see why it deserved 5 stars. In fact, the whole plot is being rushed through. No elaboration is needed more. Between Jessica and Damien, they only met for a few months then get married. BE REALISTIC DEBBIE! How can you get married with someone you met for a few months. In the second story, Debbie gave me a VERY bad impression of her character, Mary Jo, as this Mary Jo kept insisting that the whatever the guy is called, likes her. And do most girls do that? NO! Also, it gives me a bad impression of Jessica trying to act cute in front of guys. I recommend you not to buy it but rent it. I am very disappointed with Debbie's style of writting. The book also have lots of grammer and spelling errors."
+10994,1,My hopes dashed,"I had high hopes for the Kensington iPod FM transmitter and I was very excited when it arrived. Alas, my hopes were dashed when I tried it out and checked its reception on each of the eight positions that this product allows. On each there is constant interference, poor sound and often, complete loss of the signal. It was unusable. I should mention that I live in a large city and there is probably a lot of congestion on the FM radio, but there wasn't any position that delivered even mediocre quality. Guess, I'll have to continue breaking the law and listen to my iPod through headphones while driving....."
+10995,2,A monumental experiment,"This LP is a successful experiment in what electronic music can be. From minimal techno and breaks to tripped out r&b and soulful house, this LP delivers. Truly diverse and interesting. This album is the best thing Atkins has accomplished, in my opinion, and that's saying something as he is regarded as one of the most infuential techno artists of the 90's. One of the gem's of my music collection. Little known. Make it your own."
+10996,1,"audioslave,audioslave,audioslave","avoid this dated,stale boring album from this has been defunct cheesy new wave dance band.any band featuring that geezer andy taylor has to be bad i assure you.minus 100 stars.get audioslave's debut cd instead to listen to some good rock music"
+10997,1,A real disappoinment,"Don't waste your money buying this book. The Grisham name conjures up suspense & court rooms battles. Instead we get a boring read of former high school football stars back in town to mourn the loss of their head coach. While there is some insight into the mentality of ""football stars"", it was not worth the price - borrow it from a friend or library."
+10998,2,ROBERT RULES!,"I first saw Robert and The Family Band on Eric Clapton's Crossroad's DVD (the one in Texas) and he flat wowed me! This is unusual for me now. You see, I'm an old hippie guy and most things new suck (to me). This kid is playing slide like Duane Allman and he's doing it on a George Jones backup pedal steel country friggin' guitar. I buy everything he releases now. I actually had an opportunity to see him locally in a VERY small venue and he and the bass player were walking around in the crowd getting folks to repeat a ""hook"" in the song he was singing. Very high energy live and he won't disappoint you with this CD either!"
+10999,1,One Bad Book,"For a short book, fewer than 100 pages, it is one long, bad, boring read. Save yourself; don't read it if you don't have to."
+11000,2,Great service,"Thanks for your speedy service, and for sending exactly what I ordered. You build confidence in on-line purchasing with your wonderful service."
+11001,2,Complete and encompassing,Most complete and encompassing Civil War era tome written. McPherson expertly details each event by first laying the foundation so that every detail can be understood in it's context.
+11002,2,Moffatts in Chicago vs. the CD,"I just got back from seeing the Moffatts LIVE in Chicago (FRONT ROW BABY!) and I must say, they sound just as great live! Even better I'd say, since they put on a great show! Scott goes WILD! *laughs* He's a tease. Anyway, BUY THIS ALBUM! Every song rules! GO THE MOFFATTS! And what's better, they're totally nice in person since I met them! They atre down to earth and real, unlike some bands. THEY ROCK!Li"
+11003,2,Leonardo plays this one just right.,"A psychological thriller that puts DiCaprio through his paces, and he makes it with shining colors. A movie to be watched more than once, as each viewing reveals more and more content to a very complex character."
+11004,2,First-hand account from a soldier stationed in my local area.,"I have always enjoyed reading about the Civil War, but this book offered a nice surprise. The author was not from the area, but he was often stationed in or near the small Tennessee towns I grew up around, and he gave detailed accounts of them. Places like Lexington, Bolivar, and Bethel. He also mentioned Jackson and the place I now call home...Memphis. It was interesting to read of these familiar towns during a different era, a time of turmoil and grief, and through the eyes of a soldier who'd briefly passed through there. Good read."
+11005,2,Pretty basic,"If you are familiar with the concept, no surprises here. I don't use it for my normal morning coffee, but rather a more precious time, such as hunkering down with a book, or a nice long read of the Sunday paper. The HIC milk frother is a perfect combination to make something seem really special at home."
+11006,2,Pillar of Fire,"Lossin's work is a tremendous, and surprisingly in-depth, look at the 150 year history of Israel and Zionism. Although the images are riveting, most completely unfamiliar and extremely candid, it is the text that bring it to life. Despite the fact that it ends in the 1980's, it is an important record of achievement told in the direct and yet appreciative tone of a journalist who looks deeper than today's news. I highly recommend it!"
+11007,1,BADMOVIE,Bad bad movie. Really bad movie. A rape of the classic monster characters. Bad movie is also bad entertainment and that`s what this movie really is. Bad bad and once again really bad.
+11008,1,No closed captioning,"I give this DVD a ZERO. Docurama didn't care enough to caption this DVD for hearing-impaired people.With the DVD being totally useless to us and all, I shouldn't care about saying anything nice about this DVD.Shame on you Docurama for NEVER captioning your DVDs all these years. :("
+11009,1,Junk Chinese Checkers,"The cardboard board folds, so does not lie flat. Thought having the lines would help my grandson understand how the checkers have to be moved to play, but so wobbly they just roll off the board. I threw it away. Don't waste your money."
+11010,1,Waste of Money,Seemed like good quality at first but after less than two years it's cracked and torn where ever it touches a corner of my grill. My last grill cover outlasted the grill I bought it for. This one is a big disappointment.
+11011,2,the real U2,"This album is great, the songs are very melodic and haunting, both happy and sad, kinda like Joshua Tree, and there is a sense of higher ground there - also like in Joshua Tree, a lifting of the spirit. And yet you can feel the distance they've travelled musically since then, the added maturity. I love it!!"
+11012,1,Not suitable for tall people,"This guy showed up in the gym at my office building. I was very excited to be able to do dips and chinups.First impression was this piece of equipment isn't going to last... it's not commercial quality.I'm 6'6"" and this machine is not built for tall people. The assist pad goes on an angle such that you slide off when you're at the bottom of a chinup, dip, etc. Putting a towel helps some but not enough. It's not tall enough to do hanging leg lifts. The arm padding feels cheap and doesn't provide enough near my elbows when doing regular leg lifts. The only thing that does fit me properly is the dip handle width.I gave this a 2 star just because I'm taller then the average person and wasn't sure how much it cost."
+11013,1,Little coffee maker was a big disappointment,"I bought this for the office as my 12 cup coffee maker had finally broken after years of use. I had only been making half a pot and thought this little one would be ideal. The quantity was just right and I bought a permanent filter to cut down on wasteful paper filters. However, with just two or three uses a day, the lid broke after six weeks' use. Big disappointment."
+11014,2,This system ROCKS!,WOW! What a BLAST! This system really beats the compitition. If you are still sceptical about this system then rent it from Blockbuster or something. The hardware may not be as good as the Playstation 2 but the games are and so is the price!$!$!$!$!
+11015,2,Melissa's best album.,"This album was, in my opinion, at the height of Melissa's tenure with Arista Records. The album is full of one strong track after another. She never disappoints with every song. Melissa's career should have been much bigger than it was. Arista just forgot about her when they started dealing with the likes of Whitney Houston and Mariah Carey. However, if they would have stuck to the real talents, like Manchester, then we would have real superstars in pop music. Melissa Manchester is one of the most talented vocalist of the '70's and '80's. This album will tell you why. Buy it!"
+11016,1,Cheap quality.,Hard to find a Red Baron plane. This one is very cheaply made. The wheels broke off the second day we had it.
+11017,1,Not as good as they used to be?,"I wear the same size shoes as my sister in law. When I borrowed her Sanuk sandals I *had* to get some for myself they were so comfortable. The Sanuk sandals that I received seem to have been made out of a different material, they just were not as comfortable. The biggest problem is that they were smaller. I had my sister in law bring hers over and set them sole to sole, the ones I received in the same exact size were smaller, most noticeably narrower. The strap was also not as roomy or comfortable. I returned these sandals."
+11018,2,Iowa - Slipknot,Pretty good compared to the last album (SLIPKNOT) . I was kind of surprised to see their come back. I have their two albums : SLIPKNOT and IOWA and both are not old for me.Yeah guitars are kind of used repeaditly but not alot. After listening to it the first time i thought the album sucked. But now after year or two its not bad. They don not sound like any other band present. Better than most.Favourite songs:People = Sh*tDisasterpieceEverything EndsI am HatedIowaThe last track IOWA is very long (about 14 mins.) but starting it with slow guitars and very slow vocals. After a while it becomes a very angry song.Overall one of the best Metal album present.
+11019,1,Different from the pictured bear,"I was looking to purchase a ""backup"" bear for the Melodies Gund Bear that my son is currently using. I tried first at my local stores, but they all have the newer version of the bear. Different texture ""fur"", different color eyes, no bow but instead has a ""tattooed"" paw and not as stuffed. I purchased this one from Amazon because the bear pictured is the same bear that my son owns. Fingers crossed, I placed my order and waited for the bear to show up. It arrived on time so no complaints - I was quite happy...until I opened the box. What?! It was the newer version of the Gund Bear. The bear in itself is great. The melodies are sweet and the 3 levels of volume are fantastic. The duration (approx. 15 mins) is more than enough to soothe your child. The bear is a great purchase if, IF, this is your first melodies bear but not if you are looking to replace your child's current gund bear (older version pictured)."
+11020,1,The samples on this page are from the original,"So I went to listen to some samples of the CD on Amazon before I bought it, and lo and behold, Amazon cheated a little and put the original Broadway cast album up for samples, not the revival. That is definitely Raul Julia singing, not Antonio Banderas. Amazon- get it together!"
+11021,2,Thank you,One could be extravagant about the grandior of this book. But it is simply a well written book that could change your life. It is simple and Truthful. I will open your eyes and hopefully your life to how much better it could be.
+11022,1,Yet another unnecessary sequel,"While the story is entertaining and readable, the use of P&P characters is quite unnecessary and somewhat distracting. The development of characters reads more like the inspiration came from the BBC mini series than from the novel. Furthermore, the sound of the dialogue is more often than not strictly modern. Who coiuld ever believe the Darcy's would get caught up in something like this!"
+11023,2,Mr.Weber always gets FIVE STARS!!!,"It has taken me awhile to write this review only because Carl Weber is one of my favorite authors. When I buy his books I don't expect anything less than a five star story. This book was filled with so much drama. I read it everywhere. It really makes you think about dating a man in prison,dealing with a man that has children as well as dealing with your Baby's Daddy over a good man. Lots of issues. At first I thought these two sisters were stupid or just dumb. But faced in the same situations who knows how one would handle the same situations. This is a must read. Mr.Weber knows how to weave a story and leave the reader with his/her mouth open."
+11024,2,Words are not enough,"Read this book. Actually, read the whole ""Imajica"" (I agree with the other reviewer who said that turning it into a two-book set was a mistake). It is the most entertaining, gripping, non-stop, un-put-downable book I've ever encountered. Barker has something to say and he pulls no punches. I had always envisioned him as a horror writer because of his Hellraiser series, and his collaboration with Stephen King on ""The Talisman"". But this book proves him as the premier fantasy author of our time. However, don't go looking for dragons and Barbarella. This is a fantasy that incorporates our 90's mentality and leaves you breathless. Clive, you outdid yourself. I'm reading it for the fourth time now :)"
+11025,2,Works with Vista,It was a little tricky to set up with Windows Vista (couldn't use the installation cd that came with the router) it had to be configured manually. I was able to set up and secure a wireless network in about 10 minutes. Have been using it for about 3 weeks with no problems at all.
+11026,2,This Is Metal,this isn't Hardcore or Metalcore this is Metal a mix of Death Metal and Thrash Metal defently a must for fans of Lamb Of God Killswitch Engage and Shadows Fall
+11027,2,Nice to have one handy if you are an ipod owner.,Great little product. Does it's job w/o fail. I wish it came with the ipod instead of being and extra 30 bucks!
+11028,1,Not the best intro to the Reivers,I bought this after reading the rave reviews. The voices are grewat but the material seems weak. I should have gone with my normal MO for unfamiliar artists and tried their early works first. Maybe its time to just stop buying CDs altogether and just buy downloads.
+11029,1,Bad Battery,"Charged the battery for 24 hours. Did not work. Charged longer ... nothing. Of course, child disappointed. Called Fisher Price and they sent me one free of charge. Would never order this type of product through Amazon again."
+11030,2,Can't live without this pillow!,I've used this brand of pillow for 3 years. The first one I bought from my doctor for $60.00. I bought the exact same pillow from Amazon for a lot less money. It is comfortable and helps with my neck pain. At first it takes about a week to get used to sleeping on but I will never go without it.
+11031,2,Schumann: Piano Music - Review by David Dobson,"This has to be one of my favourite CDs. (And I have lots!) These pieces are absolutely brilliant. That's my opinion, but I'm sure people will back me up. Kinderscenen contains 13 pieces that vary in atmosphere from jokingly (A strange story - 2)to dreaming (Dreaming - 7) to happy pieces (By the fire-side - 8, and knight of the hobby-horse - 9) to very serious (Almost Too Serious - 10) to eerie, (Frightening - 11). Schumann's ""Papillons"" are delightful pieces that I always enjoy listening to. I learnt no.3. Carnaval is probably my favourite schumann piece. Each piece of music is supposed to represent an aquaintence of Schumann's. (Chopin, e.t.c. - 26). The first piece of Carnaval is highly enjoyable simply because of the brilliance of the piece. (Performance standard). As with the Chopin Etudes, I could say something about every track, but I haven't got the time to write all of that down! But the last track is a treat!"
+11032,1,Hummm... Not too much,"I found this album a little dissapointing. And the sensation increase in comparation with ""mi tierra"". The main thing on this is the track selection, wich makes the whole a very downtempo album. Althought there's a couple of up & high beat pieces, the sensation I percive it's like if there were a down for gloria and she wanted to put it in the album. That's no bad. The bad thing comes up when I heard it and I can't get down, Just a little bored. There's no feeling, no emotion, no heart, no music. If you are planning to buy a gloria's CD, don't get this one. Mi tierra would do it best."
+11033,1,"Thanks, Jimmy","Besides the superior BBC sessions, this is it: the only representation of Zeppelin live for people who didn't grow up in the 70's. There is some brief footage on VH1's ""Legends"" and you can find some bootlegs, but this horrible release is Zeppelin live for us young ones. Thanks, Jimmy for your selfishness."
+11034,2,Best Oil Ever,"Once I started using this oil, my Vtec started kicking really well. If your into performance I'd recommend this"
+11035,2,My favorite Agatha Christie,"Even though I had seen the movie before I read the book, this book was still very entertaining. If you do like this book, you might want to try _Toward Zero_ and _They Came to Baghdad_, which are my second favorite Agatha Christies."
+11036,2,Excellent Tutorials!,This book gives very detailed step by step instructions in the sculpting methods used by Katherine Dewey.She even shows readers how to make tools that she uses in sculpting.
+11037,1,retractable screen door,THIS ITEM IS NOT WELL MADE. WITHIN A WEEK OF INSTALLATION THE WEATHERSTRIPPING PULLED LOOSE. I HAVE CONTACTED THE VENDOR VIA EMAIL BUT HAVE YET TO HAVE A RESPONSE. I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS PRODUCE
+11038,1,Comfortable but that is it,"I had been looking for a long time for an affordable wireless RF headset and know Sennheiser to be a good company. The 2 main issues I have with the headset is that you can only wear it for 2 hours max before the batteries go low and it turns itself off and you get this really nasty loud scratchy sound in your ears which is quite startling and horrid. The other issue is that that loud scratchy sound comes and goes no matter how you have it tuned, so you can be comfortably watching a show and all of a sudden there is a short scratchy loud noise that is totally disruptive. It comes and goes and re-tuning does not help. I live in the mountains so I do not have the radio interuptions that would occur in the city so I am not sure why the head set does this continually. I would not reccomend this set at all - I have a cheap Sony set that is much better and I wear with my other TV but it is not RF which is why I bought this headset."
+11039,1,Crummy re-recordings,These aren't the recordings you remember and they just doesn't have the punch. Very weak.
+11040,2,A wonderful escape!,"I have to confess that apart from Something Stupid with Nicole Kidman, I had not really listened much to Robbie Williams - so I'm not a regular fan of his. I bought this CD on a whim having read a review of it and being seduced by the title and album cover. It turned out to be a great buy. I really enjoyed the music, epecially Feel, Love Somebody and Me & My Monkey. The songs are very much ballady in type and the lyrics are wonderful - it's nice to listen to new songs with a story or meaning, rather than a chain of words with rhythm but no connection. I cannot compare this CD with his previous work, but if you like Elton John's music or music of that genre, you would enjoy this."
+11041,1,Why is there not a '0 Star' rating?,"I like Harrison Ford, I like Kristin Scott Thomas, and I even like Charles Dutton (except for Alien 3, yakk). But this movie is a clunker. If it were a horse I would have shot it to put it out of my misery.There is no real suspense and there is no one to root for. Ford's character is driven to find the truth, and the truth is simply the obvious. There is no twist, his wife was sleeping with Thomas' husband. We know it, their friends know it, their co-workers know it, but we have to follow this loser as he spends 2 hours of my life (that I will never get back, I might add) on figuring that out himself. Rent this film at most, do not buy."
+11042,1,Rational minds need not apply,"There is no substance in this blatant attempt to ""prove"" that the bible is the word of god and a true and unchanging record of history. Full of pseudoscience and blanket statements that defy logic, if you are not a faith based believer you will not get anything out of this so called documentary. I flushed my money away on this dog."
+11043,2,Confused,When I was searchig for this product by the AC Delco part number I found it with this vendor. With their link to make sure it would fit my car it said it would not fit. It does fit because AC Delco said it was the right part number and when I received it the part was the correct part. The vendor needs to update their what will fit what part. Next confusion was also created by the vendor; shipping status. This vendor sends out nothing about shipping status. When I inquired I was given a shipping status over one month from the date I inquired. Luckily that status was also wrong because I got the part the in the next couple of days after that status was provided. In the end all worked out okay but the processs was confuising and irritating. Price was right and shipping ended up right. My car was a 2007 Hummer H3.
+11044,2,Far exceeded my expectations,"Books about vampires do not typically wind up on my reading list, but I found this to be an exceedingly well written book. It really wasn't a vampire book as I typically think of them (a lot of bloodlust and other kinds of lust), but really well-written literature with vampires making up some of the characters. While I found the primary character to be a little taxing at times, I did appreciate his humanity. Aunt Queen was a delight. Overall, not a bad read, more because of the writing than the subject matter."
+11045,2,Great!,"Such a great movie. Fast delivery and great price. Funny, thoughtful and great visuals. One of the best blu rays that I own."
+11046,1,Each Album Gets Worse!,"There are only three decent cuts on the Fancy Dancer album:3. You Make Me Feel So Good;5. Mestizo Eyes; and6. Sweeter Than Sugar.Though the cuts are decent, they are little more than urban elevator music. The rest is garbage/filler. Save your money and download the very few decent cuts."
+11047,1,Didn't last long before developing cracks/stains,"We installed this sink in our new laundry room. Initially it looked good, but the high gloss finish wears down quickly and then becomes hard to clean. The side tray is difficult to clean because it really doesn't drain back into the sink, and just pools until you soak it up. The integrated washboard sounds good but we never used it and it just made that many more surfaces for dirt to get caught on and more difficult to clean. It has now developed slight crazing and so we are looking to replace it--won't buy this again--looking for something that won't need replacing in 8 years."
+11048,1,full of errors,"The book covers a lot of material and will undoubtedly be useful to somebody who has already learned the material before (but might have forgotten it). Unfortunately, the book has many many errors, sometimes in crucial places, and many of the summarizing charts are poorly conceived and designed. I suppose it does make one think carefully in order to untangle the correct information from what is written."
+11049,2,"Overall, relaay good 10/22 build up book","This book has some great concepts on some great ways to build up a Ruger 10/22 to a bad ass targer rifle. Most of the ideas will end up making a $200 rifle into a $1000+ .22 using the Nordic kit, and similar high end build kits. Then to add optics. They seem to be big fans of the Eotech sights, another $500 addition to a $200 gun. Long and short, if you have the resources (ie. money), to take a basic level gun to a way higher level, this a great book with alot of good ideas to follow or to use as a base for your own concept 10/22. It's got some really phenominal tacti-cool designs."
+11050,2,Hamilton Rocks,I Have listened to this album at least 100 times. It definately has the beat for a good time.
+11051,2,"""WONDERFUL BOOK""","This edition is a reproduction of the original ""Sketchbook of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs"" published in England by William Collins in 1938. With the exception of the price, the publisher's imprint, and a few minor type changes to prepare this edition for the American public, the jacket and text are reproduced directly from an original book. The simple language of sketches in this book makes it as interesting to read as the fairy tale itself. This is a Collector's Edition and First Printing! A Book everyone should have!"
+11052,2,The Del Rubio Triplets Wonderland!,"This video is what inspired me to track down these ladies for undying worship. I actually worked for them in L.A. for a few years. Now, among the many sites I have designed for celebrities, The Del Rubio Triplets Wonderland! (http://www.thelimelight.com/delrubio.htm) was quite an escape, and was my first...please visit!...AND BUY THIS VIDEO!There's nothing like the ""heavenly tonnations of The Del Rubio Triplets"" singing ""Winter Wonderland"" to warm up to on the upcoming cold nights.BRRRRR! Get that Hot Cocoa goin', the video, and a couch partner and you're in for a rockin' good time! END"
+11053,2,"Beautiful, passionate, and happy music!","This music will make you smile. ""Soy Asi"" is a gem, but really ALL the songs on the CD are stellar! The musicians are as tight as Steely Dan, but with a joyous Latin feel. The singer burns with intensity, but - once again - it's a joyous intensity. I think this band is poised to become a world-wide phenomenon. I love their sound! The songs are built around the vocal and a cheerful, traditional-sounding accordion. But then, they add a reggae-inflected bass line and killer percussion, taking Latin Pop into an entirely new place! I haven't been this excited about a new discovery since Sheryl Crow's first album. Give this band a listen!"
+11054,1,"Always a lib, never a conserv","This guys is full of it. He never was a conservative. He builds strawmen arguments then tears them down. Heck anyone can tear down a strawmen. Not convincing at all. If it walks, talks and quacks like a duck, let's call it a duck. If it wreaks of social istic and communistic idealogies then call it that. As for me I will continue to pay my own way, that is why I will vote for conservatives.I ain't left the party it left me!!!!!!!!!"
+11055,2,Stunning,"I just finished the last book in this series, and all I can say is, wow. The books are some of the best Christian fiction I have read -- right next to Randy Alcorn (though the styles are totally different). Even though they do deal frankly with some gritty issues (sexual temptation being extremely present), it was this very fact that made the lessons more poignant. I walked away from each book being eternally affected because of the ""realness"" of the scenarios and characters.If you are affected by graphic descriptions and sensual scenes, then be forewarned that these definitely contain those things. But in my opinion, these parts were definitely outshone by the lasting lessons and the impact that Hadassah will have on you."
+11056,2,Awesome,This book is fantastic. I bought it at a great price with quick shipping. Plus it is in very good condition as a hard cover book. I am So Very Pleased with My Purchase. Thank You Very Much!
+11057,2,Global Development: A Reference Handbook,"Savitt and Bottorf have done a valuable service for the discipline of development economics, first for compiling a comprehensive set of resources in the field and second for making it accessible to the beginner as well as to the expert.The authors offer a concise introduction to development, including its history and economic principles. Those with an interest in the role of women and development will not be disappointed with the treatment of issues in that area.Particularly valuable to the researcher are the reference sections, including a chronology, biographical sketches of some of the most notable figures in development, facts and statistics, organizations, an selected print and nonprint resources.This book is an excellent reference and an essential item on the shelf of every scholar - or nonscholar - who is interested in the plight of the poor throughout the world."
+11058,1,Pablum,"This book is horribly superficial, and the writer shows a very clear failure to understand many of the themes in LOTR. This is not finding God in LOTR, but how to use LOTR as a blunt instrument in proselytizing for evangelical christianity; emphasis on ""blunt""."
+11059,1,Really ????????,"Up until now many reviews on this site have been o.k as such, but I bought this DVD based upon the reviews and what waste of money ! The production is poor, the plans of action poor. For example who would travel half way round the world to explore something in no mans land and go out in the blue yonder without topping up the gas tank. They had this "" almost "" out of gas stunt a few times over and showing you the team boarding a small turbo prop aircraft to travel from the USA to a Pacific Island ! Leave it out, what a load of toffee. I figure the reviews came from the cast and crew. This just cannot be considered even amateur let alone serious. Oh and boys, if you want to catch something on film in the jungle, shut up !"
+11060,1,youre all wrong,"the song is by ""this mortal coil"" which is a cover from someone else..the original song sounds terrible....this mortal coil did the best job...robert plant also did this song lol..it suckshope that helped"
+11061,1,Reactionary and dangerous,"This is nothing less than a program for the propagation of STDs and misery, wrapped in reactionary religious dogma. Beware!"
+11062,2,Lucky To Be A Survivor,"A SHORT HISTORY OF NEARLY EVERYTHING is the story of the scientific discoveries which have helped us begin to understand the origin of the human race, the earth and the universe. Bryson includes what is now known about the oceans and the very little that is known about the interior of the earth. The most interesting part of the book for me is the discussion of the origin of life in all its forms and the various theories about the evolution of the human species.Bryson is an excellent writer and he manages to make his story very entertaining. It is difficult to read this book without gaining a greater appreciation for both our insignificance in the universe and also our incredible good fortune in finding ourselves among the survivors on this planet."
+11063,1,Debunked and disgraced,Bellesiles work has been thoroughly debunked and he has been forced to resign in disgrace. Don't buy this book.
+11064,2,space opera for a rainy day,"An enjoyable sequel focusing on different characters thanDeathstalker. This book focuses more on the politics ofthe Imperial Court and her Imperial Majesty Lionstone XIV.The plot is splitting into many possible directions and Iestimate at least two more sequels, possibly more. I wouldrecommend reading Deathstalker first. The 'space opera' inthis book is definitely above average."
+11065,2,Kashmir: The Symphonic Led Zeppelin (CD),The CD is excellent and I received it quickly after ordering.
+11066,2,Fun Movie,"I'm not a fan of big and long drawn out reviews so I'll just get to the point. I don't know why everyone is hating on this film so much but I actually enjoyed it. True, the plot wasn't the most amazing thing ever, but it was funny and lighthearted and didn't take itself too seriously. The twist at the end and Elise's line about his face when they're sailing away in the boat was classic, haha. Definitely a good buy and I don't regret it."
+11067,1,Not in a day or less,"This book has a lot of good ideas, however, it did not help with training my 3 year old. It requires you to load up your child on liquid so he/she has the urge to go, which is a good idea. However, checking to see if he/she has dry pants every 5 minutes isn't feasible. Your conversation with your child the whole time is supposed to be about going on the potty - however many hours it takes to get them trained. My son got bored with the conversation and didn't pay attention. And once the child gets the whole going on the potty thing, they aren't supposed to tell you when they have to go, they are just supposed to go. The book states that you should put the potty where ever they may be - outside, inside, in their room - so it is easily accessible to them. I would rather have my son come and get me when he has to go.Needless to say, my son is still not potty trained and it's been 3 weeks since we've received this book."
+11068,2,Cuisinart dcc-2000 coffee,"great service, got the best price around. just don't use really finely ground coffee in it, or you will get grounds."
+11069,2,Moving - Highly Recommended,"""Arlington: In Eternal Vigil"" is a moving look at the history and significance of The Arlington National Cemetery. This documentary was sent home with my son as part of his AP US History class homework and we ended up watching it as a family.This is very well produced and covers much more than the more famous memorials and notable figures laid to rest in what was Confederate General Robert E. Lee's estate, but also includes lesser known facts about other memorials to be found on the site. There are poets, artists, explorers, former slaves, and even Confederate soldiers interned at the site.The interviews, photography, and videos were all tastefully complied to make this both educational and meaningful for everyone that is interested in American history. One of the important facts I learned is that Secretary of Defense can see the cemetery from his office, which is constant reminder that there is cost to keeping us free.Highly Recommended!CFH"
+11070,2,Good price,This was a good price. I recommended buying this at a cheaper price then going to your college bookstore. This is definitely worth it.
+11071,2,Worth buying,Very solid product. Has questions that are typical of review questions with short explanations. Well worth the cost.
+11072,2,Fantastic Movie,"This was one of those great kiddie movie that you have to add to your collection. My four year old absolutely enjoyed this movie and so will you. It is a must have believe me, the music and the movie was great....."
+11073,2,Good Movie,"I like this movie, specially the actor Sean Connery. I collect most of his movies. Specially the James Bond series."
+11074,1,Very Displeased,"I'm not quite sure what Paramount's rationale was for only including the two made-for-tv MacGyver movies in this set and not releasing them individually for purchase. Like some of the previous reviewers, I bought each and every season as they were released, being a huge fan of the series, but this is borderline insulting the way Paramount is handling it's marketing. I will not buy this set to simply obtain the two missing movies because of how much money was already invested in purchasing each season seperately. This is a very disappointing and obvious marketing ploy by Paramount to get more money out of die hard viewers."
+11075,1,misleading description by seller,"THe seller advertised the condition of this book as having minimal highlighting wear and tear. The conditon of the book was anything such- the cover was taped together, and it is hard to find a clean page without markings. I am very unsatisfied with the purchase."
+11076,2,Excellent Material!!!,I loved these books. They are SO helpful and have contributed to me being able to raise well behaved kids that are a JOY to be with!!
+11077,2,Great Boots,The boots are wonderful and are of great quality. If someone has thicker calves then i wouldnt suggest the taller ones because they are narrow to fit snug against the leg.
+11078,1,awful,"The sense of humor is juvenile & it has no serious advice. Seriously, if you're not looking for old man humor, spend your money elsewhere."
+11079,2,An Underrated Classic,"Finally! After years of wishful thinking, it's happened. I'm so glad that animated Alf has seen the light of day! Over the years I managed to find a few PAL videotapes which I transferred to NTSC, but having so many episodes finally available on DVD is great. As was mentioned, the Alf animated series ranks up there with other modern classics. I've never understood why it didn't develop more of a following among animation fans, maybe these two releases will change that. Even folks who aren't fans of the 'flesh and fur' Alf owe it to themselves to check out the animated series. It is quite different from the primetime TV show, it has much more of an edge...very bizarre at times. The writing is excellent, as is the voice characterization. Awesome stuff all around, highly recommended!"
+11080,1,Won't add PJ Tracy to my list of 'must read' authors,"I was so disappointed with this book. The sales blurb made it sound like one of those books I would read in one sitting; instead I had to force myself to keep going. The characters never became real for me and the narrative didn't flow and was stilted. In addition the whole thing was so unbelievable - even taking the point above about the Twin Towers. In short, I wanted a good read and got a mediocre one. Maybe if I had read the other books first, I would have liked this better. As it is I won't be buying the previous ones."
+11081,2,WODNERFUL,i loved this story when i saw it a while back ago on AMC & i loved it went crazy trying 2 find it BUT ta da here it wz:D...recomend it 2 NE 1 who likes old movies:D...it is very very good:D
+11082,2,Some redeeming features but not C. Psychosis caliber,"I enjoy most of the tracks on the release and even enjoy the slower pieces remarkably... God Kicks ain't a rocker fer sure, eh? but it ""rocks"" if ya know what I mean. I was pleased to hear this CD after the release of Troublegum which really didn't float my boat unfortunately. I had too many expectations from C.P. and Nurse that just didn't get met and maybe my expectations were pretty low when I listened to Suicide Pact for the first time... but I liked it and continue to play it regularly. ""He's not that kind of girl"" sets a pretty agressive tone right up front that the rest of the CD has difficulty keeping up with at times. Still worth a listen."
+11083,1,Crap at last sting,"I realize the Scorpions have been rocking and rolling the world for 20+ years, but what the hell is this...? I think they've been listening to the Back Street Boys & N-Sync too much! Yeah, there are a couple of decent tunes here, but they are trying way to hard to appeal to the masses. Using those eletronic drum machines - where is Herman Rarebell when you need him? The music seems heavily influenced by the movie ""Night at the Roxy"". These tunes are almost danceable. Who said ""change"" is good. This sucks. Scorps should stick to waht they know... ROCK & ROLL."
+11084,2,sheer joy,"Watching this concert left me speechless - it really blew me away. Being a life-long fan of the fab-four, I mourned the passing away of George. This concert showed me how much George is loved - the Royal Albert Hall was jam-packed to the brim. EC,Billy Preston,Jeff Lynne,Ray Cooper,Tom Petty+Heartbreakers,Paul and Ringo and others all come together to honour the great music of a dear friend and extremely talented fellow musician and artist. I couldn't get over how much Dhani resembles his father, and I couldn't fight back the tears when the camera angle captured Paul,Ringo and Dhani together in the same frame (if only Julian had been there on stage...). I highly recommend this DVD to any Beatle fan especially to those who loved George."
+11085,1,I disliked this book immensely.,"I have read all of Sandra Brown's books, and have loved them all. I have been a big fan of her's for a long time. This book is nothing like her other books. I feel she is trying to change her style from Romance to a more grotesque, crude form of murder mystery. I hope her next book will be more like her other novels and not like ""Unspeakable"". This book was a great disappointment to me."
+11086,1,On the Outside Looking In.,"Although Markoff is an exceptional writer and the book is both easy to read and entertaining, the content is presented as factual when the truth is that these guys definitely wrote the book with only part of the whole story at their disposal. One of the main ""cyberpunks"" depicted in the book is Kevin Mitnick, who claims that he has never even met John Markoff. How can the book fairly and accurately speak to the topic of hacking during the early days of the Internet revolution when they never did any investigations with real ""hackers""? The story is told only from a law enforcement point-of-view. I am sure that the Rodney King story is told differently by King than the LAPD. Same goes for this case.Like many works today that seem to be written for financial reasons, it seems very one-sided and sensational."
+11087,1,Makes Superfly look like the Godfather,"I don't know if this is a movie or a minstrel show.I would say that it's two things Beanie Siegel and Dame Dash pride themselves on when making these retarded hood movies. One is ""keeping it straight hood"" another is sterotypes.There's no need for me say what hasn't already been said about this movie because quite honestly, the horrible quality of this movie speaks for itself.This isn't black cinema it's black death.anyone with the intellect that's over 12 years old will let the ""State"" keep this ""Property"".P.S. What's up with the horrible muti-shot scenes( a bunch of scenes in one shot) near the end of the movie where they are attempting to tie up the loose ends the story( if you wanna call it a story). I guess Damon Dash is the next Quentin Taratino(sarcasm)."
+11088,1,Way to politically correct,"First, I will say this is fine for children and the graphics are charming. Howewver, for an educated adult we can see through the hype and political correctness. The overt correctness ruins it for us adults.The characters are not well balanced racially and in sexual orientation. They put in a Token black,Latinoe and boyish girl. This is not a real depiction of how are society is made up.The Latino girl is depicted with her large butt and hips and her silly speach. The Black is the typical black made palletable for white audiences. (you know the type, all white features and a slightly tinted brown complexion. One Asian and an american Indian.Films are supposed to be art. Not extension of the DNC."
+11089,2,sonic rulz!,This game is a solid b+. It would have been an a but its just too short! Its h-e double hockey sticks tryin to get all the chaos emeralds just to get amy rose and a chao garden! Other then that this is a very worthy addition to the sonic series.
+11090,1,NOT AS BIG AS IT LOOKS!!!,"The mask claims to be adult size. However unless your a child, don't plan to have much us with it. It won't fit."
+11091,1,Gucci,"When I bought the same product at the store, the perfume was much better. Not sure if it is authentic"
+11092,2,Big Damn Hit,"Love this series and it is quite possibly the biggest mistake fox ever made, canceling it. Quality and sound are great. Pick one up especially when on sale. Live on Serenity."
+11093,1,Wake me when it's over.,"Atom Egoyan must love watching people stare off into the distance for a really long time.Seriously. Every line of dialogue In the movie is followed by the character staring for a long time. If you cut the long stares out, this would be, like, maybe 20 minutes.I did leave a spoiler warning, but truth be told there's nothing to spoil because you saw it 24 years ago when it was called ""Fatal Attraction"". Woman thinks her husband is cheating. Woman hires a depressed whore to bang her husband, thus catching him in the act. Woman falls in lovemwith the whore. Whore won't go away, blah blah blah.My best advice? Avoid."
+11094,1,DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT...THE ORIGINAL MUSIC IS MISSING!,"Like many others who have reviewed this DVD boxed set, I was eager to buy it. I grew up watching WKRP In Cincinnati and have told my wife about it many times. I marked my calendar and showed up at a local store to buy it today.As soon as I read the back of the box, I put it back on the shelf in disgust.I refuse to buy a product so poorly handled. I would gladly have paid $10 more per set to have the original music intact. If Miami Vice could do it, the studio that owns the rights to WRKP in Cincinnati could have done it.This is sloppy, short-sighted, and inexcusable.KRP was a classic show that captured the spirit of the '70s -- music and all. There's no excuse for it to be butchered this way.When this boxed set is restored to its original state, I'll buy it. Until then, I'll be content to remember it for the classic that it was."
+11095,1,its OK,The book is pretty good if you are not counting on these techniques with your life or If you are a kid and have a bully problem. The book shows some ok techniques but I am not sure they work because I have tried them and they have no effect.
+11096,2,Home theater quality for your computer,"This is the best-sounding amplified multimedia speaker system I've heard. Period. This is a serious system for serious computer-lovers, serious music-lovers, and serious gamers. The speakers in this system are actually components in other Canmbridge home theater set-ups, so that should tell you right away that these computer speakers are more than just a cut-above. You have to hear them to believe them, that's all I can say. Music on these speakers is rich and beautiful... and these speakers can play LOUD. You definitely want this system if you spend any time whatsoever at the computer."
+11097,2,Happy with purchase,"This book arrived very quickly. It has been gently used,but is in great shape and my son doesn't have to lug this text book home from school."
+11098,1,"Unreliable, poor quality","I bought this vacuum machine in April 2012 and it stopped working after only five months. It's unreliable, designed badly and of poor quality. The one year parts/labor warranty does not cover the agitator belt. Once it breaks down, you will have to get it fixed on your own. So much for the one year part/labor warranty. it hardly deserves a star"
+11099,1,Star Trek Voyager: The Complete Third Season,The discs were wiped clean. There was nothing on any of the discs. I had already thrown away the receipt as I have always had excellent service. I didn't see any reason to keep the receipt.
+11100,2,Storyline ....,"Since Amazon hasn't posted an editorial review, here's the description from the back of the book to help you decide if this book is for you: From the back cover: ""Like the Thorn Birds ... Greenstone has all the ingredients of a hit ... guild, grief, and love in a story of revenge, manipulation, and fate."" .... ""There was only dead silence. And then her mind went blank, unable to grasp the horror that had shattered her childhood ... Even from the ruins of a tragic moment, Juliette Peridot would emerge a beautiful young woman with a spirit that could not be defeated by either the harshness of the New Zealand wilderness or the cruelty of those who would betray her. Pursued by shameful secrets of forbidden love and violent revenge, she struggled for a dream her heart refused to surrender ... until fiery passions so long denied exploded in a triumphant moment of truth and love."""
+11101,2,Appreciate It More Reading It the Second Time Around,"I revisited this book after going to a book talk by Mingfong Ho. In her talk, she recounted how she was inspired to write the book. When the Khmer Rouge was driven from power in 1979, she went back to help refugees fleeing to Thailand. While the story of Cambodia is now one of a country developing and limping into peace, their past isn't one we should forget. In order for many children to appreciate this book, I feel that an introduction into the Cambodian genocide might be necessary as well as covering more recent civil strife which has resulted in refugees fleeing their country. There are more refugees today than in any other time in history. The Clay Marble tells an important story of inspiration and hope."
+11102,2,what a mystery,This book is awsome! I think that teachers should read this book to there class! You always want to get to the end of the chapter because at the end of every chapter something scary or cool happens! You should read this book!
+11103,2,Very interesting,"I was surprised with this video. There were some very good questions asked by the reporter. I thought it was very insightful about Sadam. However, if you think it is Sadddam actually being interviewed, it is not. It is a FBI agent and he is wonderful. He had some good information and stories about Saddam and his captivity by the US. Well worth the time and money. Otis"
+11104,2,small but good for floating,"The pump that comes with the raft works, but falls apart pretty easily. I can still use my pump but I have to hold it kind of awkwardly. Regardless, for $20 i'm surprised it even comes with a pump."
+11105,2,A Modern Classic!!,"This movie is awesome! If you have ever wondered why life is the way it is, or what if that one thing you [messed] up could have been changed, than this movie will really catch your attention. It is filled with comedy, drama, and just plain fun. The acting is superb, the characters are well thought out, and the story line is excellent. An interesting tid bit: Part of this movie was filmed at the Biltmore Mansion in Ashville, NC. This movie is absolutely one of my favorites, I will be preordering this one for sure! Four words: A modern day classic!"
+11106,1,wrong size,"I ordered 2 XL Tshirts, one black and one gray. I got 1 gray and 1 pink, both said XL on them, but one was 2 sizes smaller."
+11107,1,quality control?,"INCREDIBLY disappointed. Before opening the box, I could see smudges of cloudy goop all over the wood and cushion one of the chairs. Once I opened it, I checked it out closer, it was excess glue but fortunately, it was water soluble, so I could scrub it all off myself without too much damage to the chairs. While removing the table from the packaging, it came apart, the glue keeping the mini dowels in their paces had no hold. When I tried to glue it together myself, I discovered that it was terribly crooked, when I tried to figure out why, I noticed that they gave me two short spindles for the legs (there are five total keeping it together) so there is nothing to be done about the crookedness. The cabinet has a wonky door that gets pushed in way too easily and stuck inside and can't come out easily. Huge bummer for my little girl's dollhouse, the other two room sets we bought from this brand were acceptable, but this one makes me wonder if they have any quality control whatsoever."
+11108,1,Look elsewhere...,"I have had lots of these sunshades over the years, and usually they last for years. These worked the first time I opened them, and when it came time to put them away one closed as expected, the other one would not close no matter what technique I used. Someone else tried as well, just in case it was my error. It wasn't. I also found them to be flimsy. Not worth your time. Sure do appreciate Amazon's easy and awesome return policy!"
+11109,2,"Good, clean, stupid fun.","I give this CD five stars simply because it has the guts to exist. Basically, if you liked the Prodigy song ""Breathe"", you will like this whole album. Period."
+11110,2,Lego Star Wars Episode 3:Ultimate Lightsaber Duel,"Hello,first of all I am an Episode 1 collecter.This happens to be my first episode 3 set.It wasn`t so entertaining(or atleast what they suggest us to do).This set however has a features.Here are the minifigures:Obi-Wan Kenobi(jedi master,hood,light-up)Anakin Skywalker(jedi master,light-up)Here are the features:Battle(move around the handle and move platforms)Lightsaber light-up(press down head)Pros:Light-up minifiguresCons:Way to boringOverall:The minifigures outrank the whole set.Side Note:Read my episode 1 set reviews.They get better credit :D"
+11111,2,Rougher Version,"This is the original release of this show. The mix is a bit weird, and the vocals are out front with the guitars mixed low. The later release was remixed and doesn't have this issue. This version has one song not on the ""King Biscuit"" version (Your Pretty Face is Going to Hell); that version has two songs not on this version (Winners and Losers/Scene of the Crime & Cold Metal). So, if you want the complete show, you still need both versions.As for the performance, it is top-notch. Iggy is very vocal between songs, more so than on any other recording I've heard from this tour. Even songs that were medicore on the album (Squarehead, Easy Rider, High on You) shine in their live incarnations."
+11112,1,Craftsman Robogrips are much better than these,These are supposed to be like the Craftsman Robogrips thatSears introduced several years ago. The Craftsman product is holdingup much better than this brand.
+11113,1,Science made politically correct.,"Gould, who's own actual research concerned snails, has found a more successful niche writing popular science. Some of his discussions, such as those involving the punctuated equalibrium nature of evolution or the explosion of the diversity of life during the cambrian period, are interesting. However, whenever he moves on to human populations, he always takes the ""politically correct"" tact, for example, denying a genetic basis of intellience. When he sticks to his own field, his books contain true pearls. Unfortunantely, one generally has to dig through a large pile of excrement to find them."
+11114,1,Bought in bulk and NONE work,"I bought 10 boxes and absolutely none work. Looked up online and it seems Sony came out with a bunch of DVDs that don't work. They have a way to return them to get your money back if you have the DVDs w/the known numbers on the discs that they know were part of the batch that came out defected.I just haven't had time so ... so far I've wasted my money on 10 boxes of Sony's truly ""BLANK"" DVDS.Never again..."
+11115,1,Don't waste your money on this !,"Does not heat period !! It is quiet because it does not do anything. I sometimes wonder if it is working, I have to go very close to feel any heat coming out of it. Don't waste your money on this heater. I always trust Consumer Reports but this time they have got it wrong !!"
+11116,1,An over-priced non-miracle product,"This is not a must-have product. It weighed my hair down and made it greasy, though I didn't use more than a dime's worth. My mother had the same experience. We both have thick, dyed-blonde hair. It didn't noticeably improve the shine of my hair, didn't aid in styling it, and did not enhance the finished look of my hair. I tried using it on both wet and dry hair- always had the same experience. My mother liked the fragrance, which is kind of citrus-y, but I'm not wild about it. Eufora-brand products are better and more effective, IMHO."
+11117,1,Disappointed,"I was very disappointed in this product. The signs were difficult to understand and the pictures were not great. Also, some of these were not the most common Mother Goose poems and there were only a few anyway."
+11118,2,Comfortable - reading,"I enjoyed the story of Carol Taggert and Lee Grafton, I would have liked her to be a little more comfortable with her family at her age, and he a little more satute. But overall it was a good read."
+11119,2,One Tree Hill's Road Mix,"I only bought this CD because I've been watching One Tree Hill from the very first season (and b/c of that hot James Lafferty, bka Nathan Scott). This CD is so good. I've listened to this CD in my car CD player for about the last 6 months!"
+11120,1,Building stairs is a huge responsibility,"They must work perfectly every time they are used for the life of the house because someone can be horribly injured or worse, including the builder. Not for a DIY project and I was alarmed by what this volume left out. A DIY stairs project would be painting trimming an interior staircase, or tacking down some mats. I do not feel the book is unsafe, just grossly incomplete.Sorry, I have to rate the book at 1 star. Zero wasn't an option.Hire a licensed builder with time in rate."
+11121,1,Get on the fast track to injury with this DVD!,"I can't believe anyone would give this DVD a positive review. Denise Austin is the worst instructor ever. She never gets into the rhythm of the music, her cueing is atrocious, and her movements and direction changes are willy nilly. ""Last set"" or ""one more set"" almost always means at least 3 or 4 more sets. Her stationary floor/toning work is okay but not worth buying the DVD. A total waste."
+11122,1,Was Great While it Lasted,"This product worked very well, while it worked. Used it for a multiple state road trip and it worked all there and back and then some but then suddenly quit working after less than a month after purchasing it. It didn't melt like I see others have had the problem of melting, it just plain does not work. No power passes through it, I don't know if the problem lies in the plug or the three extension holes. Of course, I cannot return it or exchange it as I was apparently only given 30 days to do this in. Guess I should have heeded negative reviews more than I usually do, not that I ever completely ignore them, but usually I realize the product should fall somewhere between the good and bad reviews. Not in this case!"
+11123,1,Don't believe the hype,"A lot of reviews on here rate this DVD highly because the kids like it. Some kids would like ice cream and gummy bears for every meal but that doesn't mean parents should provide them. This DVD is really, really disturbing. The plot is strange and dark and made me (as an adult) uncomfortable. Many videos have some sort of fantasy/mysticism but this one was closer to the dark side of things. (Side note--it's not even rated.) The female characters are dressed inappropriately (very short skirts, midriffs) and some of the dialogue and visuals are sexually suggestive. Yes, your kids will probably like it. Don't buy it."
+11124,2,ACDelco CV789C PCV Valve,AC Delco has excellent replacement parts.I've been using AC Delco PCV Valves for many years and never had an issue with AC Delco PCV Valves.I know that there priced higher then the less expensive PCV Vales on the market but they last twice as long.I highly recommend this product.
+11125,1,Wish I read these reviews before buying!!!!!!!!!,"Boy do I really wish I did read these reviews before buying this! It is definately a waste of money. My daughter was so happy when she opened it for Christmas and then when she tried to program it, she got frustrated! Then I tried to help and got frustrated myself!!"
+11126,1,Never liked this series,"I'm sure this is one of those books that you either love or hate. I just can't get into the humor. The quality of the writing is of course good and if you like Adam's stype them you'll fidn this book a 5*. For me the story is infantile and just not funny. I'd rate the story 1* but in fairness I know it is more a matter of taste, hence 2* to reflect the fact that it is well written."
+11127,1,Not a good value,"I love Amazon but don't know what happened on this product. I guess they can't be the best at everything. Amazon is still the best generally. In this case however, there is a company by the name of RennTech which has forums about Porsche. People who bought this manual from Amazon in Dec '05 did so at a third of what it is today for this same manual. The author makes the same manual available directly today (do a search) at a relative bargain (about 60%). Other than that, being more specific would be against the posting rules."
+11128,1,"OK, BUT NOT WORTH THE MONEY",I ACTUALLY RETURNED THIS ITEM AFTER I USED IT ONLY ONCE. OUT OF THE BOX (AFTER THE FIRST CHARGE) IT DID NOT WORK. I TOOK THE BATTERY COVER OFF AND FOUND THAT ONE OF THE LEADS WAS DISCONNECTED. ONCE I GOT PAST THAT ISSUE I BEGAN USING IT IN OUR KITCHEN. AFTER ABOUT 5 MINUTES THE POWER BEGAN TO DIMINISH. AT FULL CHARGE IT PICKED UP DIRT VERY WELL BUT THE POORLY DESIGNED EXTENSION TUBES KEPT COMING APART. BASICALLY THIS VACUUM NOT AT ALL WHAT I HAD EXPECTED.
+11129,1,More garbage,"More horribly written nonsense from the very worst of the utterly self-absorbed, opportunistic, '90s, ""new age"" profiteering quacks."
+11130,2,Give me my Batman!,I Loved this series as a child and would love to give you some of my hard earned American money for it so you can buy an even more ridiculous house than you already own. Please let us have it!
+11131,2,A very informative book about Polish Aces.,"This is fascinating history. Polish aces made a significant contribution to the RAF's efforts to fight the Germans. This book gives those significant details. Aviation enthusiast will find out why Polish pilots had one of the highest kill-loss ratios in the ETO. They will find that the Polish Air Forde was not detroyed on the ground in September, 1939 but went on to combat the Germans to the end of the war. The Battle of Britain information is especially informative."
+11132,1,Disappointed highly,"No doubt the author knows subject matter. Before releasing this book, some one should have asked several people who dont know asp.net to actually use the book and learn form it by following step by step in each of the chapters to the 'T', they would have found out that they cannot do it.Too many errors, and missing steps. This is not a step by step book, it should be called ""Missing steps book"", it is not for some one who does not already know asp.net; then again if you already know why would you want to get this book anyway."
+11133,1,too slow,"This video has the right idea but goes way too slow. For some reason prenatal yoga videos I've watched, including this one, act like pregnant women can't workout at all. I at least want to break a sweat when I'm done. With this video it didn't happen. But I also was a runner before getting pregnant so maybe for others who haven't exercised they'd like it."
+11134,1,Gundam WIng is a sellout of the original spirit of Gundam!,"I think anypone who has seen the original and the Z,ZZ and Char's COunterattack will agree that Gundam WIng is a sellout of the original spirit of what makes Gundam so great. Gundam Wing is more the flair of Power Rangers -- invincible, color-schemed, good looking young men who are basically one dimensional characters. Gundam Wing may have been good nuff as a standalone series, but it really shoudlnt be included as a Gundam series. That is just wrong. It does injustice to the rest of the Gundam saga. If you want real GUndam, see 0083 Stardust memory or 8th Platoon. NOW THOSE ARE WHAT GUNDAMS ARE ALL ABOUT!!"
+11135,1,Huge Jackass fan very disappointed,"I am a huge fan of Jackass, but am extremely disappointed. I was expecting extra footage, no bleeping of curse words or blurring of naughty bits, but no... these DVD's are exactly what was on TV & I already had every episode on tape. Now I'll be the sucker buying them again when the 'deluxe & uncensored' version comes out. It's still really funny though, so If you don't have them on tape or have never seen these episodes, then pick it up."
+11136,1,Net tore on the first day of use,"We just bought this item for our 10 year old son, who loves to play soccer. It was pretty easy to set up with clear directions, and everything was as described in the listing. However, after my 10 year old, my 8 year and I were playing with it for a few hours having a great time, one of my sons pointed out that that the net was already torn. Upon further inspection, I realized he was right and that the net appeared to be very low quality.I later contacted Franklin about a warranty claim, but they weren't taking calls. I emailed my claim a few days ago per their instructions, but I have yet to hear anything back. I called today, but didn't reach a live person - I left a message. Someone called me back and apologized that I didn't get a confirmation, but I should be receiving the replacement net in a week or so. So that part of customer service was very good.Hopefully the new net holds out better."
+11137,2,great book,This book was really good! I wasnt thrilled about the last one and I had to wait 5 years for this one..but it was a good read. I hope I dont have to wait 5 more years for the next! ANd I hope the next includes the battle we have all been waiting for!
+11138,1,Problems with the actual recording...,"I liked the music from Minority Report, but rather than talk about the soundtrack itself (because I figure you've seen the film otherwise you wouldnt be here, and you've got many other reviews here talking about the music) I'd like to mention the recording quality of the CD which is EXTREMELY POOR!I have an expensive stereo system and for a modern recording I was severly dissapointed in the quality of the mastering. It hisses, it pops, I thought I was listening to vinyl!!!! Maybe you can't here it on low volumes, or if other stereo systems have more bass which hide it? Personally, I like listening to my music LOUD and this recording SUCKS!"
+11139,2,Palm Cable and Charging Kit,This is a great way to end up with ALL of the cables and interfacing connections for synching Palm info with the computer and for charging the Palm.
+11140,2,"great gate, great price",COmes with many parts that let you customize the gate to your openeing. Bar spacing is very good and latch makes it safe when you don't wnt a chiold to open the gate.Use it for my small dog.Highly recommend it.
+11141,2,Stevenson's Best!,"This book is the best book i have ever read! i have already read this book 5 times and i will read it much more in my lifetime. Stevenson blends adventure and intrigue splendidly in this fast paced novel about a young boy who receives a treasure map from an old buccaneer, and his adventures afterward. Hawkins, the boy, meets up with salty pirates and finds good friends in the captain and doctor. i would reccomend that anyone who loves a good book and an exciting thrill should definately read this."
+11142,2,Solid BG Router,"I bought this product to replace a solid performing Linksys WAP54A (yes 802.11a) product. I really only needed a B/G access point since I already had a fine Zoom DSL modem/router. But since the Router was cheaper than the B/G Access Point (?) I bought it. I found it fairly difficult to install when an existing router/DHCP server is on the network. But after a couple hours of IP addressing fun and switching around which device did the DHCP hand out, it was up and running. The firmware that came on the unit was v8.0.2 which seems to work just fine with NO drops (time will tell). I also noticed that the range was much improved over my 802.11a Linksys product. The unit is located in the 2nd floor office, and I can easily receive 100% signal in the far corner of the basement. I'm happy with the purchase, but Linksys could have better documentation available for router to router connections."
+11143,2,Excellent!,"I just read ""Coffee Will Make You Black"" recently and it was good. I like the characters and how they were portrayed. Carla, for example, is basically an example of a recent day teen. She does what most teens do today, smoke, have sex, etc. Jean(Stevie), who is the main character, is going through some changes with her mind, sexuality, as well as her body .(What most teens go through.) Stevie goes through a series of scenarios to help her see what her true sexuality is. From a scale of 1-10, I rate this book a 9. The book is good, I kind of didn't like the way it ended, but I would recommend anyone to read it!"
+11144,1,Absolutely horrible,"The classic Levis 505 jeans are no more. They have now been replaced by Levis 505 ""Straight Fit"" jeans. This means they don't come up nearly as high on the hips and they feel like hell when you wear them (unless you're 14 years old). Avoid at all costs if you liked the original style. Apparently the classic 505s had a tag in the inseam that said ""Regular Fit."" If you can find these in a store or on eBbay, rock on. Otherwise, I would recommend Wrangler Men's Cowboy Cut Original Fit Jeans. They feel like the old 505s and are actually a bit better anyway. Wrangler makes a better and more consistent product than Levis? Yes, it's true."
+11145,2,hilarious!,I own The 'Burbs and must say that I have almost every line memorized! It is a very fun movie and I highly recommend it. Bruce Dern is fantastic in it. Don't expect an oscar winning movie but just watch it and have fun!
+11146,2,Diana,"This gate works great! My son can pull up on it and even hang from it and it never gives way (he is 25lbs). It is noisy but this is not really an issue for us. At first it was really hard to use but after a few days I could manage one handed in the dark! My declawed cats also seem to be able to climb over somehow which is good, as they would tip other less sturdy gates over."
+11147,1,I've seen better games,The game is not very entertaining for any age group. My child whose 7 lost focus after trying a couple of the games.
+11148,2,Good Deal!,"This is my 2nd Remington SF3 electric razor. My 1st one last for about 4 years (I used it for about 3 days a week) before its screen broke, then the blade needed changing... With its price,I am completely satisfied with this razor. Before that, I had a Brun?? which costs me over $60 but it lasted only about 1year and a half then the battery started not holding charge...."
+11149,1,Soulstar - - Not Quite There Yet!,"I got the feeling when I was listening to this album that he wasn't there musically or lyrically. The majority of this album is just passé and I could take it or leave it. Forthenight is the only song on here that gets major play in my cd player, and he couldn't even give you five minutes to really get into it. The other songs sound as if he was going off into left field. Now only if he could JustgivemeawholealbumIcouldlistentoo!"
+11150,1,Philips better get a solution to their DVD recorder woes!,I have 2 DVDR985 recorders and I am having the exact same problems as some of the others in this section have mentioned. I have wasted countless dollars on DVD+R discs that I had to scratch. Philips offers many communication methods for servicing (which is great) but seem rather indifferent and clueless to the DISC ERROR and FINALIZATION error problems. I have used different brands of DVD+R discs.....so I have to believe it is the machines themselves...or possibly a bad firmware upgrade???The i Link feature is valuable to me because of my home video archive...but I have lost many DVD transfers due to the problems with the machine. I am tired of wasting time and money and I am forced to look at other possibilities.
+11151,2,Love at first sight.,"This song isn't one of the strongest songs from the Fever album.I would have liked to see Burning up released instead of this song.The best reason to buy this cd single is for the ""Can't get blue monday out of my head"" mix. It is fantastic."
+11152,1,Annie Lennox performed by Miss Piggy,"This CD is a shame, whoever is singing (I think it's Miss Piggy) is shameless about imitating Ms. Lennox, needless to say that it is just impossible. Please don't waste your money on this...."
+11153,2,Comfy but warm,"These shoes are comfy! I wear a 7 1/2 and bought an 8, fits great! I wore them for about 45 minutes in 75 degree weather and my feel were clammy after. These will be great from Fall winter and early morning yard work."
+11154,2,An Awesome Read!!!,"Eragon is an awesome read for people of all ages, ecspecially those who enjoy fantasy. Eragon has managed to hold my attention better than many fantasy books including the Lord of the Rings series. It's a fantastic story about a boy that enters the ranks of the legendary ""Dragon Riders"". I don't want to give too much away so honestly if you have a chance read Eragon it's incredible. Just one warning start early in the evening, if you don't you'll find it's well past midnight before you manage to find a good place to leave off."
+11155,1,Navitas: worst goji berries I've ever had,"Goji berries CAN be very tasty and enjoyable, however this is not how I would describe Navitas goji berries.I bought a bag once, from Amazon, and found the berries to be nearly rock hard and absolutely dry. The only good part about it was that they sorta tasted ok after chewing on them a while.If you want really, really good goji berries get Heaven Mountain brand.They cost twice as much as these, but these aren't really worth anything, in my opinion.These are the best and well worth the price:Bija Heaven Mountain Goji Berries 8-OuncesDo it right or don't do it!"
+11156,2,Wicked Nights,"This is a love and adventure story between Eric, who is a vampire, and Donna, a talk show host. Donna came to but on radio shows at an amusment park in Galveston. During her time there she and the operators of the park clash with a vengeful vampire, who blames Eric for the death of his bother. Donna is also given advice by Sparkle, a cosmic trouble-maker, and Asima, messenger of Bast, on how to attract Eric."
+11157,1,Not worth the $,"I agree with the previous reviewer. I bought this as soon as it was released, and I thought it was the film (the photo and details were not available until it was actually released). After watching it a couple times I am very disappointed. This isn't worth the bother. By the movie and a book. Skip Mitch's bouncing ball!"
+11158,2,The Simplest way to get friendly with SNMP,SNMP was something completely new for me and i was struggling to understand it reading various RFC's. Althoug they helped but it was not unless i started reading this book that SNMP seemed something really interesting to work with.Sincere thanks to Dr Feit.
+11159,2,Comfortable but thin,"Pretty good. Although they're very comfortable (esp. thru seat and thighs), the material is a bit flimsier than I'd like. If it were an ounce or two heavier, the trousers would be perfect."
+11160,2,the call of the wild,"THIS BOOK IS ABOUT A DOG WHO HAD THE EASY LIFE,BUT THEN SOMEONE KIDNAPS HIM. NOW HE IS IN ALASKA AND IS TRIANED TO BE A SLAYDOG.HE HAS TO GO THOUGH HARD BIZZARDS, TOUGH TERRAIN, AND AN OCCASIONAL BEATING, BUT IT ALL TURNS FOR THE BEST. I REALLY THOUGHT THAT WHEN I GOT THIS BOOK IT WOULD BE LAME. BUT IT ENDED UP BEING REALLY GOOD,BETTER EVEN. I EVEN READ WHITE FANG SO I WOULD RECOMEND THIS BOOK TO ANYONE WHO LOVES ADVENTURE THIS IS THE BOOK"
+11161,1,I hated it,"But I kept reading thinking it just HAD to get better. I was wrong. I think Katie Macalister needs to slow down and give more depth to her characters, more thought to her plot and quit trying to please her publishers by putting out books like a writing machine.Also, her American heroine's use of British terms in coversation was annoying. And wouldn't any real American pack a pair of jeans when they travel?"
+11162,2,"Nice, but only covers the divider","I was looking for a mat to go on both sides of the sink and also cover the middle. I did not know a mat was available for just the center, but that is exactly what this is."
+11163,2,Tamaly Maak - a musical revelation,"This is the best music that Amro Diab has produced over his career. A mix of musical styles, including spanish guitars, traditional arabic tunes and a touch of Santana is sure to suit various musical tastes. Tamaly Ma'ak is probably Amro's most interesting offering; a new musical style, slower beat than what we are used to and a much deeper set of lyrics. Personally, this CD rates very highly on my list and is very highly recommended for the new listener as well as the Amro Diab Die-hards."
+11164,2,can't wait to hear more,"Very good record. Even though this is much more polyrhythmic than the music of Silvio Rodriguez, you can tell he knows that music's lyrics well. I think the lean arrangements are what makes the music sound fresh. My only two complaints: 1) the strings are a distraction, obviously added onto already-existing arrangements that can stand on their own, and 2) the two duets are lousy...they seem forced and awkward."
+11165,1,Sonic Pet Boundary,"This will be very short, either both units were defective or these area very poor design. Both my cats would lay in front of them, I couldnot see any reaction from any of my cats. I returned them promptly andI'm not using the scat mat with some success."
+11166,2,A great overview,"This book provides a great overview of the history of the Knights Templar, both in Europe and America. The comparison of stonework on structures in Orkney with stonework on the Newport Tower is striking and adds illustrated evidence to the case the authors are making. I relied heavily on this book in researching my own novel on the subject.Cabal of The Westford Knight: Templars at the Newport TowerReaders, too, will appreciate the thorough research and quality writing in this book."
+11167,1,Red Skelton Collection,"I returned this item due to the fact that it was a duplicate gift. I bought it as a gift for my dad, but I had already purchased it previously for him. He really enjoyed my first purchase."
+11168,1,dissapointed,"I was so excited when we bought the ""best of raw"" video, but when i watched it I thoght it magorly sucked so if you want to waster your money go to buy the video!"
+11169,1,Not true to size,"I ordered size 8 for my small 3-year old (her normal size). The shoes looked really nice, but they were way too small (at least, a size smaller then expected, and probably more). I returned the shoes. Had to pay for shipping, but saved by packaging them in a padded envelope and using 1-st class mail instead of Amazon shipping (saved about $2). I would've gotten another pair, but I'm afraid it will not fit either, since it's hard to determine what size would be appropriate, and I don't want to take chances and have to ship another pair back. If you know exactly which size fits your kid, I would recommend the shoes, but if you don't, try ordering 1-2 sizes bigger than you normally would."
+11170,1,Making it shut up....,"This horrid lad - all over the tv and radio. *cries*. Cant bear it. He is a ex-boyband member (what could be worse, now really) with about as much talent as your average Joe Carew. Having to listen to most of this album while it being played in the background of a music shop. Cant I just browse for music in PEACE. And the videos? What I have seen now this 'senorita' is beyond stupidity. And have you with the 'rock your body' video scenario? Horrible, just horrible. Is he apparently the best looking lad ever? *laughs*"
+11171,2,Returned for refund,I returned the Gen 5 Station as it was no use to me because I had returned the Archos 705. I gave it 5 stars as it did what it was supposed to do. The problem I had was with the 705.
+11172,1,Does NOT fit DA3000R,"The product description is inaccurate. This key does NOT fit the DA3000R, and may not fit others listed."
+11173,2,Fifty Greatest Hawaii Music Album,"This is about the best CD that we own. It has some of the older Hawaiian music & some of the newer music. We play it all the time. Now that we are on a long vacation it is nice to have this good music with us. If you are on the fence about purchasing this, you will not be disappointed. Enjoy!!!"
+11174,2,Audiovox DVD/TV,"This is a pretty good small TV. The image is sharp, the colors bright. The only thing I wonder about is how difficult it's going to be to disconnect the cable. The TV connector turned when I tightened the cable connection and I didn't tighten it any tighter than I've ever tightened any other cable connection. Time will tell."
+11175,1,Not good for REAL beginners,This book is totally useless to someone who doesn't already know server basics.
+11176,2,Marpac Dohm - DS Dual Spped Sound Conditioner,My wife and I use this product to shut out sound from barking dogs and rude neighbors. Works great.We would definitely purchase again.
+11177,2,Great hard core punk band,"The Gotohells are a great punk band. I first heard them on the cd, ""five years on the streets,"" since then I have been a huge fan. They have so much energy and I would recomend this cd for anyone punk fan."
+11178,2,Excellent movie to follow the series.,This movie does an excellent job at following up with loose ends left by the series. Now they just need to get up off their butts and make more like this.
+11179,2,oh yeah,"this is one of those albums with atmosphere. listen to the whole thing through, you can hear oscar peterson's fingers fingers muscling the keys, hear the talking, the glasses, the musicians communicating among themselves. really great jazz piano. this moves, it's alive!"
+11180,1,Crashes constantly and I lose the lesson--Do Not Buy it!,I bought the top of the line version for $39 and am extremelydisappointed. The nusance crash and it's reboot of my systemmakes this product worthless. Do not buy it!
+11181,1,The people who made this movie will burn in hell,"Let's be honest here. It's not a good film. Number one, the special effects are good, so I won't argue with that. But dragging my entrails across THREE counties to see this peice of garbage was the most pitiful experience of my life. Cliches everywhere I look, and that ending scene where she proclaims her love for reeves and that he must be ""the one"" if she loves him actuly made me cry, becuase at that point I was so in shock that paid full ticket price to see this I had to shed a few(hundred) tears."
+11182,1,GHASTLY!!!,"My word, what a horrible album. I have been a Heep fan for 40+ years and have recently been adding to my library the albums I didn't have since I stopped following the band in the mid-70s. This is awful. You don't need a list of the songs printed because on every tune they repeat the title 73 times. When they lost Ken Hensley they lost their sound. The keyboards sound like something you would buy at a department store. This CD is so bad, they actually muck up a cover of the great song ""Hold Your Head Up,"" and destroy ""Look At Yourself"" on a live version tossed on to the end of the album. Truly pathetic AND bathetic."
+11183,2,Awesomw,"A heart wrenching story of a young immigrant lady that had to overcome cancer and physical/mental abuse in marriage. Through sheer determination, she conquered these obstacles, coupled with a corrupt legal system of a ""good boy"" network. Await the next Eva Rennert book."
+11184,2,Get it before it's gone,"If you don't have this, get it now while you can! You won't be sorry. Beautiful and relaxing music that will brighten your day."
+11185,1,Getting Suckered,"Yeah the game looks all nice and neat now in the concept stage,but don't forget in last sims you have to add additional versions over and over again nor to have all the stuff and don't for get the downloads on the web page. In the end it's overly priced to buy as soon as it comes out. Don't you think EA Games is going to make additions after the fact again?? Consider waiting until the first 3 or 4 expansions for sims2 come out before buying it and getting suckered again with lower prices later."
+11186,1,Are they kidding?,"Who puts out a BluRay and records the audio in stereo these days?! Man, their 1982 release was even Dolby Digital surround! Baffling."
+11187,2,Definately increases pressure,This shower attachment does increase the pressure and it is almost too much pressure if you have normal to high pressure in your house. The attachment that allows you to control how much water flows is very useful. Works as advertised.
+11188,2,Best Stargate series so far,I was surprised at how much I ended up liking this show. It was actually a really funny show with dialogue that felt real and believable. The special effects were awesome. I think the only reason this show didn't do well is that the main character Dr Rush was often cranky and not very likeable. However I felt his complexities added a lot of depth to the show and made it quite interesting to watch.
+11189,1,1202F-8 Made in China,"I received my new Starrett 1202 and to my suprise the box was labeled ""Made in China."" I called Starrett because I was not sure if this was a knock off or what. They told me this tool is made in China and they have no comperable U.S. made product."
+11190,2,TRUE ROCK!,"This album would be totally perfect if it had the song ""Drown"" from the sound track ""Singles"" as the final number. However, after you finish listening to this album that will be the last thing on your mind. This album was done long before old Corgy went bald and turned into a hyper-goth-phyco-rock star. He may be a nice guy but he sure lost what ever it was that created this album. Which should be placed on the shelve or in the cd player right next to Led-Zep, Floyd, or any other essential rock classic you might have."
+11191,2,PERFECT WATER SHOE!,Love these shoes! I can tell they are super comfortable for my daughter to run around in the sprinklers in. She is a size 4.5 and the size (s) fit her perfectly. The drawstring at the top allows you to adjust if slightly big. Great price for a quality water shoe. Don't hesitate!
+11192,1,Shame,"It's a real shame that George Lucas doesn't care enough about his fans to at least offer a release of the un-modified originals. Part of the fun of those movies was that they DIDN'T look perfect and that they DIDN'T have a CGI Jabba the Hutt. I can't believe some of the things I've heard that Lucas changed in these movies. I understand that George Lucas has the right to do what he wants to his films as they are his creation. But I also have the right to make sure that he never sees another cent of my money as long as he's being so selfish. Anyway...I heard that some REALLY BAD people *wink* somewhere on the evil Internet made DVD's out of recordings from the laserdisc releases of the films. I also heard from a ""friend"" that the quality is actually pretty good.One other funny thing I'd like to point out is that a lot of people's favorite Star Wars film seems to be The Empire Strikes Back. Go to www.imdb.com and check who directed it. It wasn't George Lucas."
+11193,2,Great read if you love Batman,"Good story start to finish, with a very gripping and intense cast of characters. Batman no man's land is a wonderful read for anybody interested not only in batman but also just for a good book to read."
+11194,2,Everything but Fur Elise,"Let's face it. Beethoven's bagatelles are not the brooding, electric show-pieces as are his sonotas. They are 180 degrees different: delightfully light-hearted and free-spirited. They are so delicate that, except for the technique, you wouldn't think they sprung from the agitated mind of Beethoven. The lovely, but ubiquitous, Fur Elise is not among this set. That's fine with me, but if you like the playful, tender style of Fur Elise, then the 26 pieces found here will be right up your alley. Telarc has always been exceptional when capturing the piano on disc. O'conor's light touch gives the bagatelles the appropriate weight and he breezes through them like the wind through the leaves. This collection is one of my favorite piano recordings. Rather like champagne bubbles, these pieces gently tickle your senses."
+11195,1,UP is LOUSY!,"Having been a fan of Peter's previous works, I was so excited for his new long long long awaited new cd and after listening....not one track is decent. His vocals sound weak, on DARKNESS he sounds like he is rapping....the cd is a trainwreck of every style possible. I am so dissapointed in waiting so long and having him come back a) with a cd of lousy material and b) only 10 tracks on it!Better luck next time...AVOID THIS CD!"
+11196,2,In the Gravest Extreme: The Role of the Firearm in Personal Protection,"Great book. Factual, a must read for anyone even thinking of carrying a gun. It covers a multitude of info from the basics to the extreme."
+11197,2,good compilation,there are some real cool party cuts on here for the occasion and these songs actual blend real well through the various time periods and compliment one another. i enjoyed the songs picked.
+11198,2,Read of a Lifetime,"I discovered this book (and thus, L'Engle) in 5th grade and have read this tale every year since--I am now 27. Madeleine L'Engle is my all time favorite author--a genius at intelligently combining fantasy, science and every-day life into a remarkable and memorable story. She is, perhaps, the most talented writier of our lifetime. One book will make you hooked for life. The entire trilogy is a must have in your hardcover collection."
+11199,2,Stress relief,"This game is almost more fun for grown-ups. I love the macabre premise. If you don't have many players, you can deal some cards face down and people play without knowing all their identities."
+11200,2,Great Sound Improvement,"This product made my Ipod a real music center when conected to my Nakamichi Amp.I used to conect the Ipod to the amp through the earphone connection and I hated the sound, but once I started conecting the Ipod with the Nyko Stereo Link, everything changes.It is a great sound improvement.A must!"
+11201,1,No Chemistry! No Comedy!,"I saw this movie today and it was bad. Really bad. There were at least twenty people in the the theater and I heard maybe three or four small laughs. The parts that tried to be funny were the parts from the commercials so we already knew what was going to happen. I don't know why Jennifer Aniston is so famous. She's hot, but she has no personality. I can't think of one good movie she's done. And Gerard Butler? He shouldn't be in romantic comedies. They all suck. He curls his mouth sideways trying to lose the scottish accent and it sounds ridiculous. He is much better in action movies. I am warning you. STAY AWAY FROM THIS DVD. IF YOU WATCH IT, YOU WILL BE SORRY. If anything, rent it."
+11202,2,the rock,"some years ago i bought a 3 disc set of the rock but felt disappointed... and then i saw this one expecting the exact same thing. but its not. the first disc has a documentary about the rock from when he was young to wrestle mania and a preview to john cena vs the rock.the 2nd disc had his debut at survivor series. a raw match vs triple h, ladder match vs triple h, thriple threat match vs mankkind and ken shamrock. the infamous i quit match vs mankind and he no hold barred match at backlash in 99 when shane mcmahan was ref.disc 3vs triple h vs kurt angle where angle actually had a concusion during the begging of the match and still finished it. tag team with undertaker vs edge and christian, vs ric flair, vs brock lesnar , vs hulk hogan the rock returns to raw, the rock concert 2, and wrestlemania 2011"
+11203,2,Students love dogs.,"I used this both as an art teacher and as a reading teacher. Boys and gilrs love to draw animals. In art, they need to really see and notice detail, and they have to persevere until they get it right. In reading, they have to do the art skills, and follow directions. Since it's non-fiction, it fits in with today's education trends. Kids love to draw whether they're in art class or reading class, and how special is it to be able to use this as a reading teacher? Your male students will love you."
+11204,2,cute and funny!,I've read most of this book so far and it would have been great to have when I was pregnant. My baby is almost 10 months old now and there is still info in there that was useful but alot of it was what I needed to know earlier. I loved her style of humor and the way she tells it like it is!
+11205,2,Good quick read,"Not as awsome at L. Hamilton's Anite Blakes, but a nice readI am looking forward to reading the others in the series to see how Sookie progresses. Not as simple as I first thought she was. Likeing the character mix, again this appears after book 1 to be a good quick and fun read!"
+11206,2,If I could get just ONE magazine...,"House Beautiful would be the one magazine I would get if I could only get one. The professional decorating advice on color, fabrics, furniture, and new trends is invaluable. It is reader friendly, and a visual feast for the eyes every month - the photography is excellent. There are very few issues that I recycle, and those I do are often missing several pages that I have torn out to save."
+11207,1,Gold overlay is cheap,"While these earrings are pretty, the ""gold"" overlay wore off after two wearing. This is JUST wearing during the day, not sleeping with them on or showering. If you want a one-wear earring, this is fine. If you want something that shows quality AND lasts, keep looking."
+11208,1,Ho-hum bios make one-great book run-of-the-mill,"There is a voluminous amount of sources for information on fantasy league baseball available to fans, especially with the advent of the Internet. What used to set Rotisserie League Baseball apart from the rest was the irreverent, witty bios on the players. It was the closest thing to laugh-out-loud literature one could find on the National Pastime.Alas, someone must have approached the authors and told them that the book needed to be more serious in light of previously said sources. The result is a bland concoction of stale statistics and rookie projections. Given the fact that a book needs more time to publish than does a magazine, it is rendered irrelevant.Said to say, I believe I've purchased my last edition of Rotisserie League Baseball."
+11209,1,Piece of Crap,"Purchased this reel for occasional use in a pole barn. We hung it from the ceiling. After about the 10th pull over a 6 month period, the internal plastic broke. We took the cover off of it to see if it could be repaired. Everything except for the sring is plastic. The spring pulled loose out of the plastic mount. The internals are plastic welded so it is can not be serviced. Basically I spent over $[...] on an extension cord I could have purchased for $[...]. The label on the reel cover stated for light duty use only. It should have said not for actual use."
+11210,2,Play it loud,"I'm a geezer who saw Husker Du perform a couple of times, including right around the release of Zen Arcade. They were a powerful band, and a number of the songs off Zen Arcade were epic live. ""Something I Learned Today,"" ""Pink Turns to Blue,"" ""Never Talking to You Again,"" ""Broken Home, Broken Heart,""--all fantastic songs that should be played at extreme volume. Zen Arcade does suffer from poor recording quality (hey, they were on a seriously limited budget!) and some tracks are just too abrasive and/or hastily composed. I don't know if it really lives up to its reputation as the White Album of the '80s, but it's a great record nonetheless."
+11211,2,Frieling Stainless Insulated French Press,"We have been using a different French Press and always disappointed in how remainder of coffee cools off. The Frieling French Press works great! Plunger feels secure and keeps grounds from floating about. Taste of coffee is spectacular - wonderfully rich flavor. By the way, remaining coffee in pot stays hot for about another hour at most -- long enough to keep us happy."
+11212,1,Just ok,This not a strong scent. I mean you can barely smell it. I would like more if the scent lasted longer than 5 mins.
+11213,1,Horrible narration,"The narration is horrible, sounds like it was made for elementary school children to watch in class. Stick to Planet Earth."
+11214,1,HATED IT!,"The cassette player didn't work properly: it sounded as if the speaker were on drugs. Sloooooow . If i had kept the receipt, i would have returned it, but dumb me, i tossed it. And the cassette player. A waste of $7 + shipping."
+11215,1,What a disapointment!,"I was really looking forward to this newest edition from Ms Laurens, and I am still shaking my head over just how awful it is! All the way through I felt as though I were in a parallel universe where all the familiar characters were poor imagages of other novels. There was nothing to make you like the hero or the heroine... nothing to connect them to the reader or to each other. Who was Dillon? Who was Pris? What were their big secrets? Who cares? The mystery didn't last through the middle of the book, the romance that we expect never even started (not, we all know, the same as sex). Just poorly written and inexcuseable from an author like Stephanie Laurens."
+11216,2,PERFECT!,"What a great CD! Completely takes the work out of putting together your own ceremony CD. We aren't having live musicians play so this suits our needs perfectly! The CD booklet tells you when each song would be appropriate (precessional, recessional, interludes, etc.)and everything! The music is your classic wedding music, nothing funky. I believe ALL the songs are instrumentals."
+11217,1,What a piece of SH*T,"Are you kidding me?!! NAS sold out as a rapper, appearing with Puff Daddy. What a joke he is. I have no respect for him anymore. DMX has no lyrical ability and he never did. His music is boring,and is definetly not stimulating. Hype Williams should stick to making music videos because he has no capacity for a story. The funny thing is, the lack of ability that these guys have musically is doubled when it comes to the film. Nas and Dmx ARE TERRIBLE ACTORS."
+11218,2,canning cook book,The recipes are large quantities. So they will last longer. Just got into canning this year and can't wait to try the recipes out.
+11219,2,Good introduction to family systems applied to congregations,"The latest book to apply family systems to the congregation is Healthy Congregations, by Peter Steinke, a student of the late Rabbi Edwin Friedman. Steinke approaches his subject positively - how do healthy congregations behave?Congregational health begins with mature, self-differentiated leaders. Leaders in an anxious system (as all systems are, from time to time) must avoid becoming overly concerned with solving others' problems or assuaging their anxiety. Anyone who has served in congregational leadership knows how difficult this can be. Steinke holds out the faith that leaders who model good immune functioning can in time be the ""salvation"" of their congregations.Steinke's account of congregational maladies ring true, and his prescriptions are pragmatic. Healthy Congregations is a worthy sequel to Steinke's previous Alban volume, How Your Congregational Family Works.Dan Hotchkiss, senior consultant for the Alban Institute"
+11220,2,It's Cooking Time,"If you are looking for a super challenge go else where. I loved this game for the fact that it was just simple cooking fun. You get to chop, slice, dice, mix and many other cooking functions. Doesn't teach you how to actually cook; this is just a ddr version of cooking basically. Once you get the hang of doing each function it makes game play a lot smoother. Also, it was neat that they give you the option mid-cooking a recipe whether you want to subsitute or add other items to make a whole other dish. The practice option came in handy for some of the less simple functions. Some of the tasks you do are timed while others you finish when you finish."
+11221,2,Will and Grace Season 4,"Well, i LOVE will and grace, this season was really great. I loved it and i plan to buy all past and upcomming seasons. I'm not gonna sit here and give you all the episodes and a discription, because other people will do that. I actually have a life. :) Anyway the point is that this is a very solid investment. When i first got it i watched it at least once a day for like 2 weeks. So its good. :)"
+11222,1,The Devil Is In The Premise And The Prose,"This book barely and rarely transcends silly. It is a sad commentary about the psyche and intellect of this country that a book like this is a best seller. That it's also an Oprah recommendation is equally defining. You might ask why I read this book, or read it through. It was assigned as a topic by a discussion group my wife and I belong to. Otherwise, had I started it for whatever reason, I would have put it down after a page or two. (I would love to know if Oprah actually read this pedestrian piece of drivel before putting it on her list.)"
+11223,2,Great!,I bought this owl for my 1 year old son. He loves the owls at the zoo. I feel safe letting him play with it. It is very cute!
+11224,2,Great reissue,"These Alexis Korner reissues are are quite magnificent. The title of the collection ""The Godfather of British Blues"" tells you some of what to expect but not everything.The original recordings (the first 12 tracks) date from 1963 and although there is a lot of blues on here the list of musicians should tell you that you're going to hear more than just a set of standard blues tunes. As well Korner theres Dick Heckstall-Smith Johnny Parker, Art Theman and Phil Seaman. So there is a quite a big Jazz influence as well. Evidence of this Jazz influence is there from the first track 'Blue Mink', which was inspired by Thelonius Monk's 'Blue Monk'. This shouldn't put you off though, as overall this is a marvellous set of mainly blues inspired tunes.The six bonus tracks are an interesting mix, which overall are probably slightly more commercial than the main album itself."
+11225,2,The best destroyer simulation!,"I have read other reviews on this game and I think it deserves better ratings than it has received. It is a beautiful game as far as graphics are concerned. Ubi soft is a great software producer and they should really consider updating this game so it can run on Windows XP and other advanced systems. If you have Windows 95 or 98, this game will generally satisfy your curiosity about World War 2 destroyers. Other reviewers assert there are some glitches in the game. While that may be true, all games have some weakness. I think this game is worth buying. I wish it could run on my advanced operating system. I would be playing it and enjoying it thoroughly if I could. The historical accuracy of the game is educational and exciting. Someday maybe Ubi soft will come out with a modernized version. You may also wish to consider these:Silent Hunter III (DVD-ROM)andSilent Hunter 4 : Wolves of the Pacific (PC-DVD). Submarines are the focus but destroyers are out there!"
+11226,1,Not at all inspiring,"Why my bookclub loved this book and author is beyond me... I had to work to get through it. Can't even say it was disturbing, because it couldn't capture my interest at all."
+11227,2,Good as the rest,This battery is cheaper than most with comperable features. This is my second purchase of this battery. Both are holding a charge well and I can't tell the difference between these CTA batteries and the CGA type that came with my Panasonic TZ-5 Lumix camera. The only difference seems to be the price--this one is less than half the price of the Panasonic version.
+11228,2,Life changing,"Among the many books of this type that I have read over the years, this bookhas altered my perception in the most simple and practical way.It addresses the true root of all suffering in my life: my thinking.Inspiring and life changing, I recommend this book to anyone truly interestedin living a trouble free existed."
+11229,1,Dissapointed in Amazon - NOT ORIGINAL DISC!,"CAUTION - THIS IS NOT AN ORIGINAL DISC! They send you a crappy loooking case (not original one) there is no information in the disc booklet (other than a song list), and the CD is a CDR. No 1/2 naked shot of Herbie on the cover! BOOOOOOOO to Amazon!The music is great - Amazon sales and disclosure - not so much."
+11230,1,Does not stack up to others,"I recently purchased this Coleman Xtreme 50 qt on wheels. it has been just fine for keeping the beer cold for several hours, however, the real test came when I went to the beach last week. We had 3 coolers of which one was my Coleman Xtreme. The Coleman went head to head with a 5-day Igloo and a 5-day Rubbermaid and by an enormous margin, the Coleman lost. both 5-day coolers had plenty of ice cubes remaining to keep drinks cold even after 3 full days, whereas the Coleman was down to almost water after 24 hours. I was very disappointed. I'll likely move to an Igloo or Rubbermaid in the future."
+11231,2,Good Stuff!,"Color Me Badd's debut album after the smash single, I wanna sex u up, this has a lot of songs that you'll be humming in your mind. All for love, I ador mi amor, thinking back are all great songs. My first album ever, one of my favourites!"
+11232,2,Great Movie,Love the Sherlock Holmes series with Robert Jr and Jude playing the roles. I love the slow motion sequences and the wit used for these movies.
+11233,2,OEM HP toner works!,"I always pay a little extra for OEM HP toners, I don't want any hassles with aftermarket stuff. As expected this toner has my HP2600n back in business for more color printing!"
+11234,2,Great Watch!,This watch has a high quality look and feel. Keeps great time. It exceeded my expectations.
+11235,2,Must have!,"I have received many compliments (especially frm guys) while wearing this fragrance. I have paid much more 4 other products that people don't even notice much less compliment. 4 D price, I had to stock up!"
+11236,1,This is useless,"I bought this to help my son who is having trouble in Latin at school, although I was a little skeptical of the title ""Talk Now."" I should have trusted my reservations. This is just a cheaply created imitation of language immersion programs; the first two practice phrases include the words ""beer"" and ""telephone."" No grammar; no conjugations or declensions; no vocabulary lists. This is of NO use to a Latin student; I can't imagine who it could be used by. Even spoken Latin is primarily liturgical."
+11237,1,Cashed in the fags,I saw the Surgery impalement on MTV.com yeah YOU read right MTV my god how low has this band gone i`m so discuted i sold all their slow and boring albums f ck em what a embarressment to death metal.Yes people the truth hurts suffocation are now a wimpy MAINSTREAM band on MTV i wouldn`t be surprised if they wear skirs as well.People ditch these traders and stick with Cryptopsy LORD WORM has returned and their new album is gonna be a screamer.
+11238,2,Lens rear cap,"I bought this for my Canon DSLR so I can keep the dust out of my camera. Fits perfect. Price is excellent. I only gave it a four start because it is a generic cap and does not have the Canon label on it like the ad portrays. Yeah Iam a label whore. After spending lots of cash for my equipment, I want them all to match up. Dont YOU?"
+11239,1,short battery life,"bought this product and has about 10 minute life on one charge, not very reliable when you need light, will not buy another brinkman. not recommened."
+11240,2,"The return of a classic, polished and revamped","The long awaited return of the Blake Babies was definitely worth the wait. This album is a prime example of excellent music that fortunately won't be airing on MTV. The Blake Babies split in the early 90's and each member now returns polished with even more to add to the indie-rock enigma. The vocals are astounding. Juliana Hatfield has risen far above the child-voiced angst she is known for. Her voice has deepened incredibly, giving her a beautiful sound and quite a range. John Stromm sounds great on the album and who knew Freda Love Smith could sing so well. The album simply rocks. The Blake Babies charm flows through each track yet the sound is much more professional and mainstream, yet remarkably unique. A must buy! If you've never heard of the Blake Babies, one listen is all it takes. For the Juliana Hatfield fan, this is Juliana at her best."
+11241,1,NO GOOD,"These things are junk. I tried both ways, with the battery power, and with the usb power and they distort at the lowest audible volume. Don't waste you money and time in packaging them up to send back!"
+11242,2,taste,i love the taste just make sure u drink it soon after you mix it as far as the actual weight gainer working i haven't used it much because of health reasons but plan to use it in the future
+11243,2,Wonderful Film,"This is a real gem of a movie. The story line is simple - Ali loses his sister's only pair of shoes, and so to avoid their father's wrath, Ali and his sister share a single pair of shoes while scheming to get her a new pair. The movie is at times funny, but often tragic in its portrayal of a poor family trying to make it in Tehran's poor suburbs.Excellent film making and excellent acting by the two child stars. This film won every award under the sun, and deservedly so."
+11244,1,didnt work,I gotthis because I was having a nitir problem after cleaning the gravel with the gravel vav it made my water very cloudy have been working for 2 weeks trying to fix the water after using this
+11245,1,Keylock Man,I reveived the book but when I got it the back cover was torn and the outside was not in very good condition. I cant say that I will order any more books from this seller.
+11246,2,Another great movie to bring back great memories,"Another fantastic movie that came around at a time when this kind of thing was a lot more possible in peoples' imagination than it is nowadays.Great actors, great movie. I'll be watching this one probably a few times a year just because it's that good (so much better than the garbage coming out of Hollywood for the last decade!)."
+11247,1,"Good tool, poor blades","The Fein multimaster is a great tool for specialty cutting jobs, provided only cutting soft materials and limited use. I have had the same experience as other users. The tool operates much like (and could be substituted for) a Stryker surgical cast saw. However, the steel blades are expensive for their limited life. The carbide and diamond blades are better.This Fein tool has enabled a few jobs not possible with other tools, or saved considerable labor for some jobs (as opposed to the usual methods).But don't expect it to be a workhorse because of the limited life and special cut design of the steel blades. I have done limited blade sharpening touch-up using brasselerusa.com serrated diamond saw blades, but this is specialized/expensive equipment most tool users don't have. Sharpening would require very specialized sharpening equipment which apparently only Fein has at their factory. It is so sad that they do not offer blades make from more durable materials."
+11248,1,Average for Ozzy,I've always liked Ozzy with or without Black Sabbath.No more tears has mostly ok songs but few stand out as excellent. Mr. Tinkertrain has strange lyrics but is probably the best song on the cd. Hellraiser is a motorhead song featured at the end of Hellraiser 3 and Ozzy's version of it is pretty good. Zombie stomp is interesting and cool sounding. Desire is melodic.The complaints are that No more tears has a weak mixing and mastering production. It doesn't have that rich and resonating heavy sound you hear in a lot of good sounding metal cds. Also you can also tell this was recorded when Ozzy wasn't at his prime. His voice sounds a little bit strained and shot. Zack is great guitarist but he doesn't get to show off his skills too much or too often on this cd. There are also too many cornball ballads on this. .I give no more tears a C+
+11249,1,Begginers: save your money!!!,"This book shows you what Delphi can do. It doesn't show you how you can do it!!. If you want to learn Delphi or the database environment you need other book (I'M still locking for one).Finally, I beg your pardon for the one star score. I couldn't find how to put -5 stars!!!"
+11250,2,"Ok, but wouldn't buy again","These are just OK. My last headphones had a sound and mic control on the cord, but these don't. Also, the plugs on the end are not color coordinated like other products to distinguish between mic and speakers. Usually the mic color is pink like the pink outlet on the back of my CPU. The colors on the ends of these headphones are gray (usually pink) for mic and black for headphones (usually green). Not a big deal, but when there is low lighting, it's difficult to see those little icons on the plugs.Sound is not as good as my last headphones no matter what I do in the settings."
+11251,1,Not worth what I paid,"I have used Manic Panic before with great results, but this was disastrous. I bleached my hair before, just as is recommended, and when I applied the color it looked nice, a very vibrant pretty color orange. After 1 day, however, it faded to a horrible highlighter yellow. I re-dyed it three times, and each time it faded to highlighter, day-glow yellow within a day. It was awful. I even rebleached and tried again, with the same results. Do not purchase this color. I had to dye my whole head brown again to cover up this mess."
+11252,1,The Worse,"I have this Lion King V smile Smartridge my four year old Daughter it doesn't keep her interest at all. It's to slow and it has nothing to do but jump over logs there's no animals like in the movie, the harder level is just the same as the easy version I wish I could get my money back, future purchaser the game that comes with it is great that is the best one for your little ones to grow with.Signed Take my advise Please"
+11253,2,Irwin 24'' magnetic level with earth magnets,The level has a very strong it is great for setting metal door frams & metal stud framing you can beat on your work and it don't fall off.
+11254,1,Crappiest Printer Ever!,Long time Epson user. This is it. I'm moving on never again. I was disappointed in the last one but gave Epson another shot. Worst thing about this printer is the paper handling. It has two functions 1. crooked or 2. empty (when it is not).
+11255,1,THIS CD SUCKX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!,"I WAS LISTENING TO THIS CD AT MY FRIENDS HOUSE, AND IT REALLY SUCKED!!!!! IF SOMEONE IS ITNERESTED IN BUYING THIS, DON'T, IT'S A WATSE OF YOUR MONEY!!!!!!!"
+11256,1,Boring and frustrating,"As with the first two installments, this RE episode is boring after a few minutes. You have to be a little girl to be scared by this game! The biggest sin is the high difficulty level. Not worth your money."
+11257,2,Superbly artistic in both writing style and photography,"Galen's book offers the novice and experienced photographer inspiration and ""common-sense"" advice about observing our world. He articulately describes how he does not merely use his view finder to see, but how he becomes involved in his subject. I have seldom read such a superbly crafted book."
+11258,2,Exciting!,"An excellent portrayal of intelligence and cunning by Sean Connery. The movie is both exciting and thought provoking, very entertaining."
+11259,2,A must have!,"This is some thing I would tell everyone is a must have in our audio library. No matter your age or walk of life, there is something in the teachings for everyone."
+11260,1,Left Behind: The Movie,"I was sooo looking forward to this, but when it came out, I was very disapointed. The books are really exciting and I didn't find that same quality with the movie. I had pictured the characters quite differently than in the movie and I didn't like the changes they made to the storyline. I think if you never read the series, it might be good, but once you've read the books, it's like someone has changed the members of your family! I have all of the audio tapes in the drama series and they are totally awesome! I guess I'll keep listening to them and skip the videos."
+11261,2,helped me confront my own racism,"I'm one of those people who was so bored in high school history class that I never took another history class willingly, although I went on to earn a masters (in another subject, obviously!) But I couldn't put this book down.This book has the power to create more love and understanding in the world. If you hear of a catastrophe in a third world country and take it less seriously than if it were here in the US -- as if they love their children any less, want peace, health and happiness any less -- you are racist. Have the humility to confront it and change it. The world will be a better place for it."
+11262,1,disappointed,"We just bought a ping-pong table and needed some racquets quick. I picked these because the price was right & the reviews were great. We played for a few minutes with them the day they arrived. The NEXT day, my son pointed out that one of the layers of wood was already peeling back from from one of the racquets.I do agree with the other reviewer that stated the racquets are heavy. If they weren't coming apart, I'd say they were a nice racquet for the price."
+11263,2,Perfect size to fit in my Fluval C2,"I was concerned that this would be too large to fit in the chemical basket but it fits easily, with some room to spare for extra bio media. My tank water is crystal clear so far and water testing shows that it's working great!"
+11264,2,Another solid Cardigans album,"The sound of the Cardigans changes after their album, Gran Turismo. The first three (Emmerdale, Life, FIrst Band on the Moon) are glorious candy pop with dark lyrical undertones. Gran Turismo is rougher around the edges and Long Gone Before Daylight is more country. Super Extra Gravity strikes me as a blend of GT and Long Gone -- musically more like GT while lyrically continuing some themes in Long Gone.For me, the album's highlight is ""I Need Some Fine Wine"". Perhaps this is the Cardigans' finest song ever written -- there is no fat on this lean mean pop machine."
+11265,2,Wonderful!,"This is a great addition to any collection. I was so happy to see that Agnes Poetry had put together a cd with all of their greatest songs. If you haven't heard of Agnes Poetry before, download the free mp3's that are offered, then decide about the album.Some of the older songs are really great and heartfelt, although the newer music is great as well. In the newer songs you can really hear the band developing their style and talents and making even better music than before. That is saying a lot as their first works are already wonderful!This is truly a band who deserved to be ""discovered""! They have broken up, but Rannoch and Randon are making music under the name of Adom9. So, get this album while you can!"
+11266,1,A shocker!!,"My 86 yr old Mother loved Mario and watched his movies on a regular basis. She recently asked me to get her a book about his life. So this is the one I ordered. To make a long story short...she returned the book to me along with ALL her dvd's of his movies!!! She was shocked to read about what kind of a man he was. To put it all in a nutshell he ONLY wanted virgins...he wanted to always be the ""first"". I had NO interest in the man so I threw out the book along with the dvds. Nothing against the author...it's Mario that my mother no longer likes!!"
+11267,1,Horrible History,"Other than the fact that Marcus Brutus was a generation younger, rumored to be Caesar's son and came from a family of wealth and mobility, him being Caesar's boyhood friend made absolutely no sense whatsoever. I was going to suggest that my 15 year old read this as an historical novel but forget it. Even children's books on this subject matter reveal these gross errors in history. Where will Caesar's nephew Octavius come from when Caesar has no sibling? Another stupid error."
+11268,2,Fun but noisy,"These are really fun, and they fly super high. Only surprise for me was that they make a high-pitched squeeling noise when they're flying. This is no problem outside. But a bit noisy inside if you aren't expecting it.Good quality, last a while and the pump works great."
+11269,2,Plucked from the Fire,"I am so excited about Plucked from the Fire. I have already recommended it to several people. This book has inspired me beyond what I can explain in words. Cheers to Bill and Stanley for the wonderful way they layed out this book and for sharing such an amazing story. It's an absolute ""must read""! Whoever reads it will be blessed. blessed."
+11270,2,a captivating saga of yet another victimized woman's life,"The title of this book threw me off. But when I read the synopsis, I was delightfully surprised to learn that it centered around a terribly isolated and victimized woman named Eden. If you want to sympathize and even emphathize with all the trials and tribulations of an oppressed female character, and yet simultaneously delve into the superficial world of modeling and the upper crust society in general, then I highly suggest this book. You'll find yourself becoming engrossed with all the unpredictable twists and turns. You'll definitely root for the underdog and find yourself abhoring the antagonists.Trust me, you will not be disappointed."
+11271,1,Worst experience ever --- do not buy this scanner,"In 30 years of dealing with electronics, this was my personal low point for an unsatisfactory experience. I purchased this new, and I spent parts of three days trying to get it to work and it never did. I subsequently came across another review posted here that refers to a loose USB connection on the back of the scanner and believe that is what I experienced. I returned it for a refund as quickly as I could and purchased an Epson Perfection 1240U, an absolute 5-star experience."
+11272,1,I didn't Like it.,This pen doesn't shock at all and the battery weres out. Also it is very low quality. I do not recommend this.
+11273,2,Perfect For the Future Chemist or Science Teacher!,"If ever someone needs to be cheered up, or if you're just in the mood for some high-time bragging rights, this book is the one you should buy! With some really great tricks and good information, I believe practically anyone could enjoy it! And if you're in need for a present for your favorite future chemist or scientist, this book will definitely kick them off! :) A great book!:)"
+11274,1,Bring Out Your Dead T-Shirt,Ordered a medium. Wasn't even close to that size. Had to reorder a large so that the recipient would be able to wash and dry it without fear that it would be a size small after the first trip through the laundry. Wasn't worth the extra postage on top of the original shipping charges to send it back.
+11275,1,Yeah Smart!,"This thing is so smart that it doesn't work because it's so busy looking and feeling like a nice product. It's very disheartening because this is such a smart idea. I've tried it on the factory cassette player on an Acura MDX 2005, VW Passat Sedan 2004, and VW Passat Wagon 2002 using my iPod nano 4GB and my wife's iPod-4G 20GB. I get the same result everywhere, the SmartDeck just confuses the heck out of the cassette player and gets automatically ejected. Griffin ought to be ashamed of themselves after releasing years of quality products. I officially flunk this product and demand that it be sent back to school for remedial product design (for dummies)."
+11276,1,90 minutes of dreck...,It is becoming clear that Kevin James' humor does not translate to the big screen. I have every season of King of Queens and i think it is one of the top 10 tv shows of all time but i have a feeling i will be begging for this 90 minutes back at the end of my life. How on earth Nick Backay and Kevin James found this funny is beyond me. On a positive note i think that the 10 and under and the 70 and over crowd might enjoy this trainwreck. 0 stars.
+11277,1,Oh Great Another Basketball Game!,"Hey really, how many basketball, football and baseball games are we going to have in the X-box format? If you haven't found one you like yet, try getting a REAL basketball and head down to the court for awhile. The electronic game industry really should get back to being innovative and lets explore some new venues. This stuff is really stale and I'm hard pressed to imagine who even buys it."
+11278,2,This is the one to get,"If you are in the market for wooden food, this is the ticket. Our daughter was gifted the set that allows you to ""cut"" the veggies and fruit which all the pieces get lost immediately- under couches, under shoe racks, you get the idea. Mess. But this one- perfect! Good sized items which won't roll all over the house or become cat toys. Easy to determine what each item is, and the variety is perfect: milk carton, cheese, fish, meat, bread, etc. The perfect wooden food for a play kitchen."
+11279,1,Does not hold up outside,Today we had to take down this flag after a little over two months of use. It completely split down the middle and was two seperate flags. This is definitly not a high grade outside flag.
+11280,2,Local Talent,Loni Rose is a very talented local artist in the Seattle area. She not only writes her own music but can sing and play the guitar. Her style is unique and her voice is wonderful.
+11281,1,unable to see clearly,"I received this VHS and put it in my player, and I could barely see it. It was incredibly fuzzy--very poor quality. I didn't bother to return it since it was just a dollar, but I can't use it. I was really disappointed."
+11282,1,Boring!,"The only good thing about this DVD is the music. I really wanted to like it, as I do a lot of Yoga and Pilates and I wanted to incorporate some dance moves in my workouts for fun, but I found it to be very boring and repetitious, in spite of finally learning the dance moves and being able to actually follow her and synchronize with her. You just jump around like an Easter Bunny to very upbeat music to get your heart rate up, something you can accomplish for free with a jumping rope.I gave up on this DVD as I got bored fast. I found that Cindy Crawford work-out DVD's , as old as they are, to be way more fun than Tracy's DVD's. I'm so mad I bought into all the hoopla surrounding Tracy Anderson and wasted my money on this DVD! And it is not cheap either!"
+11283,1,Did not work with Traktor LE software,I got this over a year ago in hope of being able to make my own mixes. I could never get it to work right. The audio would always play with a crackle or feedback sound coming out of the speakers. I configured my audio inputs and outputs several different ways and could not solve the problem. I then emailed Numark and NEVER got a response. Finally downloaded the 20 day trial version of the CUE software and worked just fine but now I have to spend $250 or more to by the software. Not worth it in my opinion escpecially since I have no aspirations of becoming a DJ.
+11284,2,healthy and yummy,"some might find it too chewy and nutty. even fully cooked it tastes healthy, and some might not like that. the sauce is perfect though, and i like being reminded that its good for me."
+11285,2,The Pioneers spirit revived!,"This is the one needed addition for the Little House Books readers to sing along with Pa's Fiddle!The songs are performed in the old way, with no electronic arrangements, and the fiddle's soul is in every note. If you close your eyes, you can just see a little house snowed in by a blizzard, with merry people incide, dancing and singing along with the fiddle. I am not an American, I have never been there, and I can still see it all just as if I were there a 150 years ago...What adds to the songs is a booklet with the lyrics and the citations from Laura's books where the songs appear, including comments and stories about these songs.I wish there were more of Pa's songs available!"
+11286,2,Getting to know you,"As my kids' mom, you'd think I'd know them pretty well. And while I do know a lot about them, this book has been a very helpful tool in talking about topics that might not get much coverage. My 8-yr-old and I head out every Sunday morning for a breakfast out for two. We take this book with us and read each week's reading together. Then we answer questions. It was so special to talk about how I felt when I found out I was pregnant with her and share her baby story. Great opportunity for bonding and growing closer with topics and questions that help a parent go deeper with a child, building a close-knit foundation for the future. Glad to have this. Encouraging and inspiring."
+11287,1,Do not recommend if your using Visual C++.net Standard,"I thought the the first chapter on the overview of the .NET frame work was very good. When I got to the 2nd chapter on managed C++ basics, the book refered to using a command prompt window provided by Visual Studio.NET for compiling programs. I could not find any reference in how to display that window using the Visual C++.net Standard edition.So if you dont want to shell out the money for Visual Studio.NET, then do not buy this book."
+11288,1,Gosh Darn This Release!,"Another record company swindle! Too bad this is the Gulf War version of the song and not the revised version that Greenwood recorded after September 11th that's being played on radio stations. In its rush to make a profit, Curb/MCA figured who would care, so they released ""God Bless the USA"" as a CD single not bothering to inform the music-buyer that they're getting an oldie."
+11289,2,Brilliant but frightening,"This book should be a must read in economics, biology, civics or any globally focused course in late high school or college. Definitely not the kind of book one reads when one is having trouble sleeping. In fact - I had to stop reading it before bed. Sobering, thought-provoking, life changing material."
+11290,2,One of his best; try this for starters,"I enjoy Dick Francis. I read all of his books, but I dothink the earliest are the best. Like some other mysteryand action heroes--Ian Fleming's James Bond, Robert Parker's Spenser, etc.--Francis's protagonists can walk into an encounter with any number of bad guys and come out alive. But, in a way that is completely unlike any other thriller writer I know, Francis' characters experience fear and pain; when they get injured, they really hurt. I don't mean that there's a lot of blood, gore, or graphic violence; there isn't. But some scenes in ""Whip Hand"" haunt me, nevertheless."
+11291,1,My first and last Evanovich,"Some of the poor reviews suggest that if this is your first Evanovich review, you might enjoy the book. Well, this is my first Evanovich book, and I was not at all enthralled. I couldn't finish it. Within the first 50 pages, it was patently obvious that this was a cliche-ridden, formulaic and repetitive installment of a well-known franchise, penned for profit."
+11292,2,Short chapters increases readability,"This book has 132 chapters but is a breeze to read. The author's style of coming up with short, fast paced chapters will be a surprise to most readers familiar with long, detailed descriptive chapters. But once through the book, one will realize the unforgettable characters, remember a lot of scenes, be thankful that the story is just fictional. Great characterizations not sacrified by the short, direct to the point style of Patterson. Kept me reading till my eyes hurt"
+11293,1,a throwaway,"I only flipped through this book after the first 100 pages or so (I didn't have anything else to read for about a week and kept hoping it would improve). I've like Quinn in the past, but I thought this book was an embarrassment. The characters were unbelievable and the internal dialogue ridiculous and redundant. The humor was unfunny and clunky; the characters vapid. I read a lot of historical romance, and though she was never a favorite, I did like her work, but this may put me off forever."
+11294,1,"Boring, over long, shallow characters, basically crap","after investing the time and effort of the mediocre prequels to this book I found an boringly over long, shallow waste. The story was repetitive and stale. The characters weak shallow, and uninteresting. Feists writing style is a non-descript list of events rather than anything faintly imaginative."
+11295,1,Under par,"This par I'm talking about here is not golf, where under par is good. This album just does not measure up to Clapton's other work. Cranking out albums because you can is not alway a good idea and this is a good example of such."
+11296,2,happy customer,I am a very satisfied customer. The shipment was received extremely fast! The hat is in perfect condition. No complaints. Thanks!
+11297,2,Good movies for toddlers,The Muppets are some some of the only movies out there suitable for toddlers. Not a lot of scary stuff (like Disney animated movies). Muppets from Space is the best.
+11298,1,Terrible Movie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!,This is a terrible movie. The language and violence is far more than was necessary. I am glad I didn't pay to go see this at the theater. Paying to rent it was bad enough.
+11299,2,Excellent and Contemporary,"Lethem is in a rare class of contemporary writers. His work enfolds you into a time period in Brooklyn, NY exploring all that makes the boro unique. This work is fascinating for the NY reader and the non NY reader alike. His characters are well crafted and his plot line solid. The book does explore themes of mafia and deceit which are always entertaining."
+11300,1,took to long to arrive,the item took almost three weeks to arrive and x men 2 froze in the last few minutes of the movie. other than that the other two are in new condition
+11301,2,Very Impressive,"Paul McCusker writes the i've ever read.I loved this book about a different world full of unexpected twists and tunrns that will leave you dazzled,dazed,and writing emails to Paul McCusker and asking him to write more books of the same."
+11302,2,Video Adaptor for MacBook (2006 Model),This adapter works great. I hooked it up with a video cable to the television and a monster mini-plug audio cable and it worked right out of the box. Very easy to use and the Macbook automatically changes your display settings once you plug in the video adapter. This adapter does exactly what it is supposed to do.
+11303,2,Well worth the money,"It is the one baby item I am most thankful for! It gives me tremendous peace of mind to see my son as he sleeps and naps! It also is a joy to watch him as he settles in and we no longer go running into his room if he wakes up, as he usually falls quickly back asleep. It saves a lot of steps when he naps and at night we all sleep better for it!We do often get static-sounding feedback on the audio. We have a lot of wireless tech in the house however it may just be my area (West Chester, PA) as a review below also noted. At night we turn the sound off and leave the video on (which is bright but we got used to it) and also use a regular audio monitor which has no feedback. For us the video alone is worth the price"
+11304,2,"If this CD doesn't perk you up, you're dead","A fun CD from beginning to end. Starts out with the radio hit ""Zoot Suit Riot"", a very catchy tune with plenty of brasswork that doesn't sound too serious or too contrived. The lyrics reflect the swing-era roots but contain modern phrases and topics (some a little risque). Very tight execution of the genre, every song has a little hook or element that is straight from the swing era. The lyrics are clever and descriptive with a lot of detail. A good CD for either serious headphone listening or to just put on in the background."
+11305,1,Don't buy! Illegal!,"This is an illegal bootleg release. Buy 'The Complete Bob Marley & the Wailers 1967-1972', parts 2 and 3 (from JAD Records) or Bob Marley & The Wailers albums from Trojan Records instead, if you want to have the songs on this album. JAD's and Trojan's releases are legal, and the sound quality is often much better on their albums. Also, if you buy the box sets from JAD, part of the money will go to the Bob Marley and Peter Tosh families and Bunny Wailer (the three original Wailers)."
+11306,1,Good for very basic information.,"This is a very basic beginners book. It is not well versed on disease and treatment. However, my 2 year old likes the photos!"
+11307,1,...What happened?,"This was my first Karen Hawkins book. I liked it in the beginning. Then it went not so good when I started reading about Sara. I liked her wit, but sometimes the things she did were not logical, or not right, or appropriate even. There was a good amount of tension in the story and I liked the relationship between Sara and Nick. But when I found out she wasn't a virgin, it kind of turned the whole thing off. Their first intimate scene was too quick, and it felt as if it weren't their first time together, rather, more like their first time after a long time of being apart. And then it suddenly fell apart after that. I don't know what happened, but I really didn't even care, and that was the problem. The intrigue was gone."
+11308,2,Gin Blossoms Raw and Rough,"Sometimes raw and rough just means poor production or lousy musicianship. Not in this case. This early Gin Blossom disc is certainly less polished then New Miserable Experience (which contains 4 ""Dusted"" tracks) but it is raw and rough in a good way. To me, this cd has a much more country feel to it. Alt/Country that is. The guitars remind me alot of early Old 97's. One track, ""I can't sleep"" sounds like it could have belonged on the Long Ryders first record. I think if the band had gone in this direction rather than the sound of ""Congradulations, I'm Sorry"" then they would have been right in the Alt/Country discussion. If you like the Gin Blossoms and you are a fan of Alt/Country then pick it up. You will not be disappointed."
+11309,1,Disappointed.............,"I felt this book came as a highly rated ""Bestseller"" but I find I am disappointed. While I haven't completely finished the book yet it seems to contain several very long descriptive stories of how people behave according to their preconceived ideas. An interesting phenomena, but it gets beaten to death by the author. I have just received my order of ""Outliers"" and hope I enjoy it more than this one."
+11310,1,The Book Of Ruth,"I read this book a few week ago and found it disturbing and far from one of my favorites. I would consider it hard to finish. The story is very sad all the way through. You start to wish something good would happen to this girl. It's one disaster after another, her life is horrible...."
+11311,1,My World Book,"My daughter LOVES Goodnight Moon, so when she saw there were more books to go along with Goodnight Moon she was so excited & ready to see what would happen next. Well.....The book (My World) was a disappointment! My World is NOT comparable to Goodnight Moon. This was a one time read only!"
+11312,2,Good enough,First of all let me tell you that this book could be or not the second one of the series. You won't read anything from the first book but the characters. The second important think is that Trina's ex husband plot is lame in everything and at the end you won't know why he disappeared.In the other hand the book'll keep you reading and having a merry time and that is great while reading a book. I think Trina's story could be very real in everything that happened to her.
+11313,2,This book helped me pass this test,I found this book very helpful in passing my MCSE Enterprise exam. Especially helpful was the section on how domains share information.
+11314,2,A bit different from Lewis's norm,"This may be my least favorite of C.S. Lewis's stories, but that isn't saying a lot. I thought the bus ride to heaven and hell was a bit goofy, but everything else was phenomenal. From detailed descriptions of the physical properties of heaven to the wisdom of George MacDonald, this book will make you rethink your priories in life and the afterlife. It serves as a ""reality check"" of sorts. Though told as a fantasy story, I believe this book is more of an essay.I would not pass over this book!"
+11315,2,Nice!,This slate is exactly as promised. The cells are nice and large and it is a good sturdy item. I can throw this in my purse and travel with it and not have any fear of it breaking like a plastic one. This is definately worth the price and often used in my house!!
+11316,2,"Jackie Chan Copied this movie""s martial arts",This is a unique martial arts movie with heavy kicks and slices.the movie is three amazing women fighting a demon under China.There are many slices and bloody hits so five year old shouldn't watch this because they might get very scared if they watch it.The plots is some times hard to swallow but the fight and weild demons make up for it.Its most definately a classic martial art movie and Jackie Chan copied this movie in some ways. The movie is getting rarer ever day get it now!!
+11317,1,Didn't work sorry to say,"Nothing I've plug into this hub has worked. I intended to use this hub to simplify the wiring to a variety of peripherals (both low and high current) to my laptop. Most devices (such as thumb drives) I plug into the hub were not recognized by the laptop, others performed poorly or not at all. Back to Amazon!"
+11318,2,Great customer service from CAP Barbell,"This is a simple 3 piece weight tree. It is sturdy and I like how the rubber legs protect my floor. I purchased one for each side of my power rack.The unit I received had a manufacturing defect that did not allow one of the legs to be bolted to the ""A"" frame (the mounting holes were too far apart). After a quick email to CAP Barbell customer service, a new leg was sent via Fed Ex at no cost to me (very happy since companies such as Powertec do not ship parts under warranty to Hawaii for free). Very happy with this purchase and also their customer service."
+11319,1,cute but...,"I enjoyed the developing relationship betwen Sinclaire and Quincy. But I have to agree that the masquerade went on too long. After all, just about everyone figured it out after chapter 4 so the story line bcome boring. Also, I wish the author had been more descriptive of what they both looked like. Early on I was clueless as to what they looked like. An epilogue would not have been out of place for this story. Did Sinclairs Mom get married or Mel? How did Sin and Quincy do a few years down the road? Did she continue her unreal ability to pick stocks and make them as rich as the Fricks?"
+11320,1,brand new junk,i bought this dremel cordless on aug 2010.I havent used it until last week may 2012.After about ahours use it doesnt work anymore.Battery issue? Dremel burnt out?Very disappointedNow im left with a brand new junk dremel tool.
+11321,2,STAR WARS,This set is great and goes along well with the set that includes the last 3 movies. Fast shipping too!!
+11322,2,An overall analysis of Congressional failures,"How does Congress sabotage U.S. security? Wastrels of Defense: How Congress Sabotages U.S. Security is no sensationalist title: it's written by a veteran National Security Advisor to four senators and backed by years of political insider interactions. His is a damning expose arguing that since 9/11, Congress has endangered the nation's security by diverting money from war-fighting accounts to pay for state interests. Meticulous documentation of such actions makes this a winning title not limited to one party or philosophy, but to an overall analysis of Congressional failures."
+11323,2,Spellbound,Spellbound Tanning Lotion is a great lotion. You tan fast and leaves your skin very smoothes. This is definetly my favorite lotion. Great price as well!
+11324,1,CD RECORDING WAS VERY GARBLED,"the recording was garbled. Could hardly hear the narrarator. I don't believe that I am the only one who got a bad CD.I wish I could write the seller about this problem, just in case, hoping to get a response.M. Hassan, MD"
+11325,2,Judith does it again.,"I love listening to Judiths voice.I dont think i would pay much attention to these songs if anyone else sung them.She has an ability to reach out with true emotion in her voice.Here is a a very good CD.Some of the songs have been co-written by her late husband Ron Edgeworth.But most songs have been penned by herself.The Cd i have gives a description of each song and where she got the particular songs from.She appears to have put together a collection of songs from here and there and pieced it together,and forming an exceptional cd."
+11326,1,Magellan should stop selling this product until...,"it fixes its accuracy problems. After loading my Meridian Platinum with a map of the Hawaiian island chain, I eagerly looked forward to using my GPS on vacation. Unfortunately I found it to be consistently off by a few hundred yards. After emailing Magellan to find out what I could do they replied:""Mr. ******,The Topo software does have the error of sometimes will place you off your course. Unfortunately, we do not have a date on when an update will be available."" (sic)I had to remove the memory card and rely on just the basemap as it was annoying to be constantly off course. Don' think I will be loading up maps to climb mountains!To Magellan: this is a BUG, and a major one, please fix it before selling anymore units"
+11327,1,Good for a laugh,"This isn't quite ""so bad it's good,"" but it is good for quite a few laughs. I wanted to give it more stars as a comedy but then everyone would yell at me for raising the overall rating for the wrong reasons. Almost reaches ""Troll 2"" level of bad but not quite. It might have been better if they had shot for that goal, then they could at least attain cult status. I don't resent watching it since it was on Netflix Watch Instantly, so essentially no money wasted, only time. I think someone should nominate this for Rifftrax to cover."
+11328,1,had to return this and get my money back,"Terrible product. Burnt out my daughter's hair straightener (even though it's within the wattage listed on product) and ruined my phone charger, too. Luckily Amazon is a great company and sent me back my money.DON'T buy this set. It looks very handy and complete but it is completely defective. It did work on the hair dryer, but scared me because it made it glow inside, and I was afraid it would burst into flames at any moment."
+11329,2,Nice Device - Useful Device!,"Forgive me for so long a delay on this review.I bought this phase meter to -end- an argument at work. It did so very clearly!Now I use it all the time and don't have to go beg the operations people for their (antique) meter!This phase meter is easy to setup and does not subject you to guessing about what is happening. Nice clear read-out of what's going on.It's constructed well and of good materials. The case is small but everything fits inside.Someone said to me once, ""Buying expensive tools is easy, finding good inexpensive tools is hard."" This tool is one of the ""good inexpensive"" ones!"
+11330,2,Her favorite toy; uses it every day,"My daughter received this as a Christmas present when she was 9 months old, and it was her favorite thing she received. She started using it immediately. She needed help on thresholds at first because it was difficult for her to go up an inch or two, but she soon got the hang of it, and is now cruising all over the house. She literally uses this toy every day, and she feels confident pushing it. Now she is venturing to take steps on her own (at 11 months). I definitely would use this again if we have a baby #2.Update: she is now 20 months old, and will still play with the music/buttons part of the toy once in a while. When I look back on her first year, this is the toy she used the most, hands down! I would definitely purchase this for any child in the 6 to 10 month age range!!!"
+11331,2,ROCK AND ROLL,"This is a very powerful and percussive mix of Aerosmith's 3rd album. The bass is absolutely thunderous and that makes this disk a good one for showing off your system to any head-bangers that happen to drop by. I had to dial my subwoofer back twice during the opening cut, but that's fine.I was happily impressed with the multichannel mix on this one. Jay Messina did an outstanding job of staying true to the original vibe of the album while taking advantage of current technology to make a classic sound even better.Five Stars because I can't give it six."
+11332,2,dogs loved it,We have five weimaraners and they all loved this. the only problem was getting them to share it. thank you.
+11333,2,nice hammock,strong and well built. Though next time I think I'll get a canvas one. I have to put a thick towel on it-the ropes are not comfortable to lie on. Not the manufactruers fault-just what it is.
+11334,2,had it when I was 20,got it again when I was 55 such a good album I could not forget it really switched on Classic rock
+11335,2,Almost half off....,"The price of that big blue box! Yeah...my hat one! This movie came very well packaged and easy to open. There is so so much bonus material! That's the best part if these bug sets. The 3D disc was a bonus! I'm not a movie critic, so I won't give you my opinions on any movies. I only speak to the packaging and over all value. Thanks for your time. Oh... The digital copy is awesome too!"
+11336,1,Cutting Base moulding laying flat @ 45*,"Cutting Base moulding laying flat @ 45* does not cut square no matter how much i try to adjust it, it doesnt work. as for the rest of the saw its ok. I will buy the Festool Kapex next time"
+11337,2,This little book and CD will change your life!,This book and CD changed my life! Louise Hay's positive affirmations are inspiring and uplifting. Love giving this book away!!!

+11339,1,Medium size that fits like small.,"I ordered this item size medium, but the one that I received fits like size small."
+11340,2,Great book,Very enjoyable you can never stop because this book is filled with suspends and cold hangers this was a great book
+11341,1,Join the Hate America Club,"Another liberal viewpoint on how bad America is -- Regardless of what the middle eastern terrorists did in the book --the U.S. was equally or often more at fault and responsible for the evil deeds bestowed upon us. I found myself getting angry for most of the book. All the bad guys were Americans, connected to our terrible government. The thing I don't understand is if the U.S. is so bad -- authors should stop tring to make a buck off the terrible folks.The story was a little far fetched, and the book made a lot of leaps connecting a murder to a plot to kidnap the president. I am really not sure how the Camel Club figured it all out except they had to or the book would never end!I used to be a great Baldacci fan in his earlier days and this is one of the few I have purchased in the recent past based on positive reviews. Overall I was disappointed."
+11342,1,Ahhhhhh!,"I hated this warmer!!!! I would put the exact same amount of water in for the same amount of formula. One time it would be too hot, another too cool, and another just right. Sometimes the warmer wouldn't even heat away all of the water! Then, somehow water got into the base, there must be a crack in a seal, and brown water would drip onto my counter. It was awful."
+11343,1,"Poor Quality, Beautiful Ballerina","If I had know the recording quality of this performance was so poor I wouldn't have order it. Bad camera Production, out of focus at times, and unnecessary close-ups of the dancers.Save the Close-ups for the Bonus features not the actual performance."
+11344,2,Good learning tool,I found this book very helpful. It broke down the material step by step and gave great examples. I think anybody entering into any aspect of the music industry should read this book!
+11345,2,Water glasses add elegance to your table,"Lovely, classy glasses that have that fine crystal ""ting"". We feel special every time we use these. The style goes well with almost any wine glass you set next to it. AND we put them in the dishwasher with no problem."
+11346,1,"Long Winded, Sand and Stars","There's one good chapter, a good story, about survival. Otherwise, the pretentious Frenchman force feeds the reader his personal philosophy through a superfluous writing style. His name matches his style, long-winded and pretentious."
+11347,2,Nice story,"If you want to read a fairy tale that won't get you anything but a good reading time you can read this one, if this story could be true as it says JP at the end of the book I have my doubts.You will never know what experiments the scientists did to get a flying girl, but you will have a good time reading it. In this book you can also see the great imagination of the writer.The second book (The Lake House) is much more better."
+11348,2,beautifully ecclectic,"this album is truly amazing...i love how she incorporates folk, rock, hip hop and a kind of traditional, celtic-y sense of the natural world. the lyrics are truly lovely and some of the faster songs are catchy without being simple-minded---she really is a a gifted poet and all the songs reflect that (and i particularly love ""whether or not"" and ""Diving to be deeper"")"
+11349,2,Christian Priorities,"You need to know that this is a book about Christianity, which I did not realize when I bought it. No problem, as I am a Christian, but I was surprised by the content once I started reading. It was a good thing. I was looking for advice on reining in our materialistic lives, and I found it here. He does not make the reader feel bad if they are not dirt poor, but makes very lucid suggestions for how to live your life with or without financial means. This is a great follow-up to Rick Warren's Purpose Driven Life (still the best Christian life guide I have ever read)."
+11350,2,Dragon Ball GT,"The best way to end a great saga. Although, if you are a true fan like me you would want to request another season."
+11351,2,Have read for English 102,"This isn't my first choice type of book, but it's pretty good. Hard part trying figure out how to write research paper on it"
+11352,1,Not as good as the 1st Tarzan,It does not continue from the first movie and seems pretty generic.You would think it would continue in his adult life and not regress.
+11353,2,An insightful video.,"This 90-minute documentary is neat because you get to hear from the six German soldiers why they filmed this or that scene, their thoughts on the progress of the war, etc. Completely unfiltered, which is nice. Lots of down-time footage, e.g. soldiers smoking, etc. Of note: footage of a Russian plane going down, followed immediately by footage of pilot's burnt corpse. Recommended for WWII buffs only."
+11354,2,My parenting Bible,"Tracy Hogg taught me how to take care of my baby! Without this book I would have been lost in the woods and my daughter have been much worse off :)The Baby Whisperer gave me confidence and helped me to avoid numerous parenting pitfalls. My daughter slept through the night at 6 weeks old, she was able to start sleeping 10 hours a night at 10 weeks. Oh joy! Because I was able to sleep at night, I actually enjoyed having a baby, and was able to balance my work schedule with my husband's.This book is absolutely essential! Don't leave the hospital without it!"
+11355,1,Free... way,"The story of the book is simply good. You will twitch your lips sometimes, but you can be sure that you will know every freeway and every street in LA and surroundings and that is a loss of time while reading. If you keep out all driving directions you will have a book of 200 pages, definitely not the best book written by RC."
+11356,2,BOOOOO DUH!,"I have 3 cats and they just love it! The ramp really does help keep the litter in the area rather than tracking all over our apartment. It doesn't eliminate ALL tracking, but it greatly reduces it from going all over the place. The privacy for the cats is a plus too, since one of our girls is really paranoid of being pounced while she does her business. The size holds plenty of litter for all three of them. The only reason why I cant give this a 5 star, is the curvature of the bottom of the litter pan. since it curves, its sometimes harder to scoop the pee balls up and sometimes it will break up a bit. Other than that smaller inconvenience, this is a GREAT product for keeping even the SMELL from reaching our bedroom!"
+11357,2,I bought it 3 years ago and I still use it for my professional guidance,"As project risk management is a daunting factor to mitigate failures in software engineering, I bought this book to learn ways to mitigate risks in project management by using techniques presented in this book. As a veteran in software engineering field and have been leading critical projects, I still use it as a good tool to learn and adopt suggestions and techniques from the book in my professional career.I strongly recommend for project managers and technical leads in software and automation development."
+11358,2,Greatest Box-Set Ever Made,"I don't throw the term ""greatest"" around too often; but for a fan of the franchise, what more could you possibly want?There are 2 versions of every movie, the theatrical edition and a special edition. The crown-jewel of which (for me) was a never-before-seen work-print version of Alien 3. Granted, the last two Alien sequels were extremely disappointing (Alien Resurrection's ending may be the worst in film history) but there is just SO MUCH INCULDED in this set that it is a MUST OWN for anyone who grew up on Alien!"
+11359,2,zen of knowing,"my girlfriend told me that this art book would be an important addition to my already full library. She was right, this is not a how to book but rather a why to.If you are a thinker this book is for you."
+11360,2,Pretty good,"The book if full of quote of both LS members and people who were around them in their heyday for one reason or another. It also features some nice photos. When you get to Ronnie's reaction to the announced crash landing, you're left to decide whether version to believe - Gene Odom's or Artimus'. I tend to believe the former's."
+11361,2,Off the Hook!,This video is totally off the hook! The people in it are 100% real! The things that the hosts get them to do is crazy! I can't believe they would go all out like they do. It is definately worthy to add to any collection.
+11362,2,Planning comes of age?,"Leonie Sandercock has produced a magnificently readable and cool 'sequel' to her 1990s offering of Cosmopolis. Cosmopolis II is a breath of fresh air in the increasingly stale debate over urban planning processes and their links to theory. This could take planners beyond the 'facilitating/mediating' role in battles over planned developments and their impacts, particularly on marginalised peoples and groups. Planners need to become listeners rather than stage-managers, to learn the community's stories and aspirations BEFORE, not after, firm plans or alternatives are devised. A more inclusive approach, which affords communities the chance to tell their own stories and to identify the special values and places in their environments that they want respected, is called for. Sandercock gives current examples of such approaches restoring the development balance in favour of people. They are drawn from progressive 'mongrel cities' : this is not a mere post-modern pipe-dream."
+11363,2,Awesome,I'm very interested in what Superman's life might have been like prior to adulthood. This series lets you see that. It's really enjoyable.
+11364,2,Fabulous!,So worth getting! I was so pleasantly surprised to find the Christmas Special as well--make sure you get the Season 1 UK edition as well!
+11365,2,Based on a True REVIEW,"Wow, great voice and songs. Amazing that she is not as hot as Kelly or Carrie."
+11366,2,Training Collar,This is the second collar we have purchased for our dog. They both work great when she is on a lead.
+11367,2,Wonderful,I have a friend who has twin boys and they are not to this extreme however they are opposites. I found this book very entertaining. Yes it was a long one but it was good. It was a good summer reading book.
+11368,2,Still Jill and Beautifully Human,"I love this album so much. I'm listening to it right now. Every song on this album is so incredible, strong, confident, and beautiful, I don't even have any favorite cuts. This is the best album I've purchased this year. Jill's words just flow so wonderfully I feel I'm heaven every time I hear her sing.The fact is Jill...we need you...Thank you for inspiring me. I can't wait for your book of poetry to drop April 2005."
+11369,1,Worst online game I've ever played,"Even with an above average computer, I had to reduce the graphic settings down to a bare minimum, making it so ugly that it was painful to look at. Even then I had terrible lag when I was near a congested area or town. Very very grahpics unfriendly game. The gameplay and quests weren't great either. When my level 4 character died the game spawned me in a place next to much higher level creatures and it was impossible to safely return to the newbie grounds without asking for help. At that point I quit in frusteration and never went back."
+11370,1,GARBAGE!!!!,"Yes it is cheap but I was expecting a stink! I broke these ""stink"" bombs at work and, NO SMELL WHATSOEVER! Don't even waste your money or time on this product! Total BULLS***!"
+11371,1,Died after less than a year,"I loved this vacuum when I first got it. So cute! So light! So red!But I do not recommend purchasing it, because now less than a year later:- The beater brush stopped working a few months ago. I wondered why the vacuum was leaving dust bunnies back on the carpet - then I checked the beater brush and found it does not rotate any more. Using the plain-floor brush on carpets does not work well either.- The WHOLE THING then died and will not turn on.I vacuum a one-bedroom apartment once a week. Not heavy use at all, but I do need it to be able to pick up kitty litter that is on the floor. It will not do it no matter how many times I go back and forth.Spend your money on something else! Because now I have to buy a new one and I will not buy this brand again."
+11372,2,Tops my list of recommended books for physicians,"This is a terrific book full of good advice and practical suggestions. All the physicians and other health care professionals who attend my workshops on patient communications throughout the nation, have Joy Loverdes's book at the top of their recommended reading list. This is the most thorough and complete resource on the topic of eldercare that I have found. It should be kept handy on a nearby shelf for ready reference over the years!

+11373,1,DVD is missing Scenes?????,"I was very disappointed to find out that the DVD is missing several scenes that were included on the TV versions (seen on TNT and TBS for examples).1. Exenteded Scene in the burger joint where Spicolli disucess with his friends finnally meeting Mick Jagger , ""This PICK..."".2. Alternate scene in the mens room where Spicolli discusses doing too many drugs and how it will effect him.3. Extended Dialogue between Stacey and Ratner on the field trip.4. Extended love scene between Stacey and Dimone, full Nudity.Why leave these scenes out. The movie seems incomplete? THis is a classic, but the dvd should contain all scenes. Seems like the producers of this DVD, didnt want to spend extra money and redit this film. Lazy."
+11374,1,Change of Command,"I'm *so* glad that my local library had this book available to checkout - I would have been very annoyed to have bought it in hardcover.The book starts off well, with an interesting whodunit? of who ordered Speaker's murder but quickly disolved into a series of plots that seemed to have little to do with each other.And just when things seemed to be wrapping up, arrives, leaving one to go HUH? what happened?I'll buy this book when its sequel (actually the rest of the book) shows up."
+11375,1,Very Boring,Very slow moving story...not very enticing...sound quality not great. We did not finish this movie as it did not hold our interest. Unusual experience at best.
+11376,1,Disaapointed,I was mad when I found out it was only a Region 2 movie only.. so i can't play it on any dvd player!
+11377,1,bugflector,"Don't expect this bugflector working great, I just install in my van and drive from Los Angeles to San Francisco on I-5, I drive all the way at 80mph-90mph the windshield still get dirt. If i drive slow it get dirt was reasonsable but it's not."
+11378,1,disgusting,Geriatric hardcore. It's unlike the rest Wharton's books which I liked very much. I wish I had missed it.
+11379,2,Nice Guide...add a few more pages and it would be perfect,"This guide has all of the critical stuff you need as a renter of this type of aircraft. You have to be careful to make sure you are looking at the right charts though, be it for the A1 model or the C1. The only gripe I have is that there are like 5 key pages from the Operating Manual in the plane that they should've put in this book. For those that want to go photocopy those pages out of the POH to make this book complete (this only applies to the A1 model): they are 5-4 (Cruising Performance), 5-5 (Stall Speeds), 5-12 (Climb Performance during Balked Landing), 6-4 (Weighing Report), 6-8 (Weight & Balance Diagram). There are a few other minor things that could be done for the next revision, but all in all, a great book, especially for this price."
+11380,2,i think dmx is the ****,dmx has come out with one of the best albums of the year.i think artists will have to try very hard to bring hip hop to a level above him.
+11381,1,good gun but short life,"This gun is great, except for the short life span. I've gone through five of the guns over the last 2 years. I install base board in track housing, so hose free is almost necessity. I did the math and they shoot about 100,000 nails before they wear out, which could last a life time for some. My batteries are all worn out and its time to switch to a pneumatic hitachi."
+11382,2,Jabra Earset,I ordered this for myself on a Monday and received it on a Wednesday. I took it home that night and my mother-in-law loved it! I had to order another one for myself on Thursday morning. This is a great asset to the cell phone user. It's GREAT! It comes with small/med/large ear pieces for the left/right ear and the button in the middle is great because as a call comes in all you have to do is press the button to begin the call and press again to end. I highly recommend this.
+11383,1,disappointing,"I was disappointed. I'm a hospice volunteer and didn't find much in this book to help. I already know that the first year after the loss is the worst. Her being totally unprepared seemed ridiculous considering all the heart problems her husband had. It was all about her. She didn't tell us how she and her daughter worked together in their grief. She never said more about her daughter's recovery in New York. I was confused about the daughter. One section talked about adoption but it sounded like she was their biological child. Of course, they're not the average family - living in the Beverly Wilshire is not the norm.I haven't read any of Joan Didion's other books but may check them out. Are they all this self-absorbed?"
+11384,2,Perfect ...,"I bought this to pre-heat my diesel tractor and back hoe when it's too cold for a normal start. It works great, as long as you remember to turn it on a few hours before you need to start the engine. The magnet is very powerful. In fact, I can leave it in place while operating the machines and it's never fallen off, yet it's easy to move from machine to machine too ..."
+11385,1,The book equivalent of shovelware,"There were a lot of first generation ASP/Interdev books that were poorly done. I didn't complain about them, because first generation books on a new technology need to be cut some slack. This, however, is a second generation book and it deserves a lot of contempt.This book squanders half of it 623 pages covering the following (non-ASP/Interdev ) topics: VBScript, JavaScript, CSS, and DHTML. This coverage is superficial (mostly a property, event, and method table dump). The reader would be better off getting the full specifications off the web.Unfortunately, the coverage of ASP and Interdev is just as superficial. The author defines the difference between file and machine DSNs in two short inaccurate paragraphs and then keeps referring the reader to that definition as if it was useful.This book consumed several hours without providing any useful information."
+11386,2,"Great read, but very bad editing!","This book was great, can't say enough good things about it. However, the editor(s) should be fired! The direction goes from third person to first person within the same sentence sometimes! I even found a few grammatical errors, doubled words, and misspellings. For that, I gave it four stars. The substance does not, in any way, deserve less than five."
+11387,2,The best movie ever made.,I think this movie is the BEST movie ever made by Stephen King. It is put together brilliantly by a very talented group of people. The kids acted their parts out perfectly. It gave me chills just watching it.This movie is and always will be my favorite movie of all time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
+11388,2,Corndogs for everyone!,"The Corndog Man comes to town.He'll warn you not to let that rat drown.If you like movies that don't follow the ""Hollywood formula"" but have a great story and acting check out Corndog Man."
+11389,2,Emphasizes the spiritual meaning of Bar and Bat Mitzvahs,"In the frenzy of preparing for the big day, it can be easy to lose the focus and meaning of a Bar or Bat Mitzvah. Many kids may wonder ""What is this really all about? Why am I doing this?"" This inspiring, clearly-written book urges kids to think about the deeper meaning of the ceremony and of being a Jew. The emphasis is on spirituality and being mindful of God's presence everyday. I especially liked the section with suggestions and resources for acts of tzedakah as well as little mitzvahs."
+11390,1,Do NOT waste your money!!!!,"I purchased this puzzle in order to help my daughter learn state placement, as well as the capitals of each state. I thought it would be a fun, interactive way to reinforce what we were working on. Well, the puzzle is simply junk. You pull up a state, it gives you the incorrect capital. For example, it randomly starts spitting out states and capitals when you select Florida, it claims you are placing Austin, Texas onto the board. It is extremely confusing for someone who is just learning where each state is located. If you want your child to think that Louisiana is located near Idaho, this is the puzzle for you. Also, some of the states aren't cut individually which adds to the high level of confusion. Please, do not waste you money on the puzzle like I did."
+11391,2,Good tape for the exerciser non-enthusiast,"I've had this tape a few weeks and really enjoy it. I am not co-ordinated, so for me, this tape can get a little confusing when Denise starts combining moves. Like many people have mentioned in reviews of some of her other tapes, some of the counting seems to be off---but it's not that big a deal to me. I like that it's divided into two 20 minute segments. I have three kids, ages 4 years and under, so a 20 minute segment is all I can fit in at night. The second segment that involves the weights is the most enjoyable to me. This tape has motivated me to use other Denise Austin tapes as well. It's a good tape for beginning and intermediate exercisers."
+11392,1,Horrible,"I taught I was going to be getting a Techno CD but I got like a Aerobic music lol, too bad I was in Iraq and my net connection was not that good to preview the songs. Do not recommend it."
+11393,1,Don't buy remanufactured products,"The DVD tray was not opened after pressing the open/close button.It was not tested properly as the basic function was not working.I am waiting for Amazon's reply to exchange this product. If i face the same type of problem in 2nd time then i will go for money back.I have received the 2nd item but the same prolem, the DVD didn't work. I will return both the items."
+11394,2,"To Your Memory, Ross Adell","This book represents a lifetime of work by the authors. Ross and Ken live and breathe Mets trivia and these are questions you will not find anywhere else. A Mets fan should not be without this book.I also want to use this space, to remember my friend Ross Adell, who passed away in June 2006. Ross loved trivia, Seinfeld, the Mets, and his friends- not necessarily in that order. Ross and I attended a number of games at Shea and Fenway over the past decade. I miss him, and I can't believe he's gone."
+11395,1,STAY AWAY!,"Mind numbing laundry lists of dates and squadron losses presented in narrative format, making it incredibly boring to read and impossible to use as a reference. No maps or tables, and a lot of information is repeated through the book as though it hadn't been edited. STAY AWAY."
+11396,1,What was that?,I listened to CD and was very disappointed! The singer screams to hit high notes - very squeaky and unpleasant voice. CD production is horrible. The girl sounds off pitch on her first song? Could not they fix it?
+11397,1,AWFUL,"Rubber hides color-coded clearly labelled buttons with solid thick black rubber. Impressions for labels are raised without color and hard to see. Pressing buttons extremely difficult with rubber on. Indeed, I found it impossible to do some functions successfully with it on."
+11398,1,Belkin Transfer Cable,"I could not get the cable to funtion during the easy file transfer process between my new computer running vista and my old running xp. I followed the directions, etc.. and it did not function as advertised. Very dissapointed.."

+11400,1,Cliche characters and nanotech as window dressing only,The psycho son Greg was so boring killing everyone. I had to skim over half the book. I couldn't even finish this slop. What a waste of time? So unoriginal!!
+11401,1,Disappointing,"Given Lucie-Smith's vast experience in the field, I expected a more definitive work on the male figure in the history of art. I found it to be much short of that. The scholarship and the illustrations just don't measure up to anything like a seminal statement on the subject. In fact, there are many instances when the choice of illustrations is inexplicable. This is not a book that I have kept for my art library."
+11402,1,Tiresome Narrative,"Though I found Konik's insider knowledge of the business fascinating, I never felt he knew much about the characters that inhabit the business. Therefore, Konik turns himself into the main character and, truth be told, he's just not that interesting. Half way through the book, I tired of him and his hot girlfriend and their threesomes. Now that I think about it, there was no substance to any of the personal relationships in the book.Smart Money loses momentum quite quickly. The beginning packs a punch, then it's over. I also found the book to be terribly repetitive. Every few pages I found myself thinking, ""didn't he just say that?"" In the end, it was the repetitiveness that took me out of the narrative altogether. I finished the book only because I was bored during a layover in Dallas."
+11403,1,fuzzy overview of hand sewing and construction,"The book reviews the history of haute couture and explains why haute couture products are so expensive and how you can distinguish hand-sewn haute couture product from ready-to-wear.It also introduces hand-sewing techniques, some construction/pattern making ideas and how to sew some elements of a garment. Drawings illustrate techniques and sewing of some elements, photos give overview of construction of the item.However, such outline makes it a mix of sewing and construction which is hard to read and understand. I would recommend to buy a decent pattern-making book and a good sewing book instead (only thing you might miss is the fabric pattern matching in difficult places i.e. Schiaparelli's Circus jacket)."
+11404,2,Ducane 2-burner BBQ,"Arrived all in good order and went together in about 30 mins. Other than the drawings being a bit small, everything went together quite easily. Much of it was actually pre-assembled (controls, etc.) which was nice. Will fire it up this weekend!"
+11405,2,Brilliant read,Another fantastic read by the former Archbishop. This is a wonderful reminder about the basis of love and marriage. Will be giving a copy to newly weds. :)

+11407,2,Plymptoons A Review,"I really liked the celebrity interviews in this documentary. Well worth time spent watching the movie. Features Interesting and views on Bill Plympton, including a joke about people confusing the sound of his name with Bill Clinton. A must watch for animation fans."
+11408,1,Confusing,"This is a truly attrocious text book. I've been forced to use it for the last 18 months and it's been almost no help. The layout is confusing, the information contradictory or irrelevant and the price is excessive. Avoid this book like the plague if you're serious about learning Italian."
+11409,2,The Redemption of Althalus,"Mystical and good, keeps you on the edge of your seat, a must read for anyone that looks fir the impossible!"
+11410,2,"Insightfull, readable, somewhat unconventional","I probably wouldn't select this as the primary text for a fluid dynamics course, as it's organization of topics seems somewhat esoteric. As the author admits in the preface, their are already a number of excellent texts available in the classic style. I would however recommend this book highly for supplementary reading, as it delves into a number of detailed examples and manages to elucidate many physical insights that get buried or glossed over in the conventional treatments. The author also conveys a great passion for the subject, which he believes has suffered neglect in most physics curricula in favor of more sexy and modern topics, which I tend to agree with."
+11411,1,Are you the lowest common denominator? Then this book is for you!,"I'm a fan of trashy pulp literature. I'm a fan of great books too, but trashy pulp literature certainly has it's place on my bookshelves. The Da Vinci Code however doesn't deserve the paper it was written on. Dan Brown writes like he's writing for children."
+11412,1,Misleading -- It's only one pack,"So the picture shows the whole box but it's really just one pack. Why, oh why, don't I read reviews first? Even though it says ""pack"", the description says 9 cards per pack. It doesn't make it clear (to me and apparently others) that this is really ONLY ONE PACK. Not having a ton of experience with Pokemon, I didn't realize it was unrealistic to expect the whole picture for $12. Oh, well. Lesson learned and I have a disappointed son since technically HE bought it. Very disappointing.It would be VERY helpful -- and less misleading -- if the picture displayed only showed the front of one pack."
+11413,2,Primary source of a New World traveler,"Catalina de Erauso is an unusual figure in world history : a runaway nun who successfully concealed her gender and navigated the business and military structures of hertime. She's a swashbuckler and an eye level view of Spanish society in Peru in the 1600s. Historians believe that, mostly likely, much of this book was actually written by this remarkable person. I'd reccomend it as an enjoyable and quick read offering a first hand view of the past."
+11414,2,finally begin to understand the opposite sex,"I really enjoyed this book because it truly does help you overcome communication blocks between the sexes. It is put in a simple, fun, easy-to-read way that doesn't attack either sex for behaving certain ways. This is a great book for a couple to read together."
+11415,1,no product,"I ordered in January, never received, supposedly ups left on doorstep. I""ve never had anything taken before. I emailed them, no response, I filed a claim and still hasn't been solved."
+11416,1,Disappointed,"From the time I first heard of this movie I was sure I would like it and waited eagerly for it to be available. Let me say that I am quite a fan of European films and like Bergman especially. When I finally watched it a couple of days ago, I was very disappointed. While I thought the cinematography was quite good, the overall film left me bored and unmoved. I find myself somewhat puzzled by the raves that appear about it here and other places because I feel that it is being extremely over-hyped. Perhaps if I had watched it before reading all the raves I would have like it (at least a little) more.For those who read this and plan to watch it, I would advise you to be sure to set up your DVD player to run the audio in the original Swedish with English subtitles. I accidentally watched the dubbed version and, I must say it was one of the most horrible examples of dubbing that I have ever witnessed."
+11417,2,Best live blues song ever recorded,""" Called its my own fault"" Jimmy & Rick Derringer trade licks I saw this same band life back in 1973 in Asbury Nj Played same set Just a freaking amazing concert If you a guitarist and you have nt heard this you really should I had a friend over who i was playing out with he was younger and never heard it His jaw was on the floor ""that is sick "" yup sure is enjoy!"
+11418,1,Too graphic for me...,"While I am a heavy-duty Stephen King fan, I was disappointed with this book. I just read The Talisman about 2 years ago and it was a good read even though it was a bit dry here and there. I was very excited to hear about The Black House as it is the long awaited sequel to The Talisman. This story is also a bit dry in a good many places (Stephen King should stick to writing alone - the stories are always better). However, as the mother of a young daughter, I was shocked and horrified at the graphic detail in which a murder scene of a child is described. I can handle pretty much any murder and mayhem King can dish out when it involves adults. If it does involve a child, I know King can get the point across without describing it in such detail. That's just plain disturbing. I was very disappointed. I expect more from Stephen King and he usually delivers."
+11419,1,lacking,I was very dissapointed in this book. I am from New England and I thought this book would contain ideas for new locations to photograph foliage. There is almost no text of interest and the photographs are lacking. A few of them were nice but none of them blew me away.
+11420,2,An Extraordinary Work,"Mr. Suskind has given a serious peek behind the scenes in the Bush White House through the eyes of an extraordinary man, Paul O'Neill. It is not a pretty sight. We find out they began planning the War in Iraq days after taking office. And that they've squandered the budget surplus on tax breaks that have not stimulated the economy (against the advice of their leading economists). The most disturbing insight has to do with President Bush. The picture that is painted is one in which he has little if any insight into the world and the issues around him. He has surrounded himself with idealogues. Mr. O'Neill is an amazing man with an unbelievably gifted mind who is not afraid to tell the truth. Every American should read this book before they cast their ballot next November. It may be THE MOST IMPORTANT BOOK OF THE YEAR."
+11421,2,"Great Book, Soon to Be - Great Movie","Michael Shaara may not be as good a writer as father, but he surely comes close to it in his prequel to his father's Pulitzer Prize winning novel, The Killer Angels. In Gods and Generals, Michael Shaara explores the lives of Generals Lee, Hancock, Jackson and Chamberlain. It delves into their thoughts, actions, remembrances leading up to the battle at Gettysburg. He shows them as people not as unknown figures talked about in boring history classes. People who had feelings, yearnings, and fear.One does not need to be a Civil War buff to thoroughly enjoy this book. It could have been longer because so many battles are included, but then this may have made the book tedious to read.The movie comes out in 2003. If it is as good as the book, it will be a winner."
+11422,1,Incestuous filth,"Unfortunately I bought the trilogy after reading The Other Boleyn Girl thinking that all of this authors works would be good. I was wrong. I read this book and the start of the next, The Favored Child, and it is all disgusting. Honestly, I don't know who would enjoy this kind of rag."
+11423,1,HORRIBLE!,"""Caught Stealing"" was touted by another reviewer as being in the Jeff Abbott genre. Nothing could be farther from the truth.Here is a loser/alky/dopehead who repeatedly journeys down those paths without any redeeming ""heroic"" traits. Bud the cat is a refreshing twist, UNTIL the author decides to have the cat abused. As a cat lover, I was finally and irrevocably turned off. Usually when I finish a book, I donate it to a library. Not this one. It went right into the trash on top of the bag of the day's cat litter box collections. As a former salesman for a large Eastern publisher, I would have had a VERY hard time selling this to a buyer. What WERE the agent and publisher thinking?"
+11424,2,Excellent Addition to Scarn,"Excellent addition, Charduni empire, the Blood Bayou, The cat like Terali, the Barbaric gnolls, Gnomes, Forsaken elves... and a Big honkin map! This book is an excellent addition for the scarred lands and just for a few bucks gives you countless adventure ideas... the only downfall is the end of the book. All and all Sword & Sorcery just keeps getting better and better; and this book is proof."
+11425,2,Another rocking Weeds Season.,Yet another awesome season of Weeds. A must have it you have the other 3 seasons.
+11426,1,"cheap, cheap, cheap","One would hope that Morbisch production DVDs would all be published to the same standard, but this one is clearly not as good as some of the others (Grafin Mariza for example). The production can only be likened to the sound of the vogel -- cheap, cheap, cheap. First -- no subtitles -- for an operetta that has large amounts of dialogue this is not forgivable-- unless you understand German much of the program is uninteligible. 2nd - this DVD unlike other DVDs from Morbisch does not have a 16:9 option -- only 4:3. 3rd -- close ups of characters slapping mosquitos suggest a bored tape editor. Save your money, unless you have a fixation on Der Vogelhandler or Carl Zeller your experience with operetta will be better served with other DVDs."
+11427,2,My ROADYXT Home Kit Experience,"I bought the Home Kit for the RoadyXT. Overall, it does what you want it to do. You can either have it at work or home to listen to music all day. We have a firewall at work, so I can't listen to music over the net. That's where the Home Kit comes into play. The satellite signal it receives it not bad for being inside the building with no windows nearby. The FM Modulation is a bit weak and gives some static, although I'm not sure if it's the Roady or the Home Kit. Overall, the remote is easy to use and helpful on the road as well. I would recommend it if you want the extra item, but not a necessary one."
+11428,2,Luv those zombies!,"I wasn't expecting the picture of the year, but I do like my zombie movies. This one kinda seemed to start as if you were late at the theater and walked in without getting to see the first 10 minutes or so, but it took off like it should, having 2 plots going the whole time, Definitely worth seeing."
+11429,1,Doesn't ink well,The smell is cool but the ink itself is very light. Cannot see the stamp design very well compared to the other colors I purchased.
+11430,2,An interesting book,This was a fun book to read. I really enjoyed it. The book is old but it tells a timeless story of survival. It is an interesting book.
+11431,2,Capt Newman MD,"This is one of my christmas favorites and it is in DVD now! Gregory Peck's Dr Newman runs the psychiatric ward of a WW II Air Corp's hospital and works with three significant patients: Col Bliss, tragically played by Eddie Albert, suffers a mental breakdown from his command duties that results in his suicide; Corporal Tompkins, played by Bobbie Darin, uses alcohol and bravado to hide his guilt from abandoning a companion in a plane crash and gets nominated for an academy award; and Robert Duvall is a speechless returned pilot who spent a year hiding out in a French basement. Of course who would ever want to leave a mental ward if Angie Dickenson was your head nurse; I would pretend to be crazy if i wasn't. It's a wonder that Newman cured anyone with Lt Corum around! Corporal Tompkins (Tony Curtis) steals the show as Newman's reluctant orderly, marshalling Italian POW's and trimming the colonel's Christmas tree (literally). What a cast! What a story! i watch it every year."
+11432,2,Gamemaster material mostly,"This is a great buy if you plan on gamemastering Star Wars, great info, great ideas for plot and very nice visuals, but people who do not plan on gamemastering wont benefit as much, since the era notes and information on the star wars universe is so readily available from other sources, unless you live out of the U.S. and such information is scarce to begin with, but still i think it is a gamemaster tool."
+11433,1,"Oh, my God -- Just put it down","Floyd had real, original Civil War letters to work from in writing this book, and it is my firm belief that the author of said letters should come back from the dead and run Floyd through with a bayonet, or at least give him lice or something. The parts of the book -- mostly battle scenes -- that appear to have been taken from original documents are fairly good, but Floyd has failed to flesh them out, so that what we end up with is a disjointed, scattered account that lacks dramatic tension. The reader gets to the end of the book and thinks ""wait... did I just read something?"". The plot line concerning Wiley's wife waiting at home was treacly. And, as if that wasn't enough, the book is full of small but annoying errors: a piece of jewelry inscribed *19*-something for the year; the Orange Plank Road as ""a dirt path"". Overall, I'd say don't bother."
+11434,2,Haven't got a whole lot of use but...,"Overall I am pleased with these pots. I picked them up for the purpose of homebrewing and they worked for that quite well. Shortly after purchasing them I upgraded to bigger pots but while I used them they worked well and cleaned up nicely. My only complaint with them is that they seem a little thin, with a bit of muscle you can bend them with ease but as far as heat distribution and such goes this is probably a good thing I suppose."
+11435,1,Sidekick is too cool. T-Mobile stinks,"As you will note from the other reviews, T-Mobile is awful. And in all liklihood no one there is smart enough or cares enough to read reviews of their service. Don't even try to make a call from a basement. Signal strength is non-existent. We called to cancel and they said, ""We'll give you the web server free for a month to try."" We cancelled within the month and they charged us anyway. Nothing we could say would make them rescind the charge. How do they stay in business?"
+11436,1,Alli doesn't work any more--Don't waste your money,"The old Alli used to work good, but don't waste your money on the new Alli, for it has no treatment effects at all. I know how Alli works because I took it for a long time. It was taken off the market and returned in June with new ingredients that does not work at all. I even put enough fat in my diet just to test it and no effects what so ever."
+11437,1,Voice Track Redone,"My wife LOVES Carly Simon, and especially the Vineyard Concert from some 20 years ago. I taped this concert live off of HBO when it was aired originally, and we have almost worn the VHS tape out, playing it dozens of times. I bought this VHS tape as a backup, figuring my original would wear out sooner or later.Well, it's the same... almost.Any buyer should beware that the entire lead vocal track has been redone. To some, this may be an improvement; after all, the lead vocals are now absolutely perfect. But I like the energy from the original, and knowing that my tape was exactly how she sounded THAT NIGHT. And she sounded terrific - it really wasn't necessary to re-do the vocals. It kind of reduces the show to a lip-synching exercise. Maybe that makes me a purist. But a concert should stay a concert, in my opinion, with the original live vocals."
+11438,2,New way to look at Wonderland,"As a big fan of Gregory Maguire's books, Wicked, Son of a Witch, etc. I love these ""classic stories twisted around."" We all know the story of Alice in Wonderland, but this new version makes Alyss real. I loved it and reccommend it, again, not only for newly independant readers but also for adults."
+11439,1,Defect delivery,"I ordered this item because my daughter, almost 5, loves music and i want to teach her a lot about classical music. unfortunately the delivery (cartridge) was defect and i can't return as i am living in switzerland. i got the money back but i am still disappointed."
+11440,2,Great book to take you from simple to fairly complex brews,"Here's a rundown on what this book has:1.) Detailed explainations on how brewing works, and all the different parts (grains / hops / yeast).2.) Detailed instructions on how to do an all extract batch, intermediate batch (extract plus some grains), and an all grain batch. Even has pictures!3.) Instructions on how to make things like a mash tun, from common items such as a cooler.4.) Several different recipes.5.) And more!I found this book to be very easy to read and understand. I really like how it has info on how to do really simple batches (using extract), as well as intermediate (batches utilizing seeping of grains), and full blown all grain batches. If you were hoping for one book to give you the information you needed to get started with home brewing it's a great choice."
+11441,1,Yummy cinnamon flavor,The cinnamon flavor is well worth the price and the amount you receive in the shipment.
+11442,2,AT FIRST YOU FOOLED ME!!,BUT THAT AWESOME VOICE OF JAMES HATFIELD AWOKE ME! IT IS A GREAT RECORDING...IT LITERUALLY BROUGHT TEARS TO MY EYES. NOW I CAN'T GET ENOUGH OF IT!! BUY IT TODAY!!!!!!
+11443,1,Completely disappointed,"Okay where do I begin? The shipment came a week later than expected, but I can deal with that. I received bootlegs. No doubt about it. I've been to Iraq and Afghanistan and have seen my fair share of bootlegs. The video quality is terrible, all episodes are showing large pixels. I unwrapped season 5 and the first disk skipped throughout ever episode. The jewel cases are cheap and brittle, half of them are already broken. Some of the disks will start halfway through an episode as soon as I insert it. If you are going to sell bootlegs, advertise them as such, you overcharging con-artists. I could get better quality, more durable, copyright infringed horse crap in a third world country. Sad!"
+11444,1,"As a Christian, I found this book offensive","and I think it might be banned from the public libraries where children might get a hold of it.How a man who rarely goes to Church, started a preemptive war, and cuts funding for programs for the weakest and poorest among us has ever gotten the reputation for being a ""good Christian"" is one of the greatest mysteries of the milennium. Maybe it is because he said God ""talks to him"" and told him to start the Iraq war? Regardless, this book is either an awesome satire on the false piety of our president, or is the most obvious piece of propaganda nonsense around. You decide - but don't look for it in your public library, because it may have been banned."
+11445,1,"Abysmal ""0 stars""","I have to say that this is possibly the most horrible movie i have ever watched. I warn that if you buy this you will be sorry. Thinking of what is wrong with this movie i don't know where to start. The jokes are not funny and the storyline makes no sense whatsoever (lead characters are - black JFK and Elvis). As for action there is none. The monster effects are 1. a guy in a suit (well not even a suit just cowboy clothes and a mask) 2. very poorly used plastic cockroaches on strings. This movie looks like some highschool kids video project. The ""Bubba Hotep"" monster is killed by two old geezers. It seems the only people that enjoyed this movie are Bruce Campbell fans, read the reviews and see. I will say that this movie is not even worth renting. Its that bad, a word to the wise is sufficient."
+11446,1,Volume is terrible!!!!,"We picked this toy up at the store as an unplanned purchase because my son seemed to like it so much. the volume was appropriate then. However, once the phone is out of the package the volume decreases dramitically. The only way we can hear it at all now is in a quiet room with the phone held to our ears. A note included with the instructions state that this is normal. What it ought to state is that this is a complete waste of money. Although fun at the store (before volume tab is removed and you can actually hear it), it's useless once opened. Talk about bait and switch!! I am very disappointed with this toy."
+11447,1,SLEEPY HEAD,"I'm not pregnant but I wanted a good organic vitamin and thought these would be the perfect one considering they're organic and had greeeat review. BUT PLEASE BE AWARE--ALLL I do is sleep all day especially on weekend when I am of from work.I need a viatmin that will give me strength to keep up with my daily routine not one that puts me in bed!I've try to take at night and do sleep like a babbby, however, regardless of that fact, I still am Sleepy ALL DAMN day.I wonder if I am the only one with this problem when it comes to this multi-viatmin.HMM?"
+11448,1,"Nice toy, poor training device","The hardware itself is well-built. The display is high-contrast and easy to read, and the buttons have a good feel and are laid out rationally. The problem is with the software.The biggest problem is the fact that this device has the dealer stand on 16 (hard or soft), not 17, making the device useless for practicing Basic Strategy. There are a few other quirks with the software. A player's three or more card 21 wins instantly--no push against a dealer's 21. Also, the dealer doesn't expose his natural, allowing you to double-down or split against it and lose twice (but also allows you to surrender against it). You are only allowed to double-down on a 10 or ace, a rule seldom found in shoe games. An ace-9 combination shows up as ""10"", not ""20"", but settles the bet correctly if you stand. And due to screen size limitation, you must stand on any six card hand; fortunately, so must the dealer.All in all, a nice toy, but not a serious blackjack trainer."
+11449,2,A childhood favorite!,"I can remember to this day, going to see this movie in a local theater, probably one of the first movies I attended without my parents. Based obviously on Robinson Crusoe, this Disney telling of the classic tale is a lot of fun. At times perhaps a bit zany, but Dick Van Dyke is always fun to watch and the beautiful Nancy Kwan made this a young guys dream! I searched for this for a long time and as soon s I saw it on DVD I had to have it!"
+11450,1,"my child called this ""the worst game ever""","I will say the 3-d fx do work...for a hand-full of pictures, you have to lay out all the cards ( you will need a massive table or the kitchen floor) and search for random objects great concept poorly executed. as the title of the review stated. The 10 year old said ""this is the worst game ever"" we played it once and it's collecting dust on the shelf."
+11451,1,Book,"The book I ordered came quickly, and it was not expensive. However, the book was very old and musty smelling. BUT I didn't mind as it was such a good price! So far, I have had very good results in purchasing books via Amazon.com.Thanks,Jackie"

+11453,2,Me and Jerry/Me and Chet - Fingerpicking at its best,"I purchased both of these ablums - Me and Jerry & Me and Chet - when they were first released on vinyl when I was in high school back in the 70's. They quickly became two of my favorite Chet albums; and, I rarely listened to anything but Chet. My 13-year-old son, who is a gifted Chet Atkins style guitarist, recently asked my why I hadn't purchased one of Chet and Jerry Reed's alumbs on CD. My reason was because I could never find them. It took an Austrlian company to finally release these albums on CD. Thank you Raven Records!! These recordings rank at the very top of Chet's recordings. They are fingerpicking at its best."
+11454,2,Graceful butterfly,"Agree with Angela, this dvd is for those already possessing some skill but wanting to refine technics. It is not for amateurs.Kaitlin's perfect butterfly technic is so graceful, it doesn't look strenuous that I take that vision to the pool and practice. Another plus point is it can be watched over and over again without being bored with too many instructions."
+11455,2,Very handy,"These things come in very handy working on automobiles. Makes quick work of various clamps and shrouds when you put them on your ratcheting screwdriver. I like them a lot. They look and feel like they are very high quality too, not some dollar store junk."
+11456,1,Brutal Film,Brutal filmI just returned from watching this film and the only words that come to mind are:GraphicRealisticBrutalExtremeIf you are looking for a film for the shock value only this makes Cannibal Holocaust or Day of the Dead look like a walk in the park.The feel of the film is a direct copy of Gladiator both cinematically and musically. The violence begins almost from the beginning and doesn't end until the credits roll. I should add excessive graphic violence. ...
+11457,1,How thoroughly we forget...,"To say that the Bobbsey Twins series was 'Not Politically Correct' would be a vast understatement. This book is interesting as an example of the indoctrination that my generation received, but is rife with denigrating racial and sexual stereotypes. I found myself appalled at the use of terms and language that in retrospect I know were considered disrespectful and demeaning at the time (the early 1960's) that I was reading these books as a child. How I came through as relatively un-scarred as I have is somewhat of a mystery.Read these books as a window into a very different time in our country; then rejoice at how far we have moved away from the attitudes expressed."
+11458,2,Cuts crusty bread great,"Cuts hard and crusty bread without crushing it. It is big -- if you have room for storage it is great that it is big -- one long pull and your are through the toughest crust and complete with your slice. My other knives are very expensive (Global and such). I got this because of reviews that said you can never really sharpen your serrated knives like you can other knives. I've had my $150 bread knife sharpened professionally several times. It gets sharper but not like new. My expensive old bread knife could not get sharp enough to handle super crusty bread. So, I got this Victorinox expecting to replace it in five or so years if and when it gets too dull. I had forgotten how nice a real sharp bread knife can be until I used this one last night. This should become a go-to knife whenever a serrated edge is needed.BTW, in spite of the low price, it looks great hanging with my other knives."
+11459,1,More Alpha Trash,"At least Alpha Video appears to be consistent. I've purchased two of them, and both are unwatchable. This movie would probably be a B or B+ if you could make out what the characters are saying or not be bothered incessantly by skipped dialogue and a horribe DVD picture transfer.Even the gorgeous Ann Sheridan doesn't look so hot in this movie. It may be that God-awful hair style. Or else it's just the D-- picture quality.Next DVD you buy - check to be certain its not an Alpha which, I believe, is Greek for awful."
+11460,2,"""Two Snaps"" & ""Two Thumbs Up""","I enjoyed this new book by Mick Hicks. In Mick Hicks new book of color images that are so clear and lighted so brilliantly you'll find a lot of familiar faces & hot bodies especially if you're a fan of Falcon Studios male sable of domestic & international video stars. These are shots of the many new models and porn stars currently showcasing in Falcon's videos. Mick Hicks is one of California's most popular commercial male photographers and you can tell why when you get to view these great images of his. These full frontal nudity photos display pure sex appeal.A beautifully designed book published by Bruno Gmunder. There's a sense of power & raw masculinity in these images that sets this photographer apart from the others. ""Two Snaps & ""Two Thumbs Up."""
+11461,2,"ehh, ok.","This seems like a well-organized and helpful book. Even more helpful, perhaps, had I opened it for the class...oops."
+11462,1,"An effective reminder of the basics, but nothing more","Just finished reading the book for an MBA class and found the book to be effective in reminding readers of elements to keep in mind when working towards effective production. Nevertheless, I came away from the book feeling that Goldratt knew his theory would only run about twenty pages of text if written in plain layman form and decided to turn it into a 340 page novel in order to have enough pages to get a publishing deal. I also felt that Goldratt's followup at the end of the book (""My Saga"") seems to be written merely as a defensive explanation as to why his theory failed to work in some cases. That is not the intention of the piece, I'm sure; but that is the reality of what is said there. Ultimately, in trying to ease concerns about failures with the system, Goldratt leaves the reader with a feeling that perhaps his theory is not worth the trouble implementing."
+11463,2,"Feeling, Spirit and Virtuosity","My heading says it all for this music and the performances. Mozart had a real knack for making wind instruments sound absolutely gorgeous. Besides the obvious works like the Sinfonia Concertante, K.299 and the all the wind concerti, great wind parts abound in the symphonies and especially the later piano concerti (No. 24, in particular). However, the Mozart wind and piano quintet is probably the greatest work ever for that unusual combination. Beethoven's is also magnificent, if not on the same exalted plane. The performances here are just wonderful. If you want to save a couple of bucks, the Naxos version is also superb."
+11464,1,Not very good sound.,"I purchased this item in Dec but only recently opened the package and tried it out. It is not great, if it hadn't been so long since my purchase I would send it back. you have to almost have the mic in your mouth for it to pick up your voice. I wasted my money."
+11465,2,SpongBob Grill,"I think that the toy is fun. My friends like to come over and play with it. It has a nice place under the grill to put the burgers, lettuce and stuff."
+11466,1,"A pale, antiseptic version of Gould.","I agree with all of the other reviewers who were disappointed by this CD. It's is a prime example of how computers can't really touch the artistry of a human being, at this point in time. I recommend his older recordings, which are lower fidelity but capture the performance of a manic artistic genius.The Zenph computerized piano simply does not capture the correct dynamics, nor does it feel like you're listening to an actual human being playing (obviously because you're not!). All of the warmth, humor, angst, and simple emotion behind Gould's plays is lost entirely here. The sound quality is fine, but what is sound quality without great music to back it up?Not recommended."
+11467,2,Inspired me,"tI had no idea what this would be about, but after reading the synopsis, I gave it a try. I LOVED IT. It's not a traditional ""documentary, but that's ok, I get what the motivation is all about. Renew your ""happiness"" aby helping those around you. Simple, straightforward and powerful. Kudos!"
+11468,1,"Too hard to use, easily unthreads/gets stuck, instructions not clear","This machine is a nightmare, it is hard to use for my mother who is an experienced sewer and has been sewing since her 20's and sews very often. The machine is lacking in many simple thing such as the fact that the thread guide in step 4 doesn't stick out of the covering and so you have a hard time threading it, the needle threader instructions aren't clear and we still haven't figuredout how to use it, and the presser foot is just simply slid on rather than screwed tightly and so it often falls off if you move your hand over it while trying to thread the needle. This is so cheaply made and not at all user-friendly. It's a waste of $100. At least if you buy it at a proper store, you can try it out and have someone show you how to use it before you buy, by ordering online, you don't know what your getting nor have anyone to show you how to use it."
+11469,2,With Paintbrush and Shovel,"With Paintbrush and Shovel is certainly a unique book. The beautiful paintings of wild flowers - 238 in all- really look more like high quality photography, they are so exquisitely detailed. The story that goes with the paintings tells an unknown story about work done by WPA women during the depression. One of the projects fostered by Roosevelt, the WPA gave work to unskilled African-American women and it was these women that cleaned up this willderness and brought the wild-flowers to Bessie Marshall to be reproduced in watercolor. The book is well-worth owning."
+11470,2,Eval,This is the best electric razor I have ever used. It is slightly less effective that a razor and shaving cream shave.
+11471,1,Junk,"The other reviewer is right. Do not buy this. I happen to have version 1.65 and it may be even worse. I'm also in the IT business and I've not seen many products worse than this.My administrator password keeps resetting itself and you have to call them to get a temporary password. Of course, they almost never answer their phones.I had to uninstall it using regedit which I'm comfortable with but most home users would not want to go through that ordeal.I'd give it zero stars if I could."
+11472,1,A Dreadful Bore,"I tried to get through this book. It took me about three weeks to get to page one hundred. The format was a mess. It was supposed to be the collected documents of the main character. This format just made reading the book a chore. After a while I found it difficult to keep the characters straight and just found myself dreading the idea of reading it. This could have been a good 400 page novel, but the author tried too hard to be clever and it ruined the impact. I wish I had the patience of the reviewers that finished The Wall because it is about a subject that I am very interested in; but it was just too boring for me to continue."
+11473,2,interesting movie,Glad that I made the purchase of this movie. The plot is decent and the actors keep you waiting for their next move. I enjoyed the movie so well that I watched it 3 times on the first day that I had it.

The author has crossed over 101 countries, so you'll find a lot of useful information in it. The book contains maps and cool pictures, especially the one of the Turk family. A good complement to the Lonely Planet!I'm waiting for the next tome!"
+11476,1,The Lie: This book,"Ken Ham simply did not convince me that Evolution is a lie. If anything, he convinced me of the ignorance some people have about the basic concepts in the modern theory of evolution. In the end he's just trying to play to the fears of people who don't want their faith threatened by accepting Evolution as fact.Which confuses me, when many profoundly religious people have begun to see that Evolution is the ""Much more than the theory"", to paraphase a quote of one famous Christian leader.Again, Ham goes on about how the Bible must be considered 100% factual information. Such factual information says it is somehow possible to fit millions of species onto one giant ark that according to the decriptions in the bible, was far too small to fit them.., and yet still had to cary all the food required for them to live...Hard to call people liars when making those claims I should think."
+11477,2,I'm sure glad I waited for the re-release of this one.,"This is Jude Cole's Debut CD from the 1980's, the same CD that's been floating around ebay for years for very large amounts of money.

The silly , self righteous reporter both loses and gets , just what she deserves.Alan Alda is simply embarassing !Horrible Movie !"
+11479,2,The Supreme Bean,"This set is funny EVERY time I watch it. Every time I have a guest who does not know this character ends up laughing their head off. The sound and picture quality is first rate and the packaging is wonderful except for one error on the info which exchanges 2 episodes on the actual discs.The ONLY disappointment is the ""Turkey Contest and weigh-in"" and another scene in the furniture department where he out wits a potential female customer on a lounge chair by rigging the wiring to fold her up in it... a very funny scene, unfortunately missing here. Never mind, there is so much more to this set and with the extras and good price, you will have many hours of fun on this one.The family will find it funny but be warned, Mr. Bean does appear naked in a couple of scenes.... but no one would dare want to look at his little body anyway, its strictly for laughs, and it works!"

+11481,1,one large flaw!,This product has a major flaw. It does not keep time. The time of day clock gains about an hour every 12 hours or so. I have to keep changing the time so that I water at the proper time.
+11482,2,My Word.......,"I found the book very entertaining. It amazes me that there are so many negative individuals out there who simply can't reward someone for having an ingenious/creative idea. From reading some of these reviews I can see that random acts of kindness are not everyone's forte' (does it matter if you gave to a homeless person, to karyn or to a more worhtwhile cause) I can only speak for myself...but when I give (regardless of where) I do it from my heart. This women didn't set out to hurt anyone, she asked and she received...ummm, now didn't someone we all know and love (well at least me) tell us to do exactly that. You go girl....And hey, to everyone else...give it a rest on the the literary critique, it's a lite read, view it as such."
+11483,1,Fatuous Novel-poor plot & p.c. characters,"Ed McBain often writes snappy,""movin'on"" dialogue, but of the 5 books I have read (all highly recommended) none has a good plot, or interesting characters. Many readers praise his characters, but I find them shallow and almost always insipid and underdeveloped. This novel has good potential with a theatrical background and characters, but it goes nowhere;a budding romance between white policeman and black atty seems surrealistic to me--the atty would never be attracted to the half-bright policeman. Very p.c. Very shallow. Mr. McBain's novels are ""airplane"" or ""beach"" novels--which is fine for readers who like these kind of books, but by no stretch of the imagination are his novels ""good,"" compared, for example,to Ruth Rendell, Michael Connelly, or Reginald Hill. The 87th is dullsville."
+11484,1,Lazy season for a great show,"I really loved the first 3 seasons. They have lost some steam in season 4. If you see an early Rafi sighting ... watch the whole episode, it's worth it."
+11485,1,You blew it Stephen King,"I was totally dissappointed with this book. I expected a book to read-I watched the series, loved it. I wanted to read a BOOK, not a screenplay. Write a book-leave the television scripts out of your library. very dissappointed"
+11486,2,Writing Nonfiction,The author has many ideas I will use when I begin writing a non-fiction book this year. Most of them very practical.
+11487,2,Interior Design Reference Manual: A Guide to the NCIDQ Exam,I think the book was helpful... it broke down the sections of design well and offered up just enough information about everything to be a good guide / refresher from the days I was in school.
+11488,2,Excellent,"My daughter loves this series then got me hooked, too. Shocking, Funny, Intriguing, and romantic. Great music, too, which is always a plus. If you like One Tree Hill, I think you'll like this, too."
+11489,2,Love this item,This lotion is great and I can't find it anywhere on Long Island. I will definitely buy this again. It arrived perfectly and intact.
+11490,1,not as good as others,"this album is not as good as her other ones that i do own. the songs are all fast and to me, they all sound the same. it seems like she just put this album together too quick, and didnt think to put any good songs on it. im sorry, i love christina, but i was very upset with this album."
+11491,2,Wonderful book,"I got this book as a used, library book from amazon and I was not familiar with Mr. Dunnes writings but love his show on court tv. I usually only read autobios and bios, so I was somewhat unsure of the read but the author has a wonderful style of writing and imagery. I really enjoyed this book of three novels."
+11492,2,Great french press for smaller volumes,"My girlfriend got me this french press for Christmas. I'm a tea drinker and this press is wonderful for my use. My teas (brewed with loose leaves) come out more pure, without all the sediment that I used to get with my brew pot.I do agree that the ""3 cups"" claim is a bit odd - not sure what kind of cups they're referring to, but this french press just perfectly fills my slightly over-sized mug -- essentially one serving of tea - but this is perfect for mornings or evenings when I'm just making a mug for myself.The build quality is nice, the glass is easily removable, and the press is sturdy when sitting on the counter top.Overall I'm very happy with this La Cafetiere french press and I definitely recommend it to people who are making smaller amounts of coffee or tea."
+11493,2,"good price,",Works fine for my at home printer which is an old 4in1 printer. Just need it for basic printing and this fits the bill.
+11494,1,Don't bother,"Agree with most of the negative reviews. Baldacci's context is unbelievable and his word choices as contrived as they come. I can't believe this is the same guy who wrote Absolute Power. Moreover, I can't believe his editor still has a job. My recommendation is: don't bother."
+11495,1,"Nothing deluxe about this so called ""deluxe"" item.",It arrived yesterday and looks like something from the $.99 store. It is sealed in cheap plastic netting. The item is made of very cheap thin flimsy plastic. Could easily break and expose sharp pointed edges like little daggers. The backside which is not pictured here is hollow with very SHARP plastic edges. It doesn't stand upright on its own and you have to actually hold onto it otherwise it will fall over so don't know how you would ever put sand or water through it unless you have a designated person doing so. I will be returning the item hopefully no one else has the hassle of doing that.
+11496,2,Loved It!,I loved this one as much as the first. I can't possbily say enough about this love story. I could read this series again and again.

+11499,1,Chairman of the Bored,"Carrot Top brings the annoying to new heights in ""Chairman of the Board."" He stars as Edison, an inventor who loves to surf and finds out that his ideas are being stolen by the evil new CEO. There are numerous unfunny sight gags-including one that involves the evil CEO eating office supplies. Carrot Top,who looks like the carrot/root vegetable male version of cat lady Joycelyn Wildenstein, saves the day with his strange car and realization that his Glow Goo was being used against him.Raquel Welch makes a thankless cameo,one wonders if she was nostalgic about ""Myra Breckinridge"" in which she starred as Rex Reed's feminine alter ego. Courtney Thorne-Smith stars as Carrot Top's hapless girlfriend,and there's a disgusting love scene at the end that gives heterosexuality a bad name.""Chairman of the Board"" is engrossing in a bad way. It's so bad you can't tear your eyes away. Since it is full of tired jokes,""Chairman of the Bored"" is more fitting."
+11500,2,Saves money,Was described perfectly. It is used in our camper and it saves buying ice and the gas it takes to drive to a store to purchase ice. It is quick. A little noisy.
+11501,2,War With Grandpa,I like this book because it is funny. It's about a boy who had to give up his room for his grandpa. They started a war. Grandpa had problems with his leg but he succeded on the war. Peter has a little sister named Jenny and a mom and dad. Whenever Peter does something to his grandpa he gets back. And one time grandpa took Peter fishing. If you want to know more read it.

+11504,2,John Barleycorn by Jack London,"If you want to know about Jack London, this is the book to read! He talks about many events and adventures in life with his not so nice buddy, John Barleycorn(whisky). The book can be a lot of fun as he talks about his adventures when he was young and yet it's very sad in other areas regarding the loss of many of his friends due to alcoholism. And the book is disturbing how his thinking becomes haunted and depressed as he becomes a serious drinker when he is older. He tries very hard throughout the book to fight John Barleycorn and his strength, honesty and sincerity is an inspiration. I couldn't help but compare this book to Craig Fergeson's American on Purpose book. It's extremely amazing to find these guys rise out of the clutches of John Barleycorn."
+11505,2,great for the price,"This is a great dresser for the price. Good size, not too hard to put together. The only down fall is the plastic sliders that slide the drawer open and close. Other then that I am happy with it :)"

+11507,2,Worth Your While to Shop Around for These,"Purchased these from a non-Amazon (local) store. All I can say is, shop around before you buy. There is as much as a 50% difference in prices! As far as their quality, the adjustability sets these far above any other saw horses I could find. I was able to adjust their height to match my non-adjustable Black & Decker Workmate 425. I set the Workmate between the two saw horses. In this way,I could support both ends of the lumber, whether crosscutting or ripping, without fear of their sagging or breaking prematurely. The result was very smooth, splinter free cuts. I am quite pleased with this purchase."
+11508,2,Dramarama-One of a kind.,"This collection of Dramarama songs showcases all that was this talented band from N.J. The music could make you rock, or just stop and think.It truly was alternative music. It was an alternative from all the same old pop formula songs that became stale 15 minutes after being heard on the radio. Dramarama was different. Easdale spoke to his audience, on a personal level. Kind of like Cobain, but different, more East Coast street smart and savvy. The band had some commercial success, most of which is showcased on this fine collection. However in the end, maybe Easdale himself put it best when he said it(the Dramarama years) was ""senseless fun""."

+11510,2,Like your grandma sitting on the backporch talks,"I went to an all-Texas MeetUp in Austin last weekend. Texas BookCrossers came from all parts to eat lunch together and swap book stories. ""What's your all-time must-read-before-you-die book?"" I asked. Two different BookCrossers named books by T.R. Pearson. Each was amazed to find there was another Pearson fan in the immediate vicinity. So, well, mercy, I had to read Polar, a book that's been languishing in my TBR for months.JennyO described this book perfectly at the MeetUp. ""It's the kind of book where the author rambles around for forty pages and has actually written two pages of plot."" Moreover, JennyO went on, ""T.R. Pearson writes like your grandma sitting on the backporch in the summertime talks."" Recommended."
+11511,2,Easy to read,"I enjoy the KJV of the bible, unlike other versions that change the wording and sometimes the meaning. This was a good buy."
+11512,2,Veggie Tales,Always a good buy. My grandkids ages 2 to 8 watched it several times when they first got it.
+11513,1,Vapid waste of time.,"Sean Connery in demanding script control and executive production credit has RUINED an amazing story. If you enjoy simple, predictable, FX fireworks and explosions, then by all means check this title out.If you read and loved the original brilliant Alan Moore graphic novel then steer clear of this sad example of how to butcher a great story to suit one actor's vanity.He took a fragile, beautifully flawed character and turned him into just another action hero clone."
+11514,2,review,"good sturdy construction, though it is a little hard to deploy the thing to is full lenght, nothing a drop of wd 40 wont solve."
+11515,2,Much safer than plastic!,I am slowly changing all my food storage containers over to glass instead of plastic. Glass is much safer to store your food in (especially when heating food). This was a great value and over all I am pleased with the set. A couple of the bowls have a slight odd shape to them which can make it tricky to get the lids on.
+11516,1,An insult to poetry,"Mr. Hofstadter doesn't know the first thing about the art of poetry; and he seems to think that obvious rhymes and an unbending, irritating sing-song meter suffice to reflect Pushkin's peerless music. This is an amateur's hack-job of translation, including some of the most horrendous word usages I have ever seen in print."
+11517,2,simply put steel prophets best,"I have all of steel prophets cds,and this is different compared to the rest, its still heavy, but with a more melodic sound,and i LOVE IT! Love the change ups from melodic to heavy and they do it tastefully.Dont get me wrong all of Steel Prophets cds are good,but this one is great.A must for all metal fans of helloween,gamma ray,angel dust,freedom call."
+11518,1,"Bad, very bad film",If this is Indy film making - you can have it. GoreGoyles: Mutant Edition - is nothing but trash. The acting was very poor. I'm sorry - there is nothing to say - other than don't wast the two hours it will take to get through this - it is BAD!!!!I am so glad I saw this on netflix and did not waste a nickle on this film - these people should be put in prison for corrupting the art of film making - the sound track - was horrible - you could see the boom and mic in some of the shots. What as waste of time. None of these people will ever get a real acting job - they are just that bad!!!!!!Larry - horror fan. The old time B horror movies are so much better than this junk. P.S. this film gets one star because I can not give it none-yes NONE - it is truly that bad!!!!
+11519,2,The Winged Prophet,"This book is a fantastic read - it's passionate, poignant and well written. The research done to write it is obviously extensive and thorough - Carol Miller certainly did her homework! even though the subject is highly intellectual, it's an easy read - great for a flight or a trip to the beach."
+11520,2,Sovereign Grace.....,"Absolutely priceless and a great value, especially at this price. A very worthwhile additionto my Kindle ereader inspirational library."
+11521,1,Not worth the effort,"I've been using this product for 2 and a half months and I've noticed absolutely no difference whatsoever. I've been hanging in there to give it the full 3 months like the directions suggest, but so far there has been nothing, absolutely NO CHANGE in the tearing or the staining. I don't think I'll keep buying this product (wish I'd saved my money), but it does seem to work for other people. Also, my toy poodle is 5 1/2 months old so there could be more tearing because she's teething, but it should be indicated on the product(which it isn't) that teething will hamper the effectiveness of the product, if that is the case here."
+11522,1,Don't buy them,"I am amazed that all these so-called health foods will add artery-clogging ""palm kernel oil"" as an ingredient. Don't buy anything with palm kernel oil, cocoa butter, and anything hydrogenated!! No matter how many ""organic"" things are added to it.For many years now, it has been established that palmitic acid carbon atoms increase the risk of coronary heart disease. The World Health Organization in its report states there is convincing evidence that palmitic oil consumption contributes to an increased risk of developing of cardiovascular diseases."
+11523,2,loveable characters,"I enjoy this movie more and more when I watch it. You either love it or hate it like opera. There are subplots and the parents are precious. I wonder if this movie isn't based on some real life situations since most of the movie has characters that are similar to people I have met in real life. Even I have had to move back in with my parents for a while. Face it, who doesn't want to get naked if the opportunity presents itself. Who hasn't had thoughts of wanting to get rid of pesky animals? Who doesn't know people who are geeky, aggressive, silly, unpredictable? In other words, plan to watch this movie with an open mind and have fun with it."
+11524,2,Don't miss this wonderful composer!,"Rachmaninov greatly admired Medtner and sponsored him during some hard times following the Russian Revolution.I read that Medtner was considered a ""composer's composer"" by his contemporaries. That seems like a great endorsement!"
+11525,1,Not So Perfect,"Upon receipt, I noticed one earring had residue on it as if a label had been removed. These earrings are nice, but rather thin in weight and certainly NOT a perfect fit. I am not confident about the clasp which is rather thin. As another reviewer mentioned, the earrings sit on the ear leaving the post somewhat visible so these will be returned."
+11526,2,Word can't discribe the item,"When receiving the cd holder expecting a small and thin item, but when opened it stood out in the crowd. No mistaking the OCC logo & the Orange County Choppers on the other side. Still a good 5 star rating from me"
+11527,2,Awesome!,"When I heard that Cradle of Filth would be touring UK with the re-united SABBAT, I had to go and listen again to all their albums!!!Sabbat were great! Their sound unique. The voice raw!You should also buy ""History of a time to come"" which is my favourite, by the way!I didn't like ""Mourning has brocken"" and that was the end for me... very sad because I really liked them!I wish they would come to US with COF!!I remember seeing them live when I was in Italy. They were touring with Manowar in 1989... they were great!!!"
+11528,1,"Misleading, not worth the money","I bought this book thinking there would be color illustrations and a diagram of the large Abalone Strips piece featured on the cover. Nope. The only color illustrations are the front and back covers. Inside, the book is black and white and please note: there is no diagram for the Abalone Strips piece. There are directions on what patterns to sew the strips, but you have to draw the piece yourself. I bought the book so I didn't have to draw the piece! Sheesh."

+11533,2,Everything is not for everybody this book is defiantly for me,"I purchased this book just this week and I can't put it down finally after spending lots and lots of money on diet books only to be disappointed I finally got the book with some answers about stress and fatthis book explains so thoroughly and accurately the ""whys and how's"" of my body and why I was holding on to the weight. This book is great!! don't wait until you are 40 buy it now you won't be sorry"
+11534,1,Not compatible with XP SP3,Do not buy if you have XP Service Pack 3 as this product will not work. After 1.5 hours on the 'phone last night with Linksys tech support they were able to tell me that I had to roll back to SP2 or to buy a different Linksys product. Not happy with this at all.
+11535,1,Green Irish Tweed by Creed Cologne for Men 4.0 oz / 120 ml Millesime Eau de Parfum Spray,"I love creed cologne's and this is my fourth one. To me it does smell pretty similar to Davidoffs Coolwater. I know, I know dont hate but they are very alike. The Creed is more complex as it wears in but again, reminds me of Coolwater. Sad to say, this is the first Creed I do not really care for. It seems to fade fast so is it possible I got a knockoff? The bottle looks authentic and has a ser# on it. Is there a way to verify the Serial #? OTOH, the Coolwater is used lasted much longer than the Creed....Not sure but I plan on going to Neiman Marcus where I live and going to sample all the creeds they have to compare with the stock of colgnes I have now to see if I have gotten duped. Willing to give it another chance when I get to the store. Keeping fingers crossed."
+11536,2,The Best TV Show Ever created!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!,"Though i've never seen the tapes,the episodes r so cool.the battle between Goku and Vegeta is awesome!!!!!!!And young kids will like this saga beacause of all the humor.If u want to see a action packed cartoon watch DragonBallZ"
+11537,1,Missed some interesting stories,"Mr. Manso researched this book for ten years and apparently forgot to mention Marlon Brando's involvement with ""Rebel Without A Cause"". He either did a screen test for it or shot scenes which were not used (the footage can be seen in the special edition of ""Streetcar""). It's interesting stuff and even includes a brief interview with a shy Brando between takes. After I saw the footage, I looked up ""Rebel"" in the Manso book. He completely ignored it! Poor research or poor judgement, I say."
+11538,1,It deserves no stars.,"All copies of this book should be recalled, covered in gasoline, and burned. It's disgustingly ironic that a heartless rapist would name his autobiography ""Touched."" The only thing more revolting, the only thing that makes me cringe more than this book, is Jerry Sandusky himself."
+11539,2,Just as good the 2nd tie around,"After having read this book more than ten years ago, I was inspired to revisit it for an inspirational ""boost"". This book did not disappoint. Lots of inspirational stories and examples of people of color who have achieved their dreams/ goals.A very good read. Very motivational and encouraging."
+11540,2,Beautiful!,Shaina Noll has a lovely voice and her song selections are excellent. Each song is melodic and has a beautiful message. Peaceful and relaxing to listen to. Uplifting.
+11541,2,Entertaining,"Entertaining characters, twists & turns and adventures. I saw much sooner then he did what was actually happening--he was being really dumb about the people and what they were doing."
+11542,1,Kind-of boring,"The songs are mostly ballads. They sound very similar to one another. I had a hard time listening to the album in its entirety.Buy her self-titled album or ""Crossroads"" or ""Telling Stories"" instead."
+11543,2,Amazing Discovery,"I found this title in a used bookstore and purchased it immediately because of its chapter on the Black Mulberry, a mysterious fruiting tree growing in my backyard. I soon discovered that it had a chapter on the Asian Pear, another tree I had on my property. The book continued to fascinate me and soon I was looking for the current, elderberry, persimmon, strawberry, and wild blueberry species for my garden. So many of us urban dwellers garden, but fewer and fewer of us remember our society's original purpose in doing so: to enjoy the pleasures of eating. Most of the species are available from Raintree Nursery in Morton, WA."
+11544,2,Amazing fragrance!!,I love this perfume. The fragrance is amazing and long lasting! I would highly recommend this product. Amazon was also the best price I could find.
+11545,2,WHat more could you ask for?,"... as the title suggests, this is the end-all of colanders. Very speedy in draining, which when you are blanching and cold shocking vegetables, or draining a delicate pasta, speed is of the essence. The number of holes in this colander rapidly drains any liquid and it's also perfect for straining a slurry or other thicker-than-water concoction."
+11546,1,easier to just use the shell,I used this for a little while but it was more hassle than it was worth. It worked okay for the part of the egg yolk that was runny but the thick portion close to the yolk would not want to go through. You have to shake the separator and hope you shake it enough for the egg white to pass but not so hard that the yolk breaks and the entire thing just falls through. I used this product for a few weeks and then went back to just rolling the egg yolk/white from one half of the shell to the next to separate the yolk from white as this was faster and easier.
+11547,2,HIGH PRIEST,"I RECENTLY PURCHASED THIS BOOK AND I WOULD HAVE TO SAY IT IS WRITTEN WELL AND THE INFORMATION IS HELPFUL, IT IS A BOOK THAT EVERYONE SHOULD HAVE ON THEIR BOOKSHELF AND THE SPELLS ARE EASY TO DO. THEREFORE PURCHASE ONE."
+11548,1,Really unpleasant flavor and texture,"I am not a picky eater and generally like most of the meal replacement and snack bars that I've tried, but these had a really unpleasant taste at the end, and the texture was not good either. Unfortunately, I now have a box with 9 remaining bars that I would not eat under any circumstances."
+11549,1,Still Lousy After All These Years,"The issue isn't whether this or that transfer is better or worse: this is a bad film that no amount of after-the-fact tinkering can save. Not even the great Ustinov can rescue this sprawling, miserable mess. The acting is cloyingly annoying, the story telling lurches like a carriage missing a wheel, the title role is filled by an actress who could put hummingbirds to sleep, and the music is like having a cream pie pounded into your ear. The crowds and critics were right the first time when they declared this film a flop upon its initial release. It's still a flop."
+11550,1,Boring slow wack,"never judge a book by its cover. I saw the cover and with all the high rating I figured cover looks fun, might have routines where your joints will be flexed, exercise will be applied repetition and strength will be obtain . Ohh was I wrong. It just scott sonnon in an empty room solo telling you and showing you some totally boring exercises . what a waste of money . Maybe if your an elderly , or middle age individual I'm sure it might work for you , but even then you should challenge yourself. The saying ""there's something for everyone "" surely didn't apply to me . There was nothing for me with this dvd."
+11551,1,D-Link 2100 don't buy this product,"After 6 hours with tech support, I got my power point slides to show.They looked real good...but when streaming video from power point or the dvd the image from my planar projector was real jecky. My Dell laptop runs vista & there are problems with the D-Link software...I mean lots of problems.This concept is great, but this product is not."
+11552,1,Chuck Does Not Fit Bits,"This must have been designed for ""foreign"" bits. It does not fit my spade bits. It is also ""flimsy"" - in trying to use it, the chuck broke. Spend more - get a good one."
+11553,2,I loved it! Great characters and a really scary story!,"This was as good as a Stephen King novel. Really original, scary and my favorite book in a long time.Go buy this!"
+11554,2,The perfect way to improve your vocabulary in a few months,"I purchased this book a couple of years ago with the desire to improve my vocabulary before leaving college and entering the business world. I had low expectations, and they were met and exceeded. Here are some of the high points:- The book includes a beginning examination to test your vocabulary prowess.- Each chapter groups words together that have the same etymological background. This is key in helping you remember definitions in the long run.-Each chapter teaches/tests the pronunciation, definition, and forms of each word.Overall, you cannot go wrong with this text. The only behavior I strongly suggest is that you do not take a break from this book. It becomes very difficult to jump back at a later time."
+11555,2,HTS 2600 MKII PowerCenter,Excellent product and the audio quality improved so much. Even my wife can tell the difference. Only problem I had is my speakers are powered and there is not enough hi-current plugs to fix my two speakers and the receiver. I strongly recommend this product.
+11556,2,Abraham Villagrana review,"The name of this book is ghost camp by R.L Stine. This book is fictional a lesson. T he book s theme is to scare people and teach people kids went to have fun in the summer but when they were there strange things started happen. But sooner or later they found out that the campers were really ghost. So they tried to get out but only one camper made it out.This book is a book of mystery because they give you clues along the way. Which made me want to keep reading it even more. It is also kind of scary, there were great passages where I could imagine what was going on. But I think this book is a interesting, and most of all it is entertaining. I recommend this book because it is a very scary, interesting and has a lot of big and sophisticated words. But for me it is a very cool book."
+11557,2,Great book,This book is an outstanding value for the money. Extremely interesting with great photos. It arrived very quickly and in great shape.
+11558,2,"Inspiring, Informative, and Insightful!","Please let me join the lengthening parade and climb aboard the band wagon. I like this work. As to whether it is merely a pale reflection of Catton, Foote, et al, or if it is a plowing of new ground in Civil War work, only time will tell. I thought it was a bit pricey, though."
+11559,2,Works great for thinning or thin hair!,"I use the shampoo, so thought I'd try the spray. I work just a little of the spray through my hair before blow drying. It adds a lot of body, making my naturally thin, baby-fine hair appear to have twice the volume.Once my hair is styled, I again lightly spray, which does a great job of keeping it in place without making my hair stiff. Please note the word LIGHTLY.I notice less breakage, and less hair loss to boot. I also like the fact that both the shampoo and hair spray are natural. In short, I plan on being a steady customer, and would recommend the shampoo and spray to anyone."
+11560,2,Good Basic Information,"I found this book to offer a very sound, common-sense approach to the perimenopausal years. Covering a variety of topics from symptoms to diet to health risks and prevention, it's a wonderful base for all of my other reading on this very well-published but not always well-written topic."
+11561,1,"Ewwww! Low on chocolate, high in bland/bean flavor","I love the Betty Crocker chocolate chip cookie mix, but I can't have it anymore due to the milk in it. I also tend to like Bob's Red Mill products. I was excited to see this was a mix I could have. Despite other reviewer's advice to not try the dough, I did. It tastes just like a bean. I decided to add some vanilla and a little brown sugar. I tried the dough again, EW! Still awful. Unfortunately I was out of my allergy-friendly chocolate chips because this mix desperately needed some more chocolate chips! I cooked them hoping the flavor would improve. Taking other reviewer's advice, I cooked them a little long because the reviews said that is what makes the bean flavor go away. (Why not just use beans to begin with Bob's Red Mill??) I just ate a warm cookie, and while it wasn't so ""beany"" anymore, it wasn't good. They are very bland."
+11562,1,Wade Paulsen's Review,"We have no idea what the record is for the largest percentage decline in sales between one commercial single and its follow-up in the first week of release -- but whatever it is, American Idol 2 winner Ruben Studdard may have just broken it.Unless and until Ruben decides to step it up a notch and stop settling for mediocracy, he will never make it. Everything he does sounds the same...Quite boring."
+11563,2,All Aboard! A history of Railroads in Michigan,Not in the greatest shape but then it wasn't designated as such. It was basically what I expected and was ordered for the information in it not so much for how pretty it was. The order was timely and priced correctly for what it was. I would not hesitate to buy here again.
+11564,1,Love Daddy,Reads like written by a newspaper reporter-No personal feel for the victims. Not even pictures of them! The last Carlton SMith book I will buy.
+11565,1,Wish I could give it half a star.,"The Gypsy Boys need to get back in the wagon and go back to wherever they came from.Unrealistic, stupid, poorly acted, cheaply filmed, God where do I end?Only the cute Cuban boy (Manny?) pulled off a credible performance; and due to this they had him kiss two of the most unattractive men in the American film industry's history! Not to sound superficial, but the men that he was attracted to (the Nazi and the Grandpa) were so unrealistically under his league that you cringe when watching (literally!)The cheap dream sequences, the really bad jokes, I wish I did not buy this DVD and instead spent the money on envelopes and stamps to write hate-mail to the cast.Please save your money! No disrespect to Amazon, but don't spend your money on this, they have MANY fantastic films you can buy: go look for them!"
+11566,2,THE INSPIRATION BY YOUNG JEEZY,I LOVED HOW SOON I RECIEVED THE CD!! I WAS VERY VERY PLEASED!!! I LOOK FORWARD TO BUYING AGAIN FROM THIS SELLER
+11567,2,Splendid Performances of Schubert by Schiff but....,"I concur with an earlier reviewer who wasn't impressed with the sound quality of these early 1990s digital recording of some of Schubert's most familiar shorter works for the piano. However, I still highly recommend it based solely on Andras Schiff's beautiful playing. I've had this compilation sitting on my shelves for over a year and finally had a chance to listen to it a few days ago; despite the recording's flaws, Schiff's playing is majestic, poetic, demonstrating his empathy for Schubert's music. Both sets of Impromptus are played with ample dignity and grace; the same holds true for the Landler (waltzes) and Moments Musicaux. It's a pity that Decca's usually high fidelity standards weren't in evidence here, or else I would say that this two CD set would deserve recognition as among the finest recordings of these Schubert pieces currently available."
+11568,1,don't waste your money,We bought these traps to catch some stray cats and transport them to a rescue organization. The first problem occurred when we tried to set them- they would NOT set. Every time we tried the hook came loose when we let go of the door. A little fiddling with pliers took care of that- the hook stayed put and the trap sprung as expected when tested. We put the trap out and it broke the first time a cat sprung it. The entire metal arm on the outside of the cage was bent out of shape and no amount of repair attempts could fix it. We weren't able to use the trap a second time. Big waste of money.
+11569,2,Baseball and the Civil War - A Winning Combination!,"When you take two pieces of American history like baseball and the Civil War you are bound to have an interesting book. Mr Dyja has written a wonderful story that not only desrcibes the horrors of the war but uses baseball as a way for the north and south to get together outside the battlefield. Who will betray who? That is the central question as the story plays itself out. The battles are deadly for both sides and the play by play of the games is done with edge of your seat excitement. I would be interested to know if this book was based on any type of facts or is it just a wonderful story. If you are a civil war buff, a baseball fan, or both - you will enjoy this great book."
+11570,2,Best book for amateurs,"As long as you're not interested in fruit wines, this book is the one to get for serious beginning winemakers (like me). It's technical in a practical way, with good charts and conversion tables, but very little of the heavy bio-chem stuff that lies beyond this level. Iverson also has the best ideas I've seen for implementing more advanced methods (like extended maceration) with home equipment. More photos would be nice, as would a more detailed description of troubleshooting via sensory analysis, but overall Iverson rates at least 4 stars."
+11571,1,Be careful using it !,"Purchased this adapter so I could load information on a new SATA drive before installing in the laptop.NO instructions come with the adapter, but use SEEMS very straight forward... plugs only go in one way.Literally, SMOKE came out of the drive when I plugged it in (and an awful smell of something burning). Either the adapter is defective or I should have only used one of the cables...no way to know, but I'm pretty certain that the brand-new drive was good. Had to get a NEW drive, as this one was damaged by using the adapter.Not blaming anyone, just WARNING anyone trying this product to get DOCUMENTATION before using it...NO useful information comes with the unit.Find out WHICH plug to use, where power goes (which pin, etc)...Haven't heard of this kind of problem from others reading reviews, but I'm certain I couldn't have been the only one.Good luck !"
+11572,2,Buy a few for the special folks in your life,"I just grabbed this book for my 18 yr old son who is off to college. I didn't even read it, just knew he would browse it cause MJ wrote. Before I sent it off, I read it and WOW. Only 30 something pages and powerful. No nothing new, just straigt talk. I'm looking for a few more to send to the other special graduates in my life. I think it could change your life if you keep it simple and apply his example to life. If nothing else, it gives hope that hard work pays off.G's Mom"
+11573,2,A Great Doom Metal Band,"When I heard about Yob being signed to metal blade I thought great! a doom metal act that'll get exposure. Before Yob I don't think Metal Blade had a doom metal band since Trouble. But I did wonder, what kind of doom metal band would Metal Blade sign? Whoa! Musically I would say they have a stoner/doom feel to them, but they don't have a huge drug user image about them. The music is true doom, slow and heavy, with very long songs and very few songs. If you like doom metal, you will like it. If you are just a true metalhead, you should still give them a listen."
+11574,2,Fun!,"The songs are on here are actually really nice. We bought this for our 2 year old, but I like the CD myself!"
+11575,1,Nice pictures.. battery life is short among other things,"I wanted to upgrade to a newer camera, but can't afford to pay [$] or more for a better camera. So, I figure I'd try Argus' DC3500... It takes nice pictures even in low light. That is about the only thing I liked on it.Batteries lasted only a couple of days. They give you 4 AAA Kodak batteries. You'd probably have better luck with rechargeables.When you want to download the pictures to your computer, you have to plug it in with the USB and go into a temporary folder, that pops up, to get them. Then you have to save them to another folder on your computer or in MGI PhotoSuite to be able to do anything with them. REASON: when you disconnect the camera, the folder disappears. (They tell you this in the manual)Overall, I liked my Kodak DC3200 1.2 MP digital camera better. It didn't have good resolution, but was more user friendly."
+11576,1,REALLY VULGAR,"This may be the worst movie I've seen in my life (not taking ""Pretty Woman"" into consideration :).Trash at its best. But not good trash which can be funny and entertaining. Here everything's dead serious therefore it's such a trashy trash it should've been thrown into wastes the day it had been shot. What surprised me was the acting which was pretty decent, but everything else - so stupid, I can't understand what was the purpose of making this movie at all? What were the filmmakers trying to achieve? Why? What for? What were they thinking? I wish I could pick their brains. After this film I realized I should never believe a box-cover. ""Vulgar""'s cover is rather stylish, it attracts attention. Don't you ever believe it! I guess they spent much more money on that cover than on movie production itself.Although I can imagine someone who likes this kind of flicks. Who knows - maybe it's exactly what you need..."
+11577,2,Funny as ever!!,"Love this show! Its even better when you're able to watch it at your leisure, and not always have to wait for it to air on television."
+11578,1,I should have read to reviews,"I,m upset I have had the product one day and my volume doesnt work.. I had no Idea that I would not be able to see my daughter at night.. Plus you pay more here than if you go straight to aiptek web site... I cant return it to a store I have to pay to put back in the mail..."
+11579,2,Brilliant,"I really like this story. It is a really short easy read. Steinbeck is a magician with language. He proves to be an articulate storyteller. What power, wisdom, emotion and wealth in this tale. The characters are crafted with such caution and are depicted humanely. If you haven't read this book you should read it. You'd definitely be missing out. I recommend this book to kids and adults. The themes here are greed, humanity, colonization. I was so impressed by this story. I was never interested in it before and judged this book by its cover. I had to read it for school thankfully and I think everyone else should read this, too. It is a sad story composed with beautifully and careless perfection. Deeply moving and very touching."
+11580,1,Father of the Pride,"""The Complete Series"" was excellent, that is, if I could have watched all the episodes in their entirety without the dvd stopping now and then with scrambled images."
+11581,1,50/50 Fifties,"The concept was an interesting one: half the album pop, half rock & roll. It turns out a miserable failure however because these ARE NOT the original recordings, but annoyingly mediocre remakes.Disc good for indoor frisbee only. (zero stars)"
+11582,2,"Fun ""ism""","This is a great classic. Completely clean and family friendly. Very funny and in all its light-heartedness a great lesson about priorities in life is taught. When life gets stressful, you have got to play this movie."
+11583,1,Beware of the Purpose Driven Church! It is not what it seems,"On the surface, PDC looks innocent enough. But once the curriculum is implemented in the church, there are changes you didn't bargain for. The Holy Spirit is subdued, the church is run like a corporate business. (remember, God's ways are not our ways) The sermons are boring and similar to New Age thinking (everything is based on ""how I feel""). People who don't like the changes (the spiritually-mature and Biblically-established Christians) are told to go with the program or get out! The church may grow, but the new converts are being taught only a 'positive' message. Sin, redemption, repentance are not mentioned. The whole Gospel is not preached.

+11587,1,You CAN judge a book by its cover!,"With the twin pillars of the cavernous porch and foliage overhanging the upstairs windows, the grand house looks just like the face of a venomous serpent with fangs and shifty eyes.:shudder:Vipers warn before striking, and perhaps this book serves as a warning, too. Someone with generations of arrogance and callousness bred into him should never hold power."
+11588,2,Good Movie,It was a surprisingly good movie. It would have been great if it was available in English with optional subtitles.
+11589,1,Not good enough to be worth reading,"I love reading about Drow, and so normally I am willing to cut any books about them a bit of slack. Unfortunately, this book was so bad that even I couldn't enjoy it. The characterization is bad - the one character I had any empathy for at all was a sea elf who appears in about six pages total. The character motivation is bad - many characters do things for no explicable reason but to attempt to move the plot along. The villains are bad - they don't grow or change a bit from Tangled Webs. Also, and most importantly, the storyline is bad - it is so choppy that I often checked to see if I had accidentally skipped a page. Do your pocketbook a favor and buy a different book."
+11590,1,Laughing Aloud: One Reader's Story of True Hilarity and Boredom-Defying Perusal in the Face of Denali's Silliest Story Ever!,"The more you know about mountaineering, the funnier you'll find this book. There is little to like, but much to laugh at in Ruth Ann's utterly unselfconscious self-portrait.If this were a comic novel it would be a dead-on parody of a certain strain of self-glorifying mountaineering literature. Think Nicholson Baker writing ""Into Thin Air"" from the point of view of Sandy Hill Pittman. And it starts with the twenty-two-word long title!Warning: if you're not in the mood to laugh, be prepared to be annoyed!"
+11591,1,"Stick With Physical Books, They Can't Be Deleted !","I was thinking of getting this. Since It saves space.But, upon hearing the news that Amazon can remotely deletea book purchased, and the only consolation is a refund, I decidedotherwise. Stay away from this. (Physically)own the book instead.Yup, it certainly saved space, remote deletion WILL DO that !"
+11592,2,A Fascinating Look at the Undersea World,"Even if you have only entered the water with water wings or an inflatable ""donut"" around your midriff, you may find this an absorbing and page-turning narrative. It portrays experiences of elation at the undersea world probed by the book's subjects.Alternating with this are the petty and mundane conflicts that often spoil life above the water. Many such cares are left behind under water. Unfortunately, the margin for error is narrow in diving and one small mistake can mean death.""The Last Dive"" is a compelling adventure tale with a not so happy ending, prompting the author to mediate on the nature of risk and adventure."
+11593,1,"Didn""t fit","I was looking forward to putting this on my truck, but after much studying and some xtra help i broke down and called lund only to find out this part will not fit my truck,i sent it back and recieved a full refund,,,sorry it didn't work out"
+11594,1,Too Basic,"Individuals with any experience in running a project, whether it is a small focused job or a large-scale product development effort, will find subject treatises too fundamental. The chapters lack the in-depth coverage and focus as the apparent goal is to present a broad-based overview of basic concepts in the field of project management.Here is a guideline to use in deciding whether or not to purchase this book:How comfortable are you with using the Microsoft Project software?If you are very comfortable with MS Project, I recommend that you try ""A Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge"" instead.If you have never used MS Project and/or have no idea what it does, then you should probably buy this book."
+11595,1,"Thought provoking, but intellectually dishonest","Peter Gomes has many insights to the correct approach one must take when attempting to understand scripture. He boldly challenges conventional ideas using widely accepted historical precedents. However, in more than one case he glibbly disimisses opposing arguments from other scholars by appealing to a nonexistant consensus on the difficult and controversial topics of the consumption of alcohol, the Biblical acceptibility of homosexual practice (as opposed to homosexual celibacy), and women in the ministry. To deny the existence of well supported opposition from scholarly evangelicals is not responsible. It is one thing to offer one's opinion through strong argument and Biblical support, as Gomes does, but to pretend that the opposing viewpoint is held only by irrationals or anti-intellectuals is intellectually dishonest."
+11596,1,Bombed in the box office for a reason: word of mouth,"This is an OLD script of Sam's, one that he had written during his ARMY OF DARKNESS (another poorly received film)days.In no way does it equal THE EVIL DEAD 2 for ""horror-comedy"". This simply isn't a very ""interesting"" or compelling film, which is why it died in the box office.Rent it if you must, but don't buy it -- and you'll notice that Sam barely appears on the ""special features."" If he really loved this film, he'd be all over the extras like he is on EVIL DEAD 1 & 2.Not this time."
+11597,1,Not even close!,"In all my years of reading parenting books I have never seen a book miss its mark by so far. The authors have no grasp on what really motivates good behavior in kids...teaching them to do the right thing, nurturing a conscience and helping them strengthen their capacity for self control....the struggles working parents may have disciplining their kids is only related to their knowledge about good parenting and has little to do with working! Next time these two write a book they really should take a moment and actually learn about what they want to educate the public about. In the meantime..stay clear!"
+11598,2,a good choice for me,"I love this thing. It's great if you prefer using a standard telephone over a headset.Skype is great. If you call a lot of international numbers, you'll save a ton of money on long distance. if you want to take advantage of this and have somebody in your household who really isn't a computer person, this would be a good option for you."
+11599,1,final letdown,"The genius of the Authority and the fantastic Transmet. has produced quite possibly the worst series ending story in existence. Garbage is what this is, pure garbage. I was truly insulted by the choice of scourge. Aliens. Sigourney Weaver's Aliens. Oh yeah. Quite insulting. I won't say how it ends because I want this review posted, suffice it to say that you'll be hurt and digusted. Ellis must have been possessed to write this disaster. DO NOT BUY."
+11600,1,Why abridge an important classic?,"I have not read this abridgement. I gave it two stars because it is still Douglas Southall Freeman, more or less. I have read the three volume set twice now and no doubt will go through it again in the future. In three volumes this is a classic of the genre, books that set the standards for all the others, just like Shelby Foote's three volume compendium. An abridgement of this type is for the novice set. My opinion is that everyone who is interested should get the three original volumes. I believe they can still be found or at least ordered."
+11601,2,An epic story,"The first word that comes to mind in describing this novel is ""epic"". It certainly spans a lot of time, a lot of lives, and a lot of stories. And it does so very well. Set in India through the middle half of the 20th century, it describes an environment of corruption, poverty, and fatalism that was enlightening. The characters in this novel, for the most part, are resigned to their course in life and are passive in terms of affecting change. The novel aims for sweeping grandeur, and achieves it. This are wrapped up a little too tidily in the end, but this is definitely a worthy read."
+11602,1,"Poor movie;low Budget! But, I found it somewhat amusing.","During World War II, Steve Rogers, a gimp US soldier is changed into Captain America, super soldier. He attempts to thwart Nazi Germany's opposing super soldier, Red Skull. Capt fails, ends up frozen... thaws out 50 years later and then goes after Red Skull again. Though this movie was poorly done, true Captain America fans might want to collect this flick anyway. Some of the punching sound effects were cool. END"
+11603,1,"great movie, quality of recording poor","The movie is great, truly a cult classic. This version however, seems to be a low quality, region-free Chinese bootleg version."
+11604,1,"good art, thats it","The story is hard to follow and i didnt really understand what the hell was going on. I read this book halfway before putting it down and deciding to return it because it was so bad. Instantly regret buying this book. The book is in full color, but even that cant save a lazy effort and what is possibly one of the worst manga I have set my eyes upon."
+11605,1,This Electric Youth Needs a Jolt,"The art is the reason to purchase this, if indeed you do. Oeming works in black-and-white Mignola territory here. And occasionally the script spins a nice turn of phrase or matches up effectively with the pretty pictures, in spite of itself.But it tried to hard to be self-consciously arty and poetic. It was like an early Bradbury plot written in late prose, filtered through acid flashbacks -- lyrical but disjointed. I suppose one could argue that it was a success, if it was trying to be dreamlike, but in the light of day a dream still needs to make sense upon interpretation. And this didn't.Can I describe the story? Not so much. A bitter woman, a cuckolded husband, and a neglected daughter. Is she alive, or dead? Is she able to exert influence regardless? Was it a dream? A metaphor? Brought about by a horseshoe to the head? Or ended that way? Let me know if *you* can tell.Look for it in the quarter bin, maybe."
+11606,2,Fabulous,"I own six cats and never have found a scratching post that either lasted a week or two, or that drew no interest from my cats. Within an hour of setting up the SmartCat Post, a couple of my cats were stretched out fully scratching away. Clawing at furniture stopped immediately, and I had tried so many sprays and sticky strips to make them stop ruining my furniture. I realize cats are very opinionated, and yours might totally ignore the SmartCat Post. I can only share my experience that my cats love it, my furniture destruction problem is solved, and the post is worth it's rather expensive cost."
+11607,1,Gibson,"I used to be a fan of the Patricia Cornwell, but her last few books have been very disappointing. This book is the WORST. I did not even bother to finish it.. I only gave it one star since that is as low as you can go. If I had the option, I would give if NEGATIVE stars. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY. I was glad she was getting back to the Scarpetta novel series, but this was a HUGE DISAPPOINTMENT. I am a fan no longer."
+11608,2,Read this and SWOON!,"I've read thousands of books and yet, I come back to Love in the Time of Cholera over and over again. I've given it to everyone I know and can't believe it took Oprah this long to select it. Even in translation, the language is lush and gorgeous. The sentences are simply beautifully written. Most people see this as a story of unrequited love. But I think of Love in the Time of Cholera as a tale of true and unconditional love throughout one man's lifetime, regardless of what has happened to change the course of that love's fulfillment. Read it in one sitting...sink into it. Smell the fragrance of the almonds. You won't forget it."
+11609,2,Best baseball book ever,I enjoyed reading Ball Four so much that I contacted Jim Bouton and conducted an interview with him. Take a look at my website.
+11610,1,Good for 20 Days,"Somehow I broke the headphone jack in my laptop (so that it only plays out one earphone). Rather than buying a new headset, I bought this little thing, so I could plug my good headset in via USB.It did what it was supposed to do--the sound quality was not stellar, but I was mostly using it for conference calls so I didn't mind much. I did disable my internal sound card, but I still got background static once in awhile.Then, 20 days after I first installed it on my computer, it completely quit working. The red light stopped lighting up, and no sound would play. I tried it in three USB slots and two different computers, my husband even took it apart to see if something had come loose, but no dice. For two bucks I can't really complain, but since it only worked for 20 days, I'm going to suck it up and buy a USB headset now."
+11611,2,Vexille,"Vexille is one of the movies you should watch!!!!! For what happens ,may come to pass, and if that happens,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, you be the judge!!!"
+11612,1,Narcissistic and juvenile,"The average chapter in this ""book"" is measured in paragraphs, not pages. The story could be a great one, but instead of being a story about racism in the Old South, it is a narcissistic ""look-at-poor-me, nobody-had it-worse-than-me"" fantasy tale. My ten-year-old writes more complex sentences, and is less focused on himself than is the writer of this pity party."
+11613,2,Great advice to start and to improve your running,"David got me started with my first training schedules as his book nursed me through my first 6 months of varied and interesting training. He then follows it up with all you'd ever need to know to become and expert runner at 5K to the marathon. e.g. three chapters on Interval training. Nice cartoons and injury advice was a bonus: no need to get a specialist injury avoidence and treatment book if you have Running Dialogue. Unlike most authors, he also includes nutrition advice. David backs up his advice with science and other experts. My favorite is the training heartrate calculated from your resting heartrate: Unique."
+11614,2,The Adventures of Sally (Kindle edition) is simply charming,"P.G. Wodehouse is a delight to read and if you like to feel as though you are there in the time of the story (1910-1920 I believe), then P.G. is your man. His writing is witty, wonderfully descriptive of both places and characters. Sally is a high-principled young American girl living a shabby life until she inherits a rather large sum of money. She wants everyone to be happy, and so her troubles begin. It is thoroughly enjoyable to read as Sally tries to stay true to herself while helping everyone around her."
+11615,1,r kelly's discography ends with happy people/u saved me,"tp3 reloaded and double up, do not get, complete bogus, his music has gone downhill fast, his music now represents the lame lack of substance of pop culture and teen culture, do not get unless ur a precubescent who knows jack about music and figuring out his/her hormones...actually they shouldnet get it either, it just encourages them to behave like he sings about...this dude should be setting a better example, at least with tp2.com he talked raunchiness with style. now he sounds like a horny 17 yr old begging for sex... get his older albums and you'll see wat i mean, and hear his more qulaity music"
+11616,2,This is what punk rock is all about.,"What more can I say? This is the essence of Bad Religion, and an essential album in any punk collection. Flawless."
+11617,1,Waste of time.,No one should watch this movie. poor acting bad language not much of a plot. Bad view always or most of the time looking from camera on person.
+11618,1,One of the worst Blu Ray transfers extant!,"This is awful....grainy, full of artifacts. Absolutely no effort was put into this disaster.Minus 1 million stars! I think it is in many ways worse than the DVD.This is not worth considering on blu ray."
+11619,1,Don't waste your time on this book,"This is a very disgusting novel that revels in rape, immoral sex, incidents of violence and torture. Almost all the secondary characters are ridiculously one dimensional. Most of the historical events are presented poorly and are surrounded by imagined and simplistic dialogue between real leaders of the time, none of which comes across as believable. Don't expect to learn anything from reading this pulp fiction.If your interested in Zionism and the birth of the modern country of Israel, read a real history book. There are so many great novels out there, don't waste your time on this book."
+11620,1,The smell made it unusable for me,"Let me say that I'm a John Frieda fan. I use the Frizz-Ease hair serum on my thick, curly hair every day and it works wonders. So I was prepared to like this product.I'm not very sensitive to product scents; I will use most anything if it makes my hair look good. This one is an exception, though. It smells terrible -- to my nose it's a combination of watermelon, dead fish, and baby powder -- and the smell does not go away as the product settles and dries. I couldn't even give this a second test try because it smelled so bad. It did make my hair shiny, but there is no way I could possibly use it. Bummer! I see that a couple other reviewers have liked it, though, so it's definitely a subjective matter and not everyone would find the smell so objectionable."
+11621,2,A fun game that doen't take too long to play,My wife likes to play games so I bought this as a Christmas gift. A game doesn't take long. It is a good two player game and would recommend it.
+11622,2,A fast moving drama with plenty of violence,"A police officer attracts vicious criminals like a magnet and responds with his own violence. His superiors punish him by assigning him to a police station in a poor neighborhood. He discovers that a group of policemen on the force are corrupt, involved in selling dope. The questions are: Who is involved? Are the apparent criminals really criminals? Are there police officials outside of the local station involved in the drug crimes? The story has been done many times, including by Clint Eastwood, but viewers who delight in seeing fights and fast moving car chases and judo will enjoy the film."
+11623,2,Convenient Convertible Carry-on,"I needed a convenient carry-on piece of luggage (as we all do these days now that we are being gored by the airline industry) that was soft-sided, yet sylish, and east to carry. Rick Steves has come through again! He knows how to travel and pack lightly and it shows with this piece. Practically weightless, this piece will keep your items away from the gorillas that handle the baggage for the airlines and you'll deplane and be on you're way long before the first bag comes crashing down the chute in baggage claim. Pictured as if it has internal shape, which adds weight, this bag is like a day backpack complete with hideable shoulder straps if you desire to carry the piece as luggage. And when the expandable sides are opened, will still slide under the size limits of the overhead compartments! This is strictly a ""carry-on"" as there are no wheels attached. Bon Voyage!"
+11624,2,A great game!!!,"I love this game, the best thing about it is the battle grounds. I like the battlle grounds because they have breakaway glass, you could destroy buildings such as the Ifel tower, you could also destroy trees, busses, cars, and you can also hit people. I like the weponry and the vehicles you can choose from. If you like to go all out war I suggest this game"
+11625,1,Another cheap China ripoff,So Mattel thinks their brand name is worth enough to bring back a classic toy.? But they think so little of American consumers they'll try to sell a piece of junk online where you can't see it.My brothers had the original and I wanted to get one for my son.Skip this version. China keeps knocking out cheap junk ripoffs of Classic American products. Don't fall for it.So Mattel Barbies aren't selling and you want to trade on your good name?Make Quality Products and customers will return. Make junk and you'll keep losing customers.UPDATE August 2007O Mattel and do these have lead paint on them too???Make toys in America to American standards for our children.
+11626,2,"Rubik's Cubes are tons of fun, make sure you buy NAME brand!","I'm 21 and I still love doing Rubik's Cubes. There's something very satisfying about it, especially once you get good enough to solve it without really thinking (I haven't done one in a few years, but my time now is 3min 50sec). The only warning is make sure you get a name brand one (like this one). The off brand cubes (puzzle cube, color cube, etc) don't turn anywhere near as easily as these and the stickers WILL fall off of them. I will never buy anything but a Rubik's brand again."
+11627,2,Top album,"To me, as a new fan, this is Thunder's best album. I like it from beginning to end and to me there are no fillers, just great songs from start to finish. I'm glad I had the chance opportunity to come across these guys on YouTube, and have since become a serious fan. May never get to see them live, but I'm glad to be able to hear their music - good solid hard rock with a bit of blues and funk thrown in for good fun. Even my wife likes them! Stand out tracks - title track and ""Andy Warhol Said"", and all the rest are pretty darn good as well."
+11628,2,I Gotta Go is GREAT!,"I saw these I Gotta Go potty training reviews and had to go buy one for my son. I LOVE this DVD! The concept is great. I never thought children (and parents!) could have fun while potty training. There is no stress for my son or us.He does not want to wear diapers anymore. The songs are so cute, we all sing them.I am glad we bought the DVD, the tape would have been worn out by now! I recommend it to anyone I know who is potty training their children!"
+11629,1,Robert Goulet 16 Most Requested Songs,"This might be good if I could hear it, but at the volume setting for all the other CD's that are playing, this CD is nearly inaudible."
+11630,1,dont buy it,"Its absolutely worthless, might as well spit on the car. I would rather piss on my car, than use this again."
+11631,2,Works great with my Zen,"Bough it for my Zen to use in my GM Tahoe. At first, it sounded muffled, so I turned off the SMART VOLUME and RESTRICT VOLUME in the Zen. I would give it 5 stars but the cord is super long and doesn't look so good, but it sounds great."
+11632,2,Decent,"overall, this is a pretty good cam. As a user of a dell inspiron laptop. I must say it does not clip to the screen quite as well as i would like. Don't get me wrong it clips and stays, just not as well as I would hope. Other than that, a decent cam, audio works well on it too.."
+11633,1,And I thought it might be good.,"I've never liked seeing people who give bad reviews to good things, but trust me, I know alot about video games. Despite other reviews, this is a horrible game. The fighting is jerky and has no real movement to it. The style of fighting and how could I forget, the worst controlls for any fighter game I've ever played. Trust me. Wait til August and get Soul Calibur II.Once again, I hate seeing bad reviews for good games, but this is a good review technically. Normally I would give it a zero, but thats not a choice so it gets more than it deserves."
+11634,1,Average,This book doesn't give you any detail on actual locations. Just vague stories. I wouldn't buy.
+11635,1,Not very good.,"My two year old reached up and undid the latch right after I installed the latch. If there were a higher, out of reach area on the fridge to put it it would work well but with at least my fridge,which I think is a standard size it is no good."
+11636,1,Works for awhile,"The CatStop worked for about two weeks in my plant bedding area. I watched as the cat would enter the area, hear the noise, and would dart out. I thought ""yeah, it works!"", but in the last two weeks I've found numerous kitty droppings. Apparently the cat figured out that while the noise was startling, it wasn't going to hurt him, and now he's back to his old behavior."
+11637,1,A travesty,"Having listened to the Prologue alone, I tuned out. The tuning is too high, the engineering incessantly forte all around, the allegri are too presto -- sometimes it's so fast that the music can't be heard. Incredibly brusque and unmusical, this recording cannot be recommended at all."
+11638,2,Indie Movie Makers,Every movie maker should own one of these. It covers a lot of situations easily. Very useful.
+11639,2,Definately the greatest...,"This cd is in my opinion the best nlink cd. They had time to write their songs well and the production is better than on ""Cheshire Cat"" and ""Buddha"". My favorite song is either ""Josie"", ""Voyuer"", or ""Degenerate"". All of the songs are tight but those are the best! I am a hard core punk fan and I like almost everything thats by blink, ""Enema of The State"" is not one of their better albums though. I do not care what anyone says but Blink-182 are the best punk-rockers who ever walked the face of this planet. Did I forget to mention that Tom is the hottest guy on earth!"
+11640,1,Pixel Chix Chix 2 Story House,The Pixel Chix 2 Story House was suppose to intertwine with other Pixel Chix products - I had bought my granddaughter the car that you were suppose to hook up to the house so that the person could come out of the house and get into the car and vise versa - did not work - returned this item.
+11641,1,The Absolute Biggest Waste of Money,"Its loud, blows air out from the side, so pet hair and dust go streaming all over the place, and it picks up nothing."
+11642,2,A hell of a good time,"This movie is wonderful if you don't take it seriously. The cast and crew were out to make an adventure-comedy-musical, a combination you don't see too often, and if you ask me, they did a great job. The music is the jump-up-and-dance kind, the guest star appearences, noticeably Cab Calloway, Aretha Franklin and Ray Charles, add extra oomph, and the car chase and crash sequences are a lot of fun (the mall one is a doozy!). The best part is seeing the wonderful rapport that Belushi and Aykroyd had. Watch this--preferably with a group of friends. You won't regret it."
+11643,1,Problems,"I have had problems similar to the afore mentioned as well, I don't live in a large urban area, but was unable to get it to lock onto satellites, even at 5 minutes...granted I've been indoors, but if it won't work anywhere but open air without trees, it loses most of its functionality."
+11644,1,Awkward to use. Doesn't fit larger/smaller wine bottles,Good only for use in a wine bag or other enclosed bag. The velco strip is too small so it doesn't wrap properly around many wine bottles.
+11645,2,Great Japanese Punk Rock,Love it Love it Love it. I seem to be the only one however. I saw them live and they rocked then too. If you have a chance I suggest catching their show. But in the absence of the real thing this CD is a great sub.
+11646,2,Excellent Information,The book provides excellent information about the trial process from the start to the end. It will build you up a solid background on whether representing yourself or having a lawyer to represent you. It is really worth the money on the information provided.
+11647,1,Not Free SF Reader,"I always liked the Hardy Boys better than Nancy Drew, which is perhaps not too surprising. The whole team adventure thing there is probably a bit more interesting, and perhaps a bit more freedome given to the young lads than Nancy, anyway.Other than that, a pretty garden variety kids mystery story. With these books, the title does actually have something to do with it."
+11648,2,Great read.,"This is a great book on childhood trauma, and in general. I love the stories...Still reading, but 100 pages in."
+11649,2,CD of the year,"As an Australian I am completely blown away by the depth and quality of this Album (this is not much Latin music available in Australia). I must admit I bought this CD after travelling through Argentina on holiday last year. A good album usually has 3-4 good tracks, this one has probably 7-8 that I list as excellent!. Aburrida is undoubtedly my favourite. It will probably be another 3 years before Natalia is 'discovered' in Oz, in the meantime this album will keep me going."
+11650,2,Very Efficient,I received my order in excellent condition well before christmas. I would recommend this company.
+11651,1,A WASTE OF 90 MINUTES! YOU'LL WANT YOUR MONEY BACK!,"I'll make this short and simple. This movie was horrible. I love horror films, and am a Rob Zombie fan as well, which is why I gave the movie a try. I left the theater feeling like I have just spent the worst 90 minutes of my life. ..."
+11652,1,"Beware this ""bootleg"" DVD","ROYAL WEDDING isn't on DVD yet. That's because the OWNER of the film, Warner Bros. hasn't released it yet.But several other companies have, under the ""guise"" of public domain. The original copyright on the film was not renewed properly with the Library of Congress, so the film is perceived to be public domain, although the music is very much copyrighted and every distributor of this movie is participating in copyright infringement by selling these ""bootlegs"".The companies make the money, because they're selling OTHER people's property.The people who ultimately suffer are YOU, THE CONSUMER, unknowingly buying products of inferior (worse than professional VHS) quality, thinking you're getting the real thing, because it's a DVD.Save your money. Wait until Warner Bros. gives us the real thingthing...And by the way, the movie gets 4 stars, it's the cheapo bootleg DVD that gets 1 star!"
+11653,2,Lotsa Laughs!,A comic reflection of a time period sure not to return. Moreno is hysterical as are Ballard and Weston. Definitely worth watching and good for many laughs. There is also a certain melancholy to it now given what came of these bathhouses and their denizens. For those who lived through this it certainly triggers some memories.
+11654,1,why my book's coverpage has so many scratches,"I don't know why my book coverpage has some damages. The front page was rived. The side of books has so many scratchs, It is a new condition book? That is a joke! The book condition just looks like good not new. I don;t know why looks like old book sold as new."
+11655,1,Love the movie...just wish I could actually watch it,Short and sweet...ordered the movie. It came in cracked and when I tried to return it online there was no way I could. So I will trash the one I got on here then head on base to buy one I can actually watch and return if there are issues.
+11656,1,Don't throw your money away on this.,"It arrived fairly quickly. I charged it. Used it ONE TIME. Now it will not turn on at all. Tried charging it again, no fix. Factory clearly does not test their refurbished items well. Returns must be in the original packaging for returns. The plastic bondage packaging must be destroyed to access the item. I will purchase my next shaver (not a Remington) at a local store that will take the item back if it's a piece of Junk that quits after one use!"
+11657,1,Have Not Yet Received Book,"After a month, I have yet to receive this book from seller? So I do not really have much to base a review on at this point...."
+11658,2,My son loves it.,"My son, who is a toddler, loves this thing. We were concerned at first that he might be frightened by it,but he seems to be very curious about what it is and how it works. The lights and sound effects are alot of fun as well. Once we turn it on he follows it around like it was a real dog. I recommend it."
+11659,2,Good book for beginners,"This book had good pictures and was good at keeping my little one's attention, but I didn't love that they tried to shame the dog at the end."
+11660,1,But he takes their money,"Mr. Regan criticizes his University employer for conducting experiments on animals, but continues under this employment andenjoys the economic gains afforded the University by thisexperimentation."
+11661,2,Great Product,"For a true beginner in rewiring lamps, this kit was fantastic! I was able to rewire two lamps in no time at all. . . great product (and reasonable price) for everyone."
+11662,2,"Crisp Display, Great Value","My friend just got this today. The monitor is crisp and clear. The long cord that came with it made it easy to connect to the video card and Windows ME automatically recognized it as soon as the computer booted up. I was very impressed and I know that LCD panels have come down in price, so now is a great time to pick this one up."
+11663,1,does not work,"I bought this as a ""just in case"" and just opened it but the printer does not recognize the ink tank. Will not buy again."
+11664,1,Huge disappointment,"I have come to eagerly await the publication of each Starfist book, so I couldn't wait to read this spin-off series.Wow. I was so incredibly disappointed. The story plods, then bounces about and then rights itself only to plod again. Unlike the standard Starfist series, there is no cohesion of plot, the characters are unlikeable and two-dimensional and (as mentioned elsewhere) I found myself rooting AGAINST the protagonists.It was a genuine struggle to finish the book. I will not be reading anymore of this series and will desperately hope that the regular Starfist series maintains a higher level of quality."
+11665,2,Eye-opening!,"Definitely worth watching.For a long time I've believed the gas corporations have been gouging Americans. This documentary reinforces that belief. It is very well researched and produced.There is so much evidence presented here - all I can say is ""Wow!""Sadly, I don't see any change coming. Politicians are bought and paid for with oil dollars. You can watch it in action in the video taken from recent Congressional hearings."
+11666,2,fast moving and most compelling,i felt the story was well written and a page turner. every family is a bit disfunctional but the hayes family story allows us the privacy of our own reading room to look deep within our own secrets and perhaps come to terms with them. hats off to ew summers. i hope more books will follow.
+11667,1,Not worth the time,"After reading this book in one day, my only reaction is: I want my time back. The story line and character development was stagnant. I do not recommend this book."
+11668,1,a real lemon,"My original LitterMaid I got some years ago was a far better product. Although it was noisier, the motor was stronger & it hardly ever stopped working. This model stops all the time, and if I fill it past the first ""fill"" line, not even to the maximum, it still stops all the time. I use premium litter and have followed all the directions. When I emailed the company to complain about it, they emailed me a form letter telling me all the things I need to do to get it to work (which I already do). They couldn't have cared less. I have three cats & started using the first model to save myself time, which it did. I am considering just trashing this one & getting a regular litter box, since I am always cleaning this one by hand anyway. DON'T BUY IT!!"
+11669,2,How to provide a removable liner for the 96-oz bowl,"I care for several feral cats, who sometimes share their water bowl with raccoons who live in our woods. Thus, I needed a thermal bowl with a removable liner to make it easy to rinse out the bowl regularly without unplugging it every time. No one seems to make such a bowl. I found that a 3-quart stainless steel pet food/water dish purchased for $5 at my local Southern States store makes a prefect liner. What you are looking for is a bowl that is 10 inches in diameter overall and about 3 inches deep, with a flat rim and tapering to about 7 inches diameter at the bottom. It will hang by its rim in the thermal bowl, so to insure good heat transfer, I first poured two cups of water into the thermal bowl and then put in the stainless bowl. It works like a double boiler to transfer the heat to the stainless bowl. It has kept the water ice-free on sub-freezing nights, and the cats took to it right away."
+11670,2,"Quiet, subtle charms deserve notice","If you're a fan of older fantasists (much older--William Morris, George MacDonald, etc.) then check out the High House. It unfolds with a slightly faster pace than these, but with a very similar tone (and the author knows it, and drops teensy references every so often.)The nearest comparison I can make is to MacDonald's ""Lilith"" and ""Phantastes""; if you've read these you'll know how different they are from the slash-and-quest style fantasy. If you're a huge fan of slash-and-quest, avoid this at all costs.The philosophizing is kept to a minimum, and the (should I say sketchy) ""theology"" or explanation for the House leads one to expect further delineation in later volumes--it doesn't matter, though ... the house simply is, and that's enough.Stoddard's work is kept from 5 stardom only by a certain repetition of incident as the novel progressed; a tighter plotline would be more absorbing."
+11671,1,Interesting Premise but a very poor execution,"Joe Pickett is quite a decent character for along running series and Wyoming is certainly an interesting setting.The author writes quite well when describing scenery and the dialogue between the hero and his wife and daughters is quite believable. There are lots of family scenes, however it does begin to get repetitive. His wife has now got a job so we are constantly told that she no longer cooks for the family and that the refrigerator is empty.This starts off quite well. The premise is quite intriguing. Unfortunately the more you read the sillier it gets. It is just incredibly unrealistic. People act in ridiculous ways. At times it is almost childlike in its simplicity. The police procedural and forensic elements never ring true.It does get very predictable and it seemed that the author got bored with a few plot threads and just forgot about them.The supernatural element is very poorly developed and doesn't really fit into the rest of the story."
+11672,2,Great bag for college,"I got this as a gift and I use it for school. I can fit my computer, charger, books, and iPod and I have PLENTY of room to spare!"
+11673,1,Huge Letdown...,"If you're interested in what herbs to plant in Florida, when, where, and more...don't order this book! I've been growing herbs for about two years now and thought this would help me out. The book caught my eye when it listed that it is broken up by North, Central, and South. Wonderful....however, this is the letdown. The author DOES NOT talk about all of the herbs you can grow in these three areas. The author simply visited 3-4 local nurseries/herb farms and writes about what they grew in their location. Other than this, the book had the same information about herbs as most of them do. Don't waste your time! I wish I could tell you it was great...sorry!"
+11674,2,"Perfect for the price, if your like me","Lets face it, we dont all have the dollars to throw on just any expensive camcorder...so if you want something affordable, you dont want it to be cheap. In other words, you dont want to sacrafice the price for the quality. This model has done the opposite, and made me happy to spend what little money it cost, and has had terrific results. I dont want to go into the detail like the guy before me did, but I will say that he was right about all that he said. Its really a worthwhile buy, and you cant go wrong with a great company like samsung."
+11675,1,Unconditional love for mean behavior?,"What an awful book. I see I'm the odd-ball in my opinion, but here it is: I was given this as a gift for my 4 year-old son. We read it last night, and as I got deeper and deeper into 'how badly can a child treat their parent and get away with it?' I was creeped-out and sickened.Yes, I want my son to know that if he accidentally does something wrong, it's OK and I still love him. But if he 'was the meanest bear I ever saw and...chased me into my tent and I cried?' then NO, that is not OK, and yes, that affects my feelings toward him.I want my son to learn that people like you when you do right and are kind. I'm sticking with simple concepts of right and wrong, with good and bad consequences. This book is out of my house!"
+11676,2,This Truly Does Work!,"Elemis Aching Muscle Super Soak - Deep Heat Aromatherapy for Sore Muscles 400MLI first tried this product in the Bahamas at a resort. I couldn't finish a Spa massage because my back muscles were too knotted. I was shown this product and I have been buying it ever since. It is pricey, but worth every penny. You just have to use a little, so it goes far. The product is just what it says, soak in your bathtub for 15 minutes. When you get out,you will actually feel the heat working in your muscles. I have found out I have fibromyalgia and I need back surgery. I can't live without this product. I just had to share my experience because of how much it has helped me."
+11677,2,"Great movie, keeps you guessing","We watched (my wife and I) this movie several times. Each time we have come up with a different conclusion on ""What happened next"" after the movie ended. We never could agree. :-) This movie is intriguing and will keep you guessing on the conclusion. One of my most favorite movies."
+11678,2,Love the Sound and Music,The music is wonderful. The cloud player works great. I have other music on my wish list I will be putting into the cloud.
+11679,1,Don't Buy!,I don't think it's possible to make a more uncomfortable pair of head phones. They are awful! I would recommend the Plantronics MHS213 Stereo Mobile Headset. Very happy with the Plantronics.
+11680,1,Tank leaks,Rowenta IS-8100 Commercial Garment SteamerPurchased 2 years ago. Worked fine until the water tank began leaking. The water tank design is poor. The tank cap seal breaks down as thin plastic threads strip from repeated use. There is no catch basin and water leaks out of the tank and runs down onto the floor - right over the electrical cord entry point! No replacement is available from Rowenta and they do not seem to have a repair station or address. Another contribution to our throw away society...
+11681,1,merlin mustek bearpaw scanner 1200,I hate it! I was ripped off when I bought this. How could I know that I would never be able to ugrade it to a new Operating System. You could at least write new drivers for Windows XP and Windows 2000.I feel cheated!Rose Mary Hughes
+11682,2,Another Potter great.,"The story is outlined in detail by the literary times review. It is not the run of the mill western because it deals with horrific, freqeunt betrayal and the relentless search by Rafe to clear his name. Watching him evolve from this driven man whose only emotion is hate and revenge into a man who learns that revenge isn't all he thought it would be is excellent. The fact that he is helped in this soul changing experience by the love of his enemy's daughter is also excellent. Shea also must choose between the man she loves and the father she never knew she had.Add to that great characters and incredibly dedicated male friendships that stand by Rafe throughout his ordeal and sacrifice their lives to help him and you have a really wonderful book. It's so much more than a romance. The male bonding in itself is very unique and heartrending. Pat Potter's books are rarely disappointing and this one wasn't either."
+11683,2,Remington Pro MB-400 Trimmer,"Quick and easy to use. Good blade guard for determining length of beard.Somewhat awkward to hold at different angles. On/off switch is in a ""counter-intuitive"" position - I sometimes have to search for it unless I'm looking straight at it."
+11684,1,leaves residue on dishes,This product leaves residue on all my dishes. I love my other 7th Gen products but will not be buying this one again. :(
+11685,2,One of the Best Travel Books Ever Written,"I just finished the book and it was a fantastic read. It was a fairly ""light"" book, considering the author; it was genuinely hilarious at times, and, as always, Steinbeck created an incredibly vivid, personal, and accurate portrait of the relationships between nature and society. Shades of his earlier can be seen in the prose style, and his unconditional devotion to the creation and development of images and characters can't be matched by anyone from any time.As far as a ""Travel-style"" novel is concerned, I think I liked this one more than Kerouac's On the Road...but, then again, Steinbeck was far more talented than any of the Beats -except Ginsberg (who might've been in his league, but in a junior-varsity-type capacity) and maybe Neal Cassidy.If you like Steinbeck, you will really enjoy reading this book."
+11686,1,Not worth the money; buy a good (expensive) one,"Unfortunately I sometimes have a tendency to be cheap, and then I end up a product like this. Pulled into it by my trust of the brand......I bake my own bread, and the first time I used this knife, something broke on the inside, causing the knifes not to move any more, at all. I haven't opened it up yet, but seeing how cheaply it's made, I have a feeling it is not a coincidence. Definitely not worth buying...."
+11687,1,"Journal part OK, Shopping Guide is a joke","The journal content is good, but the book is a typically-bound softcover which does not lend well to journaling (spiral-bound books which lay open flat or fold back are much better). The biggest disappointment was the Shopping Guide section which, according to the front of the book, ""features shopping lists for fat-flushing foods"". They are merely bulleted lists of foods used in each phase of the plan, grouped by category (vegetables, proteins, etc.) It would have been more helpful to have actual shopping lists by week, based on the plan menus."
+11688,1,Nugarum contemptor,"Professor Deutsch has written a book for herself and the handful of high literary critics that dot major university campuses. Sentences like the following abound: ""As Helen Thompson has recently shown--in a brilliant reading of Walter Charleton's 1688 Hobbesian rendition of the matron story as a meditation on the materialist conception of the self and the infinite substitutability of the object of desire--romance is individuality's faceless antecedent and feminine ghost, monogamous teleological narrative's serial alternative.""Skip this effort and read or reread James Boswell's great book."
+11689,1,Beware of shipping costs,"I ordered six of these, along with 2 albums, and they came from Adorama camera. After they arrived I discovered that the shipping cost was extremely high. Their policy is to charge shipping on each individual item, even though, of course, they are all sent in one package. I complained and got a partial refund on the charges, but the way they do it is clearly a rip-off."
+11690,2,"The best ""American Idol"" Compilation CD Yet.","You better watch out lol Santa Claus is coming to town. This album is great, I'm listening to this cd like, all the time lol. My favorite is Kelly Clarkson's ""My Grown-Up Christmas List"". Reading the reviews here made me believe that I would skip most of the songs but it's not the case, if you like American Idol this cd is a must have!"
+11691,2,Way too good,"Excellent product. So glad it's carried as the local ""drug store"" doesn't carry it any more. Have to ration it or I'd gain loads of weight. Actually it's not too high in calories and the flavor is just yummy. Highly recommend this for nougat lovers but be careful of any new fillings in your teeth!"
+11692,2,sink your teeth into this !,this film is the best vampire and fighting film I have ever seen and the soundtrack is superb too but warning all tracks are not on the soundtrack CD!!! im making a movie ( vampire please email me with your ideas )
+11693,1,Doesn't charge iPhone,"It doesn't charge my iPhone 3Gs. Screen message says it's incompatible and will not charge.It's not manufactured by Apple, but I didn't really care. Just wanted a charging cable and this is not it."
+11694,1,"Low quality, low price","I read many positive reviews on these sheets and shams, so I decided to give them a try. They are indeed sheets. I am giving the company the benefit of the doubt and will accept the premise that they are flannel. As far as the quality goes, one wash and they already began to pill, as did the matching duvet cover. The pilling has increased with each washing. These are not sheets you would want to put out for guests--they look worn and somewhat skanky even when they are just out of the dryer. They feel somewhat stiff but not hair spray crispy--certainly not baby soft flannel. For the price, I probably shouldn't have expected much better. For $50, I have a duvet cover, pillowcases and one sheet set. I would not buy from this brand again, even with the low price for the set. Pretty crap overall"
+11695,2,Taking women seriously,Carolyn James has done a great service to all women by writing a book that recognizes our desire to know God better and to take Him seriously. Her book underscores our need to know theology. This knowledge enables us to persevere when life's circumstances descend upon us because we can know despite the circumstances that God is good and that He is in control. I heartily recommend Carolyn's book. Read this book - for your good and God's glory!
+11696,1,Poor quality,"This product broke within a few weeks of receiving it. The seller was quick to replace it - very good customer service. However, the replacement product was no better than the first. The product itself, in my opinion, is of poor quality. Don't waste your money."
+11697,2,Dennis Hopper Does Sinatra,"An entertaining indie film, also released as THE NIGHT WE CALLED IT A DAY. The story seems romanticized in its view of Frank Sinatra's major dust up with the Aussie press. But it actually happened. Dennis Hopper's performance does sell the story while, at the same time, can be a bit distracting--simply because Hopper bears so little physical resemblance to the legendary crooner. What also makes the film worthwhile is a solid line-up of Australian players now familiar to American audiences, including Rose Byrne who was so dynamic in FX's DAMAGES and Portia DiRossi, better known for her great comic turn in ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT. Hearing them emote in their native accents, reminds us how easily Aussie thespians can handle our American inflections. Another fine player is Joel Edgerton as the young promoter who bets all his dreams on getting Ol Blue Eyes to perform down under."
+11698,2,A really good young song writter,"My girlfriend and I went to go see Jessica Simpson in concert and Ryan opened up for her and everbody loved him. He played about five songs and all of them where great they had great song writting and the music was very catchy and he has a great voice I really like ""Shame On Me"" on the new album I cant wait til his CD comes out Ryan is going to be the next big thing look out for Ryan Cabrera and buy two of his CD one for home and one for the car."
+11699,2,Good can opener,"I only rated 4stars because of the cost. Somewhat expensive compared to others. That being said, this is everything it's suppose to be. Works flawlessly. No complaints so far."
+11700,2,Great triple square set!,"I have a 2007 Vw gti. Tons of triple squares! This kit has helped me remove swaybars, streering wheel etc. Thus far they have held up great. The several times I've needed a triple square this small kit always has the right size!"
+11701,1,under counter junk,Never could get good reception no matter where we placed this in the kitchen. Just last week the CD player quit working. It actually just spins and spins forever initializing the CD. Save your money and buy a different brand/model.
+11702,2,"Almost perfect, but no!","Good music, excepting 2 or 3 of the songs, but it is really a good collection product..."
+11703,2,Kelp was just what I expected,This Swanson's kelp is a good product. It got here in good time and was as expected at a good price.
+11704,2,Must buy!,This game is addictive!! SO FUN! I have had 4 friends buy it already after playing mine. GO get it!
+11705,1,Let It Be - 2003,"I recently listened to the original Let It Be (1970) on vinyl, and this version (2003) on CD, back-to-back. To me there is just no comparison. The original is easily more satisfying. I think it's even better than Abbey Road."
+11706,2,A Great F1 Sim,"When I first played the demo I was hooked to this game's sense of speed, sound effects, and realism. So, I went out and purchased the game. In my opinion, in order for one to get the true sense driving, the car should give that little ""kick"" when the gears are switched. That is my favorite part of the game. One aspect of the game I didn't like were the graphics. I have never seen graphics where the diagonal lines are so jaggedy. It's very frustrating. That was at 1024 x 768. I increased it to 1152 x 864 and got an improvement, but I don't get the same framerates and it's still way too jaggedy, and this is run on an Athlon XP 1800+, nForce board, 512 DDR, GeForce4 Ti. Nontheless, I recommend this game to racing fans, especially to those who have a monster system to run it without jaggedness (i.e. 4x Antialiasing, which is impossible for me). The upcoming GeForce FX should do the trick."
+11707,1,Do not buy this,The pant tore after one month. Heavy Duty my ___! It wasn't worth the price. I had to end up buying another suit from someone else.
+11708,2,Stunning Collection of Essays,"I cannot praise this volume highly enough. It is seldom that I manage to get totally immersed in reading material, especially essays on a theme. This volume had me gripped from start to finish, with only one short essay as an exception. The subject matter is varied and very interesting. After many years since watching the series, I now have some understanding of the meaning behind the cult TV series, ""The Prisoner"". I had been searching for ""Tyr"" for some time, as I had been told it is a magazine. Consequently I failed to find it in several searches. Fortunately I found it by accident on someone's Heathen list. I now also have volume 2 and will be starting it soon, hoping for the same stimulation. My only question now is.....when will TYR 3 be available ?"
+11709,1,One Year? You guys were lucky!,"My roommate bought this DVD player in September and now, in November, its breaking!It will play the first half of a DVD but then it will pause, skip ahead a few seconds and then return to the menu. Most of the time it won't even READ the DVD.Terrible product."
+11710,1,One of the crappiest CD's I've heard in a long time,"I loved the Timbaland produced song ""I'll Be Around"", so I thought, ""Ya know I think I'll get the CD for the heck of it. The singles pretty good, so why not buy the album!"" And so I did.I made the biggest mistake ever. I wasted thirteen bucks on this good for nothing CD. I've heard ""I'll Be Around"" so many times now that I'm sick of it. In other words, there is no other reason to put this CD in my CD player except for that song and the Neptune produced songs, ""Art of Noise"" and ""Let's Stay Together"", which are just alright.The other songs of this so called album, are crap. This Cee-Lo guy can't even rap or sing! What will he do know? If someone can't sing then surely they must be able to rap! Well, Cee-Lo proved me wrong.Don't waste you're time or money to even think about this CD! Stray away from it as far as you can; it stinks!"
+11711,2,love the whole series,"Some of the books are better than others but none of them are worth passing up. I honestly can't understand some of the complaints about the writing or characters in the books. This isn't hemingway folks. For what these books are, you really can't get any better."
+11712,1,I could hardly stand to read it,"I know, I know that sounds bad, and heartless, but I swear it's true. Compared to Ed Greenwoods other books this one is just plain bad. Shandril is just too godlike and Narm, well he's just a battery for her infinite powers. The thing isn't even well written, characters say things that are just plain wierd. Alas go and read an Elminster book instead."
+11713,1,Decent but not what I expected,"I bought two of these expecting the long lasting, strong, stiff type. I knew they were beads but these things are barely stress balls. They can pass for them but i doubt if there will be any hand strengthing going on or whether they will work for real stress relief. They are rather soft, the beads arent pack in tight at all and they feel more like a beanie baby than a stress balls. I returned mine but I still give it 2 stars because they may work for others. More like boredom or pass the time balls but not stress balls."
+11714,1,Sucks,"Item took twice as long as stated to arrive, and doesn't work. I guess that's the gamble on cheapo items. Don't buy"
+11715,1,Another holocaust denial,"Poorly written and researched. This book was obviously written with a holocaust denial perspective. Mattogno is a widely know denier. To see a more detailed acount of this book, check outhttp://www.holocaust-history.org/auschwitz/response-to-mattogno/It shows that the information is not only bad but deliberatly deceptive."
+11716,2,Favorite Game,"This game may be eight years old, but it's by far my favorite. I used to own this game on the PS2 but over the years I've gotten rid of it, and now that I've purchased it on the Xbox I am reminded of how much fun this game is! The disc works great and the gameplay is amazing, so over all this game gets a 10/10"
+11717,2,Mandy Moore demands more from second studio album,"Mandy Moore's second studio release Mandy Moore is definitely one of 2001's finer teen pop records, proving that the failure her 1999 debut So Real brought by no means makes Miss Moore one too. Sure, none of her two singles from her first CD had such a huge impact as Britney Spears's ubiquitous 1998 No. 1 ""...Baby One More Time,"" but the new songs from Mandy Moore really shows maturity and professional growth. No more teenybopper singles here, folks; just pure, sophisticated and quite solid candy. None of the tracks on this album are anything nearly as addictive as other teen queen's materials, but they show that this girl isn't just a Britney wannabe. Great job, Mandy! No doubt this record has been named Best of 2001's!"
+11718,1,Not useful for older wallpaper,"This product is not useful for removing older wallpaper. Can damage wall board underneath and is less effective than liquid wallpaper remover. Perhaps it would work well for the removal of more modern wallpapers, but if you have multiple layers of wallpaper in an older house I would recommend the liquid wallpaper remover instead."
+11719,2,"Underneath all the blood and gore, a good book lies....","The moment I first picked up this book, I could not put it down. Yet I must admit all of the blood and gore is a quick turn off, you learn to look past it all to what really lies in this book. The plot is a real gripper. Not telling you much of nothing about what it is that is killing all of these people, dogs, and anything else that moves. But slowly but surely giving it away. I can't say that this is not a good book because in the end it all comes to another great king novel. But this one is for die hard King fans only."
+11720,1,Duped,I am dismayed after buying this from amazon. They have promised ear bud headphones but have provided the dated common headphones.
+11721,1,Buy Anne! But not THIS Anne!,"Seriously, this cover must be BOYCOTTED! Unbelievable. What part of ""REDHEAD"" didn't the cover photographer understand? This is ridiculous. No one should buy this edition--send a message to the publisher that such travesty will not be tolerated."
+11722,2,It was an excellent purchase and my husband loved it.,I chose this rating because it was an excellent choice. The coloring and material were what I would have expected it to be. My husband loved it. I would recommend it to my friends and family.
+11723,1,Poor,"Terrible. Let's a copious amount of grounds through every time - from the moment I bought it. I tried a variety of grinds. Also, Bodum refused to replace the filter. POOR POOR POOR DO NOT BUY."
+11724,2,Pretty Decent with TV,"Not sure about range - I go outside with them but can't go real far. Receiver is sitting on the tv. I've had them for some time. Only complaint I have is that the AAA Rechargeable batteries I have won't work in them. I haven't tried lithium batteries, but I plan to. For the price, they do a pretty good job."
+11725,1,Should Not Have Been Written.....,"Without a doubt his poorest written book yet...and I was an avid fan! Shallow storylines that do not resolve, and the ending...it's as though he just decided to stop writing it!"
+11726,1,Nothin' But Trouble (When Used with VAIO Laptop),"This device is probably more trouble that it's worth for those trying to pair with a computer, or at least a Sony VAIO laptop. The HD Audio mixer installed on these computers (and common on lots of laptops) conflicts in some way that allows pairing but prevents music streaming. A Sony tech helped me disable the HD Audio mixer and I was able to stream. But... as others have reported, the music drops out frequently and the music speeds up and slows down, resulting in annoying pitch bends, during playback.These quirks are device-specific. I have a Sony HBH-DS200 that suffers from none of these troubles. But, even here, weaknesses in Vista sometimes cause disconnect during playback."
+11727,1,Lame,"As already mentioned, the precision control feature causes the saw to wander. Also, although the shoe has a center dentant at 90 degrees, it's so sloppy that it is useless. Setting this thing to 90 degrees is a trial and error process requiring a square. My old $39.00 black & decker cuts better than this thing."
+11728,2,If you need guidance and healing....,Most people in this life have been hurt at least once in their lives. If not once than many times. I know that this book and the runes that come with it are a good way to help you find your way when you can not seem to hear that still quit voice. I believe that God can work through instruments as well as normal means. If you believe in God or not this book and the runes are good for guidance in both your daily life and your path of healing. It has helped me focus on my life rather than obsessing as I often find myself doing. You will be amazed what this book can do for you.
+11729,2,I love it!!!,"I was really nervous about this product after reading the reviews, but once I put the organizer up it was great. I use the top four slots for thing like mittens and cotton balls and the next two for wipes and larger lotion and bath items. The bottom is really good for several diapers. I love it!!!!"
+11730,2,Rip Capabilities of a combo blade,"This blade replaced a 24 tooth exclusive rip blade (Freud also, in the same price range). I can tell no significant difference in the quality and effort needed to rip maple. And it doesn't splinter cross grain plywood badly. Seems a good value."
+11731,1,Book seems to have been fleshed out from an old diary,"While I'm sure Mike Krutko is a heck of a guy and would be wonderful to kno w in person, I'm afraid his book is not very exciting. The prose is flat and full of useless details, like the number and species of fish he caught from day to day. Although he led an adventurous life, you can't really get a feel for it from the way he's described it."
+11732,1,didn't fit,"These ""fitted sheets"" didn't fit my crib's mattress.I tryed to return them, but they didn't answer me.My mattress is a standard size, so I don't understand.I am not satisfied at all."
+11733,2,the navaho,"i only watched this movie because i thought it would be about the american native indians and the part they played in the war. i didn't realise it would be such a minor part of the movie. had i known that i would not have watched.why the five stars, well for whatever little was portrayed, and adam beach and the one who who played whitehorse and all the other indians that took the time to be in this movie. it wasn't a total waste of energy.i think more movies about indigenous peoples should be brought to cinema."
+11734,2,my bible for headaches,"This book turned my life around, from one of chronic headache pain, to one in which I can control my headache pain if I just follow these steps in this book. No one was ever any help on this issue, until Dr. Buccholz came around."
+11735,1,Disappointment,"I already heard it on the promo, but decided to buy it anyway, just to complete the collection. I'm also a big fan of all his previous albums but this album contains to many cheap rap and mainstream beats."
+11736,2,Everyday Knife,I bought this knife after the one that came with my set somehow cracked. I'm pretty sure this was my fault as I tend to abuse my knives. I've had this one for 2 years now and haven't had any issues. I sharpen it regularly and it takes to that very well.
+11737,1,Do Not Buy - This is a waste of money,I would rather leave my floor dirty than push all the dirt to one location and watch it pile up. Do not buy this product. I got on my hands and knees when I was done to clean properly. No floor cleaner I have tried is of any value. Retailers that carry this product do not care about selling quality product.
+11738,2,Nice For The Price,"I'm on my 3rd pair - not because there was anything wrong with pairs 1 and 2 - but because the kid's expensive earbuds crapped out and they thought mine sounded better than their's had, so I forked mine over and bought more!Little plastic case was great for keeping the earbuds neat and orderly and easy to find in my carry-on bag on the plane.I'd recommend these to anyone."
+11739,1,Unflattering,These are cheep shorts so I am keeping them to workout at home in when my husband is gone!. I would not be caught dead in public in these shorts - the pockets wad-up an create the illusion of thunder thighs. Yuck.
+11740,1,World War II in the Atlantic,"The author titled his book wrong. He should have called it, ""WWII in the Atlantic"" or ""U-Boat War"". 2/3 of this book is spent in the atlantic theater. The author gives the pacific theater about as much attention as you would find in a high school history book. Disappointing how the author can spend chapters on u-boat attacks on convoys and only gives a few small pages to battles like coral, midway...etc. The biggest Naval battle to date, the Battle of Leyte Gulf, gets next to no attention in this book. Save your money, pass on this book."
+11741,2,delightful,"My daughter introduced me to this series, I was initially sceptical but went on to enjoy this throughly. What was most striking was the unusual story line, which was as funny as it was comical. The two lead characters were very well matched and both gave a delightful performance, the supporting cast did not dissappoint. The important life lesson here being -""what a tangle web we weave when first we choose to deceive""- this was very aptly depicted in Lie to me. To untangle the web of lies required humility and in this case a healthy dose of love and affection. It helped that in the course of the pretence and lies, cupid's arrow had made its mark on the two and this made for a very entertaining series. If you love Korean dramas, this is one for the keeper shelf."
+11742,1,"Unimaginative, cliched and boring","The writing is labored and much of it seems like it is written by a below average student in a BA-level creative writing class. Merullo just can't write a scene in a natural and logical manner; he has to add hoary cliches like a disaster on the first date and having the protagonist punch the Governor of Massachusetts the first time he meets him. This seems like a novel of a macho male fantasy that doesn't have the least idea of what an intimate relationship is like between a man and a woman. I wouldn't recommend this book to anyone because I believe that fiction writers have a responsibility to make their work believable and make art out of the ordinary, or what is considered ordinary. Merullo fails miserably on both counts."
+11743,1,Another dissatisfied customer,"Unfortunately I have to share the pain of other people here who thought this to be a fantastic machine at start, but were very disappointed after 2 weeks. The aeroccino just stops working, the milk stays cold, it will not run for a full cycle, it's too small for even 1 cup of coffee so you have to do 2 rounds and it spills very easily. I even called to complain and got a new replacement, which was good again for 2 weeks, but after that showed the same exact symptoms.Don't buy this product, you are guaranteed to be disappointed."
+11744,1,Seiko Company Sucks,"This ""was"" a great purchase - I thought. But after less than a year, the watch band broke. This IS covered by the warranty, but the customer service person at Seiko was a nightmare. She said that the watch band was obviously twisted, and basically, called me a liar. Nice Seiko! Good way to treat your customers!!"
+11745,2,Awesome,I really like this little gadget. It's fun and easy to use. Easy cleanup too! I couldn't quite keep them coming as fast as it states so everyone ate dinner before I could join them but we still liked it!
+11746,1,"Interesting, but not helpful","When my daughter suffered a deep depression, I read this book and found it spectacularly unhelpful. The author has done a study that revealed a bunch of interesting facts about how mental illness runs in families. But the underlying tone of parent-bashing that pervades this book will make you feel miserable if you're a parent with a child who has problems. Parents and so-called ""bad parenting"" do NOT cause every problem a young adult encounters in life.This book may be useful for adults whose parents had mental problems. And it may also be fine for siblings. But if your child has mental problems, I'd strongly advise turning elsewhere for help. You won't find it here."
+11747,2,Return of the Eagles,"One of four books written by Follett about German POWS in WWII. It was great reading and I highly reccomend it along with the other three sequels. I have since read most of Folletts other books such as Ice, Sabre and have enjoyed them all. Hard to put down. He is a great writer. r"
+11748,1,mostly horrible,"I agree with the ""Horrible"" review that this album and ""A period of transition"" are the weakest of the early Van recordings, however, I am holding Van to a standard that most artists can't approach. While it is rather light and too pop for my taste I disagree that this album is not worth owning. Like a period..., Wavelength has a couple of tracks that will rock you enough if you really need a Van fix. Buy this album after you have 7 other pre-1980 Van/Them albums."
+11749,2,women's aura jeans,I love these jeans!! The fit is fantastic and they are very comfortable. It would be very helpful if they were available in a petite length so I didn't have to hem them. I just bought another pair. They are really hard to get and this is the first time they have been available since I bought the first pair in April. I wanted to get two pair but only one was available.
+11750,2,Good ending,At least the end to this series dosn't disapoint. It's not what you exspect but it's good and leaves it in a good place
+11751,2,WORTH A LOOK!,"Good to see all these guys getting together again for this movie...nice little ""quips and quotes"" in the dialog from individual past films...it is what it is....good fight scenes..and they win in the end..Stallone didn't get the girl...but that last look was there..."
+11752,2,"Lots of fun, but some work too",This ball was a lot of fun but it was very heavy and required quite a bit of muscle to roll it around. We sat in a circle in chairs and rolled it with our feet. You can not throw it or toss it. It is just too heavy. The ice cream was great though. We made plain vanilla. Very rich and very sweet if you follow the included recipe.
+11753,1,If you know anything about html don't purchase this book!,This book boasted that it was for everyone from beginner to advanced. I found this to be completely untrue. I have a limited knowledge of html and was totally unimpressed. The CD also claims to have hundreds of templates. I found the templates boring.
+11754,2,good work-out,"The video quality isn't the greatest, and you can even see the boom in a few shots, but it's a good workout. I do the first half of the DVD only, as the second half requires little hand weights. Also, I've lifted weights for years and don't think I'd get a workout out of it. I do the 'ballet leg' part of that work out, though, which is somewhat challenging. It was my first intro to Pilates, and after doing the tape for some time, I was able to take an advanced Pilates class without much trouble."
+11755,1,Not worth buying,"I purchased this tape and book package to acquaint myself with Swedish for a trip we are taking. I wanted to listen to it during my work commute. The tape is hard to follow without the book, is not consistent with information in the book and moves ahead much too quickly for a beginner. Don't bother."
+11756,2,Great Movie,Its a great movie about a gay experiencing growing pains. It is a really good film which shows reality and it is a pretty bold move from the norm. There aren't enough movies about gay teens and this would be pretty good one to watch.
+11757,2,WARNING: IT'S A COMIC BOOK,"This is a COMIC book! It would have been nice to know that, since I was expecting something to READ, not a CARTOON picture book for children. If a comic is what you want, get it."
+11758,2,In depth and well written...,"I think this book is for the person who wants an in depth analysis and history of the EU. The book takes into account almost every facet of EU life including markets, science advancement, social metworks, currency/finance, birth rates, etc and offers a reader a thorough history of why the EU countries think and behave as they do. Mr Rifkin takes us back to the 12th and 13th centuries for some of the analysis, which is great, but for the casual reader, can be too much. I found Mr. Rifkin's analysis and writing very well in hand and very informative. I learned much about the EU from reading this book. I would recommend this book for the people that have a strong interest in Europe and want to further understand its people. Good book."
+11759,2,Wonderful candles!,These candles were PERFECT for our daughters wedding. They arrived in excellent condition and were just what we were looking for. The price was much cheaper then if purchased in a store. An excellent item for the price.
+11760,2,Great for some good down time,"I enjoy puzzles that give you a bit of frustration while still being interesting and fun to put together. This puzzle provided both and the picture, when completed, it great."
+11761,2,Excellent! Must read for pregnant women!,"This book is a wealth of information and has recipes, herbal recipes and ideas and advice on making your postpartum the best ever! I read this while pregnant with my third child and I still found a lot of new information. This definitely has a natural parenting approach but is equally beneficial for all ""types"" of parents."
+11762,1,if everyone involved with this movie would just cease living,this was the worst movie i have ever seen (and i have some pretty low standards). the acting was completely over done and the story line was followed so pitifully that i want to shoot myself thinking that i spent two hours working just to waste the money on this piece of [...]! i am now selling it on (the resale market)with a disclaimer that even though the movie packaging is in great condition i don't vouch for the actual movie being remembered as a good purchase for anyone.
+11763,2,Good grief all you naysayers!,"Can't someone just like listening to a voice and instrument, raw with all its flaws, and enjoy it without all these nitpickers tearing it apart? Long and Winding Road, and Let It Be, have always been two of my favorite Beatles songs. I've heard both a thousand times, but never have been moved to tears by them until hearing them on the Naked cd. There is no wall-of-sound to cover up Paul's quivering voice on Long and Winding Road. And now Let It Be seems to be speaking to the listener, not just recorded for an audience. I may not be a music expert, schooled in technique and Beatles history, but a love song sung by Paul without the Specter-hoopla has brought several tears to my eyes lo after all these years. Don't compare it to the original album. Buy and enjoy it as a labor of love by true song-writers, the way they sounded in the studio all by themselves."
+11764,2,A good product,"My dentist recently recommended I use a waterpik. I had one many years ago but decided I needed a new one because the water container of that one was a little cruddy (we have hard water where I live) so I purchased the waterpik ultra because the water container had a lid and it had several different attachments. Overall, I like this product, there are a few drawbacks however. I tend to run out of water and must refill the container and I don't like some of the attachments, like another reviewer the tongue attachment gives me feeling of drowning."
+11765,2,Not bad at all,"While I will respect the poet's desire to remain anonamous, I will bring to light that I had the pleasure of serving with him on board the USS Curtis Wilbur. Most of what you read was written while deployed in the Persian Gulf. If it seems a little too emotional at times, think of your emotions two continents and two oceans away from your friends and family for six months. This book was started in the Gulf on a deployment that was not supposed to take us there. We got the call, we went, and Heartsender wrote. This is real emotion as real as it gets. It was written inbetween ship boardings, and run ins with the Iranian Navy. The poet still serves, and I am proud to still serve with him. If you support the troops, you must support their feelings. This book is Heartsender's feelings. This book is Heartsender"
+11766,2,Beautiful Simplicity,"This book was an amazingly beautiful story about the love and courage a pet owner shares with their pet. I loved the simplicity of the story. It was very engaging. I laughed, I cried, and I found myself wishing I could own a horse. Animals are amazing. It's a story of love for animals, for yourself and others. Loved it."
+11767,1,Lost Potential,"Keep in mind while reading this, I've never seen the original ""The Fog"" by John Carpenter. So I'm reviewing it from that perspective.There was a lot of potential I could see in this movie. However, very little of it was delivered. The characters were very thinly developed and the story was just plain silly and bad. The acting by most of the people was very unconvincing. But what do you expect from a horror flick? In the end it really wasn't scary at all and opportunities they had to make it truly scary they passed over. Maybe this was to prevent it from getting an R rating, which finacially is probably a better move in this day and age.But I will give it thumbs up on the special effects. There was some pretty amazing stuff that I'm sure the original could not even come close to copying.Unless you are a horror or special effect nut, I wouldn't bother with this movie. Otherwise, go at it but don't expect much."
+11768,1,Danco Tub Spout,"If you like leaks and wet walls, buy this product. What engineering genius designed this piece of junk? Water was diverter to the back of the spout and leaked between the back of the tub and the spout. Lots of potential for wall damage. I thought the diverter was designed to send the water up to the shower head. Another lesson in getting what you pay for."
+11769,1,Not worth buying,"I borrowed this from the library. There is not much to it -- just vocabulary words and phrases, and there often isn't enough time to repeat the phrases. There are two Hispanic speakers, and the male often does not pronounce the ""s"" in words (which is common in a few countries). It's rather irritating, since a person not familiar with the words would have to be looking at the booklet in order to know when there's supposed to be an ""s"" in a word."
+11770,1,Left my skin dry,"This is an extraordinarily expensive after shave balm, so my expectations were very high. The product went on very smoothy, with no oily residue and no off putting or overwhelming scent. So, right off the bat, I was impressed. That is where my fondness stopped.I have rather dry skin, especially around the corners of my mouth. I had hoped that this balm would have done better than the Nivea Sensitive Extra Soothing Balm I had used in the past, which was adequate. I was sorely disappointed. The reason for a one star rating, as apposed to perhaps two, is the fact that each tiny bottle costs ~ $40! Outrageous! My advice would be to try a much less expensive product."
+11771,1,Not Recommended,"The video only runs about 20 minutes. It includes videos for only 4 songs. It's just not worth the $16 it takes to have it delivered to your home. Buy ""The Wall - Live from Berlin"" and at least get your money's worth."
+11772,2,My Impetuous Heart,"Accompanied by Hank Jones, George Schearing, Marion McPartland and Bucky Pizzarelli, Marlene is in heavy company here. But none of these giants of Jazz outshines Marlene. She is perfection, shear perfection.THE VERY BEST SINGER IN THE WORLD TODAY!!!!Ella left big shoes to fill, Marlene though only 5 feet tall, gets the job done. Hallelujah!Every cut a treasure. Do yourself a favor, buy this album and I envy you the thrill of hearing it for the first time."
+11773,1,fujifinepix3800,"This camera needs to be recalled as it just stopped working. I liked it originally, but would not buy a Fuji product now. My daughter's Fuji stopped working too. She has a different model.Fujifilm FinePix 3800 3MP Digital Camera w/ 6x Optical Zoom"
+11774,1,Sizing extremely incorrect,"I have purchased this item before from another source and they were exceptional slippers. The sizing from the other source was perfect. This pair, although of the same quality, is so much larger than the other pair (exact same size) that they had to be returned, at my cost, which I believe is very unfair. Apparently, this slipper runs very inconsistent in sizing, so you are better off purchasing the slipper from a source that has free shipping both ways."
+11775,2,awesome,"I am a big Billy Squier fan and I had this on LP for years and just recently got the CD. Of course it's great, it's Billy."
+11776,1,Aliens fans: you might want to skip this one!,"After reading practically all other Aliens novels and comics, I find this one too drawn out, too much unnecessary plot and not enough involvement of the aliens themselves. The book delves too far into the woman thief's past and the feelings of the main character, Stanislaw. I was too bored three quarters into the book and couldn't even bear to finish it."
+11777,1,Incredibly Crude Propaganda,"and only half a book at that!For years now every Clancy book has been a sales job, and this book seems to be selling:hatred of Arabs;good feelings about universal wiretapping; andgood feelings about systematic assassinations.Clancy also solemnly reassures us:that the CIA has never ever had any capability for assassination (though he admits that it has a covert ops section);that the FBI has never done anything illegal (htough he admits that it has a huge collection of blackmail files); and, best of all,that John Kennedy was killed by Lee Harvey Oswald, acting all by himself.His storytelling skills are pleasant, but maybe a graphic novel would be a better way to reach an audience with the credulity he seems to long for?And this is only half a book - the plot just stops in midair - pretty shoddy."
+11778,2,Excellent Reference for BIND version 4,"This Book is a must have for anyone seriously doing DNS work today. The upcoming 3rd edition will cover BIND Version 8, but the substance of DNS and how it works on the Internet is fully and delightfully covered in both previous editions.The Authors are completely knowledgeable about DNS and share that knowledge in a straighforward comfortable style that makes DNS & BIND a fun read while imparting loads of DNS wisdom."
+11779,2,Amazing pocket scale,"Everything is alright, but the scale power button didn't work correctly out of the box. Contacted the numbers on the papers and it turned into a big cluster[] to fix. The manufacturers were not helpful in the slightest. So I just left it. If I hold the scale upside down and hit the button in a certain way, it works though. Manufacturer problem, not a seller problem. I am still pleased with the scale.Once it is on, it works awesome. Amazingly accurate. A good way to test the accuracy of yours is to use coins. Great scale when I can get it to turn on--I just use the auto off feature and let it go off. I never thought i'd be the one saying this; but you get what you pay for."
+11780,2,That song,"I already typed this once.......hmm.....But anyways, that song that plays when Al leaves the movie set and goes through her window is ""Black Balloons"" by the Goo Goo Dolls. The one she lipsings is ""I'm so in love with you"" by al green. :-)"
+11781,1,Poor E-Book Photo Illustrations,"In a book like this the photos are as important as the text. The photos in the E-book edition are dark, muddy copies with artifacts from a printed edition..."
+11782,2,Great beginning to the new series,"My son recently wrote the following mini-review:Remnants is the new series Animorphs' creator K.A. Applegate is working on. The year is 2011. A 76-mile-long asteroid is about to hit high-tech Earth. A ""chip"" of the asteroid strikes San Francisco, killing people by the thousands and shocking the many who were unaware that the world -- the population of people, plants, animals, insects, everything -- was doomed to devastation. Only eighty people can fit in the Mayflower, a ship built to escape Earth and put the passengers in hibernation. The Mayflower launches with zero days until impact of the asteroid, so beginning the long journey to find another place to colonize."
+11783,2,fun story quick read,"fun quick paced story easy to read. like millennium man and stepford wives in a fantasy of the future consuming the past. fun characters, I only which it had been told as a longer story so I could get lost in the book."
+11784,2,The whole series is spellbinding.,"I loved these books, I became so involved with the characters that when I came to the last page I almost cried. I have to get the rest of the books. I can hardly wait to start reading Zion Chronicles. Brock and Brodie captured me, they made me become more aware of the horrible reality of WW11. I will never forget."
+11785,1,"Coleman 28-Quart Cooler With Bail Handle, Blue",The lids keep falling off due to faulty hinges. This model used to have much sturdier construction.I would not purchase this type again.
+11786,1,wouldn't dare to call my own,"First off, I don't understand why Marian would have to ugly down. Her ""Amanda ALWAYS WINS"" attitude made me want to scream. All she had to do was let her personality outshine Amanda's and stand up for herself. Then she'd never want for a friend or suitor. The man was pretty thick and not the least bit attractive. Basically you got a whole lot of boring people feeling sorry for themselves, then you get a lot of this boring stuff repeating itself, and then something somewhat exciting tries to happen but it only makes it feel random and downright unnecessary. The hero and the heroine (if you want to call them that) went from hating each other to making out, to bickering to rolling around in a barn, to ignoring each other to sucking each other's faces, to fighting to getting engaged. It became too much to keep up with. Is this the same Johanna Lindsey who wrote about that loving scoundrel, Jeremy Malory?!?"
+11787,1,Reliable product,Product is of high quality construction. I have other products in this line. They have held up for over 8 years and still look like new. This new towl bar fits right in.
+11788,1,Database programming with Visual Basic 6,"This book promises much, but delivers little. Both the book and the examples from the CD are so full of errors that it is more of an example in frustration than learning. It is nothing more than a usless piece of garbage"
+11789,1,due to packaging this product arrived folded,perhaps you could put your books into better packaging or at least put a piece of stiff cardboard in the package to prevent the book from moving in the packaging and folding--I realize it is an extra expense but it would at least assure that the books would arrive in better condition.
+11790,1,"Absolute Second Rate Junk sold as ""Premium"" quality","The base screw of this lamp broke less than 2 months after receiving it. I have probably adjusted it 4-5 times in that interval. Poor quality parts likely from dubious sources. Stay away from this product. Otherwise, all I can say it looks very nice, while it stands."
+11791,2,Pretty good,"I didn't like the taste at first when I was doing 1 scoop per cup of milk, but I found that more is better. I like the mixture 2 scoops per 1.25 cups of milk, blended. Any more and it stops dissolving completely."
+11792,1,Buggy but Fun,"I love the level design, the action, the graphics. It's just fun mindless killing. That would be great and all, but the game's save/load feature is riddled with bugs. I made it a point to install the latest patch (1.3) before playing because I figured the bugs it shipped with would be patched, but it still will only manage to load a save file 50% of the time. No, that doesn't mean I just have to retry twice for every save, it means on any given particular save, there will only be a 50% chance it's a good save, if it's broke it's broke, and will never load without crashing to desktop.The plus-side is you don't really have to save. Beating a level only takes about 30 minutes, and the next time you start the game you can go on to the next level. It's saving in the middle of a game that's the problem.Overall this is a nice change of pace from recent action games, and definitely worth a look. I can't edit my initial rating, but I think it's worth 3 stars, 4 if they fix the save bug."
+11793,2,California Dreamin,"I savor the thought of exclusivity as much as the next guy, yet I can't imagine why is it that these guys fly so far below the radar. They've got a polished low-fi twee charm without an excess of cute. Leads and backgrounds weave through jangly beats like a Summer drive along the coast all lost in the moment and carefree. Best in the genre since the Softies."
+11794,2,Fun and Exciting book that will help you so much.,"I'm fourteen, two years into being a teenager and the 7 habbits of highly effective teens has so much information and advice that will make you a much happier person. It's up to beat with comics and great little qoutes. It's diffently helped me become a happier and better person."
+11795,2,To the guy who hates the jazzy DMB,"I haven't listened to Busted Stuff as of yet, I heard the only single released Where are you goin' just now on the radio, and I thought it was excellent. Perhaps the Albums is just as good, I to was dissappointed with Everyday, it was loud and obnoctious. In any event for those who say EveryDay is full of the jazzy stuff from DMB that isn't liked, I must disagree, the best jazz played by DMB had to be the crash album, and to the guy who liked ""crash"" how can you say you don't like jazzy DMB, that album was epitomy of melodious jazz funk, swooning tempo, and sweet brooding sound and lyrics. So, I don't know what you are talking about? If Busted Stuff sounds anything like that then I think DMB has turned it around."
+11796,1,"A very disappointing read, kind of boring","This book is a real letdown. As other reviewers noted, he wasn't running a typical hedge fund strategy. He just bought and held tech companies, either public or private. And he did this during the .com boom. He had the sense to wind down the fund before the crash. Gosh, he made a lot of money. As I think he himself says, never mistake talent for a Bull market.You don't find out much of anything about his approach, because I don't think there was much too it.The chapters jump around without much coherence. He seems to be building up to a point, leading to a big 11 page section that entirely in italics, in case you were going to miss it. We have higher margins than the developing world, so the trade deficit doesn't matter. That's it.One of the least interesting books I've read this year."
+11797,2,"I have 3, two large and one smaller","I have three of these balls, I also have 3 dogs. A DDR German Shepherd at 96lbs, a 60lb Husky mix and a 45lb Collie mix. The two smaller dogs love these toys. The shepherd (Blitz) saw me lightly toss the ball and treats fall out so Blitz will pick up the toy and throw it against the wall. HOme and toy still survives even today. Great way to keep dogs happy on a rainy day or before they go to bed. These can survive in my house I know they are built to last."
+11798,2,ExOfficio briefs,"Very comfortable. The fit is snug, which is ok with me. I prefer the loose fitting briefs (which I also bought).Bought these more for outdoor activities. No chaffing or bunching up.Dont think Ill be wearing much cotton undies anymore. The packaging says you can wear these for a while and just wash 'em in the sink. Though I havnt tried wearing them more than a day I did wash them out and they do dry fairly quick.Though a bit more expensive, Its well worth it."
+11799,2,The Trial,"All of Robert Whitlow's books are good, I think. He writes a really good story, sometimes with a lot of God and Christianity mixed in. This book is no different. It keeps you on the edge of your seat. By the time you get 3/4th of the way through, you can't put the book down. I highly recommend this book,unless you have an objection to Christianity."
+11800,1,ok,I was looking for a kids book that explains the Christmas story. It does but I think the word choice is too complex and too old world for my 4 year old. I end up changing some of the sentences as I read so that he understands.
+11801,1,O-Ringer!!,The company looked to save a few pennies on the screw cap o-ring and screwed themselves. The original tumblers had a double-layered o-ring that also fit perfectly about the inner circumference of the lid. The new tumblers have a single leyered o-ring that is also smaller in diameter than the lid circumference. The result is a gasket that folds up on one side as you screw the lid on and allows any liquid to leak from the side of the lid. I was able to recover the original tumbers I tossed away and removed those o-rings. They are now on the new tumblers but I have no plans to purchase this product in the future. Repeated emails to the company's customer service department were ignored. You've been warned!
+11802,1,High hopes dashed,"I read lots of reviews for this and other similar vac products. I eagerly awaited my product as I have a bathroom tile floor that gets dusty and a wood kitchen floor that's always full of crumbs. After charging over 24 hours, the first use was fair. My second use (yes, after cleaning the filters completely and charging another day) was marginal to poor.So, needless to say, I am incredibly disappointed. I was not expecting this product to be anywhere near the performance of my traditional upright, but the fact that it cannot even suck up a little dust leaves me frustrated and annoyed.So if you are comparing this vac to other similar ones...don't waste your time. Seriously. Don't say you weren't warned..."
+11803,2,This book is very helpful for information I need,"I wasn't sure about this book when I bought it, but I use it almost as much a my med. dictionary."
+11804,2,Good hard drive,Bought this 500 gb ext hard drive. I read lots of review about it. Came out of the box working well. I leave it on for the surv. video at my business. It hasn't shut down unexpectedly yet. A+
+11805,1,Not His Name is Alive,"Don't buy this thinking it's HNIA, because it isn't. It's a bunch of mostly lame oldies. Why Amazon has this listed under HNIA is obviously a technical glitch."
+11806,2,Wee Sing King Cole's Party,"This is my son's favorite video. It may be annoying to most adults, but in a child's eye, it seems to be quite magical. It's entertaining and to hear your child sing the songs is priceless!!!"
+11807,1,disturbing negative stereotypes of asians,"I've enjoyed a couple of the Dirk Pitt novels. Not exactly high literature, but fun in an 'over-the-top' sort of way. This one I put down after I was turned off by the anti-asian tone. It was difficult to know if he was talking about the Chinese bad guy or Chinese in general. His comment slamming Chinese music was the final straw. Unnecessary and stupid."
+11808,2,Excellent!!!,Hard to put down once you start reading! You can relate to each and every emotion! Must Read!
+11809,2,Great zoom lens,I really wanted an IS lens but they were all really expensive. I settled for this on because the price was right and it was a Canon product. I was not disappointed with my selection at all. For an amature photographer this lens will do everything I need it to for now. I may get a wide angle lens. But I think this one will work.
+11810,1,RoadMate Dash Mount,I think some velcro would do better than this item. If you have a small dash on your car it won't work. It takes up a lot of space.
+11811,2,Product is Significantly Overpriced,Google it to find a less expensive version. I just purchased a copy for $12.95.
+11812,1,3 out of 4 units broke down less than 4 months of usage,If you're lucky and talked to one of the honest support person. They know there are problems with their camera. I love it initially. But product is not reliable.
+11813,1,It is not 3X magnifying glass - the true magnification is 2X.,"As the title says it, it is not a 3X magnifying glass - the true magnification is 2X. As soon as I received the glass and tried to look through it, I got suspicious, since it did not magnify things that much. Looking all over the package for information about the magnification I could not find any. The package barely has anything written on it at all. Then I measured the magnification myself and confirmed that it is actually 2X. If you plan to give the glass as a toy to your kids, it might be a good thing - you do not want your kid to look through the glass at the sun and damage (or even lose) their vision (the energy density in the sun's image will go as magnification squared). But if you want to look at tiny details of something, the glass is not a good choice.That said, I returned the glass as not matching the description.Oh, yes, the frame and the handle of the glass are made of plastic. The handle screws onto the frame. Looks flimsy."
+11814,1,Destination Vegas,The title is very deceiving. The story was not put together very well. Seemed like a cut and paste project.
+11815,1,Not as great as I thought it would be,"I bought the ""Treasury of Magical Knitting"" and this book. One would have been enough."
+11816,2,Minister looking for Stories for Christmas Eve Service,"This was perfect for my needs. It had accounts of all the tradition carols that my congregation sings on Christmas eve. Those in search of the history of non religious songs and spirituals should look at Christmas Songs in America, another excellent collection of stories."
+11817,2,"The magic, the laughter, the wit...it's all here","Please believe me when I describe the listening experience of this album to you: PURE BLISS. It makes me so happy as it shows obvious wit, intelligence, and humor. Musically, they rock, but it's not just the music...it also has a lot of their personalities shining through. They are so endearing. The lyrics are all wonderful. This is one of my favorite albums."
+11818,2,The Year of the Cat,"I loved reading these poems over and over. As I read, I think of my own cats, the ones that share their lives with me now and the ones who touched my life over the the years. If you have shared your life with a cat, this book of poems is a must have!Great book!Marilyn Glover"
+11819,2,"Fun, but with a couple of issues","This game is a definitely a lot of fun and a good way to sink some time, but I do have a couple of minor complaints: 1) I'm not a big fan of how you can't save a game while in the middle of dungeon crawling; if you get killed by the boss, you have to go all the way through the dungeon to get back to that encounter. . . and 2) way too many ""random"" encounters in the dungeons. I enjoy a fight as much as the next RPG-er, but not so much that I like finishing one fight, taking two steps, and having another one. . .over and over and over.Other than those issues, I do really like the game."
+11820,1,May turn on some lights but leave you in the cold,"This is a disturbing book. While I found much of it enlightening with points well-argued, it portrays a cold-hearted Christianity; an army of defenders and apologetics who have little of the ""impractical"" compassion that we need if we are to bring the spirit of Christ into our world. I prefer the kinder, gentler treatment of this subject by authors like Richard Foster, Philip Yancey, Dallas Willard, who I think better understand the integration of reason and compassion in a life of faith."
+11821,2,works exactly as advertised.,i used to use a similar crystal a bunch of years ago but forgot about it. this is as good as that was and i absolutely recommend it to anybody seeking to rid their lives of as many toxic chemicals as possible. its healthier and feels cleaner than that commercial gunk left from most under arm deodorants
+11822,1,Worse Ever,"This series should have ended with DUANE'S DEPRESSED. I have read several of McMurtrys books and it's hard to believe this is the same man who won the Pulitzer for LONESOME DOVE. The gross amount of profanity and the sex scenes did not add anything to the book. In fact, this book did not really add anything to the story line. It should have just ended with Duane flying off to Egypt in DUANE'S DEPRESSED."
+11823,2,The rare book that made me cry,"I loved this book. The main character is so well drawn, such a unique but real individual, she comes alive on every page. I cared so much about her-- especially because I'm a middle child too-- that the last touching scene with her mother made me bawl. And I hardly ever cry when I'm reading.Also, it was a page turner. I stayed up much too late finishing it. It's so rare to find a book with great characterizations (and not just the protagonist, but her family, friends, and teachers too) and also a gripping plot, I reccommend it to children, teens, and even middle aged people like me."
+11824,2,"Melancholic CD, nice for Saturday Afternoon Tea Time",The most surprising song in the CD is the last track where Charlie Haden sang beautifully. And you can't complain listening to Billie Henderson and Sherley Horn.
+11825,2,"Simply, a great product!","Solid as a tank and resistant to any kind of heat, these things are great.For re-heating anything from spareribs to chili to chicken and rice,making relatively small amounts of soup/chili/stew (serving 1 or 2);Use in oven or micro-wave, easy washing, and easy nesting/storage for multiple dishes (invert lid).This casserole dish may represent old technology (Pyrex), but it sure is still viable today.I prefer it to the opaque white ones so popular these days.More durable to, IMO.The dishes are strong and generally hold up under anything exceptvery hard drops onto hard surfaces or equally hard collisions.You've really got to work hard to break these things.Pyrex just works for me.I am going to look for other sizes of this item.I would like to think that a whole line of these would be available,from 2-quart up to deep, 10 or even 12-quart sizes, of these super-useful dishes.At least, that's the way it should be."
+11826,1,Breaks Easily,"Broke on the 1st day, uncontrollable -- kept banging into things -- and only adults were flying it! Parts broke off easily. Not worth it."
+11827,1,Not impressed,"First I will say that yes, this item does keep my laptop cool. But I've had it for 6 months now and I just don't think it's that great of a product. Here are my gripes:* It is cheaply made. I have little confidence that it is going to last very long.* It is generally noisy, and every once in a while it makes a terrible groaning sound (probably the belt or something).* It is unsafe to adjust the legs while the fan is on. There have been several occasions where my fingers found their way into the fan.* The USB cord doesn't have a pass-through connector, so it uses up a port.That said, I think there are better products out there. My roommate uses the fan by Antec and it seems to be a better deal."
+11828,1,Another Danny Ainge Moment!,"I was really disappointed in this shallow,collection of crumbs from Phelps. It is much less interesting and honest than Echoes on the Hardwood by Mike Coffey. This would have been a good opportunity to hear Phelps explain why he couldn't win it all with some really great rosters. Instead we get a boring recital of Digger's finer moments, and total glossing over of his obvious shortcomings as a coach. This is more a book about how much Digger likes Digger than it is about basketball, the game, and character building. Save your money...buy Coffey's book, not this one"
+11829,1,I Just Don't Get The Modern RUSH,"Concerning RUSH's last three studio recordings, Test For Echo, Vapor Trails and Snakes & Arrows ..... I just don't get it. It all sounds like a bunch of noise to me. Counterparts is the last recording I really liked by them overall ..... I guess that makes me a classic RUSH fan only at this point in time. The only reason I gave this recording two stars was out of the respect for the great musicians they are and the outstanding live shows they still perform today."
+11830,1,SUCKS!,It sucks so bad it doent go far and it broke fast. and when a reveiew is really really long like 3 paragrapgs (like the 1 with gun) It means the company wrote it to make people buy it.
+11831,1,skip it,"Set it up along with smc router. No connection from 15 feet away, one floor down. Got a connection with the netgear fm114p , though link quality was poor and barely adaquate speeds.Check for pci cards with external antenna that can be positioned away from the body of the pc or pci cards with removable antenna, so that it can be upgraded with a higher gain antenna."
+11832,2,Excellent Nutritious Shake,"I have been taking the shake as substitute for breakfast once in a while. However, with my new early schedule job, I had the shake consecutively for one month everyday, and I notice my energy level increase, my skin, and nails. The shake is wonderful I don't use milk only water 8 ouonces, 1 cup of blueberries, 2 tbs of flax seed and borage (Barleans) oil, and two scoop of Chia. Very satisfying and delicious!!"
+11833,2,Timeless Corporate Humor,"I watched and bought it 10 years, or so, ago. It's a keeper, but, I lost my copy. Now it is rare, but I found it again! Buy it if you can...I just did. The words below from another reviewer ring so TRUE!""This movie has so many funny lines and situations. If more people were aware of it, it would surely become a cult classic. So check it out and pass the word."""
+11834,2,A Beautiful Simple Introduction,"The beautifully illustrated small booklette in French is a collection a few dozen wise sayings from Norse epics. Each saying is present on one page with an opposing full color page of an appropriately themed ancient stone & wood etchings or monkish manuscript. What is so delightful, is that the difficult-to-appreciate stone etchings have been carefully chalked and colored so that it is powerfully moving.This is more of an eye-opening ""sampler"", rather than an in-depth look at the topic of ancient Scandavian thought. Hopefully, it will encourage further study."
+11835,2,What RPGs were always meant to be!,"Near perfection. It's actually hard to say how good Skies of Arcadia is, but here's my advice: if you like RPGs and have a Dreamcast, then you MUST buy this game!!! (and Shenmue too)"
+11836,2,Finally re-released,"Beautiful, ambient, rythmic and spacey. Along the lines of Tangerine Dream, but less intense. Fell in love with this album 20 years ago and have been looking to replace my LP with a CD but it's been out of print. FINALLY we get a re-release and it's only $9!! (makes me wish Edgar Froese would re-release his original Epsilon in Malaysian Pale, rather than having to consider rare out-of-print copies for $100+ ). Thank you, Reed."
+11837,2,No more late days to work,I'm a very deep sleeper. But this alarm clock never fails to wake me up. The dual mode for alarm is very useful and the controls are integrated into the small package in a very unique and creative way. I'm a big fan. Highly recommend this product.
+11838,1,THIS IS NOT PUNK! I REPEAT NOT PUNK!!!,"good charlotte and simple plan r even more punk rock than this s**tty band that r not punk!their mohawks r horrible! story of the year & the used have better ones! rufio,homegrown,allister,mxpx,blink 182,and green day r real punk, not this s**tty s**t!!! this crap is not punk! punk is dead! if you like punk, u suck just like the bands and their musick! go to the new age of punk rock, or got to..HELL!!!"
+11839,2,Where is the CD????,"I had this album when it came out and I think it is one her best. I originally bought it for ""The Morning After"" and ""We May Never Love Like This Again"" her own Oscar winning performances, but found that her renditions of the other Oscar winners were just as great, making the album brilliant. I was only sad that ""Nice To Be Around"" from the film ""Cinderella Liberty"" wasn't included, but then it didn't win the Oscar that year, which was a shame as it is another brilliant and flawless performance by Ms. McGovern. Now my biggest frustration is that this album hasn't seen a CD release, which is rediculous when so much crap is out there. Hopefully one day."
+11840,1,Do not expect a working unit,"Hideous quality control for a very high price. Missing parts, poor packaging. Maybe it works great, but I will never find out."
+11841,1,Frothy,"Spin-offs of TV series are rarely as good as the original, and ""Private Practice"" is a perfect example. Some reviewers have cautioned us not to try to compare this to ""Grey's Anatomy,"" but that is impossible--for me, at least. ""Grey's Anatomy"" was about the journey of five young interns on their way to becoming surgeons. The first two or three seasons were fascinating, but then it faded, and out of that fade was born ""Private Practice.""Set in Los Angeles it is about doctors who treat people with holistic medicine, acupuncture, psychiatry, doctors who do not dress like doctors, doctors who drink white wine and look as if they just dropped in the office from the beach. The story lines are most often about people problems, rather than medical problems.And as such, I just didn't find it worth watching when there are so many other better things."
+11842,2,Aisling Grey - Guardian extraordinary,Katie MacAlister did a fabulous job on this book. Most paranormal romances lately written have been more paranormal less romance. This was a very romantic book with a sweet love story between Aisling and Drake. I was so happy to see Drake finally coming around.....Can't wait for the next one...GREAT WORK.
+11843,1,It's Sheryl with an S,"Funny how many of these diehard Crow fans can't even spell her name correctly.Radio-friendly, middle of the road roots rock for those who think that Shelby Lynne is too adventurous."
+11844,1,don't waste your time,"worst book I have ever read. I realized it was bad from the start but continued reading hoping for development - did not happen. Waste of 10 dollars and worst of all, waste of time. Try The time travelers wife and The glass castle instead."
+11845,2,Miles rising,"This is more than just a history of the conception and recording of ""Kind of Blue."" It's also a primer on the rise of Miles Davis as one of the premiere talents in American music. Much of the book is comprised of Miles' journey leading up to ""Kind of Blue,"" including his work with Charlie Parker, his battle with heroin addiction, and his later collaborations with Gil Evans. A must-read for any Miles fan, as well as listeners who are just discovering jazz. Informative and exceedingly well-written. I couldn't put it down, and ended up reading the whole thing in two nights."
+11846,1,A piece of Junk,"I bought this thing from an office supply superstore; I will not stoop to calling it a router. It is more like the ideal paperweight for masochists.The first few days I was able to use it, with minimal or no encryption, in a hotel room with wired internet access. After that, it functioned off and on, for another couple of weeks and then it unceremoniously died. Forget about configuring it, you will find that trying to do this is an exercise in futility.Fortunately, the office supply chain took it back and gave me store credit, so I am rid of this thing.Don't waste your time on this product; there has to be something better out there that will fulfill your needs."
+11847,1,"Bach:Organ Spectacular (DVD Audio), Ton Koopman","Ton Koopman has undeniable skills at the keyboard. However, as a European virtuoso he surely should know that one must take the acoustic of the environment into consideration. He plays everything on the disk at a pace too rapid for the reverberant room. The recording is OK, but not any better than a standard CD. In fact, if you want great Bach, on a terrific organ, and wonderfully remastered on CD, get ""Great Organ Favorites"", E. Power Biggs on the Harvard Folentropp organ, recorded about 1960!Unless you need to have multiple Bach recordings, skip this one."
+11848,1,Received returned item,I haven't used the cleaner yet but did assemble it. It was obviously a returned item because the cord wasn't wrapped. The hole where you attach the tool caddy was drilled in the wrong spot so the caddy doesn't fit quite right. I'm sure that's why the previous buyer returned it. I didn't want to go through all the hassle of returning it but will if it doesn't work properly when I use it for the first time.
+11849,2,The Absolute Best Clippers!,"We purchased the infant Seki edge clippers and liked them SO much that we just bought the Seki Edge Stainless Steel clippers for me and my husband! These are the best! The nail clippers are actually sharp, thus not snagging your nail and breaking off the ends like the cheap grocery store brands. Trust me, you will never own another brand after you try Seki! The price is totally worth it since they last forever."
+11850,2,Little labels--Big dreams,This little book tells some big stories about a time before the major corporations destroyed the music. It is the history of heros and tyrants of some of the most important independent record companies ever. Without them recorded music would have never been the same. Some of the stories are a little dry but others are brillant. A good read for anyone interested in the history of records and modern music
+11851,2,RULES!,This book is great of the best I have readed. I want to share of these pages with the peoples of the world so that everyone will no the secrets to making the ganja in their rooms and smoke it all of the day and the night. I like it much!
+11852,1,HUGE Disappointment !,"This was a horrible follow up to ""Make Yourself"". Its sounds like it was thrown together to capitolize on their new found radio play. I am in the music business and listen to hundreds of CD's. This was one of the worst records of 2001."
+11853,2,"A major talent, a great album","The real test of a blues performer doesn't come with the shuffles and fast numbers...anyone with minimal talent can huff and puff and stomp their way through those songs with varying degrees of success.The real deal...the singer who has the goods...can tackle the slow, intense, extended numbers like ""Married To The Blues"" and hold the listener's attention while maintaining the necessary tension and drama over the span of the song. Shemekia does this brilliantly...all of her performances shine...and she has more going for her in the embryonic stages of her career than most singers do when they're looking back on a lifetime."
+11854,2,Great CD - 2 standouts,"I like this CD, only 2 standout as GREAT and one other as almost great.Elliott Yamin - ""Moody's Mood for Love"" Simon said it best with ""Vocal masterclass"". This is by far the best track on the CD. His voice is beautiful and this is a technically difficult song to sing, and he did it brilliantly.Paris Bennett ""Midnight Train to Georgia"" She did this wonderfully. What a joy to listen too, gorgeous voice. Way to go Paris.Mandisa - Awesome track, better than ""karaoke"" standards that the rest sound like. Great job Mandisa."
+11855,1,"Yow! Lots of people wrote stuff, huh?","This book stunk. I believe that reality can have deeper meanings, but don't get to deep or you'll drown. The only time you can go that deep and not drown, is with drugs. I never thought Lord of the Flies would attract so many druggies."
+11856,2,"Thought-provoking, entertaining, and well worth the money.","It's been over a year since I read this book, but when I did, I couldn't put it down, and that's not a cheap cliche. I usually read books in a week, I think it was 3 or 4 days with The Truth Machine. Every last character was true to life and the situations hardly contrived. It says FICTION on the side of the book, it seems more like FACT or PROJECTED FACT. It's that real."
+11857,2,"Love this thing, take it easy at first spin-up and ....","After several plastic ones, you won't believe how great this one is! Yes, like any good mechanism, you just can't jam it when full of heavy greens. Start slowly and appreciate the wonderful upgrade in salad spinners.Really like the stainless bowl with its non-slip gripping bottom. Can be used for other purposes than just a salad spinner. It is attractive enough to serve with (OK, under certain situations) other serving plates.Worth the difference in the price between plastic and metal. And come on, don't we all have enough plastic in our lives!You won't be disappointed, (just start the spinning slowly!)"
+11858,1,Wow talk about leftwing Moon Bats!,"Wow, what can one say about someone living in a fantasy world completely devoid of any reality! Never once does he mention the murderous bent of Daniel Ortega and the plight of the native Miskito Indians living in Nicaragua. How about them 12,000 soviet troops stationed in Managua? How about the revolution being exported to El Salvador, Honduras, Costa Rica, Guatemala... Sorry there was no Coke only left wing moon bats who didn't like the US engaging the enemy and wining ....."
+11859,1,Garbage,"I'm not sure if ours was defective or if they're all this horrible. When you turn it off you can still hear buzzing from the speakers and your batteries are being drained. Took us about 12 dollars in batteries until we realized that. Bass sounds fuzzy even when running off of the AC adapter. We've had a few hours of decent listening time, but otherwise it has been nothing but an annoyance."
+11860,2,Good little unit,"Overall not a bad unit. I used it to set my guitar effects pedal output volume level, so that the volume level would be the same for each selection. The only slight downside is the unit automatically shuts itself off to conserve the batteries, which got irritating while I was working. If I want it off, I'll turn it off and if I forget, shame on me!"
+11861,1,Not what was advertised,What I recieved was not what was shown in the picture. These bows are absolutely tiny and will get lost in my 10 pound Pomeranian's hair. They are also plain colors and are not designed like shown in the picture. Absolutely not worth the $26 I paid for them. Will be returning!!
+11862,1,"Limited number of fm frequencies, compared to other variants of same product","This was my third fm modulator from VR3. The other two work fine. This one is a big disappointment. It has a more limited number of fm frequencies available and none of those coincides with a ""clear"" on in my geographic area. So essentially unusable."
+11863,2,Tiger Spice Chai,"It's rich and creamy, sweet but not overly or sickly sweet. I've tried it hot and cold, both ways were delicious. It's like drinking dessert and tastes like a gingerbread cookie. If you enjoy sweet chai tea you should certainly try it!"
+11864,2,a desert island cd,"This recording is the ultimate in Metheny-Burton collaborations. Burton is an incredibly good musician...totally underrated, and Metheny may be less underrated but one of the greatest jazz musicians ever. And kudos to Will Lee and Mitch Foreman. I love this recording....it's one of my desert island cds."
+11865,1,Won't do it...,"As much as I want to see LOTR on bluray, I just won't buy the theatrical edition! In my opinion, and as many of these reviews have said, this is just a ploy to make more money! I will wait for the extended editions."
+11866,1,Not much effect,I took three bottles worth and saw a small but insignificant effect. I don't plan to buy any more at this time.
+11867,2,A GOOD MOVIE REVIEW,THIS MOVIE WAS FILMED VERY NICELY AND THE DIRECTING WAS WELL PLAYED. GLEN CLOSE WAS A GOOD REPRSENTATIVE OF THE SUBJECT LINE OF THIS FILM. THE MOVIE WAS ENJOYABLE.
+11868,2,a classic cd with classic techno tunes,this is a cd full of music at a time when there was not as much seperation and labelling on styles of music ... it was before jungle and happy hardcore were born and therefore has some classic raw choons.
+11869,1,BIGGEST CRAP EVER!,Well people.. what I ordered isn't what I got. Instead of getting the nice blue ones you see in the pic I got some crappy ass other ones that are no brighter that the stock ones I had already had. I've seen mag lights that are brighter.
+11870,1,One way to start a fire,"The best thing to do with this book is use it for kindling. I found this book in a give away pile at my college and saw that it received good reviews. Then, after trudging through it, I realized that I should have left it there. It starts off interesing, but fell drastically short of the expectations I had."
+11871,2,Excellent movie,"I never knew an animated movie could elicit such human emotion. It can be appreciated by viewers of any age. Even if you haven't seen the previous two movies, you'll still find much to relate to in this movie."
+11872,2,"A must for brit girl sound lovers.,","This is one of my very last nice surprises from the brit girl sound -which I am very much into, even though it is not a passion you can share with everybody in my country.Powerful, sexy an warm, if you like the freshness and innocence of Sandie Shaw or Tammy St. John and, at the same time, can't stop loving the roughness and intensity of Lulu, Jackie Lee or Barbara Ruskin, you will definitly love Sam Jones, who has got the best of them all.Between this one and ""Sam leads the way"" (which I already bought), I certainly choose the first one, that comprehends her previous and -in my opinion- best period.So, all I can say is : BUY IT!!! You won't regret, believe me."
+11873,2,well worth the price,I bought this dvd at wm for a little over $10. You may not know some of the cartoons. But that don't matter to my 2 yr old grandson. To me it is well worth the $10 I payed for it
+11874,2,Best Buy,"An easy to read classically simple face, including second hand. Can't beat Amazon's price. Casio's batteries tend to last several years. Only drawback is not very waterproof. Watchband can easily be cut shorter if too long for you."
+11875,2,A decent novelization of the game,"This is another walkthrough for The Beast Within, the second video game installment for Gabriel Knight. This time, Gabriel heads to Germany to perform his duties as the last Schattenjager. He gets wrapped up in a murder/mystery involving werewolves. There are a couple of descrepancies about the book. In the game, Grace, Gabriel's assistant for the book shop, tells a customer their total is $24. In the book, Grace says it's $124.21. A pretty big difference I noticed. I think there are a few more, but I can't recall. Again, I would not recommend reading the book before playing the game. I do not believe there is a third book for Blood of the Scared, Blood of the Damned, the final installment for the series. I think there's a small graphic novel included with the third game, sort of comic book style, but no real book. I wish there was a fourth game and book, but we can't all have what we want. (sad sigh)"
+11876,1,"Well....50 cent is great, but movie isnt","Dont recommend this movie. I am 14...not enjoyin it my 19 yr old brother didnt like it either. 8 mile was definitly better... they also should have made it pg-13..and cut some of the ""crap"" out of it. The part i liked was the music. Personally, if you like 50 cent, i recommend stickin' to the music, not the acting. It ruins his rep. Besides, who wants great 50 cent to start rolling down the hill?"
+11877,2,Works as described - What more can you ask for!,"* Works exactly as described.* A lot more functionality for about the same price as a ""cheepee.""* Looks much ""cooler"" than our old cheap plastic one."
+11878,1,Great Lakes Wildlife,"This is not a BOOK but a fold over, laminated pamplet. Contains a page on invertebrates pictures, 2 pages on fishes, 1 page on reptiles and amphibians, 3 on birds and 3 on mammals. The scientific name and the size of the animal is all the information that is listed. I was expecting some descripton that would help distinguish an organism from other similar ones. I was surprised that neither the carp nor the alewife was included."
+11879,1,SecuROM is a dealbreaker,"I have waited for the release of this game for years, only to discover that Electronic Arts has saddled it with SecuROM and a 3-installation limit. It is a shame that EA could not give this game and its customers a proper treatment."
+11880,2,Aaaaasss yooooou wiiiiiiiish!,This movie is great! You will not hate! It will bring you no haaarm. It is full of chaaarm. This review must be 20 woooords. That is for the biiirds!
+11881,2,the definitive guide to single malts,"I actually purchased this book in a sweater shop in Fort William. It was the one book that the distillery blenders and everday whisky fans continuously recommended. I started to take notes in the margins each time I tried a new single malt. The descriptions are brief, but the coverage is rather comprehensive. The rankings for sweetness and peatiness, though I often disgaree with them, are helpful in selecting new things to try--if I like one that is a 7/3, I can look for other 7/3 rankings in the book. I always take this along with me when I head to the whisky shop. Highly recommended for anyone who is serious about single malt scotch."
+11882,1,"Not worth it, better to pay more for a better product, the seal cap broke in less than 6 oaths of use :(","I don't recommend this item, I try Rowena expert DG8030 before, was the most amazing product I have ever try, but unfortunately is discontinue. Now Highly recommend Rowena DG8430, amazing results with distilled water, and able to clean with accessories on the inside to avoid yellow stains :)"
+11883,1,DVD would not play through,"I really liked this movie. I've been looking for it for a while. I Recieved the movie in the mail yesterday, I watched 1/2 of it before it started skipping. I've seen it a thousand times, but I would have liked to have what I paid for."
+11884,1,Low quality control!,"stones seem to be fine but 600 grit stone is not straight, it has concavity! that's why, I can not finish sharpening my knives, if I use defected stone, knife gets another angle and i have to start sharpening from the beginning..Because of 1 stone, the whole system becomes useless.. I'm very upset with this purchase, next time I'll be aware of this brand.P.S I tried to sharpen my Cold Steel SRK but as it appears the red bolt is short to hold such a thick knife parallel.."
+11885,2,Best cooling fan ever,"I have the first PS3 system (don't know how many gigs it has though) and I had gotten this fan or an earlier version to go with it. My system has lasted for about 6 years due to this fan and I only had to clean the fan once! My current fan has just died after 6 years of hard core gaming this morning. Thank you my precious Intercooler for making these many years of gaming worth wild. O and I plan to get this one to replace my old one.Reasons for liking this fan:1) adjustable fan speed2) it actually works to reduce heat3) the ON switch is in the frontReasons you might not like the fan:1) can be loud at first but keep playing, you'll forget it's on2) slightly difficult to put on, be gentle though and don't loose your temper!3) plugs will be a tighter fit4) after three-four years it will begin to fade5) after three years the label will begin to peelOther than that it will be worth the purchase!-Bubbles"
+11886,2,A journey from horror to hope,"Well, again, a book documenting human destruction being visited upon mother earth, but one that takes a cultural perspective based in anthropology. It seem that in this case, Thom understood he'd be preaching to the choir, and so he decided to focus on a good, inspiring sermon (at least in the second part of the book, the first is a little too much horror all at once. Not to say it was unintentional.)The corporate crowd spent the 90's denying that there was any such thing as a greenhouse effect, and now that it's too obvious to ignore, they're denying we are causing it. Okay. Why not just human up and figure out how to do things better? Consider the effect on the next seven generations. Which is to say, forever."
+11887,2,It was amazing,It really made me think about what would happen if this was truly a real story and all of that really happened
+11888,1,Poor hard rock/metal prog album,"I was never able to get into this CD. To me the whole thingjust sounded like a bunch of hard rock tunes strung together. There was nothing ""strange"", ""interesting"", or ""different"" about the album. Nick D's voice is as plain as they come, and his ideas seem just as bland.As a another reviewer menttioned, what happened to the bottom end on this album? Also, can't they turn down the distorted guitars just a bit, and use it a bit more sparingly?Feel Euphoria was a fine album, as it was actually striving to stretch musical boundaries. I still listen to the album nowadays.I have not listened to the Octane album for several months; it's just boring. The music jsut doesn't grip you and pull you in like, say, King Crimson's ""Power To Believe"" or Porcupine Tree's ""In Absentia"".If you want to hear real prog, then pick up Glass Hammer's ""Lex Rex"" or ""The InConsolable Secret""."
+11889,1,80'S GLORIOUS CASIO KEYBOARD SOUND RULE'S DUUUDE! NOT!!!!!!,"LYRIC'S GOOD MUSIC, BAAAAD!!John Fogerty fall's prey to the worst of what the 'EIGHTIES' music scene had to offer!CLICHED' DRIVEL!"
+11890,2,Thermo Tumbler Glasses,"Originally we purchased a set of 4 glasses that only held 8 oz. They were too small for our normal drinking, so we purchased a set of 6 12 oz. glasses and have been quite happy with them. They keep beverages cold for a long time and are easy to handle and drink out of."
+11891,1,This is the best book,I think that this is the best book. There are many things you need to learn. I prefere to buy everyone.That's all
+11892,1,Sticky pan and hot handles - Not recommended,"I don't want to buy a non-stick pan because based on the reviews I have read, I found even for $150+ non-stick pans, the non-stick coating would wear off within a couple of years and you end up eating them. And they require some careful everyday maintenance which my girlfriend never cares.The specifications on Amazon.com describe this pan is stick-resistant and has stay-cool handles, which were two main reasons why I bought it.However, I found neither of them. The pan is more sticky than a regular iron pan. The handles are very hot after cooking.I wouldn't recommend this to anyone even though it's really cheap."
+11893,1,CONTINUOUS EMASCULATION .....a slight correction please.,"Whoops!So sorry - I meant to call this movie a ""large, calorie filled English TRIFLE"" - there's obviously no such thing as an English Triple [unless it's ""Sunday, Bloody Sunday""].also""Glenda Jackson is one of the most gifted acresses of the 20th Century - no one has [not had] ever reached her zenith"" Apology to Ms. Jackson - she's still # 1.blame it on the tri-focals.Sorry again."
+11894,2,More good stuff,"Not a masterpiece like Athyra, but thoroughly enjoyable. I had fun with the back-and-forth points of view (Kiera and Vlad), and there was a truly stunning revelation at the end. Now when is the NEXT Dragaeran novel coming out?(Naturally, you should start the series with Jhereg or with Taltos if you haven't already. Jhereg and Yendi might be a little callow, but still worth it. Even more worth it since in time you'll get to read Athyra.)"
+11895,1,bad idea to buy through amazon,"product came quickly enough but box was damaged. plastic hub over rear sprocket was shattered but rest of contents seemed ok. after removing bike and starting to assemble, had all kinds of trouble. The front brake line was not connected to the handlebar. called kent and they said they usually pay to have a local bike shop assemble and tune up the bike when purchased over the net. how come i did'nt get this service when i purchased through you. another problem is the tech dept of kent is only open until 3:30 eastern time. i have a problem with shifting into highest gear on the main sprocket and work during the day so i can't reach tech support when i get home. i need help with this problem and i'm not paying a bike shop to do it.all in all i would not recomend buying a bike this way and would tell anybody that if asked. i think going to bike shop or sporting goods store would be better. if you have a problem you can talk to them and have it fixed."
+11896,2,Gorgeous gold images,"This is by far the most beautiful deck I own with gorgeous gold images. The scenes are mesmeriszing. I do wish there was a book to explain the symbolism behind each card. But alas, I will have to rely on intuition and outside research."
+11897,2,Misleading title doesn't detract from it's content.,"As another reviewer had mentioned, this is not about programming the WPS. It's all about Presentation Manager (PM) programming in C. It covers the Window(ing) APIs in great detail. I found this the better book for me after reading Advanced OS/2 Presentation Manager Programming. Has good coverage of WinCreateWindow and it's parameters. Code seems to follow good form, however, I preferred the form in the aformentioned book. This book includes a disk, which I haven't accessed, as I am still reading through this. This book was easier to ""sit and read"" than Real World Programming for OS/2. I happen to prefer C and PM, and it's APIs, than C++ objects in SOM. But I guess it's a matter of preference. I gave it a four due to it's great PM understanding, it would have receieved a five if the title actually related to the material."
+11898,2,Buy This Record!,"You've found it! Buy this record! Linda Ronstadt and the Ray Santos orchestra perform Latin swing music! The arrangements are crystal clear, snappy and crisp. Her voice, her Spanish phrasing, is flawless. The song selection, Frenesi, Perfidia, is inspired; not a mediocre number in the bunch! Do you like to dance? You can't sit still for this music. This is not the canciones mariachi music (fine in its own right, I'm sure). For some reason, people don't know about this record. I had them play it in a CD store recently - the employees didn't want me to buy it and take it away! You'll thank me for this one!"
+11899,2,A great TV at a great price,I like this HD TV. The DVD's played on a progressive scan DVD player are very life like. The panaroma mode is a reasonable compromize when watching non wide screen format like regular TV channels.Very simple to use.Appearance is pleasing and even though its a picture tube TV it did not look overly bulky in my living room.Rather than pay lots of money for a plasma I decided to go with this one.
+11900,1,Its in French stupid!,"Silly me, I ordered this book (I'd heard the play via the internet from the BBC and wanted to read it) not realizing that it was in its original language. IF you read French (I don't, despite the efforts of teachers many years ago) I'm sure it would be enjoyable."
+11901,2,Punk All The Way,"This is a wonderful ablum...it contains some unreleased versions of tracks and hits you hard in the face, wanting more...If you are tired of cheap pop music(britney spears, BSB) they play on MTV or the cruddy mainstream(Korn, Slipknot) or wannabe punk(blink 182) then get this ablum. It will give you an urge to get more punk ablums."
+11902,2,Fun concertos...,This is a great CD. Buy it! You'll love the melodies and listen to every track over and over (as I did).
+11903,1,should have stayed lost,"this poor excuse of a collection is very poor transfer and sound wise,plus as my kids say ""these movies are no good""!!!!! i rest my case!"
+11904,1,confounding,"IMPOSSIBLE to use. If you want something simple to set up and fast to respond, buy something else. There are enough detailed reviews of this product so I'll keep it at that. I just wanted to put in my one star rating."
+11905,2,They've Still Got It!,"The Muppet Show - The Complete Third SeasonThose of us who grew up with the Muppet Show as children always looked forward to sitting down and eating dinner in front of the TV. It was like live Theatre to us.As adults, we can appreciate what our parents liked about the show.The DVD is well cut, and the bonus features are worth the price, which is low! Grab this one for sure!"
+11906,1,You get what you pay for.. or do you?,"I bought a this starter mp4 for my wife. After the ooo and awww of a little video, came the real reason of why it is so cheap.It has battery charge issues like the first generation iPod Shuffle. Bad part is, there is no warranty and support.It is like the Shaq sneakers from Payless. Look great for the first couple of months until it is not returnable. And you can't upgrade to a pair of jordans. Be Warned!!"
+11907,2,THE best album of 1998. Period.,"The CPD's are by far the best band alive in America today. ""Zoot Suit"" is the best CD of the year. On stage, I have never seen a band more charged and on fire than the CPD's. All other swing is boring lounge music compared to Zoot Suit. Steve Perry is one of the top three lyric writers on my personal list, making their music all the more enjoyable. The lyrics are complex, intelligent, morally pointed, and clever. The music is rich, catchy, diverse, and incorporates more instruments than other swing bands. The CPD's are definitely not smooth and syrupy like other bland bands. They have the same demented, spastic gusto they started out with years ago, and are only going to get hotter. All other bands, including the ""masters"" of days-gone-by swing (with all due respect, of course), are left foundering in the wake of the CPD's."
+11908,1,Wanted It To Work Out,"When Enfamil's direct competitor's formula was constipating my newborn son, I was forced to find another formula for him. Instantly, I thought of the Enfamil brand, and ran out to purchase some cans for my baby. Wow! Now he had diarrhea. The diarrhea didn't end until I stopped giving him the Enfamil."
+11909,2,Classic,"It is hard to write a book on Babe Ruth with so many already published but this account is fantastic. As a life long Red Sox fan it is hard to read anything on Ruth, especially pre-curse reverse, but Leigh Montville has done an outstanding job."
+11910,2,Harriet Tubman from a different perspective,I don't remember seeing or reading a book on Harriet Tubman as a child. Wendy Lawton's account of Harriet Tubman's childhood life was very realistic to me. I could visualize the deplorable conditions of the slave quarters as well as the less than nice slave owners. The book is easy reading and peeked my interest right from the start. Well worth the reading.
+11911,1,Don't Bother: Poor quality and not as advertised!,"When my item arrived the screen was scratched, but besides that the picture didn't ""shine through as if by magic"". It was difficult to view videos because the screen was so dark and it was so reflective all you saw was your face shining back at you. Even if it was free it would not be a good case. Don't waste your time or money on this product."
+11912,2,Perfect,"Judy is a hard working lawyer. Get the job done. Her best friend Mary is still recuperating from her wounds. Mary's father, adored by Judy, asks a favor. Can you help my friend Pigeon Tony? he has been arrested for murder.What follows is a great suspense and courtroom thriller full of great humor, interesting characters and most of all an enthralling story that you will not be able to put down.This is not so much a whoddunit as it is a whydoneit! Great read and I am glad to see Scottoline back to her old self.Buy this one."
+11913,2,Useful for teachers needed to add in music,"These games are great for using music to stimulate thinking, planning and connecting with emotional response. DO NOT CHOOSE THIS BOOK if you are looking for ideas around a progressive (building each week on previously learned) music skills education curriculum. It is great for incorporating music, rhythm and sound into everyday teaching environment."
+11914,2,Excellent Game!!,"This game may as well salvage my liking for the X-Box. Beautifull graphics, smooth gameplay, lavish worlds, and classic hack n slash with fully adjustable camera views, come together to bring you a Baldur's Gate on steroids. Well worth it for any RPG fan. The only downside is, it's not long enough to satisfy my addiction."
+11915,2,$$$$$$$$$$$$$$,i love this movie so i was looking to buy it on amazon because i thought it would be cheaper than going to the store but seriously the price that is being charged on here is ridiculous that disc better be made of gold i mean almost a hundred bucks for a dvd!! no thank you i will keep searching elsewhere.
+11916,2,A fascinating read,"I picked this book up in the hopes of making my wait for HP5 more bareable, and I am pleased to say it was well worth it. I am surprised that it would be considered a children's novel, not because of its themes (although I found the ideas to be rather abstract) but also because of its writing. Pullman writes in a textured and sophisticated manner more appropriate for adults than 9 year olds. I can see many a child being lost in the prose, rather than the story.Having only read the first book, I must admit that I don't see why anyone would find this novel offensive. True, I am not religious, and yet for those who are, the first book is not even set in our world, and therefore, anyone with rigid beliefs, could pass the book off as nothing more than fantasy.All in all, an engaging read, and I will definitely be reading book 2, ""The Subtle Knife"". For younger readers however, I maintain that Potter is more appropriate (and still my favourite!)."
+11917,1,very disappointed,"When I tried setting up this tuner on my laptop (a Dell Inspiron 8600 running Windows XP Pro, 512 MB RAM and an NVIDIA video card), I could only tune to 4 (FOUR!) cable channels. Although tech support was helpful at times, I could only access them via email; Sabrent's phone line NEVER offered live customer service. This was a complete waste of time/money. The return process, which was very easy, was by far the best part of this experience."
+11918,2,Very good toy!,We bought this school bus for our grand son when he became 1 year old. He liked it very much. This is nice useful reliable toy.
+11919,1,junk dont buy,"you will get frost bite and destroy anything that you use this on, dont buy this crap, use your air compresser not this."
+11920,2,18 Month Old Uses Daily,"Sure he may have the Chicken Dance Elmo, a brand new slide, etc. but the toy he uses every day is this one. He will grab me by the finger and pull me upstairs and into the playroom, sit down next to the puzzle and pick up each piece, wait for me to say what it is and then put the piece back, moving on to the next until all of them are done, then he will do it over again.He will now remove the triangle when I ask where the pizza is as well as remove the octagon when I ask him where the stop sign is at. The others are hit and miss and probably more luck than anything else. I am afraid though that I may have taught my son that a triangle is a pizza and that an octagon is a stop sign. Yikes. Hopefully it isn't too late to switch from telling him what is underneath the shape to what the shape actually is. . .Great toy and educational."
+11921,1,Not useful!,"Well, Bill Gates hits us again with a book that didn't need to have been written. Read Fast Company and Wired for a month to learn more about the emerging digital world. Even the venerable WSJ is more cutting edge, taken as a whole. In short, if you've lived in a cave since 1993, then this is the book for you. Otherwise, skip it."
+11922,2,Halfway Through,"Halfway through the book now, I stop and think to myself; How could someone- anyone- write such a wonderful, aweinspiring piece? Luna Lovegood is now one of my favorite characters, and I'm sorry to see the character that dies go. I would recommend this book to readers over the age of 10."
+11923,2,wonderful wood doll furnature,the furnature wal well wrapped and my daughter loved each peice as wel pulled it out of the box. she loves playing with it and it's very well made. you get a lot for what i paid for most others you would get one room this is a whole house of furnature .
+11924,1,Dangerous toy!,"One of my kitties LOVED this toy, and the other kitty couldn't care less.This morning the kitty that loves this toy got horribly tangled up in the toy. The bungee wrapped around her paw and when kitty tried to get it off, it just got tighter, cutting off circulation. It was very difficult to restrain her and cut the bungee string off.Just a warning - this can be a fun toy, but have careful supervision!"
+11925,2,An Introductory Book,"While I did enjoy this book, I believe that it only serves as an introductory preface to the theorem. It does present all of the main ideas, but it fails to provide a network with which to tie them all together. When used with another book, such as Fermats Enigma by Simon Singh, many of the ideas come together so that the reader can see where Andrew Wiles proof came from and how it works. I would recommend this book for those who have very little knowledge of the theorem and would like to know a general outline."
+11926,2,A good standard Clamp,As with the entire quick grip products the features that should entice you to buy and use the Quick-Grip 524 Bar Clamps are the ease of adjustment and the fact that it won't mar even the softest of wood yet still provide ample force for your project. People with low hand strength or hand pain can use the trigger ratchet used for the adjustment with ease. It only requires a firm squeeze just over the pressure used for scissors.
+11927,2,An experience not to be missed,"I've been a Celtic music fan for many years, long before it began to turn up on the New Age charts. While I don't mean to knock that genre (which has given some splendid traditional musicians -- e.g., the O'Domhnaills of Nightnoise and Alasdair Fraser of Skyedance -- the wider listenership they deserve), traditional Celtic music is an altogether grittier, funkier breed.Ciaran Carson brings a poet's sensibility to the performer's-eye perspective of Irish music, from last night's fun to the next morning's rude awakening. Irish music isn't simply the tunes themselves; it's the old-timers who performed them, the instruments they played, the pints of Guinness, the choking smoke in the bar and the pouring rain outside, and Carson conveys the whole experience admirably. It's almost as good as being there."
+11928,1,Muddled,"I disagree with the previous reviewer. Ives' wild 4th deserves better treatment than this. Ozawa is known for making bad recordings with great orchestras and this disc is no exception. This was the first version I owned of Ives' 4th and I liked it enough to buy a second recording. Michael Tilson-Thomas' reading with the CSO is miles better than this, the detail, especially in the 2nd and 4th movements (the most rhythmically complex and difficult to conduct and perform) is brought out to a wonderful degree. Ozawa simply buries a lot of this. Furthermore, Ozawa does not bring out the American folk tunes and hymns that Ives so cunningly weaves into the overall fabric of this eclectic work. Tilson-Thomas does all of this AND manages to make the 4 movements cohere symphonically, something that not many conductors of this piece can do. Ozawa just flounders, frankly."
+11929,2,AWESOME book!,I LOVE this book!!! I recieved it as a gift when I was pregnant w/ our 1st child & now I purchase it for my friends when they get pregnant.Sweet & moving book!
+11930,2,raw and beautiful,"When I first heard this disk, I cringed a little bit -- it was SO electric, and I was used to the softer sound of Living with the Law. But I gave it a chance, knowing that Chris Whitley doesn't put out bad music. And what I would have lost, had I never listened to it again! Narcotic Prayer is one of the most plaintive, beautiful songs I've ever heard. Guns and Dolls continues to be on my list of favorite songs of all time. And fans of the acoustic sound will inhale the wonderful New Machine and Days of Obligation, the hidden track. Even if you aren't a fan of the electric sound, you can't help but love the raw anguish oozing from Whitley's voice and guitar-playing on this album. Buy it!"
+11931,2,All Bound For Mu Mu Land,"The White Room is a great dance party album. It was released in 1991 and maybe a few years ahead of its time. They weren't your standard All-American group but they made some nice songs. I got the CD because I wanted to hear ""Justified and Ancient"" but I didn't know it was re-mixed so much that it got it's own CD single. Other greats songs are the singles ""3 AM Eternal"" and ""What Time is Love?"" I also like ""Church of KLF"" and ""Build a Fire"". Brings back 10th grade memories. If you're for a good 90's dance record, look no further."
+11932,2,great little pot,"I love this pot, and use it once or twice a day from making oatmeal, to boiling pasta, to making cheese sauces. I've never had a pot boil water so quickly. It cleans up so easily, even if I put in in the dishwasher. The only thing this pot didn't recover from was when my husband severely burnt popcorn in it. We had to order another one. Fortunately they had it on Amazon."
+11933,1,DO NOT BUY,"What a piece of garbage. First of all, the volume is so bad that all the way turned up you can just hear it, not loud or even capable of being loud, second, the thing locks up so much, you'll spend more time removing the battery and resetting it than you will enjoy it, and third, the customer service is horrible,they are a bunch of rude people who think, people like being talked down to. my player stopped working within one year and after sending it back for repairs, they told me to buy another battery for $72 dollars are they would give me a 15% discount on a new one. why would I want to buy a new one in only one year. I am not normally so upset over any purchase but please take it from me, you'll be very sorry if you purchase this mp3 player."
+11934,2,Lot's of Good Information in a Small Package,"I have only had a chance to scan through this book, but I could immediately see it is loaded with great information that just might save your life. It's also small enough to fit into a backpack and take up very little space."
+11935,2,A Fairly Broad Overview of Tillich,"Paul Tillich is a heavyweight in Protestant theory, like him or not. This book provides a fairly diverse array of his writings, and a small window into the mind of a prolific and well-known author. Tillich scholars themselves will have to judge how representative it is. I considered it a fair selection, and some of Tillich's writings to be more accessible than others. The selection of Tillich's writings on Socialism is very light, as the editor acknowledges. This book is probably not for the casual reader, so serious readers only need apply themselves to it. I agree with Tillich's liberal and radical proclivities, and he makes a fine argument for the complexity of religious symbolism, as well as a more progressive and inclusive perspective of other religions."
+11936,2,Dragon Ball Gt Final bout,"This game came out a long time ago.This game is rare in the U.S.A.In japan there were alot.Anyway you can play as :Cell,Skinny majin buu,S.S.Vegeta,Trunks,Goku,small Goku,S.S Goku,S.S. small Goku,Gohan,S.S Trunks,Tank top S.S trunks,Gohan's daughter,S.S Vegeto,S.S 4 Goku,and more.So basically this is an awesome game so if you see it buy it before anyone else does.Also you can go fight in the world tournament and train in the hyper bolic time chamber and do many more things."
+11937,2,Great twisty plot,"I must say this was certainly better than I expected. Most of us are used to twists and turns, but the Coffin Dancer threw me; time and time again. It's a very good read."
+11938,1,Flawed Revisionist Biography,"This book does give the most complete information yet available on Waffen SS panzer hero Jochen Peiper. Unfortunately, it is also a severely unbalanced account. No where is the version of the Malmedy massacre survivors given any credence. Peiper's witness of some of the first gassing experiments doesn't appear anywhere and his superior, Heinrich Himmler, is described as ""a misunderstood figure in history..."" Get the picture? SS expurgation. Yes, this is a good account of Peiper's career, but to get at least a little perspective, take a look at Richard Breitman's book on Himmler: Architect of Genocide. The references to Peiper will give you a clue about the side of Peiper not described... And for a balanced description of the massacre proper, see John Bauserman's detailed book on the incident. Mike Reynold's ""The Devil's Adjutant"" also strikes a better balance... Of course if you are interested in unvarnished Waffen SS hero worship with great pictures, look no further."
+11939,2,Missing his best song!,"Why is there not one CD collection of Arthur Alexander that includes one of his best songs ever? I'm talking about ""Sally Sue Brown""."
+11940,1,Disappointed,"I bought this stereo based on the customer reviews and of course the low price. I returned it. The CD player worked for only a few hours before conking out. The digital tuner did not tune stations as well as I can with my other, non-digital radios. But most of all I was disappointed with the sound quality. It was very poor in my opinion and sounded like I was listening to it in the bathroom."
+11941,2,Gonzo Rules,"If you are a fan of Gonzo you should already know how this review will end. Ever since I watched Hellsing in its entirety I remained confident that Gonzo were one of the best production groups in Japan. I have been a fan of anime for years, I have seen Akira, Ghost in the Shell and Perfect Blue to name but a few and consider myself an expert in this genre and Last Exile certainly does not disappoint. After viewing all seven DVDs in the series it is clear to say this is one of the most epic stories I have seen in a long time. It certainly does demand a distinct level of imagination from its viewing audience but once you become emersed in the world of exile you will find it difficult to escape. This is one of the best anime series I have seen and I've seen them all."
+11942,1,Too bulky,The remote is very thick. You need a side picture to see how thick this thing is. The buttons are not comfortable either.
+11943,1,Worst Customer Support Known to Man,"TrendNet quite possibly has set the bar for the worst technical support level ever. After reading reviews on several sites regarding this exact issue, I still decided to purchase the device thinking that my mid-range IT capability might stand a chance. Big mistake so far.So far, I have called TrendNet six times. Twice, they have told me they would call me back and never did. Once, I was on the phone with an technician that I could barely hear or understand. Once, they hung up on me after holding for 17 minutes. And most recently, I was told I would either have to hold for 30 minutes or get a call back.With the one call that was successful, I managed to get my Windows XP computer up and running. I then made the mistake of hanging up and trying to get my Windows Vista computer up and running.Still no luck, although I haven't yet tried calling the seventh time...No chance of buying a TrendNet of any kind in the future."

+11945,2,Excellent Parent book to understand K-8 grade Mathematics.,"I found the book in the library and took it home. I find it to be an excellent book describing every mathematical function from counting and the number line to logarithms and square roots, including fractions, decimals and percents. I'll be using this book as a reference for sequential teaching as a volunteer tutor--that's why I'm purchasing this book today."
+11946,2,Instant Classic,"It's Soul for the millennium! Donnie is on the next wave of music. This is one cd you need to hear! Listening to Donnie's music is like taking a swim where the ocean meets the river; while it's calm surface pacifies the soul, don't get it twisted, the undercurrent will pull your a** in. In a word, Donnie's music is the TRUTH. The Colored Section is an absolute MUST HAVE CD! Donnie's voice, presence, and message is so ready to be heard."
+11947,1,DON'T BUY THIS!,"This product is over-priced, shoddy quality, and if you don't like it you can't get a full refund. I was disappointed with the cheap plastic skeleton, the music box that twangs awkwardly and only lasts a couple minutes, and the fabric that does nothing for my baby except match her bedding. Now that I want to return it I learn that they won't refund the $14 shipping & handling that I originally paid, AND I AM SUPPOSED TO PAY FOR IT TO GET SHIPPED BACK TO THEM. So now I am still out $14 of the $50 I paid for this thing, I have to pay to send it back to them, and I still don't have a mobile for my baby's crib. What a racket!I am SO sorry I bought this thing and now I'm out $20, the lost time of dealing with all this, and nothing to show for it."

+11949,2,storyteller,Bryony Ashley inherits Ashley Court after her father's sudden death. She has no idea how to run it when she finds out that that responsibility is in the hands of a cousin. There is a telepathic link between her and an unknown source which she has had for years. A flood and the maze at the mansion guard secrets and uncover hurtful memories. As usual Mary Stuart can spin a good yarn. This one is no exception.

+11951,2,An upfront challenge for the brainy,"I have chosen to read this book as it is listed by a world distinguished magazine among the best spy novels ever writtenThe plot is a challenge to the reader intelligence since one cannot predict the outcome until the last word on the last page, and that is the essence of a spy novel. Who is outsmarting who ?"
+11952,1,Not worth it.,I got these for a science project for my son. We get to the park all ready to go and the things went a whole 8 to 10 feet. Hugh disappointment.
+11953,2,an all around awsome book,Serj should be heard by everyone around the world. His poems are amazingly good and correct about life in general. I have the specail edition one (cause sej signs it woohoo) and i keep it close to my bed so i can read his poems before i sleep. A must read by all.
+11954,1,A big disappointment,"This movie has the right pedigree - Coen brothers, George Clooney, throwback genre - but it plays surprisingly flat, its subpar script and forced performances pointing to the same issue: A general lack of conviction.OK, Catherine Zeta-Jones is mostly on message, and Billy Bob Thornton gets into the right spirit. But otherwise the characters are thin (or just plain annoying) and the actors overcompensate by playing up the offbeat, perhaps thinking that quirkiness is all it takes to make a Coen brothers movie. The tone here is set by Clooney, who can't seem to decide whether he's in The Philadelphia Story or O Brother Where Art Thou? His broad touches might work better if this were a funnier movie, but here he's just trying too hard.Though they wrote it - or at least punched it up - this script doesn't do the Coen brothers right. Alas, they seem to know it, and so do their performers."

+11956,1,these are my nasty little thoughts,"letters, little black backpack, and washin and wonderin are three of the best pure pop rock songs i've heard in a while, honestly. if the rest of the cd was up to that quality, it'd probably be one of the best and easily the catchiest cd's i own. unfortunately, it's not and the other 9 songs range from merely OK to simply terrible and when only 1/4 of a cd is any good, my friends, that's why the good Lord created Ebay and Kazaa. i'm not gonna spend my time knocking this cd trying to sound all self-important and pretentious and all that, in my mind, simply put, 3 of the songs on stroke 9's cd nasty little thoughts are really really good and the other 9 pretty much suck. they had all the potential in the world to write an album of great pop songs, but they burned out after 3 and released the album with a LOT of filler. and now they're a punk band, so yeah. disappointed, but it won't be in my cd collection for much longer. that's all from me."
+11957,2,Good story and interesting backdrop,Harris's latest shows plenty of research and insight into the 'new' Russia. He supports that expository information with a fast=paced plot. It strains credulity at times but it is fiction after all. Couple other thrillers you might want to check out-- R. Mayer's CUT OUT or ETERNITY BASE; J. Dalton's The Omega Missile.

+11960,2,Perfect highchair replacement,"If you lack a lot of space in your dining room or kitchen, as I did when my daughter was born, this is the perfect solution. Instead of purchasing a high chair, we just strapped this chair to a regular dining room chair, and it's worked perfectly. My daughter started using it at 4 1/2 months, even before she could sit up. The reclining positions make it perfect for this."
+11961,2,Haunting,"Comprised of the memories of some of the surviving twins, this book also includes photographs of them before and after the war -- totally eye-opening.Obviously, this book is incredibly depressing, and for that reason very difficult to get through. However, it was an aspect of World War II about which I hadn't known much before, and suspect that others don't, as well.No matter how much you might hate some ethnic group, I don't see how anyone could be so inhumane as to torture and dismember this way. People are people, no matter what.I always marvel at how these people can go on to live regular lives. I'm sure that once a person experiences such horrifying ordeals, the scars will never go away emotionally -- but even to give the outward appearance of going on? Takes an incredibly brave person."

+11963,2,Great gift for the Sci-Fi nut,"I bought this and the UFO Megaset as gifts for my husband for Christmas 2009. He loves them both, but was especially pleased that this particular remastered version of the Sci-Fi cult classic was done very well...to the point that in the old format, the words, which were supposed to be reversed, were not, but in this remastered version, the words are reversed as they are supposed to be, making it true to the plot. I'm sure that this fact will make more sense to the hardcore sci-fi fan than it did to me. Suffice it to say, this makes a great gift for that sci-fi nut in your life."
+11964,2,Great Willie Nelson Album,Great album of the best known Willie Nelson hits. Loved it and so will my granddaughter who is a Willie Nelson fan.
+11965,2,Great Rope albeit not easy to shorten,"Great rope, comfortable handles, however, shortening the rope is very difficult because it requires special pliers to compress the e-clips that retain the bearings into the handle. Then, the exposed rope end is held in place with a crimped sheet steel retainer that is very difficult to enlarge and free the rope end. Then, after shortening the rope, you have to re-crimp the deformed retainer and struggle to compress the e-clip bearing retainer back into the handle. Seems to me that for fifty-cents more, everlast could have used the threaded brass collar rope retainer that Reeebok uses and made it signifcantly easier for the consumer to be able to customize the rope length albeit not much easier to remove the e-clip retainers though."
+11966,1,"Pretty, but little substance","It makes me angry that ""Pony"" has so slickly marketed his Native American heritage *and* jumped on the marketing bandwagon that Monty Roberts has engineered. To be sure, the photographs are quite nice ('though I'd prefer fewer of ""Pony"" and more of the horses), and while I'm all for the popularization of ""kinder and gentler,"" methods of horse training/relating to horses, I hate the unabashed and tacky slickness of ""Pony Boy's"" whole self-promotion industry.If you want *real* information and insight on horse-human interaction and true relationship training, do yourself (and your equines) a favor and pick up one (or better yet, all three!) of Mark Rashid's books."
+11967,2,OUTSTANDING,"Great, wonderful and moving.. I cried my eyes out... EVERYONE DESERVES A SECOND CHANCE..... EVERYONE!"
+11968,1,Terrible!,"When I read the synopsis of this book, I was expecting something similar to Gary Hardwick's books. But, what I got were a lot of characters, a muddled-at-best plot, and a totally boring read. Gary Phillips had way too many characters in this book and trying to keep up with them felt like a job made for a police officer, NOT a reader. This is my first AND last book by Gary Phillips."
+11969,1,Kiplinger's Personal Finance Magazine,"I would love to review this magazine, but unfortunately I have yet to receive any issues. Instead I have been getting ""Field & Stream"", which I did not order. I wrote the so-called ""Amazon Help Dept."" over a week ago asking them to check this situation out. They promised a response withing 24 hours, but I have heard nothing back. Maybe this review will get some action. I hope so."
+11970,2,Mac cover,"I bought this for my buddy. He had looked at one, and he loves it now that he has it! Stylish and functional, what else could you want?"
+11971,2,Acid reducer,"This is a quite good acid reducer, most of the time, however, I have to take it twice a day as opposed to once a day that is recommended and I have been taking it every day for several years now and must but on the package it says to take it for only a certain length of time. That just doesn't work for me."
+11972,2,Great!,This movie turned out way better then expected! It's a really cool story and I would recommend it any day.
+11973,1,Good book. Abysmal editing.,"This 2010 edition is utterly horrible. Its a good book--3 or 4 stars for content. Zero stars for the hundreds of typos and other distracting errors this edition has. It looks like they scanned a previous edition with optical character reading but they failed to fix errors in the scan such as words appearing as ""modem"" when the particular word should read ""modern,"" further the layout is reminiscent of formatting errors that occur when you copy and paste to a word document from another source that just doesn't mesh well whatsoever into word formatting (the spacing between lines fluctuates throughout and lines trail-off early before reaching the margins). ""BNpublishing"" should be embarrassed of themselves. Fat chance I will ever buy another book from this publisher, lest it comes with a guarantee that they have since hired an editing staff."

+11975,2,Amazing Keyboard!,"Shipping was very fast. Came in a very well protected box and sealed up nice. Setup was quick and easy! The keyboard feels really nice, I'm loving the curved design, feels a lot better than my old keyboard. Keys are spaced out perfectly, everything works great! I highly recommend this keyboard to anyone! :DP.S The keyboard looks black in the pictures but in reality its more like a blue-ish color."
+11976,1,Extremely Dissapointed,I really found this book to be a big BORE!! I was looking more towards a fitness program of some sort but instead found myself reading through jibber jabber that never really got to the point...FITNESS AND PERFORMANCE.
+11977,2,Looking Good,"All the previoous reviews talk simply about how the game looks, system requirements, game engines, and other esthetic thing that make a good game. No one talks about the gameplay, though. I have played the demo, and let me tell you, it plays pretty darn good. The sys requirements are low, and no special hardware is needed. Yes, it runs on the same engine as AOK, but it is more an improvement on AOK than a detriment to it. The demo is great and I believe the fullversion will be a must buy."
+11978,2,"witty, charming, sophisticated, most importantly romantic","In the spirit of Jane Austin, Where Roses Grow Wild's social commentaries, of Victorian England, are nicely blended with wit and charm. The characters are engaging, the pace is high energy. Most importantly this Victorian romance leaves the reader wanting to know more about the characters, and this reader hopes that Cabot will indulge her."
+11979,1,"Honestly, it's a one star movie.","I never saw the first one, but I must say that I am compelled to write this review, because this movie really sucks. It has no character development, no coherent story line, and it carries on and on and on and on. I hope that I manage to damage the sales of item, because I think this movie embodies all that is wrong with our society as a whole. Enough of this garbage. How can something like this actually be out there? It sucks. Make me care, or don't make it."
+11980,2,The real enemy,Great read.... I love Sorge's work. His writing always forces me to examine myself. I loved this book and shared it with friends.
+11981,2,IT'S ALRIGHT FOR A PLATFORMER 7.25 OUT OF 10,"When I played this game I didn't think it sucked, and overall thought of it as an okay platformer. You play as Spiderman and the X-Men and your goal is to defeat some guy who's trying to take over the world and destroy them. The story is incoherent after that unfortunately. The graphics look great for a 2D game and the environments are wonderfully detailed. The character designs and enemy designs are great as well, and have a cartoony feel to them. The gameplay works fine most of the time, and really isn't a hassle. The flaws with this game are the sticky platforming obstacles which are difficult to figure out at times, the story sucks, the enemies are hard to kill sometimes when something is blocks them and the missions feel a little dull and repetitive. I didn't have a bad time playing this game, but it all depends; How much do you like Spiderman and the X-Men to buy this game or play it?"
+11982,1,Interesting Adventure Poorly Done,"This is another straight-to-video shark attack horror movie, with the same lame acting and poor special effects you would expect from a movie with a low budget. They do attempt to do a few things differently, such as having a school of sharks, as opposed to one shark. There is also a subplot involving the Russian Mafia searching for diamonds on a sunken pirate ship which I found to be pretty well-done. If you can get past the stiff acting by some of the stars and sit back to enjoy the movie, you might enjoy it. However, with no extras, it's hardly worth the cost to purchase it. I'd recommend rental instead."
+11983,1,Dark Blue Ocean and Dark Topography make difficult to read,"We bought the 27"" political globe a few years ago and my kids LOVED it27"" Inflatable World Globe - Political Mapping. Even adults are drawn in to learn geography. Yes it was big, but big is what made it so interesting. It stayed inflated for years until I let my kids play with it like a real ball. Lesson learned. I bought this one because it was cheaper and thought it would be equally educational...but it is difficult to read, and my kids couldn't care less about it...waste of my money."
+11984,1,Dr. Beth is WRONG,"FYI- I based my purchase decision largely upon the review listed above. Foolishly. This griddle is NOT reversible, so you cannot do pancakes etc. It is a rangetop GRILL, nothing griddle about."
+11985,2,review 1/20/01,"Im am a really big dance hall/dub fan. I found Whispering Lion's latest album very up lifting and easy to listen to. With so many releases that focus on negative stereo types and violence it was refreshing to hear something socially aware and pleasing to listen to. I also dj (mostly down-tempo, hip hop, dub) and will be looking for Whispering Lion on wax."
+11986,2,radio flyer my first scooter,Very happy with the scooter for my 2 year old. It is perfect for her age. Unhappy that I paid $14 in shipping through Amazon when you can buy it at Walmart for have of that. I got nervous with Christmas approaching and paid the shipping. The total being $50. The next day I went to Walmart and noticed a ton available for around $30 total! Live and learn.
+11987,2,The top of the cream,The best of the three dog night truly is the best singing in three part harmony of all rock n roll bands of the 60's and 70's. And even that is an under statement.What ever happened to them?
+11988,1,The truth...,"Just a correction to the correction. They do use foul words... ""Of course we got the same view on life as most people out there - it's too short and most of the time it's quite a shi**y business."" (Circus, July 2002, p.22)Other instances of P.O.D.s profanity; ""f---ing"" (Guitar World, Nov. 2001, p. 54); ""D--n it!"" (Drum!, Sept.-Oct. 2001, p. 86); ""p--s us off"" (Drum!, Sept.-Oct. 2001, p. 87) ""d--n "" (Revolver, Nov/Dec 2001, p.63) ""p--sed off"" (AP, Nov. 2001, p. 59) ""half a-sed"" (Circus, July 2002 p. 22). And there are others.This album is ok. Southtown was a bit better. If you like metal there's definitely better albums out there. Imo, this isn't really worth the money. And I don't care about the profanity."
+11989,2,Must Have,"This headrest is perfect. Since day one my daughter has been comfy using this. When she was teeny tiny the insert kept her head from flopping forward. Now that she is bigger we use it without the insert and she's still happy. At 4 months she has wonderful head control, but I wouldn't put her in her carseat without this. I tried the head rest that came with her Graco car seat and it was terrible. It sort of lets her head roll all over when we carry her from the house to the car. For a small baby I wouldn't even think about using the flimsy headrest they give you with the seat."
+11990,1,Disappointing grinder -Coarse grind,"I always use the highest setting for grinding, but it comes out very coarse. I have to finish grinding my coffee in a blade grinder to use it in my espresso machine. Otherwise, the coffee comes out completely white. I did not go for a cheaper grinder thinking I could invest a bit more a get a better product, but this was a waste of money."
+11991,2,Love this Aroma,"Bought this for my wife for Christmas. We lit it and the aroma is just perfect, not too overpowering, and not too weak. The wick burned steadily and reliably. Will buy more when this one expires.kone"
+11992,2,A fair end,"Like most TV shows, earlier seasons were much stronger, but this season will give closer to long-time fans with a neatly wrapped conclusion that spans across 7 episodes."
+11993,2,a party in a slim plastic case,"A really fun and well executed ""album"" ....full of beautiful energy and great musicianship. Its one of those cds I can listen to over and over again and of which I will never tire. Alfredo de la Fe is a Master."
+11994,1,Worthless in Golf,"This game can only be watched, it CAN'T be played. There are NO ways to interrupt the game. It's a commercial for the Chrysler car company and a total waste of time and money. DON'T buy it!"
+11995,1,Honestly. don't bother,"This film has good production value, but was not interesting. The plot was weak and predictable. I know very little about rugby so my complaints have nothing to do with the depiction of the sport. It just wasn't an interesting movie."
+11996,2,Awesome!,I love their music and this CD does not disappoint! Recommended! I'm not sure what the difference is in expanded versus regular edition - this is the only one I had. Loved it.
+11997,1,not worth the money!,Pretty screen but very poorly made. We bought for 65 and noticed a recent increase in the price. Definitely not worth more than that. It came damaged and I had to return it. Hoping for something better in quality.
+11998,2,Love it,Made very well and my bigger bengal and the smaller one trade off. I am glad I made the purchase and recommend it.
+11999,1,Drill bits slip when drilling miniatures,"I used this for pinning miniatures. It works great for about the first little bit, but then starts slipping consistently. I didn't realize that this uses a plastic collet - it wasn't evident from the picture. Found a better one made by the same company (Excel) for $5 at a local hobby shop after I ordered this one, but before it arrived. I suspect that this one was highly overpriced.Also unlike most pin vises, this one does not have a swivel head. I knew that going in, but I figured I would give it a try. Turns out that the swivel head really is necessary."
+12000,1,A major disappointment...,"I bought this CD with the belief that it had to be good...even if I didn't know any of the songs. (It also helped that the reviews have been nothing less than stellar.) I think this is bad stuff...hey, I love the early Bette, too...but this is no ""Divine Miss M."" Also, on some tracks, Bette sounds like the child of Sandra Bernhardt crossed with the Spice Girls. Maybe I'm getting too old, but I'll stick to ""Bette of Roses"" and the very first albums."
+12001,2,Works great for reading in bed,"I also wanted to point out that the product image is not clear. It makes it look as if there is an angle to lean against. Actually, the foam is carved out in a way that your back fits in perfectly. I use this for reading in bed and it's more comfortable and supportive than just using pillows."
+12002,2,1st time saw user,The biggest problem is I cannot see the tip of the blade fom top when I saw. I have to go to side way to the right to see.
+12003,2,Gargoyles Vol1,Can't actually review this dvd because it seems to be the wrong format for my player here in Australia.Am trying to find a player that will play it.
+12004,1,Review of Zoolander-so sad,"I was anxious to get Zoolander as I had enjoyed Ben Stiller and most of what he has done, especially ""What About Mary"" with Cameron Diaz. With such a good cast,including Will Ferrel from Saturday Night Live and Jerry Stiller in a major role and Anne Meara in a cameo, it was disappointing to see this mistake of a take off on the modeling business. I wanted so much to like it but it just was too silly and fell very short of being clever and witty."
+12005,2,a very entertaining musical,"This is the first Shakira dvd that I've watched. It was very enjoyable and is suitable for all ages. The first half of the dvd was better than the second half, but for her fans the bonus featurette will more than make up for that.I thoroughly enjoyed her singing."
+12006,2,Wow!,"This poetry is so honest and open, and I admire Tonya Marie Evans for putting herself out for all of us to see and to admire."
+12007,1,A Disappointing Book,"The self-important author favors generalizations, over-inflated ideas, and wrong terminology. The book is an quasi-academic treatise in which obvious concepts are discussed in depth by a writer of limited professional knowledge. I returned my copy. Spend your book-buying dollars on another title."
+12008,2,"great cookbook, lots of variety",This is a great vegetarian cookbook to have especially if you're trying to eat foods that taste great and are also good for your health. Plenty of variety to choose from and most of the ingredients are easily found even at the average grocery store. This will definitely be a cookbook that I will come back to repeatedly. Anyone who likes good food will enjoy this book. Who ever knew healthy cooking would taste so heavenly?
+12009,1,Holy Bible,This Bible is pleasant but not very interesting if you are looking for a bible with footnotes. I was disappointed with it.
+12010,1,Very Good album. Horrible Sound Quality.,I can't believe the people at Razor & Tie records actually thought releasing a re-issue that sounds like it was transferred from a cheap record player was a good idea. It is the worst sounding re-issue I have ever heard. Maxine Nightingale and her fans deserve much better than this.
+12011,1,"tries for clever, succeeds at confusing","Could this author have tried to keep the plot more close to the vest? This book I found to be boring and confusing, simply because the author tried to have a surprise around every corner, for example, circling for 5 pages about someone's relationship, just so she can spring the fact that they are actually father and daughter on the unsuspecting bad guy. I found myself turning to the end of the book to find out the big secret, so that the rest of the story would be mindly intelligable.Truly not worth it. And I disagree with the previous reviewer. Linda Howard and Elizabeth Lowell are far superior. This is not a worthwhile substitute."
+12012,1,DISAPPOINTED,THOUGHT THIS WOULD BE A GOOD QUALITY KNIFE AS MOST ARE BY THIS MFG..BUT IT PROVED TO BE A CHEAP VERSION.
+12013,2,35 episodes.... Where's the other 22 ????,"Wow! What a stroll down memory lane! I remember playing SWAT with my friends and even had a plastic replica gun from the show. Every summer when I went down to my grandparents in Southern California I wouldn't miss an episode on Channel 5. Since there were no VCR's or DVD's back then, I used to set my cassette recorder in front of the TV and record the sounds so I could still re-live each episode after I went back home to Northern California. I am so glad to see the release of this show on DVD. I didn't have to read reviews to know that I wanted this set. I got it for my birthday and I have watched all 13 episodes many times, so HEY SONY.... WHERE'S THE REST OF THEM???????? It is definitely a ""must have"" set."
+12014,1,A hack potboiler,"It could have been fun reading if it were written better, but it's horrible, really. From the beginning, the Americans gleefully slaughter medieval bad guys while spewing out jingoistic garbage. These Americans make The Terminator look like a diplomat. This is not for fans of fantasy or even sci-fi; but given its graphic and gratuitous violence, maybe for fans of horror."
+12015,1,"Not a series that is getting better, unfortunately","Not a good book. Each book in this series is less and less enjoyable. With minimal secondary character development, a 'villain' whose motivation remains obscure even at the end, and a main character who seems to be predisposed to distrust her significant other [who has never given her any reason not to trust him] and a plot that doesn't connect from one incident to another, don't bother!"
+12016,1,Embarassing Self Indulgent Garbage,I have no idea where these reviews are coming from -- guess you have to be totally stoned with no functioning brain cells to enjoy this turd. This is total garbage. David Crosby has no talent and is an total embarassment. Stay far away!
+12017,2,"Shipping Issues Aside, This Product Works",This works. I watched my very stressed out cat who was about to be taken to the vet for a psychiatric evaluation literally unfurl and relax for the first time in I don't know how long. This was my Vet's recommendation to try first and it does work. It really does!
+12018,2,Awesome book!,For all those who want to get into the field of Topology and then do Differential Geometry and then do General Relativity. Take this book as your first step to your final destination!
+12019,1,"Let it go, get over it.","Although there were some very good parts to this book for the most part it was dull, boring, and extremely bitter. The story was, is, and will be one of the best that I have ever read. Ellison must realize, though, that budget constraints MUST dictate what is and is not put on film. There is only so much that could be done at that time and it is not Gene Roddenberry's fault that Harlan Ellison couldn't understand that budgets could not be expanded to the size of the authors ego. If I were saying this to Ellison I would say get over it. What's done is done. James Kirk might be able to change the past but here on earth it can't be done. At least, not yet. Take out the bitterest foreword I have ever read and a few repeats of the screenplay and this book would be rated MUCH higher"
+12020,2,Bette Davis at Her Nasty Best!,"Bette Davis does it again in this movie. The story revolves around two sisters, Stanley and Roy. Roy, (Olivia DeHaviland) is married to Peter, and in the opening sequence, Stanley (Bette Davis) runs off with him on the eve of her own wedding. In this early film, Bette is sparkling and less mannered than her later films. Olivia DeHaviland is also good as the strong sister Roy. Dennis Morgan and George Brent as the two male leads are less memorable, but against these two ladies, who can blame them!"
+12021,2,WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!1,"Garth Brooks is my all time favorite singer. I love ALL his work, but especially Fresh Horses. Many people (i have read) do not enjoy this cd. But i dont understand what there isn't to enjoy. I mean most of the songs on there, if not all, are REALLY good. My friends always want to borrow this cd, so i bought two, one for me and one for my friends to listen to. And if you think so what, well get this, ALL of my friends despise country music, but they LOVE this CD, and a couple others of Garth Brooks' cds. If you get the chance to buy, DONT HESITATE!! It is THE BEST!!! Hats off to you Garth!! :)"
+12022,1,Cheese Spreader - Antique Ivory,"Very disappointed at this product. Looked better in photo than reality. Cheap, plastic, waste of money and certainly no antique or ivory."
+12023,2,The Rain Will Tell,"Again, I was hopelessly enthralled. It took me exactly three hours to read and I am just gonna say WOW! I got lost in my own need to avenge all those hurt by her maliciousness. Thanks for the entertainment and I waiting anxiously for the next...."
+12024,1,"Sammy one, Kong zero","As much as I'd like to say this toy was a five-star product, alas, it was not to be. I had high hopes that this would be the one toy that my bully mix would not be able to destroy. But she had it for only 10 minutes and had it destroyed to the point that I had to throw it away. If you have and extreme chewer like I do, this toy may not be for your dog, either."
+12025,1,I won't be reading the sequel,"I really wanted to like this book. I had just finished the ""Mirror of Her Dreams"" books, and loved them. But this one was almost painful to read. Donaldson's writing plunged into hack, striving for cleverness but failing. The plot was admittedly intriguing, but I had a strong sense of deja vu; where had I read this before? The characters seemed more plot devices, ""concepts,"" than real flesh-and-blood creatures: interesting, but never engaging. Finally, Donaldson continued his very disturbing and persistent (and, to me, pointless) trend of sexually threatening and abusing his ""heroines."" This book quenched my desire to read more into the Gap series, not to mention more Donaldson, as there are many other sci-fi books (and authors) with good story lines, but better writing and fewer offenses. If you have an incurable fascination with this author, you may like ""The Real Story;"" otherwise, there's not much to recommend."
+12026,1,Full Mess,"I read Full Tilt because I am a fan of the Stephanie Plum series and hoped that this would provide the same fun read. Unfortunately it does not. The plot is both farfetched and utterly predictable. The dialog is absurd. There is a mishmash of stock characters, not one of whom is convincing; the portrayal of a gay character is downright embarrassing. There is no real chemistry between the 'hero' and 'heroine'. The sense of place is all wrong; it does not feel southern. There is an uneasy mix of (not very funny) madcap or zany action and then violence. All in all, it is a major disappointment."
+12027,2,"Great piece of gear, lots of capabilities","This is a great piece of gear. It uses asynchronous USB transfer mode and independent re-clocking circuit for the best possible DAC audio performance. I use it primarily as a USB sound card/DAC and headphone amp. It drives headphones up to 600 Ohm without any issues. The only thing I wish for is a bit more volume headroom in the headphone output. My 600 Ohm headphones only get to a moderate volume with the headphone output set to maximum. But in all, I really don't have much to complain about."
+12028,2,Sony HT-6800DP 5-Disc Progressive Scan Home Theater System,"Very economical and a good value for the price. Assembly is simple, and instructions cover the basics. Too bad my ex-wife took the system with her when she left."
+12029,1,"Very unreliable seller, do not buy from him/her",I bought the product and it doesn't work. Do not buy any product from this seller!!
+12030,1,!!,"I hated this book. The plot just didn't bring me in, I realy liked the idea but it just wasn't realy a good book. I have other books by Ann MiCafrey (I highly recomend Dragondrums) and I realy liked most of them, but I found this one to be a let down."
+12031,2,AMAZING,"REally good stuff. all the good tracks. every fan needs this cd still. even though the quality of a live cd is usually not studio material, its still tight. 31 tracks. Go get it!"
+12032,1,Buyer Beware!,"These are NOT movies!! They are live-action plays on video. It does not say this in the product description. I should have read the other reviews and I would have known this. But, I think that Amazon has an obligation to be more clear in their presentation of the product to the consumer. Amazon was, however, very accommodating when I called to complain and requested a return authorization."
+12033,2,Laughed for Hours watching these episodes,Laughed for hours watching these episodes again. Last time i saw these was back in 1986 when the Monkees did there 2oth reunion tour and MTV ran the old shows and then Nick at Nite picked up the shows in 1987.This is a good way to spend some time laughing at old shows and forget about life for a while.
+12034,1,La Cubana 726,"i have owned this dvd for a few yrs and lately have had a discussion about how the three kennedy women are depicted as heroins but have little to be concerned about. i found no heroism in putting up with lies deceit, and affairs other than a fat paycheck should anything happen to one of the Kennedy bros?However, the heroin i supported was Ms Sally Heming, who was property of a US Pres and a woman with whom a US Pres clandestinely raped and with who he produced many children.The strengh with which this young girl(in the beginning) handled the rapes and assaults by a president has to be heralded, and goes beyond proving what so many great black families have had to bear.I am a now a retired atty, from Wash, DC and have met and been befriended by the relatives of Sally Heming, and know for a fact more than this movie will tell.Humanity tops power..All errors are miner but i offer no apologies because i know that THE READERS WILL GET OVER THEM?"
+12035,2,A Delight to Read,"From the introduction to the final passages, this compilation of Spinoza's thoughts is truly enlightening. It's not a particularly tough read, but I found myself needing some peace and quiet to really enjoy it. Spinoza's philosophies are insightful and well grounded. He exemplifies the rapidly changing intellectual climate he lived in, and most of his ideas carry over very well to the modern era. The book is an absolute delight."
+12036,2,Better than Jaws,I thoroughly enjoyed this book. Although some of the ides were far fetched;Sharks communicating vocally; many of the facts in the book seemed right on the mark. I would recommend this book to any shark enthusiasts who believe the possible existence of Megalodon.
+12037,1,Not helpful to me,"The content was very simplistic - I didn't learn anything I didn't already know. Also, the book is rife with typos and grammatical errors. That made me question the book's credibility; especially considering the topic is book publishing."
+12038,1,That's All???,"One of the most boring movies I have ever watched. When it was finished my wife and I looked at each other and said ""Is that all there is?"". I would only recommend this if you were having a hard time sleeping and need something to help you doze off. HORRIBLE!!"
+12039,1,Think Again,"I am very disappointed in the diaper genie. It was fine in the begging, I found it was not that hard to set up or even refill, for about three months. The ring that twist the bag started to get bent on the end, which made it harder and harder to use because it got so deformed that know it dose not fit. The bags are not that expensive but with the Diaper Champ you can use normal bags that you already have in your house. This was a shower gift to me, so I really didn't spend money to buy it.I wish I would have read more reviews on the Diaper Genie (and other products for that matter) before I put it on my registry because I would have ask for something else. I hope this will help someone else before making the same mistake."
+12040,1,the worst sports DVD ever,"You don't see anything but a few minutes of the opening ceremony (so if you're hoping to see all of Mr. Bean's routine, or the dance numbers, you'll have to go to YouTube) ; you don't see anything but a few minutes of everything! Not even ONE FULLY gymnastics routine or event! Absolute waste of money. I don't usually return DVDs--too much hassle--but I'm going to return this one. Am waiting for the BBC to issue the DVD of the Olympics. That one will be worth the time. I love the Olympics and missed them this year. Still haven't seen them."
+12041,2,The all-time classic of colonial India,"On the splendid visual backdrop of turn-of-the-century India, 'A Passage to India' is a timeless and classic masterpiece of English literature, poetically exploring relations between rulers and subjects, men and women, Englishmen and Indians. Forster's lucid style and unsurpassed technical ability comes together in a carefully crafted and delicately balanced work. With great sensivity and sincere love of the country, he conveys to the reader the full emotional spectrum of the cultural mosaic of India, from the most deeply felt pious devotion to various religious duties, to the unfathomable chasm of misunderstanding between natives and colonial rulers. On an higher impersonal level, Forster weaves an exact and finely constructed plot with almost supernatural undertones, as if the characters are drawn imperceptibly and unknowingly towards their fates by forces within the land itself"
+12042,1,Returned Item,The sound was fine. The problem was after less than 1 week if I paid $93.00 for them I do not expect the ear foam piece on the left side to come off from just removing them from my head. Amazon is very cool about returning an item because they are on the way today. Some people may think it is a easy fix but I looked at thinking if this happens in less than one week I am returning them I will use my $25 Sennheiser headphones until I decide my next decision but sorry it will not be a replacement of the same. Thanks Gin for your help.

+12044,2,Best Sign Language Video for ALL,"I not only have Vol 1-3 but I pre-ordered Vol 4-6 before they were even released. I wanted to get them as soon as possible. Why you ask? Because these are the all time best videos to learn sign language. As an adult, I have reviewed signs that I learned years ago, and my 2)grandchildren age 5 years & 8 months love watching them. Both are hearing children, but we are learning it as a second language. Because of the format my 5 year old catches on really fast and knows many signs just after watching these video for a few months."
+12045,1,Disapointing,"To sum up - disappointing. This is little more than a glorified coffee table book, and I would actually have preferred more pictures and less text. I read it in an a couple of hours, and was little the wiser, though with my appetite for more information whetted. Compared to some of the excellent French books on the subject, the content was negligable. ""Hornblower"" is thrown in every so often, but not in a consistent way, and eventually comes across as an irritating gimmick rather than a theme or thread. An intelligent reader could probably infer much of the information from a careful reading of the Hornblower series. Not recommended."
+12046,1,Inconsistent flashes,"For the first couple weeks it worked ok, only sometimes flashed at consistent intervals at the really low setting. Now however, it's only consistent at the highest settings and hardly works at the lower ones. I guess it's what you get for the price."
+12047,1,Misleading Title.,"This is NOT an owners manual. It is a book of violin articels. From the stand point of a hands on musican this book is useless. It seems to contain information geared toword the neophyte but it goes off onto tangents and angles representive of a Salvidor Dahli in book form. (Why bother puting information on the purchase of a mid-level instrument while omitting points to look for in a student instrument?)It has 0 (ZERO!!!) information on setups introduces nothing of use to students and nothing a more experienced musician wouldn't allready know just from hitting web sites.So to be concrete... This ""owners manual"" will not provide any DIY tips. Will not provide any information on DIY repairs or quick fixes. It's generally useless unless you happen to be really curious about the violin as an instrument. (In which case it would make a great coaster to put your coffey on while you read a more intelligently assembled book.)"
+12048,1,poor sound,"This product lacks an on/off button, a volume control, sound-cancellation, and does not have USB plug-in. It does have a long, flexible goose-neck. Tried talking to a brother in Hong Kong via Skype. He could barely hear me and told me not to buy such a cheap product. If you want to catch up with family/friends overseas using Skype, invest in a better microphone."
+12049,1,Clints poorest movie I believe,"No decent plot, and a overall poor film. I love Clint Eastwoods acting, and pretty much all of his movies except this one."
+12050,2,The sound of music.,The best deal thus far from Amazon ***** the sound of music limited edition Blu-ray DVD set for the low special price was an outstanding bargain. All that was included in the set just the DVD disc elsewhere would have been more thanks Amazon you are Amazing !!
+12051,2,Stylemaster 60 x 24 curtains.,I love them.They look so crisp. I put the panel between old curtains that I also love but that are sun damaged.I scrunched the old ones to either end of the rod. The smoke blue panel in the middle picks up blue in the old curtains beautifully.
+12052,2,A bit radical but good.,If you read this book you probably know what you're getting into.I recommend it conservative capitalists looking to challenge their world view.
+12053,1,silly little movie,Astronaut's Wife tries hard but it's just too silly to be taken seriously. Johnny Depp is fine as Spencer an astronaut who may be possessed by an alien but he's stuck with Charlize Theron. Although she gotten much better as an actress and went on to win an Oscar this year in this role she's ghastly. She was evidently directed to do an imitation of Mia Farrow ala Rosemary's Baby and falls flat partly becuase she's got to work with dumb lines from a poor script.Having said all that the movie is entertaining if you enjoy throwing popcorn at your TV and yelling insults at the actors.

+12055,2,Excellent !!,"I purchased two sets of these to replace our old clunky dinner set. Alot of people complain about the coffee cups being stoneware but I mean who cares. We dont eat out of the cups. If you take care of them,they wont break.The plates are excellent. Solid and these will last a very long time.5 stars all the way.ps- would of been nice to get a set with some color to it. we have white plates. someone told me when you put food on them then they have color, so makes sense."

+12057,1,Pathetic,This one is very hard to clean and colects so much molds and then stinks. We had this n it turned all orange with mold. It is very hard to clean as our hands cannot reach all the places.
+12058,2,Good book for Practical Advice on Time Mgmt,I enjoyed reading this book. The author has some good practical advice about allocating time for a big project. I'm embarking on the writing of my dissertation proposal and this has helped me put it all in perspective. I think this book contains useful advice for anyone embarking on a large writing project.

+12060,2,Worked great,This product worked exactly as I had hoped. I did not feel like I had to keep running to the bathroom. It was controlled and effective.
+12061,2,a weird but good book,The first thing you realize when is that Jeff has problems. These problems are one that only some one who has gone through something like what Jeff went through you don't really stop to think about. It seems like Paranoia is one of Jeff's big issues. Its my guess since I am not a parent the worst thing that can happen to someone's child is to get kidnap or if they just disappears.After almost three years of being kidnapped Jeff comes home and tries to be normal but its hard to do because he has to face certain issues and I seems like people keep reminding him of it.I would recommend this book to anyone who likes to hear about bad things happening to other people or anybody who just likes drama.
+12062,1,I guess I didn't get it...,"As an adult reader of YA novels, I was excited to begin reading one with such an intriguing cover and setup. I enjoyed the book for the first quarter or so, whereupon the author decided not to credit the readers with the ability to detect subtle themes. He began to throw themes in the reader's face with absurd redundancy, in case the reader hadn't picked them up already. The book was unnecessarily dark, the characters completely one-dimensional with only one part to play in the book, and the action was coreographed to fit the theme, not necessarily the characters. A poor showing, stilted, and with all the subtlety of a racist remark in a public place."
+12063,2,Tearfully Fantastic,Even though I had this CD since its release in September 1997 tears still come to my eyes whenever I listen to it. I have become addicted to this CD. This is Sir Elton's BEST release so far. It deserves more than five stars.
+12064,1,Crapola,Get Joe Pass at Montreux 1977 the one with Masquerade. This trio stuff dilutes the great Joe Pass with mediocre musicians. This CD here is pure corn. Everyone knows Joe only recorded this muzak for the money. Trolls and bots are welcome to comment.
+12065,1,Poor Structural Design,"Since buying this item, it has probably been used less than twenty times for drying boots. It works OK as a dryer, if you are very careful and/or don't put heavy boots on it.The base on this unit is two-piece (to allow shipping in a smaller box). The two plastic pieces are dovetailed together with insufficient reinforcement or gusseting, and the base broke on both sides where the pieces were joined. This is a very poor design.If you do buy it or already own it, I would suggest sanding the edges of the base where they meet, and thoroughly epoxying it together. I couldn't find any epoxy, so I used five layers of aluminum tape over the joints.I would not have bought this model if I knew it would break in normal use; and, I would look carefully at how the base joins, if you consider another model with a two-piece base."
+12066,1,This has to be the most overrated guy in horror,Don't let the good setup or back cover fool ya. This book makes 0 sense and has all the total WTFFF moments you can imagine and a tacked on ending. How does this moron get published? I want my money back!!!
+12067,1,Handle heats up & does NOT whistle,"I do like the color--reason I bought it-- goes with my KitchenAid Mixer and utensils, etc.; BUT it does NOT whistle. Tried less water so that there was enough space for the air to heat up and cause whistling, but it does NOT! Get involved in my writing and forget I'd put kettle on, so this is NOT good. Also, as another reviewer states, the handle does heat up seriously, unlike the kettle I have costing $2.95 which I purchased at the local grocer and to which I return gladly. Am returning this item and saving up for a much better kettle if I want one. NOT A KETTLE FOR DAILY USE. Mostly decorative."
+12068,1,Embarrassingly bad (and bad-looking) late career Alain Delon stinker!,"Another late career Alain Delon title to avoid! The transfer onto DVD is very poor, with uneven lighting, bizarre casting (Lauren Bacall as an American who speaks unaccented, finishing school French!), and a very scruffy, unattractive looking Alain Delon. There is a convoluted plot involving an aspiring model and her manager who come to a Mexican island, and she hooks up with Delon, and receives unlistened-to advice from Bacall. There is gratuitous nudity (mainly the two younger women in the film) including a strangely shot love scene between the model and Delon. Very talky, and ultimately forgettable. Oh yeah - did I mention Delon's character has a hot air balloon on his roof? Do you care? This would NOT be recommended for inclusion in an Alain Delon film festival!! Save your money!!"
+12069,1,THIS JUST IN: KINSEY MILLHONE LOSES HER VOICE!,"I just read L through P in one week. L through O were well told, light, funny, witty and worth the dollars I paid for each of them at the used book store. But P is for Peril marks the first book by Grafton at her new publisher. Grafton evidently forgot to cart along her former editor, who was largely responsible for Kinsey's quirky voice and character.In P is for Peril, Kinsey has lost her voice completely. Grafton has drafted someone new to fill the vast void the last editor filled so well. The voice is now serious, stilted and silly at best.The old Milhone is sorely missed, having died in O. O is for Oh, my, goodness, please bring back Kinsey!P is for Presposterous!Sue evidently has followed the old Lawrence Sanders suit (he had some flunky named Vincent write drivel in Sanders' name) and left the writing to some underling whose voice in no way mirrors Grafton's witty, light and clever one.Goodbye, Sue. You lost a once-dedicated fan...."
+12070,1,"Fluff, No Meat","I was disappointed in this. It appeared to be so promising. Instead it was more fluff and nothing all that concrete. I was also quite offended at her saying that rape by a stranger was ""The Ultimate Violation."" Not worth the money."
+12071,1,Adequate. Not built to last.,"I bought one of these for my s-10 digital camera, and proceeded to wear it around, somewhat extensively, after 6 or 7 months of owning it though, the stitching along the zipper came totally out, rendering it somewhat useless. I replaced it with a somewhat less fashionable, but more durable Samsonite camera bag.Also the zippered opening of this bag is prone to slightly scratch or mar plastic, or antireflective coatings such as those on camera LCDs."
+12072,2,BUY THIS CD!!!,These guys are one of the best local bands around!!! I bought this cd and listened to it for a few weeks straight! IT IS AN AWSOME BUY!!!
+12073,2,Very Comfortable Boxer Briefs,"These boxer briefs are very comfortable. They provide good all-day support and prevent chafing. The type of fabric and overall cut make up for the lack of a pouch design, which seems increasingly common these days. The fabric is quick drying as advertised.So far they are durable also. The still appear and feel new after several wear and wash cycles.I have also triedExOfficio Men's Give-N-Go Brief. I like these boxer briefs better, because this style seems more modern and addresses some of the issues I had with those ExOfficio briefs.Overall, I'd highly recommend these boxer briefs, even considering the price, because of the comfort, quick drying feature, and durability. They do have ""special"" care instructions in that they should be washed cold and then either air dried or dried on low. They dry very quickly after being washed, so I wouldn't even bother with trying to put them in the dryer."
+12074,1,Horribly twisted and disgusting,"This book not portrays every white person in America as a racist, but does so in a racist manner itself. The book cites almost no facts to prove its assertions that whites are inwardly racist because of their being white, and that radical measures such as affirmative action across the board (in jobs, schooling, housing, etc.) needs to become common practice to ""overcome the disadvantages of being Black."" The book claims to want to help all poor members of society, but mentions poor whites only in passing. The book does not effectively prove any of its claims, instead using obviously exaggerated and unlikely examples to make a point. This book only incited anger in me, not sympathy for the ""poor Black man."""

+12077,1,Lousy and Cheap,"This would be a great product if only they polished the edges; as it is, this thing is just stamped steel which by itself is no hit; but the EDGES. The edges are SHARP and will cut your shoes your socks and your skin.Perhaps we're expected to head over to a hardware store and obtain some sandpaper and polish and round off the edges?Or perhaps this is what inmates in federal penitentiaries order to file down into knives? It would be PERFECT for this!"
+12078,1,Buyers Beware !!!,"First the positive. John Brown's commentary on First Peter is a classic and should be a part of every Christian's library if they are serious about studying the bible. For the commentary in and of itself, I give a 5-star review.Why the negative? Because the ad as given is only for half of the commentary set!! Brown's commentary was originally published in three volumes. Sovereign Grace Publishers re-published this in a two volume set (volume one containing the original volume 1 and half of volume 2, and volume two containing the original volume's rest of volume 2 and volume 3). Therefore when purchasing this book, you are only getting half of the full original commentary set! That's a pretty hefty price for half a commentary."
+12079,1,Make sure you have the Smart Security System before you consider buying,"I purchased this product without reading the fine print. I do not own a GE Smart Security system, therefore this sensor is completely useless to me. This sensor ties into the alarm system. If you do not have the alarm system, there is no way for the sensor to alarm you.Taylor"
+12080,2,Great for morning smoothies!,"This stuff is GREAT! I genuinely appreciate Nature's Way products for their affordable prices, but more so for their high quality products. This powder is not only packed with vitamins and minerals, but also is made from whole foods and pea protein. It is very easy to digest, and even though it has double the vitamin content most multi-vitamins do, it has never made me sick to my stomach as nearly all multi-vitamins do to me.I will say that the ""chocolate"" flavor is very minimal, if you just mix it with milk you would probably never compare it to a glass of chocolate milk, but it's really delicious mixed with a banana and milk in the blender, or peanut butter as well.My favorite morning mix up:1 cup almond milk1 scoop Alive!1 tbsp peanut butter1/2 banana1 spoonful greek yogurtOverall I'm very satisfied with this powder. I feel full and energized after a smoothie in the morning. I will most certainly purchase it again!"
+12081,1,wasted my money on this toaster oven,"This toaster oven has been a disappointment. We got it not too long ago and one of the burners in the front already burned out and the broil pan is so hard to put in and take out. Also the toaster doesn't seem to work. The burners don't come on....it's definitely not user friendly. I've tried broil and the same thing happens, shouldn't the burner on top come on like an oven?! It seems to take forever for me to cook my sons french fries and other foods. You know how toddlers can't wait!!!"

+12083,1,Returning this c.d. came NATURALLY to me !!!,"As a long-time Sheena fan, this is probably one of her worst! Sheena has such vocal talent that she really doesn't need to stoop to this level of noise pollution like she did with ""The Lover In Me."" Thank God she is once again singing beautiful songs that her voice was meant to sing like her ""No Strings"" c.d."
+12084,1,Very disappointed,"I should have paid more attention to the reviews. Being a fan of horror satire (SCARY MOVIE etc) I thought this would be a great addition to the ones I already have. It isn't. In fact, it isn't even staying. I'll give it away as soon as I can find some poor unsuspecting soul who'll take it. It was a waste of my time and money.We have old looking teenagers gathering at a house that has a bad history. The resulting blood/mayhem is predictable and boring. Couple that with bad audio, non-existant effort on camera work, shoddy sets, amature actors and a script that should be shredded, we have a movie here that should come with warning labels. I'm thinking ""DO NOT BUY THIS MOVIE"" or ""IF YOU LIKE MOVIES WITH NO BUDGET, NO TALENT, NO HUMOR AND NO REDEEMABLE VALUE THIS MIGHT JUST BE WHAT YOU'RE LOOKING FOR""Normally I try to find something good to say about the things I review, but honestly, this one totally defeats me."
+12085,1,The biggest waste of money ever,"Seriously, this ranks up with some of the worst games I have ever played. It is a complete insult to anyone who respects the RPG genre as this is nothing more than a linear, cutesy, puzzle game. You run around playing a little harmonica by pressing certain buttons in certain orders and the rest of the time you are moving boxes around, jumping from platform to platform, and killing enemies (with an awful targeting system) that respawn as soon as you leave the room.I can guarantee that about 95% of all the 4 and 5 star votes are coming from children under the age of 15 as this is the type of game that would appeal to them. But if you are an older, more experienced gamer do yourself a favor and steer clear from this hideous example of a good title gone bad.If you'll excuse me I am going to balance out my wobbly kitcken table with the cartridge."
+12086,1,Heartlessly left in the dark.,"The novel's premise is that Australian poet Christopher Chubb perpetrates a literary hoax; he invents a new persona, Robert McCorkle, and submits pretentious poetry to a novice editor. The editor, who Chubb resents, publishes the work and is humiliated when the hoax is revealed. The reader is in for a bizarre twist when Robert McCorkle appears in the flesh and is a gifted poet.How is this possible? Who is lying, who is insane? Years later, this enigma confronts the narrator, editor of a poetry magazine. The editor has no empathy for the pathetic Chubb or the monstrous McCorkle; she only wants to read McCorkle's damn poetry. Well, good luck! The narrator and reader are both ready for a nervous breakdown at the book's conlusion. We are left to our own conclusions in this strange and unfulfilling story."
+12087,1,"Poor on Functionality, Okay on Looks.","I purchased one of these rear window guards for my 2000 Yukon (new body style) with cargo doors. I was not expecting it to totally keep the rear windows clean, but I hoped it would at least provide an improvement to keeping some dirt/dust/snow/road salt off the windows. After having this now for over (6)-months through summer, fall, and now winter I can say it provides NO IMPROVEMENT whatsoever. My rear windows collect just as much crud as they did without the deflector.It does looks good on the vehicle and blends in nicely with the vehicle lines (it is not a ""bolt-on, after-thought"" look).The hardware supplied with the EGR deflectors is chincy/cheap."
+12088,2,Different kind of fantasy,"As a avid sci-fi/fantasy reader I was unprepared for the imagery evoked by the city the story takes place in. The author certainly can write, images are vivid and lingering, and the characters are believable and well developed.The setting is far from the usual sword and sorcery genre. The denizens of the city have no clear cut lines between good and evil. The city is awash in misery and the characters are all interesting in an unsavaroy and disreputable way.There are times when the story bogs down, but because of the authors writing skill the numerous side trips become a treat. The overall plot is rather simple (basically a hunt for a group of dangerous bats). But because it is narrated with such imaginative eloquence, it was a worthwhile read!"
+12089,1,The Worst !!!,"The worst printer I've ever had, I just used it for 4 months and its broken: I won't keep on buying HP products anymore."
+12090,1,Save Your Money,"The book that these flash cards were based on, ""A Whack on the Side of the Head"" is great book on problem solving and creativity. These cards are not. Save your money or spend it on another book on the topic from another author, such as ""Conceptual Blockbusting - A Guide to Better Ideas""."
+12091,1,He blew it on Page 20!,"While I urged myself on to finish the book, Diamond lost much of his credibility in his prologue. After making impassioned statements against ""racist"" assertions of ethincally based differential intelligence, he goes and says New Guineans are more intelligent than wetern Europeans. I am a south-west Asian ethincally so my reaction to that was not a defensive one. He fell headlong into the trap of guilt-driven Western reverse-prejudice. I can't beleive non of his editors insisted he take that piece out."
+12092,2,Pretty Good Placemat,"This placemat was given to us for my 1 year old. It had little educational value for him since he was so young, but it was really great to protect our table, and it is very easy to clean. It worked great for about 4 months, then it got punctured by our toddler's fork one too many times which let water in, and we had to throw it away."
+12093,2,Fantastic,"Kingston's book is the embodiment of post-modern conscience. As such, her writing is fragmented and at times the plot is unintelligible, obscured by intense imagery and rhetoric. The negative response to her work is thus understandable. However, the importance of Kingston's novel lies in its intensity, in its dense language and imagery, and in its ultimate unintelligibility. The lack of superficial structure and form, and the fragmentation of characters and occurences embody the external and internalized difficulties faced by Kingston's protagonist and the diasporic community as a whole, and likewise exemplifies the problems with and responses to diasporic literature. Overall, while obscure and difficult, Kingston's novel is an important feat (both for readers who complete the novel and for Kingston)."
+12094,1,had to return,"The merchant claimed that it is a match for my Honda Civic Hybrid 2003 but it really is not the case and I had to return this back to Amazon. In fact, there is no way you could install this on my car and I am surprised the merchant claim so. So, disappointed with this merchant for fault claim and so happy with Amazon for taking this item back..."
+12095,2,Battery For Life!,"I owned one other Baby-G watch that lost its battery life prematurely. I bought this watch for sport and casual wear. The band has unusual grayish-olive cast to it and the face readouts are clear. It is set up nicely for modal changes and the buttons are sensitive. But the best part is the long lasting (dare I say infinite?) life of its battery. It is charged by solar light and it saves the charge when put in a dark place. It keeps accurate time by resetting itself via a satellite signal from Colorado. How ""green"", not to mention cool, is that?"
+12096,1,Not much here,"This self-serving memoir relies on unrealistic dialogue created from events forty or more years prior. It is difficult to accept that mob boss Mickey Cohen would share so much of his activities and cronies with a teenage heart throb. Mickey was known as a big spender, and was a Hollywood mainstay, more often in the company of celebrities and politicians. Nothing published before mentions the authors' relationship. Hollywood history buffs and true crime aficionados might pass on this one."
+12097,1,Better than Red Rabbit but not by much,"not very realistic,comic book characters, plot is sketchy,and this book is just the prelude for a sequel. I wont't bore you with the plot; suffice to say the dust jacket is the book. With this book Clancy is continuing to show that he is past his prime and his books are lacking imagination. Wait for the paperback version."

+12100,2,a solid addition to your music rep. . .,"A must own if for no other reason than the song ""Indian Lover""-- Jude put this cd out as a last ditch effort to win over label support by producing a 'sellable' disk. He did. Although a bit too poppy at times for my taste, this is a great addition for those of you who already own ""noone's really beautiful"" Other than Martin Sexton and Ray Lamontagne, there is no better male voice I've found who is still alive and making great music today!!!If you like Ben Folds' ""Rockin the Suburbs"" or Counting Crows ""Hard Candy"" this will be a no brainer to buy"

Recorded with two audience-cameras at both extremes of the stage, so no frontal takes whatsover, grainy and dirty picture and HORRENDOUS sound ( guitar and vox can't be heard, it's all bass and drums) . Steer clear of exploitative releases like this one."
+12103,2,Young Catholics Bible,My 10 year old daughter loves this Bible. I bought it because she was complaining about Sunday school and I wanted to find another way for her to learn more about our catholic faith. We are reading it together and what she likes the most is that it is easy to understand. She loves all the passages and the illustrations.
+12104,2,Truly the Best Album by Kathy! A Must for Everyone!,"This powerful album expands on the sounds of one of music's most gifted and unique voices. Kathy outdoes herself on this album with powerful songs, vocal expansion, and awesome lyrics! The album takes you on a journey unlike any other! This truly is the best album Kathy has ever released!"
+12105,1,Delivery problem,"I did not receive this book. After contacting seller, they supposedly reshipped.It never arrived. Seller did issue a refund."
+12106,2,Worth a second listen,"This was definitely not what I expected, but as an Elvis-phile, I rushed right in and bought it, without realizing what I was getting. I didn't like it on first pass, but having listened to it several more times, I really do like it. If you like the Elvis Costello genre of music, you will like this."
+12107,2,Does what it says on the tin,"Its funky!Although the cover would lead you to believe this is a bona fida Dr John album, in fact its not. Orginally it was released as The Donald Harrison Band with Dr John. Makes no difference though its still great.Tracks 2 to 8 were recorded live at Birdland in 1991 and most of the time the music reeks of New Orleans, but just occasionally some great straight ahead Jazz playing slips in (not surprising as they were playing at Birdland) such as a minute into Iko Iko when Harrison takes a great Jazz Alto Sax solo and there follows a Piano solo that clearly isn't Dr Johns. On Mamzelle Zizi Harrison goes into a Coltrane like solo over a modal vamp. So its a very interesting mix!Its all great stuff and you'll love this if like Dr John and theres plenty of great Alto playing to justify buying this if you're a Jazz nut."
+12108,1,"I cant tell song 1 from 10- Snoozer, Horrible, What a letdown!","I have listened to Pink Floyd probably once a week since 1974. It is in my will they will play DArk side of the Moon at my wake! I cry at times I am so overwhelmed with the music. This album makes me cry for a different reason. It has no life, its old, its boring, its repitious. I feel old having to listen to this. It has no heart, no juice. I literally cant listen to more than 1/2 a song before I change to another CD. The David Gilmour Live Concert DVD. I guess its his and Pink Floyds final hurrah!"
+12109,1,Truly A Dissapointing Game,"When I first played Yu-Gi-Oh!: Forbidden Memories it seemed like a pretty good game. Soon after it started getting boring and the dueling was really horrible. The game could have been much better. It's graphics were horrible to Duelists Of The Roses, and this game got very dull soon. The dueling isn't that fun, and it is so rare to come by magic or trap cards. The starchip thing where you have to get a certain number of them to put in a password of cards are really, really annoying. The best cards like the Red Eyes Black Dragon is for 99999 starchips. Unless you like normal dueling pick this game, otherwise I would stick to Duelists Of The Roses. It might not exactly be dueling, but the graphics and games are a bit more exciting then Forbidden Memories."
+12110,1,The worst Jane Eyre,"I bought this movie after reading the reviews. What I've learned about Amazon reviews: everyone has unique opinions! As far as the physical stuff goes (colors, the look of the characters, mood) I loved. But the actual acting and story, terrible! If I hadn't have known the story, I wouldn't have been able to follow it. It was all mixed up, the acting was bla/boring, and there no chemistry between Jane and Rochester. Any other Jane Ayre adaptation is better than this!"
+12111,2,Just as advertised,"The only thing holding me back from purchasing this product was the price. I have purchased other exercise items and was somewhat skeptical. I decided to buy ""used"" and the ad said it was still in the box, unopened. Sure enough it was and I got it for only $82. The content is excellent and this will no doubt be the best workout series yet!Thanks,Rob"
+12112,1,HOW TO SCARE AN AUDIENCE AWAY IN 5 MINUTES,HOW TO LOSE A GUY IN 10 DAYS (Paramount) should be retitled: How To Scare an Audience Away in Five Minutes. Somehow Kate Hudson and Matthew McConaughey survived this painfully unfunny fable about a couple with opposing hidden agendas. Life is short enough. Don't waste it on bad movies.
+12113,1,you pay for quality,"This is unstable, cheap material, very hard to put together because of its cheap construction...it will only hold the smallest possible microwave. If your kitchen floor is not completely level, shelf always falls out."
+12114,2,"Intense, inspiring story of a victim who becomes a survivor","The first time I read this book I didn't quite understand it. It has a stream of consciousness effect that shows Tish's thoughts over the course of one day.(and human thoughts are very erratic) However, on the second time around most of the fog cleared. Tish had to stand up to her sexually abusive stepfather, not an easy feat. Although one reviewer was correct that Tish didn't show the self-blame or ""my family is normal"" feeling of an abuse victim, most other emotions were realistic. She was afraid at first to confront Tonnie, and she pushed away her friends. Many parts were explicit, like the language and sex descriptions, but you can't expect a book about an abused kid to be a picnic in the park. Overall, this novel profoundly affected me. I reccomend it to older teens, especially rape victims. If it confuses you at first, reread it. It's worth the effort."
+12115,1,Avoid it,"Avoid this album. Every track is medicore at best. Spend your money on something else, as there are far more talented artists out there. 1 album wonder? No wonder why..."
+12116,1,"Great music for kids, poor quality recording","I have no problem with the music in this collection itself. The style is great for kids, and the message is what is important. As far as that goes, I'd give it five stars. The problem I have with this product is the quality of the recording. All the bass is distorted for every song. Don't know if that was intentional or not. I'm a musician, so maybe I pay more attention to that sort of thing than most people, but personally, I think it sounds terrible."
+12117,1,Utter trash,"This book is at approximately the maturity level of a 13 year old. No characterization whatsoever, a story line that has no credibility at all, dialogue that makes a Superman comic book look like literature by comparison, and complete lack of internal logic. Unbelievably poor, puerile, and chauvinistic; not even acceptable as light airplane reading. I rank this book as the worst I've read in several years, even making very large concessions to the fact that it is meant to be escapist entertainment. Forget it."
+12118,1,Limousine prejudices,"Alex de Tocqueville once said that anti-Catholicism was the anti-Semitism of intellectuals.Exhibit A: James Carroll's book. He suppresses evidence, distorts documents, and twists history to paint the Catholic Church in the bleakest light. But such prejudicial history wins plaudits from educated readers who should know better. And they all coo in unison about this excommunicated priest: ""But he's a Catholic who loves his church so much!""Ted Turner loves it."
+12119,2,Heaven is the greatest of V.C. Andrews' books,"This is the one story by V.C. Andrews that I read over and over again. There is something about this story that grabs me and holds me there, no matter how often I read it. I am going to get all of the books in the Casteel and Cutler series."
+12120,2,very funny movie,"ok , im going to start by saying that this movie is great. you see, i love bad movies and bad acting and bad directing and everything about this movie. the actors are the worst, in a good way. i think thats what made me laugh so hard. the gore is great too. people are getting impaled, cut in half by windows, getting buzz saw blades in their heads and much much more! i watched this again last night with a friend and he thought that it was the worst movies he ever has seen. but i loved it. also, for the guy that wrote the other review, i belive that his name is ""steve miller"", he said that it doesnt explain why the old lady kills every one in the house. it does bob broke her tombstone. when he did that she woke up. one more fun fact iis that one of my band has a song about this movie called ""dead dudes in the house""."
+12121,2,good product,"Perfect for my drawer. Only one problem - the vertical space wasn't long enough for my butter knives. Had to use the horizontal space. Other than that, sturdy and good looking."

+12123,1,Danielle Steel needs editors who work,"In The Ranch, Danielle Steel again proves that she can somehow get away with selling millions of copies when her grammar is horrendous. Please, Danielle Steel's editors, don't assume that we are stupid - either edit her books or enroll her in a community college course in basic English Grammar. Thank you."
+12124,2,Enthralling,"My son and I started reading parts of this in the car on a trip. We are both aficionados of anything mythological, and encountering these profound, rich, and unusual stories has been inspiring to both of us (but probably most inspiring to my son). The stories we have read so far are presented both as myths, but also as possibilities, expanding the idea of what might have been and what might be, offering also a window of insight into the times in which the myths were captured. The myths are largely framed within the context of the Christian and Roman Catholic Church and culture, and do reveal some of the bias of the times against the Jews and Judaic faith. While not politically correct, this is a solid well-written work with much education potential, if placed in context and not read as a sole work on the topic. One of the best free books I've gotten for the Kindle!"
+12125,2,Exactly what the title says--MAGIC!!!!,"I am a long time fan of Kristin Hannah's. I've read everything she's written and unlike some multi-published authors, Hannah just gets better and better with each book she writes. And MAGIC HOUR is no exception. The title says it all---this book is pure MAGIC!! I don't like to read reviews that give away the plot and so I'm not going to comment on that except to say that this story blew me away. It was everything I'd come to expect (and love) from a Hannah novel--true emotion, deep characters--but it was also a story line so unique and fresh, I could not put the book down. If you've never read Kristin Hannah give yourself a huge treat with Magic Hour. And, if you're a Hannah fan like me, I'm sure you've already pre-ordered the book!! Another winner from an extremely talented writer."
+12126,2,With a Little Help From Her Friends.,"Diane Schuur has a great voice and with this GRP digital master, this collection of tracks sounds quite good. However, for some reason, the music sounds better mastered than the voice here. No doubting the quality of the track selections but perhaps it's time to look at remastering this to improve the voice levels. Some tracks, especially the earlier ones have lower volume levels than the later tracks. Still, if you are not too bothered about the sound quality, this is actually a very good place to find a representative sample of Ms. Schuur's work. Very refreshing and soothing, her voice is uniquely and distinctly hers. Here she is also joined by a litany of jazz greats like Stan Getz, Jose Feliciano, Dave Grusin and many others. Recommended but you may want to wait and see if a remastered version of this comes out soon."
+12127,2,Love it,"I did a very thorough search of crib mobiles and their capabilities before I bought this one. I am very pleased with the results of this one. The mobile itself has 3 volume settings options (no sound, quiet, or louder), several music options in addition to a ""rainforest"" sound of birds chirping, owls hooting, and crickets making noise (my favorite setting, as it seems to sooth my 3 month old to sleep quickly), an option to have the night light on or off, and various combination options (i.e., light or no light with sound or no sound). The rainforest characters are very colorful and, in addition to the leaves going up and down, the orbital movements of the characters makes my daughter very fascinated. This mobile really started getting the quiet, peaceful attention of my daughter when she was 8 weeks old. Now at 13 weeks old, the mobile still gets used daily as she transitions off to sleep."
+12128,2,Great bottle opener,"This works so much better that the manual opener I used to have,and the rechargeable battery is great also."
+12129,1,poorly built breaks easy,"It's got great capacity, the USB 3.0 version has great speed, but don't touch it. It's extremely easy to bend off the USB plug, ruining the product. Dropping your laptop will do it. Get one that's full metal, patriot makes some good ones."
+12130,2,Amazing,"I read this book in a couple of days because I couldnt put the book down. I first bought the book because I'm of french heritage so it was very interesting to see the french prospective of what happened during WWII. It had excellent character development and I loved the fact that there were many little stories that weaved themselves together in the second half of the book. It's a real shame that the book couldnt have been finished with the other 3 planned installments of the novel, but you could imagine how it turned out."
+12131,2,Wonderful movie! Don't forget to watch Special Features too!!,"It's hard to pinpoint what I loved best about this movie - it was all so well done! The acting, the storyline, the photography, the soundtrack, the overall message...it was all superb! Movies about actual events are the BEST!! I think audiences crave this - learning how other people react to tragic and heartbreaking events in their lives. We can all draw something out of this girl's story that we can apply to our own lives and attitudes about our future. The amazing scenery of Hawaii and the awesome surfing work to make this movie so engaging. The DVD has a ton of Special Features!! Check them out!"
+12132,1,"Beautiful on the outstide, HORRENDOUS in the inside!","I wanted to buy this for my daughter. I wanted to combine a traditional record book with fill-ins with my new scrapbooking hobby. The outside is precious, but once you open it, the pages are like a black and white newspaper material, and they have no structure what so ever. The pages are boring and don't look very durable."

+12134,1,Disappointing,"As others have said, this book started off so strongly that I thought I was in for another ""DaVinci Code"". Instead, it got itself caught up in a lot of the same old tired cliches you expect from a bad action movie. There's the obsessed scholar, the haunted male hero who doesn't open up to anyone, the villain seeking revenge and a conspiracy to protect old secrets. It didn't bother me until about halfway through, when the book just went on some unbelievable paths. The ending especially was disappointing, as it was your typical BS Hollywood ending with people coming back from the dead, sudden changes of heart and everyone living happily ever after. Note to the author: it's a very bad sign when I start rooting for the ""heroes"" to fail to escape from a perilous situation. It only avoids one star because the scenes that take place in the middle ages were well done, and there is a nice little twist right at the end that I enjoyed. Otherwise, a largely forgettable book."
+12135,2,Stove covers,"Fast delivery. I have looked all over for black stove covers. I am glad I found theses. I bought 2 set, incase someone forgets to remove them before turning the stove on again . They are really nice shinny well made covers ."
+12136,2,Incredible,"An absolute pageturner. A story of leadership, courage, determination and incrdible seamanship makes this a must read.When one thinks that this entire aventure took place 85 years ago, it becomes even more apparent just what a feat it was.One of the best reads I've come across in a long time."
+12137,2,I happened to like the book!,"I noticed that quite a number of people were complaining about the quality of The Butlerian Jihad. Many are saying that it can't hold a candle to the original books. My response to that is at least the damn thing is readable! I've read the first four Dune books and the characters are severely two dimentional. The futuristic babbling is to Dune what technobabble is to Star Trek. At least Star Trek uses it effectively. They've never had a whole episode dedicated to it. While reading the Dune series I couldn't have cared less about any of the characters! I have no idea why people have declaired this one of the greatest sci-fi series ever. I find the Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Andersen novels more rich and alive than any of the original Dune novels. If you want a good read, I recommend The Butlerian Jihad."
+12138,1,Close but just a deep fly...,"While 2K5 revamps the baseball genre a bit with flashy graphics and new components it falls short in a nmuber of areas. And when compared to EA's MVP 2005 it is even worse. 2K5 employs stunning graphics but thats about it. The pitchers all seem to have the same ""stuff"" where Jason Schmidt's 99 MPH fastball acts looks and is basically the same as Kirk Rueter's. Whereas the outfield arms of Vladimir Guerrero and any other player are the same. The hits seem to follow a familiar patter of animation and action and it all gets kind of old. The smash zone is ludicris and should be relegated to such games as Slugfest or MLB Street if it existed. All in all MLB 2k5 is just average, the simulation core is weak and the overall style just falls short. But for 20$ it's not a bad buy."
+12139,2,This is the best flavor,"Just got my package and I am thrilled. This has the best flavor of all the Tabasco products, except for the Original. Thanks People."
+12140,1,Oh please...,"A few good ideas that would be obvious to most people with a pulse. I think if it would have so much better if the author had focused on 202 really interesting things to do on dates. Instead it's just a list of things that anyone could do, on a date or not. (Frankly, some of these ideas should not be trotted out early in the dating cycle... ""talk about what you think about death...???"") This isn't a book - it's the result of a brainstorm session without an editor.If you want to break out of a rut, I'd suggest picking up a local alternative weekly or newspaper's Friday section and cruising through the stuff to do section. Or peruse the list of classes to a nearby Learning Annex or community college or even thumbing through the yellow pages under 'instruction,' 'restaurants' and so on, you'll find enough ideas to get you going.If my husband and I ever get to the point that we have to refer to this book, it's probably time for marital counseling."
+12141,2,Much more than a cook book!,"The Mediterranean Diet does include some recipes. However, the main goal of the book is to present the simplicity of this style of eating. The concept is not new. It's the kind of cooking my grandmothers' did. However, after years of reading stuff in magazines about avoiding carbs, oils, etc., The Mediterranean Diet is like a reintroduction to the classic way of healthy cooking and eating.A close friend just had heart surgery, and was advised by both the surgeon and dietician to follow The Mediterranean Diet! If you are looking for a good introduction into this style of food preparation, this book is a very good choice!"
+12142,2,Oasis are generally good.,"Really, it is hard to go wrong with an Oasis record. They always have some good lyrics hovering over some good rock music. To me, none of their albums, with maybe the exception of ""What's the Story"" are really totally great and timeless, but overall, it is good rock music."
+12143,2,Great quality!,"This is a wonderful notebook. Great quality paper and binding. The lines on the paper are a bit light, but I like that about it. This is now the 2nd one I have bought because I enjoy them so much."
+12144,2,Makes Mac OS X Safe for the Rest of Us,"At last, a book that's taken away the fear of Mac OS X. Mr. Steinberg's newest book not only tells you how to get the most out of your Mac hardware, he shows you how to make Mac OS X 10.1 play nicely. I was pleased to discover a way to do a clean install of Mac OS X without erasing my drive (something Apple has yet to figure out) and a handy terminal tip that helped me empty the trash when I started getting messages that it was ""in use."" I highly recommend this book."
+12145,1,A Performance Which Would Make Gilbert Roll In His Grave,"It was difficult for me to enjoy this production for a few reasons.1. The actors' performances were not convincing at all. They seemed constantly conscious that they were performing a show, rather than interacting with each other. Most of the actors didn't seem to suit their roles. They exaggerated the wrong characteristics. The women whined too much.2. The updated lyrics bothered me, especially since they had Canadian references which I as an American could not enjoy. Even if I had understood the references, the delivery of them was poor.3. The sets really bothered me. Too much left to the imagination.In short, I disliked this performance."
+12146,2,excellent read,"The book's an excellent read for both the layman and the science student. It successfully combines historical detail with contemporary implications of Drosophila research. Written in a breezy colloquial manner, it never gets boring while sacrificing only little of the scientific content. The author does abuse the fly sex theme, often resorting to it with specious warrant. The other shortcoming of the book has to do with its physical quality, which is horrible. Seedy five-buck pocket-size thrillers are printed on paper of incomparably higher quality. Judged on the content, though - a well-written, informative, and entertaining book."
+12147,2,Spectacular for learning advanced mathematics,"This is a tremendous book for those of us who struggle with mathematics. It makes complex topics feel like a simple string of easy steps. This book is also a great reference; mine is severely dog-eared and has tabs at all the sections that I use often. My friends who are (in my opinion) expert mathematicians don't care for this book as much as I do, but for the ""expert novice"" like myself, I find this book invaluable.One of the topics in this book that I find very useful is the numerical methods section. Excellent for a reference when reading and reviewing numerical data or when generating simple code."
+12148,2,WONDERFUL,I have been unable to find this Simple Lunch Box anywhere and I have been looking for one to replace the one I had! The ones I have seen are too big or too small for the containers I put in it to carry my lunch.THIS WAS PERFECT!!! And I was so happy with the color I choose!!!LOVE IT!!!
+12149,2,Very Good Organic Saltine Crackers But Too Crumbly,"These saltine crackers taste very good but they are so crumbly that as soon as you take a bite, you end up with crumbs all over the place. I like the idea that they are organic and use healthy olive oil, but they would be more nutritious if they contained whole wheat flour instead of just wheat flour.Also, I would prefer if they cut down the amount of packages per box, so that I'm not opening a cellophane package for every 4 double-crackers I eat or serve."
+12150,1,come to your senses,"1) There is no such word as ""ufology"" nor could there ever be. Only someone with the most execrable taste and no understandingof language or logic whatsoever could proffer such a monstrosity.2) ""U.F.O"" stands for ""Unidentified Flying Object"". Do U.F.O.'s exist? Until the flying objects in question are identified, of course. There is no mystery here. (A large percentage turn out not to be flying objects at all, so it might have been better to call them ""unidentified sky phenomena"", but at this point we're pretty much stuck with ""unidentified flying objects"". Oh, well.)"
+12151,1,historia amarga,"Antes que nada decir que de las hermanas bronte el único que me gustó fue Jane Eyre a pesar de ser muy triste la historia, pero este... Primero, creo que está influido por la corriente realista de papá goriot y esos libros de temática trágica como si la realidad fuera solo penuria y tragedia.Segundo, las Bronte, Emily, Charlotte, escribÃan muy bien, pero Cumbres borrascosas te deja un sabor amargo en la boca, un mensaje francamente negativo y es una pena, no lo considero novela romántica. SErá un clásico bien escrito y demás pero no es un libro que volverÃa a leer jamás ni lo recomiendo para nada."

+12153,1,2 Strikes Is Enough,"I must add my voice to the poor reviews for this product. I also experienced trouble with this unit, striking out twice. The first probe that I had did not work from the beginning. During the first use out of the box, despite my being very careful to set it up properly and use it carefully, the readout on the digital display changed to ""HHH"". No matter what I tried it wouldn't reset to read a temperature. I returned the unit to Amazon and received a replacement. I was again very careful setting up the replacement probe and the probe worked at room temperature. However, as soon as I started using the unit and it raised above room temperature it started reading high, then showing random temperatures, then again changed to ""HHH"". Even when I let it return to room temperature it remained on ""HHH"". This item is not reliable and I don't recommend anyone purchase it."
+12154,1,Think about spending a little more money,"Mine worked for 2 minutes after first receiving it, then it never worked again, so I returned it. The stylus is like a plastic tooth pick and I think this company was being just a little too ambitious thinking they could make an organizer this small and make it reliable. I decided to spend more money to buy a real PDA and splurged on the Handspring Visor Platinum. You might want to consider the same move."
+12155,2,Sophisticated. Smart. Sexy.,"At turns hilarious and heart breaking. This book is a brutally honest social satire that had me laughing a lot. I loved the heroine, Maria and found myself drawn to her plight. She's pushing 40 and still single and hears the clanging of her biological clock. For a time she is willing to believe that Harris, a man she doesn't really like all that much, is the one for her. I loved the writing. Quick paced book in diary format but it didn't feel stilted like so many diaries do.I couldn't put it down until I finished.Great debut."
+12156,1,Like reading a bad Movie,"My least Favorite Cricton book (except maybe Congo). Too much roller-coaster action for Medieval France, much of it was uneeded and detracted from the story. I prefer a character-driven story. I enjoyed the events in Modern times much more than the past stuff. The science was interesting.I guess he envisioned Spielberg Directing this ""Movie"" in the manner of ""Back to the Future 2"" or ""Indiana Jones 2"". I see roles for Leonardo DiCapprio's and maybe Arnold. I was hoping to read a book."
+12157,2,Shows how strong friendships can be!,"The Broken Hearts Club is a black comedy about a group of single gay men trying to find love and happines in the world. The chracters are warm and funny adn can easily be compared to yourself. As each of these characters broken up or single the other friends are there for him. When one of the characters begins to drugs and has a DO, they all come to the hospital to support him. This is not a movie with sex and nudity at all. Its a story of friend ship and being there for each other."
+12158,2,Happy Holidays,My 6 yr old daughter loves this movie. It teaches a great lesson on what the holidays are really about and shows how even if your little you can make a difference. I love the songs in the movie! Great holiday gift for your little princess.
+12159,2,Teen Titans,"My Oppinion: This is one of the best superhero team tv showes out there it has spunk, comedy, action and loveable characters my favorite Titan is Beast Boy, whats yours? This show rocks and the first season is awesome.About The Show: The Ten Titans are a group of teenage superheros which includ Robin, Raven, Cyborg, Beast boy & Starfire. The show is a spinoff of the late 7o's 80's comic book with a new look and attitude. The Titans fight their most frearsome foes including the ruthless slade who is The Titans arch nemises.Don't forget to check out season 2 & 3 on dvd and also the Teen Titans Movie Trouble in Tokyo and other Titan films."
+12160,2,"Wonderfull sleepy music, buy it to keep for a life time",I find that I keep going back to this music every time I need to wind down. I can not get the melodies out of the back of my head. I hear them when I need to find peace. My only problem is that I have come to associate this album with dozing off. Not a good thing when each track is beautiful. I find I have a hard time getting through the 3rd track without my eyes closing and the warm sounds taking me away.
+12161,2,Great Product,"Fill'er up and light the newspaper at the bottom and 15 min. later the charcoal was ready to go, just one recomendation: place an equal amount of charcoal on your grill before you pour in the lit charcoal, thats if you have a large grill 18"" or larger."
+12162,1,"Great Imagery, Very Lacking Stories","While the images used in this book are fantastic, very well drawn and the color is exquisite, that's where the book ends.The fables themselves are short-winded versions, very poorly written in my opinion. I bought the book to read to my five year old, who is definitely able to comprehend intricate stories and is extremely well-spoken for his age, but the stories offered nothing for either of us... they had no lead ins , often went straight to the point (most of the stories are only one or two short paragraphs), and only one or two even mentioned the moral of the story (which is often lost due to large parts of the fables being cut out).I ended up just telling him the versions of the stories I remembered while he looked at the pictures. Definitely not a good choice."
+12163,2,The best razor ever!,"This is the BEST shaving product Ive ever used! It is lightweight and compact, easy to grip and maneuver, handles bumps, curves, and edges flawlessly, has no problem with tight or awkward spots, holds a charge for weeks, and, most importantly, gives a silky smooth shave, wet or dry, every time! Ive been using this product for over 5 (or is it more?) years now, and couldnt be happier with it.Ive used it on daily stubble and 1/2 + inch growth, wet and dry, with the same flawless results. I'm Eastern European so I'm no fine-haired frauline (however you spell that) either. I also use it on my more sensitive and delicate areas- and that is where it REALLY outshines all other razors! It took well over a year (and alot of abuse) before my first Moi for Me razor dulled and the foil needed to be replaced.I've bought this razor 3 times now, thats how much I like it! (one was lost, one was stolen)"
+12164,2,The dinos are worth the trip,"Yea, yea, the actors are awful. But the dinosaurs totally outdo all of that, and you forget that the people are fakey. The plot is fine. Everything makes sense. And the T-rex is great, as are the raptors. This is where the big dinosaur adventure begins. If you're interested in it, watch it. If not, don't."
+12165,2,Please put this out!,I have almost worn out all of my VHS tapes from the original series. Please put this out on DVD. It will make my year!jackie
+12166,2,Great book!!!! My 21 month old son is obsessed.,"Great book!!!! My 21 month old son is obsessed. He wants to read it everyday, and randomly shouts out lines from the book & then starts cracking up hysterically (prowling, scowling, howling!). The story gives tons of opporutnity to get creative and have fun. love - so cute to see how happy it makes him. Would definately recommend this book as a must have"
+12167,1,HORRIBLE!,"So after years of being told how great this book was, I finally borrowed it from a friend. Big mistake!!! This has to be one of, if not THE worst book I've ever read. When I was done, I scratched my head thinking, this cannot be the same book everyone raved about. I wanted to throw it down after just a few chapters but kept reading thinking it would get better... it didn't. There was no growth at all in Winter; she was the same dummy from beginning to the end. I made myself finish, thinking it would get better but it never did. I was left wondering if I actually read the wrong book. I even went back to 3 different people that told me this book was 'excellent' and asked what they thought was excellent about it... blank stares; no one really could answer. They had all read the book 10yrs ago and couldn't remember anything about it. I would suggest re-reading this book now that they're all over 30 and rate it again, but in my opinion, that would just be plain torture."
+12168,2,Amusing Handbook to Desert Dish,"Expensive for a softcover book with only B&W; stock photos, but still a fun resource guide for Desert afficianadoes. Not-too-dishy gossip about some of the celebs and celeb wannabe's who have had residency in Palm Springs, California...both past and present.Author Johns obviously had some fun researching and writing this prosaic ""Map to the Stars Homes"" manual. Especially fun if you are a frequent visitor to the area or are planning a vacation there."
+12169,1,Grossly Mis-Titled,"This CD has songs on it which attempt to imitate Madonna, the Bee Gees, the Doobie Brothers, etc. The problem is that not a single track on it is in what I would call a Cha Cha rhythm. Perhaps in the rarified atmosphere of ballroom dancing dancers might be able to do a Cha Cha step to these tracks, but if you're looking for something that sounds like an update of Perez Prado, Edmundo Ros, or Xavier Cugat, as I was, then you will be grossly disappointed with this title. In addition, the ""orchestra"" is electronic throughout. I'm glad I didn't pay a lot for this because I'm throwing it out."
+12170,2,Perfect purchase,"Transaction was flawless, product is exceptional.I would do business with this firm again."
+12171,2,THIS CD IS THA BOMB!! JERRY SEINFELD IS THE BEST,I love the show Seinfeld and when I heard this cd it was like Seinfeld was coming out of my boombox. If you like the show you're gonna love this. Keep it up Jerry.
+12172,2,"Fast and smooth, this book has a lot of flash, but some holes need patching.","This book is defintiely Brown's freshmen attempt at writing a novel, as no more apparent than several points of lazy character and plot development in the book (ala David Becker in Seville magically sumbling upon Meagan). However, it drew me into the story like no other author has done in quite a while, and I can not wait to read his next few attempts"
+12173,2,One of his favorites,Push motor has lasted all year with this one. Has taken him from a sitter to a runner and still one of his top toys. The motor can be loud - especially because he holds onto it and doesn't let it get away from him after pushing it across the floor. He likes the sounds and the way it just goes. I like the way it operates on just his energy and the was he seems to really use his imagination with this truck.
+12174,1,Absolutely Nothing,Nothing happens? Absolutely nothing! 680 pages and the characters do nothing. Oh wait...you do get a bunch of tertiary new characters who do nothing but confuse. Jordan has said on NUMEROUS occasions he knows what the last scene is in this series. I begin to believe he doesn't know how to get there.
+12175,1,Never got my package,I have been waiting for a little over a month for this DVD and I still have no word on its whereabouts. I am not satisfied and will not be ordering any DVD from here again.
+12176,1,Terrible,I really do not know what this product is good for. It looked great and I thought I can use it to massage my back.But the handle is so flimsy that I thought it would break if I pressed it against my back. Also the balls on it are so ruff that you can not use it rub on your muscles.
+12177,2,A Fine Soundtrack,"I for one love soundtracks that you can listen too comfortably from first to last song, and which can be stand alone songs as well. This is one of those soundtracks! It certainly captures the moods and themes of the film: adventure, intrigue, and the more obvious themes when dealing with the Titanic of loss and hubris. McNeely and company have capture the entire spectrum for this underwater saga. I found the piano pieces, particularly ""The Grand Staircase"" and ""I...I Had To Go"" were quite stirring. They are simple piano pieces, yet the elegance and sense of loss is well captured. They are very nice to play on the piano yourself as well! You'll definitely want to pick up this soundtrack!"
+12178,1,not real 3d,"This is in side by side format,and does not work with any of the 3d options for viewing 3d on my Samsund 3d tv that will even convert regular tv into 3d tv. Do not buy this and expect 3d viewing capability."
+12179,1,WOULD NOT WORK,from some other country. Out of my ZONE????? Remember these days to see what ZONE OR COUNTRY it plays in.
+12180,1,Not my kind of history book.,"History books should be engrossing, thought provoking and colorful This book is dull and boring from the minute you open the front cover. I truly hope this is no longer assigned to any students anywhere."
+12181,1,psyco-cybernetics,not nearly as in depth as the book. much preferred the book. wouldn't recommend it to someone just being introduced to the concept.
+12182,2,Great family film,"Another instant hit with the family. Great story, excellent message and very fun, heartwarming and wholesome entertainment. Wish all the Wonderful World of Disney films were available for purchase."
+12183,2,Best racing game ever!!!!!!,"Hey you who said theres a fool born every minute this game happens to be awesome! I love games where you get to go everywhere in the city so this games for me. I love the music. Too bad you can't keep the car you start out in but if you unlock all the extras you can build an even better car! My only complaint is so far i haven't been unlock any of the other sections of the city, and you don't get to drive a diablo or murcilago.Pros- excellent graphics,get to explore,Hit music.Cons-none so far"

+12186,2,poor quality control or wrong part #,"We have an 03 Forest River Wildcat. These covers fit perfectly EXCEPT my husband had to drill out the rivets and turn the lift track around 180 degrees, then they worked fine. He said the quality of these lids and lift track is FAR superior to the factory or standard lids and we expect them to last for years. Based on the description at Amazon and the reviews I ordered the correct lid, so were the lift tracks installed backwards or is this the wrong lid????? hmmmmm"
+12187,2,Great Album!,"I really like this WP album. It's probably my favorite one, and as a fairly new WP fan, I urge new WP fans to get this one."
+12188,1,A waste of money.,"I just bought one of these cards for my parents so I could upgrade their computer. I knew ATI cards where the primary video decive that the Windows Operating Systems were made on so I figured they would be the most compatible. HAH! I guesed wrong! After installing everything on the ""easy installation CD"" I restarted and then saw that the drivers haden't even been installed! I looked for the drivers on the CD. None. They reccomended on their website that you dont use the CD and download drivers from their achive. After being lost in the achive I finnaly found the drivers. Installed them and it worked. I tryed Quake III Arena on their 600mhz PIII and it was slower than HECK! I tore it out and returned it immediatly! My parents now have an outstanding TnT 2 Ultra made by the great nVidia. DO Not buy this card."
+12189,1,No Ring of Fire?,"This is a great movie with an excellent soundtrack. After six years of searching I still cannot find the Carnes / Bridges duet anywhere. I would have purchased the soundtrack if ""Ring of Fire"" was included, as I'm sure many would have. My one star is for that reason alone. The movie however is a five star at least."
+12190,2,Great for dogs and cats,I love this product. I am amazed at the amount of fur I am able to get off of the cats and dogs.I originally bought this to get mats off of a feral kitty...it does not work good for that.I have used it on all of my pets and they have beautiful coats. Well worth the money.
+12191,2,Recovery journey for those with unresolved pain inside - must read,It's difficult to list all questions Rich Buhler raises and addresses in this one book. Here are a few just to touch the base. They can be important for you or for somebody you know/love/care of. Have you ever overreacted to something and later were surprised why people were shocked with your behavior ? Why some people are so closed emotionally ? Why it's so difficult to build relations or growing relations always got stuck at some point ? Why what happens outside is usually very different of what happens inside ? Why some of us tend to avoid any risk at all or are ready to put at stake everything without any wisdom applied ? What are the important questions to ask yourself even if you think you had perfect parents and perfect childhood ? Reading and applying truths from this book can be a great journey towards recovery and resolving the most complicated challenges of person's life.
+12192,1,Ugh... tree hugging book,"Man, I can't stand this book any longer. The tree-hugging nature of the book is driving me crazy.Do yourself us all a favor, Quinn - unwrap your arms from the tree and get your head out of your rear-end.We're at war with the world? Please."
+12193,2,Buy IT !!,"That's all you need to do , don't listen to the imbeciles that rate this low , as they are not even worth reading , every song here is a rock staple EVERY one , It's part of the musical landscape that even people who have no clue on rock/metal know this album . 25 years after it's release and it still sherds any new band's output . Back in Black is rock and roll the way it's meant to be Tough as nails ."
+12194,2,Easy science experiments,"The experiments in this book are easy to do, almost everything can be easily found, and they catch the interest of children. I intend to use this to both supplement my granddaughter's science curriculum and for fun during vacations."
+12195,2,A different venue for Gordianus and family..,A nice lifestyle change for Gordianus with the coming of ago of his sons...and the intrigue of drawing him back to Rome...it has modern overtones..of sea change in ancient Rome
+12196,1,A Bad Joke,"It takes over half of the book to get to the plot, a criminal who passes away after telling his family that he was a war hero during WW II, and it turns out that he wasn't when the family tries for a military burial, the lead character Private Eye Kinsey Millhone is not the sharpest tack in the box, at least 60% of the writing is vivid descriptions of room decor, scenery and includes the foaming soap bubbles in a sink of dishwater, and if she mentions her underpants once she mentions them 40 times, the ending was too rushed and very unsatisfactory. This was my first Grafton book, I may go try one of the earlier ones as I can't believe an author this popular writes this style of trivial drivel. Skip L is for a Loser."
+12197,1,Incomprehensible Book,This is supposed to be a contemporary translation that uses language relevant to our time and culture. It seems to me that the author must be using some sort of inner city street lingo that leaves out normal English-speaking people. I could not recognize Thomas a Kempis in this translation at all. I found it to be unreadable.
+12198,1,Worked Great for a While,"I was thrilled with this product when I purchased it in March 2008. I weigh 155 lbs or so, and the scale has been gently used. Now in August 2008 it quit working. I changed the batteries (thin lithium batteries that cost $7 for the pair). The scale worked the first time after replacing the batteries, then gave a dead screen. Now the only way I can get it to ""wake up"" is to remove and re-install a battery each time I want to use it. Most recently I can't get it to zero out even when the display is working."
+12199,2,On a wing and a prayer,"No, Phoebe Cates, cute as she is, is not the angel. This time Emmanuelle Beart is the angel.The story is one of those strait forward situation comedies. As in ""Heaven Can Wait"" or more like ""Meet Joe black"", an angle on a mission is detoured when a satellite nicks her wing. She lands in a pool of a soon to be married musician (Jim). You know musicians; he is obligated to help the angle, yet he can not tell his fiancée (Patty), who of course suspects there is another woman. Naturally his friends find out and plan to get rich. And so on and so on.Eventually the angle that by this time is enamored with Jim and vice versa is well and leaves. Patty who has been insulted and assaulted by Jim and the angle leaves also. To top it off maybe there was no angle. Seems Jim has a brain tumor. So how did everyone get in this situation and what is to become of Jim?The Heavenly Kid"
+12200,1,"Want to Puke Every Time I hear ""Grey's Anatomy""","All you [guys] who have never heard of ""Grey's Anatomy"" or watched it, like yours truly, make sure that you're ready for the cheesiest crap the mankind has ever seen. This was a gift for my wife; oh boy did I make a mistake. For those out there who think that waterboarding is torture I say try watching this pathetic crap. Let's drop the waterboarding and make all those suspects watch this show just fifteen minutes at time, they'll give it all up, no problem, only not to watch this nonsense. God, every time I see or hear words ""Grey's Anatomy"" I just want to gauge my own eyes out. Before I was forced to watch the whole fifteen minutes of this crap I have had little bit of respect for that douchebag Patrick Dempsey, but having seen him in this sleazy soap I made a commitment never to watch anything that has his name on it or is in any way associated to him or any of those other [D list] losers in the show."
+12201,1,Casio Warranty Repairs,"I purchased the AQ160W-1BV as my first Casio to see how the watched performed. I really liked the features and look but after 6 months I noticed one of the buttons was missing. I guessed it would not be problem so I returned the watch with the receipt, but was informed the Warranty only covered the watch works and the buttons are considered part of the case. For only $40 they would be happy to fix the watch and send it back. This was my first and LAST Casio!Timex would fix any watch I have ever owned without questions so I will purchase a replacement from Timex. I am only glad the Casio was inexpensive so the loss was a learning experience that I will make sure everyone understands."
+12202,1,Don't waste your money.,"The only reason I even decided to get this DVD was because I found it (...) at Frys, and I came online to check out the reviews and everyone said it was worth getting. Well, it's not. The fact that Godsmack and Playboy ended up on the same DVD, and that there is no nudity whatsoever is pathetic. If I'm not mistaken, this movie was taken directly from a TV special. It's a really disappointing DVD. You don't really get much from watching the band, nor do you get anything from watching the playmates. Often times they tease you by describing something really naughty that the playmates had done (which they had taped), and they totally ruin it by showing you absolutely NOTHING. The ONLY thing that would have made this DVD even worth buying would have been the entire collection of music videos. Instead, they give you two (Voodoo and Straight Out of Line). This is really just 45 minutes of pure crap. Don't waste your money."
+12203,1,Rio800 - Digital Thievery,I bought a Rio 800 in February and have used it seldom because it is junk. It has never worked well and the manufacturer couldn't care less. It discharges randomly then charges partially and at its best can't be used for more than an hour. The display is even more frustrating since it is impossible to see - it's sort of grey on blue and navigation is a trial. Please don't subject yourself to unwanted pain. Buy a different product.
+12204,2,A Great Classic to Share,A wonderful series in lovely packaging! I loved these stories as a child and I am so excited to share them with a friend for Christmas this year.
+12205,1,Unoriginal,"I really found this album unoriginal. I've read the artist admires Alanis Morissette and this album sounds as if Alanis had made a bad spanish record. It's evident in the singer's style that Alanis is an inspiration, but Shakira comes across as attempting to be Alanis Morissette. Hopefully the artist will learn from this mistake and evolve a distinctive style of her own. Coming from a country as rich in music as Colombia is, this album was a let down."
+12206,1,Oh Wow...Spoilers!!!!,"I hate the hero. What kind of man is he that he can put them all through the crap he did for 3 years and not ask for proof, DNA testing, against his own claims? I also have no idea if he cheated on her during the 3 years. He said he tried to be with other women and then the whole episode where his dad tells the heroine that he visits his new woman twice a week, which we find out who she is, so it is not her. If she is the only one we are going by, then did he sleep around? I cannot stand heroes that do that. The heroine was supposed to have grown a backbone but I never saw it. While her child was missing, she still let him run over her. Also, he should have had to grovel and beg for at least weeks or months, not find out the truth, leave because he could not handle it, and come back and be forgiven. Really??? I strongly disliked this story."
+12207,2,Great Replacement,I have an older Waterpik model WP-20W. My last jet tip broke last month and I looked everywhere for the replacement. I found that this model had been discontinued years ago and Waterpik no longer stocked the jet tips. The WP-20W works like new & I hated to throw it away for lack of jet tips. I was thrilled to have found these replacements on Amazon and they work great with no problems. Plus they will extend my use of my Waterpik for several years.
+12208,1,Misleading!,"I was also mislead. ""Triple Pack"" obviously means 3 in a pack and ""3 ea"" leads you to believe you are purchasing 3 TRIPLE PACKS (9 rolls) for $9.99, not $3.33 per roll...who in their right mind would pay $3.33 for a low quality roll of paper towels?? We're trying to SAVE money now throw it away."
+12209,1,Works great then not,I have purchased two of these in the past five years and when they work they work great. The first one I purchased worked for about four years the second one only lasted three months
+12210,1,Fits but not perfect,"I purchased this product to fit my Penguin Bio Wheel 200. As the details say, it fits. However, it is not like the original part: the magnet is much shorter. As such, it does not move as much water. I now have to purchase the correct part from somewhere else.Two stars because the description is not wrong but no more than two stars because the description is misleading."
+12211,2,This book is very accurate,"This book is causing a great hubub in Welsh Pagan circles only because it has been mentioned by pagans who want to be known as the be all of Welsh Paganism. They don't want a yank to be known as a Welsh Witch, so they have inlisted the help of neo-wales extremists who invent e-mail addresses and keep trashing the author. Not the book mind you. They have never read the book. They can't spell and sound more like school children than adults.The book is great. The book is true. And how would I know? Because until last week I was loosely associated with this bonkers group. They have become nasty and obsessed and totally bonkers.'The book is Great. The author is honest. The time is right."
+12212,2,good value,this is a pretty decent survival/ tactical blade i really like the blade retension on it. I have it mollied to a edc pack take it in the truck with me everywhere i go!
+12213,2,Effective and cheap,"Compare it to other magnetic holders and it's about the same. The price is in the lower margin and I liked it. The hold is strong and you really don't have too much trouble setting it up. It looks sexy. The only complaint is that the edge of the magnet is not shear--it sticks out a little, and has knicked up two of my knives by sliding them off as opposed to pulling them off. Watch out!"
+12214,2,movie seems to be a setup for more movies,"Movie is mostly about cadets. Master Chief does not appear until about the last 15 min.My wife, who did not have a clue about Halo, thought it ended too soon and wanted to see more.I can forgive only if the next movie is more action/adventure."
+12215,1,Surprisingly boring...,"I was quite excited to dig into this novel, as it was my first experience with Asimov's work. And it will most likely be my last.The overall plot and storyline is actually decent, but the extremely slow progression of events and sheer amount of dialog makes for a very dull read. I agree very much with some of the previous reviews in that Asimov seems to beat several dead horses over and over again: yes, Marlene is not pretty. Yes, we know she knows Erythro won't hurt her. yes, we know Siever doesn't hide anything from her. Yadda yadda yadda. Get on with it."
+12216,2,a fascinating medieval life recreation,"This is the best book I have purchased on this site so far. It has in plenty what I appreciate most in historical novels - realism of depicting. The epoch - violent and passionate - comes to life so that you will be re-reading this book to savour every detail once more. The people look, talk and behave as they probably would have been in the 12th century. They are loving and caring, cruel and merciless, aspiring and constantly warring. The violence, filth, blind devotion or unacceptable, to ""modern"" times, customs and concepts, is what makes the book different. I have bought 2 more books of the same author afterwards."
+12217,2,Entertaining with too much profanity !,"My wife and I both read ""Motherhood and Hollywood...""and enjoyed it very much.We always watch ""Everybody Loves Raymond"" and also tape it for later to watch again when there are no more.It seems a lot of Patricia's life is the basis for some of theshows.The only negative is I wish Patricia Heaton had used the same moral sensitivity she did when she walked out of the awards show. Her book had way too much profanity. None at allwould have been better. What's the old saying: People who useprofanity only do so because they don't have an adequatevocabulary to express themselves.Remember when Clark Gable said, ""Frankly my dear.....Well look where we are now !OK, I'll get off my protest podium.I just hate profanity. When you've had a parent that usedprofanity in every sentence , you grow weary hearing it.It's only a two-hour read. If you don't like it you haven'twasted that much time."
+12218,1,was not what i wanted,it was not able to reset and i was unable to get the internet hooked up to it. wasted valuable time trying to figure it out
+12219,1,Disappointing,"After using this book for two weeks here is what I did NOT find: 1) when you create a JList of Vector[] objects, what is displayed in the list is what the toString method of the objects returns. I found this out for myself with no clue from the book. 2) in order to display a JProgressBar it is not enough to use the serValue method of the bar. You need to update the display with pbar.paint(pbar.getGraphics()). Again, no clue from the book. 3) to get the JProgressBar to not flicker all that is necessary is to enable the double buffering property of JProgressBar, a big code saver over the code needed to double buffer in the AWT. Again, no help from the book. The book DOES explain how to use the JProgressBar in a thread that makes the call to paint unnecessary. However, this is NOT what I wanted or needed to do."
+12220,1,Poor,"A very poor book. Don't bother. From the title, you'd think the book has interesting information from high-level commanders. It doesn't. It's mostly just a bunch of ramblings, often contradictory. The chapter on Finland maybe would rate three stars. I think the only useful information in the whole book otherwise was the information on the number of snow-plows per mile that were needed to keep roads clear. If you are looking for any other logistical info, forget it. The description of the book is highly misleading, and I regret having bought it."
+12221,1,Don't Waste Money on Domestc Version,"I am giving the movie only 1 star because of the domestic DVD version of this film. BEWARE!! The movie itself is an awesome film. However, the Japanese release and DVD contain far more detail. Not only is the Japanese version 3 minutes longer, but the Yakuza fight scene is filmed entirely in COLOR. Furthermoe, the Japanese version contains the graphic trunk dismemberment scene of Uma cutting off the other arm of the assistant. The Japanese DVD contains all the same features, and much more! Don't be fooled by the domestic release!"
+12222,2,dinle reader,"throughly enjoy the experience. It takes some gettin used to, not having a book or paper in hand, but I'm sure housewives in the '20's and 30's missed having the milkman, iceman, and coalman stopping by as well."
+12223,2,Got what I paid for,"Very happy to get an Apple charger for HALF the price of one at the Apple store. No extension chord, but not such a big deal."
+12224,2,The Rescue,"I received the book quickly and in good condition. The book "" The Rescue"" was very suspensful. I would recommend the book to anyone who like a nice story with some mystery."
+12225,2,Definitely Helps!,"This guide can be a pain but believe me it helps in this game it keeps you focused when you might be ready to throw in the towel because you don't know what to do, where to go, or who to see."
+12226,2,Amazing!,"You can tell Pulley worked very hard on this album. There are no filler songs on this CD; every song is pure gold. Pulley is a great band formed a bunch of guys kicked out of other bands. (Like Scott from Ten Foot Pole.) I recommend this CD to any fan of Ten Foot Pole, Lagwagon, or any fan of true punk unlike Blink 182."
+12227,1,"Once it works, it's mediocre","Do not buy this product unless you are already an experienced chain-saw user. The blade comes packed seperaely and must be installed, which takes three hands. Then the tension must be adjusted and oil added. Adjusting the tension is difficult, because they paut the screw right next to the blade, which means you only get about half a turn and then have to withdarw the tool they give you and find the slot in the black screw(hard to see)all over again. In addition, there are no markings about which way to turn the screw for the desired effect.If you do buy this saw, read the instrctions. They are actually well written, even though it's hard to perform the tasks described.The saw seems to have enough power to do its job, but getting it adjusted so that you can use it is difficult and keping it that way for more than a few cuts is much more difficult."
+12228,2,A pretty good drill press stand for the Proxxon,"This inexpensive drill press stand is not bad for the price. I found that the moveable workpiece guide on the table was not square with the edge of the table, but a little hand filing on the underside of the guide and locking nut took care of that."
+12229,1,Crap the whole family can enjoy.,Every character is a cliche. The dialog is embarrassing. The plot goes nowhere. Sci-fi smothered with family oriented Velveeta cheese. Keep looking.
+12230,1,borrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrriiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiinnnnnnnngggggggggggg,i didnt like this movie of crocodiles & snakes so i plan on selling the dvd of the two most misunderstood and feared and perhaps dangerous reptiles!it's not the best one out there!
+12231,1,NO EAR PHONE IN THIS RADIO!!!!,BEWARE!!!!! THERE IS NO EAR PHONE JACK IN THIS RADIO... YOU CANNOT LISTEN TO CD'S AT NITE IN YOUR COMFY BED!!!!! NICE RADIO BUT I HAD TO RETURN IT!!!!TRY TO GET THE OLD SONY ICF CD 855V. IT IS NOT MADE ANY MORE BUT I FOUND ONE AND IT IS GREAT! CAN'T IMAGINE WHY 'SONY' WOULD FORGET THE PHONE JACK!!!!
+12232,1,Night mare,"I got it last night and it turned out a nightmare for me. After plug it in USB, I had to shut my computer off by cut off the electricity because it freezed the system. After trying again, it works with a poor quality for only 1 minute and on the screen said "" plug the cam in..."" Thought the cab was not good or because of the USB, I plugged it in another computer and the same thing happened. Trying again and again, but the longest time it worked was 2 minutes only. That's terrible. If U want to get it, think again. Now, I rather use the web of Intel or Logitech even though it doesn't have digital camera function like WEB CAM GO."
+12233,2,Love it!,cute and just love it. a little bit pricey for what I expect but I like it. 4 stars for that.
+12234,1,"Wow, people really love a good dose of crap huh?","This is like taking a box of super hero toys and jamming your head repeatedly into the box with your eyes wide open until you are blind and bleeding.Another film where it's obvious nobody really cared about actual cinema craft. Good story telling, good photography, screw that let's make a bunch of really idiotic action sequences for people who are dressed for no sensible reason at all like 8 year olds on Halloween.At least there are some decent visual effects, that is the only reason I can see this film deserving the one star I am obliged to give it.This film is horrendous. If you think a guy wearing a red white and blue unitard and mask with a big A on it for ""America"" (plus little wings for ears) reading dramatic lines of dialogue sounds like good cinema, then maybe this is the film for you. Clearly, most of America actually bought it. But to me this is as low as it gets."
+12235,1,Mine is better!,"Okay, so I'd seen the billboards for the After Dark Horror Fest around L.A., and a friend of mine thought this would make a good gag gift (no pun intended) as this particular film took the title from an action-horror script I'd written a while back. And quite frankly I can think of a few better titles for this movie: uneventful, uninteresting and unbelievalby boring. Based on this movie alone I am not going to waste my time on any of the other 7 movies from the After Dark Horror Fest. Thanks for the birthday coaster, buddy!"
+12236,2,Nice for the price,"These aren't the finest cashmere ever, but for the price, they're great! I have 7 different colors/patterns and wear them all Fall and Winter. I've even given away several as gifts and they were well received. The Venetian Red is especially nice during the Holidays. I've quit wearing my expensive cashmere, since these work well, I'm not afraid I'll ruin them and it's fun to have the variety. I store all ""wools"" in zip-lock bags, so moths and silverfish don't eat them. I'll probably buy more of these."
+12237,1,Everybody wants some.........,"But this don't deliver hunny! Avoid, keep ya hard earned dollars in ya pocket. 26 used up for sale says it all."
+12238,1,power but no quality,"I was pleased bythe power of this unit. I works in thick batters. However about the 5th usage, the plastic gears stripped. I was not quite finished mixing so this was not a happy moment. Why don't they use metal gears on something that is so important to the longevity of the product. I will go back to a cheaper blender or pay a little more for a real metal drivetrain.black and decker products have always worked pretty well for me. I am disappointed in this product!"
+12239,1,Why,"This ""movie"" is hailed as a great low budget film and Kevin smith had a nice budget. Technically it is horrible and there is no story."
+12240,2,I love the convenience of individual packets. And ...,I love the convenience of individual packets. And these are very nice vitamins. I'll be buying these again!!!
+12241,1,Could have been a short story,"I just finished The Historian and am sorry I wasted so much time reading it. The book is far too long and plodding and not one scene really gripped me. Kostova's writing is pretty amateurish, in my opinion (how many times did I read about ""bright eyes"", ""looked at hard"" etc.). You don't feel as if you get to know what any of the characters are really like and the long passages of letters drags. Sometimes when describing scenery or bringing in some history, the book perks up. But by and large what a huge letdown. I really don't understand the popularity. EK should be ashamed at disappointing readers like this!"
+12242,2,Great Holiday Music!,This CD really gets me in a Holiday mood! Russ Freeman's take on holiday classics is truly unique. Love the latin-influenced God Rest Ye Merry Gentleman!
+12243,1,I found MSDN more useful than this book,"Whenever I need help with STL, I open this book only to find that it has nothing useful on it. For those who have MSDN don't bother to buy this book."
+12244,2,Wonderful collection of country talent,This CD is a great collection of Country Christian artists. The title song brings a lump to your throat.
+12245,1,If I didn't have an imagination this would be good,"While this collection does provide some insights into late twentieth-century coutner-cultural movements, the work selected is more indicative of their faults rather than their strengths. The volume amounts to very little more than page after page of narcissistic ramblings from individuals too lazy and caught up in being an ""artist"" to take the time to revise and hone their work. While political and/or revolutionary poetry, with a strong eye toward all the insipid isms of our culture, is needed and welcomed there is no need to shun craft and artistry, or even-gasp-tradition, for the sake of ""saying something."" The lines in these poems are bland, they more often tell than show, the imagination is rarely challenged. If you must read this book focus on Sapphire, Ai, Norman Mailer, and Williams and skim the rest."
+12246,2,Josh Groban has a magnificent voice....,"Every since I first saw Josh Groban on Ally McBeal, I was fascinated with his voice. If you appreciate real talent this CD is a good pick."
+12247,1,Un grand coup de marketing!!!!,Eh ben franchement cet album mis a part 3 ou 4 chansons granx max n'est pas terrible que ca!! les musique font vraiement pitié encore une chance que 50 cent est là pour limiter les dégats en étant pratiquement sur toutes les chanson moi voilà cet album est plus un grand coup de marketing genre 50 fait de la pub pour ces anciens copains (qui le sont tjs) pour lancer un album trop incipide!! Ecoutez le bien en magasin avant de l'acheter!!
+12248,2,this cd is alright,"it's always like this: when someone gets reallysuccessful, some people start hatin' for thereason that the person has made it. why the hellshould u criticize 50 for this album? it's got alot of good rap tunes (""Many Men"", ""Back Down"",""Bloodhound"", ""Poor Lil Rich"", ""Wanksta"" are myfavs), and yeah he doesn't rap like others he'sgot a little speech problem but why should u disshim for that? he's spitting real street sh**. he'srappin' the way thugs talk. respect this man 4 doin'it & stop hatin'!"
+12249,2,If I could only have one food to eat for the rest of my life it would be pez no doubt about it cherry pez.,"This movie is about four boys Chris,Gordie,Teddy,and Vern.Chris is the one with crappy parents and A bad reputation.Gordie is the quiet one the writer.Teddy is the rather odd one because his father held his ear to A stove and burnt it off.Vern is the fat kid who is funny and A bit dim.One day while sitting in there tree house Vern comes up and tells the rest of the gang he has overheard where the missing kids dead body is so they all travel to find it so they can be hero's and stuff along the way they battle leech's trains and the heart ache of growing up.I loved this movie the first thing I thought when I saw it was man those are some bad kids I mean they cuse there heads off,smoke,and play with guns.Anyway the ending was true you will never have friends like you did when you were twelve."
+12250,2,perfect,"This book is perfect. If you've ever wondered about your life, if you've ever wanted true love, if you've ever done something and had to hide it - this book is great for you. Jennifer Crusie weaves a very romantic yet realistic tale about two families that are just trying to live their lives. One is a family of art forgers, the other a family of confidence men. There's sex, romance, love, family relationships and the Dempsey women from Welcome to Temptation.I expected a sequel to Welcome to Temptation and I was pleasantly surprised to find that it isn't. It's a wonderful story all on its own. Read it."
+12251,1,Not too good,"I am a personal trainer I wanted to give this book to my client co he can do some exercises at home but a lot of stuff is OK for gym not home, you will still have to get a lot of workout stuff ... this is 3 book from Men's Health and the other are much better"
+12252,2,Great movie!!,"I love this movie and every movie made by Pixar. This movie is very cute and funny. The idea is a bit disturbing but who cares, it's a movie."
+12253,2,three mile island: another great nova video,"great nova video with all the facts about the three mile island disaster. if you don't know all the facts, you will after this video! we watched it with our 2nd and 3rd grader and all learned a lot! we thought the movie gave the kids a good idea of what happened...this would be a good movie to have at home, or in your school or library. this movie has great footage of all the people who had to make decisions during this disaster: (govenor, mayor, scientists, president)and clearly shows the stresses that they were under. it held the kids attention for most of the film. they asked so many questions after the film that i'm off to find a 'chernobyl' movie so i can show them what happens in an actual 'meltdown'."
+12254,2,Great Record,"My roomate introduced me to John Mayer's music a couple of year's ago and this was the first record she played for me. It is wonderful - he is an amazing guitar player and songwriter and is one of my favorites. Though everyone knows ""Change The World"" one of my favorite songs is ""Belief"" and its lyrics."
+12255,1,Nothing New,"This is Huff's 3rd edition of the book. The first one published in 1990 included cutting-edge research and was really great!! The second edition was not as good (since it did not offer too much cutting-edge knowledge) but had some great informative studies. The third edition is by far, the worst. Most of the 18 chapters are literature reviews and offer nothing significant to our knowledge of gangs. If there is a 4th edition published, I hope to see qualitative or quantitative empirical research and by different authors NOT included in editions 1 through 3."
+12256,1,LOOKS GOOD BUT NOT DURABLE,"This lasted about three years of only summer use. The motor burned out. This fan does look nice. It is hefty, but is not exactly a well made quality product. I had problems with the fan blade-it kept falling off. The blade is secured to the motor rod by small screw. Once or twice a season the blade would fall off. I had to remove the grill to reattach. Nothing too major, but I'd always wonder why this problem wasn't engineered out. I also believe this problem caused the motor to burn out. I think the blade fell off and lodged against the grill and stopped the motor rod from spinning.That being said, the fan looks good. I took the motor out and plan to replace the motor if i can find one that fits."
+12257,1,DEAD ON ARRIVAL,Arrived promptly but high-speed has never worked since day one. Not worth the money and hassle to return it. BE CAREFUL!
+12258,2,Old School yet digging the new sound,"I just purchased this album and found it to be rather refreshing. It is clear that Kanye is not your a typical ghetto lumpenproletriat. However in response to the review from Louis Lynn, Kanye is not in the top 5% of America's wealthiest people either. It is obvious that you are a product of the Houston public school system. I find your economic acumen to be a joke. If you read, you would find that the 5% wealthiest people in America are billionaires. (spelled with a ""B""). Why don't you check out the Forbes list. (Forbes is a magazine)"
+12259,1,Vulgar does not equal funny,"Well, I will admit that I am a big Jim Carrey fan. I will also admit that this movie was not very good. There are some funny parts that are quite vulgar, but overall the movie is a complete waste of time.Jim Carrey tries to find humor in being obscene (yes, obscene even for him), but many of the sick jokes fall flat. There is almost no plot at all (not that I really expected any). This movie could have been about 15 minutes, not 90. For some reason people often find profanity funny; I think that this is often an overseen mistake with many comedy script writers. Not funny. Don't bother with this one. ..."
+12260,1,Compelling yet difficult to read through because of poor edi,A compelling view of bible prophecy that was difficult to read through because of extremely poor editing that increasingly distracted from the book's content. Don't publishers proofread anymore?
+12261,1,very disappointing,"After all the hype, I expected more. I kept plugging away, but could not get interested and finally gave up, something I rarely do."
+12262,2,Enticing horror fiction at its best,"HEXES is the most engaging novel I've read in the past six months, on par with Doug Clegg's THE HALLOWEEN MAN (which is one of my favorites as well). THe characters come alive, the atomsphere wraps you in its endrils, and the narrative flow is action-packed and rapid-fire. THere's a depth here that few novels ever reach, and Piccirilli mines it to perfection."
+12263,1,Not worth the wait,I waited over 18 months for this book to come into a more reasonable price range. It wasn't worth the money or the wait. The author's work is very poor and he thinks the reader is interested in his every thought and weak comments. How did this book get published? I really believed this book would help me decide Darlie's guilt or innocence and it didn't. I'm still not sure!
+12264,1,YeePee...PORN with a PLOT ! ! !,"*BASIC INSTINCT: Unrated Director's Cut*Wow, I don't remember this movie being so pornographic. I guess the Director's Cut, with the extra 5 minutes, is nothing more than extra porn. I remember it's what made Sharon Stone so popular? This would have made her a legend if it was released this way. From graphic oral sex(Michael on Sharon) to a near rape scene, this movie is just too much for me. The main story is great, with a great twist for an ending(or non-twist, depending on how you look at it) however, the graphic sex-scenes are just not neccessary and are way too overboard(I can't help but wonder if Sharon Stone and Michael Douglas are still proud of their work on this film?).Go ahead and call me prude, but I cannot recommend this filthy trash."
+12265,2,The best Final Fantasy movie ever,"This is the movie that all the fans were waiting for since the game, too shame that we got first ""The spirit within"" (don't take me wrong, the movie is fine, but not THIS fine). Special thanks to the new scenes. This is a movie for the fans of the saga and everyone else."
+12266,1,A Feeble Entry In A Familiar Series...,"This one had promise - the female lead is a looker, better than those cast in similiar productions, but her acting was abominable, which I could have easily overlooked IF the movie delivered the goods, which it didn`t. It wasn`t your typical WIP flick,(which would`ve been a good thing to break the mold), but it wasn`t much of anything else either. The box appeared to be an updating of the 'Female Prisoner Scorpion' series, but no such luck. Don`t bother with this one, read my reviews of other similiar flix and pick one you won`t be let down by. Lord knows there are enough of them out there..."
+12267,1,Disappointing,"This cd is extremely disappointing. It is not worth buying. Go pick up ""Temples of Boom"" or ""IV"" instead. Cypress Hill has lost its soul and has fallen into the hands of the industry, money-making sharks. The lyrics are repetitive and the beats simply suck. It almost sounds like the new Justin Timberlake album. I feel like it doesn't represent Cypress Hill. Don't let yourself get fooled by this album. It's just another music group gone dead."
+12268,2,"""A Christmas Story"" review",I absolutely loved this CD. The group 'Point of Grace' is one of my favorite Christian groups. Their songs touch my heart like no one else does. I still listen to it even though the Christmas season has passed. I play it over and over. The message in these songs is timeless. I highly recommend this CD.
+12269,2,I've been looking for this one for many years! Awesome book!,"This book commands crazy prices on the used book market, so I had given up hope on ever being able to read it, until now! This is a great time to be a sporting book enthusiast, as many of these old classics are now becoming available in low cost reprint editions. Diligent searches will reveal books you never thought you'd ever get to read! Kudos to the publishing houses who have undertaken this project to supply some very exclusive titles to those of us who don't read best sellers!"
+12270,1,"Love the band, hate this CD","I've been a huge Aerosmith fan since the mid-80s. I've loved every CD they've put out since ""Permanent Vacation."" (Okay, I take that back. I only half-loved ""Nine Lives."")But I'm really not a blues fan, and I just couldn't get into this CD at all. Make no mistake, if you're not a blues fan, you probably won't like this album.Here's hoping they come out with another CD of original Aerosmith material sometime soon..."
+12271,1,horrible twist ties,"These bags are HORRIBLE. You have to fumble with the top to open the bag (not sanitary) then once you pour/pump the milk in, you have to put it in a mug to tie and freeze!! Who has time to wait for it to freeze to remove the mug!?!! Also dealing with the twist tie is a nightmare and it's impossible to get all the air out.Also, The bags take up too much room in the freezer. I LOVE the bags that can lie flat like Lansinoh (much easier to pour, freeze, and unthaw as they can lay flat). You can buy 25 Lansinoh bags for $6 at Target, and they're much much better qualityI'm throwing the rest of mine away. They're totally useless"
+12272,1,Don't use on your Macbook!,"I bought this product because the people at the Apple store told me I could buy your generic multi surface cleaning wipes and save some money compared to the cleaner they had at the store. So I found Pledge Multi Surface Everyday Wipes that say they are safe on electronics and glass. I used this product on my Macbook glass computer screen and it leaves streaks so bad. It also leaves lint or particles or dust wherever you use it. I use it to dust my entertainment center stand, which is also glass, and it pretty much just moves the dust around into piles instead of picking it up. Because this product does such a bad job on my computer I now would usually rather have a dusty screen than go through the frustration of ""trying"" to clean it with these wipes."
+12273,1,It could've been better for the price,"When I received the toy, the one of the hinges on the lap shade was broke. The alarm clock does not work, you cannot see the clock while the lamp is on and the shade is very top heavy so it falls over alot, esp if u bump it a tiny bit. Definitely not worth 30 bucks but my daughter loves it."
+12274,2,Remys okay,"I fell for Rock Steady, however it was the remix of Rock Steady that I first heard, I was a little disppointed because this track was the main reasons for buying this CD. The remaining tracks are okay."
+12275,1,A sales pitch masquerading as a book,"Interesting, yes; convincing? Hardly. You will not be surprised to learn that the Ries are in the business of PR, and this book is nothing more than an extended sales pitch to prosepctive customers.There are still plenty of good examples out there on the efficacy of good advertising campaigns. Consider the single bet-the-company ad that turned Monster.com from a near-bankrupt entity into a profitible enterprise. Or Apple's original Mac ad.Advertising, like any other business, has its share of trends and fads, and right now the big fad is PR-based advertising. This, too, will pass, and we won't have to read books like this one."
+12276,2,Love the book but horrible packaging..,"The package was delivered timely. However, the book was slightly torn on the cover. (reason for the 4 stars instead of 5)About the book: If you want a comprehensive book on making patterns, this is it. The book is written in simple plain English and does include some basic sewing terminology. I recommend this book to anyone who is just starting to sew. You will learn how to make and adjust patterns and in do so, will save a lot of money."
+12277,2,Hilarious!,"We have numerous cats and the ""cat butt"" is just something you deal with from certain cats. We thought this was a hilarious item and we use them as fridge magnets. I could live without the included ""free"" hairball magnet though."
+12278,1,I Invented Remix,"Sean Combs did not invent remix, I did or perhaps you did, but certainly not Sean aka P. Diddy, aka Puff Daddy. The claim is so ridiculous that only an egomaniac would make such. And, there is nothing on this album to confirm his claim. Most of the tracks range from lame to pedestrian and certainly do not exhibit any originality.Sean thinks he created the first remixes during 1991. That claim alone should be enough warning to avoid this pathetic compilation. I predict Sean next will claim inventing the drum machine and hip-hop. There is an old adage that if you tell a lie enough times, most people will believe it. Obviously, Sean believes his own lies and this album is proof.Bottom line: this is boring."
+12279,1,"A Sanskrit Gammar, by W.D.Whitney","This edition of Whitney's classic grammar is deficient. Scanned from a copy at the Cornell University Library, either the copy used was incomplete or the scanning process was faulty, as pages are missing both from the table of contents at the front and the general index at the rear of the book. This is fatal for a reference grammar. How is one supposed to find what one is looking for? This edition should not be on the market: it needs to be corrected by adding the missing pages before it is again presented to the public. Instead, buy the edition sold by Nataraj Books in Springfield Virginia on Amazon Marketplace, in which no pages are missing from either the table of contents or the general index, in which the pages are sewn rather than glued, as they are in the Cornell edition, which is hard cover instead of paperback, as is the Cornell edition, and which, finally, costs $8 less than the defective Cornell edition."
+12280,1,Avoid these speakers,"Pure junk,cheap. Made poorly, horrible sound...cracks even in little volume. very DISSAPOINTED, not much more say about it, except don't buy it."
+12281,2,Do the math---badly!,"Don't let ANYONE tell you the inability to understand math is a handicap. I bought 20 of these watches, and saved enough to buy a house! Certainly, it's modest house, but it's home.My friends were amazed that I could afford to buy these watches to begin with. Well, I wasn't able to afford them, of course, so after saving $15,000 on each, I returned them, saying they didn't fit.Without my stunning inability to grasp even the most basic math concepts, I would never have been able to imagine this plan, let alone execute it. And let me tell you, failing high school algebra I twice was a small price to pay for my beautiful new home!"
+12282,2,Fleetwoods review,"I purchased and listened and enjoyed this CD - BUT this is not the original recordings. If you are looking for the original sound, look for another ""best of"". Also, there is no mention anywhere, by anyone, that this is not the original recordings."
+12283,2,Pretty good,"Some good songs, some so-so. Jennifer Knapp is great. I like the Newsboys remix, too. Check out the artists and make sure you like most of them."
+12284,2,Repeat customer,"This is my second Sangean. I purchased the same model about 5-6 years ago. It's the same but the earphones are better. The previous radio gave good service until performance deteriorated recently. For the money, I don't see anything better out there. Not sure why a solid state circuit should not last nearly indefinitely but all my portable radios seem to 'wear out' (i.e., lose sensitivity) after a few years. The only one I think may be equal or better than the Sangean is from CC Crane, but their prices are a lot higher and offer no assurance of lasting longer at peak performance."
+12285,2,Amazing. Simply Amazing,"We're reading this in my 10th Honors English class right now, but it's one of those books I read FIRST on my own and thought: I MUST teach this to my class. It's simply unlike any book I've read; sporting Bradburyesque imagery but delivered in a contemporary narrative. Also very nonlinear, which of course I've got a soft spot for. One of those books that makes me realize all my shortcomings and limitations as a writer."
+12286,2,"great, wonderful...","I think this book is a great primer and introduction to healthy eating and also has all that you need to know to just go ahead and do it! Some of the recipes in the book are quite ""American specific"" but it is also pretty clear how they can be adapted to other cuisines and countries because the rest of the book is so clear about the basics of this way of eating... Lots of information, easy to read, i bought it for my father who is facing some health problems ( I am a long time low fat vegan myself already.... ) but read through it first and enjoyed it..."
+12287,1,Love or Hate???,"Once I started watching this movie, I could not stop. Not due to the fact that it was great cinema, but rather because it was so terribly awful! Very campy and incredibly crude at times, this is a cult classic that I am glad to have in my collection. That being said, I think it will be a long time before I sit down to watch it again."
+12288,2,Relaxing,This is a relaxing CD that i enjoy listening to when i get home from work or have had a stressing day in general. Well worth listening to
+12289,1,STAY AWAY from this piece of JUNK,"one reason for buying antivirus is for protection.This software will NOT update. so you are left with outdated virus signature.support is a JOKE.. aha.. what support? their knowlege base has ONE line of info, and it does not relate to update problems.if you like throwing $$$ away.. go ahead. else, go with another productif there is a ZERO Star.. i would have used it"
+12290,1,dangerous lamp for children or anyone!,"My daughter fell in love with this lamp so I got it for her last christmas. It is really attractive. It came with a small bulb in it, so we plugged it in and set it up in her room. I don't know how soon it happened, but before we knew it, the surrounding plastic had melted so badly that it sealed the bulb into the lamp and also took some of the chandelier in with it so it formed a gooey glob where the light should be. Soon we could smell burning plastic. If I had saved the receipt, I would have returned it. So in the absence of that, I thought I could at least warn other parents. It was not cheap and it certainly not safe!!!"
+12291,1,Wasted cast,"Get a good cast together, get a Director who has done a few good films, put together a dull storyline with lots of subplots, introduce too many characters in such a short timeframe .... and see if people notice! Le Divorce is all of this. I can't help but feel that an opportunity has been lost with this project. Names like Glenn Close and Stockard Channing have no real prominence in this film, and that is because there wasn't enough time to develop their characters. Maybe when they first signed on for the film, the script was different.Le Divorce tries to introduce too many characters, too many storylines and disguise it in a french setting (maybe they thought viewers would fall for the romantic setting and overlook the crappy storyline).The film makes the french look shallow and sleazy. Unfair!Easily one of the most pointless and silly films of recent times."
+12292,1,Got ripped off,I was sent a blank tape. I was ripped off.I wrote to the seller but the seller didn't have the guts to reply.So this is my 1st bad experience with buying through Amazon or people selling through Amazon.I don't blame Amazon at all. This was an independent seller.
+12293,1,"Early, Awkward Schulze","""Blackdance"" is an early, clunky Schulze composition that doesn't quite come off. Though Schulze was beginning to find his voice at this point, this album lacks the complexity and ethereal qualities of his later 70's work. The opening track, ""Waves of Changes,"" is primarily 20 minutes of a bongo drum beat with gritty, hollow synth noodling over the top. ""Some Velvet Phasing"" is synth noodling without the bongo drum beat. And the last and longest track, ""Voices of Syn"" features an operatic baritone voice singing a very dark and beautiful melody, but soon dissolves into an almost unlistenable scratchy drum beat for the next 15 minutes. There are parts that Schulze fans will enjoy, especially in the first track, but by and large a dull and dissapointing album."
+12294,1,Never Received Book!,"About 2 months after the purchase of the book; no book received. Email sent to seller has not met with a response or explanation. At this point, I could never recommend this seller. Money has been paid and no product to show for it. Not Happy!"
+12295,1,please take my money!,"Sure - I'm going to buy this without any description, starring roles, or movie titles. NOT!!"
+12296,1,danceinohio,"I think this is hard for an adult, let alone a kid!! It can be fun and can get your heart raised, but sometimes the pad doesn't respond when you step on it making it very frustrating!"
+12297,1,Brightness,"It's not a bright as I thought it should be, it does work so that is not the issue. I have a light bar under the tailgate that i like a lot but the 3rd brakelight just isn't impressive.It was very easy to install."
+12298,2,Comprehensive and inclusive; if a little conservative,"The main reason I recommend this is that it presents many points of view. Often the authors come down on the more conservative side (as another reviewer correctly points out), but the authors do give space for the various viewpoints to be explained and manage a pretty good job of separating their opinion from others (there's a fair few ""although most scholars believe X, we still feel that Y""). Cross references are good, the writing is clear, and the articles cover most topics, with a leaning towards theology rather than basic explanation. Recommended for scholars and people willing to think through many points of view!"
+12299,2,Solid controller but a bit too large,"This is the original controller that comes with the original MicroSoft XBox console. It is a high-quality piece and has not failed me. But it is a bit too big, even for my clownish large American hands, and the black and white buttons are not placed very well. The S-controller is better. But still this is a good controller."
+12300,1,** Pure Garbage **,This stuff is absolutely HORRIBLE. Do the board members of these companies actually taste the garbage they sell?Pure garbage.
+12301,2,pretty good,"I found this book to be pretty good indeed, Nothing like a book to make one feel worth while, a truly feel good about yourself book, I would recommend this book to many females that just don`t have the self esteem that they should have, FOR WE ARE ALL WONDERFUL PEOPLE.A recommendation from my point of view:Poetry that holds, Stories untold,Another wonderful book, that I would recommend to any and everyone!"
+12302,2,There is angels on Earth!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!,I am 42 year old female that listens to pop and country. I saw Charolette on Jay Leno & Good Morning Amer. and this girl brought tears to my eyes-seriosly!! It was so ironic that I saw her a week apart here in the states. It was as though I was meant to see her both times. She sang Danny Boy the first time. I wish her well. I have a 13 yr. old myself and she is as bubbly as she is talented. From The U.S.-go girl!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
+12303,2,An Intriguing Thriller,"I listened to the unabridged version of this book on tape and found it to be incredibly entertaining. It is long (17 hours on tape) but if you have some time to kill, its definitely worth a go. Although the big secret isn't all that hard to guess and the book does drag a bit in the last third its tremendously enjoyable, in a guilty pleasure sort of way. I forsee this becoming a better than average summer popcorn movie--some of the characters even seem to have been written with big time stars in mind (Harrisson Ford, Danny DeVito, Jodie Foster perhaps). At any rate this is perfect fare for a lengthy week at the beach or a long drive."
+12304,2,An Extraordinary Book,"The book Memoirs of a Geisha was extraordinary. The characters captured my heart and the feelings of the geishas were explained so well that I felt as if I were also a geisha. I felt that I was next to Sayuri throughout the whole book, and her character was so real. The situations that the geishas go through are so attention grabbing and make you want to help the geisha through her problems.This book has many good parts, yet some parts that are not very appropriate for certain people. I think I would recommend this book to people who are at least in high school. The book is great, but some parts would not be suitable for young children in elementary or middle school. I would also recommend this book to those who like Japanese history and historical fiction. Also this could be a good read for people who enjoy biographies or autobiographies."
+12305,2,Fantastic live album from the industrial pioneers,"In support of their comeback album, KMFDM released this live set chronicling their 2003 tour. ""WWIII Live"" is a simply awesome live album that shows the long running industrial outfit at the tightest they've sounded in years, with some great live sound quality and production value: something that their new label Sanctuary Records is known for doing (just listen to Ministry, Megadeth, Anthrax, etc.). ""Blackball"", ""Brute"", ""Stars & Stripes"", ""Revenge"", and of course, ""Juke Joint Jezebel"" and ""Drug Against War"" are brought to life live so intensely that it's going to be hard for even the most jaded KMFDM fan to not like this. Although it would have been nice if a double disc live album covering more of KMFDM's material would have been released instead, this is still an excellent live album, and a must own for KMFDM fans."
+12306,1,Captain obvious/ Captain no facial expressions.,"This dvd was horrendous. I only saw his show once, and thought it was okay, and my friend lent me this dvd. I was misled to think this was funny in the least bit. He:Makes observations that are simple and not funny.Makes like one or two facial expressions.Has one talking voice, and one yelling voice, no variation...It was sad to see the people in the audience laughing so hard about NOTHING FUNNY. Oh man, waste of my time. Please, don't waste yours. (Or your money. This Dvd is surprisingly expensive...)*Note- My favorite comics are: Jerry Seinfeld, Brian Reagan, Jim Gaffigan, Demitri Martin, Mitch Hedberg, etc*"
+12307,2,"Larger than life character, more interesting than Bill Gates","Fred Maxwell has done it! Actually written a biography of an executive that is fun and informative. You can tell that he has done his homework, and you can tell that Maxwell is a creative, lifelong writer, with a lot of great things to say, and the ability to make all of his scenarios keep you turning pages, laughing, and thinking. Did Steve Ballmer pose for the cover of that last Tom Wolfe book, ""A Man in Full""?"
+12308,2,Great travel companion!,"I have used both the Rome and Paris map books and found them to be fabulous!! Easy to carry, easy to read and compact so you don't have to fold those miserable city maps. It breaks down the map by neighbourhood and specifies some of the things to see. We use it mainly for the map. Throw away those hotel maps!! Loved them so much that I bought a 2nd Rome, 2 additional copies of Paris for friends, Venice, Florence, Barcelona & London. Highly recommend them."
+12309,1,SOUND IS REALLY BAD!,"Theres three things wrong with this thing.(1) It's not loud at all, u will need a amp to listen to this player.(2) Only 16MB, I could only put up to 8 songs on it.(3) IT EATS YOUR BATTERIES UP IN AN HOUR. (Get rechargeable batteries)But the main thing is the sound, too low, u will not have a good time with this. But for $40 retail, U cant ask for much."
+12310,2,Worth it,"I usually listen to deep house, down-tempo house, electronica and techno but after this CD I'm starting to appreciate vocal house. I didn't like it at first but after a few listens I found myself singing along to the irresistably uplifting, positive vocals. This is what I would call a girl's CD but guys, try it out. You'll be singing along with ""call it fate,"" ""let me be your fantasy,"" ""born funky"" and others."
+12311,2,good,"It was interesting and entertaining. I would recommend it. I learned a lot about the composer and his life. The acting is wonderful. There are a few long drawn out scenes that are a bit boring, but overall it was great. The historical elements were especially interesting."
+12312,1,ATT is really bad!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!,"WOW!!!!!! I came over from Verizon because cingulair has nicer cell phones.... the first thing I noticed was the really bad service. Att is not clear, sound is very distorted and you have to yell when you talk. I know it is not the phone because I tried another phone and it still sounded bad. So if you want superior service go with Verizon, I plan on going back after this crappy two year contract is up and over with.The W810i is a nice phone though except for one thing.... the end call button is right next to the internet sign on button, so if you accidentally hit this button you will instantly be charged for going online..... tsk tsk tsk, I thought sony ericsson was better than this."
+12313,2,Keeper,This book has a very interesting and thick plot. The characters in this book are more developed than Dickey's previous books. It is a different style of writing that I love. It is a must read I read in less than a day!!!!! He stepped his game up and I recommend this book.
+12314,2,"good scooter, needs some maintenance","Don't get me wrong, the scooter is awesome. The only problem was that the battery needed to be replaced as soon as the scooter came because it had gotten damaged during delivery. Razor sent a replacement battery for free, guess what, we had to re-wire it ourselves!!! It was hard work, but we got the job done. To this day the scooter works fine, i just wish razor had been a bit more of assistance. I rate this 4 stars"
+12315,1,Get another one,"This worked once, MAYBE twice after jiggling with it forever so it was in JUST RIGHT. It was maddening. I threw it away and got one by a different manufacturer (San**sk, if I may say) that works perfectly. I be happy now."
+12316,2,Pricing Changes Quickly...,"At the time that I purchased this boxed set, it was $54.99 for Seasons 1 through 4...not sure why it went up so drastically, but I'd definitely watch this if you're interested in purchasing it...hopefully it'll come down in price again soon!"
+12317,2,Very nice!,"I saw this Sasha at stores yesterday,and I think she was very nice.I think the whole Rock Angelz collcetion is awsome.Collcet them all,and make an awsome Bratz Rock Angelz concert.SARA SIBLINI!!!MY SCENE LOVER!!!BRATZ LOVER!!!*FOREVER*P.S.I`ve got Rock Angelz Jade yesterday too,and I am very happy that I have a Bratz doll now!"
+12318,2,Check your order!,"Just received the Miller jersey from NFL Shop. Everything looked correct, including the labeling on the plastic wrapper. I opened the wrapper to find a very well constructed Steelers jersey in the correct size, but when I unfolded the jersey, it was that of another Steelers player. I called NFL Shop and they were very professional in issuing a Return Merchandise Label and offered me a discount and free shipping on future orders."
+12319,1,Overrated,"I read all the reviews and thought these would be really good. Well, they aren't. You would need to use all three together in one spot or they don't light up enough to see anything. I guess if you wanted to use them for mood lighting they would be okay."
+12320,1,"Do not buy this, yet","This review is for the MP3 DOWNLOADS, not the CD. The songs Pray and Prisoner have errors in them from when they were mastered to MP3. A horrible clicking noise runs through both songs. Probably from defective media. The Song No More Mourning skips like crazy."
+12321,1,Rather Boring,"I had been wanting to brush up on some urban legends, so i purchased this book (used, thankfully). I normally enjoy the Idiot Guides, but this one not so much. I read it in about 2 hours time.I started it like any other book, but it quickly became quite boring. i ended up skimming through most of the book, only slowing down when i came to the actual stories. I liked the actual urban legend stories that were including, but that's pretty much all i enjoyed.I wouldnt recommend this for anyone who wants to add the actualy Urban Legend tales to their library. I only spent a few bucks on it, but it seriously wasn't worth it."
+12322,2,Very Comfy Socks! Great quality,"This is a DEAL! these socks are very good quality, they are thick and comfortable. They stretch and they don't shrink too bad in the dryer. I would definitely purchase these again. I use these as gym socks and they are great for any kind of training, walking, running, or even daily use. My only complaint is after several washes they still lint pretty heavily on the bottom of your feet when you take the socks off. Outside of that I love them."
+12323,1,noise that would awake batman.,"ok, I get it - the OLT gang are all into experimentalism and all that, and they are very groovy, oh yeah they are groovy. when they sing, they shine brightly, PET SOUNDS style with a twist, vodka music from early 20's. but they rarly sing. most of this cd is nothing but annoying time wating money wasting niplish special effect noise. OK, great, you are experimelntal, you are expanding our horizons, but why oh why can't you do this hearable?. songs like ""late music 2"" are just unworthy. the thin line between art and just plane poopoo isn't even available for the eye - this cd is way way in the poopoo land.go hear other E6 bands. go go go."
+12324,2,I Love This CD!!!!!,"I am so in love with this cd!!!! I don't even speak spanish. the best song is ""Candela"". I just love it!!!!!"
+12325,2,Essential book for photographers,"I haven't finished this book yet, as it's a little dry for my reading style preference, but it definitely contains the basics any photographer needs to know."
+12326,2,Love my shades,"I even was able to install them by myself!! If you knew me you would buy them just for that fact haha. They look nice, Love the color and if I had more windows that they would fit on I would buy them for my whole house!!"
+12327,1,Silly piece of junk,"No matter what station you put this thing on, you will get static. I live in an area where there are about 8 radio stations, so its definitely not interference. That static will be magnified because you have to turn your radio up considerably to hear your music. With ""smart sound"" turned on the transmission will get slightly louder (though still not even close to loud enough) but the volume will fade up and down throughout a song and vary greatly between different songs.After 2 days with this thing I finally broke down and bought the wiring needed to create an AUX port in my car and this device is now just my iPod charger - which it is great at, by the way. The flexible mount is great and my iPod stays nice and snug in the cradle."
+12328,1,Not the best book out there,"The Prima book looks thrown together. Some of the other books I've compared it to, such as the Sybex and Sandwich Island strat guides, are much better. Just becasue it's official doesn't mean it's editorially superior!"
+12329,1,"ok, wouldn't purchase again",I wanted a fireplace and aquarium for my flat screen and didn't research very much before purchased this. I am sure there are better ones on the market. It will do in a pinch.
+12330,1,Blu-ray Version Is Terrible,"I'm not going to go into the plot of these two movies from the xxxHolic and Tsubasa series, other sites have that covered, but here is the deal, Funimation has yet again releases another upscaled piece of garbage.This Blu-ray set has a number of issues with the video. The images are blurry, the lines are fuzzy, colors washed out, there is noticeable gradient banding, and artifacting during many scenes. If you own the DVDs, stick with them as they are the best quality available.If you want a HD version of this anime wait for the official release from the studio, not some cheap Funimation weekend project. I ended up returning this because I am not going to pay for this horrible mess of a release.I added some screenshots to the images section to show how bad this release is. Make sure to look at it full size, as it naturally looks better at a smaller size. Also the screenshot was not altered in any way from the Blu-ray source."
+12331,1,item could use some improvement,"I am sending it back today. If you have a cordless phone, chances are strong that you will not be happy with this product. After 2 hours of trying everything, I did get a clear picture, but needed to be standing away from the unit.The signal is adequate for rooms that are in close proximity, but even testing the unit out 6 feet away, I experienced a loss of picture quality. If you don't mind lines of static, or have a phone that is not on this frequency, maybe it will work for you.For me...I will find a way to install a wire."
+12332,2,Linked in the business world,"In ""Linked"" we have a rare opportunity to listen to a gifted teacher use narrative examples to explain his efforts to understand how the web and the internet are networked and organized. Barabasi shares with us his break-through concepts that show the web is not a random connection of computers and servers, but rather an organized network that continues to develop based on growth and choice. He then goes on to illustrate how many other areas of our lives can be better understood by viewing them as networks that follow the same development principals of growth and choice.I believe ""Linked"" will become a clasic text for those who want to apply these network concepts to the business world as well as those whose first interest is the world of science. Why do some new business formats or new products or services take off while ohers fail? A careful study of ""Linked"" and the concepts of hubs, growth and choice may help illustrate and explain the reasons."
+12333,2,"Big Jake, big fun","This movie was a Wayne family affair. Michael produced, Patrick starred, and Ethan (Wayne's grandson) was featured. This was also his last pairing with Maureen O'Hara and though their scenes were few, they were classic. Richard Boone is excellent as the villian. Look for a lot of familar faces rounding out the cast. Wayne is as comfortable in this role as an old shoe. The action builds to a great shoot out climax. This movie has one of Wayne's best lines too. ""You can call me Jake, you can call me father, you can call me you dirty son of a b.... This movie is worth it for that scene alone."
+12334,2,Work Versus Family,"This humorous autobiography tells about one sportscaster's quest to balance work with his family life. If you don't mind foul language, this book will entertain you."
+12335,2,In Brightest Day...,"Holy cow!! I have never read a comic book, let alone a Green Lantern comic, so a friend recommended this to me and I immediately fell in love with it. It's a fantastic story with fantastic characters, that you just can't help but love, and a great journey about overcoming fear and finding your inner willpower. And, the materials provided in the product really helped me catch up on any backstory I was missing. This is a great product that I would recommend to anyone who is a long-time Green Lantern fan, or someone like me who is just getting started."
+12336,1,Hurts my toes!,This product canot be worn by someone with planter facitis as it hurts your toes. I was looking forward to receiving and trying this sock only to discover it was a waste of money
+12337,1,YOU DO NOT GET WHAT IS PICTURED,"I ordered this to connect my camera to my telescope. The version I received does not look anything like the picture, frankly I am afraid to connect it to my camera. It does not have the stops T-mounts usually have to prevent it from rotating in the Camera mount (meaning that when you attach the camera, if the camera begins to rotate under its own weight, it can disconnect and you camera will crash to the floor. The T- mount I received it is extemely thin and flimsy unlike the robust one pictured in the ad. It will cost me more in time taking it to the post office and paying to return it, I might as well dump it in the garbage. All my experiences with Adorama prior to this point have been positive, hope this is not signs of the way the company is heading."
+12338,1,Agonizingly unreadable,"I have enjoyed Lisa Garnder's other books, and was very much looking forward to this one...to my great disappointment. Aside from the overwrought and completely unrealistic plot, I found none of the characters likeable. It was an exercise in self-torture to actually finish this book."
+12339,1,Disappointed,"I enjoyed _A Rush of Blood to Your Head_, but was disappointed by this new album. Unpoetic lyrics set to random tunes."
+12340,2,Mr. Meeks finds some maturity.,"Louisvillian Travis Meeks has made a solid CD that departs from the self-indulged angst that dominated ""Days"" first album. This CD contains very strong guitar playing by Meeks and starts out with one of the stronger cuts ""Flight Response."" ""Enemy"" almost has a disco feel to it(in a good sort of way) and the lyrics really shows he has matured and is willing to accept people more. Meeks' biggest asset is his honesty. If he stays honest, he will always have fans."
+12341,2,Wonderful commentary and illustration.,"My family has been using this Haggadah for our seder for years. We have enjoyed discussing the artwork, reading the unique commentary and discussing it. We have been using it for close to two decades and it has enriched our experience greatly."
+12342,1,Greek Music Not Flamenco,The CD and other armik CDs all sound like Greek music. I have a Greek CD I purchased in Greece. I can find some melodies sound exactly the same. It also sounds like Iranian music.This music is not flamenco flame or gypsy or new flamenco. I recommend Spanish artists.
+12343,1,"0 Stars really , but they wouldn't let me. Save your money.","The Mediaeval Babes is the confection of some bright spark who thought that the girlie-group formula could be joined with the music of the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries to... well, to make a lot of money. I suspect that they failed: they certainly deserved to.The Babes themselves are a washed-out bunch of hopeless wanabees. Some can sing a little, none does anything well. Their music is a crude blend, tasteless, talentless pastiches of mediaeval standards alternating with phoney pretend stuff.I can't go on - The Mediaeval Babes and their CDs are truly awful. At 33c it's a rip-off, and the quoted $33.99 is criminal. Go away and get the real thing - The Spice Girls or Hildegard of Bingen, not a cheap and risible imitation of both."
+12344,2,Terrorism and Liberalism have a lot in common,"I say that terrorism and liberalism have a lot in common because of the fact that they are both attacking this country and this courageous president. They both would love to see this country and this president fail. We have seen how Clinton refused to capture Bin Laden and to prosecute the terrorists who were responsible for the attacks against us in the first WTC bombing, Suadia Arabia, Embassies in Africa, US Cole, etc...I am glad Sean used that title--there's no better time than now to expose the terrorism-liberalism connection."
+12345,2,Great energy!,"The first time I used this for a run, I felt like I had an ACME rocket strapped to my butt. Tastes horrible when you try to dump it all into your mouth at one time, but works great if you mix it into your water bottle. I use it all the time in conjunction with CLIF bars on longer runs."
+12346,1,don't buy this one,poor character development. no description. didn't care what happened to any of them . blossom st series much better. no editors to advise debbie on this?
+12347,1,Will Not Work in a Leapster Explorer Despite..............,"I did a search for ""Leapster Explorer Diego"" and this popped up so I purchased it. When I gave it to my daughter and she opened it up, it would not fit. I guess I should have not trusted the ""search"" and read the fine print. Now I have to pay for shipping to return it since it was my error according to Amazon."
+12348,1,Poor Connection with Xbox 360 controller,"The headset works perfectly fine while it is connected properly; it just becomes disconnected incredibly easily. The speaker quality is surprisingly lower than expected since its such a cumbersome ear piece, but again, it should have a better fastener for the controller itself. I do not recomend this headset"
+12349,2,Good value,I was looking for some replacement PC speakers for mostly listening to music. This package had a good price and I was surprised at performance.
+12350,2,Worth the money?...,"What makes The Zombies so interesting is that they produced three oddly syncopated, jazz-infused and wonderfully different singles: ""She's Not There"", ""Tell Her No"" and the beautifully atmospheric ""Time of the Season""... so good that no 60s collection is complete without them... plus two further ""you really should have them"" singles in ""Whenever You're Ready"" & ""Care of Cell 44"". Problem is how do you find them on the same CD. Well here's one of a couple of compilations that include all five, surrounded by several other equally distinctive tracks and a large amount of intriguing, but probably ""destined to be played only a couple of times"" stuff. Worth the money?... well that depends on how many of their ""classics"" you already own."
+12351,2,Notorious by 5 After 4,"Vito Rezza is one of the finest and most creative drummers in the world, who demonstrates fearsome talent. He composes, plays, sings and stuns everyone who sees him perform. Notorious is unique, fresh and very hip. It does away with musical parameters while maintaining the genius of Jazz, by melding rock, metal and reggae into jazz fusion.Tracks:1. The Rock [In Memory of Rocco] - 6:272. Tasot - 4:45 3. Go - 3:134. Mean Streets - 8:225. Boys Will Be Boys - 5:016. Teresa's Song - 4:477. Now Is Then - 5:538. Higher Ground - 5:239. No Relation - 6:5610. Hansoo [Dedicated to Mario] - 6:57 Label: Jazz Inspiration"
+12352,2,Have the tissues ready,"If you're a fan of the show, you KNOW that it just keeps getting better every year. And while the Christmas Specials are ""side"" stories, they tend to create some of the most unique moments. If you are a fan, you already know how this special ends. But if you have missed seeing it until you buy this (which you MUST do!), then have the tissues ready. The last 15 seconds make it worth every penny you will spend."
+12353,2,Good little maid.,"The Roomba does a good job of picking up most things. I am surprised how much it actually does do. I am still in the midst of Roomba-proofing my house (cords, loose rugs, etc.), but the little guy does good. Did I mention that it is fun to play with as well? It is not quicker than doing it yourself, but oh how nice not to have to do it yourself!"
+12354,1,Great review information,"This book contains great information on reviewing in Science, Math, and Verbal Ability"
+12355,1,Expected More,"If you have no clue about basic nutrition, this book is for you. If you are a healthy eater and a pretty well informed person, you don't really have to get this book unless you want confirmation that you're doing all the right things."
+12356,1,Moved problem,Product was easy to install and I will say that it stopped my pipes from bagging.Now the problem is the arrestor makes alot of noise. Basically it just moved my problem from the pipes to the arrestor.
+12357,2,Protect your lens,"Perfect to protect your lens. A small investment that goes a long way to protect your expensive lenses, well worth it."
+12358,2,Kingston is the right choice,"I installed 2 of this memory module in my VAIO, the price is very reasonable and the performance improved greatly specially when editing large video and audio files in High Definition mode (HD), my laptop turns out to be a powerful editing studio highly recommended."
+12359,1,In my humble opinion....,"This book is herendous. I bought it a few weeks ago, read the first half of it in about 1/2 hour and returned it to Barnes and Noble. Maybe it didn't apply to me since I am only 34. It states the obvious, and is written in real layman terms. Just my opinion...."
+12360,2,Does the job - does NOT screw up bass (read inside!),"I bought this and a plain male-to-male 3.5mm stereo patch cable to replace the busted cable (with in-line volume control) on my PC speakers and this simple device does the job effectively. It does NOT screw up the bass unless you plug it in backwards! The male end has to go to the audio *source*, not the destination. As far as I can tell, this is a simple passive potentiometer voltage divider. If you plug it in backwards, it no longer acts as a voltage divider and will not function properly. If you can't remember which way it goes, imagine you have an iPod and earbuds - the earbuds plug into the female plug, and the male plug goes into the iPod."
+12361,2,Kid Rock: You'll ROCK: buy this!,"Not just rockin' hard-core Rap. Turned out to be some really groovin' ballad type songs as well. The lyrics are excellent, the bass kicks, the back-up singers sweet, guests joining in (listen for Joe C) rock, an upset couple of answering messages (one from his mom)...this is HOT! Rock's here to stay! To Rock: Keep 'em coming, keep 'em tight"
+12362,2,A really good tool.,"I have to echo what others have said about this splitting axe: it's a great tool. I have used a bunch of different methods for splitting firewood, but using the Fiskars long splitting axe has been by far the most productive and enjoyable. The handle is long enough (I'm over 6'), and the edge takes sharpening very well. Pairing it with the Fiskars sharpener makes keeping it sharp a breeze. I've been splitting Douglas-Fir rounds that are 38"" across and about 2' tall--you've really got to wear your big boy pants to split them. It's still work, but it's a lot more productive with this product."
+12363,1,Minus Five Stars for Pure Garbage,"Trash, crap, garbage, stinks, disgraceful, and any other words for pure JUNK. HBO should be ASHAMED & APOLOGIZE to our brave men & women in the US military for making this big piece of pure crap. But, I'm sure HBO received tons of praise (and money) from liberals & haters of our armed forces & this country. Don't waste your time watching this sorry excuse for a documentary."
+12364,2,A combination of up-beat and mesmerizing music,'Take Me' introduces powerful themes through its original lyrics and rhythm. Ria has produced an excellent debut CD.
+12365,1,Oh for goodness sake,"The first half of this movie is great!! Then, Julia Roberts shows up to play herself and ruins the entire movie. It tried to be cute but wasn't. The ending is simply terrible. The entire concept of the big robbery turned out to be pointless. I really looked forward to this movie after the first one being so good - then was actually angry that I wasted my time and money on something so...... pathetic."
+12366,2,use for brewing,"This works perfectly for brewing five gallon batches even with the 10 psi hose. I had trouble with my first brew and was cursing the hose, but later learned that it has an automatic shut off feature that's triggered if not started just right. The automatic shutoff allows some flame through though so I was confused. Follow the directions and it'll boil 6.5 gallons in 30 minutes easy. I only gave it four starts because of the paint. I don't care that the paint came off, but why paint it in the first place. It just wastes propane and adds some tedium to your first use as you wait for it all to burn off."
+12367,1,Not good for people already in shape,"I bought this product a few months ago and honestly I should have listened to some of the reviews. This does not give you a cardio workout if you are already in shape. It does however, work the leg muscles and keeps them toned. I needed for the winter and I will probally be getting rid of it.The quaulty is poor as well. The clock that keeps track of distance etc., never worked from day 1. It is also ver noisy now and it has only been about 3 months.This product is more for people who just need to get moving, not for those who consider themselves inshape. I don't think I have sweated once using it and I rev it up in attempt to make the workout worth it."
+12368,1,previous review,"Well, I'm not sure what happened to my previous review concerning my opinion of this book. I can only guess that the folks at G.A. Sullivan cried loud enough to get it removed. However, I continue to stand by my assessment that this books SMELLS, and not like roses.From the title, I was expecting a book that covered design and implementation methods in depth. However, I was left with a feeling that the book was written more to pat themselves on the back."
+12369,2,Worth every penny and then some,"I purchased this for squirrel hunting -- figured it didn't cost very much and reviews were good.Let me tell you -- THIS IS AMAZING!Went out squirrel hunting on a cold day. Was able to roll this up so it didn't take up hardly any room in my backpack.Got to my spot, pulled this out, opened the valve to inflate and it was ready. Put it down and then sat for 90 minutes not once getting cold and actually very comfortable.I'd recommend this in a heartbeat to every hunter, or even for hard stadium seating. When you need it it's there, and when you don't it is extremely light and takes up very little room."
+12370,1,"Other than its quirkiness, this was awful!",MINOR SPOILER!!I really tried to like this movie. Original premise and all. Infidelity x 2 (pregnant waitress cheats on loser; doc cheats on decent person) + very old (but humorous) Andy Griffin does not equal a very good or very funny movie. Highly overrated.
+12371,2,Tasty!,I am a real tea drinker and Lady Grey never fails me - it is satisfying and a pleasure to enjoy any time of the day.
+12372,1,TERRIBLE MODEL,THIS MODEL AIRCRAFT IS INCOMPLETE IT IS MISSING THE WINDSCEEN AND CANOPY MY MOM IS GOING TO RETURN IT. I WAS GOING TO PRESENT THIS MODEL IN A COUNTY FAIR BUT NOW I CAN NOT.
+12373,2,The Phantom of the Opera pastiche to end all others,"Take one tragic hero, one pretty girl, add the fairytale, expand it, and you have Susan Kay's ""Phantom."" Kay has taken the original story of The Phantom of the Opera, about a deformed genius and the beautiful singer he loves, and adds to it to answer all the questions the original classic leaves behind. These questions range from how the Phantom became deformed to who is the mysterious ""Persian"" and what is his relation to the Phantom? The most interesting aspect of Kay's tale is her ingenius use of point of view. The reader is treated to six different insights into the Phantom's character, divided up into sections. This style, odd though it seems, gives the reader just the right impression that other writers have failed miserably at. This book is a must for any bibliophile who enjoys the timeless love story or anyone wishing to study character development or point of view in contemporary literature!"
+12374,1,Meant for the non professional,"Maybe I missed something but there is little in ""Stock Market Jungle"" that would be new to anyone with minimal institutional experience. Mr. Panzer, however, does a great job of having many of his ex-clients and colleagues give glowing reviews about the book...although I'd be willing to bet that most of them did not read the book."
+12375,1,Horrible writing style,"The author clearly knows his Chinese history, there's no denying that. But this was a difficult and boring read, especially for someone like myself who has a layman's interest in the subject. He writes in an unnecessarily complicated and academic prose, full of extravagantly worded concepts that probably could've been more simplistically explained. Only other history professors can fully appreciate the writing style."
+12376,1,Frayed when washed,"The towels arrived packaged nicely but when I washed them, all but one of the towels came out of the washing machine frayed! The texture is nice and fluffy but the edges are now frayed."
+12377,1,On Second thought,"Initially I thought this was a great movie and gave it 4/5 stars however as I looked though things to bring for trade credit at Movie Stop Harry Brown was the first Blu Ray to go in the pile.The good about this movie, it's is well shot and well acted Michael Caine acts his role as well as he always has. The Visual style reminded me of Oldboy. Also, Chavs get killed the violence is quite satisfyingThe Bad, Plot twists although they are hinted at at the begining of the film they are almost given away as a twist near the end of the movie as cop out to add balance between Caine and the British punks so as not to have him totally dominate the little brats.On one hand it's a satisfying movie but on the other the unnessessary plot twists, Bizarre pacing and unnecessary last minute plot twists hold this movie back.At best this is a rental at worst you're better off watching Michael Caine in something else."
+12378,2,Great collection of videos,"This is a great collection of videos. Good for new fans, as a gift, and even good for old fans. It is a great overview of the most popular work (and videos) from dm. I would help the previous commentor and give a track listing, but frankly I'm too lazy to go downstairs and get it, and he/she should learn to use a search engine. Also, very tasteless to give a bad review on a product when you are aiming at Amazon for not giving a track listing. Get it straight."
+12379,1,Only 1 freshwater scene,"Caution on this one, just got it in the mail and it has only one aquarium scene a freshwater scene. NOT a saltwater one as pictured on the box, and even the freshwater scene is not that great anyways. If your into suthing music buy it for that. 8 different tracks for one lousy scene and the pic is not to great either. There are other DVD's out there for a better price and content."
+12380,1,Problems!,"My right speaker went out almost immediately. Also, iSound was advertised as having AC power, which it did not. I'm very disapppointed! Finally, poor quality construction. I'm still trying to find a good portable unit."
+12381,2,warm warm and warm,"william joyce's illustrations make this one of my very favorite books: it is the book i always give as a baby shower gift. ANYONE can give ""goodnight moon"" but this book is special. the first 5 or 6 times i read it to my son i cried at the last line. i like how the FATHER is the one who comforts the boy (on the last page) and it is the mother who looks on lovingly. simply a wonderful, cozy book, if ever there was one."
+12382,1,Beloved Soundtrack Review,"Rachel Portman is one of my favorite film-music composers; however, I didn't like Beloved's score. I expected a pleasant orchestral music similar to other Rachel Portman's film scores, but I was very disappointed."
+12383,1,Yawn,"The Vice President is a lady. She married a jerk, he broke her heart, and now he's going to start World War III. Will she love again? Will the world blow up? Who cares?"
+12384,1,Misses the essence of the rhyme,"If you, like me, insist on enjoying all your children's books, give this book a miss. The joy of this rhyme is watching the little ones act out the teapot part. Having the teapot fly a kite in china etc... doesnt satisfy. If you want to take your child on an adventure before bed time there are plenty of better books with much better art work."
+12385,1,You have to be kidding me!,"The fact that people are saying that Robin Cook is a great writer is ridiculous! The plot for his book ""Mutation"" is the cheesiest, most far-fetched idea ever! It is very hard to take this book seriously when the plot and the characters are so horriblly drawn up. In the plot, the main character, who is an 11 year old boy, does things that are impossible to do even if he was 25 years old. The mother is also very cheesey, she is a child pyscologist who can't even figure out what is wrong with her own child.It is very hard to take this book seriously when the plot and characters are so horriblly drawn up."
+12386,2,Awesome,This pillow is simply awesome! I have Cervical DDD and don't get much sleep with this pillow I slept better than I have in the past year. So happy I purchased it. Gonna buy a spare for to have at my parents!!
+12387,2,why wasn't this ever a movie?,"What a little gem this Elmore Leonard book is. I have read most (all?) of the non-Western EL books. So many are wonderful, but the characters in this one are loads of fun. George Clooney? Are you listening?Got a comment--this WAS a movie. But not a huge move. Still think George C would be wonderful in it."
+12388,2,Book Review,"Speedy delivery, good condition. Every thing Amazon stated was correct so I'm very happy with the service."
+12389,2,Excellent,You'll have to read all 4 books. They are wonderful and full of history. I can't decide which one i love the most.
+12390,1,Very Disappointed!!!!,"Nowhere on this ad does it say you have to assemble the whole car and on top of this paint it! Imagine how embarrassed I was when my father opened his gift and found dozens of bags with small, plastic parts! GRRRR!!!"
+12391,2,space saver,"I got this towel in an effort to save space in my swimming bag. And I'm very glad I did, instead of having to drag along a big beach towel to dry myself after swimming I have a little tube with a supper absorbent cloth. In a couple of minutes I'm dry enough to get into warm clothes and drive home.I have some neoprene gloves I use for water resistance training. When I'm done I stuff it inside the towel and squeeze a couple of times and it's dry.It's soft and best of all when you are done, just stuff it inside it's tube until you need it again."
+12392,2,Great series,I have read the first 2 books in the series and am presently on the 3rd. Great series! Am looking forward to all the rest!
+12393,1,A Turkey!,"I didn't purchase this thermometer for deep frying a turkey. I just needed it for my counter top deep fryer. But as I tested the temp of the oil, I got the feeling that the thermometer's calibration was off. So I tested the temp of the oil with my Thermapen Instant Thermometer and, sure enough, the deep fry thermometer was off by 20-degrees. That would have been enough for a 3-star rating, but even worse, after calibration the deep fryer thermometer didn't hold the calibrated temp. The only positive thing I can say is that the thermometer is easy to calibrate - and it should be since calibration is required so often."
+12394,2,Great Service & Price,"This was a back to school time, they deliver right in time, good packaging and great price. I got what I want. Thank you"
+12395,1,THE USUAL ZATOICHI,"If you've seen one Zatoichi, you've seen them all; almost every one has him playing dice, and meeting a new friend who he later has to kill---both scenes are in this movie.But, they're all enjoyable enough, and this one's ok, too, though the plot is kinda confusing. The first 30 or so minutes of this movie are the best, with good direction and photography; gets a bit tedious afterwards. Does have a good battle climax, with Zatoichi once again taking on over a dozen men at the same time, unlike the wimp climax of the movie version of CONAN, in which Arnold needed help.The weirdest thing about this movie: there's not only only a song in English over a montage of Zatoichi walking---but it's the sort of song you'd expect in a ROCKY movie!"
+12396,1,"Wow, was I ever disappointed","I read so many reviews that this new Metallica CD was going to be spectacular, so maybe I had my hopes a little too high going in. Even still, this CD is remarkably average.The drums sound horrible. The snare sounds like Lars is banging on a garbage can, and there's NOT ONE GUITAR SOLO on the record. None. What happened to Kirk? It's not just the drums that sound bad, either. The vocals are strikingly harsh.I listened to the whole CD right after buying it, and when it was over, it dawned on me that I couldn't remember a single song. There's nothing memorable about ANY one of the songs. NOTHING. The songs are all longer, they're faster, they're more complex. But that doesn't make them good songs.I've never sold a CD back to one of those used CD stores, but there's a first time for everything, right?"
+12397,2,Pearl who???,"When STP's debut cd, Core, made it to the big time, music critics dogged them on how much they sounded like Pearl Jam. Well, after listening to Purple, I think the critics will shut up. This is a great album, a much different twist and more dimensions than Core. If you like 90's hard rock, this is an album you definitely need to pick up. The outstanding songs are Unglued, Interstate Love Song, Big Empty, and Vasoline."
+12398,1,Let's drug our children!,"Who wrote this book, Novartis? (The makers of Ritalin.) Let's teach our children to take drugs to curb their natural childish exuberance, I'm sure it will teach them to take drugs for every little problem all through their life. I'm sure the greedy psychologists and drug companies LOVE this book, as well as lazy teachers who would like for their students to sit through class like zombies and substandard parents who'd rather not work at parenting, but I'd hate to have the writing or promotion of this book on MY conscience."
+12399,1,Who published this?,"The book itself is filled with with typos, and a lot of the ""facts"" are incorrect. I started reading it and I thought, is it me? Am I not getting it? Nope. Apparently everyone that has written a review has stated the same. Not worth a half-star. Don't they proofread these?"
+12400,1,Not a good CD at all...,"The Backstreet Boys, well, let's just say that they lack talent. Frankly, I personally think that they suck. BSB, and N Sync, and 98*, all of those groups. I mean, I respect THEM I suppose, and I respect all you girls who like them (well, I respect your music TASTE even though I don't know WHY you'd like em in the first place...), but really-- they have no talent whatsoever. All of these groups, especially BSB have no originality. All they do is sing about these stupid love songs that some old guy penned for them. They don't play their own instruments, don't write their own lyrics, and don't choreograph their own dance moves (the fact that they dance is bad enough, not bothering to make them up themself is even worse). If you like this group, yeah, go buy the CD... But I don't know why you would, since it's just like every other male group cd out there-- sugary sweet with sappy love songs filled with fake emotion and passion that they've never experienced before."
+12401,2,Just right!,This is a perfect bag for sports. It was put to use the first day received. It is spacious and made of good quality.
+12402,1,Don't listen to the hype,"This movie was a total disapointment. It is a sad story, but the film does a poor job of getting us to care about the characters. The dialouge is poor, and overall the story is pretty weak. Save this one for a rental."
+12403,2,Great phone system,"Love this phone set. Incoming sound is great - very crisp, clear and loud. Outgoing sound is great too (I asked people I was talking to). Speakerphone on handset is amazing (I was on the phone for 45 minutes before I told one person we were on speaker the whole time and she couldnt believe it.) Battery life is great - 3 days since my last charge, and battery still shows as full. Used the phone for several hours during that time, too.Phone seemed oddly shaped at first glance. But it feels good in your hand.Features are great too. Some that I find particularly useful: can send phonebook/entries from one phone to another. Alarm feature (great for me, as my alarm doesnt wake me, but the phone always does). Ability to call (intercom) a specific handset from another one.The only cons: keypad does not light up. Single line phone (for anyone that has more than one phone line)."
+12404,1,No Battery Life,"Let me first say that I initially LOVED this phone, however - don't buy this phone! We've had it for less than a year and the charge that it will hold gets less and less every day. We're down to less than five minutes when not cradled. I'm currently replacing this phone!"
+12405,2,Porter-Cable 13700 Random Orbit Sander Pad,"This is a quality replacement part for Porter Cable.The first (original) one that came with the sander rotted apart.It should not have.Works fine, a direct replacement.No vent holes on this, not did the original."
+12406,2,SH in PA,"This product is great. In fact we got ones for a children for Christmas. Some people complain about the speaker, but since the main object is to listen to the weather and not music or news then it is fine. Why worry about beeps when inputting? Once its done its is done. Would like to see it display the county when an alert sounds if you have more than one county entered. As of now you have to guess. We get major weather from both the West & South, so it would be nice to know which area is alerting us to a problem."
+12407,1,If not for the battery...,"Theoretically, this is a great phone. It looks nice, feels good (solid and not too bulky), has reasonable sound quality and range, and a headset jack. As a bonus, it has a compartment with an extra battery in the back of the base, for those long conference calls. Perfect.Unfortunately, it suffers from one fatal flaw - the battery. When we bought the phone, we immediately noticed that the battery life wasn't exactly long; if we didn't always return the handset to the base, it would run out.Now, less than a year later, both batteries die suddenly a few minutes into the first call, no matter how long we leave it on the charger. To make matters worse, the replacement battery doesn't appear to be one of the standard ones available at local stores (which have a wide selection), so we can't replace the batteries; we're forced to buy a new phone.Don't buy this phone; it's unusable. A pity, because in every other respect this is a great product."
+12408,2,A comprehensive guide,"If you are planning to use the CotD in your campaign then this book is a must. Otherwise, the dracoliches, new monsters, dragon spells & deadly Sammaster created magic could liven any broken DM's dreams to crush an insolent party. I recommend this book because of it's possibilities, if fully explored by the right DM."
+12409,1,Why latins are the worst??!!,Movies about latins always enphasize their bad behaviors. Why can't a movie be about the good ones like FRIDA!
+12410,1,"Fogless Mirror,","I would have been ok with this product, but it is made of plastic and not metal, for the price about four times what it is worth. It has all the things on itthat anyone is looking for in a fog less mirror but, then I put put it on. Themirror's base is made of plastic, not metal, the plastic stripped out and now this mirror that cost $100.00, four times what it should cost. Its now no good to me and I still need a fog less mirror for my shower. I may have been fine with the price if it would have work. but now I have a $100.00 piece of junk and no mirror and no one is sending me a new one..."
+12411,2,Strange.,This guy can get his voice really high pitch! I like this CD..its nice to open up to different styles of music.
+12412,1,Not All Regions,I saw part one of this on YouTube and enjoyed it. Was surprised it was available as an all region DVD. It's not. My one star is for Amazon listing it improperly and not the documentary itself.
+12413,1,Trashy Style Meets Academe,"If you like articles in the National Enquirer, you will love this book. Salacious, vicious, and generally unsupported by evidence, I thought I was reading one of those attacks on President Clinton, paid for by his enemies. No understanding of Jung's philosophy or methods but filled with imagined descriptions of unproven lovemaking that seemed to have more relation to the author's own character than to anything Dr. Jung might have conceived. Trashiest style I've ever encountered in an academic book or indeed in any legitimate publication for the general public. Waste neither your time nor your money on this [book]."
+12414,1,light under a bushel,"On one hand, this CD has a warm, hypnotic, romantic quality.One the other, this guy has, I believe a real talent, but he's hiding his light under a bushel, or more specifically under schlocky strings, syrupy arrangements, and bass equalized up way too high. He has, maybe,the sound, soul (and looks) of a young Chet Baker, (listen to Funny Valentine) but he really needs to get away from these Jazz-Lite Columbia arrangements.Like to hear him with a quartet! Let's hear what he can really do!Who knows, maybe the future will be Jazz-lite. Or maybe Jazz-lite will, ultimately, bring new listeners to Jazz."
+12415,1,It had possibilities,"Reilly's first published novel, ""Ice Station"" was pretty good. Fast paced, good characters, poor plot, but who cared, the action was wild.In ""Temple"" Matt decided to throw out any attempt to base his book in the ""real"" world. The BASIC story is excellent, but the plot twists, conspiracies, and bad guys (3 separate groups) leave the reader shaking their head, wondering how stupid does the author think we are?The Hero, Race, a quiet university language professor, seems to need a cape and super-strength to pull off half the stunts he himself can't believe he's doing. Even the wildest Willis, Schwarzenegger or Ford movie can only do a third of the stunts ""Temple"" slaps us with in the first half of the book.Matt, here's a hint, if your own characters don't believe what's happenening or what they're doing, why should we?p.s. Stay away from the military conspiracies side stories, they really ruin your work."
+12416,2,Gray Matters,"This is a strong, unique debut from such a super talent. Macy Gray growls with that she-ra soul, that Tina-Earth-Kitt, lazy groove Billie Holiday in a funked out, disco-ready, rhymthic blues sorta way. Macy may not be for everyone but that doesn't mean this sista is a one hit wonder. With the radio play of superifical, dry, booty songs, Macy Gray is a refreshing taste for those who want to hear some soul. For those who wanna hear that skreeching voice that sounds almost unreal, possibly surreal. This is for those who wanna expand in what they call music. Who don't pry themselves by the standards of what is current and pop. This for those who want something with spice, class, sass, and appeal. Macy Gray soars with her brand of old-school remixed with new school funk. That neo-funk, that makes your favorite 70's albums proud."
+12417,2,How could this book get less than 5 stars,I loved it. This is my second time reading it and I thought it was great. Loved Dallie - the overbearing jerk. Ms Fancy Pants - what a girl - dusted herself off and got on with life. Please read this book. It is so much more than any of the one star reviews. OK it may be an oldie but I don't think it is at all dated. She even made the golf seem interesting - I was on the edge of my seat at the Classic!!
+12418,2,Everything you want from a greatest hits package,For me disc 2 was pretty much all new songs. These were great and brought back the classic sound of U2 so greatly missed
+12419,2,Something new....,"I picked this book up off of the shelf at the bookstore I shop at,and I went home not knowing who this guy was at all. I read the book,and all I can say is that I loved it. It was different then stuff that I normally read,but when I went back to the bookstore I picked up a few of Saul's other books...I love the characters he creates,and the story plots are all so odd. It was slightly creepy at parts,but it was still entertaining. I do not regret reading it,but I doubt I would read it again."
+12420,2,"This is more than a ""self-help"" book.","I think you'll agree after reading only a few chapters that this is more than a ""self-help"" book. It delivers a clear & concise message about the core values of success as well as the more subtle civilities oftentimes forgotten. I have recommended & endorsed this book not only to new hires at our firm but also to more senior colleagues. Coach Jarvis and Mr. Peck should be commended for providing invaluable insight in a timely book that is delightful to read."
+12421,2,Great for learning about horses!,"My daughter has been riding for about 3 years now and she was so excited to see this Christmas morning. Of course that was one of the first things she wanted to play. Her grandma and I played and I was surprised at the amount of things I have learned just from taking her to her lessons! I'm sure there is a way to alter the game so there are more questions like Trivial Persuit but that was my only problem with the game. There isn't questions asked every move. But otherwise, it is an excellent game. I would definately recommend it!"
+12422,2,Relief at last!,"This product definitely makes your breathing excellent. But during the wintertime it may be better to not use this.I received mine during the winter and although I felt great after using it, I found that my nasal passages were very dry the morning after and hurt. This might be due to the salt that could be left in your nasal passages since you never flush with water afterward.First time using this it felt as if I was drowning, I guess something in your nose signals that ""drowning"" message to be sent to your brain so it takes some getting used to. When blowing your nose you must also be very gentle as hard blows will tinker with your ears and make them uncomfortable.Overall provides great immediate relief BUT temporary and takes 5-10 minutes. Nonetheless it did what it stated it would and did it very well... too bad the effects don't last forever..."
+12423,1,what went wrong?,"It seemed like it would be a smashing album. But after a listen to it i felt i had been ripped off 17$. The mixing is slow dull and lets you fall asleep. Disc 2 is simply bad, the annoyingly sample filled carnival xiii hurts to listen too, With west on the 27th being the only highlight. This disc has parks in wilson is slow mellow form. Disc 1 is a little better. slightly faster. but still nothing impressive."
+12424,2,Excellent and realistic.,"I have read parts of this book, and that which I have read has been really fun. There are handy, practical suggestions for making life at home interesting for both you and your children. It is definitely written from a Christian perspective, however one that many denominations would be more or less compatible with. If you are curious/positive about Christianity but don't consider yourself a formal believer, it will also probably work OK for you."
+12425,2,the best,"the game is like so awsome and cool!the first time i played it(at a friends house),i knew i had to buy it.As a proud xbox gamer if i rated it on a scale of one through 10,it receves a 90!!!!buy this game!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
+12426,2,Great Book!,I bought this book for my son and he loved it. This book has great information! I would definitely recommend this book for those in the cattle business. Great Book!!
+12427,2,Large supply,I have used other anti-seize permatex products but I had never seen the nickel so I wanted to buy a large container and I would have this probably forever.
+12428,1,wow,This product does not bring the video cable for the Tv. It has no controller in the box if you order
+12429,2,Excellent Live Set from a great American songwriter,A great set from John Hiatt backed by the always solid Guilty Men..including Elvis's current bass player Davey Faragher...Even though it's from a concert over 10 years ago...still sounds current... A great selection of classic Hiatt songs and the typically great quality video and sound...
+12430,1,Pearls of the Pacific,"The material is there for an excellent book,however, this is really a poorly written book.It is very difficult to follow, as it jumps from subject to subject and never completes any of them.As a career USN sailor,many of the ships I served in often visited Subic Bay in the mid 1950's, and my family and I lived there from 1975through 1978. We lived on the base, but often visited Olongopo and saw the things the writter tries to describe.This is just a very poor attempt to describe some of the events that occured in SubicBay."
+12431,2,"Raise your voice, too!","A gathering of voices well known in the library field and some -- like Pat Schroeder and Barney Frank -- known everywhere. Each contributor chose a quotation that offered courage, inspiration, or strength in the face of adversity, to keep the Word free, open, and accessible. It is interesting to note how often Thomas Jefferson and James Madison turn up, but the essayists quoted writers from Toni Morrison to Jimmy Walker, from Pogo to Audre Lorde, from Voltaire to Barbara Tuchman. As a contributor, I found my voice in a quote from Ursula K. Le Guin. Give this to your library board, to your Friends group, to your Teen Readers. Talk about it. Think about it."
+12432,1,Empty babble,"Severgnini's writing is more about being ""clever"" in style and phrases than actually saying anything. What he writes about Italy could apply to almost any western country; the book is empty and without insight."
+12433,2,MUY BUENO!,"Canciones como El Leon y Desapariciones son realidades de America Latina traducidas por LFC a un idioma entre ska, reggae, funk, etc. para que se le peguen hasta a aquellos que no las quieran oir. Son canciones que nos hacen pensar y aparte tienen un ritmazo, clasico de los fabulosos! Hay algunas piezas ochenteras que no estan tan tan buenas pero se les perdona porque el 90% del disco es excelente."
+12434,2,My daughter loves this!,My daughter loves this. It has been one of her favorite toys. She sleeps with it and feels protected with this plush toy. I would recommend and buy again. Shipped on time and exactly as described.
+12435,2,They Rock... You've never heard of them...,"I was reccomended to Chronic Future by a friend so I checked them out, I downloaded a couple tracks(Legally) to give a listen too, and I was pleased to say the least!!To try to sum up Chronic Future is no easy task. The best you can try to do is label them as a strange concoction mix of Linkin Park and Hoobastank. Combining skilfully Hard Rock, with a slight trace of metal, and screaming, and then some catchy pop chourses? Odd, no?Some of my favorite songs from this album have to be New York, NY, Thank You, and Wicked Games."
+12436,2,Family favorite,"This cd is one of my favorites for Christmas, I love the arrangements and these boys can really sing!!! O Holy Night is my avorite track on this CD"
+12437,1,Wrox keeps getting worse.,"I was hoping this would be the sequel to the awesome beginners asp database book by John Kauffman. It was not even close. This book trys to cover so many platforms that it ends up not covering anything very well. The examples are terrible and confusion will set in after the second chapter. I have found that with Wrox books, if there is more than one person on the cover, then it will stink up the place."
+12438,2,Works great!,"Great rail. We are currently using it on an Ikea bed where the frame comes up around the mattress. The rail is really wedged in there and once the mattress (which weighs a ton) sits on it, this rail is not moving. So, we're not really able to use the drop side feature but it works great the way we have it. Very sturdy. Thinking about getting another for the other side. Definitely long enough for a Queen or King size bed. Reasonably priced!"
+12439,2,Miracle supplement: Soloray Saw Palmetto and Pygeum,My husband reported a difference in 1 week. He had to get up to urinate in the middle of the night every night. He now sleeps through the night. Urine stream is now consistently strong with no residual leakage - product is a MIRACLE!
+12440,1,Didn't like this...AT ALL.,"I said I was going to be honest in all reviews, and yes, I kinda clunkered on this one. I hate this CD. Simply put. They can't sing, and the songs are boring.I'm sorry I bought this CD, and other people might not like me saying that, but it's my opinion. I listen to power metal extensively and there is MUCH better stuff out there like Symphony X, Nightwish or Sonata Artica.Don't buy this, though, you might like it. I'd definitely listen to it first."
+12441,2,Lucky Goodwill bargain! $1.00!!,"I bought this candle holder in 2003 for $1 at a local Goodwill. I never realized how much it was worth until today. I love it. It looks great, like a ball of ice. Mine is a bit cloudy, not as clear as the one pictured but I don't feel that takes away from the looks. I really like this but I don't think I'll be buying anymore at $35 each. By the way, they also look great with electronic votive candles."
+12442,1,"Beware, absolute junk","I bought it in local Lowe's and replaced two already with the same problem. One or more chuck's teeth got broken inside and a bit can not be centered afterwords. Both times chuck failed at the very first job. I am just doing some work here and there around the house, not a pro contractor. Don't even think about buying one."
+12443,1,Not so good at explaining concepts,"I am a hard-core JSP developer. I do not own this book. However, one of my friends show me two paragraphs of the book that he did not understand.These 2 paragraphs were poorly written.""Chapter 12.2 Including at Rquest Time"".It is talking about action. One sentence said,""On the other the page has been already been translated into a servlet by request time, so the included files cannot contain JSP.""The words ""cannot contain"" is very misleading. It should say something like, "" cannot make the including JSP contains the *source* of included JSP."""
+12444,2,Great for inside growing!,I have orchids growing inside and use this for lighting. I liked it so much I bought another one! I received it quickly too!
+12445,2,Very good drama series,"The overall storyline is excellent as well as the casts, while the CG could use some improvement. I think this is by far the best drama series I've ever seen, but beware though this version has some quality control issues. If you can find a different version out there, I suggest you get that one because several discs have layer transitioning errors and read errors."
+12446,1,Wingdings and other crap,"This books looks sleek, if you judge it by its cover, but that is the only ""slightly"" interesting tattoo in the whole thing. The Book looks like the author simply took Microsoft Word Fonts such as Wingding and others with symbols, and pasted them onto his pages. Its all a load of crap, not worth the paper its printed on. A HUGE disappointment."
+12447,2,Good book,"I would recommend this book to anyone. It was a little drawn out in parts, but overall it was well written and a good, encouraging read."
+12448,2,he is a hotshot with this album,"Shaggys last album was not great, but he comes back tremendously, his top 3 greatest hits are here in order, it wasnt me, angel and keepin it real. boombastic is alright but keepin it real is not on that album."
+12449,2,Singing voice that mind gets warm,It is a famous piece of music collection which keeps being eternally heard.
+12450,1,Staywell pet door is a piece of junk.,"If you try to install this piece of junk, all you will end up with is an ugly hole in your door, hours wasted, and your extreme anger. It is simply impossible to cut a hole to the exact tolerances required to make this work properly. It doesn't even come with the proper screws to hold it in place properly. I bought one smaller one for my cat and this one for my dog. I have high-quality wood working equipment and I still couldn't make it work properly. This company is a bunch of swindlers - any one who tried to install this would immediately realize it is an unworkable design."
+12451,1,Don't be fooled!,"The cover shows a cute, silly picture of a dog. I was expecting greeting card type goofy pictures and captions. The pictures were okay, the captions were tasteless, sick and far from funny. What a waste."
+12452,1,Joke doesn't even begin to describe this movie,Where to begin? Hmmm...how about everywhere. Was this written by an MTV teenie bopper? I find it hard to believe that anyone could anything appealing or enjoyable about this movie. Sooooo ridiculously bad. Still can't believe I sat through it.
+12453,2,Holds a razors edge & snaps open,"What more could you ask for? Reversable pocket clip (I did reverse mine for left-handed carry), flick your thumb and it's open, holds a razors edge ... I could go on and on; but this is the right pocket knife for me. I've owned two of Ken Onion's Leeks, liked and lost them both. I don't know, there's just something different, something ""good"" about the Blur, maybe it's the size difference between the Blur and the Leek, maybe the Blur just feels right in my hand, maybe it's a combination of all the above ... I like it!"
+12454,2,"Great, innovative and hardhitting dark metal!","Ah, what can I say??? MANES is a one of a kind band, great structure and a VERY raw vocal. slow to mid to fastpaced metal in the vein of Limbonic Art and Thorns etc, only better. This is great! I urge you to get this!!!"
+12455,1,Only buy this if you are a professional painter!,"This book is great if you already know how to paint and only want to paint exactly what they have: an old lunch box, and even older T.V., a sink, a couple of swings, a table, a gourd, a brick, etc. They give you the pattern (in most cases) but do not give you any tips on how to actually paint. I was expecting more general ideas on how to paint household items like frames, vases, candleholders, etc... If you are thinking about buying this book, I would check it out in the library first and see if it is for you!"
+12456,1,"Cheap, shoddy...","Bought this for my wife to use at work on her desk (not to carry around). While it does keep a frozen bottle colder, it began to fray and the insulation outer cover ripped at the seams. It is a good example of slipshod workmanship and material.Many reviewers note they love it, but ""I've only had it a few weeks"" is the common thread. Expect it to last only a month or two, and probably less if you use it while hiking or other outdoor activity.In sum: Don't bother."
+12457,2,The best thing that happened this summer,The book was great!!! I was up all night to read it. The book was amusing and exciting. When you read the book it's like you're acutally in the story. This book involves more of Harrry's teenager social life but I can't tell you what happens. The characters are better than ever (including the villains). This particular book will explain a lot of questions and wonders. Once you read the book it will be almost impossible to stop reading.
+12458,1,Doesn't recognize any video formats,"Don't buy this for your videos because it failed to recognize any of the supported formats that were listed. I used both the e-mail and live chat support that Kodak offers and all they could suggest was to reload the firmware. It had the latest version, but I reloaded it anyway to no avail. The next suggestion was a 1-800 number to send it in for repairs, which wasn't available on Saturday morning at 9AM.Wouldn't recommend it."
+12459,2,Nero and Archie out of the NY realm,What is not to like? Archie and Nero do their thing...the characters that Stout has created keep me reading and re-reading. The accusation of murder against Archie reveals the worst in small town rural life. Not at all like Norman Rockwell. That only exists for natives that like that sort of thing. Enjoy.
+12460,2,Finally! Recognition,"With so many different videos on SEALS, Delta, Green Berets, Force Recon, etc. it is all to easy to forget that the Air Force has elite units of their own. This video does a nice job of showing what a PJ is, what they do and how they train. The great emphasis is on humanitarian rescue with little on the covert, Combat Search and Rescue/Special Ops missions. With a washout rate of over 70% - higher than any other US elite unit- we get to see just how special these men are. A must for any US special forces collection!"
+12461,1,AWESOME,"this book is great. if you read it you can begin to understand that there are actually hundreds of people out there just like you. fighting with addiction, family, and relationships. i read this book all the time because it relates so well with what me and my friends deal with all the time. this book is almost as addicting as marijuana! if you pick it up theres no putting it down! read it!"
+12462,1,Good but outdated,"This book needs a complete overhaul.Markets have changed, tactics have changed and the whole internet and technology boom has had a tremendous effect on markets. There are other books on trading strategy that are more current, and ones that focus on specific markets...such as stocks or currencies. You would be better off with something updated. Generally, from a 'big picture' point of view the book still holds up...but you can find general big picture info at the numerous websites offering free education and lessons.A new, up to date, well tested and proven version of this is needed."
+12463,1,loud... and that's about it,"Limp Biskit's appeal is somewhat confusing. While they seem to be able to write intelligent lyrics, they mostly scream them unintelligibly. They're certainly hard and heavy, but almost totally lacking in melody. Crossing rap with metal was a good idea, but, frankly, this is a poor execution."
+12464,2,Best in the Business,I bought this after using another brand with no interest from my crabs. Within a matter of minutes the crabs were going crazy over it! Hands down the best food on the market.
+12465,2,Great detail of mental challenges,"Overall, a very great good detailing her Journey. There are not many stories/accounts of day-to-day events, but more of an overall description of her mood and feelings during the journey. I felt that too much time was spent on the political message describing the treatment of the Aboriginal people. Worth the effort though, as it is a short book that tells a very unique story."
+12466,2,A great Spanish test,I bought this book to help me prepare for the MTEL in Spanish because the other books did not get good ratings. It is a great book for preparing for the format of the exam although the real exam was shorter and heavily loaded with cultural and historical questions. The study guide at the beginning of the book is most invaluable because a lot of the questions are taken from there.
+12467,1,Ugh,"I picked up this book at a bookstore because I needed a book to read on a 6 hour flight and had already read all the Mary Higgins Clark novels available. Hoping that writing talent was genetic, I picked up this book. Quite frankly, it made me want to jump out of the plane. MARY HIGGINS CLARK FANS: do NOT assume that just because CHC is the daughter of a brilliant writer that she is a brilliant writer herself, because her books are shallow and awful. Terrible plot, terrible storytelling, and the ""mystery"" isn't mysterious at ALL."
+12468,2,A blast from the past,"I enjoyed the latest installment of Emergency! It brings me back to simpler time in my life. Seing the stuff that they went through and seeing how much has changed in the medical profession is interesting. I worked ER's several years, and the changes in treatment and who they can save is so phenominal. Just an enjoyable bunch of episodes. MAA"
+12469,1,"UNFORTUNATELY, A WASTE OF TIME","Expected much more from this book. Unfortunately, doesn't say anything new. Just some old recyled ideas with a flashy title. Save your money."
+12470,1,Dont buy it.,"I lost two headsets with this case. The first was while walking in the city, the headset fell out of the unsecured top of the case somewhere in a four block area never to be seen again. The second time I lost the case and all as there is only a flimsy clip on the back instead of a loop and it fell right off of my belt while walking to lunch. On top of it all the case doesn't adequately fit the 510 in the first place. The headset is too long and pokes out of the bottom distorting the bottom of the case or is pushed out over the small lip at the top of the case."
+12471,1,a drunken journey through the mind of a crazy women,"Please don't read this book, it's awful. It has no flow and takes you in every direction but the one that might make sense. If you feel you must read this ""masterpeice,"" take acid before every sitting."
+12472,2,A very powerful little book.,"One-hundred short 2-page ideas/suggestions that really open your eyes about the way your mind works. Gets into the psychology of why we think and do such stupid and self-defeating stuff, and shows you a better way to handle everyday situations.If you're stressed-out or angry at anything, this book will put your problems in perspective and put your mind at peace. I plan on keeping it handy to refer to whenever I'm in a lousy mood. I found (and dog-eared) several pages that described me and my attitudes exactly. There are several people I know at work who really NEED this book.Highly recommended!"
+12473,2,The Agony and The Ecstasy... I love it.,Alright i'm not gonna give it a 5 since I didn't read the book. but I think it is the most brilliant of movies about Michelangelo. and I've always respected every role Charlton Heston has done.plan and simple. I love this film.
+12474,1,Absolute garbage,"Bought this to replace an egg slicer of similar design which had lasted for many, many years.What a mistake.As with others, the wires broke within several uses, and it's never seen anything other than eggs, strawberries, and mushrooms.Avoid, and go with the much sturdier all-metal version."
+12475,1,Waste of money,"This unit is a joke.They explain it may take up to 10 minutes to get going, which is completely understandable, however the mist this unit puts out is minimal. One reviewer compares it to the mist of a cup of coffee. I am not even sure its that much. Perhaps a small cup of coffee.If you are in a very very small room, I can see it may be a workable low cost solution, however this is certainly not a useful device for anyone with sinus, reflux or respiratory problems (I have all three) in a medium to larger size bedroom that needs help to sleep and rest.My wife purchased this, and doesn't know much about air quality, so I can't fault her for not knowing. This is going back to Target and I'm going to order something better from Amazon."
+12476,1,unit fell apart after 1 week,lock split in half after one week. locking mechanism failed to lock securely. lock is poorly designed. can be damage easily
+12477,2,Best Sibelius Violin Concerto Recording Ever,"This Sibelius-Kavakos recording when it was originally released in 1991 was voted:-""Best Concerto Recording 1991"" (GRAMOPHONE Award)-""Record of the year 1991"" (The U.K. Sibelius Society)-""Pick of the year "" (Classic CD, the U.K.)- Records of the year 1991 ( Helsingin Sanomat)- The First ever Gold Record of orchestral music: 25.000 copies sold in Finland (8.12.1992)"
+12478,1,Worked for 1 day,"The product was received in a timely manner. I was able to use it for one day ok, on the second day part of the screen went black and could not correct the problem so I returned it."
+12479,1,Trash,"Pros:It looked nice when I plugged it in. Thats all.Cons:The first stick I received none of the buttons worked on the stick. I spent 6hrs trying to get it to work different drivers, different computers same result.I returned this stick to Amazon and they were very helpful and sent out a new one 2 days later.I plugged in the second stick and the joystick lit up for a second then went dead. No response from the stick at all.Saitek customer support is dismal and only suggest it is your problem or you can pay to ship it to them for repair.In conclusion I am returning this for a CH Fighterstick they are built solid as a rock and will last for many years."
+12480,2,Sleeping Beauty,What a wonderful movie. Reminded me of watching when I was a kid and so happy to have found it again for my kids.
+12481,1,Peter and Paul DVD,"My husband and I were not especially impressed by the performance of Anthony Hopkins. I felt he spoke too fast and did not do our scriptures justice in his portrayal. The film itself was good, as difficult as it would be to include the entire Book of Acts into 2 hrs. It's worth a look see, although it is by far NOT the greatest Biblical movie out there."
+12482,2,Satisfied Customer,This book arrived early and was in the condition stated by the seller. I am very pleased with the purchase and will buy from them in the future. This book is helpful especially in today's world with dealing discipline of our children. The times we live in are tough and we need all the help we can get to be effective parents.
+12483,2,Plain Speaking,The words of Ed Fowler are a welcome change from the ususal gobbledegook that is heard today. I would enjoy reading Ed's observations even if I weren't a knife collector. Part two of Mr. Fowlers life quest is a continuation of the first edition and there's nothing wrong with that. It's refreshing to have a craftsman divulge the discoveries that has resulted in what I think is the perfect working knife.
+12484,2,Presto 05450 Dual Daddy,This is a must have in my kitchen I am the provider of chicken wings in the family and the neighborhood especially during football season. I couldn't do that without this deep fryer.
+12485,2,Lens safety,"I am Deployed to Kosovo, I feel that (if anything) the lens adapter is well worth the cost for the simple fact I dont have to baby the camera in a hostile fire zone. I can throw the camera down in an instant if the mission dictates without having to worry about damaging the lens assembly. I like that the camera if the second adapter is on the camera doesn't lengthen the camera to speak of. I have to keep the camera in everything from a back pack that is thrown into a truck and setting on the radio system in the truck. I feel the lens adapter will save me alot of money in repairs on the lens assembly in the future."
+12486,2,Well written page-turner,Cynthia Voigt grabs your interest and holds you spellbound as she draws you into the midst of these abandoned youth. With HOMECOMING she has started us on an adventure that leaves us eager to pick up the next in the series. The reader laughs and cries with DICEY and her younger siblings. I plan to tell all my friends about this great read.Beverly J Scott
+12487,2,ramp,The rail is very good. but the ramp isn't that good for begginers. I would suggest getting a less steep ramp to practice on. I only had to bolt the ramp down the rail was fine.
+12488,2,"Beautiful, Haunting, a Must-Have","This music is, for lack of a better term, cinematic. When playing Shadow of the Colossus, it feels for a few brief moments like one is the star of an epic film. The music brings all these feelings and memories rushing back; the terror of a behemoth's hoof hovering just overhead, the fear of losing one's grip whilst dangling two stories above the ground, the shaking of the earth, the whirling of the wind. SotC was very much an experience. The music made the experience even more powerful.This music is so satisfying and inspiring... an unparalleled orchestral score, and most certainly a must-buy."
+12489,1,I wish I could give this 0 stars...,"I used to be a fan of Avril when I was younger. Now I'm 13 and I relize how FAKE she is! She CAN'T sing. I heard her live on TV once, and her voice is so horrible, the band is louder than Avril's voice! The songs are really bad, lyrics are horrible, and now I won't even listen to the CD anymore. Take my advice: Avoid this CD and Avril Lavigne's garbage. If you want to listen to a female singer who can sing with a gorgeous voice, plays guitar beautifully, writes her own songs, and has wonderful lyrics, I recommend the album ""Pieces of You"", by my favorite singer, Jewel."
+12490,2,More heat from Ro and Mike Dean,"This new LP from Z-Ro is heat. If you like ""Life of Joseph P. .."" you will be impressed. The production value sounds better and the vibe is more upbeat than the last one which was real heavy and emotional. Some songs, like the song with Ashanti, are not good, but when Z-Ro works with Mike Dean the result is always dope. These two have a good chemsitry because Mike Deans sound is real melodic and Z-Ro has a good singing voice for the hooks. He sings a bit like Isaac Hayes. Overall I don't think the material is as solid end to end musically as the last album, but it has a better sounding lower end; I think they paid more attention to the mastering this time. He has a rap style similar to a mix of Bun B and Tupac, he can spit. Z-Ro went to jail shortly after the last album came out and he didn't get a chance to promote it right. This album has songs that will probably appeal to a wider audience and it will be good to see Z-Ro get the respect he deserves"
+12491,2,Little bites make a meal of fantasy,"Have you ever rolled their eyes at yet another peasant boy turning out to be the long-lost High King, or wondered how knights who ride in full plate for days go to the toilet? This cruel little book is for you. Cliches are dissected with a placid demeanour and a small, sharp knife. You'll never look at a David Eddings book the same way again. The ""Tough Guide"" is best read in little bites, interspersed with your favourite epic fantasy series, or its tremendous wittiness becomes a little overwhelming. Read. Enjoy. Develop a mean smirk."
+12492,1,Couldn't get past the taste,I tried the Tea straight and in coffee. I just couldn't get past the taste and ended up throwing the remainder away.
+12493,2,"Rock/Pop, sk8r attitude","First off, the only things Avril and Brittney have are they are both in the rock/pop category and they are both young. Brittney is much more pop, and sings, dances, and looks pretty. I complement Avril for writing her own songs and being pure to herself. Her songs come from the heart, and she knows how to rock. I wouldn't consider her music style in the sk8r category, but she definately has the attitude.I would compare her more to such performers as 4 Non-Blondes, Sheryl Crow, and Jewel. And I think her future lies in being seen in their category and with a slightly older audience than Brittney. If she's able to keep up with the times without selling out, I believe she will have a great lifelong career ahead of her.The album sounds great. Keep it up, girl!"
+12494,1,A Good Idea but a Flawed Product,"Wow, this is totally disappointing. The concept is fantastic, but the decals are NOT colorfast. I have had mine in the window for seven months, and the red color is completely gone."
+12495,2,Great movie,"I am an absolute fan of the Crow series. I own all 4 movies. Although the 1st one is a classic, this movie is by far the best of the sequels"
+12496,2,Trip down memorey lane,"Great to see the Live Aid concert again - to remember what it was like when we all believed we could change the world - and for a short time, we actually did"
+12497,2,no words for how beautiful,"This CD is amazingly beautiful and I can't believe the little price I paid for something so absolutely priceless! All of it is stunningly gorgeous; but let me just say, I was in tears during The Circle of Life! I'd give it a million stars."
+12498,1,Wife hates it,Wife loves the original Curls Rock Amp....this product does not define her curls at all..just makes them look flat and dried out. She is going back to the original.
+12499,1,"Fair pictures, bad service from Kodak.","I have a Palm Vll and had a very hard time doing a ""hot sync"" to my desktop after taking pictures with the Palm Pix. Each and every time, my Palm locked up and I had to do a soft reset. Three weeks have passed since I informed Kodak about the problem, and still no response from them. I am going to return the Palm Pix and purchase a digital camera from anyone but Kodak!"
+12500,2,Like the Springfield Thermometer,"We've only been using it for a few weeks at a school but it seems like it's pretty close to the correct temperature that another thermometer I have reads. I like how it has the humidity so you can figure out the ""feels like"" temperature and having the wind chill reading is good too."
+12501,2,"Las Vegas, De Niro, Pecsi....Whats not to love?","A great movie and a great DVD. Other than Goodfellas, this movie is tops. The acting is great, with unexpected great performances from Sharon Stone and James Woods. Just wish they offered a Pan & Scan version."
+12502,1,The Lingerie Was The Star,"About the only worthwhile thing about this incredibly bad movie was the short scene that involved red lingerie. Fast forward to that, watch it in slow motion a few times, eject movie, you're done. You didn't miss anything. Best laugh? Female negotiator jumps out onto the ledge-- yeah, right...Improbable plot. Wooden acting. Impossible stunts. Crappy direction. Incompetent editing. Great body under lingerie. I will say that the Blu-ray had a great picture quality.Third rate TV movie."
+12503,2,Excellent value,"My vet wanted 6.50 a tablet for the same thing. I have 16 dogs and all had fleas recently and the tapeworms were showing up. I just wormed them all on Saturday morning and on Sunday and Monday when I checked, there was not a single egg segment in anyone's poop. I am thrilled! I will reworm them in 3 weeks to be sure we have gotten them all. I ended up giving 40 tablets for a cost of around $46.00 instead of $195.00....I am thrilled!"
+12504,1,Serious disappointment,"I was on the fence as to whether to get this book, because I only get one of the two series it combines (""The Ultimates."" I've tried ""Ultimate X-Men"" and found it to be a disapointment.) Still, the writer promised there would be ramifications for both series, so I gave it a shot... and was seriously let down.There are definite ramifications if you've been reading ""Ultimate X-Men,"" but not much has changed for the reader of ""The Ultimates."" Even if you're into ""X-Men,"" there isn't much meat here. You've got four issues of ill-defined fights with little plot or intrigue other than ""Magneto is bad and the Ultimates think the X-Men are working with him so there must be lots of fighting."" This does not make for good comic book storytelling.In truth, I would have given this book one star, but I bumped it up a notch for the climactic battle between Captain America and Wolverine -- the way it turned out was something I've always longed to see."
+12505,2,Entertaining movie eventhough its under the documentary section,"I found this movie entertaining, funny, and educational. I would never have guessed that abortion rights could be linked to crime. Now I want to read the book!"
+12506,1,Dont Bother,"Hawthorne Heights suck. the act like they are dark but their lyrics suck. And so far I've been wondering what is the deal with the telephone being off the hook in every video. its also on this albums cover. come on its not awesome to see a telephone off the hook, get that in your heads. Your music Sucks!"
+12507,1,"Interesting idea, ""but""...","... disappointing. For this record to work it needed a lot more imagination in the orchestral arrangemnts, they become just some pleasant but tepid and flat sonic wallpaper behind Leon's voice. He has released a lot of new music lately, if you're looking for newer stuff, ""Guitar Blues"" is a much more inspired effort. If you're new to Leon Russell, your collection should start with ""Leon Russell and the Shelter People"" or the great ""Mad Dogs and Englishmen"" (Joe Cocker's record but Leon steals the show.) This record of standards is just for the completist who wants to own the entire Leon Russell catalog."
+12508,2,Great Book!,"This is one of the very best books.Ever. I started reading it when I was 10 and I'm 12 now. This is kind of like a prelude to the rest of the stories, but you have to read this book to understand the rest. This is even better than Harry Potter! And that's saying something. I definatly recommend the ""His Dark Matirials"" seris to anyone over 11. When I read it I thought it was a little scary. Overall, Phillip Pullman is my favorite author because he is so decriptive.The story takes place in England (I won't say were)and the main character's name is Lyra Belequa. That is all I will say so as not to spoil anything. I hope you will all enjoy this seris."
+12509,2,A Treat for the Uninitiated,"This was my introduction to the amazing vocal capabilities of Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan. I went with this because I am already a fan of Ustad Sultan Khan, so I knew I was starting on semi-familiar ground instead of just diving into this. I don't understand the words, but I can feel them. Track 2, as stated by the more knowledgable reviewers, is simply amazing! Apart that the emotion of his voice alone can bring you to tears, I want yyou to think about something for just a moment. The piece is over 30 minutes long and he is singing for nearly the entire time.Digest that for a minute.Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan was recommended by a guy at a local store when I started talking to him about Indian music. I still need to go thank him for this suggestion."
+12510,2,Better than the original,"It pains me to say that. But these instrumentals are much better than the versions with vocals. Sorry dude, but you're not a great singer. ""Clean Living"" was awesome. But that doesn't mean you have to sing on every track. Stick to what you do best: making beats. For other vocalists. Or, as is the case here and on most of his best older songs, instrumentals. If you didn't like 'The Third Hand' before, give this one a shot. I consider it the better album."
+12511,2,xp sp3 Ok,"Best space sim around since Elite in 1989. Neutonion flight model actually give the sensation of 3d movement. Not easy to jump into, but short to get the hang of. Run fine on latest xp sp3, but when alt-tab 'ing, you need to switch back to program, then (win key) (click on black) X2 and it restores just fine. SAVE ONLY AT THE LUCRESEA'S BASE. Get the patches as well."
+12512,1,Night,"This story has been told so many times and this did not add anything new that hasn't been told many times before. I know this was his life, but many people have had this life."
+12513,2,Mo's Best Book!,"My children and I love this book! I don't understand why it isn't more popular. It is a beautiful story about friendship, and it is also very funny. I have a 4, 7 and 8 year old, and it has been their favorite book for years. Leonardo doesn't know how to be a scary monster (which is why he is a ""terrible"" monster). He finally finds Sam and scares the tuna salad out of him. The only problem is that Sam starts to cry, so Leonardo decides to be his friend instead. Really lovely story and very funny!"
+12514,2,"Good, But Not Perfect","Gyo Vol. 2 has some great moments as well as some weak ones. The story continues and builds to a head, but in the process there were a couple of chapters that seemed out of place and pointless (the circus chapters). The whole story line for Gyo is excellent though in the ""what the heck is the author smoking?"" Which is the reason I love Junji Ito's stuff. Gyo isn't quite as powerful as Uzumaki in my opinion, but also quite good.The first of the two short stories also included sucks. Completely forgettable. The second though, is a master piece in my opinion. Probably the best part of the book, and that's not to knock Gyo at all either. The one thing about the last short story is I feel the last page is unnecessary..."
+12515,2,Hands Free,Life in the 'hands free' zone has gotten better. I am enjoying my new Discovery 655 Bluetooth. The sound is very clear on my end and the person I'm talking to. I like having the option of the ear loop.I'm very happy with my purchase!
+12516,2,SMASHING,I absolutely luv No Authority expecilly Danny! I reasonitly got to see them in concert! They were smashing! I bought their CD and luved every song on it! My best pal Amanda is good friends with their manager and she said that next time i see her she will give me his number! Tootles
+12517,1,Enormously Dissapointing,"Pete Conrad had a fairly colorful style about him, part cowboy - part engineer - full time iconoclast. However, these traits do not come thru in this book. The writing does not convey the dynamics of the man, so ultimately it becomes little more than a 'just the facts' biography.While I doubt any astronaut book came come close to capturing the human story of space Michael Collins' ""Carrying The Fire"", this book had a chance since it focused upon one of the truly unique characters in the space program. So am immensely dissapointed at the final product."
+12518,1,Compliance,Not worth the time to watch it.Don't even bother watching.A compleat waste of time.Stupid !!!!!What more can you say.
+12519,2,I liked it,"We read this for a book club. It is an interesting take on the 3 magi. It is just a story, not the literal story but an enjoyable read!"
+12520,1,irritating. awful. failure.,"this book is MISERABLY BAD. the first half is ok...but the second part is so terribly, off-the-wall, ridiculously bad that i couldn't even finish it. the characters are supremely one dimensional. the story is boring. the actions in the second half are cartoonish and, frankly, insulting. it sounds like something someone wrote in a high school creative writing class. i hated every character in this book. it is now at the bottom of a cage full of mice being torn apart for nesting material. i guess it's good for something!"
+12521,1,Oh no!,"Not another blond pin up pop artist pushed into the already bloated market. Willa/Christina/Britney/Jessica/Mandy all sing the same songs, written by the same MEN. The only difference is Willa ""wants"" to be bad, but she never quite pulls it off. Plus what is with the name? I know her real name is Amanda Williford. And of all the names she came up with- Willa?? That was the best? Please spare us the annoyance of allowing her to continue to pollute the airwaves with her sour notes."
+12522,1,Piece of crap,"Very Very hard to set up. Myself, husband or teenage computer nerd had hard time figuring out. When finally got it then the alarm was not reliable. One time late for work was all it took. Sent it back."
+12523,2,"yes, would recommend","very happy with the kindle2 and i'm not one to buy books or a daily newspaper. i subscribe to a couple of magazines and will pick up a weekend paper. so far i've been getting weekend USA todays, readers digest, and i have weekly newsletter that use to be e-mailed to my computer are now e-mailed to my kindle. have read more with the kindle then ever read before. three things that i'd like to change. 1. i'd like to use my own pics for the sleep mode. 2. i'd like to create folders to help organize my stuff. 3. maybe offer it in more colors than just white."
+12524,1,An angry patriot talks,"This book consists of a series of conversations between the journalist Elisabeth Schemla and the Algerian feminist Khalida Messaoudi. The conversations are organized into chapters according to topic. It is most interesting for the general reader when Messaoudi is describing her childhood and education. Later chapters focusing on her political struggles require the reader to have extensive background knowledge of modern Algerian politics in order to make sense of them. The repeated use of abbreviations in the book tends to be rather annoying for readers who aren't familiar with Algerian politics. They are explained in a glossary at the end. If you want an insider's view of Algerian politics of 1980s and 1990s, you must read this book. If you are simply looking for tales of an ordinary woman's life (or even an extraordinary woman's life) in Algeria, you'll need to look elsewhere."
+12525,1,Piece of junk,"I bought two of these when my two-month old twins had colds. The best thing I can say about this humidifier is it did help their congestion. Unfortunately, it completely drenches everything (babies, furniture, floor, rugs, etc.). I tried putting down vinyl cloths followed by every blanket and towel I own. Everything is totally drenched in the morning including our laminate floor. The laminate floor is now damaged despite all of our precautions. I went out and purchased the Vicks humidifiers which don't drench everything but don't seem to work very well either. I'm on the search for something else."
+12526,1,AWFUL! NO STARS!,"Bitches Brew signaled the turning point in jazz from popular entertainment to self-centered, unlistenable dross. Fans of Davis's earlier work will weep upon listening to this mess."
+12527,2,The Gorehouse Greats Collection,"I order the ""Gorehouse Greats Collection"" which features 12 thriller movies. This is a Christmas gift and I know he likes all of the collection.The packaging was great with no damage.I received the product within three business days.Very good Seller."
+12528,1,Don't waste money....,.. on the Monster hype and high price quality. There are HDMI cables for $15 here at Amazon that do a great job. I have this cable and it's given me nothing but trouble (and the fact that HDMI + cable technology is not consumer ready though they shove it down our throats).
+12529,2,An enjoyable read!!,"I picked up this book at the grocery store when I was desperate for something to read while visiting relatives. What a joy! Although this was my first Jan Jeffry novel, it's not my last!Jane Jeffry and her friend Shelly Nowack offer some laughs while they work to solve a crime. In this case they signed up to take a gardening class when the instructor is attacked and the substitute instructor is killed. While Jane juggles house work, raising children and a gardening class, her and her friend work to solve a the murder.If I could rate it a 4+ I would have done that or a 5-. Mainly because I thought the ending was a little bit abrupt. However, it was a great read and I'm buying more of her books today.Enjoy."
+12530,1,This is NOT an instructional video,"While I realize that Ted Nugent is a ""personality"" -- I was not buying this video for an entertainment experience -- I was looking for a serious guitar instructional video that would help me improve my skills. The parts of the video that contained actual instructions were too fast with no break-downs to display right and left hand movements. P.S. His opening antics demonstrate a misuse of firearms that only reinforces the need for serious gun control in this country."
+12531,1,Overpriced and uncomfortable,"Looked promising since it is made from recycled materials. However the design is bad:1) The seat is hollow and kids hate to sit in/on it, hurts their bottom. We have to put a pillow in it to fill up the seat. Saw similar tire horse swings at the local hardware store for half the price, (yes taxes but no shipping!)that have a rounded (convex) seat. Have to look into altering the design.2) The stirrups are way to small to fit even the smallest feet, and are useless.3) The rubber is made shiny with a product that rubs off on clothes and is hard to get off."
+12532,2,well worth the money,"This messenger bag is exactly what I was looking for. It's spacious enough to hold your notebook and whatever else you may need with it. There are pockets for your cords, external drives, mouse, cell phone whatever. The shoulder strap and the bag itself are well padded so it's comfortable and durable."
+12533,1,Cow Dung at its Worst,"What a piece of garbage this is. Of the the 700 CD's I own, this is the absolute worst. Eddie owes me fifteen bucks. I really liked Gary with Extreme, but he was not a real party guy. Van Halen music (when at its best) was always upbeat, have a blast, party music. You could hear the fun the group was having, regardless of what Eddie has said in print about David Lee and Sammy. Eddie is not going to pull a Carlos Santana at this rate. His work has gotten worse and worse since ""1984"", and most of the stuff since David Lee left sounds forced and unrealistic. The early stuff sounded like they didn't have a care in the world - just loved making music. Eddie's read too many of his clippings about being a guitar God. Although Stevie Ray Vaughan died early, he could teach Eddie a thing or two about being dedicated to the music, not his own conceited ego. Eric Clapton this guy will never be. After risking money on this guys last 7 CD's, I will not be suckered again."
+12534,1,One month later--still no item!,"I purchased this product exactly one month before I was supposed to give it as a birthday present. Here I am two days before the birthday, and I have yet to receive it.Even more concerning, the phone number for this company no longer works and the email section pops up an error message when I try to submit my complaint. To be fair, I did receive a return phone call from a customer sales rep about two weeks ago. However, I don't have anything to show for my purchase and as of now, no course of action to get a refund!"
+12535,1,FUEminator,"This thing is amazing. If you have pets, you definitly need this product. Works wonders. You wouldn't believe the hair it pulls out!!"
+12536,1,way too judgemental,"I found this book to a slightly entertaining view of the 42nd street that I was very much a part of in the early 80's. What I found distrubing was his overt racism, anti-Semitism, homophobia, and all around demeaning view of the people he writes about. He choses adjectives to describe the people that haunt the streets that really show his distaste of his subjects. I find this very unsettling coming from someone who supposedly wrote for Screw magazine, one of the first widely ""accepted"" sex newspapers. In his book every African American is reduced to panhandler or scammer, every homosexual is a predatory faggot and all the Jews are scheming to make a buck or get laid. Kinda sad."
+12537,1,Terrible Textbook,I am 3rd year undergraduate student and just finished taking a class that requires this book. This book was so unhelpful in trying to do assignments or even understand the text. As a matter of fact you will be in chapter 8 trying to reference an algorithm in chapter 1. You end up spending to much time trying to find information that is not even in this book.This book is GARBAGE!!!!! If your professor requires this book. Drop the class immediately!!!! I feel this book is an insult to any professor who teaches Design and Analysis of Algorithms!!!Someone needs to ask the authors if we all can have our money back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
+12538,1,INCORRECT TRACK LISTING,"I BELIEVE THIS IS A LIVE ALBUM WITH THE TEN TRACKS LISTED ABOVE, BUT THE LENGTH SUMMARY SHOWS 11 TRACKS FOR THE CD LABELED 'RONNIE MILSAP'.THAT CD (NOT THE BRANSON ONE SHOWN IN THE PICTURE) IS THE CORRECT ONE FOR THE LENGTHY REVIEW GIVEN HERE, AND IT HAS THE SAME 11 TRACK REVIEW IF YOU LOOK FOR IT ON AMAZON!"
+12539,1,BAD PAINT JOB,"This tea pot looks great in the picture but when you get it it looks NOTHING like the picture. The painting of the blue willow on the tea pot is horrible and so dark you barely make out what its suppose to be. The picture of the teapot is very misleading to what you will get ! DON""T PURCHASE!!"
+12540,1,Many Errors,"This book was a nice effort, but filled with mistakes, errors, etc. Many photos are mis-labeled, or incorrect year, and the mix of photo sources do not make the book feel as they are from the period. For example, some photos are of a classic car with a 1990's background while some are original illustrations and photos from perhaps a manufacture brochure. The writing is brief, and leaves you wanting more. The book is a OK as a picture book and that is it. I really wonder who edited / fact checked / proofed the text and photos."
+12541,1,Mainstream,"Linkin Park is a really bad band in my eyes. I've tried to like them but their music isn't good and the rap lyrics ruin it all for me.If you're thinking about buying this I'd STRONGLY suggest getting Slipknot's self-titled album instead, it has some rap but it's heavier, more intense, and the singing (or screaming if you will) is a lot better on Slipknot than it is on this album."
+12542,1,"Little Richard is fabulous, but the sound is not and it's awfully short","Little Richard had something to prove at the Toronto Peace Festival in 1969 ($14.98; Shout). His last Top 40 hit was more than a decade earlier and he would never have another. But Richard was always convinced of his own fabulousness and knew the world should be convinced of it too. And he ripped the crowd into a frenzy during his half hour set, thanks to timeless classics like ""Lucille"" and ""Long Tall Sally"" -- not to mention a shirt adorned with tiny mirrors and a towering wig. DA Pennebaker captures the moment well, though the sound leaves something to be desired and at 30 minutes this is awfully short. Why not give us three hours of the day-long festival, of which this could be a highlight? On its own, it's just not enough. Visit me at michaelgiltz dot com."
+12543,2,Most updated Chapter 7 Bankruptcy book,"This is the most recent Chapter 7 Bankruptcy book from NOLO, published May 2006.Another one will be published April 2007, ISBN 1413306276.I trust Nolo books with my eye closed, their legal content is totally updated ! ... I am a big Nolo fan!used many of their books!Check out The New Bankruptcy - Will it Work for You?"
+12544,2,I recommend it to anyone- with friends or no friends!,"This book will make you really think about about how to treat people. I think the best advice he gave that really hit home for me is to not criticize people, and to know how to be critical without hurting other people. I personally don't have a problem making friends, but I think we all (whether popular or not) should (from time-to-time) brush up on our people skills, it doesn't hurt, it's a process of growing. He uses a lot of historical characters to make his points clear, so those who like a little history can also benefit from this book. However, I also highly recommend, ""The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People"" by Stephen Covey, the combination of the two will definately be effective. Happy reading!"
+12545,1,The failure of the general approach,"In surveying the overall history of the Jewish people one should have some sense of its overall direction and meaning. One should too give the reader a real sense of the transformations through various periods. One should also have a sense of the centrality of Israel, and the significance of the Jewish return to sovereignty.This collection is lacking all these elements. While it contains many fine individual essays as an overall work it just does not hang together. Previous collections of essays on Jewish history as a whole, one thinks of the great Ben- Sassoon anthology are far superior to this one."
+12546,2,Great,I thoroughly enjoyed this book and would recommend it to anyone. It really shed some light on myself as well as others in my life. This book is well worth it.
+12547,1,Not compatible with Toshiba E740,"I bought the card because it said that it is compatible with PDA.I first had some troubles with transfer large files. Then had trouble with backup(back-up) of the Toshiba E740 pocket PC.After chatting with Toshiba online support, suggesting that I check the compatibility, I went to the Sandisk's website, and then found out that the SD 128 MB (619659015947/B000068CS0)doesn't compatible with Toshiba product. What a problem. Hope that help."
+12548,1,Horrible service,"I loved the phone, and I don't think any other phone in current market can beat it but lags with patchy and horrible service. It has all functions anyone can ask for, including palm type, easy link to computer for synching, very nice camera, awesome screen and the dial. Only cons, I see is the size of it and the material it is made of, once it is dropped, marks and cracks on it really hurts if you are attached to this beautiful phone."
+12549,2,Loved the book.,I like mysteries. This was fun and I feel like I have visited the northwest. Kept me interested from page one to the last page.
+12550,1,Stripped threads!,"When I got this product and set it up I tried carefully screwing the stand on to the base. I managed to cross the threads on both stands while assembleing. That said, I was able to jam the stand into place and am using the stands for my surround sound system. Also, The way you are supposed to attach your speakers to the stand is a little ad hoc. I will use the double sticky tape provided, but am using a rubber band to hold my speakers in place for now. Overall this stand is functional, but not elegant. The threads stripping on the base was particularly disturbing to me."
+12551,1,So Much Fluff III,"Again, this book seems to lack content, as did the previous two in this series. This book seems filled with irrelevant clipart more than actual advice. Also, the annoying editing mistakes again make numerous appearances in this book suggesting it was quite rushed. Most of the advice is completely common sense, and not what I would consider ""advanced techniques"". The book begins to go over some of the information that it needs to address, but doesn't get into near enough depth. In the three book series, Andy never really goes into bluffing, what specific odds are, what specific tells people might have, etc. If you want to get a good book, I would get the book by Ken Warren ""the winner's guide to hold'em"" which goes into much more depth, and is written much better."
+12552,1,packaging definitely needs work,"I received this item and the box looked, like it was a return item fromsomeone else that did not like the item and returned it, then it was shipped to me. But it was a brand new item. I feel the same way as others that reviewed this item, in that it should be put into another box to be shipped.I think there would be a lot less missing pieces from the box that way.As there is heavy tubeing that slides around in the box and brake the taped edges of box and things goes missing. I was missing 4 shelfs, contacted amazon and they will be sending a replacement wood rack. So will see if this one goes any better. As for the wood rack itself, I have heard good coments about the rack and from what I seen before I had to send the partial shipment back, it looked like a very sturdy rack. So, if you can get all the pieces in one try you will like this rack, but it is like gambleing, you have to take a chance. Good luck."
+12553,1,Not as Expected.,"Typically, Delta provides the inset button & replacement screw. This did not, however, it is advertised as a generic handle.More complete description would be helpful, as this does not fit the earlier Delta Single Handle Faucets with the 'diamond shaped' stem."
+12554,2,my favorite smb album,"this is the first steve miller band album i ever owned,and it is still my favorite 30+years down the road.most people are probably most familiar with ""living In The USA""from this album.a good song ,but not my favorite.the album opens with ""Song For Our Anscestors/Quicksilver Girl""the sound effects of the first and ""hippy""lyrics ""she's a quicksilver girl,lover of the world""etc.of the second might have sounded dated but some how they don't.other highlites iclude a cover of jimmy reeds'""You're So Fine"".My two favorite songs,however are two Boz Scaggs compositions,the Bo Diddley-esque ""Overdrive""and the full on kick a** rocker ""Dime-A-Dance Romance"".altogether a graet example of the San Francisco sound especially if you're not into 20 minute guitar jams that lose a lot if you were'nt there."
+12555,2,Sweet smell of success,"The first thing that caught my eye was the packaging. Then the bottle design, simple but stylish, and looks fab on the dresser.The perfume itself is nice, striking but not overwhelming, and the fragrance lingers on for over ten hours. Not bad for the price."
+12556,1,Booooring,"It's like a 90-minute screensaver with bad music. Yeah, for a few minutes you're thinking, ""Wow, how did they get that shot,"" and there are a few really funny moments, but how many shots of birds flying can you watch.The music is really annoying; it sounds like they ... some poor boy to get the vocals.And the narrator has a really jarring French accent: ..."
+12557,1,Hanna- Barbara Cartoons presents?,Poor old George. I suppose that tank riding into town machine gunning its inhabitants and then leaving was meant to represent Iraq. But its Capitalism that's demeaning him if he's making twaddle about Zombies for the masses at his ripe old age. He's a silly man.
+12558,1,Girl Talk - Secret Diary,"SECRET DIARY is Girl Talk in embryonic form -- the mash-ups here are more akin to Kid606 than the smooth segues that Girl Talk would be known for, so things sound a little rough. 2 Unlimited's ""Get Ready for This"" crashes into on ""Let's Start This Party Right,"" while ""I Want You Back"" seems to be a grab bag of chopped vocals without much direction... at least until the MJ appears. The album is unabashedly glitchy and washes out some samples in layers of noise, such that there's barely anything recognizable on ""Ffun Have To"" or ""Time to Get Glamourous."" He does show his sense of humor in juxtaposition on ""What If..."", however, smooshing Joan Osborne with some ghetto rap. It's 50% more sacrilegious! The New Kids on the Block get similar treatment on ""The Right Stuff."" Elsewhere, the Price is Right theme gets mangled on ""Unicorn vs. Gravity"" and Destiny's Child is whupped on ""Jumpin(g)."" You can see the seeds here, but they've not yet sprouted."
+12559,1,Another pointless DVD issue,"Clearly the idiot execs at Miramax did read not the previous reviews of the previous DVD release. This issue of this movie is exactly the same as the previous issue. Whilst the AMAZON product's original description posted said was 140 minutes (recently corrected by Amazon) when infact it is actually, - per the label on the back - 133 minutes. So this ""new"" release is still the same as the previous substandard release and is also the, SHORTENED edited version missing the entire opening scene as in the theatrical release. Further to add insult to injury, after eagerly purchasing which what I thought based on the product description was the uneditied verion - there are absolutely NO extras - not even the measly theatrical trailer.Stay clear of this recent release....and hopefuly the studio (Miramax) will get their act together and release the full - unedited version."
+12560,1,Find another,There are several financial authors available on Amazon offering real guidance. The best currently are Dave Ramsey and Ric Edelman.Kiyosaki's message is complete BS. I should have Googled Kiyosaki before I bought Rich Dad. Don't waste your money too.Start here: www.johntreed.com/Kiyosaki.html
+12561,1,The mosquitoes are getting smarter!!!!,"Mosquitoes are focusing on human body and have the tendency to stay away from the trap... on the other hand we are catching all kind of insects. I feel that I am taking the dinner away from the bats and other predators.The company should create new look, new scent or new color to outsmart these most disturbing insects."
+12562,2,Engaging!,"I came across this movie on one of the movie channels on dish and, being a teacher of literature, got completely sucked in. I loved how the actors explore the characters of the play and the various plot sequences, then the audience is treated to the final outcome. Though the scenes are acted out at different locations throughout London, rather than on-stage, and one might say that it detracts from the film's credibility, the locations are well thought out and appropriate to the scene.I can't wait to use this film as a teaching tool."
+12563,1,GRAND,"I watched the movie on Cartoon Network about two years ago. It's an excellent movie, I tell you. It's facinating!!! ^_^I loved the characters and their personalities. I seriously loved the art designs animation. It brings out the true life of the movie. In my opinion, this DVD is great! You should get this DVD and soon. It ROCKS! ^_^!"
+12564,2,Wake up call,"This is an awesome book, it works!Everyone should read this, it will really improve your marriage, even if only one of you read it and apply it."
+12565,2,Amazing Album,"I absolutely love this album. Each song is incredible. Sure it's no blue album, but I don't know why everyone wants it to be exactly like the blue album. what the fun in that? I think even the people who are not sure weather or not they'll like it will love it. I think the best songs on the album are ""This is Such A Pity"" and ""Haunt You Every Day"". Both of those songs are just amazing. The other really good ones to look out for are ""Perfect Situation"", ""Hold Me"" and ""Peace"". Those are wonderfully written. Great job Rivers! So I highly recommend this album to everyone. You'll love it."
+12566,1,Not Durable,"Although this is a cute idea, I would not recommend this for small children (which doesn't make sense because that is who it is for, right?). There are too many things to try to keep track of and too many ways it can be destoyed by little hands. This is one of those toys to keep on a high shelf and to only be looked at with adult supervision."
+12567,1,help yourself,"First off, if you like any of the artists on this cd, there is something wrong with you already, secondly, if you want to buy a cd, why not pick your favorite artist (or rather sex symbol)and buy their cd instead. This is a shameless attempt to make money...but unless you're here to mock the cd like i am, you probably won't listen. Buy Mudhoney instead, its better pop music."
+12568,1,Looks good but didn't last,"We recieved this as a Christmas present in Dec 2009. Nice size, looks great, removable shelves, easy to use. However around 6-7 months later it started to run constantly, and after that it stopped cooling completely (verified with a thermometer we put in it to check). Unfortunatly this resulted in our power bill going significantly up for a few months before we pinpointed the culprit. Now that I read the reviews, I see that we are not the only ones that this has happened to. If this is such a common problem, I would hope that there would be some kind of recall on this item. But it seems that even if you cash in on the warranty, you still have to pay the shipping costs... which isn't worth it to us.I'd be very hesitatant to buy this brand again, unfortunately."
+12569,1,WTF!?!?,"Awful, this is one of the worst movies ever made. NL was once the mecca of amazing comedies, but now they are far from it, they make crude and mean jokes about other films and directors while THEY make movies like this one. Year One has the same idea and was truly brilliant, this however is a low budget, camp filled piece of garbage."
+12570,2,Available and the price was right.,The item was as described. It was hard to find one like this locally so felt lucky to find it on line. My only concern is if it will last. It is pretty light weight and I am believe the arms will loosen up over time as the spring in the roller is pretty stout. It exactly replaced an old chrome unit though and works well now.
+12571,2,Well Done for Preschool,"My 3 1/2 year old girl enjoys doing 1-2 pages of this book 2 or 3 days a week as part of our at home preschool. They help her work on motor skills, which is the area she needs the most practice in out of the four emphases of the book. She likes this workbook, finds it fun and likes the illustrations. I feel she is learning something. We are happy with this purchase."
+12572,2,"it works, it's priced right","Over the years I've bought about a dozen grinders in this style and this one is my favorite. It grinds quick and even.This one is for work. For home I have a very nice burr grinder with which you can change the coarseness, select a number of cups, etc. Which is lovely but PRICEY. This little puppy is almost as good for a quarter the price.I've bought several of these (we use them for both coffee and spice grinding) and they do eventually break, especially if you make heavy use of them."
+12573,1,Too Short!!,"At ~10-3/4"" height from base to mount when extended, this is too short for both my 26"" cruiser and mountain bikes. This stand may be fine for a 24"" wheeled bike, but without spacers, this one allows bike to wobble to one leg or the other. The standing height of this unit should be disclosed in the description!!!! For that...ONE star, because there are no negative stars to give for this negligence. Now I either have to return it or purchase material and work an hour on an appropriate spacer.I already have a $19 one from WallyWorld and at ~12"" mount-height, it fits great with enough space under a wheel to remove it or work on it. I'm surprised the height problem wasn't mentioned before. I probably should have purchased the ""M-Wave Steel Double Leg Side Bicycle Kickstand"" here instead. I only bought this one after reading the reviews here."
+12574,1,terrible,i ordered the soundtrack from the movie NOT the original cast recording. When I opened it and put it in the cd player I was sorely dissappointed upon listening to it.
+12575,2,"Not as good as the first book, but still addictive","This is the second book of this series. I am currently 3/4 of the way through the book. I was able to complete the first book in three sittings, it was that good. This one is taking me longer. Not that it is not good, but it is not as gripping as the first book. The second book mellowed out more than I expected, but maybe that is part of the plan. I am still enjoying it though and still look forward to finishing the series completely. I still believe that this series was geared for teenagers, maybe because the story is based on a group of kids. I'm still looking forward to seeing what happens, so it is definitely drawing me in."
+12576,1,mini keychain garage door opener,"This is a great little remote, very handy to have on a keychain. It is a much safer alternative than leaving the remote in the car. Car theives can't easily open the garage door if they don't have the remote! The downside is these little remotes break easily if you drop them, especially with the weight of your keys."
+12577,1,So disappointed,"So disappointed in this cd. This is a 40 day plan, however, you have to listen to past days to get to your current days plan. You can't just get to your day without listening to all the ones prior. The cd was made all on one track! Not happy with that part of it!"
+12578,1,You get what you pay for!,Get the yellow Champion. this one was a waste of time and money. The first one broke so had to have another shipped. The second one broke and that was enough for me. Both times it was internal things that you can't fix yourself and both times it was within the first hour of operation.
+12579,1,Dangerous,"I fitted the Heavy Duty Grass Gator to my line trimmer. Started cutting some grass and hit a small rock. One of the plastic blades, along with its pin, broke away. Fortunately these parts flung out and away from me (and didn't hit anyone else)! In my opinion, this is a dangerous product! Not recommended!"
+12580,1,This device is no good,"This device will not let you fast forward or rewind to a spot and listen. It's either to the beginning or the end. Also it will not let you record over any area. It just starts another file. This is unacceptable. Even if you were to use it for a lecture, how can you not have the ability to fast forward through dead spots. And for dictations, you can't mess up. Can't go back and re-record over a spot. As someone else stated, how could such a product ever make to the market. Olympus gets a big ""F"" on this one."
+12581,2,To cool for words,This is the greatest invention since paperbacks. Absolutely love it. It meets all my expectations and I'm still discovering surprises. Can't wait to take it around the world.
+12582,2,Book,Something about Russ Martin's novels that are just so eerily delicious to sink yourself into! I keep reading his books over & over & over again.
+12583,2,Fun and puch key messages,"This movie is fun/relax to listen, it provides situations that can append in your own family ... The situations are exagerated to make it fun. The lesbian & gay couple are playing with real great emotion. You must see this movie."
+12584,1,Does the author have any creativity?,"I have only read one book by this authoress, On Fortune's Wheel and it seems to contain the same characters as this one and the same background for the herines as in Jackaroo. Does this author have any different ideas other than these?"
+12585,2,Perfect for a pet,"Borrowed one from a friend and it has become our dog's crate. Leaves enough space for his bed, floor space and water bowl. Friend needed theirs back so we bought the exact same thing. Easy in and out. Getting the joints to move is a bit tricky but once it's set, we are good."
+12586,1,Where were the engineers?,"Sounds repetitive, but it's true: worked for one month, then even with a new bulb, it didn't. I know it's getting power, because the power light is on, but no zap-o-matic. I agree with all the other reviews--this is recycling material that should have been canned at the engineering stage, not mass-produced and pushed in fancy packaging to big-box retailers. What in the world causes companies to produce garbage like this and expect the word won't get out?"
+12587,1,Disappointed,"Sounds great according to the reveiws of other buyers, but everyone has different taste and I would not buy this unless i can listen to samples myself first. Come on Amazon!"
+12588,1,extenstion,i am so frustrated with amazon i cant beleive this i still have not recived the table extension you guys have taken my money but i still do not have the extension. i have called many times. you told me that they were back orderd but when i origionaly orderd it it was in stock.LIE. then i called roussou they said they had plenty of them. what is amazons problem. how do you run buisness amazon should be ashamed it has been 2 months and nuthing but exuses. otherwise i am very happy with what i did get rousseau is a great company and makes a great product just dont buy it from amazon
+12589,1,A piece of junk,"The remote worked well but that was about it. It did not put out any cool air. I've since purchased a Ultracool with the same capacity (water and BTU reduction) and it works very well. It keeps my entire 29' Fifth wheel at very livable temps. For instance, yesterday the hottest temp was at 4 pm (99 degrees) and that was the first time I turned on the AC. Had been using the evaporative (swamp) cooler all day long. Only used the AC (1,500 watts) for 3 hours yesterday and 8 hours of 60 watt evaporative cooler. That's a substantial savings. I expect this $180 swamper to recoup its cost this summer alone. Next year will be all pure savings."
+12590,1,Please! Not again!,"We purchased this game for our son when he was about 3 & 1/2 years old. He loved it! He wanted to play it repeatedly. The only problem is, the set up each time is quite tedious and takes three times as long as it does to actually play the game. Since he was too little to set it up, guess who got to do it over and over and over? We conveniently lost this game when we moved."
+12591,1,Not alright,"This disc is not so hot. The singers' voice is not 'gravelly', but rather fairly annoying, with endless repetition the seeming ultimate goal. Our maximalist hero, alas, pushes the boundaries in some very previously-explored directions. People were ready to follow Luke Slater off the edge of the earth before this disc came out. Who knows what is next for the guy.There are some tracks that are not THAT bad, but tracks like Only You and Stars and Heroes can be instantly deleted from your hard drive if you rip this disc. There are several tracks that would be good if you could delete the voice over. It's like Slater creates this wall of sound and bass in your room (e.g. Searchin for a Dream), and this guy walks in and starts mumbling next to your head. No offense Mr. Slater, but it just doesn't work.This thing is going for one U.S. penny on the used listings. Let that be a review in itself."
+12592,2,Sixth Grade Secrets,In the book sixth grade secrets my favorite part was when Gabbriel found out about their club and started a war about it.This book was one of the best books I have ever read in my life.This book was about a girl who started a club and a boy who found out about it and they got in a fight. I would recommend this book to ages 9 to 18 because it is that good.
+12593,1,Scrapbook Plus,I brought the software beleiving that it would help me with my scrapbooking. It has very limited graphics and templates to workwith. I would not recomend this software package. Also the journaling sucks as well. Even when you start a product from scratch the software isn't user friendly with very little guidence. As stated before 1 star is to much.
+12594,2,I like it!,"Purchased this for 14-year-old band student. Works great in the Texas heat. No leakage, comfortable to wear, keeps water cool. She gives it 5 stars. Works as well as camelbak at lower price point."
+12595,1,Disappointed,"While this book was my brother's favorite, I had difficulty even finishing it. I actually put it down for weeks, then finally made it through to the end. I didn't 'like' many of the characters, the politic was 'everyday', and I missed the great descriptions of natural Florida. Hiaasen is one of my favorite authors, but this is one of my least favorite of his books."
+12596,1,He sees only what his worldview allows him to see,"The evidence that his arguments are littered with fallacious arguments is overwhelming, just in the first few pages - which is admittedly all I read. If you are an atheist, Darwinian, naturalist, guess what!? We don't have any souls! Imagine that! The only thing astonishing is that this was published, but I forget, he won a Nobel prize, so he could write ""poop"" on a piece of toilet paper and get it published. At least that would be less harmful to the public's opinion of the interaction of science and God."
+12597,2,Everything It's Cracked Up To Be!,This Toaster/Poacher really works. It's always great to purchase something that goes beyond your expectations.
+12598,1,Lo peor de lo peor,"This watch is a piece of garbage, a junk. It never worked. Es una lamentable pérdida de dinero tiempo y NO LO COMPREN, evÃtense la pena. PLEASE DO NOT BUY."
+12599,1,Old Man,This book was written for an older version of SolidWorks than the one I have. It was not much help to me.
+12600,2,From destruction to autodestruction,"Joachim Fest's book is a pregnant reconstruction of Hitler's last days and the end of the Third Reich based on the latest testimonies of the people who were with him in the Berlin bunker.Fest sketches summarily the historical background (the Versailles Treaty, the Weimar Republic), but gives a sharp analysis of Hitler's character: his racism and cynical enforcement of the law of the strongest. The vanquished had to be annihilated or enslaved: 'Apes trample to death all those who don't belong to their community'.Until the end Hitler believed in an alliance change (that Great Britain and the US would turn with him against the bolsheviks).When he saw that the war was lost, he ordered the annihilation of the whole of Germany and its population.Even on the ruins of the Third Reich his lieutenants continued to fight for his succession.This is a short but impressive tale about the madness of power.Not to be missed."
+12601,1,"Don't even waste your money, the radio plays DMX nonstop....","Sheesh. If I wanted to hear barking and growling on my music, i'd stick a microphone in front of my Rottweiler Petey. And it'd be a lot more entertaining.I'm already sick of this CD thanks to radio overkill. Just hearing the tracks on this nonsense make me reach for my Tribe or Wu albums."
+12602,2,weird start up but then fine,"when I first plugged it in it had a problem and shut down. Something with it's saftey system I'm sure. After unplugging it and a five minute wait, it worked perfectly and seems to be fine."
+12603,2,Shastro's Tantric Heart,"I was first exposed to Shastro on Public Radio Broadcasting's Echoes. I immediately went to amazon to order Oasis Nights. This music is so uplifting and diverse. Tantric Heart lives up to its' name ""Music for lovers"" It is more mellow and hypnotic than the faster paced and uplifting Oasis Nights. Though the mood of these two are quite different I love them both. Shastro has shown me he is not only talented but also capable of diverse compositions."
+12604,1,pretty boring,Like the rest of the reviews I found this movie pretty bad. Maybe its because i've seen the orginal so much but the acting was so poor. Its like they all new it was created for the special effects. Its just a slow paced poor re-make.
+12605,1,Not as good in my opinion,I am a Woody Allen fan and bought this because of the reviews. I guess it was not my cup of tea. I couldn't watch it for more then 15 minutes. I wish I could figure out what exactly I didn't like about it.
+12606,1,WebCam,Ordered two webcams as a gift for my husband and could not activate the sound on either one. No trouble shooting instructions on package directions.
+12607,2,THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST SETS EVER,My only complaint is were is the long version of Bluebird this set is also strange because why are some of the same songs is studio versions repeated from the fourth disc wich is the first two albums but in mono and stereo. This is all of it and I believe it it has taken Neil Young so long to compile this set and he did a fine job. At times this set gets a little over welming but thats what we want all this set does is show just how fresh and brilliat Young and Stills were and it prooves that they were a band like no other Buffalo Springfield is one of the greatest bands of all time even if there time togather was short it's some of the most groundbreaking music of the late 60's buy it if you want more then the best of wich is still fine to own.
+12608,1,not my bag.,"too drawn out, kinda dull. didn't finish it. too repetitive and wordy. I'll probably read the last chapter some day to see who is guilty."
+12609,2,THE BATTLE OF THE MODELS,this game rocks you get to choose your own model to battle with and you get to switch your model too. you win money after every battle you win to get more parts to power up your model. its very fun and very challenging to win.
+12610,2,Sprinkler pump,Has been operating satisfactory for several years. Hope it will continue for several more years. I do not have anything more to add.
+12611,2,best conceivable recording of the music,"Zanon has technique by the yard and studied all the manuscript evidence available (he writes that early editions of the Etudes were riddled with errors and he's right, I tried learning etude 1 from an early run and was very confused).Armed with his scholarly work and fingers Zanon not only gives the best interpretation of Villa-Lobos solo guitar work I've heard, he also seems to be the only person to have crammed all of V-L's solo guitar works on to a single CD. This is one CD any fan of Villa-Lobos and 20th century classical guitar simply must own."
+12612,1,Read the book instead!,"I was truly not impressed with this film after reading the epic novel by Victor Hugo. It did not convey the same spirit and ideas that Hugo was trying to portray. The novel is made up of five volumes. Three fourths of this film was spent on the first volume, and Cosette's adult life seemed almost an afterthought. The musical was infinitely better. One positive note -- Liam Neeson's portrayal of Jean Valjean was rather good."
+12613,1,what is this bologna...,dont waste your time.. i can listen to hybrid theory and meteora all day. I cant even get passed 5 songs without having to change the CD. Terrible.. just terrible.. mr. hahn and mike shinoda aren't even present... Almost seems like when they had the interview with them on MTV the other day. Just Chesters and Phoenix's ideas as they were saying what they wanted to express.. They pretty much sold out to the likes of Rick Rubin who totally messed up this cd and added his political thoughts just like in American Idiot cd. Rick Rubin is a turd.. this is not linkin park.
+12614,1,Teflon flakes,"We've had fun with this Christmas gift.......but only the second time that we've used it, we found Teflon flakes on all of our cute little mini-donuts. That's not safe! In the trash it goes......"
+12615,1,HO Train,"I was very disapointed in this item. It fell well short of what I expected. Even with the discount, In my opinion, this product is way way overpriced. The picture of the item on the web page was very misleading. It would have been nice if The web page had a more elaborate description to include the length of the item. I needed a HO Locomotive right away to use pulling our train around our Christmas tree. Amazon was very convenient, shipping was free and time was short. Item did arrive before the expected delivery date. The Locomotive was an HO but I had a constant problem keeping it on the rails especially when the train went through turnouts. When used with an assortment of various HO railroad cars the Locomotive looked to small and just didn't blend in at all. Since we only run the train at Christmas I will be shopping for a replacement before next Christmas."
+12616,2,better than I remembered,"Yes, the animation is horrible. Not a lot of movement, a lot of repetition, a lot of looooonnnnnnng establishing shots. BUT...the artwork is wonderful. Think of it as watching a comic book or graphic novel. Suddenly it gets a lot better.The voicework is terrible. Except for Urko.The stories aren't too bad at all, not a lot of dumbing down for the kiddies. Some of the decisions our heroes make are rather stupid, but overall the stories are fairly well done.Do not expect much carryover from the movies, except for some characters' names. This series is closer to the Pierre Boulle novel in terms of the ape technology, (ie: vehicles, planes) and does not follow the film 'canon'.I thoroughly enjoyed revisiting this series that I last saw as a child. I just wish it had an ending."
+12617,2,Darn good little mouse,"I usually dont' care/think about stuff like mice, but I have to say this little guy is the MOST comfortable mouse I've ever used. Nice contours, supports the hand well and great button feel. In addition, it has NEVER had syncing problems (in contrast with my logitech mice, which lose connection all the time) and has a nice antenna storage slot on the bottom of the mouse which also turns the mouse off. Plus, takes only ONE AA battery which has lasted for a really long time. Try it, you'll like it."
+12618,1,Not what I ordered,"I ordered a Red Wall Phone, and received a beige wall phone. Its not what I ordered, and when I wanted to return/exchange the phone, the seller basically told me tough. So now I'm stuck with a phone, that I will not use and is tucked away in a closet somewhere."
+12619,1,What the heck ???,"I bought this superwinch atv mount for my polaris sportsman 500. It fit the atv just fine, but my superwinch 2500 lb winch holes would not line up with winch mount are you kidding me."
+12620,2,Robert D Ingebo is the smartest man alive!!!!,"HI everyone, I just want you to know that this man is pure genius! I mean how can you possibly expect me to be this cute and not have this man as my freaking grandfather? huh? what? Buck buck.If you dont know who this is you are a big dumbass. Thanks have a great day! Oh and by the way this man is 87 years old and still golfs better than your dad. He also invented a type of fuel that got our very first rocketship to the moon. Hows that for brains?"
+12621,2,ARE YOU READY YET?,"Unbelieveable... Play this Lp in an enclosed room at full volume (as far as you can go) on a decent turntable set up with a tube amp. You will never experience music like this again and you will question ""just how powerful is heroin?"" Play the Lp 100 times and you will notice something different each and every time."
+12622,2,"Fabulous Illustrations, Wonderful Gift Idea","If you've been to Paris at all, you'll recall some of the street corners and landmarks in this sketchbook. But if you haven't been there, these elegant and intimate illustrations done by Moireau will trigger your fantasy about the wonderful city. There is a plethora of competent guide/travel books about Paris with lots of pictures and photographs, but none capture the whimsy of the place like this book does. Mary Kelly's narrative asides complement the illustrations unobtrusively. Once again, Moireau's poetic portraits of the various areas of the city are a marvel to behold; I could really see the love this artist had for the city. The book also has a nice flow to it, so as you move through the book to the end, you feel as though you've taken a nice, slow walk through the Parisian streets. A lovely book."
+12623,1,Not Compatible with Treo 700p,"After reading all the reviews on the x3 I ordered it and was very excited when it finally arrived. But that excitement quickly faded on the second day when I couldnt get the x3 to pair with my Treo. Numberous attempts were made without success. Finally I called tech support at BlueAnt and the tech advised me that the x3 was not compatible with the Treo 700p. The Tech at BlueAnt was very Helpful and advised me to try one of the Plantronics bluetooth earpieces, which I did and it works very well. I contacted DataVision which sold me the x3 on amazon, and was told by the rep that I could NOT return the product and DataVision would NOT refund my money because the product had been opened. The rep was very Rude and not helpful at all! I will NEVER purchase another product from DataVision again!"
+12624,2,Good Stuff,I highly recommend this product. Brings back some good memories and is still fun to listen to. Edition contains a good mix of well-known and lesser well-known tracks. Good music to share with a loved one. Don't forget your lighters!
+12625,2,First KK,Klean Kanteen was recommended by many of my co-workers who used them daily. I was going to purchase a BPA free plastic bottle but even though the bottle is BPA free other plastics may emit over time. Overall I am satisfied with the product and to my surprise I received the Sport cap after ordering the loop. The only negative is the sport cap's whooshing sound when drinking.
+12626,2,This is a great teaching tool,"The Measly Middle Ages has made teaching 7th grade social studies a breeze! My students love the gross facts and the comics that make learning history fun. One of them paid it the highest compliment a 13 year old can, he kept it! Now I'm ordering two more and will keep a closer eye this set."
+12627,2,"Brilliant voice, cool guitar","Becky Kilgore sings ""Let's Get Lost"" with the bossa nova beat of John Miller. Is it enough? No, of course. It's a little bit of a great, sobrious and definitive album that mixes a clear, vibratoless voice, with a tender mood of a perfect guitar. Buy the CD. There's no drums, no brass, no percussion. Everything is calm, cool, and you will can hear a superb selection of standards, movie songs and Broadway shows like ""There's a Small Hotel"", ""Look For The Silver Lining"", ""I Remember You"", and the curious theme ""He's a tramp"", Peggy Lee's creation for a Disney production. But the best are two special tracks, both singing with feeling and emotion: Billie Holiday & Mal Waldron's ""Left Alone"" and ""Young at Heart"", a Sinatra trademark that Kilgore & Miller recreate with a new personality."
+12628,2,Great for the price... especially for kids.,"I bought these for my 9 year old daughter and they have held out quite well (several months so far)... especially when you consider that they are in the care of a forgetful and sometimes careless kid. The best part about these is that, if they do get stepped on and crushed, ordering another pair is noooooooooo problem. They don't mask sound very well, because I can hear what she's playing on her iTouch (some may find that annoying), but to me, it's that much easier to keep tabs on what she's viewing."
+12629,2,good vibes,on the whole a chill album there are some top quality moments and peachy versions.well worth checking out
+12630,2,perfect,just needed something to help block the sun while I sleep and this works perfectly. Fits snuggly around the face. Seller shipped the day I ordered it and it arrived like three days later in perfect condition.
+12631,2,Family related,"I love the book and the author is great for historical novels,I first started reading Katherine in the 1960's and have had a copy ever since (even one of the dogs tried to chew one copy to make sure it was great) in doing genealogy I found that She is my 20th great grandmother still like to reread it about every two years it is great reading & sticks to the facts where important Sharley Reutter"
+12632,1,Get Over Yourself,"I made the mistake of buying this book thinking there would be some nuggets of value-added information inside. What a waste! This book underscores what is the current status of the publishing industry - anyone can get a book published! Technology and distribution these days allow publishers to print fewer copies of a book and still be profitable. Regardless of that however, it amazes me that Ms. Hall, a mid-aged, back-up anchor/reporter on an infrequently watched channel, CNBC, would be so presumptuous to think she can give advise on life! Give me a break! She obviously has lower standards as to what ""success"" is than most people. Case in point, she lists some award in her biography attained in college??? Digging pretty deep Ms. Hall."
+12633,1,Please get back to basics,"Are you kidding? This is Nils at his worst. I have been a Nils fan for a very long time, and this album is just ""not Nils"". It's like he experimented in something new and it didn't quite work out. He is so much better than this, and he has so much more to offer. I have been waiting for new material for so long (preferably with a full band), and this was really a disappointment. I really hope he gets back to basics soon."
+12634,1,"Like it is remains as it is, lame.","Its a movie about finding love, sex , quarrel , get back together , quarrel ..... You get what I mean?Unless you simply buy this movie just to see the two lead actors butt pressing upon each other, its not worth seeing.Acting wasn't genuine like as though they are being themselves which shouldn't be the case. In other words they can't act except for the bitchy boss. If you must, simply rent to see the short sex scenes or else pass this movie. Not worth it."
+12635,2,Not wrinkle-resistant at all but SO GREAT of a price!,"Product claimed to be wrinkle-resistant, which I don't think any Karate Gi truly is. And this one is not either. But the price for a new uniform for my child was well worth it. The Dojo sells them for $30-60. So the price gets the 4th star. This brand in size 00 fits a 50 inch tall, 50lb child perfectly."
+12636,1,Compatibility issues!,"My issue is with the game maker Encore not the game there are too many things that will not let you play version of this game. I had go into ""MSCONFIG"" and shut everything down to even get it to load. And as is the ""norm"" these days you can't get a service rep that speaks English clearly to help find the trouble. I would say find a different company, not Encore to buy the game from. O and their idea of a ""Jewel case"" is a paper envelope wrapped in a piece of card board."
+12637,1,Don't buy this product,"Buyer Beware! Before you buy this product download the 20 page user's manual and read page 2.You will find out that it is not so easy. Laplink's marketing states that ""Simply install PCMover on both your old and new computers and go!"" Not so!After I read the user's manual, I saw how complicated it really was so I waited until I knew I had a day to try the software. I waited a few months to block out the time and tried it and gave up. This was after the 30 day return policy. However, I didn't download the software until the day before I requested the refund.Buyer Beware. I tried to explain my problems and concerns and asked for a refund. All I got was a ""stone walling"" support staff person named ""Bobbie Anne.""I suggest you write the files you want to move on disc or other storage device and move it to your new computer. Good luck!"
+12638,2,"Another ""I'm-a-Loser"" Movie!","This movie is about a girl who moves out of town. There's a lot of trouble in her new city! I saw a little bit of this at my cousin's house. I could tell that this is a ""I'm-a-Loser"" movie 'cause you should've seen the way Lola crashed into that tree! Another reason is that she accidentally knocked over ALL of the gym lockers! And the part I just don't understand is that running scene in the hallway. Two of the girls bumped their hands on a door. But they act as if they bumped with their heads!! Then they walked away. Then one of the girls just opened the door!!"
+12639,2,"Uhm, guys,..... this is about 2 years old.",I played this game on Dreamcast. Its great. The sequel will be out a few weeks for the Dreamcast. Im sure the PS2 will get it also. Enjoy. I did.
+12640,2,excellent training tool,My daughters use this ball to help improve thier deep range shooting & ballhandling. It is the best product of its type that i have ever seen. So good in fact that i bought two!
+12641,1,Meh,"This book was okay. It did not grab me the way many books do. I finished it and the story was all right, but the pacing of the book was not good. Exciting fights read slowley, conversations dragged on, and so on. If you like characters that are simple to understand and a simple story this is a good book for you. I would defiantly rate it as a 'beach book.' It's a book you can pick up and put down and have it out of your head as soon as it's down. Sorry for the mediocer review but it's not a wonderful book."
+12642,2,Very Helpful Handbook,"I read this book cover to cover and would recommend it for any substitute teacher. It tells you things to remember from the moment your phone rings with a call to sub (what should you have by your phone and what should you ask each time they call) to what you should bring, checklists and supplies and forms to fill out to report back to the permanent teacher. Also, very good are the filler ""sponge activities"" to use if you have empty time. These filler activities were tailored to each specific subject area with sheets to copy and everything. For instance, what to do if you are a sub for a Spanish class and you do not know Spanish. Good ideas about discipline too and certain legalities regarding subs. All in all this is an excellent handbook. I would recommend it highly."
+12643,2,6 Year Old Daughter's Favorite,"My daughter is in Kindergarten and is a beginning reader. She got tired of the ""learn to read"" type books and was longing for a ""big girl"" chapter book. I tried to get her interested in ""The Magic Tree House"" series but that was not for her. I know one parent found this book annoying but to me it only really matters what your child thinks of it and if it gets them interested in reading. We have read four books in the series already and she is always excited to start the next one."
+12644,2,Excellent singer and beautiful songs,This is the kind of album that you can listen to anytime. It is wonderfully romantic with some songs and extremely danceable with others. Buy this album!!! You won't regret it.
+12645,2,So far great,It heats up fast and makes nice curling and I like the radius of the curling iron.very nice.
+12646,1,Did Mary and Joseph spank baby Jesus,Did Mary and Joseph spank Jesus as a baby or as a child? NO they did not. They loved him and treated him with respect they were his protectors and that is the reason why GOD put his only son in their hands because he knew that Jesus was going to be loved and admired by these parents.
+12647,2,Good little case -- does the job.,"After a month of use my harp case doesn't show any wear, there are no tears in the fabric or problems. The outside pocket is large enough to hold my metronome & tuner with tuning wrench. The interior has enough room to tuck two harp books. I'd love for this case to have some personality, it's basic black with nothing to distinguish it, but it does the job."
+12648,1,nice for a while,"About 1 month after buying this it had broken, something broke inside of it and the repairs cost more than what I had paid for it. It was accurate but if you want something to last a lot longer I would buy something different."
+12649,2,Excellent,I had ordered it for my entire clan and they all love it. The delivery was on time and the fragrance lasted for many hours. I would recommend it.
+12650,1,Disappointed,It takes me a total of 15 seconds to crack the combination to this lock. I wish it were harder for someone to crack. I wouldn't trust this lock to secure anything... anywhere... Probably only use it to keep something closed.
+12651,1,"Good for beginners, but winners look elsewhere","This book should be titled Beginning Holdem. It is very basic, and if you already know the rules but want to win the most you can, go for Ed Miller and David Sklansky's book: Small Stakes Holdem, from 2+2 publishing. While you might win at low limit holdem from Jones's book, you won't win so much, but if you don't win, you won't lose so much. This book goes over preflop play, and also goes over post flop play, but not enough. The miller book touches on preflop play, but most mistakes in low limit games are made after the flop, and that is where Jones's book doesn't excell and Miller's does. You will have bigger swings in winnings either positive or negative with Miller's book, but it is the only way to go."
+12652,1,Unrated?,"I'm tired of all these movies claiming to be the Unrated Version and not offering a single thing that wouldn't be included without exception in a PG-13 movie. Add to that only seven or eight decent laughs in the whole movie and I'm pretty ticked-off. Explaining the spoofs would actually be funnier than the movie, so I won't do it.Tried and true spoof formula is not properly hashed out in cheap attempt to cash-in on quarter-of-a-century craze(Airplane 1980). Top Secret, Hot Shot, Hot Shot Part Deux and Not Another Teen Movie are much examples of this (art) form.Might have given it two stars if they left the Unrated off the box.A lot more of Josh Meyers might have helped."
+12653,2,Great for History or Government Teachers,"I highly recommend the first couple episodes for teachers of the American Revolution and early government. Even my more disinterested students find them very good. For other teachers, I have worksheets created for every episode (and their keys) so please reply to this post with your email if you would like them. Enjoy this great work!"
+12654,2,Could not put it down,"It's a funny story at times. It's a sad story at times. It has the feeling of living right there on the street with the characters. All kinds of middle life struggles going on. Trying to stay fit as a 20 year old, midlife pregnancy, a husband that can't seem to talk to his wife because of his grief, an elderly eccentric neighbor, and on and on. Don't miss the chance to read this book............It's fantastic!!!!"
+12655,2,Works great,"Product does exactly what it is supposed to do. Nice large size that can be used for different applications / recipes. I cut it up as needed, especially for making whei from yogurt.I'll update this review again if things go negative."
+12656,1,Terrible,"I love all quicken products, except this. It is basically useless. It takes an incredible amount of time to simply input a medical bill, it doesn't even have the simple ability to to tell you how much your total expenses are and what is left in your HSA/FSA, seems like they could write a little code to for some simple addition and subtrction."
+12657,1,Broken,"I received the package timely, but the box in the box was damaged. Product seemed okay--but after following the manuel, low & behold, it does NOT work!!!"
+12658,1,Ok reference book -- or for beginner,"Amo's Transact-SQL can certainly be faulted for the amount of time that it spends trying to describe how to perform somewhat mundane tasks in Enterprise manager and other SQL 7 tools -- great if you have never used SQL Server before, but not particularly useful for programmer or DBA turned programmer trying to learn Transact-SQL. The books redeeming strength, however, comes from the clarity with which the author is able to deal with more advanced concepts such as cursors. His explanation makes the concept very accessible to a beginner. The books excellent index allows it to serve well as a reference book. All things considered, this is not the book to buy if a large portion of you work is with a database; but for a developer or DBA needing to write a little Transact-SQL and not wanting to spend three-weeks reading a book like Vieira's SQL Server Programming it could serve as a good intro book and/or quick reference."
+12659,2,"well written, but out of date","Since this book is from 1998, it's quite out of date and doesn't cover many new media or ideas from the last few years."
+12660,1,"good pan, just hope you don't need the lifetime warranty","good pan, just hope you don't need the lifetime warranty. this complaint is not pan specific. If you have read the tons of consumer complaints against Meyer corp you will see that they do NOT honor there lifetime warranty on the non stick surface. I had my pan for 2 years and the surface stopped working. we have never used the pan in the oven, nor put it in the dish washer and we don't even own anything but plastic pan utensils. all of which makes our pan a perfect candidate to be replaced. according to the website, you don't need an RMA or anything just UPS the pan. well i did. the UPS tracking shows them getting it some 4 months ago and no word from them. after checking around on line, this is typical of them. save your $10 in UPS shipping and buy a different brand. vote with your dollar and spend it else ware."

+12662,1,Do Not Buy This Book,"This book is terrible. It is written for a newbie with no experience. If you have any experience, DO NOT read this book. DO NOT even skim it. The 895 pages contain way too much filler. The first 350 pages cover basic project design methodology which is, again, intended for somoene with no experience. The remaining pages provide a basic coverage of the exam objectives, but do not provide the complexity nor the interoprerability that you will face in design scenarios. I passed the exam, but with little help from this book."
+12663,1,Stay away,"This movie is poor film qua;ity, a borring story, extremely bad acting, and the gore effects are terrible. Not a good movie in any way, shape or form."
+12664,2,A light intro to making sense of the religious right,"For many Americans, the words, actions and worldview of the religious right are incomprehensible, fearsome, and sometimes seemingly crazy. Robert Boston's engaging book, largely accounts of his personal experiences, and informed by his vast knowledge, is an excellent place for students and others seeking introductory material to start. From there, such logical companion works as Frederick Clarkson's Eternal Hostility: The Stuggle Between Theocracy and Democracy; Jean Hardisty's Mobilizing Resentment, or Boston's other books, make much more sense. Close Encounters is a good beginning for a bookshelf about the religious right in the U.S."

+12666,1,Don't buy a glass one!!,"I was looking for a cocktail shaker that had a little bit of style... just something that looked different than the typical stainless steel. Don't get me wrong, this cocktail shaker looks great. (which is why I purchased it)But upon receiving it, the little rubber around the lip that creates the tight seal was already busted when I opened the package! (it is so incredibly flimsy! Even if it arrives in one piece, it will most likely break within a few uses) With my broken seal, the shaker leaks like crazy now. Unless you don't mind shaking cocktails over your sink, look elsewhere.I did some reading online... the ""experts"" say that glass shakers can not create the ""seal"" as well as stainless steel shakers can. Buy a stainless steel one!"
+12667,1,Manufacturer of this product said I received counterfeit products.,I researched this product before I bought it through ebay.I was disappointed when the items showed signs of counterfeiting.I called the manufacturer of this product - Merial- to confirm these signs. I was told by several layers of customer service that Merial does NOT put an expiration date anywhere on the packaging of this product.Merial stated that counterfeits of their products have expiration dates.Merial sent me replacement packages of the genuine product after I mailed them the counterfeits. I had to pay for the mailing...$$.BUYER BEWARE.
+12668,2,One of the best likenesses ever,"Art Asylum basically shrunk Nimoy for this toy; the likeness is amazingly strong, especially at this scale. Probably the best figure they've ever done in their Trek line. Recommended for even a casual fan of Trek or toy collector. If you only buy one Art Asylum Trek figure, make it this one."
+12669,2,Wonderful bread knife,Originally purchased this knive for slicing bagels before freezing. Worked great and over 15 years we wore the knife out- literally wore down the serations. Was so pleased to find the exact same knife still being made and available on Amazon! I give this knife the highest possible rating for slicing any type of bread- it is a little long but works great if you have room for it in your kitchen.
+12670,1,Wusthof,"Wusthof is high quality stuff, but there is no lifetime guarantee and the handles aren't dishwasher safe. If I was going to chose a set, Cutco knives are by far the best knives in quality and price. They also have a comprehensive lifetime guarantee that makes that 10 times better than this large wusthof set."
+12671,1,Loved the idea,"Even as I was taking the tripod out of the package I was having problems. The legs were already starting to come out of the sockets just bending it around trying to straiten them, (It comes wrapped around some plastic pieces in the package to show the concept). My camera is a Canon Powershot S3 I1 that ways in at around 14.5 oz. the tripod could not hold it. While I had it sitting on my table, at least one of the legs would start sliding out causing it to fall. Also I could not get the tripod to successfully hold in place on the top rail of a chain link fence, even while using one of the legs as a support against a post. I even tried to wrap it around just the post itself with no luck. I really loved the idea of not needing a flat surface to use this portable tripod, but my experience is that they need to make some major improvements."

+12673,1,One can TWICE A DAY FOR ME!!,"Having recently had gastric bypass surgery, I rely on these shakes twice a day to keep my protein levels up into the GREAT range!! I like the FROSTY CHOCOLATE shake the best (although I've also tried the Strawberry, Banana and Vanilla), and I pour them over some crushed ice (as I like my drinks ICY cold), and it's just delicious!! In the 89 days since my surgery, I guess I've drunk 180 CANS of this stuff! WHEW!! (but I've lost 53 pounds too!) I've tried LOTS of other protein mixes, and I just really like the chocolatly smoothness of this product AND the fact that it has almost TWICE AS MANY GRAMS OF PROTEIN as a drink you mix with the dry mix! There are 35 grams of protein in each 11 ounce can!! WOOHOO!!I give it FIVE STARS, and I reccommend it to everyone I meet!"
+12674,2,Two words: Jam Jazz,"You have to hear this album to believe what everyone is saying about it. Red Clay is simply beyond category of words. During the first play of listening to this album I couln't understand why I didn't already own it and why hadn't any of my friends already turned me on to it. Red Clay just comes out and clobbers you over the head with jazz/funk/fusion/bop and whatever until you just shake your head in disbelief. Seriously, don't let this one escape your collection."
+12675,1,Bose SoundDock for Nano Black,"I got the Bose system thinking it was the best available. Having been assured that Bose is a high quality product. It has been a huge disappointment. Problematic from the get-go. Every time I take the nano out of it and put it back in, the music will not come out of the nano nor will the remote work - until I've unplugged and plugged the system in numerous times. The slightest disturbance stops all music play. I do not recommend this system for a first time user. Save your money and get something far cheaper."
+12676,2,Not What I Expected,"The movie was good. Meryl Streep is good. I couldn't help however to reflect on the movie ""Working Girl"" in which Signourey Weaver out does Meryl Streep in ""The Devil Wears Prada,"" and Melanie Griffin is great. Want to talk about a nasty rotten boss - get ""Working Girl"" and make your own comparison."
+12677,2,one of the best dvd concert,"Finally, a DVD of Nine Inch Nails has been released ! This double live DVD features more than 15 songs filmed during the Fragile 2.0 tour in North America. All the sound has been re-sampled & optimized for this DVD (5.1). You'll be surprised by the high quality of the sound and the powerful sound level you'll get from your rear speakers. The show is totally underground and industrial. The songs are a selection of Trent Reznor hits (closer, head like a hole...) and from its last CD ""the fragile"".This DVD is a must ! This is definitely one of the best live performance in DVD !"
+12678,2,Just what I wanted,"If you're looking for a classic jack-in-the-box, like you might have had as a child, this is it! Children today seem to really like it too. Makes a great gift as it's hard to find in stores."
+12679,1,All Around Bad,"We went through 2 of these monitors before giving up. The first one's ""soothing dreams"" mechanism broke, while also being static ridden. The 2nd one seemed worse on the static, so we took it back. Don't buy this."

+12681,2,My favorite bra - more colors please!,"I've had this bra for a few months and it's become my favorite. It's sturdy, pretty and comfortable; usually I can't wait to drag my bra off when I get home, but I actually forget that I'm wearing this sometimes, and that's the best endorsement for a bra, imo.I wish they had it in more colors, though. I'd buy one of each!"
+12682,1,IF YOU CARE ABOUT TWEETER SOUND DO NOT BUY THESE,got it installed rather easily but the sound was empty in the higher frequencies VERY TINNEY. if you don't care about the quality then get them. these are very poorly made speakers. it is not a good deal
+12683,1,The best book on Luther,"I first read this book over forty years ago and a recent return has not changed my original reaction. Luther came to life for me because of this book. It is readable, stimulating, suggestive for further reading in substantial books on theology. I've given talks on Luther and warmly recommended it to many people; they've agreed with my enthusiasm and made me glad that I could share this giant of the church with them. It's authoritative, insightful, and even funny. Bainton knew his stuff and although a master of his subject, managed to share Luther and his times without being stuffy or stiff."
+12684,1,I wish there were 0 stars,"I bought this - transferred 200GB of data to it, and next time I used it all the data, and the format of the drive was gone. It said I needed to reformat the drive. This has happened twice now. With so many people claiming this is defective it is no wonder they are on sale everywhere.A small note: The 1TB version works great."
+12685,2,This Is The First Ambient Recording!!!,"This is truly a groundbreaking disc, if you are into ambient at all this is a MUST OWN!!!"
+12686,2,"A good, light mystery","Personally, I liked this book better than the first. Maybe it was because the story included a trip or two to York Minister, which appealed to the medievalist in me! Realistically, I thought that the mystery included a few more twists & turns than the first book (though not as many laugh-out-loud moments) so it was more intellectually engaging. Hayden is still attempting to channel the ghost of Raymond Chandler with the same brain-aching results as in the first book. He's still running the choir at St. Barnabas and is still coming up with esoteric tidbits about liturgical history and musical history. Last, but not least, he's still dealing with the 'characters' that populate St. Germaine.This was an enjoyable light read for those who don't want their mysteries too 'cozy' and who enjoy a good dose of humor and subtle satire.Note on Kindle formatting: Very good to excellent. I did not notice any issues while reading this book."
+12687,1,good quality belts with poor quality tape/glue,"Out of the box of 5 belts, 2 had failed within a few minutes of use (tape holding the belt together came apart) Contacting 3M resulted in a fast reply but they just passed the buck to Amazon.comAmazon.com did nothing to help me other than to waste my time discussing the problem on the phone. I will never buy 3M sanding belts in the future as I need quality/reliable sanding belts"
+12688,1,Too small!,The 38 C/D is more like a 34 B! Ridiculous. Can't even wear the thing. I hate that I thought I was buying a snug sleep bra and now I have nothing.
+12689,2,"'SIMPLY THE BEST"" Norm from South Aussie","This album was one of the first Conniff ones i owned on Vinyl I still go back to it & find it one of my favourites.Brilliant use of voices without the Conniff chorus .Rich,mellow,soul stirring music; to me that i can completely lose myself in.I consider myself so lucky to be in Mr.Conniff music era.My favourite tracks would be ""The way you look tonight & I've Told every Star"
+12690,2,Great game for all ages,"This game is simple to learn, but difficult to master -- as advertised. A five yr old can play, and so can an old man -- the only limits for both is a little bit of dexterity in placing the marbles. Good game for spacial orientation visualization, and logic. The game never gets boring as infinite variations are possible -- although with two skilled players the variations narrow (since you know what doesn't work). Only real limit is it's a two player game. Easy to take on trips and a good ""icebreaker"" game, since it is fairly simple to teach even with limited language skills."
+12691,2,Flight of the Navigator,"I'm not one to put a curse word in front of my children or grand children. I would have rated this 5 stars if it didn't have the unnecessary minor use of a few words. They really didn't need to be there. Other than that, great flick."
+12692,2,CLEOPATRA - A WONDERFUL SOUNDTRACK,"Cleopatra which has the music by that fine composer of Film and Televison score's Trevor Jones begins with ""Cleopatra"" which instantly takes you to Alexandria. The next track is the more laid back ""Egypt Is Yours For Only One Day"" as each wonderful track unfolds we continue the journey of 'Cleopatra's' life, as you listen to this stirring Soundtrack you feel as if you are in Egypt with it's conflicts and battles at the time, plus all the romance as Cleopatra captures the heart of the two most powerful men in the world. This again is an outstanding Soundtrack by Trevor Jones and I just cannot stop playing it. If you are into Soundtracks I recommend that you add 'Cleopatra' to your collection as I am sure you will not be disappointed."
+12693,1,Beware! You want the Import CD.,"Just a word of warning here...Take a look at the track list. A mere 11 tracks comprise this release.The Import version is the one you want, that has over 20 tracks, making this release irrelevant."

+12695,2,Earthsong Review,The book has the most amazing photographs that truly celebrate the Earth. I would highly recommend this work of art. It's spectacular and I'm certainly glad I purchased it.
+12696,2,"Condensed, but that's why it's called a Pocket Guide...",Good overview and quick read on the subject. It is a great resource if you are just starting a study on Islam or if you need a quick review. Does not go into too much detail so that is where it is lacking but I think that was the purpose for writing this book.Because it gives a fair understanding of Islam and I believe accomplished what it wanted to be.
+12697,1,Disappointed - they tricked me,"I feel cheated in some way. I heard Jack Blades and Tommy Shaw on The Howard Stern Show playing ACOUSTIC versions of these songs. I liked the sound a lot. Then I bought the CD and found that none of the songs on the CD are acoustic at all.I'm a big Jack Blades and Tommy Shaw fan otherwise I wouldn't have purchased the CD at all, but these songs are really just cheap karaoke versions of great songs. Shaw-Blades bring nothing new to them. The sound is VERY watered down. Like Muzak in an elevator. My advice would be to just buy the original versions of these songs as performed by the original artists.I'll show mercy and give it two stars (which it doesn't deserve) because I did like California Dreamin' (although even with that one give me the original).Shame on you Shaw-Blades, are you really that hard up for money at this point in your career that you need to release a karaoke CD ?"
+12698,2,"Easy install, a little too small, works well.","Good product, easy to install on pretty much any car. I really should have bought a larger tach, but it does the job. Seems pretty accurate and face of guage fits the decor of any vehicle."
+12699,2,mindless entertainment,"definitely worth seeing. Lots of funny scenes. If you are looking for a no thought, relax and laugh movie, this is it."
+12700,1,Not interesting,"I was looking for something better than this. It was a coloring book and I thought it was a reading book. It did have good coloring pictures, but I was looking for something more. I was disappointed when it arrived. My fault I just didn't realize it was a coloring book."
+12701,1,America Just Doesn't Get It...,"American Idol is usually pretty stupid, but season four was a straight-up joke. Carrie Underwood stole the hearts of millions of Americans. I just wasn't one of them. She rocketed to the top of the charts, but I wasn't buyin'. Now, this hippie trash Bo Bice comes out of nowhere, and becomes an inspiration for rockers worldwide. Yeah, scary thought, I know. Bo Bice is grade-A trash. This isn't rock. This is generic, recycled mainstream America corporate rock. Like so many other Idol contestants, he has no talent. And now he's burning up the charts. Just another sad reminder of how musically retarded America can be."
+12702,2,Hauntingly Inspirational,"I ran to buy this CD after seeing ""The Passion"" and I have nothing but an excellent rating for this soundtrack.The music is haunting and wraps you in a cloak of inspiration. Perfect of meditating, praying, pondering life as well as relaxing after a long day. I personally find arabic type music breathtaking and many songs on this CD carry whispers of instruments that are not often heard on American CD's. You are able to envision biblical times, with harems and tribes and all that life offered even the tragedy and triumph of Christ. John Debney has orchestrated a masterful soundtrack that I highly recommend for those of you spiritually inclined."
+12703,2,Either you'll love it or hate it,"Godkiller definitely isn't targeting any mainstream audience. What it does do, however, is create a vivid post-apocalyptic world with an animation style of its own. I happen to love effective minimalism and Godkillers does that extraordinarily well. The story itself is so gritty and the sound design and acting are so well done that you quickly get over that fact that this is more of an futuristic slideshow than a full on animated film. This is a great peace of work with a vivid illustration style that will keep your attention. The sex and violence aren't for the faint of heart (or anyone under 18) but it's definitely worth the watch."
+12704,1,Did a Writing 101 student write this book?,"This book is really, really not good. Topping my list of complaints is how thinly the characters are written. One character is not distinguishable from the next. The plot is not well developed and unbelievable. My biggest complaint (and this goes back to the characters) is what a miserable heroine Isabelle is. She radiates dullness and doesn't really do anything. This book really does appear to be the effort of a writing student, and I couldn't help but think, ""How was this book ever published?"" I gave this 2 stars only because it was published, so maybe there's some greatness here that I don't see, and also because Ms. Bloom does appear to catch up a little towards the end of the novel.Bottom line, you will be disappointed."
+12705,2,Love it,"great purchase, worth the money. get for peace of mind. i bought a second camera for my daughter's room and i use them daily."
+12706,1,False Advertised,"Now don't get me wrong: I love Green Day Dookie. The problem with this shipment is that in the product detail they say it's the 180 Gram Vinyl LP. I do not know if they shipped me a wrong copy, but the copy I received was not 180G. I am still dealing with the process to get a 180 Gram copy. Shipping was super fast and the product came in great condition. I just don't appreciate receiving the product and not getting it as described. MAKE SURE TO VERIFY YOU GET 180G Vinyl from this seller if it's in the product description you order!"
+12707,1,Comes off in Chunks,I brought my pup one of this when he started to finish his Puppy Nylabone too quickly. At first he didn't take it because it didn't smell like anything. I slowly played with him with this bone and he took it. Then he just ripped them into huge chunks! He even swallowed some and vomited afterward! This are way too soft they should make it a bit stronger and add more flavoring.
+12708,2,Gootsie,Tootsie rolls are Gootsie rolls. I ate the whole bag while watching the Broncos beat the J-E-T-S......don't know what I enjoyed more. Both were great!
+12709,2,Well made but could be improved,"These sconces had the look we were seeking, so no complaints there. They are well made, as you'd expect for the price. They came complete with everything you need to hang and wire them except for a way to support the fixture while terminating the wires, which had to be improvised. One shortcoming I found is that the socket rotates within the fixture until you screw on the locking ring that secures the glass globe. So this locking ring must be tightened securely (a little wrench is provided to do this) in order to screw in a light bulb. Also, there's no parts list, so I'm not sure how you would get another if you broke a globe."
+12710,1,What's with the price??,How can a Kindle book be more expensive than a paperback? At the time of this review the Kindle version was sold at $13.99 and the paperback was $10.88.
+12711,1,Compatability Problems,If you are using an IBM computer with this KVM switch it will not work. The user manual suggests a work around which I tried but it did not work consistently. Trying to get tech support from Linksys was also difficult and anything beyond 1st level support was non-existent.
+12712,2,Built to last,"I did EXTENSIVE research when I set out to find a shredder. I did NOT want a shredder that would go kaput on me after the one year warranty would expire, as all my previous ones had. This one is nice and big - you can shred for a long, long time before you'd have to empty out that basket. It feels solid. It has a separate slot for shredding CDs. It has a good, no a great warranty - more than your standard one year warranty. It had a super customer satisfaction percentage. So far I'm one happy camper!"
+12713,1,UMM.... WHAT CAN I SAY?,"First off, was she her own editor? Because there were a lot of mistakes in this book, the more I read the madder I got. Most of the time the book didn't make sense. I paid way too much for this book and it was only 100 some pages, and it didn't have any kind of meaning. I take that back the meaning of this book showed me that she was DUMB & STUPID AS HELL. DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY. Buy Fly on the Wall by Trista Russell it's better and cheaper."
+12714,1,Not that great,"It grates cheese well. My biggest problem is that when the metal parts rub together while cranking, it tends to get metal particles in the grated cheese. I would never buy this product again."
+12715,1,Worked great for about 6 months,"I loved this thing when I got it and used it every day during my train commute to and from work. It worked fantastic ... the sound was awesome and it was more than loud enough with the sony headphones I bought for it. I recommend buying aftermarket headphones since the headphones that come with it are big and [crazy] looking and don't sound too great. Then all of a sudden one day the headphone jack (where you plug the headphones in) just stopped working. For a while if I twisted the little plug the right way it would work, but then it just stopped working alltogether. I tried three other pairs of headphones including the ones it came with, and none of them worked. Hopefully mine was an isolated case, but I don't think I would ever buy this again."
+12716,2,Excellent Gift,I purchased this screenplay as a gift for my husband and it was a BIG hit! For a used copy it was just like brand new!
+12717,2,A very good video Biography of Joni,"At the time of writing this, I am just cutting the surface of Joni's music. This Biography has deepened my understanding of Joni. Interesting to note how she adapts to a new period and always re-invents herself. She has never gone after pop music but stayed personal in her approach. I especially enjoyed her speaking of her guitar playing and she referred to her strange guitar tunings as a ""Chords or Inquiry"". There is much to absorb here, and I've found myself watching it about 3 times up to now. It is a good launching point if you are preparing to experience Joni's music and there are many performance bits from various periods."
+12718,2,Fantastic,"Well, I'd say that wainting for more than a year to the right of getting a Kindle - given that I live in Brazil - has been worthwhile and a great experience. As a fanatic reader for many years, I was never get caught by any other paperless atempts to replace traditional books - I have more than 2,500 at home. Last week I was in a fishing trip in the Amazon and besides lures, rods and all that stuff, had my Kindle with me."
+12719,2,Some not so well known facts,"This show actually started on a Canadian network, then ABC picked it up at the last minuteand never had time to properly market it. Admittetly, they never gave it time with only airing 6 shows outof the 13 or 14 they made.Watched an interview where some weird things were disclosed, like the really hot female astronaut was actuallychanging into a man etc. It had such potential, but I never understood why the scifi channel didn't jump on itas BSG had ended."
+12720,1,Dont' buy him another Luxury car.,Norm Willis writes alot of book for the purpose of making money and is a great sales man.. Before he was a six figure Pastor he was a drug dealer and then after that he was the number one salesman at a paper supply company.. Norm is money and power hungery and don't add to his pockets by buying this book. Just take a look at his church web site.
+12721,2,Surprisingly effective,"I would never have purchased this book because I think up mental challenges and have philosophical discussions with my kids all the time. If I saw this book on a shelf I would snobbishly pass it by. Why would I need a list of questions when I do so well on my own?Fortunately, someone gave me this book as a gift and it turned out to be a big hit. I don't know what it is, maybe my kids are more impressed by questions coming out of an ""authoritative"" book instead of daddy snatching ideas out of thin air, but they love it.It really does get my kids' minds going and many times I learn new things about them. Parents who are concerned about inappropriate questions only have to skip those questions. It's no big deal.Bottom line: This book is a good buy for parents who want to raise children who think.--Guy P. Harrison, author ofRace and Reality: What Everyone Should Know About Our Biological Diversityand50 Reasons People Give for Believing in a God-"
+12722,2,Pretty Good,"Contrary to the other reviews,I didn't have any problems with these headphones. I had them hooked up in a few minutes, it was very simple. The only thing to wait for is the batteries to charge. I walked around the house and outside without any problems and was outside before I had a little distortion, but nothing too major. I wear a size 7 and 3 quarters baseball hat and had no trouble with these fitting my huge head. They are adjustable to somebody much smaller and also much larger than myself. I do think this is a great product considering JVC website has them for 130 bucks and I bought them on Ebay for 18 bucks new in the box. I will be buying these for my friends and family for Christmas, an excellent product."
+12723,1,My camera fell out.,"When I put the case on my belt, my Stylus 400 camera kept falling out. In the end I lost the camera that way. Too bad I didn't think of getting a different case."
+12724,1,Not as good as the others,"Although 3rd in the series, and it picks up where the 2nd one left off, it has a pretty weak story line, and jumps around too much. Didn't care for it as much as the 2nd one. Excellent fight scenes! just a weak story...."
+12725,1,Not recommended,"Although the novel starts sort of promising, it soon collapses into a long, boring and quite predictable story.If the text was trimmed to half of its actual size, then maybe it would have been an average book.But it is not.There are much better books out there to spend your time on. So don't waste it with ""Picture Perfect""."
+12726,1,"Don't buy this book, just use common sense.","I agree with another review posted above-- don't waste your money on this book. I was looking for concrete, real things to do with my preschooler. The book suggests things like keeping a candle on your table and lighting it, then blowing it out, after each child says a prayer before every meal. I can't see how that's sharing the Catholic faith, nor does it seem practical. It also suggests things like taking your child to church, teaching them the sign of the cross, and praying with them.... all of which are common sense to most parents."
+12727,2,Best strings I've ever used,"On a friends recommendation I put them on a 'beater' ovation that I use when playing outside or with alternate tunings. They are now going on every guitar I own :) .Get 'em, you won't be disappointed."
+12728,2,Why isn't season two out yet???,"A truly great show. For those poor misguided souls who think that the end of ""Friends"" was any loss to the entertainment world--grow up, watch ""Barney Miller,"" and learn to accept that Schwimmer, LeBlanc, and the rest of the Central Perk crew don't know anything about comedy. (Or acting, for that matter.) BRING ON SEASON 2!!!"
+12729,2,Very Nice Bike!,"Even without instructions it was fairly easy to put together. It is probably a little heavier than a more expensive bike, but that shouldn't be an issue for the type of rider that would buy this bike anyway. It appears to be very well made and entirely suited to neighborhood and paved-trail riding."
+12730,1,Unraveled,Looks great but edge stitching unraveled the first time it was washed. Returned them to Amazon.
+12731,1,Don't buy this remote....,"I will make this review very simple. No matter what features you find attractive about this remote, its shear size makes the thing clunky and unuseable. Unless you have large hands, you will have trouble accessing all the buttons without 2 handing it. (make sure you go to a retail store and hold it first before you buy it)In terms of features, the remote has only the simplest of ""learning"" features. If you want a custom interface for a piece of hardware it doesn't have a code for.... good luck."
+12732,1,One Book was Enough,"When Elizabeth Berg wrote ""Revenge of the Middle-Age Woman"" I thought it was one of the best books of the year, especially for woman who were in the situation that was the main theme of the book. However, she decided to write a sequel which, in my mind, was totally unnecessary. I think at the end of the first book, the story was complete, knowing how the situation would turn out. Are we supposed to feel sorry for Minty???? Do we need to know that Nathan had made a tragic mistake and, the more he suffers, the happier we are. Forget this one...."
+12733,2,One of the Top 10 Risk Management Books of 2004,"If you ever have a corporate meltdown that challenges your company s brand identity, reputation, or good name, you definitely need this small, yet practical, book. It packs a powerful punch in a tiny package.Kevin Quinley, for Claims magazine"
+12734,2,Everything I Wanted Only It Was Late,"I got everything i wanted except it was late, but the owner said it was for personnel reasons. Also he gave me extra tweezers. It was a little smaller than I thought it would be. Overall I would give it 5 stars, only it was late so i'm giving it 4 stars. I suggest you try to get it from swissarmyknifepro he is the person who I got it from."
+12735,2,don't miss this one,"I have never heard anything quite like Esthero's latest offering. This album is one of the most entertaining and fullfilling albums that i have ever heard. it packs so much into one disc and the best part is that, even though all of the music is very different, it all seems to fit into a cohesive package that is accesible and fun. this music will have you at once shaking your ass and feeling contemplative about life. Do not miss this album!!!! It is fantastic!!!"
+12736,1,Piece of Junk,"...the head twists off if you apply even the smallest amount of presure. On top of that, the soap pours out when the head twists off, because this is where you fill the dispenser."
+12737,1,Crapped out after a year,"It worked fine for a little less than a year after I bought it, for use with a Panasonic Lumix camera. It worked, nothing too flashy, but then it's a memory card. But about a month ago it started to crap out - first one ""memory read error"" wiping out all the pictures then stored on it. Then it became more regular, and now does not work at all.I mean, I guess I can't get too upset about it crapping out when it only cost $[...] or whatever it was, but still, I'm planning on staying away from Transcend for at least my next memory card."
+12738,1,Poor design makes this an unsafe car seat,"We bought this as 2nd car seat. Price was right. It is horrible. We are returning it and buying a 2nd, yes 2nd, Britax Roundabout. Even though the Britax is more than twice the price it's worth it. The Comfort Sport was difficult to install. I echo what other reviewers have said -- for rear facing it's nearly impossible to access the release button to loosen the straps. But what's worse -- you can't always tighten the straps! You have to struggle and struggle -- take your baby out, adjust straps, put back in. It's horrible!!! A design flaw -- the straps are one long piece -- causes them to become uneven, so when you are trying to tighten one side, the strap is tight across your baby's chest on one side and loose on the other! It is so frustrating. Believe me, the money spent on the Britax is worth it for peace of mind -- no worries that I won't be able to tighten it while I'm out somewhere. Seriously, avoid this car seat at all costs."
+12739,2,Innovative and Powerful,"I popped in the cd without looking at the cover. It wasn't until ""Imagine"" started that I realized this was a cd filled mostly with cover songs. HOWEVER...APC managed to arrange every song to make it sound original. I was blown away by the power behind each arrangement, especially ""Fiddle and the Drum.""Forget political correctness - all the songs covered on the cd came from artists who cared enough to step forward and make their voices heard. I applaud APC for giving us all a kick in the rear."
+12740,2,Scratch Art,"Great Game & Toy for 6-7 year olds. I also believe that children up to the age of 11 would enjoy it, as my grand children did. Great fun time and can be carried anywhere."
+12741,1,Dermot Mulroney tries hard to lift this,"I'm a big fan of Dermot Mulroney's work. He was underrated in ""My Best Friend's Wedding,"" understated in ""About Schmidt"" (when he could have gone completely over the top), and under-appreciated in the cult gem ""Living in Oblivion."" He's (by far) the standout in this thin film (clocking in at about 1 hr 17 mins), which is a watered-down attempt at sort of a quasi-reverse ""Pretty Woman.""The movie is an adaptation of Elizabeth Young's novel ""Asking for Trouble."" The book seems to have its fans as good chick-lit: it has a 4.5 rating from 81 reviewers here on amazon. And, the film does have its moments. Still, there were stretches of 10 - 15 minutes of absolute silence from the audience. Never a good sign for something going for at least a few laughs. This is one of those films where everything good about it is packed into the trailer, leaving absolutely nothing to question (except the one little twist which provides a fairly good kick at the end)."
+12742,2,On a Rainy Day...,"Just bought this recording on Vinyl at Amoeba in SF for a very reasonable price. I consider myself a fan of Jackie McLean but I checked out the other amazon reviews on my phone at the store before I purchased it. Must say I really enjoy it and I even like the banter on the first cut. It is interesting to hear how the musicians interact with each other and the language they use since it was recorded in 1957. The music is of a high quality and the sound is very good as well. If you like Jackie McLean(and you should) this is a nice addition to your collection although I agree not an essential purchase. However, it is nice to have music that is little known and is not owned by most people. It's like you are in an exclusive (music) club. Great to Play on a Rainy Day Like Today in Nor Cal"
+12743,1,This book is poorly edited and omits important information.,"This book looks good, but as I used it to study I found some big issues.First, it's poorly edited.I found many typos, and the answers to the test exam for Chapter 13 are WRONG.In some cases they offered information that did not work. For instance, I could not get the ""WriteProperties"" event to fire for a persistable public class even though I followed their instructions to the letter (this may be a VB6 bug).Second, the authors claim to have covered skills in the exam matrix in certain chapters. However, after reading those chapters I found they hadn't covered them at all. A good example is the 70-176(21) skill (Using the Visual Component Manager). They were supposed to have covered this in Chapter 21, but included only a passing reference to it.If you use this book, you'd better double-check everything the authors say, and you'll need to refer to VB's documentation and other sources to get the full dope."
+12744,2,Connecting with all of life,"I'd been practising the Metta Bhavana (Development of Kindness) in it's traditional form for about 25 years when I came across Vidyamala and Sona's adaptation of it. I think both ways of doing it are very good, but Vidyamala and Sona have adapted the practice specifically for people suffering from chronic pain and/or other chronic conditions, and I think it works very well. It helps you to empathise first with your own suffering, but then to expand outwards to use your pain as a point of empathy with all beings. Fantastic!"
+12745,1,In the implosion zone ....,"I found this title by accident, and the irony was too great to pass up. We are signing the closing documents tomorrow on a house here in Sonoma County, CA that is down 36% from when it last sold in November 2006. The house is a foreclosure, owned by IndyMac Bank, stock price $0.06 per share at this writing.Added hilarity comes from the two testimonials, one gushing from a former govenor of the federal reserve, the other equally non-reasoned from the Chief Economist of Fannie Mae. Oops, they just got taken into receivership by the Treasury Department!Unfortunately real people were harmed by this advice. Buyer beware, of course, but you would think folks in positions of authority would have a little more temperance. But then you would have thought wrong. Maybe that's why I have so little respect for authority ..."
+12746,1,This album is not up to par with his past albums,"I have to say, as a huge Rod Stewart fan, that I was really disappointed in this album. After hearing Rod's version of Oh La La, I ran out and bought the album. None of the other tracks sounded very good. Also, I didn't find the lyrics very catchy."
+12747,1,Do not buy!,Is not compatible with xbox 360. The game itself is really fun but the it will not run on xbox 360.
+12748,2,art supplies to go with easel,I bought this set of art supplies to go with the easel for my Granddaughter for Christmas. It was nice because everything a child would need to paint with is in this set. She's having lots of fun with it.
+12749,1,some good info but too dogmatic,"There is definitely good information to be found in this book. However, it is wrapped up in a lot of preaching and dogmatism about breastfeeding. LLL is a great organization, but it does sometimes tend towards the radical when it comes to promoting breastfeeding. The book is too optimistic, making women believe they will be able to breastfeed without too much trouble, and that breastfeeding is amazingly convenient and all-around wonderful. This is just not realistic. I am extremely pro-breastfeeding, but the truth is that some women do have significant trouble, and a small minority will not be able to breastfeed. This book seems to demean those women. I also think the book has a bit too much extra judgemental ""advice"" on parenting and working as a mother (this is referring to a previous edition, not the 7th, so I don't know what's been changed).If you're looking for an excellent book on breastfeeding, I highly recommend Dr. Mom's Guide to Breastfeeding."
+12750,2,Great peace of work,"This cd really brings out the best on Lynwood slim's vocals.If you love Jump, Swing-blues, then you'll love this too."
+12751,2,Sonny Please,"Sonny Please~ Sonny Rollins is a good jazz album with the ""immortal"" saxophone player Sonny Rollins. I am not a total jazz fan and I can therefore not say that I absolutely loved this album. Still and all one can not deny genius when one hears and Mr Rollins is definitely that. Being a more casual listener I view it as great background music and I view jazz this way. As something that you turn on after a hard day at work, open a cold beer and relax."
+12752,2,Good Product and Service,Very nice sotware that comes with the label placement tool to properly center the label. Uses other vendors labels as well. Comes on the CD with lots of good graphics as well. I was able to pull pictures from the web and easily place them on a label. The only complaint I had was the putting the text on the label is not overly intuitive. They have upgraded to allow you import CD contents for music CDs.
+12753,2,Outstanding!,The item is beautiful and carefully wrapped and packaged and the transaction was easy. This is a quality item that I would easily purchase another when I need another wonderful gift. I liked it so much myself I wanted to keep it instead of giving it as a gift.
+12754,2,"A Cute, Organized Room!","Baskets make a great place for all the little things you need for your baby, and they keep clutter hidden! I really like these, and they make your shelves look neat. I actually could use more for the rest of the house! I used them for all the little necessities on the changing table, now and use them for small toys. Just pull out the basket & let your little one dig through, put them back when you're done. You can find baskets like this elsewhere, and they are all great for organizing in the sizes that fit your shelves best."
+12755,1,IRRELEVANT,"I bought this book on the recommendation somewhere of some agent, in a list of books he said every novelist should have. But I found it irrelevant. Too left-brain for me. The question about writing fiction is this: How do you make it all come together -- the story, the narrative voice, the main character in motion, some kind of meaning, realistic detail, etc. -- to create the magic that is fiction? We want to lose ourselves in an imaginary world. How do you make that happen? I didn't find the answer here."
+12756,2,Dr.Quinn Medicine Woman the complete series,"I never really saw much of the show when it aired but what i did see was very very good. So when this one came up for sale I bought it, cause I knew I couldn't loose. You won't either enjoy."
+12757,1,Not the same!,"I have purchased this soap before, and what I received was NOT the creamy white, milky, vanilla coconut soap that I have had before. Instead, what I received was a brown in color soap that in NO way smelled of vanilla coconut. Not even close. Very disappointed."
+12758,1,Perform poorly after about a dozen uses,"As 'NLee the Engineer' noted: ""[These batteries] long term self-discharge rate is disappointing.""That's exactly my experience. I purchased these for using with Wii remotes, and they become discharged within a couple weeks of light use. The remote sensor on battery life also cannot give an accurate reading with these, which leads me to believe that they cannot maintain a proper voltage... perhaps there's still juice left, but if the batteries are unable to maintain a stable and proper voltage, then the cannot run many devices that require AA batteries.I've found these to be on par with much cheaper rechargeable batteries that I've purchased. I won't buy Sony batteries again."

+12760,2,I gotta give some props to this song!,"I gotta give some props to this song. It's just a fun song with fun lyrics and the video just makes me happy (ah, what I would give to be just in one of those classic rap videos with all the bikini girls and swimming pools). Anyway, too bad this music is pretty much inane lyrically. At least they're not negative though. --Kelly Magovern"
+12761,1,dont buy,The product is very flimsey did not work at all broke as soon as I tryed to put the first one on. Then tryed second one and wouldn't hold to sheets in little clips. This sucks don't buy
+12762,2,I'm a Believer,"I got turned onto Rhett Miller from Paste magazine. Included a disc featuring a song from this album. I bought ""Instigator"" first and it took a few listens, but it grew on me with many great songs on it. Bought ""Believer"" and feel it's equally as great if not better with some more upbeat music jangles. Still shares the same haunting lyrics about love, life and the feelings once expressed and so on. Really great CD and unlike Instigator, I found myself listening to Believer and singing out loud."
+12763,2,A Keeper,"This is an extraordinary book. A friend sent to me and I just had to share copies with friends and family. There is lots of bad news in the world, this book explains the relationship between suffering and meaning and how challenges become stepping stones to growth. It lifted me up. The stories stay with you. I find myself coming back to this book again and again. It's a keeper."
+12764,2,Get It While You Can!,"Sorry to see that this amazing set has been deleted; it's easily one of the most interesting and rewarding jazz albums I've come across in years. A unique instrumental lineup of tenor saxophone, French horn, two basses and drums; first-rate playing from all hands; and the tingling atmosphere which only a truly inspired date can evoke all make A CHANGE of PACE well worth the time of any serious jazz fan. Those familiar with Johnny Griffin from his more typically furious blowing sessions of the 1950s and '60s will be awestruck by the delicacy he displays here; and anyone as yet unfamiliar with the great tenorman could find no better place to start getting to know him. One can only hope that another edition of this very special album will see the light of day soon; in the meantime, anyone who can still manage to grab it is advised to do so."
+12765,2,Works great on iBook 1.2Ghz,Not much to say - it just works as expected on my iBook 1.2Ghz (Mac OS X 10.3) with both mine and my wife's Sony Ericsson T637 phones.
+12766,1,variable quality,"I think the CD I received from Amazon a few weeks ago is the same as the one I am reviewing. My CD is called ""The Tenors"" and features Pavarotti, Domingo and Carreras. The recordings of Domingo and Carreras were of good quality, but not so for those of Pavarotti. The sound was extremely variable and some portions were barely audible. Some of Pavarotti's selections included female vocalists, but no credits were given. Overall, I was disappointed in the CD."
+12767,2,Idk,I didn't they gave me this book. It was a lot of pages that was boring but hey the good part about it was I got smart yah! I am a genus. If wanna be a genus read this book but that is all I have to say about this I mean it is not a book it is a really long dictionary I ever read before.
+12768,1,one of A&E's weaker efforts ....wait for TYSON or buy the Ringside DVDs,"Hi,I can't recommend this DVD unless you can buy it for under $5. There are ""stills"" where fight footage should be and too many non-important talking heads blabbing about Mike and not enough Mike talking. The new movie ""TYSON"" is out in the UK and will be out over here soon and is much much better. The two out of print ESPN DVDs are both HIGHLY superior to this tabloid styled bio DVD. I'm very disappointed in A&E; , they usually deliver."

+12771,1,Couldn't give it a lower rating.,"I work for an engineering design company, so when our kettle failed we took it apart to see what went wrong. What we found out was startling! THE UNIT IS ACTUALLY DESIGNED FOR FAILURE!!! It will certainly work for several months, but after that it cannot possibly continue to function. The bottom base is pressed into the plastic shell with a cheap rubber seal between the heating element and the plastic case. After a limited number of uses the rubber seal will begin to leak and you will have water all over your counter. Even more so, if someone inadvertently heats the unit with too little water you will likely have instant failure (but then they can say it is your fault- good one!). Do yourself a favor and AVOID THIS PRODUCT."

+12773,1,What the heck?,"When you sit down to write a review and want to compare one volume with another it is a very good idea to know the name of the volume with which you want to compare it. Here in the reviews of the Time Almanac which is a middling work a reviewer compares it to a $90 Oxford almanac--a volume which does not exist. The best small almanac in the past has been the World Almanac because of its accessibility and vast volumes of material. I bought it every even numbered year because it went to press after the elections and therefore I could use it as a reference for political who's who. This year I wasted my money because not only did it not wait for the elections, it did not wait for the World Series. A pox upon it."
+12774,1,And I thought guys wrote ridiculous advice books...,"on this subject. Ladies, if you want to better improve your chances in finding that right man, don't read this book. If a woman was to ever pull this stuff on me, I would stop calling her. Geeez! ""Don't talk to him for too long over the phone""?! ""Be mysterious and quite when on that first date""?! I want to be with a woman who is fun to be with. One who asks me questions and wants to know about me and my life. A man likes it when she shows him interest. Ask him out on a date every once in awhile. Read THE REAL RULES. Now that's a good book."

I have wasted so much money as I am the headphone queen! please be wise & get Sony to improve the folding type!!"
+12777,1,Disappointed,"Works great except the batteries burn out very, very quickly. Considering it uses watch batteries, that's way too expensive. Don't like this product because of that."

+12780,1,Big Mistake Buying It,"I wrote down Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan about 5 years ago. Apparently I had heard one by this artist back then that appealed to me. Well, I finally decided I'd waited long enough to get it, and so, even though my money was tight, I said, ""What the heck; I'm going to finally get it!"" I couldn't wait to hear it. Boy, was I disappointed! It's been a BIG mistake! I am now going to return it. Maybe one of the others is good, but I definitely would not recommend this one!!"
+12781,1,useless,Very dissappointed with this book. I did not find it at all helpful in planning a blue and white living room. The information was more common sense than proffessional advice and education.
+12782,2,Nice for the price,I have big girl legs and need something a little longer to be comfortable and this was perfect. It's nicer then the picture..very light and shiny.
+12783,2,A Great Set!,"I purchased this set a few month's back, been so impressed with them, that I went out of my way to offer a review. They are extremely durable, I put something very hot in one of them and it was no problem. Also, they are very easy to clean (a plus to us who have no dishwasher) I just filled the very dirty bowl with water and in 5 minutes, all the stuck on food came off with a quick brush stroke. They are great to use for holding potato chips or other snacks, because of their colors. They are very easy on the wrists when used for mixing, because they are deeper with a smaller cirumfrance than other mixing bowls. I really can't believe that I got such a great set at such an inexpensive price."

+12785,2,Don't Miss This One,"This little book--14 pages--is one of the most moving stories I have ever read. When the author was 13, he spent most of his free time in the woods hunting and camping. He was befriended by a black lab whose tag identified him only as Ike. Every time he would go into the woods Ike would be there to hunt with him, retrieve game, sleep beside him, and listen to his problems. Then, quite abruptly, Ike disappeared and it was 30 years before the author learned what had happened. It was not what he had feared. I have read IKE multiple times and it never fails to make me cry. This book may not be worth much in terms of paper but the story is worth a fortune. It won't take much of your time and you will never forget it."
+12786,1,Not in my taste,"I'm your average 30 year old whose in to tech, cars, and thought this might be somewhat interesting. I found it absolutely uninteresting. I think they're targeting the 40+ community or the uber-boring uber-office job oriented folks. Consider it the Readers Digest for 40 year olds."
+12787,1,Not her most inspired effort,"While its importance in bringing r&b fused dance music to the mainstream should not go unregarded, there's still no hiding that Madonna's self titled debut contains mostly shallow dance/pop songs with even shallower lyrics. It sounds dated almost to cringe inducing levels.Top Cuts: Holiday, Borderline, Burning Up"
+12788,1,CerwinVega quality has dropped since being bought by Stanton Group,"I bought this sub expecting great things, and overall I was disappointed. The sub does pack a lot of bass, but generally it's boomy, loose bass without real punch or control. The louder you turn it up the louder the boomy, hummy bass becomes, but it never transcends to the kick/thump you want. Also, and this is my biggest gripe with the unit, after a few months of use the amp started to die and now the sub makes a cracking noise any time it's in standby and sometimes even when it's on. It pops, snaps, and generally annoys me so much that I've replaced it with a Klipsch SUB-12 that goes MUCH lower and sounds much more controlled. It also has a lot more power for solid kicks. I think CerwinVega is just a name now, the quality is gone since the company was sold to the Stanton Group, a Chinese consortium that makes the subs at bottom dollar, slaps the CW name on them. Buyer beware."
+12789,1,...quite boring...,"I am a great Natalie fan. I found ""Ask a woman who know"" simply delicious...so this new album is quite surprysing to me as it is boring, dull....she still has a nice voice, but most of the songs don't catch the listener. At least, they didn't attrack my attention...with the exception of ""Day dreaming"" and ""The more you do it""......I hope next album is better than this.In the meantime, let's hope we get a new album from the greatest voice of all time... our dear Whitney nowadays seems to be ready to give us some hot material. She is in our prayers."
+12790,1,Too much trouble to adjust and configure,"Pros: If you can ever get the color setting correct, it's a nice display.Cons: I have spent hours and hours playing around with the color, brightness and contrast settings and it's still not right. Also, the display is so bright that colors looks washed out with no contrast.If you want a plug-and-play monitor, don't buy this one. I wanted it for general business use and Web dev and it just eats up my time to get a decent picture. My previous LCDs (NEC, KDS) I could unpack, plug in and have the OPTION to play with the settings. This display REQUIRES that you configure it and it eats up way too much time. I have been unable to strike a balance between good color and brightness/contrast. It's particularly bad with applications (Outlook, IE, Foxfire, FrontPage, Word, etc.). I feel like I want everything bold so I can see it better."
+12791,2,Essential reading for anybody practicing Jnana-yoga,"Don't be thrown by the fact that the introduction is longer than the text!The 114 page introduction gives you all of the background information that you need to appreciate and comprehend the original work.Although I would recommend reading the introduction first, it is not essential. When an item comes up in the text that may not be fully comprehensable (unless one has read the introduction) there is a clear reference to the page where the information can be found.This book allowed me to get a handle on a lot of the Self-discoveries that I have been making by letting me know that they are, indeed, valid concepts; they have been perceived by others before me and that they have names. I have been reassured that, although I might appear to be alone on my yogic path, many have come this way before me and the path is clearly marked."
+12792,2,In Broad Daylight,"Well written, a few details in there about what he did with his wives I could've done without, but a good book."
+12793,1,You get what you pay for...,"Please don't buy these headphones if you are expecting to get a lot of bang for your buck. They cost very little, and therefore have very little quality. I used them for about 2 weeks and stopped. They hurt, the sound is horrible, and they fall apart quickly. If you need some quick headphones to use for a temporary amount of time, then get these. But if you need a good quality pair then trust me, it's worth it to spend the few extra bucks."
+12794,1,OMG ....I can't believe I bougth this book,"The mindless wanderings of a geologist who appears to be thinking about thinking about thinking about abiogenesis and telling us about trivia that happened in his lab or to some one he knew.If you are here to learn about abiogenesis,you'll love the chapter on why ther are no women mentioned in the book...pp. 187-8."
+12795,1,Not what I was expecting!!!,"Good points:- Can use AC adapter or batteries with receivers- Two receivers are very good: one for mom, another for dad.Bads:- Transmitter should have a sensitivity adjustment. All lights turns on with other sounds far away from my home...- You need a screwdriver to change batteries.- My receiver is still making static noise on either channels (A or B). The receiver is less than 8 meters away from the transmitter with only one wall between us. If I adjust the volume level to a minimum I can hear my son, I get also static noise so I can sleep!I was expecting something with perfect sound quality. You will take some days to adapt yourself with the transmitter sensitivity, with the receiver litte noises and to get confidence on it.I should have read all those reviews before buying it. Try looking another brand or model. Unfortunetely, I tested this product only after left USA, so I can't get my money back..."
+12796,2,Great service,Great sound as usual from Def Leppard. Makes me feellike I'm back in high school. Just need a girl for the back seat. Thanks for the great service and fast delivery Amazon.
+12797,1,Expensive paperweight,"Downloaded the firmware from the PC, but just does not want to turn ON even though the battery is fully charged.For now, it's just an expensive paperweight"
+12798,2,A great book!,"Sad, entertaining, and humorous. These are the words I would use to describe this book. This book continues on the Tillerman cycle. The three Tillerman children have now found a home with their granmother, and they are living a h appy life. Their grandmother doesn't have enough money to support the three children so they have to get welfare money. They found out that their mom is going to die so Dicey, and grandma go visit her, and While they are there she passed away in her hospital bed. The children don't cry, and get over the fact because they know that they have to continue their life, and just not give up. They haev each other to ebrace themselves, and they find out that life isn't simple, and it's a hard game!"
+12799,1,Cornwell can do better,"I was reading through some of the reader reviews and one reviewer called Marino the most ""put together"" character in the book and I realized with a start that this was true! How unexpected that this overeating, cigarette-smoking, tough and prejudiced cop would be the one to stay grounded, while ""Bang Bang"" Lucy struggles to stay balanced and Kay struggles to find peace and people that aren't out to get her. Problem is, I buy the Scarpetta books to read about Kay and her WORK, not the emotional stuff, and not to see how 90's Marino is becoming. Great forensics, as always, but a mess of emotions, a mess of a plot, and a silly ending that was just too abrupt."
+12800,1,Do not waste your money on this Cd changer,"I purchased this CD Changer and then returned it after a few weeks. The CD Changer would routinely skip the first track of every CD I played. It would skip no matter how new or old the CDs were. Cleaning the CD's did not help, nor did using a CD head cleaner. There are numerous reports of this issue on the web.Save your money."
+12801,1,"Scholarly, but had to put it away","This book is WAY too detailed for what I thought would be enjoyable reading--""social history"" in the title to me implied more of day-to-day life under the swastika, but I instead found myself wading through more than enough detail to fill a university-level course. While the work is exceptionally informative, it nonetheless is NOT intended for casual perusal. And once I found myself scanning rather than reading, I knew it was time to put it away--at least for now.What I did finish is no secret to anyone: not everything was as it seemed under Nazi rule--ordinary Germans still gave aid to domestic ""enemies"", highly visible social structures such as the churches were not silent on the issues, and the volk did not speak with one voice. Aycoberry just went overboard (for everyday readers) in describing it all."
+12802,2,Femme Fatale,"In the world where a woman can handle a gun and be as merciless and seemingly unemotional as any man, the anti- heroine named Nikita (Anne Parillaud in a performance of her life) is given a reprieve from a death sentence by government agents that want to use her as an undercover assassin.Director Luc Besson made a movie that manages to keep a high level of energy and our interest - from the opening scene - a violent drugstore shootout until the very last moment.Terrific cast include also Jean-Hughes Anglade (Queen Margot, Killing Zoe), Tcheky Karyo (Kiss of the Dragon, Addicted to Love 1997), Jeanne Moreau - the legend of the French cinema (""Jules and Jim"", ""Elevator to the Gallows"", ""Going Places""), and Jean Reno (""Leon"", ""Ronin"")Stylish, ultraviolent, cynical but strangely engrossing - ""La Femme Nikita"" is a must see for the fans of clever action movies. Don't bother with the American remake (Bridgett Fonda) or TV series with the same title - see only original."

+12804,2,Arnold at his best,"I like this movie especially for the Soundtrack. If you like Schwarzenegger, this movie is worth to be seen. The story has this interesting conflict between the ""I am so cool"" US Cop (Belushi) and the proud Soviet Cop (Schwarzenegger), the rest of the story is as usual ""finding the bad and killing him, with a lot of action"". The DVD is also ""as usual"": They call a Theatrical Trailer of the same movie a ""Special Feature"", ha!"
+12805,2,Sophia,"This is one of the best movies I have ever seen. With one of the most beautiful women that ever graced the screen. a most talented actress. It's a shame they don't write for women in her age group now. Movie goers today miss a great talent. All I can say is Sophia, Sophia, Sophia. What the hell I'll say it one more time SOPHIA"
+12806,2,Should be required reading,"I realize this is suppose to be a fictional story but it feels more like a look into a crystal ball. Should be required reading for school aged as well as anyone who can vote. The title is the key, ""enemies foreign and domestic"" with emphasis on domestic, is why the constitution has the second amendmant. To protect this country from tyrants doing business as the government!"

+12808,2,This is a great cane tip,The Carex Can Tip is an awesome product.The dealer I ordered through sent something else. So this product is awesome. But it's not what the seller sent me. A to Z claims covered me.The steel reinforcement makes this item the one to ask for!
+12809,1,left behind slice-marks,"i used it twice and it left small slice marks after the first use-cutting onions(i used a small sharp cutting knife). It looks like it's been used more than the two times i used it. If slice marks don't bother you, then it's worth $15 dollars. Personally, I wish I would have gotten something of higher quality that wouldn't leave slice marks in the cutting board."
+12810,2,Pretty Darn Neat,"Well, having seen this show twice in previews, and once during it's current Broadway run, I don't have to say how much I love it. Avenue Q is a true musical masterpiece. It encompasses wit, humor, passion, ethic contemplation, and fire. This show rocks. No questions asked. This CD is the only released version of the show, unfortunately. However, it is a fine one. It captures the show fairly, accurately, and quite completely. Also, since I preordered this album, I got the online Windows Media Player stream. Awesome! If you haven't seen the show, pay the $100 to do so. If you don't have the album, pay the $15 to do so. You won't regret it."
+12811,1,Ghost Lips,"Too white. It can be rubbed in so it's not real bad, but you may not have a mirror whenever you want to reapply so you could make yourself look really goofy. It is also very soft so it is hard not to use a lot more than you need. If you waste half or more of the product, it is essentially much more expensive than its already high price."
+12812,2,Seeing is believing!,"I've known Bill Hansen for months now, and everything Bill says in his book is absolutely true. He has rebuilt his life after being diagnosed with Parkinson's and his book is an inspiration to anyone stricken with a neurological disease. Anyone who has Parkinson's or knows someone who has Parkinson's, which is practically everyone, should read this book."
+12813,2,12 Stones,"I have to admit I had doubts about listening to this band, but it has enough hard rock and a touch of Creed to keep me coming back for more!!"
+12814,2,"Solid, if somewhat differnt","In recent years Nanci Griffith's music has been taking some unusual turns. Risks have been taken, and as risks something do they have not always worked out well for her. But those who simply wish for her to repeat the same style over and over on album after album refuse to recognize that sometimes the risks pay off and CLOCK WITHOUT HANDS is such an example.Granted the production here is a little more polished than many long term fans might like, but this does not negate the fact that the songs here generally range from good to very good whether they are Nanci's own (""Traveling Through This Part of You,"" ""Midnight in Missoula"" or the title track) or outside material (""Where Would I Be,"" ""The Ghost Inside of Me"") or collaborations (""Pearl's Eye View""). There are a few missteps (""Shaking Out the Snow"" just doesn't work) but on the whole this is Nanci's finest album since her 1993 tribute to her music heroes OTHER VOICES OTHER ROOMS."
+12815,2,If you desire suspense.,"Not being much of a fiction reader, I found myself unable to put this book down. Author provided vivid descriptions and unusual character base. Couldn't read fast enough."
+12816,2,Very Pretty Bowls,The bowls are very attractive(to me anyway). Thank god not one of them was broken when I opened the box. Hopefully if I take good care of them they will last a long time without chipping.(Only time will tell)
+12817,2,Every bit as gripping as the best adventure fiction,"Here's another true-life thriller of rescue at sea: this taking place in 1978 when a blizzard trapped a tanker off the Massachusetts coast, a rescuing Coast Guard ship found itself in equal danger, and a pilot boat captain went to the rescue of both. Dozens of interviews and audiotape recordings of the rescue blend with first-person accounts and research to make Ten Hours Until Dawn: The True Story Of Heroism And Tragedy Aboard The Can Do every bit as gripping as the best adventure fiction."
+12818,2,Could have been better,"This is a decent UDO album. It rocks and has good melodic lyrics, butI would recommend Animal House and Mean Machine as far as the solo work of UDO goes. After the song Holy, it falls off."
+12819,1,plug in door chime,"Unfortunately, the chime worked once only. I don't know if the product is old or defective. I'd appreciate a replacement. Thank you."
+12820,2,Must read,"Uno de los generos mas dificiles son las novelas policiacas. Padura trabaja muy bien el personaje principal Mario Conde y a la misma vez retrata como es la vida en la habana.Esta novela es parte de la tetralogia cuatro estaciones, Padura desarrolla los personajes Mario Code y su mejor amigo que quedo invalido durante la guerra de Angola a traves de esta 4 novelas culminando en un final sorprendente como toda novela policiaca debe terminar.Tambien recomiendo ""La novela de mi vida"" sobre Jose Maria Heredia - SU MEJOR NOVELA."
+12821,1,Does NOT Work!,"I rarely write bad reviews, but this one surely deserves it, and I wish Amazon would allow us to give it 0 stars. I went to return this item today, and the return window expired yesterday:(This product does not work! It makes our printer overheat, it just makes a loud noise and that's it. It's not printing, so I cannot tell you how the print quality is.Save your money, do not buy this product!"
+12822,2,It's a cable,"The cable itself is exactly what I thought it would be and it is a nice heavy duty cable, however, it did arrive two days late but I'm sure that was the bottleneck of snail mail."
+12823,2,arrived promptly,It's difficult to say much about cables. They arrived very quickly 3rd or 4th day from ordering as described. Exactly as with plugs on both ends.
+12824,1,Not the 7th Gen product I'm used to buying retail,"This will teach me to ALWAYS read the reviews for even the simplest product. Turns out, this is not the same quality TP sold in 12-roll packages at the grocery store. This paper is ""unquilted"" and rough. Now I'm stuck with 48 rolls of abrasive toilet paper -- not the best situation after childbirth. Product description should be more specific to differentiate it from the other 2-ply TP offered by Seventh Gen. Very disappointed and won't be ordering again."
+12825,2,The greatest game,Smackdown is great down to the last detail.It has the best wrestlers.What i thought was the greatest thing of all was the graphics.They are out of this world.The story mode is outstanding.The story changes all the time.You can walk around backstage and make friends or enemies with other wrestlers.You can only do your finisher if you are really beating him up.You can also be a special guest referee at wrestlemania or even at RAW.For any kind of match either the hardcore championship down to the wwf championship.You can do slow count or fast count for pin.Or a computer referee can olso do slow count or fast count for you depending on whether he lokes you are not. bye
+12826,1,"flying insects, not!",I bought this item to deter flies because it says it will work with flying insects. Flies will actually land and sit on it without any apparent problems. I gave it to charity.
+12827,1,Incredible Disappearing Keys,"I would have rated this keyboard much higher because I love all the shortcuts, but I have NEVER seen letters wear off so fast (like 3 months)! I have short, natural nails, and am not using any cleaners other than compressed air. I use several different keyboards on a regular basis, yet this is the only one whose ""home row"" has completely disappeared. (I tried replacement stickers; don't bother.) I purchased it in 2008, so it could be that newer ones do not have this problem, but though I am in the market for a new keyboard at this point, I will not be buying this model again."
+12828,2,Roman History of Art,This book is required reading for the open Yale course on Roman Art and Architecture. It is a perfect compliment to the course or it could very easily be read without the course. I intend to travel to Italy to see these beautiful sites and I will certainly take my book with me.
+12829,2,fantastic,so many thing s to say so little time just the greatest band in the world just wish i was there hope they tour again around here love it
+12830,2,saving faith,I thought the book was great. I have read 9 of his books already and would recommend them to all of my friends to read. His books are very exciting and you don't want to put the book down. Great book. 4 stars.
+12831,1,While you might burn 500 calories......,"This workout is insane.I've done plenty of work outs (my personal favs. being those of Jillian Michaels.), but this one is poorly cued. Most instructors at least give some explaination to each move. This isn't the case with this workout. I was missing a lot of moves because I didn't know what the heck to expect. The instructor pretty much just yells the name of the move out and they do it VERY fast.You would seriously have to watch this video at least 4 times (if not more) to get a concept of the video so when you actually do it you are getting a work out and not just staggering trying to keep up without having proper form.On that note, if you can't keep up with the ladies of the video then it's doubtful you'll burn 500 calories. If you can, then you may...but otherwise...No.Would be a great workout if it wasn't so poorly cued. Also if you aren't an avid exerciser you will more then likely get injured if you are not careful."
+12832,2,Who are you kidding! What a great album!,"If you hear this CD you will likely fall in love with this band and their sound. Their original songs (which I personally favor as their best) are nostalgic and touching... their covers are powerfull and energizing. You would have to be deaf to not enjoy this CD (which apparently some people are... and thats OKAY). Not only do I recommend this album but check out their website and take a good look at the rest of their music. If you can- see them live- they are always a fabulous show! I have never been let down by this charming and poetic Irish band. Each album is full of heart, life, and passion."
+12833,2,"Review on ""Where the Sidewalk Ends""","The book ""Where the Sidewalk Ends"" is a very good book full of good and entertaining poetry along with drawing s to go with most of the poems. I enoyed the book and would read it again and again."

+12835,1,Daughter loves it but...,the area around the velcro has already started to fray. This was a Christmas gift so she has not had them long. I think that the quality should be better. The knee pads and elbow pads do seem to protect well.

Now I go back and forth playing both of them. These games have it all. Everything is so real you feel like you are in a mission of combat and not just a game.I spend so much time playing that I had to buy my son his own computer so he can play.My son thanks you for that. I'm getting commandos 2 for my birthday if I can wait another month, but I don't think I can wait that long. I have just 2 words for you guys. THANK YOU."

+12838,1,"""Engineering an Empire"" with different title","This product is the History Channel's ""Engineering an Empire: Egypt"" television show repackaged with a different name. It's a good historical look at building technology in Ancient Egypt and has great CGI to accompany the explanations, but it's not new content. I'd buy the Engineering an Empire episode off of iTunes instead and save $10 or more."

+12840,2,Wicca For Couples-Excellent!!,"Wicca for Couples by AJ Drew is, in my opinion, a must read for any and all Wicca couples and for those that will someday be a couple. Drew makes the fine point that the cornerstone of Wicca is the family and offers advice on Wicca for that family.I read Wicca for Couples and immediatley shared it with my wife. The book gave rise to many, many discussions that allowed us to realign our relationship. We were close to celebrating our 27th wedding anniversary at the time. We continue to use Wicca for Couples as a guide in our magical and mundane relationship.I heartfully recommend Wicca for Couples.Blessed Be,"

+12842,2,Perfect size-up for our 3 year old,"We had an infant helmet and noticed it was getting a bit snug for our 3 year old son. So, we compared all of the kids helmets sizes and decided that this was the next size for him. It does fit very well, though it has a bit of excess strap that we will be loosening up as he grows over the next several years. Cute style -- he likes the flames and it gives him a bit of visibility. Very happy with this purchase."
+12843,1,For Teenagers,"After reading the first 100 pages of this book, I came to the conclusion this book was written for teenagers,and young teenagers at that, and am mystified by all of the 4 and 5 star reviews."
+12844,1,Overkill at best.,"I was enthralled by the beginnings of the Wheel of Time. I thought, ""Wow, this book has magic ( the True Power) in a completely new form no one had ever conceived before, and new races ( Ogier and Trollocs ) straight from the author's imagination. But 2500 some pages later, with little more to add than sensless rhetoric about the same doubts and misconceptions that troubled the characters from page one of the Eye of The World, it's getting old. End it while you can, Robert J. This series will be your funeral."
+12845,2,yes!,"This is a great book. It's practical, humorous, easy to understand and well-written. If you want to simplify your life and learn to chill, read this!"
+12846,2,one of the best,"This is one of my all time favorite games. And ironically, I never owned the damn game! I remember for my birthday, my dad took me to three different stores and all of them had run out. So I ended up getting Bionic Commando, a treat in itself but I was bummed about not having Punch-Out.Luckily, my neighbor across the street had it and I was hooked. Along with tae kwon do, I attribute my cat like reflexes to this game. It's a tough game, especially Tyson, but it is one game that I consider myself to be a pro (ko'd tyson early round 2). I still play it from time to time and just love it.The graphics are just sensational for 8 bit. The ring color (blue and green) are vibrant. Super Mario was ref just cracks me up everytime I see him.Overall this is a spectacular game that every gamer back in the 80's reminises about. Truly a gem."
+12847,1,Terrible DVD!,"I LOVE Ozzy Osbourne.He is awesome live.He has one of the best stage presences in metal.But this DVD is not a real concert.What this is the music from the Live and Loud CD played in the background played over a bunch of crappy video footage.Half of it doesn't even belong here.The music is great,but the video footage is what messes this up.If you want a real Ozzy concert,buy ""Live At Budokan"".If you want to get the REAL concert this was taken from,buy the CD.Also,The DVD does NOT have instant chapter access like the case says so.Plus,the DVD is two sided.This means that you have to flip it over in the middle of the concert."
+12848,2,Awesome Manga!,"I always browse through the Japanese manga section of the book store when I ran across this book with a *really* gory cover (prob'ly why they don't have it pictured on here). Although it has kind of a campy 'aliens possess humans' been-done storyline, this manga makes it BETTER. The art is cool, there's humor (esp. from the alien's quips) and...and...just *read it*! And it really should be made into a movie...in fact it is! Jim Henson is working on it."
+12849,1,Sucks Batteries Dry in Nothing Flat,"I don't know why this thing asks for the date and time when you start it: I've had to replace the batteries every time I've used it, and then re-enter the date and time again. Yesterday I put brand new Duracell batteries in it, purchased that day, and after printing one label (""SPARES"") the low battery warning came on. I tried printing another label and it just gave up. And that was the _second_ set of new batteries I tried, because I wasn't sure the Energizers I put in the first time were absolutely fresh. And there's not even a plugin for an AC adapter, so it's totally useless. I acknowledge that my experience must be atypical, otherwise no one would be giving this thing good reviews. However, if you do get one of these, make sure you give it a good workout right away, and keep all the packing materials in case you need to ship it back."
+12850,1,Why can't I make good espresso from this machine?,"I freely admit that user error may be my problem here. I owned a Starbucks machine and finally decided to ""upgrade"". I had bought a machine for my parents and loved that I know longer had to prime the machine before every service. And I didn't have to call the manufacturer every three weeks when it vapor locked for no apparent reason at all.Having said all of that, my parents' machine (which is not this one and was $140) made great espresso. My machine could not seal, was difficult to set up and almost always leaked. As well, the frother is really a bit of a pain in the butt.I returned my unit (I had bought it from Costco). But if anyone has some suggestions on what I might have done better, that would be great.As an aside, do espresso machine manufacturers feel it necessary to make their instructions as difficult to follow as those from Ikea? I mean, really, folks: User experience is not brain surgery."
+12851,1,Broke on first use,"This luggage is not well designed since the left latch broke upon first use. Anyone who purchases this piece should also buy a luggage strap to make it secure, since the flimsy latches will not hold up. If they open, which they do easily, even when you don't want them to, they will be broken off if they come in contact with other luggage. I have requested a repair or replacement from EBags and will follow up this COMMENT if I do not receive satisfaction. Samsonite needs to redesign this luggage."
+12852,1,Very Weak Diet Book,"This book resembles more of a readers digest article than a book. It is only 56 pages of diet information combined with plenty of boxes of what you can eat, and the remainder of the book is recipes. The diet is very strict and on it you end up exercising 1 hour a day five days a week in the final phase.There is no explanation of why to follow the guidelines presented and very little dialogue from the author. Skip this book and pick up the Sonoma Diet or Ultrametabolism for a diet you can live with and to get your moneys worth.There is nothing new here, there is very little book."
+12853,1,A dissapointment,"Although it has a few promising traits, this was a very bad first attempt for a next-gen Yu-Gi-Oh! game, the gameplay is repetitive and tediously slow. Your stuck with three minor monsters for a long time, and there are no cut-scenes to speak of. Over all, this makes the sims look like an action game. My advice? Only buy this if you have A LOT of time on your hands, and you don't get bord easily."
+12854,1,Guess What......Guess Who isnt that great of a movie,"Ashton Kutcher (A Lot Like Love, Dude Where's My Car?) plays Simon who is dating Percy's, Bernie Mac (Mr. 3000, Ocean's 11 and 12), daughter but there's one problem with Simon that Percy sees, that's he's white and his daughter is black. Let's say it rings on on Meet The Parents just a little too much even though this is about an interracial couple. They said they had to spend millions of dollars editing out Kutcher's red Kaballah braclet in evern scene he was in which I laughed my ass off because that's so ridiculous.... Kutcher isnt funny in this movie...he's funny in That 70's Show but he isnt funny here. Bernie Mac anchors the film as the Dad. Also starring Mike Epps (Next Friday, The Honeymooners). Hey, dont mind me I'm just jotting down my opinions, like it or not."
+12855,1,small pockets,"I love the idea, and still use the product often, but they just seemed to miss on the product. To me the pockets are too small to get tools in and out of easily. I think I would have been much better off buying one with less pockets but more room in each pocket, I would look elsewhere."
+12856,1,100% POSER DEATH METAL!!!,"In the early 90's there were hundreds of great bands playing death metal. Now, in 2004, we have bands like VEHEMENCE. What went wrong you ask? Listen to this band and find out why....Pure garbage that Metal Blade Records is trying to stuff down the throats of the younger fans who don't know the real roots of this music. Listen kids, buy anything from MASSACRE, GRAVE, IMPETIGO, REPULSION, PESTILENCE, ASPHYX, IMPALED, ENGORGED, DEATH(Scream Bloody Gore), and find some old zines and educate yourself on what real death metal is all about."
+12857,1,Motorola Charger,"It worked once, then nothing, would not charge the phone. The blue light at night is a distraction, very bright... Spend the extra couple of buck and buy quality."
+12858,2,Sharp knifes!,Only used a couple of times so far. Appear to be well made. Also like their one piece construction. Like the handles; comfortable to use. Cheeses do not stick to blades like a regular knife does. Would recommend.
+12859,1,I wish I knew,I wish I knew....it's been 5 days since I ordered it and it hasn't even shipped yet! What poor service!
+12860,1,So awful,"Compared to ""Day by Day Armageddon"" this book is awful. Poor writing, simplistic, terrible. I want my money back."
+12861,2,Hercule Poirot,I love watching Hercule Poirot mysteries. I love Evil under the sun and Murder on the Orient Express. The movie collection that I have just purchased is excellent.
+12862,2,"works well, color is not as in photo",works great and i use it often to see things and not wake up the baby. the item is a very dark orange when lit almost red. (i might try the yellow one next time. i hope it is a little lighter.)
+12863,1,"Bad art, bad writing","It looks like a middle school project that someone's mother published.The inside is full of clip art, and the page format seems to change every few stories."
+12864,2,Great for even bigger hands,"Once my family started eating a lot of potatoes and sweet potatoes I found it necessary to purchase a good scrub brush as we like to leave the skin on.This is great, really cleans the potatoes and other root vegetables really well. Easy to clean and easy to use even for someone with XL hands like myself.OXO has yet to disappoint me."
+12865,1,Don't waste your money on this DVD,"Don't waste your hard earned money on this DVD Set. I bought this set because of the price but now I regret it. This is a bunch of boring documentaries put together, featuring a bunch of unknown and not very credible researchers telling us why they think UFOs and Alien Abductions are real. I agree that there's a lot of informations on this documentary, but a lot of the cases are not very credible so what's the point ?? This is a proof that quality is a lot more important than quantity. I am disappointed because usually Mill Creek Entertainment produce good documentaries ( ""America's 60 greatest Unsolved Mysteries and Crimes"", ""Vegas: The city the Mob made"", America's Serial Killers: Portraits in Evil"" ).Don't waste your money on this DVD. If you want to buy real documentaries about UFOs then buy ""I know what I saw"", ""UFOs: The Best Evidences"" or ""Unsolved Mysteries: UFOs""."
+12866,1,One bad apple.,"The bad apple is background hiss. The only way to not hear it, is to turn up the music so loud as to drown it out. During quieter parts of songs, it's loud enough to be extremely annoying. I know the hissing is not inherent to MP3s, because my old Nomad was crystal clear.Intel got everything right except the basic amplifier. (I could care less about the radio.)What a disappointment! The one problem was the reason I returned it, and reason enough not to have purchased it in the first place."
+12867,1,Dead On Arrival!,"I bought this unit and popped it into my APC XS1000 which had been working fine for years but was requiring a new battery.The battery shipped to me was an epic fail. Additionally, it can't be returned because of its toxic nature. So now I have two dead batteries that need special disposal and I'm out >$70. Better to just buy an updated backup unit."
+12868,1,Careful - Full Screen Rather than the Original Aspect Ratio,"I just received my DVD copy of Ship of Fools & was disappointed that it is presented in the hackneyed, butchered Standard/Full Screen rather than respecting the original aspect ratio. Such tampering/butchering should be illegal. It's not only a rippoff to the film's admires but its being sold without clearly warning the customer."
+12869,1,cheap copper,"This ice bucket is NOT solid. The box has the word ""solid"" covered with a sticker that states ""decor"" copper. Essentially the description is misleading and incorrect. Anyone who was lucky enough to get solid copper was just that . . . lucky. This ice bucket is just cheap looking. The brass know looks substantial but that is about it. bought it for a wedding gift, but am too ashamed to give it."
+12870,2,Fred Astaire as Gene Kelly,"This movie surprised me a lot. It wasn't what I expected at all. I was on a Fred Astaire kick and was viewing many of his early movies. When I came to this one, I saw a Fred that I hadn't seen before. Then it hit me... Fred Astaire was playing a Gene Kelly part. Imagine Kelly in this role! Fred Astaire seemed to have one ""gimmicky"" dance in many of his movies and the wonderful bar dance was this picture's gimmic. But it was an athletic dance that you'd expect from Gene Kelly. Not to say I didn't like the movie. I liked it a lot. The bar dance (to One More for the Road) was great. Benchley's dinner speech was so funny and is one scene that I'd like to show in public speaking classes for a lesson on how NOT to give a speech."
+12871,1,Not worth it,"I haven't used these yet, just washed them yesterday. EVERY single item in the set has fraying around the edges, some of it really bad (the complete edging coming off). I've had better luck with towels from Walmart. NEVER have I had any towels fall apart on the first wash before like these. I can only imagine what subsequent washings will do. In fact, I haven't even seen this from old towel sets I've had for many years. Very poor quality!!"
+12872,1,Faulty Information?,"Apparently the author has lived abroad too long. On page one he states: ""A child born in the U.S., for example, is a U.S. citizen even if both of his parents are illegal immigrants."" Not only is this untrue, a baby born to LEGAL immigrants isn't automatically granted citizenship. The rules changed long before the publishing of this book--the author should verify his facts. I can't help but wonder if the whole book isn't fully of erroneous information (I only read the first ten pages, which are available at the publishers site)."
+12873,2,A must!,"This show was shot at Royal Albert Hall in the end of 2004 and edited to about 90 minutes of DVD time, leaving 17 songs out of 25 from the original show (plus biography and countdown to the show documentary. There are 12 classics (including ""Stay with me"" with Ronnie Wood) and 5 standards from ""American songbook"" trilogy (""As Times Goes by"" performed with Chrissie Hynde of Pretenders). All in all, it's a wonderful DVD - great show and excellent quality of audio and video. At 59 Rod is still a great entertainer, and his backing musicians are very good. The audience is just fantastic and is ready to sing along with Rod all the time (sometimes he even has to tell that they can not start to sing before him).One of the best live DVDs I've ever seen. Highly recommended to all music lovers!"
+12874,1,butcher of the blues,"a decent blues band is wasted under the banal vocals of Bruce Willias who takes a chainsaw to such wonderful standards as ""under the boardwalk"". Does he actually think he is James Bond? Somebody better call M and have his liscense to sing revoked."
+12875,2,"If you wanted a Rolex, this is even better.","I realize it doesn't have the panache of the Rolex name, but it is better in every other way. It's even more accurate. The design and build quality are first rate. I have no idea why it was so steeply discounted. The smooth sweeping motion of the second hand would fool a casual observer. This has become my daily wear watch."
+12876,1,"Dirt Bunko, The Imprisoned Pigeon that Ate a C-Note and Pooped Out Two Bits","MISSED!!! One good story...the last one. Isn't that typical? The stories don't hold you and the yawns will paralyze your jaw. WORK YER NECK MUSCLES 'CUZ YOU'LL BE A-SHAKIN' YOUR SKULL ""WHY GOD WHY"" IF YA READ THIS BOOK!!! Ashley, you schmuck."
+12877,1,Absolutely don't buy,"This is a very beautiful watch. When i saw it in the store i absolutely had to buy it. However, like Cinderella's beautiful carriage and gown disappeared, so to will it's beauty. By the second week the color of the leather had already started to fade. Thankfully, the rose gold facade hasn't worn of yet, probably because i stopped wearing it altogether. I still like the watch but i'll definitely have to spend about the same price i paid for it to get a good leather strap before i can wear it again"
+12878,2,Looks natural,"I'm very fair and was looking for a product that looked natural and wouldn't streak. I've been using this product for years. The only challenge I have with it is my feet, as any shoes with tight fitting areas will rub off the tan color and make my feet look blotchy."
+12879,2,I've become the Fan,"God I love this! ""Fan and Bellows"" has been playing in my head for days...only love can save me now. I feel like a loser because there was a time in my life when I didn't own this cd. This is exciting!"
+12880,2,It's on fiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiirrrrrrrrrrrrrrrre!,"I haven't finished listening to the album yet. I have listened to the first 16 tracks and I can still say that the album is worth it. There is noooooooooooooooooooooooo way that this album is as hot as 400 degreez though. .... It is definitely worth buying. My favorite joint so far is ""Lovely"". The production, on ""Lovely"", kind of reminds me of the Clipse's ""Grindin'"". Therefore this album is definitely something to listen to to hype you up before going to the club."
+12881,1,Burned out,I bought two of these poppers in the last 4 years. The heating element burned out on each of them. The popper makes great popcorn but the planned demise built into these poppers is not worth the cost.Madfro
+12882,2,I LOVE YOU'RE GUYS MUSIC IT GREAT KEEP UP THE GOOD JOB,I CAN STOP PLAYING MY TAKE AND SMIPLE ON THE WEB PAGE IT TOUCH MY HEART SO MUCH I'M GLAD YOU CAME TO PHOENI FIRST ASSEMBLEY OF GOD PLEASE COME BACK WE WOULD LIKE IT EVEN PASTOR TOMMY BARENTT
+12883,2,Good Primer,I bought this book in 1990 (an older version) and have never had a statistics course. I have found it to be an extremely helpful starting point for the application of statistical tests to biomedical problems. From this I have gone on and used more sophisticated tools for computation and have only rarely needed to seek out the advice of experts.The book is packed full of information and covers the broad range of problems most often encountered in biomedical science. It emphasizes an understanding of the choice an appropriate test for a given problem. Flow charts also help guide the user to the right test and the correct chapter. For this reason I have come back to it repeatedly over the years and it has become well worn. It is sparse on explanation of the statistical or mathematical proofs of methods so it is more of a cookbook than as a theoretical treatise.
+12884,1,A Bit Disappointing II,"If you're a Luis Royo fan, which I am, you might like this book. There is no finished artwork, just sketches. While it provides insight into the development of Royo's work, I found it a bit disappointing."
+12885,2,Excellent bluesey rock!,"This album is excellent from the first song to the last. If you enjoy the black crowes, then you will enjoy this album. The sound is awesome, and the lead singers voice is one-of-a-kind. Some songs tend to be raunchy in their subject matter, but the way the music is put together is awesome. I truely believe that if the Black Crowes had not exploded onto the music world in the way that they did, then this band very easily could have exploded in the same way. The sound is excellent."
+12886,1,Turbulence 2: The worst movie ever,"When I saw this movie I was thinking what kind of person would even decide to make this movie. They would've saved a lot of money if they just decided to not make this movie at all. First of all, the special effects were just horrible and the scenes were just like Turbulence. If I were you i would stay away from that movie."
+12887,2,Without peer.,"This is, without a doubt, one of the greatest albums of all time.Haunting, lyrical, mystical -- it captured a nighttime of many enduring emotions."
+12888,2,Weather Alert Radio,This radio certainly does its job well. It wakes me up in the morning with music and sends weather alerts for my specific county when issued. The alerts are loud enough to get you up and moving if you need to. There's no distinction in the audio alarm between warning and watch it's LOUD for both.
+12889,1,Not the Best,"I owned this thing for less than a year when it stopped charging. Next time I'll stick to the Krups, which is a great can opener."
+12890,2,Smell Like a Million Dollars,"I gave Elizabeth Taylor's Black Pearls as a present to my mother. She said the scent strength is moderate, lasts 6-10 hours and it's a flowery fragrance. She loved it! The pure perfume version comes in an exquisite bottle."
+12891,1,Awful. Mostly maltodextrin.,"We ran out of Jolly Time and picked this up at the store. Tastes bad and is mostly maltodextrin, which causes stomach upset for most of my family. Avoid if you don't like maltodextrin."
+12892,1,Should get an oscar for best screenplay,"What an interesting film. Imagine, the CIA as villain! Sorry. Didn't mean to give the plot away."
+12893,2,Everyone needs a Bunny Planet,"We have the three-pack set of Voyage to the Bunny Planet. First Tomato is my 3 year old daughter's favorite story. We read it last night, and she had to have tomato soup for lunch today. But after she had looked at the bowl for a minute she said, ""But mom, you forgot to say you love me so!"" So I had to say, ""I've made you first tomato soup because I love you so."" That made it perfect. Every parent and child will love the cozy, comforting stories that rescue the characters from their realistic, very ordinary bad days. They are a joy."
+12894,2,glitter,this is a beautiful piece of jewelry that is both high quality for modest means. A piece anyone would love to own!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
+12895,2,Garage door back up and running,Product was exactly what I needed and the instructions were quite easy to read and follow. My garage door is up and running again. Thank you very much.Sherman Hood
+12896,1,"Poor video, good sound, wonderful performance.","I'm just siting at home and watching the first DVD of Dio. My feelings are apparted. Like many of you wrote above, poor video of this stuff is making me sick! Why do they done it to Ronnie and his all stars band. Great guitar and drum work is destroyed by editor (terminator?). It's sucks!!!"
+12897,2,A Great Book,"This is a great book but I recommend reading the rest of the Foundation Series first as even though this takes place before it, it was written after and was meant to be read after you read the other books."
+12898,2,Mellow music from Janet....yall chill out!!,"I found this album to be waaaay better than all for you. i wonder what some of you thought of that! damita jo is a smooth listen from track one all the way through the double digits. we all know that janet is not aretha franklin in the vocals but her arrangements are very complimentary, they have never failed her in the past. i enjoy this album and play it often when in a chilling type of mood. it really isnt as bad as people are saying, she is just having a hard time living down the superbowl incident. she has some real cuts on here like r & b junkie has old school fever!! also my favs are island life, damita jo, sexhibition and strawberry bounce. I am a grown azz woman much like janet and i can relate to her soft moods as well as her sexy vocals over some banging beats, at least people cannot deny her tracks are all extra tight. point blank, give it a try. you owe it to yourself if you bought all 4 u..."
+12899,2,GOOD ALBUM,"I found this album in the used section of a local music store.I would recommend it to anyone that a fan of the group,Atlantic Starr of which Ms.Bryant was a featured vocalist.My favorite song on this album is the remake of'' Foolish Heart.''"
+12900,1,"TERRIBLE install, TERRIBLE support, DON'T BUY THIS","The installation from disk is TERRIBLE -- it is VERY slow even on a fast computer and then INSISTS on installing gigabytes of updates over the network, taking hours. There is NO number to call.This is a piece of crap in terms of customer requirement, don't buy it. I will be getting a refund on this."
+12901,1,17BII+ problem,My biggest issue with the 17BII+ is the one that apparently plagues other users as well. My first and sometimes second keystroke doesn't always register. It happens randomly and is a major problem for me. I've gone through four of these calculators and three of the four had the same problem. I kept returning them until I got one that works.It's unfortunate. A calculator that can't calculate is useless. The company has/had a great reputation. They really should get their act together.
+12902,1,Deceptive advertisement,This is not the kit as pictured or described in the product description. It is the wheel only as stated in the title.
+12903,2,New Testament,Using this book for a New Testament Survey class and it is an excellent resourse supplemented by the teaching of the instructor.CD attached makes for study time while I commute convenient with no need to haul textbook as I travel.
+12904,2,"pure nostalgia, but still so good","This album features two of my absolute all-time favourites, Duel and P: Machinery, you wouldn't believe how often I listened to these 2 singles as a boy.....Unfortunately, none of the other songs on this album come near to these two, but this would be very difficult indeed, and they are still good to very good.In total, not a perfect CD, but still great,typical 80ies and very original music."
+12905,1,"Lousy textbook, Chemistry students beware!","I have had nothing but problems with this book. The practice problems in the chapter do not reflect the ones at the end of the chapter, which pretty much leaves it up to you to figure out what is going on. The chapters are not well written in the first place! Very hard to follow! There is no supplemental solution manual to follow along with so you can see how the practice problems were solved. I could go on and on. In general, possibly the worst chemistry text I have ever had to use."
+12906,1,Poor kit... look for the Polar Lights 1/1000 scale Enterprise instead,"This kit was originally manufactuired in the 1960s, with the molds & decals revised over the years... but not to good effect. Lining up the engines (and keeping them from sagging over time) was always a challenge... the lettering on the decal sheet is too small & the wrong font.... lots of nasty gaps, as well as that WAY overdone grid on top of the saucer that was not on the original model... all in all, a poor kit. Get the Polar Lights 1/1000 scale classic Enterprise kit instead. That one has accurate proporations, parts to build the kit as any 1 of the 3 revisions that the model went through between the 1st pilot, 2nd pilot & series production versions, plus decals for all 3 versions & ""Mirror Universe"" ISS Enterprise markings. (Spock with goatee not included.) :)"
+12907,1,really not what i was expecting,"I have the first 3 seasons already. They come in these really nice boxes with a sleeve for each disc. SO, I was expecting to receive something similar. Unfortunately, this season the discs come in a cheap plastic holder with 3 spots to hold the discs . It just looks really cheap. I love the GND but this season dvds looks really cheap"
+12908,1,Way Out of Date,This book is far out of date. On one trail we met several people all trying to use it and all a good mile off the mark. We called the numbers in the book for direction (disconnected) on this trail and even called the town and were told that no one had asked about the trail in years. TryMaui Revealed: The Ultimate Guidebook (Maui Revealed)instead.
+12909,1,unnecessary item if you buy a new insinkerator,"I bought the new compact insinkerator (which is great) but don't be misled by the ""customers also buy"" section- the flange and baffle are included so I needed to pay to return them."
+12910,1,disappointed,not what i expected. the main actress was excellent in the movie. but this movie dragged on . you could wait for it to come on tv. not worth the purchase
+12911,2,This is really different!,This is for me the first book on chess I have encountered that really puts first things first and explains a systematic method for thinking about any chess position. Even though the author makes very interesting remarks about strategical points he never forgets to remind you about the tactical problems on the board and a systematic way of taking care of these. For me definetely the most helpful book on chess that I ever read.
+12912,2,nice backpack for a good price,"I have a 15.4 inch macbook pro, there's a bit of extra space around it in the pouch. The bag holds a good amount, maybe 2 1 inch binders, some notebooks, your cables and a mouse. Although you might not want all that weight on the computer. There are two pouches on the side that can fit a big nalgene each. It's comfortable and a good size. I thought I wanted something smaller, but its just the right size for what I need. It's well constructed... there's a pouch on the bottom that I'm not sure what its for. Anybody know?"
+12913,2,Stunning,"From the opening bars of Debussy's thrilling string quartet, it's clear this is a special date that fully deserves its inclusion in the Phillips Great Recordings series. The music is so immediate, so exciting and perpetually inventive, the playing so united and muscular, it really nudges perfection.This goes equally for the Ravel quartet, routinely coupled with Debussy. It's no real surprise the two works are often placed side by side - Debussy implored Ravel ""by the Gods of music not to change a thing"" to his quartet, so the mutual admiration was certainly there! Despite surface similarities, however, the two are really very distinct works and Quartetto Italiano, here at their absolute peak, brings each to luminous life.The close mikes, while perhaps a bit annoying for some, to these ears brings a sense of intimate warmth and immediacy.Very highly recommended."
+12914,2,LOVE IT!!,"Okay, first off I'll tell you that all the books in the series (there are four main series, then a couple ""in-between"" books) are GREAT! However, it gets to be too much. Remembering all the names, what Clan they come from, who their mate is, who there kits are, who their friends/enemies are, who their brothers and sisters are, it's too much!But, I'm not here to bag on the books, I read the first one because a bunch of my friends were going on and on about them, it's a couple weeks later, and I'm just finishing The Last Omen, sooo... I don't know if that says anything other than I LOVE WARRIORS!!!!"
+12915,2,Love this Wrinkle Cream!,"I ordered this with several other RoC Retin A containing products and I am so glad that I did! I saw a difference within the first week! My friends and family noticed a difference also and it is great because it contains SPF 30, so I don't have to use another SPF lotion on top of it. If you use any kind of Retin A products, you HAVE TO use a sunscreen! This product does it all....sloughs away skin to reveal a smoother skin that diminishes wrinkles, and protects that new skin from the sun. Worth getting!"
+12916,2,Learn to Eat Food You Need,A great introduction to nutrition for those who want to eat healthily. I keep it close by and refer to it often. It is based on research you can trust.
+12917,1,Too Much Noise,"I have now listened to this disc on various players. Obviously the material and the pianist are great, but unfortunately there was a problem in the recording process and this was not cleaned up via a suppressor in the transfer process. As a result there is too much noise, primarily background air, On this disc."
+12918,1,Metallica Gone Wrong,"I didn't think that it would happen, but it did. Metallica has turned into a commercial balloon that has been deflated for over ten years now. The once legendary greatness of this band has been drawn out to the extent that those that were there for the release of ""Kill 'Em All"" wouldn't even know this album was made by the same band. It's sad, I know, but they have faded into the musical realm of fallen giants. The entire album seems to be a sad attempt to relive the greatness of such albums as ""Ride The Lightning,"" and ""Master of Puppets."" Musically, this just falls flat on it's face. It's nowhere near the organization or careful planning as MoP or RtL, even ""...And Justice For All."" And the lyrics are just an old dog trying to use old tricks and pass them off as new ones. It's really a shame that such a great band has to stoop to this level. Rolling Stone can say whatever they want; this album, for lack of better words, sucks."
+12919,2,Awesome new writer,Best book I have read in a long time. Descriptions take you right there. The dynamics between family members is well conjoined. A very well told story...there had better be a sequel.
+12920,1,DANGEROUS! Broken snaps slashed and bloodied my baby!,"Please anyone who owns this stroller check all snaps. The snaps on the rear seat broke and left very sharp and jagged metal. While changing my baby she rubbed her arm against the side and ended up with a 3"" gash on her arm gushing blood. That ended our trip at the zoo. I did not know what cut my daughter until I pulled the pad away and received a nice cut myself. I have used this stroller fewer than 20 times. We have been very gentle on it. I did not realize the snaps had broke because I've always covered the seats.I did call Evenflo and they offered a replacement or a refund. I did not need to provide Evenflo with a receipt or other proof of purchase. So hopefully your child will not be injured and you won't be stuck with a dangerous stroller. -refund check was $149-"
+12921,1,"If this is the best he has to offer, then it's a shame.","There is a reason that Pete Best was replaced as drummer for the world's best known band. He simply was not very good. Uninspired vocal performances, poor choices of cover material, and uninteresting drumming make this CD unlistenable. Pete Best was replaced in 1962 for a reason. Lack of talent and charisma."
+12922,2,Must Have for the True DMB Fan,"If you love DMB, and you've been holding off on getting this cause you already have all the songs on other cd's, buy it! The song quality is actually very good, better than R2T, and the versions of the songs are great. I actually waited quite a while to buy this, it seemed expensive for five songs I already had, but now that i have it, it's one of those discs i just can't stop listening to."
+12923,2,Good transaction,"Product arrived quickly, in perfect condition and was exactly as described. No problems with vendor. Very happy with product and transaction."
+12924,2,A must have for any designer!,"This is a great book for all kinds of artists. The presentation and content brings an international view of the use of color and color psychology. It makes you think twice about your color palettes, and with great results.A must have."
+12925,1,Disappointing,The lesson goes to quickly & before you know it Sabrina is ready to do the entire dance. Her voice is annyoing & she doesn't break the steps down slow enough. I've been a hip hop dancer half my life & this wasn't quality. Save your money.
+12926,1,More garbage than good advice.,I was very dissappointed with this book. I had hoped to get pearls of wisdom that I could share with graduates. There were a few gems but it was like looking for diamonds in a swamp.
+12927,1,In the wake of KoRn wannabee's.... yawn...,"Well, yet another KoRn ripoff with Metalica guitar riffs. These guys get an extra star because they did at least attempt to disguise themselves with a lot of lyrics you can't understand. But again that to is nothing new.If you like this type of music then buy it by all means, but at least buy it from among the dozens of bands that do it better. And please stop indulging bands like this who just throw together material from other bands they like and try to sound good."
+12928,2,Fantastic!!! Thanks to Those Who Made it Possible.,This is fantastic. Great story. Great music. I agree with the previous reviewer on all points except the one where he states that all musicians should see it. Those of us who are non musicians but love or or trying to understand 20th century music should see it too. Many many thanks to those who I think put in an insane amount of work to pull this thing off.

+12930,2,Collection of ideas and excersizes for the Mathamatica lover,"This work is best suited for math lovers and programmers that already have Mathematica on their computer (version 1.2 will work, though the book presumes version 2.0 or above).Programmers: If you want to practice writing Function based programming techniques and get away from linear based styles like C, Pascal, etc. this book is great. It is more fun than other books on Mathematica programming since it is oriented around puzzles rather than lessons.Math Lovers: If you love Number Theory and want to see beutiful explorations, this book is great. Certain chapters are more challenging than others, but there is plenty here for hours of exploration!"
+12931,2,A gift that was a hit,Boought this as a gift for a sister that had never used a knife sharpener and she loves it! Also sent her chicago cutlerty knives and a largo knife magnet to go with.
+12932,2,excellent but very sensitive,"This is an excellent product which helped us get sleep at night however I just recently discovered how sensitive it is: I took my son out of the crib after his nap and waited to check the alarm as I periodically do, and it didn't go off. The fan in the baby's room was blowing on the dust ruffle on the crib and that was enough to trigger the sensor. Needless to say, I don't run the fan in there any more, you should check for any movement in your baby's room."
+12933,2,A MUST for those who want traditional music of the season,Of all Christmas cds I have collected over the years this 2 cd set is a masterpiece! If you love choral music and traditional carols from the days of Charles Dickens this is a joy. No Jingle bell Rock or grandma getting run over by a reindeer. This music is the stillness and peace of Christmas Eve when all the rushing is done and you remember all the joys of Christmas' past. This music will take you there.
+12934,1,It's ok....I guess.,"No complaints about the flat side. It's flat and it distributes heat well. I bought it more for the ridged side though, ad that's where this product loses me. Food gets stuck in the ridges and just won't come off. Plus the coating is starting to flake off, so I dont want to cook on it anymore."
+12935,1,Hard disk failed again,"When I first got it, I thought it was great. Easy to use, adequate sound quality (not great). Then, as other people have said, the hard disk started grinding, and I lost all my songs. I sent it back to Tascam with a note for them to send me recovered songs if they could, and they did not. I got a new one which worked fine. Then yesterday, the hard disk locked and I lost the song I was working on. This time I could retrieve my other songs, so I mastered them, but the hard disk still grinds and I'm going to have to send it back again. Obviously a design flaw, and not the only one (why doesn't it have a back lit LCD? Why no digital inputs?). Don't buy this unless you want to lose all your songs."
+12936,1,Warning: Do NOT read!,"""Tartuffe"" by Moliere is a feeble attempt at extrodinary literature. The writing itself is lacking in drama and power, and the development of the play through rhyme patterns fails to alleviate the torment of reading it. The reader must realize that at the time Moliere was penning this work, he was in debtor's prison. His clever incorporation of monarchial laud was his means of finding favor in the prince to possibly mitigate his sentence, as well as for him [Moliere] to raise enough to set bail. ""Tartuffe"" is a boring play satirizing Catholic religion and ignorant people who are duped by a wily man using God to deceive and rob a family who cannot see the true nature of Tartuffe. In fact, ""tartuffe"" is French for ""thief"". I seriously would not recommend reading this play, and know 11 other people who would agree."
+12937,2,Mary Ann,Reading this book was a journey with my class. I had assigned a reading group this book and needed another copy for myself...how simple to click and find it on kindle! Challenging to keep up the assignment with the pages they were reading but sure handy when I needed the book instantly!Chu Ju was a remarkable story of a young girl who gave up the life she knew to save the sister she didn't know. Her journey through various life styles was mind boggling and so mesmerizing. The students who read this book found it to be one of their favorites!None of us wanted the story to end. This was a reading assignment for advanced fifth graders.
+12938,1,Language is an obstacle,"The author might have a great and insightful thesis to present, but I'll never know. The language is so obfuscating, I feel like I'm reading a lab report on photosynthesis. Clearly this book is not for me or my kind: the layperson. Or I'm just an ignorant moron."
+12939,1,COPTER,"THIS IS A NICE ADDITION TO THE SET. ALTHOUGH IT DOESN'T HAVE NOISES OR LIGHTS. IT IS NOT REAL THRILLING TO A CHILD, UNLESS THEY HAVE A GREAT IMAGINATION. MY CHILD DOESN'T USE IT THAT MUCH."
+12940,1,"Not the quality that I was expecting, but some redeeming qualities.","The beads on this necklace are very small and lightweight; they feel like plastic beads rather than stones. The necklace is also very short, so in general it reminds me of a little girl's play jewelry. However, with the right look it is still cute - just don't expect high quality. I do like the color. Also an important note: I almost returned this because I thought it had no clasp and it wouldn't fit over any adult's head. When I looked more closely, I noticed that two of the beads screw together and this is how it opens. That works to my advantage because I have an allergy to a lot of metal clasps, so for me the feature is a plus. If you have metal allergies, this necklace will work for you."
+12941,2,This book should be on every beginner's shelf,"One of our most prolific chess writers, Eric Schiller has again produced a most useful volume in his usual clear and concise style. Not intended to be the last word on chess, the Encyclopedia fulfills its promise of extracting practical nuggets useful for beginners and intermediate players from his own experience, the classic chess literature, and tournament play. Dr. Schiller truly does have an encyclopedic knowledge of the game and cites cogent examples from classic and contemporary play to illustrate his points. This is an easy book to browse in, and the reader will invariably come away with some tidbit that will enhance his/her understanding of the general principles of openings, middle game, end game, tactics,and strategy. Especially recommended for serious beginners."
+12942,2,"James Montgomery Boice's Commentary on Romans, Vol 1, Romans","As indicated by the title of Boice's four volumes on Romans, this is an expositional commentary. Not only does Boice give the reader a sufficient depth of understanding in the text, but especially helpful to those who are teaching through Romans are his illustrations and the organization of his material into a ""preachable"" style. And though the average Bible student will need other more technical commentaries to flush out his/her understanding of Romans, we find ourselves turning to Boice more and more."

He's a character who's. .well, he's funny without meaning to be, if you know what I mean!If you like a film with boys, comedy, disgruntled soldiers, good soundtracks and a good script, this is the one for you!!!"
+12945,2,Another Must Have,"Expensive, yes. But if you make your living with tools, this one pays for itself in no time. This is one of those tools that most people wonder what the heck will I do with this $400.00 plus tool set. Once you have it, you'll be using it all the time. Yes the e cut blades are outrageously expensive, I've bee making my own by cutting miter box saw blades and push/pull blades and welding them to a 1/16"" piece of metal that I bend & drill to match the mounting shoulder on the tool.Each blade takes about 10 minutes to make & I can make about 15 blades for under $20.00. The flush cut blade works better than the Bosch Fine cut, but the Bosch cuts deeper. The grout removal blade works like a charm and is way better & faster than recp saw grout blades. All in all if you are a renovation conttractor that does many different tasks, this is a great investment and you won't be sorry you spent the money."
+12946,1,Horrible,This isn't even worth the low price of $9.99. It never worked for me. I returned it to the store for a refund. I purchased a soup container for $2.99 and put boiling water in it. The water stays HOT for up to seven hours so I just warm my bottles in that. Works great! Don't waste for money on this.
+12947,2,"Wonderful, Especially for Beginners",This book covers pretty much everything to help you use the pendulum and receive accurate answers. It also stays secular which is a good thing.Most of Webster's books are well done. I recommend this book.
+12948,1,2000 SERVER EXAM CRAM,"I have taken and passed the 2k server exam, no thanks to exam cram though. There were errors in this book. I would contribute the most fault in this book to the lack of difficulty compared to the actual exam. The exam integrates what used to be separate exams into this one. Coverage on both the exam prep and exam cram lack any real substance. Most of the labs are weak. Coverage on terminal services, installations and upgrades and remote access are virtually non existant in these books, but are covered heavily in the exam. Beware of relying on these books for any exam preparation. They are, however, a good introduction to the subjects presented in other good books which is why I give it 2 stars."
+12949,1,"Not horrible, but nothing relatively good either","Directed by modern day schlock-meister Dominic Sena, Season of the Witch stars Nicolas Cage and Ron Perlman as crusade deserters that are reluctantly tasked with escorting a young girl (Claire Foy) to trial by monks after being accused of being a witch and bringing the plague to the land. Their party also features a few other characters, and naturally, things don't go particularly well on their journey. Let it first be said that Season of the Witch is nowhere near as bad as I thought it would be when I first caught wind of it. Cage and Perlman are good in their roles, but the unbelievably predictable script (granted the bit of a twist towards the end is a surprise) and overly brisk pace don't help matters any. For all its flaws, Season of the Witch isn't all that bad really, and warrants a look as a decent enough time-waster on a rainy afternoon."
+12950,1,Just Atrocious,"This movie was a 90 minute foot cramp. The inane plot, which attempts to appear both complicated and esoteric through use of classical references ends up being a complete and utterly predictable mess. None of the characters are given any life by either the script or the actors. The guiltiest of the lot is Juliette Lewis. Barely able to keep up with other actors as a co-star (see Natural Born Killers) she simply fails as a leading lady. The only enjoyment you may get from this film is of the ""so bad it's good variety"". But, even as far as unintentional humor goes, this film isn't all that inspiring. The movie, and Ms. Lewis in paticular, grate at the senses and insult the intelligence. Strongest recommendation to avoid. One day, mayhaps I'll stop being diplomatic and tell you how I really feel, but until then treat this film like a mugger with ebola and run far far away."
+12951,2,A heartwarming story of the best dog in the world.,"I grew up with the Lassie TV series so had a soft spot for her already. I purchased this book at our local book store as it was by a ""local author"" which surprised me as I live in Bucks County PA. (Lassie is actually buried here). I read this story to my almost six year old and the last few pages I was in tears, it was so touching. My son and I heartily recommend this book."
+12952,1,Piece of Junk...,"My son ordered one of these carts for his Mom and the cart broke in 2 days. Sent back. Ordered another cart as a replacement and it did not last any longer. Sent it back also. These shabby carts are not assembled well and critical parts are either missing or fall or break. Just plain Junk.On a good note, thank you Amazon for your great RETURN POLICY !"
+12953,2,Good Value!,"Definitely a good value for the money. I like the tall compact design for keeping on the counter. I use it every day. I've had it a few weeks and it works great. Water is hot and tastes normal. My only quibble is the on/off switch seems a little on the flimsy side and I wonder how long this will hold up. I saw some other reviews that had some issues with this. I had my old electric kettle for 10yrs+, and I'm not convince how long this will last, but if I get a few years then it is well worth it at this price."
+12954,1,Poorly written,"For some reason I really disliked this book. His earlier Talent for War was so much better. The characters here seem to act rather stupidly, unnatural and forced, and the endless explication of the female lead watching endless movies and spilling her guts to every joe on the street? WTF, who cares about description of fiction being watched in fiction? Seem like lots of filler. I haven't felt this irritated about a book since reading Brian Herbert's stupifying sequels to his father's masterpiece. I want to finish this book to see why it won the award, but the poor writing is forcing me to skip paragraphs. Not recommended."
+12955,1,Not my favorite,"I really thought I would like this tea, but I ended up giving it away. I like white teas, but I like green even more. I also generally like raspberry, but this combo didn't work for me. I won't buy it again."
+12956,1,NO NO NO!!!!!!!!,"I bought this thinking it was a ""real"" super audio cd player, boy was I wrong!!! The ONLY difference between this player's reading of the Sacd and Cd layer is that the Sacd area allows more information than the cd layer, otherwise this player gives you no real difference in sound between the two. It took me a long time to realize I was fooling myself into thinking that I was really enjoying Sam Cooke's ""Portrait Of A Legend"" SACD the way it was supposed to be heard. I have been doing a lot of research and found out a player has to have 24bit/192khz DAC capability to even begin to enjoy the SACD layer and this player does not use that method to produce playback of SACD.(If you're on a budget make sure you look for that in the techinal analysis) Once again this is NOT for anyone who wants to hear the true beauty of SACD. I am now about to purchase the Marantz SA8260 SACD player. It has gotten great reviews and was rated ""class A recommended"" in Stereophile magazine."
+12957,2,Love the series but....,"I am an avid 'original' Starsky & Hutch fan...I had the series books, Paul Michael Glaser lived on my wall next to Bruce Lee until I came home from college in '82, and let's not even discuss the Tiger Beat magazine collection I kept. I love the fact that the series is available on DVD but where is the quality with Season 3? Fans have waited 8 months for a better job and it's just not there this time. I am watching the series backwards, and the quality of ""Quadromaina"" is awful. It's grainy in spots and the part where Starsky's head connects with the glass of the cab was totally cut from the scene. And there are no promo spots listed this time around. Please, theres only one more season left, at least make it a good one!"
+12958,1,Assembly was difficult for this Verilux Lamp,"The pieces of this lamp are heavy and difficult to maneuver, especially if you have arthritis in your hands, but the company did not include a necessary L wrench to secure the pieces together. The directions were vague, but I managed to put it together without securing the shafts together for now. It works, but it is not necessarily safe as is. I had other L wrenches and small screwdrivers that didn't fit the holes. In the long run, although I'm not going to return it, I feel this item was not worth the price."
+12959,2,Great machine for the price,"I was looking for an inexpensive machine to make latte and this fits the bill. Simple process, and it works like a charm.It gets 4 of 5 stars because I have since discovered that I need a timer to turn the thing off - as I have left in on a couple of times. With a timer it gets a 5. Small issue is having to unscrew the frothing head after each use to clean it. It's easy to do but time consuming if you are in a rush"
+12960,2,"Button, Button...","For a beginner, who knows nothing of buttons, I'm impressed with the depth of knowledge in this book. It's a must for collectors, or for those wanting to learn more about buttons."
+12961,2,Allen Lacey wrote the intro - Not Tasha Tudor,"Sorry folks, Tasha Tudor didn't write the introduction to this fine book. Allen Lacey wrote it. That doesn't detract from the book, but it does correct the listing above.The illustrations are photoengravings of the original stone lithographs. Stone lithographs (chromolithographs) can take up to 30 stones to reproduce the color of the original. Chromolithographs, like wood engravings, are an original art form in and of themselves. They are, naturally, the size of the book itself, and not meant to substitute for the original paintings.This is an exquisite little book, issued in a slip case, and makes a nice gift for those interested in the asesthetics of gardening."
+12962,1,not what i wanted!,"I needed a micro cassette recorder that I could use it with headphones and with this one you cannot. When you plug in the headphones automatically the sound goes off and you can't hear anything you recorded quietly with headphones, without disturbing anybody."
+12963,2,"Gorgeous Prose, Engaging Story, Usual Quibble","I will admit that I was drawn to this memoir because of it's sort of sensational subject matter-- girl-girl obsession in SF! But I was pleased to find the writing to be absolutely lovely. I often found myself lingering over sentences, wishing I had written them.I will agree with the other reviews that there seems to be a mote of self-pity in this story, but I would guess that would come with the territory of such a story.And, as always, I am often suprised how people who live in such diverse cities manage to have so little contact with people of color. (I call it the Seinfield/Friends epidimic.) There are two African Americans in this story: one is an abusive drug addict (male) whom Kraus encounters in a night club (scaaary black man!) and the other is a sort of nurturing HIV-positive charity case who spouts wisdom and calls people ""child."""
+12964,2,mannix/Mike Connors: THE BEST!,"I was a huge fan of the show when it originally aired and I'm finding it even more entertaining now with the release of the first season. The format of the first season may have been different from the rest, but the Mannix character was as tough, charming, and clever as ever. Mike Connors was believable delivering a punch, charming the ladies, or being a wise-guy. I can't wait for the remaining 7 seasons!"
+12965,1,Desperate for a hit album!,"Poor Mariah, where has the talent gone? I had high hopes for this cd after the unfair treatment that was ""glitter"" and the mellow though consistent ""charmbracelet"". ""mimi"" is nothing more than a desperate attempt to relive the glory days of a once blossomed career. Why is every song ruined by guest rappers and hip hop? (to the floor,its like that).where is the vocals? where is the stand out uniqueness of earlier Mariah gems...""butterfly"" ""daydream"" etc. Mariah's desperate attempt to have ""street cred"" (circles,stay the night)has over shadowed all of the songs on here. This is a horrid cd that is over produced (joyride)and way too calculated(mine again) Pity cause Mariah was once a real talent. May i suggest an accapella record next time...just ""the voice"" and instruments would be nice...leave the rappers at home! A shame! D-"
+12966,1,This sucks!,"This doesn't even deserve a star it's so bad. I have been a Rod Stewart fan since the beginning and this is the worst cd I've ever heard. First off, two of the songs are NOT Rod Stewart, I have no clue who they are but they are NOT him. The rest of the songs sound like he is singing into a garbage can. It sounds like someone recorded this off the radio using a kids tape recorder. Even the cover looks fake. It isn't like a normal cd would be, it's printed off a computer with no info on the inside at all. It looks like a bootleg copy that someone recorded themselves."
+12967,1,Master Lock = Too Easy Pick!,"I've been using combination locks on my lockers since middle school. Yet, if you go to a giant college (large public school in general), like I do, I DO NOT recommend this lock! Recently, when I was in my body building class somebody tampered with my lock and got into my locker. The person stole my backpack, jeans, wallet, and keys, and did so WITHOUT breaking the lock, and even did me the favor of re-locking it before running off with my stuff! The only damage done to the lock was a few dents on the bottom and side and honestly, the combination wheel turns even smoother now that it's all beaten up. As well, there is no need to even beat the lock to open it. One can simply learn how to open a master lock combination lock with only a piece of a soda can, on the internet."

+12969,1,Waste of time,"This book is terribly laid out, with many incomplete or all too conveniently wrapped up plot twist options, with little tie together and wrap up. I read it on a trans atlantic plane ride and was angry that something so poorly crafted could be published let alone sold en masse. Just plain terrible..."

The battery takes about two hours to charge so a second battery is handy to have. I have had no problems with the string feed. Allparts were with the trimmer when I received it. The people who have hadproblems seem to be unlucky. I'm very satisfied so far. Its light weight makes it useful for my wife to use."
+12972,1,great idea but bearings are cheap,i have had 3 of these and each time the bearings inside went and it always happened with in 2 years.i am looking for one that can last longer now.also the other thing is the brushes dont reach the grout if your grout is a little deep.it will only get the top of the tile.
+12973,2,Very useful product,Very easy to fit and take off. No ploblems with them at all. They do not block the light as far as I can tell.
+12974,1,Piece of junk,First we got the item and it was missing a spring in the battery compartment. We made arrangements to send it back and it cost me @12 to do so. Then after 3 weeks we got a new one. This one does not alow the cover over the batteries to close and we have to use a piece of tape to keep it closed and I wonder how long that will last in the shower. A PIECE OF JUNK!

+12976,1,The book should be re-titled,"With the cost of over $60 and having a book that can cover so shallow is a 'rip off'. I think the book should be re-titled as `Idiots for Internet Security'. Even the books from IDG Idiot Series cover more in depth than this one. I spent 5 minutes and dropped this book to the bottom of the shelf. Most titles have a discussion of less than a page and some of them are not even relevant - such as `atomicity'. To be fair, the book should having a warning sign- `Strictly for non technical people'."
+12977,2,Would have been perfect ...,if the battery saving feature was optional. Difficult to just glance at current temp while in use and with hands full.
+12978,2,nice book,i will consider these book as a good book because the way it was written was somehow historical but the story is a nice story book
+12979,2,History,"This book came alive. I wanted to be there, I felt Tom's thoughts, I knew why Cassy was internally angry, and I wanted to help. I wonder if this book changed the conscience of society in the way it shifted my thinking. Harriet Beecher Stowe would be amazed with the improvements America has made. There is still a tremendous amount of hatred, racism and prejudice occurring today. Tom's morality gave strength to those around him. Close to one hundred years later Dr. King's anti-violent moral deliverance gave strength to those around him! The novel is pivotal for self reflection. If you're white and you lived in the 1700's; what would be your stance on slavery? What is your stance on racial hatred and prejudice today? Do not let history repeat itself."
+12980,2,LOVE this thing!!,"I've had one for 2 years, use it about twice a month. Grills sandwiches evenly, easy to clean (I just wipe it off with soft paper towels while the grills are still slightly warm), cord wraps tidy and the locking works great allowing you to store it vertically which saves storage space. The multiple settings allows you to cook thick/think sandwiches accordingly. Great product!"
+12981,1,Disapointing,"I was looking forward to viewing this movie, a favorite from long ago. However, the old pan and scan methodappears to have been done by an amature. Meaningless scenes, as people talking are thrown out of the pictureand a table and two pairs of hands are in the scene (an example). Also, the sound was muffled. I realize thisis one of the older movies, not made yesterday. But many movies much older than Bullwhip, do not have themuffled and distorted sound as this version of Bullwhip.Althought I enjoyed the story line, and the beautiful Ms. Fleming's acting, the obvious defects took awayfrom the total enjoyment I might otherwise have discovered while viewing this film."
+12982,2,good pregnancy workout,"I really enjoyed the pregnancy workout portion of this tape. Denise warms you up slowly before leading you in an energetic but not overly strenuous areobic workout. I was very fit before gaining too much weight during my pregnancy, working out through my 2nd and 3rd trimesters helped keep the pounds in check and my mood uplifted. My only crictism of this tape is the postpartum portion of the workout, is too short and not challenging enough to be an effective tool in getting ones pre-baby body back. Its okay for those moms who want to slowly ease back into shape."
+12983,2,Fascinating and Objective View of the 14th Century,"A Distant Mirror is a worthy addition to Barbara Tuchman'sreportoire of historical works. She brings to life the eventsof 14th century Europe and exposes chivalry and the churchfor what they really were: Corrupt people subjugating thepopulation of Europe.She uses the life of Enguerrand de Coucy as the centerpiece ofher treatment of the times. A prominent, but historically obscurenoble, Coucy is shown vividly in all his elegance at court andbloodthirstiness in slaughtering peasants who attempted to asserttheir freedom.No one can come away from this book without seeing the 14thcentury in human terms.Ms. Tuchman's work, as are all of her books, is a challengingread. Her grammar, although impeccable, is complex and imaginative.Not for the light reader, but fascinating for anyone who wantsto learn about history without sugarcoating or nationalisticslanting."
+12984,2,Rayman revolution,The game is really amazing the graphics just really shows up i like how the story goes and all and also the cool thing is that the rayman games are really rare and in this game the characters talk and that's better than the mumbling and grunting when i bought the n64 version they just mumbled and grunted until i bought rayman revolution they talked. And the story is a little different because in rayman revolution after passing woods of light you go to this guy and he teaches you how to swim and fight but in rayman n64 you just go in the fairy glade quickly rayman revolutions graphics are really cool and i like how they make the textures. Everyone should have this game its really awsome and roomers are saying there making rayman origins in the holidays and rayman 2 the great escape will be in the wii!
+12985,1,You probably know him,"You know the guy.You're at a party, restaurant, bar, or some other get-together, and you hear him talking at another table, braying really loudly and not a little nasally, making mincing little hand gestures as he complains about this person or that person, and states his intellectual opinion on all the latest books, art, fashion, and films, and he name-drops important people he says he knows, and all the hip places he's been to. You get a little annoyed so you turn to look, and -- like you predicted -- his hair is styled in that 'I'm trying to look like I don't care how my hair looks, but I spent an hour combing and gelling it just right' manner, and he's wearing a polo shirt one size too small with the collar popped, and he's making a lot of what he hopes are smart quips and jokes, but he's amusing himself more than anyone else. He's trying way, WAY too hard to be cool, and it's turning you off.You probably know him. If you do, then you don't need to watch this movie."

From my 97 year old father to my 20-something nieces and nephews, everyone has been absolutely mesmerized by this series. It's beautifully acted -- the casting could not have been better -- and the filming is brilliant. I cannot say enough good things about ""John Adams"""
+12991,2,A Good Best Of Foreigner,"I have always loved Foreigner since i was a little kid. The problem with some of the other best of Foreigner is that they lacked all the best tunes. ""The Best And Beyond"" should have been the best and then that should have been all we as fans needed to buy. I am happy to see Long Long Way From Home on a disc with Hot Blodded , Urgent and Cold As Ice! Another song i have always liked but never owned was ""Blue Morning Blue Day! As in most cds Foreigner had filler tunes but like Eddie Money the big hits over powered the cds anyway."
+12992,1,They ruined my classic book.,"I am so disappointed that they made my timeless book into this crappy movie. If I knew they would make this bad of a movie out of my book, I would not have written it! This was the worst adaptation of Jane Eyre EVER!!!!! There was NO chemistry between Jane and Mr. Edwards. It was painful to watch them kiss, I'm not kidding! The only good actress in the whole movie was Gemma Jones who plays Mrs. Fairfax and is from Sense and Sensibility. It is definetly a made for TV movie, and should have never been made into a DVD...if you prefer watching made for TV movies then you'll like it. I recommend either the 1996 version or the 1944 version with Elizabeth Taylor as Helen. This version misses all the important parts, quickly runs through her childhood, and skips her Aunt's death. There is no emotion in this movie and it has no suspense at all. Trust me, don't rent or watch it!! I hope this was helpful."
+12993,1,don't buy this book,"There was absolutely nothing hear that gave strategies and/or secrets to Panzer General 3D Assault! The instruction manual that comes w/this game comes w/ a better strategy plan for the tutorial, than any of the strategies listed here. Most strategies are one to three paragraphs long!! Hardly any info. for you to use. Don't buy this book, if you really want it, email me, and I sell you my copy for a buck! Thats about how much its worth! If I could rate this book a minus 1, it still would be over-rated!"
+12994,1,disspoint,"This item was not good the directions were confusing I read it five times and use it as it was written and it just didn't slice potatoes for french fries right, I ended give this item to a thirt store it wasn't worth the money I hope someone else get good use out of it."
+12995,2,Perfect for price,The camera is perfect. If using the camera for keeping in touch with friends and family this is the camera for you. The picture is clear not to grainy. The only heads up is lighting. Try to use the camera in a well light area. We are stationed in Japan and use the camera almost daily to spend time with family back home. The camera has added great joy to the family especially when feeling homesick. The best part is the price won't break the bank!
+12996,1,It's a Tiny Camera,"Very cheap. You can't delete pictures off of the camera. You just have to wait for the battery to die and it will automatically delete all of the pictures for you. (Don't worry though, that won't take too long since the battery life is only a few hours). As for picture quality, for the price it was actually quite good... that is until it stops working after only a few months like mine did."
+12997,2,PERFECT!,"High quiality ,glamourous All around champion . Surprise someone you know with a new designer phone! And a lot smaller than you thought it would be!!?? Yeah, right"
+12998,2,Hard life for a young Shaker boy.,The book was good. I recommend this book to any body who can deal with death. The book deals with things that happened in Vermont farm life in the early 1900.
+12999,2,The Truth about the Armenian Genocide,"One of the best documentaries out there which clearly depicts the horrific massacre of 1.5 million Armenians during the years of 1913 to 1923 by the Ottoman Turks. The movie proves that without recognizing previous genocides it is hard to prevent future genocides. besides the Armenians Genocide, the movie also concentrates on the Genocide in Darfur; furthermore, strengthening the need to recognize and help people suffering. The movie is a must-see. i recommand it to everybody."
+13000,2,Bob's new slippers,Great!!! Perfect fit. Hard to find a size 15. Have them on now. Sturdy. Price was right. Very happy with my purchase.
+13001,2,This Rules!!!! Best Thing I've Ever Owned!,"This box set is amazing, it has to be the best thing I've ever purchased. It contains 3 awesome live CDs from Mexico City, with awesome guitar solos, and tons more. The book is awesome too, you can see some letters Metallica wrote, and some awesome pictures. Now the videos are just amazing, the 2 San Diego videos are the best, better than any movie or anything I've ever seen. After I watched the two, I felt so energized, it was awesome, awesome guitar solos, and a REALLY cool drum solo (James played drums!!!). IF YOU DON'T BUY THIS THING, YOU HAVE TO BE INSANE!!!"
+13002,1,Better reference than a textbook,"This is probably better as a reference book than a text book. The chapters, while not long, feel excruciatingly drawn out. This book makes me feel stupid. On a positive note, if you can understand the concepts presented at the beginning of each chapter, the chapters end with lots of lesson ideas."
+13003,2,Another great one!,"This is the 2nd book that I've read written by Ms. Delinsky, and once again I loved her writing! The first book was Three Wishes, and that too was a great story. I love how her writing manages to whisk me away from the world I know and take me to another place with a great story line, plot, and happy ending. Wanna feel good when you finish a book? Try this one...check it out. Ahhhh, which of her books should I read next!"
+13004,2,a beautiful album,"The album dares you to dig under the abrasive surface of Mould's fuzzed out white noise riffs, but if you do you'll find an absolutely gorgeous album full of melody, vocal harmonies, catchy bass lines, soul searching lyrics, and hooks that will dig deep into your consciousness well after the record is finished playing..."
+13005,2,An undiscovered gem,"What happens when a powerful ruler lusts after a woman who is already spoken for; what happens when those who should resist the ruler not only stand mute, but even help him in his unreasonable lust?Just this kernel should sustain the plot; but enter a powerful and angry woman who has to become the ""king's whore.""Timothy Dalton is wonderful as he portrays a man who is so smitten he cannot govern with a clear head.A tale worthy of Tanith Lee's ""Sister's Grimmer.""Alas a bad title for a really good movie!"
+13006,1,Why they should show you the inside,"After waiting feverishly for this music book to arrive, I realized immediately on its receipt that it wasn't written in guitar tabulature, but standard notation. Since I don't read standard notation, it might as well be in braille. And because I know Benson uses some pretty interesting chords, the simple chords they use in the book can't possibly be right. If you're looking for a TABULATURE version of his work, look elsewhere."
+13007,2,Leading Edge,"Real Estate is an industry ready for change, and Lennox Scott is embracing technology, the Internet, and ""one stop shopping"" as the key to keeping real estate agents at the center of property purchases and sales."
+13008,2,If you love football...,I am looking in to coaching for fun and this is a great book to have. There is a lot of coaching information and great football information in general.
+13009,1,Not well made,"After barely weeks, one edge had begun to unravel...with gel oozing out. The seams are not well made. I have had somewhat better results with the Belkin F8E263-BLK Wave Rest Gel-Filled Cushion Wrist Rest Pad, a bit more comfortable, although one of the two I bought broke down at the edge after a year (not bad) and began to ooze gel. Belkin needs to think about having their Chinese manufacturing plant consider quality as part of the product."
+13010,1,Good product but always breaks. Cheaply made...,"I purchased two of these through a local retailer. The first one broke at the handle where the button is and stopped working altogethe. It would start up and then turn off randomly so it could never complete a heating cycle. It lasted for 6 months to a year. The second one I got as a replacement broke at joint where the lid attaches to the top so it just falls off when pouring (unless you want to hold it in place and burn your hand periodically). Yesterday it started leaking between the black base and bottom of the glass. After hearing reviews of their customer service, I haven't bothered to complain about a replacement. I am looking for an alternative. I liked the product otherwise. It's a shame it's so cheaply or badly made."
+13011,2,Heart touching and eye opening,"This book is full of emotions that a girl goes through when she has been taken advantage of by an older man. I guess this book is so mind-provoking because I know the author personally. She is a dear friend of mine and I know that she put a lot of tears and time into this book. This is her way of dealing with this incident. Now she is doing well, thankfully. Anyway, read this book if you like poetry that is slightly erotic and emotionally provoking."
+13012,2,Gold - Linda Eder,This album has an excellent variety of music and all beautifully done as only Linda can sing with a softness that Barbra cannot! An album where every song is a winner!
+13013,2,My new kitchen baby!,"Do you want to know how much I love this knife? I love it so much, I HID it from the rest of the family. It is MY knife, my new kitchen baby and I DO NOT want to share it! It works beautifully and is wonderfully comfortable even when cutting a LOT of vegetables at one time. Love, love, love, I LOVE this knife!Can I give it six stars?"
+13014,2,good reading,"good reading. I really enjoy reading Hannah Howell, she is an excellent writter. I have read most of her books and have never been disappointed."
+13015,2,Good but noisy,the chair is good looking and comfortable. The problem is it makes a little noise from the first time.Easy assembly also (everything included)
+13016,2,Good but controls are counter-intuitive,"This has all the options and size that you could want - and has a remote. However, even after reading instructions, the thing isn't very easy to control or understand how to control with the buttons..."

+13018,1,unstable,"This tool is a joke. I returned it the same day I received it. The hokey plastic connector is wobbly and ill concieved. Use one of the third hand extension poles (also made by fastcap) with the laser mount for 1/5th the price and better performance. Monsterously oversized blowmold case weighs more than the tool. This is one sad device, and would make its owner the butt of every ""limp pole"" joke imaginable. Look for this to be redesigned SOON!"
+13019,2,Presto,"This skillet is great I have been using it non-stop. Well worth the money! Easy clean up and even cooking, a great product."
+13020,1,Don't buy it,This book reminded me of all the soldiers I detested while I was in...Attitude problems galore...Nothing but complaints about everything...no desire to be a professional.
+13021,2,Nice,Very nice and durable looking seat!Spent several hours in it already and seems to be quite comfortable!
+13022,1,A Little Disappointed,"I actually purchased the CD because it was ""Gladys Knight"" and gospel music, but prior to opening it I decided to listen to the sample tracks and check out the reviews. Boy am I glad that I did! I really thought that Gladys was the featured artist on the whole CD, not so, she is only singing on a few of the tracks. I liked a few of the selections but not enough to keep the CD. Since the CD has not been opened, looks like this one will be going back to the store. Sorry Gladys. I also heard that Kurt Karr produced this one, so now I'm really dissappointed!"
+13023,1,What is this?,"I am looking for some additional arrows for my grandson. I've had to look all over this item to find how many arrows are included, I assume 3. Nowhere does it just state 3. How long are they? 22"", 24"", 26"", 32""? These are very very important questions! Yes? No? So, then I suppose at least one customer would address these issues or fill in the gaps. Nope! Well, there you have it!"
+13024,1,"2 Mos., Still waiting","Ordered this item October 26, 2005, have not received it as of December 27, 2005. Will never order anything through Amazon/Toys R Us again and will disuade everyone I know from doing business with them. It might cost a little bit more to go through E Toys & etc., but I've never had a problem getting something delivered via Standard Shipping within a couple weeks, not the two months and counting of Amazon/Toys R Us. Fully disapointed with my ""puchase""."
+13025,2,Be Smart With Your Money,"I got this from my dad 1 christmas ago ... I havn't used it since.It came with an episode of spongebob and nothing else.The controls are easy to use but aditional discs are expensiveas are the accessories. If you want strictly TV shows in black and white, and can't afford a portable DVD player, be my guest.However if you like colour... don't buy the ""Video Now Color""it's (...) and the discs are no better, just buy GBA video cartriges they hold 4 episodes of a show (and the screen is bigger and they're all in color).Be responsible with your money."
+13026,2,A Must Read!,"This book was one of the best. It is about a girl who is accused for murder while on a trip to Rhode Island. Avi uses desciption and vividness to pull the reader right into this book. While it is hard to explain as to what the book was about I will say that it is a must read and that if you have ever wondered what the hard times at sea where like and what the true meaning of friendship is like you will love this book. Charlotte, the main character, is easy to get to know and is someone everyone can relate to with her ongoing bravery and fears."
+13027,2,"EXCITING, ENERGETIC TRIBUTE!","Exciting, and energetic live concert that I could listen to over and over again. George Michael and Queen are a wonderful combination. Lisa Stansfield is the icing on the cake."
+13028,1,Pure Dribble,This may be the worse book ever written on handicapping.The author is definitely not a a horse player.Good title for a book that does not live up to the hype.
+13029,1,Not worth the money,"Being a long time Gentle Giant fan and having everything they've ever done, I was completely disappointed with this CD. The sound quality is so bad, I could barely listen to the whole thing. I play GG on my radio show quite a bit but got several complaints from GG fans on this one. If you want to hear GG playing live, I recommend Playing The Fool or King Biscuit Flower Hour instead. Just one more company trying to make a little money with an inferior quality product"
+13030,2,Such a great story!,This is a great movie for children and adults alike. Heart-warming and filled with hope at the end.Not one to be missed.

+13032,1,Crown of Bores,"I really enjoyed the first three books of the Wheel of Time. In fact I thought they were excellent. Book 5 was horrible, but Lord of Chaos (book 6) was another fine installment. Then we come to book 7. Truly pathetic. Looking for the tight writing and engaging style of the previous books? Looking for some real plot development and character growth? Then don't look at this book. Nothing happens. That's right, in a 700+ page book, nothing happens! The story doesn't move forward. It is filler material, nothing more. Robert Jordan should have been embarrassed to have ever seen this monstrosity go to print. I can only hope that future installments recapture the quality of past ones."
+13033,2,Beach Reading,"This was a fun book to read. Max and Lola are on a boat, alone, together and the boat wires are melted. Throw in an island, some drug running men, and a yippy dog and you have an exciting story.I felt the characters were believable and Max was certainly a fantasy man with all the flaws and character you could ask for. I particularly liked Lola. She was smart and interesting and fun and slightly dotty. Very fun.My only comment, I'd rate this a low five or a high four. I didn't think it was as steamy as advertised."
+13034,1,You have to like the heroine and I didn't,"My title is basically my review. I didn't like Charlene. There are strong women and then there are self absorbed whiny people, Charlene fits the latter. Why the author describes Dennis as being loyal and wonderful is beyond me. He didn't have the gumption to break off his ""engagement"" before he starts an affair with the wedding coordinator. Charlene needs some snappy dialog and some female friends to get her on the right track but then that would be a Jennifer Crusie novel.....the premise for this book showed promise it just wasn't well executed."
+13035,1,health hazard,"The product contents may be fine, but the pill size (22mm x 10mm x 8mm) is outrageous. I cut my first pill in half and it got stuck in my throat. After 15 minutes of not being able to either swallow or cough it up, I called 911. The paramedics wanted to take me, to the emergency room but after about another 15 minutes the pill started to dissolve enough to get into my esophagus (saving a $1000 ambulance ride). I had severe indigestion for the next 48 hours, and my throat is still swollen four days later. This product should not be on the market."
+13036,2,CLASSIC,"We all know what an excellent CD this is. No dispute there. But, is it me, or does she look totally strung out on the cover? Look at her eyes, she admits to being looking for a fix the first time she heard ""This Will Be"" on the radio. I ain't hating, just saying......"
+13037,2,His First Solo CD Re-Mastered,"It's got 7 good songs, the best one's are ""Killa Green"", ""Mobbin in Cali"" & ""Cruz All Night"". A good cd check it out."

THESE TOO GET A DISCOUNT WHEN YOU USE AUTO DELIVERY.PROVIDED AT AMAZON.COM.GET BOTH TYPES ON AUTO DELIVERY SO I DO NOT RUN OUT.AM DIABETIC AND GET THAT INTENSE ITCH. THEY RECOMMEND YOU USE NO MORE THAN 4 A DAY.
+13039,1,zzzzzzzz,"The production is good and everything, but the songwriting seems a little amateurish, too typical of the standard Garbage-influenced, female-singer, heavy guitar bands that are all over the place. Also, their press release makes a big deal about Mary Cushman's voice, but it's not like it's mind-blowing or anything. She has a good voice, but overall, there's just very little personality here. They may get better with time, who knows."
+13040,1,Attaching piece falls off too easily,"Bought two of these, one as a gift. On the gift pair the piece that hooks on to the ear broke on its second day. I first thought it must be the receivers fault, but then it happened to me too. I was able to repair my own pair, but I now believe it is a flaw in design. I haven't yet got around to seeing if Koss or Amazon will replace the broken pair, at the low price its hardly worth the effort to resend them. Otherwise, the sound is good, and they are comfortable."
+13041,2,GO FOR IT!,"This tape is simply fun and informative. I am not even pregnant or expecting to have to conceive anytime soon but I had to watch this. (I'm a woman, why not?) The lady is so corky and yet serious enough to have you practically writing notes like your in a college. I would recommend this video to anyone interested in REALLY learning about childbirth. She explains everything. How your body should be functioning, what is stretching, what liquids to look for as signs of this and that, charts of how the baby is actually sitting and how exactly it's growing and she even quizzes the husbands! There is so much to learn. Open a bag of kettle corn and grab a pillow though, it's like four or five hours long. PHEW. But it probably wouldn't be best to watch it all in one sitting anyway. It is a lot of information to grasp. Enjoy!!"
+13042,2,Excellent Book,This books touches on relegious aspects of the modern days. It touches on important points of the Gospel of Jesus Christ that the New and Old Testament leave out. For anyone who has the desire to better themselves this book is the one for you.
+13043,2,Excellent,"This was fast, easy, got it in time (it was a birthday gift). All around an excellent transaction."
+13044,1,Narada Guitar,"I did not care for this CD which is a first for a Narada CD, which I have many of. When it played I kept going over to my CD player to see if it was stuck and just repeating the same few seconds. I finally took it out and stuck away in a drawer - hopefully never to be seen again."
+13045,1,i hated this item,words cant express how badly i hated this item it didnt work at all and left a gross stinky substance on my body and the little pads the give you dont work...alcohol works after a while but all in all i hated it and will never suggest this product to anyone
+13046,2,Not bad.,"My son is 5. He and his cousin each received these hats. His cousin is also 5. The quality is pretty ok. The only negative is the shape of the hat. The one pictured is basically perfect, while the two we received have a bit of an unusual fit. But, the kids seem to enjoy them, and most of the adults that have seen them made comments about them being pretty cool.We paid $19 for each hat. I would say $13 would be more appropriate."
+13047,1,DO NOT BUY THIS CAMERA!!!!,"I am terribly discussed with this purchase. I bought this camera on my way to the Houston Astrodome to welcome the evacuee's from Louisiana. I most definitely wanted pictures of what I witnessed. Guess what!! NOT ONE PICTURE TURNED OUT!!I am irate, to say the least. I trusted this product and was let down during one of our countries historic events. Simply returning this camera and getting my money back DOES NOT begain to repay me.The program itself is complicated, from the driver download process to viewing the photos. I saw my pictures only once, then could never find them again. I took several pictures and some short video, but found that none of them had been saved in the camera.Vivitar, you owe me a HUGE appology. How can you sell a product like this for more than $10 which I happen to think is too much for it."
+13048,2,great,"People often accept popular lies when the truth is harder to swallow. The only treatment for this is knowledge, education, and understanding."
+13049,1,An accomplished liar,"As part of the right wing ""scream machine"" Bill attempts to win over people with his ""common sense"" approach. What is missing here is a guide to all of the misinformation and outright lies that regularly get through the rhetoric that makes up the bulk of his statements. It might not be fair to say he is a liar since he is so damn ignorant.The fact is that he doesn't really care what the truth is if it is inconvenient or contradictory to one of is over-inflated opinions. To call him a journalist or to connote any relationship to journalism is to make a scurrilous statement against people that actually work to research and report what is happening in the world as opposed to his sick fantasy dreamland."
+13050,2,Kick It Around - James Hunter,"Hi All! I am guessing that by now you know that it takes a very, very special CD to rate being reviewed by me. Average maybe, one in every 20 is reviewed. Well here is one that literally knocked my socks off when I played it. James Hunter a young German National has captured the essence of the 50's & early 60's Rock and Rhythm & Blues. One sensational track followed by another. Listening to James and I find no problem at all picturing him with the likes of Little Isidore & Little Leopold. The sound is THERE!! Doing a couple of oldies and a load of originally written tunes. All vocals are by James Hunter. Along with his vocal abilities, he plays one Great guitar. This will be evidenced on the one instrumental offering on the CD. I know you will feel the same as I do when you sit and listen to James Hunter. Did I say SIT?? Well you won't be sitting still!!"
+13051,1,Don't be fooled.,"Unfortunately, these knobs are such that they only work on certain stove knobs. If I put the knob thru the plastic, I cannot turn on the stove without taking the knob off, plastic cover off, and putting the stove knob back on. It's just as easy to take the knobs off completely and put them on when I need the stove. Waste of money."
+13052,1,Beware of WiFi,"First of all I want to say that the seller was great and offered a refund on this horrible item. After trying for a couple of hours to get this product to work, I found out that it doesn't work on alot of computers. Now I have to go through the trouble of shipping it back."
+13053,1,He can act and he can write but the man cannot sing,"I bought this album with great expectations because I love Russell as an actor, but I think his singing must be an acquired taste and I'm not willing. If the band played alone this would be a fabulous listen, they are very good, but Russell's singing only gets in the way. Do yourself a favor and listen to the samples before you spend money on this album. Russell writes very well but his words are not really conducive to lyrics, there are just too many of them."
+13054,2,"Handy for skis, bikes, etc.","Got this as a ski lock, but it will serve as a nice, easy to carry bike lock too. Great price!"
+13055,2,Out of the Cocteau-Clone Zone into more maturity,"Overall, I think this ablum is a lovely piece of emotional, achingly melancholic, charming music. Harriet Wheeler & Co. have managed, over their long hiatus, to emerge from Cocteau Twins Clone mode and into a truly satisfying, sweet and ear-pleasing groove. Rather than Cocteau Twins, their sound now is more reminiscent of Mazzy Star, Innocence Mission, later Natalie Merchant, more mellow Belly, and even Rubber Soul/Revolver-era Beatles at points. Though I really don't have any fovorite tunes on this CD (they're all great), I especialy like the slightly sad, pastel melancholy of ""Cry"" and ""Leave This City"". Overall, this album is their best effort to date."
+13056,2,Excellent,"I found it an excellent introduction into the field of ethno-musicology, that has somehow turned from a ""also-to-be-considered"" outsider in musicology to a pace-maker in a diversified musical world of internet and globalization. Nettl is, it seems to me, deeply rooted in an old European philological tradition nevertheless, that positions its subject within the frame of the ""masters"" of musicology and ethno-musicology alike and stands apart from a lot of word-rich ""cultural studies"" blabla that is extensively published (less read, I suppose ?!) today. A great book !"
+13057,2,"Not My First Choice of Movies, But Still Worth It","When I first thought above rating this box set, I thought that I would give it a 3 out of five, but then I went and retrieved the set from the video shelf. The more I closely examined it, the more that I realized that most of the movies included in the set are great films. Not only for children but for adults as well. I find myself choosing the film for the evening and not my son. I guess age has its privileges. Mulan has to be my favorite followed by The Little Mermaid. Probably wouldn't have purchased Hercules if it wasn't included in the set, but it is still a good film.Then I thought to myself, would I purchase this box set again. The answer is simply, ""YES!""My only true disappointment is that Disney has not released a second box set yet."
+13058,2,A few simple words that add up to a timeless treasure.,"Taking a refreshingly simple approach to a very complex subject, Thomas has given young people, and those older people who still seek insight in all places, a wonderful perspective from which to view the most basic Christian principles. Unencumbered by hidden agenda, or an author's need to correct the social problems of the day, this book achieves more in its few beautiful words than others could hope to achieve in volumes. The youngest child and the most experienced adult cannot help but hear its gentle message about the joy of keeping Jesus first in our hearts and sharing that joy with others."

+13061,2,really good tiny camera,"Honestly, I bought this camera in good part just because I wanted something tiny that would fit into my purse when I went out at night. If you're big in photography I'm sure you'd be frustrated with it, but for the rest of us, it has enough preset settings to take good pictures, just enough control in the manual setting, and is really easy to figure out how to change settings. The zoom isn't super, but it's a great camera for snapping pictures of friends and family and for landscape shots, and I have gotten a few good close up shots too."

+13065,2,I don't know but I've been told,"This is excellent. My main problem running is that it's too boring. With this CD, the rhythm of the combat boots on pavement keeps me running at a steady pace, and the chants of the drill seargents and responses of the recruits makes it interesting. The only downside is that at 40 minutes, I wish there was a box set with 4 or 5 of these so I could listen to a different CD each day of the week."
+13066,1,tired rehash of father-son bonding scenario,"I'm sorry but there was just nothing original or noteworthy about this film about a father and son who learn to 'bond' while taking their family's tree to be planted in Washington DC. Along the way the boy meets up with his online girl 'friend' who decides to tag along, without Dad knowing... and gruff Dad starts having feelings for the go-getter PR woman (and vice-versa) traveling behind them arranging for media attention. The plot was predictable from the get-go, and the acting was uninspired.... about as 'wooden' as the tree they are carrying in the back of the big rig. Mediocre Hallmark viewing here; certainly NOT worth buying the dvd in my humble opinion."
+13067,2,Awesome. Came very next day!!!,Just as described and incredibly fast service. Thank you! Getting it fast was important because my son needed it for school.
+13068,2,Tiffany's sophomore effort is mediocre,"Tiffany Renee Darwich's sophomore effort is mediocre compared to her 1987 self-titled debut. ALL THIS TIME is the only Top 10 hit from this set,released in fall 1988. Darwich was still relentlessly receiving fanletters and appearing in teen-oriented publications such as 16,Bop and Teen Beat. However,in 1987 and '88,MCA was distributing many hit records recorded by Darwich's labelmates Bobby Brown,Elton John,The Jets,New Edition and others."
+13069,1,"Loud, Bright, High Action! And Borrrrring","Amazing how so much action, noise, pulsing rock music and lively young actors can add up to such a dull movie. I rated it one star because Amazon won't allow Zero stars. This one is unwatchable, literally. Not even laughable so you can't sit there and mock it. It is just boring and dull. Rent anything else at all - you're sure to like it better."
+13070,2,Another Thriller!,"Brad Thor's second book was another thriller.In this book your hero is once again Scot Harvath.After his rescue of the President Harvath starts tracking down the remaining members ofthe kidnapping team.The remaining members get killed off by askilled killer. All signs point to Hashim Nidal son of Abu Nidal.This terrorist is trying to provoke a war between Israel and the Arab world.The chase for Nidal is fast paced and covers Chicago,Libya,Capri,and Rome.Pay close attention to the silver eyed assassin. This is an action packed book that you will enjoy reading. The ending of the story is also vey exciting. Buy this book. You will enjoy it."
+13071,2,Knowledge is power,"This book makes sex fun by taking away a lot of the anxiety and nervousness. By knowing what you're doing, it really frees you up to enjoy the experience and give even more passionately. Helped me take sex to the next level!"
+13072,2,Pokemon Diamond Version,This product is a great buy. I recommend it to all those fans who like these adventure type video games.
+13073,2,Simple and effective,"This performs exactly as advertised on the description and in reviews. I used it to spray rustolium enamel on window box frames. It works well with the thinned rustolium and because it sprays a smaller pattern there was little overspray/mess from spraying the narrow wrought iron sections of the box frame. Clean up is simple and a snap, and I like the ability to store unused product in spare mason jars. Overall a neat simple product -- highly recommended."
+13074,1,penthouse forum for teens,For grades 8-10? Only if your kid is all about graphic masturbation and talking like a truckstop hooker. This series is just garbage that was either written by said truckstop hooker or by a lonely shut in who never had friends and imagines this is is what the cool kids did. Dont waste you money or give your kids the impression that highschool is all about booze and sex and being annoying. Thats what college is for.
+13075,2,Excellent Space Drama,"Timothy Zahn has a reputation for taking the reader completely by surprise, but- unlike many 'big climax' authors- making the whole journey a fun read. He has definitely outdone himself in ""The Icarus Hunt,"" which is packed with intrigue and excitement. I was totally blown away by the startling conclusion, and the amazing thing is that in retrospect, it all fits together! This is truly the mark of a master storyteller."
+13076,2,Not hard to make a decision on this one....,"Ok so you have to make your mind up when watching this if she was raped or not...NO IT WAS NOT.....watch this documentary with an open mind, as i did. i did not judge this untill the end...then i came up with ""no it as not rape"" that girl could have left at any time, and never made an attempt to do so...make you own mind up but do watch this..very interesting.no it was not rape.she got scared and cried rape...i would say she regrets that now."
+13077,1,Where did Elizabeth Lowell Go?,"Since you already have reviewers who have given you the premise of the book I'll not duplicate. I never write reviews -- this book was so annoyingly poor that I was determined to say something. What happened to Elizabeth Lowell? Where's the author who wrote the other ""Always"" books or the ""Only"" series or the rest of her books?!! The premise was a good idea -- but I think she started to drown in all the characters that had to be brought in to make the premise work. And, one paragraph love scene, does not a Romance Novel make!! By the end of the book I couldn't have cared less about anyone of the characters -- I just wanted the book to be over! Do yourself a favor and wait for the paperback. The hardback was too expensive for the lack of pleasure you receive. Sorry Elizabeth, you're too talented a story teller to sell your public this lackluster excuse for a novel. I gave you two stars because you sat down and tried to write something!"
+13078,2,"Truc,k Extender Big Success","I bought my truck extender from Amazon and because I was in no hurry, shipping was free. Cool! Received it about 7 days after I ordered it. Took longer to open the box than to install it on my 2006 Dodge Dakota pickup. Works excellent. Now I haul my three 12' kayaks in a short bed pickup with no problem. Absolutely no complaints. Works as advertised. Every other site offered it for $99.95 plus shipping. On Amazon, I got it for $79.95, shipping included. Oh ya!"
+13079,2,Not Bad At All,"An interesting take on the story of the birth of Jesus. Not state of the art animation and no big stars or flashy script but somehow, it keeps your interest. I enjoyed it and so did my 8 year old. As noted in another review, much of the story is from the perspective of an old donkey, which actually adds to the story. A new treat we discovered to enjoy during the holidays."
+13080,2,David's at it again,This David Shannon book has taught my grandson the do's and do NOT's. It's a funny escapade through David's house but Momma loves him no matter what!
+13081,1,"Great for AA, but not AAA batteries","Got this charger about a month ago and used it for AA batteries the first month. Now we have been trying various AAA rechargeable batteries in it, with no luck. It still works fine on AA batteries, but using AAA batteries of the same age and brand does not work. It is a great charger if you only want to charge AA batteries, so I gave it 2 stars instead of only one star. But for me, this is going back and I will get a different charger that can handle both battery sizes."
+13082,2,"Surveys the history, rules and strategies","""Go"" is game which was invented in China over 2500 years ago, making it one of the oldest known games in the world, and one which is still being played today. Enjoy reading Peter Shotwell's Go!, a spiffy blend of instruction guide and instruction on theory and play which includes hundreds of diagrams as it surveys the history, rules and strategies of an ancient game."
+13083,2,Benecol Chews,"I gave Benecol Smart Chews a four star rating due to the fact that for me, reviewing the efficacy of this product is near impossible on account that I'm also currently taking other anti-cholesterol supplements in accordance with my wellness provider. The four stars is for ease of use (tasty/chewy) and for its delicious caramel flavor. Yummy!"
+13084,1,This is a great album...,"...if you are a cheesey college student alterna-rocker wannabe than this album is for you. If you are a loyal and dedicated Sebadoh fan then you will find nothing interesting on this album. Eric Gaffney is gone, and so is the sound that made me a Sebadoh fan. This is a bunch of guys on the verge of selling out big-time. Although, i must say ""Magnets Coil"" rocks!!! and so does ""Dramamine"". But after that, you just kinda gotta search around the disc for the good songs. Everything else is pure boredom."
+13085,1,Biggest piece of garbage EVER,"I have owned this product for over a year and it is truly, bar none, the biggest piece of garbage ever. Customer service is non-existent. When I was using DSL for my internet connection, I had to reset my connection at least 3 times a day. Now that I changed to cable internet, I still have to reset the connection at least twice a week. I would give this product negative 10 stars if I could. Truly an awful product."
+13086,1,"This is not really an 8"" pan!","Description lists this pan as 8x8x2. It is not. The sides are 1 1/2"". The inside dimensions at the widest/top part of the pan (the sides slope just a bit at the botton) is 7 3/4"" at best. This pan fits entirely inside my old ""real"" 8x8x2 pan. I'm keeping it just because it's going to cost me almost as much to send it back. It is heavy metal."
+13087,2,Enthralling CD of enchantment!,"This envoking CD is joyful and enchanting! The playful and up lifting song, Linus and Lucy, reminds me of the times at Christmas, watching the Peanuts special with my family. I will always keep this CD in my player and never take it out! I am addicted to this CD. It is rich in character and will make anyone smile."
+13088,2,Jim Reeves CD,"This CD is absolutely beautiful music. In the 1960's I had the LP Record and played it so much it was scratched and worn, and later burned in a house fire. I was thrilled when browsing Amazon.com and found it in CD format. It is one of my all time favorites!"
+13089,1,Terrible,"Possibly one of the worst television shows ever created, this series totally destroys any quality its amazing premise had with horrible plotting and dialogue, and acting that was even worse. Rightfully cancelled mid-way into its second (even worse) season, ""Galactica"" somehow found its own little niche audience.Like any other series created by Glen Larson, it has a great premise, but can't get anything else right. The characters are poorly drawn, swaggering fools, and the Cylons are even worse. They're slow-moving, dullards of machines. It's a wonder even the foolish crew of the Galactica and its rag-tag fleet were able to defeat them so readily EVERY TIME they go into combat.Avoid this set, unless you're REALLY into watching bad TV and movies. This belongs on the same shelf with movies starring the likes of Steven Seagal and Freddie Prinze Jr."
+13090,1,"Critics, like most of this album, suck","""Only Shallow"" and ""Sometimes""... those two songs are great, and they are example of what this album SHOULD'VE sounded like. Instead, we get 9 other tracks of buzzsaw guitars and ungodly feedback. In fact, the feedback is so irritating, suffocating, and unsexual that it makes JAMC's ""Psychocandy"" sound like a gentle lullaby. I don't know how they got $500,000 to make this album... I could make this entire record if I just got drunk enough to want to stand next to my amps and play power-chords. ""Loveless"" isn't an awful album, and the ideas are there, but they're not executed at all. If this was the band's vision of perfect than it should be no wonder why they haven't made another album in 16 years. This is just another example of the media hype-machine and spineless critics who either want too much to be different/unique, or are too afraid to form an opinion of their own. MBV should take a class taught by Mogwai or Sonic Youth, the real engineers of sounds."
+13091,1,loved him on youtube...,"i am a big reader, and i'm also into weird animal facts: enter John Green's ""Top Ten Animal Power Moves"" YouTube clip which I came across randomly. I clicked around some more while in the Vlog Brothers rabbit hole and found out that John Green is a novelist. I didn't realize initially that YA meant Young Adult, because of my limited exposure to the genre. Instead I actually thought people were just really enthusiastic about his work, so I ordered Looking For Alaska. It didn't have any emotional or philosophical resonance with me. I finished it because he is easy to read and occasionally funny, and at least engaging enough that I kept at it hoping for the book to plunge into something to which I can relate. That moment never happened for me, and I would not recommend this book to anyone over the age of 12."
+13092,1,Pretentious and good for the ignoramus,"This album is good for those ignoramus who don't know anything about early music or any of the composers featured on this album. Go to the source, I say, or listen to the Hilliard Ensemble or Anonymous Four or other authentic yet gorgeous renditions of these pieces. This is a pretentious piece of work from someone who neither has the musical understanding nor the techincal skill to sing early music, not to mention awful diction! But who said that what is commercially feasible is necessarily a work of art?"
+13093,2,Smart,"I think this book is very smart. It made me think about dating in a whole new way, and at age 58 being back in the dating market for 8 years, that's really saying something! The ideas are really creative - I can't wait to try them out, espcially Step #9."
+13094,2,Provides over 50 blocks in four sizes,"Nancy Johnson-Srebro's Block Magic provides over 50 blocks in four sizes, using rotary-cut shapes and simple piecing to make their construction very easy. An excellent, recommended quilter's guide."
+13095,2,"I could have lived without the ""filler""...","Well, sometimes, the old ways are best. Some times, picking what fits on an LP forces choices that really prove to be wise. The extra, ""lost"" songs that were rescued from the tape vaults or from other oddball LPs don't, in my opinion, add much to a pure, utter classic LP, per its initial incarnation. I would love a disc with the original cuts in the correct order, because such a disk (like ""Out of the cool"") is an integrated whole -- more than the sum of its astonishing parts. I do like hearing the previously lost bits, but instead of forcing this overstuffed, clunky playlist on us, how about a two-disk set, with the original LP playlist on one, and the lost stuff on the second.But I complain too long. The original ""Individualism"" is a colossal phenomenon. Gil Evans IS individual, and what a loss that he's gone."
+13096,2,One giant leap for the gameing Generation,"Nintendo did it! I have been wondering when one of the 3 were going to pull out a new idea. Cause not one company has come up with anything original in Years. The Wii is an absolutly amazing console. Now granted most of the game are childish, but there are a small handful of cool games out there for it. I got mine used and with out Wii Sports, but in all this console is just too cool for words."
+13097,1,Not worth the money!!!,My daughter HATES this toy. She has had in since 2 months and she is now 5 months and she STILL HATES it. It is too busy. She gets over stimulated and then upset with it. When I take most of the hanging toys off of it she is OK with it but then gets board. The musical flowers don't entertain her and the angle that the mirror is at makes it almost impossible for her to see herself in it without being so close to it her nose it practally touching it. I would say don't buy it. Spend less money on a similar one but don't spend the big bucks on this one. My recommendation would be take the money and buy and exersaucer. They will also last longer.
+13098,2,Great workout,"I didnt expect much from this dvd, but I was delighted I made the purchase, from the warm up work out I was sweating, then I did the basic and for 20 mins i was dripping with sweat, I must say I love it, once I am sweating I know it is working, also my thighs were burning so yay, once it burning they say its working, so I am very glad I added this to my collection"
+13099,1,Poorly Executed,"This game had a lot of potential, no matter how lame the movie may have been. The graphics were good (especially the lighting efects), but the polygonal characters... frankly, they stank. I know Lucas Arts can produce MUCH better titles than this, after having played Jedi Knight and Pod Racer I know it's possible. But this one was rushed to the point of releasing on beta level! The sounds were great, just as most of the other Lucas Arts games are. They are usually pulled straight out of the movie. The most annoying aspect of the game was the camera angle. What were they thinking! You could barely see in front of you. It would have been better for a completely overhead view, than that annoying angle, in which you couldn't see twenty feet. Anyway... I'm not even going to waste my time writing about a game I was sorely disapointed with."
+13100,1,"Fire Sense Deluxe Patio Heater, Unpainted Stainless Steel","The aluminum cap is very thin. The material bends VERY easily. The Pilot light system is not reliable. This unit is VERY hard to light even on a zero wind (calm day). The flame adjustment knob movement is cheap. Not solid feel. Would not buy again, and if someone would give me my money back I'd be so pleased. VERY disappointed."
+13101,1,bubble foot bath,The foot bath makes a mess with the water and does not keep the water warm. A lot more hassel than it is worth. Sorry I spent my money on it.
+13102,2,"Very quiet, a little big for a bullet","I'm a big fan of the Lucid Dreams collection. They're all super quiet, and excellent quality. You can NOT go wrong with this brand, I promise you that.Having said that, this particular bullet, it's a little big for my taste. External use is awkward with this big one, but nice nonetheless. It's got a great shape for penetration, especially anal. However, if insertion is your intention, use a condom and leave the ring hanging out. That way, you can pull it out by the condom rather than the cord. Cords can always snap off and that makes for a trip to the emergency room. Buzzkill!"
+13103,1,Battlefield FLOP!!,"Bought the game the day it was released with eager anticipation given all the hipe. I'm a loyal fan of Meddle of Honor so I thought I couldn't go wrong given EA was behind the development. Big dissapoinment! Gameplay lagged, game detail looked rushed and unpolished, there was no sense of nostalgia that the Meddle of Honor series engendered and the campaigns were poorley conceived and developed.My advice: save your money and wait for the Meddle of Honor expansion due out in November. Battlefield 1942 is a big flop!!"
+13104,1,Won't start,"My neighbor and i each have one ofthese - older models - and neitherwill start. Not even a hint oflife. The key does engage thehandle start.... but nothing.Would love to try them out -My electric mowers have always started,LOVE electric yard equipment. No gas,no oil, no aparkplug."
+13105,2,Easy MPG Boost,"Bought this for my Saturn after I saw what the previous owner did to the air filter. K&N never disappoints. Once installed, I got an added 3-5 MPGs which really add up in the long haul. Totally worth it."
+13106,2,could have replaced $1000 of counseling!,"bummer we didn't hear about this book before we started therapy. my husband is a healing vacillator and i a healing pleaser, and after one month our lives have changed outstandingly. it's true about more and better sex:-) this book has helped much with setting boundaries with my parents, as well as positively imprinting my 2 year old daughter. what a change!just read it."
+13107,2,A must have for the Xbox system,"This game was awesome!! I totally didn't expect it to be this good but it kept me on the cotroller for hours and hours at a time... which you had to because every time I had beat a level thinking that it was the end of the game, a new level would pop up... I didn't mind it one bit. I gotta admit the graphics aren't on par with the best them but the game play and replay values are tops. I'll take this game over any of the Medal of Honors, Red Faction II, and Riddick."
+13108,1,Died after a few months,This is the second time ive had this headset break. The first time it broke in a year after the cord kept on disconnecting from moving. The second time it happened after a few months and it just wouldnt be recognized in windows.
+13109,1,"This is so, like, shallow","What a waste of paper. Do not waste your time on this book, unless you want to learn deep facts like what kind of cheese Ms. hughes recommended that George bush put on his cheeseburger on 9/12/2001. good lord, is this what our country has come to? As a life-long Republican, I am appalled."

+13111,2,A fun farm fairytale,"A wacky cast of characters converges on a small English village for this rural fairytale. The primary character is Rosie, a London illustrator who escapes to the country with her reluctant newspaper columnist boyfriend, Matt. Once they reach the village, they meet a host of quirky villagers. There's Samantha, the washed up, self-proclaimed ""celebrity"" and her disgruntled husband, Guy, Matt Locke, the reclusive rock star, and Duffy the postman, who is also the town gossip, just to name a few.Rosie and Mark's relationship begins unraveling in the country-she is happy, he is not, he's a jerk, she is not. Their unhappy cohabitating leads her into the arms of other men, those belonging to craggy farmer Jack, and then those of Matt Locke. Farm Fatale is a light, enjoyable Cinderella story that gets a bit sappy toward the end. But Holden is a clever, funny writer, and for the most part, this happy little farce works well."
+13112,2,Yellowcard Rocks!,"I've always been a fan of Yellowcard, I'd sing along with their songs when they were on the radio but I never owned their cd's. Recently I heard ""only one"" on the radio and I honestly stopped in my tracks when I heard it, and I started listening closely to the song.I fell in love with the song and the emotion I heard when Ryan sang. I realized that I really liked this band but never paid much attention to them. So I went out and bought the cd right away. I couldn't believe what I had been missing. This album is really great and not your regular ""punk rock"" this has a violin thrown into the music which gives it such a unique and awesome sound. I think this album is a must buy for anyone."
+13113,2,WOW,"I bought a pair of these to do some hiking in the mountains of Guatemala and the Cascades of washington.... WOW, I took them out of the box and could have started hiking then. They are extremely comfortable and needed NO breakin time. I am considering buying another pair, just so I have a spare. Cant recommend enough."
+13114,1,One Of This Years Worst,"If you have ever seen the older version with Henry Fonda and Lucille Ball, then you probably know that this is the most unnecessary remake ever done. There have been countless shows and movies (Cheaper By the Dozen 1 and 2 come to mind) that have all played the ""mismatched couple with a rediculous amount of kids"" card and this movie is a contrived piece of cinematic junk. I wonder what the director was thinking throughout half of this movie. Not only are their eighteen kids, what would really make this movie better would be to add an annoying pet pig to the whole mess and let it eat everything in sight and knock everything over. Shame on the directors, shame on the actors for taking these parts, and shame on their agents for finding this horrible, unfunny, rediculous remake of a movie. This film will go down as one of the years worst along with The Dukes of Hazzard and Fantastic Four."
+13115,1,Oh a little balance please...,"Hard to believe the reviews praising this worthless rag. For me, the jokes arent funny save one or two, the story is incredibly stupid, and unbelievable, the acting is phoned in (Will Smith,shame on you.Your better than this), and most of all the editing sucks.Other than that I guess its a great movie.Bay turned in great works with ""Armageddon"",and ""Pearl Harbor"",but this one is a real stinker."
+13116,2,Great Product But Watch The Price!,"This is the best men's bronzer I have ever used. However, the average store price is around $13. Be aware of merchant's trying to sell it for $20. You can pick it up at many stores for $13 and find merchant's on the web who offer free shipping at this price."
+13117,1,Fell Asleep,I did not like this movie in the least. It was a chore to watch and find the point. I had to stop the movie 3/4 of the way through and go to bed I was so bored.
+13118,2,Michael Scott Avalon kitchen Cart,"My husband and I spent an entire weekend searching for a reasonable priced kitchen cart at our area furniture stores. It was frustrating and a waste of time. I was reluctant to turn to the internet for furniture but had few options. I found the Michael Scott piece on 3 or 4 websites. Amazon had the best price and a delivery date of less than 10 days versus the others 6 week time frame. The quailty of the piece was better than expected. It arrived in three seperate packages, all at the same time and in perfect condition. I would definately look to use this manufacturer in partnership with Amazon.com for similar items."
+13119,1,waste of money,"Being in the military, I have a limited amount of time to get back in shape after having a baby. Along with daily exercise and a super healthy diet, I bought this item to help out. Sure it helped me look alright under clothing(assuming I didn't move far or sit down) but that was the only benefit. Every time I sat down, it would scrunch up. After I left the hospital, I had a 34in waist. This product was FAR too tight. My husband had to help me and even he struggled. I wouldn't recommend this product to my worst enemy. If you're looking for something that actually works, buy the ""lytess new mom wasp waist panty"" from blissworld.com I'm almost back to my pre-pregnancy size!"
+13120,1,"Rosie ""a little girl engine""","Rosie, to my knowledge has guest starred in one video. Thomas regards her as an annoying girl with a crush on him. She ends up helping him out of trouble and I suppose this is an attempt to attract young girls to Thomas land. Alas the video runs a game section where we learn that Rosie is too little and weak to pull regular trains like the others. She gets to pull inflated ballons to children's parties instead. Not the kind of message I'd want to impart to my child."
+13121,2,This is the pop/rock album worth listening to.,"This is a rare album. Rare in two different ways. Rare because you probably won't find it very easily if you ever want to pick up a copy, and secondly, it is one of the most incredible and creative pop/rock albums I've ever heard. And for pop music, ""incredible"" and ""creative"" in the same sentence is quite rare. Paul Alan has crafted sincere lyrics, passionate vocals and crazy catchy melodies that are much more rewarding than most of current radio. Honestly, this is one of those albums which will have you singing with every song. That is, if you enjoy singing along to music. A great CD for cruising the highway. Its a pop record with intelligence and thoughtful storytelling."
+13122,1,What a lousy software!,"Bought it. Tried it. Absolutely hated it. I have purchased and used many packages from CAD to photo manipulation. This is one of the most difficult to use.I had a unique hang up in the software so I called their tech support. No call back. So I searched the website (most user unfriendly). Downloaded and installed a patch. No go. To make a long story short, I had three calls without answer and I am returning the package to the company. The best thing about the software is that they back it up with a money back guarantee for 60 days. If you buy it, you may need it!Poor software. Terrible support. The box has a tag line ""From vision to plan in a weekend."" Not in this lifetime."
+13123,1,Rantings of a Bigot,"Much of this book is an opportunity for Forman, a self-described liberal, to abandon tolerance and not merely criticize, but express his deep hatred for those with whom he disagrees. Fortunately, I didn't buy this book; instead I read it at the home of an unfortunate person who did."

+13125,2,This is an Awesome CD!!,"I purchased Enrique's first CD a while back and it was O.k. I didn't like a few of the songs on it or on Escape, but this CD is absolutely incredible! Two of the best songs are ""Be Yourself"" and ""Say it"" They have a great meoldy and a good message."
+13126,1,"Horrible product, didn't last a year","These were great at first, but if you plan to use the functions, (ie. phonebook, caller id, anything with the arrows) don't plan on using long. On all three of our handsets, the arrows just stopped working. I called Uniden and waited on hold for 31 mins. To which they say there is nothing they can do, we have to replace the units ourselves. Their warranty is only good for 12 months. So if you are 12 months and 1 day over, you are basically out of luck. BUYER BEWARE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
+13127,2,Completely original and ahead of its time...,"The second-worst selling album in Columbia history (behind a yoga record) is one of the most original rock records you'll ever hear. It's hip, virtuosic, funny, rockin' and has a freshness that still holds up 30+ years after the fact.I was given a vinyl copy of this in the late 80s as a gift. I had never heard of these guys and was quite intrigued with all of the artwork and the song titles. I sort of groaned at the length of the songs, some running 17 minutes, and thought this was probably another out-dated psych/ Dead-type jam record. Upon my first listen I was changed. The songs all have tons of character and narritives that are labourous and everything is surprisingly listenable, even with different sections and interludes and time signature changes, etc.I would recommend this to anyone searching for something truly original. It's a great record, not just a novelty item infamous for its commercial underachievements."
+13128,2,Good replacement and quiet.,"This was used to replace a malfunctioning power supply on a ship.It works and based on a power supply tester it puts out voltages very close to spec. It's also fairly quite, not that it matters for where it ended up though..."
+13129,2,I was amazed with the quality!,"I was really amazed with the quality of the DVD. My husband loved the Martin Show so much, I got him the entire series. And the pricing on this site was much better than the stores pricing. Plus I got free shipping! Couldnt beat it with a stick!"
+13130,1,Diappointing,This game is very disappointing. There is actually very little to do and see. It requires a parents help to point and click the mouse and has very little interaction. Other CD's capture my 21/2 year olds attention for 3x as long. It is rather expensive and keeps a young childs attention for only 10-15 minutes. I read several other reviews saying it would be better for older kids - but my 5 year old daughter complains the CD is boring with nothing to do. I suggest Reader Rabbit or Fisher Price Little People instead.
+13131,1,a bad joke,Big&Rich are like Brooks&Dunn Meets Cleadus T.Judd or something. alot of there material comes across highly gimmicky&I don't get half the hype.they are like the Spinal Tap Of country&I gotta believe that all the Forefathers of country Music are Cringing at this act.
+13132,1,A Jood Mess,"I'm sorry, but did I read the same book as the other reviewers? I purchased this book just knowing it was going to be off da chain just based on the reviews from this site. Damn I was wrong. I own every book in the B-boy Blues series and I must say that this maybe the worst of them all. What about going out with a bang? I gave this book 2 stars just because he caught us up pretty well with everyone. I consider the rest a jood mess."
+13133,1,To much Dangle for a Dongle,"This Dongle dangles tooooo much. Too short for the back of the computer and way to long for the front, my pc's on the floor and i had to tap the unit to the side of the machine to keep it out of the way. And since the product i ordered to use this with, didn't work. I can't talk about if it worked at all. Just felt like a cheap product."
+13134,2,Ozawa does it again!,"If you have problems drawing expressive characters get this book immediately! I can't begin to tell how handy it is to see a variety of characters (young to old, male and female) with their own unique manner of displaying an emotion (fear, smugness, unease, etc). The book goes a bit further and helps you how to translate that emotion into a panel or animation scene for maximum impact which I find quite useful.This is the most comprehensive book on emotions from facial to full body expression regardless if you're into realistic or more simplistic drawings. Get your hands on one if you can."
+13135,1,Where's my shoe?,"This is supposed to be relaxing ambient sound, the sound of a summer night in the countryside. Unfortunately, this recording must have been made at ground level near a marsh. This CD is full of the sounds of cicadas, crickets, and other six legged denizens who set up a shrilling that can put your teeth on edge. And given that the loop of sound is only about 30 seconds long and is repeated for nearly an hour, you might find yourself reaching for the Raid.There are, to be sure, much better environmental recordings."
+13136,2,Outstanding breaks!,"Love this album, bought it a few times already! Nice bass lines for the sub's in your car! I just wish they made a part 2 of this album!"
+13137,1,Leaves hair greasy,"I like to try new hair products from time to time, and decided to give Organix Shea Butter Liquid Glass Serum a try. I have shoulder length, medium-thickness hair. I used it twice, and both times it made my hair feel really greasy. The first day, I used one pump's worth and my hair felt really bad all day. The second day I used half as much and got essentially the same results. This was a wasted purchase."
+13138,1,Not nice.,"This Graphic Novel starts some years after the Return of the Jedi movie. It shows how the empire reacts to the downfall of the emperor, and how a war for power emerges inside the ranks of the empire. Although it starts fairly nice it continues weakly and the reader loses interest. Only for Star Wars Fanatics."
+13139,1,Marble Paper Towel Holder,"After the frustrations from the delivery company ""OnTrac"" I finally received my package but when I opened the box - as I had feared (because the product wasn't properly packaged with protection, it was BROKEN!!!! This has been a HORRIBLE experience. All I wanted was a simple marble paper towel holder and I had to go through all kinds of frustrations from the delivery company and then ended up with a BROKEN item!!!!!!!!!!! It's so damn frustrating because I have more important life details to manage than to have to spend days on end just trying to get a stupid paper towel holder!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I want my money back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And the shipping money too!!!!"
+13140,1,I hate this book,"This is one of the least user friendly textbooks I've had while I've been an engineering student. I feel that it doesn't explain complex topics that require a lot of calculations very well. It provides absolutely no answers in the back of the book, so you have no idea how you're doing until you turn in your homework and get an F on it. I wish we were using a different text."
+13141,2,Best trash can Ive ever had,"I love this trash can. It works perfectly. All you have to do when it arrives is pull it out of the box, put the batteries in, put a trash bag in and yoy are ready to go. There is a ring inside the trash can that holds your liner in place. Just simply wave your hand over the front and the lid comes open and closes by itself. It is a little noisy but I have teenagers so if the lid is opening then I know they have eaten something. lol..... Anyway enjoy the trashcan. Well worth the money!!"
+13142,2,No Music!,"This book is not sheet music.Complete lyrics and librettos (scripts) for these Musicals:Of Thee I SingPorgy and BessOne Touch of VenusBrigadoonKiss Me, KateWest Side StoryFiddler on the RoofGypsy1776Company"
+13143,1,Nothing but dreams and J-lo anthems.,"Has everyone in the word gone batty? The poor girl is SCREAMING her lungs out! I don't hear any singing.I'd say buy it for a seven year old, but it'd be quite the bad influence. Jojo needs to finish highschool."
+13144,2,This book rocks!,"The authors have a refreshing collective voice, and it's so great to finally be encouraged, rather than be told the usual statistic, 'only 30% of women have orgasms-- you should just be content as you are.' I am so thankful that I found this book by chance; I'm buying copies for friends already."
+13145,2,This stuff is amazing!,My 3 year old son has severe ezcema. This summer it was so bad it was everywhere and he was scratching himself like crazy. Within a week of using CeraVe it was under control and 2 weeks later it's almost completely gone. I've started using this on my dry skin (especially my dry feet). It's really amazing how it soaks in and seems to actually change the skin. So glad the doctor recommended this!
+13146,1,A Field Book of he Stars,I have been interested in Astronomy for a long time. This book is filled with great information regardingg the stars and different constellations. Unfortunately there are no plates or maps to go along with what is being said. With maps or plates of the different constellation would make the book a 4 or 5 rating on my list.
+13147,2,Great updated edition,"2nd or 3rd time reading this and I love the additional content. Like the critics say, it's so well-researched, erudite, yet comprehensible and excellent narrative style. Facts are easy to follow and absorb b/c of clarity and analysis. Also learned so much. Have tried reading other works to understand today's conflict in Middle East, but just keep coming back to Max Dimont to help understand the history - both course of events and context - in an enjoyable way."
+13148,1,Worst Floyd Album,"I'm a fan of Floyd, but there's a reason the band hated Atom Heart Mother: it sucks. Pink Floyd was in an awkward transitional period between Syd's departure and the escellent Meddle, and this is a sign of just how awkward said transition was. The twenty-three minute, sidelong title track is a piece of crap, other than Gilmour's bluesy guitar. Sure, it pointed (like A Saucerful of Secrets' title song) towards future excellent extended works such as Shine on You Crazy Diamond or Echoes. But you're better off LISTENING to said extended pieces than this one. If comes next, and it's an underrated acoustic piece, certainly the best song here though it doesn't make the disc worth a buy. The record then stumbles with a couple of weak acoustic songs (Fat Old Sun; Summer '68) and closes on a very bad note: Alan's Psychedelic Breakfast. Unless you think the sound of breakfast being made and commented on is brilliant, of course. The cover, however, is awesome."
+13149,1,Barry,Bought this unit in May of 2009. It worked perfectly for about a Year today It quit working.Installed new batteries in both units works when both Units are next to one another but when moved to It's existing outside location just dash lines.
+13150,2,a wonderful story,The Hollow Kingdom is absolutely enchanting. As with all good books I read and love I was swept fully into the story. Ms. Dunkle has an extraordinary imagination and sense of creativity. This is a terrific fantasy tale that will entertain adults as well as young people.
+13151,1,Nice try,"A sneaky attempt to whitewash history. When Germans commit atrocities against Jews, they're the epitomy of evil; when Jews commit atrocities against Germans, it's an ""eye for an eye"". The message: Jews can do no harm."
+13152,2,This is a must have for a toddler!!!,"We bought this for my son's 4th birthday. Within an hour he had taken 84 pix and still was not bored. Any toy that can hold a 4yr olds attention for that long gets all thumbs up from me!!He's dropped it many times and it still keeps working. No damage can be seen whatsoever. My only compliant is that the rugged plastic that it's covered in shows all kinds of dirt. So this camera does need a wet wipe taken to it every week or so.My son loves the built in games, and has masted them all in a few days. I wish VTech would sell a memory card with a few more games on it for this unit.I would recommend that you get a memory card, because that way if the batteries go dead you do not lose all of the pix.The only real drawback/complaint that I have is that this unit is not rechargeable. Batteries last about 2-3 weeks depending on how many pix are taken w/the flash."
+13153,2,Love Boxwave screen protectors,"Very clear, you can't even tell there is a protector in place. It stays put - no curling up on the edges or bubbles appearing. The protector seems to be just a hair smaller than the glass screen itself which is a GOOD thing in my opinion. Because if you put a tight case on it, sometimes the case would catch the edge of the protector and start to pry it up. But since the screen protector doesn't quite reach the edge, it keeps the lip of the case from hitting it curling it up."
+13154,1,Not adjustable!,"I love the design of all of the mobiles in the Wendy Bellissimo collections; however they do not fit on all cribs and they should be made to be adjustable to fit a variety of crib styles, since there are SO many out there. I was so disappointed to finally be able to purchase since they had relaunched them and then to pay $50.00 for one and get it home and it not fit I was DEVASTATED! Now, I can't find a mobile to match the theme I chose! Cute designs but not practical! Before you purchase make sure that you don't have a thick railing on the top or sides of the crib, the pole does not extend and will hang too far into the crib. It does not work well on the new popular sleigh cribs, just an FYI!"
+13155,1,Rust and Durability Issues,"Once I found that the 2 metal stabiliaztion contact points left rust marks, I started repositioning the gripper. After a couple times of readjusting, the suction no longer worked and the gripper would fall off in the tub quickly."
+13156,1,The name says it all,Add me to the list of people who are having a maddening time with Cranky's head falling off constantly. My son loves it but is himself frustrated by this poor quality. I quite understand that with all things Thomas there are certain elements that you just have to have BUT if you're not facing desperate need from your child then I would skip it.
+13157,1,disappointing,"Ditto what Michael Polich said. More Cherokee than Creek/Muskogee - so why not use a Cherokee town name and say it is Cherokee? Or use John Swanton's Creek Religion and Medicine or Bill Grantham's Creation myths and legends if it is Muskogee? Or just make up a place and say unknown SE American Indian tribe/group/town?I was just plain old disappointed with this effort by Dr. Hudson. He has done better (Southeastern Indians). This isn't much of a literary effort or ""historical fiction."""
+13158,1,Moore preys on less sophisticated youth,Hitler used similar film methods in 1930s to rile up the youth of Germany. Lies and more lies twist the mind of the youth while thundering music plays behind vivid scenes. Take some time to look at the Hitler movies and you will see uncanny parallels to Moore's style. The means justify the ends. The ends are questionable.
+13159,2,The anti-divorce box,"Um.. wow. That's all I can say. This box clearly saved my marriage :) Now we no longer fight over who will clean the cat litter. It's easy, clean, mess-free. We have 3 cats so we have the large and daly cleaning is a snap.."
+13160,2,this guy's in love,"This is the third CD I have of Steve's as with all of them it is superb, cannot get it out of my player every song is a classic, move over Rod Stewart this guy has it wright.what a shame we do not here more about him, but once discovered never forgotten a real Gem."
+13161,1,BEWARE,Buyer beware. It took over two months before I received an issue. Still have not received but four in six months. Yet I did get a renewal bill 8 months before the scheduled date. Also I got a book in the mail that I had not requested. I was to send it back if I did not want it and they would send another for my review. If they did not get the returned book I would be charged even though I never signed up for their monthly book club. Expect a weekly intimidating letter requesting payment while still not receiving the magazine you originally ordered. This is a scam to get you hooked with a cheap magazine price then send you material and/or tools you have not asked for. RIPOFF>>>>
+13162,1,The Cuteness Runs Thin...,"While this musical starts out strong, I find that it quickly becomes nothing more then another obnoxious musical that uses poor rhymes and flat music to tell the story of the Ugly Duckling. Yet, there is indeed another problem. Whose story is this? Uglys or his mothers? Well, the authors surely didn't make a choice and neither did the director of the production I saw. I also find Act incredibly drawn out and then Act 2 it was as if hte authors realized they needed to wrap up the story. Not to mention the last song (Look at him Reprise) is probably the worst song of them all. (All the splender of a noble swan/ from a duck into a paragon) What kid knows what paragon means? anyone. Overall it was a good try, but falls short. Thought I'd say a good show for a low budget..."
+13163,1,Just utterly terrible,"No one really knows what they are talking about in this film. People just seem to talk. It's just bad. I can't say one good thing about it. There is no footage of Nirvana outside of some interview footage, which really isn't even that good. Most of the film is listening to people that kind of, sort of, might have known Kurt Cobain. It's just bad. Don't buy!"
+13164,2,Running Blind (Jack Reacher No. 4),"I thought the ending was a bit ""flat"" compared to the first three Jack Reacher books. Also, I thought the degree to which the FBI tried to set Reacher up stretched believability and necessity. However, all in all I have enjoyed the Jack Reacher books and will purchase future titles."
+13165,1,Movie Viewer while traveling,"Save your money on this one. Unless you enjoy long, drawn-out dialogs with little or no action. Very boring and couldn't finish the last half-hour. It's kind of like survivor with less action and disconnected story line. Can't imagine why it won so many awards."
+13166,2,nice for the office,"I purchased this for a dental office for the actual operatory. We wall mounted it because counter space is very limited. Everyone comments on how sleek and modern it looks. The only problem I have with it is that once mounted on the wall, it is not easy (almost impossible) to access the jack to hook up an accessory item (like my iPod) so I can use that as an alternative source of music. It would have been much nicer to have that jack on the side, not the back of the unit."
+13167,1,Does not function properly.,"This Maxwell item is useless because it constantly stops every minute or two on all 12 VHSC tapes I own. What a disapointment and I did not know it's poor performance until after 30 days, so I'm stuck and will just throw it in the trash. Perhaps a battery operated one will work."
+13168,2,At least we have it in the catalog...,"The oratorio itself is quite good, as is almost everything Porpora wrote. The singers, unfortunately, do not measure up to the quality of the music they are performing. So, five star oratorio, two star cast... Good orchestra and direction."
+13169,1,Kids love parents don't,"The track did not assemble as it should. The parts didn't fit right and caused the whole track to be off. Several people tried putting it together so this is not one person's opinion but several. Kids loved it even though it didn,t stay together well and the cars didn't stay on the track."
+13170,2,Captain Horatio Hornblower,I'm so glad that I order this DVD with subtitles for hard of hearing. This movie is very good! I have been watching the old VHS without captions! And now I enjoy it! Thank you!
+13171,1,vornado heater,I own 4 Vornado heaters. One is the VH2 and the others are EH models. When they work they are great but I have not been able to use any of them for more than 2 winters without something going wrong with them. 2 of them were recalled and one of them is broken again! Since I want somethig that will last more than 2 winters I will not be buying Vornado again!
+13172,2,Perfect,"Plastic, but heavy plastic and not shiny, a mat finish so it blends in with the vinyl floors perfectly.Color was exactly taupe!"
+13173,2,Botany at its most entertaining,"The author loosely applies the label ""North American Wildflower"" to all blossoms now running free on our continent. Many were brought over by early European settlers and the plants quickly jumped out of the garden and into the wild. Author includes snippets for each plant from other literary sources dating throughout the centuries (some very funny and bawdy!)"
+13174,2,The Help,"The DVD, The Help, arrived in excellent condition and in a timely manner. I enjoyed watching the movie and have shared it with others here at home since receiving it."
+13175,2,Nutcracker,"This is a wonderful interpretation of ""The Nutcracher"" Outstanding performers! I realChristmas treat for everyone!!I would recommend it to anyone. It would be a great treat for the whole family to watch!"
+13176,2,Early positive showed up on these strips,These strips have shown a positive at least a day before the more expensive tests. It helps take the money crunch out of TTC.
+13177,1,waste of money,"Go to your local Tractor Supply Store or Horse feed store and buy ""Pelleted Horse bedding"" TSC has them for about $7 for a 40lb bag and its the same exact stuff as feline pine."
+13178,1,No durable power of attorny,"I was very disappointed with the book because it did not contain a template for a durable power of attorney. The only power of attorney document I need to prepare is a durable power of attorney, and this was not included with the book, even though the Table of Contents and Index imply there is sufficient information to prepare this document."
+13179,2,A Different Type of Thriller,This complex novel kept me wondering what was going to happen. It was beautfully written and so different from the typical mystery. The characters are all wonderfully engaging. The ending was not shocking nor was it what I expected. I look forward to more of this type of writing
+13180,2,Great for light duty sweeping,"I purchased this sweeper because I was recovering from back surgery and would be spending a lot of time at home. I needed something very light weight to keep my small, carpeted apartment fairly clean. I was pleasantly surprised by this sweeper's ability to pick up my and my cat's hair, and both of us have long hair, as well as the falling leaves from my hanging ferns. It even picked up spilled coffee grounds from my linoleum kitchen floor! The only problem that I have encountered is that it REALLY picks up electrical cords! Of course, I wouldn't recommend doing a shag rug with this sweeper, but it's great on low-pile carpeting and bare floors."
+13181,2,Tom Cruise!!,"Jerry Maguire is about a sports agent (Cruise) who suddenly has a new view on his job. He decides that he needs to make less money but have better satisfied clients. After sharing this ideas with his entire company he loses his job. Scrambling to keep some clients, he sets a deal with one football player.(Gooding Jr) Together the two of them must become friends and work things out to earn each other money. Along the way Maguire has kept one employee that wants to have more than just a official relationship with him. Do the 3 of them pull things off and work together?? Watch the movie and find out!"
+13182,1,my basic instinct,"Basic instinct is probably a good book. Unfortunately I never received it, in spite of the fact tha Amazon has collected the money for it. There is no way of complaining, and every attempt to know where the book is will fail. Only automated replies arrive, but the money Amazon has collected is real. I am very disappointed."
+13183,1,Good-Bad Movie,"Belushi is soooo embarrassingly bad that his performance actually makes the movie worthwhile.The film overall you ask ? Well, there's a very good reason for its relative obscurity...it's just awful."
+13184,2,A very sad and terrifying movie.,"If you are emotional or easily depressed this movie is not for you. It pulls on every emotional heartstring and sometimes I am not sure it wasn't done as a cheap way of getting a reaction. The slaughter of the innocents with some dystopian touches. Whatever, it does not make a difference, this movie is heartbreaking. The scene where they are in the restaurant with the other couple who had heard a rumor, and the reaction of the woman after speaking to the three main characters is tragic. If we truly live in such a world where these kinds of values are paramount, and there is so little regard for life and such selfishness and greed, this world has no hope. Given the history of the 20th century, this movie might be saying that we may be living in that world already. That is the terrifying part."
+13185,2,Ludacris-Chicken n Beer,I bought this cd yesterday n i think its top dog! I av listened to it bout 8 times nah more like 28 times sad i no but who gives a .... Anyways this album is a must buy and to all the peps lovin luda get dis cd an quick its all u want in a cd an more!!!!!
+13186,2,LOVE This Workout,"Quenia Ribeiro is AMAZING!!! i love this video, she really does a good job with teaching the moves to you, you get plenty of time to learn to do things. cues are great, workout is fun, good warm up, great music. There's no cool down, but that's something you can do on your own. good choreography, workout is a good length. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!"
+13187,1,Real review not just a DRM complaint,"I love games like Civilization and the sims. This is a bastardized version of both. It is insulting how little thought has gone into the complexity of the game.Also, I know this is due to the DRM, but I bought the game so I could play and when I am not on my computer my daughter could play too. She is not allowed to have her own account on my computer. So, if you have fmaily members without their own computer they are SOL.Worst purchase I ever made."
+13188,2,Good acid jazz,"Nice album... has a medeski, martin, and wood sound mixed with hip-hop and acid jazz. very good for techno, hip hop, and acid jazz fans."
+13189,2,bronco portfolio,This is an excelent book for early bronco fans. It give a good number of origional articles and reviews of the early Pony. If you are looking for some history on the Bronco this is a good resorce. If you are looking for restoration help you will not get much from this book.
+13190,2,This CD is a jewel!,"Rod Stryker guides the listener to inner quiet with clear, concise instructions. He offers valuable long term tools that are easy to use and integrate. I like to listen to the first few tracks horizontally in the evening to slow down. If you've even thought that meditation might be a good idea or if meditating is not new to you, this CD will enliven your existence."
+13191,2,Not bad but no better than Al Wadi,"Not as mind blowing as their olives.Peloponnese is a fantastic company; their olives are extremely high quality. Nonetheless, I thought these would be even better than they were. They are very good, but I like their competitor ""Al Wadi""'s grape leaves just as much."
+13192,2,Great tool for saving your wrist!,"This tool works perfectly with a battery screw driver to help you do the tedious task of tightening numerous red and yellow wire nuts. I purchased it for building a new house where I'm doing all the electrical work. Putting pigtails on all the outlet boxes alone is enough to make my arms/wrist sore in the morning, and this simple tool spins those on quickly and effortlessly. It works great on the larger yellow and red wire nuts, but as advertised - it doesn't work on the smaller orange/gray ones that don't have a flange to grab onto. Very much worth the small investment."
+13193,2,Give it time...,"I actually had to read this one twice before I liked it. I'm going to blame myself for that. I loved Tinker, and was jazzed when Wolf Who Rules was finally released, so I read it very quickly the first time, and almost immediately lost the plot. I was so disappointed, I re-read Tinker, just to remind myself how really great it was, then forced myself to go slowly, and read Wolf Who Rules again. The second time, everything fell into place.The elves look human but their culture is so very alien, the shocks and surprises in this book happen without warning. The story takes place only days after the first book ends, and Tinker is having to get used to her new body and her emotional reactions after being finally saved from the Oni. The good guys are not always good, the bad guys are not always bad, and the wacky dreams Tinker is having are adding to the confusion.It is a wonderful book, but not an easy one. Read it slowly, give yourself time to enjoy it, you won't be disappointed."
+13194,2,Perfect Condition,Item was ordered as a Christmas present and arrived in perfectly new condition as described. It also arrived ahead of expected delivery date - easily in time for Christmas.
+13195,2,brillant post-rock,"after a plesant listening of ""millions now living must never die"" ,i expected a lot from tortoise.hopefully, TNT doesn't let me down.compared to mogwai,i think the music of tortoise has more textures&variety,& their creativity seems endless .though i prefer mogwai better."
+13196,1,green day show posers like the clash how to make real punk,isnt that right??!?!?this cd is so awesome i listen to it all day. the lyrics are so good and i can relate to themim an ugly lonely 17 year old and they are too
+13197,1,Regret for Sucrets,"These are so strong with throat numbing ingredients that all the other benefits are quickly overlooked. Hey, oral surgeons: forget anesthesia, just use these suckers. So strong that I had to question: ""Is this normal? Will I be able to talk later on coherently? Am I drooling?"". Metal box is a plus for hiding small trinkets."
+13198,1,Don't Take the Bait!,"Having fun at work...a great concept, but Lundin's book is meant for a 5th grade mind, not a fully functional adult. The theory behind the book is relevant but Lundin's delivery is all too simplified and doesn't have practical application of how to do this. And what's more, Lundin gets hired to go to big corporations to throw FISH dolls around for $1000's of dollars. The problem is that he's there for a half day and once he's gone, the fish dolls gather dust.If you want to change your workplace, it takes more than throwing a stuffed fish doll around. You have to have a set of values that honors people and find ways to execute on those values EVERY day.But you have to give Lundin credit, he's made an empire out of books meant for elementary school as well as over-priced workshops and DVDs that all say the same message.But if you're a smart and intelligent leader, bypass this simpleton text and do some research over at the Harvard Business Review...."
+13199,1,SAVE 90 MINUTES OF YOUR LIFE!,"What a waste of film. I'm not a prude and can handle fart jokes with the best of them, but an ENTIRE MOVIE of fart jokes? If it's funny at all, it quits being funny very early in the film.If your idea of a good time is watching fart jokes, uni-brow women, or ""fat mamas"", than this flick is for you.For the rest of us, I suggest picking another movie...ANY movie.Sure, I knew what to expect when watching this one, but it didn't have me laughing at all.I like the Blue Collar Comedy group, so thought I'd give this one a try. BIG mistake.Save your time.Save your money.Save your life.'Nuff said."
+13200,2,The devil is great,"I wonder if all the bad reviews on this book are from people in the fashion industry...hmmm..in any case, this book is never marketed as 'War and Peace' as the author puts it. It's a light read-perfect for the summer or a cold winter day. I think most people can relate to the boss from hell and kudos to the author for having the guts to write this book. I tihnk we can all relate to being a lowly assistant treated like garbage. The best revenge is success--and this book is certianly successful. so if you're looking for a light summer read, and can relate to having a boss from hell--you'll like this book."
+13201,2,The Best,To have the collection is the best gift to thy self. The product was well worth the purchase. It was in very good condition and arrived before time. I was very pleased.
+13202,1,Like wrapping your legs in vinyl,"I cannot recommend these pants unless they are marked down to an obscenely low clearance price. They are unsuitable for exercise because the fabric has zero stretch and does not breathe. If you sweat even the tiniest bit, they become a walking sauna. If that wasn't bad enough, the pockets are cut in a way that would make most women look hippy. Absolutely terrible."
+13203,1,A Mixed bag of audio recordings.,"This review is on the sound quality of ""Sounds of Summer: Very Best of The Beach Boys"" . The music speaks for itself. I found playback on my computer (tried multiple drives) was terrible on tracks 2,3,5,7,10,11,12,21,22,26,27,28, and 30. I played them on my car stereo and home DVD player and they sounded much better. This is still a Major disappointment. The rest of the CD was fine on what ever I played them on. Cannot listen to the troubled tracks on my mp3 player. I agree with another reviewer who said ""Endless Summer"" is a much better collection of Beach Boys music(sounding). My opinion is, if its for the car or home CD player only, go ahead and buy it. If your gonna go digital with it..run away fast, it shouldn't be able to catch you."
+13204,2,Convenient,"I purchased this a week ago and since that time it has not left my side. I put all of my personal and work information on here and it's seamless. This device has everything I need, and it also has a nice remote control gadget that I use to control my DVD, VCR, TV and TiVo. Overall this this has been incredibly useful for me, I am glad I purchased this."
+13205,2,Good book. Great Setting.,This is a very enjoyable novel with an unexpected twist. It also provides a nice and inexpensive trip to California. I liked it enough to read the other three and am looking forward to more Sunny McCoskey mysteries.
+13206,2,Very thought provoking.,The diversity of essays allows one to consider several ineresting means of traveling a spiritual journey.
+13207,1,So so book,"Purchased for my hubby who is restoring a '55 ford truck, he wasn't too thrilled with the lack of info. in it. Unless you just want to buy it to say you have it, thats fine, but for a help in restoring of caring for a auto, its not worth it."
+13208,2,Interesting...:),"This next installment to the teen horror series, Cirque du Freak. In this book, Darren is suspicious that Mr. Crepsley might be the cause of several murders in town that are seemingly the cause of a vampire. To make matters worse, Crepsley refuses to talk to Darren about this, and is gone more and more lately. Finally Darren and Evra decide to take matters into their own hands: to follow Mr. Crepsley, and even stop him, if that's what it takes...Readers will enjoy the addition of a new antagonist, the vampaneze. This is a break from classic vampire literature, and makes the book all the more interesting. Debbie adds an interesting blend of romance to this novel that was missing in the first two books. More unpredictable than the others, also, even though it is one of those books where you can't really predict because not all of the characters are introduced in the first two chapters, etc."
+13209,2,eye of the storm,Very good. It was good to know what happens in series of a good story. Kindle made that very easy.Phillip.
+13210,2,"Very interesting and readable, why is author a cynic","This is an extremely readable historical narrative. Fascinating as it is, the author's interruptions to make cynical, generalized statements in regard to the current generations of Americans were inappropriate and unnecessary. I read the book to find out what happened then. I took offense to his comments about the descendants of these New Englanders and the current generation of Americans. Does the author include himself in these remarks? He is an historian first rate but he is not an editorialist on current America."
+13211,1,Puts the B in Boring,And the B in Banal. The only good thing about Darkness was Anna Paquin. Nuff said. Wait til DVD for this one.
+13212,1,doesn't really do anything,"My problem may be in that I didn't understand the difference between a vaporizer and a humidifier, but... while I realize the mist is supposed to be invisible, I can hold my hand in front of it for a full minute and my hand will still feel bone-dry. The water level does go down, but very, very slowly--I've used it now for about two weeks and I have only added water three times (there is still plenty of water in the tank). It is definitely a ""cool mist"" humidifier-- what I took to mean a room temperature-ish mist is actually frigid. Not so great for by the bed. One caveat: I have not been able to run it at night on high, there is too much noise--maybe at that setting the humidity would increase. Very disappointed."
+13213,1,Good premise for a low-budget film...that is all,"The movie is about three college students who disappeared while filming a documentary about a legendary witch. By showing only this ""documentary"", we have a clever way to employ cheap cinematography in a potentially good movie.While the actors put forth a good effort, the acting was still at a level that was distracting. Suspension of disbelief was therefore impossible. The three main characters were not distinct, having similar speech patterns and temperament. They could not evoke sympathy.A more refined plot could have also helped."
+13214,2,"Great item, not for Slim...","Great charger, will charge your old PSP 1000 batteries...Unfortunantly, the PSP Slim (PSP 2000-) batteries won't really fit due to a small tab at the bottom of the battery that keeps it in place while in the PSP. Nice to have for the older models, though."
+13215,2,vital dub: well charged,"a classic 1976 recording that hits the spot. not a lot of effects, very little vocals. rather a short recording by today's standards, and virtually anonymous without much in the way of liner notes. features some big names, however: sly, ansel collins, tommy mccook, sticky. leads mostly by horns and keyboards--this music stands on its own as instrumentals. the drawbacks of the poor packaging are more than made up for by the quality of the music and the low price."
+13216,2,oregon micro-lite,I bought a new Husqvarna chainsaw off eBay model 345. However they included the wrong bar and chain. Went to a local out door equipment store they told me there wasn't a replacement made by Oregon. Went to the Oregon website and found this replacement. All I can say is wow what a difference having the bar and chain makes. The chain saw cuts trees like a hot knife cuts through butter.
+13217,2,cheap but good,this thing gets the job done. it was exacty what i was looking for at the right price. the box it comes in is hilarious because it has a photo of a full wine of glass on it...ha. bought one for a friend. i'm sure there's way nicer ones out there but this is great for me.
+13218,2,Great!,Great service. Especially when I had an issue with a disc. It was quickly resolved. Love Amazon and will use over and over again!
+13219,2,Definitely one for the ages,"Long after trance, techno, and other forms of electronica have gone thier merry ways, I'll be thanking God that there are still CDs like this out there. A seductive blend of Urban and Latin elements, mainly Hip-Hop and Salsa with healthy doses of Fusion, Soul and Cuban thrown in. This CD is definitely at its strongest when the guy with the vocals, the mean pseudo-rapper, shuts up with his socio-political rant, and lets the music flow on its own."
+13220,2,"Mark loves Celtic folk, and again plays great guitar","I have this CD ever since it was issued years ago. All songs were beautifully written, with great guitar lines (Mark's unique asset) and good lyrics. MK had revealed, in some interview, his personal likes on Celtic folk and country. He filled lots of them in this album, adding warmth & enthusiasm to it. All songs are worth listening. 'Are we in trouble now' writes the feelings of a mature love--good moody arrangement. 'Golden heart' & 'Darling pretty' are hits that require no further comment. This CD has been a favourite for my HI-FI and portable MD for the past few years. And still I cannot get enough of MH's music. I heard that his new album will be issued in the first half of next year. I am expecting it. By the way, do you have a ranking of 6 stars?"
+13221,2,not just for the over 3 crowd,"Santa bought this for my then 11 month old for his first Christmas. He and his little friends just love playing in the tents and tunnells. (The cats do too.) I don't think you need to wait for age 3 as recommended. I do wish it were a bit sturdier as a couple of the ties have torn already. I highly recommend this product, especially over the winter when it is wet and dreary here--it sits in our living room for oodles of fun."
+13222,1,MIB III,"Once again I received a movie from Amazon with the 100% USELESS ultraviolet download. Hopefully one of these days, I will get sick enough of getting this garbage and just stop buying movies."
+13223,1,nice book but boring through the half way point,"This book started off really nice, but halfway through you would be waiting for something exciting to happen or you could tell what would happen. The ending was soooooo corny and lame. i read the first two books in the series, but this book really puts to shame this series. talk about a way to make a good book terrible! Please take my advice, DON'T READ THIS BOOK!"
+13224,2,The Best Fondue Pot,"I would recomend the Rachel Ray fondue pot to anyone interested in revivng a fun dining experience doing fondue! It is very stable, easy to fill the fuel burner(fuel IS easy to find at any hardware store or big box store), and a breeze to clean up. The cast iron pot holds heat evenly and well. It is a great value-I bought two!"
+13225,1,Ice cream rock,"Sides and bottom turned out like a rock. The inside was fine, but so much waste. Trying to carve away the stuff on the sides and bottom is really impossible."
+13226,2,Good Quick Reference Guide,"Schaum's guide is a good quick reference guide in the same sense a good gourmet cookbook may serve as a quick reference guide for getting a creative meal started. It is helpful in recalling key incredients and in just what portions and in what order they should be presented but as far as a guide to inspire, I must report this guide is NOT! Sadly, what is needed is a chapter entitled, ""Ideas!!! And how to put form to them.""I like the book and it is a good quick reference guide and it is well worth the money. In many ways it's format is just right and it can be helpful just don't expect it to prepare you to be the next Hemmingway!"
+13227,2,Awesome price,I paid 199 here in Amazon having free delivery.I love the bike and is a pretty good deal with a front break disk.If you have any questions you can reach me at jcmuro@hotmail.com
+13228,2,Good for beginners,"I loved this videos for the first six weeks after I purchased it. I saw a very visible change in fat deposition, muscle contours, and definition. Unfortunately, after about 6 weeks the video became too easy. The video is still really great for a quick workout if I don't have time to do one of my other videos, but I don't rely on it for a complete workout."
+13229,2,Feel the Fear and Do It Anyway,What a great book full of insight material. The best thing is to buy this book with the intent of constantly reviewing and usingthe material contained within its pages. Now I know why a lot of fears persist. Not your usual motivational hyperbole. Thank youSusan Jeffers
+13230,1,No upload?!,How can a digital product these days have no facility for syncing up with a computer?What if you want to email sound files for transcription?What if you want to back up?This is useless!
+13231,2,Walking With Dinosaurs,"Excellent documentary on how dinosaurs may have actually lived and evolved throughout their respective time periods. Computer graphics mate seemlessly with actual environmental vistas to create a highly believable documentary type film. Especially liked the part when the T-Rex sprays saliva on the camera lense, giving a first person camera view perspective. Not only are the lifestyles and behavior of the dinosaurs depicted in a believable manner, but the theories behind the behavior is also explaned and is easily understood by adults and children alike. Your kids (or the kid in you) will enjoy this documentary."
+13232,1,Such a waste,"I just loved the cat-and-mouse game played in the first season. The aliens thought their revival had gone undetected and despite the lost of much of their burning-ray technology, their need to take over human hosts, and their limited numbers hid out in a radioactive cave in the desert they felt confident. The humans, on the other hand, were largely clueless of the enemy they faced. Their single advantage was that the aliens didn't know that they knew. The motley crew of of defenders combined in such a way to cover each other deficiencies and enhance their talents. The alien enemy took over various humans in sets of threes from college students to fashion executives, providing a strange commentary of contempary society. Each episode brought out new revelations about the alien enemy.They threw that all away with the second season, going for glitz and battles. Such a waste."
+13233,1,Unimpressive finish.,"For $94 you would have thought that this product was finished properly - no. The pull line for detach has four balls on it, however was not knotted. The balls slide off. Easily fixed with a knot, but what sort of product quality is this?The product looks otherwise solid, however I might jump overboard to test it first - just to make sure that the other components were tied together.Not impressed."
+13234,2,My favorite book for over 10 years!!,First read this book when I was a teenager and it was my favorite book back then. I picked it up 2 days ago just to remember what I liked so much and I not once put it down (difficult with 3 kids under 3 but I managed). Still my all time favorite book (and I read a lot) and I'm 28. A must read!!!! Enjoy every minute of her revenge :) I wish they would make a movie!!
+13235,1,Hooper is not a reliable source for Lewis material.,"Serious Lewis scholars have known for years that significant questions exist about the veracity of Walter Hooper with respect to his relationship with the famous Christian writer. Kathryn Lindskoog, among others has written extensively on this subject.With this in mind, works by or about Lewis, which are written by, edited by or annotated by Hooper must be considered of questionable validity and value."
+13236,1,Makes Hair Weak and Brown,"I am tired of trying organic shampoos and conditioners. My conventional shampoo and conditioners were very good but I wanted to try organic ones.I have tried many brands from whole food store. Along with this I had bought ""Aubrey Organics - Camomile Luxurious Herbal Shampoo"".My hair started falling A LOT from the very first day, during shower and whenever I combed, also otherwise.My hair then started becoming brown.Not understanding which one might be the cause , shampoo or conditioner, I tried the shampoo alone with another organic conditioner I had been using (which made my hair very rough). I also tried just the conditioner with my regular shampoo.But the things were not getting better.I gave up, came back to my conventional Dove shampoo and conditioner. Its been just 3 washes. My hair is coming back to normal.I am not sure if its just my hair. May be it did not suit my hair. But just wanted to share my opinion."
+13237,2,Great Story,Set in the 1940's maybe 50's. Tell's of how one family became Jesus with skin on to a family in need.
+13238,1,Where's the story???,"The 11th book in the Anita Blake Vampire series seems like Laurell Hamilton is running out of ideas. The stories are feeling more and more like a daytime soap opera. She has to understand that a soap opera is on every day, but we only get a new Anita Blake book every year! It should be important and mean something - make it count. Anita's character seems to go along with the flow of everything happening around her, instead of making decisions for herself. Yeah, I enjoy the sex as much as anyone else, but not at the expense of a compelling story. I also think the author desperately needs an editor with the courage to stand up to her. What Ms. Hamilton has written in 500+ pages, could have easily been done in 200 or so. Note to Laurell - keep the action moving and tell an interesting story! Don't worry about quantity, worry about quality."
+13239,2,BO Diddley CD,"It had been many years since I had heard BO Diddley and thought I would bring back a few memories. I am not sure what history he had with what record labels. This CD seem to have his real early recordings so I assume he later switched labels. There were some recordings that seemed to be missing and maybe they were later in his career. Overall if you wanted his early recordings I guess this is the one to buy. If you wanted recordings later in his career you may want to look further. This was definitely ""vintage"" Bo Diddley. He was one of a kind and was proud of it as he well should have been. Great misician."
+13240,2,"Welcome back, Frank!","Welcome Back, Frankie, LOVE to hear your voice again! Finally read Angela's Ashes after it sat on the shelf a long time. What a mistake! When I finished that, I immediately ordered this. Lovely to be reading what Frank has to say again..."
+13241,1,There are better baby stain removers out there.,"This was really disappointing. It just did not remove stains from my infant's clothing. I found the entire line of Caldrea baby detergent to be over-hyped and over-priced. I wouldn't recommend this to anyone. The smell became really annoying over time, too."
+13242,2,"fun, happy and clever.......music you can relax too","looper have made an album that is fun to listen to, easy to enjoy, and able to make you think too. it`s not totally original or particularly moving, but instead of messing you up, it calms you down/"
+13243,2,Use this all the time!,This book makes the Zone Diet so simple and easy to follow. It gives great recipes and ideas as well as a standard list of Zone-approved foods which is very helpful!
+13244,1,Disappointing,"This toy is good in theory. However, it's quite disappointing when you try to use it. The blocks have to be in the holder just right to get the sounds to work. Then, when you do get them in the right place with a match, you can't really hear the sounds. My kids didn't play with this toy much at all. I recently threw it in the trash - that's how disappointing I found the toy to be. I would not recommend it."
+13245,1,Thank God I rented it first.................,"What a disappointment! Being a huge fan of the Gauntlet series (also by Midway) and fan of the King Arthur stories, I was stoked to play this game. Something told me to rent it before buying and I am so happy I did. The play is elementary - pure and simple - no fun. The graphics are okay but the characters you are using are so tiny you can hardly make them out (and I play on a 32"" TV)..."
+13246,1,Nyeh...,"I watched this one when I was a kid because I loved ""How the Grinch Stole Christmas,"" as everyone does. Unfortunately, I found this one to be a bit scary and mostly unpleasant. A kid goes into the Grinch's wagon of horrors to face a variety of floating grotesques, as taunting music plays in the background. In the end he gets out. This film isn't really necessary; there's not enough Grinch, and too much weirdness."
+13247,2,"Set is Great, Return is Not","This cookware set is very good. It is easy to clean, easy to cook with. Don't recommend putting it in the dishwasher. (Mom always told me to hand wash pots and pans and I griped about it for years ... but hers have endured at least 45!) Have had no problems with it. However, when we received the set, the 6-quart stock pot was warped and the lid wouldn't fit. You can't just return one thing - you have to return the entire thing through Amazon. Didn't find that out until after the shipping label had been printed and it was packed up and ready to go. By the time I received a response from Amazon telling me everything had to be returned, everything else had been washed and put away. Just keep that in mind!"
+13248,1,LAME doesn't cover it!,"I'm not really a fan of ""over the top"" gore or ""blood squirting everywhere everyone's gonna die whether they want to or not"" kinds of ""horror"" films. I can't even remember if I was actually even startled... much less ""frightened""... yawn................. Alexis Texas is kind of cute but not enough to watch the movie again!"
+13249,1,The book is atrocious,"I actually used this book while travelling overseas. Pelton has exaggerated many things beyond interpretation. When he can't find something wrong with a place, he simply fabricates a story based on urban legend and half truths which anyone can pick up back home. I think he needs to apologise to the people of the countries he has condemned."
+13250,1,Silent Movie?,"I purchased this DVD to share with my students during Women's History Month. The only description available was ""Biography depicting Betsy Ross and her life."" It did not indicate that it is a silent movie. The captioning was even too large to be seen fully on the television screen. Since I had to open the DVD and view it to determine that it was not appropriate for my students I am unable to return it for a full refund."
+13251,1,Poor fit and uncomfortable - save your money!,"First of all, the size chart is way off. I ordered size 9(men's)/10(women's) for my husband, who wears size 9, but he could not even put them on. I tried the slippers myself (I wear women's size 9) and, even though there was still some space for probably half a size length-wise, they were way too narrow even for me.Both upper and sole material is very tough, unflexible and as ""comfy"" as cardboard. I could not walk in these slippers, only drag or slide my feet. Inside wasn't as soft as in my LL Bean sheepskin slippers.On top of that I had to pay to return this item to Amazon (there is no ""does not fit"" return reason)."
+13252,2,must read,"This is a must read for anyone into true crime. This man was a genius at his ""trade"". I read this shortly after it came out and remember it to this day. It is definitely right up there with In Cold Blood and Helter Skelter."
+13253,1,wtf,"I saw a liberal eat a Christian baby once. True story.Honestly, I'm not so bothered about the whole 'Liberals Vs Conservatives' thing as I am by the idea of forcing political beliefs on children, especially given the fact that most kids are incabable of understanding the underlying complexities of such things.It reminds me of the Nazi's anti-Semitic childrens' stories.

It is horrible, the songs are simply not good enough. It becomes clear why Marty Friedman left the boat."
+13255,1,New version of lavilin sucks,"I've been using lavilin for many years. But this new version is nowhere NEAR as effective as the old version in the black round box.My bet it the major deodorant companies have bought the Lavilin company, or have paid them off in some way to make this VASTLY INFERIOR product.z"
+13256,1,Review-Black Dawn,"Page 1 gets you excited! It sounds as if it's going to be one heck of a book. Character building is well done.....and overdone. Basically, the characters are built and the good guys die one by one...and it leaves you wondering, why? If this is a book about good vs. evil, I don't think the good guys won and I'm not really sure who the bad guy was! All in all, I was left very confused at the end of the book and wondering why this book that showed such promise fell flat on its face."
+13257,2,JTHM,"Have been staring at this product for some time since a friend let me read it. Now that I bought it, I get to share all the insane humor with my friends."
+13258,2,Gabriel,"I had no idea this movie had come out, but when I heard about it, I saw the trailer and knew it was a dvd I needed to get. Great action and a great story. Highly recommended."
+13259,1,Method to Madness?,"Maybe that should've been the book's title. If you are insane enough to work at school from dawn to dusk, giving up your recess and lunch, then this book could be your guide. As for the rest of us normal teachers, the book is not very useful. This book portrays the life of a dysfunctional man, who teaches mostly gifted students, some of whom go to top colleges. Where are the statistics on those who didn't make it to the top? Where are the anecdotes about how to deal with every day classroom management issues?"
+13260,2,Another wonderful offering from Judith Lasater,"For the most part, I think this book offers some great, clear advice. I tend to feel that Judith is a bit overly cautious. Most women I know have told me they feel much better after doing an asana practice around their period while Judith would have you skipping many of the most basic postures!Aside from that, I think this book makes a great addition for those seeking to look a bit more deeply into the practice of yogasana, both as students and as teachers."

+13262,1,More drivel,"I am very familar with the work of Ms. Davis and her counter part, Ms. Bass. Collectively they have done significant damage to the field of trauma treatment with their ""checklists"" of symptoms of sexual abuse and statements such as ""if you think you've been abused, you probably have been."" Together they layed the groundwork for the ""False Memory Foundation"" with their irresponsible and ill conceived formulations."

+13264,2,Compact if a bit on the sparse side,I guess I can't complain given the compact size of this chart but I rather quickly outgrew it. Very good for learning the general constellations and locating all the major landmarks in the sky.
+13265,1,Kino's Blu-ray Release Contains Only The German Version,"Kino is releasing the blu-ray edition of this landmark film including only the German version on the disk. Notice that the upcoming British and German blu-ray releases do bring the two versions of the film, German and English. Shame on Kino!"
+13266,2,Useful,"Very nice piece of headdress, not so soft, not fancy, but it works in many forms, simple as many traditional tools but resistent and it has some style.This is made in Pakistan and the price is under its real value."
+13267,2,But where is Volume 2?,"In Europe, three is a volume 2 to this collection with hits like ""A Golden Handshake for Every Daughter"", ""Some People I know To Lead Fansastic Lives"" and the classic ""The Gates of Door to Door"" (this was the theme song to the VH1 show ""Sunday Brunch"" back in the 80s).But the 1st disc is awesome. One of the few ""best of"" collections that actually is the best of their work."
+13268,1,Joker has no idea,"The reviewer below me with the title of joker is a total moron. Just because you don't enjoy rap music has no right for you to write a review and condemn everyone that listens to it. This review for this cd is for people that have boughten the cd and would like to inform people on how they liked it. Not for people like you to tell them how dumb they are for listening to a genre of music. The bands that are ""struggling"" are struggling because they don't make good music. If they made good music then people would buy their cds and therefore they would be struggling no more. So to you I say go review your preshish pink floyd cd and leave this one alone since you probably have never listened to it.P.S- I really do not like this cd."
+13269,2,Going Places Las Vegas,"This edition of Going Places takes you to Las Vegas and gives the visit from the perspective of several East Coast visitors. From 1997 some of the info is dated as things continue to grow and change BUT it does well capturing the excitemnt & glitz of Vegas. It also brings in some of the local flavor that only locals know about as there is much more to Las Vegas than Casinos. As a city Las Vegas is unlike any other in the world, even though gambling (gaming) has opened up in so many places, Las Vegas remains the quintesential vacation destination for those seeking Action. This show is a fun romp thru the city of lights- Las Vegas!"
+13270,2,Love it!,"Love this changing table/dresser! The drawers are the perfect size and the changing table fits most standard changing pads (it has it's own, but I would personally get one of the contoured ones to go on top). My husband put it together by himself and said it was easy. Looks great with the matching crib!"
+13271,2,Joe Bataan - Great Latino soul,"I just love Joe Bataan's music. I am from South Africa and finding his albums are never easy. Always have to order from overseas, not ideal for such good music. I especially love his Mestizo medley."
+13272,1,The Title Simply Lies,"This book is actually a collection of cheap, overworked ""fact-files"" put together with two cheesy, short stories. I would advise going to the bookestore, taking a minute to read the stories, then re-shelving the book. This is not a guide, or an informative or entertaining read."

+13274,1,Did Nothing For Me,"I have been told Niteworks is a super effective natural stimulant that is better and healthier than caffeine or drugs and general doping. I have no doubt that it's healthier. However, the product did nothing for me. I felt exactly the same after as I did before, and I used it for several days. It is very possible that the product combines with an individual's chemistry to create results, and that my chemistry just wasn't optimum. I am giving Herbalife the benefit of the doubt here. It is also possible that this a can of super expensive placebo powder."
+13275,2,jumpstarter,Fantastic product! Good value. We can say nothing negative about it. We carry it with us on trips. Family members borrow it. Wow - what more can be said.
+13276,2,brill and well worth buying,"this single is very jumpy and is a brilliant song to start a pop career.The vocals are exellent, Brett especially makes the band more interesting.I have bought the c.d so as well as listening to him i can see him as well."
+13277,1,simple and unintersting,"My opinion about ""The Eagle's Shadow by mark Hertsgaard is unusual in that I don't disagree with his criticism of the United States; but I find this book to be poorly written and not very informative. It's unusual to agree with what a writer is saying but at the same time not appreciate how they are saying it.As many other reviews have noted, he does not tell us much about what other countries think of the U.S. He just has a few stories and than launches into his criticisms. His writing might have impressed me if I was still still a high school student, but not as an interested adult. There is not one original idea in this book. And the writing is so simple and shallow I couldn't wait to get it done."
+13278,1,Horrible - my son didn't even get to wear them once!,"I ordered these on Amazon because I found out at the last minute that my son needed black pants for his play as his part changed to that of the penguin, lol! I didn't have time to run out to target to buy a pair, which is where I normally get all his jeans.The jeans arrived and I threw them in the washing machine on the light agitation/cold water setting so that my son could wear them on the following day for the play.The button fell off in the wash! I know that 5 year old boys can be hard on jeans, so I don't set the bar too high for endurance, but falling apart before he has even worn them is a new low!Save your time and money!"
+13279,2,Making reading fun again!,"Here is another example of how Mental_floss creators have succeeded in making learning, reading, and sharing fun all over again! Take a read of this book and you'll have enough condensed knowledge to share at almost any appropriate or inappropriate moment. ;)"
+13280,2,Great book,I really liked this book. It is thought provoking and a great book for a book club to read. Generates lots of discussion!
+13281,1,Uninteresting,"This book is boring. It's draw, 30 prospects for each team, is very effective but the analysis is weak and usually breaks down to: ""This guy throws hard"" or ""This guy is a great athlete."" If you are really interested in minor league scouting reports I suggest John Sickels book published by Stats Inc. it has deeper, much more interesting analysis and a friendly writing style. Major dissapointment, no way I'm getting next year's book."
+13282,1,Fans can never be objective...,We've heard these songs a million times b 4...nice...but forgettable.
+13283,1,Not very educational,"I bought this software after reading the reviews. Yes, this game is fun and my sons love to play it. But, that is all it is. Mostly they are just games. We have many other software titles where the children are always learning when they are playing. My children want to play this game. However, I want my children to use the computer as a learning tool, not a gameboy."
+13284,2,awsome new sound,"i never heard of this band until very recently. It was playing on the radio and when the song came on i called the radio station, and they gave me the cd. i think it is an awsome new sound of music. its a good break from the happy go lucky music like smashmouth and sum 41. its more like a mixture of POD andkitty."
+13285,1,Absolutely Ridiculous!,"This is the most ridiculous vampire movie of all time. I found myself laughing at the stupidity of the whole thing. Shame on James Woods for being part of such a third rate film (and THAT'S a compliment!). Definitely not worth the $5 I paid to rent it on Amazon Unbox. I highly UN-recommend this video. If you pay for the DVD, you'll be frightfully sorry."
+13286,2,Simply Amazing,"I can't believe this album is almost 5 years old. I still listen to it all the time. If there is better music out there than this, please let me know."
+13287,2,*INFECTIOUS BEATS & UPLIFTING SOCIAL IDEAS*,VERY COOL...Common takes you on a musically delightful ride through some jazzy hip hop streets in the ghetto...with political ideas & social consciousness. AND we cannot forget KANYE. He blessed this album!! A MUST HAVE! NO B.S.
+13288,2,A great Matlab book,"This book was a requirement for my pre-engineering class at Ohio State. Since I am an adult learner with an extensive learning background, I can really appreciate the way the book is laid out. Rather than relying heavily on theory, the book uses real-world engineering examples that spans disciplines for a well-rounded set of example problems. I would only ding the book a half-star because of typographical errors in some of the problems."
+13289,1,Gay Is As Gay Does,"Who does this J. L. King think he's fooling? If you are a man having sexual relations with another man, you are gay. Personality and style have nothing to do with it. Anyway, this book was weak. King just kept repeating himself throughout the entire book, especially in the chapter 9 where it was the most obvious. Then he went on about all the ""fine brothers"" he was with. Shoot, maybe if I were a man, it would be easier for me to attract a man. This book didn't tell me anything that I already didn't know and I'm glad that I didn't spend any money on it. Read this book only if you are totally without a clue."
+13290,1,"""Once you put it down, you can't pick it up."" M. Twain","A strange, solipsistic tale of a very sickly black man visiting Africa. Nothing momentous or sufficiently memorable occurs during the course of this story. It is painful, at best, to read"
+13291,2,ALPINESTARS JACKET RAIN RJ-5,"Excellent, just follow the size chart from their web page , and it will fit perfectly..."
+13292,1,Do Not Buy This Book For Enjoyment,"If I could possibly rate this book with negative stars - I would have. The book could and should have only 10 pages in it - both authors discuss the points they are trying to make to a very, very slow death. Do not buy this book unless you need it for a college course."
+13293,1,What were they thinking?,I was looking forward to more Deep Space 9 but this is not Deep Space 9. The TV characters are way off from how they were on the show and the new characters are stuck in badly and are just lame.I gave it two stars instead of one because the writing is pretty good but the author should go do something else and not spend his time doing Deep Space 9 wrong.
+13294,2,Tales from the Cryptkeeper--good animated fun!,"This tape features two episodes of the animated Tales from the Cryptkeeper series. The first, ""Fare Tonight,"" deals with two girls who are on a mission to destroy a town vampire using thier home-made vampire detector, not realizing it may be someone they know. . .The second episode, ""Cave Man,"" is about a boy who becomes upset with his father for missing his birthday. As a prank, he defrosts his father's latest science expirment, a caveman, which ends up coming back to life!"
+13295,2,Compaq CRT Monitor,"I am glad I purchased this Compaq CRT monitor. CRT monitors are giving way to LCD/LED monitors, which is good for most people but not for everyone. I am one of those in whom LCD/LED monitors cause insomnia. In fact, I had to give up my otherwise fine Samsung LED television a year ago because of severe insomnia. So I was delighted to snap up this CRT monitor now while it is still available. I should not have any need to purchase a new monitor for years to come. I am hopeful that by that time the manufacturers will have worked out the problems in LCD/LED monitors or perhaps switched to a newer technology. As CRT monitors go, this Compaq is pretty good. Not as much of a space hog as some others, and excellent picture quality."
+13296,1,Weak Character Development and Plot,"Goodnight Moon? Ha! What a joke. Margaret Wise doesn't seem too wise to me, writing foolish books about bears in chairs and bowls of mush. What is mush? What is that? It looks utterly disgusting, like something they would feed you at a nursing home.I also don't want my child (who is a beautiful baby boy) saying goodnight to his food. That's just plain weird. Even though I never intend to feed him the ""mush"" the mother forces down her child's throat in this gut-wrenching novel, I don't want kids to make fun of him on the playground when he waves goodbye to his PB&J; as he throws it out.If you want messed up kids, read them this book. It'll mess with their heads. Goodnight bowl of mush? Are you serious? What is mush? Don't even get me started."
+13297,2,Some Lessons Never Grow Old,This is a great book about survival. In this instance it is a nuclear war and what many had to do to survive. The premise of the book could easily be changed to a natural disaster or the release of some other type of weapon of mass destruction. The true greatness of this tale remains in its timelessness and the still relevant survival lessons taught.
+13298,2,Probably the single best episode of the series.,"A two parter. In part one. Sam has leapt into himself as a sixteen year old boy just before his brother is shipped off to Vietnam Where he will be killed). The scene where he is singing ""Imagine"" to his sister is heartbreaking. Excellent acting on her part.Part 2 has Sam leaping into a soldier who is part of his brothers squad, the day before he is killed! The suprise ending, a trade-off, if you will, almost left me in tears. (Al pointing to his head and saying ""I was alway free. In here.)If you choose to buy only one tape from this series, this is the one to get."
+13299,2,Strong writing from a reporting perspective,"Feinstein writes well for the reader because he comes from a journalist perspective. There are a lot of direct quotes, and the writing flows well. Wording doesn't drag on, and everything is to the point. If you enjoy college basketball, it's a hell of a great story about schools and a conference that most people know little about. I didn't attend any of the schools, know of only one of the coaches, and know nothing about the league, but I love basketball. And I liked the book. My only complaint is that it could have been a bit shorter. 400 pages is a lot to get through."
+13300,2,great but that last page............,"I am a huge DeMille fan and waited with baited breath for this book to arrive. I wasn't disappointed through 647 pages.......it's only the last page that through me for a loop. That's it? I feel that a book this smart, this witty, with such interesting, intriguing characters and fast paced, well researched plot should have come to a far better conclusion than it did. It was a great read but I felt cheated."
+13301,2,Love this series,This was a very unique series. Very entertaining. I wish more TV shows like this one were produced today. Worth the money.
+13302,2,Still Has a Few Gems,"Even though this book was published in recent years, some of the information is outdated, which a few readers have criticised it for (just read the other reviews on Amazon!).There are just a handful of pictures (in black and white) in the middle of the book, showing babies and toddlers in a Montessori-style home environment.This book may be more challenging for readers who are less familiar with Montessori education, however it is one of the only ones available for the age group of birth to three.The information is extensive, and some of it dense; and at 241 pages, will take longer to read.If you can get through the 241 pages, and some of the outdate information, there are many gems to be had!And since there are no other books, yet, that cover exclusively the birth to three ages, as a Montessori teacher, I still recommend reading it."
+13303,1,dull dull dull,"This is the 2nd or 3rd book I have read by this author and I have to say I will not try her again. I have to agree with the 1 review that I thought it was boring, not much going on til the very end and I had to push myself to read to the end hoping that it was going to get better. It did not. I saw all the glowing reviews and I thought I would try it. Not much happened way into the story. It could have been so much better using the plot where the hero tries to find out more about the author of the book society is conflicted about. That would have made it a little more exciting! Instead both the hero and the heroine go round and round about their feelings and the story doesn't go anywhere. Pretty blah."
+13304,1,Not aftershave,"The item I received was cologne, NOT aftershave. Luckily I needed more cologne. Other than that, I have no complaints."
+13305,2,Dead Water,"We enjoy all of Victoria Houston's books. I read a few chapters to my husband most every evening. They are easy to follow, fun to guess what's going to happen next."
+13306,2,I love this book!,I have long hair and this book is just what I needed to learn new styles. It is a great book and easy to follow the instructions to learn the styles. The book arrived in a timely manner at a good price. The seller included a note on nice paper. I would recommend this seller and the book.
+13307,2,Bravo for Sally!,"I read this book a few years ago and can't forget how much I adored it! It doesn't sound like a real exciting book, but I couldn't put it down! I was just like Sally and I could really communicate with her character. I used to daydream exactly like she did and in fact I still do. I will continue to cherish this book. I recommend it to so many people!"
+13308,1,Scary for my baby,"Every time I bring this toy out, my daughter starts to cry. She doesn't like the music or the fact that it moves! The only time she gave it the briefest smile was when it was in its box. Ugh. Wishing I had saved my money."
+13309,2,LOVE this pan,"Wow...if you want to make some great corn bread, buy this pay. After making my Jiffy Bread corn mix with a few secret ingredents, I put it into this wedge pan and bake. Bake to a golden brown, take out of the oven and let the pan cool down with the corn bread still in it. As the bread cools it pulls away from the sides....yummy. Highly recommend this wedge pan."
+13310,2,Woderful and memorable.,"I watched this series when I was ten years old. I was astounded by the cinematography. It might have not been as advanced as today's movies but, it was worth the shot. You certainly will need patience to watch the movie but if you are a lover of the series, you can let your mind roam free. During turbulent times in my life in Nigeria, it provided me with a way of escape. I loved the theme song and I loved Aslan. He was stern with the girl because she needed to know the gravity of her situation."
+13311,2,Great Movie,"This is probably my favorite werewolf movie ever! The whole story is great, and I loved the ending. Its a great movie, a must see."
+13312,1,Could be dangerous,"It only worked well for a couple weeks. Then, one day during a normal trip to work, it got really hot and started smoking while a GPS and cell phone charger were plugged in at the same time. I don't know if it was because the car couldn't handle it a glitch in the splitter itself, but it was quickly taken out and never used again."
+13313,1,good while it lasts,though one pixel did die on my set about a year ago the picture quality is amazing...while it lasts. i just had it turn off on me after almost two years and now i find that it won't turn back on unless i spend 300 dollars to repair it.
+13314,2,A good product,"I bought this for grocery runs in my neighborhood. It can hold about 2 full grocery bags. The spring-loaded attachment is a nice feature for quick release of the basket when I get home, but we'll see how long it holds up. The handle is a pain to deal with -- always coming out of its socket and whatnot. I fashioned my own bungee-type covering so items don't fly out going over bumps. (I recommend finding some sort of cover to go with this basket if you live in a bumpy area) But all in all it fit perfectly with a bike mount I purchased at Sports Authority, and that's all that mattered at the moment was an easily mountable basket that could do the job."
+13315,1,I did not find this helpful in the least.,"It came with 216 ""hot words,"" of which I knew 74 to begin with, and knew them all within a few weeks. I also did a lot of other words in another SAT book, and another book called Word Power. I was getting, in the ""10 Real SATs,"" a 1430 (730 english, 700 math). I then took the real SATs in March, and got only a 1270 (650 verbal, 620 math). Very disappointing, and an embarrasing score. I am still wondering if I didn't do something wrong.."
+13316,1,Worst antenna I ever had...,I bought this antenna base on all the good reviews I've read. Big mistake! I couldn't get any clear channels from this thing. My unpowered rabbit ear out-performed it by a mile. And the size! it has the wing span of an albatross. Total waste of money.
+13317,1,Not for all cribs,"We got this mobile as a shower gift. After I put it together ours too did not work. THe birds would not rotate. I took apart the entire spinning mechanism, and finally got the birds to move. Then, when we went to install it on the crib found out that the mobile attachment only works on cribs with small rails, or more traditional cribs. We have a fixed rail crib, with thick sides and spindles and there is no way to afix the mobile! A big pain after all the mechanism problems!"
+13318,2,Read 'A Good Man is Hard to Find' to understand this movie,"This movie is a grisly fairy-tale, Little Red Riding Hood with all the gory details of the wolf's attacks and his death by axe. The child is the key to the story. The violence is so exaggerated as to be a horrible parody. The line the male killer makes (who has no name by the way) at the end about the little girl is everything. A very dark comic parable. Don't take its over-the-top violence seriously."
+13319,1,"Very slow, but through provoking....","A German language movie with English subtitles, it's very slow, and I found myself fast forwarding thru much of it. It does show a very disturbing picture of life in the GDR just before the wall came down with Artists being monitored by the Stazi."
+13320,1,One of the Worst books I read this year,Where to begin? I have horrible visions of Pearl actually growing up to be Steve Martin's character in the jerk. Talk about a walking Target. There were way too many characters that had nothing to do with the story. And even the ones that did could have been left out. There were way too many metaphors saturating the pages that I often forgot what the author was trying to say. Character's syntax doesn't match and there seemed to be an unneccessary hate campaign toward Jackson. I doubt I will ever read anything else from this author and I wish I could get a refund.
+13321,1,TOO SHORT,"Being that there is only one episode on the DVD, my 4 yr old son thought it was too short. They should combine both episodes on one DVD to make it worth the price."
+13322,1,Hazy Subshine,"I rated MST two stars because the prose reminds me of Kung Fu's Shaolin Monk, Kwai Chang Caine. Unlike John Murphy, Alexander Elder and Steve Nison, Mr. Farley fails to clearly communicate his ideas and the writing is verbose. I read the entire book, learned a few new things but it was like panning for gold. After reading the book, I then enrolled in his online course hoping to make more sense of his system. The experience was worse. His charts were erroneous and in audio, he contradicted himself. When I emailed him about the errors, he grew impatient and conveyed an imperious attitude. Like a child, he complained that I was nitpicking and then terminated my membership although he gave me a full refund."
+13323,2,Small but good,"I just received this yesterday, and have already ordered another to put in my travel bag. This small lightweight unit works just as well as larger, heavier models, but is quieter and less expensive too. You won't be disappointed in this one."
+13324,2,Sting - Brand New Day Tour,"I was very excited when I heard Sting was coming to dvd, as I am a huge fan of Sting and also the legend players he works with. Overall the disc is great, apart from an annoying audio problem when watching it from the 5.1 source through a non 5.1 system( it seems fine when using stereo, but default setting is 5.1) I don't know if it is o.k through a 5.1 system cause I don't have one, but from what I've heard it is o.k. Manu Katche's drumming is no where as good as Vinnie's from the album, ( I am a HUGE Vinnie fan.) but he does play some really tasetful stuff in ""englishman in new york"" and some great shuffles in other tracks. Dominic Miller(guitar) is a legend Sting makes this dvd happen ( apart from reading words from his music stand in some songs) His song writing is flawless........ If you are into Sting, you need to have it."
+13325,2,shocking but brutetly true,"this film is by no means lame.90% of the stuff shown in this movie is true.i seen this on the shelf and thought another jail movie.but it was no ordinary jail movie,with brillant acting by all, this jail movie would be one of the best ive seen.with master p and a short apperence by sticky fingers at the start just gave it even more edge.avary had a great swimming future ahead of him untill the revenge of a sour drug dealer(sticky fingers)finds avary and two close buddys behind bars for a murder they did not comit.now its down to survival of the fittest.with a savage rape happening to one of the three in the first ten minutes of being lockdown.this told me i was in for a good movie.but it turned out to be great.a must see."
+13326,1,Too theistic!,"After more than a dozen years of productive work with Blum's ""Book of Runes,"" I bought ""The Healing Runes"" and then returned it. It's full of heavy-handed language about God, which may work for some, but not for me. I much prefer the lighter touch and more open approach of the earlier book."
+13327,1,this doesn't deserve a star,"This anime is horrible. Everything about it is just irritating, the animation, the characters, the story, and everything else in the movie has me at a loss for words. Do not buy this anime, I don't care if a friend lones it to you don't waste your time on it. Completely worthless!"
+13328,1,Disappointing,"From the duo that made the visually innovative and exhilarating Delicatessen, the City of Lost Children exhibits the same ability to translate dreams to the screen, share a poetic and original vision, as shown since in Alien Resurrection and Amelie. Ultimately though, this movie is a disappointment : poor dialogues, and, mostly, a wholly predictable plot. A fairy tale it is, a visual treat no doubt, but lacking of a compelling story."
+13329,2,This is how music is supposed to be...,"McLachlan is astounding! Her voice combined with the cleverly written lyrics are emotionally charged; something that is rare with many female artists, specifically mainstream.I first heard Sarah when her song, ""I Will Remember You"", was played in a video montage of The Ellen DeGeneres Show. Captivated by her beautiful voice, I wanted to hear more. Thinking that ""I Will Remember You"" was a track on Surfacing, I purchased the album. You'd think I'd be disappointed to find out it wasn't, but I was highly satisfied with the mistake I made! I immediately fell in love with almost song (with the exception of ""I Love You"").The lyrics are dark, deep, & oddly unique, McLachlan's voice it haunting, both making Surfacing so damn good.This album is highly recommended."
+13330,2,This is a great horror game.,"If you are a fan of horror games, scary movies or especially Clive Barker novels, then you will like this game. There are cool sound effects and the graphics are good also. It can get a little gory, so if you are sqeamish about blood, this game is not for you. There are 5 quests that you have to complete, with a boss character to defeat at the end of each one (I think - I have not completed the game yet.) You begin in a mansion and there are characters to interact with and the detail and amount of rooms in this mansion are incredible. I think this is a game worth the $40, for sure. Lots of hours of gameplay to complete this one."
+13331,2,My Review,Yes I would recommand these. They are very comfortable. Feels like you don't have anything on. Thinking about buying more. Wife Loves them.
+13332,1,I'd give it 0 stars if I could,"This product is much too difficult to use. I can barely make the clamp open using two hands because the spring is SO STRONG. That makes it worthless for me. My husband agreed that they were much too strong for a woman to be able to use, yet I found nothing in the listing for this item to indicate this issue. I am returning them!"
+13333,1,Pan melted Danger,"I had a situation of the large round pan literally melting on the stove. The pan leaked a large puddle of melted metal on my stove. The metal was leaking from the seams at the bottom of the pan. I then removed the pan to the sink and in so doing the pan dropped aleast 20 pieces of melted metal on my wood floor, immediately burning and smoking. After throwing water on the floor I removed the pan from the sink to examine it and found that the pan had oxidized my stainless steel sink. This would have been a really serious situation if perhaps a child had been around the stove. Not that I am minimalizing my situation. I have sustained alot of damage to the kitchen in my Brand New kitchen. If you have these pans please beware of what they can do. I have written to Emeril's Homebase and have not heard from them."
+13334,1,Disappointing,"If you want a book to help you help you understand how to sail a laser, this isn't it!As well as being very dated (it seems all the photos were taken in the 70's) subjects as vital as tacking is explained in four bullet points, with no photos."
+13335,2,NO MO ICE,I've got one of these from somewhere as a gift. This thing works great! I live in the South so usually its not much more than a little frost but its pretty wide and certainly NOT flimsy. Its got a decent sized handle and scrapes off everything. I've got a garage now so I don't need it!!
+13336,2,cutting board,I loved this item. the only problem is the pulls will come all the way out so you have to be careful how you pick up the board. it also does not fit my sink very well but i have adjusted.
+13337,1,Not salon quality,"Most of the polishes (3/4) were not salon quality they were the cheap ""Love My Nails"" brand. Not a good buy."
+13338,2,The Firm Wave Kit,It provides good cardio workout. Some steps were done pretty quickly. It was a bit hard for me to catch up.
+13339,2,"""New"" Irving Fan","Having just read two of John Irvings books,(Cider House Rules) I am new to the phenomenon of Mr. Irving. However, I must agree with his most ardent fans, he is a wonderful storyteller. A novel that will totally submege you into the world of its characters. Even the ""weakest"" character is so well developed that you love him more for his weaknesses. Also my edition had an interview with the author at the end of the book. It was so enlightening. Read it only after you finish... I have now decided that my next two Irving books will be Garp and Prayer for Owen Meaney. Both these novels have been tranformed to the ""big Screen"". Having seen Cider House on the big screen, I saw all that was missing. I am looking forward to reading these two and rediscovering the world according to Irving."
+13340,2,jam-packed online travel planning info!,"This book was extremely informative. I was already doing online travel planning, but this book opened up so many new doors to me. My wife and I were amazed and pleased to discover through reading this book that so much of the details and the leg work of planning our honeymoon could be done online. We found out how to connect with other newlyweds and travelers through a message board that the author recommended, and got the inside scoop on everything from restaurants, nightclubs, romantic/secluded spots in our destination, as well as currency exchange info. and travel safety tips. The best thing about the book, though, was the author's offbeat sense of humor and keen eye for topnotch websites. A must read for any do-it-yourself travel planner."
+13341,2,"Great vacuum, affordable price","We had a Dyson vac which worked great ... until it broke. Getting it fixed would've cost a lot just in shipping. You see, there really are no repair shops in the States for Dyson. So, we threw our $300+ vacuum away after about a year's use. We bought the Bissell a few months ago. Having just bought a new wool rug that sheds like crazy (easily fills the dirt receptacle twice every time I vacuum). Also, we have a 2 yr old, three dogs (2 boxers, one mix breed puppy) and a cat, so we vac A LOT.The Bissell is excellent - great suction, multiple tools on-board and a nice detachable section (we don't have stairs, but if we did this would make cleaning them a breeze). You can turn off the rotating brush, which is great for tile. It's got a HEPA filter (I mentioned our animals, right?) which makes me feel like our air's maybe a bit better than it would be. Very happy overall (the bagless system is great, but lost a star as the receptacle could be a little bigger)."
+13342,1,Makes light of bullying and manic depressive disese,This film is simply awful. Anyone who has suffered through workplace bullying and a resulting manic-depressive episode knows it is never this easy - Joe declares himself cured based on one visit by the wellness supervisor. It is is so superificial as to be dangerous. I have not had an episode of depression in months but this movie almost got me there - I had to switch it off in the middle!
+13343,1,More of the same,"I like Statham. And I think it's an interesting idea of Stalone's to get all of the action stars of the last 20 years into one film. It was great to see those guys again. And Statham is always good in everything he does. Since he is playing opposite Stalone, he, Statham, lends credence to what otherwise would have looked totally tawdry. Aside from the inability of Stalone to actually kiss a girl (seen also in the original Expendables), the action is well-done. It's just that the story is barely believable.I know.....who cares? It's all about shooting hundreds of guys, blowing their head off and somehow escaping any kind of wound whatsover. It's ridiculous. But after all....it's just an ""entertainment."""
+13344,1,D-Link Wireless Problems,"I own both this router and the Netgear MR-814. The Netgear wins hands down. I am quite experienced with both hardware and software, so my problems are not an issue of ignorance on my part. The D-Link simply has inherent problems in their wireless implementation. Hardwire connections worked fine, but when a wireless device was connected the router was plagued with dropped connections. On my cable line, losing my wireless connection was a norm. In a college dorm the situation was even worse - the D-Link often failed to allow wireless at all on the faster LAN connection. To make matters worse, the Netgear clearly demonstrated a stronger signal (60% Netgear to 40% on the Dlink). I recommend the Netgear MR-814 whole heartedly."
+13345,1,Poor Quality,The bulbs preformed well while they lasted. The bulbs burned out after 6 months of use. I've had other (much cheaper) brands of bulbs last up to 4 years! PIAA does not back their warranty and the customer service is horrible. I gave up on trying to get them to back their product and bought a different brand. I would stay away from any and all PIAA products.
+13346,1,CHERRIES and stuff .........,"Hopelessly foolish tale of a Samurai 'boytoy' savored and flavored by all within reach ..... minimal acting skills with lots of Swordplay [the real stuff, not between the sheets] and many a grunt in between it all.Lord alone knows why the 18 yearold achieved THAT status - cartoonish face, chilly manner and very little skin exposure.Only if you must!!!"
+13347,1,not the greatest,"Not a bad book, but not the best either. This pocket size book is quite brief, only about 100 pages, easily readable in half a day. Has some good points and good thoughts, but not tremendous depth. It would be a good read for someone with no previous management training or skills. A good starting book for the beginner. The book does do a good job emphasizing how to treat employees with respect and understanding. But, the book relies too heavily on concepts borrowed from Dale Carnegie's book How To Win Friends and Influence People. Chapters discussing profit sharing are a little bit shakey. In the book's prologue, the author states that he ""set out to write the greatest management book in the history of the world"". Quite a claim!"
+13348,1,Useless,"My hobby is to study the markets and I have numerous books about technical analysis and swing trading. This book consists of 362 pages of useless BS. Don't waste your money. I'm going to sell my copy, at pennies on the dollar, to the used book store.Hopefully, if enought dissatisfied customers do the same thing, there will be so many used copies out there that the authors can't get any royalities out of this useless book."
+13349,2,Couldn't live without it!,"This carrier is a lifesaver - my baby won't sit in a stroller if awake, but loves the carrier. I use it daily - it's the only way I can get anything done, and is so much more convenient than a stroller at the store. We use it for hiking, and it fits well for my husband (who is 6'4"") and myself (5'4""), The only drawback is that I find it uncomfortable on my back after a while - I wish I had bought the sport version with the extra back support, I think it would have been worth the money now that I know how much I use it."
+13350,2,Unreal - seriously one of the fing best,The plain black cover gives no hint to how purely cool and hard this album really is. This fuggin album is very perfection in every way. Do not hesitate to buy one for each disk player you own.The drumming is so damn sweet and I'm completely blown away everytime I turn this on. Guitar work is completely awe inspiring. The sound of Nola is perfection in my feeble little mind.I'm going to revise my other ratings to remove a star to pay homage to this album.
+13351,1,Could Have Been Good,"The story in this book is a good one, but it is written in such a stilted and stiff way of writing that it turns out to be just plain boring. Perhaps the author should find something else to do besides writing books."
+13352,1,Please Kill Me Now,this just sounds sooooooooooo bad. the guitar riffs and and drum lines are exact replicas of blink 182 and the singing is just horrendus.please DO NOT BUY THIS ALBUM
+13353,1,A bit disappointed,"A quick review in order of importance :- The helmet is so small that it squeezes my head, and my head hurts after an hour of use- The noise cancelling is more a noise reduction- The right speaker buzzes if there's a small part that is not covered. It's not a problem if I fix it properly, but it's always a nuisance when you have to place it properly every time- The cable given is too short for my taste.Well, I still give it 2/5 because it still is a cheap noise-reduction headphones... but with lots of cons"
+13354,1,Horrible,"The most uncomfortable thing ever, would not recommend. It hurt my toe and was a bloody pain to put on."
+13355,1,Time to give retirement for this free camera,". Poor video quality if used as a webcam. If used as a Digital camera, it can take decent pictures only in sunlight long distance shots.. If you got this free when you bought a Dell computer, do yourself a favour and give retirement for this camera.. If you got this free, you can also give this camera to kids as a consolation play toy, if they are asking your costly digital camera to take pictures and you don't want to give it to them :-))For webcams, I recommend Creative Labs PD1130 WebCam NX Pro ASIN: B00009V7MUFor digital camera, I recommend Canon PowerShot S400 4MP Digital Camera w/ 3x Optical Zoom ASIN: B00008OE6II highly discourage you to buy this!"
+13356,1,Poor quality,"Poor quality for a Melissa and Doug toy. Holes for screw are too small, putting the truck together is difficult.Would not recommend."
+13357,1,Too naive to be believable,"Is Shawn supposed to be a man of the 90's? It was humorous but a slow read, I skipped the profiles on each type of woman but must admit they seem to be on target. Michael Baisden's book was more timely."
+13358,2,great gift for granddaughter,"We gave this as a gift for our granddaughter's 8th birthday - she had a ""ball"" with it! I would love to have the larger one for our camping trips."
+13359,2,A very good read!,"Alighting from an airplane, Trooper Liam Campbell stumbles on a body and runs into an old love. From spotting herring in a plane to stumbling over bodies in a small Alaskan settlement, the action increases. Loved the Alaskan background."
+13360,2,Everything they touch turns to gold (or platinum),"I still have yet to get sick of this song. Of course, I have Creed's 2 cd's but I also try to search out rare unreleased tracks. The extra stuff on here does the trick. To Whom It May Concern is a great song that for some reason didn't make it on to either of their 2 albums. What's This Life For(the acoustic version) sounds great too. I highly recommend this cd to Creed fans."
+13361,1,Amazon shipping ??? EXPECT TO WAIT A LONG TIME...,I ordered this game on Oct. 17today is Oct. 25 & now they say they will ship it by Oct 31st.
+13362,2,For the Classroom,"I got these to give my students another modality to learn their numbers and letters. I don't know how effective they are in that regard, but the kids love to use them and that makes me happy."
+13363,1,ewwwwww yuck,"If u don't like skateboarding and surfing and snowboarding do not get this game, i repeat do not get this game. I love the show but the game is awful it is sooooooooooo boaring after i tried all of the tricks i turned off my playstation and went to sleep. I wasted all my money 4 nothing,so if u don't like rocket power or sports do not get this game i REPEat DO NOT get THis game!!!!!"
+13364,2,Good book for startups,"This is another area that many tech entrepreneurs ignore until it is too late. I can't recommend this book enough.It provides both a good topical overview of a good trademark and how to register it. However there were a few chapters that I don't feel that the technically inclined will really find useful, like registering domains and how to use the US PTO's search engine."
+13365,2,"good vacuum, arrived without hose","Nice little vacuum, works well but it arrived in a big product box without the hose and the wand. Had to spend another $20 to buy a replacement as I needed it for my second home right away. Otherwise I would have waited for them to ship the parts. Clearly someone opened the box and took the parts before it shipped. Very good suction and easy to use."
+13366,2,Non Stop Energy,"I listened to this at the Virgin Megastore, and stood there for 45 minutes listening before someone told me to move along. So, I bought it. If you like Energy Trance, then get this CD, you won't be disappointed."
+13367,2,awesome show,This was an awesome show. I loved every minute of it. I can not believe that they did not renew this show. Awesome actors and just great on screen chemistry. Bring this show back
+13368,2,Great price- perfect for 3rd grade music class,"My son's 3rd grade class needed recorders for the upcoming semester's music class. We had the option to rent from the school but for the price here at Amazon I was able to purchase one. I feel better knowing that if he breaks or loses it (which is a good probablity with my 9 year old), that I can always come back to Amazon and order another one without breaking the bank. The recorder is a nice light green and could be used for either a boy or a girl. It comes with a plastic case to keep the recorder from getting lost or dirty. Overall I am very pleased...now if I had only ordered some ear plugs to go along with it- LOL!!"
+13369,1,Poor results.,I planted corn in these pellets with poor results. The seeds were labeled as having a 90% germination rate. I only acheived a germination rate of 7% roughly. I have recently planted more seeds in miracle grow potting soil and have seen much better results. Germination took less time and the germination percentage was quite near the seeds rating. As a result I don't think all that highly of the Jiffy 72 peat pellets.
+13370,2,Easy to install,"Very simple to install. Nice looking, very bright. Not sure if I am more visible but I feel more visible."
+13371,1,Poems about fat grandmas and baby poo,"There are great books about -- and for -- babies and toddlers out there, with appropriate, enriching vocabularies and great humor. This isn't one of them. Try books my Mo Willems, Shel Silverstein or Anna Dewdney if you want fun stuff for kids this age...This thing was given to us as a gift. Thank God, because man, I wouldn't buy it."
+13372,2,Very good book,"I liked this book because the cover appeals to readers, but I am familiar with Jim Cymbala and would recommend his books to anyone. I know he is a Christian and whatever he writes is truthful and would be encouraging to anyone. I had this book, and the one I bought from Amazon was a gift to a friend."
+13373,2,Trippy & Cool,"Definitely a unique take on the Alice storyline, approaching it from a more literal translation of Carrol's actual book. Some fantastic cameos type roles from great talent are scattered throughout, and visually it's pretty striking. Definitely aimed more at the younger audiences, but worth a look for adult viewers as well, and fantastic stoner fare. Worth a look!"
+13374,2,Awesome!,This product came just as it should. Brand new and still wrapped. Great Seller will use again.
+13375,2,Great solo novel from one half of an awesome team,"After Lincoln Child's very good ""Utopia"" the other half of the esteemed Preston-Child team has written another solo novel entitled ""The Codex"". After a rather drawn out last collaboration with Lincoln Child in ""Still life with crows"" this finds Douglas Preston back in excellent form with an interesting premise (don't want to spoil it more than the book review), decent characters and some typical humour that fans of the pair will appreciate. They've never written anything ""unreadable"" together and their recent solo efforts, including this one, maintain their high-standards. Thoroughly recommended!!"

+13377,1,This product simply doesn't work.,"This headset does not work. Even when it is fitted properly, the majority of the time the ""Noise Shield"" blocks the sound of my voice, along with all the background noise. I'm far less safe driving while trying to deal with this terrible headset than I would be just talking on my phone. For a product that costs as much as this one does, I expect it to work far better and with greater ease than this thing does."
+13378,1,necroshine is the only stand out track the rest is not thrash at all!,"this cd has overkill way out of it's eliment this cd dosn't thrash except the title track.this cd is more of a classic heavy metal album nothing more than good tunes maiden,priest,sabbath,dio and ozzy maybe.It sounds like D D listened to kiss to much and noone else had much to add musically.like they had to release something but had no tunes written just putting together anything they could."

+13381,2,Rosalind Russell Rules,"Cary Grant is great in HIS GIRL FRIDAY--Cary Grant was great in everything he ever did--but it is Rosalind Russell who makes this film for me. She was an atypical film actress for her day, playing a middle ground between the typical starlet and the tough-gal Betty Davis type. Russell is tough, tart, and totally believeable as Grant's ex, an independent beauty who wants a man but can do without him too.Whadda woman!As for the script, it's one of the wordiest around, quick and clipped, witty and inescapeably sharp. If Charles Lederer wasn't recognized for this screenplay, there was fraud afoot."
+13382,1,Broken,"The item came with one side totally broken. I wanted the spices and didn't have the energy to send it back, but it was definitely disappointing and not worth what I spent on the product."
+13383,1,Newbies Beware,"I will start by saying that I am by no means an experienced programmer. In just starting out, I wanted a book that would show me some sample programs that I could use to ""learn by doing"". With the C++ Cookbook, I was very disappointed by the overuse of programming vocabulary without any explanation or definitions. This book is definitely organized for more experienced minds with specific development problems in their paths. It is NOT for anyone just getting into programming. Maybe if you've tried other languages and want to step into C++, this could be helpful. Regardless, I still have a little bit of a problem with how they present the different builders and compilers. They give a great many options but if you're not familiar with them, they don't give much direction on how to use them.To be clear: stay away if this is your first foray into computer programming."
+13384,2,A Loving Home,"Professor Butler's well written book is not just for African-Americans, it would be useful for all couples - married or not. The book emphasizes the need for communication and openness, trust and care. The book has wonderful pastoral or spiritual overtones. Each chapter ends with a section entitled ""Considerations for Caring -questions and observations that apply to all in relationship. I highly recommend the book to those in the pastoral care area, to other professional counselors and to all who are in or entering relationship. In fact I plan to give it as a gift to friends who are in these fields and to all my friends who are contemplating marriage."
+13385,1,These Blankets Are Awful!,"I had to replace the blanket 5 times because the controller would not work properly. When I returned one of the blankets to the manufacturer, I was advised that the company was out of buisiness and that the new company would not honor the warranty .This is a terrible company that makes very unreliable blankets. I can see why the original company went bankrupt."
+13386,2,Good book for Bach,This is a good starter book for pianists learning how Bach's techniques are used and how his works can be simplified.
+13387,1,It is awful!,"I wish I had read the reviews before I purchased the item. Naughty on me! The game is awful. It crashes often, has no historical accuracy and is inoperable. Do not purchase this Rusky developed joke."
+13388,1,Yikes! What a waste of 2 hours of my life!,"Was this a fantasy movie, or a drama about the Spanish Civil War? The fantasy portion of the movie was pretty good, but the sadistic fascists vs the noble revolutionaries part really sucked. Talk about stereotypical bad guys and good guys. Absolutely no character depth or meaningful plot here. And in case the producers/writers decide to make another film like this, they might do with a history refresher and not have the Spanish civil war last until 1945, when it ended in 39."
+13389,1,What a Shame,"There is a lot of background music in this film that never made this collection. Unfortunetly it was also some of the best music from the movie. Why don't they put together ""real"" soundtracks that include all of the artists used? Instead they always give us their own watered-down choices. Bummer."
+13390,1,I can't upload music for the PC,"Only can play the radio, the computer don't recognize this device and I am not allowed to put music to it"
+13391,1,Dissapointed,"After reading ""Tuesdays with Morrie"" I thought great things of this author. Unfortunately I was very dissapointed in ""The Five People You Meet in Heaven"". I had a difficult time getting through this one due to its slow pace and boring content. This could have been a great book, but the author missed the boat here. Read ""Tuesdays with Morrie"" and leave this one on the shelf."
+13392,2,A great film that got me thinking...Can it be that easy to infiltrate the Mafia,"Just kidding, that aside, i watched this simply because of the fact that it is based on a true story. It's not more of 'a' true story but the most infamous story in American history. I noticed that 'true stories' that are diverted into films always become some of the most epic films ever seen, and sometimes it can be embarassing i.e Ed Wood and Pollock. Donnie Brasco, maybe one of the most famed and celebrated films of the late 90s was also the most brilliantly acted from the entire cast. From extras to supporting roles such as the fantastic Michael Madsen and his rendition of Sonny Black.The story is fast paced, often changing the relationship between characters and bringing out the actors out of their shells to purly shine. This is not a big review because there's not much to say but that this is truly fine work and one of the most unforgettable and controversial stories in the United States."
+13393,2,Beautiful Daydream,"At this point Mariah was like the energizer bunny. This cd marks the time when Mariah started encorporating hints of hiphop into her music. What a nice blend of pop, r&b;, hiphop, and pure soul. This cd also spawned the landmark single FANTASY featuring the late O.D.B. This song would be the blueprint for alot of future divas to follow. Mariah hit the mark first so let's keep that in mind. A more introspective mariah emerges on this cd with the song Looking In. And of course this cd contains the Super Hit ONE SWEET DAY featuring Boys To Men...This cd is an all around winner....."
+13394,1,what the hell?,"when i bought this i wasn't expecting to hear boring instrumental music , and rollin's beatneck poetry. Black Flag is a good band but their musicianship isn't very good , especially to put out instrumental songs. buy some of the others like First Four Years , My War , and Everything Went Black instead"
+13395,2,Family Favorites-Sports,A bundle of 3 children's sports movies that we have enjoyed in the past. I was excited to see them bundled together and at a great price for the group.
+13396,1,Wished I didn't spend the money,So in buying this book for a comlpete brake job on my 1979 F350. I looked at every single page... Nothing in this book had the info I was looking for. I would suggest going to a local book store and seeing if the information that you realy need is in these books before buying saves time and money. Thank god I had the general knowledge to complete the job.
+13397,1,Does not fit in a regular Keurig Machine,"Does not fit in a regular Keurig Machine, it is too long and I can't close the top of it"
+13398,2,Awesome for the price that is!,Purchased it from (something like out post.com ) for $299.I'm happy with it especially for the price paid. Used built in unit in Mercedes 300E and it has larger screen and all but it was very expensive option. Beauty of this device based on pocked pc is that you can take it with you anywhere! Set up was simple but noticed that map is bit outdated as noted by other reviewers.GPS at times took a while to lock on but once it locked stayed the course. And placing it on windshied meant I don't have to take my eye off too.I'd give 4 only due to the outdated map.
+13399,2,Needed for old Willys,"This is a great heater control valve for the 1960 Willys. It could be more rugged materials, but appears to function fine and I expect to get many years of service from it."
+13400,2,Used these to replace rollers that were extra jumbo size in other set!,"Okay, maybe I can use the 5 rollers when I travel, but I really wanted to get 4 Jumbo rollers to replace the extra jumbo (too large!)rollers in my other set that has 12. (Now I have an extra one and heat it up too!) This was the cheapest way to do it. Conair hot rollers are as good and maybe a little better/faster/reliable than all those really expensive sets out there. I have gone back to using hot rollers as these velvet covered rollers seem to protect my hair a lot better than the fancy curling irons. And, I can do something else while they sit in my hair and they are a lot faster than a curling iron... (Of course, I grew up rolling my hair every night/day with about every kind of roller made... but these sure make my very long hair look really good... and that came from a professional stylist who commented on my ""do"" and the great condition of my hair... so, yes, I really like these Conair hot rollers! :)"
+13401,2,Wow,"This may be overstating the case a little, and I admit that being an old Main frame person the idea of a drive that fits on my keychain that I can carry with me impresses me to no end.In these days of 100 gig HD's 256m doesn't seem like much but nothing is more portable. Perfect for a person who needs to install demo software at a customer location, or perfect for a presentation that needs to be put on a machine.You don't get much more small and compact that this drive. Fits on my keychain can carry it just about anywhere and plugs and plays.In fact the only downside to the drive IS the small size. I'm the type that loses my head if it isn't attached and loses his keys even easier. Although the drive does have privacy settings so a user would have to wipe and re-install without a password it still an expensive item to lose.Of course if you are more careful than me about such things then it will really make your life easier."
+13402,1,Fairly lightweight and a bit confusing,"I enjoy Glenn Beck, his show and his message for the most part. But I found this book a little confusing. After a few pages, you get the impression that Beck is a humble and sometimes self-deprecating guy. Yet, he includes a bunch of photos of himself (some with famous people) that really don't have much to do with the book. It smacks of name-dropping.A lot of the book comes across as being lightweight fluff (especially the ""chapter"" on partisan politics) - why even have a chapter if you're just going to fill it with ""blah blah blah blah."" Beck oversimplifies some things, and this is probably the worst example. I think he would have done better to make his point in a more intelligent fashion, at least in this instance.On the other hand, not all is lost here. He spins a few heartwarming tales, but there simply aren't enough of these moments to offset the weaker bits.Borrow this one from the library like I did."
+13403,2,Bodium Stainless Steel 3-cup Coffee Press,"It took several tries to come up with the right combination of number of beans, how long to heat water in microwave,and how long to brew the beans to come with the perfect cup of coffee.I use 1 1/2 teaspoons of coffee.. heat the water for 3 1/2 minutes in microwave then let it brew for 4 minutes..PERFECT.Only gripe... I use a good size coffee cup.. and have to fill the press to the top to get ""1 full cup""...In no way will this make 3 cups. All the bitterness is taken out I never experienced such wonderful tasting coffee."
+13404,1,"Cheap, unreliable.","Radius Technology DVDs ID as ""OPTODISC"" brand media. (That is, OPTODISC makes the discs for Radius). OPTODISC media are generally found to be lousy: poor compatibility with many burners and many ""coaster"" (unreadable) burns. Amazon has high quality RIDATA blanks for a little more money. I highly recommend you buy them instead. Save yourself a lot of headaches and (if you store anything of importance) heartbreak. There really *IS* a significant difference between very cheap DVD media (like these) and better DVD media (like the Ridata)."
+13405,1,An irritating movie.,"The special effects are o.k., but that's about the only good thing to be said about this overrated piece of junk. It's an annoying and irritating mess, filled with actors who think they're having fun, when in reality they dislike the material. It if weren't for Burton or the big budget, would they care ?. -Ofcourse not. It does however feature two of my favorite actors; Joseph Maher and Sylvia Sidney. The great Maher is wasted in yet another nothing-part, but Sidney is marvellous as Grandma. There's really not much else to recommend it, I'm afraid."
+13406,1,Known Defect in Sony CCD Assembly,"BEWARE of the Sony Camcorder products. I have a TRV 38 and, like many, many other people, the picture (LCD/CCD connection) went dead just after the warranty period. Do a google search on this issue and read the video forums to see the enormous problem that Sony has with these camers. There is talk of a consumer class action against Sony on this issue since it affects several of their models and they have refused to deal honorably with the problem. I will say that when it worked the camera was just great, perfect picture and easy to use. Avoid the heartbreak of finding a dead camera on your child's first birthday, as I did, and buy something else."
+13407,2,"History that reads like a novel,","or one of those long running soap operas from the golden age of radio. Characters coming & going then reappearing later in the story. There are villians, heroes, heroines, conspiracy & even murder.This excellent, informative work evokes two eras. First its subject matter giving us a history of Washington during the Civil War. This subject has not been covered as heavily as the various battles & endless biographies of the notable figures of that war. The book was written 76 years after the war. Here we are 62 years after that listening to Ms. Leech words, also of a different era than our own. The language in which it was written is quaint, colloquil & even offensive to some in our time. That is part of it significance as an important work. It is also an entertaining history book. Imagine that."
+13408,2,Fine Study Aid,"Although I would never depend on one source to pass any certification exam, this text does help you understand many of the topics needed to pass the MOUS Proficient & Expert Level exams. I found the layout of the chapters a bit confusing artistically, but concentrating on the necessary tasks are helpful."
+13409,1,Graduate Student from Caltech,This book is better than some textbook because of its clear edition. But the concepts in this book seems like copied from other two textbooks.It is pity that we cannot get some new concepts from it.
+13410,1,Cracks after it dries,It was easy to apply but was hard after it dried. Then it cracked and fell apart. I wouldn 't recommend this to anyone.
+13411,2,Equs: The Creation of a Horse,"Like other books by Robert Vavra, the pictures and the presentation were superb. Anyone who appreciates horses, will be sure to love this book!"
+13412,1,No charger came with it,This item didn't ship with a charger. There was a notch in the foam for it but it was empty. Ended up having to spend an extra 40 for a new charger....Im sure the product works great but buying it from amazon was a waste...
+13413,1,Not good,"When I finaly gave this as the gift I purchased it for I had to explain that I bought it online and didn't know what I was getting. It was embarrasing, I was trying to go for something chik to give from one mom to another. Ha ha it would only hold like one diaper and it was a cheap plastic material! Oh well"
+13414,1,DO NOT BUY THIS GAME,"This is a horrible game, I mean it is just down right stupid. The fish are a real pain to catch and the line always snaps on the weakest fish when you are fishing. On top of that the game has the WORST music I have ever heard. The controls are odd and the graphics STINK. The worst part is trying to pick out the right bait to use. The are over 30 kind of bait and only one kind works for each fish. So the whole time you are trying to pick the right bait when the timer is going down. To get new levels you need to beat challenges which are impossible. You get WAY to little time catch a lot of really rare fish. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY BUY A BETTER GAME. !GOOD TIMES!"
+13415,2,IF YOU BUY... WHAT THE ROCK IS PLAYING,"This is thet game ever hit PS2 you could play for hours and hours and not ever get bored (it happend to me)the graphics are better the funnest part is when tazz (the comentator) wrestles while holding a microphone (hehehe)you could play 6 man elemanation match .and 50 new super stars.WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!IF YOU BUY....WHAT THE ROCK, IS PLAYING"
+13416,1,Not Worth It,I would not recommend purchasing this. It is a total waste of money. The necessary information is available elswhere without a price tag. I feel totally ripped off.
+13417,2,Even out the Bull reviews,"Hey, I think DBZ is cool and those guys who wrote 1 star reviews aren't. I haven't seen this particular one though."

+13419,1,Not so great,"When I opened the box, this pill box was already damaged. Tuesday AM's door was broken. Given the price, it was not even worth my time to return or exchange. It looks pretty nice, but with a broken door, its pretty worthless to me."
+13420,2,Love this book as do my students.,Just great and his character grows on you. Fun! A delight and and big help in my studio with new students and those not too proud to begin at the beginning. Excellent.M. Hinton
+13421,1,Didn't Like it,"Tried this book on a recommendation from my brother. Found it really stupid and kind of arrogant in the use of language, like he was trying too hard to impress you with obscure words (and I like to think I have a pretty good vocabulary). Kind of like he swallowed a thesaurus and borrowed other peoples stories besides. Read the whole thing, but have no desire to read any more of the series. Main character too angry and couldn't seem to get over it. Wore me out."
+13422,1,hunter's heart,very hard to follow plot and storyline. could not stay interested. would not recommend to anyone looking for a good read
+13423,1,Having your ear chewed by an old uncle with his faded album,"I've recommended Hughes' The Fatal Shore to countless friends and also enjoyed his book on fishing, and so bought Barcelona to read on a trans-Pacific flight. What a disappointment!While superficially about a Catalan city, it is a totally self-absorbed exercise in navel gazing: `all Hughes all the time.' Do I really need to know how many dishes of pasta each of his stepsons ate at his 3rd wedding? Not really.This is a hugely and annoyingly self-indulgent book. I bought it to read about Barcelona, but the first few chapters were about Mr Hughes navel in three dimensions. I could not continue and deleted the file from my iPad.One of the hazards of professional writing is coming to believe that readers are interested in you. No, Mr Hughes, I want to read about Barcelona and not about your immodest self."
+13424,1,Great watch but high maintainence,"THis watch is sweet first of all, but...after about a year the band needed replacing. No problem I thought. Well not very easy to find. The replacement band was about 40 bucks and had to be ordered through Chase Durer. Then the battery started going dead...also no problem I thought but Chase D says that you can't replace it yourself it must be done through them - that would have been another 50 bucks...but I did it myself anyway and somehow the dials got a bit off-centered and figured that it probably cost even more cash to get that fixed. So all in all I spent 250 on the watch and found that maintaining the watch for my lifetime would probably triple the money already spent - no thanks. Great watch but high maintenence."
+13425,1,"Wrong Translation of Divine Comedy - Shame On You, Christian Audio!!","Shame on You, Christian Audio!! -I had ordered this audio recording from Amazon.com because I was specifically looking for the excellent John Ciardi translation. The recording arrived today and I was shocked to find that it is not the John Ciardi translation (Inferno 1954, Purgatorio 1961, Paradiso 1970) as advertised and shown in the photograph of the product; but the poor 1891-92 Charles Eliot Norton prose translation. I am shocked and speechless!!! The packaging of the set was changed by replacing ""Translated by John Ciardi"" with ""Read by Pam Ward""; but the on-line photo of the product was not updated; so it would seem that Christianaudio may have known that this was not the Ciardi translation; but pushed it out anyway!!! Now Amazon has combined all reviews of any version or media format of the Divine Comedy together so that no one will see the negative reviews for this specific product.SHAME ON YOU!!!"
+13426,2,House of Love (import),Though not her best work this is a must have album if your a fan of Amy's. This album is complete with bonus tracks (remix of Say You'll Be Mine and Politics Of Kissing) but are well worth the extra money you have to pay for it. So even if you already have the US version buy this one also. Also check out Lead Me On and Behind the Eyes.
+13427,1,"good battery, useless solar functionality","I bought this to cover me during longer power outages (even short outages are thankfully very rare in my area, but it seemed wise to be prepared). It works fine as a battery -- plugged into the wall or into the car -- but the solar panel is so useless that even in a fully sunlit window it effectively does nothing. Buy a non-solar battery and get the same thing without the useless addition...or move outdoors and close to the equator so that the panel might actually charge the battery."
+13428,1,Horrible and NO Customer service!,"I purchased this item at a R us store today. We got it home and there was no T strap included. When I called the customer service line after being disconnected twice, I voiced my complaint. I asked how I would be able to obtain the strap and they said I had to purchase it if I want one. I told them it was a missing part, the seat has the holes to accomodate the strap, the strap was missing from the box. The rep then told me if my daughter couldn't sit in the chair with out falling out then maybe I shouldn't have her in a chair! The box advertises the chair is good for 18 mos plus. My daughter is almost 2 and I do not trust her sitting in a chair unstrapped. I don't think I am in a minority of people in this catergory. I then told the rep that any persom with an 18 month old wouldn't put their child in this seat and she then said so be it and hung up. I DO NOT RECOMMEND this chair to ANYONE."
+13429,1,Pure Fiction,"I could not agree more with the last two reviews. The only reason I gave this one star is because you can not give it less than that. This book should be under the fiction section as it contains nothing but that. I was in Iraq when the CPA built and occupied this site and during the build up to the attack. A lot of the problems that the author mentions were created by him and his poor leadership. He had numerous offers to locate his camp in a more secure location but chose not to. The fact is that it was the author who endangered peoples lives and the funny thing was that some of the people who saved the day are the ones that he keeps shooting down; i.e. KBR.Please do not buy this book as the author does not deserve to make any money or receive recognition of what he did, or in this case did not do, in Iraq."
+13430,2,Too big,"I bought these boots for my husband and it's true. They run one size too big. Other than that, the boots are very well-made and look great with his jeans."
+13431,1,cheaper in the stores,"i got several of these toys for party favors at my kid's b-day party. They're ok for bag fillers, but i think this online price is ridiculous so i had to leave a comment...they shouldn't cost more than a dollar a piece, because they're not worth more than that!! It's just a balloon filled with what i assume is fine sand..then some kooshy hair on top..most of them have large print ""made in China"" on the back. they will wear and pop in time..again it's just a novelty stocking stuffer or party bag stuffer, not an actual long term toy."
+13432,1,Enough Already!,"This book is only a hit because people want to see just how much of a rhymes-with-witch American Vogue editor Anna Wintour really is. Fine. We get the picture in the first chapter - she's kennel bait. The rest of the book is a whine and cheese party for the main character who is given a series of jobs to do, each more humiliating than the last. By the fifth chapter you just want to slap this girl until your hand is numb. I only made it halfway through the book before I gave up."
+13433,2,I love this man!,"Awww. Lenny, baby, I just love you. I miss his locs. Anyway. The album really is a greatest hits. Its really good for a long road trip when you need some gritty raunchy guitar to reverberate though you torso and give you the energy you need to keep on to your destination. Its really good stuff. Add it to your wishlist or buy it now."
+13434,1,From a disappointed skeptic....,"The book was interesting and readable; however, it clearly states that you, on your own, cannot be cured. It requires intervention by professionals (preferably at a clinic) and the details of the treatment appear to be purposely vague. Since there is so little information on this subject available and medical treatment is practically nonexistent, it is certainly better than nothing but do not expect a magic cure."
+13435,2,great movie,"I love when the guys assault the mansion,and snipe... heeGreat, Robert Patrick was great in this movie, highly recommend if like The Unit,"
+13436,2,Great pen,The pen is great. It fits in that little pocket of your jeans. I was never really sure what the purpose of that little pocket was until I got my spacepen. Now I know. Refill lasts me almost a year and I use it daily for quick notes and sometimes meeting minutes.
+13437,2,Great Oral Mouthwash For Piercings,"This works awesome if you've just gotten a new piercing. On this stuff, my mouth was almost never sore and I heal up in about a week and a half (I had a tongue piercing). Although, I'd only recommend this product if absolutely nothing else worked for you. It's a little bit on the expensive side for just a mouthwash. And the tiny bottle only lasted me a week. Just enough time for me to heal up and not really need it anymore. Other than that I recommend this product over all."
+13438,2,cord to the omnibook,It may have worked well. It was in great shape and packaged well but I don't have a laptop and I sent it back.
+13439,1,Don't buy it,"It wasted my money! If your carpet has clear color like white beige, you will see stain after using it, because it will not suck all the liquid back. If you insist on trying, then go to a local walmart and buy it from there for same price here, so you can return without much on shipping cost."
+13440,2,Good music to drive to,"I got this CD used cause I liked 'sittin sidewayz' This CD is pretty good. I got the edited one by mistake and am glad because it has more tracks evidently than the explicit lyrics version. Also, that lacks some of the best songs. My favorites are 'sippin tha barre' and 'so many diamonds'. 'State to State' grew me on me and is one of my favorites too. Get the clean version for the extra tracks. Not a classic, but entertaining. I'll look for wall's next album."
+13441,2,Superb flick.,"I've got a bone or 2 to pick with this film, even though its great, Deep Blue Sea has it's problems. Why did only 2 people live in the end? Why is there so many shark attacks? Why did they have to kill the cute birdie? Oh well.Welcome to Aquatica, home of the big, mean, smart, fast sharks. Unfortunately, there is a storm and the gang there find out that the sharks have broken out and are now looking for something to chew on! Who's gonna make it out? Who will kill those .... sharks? Not telling, you'll just have to sit back, scream and enjoy.'Deep Blue Sea' is the best shark flick ever. See it!"
+13442,1,Not compelling,"Having read some first hand accounts of pioneers who crossed the country on the Oregon Trail and aacounts of the Donner Party and other such histories, I had hopes this would be an interesting and detailed first hand account of an historic experience. I found it lacking."
+13443,2,I love this movie!!,I first saw this movie in 1994. I loved it then and have been trying to find it since. No one carried it (to obscure). Thanks to Amazon.com for re-releasing it on video. I still love this movie and will be eagerly awaiting it's arrival!The fight scenes are poetry in motion! Beautiful!
+13444,1,WOW NOT GOOD!,"This CD is Great! if you love laughing. i'v heard that the cd is funny and good and it was but only funny and not good. its funny because its so terrible, ""WOW!!!"" and it does make you get hucked on the beats, but mainly from a diffrent cd that you put in by the 32nd second of the first few songs that go by. i would say to deffinitly buy it but just to get a good laugh out of it. its a hole new form of .......wellll ..... i guess something right...??"
+13445,2,"Very durable, passed a tough test!","I bought this jacket because I just needed something cheap to use on my first snowboard trip on WA. Even though I fell MANY MANY times, the jacket did not suffer any damage and kept me dry even though I was eating snow on regular basis. I used it a few days before to withstand the lovely Seattle rainy weather and it kept me dry and warm. For the price, it certainly is a great product."
+13446,2,Love the film:,"I have seen the film in theaters and about a hundred times on DVD. I beleive it to be the very best film on dvd. Ps. HEY DUDE WHO WROTE THAT SAMURAI IS INNCORECT AND BUSHI IS CORRECT IS WRONG, BUSHI WAS THE SAMURAI'S NAME BEFORE THEY WENT INTO SERVICE OF THE EMPEROR, SAMURAI ""TO SERVE"" MEANS TO SERVE THE EMPEROR, READ UP ON YOUR HISTORY BEFORE MAKING SUCH ALIGATIONS.ANYWAYS best dang movie of all time 5 out of 5."
+13447,2,winter in thrush green,We listened the this tape on a road trip. My 9 y.o. daughter and I enjoyed it very much. We talked about the unusual characters and wondered what they would do next!!!
+13448,2,Trash Can Cart,"I purchased this product for my sister and it is fantastic. Not only does it hold our two trashcans so that she can just wheel them to the curb, it will also hold the recycle bin. It was so simple to put together that it was done in minutes. It is an awesome addition to our family."
+13449,2,Great coffeemaker for the price!,"Just purchased my third and fourth Michael Graves' Coffeemakers. My husband and I go through a lot of coffee--from making up his thermos in the morning--to keeping the pots going up until the time we go to bed. We wore out the first two--the heating plates do tend to give out--but that's my only criticism. The coffee tastes great, I love the styling and the no drip pour spout of the decanters.In my opinion, for the price, it's the best value out there."
+13450,1,Not very pleased with subscription,"The subscription filled its duty. It arrived when it stated, and we received every issue. However, it was not what my husband expected. It had very few articles that he enjoyed. He expected more out of the magazine and was very disappointed."
+13451,2,"Exit, Voice & Loyalty","Swell book, full of fresh ideas (though written 40 years ago). Real eye-opener in terms of helping me to give a shape and structure to fragmentary thoughts and feelings I had on this topic before...The only remark I have concerns a technical issue - transport of the book:Although I got the book OK and quickly (despite I live overseas), I found the book lying at my door - which is not quite usual in my country; it could have been lost very easily (as there unfortunately are lots of thieves)...Please consider instructing your transport company (UPS?) to keep the delivery at their nearest office (where I could pick it up) when I'm not at home."
+13452,1,BAD QUALITY AND SERVICE,"I bought this modem over a month ago...it doesn't work, a completely dead modem. Once their technical department was convinced that it wasn't due to my error, they agreed to take it back. They RELUCTANTLY agreed to mail me a pre-postage package for return, but it has never arrived. This is a bad product, as well as bad customer service, plain and simple. Trust me, avoid it if you're not wanting to be out a modem, as well as the money."
+13453,1,Everything but Flamenco!,If you are looking for flamenco... hop on!Flamenco is from the heart. Alabina is made to sell. It does include a lot exotic influences and sounds rather nice.
+13454,2,Appealed To The Masses,"I enjoyed this when it came out, just as millions of other folks did. It had a nice feel to it, good humor, great music and it didn't offend, from believer to atheist. It even had some action scenes. Many movies which combine genres (i.e. action and comedy) wind up successes. It's not a bad formula.Although Whoopi Goldberg is the undeniable star of this movie, Kathy Najimy as ""Sister Mary Patrick"" almost steals the show as the bubbly nun. However, always a sucker for a pretty and wholesome face, I preferred Mary Wickes as ""Sister Mary Lazarus."" She had this shy countenance to her before blossoming with her voice. Maybe that's why she had the name Lazarus as her personality rose from the dead."
+13455,1,Old part and not suitable for Gateway LT2104u Notebook,"After reviewing the product's characteristics I purchased it, but it didn't perform as expected when installed in my notebook. When I consulted the manufacturer, I received comments such as: ""yes, this is the right part for your system""; """"you might need the faster memory - PC2-6400"". After reviewing the old part number."". The purchased part is old and has been replaced by faster and more reliable 2MB RAM memory sticks."
+13456,2,Great Product,"My 3 month old loves this mobile & has since he was about 2 months old. The only problem with it is when the items slide down the bars as it rotates, it makes a lot of noise. He will not fall asleep because of this noise. The bright colors mixed with the black & white are great for baby's developing eyes. This mobile keeps him entertained for quite a while."
+13457,1,works sort of,"Considering the cost of this item, I should not have to complain but I will. This product only works if you press on it really hard, and then you still are basically pressing and pressing with minimum results. Word to the wise, invest in a better product or get a new garment."
+13458,1,all computerized=embroidery?,"For on-line buyers, it's nice book to use if you have a embroidery machine, not just a computerized machine. the title is a bit misleading because not all computerized machines can perform the task which embroidery machines can do. Besides, the book seems to advocate mostly not only on the top of the line machines but also softwares as well. For those alreay own a embroidery machine, softwares, and special scanner, I doubted that they would run out of ideas and need help from this book."
+13459,2,Love the movie,"I loved on how the movie captured a great part of the books. Though, if one has never heard of the book series, one may think that the movie has left a lot of gaps and unanswered questions. When watching this movie, consider the fact that back in those days, men were already men at an early part of their lives."
+13460,2,Terry Pluto's Best Book,"This is a hilarious book. Marvin Barnes could be a book himself. The story of the player who thought $1,500 was less than a thousand dollars had me crying from laughing so hard. Great book!"
+13461,1,WORST SEQUEL EVER!,"And i mean it. This movie is so bad that it makes the first film look better than any bond film ever(not that the first one was bad though). Ice cube gets so annoying trying to have a ""though guy"" look. First, action heroes aren't fat or gangster, second, just don't watch this movie!"
+13462,2,Best book on the Emotional healing techniques,This is the best book on Accupressure for emotiona or EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques). Procedures are very well explained with lots of diagrams. Doing the balancing and Polarity Reversal techniques they have mentioned relaxes anybody. I was able to resolve couple of emotional issues very easily within minutes. This technique really works! You can also use it to improve your performance. Highly recommended.
+13463,2,It's the 1 Elton John album,"In 1969, Elton John make ""Empity sky"" . The Rock song of the song title was great.""Skyline Pigeon"" was the song in my opinion , the great impact in 1973(beacause Elton released a new version of this song in that year).""Lady Samantha"" was my favorite song of this album. Released in 1969 in England( and released in United States in 1975) this album is the start of Elton wordwide superstar"
+13464,2,Worthy of an upgrade to Blu-Ray,"This was one of my all-time favorite television series, although the lack of a showdown between Swearingen/Bullock vs Hearst was a bit disappointing in Season 3. Deadwood was one of about six or seven dvds in my collection that I thought was worthy of upgrading to Blu-Ray. I kept waiting for the price to come down, then finally pulled the trigger when it dipped below $60. I see it's currently back up to $80. This price of this set is more volatile than the stock market!"
+13465,2,All OK,"Everything is OK. It worked perfectly. I have spent hours playing live and have no problem. Product 100% recommended, seriously. I tell you. Believe me."
+13466,1,Barely works,"I purchased this to replace a remote that was only working about 50% of the time. This one is no better. If it does work, it's only when I'm standing at the door, and even that close it's a 50/50 shot of it not working.Waste of money, it is not any better than the remote I was replacing, except the buttons are not as worn down."
+13467,2,8 Years Later...,"We are now in 2002, I have listened to this CD ever since it came out when I was in elementary. GREENDAY'S DOOKIE IS BY FAR, THE BEST ALBUM EVER CREATED!!! I have countless memories of chillin' while listening to this CD. This is the kind of music that you listen to while buzzing and watching cartoons. Getting a little old, but is no reason to not buy it if you havnt gotten it yet. We occasionally still play it at parties when everyone lazy'ing off!!! A++++++++++++"
+13468,2,Urban legend,"Dr. Page has created a dynamic, readable exploration of the history of design and construction in what is arguably the modern world's greatest city. His vivid descriptions and insightful analyses are complemented by a treasury of remarkable photographs and other illustrations. This extremely readable, intelligent book is an indispensible resource for anyone who claims to truly know the Big Apple."
+13469,1,Useless,"I bought this and hate it. The mouse works intermittantly and is too heavy. The numeric keyboard beeps and displays incoming emails and IMs seemingly at random and usually several days after the messages arrive. It also ran out of battery power after a week's use. Also, the keyboard feel is horrible and it's impossible to key in numbers quickly and reliably with it. Same goes for the main keyboard; the space button frequently will not work. Oh, and the first time I use the numeric keypad after some time of non-use, it often sends two consecutive numbers with one keystroke. Example: I type 123, and it comes out as ""1123."" I will say the design is very cool; too bad this product is useless."
+13470,1,Not sure it's worth it,"I've bought two of these for my Compaq Armada M700 one lasted a week before losing power rapidly, the other lasted a month. Now six months after purchase of the last one I'm down to a 30% charge and that's all. Next time I think I'll just go for the original Compaq battery."
+13471,2,Reel fun!,We saw this movie for the first time years ago when it first came out and loved it. We all dream of a time when everything falls into place and something great happens. This is a story about that. Dreyfus and Tilley and the rest of the cast just make it happen. Very fun and funny story done perfectly. A must have for our collection and highly recommended to you.
+13472,2,Good basic floor mats at low price,Needed a pair of floor mats for a 95 Del Sol I recently bought which didn't have any floor mats. These floor mats met my needs at a low price and looked good in a red car with black interior.
+13473,1,Master modeler only.,"Many, many small parts that have you questioning why so many small parts (i.e. range finding radar parts) have to be put together other than making it in the ""master modeler"" category. I would stick with the 1/600 or larger scales unless you have a magnifying glass, tweezers or kelly clamps, and several files. Also do not like the way the main guns mount to the turrets, totally different than Trumpeter's 1/700 Prinz Eugen's main guns."
+13474,1,The usual unlistenable Nimbus sonics destroys performance,"This disc combines one of the 20th centuries most famous clarinetists, Karl Leister, with the Brandis Quartet, both from Berlin. Leister is one of the masters of Brahms' Op. 115 Clarinet Quintet and has recorded the work with a number of other ensembles. The Brandis Quartet I think plays pretty well. Unfortunately, the talents of the performers are put to waste by the Nimbus label's typically awful sonics, at once harsh, acerbic and murky. This disc marks the latest of my many failed experiments with this label.Look for other alternatives. Not recommended."
+13475,1,Are these really 501's ???,"My husband has other Levis 501's and these new ones are different in the weight of fabric ( light), fit(tighter in the leg and crotch) and color of stiching(white). Also the rivits and buttons are white instead of metal color. They also shrank when washed in cold water and line dried. Are these real Levis 501's or knock off's ?They are made in Mexico, his older ones are made in Colombia and are regular heavy fabric Levi 501 work pants. We are not happy with these pants but have already washed and used them. We would never order them again."
+13476,2,PT 109,"I am up to 7 books about Kennedy. I will simply say the best so far and the biggest surprise out of them all. It's a small book and would not take long to get through it, trust me it's worth the time. If you like military books, presidental books or Kennedy books. Simple the best I have read on him yet, truly shows what a great leader is."
+13477,2,A collection of poetry inspired by the tragedy and sorrow caused by the tsunami worldwide,"Only The Sea Keeps: Poetry Of The Tsunami, collaboratively edited by Judith R. Robinson, Joan E. Bauer and Sankar Roy, is a collection of poetry inspired by the tragedy and sorrow caused by the tsunami worldwide. Deeply moving and intimate, Only The Sea Keeps gives the reader the gift of knowing, feeling and becoming a part of the tragedy. Faithfully recommended for all who feel the repercussions of the tsunami's strike. Sonnet After The Tsunami: Oh the sea will return and sing out/our names from the leagues below;/claim its face here -- /nose to the horizon,/its lips of mud,/foaming eyes.//Pa and Ma are in the heavens./They re safe. Neighbors and/animals gone,/birds so quiet what's speech/for? A throaty sound of this/one pebble on the beach.//Roll it again,/roll. -- Alamgir Hashmi"
+13478,1,Didn't work,"The product did not work, I put the disc into my computer and it turned my screen completely black."
+13479,2,Fantastic and testimony building,"This book can really help you relate to the events that took place in the Book of Mormon. I feel like I am there with Nephi and the rest. Great book for members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, as well as anyone who likes a good adventure book."
+13480,1,"Bad, bad, really bad.","Words need not even be wasted on this product. Besides each character having a different voice than that in the movie, the audio effects are terrible, as well as the actors and script. The one good thing about this product is its availability is limited. Save your time, save your money. Don't let Lucas put his hand in your pocket."
+13481,1,"Good start, but needs better accuracy","While it is good to have books like this, to help educate scientists in non-mainstream Japanese, there are quite a lot of mistakes that I have come across - both in the English and the Japanese. Also, some of the Japanese usage is quite strange, and generally a bit outdated.For me, the greatest use is in the vocabulary, however without an index it is quite difficult to track down the specific words.Could be useful to have around, however will need a bit of work, hopefully with a few Japanese scientists, if there is going to be another edition."
+13482,1,What??,"In a weekend of watching little known thrillers and ghost stories, we thought this one would be the most suspenseful and well made. Ah, how disappointed we are now. Although the lead actor is a stunning beauty, what the hell was she doing and where was the plot? The film moves too slowly and for the most part was poorly acted. The only believable character was Mr. Laine and he was on the screen for 20 seconds. The sexual undertones (overtones?) did not add the edginess that was required and ended up just being disturbing for disturbing's sake. If empathy was the intent in the abuse references, this movie really missed the mark in a very unsettling way."
+13483,2,Gorgeous,"Although the islands are ignored, the crisp photography, narrator with a pleasant burr and fine music make this an exceptional entry in the ""Visions of"" collection. Almost equal to ""Over Ireland,"" still the best of the fly-by films."
+13484,1,Cashing in on Jerry,"This is one of the most insulting books that I have ever read in my life. To think that Bob's sis would dare cash in on Jerry's name for a few bucks is absotively despicable. The book itself is nothing but new age garbage with little respect for the common sense of the reader, whom I'm sure Wendy thinks are little 14 year old fashion hippies that couldn't form their own opinion to save Jerry's soul. Hey, I'm a spiritual cat too, but I don't claim to be able to channel the spirit of Jerry Garcia. I don't care if you're his soul mate, I don't buy it, literally and you shouldn't buy it financially. It disgusts me to think how many family members or wannabe family members are making money off of all these Jerry books and songs and God knows what else. I can't wait till this stuff dies down and we're back to an underground thing again. Jeez!"
+13485,2,The old standby for daily meditation,"The ""little black book"" is one of the most trusted, helpful brief devotionals of the recovery movement. Useful to both AA and NA members and ever those still struggling with active addiction, ""24-Hours a Day"" is a wonderful way to begin each new day with a useful reminder of God's goodness."
+13486,2,My Son Always Liked this Movie,The score to RAINTREE COUNTY has finally been issued with Nat King Cole singing the main title. This CD sounds very good. My son always liked this movie. My best friend in Dallas told me that Montgomery Clift had been in our ROTC class for a short time but I really don't remember seeing him. The music is just fine and as a Civil War tale this movie is as good as they come. I always watched it when it was on TV.
+13487,1,Kevin Trudeau sucks,"What a boring book. He says the same things OVER and OVER again, chapter to chapter. Very badly written. Actually, it reads as though it were transcribed from several of his lectures and infomercials. The secret he reveals to the world includes the facts that you have to refrain from all prescription meds while on the ""protocol"" (he maintains it's NOT a diet ... yeah, sure), and (get this) take daily injections with a compound normally present in pregnant women. Of course, a woman's body, even if starving, can still produce a healthy baby, because it draws from her store of resources, including body fat. It's also basically a 'set point' approach. Nothing new here, not to mention unnecessarily severe. I think I'll skip this one, folks. Still, I'm sort of glad I read it, if only to confirm for myself what I've heard about this guy."
+13488,2,one of prine's very best,"I love this collection of Prine's work.Prine, as always, simply clever,& pure genius on this album.I have & love lots of his albums(do they still call them albums!?),but this one is a real gem.I play it all the time, I like every song on it.I'd say it was my favorite, but as Prine fans know,that's impossible to do (:"
+13489,2,I am ready to pack,I can't wait for travel magazines to come in the mail and I am really inspired by this magazine. It provides cultural awareness while sitting in my living room. I definitely want to visit places I read about. I can't wait until the next issue already.
+13490,2,Another Nas LP On My All Time Favorite!,"Cant say anything bad about this drop, nothing but props for the mad lyricism. Another Nas Album on my all time faves, just listen to Rewind carefully and youll be hooked, Jay Z cant even be put up close to this nigga, when he hits back with Ether and puts him ablaze with with invisble flames. I feel this album, get it and support the Lyricly Gifted."
+13491,2,BEST CD EVER!,"I could listen to this CD over and over again without interuption for the rest of my life. Every song captivates your mind and soul. Greatly recommended to anyone and everyone out there, no matter what genre of music you listen to normally."
+13492,1,Cheap swithces,"When I first started buying these switches they were a much finer quality than the last ones (the ones I am reviewing now). The new switches, although they appear the same on the exterior, the click sound they emit when switching on/off is annoyingly cheap sounding and the feel of the switch when switching on/off also feels cheap. Maybe that is why the original place I was buying the switches stopped carrying them."
+13493,2,Very good corer.,"This apple corer works great. It is very well manufactured, and does what it is intended to do - core apples."
+13494,1,Standard Problems Presented in a Mediocre Fashion,"This book offers a nice set of pretty standard undergraduate to first year graduate problems in solid state physics. The answers, unfortunately, are sloppy and remarkably lack the detail you would expect from a question and answer book. Each chapter has a superficial and not too insightful introduction to the topic before asking the questions. Probably, most disappointing are the problems for which there are no answers. Isn't this supposed to be a problem and answer book? If you are looking for an insightful solution guide or a general overview as a companion for an introductory solid state course, you don't want this book. If you just want to see a result and have some stuff to jot down on homework assignments, then perhaps this book is just what you need."
+13495,2,Awsome Holiday Collection,"Not your usual collection of various artists. I bought it for the Jim Brickman hit, The Gift. I was plesantly surprised by the content of this album and recommend it highly to those who like holiday music performed by contempory artists."
+13496,2,Good replacement battery,"Works just like the original battery in my APC BackUPS RS 800!The hardest part about installing this replacement battery was getting the battery cover off and on the bottom of the unit without disconnecting any cords. (It wasn't really that difficult.)I was able to hot-swap the battery without disconnecting anything (even left the UPS plugged into the wall outlet). Although, I did turn off my computer first - just in case. :)There was no return label to ship it back for recycling - they discontinued that process. But my local Staples store took the old battery without question."
+13497,2,The perfect iron!,This is the best iron I ever had. It works really well on all types of fabric. The cordless feature allows me to easily change hands and move freely. I always put it back on the charging dock and I never have to worry about it running out of battery.
+13498,1,Disappointment in the making,"To be honest, I bought this book for my brother in law and was really excited about it because he is a die hard duck hunter. He goes to Alaska for special trips at least once a year, and otherwise spends many hours perfecting his duck call and training his dog. But to be honest, the book was a disappointment. The writing accompanying the photos was mediocre at best. Disjointed and forced, the photos at least tried to create a story. But even the photos were not as entertaining as the review would lead you to believe. This book really deserves only two stars. It does look like a nice coffee table book, but after paging through the first few pages, I don't foresee many dying to finish it."
+13499,1,good idea poorly executed,"As a cold wrap it just doesn't get cold enough and the tie is not secure enough, a velcro fasten would have been much better."
+13500,2,"D-Day, The Climactic Battle of World War II","For anyone interested in getting real insight as to what it took to successfully invade France during WW2, this is the book. Ambrose takes all necessary attention to explaining the massive preparation that made invasion possible. While he misses none of the political and logistical points, he also manages to bring the reader on board the Higgens boats, C-17s, and gliders. The tension of those moments fills the reader. Ambrose never loses the notion that each man who fell had a life and wanted to keep it. A wonderful book. I have given four copies to friends as gifts. Three never before read historical non-fiction. All four have continued on to buy other books by this gifted writer."
+13501,1,Introspective of Jung; lacks in originality.,"The book has an interesting premise, and the reader is thrown a great many details about Jung's personal life. However, the editing is horrible. There is very little original thought by the author because 80% of the book is either excerpts of Jung's personal journal, or Lao Tzu's Tao Te Ching. The other 20% are phrases that poorly setup the quotation to follow. To give you an idea of how much he quotes (rather than interpreting and regurgitating), his references section consists of 19 pages."
+13502,1,KD 3253 Oil Filter Wrench,"I agree this item is a piece of junk. First time I tried to use it, the spot welded nut snapped off in my socket wrench. Just hope I can get my money back. I'll try another brand next time. Don't waste your time and money with the KD brand."
+13503,1,Spice World,I thought this move was not that great. I think that they give a not so good influence to kids. Look at what they wear. It's horrible. I don't think any kid should want to grow up to be like that.
+13504,1,Bad Quality,"This set Bluray DVD is not 16:9. The vedios don't look like Bluray quality at all. The only difference between this set and the regular DVD set is that you can play them on your Bluray player. Just don't expect true Bluray quality, though."
+13505,1,Stay AWAY! or SUFFER!,"I wouldn't touch this game with a ten thousand foot pole. I'm mad because I wasted 3 bucks renting it. I want the three bucks back. I should get paid to play this game it is so bad. This game is terrible. I'm sure glad that I didn't buy it. There is no story, no graphics, no nothing. It isn't a game, it is a virus that has somehow seeped into the playstation 2 market and infested it with the bad smell of a terrible and ruthless boring plague. Don't even look at this game. Avoid it at all costs. Whoever made this should pay you to play this game. I'm serious. I wouldn't play this game if I found it on the street. I would destroy it. It is that bad. NES games are ten times better. So stay away from this game."
+13506,2,"Powerful, raw fiction; not for the meek and timid.","Pure, powerful, hard-boiled mystery. I rate James Ellroy among the top 10 fiction writers in America. His later style is an acquired taste, kind of like Sauza Commemorativo served in a dirty shot glass. When recommended to friends, they either love it or don't get it. Once I began reading American Tabloid or White Jazz, I had bags under my eyes for a couple days. The non-fiction My Dark Places is as interesting and disturbing as the fiction."
+13507,2,Why are they not FAMOUS!!!!,"I first heard their song Arrepentido off Paradysso on PuroRock.com and I began my search. I had never heard of a spanish rock band named Sober and Trust me it was extremely difficult to find this cd. Back then no one had it not even amazon, so I had to place a special order @ Tower Records and of course they charged an arm and a leg for it. $26.99 plus tax is what I paid but it was worth it. Since that purchace I learned that they have several more albums but you can only find them in spain, Paradysso is the only one released in the US with a limited amount at that. Although this album is great, its (in my opinion) not their best and certainly not their heaviest; still I believe it is worthy of 5 stars. I found a few extra songs available for download at RockEstatal.com But as for buying other albums I think I'd have better luck flying to Madrid and getting it personally! If anyone has any info on this group get back to me nutty_unt@sbcglobal.net"

+13509,2,Yay Howard Shore. But where is Q. Lazzarus?,"You can't mess with the music of Howard ""Lord of the Rings"" Shore. My friend's college roommate used to play this soundtrack over and over to creep people out. It loses a star for the exclusion of Q. Lazzarus's ""Goodbye Horses,"" the song accomanying Buffalo Bill during his famous ""tuck"" dance. Please don't be mislead by numerous commentators on this page that claim this song is originally by Psyche. They did a poor cover version of it. The original is by Q. Lazzarus, and I believe it will be on the ""Clerks II"" soundtrack in a few weeks."

+13513,2,Stacy's Mom is pretty,"I think Fountains of Wayne is a good band and group. Stacy's Mom is really hot, and the song stacy's mom is really good! The last person who said that Fountains of Wayne sucks, sucks. Even though I'm only 10 he's a real idiot and I know what good music is."

In addition to hertop number one songs throught out the years, such as Independence Day, Broken Wing,Wild Angels, I love you and Valentine, you can also find four additional tracks, When God Fearin' Women Get The Blues, Where would you be, Concrete Angel, Blessed, which will become top hits in the near future.Great Work Martina!!! Keep entertaining us, all the best to you!!!"
+13515,1,Piece of junk - do not bother.,"I've been very disappointed with this since we got it. Even with the unit fully charged & operating with the cord plugged in, it struggles to keep up with normal hair cutting. It takes multiple passes to cut, what would have taken our last trimmer, a Norelco plug in model that lasted 8 years, one pass.Build quality: poor. Everything in the kit feels cheap.Too bad we held onto this past the 30 day return policy. Do not buy this trimmer."

+13517,1,worst book ever,"This summer, every time i went to the library i would look for Crispin and the Cross Of Lead. When i found it and read it honstly i thought it was one of the worst books ever writen! I don't want to give away the ending but the plot in the end is the worst one i've ever read! The whole time i was reading this book i was thinking; how could this book win any medal besides worst book on the face of the planet? In my opionion 0 stars would be an over-raiting of this book!"
+13518,1,dangerous,I gave this product a 1 because in the short time I've owned it and after the few times I used it the darn thing didn't shut off. It got so hot the cover melted to the base and would not come off. I had to throw the whole unit away. It was very dangerous and actually could have started a fire!I've had several egg cookers in the pass and none of them did this including the cheaper ones.thanks
+13519,1,Gives Satan too Much Power,"The author states ""it is my observation that no more than 15% of the evangelical community is completely free from Satan's bondage."" Satan is seen as an omnipresent force ready to invade Christians when they sin. The book uses case studies for support. In one case, a woman is demonized after praying that God would give her thorn in the flesh if that's what it took for His power to be perfected in her weakness. After the prayer, she experienced tingling sensations which the author concluded were due to invading demonic forces. Following a deliverance prayer, her symptoms were relieved. The point of the passage is that a sovereign God sent the messenger of Satan for a positive spiritual purpose in Paul's life and He refused to remove it. Anyone who has read this book should also read a dissenting evangelical perspective (e.g., The Stronghold of Grace which discusses the placebo effect in symptom relief) and make up their own minds."
+13520,2,Works very well with my Olympus printer,"Since I couldn't find this film in my city, I was very happy to have found it at Amazobn.com. There's a store in Kalamazoo, Michigan, that sells it, but it doesn't always have it in the right size.The last couple of times that I have used it, I fiound that the photo developing ink runs out before the paper runs out and also the paper doesn't want to come out of its container when printing."
+13521,2,A must read,"This is a superb nostlagic story of a boy and his childhood. It describes his beautiful village, his family and friends and many incidents which this boy has cherished for the rest of his life. The novel is touching and appeals to anybody crossing the limits of time."
+13522,2,Fascinating Contemporary Portrait of a Megacity,"While Venezuela's leader, Hugo Chavez, is frequently in the news, little is reported about life in the capital city of Caracas. This visual diary and commentary provides a fascinating contemporary portrait of the living conditions in Caracas. While squatter settlements, known as ""barrios"" in Venezuela, have been around for decades, the extent to which the formal, planned urban areas in Caracas have been surrounded and overtaken by the informal city is astonishing. In the 60's there were many ambitious plans to develop and redevelop major parts of the city, but these have, on the evidence presented here, not materialized. Instead, people have continued to migrate from the rural areas, drawn by the allure of the big city and the possibilities for a better life. Breathtaking."
+13523,1,One of the worst John Wayne films,"Well, I guess I'm out of step with most reviewers on this one. I'm a great fan of the Duke, but this is one of his worst films. I didn't buy the plot for a minute. The scenes between Lauren Bacall and Wayne show zero chemistry. Frankly, much as I love Bacall's early films, she never quite made the transition from alluring ingenue to fully adult actress. This film is Exhibit A as to why her career never made it to the heights it might have. I don't think Wayne's conversations with the invisible ""Baby"" work either. They are annoying and don't add anything to the film. Finally, I have no political objection to using Caucasian actors to play Asian parts. In this case, though, using such familiar faces as Paul Fix to play the Chinese villagers is a major distraction and detracts from the realism of the film. So, unless you are determined to watch every film the Duke made, I would say not to waste your time with this one when there are so many better films to watch."
+13524,1,humph!,I had to buy this one because the first one broke and it couldn't be repaired.RENT a paint sprayer and save yourself the trouble.
+13525,2,A compelling story,This one is great! The first I had read in the Knights of the Black Rose and it stood up to excellence.
+13526,1,......DISGUSTING AND A WASTE OF MONEY,"Well, I wish I had read some of the reviews here before I wasted my money. The hero is a dispassionate old lecher who decided to prove to an 18-year-old girl that he loved her by raping her. I didn't even make it to the gang rape or the adultery. Don't I feel like a silly goose. Who ever told Ms. Coulter that rape was the ""perfect"" tool of courtship should be, well, something! I mean really, if rape is your thing, who am I to quibble but they should really give a hint on the jacket or something, you know, a word to the wise, a wink and nod and I would just walk on by for pity's sake. I don't need this sort of filth ruining a romantic mood."

+13528,1,substandard,"The pictures in this book are unnacceptable. It's hard enough to distinguish MRI's that have good resolution, but these are completely garbage. And I have found at least 20 questions that are completely wrong. The book is outdated but some of the questions are helpful for studying. I'm just using this as extra studying material. The MIC and MRI in practice are much more accurate and helpful tools. This is not worth the money I spent!"
+13529,2,This one started it all!,"This was Lee Roy's first album on Arista... before all the hits: What Kind of Fool Do You Think I Am, Holding My Own, On The Road, Heart's Desire, etc., etc. It's got some great stuff on it... the horns, the diversity, Lee Roy's soulful from-the-gut delivery. It's a great album, and even after 16 years of fan-dom, still spends regular time in my car's CD player. ... even though ""Red Hot"" nearly cost me some hefty speeding fines! Check it out."
+13530,1,Minus 3,"The only thing that remotely saved this piece of tripe was some decent gravy. Costumes and cinematography were lush and creative. The story was almost worthy of the visuals, but the overall camp level was beyond Rocky Horror. And at least Rocky Horror can boast original music. Skip DVD rental, forget pay-per-view and even HBO. Make due with the sound track and make up your own movie from the jewel case art."
+13531,2,Perfectly simple for a great value,My husband wanted something simple and easy to wear. This was perfect! Great price too! I bought an expensive watch and this one & told him he could pick what he liked best. He chose this one!
+13532,1,worked great until it failed,"I needed more USB ports so I bought this device. It worked great for about 6 months. Now four of the seven ports do not work. I have rebooted and unplugged and tried different troubleshooting advice but still the front two ports and top two ports in the back do not work. The base is light and doesn't hold the port up but I can deal with that if the thing worked. I am going to trash this one and buy a different brand 7 port USB hub. Hopefully, I will have better luck next time."
+13533,2,Psychedelic at its very best,"I can only think of two bands that come close to Tomorrow. The Beatles (with ""She Said, She Said"" on Revolver in particular). And Pink Floyd's Piper at the Gates of Dawn. But Tomorrow's melodies are just better. And they're better musicians. It's not by chance that Steve Howe would later join Yes. If ""Revolution"" and ""The Incredible Journey of Timothy Chase"" are probably best-crafted songs, the other ones are still extremely good, and well performed. How could such a gem draw so little attention??? Well, it certainly has from me: if I was to keep only one album, it would be this one.The 1999 EMI remaster (with 23 songs total) sounds pretty good to me as well, it could have been recorded yesterday as far as I'm concerned - but it wouldn't be as good, would it?Not as ""weird"" as early Pink Floyd, or ""polished"" as the Beatles - you could say it's catchier, happier, stronger, louder... psychedelic at its best, simply - what am I saying? MUSIC at its best!"
+13534,1,Beware,"First of all the content adresses the subject well and it isuseful for someone in quantum electrodynamics. Similarinformation has been given in other books.HOWEVER.... I have to agree with the last reviewer. This bookseems to be a copy of the original book, even though cleanlydone ! ...outside cover cheaply printed on spine, no front print,inside pages are photocopies and not original quality pressprinting !!!! In all, it looks like a well done black market copyrather than an original Academic Press book.BEWARE of buying this version. Other sources might berecommended."
+13535,2,I love every song,"I hate that when you get an album because you like one song you heard on the radio and you're gambling that the whole cd will be just as wonderful. Every song on this cd is just great, really solid, consistent quality. This album has become an instant favorite."
+13536,1,Happiness means - blue collar love- only,"I just watched this movie~ it depressed me. Apparently if you are a successful /workaholic (but like it) and do something good to prevent an armed robbery (buy off the would be robber) ~ you still are not a decent guy. To be a decent guy, you have to move to blue collar suburbia - have no money- hate your job- have a nagging wife- bratty kids- and dim wit friends, THEN you're happy. This is pure Hollywood claptrap at its finest. Hello? Not all rich workaholics are monsters, some just like to work, don't want to get married, don't want kids~ tell me what is wrong with that?This movie was terrible and utterly depressing. Watch a Christmas Carol...there's a good movie, this one is awful."
+13537,2,Wow,"And I thought ""Midnight Express"" tore me up.This is a must-see. You will be pretty fried when it's all over, but it's well worth the emotional journey.Highly recommended."

An original idea for a funny novel. Unfortunately the book is a little bit to long, with many unnedeed secondary stories. Suggested to people who still believe UK is a great world empire!"
+13540,2,Delicious Secret Supper,"Well told back-story about Leonardo da Vinci's ""The Last Supper"". Javier Sierra capitalizes on the 20-year restoration of the painting (1976-96) as well as the widely published translations of Leonardo's notebooks. For the first time, we know which disciples are sitting where, and why. How light was used from Right-to-Left, and who served as models. Then, there is the message that Leonardo put into plain view for all to see. Or as Leonardo is attributed as saying, the best way to hide a secret is to put it in plain view. The story moves quickly and engulfs the reader into being on the scene as events unfold."
+13541,1,"I tried, I really tried to watch this ............ but","I really , really tried to watch this movie, but I just could not stand to watch much of it.I found it annoying to try and watch.Now that I am older, I appreciate movies about life's experiences ....films like THE STRAIGHT STORY, DOOR TO DOOR, etc ...But somehow this movie seemed to abstract, incohesive and ""artsy""It felt like well framed scenes pasted together in random fashion but the sum of the parts ended up less than the whole.Rather than get pulled in and compelled to watch, it was more of an effort to watch to the point it simply was not worth the effort -------- no care or concern for the characters at all.After a few attempts, I simply could not tolerate more than 30 minutes of it.The 2 people watching it with me were of the same opinion.Beautifully filmed scenes, but it just never came together as a compelling story.The background DRONING monotone music and heavy repetitive pedal points also were annoying"
+13542,1,Wallace-an unbalanced view,An entertaining read but more opinion than fact based. Plenty of references but even more conjecture and supposition. Was Wallace so virtuous and Edward so evil? I don't think so. A book written to support the author's point of view with very little objectivity. The writing style is at times difficult to follow with events being related out of sequence or seemingly unrelated to the points being made...this is hardly a scholarly work. There must be better books on this subject....
+13543,2,Yeah Underdog - fun for kids and their grownups,I actually bought this tape as a fun gift for my husband. We've often spoken of watching this show as children. He thought it was fun but it was our children who are hooked on it now. It's classic good versus evil but without the blooshed and nastiness of today's shows. The good guy wins and the bad guy loses and the hero is not perfect as evidended by his constantly flying into airplanes etc. Not to mention he takes his vitamins! The fact the a woman in the late 60s had a respected reporter job is nice too! Have fun with it and enjoy the memories!
+13544,1,Just a list of sources not good soild information,"For those of you who are looking for a book that will give you a lot of information about this condition this is not it.

How about someone who has been working with computers for the past 18 years and knows their way around Windows very well. Again, forget it! Windows 7 support...NOT EVEN! Web support that makes sense?? HAH! What a bunch of clowns. This stuff should be completely plug and play by now, but they are holding on so tight to their proprietary technologies that Digidesign just can't let go and allow the end user to have a fun musical experience. Instead, we're spending hours and days trying to get this POS up and running. Please wake me when this company arrives in this millennium. Thanks."
+13547,2,"Brilliant, but only just","This is the master at work, no doubt. Not many authors have the skill and expertise to handle more than one sub-plot and to do it so beautifully. The size of the book would intimidate a lot of people, but I would advice you to pick it up and read. It is quite educational - ebola virus, iranian politics etc. Good Read!!"
+13548,1,"cheap knock-off of movie ""Boiler Room""","The author is no F. Scott Fitzgerald, and this book will never be considered for the Pulizer, or any other major literary award. This is one case where the movie was better than the book. The movie ""Boiler Room"" may have been plagiarized in this novel; simply change the names from New York and Long Island to Tokyo and Kobe and you have most of the same story: some people involved with finance are corrupt. You're probably better off buying the book, ""When Genius Failed : The Rise and Fall of Long-Term Capital Management"" by ROGER LOWENSTEIN."

+13551,2,Black Hawk Down,"I read this book last spring, but I intend to read it again after the attack on the WTC. The events in this book could easily happen during a campaign in Afghanistan. With the help of Mr. Bowden, I felt that I was the streets fighting with our soldiers. Those who read this book now can understand what a dirty, but necessary, job our troops are facing."
+13552,2,Fantastic MPB and Bossa Nova,"I cannot believe it took me this long to ""discover"" this CD. It is remarkable with terrific tracks and a seemingly natural flowing feel about it. From the opening track, you are transported to Brazil and have the feel of the music and the inspiration of the new movement and the next generation of Brazilian musicians and stars.The biggest standout track to me is Joyce's ""Aldeia de Ogum"". It displays her range and the shows how she could use her voice as an instrument just like the other top divas of Sarah Vaugh and Flora Purim. Other notable artists were Edu Lobo, Marcos Valle, Eumir Deodoto and Milton Banana Trio.After giving it a listen, you wonder why Sergio Mendes version of Ponteio wasn't included. But it doesn't stop you from enjoying it. I recommend this CD."

+13556,2,A beautiful set and great customer service,"I made more than a hundred searches on the Internet, comparing scores of sets before I chose these. I did not choose them because of the low price, but because of the beauty of the set. Unlike the customer who did not like the sizes of the pieces, I find the pieces to be perfectly proportioned.The tablespoons in the first set that was shipped to me had what appeared to be a machine made scratch across the handles. Almost immediately after I notified them of the problem, Amazon sent me an E-mail informing me that they were shipping a replacement set. Unfortunately, the tablespoons in the replacement set had the same problem--though to a lesser degree. So I sent the tablespoons to Oneida, who sent me flawless tablespoons. I truly appreciate the terrific customer service that I received from both companies and am delighted with my Oneida Strauss flatware."
+13557,1,These hookers are as revolting as the rest of the cast,"What I'm refering to in the title of my review is that of the acting that is beyond terrible along with the budget of a cheap 20 dollar hooker(cheap digital camcorder).I really wanted to like this one,but wound up hating it.Boring,slow,and stupid make-up the format of this poop.I guess you would have to be so stoned that you were almost asleep to halfway enjoy 'Hookers in Revolt',as another reviewer(film dork) mentioned.How could he have watched this 4 times?????I smell something rotten.B.T.W Film Dork,none of the hookers even closely resembled Pam Grier.Wow!!!! you had to have been drunk too!"
+13558,2,My Best Christmas Gift,"This book was the best Christmas gift given to me. I have read and enjoyed Ms. Crist's Xena and Gabrielle stories and the web version of this book. The published version is even better; the plot tighter, the editing well done. I enjoyed the exciting legal mystery that is the central plot of this book, and the warm love story that develops very naturally and believably between Carson and Kennedy. It was a lot of fun to read about places in Texas too. I believe Ms. Crist is getting ready to start writing the sequel and I can hardly wait to read it."
+13559,1,boring!,"I ordered this dvd hoping to learn more about my favorite band; to have something that I could watch from time to time. However, this DVD is sooooo boring, I watched for maybe first ten minutes and I decided that it is completely waste of time. It is like you are watching documentary on subject that you have no interest in; I was expecting something lot more fun for a documentary about such a crazy rock band. I wish I could return this because it is totally waste of money.I do not like to write reviews because I don't want to misguide people- something that is boring to me may be very interesting to somebody else so I like to keep my opinions for myself- but I was so disappointed with this video that I just had to write something.5 stars for the amazon though- I ordered this DVD together with "" an oral/visual history by RHCP "" (great book by the way), shipping was super fast!!"

+13564,1,2008 Edition is Outdated,"We were in New York July 2010. Access guidebooks are my favorite, however the 2008 edition for New York City is outdated. I gave the 2 star rating because the current edition is outdated. We were disappointed more than once to find our destination out of business. Be sure to call ahead to verify any place you want to visit, especially in SoHo and the Village, if you are using the 2008 edition. Wish I had just used my old one and not purchased the ""new"" one. If you have never used an Access Guidebook, you definitely need to be introduced to them. Current editions are invaluable. Organization and information are both wonderful."
+13565,1,helen hunt is like a piano with one key,"From the beginning of the movie, to about three-quarters of the way through, when I ejected it--I kept telling myself ""it's got to get better""--it never did. There wasn't a single character that ""grabbed me""--and at least two that finally caused me to push the eject button.Does Helen Hunt ever play a role where the audience isn't glaringly aware that it's Helen Hunt on the screen? She whines and chews her way through every line of dialogue until the hair on my arms stands on end. She never deviates: A Good Woman and Then She Found Me--these are very different movies--you'd think she'd do something different with the characters (to fit the time and the place in which the story takes place). I've made a pact with myself--no more movies with Ms. Hunt. This one was the last."
+13566,2,Awesome Music...,"All right, this is an awesome piece of music to own. The beats and the melodies just go together beautifully. I'll warn you though, just because you may like Aphex Twin doesn't mean you'll like this. They have 2 very different styles of music. If your an aphex twin fan you may be better off buying more AFX cd's from warp records. If you already own some of Mu-Ziqs albums and not this one, then you need to buy it. It is by far the best I've heard by Mike Paradinas."
+13567,1,A Children's Movie With Racist Comments,"This movie, while entertaining, has a racist theme. The phrase ""cracker lackin"" is uttered again and again. Can you imagine the contoversy, if this were an equivilent racial slur against black, or any non-white race of people? I suppose that ""cracker lackin"" means ""a place without white people,"" because of the context that it is used in. Because of its repeated use, I have deducted two stars. I deducted one more because the movie was not as entertaining as the original."
+13568,2,I have bad allegries and the pain doesn't start until i step outside,"Louisville is the second worst city in the US for allergies and this has been the worst spring season for allergies in a long time, but my home has been my safe haven because of this purifier. I do not recommend the seller though. I origanally purchased it from the seller on this site they immediately charged my credit card and notified me that my item was ready to ship, but a week later when I still hadden received the item nor a tracking number I sent them an email asking for one and they replied that this item was backordered. The next day I checked back on Amazon and the seller still had it listed as in stock! I canceled my ordered and ended up buying it from Kaz, and I even got it a little bit cheaper."
+13569,2,The Razor Edge Book of Sharpening,Very nice and useful book. A little bit of theory and detailed sections for each tool. I'll recommend it.
+13570,1,Wuthering Heights,Looked like a pirated copy. Looked like it was taped off TC then transferred to a a DVD. I returned it.
+13571,2,Great History of the Middle East,Mrs Albright has a strong grasp of Middle Eastern history as well as Islam. A good quick read by a very moderate voice.
+13572,1,Not what I expected,"Didn't get good suction with the blaster, even tried changing to the smaller size cup. No change in drains noted."
+13573,2,Powerful and enchanting,"This was one of the best books that I have read in a long time. Well, since her last one anyway! Jamie and Brighid will steal your heart and bring tears to your eyes. Pamela Clare has written a truly touching, emotional and amazing novel. I felt swept along on a current of grand adventure and intrigue. The secondary characters melted my heart and had me cheering for them till the very end.This is a very, very well done book ripe with heart and history. There's no wall-paper history here! You are immersed in the culture and lore of old Ireland in a beautiful and real way.Thank you Pamela Clare for such a fabulous story. If your looking for a book that will reside in your heart long after you've read the very last line, look no further. This is a must buy everyone. You will not be disappointed."
+13574,2,The BEST Weezer album of all,"Out of the 4 Weezer albums PINKERTON is definately the best. They greated matured in sound without losing what we all love about them: their Pixie-influenced pop sound and humor.Like the Blue Album, PINKERTON starts off great with ""Tired of Sex,"" then procceds to rock you even more with great numbers like ""Why Bother?,"" ""Across the Sea,"" ""El Scorcho,"" and Pink Triangle. For me this is NIRVANA (the place not the band).For all those people who have only heard the bad Weezer that is the Green Album and MALADROIT I suggest you give them one more chance and listen to PINKERTON and the Blue Album"
+13575,2,Handy little item,"I love it that this is stainless and enamel. It works well although sometimes you need to quarter your lemons rather than halve them if they are large. Otherwise they don't fit in the squeezer. Pops in the dishwasher, easy to clean. Seems very sturdy."
+13576,1,What a pity,Thankfully I only paid [money] for this cd single. The original edit is the only decent version on the cd and that only goes for 4 minutes. Why do they pay dj's to remix these songs when the remixes are awful and the original in infinitely better. I think dj's have stopped trying and just put out any rubbish for cd fillers. My advice would be don't buy this until you have listened to it first.
+13577,1,writing gets in the way of the story,"I only started reading this book yesterday and was excited to read it as I'm very interested in spirit connection and miraculous happenings.However, last night after reading it in bed and as I turned off the light, I said to my husband, ""this author's writing style is getting in the way of the story."" Several of the reviews raved over her crafting of words to tell a story, but I honestly found them contrived and over the top. But maybe that's the point, her entire existence was admittedly trying too hard... but for me her overly-crafted prose sounds schmaltzy and irreverent.I want the story to bring me along, sweep me up and take me away - not cause me to have another conversation in my head about how the words have been strung together. It kind of defeats the whole point of reading!"
+13578,1,Confusing,"I read this book because I wanted to learn more about the books available to pre-teens and teens. Also, because I expected to learn something about how the genre of problem books came into being. I found Ms. Feinberg's book to be confusing. It was not a discussion of the problem novel. Rather it was one woman's wandering and confusing monologue on her life - current and past - and her vague unease with the books her 12 year old son was reading. It did not provide any true information on the issue, only her subjective view of it. Despite the fact that she is a writer and runs a ""writer's workshop"" for children, she apparently never bothered to confront the school regarding her concerns. Instead, she wrote a book. I gave up half way through."
+13579,2,Durable Faucet,We have had this faucet installed for 5 years and it has worked great. The fact that you could adjust where the lever handle went (put on right or on left) during installation is a nice feature. The finish has held up very well and the pull-down spray has always stayed in place.I'd highly recommend this faucet.
+13580,2,"Great Quality, wouldn't recommend any other!","The quality of this necklace was superb! I wear it with both pieces, and it looks really unique, not to mention better than anyone else's yin-yang necklace. Plus you can split in in half to share with someone else.Only down side is that if you want to share it you have to by two new necklace strings because of the make of the original string is leather, has no clasp, and has two knots in the back that you slip around to adjust the length.Love it though!"
+13581,1,DRM infected,defectivebydesign and drm infected...Now Mac users can share the pain and frustration of PC gamers with this offering by EA. Please don't buy this product and give your money to a game manufacturer that respects customer's privacy and Fair Use rights!
+13582,1,dried up,Clay was repackaged and dried out. It was completely unusable. Sent in a request for return with no response. I will not buy anything from them again.
+13583,2,Riders of Rohan,"This toy is personally one of my favorites!His face is really detailed like he was acctualy fighting.He comes with a sword,a sheild,a spear with extension,a removeable helm(helmet),and a green cape.I like to make him fight my Uruk-hai.THIS IS 1 OF THE BEST!!!!!!!!!!!"
+13584,1,Worth it for the money......,"....since it was free. The filter does not appear to have any coatings, it flares and does cause a noticeable reduction in image contrast. I use this only where a protection filter is needed, where there is a spalsh hazard or sand/grit/flying debris in the air. Outside of those situations, be sure to remove this filter before shooting."
+13585,1,"Read the Real thing,He's so much better than this tripe.","Just discovered this over the christmas holidays whilst looking for something to read. (small resort town with not much to choose from and I'd finished all I'd bought with me).If you haven't read any Sherlock Holmes then please (I implore you) charge into his adventures. This politically correct and frankly tedious book is not a patch on the Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's wonderful adventurer's (Holmes and Watson). First off,nothing happens. A good portion of the book wandering about the desert in a woman's head with the odd description of Sherlock Holmes does not a great mystery make. If anything good has come out of this it's that I'm off to reread the originals."
+13586,1,Days Gone By,Unless you're a new viewer of Days you won't enjoy the music. I was disappointed. Theme music from late 1997 and 1998. Enjoyed the opening and closing themes. I enjoy the love themes from 80's better. The picture of the cast on back is nice.
+13587,2,Great tool,"I was torn between the Jet and this unit - especially after reading the reviews about the Delta unit getting broken in transit on more than one occasion. I figured that everyone seemed happy IF it arrived in one piece, so I took a chance. Happily, mine came in unscathed. Set up was quick and easy and in no time, I had made my first mortise with it. I have yet to really put it through its paces, but so far, I love it."
+13588,1,Least Favorite of the Series,"I believe they have run out of material. The story line and scenes were not believable. I have enjoyed the previous Diehard movies and have copies of them. But this one I have no desire to keep. Although there is a lot of action, it did not live up to expectations."
+13589,2,Wonderfully Silly Story!,This is a delightfully silly book with wonderful wacky illustrations about a girl who turns into a chicken. A perfect book for those just learning to read.
+13590,1,it got one star because I can't read it without buying it,well i already typed a review above so why are you asking me to type another one. For this outrage I will take another star off of my review and never write another review
+13591,2,Pretty Good Book,"This book was good it WAS INTERESTING AND KEPT MY ATTENTION. Some of the book was just a little to ""fake"" or tv like but other than that it was good a very fast read and will hold your interest."
+13592,1,Waste of Time,Don't bother with this book. It reads like the script of a bad made-for-television movie. The dialogue is implausible and the story boring. I wouldn't recommend this book to anyone.
+13593,1,Stay Away,"I purchased this for my wife to begin her sewing escapade. She used it for a few times and it ended up breaking...unfortunately, when it broke, it was after the warranty was already expired. The repair shop wanted over $100.00 to fix it, so not even worth it. I'd buy something a bit higher up..."
+13594,2,Good fan,"Ok so this fan has 3 settings, I have it constantly running on it's highest (loudest) setting and I can't hear it at all. I sit about 2 feet away from my computer so it's not that I'm far away from it. I'm currently using it as a side fan but I'm planning on getting two more to replace my existing fans.It runs very smooth, has more than decent airflow, keeps all my components cool enough and was extremely easy to install. The price is also really good. I guess the only bad thing is, it wasn't free?I would definitely recommend this product to a friend but not to a foe if you catch my drift."
+13595,1,"Interesting History, but Inconclusive Theory","I got a lot of great information from this book, but the overall theory that George Washington was a deeply religious man was inconclusive. The authors presented evidents that can surely be interpreted multiple ways. The presentation was a little too informal for my taste too. The Novaks used a great amount of primary resources, but presented it in a many of an underaged school report. I believe that is just how George Washington would have wanted it in the end though. I don't believe George Washington was an aethist and clearly he writes on regular occassion about God and the importance of freedom of religion. However, his personal feelings don't necessarily shine through because he was such a private man and took measures to protect his privacy. We will never truley know the answer to George Washington's personal views on religion and our first President is likely very satisfied at that!"
+13596,1,SGreview,"I found this book to be very disappointing. I felt like I was reading a college term paper. The pictures look like they are very low quality and printed off a personal printer. It has font that is very large, I suspect to make it have more pages. The information was decent, just not what I expected. The author seemed to just quote from ""O"" magazine and talk shows, so it seemed like the book did not have much depth to it. It was not worth the price."
+13597,1,do not buy this item,"item was near splashing water, never submerged and got water moisture in left lens within first 30 minutes of use. so much for being water proof. product also says it floats, based on false waterproof claim, i would recommend not seeing if it floats! do your self a favor any purchase a different brand. horrible!"
+13598,1,These are great.,"Not the ""thermal"" feel it's claiming. Not terrible socks, but it's more like a towel texture inside. I probably will not buy these again."
+13599,1,Horrible,Doesnt work. I threw it in the Garbage after a week. It varies day by day and never consistent. Dont waste your time.
+13600,2,mundi wallet,Very excited to get the mundi wallet...nice size holds all my cards. Very good buy..could tell my friends about the great bargain.
+13601,1,Mr Murray,Quite a disappointing product i bought it to use with my laptop as it has bluetooth and only to find out it cannot connect with my model and after spending 10 on an adaptor for the charger (as i live in england) i cannot use it.
+13602,1,Meh,"Trying to bandage my cat is like trying to keep cooked spaghetti in a straw. She gets out of this in about 2 minutes flat. It is good and sticky, though, so if a pet can't reach it....."
+13603,2,Wow!,This game is great. At first it was very cofusing but now I'm older. This is a great game for boys or girls. I would reccomend it for the ages 9-13. It was a great game and still is. I would reccomend you buying it.
+13604,1,color was incorrect,"I ordered these sheets in 3 sizes, king, full and twin in the color Plum. All 3 sets stated the color was Plum on the tags but all 3 sets were a completely different shade of purple. The color ranged from dark, reddish, purple to a very light lavendar; they weren't even close.Since I needed them to match, I returned them right away. The return process was easy which is why I gave it 2 stars instead of one."
+13605,2,A Must-Read for Punctuation Sticklers,"I never thought I would laugh out loud reading a book about grammar and punctuation, but Lynne Truss has caused me to do just that! As a self-confessed ""stickler,"" I had been looking forward to the publication of this book in the United States, and was not disappointed. For anyone who is dismayed at the lack of proper grammar and punctuation in all areas of writing today, this book is a must-read. For people who don't really know any better (as is obvious from their reviews on Amazon.com,) this book is a waste of time and a bore. I am buying this book for friends and loved ones in order to share the message!"
+13606,2,Great Router,This router is extremely fast and has a great range. We have 11 guys hooked up to this router with great internet speeds. We were having problems with our linksys wireless-g (went through 2 linksys routers in 2 years) and decided to try D-Link. So far I have been very impressed. Hopefully we dont have to replace this one after a year.
+13607,1,Botched Bierce,"As a writer planning to adapt some Bierce stories for film, I was curious about how this one was done. Most films are products of their time, and this one screams 'dated.' The music is horrible but typical TV show over the top stuff, and the uniforms are atrocious since the '70s were not known for their authenticity to detail in anything historical!Mainly, the story is dulled by changing Bierce's ending,(I won't spoil it) and adding a silly storyline that tries to create backstory on the main character but instead just slows everything down into too many flashbacks.I understand Tony Scott did a version, but I cannot find a way to get a copy. It can only be a 100% improvement over this sorry effort."
+13608,1,Would be nice if I'd gotten an issue,It's been approx 6 months and I haven't gotten a single issue. First time not happy on Amazon. Hopefully they will fix the problem so other people won't go through this.
+13609,1,Interesting but NOT ACCURATE...,"The author offers a lot of very interesting information about the early days with the Mystic Knights, but beware...there is a lot of incorrect information here. Breese is incorrect about band members' credits and even the titles of films they've scored. It makes one wonder if other information is also wrong. Don't get excited about the number of pages either. A lot of it is wasted on the author's boring opinions and descriptions of his favorite songs."
+13610,1,This is not the poem I know,What the description doesn't tell you is that this is an abbreviated version of The Night Before Christmas. Close to half the original lines have been discarded and what's left makes for a very brief and disappointing read if you are familiar with the classic poem.
+13611,2,Great for removing hair,This product really works for removing hair--but my cats still hate it and run every time I get it out.
+13612,2,Housekeeping by M Robinson,"There are a couple of observations that I'd make about this book: if you're looking for a gripping story, this ain't it. If you're looking for mastery of prose and a philosophical eye, this is it. Marilynne Robinson is an incredibily gifted writer, and the process/flow of this novel is exceptional. In some ways this book reminds me of Agee's A Death in the Family: nothing much happens that's extraordinary, but the mundane is bejeweled by the poetic eye Agee turns on the world. If you think Agee wrote a great novel, then this one's for you.As for the discussion about mental illness and transients. There's been a lot written in the last 40 years about the cultural underpinnings that define ""abnormal"" behavior. Maybe it says more about the reader that the reaction to the characters is one of categorization (and possible dismissal)....whereas others might be dazzled by the characterizations-- as an end in itself."
+13613,2,Good for Starts...,For a beginner it was a great book to start. The actual programming examples are very helpful. but does not go in great depth of advanced Visual Basic techniques.
+13614,2,Great for kids and adults!,"I grew up watching Alvin & the Chipmunks cartoons, so when I saw this I bought it as much for me as for my son. My 3 year old son absolutely loves it, especially the Wolfman one. It is one of those dvds that I don't mind watching with him. Both movies are much better quality than the old t.v. show, but they are still the same old Chipmunks! I would totally recommend this to any Chipmunk fan young or old."
+13615,1,Worst physics textbook yet!,"This book is highly unorganized, important concepts are all over the chapters. The illustrations are bad, distracting and most of the time, not descriptive. But the worst thing is at the end, some review questions and exercises require students to know some equations that are never touched in the book; some questions require you to know some Algebra 2 level stuff and some concepts are not taught."
+13616,1,VERY Disappointing!,"I'm 99% sure that I purchased a knock-off ""chi"" flat iron. When I received it, I found that the cord connection was faulty, but I thought it may be a new safety feature - that the iron shut off automatically when the cord spun around (in case it fell off of a countertop onto the floor, for instance). This problem has gotten progressively worse and now it's hard to find a single cord position where the iron will stay ""on."" It takes me twice as long as it should to straighten my hair because the iron turns off in the middle of each stroke. I've only had this iron for three months - my last chi lasted for almost 5 years. In addition, the ""chi"" label on the iron is scratching off. I would NOT buy this again. VERY disappointing."
+13617,1,Batman - The Movie Review,But this for my kids and it was the most boring movie I have ever watched.The shows are more entertaining to watch then the movie.
+13618,2,Useful and detailed information for caring for your Miata,"Written ably by an experienced mechanic and Miata fan, this fine book will provide you with plenty of useful and clear information for maintaining and jazzing up your sweet little Miata.Highly recommended."
+13619,1,ironed well but lasted only 10 months before dying. . . .,I liked the way it ironed but it should last longer than 10 months. I do alot of ironing but still feel an iron should last longer.
+13620,2,very romantic Jane Austen Classic,sense and sensebility;I did not expect to like this series.Because I am hooked onEmma Thompsons movie.But it took me with suprise.I actually enjoyed it.I have watched it twice already and will watch it again many times.this series is more detailed which is good.Persuasion;I was suprised how much I liked it especially Anne.she is great and her lover is very handsome indeed!They look at each other so lovingly.very much romantic.Dont like the kissing at the end though.They didnt have open lip kissing then I dont think/.it takes away the romantism.anyway.lovely movie.I will watch it again for sure.
+13621,2,Very handsome shoes,"My husband fell in love with these shoes but couldn't find this exact color in his size in other stores. When I finally found them on Amazon for such a great price, we snatched them up immediately. These shoes are very nice and also very comfortable. They look good with almost anything; you can dress them up or down and look fashionable. My husband is very picky with his shoes, and comfort is a must for him. If you have a hard time finding shoes that fit your style and comfort, these may be the ones for you."
+13622,2,Great sixties pop-rock!,"Featuring the gorgeous, powerful singing of Spanky McFarlane, (Why do women singers now sound so wimpy?) Spanky and Our Gang had a great sound and some great songs. Sunday Will Never Be The Same, Lazy Day, Sunday Mornin' and Like To Get To Know You are true gems from the sixties."
+13623,1,Disappointed,"Soon after I purchased this product, the On/Off switch began to malfunction. It worked intermitently for awhile and then quick working altogether."
+13624,1,"Junk software, please don't buy.",This is an piece of junk software.Problems started with installation. It took two times clean installation to bring up the software and it keeps crashing.PLEASE DONT BUY this software.I do not what to do with the software.PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE ............. Don't buy this software.
+13625,1,Not worth it,These books are overpriced copies of the Improvised Munitions Handbook published by the Department of the Army in 1969. The publisher has split the manual into two parts and charges 400% more than the complete manual itself that you can get for between $5-$7 almost anywhere. Do not buy this book!!! Everything contained in Volumes 1 and 2 are straight from the Improvised Munitions Handbook. Get that instead.Improvised Munitions Handbook: TM 31-210 Department of the Army Technical Manual
+13626,2,I'm not good at writing reviews so...,"I'm going to make this short.This is a good collection of songs (IMO).Upon 1st listening, ""will you smile again?"" kind of threw me off about a minute and 27 seconds in (b/c it changes so drastically), but after that initial listen, it was all good. I have been listening to this thing non-stop for about a week. I love it..."
+13627,1,Just not my cup of tea,"This is the kind of movie everyone always thinks I'm going to like, because ""it's just so wacky, with these really crazy characters!"" But I didn't think these characters were funny. They just seemed like cliches, cliches of wacky, off-the-beaten-path sorts of people. Predictable cliches, like Napoleon's brother being astounded that his grandma gets annoyed at paying for his hours of internet chat time. Napoleon's constant rudeness was really annoying and off-putting, and I didn't see what was funny about him saying ""sweet"" or ""gosh"" or ""idiots!"" all the time.The only two funny parts for me were: when the farmer shoots the cow in front of the kid-filled school bus, and Uncle Rico's reaction when Napoleon pelts his van with a grapefruit.I'm 36 so I think maybe I'm just too old to get this. Maybe it's like ""Repo Man"" was for my generation, I don't know. I liked ""Repo Man,"" but ""Napoleon Dynamite"" was just not doing it for me."
+13628,2,Must own for grillers,"For camping or tailgaiting, this grill is great. Cooks like a Weber, durable and easy to use. All the things you want in a grill. Plus, full support from Weber for parts and service."
+13629,2,My dog loves it!,"I bought this so that my puppy would be more comfortable in his kennel and he loves it! Sometime I catch him lingering by his kennel like he wants to lay down in it, but he doesn't out of fear he will be locked into his kennel (lol). The bed is very plush and soft and fits perfectly into the kennel. The only downside to this product is that is sheds a lot when you wash it."
+13630,2,Perfect crate does not exist but good trade off,"Recently purchased since this is a back up primarily for travel and because the puppy is a laid back mini aussie (I hope - time will tell). Otherwise, the metal gage would not be strong enough. I had a 36"" Titan Crate I purchased from Costco last year for another dog I fostered, and the quality was much better (sold it). I used to lay a heavy fleece pad on top of the crate and use it for storage of toys, etc., but no way on this one. The Titan is $80 (comes with nice crate pad so really about $55). That was a consideration but the number one reason I did not purchase another was because it is too heavy for me to move around by myself (twice the weight). This one is a breeze but the reviewer that said handle can break is correct - one side fits great and the other by the door is too thick so just a matter of time. Amazon does have best price for this crate in the store or online."
+13631,2,"It's 2112, do I really need to review it?","If you like Rush, you will love this album. IMO one of their classics, I've owned it on vinyl, cassette, and CD (which my kids ruined). If you don't, you probably aren't reading this review anyways!"
+13632,1,I do not recommend this book,"I borrowed this book from the library and brought it to work to read to my class. I teach 4 year olds. They were not impressed with this book and honestly, neither was I. We read along as we listened to the tape....it is written with broken English which makes it very confusing. It's hard to understand what is being said. My class grew very bored after just a few minutes. I would never read it again."
+13633,1,Useless book with bad layout,"This book does have some above average photos. If that's what you want, then you should get it. THe layout of the book makes the book useless. Repeated most of the knowledge you already knew.Dont waste your money like me. It's an useless book."
+13634,2,An absolute page turner,"This book by jon is just cool. Being a college stud, I don't find much time to read books out of my regulars, but after buying this book, I couldn't just stop reading it till the end, I hope Jon would produce more good books such as this one. Just awesome, good job Jon."
+13635,2,Great Holocaust Memoir,"What separates this book from the other holocaust books is that it does a great job of focusing on life AFTER the holocaust. Kitty Hart spends time in displaced persons camps in Europe, then settles in England only to face a new set of challenges. Her return trip to Auchwitz allows her an opportunity to reflect on life in the death camp, but from the perspective an older individual who can comment on how life in the camp has affected her adult life.Return to Auchwitz is one of the better holocaust books I have ever read, written by a very brave and admirable woman."
+13636,1,I'm Hearing 'Blah Blah Blah',"All I hear coming out of Britney's mouth is blah blah blah and crap*y, meaningless music. Here's why:'...Baby One More Time'-her voice is annoying and computer generated, as usual'(You Drive Me) Crazy'-SHE drives me crazy (in a negative way)!'Sometimes'-1 of 3 good songs on hereSoda Pop'-keyword: pop'Born to Make You Happy'-if you want a good version of this song, listen to 'Tribute to Britney Spears'. Better voice singing HER song!'From the Bottom of My Broken Heart'-she sounds desperately sick'I Will Be There'-1 of 3 good songs on here'I Will Still Love You'-1 of 3 good songs on here'Thinkin' About You'-boring'E-Mail My Heart'-stupid'The Beat Goes On'-the way she sings it and the beat don't go togetherSo, as you can tell, this album [disappoints]! The only songs I recommend are 'Sometimes', 'I Will Be There', and 'I Will Still Love You'. The rest, SKIP!"
+13637,2,Hilarious back there and then.,"I remember this film from the cinema. A tremendous sense of joy, crazy laughter and carefreeness(is there such a word?). It was the sum of a number of large and small parts. Barbara Streisand, of course, in sexy/funny days. Madeline Kahn; hanging on to the doorman's leg, being dragged through the banquet. Lot's of almost cameos, guy with golf clubs, revolutionary, Hotel Burglar, Crooked Manager etc.. Ryan O'Neal was there as well.I sat with my sons(of 13 & 15) and they did enjoy it. Luckily I hadn't hyped it up beforehand.Remember those screwball movies ? Maybe it only works after we forget.Sometimes, you just have to remember the first feelings of the time. I'll still keep it securely amongst my possessions. Maybe my son's children will discover it and those first feelings will be passed on.A DVD and a feeling worth having. Don't expect it all to return in a instant though, if you have memories of the time."
+13638,2,Good but I've heard better,"Ok, so I love the CD, but I've watched the VHS over and over and later ordered the CD hoping for the same. It was great and I know it doesn't have the same performers, but the tempo is way to slow! I loved the fast, action, suspence that's found in the Video. I'm a little disappointed. I know the creators of the Disc could have made a better recording. I still give credit to the wonderful work that is givin on the CD."
+13639,2,Good. As described,"I bought it because the great reviews from other user. I brought it to a trip to Mali, nothing went wrong, views are good. Satisfied with what I got."
+13640,2,Blakey's first great quintet,"It's always wonderful to hear live-recordings from Birdland, and here really everybody plays fantastically. Of course, much has been written about the contributions of Clifford Brown, Lou Donaldson and Horace Silver, who are all together here, so this time let's praise Curly Russell, the bassist. He's something like an unsung hero of the bebop-era and shouldn't be overlooked, because he's doing a great job walking steadily behind those really fast soloists. I'm sure, that all bebop-fans will enjoy this record."
+13641,1,"NOT APPROPRIATE FOR KIDS!!! SEX JOKES, PROFANITY,SIMULATED N","THE GRINCH MUST HAVE WRITTEN IT, AS IT IS FULL OF SEX JOKES, SIMULATED NUDITY AND BARELY BLEEPED OUT PROFANITY. THE ACTING IS THE WORST YOU WILL EVER SEE. MIKE MYERS IS DOING A DEAD ON IMPRESSION OF THE COWARDLY LION, BUT IS WASTED HERE. DAKOTA'S ACTING IS GREAT BUT SHE IS WORKING IN A VACUME. THE FILMMAKER'S MUST HATE KIDS AS IT IS WILDLY INAPPROPRIATE FOR THEM. IT IS NOWHERE NEAR THE QUALITY OF THE GRINCH WHICH WAS NO MASTERPIECE.THE PHOTOGRAPHY IS TERRIBLE, WITH THE ACTORS ALWAYS DEAD CENTER IN THE MIDDLE OF THE PICTURE.WHAT A MEANSPIRITED TREATMENT OF THE MATERIAL. NO LAUGHS HERE EITHER."
+13642,2,Another winner,"I was not disappointed. Stuart Woods continues to write excellent books, all worthy of becoming a movie. Keep the stories coming!"
+13643,1,BIG MISTAKE!,Buying this camera was a big mistake as it went bad within one month of extremely gentle and almost non-existent use!
+13644,2,A Masterpiece,"This Movie (American Beauty), deserved every award it received, and maybe even more. It tells the story of a ""typical"" suburban family, but shows the whole dark side of their life. Lester Burnham, played perfectly by Kevin Spacey, is a father and husband, and throughout the movie makes so many mistakes, which make us laugh, but in the end, it's all so emotional and you won't beleive what happens when it does. All I can say is... if you want to a true masterpiece, which only comes out every few years or so, American Beauty is a must-see on DVD, because the fatures are fantastic, also."
+13645,2,Solid construction,The unit is sturdy and very easy to install. Very simple and functional. Shelves hold a decent amount of weight and the clothes rods work well and do not sag. I would recommend.
+13646,2,As Described,"It came fast and in a proper shipping container so as not to damage the poster. Looks brand new, no bent corners or frayed edges. If you're considering buying this poster then go for it!"
+13647,2,So good I read it twice,A friend recommended this a few years back and decided to re-read!!! Just as good this time as well!! Must read
+13648,1,Horible Product,The item arrived with loose wiring in terminal ends. Upon plugging the item in to factory harness it introduced static into the system then promptly shorted out several fuses on the panel this event locted my stereo into a safe protect mode which I had to get unlocked. I do not reccommend this item. Consider replacing your factory unit with aftermarket and doing it the right way before wasting your money here.
+13649,1,"Like others have said, you get what you pay for","The width of the channel is too narrow to fit any of my men's watches. When we used it on one of my wife's watches with a narrower band that would fit the link remover, we found the overall construction too poor and difficult to use to be effective. We would return it, but it's not worth the hassle or shipping."
+13650,1,Lacks inspiration,"I found the Bridges of Madison County to be full of emotions and uncommonly well written. Each word was important and each feeling rang true. I liked it so well that I then went on to read all Waller's other books and found them all to be good, not all excellent but certainly good.This sequel feels like it was written as a compromise, by someone who didn't feel at all like getting into this story. This book totally lacks inspiration. I always felt as if the writer was being careful to be clear, but did not feel at all the feelings he was giving his characters. As well, a lot of the typical Waller expressions, such as ""last Cowboy"" and such, don't come off at all. They sound dated and don't succeed in instilling a mood. It almost feels as if this was a group effort. Overall a very disappointing read."
+13651,2,EXCELLENT!,"This book is a MUST for anybody who is dealing with MS or has a loved one who is dealing with MS. It explains all about the disease, its symptoms, medications, obstacles, fears, tears, and ultimately how love overcomes all. The author has her personal experience with MS and shares the difficulties and frustrations involved in even obtaining a diagnosis for this mysterious disease. Explains everything in layman's terms and there is even a glossary and an index of testing procedures that are routinely done to detect MS. I am very pleased with this purchase, as is my best friend who has MS."
+13652,2,GREAT item!,"This item is great! I have used it several times since I purchase it, and it has done a wonderful job. The only reason I am giving it 4 stars rather than 5 is because I have not tried to make pasta with it, not will I. I bought it to grind meat, so I can control and trim most of the fat, and it does that wonderfuly. I think I already made my money back with all that I have saved buying those expensive 'lean' ground beef/chicken/ turkey at the supermarket. I will say that I put through very little to no fat, so I don't know how this aparatus would react to tendons and such. I have not made sausages, but I have ground somewhat fatty (marbeled) cuts of pork and it has done great."
+13653,1,awful!,This product did not work at all. My child was covered with mosquitoes bites from head to toe. Big waste of money.
+13654,2,safe and secure,"In my 20's I had a very serious fall on black ice. Since then, anytime I knew there was going to be icy weather, or anytime there was melted snow that would freeze overnight, I was fearful of going out for anything. I've already used my Yaktrax this year, and I'm no longer afraid. I feel safe and secure and look forward to stepping out. THEY'RE GREAT!!! Thank you!"
+13655,2,A Family Classic,"Well, I probably cannot praise this book enough. I was first introduced to this book when my daughter was in kindergarten. I could not tell you how many times she checked this book out of the library. So many, in fact, the entire family was tired of reading it to her. But still, whenever I mention it to her, she smiles. And my son makes it into a game. Who can remember the lines? I think we've actually added soldiers to the story. The rhythm and rhyme of the story is just perfect. The illustrations are beautiful. They are so vivid and bright. This goes down as a classic for our family."
+13656,1,The choice should be ours,"Someone was aruging that they favored the theatrical version vs. the extended. That's fine. That's their choice. But for those who prefer the extended version, they should be able to get what they want as well. The choice should be ours and not the movie studios! Where is the extended version?!?!? The option should be ours now."
+13657,2,Nice look and quick install.,"I've had this tonneau cover for about two weeks now. It was shipped fully assembled and ready to install. Just took it out of the box, placed on the bed rails, and flipped down the clamps. Quick and simple, it only took but 3 minutes. It's been through a few thunderstorms and no water got past it. Not to mention, it's added nearly 2 mpg to my gas mileage. It's a bit pricey, but then it might pay for itself over the course year in fuel savings."
+13658,1,not durable,"I bought this humidifier because I was sick of using the paper wicks. The ""permanent"" wick does last, with occasional bleach treatments when the odor builds up, although it doesn't wick nearly as well as paper. However, the fan is terribly fragile. After two months of near continuous use over the winter, the fan broke down. The manufacturer replaced the fan and, the following winter, the fan broke down again after two months of use. Avoid this humidifier unless you only plan to run it a few hours a day. And it is VERY noisy on high speed."
+13659,1,"Complete Works, 14 tracks? No way!","A CD purporting to be Joplin's complete works would certainly have more than 14 tracks. Instead try ""The Complete Piano Music Of Scott Joplin,"" ASIN B000003QWN; four disks containing 52 tracks! I think this would be far more likely to be his ""complete works"" though I think even this one must be leaving out some of the compositions of this prolific ragtime composer. I know for a fact 14 songs wouldn't be his complete... anything! If you just want an introduction to his music, this CD may be all the Joplin you need, but be sure to rub out the word ""complete"" when your CD arrives. :)"
+13660,2,Good Stuff,Old book as described to me that my Dad read as a kid. I like it! Will give it to him for Christmas!
+13661,1,Not very exciting reading.,"I thought this would be more ""meaty"" than it is. It didn't really convince me one way or the other."
+13662,2,Handy little product for cast iron pans!,This mitt is a must have if you use cast iron a lot. Even if you leave it on the whole time you are cooking it doesn't transfer the heat through to your hand. Just remember to slide it off if you put the pan in the oven!
+13663,1,What a disappointment!,"I am a BJ fan. In fact, I think that her Francesca Cahill books are some of the best in the romance genre despite the fact that she left us hanging with no consummation of the relationship. Despite that, I have continued to enjoy her novels. I couldn't even finish this one. It was so boring, and I couldn't get past the dichotomy of what a closeknit blended family this was and yet this brother and sister were a couple. The book lacked passion and, frankly, often didn't make much sense. I was hoping for the best and was totally shocked at how bad this one is!"
+13664,1,Boring,"I was expecting a lot more from Petty on this CD. I think the highlights are ""Rhino Skin"" with its strong beat carrying the song, ""No More"", with its beautiful 12 string guitar and the driving ""Free Girl Now"". Unfortunately, the rest of the album is boring with Petty's voice sounding weak and tired. I like his reflective lyrics, but the melodies to which they are sung are unimaginative. This disc is fair at best."
+13665,2,Would recommend This TV,"The TV is great. It took quite a few attempts to adjust the picture (color, contrast, darkness) but now it looks fantastic. It is a little slow to start when turning it on. What I did not like was the delivery. Not only were they 2 days late, but the delivery guy called from 3 hours out and told me I would have to meet him down the road but assured me the TV would fit into a small SUV. I reminded him I was getting white glove service but he didn't seem to care."
+13666,1,People Magazine meets Chaos Theory,"This book (stinks)!Suppose you hear about ""Chaos theory"" from one of your friends. Suppose futher that you want to know more about the topic and buy this book. You won't be happy after 15 pages. Waldrop addresses an interesting accessible subject and takes the fun parts out. In His treatment there are no equations to play with. Discoveries are only described in bland terms and in those descriptions no access is given to the easy material that is available to anyone with a cursory knowledge of algebra.Buy this book if you want to read about scientists drinking coffee. Don't buy this book if you want to hear even just a little bit about real science and applications."
+13667,1,no connection to sony z525a,"The USB cable and software did NOT work for the Sony Z525A phone, purchased through Xcingular. The phone will NOT connect to the pc. The phone does indicate that it is charging through the cable. Uninstalled the software and tried again, with firewall shut off. Same result. Connecting a USB device should NOT be this difficult."
+13668,2,Great read!,"I had no idea there had been so many UFO sightings, nor so many different varieties of creatures, manimals, etc. This is an intriquing account of the many mysteries and possibilities. The only fault I found with the book is the author's obvious fear that he could be branded a 'nut' if he shared any of the opinions or beliefs he wrote about. He makes it known several times that 'he is simply listing actualy reports'. Other than this small stumbling amongst the pages, the book is very well organized, researched and the writing is engaging.Chrissy K. McVayauthor of 'Souls of the North Wind'"
+13669,1,Ended up Returning this Item,The antenna device that you have to plug to your hard drive HAS to be facing UP or it will not work. There's only one way to plug it in and it was facing DOWN for us. Never could get it to work - had to return it. The toy company gave me a voucher for the value of it but now I can only buy either a Mattel or Fisher Price Item to replace it and it can't be done online. I feel like I got the shaft!!
+13670,1,Too Bad,"It is a great Idea and a good try. However, the problem is Activision tried to do it and screwed it all up. Yea it starts out ok. The Demo seems good. But once you try and get into the game, you will find that you will get nowhere, unless you can play for 3-5 hours strait. You are unable to save your game as you go along. The only saving is done when you complete a mission, and most take hours to go through. Now it's not because they are hard just lost of useless stuff to wait through. They try to bridge the Movie-Action game scenario, but end up making mud. I suggest you wait for it to hit the discount bin for $5.00 in about a month."
+13671,2,Aphasia,"Loss of linguistic ability cast light on how a language process circuit in our brains works.This book, though, explains what happens when aphasia develops but at the same time induces thinking of how our brains process visual and audible signals coming from outside in lingustic way mainly through Broca's and Wernicke areas.This book is also good for those who are learning a foreign language."
+13672,1,Stopped working after sometime,I bought this one year before. Now it is not playing any DVDs and get stuck after half hour or so. Sometimes it is not even playing single scree of even new DVDs. My friend also reported the same behaviour. I won't suggest this product to anyone.
+13673,1,NOT for everyone...,"OK... like most golfers have figured out, trying to turn every swing into the same cookie-cutter swing (which unfortunately is the trademark of many teaching pros) is just not a great approach for everyone. Parts of this ""tool"" are helpful for the beginner, including the grip setter, and basic alignment, others less so.However...to really get the clubsetter to ""click"" in the backswing, requires a backswing that for most people may be FAR too swift, encouraging a quick overall shot.Slowing the swing down, and accelerating through the swing is a far more accurate way to bring down your handicap, and control your shots (which ironically, is supported by Leadbetter in some of his more advanced videos). Watching the pros, there are very few who have a quick backward snap in their backswings... smooth...tempo... Fred Couples style is a far better backswing to emulate in my humble opinion!"
+13674,1,They are Missiong Songs from The Movie !,"I would say get this for the Song tommorow by Saif keta but the One song if you Watch the Flim very Closly was when Ali and his brother paid Jamie Fox a visit in the Hotel and Ali riding on the Train , That Track was By Johnny Farmer a Old school Blues song Called Death Letter , with Great vocals this song is not on Soundtrack ""why? It is the best song in the whole damn MovieI wonder where I can get it like it was song in the Movie ?if you know let me know !"
+13675,2,the ultimate review,this toy is the greatest toy i have ever played with. every time i played with it was a new adventure.
+13676,2,Coffe mugs,Good price. Arrived in excellent condition and quickly. Love the quality of Emile Henry items. You get what you pay for. Their glaze is awesome. Doesn't stain and very easy to clean. Swear by their stuff. Have used the mugs for years (blue) and decided to order more in a different color (citron). Amazon makes it so easy to find what you are looking for and a good price!
+13677,2,Warm and cozy!,These are the most comfortable boots I have ever worn. Even without socks my feet were nice and warm while standing in snow scraping my car windows in twenty degree weather. It feels like walking on a cloud. Don't forget to use a water repellent before you use them.
+13678,1,worst movie of a decade at least,"I was very disappointed with this movie. The mayor characters were left out, the portrayed characters were not developed enough for me to connect in the same way (or similar) when reading the book (which is brilliant, btw), the movie plot was even changed! Don't bother with this movie, it would only waste your time!"
+13679,1,Average Fantasy,"Being an avid reader of fantasy novels I was disappointed after reading The Sword of Shannara. I found the story to be yet another spin on the quest motif. While quest stories are an intrinsic part of fantasy literature, I feel that the author must create interesting and believable characters in order to compensate for a common storyline. Sadly I did not feel this book demonstrated such a quality. The characters all seemed to have very little personality (apart from them all being disconsolate, a word Mr. Brooks must be overly fond of). Having read other novels by this author I must say I feel this was an exception rather than the rule. I've enjoyed many stories Mr. Brooks has written. I do not think I'll continue reading this series, however."
+13680,1,Would be nice if it worked,"The first keyboard we recieved had a broken control key, making it useless as a keyboard. The seller's customer service was responsive and did send out a replacement, but the replacement keyboard was ALSO broken -- this one's heating element did not work. When I asked if they could guarantee a third would actually work as advertised, the seller simply offered to take the returns and refund my money.There may be some that actually do work, but I'm disgusted with the quality of the product."
+13681,1,better than kim waters?? are u sure about that??,"There is no way that marion meadows is better than kim waters on soprano sax! He sure does not display that ""heap"" of talent on this CD. He has had better CD's in the past. Traxx 1-5 really bore me! IF I WERE U ID CONSIDER KIM WATERS ""In The Name Of Love"" over this ""players club"" thing going here..."
+13682,1,A regular CD for the 25th anniversary???????,"WTF??? In the age of high-definition recording one would think that such a historic band as Pink Floyd would warrant releasing a Special Edition for the ""anniversary edition"" and not just a regular frickin' CD. Why not an SACD or AT LEAST a DVD-Audio edition of WYWH?????????Makes my opinion of record companies slide that much lower than the sewer they are in right now."
+13683,1,Stupid movie.....,... about stupid people. The story claims to be based on true stories but I will be honest it is so farfetched that it boggles the mind. Dont waste your time with this even if it is free for prime members.
+13684,1,waste of money!,I bought it after reading all the reviews. What a let down. It should be classified under books for children. Check it out at the library before spending your money on it.
+13685,2,A unusually candid inside look at the franchise.,"Simply one of the most intriguing books ever written about an NFL team, Polling and Kramer offer interviews and ""where are they now"" biographies of players thoughtout various eras of Packer history. Each era is defined by a different head coach. Any fan of the NFL and the team will find the candid discussions and topics entertaining and often surprising. Much of the discussion is critical of the coaching style of Dan Devine, Bart Starr, and Forrest Gregg. The book lifts the veil of mystery from the infamous years when the team was poorly managed, poorly coached, and stuggled to compete. We find out why and how things went wrong from the players point of view. An unusually frank history."
+13686,1,Eh-So SO,"The DVD worked well, and the cover was good but it did not include the slip cover (which I really wanted). The fact that this was missing should have been included in the description."
+13687,1,The Worst,"This is the worst video ever, it's not even funny. Spare yourself and avoid buying and watching this movie, it will result in a loss of 2hours of your life."
+13688,2,Pleased Mom,"This is a great learning tool for little bratz lovers, the pointer is not the best for accuracy when pointing to a location on the globe but for the most part it's a good and fun learning tool great CHRISTmas gift."
+13689,2,One of the best books I have ever read!,"Throughout this book, you will show just about every emotion possible. I was giddy, I was sad, excited, angry, and I cried a lot!This book showed me what it was like for the Japanese and Japanese-Americans during this time. To be honest, I was kind of clueless until now.I fell in love with Hiroko and everyone around her. All of their strength and courage are just a few of the qualities that everyone should strive to have.This is one of the best books, if not the best book, I have ever read! I'm sure anyone who reads it will absolutely LOVE it!"
+13690,2,Shed Stop,"The English Bulldog is probably the best pet man can have, but the hair loss due to shedding causes him to be less than perfect. If you have been around an English Bulldog you certainly know the meaning of Shedding dog hair. You don't play with the dog before going out for the evening that's for certain. Theo, the bulldog, was given ""Shed Solution's"" Skin & Coat Supplement and what a difference in just a couple of weeks. Now after a month he sheds very little. He has become a delight to have around. Daily vacuuming is no longer needed. My English Bulldog is now the perfect pet and man's best friend. No doubts. Thank you Shed Solution"
+13691,2,the stand up is great,chris rock is one of the best comedians around and this cd proves why the No Sex In the Champaign Room song wasn't all that good like everyone thinks but I really like this CD
+13692,2,Great intermediate workout ;-P,"I own several Ellen Barrett led workouts, and this is one of the better ones. She's always chipper and outgoing without being anoying or offputting and she leads very well, with clear instruction so you shouldn't get lost too much.All up, this is about 45 minutes and great to do either after a strenuous workout, or at the end of a hard day. You will definately increase flexibility and balance after doing this even only a couple of times. It does get a little easier with each try. With all the yoga moves, there is also muscle toning too. I love the little stretches between moves. There is nice relaxing instrumental music and overall the workout is relaxing (yet you will feel this for the next day or so).I really enjoy doing this (I'm not a major Yoga fan, but enjoy this one) and have done it even twice in one day for the heck of it. It's great and Ellen is great. She's a terrific instructor who clearly loves doing yoga and teaches well. I highly recommend this one."
+13693,2,Some of the best fiddle playing I have heard in a long time,This is an excellent album with some great fiddle playing. Ryan is amazing to watch when he plays in person. You can feel the emotion he puts into each song.
+13694,1,Worse Nova EVER!,"I actually thought that I might enjoy learning something after watching the introduction of ""Hunting the Elements"". After all, this is Nova, right? But instead I end being verbally and visually assaulted by a pathetic jerk who feels compelled to dumb down the content of the program with lame comedic interludes in order, I suppose, to appeal to the lowest common denominator in the viewing public, if the viewing public is twelve years old and tuning in to modern day equivalent of Soupy Sales. His interviews with experts in their fields were reminiscent of those conducted by Jon Stewart's sidekicks on the Daily Show, designed not to elicit intelligent discourse, but to make the interviewee and viewers cringe. I cannot express how deeply disappointed I am in Nova, knowing that David Pogue will have a hand in future episodes. Oh, how the mighty have fallen."
+13695,2,A Wonderful Meaningful Gift,"I was given this book by my wife and children for my birthday. What a wonderful gift!! I have never had a daily devotional before this book, but always loved reading books on leadership. This book is a wonderful blend of leadership wisdom and the spiritualness we sometimes lack in our daily dealings with those we interact with. It has given me a wonderful start to my day. I then share the daily lesson with my family, friends and coworkers. A must have on your desk or in your briefcase."
+13696,2,Handy and powerful,"This is a handy (little, but powerful) chainsaw. Don't laugh, it's true.Great for carrying into the woods to make a quick job of small trees, cutting firewood, etc. Nice to not have to mess with gas, etc. You do have to add oil for the chain, but otherwise this is a snap to use!"
+13697,2,Works,"Has a smokey aroma, works with all sorts of food, and a little goes a long way with this which is good since it is only 4oz of the stuff. Should make my salmon taste a little richer."
+13698,1,Where has Spalding Gray gone?,"Domesticity may make him happy, but it sure doesn't do much for his monologuing. This, alone among all his monologues, is flat, rather boring. There's something to be said for transgression, at least as a topic for art."
+13699,1,Dont buy,This is a very difficult thing to put together I have literally put together real engines easeyer than this the enigine does not go together like a real one nothing fits right and does not make any sense over all it's a pice of crap save your money
+13700,2,Dark Guardian from Christine Feehan,"Get your book,a quiet place,an get ready to stay awhile. You are not going to put this down.This is a great read."
+13701,2,Very Good Item,Purchased these mints as a good alternative to that extra cup of coffee. Excellent if you are on a long drive and don't want to stop for another cup o' joe.
+13702,2,"great film, but description of Amazon it's wrong","as all we already know, Star Wars is great a classic one and is a requirement to have this film in our collection.Important: The description that Amazon indicates of the subtitles it's wrong, the Spanish language subtitles not are, only in english."
+13703,2,KitchenAid,"I bought the KitchenAid for christmas.I am studying to become a profesional cooker , and I used a lot.Is fantastic, good power.Helps me a lot in the kitchen.I am really happy with this purchase."
+13704,2,"Tender, Sexy, Charming","The setting for this book, rural Ireland, is wonderful. Thedescriptions enable you to image the town, the people, thecountryside. Ms. Hendrix did a great job of portraying the warmth of the Irish people. The main charactes, Brian and Tara, are multifaceted. You feel the turmoil of Tara realizing that maybe Brian is not the greedy developer she wishes he was. Torn between writing the truth and misconceptions has Tara questioning her own emotional attraction to Brian. Brian as well must break down his misconceptions of all reports then Tara herself. Their romance is sensual, funny and warm. The townspeople are as captivating as Brian and Tara. My one peeve the proofreading (Brain instead of Brian). Overall, A GRAND BOOK. ENJOYABLE AND HEARTWARMING. END"
+13705,1,So so so soooooo BAD,"One of the top 5 worst films I have ever ever ever had the displeasure to snooze through. The tone established during the first few minutes is promising. After that, it finds new lows to sink to with each scene - well, I slept through the last half so maybe it redeemed itself. Honestly, this thing actually made me feel kind of sick like I was getting the flu or something. Yes. It's that bad. And I hate saying it because I adore JD and admire TB's other films. WTF happened ??? Bad writing! Bad make up!! Sheesh. I'll shut up now cuz I'm sure u get the pic. It's BAD."
+13706,2,Fat Blocker or Bottled Will Power!?,"I have been on Alli for Three Days now... so far I have not seen any of the nasty side effects! Thank god! I think that is because this pill has almost made me afraid of eating fatty foods, because I want to avoid any side effects. This pill may not block a ton of fat, but it has been the will power I need to avoid fatty foods! So thank you ALLI!"
+13707,2,Another classic that should NOT be missed.,"I saw Made at an advanced USC screening and absolutely loved the movie. I'm a huge fan of 'Swingers' and was anxious for the opportunity to see Vince Vaughn and Jon Favreau team up again. I was a bit hesitant at first because I didn't want the same jokes to be repeated (after all, my friends and I have run the jokes through their nine lives already) and I wanted a different environment for the dynamic duo to strut their stuff. Well, I recieved all that and more. Once again, I must say the dialogue is the highlight of the movie. I love the banter that goes back and forth between the two stars, and a couple surprise guest stars add to the mix wonderfully. If you see this movie with a bunch of friends, you'll definitely come away from the movie repeating some of the lines! Go see it...and when it comes out on DVD...buy it."
+13708,1,Creepy Puppets!,Saw the movie a couple days ago on Netflix. The puppets were really creepy looking. I would not buy this video for young children. The puppets were really ugly and uninteresting to watch. Also my kid didn't stay longer than 2 minutes to watch. I just fast forward most of the movie to see what was happening. Definitely don't understand how this won an academy award. I did not enjoy it at all! Would not recommend.
+13709,1,Don't,"I bought this software after the 30 day demo (which was actually much less than 30 days) was up, back in Jan 2012, I had also used the demo in 2009 and deleted it because it was glitchy. Yeah, you get free updates (which is a confusing download and invoice), but the last one, to version 2.9.4 is still prompting me to put my serial number in to register after I already did and is now again running in demo mode. This is getting really tedious to use and to top it off, now without it, my computer runs slow.You will find that you delete the same tracking cookies over and over. I read a review where someone called it ""bloatware"" and I would agree.My question is, why does it seem this company has a monopoly on the anti-spyware market?(which is the only reason I caved and bought it in the first place).I'd love a refund on this crappy software."
+13710,2,Great for small dogs,"My terrior/shih-tzu mix has an underbite and has a hard time biting on ropes or tennis balls. He LOVES these small AKC animals. It's just the right size for him to get his mouth around and make it squeak. He likes to throw the animal in the air, catch it and shake it, then make it squeak. I usually find these animals in his dog bed because he brings them to bed and snuggles them."
+13711,1,produces smoky smell,"After about 15 minutes of use, my lamp starts to smell like there's going to be a fire. I took the bulb out of my lamp (660W, 250V), and the bulb has some sort of silver stuff on it that looks like it has melted and burnt part of the metal."
+13712,1,They did better...,"I loved to read the other Valdemar stories from Ms. Lackey, but Silver Gryphon I could hardly finish. This book is just to long. Booooring. If the whole story had been told in a short story of about 50 Pages, it would have been fine and maybe earned a rate of 8 instead of 2.I just hope the authors will once again begin to write interesting books."
+13713,2,warning,"yes. this doesn't come with a battery. but it is ideal for people with many batteries and chargers already (i have 2 chargers and four batteries). I do not need this tool as i already have one with the kit, but the impact driver (or right angle drill or bandsaw or hammer drill) would be nice to spend half the price to get the tool when i don't need another charger and two more batteries"
+13714,1,DON'T BUY IT!!!!!,"As far as recieveing this product and quility, 5 stars! But, if you are a real chopped and screw listner, this is HORRIBLE! 007 should not ever chopp and screw anything! I should have known better when I heard how he SLOPPED and chopped up UGK greatest hits!"
+13715,1,Trash on the highway,"i bought this because i was curious, then i listened to it, and got really angry. i heard the samples and i thought it couldn't possibly be that bad, but it certainly was. when i got it, i listened to it once, then i picked my friend up, we were listening to it in my car, and he threw it out the window. so, if anyone happens to see a cd on rt.195 just outside of providence, be sure to run it over."
+13716,1,Far from perfect,"The singing in this cd is far from perfect. In fact, there're long stretches which can fairly be described as ludicrous.The singing skills of Russell Watson is really rudimentary to the extreme. His narrow voice range and weak tone, which require copious help from the record producers, simply cannot manage the songs, be their classical or pop.Some people may think that this is singing for ""everyone"". I must disagree, for such a kind of crooning will probably only please those who treat the music in this cd as sort of ""background noise"". Those who really apply their ears and minds to the singing will be dissatisifed, and indeed horrified, by its many shortcomings.This is certainly one of the worst cds that I've heard in my 2000 plus collection of recordings. It really deserve just one star, or maybe even less."
+13717,2,"Lots of fun, but watch for sharp edges.","We bought this truck for my son for Christmas. He and his friends love it. They love to push each other around in it. That being said, this truck does have sharp edges in the bed that can cut or bruise if the truck tips over."
+13718,2,"I'm not even a Gloria EsteFAN, but this is a knockout!","Your neighbors will hate you, but play this LOUD! Not just a system show-off, but a system ""stress test"". Great songs, one after the other and spectacular dynamics and production. Another no-brainer!"
+13719,2,THERE BEST ALBUM!!!,"This is STONE TEMPLE PILOTS first and best album out of the three they released. Naked sunday, Sex type thing, and Cracker man are some of the best songs on this album. But don't take it from me, order it now and experience the total power of Scott and the band. It's emotional, expresive, raw, and powerfull. This album has sold millions and will continue to sell, It's that good! If you like NIRVANA you'll like STONE TEMPLE PILOTS..."

This is an unexpected and pleasant plus.Cons.*horrible bass(base) response.*overall the earphones feel like they play saturate at 500Hz and below.I have swapped the $29 Sony phones during play and the difference was clearly detectable."
+13726,2,A Catholic Treasure!,"As a cradle Catholic in the tumultuous and exciting process of re-discovering my own Catholic faith, Thomas Howard's book is an absolute treasure! I read this book with alternating tears of gratitude and tingles of awe, and whenever I put it down I had to pick it up again within minutes to get more. At first I was inclined to scoff at the comparisons of Howard with C.S. Lewis, but I found they are quite accurate. Howard has the passion, elequence and grace of Lewis combined with a love for the Catholic faith (but with no antagonism for non-Catholic questions or (mis)understandings). The review by David Thomas was spot-on when he compared this book to a love poem. I mean it quite sincerely when I say that every Catholic, and every person interested in the Catholic faith, would do themselves a great service by reading this fabulous and inspiring book."
+13727,2,One of the less memorable Moore Bonds,"Coming right after 'For Your Eyes Only', Albert Brocolli once again introduces a Bond film that is more down to earth than some of its precessors such as 'Moonraker.' Although not terribly captivating, it's still a good film and way above par of the Timothy Dalton films that would come later.Bond is out to avenge the assassination of another agent who was bringing back information from across the Iron Curtain. Bond's quest soon takes him to India where he meets Octopussy (Maud Adams) who's not entirely aware of her criminal partner's (Louis Jourdan) plans. Bond soon finds out what those plans are and is out to save the world once again.This isn't the most memorable Moore Bond but it has good action. As with it's predecessor, Bond doesn't have a lot of gadgets in this film other than a laser pen which he rarely uses. The film has a great fight sequence on a cargo plane in full flight. A good Bond film to watch several times."
+13728,1,"Cheap, made in China.","I ordered this wagon after looking at the Radio Flyer equivalent in a store. I didn't like the Radio Flyer and I do not like this one either. They're basically the same, the side walls are flimsy and not treated. The paint chips of easily, the handle is flimsy. Who came up with that little Grip? It's certainly not made for average hands. Everything is made as cheap as it gets. The shell is so thin, it has no stability to it.I'm not sure if I keep this crap (modify it) or send it back."

+13731,2,One of the best !,X-men First Class is definitely one of the best summer movies this year. It is also tied with X2: X-men United for best X movie. Everything from script to casting is superb. Can't wait for the Blu-ray and the next installment in the franchise. I'm guessing it will take place in the 1970's and Nixon will be involved somehow.
+13732,1,Overrated,The cushion is too soft. Memory foam just smashes when pressure is applied. This means it doesn't really do a good job of supporting your back but it's better than nothing. This item does not come with an adjustable strap (it's elastic) which means it will more than likely not strap to your car seat and may or may not work in the office.
+13733,2,Behind the scenes of protocol design,"The previous version of this book has long been one of my all-time favorite networking books (up there with Steven's ""TCP/IP Illustated Vols 1-3""). I was pleasantly surprised when I found a second edition had been released.This book didn't fail to deliver on my expectations of excellent content delivery. I mean, for a fellow nerd that Perlman can sure communicate!For those of us who have had to develop and debug protocols, this book's background of the ""why"" behind the ""what"" is extremely illustrative and informative. Its one thing to review RFC's and IEEE literature, its another to read the pain went into these defined behaviors."
+13734,2,Piano Romantico,"Heard this music being played as background music in a Mexican restaurant. The waiter was kind enough to get me the title. I ordered it and it came with 2 disks. In my humble opinion, this is the best piano music available. This guy is fantastic. It is now standard dinner background music at our home."
+13735,2,"Wow, I can't believe I missed this","Gene Eugene was such a fine and wonderful songwriter. It's tragic that he died so young. I love Adam Again and in searching for some of his other work I stumbled across this gem. Windows. What a great song about how God sees through our situations. I mean you really don't find artists writing like this now days. Brendon Heath with Give Me Your Eyes comes close in the concept, but it's hard to capture how God sees through our brokenness the way that Gene does. The whole album is good. I played it through twice today, and I'm getting ready to play it again."

+13738,2,Scandinavian delight,Kitchen of Light by Andreas Viestad is a nicely produced collection of his recipes. He gives useful tips and clear instructions for what appear to be tasty dishes. Keep in mind that the products he uses are all found in Scandinavia. The recipes are quite different from those of Mediterranean countries. Viestad has a good sense of humor and reading the introductions to each chapter will enrich your understanding of Nordic cuisine. If you have an extensive shelf of cookbooks - do add this one.
+13739,1,"Cool, but what about software?","The basic mouse functions are great. It has good accuracy, feels good in the hand, it's pretty, and I like the potential of actually using the 6 other controls when Logitech updates their software. I followed the excellent instruction booklet to install this on my Windows 2000 Dell computer, but I was never able to find a way to assign commands to the extra controls. The installed software thought I had a 2 button mouse. I zoomed on over to Logitech's website to look for solutions and downloaded the current version of the mouse software. However, even Logitech's updated software can't recognize anything more than a 2 button mouse. I have since removed all of Logitech's software, sent them an e-mail explaining the problem, and I still have effectively a cute 2 button cordless mouse. I suppose I expected more from top-of-the-line"

+13742,2,Laughter Sociological Perspective,"Peter Berger is a brilliant Sociologist. Writing style is engaging yet high level vocabulary and critical thinking. His Invitation to Sociology is also a great and challenging read...as is this review of humor throughout an historical, world-wide perspective. From court jester to comedian.Also has some fun jokes dispersed through-out.Deep read."
+13743,1,I expect better,"Vittles Vault 40-pound stackable? How is it stackable? First, there are no fittings for it to be stackable. When the top container is slightly emptied, it slides around on the bottom container. There should be fittings (feet, indentations to fit into, so that it does not move off one another?!!)that make this stackable! Secondly, when the top container is full, the bottom container lid can not screw on because the weight misshapes the opening! One has to lighten the weight, in order for the opening to go back into shape. The purpose of a 40 lb. container is to hold an abundance of dog food. Third, the lid does not screw on easily and quick, each and every time. There are times that one has to try and try again to get the lid to fit in and start screwing. I am not sending it back because I found shelving that holds the containers seperately. But believe me, I will watch for a better way of storing my dogs' food.Stackable Vittles Vault 40#"

+13746,1,It had great potential BUT...,"I thought this book was terrible. I read all the reviews and was ready for a great read. I knew that Jiles was a poet and this was her first novel but knowing that didn't help. The story was too pat, everything conviently turned up right when it was supposed to. I just didn't feel it was realistic. The description of the area was very interesting but she didn't do much with it. It was just a backdrop for the novel. Also, there were epigraphs at the beginning of each chapter that just didn't seem to tie into the story. I read them initially but finally I gave up in the hopes that it would get better or just be over more quickly. We read this as a book group choice and it was universally hated. I would recommend skipping it."

+13748,1,Legal Action for a defective product?,"Hello, I've had the same problem with this tv. The blue blotches and the yellow discoloration. My warranty did expire though Zenith did say they would cover the 2500 dollar part. That's nice and all, but I assume they are using the same parts that these tvs were initially built with. I expect it will work for about another year or so until I'm faced with having to shell out all that money to have it fixed again. I'm wondering if any legal action can be taken against Zenith/LG for manufacturing and selling a defective product? Perhaps it falls under some kind of product liability law? I Just want my money back and I'll be satisfied!!!"

+13752,1,Celestron8x22 Essential or Gimmic?,"I find this item to be handy & lightweight/pocket sized, but all pictures are very grainy and therefore the item can only be considered as a 'snapshot device'. More of a gimmic than an essential item for people such as birdwatchers."
+13753,1,Product is not as described,"My poor rating is based not on the actual product, but the fact the product I received is not the classical collection as described in Amazon's product details. Rather it's a collection of popular holiday favorites performed by the Montgomery Smith [saxophone] Quintet and published by Reflections. Songs include ""I'll Be Home for Christmas"", ""Christmas Time Is Here"", ""What Child Is This"", ""Let It Snow"", ""Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas"", ""O Christmas Tree"", ""Happy Holidays"", ""The Christmas Song"", ""What Are You Doing New Years Eve"", ""Silver Bells"", ""Merry Christmas Baby"", ""I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus"", ""Winter Wonderland"", ""White Christmas"". This product is only available through third parties. Be sure to verify the product with seller before you order."
+13754,2,Great modern memoirist,"David Race Bannon writes with a skill which surely ranks him amongst the great modern memoirists. Race Against Evil brings us the ultimate anti-hero and at risk are his life and soul - the end is sweeter because it's all true. We meet the French superspy, Jacques Defferre, a character who is both cold-blooded and yet provides a human interest.Perhaps the most interesting persons (other than the author) are the eccentric Interpol agent Eunmi and the delightfully Machiavellian Lee Hyung-jin, Korean secret service. Race Against Evil is an autobiography of fighting child slavery, of assassination and ruthless villans. It is both informative and approachable. And provides a very good read."

+13756,1,Thumbs Down on Hoover Duros,"I have had this vacuum for 2 years and I hate it. It is heavy, cumbersome, always tips over. A pain to change the bag the attchments etc. I do not mind vacuuming but this machine makes me miserable. I am in search of a better vacuum and cant wait to get rid of this one. My next one will not be a Hoover based on my experience!"
+13757,1,Horrible!!!,"If this was suppose to an accurate portrayal of social nudism, they failed miserably! The acting is pitiful (reminds me of high school drama club acting), the storyline is stupid beyond belief. It is a sad attempt of making a movie about making a movie about nudism, just a bunch of wanna-be's trying to make a name for themselves. Some footage in this movie was also used in Naked in the 21st Century, which is just as horrible as this. If you want a movie that has a honest, accurate portrayal of nudism keep looking becuase this is NOT it!!!"
+13758,1,DVD useful as anesthetic or a handy coaster,"I am truly sorry that I did not see as much in this movie as the other people reviewing it. That said, this is one of the worst films I've seen in years - and I'm not a purist, either. I enjoyed Charlie's Angels as much as the next guy, and I can usually get a kick out of even an obviously terrible movie like A Knight's Tale. No such luck here. This movie isn't just a bad transition from the TV show, it's a terribly made, acted, and ESPECIALLY written film. The script caused me physical pain. I can stomach Independence Day, I can live with Armageddon (although I'd rather not), but PLEASE never let this movie see the light of day again. It was a crime to make it, and it was a crime to re-release it on DVD. Please don't add to the list of felonies by spending your hard earned money to hear lines like, ""Are you finished hosing each other down with testosterone?"" Consider yourself warned."

+13760,2,the true story of a daring robbery,"This book tells the true story of how Edward Pierce, with several accomplices, robbed a train of it's substantial load of gold bullion. It's an incredible story, especially the details and planning that went into pulling off the robbery. It sounds like it's straight out of a movie (the story has in fact been made into a movie), but the story is true. This is different from the other Crichton books I've read, like Jurassic Park and Congo, but it's still pretty good. The only bad thing I have to say about it is the blinding orange cover on the book that makes you want to rip it off."

Get your copy now, as this one still has years of play life left in it."
+13763,1,This phone was a waste of money,"Besides the complete inaccuracy of the battery life meter, the tendency for the antenna to unscrew itself, and fall off and the horribly unintuitive UI for this phone, I have to say that the ring tone and volume contrils on the outside of the phone have to be one of the most poorly planned cell phone features ever.I can't tell you how many calls I have missed or how many times my cell phone has rung at inopportune times when I thought it was on vibrate mode - and how truly frustrating this is.If I could return his phone I would - and the next phone I buy will not be Motorola."
+13764,2,"""Viewer from Apalachicola"" is wrong, wrong, wrong!","I think the fact that there are TWO ""75th Anniversary"" compilations is confusing people. The other one, from Koch, I have not seen, but I have not seen a single positive word written about it.THIS collection, from VCI, is the real thing! Disc 1 features 9 cartoons from the Max Fleischer era, including the three famous long color features, and they've never looked better. Disc 2 features 25 cartoons from the Famous Studios era of the '50s, and while they can't hold a candle to the earlier Fleischers, they are still worthwhile. Add a commentary by historian Jerry Beck, and you have a package worth every penny of its reasonable price.I hope ""Apalachicola"" purchases THIS compilation and retracts his/her earlier review."
+13765,1,The biggest turkey this side of Thanksgiving,"This is the worst film I've ever seen. If this was the only film available on a transatlantic flight, I'd still recommend looking out of the window."
+13766,1,Poorly Written Sob Story,"While it is unfortunate that the author felt violated, it is difficult to give her very much sympathy. The book reads like the latest issue of YM magazine. Ms. Tarbox paints a picture of her town as if it were an elitist, highly competitive, and altogether unpleasant place to be a child, yet she adores her even more homogenous New England prep school? New Canaan and greater Fairfield County is a wonderful place to grow up. Children there are generally very well-off and denied little. It is unfortunate that Katie's story was not better written. A few extra hours of editing would have gained more sympathy for both the author and her cause instead of making them both laughable."
+13767,2,First impression - looks like it'll be very helpful!,"I've always had a mystery novel floating around inside my head, so with my husband's encouragement, I thought I'd give it a whirl! Before I start, though, I want to make sure I really know what I'm doing, so I bought this book (no sense in getting a brand new copy if a used copy will do!). I've skimmed through it, and it looks just like what I was hoping for. With the holidays approaching faster than I'd like, I need to wait until the 'dead' of January to start! My first impression is that this book will definitely give me the guidelines I've wanted, and I know Ms. Grafton won't steer me wrong!"
+13768,1,Get ready to blow on that inflatable backpack over and over and over....,"Out of 4 of these I ordered, 3 of the inflatables were damaged. I had to be on it all night so it wouldn't look deflated... Definitely a big hassle and headache.Sizing was fine, a little baggy for my taste (5'6 140 pounds) but with the backpack strapped on it looked better. Don't get me wrong, people loved the costume, a BIG hit, but after paying for this the least I could hope for was a non deflating backpack."
+13769,2,Loved it,"I didn't think I'd be interested in this movie but I ended up absoutely loving it. I've never seen the play so it was completely new to me. I loved the music and the humor. This is a movie that will put you in a good mood for sure. All the lead characters were great but for me, it was the supporting characters that really made this a great movie. James Marsden, Amanda Bynes, Michelle Pfeiffer, and others were all great! I did feel though that John Travolta was miscast. He doesn't have a good singing voice and he seemed to be trying to be Mike Myers. If they're going to have a male for the role, I think Myers would have be perfect for it. But Travolta was still good."
+13770,1,It's just common sense...,"I really wanted to like this but Hair Rules didn't tell me anything I already didn't know about caring for natural hair. I bought this at Barnes and Noble last week on a whim. Got home read the first few chapters, like Tamiko Frasier's story and how she finally went natural and skimmed the rest. Liked how the author reminds the reader to embrace their natural hair and that good hair is really clean, healthy hair, blah blah blah. The book doesn't really recommend many hair product options and I don't think it's a good idea to set hair when it's dripping wet (could get messy). I do agree that a hood dryer is better for your hair than a blow dryer but I learned of this two years ago. I guess this book did come out in 2003 but most of this is still just common sense. I returned this book the next day and glad I did."
+13771,1,TASTES LIKE HELL!!!!,"MSM is great for skin, hair and joints....but the taste is unbearable. It is so bitter that upsets my stomach.

+13773,2,What Bats Do on Vacation,"Really cute description of bats spending time at the beach after everyone is gone. Lovely illustrations. It's written for children 4-7, but I got it to bring along on our beach vacation."
+13774,1,EAGLES on VALIUM minus the talent,"Somewhere in the reviews someone mentioned ROCK & ROLL / CRUNCHING GUITARS / SUPERB MULTIPLE GUITAR ATTACK and other flat out lies. This is as edgy and as close to ROCK & ROLL as JOHN DENVER ( during his lighter moments ) and BARRY MANILOW. Think EAGLES on valium wihtout the talent or the songs. Yes there are snippets of adequate guitar playing, but thats about it. Of all the superfluous musical offerings in this odius ""SOUTHERN ROCK""genre, this sets the benchmark for crap"
+13775,2,The Gestapo,"The book contains many fact that I had not none. It is surprising where many of these came to light. It is very detailed and well researched. The back biting in the regime was always know known and is confirmed in this book. All in all it was a book which was hard to put down. Looking back at the horror, it is difficult to believe that this could happen in the las century."
+13776,1,Not too helpful for Windows users,"I bought this book on the recommendation of a Mac guru to help with learning to use a recently purchased iBook. I am a longtime and skilled PC user.I can see where this book would be helpful to someone who was familiar with previous Mac OSes, but it did not spell things clearly enough for this poor Windows user. The book even recommends buying ""Switching to the Mac: The Missing Manual"" instead of this book for Windows users.The portions of the book that I have managed to wade through have been somewhat confusing due to typos, unclear labeling, and mislabeling, i.e. referring to a $ as a pound sign.I generally consider O'Reilly books an excellent source to learn from, but this book was a disappointment."
+13777,1,different product pictured,the product pictured now is not the item first pictured. the other item has a velcro strap over the back of the hand this item straps in the palm of the hand . this item serves a different purpose and is not why i bought it .I AM NOT SATIFIED.
+13778,2,Excellent reading.,"Whether you're a Java expert or a novice, this book contains excellent material to get you thinking more carefully. Very entertaining."
+13779,2,Kids love animal noises,"My daughter was given this toy when she was 9 months old. The magnets make it east to put the animals in the barn. At nine months, she could not match the animals, but she could put the pieces in. When a match is correct the toy sings ""you made a match!"" then makes the animal sound. If it the pieces do not match it names your animal- ""a horse-duck, that's silly"" It is very cute. Kids are rewarded with song whether they are old enough to match or not. Now, at twelve months, it is more age appropriate for my daughter. She still loves it, it never got boring like so many other toys."
+13780,2,Great,"This CD I believe is an extension of the Box Car Racer album. So good. Totally different direction, I love it. I was starting to get really tired of Blink playing in the pop-punk category, because I knew they had this kind of potential. Thank you Blink182 for releasing an album that really shows your true musical character."
+13781,1,Not as good as other Thermos Products,"I thought this would insulate as well as some of the other thermos bottles I have had. Sadly, it does not. It is pretty skinny and can fit in the side pocket of a lot of bags, a feature that my other thermos bottle does not have. The top and lid clip work well and the bottle feels good in the hand. However, it only keeps ice cool for about 6-8 hours. Sadly, that's sub par for me. I like it but don't love it."
+13782,2,More Vincent Please!,"I think all women fans of the show secretly wanted their very own Vincent! I know I did. What a wondeful, well written series. Thank you Ron Perlman for portraying the beast so beautifully! I loved this series when it was first run and I love it today! Buy and enjoy...over and over and over again!"

From useful, detailed information on treatment symptoms and pain management techniques, to the hope offered by great philosophers for spiritual strength, Mind, Body, And Soul is a holistic, informative, powerful, and very strongly recommended presentation."
+13784,1,it's a toy,"Bostitch does not have a customer review section, that should tell you a lot. The compressor comes with a 1 year warranty. Mine quit just after a year with very light usage. I tore it apart. The 1.3HP motor should not have a ratting of more than 1/8 HP, no heat dissipation, very little fan cooling and then only when running. Just as it needs the most cooling when finishing a compress cycle the fan cooling quits. The motor has PLASTIC bushings! The Max.ambient operating temp. is 94'F. The over temp protection is very cheap and unreliable, mine took over 3 days to reset! The motor has just barely enough power to build enough pressure to shut the motor off from the pressure switch. The diaphragm pump is undersized as well, the last 10 pounds of pressure takes about as long to build as the initial 115 pounds. SAVE YOUR MONEY, this is a way under-designed product, not worth the money at any price."
+13785,2,PARADISE,"As soon as I heard the first song I felt like I was far, far away from all chaos. Lying in bed I felt like Cleopatra, like a goddess, and was entranced with each beat and soothing rythm."
+13786,1,Knee-jerk liberal tripe scapegoatism at its worst.,"The epitomy of revisionist history/liberal misinformation at its absolute worst. If you don't like to think for yourself, and prefer an obese ad-hominem dependent socialist telling you that your American culture is evil, and that everyone who owns a gun is suffering from inadequecies not only in the penile department, but also in the ol' noodle, then this movie is for you. Moore's interviewing skills range from patronizing to downright hostile in the blink of an eye, as evidenced in his interview with Charlton Heston for the finale of the film. Honestly, I feel I'm wasting my time even reviewing this mindless drivel, but I'm hoping if I give it a scathing enough review... I weep for anyone that paid to see this, much less enjoyed themselves. I'd take slow death involving needles penetrating my irises until I passed out from the excruciating agony over subjecting myself to viewing this film willingly. Consider yourself warned..."
+13787,1,poor service. do not order from this seller,"Seller did not advertise proper item, and did not send me what I requested. Complete waste of money and time."
+13788,2,Don't know what to do without it,"I build staircases and handrails have always been a problem especially the bead profiles and deep coves. I bought the dremel 6000-01 3 months ago and have been thrilled with its performance. On small beads, the lower speeds work best. On the large round parts and deep coves, the higher speeds work well. The selection of profiles has satisfied my every need, and the small flat sanding pad gets in where regular sanders just won't fit. The Sanding Tubes seemed to be a real turn off, but as I used them they really are a magnificent solution to a difficult problem. The motor is small and I was amazed at how quickly and accurately it formed beads. I would highly recommend this tool."
+13789,2,GREAT!,GREAT Product...GREAT Price...5 STAR ***** EVERYTHING !!! Was an absolute pleasure doing business and I will be back for more purchases I HIGHLY recommend. Thanks a MILLION.
+13790,1,Still waiting,"Ordered them on october 26 and its now november 27 an still hve not received them. I have to say, they are priced well."
+13791,2,Table Cover,"I like the Veranda table cover. It looks great and is well made, a canvas material with plastic lined interior. This is my second purchase of this cover. They only seem to last about five years then the material gets brittle and prone to tears but overall it's held up well."
+13792,1,"Problems after owning it 1 year, 1 month and 13 days later","I loved my Akai 4250 until tonight. It died!!! Silly me didn't buy the warranty with the TV when I bought it because Akai is supposed to be a good company. I did my research before plunking down my hard earned money. Got a good deal on the TV...or so I thought. I have purchased other TV's before and never had problems with them, so I am thinking...why spend the money on a warranty for my projection TV. Bad move...$799 down the drain! Sounds like they don't stand behind their product per a previous post. Akai won't be brand that I consider again."
+13793,2,Inspiring and awesome!,"The Gaither Red Rock Homecoming DVD, set in the Red Rock Amphitheatre in Colorado will lift your spirits to new heights--as high as the breathtaking mountains of Colorado seen in it. I have watched many of the Gaither Homecoming videos, but this one is by far the best that I have seen. With spectacular scenery of the area around Morrison, CO and careful selection of songs and groups, it will touch your heart and senses. The song Gloria has written ""Colorado Might Not Be Heaven (but It Must Be On The Way)"" is a melody you can't get out of your mind. It is tied as my favorite with the powerful, yet simple, Mosie Lister song ""Castles In The Sand"" sung by the Booth Brothers. Music simply doesn't get much better than that. Do yourself a favor and add this wonderful DVD to your collection. You do not have to be a southern or bluegrass gospel fan to enjoy it and feel your burdens lifted for a little while."
+13794,2,Profound and Touching,"Hugh Downs has written a brief but powerful combination of advice, memoir, and musings. In turn the book is funny and then philosophical. It will inspire everyone to leave written messages for their own descendants."
+13795,2,The real launchpad for Mccarthy's subsequent work,"This, much more so than the Orchard Keeper, feels like McCarthy's first full work. The narrative focus is much tighter, even if the paths that Culla and Rinthy take are every bit as shiftless and as doomed. But by the end of the book, Mccarthy has stepped well beyond the typical southern Gothic territory he spends most of his first novel treading through. Outer Dark, with it's central incestuous conflict, could easily have been just another novel about screwed-up Appalachian degenerates. Instead it launches itself into a space of morbid ceremonies, nightmarish pseudo-myths, and inexplicable, cyclical violence. It's not southern Gothic or even american Gothic as much as it is Gothic period. It's easy to see the jumping off points for the themes he would explore in Blood Meridian, The Crossing, et al here."
+13796,2,Very Good,This candy purchase was amazing. It came in 2 days after ordering it and I did not even pay for speed shipping. Everyone I gave some to loved it...too bad I have not seen anyone who sells this in stores where I live.
+13797,2,"interesting, will capture your attention, want to learn?","story of vision, perseverence, hard work and belief. howard's idea was pioneering. learn how he thought of growing a chain of high end stores. great read. you will appreciate your Fourbucks coffee even more after diggin these pages."
+13798,2,You can't go back to Kansas,"In July 1975 Noel Edmonds, the breakfast DJ on National Radio 1 here in the UK, made "" July, You're a Woman "" his record of the week. It didn't make it a chart topper,but it did make me go out and by this album. I virtually wore out my vinyl copy over the next 23 years and replaced it with CD at the end of 1998. I have played this album in one format or another every week since 1975 and never tired of it. I just wish I'd been there...Classic songs that are nostalgic without becoming dated and that still make me think new things, even after all these years. For me John Stewart is the greatest of the American singer songwriters and this album is one of his best. Listen, marvel and then explore the rest of his oeuvre."

+13801,2,Berkley Big Water Braid,"I've used quite a few different braids mainly as backing for yellowfin tuna,And have found this line to be the best all round line. Very strong very thin and well priced.The only thing I have noticed is that every aprox 700 yards the line has a factory join, I was a bit paranoid about this at first but after testing the strength of the line where the joins are I found that it never brakes where there is a join. So it seems it's nothing to worry about.I have bought it from Amazon 2 times in 80lb and 65lb and have not had any problems.Thanks."
+13802,1,Just didn't buy it,"I enjoyed the way this novel was written, the word choice and syntax were enjoyable. However, beyond being intrigued by the idea of it, Into the Forest falls short of being even a good read. The characters were not well developed and some things did not make sense. Incest? Please. It is the last thing anyone would want to do after being raped, even if it was helping them feel connect to the only family left.I pretty much skimmed it after that."
+13803,1,kd lang minus the edge,"First I'll state that I think kd lang is one of the most gifted song stylists of our time. Her live concert performances (which I have seen in Canada and the U.S.) are great musical events; charming, witty, electrically charged and lots of fun. Some of her earlier cds have been brilliant. However, I feel her musical choices in the last few years have lacked imagination and do not sufficiently stretch her as an artist or make us sit up and ACTIVELY listen. She seems to have lost her edge. It's becoming easy listening. Challenge me kd, as you have in the past! Her thrilling talent is much larger than her current material. I appreciate her mission to sing new music but until she finds better material I'd be thankful for a cd of standards from her...to be able to enjoy the full range of her voice and supreme artistry."
+13804,1,Terrible Taylor Thermometer,"For nearly 30 years, I've used Taylor and other brand thermometers for checking the temperature of baby bird food, which must not be too hot or it will burn their delicate crop tissue - and not too cool to where they won't eat enough. I've only had this waterproof thermometer for about a month and it is already not ""dead"", but constantly ""live"" and won't shut off. It's going back on the slow boat to China. It might still be ON if the battery holds out.As others have noted, it is slow compared to other products and other Taylor digital thermometers.The on button was always hard to depress. The readout was ok...no better than any other. I liked the length of it since it fit good inside a mug that is half full. I pray that we can get back to good quality controlled USA made products. I'm so tired of out-of-country JUNK. I try very hard not to buy Chinese or Mexican products, but it's almost unavoidable. If I can do without them, I do. I thought Taylor was US made. Not so!"
+13805,1,Waste of money and time,I bought this book because the title suggested that it would have a good comparison of many enterprise architecture standards available that would guide us to shortlist and then choose one of them. To my surprise I did not find any comparison of such standards. The book lists various standards but there is hardly any specific information highlighting strengths or weaknesses. No doubt that the subject itself is dry but the author does not help to make it any interesting. Neither the book has any flow that will give you structured information nor is a valuable resource even as a reference.I found better information on the internet than that given in this book. I returned my copy back to Amazon.
+13806,1,Magnavox VCR,"I have a Magnavox TV that is 14 years old. I had a Magnavox VCR which was 16 years old. The TV is still going strong, and the VCR quit about a month ago. I ordered another Magnavox VCR because of my past success with the brand. This VCR is a cheap piece of junk. It is made in China and it did not work the first day I had it. I am saddend that Magnavox has abandoned quality products for cheap labor. I will look for another brand of VCR. Stay away from this junk. I would give it 0 stars if that were possible."
+13807,2,Worth every penny,"This book is not just for Vietnam wives, but the veteran, his family and anyone who wants to be informed about PTSD. It examines how the disorder is developed and how it affects the victim and everyone around him/her. The goal is to gain insight about how PTSD can be recognized, treated and ultimately lived with in a manageable state. It is clearly written and can be understood by non-professional people."
+13808,1,Some possibly good ideas,"If you've traded before and already understand limit orders and bid/ask sizes, you can skip the first 125 pages. In the remaining 100 pages, there are good discussions of the motivations of specialists and how to work with or around them. There are three possibly useful ideas that are explained with only partial descriptions of potential problems and issues.The main idea of trading for a 1/16 point gain may work most of the time, but since the typical loss is likely to be 1/8 to 1/4 point, it needs to work over 80% of the time to be successful. Once this stragegy is widely used, it's success rate will go down. One suspects the author decided he could make more money writing this book than by continuing to pursue this purportedly successful strategy (no data on past success rates is presented)."
+13809,2,It doesn't get any better than this,"Cruelty will get you nowhere...I've been a big supporter of Cyndi since the very beginning. I wasn't real Gun Ho when I found out that she was doing a standards CD. I couldn't of been more wrong. Her intrepretation is flawless, and the songs show us a Cyndi we're not used to hearing. She must of needed a long good rest after this, because she drains every ounce of emotion into this CD. Her voice is honestly captivating and reaches amazing levels that few out there could match. Not only is she so giving to her fans in her outpouring of gratitude for all the millions who have supported her (I've met her, and she is the most incredibly down to earth celebrity I've ever had the chance to meet), but she is an immensely talented singer whose voice will be as enduring and strong as her fan base."
+13810,1,A complete waste of time,"If our military was actually run the way Brown presents here, I am moving. Breaking the chain of command is commonplace, as is firing without any orders. The purpose may be to add excitement, but realism must come first. In addition, the characters were less than one-dimensional: two of the three woman characters use their sexual wiles to seduce men (one of them the president!) into changing their minds, and the third is the pregnant mother figure who kisses every man in the book on the cheek. A model looking senator named Finegold? The combat sequences are first rate but the characters need to be real before the story can be."
+13811,1,Loved it until the band broke.,"The watch seemed great and I loved it, but sadly it didn't make it even a year. The band broke at the base of the watch where it connects to the watch itself. The underside of the watch is plastic and broke without capability of repair. Broke at night while I was asleep, thus not the good of quality. Would be a great watch if the plastic was a metal."

You would think that the most important aspect of quality control for an alarm clock is to keep good time... If you have to be somewhere important in the morning and can't afford a one hour margin of error, get another alarm clock."

+13817,2,The Best Book Ever Written for Small Business Owners,"I have been in advertising for over 30 years and I can tell you that this is the best book I have ever read on the subject, and believe me, I've read them all. I first read this book in 1995 and immediately bought a case of the 33 Rules to give to my clients. The clients that read the book and followed the 33 Rules enjoyed tremendous sales increases. They say it was the best gift they had ever received. Especially powerful are what the authors call the Real Issues, such as how to develop a specific growth objective and a system for holding your advertising expenditures absolutley accountable. My advice, read the book, follow the rules and watch your sales grow."
+13818,2,Great Classic Movie,"Sean Penn saying ""Hey, dude"" is enough reason to watch this gem. I'm currently reading the Fast Times at Ridgemont High book and the movie is soooo close! It's fun to see Nic Cage, Judge Reinhold (after Stripes), Jennifer Jason Leigh, Eric Stoltz, Forest Whitaker and more before they became famous. Yes, it touches on sensitive subjects, but overall, it isn't smutty or dirty as others such as Porky's and such have mastered. It's touching and you root for everyone, even Damone.Take a couple hours off and remember or find out what the late '70s/early '80s really were like!"
+13819,1,Inhumane Movie,"I have not seen Flicka because I have read several reputable reports that at least two horses died very inhumanely in the making of this movie. If you care about horses, you should research the claims for yourself and hopefully you won't rent or purchase this movie."
+13820,1,very diappointed,The author expresses his oppinion about preachers and teachers from the beginning of the book however he doesn't seem to distinguish that it is men only who are called to be preachers and teachers therefore a person who believes this idea has a cheap ideal of christ and his headship and between male and female which is a shame.

+13824,1,Gosh this IS what i call - boredom.,"The only good tracks in this album are 'Trouble' and 'Yellow', and the rest of them are just boring fillers. I almost fell asleep by listening to this cd and the singer's voice starts to get really annoying and boring after awhile. by the way have I mentioned that all the songs on this cd sound the same? no, I haven't? well, now i'm mentioning it..."
+13825,1,Yuck,"These pads start off providing initially strong braking performance, however this quickly degrades as the pad material wears onto the rim, highly degrading braking performance creating an unsafe situation; moreover, it makes the rims absolutely filthy. They make something of a grinding noise when they touch the rim. Avoid these pads!"
+13826,2,Surprising sleeper,"I really was happy to discover Never Forever. Vera is excellent in this, and the complexity of the issues and relationships is engrossing. Well worth the watch."
+13827,2,Sony subwoofer,It works very well and is reasonably priced. I am not real picky though. I like how it automatically goes into standby mode to save energy.
+13828,2,Berlitz Rush Hour Spanish,"Sure, the jingles are a little corny, but the repitition and presentation make it very easy to learn the basic words and phrases to get started with Spanish. I'd highly recommend it for any commuter wanting something more than to just pass the time."
+13829,2,Speak: A must buy for teenagers,"Speak is the book your principal doesn't want you to read. It explains highschool completely and honestly. It shows real struggles for a teenage girl and how everything has a was of working itself out in the end. I suggest all teenagers to read this book. I love the strength of the main charactor and how she stands up for herself, even when no one else was around to help."
+13830,1,"very, very weak","It's amazing how weak this album is. The drum programming is tedious and sounds banal as do the riffs and the production. THis is a truly terrible album probably the worst most uninspiring thing I've ever had the mispleasure of hearing. I was so put off by this album I never gave them a second chance so I don't know if their other albums are any good, I do know that Rosetta Stone's Adrenaline and the Sisters of Mercy's - First and Last and Always are infinitely better examples of this programmed drum gothic rock type schtick."
+13831,1,Stopped working after a few plays...,Now granted we did get this used but the reason we bought it was bc my boyfriends game had stopped working. Then when he started playing this one it did the same thing. It must be in how they made the game bc it has happened with several.
+13832,1,Mistake to get this book,I bought this book and found atleast 12 problems wrong in the simple math problem... these were simple problems that if the editor would have looked through would have found. Some of the problems didn't even have the correct answer for a choice!!! Do not get this book!!!!
+13833,2,Best Children's Book!,"Two thumbs way up for this educational children's book!!!! This is a great book from beginning to end. The reader is taken on an action-packed tour of the floor of the New York Stock Exchange through young Harry and Stephanie's eyes, from the opening bell to the closing bell. Harry and Stephanie ring the opening bell, meet Wally the trader, visit the specialists' trading post, and learn about the Dow Jones Industrial Average, stocks, and other basic financial concepts as well! First time author Jennifer Gross triumphs. Kids of all ages will love this educational and fun book!"
+13834,2,Right for the price,Quickly needed a coat rack for a party and this fit the bill. It was cheap and study enough to hold lots of coats and purses. Assembled with help from my 4 year old. It was not a problem!
+13835,1,Dangerous,I bought this since my daughter and I go to the parks often. But was very unsatisfied with the product. We use it for a couple of minutes and had to put it away. My daughter is 16months old and every time she tried to stand up she would slip and fall on her bottom! The Fabric kept on moving under her and making it slippery for any one to try and sit down or walk accross it!Would not recommend it to anyone to purchase!
+13836,2,Great flick,Arrived in good condition in a timely fashion. These films are great fun--good plot twists and lots of action. My only regret is that they are not cose-captioned. Thank you.
+13837,2,Save those little tanks,"Bought this for my table top heater. Normally a 1 gallon tank would last 2-3 hours, which is fine for a night event but after 5-10 days $$$ adds up. Now I can hook my backup propane tank on my grill and heat away all night long without any worries. This think pays for itself in a matter of days. Now I just wish I could use it more often here in AZ. P.S. I regret paying for upgraded shipping since I found out that the distribution warehouse is local."
+13838,2,Highly Descriptive Page Turner,"Fantasy at its best. Time travel across 1600s, 1800s, and 1980s with bizarre and sometimes grotesque characters. The scenes come alive as if you were there. With adept historic detail, he creatively weaves a chase across time travels with fluctuating characters. Expect only the unexpected as he concludes with a vivid, wild, seemingly cataclysmic ending. I couldn't stop turning the pages."
+13839,1,Inferior To The Original,"This is an almost word for word remake of the 1986 film ""Manhunter."" While watching this one I kept asking myself why. Why did someone decide to remake a prefectly good film? This remake adds nothing, in fact it is inferior to Manhunter in many ways. Poor casting is just the beginning of the problem. I never bought Anthony Hopkins as a psycho in any of these in the series. In this one he plays it way over the top in an almost cartoonish manner. Ed Norton does an OK job as Will Graham, but this role could have been done equally well by anyone. Most annoying is Ralph Fiennes as the Tooth Fairy. This guy sleepwalks through the role and is about as authentic as a wooden nickel. The film concludes with a lame ""he's not really dead"" cliche. This was the choice to make it different from Manhunter? Silly. Two stars for the always interesting Harvey Keitel. Skip this one and rent the far superior Manhunter instead."
+13840,1,Corrupt,"The cable is exactly what I was looking for but, unfortunately, as soon as I connected it to my computer a message popped up saying the device was corrupt."
+13841,2,HARD,"When this came out I was eleven, I think. I didn't think it could get much heavier/faster than this album. Wow.Chuck Schuldiner was a modern-day Mozart. He was the epitome of pioneer.Steve DiGiorgio is an INSANELY sick bass player. Sadus/Testament, anyone?Paul Masvidal is the perfect compliment to Chuck's wicked sick solos and riffing.Sean Reinert is so underrated. He is, in my opinion, one of the best metal drummers around.Anyhow - Fast, Progressive, SUPER Heavy-Crazy-Melodic Death Metal. This album most definitely belongs in your death metal collection. After all, Chuck helped invent it!In a nutshell, a must have for any true metal fan.R.I.P. Chuck"
+13842,2,Quintessential Tori,"Never do I get tired of listening to this album. It's the first one I heard and has remained, after 6 years, my favorite. Poetry to music. There are so many MOMENTS in these songs. So many moods. The ones that shine: Pretty Good Year, Bells for Her, Cloud on My Tongue, Baker Baker, Space Dog, and Yes, Anastasia. My favorite."
+13843,1,An Empire Divided is an Apt Sub-title,"Unfortunately, the division is between the cash paying customers, and the Sony / Lucas arts Bean Counters. I have been playing, and I cancelled my account as of last night, due to absolutely no customer service.There are many bugs and problems with this game, which is based on Star Wars only in licensing the names and sounds. Perhaps, if they actually finished beta, and released something that was 75 or 85% functional, it would be worth a glance at, but as it is, you are paying for no service, a great deal of boredom, a broken economy, broken gameplay, and very little to do with actual Star Wars.Two thumbs down"
+13844,1,Pissed at misrepresentation!,"I didn't receive a book, not the paperback edition I ordered. I received something they called a ""binder-ready"" edition. That term was only found on the packaging after I finally received it. Nowhere in the online order did it say I was ordering, not a book, but just loose copies of the pages, that I would then have to binder myself--NOT WHAT I ORDERED BECAUSE NOT WHAT I WANTED!I feel very deceived and wasted my time ordering, waiting, shipping back, and finaly buying what I wanted elsewhere. I used to trust Amazon, now I feel betrayed and unable to trust them. That kind of information is critical and should be explained in the information--before--purchasing! Shame on Amazon!"
+13845,1,Not worth the money,"I did my research on key locators because I wanted to get one that was effective enough to remedy my fiance's perpetual key-finding problem. This key finder worked the first few times sporadically and then, after less than a month, completely ceased to work.I do not recommend that you purchase this product."
+13846,2,work boots,I bought these boots for a xmas gift for my son. They arrived in good time and were well packed. They are sturdy and very comfortable. I would definately recommend them.
+13847,2,Nice little tool!,"I've owned one of these for years and, yes, they're made in China. All Buck products that I own are made there...in the Buck factory and over seen by Buck personel for quality control. I know because I called the Buck Company and talked to them. I bought mine directly from the Buck Knife Company and it came out of the box pretty sharp, however I did touch it up with a file to make it a bit sharper. The one I have is very similar to the one in the picture and is a ""backpacking model with a hollow plastic handle that can really take it! So if you like Buck products like I do then this just might be the hand ax for you!"
+13848,1,Just in the middle....,"I purchased this book to help me configure SBS. Unfortunately, the information provided is just too general and high level for that purpose. The author has added a number of screenshots to illustrate the wizards. I don't think that the book adds much value over and beyond the information provided by the wizards.The book may be a reasonable buy if you consider purchasing SBS: the book provides somewhat of an overview of what SBS can do for your organization. However, the book provides very little what you could not easily and quickly obtain from the public domain."
+13849,1,Reads like a movie script for a shoot em up movie.,Story stumbles as the characters stumble through the events in the book. Prose is often appealing but there is no plot development. I do not recommend this book.
+13850,2,A definitive Guide,"Alex Moore's book is the bible for international style. For those who dance American smooth, you'll recognize some of patterns are quite similar. The Quickstep features lock steps, much like the Argentine Tango. Judges use this book as a guide to rate technique. The slow Fox Trot and slow Waltz are similar, and require training to do well. The cover of the book shows an Argentine Tango figure, which doesn't make sense. The book includes useful amalgamations.I teach at Crystal Ballroom Studio in San Jose, CA. This book is useful to me; I found the material easy to grasp. Students who want to learn ballroom dancing will NOT find this book useful. They will need a qualified instructor."
+13851,2,gordon ramsey and keeping it simple,I have to say im very happy I been dieing for his Risotto recipe and finally I found it in this book. His wild mushroom risotto and lobster spagatti. The recipes are both in metric and american measurements. There is a section that tells you what you need in your pantry and gives a list of what everyone should keep in their kitchen. This is a sign of a good cookbook when it is just not a list of recipes but also on techinques on how to cook.This is a must for any Ramsey enthusiastic who loves his famous know recipes.
+13852,2,"Great light, great beam.","This is a great light. There are other LED's with a higher lumen. However, this light has a great beam that focuses the LED muchbetter than any other light I had in the past. It is very sturdy, much like other angle lights, and also has a low and a flashsetting.A bit of a downside is the cartridge used for the batteries. It encloses the batteries inside the light housing and it requiresgentle handling as the little clips holding it close look like they can break easily. But that would not keep me from purchasingthis light again. Which I won't have to though since it is very durable :-)."
+13853,1,Not What I Was Expecting,"This film started off great but slowly sunk into pits of disappointment. Joss Whedon needs to learn how to edit himself. I will say, it was worth watching once... You never know who's going to show up."
+13854,2,magnetic pedaler,Great for people who must exercise knees but don't have much room. Perfect for RV use. Wish it had something to attach it to the floor because it does move around a bit. I still like it.
+13855,2,Laugh 'Til It Hurts,"I saw some parts of the show when it came on HBO and was in stitches. So naturally when the opportunity came to purchase the DVD I was all over it. I had no idea just how funny Kat Williams is until I got the chance to see him really ""wildin' out"". This is a tape you will be able to watch over and over again. The jokes never get old."
+13856,2,New user...,The capsule is easy to take and seems to help my husband with ease of movement in a damaged knee..
+13857,2,Good deal but shop around,"For the money the picture quality is very good. The only shortfall is that the emissions spec is MPRII, which is the minimum.Also, there's rebates (source intentionally left out) with lower shipping charges. One rebate just ended, but a second is still available.If you have an opportunity to preview one, that would be a good idea. I found it to be superior in image quality to the newer 775e, which is perplexing given they most probably use the same tube."
+13858,2,Awesome product,"This pruduct is amazing. Not only is it very comfortable for my son since it offers extra padding, but it's also very safe. I researched all the carseats before purchasing one and Britax has one of the highest safety ratings. At first I was hesitating to buy it because it was too expensive, but Amazon had a really great offer and I only had to pay $200. The only con is that it's hard to put him and get him out of the seat and you just have to make due but you get used to it. Also the button to release the buckle is very hard. But all in all, I am pleased that I bought this seat. I highly recommend this seat to moms specially new moms like me who didn't know any better."
+13859,2,She loves it!,I got this for my girlfriend for Christmas and she absolutely loves it. So far I have not heard any complaints.
+13860,1,shedding problem,"When I purchased this dog bed I expected it to be thin and otherwise a little cheap, but I didn''t expect the shedding from the bed to be worse than the shedding from the dog! I hope the shedding is temporary!"
+13861,1,horrible sound,If you are looking for quality sound for yourself or anyone you plan to buy this for look else where. This is a terrible product as far as performance.Now on the good side they have a nice feel.But if i want ear muffs i can get some real comfy ones for under this price.Pleases don't purchase this item you'll regret it.
+13862,2,Super cute,"My grandkids just love this one. They have to watch it over and over.The 2 year old laughs, claps her hands and is totally engaged. The 4 year old sings along with animation. This video is truly fun and educational.I highly recommend this for all preschooler."
+13863,1,What a Lemon,This is a true lemon.It does not hold the cold for more 10 minutes.It very clumsy do deal with.Luiz
+13864,2,SAVE that H2O!!!,When you have to wait for hot water and it seams like minutes....this point-of-use mini hot water tank is your answer.
+13865,1,Why not Ms. Douglas,"I love this movie and own the DVD, and i would have bought the CD if it had Ileana Douglas singing. This is not to be disrespectful to the artist on the cd but i really loved what Ms. Douglas did in the movie."
+13866,2,My NEW Favorite Movie,"The book was awesome, and the movie definately did justice! Most movies that come from books suck, but this movie is now one of my all times favorites. It ranks right up there with the Silence of the Lambs and The X-Files: Fight the Future."
+13867,2,I disagree with reviews I read here.,"I bought a DeLonghi thermal carafe drip coffeemaker..DC77TC.. last weekend and I love it. Some coffee was left in the pot for 8 hours without additional heating. The coffee was still warm enough to drink...and it remained fresh since it was only heated when brewed. Obviously, the coffee was hot enough, but coffee in drip makers only heats to a max 160 degrees in the hottest automatic drip maker. The people who complained must have been accustomed to a manual drip, regular percolator or institutional machine. This product performed as I expected for what it is, but it is not an institutional machine and, therefore, will not perform like one...and it's nowhere near the same cost as an institutional machine."
+13868,2,"Unique, Harmonious, Uplifting","Sawyer's view of the world may be a little starry- eyed, but his implementation is flawless. This album should be in everyone's collection. I never leave on a long trip without a copy on tape. The world influence is evident. The pure skill at arrangement in ""I Know"" and ""Spoken Word"" is impressive. The voices virtually double as instruments."
+13869,1,metalli...!,"if this was any other band, this cd would've never been released. the production is terrible. the mix is so muddy, you cannot hear the guitars (and speaking of which, where are kirk's blistering solos?). james sounds like he gargled a bucket of rusty nails before singing (or should i say straining).i really wanted to like this cd too, cuz it's been way too long since metallica put out a good cd.go buy anthrax's 'we've come for you all', or some meshuggah instead."
+13870,1,Contrived,"This CD is NOT country music. It is slick, contrived, manufactured, pop marketed to those people who THINK they like country music but don't. That it has been so hugely successful is one of the saddest commentaries on our culture here at the end of the 20th century."
+13871,1,Customer Service anyone?,"I purchased version 4.0 of this software and loved it. About seven months ago I purchased a new Sony external fire-wire CDRW that wasn't supported by 4.0. When 5.0 came out I was excited to get the software but surprised that my burner wasn't on the list of supported devices. I wrote the appropriate email a message asking if or when my drive would be supported and recieved an automated response about my message being handled in the order it was recieved. A month later I again wrote them and stated I hadn't received an answer. Two weeks later I'm here on Amazon giving the product a bad review because I still haven't received a response. Just a message stating that my drive isn't supported and not expected to be supported in the near future would have been fine. If you are thinking of getting this product, be sure to check the web page to be sure your drive is compatible with the software.. and don't expect customer service/support...."
+13872,2,So Good!,"These are the songs I grew up with. Fell in love with, and out of love with, but always loved Stevie's masterful style and soul. He is a true Wonder."
+13873,1,Not enough detail or organization.,"THE MUSEUM OF HOAXES is a book based on a website collecting a variety of tall tales, con games, fantastic stories and urban legends. The problem with the book is that the haphazard way the stories are put together and their general brevity works on a website, but are far from acceptable in a book. Very little investigation is done into the actual circumstances of each hoax and the prose lacks any variation or even a good sense of humor. The best thing about this book is that it might pique a reader's interest to investigate some of the stories behind these little glimpses into mankind's collective gullibility. Other than that, I can't find any reason to recommend this ""web book."""
+13874,1,NOT A GHOST OF A LAFF,"A strange, bizarre and ultimately sad misfire of an alleged pirate comedy starring the sometimes brilliant Peter Sellers and directed by Peter Medak, who two years earlier directed the terrific ""Ruling Class"" Starring Peter O'Toole.Obviously something horrible went wrong here during the writing and production. I'm sure the behind the scenes story of this debacle is much better drama and comedy than the finished product."
+13875,2,Cheap insurance for your filter,"Check out my other review for the K&N filter. I use this about once a year to maintain my filter. First I hose off the filter, shake the excess water off, then I apply the cleaning agent, and rinse and let dry overnight (or a few hrs in hot sun). DO NOT over oil your filter and you will get many years of use out of it. As they say a little goes a long way. Im going on 4+ years now for my kit."
+13876,2,I like this keyboard a lot!,My keyboard at work is so easy to use that I had to find something better for home. This one is actually really good for the price. It's not as flat as the one I have at work (sony vaio) but it is still really easy to use compared to most and it doesn't take up much room on my desk which is nice. I type extremely fast so I was looking for something that would keep up. This one does. The keys are fairly flat and light. I'm glad I bought it.
+13877,2,grady nutt at his best,"The late great Grady Nutt was far more than his Hee-Haw persona. This little easy read book gives some insight into the true genius of the man, presenting biblical insights in a fresh and human way."
+13878,1,No unique debris handling capability,"The statement in the product description ""This unique Wayne utility pump passes 1/2in. solids such as leaves, pebbles, and other debris without clogging"" prompted me to purchase this product to clean out the debris remaining after raking the bottom of my garden pool. This pump was useless for that purpose and was no better than other sump pumps that I previously used. It functioned very well on clear water but had no unique debris handling capabilities."
+13879,1,Unevenly grinds beans,"This grinder does not work well if you use a French press to make coffee. It grinds the beans very unevenly - some large pieces and some very fine dust, even on the ""Percolator"" (coarsest) setting. When you brew the coffee the fine dust goes right through the metal filter and ends up in your cup.On the plus side, it is easy to clean and maintain. It may work fine if you use paper filters."
+13880,2,MISTAKEN NUPTIALS,"Yusaku can't seem to make up his mind who he really likes. He loves Kyoko but she never really shows any interest in him. So his only current alternative is Kozue, and he's on the verge of breaking up with her, that is, if she IS his girlfriend. Ah, things are getting complicated. And just being in her company is sending Kyoko all the wrong signals. Speaking of wrong signals, in a moment of misunderstanding, the other occupants of Ikkoku tell Yusaku that Kyoko is getting married to the big hunk tennis coach Mitaka which might just cause a final rupture between her and Yusaku!Volume 3 of this funny but warm-hearted series is excellent and falls right in line with Takahashi's other masterful installments. The art has more of a western feel and should appeal to any reader. The characters are the real stars as usual and breath with humanity. Their reactions are obvious, and because of this, human. Great book. Great artist and storyteller!"
+13881,1,Nice Little Toy,"Well, it's cute, but you don't want to jam or even practice with it.All I can say is, don't buy it for practice reasons. Maybe for a youngster that is 1st starting out, but then if he or she practices with this pedal, it may encourage not to play music. Yep, that's how bad it is.It is heavy duty except for the knobs. Yuk Yuk"
+13882,1,A nightmaire with no end.,Laissez Faire's Hands off was an disterblingly bad CD. Witch is no real surprise since Laissez Faire them selfs are nothing special. Lissing too this CD is like a horrbile nightmare witch you can't awake from. If I where you I would stay as far from this CD and Laissez Faire that you can.
+13883,1,UPDATE...GREAT FOR BREASTFED babies,"My baby is transitioning to cow""s milk from being breastfed and these cups are just perfect in flow. It is just the perfect suction and I don't worry about chocking with any fluid I give her. The no spills are a huge plus too.I still believe what I wrote above, however, I was going by a model I bought at WALMART when I got the one from Amazon it is completely different and no wonder people hate it. DOES NOT WORK. buy from Walmart instead."
+13884,1,Be warned--this isn't a 2-disc special edition...it's a cheap release,"enough people have reviewed the merits of the movie, I just want to let people know, this particular listing (ASIN: B00004Z1GI ), as of the date of this review, is described by amazon as the 2-disc special edition. It's not. It's a cheapo single disc release by an obscure company, and it pretty much looks like it was transferred from a VHS tape in full screen. Definitely not worth the listed price of 17.99."
+13885,1,Returned,"I've wanted one of these for a long. When I finally purchased this one and pulled it out of the box I couldn't believe how damaged the red plastic was. From scratches all over, to cracks around the base. Sent it back the same day I got it."
+13886,1,What it's like carries the album,"What it's Like is definitely the best song from this cd. No disputes with that. It carries a powerful message and is an enjoyable beat. Unfortunately, it is not representative of the rest of the cd. The majority of is rap of lower quality. You'll want to preview the other songs before purchasing this one, because they sound to me like a one hit wonder so far."
+13887,2,Awesome,This CD is one of Bob Rivers' best works!! It was awesome especially the Twisted Chipmunk Song and Chipmunks roasting on an open fire.
+13888,1,Don't waste your money,"I bought this pump because it seemed to get great reviews. Big mistake. It takes FOREVER and all that hand pumping is so tiring and frustrating that my milk wouldn't let down properly. Invest in a Medela. It's so worth the money. I guess this pump would be ok if you only pump once in a great while, but if you pump regularly don't waste your time with this one unless you have a tremendous amount of patience and want to spend all your time with either a baby or a pump attached to your breast."
+13889,2,Brilliant!,"Finally a documentary that demonstrates how Old World social networking has played a crucial part in global economics, far longer than we thought. Far before Google was a thought, She's done it HER way using an intuitive combination of social skills. For 60 years,The Queen has managed to ensure Great Britain and all its Commonwealths remain on our economic radar as well as securing a warm place in our hearts. This successful combination of hard work, exposure, remaining informed, served with a side-dish of wisdom & neutrality have helped several Prime Ministers, Parliament, UK and the world to maintain unity, peace, and spur economic development. Her gifts just keep giving. Fascinating. Waiting patiently for episode II."
+13890,2,a film which hits home for me,"This review is for the Criterion Collection DVD edition of the film. As a cancer survivor, I feel for the woman in this movie.This film occurs in almost real-time like the TV series 24. The 90 minute film covers the events between 5 and 7 PM as a woman awaits the results of a biopsy. She goes through town and meets various people. The film has great acting and has a full-color sequence at the beginning of the film when cleo is seeing a Tarot card reader in an attempt to predict what will happen to her. The original French title of the film is ""Cléo de 5 à 7""The Criterion DVD does not have any special features which is rather unusual for a Criterion Collection DVD."
+13891,1,Was okay read to about 1/2 way,"Then just goes down hill... Starts to go into too much lists/details and drags on and on... Kinda gets too ""corny"" for lack of a better word."
+13892,2,On Target for age group,"The pictures in this package are fascinating and my 7 year old daughter, who loves math,has played this exclusively for the last month. The math is just the right level to provide a doable challenge. It is rather short (or else we are missing something), but my daughter has played it over and over and enjoyed as much each time. It does have a level adjustment, but we have not used that yet. (Note: I like this better than Math Blaster 6-7)."
+13893,2,Birthday,"My mother loves this guy, and she was excited to see that she owned his CDs forever. Thanks for giving me the best birthday present for her!"
+13894,2,"Much better than ""Manhunter""!","Much more watchable than ""Manhunter"". This film has style, is well-acted, and doesn't feel so ""1980's"", unlike ""Manhunter"". Plus, it features Sir Anthony doing his thing as Hannibal.Highly recommended."
+13895,2,Love it,"My husband and I use this stuff to add essential minerals to our diet. In the past when we had reverse osmosis water we used it to remineralise it. Recently I used it as a magnesium supplement (it's fairly high in magnesium). My husband just likes the taste it gives to water. I can't say we have noticed any health benefits yet (but then, do you always see a result with vitamins either?). Either way, it seems like a good thing to be taking and we like it so we're back for more. One more thing that I like, I like how it's in the perfect balance of minerals you'd find in nature (minus the sodium)...Because of that I feel that it's more beneficial than just taking random minerals. Like some viewers mentioned, I didn't like the taste at first (my husband did). I'd suggest just make sure it's thoroughly diluted and cut right down until you like it or get used to it."
+13896,1,sounds like it's been dubbed from a cassette tape,"thankfully i borrowed this DVD from my local library before purchasing - the sound quality is awful! i speak cantonese, but not mandarin, and was hoping to pick up some basics with my kids. the sound quality would make it nearly impossible for anyone to hear the 4 tones used in mandarin. this fatal flaw destroys the great educational potential of this dvd series - it's hard to learn a language without hearing the words pronounced clearly. that's unfortunate, because my 6yo kids found the simple cartoons entertaining (they are on par with old sesame street cartoons if tells you anything), and they had to read the english subtitles to understand what was going on."
+13897,2,Can't wait for my sequel to arrive :->,"I loved this book. It's really good. Precious comes from the streets trying to support her and her mom who has a bad drug habbit. Long story short, she tries to make something of/for herself and wants to hook up with someone who can make her Hood Queen. When she meets Nico, they become an item until she finds out he's been playing her, so she sets out for revenge.Without giving too much away, she takes care of him, only to have things blow up in her face down the track when she has tried to put her past behind her. She meets someone better than Nico who she truly loves, but she might have it all taken away from her if Nico has anything to do with it. Precious is street smart and savy and I can't wait to see what happens in the next book, - I'm sure that will be as good."
+13898,1,A Great Imitation of Their Own Style,"Reading between the grooves, it sounds like there was a contractual obligation to produce a new album. Great playing. Innovative compositions. It's hard to pinpoint why these great musicians somehow just didn't manage to get this bird in the air. However, nothing about it really inspires, entertains or surprises."
+13899,1,What is point?,"When I started to read this book, I was enjoying it. I thought it was new view on life and art. As soon as I moved forward, I realize than nothing new was introduced, except book appearance (very inconvenient by the way). If you want to learn drawing and see world around you differently, better to take book ""The New Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain"" by Betty Edwards (brilliant book). If you looking for philosophy or meditation, I think you will find better books around. Also original pictures in the book do not impress.Update: Just want to add. Author wow to draw without looking at drawing. He provide as an example his pictures with a lot of details and good enough quality. He just forgot to mention to naive readers that he spent last 20 - 30 years in professional drawing. So he!!! can draw automatically without looking at the paper, because he was doing it for most of his life."
+13900,2,Old blood-n-guts comes to bigger than life,"Anyone interested in the military history of the second world war or the life of George Patton will enjoy this work. It does a fair job in historical accuracy of the events that surrounded his contraversial career and demonstrates the character, flaws and all, that made him so. Though Mr. George C. Scott's voice matches the General's character more than his actual voice, the casting choice was otherwise a perfect match. A fantastic biographical work of the scrappy general."
+13901,1,Utterly Racist !!!!!!!!,"I read this book a couple of days ago..Behold, another 19th century eurocentric racist nonsense..No person of color should dupe themselves so much as to follow this religion that teaches one to self-hate himself because of his skin color..This is why I am an ATHEIST !!!!!!!!"
+13902,1,"Too fast, too bad","I have read the majority of James Patterson's books. I had been a huge fan. It appears with The Lake House that he is simply trying to churn books out too fast which has severely hurt his writing. This book had a transparent plot, if you want to call it a plot. I almost didn't finish the book, but I kept thinking it would get better. It's too bad. I really enjoyed the past Patterson's books and hope this is not a sign of future writings."
+13903,1,"Uh, close, kind of","I was really excited about this CD because I love UFO, and I also love Thin Lizzy. Now, after Thin Lizzy's implosion, Grand Slamm emerged with Phil Lynott (RIP) and Laurence Archer. This band had some promise, yet never truly recorded. Fast forward about 10 years and Lawrence Archer is now UFO's guitarist! However the album is WEAK! Save your money and buy something else. This is pop, not rock, and not metal. This really cannot be called UFO as it truly is a UFO tribute band in my estimation. It is hard to criticize the boys, but at any rate KEEP ON ROCKIN'!"
+13904,1,Reality check indeed!!!!,"I dug this CD up and am listening to it right now. I put it away several months ago in distaste, writing it off as another overrated contrived piece of folky emo-trash. So I picked it up again after hearing and reading about the incessant praise given to this....album. Don't get me wrong, I love to sit around the house and mope to the stylings of Jeff Magnum or Nick Drake or even Sparklehorse, but this is just ridiculous. The music wraps itself effectively around daddy Oberst's warbly, ""Robert Smith"" (for lack of a better comparison) vocals, but do you seriously believe this 23 year old from Omaha is as tortured as his lyrics pronounce? Again, I like intense personal music (older Palace Music, for instance), but this just feels artificial to me, like the typical cry for attention. Blah! This was written as a warning for those who stumble upon this band and read nothing but rave reviews, and think, hey why shell out the 17 bucks if everyone seems to like it? Be forewarned."
+13905,1,Don't Believe The Da Vinci Code Comparisons,"I purchased this book on a 7-hour layer in O'Hare after reading a WSJ review that suggested this book is potentially another ""Da Vinci Code"".Don't be misled. This is a very boring book in my view. Were it not for the Da Vinci Code comparison, I probably would have given up turning the pages, instead I kept on reading assuming it ""got better"".It never does. In fact the chapters are effectively the same time and time again. Guy + girl chasing vampire. Meet someone new. This person usually has superior information and a vested interest in pursing Dracula too, yet has never done so... so they hook up.Skip it."
+13906,2,Great book for new writers,I have the audiobook version of this book. I wanted to get the print version so that I could make notes and read it again. This is a good book for those who want to begin writing anything. It was also interesting to get insights into how Stephen King became a great writer. He is very candid about his parts of his life both good and bad. If you're interested in writing or want to know how Stephen King approaches the craft read this book.
+13907,1,fringe disk review,Everything would have been fine but the 2nd disk was blank because the dvd player would not recognize it as a disk - returned item.
+13908,1,can't get replacement part,"I ordered this canopy as a gift and it arrived with a broken piece. We have called the manufacturer and waited on hold or been transferred and had our call dropped about 10 times in the last few months. We have still never been able to reach customer service. After having our call dropped while being transferred we thought we got smart and asked for the number directly, we were then promptly disconnected. I am sure it is a great product if it comes in working conditions, but don't count on the manufacturer standing behind this product."
+13909,2,Excellent Purchase,"I found the cd to be and EXCELLENT purchase. I love all songs on cd, track 4 is defintely my favorite. I am so glad that he chose R&B; to be his prefer sound. Justin has an excellent voice and he's the glue that holds N'Sync together. Justin defintely has the R&B; sound and style. I love his cd and looking forward to purchasing other solo CD's by this artist.Thanks JUSTIN!"
+13910,2,Lots of fun,My mother got this for my son as a gift. We put the transmitter outside on our back porch under the awning. Our reciever gets the signal without any trouble at all. We look at it every morning and have found it to be fun to look at. I would recommend this product to anyone who likes to watch changes in the weather.
+13911,1,Doesn't quite live up to the blurb,Bought this to try and learn more about dealing with my home grown meat but got only recipes for odd cuts. The blurbs had mentioned curing meats but the recipes did not address this.
+13912,2,Great Bluegrass Instrumentals!,If you love Shania and bluegrass then this is a must have!You won't regret it!
+13913,2,A nostalgic look at the past,"I purchased this disc because I had seen the movie many years ago and wanted to have a permanent copy. My family and I originally viewed the film because we were from Cleveland, Ohio, where part of the picture was filmed. We were customers of Higbee's Department Store,which is also featured in this movie. Darren McGavin is one of my favorite actors, and he does a wonderful job as the father of the young lad who wants a Red Ryder rifle. This production is a heart-warming, funny and accurate look back at a time when life was simple and fun. It is delightful to watch and I highly recommend it for a look back at Christmas in a time past."
+13914,2,12 out of 17 are the best songs in the soundtrack,"Here are my favorite song in order.1 ONE WEEK2 KIDS IN AMERICA3 ALL-STAR4 ALL MY BEST FRIENDS ARE METALHEADS5 SPILL6 NOWHERE NEAR7 THE IMPRESSION THAT I GET8 HEY DIGIMON9 DIGI RAP10 LET`S KICK UP11 CHANGE INTO POWER12 HERE WE GOI don`t like the hidden soundtracks much,but I truly like ONE WEEK!"
+13915,1,This book runs a fine line between really bad & okay ref.,"I was extremely disapointed after viewing this book. The illustrations are so bad, it's hard to look past it to see the clothing design. I wish the author would have hired an experienced fashion illustrator to compose the drawings in a sketching style of the time...1960's. I do have to give the author credit for the layout of the design progression per year. The book did contain many design references/illustrations for accessores. This is rare, as there are not many accessory design referece books.last words; Okay reference for the 60's era of clothing & accessory design resource, but horrific illustration!!!m donat fashion designer"
+13916,2,Awesome,Overtime my skin has become smoother and more even toned. You start seeing results after the first use. Ive been using this products for about 3 months and im glad i found it.
+13917,2,Absolute escapism to another world,"I cracked this book and by page 2 was totally immersed in a heart-racing, scary story with characters I cared about, and a world (TV News broadcast) that fascinated me. Completely satisfying fast thrilling read."
+13918,2,Excellent quality,"An RCA cable may be an RCA cable, but the quality of this cable, despite its low cost, is just as good as cables I've paid two, three, or more times the price for. There's no need to waste your money when such a quality RCA cable is available for such a low price."
+13919,2,Very Nice Product,This is really nice product which allows me to shoot non stop video for more than 3 hrs.
+13920,2,"The ""Area 51"" series remains strong","Robert Doherty's fifth book in the ""Area 51"" series is just as strong an entry as the other four. Doherty (a/k/a Bob Mayer) continues to weave a very imaginative and entralling story about the role that two warring alien cultures played in the development of life on planet Earth.The protagionist of the series, Mike Turcotte, is his heroic and overall ornery self again in ""The Grail"". The other now-familar names to the fans of this series all play important parts again in this book.In simple terms, let me say that fans of this series will not be disappointed! If anything, ""The Grail"" is actually a stronger and consistently more entertaining read than the two previous ""Area 51"" novels - The Sphinx and The Mission. The Grail recaptures a lot of the cameraderie and action of the first two books.The ""Area 51"" is a book series that allows the reader great escapism. The always-imaginative Doherty has done it again!"
+13921,1,Deeply disappointing,"Being a pianist myself, and finding the original 1955 Gould recording a perennial inspiration, I was really looking forward to this new issue. A) the SACD format; B) the new technology of re-performance; and C) the idea of having the static cut out - all attracted me quite a bit. But the actual quality of the product was, from a musician's point of view, poor. None of Gould's energy comes through in the recording. The sound of the piano is also very electronic and does not give a good musical sense. It may be technically true to the strokes that Gould's fingers made on the piano, but musically it simply falls short. I am reselling the SACD and going to clean my original LP for much better musical enjoyment."
+13922,1,cd sounds better than both sides of this crap,"as with all the SONY/BMG titles on the dualdisc format, this one is also crap, and i will be honest i only buy these so i can return them and complain, i already know they are not enhanced, i figure the more people i complain to, the sooner sony will have to listen, so far BEST BUY, CIRCUIT CITY, MEDIAPLAY, SAM GOODY AND NOT TO MENTION QUITE A FEW OTHERS, already know about this, and i am slowly starting to plant the seed about sony and their lies, so far so good. some of you may think i am being petty, but the bottom line is this:dont call something enhanced when it really isnt, be honest and tell people that the dvd and cd layers are identical. and if enough people dont care than it will be fine, but give people the chance to know before buying. sony continues to make things difficult for the consumer and they should be held accountable.by the way, i love this cd. but the dualdisc sucks!!!"
+13923,1,Krups Burr Grinder,Used this thing a total of about 10 times and it stopped working.Still using my old one from big lots I got for $6 5 yrs ago.Overated as far as noise and ease of use. Container hard to get out sometimes Did not really see any difference in coffee taste.
+13924,2,Helpful info for breastfeeding mom,I received this book from the author in just a few days. I wasn't exactly sure what to expect from this book so I approached it with an open mind. I found that it was filled with alot of helpful information and various helpful suggestions. You can try as many or as few ass you want or none at all. This book has been very helpful to me.
+13925,1,oops,"My wife wrote this in a fit of insomnia at 4:30 in the morning and accidentally posted it under my name. Not too bright, that woman."
+13926,1,DRM = No Purchase!,"The atrocious DRM provided with this version of Spore results in my not purchasing over-the-counter.Nonetheless, I have played the game, and it's not all that - definitely not worth jumping through hoops repeatedly for the sake of some silly DRM..."
+13927,1,"Fairly mediocre revision of Alien; like original, first half is way too slow","People overhyped this movie. It's got good effects, sets. and atmosphere but it takes far to long to get going and so is similar to the original in a negative way."

+13930,1,"lackluster performance, but pretty","This item had obviously been sold before and returned. It came with a note from preveious purchases complaining it was too big - but no instruction book. I made a casserole dish of roasted vegetables that ordinarily cooks in 45 minutes, and it took the entire 45 minutes. Of course I was unable to make the oven go higher that 400 degrees f., whereas I usually cook the dish at 425, so that might have been the problem. Basically, this was a waste of money for me. My two older portable ovens are better, actually."
+13931,2,Watch out dirt and dust !,"I've seen the commercials, I've read the reviews and got it with my 1-click ! I do mostly all my christmas shopping for the kids on Amazon and decided this year it was time for MY gift.It has been almost a month and so far I can't say anything negative about my purchase. My apartment is small and doesnt require any intense vacuuming and my fascination for gadgets out-weigh anything else. (and any other excuse I can give to have one ) No complaints. My daughter turns it on and we sit back and watch it suck up one area of the room or entire roomSif needed. I even turned the roomba on when I thought there was'nt a need and the darn thing picked up a room full of dust !Yes I'm still very excited about it's capabilities but after a few more months of use I'll be writing another review hopefully about how it still works wonderSMy advice to everyone interested is to GET ONE !!"
+13932,1,Shipping off the wall,"This item cast $7.73 and shipping is $7.03, you've got to be crazy to order this item.I own one of these and they are great, help better organize my kitchen and cabinet space, but I won't be held hostage by crazy shipping charges. I have found this item locally, a bit more expensive but if you calculate shipping charges buying locally is a bargain.Word to the wise make sure you check shipping charges before buying here. Its almost like shipping costs are another profit maker for the vendors here."
+13933,1,Hot Stuff?,"The first time I heard Black And Blue it didnt catch me the way the other Rolling Stones albums did. I was really shocked how much their sound changed sounding reggae, disco, and funkish. But in all respects the jamming on the songs was extensive. Black And Blue was released in 1976, this was the first album of Mick Taylor's departure. The new axeman (guitarist) was Ron Wood. I think this album was good for two reasons the jams, and because their was the Rolling Stones. This is one of the worst!"
+13934,1,horrible,"The main characters have no morals and no class, I just didn't care what happended to them. It seems that everyones life fell apart at the end except Vix's, but I felt she just settled and will not be happy with this guy. This book is a waste of time."
+13935,2,Great product,This is an fantastic product. A little heavy but it works great. We went on a road trip and it was great to have in the car with us.
+13936,2,yogi yogi yogi,This book is a beautiful account of this man. Most of us do not live like this...so if looking for something relatable...'LIVE LIKE A FRUIT FLY' by Gabe Berman. Amazing read. :)
+13937,1,Cheap,"I bought this set because I couldn't find Chick anywhere else and I discovered that the cars are made of cheap plastic rather than the nice die-cast like the other cars we have been collecting.It sounds like a good deal, but its not."
+13938,1,Very Disappointing,"Don't waste your time or money on this one. I have come to expect high quality from Brava books, this one should have never been published. The hero and heroine spend little time together and their ""love"" story is very unrealistic. Yes, a certain amount of reality must be suspended when reading these types of books, but this one is beyond ridiculous. Stephanie falls in love with Jack after spending so little time with him. The book is more about Stephanie's friend Venus and her life than it is about Stephanie and Jack. Besides the sub-par plot, the writing is also very weak. Skip this one and try out anything by Shannon McKenna."
+13939,2,Shorter version of Act 1 Finale,Excellent production and singing.But this production uses the short version of the Act I finale so buyers beware - if that matters to you. (I prefer the long version.)
+13940,2,Wonderful!,"I loved this book-- it's so detailed and the way the plot lines interact is fascinating. I've ""read"" it a dozen times, and found something new each time."
+13941,1,Very bad,"I have using the mill of coffee and it does not to say in the specifications of the page the product, has many faults, one of them is that in the position mas thin the wished quality is not obtained, it it is necessary to pass several times until the coffee bean comes moller, another fault is that is obstructed where the grain happens(passes) when you grind a lot of coffee. Definitively this product is not what they say of..."
+13942,2,"Inspires the Rainmakers, Nebraska Guitar Militia, etc.","Mellencamp paved the way for heartland rock, opening the path for bands like the Rainmakers, the Nebraska Guitar Militia, the Starkweathers, etc. Some of it sounds a little hokey today, but most of it holds up awfully well."
+13943,2,A solid recording,"This is a solid recording of Respighi's famous trilogy. The interpretations are fine and the recording quality is excellent. However, I do still prefer Riccardo Muti's recording with the Philadelphia Orchestra. Despite its manifest flaws, Muti's recording has an unparalleled sense of drive that Dutoit does not match here. And trust me, I love Dutoit. I just do not prefer him here."
+13944,1,Broken after a week and a half,"I thought I'd spend $10 on some good earbuds that would last me a little longer than the $2 ones you get at the Dollar Store. But no, I bought JVC Gumys the Monday before last, it's now Friday, and the right speaker is out already. The cheapos lasted at least 4 weeks. You can't expect any damn thing to work any more. This kind of cheap manufacturing is now standard and it's crazy that this is accepted. What a rip off."
+13945,1,Not up to my expectations,"While this product probably works well in very close ranges, my hope was that it could transmit radio signals directly across a 15-ft span. Even after I upped its signal power (a la dubious website instructions), my signal did not improve substantially. I returned the product because it was essentially useless for my purposes."
+13946,2,Just what I was looking for,My daughters and I love gazing up at these stars before bed every night. I remember having these as a child and loving them. They glow so bright and just after a few minutes of the light being on! They even come with mini stickers to stick then with.
+13947,2,Great for the Newbie,"If you're new to the bar or beverage industry, this book will help you understand the basics of managing a bar. It's a little dated but most of the material is still relevant. The copy is large but I think its a filler more than a necessity. Good buy when bought used."
+13948,1,Biovault 2.0 quit working,"I let the battery run down, I replace with new batteries ,now it does not recognize my fingerprint and I can't find a help website.The web site in the handbook does not work."
+13949,1,This book does not do justice to Clarke,"This book does not do justice to ClarkeI don't recommend this book I thought it was boring. The content of science fiction was so low it can hardly be classified as science fiction. If you want to read good science fiction I recommend: 2001 (Clarke), Rendezvous with Rama (Clarke), and The Martian Chronicles (Bradbury)."
+13950,2,A Hybrid Satire/Comedy,I have read a lot of the reviews on this movie which claim that this movie was not funny. I am not quite sure what Black/Stiller were after in this movie but I liked it. There is definitely an uneasy feel for the movie as it seems to sting your emotions with some deep sense of reality of what envy really is. That is why I think I liked it because both characters portrayed their roles so well. Envy is a two sided affair as the other person who has the things or life that you may want but do not have the guts to pursue. The movie is funny in the sense of what envy does to Stiller's character. Black's character never looks beyond the surface of anything and thus is oblivious to Stiller's envy. I think most people can relate to the theme of the movie in their own life. I liked it.
+13951,1,Lots of fun until the last 30 pages.,"I enjoyed this book when I read it about five years ago. It is a well crafted story that was apparently very difficult to finish because Kesey couldn't even do it. Remember how you felt at the end of the movie ""The Abyss""? Get ready for an equally dissapointing finish to a great effort"
+13952,1,Cheap Product,I mounted this sight on my Mossberg 500 Cruiser. After I fired about 100 rounds the sight stopped working. I would mount this laser on low caliber firearms only...
+13953,1,bad design,Check the design of the holster you order to ensure that the clip can withstand the pressure of side torque pulling away from your belt. The slightest brush can break these pivot pins and send the frame and iphone 4 flying to whatever is below. See notes on Cellet as well.[[ASIN: B000I8ELIG BoxWave iPhone 4 Holster Clip]]
+13954,1,repressed memories?,"this book is barely worth the lowest cost on amazon. 1 cent. this topic has been largely rejected by secular psychology and shown over and over again (in the justice system) to be empty and false. this is not worth much more than a way to start a fire in winter. don't waste your time. this has falsely broken up healthy homes and has zero basis in scripture. a sad commentary, but entirely true."
+13955,2,Great Movie!,This movie is older but really good. I recommend for people who like movies such as Tom Sawyer or Clint Eastwood movies.
+13956,1,Cheaply Designed,"I purchased this lamp so that I could expand lighting in my bedroom which is where I use my pc. I had to buy these 4"" halogen bulbs and they would only last a few wks. before they would explode! Finally, the heat from the bulbs cracked the glass dome so rather than be injured, I just threw it away. I purchased it from [...] who I'll never deal with again. So now I've been working in the dark because I cannot seem to find a decent floor lamp w/a dimmer switch and one large energy saving bulb that just plugs right in. I had a friend who found one at a building store but they were out of stock when I looked for one. Usually I have no problems ordering online but there are exceptions to every rule."
+13957,1,Only for the most ardent Peaks fan...,I finally had a chance to sit down and read this book. Unless you are a die-hard Peaks fan who has to know everything about the Laura's life was like up until her death - don't read this. It's very hard to read the erotic dreams that Laura was having (at the hands of her father/BOB) and you can't help but wonder if author Ms. Lynch (David's daughter) perhaps wasn't working through some of her own personal issues in writing it.
+13958,1,Another sale lost due to DRM,"I logged on to Amazon.com with the intent of purchasing this game today, as I, like many of you, have been excited about Spore since it was introduced 3 years ago. But after the long wait, I will not be buying this game with the DRM. No more root kits! We must send a message to these companies that punishing their innocent and loyal customers is NOT the way to fight piracy."
+13959,1,Don't Waste Your Time !!,"It starts off pretty nicely. Then gets completely ridiculous !!! I can't believe I paid full price for this !! Such a horrible book !!! ugh It makes me sick to think I read the entire thing !!!!!!! The ending was so bad !!! They should've just kept the first couple of chapters, and left it unfinished. Then maybe it would've had a chance."
+13960,2,great vacuum great price,"This vacuum is easy to move around and surprising light for the amount of power. It easily fits underneath furniture and has the controls on the handle making it easy to use. It takes a bit of assembly when it arrives, but it wasn't difficult. While not the cheapest, it is certainly cheaper than other high end vacuums and has enough features to keep me happy."
+13961,2,DOES THE JOB,"Was reccomended this brand at a specialist photo forum by well respected poster.Does the job well, and costs less than big name brands.So far so good, would reccomend."
+13962,1,what a waste of money!,"Terrible product...I wanted to beleive that it was a really good one like we see on Tv..but once again....TV products usually = bad quality.Of course it doesn't work at all, and it's really uncomfortable to use!You have to be really careful if you dont want to hurt your pet while using this product!"
+13963,1,For the home alone person.,"Not my thing!!! Way to much cleanse and flushing for normal people. This might work for someone that was brought up to not trust the intellegance of a good specialist. Some of these things will do more harm than good, and to start with fixing your ONLY liver, is not the place to be in."
+13964,2,Great Family Movie that everyone will love!,"If you are looking for the Great Family Movie for all ages to enjoy, this is the film for you. When I first heard of this movie several years ago, I was like this is a movie for women; however, this assumption was very wrong. I bought this DVD trilogy set for my mom because she absolutely could watch it every day. She loves great family movies with little or no bad language. She and I both would definitely give more than 2 thumbs up."
+13965,1,VERY Unsatisfied Customer,"My first review becs i'm VERY Unsatisfied.Only used this for 1 week and the bag that it came with ripped open and all the powder is out loose. Not a good product. I went back to Liquid Grip instead. Don't get this... i'd give this negative 3 stars if i could. The only reason why i put 1 star is becs i can't post w/o any ""rating""."
+13966,2,What you wish you knew when you first started,"Dutch Sheets is hilarious - as usual - with his self flexing excuses for falling short. This is also refreshing when he admits fault - well, as a child admits only when absolutely nailed to the wall - and provides the ""better"" way of handling some of these scenarios.But the theme is serious. it is time to read this if you really want to see a difference in your life and see that difference remain and make great gain for good in your life and the lives of those for whom you pray.Of course if you want to keep getting run over by life and the creatures in it, then pass this book up."
+13967,2,Loved it,I bought this for my father who is very spiritual and into meditation and yoga. He loved the book and thats good enough for me!
+13968,1,You get what you pay for...,"I thought I was getting a great deal for an MP3/CD player for my car. I didn't want anything expensive, but I wanted something that would last. This was not the deck to get.I've had it for less than three months. The player 'skips' on a brand new disc while sitting still (no bumps from driving). If the disc has the smallest scratch on it, the cd will skip (this doesn't matter if it is MP3 or CD). Also, the LCD has already gone out. There is no backlighting at all, so you can't read anything on the LCD.I'm extremely disappointed in this product and wouldn't recommend to anyone."
+13969,2,Love the U.S.A.,"My 4 year old son loves to put the U.S.A. puzzle together and so proud of himself when he does it by himself, and I also being proud of him for staying determined and completing the puzzle. The quality of this puzzle is very good as well."
+13970,1,"buy for graphics, NOT reflective qualities","I bought these for reflective feature, for riding my bike at night. The graphics are pretty wild, but they DO NOT REFLECT LIGHT as advertised. I'll keep them just because the bold graphics stand out and at least that will attract some attention and provide a small degree of safety, just not at night."
+13971,2,biggest deepest house track of the year by far,"danny t is definitely on top of the sound of today. i never get tired of listening to this track, the wicked bass line is both deep and original in structure, and builds powerfully until the vocal kicks in and then wow, goose bumps time! this tune really shows off the power of celeda's voice, much more than 'music is the answer.' serious 'heavy hitter.' easy to understand why it was the tune of miami in march (99) and has been so huge in the uk since. just get this tune and play it loud whenever you need a pick-up."
+13972,1,Not a great buy,I bought one of these and within the month it broke. I contacted the seller and they quickly sent me a replacement. That one lasted about 2 months. I wouldn't buy it again that's for sure.
+13973,2,Works Well,Have used this filter a few times now and really liked the results. Would give it a thumbs up for anyone that is looking for a soft focus effect.
+13974,2,Hurray for John Connell,"Hurray for John Connell he speaks to us beginners on our level. It was also very encouraging when he mentioned that he did not get it the first time, he had a light bulb moment. I have never heard a guru admit that before they usually give the impression that it came very easy for them.The exercises seemed to encompass a lot of VB functions, uses, and neat tricks. The explanations are complete, well thought out, and unambiguous. With little or no exposure to VB any programmer should be able to follow along.My next goal is VB.Net I hope Mr. Connell will write/has written a book that addresses it. Wrox should adopt his style for all of their text books."
+13975,1,useless,I purchased the SanDisk Ultra II Secure Digital Card to use in my Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ8 camera because it was supposed to be much better than a regular SD card. Much faster transfer speed than standard card.It is incompatible with this camera. I also couldn't get either my home pc or laptop to format the card. SanDisk techinical support basically said that they were sorry. Too bad! Nothing we can do about it.Avoid the SanDisk 2GB Ultra II Secure Digital Card if you have a Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ8 camera.
+13976,1,bad copycat,"This tape is just a cheap/cheesy knock-off of the AND1 tapes. The music isn't as good, but I can get over that by playing my own music over it if i ever watch it again. And there aren't any good moves at all. And that's what I want to see. This tape is just dunk after dunk after regular dunk. The thing that made me mostly not like the tape was the ""white-boy"" section. It's kind of racist in a way. It's basketball, if you're good, you're good, it doesn't have much to do with race, so why segregate it. The reason I gave it one star was because the section on that crazy dunker, he got higher that anyone i've ever seen. That was cool to watch. Also, the thing on Skip was cool, but I want to see him dribble and do moves, (like in AND1 Vol. 1) but he doesn't on this tape. I say save your money and get the old AND1 tapes if you can find them. I saw an ad for volume three. Hopefully it'll be better than this."
+13977,1,Don't waste your time,"I purchased this video to use for a vow renewal celebration. My mistake! Not only is it mostly not funny, the video footage is terrible and the hostess is no Bob Saget! Unfortunately, if this is what you're looking for, there isn't a lot of competition."
+13978,2,Any Time Is Time for Michael Buble,Michael you have created a movement with your take on music.I love how you interpret songs the way you do and how you make them fresh and revitalized and your own.Your duet with Nelly F. (I was not a fan of hers before this cut) is heaven sent. Never have I heard Quando Quando Quando sound this way and I love it.To hear Chris Botti providing his instrumental magic on Song for You just adds to an already magnificent compilation of music.All I could ever ask for is MORE MORE MORE!
+13979,1,McFlurry Maker-waste of [money],"I can mess up my kitchen for free, instead of wasting $25 and gaining a whole lot of aggravation! I tried to find the mfg's website to complain, but I ended up here. This ""toy"" has such a poor design, that it's impossible to get ice cream out of it. I had cream pour out of it uncontrollably, a slushy mixture of cream and salt...but never ice cream. The pieces don't stay together, they shift around, resulting in a huge mess....This toy is just junk. You can buy alot more ice cream with the money that this thing costs, plus keep your blood pressure down!"
+13980,2,Loved it as a child and I love it as a parent,"This is a very special book of lullabies and fun songs with fun drawings. I remember many of these songs from my mom singing them to me as a child and now I get to sing them to my little girl. I hunted and hunted for this book when I had a baby. My now two year old will frequently request it as our night time story book, so I she likes it too. It is worth hunting down."
+13981,2,Intense Moisturizer,"Really great product for very dry hair. Works especially well if you leave product on hair for thirty minutes, cover hair with plastic shower cap with product in hair while sitting under the dryer.Rinse product out with cool to luke warm water not hot then blow dry and style as usual.Excellent product for dry and or damaged hair puts moisture back in hair."
+13982,2,Easy and Quick,I'm a member of a card club and since I bought the card shuffler it has made the games go a little faster. I bought the 1-2 card shuffler because it is smaller to take on a vacation.Love my shuffler.
+13983,1,Brita filters are the worst,The Brita faucet filter is the worst. Besides the fact that it is made from the cheapest plastic and is almost impossible to keep attached to your faucet...it would be faster to fill a glass of water by standing outside on a sunny day and waiting for it to rain. The water trickles out of this faucet like its slowly dripping from a rock. I honestly feel that Brita is stealing from people by putting such a crappy product out. I purchased mine about 6 weeks ago and I am throwing this piece o' crap in the garbage today! I was going to buy a Brita water pitcher but I have decided to set my $30 on fire instead. I will never purchase a Brita product again.
+13984,2,Just Buy The Weekend Navigtor,"When this book was published I gave it a quick look in our library and bought it. I use it in an Electronic Navigation class I teach at a local ASA Sailing School. It is the best in its field, very understandable, gorgeous illustrations and it is one of the best manuals for Maptech Chart Navigator which they provide free on the accompanying CD.There is nothing close to this book."
+13985,1,Dont bother ordering this,"there is nothing special about this paper, not in the least bit different from the regular cheap copy paper for color or B&W. by the time you pay the ridiculous shipping price and wait to get it, you would be far better off to get regular copy paper from your local office supply store!"
+13986,2,Sound Great w My Ipod,"I am listening to these right now and they sound great. I do not find any problem with the EQ or bass response at all. Most importantly for me, they fit in my ears and stay there. I must have a different ear shape versus the general population because my Ipod ear buds fall right out. These fit in the ear, block out the rest of the world and bring out music that I have never heard before. They include a very short chord and an extension. I only wish that the chord was about 6 inches longer. It must be designed to connect to an MP3 player worn on the arm but a few more inches before needing to add the extenstion would have helped. They also include a small carrying case and an even smaller case that the ear pieces fit into to stop tangling and - best of all - it actually works!"
+13987,2,Great Album- and im a Cynic,"usually, i am very cynical of these types of albums, but this one blew me away. Honestly, ""Ask me anything"" is a Great song, loaded with lyrics only true strokes fans would understand, whewre they are making fun of other bad bands who have nothing to say and drag on. Also ""You only live once"", ""Razorblade"", ""heart in a cage"", ""red Light, ""electricity Scape"", ""killing lies,"" and ""Juicebox"" are all wonderful songs. And the rest of the album is typical Strokes, so if u are a fan of the strokes, you wont be dissapointed."
+13988,2,Invaluable for anybody working with coral snakes,"This is an excellent book that summarizes a lot of what is currently known about the coral snakes (Micrurus + Micruroides). The Amazon.com summary pretty much says it all. It is certainly not cheap in comparison to say Cambpell + Lamar's book but there you go. One MAJOR criticism regards the presentation of the photographs. In comparison with the rather professionally presented text, the photographs might as well be from a children's book a couple of decades old (needs to be seen to be believed!). However, the text more than makes up for this."
+13989,1,Turrible,"This product seemed like a good idea, was doing half swings indoors at first, then finally took it outside and did a full swing, the dang thing broke off and flew and hit my buddys headlight, like the title says...turrible"
+13990,1,"That star is for these reviews, not the movie","I can't recommend this movie. But that's not the only reason I'm writing.Why is it that when people think a movie is garbage, its defenders think those people need to ""lighten up""? When ""Bring It On"" was released, a friend of mine was literally incensed that I thought it was junk. He said not every movie had to be ""The Godfather"" (just as someone here said they can't all be ""Casablanca""). But does that mean every movie that isn't ""The Godfather"" has to be garbage? I like average, feel-good movies a lot, but it happened that I didn't think ""Bring It On"" was one of them. Maybe those of us who don't like ""B.A.P.S."" are using reasonable standards and simply want to see a good movie and didn't think this was it."
+13991,1,No Japanese track,I find the lack of the orignal language track to be quite disrespectful to the original.
+13992,2,Great socks for sports and every-day use,"I have owned several pairs of these for several years and they are comfortable as well as they outlast anything else in my drawers.Great product, great value.And great for running...no blisters no more!"
+13993,1,Eat Static Fans Beware,"If you love Eat Static... you might not want to purchase this item. For years, I've heard great things about Ozric, and been a fan of Eat Static, and many times thought that if I ever saw an Ozric album I'd pick it up. Well, I finally did, and I'm so utterly disappointed I can hardly even describe it. Boring, boring, boring. There is nothing remotely like the Eat Static I know and love on either of these discs; I wasn't expecting techno, and honestly didn't know what ""kind"" of music to expect at all. But I can enjoy any kind of music as long as it's good music, and I just don't think this is any good. It doesn't go anywhere; there's no point to it. If it was just pretty swirling psychedelia as I've heard it described, I'd probably like it, but it just sounds like... band practice."
+13994,2,Awesome,"What can I say? Who doesn't love One Piece? I was yearning for the next season & when I returned home from work, my DVD was waiting for me. Thanks guys!"
+13995,2,no more morning low back ache!,"I am sleeping so much better now and no longer wake up with a low back ache. I have tried other remedies for low back ache in the morning, including getting a new mattress, but nothing worked until I started using this pillow. Although the pillow is awkward to move if you toss and turn at night, I have adapted by leaving the pillow in position and just moving myself. It still works great. The only negative is that I won't be able to take it with me when I travel."
+13996,2,Tying Up The Loose Ends,"What a great sequel to a great original. Underworld - Evolution picks up, literally, right where Underworld left off. Wonder what happened to the rest of the Coven? How about Michael? Still a little fuzzy on how the whole thing began? Can't get enough Kate Beckinsale?Well that is all right here my friend. Every thing you want to know and see. Beckinsale is wonderful yet again and Scott Speedman continues his strong performance.You definately need both movies as they truly compliment (and feed - no pun intended) off of each other."
+13997,2,LUNA ......Took me to the moon and back......,"I love this CD, it is quite different from her many past releases. I like all most her styles but this CD is by far the most experimental. Produced with Reihold Heil(Run Lola Run, Spliff). Marianne has such a clear voice and the tracks LUNA are a good balance of energetic (Lover, Von Der Erde Zum Mond, Wen Es Wieder Winter Wird) and moody (Wie ein Lechtturm, Du Und Wer Bist Du sounds. Futuristic to me. The CD offered here seems to contain ""Wenn der Morgen kommt"" which is a German version/variation of Cher's ""Strong Enough"" This track was not on the original pressings. I am anxious to see what she does next."
+13998,1,Wrong Gasket,"Not sure it it was due to an error in listing or they sent the wrong one. The old Valve Cover Gasket had lots of holes for the bolts, this one didn't have enough. Definitely not the right gasket for an 88 Jeep Wrangler YJ 4.2 liter"
+13999,1,Good Story Poorly Executed,"The storyline was good. Others have written about that. I want to comment about how badly it was written.I find it impossible to imagine that an author does not have access to a Spell Checker. What, for heaven's sake, is the ""aristocrisy""? Perhaps some form of aristocratic hypocrisy? Just one of many, many typos. Cumbersome sentences forced me to re-read paragraphs to try to understand what Mr Phillips was trying to say. I got the distinct impression that Mr Phillips was an American with stereotyped views of what English people were like. His ""Jolly Old Brit, eh, wot!"" characterisations were not at all convincing. Please, Mr Phillips, take the time to run a Spell Checker, at the very least!"
+14000,1,ugh broke!,"the switching from the metronome to the tuner...not so great. The metronome stopped working after a few days, and would occassionally work. It wasn't worth the shipping and hassle to get another one. the tuner works though."
+14001,2,Much Better than the DVDs,"Visions of Italy [Blu-ray] If you have a blu-ray player buy this one. It costs less than the 2 DVDs available and has a lot more material. You could spend an entire weekend watching these 2 blu-rays. The videos are beautiful, the music is great and the narrations are excellent. Sicily alone is worth the price. Divetirti!"
+14002,1,Weak,"Hey, ""Losing your mind"" and ""Horse called war"" are not BLS songs! They are Pride & Glory songs, the first band Zakk put together. And the Pride & Glory album remains as his best effort so far. And ""Sold my soul"" is not a BLS song either! It's from a Zakk's solo album called Book of Shadows, which is also great. Well, now looking at the real BLS songs, every fan can notice that the best songs are not there! What compilation is this one? Where are songs like ""The beginning at last"", ""Graveyard Disciples"", ""Just killing time"", ""Destruction overdrive"", ""Suffering overdue"", ""Damage is done"" etc. etc.????If you don't know BLS and wants to get started with this compilation, don't do it! You better start with one single album, ""1919 Eternal"", which is much better than this compilation here!"
+14003,2,National Parks,"This is a well written travelogue that is easily packed for a journey to any of the parks in the country. The guide offers a brief overview of the park and then breaks down tours of the parks into length of miles and length of time. It also offers advice on visiting the various parks (complete with rattlesnake warnings and backpack camping rules, etc.). The book offers real life information and does not merely glorify the parks (though many of the photographs certainly does). For instance, in describing the South Unit of Badlands it recommends bringing a USGS topographic map but warns people will still probably get lost (not a pleasant thought, if you've ever been there before).This is a handy book that most people will be able to use. There are side trips to other sites listed after the main park is described. It is more than a coffeetable conversation piece but is still fun to peruse when cabin fever strikes."
+14004,1,please!,please! a nother bratz movie! this movie they look wireder then the rock angels. at least barbie has a nosies and real lips!
+14005,1,"Agree with"" Dissapionted""","I am very sorry I got this CD, way too Opreratic, and yes uncontrolled vebrato. I cannot recomend this CD."
+14006,1,Horrible Book,"This book reminds me of the people who throw around fancy words without any real depth to their knowledge. If you want a book packed with techno babble but no interesting plot, then this is for you. And no, this isn't packed with meaningful techno speak that is just above my head - he references complex sounding fields constantly when describing the future, but then doesn't say how they are applied or what they do - he just throws out the words.If you want techno-babble that is creative and intelligent, look into Peter F. Hamilton."
+14007,2,This was very Good,The picture quality was surprisingly very good. I glad I have this in my collection.I remember going to see this movie when it first was release. Liz Taylor was the first actress to receive a million dollars for playing this role. Again the quality of the HD was very good. They schould make this move in 3D
+14008,1,Price is listed at $1204.93. Can this be right??,"Price is listed at $1204.93. Can this be right?? I am reading the reviews, and might want to read this book, but for a 100-page rant, I can't see paying that much money! Must be a misprint of some kind, but I won't buy until it's fixed. Also, I'd like to read it on Kindle for PC. Thanks!"
+14009,2,Best router ever made,"I've had this router for maybe 5 + years now (maybe longer I can't remember) and its been great the entire time. The only time it gave me any issue (it was my fault for resetting it) was when I messed around with it and thought I had bricked it. But I Found Tomato firmware (recomended) and its been great ever since. I get great reception with it for b/g. The range is not great but its not bad either. It's an old product now and doesnt support new features but it's still doing the job, it's a high quality product."
+14010,1,the most frustrating phone I have ever owned,"I really dislike this phone. When I read other reviews saying it was hard to open (broken nails, boo hoo) I thought that was sour grapes. But it took a combination of my husband and I 25 minutes to open the phone, which we ended up doing with a key and scratching the hell out of it. So fine, I got it all set up. But it would not transer the info on my sim card, so I had to rekeyboard my address book. Then, after a few days use, the sim card got dislodged and I had to go through opening the phone yet again! The navagation is also tricky. I have very small hands and still find the buttons too close together. If you don't lock your phone or keep it in a special case the camera comes on all the time. I have spent so much time adjusting the settings so it is effecient. I have no idea what they were thinking, but next time I am going back to Nokia."
+14011,1,Everything sticks AWFUL,Everything sticks to the paper. Its horrible... I only bought it because it was precut... I will cut my own paper that won't stick.
+14012,1,what a joke,"the pedestals arrived without any attaching hardware. after many hours on the phone with samsung's hilariously titled ""customer service"" representatives, i still have no way to use this product. they keep promising to send the missing parts any day, now. it seems to be really funny to them to screw the customer, once they have their money. NEVER BUY ANYTHING FROM THIS COMPANY."
+14013,1,Bleak with too many story tails,"I kept waiting for this book to turn around. It never does. Watts introduces many interesting ideas that on their own would've been interesting (deepwater breathing, gel brains, etc) but fails to focus and develop the plot effectively. It would've been better to focus and develop one idea to it's fullest rather than bouncing around and trying to force all of these neat ideas into one book.Beyond that, it's a bleak book without hope."
+14014,2,Witty and engaging,"This book is both very funny (all the way through) and - not at all incongruously - quite moving (in just the right places). The main character's personal idiosyncrasies, workplace struggles, and awkward family situation are all depicted with a clarity and care that stick with the reader long after the reading is done. I thought it a delightful book."
+14015,2,True Military Strength Caffeine Gum,"Works much more effectively than ""civilian"" caffeine gums like Jolt.Personally, the taste is acceptable but others who have sampled some have complained of it.Honestly though, if you are buying caffeinated gum the idea is to stay more alert.Chewing regular gum afterwards helps if the taste is extremely bothersome."
+14016,2,Adorable!!!,"I love my little pony, even as a fifteen year old!!! I was a collector of the generation two (and still am) and it's nice to see my childhood friends making a comback.THough I am disappointed that these newer ponies are a lot like the older ones (they're not quite as slim and much bigger), they're still wonderful and the little ones such as this are perfect for playsets bought and created.Very excellent... I only wish I had enough money to buy them all!!!!"
+14017,2,Best yet in the series!,"I bought the first 2 volumes of this set online and just got volume 3 and it is the best yet for this style of Chill Out.I am an analyst listening to people's problems all day whichis very rewarding, but I need to CHILL OUT when I get intomy car and also at home, so this CD is perfect for that.This Cafe Del Sol series (does this mean sunny cafe?) is justwhat one needs to chill out to in my opinion. It provides aperfect blend of down tempo music with an up feeling about it.I would highly recommend these CDs and especially volume 3 foranyone who needs some new tunes and a way to just Chill Out."
+14018,1,Read at your own risk,"Let's just say I bought this book a week ago... I was siked on a page turner as I thought it would be considering the 5stars that the book received. I could definitely feel the story line that ms cheeks was working with but it seemed as though she gave more information where it wasn't necessary and lil' information where it was. For instance, Jarrin... Come on 15 years is a long time to be married, what happened? That's how I finshed the book with questions."
+14019,2,Peace of mind in a box,"Recently there have been several reports of people dying of carbon monoxide poisoning, so I was becoming more uncomfortable with just a couple cheap detector. I heard this was highly rated. I came to amazon and found it very reasonably priced. Received the package very quickly, within a week from time ordered. It was packaged very well.I feel much more comfortable with these detectors in our home. I can push the peak level button to see if any amount of CO has been detected in the last 24 hours. So far mine has always shown 0 ppm. However, I have a family member that also bought a few of these, upon my recommendation. Their detector showed 52 ppm the other day. So they vented the house and are looking for the source.I have more much peace of mind knowing that it will show me what level is detected. The battery backup also gives more peace of mind."
+14020,1,Could Have Been Better,"The book (entitled Binary) was great, suspenseful and kept me reading. In fact, while I was reading it I kept thinking it would make a great film. Then, while surfing through Amazon's recommendations based on my previous purchases (I had purchased Coma and The Great Train Robbery - both are good solid films directed by Crichton) I saw this. Due to the DVD case art I was expecting a great movie. I was unfortunately disappointed with both the acting and script. It almost makes me sad that Crichton, himself, directed this. The story is good and could make a great movie. This is one of those that I wished Hollywood would adapt and set in the present day. It would make a good thriller.My advice, skip the film, but read the book."
+14021,1,OMG WORST BOOK EVERRRR,"this is truly the worst book ive ever read. im soon 2 burn it. we had 2 read it for school, thats the only reason i finished it. it was horribly written, no plot and just outright boring. if your looking for a good read, FIND ANOTHER BOOK!!!!"
+14022,1,boring,I am a fan of Keyes and loved all her other books except this one. Her playing with words to give us an enjoyable book and her clever jokes do not exist in this one. big disappointment.
+14023,2,WELL DONE RAY J.,"This is a good come-back from the 'This Aint A Game' album, that album was good wit songs like 'wait a minute', 'where do we go from here', 'wet me' and 'formal invite',etc. However, this album is even better. You can tell that he has grown up on this album. I think he is making a name for himself in the music business, and wont just be known as Brandy's kid brother. My fav tracks on this album are: 'Exotic' - love this song 2 bits cant get enough of it. 'In tha Mood', 'Anytime', 'One Wish', 'What I Need' and the crunk track 'Keep Sweatin'. However, there are a few dodgy tracks on there like 'Quit Actin' - i was excited when i saw R. Kelly was on there bt was sadly disappointed when i heard it. 'The War Is Over' - i liked the last duet they did 'another day in paradise' bt after hearing this song they should have stopped then. However, overall its a good album ... WELL DONE RAY J."
+14024,1,Not for me,I tried this in my Kodak CD33 and first it was kind of hardish to get in but did fit snug and it didn't seem to hold a charge that long at all. And the last thing is now the bottom of my camera is cracked due to trying to get the battery in and closed. That's just my experience though. It may be different for you and you might like it but it's not for me.
+14025,2,a great strategy game,"This game is an addition to the game Settlers of Catan. Our family really enjoyed the game Settlers. We didn't think that this game could be improved upon. However, since we have added the addition, Cities and Knights, we cannot go back to just plain Settlers of Catan. This game has intrigue, planning, chance and strategy all rolled into one game. Even the members of our family that don't often play games, love this game. We heartily recommend it to teenagers and adults. It is a really great game!"
+14026,2,Knowing seb's music,"The first time i listen to Seb Fontaine was when i bought the prototype 2, by that time i was amazed by the global underground series but until that moment i didn't knew the real power and emotion that makes me feel prototype 2.A mix of a kind of tech-house, deep house and pure house in CD1 followed by energetic progressive house marks a way thay any dj had done before.Tracks like the one of Warriors of love, Chris Cargo, johan and the classic one of Cevin Fisher's ""Music save my life"" certify that he's leading the way."
+14027,1,Awful,"I've seen different versions of ""The dangerous liaisons"", and with difference this the worst one I've ever seen. The version with Keanu Reeves, Michelle Pfeiffer and John Malkovic it's the best one. Ryan Phillippe is as bad actor as gross, not to mention Reese Whitherspoon. All they do it's a free version of the book, it's another movie starred by the ""Bloof generation"" of actors we have right now, if you have dignity yet, don't see it."
+14028,2,A testament to a jaded generation,"Steffi's Club finds writer D.A. Blyler, author of the infamous Salon.com satire The 7 Vices of Highly Creative People, at the top of his game. Blyler is a keen and humorous observer of kitsch-laden sensibilities and he exploits them to their full extent in his protagonist Daniel Fischer. An American without a mission on the cobblestone streets of the Czech Republic, Daniel receives more than he bargains for when he accepts a job teaching flirtatious English to the girls at Steffi's Club, one of the town's most exclusive brothels. In less sure hands, the novel might simply be passed off as a pulpish expatriate novel of love, murder, and redemption, but Blyler kicks up dust outside such terrain to offer us a generational statement of those thirty-somethings who have fallen through the cracks of parental, academic, and worldly expectations--a generation that has long been waiting for a voice."
+14029,1,don't bother,"looks great on commercial (don't they always), but this is a joke. besides being an absolute mess maker, you can only make one pancake at a time. with a family, it is very impracticle."
+14030,2,works great,I bought it cuz it was cheap -- and it has worked great. I had no problem programming our tv and it has worked fine since.
+14031,1,Hate Monger's Story Book,"Mr Jan, has once again proved that his hate for Pakistan and its place in world pushes him to the last extent to write these kinds of books. I must say he writes very well from the point of view of a hate monger and a total pessimist. It feels as if he is trying to please some people in and around the south east Asia. If you want to read this than must say get some pain killers because your head will hurt a lot!!!!!"
+14032,1,MISSING!,"One star? Not even that! I would love to review the product, however, I have yet to receive my order that was scheduled to arrive in November. When I inquired about delivery, I was dismayed to learn that Amazon refuses any responsibility for orders, however, they would send my complaint forward to the vendor. I received notice and an apology from the vendor, Andrew Shadgett, that my order was shipped and that I would have it ""very soon."" That was December 13, 2008. In my estimation, ""very soon"" happened some time ago. Have I been ripped off? I feel like it. Will I use Amazon again? I don't know. (I am so disappointed in their service right now. To make matters even more frustrating, I wanted to market my books through Amazon. Now I'm not so sure.) I already searched other marketers, and the product I still wait for was available through them. To make the burn worse, I could have saved a couple of dollars to boot!"
+14033,1,"Good God, It's Dull!","Ugh, good God, this book is dull. My only thought while reading this book was, ""Get to your point already!"" The characters are cliches, shells of college stereotypes, and it takes much too long to get to the advertised storyline. I really do feel that this is a rip-off of Dan Brown's work, that the publisher is hoping readers will buy anything Renaissance, anything thriller, and anything with encrypted clues. This book, however, is just everything dull."
+14034,2,Friday the 13th,"This is the tenth movie in the set. Complete set includes Friday the 13th one thru eight, Jason goes to hell, and Jason X. Also Jason vs.Freddy."
+14035,2,Ideal for being couped up in snowy weather....,"My part of the country has received lots of snow lately, so I cozied down for a long winter's read with Fleur de Leigh's Life of Crime- and let me tell you, it was a superb way to spend an afternoon!This focuses around- who else?- Fleur de Leigh, daughter of a radio personality with a big ego (Charmian, her mother) and a TV-game producer, her father. With reserved, distant- yet at times fun- parents, a perverted yet kind gardener, an odd cook, and a string of boisterous, comical, even sensual nannies (favorites being Bettina, Clover, and Glendora), this is a fun, laughter, tension, and party-filled read. Watch as Fleur gets admitted to Psychodrama, Charmian seduces a nanny's boyfriend, Fleur gets stuck in a police station, and many more comical times!Buy this book- trust me, you will NOT be disappointed!"
+14036,2,very soothing,"My clients love this CD. I had no idea how many people are annoyed by new age-y music while being massaged. Perhaps annoyed is a little strong. However, I've never had so many compliments on what music was being played during a massage until I started playing classical. It has all been positive."
+14037,2,Mission Accomplished,"I was eager to watch this when I heard of Dead Space. I'm very impressed when cross media franchises are done well, and the thought that this was the prequel to the game made me very curious as to how it would perform. It did a perfect job of making my mouth water with anticipation. The story was well done, the soundtrack is effective, and the atmosphere provides just the right amount of creep factor to let you know to never let down your guard... Watching this has gotten me more than ready to plug in the game!"
+14038,1,Waste of Money,"This product is a waste of money. After reading some of the positive reviews, I decided to waste $20+ on it to see if it will help. I used it on my mild acne for over a month and I didn't notice the smallest change or effectiveness. Don't buy this product. Waste of money and time."
+14039,1,Doesnt Work On Windows 7.....otherwise 5 stars...,"Doesn't run on windows 7,too bad, cause Doom I is one of the great shooters of all time. If anyone knows how to make it run, email me or post...thanks everyone!!!1"
+14040,2,Clearing up 50 years of misconceptions,"I really enjoyed this book, written from someone who knew Gardner personally. This book will tell you what really happened, when it happened, how it happened and why it happened, becoming what we call Wicca today. After practicing nearly 22 years (as of this review writing), I was pleased to find out the actual origins of the Wiccan religion we practice today. Be prepared to find out that not everything that you have been told about Gardner is true!"
+14041,1,too early to say?,"Not sure. Two stars=benefit of the doubt. Snake oil? Maybe. Ever notice how you never see competition/match grade rifles with this kind of crap on them?'Nuff said.I'll keep trying it on different rifles. When I see the manufacturers claims come through the clouds clear as day, I'll come back and praise Amazon for the Limbsaver brand. Until then, I think I'm done buying useless hunks of rubber to make myself think my gun is more accurate."
+14042,2,Great Classic TV!!!!,"One Of The Great Tv Shows!!! It Was So Much Fun To Watch These Shows Again!!! Picture & Sound Quality Were Very Good!!! The Guest Stars Were Wonderful...Especially Kent McCord,Pre ADAM-12. I Had No Problems With The Dvds Playing!!! I Look Forward To More Seasons Of This And ""ADAM-12"" & ""Emergency""!!!! Great Stuff!!!"
+14043,2,Very Good Sound; Easy to Install & Setup,"Have had this system for a month, and am very pleased with it. The sound when watching DVD movies is greatly improved from my former sound source, a JVC stereo system. CD music also sounds very good.This is the first home theater system I set up, but that went smoothly following the Instruction Manual. What sold me on this system is not having to run wires to the rear speakers. That was a real plus for me, and it works well."
+14044,2,Entire book lettered in Calligraphy! Very impressive!,"I have been teaching Calligraphy for over 20 years. I've reviewed many books, and I like this one the best. I recommend this book for my students. I suggest they buy this book first, then check out the others by this author, they're all outstanding!"
+14045,1,why do people like this so much?,It is really low quality and the straps are uncomfortable.I bought it for my daughter If I had seen it before I would not buy it. I think it is not good for a child. Because comfort is more important for them than adults.I will not return it but will not use for school.I am very disappointed.It is like a joke!!!
+14046,2,Amazing soundtrack,"This soundtrack is truly a piece of art. Randy Newman has done some great things with this album. ""When She Loved Me"" is a beautiful song that I can't help but listen to over and over again. The instrumental part (which makes up the majority of the album) is exciting yet very soothing and enjoyable. If you've seen the movie, and paid any attention to the music at all, the soundtrack is a must. I put it in my CD player, sit back, and relax. I'll listen to this one for years to come."
+14047,1,Caution: This book is bias and one author is a fired professor.,"If you believe everything you read, you should not read this book. Look into the background of Ward Churchill and decide if he is a person who is fair and balanced when it comes to his version of events."
+14048,1,What Happened?,"I bought 2 of these mugs. Can't tell you when this happened, but one day I heated up my coffee, reached into the microwave and OUCH!!! The handle was so hot, I couldn't pull the mug out. I've used a low-wattage, as well as a high-wattage oven, and the same thing took place. Now, my son uses them for cold drinks. They are useless to me."
+14049,2,Nikon Lens Hood,Amazon was able to meet my need for a replacement of a Nikon Lens Hood which I was not able to secure from local camera stores for under $10.00 within 3 days of submitting my order.
+14050,1,Not what is advertised,"In the descriptions of this product it said it was water proof. I assumed the opening to put your ipod in would be against your arm, sealing it from rain. There is just a big opening on top to slide your iPod into it. Also, it says it works for a Classic which is what I ordered it for. The hole for the earphones is on the bottom, but the jack is on the top of the iPod. It is not meant for a Classic, and you could find an armband better suited for the Classic.It is a nice product, it seems to be built well and it might work great for a different style iPod and if you don't plan to use it in any kind of wet weather. But it is not waterproof and definitely not for the iPod Classic."
+14051,2,Something new to sink your teeth into!!!,"If you are looking for a ""sound"" that is unique and not another ""cookie-cutter"" hybrid band, check out this release by Atomship. As other reviewers have hinted, it's real hard to pin this band down....they have crafted an incredible first release that will appeal to fan's of A Perfect Circle, Acroma (another band with an excellent first release), Lo-Pro, and Mad At Gravity. There are even hints of prog-metal that would find a home with any metal fan. Some lyrics are dark and make you sit back and think, the music explodes and makes you take notice. The musicianship is incredible, the drummer plays like there is no tomorrow. Pay attention to this band, I think they will be around for a long time and I'm sure they will create a name for themselves. Thanks Atomship, this release is a real mind f**k!!!!!!"
+14052,2,First Time User,"I just received my new Baby Bjorn Air for my newborn. The product is easy to assemble and will fit a newborn slightly under 8lbs easy. So far so good, I can't wait to have both hands free so I can get more accomplished during the day."
+14053,1,Very bad experience with this produce,"This steamer was rickety when assembled. It got too hot to touch -- even on the handle. Finally, after only about five or six uses, it refused to turn on. Trying to contact the company is a nightmare: their 800 number is always busy, and they have no e-mail capability. I'd advise going with another brand."
+14054,1,Ugh,"This book left a seriously bad taste behind, so much so that I actually feel a little annoyance towards the person who recommended it to me. What a waste of time.I'm not going into why I didn't like the book. There are a couple of reviews here that sum it up quite well. Basically, I think the literature that came with the game is a far more engaging read."
+14055,2,One of my Favorites!,I am a huge fan of F. Scott Fitzgerald. I chose him for my author in high school for a project and absolutely loved reading all of his stories. This book is a slow read and you have to become invested in the story to actually care about all the details he adds. I just love his writing and this book it one of my favorites.
+14056,2,A comprehensive spiritual approach to astrology,"This is one of the best books on practical astrology.Hickey shows how astrology can be used to aid a person's spiritual development.""Astrology is not fatalism.The birth-chart indicates certain physical, mental, emotional and spiritual tendencies with which the person is endowed at birth.The blueprint shows what the soul has on its spiritual ledger - the debits and credits.""This book shows how the higher side of planetary forces can be used for spiritual growth.All the important features of chart interpretation are given, including the meaning signs on house cusps.Along with the works of Dane Rudhyar, this is an astrology book I often refer to."
+14057,2,Pulchrum est paucorum hominum.,"""Child of God"" defies, perhaps more forbiddingly than any other work in McCarthy's magisterial corpus, the fashionable impertinence which not infrequently inspires the facile elicitation of ideological structure from his text. Besides having, among living writers of the English language, the strongest claim to deferred mortality, McCarthy's most unassailable works -- ""Blood Meridian,"" ""Outer Dark,"" and ""Child of God"" -- are, for their predestined readers, a stringent and edifying disinfectant against the sterile prevailing trends of literary criticism."
+14058,1,not original,this bra insert is not an original invisi. the original invisi that i'd seen is a bra like or breastlike held together as one. the piece that held it as one was cut -off.
+14059,1,Not My Idea of Sherlock Holmes,"I was surprised when I saw how high the avarage customer rating was for this DVD. Then I thought, maybe it is a cult favorite among people who like campy, bad acting. But, after reading the reviews, I see that a lot of people really like it.So, why didn't I like it? I thought the way Jeremy Brett plays Sherlock Homes was too strange. I know Holmes is meant to be eccentric, but the way Brett speaks is too choppy, kind of angry, and annoying to me. It seemed very affected and unnatural. Dr. Watwon comes off as really dopey.The scenery and sets were good, most of the other actors were good, but this was not my idea of how Sherlock Holmes should be done."
+14060,1,It doesn't look like the picture,"I ordered 2, took longer than expected. It doesn't look like the picture. The inside of mine look like a cheap plastic. The outside is not silver its gold."
+14061,1,RIP OFF!...,"I used to have a I.R.(infa red) control pad for ps1. When I saw this I thought it would be just as responsive as the one I had. I was wrong, this thing doesn't work. The anolog sticks are not sensitive enough and if you play sports games like madden you have no accuracy at all on field goals. Don't throw your money away on this. I hope someone comes out with a good I.R. one like I used to have."

+14063,1,Typical example of science mixed with nonscience to confuse the reader.,"Do you believe in the scientific ""theory"" that makes your microwave oven work? How about the scientific ""theory"" that makes electricity available when you plug in your toaster? How about the scientific ""theory"" that water is comprised of two atoms of hydrogen and one atom of oxygen. These and ALL theories are ideas that have been tested and tested and NEVER found to be wrong. If you believe that all of these theories are true, why question the theory of carbon dating accepted by ALL PEER REVIEWED SCIENTIFIC DOCUMENTATION?This book is another example of TRUE scientific theory mixed with UNTESTED hypothetical ideas (somewhat like ""bait and switch""). The end result is that the author claims to prove his ideas when in fact the untested hypotheses are still untested.I love God, people and our planet but feel that books like this one prevent us from seeing the entire truth, unfortunately."
+14064,2,AWSOME GAME,"This was my first game for the PSP. I was amazed by the graphics on this game there great! The tracks are great and very fun. Though there aren't many tracks they still remain very fun anytime you play them. The speed classes you can play are insane. You start off pretty slow but every speed class is much faster than the last witch provides a good challege anytime. The cars or pods or ships or whatever you wanna call the things you race are amazing. It takes different skills to race each 1 so being good with 1 doesn't mean your a master of the game. One of my favorite parts of this game is the downloads. You can go online with this game and download new stuff like new tracks, racers, and wallpapers. Overall this game is 1 of the best games for the PSP. This is a must buy"
+14065,2,Really great.,"I'm 13 and what to be an animator more than anything. You have NO idea how much this has helped me! From model sheets to storyboards this is great. It has so much, you'll be overwhelmed! I suggest you buy it, for you dont have to want to be an animator. It's so interesting for everyone! It has a great stroy. And if you loved this one, I also REALLY suggest Miyazaki's ""Castle in the Sky"". It's great!"
+14066,1,Cliche and then some,"If she is teaching people to write its a sad day for anyone who takes writing seriously.The book reads like a bad cliche. Well..I didn't exactly finish it, but as far as I got. I can see why there are so few reviews here, don't bother with this one."
+14067,1,"Preachy, tedious, and difficult to finish","I felt like I was in a freshman seminar at UC Berkely and couldn't wait for class to end. There was not a single liberal soapbox missed: from the dangers of the Patriot Act to the inhumanity of the meat packing industry to racism in the US to the 'rogue elephant' of the intelligence community (hey, even Frank Church admitted he was wrong on that one David) to the evils of Christianity...I could go on, but why bother. Read the NYT or watch CNN and you pretty much have Baldacci's research. His hero has even oh so wittily dubbed himself ""Oliver Stone,"" a truth seeker. This is just pitiful. I only gave the book one star because the story wasn't bad; however, it could have been written in 200 rather than 400 pages without the ridiculous and pedantic ravings of a rather inept author. This was my first and last Baldacci."
+14068,1,66 piece drilling/screw driver set,"This item is being displayed along with some of Black & Decker chordless screwdrivers. The screw driver bits work fine, but the drill bits do not fit the PD600 chordless screwdriver at all. Purchased another brand of drill bit & screwdriver bits that have the proper fitting ends for the electric screwdriver chuck."
+14069,1,Rosalyn and Terry McMillan Are Two Different Writers!!!,I did not like this book. The plot was too unbelievable and I really did not like any of the characters. I did manage to read the entire book but found it to be quite disappointing. Two thumbs down.
+14070,1,"Great song, lousy remixes - Very disappointing","""Dream On"" has so much potential for a decent remix. The vocals, the guitar, the bass. Instead what we get are some really boring drum beats with cliche processed loops of the song. Sounds like something I would hear in a club with mediocre DJ. Too bad, since so much could be done with this song."
+14071,1,Save your money: Stanley USED to make a good Thermos,"Fact: Stanley Thermos USED to make a good product.Fact: Stanley Thermos does NOT make a quality product anymore.Here is a review for you. Yesterday I did a side by side comparison of two Stanley Thermoses. One was purchased 20 years ago, and one purchased last year.The Thermoses were filled with the same coffee batch at the same time (5:00 am). At exactly 12:00 pm we opened the thermoses. The one purchased 20 years ago contained piping hot, steaming coffee. The one purchased last year contained cold, not luke warm but cold, coffee.If you would like a durable product that will last forever that is one thing. If it needs to keep a beverage hot then spend your money elsewhere. A styrofoam cup can keep a beverage hotter than a Stanley Thermos and it doesn't cost 20 bucks.There is a REAL review."
+14072,1,Fun...for a while....,"The product produces an ""ah""...for a few seconds, but it has no sustaining excitement for a toddler. I wouldn't rate it as educational... however, it is a cheap thrill."
+14073,1,A Classic?,I honestly don't know how this novel has become a classic. As an avid reader I had to practically force myself to get through this book and only did so because my book club was reading it. I wasn't the only person in our club who was disappointed. It was a miserable story and pointless. It was a great discription of life in Brooklyn during that time period but Betty Smith never made me care about the characters enough to care about what happened to them. This novel needs more character development to be a classic. I only give it 2 stars instead of 1 because it really is a great description of life in Brooklyn.
+14074,1,Mr. Dibbell could use a life....,"""My Tiny Life"" about sums it up. Julian Dibble is, literally, what the British term ""a wanker."" He brings navel gazing to an exhaulted pinnacle. He starts his book well, discussing the strange interactions between real life (RL) and virtual life as experienced on MUDs and MOOs (VL). He almost captures your imagination, then loses it all in a prolix tale of his adventures in masturbation, both real and virtual. In part, the book reads like his paeon of love to the (current) woman he has trouble making a committment to. In part, it's a waltz through the lives of people who are not yet ready to engage in real life and instead are tooling around virtual reality trying to get a grip on, primarily, their sexuality. While this book will surely appeal to those who recognize themselves in it, it's actually rather repellant to those who have been there, done that, then grew up."
+14075,1,not reliable,"we used it for little over 2 yars - it was OK, nothing oustanding as far as performance. it's pretty ""plastic"" feel, with parts attached not too well one to eachother - the latches, dust bag door, etc.- power brush broke in a few month- the hose got torn in 2 years- motor burned out 2.5 years (I think it's because bag position aren't secured enough - a couple of times it fell off the hose inside the canister and dust+air blew bypassing the bag wich decreased motor life)"
+14076,2,""" All Star "" THIS song is the freakin coolest","This CD is so cool, I luv it like crazy and it sure does Kick @$$. So i reccomend you that you go out and get this cd, luv the group lots !!!"
+14077,2,good non serious read,"This book was a fun quick read. Some people in their reviews seemed to take it too serious looking into the specifics of MIT etc. Its an exciting story that is probably going to be a movie, but if you are going to spend more time worrying about the tax issues involved with moving this money around, then its not worth the time."
+14078,1,Ezzo impersonating God,"Ezzo appears to have climbed into the mind of God, and now pretends to speak for him. ""...God's divine intention for parents to use physical pain to correct a child's rebellious activities."" God's son would be the first to object, as even a cursory reading of the New Testament would tell us. Ezzo tells us to hit the child ""to free him of his guilt of sin"". Those who completed Psych 101 recognize this as projection. Ezzo is a man in deep psychiatric trouble, and before he does more harm to children ought to be taken into custody for psychiatric counseling.- Norm Lee, author of Parenting Without Punishing"
+14079,2,"Spooky is fun for those with a twisted sense of humour, definitely.","i bought this because i love all things from Jhonen, especially after watching Invader ZIM, and have found that squeezing this toy makes me smile, no matter when i do.mind, there's nothing educational about him, but Spooky is my little skeleton squeeky toy that i keep around just to smile at, not just to hear the sounds he makes.and he's got this adorable look on his face too."
+14080,1,This was the worst movie I have EVER seen!!!,Or at east pretty close.....I f there was a 0 star rating that's what I would rate this piece of garbage that gives SF a bad name. For the first hour or so it had my attention: then it turned into a gore fest. This movie had potential. They must have let the rookie writers take over after that. Same your time and $.
+14081,1,"Bad, bad, bad","Can anyone please expain why Raleigh fell in love with the thoroughly unlikeable Jane? There is not a single paragraph in this story in which Jane speaks with even a smidgen of, well, fondness for Raleigh. It is thoroughly unreasonable to expect that the fun, handsome Raleigh would even look twice at someone a) so unattractive and b) more importantly, so nasty. I like Deb Simmons books but this one failed to live up to her previous romances and left the reader feeling very sorry for poor Raleigh."
+14082,1,It [was poor]!,I am a big fan of Macaulay Culkin but this was one of his worst films. I remember seeing this movie during Thanksgiving break in 1994 and I hated it. The acting was great but I thought the movie was boring. If you want to rent a good Culkin film go rent Home Alone. This movie was pointless. Don't even think about renting this movie unless if you have a boring weekend.
+14083,2,Couldn't Be Served Better,"British Comedy is like fine Scotch, it's an aquired taste; and some people never do aquire the taste. I love british comedy and ""Are You Being Served?"" is an excelent example. This collection is well done, quality recordings, neatly packaged and reasonably priced."
+14084,1,Susan's Opinion of the Kodak 530,"The Kodak 530 is not as clear as I expected. The picture does not have the clarity that my Kodak CX4200 have which is only 3 megapixels. The CD that places the Easy Share program on my computer picks the 530 up as a 315. Nothing in the camera references the camera as being a 530. 530 is printed on the outside of the camera only.I loved the Kodak CX4200 which was lost at a reunion (3 megapixels), so I thought the 530 would be a better camera with 5 megapixels but not so.)I really can't be sure the camera is 530 since the computer reads it as a 315."
+14085,1,"Maybe just my bad luck, but ...","I bought one of these, thinking that it should be good enough that I could pass it on to my kids. Paid extra for it because it was supposed to be a deluxe model. I didn't use it much at all, but had it for over three years. During that time I probably made less than 25 cuts with it--not even enough to scratch the paint on the bottom of the guide deck. I took the thing out to use it the other day and it shot sparks out of the housing and died. Now I have a brand new looking saw that's worthless. I'm not at all impressed with Skil / Bosch at the moment. It's sounding like it's going to cost more to get it repaired than to go out and get a GOOD saw."
+14086,1,Nobody want's to be this Mama's boys Valentine.,"Your typical, average, unoriginal masked man killing off people that he doesn't like. Not only that, People that don't like him. That don't love him. This whole things has been done to death and I'm sick of it. Enough with the killer's in masks. Many others have come before this one. Some where more entertaining than others but still, give it a rest already. Nothing is done different and everything is flawed in this movie. It's a complete waste of time.Here's a list of all the others that seem EXACTLY similiar to this undying tune:1. I KNOW WHAT YOU DID LAST SUMMER2. I STILL KNOW WHAT YOU DID LAST SUMMER3. SCREAM4. SCREAM 25. SCREAM 36. HIGHSCHOOL DEATH7. THE ENTIRE JASON VORHEES SERIES8. THE ENTIRE MICHAEL MEYERS SERIES9. URBAN LEGEND10. URBAN LEGENDS: FINAL CUTfINAL vERDICT: This deserves to be forgotten."
+14087,1,It's cheap for a reason,"If you are using Quickbooks, or Autocad or most likely any other application that relies heavily on registry information, be prepared to reinstall them from scratch if you allow Registry Repair to ""fix the errors"" it found. The backup & restore facility WILL NOT undo the changes made to the registry and restore it to the pre-repair condition.I have seen viruses do less damage to Windows.Do not use."
+14088,1,BBQ Gloves,"After reading the review, I bought these for my BBQ guy. Unfortunately, they were WAY too small for guy-hands and too big for mine."
+14089,1,Lacking,"This movie is so goofy, that the talents of the cast are wasted. Billed as a comedy, but the movie came across as a ""Stoner Feature"", in my opinion. To me, the moment of greatest comedy was when Danny Glover fell into a hole. Gwynth Paltrow's character drained me, with her pouting, depressed manner. Also billed as a family of geniuses, I found nothing mentally stimulating about this movie. This is a silly, but colorful children's story. A spoof of life. Great, if you enjoy that sort of thing. I was expecting more."
+14090,2,Interesting techniques,I love this album Lyle can really put you into another world I can't categorize this music sometimes it sounds jazzy other times I cant put it into words its just amazing. This guy is a genius his music sounds ahead of are time.
+14091,1,What happened here?!?!?!,"I too bought this CD with the hope of listening to that beautiful singer/songerwriter music that Rob is so great at. Only one song, ""Here Comest The Night"" was good enough to meet that quality. This is NOT the Rob Thomas that I've come to love. Sure I expected a change from the MB20 scene, but bubblegum pop CD, I did not expect. I long for the songs like the last title. All of these songs had promise. They all have wonderful lyrics, but have been processed so much that they are no longer pleasant to listen to. I look forward to the day when Rob rejoins the rest of the MB20 crew!"
+14092,1,fiction/exploitation at it's best!,"What if...what if Charles has been a ""drugged out hippie guru"", what if Charles had been involved, even in the slightest in the murders, what if Charles had even been in the area for the so-called ""Tate"" murders...what if Charles so called friends hadn't taken and turned on him, becoming deceitful little liar, some even hiding behind their religion that too is a lie, in my opinion)...Anyway, if these ""what if's"" even had a tiny little bit of truth to them, this book may be considered non fiction..People need to stop buying into these exploitative lies and those lies put forth by the king of lies, V. Bugliosi...Open your minds and stop being robots.Charles did not ""lead"" anyone.If anything, his only crime was trusting people and surrounding himself w/ liars who woul dsell their mother's soul for their own selfish purposes."

+14094,1,PLEASE DON'T SUPPORT THIS KIND OF TRASH,"It is insulting to our real artists, embarrasing to our nation, and it only helps to magnify the egos of these pathetic celebrities. I really don't understand why people would actually give their money to Paris Hilton."
+14095,1,Disappointed,"I've purchased edamame from stores before, but decided to buy in bulk for price reasons. I was hoping Amazon would be the perfect place to do just that, but when I received my edamame, nearly every bag was torn and/or had holes in it! Loose edamame were rolling around in the box everywhere.Love the product, don't love the way I got it."
+14096,1,Disappointed,I was somewhat disappointed at the level of understanding the author assumed my knowledge base was on the subject. I also was expecting definite trading strategies to employ. This is not a beginners book and i dont think it helps experienced traders either as the main antidote for succes is keeping a journal practice for one year and dont succumb to greed and fear. There I gave you all the book has to offer and didnt charge you for it
+14097,2,The BEST wedding advice ever!!,"This book is the best ever for getting hip and practical advice for planning a wedding. Carley does a fabulous job of clarifying the sometimes mysterious rules of etiquette, as well as coming up with some fun new ways of planning a wedding in today's world. This book is a must-have for to-be-brides and grooms, as well as for Mothers and other wedding participants."
+14098,2,Very good for the teen going into the military.,"This is a very good book, filled with all sorts of knowledge someone should get before going into basic training. It is very army based (mostly because that's what the author went into) but it does touch on the other branches too."
+14099,2,Why buy anything else?,"I am running those in my V8 5.0L (302) Ford and my V6 3.0L DOHC Ford. There is no question that iridum tip and platinum ground disc will last longer and maintain the same gap.Why would anybody buy anything else, especially when is so labor intesive to replace those in the first place?"
+14100,2,my sisters keeper,i loved this book it was one of the best books i have read in a really long time. I could not put it down. i plan on reading more books by Jodi Picoult.the book had a very incredable ending and was very compelling i recomend anyone this book who is not a big reader because its a book you cant put down.
+14101,1,seriously what book were the 5star reviewers reading?,"Alright, first of the book was slow, I kept getting a feeling of deja vu, but it's because the book was repeating itself. Kisa started out so ""hard"" and such an independent hustler. But she turned into a whiny ok. The grammar and lingo was ridiculous I understand ""hood"" but it was serious overload. Typos galore. And nothing but a bunch of shopping and designer name dropping. I know everything the characters wore, but nothing much about them at all. And if they were so successful and worth over 20 mil, running 5 legal businesses between the two of them (kisa and Sincere) why in the he** were they still hustling dope? And after getting busted why would opt to go back to doing it for two more years? And mind you I only read the first 4 chapters. I can't read this. I don't recommend it at all. Save your money please."
+14102,1,Don't support this art thief,Steals artwork from other artists and passes it off as his own. Check out the wikipdedia article for many examples.
+14103,2,"Pretty good, serves the purpose I bought it for","I ordered 6 of these in the natural color to cover up my dining chairs that once had ivory cushions, but are now just a mosaic of stains. I had no problem with the fit or the color. Another reviewer commented about needing an iron and I couldn't agree more. I washed them before using them, dried them in the dryer (they still fit my large chairs) and took them out immediately. If you are going for shabby-chic, then they're perfect! Otherwise, get the iron out. Even if you do like the shabby-chic look, you will still want to iron the ties to make pretty bows. That's the only thing negative I have to say about these covers... I wish the fabric was more wrinkle resistant, but then I suppose they would be a lot more expensive. I guess the kids that created the stains on the chair cushions are going to have to learn how to iron."
+14104,1,not for the Southwest,"I've bought 4 of these houses - in less than two years all of them have deteriorated -- the zippers have pulled away from the plastic, the screen has ripped away from the zippers and is disintegrating and now the plastic is ripping away from the frame - I live in New Mexico so the sun shines on the greenhouse most of the time but what is the big deal about that? these greenhouses are a total waste of money --I would have been better off buying a tarp and creating an igloo. DO NOT BUY if you live in the southwest -- and their customer service? forget it -- non-existent"
+14105,2,On the edge of my seat for nine years!,"I have loved this series completely. Auel's gifted writing style takes us places the ordinary imagination can't go unprompted. Reading about Ayla's adventures and discoveries has sparked my interest in so many things, including medicinal prairie herbs and wondering how to reveal my own totem. I wish Creb had an email address so I could ask for help!I thoroughly enjoy the way Auel develops her characters. After reading all four of the books in this series, I am convinced that no better love story exists than that of Ayla and Jondalar!Please, Ms. Auel. We've been waiting nine long years to hear about Ayla's acceptance by the Zelandonii. And does Durc ever find his mother? Please! Finish the series!"
+14106,1,Some things should just not be done,"Nookie with dead people and covering bands that are classic (Echo and the Bunnymen, Led Zepplin, and of course Van Halen).Hearing a song off this CD just made me want to be sick. But then later when I went to work and talked to someone else about it and they told me there was a WHOLE CD of this stuff, ahhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!Don't get me wrong, I am not a big fan of bluegrass to begin with, but I can tolerate it. What I can't tolerate is this CD and even more so David Lee Roth being part of this abomination!"
+14107,2,Eve is back!,"This CD is even better than Eve's first! The songs have better beats, and Eve is showing more of her voice than before. The coolest clips are ""Let Me Blow Ya Mind"" with Gwen Stefani, ""Who's That Girl"", and ""Scream Double R"". If you liked the first CD ""Ruff Ryders First Lady... Let There Be Eve"" you'll for sure like this one. Also Reccomended : Eve ""Let There Be Eve"" - Miss E ""So Addictive"" - Trina ""The Baddest *****"""
+14108,1,Ruined by Hollywood,"I read the book ""Captains Courageous"" by Rudyard Kipling (great book, excellent message, very difficult language) with my children. Knowing they missed much of the story, we watched this movie to fill in the blanks for them.What a waste! We were disappointed in many ways. They changed the story terribly! In the book Harvey is not an orphan, his best friend doesn't die, and the captain is an excellent role model, not some ultra-distant and sometimes emotionally outraged man. It was horrible! We all agreed that the storyline was far better as originally written. It wasn't a case of a few minor details being changed, the entire virtue of the story was diminished. Why? Why? Why?Looks like there is a 1937 version we'll have to try. Back then I'm sure it was okay to teach life lessons about working hard, growing up, and appreciating family without needing to write them out of the storyline or making it really cheesy in the process."
+14109,2,"cute, funny","Not a movie I want to watch EVERY Christmas, but fun and easy. Nice to have running while wrapping gifts"
+14110,1,not reliable quality,"I guess I also got a defective torch! it takes 10-15 tries to get the torch to light, and the flame is hard to keep lit, when it does stay lit, I can't seem to get any sort of melting without lighting the sugar on fire and charing it. perhaps I'm using it wrong, but the directions are VERY vauge. the ramekins are great, but the torch...Do yourself a favor and do what the pros do, go down to your local hardware store and buy a butane torch. it'll run you about $10, and the fuel is included."
+14111,2,Great monitor!,I use this monitor at work every day. It is great. Very bright and works with analog or digital signals. You won't be dissappointed with this or any other Samsung monitor.
+14112,2,Great Charger for didital camera use,"I bought this charger for use with my digital camera (Canon Powershot). I love it, it charges relatively quickly and shuts off when fully charged so there is no risk of over charging the batteries. I have not noticed the unit becoming hot or even warm during charging as someone else comented on. It is very compact which makes it easy to travel with. As it has dual voltage with the right converter you can use it anywhere. I have used mine in Ireland, England and New Zealand with no problems. The ability to charge either 2 or 4 batteries is also a nice feature. In my camera the batteries have what I find to be a good amount of life before they need to be recharged. I have accidentally popped the cover off when opening but it pops back on just as easily. I am completely satisfied with this charger and batteries for digital camera usage and recommend it."
+14113,1,Waste of money,I wish I could give it 0 stars. I read a few chapters and put it down. Its just blah blah blah with nothing helpful. Perhaps someone who knows nothing about the market may benefit but otherwise look elsewhere.
+14114,1,Wrong,"My Name is Megan. I only read the back of this book but it is not very accurate. It personnally seems to me that adults have a harder time with death then children do. The back of the book also stated: ""Parents of preschool age to the teen years..."" Oh my goodness! That is so wrong! I know no one will listen to me because no one ever does and that is why I hate being a teenager and I hated being a kid when I was one, but grown-ups think they know everything and they think they know how kids feel, but if you have to write a book like this then you obviously don't!"
+14115,1,on the edge,"On the edge was a good plot for a movie. But was poorly acted, and over all poorly done, if you are looking for a good drama, as I said the plot was great, but the acting bore me."
+14116,1,An OK book that is out of date.,"This was an OK book in it's time, but it is now completely out of date. This book covers InstallShield 5, which is not supported on Windows ME, Windows 2000, or Windows XP. Both InstallShild 6 and InstallShield Windows Installer Edition are different enought from InstallShield 5 to make this book obsolete."
+14117,2,Don't knock a good thing,"I purchased this book about a month ago and found some of these reviews to be very amusing. I know by experience that this happens to be a really great book. Seems to me that some of these people don't know a good thing even if it came up and shook their hand. If you are looking for a good manual, you've found it here..."
+14118,1,Where is the man in this book?,"I still prefer McFeely's book on General Grant to this one. Smith is a respected historian, but comes to Grant with a big handicap: he knows nothing about him. No matter how hard Smith crammed on Grant, you can't turn yourself into an expert in one or two years.There is nothing about Grant's children in this book. For a man so devoted to his family, this is a terrible ommission. There is also very little in this book about Mrs. Grant, to whom the General was fanatically devoted. Why did Smith stint on Grant's private life? This is the eternal mystery."
+14119,2,Super Easy Ice Cream!,"I love this machine! I am an ice-cream nut, so I'm a little bit biased - but only since this machine makes making ice cream so easy! You do have to freeze the bowl beforehand, which is a slight inconvenience, but unless you're planning to make a ton of ice cream all at the same time it's no big deal. It also makes GOOD ice cream - I haven't had a complaint yet! Highly recommend!"
+14120,2,very pleased,"I have been looking for this product all over town. I had one for over 15 years and could not find a replacement. Until I did a search and found this one on here. I received it in a matter of days, and started using it that day. I am very pleased with my choice. I just wish I could of had a choice of color.. Oh well I am still happy with it."
+14121,2,"Great, great, great!!","I think Ms. Lowell will always be one of my favorite authors. Both her first book, (WHEN THE STORM BREAKS) and this book, are the best well-written romantic suspense novels, in my opinion. I like her books because they are detailed with excellent plots and strong lead characters. As you read, you can't put them down and Ms Lowell gives her books just the right amount of chapters, to keep you enthralled for more than a day or two. I loved it, and I can't wait for the next book."
+14122,1,Wrong Part Title,"I searched for a ""Braun 3000 Series InterFace/InterFace Excel"", and got three results so bought lowest priced one.I received a ""Braun System 1-2-3 3000"" instead of what I thought I was ordering. It now is obvious that YoungZebra had the wrong name on their product window. So be careful when ordering from YoungZebra, check them out thoroughly.Braun 3000 Series InterFace/Interface Excel Replacement Pack"
+14123,2,Reggae 2007,"Unfortunately, it was almost impossible to rate this item, because everytime you order it from Amazon or a seller on Amazon, you are sent Reggae Gold 2007 instead.There are 2 different CDs, yet no one looks closely enough at the titles to make the distinction. After months of receiving and returning the wrong CD, they eventually sent the right one and it was certainly worth the wait. No one ever likes all of the songs on one CD but overall a good line up of songs."
+14124,2,Snow Drift Cutter Kit,Rate 4 given because I have not been able to use them so far this year.Like the weight and mounting.Anyone that lives with big snow falls.
+14125,2,Favorite of Three Generations,"My mom and I absolutely loved this book when I was a kid, and I'm now introducing it to my son. What a treat to revisit this story and to share it among three generations!"
+14126,1,Low quality or QC (quality control) issues,"The stitching at the thumb started pulling apart after only 4 uses of these gloves - about 30 minutes of usage each time across the span of 2 weeks at a boxing fitness class. Even though these are inexpensive gloves, that doesn't mean they should be expected to fall apart after only 4 uses. Either I got a defective pair of gloves, or all of the gloves are just low quality / durability. I think you're better off buying other comparable gloves if possible."
+14127,1,Starts off nice,"These socks were very comfortable, and looked great.I did not experience sock shrinkage like some people....they're wool: wash on cold, air dry them.Only problem is they now have a gaping hole in both big toes,after only 6 wearings. Not durable at all.I have size 13 feet btw... maybe they will hold up better for people with small feet."
+14128,1,"Great Cable, bad quality control","This cable gave great video but was still a defective product. The colors on two of the connectors were swapped with respect to the colors on the opposite end. I had already installed this cable, into a difficult location, when I discovered it did not work. I checked continuity and had two of the three cables open to the other end so I assumed I must have damaged these connectors when pulling through some tight places. I decided to change them rs and, unfortunately, had already cut one of the ""bad"" connector ends before I discovered the colors were merely swapped. I verified this by checking the continuity of the cut connector, which was fine. The other ""bad"" cable worked fine when it was plugged into the right color. Now, I had to buy expensive compression fittings and an expensive compression crimping tool simply to rework something that did not actually need it. This expense and frustration should have never happened."
+14129,2,LOVE this!,Does an excellent job. It does take a few uses to get your feet perfect and then it's just upkeep. These are really the way to go. Just like what they use in the professional nail salons.
+14130,1,"Worst Steven King book, avoid!","I am actually a fan of Steven King, but for a time he just really seemed to run out of good ideas and was trying to get a bit too clever. This travesty is the result. He tries to do a ""stream of consciousness"" type of book, trying to take us into this woman's mind, and what she is thinking about and it just doesn't work, it's terribly boring and annoying. This is one of the few books I really had to strain to finish, as it was so unpleasant to read. Not sure why I did bother to finish it, other than just determination to not leave a book unread, but the ending certainly didn't leave me feeling any more satisfied than the rest of the book."
+14131,2,"""TO THE HUNT!""","Big Game Hunter 6 is a game that one (child or adult)could literally play for hours. Why?For starters, it is incredibly realistice. You have the choice of several rifles, bows, you can use calls, set up a blind, camp for the night, hunt at various times, and ride a pick-up or a three-wheeler.A couple of things you cannot do is (a)shoot game ""out of season,"" and (b)shoot another hunter, or a game warden. You'll be immediately stopped in your tracks, read the riot act, and you'll have to start your hunt anew.My son and I have spent hours together on the computer hunting game in Wyoming, Alabama, etc, during all kinds of weather.A wonderful way to spend time with your son, or space out after a long day at work."
+14132,1,Mediocre at best!,"1/4 STAR . . . if THAT! - - - Hoooohum. I was a fan of this band, but this album is mediocre at very best. There is all kinds of music out there just waiting to be discovered. Go find something else! This band seems to be relying on their former popularity to promote a blah effort. If this was a new band, the songs on this CD wouldn't get 'em out of the garage!"
+14133,1,Run very small,I thought perhaps time on the shoe stretcher and leather softening liquid would work on these so I didn't send them back. My efforts at alteration did not work. I have had Propet shoes that did fit - must have been a different last. My foot is short and wide. I bought it in a 6 extra wide. Maybe they will be all right for people who have trouble finding shoes that are narrow enough.
+14134,2,Came quickly good price,"The book came quickly (3 days) and was in acceptable condition, slightly used as was stated. It was hardback and I hope to get many years of use out of it."
+14135,1,READ THE BOOK OF JOEL!,"I cannot believe the testimony of this book because of the fact that it misrepresents Scripture. For anyone who reads this book or who has read this book - check her references to the Book of Joel. Actually, check all of her Biblical references carefully. Joel is a short, quick read, so go ahead and read the whole thing. You will see that what Baxter has written in reference to Joel and what the Bible actually says are two very different things.I would consider this book dangerous, because it is fiction misrepresenting itself as Christian fact. I read this in an independent study of the spiritual realm of Christianity in an academic setting, so I would say that if you just want to see what's written on the subject for academic purposes only, then fine, it was a VERY interesting perspective. However, proceed to read this book only with extreme caution!"
+14136,2,"One of best books read to my children, also enjoyed by me.","Better than the book Wizard of Oz by far. Imaginative. A very special book for girls. A very resourceful heroine without being too sweet, unusual for the time. Young boys will like it also, plenty of action."
+14137,1,Shorter than the description claims,"I carefully measured my tripod and ball head before ordering this bag. They measured 31 long, so the bag was supposed to be 31 1/2 inches. Well the bag is a little short! Yeah I can get it in there but not like the fit should be. A real strain on the zipper and you cannot stand the bag up like you should be able to."
+14138,1,SLEEP- O -MATIC! GUARENTEED SLEEP IN LESS THAN 15min,A complete waste of my time. About two boys who are left home alone. They basically just fight and call eachother names. Who needs this video when you have kids that do the same thing live! Do not waste your time and money on this piece of trash. ( I suggest getting good burger for your kids)
+14139,2,"It may not have been the best, but.....","Tristan and Genevieve did have theit little spats, I agree. I wasn't too high on her slap either, but she did suggest getting rid of the baby. Tristan had no choice but to take Edenby as they both served under different Kings. as with all Shannon Drake books, her two star crossed lovers were in great turmoil and it takes all of the 200 hundred and some odd pages to overcome this, but when I think about it, the only reason they were really fighting is because they loved one another! I enjoyed this book and am certainly glad to have it in my collection."
+14140,2,Omron HEM-711AC Automatic Blood Pressure Monitor,We use this blood pressure monitor every day and find it to be veryaccurate when compared to our Doctor checks. It is very easy to use.We would recommend it to everyone.
+14141,2,Very Pleased Mom,I have a 2003 Mini Cooper which I adore. I did a lot of research to find the right car seat that would work for my daughter AND fit in the car. I found it to be easy to install and comfortable for a 4 1/2 year old who is constantly falling asleep in the car. She loves it - and I do too!
+14142,1,What a DOG of a flick,"I love Pulp Fiction, so I thought this must be a great movie, too. I'm baffled by the positive reviews. This movie has a great cast but a simple plot. I kept waiting for it to make some sense or interest me. It never happened. Once is too many times to view this movie. Don't waste your money. It doesn't live up to all the hype."
+14143,2,Ray Bradbury fan,"My all time favorite book has been Martin Chronicles, so this is a very great surprise for me, to read several essays from different experts. And learn more about such classic.And it doesn't end there, they analyze more of his stories. I don't know if Mr. Bradbury will agree on this book, but it did enlight me."
+14144,2,A Must Have,This book is a must have. It's a great read. Perfect for anyone even if you're not a Doors fan. It reveals the rock star for the poet he truely is. I keep imagining what Jim must be up to now. Can't wait for the next volume.
+14145,2,So it ain't Shakespeare...,"Les Miserables is one of the most droll, boring plays I've ever seen. Do yourself a favor and buy Avenue Q. It will make your day and annoy your straightlaced friends. We need more laughter and less angst in life."

The evidence is out there for the ignorant masses that ask for it, but you don't want to see it.3. The ""Gaps"" in the fossil record incontrovertibly PROVE evolution to be true because if g-d made everything at once we wouldn't have the fossil record. Get it? There wouldn't be a trail of fossils to find.4. There is also 100% no g-d. All you people need to be medicated.5. The level of human ignorance saddens me daily."
+14147,2,So... What Happened??,"Circa 1988 a couple of guys named Mark Long and Marcus Bell formed a group called So and put out this album. The music video for the song ""Are You Sure"" was played on MTV for a couple of weeks and then *poof* was gone. It's a shame really because I thought ""Are You Sure"" was fantastic and I was certain that So would go far, or at least farther than total obscurity. If you're really into very good yet relatively unknown 80's new wave/pop music, then I definitely recommend picking up this CD. ""Are You Sure"" is worth it by itself, and the other songs aren't too bad as well!"
+14148,1,Not actually terminated at K2,"I ordered these hoping that they would be terminated atK2 (Adventure Press)so I could listen to theMusic of a Sherpa Village. Imagine my disappointment to find they terminated right in my living room. I guess the 8 foot length should have been a tip-off. They do go well with myWalker Edison Everest Multilevel Component Stand, Clear/Silverstereo stand, though.Still, if you are a fan of K2, (Book of the Dead), Mountain (Best of) or related music (At Fillmore EastMountain Jam,Foggy Mountain Breakdown), you could do worse by plugging a 12,000-mile garden hose in one ear and hiring someone to actually terminate the other end at K2. That would sound worse and cost more."
+14149,1,Why is the price of the MAC Version 5 time the price of the PC version?,"What the tile says.Shame on Amazon, fix this please. I would buy this game but not at this price."
+14150,1,UGH,"It has been said that sometimes stupid is funny, sometimes it isn't. This is a movie where it isn't. Avoid at all costs."
+14151,1,Find another solution,"I have only one set of RCA cables running thru my wall into my 50"" plasma. I wanted to hook up the wii and the DVD player, so I was in the market for a switch. I read other reviews about interference, but I thought I'd get lucky. I didn't. There are slow rolling bands of dark picture that constantly scan the screen. If you're any kind of TV fan you'd never accept this. I'm just too lazy to return it. Avoid this product and get a remote controlled a/v switch."
+14152,1,Slow and not user-friendly,"I chose garmin over tom tom due to good reviews before i bought this product. Though, I'm disappointed. I have it set to ""fastest route"" and it gave me local streets than highway (which is faster, because I've tested). It's just not a very ""smart"" gps if you have high expectations, then you'll be real disappointed with this purchase. I'm thinking about returning it to amazon."
+14153,1,Horrible Film,"If you had an enemy and were inclined to try to find a way to get him to commit suicide, you might start by prompting him to watch this depressing piece of garbage. Aside from some nice shots of Chicago, this picture has nothing whatever going for it.Except that is for those who really get off on seeing Nicholas Cage ""in character"" as a morose, angry, depressed,psychotic boring putz, the only role he seems able to fill."
+14154,1,Bad Design for such expensive brakes.,"Not happy at all. I was expecting higher quality for the price I paid. One of the spring wires fell off and was very poorly designed. Basically the wire was fitted around a rivet and peened over, problem was not enought metal was peened over. I had to go the NAPA and get brakes because I already had my tire off and old brakes removed when I found out they were defective. Returned them alright though. Bad design. They need to rethink and redesign those wires."
+14155,1,not worth free,These timers are horrible. They are not worth FREE ... if they gave them away you would NOT want one. They are problematic and setting them is beyond hard. Don't make the mistake of trying one.
+14156,1,Not my favorite,"Unfortunately, I believe this CD is an example of a trend in cabaret recordings. It has become possible to create a CD with a minimal amount of expense and production, so many vocalists are able to put out CDs that could not have before, without the benefit of a major label to ensure quality.This also means that the average cabaret fan can sift through a lot of albums to find the good ones. For me, this was not one.I was impressed to see that Stephen Schwartz had played on some of these songs, but the true test of a singer and any vocal performance CD is the quality of their voice. There is a nasal tone to Scott Coulter that I just can't get past, even though I tried. The choices of songs are all good (Nobody's Side and Get Here are examples of really good songs), and this definitely tempts you, but the results are consistently not as good as interpretations found of the same material elsewhere."
+14157,2,Country Rock Cool,"Saw them live and had to get a CD. I'm now a fan. If you like country rock with an edge toward country, you'll like this."

+14159,2,Great product at a great price,I had recently seen this product at a local store for $19. I then decided to check Amazon and found the same product for much less. After receiving the headset I have found it to excede my expectation and recommend it to anyone who is planning on buying a headset.
+14160,1,The WORST Baby Einstein I've Seen,"It's horrible! There is WAY too much computer animation. Plus, repeating an entire segment/song is not a good idea for young children -- that's boring. I thought we needed every Baby Einstein DVD. But I was wrong. My daughter would much rather watch some of her other Baby Einsteins than this one. Don't waste your money!"
+14161,1,Actually not worth the money.,"The markers we got were not washable ones. Also, the chalk breaks apart so easily. It's a cute idea and the main body of the Easel is sturdy. The letters are really tiny so not good for a young toddler. We're goingto get a stand-up easel for our grandson in a few months. They're of course more expensive but will be worth it."
+14162,2,Switchfoot's best album yet!,"For all you music fans who thought that Switchfoot's last album ""New Way To Be Human"" was as good as it gets, think again. The new album ""Learning To Breathe"" is an outstanding project, exploring new musical territory while drawing the listener in with very accessible and catchy melodies. Hats off to Switchfoot!"
+14163,2,Wonderful to Hear The Real Plath Reading Her Work,"The only reasons I gave this audiobook 4 stars is that it lacks any introduction to each poem - does not even give a title. I know Plath generally announced something about her poetry when she read for BBC.It would have been helpful to include a small booklet of the poems read simiar to Anne Sexton's Audiobook.I wish more poems had been included. The actual audiobook is pretty sparse.I was delighted to hear her mature beyond her years voice reading one poem from the original ""Ariel"" -- about the death of her neighbor Perce, entitled ""Berek-Plage"".Her voice is powerful, full of anger and anguish that builds in such intensity it is though she is in the room with you."

+14166,2,My new favorite CD!,I was blown away by the new My Chemical Romance cd! It is awesome! I heard from a friend that the cd rocked so i just had ta check it out. I had never heard of My Chemical Romance before and im always into checkin out new bands so i went out and bought the cd for a reasonable price and i thought it was awesome! I really like their style of music and how My Chemical Roamce is very different from a lot of other bands out there now. I really enjoyed this cd and it is always in my computer playin while im surfing the internet or chilling out! I would really suggest this cd to anyone thats looking for a new favorite band and a new favorite cd to play all the time!
+14167,1,not really worth the $,"I have loved all of the Avent products but these just really didn't work for us. I had no problems with leaking just washing EVERY piece that goes with each cup, and keeping track of them all -- pain in the butt! Each cup has 6 pieces and 4 of them are essential for making the cups work, so if you missplace one, your outta luck! I bought about 12 of these cups and after a few weeks of use, i sold them ...!"

+14169,1,Please wake me when it's over........,"Ive waited for this movie since my sister told me she saw it back in 82 at the theatre. I never believed her that there was a movie called THE BOOGENS because it was never released until now....but after I watched it,I wished she never told me about the movie because it would have saved me an hour and a half when I could have watched a better movie like darkness LOL! Id give it a 0 star but it wont let me."
+14170,2,C'est La Vie: An American Woman Begins a New Life in Paris,"This book is a reality check. It's hard to read because it isn't all ""hearts & flowers"" about Paris and France. She had a hard time and details her struggles. But go to the finish. You'll be so glad you did!There is so much good information but I also found it fun to follow her adaptation to the French culture.This is a great book to give someone who is thinking about moving to France; Paris in particular. They might have a chance of having all the paperwork it will take to rent an apartment!"

+14174,2,Good movie for a family.,I thought this was a good movie because it showed what friendship is all about. Four girls who stuck together through the hard times during the summer and who also stuck up for each other against some boys who were always teasing them.
+14175,1,Begrudging,"I have never read a book by Fern Michaels, and I have no intentions of reading another book by her!I decided to buy this narrative because the story line grabbed my attention. But, the author failed to deliver a good story.IT'S STUPID!!! I really wish writers would put more time and effort into their projects. There is no way she tried to put her best effort into this story. IT'S TOO STUPID!!!"
+14176,1,Way too much fluff,"I am not a scientist, but in past years I've enjoyed the stretch of reading the ""best"" series. I have counted on really good, meaty articles that offered up some of the most interesting and stimulating thinking about science and nature to be brought within the reach of readers like me.Not so this year. The majority of the articles in this anthology are simply entertainment. A superficial personality piece about James Watson. An article about trends in baby names. Etc. This is waiting room material--good for passing time, but not for learning or provoking thought.Normally, I only bother to write reviews when a book is so wonderful I want to encourage others to read it. But this one was such a letdown, I wanted to take the trouble to warn others away. I don't know if the editors just made bad selections this year, or if the material they included really WAS the best of 2004. If the latter, it's a scary thought!"
+14177,2,The Best Comic I've Ever Read,"This is probably the best comic I've ever read. It's actually a four book series (The Electric Tale of Pikachu, Pikachu Shocks Back, Electic Pikachu Boogaloo and Surf's Up Pikachu). I got these when the first came out when they were magazines with flimsy covers and pages you have to be extremely careful with. When I finally got around to getting the last to parts they had finally been released in paperback. I liked the paperback so much that I bought the other two parts in paperback. I'd recommend that you get the paperback for several reasons. First of all: It's easier to store. Second: It's easier to carry around with you. The magazines are actually four different magazines each part. (So in total you would have 16 little magazines to carry around if you wanted to have them with you. A real hassle.. trust me)."

+14180,2,Perfect fit,"Regular size tights must be made for skinny short people because I am average size and a large regular costume tight never had enough material to make it all the way around my bottom and would slip down the entire time I was wearing them. The 1X in these tights, although a little big, had plenty of room and do not constantly roll up or down and are very comfortable. These went great with my Alice costume"
+14181,2,"Beautiful, Funny...you won't be disappointed","I found this movie on one of the movie channels and recorded it on a whim because I loved My Big Fat Greek Wedding. Since then I've kept it on my dvr and watch it over and over. I'm now giving in to buying the blu-ray. My almost teenager daughter and her friends have seen it and love it too. Even my husband enjoys it when he's in the right mood (don't tell his poker club!). The scenery is fantastic. It makes me itchy to visit Greece - and I HATE to fly!. This is the right movie when you are just in the mood for an easy, funny (Richard Dreyfuss is fantastic! and how can you not love a handsome guy named Poopy Kakas?), great movie. It's NOT over an over the top mushy rom-com. And Now....We Dance!!!"
+14182,1,don't be fooled by color cover. absurd product deception.,"although this book is 379 pages, weighs five pounds and has almost 2000 photographs there is not a single color photo between the covers. how could any serious writer or publisher charge almost 100 dollars and not have one nice glossy photo of the 20th century's greatest artwork. i might as well buy the color blind version of the color wheel the next time i paint my house or the out of focus print of Citizen Kane. buyer beware!!bpm.2012."

+14184,2,Best Singer Ever?,"This album has found it's way into my regular rotation despite the fact that I'm not a particularly big fan of Soul or R&B. The music on this album is universal - and it's appeal is undeniable no matter what your musical preference may be.Green is the best singer I've ever heard, and I don't mean he has the best voice - he doesn't. Green's appeal relies in his feel for the music and his subtlety. He rarely screams or bellows - so when he does you know it must be important. Rather than singing loudly or busily, Green's pleasantly wavering voice employs a series of quiet falsetto whispers and guttural moans and groans to convey the meanings of the songs.My personal favorite, other than the obviously wonderful ""Let's Stay Together"" is his cover of ""I Can't Get Next to You"", complete with an acid-rock guitar solo.If you don't own this, you're missing something big."
+14185,2,Animals,"Animals is a great album written by Pink Floyd. No matter who you are, you can relate to this album, being that it is about the three types of humans in the world. Not their best work, but better than MORE"
+14186,2,A NON-FICTION PAGE-TURNER!!,"SMALL TOWN GHOSTS is well-written and highly fascinating from beginning to end, packed with actual case studies -- along with techniques for the novice, armchair ghost hunter, and expert in the field. If you love to read personal, well-documented accounts of paranormal research, or if you want to get into paranormal research, this book is for you."
+14187,2,One of the best,"Morgan does an excellent job in the area of historical fiction of the precedents for the Irish hatred of the British. It is a book you will not put down. It is factual and written with clarity, intensity and a sense of the sustained futility of the hopelessness of the Prince's band. Her knowledge of the times, the issues, and the terrain are substantiated by the facts that she walked the entire trek. She is an American writer now residing in Ireland . Our loss , the Irish gain. Water seeks it own level."
+14188,2,Clear your calender,"This game is one of the coolest games I've ever played. It has a few slow spots, but it should come with a warning label: Caution very addictive. You can get lost in the game and before you realize 4-5 hours have gone by. I would recommend this game to anyone. If your a fan of Star Wars or RPGs you'll love this one."
+14189,1,"Poor Man's ""Bose""","[Please note: I give this product 4 stars, not 2. I could not change that].The headphones basically do what they claim to do. They are light and comfortable. I like the design. They look a lot like the first Bose version, but are a bit bigger. The batteries go into the headphone part, so there is no clumsy ""battery box"" externally, which is nice. Sound I would rate a 6 or 7 on a scale of 1 to 10 (10 being best). Noise cancellation is pretty decent. There is a minor problem with the NC, though. When mine is turned and I am plugged into a laptop or Ipod, I get a loud buzzing noise. When I unplug the Ipod from the wall power source, the buzzing stops. If that bugs you, I would not recommend them. But they are decent when you are not hooked into a wall power source, and are very similar to Bose's NC headphones, which cost about 6 times more. I can recommend them, for this price. Would be good on a plane trip if you are not a ""snob"" in terms of sound."

+14191,1,SKIP THIS ONE UNLESS YOU'RE OBSESSIVE!!,"Here we have yet ANOTHER in the long line of Joni Mitchellcompilation CD's. First there was ""Hits"", then ""Misses"",then ""Travelogue"" where she reinterpreted (with a syrupyorchestra to enhance what's left of her voice) her catalog,then ""Dreamland"", then ""The Beginning of Survival"", and now""Songs Of A Prairie Girl"". I find it interesting that anartist who has criticized corporate greed on many occasionsfeels the need to milk her fans for yet another $15 bucks apop. Yes, the songs are strung together to present them ina different context, but so what? Anyone can do that themselves.Joni, if you're serious about retiring, then RETIRE. If youwant to release a legit boxed set with rarities, live cuts,etc. I'm all for it. But enough of these stale repackagingsof your songs! You're using up a lot of your fans' goodwill."
+14192,2,A great 3D scrapbooking sticker set for girl themed pages,"Like many other Jolee's Dimensional Sticker sets, this is a great collection of themed items. However, I'd find a cheaper seller to buy them from, as $4.99 plus shipping is too much to pay for any such set, and there are other stores and places to buy these from with a better price."
+14193,1,One of the worst movies i've ever sat through.,"I'm not one to walk out of the movie once i've started watching it,but in retrospect if I could pick 2 hours of my lifeI could have back...I would have preferred to never see this movie.Biggest load of garbage i've seen produced in main."
+14194,1,Don't Believe The Hype !,"On the surface there were a couple of amusing moments but this was a depressingly cliched and formualic piece of fiction . What really disappointed me was the lack of rythmn vibrancy and energy in the novel ,the author never fully caputuring the mood and atmosphere of a busy Fashion House . At best this was a stilted memoir of a Fashion Intern desperate to be something more . None of the characters are fully explored and there are weaknesses in plot structure and narrative . An endless array of mind numbing vacuosity none of which is glossed with salacious gossip or anything you can chew on . Another piece of mediocrity falling victim to its own hype ."
+14195,1,Shameful,Don't waste your money on something played on TV over and over. Nothing new and nothing interesting. Amber is just a money-hungry person who is capitalizing on a sad murder. [...]
+14196,2,Just the right size for my small home,I ordered this because I moved to a smaller home and the bigger container I had was too big. I love this size. Good quality. Works great in my smaller space.
+14197,2,the best!!!!!!,"this is a really good RPG game for fans. your characters can get really good with the right weapons and experience. the monsters are really tough too, but it just makes it more challenging. you can feel the excitement when you come close to completing a mission or killing a big horde of stuff. buy it!"

+14199,2,Mariah always delivers a good album!,"""Rainbow"" is a nice blend of R&B and Pop music. It is still indifferent to Carey's previous albums, but still offers a bit of change this time around. ""Rainbow"" boasts the #1 hit ""Heartbreaker"" and the hip/hop style remix feat. Missy and Da Brat. Other R&B style tracks are ""X-Girlfriend"", produced/written by the writing duo Shek'speare and Kandi who brought the hits ""No Scrubs"" and ""Bills, Bills, Bills"" and ""Crybaby"" which features rapper Snoop Dogg. The album is still filled with ballads such as the sultry ""Can't Take That Away (Mariah's Theme)"" and ""Thank God I Found You"" w/ boyband 98 Degrees and R&B singer Joe, written/produced by Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis who is best known for their work with Janet Jackson. Mariah's fans will not be disappointed with this album, so if you are one of them then I suggest you add this to your collection today."
+14200,2,Great Mug,"Cover fits good so it won't leak. Only thing about it, can warm up the fluid in the Microwave and can't use it on a cup warmer due to the rubber bottom. For traveling, its great."
+14201,1,Volume control does not work,Received product on time and in good condition. Sound is great for price. A little uncomfortable when wearing for long periods. My main complaint is that the volume control on the set I received does not work at all. I will be returning item for an exchange. I will update review after that process. If volume controll worked rating would be higher.
+14202,1,"Remake ""Auntie Mame""? WHY????","Once upon a time, someone told Lucille Ball she could sing....and she believed them! Not only CAN'T she sing, she CAN'T act either. In ""Mame"", Ball has taken one of the best films of our time....the original ""Auntie Mame"".....and literally made it unrecognizeable. If you're a fan of the original, this hashed remake is actually painful to watch.Pure and simple, this movie is DREADFUL."
+14203,1,flimsy case,"Just as 1 year warranty expired display went garbled. From day one, casing felt flimsy -while pressing keys, case would rattle like interior of a mid-80's mustang. Not sure if rattle would have been reason for warranty replacement, but i'm sure that cheap assembly was it's ultimate demise.Although calculator was feature rich and came with great manual, thats about all that can be said for it."

+14205,1,Not a Good One at All!,"This was perhaps the absolute worse Jonathan Kellerman going!I have read at least two-thirds of his novels most of which are quite pleasing and entertaining, some more wierd than others...Not good at all! Really!At any rate, I agree completely ( as does my wife), who feels as did a recent reviewer; it would be incredibly fantastic to find that this novel was not something from his distant past, that was now thrown in for a quick hit....It was formal, unlike any other of his novels, truly BORING X 10, and we barely got through it on a relaxing summer vacation.Both of us felt it was just terrible at best! Rent it on audio book at the library, that way you can stand the horribly slow plot culminating in a relatively exciting (much needed) ending...."
+14206,1,Doesn't Deliver,"This book sounds great, but sadly doesn't come close to what it could be. The author repeatedly leads the reader and then does not follow through. It almost seems that the author is too concerned about offending people and is afraid to go to the place he wants to go with the plot. He skirts around things and does not provide enough hard fact and detail to support his story. Either you ""go there"" or you don't, but make it clear. Disappointing read."
+14207,1,disappointed,The light output is very dim. I wanted to illuminate a flag from a few feet away. It won't illuminate at all.
+14208,2,Because of Winn Dixie,"one thing I liked about this book was thedewberry booys were funny and I liked that winn dixie smiles at people. my favorite part is when opal finds the dog in the store....by Carl, 3rd grade."
+14209,1,Not Bad,"This book is based on Jacqueline's (Joaquina)childhood. My only comment is that she distorted the facts and attacked someone (her older sister) whom is really a good person. She is not as dumb, mean or as ugly as she describes her. Joaquina should have taken into consideration that her sister was in the same boat as she was. Go get professional help, you need it."
+14210,2,Great for kids!,Fits my 7 year old perfectly but still has room to grow and would fit a smaller child.
+14211,2,Evelyn Keyes bio,"This is the second part of Evelyn Keyes' biography. The first part is Scarlett O'Hara's Little Sister. You should read that one first for some of the incidents and comments in the second book to make sense. An interesting, chatty, gossipy look at the life of an actress in Hollywood of the 30's and 40's. And how did she put up with Artie Shaw all those years?? Recommended for old movie buffs."
+14212,2,(...) Opinion....oops 6 1/2,This watergun is very strong. My friend Stephen can not defeat me with his tiny pistols because this watergun has a shield. The one part I do not like is the crank; I would prefer one with a pump.
+14213,1,This is what spoiled it for me...,"George was out playing alone when he encountered two men in a vehicle whom he had NEVER met before. They were friendly and told him that he was talented. The next thing we know is that the three of them get into the cab and drive off. Oh dear !!This isn't the sort of thing I'd wish to encourage, would you ?One positive thing about the tale is that it provoked discussion aboutnever going away with strangers even if they seem nice.We like the Curious George books and appreciate the fact that they were written quite some time ago, but when reading to impressionable kids it's good to make sure that you approve of the content."
+14214,2,I WATCH THIS EVERYDAY!,I LOVEEEE this movie! take it from a 12 year old girl i can live without this movie! why do i like it? im not sure...maybe cuz i love the olsen twins? and i love the setting of the movie! the BAHAMAS! i have never been there before so its great watching it. i love ASHLEY OLSEN THE MOST! shes soo pretty! i love the plot on how they get all in trouble in teh bahamas and meet some hot guys~! i admit it is really corny once it gets to the part where the police get involved and their parents actually LET them off in the bahamas with a guy they JUST met...yes weird..BUT I LOVE THIS MOVIE!!
+14215,2,International Velvet,"I have watched this movie many many times and it is still a favorite. The first time I saw it in the theater my friend and I cried through almost the entire thing and I still do. It is heartwarming, entertaining and being a horse lover it meets all my requirements for a great movie. All four main characters are wonderfully cast. The scene where they retire ""Pie"" still gives me a lump in my throat it is so touching. The scenery is also beautiful. I highly recommend this movie to anyone."
+14216,2,A glimpse at historical religious Jewry,"Gluckel of Hameln is the diary of a frum woman from the 1600's. We don't have any real information from this period except from some unavailable books of Rabbi Yaakov Emden. In her diary, she speaks of events of life, death, the Plague, Shabsai Tzvi, and how she raised her family during this hard time in Jewish History.This version of the book come in paperback and is annotated. The translation from the original version is pretty good considering that some words don't translate well from one language to another. The introduction gives some of her story away but important to read to understand her approach in writing this diary.I bought this book and have given it to my best friends for motivational and historical reading. BUY THIS BOOK!"
+14217,2,Made me think deeply,"This book was great. I like travel books, and if you're smart enough to understand this one, you'll love it. This book's insights gave me a new spiritual clarity."
+14218,2,Warm Fuzzy Memories,I grew up with the Walton's and many aspects of the show reflect my own family life. I was delighted to receive this CD and have practically worn it out listening to it on my way back and forth to work. I highly recommend it to all Walton fans and to anyone who likes downhome goodness. It just leaves you with that warm fuzzy feeling.
+14219,1,Not the best of what's around,"One must realize that while reviewing, I am putting this cd on par with the other DMB live albums. I will come out and say it, this album is simply not the best. I base this on the sole reason that all live albums should be based upon: 1)this album does not defer so much from the regular studio albums, 2) the basic sound quality is not fantastic, and 3) the two other live albums blow this one in the wind. So, if you are thinking of purchasing a live DMB album, get either the soothing Luther College, or the fantastic Listener Support. If you have both of those . . . well, I'm such a DMB fan that I have to say get this one too."
+14220,1,go figure,"What do you do when you give up your spirtually unfulfilling but financially rewarding job only to find that its a cold, hard world out their? You write a book about it in the desperate hope that it will make you some money."
+14221,2,Easy Install,"I was then able to connect it to my power cord using the kind of metal stress relief cable clamp you can buy at the local hardware store, but even then it was difficult because the cable clamp wasn't big enough to fit secure. through the hole in the body of the disposer where the grommet came out. I made do though, and the final result was fine. All of the water and drain aspects went flawlessly. I purchased and installed this Disposer and am happy with it, overall. My only complaint is that the unit arrived with a conventional 3-prong power cord already installed through a grommet in the side. I had to hook up to a metal shielded 3-wire cable under my sink. Of course i had to remove the power cord on the unit, and it was quite difficult removing the grommet. Essentially i had to pry it out with a screwdriver."
+14222,1,Awful,"This product has no resemblance to green tea, in color or flavor. I tried it once and threw the rest out. I know and love Japanese style green tea, and decaf green never tastes as good as regular green. Even so, Bigelow's decaf green is much less offensive than this one. Perhaps if I didn't know this Twinings was supposed to be green tea, I wouldn't dislike it so much, but it's not worth suffering through the whole box to find out."
+14223,2,Fleetwood Mac Reunion Shows Them Back At The Top Of Their Game,"THE DANCE, Fleetwood Mac's reunion of their classic 70s lineup, features the band at their best since 1982's MIRAGE. The songs are all incredibly performed, even if ""Silver Springs"" as rendered here lacks the holiday-bell piano effects of the studio version (available on THE VERY BEST OF FLEETWOOD MAC) and Lindsey Buckingham's voice has coarsened a bit over time. The difference in the melody of ""The Chain"" is an accommodation to the changes in Buckingham's voice. The fact that the members of this lineup of Fleetwood Mac have supported efforts to free people jailed on false charges in countries not their own makes this CD an essential purchase for both your ears AND your conscience."
+14224,1,Awfully bad,As many books the beginning of this one is excellent. But as you go over and over it gets boring and boring. The book has four stories that at the end will meet and all of them are stark boring. And at the end... just skip it. Better'd be if you skip this book.
+14225,2,Its wires,Pretty hard to F up wires. Everything in the description is there in the package. Quality of insulation on wires could be better. None other issues.
+14226,1,star dust at it's finest,"This movie has an incredible cast to cover up the fact that there is no story.Sometimes an all-star cast is so much fun the story doesn't matter, not so in this particular case.This movie is long and boring because it challenges the boundaries of age, sex, race and class so unrealistically it is not to be believed. In fact the only interesting thing about the movie are all of the positves reviews. I wonder how many people would like this if it was'nt sprinkled with so much star dust. Personally I detest this sort star studded, no story kind of movie that tells you what to think, but I can't help but notice how good it has made so many older people feel, and I can't help but wonder why they can't make beautiful, tender, well acted movies with star studded casts of older actors and believable scripts so that all people can enjoy."
+14227,2,what would you do?,"When I was at university I was asked to write an essay on the ethical issues in this film. Wow, the whole idea really blows me away. What would you do it their position? It really is a tough one.It's one of those films where you can really put yourself in their shoes, not that anyone would want to. The story itself is touching and I think it's well made. I can't stop thinking about it.Oh.. and Vince Vaughn is so hot!ENJOY"
+14228,1,Improperly named book,"Writers of Perl and XML books think that they're comedians. Hint: they're not. If I want some laughs I'll watch an old episode of Seinfeld-not buy this XML book.This book's title and the author's comments suggest that you can learn XML from his book without already knowing HTML. In fact, he tells the reader to ""put away the wheelbarrows full of knowledge and predispositions you may have acquired about SGML, HTML ..."" (page xi). And on the following page Simpson states that ""in order to understand and use XML productively"" you don't have to know anything about SGML or HTML. He's correct. But if you want to learn XML from 'this book' you do have to really know them. With everything he discusses, he does so by making reference to HTML. Thus the book is totally resistant to comprehension without this prior knowledge. In fact, a more appropriate title would be ""XML for those who thoroughly know HTML""Under the new premises, this book is still way below average."
+14229,1,STRONG CHEMICAL ODOR,"I got this for our Grandpug for Easter. It's a great toy and he loves it and therefore should have 5 stars.BUT there is a very strong chemical odor to it and the box too. I put it outside for a few days, but the smell was still there. Only after spraying it every day for a week with febreeze, and I mean saturating it everyday, the odor got less but there was still an odor. I had the empty box that it came in in my garage and the chemical odor was nauseating. This product is made in China. I would not order anything made by that company again unless I can find it in a store and smell it first."
+14230,1,ramble ramble ramble,"I'll admit that I WOULD HAVE loved this book -- when I was 15. As an adult I am much more willing to work for the answers instead of throwing myself behind any ol good 'story'. However much Ms. Knight-Jadczk says she wants her readers to have an open mind... you can't tell from this book. Just when you think you have finally hit a good part that actually talks about something other than the author's ""future self"" conversations - she gives you one paragraph of something you can research and back to outer/inner/other space. The History of Laura's world is very interesting - to her - but not so much to me. I'll give it 2 stars because there are tidbits here and there that are interesting and useful, but there is nothing in here that is not available elsewhere. And you can find it without the pain of reading this book."
+14231,1,WTF,"one time use I guess...1st time worked ok, 2nd time nothing. there is no off switch so my thinking is if there is no power going to the device it should not drain the batteries if i leave it plugged in.....WRONG...not portable but disposable. but it is my fault for getting something cheap...won't happen again! can't put new batteries everytime i go to use it and not pulling batteries out everytime either."
+14232,2,I'll never eat an undercooked burger again.,"Fast Food Nation describes all the horrors of the fast food industry, from the conditions in the slaughterhouses to the high quantities of bacteria in the meat. Schlosser's analysis is both sound and riddled with detail that would perhaps be best not to know. Nevertheless, it has opened the eyes of countless readers and convinced them to never eat in a fast food ""restaurant"" again."
+14233,1,Rising Sun is a miss,"Michael Crichton's books are hit or miss. Rising Sun is a miss. I think it's supposed to be taking place during the mid to late 1980s when there was an influx of Japanese business ventures in the United States -- especially in California. I remember the xenophobic response from some people of my parents age and especially of people my grandparents age (not everyone, of course). As a teenager, I was surprised, confused and later embarrassed by the reactions of my relatives.Rising Sun is clearly playing into those sentiments and frankly I don't like it. Both cultures, American and Japanese in this book are reduced to stereotypal representations making for a boring, predicatable and insulting read."
+14234,1,Fiddle-de-dee,"This is the first and last book I will read by Ms. Coffman. What can I say, the writing was choppy (there was no flow whatsoever), the characters were underdeveloped and I kept waiting for Maresa to exlaim ""Fiddle-de-dee"" (Note: in no way, shape or form did this book compare with Gone with the Wind, though!) And not to spoil the ending for those who want to read the book regardless of this review, IT IS VERY ANTI-CLIMATIC and not worth wading through the endless pages of the book to find out, of course, that the hero and heroine end up together."
+14235,1,Fail on second use,"I bought the camouflage version of this radio, tested it once, and stored it for emergency use. Tonight we had a power failure and pulled the radio out to use the light function. After cranking for a few minutes I discovered that every function worked EXCEPT for the light. Second use, and already part of it's dead, and it's the light of all things. Not impressed."
+14236,2,Pinocchio 2 Disc Anniversary Edition,This movie is a classic and one that I enjoyed as a child growing up. The xtras on this set make it even more endearing for young and old alike.
+14237,1,"Too ""Foo Foo""",This book had some interesting points but the overall theme was not for me. I felt that it was too sexual and feminine. I am glad that it works for others but did not help me.
+14238,1,it sucks,"I don't have much to say about this cd, there's only one good song on this album called 'Fight Fire With Fire', the rest just sucks. I don't recommend this album, cause it will disapoint you very much. When you here the first track, you probably think I'm wrong, but what did I said? I said the first song is the only good one! The rest sucks! So save your money on this one!"
+14239,1,Buy A Cassette Adapter Instead If You Have a Cassette Deck,"Stay away from this product. Based on my experience and that of other reviewers, it's hard to believe that this product was subjected to any realistic tests before they sold it. I bought two of these - one for my son and one for me. Unless I reach behind the seat of my two seater and balance it against the rear window, I get virtually no reception at all. Even then, I receive repeated static which interrupts the music. When I was out of the LA area in the Nevada desert, the sound was still annoying at best. This product is simply awful. If I could, I would give it zero stars. Fortunately, my car has a cassette deck too, so I bought a $20 cassette adapter from Monster - it works great."
+14240,1,Single biggest disapointment in the last few years,"Makes me long for Daikatana.An incredibly well thought out game engine and hyped concept done completely and totally wrong from the very beginning. This is not Populous et al. This is about micro managing every villager and being frustrated with the interface and lack of ability to change the environment or command your villagers to do anything but have sex, eat and work. The quests are incredibly bad and poorly thought out.The graphics are nice over all but the villagers are done badly. The AI is 'neat' though it can be frustrating at times. You can't blame that on Lionhead. Its easily the best AI on the market right now. But that being said, we've got a long way to go. Still this is heads above the rest in the intelligence department."

+14244,1,basically a waste of money,"Totally boring materials, my 3 kids weren't the least bit interested in any of it and frankly, even though I am learning German too, neither was I. The CD nearly put me to sleep. The picture dictionary is probably the best item included but it's got only a few words. We all read it together a couple of times, which takes only a few minutes. Thankfully, there is much better stuff out there that I've been able to find and they enjoy--live and learn I guess."
+14245,1,Very light comedy,"This is what might be called a ""light romance"" and not a screwball comedy at all. It's about a family of con artists that goes straight after encountering a generous old lady. The casting is poor. (It was nearly Gaynor's last film, for obvious reasons. Richard Carlson is wasted entirely, and Fairbanks is wholly unconvincing.) There are no laughs. Some of the sets are incredibly phony. And in the end the director had to rely on a parade of pups to generate good feelings. In short, this is a time waster, alarmingly out of step with the great comedies being made at the time. It's hard to believe that Selznik could be so clueless."
+14246,2,Bentley Layton's Coptic Grammar,"Brilliant. Truly brilliant. This is the ultimate in grammars, the most readable, the most intelligent and insightful grammar I have ever encountered. It is so good it can be read simply for the joy of it and it is adequate at all levels of study. Bentley Layton has produced an enlightened text."
+14247,1,A Variety of Problems,"The reasons I disliked this book were:1. The book was poorly written (the characters were flat and one dimensional, the plot was taken directly from Revelation with no obvious creativity on the part of the author2. It was anti-Israel and anti-Semitic (Having Israel welcome the Anti-Christ enthusiasticly, and resume animal sacrifices (How believable is that) and having all the Jews either be quick to be ""saved"" and become Christian or gullible fools who flocked the the Anti-Christ3. It was anti-foreigner (having the anti-Christ be Romanian)4. All the characters were flat and stereotypical.Jenkins and LaHaye had the opurtunity to write an interesting and informative series about the end of the world, to inform both Christians and non-Christians about the prophesized Tribulation. They blew this oppurtunity, and choose to fill it with their own beliefs instead."
+14248,2,Bumping!,"Seldom is tight. He comes with bad azz lyrics, a flawless flow, and hard westcoast beats! This is a classic CD that is made to be bumped down the block. I do however disagree w/ that person who says that Seldom is like eminem, Seldom still keeps it street which is something eminem can't do, cause he's not street. Very Far from eachother. Pick this CD up!"

It is easy to assemble the extension poles which let you move further onto roof as necessary. No more climbing onto a slippery, sloped roof!"

+14252,2,Profound and Stylish,"This is (in my humble opinon) Bowie's best album, one that could arguably be said to have triggered the glam rock afficiando that reigned in the 70's and early 80's. Bowie shows his masterful efforts at lyricism and his exuberehent personality whether its his or his significant other(ziggy). The wailing guitars and fast paced drums(along with Bowie's excellent vocals) soundtrack this story of an alien that becomes a rich and famous rockstar only then to die at the end(Rock N' Roll Suicide-excellent title). The stand outs are Five Years, Starman and Rock N' Roll suicide, each song contains sincerly sorrowful yet somehow witty lyrics and great music. Five Years starts off humbly with just Bowie's vocals and some light drums that soon blossoms into an orgasmic peak of vocals, drumming, guitars and keyboards. This entire cd is one of the greatest rock records ever, and definitley the best of the glam rock era."

+14254,1,Limited RAM means limited utility,"As a physician I had hoped to load my in-hospital patient data bases, and a few handy medical reference programs, onto my E2's memory card (512meg);however, I found that none of the programs permit themselves to be loaded onto removable media (for fear of piracy) -- except for the great folks at ePOCRATES, who permit you to download their program to main memory or to memory card -- so the measely 20 usable megs on the E2 are virtually useless to me. Further, despite deleting the aforementiond databases from my E2 and my hard drive, I have yet to accomplish a hot-synch without my E2 crashing -- and requiring soft resets each doggone time...After 4 weeks of dissappointment, I,ve given away my E2 and have just bought (for $60 more)the Palm TX, which has 100 megs of usable memory, and few more bells and whistles such as Wi-Fi and a huge screen, for example"
+14255,2,my amazement,"I was like every other 16 year old that was simply captivated by that song ""hurt"" and wondered where a voice like that could come from. Just until recently I never knew who Timi Yuro was until I was thumbing around in Amazon. I ordered this CD and will be eternally grateful and recommend it wholeheartedly. Thanks Amazon... Jackie"
+14256,1,Awful!,This suit was a horrible experience for my little man. Everything was okay until he started crying after about an hour in the pool holding his arms in the air. The material they used on this thing is not good for baby sensitive skin. He was rubbed raw under both arms and in between his legs. He screemed for a half hour until I could find something that soothed it. I tried everything and babypowder finally did the trick. It was pitiful. Needless to say I took it back. I only picked one star because there wasn't a zero star to pick.
+14257,2,Good Movie,Bought this for my 8 year old niece and she thinks it is great. A little boring for older children.
+14258,1,Avoid at all cost!!!,"I bought a couple of these, and now regret it greatly. In less then a week one of them broke. If I didn't know better I would think that they had been pulled at the way it broke between the link, also the clasp seemed stretched somewhat. In any case, I would avoid it, and find a higher quality necklace someplace else."

+14261,1,can I give less than a star?,"I agree with the other people posting, this is absurd. Warner Brothers is once again trotting out a sub par box set, peppered with DVDs and a useless UltraViolet set (ultravoilet is a slap in the face to people who spend hard earned money to purchase films). Don't buy this, you'll receive it and a few months later they'll offer up something new, with maybe 20 extra minutes of new content and then the merry dance will continue.Shame on your Warner Brothers."

It has been less than two months since I purchased this item and the scrolling feature is not working well ... if at all. When I try to ""scroll down"" in my email accounts and my websites, the scroll bar moves down in small ""jerks"", and the wheel is not much better. Further when I switch users, I must unconnect the USB cable and then reconnect for the mouse to work at all. I am a very frustrated and unhappy ""camper"" with a problem that I am unsure of what to do. I cannot be efficiently productive with a ""misbehaving"" mouse. Someone have a suggestion? I do not want to be replacing my mouse everytime I turn around. This is the third one in a year's time."

+14264,2,"This was a really good book , and was very interesting !","This book was a wonderful story, which was very similar to real life. I liked the romance in the story, and how there was a little sadness in the book as well. This book was also definately worth reading even though it was long. The text in the story was extremely descriptive and the whole plot of the story is definately #1 for a lot of the books that I have read. It was a book that was hard to put down, with all the struggles and problems the characters overcame in it. I advise mostly everyone to read this book, because it is pretty easy to read, and you seem too be done not long after you have started! By, SLG & JDG"
+14265,1,"Fans of Lovecraft LIKE revulsion, right?","I just finished it, and feel relief. I hate to leave things unfinished, especially when I've given them so many second chances. It's blue-collar doesn't match the money from the sky, or the shadow out of time.This book was recommended by my beloved paperback eating machine of a grandmother, likely because she knows I like creepy stuff, not because I'm well-read.The content is fun enough, for an 80s story that wants us to believe it's a 90s story, but the style begs so desperately for the 'clever yet not pretentious' badge that it ends up less than pretentious, merely pedestrian.Two stars instead of one because it wasn't bad for its ilk, two instead of three because it wan't as good as it thought it was."
+14266,1,Do not convert your 2003 data to 2004,"I have used Quicken for 10 years, and succesfully upgraded every year. I didn't even have a problem switching platforms from Mac to Windows. I just upgraded and converted my data files to Quicken 2004. The program is completley buggy to the point of me not even being able to open it.I bought Money 2004 in an attempt to vote with my dollars, I returned Quicken and bought Money 2004 to no aviail. My automatic backup had copied over my 2003 backup with the 2004 files. Money 2004 cannot import files from Quicen 2004.Intuit can provide me with no further technical assitance, and I am stuck with software that crashes when I open it, at least until they release a patch."
+14267,2,Great Lady Soul in the Seventies,"This compilation includes Aretha's hits of the early to mid 1970s. The variety of styles within the soul genre is impressive, from the exotic Spanish Harlem (a 1971 top 3 hit) with its powerful vocals and impressive Spanish guitar through the minimalist Rock Steady to the beautiful balladry of Bridge Over Troubled Water, still the definitive soul treatment of Simon & Garfunkel's classic.My other favourites include the emotional Don't Play That Song and the brooding You're All I Need To Get By, a huge hit in 1971. The CD also contains extra tracks, of which the best is Aretha's great version of Elton John and Bernie Taupin's Border Song.Some fans might disagree, preferring her late 1960s gems, but I have always loved Aretha's early 70s output. Nothing beats the exuberance of a song like Spanish Harlem or the restrained intensity of her version of Bridge Over Troubled Water. This is prime soul from Lady Soul's most interesting career phase."
+14268,1,Meh,"Trite and boring. This movie should have and could have been very interesting. The dialogue was extremely contrived and the screenplay was very poorly executed. Having such a profound concept on which to base this film, I feel that the writers fell short on almost all fronts. This movie ended where it began, taking the audience nowhere."
+14269,2,A New Light,"I had a maglite for over 10 years. It was always reliable and the light never did fade. So I was going to stick with the same brand for another flashlight. I replaced mine because I wanted the LED upgrade. The LED maglites seem hard to get in stores if their not sold out. I tried 3 different stores and couldn't get them, as a result I went to ordering it. I bought some smaller plastic LED ones which were great, but I needed a main bigger heavy duty LED too.The LED light of this new one really does make a difference. You can rotate the head of the maglites to focus the beam from small to large. I tested them both out side by side at night, and they both have the same circle of light size. The difference is that I could see alot more detail with things in the house with the LED maglite at night than just the regular maglite. The white beam of the LED does make things alot clearer too with the intensity."
+14270,1,Sorry I bought it,"I agree with the other reviewer who said, ""This book takes one chapter and stretched it into a whole book. It's drawn out. Boring to read and seems to reitirate stuff over and over again..."" Illustrations of the points being made are necessary."
+14271,2,Good nailer,"I just finished up a box and a half of 8D and 16D nails and the gun worked perfectly. No jams or misfires when I switched back and forth between nail lengths for 2x treated lumber and 1.25"" hemlock siding.I'll give it a five star rating but they really need to provide a rafter hook for convenience."
+14272,2,"Perfect stroller, well worth the price!",We love this stroller! We had originally purchased one of the large strollers that the car seat snaps into. My son grew out of his car seat so the large heavy stroller was a pain to lug around. We purchased this one knowing that we have a flight booked in the near future and figured we would just use this for the trip. Since we recieved this stroller I have kept it in the back of my car and we have used it over and over. It is so light weight I can pick it up with one hand while holding my son in the other. It is worth way more than we paid. Delivery was faster than expected as well. We purchased the orange color and I have to say the Color is great as well!
+14273,2,100% Adorable,This costume is too cute on my 2 year old. I can't describe how perfect it is. Seems to be of very good quality and is just like the picture. Got here in lightning speed time too! Highly recommended.
+14274,2,A Forgotten Master,"Henry Kuttner was a master of thoughtful, humorous and bitter scifi. He was so prolific that he used at least 5 pen names, including Lewis Padgett. My all time favorite story is ""Mimsy Were The Borogroves"". If that story doesn't give you shudders, then you are no longer alive. His stuff was well written, well plotted and wonderfully presented. If you have never read Kuttner, I envy you. Reading him for the first time is an amazing experience. Please get this book, in whatever form you can."
+14275,1,Tintin in America,"I am a big fan of the Tintin series. But in my mind, this is one of the worst. The drawing is not as good as some of the other books, and the storyline isn't as good. I found that in this book, Tintin narrowly escapes death and gets out of tough situations a few times too many."
+14276,2,Works great for me.,"I've been using these for 5 years. The pole that came with the first package was badly designed. The extensions would not lock. I had to use duck tape. But I have since bought a nice painters pole. The threads are the same as those used for paint rollers. I would only give the package with the pole 2 stars, but the clips are better then the pole.It took a few tries to figure out how to use them best. The tricky part was to not thread the clips more than 1 or 1-1/2 turns onto the pole. You need only a little thread. If you thread them all the way down, you have to turn the pole many times to remove them, also you my twist the clip off the gutter when you start turning if the clip is screwed all the way down on the pole tip.They would not fit all gutters, but they work well on mine. I have managed to use the gutter part of the clip on a fence, never used the shingle end."
+14277,1,who authorized this??,"Where do I begin ...First the video sucks. Very grainy in some clips. The riders are very good, but its to a deaf ear due to the management. Basically its a home video that does not give the sport its dues. Overall ... it goes to the grill. I'm gunna burn it :("
+14278,2,excellent machine,I have been making espresso at home for over 20 years. I have had many different types of machine. This machine makes perfect espresso and perfectly steamed milk. It is as good as any machine for sale and certainly the best one for the money. No need to look any further.
+14279,1,Two Months Later...,"I was thrilled to be able to find these little decorations for my bettas... now I can see why they were on sale.As I clean the tank weekly, more and more of the paint has come off. At first the spots of missing paint were so small I didn't notice, but now if you just run water over them, large flakes peel off.Obviously, these are marked for quick sale, but buyer beware.. they won't last. Even at .99 they aren't worth the price."
+14280,1,not a bra its a hood cover and its over priced,the picture lies its not a full bra its a small hood protector and it cost more then a full bra BAD BAD CHOICE
+14281,1,First Album was better..,"Beastie or no Beastie Boys, I was dissapointed when played Vallejo's new album. As compared to their fantastic debut, this album just fails to rock. I can appreciate the approach back to latin roots, but I though this band rocked harder. Totally uninspired. It sounds like DJ Hurricane took the storm out of a firery latino rock band. I still wish to see if they still rock live. I also can't understand why AJ and Alex are posed on the cover the way they are.."
+14282,2,Terribly real,"I read this book in one weekend. It was impossible to put down, and though it brought back some awful memories, I was glad to have read it. Sebold writes very openly about aftermath of her rape and the ripple effect it can have not only on the victim, but the people around her."
+14283,2,Rangers Apprentice,"This novel is a magnificent set up for the series ""Rangers Apprentice."" This book is a medieval book that'll keep your heart racing. The author makes it easy to connect to the fun characters and wish you could live in this time period. If you hate boring books read this energy filled hardback. I recommend this book to all action lovers who might've also read Harry Potter, Alex Rider, and the Maze Runner. This appealing and original story starts with a orphan boy in a kingdom. Until its apprentice day. The boy, Will, doesn't get accepted to any apprenticeships. But then the man comes out of the wall. This leads on to many adventures for the small boy against the evil forces against Araluen's enemy-Morgorath."
+14284,2,"Smith, a force to be reckoned with","This movie is awesome. I never read the book, I heard it doesn't follow the book too closely but who cared its a sick movie either way. Will Smith at just about his best. Man has this guy come a long way from the Fresh Prince, not to mention Willenium. He is an awesome actor, does a great job in this movie and the movie is filled with excitement. Lots of shock value and unexpected. Loved it. Only regret is that the movie ends a little quick, for such a big budget film it does not follow the recent trend of epic movie means epic length film. In this case the movie would be better a little bit longer but either way I loved it. Hope you do too."
+14285,2,Heart breaking and charming,"I had read this before, and realized I couldn't find my copy to loan to a friend, bought it and had to re-read it...with the same tears and joys. I lived in Austin for a time and this is MUCH reading for anyone who has ever lived there, OR owned a dog (or rather shared there life with a dog).A wonderful beautiful book."
+14286,1,Lacking in varity,Stanfield is no Walker. This book does offer many attractive designs but the variety was lacking. She seems taken with cables and lace. Many of the designs obviously stemmed from the same ideas. I found the charts hard to follow and was frustrated in my attempts to reproduce her designs. Give me the classic Treasury of Knitting Books over this anyday.
+14287,2,Good battery/value,"I skeptically bought these a year ago because they were inexpensive compared to the major brands. Well, 12 months later they are still going strong in a pair of wireless speakers that get a fair amount of use. I'm buying another package."
+14288,2,"Well... love it or hate, it's better than the others.","I found this book to be much better than the other available UltraDev books. As another reviewer said, however, there is just too much to cover, and, if done in a way that is all inclusive, it gets to be too much.I'd like to see UltraDev support PHP, and a book similar to this one be written about PHP/MySQL and UltraDev, but, for now, this will do.If you find this book too easy or too hard, just look at the rest of the available titles - ugh."
+14289,2,Food for thought,"After reading this fine book, I am still mulling over the actions of the author. She was offered the world on a platter, and chose to reject love and make her own way in life. She would be a most interesting person to met and conversed with. After reading a biography about Mile Franklin, I believe she did the right thing.A beautiful read.The book still haunts me several days after reading. Assuming the story is more fact than fiction, I propose a motive for the author's actions.The book may have been the 19 century coming out story, which went over peoples heads at the time, and even now. I believe the author was attracted to women. She mentioned several times how she detested the touch of a man, and turned down a marriage proposal that would be most woman's dream. She often lamented on how different she was from other girls. She never married.I suspect the book was written a 100 years before its time, about a subject that was simply taboo.Durgan."
+14290,2,"Great quality, performance and price!","Why buy another brand? Great quality, performance and price...your wine will endure...with lasting value...easy to clean, use...what's not to love?"
+14291,2,A better RC than most,"My 4 yr old grandson had played with the same RC and always loved it. I bought it for him to use in ""puddles"" but we have not taken it outside to puddles since it states it must be dried after use...not so easy for a 4 yr old! It is ""tougher"" than other RCs than I have bought."
+14292,2,Must for Marx Brothers fans,"Shipping was prompt, actually ahead of schedule. As for the product, well, for my money this collection is a must have, video quirks notwithstanding. These are classics and should be a part of any serious video collection."
+14293,1,Dumbest Product EVAAAR!,"Title says it all. I shouldn't have to go to the hardware store to buy something to MAKE this product work. It should work OUT OF THE BOX. Who the hell has 4"" wide doors?"
+14294,1,DEFECTIVE,PRODUCT DEFECTIVE IN THAT IT DID NOT PLAY ANY CD WITHOUT A SCRATCHING NOISE RIGHT FROM FIRST DISC PLAYED. THIS ITEM RETURNED IMMEDIATELY.
+14295,2,Added 3.5 inches to my arms in just 6 weeks,"To be the best, recovery from training is a must. In addition to replacing high-energy compounds such as creatine phosphate, ATP and glycogen, CELLMASS replaces electrolytes, all of which increases one's resistance to fatigue and overall work capacity. That is why it is said, ""The CELLMASS you take today, is the CELLMASS you feel tomorrow.""I have consistently taken this product for 30+ years. This product is great, 5 stars."
+14296,1,Two small,"What is the old saying, you get what you pay for. This bracelet is too small and cheap looking. This is good for a little girl about six or seven years old."
+14297,1,OK BUT NOT TO HIS POTENTIAL,"I think that this album was ok but if you look at all his other music including belly soundtrack and his first two albumz this was nuthin the beats were wack compared to everything else and the lyrics were ok but not good enough if you really want a good X album go for ""ITS DARK HELL IS HOT or ""FLESH OF MY FLESH BLOOD OF MY BLOOD"" those are very good i got em both"

+14299,2,A word of caution,"This machine is a few years old and adequate for a base model printer that retailed under $100. The fact that some merchants are selling it for well over triple the original cost--and a printer that is no longer even current--is unconscionable. Neither this base model, nor any of the new models with their myriad bells and whistles, even come close to the prices being asked here. Unscrupulous selling should be monitored here."
+14300,1,"Good movie, not so good book",They made a movie out of this book and I thought it was pretty good. But I was really disappointed in the book. Just too slow to keep my interest. I never finished reading it.
+14301,2,DA BOMB!!!!,Wow! This thing ROCKS! The only thing that would make it better is if it was self cleaning. I love it.

+14303,2,Exactly what he wanted,"Ordered this watch for my boyfriend. He loves it and it was much cheaper on amazon than purchasing it in a retail store. The color is not as dark as I thought it would be, but otherwise, we're both happy. The shipping was fast and the watch is great."
+14304,1,Disappointing,"After reading Ferrol Sams previous book, I was anxious to read this one. It was really a disappointment, for me anyway. I had so enjoyed the way he wrote in different voices previously, and although there was a bit of it here it was forced and not nearly as good. And then, I'm not crazy about war stuff, so I guess you'd have to factor that in. Overall -- not up to the writing quality I'd expected."
+14305,2,Farm out!!!!,"Very well put together CD, I especially like Merle Haggard. I'll play it often!!! One thing nice is I don't think you can wear a CD out!!!!!!"
+14306,2,Love it! Thanks,We love this sweet little black kitty which reminds us of our black kitty who has gone to heaven.We received it right away and in good condition.Thank you!
+14307,1,Blows more than it Sucks!!,"We got this vacuum about 3 Months ago, and we are already looking for a replacement. My wife is pregnant so I do all the vacuuming. This vacuum picks up alot and I have never noticed it lose suction, but it seems like it always leaves a thin layer of dust on everything after I am done. My wife noticed it blowing dust out of the bottom exhaust by the handle and thats when we put it together. We always notice more dust in our house right after we vaccum. Another not so bright spot is the fact that the exhaust is right by the lifting handle, so if you use it to vacuum the stairs you almost always burn your hand while using the handle to hold it. I probably won't buy another hoover. Vacuums are a ""you get what you pay for"" item."
+14308,1,Not exactly,This item was advertized as not new but had mroe writing in it that rendered it not usable for the purpose for which I had purchased it. The material presented in it is great and useful but this book could not be used by a student as intended.
+14309,2,Works great except for one thing,"We got one of these to monitor the temperature and humidity in our basement, to make sure our wine isn't suffering. It works fine, except for one thing: due to an apparent firmware bug, we're unable to set thresholds for high and low temperature and humidity alarms. Despite what the manual says, your only options for high/low temperature/humidity alarms are ""disabled"" or a single setting... you don't get to choose your own alarm thresholds.It's still usable, but we have to check the maximum/minimum temperatures and humidity by eye, since we can't rely on the alarms to notify us if either goes out of bounds."
+14310,2,Atlantis- Animated Feature,"This animated movie deserves more credit than what it has apparently received. Yes, at times the story could be fairly cheesy, but I really appreciated the way the scenes were visually composed and the overall visual imapact that was acheived. I feel that from this standpoint it was truly magnificent. Also, I appreciated the efforts that went into the linguistics aspects of the Atlantian language that is spoken throughout. The linguistic substance really added so much to the movie and gave richness to the experience of watching it.For those who appreciate the visual art that goes into animated features and how an expansive imaginary world rendered well can draw in and welcome the viewer to the story, this movie can be appreciated on multiple levels."
+14311,1,Returned,"I returned this item because it had a piece of masking tape holding the double sided tape in place. From the vendor! The product appeared flimsy as well and was too long for my particular application. Do yourself a favor and spend the extra bucks for a good one.Auto Ventshade 77003 Windflector 35.5"" Sunroof Wind Deflector"
+14312,1,Not worthwhile,"My daughter and I just finished using her Alex Pottery Wheel. I would not recommend this craft toy. First of all I think it would be impossible for a child to use without assistance. Second, the clay does not stay centered on the wheel and as a result it is impossible to make an even object. The shaping tools are useless. My daughter did not have any fun as she found it very frustrating and needed me to help a lot. If you are thinking Demi Moore in Ghost when you look at this toy - think again! It's frustration level is rivaled only by the Sticker Factory."
+14313,2,Support for personal & spiritual growth,"This book provides both perspectives and methods for ""growing whole"" in a world full of crises and challenge. I appreciate the author's perspectives on how ""work on oneself"" helps contribute to the world; so often personal work and social action are seen as separate and even conflicting. The exercises found throughout are easy to do on one's own, or with others in a group.I also recommend the accompanying audiotape/journal called ""Growing Whole: Exploring the Wilderness Within."""
+14314,1,Handle lost grip easy,"Although the 2 section is good as it allows to fix a small towable, the handle lost the grip easy.After 3 rounds I had to glue the grip again, and every 3 days I had to do it again. The grip is glued on the wrong side, having the seam toward the dragging line, here when the rope and handle is in the water being towed by the boat, the water rips the grip out of the handle.The color received is not the one n the pictures (I got a black and white one)."
+14315,1,Dull,"Musically unimaginative & overwrought. I bought this CD based on an Amazon recommendation -- If you like NIN, then you'll like Skinny Puppy. Wrong."
+14316,2,HYSTERICAL,"I loved the pictures and the story line! I have four other Revenge of Lum books on hold for me (I didn't bring much money the day I got this book, so I ended up getting whichever graphic novel was thickest!) It was GREAT. A really fantastic book with captivating plots. I felt, however, that the Ninja chapters ended up slightly...unfinished. Oh well! Does anyone know what order this series goes in? Does it even have an order?"
+14317,2,GREAT!!!,Fast shipping! Great product! Thanks so much! Would buy from again! The case and everything with this game was in great condition! Thanks again!
+14318,2,Intriguing,"This was my first Clive Cussler book. I didn't realize that I was jumping into the 15th or 16th book in the series. I can't wait to go back and read the previous ones. This book combines ancient history and adventure, as well as politics and the military, in an effort to provide a first-rate novel. The character development that went into this book and the series is phenomenal and is second only to the creative storyline that keeps you guessing until the end. If you like me are a fan of paperback novels packed with action and adventure this series is for you."
+14319,2,We love this,My baby loves this mat. She will look at the toys and musical lights for a long time...which lets me do things!!!
+14320,1,Underwhelming,"I don't know if this is a case of the Emperor's New Clothes, but I was expecting a lot more from the reviews here. I am a time travel fan, and can't understand how anyone can rank this above Replay, Time and Again, Up the Line, Time Traveler's Wife or 11/22/63, to name a few. Perhaps I am being tough on Heinlein, but his 1950s view of both 1970 and 2000 were further off than i would have imagined. High expectations hurt my read as much as the mediocre execution."
+14321,1,This is so unneccessary...,"Does this game really need a strategy guide? There is virtually NO single player game (only good for learning the maps and weapons). This is an online game which means nothing is static about it. Every game will be different based on the skills of the other players. Sure the guide will point out key sniping and camping positions, but you know what, most seasoned CS players already know the best sniping spots and they also HATE campers!!! You want a challenge, send me an invite. Gamertag=bukster"
+14322,2,A hair raising experience,"Tommyknockers was truly (and still is) an interesting horror for me. I like the way Stephen King took each character and described what was happening with them. I felt like I was there. As a matter of fact, I started reading this book in 1994 or 95 and I still have a good 150-200 pages to read....not that's its slow to read because its a very good book, it just plain scared me and I put it down and haven't picked it back up....I plan to do so soon ~ keep them coming stephen!"

+14324,1,Not near as good as the 6 X 8 in. size,These are at best OK they dry out super fast! You can barely get your hands wiped before the wipe has totally dried out.
+14325,2,Old Favorite,"The original ""A Very Special Christmas"". I remember buying the LP when it first came out and loved it so much that I decided to get the CD recently. Still a classic. Great Album."
+14326,2,Best CD purchase I've made in a long time!,"I love her style. The best description I can give is that it's a nice mix of the 70's to today's style of music, a little jazz, funk, pop infusion. It just reminds me of the music my parents listened to when I was younger with a nice twist of today's style. It's very soothing and uplifting at the same time."
+14327,2,Perfect for 10lb Min Pin,"I purchased a set of these steps several years ago, and they've held up great. I just got another set and use them for my bed and sofa. They're the perfect height for my use, and Nefertiti (10lb Min Pin) uses them all the time. It took her a bit getting used to them, but now it's like second nature. They are made of plastic, but plenty sturdy enough for a much heavier dog than mine. I'd definitely recommend these to anyone - you can't beat the price and they're quality (the first set I bought is about 5 or 6 years old now and still like new)."
+14328,1,Where Is Domani?,I gave this a rating of 1 not because Julius larosa is not a master of voice but because I cant believe they would leave Domani his biggest hit off of this collection.
+14329,1,Drys out,"When I purchased this product, I was so excited because I thought it would be great for my daughter. But after setting it up, and filling the dispenser with water, I came back in a couple of hours and the water was already empty. I figured it may have just been that I did something wrong. So I reread the directions and found I hadn't made any mistakes. I tried a couple more times but came back and each time the water would aready have been used up and one time I left it over night and went to change my daughter in the morning and the wipes were completly brown and dry. I'm not sure if my product was defective."
+14330,2,Great Read,A must read for all people starting on a bread making mission. Very informative and easy read. Great to see examples of bakeries around the US.
+14331,2,Exposes the Chomsky Propaganda Model in Action,"I hand this book out to friends an acquaintances on a regular basis, most not really knowing the actual state of journalism in this country. Most end up appalled. The few that aren't are only looking at this through ideological blinders and insist this is yet just another example of liberal bias in the press. Read Dean Baker's blog called Beat The Press at CEPR dot net for a daily dose of the media distortions of economic information. It is amazing. How does a democracy survive when so much information is hidden and perverted?"
+14332,1,Not what was pictured,"I received this item in the mail today. Strangly enough, it was not what was pictured. The item I received was ""Made in Mexico"" and titled AlphaFry.I feel it is very important to purchase USA made items and thought this was kind of tricky.I don't appreciate the false advertisement."
+14333,1,Very poor quality,"Yeah it came really fast but here's the big problem,the quality of this product is way too cheap.when my dughter tried to fit this on her,it wouldn't even fit on her arms and it ripped off right away,I was so disappointed.Don't ever try to order this,waste of time and money."
+14334,1,Less than 1?,"I agree with the majority of the other 2,600 comments (I did not read all of them) that this is a rip off. Ever since I first heard that they were going to be releasing LOTR on Blu-Ray (about 1 year now) I have that it was ridiculous that they planned on releasing the theatrical version first and then holding out for the extended. I am a huge fan of the series, both movie & book, and could quote the movie to you in my sleep, I own several editions of this already and while I am eager to own it in high def-I refuse to purchase this. It is nothing but a gimmick and I am disappointed that they are repeating themselves."
+14335,2,Great Album,I've heard Mark Schultz's work for several years and I'm extremely impressed with his debut release. I highly recommend this album for anyone who loves music.
+14336,2,"excellent, very good locking watch","Very nice watch, very beuatifull and extremely good locking, really an eye catcher, but this watch is a quartz chronograph watch and it's don't cont tenth of seconds, and the second hand don't walk exactly over the little second mark lines. After all at this price it's very recommended product."
+14337,1,most horrible movie ever,"ok. im dead serious when i say this... this is the worst movie ive ever seen. ever. no exageratation. this one is right at the bottom of the list resting just underneith darkness falls and jeepers creepers. its sooooo cheesy. i mean... seriously... its got a nice setup... your asking yourself ""does this child even exist?"" etc... it wouldve been a nice psychologocal thriller... but instead? they go for the cheesiest possible ending ive ever seen. ill spare details in case anybody cares about spoilers etc... but honestly... this movie is not worth a glance at the cover let alone a rental or purchase."
+14338,2,"I like it, I love it, I want some more of it...","I love this collection. I love the show and this collection brings us back to where it all started, and it's fun tring to figure out what is in House's head....not that anyone really can but it's interesting to see that even though he hates people, he still has enough of a heart to do what he does to save each of his patients. I think he's just a big teddy bear....lol"
+14339,1,Cute but motor never worked,"I purchased this toy rottweiler last Christmas as a gift for a friend to his a rottweiler fanatic -- unfortunately right out of the box the motor was broken and so the breathing motion never worked correctly -- or at all. Nonetheless, she likes the puppy."
+14340,2,Death/Doom meets Egypt?! Alllright!,"If not for anything else, the last four tracks! Oh yeah! But still the rest of the songs are freakin sweet! If you want something different in the death metal genre, perhaps laced with some Egyptian culture and myths,,,pick this bad the freakin up!"
+14341,2,Detroit Rock!,"The best version of ""House Of The Rising Sun"" ever recorded. ""Music For The People"" and ""Heartbreak Hotel"", previously only available on 45's are included as bonus tracks and make this CD even better!"
+14342,1,oily and rich,"These cookies are very rich, oily and smell so strong that you can smell them through a ziplock bag. We won't buy these again. They didn't taste very good."
+14343,1,Sent me an OLD EDITION,I searched for this text book using ISBN that the school gave me. I realized once I go to class that this was 2 editions old!!! It would have been nice to know that it was an out of date edition.
+14344,1,Disappointing overall,"Good's book is a disappointment. His explanations are often opaque; he manages to make even basic things such as type I/II errors and power seem complicated. The few examples he offers are contrived; there is an almost complete lack of real-world examples. His discussion of software is hopelessly outdated and the code he provides is confined to very simple toy problems that any serious student of his book will have no problems attacking. Items cited in the book are missing in the references, and there is also a fair number of typos. Finally, (my personal pet pief), Good doesn't seem to know the distinction between ""alternative"" and ""alternate"" - he alternates between the two without realizing that one is not an alternative for the other... I highly recommend Rosenbaum's Observational Studies instead (at least for randomization inference); it is beautifully written, rigorous, and offers many real-world examples. Good does not even cite it."
+14345,2,Not for the lighthearted...,"This album is exactly what the title is...elsewhere. Cee-Lo continues his eclectic ways from his Goodie Mob days, while Danger Mouse still is hooked on Fruity Loops. The drum patterns are unorthodox and may be offensive to some pure drummers. Personally, I enjoy the electronic sound this album has. My favorites are Feng Shui and Who Cares?, but Dance is a great way to close the album. It kinda has a 60's groove to it, reminding me of a disco hop (don't worry...you only hear it through a song or two). Those who liked the Grey Album (a Mash up between Jay-Z and the Beatles) should listen to this one."
+14346,2,Video of Dusty! First time on DVD.,"Finally we see 17 of Dusty's television performances in their full run. Previously some clips have been on the Full Circle tape, but now we can see the whole song. A bonus too, there are a few interview clips with Dusty from the late 60's. Praise for Petula Clark and B. J. Thomas who contribute commentary. You will love the performances, and maybe giggle at the clothes, but for a true Dusty fan we will lovingly take every moment on this DVD. We can only hope it sells well, and the owner of Dusty's television shows (yes folks, Dusty had 3 television series in the UK) will release them restored like Pioneer did with Judy Garland. Dusty Springfield was an icon, and if you did not see her television performances, you really need to see this."
+14347,1,Not reccomended,"I received this book for my daughter, thinking you could put the stickers on and remove them to place in the ""book"" elsewhere, but when you do, they rip, not as it says, (with 27 reusable stickers). It's only a one page book. We can't use it now, because the stickers are all ripped, so guess there goes some more money down the tube! I don't reccomend anyone wasting their money on this."
+14348,1,Under pressure?,"DT said they felt under pressure writing Falling into Infinity, and that they almost broke up after that tour. Well, that album still sounded great.What kind of pressure must they be under now, for writing such horrible stuff? The pressure of selling more? The pressure of their brainwashed american minds? Yuck!"
+14349,1,Do Not Order this Book,"I ordered this book three seperate times. All 3 times, the cover said ""File for Divorce in NY."" The first time I opened it, despite the cover, the contents were ""Landlord Tenant Law in NY."" The second time, again the cover was correct but the contents were ""File for Divorce in Pennsylvania."" I called to complain and was promised that they would physically check the book before shipping it to me. Clearly, they lied; the third time the cover was ""NY"" but the contents were again ""PA."" I have no idea if the book is helpful because I've never been able to read it. However, judging by the publishers' clear lack of Quality Assurance, I wouldn't waste my time trying to read this. I've already wasted more than enough time going back and forth with Amazon and going to the PO, etc. to mail this stupid thing back...THREE TIMES. Do yourself a favor and order another book."
+14350,2,Vivid Characterizations Make This a Worthwhile Read,"I always look forward to a new E. Lynn Harris release. I admire his ability as a writer and respect that he remains true to himself by exploring topics that some may consider controversial. He educates while at the same time, entertaining his readers with his uncanny ability to develop interesting characters that come alive on the pages of the book.The topic is sensitive, but one that can no longer be ignored. It's easy to pretend that prejudice within the church no longer exists, but for those who find themselves having to choose between being true to themselves or finding acceptance, the situation is very real. I like that Harris addressed this particular issue.I enjoy the way Mr. Harris weaves characters from his previous books into the storyline. There is a continuum in his body of work that creates an easy flow from book to book. I know there's more to this story, and I look forward to the next installment."
+14351,2,Finally RE-UNEARTHED for the FUNK fans,"If you're willing to shell out 40 bucks, try to find one of the Rhino Handmade copies (numbered edition of only 5000). The Rhino Edition includes the ""Jams From The Heart"" EP material, which is terrific. This album shells 'em too, but the 2006 REISSUE on Collector's Choice won't have the EP material on it. It should be available as of late August 2006. A very worthy set for anyone who collects P-FUNK, 70's post-Hendrix guitar jammage, or guitar fans in general."
+14352,2,Leaks after 2-3 months of use or when the spout is tapped,"We bought these cups and like them very much. But we have found that after 2-3 months of use all of Avent's products leak profusely and need new nipples or spouts. This may be because I have always used them in the microwave and washed in the dishwasher, (don't know). They also have always leaked when the spout is tapped on a surface.Now the good, these are totally interchangeable with Avent's other bottles and lids and nipples! =) This makes them easy to use. They never have molded like some other sippy cups are said to do. However these are the only bottles that we have been dedicated to buying and have a limited point of veiw."
+14353,1,Just Like the Da Vinci Code - History + Fiction,"This book is written 100% from the perspective (and everything is perspective) of Trial Lawyers. Sad what passes for ""history"" these days. Interesting read - even an important read - but the spin in this book creates enough wind to cool a medium sized office building. Read, enjoy, but be smart enough to know that (just like the Da Vinci Code) you are getting a small helping of history, and a very generous serving of pure Grishamesque yarn."
+14354,1,No captions or subtitles for the hearing impaired!,"We were really looking forward to watching this. But, then, we realized that there was no way to get subtitles or captions for my hearing-impaired wife. Finally simply deleted it and wasted my money - no refund from Amazon, of course. I suggest that Amazon specifically list whether a video is for the hearing impaired. We'll not make that mistake again."
+14355,2,"Good, Stable, Burns Decently","I've had this DVD burner for a few weeks now, and have burned about 5 dvd's so far. No problems with the burning, just make sure you download the latest firmware from Sony to resolve any other problems.I thought the tray was kind of flimsy. (Be very careful!)Black bezel replacement goes great with my Dell case."
+14356,2,Entertaining,I found this novel to be entertaining. It's a nice change that John J. Nance doesn't write yet another air disaster but keeps it on the ground instead. Nance is a very skilled writer with a narrative that puts you in the middle of the story. A fast and sometimes emotional story that kept me entertained.Recommended
+14357,2,It works,This wireless adapter is the only one that worked right for my Tivo. I had bought one at Radio Shack of a different brand and it did not work at all. But the TiVo Adapter was easy to plug in and set up. I have been able to watch online movies through netflix and now I don't need to plug in the ethernet cord to the modem/router.
+14358,1,Not all as was....,I am in this book...not all the facts are exactly like it was....and I agree with the person that said there was more information about the families than was necessary.
+14359,2,The important things in life,"This is a simple story in which a girl named Tara finds out what's really important.She starts by believing that what matters is to impress her perfectionist parents by putting on the perfect play on drama night.This thought soon changes when her favourite teacher gets fired due to budget cuts, and Tara realises that saving her teacher's job is more important than all the plays in the world!"
+14360,2,Perfect Father's Day Gift!,My husband love this-and so does the entire family..now we can have our own movie theater wherever we want one!
+14361,2,Tetra Decorative Reptile Filter for Aquariums up to 55 Gallons,"I have been struggling with keeping my turtle water clean. When I first saw this product my main demeanor was that something this nice could work so good. After setting it up in my not so clean turtle water, within about eight hours my water was clear. I am so happy with this product! It was easy to set-up and worth the price, and the turtles love it. They use it also as a basking area."
+14362,1,Horrible Speed Drop,"I bought this router for the Cisco name and for the ""business class"" reputation. When I got it the my broadband speed dropped from 16G to 4. I called tech support and did the normal firmware update, testing, etc. Nothing they did helped. They offered to send me a new one but the RMA's aren't new so beware. They are refurbished ones the tech said. I didn't want someone else's problem so I elected a refund. Stay away from this router"
+14363,2,Definitely in my top 10,"I first saw this movie in the theaters, and it was amazing!! I can't count the number of times I laughed. It's a good family film, even though it's PG-13, but these days, 8 yr olds are watching R movies....Zac Efron is AMAZING in this movie. Definitely better than the HSM movies he did. This movie is definitely in my Top 10 Favorite Movies."
+14364,2,Streak-free floor finally!,I love it! It makes cleaning a breeze. Its gentle cleaner requires no rinsing and leaves no marks or residue behind. The microfiber pad attracts dust and the cotton mop is ultra-absorbent. Easy-glide mop for hassle-free cleaning. Extra light scent almost unnoticeable. Loved it so much just purchased the gallon refill.
+14365,2,Bissell Proheat,"This product works very well! It did a good job cleaning the carpet, and my carpet dried very quick also. I have very light carpeting and pets as well and it looks much better. I vacuumed throughly before the cleaning and the machine pulled tons more pet hair out! I was surprised! The only thing bad I can say is the hose and hand sprayer DO NOT stay put! I had to clip it back onto the holder several times while using the machine. I just took a small bungee cord and tied it with that. Otherwise this is a great machine for removing everyday dirt and minor stains."
+14366,1,Very Disappointing,With all the publicity this book got I thought I would learn something I didn't know. Very little new in this publication and not worth reading or owning. Very disappointed.
+14367,1,Markers Too Light,"These markers are way too light. They show up on dry erase boards bright fluorescent yellow like hi-lighters instead of anything that you can use efficiently for any projects. If you need to create a presentation where the people viewing the information are more than 3 or 4 ft away or at an angle, they cannot see anything. I do not suggest you purchase these markers unless you plan to use them strictly for coloring."
+14368,1,"3 months later, the unit burned out on me!","I'll admit the sound is superb and the speakers have a great bass with kick, but it's only been 3 months, and the control unit burned out on me. I can use my headphones on my soundcard and get sound, but the sound system won't light up when I plug it in, and of course, no sound will come out. Maybe this is simply a statistical fluke, but buyer beware! Now comes the hassle of trying to return/fix/buy a new item--and with online purchasing, you know this is a hassle!"
+14369,2,best,"i love this cat box! it keeps everything covered and smelling fresh with the charcoal filter. however, my only problem with this is that the liner keeps coming out of the one clasp after my cat uses it so i have to continue to adjust it every now and again. overall though, i am highly satisfied with my purchase!"
+14370,2,Plantronics Voyager 510,The 510 has been around for awhile and is heavier and larger than some of the newer models but I find the audio quality on both transmit and receive are excellent. Battery life is also quite good.
+14371,1,Too many inaccuracies,"Although the style of writing was good in this book, there were some glaring innaccuracies. For example, it states that the Lewis and Clark Expedition discovered a water passage to the Pacific. Actually, their greatest disappointment was that they were not able to cross the continent by water because of the mountain ranges they had to cross. Also, York did not pull Clark out of the ravine to save his life during a flash flood. By the time York reached Clark and his party, they were already safely out of the ravine. There were several smaller mistakes that might have been corrected with more research."
+14372,2,Great series,"I really loved this series when it came out and unlike some older tv series it is not dated nor ""lame""."
+14373,1,"I""M AMAZED AT ALL THE 5 STAR REVIEWS","Someone needs to be objective here. I've got about 2000 cd's in mostly the guitar and blues genre and this guy is at best ordinary. Like a TINSLEY ELLIS without most of the chops / absolutely no songs and an average voice.He talks about 40 years of playing the guitar. Hell , this would not be classed good playing for a student with 12 month experience. His tone is painful at times and if you think I'm harsh, have a listen to TINSLEY ELLIS. There are some similarities, but one is excellent and one isn't.I can see that a fully drunk crowd around 2 in the morning will really get down to this, but you have to be kiding when you call this guy a BLUES MASTER. There must be at least a few hundred players with more legit claims to that title.I've got 3 of BRYAN LEE's cds and played them continuously for a couple of weeks as I thought I was missing something as this style of blues is normaly right up my alley ( see my reviews ), but it did not get any better."
+14374,2,Still rockin'!,"Having seen the band three days before the 1977 crash, I wasn't sure if I wanted to hear any ""new"" music from the band without Ronnie, Steve, and Cassie; but I shouldn't have been concerned. This CD rocks with the best of them. Although the lyrics don't seem as genuinely down-home and authentic as ones from earlier years, the music still holds up. From rockers to ballads the band shines. Skynyrd can hold their own with the best of them. If you like the band, you'll enjoy this album. ""Keeping The Faith,"" ""Backstreet Crawler,"" and ""End Of The Road"" are my favorite cuts."
+14375,2,Good buy and solid product ~~,"As with the other struts already reviewed, these live up to Monroe's good name and the price at Amazon is quite fair for the product."
+14376,1,Thank goodness it finally broke!,"After about 2 years of unevenly burned toast this thing died. For the last year the only way to get the toast up was by unplugging the toaster. Since the eject and the ""doneness"" share the same dial, you can't set the toaster to the perfect doneness and leave it at that setting...you have to continually fiddle with it. I would rate this as 1 star, however, I believe that my passionate hatred of this toaster may be clouding my judgement, so therefore I give it 2 stars."
+14377,1,Not for beginners,"As I am pretty inflexible, I thought this might be a good choice as a beginner but, it was not. They used terms that I was unfamiliar with e.g. open your chest and something about your shoulders that I had no idea what they were talking about. Thankfully, it was only $7.99 as I won't be using it."
+14378,2,"It's true, no carving knife included","Like the other reviewers, I was a little disappointed to find that there was no carving knife with this set. However, I was planning on buying the shears anyway, so I was happy about getting them.If you really want the carving knife, there is a carving knife / cutting board deal that's not a bad price on Amazon (on clearance). I'm considering buying it to add to my 7-piece block."
+14379,2,good,"I have been used Amazon twice times, everytime good items thanks a lot.Please this conditions continues. and then good price"
+14380,2,awesome movie,"a sequel worth watching. who would have thought Robert Downey Jr. would be a good detective, but he's at it again, as a quirky Sherlock who knows his stuff."
+14381,1,Have all the toymakers sold their souls too?!,"I agree with most of the reviewers. So, are they going to come out with a FEMA Camp playset so that the young ones will be used to them and when they are sent there (for real) will think it's all just for a play date?! After all of the harmful ingredients and coatings found in or on most major toys lately - most of which are made in China - I think that I'll go to the old work bench in my garage and start making my own. Actually, that would be a great idea for some concerned Americans to do for our kids, who ARE, after all, OUR FUTURE! This country has gone insane!"
+14382,2,Seashell Fun.....,"""Sue walks along the seashore/warmed by the sun./Picking up seashells one by one..."" Author, Marianne Berkes, takes readers on a wondrous seaside adventure in her third picture book, Seashells By The Seashore. Come count the beautiful shells, learn their names, and watch your collection grow on the lefthand border of each two page spread as you walk along the beach..... Ms Berkes lilting, rhyming text is engaging and complemented by Robert Noreika's captivating watercolor illustrations. Together, word and art send you to the beach on a hot summer day, and you'll almost be able to feel the sand between your toes, hear the crash of the waves, and smell the salty sea air. Additional information about each shell and the mollusks that live inside can be found at the end of the book, and young nature detectives, ages 4-8, will revel in this joyous, fun-filled hike along the shore."
+14383,1,Listening to this CD,"...is like looking into the face of God and having him tell you,""You are my most wonderful creation."" Hands down, the crooning mulleteer's masterwork is this album. The way he belts out ""When a Man Loves a Woman"" undoubtedly has Marvin Gaye crying in his grave wondering why he ever attempted this thing called ""singing"". Leave it to the real McCoy there Marvin! And that goes for you too Mr. Green, it's a real shame that people like Michael have to make you look this bad. Michael, if your out there and reading this I want you to know...I can feel your manliness penetrating my every orifice when you sing. People sometimes ask me if I believe in heaven and if I'm going to go there when I die and you know what I tell them? ""The day I put this CD on I realized that I was already there!"" Get hip to the Boltman people!"
+14384,1,worthless piece of junk,"There should be a law against selling worthless junk like this. Yes, the shotgun looks nice but the first few times my son casually used it a piece inside broke and would get lodged behind the trigger. After a while we had to completely take the gun apart to remove the piece. By that time the barrel also broke off and the gun completely quit working. My son had the gun for less than a month. This was a hard lesson to learn. I'll give it one star for it's looks before you use it."
+14385,1,No Thrill,"I've read several of Lisa Jackson's books and couldn't put them down. So, imagine my sheer disappointment when I sat down to read this novel.The main character seemed stupid. There's a deranged man after you, then go for a boat ride with a complete stranger. That's stupid!There wasn't great character development. All the men seem to have the same traits. Therefore, I couldn't really distinguish who the real culprit was in the story.I forced myself to finish this book. I'll certainly continue to read Lisa Jackson's books, but in the future I hope she pours more thought into her stories."
+14386,2,Love This CD!!!!,"I loved Lionel Ritchie and the Commodores. Every cut on the CD brings back memories of some really good times!! If you're a fan, it's a great CD to play when you have some driving to do because you can sing along on every tune. It really makes me appreciate what a great songwriter and arranger Lionel Ritchie is. Very talented guy, and the Seventies would not have been as rich without his music. It represents what I love most about much of the music recorded then. It still sounds good after all this time! Not so sure I could say that about so much of the junk I hear on the radio these days. I'm thinking about buying more copies and giving them to married friends who enjoyed his music back in the day."
+14387,1,Awful Movie,"Very terrible movie. Do not waste your money on this. Picture this: 4 people are stranded with killer vines attacking them. They have fire, and plenty of fuel (alcohol) to burn the vines. Yet, they never do this. Instead, a really inane movie occurs. Horrible actors, just plain awful. Insipid characters who are impossible to care about. Avoid at all costs. Even if someone offers to pay you to see this."
+14388,2,Great for adults and older children-maybe not tots,"I bought this DVD because I thoroughly enjoyed Shrek, and my four year old son loves movies. He'd been asking me to replay The Cat in the Hat over and over, and if you've ever seen that stinker, you know why I was in a hurry to buy a new movie.I love this film. It's witty, original and full of surprises. There just isn't enough action to keep a younger child engaged. Most of the excitement comes from the very mature and well-developed plot, not the animation (which is also outstanding).As far as the PG rating goes, I didn't see anything too inappropriate. I've seen racier jokes on the Disney Channel."
+14389,2,Amazon warehouse is the way to go,"The description said used like new but the product might a well have been brand new. When anyone else claims used like new you're never quite sure but this product was as good as new. The tent itself was great, not for people who have limited mobility though because you have to crawl into it but for young hikers or campers this tent is small, lightweight, and easy to put together. I would definitely recommend this tent and my experience with amazon warehouse."
+14390,2,Inspirational Introduction to Will Durant,"This was my first introduction to Will Durant and it did not dissapoint. It was a very quick and easy read as well as being both a great historical refresher and a great insight into the mind of this legendary figure. The book includes top ten lists of the greatest thinkers, poets, and peaks of human progress among others. Durant's commentary is very insightful and his selection methodology is well reasoned. This has inspired me to read more of his works and texts from his Top 100 Best Books for Education."
+14391,1,Disappointing,"I was drawn by the nostalgia of generations of genuine Gottlieb pinball tables but soon found the physics of the games troubling. The ball has a 'mind of it's own' and many shots are extremely predictable which ruins the fun. Also, 3 of the 5 tables have 'background' music which overwhelm the original game sounds. Graphically the tables look great but the surely Microsoft could do bettter. Nice try Bill but no winner."
+14392,1,CRAZY TAXI RIP OFF,"Its basically the Simpsons version of Crzy Taxi-Hardly different just a plain Rip off,They never used there own game engine just coppies.Buy it if you never plaid Crazy Taxi or even if you never got enough of it.NOT a classic just a Twin clone."
+14393,2,"E, ""You Rock My World""","One cannot fathom how E still puts his mind into songwriting due to the death of his mother and suicide of his sister. But he does, and this is the outcome. Huge hit singles ""Cancer For The Cure"" and ""Last Stop: This Town"" are reason enough to buy this album. The raw energy that dominated the debut might be missing, and the hooks not as immediate, but you won't forget this in a hurry."
+14394,1,Deep River,"I am very disappointed in this program. I have been doing my own graphics/cards for about 10 years. I started with Print Shop (early edition) and progressed thru all the updates. I then switched to PrintMaster and LOVED it!!! Again, I have progressed to each new verion with very little or no problems...until now! This has got to be the worst of the worst--- the program did not want to load without being babied. When it finally loaded, it was very confusing and I found that I needed to get my graphics from the internet! The area I live in only allows me to have dial up---you can imagine how long it takes to get the graphics I want! If you are interested in doing your own graphics/cards, skip this program...go back to PrintMaster Platinum 16 for much better results. As far as I am concerened, the River Deep Company needs to hide this edition in the DEEPEST RIVER they can find!"
+14395,2,vespa scooter handbook,"How to Restore and Maintain Your Vespa Motorscooter (Motorbooks Workshop) (Motorbooks Workshop)written mainly for american market but very informative and detailed,it should be noted that some models such as the T5 were not imported into the USA and are therefore not covered otherwise lots of tips and guides on restoration"
+14396,2,Fun and Entertaining,"A very entertaining program with a good mix of action, humor and good will. At times the writing is corny. This is a show I enjoyed as a kid and now I'm able to share it with my kids who enjoyed it as much as I did. This is good entertaining family programming if you are not overly sensitive to violence. This is an action hero show, so it is packed with gun play, fist fights, car chases and crashes. However, no one is ever killed or seriously injured (all involved in the end run from the scene coughing). Target audience in my opinion boys over the age of eight."
+14397,1,Bland adult contemporary,"I was at someone's home recently and they were playing this album; I could not wait for it to be turned off. The only song on here I can actually stand is Stevie Wonders ""Signed, Sealed, Delivered"", because he is a great artist and that is a classic song. But the rest of it is bland stuff that should be saved for adult contemporary radio. And what is the Cranberries ""Dreams"" doing on here? That song has been used countless times aleready for other films and television, and it's getting very old."
+14398,2,fun and engaging,"Another great little text by Boynton. As usual her witty prose and simple but engaging illustrations are a delight to read and my children always enjoy.One small annoyance, the book shows animals exercising right before bedtime. After reading my children want to do exercise activity and this gets them a little wound up making bed time a bit extra challenging. My solution is to read that book first, then read another more sedate themed book to help the children settle down again."
+14399,2,a little slow,"I started this video exactly 6wks post parting after a c section. It is a decent workout at that point and I'm thankful I had it. But I quickly found it to be a little too slow and not challenging enough. It is hard to find the time to do the whole workout with a newborn. I wish it were a little shorter, more challenging and to the point. I did like some of the exercises so much that I do them on a regular basis when I get a free 5 min and don't have time for the video."
+14400,2,Love it.,I absolutely love this series and all the twists and turns it gives popular fairy tales. Keeps you coming back for more!
+14401,2,Enjoyable Concert,Very enjoyable concert. Viewing DVD is almost as good as seeing the concert live. Recommend purchasing this DVD.
+14402,2,The Widow's Son A Sensistive Reminder of Your Youth,Want to get an insight or just remember your youth then this is a great read. You will remember stuff you probably never remembered before as this exaims you youth thru the eyes of a 12 year old boy. The author is a sensitive and insightful guy who brings the story to life in very unique ways. You feel you must finish this book and will. Short shots and a lively mood brings this story around. You will remember this one.
+14403,2,"I don't know about you, but this is what I want in a book","Such a funny, smart, satisfying novel! I rooted for its heroes, with all their lovable warts and failings, and laughed aloud at the sly social satire that captures a Joyce scholar/pompous ex-husband and a socially ambitious widowed mother in all their meddlesome glory. Delicious, warm and insightful like the best company. I recommend MAIL wherever I go, and delight in finding a friend who hasn't read it so I can wrap one up!"
+14404,2,Excellent Find!,"I just stumbled upon Taylor Smith while browsing the books section in my local wholesale club. I bought two books Jackie Collins and Taylor Smith.Jackie Collins is my favorite author so I had an idea of what to expect. I had never heard of Taylor Smith but the sneak peek of the story on the back cover grabbed my attention quickly. It did not stop for a moment during the entire book.Watching and rooting for Mariah as she searches for the answers as to what really happened in Vienna, was great reading! This book will grab your attention from page 1 and will not let go!This was a deliciouly spellbinding read from start to finish. I highly recommend it!"
+14405,2,Great movie,Just like the other two but all three are great. Kids love it and it is good for the parents too.
+14406,2,Amazing!,"Amazing movie! Jennifer Lawrence is an amazing actress. I would ever get rid of this move. I have watched it 5 times already. If you havent read the books, read them!"
+14407,2,Great apron for the price,"There are better aprons out there but none can beat this price. If you go through them like I do, you can't go wrong with this paron."
+14408,2,Alot of deep bass,This thing is the best thing it has alot of bass and it makes alot of deep bass thats the bass makes everything shake. with its 360 watts you can hear it really far. Now that i put two bazzokas 10 inch my house is breaking apart. Also I just went to ... and none of the stereos there beat mine maybe because i put the bazookas but it is still great. If you like rap it will be the thing that you will love more. It Is The Bomb!!!!
+14409,1,Quality less than expected,"I was disappointed in this product. True, it is advertised as ""lightweight,"" but I was stunned to see how little down it actually holds. Most of the baffle boxes had so little down in them, you could easily see daylight through the comforter when held in the air. On the ""warmth scale"" printed on the package, this one rates 2 out of 7. Wish they'd have added that critical information to the product description."
+14410,2,Awesome Album back to Classic Roots!,"Eye II Eye (1999) was a creative album with the radio hit ""Mysterious"" but still lacked the hardcore rock roots and I think the band was forgotten afterwords. My all time favorite album so far is the Crazy World (1990) ablum which had the major one hit ""Wind of Change"" which was played on MTV a lot. Pure Instinct (1996) was decent album with a few riffs that I liked which kept me loyal to the band. Another note on Eye to Eye II was its minor setback to where I didn't know where the band was headed. Its tracks in the album were trying to be too hip hop or something but lost. I was disapointed on this album where I thought the band was gone. However, I had a gut feeling when I heard about this latest album that I knew that the band resurrected to its old 80's rock riffs, and so far I am happy with its results and my money well spent. I like the new album now and it rocks!"
+14411,2,A Must-Own DVD!,"I took two of my grandchildren to see this in the theater and knew that it would be a must-buy DVD. We laughed our way through every hilarious scenario.It's doubtful that the casting of this well-written script could have been any better: Richard Speight Jr., Stelio Savante, Elijah Rock, Barry Corbin, Audrey Matos, and Irma P. Hall all join forces with great results.Scriptwriter Gray really did a masterful job with this family-friendly flick. Hopefully, Gray will continue to exercise his talent in this scriptwriting arena.BOTTOM LINE: Buy the DVD...and buy extras. They'll make wonderful gifts! Enjoy!"
+14412,2,An entertaining story by Carol Higgins Clark,Ms. Clark is a writer that my wife and I enjoy. This story is well written and was a joy to read. You will enjoy reading it too.
+14413,2,Great reading,"I think the authors did a great job showing corruption in BOTH parties. I believe some of the other reviewers have missed the point. It was painfully clear in the book that Democrats get away with murder--literally, while Republicans that get caught in the act lose their careers. No amount of crime in politics is acceptable, apparently unless you are a Democrat. Great book. Exposes much more than I ever thought possible in politics."
+14414,2,Gravis Gamepad Pro,"Luv this Gamepad for PC, works for Windows 7 but you need to plug it into the USB 3.0/2.0 if you plugged it inUSB 2/1.1 port it won't recognize it LOL don't ask me why? lol maybe gigabyte got it's wiring all screwed up and got everything backwards ... well anyway it works for Win7 (I have the Ultimate Version but don't think that matters)"
+14415,1,Does not work for harmonica,"I bought this to use with amplified harmonica. It does stop some of the feedback, but mutes the tone a lot in the process. I did not like the sound. I sent it back for a refund. My Kinder AntiFeedback Plus is more expensive, but WAY better."
+14416,1,I can't believe the positive reviews,"This book is a slow and painful read. The author is hopelessly self aggrandizing: he says at one point, ""They were going to make me a millionaire."" Wow! A guy at the center of a global conspiracy involving trillions of dollars and they were going to ""make him"" a millionaire. Not give him a million (which would still be paltry considering...).What? were they going to pay him $100,000 per year and after a while that would ""make him"" a millionaire. This guy was a mid-level manager at best. From there he constructs his grand delusion. Only people who already believe the the U.S. is the cause of all evil in this world (college students, professors and incomprehensibly naive adults) could actually think this book represents reality. If in fact we are enslaving the world to us through debt, then we are enslaving ourselves to the Chinese. Think people think."
+14417,2,The Ugly Dachshund,"We have a Weimaraner, and two dachshunds. Well, Brutus, the Great Dane in this movie is halarious, and reminds me so much of our silly Weim! How Brutus thinks he can do everything the dachs do! I had to own this, as it reminds me of our household. I'm so glad it is back out! Anyone who loves dogs will find this very enjoyable!"
+14418,2,It Is the Dream Come Alive!,Once you realize they've attended film school and overlook some initial pretentions I believe you'll simply tumble into the dream with awe and delight. Extraordinary. Few film makers could realize this mood and enchantment. Plus... alittle scary!
+14419,1,Mac Owners Be Careful!,"Why would anyone sell a scanner that is MacIntosh compatible in a package with a digital camera Macs cannot use? That is what happened to me! This Mikrotek camara is useless on my Mac G3 since it's for Windows only! I assumed since the Scanner was Mac compatible then the camera must be too! .... Also the camera is super small (about 4"" by 3"") and there isn't any guidelines with it or directions and specs. Just a tiny slip of paper with about two generic sentences on it telling you things that anyone with common sense already knows. It's made in China and consists of cheap plastic like those throw away cameras from you local drug store you use one time only. The cap for the lens cover falls off constantly and no way to fasten it back on. ...."
+14420,2,This series is great!,"If you love historic fiction, romance, with a little time travel and its complications thrown in, the Outlander series is a must read. Thrill a minute and so well written. You can see it, smell it, taste, feel it right along with Claire and Jamie. I wish I had a Highlander too! These are big books and I haven't been able to put them down! I will have finished the whole series within three months (on An Echo in the Bone now) and can't wait for the next release Fall of 2013."
+14421,2,Love this machine!!~,This bread machine is really great. I love it for mixing my dough & it does a passable job to bake in. I prefer to shape & bake my doughs myself though.
+14422,1,"Trite, trite, trite - HELP!","I struggled through this book - my first Delinsky book. I read it because my book club wanted to read it. I almost didn't make it through the entire book and I wonder what the other book club members will have to say. For me, it was like sitting in front of the TV watching a bad daytime soap opera. I found it to be a waste of time and I was happy that the length of the book was the only real challenge for me. I thought Olivia's character - she sleeps with Simon after only a month of staring at one another from across the lawn - was weak and uninteresting, sappy and whiny. To top it off, she and Simon sleep in the same bed with the 10 year old daughter in the next room and this is considered a great romance!! Pullease. I can't think of a single thing other than perhaps the discussion of how the grape vines ripen that was interesting to me. Yuck. I'm on to The Da Vinci Code - THANK GOD!DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME - READ A GOOD BOOK."
+14423,2,McReynolds Greek/English NT with Concordance,"This is an interlinear with a built in concordance. The New Testament translation is NRSV. There are Strong's numbers over the Greek texts in the interlinear. Handy and thorough, one of my favorite tools."
+14424,1,Felt GRIEF after reading this book,"I bought this book based on the feedback of others on Amazon. I was rather excited to read it once I received the book. Although, this book is written extremely well, I found this book rather uninteresting, slow, and anticlimactic. The author incorporates the letters of Mary Todd Lincoln into the story, which is interesting. To be honest the most interesting character in this book is the dog. This book has a lot of potential. There was just no story-line, no plot. If you want to truly experience a sense of grief, read this book. But I am human and maybe I missed something that others did not."
+14425,1,Quite possibly the worst book I've ever read,"What a terrible waste of paper. After about 100 pages, I kept trying to force myself to read a few more just to finish the book. At 350 pages (of the 500 page book), I quite literally said ""life is too short to waste on this garbage"" and threw the book away."
+14426,1,The PHONE,"I needed to replace an extension, on an existing phone system. I found this item online. I bought it. Paying only $11.00 less than a totally new system. I found this out after my purchase. The phone stays""charging"" all the time, even with a NEW battery. It works, It matches my current system. Due to the price I give it a ""2""."
+14427,2,Leapfrog computer,Was a big hit on Christmas. We now have to limit the time he spends using it. Kids are so smart these days that it does not take much time for them to catch on. Can be a great babysitter when needing to get something done.
+14428,1,"Quality is great, movie is bad","Don't like the story and how the movie was shoot, but the quality was perfect."
+14429,2,The 1st and the best,"To the person from Australia, songs 2 thru 11 were the first full length WASP album released, to hear this would make you throw away anything else you have by WASP as junk. The bonus tracks are good, though ANIMAL is a bit boring these days. It is really too bad every WASP fan does not own this album, though I am looking for an original myself on CD."
+14430,2,Fabian Salas is the Best!,"This DVD is easy to understand and does explain the fundamentals of Argentine Tango. I used this DVD prior to taking a basic Tango class and felt very confident when I got there. Not to mention, that my Tango instructors studied with Fabian Salas in Argentina! Highly recommended!!"
+14431,2,Perfect for us,"This may be a highly personal review, but I found this set to be perfect for my little blond daughter, who has a blond mother and a brunette father. Ideally, we would all be able to purchase dolls individually, but this set at least lets parents avoid questions about where your child's little brother is, or why grandma and grandpa don't live with you."
+14432,1,WARNING: DO NOT CONTAIN EXTENDED EDITIONS,"I wish I could give this NO STARS. How careless I was not to read the reviews of this item. When I saw it had almost 5 stars compared to the 1.6 stars for The Wizard's Collection, I purchased it. When we watched the first movie and got to the scene where Hagrid comes to rescue Harry from the island his uncle and aunt take him too we were wondering where the full scene was. We have it on the DVD we bought years ago, but now have Blu Ray. Then we found other extended scenes were missing. As we only bought the first three movies on DVD years ago, we decided to get the Blu Ray set. How disappointing this set is. And I hear The Wizard's Collection is even worse.For us die hard fans who were so hoping for the extended editions and more, there is a petition on the internet. I think you cannot put a direct link into the review so I will break it up. It is at: [...]"
+14433,1,Short Range,"I used this battery with my Minn Kota 40lb. thrust trolling motor and it lasted for about 1,000 yards. It ran at full speed the first half and then faded to nothing."
+14434,2,Great video's,My grandson and granddaughter love this show and I feel they are one of the best learning video's for young childern.
+14435,2,Other-worldly,"Richard is in some way, shape, or form connected with a divine entity. This music is other-worldly! If you are into soundscapes as an alternative to the everyday ""music"", this album may prove to be priceless. It's not, be advised, a dance album. It's a go-for-a-walk-and-let-the-music-take-over album. This album may freak you out if you listen to it for too long. And I wouldn't fall asleep to it either, you might have nightmares! The songs can best be discibed as emotions put to sounds. Some are peaceful, some are content, some are frightning, etc. Most are relatively quiet though, and slow. Don't judge this album after first listen. Let it sink in. It's powerful."
+14436,2,"This book is excellent, but its pace is to fast.","This books pace is way to fast, and the explantions are to hurried. The author starts on one subject and the quickley proceeds to another with little segway in between. Besides this week point it is an excellent book. It forces the reader to think, really think about what our goverment is hiding from its citizens. What dark forces are behind this project and does it affect us and our freedom in this country. A must have for anyone who wants to learn more and develope his own opinion."
+14437,2,The voyage home is the best,"I liked all three movies but it wasn't until they got to ""The search for Spock"" that they got the editing right on the Star Trek movies. Very intertaining though."
+14438,1,bad quality on this pendant,this is the second black onyx pendant that i have odered. the first one was a beautiful 5 star item. my son misplaced it so we ordered it again because it was such a nice cross. this time it was very poor quality or else just a faulty item. two parts of the black onyx fell off the cross.i would like to have it replaced if possible. patty wade
+14439,1,one use broken,i used the grill for the first time and the grate holder cracked food fell to floor I would not recommend this cheaply made grill made in china
+14440,2,Perfect condidtion 3 week delivery,"The item came in, in perfect condidtion. However I hadn't read about the sellers reviews first. I got what I ordered but when I ordered I always look at where the company is from so I'll have an idea how long it will take for delivery, this company showed California so I didn't make and expedited delivery, it was for me anyway so it didn't matter What I didn't realize at the time was that it would ship from Argentina and would take over 3 weeks to arrive. The company is not coming with the fact that they are shipping from such a distance and time."
+14441,1,On Backorder,"This item, as of today, is still on back order with this vendor. It is NOT in stock as the page says. If you are Prime, you will be disappointed. They have no status on when they will ship. Look elsewhere."
+14442,2,EXCELLENT!!,"I love this film. It shows an unbreakable relationship between 4 young transitioning people. All of them go through things that change their lives, and I just love to see what happens!"
+14443,1,VERY BAD SERVICE,"Do NOT!! Order from this website! I purchased a subscription for Oxygen magazine on Jan. 30, 2006, and I still have not received the first issue. I am very dissapointed, to say the least!!"
+14444,1,No images,The lack of images is disturbing. I cannot follow the book when it refers to figures that are not included in the book. Mind that this is the kindle version.
+14445,1,Miserable -- stopped working completely after 2 weeks,"I was given one of these as a gift. It worked fine for about 2 weeks. Then, it just stopped working completely. I talked to customer service and spent a few hours re-loading drivers, updating software, deleting other (unrelated) software, etc. In the end, they told me to send it in for exchange.I mailed it to them, but they claim it never arrived. (Of course, it wasn't returned to me, so they must have gotten it. And why do they care, anyway? They were just going to throw it away.) That was it -- they just refused to do anything else. They admitted it was probably ""lost in the warehouse."" Some warranty.I'll never buy another product from this miserable company."
+14446,1,"So, So","I think the best title for this book should be ""Making Music With Your Computer BUT Let's Learn about Music Theory and Do The Music in a Later Edition."" This book is more about theory than programming music on your computer. The theory in this book assumes you know how to read music. It does not instruct those without a clue, but I was lucky to have already known how to read music. If you're looking for a book to give you some insight to write commercial music, this isn't the book. If you're looking for ideas on composing for an orchestra, buy it.So, what's good about the book? There are a few chapters on mastering, MIDI, and sound synthesis. They aren't highly detailed, but it will give you a clue to what those topics are about."
+14447,1,DM's critics are now silenced . . . they fell asleep,"I'm amazed that something I find so visceral and intense can be rendered so bland.But I must be fair: Purcell at least has an intimate connection with the death metal scene. And she lets the musicians and fans speak, forging her critique from their experiences.The problem has little to do with her passion for the scene; she infuses the final chapter with an almost palpable desire. Her primary drawback appears to be her training in the number-crunching social sciences. I would love to see her approach to the topic if she were trained in an interdisciplinary field such as American Studies.Perhaps the book will be of some value, however, in explaining to my concerned wife why I dig this music as much as I do, since I've failed to do so convincingly so far."
+14448,1,"horrible, slow cheap plastic, waste of money","We bought this thinking is would be perfect for a town market / farmers market environment.wrong we look like fools once you enter a sale of 4.99 it takes a long time to enter it meanwhile it makes this horrible noise on and on and the customers just look at you. It could take forever to check out someone with mutiple items, its very slow slow slow. Also cash drawers have cheap plastic money holders that break off on first use. the entire register is plastic everything breaks the locking key is a joke. Do not waste money or time on this one its going back to amazon."
+14449,1,Jerry Falwell looks like he fasts on Ben and Jerry's,"I can't help but be fascinated by both the title of this book, as the testimonies within it are wonderful- yet seeing Jerry Falwell's name seems to discredit the whole thing."
+14450,1,Julie of the Wolves,"This book is about a eskimio girl named Julie/Miyax who needs to find out how to live in harsh weather conditions and no food. Thats because she ran away to see her pin-pal, Amy, and to run away from an engegement. By going on what her father said she tryed to comunicate with the wolves. Watching how they cominicate and trying it herself she was able to tell them what she needes, which waz food and a shelter. Later she comes home to her dad and his non-eskimo wife who doesnt live the eskimo ways."
+14451,2,17 and loved to read it one of the best yet,"I enjoyed reading this book it was the best yet I would have say. I normal don't enjoy reading but I started reading this and I could not but it down once, it only took me 3 days to read the 400pg book, keep up the good work i look forward to reading more. It was just interesting to read because it seems so real that all of this does and will happen to many people, also i am glad that Stella got exactly what she wanted."
+14452,1,"Do not buy this game yet, wait until next year.","First and formost, this game is buggy, and has even destroyed some OS when trying to uninstall. I got mine to run and played it for about 10 hours. During this time the game slowed to a halt about 12 times. A patch would resolve this problem, but the game also suffers in gameplay. All the hoot and holler about being the first 3E computer game for D&D; can be forgotten, they butchered the rules. But there is good news, if you look past the bugs and the fact that this is not the game I was looking forward to ( A D&D; 3E game ! ), I think a great RPG might be in there somewhere. But wait until they fix the darn thing!Update: It has been about 3 months since the games release and the big patch (1.3) is not out yet. Wait until next year when (If? ) they get it fixed, it will cost less then ($) by then."
+14453,2,Great quality sound,I bought the Onkyo 315 due to the great quality of sound I got in my recently purchased Onkyo Home Theater and I couldn't be happier. I am becoming a fan. I have found out that Onkyo receivers and amplifiers offer a variety of solutions that compete with most expensive devices. Onkyo is an affordable great quality of sound brand.
+14454,2,Drifting Away,"The drifting music ofLaura (Fox Film Noir)melts us into the portrait of a murdered beauty. We are infatuated. Vincent price walks into the scene and all we see is his usual handsome, tall and most charming presence. Judith Anderson claims your attention as she did in another unforgettable movie ""Rebecca."" Laura is cool and ravishing.After all though, I was subdued by Clifton Web, as the splendidly audacious Waldo Lydecker. His words are choice and sautéed in lemon juice; a wonderful contrast to Laura. I must agree with him, when gum-chewing Detective Lieutenant Mark McPherson has become infatuated with the portrait of Laura, he sneers ""Have you ever dreamed of Laura as you wife, sitting by your side at the policeman's ball or in the bleachers... or listening to the heroic story of how you got a silver shinbone from a battle with a gangster? (pauses) ...I see you have."" Laura's image does not transform into a housewife."
+14455,2,Great Read!,"I was not very knowledgeable about professional wrestling, but I found Living the Gimmick to be interesting, funny and engaging. It is a fun book to read with lots of great detail. You want the main character Michael Harding to succeed. Lots of surprises along the way. Would recommend this book to anyone!"
+14456,1,Misleading title,"This book is painful to read because it's so dumb. Shapiro makes some really poor points in his book. In a section of TV he calls Fox's programing one of the worst. What he doesnt mention is Fox is owned by Rupert Murdoch (there goes liberals corrupting). He also things that sexual classes shouldnt be in college (last time I checked there are also religious studies classes in college)He also calls Brent Bozell a media critic. That's like calling Michael Moore a political commentator.This books leaves an interesting question, ""what did Shapiro watch as a child?"" MTV is bad to him, even Nickelodeon. If Shapiro had his way it'd be 700 Club 24/7."
+14457,1,The monk drowned,"Never before have I read a book for the sole purpose of investigating for any glimmer of hope in terms of writing and character development. Malachy McCourt's autobiography is disappointing in the tale of a self-indulgent young man who grows into a self-indulgent old man. It also reminds one of the need for editting so that adults are not forced to read through page after page of spelling errors, contextual errors and poor grammar. The poor monk drowned in this tale rather than bob to the surface of reinforcement of Irish stereotypes by a man professing to rail against them."
+14458,2,Not the Typical Schlock,"Sure, the dubbing is off but for me it added to the movie. It's a great combination of eery and camp with arguably the most effective soundtrack I've ever heard. Turn out the lights and enjoy!"
+14459,1,A poor interpretation of the books,"This could have been a much better interpretation of the manga. The art in the manga is outstanding, but the TV series' art is lazy and choppy for much of the series (it seems to get a bitter better as the show progresses). The show is also incredibly slow moving. My husband hasn't read the manga and agrees the shows are very slow and the art is sub par. What should take five minutes is drawn out four times that long. I think they tried almost too hard to stick to the books.The voice acting is good and they deliver the lines well.If you like the story, read the manga."
+14460,2,Awesome pan,"Having never owned a cast iron pan before, I loved the fact that this one was pre-seasoned and made in America. Though heavy, it performs well as long as its properly taken care of and used. The two handles offer improved control and usability. Perfect pan for all types of cooking."
+14461,2,Great Collection,"This album shows Grand Funk's diversity. From the early ""Heartbreaker"" with its screaming feedback guitar and constant cymbal crashes, to the very smooth sounding ""Closer to Home"", to the remake of ""Locomotion"" which makes you want to dance or maybe footstomp. Listen to the end of ""Closer to Home"" closely. You can hear Mark singing a wailing song over (or under) the I'm getting closer to my home repeats. It's great. Maybe a remix is in order."
+14462,1,Awful,"I rented this movie from Redbox and the $1.20 I paid was too much. About 20 minutes in my boyfriend and I couldn't take it anymore. Ciara has clearly never acted before and the plot was terrible. Plus, how is the worst singer in the movie the lead--someone explain that one.If you proceed with purchasing this movie, the disappointment is your own fault. You've been warned!"
+14463,2,Fringe was one of a kind,Kudos to those people that wrote these great and exciting episodes and who chose these wonderful actors to play the different and sometimes quirky characters so well that we fell in love with them all. I will miss my Friday nites curled up watching the next adventure...good luck in detoxing from the high of this thrilling show.
+14464,1,This Christmas,This book was the biggest waste of time and money!I found them boring and without any real substance. It probably took the authors about 1 day to write each book.They probably laughed all the way to thier banks.
+14465,1,Poorly constructed Netting,"The pond netting is not very strong. If you lay it on your pond, the sheer weight of the leaves and the ice will tear it down in fall and winter, It may be OK in the summer time preventing birds, deers going to the pond.It is a very light weight material good for protection of plants from the wild life.The merchant delivered the product as promised and refunded fully on receipt of my pond netting returned unused."
+14466,1,Only works with certain DVDs player - which ones? who knows!,"Argh! It doesn't work with my Pioneer DVD player. I was fooled by the high ratings, until I looked at the 1-star ratings after my DVD player kept rejecting the disc. :( The DVD player just keeps spitting the disc back out after a few seconds. I wish the item was more clear about exactly *which* players will work with this item."
+14467,2,It should have been called THE CALL OF DUTY MOVIE,"great movie, havent seen a military movie this good since like never, although some parts do remind me of the call of duty franchise, love the plot, great performance, and it gives you a sense of what military forces do look like in real life !!"
+14468,1,Yet another broken headphone jack.,"After roughly a year of fairly reliable use, I've also fallen prey to the faulty headphone jack. Now i'm wondering what to do with an item that I paid nearly $400 because the limited warranty conveniently ran out eight or nine months ago (""limited"" being somewhat of an understatement). No one should ever have to consider ""fixing"", and possibly further marring something they paid that much money for.A month ago I would've given this item four stars. After coming here and seeing so many people with the exact same problem that Creative continues to neglect, I'm outright angry that I'm not alone."
+14469,2,Nice,"I ordered this for my niece, it arrived quickly, and in great condition. And she loves it. Thanks"
+14470,1,Struck Out Twice,"My son and I bought this item from JC Penney - twice. We returned it both times. Neither one worked. Okay, the blue light came on, but no radio, nothing else. We cranked and cranked and cranked and it didn't help.We were disappointed, and I am now looking for a much, much better weather radio."
+14471,1,save your 5-7 bucks,save your 5 bucks there is only like 10 pieces of gum and to be honest...there is really nothing special about this gum. You can get the same flavored gum in a store for 1$ It tastes EXACTLY like how Altoids would taste if they were in gum form. Its just a minty gum. There's nothing special about it. Sometimes you get a really strong stick that you cant breath and have to spit it out and sometimes you get a lame piece that tastes like minty chalk. I wouldn't recommend it.
+14472,2,Great stories!,I've lived in South Carolina most of my life and never heard many of these stories. I love 'Sunset Lodge' and 'Murder at Cape Romain'! Great accompanying photos and sketches.
+14473,1,Conflict of interests,"I have to agree with the reviewer equityanalyst, this book is garbage. Of course I am not surprised that the book continues to be a good seller since the average investor thinks that he is above average, and with a little guidance will beat the market. Guess what you won't. Technical analysis presupposes momentum in the market, which there isn't. Anybody that still believes technical analysis will make them rich, also believes in the January Effect, Hemline Effect and can even possibly predict bull and bear markets by studying weather patterns. Do yourself a favour don't waste your time or money looking for the investment ""holy grail"", educate yourself on efficient markets and investor psychology, and stop pouring money into this author's undeserving pocket, his interest is merely revenue maximisation, not your wealth creation."
+14474,1,A Painted House,"This book should have been named ""Watching Paint Dry."" I found it very boring. It was astounding that a 7 year old boy could witness so much in a such a brief time span. His narration of it made it very hard to believe that we were seeing this story through his eyes. He was much older in his observations and thoughts than his chronological age would convey. The plot never really pulled together for me. It was a waste of time. I am not a Grisham fan, but gave him another chance because a friend told me this one was ""different."" Maybe a different story line, but the same mediocre writiing style."
+14475,1,SUCKS!!!!!!!!,"Who in God's name gave this clown the rights to remix Yes albums?This drum machine happy moron hasn't a clue on how to artistically enhance these classics.Over the top sampling and overuse of drum machines are akin to some 5 year old finger painting over a Renoir or Picasso with excrement.I bought this thinking that these were remasters and remixes.This is just some jughead with a sampler and no talent.If this is Steve Howe's son,if I were him ,I would get a DNA test,because I can't believe that they're related!"
+14476,1,Creeped me out !,Some of the recipes in this book is good. But as I read through the book I noticed the illustrations of half human half dogs. it CREEPED me out !!
+14477,2,earrings,I like the earrings alot I have worn them a few times. However this morning while putting the earrings on I dropped one on the sink and two stones popped out.
+14478,2,"can anyone say ""MESCALINE"" ...?","yeah this album is really good. i find it rediculous when opinionated beatles fans flame stones recordings. its like comparing apples to oranges... i happen to LOVE both bands for various reasons.anyone who gives their satanic majesties request a serious listening will find that there are all sorts of ""moments"" in this album... where it comes together perfectly to form musical bliss.in my own opinion, its not as good as anything from their 68-72ish stint. that doesnt mean its a bad album, just that its not insanely good...if your a real stones fan, defenantly pick up this album. there are more than a handful of songs that will totally suprise you, in a good way."
+14479,1,0 stars an option?,"If 0 stars were an option that's what this DVD would get. I preordered the DVD when I first heard about it, and was expecting an at least passable effort by the production crew, but it was awful.I won't go in to details, as many, many of the other reviews here will point out the problems. Just know this is the first DVD I threw away after watching..."
+14480,1,Silly and stupid.,This movie was trying to do what Scream 2 did and did not come anywhere near it. A ridiculous script and silly acting kept this from being a great sequel.
+14481,2,One of the Best Games for XBOX,"Being a fan of all the other Doom games I figured that this one wouldn't let me down and I was right. Great graphics, story, weapons and effects. It's hard to turn this game off, it's one of those you want to play continiously. I can't think of any flaws. I recommend getting the official strategy guide so you can find all the weapons, ammo, ect... and so you won't get lost, which is easy to do without it. To make a long story short, buy this game.. get the Collectors edition (which is only $10 more), it's worth it. Doom 2 and Ultimate Doom are some of the bonus features as well as interviews, the making of the game and some other stuff."
+14482,2,Close to perfect,"The smell when first opening the tub is spot on of what you would expect of a classic sandalwood, and it holds true after using. The scent stays very close to the skin, and is not overwhelming. It wears off to just a faint undertone after about 30 minutes. The cream also creates a great lather, and since switching to taylor of old bond i no longer get any irritation as opposed to the art of shaving which left me red and completely dry. My only real complaint is that it is a little soapy still and dries the skin just a little bit more than i feel it should, and keeps it from being a 5 star."
+14483,1,Terrible. Simply terrible.,"This book will get you nowhere. The English-written phonetic pronunciation is inaccurate and inconsistent. At best, this book will allow you to show it to your Chinese counterparts so that they can pronounce what you are trying to say.As an avid language learner, I do not find it hard to accustom myself to new languages and environments. But this book has only set me back in my travels in China.Do NOT buy this book. It fails to address the most important part of the language, which is the discrepancy of tonality that the spoken language has. Basically, you will find yourself not being understood and having to point in the book to what you want to say so that the locals can say it for you, thus defeating the point of a phrase book."
+14484,2,Beautiful!,"Among the thousands of books on Buddhism, what a joy to come across one by a real teacher! Thank you, Ajahn Chah, and thank you translators for this gem."
+14485,2,Finally!!,"It is so nice to finally see a boxed set of this wonderful film and all the extras are great, especially the letters!"
+14486,1,Not worth it,"After putting this MP3 as well as some others on my Xmas list I got it last year for christmas. It seemed like it would be a great buy for the price. I have not been able to use the software, it won't create playlists, eventhough I have a new computer. I tried e-mailing customer service several times and then calling but either didn't get a response or no help. If I could have returned this product and gotten another one I definately would have. The menus are also to complicated unless you've memorized the manual. Save your money and go with something else you'll be a lot happier."
+14487,1,Really bad product! Don't waste your money on this.,"So this is the highest rated for pizza stones? I bought because of the rave reviews and reasonable price. It seemed to work well at first - nich & heavy, seemed good quality and it held up for a few months of regular use - then came the peeling. Yes, there is a coating that peels off and leave little black chips in your food. Of course it is now too late to return. Do yourself a favor and buy something else."
+14488,2,Blow You Away Concert,"I was there, an incredible concert. One might have a tendency not to expect much, with artists 'behavior' on stage getting out of hand on many of these 'get togethers', BUT this gathering was chicken skin moments, especially Mick, Bono and Fergie doing Gimme shelter. You will not go wrong buying this, if you have remote interest in these artists, you will love the job they did."
+14489,1,Don't waste your money,"Kids 'N Pets put out some awesome products. This is not one of those. Whether it's on rugs or carpet, I get better results using the regular Kids 'N Pets than this aerosol atrocity. The can sprays well, but that doesn't mean anything if the solution you are spraying actually get messes out of your carpets. Save your money and buy what works - it's not this product!"
+14490,1,no fun,Controller never connects. The green light just spins around endlessly.Everyone else seems to like this piece of junk but I finally had to send it back!!
+14491,2,Nice product.,"This pan is like any cast Iron it must be seasoned properly or it will stick, however since it has an uneven surface it doesn't stick as bad. However it is harder to clean. The plastic scrapper Lodge sells is a must. Also if you get the sold separate top you must heat it up setting in side the pan and it will cook from both sides. If you use cast Iron this will be no problem it just as good as any thing else Lodge sell, as long as you have a need for a ""grill"" surface. It is unusually heavy even for cast iron."

+14494,2,Nanny state totalitarianism's family tree,"The square mustached smiley face says it all. So does the open quote of Chapter 10 "". . . it is generally thought that National Socialism stands only for brutishness and terror. But this is not true. National Socialism - more broadly, fascism - also stands for an ideal or rather ideals that are persistent today under other banners: the ideal of life as art, the cult of beauty, the fetishism of courage, the dissolution of alienation in ecstatic feelings of community, the repudiation of the intellect, the family of man (under the parenthood of leaders). These ideals are vivid and moving to many people . . . because their content is a romantic ideal to which many continue to be attached and which is expressed in such diverse modes of cultural dissidence and propaganda for new forms of community as the youth/rock culture, primal therapy, anti-psychiatry, Third-World camp-following, and belief in the occult."" Susan Sontag, Fascinating Fascism, p. 358"
+14495,2,Couldn't Stop Reading,"This book is really one of the best I've read in a long time. I got the first installment free, and now hooked so I'm buying the next one. I guess the chores can wait..."
+14496,1,Crashed after 10 months,"The funtionaility on the screen on my iPaq deteriorated over the last month until it would not work at all. A ""clean reset"" as directed by the customer service representative confirmed what I already knew...the unit is no longer working properly. My advice is when you start having trouble with realigning the screen (which I did many times before the final crash of the screen) you call HP to see what can be done. I've abandoned by iPAQ for another option. It was an expensive experiment in having a cell phone and PDA that I won't repeat any time soon."
+14497,1,the product was defective and just watched it for the first time yesterday,extremely scratched could not watch it at all extremely pissed off and angry. I might as well throw out the dvd completely useless
+14498,1,Calphalon Hard-Anodized 12-inch Everyday Pan,"The pan we received does not have ""Commercial Hard-Anodized"" printed on the back as all the other Commercial Calphalon pans that we own and it was made in China. Our other Calphalon pans and skillets are made in the U.S.A. This is not the same quality that we expect in a Calphalon product."
+14499,2,Be the envy of all the geeks in your office,"This case is a little expensive, but worth it. It is Genuine weather-proof leather with nice tongue-in-groove style (no buttons to break).There's space to stick your stylus, and when you open the case, it stays open. This is very important for you airplane Palm users.There is one drawback. The Palm is secured by a piece of Velcro, and it cannot be synched-up when it's in the case. You will need to remove the Palm from the case to sync. I can see this possibly causing the velcro to die quicker than expected.But, all in all, this case is very rich looking and worth the 40 bucks. Plus, it's made in the USA (how rare is that?)"

+14502,2,"Ok, but feels cheap and light","I'm not a table tennis pro but I would say I am an advanced intermediate. Balls feel cheap and light compared to others I have used. They feel fairly hard but one buckled fairly easily when I slightly stepped on it, where I heard some higher quality balls dont... not a big deal but just a comparison. Will be looking to try something else next time."
+14503,2,Wonderful Gift for My Husband,"My husband is a weekend painter so I really wanted him to have a easel that was easy to use, store, and is multi-purpose. I received the package in the time stated by Amazon, the easel was securely packaged and the easel was even nicer than it appeared on Amazon. The wood is wonderful, the fasteners on the drawer and easel are easy to use as his the adjustable heights for the easel. My husband was thrilled and immediately stored his brushes and paints in it for future use. He has since used the easel numerous times and says it is the nicest present he has ever received and cannot get over how easy and practical the easel is.....and I was able to find a nice place on a shelf downstairs for him to access when he is ready to paint (which is most weekends)."
+14504,2,32 foot Ladder,I am extremely happy with this purchase. Not only did I save over one-hundred dollars by purchasing it at Amazon but they also delivered it to my door step for free. It only cost $309 and only took about 2weeks to get it. I tried purchasing this from other big vendors such as HomeDepot & Lowes and they wanted $349 plus $65 to $75 for shipping. Amazon Shipped it to my door step. I am so happy.
+14505,1,Ugh!,"Being a long-time Dean Koontz fan I was very disappointed with the plodding pace of this book. I've always prided myself on never starting a book I didn't finish--regardless of how bad it was. This may be my first. After reading a third of the book (and forcing myself to do even that, skip-reading and skimming much of the time) it has caught dust on my coffeetable for two weeks. Koontz has always been a very poetic writer, using lots of words to convey simple scenes. In the past this never bothered me. This time it did. As always, his golden retriever character is great--much more interesting than the humans.I hope I can pick this book up and finish it. I also hope it is worth the effort."
+14506,2,Best price,"Best price on these, picked up for my leopold rangefinder. They tend to have a longer shelf life than others, so I can store them & always have an extra with me."
+14507,2,Amazing Bass!,"I'd had Yamaha computer speakers for years, and I'd always liked their sound -- sometimes even more than my big stereo speakers. Yamaha speakers seem to have a very ""musical"" quality to them, above the normal frequency response ratings and so forth.Lately, though, I'd been feeling the need for more bass after listening to some pipe organ music and some Drum N Bass music, so I decided to get a system with a subwoofer. The first place I looked was on Amazon, and after searching on Yamaha, I found this 3-piece system. Practically every review was positive, so I decided, what the heck, I'll get these.These speakers arrived two days ago, and I've been listening to all my music over again to hear the bass that I'd been missing all this time. The bass response from the subwoofer is truly earth-shaking -- you really feel it in your stomach if you turn up the volume. Plus, the satellite speakers are as musical sounding as I've come to expect from Yamaha, so I'm really happy."
+14508,1,I would never recommend this book to anyone,"I bought this book at a Salvation army store for 50 cents under the pretense that it was a quality read that had no home. Well, I've learned that you truly get what you pay for!I, literally, had to put the book down at least 10 times before I could summon up the willpower to complete the reading. Not only were the characters 1-dimensional and underdeveloped, but they had no redeeming qualities whatsoever. I found it hard to empathize with such self-righteous, self-indulgent characters. What eventually brought me back to the novel every time were the intense love triangles and sordid entanglement between the main characters. Even then, I was not pulling for any of the characters to succeed, really. I would even go so far as to say that I felt much contempt for many of the characters, including Caroline herself.If you do decide to read this book, prepare to feel nauseated and disappointed."
+14509,1,Just about bought it......,"I was quite impressed with the music selections that accompanied the movie and I was certainly hoping that most, if not all, the songs would be on the soundtrack CD. I was just about to order the CD, but then I read the reviews and I have to quite agree that if the majority of the songs from the movie never made it to the disc, then count me out!! I won't be buying this one.Thanks for the timely reviews."
+14510,1,"New Age, not Cherokee teachings","The teachings outlined in this book, especially those concerning the Pleidians, are New Age teachings, not traditional Cherokee teachings. The author combines New Age, Buddhist, and some Cherokee teachings into a collage approach that does little justice to either the Buddhist or the Cherokee traditions. Much of the historical data the author gives is clearly revisionist and just plain wrong. The material on crystals is clearly a New Age overlay.We often hear about how New Age authors and musicians rip off Indian cultures in order to sell books and music. It seems, in this case, that the opposite has happened: an Indian author is heavily borrowing from New Age ideas to sell her books, thus diluting the traditional teachings for the sake of larger sales."
+14511,2,Great Carving Knife and case,"This is a great knife, it comes with a fork also to help with your cutting. It works great and what I love the best is the case. Use it, clean it and put it away. For the price of it you can't beat it."
+14512,2,Inspiring and effective,"I bought this tape because I was tired of being out of shape. I continue with it because it's easy, fun and incredibly effective. I lost 1 3/4 inches from my waist in 2 weeks. The 20 minutes in the am and pm format works well for me because I know that I can get through 20 minutes. Callan is easy to follow and very inspiring. Oh, to be as flexible as she is! I'm working on it!"
+14513,2,sirius antenna,I needed a replacement for my radio and everyone else wanted a lot for it but Amazon had this one at a good price. Well made.
+14514,1,"reasonable in theory, bad in practice","For plantar fasciitis, strengthening the foot muscles would seem to be a reasonable therapy. But after five days of using this device, my p.f. pain was far worse than it had been previously. The problem was not that I went overboard using the device. I was cautious and followed the directions carefully. And, yes, the pain did decrease to its pre-device level within a week of my stopping."
+14515,1,Beware! This is only a book review of 3 pages.,"It was not clear that this was only a book review so I bought it, desiring to download a photo that is on a certain page so that we could reproduce an organ bench for an Estey reed organ.It did nothing to advance this possibilty. I see a copy of the book is being advertised on Ebay for a price lower than the selection here on Amazon."
+14516,2,Good music...,I bought this CD as a wedding present for my doctor at Christmas time. He loves classical and he really liked my gift.
+14517,2,Hysterical Stooges,"I got this for my kids. My 8-year-old watches it over and over. He loves Curly, even though he doesn't get all his dialogue and dialect humor. The Stooges were just plain funny."
+14518,2,Sebastian,The Flag We Love is about the American flag and people willing to die for their country. My favorite picture is when it shows the Viet Nam wall.It is so patriotic. The illustration is so detailed and realistic. I just enjoyed the book very much.
+14519,1,Warmed over motivation,"I guess the author has some minor good points, but not many. Skim through and put it in the back of your bookshelf."
+14520,2,"Benezit: Must-have for art historians, dealers, collectors","The Benezit is the authority for identifying artists. A multi-volume work listing biographical sketches for thousands of European and American painters and sculpters, this series is virtually required on the shelf of all serious collectors, restorers, art historians, and antiques dealers. The work covers artists through the early decades of the 20th century and frequently includes not only biographical information (birth, death), but also awards and education. The extraordinarily comprehensive nature of the Benezit makes it the Oxford English Dictionary of the art world. A word of warning: the Benezit is written in French, so you must have some basic understanding of the language."
+14521,2,Amazingly spiritual,"I bought this video when a few years ago (not this new edition, but when it came out earlier) after seeing part of the program aired on a Catholic television station. I can't recommend it highly enough. This is a great price too, I payed over $25 plus shipping for a VHS version! My version runs almost two hours long and is great for learning more about the Pope's life."
+14522,2,Good product,I have used Epilady for about 10 years. This one was bought as a gift for my 14 year old granddaughter. I am hoping to spare her many years of distress.
+14523,1,The dies are too fragile,"Less than one month after puchasing this pasta machine all of the pasta dies have broken. The ring nuts cannot hold the dies in place and they break. Maybe it is because I was making semolina pasta, but that should not be the case. This machine has caused me way too much stress at dinner time. Knowing what I know now I would buy fresh pasta at the store."
+14524,2,Great product but,For a Dove hair care product I am pleasantly surprised at how rich and thick the conditioner is. Of course I love the way it smells too. My only complaint is I find it leaves a heavy residue on my hair so in a day or so it appears greasy even though it's not. I've been using this every time I shower but I might limit its use to 1x/week to avoid the residue buildup it seems to create. Otherwise happy and I would buy again
+14525,1,WARNING!,"I purchased this toy for a young cat. One day I heard a commotion and went to investigate. The cat had her head stuck in the bottom curved open slot! She could not extricate her head and panicked. Although I was able to help her, it wasn't easy and was a scary experience. I don't know what would have happened if I hadn't been home. I notified the companhy that there should be a warning on the packaging that this item is not safe for kittens or young cats. I also threw out the toy because I didn't want to give it away and jeopardize another cat. Needless to say,this is not a product I would recommend."
+14526,1,A waste of time,"I read a lot of stories written by Sheri Tepper, all of them ranging from good to excellent, but this one made me sick! Unrealistic, a mixture of all kinds of standard SciFi / Fantasy elements tied together by a story without any highlights soaked with morale... really not a book the world was waiting for! sorry for every tree that has been cut to serve as paper for this ""book"""
+14527,1,Hacking the Xbox,The author tries to give a basic idea of reverse engineering but with gapping holes on code due to fear of prosecution from Microsoft; only a basic idea is given. If one would know the rest of the puzzle then one would not need the book.
+14528,1,Let's just call it an old story...,"I'm not sure if one can compare a fantasy epic to another, but Tad Williams just makes me think of what Tolkien would have done, had he been an American of the late 20th century. And I don't mean this as a positive comment. Technically he is a capable writer, but everything in this saga speaks of utter lack of ideas. A moralistic, black-and-white tale with no inspiration, it seems. Characters are thin as paper."

+14530,1,Soporific,"What's come over our beloved Latin rocker girls? Narcolepsy? First, Andrea Echeverri's draggy latest (eponymous) album, and now this dreary thing from Shakira? Remember when they used to excite us, inspire us, rock our world, with albums like ""Pipa de la Paz"" and ""Pies Descalzos""? Those days are gone, it seems. Don't buy this album unless you are having trouble getting to sleep."
+14531,1,Missed opportunity,"This was an extremely disappointing read. The story has such potential, but the writer is over her head, unskilled in even the most basic rules of sentence and paragraph construction. In addition, she has trouble expressing her point of view (nothing wrong with having one, but her writing reveals deep ambivalence rather than clarity of tone)."
+14532,2,Good Bag,"I really like this bag. It fits my Combi single stroller well without having to remove the wheels. There is plenty of extra room inside it to put in a rain cover or something like that. With where the zipper is located, it is very easy to drop the stroller into it, zip the bag, and gate check it. I also like the padding for the wheels.Only one end is padded, so that leaves the stroller handles vulnerable when being tossed about by airline personnel. I also found that I need to remove the cupholder from the stroller. With the way it hangs off the side, it would be broken very quickly if left on the stroller inside the bag.Overall, pretty happy with it. Easy to use."
+14533,2,"Great diapers, easy on the environment",I was afraid they would look too brown but they are just fine and work great!
+14534,2,Excelente seleccion,"Un libro excelente para leer y aprender como entender y desarrollar el ayuno cuidando tu salud para una mejor relacion con Dios , una manera comprencible de desarrollar una de las mas facinantes formas de comunicarnos con Dios."

+14536,2,A must if you're messy,I recently ran out of card covers so I bought these. They are just as described and fit wonderfully on my 4x6 cards. They are not too big as I've seen with other brands. They fit just right and will keep my recipes clean and dry since I tend to make a mess whenever I cook or bake.
+14537,2,SEXY AND VERY ROMANTIC,"Great story that I couldn't put it down. Susan write it like the way it is from describing sexy scenes to normal everyday language. Funny, romantic and very, very sexy!! Highly recommend it!!!"
+14538,2,great glasses,"I have owned 2 sizes (12 glasses total) for a year and a half and my first break was 2 days ago through my own inattention. I wasn't looking and hit the side of the stainless steel sink. If I had been paying attention this never would have happened. I wash them usually in the dishwasher but also by hand. I've NEVER had water get in between the 2 layers.The glasses look good, dress up ""every day"" uses and I definitely will keep them among my glasses."
+14539,1,er.........,"wats up with the covers? liberty x, billy, atomic kitten? still im sure the rest of the album is ok!"
+14540,2,A very compelling and exciting book!,"This book is superb reading and definitely gives a true account of Jamaican family geneaology, growing up in Jamaica during the 70s and experiencing the political stifes of the 80s.A must read and I'm looking forward to any other books from Ms Thompson."
+14541,2,Concise and interesting,"This is a great introduction to the early church. While it provided an interesting history, the stories of the early church leaders and martyrs also were inspirational. Reading about these early heros renewed my faith in what the Catholic Church is really about. Jesus did matter and is just as relevant today."
+14542,2,Large supply,"When I had minor surgery on my finger, I got tired of having to buy boxes of mixed sizes just to get this type. I now have what I would think will be a lifetime supply!"
+14543,2,Works great. Wrong picture.,"The picturee Amazon has is wrong, the actual unit is smaller and has lights on the front not a LCD display. Google the name and you will see what it looks like.The unit works great and I did notice an imporvement in audio/video quality. I would prefer the lights on the front to not be so bright, but that is the only thing I would change."
+14544,1,Very disappointed,"I purchased this retro bar table, specifically because of its 30"" diameter top. IT'S NOT 30"" round, it's 24"" round. The so called ""formica"" top is painted mdf. The chrome legs don't feel as if the finish will last very long either. The two good things I can say is, despite all of this, it is attractive and the metal ring around the black table top feels like it's made with some quality. This shipped from Hot Products and I can't say enough good things about there outstanding customer service. I only wish the table was as good a quality as they are."
+14545,2,Buy It For the Beach,"I've heard the Barber works performed more convincingly elsewhere, but the Gaelic Symphony of Amy Marcy Cheney Beach (d. 1944) is a real charmer with an exquisitely beautiful and affecting Lento third movement; the symphony could've ended there and I'd have been content. The orchestra sounds somewhat underpowered, but the playing is elegant and the recording is vivid and spacious in the Chandos tradition."
+14546,2,The best and easiest doggie cookbook!!,"This cookbook is EXACTLY what I was looking for. The recipes are easy, economical and quick, and there are recipes for different ailments (constipation, arthritis, anemia). My doggie loves it too. Overall I love this book and will be giving it as a gift often. Thanks so much!"
+14547,1,"Good brand, Not a good product.","After visiting friends with a bubble gun I thought it was a great idea. This brand looked like they are the pros with that kind of thing and not being to expensive I bought it. The package says it creates ""linkz"" of bubbles. There were no such links from ours. The solution leaked into the battery compartment. It was just one little bubble popping the second it came out. I returned it. Definatly not worth the few bucks."
+14548,2,Entertaining and thought-provoking medieval story,"A chance exploration of a streetside shrine in Rome leads journalist Stanford to pursue the story of a female pope. Stanford makes an intriguing case for the historical truth of what has long been seen as cautionary tale emphasizing the corruptibility of women. I'm not convinced by his arguments for a true historical Pope Joan, but he's presented a lot of research and historical fact in an amusingly painless read. Imagine Peter Mayle leaving Provence to turn historical detective and you've got a feel for this book!"
+14549,2,Awsome Set,Saw this show live and it was awsome! If you closed your eyes you'd have thought you went back in time 30 years. As tight as ever. They've lost NOTHING over the years (except maybe a little hair).
+14550,1,Norton Personal Firewall 2004,"I'm using Windows 98 SE and have run Norton antivirus 2000 for several years and was very happy. Then a very dark cloud appeared - it was called Norton Personal Firewall 2004. I had to clean my hard drive for other reasons and when I reloaded everything I decided to get rid of my old firewall, Black Ice and install Norton's new Firewall 2004. After I reloaded everything and got back up running the computer speed gradually became slower and slower until it virtually stopped. After discussion with several experts I decided to uninstall both the 2000 and 2004 Norton versions. I did reinstall Nortons Antivirus 2000 and got a new firewall, Zone Alarm. The computer runs just fine. I am not a computer expert, but it seems to me that Nortons Firewall 2004 did something very naughty to my computer, and my blood pressure. I would not recommend Norton's Personal Firewall 2004 to my enemies."
+14551,1,CRAP,This is not a PUA book. It is written by a 60 year old lady who was a therapist like 100 years ago. This book will not help you get laid in 2011. I would not recommend this book to anyone.
+14552,2,This is a great CD,A variety of feelings and mostly original work on this CD. I can't believe he plays this stuff on the bass (isn't he missing 2 strings?). I can't get September out of my head it makes me feel so good!
+14553,2,"An economists view of ""normal stuff"" - a fun and fast read","I'm fascinated with macro-systems and how they interact to create ""economies."" This book applies economic principles to phenomena outside of traditional economic ideas.The authors use statistical analysis and other correlation techniques to explain a variety of social system behavior. One example is the use of economic trending to discover cheaters in both a school system's standardized testing and Sumo wrestling status development.I gained a new angle of insight on sociology and human behavior through this book's fresh interpretations of old/existing data. A fun and fast read with a few chuckles and many surprises."
+14554,1,Confusing and time consuming to figure out,"I bought this book in hopes that I could prepare some food and as a basic guide to help me with what to feed my twin girls. I was confused most of the time. I kept reading about this wonderful ""Super Porridge"", but have yet to find a well-written out recipe for it and then have the substitutions/adding of ingredients to follow. It also has you referencing so many pages, you might forget where you started. It was just not the book for me."
+14555,1,Puh-lease!!!!!,"What a crock! These guys are using the oldest tricks in this book.. I Mean, come on. Flirt with a guy so he'll notice you? Right. How about these guys do some of the work themselves? They want us to act like hookers but they won't even pay... I actually bougt this dog book... Girls, don't waste your $..."
+14556,1,It only lasted for a year :(,"I've bought it in 01/08/01, started to use it on February (It was bought on the USA) and it was doing fine, untill some weeks ago. Now it seems not to recognize the blank media. I'm dissapointed because I thought Phillips was a good brand of electronics :("
+14557,1,Fragile,The bird feeder looks like it's shown. Good capacity and design. The clear plastic is poor making the product very fragile. Might crack while assembling. I would spend a little more and get a product that would last.
+14558,2,Excellent Classy House & Classic House,Excellent compilation of House & Classic House tracks - very tasteful - one of the better sets within the BARGROOVES series.
+14559,1,NO CONSISTENCY,"Ordered 2 white 33"" blinds and was very happy when fitting the first one and it fit perfectly. Then opened the second box and realized that the color didn't match the first one. It's too much of a hassle so I didn't return either of them. I need to order 4 more but might try to see if the Alabaster color will be more consistent."
+14560,2,"Heavy Duty, Durable but 1 Problem","I received this with my Tippmann 98 custom because I didn't want an extra 6-8 pounds on my gun from the CO2 tank. The wire is really durable and heavy duty. It will not break easily. I don't know how others are having problems with this line. I had no leaking problems at all. The problem is that it coils up when gas is running through it so you may need to break it in. I'm going to try that to see if it at least gets me a greater length. Anyways, you should get this because it's quick and easy to run this from your gun to your CO2 tank and, since it won't break and doesn't leak, it is great to have 6-8 pounds lifted from your arms."
+14561,2,Great buy!,"I bought this for my fiancé for his birthday, the only downfall is that it is the only movie he ever wants to watch! Overall, it was a great gift, especially for those who love the Alien series!"
+14562,1,Misled,"I was very disappointed when I received the cd and found that it did not have the version with Mystikal. I have never heard the version on this cd, all I had ever heard in the club and on the radio is the version with Mystikal, which I am guessing was a remix. If you are looking for that version... make sure you are clear with the vendor. Wasted my money on this one. I don't like it at all. Sounds like a couple of kids in the bathroom playing with a tape recorder."
+14563,2,Reset problems,"I have used several Franklin translators over the years. On the whole, I find them very good. There are two problems, however, that seem to follow all of their problems. The first is that the machine resets itself very often. This means all of my words on the ""word list"" are lost. Not a big deal, but when I find a word I really want to learn, I like to add it to the word list. Then I can review the list from time to time hoping I will eventually learn it. This is really frustrating as the machine seems to reset quite often. This always happens with a change in batteries.On the whole the dictionary is great. Swear words are omitted .... understandable for minors, but not needed for adults. (A real shame when I read ""Cincuenta sombras de Gray"") However, the dictionary is very bad with adverbs, that end in ""mente"" I am rarely able to find a translation. You can shorten the word to another form, but the adverbs seem to be omitted."
+14564,1,"Good movie, bad DVD","I would love to buy this movie on DVD, but only after good features have been added. First of all, widescreen. No DVD should be released without the original aspect ratio. Second, this Paris-based movie should have full French language support. I checked other regions for this DVD and it *is* available in widescreen with French, but not here in Region 1 (where both English and French are official languages -- both languages should be supported in both audio and subtitles on all Region 1 DVDs). Other DVD features, such as audio commentaries, featurettes, and other forms of information, would be much appreciated."

+14566,2,Wonderful Product,I absolutely love this product. I received it just in time for the bitter cold football games. Couldn't be happier.
+14567,2,Brilliant!,"""Mission to Mars"" sets the bar for science fiction movies to an all-time high! From the opening party sequence to the non lift-off sequence to Mars. Jim McConnell (Gary Sinise) is in top form leading his squad of astronauts on a mission to find life on Mars. Even though the year is 2020, the movie feels like a 1950's B-movie. The movie is pure intellect! The squad (Connie Nielsen, Jerry O'Connell, Tim Robbins and the MIA Don Cheadle). A strange face was formed in the sand and water was found on Mars! The explanation for the human species was dumbfounding! What an extravagant piece of filmmaking! Brian De Palma tries to pull a Stanley Kubrick and does better! The CGI is breathtaking, watch the aliens transform into dinosaurs and then people! What an impressive, captivating, enthralling motion picture! Everybody needs to experience this masterpiece!"
+14568,1,Avoid at all costs!,The first calculator lasted about a year. Then display went out. The second one lasted about a week and the same display problem - digits not properly displayed - hit me during a final exam. Horrible quality! Avoid it if you can!

+14570,2,All homes need a copy,"Part of my hand became permanently numb. I found Merck manual narrowing the problem down to a few options. I knew which kind of doc I needed to see - a neurologist. I asked if he minded me telling him what I thought it was before he did... damaged ulner nerve! Yes! I had prepared myself for that possibility & understood the basics so we could quickly go from there. (I literally find myself reading this book for hours it's so interesting and has many diagrams).But Careful, the paperback version I have is about 5 x 3.5 x 3 inches with tiny print. If you can swing it, get the larger paperbound version or hard cover."

+14572,2,Resident Evil Code Veronica,"I found the game quite enjoyable and challenging.The only problem I had with the game was that if you don't have a strategy guide for the game, you really don't know what to do. The graphics and video are excellent and realistic. Although I found the game to be a little too short. Overall I highly recommend the game."
+14573,1,"It was a birthday present, I should've bought another NL cd","First of all, they should've never been dedicate the whole cd to B-ball, that's just imposible. So, yeah I was disappointed when I listened this Cd the first time. And I would never buy such a cd, but as I said, it was a present.. so I can't tell my friends how worse this cd is. No Limit is going down maybe, but I still love solo cd's of Master P, Silkk the Shocker... And we all know: 2pac was the best"
+14574,1,dont bother,I haven't read such a load of trash for ages. It is not based as far as I can see on any scientific basis just his opinion. It appears to be just a desire to make money. Please don't bother.

I plan to just take back to home depot and buy another brand..I dont have the time to deal with a company that puts out product below par on the market. Also very bad design on mounting the faucet onto counter top..very tiny nut and hard to grab and tighten properly...stick to american standard or kholer brand...hope this helps"

+14577,1,You will NOT get the globe pictured here.,"This globe was cheap. It will help you point out where countries are to your child. Other than that, it is crap. It is NOT the globe pictured here. This one is clear (not blue). It's also smaller. It's made extremely poorly to the point where the seam artificially squishes the countries. The most frustrating part is that it is NOT what I ordered. I contacted the seller and they told me it was amazon's problem because amazon does the shipping. PLEASE FIX THE PICTURE AND DESCRIPTION!!"
+14578,1,Didn't stop the spraying,My vet recommeded this product since I have a neutered cat that sprays. Used the plug in and the spray. Within a week the area treated area and the plug in were both covered in urine. Guess kitty told me who was boss ! He's now on behavior medication and doing fine. The feliway went into the trash.
+14579,1,"Great for Learning, but Not Durable","This is a nice learning toy for children, but we had trouble with ours breaking. My 4-year-old son, who generally isn't hard on toys managed to break the clock within a couple months. The hands didn't match up with the time display. I took the clock apart and managed to fix it but it was not easy to fix. About a year later, he broke it again. I remembered how difficult it was to fix so the clock is in the garbage. I'm very sad about this because my son who is now 5, could still learn from this clock. He's just learning to count my 5s and up to this point only knows the 0'clocks, 30s, quarter-afters, and quarter-tos."

+14581,2,The Hosts of Dax,"A Trill Tale. Jadzia undergoes some kind of ritual to meet her past hosts. For a story like this, it was well written. I was thoroughly entertained by this stand-alone season 3 episode. It doesn't have anything to do with any story arc, but it was fine just the same. Watch this one if you're watching all the good episodes of DS9. 4.0/5 Stars. ~Keep On Trekkin'"
+14582,2,A delicious selection of Gorey delights,"A collection of various works by the devilishly deadpan Gorey, ""Amphigorey Also"" is a book that demands repeated readings. The book displays Gorey's talents to the fullest, from his painstakingly cross-hatched black-and-white drawings to his more lighthearted color works. This book is a must-read (and a must-own) for Gorey fans as well as the uninitiated."
+14583,1,hard to see,Poor quality printing. Content material seemed fasinating but I could not read this book. I had trouble reading this print since there was not enough contrast between page and ink.
+14584,1,DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME ON THIS ONE!!!,"This may not be the worst movie ever made but it comes pretty darn close! From reading the other reviews I knew that I would either love it or hate it, and obviously I HATED IT!!! There was NOTHING entertaining about this movie - from the unconvincing love story and transparent plot to the frenzied performances. Don't bother with this one!And while we're on the subject - How anyone can compare this movie with SAVING PRIVATE RYAN is incomprehensible. Personally, I thought PRIVATE RYAN was a bit graphic for my taste, but it is a brilliant film and is destined to become a classic. Meanwhile everyone will be referring to this farce as ""that bit of Shakespeare nonsense."""
+14585,2,Very nice,my dad found one of these at his work when he was clearing out an apartment it was sitting at the top of the trash and he gave it to me cause im the tech guy in our home so i charged it up touchscreen accuracy is top notch and it helps alot sounds it about a .5/5 but other than that very very nice i love it and i got for free but i hope you guys buy it!!!!!
+14586,2,Excellent so far,"I bought this book several years ago... not sure why it has taken me this long to write a review.I've only tried one recipe - Bucatini with Sausage, Peppers, and Onions. For those of you who are complaining that these recipes are no good, you obviously have not tried this one. It's super healthy but delicious.If you're having problems finding ingredients, go online and find substitutes. For goodness sakes. Get creative.The main complaint I have is that I haven't tried more of the recipes because I have no idea what I am making since there are no pictures. Thus, I don't know if something looks like something I would enjoy. Perhaps referencing a website with pictures would help??Anyway, what people are saying about recipes taking more than 30 minutes is true, unless you have a food processor."
+14587,1,Parts Missing AND Parts Broken,"Haven't even plugged the lights in yet, but I started the assembly of each light (which isn't easy for someone with big fingers and little patience). Some assembly required is an understatement with this kit.We're missing small parts for all of the spotlights and some of the wire ends are stripped off, so before I've even started wiring the lights outside, we've already lost 7 lights. Makes the full kit worth that much less.I'll update my review after finishing the installation. So far its a 1 star product..."

+14589,1,Three men - Two stars,"Three men in a boat is a fantastic read - the mix of comedy and adventure is perfect and it captures the Victorian era to a 't'.I therefore had high hopes of the sequel, Three men on the bummel. Unfortunetly I can not praise it. The laugh aloud comedy element has given way to, at beast monologues you smile through, at worst, ones you want to skip. The adventure is in short supply and doesn't sit well with the comedy. A real shame."
+14590,1,BAD REACTION?,"Did anyone else have a bad reaction to this product?I took my first 2 capsules yesterday morning and a little while later my chest felt like it had a tight band around it--regular movement of arms and deep breaths hurt. The pain wasn't as strong by the evening so I took 2 more to see if the pills might be the cause. The pain increased and my chest cavity hurt to move around in bed.I am a bit concerned because I wondered if I was having a heart attack.I am not on any medication and have not even taken any headache pain meds recently.I looked on the internet and can't find anything about bad reactions to this product.Could any of the secondary ingredients in this product have caused this reaction?I didn't take any pills today and am almost back to normal.I guess if the pills kill me, I won't hear the ringing in my ears anymore. ;-)"
+14591,2,"Finally, a great look at American adolescence.","This volume is the first on a new series on Adolescence and Education, edited by two renown professors, Frank Pajares of Emory University and Tim Urdan of Santa Clara University. This first book covers general issues and begins with a first-rate chapter from Barbara Finkelstein that provides an overview of the history of adolesncence from an American perspective. The Woolfolk, Midgley, and Kaufman chapters are superb. The book should be of interest to anyone interested in how modern scholars are conceptualizing adolescence in American society today."
+14592,2,Surprisingly dope.,"When I first got this joint I was like, yeah yeah, some more bullsh*t gangsta rap, but after listening to it I was really took back. This sh*t ain't bad at all, mad heads are gonna be surprised by this double LP. Basically disc 1 is the west coast sh*t, and disc 2 is the east coast sh*t, cause I hope ya'll know that Kurupt is from my hometown, Philly. I mean I can't sit here and say I liked every song, because I damn sure didn't, but you take the good with the bad, on the average I'd have to say that the east coast joint is dope, with Buckshot connecting on ""Light Sh*t Up"", and Noreaga doing his thing on ""We Can Freak It Out (remix)"". It's a well produced album, with heads like Easy Mo Bee, Battlecat, Studiotone, and Daz coming though on the production tip. On the real though, I know alot of people think Kurupt is wack, but give this joint a chance, you will be surprised by what you hear."
+14593,2,Excellent derivation of typological hermeneutics,"I recommend this work as an excellent derviation of the rules of typology from the Bible itself. In answer to the kooky theories often derived from poorly developed typology, this book clarifies the issues on how the rules of typology should be derived from Scripture itself. -- Jarrod"
+14594,2,A Destiny Foretold,"This book peaked my interest in the Mexican Revolution of 1910 and the resistance forces. The characterization of the youthful Antonio captured my interest immediately as it became difficult to set the book aside. The author best describes Antonio as having a novel yet dangerous life as he dreamed, floated and glided effortlessly in void. A Destiny Foretold is rich in words and their description presents such a vivid visual of the times and places that influenced Antonio's life."
+14595,2,quietude for a searching mind,All That You Are is a source of quietude in a world gone mad and frenzied. It can be a readable companion as valuable as The Prophet by Kahlil Gibran or The Book of Tao Te Ching. All That You Are is as uplifting as II Corinthians and as profound as Jonathon Livingston Seagull.
+14596,1,for aspiring gourmet chefs only,"Based on this book's title, I believed I would get simple, delicious recipes. Instead, I found recipes for meals that I would expect to find on the menu at a gourmet restaurant. I have a four-year-old step-daughter to consider when I cook, and I know she wouldn't touch half of the meals this book contains. Additionally, many of the recipes contain obscure ingredients like tapenade, lamb's kidneys, and goat cheese. Am I the only one who doesn't have these items on my grocery list? I guess I might use one or two of the main dish recipes if I were trying to impress a dinner guest... I will say that the soup, salad and dessert recipes look inviting, but I wouldn't make those either unless I were entertaining. All in all, I don't suggest buying the book unless you're an aspiring gourmet chef."
+14597,2,Bad acting and Good music VS Good acting bad music like it,"Gauridians of the Earth uninited we Roar! Power rangers wild Force, Noble tiger, Great shark, soring ealgel, irion bision, Roriang Lion!... Is that supose to make the Rangers stronger or somthing? It's not helping them defeat Zenaku. Like BlackwarGreymon, He tries to rember what hapen and was the 6th ancient warrio that was destroyed becase he became evil from an unknown source. He's also Inviceble nothing the Rangers are diong isn't working. Not even the Soulbrid can deafeat Zenaku.It's totaly pricless sieng the Rangers lose their Zord crstals that they worked so hard to get.It's theb course of the wolf that defeated the Rangers. Why do they say their stupid motto?(See above frist sentice.) At least Zenaku became the LunerWolf: Merick."
+14598,1,Not heavy enough,need to wrap 3 or 4 around the base of a plastic plant to keep it in the gravel. waste of money.
+14599,2,Good Story ... more complex,"I purchased this for my granddaughter thinking she would be able to read it. However, at age 5, this is just a bit above her reading level, and is more a story to be read to her until she is able to read it for herself, but the story and visual clues will make that very soon for this particular book. Words like elephant and circus make it hard for her to sound out completely on her own to begin with.It is a fun little story, and the fact that the elephant is big is emphasized. When the elephants get off of the ship, they are counted, which makes part of this an easy read.I love the fact that it isn't just words, it is a fun little story that kids can read and reread."
+14600,1,piece o' crap,"this little doggy broke after about 4 uses--the plastic shoulder nut strips and you can no longer plunge. bodum sent me a replacement metal nut but there is no way in HECK to unscrew this thing! I would NOT buy this--go with the glass press or something (then you break it--as did I--hence my purchase of this thingy) A HUGE disappointment from bodum, normally a great company"
+14601,1,A waste of money!,"Like ""Kari"" from Colorado, I've always used Remington ladies razors and needed a new one, so I started researching and found this Panasonic. I decided to give it a try since it was less expensive and sounded like it would work well. I am SO SORRY I spent my money on this one and will be going back to Remington even though they cost a little more. I can't believe there are not more women complaining about how uncomfortable this razor is to use! Like Kari, I ended up with scratches up and down my legs that actually burned until they healed (from the raised sides)..OUCH!! I do NOT get a close shave like I did with my Remington and it takes me twice the time because I have to keep going over and over the same areas. Very disappointed with this purchase!"
+14602,2,One of the best,"This is a book that I probably would not have picked up on my own; it was a selection from my book club. I was immediately [stunk] into the story--I could not put it down. The story of Grace Marks is so compelling, and Atwood is a master storyteller. This book has become not only my favorite of the books my book club has read, but one of my favorite books, period. Since then, I have read more of Atwood's work and enjoyed everything, but this is her best work that I have read."
+14603,2,Favourite Poems - Vol 2,"Book was a gift for my mother who grew up in Glasgow, Scotland and Donegal, Ireland. She got a great kick out of the poems she had to memorize as a child and she still remembers quite a lot of them verbatim. She enjoyed it immensley."
+14604,1,A philosophy professor's lecture and lunch conversation,"A rambling, self-important, name-dropping, and pretentious work that I forced myself to finish. The literary device of focusing on discussions with two fictional students during much of the book was annoying and an easy way to increase page count without requiring serious rigor. I have just started Galbraith's 'Money'; it seems much more robust, though admittedly of a slightly different focus."
+14605,2,A 2-yeaold vulcano,"My 2 yearold son wants to watch this video twice a day - we are NO TV- o videofreaks, but this is vey wonderful to watch and practice together. Since I do yoga myself I was very happy to find this video to be able to introduce yoga for my son. I find it inspiring too as a teacher and will try this on a group of 4-yearolds."
+14606,1,Slogging through Hindi,"There is some serious slogging here. You can start right into the conversational, but each chapter is *so* dense that you don't feel like you are touching bottom! The beginners hindi version of this book is a *much* better version..."
+14607,1,Not as bad as the reviews,"This is not that bad of a book. However, if you are using it as the sole preparation for the exam, you are in trouble. I haven't seen the Sybex book yet, but I would consider purchasing that one also."
+14608,2,Excellent Book,"This book didn't help so much as a tutorial when I was first getting started. The Matlab online tutorials do a better job. However, where this book really shines is when you have to take the next step and create applications.This book demonstrates the tips and tricks to really make Matlab come alive as a language."
+14609,1,Not very satisfying...,"I'm a reader who enjoys trying to ""put the pieces together"" as I make my way through a good mystery. This book frustrated me by making sudden, jolting turns through the plot and then it pulled the rug out from under me at the end. On the plus side, it's an easy read and suffices for an afternoon of sheer escapism. Think Grisham with a graduate-level psychology degree."
+14610,2,Deeply moving and sincere,"One of the best soundtracks I've ever heard! Each of the pieces has its own unique style, crystalizing a particular emotion or idea. Some are fun and upbeat, others more somber, but the quality of the sound and the voices is par excellence. None of that maudlin, screechy, overblown stuff most Indian music is infamous for. 'Ishwar Allah' is one of the most beautiful songs I've heard. Deeply spiritual and eloquent, it resonates for a long time and becomes more meaningful with every encounter. Highly recommended!"
+14611,2,Fine,"Although stating the obvious and no groundbreaking insights, Maxwell does provide a good review. Unfortunately, Maxwell does not fully address working in a dysfunctional or poorly led organizations. For most organizations, however, Maxwell does a good job. This is a nice, easy read with some head scratching moments. It is worth the money and worth the time."
+14612,1,Recording volume too low,"I really wanted to like this mic and everyone all over the net seemed to love. It sounds great, the options are nice, and it's really cute, but the recording volume is unacceptably low. I have the levels on windows 7 maxed, and there aren't any other drivers to help it. I have hold it two inches from my face, it's too heavy/bulky to do that comfortably, and not terribly attractive to be webcasting with your head behind this giant ball."
+14613,1,Too Long & Very Boring,"This book is way too long for teens, I think it was a great idea just needed to briefly touch on each subject. Teens like short stories that is why Taste Berries for teens are such a success. They needed to (KISS) Keep it Simple Stupid"
+14614,1,Good...at first,"I bought this product when it first came out and it worked but never had a clear sound. There was always static on every available station and always had to be touching it. Currently, I have not used it in months because it won't pick up ANY station at all. Very disappointed. I am in the process of purchasing a different product."
+14615,1,duplicate dvd,This is the same dvd that I had previously purchased with a different cover. I will keep it because I like the workout and the previous dvd skips in places.

+14617,1,plus size skirt,"I wouldn't have bought the skirt had I known from the description that it had a slit, especially since the slit was in the front and so couldn't not be concealed."
+14618,2,oh yeah..i read this in a day...and i'm glad i did.,"it goes by pretty quickly. guy and girl fall in love over email. that's the premiss of this novel. my favorite part is where the man emails CHAPTER 17 of this novel he's writing. it is so HOTT!!! but i love meg cabot so i'm biased. good chick lit, again this little nogut goes down fast and sweet! bon appettie!"
+14619,1,Disposable,"I ordered a bunch of these for my work crews and no one was impressed. They break easily and are not durable at all. Not recommended, unless you like disposable chargers!"
+14620,2,Weather forecast,I live abroad from USA. The product is very good but it seems is only developed for USA.
+14621,2,Book,"I agree to an earlier review stating that the author leaps subject to subject. Even annoying at times. On upside of things i simply enjoy the ideas that he dredges up and the theories he propses. The author makes no attempts to over embellish his theories (no more than the scholars that Preach what so many of us have taken as granted for being facts since as early as elementary school). The Ideas are eye opening and at the very least, highly entertaining. For I to take the time to write a review for a book i read on Amazon, I know it's worth the read."
+14622,2,Leave your hypocrisy at the door,"If you are going to be offended and not enjoy a little humor, please don't buy this. On the other hand, if you enjoy good humor and some laughs, get this DVD. Enjoyed the show and hope that this is not all from this talented comedian."
+14623,1,Feelings ~ Morris Albert,"At first, I was very please to see the song,this world today is a mess on tracks informationbecause I've been wanting to get.So I ordered the this CD and I recieved it today.But this CD has no song(track).even Feelings, this song is not the original.Most track on prodducts details is quite different.So I've just requested Return Package to get money back."
+14624,1,Midland WR-300 not easy,"I am an experience computer user, nevertheless, to this day, I have not been able to get this weather radio to function as well as my previous Radio Shack weather radio. The severe weather warnings do not play automatically but I do get lots of sirens without identifying the reason, although mostly seems to be for weekly checks.The user document must have been written in foreign countries. I would not recommend."
+14625,1,Extremely bad image for such a new film.,"There is a terrible issue with what some are calling ""grain"" on JURASSIC PARK. But I've seen blu-rays which show film grain, and in this case, it appears to be something else. I've become accustomed to film grain, and I've even grown to appreciate it as part of this artistic medium. With JURASSIC PARK, it looks like static or white noise...especially during the scene where Hammond shows the DNA film to the park's four guests.If you've seen THE AFRICAN QUEEN on blu-ray, then you know that there is no reason this problem should exist. JURASSIC PARK was shot in a more controlled environment with such greater technology. If they can make THE AFRICAN QUEEN look as good as it does (it looks beautiful, and stunningly sharp), then this film, which is more than 40 years younger, should look at least as good.There must be a defective batch of discs, which were released. Because it really is unwatchable."
+14626,1,Great saw with a flaw,"Powerful saw for heavy duty jobsite cutting, but noticed the one I bought didnt plunge cut very smooth (kind of bogged it down. Found that the blade wasnt square with the plate (I wouldve had to set the saw at about 2 degrees to cut square).I exchanged it for a new one, same problem. Checked out the display model at a local home improvement store, same thing.3 strikes , its out"
+14627,1,It's a real disappointment,"I just wanna say that I absolutely LOVE Garbage, and I adore both of their albums.However, this single was just totally disappointing. When I Grow Up is a great song, but it's the only great song on the single. ""Tornado"" is seriously the worst Garbage song I have ever heard. I didn't think it was possible to write a bad Garbage song. The ""Special"" remix didn't do anything for me either, it bored me after a while.Only get this single if you collect Garbage stuff, because unless you are a MEGA fan, it's just not worth it, and you're better off buying the ""Special"" single so that you can hear a REAL Garbage B-Side."
+14628,1,"TOO SLOW, AND COFFEE DOESN'T STAY WARM","I've had this for one year. It doesn't keep the coffee warm for more than a couple of hours after brewing. As it has gotten older, it takes longer to make the coffee. I'm always waiting for it to get finished."
+14629,1,Literary lockup,"Reading this memoir was the equivalent of mental lockup. Wasn't the page turner I anticipated. In fact, it wasn't a page turner at all. It was slow and laborious w/a lot of peeking ahead to see how many pages were left. And, as another reviewer remarked, there were enough typos to keep a copyeditor employed. The memoir reads like the author dictated it instead of sitting down and writing it. In instances, his dates are off, ie, how could he be squiring a Penthouse Pet around town in 1960 when the magazine Penthouse didn't come out until 1969? Things like that wore on me. Instead of feeling excitement or suspense, I started to wonder how much of the book was real and how much was, well, fiction. Stick w/Bunker's novels instead, especially his gritty, No Beast So Fierce. Or if you want a great prison yarn, try Henri Charriere's Papillon."

+14632,1,Not realistic prices,"Heres an example. Go on sites such as gunbroker or any other online firearms sales site and compare prices.HAMMERLI .22cal listed in the hundreds of dollars are fetching still over $1,000 in good condition. Ruger NM super blackhawks same thing the prices listed for .44 cal,.41,.45 cal are not accurate.Taurus revolvers are pretty spot on but derringers for $40 etc, is unreasonable unless the gun traders guide puts an note that prices are for private party and or pawn shops. Gun shows,gun shops and online sales are no wheres close to the low prices listed in this book. Remember alot has happened in the media and im sure that has raised prices as well but other thanusing the pictures as a reference, this book is nothing but bathroom reading material.Walmart has it new for $22 and i would save your money and go online to gunsamerica or gunbroker and just see what a specific fire arm is selling for to judge where the price should be realistically.Good luck"
+14633,1,dont purchase anything from this seller,"The seller false advertized. He/she used the picture of the book I bought and sent a completely different book.The book took two weeks to get to me. On arrival the incorrect book was wrapped in a used paper grocery bag that was ripped in multipe places. Upon contacting the seller of the problem, they refused to remedy the problem. No refund, for their bogus product. Dont waist your money purchasing anything from this seller, they will only rip you off!"
+14634,1,Missed Opportunity,"I did not get to read Dutch until after it had been given bad reviews by the media. I was able to keep an open mind about the book. However, upon starting the book, I soon agreed with the criticism. I skipped numerous pagers (gladly) to avoid Morris's fictional characters. I feel that Morris missed an incrediable opportunity on this book. He had such close access to the presidency and such a free hand, and he blew it. I expected a thorough biography of a great president. Instead I got a large editorial of fiction/history. I am glad to say that the latter part of the book strayed away from the author's fictionl creations. Too many important details were skipped over or simply mentioned briefly. I can only hope that someone else will come along and try to make up where Morris fell so short, and give us an exhaustive work on Ronald Reagan. I feel he deserves it."
+14635,2,"Wonderus, completaly magical. A powerful saga","Amzing! The Sartan Alfred is a splinded part. The Assasain Hugh is a grand twist in the plot. Siniastad is a grand enemy, as is IradilI say this can rival J. R. R. Tolken and C. S. Freidman"
+14636,1,Not as good as I expected,"This movie was made on the downswing of what was known as the Golden Age of musicals, and I think it shows. By this time both movies and actors were focusing less on song and dance, and more on drama. It's easy to see that in this film. Except for Fred Astaire, anybody else singing and dancing in this movie is highly distressing. The romance between Audrey and Fred isn't very inspired and poorly developed. Any of the characters other than Fred and Audrey feel like a waste of screen time, because they don't appear to significantly contribute to the story. Honestly I had a hard time watching this."
+14637,1,If you like low-budget imitators!,"This is not creative like the ""Scary Movie"" series or ""Don't Be a Menace to South Central When Drinking Your Juice in the Hood."" This is a little ""Starsky and Hutch"" with ""Bad Boys"" with ""Lethal Weapon,"" and maybe even some ""Rush Hour."" ""Reno 911: Miami"" had me cracking up, but this left me non-plussed. Clearly, Flavor Flav just said, ""Show me da money!"" and signed on for his bit part. Predictible characters, bad acting, predictible outcomes: trust me, you've seen this before. Only people who were as absolutely bored as I was would bother to see this."
+14638,2,A New Light,"My new headlight bulbs are working great. They provide a wider field of vision than the original equipment headlights on my Sentra, and more distance too. I was concerned that since I could see a little further that I would get oncoming drivers flashing their lights at me thinking I had them on bright, but none so far. Also, I find myself using low beam no matter how dark or vacant the road because that's all I need now!"
+14639,2,Couldn't put it down (unless I was tired),"I thought the book was really good. I liked Blackie the dog, because he always stole cupcakes and cakes! I always like a book with a happy ending like this one."
+14640,1,Did not fit.,"I should have read the reviews. Pin hole did not align due to weld, was about 1/8-1/4 of an inch off. I was also disappointed there was no mention that this adapter was not meant for towing until you open the package. It'll probably be ok for small boat, which was my purpose of buying, or jet ski or other light towing, but not worth the chance."
+14641,1,"Sorry I was in such a hurry to read the ""latest"" Grisham","A copy of a guidebook to Bologna and first year Italian lessons. Then directions on how to escape Bologna by bus, cab, train, plane. And if you didn't get the directions the first time, it's repeated. I'm not sure the pace ever picked up. Not up to expectations for a good Grisham read. If you must read it, borrow it from the library or some pathetic friend who shelled out the full price at local bookstore."
+14642,1,Didn't Care For It...,"I know there seems to be a lot of fair reviews on this book, but it didn't really seem all that great to me. My biggest complaint overall was the grammatical errors, which is a pet peeve of mine and I kept running into them on just about every page. It made me wonder who exactly did the editing, because they obviously weren't doing their job. The writing just also seemed kind of week, also, although the story was interesting, I feel like the quality of writing brought it down."
+14643,1,Disappointed in Sue Grafton's latest novel,"I just finished Sue Grafton's latest novel and was so disappointed that I have to write my first review. The previous novels in this series were fun because Ms. Grafton had taken the time to develop an interesting character: Kinsey. In S is for silence, Kinsey's personality is nowhere to be seen and as a result the book is, well, boring. I wouldn't be surprised if she heavily relied on a ghost writer for this novel because the dialogue is so different."
+14644,2,"Cane Guard Guardian, Narrow Base",I bought this silver quad cane for my 85 year old mom. She has severe arthritis in her knees and this four pronged cane gives her the stability she needs to walk around. She uses the cane everywhere she goes. This cane has given her more independence and mobility. She definitely recommends this cane. The delivery was fast and the price was very good!
+14645,1,Dull,Im not sure why this book received high ratings. It was meandering and disjointed. The characters were under developed and their motivations were vague - vague even for folks who enjoy classic literature and ancient human beliefs.
+14646,2,Great tool.,The book Apostle of the Crucified Lord is a great tool to be used when examining Paul's letters. It really help to understand the times that they were written in and the culture in the days of early Christianity. I am currently using the book for a college theology class and I also know of two other universities using it for the same class.
+14647,1,Past its Prime,"This one is well past its prime. Written in 1945, it doesn't use standard algebraic notation, doesn't have good graphics or pictures, and in general isn't all that groundbreaking for anything. The second part on Basic Principles and the third part on openings have some decent nuggets - but not worth buying unless you collect these types of books."
+14648,1,Wearing these shorts actually cuts my skin during Spinning class.,"I am a group cycling instructor and needed to add a new pair of shorts to my existing 3-4 pairs. I purchased these based on the name brand and low cost. I like the fit of the shorts (I wear mens medium) and the grippers on the bottoms of the legs definitely keep the shorts from riding up.The padding is in a weird position in that it is too far back for my needs. Most importantly, it seems that every time I wear these shorts in a cycling class I get little cut on my rear on each side of my skin where the stitching for the pad meets the shorts. Obviously, this is not acceptable.I haven't taken the time to investigate this further, and it could be that just re-sewing the pad with a softer thread would resolve this problem. Instead, the shorts have been pushed to the back of my drawer in favor of more comfortable ones.I wouldn't buy these again although I might consider a higher quality item from this manufacturer."
+14649,1,This title is a bit outdated.,Please be advised when you order this that it was published in 1999. It uses GTK 1.x series and really isn't very helpful since 2.x is the current standard.
+14650,1,So pitiful!,"Well, if you can handle the graphics that make the games from the 1980's look amazing and the 1,000,000's of glitches, it's pretty fun."
+14651,2,Excellant Ab Workouts,"This DVD has 8 short and effective ab routines with a nice variety of workouts. Some traditional and then additions like scissor kicks and other means to get all of your abs.I have definately noticed an improvement using this a few times a week, and they are easy to fit in. 6-8 minutes or so. Three easier routines which I started using and are good. Three more that are tougher then two other routines using weights and balls.Good DVD to throw into the exercise mix when you want something short that gets the job done."
+14652,1,"Dull, dumb","I don't particularly care for J. Lo. But I watched ""Enough"" on cable and I have to admit, it was pretty good. So, I gave ""Maid in Manhattan"" a try and thought maybe I'd have to become a fan of Miss Lo if the movie was good. It was stinkola. She is totally unbelievable in the role. There was no chemistry between her and Fiennes. The plot was dumb. It just did not hold my interest at all, it was tough to sit through the whole thing. I'm okay with preditable, sappy, dumb romantic comedies, but this was just plain boring. I was very disappointed. I think J. Lo is really an ok actress with some potential for making decent and entertaining films, but this isn't one of them."
+14653,2,Good to Go,This is one of the best books I have ever read about the Navy SEALS in Vietnam. Mr. Constance shares his experiences in a vivid and eye opening way. The sheer terror of the missions he conducted must of been overwelming. This book will keep you on the edge from beginning to end.
+14654,1,'MINUETS IN THE MANSION',"Or, ""Minute Man?""This is director Michael Winner's spin on Henry James ""Turn of the Screw"" - the early years! Filmed originally as ""The Innocents"" [unsurpassed original] this is the so-called prequel, famous for starring Brando as the depraved Quint and Stephanie Beacham as the somewhat ..deviant Governess [but old Quint does teach her a thing or two].AND it does go on and on and on - especially the ""bedroom"" scenes!Not really memorable, it was, I believe, made after the far superior ""Last Tango in Paris"" - and Mr. Brando, with all respect, still has a waist-line in this one! [Just kidding, we adore him in all guises!]It's supposed to be a movie/script about the [downfall] of innocence - in this case the two minors [the children]. AND it does somewhat solve the mystery surrounding the strange death of Quint and the Governess......Of interest? The Operatic version - Benjamin Britten's ""The Turn of the Screw"" - quite adult, an excellent version available on video."
+14655,1,Horrible product that doesn't work,"Fisher-Price Digital Arts & Crafts StudioMy daughter received this as a gift from her grandmother for Christmas, and what a disappointment! I'm very computer savvy, but after spending 3 hours trying to get it to work, I finally gave up. The thing locked up all the time, each section (dot to dot, coloring, etc.) had squiggly lines through everything and did not clear up, even after I made sure all the graphics settings matched the product specs. I too had no luck reaching a live person at Fisher Price customer service, and their web page support is nothing more than a copy of the 2-page product manual and a phone number. I can't believe they haven't responded to their customers with at least some mention that they intend to provide a software patch. I will never purchase a Fisher Price product again."
+14656,1,The Filmmakers Should Be DAMNED!,"This is truly a lousy film, one of the worst of all time. The villian, played by deceased recording artist Ailiyah, doesn't make an appearance until 45 minutes into the film. Even then, her presence is too brief to establish any sort of feelings pro or con toward her character.Her character doesn't take any actions until the movie is almost over. The total onscreen time for the antagonist is probably not much more than 10 minutes. Ailiyah had more quality time onscreen in her music video promo for the film.If all you expect is to watch MTV for a couple of hours, then this is the movie for you. The plot--if you can call it one--is weak, uninspired, unimaginative. This movie is worth watching for free, let alone paying for it."
+14657,1,Waste of $,"Used this machine only 10 times on my upstairs hallway carpet. It completely stopped suctioning leaving me with a dirty, smelly, wet carpet. Called customer service & was told that there was only 1 service center in the entire city of San Antonio. Chances are I won't even bother making the drive."
+14658,2,id buy it again,Great looking wire hve not spliced it yet but defenatly close to 16guage maybe slighty smaller but still great wire. my spool was broken when i got it but o well.
+14659,1,Can't seem to find any articles...,"I used to get this magazine several years ago and thought it offered alot of useful information - Currently, this magazine has turned into an advertising mecca - very little useful content. If you took all the ads out, I bet the magazine would only be about 4 pages long. Not much depth or educational information any more. Very disappointing. Amazon said my subscription would start in November. So far in the past 2 weeks I have received the Aug, Sept. and Oct. issues. All are the same - all ads, no substance. Glad I only wasted $5 and will not be renewing."
+14660,1,Jane Olivor Completely Misses,"What a disappointment. I have always been a huge fan of Jane Olivor. When I heard she was releasing a Christmas album, I couldn't wait to get a copy - what a mistake.The album sounds like one big long constant note, unchanging and missing the life and power usually found in Jane Olivor's voice.There is just far too much Christmas music from which to choose for people to subject themselves to such a flat album. Unfortunately, something I thought would be thrilling is now headed for the trash."
+14661,1,Hitman,I love Timothy Olyphant but this was one of the worse movies ever..I would not recommend buying it..Waste of money..
+14662,2,Excellent product - installation was very simpl,"I bought this in the very first week of their availability. I am using it with no problems with an HP C3100 printer, shared between a desktop and several laptops.The installation was extremely simple - the software even automatically responds to Windows driver signing dialogs ! Operation is largely foolproof - the only aspect I don't like is that you have to connect to the printer in order to print. I would have thought that that could have been done automatically."
+14663,2,Only way to have a natural birth,This book was extremely helpful. It gave me different relaxation techniques. I didn't work with a hypotherapist or anything but I found that I could pick and choose what would work for me. Don't beleive is when it says that without fear there will be no pain because there definately is but you can work through it with the technique and a great partner to help you focus. Good luck!
+14664,2,Don't be a smeghead,If your are a Red Dwarf fan then I'm sure your on your way to owning every series. My younger sister and I began watching Red Dwarf when it was broadcast on PBS in America. We had to stay up until 11 pm on Saturday to see it. Way past our bed time but it was so worth being sleepy during Sunday school the next day. I wonder why smeghead never caught on.
+14665,1,He Assumes way too much knowledege.....,"With a title like ""Ultimate Beginner Series"" he assume way too much. He is very good and I have other DVD's by Keith. I just wish they would show you the cords in a box like the other DVD's in this series. In this one you are stuck looking at his hands trying to figure out what to play"
+14666,1,Filters that Suck Figuratively,"I was impressed by the filtration speed and power, but it was a bit noisy.In less than two years, the thin little ceramic impeller shaft cracked first. Why ceramic? Whynot metal?Now I have a leak somewhere in the 404's gasket. Unfortuntely, Ijust ordered another gasket before I read about other customers who said the new gasket didn't do them any good. I probably shouldn't have wasted my money."
+14667,2,"Gritty northern drama, but heartwarming","Gritty northern drama, that inspires one. Here the theme of going against the grain, of the value of being an individual and non-conformist are celebrated. Aside from that the filme was interesting in recounting the social background of the early '80s in the UK, of the real hardships the miners faced. Great acting all the way round, strikes a gritty realist approach. One can almost taste the soot and coal dust in watching this film. Great songs too."
+14668,2,Great trimmer,"I don't have massive amounts of nose hair. I just like to keep everything neat and trim in there.This is my fourth nose hair trimmer. I tried a cheap one from target, Norelco nose and hair trimmer. It broke after about a week. Being as dumb as possible, I ran out and got another one. It broke a week later. So, I went on Amazon and got this one. Groom Mate Platinum XL Nose & Ear Hair Trimmer. Apparently I didn't read it well enough to notice that it is not powered. It works ok, but it feels like it is pulling out your hairs more than cutting them.This trimmer, however, is wonderful. It is a breeze to use and clean up. It doesn't leave a bunch of trimmed hairs in your nose because of that vacuum. I am quite pleased with this product."
+14669,1,Bah!,"No, Einstein's Relativity IS amazingly brilliant and eloquent, I assure you of this. My review, although, is a buyer beware scenario. I ordered this exact copy of the text and the one that arrived had all sorts of horrendous typos. One? Two? No, more like...a ton. In an example of this, the 'aether' where the character 'ae' is a single one, somehow in the process of printing it, the character got repaced by a space and question mark! So when Einstein talks about the 'process by which the? ther happens...' or some such example, I translate it as 'bad' and not 'aether'.By all means, buy Einstein's copy of Relativity, but please be cautious when ordering from this particular publisher. I'm unaware of whether or not this problem is widespread, but to those who get the one with the maddening typos riddled all over it, just bear through it and appreciate Einstein's eloquence and not the translator or publisher's, in my own personal opinion, bad spellchecking."
+14670,2,Wonderful treatment on how the universe supports one's dreams,"This is the perfect book for someone embarking on a new adventure or chapter in life. It should be required reading for every new graduate for its simple, but provocative, take on trusting one's instinct and listening to God for divine advice."
+14671,2,A Grand Tale,"Kinski, obsessed with a dream, pursues it to a hair's breadth of reality, loses it all, yet comes out of it intact. Set in the South American Jungle, it is so much like our hopes of improving the lot of those we consider less fortunate, but played out in a grander style, yet not in the formula Hollywood style.I found the movie to be a strong parallel to Mosquito Coast, but I'd chose Fitzcarraldo for sheer brilliance and clues for my own salvation.That which does not kill you, improves you......"
+14672,1,Paragraphs on Cards,"I was expecting flash cards- quick concise info on front and back. The front is a term, the back is often a virtual paragraph. It does not test your quick recall. It's like cutting sections from the pages of a text. There are no diagrams, symbols, or bullet points. Just full sentences on each card. Plus once you take some out of the little box and flip through them, they are well nigh impossible to get back into the box.Other Kaplan resources have been helpful, but not this one.For review books I've found the Examkrackers series to be the best overall."
+14673,1,Awful,The low price of this collection of garbage does not dull the sting of having spent that money. The games are no better than old DOS games. Some did not even run on Windows ME. Stay away from this product.
+14674,1,Heavy and Clumsy,"At this expense You'd expect fine leather and/or quality and good taste.These shoes aren't comfortable at all and when my niece wore them she complained a lot that her Feet Hurt !I don't recommend this shoe,total rip-off loser!"
+14675,2,Kids' cooking a delight,"The layout is modern, eye-catching, and yet very kid-friendly. The explanations of kitchen terminology and kitchen utensils are simple enough for kids to understand; thorough, yet concise. The recipes are fun. They use ingredients that are usually in the typical kitchen, or are easily accessible at the local grocery store. The illustrations are brilliant and eye-catching. But the best part? Seeing our jr. chefs at work, making their own culinary delights...and the pride in their eyes at creating something tasty and healthy!"
+14676,2,Incomparable,"Not much to add here. I got the book as soon as it came out four months ago, and pretty much read it in one sitting. To this day, I can't get it out of my head. This book will be written about and obsessed over for as long as the cataclysm it describes is postponed. Staggering."
+14677,1,Not worth the cost,It is light weight and works a little. It eats up batteries really fast and the lid falls off all the time. I stopped using it because after the 3rd time it got really dull and started ripping instead of shaving!
+14678,1,Buy another router-unstable connections,"DI-624 router frequently disconnects itself from all computers, wired and wireless, attached to it. What's more, it will reboot and might take up to 5 minutes to establish a connection, which may happen in the middle of a download.D-link suggests that you downgrade the speed to 10Mb which will reduce files transfer speed in your network by a tenfold. But the issue is not resolve. Upgrading to new firmware (2.50)won't resolve the issue either. Furthermore, replacing the network card for a new one won't resolve the issue.If you want to spend many hours fussing, calling & e-mailing tech support and rebooting a router and reconfiguring it until you are red in the face....go for it..."
+14679,1,Not so beautiful,"I don't write reviews often as really music is personal taste but here we have a difficult situation: I love everything Talib has done up to this album but this is an album of covers and stuff that seems rushed or an attempt to change for changes sake. If you like his ""Quality"" album chances are you won't like this as it is really commercial and now sounds like everything else done by lesser artists in an attempt to what? go mainstream? real rap is not mainstream, any real roots-down hip-hop/rap fan knows this and sometimes a little bit of commerciality brings in the bucks to up the production quality but this is jaded stuff by Talib, with the now token ""get a kid to vocal over a track"" effect, we know he can do better and as a true fan I was dissapointed, by all means buy it but listen to it first!!!!!"
+14680,2,"Beautiful, Gentle, Waterborne","Infused with the islands - recreates them in sound. The perfect accompaniment to a day or evening on the water. This music gently, deeply sinks in. I'm buying another as a gift for a friend so I can get mine back!"
+14681,1,"Sounds like a good idea, but....","I bought this toy for my son for Christmas. I had bought some of the ""trucks"" and wanted him to have Bob and Wendy too. I found this set and thought it would be great. They ONLY good thing about this set is that he has Bob and Wendy.The clicking blocks sound like a great concept, but they don't work. If you can get them to click you are lucky. You can not build anything with this set. The box shows a house, buildings, etc., but you can't build these thing because the magnets are in the wrong places and the roofs make the whole thing top heavy!I would avoid this set unless you just really need Bob and Wendy (like us)."
+14682,2,Does the job for a great price on 1996,"Got this for my 1996 GT Mustang. I wanted to protect my original steering wheel while it still has no cracks or damage, without spending a ton of money or worrying that a manual wrap job would look crappy. Although you need some muscle to put this on, it goes on fairly quickly and fits like a glove. It takes a little bit to get used to the 'thicker' steering wheel but I actually like it better. It looks good and protects, all for a decent price."
+14683,2,"Historically accurate and entertaining to read, a must for rum and naval afficionados","Do you like history? Do you like rum? If you answered 'yes' to both questions, then this book is a must for you!Written by Captain James Pack Obe, this book is the most comprehensive work ever published on rum and the British Royal Navy. The insights into life at sea are exciting and historically correct. From the origin of the rum ration to the Black Tot Day, this book has it all."
+14684,1,Poor Description,"I would prefer to purchase this type of pad use rather than a silicone one, as the silicone causes perspiration and rashes; however, the description for this series of pads merely says ""small, medium or large"" without stating the actual dimensions. This is inadequate, particularly given the cost. Also, the photograph shows two completely different shapes without stating which one will be purchased. This too is unacceptable. Please correct these problems so I may become a happy customer and patronize your store :)Thank you."
+14685,1,"Not bad, no practice paper included","This is an OK book to give you the basics of origami however it did not include the practice paper that was noted in the description. Also, it notes that there are 100 images of different origami however it only shows you how to make 25 of them and the rest is instructions on basic folds along with images of shapes you can make (no instructions). They don't even give you instructions to make a crane! I think you're better off YouTubing, I found it a little less confusing and obviously straight forward."

+14692,1,I'm not buying,"I read the story from beginning to end and while I can admire the writers talent, the story didn't ring true. It was almost impossible to believe that a rational, intelligent man with lots of female adoration would spend 8 years worrying about the one he chose not to bed. The part about the effects of parental alcholism and its effects on children was well done. It would have been helpful to include some info on the dangers of indiscriminate sex in the 21st century."

This is well written (with some noticed errors) and has beautiful illustrations. However, as a gift for a intermediate astronomer, this book was returned. The Universe (DK 2005) is a better starting book and as for an encyclopedia ... the choice goes to the four volume Encyclopedia of Astronomy and Astrophysics (Institute of Physics 2001)."
+14694,1,Not much help,This book was not much help to me when trying to learn about music of the classical and romantic era. The text is very vague and poorly written
+14695,1,Tighten How?,"I could not make these skewers work for my application. I tried to use these skewers to secure a single-speed rear wheel to a vintage frame. Single-speed bikes require the chain to be tightened periodically as the chain wears. These skewers do not allow for the user to secure the rear wheel to a frame with horizontal or semi-horizontal drop-ins. I could not generate the compression necessary to secure the wheel to the frame. Conventional quick releases work better because after you tighten them, the lever allows for you to generate extra compression. Bolted axles are still the best."
+14696,1,Nearly Unreadable,"All I can figure is that this book was researched by Taylor Branch and written by someone else - it is the only logical explanation I can think of for why this book is so aggravating. I read the two previous books in the trilogy and loved both - great research, great detail, great writing. This book has the same excellent research and detail, but the writing is atrocious.On nearly every page I find myself having to re-read a sentence or two to try to figure out what the author is trying to say. For instance, many times a sentence is written about an unknown subject, where the subject is made known two or three sentences later, forcing a trip back up to give the original sentence context.Very, very frustrating. I stopped reading the book about 250 pages in - I want to get to the end of the story but find nearly every page is irritating. Life is too short . . ."
+14697,2,Great headphones,"I needed something that kept out the noise of my family and let me hear the TV. These worked perfectly. These are not for audiophiles, who require perfect sound. I don't think that exists in wireless headphones. It took a little work to get them hooked up correctly through my receiver, so I can listen to music, cable, dvd, vhs, etc. After that, it is easy to use and adjust and charge."
+14698,1,Just not seeing any benefits.,It's not a miracle cure or magic bullet. Remember when Ginseng was THE latest thing??? There are no adverse side effects. My suggestion is: go see your doctor and have a physical instead.
+14699,2,Great little doll for toddlers,"My 22 month old grand daughter was in love with this ""first"" baby doll. It was just the right size for a little girl. It smells yummy (vanilla) and she loved that the eyes closed when she laid the baby down."
+14700,1,Not worth the hassle,"This is the most frustrating DVD player I've ever owned. When it works, it's fine, but . . .Remote is badly designed, you need a light on to use the thing. The pause button is buried between the repeat button and the fluorescent dimmer. Why?I can deal with the remote. The biggest problem is that it is very slow to recognize discs if it does so at all. If the disc is not pristine and dust free, it skips or simply doesn't recognize at all. I don't even bother with it using the kids CDs anymore, too frustrating.My $39 Apex is far more reliable.Update 2/2006:Player totally failed 1/2006. I swore at the time to never buy another Toshiba product. But . . .I called Toshiba Customer Support and they sent me a new player (SD-6980) which so far is fantastic (and adds new features as well):- Good remote- Reads most any disc- Flash card reader- DIVX support"
+14701,1,This product sucks,"This product sucks. I have purchased 4 of the littlegiant pumps over the last 5 years, to get the rainwater off my pool cover. At first I thought that is was theway it was used. The last 3 I would take off the cover afterit cleared the water. They always burn out before a full year.Find another pump. This product sucks."
+14702,1,Even more annoying than that sound from 'Dumb & Dumber',"Despite the authors' best intentions, I found this book trite, silly, and unbelievably irritating.On the plus side, if I ever need a handy, disposable object to mash a cockroach or throw at a caterwauling tomcat, this book will fill the bill. Nicely.Congratulations, Boobus Americanus, for elevating this pap to the top of the New York Times Bestsellers list."
+14703,2,Excellent resource when your teacher is insane.,This book makes everything so much more clear and uses British English which is clearly the only proper way to go.
+14704,2,walk all day in these,These are the most comfortable long-distance walking shoes ever! They provide comfort and support and are just as comfortable with orthotics. They are great right out of the box without any break-in period.
+14705,1,REALLY basic,This book really does little more than teach the aleph-bet. It uses the hebrew alphabet to spell out english words--not much point in that really.
+14706,1,Horrible,"The images are cheap and cartoony - you can get better clip art on Microsoft Word. So lame is this product, that there was nothing suitable to make decent Christmas cards. I'll try Hallmark - maybe they'll have classier stuff."
+14707,2,Added Security,Hadn't had any problems with my shed up north but wanted to beef up security a bit.Excellent product!! Like it a lot.
+14708,2,Worth reading,"The introductory section is a little advanced for someone who does not possess a strong knowledge of Frence history. However, it is the best account of Napoleon's public life that I have read."
+14709,2,A LIVE CLASSIC!!,"This album, with all its mystery (recorded all over the universe-when? where? what line up? ) came well after the fact and first off serves to remind us that this was (is?) one of the greatest rock bands of all time. Every song is top shelf and even as a two disc live set, leaves many of the classic tracks off, in itself a testament to the quality of the material this band produced.As a live album it serves well the legacy of their performances that were always memorable if not classic.All in all, an incredible album and a must for any rock fans collection"
+14710,2,The genius- the EARLY years,"What great stuff. There are 3 approx. 1 hr sets of skits, taken from the original BBC Benny Hill show which ran from 1955-1968. All eps are in B&W, with some VERY noticeable noise and a sqiggle or 2. Does it take away from the enjoyment of the DVD? HELL NO! Remember people, this was a tv variety show from the 50's to mid-late60's. Not too many studios kept up their libraries of past shows, especially with the BBC, since Benny left them at the height of his popularity to join Thames tv. Buy this. It's nostalgic, funny and a rollicking good time."
+14711,2,Quick & Easy,"I read the reviews for this DVD before I'd actually purchased it and I LOVE IT! I have other yoga videos, but I love Ellen and she's a great teacher. But over the course of one week, you will definitely see results, NO JOKE. But this only comes with eating right and doing it CONSISTENTLY. I definitely recommend this and it fits into my time well, being I work full time. The reason why Pilates works is because it focuses on the smaller muscles and tones from there. This is a great video though...I'll recommend it to those who are just getting started."
+14712,1,Carbon Fiber Razr Cover,I did not like the way it fit my phone. I have bought another cover since which fits much better. The cut outs for the viewing window and camera lenz do not match very well even thought the cover is snapped in place and can not be adjusted. The buttons on the side of the phone are difficult the actuate with the cover in place. Not a good buy at all.
+14713,2,OF Mice and Men,"A classic, as always. In the today world of teaching tolerance and differences, this remains a good one to use in the classroom."

+14715,1,"More ugly and negative info from a ""fiction"" creator","This is mostly nonsense an ugly loose ""facts."" I know Irish Traveller families in the East and Midwest, and you could not find more honest tradesman and caring neighbors toward non-Travellers.What a poorly written exercise, as well.There are certainly better examples of American Irish Travellers culture written in the last year or two."
+14716,1,self distructing,I got this thing last year at this time and have only used it a few times for fruit smoothies. The frozen fruit must have been too much for it! The turning spindal sheered off. It's only plastic under the steal post.
+14717,1,Wrong Author on the Item!!!,"This one does not match any of the problems in my Geometry Text Book, the problems are good but totally different from what i was expecting."
+14718,1,Awful fiction,"Seriously, did someone even edit this thing? So, Satan, who is not the same as Lucifer, is talking in ""Elizabethan"" English at first, then just a bit later, he's using modern speech. He doesn't even attempt to go back into Elizabethan when Beelzebub continues to speak to him in that fashion. And why would they speak differently if they were both living in the same lifetime?The owl, Ariel, could have been funny speaking in couplets had those couplets actually been well-structured or if Brust had presented them as purposely ridiculous.Ugh! This whole book was just such a mess of potentially good ideas utterly destroyed. I feel like this book is the result of a tragically long chain of people going along with Brust because they felt bad telling him his story was awful, and we got stuck with an absolute joke of a tale so full of plot holes, bad dialogue, and lackluster characters that should only be found on an obscure fantasy fan fiction website.PUKE"
+14719,1,Don't waste your money if you want buy C330,"I have bought a GPS StreetPilot C330 navigator which it have provided a adapter in the box. Anyway, according to their suggestion, I bought this adapter at the same time. I found it can not connect with my navigator. So this adapter is useless. if you want to buy C330, do not waste your money on it."
+14720,2,As good as the old days!,"Thank you Deicde for making some of the best Death Metal ever. This CD is one of the heaviest and most talented I have ever heard. Morrissound ROCKS !! I know you guys are my pals and all but I am still blown away by your music. Thanks for all the great songs. Thanks for believing in the music and never giving up. Deicide's music has affected many peoples lives and that will make Deicide immortal. Please never quit guys! DEICIDE !!R.I.P. Chuck Shuldiner, may the Tampa Death Metal scene never die !"
+14721,1,CAN IT BE WORSE?,"I purchased over a dozen & ONLY ONE still works. The others worked at the beginning but never recharged by shaking them or if they did, the light was dimmer that a wrist watch! As far as I am concerned, this is garbage material!"
+14722,2,Great bang for your buck,"A lot of tents this size are fairly easy to set up, but I have to say that this is one of the easiest. I set it up at 2am, in the pitch dark...and it took me less than 10 minutes. Enough said.Some other great features: the sun/moon roof is great for ventilation and a view of the stars, the mesh pockets and mesh net at the top and conveniently located, and the tent withstands heat pretty well.Overall, I'm extremely satisfied!!!"
+14723,1,L?,What happenned I like LL but not this one maybe 2 hits and one is not that Garbage Headsprung....why would you try to go club thats not what you are known 4 so why try Dont waste youre money like I did If I would have been smart I would have just downloaded this!
+14724,2,Good value,This product has several features I appreciate: each phone can be set with a separate ringtone; used as an alarm clock; phone books can be transferred to any base. Despite the base phone having brief bouts ofstatic this product is a lot of bang for the buck.
+14725,2,FUN FUN FUN!,"The movie is great fun for all ages and the writers seem to have an ""inside line"" into kid's brains. The characters talk and act like young people act today and there is a bit of encouragement for any youngster with a handicap. The best news, however, is the second disc which not only contains another movie, it has numerous activities that are truly fun and worthwhile for anyone with a computer and a color printer. Lots of ""arts amd crafts"" but also short cartoons about ""Viking"" olympics and a ""test"" you can take to determine what type of Viking you would be. This test is surprisingly accurate collating the answers and choosing one of the Viking characters as well as assigning you a Viking name. I,for example will now be known ""as Olaf the Fastalker"" and BOY is that name acurate for me. Just buy it for the sheer enjoyment but be sure to get both disks."
+14726,1,"'Tis poorly written, 'tis true","If in every section 10% of the paragraphs would have been cut, if Wrox press would have used a spell checker, and if an editor would have been allowed in the building, it's possible that I would have been able to focus on the content. My head is still dizzy from shaking it back and forth while reading this book.The author does seem like a nice guy. Better luck next time, Mark."

+14728,2,NOT TO BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY,"THIS IS JUST A ALL AROUND FUN MOVIE FROM START TO FINISH.THE COVER SAYS IT ALL, JUST LOOK AT IT BEFORE YOU GIVE THIS FLIK A BAD REVIEW. COMEDY,ACTION,GOOD ACTING,A STORY,GOOD EFFECTS,SOME HORROR,AND GOOP,TO ME MAKES FOR JUST A FUN MOVIE TO WATCH."
+14729,1,The book was less than good,"I was new and accidently bought 2 books instead of one, and couldn't do anything about it, because it was a private buyer. I tried"
+14730,2,Crash,"Great book, I couldn't put it down. It's an awesome book about a boy John ""Crash"" Coogan. He related his whole life to football which I think is a pretty good way to live. So next time your in a library you should defiantly get this book."
+14731,1,Suncast review,"The product is flimsy and not waterproof, does not snap closed and looks like it will not last......I am very disappointed!!"
+14732,1,All 4 horse shoes broken with in 32 days,"Made in china. Cheap material. We used the first two only on the first day. One broke. Took another out, both broke. Now the 4th one broke. Literally have not used these for a full day and they are all broken.Surprised to learn it is complicated to make a quality set of horseshoes. Of course by the time I came online, its too late to return the item."
+14733,2,Wow,"This album by shoegazers Slowdive is, in my opinion, an overlooked masterpiece. With some help from Brian Eno, Slowdive created a lush yet stark collection of subtle pop hooks and synth experimentation. It is unfortunate that MBV's Loveless seems to outshine everything else from the 1990s shoegazing scene when it comes to praise and recognition. Albums such as Souvlaki often get left behind.I enjoy the dreamy aura surrounding this album. Songs like ""Allison"" can get stuck in your head for days. There is much creative playing on the synths throughout. Bass work is excellent. Overall, I guess one can classify this great album as a dream pop album...one of the very best.The added bonus EP is great as well. The beat-heavy ambient electronic tracks are a pleasure to listen to. The band's cover of ""Some Velvet Morning"" is top-notch."
+14734,2,The O.C. - The complete Fourth Season,This being the final. seems like such a shame not to continue with more episodes. The acting is fun with a great cast. It will be missed.
+14735,1,To be and to have DVD,"Unfortunately the DVD I received was a region 1 DVD, and could not be played i Denmark, which I informed you about, and after som exchanges of mail you very kindly arranged a refund to my account of the purchase price and I have bought the same DVD from another source, although I probably could have bought a usable DVD from Amazon in the UK, but this information was never relayed to me. I only have to live with the cost of importing the DVD into Denmark, about the purchase value of the DVD, but every experience costs money, normally.So thank you for your service in this matter.Best regardsPeter Daugbjerg"
+14736,1,Ugh! I Hate It!!!!!,"Jamie Foxx's single ""Unperdictable' is one grim reminder that it's better for most actors and actresses to stick to their to the on-screen exploits and not venture into the realm of music. When I heard it for the first time,I felt an overwhelming sense of exasperated repulsion and how I got myself through this track the second time,only I can tell. ""Unpredictable"" is miles away from being a noteworthy song,and on certain occasions youeven doubt its authenticity as a song. This is the title-track of the Oscar winning actor's second album of which I haven't listened to any other song. But if the title-track is going to be so repulsive,one can easily guess what the other songs are going to be like."
+14737,2,Excellent Resource for Biblical Studies,"I do not even remember where I purchased this book at but it has been an invaluable tool for both OT and NT studies in my pursuit of understanding the ancient wisdom traditions. The title of the book can be pleasantly deceiving. Crenshaw goes well beyond the wisdom tradition found in the biblical books of Ecclesiates, Psalms, Proverbs, and Job. He takes a broader perspective and includes apocrapha writings as well as Egyptian and Mesopotamian literature. I have found this book to be a very thorough, concise, and well orgainized book, much appreciated for students working under time constraints. This book has proven to be invaluable for exegesis of both OT and NT passages that make reference to ancient wisdom traditions. It is simple to read and has a great biblography that aids in indepth study of the word."
+14738,1,comfortable but with problems!,"I feel comfort to try this machine.But three problems.first, it makes too much noisy.second, the machine is too big.third, according to the instruction, two rolling nodes and a pumice stone should be found in the box with the foot spa machine. But I did not find them."
+14739,1,Big let down,"This sprinkler is not worth the money. It is difficult to adjust, the plastic parts do not stay in place and break easily. I used this item about 4 or 5 times before it became totally useless."
+14740,2,BEAUTIFUL MUSIC,"This is one movie sound track I cannot get enough of. James Newton Howard has really done some amazing work here. He has done other soundtracks including ""DYING YOUNG"" and several others. I can hear his sound and know it is him before I even look at the writer of music. This music sets the mood for relaxing the morning away. As I sit and read on a Sunday morning this has become my favorite music to read to...a perfect way to start a sunday..........I have been listening to this since the day it came out......GREAT"
+14741,1,Didn't know what it took to change it.,I didn't realize the old battery pack was soldered onto the circuit board. I thought I could just take the dead batteries out and replace with the new ones.Instead I had to unsolder the terminal strips and then solder the replacement battery pack terminal strips in place.That fact should be noted in the description.BR
+14742,2,Good Stuff!,It always strikes me as funny when so called fans of a certain artist complain when they do not sound a certain way... Personally these people are not fans and never were. All those people care about is a particular sound and if they do not get it they start to moan and complain. Guess what folks? The point of being a musician is to grow and expand.... To me it is readily apparant to point out those that were able to change and remain fresh enough to remain and those that were not able to change and fade into the background and be forgotten after 5 years.... Don't believe me? Take a look through your music collection and think about who is and who is not around any more....Ok Ok...musicians that died get a pass...I am talking about those that were pretty much one hit wonders and flashes in the pan....You know who I am talking about....
+14743,1,Business Etiquette Mastery,"A very disappointing book. Certainly overpriced. Shame on me for not taking the time to read the other customer reviews which also gave it the lowest rating. The text layout, content and hand-corrected errors fall far short of what the title promises."
+14744,2,This is an excellent book about surviving the downs in life,This book was personally very uplifting. I would recommend this to anyone who is facing a crisis in their life and needs a conversation to help them work through issues. It explains how adverse circumstances affect people and what steps can help you cope better and better understand your circumstances. I would strongly recommend this!
+14745,2,Good game...,This is an entertaining game. The only launch game I still own and pop in from time to time. More than I can say for the extremely overrated Halo.
+14746,1,Bought as a gift.,"I do not care for this movies, yet do not judge it based on my opinion. It was bought as a gift for a friend who loves it."
+14747,1,bad latin rhythms but USA aerobic steps,This is a joke workout. We do not recommend you buy it.A Latin rhythm workout. Ok maybe it has some really bad latin rhythms but the workout is a pure USA aerobic workout. Justbecouse you name some USA aerobic steps with latin dance names does not make it a latin dance workout.This video is a real disappointment.The aerobic workout itself is a very good length. But do not think it has anything really to do with latin dance.Vanessa's Afro Brazilian Dance Workout with Vanessa Isaac has much more latin steps in it.
+14748,2,very detailed account using family letters and interviews,"I was thoroughly enchanted with this book as it added details to stories I already had read about. Having read just about everything about the man, it was nice to see a large volume like this. Written by someone who had first hand knowledge of B.P., it is somewhat less than objective in parts, however, any fan of this incredible hero will undoubtedly love it. It is a fairly easy read and one which holds a special place in my Scouting library.Scouter Mike Reid Montreal, Canada"
+14749,1,"A Pamphlet, not a Book","I dawdled over breakfast and finished this by the third cup of coffee.I could comment on the author's predictions, but in truth they are quite unremarkable. This book simply lists ""this happened, then this other thing happened."" No plot, no characters, no descriptions of battles that never were. The Eastern Front is dealt with in less than a hundred words. The Holocaust gets even fewer.I have no real complaint, save value-for-money. If you need something to read over breakfast you might like this."
+14750,1,Pain in the a*# to put together!,"We have the Burley Solo and we love it as a bike attachment, so naturally we figured it would be better to get the jogging kit instead of buying another stroller. While it gets the job done, it is such a hassle to put the jogging attachment on. I run with my 1 year old after dropping off my oldest at school so i have to take it apart to get it in and out of the car. It takes me about 20 min at least to get it on. It gets jammed sliding the attachment on and I always smash my finger popping up the caddy! I get so frustrated sometimes it makes me want to forget about running!"
+14751,2,A epic classic,"Between Manzanera's so-sweet guitar and MacCormick's bass playing, this album rocks. I still have my original 801 Live LP, recorded it onto cassette and spent years looking before finding the CD here on Amazon. One of my altime favorites, much played in this house...maybe now, I can try to figure out guitar tabs for Diamondhead.Well worth the 10.98 I payed."
+14752,2,lines you never forget,"""And I don't like the panties drying on the rod"" is a classic. Dreyfus is in his element popping off one liners, but Quinn Cummings was a delight as Paula's wise beyond her years daughter."
+14753,1,Don't waste your time on this edition!,"As other reviewers have pointed out, this particular Kindle version is broken: any passages in the original which appeared in italic type have failed to be transcribed, leaving large gaps in the narrative, especially at the beginning.Therefore I rate this edition one star."
+14754,1,Poorly Manufactured,"ZERO Stars. Within six month of purchasing, the faucet attachment failed. Had it returned and replaced when the chrome began to fall off weeks after it was installed. Returned and replaced it. The third has failed, it leaks when the switched to faucet flow and does not completely flow through filter in filter mode. This filter system is junk. It raises the question whether the filters work at all leaving us with contaminated water. Any positive reviews are probably from the marketing department at PUR."
+14755,2,Brilliant!,"Many other reviewers have probably covered the plot and characters, so I won't waste space by reiterating it here. I just want to say how wonderfully interesting this book was: I wasn't able to put it down.I didn't loathe any characters (strange for me) and had fallen in love with several of them by the end of the story. This book will not waste your time like so many others do: you will go back and reread it over and over again, just as I have."
+14756,2,Popularity Contest,"If one more person writing a review says, ""should have sang"" I will scream! ""Should have SUNG,"" folks. Awful grammar is alive and well.We all know AI is a popularity contest and the best never wins, but this was a good compilation of songs. I enjoyed everyone on this CD, except for Mikalah's awful rendition of ""God Bless The Child."""
+14757,1,100% fake creed cologne dont buy it.,"I just got the cologne and is 100% fake, it burnt my skin and it has a very strong smell of alcohol, you should let people know that what you are selling is a replica. I have been using Creed for 2 years and I know the difference. I want a refund to be made to my credit card and have the box shipped back to you as soon as possible. Never buying anything again from your company."
+14758,1,Do not leave the package at the front door,Your carrier Laseship left my package at the front door and is missing now.How can I complain this situation?And how can I get back my stuff?This is very disappointing.
+14759,2,I really enjoy reading this book!,"Since I'm not a native English speaker, I started serious reading about 6 months ago. This book is by far the only book that can make me keep reading and don't want to put it down. And the only book that makes me burst in to tears sitting in the Starbucks. I highly recommended."
+14760,1,Why Bother Selling This One!!!!,"I totally agree with the guy before me! This was awful. I think the one part that bugs me the most is you can't rotate the camera angles. That is really irritating because it seems like you need to during game play!! Very boring game, and the graphics could be better...I Don't Recommend This Game!!!!!!"
+14761,1,How can this be rated 5*,"Acting good/very good - Ben Kingsley does a great job of keeping you in the film BUT what an appalling, depressing and unlikely tale. The ending was bizarre and painful.This had the makings of something interesting, with plenty of possibilities but at somepoint the writer decided everything must be dark, deep and awful."
+14762,1,The connectors are weak,"The connectors at each end are made of cheap material and do not have a large flat, hex surface from which to place your fingers and twist. I have other cables that have a hex connector with a flat surface about 3/8 of an inch that are easy to turn. The cable works however, just difficult to twist on / off which I have done several times because of various reasons."
+14763,2,Price Lovers NEED this!!!,"This set is GREAT!! If you are a Vincent Price Lover as I am, this is a MUST have. I already had a couple of these movies on single DVD's, but it was worth the $19.49 I paid for the additional movies I have not seen.Wonderful quality, clean pictures and great sound. Madhouse is wonderful as it has one of my all-time fav's Peter Cushing. Nice to see Vince and Pete together in a movie.Very nice product, a couple movies I hadn't seen that are very very good. Take it from me, if you are a Vincent fan, this is a marvelous set to have!~Old movie lover"
+14764,1,Star Wars Episode 1 - The Fuzzy Menace,The Prologic Sound Track is very good. I wish I could say the same for the video quaility. The colors are washed out and the picture is grainy. It's below average when compared to other video tapes. The ending credits are so fuzzy it's difficult to read them.I should have held off for the DVD. This wasn't worth it. :(
+14765,1,Popsicle mold,The popsicle molds are very large - too large for young children. I bought this product so that I could make popsicles for my young (1 1/2 to 7 yrs. old) grandchildren. The popsicles turn out to be as large as those one would buy from an ice-cream truck. I couldn't tell from the picture what size the molds were. Sizing information in the write-up would have been helpful.
+14766,1,Tries too hard-,"A lame attempt at hyper-cuteness. One of the strengths of the original Flatland was its timelessness, and universality, even with its topical satire. This sequel is dumbed down to the point of being nearly unreadable. Maybe this will seem quaint in a hundred years- I can wait. If it's ever made into a film, Moon Zappa would be ideal- ""like, fer shure."""
+14767,2,Informative,I learned a great deal reading this and was sometimes quite surprised by revelations. Especially pleased to learn that at least 4 of the presidents were informed by my own religious background!
+14768,1,"Ponderous, dull, self-absorbed, metaphysical BS.","It took months to slog through this yawner because I alternately fell asleep or found somthing far more interesting to read, which wasn't a difficult task."
+14769,2,it works...but,"It works great. Better than the little adapter-like transformer I previously had -- that one kept getting really hot.My only complaint is that, of the two plugs on the thing, one was not properly built into the box; part of it sticks out. Poor workmanship. Luckily, I will not be using that plug. There is also a plastic piece which is freely rattling around inside the box."
+14770,1,"Eat my dust, then vomit it up","The only thing holding up this movie is the legs of the costar Christopher Norris(yes, she's a girl),which is why I gave it 1 star. A half star for each leg. I recommend it to anyone in search of a (...) car chase film that uses fast motion technology and third grade dialogue. Sorry, this one's not worth it at half the price. I shudder at the thought of watching the other Ron Howard movie (GTA)I bought when fulfilling my dream of owning every car chase movie ever produced. Don't do it, stay away."
+14771,2,Beach music,My favorite book and author. I reread it every 4 years. It is like an old friend. Pat Conroy's cook book is also great
+14772,1,disappointing,"I bought this garlic press because it looked sturdy, and although on Amazon it says that the handles are plastic filled, in the store it looked like it was all metal. I had it for a couple months, and was never really very happy with it. The part that squishes doesn't fit all the way into the part that holds the garlic, so hardly any garlic would get crushed. I finally got fed up, and tried putting in two cloves at once, which is when I discovered the handles were plastic. They snapped right off! Do yourself a favor, get a slightly more expensive, all metal garlic press."
+14773,2,Love this pan,"I cook a lot and I'm glad that I bought this pan. It's great for using on the stove and in the oven and it cooks meat well. I hate washing pots and pans and this pan has helped me never to have to wash again. I scrape it after cooking, coat with canola oil, and then store it in the oven. Whatever you cook in it will help it keep its seasoning and you won't need to put a lot of effort into maintaining the pan if you cook at least once a week with it. I use mine nearly every night!"
+14774,1,Horrible,This is one of the worst books I have ever read. Steve Martin should never stray from acting. I was highly disappointed. I would not recommend this book to anyone.
+14775,1,RIP OFF!!!!!!!,HALF OF THE CDS TO THE AUDIO BOOK I BOUGHT WERE MISSING AND THE ONES THAT I DID RECEIVE WERE DAMAGED.
+14776,2,Can't Wait for Season 2 on DVD,This show is too funny. Kenny is rude and crude. If you like Danny Mcbrides humor you will love this show.
+14777,1,Boring!,"I couldn't wait for this movie to end! It was billed as ""edge of your seat suspense thriller."" I was never once on the edge of my seat! Sam Neill is usually a great actor, but not in this one. The movie begins with a scene of Neill being told his wife and 2-year-old son were in an accident and the son died. This tragic scenario, which Neill responds to blandly, bears no relation to the rest of the movie, except to explain how tranquillizers got on the boat they were on - they played a minor role in one instance. The plot was not for a moment even remotely believable - Kidman pretends to fall in love with a man who is attacking her to get him off his guard, and then has sex with him. She goes from tormented and hysterical to totally in control like someone threw a switch in her brain. There was no excitement, no redeeming message, no emotional drama. Quite frankly, I didn't seem to care one bit what was going to happen to any of the characters. I was bored and glad it was over!"
+14778,2,Was well please with all the books I received.,Would recommed this product to any one seeking to provide quality guidance and Christian education for teen girls. Highly recommeded!
+14779,1,Description is vague,"The Besseys appear to be good quality. And I have not used them yet. My problem comes from the description. They DO NOT have 12"" jaw capacity or even 8"" jaw capacity as stated. They barely have 6"" useable jaw clamp area. Not happy here. I'll probably return them."
+14780,2,Better and Better,"While I'm much more a Jerry Garcia fan than a Dead fan, I've listened to them for almost forty years and to Danny Carnahan for 25. And I've been listening to Celtic music since before it was called Celtic- the first time I heard pipes as a child I swung my head around in recognition. These WTD are pure enjoyment; I dance to them, cook to them, clean to them and drive to them. Blending Irish and Dead is as natural as whisky and water and just as smooth. They both are beautifully crafted and chock full of talent. It's rare that I feel privileged to have a CD of a group's music- and I'll be happy to hear about the next!"
+14781,1,A Hasbeen,"I recently purchased a 10"" and 12"" Farberware Millennium pans. Right out of the box either of these pans nonstick surface worked. I followed all the instructions and kept the heat on low and didn't use any cooking spray. I had to scrape my eggs out of the pan.To make matters worse,there's no 800 numbers to Farberware so you could speak to someone. The only way you can contact them is to set up an account with them. Farberware was a name you could trust in cookware. In my opinion their a hasbeen. Your better off spending your cash at Walmart. Their pans cheaper, and perform a lot longer."
+14782,2,People might just value each other if they read this book!,"My sons(ages 10 and 13) and I love this book. It combines a complex interweaving of fantasy and history with characters we quickly came to love. There is hope, after reading it, that diverse peoples might just come to love and value each other in our lifetime!We plan to read this one every Christmas!"
+14783,2,Good Deeds,I went to the movies to see this show and was very pleased to see Tylyer Perry doing other things besides Medea. I can not wait for his new movies to come out Alex Cross. I own every play and Dvd he has made..

+14785,2,An angry hate-filled masterpiece,"I just love this album. It's so angry and aggressive that it makes a perfect soundtrack to a bad day at the office. Imagine a combination of death metal, hardcore and Black Sabbath-esque stoner rock, all played very fast and brutal, and then you've got an idea behind the Ragin Speedhorn sound. The sheer heaviness means this isn't an album that everyone will enjoy, but if you like bands like Iron Monkey and Earthtone9, or just fast heavy music, then I can guarantee that you will like this."
+14786,1,"Nowhere near the greatness of Romero,s classics.","I was interested in seeing this film after reading numerous reveiws about it on the internet.Some going as far as saying it was the best Zombie film of all time.So i rented it expecting alot.To say i was disappointed would be an understatement.Where to start,first the dubbing,it was horrible and really bought the film down.Second it had to many spots in the movie where nothing happened and where flat out boring.This bothered me alot.It has good points,the zombie makeup are very good,better then dawn of the dead,but a nocth below day of the dead.Thats about all the good points,it just wasnt scary,it didnt give me that terryfing feeling that Dawn or Day gave me.If you already have seen the Romero classics then give this one a try.Just dont expect much."
+14787,2,Wisdom in a Miniature Package,"This booklet is for everyone, but a perfect gift for new graduates. It is full of quotes from writers, educators and scholars. Easy, short quotes from many famous commencement speeches, makes it readable any time for relaxation. The tastefully done fun pictures add to the effectiveness of the book. The inspiring statements are about the accomplishments of the graduate and the life-path waiting for them. Thoughtful statements that will keep the young generation assured, plan life for the long term with courage and faith, learn from mistakes, not lose the lessons learned, maintain a sense of humor, and move on with individuality, compassion for others, and make the best out of oneself.Here is a great book of encouragement for graduates and all others."
+14788,1,Disappointing!,"Such profound material . . I was wondering how he would end it and as far as I am concerned, he was wondering too. For all the puzzle-solving, intellectual highballing that he puts into his characters, at the end, nothing. It was a page turner, and I only wish there was something of substance as I turned to the last page."
+14789,2,Mom Bracelet,I bought this bracelet for my mother-in-law's birthday. She loves it and thinks it's nice how it just says mom over and over. It's surprising quality for the price and sure to make any mom happy.
+14790,2,Outdoor light timer,This timer was priced well and works great for our sidewalk lights. You can set it for whatever times you want them to come on and go off.
+14791,2,A real life experience broughrt to life.,"Buskowskis account how ""Hank"" wrote the screenplay for the famous movie is very Buskowski. Funny, real, and very well written. If you like reading ""Buk"" and have/nt read this, DO IT !"
+14792,2,gob smacked,"What a family. You have to admire the jewish way of making money from the dirt under your fingernails.....True drama,in capital letters. The story is riveting ,full with revolting characters .Cheating, stealing ,trampling over every possible human emotion and body to get to the box under the bed with the lucre. Family, who cares, stuff them, look after number one .He loved his wife, poor thing,all she wanted was nice fingernails and the occasional facelift. But then to have to deal with the s***ty kids, ungrateful,greedy bunch ,getting to big for their boots. Well , Dad had to put them into their place . Unfortunately,he taught them to well from his own life-script.Marvin & Larry ,you did a fantastic job in getting it down on paper. The book had me curled up in my chair, skipping meals and ignoring the alarm clock. Five stars ***** is way to few ,loved, loved ,loved the book :)"
+14793,1,Save your money unless you know nothing about trading,Nothing special...read this cheesy manual and it is nothing new or special. It is simply a momentum trading manual at a high price. Get a book encompassing a broad range of methods for swing trading and you will be much better off.
+14794,1,Don't waste your time,"After two chapters I was tempted to put this book down and forget about it. But I finished it with hopes that I wasn't wasting my time. By the way of totally disregarding marriage vows and committing adultry to confessions of a past abortion to doing drugs, I was disgusted with this book. The author attempts to make things that are wrong in society acceptable to make her weak character seem more human. If you have a high moral character this is not the book for you."
+14795,1,The sound don't work.,"After Owning this TV (Phillips 27PT41B 27"" with 10Watt dbx stereosound)for such a very short time. , I can truly say I like the TV but it has only been a month and the sound on my TV just stop playing. I am very upset that this has happened after I have paid my money. If someone can tell me what to do I would be very happy. I wanted to settle this via phone but I was not given a number in which to call."
+14796,1,A Bit Disappointed,"The Title of the book does not clearly define the pages that follow. I am disappointed in the way the book was setup, and content thereof. I expected the information to be more inspiring than it is. But, its an okay Devotional."
+14797,1,Only for those who have time to spare,"This book is nothing but a time-waster. Characters have no names and the narrator is never clearly stated. The only thing that was clear was the meaning of the title. Other things, like the last chapter, are poorly done and leave saying ""huh, what was i reading?"" ."
+14798,1,stuff,"Artemis Fowl is great and here are a few reasons why. First, Artemis Fowl deals With ""Super Technology"". A total ""must have"" in my kind of book. Artemis Fowl has this because of a centaur named ""Foaly"". ""Foaly ""Is an absolute genius when it comes to technology and inventions. His inventions include the Time stopper, the Retimager , fairy Hummingbird Wings, and much more. Artemis Fowl is truly awesome. Another Reason why Artemis Fowl is a major favorite of mine is because of a 12 year old boy ""Artemis"" that is a genius and outwits every person who try's to outsmart him. For example , Artemis is just about to be "" Bio-bombed"", when he finds a way to save him and his friends by simply taking a sleeping pill in a glass of wine. A third and final reason why Artemis Fowl is so grand is because it is magical, exciting, funny, and got me back into reading. Thank you Eoin Colfer for making such a magnificent work of art. In conclusion these are just a few reasons why Artemis Fowl is my favorite book."
+14799,2,A cornerstone in brass-band funk,I first got this album in 1992. I was immediately hooked. This album is a cornerstone of music that the dirty dozen brass band have helped bring back to the spotlight. One of my all time favorites.
+14800,1,CROSLEY CR248 SONGWRITER CD RECORDER,"THIS MACHINE SEEMS TO WORK O.K. , BUT THE SUPPORT FROM THE MFG. STINKS. THEY CHARGE 9.95 FOR 12 PLASTIC 45 INSERTS THAT YOU CAN PURCHASE 60 FOR $7.00 ON E-BAY. THEY OFFER A BRUSH AND REPLACEMENT NEEDLES FOR OTHER MACHINES, BUT NOT FOR THIS MODEL. THE SUPPORT IS VERY IMPORTANT WHEN YOU ARE PAYING SUCH A PRICE. SOMEONE NEEDS TO NOTIFY THEM OF THIS FACT.LEN SCHIFF"
+14801,2,A Glimpse into a Bizarre World,Mao lived a life that appears to have insulated him from much of the destructive consequences of his ideas. He appears to have spent much of his leisure time fornicating with young women and sleeping. This first hand account really gives you the inside scoop on Mao's behavior.I had an old friend who many years ago recommended that we invite all the communist leaders to New York for a big meeting--and then arrest all of them. A civilized world would have terminated Mao after the Long March.
+14802,2,Play that Funky music???,"Is play that funky music on the cd??? I really want the cd , but im not sure if this song is on it. Best song eva! Please help!! Luv me"
+14803,1,YELLOW no better than regular halogen lights,These are not WHITE as advertised I bought hi pro for the car and these for our truck. the difference is literally night and day. these being night. I had normal everyday lights in the truck before and they gave off more light than these. I will NEVER buy these again. I have in fact taken a picture on my phone so I can make sure I never do this again.
+14804,1,A sure headache creator,"Don't go for it.Everybody whoever is going to buy this album need to make sure what exactly he is going to have instead of looking at overall reviews/rating and purchasing on pulse.This album is full of heavy western metallic music which is sure recipes for headache. All the tracks are almost monotonous and sound like each other. No variety of instruments either. If your ears are for heavy metallic western music then you probably can give it a try. On the other hand if you prefer the music which breaks physical barrier and enter into the soul and relax or soothe you, then this album is definitely a 'No Go'.I heard it only once and was full of headache within 5 minutes of listening to it.So again Beware Don't go for it."
+14805,1,A Disappointment,This is a beautifully made bike but is too small for my 18 month old grandson. His legs are too bent for him to be able to move the bike with his feet. Perhaps you should have different heights available.
+14806,2,colors vary,"The package came on time and in new condition, everything the seller said it would be. Just beware that colors really vary. We order two packs and neither were, to my taste, cute. However, the baby doesn't care :)"
+14807,1,I don't get it!,This book is confusing if you've read almost all the Thoroughbred books. First of all it says that Melanie is the daughter of mike's sister. I don't remember them mentioning Mike having any brothers or sisters. And why did Samantha move to Irland? In Samantha's Journey Samantha was going to be a trainer at Whitebrook farm and marry Tor. It's like this new writer has no Idea what TB books are all about. Almost all the old characters just disapeared. I hope someone does something about this soon.
+14808,1,dissapointing,"I was so surprised to find out that these towels were not very absorbent at all, especially after all the reviews. I bought hese for my son, for his apt. when I went to visit , I was quite surprised they turned out to be so nonabsorbent."
+14809,1,Watch failed within two months,"I purchased a watch that was advertised as 'BRAND NEW with original packaging and manufacturer's warranty'. The watch failed after less than two months. There is no way to call or e-mail Time Zone Plus directly - and no website. And to try to contact Time Zone Plus through Amazon has been useless. My only other option is to go through the watch manufacturer for the warranty work, but it costs money to send the watch in, and they require that the seller be an authorized dealer in order to do the warranty work. Is Time Zone Plus and authorized dealer? I wish I knew the answer, but it's impossible to reach them."
+14810,2,Hellooooo Sci-Fi,"As a person that likes to read a wide range of genre, I was very happy to find a book in the Sci-Fi section that not only held my attention but made me laugh, sigh, growl and finally, turn the last page with a feeling of sadness that the journey was over. My hats off to S. L Viehl for a book that was worth the time I put into reading it."
+14811,2,wow,"Phenomenal work. Takes us back to the origins of the blues and leaves us at the doorstep of hip hop, wondering what could be."
+14812,1,Not properly sized,I had to send this item back because the sizing was way off. Normally I wear a size 8 in easy spirit (I have many pairs of easy spirit shoes) These fit like a long and narrow 9 on my foot. They had to be returned. and I was out the shipping money.
+14813,2,Trance-inducing,"The Global Underground series started back in `97 I think and it played a very important role in elevating the quality of trance music. Before that, we were seeing some cheesy trance being mixed into CD`s and sold and on the other hand, some big tracks being the only forte of some CD`s. But GU, hiring the best DJ`s in the world, changed that trend somewhat. All the GU CD`s have been exceptional, with my personal favourite having been NY ... till now. GU 013 surpasses the already high quality standards of any GU cd upto date and sets a new high, and with it Sasha (always the best) comepels the others to raise their standards to his. If ever there was a CD from Global Underground that you had to buy ... it is this. I should know .. I have all of them."
+14814,1,Slow Cooker --NOT!,"I finally got around to reading the review on this ""slow cooker"". I'm so sorry I didn't check these reviews out before I bought this product last year. I thought the problem was me and my overly high expectations of what a slow cooker could do for a busy working mom. I thought I could put the ingredients to cook for eight hours and come home to a juicy, home cooked meal. The appliance cooks so hot that you cannot leave it unnattended for over an hour. For spaghetti sauce, it boils within a half an hour on LOW and will burn if left to cook for the minimum setting of eight hours. I have better luck making my sauce on the stove top and letting it simmer on the lowest setting. At least on your stove top you have some control over the temperature. Do not buy this product unless you want to come home to a meal of chicken breasts that taste like baseballs. There is nothing slow about the cooking and you can give up on ""fix it and forget it""."
+14815,2,an amazing book,The authors have clearly done a tremendous amount of work to bring us this incredible resource. For anyone who has gone on a yeast free diet this is a real find. Even a kitchen klutz like myself is able to follow the recipes. There is an interesting variety of recipes that will be ones you'll be able to make and will want to make again and again.
+14816,2,Its the Deftones! What more cauld you ask for,Buy this record it falls into its own catagory of music!! Plus Maynard makes for one hell of a duet!!! Buy this if you like creative music!
+14817,1,.................,"usually jerry's scores for movies are priceless,(i.e. the other score for ""legend"")but rudy is a little bit too unoriginal and the feelings meant to be expressed seem much too""forced"" for my taste.it's ok as a weird sort of comedy album,I suppose,but from the main theme I was laughing because it's meant to be such a serious experience-but isn't!I think that only the biggest goldsmith efficianado could find joy in this cd.(.)"
+14818,2,Hillariously funny..,"I think ""Kick-Ass"" is a rare gem.. it's hilariously funny - in a truly disturbing way. It shows some very graphic violence (from a simply ""sword-through-chest"" to ""mobster-exploding-in-microwave-oven""), plays some nice music and is overall very see-worthy.It's well written and has a very solid cast of actors, old and young.I can highly recommend it, but beware, the violence and the crude language may scare the youngsters.. :)"
+14819,2,Speechless,"The Wanderer provides words for that feeling of being speechless. Combining a pleasing and talented instrumental base with the story of the man making sense of his thoughts, OAR was able to connect with all of those things that I have left unsaid and bring them to light. This is an amazing album composed by an extremely talented group. Purer than the other two albums, The Wanderer feeds off of emotion."
+14820,2,Blizzard does it again,"I'm only 3 or 4 hours into the game, and I'm addicted. Blizzard seems to do a quality job on all their games. This one seems to be a great game AND have great video between scenarios. I can't wait to play online - which is often more fun than the one-player scenarios."
+14821,1,Armband for shuffle - don't bother,"The iPod Shuffle is so small and light, you really don't need an armband. The Sporty Armband is about the size of a CD and could feasibly wrap around my arm twice. It is rather cheaply constructed, too. The Shuffle's nylon rope is sufficient to wear around your neck - don't bother with this armband."
+14822,2,"A warm and wonderful ""Winter Bossa"" album","It doesn't snow in Rio, but it does in a lot of other places in the world, which makes the idea of a warm and lovely ""Winter Bossa"" album a good idea. Lisa's 17th CD includes freshly updated bossa nova arrangements of classic Christmas carols, Brazilian holiday songs, and original material, sung in Portuguese and English. Highlights include ""Winter Wonderland"" (with arrangement by Steve Sacks), ""Let It Snow, Let It Snow, Let It Snow"" (with the famous Brazilian clarinet player Paulo Moura adding his special touch), ""Caroling, Caroling,"" and ""Um Anjo Do Ceu."" This CD is one of the best Brazilian/Bossa Nova style Christmas albums out there... a lovely and original work."
+14823,2,Our Cat Loves It,"This toy is great fun for the WHOLE family. Neville, our cat, always comes running when we start playing with it. He loves to push against it and make it play the sounds. My only complaint is that it makes the wrong sound for R. It says that R says /er/ but R actually makes the sound /r/. It's really difficult to say without a vowel, but you must or kids will it up pronouncing the word row, erow. That's just not right! Anyway, we love the Word Whammer and Fridge Phonics! If we need Neville to come and have his glucose level checked, we just start pushing letters and he comes rushing into the kitchen."
+14824,2,Marvelous Edition!,"I loved Troy the theatrical cut and absolutely love this new director's cut. It's more passionate, more blood, more power, more love, more everything. It looks and sounds absolutely stunning with 1080p/VC-1 video and Dolby TrueHD 5.1 audio. Beautiful crisp picture quality, a must for anyone's HD DVD collection. I highly recommend this epic motion picture."
+14825,1,Very Frustrating,"I ordered this scanner to replace an old one which was on it's last leg. I regret to say that the Microtek ScanMaker X12USL is easily the most difficult piece of hardware I've ever used. It took a long time to set up, then every time I tried to use it, it always gave me trouble. I must admit that I'm not the most computer literate person around, so I hired a computer guy to help. It took him an hour and a half to get things working. He was as baffled as I was. After he left, the scanner started acting up again. Since I had already thrown away the box and the packaging materials, I donated the scanner to the local high school. Hopefully they'll be able to figure it out.Note: I bought an Epson Perfection 1200U scanner next, and have not had any problems with it. It seems to work pretty good so far."
+14826,2,Great Movie - Tearjerker,The Help is a great movie - but I did not realize it was almost 3 hours long! Make sure you have the time to watch it.
+14827,2,"World Anabolic Review ""ROCKS""","This book is excellent for anyone who wants to know more about, is thinking about, or is doing steroids. It will answer all your questions from side effects to what dosages to take. Very good book."
+14828,2,A great book,This ia a great book. Tom brown was taught wildernes skills by an old Apache named Grandfather. This book is his story. It is the first of many of Tom's books on his adventures with grandfather and his best friend Rick.I highly recomend this book and all of Tom's books.
+14829,2,"Gas Burners for Forges, Furnaces, and Kilns","Very good book, it's a must as far as I can see for all begginers of Gas Forges, Furnaces and Kilns. It will even show a D.I.Y burner System great or sombody who wants to do a custom job Burner for themselfs or friend."
+14830,2,Best inexpensive bra for full figures,"I've been wearing this particular bra for years. They last a long time, even when you put them in the washing machine. They're also very supportive."
+14831,1,Don't bother,"I bought this before I went to law school and I felt it was a waste. You will be taught how you need to write in school to pass the exams, you don't need to read a book about how to do it. It is very simple, usually on your exams you have to show all sides rather than choose an argument, unless told otherwise."
+14832,1,Rod adds nothing to these classic tunes,"As someone else wrote in review, Rod sounds like he's singing to a karaoke track. The backing instrumental tracks in most cases, especially Have You Ever Seen The Rain sound like they were created by turning a tape recorder on and copying directly from the original song. Boring. Also on Day After Day, Rod's drummer uses identical fills at the identical spots Badfinger's drummer's played his. The album is very uninspired. However,it was clever of him to record It's A Heartache because most people compared Bonnie Tyler to Stewart when she released that tune yrs ago. This is the 1st Rod album I've bought since Sing It Again Rod and this is not even close to the quality of that release. As most people said, Rod has enough money. If he won't write or perform any new original material anymore, he should think about packing it in. He's had a nice run."
+14833,1,WHAT A HUGE LET DOWN,I have been a Jovi fan since 1984!!!! Can't believe how terrible this CD is. Wait for the next one maybe they will get back on track.
+14834,1,Indeed Iran is the problem,"The leftists are at it again. Blaming the US, Israelis and the west for the evils of their beloved regime in Tehran. Of course the Iranian regime is the main problem and obstacle to peace and security in the world. The leftists turn a blind eye on the crimes of their Mullahs and criticize the westerners for the misdeeds of their country. Of course, the Iranian people are the hostages of the international leftists and the criminal regime of Iran. I think a regime change in Iran will solve many problems. And the leftists will be upset if the Mullahs are gone."
+14835,2,Different,"Touching lightly on the historical charactors, Parker delves deep into the scarred and fetid remains of Wyatt Earp's heart. There isn't a penetrating re-opening of Wyatt's past but, rather, a very intimate look into the man's hidden demons, his love for family and hidden penchant for, however unintentional, causing pain to those closest to him.Parker hits a heavy blow to the traditional western with his relaxed narrative and dialogue driven story. As good, 'cept different, than any Spencer novel."
+14836,2,"It is not just ordinary rolling hills, the geology of Wisconsin is interesting!",As a non-scientist I enjoyed this book. It made me want to know more about the geology of Wisconsin and made sense of land formations I have seen on my drives through the state. Wisconsin is more than ordinary rolling hills. Nice pictures and diagrams. Background information and definitions especially helpful to review basic geology.
+14837,2,Great workout with great music,"I've been sweating to the oldies my whole life; when I was younger I would do it with my mom and now that I'm an adult I find that no other workout video is as fun and keeps me coming back like those from richard simmons. I bought this DVD to add to my rotation and I love it! It's my new favorite! It definately makes me sweat and the music is funner than ever, it makes you feel like your just dancing instead of working out. I highly recommend it!"
+14838,1,Pathetically laughable,"I used to be a massive fan, but it seems Janet's (once sparingly) sensual tracks over time have slowly escalated to trashy & lame. Every track on this album has the same theme. ""I want to undress you and... (Insert slutty chorus here)"". Time to deflate your ego Janet. Sex does not make a woman powerful.We heard her soft breathing and moaning on the last few albums. Surprise surprise! Here it is again.... & again & again & again. Very classyWelcome to rock bottom Janet."
+14839,2,Perhaps Remarque's best?,"If All Quiet on the Western Front is about those who died, The Black Obelisk is about those who survived. Ludwig has returned home to Germany after the war. He is a stonemason. The company's big order is for a monument to honour the small towns war dead: the black obelisk. The mode of the book is a gentle melancholy. Ludwig survived the trenches, most of his friends died, part of him died with them. Wise beyond his years, he sees how the German's fail to rise up from defeat. Instead they fall to petty bickering, thus setting the stage for the rise of nazism. Instead of being a tribute to those who fell, the black obelisk becomes an ominous pointer to what lies ahead."
+14840,2,It isn't as big as it appears,"The photography would lead you to believe you are getting a larger muddle. FYI, it is only 7 inches long. I was hoping for something to muddle in a pitcher. My bad for not asking."
+14841,2,Buzz to the Rescue,My son was Buzz lightyear this year- I couldn't have found a better costume! He loved it and was the hit of the kids and parents!Thanks for a great deal!
+14842,1,VERY POOR,The CDROM was full of errors and there was no way it could prepare anyone for the Oracle8 Upgrade test. It was a complete waste of money.
+14843,2,Good Solid Camera,"This is a good solid camera. I dropped it on the gravel (with the lens open) right off the bat, but other than a small ding and some scratches, the camera still works great! The picture quality is excellent and it's easy to use. The one button dock is super easy to use and charges the batteries at the same time. The only reason I am not giving it a 5 star rating is because few of the pictures taken at school functions have not turned out well at all - those pictures are dark and fuzzy. I think it has something to do with the red-eye setting on the flash, since that's the only time we have used that funtion and all other times the pictures are generally very high quality - some are incredible. We bought a 128MB memory card at the same time, which is definately the way to go - we have only filled it up once and had to use the 8mb card that came with it for additional pictures."
+14844,1,"SOME GOOD, SOME BAD","This cd shows, in my opinion, the reason Sammy Hagar was kicked out of the band. His vocals are scratchy and off-key. That aside, there are some good songs. ""Feelin"" & ""The Seventh Seal"" are both top-notch. However, this cd contains ""Big Fat Money,"" which is the worst song VH has ever done. I recommend this cd for diehards only."
+14845,2,Great cheap manual label embosser,"This is a great little label maker. It works just as you'd imagine, and has that retro funk the newer, more expensive label printers lack. It squeezes easily, but feels a little cheap.TIPS:Squeeze with just a tiny bit more force than you have to, to get the letter to show up perfectly.Always type a SPACE after the last letter so the space from the tape to the letter edge is the same on both sides.NOTE:There are a few common characters that this DOESN'T have, including: * & + % : ; ( ) [ ]The lack of parenthesis and colons means no emoticons. :(Anyone who scrapbooks, or is obsessed with organizing, should definitely have one of these."
+14846,2,Custom OCC Chopper,"this chopper goes pretty fast, i custom spraypainted the front rims blak and they look tite, i also got the OCC sign and spraypainted it onto the tank, i forgot wat its called but i also spraypainted the gray box that holds all the ellectrical stuff, blak, it looks baddass, and it rides smooth"
+14847,1,Not as good as his other Prey books,"This Lucas Davenport book is not nearly as exciting or gripping as most of his other books in the Prey series. The plot is too scattered, and Davenport's women problems seemed superficial and forced. It almost seemed to me like the relationship stuff was added as an overlayer in the hopes of reinforcing a loose and weak plot. The ending was very contrived and thus very disappointing."
+14848,2,good sequel,"No sooner do I search out this book in a used book store, do they finally reprint it! This book , while not as good as the first, is quite enjoyable. I hate Marshak and Culbreath, but they only edited this book and wrote one story. The story ""Surprise"" by Nichelle Nichols is a nice change of pace from space battles. Another good anthology"
+14849,1,Gordon McLendon,This book is wholly in error on basic facts. It was written after only a few interviews with people who did not know the subject well and who were not present at the events recounted. A total waste of money...even for a used book.
+14850,2,Matt Hoffmans Pro BMX / dudes,This game is very good. The tricks are so real. When I bought this game I did not know it would be this great. When your going to hit a jump it seems like you really know what your doing in real life. This game stinks really bad.
+14851,1,Another disappointment... :(,"The way this book is put togther is what leaves me feeling a bit ripped off. I feel the author and/or publisher owe me some money! At least one third of the book was copied over from manufacturer's free publications. If you want to read a list of available programming instructions contained within the language written about in the book just vist the mfg web site and save your money. And, Hex listings in the book! Give me a break! You can read what this book has to offer in under an hour! This book stinks..."
+14852,2,"New design, same old water pik","Well, it only took them about 30+ years to change the design of the water pik, which until recently was the same as when I was a kid. The new one is much more aesthetic. Mechanically, it does what it is supposed to. The storage container on tip is neat too. Both of my dentists recommend it, and I trust them, so go out and get one."
+14853,1,Nothing but banging noises,"That's all there is to this CD. Just one banging high BPM noises after another. Track after track. The mix is almost incoherent at times and all the track sound alike. There is simply no melodies to distinguish one track from another. No doubt Carl Cox is one of the most famous DJ's around the globe, but this CD makes him look bad. One star because it's Carl Cox and another star for the ""live"" effort."
+14854,1,TALENT SHOW LOSERS,"THIS BOLOGNA WOULD NOT EVEN QUALIFY A COVER BAND FOR HONORABLE MENTION AT A LOCAL HIGH SCHOOL...ELEMENTARY SCHOOL TALENT SHOW. HOWEVER, THIS DISC WOULD MAKE A GREAT COASTER FOR YOUR COFFEE TABLE...I THOUGHT THE DARK 90'S OF RUSH WERE GONE WITH THE RELEASE OF THE PROMISING VAPOR TRAILS...WITH THIS RELEASE THEY HAVE GONE BACK TO THEIR TEST FOR ECHO STATUS--THIS IS SAD, SAD, SAD- A COMPLETE WASTE OF TIME AND TALENT AND THIS ALBUM RANKS #1 AS MOST INDULGENT AND POMPOUS...WE DON'T CARE ANYMORE RUSH, BUT THANKS FOR THE COASTER. A BAND THAT HAS SPENT MOST OF THEIR CAREER ON THEMES OF ALIENATION HAS ALIENATED ALL THEIR FANS...DE DE DE DE DE YEA!"
+14855,1,I'm not impressed,"Nothing fancy to say here, it's not as reliable of a device as it's marketed as. I ordered it, I got it, I put it to use, and now it sits in a box with the rest of my unwanted toys. I use the Belkin desktop phone (F1PP010EN-SK) and couldn't be happier. Grab the Belkin phone when you see it on sale for about $59 and you'll do yourself a favor."
+14856,2,Not science fiction or technothriller but engineer fiction.,"Mr. Hickam gave me a sense of reality best expanded from the pages of a book. He asks the very practical question (he's an engineer) ""why did we stop?"" The Wright brothers and their associates didn't pack it up back in 1904. This kind of novel is important to expand ideas of what can be done. Rather than science fiction or techno-thriller I'd call it an innovative piece of engineering fiction."
+14857,1,A book worth not having,"I found this book of little or no use. When a buy a book that is this big (1180 pages) you think, ""Wow this thing is so big it must be the one."" I am more and more of a mind that programming books that are bloated are just poorly thought out. I would not recommend this book to anyone."
+14858,1,Flash drive may cease working...,"The general reviews for this device were positive and I read that Corsair flash drives were some of the best so I bought one back in November to use for my Xbox 360. It worked great until January when my data became corrupted and I had to reformat the drive. It started working again until a couple of weeks ago. This time, however, the device simply ceased working. I thought maybe it got corrupted again but when I plugged it into my computer it wouldn't register on it either. I tested plugging the device into my computer several times to make sure that it was not being recognized and sure enough, the flash drive wasn't recognized. As far as I'm concerned, this product is a piece of junk and I would HIGHLY recommend you avoid purchasing it. I hope this flash drive was a fluke but it seems like it's more of a trend."
+14859,1,Red Badge of what?,I REALLY DON'T LIKE THS BOOK. I HAD TO READ IT FOR MY 8TH GRADE ENGLISH CLAS AND..... UGH I HATED IT. CRANE IS A GOOD WRITER BUT.... THIS BOOK GOES ON AND ON AND IT GETS TO BE BORING!
+14860,1,Really bad adolscent attempt,This movie was really bad. It was a mixture of Scooby Do with Thelma and Nancy Drew. It was a very adolscent attempt at making a horror flick. The story was bad along with the acting and make-up of the zombies. I am one that likes B horror flicks and I give this an absolute Z. This movie was filmed like a bunch of high school students got together and made this flick. Stay away from this movie!!!!!!!!!!
+14861,1,Terrible Product,"This product isn't even worth reviewing except to say it is : 1)Unstable; 2) Non-intuitive; 3) A horrendous waste of money.Stay far, far, away from this product."
+14862,1,Horrible,"I ordered this product over a month ago, it took the company a month to let me know what I had ordered was out of stock then another two weeks for it to get to me.I love this cd, these guys are so talented! The disk was worth the weight!"
+14863,2,Touched,"Manny--if u are reading this, you are an inspiration! Props to you for a work filled with realism and emotion, and also for having the confidence and vision to lift your life into its proper glory! I haven't seen you in a long time, but I am quite proud from a distance! Keep it up, boy!"

+14867,1,UMMM...skip this garbage!!!,"This book is not what you would expect from Luke, hardly no freaky tales or wild stories, skip this garbage."
+14868,2,Still the best!,"If your interested in the paranormal, this series will not let you down.The various cases are interesting, Buell & his cast actually have screen presence by just being themselves, and the outcome of each episode is not always predictable.I've viewed Ghost Adventures & Ghost Hunters, and similar themed programs, yet none have the overall appeal this series consistently offers.As i pre-ordered ""Season three,"" here on Amazon, i was also knocked out by the low, low price!You simply can't go wrong for value & entertainment."
+14869,1,My Least Favorite Cookbook,Nothing to talk about. Just a very plain average cookbook with little or no originality. Very disappointing
+14870,1,Think Twice,"I ate Kraft chicken noodle dinner on a regular basis in college and beyond, especially adding some real chicken (diced leftovers) and finely chopped veggies. Then I found out about MSG and how really, very bad it is for you. I stopped eating this and all prepared foods with MSG and autolyzed proteins. Kraft chicken noodle dinner tastes great, but this is one habit that you shouldn't form if you haven't already started."
+14871,2,Nice Picture always!,"Great 180 degree veiwing. It is true to the specs. Use in bedroom, wife likes but wished we had gotten a little larger LCD Flat Screen TV. Would recommend."
+14872,1,Junk-Save Your Money,This player was a Christmas gift that was opened Christmas morning. The player had a bunch of screws or something rolling around inside the sealed player when we took it out of the box. There was a larger component rolling around inside the player also. Must have been where the screws came from. We still tried out the player hoping that we would not have an electrical blow-out when we plugged it in because of the components rolling around inside the player. It seemed to work ok. We returned it for a full refund.This item was very cheaply made and for the money they are asking for it it is not worth it. Do not go by the pictures because the one I received did not look like the same wood color. And thats because it is not real wood.I am not sure where this was made but it is typical of the junk that is being made in China these days. When I was a kid this kind of junk was being made in Japan.My advice...stay away.
+14873,1,"Do I listen to it, or eat it?","From the people who brought you Kava Kava and Ginseng, comes Ginkgo Biloba. This disc is supposed to make you more focused and clear. I noticed no such benefit. The music is very nice though. This series does make me wonder if they will be releasing other series, how about a vitamin series? Or a Garlic disc they could call ""The Stinking Rose, music to make you less prone to heart attacks."" I can't wait for the prescription drug series. And I think the entire city of San Francisco is waiting with baited breath for the Marijuana disc. No not the Pink Floyd disc, and no, not the Jefferson Airplane disc. As an herbal supplement, the disc bombs. It is too big to swallow, and the music puts you to sleep. As a New Age album, this is a solid if somewhat cliche offering."
+14874,2,slingo quest,I have a great time playing this game. It has a lot of different stages to go through and is very entertaining.
+14875,2,"An inspiring story, even for non football lovers","I admit it, I was a skeptic. I was not, and still am not, much of a football fan. When Rudy came out in theaters, I had no interest. It was only happening across a review of the film that I decided to get the DVD. What a suprise! Rudy is one of those movies that inspired me. A truly wonderful, moving story, beautifully told. Even more amazing is the fact that it is based on a true story!As for the DVD itself, I was very pleased with the sound and video quality. Anamorphic video is sharp and saturated, and the Dolby Digital soundtrack is stirring and makes good use of the surround speakers. The extras on the disc are good (a commentary track would have been a nice addition), but the featurettes, featuring interviews with the real Rudy are teriffic.Highly reccomended"
+14876,2,Excellent story with hidden twists,"I loved this movie! The real-ness of the storyline and the passion that Billy had for his art and his subject (Gabriel) made this movie even more realistic. I will say the ending was not what I wanted, and it left me with several questions, but all in all -- I really enjoyed the movie and would see it again."
+14877,1,Overrated underperformer,"This is NOT the best of both worlds; in fact, it's not good as either a slant or a point tweezer. The pointy end doesn't work at all. The slanty side doesn't grab the hair. I don't mind paying good money for a good tweezer but this one is two thumbs down. (I tried to give it zero stars but the lowest the system accepts is one.)"
+14878,2,Review of Makita Battery,This product more than satisfies my need for a replacement battery for my Makita 12 volt impact driver. I received the battery on time and was exactly as advertised.
+14879,2,finding buck mchenry by: erik cartmen,"The book finding buck mchenry was a great baseball book. In the book an older man named Mack Henry. At first he says that he was the great Buck Mchenry but after he lies about it to a television crew he confesses that he is not who he said he was. Mack Henry coach a three person three person team called the grandstand. the grandstand won almost every game that they played. i liked this book because everthing in the book had to do with baseball, and baseball is my favorite all around sport.erik cartmen"
+14880,2,Not a bad album...,"A friend of mine recommended this album to me. I must say I'm pretty impressed. I'm usually one who goes for more underground, less popular music, but these guys are definitely an exception. The same friend also recommended a band called Still Dreadful to me. They aren't as big as Creed, but these guys rock just as good. If you get a chance, check their CD out."
+14881,1,Need replacement manual.,"I only used this once; it was okay, and would like to try it again, but hv since moved and misplaced the manual that came with it. I hv tried in vain to find the recipes for this machine; would someone please just send me the simplest most basic recipe. I hv given up on finding a replacement recipe book. Otherwise it takes up a lot of room for nothing....thanks, MVanya TX"
+14882,1,A BIOGRAPHY OF A HIPSTER NOBODY KNOWS ?,"Why bother with a bio of hipster Terry Southern?Author tries a tongue in cheek run, but that does not work . Southern, by this account , was an alcoholic who made his living scribbling lines for B movies. Check that the author is a Canadian who does not have the slightest idea of what life was like in Terry Southern's haunts.Read this only if you wish to see what low grade stuff publishers are shoeveling onto the market these days ."

+14884,2,Lovely,"I purchased these earrings for my sister. They were so pretty, I hated to give them away. Perfect size and just as pictured."
+14885,2,Sennheiser PC151 Headphone,"I bought these in May 2009 for an attempt at voice over recording for video productions. I have been purchasing Sennheiser (Germany) products for over 30 years. Remarkable sound reproduction from the headphones. Clear distinct bass, mid range and highs. Sennheiser's are the best I have heard though I confess I have never listened to music through a set of Bose headphones.The boom microphone voice reproduction is not perfect, but acceptable. The limitations being heard on large powerful floor standing speakers. In normal every day use (gaming, computers, etc.) they are very good. For the price and the performance features indeed I would purchase another pair.Amazon's shipping and customer service is great as always."
+14886,2,What a great team of actors!,"I read the book and I loved it. I was curious how the movie would be since the book is so rich in scenes, in legend. Then I saw the film and I must say it's incredibly well done - honest, great interpretation, beautiful images. I'm glad I have it!"
+14887,2,good for bose,"Not the biggest fan of bose generally I think the motto is great sound through marketing, they market themselves as the best of the best sometimes when there are far better speakers out there. Upon receiving them I was surprised on the clarity and ability to produce reasonable lows when needed granted there not going to sound like they have a sub with them but overall sounded very nice. I think the mounting brackets were very nice and easy to make little adjustments with them , Overall very pleased with how they sound and If needed would buy again."
+14888,1,Disappointing,"So many products make promises they don't keep. This is one of them. They say it's tough.Sorry, it's not tough at all!I started making chainmaille jewelry recently and needed the softer jaws on my pliers for the soft metals like aluminum and silver. I have to redip my pliers every week and then they are out of action for 24 hours becuase I let them dry for that length of time. The coating peels off after just a couple of days use. I even tried a friend's suggestion of double dipping but that didn't last either. I'm looking for something more permanent.Beware buying it online as the price is jacked up. It's half the cost from a craft store even with tax added."
+14889,2,Spectacular.,An amazing collection of pictures. I have a handlebar moustache and couldn't imagine not having this in my collection. A must for the enthusiast of facial hair or photography. Or both. :)
+14890,2,Terrific lightweight generator,"One of the best features of this generator is it's compact size and portability. It's perfect for on the go generating of power for small to midsize equipments like notebook computers or handheld dvd players. It's got 1200 watts total so that means it could also pack quite a punch if you need it. Overall, as long as a new and not a questionably used one is purchased, then it should work just fine."
+14891,1,Measurements are wrong,"I'm sorry to give this such a low rating but the measurements on the page are wrong. I should have realized this when they gave 3 sizes for a round object but I still (wrongly) assumed the largest measurement was the size.The large lid actually measures 6 1/12"". The small lid (which BTW Progressive calls a 'mini' on the cardboard tag) measures 4"".So...I thought I was buying one 8"" and one 6"" and in reality I got a 6 1/2"" and a 4"".I have notified Amazon by phone and they assured me they would make a correction. We will see.I have a 10"" lid from a purchase somewhere else and it works great."
+14892,2,A most unusual TV series companion book,"Completely dispensing with the usual behind-the-scenes profiles and interviews that fill book companions to popular TV shows, this one stays completely in character as an amalgam of what might have been bits of scrapbooks from the characters in the show. Well worth getting now at the bargain price for those who came in late, but please watch the first three seasons first, or you'll have some events spoiled for you."
+14893,1,Unbelievably bad.,"Hard to believe this is the same author who wrote the other great ""bookman"" titles. Plot contrived, slow, and just plain boring. Did someone else write this book? Seriously believe if this had been Mr. Dunning's first book it would have been a quick flash in the pan. Waste of money even in paperback."
+14894,2,works just as intended,"I have only had for a week, and have caught at least 30 chipmonks.Took them to the neighbors to visit. Hopefully they will enjoy thier new pets."
+14895,1,Silly,"What starts out as a pretty standard clone of umpteen other similar home invasion movies, quickly becomes a ridiculous series of supposedly 'clever' plot twists. They aren't clever, but just silly and the movie quickly spirals into utter nonsense."
+14896,1,TOO BAD!!!,Very Bad experience w. seller! Mailed back WRONG Item can't get refund for shipping...Bad service!
+14897,1,a book spielberg will love.,"there are actually 2 books here : Time Traders from 58and Galactic Derelict from 59 (sequal). both books are kind of infantile SF books, representing the clasic age of the ganre. it has a very entertaing plot with aleans back to the past, and the back to the feuture plot, and then flying in rockets to sidtant planet, meeting bad russians, and aleans, and monsters. in short a full plot of 5 spielberg movies in one cover -because the story is so plane, the figures are one dimentional, the americans are always the best and humane, while the russian and the aliens are always bad or stupied. and the writing style is not something to cover on it.andre norton won the SWFA grand master aword in 83. i think this was to show gratitude for his persistance, but judging from this books, i don't think he truely deserved it."
+14898,1,Practically useless,"This is a cute little book, but if you're really interested in learning to be a Santa, save your money. It's nothing more than a cute little book. It is practically useless if you're looking for information on ""How to be Santa Claus."""
+14899,1,In spite of proper prep; the mirror fell off!,"Well, I have convex mirrors on all of our cars (4 cars - 8 mirrors) so I know how to put these on. This is the first brand that has fallen off. Need I say anymore."
+14900,1,Not compatible at all,Smeared toner over all copies from the beginning. I have had the 4P since 1995 and at this point I am beginning to be a little protective.
+14901,2,Absolutely Prince,"Just got this CD for my birthday and cannot say how excited I am to own this. Prince and I are in the same age group and I've followed him since Rude Boy. It's funky, hip, soulful, inspirational and got that hard beat that only Prince could produce. It's brilliant and Prince being true to himself and giving us a glimpse into his mind again. Love it, love it, love it."
+14902,1,Great While it Lasted!,"I really liked the look of this unit and the price was not bad. No issues related to usage, until the buttons on the face and the remote ceased to work. Tried to reset it with no luck. Now I have a DVD stuck in it and they want $70 to fix it. It is just over the 90 day warranty. How nice. I would think twice before pruchasing any other LG products. They were not willing to make any exceptions for the 90 days. After reading other forums on this model, I really question LG's committment to their customers. I will enjoy my time smashing it with a baseball bat!"
+14903,1,AVOID WASTE OF MONEY,"I bought this CD thinking it would relax me after a long hard day at work, all it has managed to do is increase my blood pressure. Elza's voice is way out of tone and disturbing at times. Maybe she should take some voice lessons before attempting to record a CD...... the reason two stars were given is that the music is OK until Elza opens her mouth....... save your money..... Yanni's music is much more relaxing and you get your money's worth."
+14904,1,"Try the ""How to Draw Manga"" series instead","I bought this book at the beginning of my interest in manga, and the only help it gave me was the Japenese phrases at the back. I keep the book around for that reason, but not much else. If you're a budding manga artist, or on more advanced level, I highly recommend the ""How to Draw Manga"" line of books instead of this one. The ""How to Draw Manga"" series covers a wide spread of manga topics, from starting basics to advanced pen and tone techniques. They even have books dealing specifically with shojo and shonen art! (I have already pre-ordered the Costume Encyclopedia that comes out in Feb. 2003!) Mr. Hart's work is good if you want a reference for WESTERN cartooning, but not for manga and animé."
+14905,2,Medeiros never disappoints!!,"This is the fourth or fifth book I've read by this author, and I'm so impressed by how she always delivers. Unlike many romance authors, she doesn't follow any particular pattern, either in subject matter or storyline. The theme of this book was unique and refreshing: a woman who's tired of being loved for her looks but, when she becomes ugly, learns that because she wasn't that beautiful ""on the inside"" to begin with, maybe her looks were the only thing about her worth loving after all, and decides to change her ways. This book contains the humor we've come to expect from Medeiros. But the book isn't so light that it lacks substance. Case in point, my favorite, heartmelting scene: Austyn, believing that Holly is about to be raped, urges her not to fight and risk her life, assuring her that he'll love her no matter what happens. This book delivered everything you could want in a romance. It's a keeper."
+14906,2,Another great book,"This is a wonderful follow up to the first book. Again, amazing stories from all walks of faith- atheists, Jewish, Fundamentalist, etc. Shorter chapters than the first book, but it kept me wanting to keep reading the next story. Would recommend it to all."
+14907,2,Good People and Great Deal~!!!,"These people really know how to treat a customer, it was fast, perfect condition~! Real nice considering it from 3000 miles away too."
+14908,2,Use them in the right device.,"Look folks, if you have a Tilia Foodsaver device, you want Tilia bags. If your sealer has a full rubber gasket, you need bags with the waffle pattern for airflow.These bags are for devices that have the little hose in the middle of the vacuum chamber. This sucks the air out. Otherwise the bag closes flat and does not draw the air out."
+14909,2,A life Saver,"This album kept me sane 15 years ago as I attended High School. I spent an entire year with this tape stuck in my walkman. As I listen to it now, I'm still in awe of its power.At Thrash Metal's peak, when bands moved past the fastest-riff-ever and gothic tones to more meaningful topics and much more mature music, PWYP stands out in a small cluster of releases by an even smaller cluster of artists that to me, truly defined the power of the music and the message it could convey. I miss those days."
+14910,1,Not Accurate,I know the terror that the Japanese had to through from reading other books and from what I learned in school and this book does not depict those terrors at all.
+14911,2,ScotchBlue Painter's Tape,"I used this tape in the past and did not like it - it was hard to remove and did not leave a clean line. 3M really improved this product, and now I have different widths available in my tool box for any jobs I have requiring painters tape. Great product!"
+14912,2,Amazing Results,"I have oily skin, so I'm always prone to break outs, but in the summer it is especially bad. I was wary about this product because it's mostly made of oils, but I was desperate. I bought this product and wasn't certain if it was working at first, but after the first day or two I saw amazing results. It seems to keep the pimples from getting irritated and red, so it never gets as large as it could have, it also seems like the pimples don't last as long either. They're gone in a few days as opposed to a week or longer. I am extremely pleased with this and would recommend it to anyone."
+14913,2,Praise from on high by JSB as told to MRL.,"At last I hear a rendering of my work I could have lived with. When you're here in the white light world it is hard to find anything interesting; all these harps twanging away are out of tune for the most part and they seem to favor the works of inferior talents like Heinrich Shutz (umlaut missing here). On occasion I monitor the fine recordings from down below of my works and it is gratifying that once or twice I've run across a few that do my polyphonic heart good. This is one such recording. The beauty of sound, phrasing, all the voices popping through, makes me want to write a few more. But perhaps not (they don't pay for my music up here). Anyway, send me more! Perhaps the sonatas?"
+14914,2,A rousing set worth every penny!,"If you think Incognito is just a studio band think again. This live offering captures a tight, energetic, perfectly balanced band having a great time in Japan. Incognito fans will appreciate the ample song list loaded with favorites, but fear not; this isn't a boring greatest hits concert. There is a jam-session feel on several of the cuts and Maysa really shines with her own versions of Roots and Everday. The whole thing is mixed beautifully just as you'd expect from Bluey. Love it!"
+14915,1,A dissapointment,"I was able to get into the first couple chapters but after that I thought the book was very boring. One night I read ten pages and had no idea what I had just read. I have no idea how this book made the Oprah list, because every book I have read from the book club has been great."
+14916,2,A great secondary cable for the money,"If you need a secondary cable for home or office use but don't want to spend extra money for an apple logo, this one is the choice for you. It charges and syncs my iPod touch flawlessly, not to mention for less than two dollars, it's also retractable. How much more value would you expect?"
+14917,2,Nothing is as it seems,"Val Kilmer's character warns the viewer right at the beginning that nothing is what it appears to be. Is Kilmer Danny, a punk-rock meth tweaker turned police snitch? Or is he a talented jazz musician named Todd Van Allen? The beautifully shot film noir presents many pieces to the puzzle, all of which fit together perfectly for a shocker of an ending. There really aren't words to decribe the movie or the storyline--it's just something you have to let unfold for itself.Vincent D'Onofrio is stellar as the villianous messed-up desert drug king in the movie.It's strange that this movie is cross-marketed with Spun so frequently. Yes, both are set in the world of methamphetamine, but Spun is an almost comedic train wreck of a drug trip, while The Salton Sea is a larger than life fable that happens to be set in the world of the Southern California meth industry."
+14918,1,"IN THE "" WHAT WERE THEY THINKING"" CATAGORY....","Yes, Tom C. and what music there is would be the only reason to buy this movie atrocity of the Broadway hit. In fact, the cast was very good except for Diego Boneta (a major casting error). Boneta was so weak that he couldn't hold up his part to the standard of the heavy-weights around him (including the monkey). Too bad they were all fighting a losing battle as the story, fun, structure, and music were gutted and mutated so far from the original and in the worst way. Adam Shankman proves that he is an egotistical no talent hack (and honestly that is being overly kind). It drives me crazy that this movie insult even exists as it is extremely doubtful that a decent version will ever be made. For a real good time see the live show, apparently Shankman didn't."

+14920,2,The Debt to Pleasure is a pleasure itself,"I love reading about food - whether it be a description in a novel or a book specifically written about food. This is somewhere in the middle - a novel which is a parody of the foodie memoir.The narrator Tarquin is a self-important snob, travelling from the UK to his home in Provence. He shares his thoughts on food and recipes, and also fills in the reader about his past. We learn that not only is he deluded about his own ability and living under the shadow of his world-renowned artist brother; but slowly we discover he is a very devious character as well.This is a well written, funny story, and has the requisite yummy food writing (highly inspiring!) but it loses a star because of Tarquin's long winded philosophical discourses. I know it's a parody but...."
+14921,1,junk,"wow, these sound horrible. words cannot express my displeasure. i expected these would suck as they were cheap as hell but they really really suck. how could anyone post a good review?!?"
+14922,2,never stops,I use this drill for those small jobs & hard to reach places and it is great.I have had mine for over 8 years now & have never had any problems the battery's are finely not holding a charge i cant believe they have lasted this long. great tool!
+14923,2,*N SYNC 'No Strings Attatched',"This album is the best of their work! Each song is packed with high energy and the ballads are well writen and perfectly sung. They might not be puppets on a string, but they are sweethearts when singing 'This I Promise You'.Oh, by the way, if somebody's tearin' up our heart, there's always this emotion filled hit single 'Bye Bye Bye'!"
+14924,1,nope,"this was my first book by john saul and it was very dissapointing. i didnt care much for the characters and found the story quite stupid.now, i didnt gave up on this author and im reading these days ""suffer the children"" ... a different story on this one. very good. when i finish it i will gladly make my review... ... but the god project; silly."
+14925,1,Huh?,"Well, I guess the only good thing I can say about these guys is that they can apparently fool the masses. Seriously, how can anyone respond to such shallow and disgusting dreck with such adulation? BLECH! Yes, I know, none of you will like this review. Boo hoo."
+14926,1,Great Album - Missed Anniversary Chance,"This is a fan rip-off!The original album is untouchable. But this is not about that. It is about these lousy remixes and missed opportunities to fill this anniversary set with new unreleased stuff.Remixes""The Girl Is Mine"" - best remix by Will.I.Am - 7/10""P.Y.T."" - not so good remix by Will.I.Am - 3/10""Billie Jean"" - not able to listen to that - 0/10""Beat It"" - Fergie's destroys the original - 0/10""WBSS"" - like Fergie he destroys the original - 0/10Unacceptable for a true music fan!"

+14928,1,Not wicked at all,"I had great expectations for this book. I love Amanda Quick's style and her slightly eccentric heroines. This one, however, was plain, boring and in no way wicked. The story wasn't as well-written as AQ's books usually are and simply dragged on and on and on."
+14929,2,Great lunch bag!!,"This princess lunch bag is great, and my (almost) 3 year old daughter loves it! It looks exactly like the photo online, with three of the Disney princesses, embroidered words and a great carry handle. My one complaint (and the reason I didn't give it five stars) was that the water bottle is already leaking. I think it's because I put it in the dishwasher (top rack), and the top of it got a little bent. As a result, it now doesn't close all the way. I'm either going to have to throw the bottle away, get a new one, or have my daughter try to maneuver it very carefully so the contents don't spill (that last option will be tricky). All in all a great product."

+14932,2,Ivana Doesn't Disappoint!,"I have liked Ivana since back in her Bass is Base days, bought her debut album as soon as it came out, and have since worn it out. Her new album is amazing, and I knew it would be, especially after seeing her performance in Vancouver this summer. Highlights - ""Cooldown"", ""What Matters"", ""Deserve"", and ""Dancin'"", but in reality, this whole album is awesome. Great summer music, and something that I will be listening to until her next album arrives (hopefully not in five years!) I love you Ivana, thanks for funkin' up my CD player!"
+14933,1,Missing a lot,"Given thats its been a few years since the last soundtrack, I thought they might use Radio Sunnydale to frame the last couple years of Buffy. And while there are a few songs that played a major part in the series (Prayer of St. Francis, Pavlov's Bell, The Final Fight) it would have been nice if they had included a few others. It's been mentioned, but Michelle Branch's ""Goodbye to You"" (the bronze mix) and Melanie Doane's ""I can't take my eyes off of you"" would have been grea additions to the album. Adding Christophe Beck's ""Sacrifice"" (from the end of The Gift), Halo Friendly's ""Runaway"", Virgils ""Parachutes"" or ""vermillian Borders"", Coldplay's ""Warning Signs"", Azure Ray's ""Displaced"" would have made this album much better.If you're a fan of Buffy make your own soundtrack - don't buy this."
+14934,1,Diluted For Radio,"If you're smitten with Tool, you'll probably discover Mer de Noms to be a paltry side-project. The popular radio-tease ""Judith"" is perhaps what all Tool followers have grown to know and love from the mouth of Maynard James Keenan, however that is the only tenacious track on the album. If you're looking for a return to the condensed viscosity of Tool, don't look for it in A Perfect Circle. Given those involved with its production, Mer de Noms was recorded, mixed and mastered extremely well, but someone put a muzzle on Mr. Keenan. A Perfect Circle is clearly another band."
+14935,2,Definitely worth picking up!,"This is the first book I've read by Ms. Becnel, and it certainly won't be the last! When Linnea, the second born of twin girls and supposedly cursed, finds out her sweet twin sister is to marry the man who takes over their castle, she makes a desperate switch and becomes the wife to the man who vowed revenge on their family. Because she is not Beatrix, the marriage is a farce and her family hopes to shame him. Although she sets out to hate him, her body betrays her and, finally, her heart. But when the truth of the deception is revealed, will she be able to hold up under her love's condemnation? Definitely a good romp, and a wonderful story. I'd recommend it to anyone who like medieval romance and strong heroines.Sarah Pearson"
+14936,2,humorous perspective on life and relationships,"I only saw a portion of this movie toward the end of it and only ""caught"" a portion of the title, ""Strangers"" but was humorously entertained to watch the interaction of the humor among these ladies who are making the best of a bad situation and surviving. I think I watched this on ""Sundance"" TV channel, a great support for independent films, which I wish we had more of (I do not have a TV satellite dish, so I found this movie on a friend's TV). Great perspective on what life is about and what we are about when we have to be resourceful and compatible. If it were not for IMDB (International Movies Database), I probably would not have found this wonderful film. I will try to rent it soon at the video store and watch it completely. Yes, it may be considered more of a woman's movie, but I think a man could appreciate the humanistic aspect and the humor. I laughed as much with it as I do when I watch TV's and Red Foxx's ""Sanford and Son."""
+14937,1,"There is a wealth of ""clean"" humor in the world...","...and it would take a genuine idiot to have gotten so very little of it between the covers of this book. The contributors upon whom Christing draws for the overwhelming majority of his contents are not so much puerile as pointless, falling flat with a degree of frequency and levels of ghodawfulness that makes even an Andy Rooney quotation seem literate and pithy by comparison.This is the kind of cement-headedness that gives ""clean humor"" a bad reputation"
+14938,1,Only $340.58! What a Bargain!!,"As of 9/17/2010, Amazon's only listing for this item is a single used copy offered by b2books for $340.58. Yep, that's right: $340.58! A clinical assessment of the seller's pricing rationale might make interesting reading also---but at what cost?"
+14939,2,Hyolodyn review,"Great book, everyone should read it and put it into practice. I have doubled my income.RFoster"
+14940,1,NOT air tight,These pitchers come with cheap plastic lids. The biggest problem is that they let it quite a bit of air so can in no way keep your contents fresh. I'm sending mine back.
+14941,2,We love Tim Allen - this includes an interview...,"I had never heard of Tim Allen until I saw the reruns of ""Home Improvement"". My husband and I ordered this DVD to see him in stand up comedy and were pleased that it included an interview where he shares his beginning in comedy. Since then we have read ""Never Stand Next to a Naked Man"" (hiliarious) and have learned even more about his personal life starting life with the last name of ""Dick"" and how his name was shortened to the Tim Allen we know. Everything Tim Allen does is good for those healthy belly laughs we all need. We own every one of his DVD's and love seeing them again and again when we need a laugh. This video is worth seeing at least once."
+14942,1,Embarrassing,"I must say that this book is embarrassingly bad, embarrassing because Youngblood's first novel was pretty good. We as black people are all too eager to suspend critical judgment and cheer on anything that is black-produced. The two previous reviews have to be kidding - silly similes and flatfooted metaphors crowd this book, along with no comprehensible story line. It is no wonder that a list of some of the worst lines from this book is circulating on the web (and IT is very funny). As someone who lived in Paris for ten years, I can tell you all that there is nothing real about the descriptions of the city or its people. I hate to be so harsh, and my words are directed towards the book and not its author, but really folks, let's respect black writing enough to praise that which is truly praiseworthy and condemn that which stinks. Sorry, but Black Girl in Paris stinks."
+14943,1,"Destined to break, I should have listened to earlier reviews","It may be an otherwise good piece of kitchen equipment, but if it breaks then it is just a useless piece of metal. Mine broke within the first 6 months of very moderate use when steaming milk. The needle won't budge whether I put it in the freezer or in scalding water. I had read the earlier reviews which mentioned this product's propensity to break, but I figured ""what's $7?"" My advice is to keep your $7 in your pocket instead of spending it on this thermometer."
+14944,2,Lots of fun,"One of my son's favorite toys. The only problem is that once he figured out how to dissasemble it, he didn't play with it the way it was intended. But that didn't seem to bother him...he just tilts it on his side and plays with it like that.A great toy!"
+14945,2,Great Runic Chant CD! Must have for Odinists!,This is a great way to learn Odinist runic chants. Good for any one studying Norse Shamanism. It is a lot easier than reading chants out of a book. An Asatru must! Wyatt Kaldenberg
+14946,1,Dissapointed.,"True, the book contains many pearls of wisdom, but I was turned off by occasional hints of self-congratulations, and other mildly gauche aspects of the book.**Other unexpected aspects of the book are the frequent digressions to more general advice about how to live one's life, and the underlying Christian theme of the book.I sent it back, as I was looking for more of an etiquette-oriented book on building personal relationships.**Statements that the author ""is one of America's most influential and successful business leaders,"" are balderdash. This construction company owner is an unknown in the scope of the national business scene."
+14947,2,I love the Corporation!,"With the Dirk Pitt books starting to get a little repetitive, I really enjoy these books co-written with Craig Dirgo. The plots are interesting, there's no unnecessary romance, and the characters are various but fun. In addition, there is a legend in the front of the book if you forget who's who.I hope this series continues for a while."
+14948,2,BEST BAG I'VE SEEN IN A LONG TIME.,THIS BAG DOES IT ALL. HOLDS MY CAMERA AND VIDEO CAMERA AS WELL AS MANY MANY OTHER THINGS THAT WILL EASILY FIT INTO THE CASE.
+14949,2,Excellent Book for Beginners,"I ordered this book for a jacket pattern and was pleasantly surprised at the rest of the content of the book. As a beginning knitter, it's easy to become overwhelmed by the language of knitting. Sally Melville's book is a great resource to me every day that I knit. The illustrations and instructions are clear and the patterns have lots of diagrams to help. One of the best features (besides the basic instructions - which I need) is the layout of each pattern - she details the skill level, the fit, scale, yarn details and equipment in a quick reference format that has proved extremely clear and easy to use. I've used other beginning knitter books and this one is by far my favorite. I will eventually give away my other beginning-to-knit books, but this one I will keep."
+14950,2,Transformers: Dark of the moon,"All I can say is AWESOME, the family loved it and was so very HAPPY to watch and enjoy on a great family evening, Thanks Bunches!"
+14951,2,what a pleasure!,"A perfect example of theoretical bricolage. Ross has combined narrative, semiotics and corporate culture into a must read for anyone interested in hyperreality and the postmodern condition. Finally a scholar who grounds his work with rigorous research, humor and insight. I will use this book as an example of what cultural studies can be."
+14952,1,thin glass,This was a replacement caraffe for the one that broke after a minor bump. The new one appears to be just as fragile. Manufacturer needs to make the glass shatterproof.
+14953,2,I'd just buy the cleaner,The dash cleaner is awesome but the protectant is just OK. I'd recommend the cleaner paired with Blackfire Interior Protectant.
+14954,1,WASTE OF MONEY,"I put the disc in my mouth right after I bite the inside of my lip. The Cankermelt irritated the area and it developed into a huge painful canker sore!!! So, no I would not recommend this product."
+14955,1,Sell Out Hacks!!! Buyer Beware,"Is it wrong to expect dance music CDs to include dance music? You know, you see something advertised as one thing, you buy it and it's totally something else. There's a big sticker on the front of the CD case that says ""BREATHE, featured in the Mitsubishi commercial...or whatever"". This lead me to believe that the whole album would be a little something like that song. WRONG!!!! The rest of this CD is all mediocre chill And nothing against people who're into Chill, but personally I don't care for it, if I want to sleep, I'll turn out the light. Pretty much what this album says to me is ""Hi We're Telepopmusic, we know most people wouldn't give a us a second thought, so we made this song to sell our album."" Maybe that's being a little harsh, but I feel very cheated, I trusted this group to give me something, and what they gave me, was not what I asked for. BUYER BEWARE!!!!!"
+14956,1,Makes a mess!,"Even though super cute this is an extremely poorly made product.""Steam"" blew up in the air and then fell on the floor making a huge mess. Carpet was soaked. Tried moving the humidifier higher up on a dresser but water just settled in same spot right in front of it.I've had other humidifiers before and I could place them on the floor and never had to worry about huge wet spots on the carpet from where the steam fell.I'd suggest another brand."
+14957,1,Meh...,"This product works fine if it fits the doorway perfectly. But be warned - If the space under your door is too wide it won't work at all and just hinders the opening and closing of the door. The materials are cheap as well, seems like I should have paid less for a scrap of fabric and 2 foam tubes."
+14958,1,decent solo debut,"First of all,the lyrics on this album are forgettable.The only good songs are What Happened To That Boy ft. Clipse,Heads Up ft. D Boys,and Never Had Nuthin.Overall this is not a very good album because of the absence of the Hot Boys."
+14959,1,It's a disappointment,"The whole track has a very slow moving, heavily drugged out feeling, definitely NOT their best mix."
+14960,2,"No complaints, isn't that nice","Well, I'm not gonna annoy you with what you already know. Basically it's a basic looking phone with a convient plan. What I like best about this unit is the price. You get all the pay as you go features and extras without a monthly contract....isn't that what really counts?By Cathy_luvs_dd a Virgin Mobile Insider"
+14961,1,Nice if you don't mind it being out-dated within 6 months !!!,I actually do not own this but my friend bought one a month ago. Very simply put; it is a nice toy if you have thousands of dollars to waste. In a very short time from now it will be seriously out-dated and Apple will push a fancier and more cost effective(cheaper)one. TERRIBLE VALUE
+14962,1,Assembly line crap,"I can't understand the popularity of these books. The villain is one-dimensional. The children, despite their various ""talents"" are frustratingly unresourceful. (They're in trouble, they have a sympathetic *judge* who lives next door, yet they never ask her for advice? Perhaps they had their reasons, but they're not articulated, and so they seem rather useless and hard to cheer on.)There's a self-conscious and self-congratulatory cleverness to the writing. It seems ""Snicket"" just does not respect his audience.Skip this assembly line crap and read quality children's books that deal with the dire fates of orphans so much more satisfyingly.* Noel Streitfield's SHOES series. This writer has a very clear respect for her readers and doesn't indulge in cheap melodrama.* The Wolves of Willoughby Chase by Joan Aiken. Very similar themes, but SO MUCH BETTER!"
+14963,2,Gritty and Realistic,"I saw this movie when it played on television many years ago. I was just flipping channels...I think I may have missed the very beginning. Once I started watching, I was hooked. We see many images of teenage life,dysfunctional families,and blended families, and most of time they are pretty predictable. This movie was so rare, so gritty, yet I couldn't take my eyes off of it. Rare because we don't get to see many images of Native Americans in real-life situations. I would really like to own this movie. I have forgotten parts of it...however, the asking price for this VHS set is kind of steep. Hopefully, Robert Redford will see that many movie watchers would love to own this piece of cinema. In the meantime, I hope to catch it some afternoon, preferably on a commercial-free channel."
+14964,1,Shabby quality,"Oster had always meant a quality small appliance until I got this toaster. It worked ok for the few couple of months, but then started burning the toast or frozen waffles. Constant adjustments were required. Then the main lights indicating settings started burning out. After 18 months, this piece of junk is going into the trash. My opinion of Oster quality is in the dumper as well; no more does their name indicate a durable, reliable product. Buyer beware."
+14965,2,great tent!,We love this tent. It is large enough for our queen size air mattress with a good amount of room left over. It has been very durable and is so easy to put together. We searched around a lot before we choose this tent and are so happy that we did.
+14966,2,surely........one of the best metal album of the year.,"Frankly, i wish megadeth win the grammy. This new album called 'united abomination' is great.The first 5 track are fast, heavy but melodic too. Others track still good but the most interesting is the solo part on the end track called 'burnt ice' .....increase your volume before listen! The japan release come with bonus track 'Out On The Tiles', another great performance from the deth dealing with cover version. Surely...one of the best metal album of the year. If you have more money, get the japan release one. Enjoy the cd."
+14967,2,A Gripping Read. Loved It!,"If you're looking for a great multi-generational southern gothic-type tale, this book is for you. The story of Ruth Fox won't leave you quickly. Rich in characters and detail, I really didn't want it to end. The story of madness in a Southern setting; complete with ghosts, affairs, whispers in the night and downright evil. I'm glad I bought a new copy because I'm sure it will be passed around to many of my friends for a long time to come."
+14968,2,Lots of info with occasional poor definitions,"This book gives a lot of information on circuit analysis techniques but some of the definitions are poor, especially with meshes and trees. Mesh loops actually are loops such that they cannot be formed with any of the other loops that were chose in the circuit. Also, their examples with RLC circuits give overly complicated methods of finding initial changes in inductor current or capacitor voltage. The book should show that an easy way to find initial changes in inductor current or capacitor voltage is to plug the initial inductor current or capacitor voltage into the nodal equation or loop equation that has been differentiated so that the change in inductor current or capacitor voltage is present in the equation."
+14969,2,All My friends aregetting this book as a present,"I was blown away by this book. I have been reading books on investing for about a year now and nothing comes close to this. It is not a get rich quick sceme, it is a precise method for pricing and indicating when to buy and sell stocks. I have been investing on paper like Phil suggested and have been doing very well. I can't wait to apply these methods to actual trading."
+14970,2,Clint t'ain't 'kidd'ing around!,"clint.May hero does a great jo as them man called joe kidd.He erm coeboy of the old west .T'werth the olden days.I lurve how clint shoots up all them bad men but the lack of babies in them movies was disapointin.I think it woulda been better if Clint had saved a baby instead of them damsels in distress from them bars.YThe babys are cuter and t'werent need much money to be payes.Just a buck a day and if one leaves or gets sicks.You can get a new one, cause all them babies look the same.Clints looks aot like me in them movies and i think i lurk might fine fer a man."
+14971,2,Fascinating,"I have always held a fascination for Mars, as have many people. This is a great documentary to get your taste buds watered up for the Mars exploration. Despite being a science fiction writer, I am still blown away by the progress of technology and what they were able to do with the Mars rovers.I won't reinvent the wheel by restating everything that was in the previous, very detailed reviews. I just want to mention a few things. This particular video is on the construction of the rovers (completely custom built), programming, the setup of the landers, etc. There were many trials and tribulations with this mission including issues with the parachute in the testing, the launching of the second rover, etc. I'm sure everyone involved was stressed out for quite a while until the final touchdown of these vehicles on Mars. If you want to see more on what happened after they landed, check outNOVA: Welcome To Mars. This was great and I look forward to more documentaries on the Mars exploration."
+14972,1,Stinks,The book is tedious. Do not care for the voice it was written in. Boring. Rambling. Slow. A waste of money.
+14973,2,"Satisfying ""Sandman""","When a middle-age freelance travel writer is diagnosed with a crippling disease, he begins toquestion everything. The author does a fine job of showing the protagonist's emotionalturmoil -- one minute he's fine, the next he's contemplating taking his life. The reader iskept in suspense until the very last page. Occasionally raw but always entertaining. A nice effort from a first-time novelist."
+14974,2,Great,Real funny movie with great bits of Craig's act in between. Farrah Fawcett is hilarious as the dream girl. A very funny movie.
+14975,1,Not very good,"Purchased this phone and am returning it since it ""hums"" whenever there is a call. I even tried it at my vacation home in a different state but experienced the same problem. Not worth the hassle."
+14976,1,It looks like mosquitos ate her eyelids to shreds and that is why she squints ! hehe,"I like Myscenes and all,but this is just discusting!"
+14977,2,Monumental Performance!,"The recording quality of the both concertos are very poor compared to best recording quality of the era(1945-48), but not as bad as Kapell's worst broadcast recordings. Despite the constant background noise and unfocussed sound, the delicacy and brilliance of the performances still come through. The performances themselves are a monument to the greatness of human spirit and ability. Rach3 is Kapell's only surviving document of the concerto, and what a superb concerto player he was. Khataturian concerto matches the famous RCA recording with Koussevitzky in intensity and verve. No doubt he is one of the greatest concerto players alongside Simon Barere, Horowitz, Rubinstein, and Sviatoslav Richter."
+14978,1,Gave away most of it.,"I really wanted to like this tea, but I just couldn't. It has a slight sour taste. I had to give away most of the boxes I ordered. Oh well! Lesson learned - don't buy bulk tea if you haven't tasted it before!"
+14979,1,ATROCIOUS SOUND,As a Gencer lover I rushed to buy this previously unreleased cdterrible disappointment as the quality of sound is possibly the worst I've ever heard and totally ruins what would have been a wonderful performance - stay clear or buy the other Borgia from Myto 1971 whose sound is fine.
+14980,1,"Great feel, but no sustain - updated","I was impressed when I took it out of the box; but when I tried it with my Yamaha keyboard, it did not sustain notes for longer than a few seconds.Update: I did try using the polarity switch, but was unsuccessful (see comments). I probably did not understand how to use it before I sent it back."
+14981,1,Created agitation not harmony iin my house,"8 hours on phone with 3 different Logitech Harmony technical representatives2 pleasant, last one arrogant. No one coldCould never successfully program remote...only needed TV; Cable Box; BluRay DVD programmed, should not have been complicated. All new, current equipment.Writing so small, very difficult to read. Especially screen.Don't Buy"
+14982,2,Fantastic Look at Hollywood History & Culture,"This is a must read for understanding Hollywood culture and the development of the film industry. Zanuck was there for most of it, and this book lays out the role of major studios and producers.Even if you read this as a business story and pass on the historic aspects on the film studios, it is well worth your time."
+14983,2,Works without issue,"Very easy use, set the battery type and charge amps, and you're good to go. I have used this now on both a marine starting and marine deep cycle battery, and it does it's job with ease. Seeing the battery % really makes this easy to use. The only thing is that sometimes when you hook it up to a deep cycle battery it doesn't read correctly, where it will show really low battery %, like 10%. This is corrected by taking off the power for a couple of seconds, and then replacing it. If you are charging an old battery for the first time, and aren't sure of where it stands, be ready for this possibility."
+14984,1,The 90's were an odd time indeed...,"The 1990's... They began with ""Smells Like Teen Spirit"" and Nirvana, and ended with ""I Want It That Way"" and The Backstreet Boys. In other words, it went from smelling like teen spirit to actual teen spirit. Even though they pretty much defined the 2nd half of the 90's, BSB were still a horrible, horrible pop group. They had catchy songs and some good harmonies, but none of them were musicians or even writers. All their music was backed heavily by synthesizers, and if there was an acoustic guitar in there it was played by somebody else. The lyrics were not written by the boys themselves, but by a hired team or writers. Not to mention every song was about either A. love or B. dancing. What a range of topics, eh? Get this if you want some 90's nostalgia or a good laugh (at how cheesy these guys were). If you want a real 90's nostalgia CD, get Nirvana's Greatest Hits."
+14985,1,Worked One Week,"Worked well for one week and then shorted out, blackening the base of the light bulb and melting the plastic housing."
+14986,1,Not a genujine Mantovani recording,"Since Mantovani never recorded anything by Andrew Lloyd Webber, this is obvoiusly not a genuine recording by Mantovani. It is merely another example of deceiptful use of the Mantovani name for the purpose of ripping off customers. This is no less serious than the sale of knock-off Rolex watches and Amazon seems to be willing to do this over and over again."
+14987,1,A BIG ZERO!,As a movie it is horrible. It is like watching a road runner cartoon. Very corny and cheesy. The power rangers cartoon is more realistic.
+14988,2,GREAT BOOK!,"This is one of the best true crime books I've ever read!! It follows the family from the parents' childhoods straight through. How Elaine Gere ever got through all this without falling apart, I will never know. It also highlights a huge crack in America's law enforcement. Michael Green should have been at the very least questioned about his suspicious activities hours before Brenda was murdered. Apparently, the cops couldn't be bothered. I read this book almost straight through at one time! I highly reccomend it!!"
+14989,1,Disappointing,Does not keep hot beverages hot for as long as I was led to believe based on other reviews.
+14990,2,A Must Have For The Playstation,"I could go on about how engaging Medal of Honor is, but here's the short version--The details are great, from the muzzle climb of your Thompsom SMG, to your character's college report card! The missions, enemy AI, and atmospheres are realistic and convincing.Sound is near perfect, including the movie-quality soundtrack which was composed just for this game. MOH's replay value is substantial, as you'll find yourself coming back to previously played levels to shoot some more of those conniving Nazis.The only downers in MOH are the sometimes-grainy graphics, slightly glitchy collision detection, and single difficulty level. These will probably be overlooked when you find the Bazooka and a couple boxes of ammo:)"
+14991,2,Instant fire,"I purchased this item as I was planning a barbecue that would last several hours and wanted hot charcoal ready quickly.This starter does exactly that. The coals lit immediately and burned so quickly that the heat could be felt quite far away. I was able to ""reload"" the BBQ with no problem.The design is quite simple and it's true that you could build one yourself, but it's so inexpensive that it's worth just buying it. The handle stays cool, but since the device is all metal, all of the other parts get ridiculously hot. You'll want to be very careful."
+14992,1,Ok at first...,"I bought a pair of these speakers for my Jeep. I was excited about them because they seemed great - big magnets, high power, and so on. However, I put them in and they ended up sounding really tinny and unclear. I had 50 watts rms running to each speaker, and they handled that power well at first. They didn't distort (although they didn't sound clear and crisp at all), but very quickly the power blew the woofers. Now the tweeters make a little bit of tinny sound, but the woofers do nothing at all. I am very disappointed with these speakers. They do not sound like quality speakers in the least, although they do look pretty cool. Their power ratings are completely unrealistic, as they couldn't even begin to handle a quarter of the power that they are advertised. The company also has not responded to my emails to see if they will fix the speakers."
+14993,2,Stellar,"This phone does everything. I am extremely pleased with it.Only a couple of complaints:1. I had to return my first phone. It would charge for 5 seconds when plugged in, but then act as if I unplugged it. The nice folks at Sprint replaced it for me, since I was within my 14 days of buying it.2. Some software makes it crash. Beware the ""Documents to Go"" software.But even those two complaints are minor. This phone is fast, reliable, user-friendly, and the chicks dig it."
+14994,2,Effective teaching technique,"Mr. Smiley uses the approach of solving real-world programming problems to guide beginners through the world of Visual Basic operations. The book is beautifully written, and I found myself able to easily identify with some of the people mentioned. All in all a good buy if you're wanting to learn the basics (and some intermediate programming too)."
+14995,1,"Loud, then Broken","My daughter received this for her second birthday. She liked it well enough. She enjoyed putting all sorts of items on the track to see if they would go around. Plus, she enjoyed turning it on over and over. The volume was too high in my opinion. The racket of the tracks rotating competed with the loud music. There is no volume control, only on/off.After about 6 months of play, the belts for the track seem to have stretched and were constantly slipping so the tracks would no longer rotate. Ended up in the trash. Honestly, I wasn't too sorry to see it go..."
+14996,1,A Crazy Book by a Crazy Woman,"Valerie Solanas is best known becuase of her attempted assination of Andy Warhol. This book shows us why, though relativly brief, it allows us to peek inside of the scrambled mind of this woman. The book reads like a semi-connected series of ramblings, about how men are SCUM, and how a Utopia would be created should all the men be done away with. I recommend this book to anyone interested in Warhol history, or a good laugh, otherwise AVOID THIS BOOK!"
+14997,1,You must be joking,"I strongly disagree with all of the reviewers of this book. I am only fifteen and I can still see the error in your 5 star giveaway . The fact that everybody is convinced the media is somehow cuddling with Bush is simply moronic. Need I remind you that all except for one national news channel (Fox News Channel) leans to the left (to different degrees of course)And just because someone writes a book about something you beleive in, doesn't make it well written. Final thought, I think this book was poorly written and I'm not even a republican, then again I'm not a democrat either. I just hope some people take my reveiw into consideration."
+14998,1,Basically a dictionary....,"I wanted to find out why we, as a society, say such things as ""knock on wood"" or ""in one ear and out the other"". Where does that come from? Who started it? I was extremely excited to purchase this book, thinking it would not only answer my questions, but be entertaining. It was a major disappointment. I found the reading very dull. The sayings were obviously well researched, giving origins, dates, and analizations of each words meaning; yet it was more like a dictionary than a story of how the sayings came about.This book has been sitting in my bookcase since the day I bought it waiting for a rummage sale."
+14999,1,these are awful!!!!!!!,These were such a waste of money. The description said they were long. Well they might be long on a midget only! I'm not extremely tall and they don't even come down to my ankle bone. I'm not sure what to even do with them they're so bad. Even poorly sewn. The seams are just crazy. Don't waste your money.
+15000,2,Great Music,"The song ""Why not take all of me"" sounds as fresh today as it did when it was first released."
+15001,2,The Hearse you came in on,I was wondering if you knew how I could order funeral hearse models. My husband is a funeral director and he would really like something like that.
+15002,1,DISAPPOINTING!!!,Yes... VERY DISAPPOINTING!!! Can't think WHY it was ever banned ?!!! Don't bother! Wish I'd saved my money so don't waste yours!
+15003,2,Biblical consideration of the Holy Spirit,"An exposition of the biblical testimony to the Holy Spirit. Schweizer investigates the role of the Holy Spirit in the Old Testament, intertestamental literature, and the New Testament. From an extensive consideration of these texts he indentifies several marks of the Spirit's presence: closeness to Jesus and the Father, freedom, community, direction, and openness to God and the future. All of these are related to the modern day church and the lives of Christians."
+15004,1,"Awesome sound, but DVD function broke after 2 years","Other reviews are right: It takes about 2 years before the DVD player malfunctions. Ours did last night, after purchasing it in Oct 2002. We're looking at significant repair costs. Awesome sound is N/A if you can't enjoy the main function of the unit (video)."
+15005,2,Stadium Arcadium,"Continuing good work by the band. Flows well and is, in my opinion, better than their last CD."
+15006,1,An OK choice for beginners,"I bought this DVD with Sera's ""East Coast Tribal"" DVD to help facilitate my at-home practice and I have to admit that it is dull in comparison. The combos are less than stimulating and the crazy lava-lamp background really is distracting from Darshan's teaching technique. Unlike Sera's smooth, graceful combos, Darshan's seem to be a bit tame and boring. Most of them are variations on ATS movements (arabic hip twist, for one) that you can find on Fatchance DVDs or are small isolation combos that you could feasibly make up at home.The one that that is amazing on this DVD is her performance pieces. Darshan really is an amazing dancer and well worth watching... but I have to admit that her lovely performance wasn't enough for me to keep this DVD.I WOULD suggest this DVD for its drills and combos for a beginner, however, since they're simple and clear-cut. However, if you're an experienced dancer who is looking to expand your horizons, I would suggest looking elsewhere."
+15007,2,A Very funny fellow,"You'll laugh till it hurts roy d mercer is one funny fella the pranks he pulls i can't believe sometimes . pick up a copy otherwise he'll whup your tail i also recommend vol. 6 , 2"
+15008,2,Simple story enhanced with fine art.,This story is simple enough for babies-small children to enjoy and the illustration is inspiring.
+15009,2,works good,works really good but needs fine adjustment screws. it's kinda hard to get it adjusted just right but all you have to do is work with it a little. once screws are tight it holds very well.
+15010,1,Where's my stuff??,"I ordered this product 3 weeks ago and still haven't received it, it actually hasn't shipped as of yet???? By the time I get it, I'm afraid the rain season will be over and snow will arrive."
+15011,2,great purchase,I am very pleased with this purchase. I bought this book for my son and he was very pleased with this! Very fast shipping!!!
+15012,2,Incredible!,"IT'S A ZOO OUT THERE features incredible animal photography by award-winning photographer, Rachael Hale. Animal lovers will adore the pig dressed in a tutu, the cat wearing a tiara, the poodle pair lying on a bed of roses, the sleepy black kitten wearing a witch's hat...and all those puppy dog eyes.The perfect gift book to lift spirits and fill the room with ooohs and aaaahhhs all year round."
+15013,2,Christmas Present,Got it for the fathet-in-law for Christmas. he seems to like it for his Ruger 10-22 SR. it fits well and holds his magazines.
+15014,2,A must have!,I do believe this stress coat is the best on the market. All freshwater aquariums must use this in the beginning and all water changes that follow.
+15015,1,THIS IS NOT A MILLIVOLT THERMOSTAT,it is NOT compatible with millivolt systems per Honeywell. try something else. these words are just to make up the extra I need to reach 20
+15016,2,"Fun, quick and makes you feel better about yourself...","Kennedy's book is an incredibly fast and almost always enjoyable look at growing up X. He is so amusing as he relates the tales of his life. He makes a million mistakes, but can manage to laugh. He seems to have turned out ok. Another in a long line of memoirs from Gen X's, this one is almost up there with Paul Feig's and Dan Zevin (the Day I turned Uncool). The stories are light and will make you feel better about yourself, not matter how sad your life seems."
+15017,2,Bohm truly knows his Mozart and BEETHOVEN too...,What is so individual about K. Bohm's approach is the way he allows the music to unfold naturally...and that is is the magic. The Vienna Philharmonic introduces so wonderfully right down to the basset clarinets...all of this is so spine tingling as to defy description.You really got to give his Beethoven a try...again it is so relaxed and full of beauty...he was a great artist and the only conductor the Vienna Phil named Conductor Laureate!!!
+15018,2,A Helpful Memoir for Women,"Liz Perle does a really nice job in ""Money, A Memoir"" of weaving statistics, professional studies, and other people's experiences with her own personal experience and insight. While many parts of her book sound familiar (e.g., women shopping when they're in a slump) it does look below the surface at some of the root causes of our unhealthy relationship with money and why we differ vastly from men in that regard. The other thing I appreciated about the book was that Perle doesn't claim to have all the answers, and explains how she was able to find a happy medium in her relationship with money, which to me sounded like something I could attempt and achieve. Thanks, Liz for a very important memoir that women of all ages should read!"
+15019,1,[...],"A waste of paper and ink - [...] - LIES, LIES & more lies...never seen so much non-evidence in all my life + it's written like a story, not an investigation. Virtually everything has been PROVED to be false, misleading & just plain wrong."
+15020,1,publisher error,"Buyer beware! At page 324, there is a completely different book inserted! Pages 325 through 356 are missing and replaced by pages 343-374 of a COMPLETELY DIFFERENT BOOK. This is for HarperCollins' Greenwillow Book, First EOS edition 2008. Now we have to find one that was published correctly."
+15021,1,Press-Fit Outlet Plugs,"This product did not work for us. Once in place, my son was able to pry them out without much effort. It could be that our outlets were the problem. The plugs wouldn't click so they weren't really secure."
+15022,2,More than an MOS guide,"Although the book is a study guide for MOS, you don't have to be taking that exam(s) to benefit from this book. If you are intimidated by spreadsheets, and want to get started with a text book equivalent of your school books, this book fits the requirement.And of course, if you are a candidate for a MOS exam, then you'll love the book. I liked how it is laid out -- the exercises are ""real life"" and the scenarios are thoughful and well explained."
+15023,2,Play for HOURS,"This game is pretty addicting... I will literally play for hours and hours (and I'm not big into video games)! It's so fun to create your different characters and build your dream house... I played on the computer at a relative's house and really got hooked there, so my husband got the game on XBox for me. It's a little different then the computer version but still just as fun!"
+15024,1,Jarring details prevent suspension of disbelief,"Bangkok is a city ripe for this sort of fictional treatment, but John Burdett apparently did not immerse himself deeply enough in Thai culture and Buddhism to pull it off for this Thai reader. There are details that would probably be appreciated by the Western reader as adding a touch of oriental mystery to the proceedings, but because the author gets them wrong, only telegraph his superficial familiarity with Thai culture. A writer who makes much more effective use of Bangkok and Thai culture as a fictional backdrop is S.P. Somtow, a horror/fantasy author who happens to be Thai. I had looked forward to Bangkok 8, but my being Thai seems to have prevented me from enjoying the book as much as most other reviewers."
+15025,1,Fall Apart,My son wanted this toy and when he received it he was unable to play with it. It falls apart at the slightest touch. I have tried to find a way to super glue to no avail. I would stongly recommend not buying this. Way to much aggravation for parent and child alike.
+15026,1,junk,"The remote stopped working about 10 minutes after I got it. Day two, the fan clicked loudly when turning one of the directions. Day four the fan clicks even when not swiveling. I e-mailed customer service and no reply for a month. I just called and had to wait 45 minutes for a rep."
+15027,2,Murder With Peacocks,This is my first Meg Mystery by Donna Andrews. I am definitely going to buy more of her books. It was not only a mystery but a funny and slightly romatic book. Another book that was hard to put down.
+15028,2,Harry Potter Costume,Shopping with Amazon was a great experience! Website is easy to navigate including checkout. Item was shipped promptly and arrived in good condition. A+
+15029,1,Too many loose ends in the end!,"When I read a thriller or crime story I do not expect much, but I do expect that the mysteries are unveiled, the riddles solved and everything makes some kind of sense in the end. Unfortunately this expectation remains unsatisfied by this book. The last chapter (40) is basically a record of all those questions that remain unanswered for eternity. It is fair to say that I feel cheated somehow, because all those parts were used throughout the book to keep my attention and were used to generate the thrill and suspense in the first place. Rarely felt so disappointed! (The story itself was not bad until chapter 40...)"
+15030,1,Technical topic written in 5th grade style.,"I've read all of Patterson's books so far and have enjoyed most of them,particularly the Alex Cross novels. ""When the Wind Blows"" was a big disappointment. The short choppy chapters began to wear on me and after a while I wondered how much white space was consumed by this technique. I counted 122 pages of the novel's 416 that were essentially blank. That and the double spacing made the book look a lot more substantial than it is. I noted in the remarks made by others that many had read the book in one sitting. That would be easy to do. Ironically, the subject matter in this work is probably the most complex of any of Patterson's works so far, yet the style and the characters were almost disneyesque. I felt as though I was reading a Hardy Boys or Nancy Drew escapade. I hope Patterson will get back to Alex Cross. He did a fine job with that character."
+15031,1,WWF Dreamcast GARBAGE,"This game is garbage because of the few modes you can play and limited wrestlers. Sure it is good to get 9 wreslters into the ring at one time and it is kind of fun to fight in the parking lot near the street. But once you play it for a week or less, you get really tired of it. I suggest selling your Dreamcast and buying a PS2 or an XBOX which both have better (wrestling) games. Thats why dreamcast went broke. It had such good potential but the people did not put enough good games. Most were too much arcade like games that you got tired of. The rest was all sports. Well actually mostly all the games are better than dreamcast on the XBOX and PS2."
+15032,1,My Search for the Son of Sam,"This was the worst book I have ever read, true crime or otherwise. I would not recommend the purchase of this book."
+15033,1,Totally Pointless waste of time,"What a total and utter turd this movie is. I feellike punching the maker in his face and demandinghe find a time machine to replace the 2 hours I wasted.And whats with the gratuitious orgasms ? Man we werehowling with laughter ! Dude, youve made the worstfilm Ive ever, ever seen. Ive watched films before I admitI didnt ""get"", but none ever actually prompted angertill now."
+15034,2,It's a horrible shame that this is out of print...,"... or it would be another of the books on my permanent gift-giving list.Reading this book is like rummaging through the proverbial attic. It's full of dusty, shabby notions that seem dated, broken, and discredited; what seemed enlightened in 1920 is disturbingly racist now, for example, and the veiled denunciations of Aleister Crowley are valuable only as historical curiosities.But in the dusty clutter, there are occasional treasures of inestimable value. Dion Fortune expressed, possibly better than any writer I've ever encountered, the extent to which mystical experience relies on the tension between the literal and the metaphorical. Buried in the middle of this book is an allegorical passage as deep and expressive as Plato's cave.If you can find this anywhere, it's worth the search."
+15035,1,Silpat,Silpat is non-stick the first time you use it. After that it is no different than any other surface despite the advertising.
+15036,1,Awful,"I am very unhappy with the under shelf basket that I ordered. It is way to long for my top cabinets (which are standard size) and on the bottom, it is very hard to get to. The basket also is not very stable, it moves around when you put anything in it or take anything out. Overall, I would not recommend this product to anyone."
+15037,1,Mediocre performances of great music - get the vinal,"Our family fell in love with the Frank Sinatra / Marlon Brando movie of Guys and Dolls. Imagine our delight when we found the CD. Imagine the looks around the dinner table when even our four-year-old said ""This isn't as good as the movie, is it?"" In fact, after hearing the movie, it's almost unlistenable. We did unearth an old scratchy copy of the vinal record from the 1950's, and though it's not as good as the movie, it's very close, and it blows the doors off of the CD."
+15038,1,attractive bag...poor workmanship,"Got this bag for my son's Red Cross first aid supplies. All he had in it were band-aids, gauze, etc. nothing heavy. He hadn't even taken it outside the house...had it 3-4 days and the rivets that hold the leather straps on the front came off on one side. Returned it. Too bad, cuz it's a really neat looking bag! :o("
+15039,2,TWELVE PACKS?,"Great product, great price, and I have two SnL serving bowls. But TWELVE BOXES? Take me four years to use all that."
+15040,2,In-depth look at the formation of the Old Testament,"Dr. Vasholz has spent many years studying the formation and transmission of the Old Testament, and this book reflects the quality of his research. It is a useful tool for anyone looking to understand the historicity and validty of the Old Testament writings. As an example, he clearly outlines the function of prophecy, and also shows why the apocrypha should not be considered canonical."
+15041,2,shape bandit,"Great episode, My Grandson loves this, he likes to play like he is the shape bandit.I would recommend this video."
+15042,1,"The Orwell fiasco: Bye bye, Amazon","I would never consider buying a Kindle now that Amazon has acted to delete users' e-books. I suppose it's good that Amazon values its publisher relationships so highly, because its reputation couldn't get much worse with this customer. Maybe the publishers will buy all that product."
+15043,2,YEAH!,its about time this movie came out on dvd. the movie was funny at parts and the cameo appearence from ron jeremy was just as fitting. there was great scenes where the two main characters orgazmo and choto boy just went around zapping people with the orgazmo ray that was plain hilarious. unfortunately the only close to x rated part was a guys a** everytime a porn scene was about to happen.
+15044,2,"Awesome book. Thrilling, Suspenseful","This is a crazy story about one of America's most dangerous serial killers. Ted Bundy was one messed up soul and Ann does an amazing job of telling the story from her eyes (and relationship with BundY), as well as reporting what really happened according to police and the public. A great read."
+15045,1,My son doesn't like this,I ordered this for my 2 and 1/2 year old son based on all the good reviews. He already colors well and knows his alphabet so I thought he would really like it. But it just annoys him. He hates being quizzed while coloring and for the games you just sit and point with a crayon and he grows bored quickly. We'll put it away and try again in a few months but for now he has more fun just coloring on regular paper without all the electronic distractions.
+15046,1,The worst of the Harry Potter Films,"By the time Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (2009) came along, I was bored with the series. Harry Potter, this all powerful wizard was about a powerful was a wet bag at a sand castle competition. So I did not hold out much hope for this film. The film did not let me down. The film is about running and little else. The must frustrating part was the Hermione Granger assault. Hermione Granger, consistently the most powerful, came over as an absolute wimp and just let the assault happen complete with Bonnie Langford's Violet Elizabeth Bott """"I'll thcream and thcream 'till I'm thick"""" The only sad part is the death of Dobby.It did not bode well for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 which was marginally better than part 1!!!!"
+15047,1,Good Music...but!,The little River Band is one of my all time favorites. Unfortunately this disc is of low quality sound and even lower quality video. Too bad...great concert content and even my high-end DVD can't overcome the poor quality.
+15048,2,"EDDIE, EDDIE, EDDIE",I love Eddie and he did not disappoint in this movie. Got a deal from Amazon and always check here before ordering anything.
+15049,1,nah.,This didn't really do anything for me. It was hard to get into and not nearly as satisfying as Tae Bo.
+15050,2,Beautiful and Stunning,"This movie was not only thought provoking and visually stunning at times, but brought me back to my boarding school days. (I went to an all boys boarding school.) Some people call what young ""boys"" do together homo erotic, I just call it what it is, young boys being boys. That element pays itself out in this film. I found that refreshing and stimulating to watch."
+15051,1,Stay Away,"Jacque Pepin is one of the three finest cookbook authors of our day. And this book is his Waterloo. No wonder its out of print. Poorly organized by seasons, rather than food. This is its greatest flaw. Jacque's other books on my shelf are used constantly. This one gets dusty. Try ""Jacque's Pepin's Table"", ""Simple and Healthy"", the one with Julia Child, or either of the two authored with his daughter Claudine."
+15052,1,Not Very Happy With This Book,I'm afraid I didn't find this book very helpful. I forced myself to read a few chapters and was unable to relate to the writer. I'm sorry to say I would never recomend this book to anyone.
+15053,2,The best story I have ever read,"This was the first of Dick's stories that I read and it rocks!I love it,as it is by turns deeply, genuinely funny(not smart-alecky laughing at science fiction)and at the same time terrifyingly disturbing. Eldritch is set in one of Dick's characteristically bizarre futures.People have weird jobs and pastimes(minning?Perky Pat?)and their clothing is outlandish(shorts and colonial-type pith helmets?).And into this world is thrown a man who'll get you the ULTIMATE trip.For a price... The plot and the ideas expressed about our horrifying possible futures,are superb.And,as with most of Dick's material,the writng is very""pulp"":robots,rayguns,spaceships,precogs,telepaths,etc,so its a very easy read,despite its depth and intelligence.The sort of book where the actual experience of reading it is something to talk about for years afterwards.This is a barnstormer of a read.So out there and go and read it. It will tear your soul apart.You've been warned."
+15054,2,Review from Illinios,"This is a wonderful book, especially for young children learning their alphabet. My younger brother knows most of this book by heart from hearing it read to him over and over. He likes when after all the letters fall out of the tree how it explains how each one is jumbled and twisted. This book is fun for everyone."
+15055,2,I have bought several over time.,"I guess I have bought 4 or 5 of these now. They work well as long as the dog is within about 10 to 12 feet of you. I have one, my brother has one, my daughter has one, my Priest has one, and another friend has one. When people say they don't work; they are trying to use the product at to great of a distnace.A doctor I know bought a different brand after I told him exactly which one to get. He says it didn't work and gave a bad report. Next time he tells me to do something I am going to remind him of how he is always complaining about people who don't follow his medical advice. ""We have seen the enemy and he is you Doc."""
+15056,2,A Must Have,"Truly a wonderful travel guide. This is a must have for your adventures in Amazing Thailand. This book gives you all the information you need, when you pack for your vacation this will be the only travel reference you will need to take with you. A valuable tool in exploring Bangkok and the surronding regions. The maps inside helped us get back to our hotel on more than one occasion, a definate life saver and an essential necessity."
+15057,2,Just a tip...,"The waffle iron is great, as other reviewers have said, however...The J&R; Music & Computer World sale is $69.99 - look closely, shipping is a flat $5.70 per item PLUS $0.65 per pound. This waffle iron has a shipping weight of 13 pounds. Shipping is going to cost you $14.15. The price direct from Amazon's site is 79.99 and qualifies for FREE shipping. The J&R; ""sale"" price actually will cost you $4 more!Luckily I caught this before I finished my transaction."
+15058,1,Must have worked for somebody...,"I purchased this probably 4 years ago, and it was touted as extremely easy to use... it wasn't. Analog conversion was a non starter using a Sony Handycam. I ended up getting it to work with a canon digital camcorder. Painful process. VERRY PAINFUL. Well here we go again 4 years later and I'm trying to do it again. The unit does not recognize the handycam. It doesn't recognize a handycam with Svideo. I figured I would try calling the tech support line... 12 rings then busy signal... maybe a different number now? Go to the company website... they don't even sell these things anymore... If they were sooo good and sooo easy to use, wouldn't they still be selling them?? Do the math people. I spent $190 on mine, and it has been a glossy black turd from day one..."
+15059,2,Vintage Western Movie,Seen this one years ago. Purchased it so can watch again and again! Great western movie! If you like Clint Eastwood westerns then you will love this one!
+15060,2,Great for believer and thos who do not know where they stand with God,Wit my being a 75 year old widow I am in God's word every day and the devovional just added to my Bible reading
+15061,2,Great ideas,"Ordered the book for my teachers. It has many wonderful interventions ideas for individual students, small groups, and even class lessons."
+15062,2,Very nice plotting and curve fitting program,"Our research group uses Kaleidagraph daily for plotting and fitting data. The program is easy to use and powerful. We have used Kaleidagraph for years, and were very happy to see the new features in version 3.5. I would recommend Kaleidagraph for anyone who needs to do scientific plotting and curve fitting."
+15063,2,Perfect,I don't even use the alarm. The bed shaker wakes me up with no problem - and doesn't piss off my house mates!
+15064,1,"This Is ""Punk"" ?","I bought London Calling a couple of months ago. I Loved it. So then I bought this piece of $&@# , and man was it awfull. Give em' the boot."
+15065,1,"Large portion devoted to the ""evolution"" of the world","This book would be great if so much of the book wasn't devoted to our supposed ""evolution"". I expected some sprinkling of evolution, but I didn't expect such a huge emphasis! An entire section is devoted to this topic alone. Wish I had known this before I bought it."
+15066,2,A Game Changer,"Excellent, Excellent, Excellent, Bravo . Something that pertains real truth. This is a book that saves christians , Baptist, Koran, Torah and ETC lives. Cut away false pretenses and illusions."
+15067,2,Wonderful value for fabulous titles,"Scholastic's Treasury of 100 Storybook Classics is very appropriately named. Many of these titles are those that every child should hear before starting kindergarten and these are faithfully and expertly-rendered by the Weston Woods Studios with wonderful narrators and music. Indeed these are the videos librarians have been showing at story hours for years. While they don't make up for a good lap-sit or bedtime story hour with your child (a TV doesn't cuddle or hug or stop to exclaim or explain something on a page), they are perfect companions for sharing the best children's literature with your children while you are preparing dinner or driving the car!--Carol Levin, Youth Services Librarian"
+15068,1,Marvel Nemesis,"This is an excellent game for PSP, but compared to the excellent graphics and fun extras the home console games have, it stinks! The PSP version has a single player mode that gets very repetitive after a while, compared to the home console version that boasts a full, DIFFERENT storyline for each character. Also, the little gimmicks that make the home console multiplayer so great (funny intros, etc.) are missing comepletely! My advice would be to try this game on GameFly first, see if you like it, and then buy the home console version!"
+15069,2,Great product!,"This steering wheel cover is great! It looks exactly like the picture and is a thick, sturdy material. The only problem I have had with it is that it does not fit my steering wheel perfectly, so it slides around a bit. I have a Nissan Versa. But even that isn't much of a problem."
+15070,2,"Good, but not as good as Ong-Bak","When I first saw Ong-Bak (that was last week), I thought to myself, ""damn, this movie is amazing!!!"". I told all my friends about it. I was hooked on wanting to watch more of Tony Jaa's movie.Well today, I saw Tom Yum Goong and let me just say that the story was just too dumb. Some of the fighting scenes were too exagerated, like when he put on the elephant bone and started beating up guys twice or three times the size of him. Don't get me wrong, I did enjoy most of the fighting scenes, but this is definitely not as good as Ong-Bak. Ong-Bak was more realistic, and yet very entertaining."

Even when his audience doesn't initially laugh, he gets in a good zinger at himself and they laugh at that. He's witty without being condescending, and uncomplicated without seeing contrived. However, if you're not a fan of irreverant humor, this may not be for you."

Something everyone should have around their household."
+15076,1,Much more bad than good,"I ordered this DVD on the basis of some of the reviews - it was a big mistake. While Terry Dunn is very relaxing to listen to and obviously knows his stuff, the quality of the DVD makes its all but useless as a training tool. The DVD does not permit selection of the section I want to perform. The section that introduces you to the basic forms is so washed out that you cannot tell what the foot and hand positions are supposed to be.Finally, in the last segment where Terry performs the complete form, the camera pans in too often so that you cannot actually see the form from start to finish.Sadly, I highly recommend you seek another source of knowledge for this wonderful art. I know I will be looking for something better."
+15077,1,Below my expectations,"I found 3 problems with this toaster oven right away.1. I put the dial on the darkest setting and the bread is not fully toasted at the end of the cycle. It's barely light brown at that point. You have to hit the button for a 2nd cycle, although you only need maybe less than 30 seconds.2. During the first cycle, it starts emitting steam thru the front of the unit (along the sides of the glass).3. Unlike my old toaster oven from Black & Decker which I had for many many years, at the end of the cycle it doesn't ""ring"" to let you know the cycle is done. This means you have to stand there and watch for when it's done.Why did I throw out the box it came in right away, which is something I never usually do when I buy a new product?? Ughh."

My friend first introduced this movie to me and now I have watch it at least once a month if not more and I don't why I do it. My favorite scene in the movie is the Hot Tub scene with Luke loving it (tub) strong like, very funny. I am not going to explain the story so that is out the window. I recommend watching it and at first when I seen the dvd cover I did not think I would like but I got hooked right away so watch the movie and if you don't like then you wasted 90 minutes of your life (HAHAHAHA!) but I think you will like it."
+15079,1,Driver messed up my Mac,"Competing products, such as by Lexar require no driver. That is a good thing since after installing the software for this poorly engineered product my keyboard no longer produced the same characters as I typed. That is, I would type a ""0"" and a ""2"" would appear. Some whole fields would fill with gibberish. After problems with xD cards, a Fuji camera, and this reader, I have grave reservations about this company's products."
+15080,1,Not worth the money,"For the amount of money asked, I was expecting more information about tarpon, gear, and fishing tactics. Instead, what I got was a testimonial that one person likes to fish for tarpon - plus a short history of one former fishing site."

I was able to pull all of it off my ipod including the playlists back into my computer. This software works very simply and easily. I'm not in the least techy. If you own an ipod, you'd be foolish not to own this software. Absolutely essential software. I use this on a Mac."

+15085,1,Not unless you like wearing earplugs.,"I was drawn in by idea of a folding handle and retractable cord, but the cord is already failing to retract completely (I've only used the dryer about 3 times so far). I thought 1875 watts would mean a decent air flow, but it's only so-so. I have to keep it on the ""high"" setting to get my hair dry within a reasonable amount of time, and my hair isn't that thick or long.However, my biggest complaint is the EARSPLITTING noise! I wish I'd read the reviews before my purchase, because the critiques about how loud it is are absolutely on the mark. It's not just a high pitch, as suggested by one reviewer. It's an extremely loud hiss that sounds like an industrial factory operating at full capacity, inches from your ear. The ""low"" setting is not quite as loud, but as I explained earlier, the air flow is so wimpy at this setting that you might as well not even bother. I'm going to try and return this thing before I go deaf."
+15086,1,"Heats unevenly, sticks badly, poorly made","Maybe mine was just defective, I don't know. But it never did get uniformly hot. The food had to be scraped off (yes, I have other iron utensils, and have no problem with them). And the scraping process was rather difficult because of a good-sized burr in the middle of the pan. Since the coating also got chipped in shipping (poor packing), I ended up returning it."

+15088,2,Book makes GÃ idhlig fun and interesting,"I bought this book after seeing it in a store, and I just had to get it. What makes learning Gaelic fun from this book, is that there are cartoons to illistrate what the characters are doing and saying. Plus, there is a grammar section at the end of each chapter, or each set of cartoons. And, there is a minidictionary and grammar section at the back.This is the perfect book for those who just want to see what the language is like and for those who do not want to be burdened with grammar lesson after grammar lesson."
+15089,1,A mild let-down.,"I read this book in its entirety while queuing for a NIN gig in London. When the line moved up, the book stayed behind.'Going Under' is an amateurish psychological murder mystery with, at best, only a bland 'surprise-ending.' I concede that Wright seems to me an author worth reading in his own 'wright': his prose is both elegant and memorable. Thus, the book comes recommended as a time-killer -- if you've a few hours with nothing better to do -- simply for its distinct and stylish prose, which is clever enough that you will wish the plot was half as good."

+15091,2,Let the Good Times Roll,"This is the Faces at their rawest. It's a album that was meant to be seen more than listened to. I had the privilege of seeing them live during this period. This was like watching a good ole bar band getting it on. They sang & drank Matus (wine) on stage & just appeared to have a great time which in turn made us feel great too. Yes it's a wee bit sloppy, but it's honest rock'n roll. Feel So Good just makes one want to get off one's arse and boogie."

I MEAN, NOTHING ON THE LP COMES CLOSE TO THE CATCHY HUNG UP SINGLE - AND FOR THIS, LADY MADGE HAD THE HELP OF SUPERTROUPERS ABBA. AND IS IT JUST ME, OR DOES ANYONE ELSE FIND HER HUNG UP VIDEO UNREAL AND PREPOSTEROUS - DOES ANYONE REALLY BELIEVE THAT A 47 YEAR OLD WHITE LADY WOULD BE DANCING IN A BLACK CLUB WITH TEENAGERS?

+15095,1,The nightmare will have to end soon.,"NSync is a perfect example of a huge marketing project that has risen to immense heights. Behind this ploy is MTV and the drones that watch TRL. MTV can, and will, make stars out of any artist they choose. The music doesn't matter. This CD is proof of that. The lyrics are horribly trite. The music is a digital headache. It's all about the images - nothing more. No one could listen to this more than once. Ahh..but MTV can plaster their faces on the screen and jam the images down our collective throats. Over time, they become the megastars they are.Hope is on the way though. These guys are getting older with each day. Try as they might, the magic they own now will fade as sure as the sky is blue. It's going to end soon - despite their plea in track 1 that it won't.To be fair - this music is for kids, so why take that away from them? When is the next music revolution going to take place? Who will be the next Nirvana? Please let it come soon."

+15098,1,One star is too high,"Very poor video quality. While I didn't expect it to be Bluray, I did expect it to be better than SD. It's like looking through a fishbowl. A rip-off. Don't waste your money. There is no excuse for selling a product with this poor quality. Notice the rater who gave it 5 stars did so before even seeing it. Duh! It might be closer to okay if you have a small screen, but on a large screen it is a huge disappointment."

+15100,1,Just not the same,I was in the market for a new vac & have had 2 of these with extreme delight in the past 16 years. This one came broken and much to my disappointment I will not get another one. The factory non-800 phone line would not send me another belt to fix the one I received(already broken). They only said send it back or take it 25 miles to the service center. I will be buying something else.
+15101,1,Maca mud,"Unfortunately, I never got any of the benefits of the Maca Magic Powder because I couldn't use it. I couldn't use it because I couldn't get over the taste. It is definitely an acquired taste. I'm sure it has healthy qualities but if you have a sensitive palate, you may want to find your antioxidents and vitamins elsewhere."
+15102,1,"good idea, bad execution","As other reviewers have mentioned, the photos are grainy. very grainy. However, left unmentioned was something even more troubling - many of the photos have been digitally cropped in photoshop or some such program. this was done presumably to save ink by not printing backgrounds. The cropping was done extremely poorly and amateurishly - there are toes that come to points, feet that look like blocks, all sorts of bizarre and unnatural concavities. a real hatchet job. the end result looks like someone took a pair of scissors and crudely snipped photos from a magazine. this sort of problem is particularly distressing in a book intended for artists as the accurate depiction of the outer contour of a form is vital for drawing.On another note, the models are not actually that thin. more average. This would have been a useful book, if not for the botched photos. An older edition would likely be satisfactory."
+15103,1,Non-experts making lame mistakes,"The production quality wasn't bad but the information presented was pathetically biased and incorrect. The slant about how Jesus killed all the old gods was stupid and unprovable. Then they got several details horribly wrong. Just one instance is where they say that Freya was Thor's sister. It takes about 3 minutes of research to see that there is absolutely NO grounds to say this as they were from separate tribes of Gods and had different parents. Last I checked you had to have the same parents to be brother and sister. If they would pull one easily falsified ""fact"" out of their butts like that then it is a little hard to swallow the other parts. Also, the section on Hades was pretty lame. Apparently in Christian mythology Hades was god of the underworld/place of the dead before Christ despite the fact that their doctrine was that there was only one God EVER! The ties between pre-christian and Christian mythologies is contrived and poorly argued."
+15104,1,men's studies as travelogue,"This book could have been called ""In Search of Male America."" The writer is a free-lance author who hunts around the country to see what men are doing and why. It has diverse chapters, essays on cosmetic surgery, gun lovers, leathermen, etc. Unfortunately, it's descriptive, rather than analytical, and just feels like pages upon pages of ""yak, yak, yak."" The author tries to be funny often and usually fails. I am glad that even journalists are starting to show an interest in men's studies. However, this texts leaves much to be desired. Highly unrecommended."

+15106,1,Display woes...,"This has been the most useful of all our baby ""gear"" --such a wonderful gadget to have in the home BUT! Recently the video display stopped working, so now we just have audio. AND, I purchased it less that a year ago. Thumbs down!!"
+15107,1,Last Man Was Last Chance,"David Balducci here proves the old saying that some writers only have one good book in them. Absolute Power was a knockout, I recommended it to everyone I knew. Following that, he published several disappointments but I kept hoping he'd find the old formula again.I put this book away with the marker on page 87. Enough is enough. The charactrs are wooden, the set ups preposterous and the action comicical. Balducci expects us to take everything about his character on faith, but gives no plausible reason why we should.I would love to see him try to diagram some of his tortured run on sentences. Where is the editing? Where is the restraint? Where is Stephen Hunter when you need him?"
+15108,2,Just what I wanted,Normally I do not like A frame style tents but this one is quite comfortable. It has screens on both ends to allow good air circulation and keep the bugs out at the same time. You can also close it up completely to stay warm. Plenty of room and easy to carry attached to my pack.
+15109,2,Favorite of all time!,"Bought this game a couple different times, but as windows evolved this would not work on newer versions of windows. A shame because the game is a blast!"
+15110,1,What happened to Kaplan,"Since I used Kaplan flash card in 1990's it was great and effective, but with this new product, I don't know what happened, the quality of the card are very bad, and they are so small and need a lot of effort to read it."
+15111,1,"Well meaning, but not very good.","With all do respect to the author, I still cannot figure out what the purpose of this book is. I found myself bored after 12 pages. Means well, but this book does not deliver. You will get a far better education, understanding, insight, and better read by purchasing ""Noah's Ark: Fable or Fact?"" By Violet Cummings. I write this with the utmost respect."
+15112,2,Couldn't imagine a better book!,"A friend of mine sent this to me in the hopes that I would like it. I didn't want to finish it because I just did not want it to end. Its told in first person narrative, Penelope is a very British 18 year old (Something she gets teased for by her friends) who is madly in love with Johnnie Ray (someone who's fame I had been oblivious to until I read this book, I now know better).The book gets off to a very interesting start with her recounting how she meets her soon to be best friend, Charlotte. And then the story really gets moving, Charlotte's cousin Harry proves a great character and Penelope's brother Inigo is almost as interesting. Slowly the four of them learn about how their families had met up before and how their lives have changed from knowing each other.I can't say enough about this book, it takes itself lightheartedly but addresses some serious issues, living in post WW2 England, rationing, being a teenager on ther cusp of womanhood, its FANTASTIC!"
+15113,1,Cant polish a turd.,"All in all this album is such a let down when compared to JEW's back catalogue.All the glossy production on this album cannot disguise how weak the songs are. It sounds like a band disinterested in what they are doing and it seems like Jim Adkins spent 5 minutes on the lyrics. I mean, some of the lyrics would even make Blink 182 balk.Dont get me wrong, I am a huge Jimmy fan but this record is the work of a band just looking for one last pay day. I hate to say it but I think we have heard the last of Jimmy Eat World. I very much doubt they will release another album. By the sounds of ""Futures"", their heart isnt in it and their mind was on futures elsewhere.I really hop I am wrong."
+15114,2,"Cute toys, but there are many better ways to get one.","These are cute, but I've seen identical/very similar products at my local Dollar Tree. They stretch a good ways and are just fun to handle to give your hands something to do.Also, these toys are not centipedes but in fact much more closely resemble caterpillars."
+15115,1,CRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAP!!!!,This movie was nothing but rubbish - it went absolutely nowhere. It wasn't even funny - I hardly got a chuckle at most.I agree with everything the other people have said that have given this movie a 1-star rating.DO NOT make the same mistake as me and buy this DVD - rent it first if you REALLY want to waste 2 hours of your time...
+15116,2,very good buy!,"I bought new headphones and the problem I had was the length of the cable, but with this product ... is were the problems!"
+15117,1,Horrible Hair Dryer,"I purchased this hair dryer for $200 with the T3 volumizing lotion and Orlando Pita styling brush. I have never been so disappointed in a ""salon quality"" hair dryer. I am a blow-dry addict who watches my stylist closely when he blows my hair dry. I am very good at getting a salon quality blow-out at home. I used this product for 4 months, and it is sitting in the back of a drawer now. If I wasn't so busy, I would send it back and demand a full refund. I feel like I was duped. The strength of the dryer is poor, which results in dry fly-aways. It also does not get hot enough, so after you have spent 30 minutes blowing your hair dry, it looks like it is still damp and has been blown out with a super market dryer. I have used the babyliss and solano hair dryers in the past, and am going back to them. Don't fall for the hype - this company may have a great publicist, but the product falls short."
+15118,1,Nicholas & Alexandra,This book has such small printing that it is unreadable. I can't imagine Amazon letting this go on. I wound up getting the Kindle edition. Do not get the mass market edition.
+15119,1,Disappointing,"It is very misleading the way in which the author and publisher of this book try to pass it off as an appreciation of Watchman Nee and his work, when it is rather just a poorly researched, somewhat arrogant attempt at showing that Nee was unduly and improperly influenced by the Chinese culture, an assessment that I find both racist and not in the least supported by any of the author's actual writing. In fact, some of the innuendoes levelled against Watchman Nee are so totally inappropriate that they only serve to expose the author for an apparently gross lack of discernment. The book also has a number of blatant factual errors which could be picked up from even the most cursory reading of the text.Not recommended."
+15120,2,Baby likes it.,"This teether has rubber sides, and smooth plastic sides. Baby can twist it around and have a good time smacking you and himself with it. If you are a nervous wreck that doesn't want to be smacked with a teether, then maybe the knuckleball one would be better for you. But the baby seems to have a good time biting this one and waving it around and smacking himself with it. Baby likes it; it gets on my nerves. But I give it 5 stars because baby likes it."
+15121,2,Just excellent!,Nice and excellenet performance!. I bought two more of these for gifts to my family members.
+15122,1,Don't waste your money,"Not enough info. Don't waste your money. You can find more info online for free or buy the book by Dr. Karen Becker, a veterinarian who has lots of great info on raw diets. You will LOVE the results you get from feeding raw to your cats and dogs; it's made a tremendous difference for our pets and we'll never feed any other way. They live much longer in addition to having optimal health. Check out the truth on vaccinations, too so you don't destroy your pet's immune system by re-vaccinating. Dr. Jean Dodds has plenty of info online."
+15123,1,Waste of money and a general pain,"I bought this item because it was recommended on Alton Brown's show and looked like it would be good because you don't have to scrape out a measuring cup BUT you can't pull it back to add another ingredient after you have put in the first ingredient because the top doesn't stay on the inside cylinder. If it was screwed on instead of clamped on, it would be a better design. Even in using it for only one ingredient it falls apart, takes a lot of space for storage, and doesn't always get clean in the dishwasher."
+15124,1,*boos*,"The tea didn't make me drowsy in the slightest and tasted nasty. I've barely had tea in my life, so I checked to make sure I was doing it right the second time, including adding a second bag of tea to see if I just had low sensitivity, but still nothing happened, and it just tasted nastier. Judging by the other reviews, I guess I'm unlucky?"
+15125,1,Cheap plastic,"If you are looking for a quality utility knife, don't get this item. It appears sturdy at first (weight feels ok, and the plastic of the handle is also ok) but the blade holder mechanism is a joke. The blades don't sit tight in the knife, no matter what you do with the screw fastening mechanism. So when you cut something, the blade comes loose, and in the worst case, slides out of the handle. Poor quality and poor engineering."
+15126,1,Ripped off,"This item was a ripoff. It is advertised as a full size replica helmet at 73% off, you will receive a mini helmet at a higher price than you could have paid anywhere else. The mini helmet itself is a nice helmet, just not what I paid for.The seller (Online Sports) claims it was Amazon who gave the wrong description and after waiting a week for a response they best they could do would give me a 20% discount on a helmet I already overpaid for or return it. Remember when there was customer service and companies actually took responsibility for their mistakes. I want what I paid for, I want what was advertised and I want to pay the advertised price.Do NOT buy from Online Sports on Amazon, they will only take your money and run"
+15127,2,A Great Workout DVD,I have bought most of Bob's workout DVDs and love them. They are a lot more intense than Jillian Michael's and have really delivered his promise.
+15128,1,Really a bit rubbish,"Doesn't work. Really unacceptable lag on the functions even in plain line of sight. Even the Mac updated software V1.0.4 is woefully inadequate, no way to configure in any way other than 'Hacking' using Applescript (Tedious process - frankly, life's too short). OK, I thought I'd give it to my friend to control his PC iTunes with, from one room away (about 20 feet). The thing actually doesn't work from about 8 feet away when slighty round the corner of a bookshelf. Maybe wood to RF is like lead shielding is to Kryptonite - I don't know. This thing is pitiful. I'm taking it back and getting something that fits my only criterion: That it should work."

+15130,2,very nice!,"I bought this pedal used from a friend and it is about 4 years old. It has performed very well and has amazed me by its performance, I have a Tama iron cobra and no joke I prefer the pearl. The only reason 4 stars is because the spring tension set needs to be replaced now because it is no longer staying tight and I have to adjust it every song although it is 4 years old:)"
+15131,1,Dissappointing,"I am a huge GH fan, but this was a huge dissappointment!!! Don't waste your time or money ordering this one, skip it!!"
+15132,2,It works,Its cheaper than buying the same cord from the name brand stores that always try to sell it to you the same minute you purchase your HD tv. They charge 50 and better for these inexpensive cables if there is a difference with the end results of the name brand cable and this one please let me know.
+15133,1,not for me,A reasonable price and a good beginning but what seemed to be a thriller turned into a slow love story with some mystery thrown in. Wasn't my cup of tea.
+15134,1,I'd rather forget this experience.,This book was sub par and did not capture the mood of the old man. I would not recommend this book.
+15135,1,Very disapointing...,"Not well sealed for all weather purposes. Then I dropped on the front lawn and it broke. This product was a big disappointment. Good for a light to keep under the kitchen sink, that's about it. Next I will check before buying another Chinese flashlight."
+15136,1,Very poor - this is why...,"Never, I repeat, NEVER allow Biblical/Theological scholars to create their own guides and tools like this.This edition of the Strong's brutalizes the original edition, changing word meanings and etymologies to reflect Christian doctrine, not keeping true to the original Chaldean/Hebrew and Greek texts.Don't believe me? Use an original Strong's to look up Hebrew word #430, elohiym. This is given as the name of God throughout the NKV bible but in fact if you do a word etymology shows that this is a female plural word about a group of lesser, inferior gods.Follow this, and the key to Truth is yours. Don't listen to the lies of this edition of the book which changes and eliminates words which are tricky for Christianity to explain away. Man cannot be trusted to take care of knowledge properly, and this book is a prime example why.Get the original Strong's. If you seek the truth about the world you live in, that is."
+15137,2,Simplistic Fun,"Ok, so it may not be the world's best music. In fact, it's far from it. However, everyone needs to listen to a little bad music now and then...and David Hasselhoff is about as fine as it gets. You want music, look for Pavarotti. You want fun, it's all here. We even have dorm sing-a-longs...get drunk and sing Hasselhoff, what could be better than that?"
+15138,2,Whoa! Cost too much!!!,A quick search will show you a price for $363.00 on the internet. Amazon isn't THAT convenient to almost pay double....
+15139,2,Delightful music!,"The movie adaptation of this classic story was done so well by Disney (as if that would be a surprise to those of us that love Disney)...it stands to reason that the music would be fantastic as well. The original scores are so easy to learn and sing...I play this in the car almost daily for my children and we love to sing along. The music is moving to adults, and fun for children. I am sure that some of the concepts are lost on my little ones, but I know that they will come to learn the meaningful message this movie portrays soon enough. Right now they just love Quasi and Esmerelda. Quasi is a lovable character, but certainly not much to look at, which is why I love him so much. It shows that beauty is certainly the most vivid when we view it from within. What a wonderful message to send to our children in this world today, when looks and money seem to matter so much and the virtues mean so little."
+15140,2,EXCELLENT!!,GREAT MOVIE!!!The chemistry between Clooney & Lopez is the best I have ever witnessed on screen!!! This is J.Lo's best film too date!!! She needs more strong sassy roles lk this!!!!!I love this movie!!!One of the best movies ever made!!!
+15141,2,Outstanding book - great science fiction,I thoroughly enjoyed this science fiction twist. How hard it was for them to go back in time and try to adjust to way below our modern culture and have to learn the languages of that time. Great story.
+15142,2,I am proude to have this product..It's wonderful phone at this price,It's really amazing product at the lowest price with all the features..till now wi have not notices any issues with product..hope it works fine in the future too..:-)
+15143,2,bath boats,"overall, I'm happy with this purchase. The boats seem well made and we like the drying bag them come with."
+15144,1,Be Warned,The Good News-High quality DVD of 20/20 News report as originally broadcast 10/10/85.The Bad News-Missing Forever Young performance +it's a DVD-R with purple dye.Now you know!
+15145,1,PRO' S & CONS,"I hav had some w/fans and some w/out, none are any good after 3 too 6 mos. Best choice is with a little ingenuity thinking. I removed the cover from the laptop, set the eternal pc in a non magnetic bag, took the case, removed the feet put on by the manufacturer and put in all 4 corners adjustable chair glides w/rubber feet, put it back together, front feet screwed all the way in and the rears extended all the way out, giving me 4 inches in the rear, w/plenty air space under my pc on the tray made for it too sit on. IT NEVER GETS HOT ANYMORE.I am 76 yrs old.thx 4 reading"
+15146,1,Don't buy this,"These CD-ROMs have lots of information, good graphics and sound, but are very difficult to navigate. There is no way to exit or end. I had to shut down my computer to get it to stop. There is no point to using them if you can't use them easily. I would not recommend this product."
+15147,1,Dumbest Book Ever,The premise of this book is that every culture from ancient times until recent have 5 different types of leaders each with their own strengths.It's really dumb. I think it would be difficult to write a book that has as little insight as this one. The 5 different leadership types might as well be horoscopes. It's all just a bunch of made up stuff about leaders that Sidle claims MUST be true because it's all supposedly found in multiple cultures (which by the way he provides little evidence of other than anecdotes).I read this book because I was a candidate for a scholarship at Cornell which the author runs. I would not have read this otherwise and I would not recommend it to anyone. It's just silly.If you want to read a book about leadership read something by Carnegie - at least there's real advice in that one.
+15148,1,"Better than handwriting, but not as good as a printer","I have not been very happy with my CD Stomper. I have a difficult time getting the CDs and labels to line up properly. Often, the label overhangs the edge of the CD a little bit. The perforation around the middle of the labels show whether or not I pop the center out. It usually take me two sheets of labels to get one good label, and I waste two or three CDs. You can not remove the label once it's on there, because it peels the foil off the CD.The labels do look nice and peel off the backing very easily. When it lines up right, the CDs look great.I chose to use another program to create and edit CD labels. The only template Avery has is in Microsoft Word format, and it did not line up right when I printed it. So I made my own template.Overall, I found the CD Stomper to be OK, but I would not choose to purchase this again knowing what I know now. Our CDs looked much better and cost less time and effort when I printed directly on to the CD."
+15149,2,not adaptable,"I bought this grinder as part of a total coffee upgrade for my kitchen. Unfortunately, not all the pieces were Gaggia, and the portafilter for my Saeco espresso maker would not fit the doser bracket. The grinder did a fine job with the coffee, but I returned it because I couldn't use it in my kitchen. I would have appreciated knowing before hand that the doser would only hold a specific size espresso portafilter baskets. Buyer beware."
+15150,2,A balanced history and a welcome warning for the future,"Jeffrey Victor has given form to the nervous dismissal most of us might feel when faced with claims of a massive Satanist conspiracy. He's done fantastic amounts of research and weaves between courtrooms and sociologist themes with a well-tempered ear for detail. In times where we learn to assume that the worst is possible, I'm thrilled to see someone debunk an extreme end of the ""regress and confess"" school of accusational therapy -- because nobody will take actual abuse as seriously while this Satanic nonsense distracts. Plus, it's a fun read for anyone who digs crime lit or Oliver Sacks books... fine work."
+15151,1,poor quality,They are good for two uses tops. My first one burt up a motor in 15 minutes. The second made it to the second chore before the motor burnt up again.
+15152,1,scary for the wrong ressons,"I will make this review short.This film is worse than battlefield(absolutely vile and abismal, spit,spit,spit,curses,curses,curses)earthnuff saidp.s that owl stil haunts my dreams."
+15153,2,best recently-made film,"this is m. night at his finest, wishing you would all just believe.this is a modern-day fairy tale told by a modern-day prophet. this movie will make you want to change the world."
+15154,2,"Excellent read for both men, and the women who love them...","This is an excellent book for both men, and the women who love them. My three sons are going to read this as well.(Matthew 8:22) But Jesus told him, ""Follow Me, and let the dead bury their own dead.""Learn to live!~Ken"
+15155,1,Adam Hersh Posters Rip-Off,"I ordered 2 posters 12-22-06 and they sent one small poster in a 13"" mailing tube. After numerous emails and promises of receiving two posters for my trouble, still nothing. They have not responded to my last 3 emails. The loss of a small amount of money is not the issue, it's business integrity, and they have none! I have all the emails, tracking number, and mailing tube if anyone from Amazon (a great company) would like to see them. I hope Amazon will discontinue selling for this company as it may tarnish their great reputation."
+15156,2,Jean Claude or Richard-Who to choose....,"Once again, the author keeps the action coming. L. Hamilton does a great job of letting her female lead be stone cold tough when she needs to be without losing the soft, but down to earth feminine side. Anita is one tough customer,who ya just can't help but like. The guys in her life are just as interesting. One can't help but understand Anita's dilema in chosing-they both seem tasty. Any of L. Hamilton's books are a good, entertaining read. While not necessary to understand them, do start at the beginning of the series for the most enjoyment."
+15157,2,best toy ever!,"my toddler and all his friends use this toy constantly. They take feathers from a boa and watch the feathers fly around, besides just the balls. The only drawback is that things can get stuck in there and it may take a while to get out - but it's a very well loved toy."
+15158,1,Save your money for something better,Very simply...not interesting to any kids I know. My child would rather use the car as a teether than play with the set. We gave it to our child for Christmas and it's the only toy that has gotten zero playtime. There arer much better toys out there!
+15159,2,Great book for every mom and child!,This book helped me through alot with my daughter. I've learned to understand and appreciate her more. Recommended!
+15160,2,Great Zombie Novel!,"Having picked this book up, I found that I really couldn't put it down easily. The author does a great job of slipping in the back story of the end of civilization as we know it. You keep finding out little bits and pieces of what has happened to the world and where are all of the people bit by bit. I am particularly pleased that the author chose to make his zombies, zombies and not the Carl Lewis, sprint faster than the wind zombies that were in the last Dawn of the Dead movie. These zombies shamble which is what they do quite well. Really enjoyed the building tension. A little bit bummed though that this is only part one of three. It ends on a bit of a cliff hanger but that's not going to stop me from ordering the next book in the series."
+15161,2,Great Book but Wish for Matching Hypnosis CD!,"I bought a few hypnobirthing CDs, and books from different sources. Mongan's book is great and very practical to use for any type of person. I wish she had a package you could buy with a hypnosis CD or two. Of all the products on this topic, hers was the best. Unfortunately, hers is the only one I bought used. I wasted a lot of money on inferior hypnobirthing products elsewhere. There was one other site which I enjoyed; they were guided imagery tapes [...] I had my baby very comfortably using these methods!!!! I heathly seven pound girl in April!"
+15162,2,Simple and Elegant,"When I saw these lollipops for the first time, I was impressed. The flower design is not perfect, but it looks really elegant. It looks like a glass design. My wedding has a dasy theme and these are going to be party favors at my wedding.S"
+15163,2,Ancient Rome brought to life,"I picked this book up in a thrift store, never having heard of it. I have a casual interest in ancient Rome and am currently living in Naples, so I thought it would be fun to read. I was astounded by how complete and real Colleen McCullough has made ancient Rome. This book is incredibly well-researched. Every detail adds to the richness of this world. The reader really becomes subsumed into ancient Rome and the characters are exceptionally substantive. The glossary alone is worth reading.The only drawback was the writing was a bit stilted in places, but I would still highly recommend this book. In fact, I have been recommending it to everyone. I cannot wait to read the rest of the series."
+15164,2,A wonderful approach,This book filled all my expectations. I'm working in the advertising field and it gave me many lights about the way the people can be funneled into strange behaviors. The language is easy and the examples very well selected. It's funny (and scary) to realize how easy can our acts be directed by other people. It's a gem.
+15165,1,Have a real body? Skip this book.,"If you have wide hips, big thighs, or narrow shoulders, which are some of the most common body issues women have, you will find this book useless: these issues are not even mentioned. You'll also get no help if you have a combination of issues - like both a ""big butt"" and ""no boobs"", as the authors describe them - because what you should wear to hide one problem might accentuate another. The fun approach and decent explanations of the issues that they do address can't make up for not addressing some major points."
+15166,2,Funny and easy to read,"I try to read more now that I have AP English Lit. However, I'm a slow reader, but I finished this book after two sittings. I completed the book; I plowed through an allegorical analysis with a former Eng teacher while I visit my locker, and I find Voltaire's work truly remarkable and timeless."
+15167,2,Aunt Dimity and the Deep Blue Sea,"The books by this author are imaginative, gripping, not scary, all wonderfully different and make excellent bedtime reading! The books maintain interest and there is no violence, overt sexuality or murder in any of the books by Atherton - and, in spite of this, each book is hard to put down!"
+15168,1,HOOT,"MY daughter really wanted this movie and it was scratched very badly, I was disappointed that her Christmas gift was such poor quality"
+15169,1,What a piece of crap!,"I have not baught this cd player, but I do have experience with them. I have owned at least three of them in this price range and I am distrought about the lack of options that come with this item. I looked at the technical information on this, and saw some of the basic functions like hold, and resume as a no. If I were you I would not purchase this cd player."
+15170,2,Three good essays for the Dutch Art novice or scholar.,"Perhaps the best thing about the three essays published in this exhibition catalogue is their readability. You don't need to be a student of the History of art to appreciate and understand them. However, they are by no means dumbed-down either. The images chosen for the exhibition are truely lovely. There are genre scenes, sea scapes, still lives (both floral and breakfast images), church interiors, and potraits. It is a wonderful little gem."
+15171,2,UNKLE!,"Unkle's debut album Psyence fiction is their best album in my opinion. It's a must have classic for every trip hop collection. A load of great artists came together for this album. The Album cover is beautiful for display, great artwork. Record plays fine except for a few skips on one of the tracks."
+15172,2,The Only Live Dead,"This is defintely one of the best Grateful Dead Live CDs EVER. BUY THIS ONE! The Dead was on the ball these nights especially Garcia with outstanding guitar solos. The first song ""Bertha"" has a ripping guitar solo and the ""New Minglewood Blues"" is my favorite live version. All around, the first set is incredible with many diverse songs. Set two has a great ""Playing in the Band"" and ""Estimated Prophet. Set three has by far, the best ""Scarlet/Fire on The Mountain"" jam I have ever heard with Jerry taking it all the way on his envelope filter. Trust me, I have heard tons of live Dead CDs and this one is one of the very best!"
+15173,2,The Fat Girl Wins!,"So the book's a bit predictable, ok horribly predictable, if you keep with it you will be delighted and surprised. So much honesty is hard to resist."
+15174,2,Would Rate 5 Stars If Made in USA,"My wife and I first saw these at John Howie Steak in Bellevue, WA. The warm olive appetizer is served in one of these baker dishes. We liked the size for that type of application so decided to order from Amazon. They are exactly what we expected as we have quite a bit of the All-Clad copper core cookware. Like most manufacturers these days it seems more and more things are being made in China. These bakers are no exception. Is it really THAT much cheaper that something this small can't be made in America? Even the lids on the Copper Core are now made in China.Aside from the complaining the pans work well and are attracive."
+15175,2,A must read for all investors.,"I've always believed that there are two things behind everything that gets done on Wall Street and in government. There's the excuse they give you, then the reason. The excuse for the markets existing is that they provide a way for producers to hedge risk and to acquire working capital. True. This happens. But the real ""reason"" for the markets is to separate little guys like you and me from our money. The book is dated, but what he has to say is still applicable today."
+15176,2,Complete Calvin & Hobbes,THis is an amazing collection of all the Calvin and Hobbes comics ever written. It includes an introduction about the author and his works dating from 1985. My 25-year old son (a major fan) and I love the collection. Four volumes on very good quality paper. The four volumes in a sturdy case make it a challenge to lift.
+15177,1,THE TRUTHS REPLY!,"by dumb kid "" The songs on the c.d. were all good but the best one was #7 (Leave get out) because this is the one song I and every one else can relate to. Most girls will like this c.d. but I don't know about the guys.

JOJO DOESN'T EVEN WRITE EXCEPT 1 SONG. SHE SUCKS AND IS A FLOP. AT LEAST KORN WRITES LIKE ALL THEIR STUFF. YOU ARE SO DUMB YOU LITTLE WHITE PIECE OF TRASH WHO DON'T KNOW TALENT. KORN IS WAY BETTER AND SO MUCH MORE TALENTED THAN FAKE MANUFACTURED 1-HIT-WONDER JOJO!"
+15178,2,WOW>,"I was skeptical when I purchased this. After all a litter box is a litter box right? How could it make that much difference? Wrong! This is so easy to use & makes it much less of a hassle to clean the litter box. Just roll it over onto its top then roll it back over. Take out the tray & dispose of the waste. No more scooping, no more dirty scooper laying around & a lot less mess. The cats seem to like it too. I left the other litter box so they could make the transition & they immediately stopped using the old box & started using the new one. Wish I had discovered this litter box long ago."
+15179,2,Great Light For Nighttime Ballers,Since buying this light we've been outside all times of night (2-3am) playing basketball. The way the light towers above the hoop makes shooting into the basket no different that it would be shooting during daytime. Yes it's that bright!! Glad I purchased this light.
+15180,1,This is an awful execution of a good design,"It worked well for 12 cherries, but the unlucky 13th caused it to completely fell apart. This issue is that fulcum of the three levers is only held together with a weak plastic compression connector (read this as a TRULY crappy design). If you hold the connection together, you can sort of make it, kind of work...well, no, you really can't. This is worthless."
+15181,2,Awesome!,"I only ordered this DVD for the movie "" The Hearse"" I received so much more! I am so very Happy!"
+15182,2,Fits Pentax 645N,"I recently purchased a used Pentax 645N. After about ten minutes of research online, I determined that this was the correct strap for that camera and - lo and behold - it worked like a charm.It does what a strap is supposed to do: keep the camera from hitting the floor when I let go of it. The thick padding does make it easier to wear than the straps on my other cameras - in fact, I'm thinking about picking up versions of this strap for those ones, too."
+15183,2,excellent sound quality on two classics,"If you are a fan of Blue Oyster Cult or just curious don't hesitate to take advantage of this awesome package deal.The sound quality is superb, these two classics never sounded better, and the price makes this disc a bargain, two albums of material on one disc."
+15184,2,Amazon needs to sell the original version,"The directors cut is very disappointing. The original with the voice over is better - it fits the piece better as does the music - and even the supposed happy ending is better because that happy ending is tempered by ford's character saying he didn't know how long they'd have together, but then again, who does..."
+15185,1,Fraud,"I read this once, and enjoyed the writing. I later learned that the tribe the author claims to be a part of, in fact, does not exist. It's sad to see Native culture co-opted and fictionalized, but that's exactly what this book is."
+15186,1,Miniature Edition-- Be careful NO ONE notices that !!!!,This product is garbage.If you look at the picture it says Miniature Edition.It is NOT the same as the Full Edition of this book by the same name.it really just went right in the garbage.it told me NOTHING useful.....I saw the Full Edition in a book store & that is the one you want...
+15187,1,Misguided,"Although I did find parts of this book funny, I found it to be horribly irritating; I wanted to slap Nat, and Babs, oh and yes, Franny, too... truth be told, I wanted to slap the whole crew. What I found most troubling was the cover leads the would-be-reader to believe it is about a young woman discovering herself after her best friend gets married. This is true, but what the book focuses more on is the characters severe eating disorder. If you've had an eating disorder you can probably relate, but is that why you bought the book? Probably not. If you haven't had a disorder, then Nat will most likely come across as spineless and annoying.I *really* wish I had read the reviews before spending money on this book."
+15188,2,This album and all other Nirvana albums are the best!,"If you like Nirvana, you'll love this. This record is only a few songs, but these few songs are a few of Nirvana's many best."
+15189,2,"Yes, Yes, Ya'll!!!","I just purchased this album 3 days ago and have been bumping it since then. This album is a fabulous mixture of house, Afro-Latin grooves, some Orisa chants, and just dope beats. You can chill with you friends or a good book with it, but you'll more than likely want to get up and dance around your living room like I've been doing. My only problem with it is that it should have come out earlier, this would have been my soundtrack for the summer! The songs are all excellent, but my favorites (and yes, it was hard to choose!) are 1) Yemaya, 3) El Musica, 7)I Might Do Something Wrong, and 13) Tribute (a beautiful song with an afrobeat influence. I'd love to talk more about this CD, but I gotta go dance!"
+15190,2,Great hiding spot !,This is a great hiding spot for a key. I do wish the plastic on the bottom was a little bit sturdier and less thin but it suits the purpose. It mixes in and isn't the slightest bit obvious looking. The rocky top is a little rocky -ish to the touch too.
+15191,1,Would be great if I could watch it,"Never mentioned in the description that this was a PAL video from another region than the USA. An omission that means a lot. I was at this show, have seen clips, and was looking forward to seeing the entire thing now, 11 years later. Be forwarned - if you get this and live in America and do not own a multi-region player you will be out of luck."
+15192,1,Horrible Battery life,The bike looks very nice and it's lots of fun for the kids but the battery runs out to quick after using it for 15 mins the battery is dead. Not recomended waste of money.
+15193,2,Great If you want to see Tai Chi and Bagua in a movie,"This is basically an edited-down to movie length version of the TV series and therefore suffers from several continuity problems from a story point of view. Having said that, the fight scenes more than make up for the patchy story and if like me you have been longing for some more authentic looking tai chi and bagua in a movie then this is well worth getting hold of."
+15194,2,"twice the price, but valuable","After moving to New Orleans I decided to forgo cable and go to over the air television reception. I had heard that HD OTA was good. I chose this unit rather than the Antennas Direct because it is enclosed (for the landlords visual objections) and includes a stand. It works better the higher you can get it even in a city with no tall buildings like NOLA. I get way more signals than my Tivo guide knows about. Some of them have digital carriers with no content, waiting for next year I suppose. On most channels the digital signal is far superior to the analog. Good antennae."
+15195,2,Tenor Overcomes Synthesizer,"I love Ron Naldi's voice! I've known him for years and worked with him in the ""old days"" at the Bronx Opera Company. Hearing him at the Met always gives me a thrill. He sounds wonderful on this recording, which has live mandolin and accordion, but either the orchestra is a synthesizer, or it sounds like one. However, the engineering is such that when Naldi is singing, you don't notice it. Bravo!"
+15196,1,Rollers are terrible,"I have had to replace the rollers numerous times. Quality of rollers are terrible, they will flatten out after a while and will make it hard to go up and down. Do not leave any weights on it when not using. Otherwise it is a very good product when rollers are good."
+15197,1,Mr Coffee Replacement Decanter,This pot only lasted a short time before the handle came loose therefore making it unuseable.According to some of the other reviews this is a ongoing problem with this product.
+15198,1,Stupid and Predicatble Hollywood Star Glitz,"The only thing about this movie that is like the original is the title. The entire movie seems like nothing but a way for Russell Crowe to show everyone just how tough, sexy and cool he is. Everyone else in this movie seems like a complete idiot or totally corrupt. Apparently only the bad guys in this movie can shoot straight. Even when the good guys have the upper hand they never take advantage of it. The ending makes no sense at all. Why would Crowe suddenly turn on his own men and kill them? Why wouldn't Bale's character shoot Crowe's character rather than let him escape? And of course at the end they have to leave the impression that Crowe's character can escape from prison because then they can make a sequel for more money. From the impression I got from listening to Peter Fonda in a interview on NPR about this movie I expected a much better movie. Don't waste your time. The whole movie is just an ego trip for Russell Crowe."
+15199,2,The Lost Boy: A Foster Child's Search for the Love of a Family,It arrived in good condition and earlier than I expected. I was very satisfied with this purchase.
+15200,2,Required reading for men!,This book is an amazing five-star book for men and should be required reading for all high school males.Why?So they can be on the look out for the predatory and highly deranged women that actually use and believe this garbage. I think the only thing they didn't cover in the book was the exact process with which to properly prick a condom with a sewing needle.
+15201,2,great vintage looking clock,"Reminds me of my Grandma's from her kitchen years ago. If you like vintage, this is the clock for you"
+15202,2,"EXCELLENT, EXCELLENT, EXCELLENT!!!","In this fabulous film, heroine Helen is physically thrown out of the house by her philandering, abusive husband. Crying in a UHaul filled with her things, being driven by the delectable Orlando (Shemar Moore), she finds herself at the home of her grandmother Medea, who takes her in. But Medea doesn't take kindly to her granddaughter's plight at the hands of her husband...and thinks that a little attitude adjusment may be in order......This is a film that has something for everyone. Medea and the other characters that Tyler Perry portrays bring that great comedic element; there's certainly drama in the love triangle created by Helen's lawyer husband, and in the touching struggle of a father whose love for his wife is overshadowed by her addiction to drugs; and then there is the birth of a great love...between Helen and Orlando. Add to all of this a foot-tapping soundtrack, and what you have is a true recipe for success. This movie cannot be missed.DYB"
+15203,2,A True Artist of Words,"Title: Inside Out (See Me)Author: Ronald Reginald KingGenre: PoetryAPOOO Rating: 4.0Amazon Rating: 4.0Title: A True Artist of WordsInside Out (See Me) by Ronald Reginald King is a beautifully written poetry book. Mr. King's style of poetry covers a variety of topics that we can all relate to. Amidst the words of his poetry, Mr. King allows the reader to take a peak through his kaleidoscope and experience his personal feelings about life, his spirituality, sense of family, importance of relationships and love. While reading this book, I came to feel and understand how the title of this book was chosen, Inside Out (See Me).If you are a lover of poetry, with an appreciation for words that have the ability to bring a smile to your face and a sense of peace to the soul, then I would highly recommend Inside Out (See Me) by Ronald Reginald King.S.E.

+15204,2,Odds & Gods,"Now I'm not a big blues fan, but there's something really accessible about Green's work. As you've probably read in previous reviews, this is Fleetwood Mac's version of The Beach Boys ""20/20"", that is, it's full of singles & b-sides released by the record company, to cash in On Fleetwood's success. But they, by accident released a really strong album.So if you like your blues in small doses, then this is defiantly one to try on for size.."
+15205,1,twisted,Same as Moby Dick only on land. They hardly changed the story at all. It's kind of a rip-off actually.
+15206,2,This works for gi joe research,I've did art turn around of one of the characters from the DIC season 1 and I enjoy seeing all of them and the vehicles in action.
+15207,1,CUP RUNNETH OVER,"THIS COFFEE MAKER DOES MAKE A GREAT CUP OF COFFEE. I'VE OWNED IT FOR OVER A YEAR NOW. THERE HAVE BEEN ABOUT 12 OCCASIONS NOW WHERE THE COFFEE MAKER HAS OVERFLOWED, LITERALLY BACKING UP OVER OUR COUNTER AND CUSTOM CABINETS. I HAVE TRIED DESCALING, CONSCIENTIOUS OF NOT SPILLING COFFEE OUTSIDE OF THE BASKET AND CONSTANT CLEANING. I THINK THAT THE CULPRIT IS THERE ARE TWO LITTLE PLASTIC BALL BEARINGS WITHIN THE COVER OF THE POT AND WHEN ONE OR BOTH DO NOT OPEN, IT CAUSES A MAJOR COFFEE GROUND OVERFLOW, WHICH SPILLS ALL OVER THE COUNTER AND DESTROYS MY CABINETS. IT DOESN'T HAPPEN EVERYTIME, BUT WHEN IT DOES WHAT A MESS! WAKING UP IN THE MORNING TO THE SMELL OF COFFEE AND FINDING A MESS INSTEAD IS NOT FUN."
+15208,2,All I expected,"I have had an older model of this same saw for years, and when I wore it out I was looking for another like it at a good price. The only difference between this one and the old one is the tool-less chain adjustment, which I like a lot! It really cuts wood like it's slicing cheese! This was the best price I could find, the shipping was free, so it's all good. My only complaint is with the case. I like to carry extra things in the case, such as head phones, a hatchet, brush and wedges, in addition to the chain oil and extra chains. This case is smaller than my old one, so I used my old one. Also, the case should be flat on top, for a working surface in the field, as is the case with the 18"" saws Poulan makes."
+15209,1,Should have read the first review,"Motor worked once during installation check. Initially would only go half way across the window but after a few runs, it operated normally. Couple of days later, the rains hit and the motor failed to work. Nothing at all, voltage is getting back to motor, but motor not working. Two reviews and a year in between. Don't buy this one. I guess new doesn't mean operational."
+15210,1,Don't waste your money - buy 3rd edition used.,"The back cover states ""Thoroughly updated for it's Fourth Edition"". Not true. The only difference between this and the 3rd edition is that the three Clinical Problem sets at the back of the 3rd edition (pages 347-383) have been replaced by a set of additional questions called the Maintenance of Certification Primer (pages 345-375). In the first 345 pages there may be a few questions that have changed between the 2 editions but I haven't found one yet - even chapter 7, the Pictorial Atlas, is unchanged. And I suspect the same will be true for the 4 online practice exams. Bottom line - buy the 3rd edition used for about $2 and save yourself $60. Still, this book is ok for FP boards as is Swanson's."
+15211,1,Yuck.,"I got this disc ...the cover art looked cool so I opened it and pressed play.Yuck.Head Shrinkin Fun is a very mediocre recording by a very mediocre surf-punk band. Now don't get me wrong, the musicians sound accomplished in this style of music..and they do it somewhat well. But after hearing things like Dick Dale, or even The Ventures, this is weak in comparison. It seems as though all the songs sound the same to me. I just don't find much worth to this CD.2 stars for being rather dull, repetitive, and not as good as others in the genre."
+15212,1,BAD QUALITY,This is a pitiful attempt to make a touristic video about Venezuela. Do not buy it. It is preferably to download one that is on Youtube.
+15213,2,Huge grinder,"I didn't realize how big it was (about a 2"" diameter), but it gets the job done, and the pollen catcher is quite good."
+15214,2,Great Tech Person Tool,"I bought the Sabrent case after borrowing a friend's several times to help people recover data from IDE/SATA drives that would no longer boot or appeared to be dead. In conjunction with my personal collection of software recovery tools, I found this case to be a very handy way to safely pack a drive away and access it via USB instead of the old way of cracking open my computer box and fussing around inside there exposing my hardware to potential risk. The Sabrent case simply makes for a nicer work environment. If your a tech person and have clients coming into your work area, it also makes you look more professional."
+15215,2,Manufacturer Worlds Apart Limited,"My 3 children ages, 3, 5, & 7, all LOVE the bed. We have a ""Hello Kitty"", ""Spider-Man"", and a ""Princess"". They have got so much use out of them. I rated the educational value at 5 because the kids will get into the beds and listen while I read a book, instead of sleeping on the bunkbeds and watching TV. Of course 2 of them got holes in them. I went online and found the number for the company and they are sending me 2 FREE mattress'. (The covers have been washed frequently and are in perfect condition) I don't even have to pay shipping. As much as my kids have used the beds, I knew they would eventually get a hole in them. They are for SMALL CHILDREN!!!!! Kids ALWAYS have small sharp items on the floor, such as a necklace, play ring, etc., but I cannot believe I am getting the mattress for free. I do not know if I can put this on here, but I am going to try because I saw ALOT of bad reviews. (...)"
+15216,2,Machismo Par Excellance,"It never cease to amaze me how awesome Frank Miller is as BOTH artist and storyteller. If you have had the pleasure of enjoying his earlier works, and honestly what comic book aficionado have not, this is a must have.If you seek a compelling story about unrelenting bravery and honour, this is definately also a book for you. In so many ways, 300 is a refreshing forray into traditional macho virtues and values, something rarely expressed in a sensible way in today's society.So for all the big boys out there, get 300, kick back in your favourite comfy chair and gush with delight as King Leonidas does the unthinkable at Thermopyl."
+15217,2,Zico coconut water,This is the best tasting coconut water out there!I have tried many but Zico tastes like it was just poured from a freshly plucked coconut.
+15218,2,Tyree's Tattoo Library,This book is really cool if you are not sure what type of tats to get. But I got for my son because he can draw and figured this could get him started on different designs and styles.
+15219,1,Nickelback's little brother,"I don't have much to say here, everything's already been said. This band sounds exactly like Nickelback, only not as good. If you like this kind of music, Nickelback's Silver Side Up is the way to go. We don't need no stinking vikings, and we don't need no stinking clones either. If you want to know what this album is like, go see Silver Side Up reviews with this in mind : ""...only worse"".After that is said, I always try to find something positive in every record. Sometimes I can't, but this time I got lucky. Of course, if you've heard the single Make Up Your Mind and you think it's the best song ever, then buy this right now ! If you think Nickelback is the best band in the world, there's a good chance you'll like this too. And that's my cue to leave !"
+15220,2,Traveling to Europe? Make sure you pack this book.,Kevin Wright's book on Catholic Shrines in Western Europe proved to be an invaluable asset on my recent pilgrimage to Rome. It contains a wealth of information on numerous religious sites in Europe that no other travel guide offers. If you are planning a trip to Europe consider taking spiritual side-trips with the help of this book.
+15221,1,It Broke after 1 month's use,"Worked well at first, then a rubber band broke and I could not fix it, piece of junk!"
+15222,2,not caldwells best,"The story comes along in a time when historical mysteries are quite popular. It, therefore, did not come across as a particularly creative subject, nor inventive. It is another story of students who are out to discover historical truths that have been hidden from the world. I did not find the plot to be engaging, nor did I find any surprising twists to keep my interest. The story, however, is well written. It simply needs more inventive ideas and lots more surprises!"
+15223,1,HE REALLY ANNOYS ME.,Fat joe is a talentless loser who needs to lose some serious weight.This album is stupid and boring.All the beats sound the same and his rap style is crap.You will find many copies of this cd in the used section of any record store.DO NOT SUPPORT THIS CRAP!!!
+15224,2,realisticly scary,"One of the best gostly mysteries. I could not put this book down.will read it again, and again.marge"
+15225,1,Damage Control for the current President,"I found this book to be based on a kernel of truth wrapped in innumerable layers of unconfirmable speculation (how many people really have access to intelligence agency archives?) and one-sided 'analysis'. It is clear the Bin Ladin was 'lost' at Tora Bora when our troops were called back to garrison, allowing him to escape. This goes even farther to the right than Micheal Moore goes to the left.If you want a look at the subject from someone who was involved through several Administrations, read ""Against All Enemies: Inside America's War on Terror"" by Richard Clarke.If you buy this book, you are paying for propaganda."
+15226,2,Changed my life,"One of the hardest things I have ever done in my life. The first two weeks were difficult, but after that you find yourself wanting to do the exercises. The hardest workout I thought was yoga. After 90 days I saw great results and dropped 18 pounds."
+15227,2,Nutritionist Soy Milk Maker is Great,It was easy to use and there is no beany taste. The money I'm saving offsets the time it takes to clean it. I like my machine and recommend buying it.
+15228,1,At least this time they're open about plagiarism,"This album is a bunch of Zeppelin rip-offs just like everything else released by Great White, Whitesnake, and the other ""Led Clones"" of the 1980s."
+15229,2,There's sum things about you I wish I never knew....,"Punk with a brain. Not just a band with a cool video and a catchy hook. Witty, smart lyrics that make you laugh and think and pogo your little beatle boots off...Thats how I would describe ALL. This is my favorite album by the rawkers. From the cute kid charm of 'Frog' to the worldly aware ""just living"", ""sum"" and ""educated idiot"" you will dig this amazingly fun and wildly amusing bunch of punky tunes. Think Pinhead Gunpowder or Cringer but only more cool and fun and smart..."
+15230,1,Funny but not always fun,"Ghost takes over bodies for their sex energy. Really. Must have been a rough week for the writers, though some of the tech created for this episode is done nicely. Not bad, not great. Sexy if you're seventeen. Consider this episode a bologna sandwich on white bread with mayonnaise...nothing else. It fills you up but doesn't nourish or inspire."
+15231,2,Fantastic,"I loved this book, couldn't put it down. I finished the book in one day, looking forward to reading the authors other books, just wish there was more to Kristina's story."
+15232,1,"Fast, faster, or even faster...","This mixer has many speed settings, but they all pretty much go the same speed. The ""low"" setting is so fast that if you are mixing much liquid it spashes all over. I would not recommend this mixer, spend a few more dollars and get a better one!!!"
+15233,1,Costs less per application to rent,"My first machine broke after three uses. I figured it was just accidental and I would try it again. My second machine lasted about the same time, three uses. This time it didn't exactly break. It just stopped cleaning. They seem to do a nice job on the first use. The quality of the job then deteriorates rapidly. I doubt if the people who rated this machine five stars, had the opportunity to use it more than three or four times. I am now looking for another good quality machine, but definately not Bissell."
+15234,1,disturbing!!!!,I was absolutely disgusted with the film. Don't read the other reviews as I did. After I watched this movie I actually threw it in the garbage. This is just another one of Stephen King's warped sick mind.
+15235,1,"Huge disappointment following ""Silence of the Lambs""","I clearly remember being ""spooked"" reading Silence of the Lambs back in 91 and looked forward to Harris'sequel with anticipation. What a let down! The first three quarters of the plot is well-paced and sets up the potential for a good finale. The final outcome, however, left me fuming with disbelief."
+15236,1,And now let us save the universe (even as we fornicate with aliens),Many good ideas in here. Except that when all of these are thrown in together with the kitchen sink and anything else that comes handy it turns into kitsch.Mieville might be (or become) a good writer. If he can get out of the SF/fantasy ghetto and get himself a good editor unafraid to ruthlessly prune the author's excesses.
+15237,2,Classic Piece of Music,"This CD is an outstanding piece of Classic Music that is a treasure to anyone, anywhere. It took me 3 years to find itand lo & behold I found it on Amazon. Many Thanks."
+15238,2,A Great Book,"This is one of my daughter's most treasured books. She loves the dream/fantasy of becoming a mermaid for the day, and thinking of all the things she would do in the sea. I took this story to her preschool and read it to the class. It absolutely enchanted the 3 and 4 year olds! The art is beautiful, and so is the prose. Highly recommended for kids (especially those who dream of being mermaids themselves)!"
+15239,1,I understand the bad reviews.,"The Ninth Gate begins promisingly enough, a tale about the search for a book that was written by the devil. After the first 10 minutes, the movie goes downhill, but slowly, considering the snail's pace this film moves. Add to that an incoherent script and you've got a camp classic."
+15240,2,Great balance board for a toddler,My two year old received this for a birthday gift. He loves using it and is quite good at it. He has a great time with it.
+15241,1,fake is supposed to at least look realistic,"Very disappointing. It does not look AT ALL like throw up. We also ordered the Giant Vomit by Loftus and it is far funnier and realistic. This one looks like a translucent petrified jelly fish with dabs of fingernail polish applied. Seriously? Wish I could return it because it ""doesn't look enough like real barf"", but I am not sure that was a guarantee. Go for this instead, trust me:Giant Vomit"
+15242,2,Shower chair review,This is a very good and inexpensive product. It is small enough to fit in my smaller than ordinary bathtub. It is very stable and comfortable to use in the tub. I recently had shoulder surgery and this stool has been invaluable to me. I received it in a timely manner; a good value for the price.
+15243,1,Just a mediocre series,"This show should be better. Talented actors, high production value. But, the writing is just OK. Unfortunately, I think Gabriel Macht is badly miscast in this show - just not masculine and commanding enough for how his character is written. Patrick Adams is terrific, but the more they try to make him the bumbling protege of Macht's character, the lamer it gets."
+15244,1,Flimsy and Seams Coming Apart,"I think it is a hit or miss on this product. I have a friend that has a Playhut and it is fine. We just opened ours and at least 6 seams are coming undone (not sewn correctly), there are a couple holes in the material, 2 forgotten attachment loops, and it is rather flimsy. Kids still like it, though it isn't going to last too long."
+15245,2,yes!,"This book takes you through the art of astral travel like noother,with the exception of Robert Monroe's 1st book.If you want a fun read, this is it!It also works!Good info here."
+15246,2,"Long, entertaining Dickens story for the car.","I listened to the unabridged audio tape version of this book narrated by Michael Page. It's one of those deals where you listen to each tape entirely on the left channel, then play the whole tape again on the right channel to get the next part of the story. Which is kind of awkward, since you forget which channel you were on if you also use your stereo for music; but these editions are probably the least expensive (by the hour) audio tapes you can buy.I think Dickens' tendency toward exhaustive descriptions works a lot better when you're listening to it in the car than when you're reading it in print. I might never have had the patience to read the actual book while sitting in a chair, but listening to it in the car was pretty entertaining. Colorful characters, humor, suspense, unexpected plot twists; I can picture a lot of it in my mind even now. A recommended story."
+15247,2,Fiskars Quality,"These pruning shears were purchsed for my Mom, who is new to gardening after her recent retirement. Typical Fiskars quality! Very pleased."
+15248,2,original mario kart fun,"I was expecting that it would be better than other mario kaart games but it was just like the classic, which is good enough for me. It is a lot of fun and keeps you entertained for hours."
+15249,2,Life goes on,Ive met James Prosser when he was in the Pine Mountain.He is a great singer and has talent that will take him far.And not to mention great looks but most of all he is a very nice man.Every time we went to the show he was so sweet and would take pictures with our family every year.My grandfather loves that and so do I. I wish him all the luck and I pray for his family.
+15250,2,Good Book,My daughter and I enjoy books about dragons. We read everynight for atleast an hour. I even find myself reading ahead after story time to see what happens next.
+15251,2,Gripping Novel About the Loss of a Child,The novel is a wrenching page-turner about a woman's loss of an adult daughter and her subsequent attempts to cope and live. The author artfully describes experiences of the mother and the dead woman's friends as they provide each other with memories and support needed to adapt to the sudden death of a young woman whom they loved. It is the best book I have read all year!
+15252,1,Super 80's Camp Cheese,"A big-hair 80's movie with Dean Cameron as a rock-and-roll vampire, Thomas Dolby as the pirate antagonist, Toni Basil as the sex crazed vampire mom...cheesy doesn't begin to cover it so nuff said. Still Toni Basil sure could dance."
+15253,2,Such a good movie,"Very funny, makes me laugh every time. Definitely worth buying instead of renting. Just a great movie. Probably not appropriate for kids though..."
+15254,1,too immature a product to buy,"The first one I got had a dead radio. The second one would only work if the SSID was left at the default of ""linksys"". I had to change the SSID of my access point and all the adapters to get it to work! Even then it loses the signal frequently and currently won't get an address from DHCP. A good idea, but I'd wait until they work the bugs out of it."
+15255,1,Even worse the second time,"I wrote my original review for this book about a month ago. Then, I figured I may I missed some info and I decided to read it again. After seeing the one negative review out of all the others here, I thought that was sour grapes. But after I read it agian, the reviewer was correct. This man is more shallow than a kid's pool. I have no doubt that this book was just another attempt to make more money, too. He continuosly talks about his BMW, mercedes, and of course, his vacations. At the end of his book, he talks about his future goals, and taking his marriage to the next level is number 6!Also, he mentions that 'matinees were a stretch'. Are you kidding? I don't think that someone at rock bottom thinks about the movies at all. Did anyone notice that he seemed so in love with Tony Robbins, too? In the end, a terrible book that is not worth the read."
+15256,2,Best historical fiction since Shogun,"Since reading Gates of Fire I've been hooked on Pressfield's work, both fiction (Killing Rommel is another favorite) and non-fiction (EVERYONE should read The War of Art!). But not since i read Shogun more than 30 years ago has a book transported me through time and space the way Gates of Fire does. The setting is so real, the characters are so genuine, and the action is so believable that you can almost hear the din of battle and feel the fear and anguish of those on the killing lines of one of the most important battles in the history of the world."
+15257,1,Enjoy,"I purchased this album after hearing a (1) song from it. The songs in this album are both new (to me) and (old classics). All of the music is compelling and exciting. You can listen, dance or exercise to the music and none of the songs are boring or lacking in an rhythm that makes you want to move."
+15258,2,the cats seem to like,I was worried.. I have been feeding ferals as well as a princess cat.. she's a hard sell but the ferals gobbled it up (as did racoons and possum).
+15259,1,DRM order cancellation,"Unfortunately, Amazon will not allow me to cancel this order so it will need to be a return later. Aggressive DRM should not be tolerated and the best way to make an active stance is to cancel existing orders and let the community know why."
+15260,1,Not too good.,"If you're looking for big gains then look elsewhere.Pros:- 'stylish' for an antenna (some would think)- multiple adapters includedCons:- 4db is not much of a boost compared to other antennas- attached base does not tilt/swivel, so you're stuck with vertical orientation- fixed 2ft cable is too short if you need an extension, but too long if you don'tMight be useful to someone with an under-desk system unit who needs to get the antenna up onto the desktop, but does not work well on either my SMC broadband router or D-Link repeater."
+15261,2,found this again,Great smell for my night shift job. One of my favorite colognes of all time. Will continue to buy this
+15262,1,Nasty,I almost gagged when I had this flavor. I can't believe so many people actually like it. I had to dump it out.
+15263,1,bad speaker phone,"I love the talking caller ID, but I also bought it to use the speaker phone feature. The speaker phone fades in and out. I was going to take it back and get another one but after reading the other reviews, I'll just take it back and look for something else. I'm very disappointed."
+15264,2,Not bad for a labeler under $30.,"Slightly annoyed by the amount of tape that it wastes but for under $30, not a bad purchase for someone who needs a labeler on occasion. If you are a bit OCD or like to label everything, perhaps you may want to look elsewhere?"
+15265,2,A Worthwile read - but it loses some credibility,"Like others, I picked up this book expecting more comedy and less on the conspiracy theories. The book is actually a reverse of this, although Belzer does sprinkle some amusing comments throughout.I found myself engrossed with all of the JFK conspiracy theories and the arguments were clearly well thought out and well researched. Unfortunately, I didn't feel the same when the discussion turned to alien encounters. While some of the facts were compelling, some of the theories completely contradicted each other. I found myself NOT buying into the alien theories, and that in turn seemed to make the JFK conspiracy theories lose a little credibility.A worthwile and sometimes fun read if your interested in these topics - but make up your own mind..."
+15266,2,Excellent protein supplement,"My son recommended this for my recovery from heart surgery six months ago. My wife and I have been taking it ever since. I think NOW products are good across the board, and this one is particularly good. I'd recommend the ""natural"" flavor over the ""Dutch Chocolate."" The natural flavor doesn't require a much to constitute the same amount of protein, thus saving money, and the natural has a very neutral flavor. We use it in a smoothie every morning with lots of different nuts and Green Vibrance and a banana. Makes for a very filling breakfast. I think this product really helped in my recovery."
+15267,1,Memorex DvD-RW did not work,My Canon DC100 would not write to these dvds. The disc came up as unreadable. I tried all three and was unsuccessful in recording or reading the disc on my Canon video camera.
+15268,1,Where is Rhubarb The Cat?,"I am glad that I read the reviews from those who bought the aforementioned video thinking that they were going to see Morris' relative. Someone really is ""missing the boat"" in not having this all-time favorite on video!!!!! This is an excellent family movie, which is one of two favorites from my childhood, the other being ""Harvey"" and I have that video. About a year ago, I had email messages with Movie Mom and she agreed that we should have access to this movie. Maybe we should start a movement to get ""Rhubarb"" on video because, not only would I like to see it again, but I would like my niece and her family to see it, too! Does anyone have any sugestions?! I am quite serious about this. WE WANT RHUBARB (the cat)!!!!! WE WANT RHUBARB (the cat)!!!!! WE WANT RHUBARB (the cat)!!!!!"
+15269,1,movie About Cherry,Didn't get a chance to bring it up and did not have time to watch. so thank u I might have to purchace it.
+15270,2,Hello Kitty meets Schrodinger's cat,"This is admittedly a strange format for a quantum mechanics book. However, if you do skip over the cartoons you do find a lot of mathematical steps and insights more conventional books do not bother pointing out. Many students learn the mathematical underpinnings of QM as a bunch of symbol manipulating tricks. This book delves into the math and provides the rationale for much of those hitherto mysterious steps.I give the book four stars as the authors' usage of cartoons is often annoying and juvenile. Those who worked on the books could have used this unusual format to target a mature audience if the cartoon characters did indeed provide insightful commentary - which they often did not."
+15271,2,"even for original instrument crowd, this is just perfect","Even the most fanatical ""original instrument purist"" should give this one a listen. Though apparently played on modern instruments, these are nearly perfect performances in every way. Warm, appealing charm that captures the real spirit of these optimistic pieces from the Renaissance. I have modern & ""period"" performances of the Renaissance ""Terpishore"" dances which open the first disc, and some are quite good. However, this collection outshines all the others. Also bravo to DG for the great remastering. For example, any trace of noise seems to have dropped away completely leaving clean, enthusiastic performance. These musicians clearly honor Musicality above anything."
+15272,2,THE MOST INCREDIBLE MOST BI-ZARRE VIDEO EVER!,"THIS VIDEO FREAKED ME OUT! A MASTERPIECE BEAUTIFULLY DIRECTED BY CHRIS CUNNINGHAM WHO DID VIDEOS FOR MADONNA AND LEFTFIELD. ALL THE LADIES' BODIES ARE SEXY BUT THOSE FACES---YOWCH! ALL DIGITALIZED FACES OF RICHARD JAMES A.K.A. APHEX TWIN. THIS IS MY FAVORITE VIDEO OF THE DECADE-VERY FUNNY AND VERY ORIGINAL (...)I'M GLAD I DON'T HAVE MTV ANYMORE. THEY DON'T PLAY TECHNO VIDEOS AND DEFINITELY NOT THIS CLASSIC DUE TO SCENES OF SEXUALITY AND THE 1ST 4 MINUTES OF VERY DIRTY LANGUAGE (...). YOU MAY THINK IT'S A RAP VIDEO BUT AFTER 4 MINS, THE VIDEO GOES 360 DEGREES AND ALL HELL BREAKS LOOSE!"
+15273,2,I Want One of These!,"I don't even own this lens but I can't wait until I do. Usually photo submitters blame Amazon's website when a photo doesn't look crisp and sharp; not a boo-hoo here about how the photo looked better until Amazon compressed it. This is my first lens review although I've reviewed, for months, the photos taken with many, many Canon lenses on Amazon's site. I can truly say this is the best lens yet. With the exception of a couple of user errors, the photos are just like they are supposed to be - beautifully contrasted and color saturated, crisp, sharp and brilliant. This lens is amazing - the rest will be up to you."
+15274,1,Just Say No,"Positive - lots of tools.Negative - lots and lots and lots of menus and screens.Even the most simple task like editing home video is now three times more complicated involving different programmes within the toolbox and different pop-up windows. Whatever the opposite of intuitive is, this is it.Too many features look like half-baked bodge-ons from Roxio rather than a thought-out whole. And don't expect any help at all from Roxio. For a laugh, you should visit their product forum, where members of the public try to help each other to get Roxio's stuff to work, having completely given up on support from the software house. I have to admire the company's candour and bravery for hosting the forum, because it is one long list of complaints!Frustrating to use, I wasted my money upgrading from VideoWave 5 to this, don't make the same mistake. Should have bought (and now will buy) Power Director instead."
+15275,1,Expected Features Lacking,"I expected a 3-mailbox system to have three passwords for remote reterival of messages. Instead, there is only one, which means that everyone knows what each other's messages are.The directions are also a bit confusing, although I finally stumbled through the set up.Otherwise the unit works fine!"
+15276,1,History as He Does Not Know It,"The concept of extinction did not exist until the nineteenth century. Until then there was no sense that species evolved, lived for a time, and then went extinct. Because religion still held sway over so much of the world, there was a sense that everything God had ever created would still be found - somewhere.- Peter Ward ""Life as We Do Not Know It""""Thirdly, That there may have been divers Species of things wholly destroyed and annihilated, and divers others changed and varied, for since we find that there are some kinds of Animals and Vegetables peculiar to certain places, and not to be found elsewhere; if such a place have been swallowed up, 'tis not improbable that those Animal Beings may have been destroyed with them; and this may be true both of aerial and aquatick Animals:...""- Robert Hooke, Discourse on Earthquakes, 1667"
+15277,2,Very Portable!,This is a really handy tool. You can do pretty controlled freehand cut on baseboards and plywood. The quick change system is excellent and you can change the blades in no time. It is small enough to fit it my aluminum briefcase when the blade is removed. When you are working around the house it is really convenient to have it. I leave my jig saw and circular saw in the workshop. It feels like a hand saw with more power. By the way this tools cannot replace jig saw or circular saw. The flush blade is also very good. The tool is lightweight but feels solid and well built. Variable speed goes from zero to six.
+15278,1,Misleading,"Everything is fine and dandy except the fact that it doesn't come with the USB cord to hook the printer to the computer, and that IS a LITTLE important. Also, I have Windows Vista, and the printer is not compatible with it, I have to download a patch, but that was my own fault. I guess you get what you pay for..."
+15279,1,Lousy,"Sound quality is about like hearing someone trying to talk to you with a pillow shoved over their face. Terrible. I got it as a ""bargain"" along with a rebate. Tomorrow it goes into the Dumpster."
+15280,2,Good overview of the WTC story - some photos would help,"I found the first half of this book a fascinating and detailed account of the 9/11 World Trade Center tragedy and its immediate aftermath. The book takes you many places the news accounts didn't, and reveals some pretty amazing facts (e.g., there were actually people inside the buildings who survived the collapse). The second half, where he delves into the bureaucracy surrounding the demolition and recovery efforts is interesting but less dramatic.The book has one serious flaw though - other than a crude map of the site inside the cover, there are no photographs or illustrations at all. Even just a ten-page insert with some photos of the key people and places he describes would be a huge improvement. Trying to tell a story of this magnitude with text alone is a noble effort, but it falls short."

+15284,2,"After the 2000 elections, this book is far more entertaing!","Very entertaining... watching Eddie Quinn doublecross the bosses and the fat cats, only the hardest of the hard-hats could root against this happy represntative of the hard-hats.... the plot twists and turns throughtout the book.It's hard to figure on who Eddie Quinn most reminds me of by today's political standards. Mix in a little Bill Clinton, a little bit of Ross Perot and a dash of ""Dubya"" and you have yourself an Eddie Quinn. By all accounts, this book will have you thinking of the 2000 election.Also, most people don't know, but George Bush (the father) has read this book and really enjoyed it."
+15285,1,"Yawner, a waste of time...like Moore!","This is truly a crock-u-mentary...the ""facts"" are flawed hyperbole surrounded by slick garbage. Don't waste a penny on this trash..."
+15286,2,Mesmerizing,This is one of my favorate movies ever! It has a dream-like quality and the characters were real for me. I identified with them and the film connected me back to my youth.

+15288,1,time for a new clock,"We've owned one of these for about three years. The wireless outdoor thermometer stopped working within the first year, and now the projected display is missing some segments. The weather forecaster says it's raining sometimes when the sun is shining."
+15289,2,GREAT SHOW - GREAT SEASON - even Brooke Shields,"I love this show, I lived the seventies! What a cool time to grow up! In this set, I especially enjoyed seeing Brooke Shields play Mom to Jackie and girlfriend to Bob. The scene where Jackie and Donna discover Pam (B Shields) in a hot tub with Bob is too funny. Jackie and Donna joining forces to try to split their parents up is a hilarious change. Aaah - the Seventies!I noticed a review from a customer with skips, freezes, etc. If you have a problem with freezing, skipping, etc with a disc from a boxed set, try playing it in a friend's DVD player to be sure it isn't your player. Back in 2003 I returned two different boxed sets of ""Keeping up Appearances"" thinking both were defective. Skips and freezes showed up in same place on same disc with both BOXED sets. With the third set, I decided to try in a friend's DVD player. It played perfectly. The problem had been my player all along. My defective player was a RCA DRC220N - discarded since 2003."
+15290,1,"This trap is toy, and does not work at all","I puchased the trap, first it was dificullt to set it up and at the same time install tha bate on the tray. This trap has two sides for the animal to enter, and there is only one entrac emight catch the chicmunk, or mouse, the other dor, animal can enter and stand on the trap tray and eat the bate and go out without being cut.Problem: The trap is to short for the small animals to be cut, because the tail of the animal prevents the the trap door close properly, therfore the animal can scape the trap everytime. The trap should have been 13-14"" long to acommodate for the tail. I am sorry to purchase a toy rather then a trap. I waisted alot of nuts"
+15291,2,Great photos and User Friendly,"I searched, compared, and waited for the technology to be put in a small compact package. This camera has a lot of excellent automatic and manual features for taking great night and day photos with excellent color. It also has a 30 second movie option with sound that is a lot of fun. I like the fact that I can plug right into the television to view photos and movie clips. The software is also nice. I would recommend buying an extra battery and much larger compact flash card."
+15292,2,GREAT PRODUCT!!!,"I have been trying another product which has not worked for me in the past, finally just started to take viastat. WOW! I was knocked off my feet when i started using it. It improved everything that needed to be ( would not like to get into detais )but you should know. ;)"
+15293,1,Disapproved of the plot!,"After reading 'Henley's 'Pirate and the Pagen, Raven and the Rose, and the Falcon and the Flower', I found that 'Hawk and Dove' scored the same as 'Dragon and Jewel' on my 'read again only if on a remote island and there are no natives to talk to'. Virginia Henley is one of my favorite authors! I loved all the characters in the three novels mentioned above, however, as I stated in reviewing 'Dragon and Jewel', I was disappointed by 'Henley', but alas, I own 'Pirate and Pagan (disapproved of the adultery plot), Raven and Rose, and Falcon and Flower', and they are my cherished 'dime store purchases'. Maybe I disliked this novel because at the time I was reading 'Hawk and the Dove', I kept thinking, if that was my husband cheating on me with me, I would slip poison in his wine goblet."
+15294,1,"Love rope toys, fell apart very quickly","I feel that rope toys are almost ment to fall apart. My always do and it flosses my dogs teeth. However, as soon as she got through on of the ropes in this knot the whole thing fell apart and I have pieces everywhere. I have had dogs my whole like, they have always loved rope toys, however, NOT recommended."

We've made it work due to the cost of replacing it however on Friday the plastic seal around came off. I wouldn't buy this product again."
+15298,2,Birth of Slowhand,"How can you not enjoy hearing the seminal recording of the greatest guitar player that has ever lived? When one dismisses the recording as poor quality or rubbish one should take into consideration that the recording equipment available to a teenage white blues quintet in 1964 was not top of the line. Listen to the way the crowd cheers as the five young Yardbirds are introduced. Eric ""Slowhand"" Clapton had already made a name for himself on the London music scene, but thanks to this album the rest of Britain, and now, the rest of us, get to hear greatness out of this awkward looking 19-year-old would-be original guitar god."
+15299,1,Bad printing,A few pages of the print were off.One page is quite bad that I can't read.Can I get a refund?
+15300,2,A visual treat from the oral tradition.,"Gosh, this is great looking - the atmosphere, the neon, the pompadours, the cast, the bikers, the Blasters, the retro cars. The music is first rate as well. Nobody dies, there is no bloodshed (except a bloody nose from fisticuffs).As another reviewer aptly put it, the story is straight out of Greek antiquity - and it merged with a midcentury comic book. The only trouble is the lines are delivered so lamely, which is hard to imagine, given the professional cast (Walter Hill never was good at commanding dialogue from his cast in any of his movies). Also - the retro look goes strangely 1980s when the cast ends up in what must've been an MTV version of Spanish Harlem. No matter. See this. It is a good testament to the power of storytelling."

+15302,1,"Gold Bond works better, and smells better.","Gold Bond works much better than this stuff. It cools better and seems to absorb better too. Anti Monkey Butt does nothing that Gold Bond or the generics don't, and I don't like the fragrance at all. It smells like a diaper mixed with perfume. The monkey butt gimmick is just that- a gimmick to get you to buy a mediocre product. I'll be going with another brand."
+15303,2,Totally unique!,"This book is a funny anti-war adventure story, but also so much more. It gives the reader an excellent sense of what it might have been like to live in the Austrian Empire in 1914-15. I know it sounds strange, but after reading this, Kafka begins to make sense. Read this book once for sheer entertainment, but then read it again and give it some thought. It's worth it!"
+15304,1,OUTDATED 2001 !,"This is a piece of VERY outdated junk...uses Adobe Acrobat 4.0, when the most recent ACROBAT version is 10 AND FREE !! AMAZON should be ashamed to sell this VERY OUTDATED VERSION. I will not buy ANYTHING from AMAZON again !!!"
+15305,1,Leslie Sansone Fan,I love Leslie but this DVD is not for me. It was one of my begining wokouts. It's an ok workout but she has better.
+15306,1,Don't buy,This thing came broken and the company that sold it would not help me. They wanted me to return it and reorder it. I think they should have stepped up a little more.
+15307,1,Not helpful...,"I purchased this book to help study for the math portion of the PPST. I studied using the drills and when I took the test I found that the math portion was mostly story problems, NOT drills. In fact there were no similar questions on the test compared to the book. I took the test in Jan 2002. Don't waste your money on this. There is an excellent book put out by ETS called Learning Plus Mathematics. This book is very realistic as far as what is included and is quite similar to the test."

+15309,1,usual insipid boring anthony storyline,"He's flogged Xanth to death now - surely Anthony must haveenough money by now... what started out as witty, refreshing and GOOD is now a pile of S#@T.He should take a long break and get some of the old magic back instead of churning these books out like there's no tomorrow!"
+15310,2,"agician: Master (Riftwar Saga, Book 2)","As I have previously stated about Raymond E Feist, I have read just about all his books and cannot say I have disliked any. He has such mastery over the world of fantasy that he makes you believe it really exist.I liked everything about this book(my second time reading it) as all the other books written by him.I wholeheartedl recommend this book and all others in the series."
+15311,2,the misfits,"The misfits is a book that everyone can relate to! This book is really about name calling. A gourp of teen ager trying to stand up and say ""hey this is wrong"" and end up run for studien cancle. And there saying ""sticks and stones may brack are bones but wrods will never hurt us"" ,but it is not as easy as they think. How many people do you know that are going to vote for people that get made fun of ,but on there way to saing this they run arcoss some ever day teen age prombers. And standing up for what they blive in. Well to find out what happens to the gourp of teens you have to read this book!"

+15313,2,Hands Down the Best Kids Artist that We've Found,"Not only does our 18 month old daughter love this CD (and artist), so does our 9 year old nephew and both my husband and I. This is some of most infectious music I've heard in years, and I can't recommend it enough."
+15314,1,Peice of junk!,The guy insulted me when I told him it didn't work. I live out of town and had to go back and forth to find out it didn't work. Never again!!!!!!!!!
+15315,2,Escape with Enrique,"This is a great CD if you are looking for pure pop. The only song I dislike is 'Don't Turn of the Lights'.....it is more or less wailing to music. 'Hero' is a good track, but annoying since we've only heard it a million times in weeks following 9/11."
+15316,1,I don't understand,"I just don't understand. These guys are capable of so much and they write their worst album since, well, ever. It's very cheesy at times. Cheesy is a very bad thing. And why can't we leep into the 2000's on production. How about some crisp drums and crunchy guitars. And how about less keyboards. Anyone who calls this the best Iron Maiden ever obviously never listened to Number Of The Beast or Powerslave. The only song that saves it is track no. 9. Sorry I can't remember the name of track 9, because I left the cd out in my car where it will sit until I sell it at the used cd store. Don't waste your money!"
+15317,1,"Needs more practical, immediately useable points","I was hoping for something with greater specifics on turning negative situations around. The title sounded more action oriented to me than the book actually was. This was a bit more philosophical and psychological. I am looking for practical solutions that I can apply now. The best I have found so far was ""The Secret Handshake"" I would like to find more books like that for real specifics of how you can prepare, plan and change an interaction. The only problem with ""The Secret Handshake"" was that it ended, just when you begin to feel empowered."
+15318,2,Great early Yngwie & the 1st song orientated album from him,"This album is very varied and is made up of some beautiful instrumentals as well as headbanging songs. The best songs on this album are Ill see the Light TOnight, Disciples of Hell, Soldier Without Faith and Marching Out.Yngwie is the greatest guitarist ever!!"
+15319,2,Finally! The Cartwrights Come Home...,"...well, to my home anyway! And it is about time.I love Bonanza and the quality of these DVDs make me more than glad that I bought them. To finally have these shows available at my command is a dream come true. The quality is fantastic; the episodes are so much better than any Bonanza shown on t.v., youtube, etc. The handsome Cartwrights in living color! Whether you prefer mysteriously handsome Adam, devilishly cute Little Joe, sweetly lovable Hoss, or strongly distinguished Ben you want to see them as clearly as possible! The only way to do that is on these dvds.Granted there are not a lot of your usual special features, but the photo galleries make up for that. And the features that are there are well worth watching.If you even want to call yourself a Bonanza fan, you have no excuse for not buying these DVDs. None! Now come on, order...you know you want to."
+15320,2,"A pageturner, as usual","Dominic Cavello is a ruthless Mafia boss who kills ""just for the fun of it"" and who will stop at nothing to escape punishment for his crimes. Andie DeGrasse is an actress and a single mother who ends up on the jury of Cavello's latest trial. Nick Pellisante is an F.B.I. agent who has devoted several years of his career to catching Cavello and working for his conviction. These three characters' lives intersect and the sparks begin to fly. This is a typical Patterson/Gross pageturner, and if the reader can suspend disbelief in some unbelievable situations, he or she is in for an entertaining read."
+15321,1,"""Fear Dot Com"" is an Error","What was this movie about? ""Fear Dot Com"" didn't make any sense to me except that it was lame. People log on to the site and then they die 48 hours later of their biggest fear. Originality (no). A detective (Stephen Dorff) and a health investigator (Natascha McElhone) are zombies walking into the same trap as all of the other victims. If stupidity were a crime, these two would be charged with ten counts. Like duh, I'm going to log on to the site and see if I go next! Yes! No! By the way, there's a strange subplot involving a serial killer which is kind of disturbing. If you want to see something scary, rent ""Bride of Chucky"" or ""Jason X."""
+15322,1,Crafty Hands,"Musicianship is top notch, production is kind of sterile, compositions are not overly memorable. Give it a try if you can find it cheap, but it's far from essential listening."
+15323,2,Surprisingly good,"I totally agree with the other reviewers: a great bucket for a great price. I also would have been put off by the vinyl handle, and would not have bought this but for the previous review. Fully agreed, the handle is sturdy and does not appear to want to fail. I also see that the bucket doesn't have the failing of other collapsible buckets, which want to fall to the side if the handle is not supported. I ran a ""tip test"" in the kitchen, and even with vigorous prodding, this bucket did NOT want to collapse, tip, or lean over and spill its water. Fully recommended and happily owned."
+15324,2,Bands Like These Guys Don't Come Along Too Often,"I actually bought this CD after onlt hearing ""That Song"" and wasn't sure if they'd be good. Boy, did that gamble pay off. This is one of the best CD's I have ever heard. Big Wreck jams like few bands. And Ian Thornley can wail. Excellent CD even for anyone who appreciates music."
+15325,1,A waste of Money,I bought this as a Christmas gift for my husband against my son's advice. He warned me that this game would be fun for about 10 minutes and never played again. Exactly what happened. The graphics are very elementary compared to video game quality. This one went into the yard sale.
+15326,1,This thing stopped working after a few uses,"It plugs straight into the wall, but the build quality is so poor that after using it once or twice, it doesn't actually get the electricity to the battery anymore. The only way it appears to work now is if it's connected to the car charger that's included. So I'm pretty unhappy with this purchase."
+15327,1,All about michael!!,He thinks he is some special person with the CIA always trying to recruit him. How do we know this is true?
+15328,1,only one good song,"I have only heard SMALL parts of each song and the songs are kind of obnoxious. I dont recomend this for kids.""Get A Clue"" is the only good song because it is related to disney so it has to be that way."
+15329,1,Broke today!!,I purchased this item in July and today the display screen is just blank!! Poor quality or some sort of manufacturing defect!
+15330,1,What is wrong with people,"So I tried getting ahold of the seller since the phone didn't work with my phone plan. Since the seller ignored me, I gave the rip off phone to somebody with a TMobile plan only to find out that the phone doesn't work at all. PLEASE do not get ripped off by this seller!!"
+15331,2,Take me to Paris,"What can I say about a book that let me journey to Paris along with the author? It is an evocative read and even musical in tone. I love the asides such as Barney in Paris (the comparison of Barney to Bill Clinton is Priceless) and the stories about his child are charming. The only thing this book lacks (and this could be my personal bias) is a description of married life for the couple in Paris. What IS married life in Paris like for two Americans?? Wish I knew a bit more on the topic. But other than that, this is a travelogue with heart."
+15332,1,Digital Oil and Candy Thermometer,"I love this item, but after using it for 3 weeks, it stopped working. The temperature keeps going down on it, instead of going up for candy making. I waited a long time to buy it, and now I'm not very happy with it. Like I said, it worked for a while, but it does not like being used over and over..."
+15333,2,Really cool tea set!!,"This tea set is incredible! Heavy and the cups are wonderful as well. Well made, dragonfly was beautiful on tea pot. Well worth it!"
+15334,2,Famous Vitnage Picture,"Even though this is a poster print, (meaning there's no value in it being a Vintage photo) most people won't realize this, and if you get it framed it'll look like you have something of real value from the past, as these pictures sold for a ton back in the day.Muhammad Ali was also known for being the best Boxer in history by many, so this is definitely a poster people who love to have and see."
+15335,2,Wonderful bluegrass music!,"Wow! Who would have thought that the blend would be so incredible. A fantastic version of The Stone's ""Wild Horses"" and the New Rider's ""Panama Red"" are just some of the more familiar songs this album deals with. Clemens fiddle work carries the album, but all contribute to develop a delightful bluegrass mix. If you like Jerry Garcia, The New Riders of the Purple Sage, or bluegrass, you have to give this album a listen."
+15336,1,Disgusting,"Drop it. The moment you pick up that catchy title - drop it. Don't want to know who's fault is it, author's or editor's, but it's a collection of typos upon typos upon typos, where code doesn't match text and neither match pics.Can go on and on and on ( as typos do). But rather not.This point of view is purely subjective."
+15337,1,Is this really for kids?,"Where the Wild Things Are is definitely not for kids: it'll scare them! When Max gets stuck under the snow pile and starts crying, kids will, too! Same thing when the monsters surround the kid. The book isn't nearly as scary. It's more lighthearted and has an exciting feeling when Max goes on the adventure. I couldn't even finish the movie. Maybe it gets better in the end, but I honestly feel the movie gives the book a bad reputation."
+15338,2,Great gift,"This book is a fabulous gift to give anyone you care about. I have one, and I use it all the time. I like being able to find the scriptures related to a particular subject all together."
+15339,2,walking and writing feat,"This book is about a walk from south Portugal to Italy. As the writer is on a very modest budget he usually sleeps rough, but gets lots of hospitality on the way. This leads to all kinds of stories, mainly from old people and people who live a lonely life in the mountains.He does not make his goal of Istanbul, but it is a very remarkable journy anyway, comparable to Patrick's Leigh Fermor's walk from Hook of Holland to Constantinople but without the luxury part in the latter book.The book is very well written and keeps you reading mile after mile (page after page). I have quite a collection of walking stories, this was one of the first and I still rate it as one of the best."
+15340,1,97 grand cherokee air-lifts-rear,"To make a long story short.these are a very generic item,that no longer contain ,the padded spacers,that fit between the airbag,and the upper bumper post.This spacer-pad,can be seen,in older pictures,of the product,for THIS !!application,but aren,t included any more,and the customer help line said,quote{ they will work,by expanding OUTWARD,against the spring,and the spacer,isn,t needed}I said ---You need a new --tin foil hat!! --and returned them.They charged a 25% restock fee --That is 4wheelonline DID-!!!BEWARE!!!"
+15341,2,millennial existensial masterpiece!,"OK, to everyone who says this album is just Beck trying to create a kind of ironic tribute to funk/ rave-up record, they're really missing the point. This is definitely not accessible like Odelay was, nor is it Beck's greatest album (I still think Mutations keeps that honor, even after Sea Change). However, there certainly is something genius about this album. For one thing, when I first heard it I thought the production was different than anything I had heard before. For lack of a better word, the album just sounds weird. Like something isn't quite right. Which it isn't. I took this to be a concept album, really about the whole LA scene, and the emptyness of it. Songs like ""Get Real Paid"" and ""Hollywood Freaks"" definitely convey this. If you're just getting into Beck definitely start off with Mellow Gold or Odelay, but for any fan of Beck's this album is essential."
+15342,1,Repetitive,"This album is a minor improvement on the first edition of teom, but the new songs arent that great either. Dont forget about us sounds exactly like we belong together, and her songs are too rnbish. I liked the old mariah who was contemporary, and didnt succumb to peer pressure of the music industry."
+15343,2,"simple and great headset, but this $90 price is ridiculous","If this is what it looks like -- the simple, silver plastic usb logitech headset that has no volume device on the cord -- then it is the best headset that I have ever used, and it is more comfortable and better than the ""premium"" ones that they released that have the large annoying dangling volume control.BUT, now it looks like nobody carries them anymore so there is one Amazon partner that has them listed at $90 each? PLUS $20 shipping? that is way more than the original fee and they are not THAT good that they should be marked up so incredibly high.Looks like someone has a strategy to squeeze money out of a few un-informed shoppers... These should cost maybe $40. or less."
+15344,1,Like DNA - information interspersed with meaningless junk,"Writing as a layperson (and therefore with the risk of missing the subtleties of the book) it seems to me that the book not so much about the algorithm per se as about mathematical logic, which made the algorithm a such general and powerful tool in the present day.The book contains a brief, but useful overview of the development of mathematical logic. Unfortunately it also contains a lot of irrelevant junk which add nothing to your understanding of the subject matter, such as recreations (or more likely) inventions of banal events in the lives of key figures and episodes from the author's romantic life and an ambiguous and mildly disturbing description of an encounter with two Swedish teenagers in a park."
+15345,1,staticky,There's always a ton of static on the screen when I used this cable. I had to replace it within a week. Total garbage.
+15346,2,Great little book and good value,"This is just a must have if you do stained glass or glass painting,its just one of those little books you use it and you cant go wrong..the hard stuff is thought out for you already.Im glad I have it.B.W."
+15347,2,Works as advertised,The Sony DVD+RW work well. They are an affordable way to save data. I would recommend this product for use at an office or at home.
+15348,1,DRM free please,"Well I for one refuse to purchase this game due to the DRM. A friend of mine bought it and not only is it boring and far too dumbed down than I originally expected, you are basically paying $50 to rent the game from EA.DRM is a terrible method to prevent piracy - it punishes legitimate customers and those who pirate the game have plenty of ways around this. A week before the game was out there were thousands of seeders and over 100,000 leechers on various torrent tracking websites. Shame on you, EA. Thanks for completely turning me off of this game due to your idiotic and unnecessarily rigorous policy. Let me install the game once and connect to game servers if I want to go online.I hope this game bombs, shame on EA. And Will Wright, shame on you. Your name is too big for you to be against this and allowing it to pass."
+15349,2,Pleased moviefreak,Was affordable enough to add to my Stephen King collection. I received it in a few days...just in time for a weekend of viewing pleasure.
+15350,1,just plain bad,"There really is no point to this movie. I mean there is absolutly nothing original to this movie, no surprise there, and i guess a movie doesn't have to be super original to be a good popcorn flick, most movies are rehashes off other movies now adays. But atleast it should have some inovation added to it. This movie is like artificial powdered milk, a rehash of a rehash...oh I guess I could go on for days, but I'll just finish with why watch this when there are a million rehashed horror movies done a million times better."
+15351,2,So far so good.,"First impression is great. The water tank is much larger than my old iron. Not filling it every 15 minutes saves time. This iron is heavier than I expected, maybe that's all the water weight. I did alot of research before buying this iron and I'm not disappointed. Would buy it again."
+15352,1,yawn and yawn again,"God, I've been waiting for this book.I've enjoyed the Belgariad and Malloreon very much and read the books several times.I liked the quick wit, the humorous exchanges between the characters, and the plot. But ""Polgara"" left me disappointed, rewriting that already twice told long story of what Pol and Belgareth did during 3000 years when noting much of a plot happend, before the actual series (Bel/Mal) started. Just adding the angle of Polgara's perception is definately not enough to salt this journal-of-a-time-of-waiting. It has little entertaining value, and a somewhat shrill lack of those peculiar grins that swept my face reading the Bel/Mal.There is so much more that can be done with the good set of characters the Eddingses created in the Bel/Mal. I do hope they start a NEW plot/series with them."
+15353,2,Great product,This was bought as a gift and did I not see final product. Did receive a very nice thank you stating it was very nice.
+15354,2,Gotta Love The Canton Spirituals,"It's just a cd, but the group is the part that makes it the best. This is my favorite gospel singers."
+15355,2,Nora Roberts does it again!,"I can't think of a Nora Roberts book I haven't enjoyed. I am always amazed that she can capture my interest every time. This book not only gives the thrill of romance, it gives you an insight to the world of art, art history and art science. I loved it. Thanks Nora!"
+15356,1,Creed Live,"Creed blows live ! I have always loved their studio albums, they sound great. But Scott Stapp sounds like s*&% live. A waste of money !!!!!"
+15357,1,One of the worst movies ever,If I could give this movie a negative star I would. The dialogue was absolutely cheesy; it was a murder investigation movie I don't know why they tried to make a connection with women in the military. There's nothing wrong with a movie having a message regarding women in the military but it was poorly executed and obviously forced.
+15358,1,"Great idea, but disappointing...","I switched from Littermaid LM 900 to give this one a try. My cat was very reluctant to use it, then when she did use it, she proceeded to let litter fly wherever. It was her personal disdain for this litterbox - oh well, you never have to wonder what cats are thinking - EVER. That's why I love cats so much! LOL. It eventually had some of the other problems mentioned with the motor straining and where the litter would pile up as it rotated. It eventually gave out after 4 months, and wore me out keeping litter swept up. The next automatic litterbox I tried was worse than this, so I am now going back to a Littermaid LM 900 until someone can invent something that will work better than this without costing a small mint. I never had trouble with my 3 year old Littermaid and was wondering why I got rid of it for this, and then the worst disaster after that. Just beware."
+15359,2,One of the BEST CDs EVER,"This CD is one of my favorites. Alexz Johnson who plays Jude Harrison on Instant Star, has a great voice. The songs are fantastic. If you love the show this CD is a must have. It has all the songs from Season 1 plus ""Stupid Girl"" (from Season 2) and ""Criminal"" (bonus song). The best songs on the CD in my opinion are ""Temporary Insanity,"" ""That Girl,"" ""I Could Be You,"" and ""Time To Be Your 21,"" But really all the songs are great. Also, if you love this CD make sure you get 'Songs from Instant Star Two.'"
+15360,2,Back saver!,We purchased this mainly because my husband's back was bothering him. The next day he said his back was feeling better and got a better night's sleep. It's been about a month now and no more complaints. I have chronic back pain and it has helped me some also. It just feels good to lay down on. Would definitely recommend not only for back issues but just for a little more coziness. Love it!
+15361,1,Not A Winner For Female Investors,"There are times in the book that I found the author's tone very condesending and male-oriented. He really does talk down to readers. Also, the million dollars he says that a person can save is a nice idea, but very hard to accomplish in the real world. What David does not say is that a million dollars today will be worth a fraction of that by the time most of us retire decades from now. This book is all about sales and marketing, instead of solid financial advice."
+15362,2,Topical relief,I walk and square dance and sometimes wind up with achy muscles and joints.Applying this and taking some OTC pain reliever allows me to sleep all night and wake up feeling good in the morning!
+15363,2,Too easy for my 9 year old,"Good clean game, but waay too easy for my nine-year old.She finished it in one day."
+15364,2,Back Saver!,"This Creeper seat is nothing short of fantastic! The height control mechanism works flawlessly and there is no hunting around for a single lever, the ring does the thing! The on-board tool\cleaning stuff carrying feature is a step saver also, it's always right where you need it. It's extremely well built and handles my 260+ pounds with no effort at all. The wheels are just large enough to pass over the seams in the garage floor without stopping your movement or tipping over. I have a show car that has to be cleaned frequently and this makes doing the lower parts and wheels a piece of cake. No more back aches!! The price is fantastic and the quality is superb! I highly recommend this product!"
+15365,2,Definitly the best murder mystery every written.,"What can I say? There is no other book that I've read (and let me tell you, I've read quite a few) that completely baffled me the way this one did. Not only is the real culprit a mastermind, but Christie is as well."
+15366,1,Very average product,"MBR-100 does not do justice to its functionality at all. Bluetooth connectivity is bad and slight obstructions cause it to ""break"" the music streaming. I use my Nokia N82 to stream the music to this device. As long as I am in the same room with my phone and device, the connections works properly. But using it with my phone in the kitchen/hallway nd this device in the room causes a lot of skips and misses. And I thought I could listen to the songs wirelessly without the need to go to the room again and again to change tracks. Very dissappointed."
+15367,2,UK Dirty Dozen,"One big star, a few lesser knowns and a bunch of who are they. Compared to the Dirty Dozen, it doesn't have the star power. However, it is a pretty good yarn seen from the Brit side of WWII."
+15368,2,"Finally TRUTH, not MYTH","I was born in 1958. My entire adult life has been filled with rumors/myths/ presumptions/assumptions about President Kennedy. I never felt I could trust the veracity of any work....till now. Robert Delleck's well written, comprehensive biography has fulfilled my yearning to know the real JFK. Even with the arduous sections detailing the Vietnam situation, I highly recommend this biography."
+15369,2,Nice product.,"I was debating purchasing a more expensive item, but it seems I am more captivated by the more reasonably priced jewelry.This product is very nice, and the delivery and service was excellent. Do recommend for animal lovers."

+15371,2,Paradigm Shifting,"New Testament scholars are all too ready to admit that John's Gospel shows a preexistent Christology (some even admit it of Paul's letters) but not too many are willing to admit the same of the Synoptic Gospels. If someone does see preexistence in the Synoptics then they're generally accused of reading later Christian theology into the texts or of reading them through Johannine lenses. Drawing from ancient Jewish literature as well as the New Testament, Simon Gathercole mounts a persuasive exegetical argument for preexistence in the Synoptic Gospels based on Jesus' ""I have come"" statements. This important volume has significant implications for modern discussions on ancient Christology."
+15372,1,buyer be aware,"I own this double feature disk. It will not play in four different dvd players that I tried. I did get it to play in an old Toshiba laptop. The sound and picture were great quality on the laptop, but other players I tried did not recognize the disk. Could just be a bad disk.. I paid a buck for it at a grocery store a couple of years ago. Disk is supposed to play in Canada and US regions. I'm not too dissapointed being out a dollar, but at the 45 dollar price tag here, I'd be wary."

+15374,1,Hard to keep moist,"The wipers work great. No complaint. However, you only need one or two at a time and the other 98 or 99 will dry out and become useless unless you take some care. I used these at work and unfortunately did not have a zip lock bag handy. By the time I got home that evening the others were just tissues. Before you open the package, have your zip lock bag ready and maybe even put a damp paper towel in the bag with this package to keep the sheet moist."

+15376,2,Great imaginative children's book,My two and four year old both love this book. One of my favorites. They can really relate to the story and imagine the animals we have seen at the zoo coming to OUR house. The pictures are beautiful.

+15378,1,doesnt even come close to the other medal of honor games,"this is an horrible example of a video game. it absolutely does no justice to the medal of honor series. the games suffers from llllooonnnggg loading times, ridiculous mouse lag, and it takes just about a whole clip to kill the enemy. its obvious ea games only released this game to make money off of the medal of honor name. by the way does anybody else get the ""cd skipping"" glitch too. just about every 10 minutes of playtime the game locks up and the sound just keeps skipping. i always have to completely restart my game. dont waste your money there are better games out there"

+15380,1,Doom,"First of all I won't tell you about the game, because we all know it's the best, I'll tell you about what comes in the package. Nothing, save the cd. No printed manual, no artwork, no key guide, I THOUGHT THIS WAS A COLLECTOR'S EDITION!... And if you plan on playing this with a mouse you'd better think again because doom95 (the windows 95 launcher) doesn't support usb mouses and practically all new computers come with usb mouses. However the great free program jdoom (jdoom.newdoom.com)adds mouse support, improved graphics, quake style console, and even updated polygonal graphics! The horrible part about this is that the average customer won't even think to download jdoom... The games themselves are great but the company didn't put any effort into this. This is in no way a ""collector's edition"" it's just repackaged old software."
+15381,1,Too awkward,"I purchased these, thinking they looked comfortable to use. They're not. They are a pair of normal, plain baby nail cutting clippers with a plastic bulbous structure attached to it. They are awkward to use, as there is no grip. I think if the handle was made of a rubber like material or had finger contours, then perhaps this would be a much better product. For the price, I can't complain, but I personally didn't find them any easier to use than your ordinary run-of-the-mill clippers. They do cut the nails well though."
+15382,2,TomTom One XL - not quite 5 stars,"Just bought it and used it in areas unknown to me - both on the interstate and in the boonies.The spoken directions were not clear EXACTLY where to exit - sometimes saying ""Exit ahead ""- but not ""Exit Here"". Sometimes it becamme clear that ""ahead"" meant the next exit and sometimes it didn't. That was really frustrating.In the boonies - it actually was better and clearer what the prompt meant.Not sure if the extra 1/2 inch of screen was worth the extra $100."

+15385,1,Feel Bad for Dissing a Classic,"As an adult, I liked the story - but don't think it's appropriate for a child. I think most children would conclude that wolves are evil and scary (the illustrations of the wolf are certainly scary). Since I live a stone's throw from wolf country, this book is probably not the best bedtime reading for my child. Sent it back."

+15387,2,"It's Good; Not Sure if ""Superfast"" is the Word, Though...","I just received this cookbook and was super excited to see some pretty awesome recipes in it. My only question is about the choice of the term ""Superfast."" To me, a wife that works full time, weekday dinners need to be fast. And, there is a plethora of information out there on fast meals, but most aren't too healthy. I need a combination of both. And, I thought this would be it.But, I think the term fast means something different to me. These are quick, easy recipes for 7PM on a Monday when I get home. These require a lot of additional prep that I wasn't looking for.It will be great for weekends when I have more time, but for weekdays, I continue my search. Looking for the holy grail that is the truly healthy, yet quick, weekday cookbook. The search continues! =)"
+15388,2,Pure Western Delight,"Wagon Train, The Complete Color Season was an absolute delight! Super value for super, wonderful, pleasant entertainment. It is the best DVD purchase value I have found in a long time.If you love westerns or just like to remember when, I highly recommend purchasing Wagon Train, the series episodes, both black and white and color! If you are a Robert Fuller fan,this is a must to have!"

+15390,1,poor engineering,"When my CMM1200 arrived from Amazon, the height adjustment was inoperable.I looked in the bottom of the box and found one of those cheap ""locking washers"". There's a bar that goes from the front wheel to the rear wheel that connects to the height adjuster. The bar had come loose from the shaft it attaches to. To re-attach the bar, one has to kneal on the front of the mower while lifting up on the rear of the mower until the hole in the bar lines up with the shaft. For the time being I re-installed the ""locking washer"", but my guess is that it will continue to fall off in use. Why Black and Decker didn't put a hole in the shaft with a pin is beyond me. If they can't get the little stuff right it concerns me as to the reliability of the rest of the mower."
+15391,2,Excellent Product,"Our filtered fridge water dispenser (in the door) broke several times and we didn't want to fix it anymore. We started using this and never looked back. Works great, the water tastes great after the filter taste wears off, doesn't leak, easy to fill and fit great on the fridge shelf. Even the little ones get their own water now. Highly recommended!"
+15392,1,"Shallow, not actionable","If you manage in a high-intensity service industry and are looking for tips on how to evoke higher performance from your knowledge workers, keep searching for another book. Take 5 minutes and read the summary at the end of the chapters; you'll quickly see that there is little practical information or depth here."
+15393,1,not even worth 1 star!,"this is horrrrrible! my daughter LOVES anything to do with Peter Pan and Captain Hook (she's 2) but this couldn't even keep her attention for a moment, much less mine. I always liked the movie (the original that is) but this is soo incredibly slow that it won't keep any child entertained for any period of time. it's just very dull and (unless you've just never seen the original) the artwork is a bit poor. Sorry, if you do like it."

+15395,1,A very fictional book!,"This is a very fictional book! Granted all novels are based on make believe but this book was much more fictional than most works of fiction. The characters were all made up and the author made them go through a bunch of events that haven't really happened (I don't read the papers that much). Sometimes I wondered if the events in this book were real, but I realized that they were just too unreal to be real. In fact they were fictional and I didn't really believe them! I'm not sure that the Secretary of State ever goes dancing. I mean, who would want to be boogeying in between Madeline Albright and Warren Christopher. It'd be a pretty lame party!"
+15396,2,Carefree yogurt maker,"The Salton YM9 yogurt maker is compact, easy to use and clean. I find it works best and fastest if commercial yogurt with active cultures (such as Dannon plain) is used as the starter and regular milk, rather than dry, is used for the base. The final product is sweet and creamy, despite warnings that homemade yogurt cannot rival the texture and consistency of commercial yogurt. Not so in my case. This was a great buy that I'm very pleased with. Note that you'll need a candy thermometer or food thermometer that reads temperatures as low as 100 degrees and as high as 160 degrees."
+15397,2,"This film is ""must see""","I am now a hard-core Lasse Hallstrom fan. ""Chocolat"" and ""Cider House Rules"" were both top-notch films and anyone who appreciated these two films will love ""Shipping News."" Like ""Cider"" the new film is riveting -- it meanders in completely unpredictable directons, arriving at quite believable and endlessly fascinating destinations. While watching, I was continually struck by the thought ""Man, this is a VERY GOOD film.""No one can quibble with the wonderful choice of settings, sometimes lush, sometimes stark, always captivating and believable. The acting is across-the-board excellent. Cate Blanchett will astonish you! Julianne Moore is completely breath-taking and never misses a beat. Kevin Spacey is remarkable, as usual. There are also innumerable supporting cast members, all of whom are quite effective.This film cannot be overlooked for Best Picture nomination! I do not argue with those who rate the film five stars. I am very stingy with handing out five stars...."
+15398,2,Dark forces meet Film Noir,"I am a fan of this sort of thing but found myself being bored of the Soap Opera which Buffy became and was really happy with the dark, film noir aspects of this series.Angel is a dark, batman like figure who would prefer to do his part and return to the shadows of his home to brood and revell in his lost love and cursed life (Not a bad concept, but old fast), so you introduce the quirky ex Buffy character Cordellia (played by the extremely hot Charisma Carpenter) and the likeable Irish sidekick Doyle and you have comic relief and a way to get into the plot through the fact that Doyle recieves visions of people in need of help.I really enjoyed this series which was moving in parts and even had some chilling moments (rare these days).I feel the show went down hill after this series, but this series holds true to a great concept (that darkness is just under everyday life).It's up there with the greats such as, Night Stalker and the early Xfiles series.Check this out."
+15399,2,Just the right size,"I have a Wearever set that has held up for several years. The trouble with it is that the 2qt saucepan is sometimes not big enough. So, I finally got around to buying one and I wish I had done so much sooner. The design is just slightly different from my set, but not enough to bother me. So far it performs with the same quality as my older 2qt. pan, and I expect that it will continue to do so."
+15400,2,Perfect for gear,"I do a good amount of camping and was looking for something waterproof, animal proof, and that I can jam pack into the closet so it doesn't take up a lot of space. This was perfect!It clamps down well, is a good size for my needs and appears like it will last a long time. I only have a few comments:- Why not square the bottom up with the top? It would make stuffing stuff in here - easier.- No foam or rubber gasket around the lip of the box. This would make it pretty darn airtight although easy to add on )- The holes for the locks were not cleanly cut out on my unit. Easy enough to fix - but I would have imagined this would have been addresses prior to shipping.Otherwise, its a small, durable storage box. What else do you want to hear?"
+15401,1,Preperation for Beginners,I failed the test after reading this book for 1 1/2 months. I believe the book is good for beginner programmers who are learning VB but not so good for passing the MCSD exam.

+15404,2,Wisdom Of The Mystic Masters,"I read this book twentyfive years ago, and I began to seriously change my life. Unfortunately I loaned the book to a friend and could never get it back. I soon thereafter made contact with the Rosicrucians. The last twentyfive years has been a journey, and although I had only studied earnestly with the Rosicrucians for six months or so, everything that they taught me has been validated through observation and experience. I mourned the loss of this book for twentyfive years, and just happened across it here in Amazon. I am now reading it again, and I am amazed at how much I have progressed....and how much more there is to do. My youngest daughter and my first two of more to come grandchildren are blessings that I would never have been granted had I not read this book and found my way to the Rosicrucians. I am so happy to have found this book again."
+15405,1,Not my idea of fostering language developement,"Although these blocks are durable and have the traditional die-cut letters, I am very disappointed in the oversight of what I perceive to be an elementary necessity. The problem with this blocks is that although they have letters and pictures on each block, is that the pictures do not correspond to the letter on the block. I think that it is important for use for years to come to not only have a basic fun and building value, but to be able to foster language development when the time comes. I have a problem with the letter ""P"" block having a picture of a bee on it, how am I supposed to explain that when the question arises? If you are only going to be using these blocks for a young child and not keep them to teach them as they age, then they serve that purpose, but if you are like me and want them for longevity, then pass on this set."
+15406,2,Great item,"This set has some of the best figures to use for the point value, I would reccomend this for anyone starting out or looking for some filler pieces for their team."
+15407,1,Ouch! I Can't Imagine Eisler Had Any Creative Input!,"The fact that this was straight to video should have been enough of a sign. I like others thought I would givethis a watch due to having read the series. I sure hope that Eisler didn't write the screenplay and if he did that he was paid enough so that he can create a fund to reimburse those of us that purchased or rented this movie.Some salient factors:1.) I generally don't mind subtitles. However, this was not billed as a foreign film? The majority of the dialogue is in Japanese with English subtitles, except for when Gary Oldman rants in American accent or the John Rain character speaks acceted English (was he not born and raised in the US?)2.) For all the points made by other review, the movie storyline did no service to written series. The Bourne series is proof that both the books and movies can be entertainingFar be it from me to cast asperions on how anyone makes a living, however, Gary Oldman must have needed a check!"
+15408,1,Not packaged to be shipped.,"The other reviews are absolutely right. The wheels weight about 5 lbs each and are wrapped in the flimsiest bubble wrap ever (the bubbles pop as you hold the casters in your hands). They are shipped *loose* inside a flimsy cardboard box along with the platform. As you can imagine, this means a very non-square package inside a square box - no packing foam.It's not a question of whether this cart will arrive damaged, it's just a matter of how bad. Mine had about 10 dimples, a bent cross brace on the handle, and a substantial dent in the corner.Other carts I've purchased have shipped assembled with no outer packaging. That would have been a safer approach for this cart.Additionally, the glue covers more area than the mat, and never dries, so it gets on everything. Maybe some Goo Gone or something will take it off.This item should be pulled from Amazon until the manufacturer can re-package it for safe shipment."
+15409,1,It's the humidity!!!,"In THE RIVER KING, strange meteorological events are always happening in the town of Haddam where the story takes place. It's hot or cold at the wrong time, or strange things fall from the sky. The climate seems to affect the populace to an unusual degree, as Hoffman gives us repeated descriptions of ailments and strange nervous conditions. The plot involves a long-dead headmaster's wife with a love of roses, and strange scents always seem to be popping up. Everyone is nervous, or sad, or loopy with love. Unfortunately, Hoffman commits the great error of all freshman comp students, she tells us rather than shows us. Almost nothing happens in the last 3/4 of the book, but Hoffman attaches great importance to it all without explaining what anything means. I found her rather cool, detached, omniscient narrator to be a distraction, as she gives equal weight to everything in the story. All in all, a disappointment."
+15410,1,Never recieve the item!!!,"I still haven't recieve my order! If an Amazon employee happens to read this I'd really appreciate some help with the problem, because so far I've only got the run-around!"
+15411,1,Awful,"Never mind the insane theology; as a novel this is absolutely dreadful. The characters are as three-dimensional as a carbon nanotube, the plot is outlandish and bears no relation to reality - Israel salvages six years' worth of fuel from crashed Russian aircraft which have already been described as crashing in flames? Oh really? - and the quality of research is embarrassing. I lost any remaining respect for the authors (which by that point was already low) when the intrepid journalist's Scotland Yard contact started talking about his boss the captain. No British police force has, or ever had, the rank of Captain, and it would have taken all of five minutes to find that out. Well, if the authors couldn't even be bothered to do that level of basic research, I'm not going to bother reading any more of their books."
+15412,1,"Horrible, DO NOT BUY this product unless you like pain!","This product is horrible - I tried it, bought it from HBA Products, and am waiting for them to respond to my request for a refund, reason being it burned the top part of my lip, and did not remove the hair! It feels like fiberglass running across your skin, and I didn't even have hardly any hair to remove! Now I'm left with swollen, irritated skin, which will take forever to calm down, that's tender to the touch! And I've waisted hard earned money.Ladies, listen to me, I implore you: DO NOT RISK TRYING THIS PRODUCT!!!!! It may work for a few people, but there are others out there who got burned like I did. It's not worth it, I may have to even go to the doctor now because of this ridiculous cheap imitation."
+15413,1,BORING!,I Hate this book! I have no idea what the heck the guy is talking about! I am supposed to act like I am writting a letter or something to the Machiavelli guy but I have no idea what I should say. If anybody can help me it is due on Tuesday the 26th. Thanx!
+15414,1,Investors were bilked out of their money to fund this film,"Don't waste your time, money or energy on this one. It is a strange little film about a strange little man. Buck is so weird that you think he is retarted, only to find out in the end that he's not, he's just really weird. The investors should have saved their money."
+15415,2,great printer,I really needed a printer with a scanner so I could store my important files digitally. This printer works great.. I would recommend to change to the lower resolution so it will operate faster. It can scan color also but that takes a loooong time. b&w has been sufficient for me; scans quickly for those. printout quality is excellent.
+15416,2,Memories are Great!,They say this book is out of print. How sad. I just bought this book and found that it was wonderful reading. All of our every day lives and our experiences are in this book. A great mystery to be solved with the help of an older person. It shows great strengths of all the people in this story who have over come or worked out their own personal problems to bring joy to others.This book should be bought back for those who love to read books. Memories are made to share and bring joy to others. Margot Dalton is an excellent writer.
+15417,1,INCREDIBLY DULL AND UNORIGINAL.,"I wanted to like this movie, but it is truly awful. Worse, it is dull as dirt, with terrible acting. Even Dracula fans will not be able to sit through it. Don't bother unless you need a sleep aid.One hilarious thing...this film is set in the year 3000 and the lounge in the space ship contains a 4X3 TV and VHS machine!?This is not a sequel to DRACULA 2000, DRACULA II or the upcoming DRACULA III."

I have never given a one star review, and I am giving this a two star review just because I like the way the soldering iron looks.....I purchased this Soldering Iron after taking into consideration all the reviews. Maybe I just got a lemon, but after proper filling it with butane; this piece did not ignite. I tried every angle, flow position, and even took the tip off. After at least a hundred clicks, this soldering iron still has not ignited. I tried to search the internet for a solution, but I have found nothing of value. I also went to the US Rep's website, and still no usefull information on this model. I really needed this for a laptop project I wanted to do today. I wasted a few bucks on butane, and I will still have to go get an el chepo soldering iron to do the job..."
+15419,2,Pharrell and Chad are my heroes,"Before this album was released, ""Lap Dance"" was already out on the airwaves and i found it to be a great song with a awesome beat. But knowing the Neptunes you would expect to hear funky, spacey, mind blowing hip hop beats when they come out with their own album. That is not what you get here and I admit I was very disappointed when it first came out. One year later, I decide to borrow this from a friend and check it out again and I found that I was an idiot for not getting the album before. This album is highly original, funky yet soulful. I guess my taste in music grew so if you appreciate original, not watered down music (such as hip hop nowadays), please buy this album. This album proves to me that the Neptunes are in fact gods.standouts: Run to the Sun, Things are Getting Better"

When you succesfully complete each case, you will have a trophy. Thre are many cases( reindeer's annual exam, flamingo limping and a giraffee with loose stool. I learned a lot from this game. Perfect game for Vet Becomers."
+15421,2,hit and miss,Several laugh out loud moments. Weingarten's newspaper column is funnier than this book. I love the column. The book isn't bad.If you truly want to sample Weingarten at his best read his column.
+15422,2,"Vishnu, Where are you?","I was fascinated by this book. Vishnu was a character of many colors, as were all of the characters in the book. There was no one in the story who did not exhibit many sides of human nature. In so many instances, each character shows his goodness as well as his darker side. Human nature is what this book is about.I was also intrigued by the death of Vishnu- as he lay comatose his life unfolded for us, and I think for him as well. If anyone reading this has ever sat with a dieing loved one- it is comforting to see that perhaps thier last days and hours are filled with memories of years gone by, and in the end- when we think that Vishnu's life is over we find that in fact a new journey begins. I found this story somehow comforting. Not all of the characters althogher likeable - but interesting none the less. A great read!"

+15425,1,"Easy to use, but...","Scale displays only partial after using one day.So I can't see if it's 3 or 5 or 8....Easy to use, so they should improve front panel quality."
+15426,2,Excellent!,My 10 year old daughter is the one who wanted this...and she LOVES it. Funny how that works? Highly recommend this DVD.
+15427,2,"Awesome, thrilling movie","Praises to Tim Robbins and Jeff Bridges for a spectacular performance in the movie. Once again, Robbins steals the stage with his excellent acting abilities. It is nice and refreshing to see Hollywood directing a movie which is so realistic and ""close to home""-- something which all of us are capable of experiencing-- the uncomfortable feeling of not knowing who one's neighbor is. This movie shows that an individual cannot trust anybody. From here, a moral can be reaped-- as was stated in Robert Frost's poem, ""The Wall,"" one should build a wall and not cross it."
+15428,1,Feedback,The VHS I purchased doesn't work. When I put it in it's black and white and is scrambled. Products should be tested before they are sold.
+15429,1,Awful. Not much else to say,"I give paper fortune a 3-4 out of five stars. The Kindle edition is horrible, a complete waste of time. You get a few of the main articles, but most of the rest of what shows up turns out to be tiny little bits of junk: Text boxes and pullout-garbage (I used to work in the magazine world) that is essentially page filler in the printed editions. I thought this was so cheap it would have to be worthwhile, but unless they include more meat, this is a total waste of money. Better to get the WSJ or Financial Times."
+15430,2,Great Movie!,"I bought this movie to add to my already extensive Christmas movie collection. We start watching them the day after Thanksgiving right up until Christmas. Once again, another good movie with a fair price!"
+15431,2,Confused for your Enjoyment,"Guillermo Arriaga's rotating perspective narrative works best in this tidy drama concerning family, relationships, regrets and two generations of risky sex. The acting, writing and directing are a sensual feast that looks good, sounds good and feels very good after some intrigue. With a lot to see and hear in less that two hours; the out of sequence details weave their way into crystal clarity.Han Zimmer and Omar Rodriguez-Lopez score hypnotic scenes from the desert to the ocean. The writer has earth, wind, fire and water in mind for the characters, actions and settings; but you can take it as heady soaper.Like Cubism or string theory; this movie challenges and rewards. Most critics didn't like it in comparison to Arriaga's Babel. Enjoy it and the edge on them. Maybe it has too many notes.Beautifully filmed; Great BD A/V"
+15432,2,"Cabo, Great for what it is. But what you are not told",The Cabo has a design flaw in its back cover. This is why the stereo often malfunctions and no sound is heard out of one speaker. To fix this problem is not that hard if you know how to solder or know someone who does. Here is all you have to do. Remove the back cover which my void your warranty but they'll probably just give you another one with this problem. It will break sooner or later hence design flaw. Under the belt clip pin holder(not the screw holder) you will find a chip Apprx 2mm x4mm. This chip gets broken free. You must solder it back on using a pen type soldering iron NOT A GUN. Use liquid type solder a drop approx 1/4 mm. After soldering (carful not to overheat 1-2 second max.)you must modify the cover. A sliver of plastic approx 3mm thick must be cut from the pin molding at the top (volume control end)it should look like a D sideways when your done. reassemble the cover and your done.
+15433,1,Wake me up!,"I checked out the CD's of this book from my public library to listen to in my car. I kept thinking, ""When does the story start? When does the action being?"" The story is so bogged down with dry, tedious details that the story never quite got off the ground. After listening to 1/10 of the book, I decided to read the Amazon reader reviews. I'm glad we have a place to tell it like it is. I'm not listening to any more of it. Regarding all the details, as another reviewer stated, ""Who cares?"" It's going back to the library and I hope to find a book that will hold my attention."
+15434,2,great pen,"Great looking, great build quality.It writes fine, even after many years of owning it and not using it.Probably the nicest pen at this price."
+15435,1,Completely out of date,"This book offers very little if anything at this point and sounds comical at times referring to, ""The Information Super Highway"" a/k/a Internet and referencing positions that no longer exist."
+15436,1,"Good design, flimsy glass handle","This product worked well, until about the third time I used it, when the poorly attached glass handle broke off as a result of a very minor knock. Way too fragile for kitchen use."
+15437,1,"NOT AS ADVERTISED!!!!! 1, NOT 3!!!!!","The ad clearly states that this price is for 3 of this lipstick, not only the 1 I received. The only reason I ordered is that the price listed was good value. When the listed price plus shipping is higher than I ever paid in the store, it becomes a ripoff. I will not order from this seller again.[...]Scroll down to ""Product Description"" where it clearly states ""3 pack."""
+15438,1,Shameless!,Looking reasonably usable on the picture but completely unusable for anything thicker than a sheet of paper. No surprise that the only thing they guarantee is... that it will keep a small piece of paper dry ONCE!Your camera will be flooded almost immediately.
+15439,1,BUYER BEWARE!!!,"After reading all the great reviews, I bought this iron for my wife. It lasted just long enough to get out of the warranty. Everything works but it won't heat up, turns on etc. Now that I've gone back and looked at some reviews of those who actually owned it for more than a week, I see several with the same result as I. She loved the way it worked, and probably used it two to three times a week, just too bad it won't last. I ask anyone who reads this.....PLEASE don't review a product the same day you open the box and use something the first time!"
+15440,1,GE PAR 20 Bulbs glass falling out!,I bought about 20 of these lights and now the glass keeps falling out of the bulbs and smashing on the floor. I would find a different manufacturer to buy from.
+15441,2,One of my favorites!,"This is the funniest book I have ever read. I have read it an embarrassingly amount of times, but each time it still makes me laugh out loud. I highly recommend it!"
+15442,1,Poor quality control--bad product,"I received my first unit and noticed the low volume noise problem. I returned it to the repair site at my expense and received a replacement--red sauce on the speakers and the CD would not even power up. Obviously, no one had even looked at it. I received a second replacement unit--CD would not even spin and I received ""error message"". Called again and they are shipping my third unit. This is very frustrating as the repair service has very poor quality control and the unit has significant problems as I am not the only one with these problems."
+15443,1,Another generic video,"This video is a good video, except it is bland and generic. I was expecting more along the lines of something original, but I have to say it is everything but. I recently picked up the new Alan Kropf bass technique video, and it blew me away. I expected another hit from Victor Wooten, considering his status, and I was let down. If you never have seen a Victor Wooten video it is ok. I recommend Alan's new video more though."
+15444,1,Wireless Jack,Worked fine for a couple of months and then quit all together. Previously used an RCA model which also only lasted a short while. I had them hooked to a satellite receiver.
+15445,2,Judas Kiss,"What a consept, go back in time and meet yourself as a young man...try to relive your experiences and at the same time make them better...This is a well thought out movie, and again great acting. I think this is a great video."
+15446,2,A boy called slow: the true story of sitting bull,"I thought this book was wonderful. It has great illustrations, and explains the story of sitting bull very well. I think it is a great resource for teaching about indian culture."
+15447,1,Outside glitz 10 times better than story,"Johanna Lindsey, ""Until Forever"", Avon, 1995. A disjointed tale of Thorn (you know Thor's little brother) and Roseleen (wronged history prof and weapons nut). The set back cover and marketing verbage was almost worth the price. Almost, think Fabio (with dark hair) mostly naked, with sexy clad super vixen tastefully positioned to eclipse his, well you know. Unfortunatley the outside glitz was 10 times better than the inside story. Johanana spends ""Forever"" screwing up history and making meek attempts to fix it. Along the way Thorn's caveman interaction with Roseleen was trying and the ending a little too neat and contrived. I was disappointed, once again Madison Ave. promises but does not deliver."
+15448,2,Another great Irish boyband!,"Westlife is the group everybody is talking about! They have an amazing string of hits and they're worshipped by fans everywhere! This single has all their hits, including a duet with Mariah Carey: a FANTASTIC cover of Shrill Collins' ""Against All Odds!"" It's so amazing. This CD gets my highest possible reccomendation."
+15449,2,WOW !,"I know very little about taking pitures, granted I understand ""how"" to, but doing it is a total different thing. This Camera is VERY good. Manual or Auto, you control all over it. It is idiot proof, or you can take control of every aspect.Like I said, I am new at all of this, but if your a beginner like myself you cann't go wrong with this camera. This was the Camera that was recommended to me over and over again. 500.00 has got me up and going ( that is with film, tripod, extra batteries, filter, camera etc. )It WOULD have gotten 5 stars, but that manual, lol kinda a hard read."
+15450,2,Their first and best,"This album kicks some serious butt. (Sorry, my 3D gaming lingo is creeping into this review.)But wow, what an album. You just can't stop it and you just can't stand still while listening to it. Great stuff."
+15451,1,Too much of the same thing,"What I mean is, just about every song on here sounds like the one before. No variety. Not to mention the fact that I believe the whole band is trying to see who can either out play the other before one drops on his face or who can play the fastest. Doesn't keep one's attention. Really the only good thing about this, is the album cover."
+15452,1,Very uncomfortable for the kids,"There is little back support for the kids; they are essentially sitting in a sling/hammock that folds them in half. It is positioned so they are sitting very upright so when they fall asleep their heads crook way over - makes me worried about their airway (I am a physician). The other downside is that it doesn't roll straight when used as a jogging stroller, and when used as a trailer it says it is not safe to use over 10MPH. Ahem... That is barely a roll, and they made no mention of this when I was purchasing it. I hope I can sell it on Criags list"
+15453,1,Sizes are off,"I am totally agreeing with another poster about the size problem. I ordered a XL and it is more like a Medium. Very unhappy. Don't go by the sizing chart, it doesn't hold true. I doubt I will order a Reebok item again. A customer shouldn't have to pay shipping an item back that is not as descibed..."
+15454,1,sent damaged units three times,"This looks like an excellent product, but I've had a terrible time trying to get an factory new one from sangean through amazon. The speaker was dented on the first; the case was dinged up on the second and third, clearly the result of prior use. When paying $140 for a glorified clock radio, I think it's fair to expect mint condition!"
+15455,1,Same information,I didn't gain any new information or tips on dealing with the lap band. This same information I have received from my doctor and off the internet. I think it would be good for someone who didn't know anything about the procedure.
+15456,2,Family history,"I love this character, and reading about his mother was very interesting. I began the series a few years ago, and have never been disappointed."
+15457,2,Totally satisfied. . .,My Skagen watch keeps perfect time. (I check it against the US Bureau of Standards and against my cell phone GPS). It is super light weight and silent. I can't hear a tick. My watch is an attention getter: a twenty something National Guardsman on an airplane remarked about my watch and asked good questions. It also caught the attention of some older women whom I know slightly. So you can see the great Danish design has across the board appeal.
+15458,1,mega disappointment,"I waited and wanted this movie to be awesome. It fell so flat. The plot was more hole filled than 10 swiss cheeses. It bordered at times ona spoof and seemed cut to shreds. Fassbender is awesome and lends a lot of presence to what ends up being a kind of teen envinment studies nightmare. The hard scifi grit is repalced with an almost liberal arts science expedition attitude mixed with oh my gosh evil corporate plot that never materializes. The deus ex machinas motivations are murky at best and the audience is just supposed to accept all the coincidentaly, unlikely, sappy bs thrown at it without a lick of respect as to the intelligent viewer. If they had spent a little more time writing th eplot, and slightly less on marketing everyone would have been happier."
+15459,2,For when love makes you sick to your stomache,"when you are on the verge of either crying or screaming, but you are not sure which one, and you cannot express with words how upset you are...this album will be the sweetest thing you have ever heard, and you will almost want to keep your broken heart simply because the beauty of this album turns the suffering into beautythe passion alone makes this album worth buyingbut to top it off, they express their passion perfectly with a new, breathtaking album that has stong infulences in hardcore punk and a unique guitar style that is a pleasure to listen tothis album thrives with its ability to elicit strong sentimental value, and almost impossible feat that every musician wished they could accomplishit is similar to being really thirsty and drinking a nice cold glass of waterit is also very energetic and your sorrows seem to drownd out in the sea of musical intensity Fear Before the March of Flames have created in this albumit is awesome"
+15460,1,haha who cares!!!!!!!,you take this way too seriously-- i almosy feel bad for you-- almost- THIS ALBUM SUCKS!!!!
+15461,2,Not just for entertaining but great for the kids too,"I find the New Mrs Lee's Cookbook so versatile - It's so handy when I need to entertain and yet also contains good ideas for kids too. As a new mom, I find recipes like Sook Muy Tong (creamed corn and minced chicken soup), Lobah (shredded yam and meat) and Potato Balls easy to prepare and help take away the pain of trying to get the little one to finish his meals.By the way, this book is great as a gift too; the recipes are easy to follow and the photos are incredible - they really make your mouth water."
+15462,2,"One of the Worst, but Funniest Ninja Movies EVER!","Ok, to start things off this movie is a definite 5 for those of you who are looking for bad movies that are funny in a camp sort of way. Everything about this movies is absurd, from the one white 'ninja' who is a ninja but hes slow and just shoots other ninjas with a gun, deep down there is something so wrong but so funny about shooting a ninja with a gun. And lets not forget the actual ninjas, like one scene where a bunch of them are rolling around on the ground slowly inching closer doing ninja-stunts only to be immediately 'dealt' with.Bottom line its side splitting humor that doesn't know when to stop, and didn't even know it started. And I really want to give away the ending because its so funny but I won't out of respect for the semi-plot that has been forced into this movie."
+15463,2,Great performance!,"Only an actress of Meryl Streep's genius could make a total SKANK ...""BUTCHER THATCHER""...SEEM HUMAN. Any role Meryl Streep commits to playing is elevated by her skill."
+15464,1,Not much better than an old broom,"Don't waste your money, after less than a year, I'm shopping for a vacuum again. Do yourself a favor and spend a little extra money and buy something that actually works."
+15465,2,great DVD,"if you are a true rush fan,you will love it.I have no trouble with the sound.I have it runing through my stereo,and it sounds fine.the sound is not the greatest just runing through the tv.but if you are a true fan I think you will be pleased"
+15466,2,Great writing ...,"A friend gave me this book to read and I thought it was great writing throughout ... the author is no novice ... if not for the fact espionage does very little for me, this would be a five star review, but it's my inability to get excited about anything spy that left me wanting in the end. I did enjoy reading about the Swedish coastline during WWII because of having read The 900 Days (about the seige of Leningrad) and how the nazi's had mined all the surrounding waters, so it was enjoyable to be somewhat familiar with that material. Once again, the writing was superb ... espionage just isn't my cup of tea."
+15467,2,This pad does its job well at a lower cost than others.,"Okay - its a pad - not much to say about it; however, it is functional and inexpensive. We have had it for 9 months now and nothing has gotten through. That is most likely due to the fact that our daughter only had one accident - but it worked. That's what matters right! Buy 2 of these - keeping one ready for that inevetible for the middle-of-the-night emergency."
+15468,1,very disappointed,"bought this knife cuisinart was a durable high quality knife , was i ever wrong used it 6 or 8 times and knife quit fileting to top it off i;ve tried twice to contact them with not so much of a hello from them geeeeeeeez THANKS for very expensive lesson"
+15469,2,Precision Blu-Ray,"The accuracy of Criterion's new blu-ray version of BROADCAST NEWS is evident the minute the 20th-Century Fox logo is displayed: it is rich in the kind of grain that dominated film stock of the eighties. The color timing is superb and topples all previous video releases in richness and detail. The video extras are indulgent promotional pieces - crass for Criterion; but the commentary by Brooks will be of interest for those that want to delve deeper.The film is a pinnacle in Brooks' career - he never did anything better, before or since, and all his experience in the tacky world of sitcom television really pays off here - and he successfully avoids making a pastiche of Chayefsky's cynically brilliant NETOWRK in favor of his own perceptive humanist view. Brooks rightfully and continually praises his marvelous BROADCAST NEWS cast; it's a picture dependent on their perfectly pitched performances."
+15470,2,They do what they're supposed to,"While you may get the impression they are metal, these push-up bars are definitely plastic. That said, they are thick and sturdy enough so you shouldn't have to worry about breakage. They don't rotate like other advertised models and the grey plastic ""bar"" disconnects from the black plastic ""base"" if you pull hard enough. They shipped in a thin cardboard box and I saw some slight scuffing on the sides from the two pieces rubbing against each other during transit. The padding is suitable and the rubber feet on the base keep them from sliding on hardwood floors. There is nothing particularly remarkable about this set but if you're looking for an inexpensive way to save your wrists, then these will work."
+15471,1,Not for children,"It looks good.It is easy to adjust.Your child will put feet on stupid useless hook on the underside of the tray and PRESTO, tray will be free. (first time at 10 months)Added bonus... a real pain to clean tray and seat.Great for adults. (quick adjust... one hand blah blah blah.)NOT FOR CHILDREN."
+15472,2,Great Lawn Mower,This is such a great lawn mower. Our friends had the bubble lawn mower and said it leaked and didn't work well. This one is sturdy and will last a long time. It is two toys in one because it acts as a corn popper as well as the lawn mower.
+15473,2,Fun Fun Fun,"My daughter is now 21 months old and she stills enjoys dancing with the songs this toy makes, not to mention creating unique animals with the different halves of the bodies. We've had it since she was 15 months. We also have the alphabet one too. I have given this as a gift. I would highly recommend it!"
+15474,1,So deep,If you're a totally hip liberal pseudo-intellectual and like reading about interspecies relationships between human beings and giant red anthropoid bug-things then this is the right book for you!
+15475,1,BAD BUY!,"Routing - very poor. It told me to get off a major toll road in the middle of my jouney. What because there was some dirt track which was shorter? Another thing it did was tell me to turn right, make a u-turn and turn right again instead of just continuing on the same road. That's just mad!No way points - It would make sense to plan a long journey in advance on a PC and put in a few way points. No chance with this Navman.Unstable software. - requires frequent rebooting.Destinations - Ahhh this makes me mad. I even struggled to find Miami International airport. If you don't know the zip code finding a street is very difficult and frustrating."
+15476,2,O Say can you See By James W Moore,Our Sunday School class uses Dr. Moore's books to read a chapter and review together each Sunday. This is the fourth of his books we have used. This book is strong in very good illustrative stories to develop the scripture used and to help Dr Moore make his emphasis for the scripture.
+15477,1,Dissapointment,"Well it very pleasant that a fresh wave of music comes from Barcelona streets to our homes all over the world. I don't where know these band is coming from but it is clear that Ojos De Brujos opened the way for them. So thinking of that i have to say that they can't reach Ojos De Brujos emotional ""breaks"" at all .They seem to put this record in market just to win benefits from Ojos succes till now ."
+15478,2,I love this cartoon Series,I am so glad to have found the second season of this cartoon series. It is every bit as good as the first season volumes. Now I believe I have the complete collection.
+15479,2,Step Up (Widescreen),"This is an excellent movie. I storyline was pretty good, nothing that would make you roll your eyes throughout. This one is the best Step Up with an actual storyline, if you would rather watch more dancing then check out Step Up 2 the Streets or Step Up 3D. Those have amazing dance scenes."
+15480,2,A must-read,"This is the fundamental book in attachment theory. The first to really understand this important issue. Nice to read, simple and very informative."
+15481,2,Great Read for 'tweeners',"This was a very easy read that offers a lot of insightinto the Indian ways, culture. I think it would be agreat book for classroom discussion for students from5th-7th grade."
+15482,2,Great - once it was formatted.,"I tried this drive on two XP and one Win2K PCs and they all detected the hardware but didn't recognize it as a drive after following the installation instructions. Long story short, there are apparently some situations where Windows doesn't recognize the factory-set FAT32 partition. The Western Digital support Website has a knowledgebase with a nicely written answer about the issue (ID 207) that takes you through the steps for initializing and formatting the drive. It took about 20 minutes to chug through the formatting with a single NTFS partition, but now it works as advertised. Happy ending."
+15483,1,"A very strange ""book""","I wanted to get some insight into all of the liberal bashing going on these days, so I read Slander. All I learned was that the author is very unhappy about most of the reporting done by the media (except Fox News?) and labels it liberal. No working definition of ""liberal"" is even offered.The author also throws in a great deal of tirades about Bill Clinton, as if that makes her points.If you go in for this sort of thing, you will probably find Mike Savage's rants more entertaining."
+15484,1,Truly demonically inspired,"This book appears to be demonically inspired. As mentioned by other reviewers, it is a 'twist' on the story of Adam and Eve in the Garden. The 'twist' is that the older Rabbit (God) was shown to be a fool. It's a simple book with a message. If you want to undermine biblical teachings to your children, this is a good book. If you believe that there are really forces of evil at work in the world, you should ask why this book was created."
+15485,2,Amor Eterno Entre Dos,Amo esta novela. Todos los actores hicieron un trabajo maravilloso. Deberian hacer novelas haci tan buenas. Es raro encontrar tanta quimica hoy en dia en novelas. Se la recomiendo a todos.
+15486,2,Very Talented Performer,"I too bought the american cd after hearing ""spaceship"" but found that song too be only near as good as the rest of the cd.Cry,free man,gravity all rule.I can't seem to get the songs out of my head or the cd out of my player.Buy this one, you just have to hear it too understand!"
+15487,2,Hollenthon?,"When I first caught wind of this band, I was quite impressed. The double basses were completely captivating, the complete uniqueness of the album was also intriguing. But after a few listens, I realized this isn't all that original. It's simply a re-hash of bands like Hollenthon. However is this a bad thing? HELL NO! The gothic slow rythmes, the quick powerful leads, the amazing drum beats. The mixture of growly death metal vocals and the choral clean vocals is done very tastefully. The problems I came across in this album were the lyrics, they are kind of strange, if you can figure them out :)Check out Little Dreamer, Hero In a Dream, and Goblins' Dance.Truely a tribute to metal."
+15488,2,This is one CD you have own because he sings so well.,I bought this CD after I went to a concert a radio station gave. Ginuwine was there and I fell in love with his music. I just had to go get it. I listened to it every single day. There is romantic songs and dance songs. you would love this CD.
+15489,2,"If you liked the movie, you'll like the soundtrack too","If you've seen the movie, then you pretty much know exactly what you're getting when you buy the soundtrack. That being said, I love the songs from the movie, the other ones are OK if you're into folk music."
+15490,1,Why is most Christian fiction so lame?,"If you're hooked on the LEFT BEHIND series, then I guess you have to read this one too. But if you'd like to read a much more intelligent book on the subject, I recommend THE EZEKIEL OPTION by Joel C. Rosenberg or the books of THE CHRIST CLONE TRILOGY by James BeauSeigneur."
+15491,1,not designed properly,This a cool looking toy but it just doesn't work. The head and body pieces are simply too heavy to be supported by the legs so they always fall over. Very dissapointing and frustrating for the kids.
+15492,1,Horrible,"It is plain horrible. No plot, bad casting, spoiled brat as main character. I felt like watching a bunch of depressed drug adgicts fooling around in monster costums."
+15493,2,Overlooked Gem,"Why this one is always overlooked I just don't understand. Originally conceived as a ""covers"" album (see liner notes) Trane takes Chim Chim Cheree and Nature Boy even further out than he had done with My Favorite Things while the Brazilia and Song of Praise are excellent examples of Coltrane's compositions at the time.While its great that labels want to include bonus tracks sometimes the set would be better without them. Here its mixed. Feeling Good is an ok track from the same time period while the two bonus Nature Boy versions are very interesting.Plays (along with perhaps Sun Ship) is a great palce to start a post Love Supreme collection."
+15494,2,Amazing Band,"It doesn't matter how much this album is, it is worth every penny! A wonderful mix of songs that you can't help but hum along to! [...] or [...] are great places to go to get the album. Enjoy!"
+15495,1,sucks,"It's not that the router sucks - the router works fine. But this is a >VPN< router with ZERO netgear support for VPN. You cannot find the VPN client software on the website - it's a dead link. After locating the client software there's no serial number or ""buy"" option - it's a dead link. I'm currently on hold for 20 minutes with tech support from an off-shore call center with unintelligble english. Netgear is clearly not serious about their customer service. Buy Linksys."
+15496,2,the other,"This is by far one of the greatest movies I have ever seen. The story is incredible. I'm surprised no one tried to remake this flim, clearly overlooked. This is a true movie lover's horror flim. Some one with sense, not for people who want to see heads chopped off, and a lot of blood. This movie will make you rewind (due to the fact it's not on dvd) and watch over and over."
+15497,1,"A chip short, twice","The chips are decent, but the set only had 499 chips, not 500. It's short one of the white ones. Now my only option appears to be return the whole (really heavy) thing, or just put up with the shortage. Weak quality control on this product.Received replacement. It's also a chip short, and the case was damaged in shipment. My bad for not hanging on to the original until the replacement arrived. I could have had a full set with undamaged case. I returned this one too, for a refund. (Sure glad I bought that Prime membership!)Saw identical chips at the nearest Target store, which is 40 miles away, last night. They're similarly low priced. I'm going to buy there instead just so that Amazon doesn't have to eat any more returns and I can do an on-the-spot quality check.Amazon was great about the returns."
+15498,1,I lost my season!,"I bought this exclusively to use on NCAA Football 2003 to save my Dynasty. After a couple seasons using a regular college, it got corrupt and I lost everything. I tried again with a new college and it was corrupt after 3 games. Now it will only go a couple of games before it gets corrupt again and I have to trash everything. It was the greatest for the couple weeks while it worked because it holds everything, but it is terrible when all of your hard work (ha!) goes down the tubs because of a bad product."
+15499,2,Pretty album,"Staind is going a step forward with this album. Songs that I recommend are : Fray,Yesterday, So Far Away, Price To Play, Falling Down, and Fill Me Up. I spend some bucks on this album and it was worth it, I like it. But there are some songs are just little overproduced. . ."
+15500,1,Shuffle is Junk,"I bought one for a friend for chrismas. Spent alot of time and and a bit of money on iTunes to create a playlist. Copied on the Shuffle - but couldn't get it to play. Since then I've been to the Apple store and got it to work for awhile. When she updated on her computer it stopped working again. Spent hours with the on-line support documents. This is the WORST software experience I've had. From Apple???? As a long-time Apple fan, it hurts! Whatever happened to plug and play. I was going to buy myself an ipod, but will look for other MP# players."
+15501,2,The tree tree oil really works on the odor,"This stick with the tree tea oil works really well on BO even over night. the only downer is that it doesn't have a refreshing scent. But for a natural aluminum free deodorant it works great on keeping the stink away, and I think it mostly has to do with the tea tree oil so I couldn't tell you how this brand does if it doesn't contain the oil and is just a scented stick. It is the most similar to an aluminum stick deodorant i have used comparatively on smell, I don't know about sweating, I have yet to do a really hard work out for the sweat test. but I am of the opinion it is good for your body to sweat and then you need a shower anyway so what does it matter. Hopefully this helps."
+15502,2,John Williams creates yet another masterpiece!!!!!,"John Williams can really bring out the Star Wars from the heart. Creating songs like Duel of the Fates (my favorite.) Why not buy this fantastic CD? Even if you hate Jar Jar Bink's guts (like me) His song is pretty cool. Bring on the Episode 2 soundtrack, Williams! It will be yet another masterpiece everyone can enjoy!!!!!"
+15503,2,It's out of common! and it's great!,"An happy blend of techno and cuban music! What an idea. Don't be affraid, listen to it. It is an alternate way to enjoy techno, it is an alternate way to enjoy cuban music. Music to dance on. Say goodbye to commercial supposed latin music, like Ricky Martin or Enrique Eglesias or all the so bad midley of these short time success... To go out of the path, in the techno and in the music to dance on, try this album."
+15504,1,schizo was better,"This just sounds like Geri wincing in pain. I hate it. Schizo was much more fun; Geri sings badly on both albums, but at least on the last one she was coyly admitting it was OK. This time she is clearly trying too hard."
+15505,1,Not Worth the $29,"Anybody who thinks this is a good book.... should get out and read more. There are so many facts that could be detailed more, but just glossed over. She never used steroids? Whatever? And why did she not go into detail about having her jaw restructured in order to look more ""beautiful""? I guess that blows away the ""I know I'm pretty"" schitick through out the book right out of the order. If you like it, take 5th grade literature over again"
+15506,1,THE RAPTURE,THIS WAS THE WRONG MOVIE1 IT WAS SENT TO A FRIEND AS A GIFT AND THEY WERE NOT PLEASED. THEY WERE LOOKING FOR A CHRISTIAN MOVIE AND THIS WAS NOT IT1
+15507,2,A Great Series,"I bought Sakura Diaries on a whim. I'd never heard of it and I wanted something different. I was tired of the things I watched on a regular basis and wanted a change. So I bought this series and absolutely loved it.It's about a young girl. She's in love with a guy but he's in love with another girl. This is definitely a series recommended to everyone. It's fun, delightful, and wondeful. Especially that you're getting the entire series, all 12 episodes for such a low price. Highly recommended."
+15508,2,GREAT book!,My small womans group wanted to do a bible study on this book and at first I was against it because I felt like I wasn't anxious. After reading the first chapter I did a complete turn around! This book is VERY good! It really makes you look at your life in a different way and see what is really important and what really matters. I would recommend it to anyone!
+15509,2,Excellent Product,I bought this book for my girlfriend and she is very pleased with it. Excellent product!
+15510,2,chilling,this book is chillingi am a conspiracy freak and this is the kind of book that gets me goingit is like 1984 with big brother is watchingin a way it reminds me of my school
+15511,2,Great Value,"These speakers are not going to blow the doors off or anything, but unless you're planning on having a dance party or something, they're fine. They're more than worth the price. The same price (or more) would get you a pair of mediocre bookshelf speakers, so why not get these instead? I highly recommend these as long as they stay $37.99 or lower."
+15512,2,Roger Cicero - Männersachen,"Wow, this guy and his band are good! This CD is a must for big band/swing enthusiast and good music lovers in general. After listening to this CD I would have to agree with earlier reviewers that it really doesn't matter that the vocals are all in German.In fact, it's really kind of refreshing.The band and the horn arrangements are absolutely amazing throughout the album. While we in the U.S. are subjected to Mariah Carey asking to ""touch her body"" (which I doubt will happen anytime in the future...) Roger Cicero and his band are putting out some really, really good music! There are a few good video clips out on ""YouTube"" so you can judge for yourself (skip the crappy homemade videos as they will only irritate you). View the good videos, buy the CD from [...], and tell a friend to do the same."
+15513,1,Cornwell Needs to Stick to Kay Scarpetta,"I have read everything Patricia Cornwell has written and I have thoroughly enjoyed each one, even though the Hammer books are not my favorites.Isle of Dogs was a dog, in my opinion. It's only purpose was to poke fun at people and had no story line that I could determine other than speaking of the bowels of the Governor at every oportunity.I will continue to read Cornwell only if she returns to the forensic theme."
+15514,2,Clean and Smooth,"If you're true fan of Brant and his style than you will enjoy this acoustic offering. Both personal and political, the lyrics come out intense and is wrapped around his familiar guitars."
+15515,1,Mic is crap,"When it works it is pretty good, but the mic only worked for 2 weeks. Nothing specialed happened to the headset.So i am pretty disapointed. Don not by this."
+15516,2,Wayne's War,"John Wayne's answer to the anti-war movement was, for a good many years, the only film about Vietnam. It's easy for people to knock this movie or the war itself -- and anyone who thinks the people of South Vietnam are better off under a communist dictatorship than the government they had, then we have nothing to talk about. Actually this was made before she became ""Hanoi Jane"" -- a tag which follow her to the grave, GREEN BERETS is basically a WWII movie set in Vietnam. It has moments. Also starring David Jansen, Aldo Ray, Jim Hutton, Jason Evers, Bruce Cabot and Mr. Sulu himself, George Takei."
+15517,2,On the Beach - Great Work,"A lesser known work of Fred Astaire, Anthony Perkins, Ava Gardner and Gregory Peck, but one that is well presented and underscores the fears associated with the Cold War / Nuclear Holocaust era. It provides hope (even in the midst of futility) that ""man"" will strive to survive and love will prevail. A great addition to any library."
+15518,2,Such a strange and wonderful experience...,"There really isn't much to be said about this album, only that it's sort of like Seattle's solution to Radiohead. It's a bit more poppy, but not in a bad way. ""Light Fingered Feeling..."" is excellent indie-noise-rock, that's completely new and different. The vocals aren't flawless, but work well with the intriguing lyrical content. The music itself is expansive and oddly fascinating. My only complaint is that it's not nearly long enough, clocking in a bit over 30 minutes. It's a pretty big let-down when you realize the CD just ended, but no worries. It's the type of thing you can repeat."
+15519,2,OH YEAH!!!,"If you thought ""The Whispered Lies Of Angels"" was good then your in for a great surprise.... this cd was more the perfect... except the fact that it is an e.p. but like i said if you like there first then you have nothing to lose.. you will love this album BUY IT!!!!"
+15520,2,A must-have for any Irish Concertina fan,"I've heard Noel Hill play the Bucks of Oranmore a number of times now, but the version he plays on this CD (solo) is still the most spectacular I've ever heard and the recording is worth purchasing just for this single track. Mind you, you'll also get a number of other amazing tracks featuring superb Irish (anglo) concertina and button-accordion playing accompanied by excellent dancing. Noel's set of reels The Rainy Day, The Merry Blacksmith and The Silver Spear will also make you stop in your tracks and listen in awe. This recording is not to be missed if you're a fan of energetic and passionate traditional Irish music!"
+15521,2,As good as can be expected.,Audio and Video were great considering how old this movie is. This is the best presentation of this movie I have see. Its not perfect but you cant expect it to be considering HD anything is relatively new.
+15522,2,"Hard, but Fun","I love this game, but it is pretty hard. Also, it is very annoying. The last few chapters are just a few examples. This is a fun game and will probably take awhile to beat. The last chapter is where I am at, and I pretty much quit on it. I got so frustrated on that chapter. Also, Chapter 2 is annoying. (Yes, it is only the 2nd chapter). It is like a never-ending tree with a never-ending maze! It is impossible to find your way around! No, a six-year-old will not have an easy time. I think that this game would be difficult for a six-year old, or seven, eight either. This game would be impossible for me without a strategy guide. If you get this game, I recommend you also get the strategy book with it. This game is a sequel to Paper Mario, but has more to it. Now, you can play as Bowser AND Peach at the end of each chapter. There are also twists and turns in the plot which make the game very exiting and interesting. Still, if you like a little challenge, I recommend this game."
+15523,2,Their best after their early days,"Firefly introduces John Lawton, Heep's second singer, who has a great voice. Overall this album (and the others with Lawton) has more of a bluesy/soul kind of feel - it reminds me of the early Whitesnake and David Coverdale stuff of the same period. I'd like to point out here that, after the first 3 albums, Uriah Heep never really put out a constantly ""heavy"" album, (in fact, almost all the remasters I have have Mick Box saying ""not one of our heavier efforts . . .!""), but this one is a little more hard-rocking than the others with Lawton. Overall, it's a great late-70's hard rock disc."
+15524,1,Dissappointed,"I decided to go with the gloves because of the other review. Unfortunately, when I went snowboarding, they did not keep my hands toasty. I found that while I was going down the run I was fine, but my hands were freezing any other time. After about a minute without activity my entire had was cold. It made ski lift rides miserable. I was snowboarding in about 12 F conditions including wind chill. So maybe they are great if you never drop below 20 F."
+15525,2,A Good Overview of Military Leadership & Management Style,"I enjoyed learning about the Military method of training, developing and teaching people to lead and manage. Based on the synopsis, I was hoping to see how the Military leadership styles worked in the business world. But the examples of business applications were somewhat limited. Overall an interesting book"
+15526,2,Fast shipping and my worms are LOVING IT!!!,I like absolutely everything about this worm factory! There's absolutely nothing i dislike about the product. My worms are very active in there and loving it! They are eating all the pulp from my morning and night time pulp from vegetable juice that I make + banana peels and all kinds of organic matter. I highly recommend this product to anyone that has no idea on how to raise worms and collect worm castings. If you are new i would suggest you just get this instead of going through the trouble of making one yourself and then struggling with trial and error.
+15527,1,TERRIBLE waste of time,"Wow, if you've ever been fooled by cover art then I'm not the only one. Cute title, upbeat cover art, respectable actors...too bad the director came off as a no-talent film student on his first project. This movie had absolutely NO fluidity, no plot or substance among many other things and it was depressing throughout the entire thing to boot. I wouldn't even call it a movie, just a bunch of random scenes strewn together. Weird and difficult to watch. I made myself sit through the whole thing even though I tried to talk myself out of it from about 10 minutes in until it finally gave mercy and ended. Don't even bother!"
+15528,1,Ink runs out!,"We have had very good results with the photos that printed. However, the ink cartridge runs out before printing all 40 of the blanks that are included in the kit. We now have a total of 48 blanks with no ink!"
+15529,1,Doesn't transfer well to the USA,"Like ABBA, Robbie Williams is a Euro-megaphenomenon who doesn't cross the Atlantic that well. It isn't that we think he is terrible; we just don't hear or see anything to get excited about. His cheekiness is best understood/appreciated/loved by Brits. The music seems a bit - contrived and plastic. True, Williams doesn't take himself too seriously but we can't appreciate him being tongue-in-cheek/half-sincere without knowing the man as well as the Brits, who have seen him grow from boy band member to solo act. Most Americans have never seen him and couldn't pick him out of a line-up. If he wants to conquer America, he needs to hit the road and introduce himself to us Yanks on TV and stage."
+15530,2,"My 2nd favorite of ""newer"" recordings....","I absolutely love his Al Jolson CD. However, John singing in a more intimate manner (those wonderful Cole Porter songs) ...well it just doesn't get much better. Ditto what Lee said....I'd buy it back from that one lone naysayer, too."
+15531,1,A film about a bunch of psychos,"This is a film about killers - mindless psychos - the dregs of humanity - it is a cartoon sort of film with cartoon dialogue spoken by cartoon characters. It is directed by a cartoon character. It is without any virtue as adult entertainment. It is loved by cartoon characters who relate to the cartoon characters in the film. How sad. How about a film about decent people striving to rise above their limitations, about sacrifice and honour, about love and compassion, a film with insight and meaning and not just a slick orgy of foul mouthed psychos standing around killing each other? This movie is a toilet."
+15532,2,another head banga,"k here's tha deal, you know red a meth always been droppin hot shiot since day one but this one bout to take em to another level. these 2 cats bout to rip up the hip hop industry again and probably take it to a way ""higher"" level. it should be illegal for these 2 guys to work together anymore cuz it makes it so unfair for everyone else in the industry, these guys just got some serious chemistry and they show it again on this album.... buy it, even if you wasn't a fan b4 you will be now"
+15533,2,Not sure...,"How to review this exactly, but amazon asked me too. I've had it for quite a while, it works like its supposed to, and I've used it a lot. No issues and works well. With my D90 I never have to worry about running out of space."
+15534,2,if you are 50+ You cannot miss this movie!!!,"Its not faced paced filled with destruction and mayhem along the way. It is a really good feel good movie. There are all the elements to a wonderful story line with a few little twists. The actors do their job with polish and style that only someone who has been doing it for years can pull off. I was feeling down about not being as prepared for the future as I should be. I have been for the last couple years. Then this movie comes along, and sneaks up on you and suddenly Im going to get ready for an adventure of my own!!! Why not what am I waiting for???You really need to see this, they dont make them like this very often any more. And Id hate for you to miss it!!"
+15535,1,Casio Men's Databank Digital Watch # DBC62-1,Bought this watch to replace another Casio of higher value that broke. Did buy the cheaper one since I do not use all the Telememo and Phone functions in the replaced one. Watch major drawback is the night light illumination. It is very faint and illuminates only from the left side of the dial making reading of the minutes very difficult...would not recommend for this shortfall.
+15536,1,cheap,Product lasted 3 weeks. Very cheap build. Strap broke WAY too easily. Looking for a better product. I would not recommend that anyone purchase this.
+15537,2,Met Kate in The Writer's Chatroom - found a new author to read,"I met Kate Flora in The Writer's Chatroom and bought this book.I liked the main character and the story line was very engaging. At times I wanted to climb inside the book and shake the birth mother of the MC's adopted sister. And the landlady, oh, don't get me started!Great Read! I am on the second of this series and am enjoying it as well.Kate Flora has a new fan."
+15538,1,It stops working just after the warranty is over,"After one year and two months of little and careful use, my Zire 71 stop recognizing any touch on the screen. I researched in the internet and discovered that a lot of people who bought a Zire 71 around the same date have the same problem as I do. PalmOne just said that I would have to pay 1/3 of the purchase value if I wanted to get it fixed.So, do not buy anything from a company which does not respect your rights as a customer. This is obviously a project flaw or a defect in production batch, but they do not admit it. Ethics? I do not think they know this word..."
+15539,2,CHI?,GoT CHI? itz a good book READ ITREAD ITREAD ITREAD ITREAD ITREAD ITREAD ITREAD ITREAD ITREAD ITREAD ITREAD ITREAD ITNOW!!!!!
+15540,1,could be better,"I ordered this a sa gift for a friend and when it arrived I was a bit disappointed with the product. The actual paints were very nice and fair quality. The amount of the paint supplied was too little considering the price tag. The tray that held the paints was very flimsy too. I feel for the amount of money spent on this, it could have had more paint and had better packaging."
+15541,2,Great Photo Electric Sensor Smoke Alarm,"I installed these Alarms in closed door Bedrooms, Alarm is designed for sensing small smoldering fires ,before it develops into a larger fire,this is in addition to Hallway alarms already installed .I feel, Bedrooms with Closed doors at night, need their own protection .Very easy to install , nicely designed and looks great .Highly Recommended"
+15542,1,Disappointing,"After reading the glowing reviews for this book, I was expecting a good story. The only thing I liked about this book was the feeling of hard earned accomplishment I felt when I finally finished it. It's an overly long convoluted tale with few likable characters. On the cover of this book, Elizabeth George was compared to P.D. James which I believe is a gross injustice to James"
+15543,2,"it works perfect, and that's all one needs...","got the item in a few days. i plugged it in and whoops, everything worked fine. surely something to recommend!"
+15544,2,A real Chipper Chappie!,"What a top bloke? Easy, well explained recipes that are the tastiest around, 10 out of 10 for Jamie. Delia will remain my ""Bible"" but I'm more likely to dip into ""Jamie"" for inspiration 21st Century style. BUT, where are the other titles Amazon? This is just not good enough!"
+15545,2,Beautiful subtle eye color,"This is a beautiful soft plum color, with pink and creates a natural-looking eye liner, not ""made up"" looking. It glides on well; one of my favorites."
+15546,2,All time favorite Yo Gotti album,This is my favorite Yo Gotti album hands down you can almost listen to the whole cd without skipping to the next track five stars all the way.
+15547,1,Disappointing,"What's the difference between this film and ""Cool As Ice"" starring Vanilla Ice? This film has a better soundtrack. The only redeeming quality of it, is that there's a catchy tune during the end credits. The plot went nowhere, and character development was very underdone.10 years from now, people will hear the plot of this film and scoff at it at the video store. A white guy trying to get respect by winning a ""rap battle."" Yes folks, a ""rap battle."" These gangstas don't use guns to take out the enemy, they use raps. What a ridiculous film. Eminem needs to stick to singing and stay away from serious endeavors such as acting. Although this film was so poorly directed and had such a laughable screenplay that it didn't matter how good the acting was."
+15548,2,A wonderfully enlightening read!,"This book gives the Arthur myth a place and time. I love the way that I learned and enjoyed the book at the same time. Historical novels are a favorite of mine, with this time being among the top. Engaging and fun, I look forward to reading the next book in the series"
+15549,1,Insulting to the Irish,"McCourt's memoir perpetuates every existing stereotype about the Irish, and caters to a few new ones. He seems to indict an entire country for his family's most particular kind of poverty, which is misleading and unfair. James Joyce's works, with their less-than-flattering depictions of Dublin life, seem almost nationalistic in comparison. No non-Irish person should read this book believing that it represents the true state of affairs in Limerick, much less Ireland as a whole."
+15550,2,stretchy keyboard cover,cover fits very well. Someone else saw it & liked it. seems they were going to get one.
+15551,2,Would be three stars...,"I just got the Kingdom Hearts manga today and finished reading it. Overall, I'll have to say I wasnt completely satisfied. It was too short and the scenes felt very rushed. I did like it because I love the game Kingdom Hearts, and I love manga. Seeing it in manga form was great. The drawings were very good and the dialogue is good too. The scenes are also well done, but just feel really rushed. It was lucky I gave it a 4..."
+15552,1,Not impressed,"I was not impressed with this item and now must submit to the lengthy return process. The software included did not work, the customer support line was a phone call to HONG KONG and the directions were difficult to follow. Keep shopping, this is not the MP3 player for you."
+15553,2,"My favorite book, so my favorite movie.","I feel like there was certain parts in the book that should have been in the movie to better explain things. Like, why Edward's eyes change color and the background on Alice and her memory loss. Robert Pattinson over-acted a bit sometimes, but I still love him so!!!!"
+15554,1,Idiot product,Careful you might need and external power supply for this microphone ($9.00) that only Koss or Radio Shack sells...Didn't see that listed anywhere above didja? This produduct should be shoved up the makers behind. Amazon should not be selling this product. PERIOD.
+15555,2,SO MUCH BETTER THAN NIRVANA,"I seen this on Mtv....these guys were so much better than the highly overated kurt Cobain and Nirvana. There is just no comparison between Jerry Cantrell's songwriting/guitar playing skills and Cobain's. Cobain may have invented this genera of music, but AIC took it to the next level, especially Cantrell. This is one of their best albums."
+15556,1,Shoe size narrower than anticipated & leather is very stiff,"I ordered the Sebago mens Dockside and am returning after wearing it just 10 minutes. The shoe is very narrow in width (I ordered an 8 1/2 medium which I wear for all styles of shoe) and pinched the balls of my feet even after loosening the laces. The leather is also very stiff with little play. Lastly, I ordered the shoe in brown and was surprised the color is much lighter than the website photo."
+15557,2,Great show!,"Although so far Firefly has been my favourite Joss Whedon work, this series has been excellent and left me wanting more at the end of the season! It gets better as you progress through the season, and I can see future seasons having ver intriguing and complex story lines. With all the crap that somehow manages to come back year after year, it is refreshing to see an intriguing, interesting show like this make it. Joss Whedon fans will be pleased with this - don't expect it to be his best, but of course there is the potential for greatness as we see the launch into season 2."
+15558,1,Beyond Gruesome,"This film is a bit of a disappointment. Despite a fair amount of unintentional humor (some examples of which are truly hysterical) the relentlessly graphic misogynistic death scenes make the film more disgusting than entertaining. A subtitle to the film could be MORONS WITH CAMERAS as it is ultimately a profoundly stupid, infantile film. It's definitely worth a look at least for shock value but isn't the romp many would have you believe. Jackie Kong's spoof of BLOOD FEAST, BLOOD DINER, is a much better bet if you are looking for fun gory psychotronic entertainment. Best scene in BLOOD FEAST: Ramses trying to decapitate the ugly Suzette."
+15559,2,Excellent and Powerful,A must read. It gets to the point on ones walk with the Lord. Also a reality check for the church and the indivdual. Very in depth.
+15560,1,Disapointment,You would expect this to run a few good years before it decides to crash. I was highly dissapointed in this product. My laptop was on its last days and I bought this to back up all of my information and pictures. My 8 year old Dell outlasted this piece! It failed and I almost lost everything. Would never recommend this to anyone.
+15561,1,"Poor quality, horrible vendor",Within 2 weeks of receiving this set the pages literally started to fall out of the book and the binding completely came apart. Seemed like it was glued by the vendor and resold. Totally not new like the vendor claimed. When I tried to get a refund the vendor acted like it was my fault the book came apart and only refunded me 50% of my money. Will NEVER order from this rude woman again.
+15562,2,LOVE IT!,"When I first bought this workout, I had no idea what to expect. As a dancer, I can say that this workout isn't quite as intense as a studio class, but its a great workout. The different segments add a lot of variety, and its become quite a hit amongst my friends. We've started to have our own ""cardio dance parties"", and love every moment of it. The steps are simple enough that if you don't get them the first time you do the workout, you will get them the second and third. Jennifer Galardi is a great instructor and makes the workout as much fun as any hip-hop or aerobics class I've gone to."
+15563,2,Great Johnny Duncan CD,"This is a great CD, with all his good songs, comes with 23 songs. Would recommend highly."
+15564,2,canon binoculars,They were for my wife for Xmas. She loves them they were everything she hoped for and more. We are looking forward to using them in CostaRice in a few montths. Will update then
+15565,1,A lot there but they're no good,It came with a lot of stickers but I thought the stickers were very small and had stupid images. I was creeped out by the images with real children heads on cartoon bodies - I thought it was too creepy to give to my daughter!
+15566,2,Life just got better,"When I first recieved this unit I absoulutly hated it. The first time my dog got ""bit"" I was ready to return it. My husband talked me into trying it for 1 week and then making up my mind. Well my dog has only been ""bit"" twice! We have since aquired another dog. She learned just as fast! This product is amazing for the normal pet. I wouldn't trust it on overly aggressive animals."
+15567,1,You Call This Talent?,"This album is proof that anyone with a photogenic face, average vocals, and semi-professional jazz skills can get a record deal. It amazes me that most of the people who listen to this junk have no idea that other artists have recorded these songs in a far more brilliant manner. This is jazz for the masses. The kind of people who light a candle, sip on some Merlot, and put in a Krall CD and somehow think that they can get some kind of fulfillment from this in their boring empty lives."
+15568,2,surprisingly good,"I hadnt seen this before . Me in my forties , my kids 3 , 5 & 8 years old enjoyed the movie . The music is very good . It has a great moral "" with hope , nothing is impossible "" There are racial overtones to the characters that may not be suitable to sensitive individuals . Animation is softer than your classic disney . Spanish ( Charo-like ) & French accent characters (fun & loveable). Love conquers all.Very young children may be frightened at certain parts .( barry manilow exec . producer , ...who knew ? )"
+15569,1,Didn't work for me,"Just couldn't get this to work for me, even after spending an hour with Netgear's technical support. For some reason, even though I was connected to it, I couldn't access the internet (even though I could access the internet if I connected directly to my dsl modem). Luckily I purchased this from Fry's, so I'll be returning it and looking at some other alternative."
+15570,2,RED EYE,"cool flick with some tension and suspense, wes craven directed this?? best film he's done in a long time"
+15571,1,There are better books on Hitler and the Holocaust.,"I give Rosenbaum credit for rejecting the apologists and the psychoanalysists, and reaffirming that Hitler was responsible for his actions and was a profoundly evil person. However, his book falls far short of explaining the Holocaust or why German people helped Hitler to carry out his final solution. At the end of this book, Rosenbaum has failed to ""explain"" much of anything, but has done little more than to merely ""describe.""I recommend Leonard Peikoff's _The Ominous Parallels_ for a truthful explanation of the Holocaust, and and introduction to the only philosophy which can prevent it from happening again."
+15572,2,"Puppets that eat people...Not original, but entertaining for the most part.","Critters #1 was, of course, the bestCritters #2 was not bad, but I found the kid from the first movie to be too annoying a second time around.Critters #3 was Leo DiCaprio's first movie, which I feel may have been his best. The third was funny and has the early 90s feel of stereotyped sitcom acting. Fun to watch with friends.Critters #4... bad. Avoid the last. Not even fun to ridicule."
+15573,2,Fair Portrayal,"The four-part documentary is well done, breaking the phenomenon that is modern China up into its 4 vital parts and examining them closely. The representation is fair, and each segment is well-paced. The bonus disc - the Great Wall, is also well recounted... except for the actors speaking with a fake Chinese accent: why not hire English speaking Chinese for the parts?"
+15574,2,Completely Satisfied,"I researched many of these strollers some costing $500. I settled on this one and am very happy. It was easy to put together, rolls easily, does not pull. It is quite roomy even for my tall 2 and 3 1/2 year old. The cupholder accessory is very useful, the storage below is adequate. The only issue is the padding or lack of at on the seats. The seats are slung around an aluminim frame. My 3 yo sons head lands right on the frame and he complains immediately. The lower edge of the seat where their thighs rest gets uncomfortable over time. I made some cushions with memory foam and they are very happy.I am a very picky consumer and would definitely buy this again.I gave four stars only becuase of the cushioning issue."
+15575,2,"Bud, not Buddy","This book was about a boy who was looking for his father after his mother died, butfound out what had happened to his mother in the past. Then, found his real family afterhe embarked on a long, hard adventure across the state of Michigan. The book made melearn how hard it was for a lot of people back in the 1930s, and to take the time to bethankful for what I do have. This book was great because it was a story that kept mewanting to finish reading the book. I couldn't wait find out what happened next in thebook. It was so descriptive that it made me feel like I was there the whole time watchinghim as it happened. I thought it was so funny when Bud was locked in the shed andthought that a hornets nest was a vampire bat. Then hit it with the rake to find that it wasnot a bat, but a hornet nest. He then jumped out of the window and started to roll aroundlike a dog in the grass. The bad part was that it like left you hanging at the end andwondering what happened next."
+15576,2,June: Still a Sensation!,"When I first Listened to ""Jukebox Blues"" I loved it, and honestly bought the alubms just for that song, but I listened to the entire albums the whole way through. Now I love every song! It starts out back in 1939 and continues until 2002! It includes everything from her vvery last recorded songs, to her original solo ""Oh! Susana"" at age 10, and EVERYTHING in Between. I love this album and I'm seriously a DIE HARD June fan, so anyone who loved her music would treasure this album forever. I listen to it every morning. That's how good it is. So if you are planning to buy this fantastic collection, YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT!"
+15577,2,great book on C++,"I think this book is the best I ever read on C++, it addressed the complex concept in a easy way,the exaples in this book is easy to follwoing. After read this book, I feel to write a C++ program is not so difficult as before."
+15578,1,Rose Cross College,"The book has a nice binding, but the pages within are facsimiles (copies) of an old publication, which includes underlining, markings, and way too much ink on some pages, so that the letters are blurrs. The print on each page is too close to the binding and is actually incorporated into the binding: You can't see the end of each sentence on the left-hand page, and you can't see the begining of each sentence on the right-hand page.As for content, the last lecture is about the only thing that interested me: ""The Origins of Symbolism."" The begining of the book is some sort of written description of a ceremony; not very valuable to me, but I guess you would have had to be there to appreciate the written description. I would not recommend this book.By the way, the reason I purchased this book was because I heard a William Cooper (Hour of the Time) broadcast where he actually read aloud the lecture on ""The Origins of Symbolism."""
+15579,2,Excellent Book!,"Absolutely excellent. One of my favorite trilogies, and the one I found it the most hard to put down."
+15580,1,CCR at their worst,While John Fogerty was at the helm CCR sold record after record. They were at the top. That wasn't good enough for brother Tom who quits the band. Other members Doug Clifford and Stu Cook were busy yelling I can sing I can write songs. John gave in and said do it and more or less walked away from what he knew would be a disaster. And it was. Others that follow a genius might find they are better off in doing so. I gave this a big thumbs down when it first came out and still do.
+15581,1,Waste of money,"Bob Oschack's so-called comedy just isn't that funny. Don't waste your money on this racist-themed comedian since he has to resort to crude humor that makes you cringe rather than laugh. His humor hinges on denigrating gays, ethnic and racial groups, religions, and just about any segment that is vulnerable. Isn't that what the Klan does?"
+15582,2,A gem,"Nikon quality at an exceptional price. Allowed me to take photos this past weekend from angles and distances that I could not have had the shot with a shorter lens. The lens is somewhat heavy, yet I was still able to handhold with minimal camera shake."
+15583,1,Almost unlistenable,"I have them all and love them all, but this one is almost unlistenable. An experiment that failed. Buy it for the cover art, only."
+15584,1,does not work with 1 GB card,"works fine on 128K card, does not work with a 1 GB card. There are no driver updates available."
+15585,1,Wow that game is bad,"The only good part of Blitz 2K is that the graphics are good enough that I can get a better idea of those burly men's rippling muscles. Gives me shivers. Now that I think about it, maybe it wasn't such a bad game."
+15586,1,Steer clear,"I was highly disappointed with this movie. It was almost painful to watch, but seeing to it that I bought it ($9.99) and thinking it would be good after reading the back cover, I had to finish it. The only good thing about the movie was the location/scenery the shots were filmed. Other than that, the fights were so few and far in between that it made it so painful to just sit there and ""wait for something to happen"". With all the supposedly talented cast to their own style of martial arts involved, the film never showed their true talent. Also, what was with the fake blood splatter? Was this supposed to make the fight scenes interesting? It made it quite annoying!Save your money, even if it is just to rent it. Don't say I didn't warn you."
+15587,2,Dream Zone,The mask was exactly what was promised and it is very comfortable to wear! I may have to purchase another one after I use this for a few weeks !
+15588,1,There is the sound of a baby screaming in the background,"It was suggested that I turn up the volume very high to calm a very fussy baby, but in so doing I noticed the faint sound of a baby crying in the background of the cd. I noticed it on my baby's two favorite tracks, track 1 and track 9 (must be at very high volumes - listen close for it). Has anyone else noticed this? Both my wife and I were immediately appalled and that was the last time we will use this cd."
+15589,1,Badly Designed,"This is ONLY for those shrubs that are up high and you would normally need a latter for, not normal height shrubs. I agree with the other reviewer that they need to make it so you can take the pole off or that tge main handle can telescope. Trying to use this on a normal shrub at knee level is ridiculious. It is too heavy and bulky to swing around for normal hedges. I took this back and got the 22' 18V and I love it."
+15590,1,I really had high hopes :(,"After all the positive reviews I had such high hopes for this bag. We used it to go from Ohio to Florida and back on top of my mini van. We paid attention to how it was attached and the zipper placement. The bag came apart at the seam on top in the front under the pressure of the wind. We arrived and all our stuff was wet. There was a football size hole where the seam had just split. I'm glad our stuff didn't end up all over the road, Had it torn further that would have been a real possibility. I looked over the bag before we used it and didn't see and defects so I really am not sure why it failed but it did so user beware."
+15591,2,"Great product, great price",Powerful software with multiple functionalities. Easy to use and exceptionally accurate. Favorite options: ability to edit PDFs and convert scanned files into HTML. Software saves a lot of time and pays for itself over the course of a couple months. Very satisfied. Can't beat the power for the price. Great product!
+15592,1,WTH!!!,"Recieved the package in a good enough time but the issue was that disc 3 was missing & in it's place was Agent Cody Banks 3, which leads me to believe that it was done intentionally. Emailed the seller twice in hopes to just get the third disc sent out sent my hubby had no issue w/the other discs but seller never responded. Forced to file a claim to get my money back. Highly dissapointed w/the service & dissapointed hubby who of course really wants to watch disc 3 it was the most important disc to him & he doesn't have it. Buyer be ware I will never buy from this seller again."
+15593,1,too predictable,"I read this book awhile ago and a friend recently asked to borrow it from me. I gave it to her. I got through the first book barely and a couple chapters into the secound book I just gave up. This book was so predictable, and not in the ""wow I want this to happen"" way. The main characters were way overdone and not at all interesting. I just couldn't find anything I enjoyed about the book when it was done."
+15594,2,Imagine Dylan and a Young Van Morrison,"For over 20 years Ian Charles has done it the old fashined way, through touring the East Coast area all the way to his sold out Wishing Street tour with over 400 dates nationwide!This roots based artist has stayed true to the vision of alternitive Americana music with his heart and soul..A stunning live performer,smart enough to utilize modern music technology today..he brilliantly combines smart folk music with powerfull singing and a wow stage presence...similar to an early Van morrison..Be sure to catch his upcoming regional tour with his new band Little Victories !"
+15595,2,Common sense isn't always common,"I just ordered this book so I'm not giving a ""book review"" as much as I'm supporting an idea that should be as second nature as breathing -- and some don't do that the way they should. Water, is so important to our overall well being and I think those who are looking for ""medical"" or ""scientific"" proof of this is dense. I also agree that this over proliferation of drugs for whatever ails you, and drugs for ailments that haven't been invented yet [but, coming soon]is all about $$$ for drug companies. If you want proof, try going without water for say, a week, then see how you feel - that`d be your proof."
+15596,1,Decieved,"These are very poor quality flags! The pictures they use to represent them are in no way pictures of the actual flags. I was very disappointed in them and even more disappointed in the way i was treated when i tried to return them (still trying).The company was rude when they answered my e-mail, and the whole experience has left me questioning whether or not i will continue to do business on Amazon."
+15597,1,Mastered at the wrong speed,The songs are mastered way faster than the original records were. The girls sound like they had a dose of helium before recording.
+15598,1,"Don't bother, Get an iPod.","The iPod is better, more popular, and more compatible. Why go against the grain. Do the right thing and go Apple."
+15599,2,FAB! Only the full dvd could be better!,Keep up with the Iron Horsed Knights of SAMCRO. The full episodes sans commericals. Only the full dvds with extras could do it any better!
+15600,2,SOUNDS GREAT,These headphones sound really good. They are a good fit for my four year old. The earpiece is really soft and the volume control doesn't allow her to turn it up too too loud. I only gave it four stars because I would have liked to have seen thicker wires or coated wires. I could see these becoming damaged with shorts if used unsupervised.
+15601,1,Bait and Switch?,Endless Variety canceled the order with no explanation. I was counting on giving this as a present.
+15602,1,Practically perfect in every way,"An anime for girls with a stereo typical sweet innocent 2 dimensional heroine, who begins the series 100% perfect and ends the series with zero growth or evolution as a character."
+15603,2,Elvis-In the Beginning,"I have been an Elvis fan ever since he came onto the scene. He has always been my favorite singer. I have many dvd's of him in Las Vegas, or the Hawaii concert, and all of his movies, but I liked this dvd because it shows a lot of his early works that got him to where he was, a ""Super Star"". As a teenager, I liked his music but as he grew as an entertainer and got older I preferred his beautiful love songs. It was fun to see his earliest experiences, it really took me back. Thank you Amazon."
+15604,2,Nothing like Aebeleskiver's on new years morning,"I had an aunt with a long standing tradition of making Aebelskiver's on New Years morning. She would invite extended family over to enjoy the fun. We moved away and I wanted to continue the tradition, so I found this pan and gave it a try. The product shipped on time and was in good condition- already seasoned and ready for prime time. I found a recipe and started cooking. It was easy."
+15605,1,Too short,I was really excited when I got the item but it was shorter than the listed length. After three days of wearing it a got a bumb on the bottom. I believe it was because the jewelry was cheap.
+15606,2,A brief and understandable introduction to Hafez,The authors did an admirable job of introducing western readers to Hafez. Not only are their translations of the (too few) examples of Hafez's poetry readable and poetic -- they actually resonate with some of the feelings one gets from hearing them in the original. I hope to see more.
+15607,1,purchased two orders praying manyis,I purchased two units neither unit manifested it self into praying mantis for my granddaughters. have previously purchased the butter fly science project and they all hatched wonderfully.i would not recommend this product
+15608,1,Same as other problems...,"I just recieved the printer from my boss at work, was sitting outside his office for about a month.... just today took it home and tried to fix it to no avail. It IS a piece of [...], the cartridge was stuck on the right, the back was broken off, and the lights are blinking nonstop.Went to the HP support website and followed their instructions to unjam it with a screwdriver but pulled off the flex cable (came out easy) on accident. (and cant get it back on)Save your money for another brand (and dont buy 30 dollar handmedowns)"
+15609,2,Yes - Basic - But Thats What The General Population Still Needs,As a Fitness Pro and Lifestyle Consultant - it is clear the general population still lacks knowledge of the basics. While a good number of reviews state this book is not a good one because it only covers the basics - I disagree.The authors get massive amounts of media exposure - where the masses are found - and the basics are what this crowd needs to 'learn' about in order to finally 'get it' & start doing the right things.If you already know the basics and have mastered them - go look for something else - but if you are still trying to 'get started' this is a good place to start.Joey Atlas - Authorhttp://www.YourFitnessBook.com
+15610,1,Does not fit Masters.,Bought this for Andis Masters. It has a cheesy and annoying spring load deal and two wrongly distanced hooks that don't fit the Andis Masters.
+15611,2,"Interesting, worthy read spanning ages and concepts!","Shlain's book, The Alphabet Versus the Goddess, provides enlightenment, stimulates curiousity, and builds connections among and between many ages and concepts. Whether or not the reader agrees with Shlain's major premise, the book spans both depth and breadth of time and knowledge. I most appreciated the way Shlain looked at actions and attitudes of people and analyzed them in terms of right or left brain dominance."
+15612,2,"Use a lot of bandaids, nice big box","Finally you can buy bandaids in a box that doesn't have just a handful of the ones you actually use on a regular basis. These may not stick in the presence of water, but the fabric is comfy and they won't come off on their own as long as they're kept dry. I go through an unfortunate number of bandaids, and these are the ones I keep coming back to. Combined with some ichthammol to draw out infections and splinters, these are as much as I could ask for."
+15613,1,A waste of time,This is a very thin book that offers little practical information beside a short section on the kind of pastels that are available and what papers to use. The technical demonstration is limited to the work of one artist and there is not much progression in the exercises being provided. I do not recommend this book.
+15614,2,"After Sept. 11th, this is a must-read","Auerbach's brilliant and prescient book shows us how terrorists-including Osama bin Laden-have been financing their operations all these years: kidnapping innocent tourists and businessmen in a now too-famous part of world. Auerbach's writing is wonderful; the book reads like a thriller. Her reporting is the best of journalism, sensitive and informative. She gets behind the scenes of the private kidnap consultants and the U.S. government that, for complicated political reasons, failed to protect and save Americans in that troubled region. And her message is very important. Your safety is your own reponsibility. No one may be able to warn you more specifically about these terrorists' intent or come to your rescue if you fall into their hands. Auerbach was ahead of her time. But now we all know how right she is. Read the book for your own protection. The kidnap problem is ongoing--and getting worse."
+15615,2,Great show to watch,This is a great video of the series and the quality is excellent. If you like Sherlock Holmes I recommend this one.
+15616,1,Too many characters,The Book Club had too many characters and didn't stop to identify with all of them. I felt that the characters fell flat and I didn't learn to identify with any of them or really care about what happened to them. I was really hoping to enjoy this book.
+15617,1,very bad,"Pretty old and crappy. The internal part even doesn't be covered fully. Besides, it doesn't work and my desktop can not be expanded with two monitors."
+15618,2,Very Enjoyable,I have seen the movie and enjoyed itwholeheartdly. Although it strays a bitfrom history but otherwise a veryenjoyable movie. I highly reccomend notonly the movie but also the soundtrack.Harold Conner
+15619,2,"Good book,but I have just that book not cassettes","I need to have those cassettes as well, but I don't find any sense that I had to buy whole package 'cause it not possible to buy just cassettes. Is it really so?"
+15620,2,Excellent resource for tackling application essays for business school,"I have most of the books on essay writing / mba admissions for business school including the harvard essays, montauk, isiadinso and this book is by far the best for really understanding the structure of a great essay. It clearly breaks down the 8 most common types of essays doing a lot of the legwork for you. great resource, highly recommended."
+15621,2,SO SOFT,These are so soft and what a GREAT PRICE for 2 king size 1200 thread count pillow cases... now I want the sheets!!
+15622,2,in Semi-truck,Works fine in my semi. has issues with rough roads and it shakes a little but with the no windshield mounting in the states I go thru it'll do.
+15623,1,Geri Halliwell,"the only thing worth listening to on the cd is the great dance track ""its raining men"". everything else is pitiful, horrible. the production is garbage, it sounds like geri is trapped in an Austin Powers movie with NO WAY OUT. her first cd was much better. better to buy the single than waste your money."
+15624,2,excellent reading,"The lady who's reading this is super-competent and reads well, imitating voices and varying her pace.Her default voice, if you will, has a bit of a strong northern accent for my taste, though.It is the original text, but it is abridged.The five stars are for the reading; the novel itself I'd give only three."
+15625,2,The BEST Investment ever!,"These highchairs are by far the best available. I just had my third child, let me tell you, I wish they made these when my first 2 were born! Easy to clean, VERY safe and sturdy!! Adjustments are wonderful. If anyone complains about these highchairs, they are crazy. I just bought 2 more for my cousins who are expecting. WORTH THE MONEY, How could you put a price tag on your childs safety and being able to keep the chair clean within seconds. I wipe my chair down with wet wipes, I personally have the white leatherette chair. EXCELLENT!! I would recommend everyone to at least look at these chairs and try them. I am very picky about where my children's tooshies sit,but I have to recommended this for everyone."
+15626,1,I wrote a poem on this band,"Simple PlanYou say your punkThat is bull $h!tYou sang ""I Don't Want To Think About You""Those Lyrics Connected To Me Cause That Is How I Feel About YouAll Who ANswer No To If This Review Is HelpfulCan Lick My....HandIf You Like ThemThen You Go To School Wearing Abercrombie and Spend Hundreds of Dollars Say Your Punk and The Only Ones That Agree With You Are Your Immature Poser FriendsSnoogans!Love,The JonesIf you agree your kick@$$!"
+15627,2,Great!,"This is a fantastic movie, and there's not much more I can say about it! DVD is great quality, and for $5.00, you can't get much better than this."
+15628,1,This is not Jazz,"I am disappointed. Coming from Blue Note, I expected a jazz album, but this strikes me as ""soft country."" Norah's voice is too slow and mellow, with no real distinctive character - there is nothing here that would make you want to just sit down and listen to this music."
+15629,1,A disappointment,"I agreed totally with the review in the New York Times Book Review, which I didn't read until after I had read the book--my mistake. It was a terrible disappointment from the creator of Easy and Socrates. Save your money."
+15630,1,"Great buildup, great letdown.","Iggie's House begins as a pleasant read with an easily-accessible character and believably enjoyable high-jinks as Winnie grapples with the racism she didn't realize existed in her town, in her parents, and in herself. A moral could be smoothly inserted without even seeming terribly pedantic. However, the final few chapters, suffer a tremendous breakdown.Blume chooses to treat the reader as an untrusting parent would treat an irresponsible child by not explaining any meaningful rationale behind the various parties' decisions regarding moving away. Moreover, the physical telling of the conclusion involves surprisingly messy narration and unfocused dialogue. The nice setup is unfortunately wasted."
+15631,1,If you are a beginner...Do not buy it,I read this book and really did not like it. It is a nightmare for any one new to compilers. It is difficult to read with more emphesis on the backend of the compiler.The following texts are much better for a beginner:1. Louden's Compiler construction --> the best text for a beginner.2. the Dragon book
+15632,1,Too little burn time. Package was all bent up and leaking.,"The product arrived bent up, with fuel leaking from 2 of the tins. They were unusable and I was only able to use one of the tins. It has very little burn time."
+15633,2,"Outstanding read, plain and simple and to the point.","I'm not even done reading this book, and I love how it really takes to the basic ideology of Buddhism. Sometimes with all there is out there to read and experiance, you get lost in the details. This book is helping me get back to what's it all about. Highly recommend this to beginners as well as to ones who have been doing this for quite a while."
+15634,2,Enjoyed every page!,"Buy this book NOW--because if you don't, you'll forget about it and miss out on one of the great humorists of our time. After you read this book, you'll want to call up Sheri and ask her to be best friends. She's likeable and funny in a not-obvious-humor sort of way. She's got true wit, and she dishes it out chapter after chapter. Each of us has a laugh-out-loud synapse in our brains, and Sheri hits it again and again. But most importantly, when I turned the last page, I felt I had become a little more laid back. Sheri makes you realize that the things we think are super-important really aren't as super-important as we think they are."
+15635,1,What a whiner!!!!,"Marina hasn't much understanding about truly tragic childhoods...let's see, private schools, living in the south of France, wow, such misery! Her grandfather didn't owe her a damn thing, and why didn't her mom and dad work? If I were Pablo, I'd crawl out of my grave and take my money back."
+15636,1,Cheap feel. Terrible buttons.,"While the Harmony 880 looks elegant, in the hand it feels like a cheap 99 cent toy as soon as you start pressing buttons. The silver buttons on the perimeter are the worst. They are tiny, with sharp edges, and difficult to discern without looking. The UP-CHANNEL button stopped working after 1 year. After much disgust, threw it out and replaced with Harmony One which has much better button layout and feel.I give it 2 stars only for ability to manage many devices, allowing to start any activity with one click.Replacing the remote was easy. All existing functionality transferred to the new remote in a few minutes via USB and a PC."
+15637,2,Yolandita returns with her best album,"It was worth waiting. Yolandita debuted at #1 on Billboard pop album charts. The album is simply the best. You can listen to all 10 songs without skipping one. Felicidades, Yolandita!"
+15638,1,I cant believe this guy is published,"between his random babble, run-on sentances that lead nowhere, out of the blue paragraph openings and subject and not to mention his ""theory"" on the American Bulldog I wouldnt waste anymore time (let alone money) on this book. I mean come on, this guy spelled ""organized"" with an ""s"" for crying out loud. this book is an insult not only to the editors and publishers who helped put it out, but to the true American Bulldog lovers worldwide. I promise you that if you are looking for a good book on these dogs there are some out there - it's just not this one. after reading this i feel like i should write a book on space exploration - apparently you dont even need to know the subject on which you are writing about."
+15639,1,Made in China - NOT worth the risk,"While these seems tasty and have a good texture, they are made in China. Despite what the manufacturer or anyone else says, while I might let my child play with a toy or wear clothes made in China, I would not let my child ingest any food made in China. My colleagues at work have visited with manufacturers of all types of products in China (including food) and based on what I have heard from their first hand accounts as well as the known incidents such as melamine milk, I would not let my baby put food made in China is his mouth. Sorry, not worth the risk in my opinion."

The capacity/charge time seems to be very inconsistant between the same exact battery. Something to watch out for."

+15643,1,Very unhappy with product,"I bought this product for my mom who is 87 years to use for a Christmas present, so far 4 months later it has not run even one time they said they would send a new battery and tried to sell mo a different one for 20.00 I told them the one they send with it should work at least a few time, and as of now I am not sure we will ever get one and it is to later to send back to amazon, I know if you can get them to work they are not bad It is the company that is so slow, it take months to get stuff from them to get the Vac to work, Please do beware of this...."
+15644,1,Worst Shave Possible,"I do not like the double edge safety razor, even the cheap throw aways give you a bbs shave. Better to buy a different item."
+15645,1,Am I Missing Something?,"Apparently I'm not the only one who was annoyed and irritated by this book. The style was distracting, the plot minimal to nonexistent, and the hype overblown. My suggestion to whoever edited this would have been to move the last hundred pages to the front, lose the first hundred pages altogther, edit down the middle hundred down to about ten and call the whole thing a very long short story."
+15646,2,love it!,it is cute and comfy! the size is just right.my girlfriend loves it very much.no weird smell or whatsoever.
+15647,1,Missing parts,This item was purchased as a gift. After it was assembled it was discovered that parts were missing. The biggest missing part is the bottom of the drawer leaving the drawer unusable. Amazon was contacted for a solution. Hopefully it will be one that is agreeable to all parties.
+15648,1,Not a Null Modem Adapter,"Despite being sold, and labeled as, a null modem adapter, pins 2 and 3 are straight through. Unfortunately I wasted 45 minutes troubleshooting software and serial port settings before breaking out the multi-meter to verify pin wiring on this adapter.Look elsewhere (unless you need a simple DB-9 gender changer)."
+15649,1,Not as durable as the original,I had the original teaser end for my Da Bird toy for at least 3 or 4 months before it kicked the bucket. It was used daily for rigorous play session and it was quite durable. Thick and stiff feathers stood up to my very rough and tumble cat who flips 2-3ft off the ground to catch the toy.I got this in the mail and within 3 uses the first feather teaser was completely destroyed. The feathers were very light weight and flexible and my cat really just ripped them to shreds and broke them in half. This is our absolute favorite interactive kitty toy and i'm sad these died so quickly.I'm quite disappointed in the quality of these. DEFINITELY not worth the price for 3 uses for each teaser end.
+15650,1,Not the pictured item.,The picture shows a brass fitting that is threaded into the body. The one I recived did not thread in. It was built into the body. Cant be removed and not what I wanted.
+15651,2,excellent,"Jeff Shaara does something most history teachers can't do-He makes history readable and engrossing. He does an excellent job of letting the events drive the narrative, while capturing the reader with the picture of the characters. As I read I could see the transformation of both John and Samuel Adams-in many ways reversing roles. In fact it was nice to see the heroes of the revolution treated as people on a journey to become revolutinaries. Finally, I think his greatest contribution to m y understanding was helping me see that neither side really understood the other and seeing the arrogance of empire (perhaps a lesson some of our current politicians could learn)Excellent"
+15652,1,Not at ALL what I was expecting!!!,"I ordered this set because I LOVED Tom Green in ""Freddy Got Fingered"". I remembered he had a show on MTV some number of years ago, but couldn't really remember it so I figured this DVD set would be packed full of laughs for hours on end. I was SOOOOOO wrong!I got through about 8 episodes and had barely cracked a smile. There is no real basis to his comedy expect him standing in a public place yelling, making obscene noises, or rolling around on the ground. (I think someone else wrote almost the exact same thing on a previous review)."
+15653,1,Interesting Piece of Software,This program is very difficult to control and doesn't have very good quality graphics and stuff. I think anybody looking to buy this piece of software should maybe consider something else.
+15654,1,Skip It,"Worst Christmas album I've ever heard, bar one. The vocals are atrocious and the production is cheap and rushed. Jessica, do us a favor and just give it up. Nobody likes your singing or your ridiculous facial spasms."
+15655,1,At least it has spurred a search for the real truth,"The author would like to take the tragedy of Jedwabne and construct around it a tale of Polish anti-Semitism and cruelty. But any serious reader of this book owes it to the memory of the victims, that the story of their suffering is not used to distort history, for whatever motives. What happened at Jedwabne? There are differing views. Unfortunately, the author does not give serious credence to any viewpoint except his own. The intellectually lazy approach to historical research employed here would not pass muster at any university. The only good that could come of this work is that it has at least opened a debate, and intensified a search for the real truth, among more serious scholars. Whether the massacre at Jedwabne was in reality perpetrated by the Poles or the Germans, we may someday find out... But not as any direct result of this author's seriously flawed sensationalist effort."
+15656,2,You'll never want another tooth brush again!,I have LOVED this toothbrush. I even bought the kids their own. No messy tooth paste in the sink and on the counter. This product was highly recommended by my dentist. Once you try it you won't be satisfied with the own fashioned toothbrush
+15657,2,Solid tank,"Hey, it's a propane tank ... I exchange it when it's empty for some other tank that's full -- no one ever sees it."
+15658,2,Good stuff,"When I listened to it, it made me miss Dream Street even more. I wish they had still stayed together and then the CD would have been all Dream Street songs! But regardless, it's a good CD! The new stuff is really good, but it was kind of weird putting ""You're Taking Me Over"" next to ""With All My Heart"" because their voices were still high in YTMO, but had dropped by WAMH. I also enjoyed hearing some of the redone old songs! If you like Dream Street, go out and buy this CD! Why are you still reading this? I said go out and buy it!"
+15659,2,Another good read,"This is another great book by Rob Kaufman. Twists and turns, love and deception make it a book you won't want to put down."
+15660,1,Advice: Don't Buy It!,"I'm in the middle of the second episode and the part with the opening music gone has just ruined the whole mood of the set. I had heard that it was missing, but I said, 'so what'? Well it turned out to be a major ,'so what'.I don't even feel like I'm watching the Bundy's. This is worse than some bootleg. I wish I hadn't bought it, even for only $13.49. Now, I've got to deal with season four, that I ordered, and it's on it's way, ikk!"
+15661,2,Xanth you'll like it to!,The Xanth trilogy is a fictional book about magical powers and love. The stories intertwine with one another they have the ability to pull you in and make you believe that you are actually in the book as one of the characters. He has the ability to describe the scenery with out using a lot of words. Many time's I have caught my self reading four to five chapters with out realizing it. I read the Xanth trilogy in two weeks and I found that it just wasn't enough for me I ran out and bought Centaur aisle and the first book from Apprentice adept. I've read both and found that they are both fairly good books. The Xanth Trilogy is great for young adults and teenagers alike. The Xanth Trilogy is a fairly well written book and should be read by all at least if you enjoy magic.
+15662,1,Don't buy this - it comes with one!,"Don't waste you money on this. I bought one by mistake, and the process to return it seemed so onerous that I just ate the unnecessary cost. If you are buying a Garmin GPS, it comes with an identical case IN THE BOX ALREADY."
+15663,2,brilliant! - a mirror of the publics hypocrisy,"with sex, madonna has done exactly what she inteded to do; show the world the hypocrisy that it thrives on. she knew how the public would react to her book and its accompanying album. the whole purpose was to hold up a part of every person to themselves and point out their reaction. unfortunately its one of those points that murders itself...if everyone understood the hypocrisy of their criticism and understood what she was doing, her point wouldnt have been true in the first place. but it is, and she wins. this important piece of art is absolutely brilliant, to say nothing about beautiful, entertaining and sexy."
+15664,2,Richard is the Best. This isn't his best.,"I use this and Sweatin' to the Oldies III. I love the music and dancing, however it is hard to follow this video because the camera isn't always on Richard at the beginning of a dance or when he changes steps. Head shots don't help with foot work. STTO III is more professional in this regard. At first I thought that this didn't provide as good a workout as STTO III, but my heart rate and sweat prove otherwise. I believe it is because these dances use your arms more. Richard is great for those of us who don't have perfect bodies and probably never will. Even though I am toned and losing weight, I will never look like Denise Austin or Kathy Ireland. I've just ordered the original STTO and will let you know what I think."
+15665,1,Do not waste your money!,"This movie was absolutely horrible! Even for a kids movie, it was unbearable. My children could't wait to see it since we missed it in the theatres. We didn't even finish it. They thought it was stupid, thank god because I couldn't take it anymore. Glad it only cost me a few bucks from home, I would have walked out of the theatre otherwise and been out a lot more money."
+15666,2,What a difference!!,"My first horse I acquired when he just turned 3 and now he is 18. Perfect first horse, no vices, eager to learn and please, simply a perfect gentleman. I purchased another horse when we moved to our dream home out in the country. Needless to say, she came with some vices, and I needed something to refer to. I bought the book one evening, and the next morning, out I went to try Clinton Anderson's techniques. I saw immediate results and a change in her that stuck. The book is an easy read and I love that he featured both an English and Western rider. Eventhough Clinton rides Western, I myself dressage, the book still made a lot of sense to me. Because this book helped so much I have a totally different relationship with my new horse. THANK you Clinton!!!!"
+15667,1,some good info some horribly wrong,"His optimal designs using mirror image circuitry are non-functional circuits although he presents performance curves and describes test results. These designs are equivalent to using two op amps in parallel with the respective inputs and outputs connected together. Due to miniscule differences in Vbe and Beta of the transistors, the quiescent current in the voltage amplification stage will be either saturated or cut off. There is nothing in these circuits to control this quiescent current."
+15668,2,Could watch it every day!,"What an awesome flick, this is a movie you can watch over and over. I am just wondering who the character is on the cover of the DVD with his hand on his forehead?"
+15669,1,Wrong Adapter,"We bought also the keybord and the adapter (as recommended) and it does not fit. I already tried to buy a new one, but it is not available."
+15670,2,Beautiful pictures and a perfect book for any man cave,I must say I'm not cars person but I was drawn in by the pictures and was intrigued once I started reading it. I found myself reading my own coffee table book. I enjoyed the pictures very much and learned a lot that I didn't know before.
+15671,1,Not worth the money ... sorry,"I have used this product for over a year now, and can honestly say that it's not worth the money.Transcoding video is faster (tried MacBook Pro and Mac Pro) and more flexible (more options in settings and such) when doing it without the Elgato Turbo ...This might be a product useful for G3 owners?"
+15672,2,Love Bella Andre,"I must say that I am a new fan of Bella Andre. I love to read and find that I read faster than ""my authors"" publish. (lol) Often times, I find myself browsing my kindle looking for something new. When I came across Bella Andre, I instantly fell in love with her work. She is a must read author that has been added to my list of authors. Hope you enjoy!"
+15673,1,disappointed,We dined in the restaurant and enjoyed the food; I found it to be comparable with restaurants in Mexico. I ordered the book and was totally disappointed. The dishes I enjoyed in the restaurant are not in the book! It is a generic cookbook about tex-mex food obviously written to capitalize on their fame. They don't even have the recipe for the chimichurri sauce that is on every table.
+15674,1,Answer to your Question,"The answer to your question is, "" Wild as the west TEXAS wind"". Glad to be of some help.Jeremy"
+15675,2,"Not just a house, it's a home","A very fun story. There are a lot of memories here that are shared and there's even a little bit of information that some of the family members try not to share. What a unique story.....moving a house because of a last request from a father who has passed away. Truely a fun, quick, unique read. Read this book, it's intriguing as well as fun and will give you a lift."
+15676,2,Stir Fry pan,very happy with this Stir-Fry pan. Make great tasting meals and is very easy to clean up. Like the see thru lid. It came quickly to. Couldn't be happier. Thank you for a great product.
+15677,1,Junk,"This is a low grade, made in China, sheet metal, flimsy piece of junk. If you want a one-use and throw it away grill for the beach or lake, this might be it. Otherwise, get the cast iron Hibachi."
+15678,1,O.K. Workout DVD,"I gave it 2 stars b/c it wasn't what I expected. I was expecting real Reggaeton music, Boricuas or Latinos doin tha dance workout, and real Reggaeton dancing, a.k.a. EL PERREO. The video is real corni especially the backup dancers but it is a workout dvd that got me out of breath by tha end of it. I'm a slow learner & begginer at these dance video workouts, so it took me 3 times to be able to learn the moves without messing up so much."
+15679,1,Needs a better Display,"I like the features, and look of this alarm clock. The one BIG thing i do not like about it is the Display. You cannot see it unless it is right in front of you. I tried to put it on a shelf 1' above my bed, and the display was no longer visible at that angle. The backlight is also pretty bright, but not a problem if you like a nightlite in your room."
+15680,2,Super Splitter,I struggled splitting pills with a sharp knife. No more! This little gizmo does a perfect job every time.
+15681,1,I can't really review this product because I still don't have it,"I ordered this Syracuse sweatshirt as a holiday present back on December 4. However, it still has not arrived! Somehow it was lost during shipping and now it is on backorder. I just hope that weather stays cold so that the person I am giving the sweatshirt to will actually get to use it this year. I am disappointed in this company and will never order from them again."
+15682,2,For Serious Apollo Aficionados...,"This is a great set of DVD's for those who would enjoy watching raw footage from the Apollo 11 mission. There are some long slow sections with little commentary, but these are frequently followed by intense moments during the launch, lunar landing and takeoff, and reentry. The scenes shot on the Moon really make you feel as though it's happening now, and while they run pretty long, the effect, if you stick it out, is almost surreal. It's as though you are right there with Armstrong and Aldrin, sharing in all the little, unnerving glitches that demonstrate that this was indeed a stunning human endeavor.I recommend this to anyone who appreciates the magnitude of this achievement and would like to relive it."
+15683,2,Fun to read.,Just received my copy yesterday and this book is FUN TO READ! Working at creating my first dinner this week. Thanks GreenCross Of Seattle! See you at next years HempFest 2006! Life is better with books like this. I enjoy your sites links too!
+15684,1,Junk,"Mine was dead out of the box. Hey America, you get what you pay for - there is no free lunch. On its' way back, needless to say."
+15685,1,"OK, but not in the class of Iron Maiden's best releases","Whatever happened to IM after Seventh Son ? This one's better than Fear of the Dark ... but, that's not saying a lot!!IMHO, after their golden era (the debut album through Seventh Son) they seem to have become just another metal band."
+15686,1,"Coulter At It Again--Same Ol, Same Ol","This is a collection of Coulter's columns from ""Human Events"" and her syndicated column for Universal Press Syndicate. This series of essays provides you with a lot more breadth but not as much depth as the typical book topic.Ann Coulter is at her best or worst, depending upon your perspective, once again leveling liberals with a rather cranked vocabulary, to say the least. Her writing (and I assume speaking) style leaves me cold--I think rants weaken arguments not strengthen them--but her points of view are worth considering and from time to time she gets off a one-liner that is downright funny.Would I recommend this book--as opposed to others worthy of your time and money? Nah. Would I go across the street to hear Coulter speak? Nah."
+15687,1,Not worth the reading.,The auther seems to think it more important to be witty and wordy then to try to convey information. The book was painful to read.
+15688,2,O Brother.... - Live!,"This is a cd of live performances by artists that appeared on the soundtrack for O Brother Where Art Thou?, which was widely successful. This is a must have, with live performances by Emmylou Harris, Alison Krauss, Union Station, Gillian Welch, The Cox Family and more. This is another fine addition to your bluegrass collection, and I have to say its nice to see it coming to the forefront, it is truly beautiful music for the ears. If you liked O Brother Where Art Thou? then you will most likely want this if you don't already have it in your collection."
+15689,1,Taekwondo Terminology by Sang H Kim,"I will not recommend this product to anyone, not vlaue for money. The English is hard to understand and I cannot click the words individually to hear the sound. If you are looking to buy a CD and learn the Korean for your Taekwond-do grading, it's a disappointment, because there are no enough terminology to learn and some of the important terminology are not included."
+15690,1,Vague,"Here's the straight dope on this, despite all the raving. Although this claims to be a breakthrough technique that constitutes more than just meditation, it really is nothing more than an attempted resynthesis of the age old vipassna meditation. This synthesis is hopelessly vague, poorly articulated, and overly verbose without being adequqtely descriptive. I gave it two weeks and found it unexecutable.Even mystical Buddhism is more logical by comparison. If you're the touchy feely type who is satisfied with no more than simple suggestion, then it might be woth the seven bucks, threfore, 2 stars."
+15691,2,A view at a world most of us don't see.,"Although the writing is not the most polished this book has a lot of information that will be new to the neophyte espionage readers and even manages to sneak in a few things that are very good for every day life that most of us either don't know or ignore. It is written from a very personal point of view, as if the author was just sitting in your living room and was an acquaintance. The problem I find with that is that most people, including myself, will take anything someone we don't really know with a grain of salt and this takes away from the book; there's a point in the book where you begin to doubt the veracity of it. Most of the non-espionage claims can be authenticated easily enough but there's a lingering doubt as to the participation of the author in these events the way he described it. The book is worth reading."
+15692,2,Outstanding!!,"This book was an adventure all the way through. Every time that I picked it up, I found myself captured for hours as I devoured this fascinating book. Tarnoff does a magnificent job of transporting the reader with him to experience wondrous adventures in Europe, Africa, and Asia. I loved his picturesque descriptions as well as the poetic style of writing that emerges when he is describing certain experiences. Read this book and be prepared for a journey that will often make you laugh, sometimes make you cry, but in the end will leave you feeling good and triumphant."
+15693,2,"Great Book, Must read!","Ramon found the fabulous Pearl of Heaven, but all it earned him was powerful enemies: one human, the other the notorious monster devilfish, The Manta Diablo, which guarded those waters. The story elements, rythmic writing, and the gravity of tone induce comparison to classic myth."
+15694,2,The only one out there,The only blue tooth for cell phone that can also play music. Great sound. Less complaints during phone conversations then with many other bluetooths. The drawbacks: 1) hypersensitive to movement - often skips tracks unless stabilized for walking/rollerblading 2) Will freeze phone if turned off during conversations. The only way to avoid it is by turning the bluetooth off by using a phone menu. Still beats my motorola H710 anyday
+15695,1,Didn't work and can't get money back,"I bought this after reading some reviews and liking the price. But it was a waste of money and didn't make any positive difference for my daughter. It actually dried out her face and almost ""burned"" it. She has switched to ProActive and loves it. I was optimistic it would work, but am disappointed. I wish I could return it and get a refund, but Amazon says no."
+15696,2,If Terry Gilliam made an album...,"this would be it. It's a bizarre(duh), surreal, and constantly changing set of songs(yes they are songs, they DO have structures, even if they're abnormal structures) that will either blow your mind or annoy the hell out of you. For me, it's a little of both. Sometimes I can put on this cd and love it. But im not ALWAYS in the mood to listen to and odd little number like ""Chemical Marriage"", or the noise-fests that are ""Everyone I Know From High School Is Dead"" and the latter half of ""Merry Go Bye Bye"". Still though, this can be a pretty impressive album, and any Bungle fan who doesn't yet own it definitely should."
+15697,2,Fun songs for kids and parents,"My two and a half year old daughter really enjoys this cd. We play it in the car on road trips and she loves to sing along. Some of the songs are sung in rounds, so she's learning how to do that. Her favorites on this cd are the title song, I'm Having a Backwards Day, The ABC Song, Gimmel Gimmel Shin, and Pick a Bale of Cotton. It's fun singing for the parents, too!"
+15698,2,HIM so good to be true,"I read the reviws and I see that most of you liked 'Join me in death'(HIM)! I have to say that I only bought this CD because of it, it's my favorite group. If you liked the song, you should buy a CD from them. They are not popular in America (you are reading a mexican's fan review), that's bad, they have greater potencial than some really popular bands (Did you know that The Rasmus used to sing their songs?!?)The Soundtrack is very good, I wasn't expecting this."
+15699,2,Perfect fit,Worked exactly as desribed. Fit perfect with absolutely no problems. Made installation a breeze! 2007 Ford F150 FX2 Sport. Delivery was longer than expected.
+15700,1,Over stretched,"I've only read the first two of this series and won't bother to finish it. Ms. McCaffrey seems to have fallen pray to the modern SiFi writer's disease of padding the verbiage to get as many books as possible from an idea even if it ruins them.I think this ""series"" would have made one good book."
+15701,1,Not worth the price,We bought ours a couple of years ago and it works well enough although if you toast two bagels one after another the first one will come out underdone the second one burnt. We junked it the other day as the support arm for the bagel was so flimsy it buckled under the weight of the bagel and was at risk of contacting the heater coil creating a short.
+15702,1,"No patterns, Limited sizes, Frumpy clothes","At I review this, the book is 10 years old, and fashion has moved along, this is no fault of the author. And if you were looking to sew a dress with a chunky cowl neckline, or slim pull on pants, or a raglan-sleeved dress you have your book. Sadly, the clothes as photographed scream HOMEMADE rather than fitted and well-tailored. I give her credit for showing different sized gals as models but the clothes are not flattering on them all, they often look like the clothes are wearing them. As mentioned, there are no patterns with the book, and the size range is limited to S - M - L, with no intent to cover bust > 43""; waist > 36"", or hips > 46"". Her sewing tips are good, but are available in her other books."
+15703,2,Cool Album,I really like this album. Jani Lane is a great songwriter. I Saw Red & Blind Faith are great songs. I miss rock music that SOUNDS good...enough of this rap rock slop!
+15704,1,It hurts my ears.,I like the sound from it but it hurts my ears. It is bulky too. I would buy something else.
+15705,2,It was a good book and a short book too,It was a good book I finished it in 3 days it was very very very short and I loved the movie
+15706,2,"Good product, just beware some problems with the installation","Overall, I've been happy with the product. But, due to an initial problem with installation I'm only willing to give it 4 stars out of five.The problem:When I first hooked it up I discovered my motherboard only had one IDE port so I tried to get the DVD drive to share the port with the hard drive. The first time I booted the system up, the DVD drive ended up crashing my hard drive. In order to get the DVD drive to work properly I had to buy a new motherboard so I could give the DVD drive it's own IDE port, away from the master hard drive.Now that it has it's own port the drive works just fine and I'm really enjoying it."
+15707,1,Don't Bother,"His first book, Edges of the earth was amazing. So I thought this book would be a terrific sequal. Was I wrong. He complains and whines throughout the entire book. The story goes nowhere. A far cry from his first novel. Don't waste your time with this book if you are interested in life in Alaska, read his first book if you can get your hands on it (I know it is out of print). It is full of passion and drama."
+15708,1,Agreed... Waste of Money!,"Oh how I wish I had read the other reviews before wasting money on this toy! I figured since it was Baby Einstein, it would have some educational value and be exciting for my child. NOT! Just read the other reviews and sign me up for the bandwagon. The only thing it could be considered useful for is a big,loud, annoying teething toy, as my daughter likes to chew on the turtle's snorkel."
+15709,2,Great Product,"Like the review below, not too small and not too big. Just perfect. I just received it 2 days ago. I haven't even used it yet but I know I will like it. I bought it for an upcoming trip to carry around a digital camera and some souvenirs while shopping. And the wife says a couple of diapers and some wipes. Shipping was prompt too. Would not hesitate recommending it."
+15710,2,"Quick, painless cooking!","I highly recommend this cookbook for those who want simple, cheap, vegetarian meals for one or two people. I am not a student but mostly cook for myself or one other person, and this book has been quite useful to me. I particularly like the section of dips and spreads."
+15711,1,Did nothing to my lab,"We have super hyper lab, and the pills did nothing to him but making him thirsty. I'm sure it works well for other dogs, but we were not lucky."
+15712,1,Not what I thought,"My 3 year old daughter loves Tigger so when I saw this I thought it would br GREAT. Boy was I wrong. I thought Tigger would be bouncing all the time and if he bounces once a game it is a lot. If ""boing"" sound he makes is suppossed to go with the bouncing it doesn't. I am totally disappointed in this game and would say if you have money to spend on it spend it someplace else. Totally thumbs down on this item.Not at all worth it or what I expected."
+15713,1,Why did I try Proctor-Silex again??,"After me first coffeemaker began leaking- and it was a realtively new proctor-silex 12 cup maker- I decided to try one of these ""cute"" single serve ones. Why, oh why did I purchase this brand?? First, it does take around 3-4 minutes to brew a single cup of coffee or tea. This seems like a longer time than most. And now, after 2 or 3 frustrating weeks, it's leaking just like the old one did. Not user error, as the water comes from underneath the coffeemaker. Also, the coffee is not coming out as hot either, which causes me to wonder if it's the heating element... Even though this one can use loose grounds or pods, it is not worth the frustration! Try a different brand. My sister-in-law has really enjoyed her Sensao!"
+15714,2,great,I seen this Movie when it first came out and its one of the few movies I dont mind watching again.
+15715,1,WHAT A DISAPPOINTMENT!!!!! COULDN'T EVEN FINISH IT,"I have read most of DK's other books and enjoyed them all, but this one is something eles again. After thinking myself extremely lucky to score this book from the local library, I couldn't wait to get it home and start reading. Unfortnuately it was so boring I could only read about 70 pages and am so disgusted with the lengthy drawn out descriptions, written in some new age style that I could not bring myself to finish this book. And once Bobby and Sasha come on the scene it only went from bad to worse, with their unbelievable dialogue and inane conversations in the middle of supposed suspense. I hope Dean gets back to his former style of writing that makes for enjoyable reading and not the torture this book was!"
+15716,2,Good choice,"The book was suggested by my MIL who is a huge dog person. I think it did a great job of giving specific details with photos, which was nice. I feel like it was a helpful to remind me of all that is required to have a dog. I'm going to have all the family read it so we all know what is expected of us before we proceed with getting a dog. One thing I wished it talked about was incorporating a dog into a house with other animals. It didn't mention it at all. Overall, it was easy read, clear and to the point and will be easy to reference once we move forward and get a dog."
+15717,1,worst doodle pad ever,"My 18-month old daughter received this as a Christmas present, and we are so disappointed with it. The doodles self-erase almost instantaneously. Not much fun at all to play with. I would not recommend this toy to anyone, and wish my mother-in-law would have saved her money, or bought a different brand."
+15718,1,Wonderful pictures but flawed directions,"If you expect to be able to make the exquisite designs show in Diamond's photos, you better be good at figuring things out for yourself. The directions prove to be inaccurate and sometimes the photo and instructions don't even match!"
+15719,1,"Condescending to parents, almost hostile to children","The tone of this book is surprisingly obnoxious. In order to get his point across, the author repeatedly engages in ""straw man"" attacks against parents he has met during speaking engagements. Essentially, all parents are painfully clueless and the only parenting approach that works for any and all children is - yes, of course, the author's."
+15720,2,My husband loved this gift.,I bought this knife for my husband as a gift. Came nicely boxed. He was very happy with it.
+15721,1,This movie did not age well.,"When this film came out people praised it for capturing the ethos of the 70s. Looking at it now, the film is painfully slow and unengaging, and the production looks gritty and cheap. You may get a chuckle out of some of the costumes and the hair styles, but you could get those from other 70s era films as well, e.g. Nashville. Rent this one if you must, but don't waste your money on it."
+15722,1,About average,There are MUCH better books in this category. This one just doesn't do the topic justice.
+15723,1,overmike,"The balance between singers and orchestra is not true. In an operatic stage, the singers should be almost drown out by the gigantic orchestra. That makes it so much more exciting.Other than that, the singers are great.But I think the conducting is overkill, and the sound not natural sounding."
+15724,2,suppose to be reviewing the blu-ray not the movies,"The people writing bad reviews are doing it for the wrong reason, this is to be reviews on the quality of blu-ray not the crappyness of the movies, I'm buying this set in November along with star trek for my husbands birthday along with a blu-ray burner to add better quality to the network files , talk about that not your opinions of the movie there is another place for that!"
+15725,1,Garbage,"This band really lost their edge w/this release. Voracious Contempt and the masterpiece The Extinction of Benevolence put this to shame. The guitar sound is pathetic and the vocals, while not bad, cannot touch Rini's brutal and hateful vox from the first 2 cd's. They should really give it up now, because they are an embarassment to the death metal scene."
+15726,1,not my cup of tea,"This book was recommended in a book review column i always read and usually agree with. However the stories are very disturbing, strange, gross, sick and upsetting. I'm obviously not ready for this kind of book - i'm going back to Maeve Binchy.This was his first book - i wonder if he'll write another!!"
+15727,2,It's Triple the Reading Pleasure,"I read this book when it first came out some time back. It's one of the few books that I can't seem to be able to keep out of my mind. It's so unique in the plot and story line, that I put it up there with the Uplift Wars saga. An excellent book. Read it, if you can find it. Get it if you can."
+15728,1,Consultant-Buyer Beware!!,"This is not a technical reference by any means. My biggest complaint is the organization of the material...it is a hodge-podge of information, most of which is geared to the non-technical manager who may be trying to justify a purchase of PeopleSoft for integration purposes. Some chapters get more technical but are confusing, lack examples and useful diagrams. The whole book feels 'rushed', and the format is far from elegant. There are several grammatical errors and typos too. For fifty bucks, I'd spend my money elsewhere."
+15729,2,Monster Trucks (Pull-Ahead book),This book is a simple text with plenty of information for your young monster truck fan. It is also inexpensive. The only down-side is the out-dated pictures.
+15730,1,"Great story, *horrible* editing","This book picks up where the second one stopped, but refocuses on characters we haven't seen since the first book. The pasts of both the main characters and several of the races are revealed, and they are not disappointing.The reason for the low rating, and my main complaint about this book is the editing. Frankly, it is so bad I often have to re-read a paragraph several times to figure out what was being said because it lacks all punctuation, every third word is italicized, and random words are capitalized. I feel like I'm reading Facebook. If I didn't enjoying the story quite so much, I would not have been able to finish this book. Large portions of the book are almost unreadable."
+15731,1,Plastic handles break easily,I have tendinitis so my grip is not very strong but the plastic handles cracked after only a couple months of use. My Mr. Dudley (wooden) pepper mill still works great after years of use.
+15732,2,This Hand Blender is the Bomb,"This Hand Blender is very powerful, alot more than I had given it credit for. There's nothing I've found that it won't mix or blend. And when your done just put the attachment in the dishwasher and be done with it. Clean ups a dream."
+15733,1,Worse than useless,This product is a joke. I have to measure 15 or 20 times to get any reading other than weight and an error message (yes I read the instructions and am doing it correctly). Over those 15 or 20 attempts the weight measurement returned varies wildly. You are better off with a $6 old-school scale.
+15734,1,Read this book if you want to be terrified!!!,"After reading this book I almost changed my mind about having children! It mainly focuses on negativity and the author gives you the impression that almost any horror of pregnancy is an inevitability. There are definite pros and cons to having an epidural, but Vicky makes it seem like your only intelligent choice is to have one. I would not recommend this book for a first time mom learning about pregnancy. I did not find this book amusing, nor did my husband."
+15735,1,REBA IS NEARLY DROWNED OUT BY THE MUSIC,Reba says in the liner notes of this CD that she wanted this to be akin to a crisp mountain stream not an ocean. Well she got the ocean. The cover art is all beach stuff and the songs inside reflect that. Some of the songs aren't bad but they really aren't up to her standard. The pop oriented fans which are most of what Reba has these days will eat this up. Its obvious that she will never return to traditional country so I don't know why I continue to support her when she records middle of the road stuff like this. Her band played on here.....loudly I might add!!! Her voice is drowned out by the banging of the instruments done in a rock fashion that appeals to people and the background vocals...well....whatever happened to a thing called overdubbing and singing harmony with yourself?? More is not necessarily better!!
+15736,1,Uncomfortable and unfunny,"I am still amazed that this movie was such a big hit - it is one of the worst ""comedies"" I have ever tried to sit through. Unless you enjoy seeing someone ridiculed and treated rudely throughout the entire film, I don't recommend it. The whole movie feels uncomfortable and that feeling never leaves you. It's simply awful and should be an embarrassment for De Niro."
+15737,2,Best Shape for Me,"These 7-sided pill keepers (my family calls them ""pill wheels"" but you'll never find them that way on Google) are, in my experience, the best shape for this sort of thing. Round ones cannot be set up on their edge, and the ""stick"" style, with all the days in a horizontal row, don't tuck as discreetly into a purse or pocket.It's hard to find these in stores. This is a great price and I'll order several.Note: if you can't easily distinguish which are your morning pills and which are your evening, you'd best buy two of these and load them accordingly."
+15738,1,Couldn't get into it,I will admit I did not get very far in this book. I've tried many times to read it. I just can't get past how it jumped from Tucker as a small boy to suddenly his brother in a mental hospital. I know this book has had high reviews. I wish I could of gotten into it.
+15739,1,too many negatives,"I just got this toy for my six month old daughter and I cannot recommend it. Here is why:The batteries don't last at all (empty after ten days)It is way too heavy, my daughter can already pick it up and if she drops it on her head it will really hurt her.The lights and music come on by the slightest touch or vibration, she does not have to do anything to help her learn (like putting the balls in the middle) - just me walking by will make it come on."
+15740,1,A Greeting Card Program that is not user friendly,"I bought The Greeting Card Factory Deluxe version about a month ago with an instruction booklet included. However even with the booklet by my side, I had difficulty setting up the correct printing options for envelopes you can create. Even though on screen help was very good, their phone support was slow and not toll free. The average wait time during peak business hours is 15 minutes. Fortunately, I was very patient working it out myself and achieved the cards I wanted, but, I would not recommend this product to anyone who is on a tight schedule as this will not solve your greeting card woes."
+15741,2,Wake Yourself Up!,"""Mean Girls"" is the two-year old film from writer Tina Fey and featuring Lindsay Lohan. I have loved all of her work and now this. Out of all her films, I thought this one was the best. This was moving, funny, dramatic, and wildly inventive, all at the same time. The film is a work of genius, and it's constantly entertaining, and all of the scenes work. It is not your average Lindsay Lohan movie like ""The Parent Trap"" and ""Freaky Friday."" Lohan proves once again that she can do more than Disney remakes, and she had already proven herself with ""Get a Clue"" which I really liked."
+15742,2,Eastern Influences on Western Philosophy,"From my point of view, this book is very useful for the teaching of the history of political thought as well as political theory and philosophy. The tendency to separate Western thought fom all the World outside is quite obvious and will have bad consequences. The Classics of philosophy were much more openminded than contemporary professors - it is well shown in the book. We need the books like this one to overcome predicted or real clashes of civilizations. My congratulations to the authors and editors!"
+15743,2,What Goes Around Comes Around,"I, like so many other blind sheep, dismissed the Atkins plan for many years. I did so because of all the alarmist propaganda put out by the Medical Establishment that this diet was ""dangerous"". I believed them even though I had solid evidence to the contrary. Back in 1972, a high school friend who was grossly overweight went on the Atkins diet. Before my eyes, he took off 80 lbs - and kept it off! For thirty years! No ill effects! In short, it was just propaganda by the Medical Establishment, and now the truth is finally coming out. Fortunately, Dr. Atkins, like Mahatma Gandhi, stuck to his guns and has never yielded grounds to the hyenas who tried to discredit him."
+15744,2,Ironclads,"Although it is in VHS format, the movie is of fine quality. For Civil War buffs, this is one to have in your collection."
+15745,1,"nickelodeon party blast,horrible game","this game was bought for my niece and son.installed the game and it constantly shuts off.screen flickers,you can't use the keyboard correctly and then it just shuts off.they say it won't work with intel chipsets,well i have a via chipset and amd processor.so i guess they're wrong there.i'm using an ati radeon 9700 pro card,amd athlon 2200+ so there is plenty of power.tried the latest via and ati drivers with no help at all.don't waste your money and thank god i only wasted 9.99 at target.i also tried to totally clean the registry of all traces and it doesn't help.even a fresh install of xp didn't help.so there you have it.one last thing,there are no patches to download and support is like talking to a brick wall,except the wall might be more helpfull cause you can at least smash the cd off it."
+15746,2,You'll love it,"If you're a Janes fan, this is a must buy. Cheap price for an awesome product and its Blu-Ray!'Nuff said 8)"
+15747,2,Bon Jovi bounces into this era!,"I have to tell you that this album is one of Bon Jovi's Best. They have made the leap into this millineum with this album. They seem to be closing the age gap and people young and old can appreciate this album. A few of the tracks are a bit harder than most long time fans will like, but the soft ballads are there also. I believe if you give it a listen or two you will be pleasantly surprised to see where Bon Jovi is going with this. It has a few catchy tunes- you know, the ones you just can't get off your mind- like Undivided, Bounce and Everyday. But Misunderstood has to be my favorite. Bon Jovi proves they have weathered the storm of music and age with grace and endurance!!"
+15748,1,My Cat Lost This Collar in One Month!,"I am still looking for a collar for my outdoor cat that won't come off and get lost. It's been only a month, and both cats showed up without their collars. These collars are pretty, but it won't stay on for long. Don't buy it and put on your city pet license tag, because you will most certainly lose it."
+15749,1,"In ""Sea Change"" Beck is floundering","This is Beck's lowest point as a lyric writer and musician.It's clear that the music and tone is about a failed relationship. Beck should have been able to mine this period of his life for some depth like many musicians before him but he can only cough up cliches like ""you're dead to me now"".Beck as a confessional singer/songwriter doesn't cut it. Compare this music to someone like Suzanne Vega's ""Songs in Red and Gray"" from last year which created great poetry out of her failed marriage. Compare this music to early Neil Young, whose song's like ""Heart of Gold"" or ""Don't let it Bring you Down"" cover the same region of the heart.Perhaps in time he may be able to pull some depth out of his private pain, but in this cd he tries for the spirt of Dylan and ends up sounding like Gordon Lightfoot."
+15750,2,"Lots of fun, price compare first","This toy was given to my 3 yr old son for Christmas and he loves it. It's huge, but it stores all the tools and any others you have managed to collect. It comes with so many different items, we have fun playing with it everyday. There is also room inside for me to store a sheet to put down so the dough doesn't stick to the carpet. My only warning: price compare first. The price on Amazon fluctuates, so when my sister bought this it was $20 cheaper at a big name toy store. Also, the review that notes the ""picker upper"" doesn't work well and the roller has to have all the cutters on it, that's true, but it doesn't take away from the overall fun of the toy for me or my son. A great gift idea too."
+15751,2,"SO WONDERFUL,THE BEST!","Ummm just to let all you people out there bashing JoJo you are totally stupid!I mean how dum do you gotta be to say JoJo is a total nothing.I am only 12 days older than her(14) and i love her to death!She maybe be 14 but if you haven't realized more younger people are dating these days and doing ""it"" with their dates.THey are getting pregnant earlier and earlier.She may be 14 but she does know what she is talking about and so do many younger kids today thanks to society telling them its cool to go do ""it"" with other kids even though they may be 12 or 13.I know someone at middle school that got pregnant at 12! SO grow up and start learning the facts of reality!!!"
+15752,2,An excellent handbook that covers all the basics,"I picked this book up shortly after my first fly rod & have found it be great for understanding the basics of fly fishing. All of the equipement and tackle assembley is clearly stated & illustrated for the begining fly fisherman. Casting & stategey are covered as well, although I would reccomend picking up a book on casting as well."
+15753,1,Wrist band too small...,I have large wrists and this one was WAY too small for me !!!! It seemed like it might fit a child. I don't see how it actually fits this many people. I DO have larger wrists but not THAT big ! Seems to be sized for a VERY small person.
+15754,1,Don't Waste Money on a Blu-Ray,"If you like slasher movies, you will enjoy this one. The only problem here is that the quality of the print is so poor that any extra money spent on a Blu-Ray disc is wasted. If you want to add this movie to your collection, buy the DVD because the Blu-Ray is not going to get you any better quality (certainly not 1080P quality)."
+15755,2,Clayton Moore Films,I remember watching Zorro when I was about 8 years old. I was enthralled with the serial and could not wait for the next installment to come to the theatre. There were fantastic rescue scenes that I felt where excellently done. Now at the age of 54 I still get goose bumps when Clayton get trapped on the railrod tracks and has to use his whip to change the tracks just in the nick of time. I've watched a lot of serials but this has to be one that has some bekievable scenes.
+15756,2,HoMedics on Amazon,"We felt fortunate to find a product like the one we had been looking for, which we wanted to give as a gift to a friend but had not been able to find from local sources. We needed it for a certain date and were hoping that going to Amazon would get it for us in time.Not only did we find it and got it delivered in plenty of time, it was at a very good price and we were even more surprised and pleased with the ""No charge shipping"".All in all a very satisfying shopping experience.Thank you."
+15757,2,Perfectly Frank,This is a good samplig of what Frank and music in general WAS. in the 60's. A must for any fan of Frank.
+15758,2,Insightful,I tought this book was very well written. When I first found out about this belief I looked for books on it and this one answered alot of questions for me. I found it very interesting and insightful.
+15759,1,Astrology? Are you serious?,"This dense, heavy book is painful to read, and the pseudo-scholarship is all in the service of promoting the long-discredited view that the stars rule our lives. Give me a break! There is absolutely no evidence that anything in astrology is true. Wake up Tarnas, join the 21st century. Stop wasting your time with nonsense."
+15760,2,"Easy read for the computer ""non-literate.""","The scripts are top-rate. At a quick glance in the programs (most of which work in newer browsers, I might add), you could get an idea of what certain triggers and handlers could do. With the explanation of what they do on the side, it makes writing programs even easier. This well-written book (certainly not for programming professionals) is a must have for the beginning Web Page author."
+15761,1,The Summer of the Swans,"The book,The Summer of the Swans is the most boring book we ever read,because it's so predictible and boring.Even The Ugly duckling is better than this.It had no action and wasn't entertaining.The book is about a 14 year old girl who thinks her life is getting worse.Then there's Charlie the retarded kid of the family.Also there's Wanda,the show off ,and bossy Aunt Willie.The ending is so predictible that I did not want to finish it,I don't recommend it to anyone I give it no stars."
+15762,1,CUISINART,THIS ITEM LASTS ONLY MAX 6 MONTHS !!! I ALREADY BOUGHT FEW AND TODAY THE LAST ONE I PURCHASED DOES NOT WORK ANYMORE. I AM VERY UPSET AND FED UP TO SPEND MONEY .
+15763,1,a very uneven movie,"Even though there were occasional brilliances, I kept asking myself why so many people found this movie great. I found the story very incoherent and everything was excessive. It was full of overacting and overdirecting. There are some stories to which movies just can't do justice. I'd rather read the book than watch this movie version. I think people should stop justifying this film only because Kubrik made it."
+15764,2,Great Pocket Reference,This is a great pocket reference guide that contains special tests for and information about any joint or suspected injury. It's a great book to have in your medical library.
+15765,2,Amazing pre-baby book,"I used this book from about week 14 or so, and religiously took pictures of my belly and put them on each page. It's the coolest book ever and a great gift for an expecting mom. If you give this book as a gift, make sure to give it early so the to-be mom can take picture of her belly and make notes from the very beginning. An amazing gift!!!!"
+15766,2,Insightful,"I felt Jeff VanVonderen did a great job explaining God's plan for family structure. I really liked this book, and plan to reread it with my husband as we are currently raising our first child who is 5 months old right now."
+15767,1,Does NOT fit Oreck Commercial Vacuum as advertised!,"This item was suggested as a ""bundle"" with the Oreck Commercial OR101 Premiere vacuum but does NOT work with that unit. DO NOT PURCHASE FOR THE COMMERCIAL VACUUM!"
+15768,1,Nothing to write home about...,"I bought this book thinking it sounded interesting, and since I'd heard quite a bit about the author but hadn't read anything of his yet, I gave it a whirl. I was extremely disappointed about a quarter of the way through the book, and from there, it only got worse. Meltzer is a gifted writer, I believe, but not gifted enough to break as many conventions of fiction writing as he does with disturbing frequency. I had to grit my teeth to read past the halfway point, and am genuinely surprised at how many positive reviews this novel has received. It's not the worst I've read, but I have to say I expected more. If you can smell bad writing from more than a mile away, look somewhere else. This novel was a page-turner in the sense that I read on only to see if it would improve. It didn't."
+15769,2,Perfect,"we bought this for our 3 year old for when we went on vacation and it was PERFECT! It blew-up easily, the cover was nice and soft...needless to say she loved it!"
+15770,2,Bolek i Lolek camping/on vacation,"It's ""Tom and Jerry"" without voilence and more diversed. Good music in the background.Characters and situations are simple but clever.My 6 yrs/2 yrs old grandsons love it.Highly recommanded."

+15775,1,A film school drop out special,"This is the results of a good script, bad director and only one or two good actors. The only good acting done in this film were by the actors portraying crazy. The two leads, well she did well he needs a lot more lessons and some good critique before he's allowed to do anything in front of a camera again.And why was the director useing such childish and out of date camera methods? Is he a throwback to the seventies?!I want my money and 2 hours of my life back."
+15776,1,Black & Decker CO85 Spacemaker Can Opener White,"We owned a Black & Decker under counter can opener which worked perfectly for about 35 years but decided to buy a replacement. I consider this replacement (CO85), to be almost useless. The problem is, it is very difficult to get an unopened can positioned properly, to begin the opening process. After five or six failed attempts, we give up and resort to our ""old faithful"" manual can opener. I read some of the favorable positive reviews prior to my purchase. Since then I've read some negative reviews which report the same problem I am having. Black & Decker, you have cheapened your product and good name by having this new item made in China. I do not have a problem with Amazon but consider the CO85 a very poorly designed product."
+15777,1,wrong rollers,I bought these rollers thinking this was what I was shopping for...no excuse for not liking them.. I am sure they are great rollers..just what I needed..
+15778,2,"Well written, good plot",I have read two of Anthony Trollopes novels and I found this to be the better of the two so far. It is quite discriptive of the period and the plot is quite good. I enjoyed it and will read more of his works in the future
+15779,1,cheap product,"for 30 days, no problem, then it brakes. 1st the cable broke and it took the company 20 days to replaced, then the screw stripped and it took 10 days to replace it. then the cable broke again and it was out of stock and back ordered for 30 days. It's not good to have a product you can not use because the parts keeps braking. The company Stamina is small and dont have the parts to back up their products. This product is made cheap that's why the parts keep braking."
+15780,1,GREAT FAMILY VALUES SERIES?? NO SIR!!,"When I think of family values TV I think of ""The Waltons"" or ""Little House"". Reba is a program that obviously appeals to the masses of people who have no values and no standards by which to abide. If television has become a wasteland it is because of shows like this, Will & Grace, Sex and the City, all the teen soap operas out there, etc. What is it going to take for people to come to their senses and realize that supporting programs like this is what is contributing to the decaying moral fiber of America today."
+15781,2,Great product and great packaging...,"Amazing turnaround time by Amazon.com and got it to us by Christmas as a gift for a little relative of ours.Each one of our kids had one of those and it was great fun. However, it was once more validated when the little 2 month old responded immediately with smile when he was put underneath the hanging toys. It was pretty telling that he enjoyed it. However, he was not very attentive to the sound part and the all the adults thought the songs were kind of lackluster at best.In any case, a good toy for the little one and the adult parents will appreciate the toy as well."
+15782,1,Item not as pictured,"My wife has purchased and worn this style for many years; however, the items received were nothing like the picture. The pictured item was exactly what she wanted, lace waistband AT (not below) her waist and high-cut leg openings; the delivered item was an entirely different style with an entirely different (and unsatisfactory) fit. She'd opened all the items to check them individually before discovering that items had to be unopened and in the original shipping packaging in order to be accepted for return."
+15783,1,Poor design catches and pinches little fingers,"It's cute, but the rotating barrel on this shape sorter doesn't really add anything to the toy. The blocks fall out of the elephant's trunk instantly (no need to rotate at all), and I threw it away after my 10-month old got her finger painfully stuck in it and had a small bruise. Toys that bite aren't fun! It was also much more difficult to keep track of the blocks because it's almost impossible to store all the blocks in the elephant at once; they fall out of the trunk too easily. We have enjoyed Fisher-Price Brilliant Basics Baby's First Blocks far more than this toy."
+15784,1,Save your money for Sid Meier's Civ III,"I've been a long-time fan of the Civ games, but this ""update"" of Civ II left me seriously disappointed. The graphics leave alot to be desired - they are no better than in the older Civ II product, and in several instances, are worse.Since Sid Meier left them to join Firaxis, they have done nothing to improve the product at all. I am happy to see that Sid Meier is doing Civ III (and of course, Alpha Centauri, the follow-up to CivIII, which is also a GREAT game). I'd really suggest you get Civ III, and try Alpha Centauri if you can find it."
+15785,1,What Happened To Ingersoll- Rand???,"I'll have to agree with the previous poor review of this grinder. This is just another example of CHINESE CRAP! Right out of the box it sounds like all of the internal parts are misaligned or the bearings were destroyed when it was assembled. This grinder will be returned ASAP. I have lots of IR tools in my shop and have always been satisfied until now, however those tools were made in America. I'm sure I'm not alone on this one. Don't waste your cash on this tool. ARE YOU LISTENING INGRERSOLL-RAND??? You are losing your customers!"
+15786,1,punisher looses all realism with ennis,"I believe that most people who read the punisher read it hoping for a realistic story and character. After all, a guy with no uniform except for a skull on his shirt and no superpowers, the punisher was made this way. However, when Ennis began to write him he lost all sense of realism. Here is what you have to look forward to.The punisher fights a large Russian with big breasts (yes 6 years old may find it funny I personally thought it was dumb) The punisher fights an old lady with no arms and legs, again it was just dumb. If you are looking for a creative story thats realistic don't go here. The people that rated this book so high I believe were just big fans they don't recommend the average person who read this comic I don't think. Think twice before buying it is all i'm saying. If you want to give the punisher a try I'm not saying don't, read ""circle of blood"" or ""punisher warzone"" both are great realistice comics with the punisher"
+15787,1,Accentuate the Positive,"The premise of this book -- the sacredness of sexual union and the importance of gender equality, is noble indeed and warrants a great deal more attention by society. But I found the author to be far too negative in spite of some excellent comments. It was painful to me, a man, to have to wallow through an extended chronicle of relatively obscure examples of misogyny, used to make a case for change that is probably self-evident to anyone reading this book. Had the author devoted more of her research to the positive to which we may all intrinsically aspire, it would have been a more valuable read. The world can benefit enormously from a deep respect for all creation that transcends the sordid, selfish history upon which she dwells."
+15788,2,Michel Gondry is brilliant!,If you like cool videos this collection is for you. He's one of the best video directors alive. He lets imagination go wild.
+15789,1,Where's my Hotdog?!?!?!,"They put 48 songs on this set but leave off ""Planet Hotdog""!!! Why can we not get the entire soundtrack? After ""Planet Schmanet Janet"", it is supposed to go right into ""Planet Hotdog"" and they CUT IT OFF!!! This really cheeses me off to no end!!!"
+15790,1,Um..not quite what I suspected,"I have heard a lot about this book, most of it good, but I must admit that it wasn't as utterly fantastic as most people have told me. It seemed to take me forever to get through this book. The storyline was flawed (first a bunch of theives-which was quite interesting-but a MAGICAL MERRY GO ROUND?) the ending was predictible, and there didn't seem to be alot of obstacles to pass to get to the main goal. The Thief Lord was a pretty boring book--even though it has been compared to it, this book has nothing on Artemis Fowl."
+15791,2,becoming extinct,"Do I really need to review this? If you need it, get it. If you don't, then why are you reading this?"
+15792,2,The best Ockeghem performances!,"The Clerks' Group is a supreme group of singers, and these performances of Ockeghem's music are supreme in quality, far outstripping most other groups' recordings by far. It is very hard to find good performances of Ockeghem's music, partly because it is so dense polyphonically. The Clerks' Group has risen to the challenge superbly. I can't rave enough about these recordings.For some reason, the MP3 downloads on this Amazon site aren't working (not for me anyway), but the recordings can be purchased, @ $.99 per cut, on the iTunes Store."
+15793,1,"The Worst in the ""Friday the 13th"" Series of the series","If not for the travesty that is Jason X, this would be the worst movie in the series. I tend to not give movies 1 star ratings because there's usually something redeemable in every movie. No, not this time. Everything in this movie is bad, the acting, the plot, the script, the ""fauz"" location, even though I know why more of the movie didn't take place in New York. Even the ending was terrible.I can't say that I recommend this movie to anyone. The Friday the 13th buffs may even want to pass on this one."
+15794,1,"Misleading, misrepresentation, one CD only not 4","This is misleading. Not the 4 disc set as described, just one 50 minute disc in French.Don't waste your time."
+15795,1,Not work at all!,"I've been buying these discs since 2004. However the discs in the last spindle I received don't work at all! I've done the same thing as always when recording on my DVD recorder and nothing was saved. I don't mean anything but this facts coincides with the lowering of the price. A few months ago, this spindle costed $15-17 and now only $9-10."
+15796,2,awesome album,"I've been a fan of this band since their original release years ago. This is not their best stuff, but still very descent. As always there are tons of excellent guitar riffs, with the drums to match. This album is missing those brutal breakdowns From Autumn fans are accustomed to. It is still a very solid album throughout."
+15797,2,Queer as Folk,"I haven't bought this book, but I read the preview section that they have and can't wait to buy it! Everything seemed to be correct except for the shell bracelet. In the show, season 3, when Brian's nephew is being a homophobic punk, he steals the bracelet and tells the police that Brian molested him. Justin goes to his nephew at the arcade and tries to convince him to tell the truth, when he notices the bracelet. To convince the police his nephew is lying, he gets Detective Horvath to the kids' house, Horvath asks for the bracelet and Justin says, ""He got it in Mexico. His initials are carved on one of the shells.""Here, it says he got it from Micheal for his 18th birthday."
+15798,1,Impossible to differentiate between nipple sizes; leaky too...,"I generally like Dr. Brown's bottles, although admittedly they do leak on a consistent basis. But by far the most frustrating aspect of these bottles are the impossible-to-read labels found on the underside of the nipple. My twins alternate between level 1 (for breastmilk), Level 2 (for formula), and the Y cut (for formula thickened with cereal). It is ridiculously difficult to read the transparent raised label on the underside of the nipple, especially when it is a bleary-eyed attempt in the middle of the night.If I didn't get these for free from a friend, I never would have stuck with the brand."
+15799,2,Great with a flaw or two,"The instructions for installing and training were very clear and our dog was very quick to pick it up. The installation took about a day for the full 500 ft coverage as was as expected. It is still working well after two months with no problems in the system. The one problem we do have is with the collar. The connections on the receiver come loose from the collar often and we almost lost the whole thing once. We made it a habit of tightening the connections every time we take the collar off and put it on. Also, the whole collar is now fraying terribly where the holes are that we aren't using. We now have to find a new collar since ours will not last much longer. The collar is just too cheaply made. Otherwise, the whole system works great and we are pleased."
+15800,1,Too confusing,"This is the 5th book I've read on the subject and it was by far the most confusing. I consider myself to be in the intermediate level of handwriting analysis, but still found myself confused at the lack of explanations as to how the author drew his conclusions. Maybe it is for the more advanced student. I certainly would not recommend it for anyone other than someone with advance knowledge of graphology."
+15801,2,I loved it so much i got another one.,"and another one. I have had this printer for several years. My sister bought one and my brother bought one too. we all still have our printers and love them. We buy bulk or remanufactured inks at great dscounts. Am hoping to upgrade to an all in one with an lcd screen, but still scared it won't be this good. I print photos all the time, people cannot believe i printed at home. of course u have to learn how to work with your printer and get the right paper. but once u get it wow the quality is great"
+15802,2,GREAT resource!,"I needed this for two term papers and my thesis. It's easy to use, VERY rich in definitions and examples and has a full bibliography in the back. Great, great compilation of alchemy."
+15803,1,Save your money - don't purchase this hoop.,"I purchased this floating hoop for my 12 year old brother to use in our soft-sided backyard pool. It looked sturdy and easy to maintain (didn't have to inflate and deflate it). Once it arrived, we assembled it and took it out for a trial run. HUGE DISAPPOINTMENT!!! The hoop is so incredibly top-heavy that it was constantly falling forward. Basically, someone had to stand there and hold it so it wouldn't keep faceplanting in the water. It would hardly stay up in calm water, much less in the turbulence created by an in-water basketball game. We got sick of messing with it and never used it again. Waste of money!"
+15804,1,"Cheap, you get what you pay for","I wanted to listen to the music on my iPod and my car didn't have a direct line in, and I didn't want to burn a bunch of CDs, this looked like a good deal at the time, but it ended up not being one. It's really hard to find a station in which you get a decent signal, and oftentimes, you have to wave the iPod around before you can actually have it pick it up. All in all, it ends up being pretty staticky and you just get fed up listening to it."
+15805,2,One of the best Irish music CDs around!,"I love Riding Towards Life. If you like Irish music, this CD is a must. It's got slow songs, fast songs, ballads, waltzes, jigs, and more.I've seen Evergreen three times live, and this CD is a compliation of some of thier best work. Evergreen is wonderful in concert - their lively and happy on stage, really into thier music and having fun. They play with gusto and spirit and enthusiam, which can't help but rub off on thier audience - and on this CD.The CD is brimming with fun and life - you can almost see Evergreen behind you, playing away. Riding Towards Life is wonderful for almost any mood, to listen to, to dance to, to write to, or just to have on as background music.My personal favorite is track 6, with its powerful, moving violin duet, and I love the very lively track 7. In fact, the whole CD is quite a treat. Do yourself a favor and buy this CD - you'll thank yourself when you've listened to it a million times and walk around humming thier songs."
+15806,2,Great cookbook,This is my number 1 cookbook. I am prepared to give away most of the other cookbooks I own that are gathering dust on the shelf. My husband is even starting cook using this book. You can have complete confidence that any of the recipes you choose from this book will come out great and be delicious.

+15808,1,waste of money,The first strap broke 30min into our trip. It flew off and went under the car behind us-lucky no crash! We had to stop and buy bungee cords to hold it on the rest of the way. We when arrived the bag had multiple tiny tears. Our stuff got wet when it rained. Before we came home we had to tape the whole bag with waterproof tape. Half way home (about 6 hours into trip) people on the highway started honking at us as another strap had broken and the bag was sliding off the bag of our van- suitcases and all. We had to buy a 20$ strap to hold it on. I called customer service to report problem and was told rep was at lunch and would call me back- haven't heard back from them at all.
+15809,1,Battery dies in 6 months,"I had one of these years ago- lasted 2 years. Since then, they die within the year. Batteries are $20 to replace- so I purchased a new unit- it lasted 8 months if I was lucky. :("
+15810,2,Real history in a cracking novel with a superb twist!,"The modern vocal style threw me at first, then I assumed that all would be explained (it is!) and from then on had a wonderful read. There is real history here, I've been to some of the places, and obviously so has the author. Some juicy characterisations, a little wannabe sex thrown in, but not enough to put people off. Charles, who's to say that the Vikings didn't bring potatoes back from Vinland? Who cares about the odd 'oops' with a cracking story like this - more please! BTW. a dragon is a Viking longboat."
+15811,1,Not durable,"I like the Play Toy company and many of their products, but many of their products are not durable. The part that rolls the elevator up and down bends easily and has stopped working on ours. Also I don't like that the gas station pumps are not very accessible."
+15812,2,A Great Reference For VBA,"This book has proven itself to be a great reference source for developing Office 97 integrated solutions. I have been able to provide company solutions which allow inserting and extracting of information between the Office 97 Word, Access and Outlook that has saved hours of work.This book combined with the on-line help system is esstenial for tailoring Office 97 to your companies needs."
+15813,2,A Real Blender,"After having owned several less than stellar blenders this one has really opened my eyes. It actually blends/crushes/mixes everything I have tried to put in it, and as a bonus it's as quiet as I would have guessed a blender could be. I was mildly skeptical about buying a reconditioned product but it came seeming good as new. I haven't owned it long enough to get an idea of how long it's going to last, but being KitchenAid is a great start!"
+15814,2,Has hardly left my CD player since I bought it...,"This is the first Switchfoot CD I have purchased (although I did have a couple of their songs on some multiple-artist promo CD I got a few years ago). It was the rare CD that I had purchased purely on word of mouth, but I have really enjoyed it. ""More to Live"" definitely opens up the disc with a great guitar hook and high energy. Other songs have some variety in form/style, but I have always appreciated a band that doesn't use the same formula on every song. Vocals on a couple of songs remind me of Toad the Wet Sprocket's vocalist. Vocals on others are more like other modern-rock bands, although this is definitely NOT a ""Christian band trying to sound like other popular bands"" CD. Plenty of originality in the music and lyrics. One of the best modern rock buys I have made recently."
+15815,2,Perfect intro to SQL and PL/SQL,"This books covers all the necessary basics of SQL, and then shows how to create Oracle triggers, functions, and stored procedures. It's easy to read. It has great examples. Couldn't ask for a better combination."
+15816,1,Doesn't work with Audi,"From all of the reviews of this product, I thought I was getting the top-of-line scanner that would work with any vehicle. I have US-made, Asian-made, and German-made cars. From what I can tell, it does not work with my 1998 Audi A4. I have tried different connection combinations, vehicle key positions, standing on my head, etc with no luck. I will be returning it to Amazon tomorrow. But,...From what I can tell, this does seem to be a very nice unit if it will work with your vehicle. It has all of the features that I was looking for. I just need one that will work with my Audi."
+15817,2,A pleasant watch,"I think Duane and Kelly Rowlands both did their thing in this film. It was an enjoyable and tasteful film about true love and how people can connect during the strangest moments. Kelly is truly a beautiful and talanted woman, and I wish her the best in life. It was simple, but good, and once in a while we need films like this to escape horrid films like that Killer cam movie...what was he thinkin. But I truly did enjoy the seat filler. I laughed and smiled."
+15818,1,Worst Tent Ever Owned,"This was our third tent owned. We loved the roominess (able to fit king size air mattress, two children's cots and two full size dog beds, plus a camping potty) and the ability to put up awning.I'll start with the awning. Very easy to install, but unsteady during winds. The first rain shower this tent took in 90 gallons of water. Thankfully, we were camping on our own property! Took hours using our 10 gallon wet-dry vac to get out the water. We put the tent in our barn to dry out the rest of the way, and since we didn't stake it down the poor thing fell over putting a good size gash in it's rainfly. No tears shed, but it will be missed.Purchased a smaller Coleman Instant tent & absolutely love it!!!! In one fall weekend camped at two cub scout family campouts and able to put this tent up with my 10 y/o son and I. Haven't experienced rain with this one yet."

+15820,1,"Boring, boring, boring.....","Apparently, people who like this movie don't like to see it criticized. This is apparent in the number of 'unhelpful' votes this review has been given (far more than it would have if I just said a single sentence about how great it is). But, I still hated the movie and thought it was boring. You may like it, and if you do, great. Here's my original review:This is by far the most boring movie I've ever seen. I would have turned it off, but I kept expecting that something (anything) interesting would happen. Nothing interesting ever happened, though there were a couple of funny spots. I'd like to have those two hours of my life back. I fortunately didn't waste my money buying the DVD, but rented it instead. Even after reading some of the reviews here, I don't know what anyone could like about this movie. I would have given it zero stars if possible."
+15821,1,The Basket,"Only two words can aptly describe ""The Basket""--- Painfully Horrible. Don't waste your time on the ""Waste Basket."" I can't believe a made for TV movie(with a Sunday at 3am airtime) actually made it to DVD. What a waste of good technology on a piece of garbage (. . .)"
+15822,1,I didn't like anything about this moisturizer,"I purchased this moisturizer at CVS after trying neutrogena Ultra sheer liquid dauly sun protection which, by the way, is amazing. I'm so so dassapointed in this oil free moisturizer, the reasons are: it does feel greasy, it's irritating, it is hard to apply makeup on it, it does not moisturize. After three or four times of using it i end up washing it off my face and squeezing the rest of my old moisturizer out of the tube( Vichy for oily skin ). I would not recomend it to anyone; there are some options out there that are in the same price range but much better quality( vichy is an example)."
+15823,1,Do not buy a book without flipping it.,"That's what happened to me respect this book. Conclusion: DO NOT BUY ANY BOOK, EVER, WITHOUT FLIPPING IT. OTHER'S REVIEW ARE NOT RELIABLE. This is the third time I bougth a book based on other's review. I repented."

+15825,2,Captivating,I enjoyed this movie in theaters and watching it again at home. The storyline is great and Charlize Theron is captivating in her role.
+15826,1,DO NOT BE FOOLED!!!!,"The only reason that anyone would buy this product is to find out if they have a mold problem at home. Then you get charged an additional $39 for them to give you a ""detailed"" report of your problem.Well, the subsequent report will not tell you to what extent your mold problem is. In fact, they won't even tell you IF it is a problem at all.After they've taken all your money they say: ""There are no standards for determining what is an acceptable, tolerable or normal quantity of mold"".Helloooo???? Why didn't you state that up front?They go on to say: ""No matter what type of mold is present, you should arrange for it's removal""Helloooo???? I coulda saved $39 if you had been honest to begin with!The only difference between these guys and Jesse James is that JJ used to rob people with a six-shooter!!!"
+15827,1,Disappointing,"If you like authors that cut and paste from Microsoft's online help files, you'll like Nathan Wallace. This book had a great topic but Wallace did little to clarify it. The cover of the book mentions Windows 98, Internet Explorer 5 and Visual C++ 6.0, making a reader think that this is really new stuff (even Microsoft Press doesn't have this stuff out yet!) but inside, the book only mentions these topics in passing. The book is really about Visual C++ 5.0 and Internet Explorer 4.0. (The WIndows 95 verses Windows 98 issue is not really relevant.)"
+15828,1,Cheap plasticy looking and can't see the light 3 feet away,Buy this if u have money to spend on junk stuff that you are no going to use. I never knew halogen light was so dull. I dont believe personally that this has a halogen bulb.

+15830,1,Saves electricity by not working,"At first I was disappointed that this unit didn't work - right out of the box - but then I quickly saw an upside in that it wouldn't be eating up electricity. I could be saving $50 or so, I imagine, by sitting in a sweltering room with a non-functioning air conditioner that can't be serviced, according to Frigidaire.If I really bite the bullet and opt for a working air conditioner I can look forward succumbing to heat exhaustion while boxing this baby up and sending it back to the retailer at my expense."
+15831,2,Can't believe it took me so long!,"I got this for my dad. Him and I are fishing buddies, but now that I have moved out he has to go fishing by himself a bit more. I love knowing that if he accidentally gets thrown off the boat by a rouge wave (which happen even in glassy calm waters) that this thing will keep him afloat. It is comfortable and you forget it is there."
+15832,2,I love this product,I choose this rating because this is an excellent product.I've used this type of products for at least 2 months.This product went past my expectation.
+15833,2,"So dark, you can't even see it","For most people who just discovered Cold, if you listen to this CD and compare it with 13 Ways To Bleed Onstage, you might be surprised at how their debut CD is much angrier, frustrated and depressing than the newer stuff. The music is pretty simple, but still rocks. Scooter's voice is great on this album. They do a lot more acoustic songs, which is nice, because I think bands like Cold really shine the best through their acoustic numbers. Some songs seem almost over-the-top depressing, especially ""Insane."" ""Give"" is my favorite track, a very fast, but emotional track with a great chorus. Fred Durst (love him or hate him) really made a great discovery with this band and I cannot wait for their 3rd CD."
+15834,1,This film made me sleepy,"Minority Report was produced by Dreamworks SKG, which is run by the three most powerful men in Hollywood (Spielberg, Katzenberg and Geffen), and it has a very over-rated but somehow extremely popular movie star in it (Tom Cruise) so you would think it would be a big-budget blockbuster, but this is not the case at all. In Minority Report, We are expected to believe that Washington DC in the year 2054 is a very clean and sterile metropolis, with no run-down buildings or graffiti on the walls. Precrime, the department that uses genetically-gifted ""Pre-cogs"" is entrusted with arresting murderers before they kill. The pre-cogs look like every other alien in Spielberg's movies (most noteably AI), and Tom Cruise is always shown running around with very little meaning or purpose to his actions. The ending was weak and predictable, and it was WAY too long, considering it was a very mediocre movie"
+15835,2,Fine work but there's even better,"I agree with most reviewers, this is pretty hot stuff. I just want to draw your attention to two other MF jewels; the Live album and Mother Factor. The sizzling former even tops the high energy level of ""Another Mother Further"", the latter is a bit more varied in its offerings, particularly what concerns the gorgeous slower tracks.If you like the MF kind of funk, I recommend you have a listen toRare Earths funky period (Midnite Lady, Warm Ride), Wild Cherry, early Commodores, the right picks (cf my reviews) of Gladys Knight, Rufus, Millie Jackson, Thelma Houston."
+15836,2,better than the movie,"really good book, good enough to make me not want to go on vacation in a remote place! some parts dragged- esp in the beginning - but overall very entertaining. scary when it needed to be!!! glad i picked it up before i saw the movie which was pretty weak for the most part"
+15837,1,Got better reslults with green tea,I know everyone is different but I saw zero difference when I was taking CLA. I got results from green tea some but I have lost over 80 lbs just training hard and eating clean. I don't take anything at all now other than vitamins.
+15838,2,"A ""real"" artist worth listening to!!","I'll admit, I wasn't too crazy about John Mayer when he first came on the scene, but his singles started to grow on me. So, I downloaded this recently to give it a chance. I must say it's wonderful!! Sure, it's definitely not the fast paced pop music I normally listen to, but unlike Jason Mraz, most of John's songs have that ""hook"", ""catch"", or just ""that special something"" about them. They have a great mellow feel without being boring, so it doesn't force you into a coma. It made a pop fan like me take a second glance! Definitely a must-buy!!"
+15839,1,Disappointed,I have always enjoyed Penelope Stokes writings but was very disappointed with Delta Belles. I considered her writings wholesome but I could not recommend this one to my dear friends because of her handling the lesbian issue. It is an unbiblical life style and am dissappointed that she has slipped into that type of writing. I hope that her next book will be more enjoyable.
+15840,2,A History Class for my Goddaughter,"A Little History of the World will serve as an excellent primer for my very international goddaughter, who was born in Hungary and whose parents are from Holland and Poland. I, myself, am an American who has been involved in international affairs for several decades and I wanted my goddaughter to be introduced to the most important events and personalities in world history without the cultural biases and prejudices that abound in so many so-called ""authoritative"" books.I read A Little History of the World very carefully to be sure that E.H. Gombrich's views were balanced and objective, yet entertaining. The book met all those criteria,plus it made history exciting and amusing. This book will make history accessible to my goddaughter and I hope she will enjoy reading it as much as I did."
+15841,1,An arrogant collection of repetitions,"As a business school graduate student, I have read a significant amount of strategy books and articles. This book is just an arrogant collection of repetitions. It does not provide any new insights."

+15846,1,DON'T buy this,don't buy this - bought one but it wouldnt charge (solid green light instead of flashing and constant beeping indicates as per manual not charging) - phoned Black and decker -the problem so widespread that first person i talked to (ie not someone in specialty dept.)knew all about it- went back to sears and with clerk tried all 8 in stock - all faulty - tried another sears store - 12 units all faulty - phoned a B and D independent store and they said they now test them in the store before selling to customer - obviously huge problem - don't buy
+15847,1,Last but least,"This movie is horrible,like the part when Bily gets shot and they think he is dead when really he isn't.But I did like the end when He fought kareem aldabar was interesting,Even a Bruce Lee fan wondnt like it."
+15848,1,I wish there was a choice of 0 stars,"First of all, the writing was boring and didn't flow naturally. I forced myself to keep reading. I've only ever had to do that one other time (with an Elizabeth Hand novel).Second, I was totally amazed with this book. I loved the part where an entire stadium full of people, and all the players (except one ""heathen"") at a Christian school disappeared all at once. I'm being facetious.I keep wondering what happens to all Jewish people (the chosen race, according to the Bible I grew up with). What about Mormons? Muslims? Are we so arrogant as to limit God's acceptance of different forms of worship? I, for one, as a believer in God, will NOT commit blasphemy and pretend to know the mind of God and what He will do.I found this book to be obnoxious; it didn't have either a Christian or Sci-Fi feel to me. It was just boring...."
+15849,2,FIRE ON THE MOUNTAIN,"The description on the page regarding ski resorts is rather different than the movie. Buddy Ebsen & Ron Howard star in this contemporary western which explores the rights of the government versus the rights of the individual. Ebsen plays a ranch owner in Arizona determined to live out his life on his own land, warding off government interference. Ron Howard plays Lee Mackie returned to the land of his youth, a neighbor of Ebsen's who is caught up in the buyout of land by the government to use as a missle testing site. A fierce battle rages over landownership that forces everyone in this rural area to choose side. Very pertinent to arguments raging today regarding the individual versus the government. A movie well worth viewing."

+15852,1,disappointment,"I have purchased the book trusting that it is part of brasilian jujitsu series. Compared to other books of the series, photos are not clear at all, explanations are not good, and I am in martial arts over 20 years, I could not see what is for experts. If you want an advanced book get J.J.Machado's one. The jello guard is probably invented just for having invented something. The jujitsu techniques are not advanced at all and the division of the book as jujitsu, submission wrestling, and vale tudo, leaves very little space for the techniques of each group, reducing the book to a mediocre technical level, with few techniques.Do not forget that Sperry, Bustamante, and others are not with him any more. I regret having purchased it."

+15854,1,It's just.... OK,I was really excited... I even bought a new PCIe based system and the ATI X800. The game looks great but after an hour into the game... its just the same thing over and over and over and over. A guy always jumps out of a corner..you walk into a room.. the lights go out. There is no game play here. MultiPlayer bites.. it is SOO SOOO SOOO not worth the $$$ Far Cry is so much better.

+15858,2,"Ye, it really works","I have two of the smaller sizes and this larger size. The dogs love it and it does not spill. Remember this does not mean you will not get drips from your dog's muzzle, but the bowl itself does not spill if over turned. Teh bright pink color is a bit over the top, but it is bright enough to see and avoid, therefore i have not spilled it either."
+15859,1,I expected so much more from such a high-rated novel,"I was so enthusiastic and worked up to expecting a splendid and original read, but came off greatly dissapointed and got frustrated trying to think of what all the hype was about with BRAVE NEW WORLD. I tried so very hard to like and enjoy reading this...but my mind just didn't want to cooperate. Such a complex and creepy look into a superfical world into this book was hard to grasp, this just wasn't the type of book I expected. I prefered 1984 and Animal Farm much more than Brave New World. I mean, it's hard to say that emotions can errupture with just a little pill, and vice versa. Oh well, maybe I'm a bit tuff to give such a beloved classic just 1 star, but that's what I deeply and truely think this book deserves. I'll stick to my old favorites: Eliot, Hardy, Orwell, Willa Cather, Wharton, Dreiser, and Gustave Flaubert. Hehe, I never get to tired of my favorites. Viz., I didn't like this classic."
+15860,1,Flashy but disappointing,"I didn't like the jazzy camera angles or color changes at the beginning of each section. Too much time is spent putting flashy images on the screen and you have to wait around for the workouts to start. I expected more from the Tai Chi workout, like actually feeling ""focused, energized and refreshed!"" as claimed on the cover. This workout was WAY too minimal. Not being familiar with aeroboxing or kickboxing, I'm not surprised that I couldn't keep up at first, but, I think Kathy's pace makes adjusting for your fitness level difficult. You really need to already be familiar with these moves, or at least really coordinated.Basically, this purchase was a disappointment. I don't recommend it."
+15861,2,Great Entertainment with Friends!,"We recently had a fantastic evening playing Brainstrain with some close friends. Right from the start of the game, we knew it would be fun to play as we laughed at the silliness of how we looked wearing the bands around our heads that held a Brainstrain card identifying who, what or where we were. Since the game lets players choose what to write on their cards, I found it was interesting to see what kinds of ideas our creative friends came up with! The ""question and answer"" sessions were wild, as we raced against the minute timer to guess our identities. Frequently we were amazed at how good we were at guessing some of the more obscure items, and then were totally dense on the obvious ones! I'm sure that Brainstrain is a game we will enjoy playing many times."
+15862,1,Love Lewis- Lukewarn about this book,"I am a CS Lewis fan. Have read Chronicles, Till we Have Faces, Screwtape Letters, etc. Was really excited to read this book based on the reviews posted here. I was terribly disappointed. This book moved at a snails pace. I was bored to tears until chapter 12 picked up through 18, and let down through the last post script. I am not sure if the reviews were based on Lewis the author or the book- but I didn't get the raves. Needless to say, I am done with the space journey and won't be finishing the trilogy."
+15863,1,A soulless and incompetent action/thriller,"Words cannot describe...

The only thing missing is a carrying case. It came in a plastic bag; would have preferred something a little more durable/longer lasting.
+15866,1,Disappointing after reading Pushing Ice,"After reading Pushing Ice, the much shorter Diamond Dogs was a tad disappointing. It lacked depth and character development. A bunch of people head out to explore an alien spire full of puzzles. Get it right, you move on to the next room. Get it wrong, you get sliced and diced. Frankly, its as if Reynolds watched ""The Cube"", and decided to write his own version. The lack of a solid resolution left this story as an empty copy of another idea. Since we never learn anything about the Spire or the aliens who created it, there's nothing original to get lost in and the final ""twist"" is lackluster. I'd pass on this one."
+15867,1,Facts Schmacts,I had to have this book for a Creation and Evolution class. I was really looking forward to hearing a scientifically based rebuttal to the Evolutionary Theory - I was sorely disappointed. Behe regularly misquotes statements and misrepresents data which doesn't do much to help his argument. What disappoints me even more are the number of people who will undoubtedly read this book without doing any research of their own to fact-check.

+15869,2,well organized summary of Freud's work,"As would be expected, the Ego, Superego, and Id are prominent players in Professor Hall's summation of Freudian theory. A less well known facet of Freudian principles, the role of psychic energy in the development of personality, is prominently featured; Hall labels this Freud's most brilliant discovery. Thought it is a slim volume, the information is dense. The entire body of Freud's work that Hall is summarizing was originally published in several thousand pages. To attempt to highlight the more important passages would result in the entire text colored in yellow highlighter. In short, the book itself is a well-organized, clearly presented set of notes on Freudian theory."

Save your money...the slingshot is not nearly powerful enough to send this bag more than a few feet, especially when weighed down by the rope and saw. Throwing the bag by hand is more effective.When throwing the bag, be sure not to catch the metal hook on your finger, or it will cut you.After several attempts at throwing the bag over a 40 ft high limb, I instead got the weighted bag and rope wrapped around a limb of a different tree, and couldn't get it loose. I ended up just cutting both trees down with a chainsaw to be done with it.It seems like a good idea in theory, but it didn't work out for me."
+15872,1,Weird,"I rather generously gave this CD 2 stars due to the talents of the best in the genre. My argument is that the sountrack is somewhat between pseudo-authentic and slick Nashville. I do not believe that the majority of the soundtrack was consistent with the tenor of the film. There is a plethora of music available that is good old-timey or slick made to sell. This seemed like a hodgepodge thrown together because some people believe that a soundtrack must accompany a movie. I realize that tracks containing cylinder recordings of authentic British Isles music would be a hard sell. I think the CD should be entitled ""Contemporary Adaptations of Original Folksongs"". At least that would be more honest. After viewing the film, my expectations of the CD were not realized."
+15873,2,The First (and Best) of Brosnan's Bond Outings,"Propelled by Martin Campbell's vigorous direction and Pierce Brosnan's stylish debut as 007, ""GoldenEye"" (1995) is solid Bond all the way. Terrific action scenes, memorable villains and Judi Dench's revitalized M are among the film's trump cards. Tina Turner's classic title song outshines a lackluster score by Eric Serra. It's a shame that Brosnan's remaining 007 installments failed to match the high standards of his first adventure."
+15874,1,Not her best,"So far I have read all of Danielle Steel's books and have kept every single one of them in hardcover. I look forward to reading Impossible and Miracle soon. But I just didn't care for the character of Fiona at all. Not my type of person so I didn't care for reading about her at any cost. I loved the character of John; he's a doll! Fiona was nothing but a self centered, self absorbed woman who thought only of herself and how she can constantly benefit herself. I have no idea what John saw in her; I guess it was her beauty. Talk about total opposites! I don't blame his daughters for disliking her! The other women in Danielle's books were much nicer and had much better personalities. Because of Fiona, I didn't enjoy the book at all. I couldn't wait to finish it. I was hoping that he would leave her altogether and find someone more to his liking. Unfortunately he stuck by her."
+15875,1,Burned my cookies!! YUCK!!!!,"After reading the reviews I thought this set would be perfect for baking my daily supply of chocolate chip cookies for the kids. I have been using a Pampered Chef stone (which is heavy) along with a sheet of parchment paper. The cookies always came out perfect...but I was tired of dealing with the hot and heavy stoneware. Well, I was very impressed with the weight of the pans. It did not warp like my other cheapy ones. Unfortunately, my cookies turned out very, very brown on the bottom and around the edges....just the way we hate them to be!!! I even put 2 layers of parchment underneath and adjusted the cooking time!! Now I'm back to using the Pampered Chef stone. I haven't used the pans for anything else just yet but hopefully I will have a better experience with another recipe....other than cookies. Also, they were too big to fit inside my top oven properly but worked in my bottom oven. Be sure to measure before you buy."
+15876,2,Excellent reference for experienced programmers,"This is the most comprehensive and up-to-date reference book on C++ I have seen so far. I had a bacground in C; I have been programming in C++ for about a year now and whenever I need to look up a feature, it is there, well explained and illustrated with examples. Even some issues discussed in Meyers' book are dealt with. Wonderful. A reminder though: This is a serious book for serious programmers. Not a beginners' book. For the start, get another book (such as Practical C++ Programming by Oualline) to get you going and then pick up this one. You will be glad that you did."
+15877,1,"Kindle errors... Really, people","Wonderful, fabulous stories. Willis never disappoints. I wish the same could be said of the Kindle store version of this otherwise amazing collection: the amount of typos and errors are beyond belief. Makes for an extremely distracting read... The works of this talented author deserve better. I'm very disappointed an Amazon for this sloppy work.-------------Update: The situation was made worse by the idiotic response email that came from Amazon in response to my complaint - which made it clear that the customer ""service"" representative didn't actually read my email. Just adds insult to injury. Thanks so much."
+15878,1,hot air brush????,"I was looking for a hot air brush and this item was listed in that category, so this is not what I thought it would be....quite disappointingSunBeam SBPC11 Inch Brush Iron"
+15879,2,Solid,"For $2 how can you complain? Very solid... fit bottom of my dutch oven nicely which is why I bought it. Little higher off the bottom of the pot than I would like... but very solid and keeps my roasts etc.. up, out of the grease."
+15880,1,Awful,"First of all this movie should never have been given a ""G"" rating. It's dark, depressing, and has some very intense scenes. I wish I would have rented it first, I never would have bought it. I am seriously thinking of returning it. Terrible. Not even close in quality to the first two Toy Story movies. Again, to parents and grandparents, this is a very dark Toy Story. Scary and depressing."
+15881,2,Good assortment of movies,I purchased this as a gift because my brother was seeking one of these movies which is now out of print. But as a group this is a great deal especially for the price. You can't go wrong on this one.
+15882,2,"Outstanding, gribbing, tale of epic portions.","After meeting him in person in South Africa just last week I found myself engrossed in the most dramatic piece of writing I have read since the Thorn birds. Nelson Mandela should be awarded the nobel prize for his achievements. Never in my life have I been taken more by a book, capivited by it's spirit, and enchanted by it's depth and simplicity."
+15883,2,I bring you the Ventures.,"This CD features two albums by the Ventures.Underground Fire was released in 1969. It featured a very different sound for the Ventures, as they adopted more of a late-'60s hard rock sound. This was also the first Ventures album to features the Ventures originals on one side and the covers on the other side. The original tunes really rock, and the cover versions of hits like ""Born to be Wild"" are good, too. This is one of the Ventures best albums, in my opinion.Hollywood Metal Dinamic Sound 2000 was released in 1975 in Japan only (on cassette only). The story goes that the Ventures recorded the backing tracks for an album by a Japanese rock and roll singer. That album flopped and the Ventures backing tracks later came out as an album without the singer's vocals. The material mostly consists of cover versions of '50s rock and roll classics. While it's not as good as Underground Fire, it's still a solid Ventures album.Ventures fans should enjoy this CD."
+15884,1,Annoying,"Maybe this show appeals to some people, but to me the characters seem like a bunch of annoying, whiny retards. I can't stand the voices of the main actors - two of them shriek rather than talk. Rather than provide comedy that everybody can enjoy, Will & Grace revolves around cliches and gay sex jokes. Debra Messing is the only salvation in the show, but she's not enough to save bad comedy."
+15885,2,Good resource,"Bought this as a resource for our annual Haiti trips. While it's not a primary volume, it contains alot of good information that could be useful in many situations. Every rural family probably ought to have a copy."
+15886,2,Another good game...,I played the demo for this game and it was good. the main person in the game is Tidus (but you can name him any way you want). the battle system is cool. and when you sumon a monster instead for the sumon doing just 1 attack (like FF7) the sumon stays in the battle(the sumon does go away when it dies). but once again the cussing kept me from giving it a 5. the graphics are very good. the miny games (like Blitz ball) are fun but they can get fustrating. over all it's a fun game.
+15887,1,Doesn't fit all the car seats.,I was disappointed that when we got the stroller and where trying to put it together it broke. I was concerned that if it broke while putting it together what will happen when we had our baby in it. So we are returning it.
+15888,1,Good Idea -- Wish It Worked,"A mosquito/bug repellent that's safe, nontoxic, easy to use, has an inoffensive odor, and covers enough area for a table or a hammock: I was sold. Unfortunately, this device doesn't seem to repel anything! I tested the Bite Shield in my garden on a warm afternoon. As the mosquitoes buzzed around my face and swarmed my bare arms and legs, I held the device a few inches in front of me and turned it on. I could hear the fan (very quiet) and smell the geraniol (not unpleasant), but the mosquitoes were absolutely unfazed. They continued to swarm, including in the immediate vicinity of the Bite Shield, and bit me numerous times -- even on the hand that was holding the device! The packaging states that geraniol is 400% more effective than citronella. Well, 400% times zero still equals zero. Very disappointing. I have returned the item, and will use my refund to buy some Calamine lotion."
+15889,2,had to even rebuy it,This was one of the first books I bought for our 1 year old and he loooooved it. Unfortunatly so did our cats and they distroyed it so I had to rebuy it and it is soooo worth it. Great value and our son still loves it. These books are great learning material and fun and also easy to handle (and durable if you dont have my crazy cats).Can only recommend it!
+15890,1,A step up from Country Grammar,"First off, I AM NOT A NELLY FAN! I do not think he can rhyme, nor does he rhyme over good beats. He is P. Diddy and Ja Rule with an accent. This is much better than his first album, but that was horrible as well. Nelly said something in his song #1; is there a such thing as real hip hop? No. Is there a such thing as good music? Yes, and this doesn't qualify as either. Buyer beware."
+15891,1,This text is terrible!,"This textbook is outdated. Notice the 1980s pictures on the cover. Not only are the photographs terribly outdated, the section on research does not acknowledge the existence of the internet, and the section on visual aids is oblivious to the existence of any technologies such as PowerPoint. Additionally, the activities included in both the teacher and student texts are more appropriate to middle school than high school and in many cases are completely irrelevant."
+15892,1,FUSE problem,"I have this TV for 12 months and had to replace the fuse twice. NOT acceptable. buyers, Pass your way."
+15893,2,R. Subia,"Great Story! Many could say, a life changing chain of events that can be related to. I was happy to see that this movie has finally been released in DVD format and made available for all to see. Most definitely worth buying, sharing and kept for reference; so we don't forget what it was like, what happened and what it's like today!"
+15894,2,True Calling's Back In 2005!,"We fans are treated to a wonderful first season. Not to fear, the show along with FOX's 24 is coming back in 2005. We'll learn more in the second season about who Tru Davies is and why she has this special gift to give a second chance to those who died. Its a powerful piece of mythology in that all of us wish we could rewind the hands of time and get to see loved ones and friends one more time. I give it 4 instead of 5 stars simply that this being the first season, not all of the story threads have been worked out. Hopefully that will all change next year."
+15895,1,Sending it back,"Panasonic is always a good name to rely on, but this massager is just not for me. I ordered it partly because of the brand name, but mostly for that peculiar little hook, which I was hoping would dig into this one spot on the top of my shoulder, which I press into with my thumb for pain relief.Hard to tell in the picture, but this machine is really huge and too heavy and cumbersome for me to use. I have a torn rotator cuff in my right shoulder, and I normally wake up at 2 or 3 a.m. in a lot of pain. Because it is my right shoulder, I have to use the massager with my left hand, and it is really very awkward for me. Plus, that little hook does not quite fit into that painful spot on top of my shoulder. Also, it is quite noisy, although I imagine that is a situation with most of this type of product.Am ordering, instead, a smaller cordless version in another brand, and will keep on trying until I find the one that helps dispel the pain that wakes me up in the middle of the night."
+15896,1,Not satisfied,"I felt like I was tricked when buying this dvd. It says the complete series but it's only disc 1 of 4. How would I know how many discs there are suppose to be. Not to mention, I wasn't sent a backing slip so that I could return it."
+15897,2,12-/volt cordless modification for motorcycle travel,"If your looking for a motorcycle pump for travel, this is a good one. Strip it all apart. Remove the plastic casing and trash it, pull out the guts, tape the start button to the motor, add alligator clips to end of wires, and you have a compact motorcycle travel pump just in case of a flat."
+15898,1,Piece of garbage...don't waste your money...,"very poorly designed, stopped working within the first month. cheap plastic internal pieces that broke easily. Upon opening the device it was apparent why it broke, the pieces used to make it are fragilely thin."
+15899,2,A MUST READ FOR EVERYONE!!!,"Besides the Bible, this is a MUST READ for everyone, especially these days. William Cooper was a man of integrity, a man who served his country in Navy Intelligence. Later he discovered the truth about many things, one got the sense he would rather not know.But he TRULY died for his country!! READ THIS BOOK!!! It will confront, challenge and frighten you but it's information to ponder and remember.God bless you all."
+15900,1,No cable/ satellite box... don't buy!,"So, I got this upconverter/recorder to give as a christmas gift. It doesn't record if you do not have a cable/satellite box. Otherwise, the upconverting works good... If you do have a cable/satellite box I suggest you purchase and HDMI cable for the best picture."
+15901,2,Good L.J.,"Good early EP from Luscious Jackson, a favorite of mine. I didn't even know about this until people here recommended it.Thanks. I love all that Groovy-Girl New York stuff anyway. So pick it up.Good record."
+15902,2,really shouldn't be classified as a toy,"I am using this item to be creative and as far as the stars go, they ask how durable and how much fun. These are not valid questions for this product as far as I'm concerned because it is what I will make out of it that matters. In short I think this product is a good product"
+15903,2,flatware storage,I was looking for a minimal space storage for silverware we inherited from my mother in-law. I wanted to be able to access it easily as well as have it not tarnish. I am very pleased with how this product works. I can put it in a closet out of the way yet get to it easily. This was a great transaction!
+15904,2,Wonderful,"I keep wondering how the writers can hold their audiences year after year, but they do it somehow. This is seriously the best there is on television."
+15905,1,Victim of the Tedious World,"With so many positive reviews and spectacular title, I decided to give this book a chance. What a waste of my time. The characters are all so flawed that I couldn't find any sympathy or understanding for them. Nothing glimmers in this story. If it were a color it would be grey. If it were a car it would be a Ford Escort. If it were a TV show it would be cancelled."
+15906,1,"Cute, but destroyed quickly","My Border Collie really loved this toy, however, he had the squirrels out in seconds. After getting the squirrels out he proceeded to tear up every one of them quickly. Finally, he ripped the tree to shreds. So, if your dog is rough on toys this is not for you. It's too bad because it is a cute idea and a cute toy. If they made a sturdier version I would buy again."
+15907,1,"The lighst go out, very quickly.","I bought the Polar Express along with some tracks and and this crossing for my four year old. The concept is great and the workmanship is very nice. The only problem, and it is a big one -- The poles come out at the joint even with a slight touch and the connecting wires break and, the lights go out. One could still play the sound but the repair of the wires is impossible because the way they are made. All in all, it is not worth the $60 that I spent."
+15908,1,Smell from Phaser irritates my asthma,I just bought a Phaser solid ink printer. It smells like crayons. I will have to return it because everytime it goes on it aggravates my asthma. Do not buy this for a small office or one without constant ventilation.
+15909,2,Good Game But very short,"I am a big Zelda fan and when i found out Minish Cap was out, i was really excited. The Minish Cap is a great game that is just a very short. the Kinstone fusion adds to the value but in the end i beat the game in 3 days. The graphics are great, the sound is good but is not like the other games in the serious. the gameplay is good with the shrinking and the puzzles are at a good difficulty. The problem is that it is short. Buy this game"
+15910,1,not as good as in the picture,"It looks like it was Made in China, which it is! some products are made in China, but look very nice, not this one."
+15911,2,My co-workers noticed the difference!,"I'm late 50's with fine hair, which has been thinning. I saw Jason's shampoo at Earth Fare and decided to give it a try. I used it for the first time this morning, and I agree with other raters than it doesn't lather well and the smell leaves a lot to be desired. I found myself using more shampoo because I didn't feel the shampoo was well distributed. It rinsed very well but left my hair feeling stripped. I used a conditioner and styled my hair as usual. It looked nice but I didn't actually see any difference. However,at work today, several co-workers mentioned how much body my hair had and how great it looked.What can I say to that? I picked up the conditioner during lunch ..."

+15913,1,Just listen to the radio show.,I listen to Dr Laura on the radio. I was disapointed in two of her books because they were mostly just her calls in printed form. Very little guidance from someone that has a lot of schooling of relationships.
+15914,2,Downing of TWA Flight 800,Absolutely amazing. Surprising that out government would & does go to great lengths to be so mysterious and untruthful to its citizens.
+15915,1,Very crap,"The standard of poetry used by Kim to put forward his bigoted ideas is pathetically poor. His command of the English language is hopeless, I can only assume that he is a non-native speaker. Kim's poems are a bit like an old and bitter mans rants. The poems are awkward to read because they simply fail to flow. The messages portray Christianity as a violent religion, which is probably true when you consider how they behaved in the crusades. The most offensive message conveyed within these poems is the one that Abdul picked upon i.e. the idea that Christianity is superior to all other faiths. This idea is simply nonsense, afterall, Islam is the fastest growing religion whilst Christianity is fading away.If you want to read good poems then this is not the book for you."
+15916,2,Artistry that transcends,"WOW! This CD has a groove that is the very essense of good times -- a lingering frangrance that brings memories of pleasure and relaxation. I spin this in my office, while driving, while house cleaning... My day is be energized. The CD reminds me I am one step closer to THE BEACH. ""Which way to the beach, Frank?"" Take me along!"
+15917,2,Entertaining,"I found this book to be very entertaining. I would definetly recommend this book to every woman who enjoys riding motorcycles. Thank-you Shirley for putting this together, I have enjoyed your latest book."
+15918,1,Small type,"My review centers on only one thing - the type size. This edition is disappointingly and, in my humble opinion, unnecessarily small. Increasing the type size a point or two would move the edition from unreadable to readable and, at most, increase the book length by about a hundred pages. Since it is currently at almost 500 pages, I feel quite certain the binding could accommodate another 100 pages with no problem.What makes it all the more frustrating is that the type itself is a nice clean face that wouldn't require a magnifying glass if it was just a little larger.I really don't believe Our Lord meant for us to suffer eye strain to read His word; nor do I think He wants us to carry around large books when small books with readable type would serve the (His) purpose."
+15919,1,nice idea,"I was so excited about being able to swim with music. I have been waiting for this type of product for a long time. .. I have been swimming with these earphones with my waterproof shuffle daily for a week. When any water enters my ears, it is so muffled that it is impossible to listen and swim at the same time. I have spent well over half hour per day to improve this problem. silicone gel, swimcap pulled over my ears... nothing stops the water from entering. I talked to customer support who was nice, but admitted that it was a common problem fro real swimmers. "" These were not designed for lap swimmers, it was made for being in the pool"" He seemed like the reurn was no problem as long as it was within 30 days. I like the cord length. Anything longer would interfere with swimming. I wear my shuffle on my arm, though. If you want it any other place(like on waist) I could see how that wold be problematic."
+15920,2,This CD by Myriam Hernandez is exquisitly crafted: a jewel !,"Myriam Hernandez has created a masterpiece with her latest album; ""Todo el Amor"" is a beautiful piece of art, and a showing of Spanish romantic love songs at its very best. Some songs are especially remarkable, such as ""Deseo"" by Monica Naranjo, and that Myriam Hernandez interprets with a peculiar blending of erotic yet romantic song to her lover. Most impressing of all, is a song written for a woman and sung by a wonderful singer. ""Huele a Peligro"" is a sure hit, and ""No Puedo Olvidarte"" is an ode to a long-gone yet unforgivable love. In a nutshell, this album will remain a best-seller and a classic for years to come. I highly recommend this elegant piece of romantic pop by a remarkably mature yet sensitive artist."
+15921,2,Great!,it in the wrapper and shipped fast! My son really loved the movie and I try to buy him new ones. The price was very helpful thanks alot!
+15922,2,"A Labor of Love, Worthwhile to all students of American History","Definately the untold story of slavery in America and the Western World. Olexer gives us the history, peppered liberally with text from original documents, showing that our roots of slavery are much deeper than we are commonly taught.The writing is easy to read, but painful to acknowledge. While Olexer gives us an unvarnished piece of our history, she never devolves into sermonizing or shaming the reader. We are left to make our own conclusions and search our own souls, which is always far more disturbing."
+15923,2,"Great album for King's X fans, but buy Gretchen first!","As a big King's X fan, I love this album. I discover something new every time I listen to it, but it isn't the album a new listener should buy first. The single"" It's Love"" I'm sure drew in new fans, but the rest of the album is so unconventional that it is misleading. Don't you just love the riffs in ""We were born to be loved""? Make no mistake that this is a great album, but buy ""Gretchen goes to Nebraska"" (their finest album to date) first."
+15924,1,Poor casting; lousy stands,"Along w/ everyone else here, I purchased these miniatures, thinking they would be up to snuff quality-wise w/ the WOC trade name. No go! The detail on the pewter is questionable, and the plastic stands were loose/wobbly or otherwise wouldn't fit. Going to have to resort to something else... glue maybe. Likewise, one of the characters had a shield broken off. Not a very happy camper."
+15925,1,What were they thinking?,"ELP are one of my favorite bands, but even I don't have to like this contractual-obligation quickie taped between tanning sessions in the Bahamas. Pete Sinfield's lyrics are good for a laugh, at least, but the biggest one is the front cover photo--did these guys really think they were sex symbols? (It is instructive that Carl Palmer, always the most circumspect member of the group, posed with his shirt buttoned.) It's not all awful--""Canario"" is actually one of ELP's more respectful covers of a classical piece--but ""Brain Salad Surgery"" or ""Tarkus"" cut it to ribbons."
+15926,2,Love Is Not a Game: (But You Should Know the Odds),"I think I am like most people. I live on Earth, not Mars or Venus. This book is the most inciteful guide to the realities of beginning and maintaining a loving relationship. The 'double sixes' analogy is clever and very accurate. A simple, helpful and fun read!Thanks!"
+15927,1,Leakage,"This blender started out great...then it began to leak from the base of the pitcher. The way it is designed makes it nearly impossible to tighten the nut to prevent the leak. The cost to replace the pitcher/blade assembly is equal to about 50% of the original purchase price. Poor, poor design. I was a KitchenAid admirer but no longer. This is a simple fix. SHAME ON KA FOR NOT REMEDYING THIS PROBLEM. DESPITE ITS STRONG MOTOR IT IS WORTHLESS WHEN YOUR KITCHEN COUNTER IS A SOAKING MESS EVERY TIME YOU USE IT. I DO NOT RECOMMEND."
+15928,1,New plastic-y carafe doesn't work well,"One of the problems with coffee presses is that the carafes are prone to breakage. The new ones with the plastic-y, break resistant carafe do not fit the plunger as precisely as the old fashioned glass ones did. Coffee spurts out while pressing and grounds get into the finished product. I took the first one back, but this one does the same thing, so now I just make coffee in the sink."
+15929,2,It comes pretty close to having EVERYTHING!,"This is the first book review I've written, and I'm doing it because this book is great! When I want to know how to cook something, it is here. This book is more complete than my Fanny Farmer cookbook, and much more down-to-earth than the Joy of Cooking. Gives some great shortcuts. Written clearly and simply. If I had to throw out all my cookbooks except one, this would be the one!"
+15930,2,great product easy to use and very well made,very good product. We can't complain this could be a little taller because it packs very light and portable. Great buy.
+15931,1,"Good stuff, but packaging bad","I really love this productor and amazon offer cheap price and free shipping. it makes my life easy. But the customer service is not good. i order whole case of this productors last weekend, but i can't get them on time. Because the poor packaging, the UPS refused to delieve to me, i've been told that it had been damaged. so, UPS mailed them back to sender.So, when you wanna order this online, you have to think about shipping issues first. Otherwise, you will feel disappointed like me......"

He gets away from his handler and ends up with an specially nice father and daughter who take him in and helps him become a human being once again until his handler finds him again. You keep rooting for Jet Li and in the end he learns the truth of what happened to him and to his mother. He finally gets free to be himself. Brought tears to my eyes at the end.

+15934,2,Why it's a 5 star!!!,"This CD tells what Incubus is all about. With an amazing voice of the narrator it will capture anyone and keep them listening to the CD. However it is not interesting just because of that, it really brings out the escence of what is Incubus. From the day of their formation trhough their struggles, the outcome is surely victory. So in short words, this is an amzing book brought to life, by the use of imagery, appealing to the senses and triggering the imagination in the mind."
+15935,1,Not bad but not what I expected,"I have seen bettter and I expected better. The concept was good, but the first story was done already. The animation in one made him look to young. A problem I have with anime all the characters look like teenagers even the characters who you know are or should be older. Some of the animation looks as if a child did it. I know it is a matter of taste it just wasn't mine. Anyway I could say more but my overall suggestion, save your money, wait for it to come on the Cartoon Network or WB. Just my opinion....8]"
+15936,2,very good camera!,"I think that canon is the best make of cameras,i have had other ones but canon are far superior.this particular camera is of excellent quality.the only thing is that i would like a 3 inch screen but the photos come out great and i would recomend this canon powershot"
+15937,1,Thumbs down..,"Well... What can i say, its disposable music. The lyrics are lacking in any sense of intelect, Really doesnt give you anything to think about. The music is the same punky pop power chords riffed over, and over, and OVER. The songs are very repetative, and if you like music this band doesnt give much. Nothing very unique or special, which is probably why they are so underground... they dont deserve much else. Go pick up an album like Master of puppets, by metallica... its worth your money. Sugarcult is bottom of the barrel punk."
+15938,1,mediocre,"Two great hits, filled with one or two other mediocre songs, and 8 or 9 disposable, filler songs. I like KT, but she even tries to sing a song not within her vocal abilities. Beautiful song, that she doesn't quite sing right. It is also greatly underproduced (except for the two hits).Get the singles, forget the album."
+15939,1,Refill & squirt location could hardly be worse...,"Bought this for the same price at a brick & morter store. I was looking forward to using it. But it's clear no one ever tried to use it after designing it.The soap chamber is managed through a rubber stopper (see the black in the middle of the handle,) that isn't held in by anything other than a very low tension rubber stopper. So what happens when you go to use this brush? One of three things:1) You pull open the rubber stopper and the soap comes out all over the place.2) You push the rubber stopper and soap is squirted out when you don't want it to be.3) You hold the brush above the stopper, awkward or you hold the brush below the stopper, awkward.Maybe the palm brush is better laid out.There should be a screw top for the soap chamber and button to squirt the soap out shouldn't be where you're going to hold the handle to wash dishes.Very disappointing."

+15941,1,You can pass on this one.,"I'm sorry, but I simply cannot share in the praise that others are heaping on this book. The story started out fairly well, but it dropped off the deep end after the first quarter of the book. I just couldn't follow it; I forced myself to read another 50 pages before I gave up & put it away. Sorry, but I was hoping for more."
+15942,1,Serious failure!,"It is extremely true that NOTHING cheap is good!! (Not sure if that's actually a saying, but it is now.) Right outta the box, it SUCKED! Wouldn't hold a charge, wouldn't even register electricity! My phone cried after the experience. Do NOT, I repeat, DO NOT, I repeat one more time, DO! NOT! select this product. Not entirely sure about the vendor, either. Feast."
+15943,1,Where is the 0 stars option?,Possibly the worst book I have ever read on Australia and clearly the worst in this otherwise good series. So outdated it's not funny. I am sure most of the book was written from the perspective of 1960's Perth (read 2012 Perth) without due regard to the the large and culturally diverse eastern cities.How the publishers let down their guard and permitted this piece of fiction pass as readable is beyond me?Rubbish!
+15944,2,Great book.,"This book reminded me of A Beautiful Mind, in that it helped me develop a deeper understanding of how somone with Schizophrenia might be feeling and how it is for families to have a member with this illness."
+15945,2,A new beginning...,"This was their first true recording project, although it was thier second full album. I give this album four stars, because, though I love this album and this band, Five stars would mean it's an album that stands next to Physical Graffitti, the White Album, and a select few other records. This album is a must own for fans who enjoy any of the splinter disciplines of what Sabbath, Hendrix, and Zeppelin started. An album worth the money, with many great songs and performances. If there are any criticisms, one would be the production. It leaves some room for improvement. Beyond that, I hope this band can continue to build upon this awesome release for years to come. Purchas and enjoy!"
+15946,2,Great CD! Bring on Volume 2,"While this is not officially King Crimson, it's definitely a must for any Crimson fan. This is even a great jazz CD for those who aren't (yet) fans of KC. I really enjoy the very melodic fretless bass guitar. I definitely hope they stay together and record a Volume 2. I'd love to hear some more arrangements from the '80s Fripp/Belew/Bruford/Levin line up as well as the '90s Double Trio."
+15947,1,Cheap Bulb,"The light is cute, and it was mickey mouse like I wanted. This light also got so hot that the bulb went out in an hour. This light was intended for my son's room, but wont work for that if it wont stay lit. The seller was quick though."
+15948,2,Great for learning or reviewing spanish.,"I bought this Spanish III without buy Spanish I and II. I studied spanish 30 years ago but never spoke it much. I had to guess whether or not this Spanish III was at my level. I got lucky because it is perfect for my level. It covers the many tenses of grammer, while using common verbs and expressions to form the dialogs.In the past I have purchased 2 other Pimsleur audio products, include Chinese. I have found them all to be excellent products and highly recommend them to others. My immediate goal is to service spanish speaking customers at my work."
+15949,1,Not for the faint of heart,"I rented this movie years ago. I fell for the ""Banned in 26 countries"" label that was on the box. It warns you about scenes of total barbarianism that will be difficult to watch. The only thing difficult was keeping myself from laughing most of the time.A group of scientists are in the tropical rainforest when they stumble upon a couple of criminals on the run. (They do not know this, of course). Somehow they find themselves captured by a tribe living in the jungle and they are subjected to torture and violent death.These ""scenes"" are for the most part pretty awfully shot. But if you need to know what is in this.......a tribe member eating a huge live larva, a guy getting part of his head chopped off, another becoming a permanent poster boy for birth control, and a woman who is hung by her breasts on a couple of steel hooks.If this sort of thing is entertainment to you, go for it. It will come with the usual bad acting, awful music, and incredibly bad camerawork."
+15950,1,Even a casual fan will be disappointed,"If all you want is a collection of Fleetwood Mac's hits this one's fine. All the hits are here (from 1975-1988) and if that's all you expect from a greatest hits collection, you won't be disappointed. But even a casual fan of the band (like me) found this to be a little less than I expected. The liner notes are the pits; a behind the scenes look at a 1988 concert (w/o Buckingham) with no insight into the songs in the collection. There aren't even songwriter credits (although there are production credits)! I'm not reviewing the songs here, but the packaging. I feel a band that is this talented and popular deserves a better package for their best material."
+15951,1,Not all it's cracked up to be,"Levy wants to be an important feminist, and she's not even close. She's not even in Naomi Wolf territory. She gets milage out of stating the obvious. Who doesn't know that women look at themselves as sex objects? Women's Studies 101 students could write this book. Someone must be looking on her well to have given her all this attention for a book that doesn't add anything important to cultural debate."
+15952,2,A fantastic trip thru classical and trad English/Irish music,"Would have rated album 5 stars, but for the lack of adequate documentation of the music on it, a shortcoming of many soundtrack albums! Otherwise, a very enjoyable album. It must be noted that some of the classical selections are adaptations of the original pieces. For example, the Schubert trio is significantly different than the original composition. As for the Vivaldi ""E minor cello concerto"", or whatever it is, I have not been successful in finding the original composition on disc, even after an exhaustive search on amazon.com. The 4-volume set of Vivaldi cello concerti on the Naxos label, which I just purchased, claims to be relatively complete, yet does not contain this composition. Can anyone out there help?"
+15953,1,CHEAP,"cheap product. very disappointed. after using for a short time, the plastic cover broke, the pastic threads on the cap wore and no longer attached properly, and the piece that keeps the water inside kept falling off into the water chamber. i ended up buying a nebulizer and it works much better."
+15954,2,king of the blues - here's proof,"If you can't afford the five B.B. King live disks recorded between 1964 and 1972, pick up this terrific set. The first disk is sensational, 70 minutes of prime B.B. King blues. It starts out hot and just builds; several of the greatest blues guitar performances ever are heard en route. The final tracks from his trip to Japan are truly incendiary.The second disk is a little less interesting but worth an occasional hearing; there are guest stars and symphony orchestras and the Crusaders and less intense blues music."
+15955,2,keeping this for the rest of my life here!!!,"I absolutely love this book. I am a Christian that is on fire for God and even this sparked a new fire, gave me new truth and helped me see what the Lord wants for us right now. As soon as I got this book, I started witnessing with it, esp. those that say they live for God, but are still living in the world. Beautiful book. Must share and must keep!!! Fabulous. I didn't even need to get past pg 100 for me to decide I was keeping this one :D I take it with me to read when I have any spare moment! Glory be to God. I am thankful for His final warning given through this book and allowing me to read it. Knowing more about what He wants for us makes it more of a reality to me and made me that much happier! :D"
+15956,1,Defective product declared unreturnable!,"Loved flip flops and have many, used these lightly one summer and the strap pulled out of the sole? Company, Shoes.com, returned them to me, stating they could not ""re-sell"" them. Well duh, they were defective. FYI, This is not a stand behind it LLBean type company."
+15957,1,Short range phone,"I've always had Panasonic phones and in general they've been sturdy and made well. This tri-portable phone set is very light weight but has all the basic functions as described. However, other than the main station the remaining two chargers are so light and flimsy as to easily fall off a night table. That's not such a big deal but I wish the bases were weighted down in some way. In any event my only serious concern is the severe distance restriction these phones seem to have. One phone is in my home office right next to the front door yet I cannot take the portable handset more than ten feet out the front door! (My old portable phone worked to the end of the driveway.) In fact, there have been a few times when I have had no signal at all between the base and the handset right at my desk -- a distance of 2.5 ft.! Therefore, I would not recommend this phone as apparently any distance can be a problem."
+15958,1,High Maintenence,The problem with this device is that the ball is very smooth and will slip if it gets the least little bit of grease on it from a skin cream or even eating a potato chip. I use the mouse all day and had to switch to a trackball to avoid repetition injury. The only other mouse I've used is Logitech which is an optical mouse and requires no reqular cleaning. I'd definitely not buy Microsoft if you're a heavy user.
+15959,1,Does not work with WD type weather direct products,"The low rating is for the product description, not the product!My WD-3103U (obtained at Costco) lost its sensor, so I ordered this thinking it would work because the writeup said ""The TX6U transmitter works with all La Crosse Technology models except for ""The Professional Weather Center"" Series: WS-2010, WS-2210, WS-2310, WS-2315 and WS-2510.""Since my model wasn't specified here, I thought it would work. It didn't.LaCrosse tech support said ""Only the TX50 will sync to the Weather Direct displays."""
+15960,2,Great tool for just around house,"I like the saw alot. The only issue was mine had a broken plastic piece where the battery goes in. I was able to bend it enough to get the battery to work, but other than that it was able to trim my trees with little effort."
+15961,1,JUST GIVE THIS ONE A MISS...TRUST ME.,No words can say how awful this album is. Just give it a miss..
+15962,2,Good effort,"I am a big Rendell fan -- she is probably the best mystery author ever -- and want to give this a positive evaluation. Written in 1976, Rendell has gradually become better and better. What stands out about this suspense novel is the gripping portrait of the sick central character. So psychological themes and portraiture are prominent. I read it within two days, so it is suspenseful. But I wouldn't say it is her best work. Well worth the read anyway."
+15963,2,Absolutely the most fun educational toy I have ever seen!,Every child who comes to our house & plays this game is hooked and asks to play next time. I am a teacher by profession and this is a very unintimidating logic & reasoning game (for all ages)- I would highly recommend! I have just ordered 5 more to give as x-mas gifts this year.

+15966,1,DO NOT BUY THIS PILLOW,"I bought this pillow as I have a bad lower back and being pregnant has made sleeping uncomfortable. This pillow is the LOWEST quality pillow I have EVER used. The filling is loose and the pillow does not keep it shape. It is very hard to ""fluff"" the pillow for use each night as it does not even distribute the filling. I HIGHLY recommend a regular well made body pillow if you are accustomed to higher quality pillow. I had really high hopes and was very disappointed."
+15967,1,"Not my favorite heating pad, sorry to say","This pad has only one heat setting and the massage unit is loud and ineffective. We've gone back to using our old standby unit that has to be at least 15 years old but has reliable, adjustable heat. This was a gift for my husband who was having back pain and I was embarrassed that it was so cheaply made."
+15968,2,Sigma Macro Telephoto Zoom lens,"I needed a zoom lens for some shots that I would be taking on a trip to Canada. When reading reviews on zoom lenses with a price range up to $300-$400 no lens seemed to stand out as ""the"" lens. Rather than make a really expensive mistake, I chose to go cheap and I'm very satisfied with my decision. I think that this lens is worth every penny. Several of the shots that I took (with this lens) on my trip are now postcards being sold in a local store. My only complaints would be that the images I took using the macro setting were not that impressive...they were nice images but the fine detail that I expect from a macro wasn't there. The other issue is that it's really easy to move the aperture ring which will make my digital SLR read ERROR if I am in Auto-focus and it took me a while to figure out what was going on."
+15969,2,Really great songs from a garage band!,"the songs on this CD are very good. I think this CD is better than the new one ""Static"" because here you will find more heart-felt emotions, and the sound has a more personal, stripped down feel. I especially like the song ""Perfect Family,"" it is one of my all-time favs!"
+15970,1,pretty good but....,"i use my computer for mostly games and also for typeing college papers. i dont know all of the techinical details about the product so i am gonna keep it simple. for the most part there is a big improvement from the privious versions. but i own about 50 or more PC games and when i upgraded, about all of them aren't compatible! 50 games is alot of money when your a college student! now all of my games are useless. when microsoft came out with the windows 98 upgrade all of my windows 95 games worked great. now they are useless. besides the fact of games and other programs not being compatible with it, it is a very nice program. If you are not a gamer this is highly recomended. If you are a gamer stick with windows 98, and/or windows ME."
+15971,1,I agree with the previous review,"The book isn't as broad in scope as I'd hoped, and I assumed it would have great photos, which it doesn't. Some good tips, but I'll take this book back to the store. Here's my recommendation: For Xmas I received The New Decorating Book, which gives me more help and also seems pretty focused on the way most of us decorate using the things we have-it is telling me how things go together, and it also has a realistic look and lots of big color pictures obviously taken in real homes."

+15974,2,Best book so far,"Great book, but be prepared, it's significantly longer than any of the other books and will take some time to get through, more bang for your buck I guess. It's a bit more mature and dark than the other titles as well, which is reasonable considering many children that grew up with the series are becoming more mature as well. J.K. Rowling has proven to be an excellent writer and makes the books accessible to younger readers but interesting for older readers (like myself) as well. Can't recommend it enough."
+15975,1,"solid construction, the strap connection makes it unwearable","The product looked and felt solid. I really was looking forward to using this. However once i put it on, I knew I could not keep it. There is a U shaped connection inbetween the arm straps that hits RIGHT at the back of my neck. As if I dont have enough neck/eyestrain problems from working in the tech field....lets put something poking you right there in the back of the neck, WITH WEIGHT.I HAD to return it...and now I am paying a boatload for shipping it back and waiting forever for it to repost to my account. Boo!"
+15976,1,Dissapointing,"I really WISH that when they make a movie from a book, they would follow the freakin' storyline! ""Sound of Thunder"" is a short story (about 30 pages I recall) by Ray Bradbury, I read it in high school a long time ago. You will not understand the title until the very last sentence - a classic Bradbury quirk. This movie is so loosly related to the original story it hardly deserves the title. Bradbury wrote this in the 1960's, about the time when the first theories and ideas about chaos theory and the ""butterfly effect"" were first being put forth. What really SUCKS is that this COULD have been an excellent movie! But it was mediocre at best. Acting, plot, special FX, everything could have been better. I will simply shelve it now along with my small but growing collection of other movies in this fascinating area, 3 total now, the other 2 being ""Butterfly Effect"" and ""Frequency"", both of which were very well done."

He's been around since the seventies,worked with Andrew Probert, Rick Sternbach and Lee Cole.Kind of wish he hadn't done this, contradicts some earlier work,however I ditto Alex Rozenswieg's comments earlier here."
+15978,2,The Best yet,"I have played many sims games but this is the best one yet. It has three expanshions/games on one disc. The Sims, Sim Creator and Sims livin large. There is a couple of great things about this game. 1.You don't need the orignal sims to install it on your computer. 2. It has the best selling exapnshin pack. 3. It has a creater you can create sim when your noy plaing,can use them in the game, plus you can make them as messed up as you want or as cool as you want. 4.If you get more expanshin packs you will only have to use the deluxe cd, (except sims unleashed). 5. It works with Windows XP. 6. It's fast to load to your computer. 7.)This has to do with #1, you can load on any expanshin pack and you won't need the sims because it has it on deluxe. 8. BECAUSE THIS GAME RULES.Take it from me I would know. (:-) P.S. Livin large is an expanshin pack."
+15979,1,"works great as a keyboard, fails miserably on range","First off, when used for what it's intended, it works fine. Using it on my PC in the basement is great. My original intent for this wireless keyboard was to control a HTPC I built that is about 5' away. Needless to say, I found that my range is literally 12"" or less with this combination. So if you don't need range, works great, mouse and keyboard. If you need range, wrong product. I'm still baffled to find any documenation which shows the range of this combination"
+15980,1,The worst piece of electronics I have ever owned.,"This product was given to me as a gift, bought ahead of time so the 90 days warranty had run out before I used it. The 1st time I used the CD player it broke. The transfer switches between CD, Radio, and Tape were always sloppy. Now after two months the power switch has developed a short.When you log on memorex.com you see a bunch of fluff but no real place to talk with what must be a small (if any) customer service department. Not only is this product a dog but I can't let anyone know about it at Memorex. There motto must now be ""Is It Alive at Memorex?"""
+15981,2,More luz needed,"Mellowman Ace offers an album of well above average rap and deserves to be more into the light and less in the darkness. However, he still under-uses his potential to produce genuinely innovative hispanic rap - a bit less Anglo and more 'raza' and he will be onto something. Nonetheless, this CD is well worth listening to in the meantime."
+15982,2,"Not his best, but good fare","I absolutely adored ROSE so I wouldn't have complained should he have kept writing in that vein. That said, I'm not about to complain about another Renko. Cruz Smith is up to his usual tricks, with smooth, engaging writing and a strong plot. Several details that made GORKY PARK and POLAR STAR so absorbing are missing a bit here, though, such as secondary and supporting characters as interesting and mysterious as Renko. Still and all, Havana's a lush, dramatic setting for this and I do think if you're a fan of his work there isn't too much to be disappointed about here.And if you're divided about whether to buy this or the new LeCarre, pick this one up."
+15983,1,a piece of useless junk,The reason this is so cheap is that it's just junk. There are no stickers included and the old pages won't even let you apply stickers from a newer source. should have been trashed rather than sold.
+15984,1,What a waste of time! Don't do it!,"Complete waste of time. Just go to your local store and buy an upgrade. I wish I too had read the reviews before buying. I could have purchased an off the shelf upgrade and been running the same day... but instead here I sit waiting for a $5 DVD to arrive, and not able to join the company domain. Windows ""Anytime"" Upgrade is not a misnomer! It may happen at ANY TIME (as long as you're not expecting it ANYTIME SOON!). It's been 18 days since I received ""Ship Notification"" and still nothing. Unbelievable."
+15985,2,"Great movies, great condition","Zatoichi is a great movie. I haven't watched Sonatine yet, but since Asano is a top-notch actor, I have high expectations. The set was received in perfect condition in a timely manner. A good purchase."
+15986,1,Completely worthless,"What a waste of money. Step One - The corkscrew goes in effortlessly ... then comes out effortlessly, leaving the cork right where it was. Now you have a cork with a hole in it. Keep trying until frustrated. Step Two - you use your old cork puller, and write a bad review on Amazon."
+15987,1,Don't waste your time or money,"I'm sure the information in this book is useful, but only if you're over 65, have kids, or need goverment assistance. Sure you can get free money for food he suggests signing up for food stamps. He also states money for rent, but it's through state run section 8 programs. I love the idea of if you need money to buy a house get a mortgage. Most of the information contained in this book is for families needing goverment aid or the elderly and most single people can't qualify for most of the programs. It's a great goverment phone number book but don't waste your cash most of what's in this book is common knowledge and there's no free gold at the end of the rainbow."
+15988,1,Not nearly as good as Elrod alone,"At one point in the book the evil bad guy, Charon, points out the many shortcomings of this book's hero, and all of it is true. Richard is over a thousand years old and was a champion fighter even before he acquired superhuman powers, but a drunken lout can whip his ass with no trouble. He is incompetent, boorish, not especially bright, and unscrupulous; and his vampire ""mother"" Lady Sabra is even more repellent--for instance she uses a human sacrifice for Richard's first feeding.The writing is bad, the period flavor of the period bits unconvincing (King Arthur tends to lead to problems of anachronism, but it could have been handled better) and the characters, ""good"" and bad alike, repulsive. This is far below the excellent standard Elrod achieves on her own."
+15989,1,Necessary but disappointing,"I've seen the first three movies in this saga, and this is my least favorite. If I hadn't read the book, I think I would have been completely lost. There was a lot of back story that wasn't addressed in the film, and the movie seemed disjointed. It is necessary to watch it to stay in the loop in the saga, but could have been made much better."
+15990,1,PATHETIC,"A pathetic excuse of what the author calls ""southern gothic."" He has taken local stories and lore from a small fishing village in northeast florida and tried to make money with these stories. He is so confused by the stories he attempts to write and instead of getting the stories right or correct, he goes off on all this violence, and lies, a muddles the true facts of actual history from the quaint little drinking village with a fishing problem. Don't waste your money on this garbage. He's not even from the little fishing village of mayport but lived outside the village on mayport road, but will tell you that he is, which is another embellishment to go along with all the other horse manure in his books and this one is just another of his trash in an attempt to make money. I also might add, the 2 star reviews and about are all friends of the author."

I use a Zio SD Card Reader to load up to 64 MB of maps and points of interest data from Magellan's newest street mapping software (as of 5-21-02) USA Streets & Destinations. The SD card works like a charm. On a recent trip I loaded maps (with street level detail) covering an area from Richmond, VA to Boston, MA. That filled the 64MB SD card. If you have a Magellan Meridian Model GPS you DO NOT need to pay Magellan's high price for SD memory. Buy SanDisk, save some money and HAVE FUN GPSing!"

+15993,1,not a good book if your child is not a math wiz,This is a terrible math book. There are very sparse explanations to help students or parents get help if they don't understand a topic. All the book consists of is a bunch of example problems. My daughter had a book from a different series/publisher in sixth grade that was great. The school switched to this series/book when she got to seventh grade. The seventh grade book (this one) was not at all helpful.

They've withstood banging, burning, dust, and stacking. I put everything in them clothing, tools, stationary, you name it. I like the stackability of the drawers along with the durability of the plastic they're made from. They stack well on carpet or bare floors. However, next time I may just get the doors with the shelves, but I'll like these."
+15995,2,For the Not so smart gamer,"This game looks very amazing, graphics are pretty darn stable, camera can be improved. Flows very smoothly. And for the uninformed reviewer who gave this a one star, the do play it before they review it. HAVE YOU EVER HEARD OF A BETA? I know alot more then you do about games, so beleive me, they test them before the review them. This game looks really good. One of the best single player games for Cube.(What I really have been waiting for.) Fun for everyone over 8 I would say.Buy it you will have a blast.(Seriously)"
+15996,1,Don't buy this,"What a turd. This thing will not hold an edge. Shoot, it won't even try to hold an edge. All it does is smash/mash anything we try to use it on. I hope to be able to return it for a full refund."

+15999,1,Begruzzled,"I am a 12-year-old Wiccan practitioner, and am hurt by the continuation of myth and legend throughout the Christian society today.

Arrived on time, easy to hang on wall. Only complaint is that it didn't come with mounting screws, but no big deal. I definitely recommend it."
+16001,2,Eye opener,"The author was write when she wrote you will laugh and cry. I laughed at how real and connected I felt to the people in her book that deal with toxic people. I came from the epitomy of toxic people ... I was born into it and although my mother strived to keep the people and attitudes away, a lot of how they evaluated me and thought of me and tore me down really was what I listened to. I found myself surrounded by toxins, you really get comfortable and start making excuses as to why... they are right that you are worthless and why you should just not even try to do anything you believe in. I read this book and it opened my eyes to realizing .. they aren't right! I am learning to not allow someone to debase me and starting to stop debasing myself also, I am someone to be believed in!"

It was great... very refreshing and not too sweet. The new re-introduced Zico in the Tetrapaks tastes nothing like the previous version. It has a somewhat strong syrupy sweet/sour taste that leaves a weird residue on your tongue. I came back to this product thinking that it would be the same as before they messed with it, but I think I'm done with Zico. I was getting shipments of O.N.E. (which is wonderful), but sadly they have been out of stock. I guess I will have to wait for them to restock again..."
+16004,1,I did not buy this,I did not buy this so i can not review it. Where does it show thaat I paid for this as I did no such thing
+16005,2,Incredibly useful...,"A friend recommended this to me, and I had no idea why. Sure, doing the robot would be interesting, but where would I ever use it?But now that I've watched it, I totally understand. For me, the specifics of actually doing the dance moves are secondary. What I found to be incredibly useful was the posture and muscle control the instructor teaches. Standing up straight and always being conscious of the tenseness of your muscles gives that air of confidence and power that is so handy in all areas of life - interviews, dating, etc.And not only will you control your muscles, you'll build them. While actually having a surprising amount of fun.This DVD may not have all the whooshes and fancy graphics of other instructional videos, but the content itself is great. I can't tell how much a dancer would get from it, but I definitely learned a lot."
+16006,2,Dolphin Shade,"If you like dolphins like I do, you will love this shade. The could be a little taller, but then I am a big windshield. Chevy Impala 2002"
+16007,2,Kindle l,"I chose to purchase a refurbished Kindle 1 because of the user replaceable battery and the sd card. It was so easy to figure out. I love to read but when I find I have time, I don't have a book...until now. Just over Christmas break, I've read two books."
+16008,1,Muy corta,"Es muy corta para observar todas las maravillas de las islas encantadas, es solo un grano de arena lo que editaron."
+16009,2,very please with it,bought it for diy works and for nite fish. Love it. nice and durable. and it's very bright! highly recommended.
+16010,1,Outdated and Simplistic,I found this book to contain outdated technological references and was about the level of a high school course
+16011,2,Excellent quality,"Returned this item as it was too large for my hallway. My fault because I didn't measure correctly, otherwise it is a good piece of furniture."
+16012,2,i love tiz album,"After Mariah Carey's new album release of ""The Emancipation of Mimi"" in 2005. This album impacted her life by helping her reach the top. Personally I love this album, I love her voice, her words and most importantly I love the lyrics. My reason for loving this album is very simple; it's mainly because I can personally relate to this album. Songs such as ""shake it off"", ""we belong together"", ""mine again"", ""one and only"", ""I wish you knew"" and many others. This already makes 5 songs out of the whole entire album. Therefore, this album did make it to my top of the list for the year of 2005."
+16013,2,FANTASTIC,"In this enthralling process, The Flecktone's Victor Wooten and the Dave Matthews Band's Carter Beauford, take you through the step by step process that they used in the studio to make the album, Yin Yang. Beauford's syncopated rhythms on the hihat are a perfect marriage with Wooten's percussive bass playing. It is great to see these two incredible performers strut their stuff together on camera. This video is well worth buying! Top Notch Material!!"
+16014,1,Snooze-o-rama,"If this were not Radiohead, nobody would be buying or listening to it. And that's a fact. That said, ""Optimistic"" is a great, great Radiohead song; the rest sounds like you're listening to a seashell or to white noise."
+16015,1,A rare failure from Palm,I am a huge Palm fan and use my VX religiously. But . . . this product is a disaster. The so-called color screen is so dull and lifeless that I couldn't tell that most screens were in color at all. I ordered the game and travel cards. The game card did not work at all. The travel card contained next to no useful information. Just an awful product.
+16016,2,Very Rare Richard,"This album represents the best audio documentation of LR's most under-reported and most amazing period in his career, with the exception of the '55 to '58 cataclysm: he made very few records from '68 to '70, his most intense ""Comeback"" period, when his voice was never stronger. (This was Comeback #2). Although the title says ""Mad Russian"" in '70, the contents are actually from that venue in 1968 AND from ""The Boston Tea Party"" in 1970. Highlights are ""The Girl Can't Help It"" and ""When The Saints Go Marching In"". Rating is just short of 5 because of the grainy, grimey sound on most of the '68 cuts."
+16017,1,Kindle Edition Has Issues,The Kindle Edition looks like it was quickly run through OCR software and published. Lots of misspellings and formatting issues. Fortunately I was able to return the book without issue. I'm sure that the print edition is great - like all of Ellis' books.
+16018,1,This book is for beginners,"As the title suggests, this book is strictly to be treated as a reference for synthesizer programming. I bought it thinking there would be examples and techniques on the subject, but was quite disappointed to find out that it only serves as a reference guide. Its good for beginners though!"
+16019,1,Nice idea - questionable reliability,"I'm dealing with mysterious system hangs and a ""Onetouch"" process that seems to launch randomly and take all my system CPU cycles so everything runs really slow. Killing the process fixes the problem until I reboot. But the hangs seem to be getting worse."
+16020,2,not for concealment!,"Holy huge! If you bought the ipod because of its small size and are now considering this item, yer nuts. If you are looking for something to make your significant investment all but bulletproof, look no further. i have already dropped and gotten mine wet and the protection factor is phenominal. I have also already been laughed at by the neighbors for having a small laptop strapped to my waist. Size aside, the only other comlaint I might have is that it is still easy to scratch the view area of the otterbox, but the ipod screen is still protected, maybe some of those peel away screen savers would be a good investment?"
+16021,2,Go Bananas for this Book!,"Ready or not, the Five Little Monkeys are at it again! Mama, dressed in bright red, leaves her five little mischief-makers with a blue-eye-shadowed, bubble-gum blowing teen named Lulu. They'll try anything to keep from going to bed at eight, including an ongoing game of hide-and-seek and a frantic quest for the ultimate hiding spot. My girls, ages 5 and 3, love all the books in the Five Little Monkey series because they're so silly. The rhyming text and repetitive phrases make it easy for them to read along with me...over and over again, of course (they're not the only monkeys who hate to go to bed on time!)."
+16022,1,Keep far away from this crappy Pop Filter,"I have a bad story with this filter.First I order it as an Amazon-own item which mean it may has a decent quality but actually Amazon lied me. The item was ship from some crappy store call woodwind... something I have not heard about. That the 1st bad.Secondly when I open the box, instead of an nice item as displayed on the website, this is a very very crappy, cheap chinese made Pop Filter. The filter grid is a cheap nilon grid, which I think they steal from their mom's ... and the rim is also very cheap plastic one. Most importantly the hanger is very crappy, defective. I cannot direct the hanger as I want to cover my mic.Caraaaaaappppppy, keep away from it."
+16023,2,"A short, loud, urgent warning","Little by little the skeptics of global warming are falling away. Let's hope this brief and very persuasive book shakes loose a few more of them, because Kolbert, an unbiased reporter and one of the best non-fiction writers of English today, makes it clear that the time to act on anthropogenic climate change is ten years ago. Were it not that the subject matter is inherently depressing, this book would be a sheer pleasure to read---and as it is, it can and should be read by everyone who has a middle school diploma. If you are considering buying it, stop reading the reviews right now and make the purchase. Then read it and pass it on."
+16024,2,"Very pretty, eye-catching color and sparkle",These earrings are very pretty. I love the way that capture the light and shine. The colors are beatiful and I receive many compliments when I wear them. I love leverback earrings; they are comfortable to wear and seem secure. These earrings are the perfect size and length. Definitely recommend.
+16025,2,This Item Is Totally AWSOME!!,"This toy is so cool. The day I got it I opened it up to find tons of pieces and instructions. I spent a lot of time just building the models that were in my head. This is sooo cool. If you buy this, you are NOT wasting you'r money."
+16026,1,If you have an IQ over 95...,"Mundane, pedestrian, intellectually insulting. These are all things that Elementary wishes it could rise to the level of. It is too clearly gimmicky to be effectively a gimmick. A disappointment on every level and an insult to any actual Holmes fans. This so far removed from the greatness of the BBC series Sherlock that I don't think it deserves to inhabit the same universe. The rest of the world must watch elementary and think it was intended for mentally challenged pre-schoolers. If your IQ is below 95, this program no doubt keeps you guessing, but then so would Sesame Street. If you like watching Lucy Liu disprove that Asian women are ageless in appearance, tune in. If you want to be entertained, buy paint...watch it dry."
+16027,2,Sure Gave Me A Lot Of Jumps!,"I just watched this last night,and I really liked it. Very creepy,and made me jump,a lot!Sometimes I wasn't sure about who was a ghost or a living person,but that just made it better.Very interesting and original story,about an unusual Chinese cultural belief.One of the best Ghost story movies I've yet seen.Right up there with another of my Asian favorites ""A Tale Of Two Sisters""."
+16028,2,Whoopy cat......what?,"In response to whoopy cats assessment that they sound like they listened to the White Stripes and thought it would be cool to kick out the bass player...Dude, there is no bass player in the White Stripes. You will only hear a bass on a few songs that is added in, but there is no bass player that is a part of the band. Learn your stuff before posting garbage like that.This band is amazing for a duo. Don't knock them just because they don't live up to certain people's definition of punk. Yeah, it's much more bluesy, but you can't just call it blues without giving it another rock genre-edge, in this case."
+16029,2,Ultrasonic Cleaner Solution,A good product but probably could do just as well with a home cleaner such as dish soap but would recommend.
+16030,1,Two different colored shoes!!,"They sent me two shoes if opposite color! Very frustrating, and they wouldn't let me exchange them. I wasted 60+ dollars on shoes that Wernt even wearable."
+16031,1,Poor amount of gore,"Being a big fan of this genre of films, and Lucio Fulci. I expected much more from this film and was sadly dissapointed. It is very slow to get started, and there is actually very small amounts of gore. Although the head drilling scene is horrific, and one of the worst scenes that i have evr seen in a movie, very little else happens. The film struggles, and for a Zombie film there is a distinct lack of zombie action. I am a massive fan Zombie, and have just purchased the beyond and New York Ripper, and of all the Fulci films, City of the Living Dead is a poor effort"
+16032,1,CANT GET THROUGH IT,"I was so excited when this came out, waiting in line at midnight...but once I started to read it, the excitement turned into a dull thud. I am finding it very hard to get through. Rowling is falling into the trap that Stephen King fell into, producing long, bloated books. I am reading the whole series aloud to my son and have noticed that upon reading them for the second time, they tend to drag. I think the problem is that Rowling is good at writing dialogue but not really good at the aura that makes children's literature so special like the CS Lewis series and ""Charlotte's Web"" which are filled with richness. I enjoy the books and her imagination but there is a lot of repetition. Harry is constantly getting into trouble and sometimes it's really tedious. I don't know how I will read Book 5 aloud. I was very disappointed in the dragging pages."
+16033,2,Big sound for a small horn,"I keep this horn handy when I'm walking my dogs, in case any unleashed dogs come up to us looking for trouble. A blast from the horn startles everybody and is said to prevent attacks. I've never had to use but it gives me peace of mind."
+16034,1,Rubber broke off into food during 1st use,"Although this was recommended by Cook's Illustrated, the durability of this product is terrible. I was making rice crispy treats and the thin edges of this spatula broke off into the food; had to throw this away after 1 use."
+16035,1,not as good as other cho-pat,"I have the original cho-pat, which is wonderful. It is the only product I've found that keeps all my knee ""parts"" steady and feeling good when I exercise. But the original has velcro that rubbed me the wrong way, so I thought the new & improved version would be better. But this one won't stay put - slides down my leg, no matter how tight I make it. I would like to return, but they won't take it back. Save your money ... or better yet, buy the original one and modify the velcro so it won't hurt your skin."
+16036,2,A classic no good player should be without.,Believe the reviews--this book cannot be overrated. It is far and away the best book ever written on playing the hand at bridge. It is encyclopedic and appropriate for experienced and novice players alike.
+16037,2,Work well with Mac,"I have a Mac Mini with only 4 usb ports. After plugging in my keyboard, printer, and usb powered speakers, I am left with only one available slot. I plugged this bad boy into it and presto, 7 new usb ports. You aren't even required to plug it in with the included AC adapter. If all you're using are 1-2 flash drives, then the unit receives adequate power from your computer's usb port. If you intend to connect multiple items such as usb powered external hard drives, then you will have to plug in the AC power as well. I haven't had any issues with this product. There are so many ports I no longer have to unplug some devices to make room for others, as there is room for all. No problems with my different drives un-mounting when my computer goes to sleep, unlike some other popular usb hubs. I wouldn't recommend using this to connect a USB wireless network adapter. It seems to me that connecting it, and multiple other devices through a single port would affect internet performance."
+16038,1,This company makes faulty monitors,"Another reviewer wrote: ""I wanted it to work!"" and so did I! One of the parent receivers never worked and when I called Safety first they asked me to send it to them and they'd replace it but ""it would take a while."" Two months later the second receiver died, and I still hadn't replaced the first one. I called and asked for a refund and they tried to convince me to pay for shipping it back to them! If you buy this and have problems, DEMAND that they send you a return postage label! After I got rid of those (still no refund yet, by the way!) I purchase a Safety First monitor at the other end of the price spectrum: $16.00 I know, WHY would I do that? Long story...but the end result was: THAT DIDN'T WORK EITHER!This company has poor quality products."
+16039,2,A MUST HAVE ON DVD - SPARKLE,"I SIMPLY LOVE THE MOVIE (SPARKLE). IT SHOULD DEFINITELY BE PUT ON DVD AND WHEN IT DOES, I WILL BE ONE OF THE FIRST TO GET THAT CLASSIC.C.C. OF MARYLAND"
+16040,1,I would not recommend this Product,"I purchased this product in November 2002 and have probably watched a dozen or so movies on it. On day 80 of owning it the brains became scrambled and it would not open the door, rotate discs etc. After having to go through the hassle of taking it to a warranty service center it went out again this time out of the 90 day warranty. Since its has been more than 90 days since I purchased it, labor to look at it now is $70 which is not worth it. We probably only used the DVD player once a week and did not abuse it or mishandle it. The electronics seem to be overly sensitive because we barely used it. I just went out and purchased a panasonic which will hopefully have better results. I would not take my chances on a toshiba if I were you."
+16041,1,Pleasurecraft pleasures a little,Not good acting. Some Sex scenes not too hot. Last one is best between Amber Newman and the captain. As he is having sex with her from behind her bare foot is touching his bare foot. He has pleasured reactions on his face while shs barely has none. 2 Stars.
+16042,1,"""father"" riker: interesting. betty lewis: amateur.","the story of holy city is intriguing and the research for this book was thorough enough, but it is about the worst written book i have ever read. totally intolerable if you are not quite curious about the subject matter. the whole thing essentially consists of nonsequiturs and the information is not really organized into chapters as advertised. there are two misspellings on the very first page. the typography is terrible as well: reckless capitalization; hyphens used for em-dashes; (typewriter) dumb quotes throughout. betty lewis, a respectable local historian, did not appear to have the benefit of any particular skill in composition, nor of an editor."
+16043,2,best circus script I've seen.,"This film is really terrific. The hero aspect really pays off. If I have any negative thoughts about it, it's that the DVD, itself, was somewhat ""soft"". (Focus wasn't sharp.)"
+16044,2,VALUABLE MOVIE FOR COLLECTION,"Just don't read the negative reviews. After the passing of Michael Jackson, this movie has become a golden piece fro collectors & fans...We get to se MJ act and show us his true love and appreciation of art, acting, and singing. All characters are just awesome...Love the metaphors"
+16045,1,Busy Buddy,"Ughh ..l I tried getting a toy for my puppy to play with to dispense treats.. it worked for a day.. my puppy was slammimg this jug around .. and the treats would dispense out .. he whipped it around he loved it ..but it cracked on the bottom and that's that.. so out of commission .. but nosey if you do not have and carpets or rugs in your home.. i have hard wood floor .. it was loud and nosey ,which was ok for a few minutes but then, i had to take it away .. good idea but my pup is 3 months old pitbull/german shepard mix.. he is active so now i ihave to shop for another treat dispenser.. i will submit a video of what i am talking about .. i just purchased another toy I will tell you how it goes .. i ordered the squirrel that dispenses treats i heard it was strirdy !!"
+16046,2,Walking home through the ruins of LA,"I picked this up on the recomendation of a friend. At less than $3 I can afford to take chances and try new authors. I liked this very much, the combination of humor and pathos works well. And for anyone who has lived anytime in LA the journey through the ruins of an eartquake smashed city brings back memories. Unlike some reviewers who disliked the twist ending, I thought it fit very well and enhanced the character & story. I will be looking at other stories by Lee Goldberg."
+16047,1,"Poor design, premature failure","Clearly a lot of people have had problems with this unit. When mine failed after about 6 weeks of use, I dug into it to see what was up. It ends up that the overheat protection on this thing isn't real great. The first layer of overheat protection is provided by a sensor integrated into the heating element. I can't tell exactly, but it seems from the element manufacturer's literature (....) that the device sends a cut off signal between 250 and 300 C, per the chart on page 4. However, Honeywell used an NEC-Schott SF214E thermal cutoff as a backup device. This fails permanently if it's heated to 214 C. In other words, the backup, ""sacrifice the machine and not the house it's in"" device fails before the normal operation re-settable thermal cutoff. As a result, the device will probably stop working the first time it runs dry. Don't buy it."
+16048,1,Highway Robbery for a proprietary cable!,"I've used a number of Kodak digital cameras over the years - And at one time, I would recommend them exclusively to my family members, but I am pretty angered by Kodak's use of non-standard USB jacks and then gouging their customers when a replacement is needed.If they used a standard USB to mini-USB cable, I could get it for five to ten bucks.Many of the camera's that need this cable can be purchased refurbished now for about twice the price of the cable! It is insane to pay 1/2 the total price of a piece of equipment just to replace the USB cable to the device.Kodak has lost a long time customer (with purchasing influence over multiple house holds) because of this kind of business practice.I'd have given this cable zero stars if possible."
+16049,1,Horrible,"This is the worst book I have ever read. I got it from the library, thank goodness so I didn't spend any money on it. I was offended by the stereotypes of poor minorities and rich white (and everything in between). It was wordy in a way that things that could be assumed had to be written for some reason. It was predictable and halfway through I started skimming just to get to the end in hopes of finding out that the grandmother did take their checks away forever and that the twins were living on the street."
+16050,1,A Teaser,"This would look amazing as a TV drama but makes tedious reading. Consuela is obviously hugely intelligent, well read and educated but really,if she could have created a world around herself, she would have been fulfilled. Some descriptions and observations are wonderful. Despite all the personages mentioned, she was the only one who really counted."
+16051,2,Extremely raw!,"This is definitely a book where you need a strong stomach to read. It's incredibly raw and brutal, but very straighforward. Luke Davies has done an amazing job. I've always been of the opinion that a person fighting addiction needs to see the good, the bad and the ugly. The very worst of what addiction does to you. After all, we are human beings on this planet. And there are a very good percentage of us that need to hit rock bottom, that need to have death stare us straight in the eye to get the point. A good hard, stinging slap in the face if you will. If this book doesn't do it, I don't know what would."
+16052,2,Beautiful photos,"This book has beautiful photos and describes some tips on what to strive for in various dressage exercises. As a beginner, I am still somewhat in the dark about how to achieve such perfection since the book is not heavy on details of how to use your aids to achieve good results. I am now looking for a book that can be a good supplement to my instructors."
+16053,1,could be so much better,"Pros:- surface feels nice- buttons work ok- cool glow effect- easy to carry aroundCons:- no ergonomics and poorly designed. For example, the ""illumination off"" button is located in the lower left corner of the keyboard and occupies valuable realestat instead of the unused top right- the buttons are too small, space bar is difficult to press and easy to miss.- letter are cheaply transfered onto the surface and will weare out easyWould recommend trying it before buying it first.. If I only had the packaging I would not have kept mine.."
+16054,2,what an incredible fusion of alternative music,"Well, what can I say about this incredible band? The powerful percussion along with the brilliant playing of classical instruments such as the Wood flute, the celtic harp and the Uilleann pipes makes this music amazing. They seem to be able to mix traditional indian singing, tribal and celtic music with modern day bass beats, an impressive feat by anyone. Buy this album if you haven't already, and buy the second volume, it's just as good! What an amazing album!"
+16055,1,A Drag to Watch,"After the first 15 minutes I knew that the best part of the movie had past, but I kept watching because I paid for it... I should have stopped. I Shot Andy Warhol keeps getting worse as it goes on. Lili Taylor is a bore to watch and none of the other characters are able to save the movie. This movie was just all around bad and a drag to watch. Pick another independant film if you're looking for something interesting."
+16056,2,Great book,"This was a great book! I though, from reading the jacket that i Might not enjoy it, quantom foam seemed so hard to explain. But then using and experiment with beams of light an slits, i found it wasn't that different. As in Jurassic Park, this idea for traveling in 'time' or to a different 'multiverse' seems perfectly plausible, as did the resercetion of the dinosaurs in Jurassic Park.Last night, i read untill 1 in the morning, reading the last 300 pages of the book.It was greast"
+16057,2,Great Value and better that OEM,Ford wanted twice the price for this remote and my dealer has a charge for programming. This looks and functions exactly like the OEM remote. Simple instructions were provided and it took less than 1 minute to do the programming on the new remote and the old original that I had. I highly recommend this product and seller.
+16058,1,do not buy.,"I suggested better than this vacuum.1. Buy balloons. (balloons are much cheaper than this vacuum.2. make round balloons on the carpet (dust will be attached by balloon because of static electricity)That's it. this is more clean and much faster, and much cheaper."
+16059,2,One of the most important TPBs since 80s,"Ok, so maybe art is not so great, maybe not everything is explained, and second half was extremely lame because of showing DeSade as one of invisibles and good guy, but this comic is full of esothery and is social and pop culture kind of satire and criticism. Its value is that it points to something nothing else does and first four issues, Dane in London and his initiation are great. Theory of conspiracy fans will enjoy all of the Invisibles, and some of ideas shown in series were reexploited later, watered down of course."
+16060,2,Great video for young girls!,"I am a teacher and did this with some of my students. It was challenging, but it did a good job of clearly showing the poses and not talking too much!"
+16061,2,"A Must-Have for Owners of ""Verve Remixed.""","This is the companion piece to the compilation ""Verve Remixed,"" which had dance-interpretations of classic jazz tunes. On this album, we get the original versions, and they all shine in their pristine glory. The track listing is flawless, sampling the work of Billie Holliday, Nina Simone, Sarah Vaughn, and other must-have legendary jazz artists. The Verve label has rightfully earned its status as one of the leading names in jazz, and they've come up with a dynamite album whose pricetag makes it an appealing bargain. Those who own ""Verve Remixed"" shouldn't even have to ask if they need to get this album. Both discs compliment each other like mashed potatoes and gravy."
+16062,2,Overall Good,"The backpack came quickly from the online store. Overall, the backpack is very good and sturdy. It is much better than the Canon hand bag that I was used to. I just used the new bag on a trip to florida and it made the trip much better..Pros and Cons:Pros- sturdy- light- holds alot of equipment- everything easily accessableCons- Straps across belly and chest should be detachable (very uncomfortable)- More padding needed for top where camera sits- Velcro needed for tripod straps on bottom"
+16063,1,Not worth the price,"This statue was a disappointment for the price paid. It was cheap looking and not at all what was expected. Compared to other Bowen Design pieces already owned, this was not worth the money. It was very expensive and should have been returned but it was a gift."
+16064,2,One of the Best!,"This is a landmark film that belongs in any collection of martial arts films. There are flaws in editing and continuity, but the action is top-notch. Plus the point of view is enlightening in that it presents history from a non-Western point of view. The DVD is light on extras, but the commentary track by Ric Meyers is informative and interesting.I do have to comment on the earlier review that said to forget ""Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon"". The person who wrote that review doesn't get it, or is only interested in one-dimensional film making. ""Crouching Tiger,..."" is an instant classic, because it contains more than just superior martial arts action - it has a timeless, epic fantasy story, great acting, and excellent cinemetography. ""Once Upon A Time In China"" set the standard for it's day; ""Crouching Tiger,..."" raises the bar even higher."
+16065,1,Not the quality I expected,"I purchased this thinking Body Glove was a quality product, but after only a few months of use the interior clear plastic that covers the display screen came apart at the seams. Also, the clear plastic never seemed to stay in place while using the phone, it would always ride up and cover the receiver/speaker; you would have to either constantly push it back down so that you could hear the other caller or take it off altogether."
+16066,1,- 10 star!,"this album is a jokeis not even better then garage underground punk bandno solos,crapy drum snare ,crapy vocal, bad sound production, repeatitive riff and lyrics.now i know why they put alot of bonus like dvd , download stuff etc because themselves not sure that this album is qualify as real metal albumyou guys better find other metal stuff to buy like iron maiden,megadeth or testamentthis is completely crap"
+16067,2,Sure fire success,"Months ago I began this eating program and lost 15 pounds. Before I went to Europe for 8 weeks, I told several of my friends about it. I stayed as close to the plan as possible during my vacation and returned the same weight. My friends had lost between 25 and 40 lbs and are all off their high blood pressure meds. We all now know that we have control of our weight forever - got to go, my brown rice is ready!"
+16068,1,Hmmmmmmm,"Well, OK but not that good. Yawn!!!!!Mind you I had read thi years back when Daewoo still ""EXISTED"""
+16069,1,Superficial and lacking in substance...,"I rented this movie because I had heard good things about it in the media. But it was a sad disappointment. While the story had potential for deep character development, the movie failed utterly to do so. Instead, it was plagued with superficiality. The director seemed more interested in the over-abundance of sex scenes (just add some cheesy music, and this movie easily becomes soft-porn) than with the lives of his characters outside the bedroom."
+16070,2,Fun at first,"I enjoy the game, and all the options you have, but I am just not compelled to keep playing after the first few weeks. Seems to get repetitive."
+16071,1,VERY BORING INDEED!,"Having seen this game at E3 2004, I must say I'm very disappointed in the look and play.The game is nothing new and is really bland. The graphics are dated and look rather dull. I would not recommend this game to anyone who had bought the last one.Look out for Jak 3 or Ratchet & Clank 3, they are much better games and look a hundred times better. I played all three games and this was the boring one!Is this for real? This game looks pants. I was hoping it would be better then the last one, but in fact it's worse. The game has cut-scene after cut-scene and no real fun factor."
+16072,2,*sniff...*,"This has the start of the conclusion of Battle city.Yami Marik's face becomes more distorted than ever.The story between the Ishtars is so compelling...but it's in Japanese.I would suggest buying 31 with this one, to avoid cliffhangers and see BC's nice ending.(Marik's lovability becomes really high in 31)"
+16073,1,Worthless,"I feel dumber now that I have read this book. All it does is takes common sense ideas and repeats them over and over. For a newcomer to salmon trolling like myself, this book should have taught me a great many things, but I guess I will have to learn from my next book."
+16074,1,Where is it??????,"I have not even recieved the book yet, and I placed the order at the begining of January for a Bookclub I am involved with. I am fortunate that our local library had a copy, or I would have been up a creek! Needless to say, I am not very happy. When I placed the order, It said that it might take up to the 29th of January for the book to get to me. Well, I am still waiting."
+16075,1,Save Your Money,"The talking caller ID only gives the name and not the number, so a call from someone you know (eg MOM back in Podunk) is just like the call from the magazine salesman -- ""out of area"" is all you hear. You can't program the caller id to recognize the number as ""MOM"". Voice quality is marginal. So that people can hear your recorded greeting, you have to shout into the microphone, which is too directional. But on sale, it's worth trying as perhaps a second phone on the line."
+16076,1,really wanted it to work,"Hi. It didn't work for me at all. I really, really wanted it to, but there was no benefit at all. And that high-pitch thing annoyed me too.I have Comcast cable internet and a Lynksys router."
+16077,1,Vacuum is a waste of money!!!,"I bought this vacuum approximately three weeks ago. It seemed like it had some good features, and the price wasn't too bad. Well the first time I vacuumed just after I took it out of the box, it did work well-sucking up a ton of dirt and fur etc. However, there seemed to be fine coating of dirt all over the outside of the machine. I was a little perturbed by that, but didn't think too much about it. Well the next time I went to vacuum, it sucked up something that it shouldn't have and then quit sucking. We took it apart and apparently the belt had broken. So we replaced the belt, and also cleaned out the filter which was totally clogged. I went to vacuum again, and it was only picking up about half the stuff on the floor. Plus I could now see that it was spewing dust into the air. So I returned it, and have since purchased a Hoover Elite Rewind which has many great features and works well."
+16078,1,Content - Great . Production Quality of DVD - Garbage,"As a Price fan, I had to get these two classics. When the DVD arrived I anxiously poped it out of it's case, put it in the DVD player, and hit the play button. The sound was scratchy, there was an annoying white glow in the lower right corner of the screen, and the original film the DVD was produced from must have been used as a cat scratching post. I swear that the DVD was made from a video tape shot in a cinema off the moviue screen - it's that ad. At first I thought this was as good as the quality got for this movie. Then I saw it on the SciFi Channel - the quality was excellent, sound was perfect, etc.So if you want it for the movies, it's OK. As for quality, it's the WORST DVD I have seen to date - and I own over 150!"
+16079,2,Great Price For A Great Vacuum,"This was the 4th vacuum that I've purchased in the last 4 years. The others were a variety of 'uprights'. They were either too heavy or the brushes weren't very useful or the vacuum was easily clogged or just low vacuum. This time I went on-line and researched and read reviews on several different mid-priced vacuums. This Hoover WindTunnel Cannister got a lot of good reviews so I ordered it.The Hoover WindTunnel Canister Vacuum, Electronic Bagless S37665-040 is great. The brushes do a very good job of raising the carpet fiber, and the three level vacuum picks up the real fine dirt. I like the ease of going to use the wand around the carpet's edges and furniture. It takes just seconds to switch back and forth. I have no complaints with this vauum's operation and have recommended it to my daughter and work associates."
+16080,2,Bernard and Miss Bianca Do It Again!,"In Disney's ""The Rescuers Down Under,"" Rescue Aid Society mice Bernard and Miss Bianca travel to Australia to help Mara Houte, the golden eagle. With the assistance of Wilbur, an albatross, and numerous other friends encountered along the way (such as a wise-cracking kangaroo rat), they hurry to help the endangered bird. Voice talents of Bob Newhart (Bernard), Eva Gabor (Miss Bianca) and John Candy (Wilbur) move the story along at a good pace. George C. Scott provides voice for the villain, a bounty hunter of endangered animals. Scott's sidekick is a goanna lizard called Joana - and there is some fascinating interplay between the lizard and the man. A sidebar plot is Bernard's plan to propose marriage to Miss Bianca ... and all of the things that conspire to get in the way. This is a nice movie for the entire family, and one with a good message. I highly recommend it."
+16081,2,NAET,"I have read the book and agree that the title can be misleading. HOWEVER, that being said...I have brought my autistic twins to a NAET practitioner...after the first treatment, I already see a difference. My oldest twin is able to put 10 words together in a sentence (2 days ago he struggled to put 3 words together). My youngest twin is less agitated and more happy. Until you bring your autistic child to a NAET practitioner and at least try 1 appt. you should not judge the content of the book or its title."
+16082,1,Has everyone gone deaf?,"I have two Martin dreadnought spruce topped guitars. One was strung with Martin Marquis Custom Lights the other with these Gortex things. Um... In nearly 30 years of playing I've never heard strings sound quite this bad. They turned my Martin into something you'd buy in the toy department of Target. Shrill, lifeless, unbalanced, with dissonant overtones. Truly horrible. I actually wrote to Gore and demanded my money back (first time I've ever done anything like that). Stick to strings from a music manufacturer not a coat maker.UPDATE: I heard back from Gore today. They said they do not offer refunds on their products, but they're sending me another set of strings. So I tell them their strings are terrible and they say ""here, have some more""...very logical."

+16084,2,"Dallas or Grey, which one?","Now don't get me wrong I really liked this book, but the beginning of it was much better than the ending. Hot, HOt, HOT! Sex scenes! I like the whole Alpha-Male biker, kidnapping story line. It's a lot different from most of the Contemporary romances I've read in the past. When he was Dallas his character was totally sexy and dangerous, but as Grey, he just sort of became another romance novel character. And why oh why does every famale character have to get pregnant? For once I would love the couple just to live together, not get married, and have kids.....Well, read the book. I guarantee you'll like it. I did."
+16085,1,"The conditions of the book should not be listed as ""good"" or new"". False advertisement!","The book received must has been exposed to the ""elements"" for a period of time? The edges have turned into brown color which has also got into the inside pages. It is dishonest to list it as in "" new"" or "" good"" conditions.I have also another copy of the same book from another vender. Same cost. This book is in perfect new conditions. What a difference!Since it is used as a gift. I have no time to return it.Very, very disappointed!"
+16086,1,Not Rockin,"Man, i was disappointed! Ive been a Lep fan for ages, i got all their cd's, and have to say this is their worst! This album should of been an addition to their new release! Then it would be okay, but for a new album? no way, this sucks, this aint def leppard."
+16087,2,Stargirl by Jerry Spinelli,I thought this was a wonderful book and it held my interest though out the book. I was kind-of dispointed with the out come but I would definatly recomend it. Enjoy!!
+16088,1,DISAPPOINTING,"Looked good out of the box. However, upon first use, the yellow handled driver broke. The plastic handle cracked while trying to loosen a nut. Then, the 1/4 inch adapter broke while using the ratchet inside the 13mm socket.Not a durable set of hardware to say the least."
+16089,1,My Experience So Far; UPDATED,"The composter I purchased from Gaiam arrived incomplete; in fact it was missing several pieces. I contacted the manufacturer of this unit (not Gaiam) and no one returned my call. I then followed Gaiam's return intructions, which were fairly clear but which cost me $35 FedEx to return. I later received an email from Gaiam explaining that they received the composter and that a new one would be coming to me in December. Apparently they were out of them at that time (11/13/2008).UPDATE: the new composter arived on December 1, earlier than promised. The unit is in fine condition and complete. I am very satisfied with it, as well as Gaiam's quick response to this problem."

+16091,1,Melted in dryer,"I ordered this pad to use on the Chicco play yard. It fit pretty well. However, I washed and dried the pad (gentle cycle, low heat) before the first use and when I pulled it out of the dryer, the waterproof vinyl was melted and there were big holes in the vinyl, making it useless as a waterproof pad. I received a free replacement and it only melted a little bit the first time, so I kept it. The second time I washed/dried it however, it melted the same way."

+16093,1,E-Z Up 10'X10',"My wife and I bought an E-Z UP canopy to complement our Caravan canopy. The E-Z UP canopy is a VERY POOR DESIGN. As we were putting it up, one of the steel channel struts bent and is permanently tweeked (without even experiencing any weather). The fabric material is good quality but the only way to rely on the frame of the E-Z UP canopy is to strap it along side a Caravan canopy. My advice - buy a Caravan canopy or a Coolaroo (from Australia)."
+16094,1,Completely inaccurate and insipid,I want people to know that this is a very inaccurate portrayal of one small town in Wisconsin. Very few of the things in this film actually happened in Black River Falls. Most of them happened throughout the state and happened over a very long time period of over 50 years. This kind of schlock gives communities unwarranted reputations. Besides being inaccurate it is also just plain badly filmed. The whispering during the asylum scenes (which was not located in or very near to Black River Falls) as especially annoying.
+16095,2,Better than I thought it would be,"The Jesse Ventura story is an example of the American Dream where an average man can push himself into places that he never would have thought that he would go.Ventura was a Navy SEAL in Vietnam, then became a professional wrestler, wrestling commentator, radio host, Mayor and then Governor of Minneapolis.Ventura writes pretty well and tells it the way he thinks it is (which is ok, everyone should have an opinion).Perhaps the only point that I would like to make is that it appears a very political book - not as in discussing politics (from which he makes some good points) but the rhetoric about not running for President. He mentions it a few times throughout the book, almost as if he wants us to think about him in the role and to start to generate support for the White House bid. It just seemed to me to be a little self-serving. That is a minor point though and could be just my imagination.All in all, a readable book and worth the time."
+16096,2,Very Comfortable,If you want a great sneaker for walking and everyday use... this is it. Very comfortable and lasts a good long time.
+16097,2,Good book despite errors,"Yes, there are errors in this book and I agree that there should have been much better editing but nonwithstanding, it's a good book. It fills the gap well between a tutorial and a reference manual. In fact, fixing the errors reinforces the learning, otherwise you are getting less benefit by simply typing in the example code. The text gives you enough knowledge to fix the code. The downloadable code on the associated site has been corrected (the site could be better publicised in the book). The book covers a lot of ground and the info is well presented. I certainly don't regret buying it, I've found it most useful."
+16098,2,Worth the price of two discs,"I didn't think that there was anything one could do with this music to make it better, but it's now been done. The sound is much better, and the sequencing of the tunes really brings this into focus. Carlos teamed with Alice Coltrane and with John McLaughlin, not to mention a host of other greats, such as Jack DeJohnette(drums), Dave Holland(bass), Tom Coster(electric piano), Larry Young(organ), Billy Cobham(drums), Mike Shrieve(drums), etc."
+16099,1,Hard to read,"I could not get into this book at all, even with the fact that Ellen Douglas was a fellow Greenvillian."
+16100,2,John Deere Gator,"My child loves the Gator. It is her and her little buddies (both are between 2 and 3 years old) favorite thing to do. The only problem is that the pieces have vibrated out of place. For instance, the pin/screw that held the steering wheel in place fell off and a few other screws from the bed have come out. We now check it regularly to be sure that things are tightened. The sissy bar handle broke off recently in my 2 1/2 year olds hand while she was riding. That is the only major problem we have had. I'm not sure where I can get a replacement sissy bar but would be very interested in finding one."
+16101,1,This game was not so great,"well, there were great graphics, the plot was cheesy, the characters were idiots and the game play was horrible. I'm sorry but I couldn't stand this game. the further I got the more I grew to hate it. You do all this reapetitive fighting to get to maybe a few seconds of great graphics. they liked to talk to lot to. I guess that's what role playing games do, but these characters were just so dumb. So if you haven't gotten this game and don't know why you haven't, now you know."
+16102,2,Beyond the Mego dolls (oops -- I mean action figures) ....,"Chip Kidd, who also wrote a neat ""Batman Animated"" coffeetable book on the well-loved and critically acclaimed ""Batman: The Animated Series"" that debuted in 1992, turns here to the hobby (and serious business, for some) of collecting.He includes his own childhood remembrances of Bat-items, as well as wonderfully quirky photography. This book, full-color throughout, is not a ""guide"" to the collectibles, as it does not include price values or manufacturers (it does give the year and dimensions for each piece pictured). And it's by no means all-inclusive (hey, not even a third of the ""Animated Series"" merchandise I own was in there!). Plus, there is an editorial comment on the Andy Warhol Batman piece that's got a bit of an attitude.But all in all, it's a neat celebration of the Bat-phenomenon -- and the Bat-collector, who in our modern times has become quite well-known, too."
+16103,2,Awesome Headphones for low price,"JVC HARX300 Full-Size Headphones (Black)I bought these headphones to use with my laptop. It is fantastic. I've been using them for a few months now, and so far no real complaints. The only one I have is that the cable is very long, but I use a rubber band to shorten the length of the cable. The sound is great, but I'm not an audiophile. I'm very satisfied with this product."
+16104,2,The best choice.,"I have six wireless, 2 line phones in the house. I have tried the cheap, generic, off brand batteries that have promised greater mah. They work great for awhile but the ability to hold a charge doesn't last long. I also had problems with static. I put on the energizers and everything is working great. No more cheap junk for me."
+16105,2,la marca lo dice todo,"son excelentes, còmodos y de gran uso. dese que los tengo los uso casi siempe y estan como nuevos, sobretodo la zuela"
+16106,2,Great tips,I think this book is excellent. It gives great suggestions on how to answer the toughest interview questions. I also like how it's set up like index cards - very easy to follow and room to write in your own responses.
+16107,1,i got sucked in !!!!!!!!!,"i am so disappointed in myself, i got sucked in by all the good reviews. could not imagine that there was so many gullible people. its sad, really, that humans will believe anything to relieve themselves of pain..."
+16108,2,My Big Fat Reception,"This is certainly one of those movies that a couple or even the whole family can laugh at loud at together. My wife doesn't watch that many movies she is always busy, so when she sits down with me and laughs at one I know it must be pretty funny. She thoroughly enjoyed this one as well as myself. Is it a little ethicly demeaning? Maybe, but no more so than all the other comedies. Besides this movie pokes fun at much more than just greeks. Besides I learned that all words are derived from Greek words and to use Windex on pimples, cuts, scratches...Don't like it? Tough! Most people do and so they are making a TV series."
+16109,1,Not the greatest blotting sheets.,"For me, 2 factors go into which blotting sheets I like, (and I've tried 4 different brands). One is how well they work, obviously. The second is how easily they come apart so you don't have to spend significant time trying to separate one sheet from the other. Clinique Pore Minimizer Oil Blotting Sheets are VERY difficult to pull apart from one another. I wasted a number of them as they're so hard to separate. And when you just want to quickly blot your face, you don't want to spend time with that. After using these, I then tried Skin blotting papers by Alison Raffaele - THEY were the BEST! I don't know if you can get them on amazon or not, but find them online asap. ""Skin by Alison Raffaele"" is the best!"
+16110,2,A theological beach novel,"Like all the books in Susan Howatch's Church of England series, ""Scandalous Risks"" has a page-turning plot and a good dose of romance and intrigue, while also being an exploration of 20th-century Anglican theology and spirituality. In this novel, the sexual tension is between a young woman and a married Anglican priest, and theologically, it's about a certain type of liberal theology (specifically, the 1960s book ""Honest to God"" by Bishop John Robinson) and its potential for misuse.The six books in the series, plus ""The Wonder Worker,"" which might as well be part of the series, move through the 20th century and have overlapping characters, but there's no need to read them in order. My favorites are this one, ""Glamorous Powers,"" and ""Absolute Truths."""
+16111,2,warmth....,"My book club read this book this past month. Fanny Flagg has such a warmth in her writing. Her stories draw you in as if you are in the story along with the characters she writes about. This was an easy and enjoyable read, full of everyday relationships."
+16112,2,"When, oh when can I purchase this!!!!!",Cannot wait. This author explcates the seemingly inexplicable with ease and elegance. Have been waiting ten years since his latest endeavor and know I shall not be disappointed.
+16113,2,Star Wars with details,"I purchased this set to replace old VHS tapes. The improvements in picture and sound quality is worth the investment. To other reviewers, a few seconds of new scenes in hours of great high resolution sci-fi does not diminish its value."
+16114,2,"Review for ""Body of Secrets""","I found ""Body of Secrets"" to be quite an interesting book about the NSA but there was one error that really, really bugs me. On page 402, the author states that DSD is headquartered at Victoria Barracks; on St. Kilda Rd in Melbourne.This is wrong: DSD moved to the western side of the Department of Defence complex at Russell Offices in Canberra during 1991 - 1992. It's new $A100 million building was opened in May 1992. The move completed the consolidation of the Australian Intelligence Community to Canberra.I was disappointed that the author didn't check his information. Other than that, I quite enjoyed the book."
+16115,2,Best Workout for Seniors,"Even after 16 years, I love this routine. It has helped me lose 30 pounds without sore muscles. I wish it would be released on DVD. I am 64 years old, and still going strong. Many other workouts leave my back aching, but this one makes me feel energetic and limber. We need more like this one for young at heart seniors."
+16116,1,Whether Kenny G plays Jazz or not is not the issue....,"Okay, so Kenny G is not a Jazz musician in the purest sense. It is not his fault that he was labeled as such and then criticized for it. The fact that people even buy his music speaks louder than words. This CD along with his others is, if you want to put a label on, instrumental pop or easy listening. It does a great job at being just that. I'm sure more people have made love to his albums than to Coltrane's or Davis'. One doesn't have to spend a great deal of time thinking about what he is doing as opposed to the energy that is involved in listening to Coltrane. I started my music training at age 3 so have developed a keen ear for music that says something and has substance. Breathless doesn't do either."
+16117,2,Fantastic book,"I'm usually not the type to make the time to write a review but with this book I felt compelled to.There are so few books written on this topic. I've read other but this one is so comprehensive and has such amazing detailed examples.The only negative is that it is not available in mp3 so I can listen to it. Mr. Gage, if you read these reviews could you please get to work on this."
+16118,2,Great wool shirt base layer,I purchased this base layer because I've been getting into hiking and wanted solid clothing that I could layer. I wore it on a short hike after receiving it and found it very comfortable. It's actually so comfortable that I like to wear it around the house. I'm hoping to start some camping and this will definitely go with me.
+16119,1,Solid Mug,"UPDATE: This mug has great functionality, but it is way too hard to clean. After using it for a few months, I separated all of the pieces and discovered that my coffee/cream had solidified in all sorts of hard to reach places. So disgusting. It's a good mug, but be cautious about putting milk in it. I couldn't put the pieces back together correctly and had to throw it away.I am truly impressed with this mug, and I use it every day. You can pop the top closed to prevent spills, and pop it open to sip freely with 360 sip-ability. I left a full cup of coffee in my JoeMo, popped it closed, and drove across town. I came home two and a half hours later to perfectly hot coffee!!"

+16122,1,the dataset is not available so one can't practice the method,"The book as such is great, one of the few truly introductory texts on mixed-effects / multi-level modeling that is comprehensible even for beginners. However, the data set is not available for download and the author as well as the publisher do not react to inquiries so one can't rerun the analyses to see whether one understood it all."
+16123,1,"Very dim display, even on bright setting",Even in a room with most of the lights off and the TV on it's hard to see the clock due. Even visitors with 20/20 vision have commented on it. Dim numbers defeats the purpose of a large display.
+16124,2,A great read!,"I am very careful about what I choose to read. I have a busy career and want to spend my home time relaxing. This book was a melody of feelings and scenes from all of our youths. The main character experiences sadness and joy and a love that he must keep private. The scenes from his home are sensitive and warm. There are many clever lines and turns in this work. The sub-plots were cleverly interwoven . As an English teacher, I constantly looked for good Canadian writers- Henaut makes the grade."
+16125,1,NOT INFORMATIVE ENOUGH.,"THE BOOK DOES NOT HELP COLLECTORS OF CZECH BOHEMIAN IRIDESCENT INKWELLS. FIRST, THERE ARE ONLY 8 EXAMPLES IN THE BOOK. THE PHOTOGRAPHS ARE TOO DARK AND DO NOT CAPTURE THE BEAUTY OR TEXTURE OF THE GLASS. BUT WORSE, THE INFORMATION IS WRONG. INKWELLS CLEARLY MARKED WITH THE GERMAN PATENT MARK, D.R.G.M. ARE LABELED 'AMERICAN."" IN ONE INSTANCE, TWO INKWELLS MADE OF THE SAME GLASS ARE CALLED RESPECTIVELY 'AMERICAN"" AND ""EUROPEAN."" THE AUSTRIAN MARK OE.P COMES OUT ""DEP."" AT LEAST THEY ARE CALLED ""LOETZ-TYPE,"" WHICH IS ACCURATE, SINCE NONE OF WAS MADE BY LOETZ. A GOOD BARGAIN BOOK TO LOOK AT PICTURES, BUT DEFINITELY NOT FOR THE ESPECIALIST."
+16126,2,A Basket Case Too,"For a Hiaasen-novel this one is rather restrained and low-key. No wacko environmentalists, militiamen, ex-Governors, etc., even the most hateful fast-buck operator is not a resident of Florida but California. Hardcore Hiaasen fans probably will ask themselves if next he'll admit to actually liking Disney World ...Almost all characters are likeable, with the exception of some people on the fringes of (post?) MTV fame. The hero is a journalist with an obsession about death - probably a kind of workplace hazard for an obituary writer. But still, it damages one's social life if on learning someone's age the famous people who died at that particular age become the topic of conversation. Talking about a basket case ...Still, the book has the typical Hiaasen-touch: the evil in it get punished and the cynics who read it get to enjoy it ..."

Good tunes, great talent, remarkable depth and range, and heart and soul to go with it. I love the deep breath and spoken line in ""White Flag."" Keep on keepin on, GarthMan! ...err I mean Chris!"
+16129,2,"An ordinary man, cultural devastation, messianic solution","This was the first Cowper I read, it's also one of those incredibly satisfying books that I go back to time and again. The quality of writing is reminiscent of John Wyndham at his very best, and the plot and characters evolve and are tempered to an inevitable ""absolution"". Each time I read this book I find myself asking ""what would I do in this situation of species death ?"" Every time I hope it would be the morally right thing, but I suspect my courage. Cowper's compassionate understanding of his characters and their dilemmas enables us to walk in his world. His imagination is based firmly in our realities of personal selfishness and personal sacrifice. He soars beyond the immediate areas of species assumptions, expectations and gratification, into questions of values, intentions and outcomes. My thanks for making me think and question all this, as well as providing a wonderful parable of our times."
+16130,2,Long Road Home to Freedom : An Anthology,I was assigned this CD and Book collection for a class at my university. I must say that I am throughly impressed at all the historiacl information and woderful songs that were chosen. This is an indept look at Black music from Africa to present.
+16131,2,Motorcycle Club,Top of the line...Easy to place on my motorcyle and to remove in a short time. Should have purchased this years ago.
+16132,2,Excellent Book!,Very organized and detailed. I'm surprised all of this information can fit easily into one little book!
+16133,1,Very unlikeable main character.,"I realize this book is supposed to be humorous as well as a realistic portrayal of a rich girl whose most inner thoughts are discovered, but I found Harriet's actions to be more irritating than funny. Yes, there are a few laughs and the author tells a good story, but it's hard to get by the fact that Harriet would be hated in most schools because of what she thinks of others, and because she is a spoiled BRAT. All she thinks about is herself, and acts like a jerk when Ole Golly leaves. I don't have the least bit of sympathy for this whiner. There are a lot of cruel things said and done to people in this book, and the Janie character wanting to blow up the school seems to be inappropriate in today's day and age, since kids are actually doing that and it's not funny anymore. Sorry if you liked this book. I didn't. (The movie was actually better.)"
+16134,2,A great read for anyone.,"I think ""Luna"" is a great book. It shows the reality side instead of everyone just accepting you with no qualms. Luna faced her fears eventually and went after her dream. Whomever we truly are should be celebrated and not looked down on. Luna faced both sides. Anyone LGBT or straight should read this book. You could learn somthings from it. I hope there will be a sequel to this book."
+16135,2,Hunt this one out,Watching this on my Amazon Prime movies was really quite a treat. Much better than a lot of mainstream movies. Actor Willem Dafoe gives an outstanding performance here in this much different type of movie.
+16136,2,Outstanding Second in Series,"Amy Lane's second installment of what will hopefully be many future installments in this series is outstanding and builds on the characters and plots introduced in ""Vulnerable,"" yet stands on its on as an enjoyable and refreshing change in fantasy literature. In this series, the characters' eroticism is healing and positive, not cruel and sadistic, as is seen in much of the current literature. The characters are interesting and provide a fresh view of the faerie and other fey creatures. The elements of the story have a new edge and twist from the traditional ""faerie"" that makes this series stand out from the infinite crop of modern fantasy. Clearly, this is a series in which there are many more stories to be told, and hopefully the author will continue!!"
+16137,1,WORST EMINEM CD EVER,this cd was by far eminems worstThe Beats were HorrendousThe way the lyrics sounded was even worsethere are 2 maybe 3 good songs on herethe Bonus disc only has 3 songs2 of them are decentI personally feel i wasted my money on this cd
+16138,2,A Northern Masterpiece,"Easily one of the best pop records I've ever heard. I paid dearly for my copy, but it was worth every penny.""A Happy Pocket"" is right up there with the best records from groups like ""The Lilac Time"" and ""The Innocence Mission"". Every track is a gem. I would buy several copies for friends, if were ever to be re-released."
+16139,1,CELL a stupid book,not only is it a stupid book...its a very stupid book and a waste of time to read.
+16140,2,more reality in to it,more reality type of movie. It is not fake and it is closer to not being a fantasy movie. Good movie.
+16141,2,recorder,This product is very durable. We bought it for our fourth grader who needed it for school. She wanted to carry it in her backpack and at first we were a little leary but with the case that came with it...we have no worries now. and she loves it so much. She was learning how to play it before school actually started.
+16142,1,Not as good as original version,"This one contains four tracks: ""If God Would Send His Angels"" [single version]. This one is not as good as the version on 'Pop' - the lyrics are cut, and the arrangement is a bit less daring (interesting) than the original. ""Slow Dancing"" [with Willie Nelson]. Although originally written for Willie Nelson, the attempt to duet with the famous country singer (as they did quite successfully on 1993's ""The Wanderer"" with Johnny Cash) is clearly inferior to the all-acoustic version of this song can be found on the ""Stay"" single. ""Two Shots of Happy, One Shot of Sad."" Originally written for Frank Sinatra, this is not one of U2's strongest b-sides. ""Sunday Bloody Sunday"" [live]. This version of this song (with Edge alone on vocal and guitar) is the sole reason why the CD-single is a must for any hardcore U2 fan."
+16143,2,Wild gods,"This is an amazing book, it centers around the gods and not the goddesses. It goes over the Celtic gods and their archetypes. It has some stories in it from her other books. All in all a great book that covers the Celtic gods."
+16144,2,ONE OF THE BEST BANDS I'VE SEEN LIVE AND EXCEPTIONALLY GOOD,"HAVING BEEN AROUND THE SCENE IN SOUTH FLORIDA I HAVE FOLLOWED BLONDE ENUFF FOR QUITE SOME TIME. THEIR ALBUM PERSONIFIES THE GROUPS INTENSE ATTENTION TO QUALITY. THE LEAD SINGER, CASSANDRA HAS AMAZING VERSITILITY AND PRESENCE ON STAGE. HER PERSONNA COMES ACROSS IN THIS CD BEYOND THE NORM. THE QUALITY OF SONGS ARE WRITTEN FROM A DEPTH BEYOND THE AVERAGE BAND OF TODAY. LISTENING TO THE CD AND COMPARING IT TO THE REAL LIVE SOUNDS OF THE GROUP IS A LESSON IN PLEASURE. THE LEAD GUITARIST RINGS WITH MELODIES AND A TIGHTNESS FOUND IN FEW MODERN DAY BANDS. THE BASS GUITARIST DRIVES HOME THE BEAT LAID DOWN BY THE DRUMMER. THE FEELING ONE GETS FROM HIS DRIVING BASS IS AKIN TO ECSTACY IN WAYS YOU COULDN'T DESCRIBE TO OTHERS, IT HAS TO BE LISTENED TO TO BE UNDERSTOOD. WAITING FOR THEIR NEXT ALBUM IN ANTICIPATION."
+16145,2,leave off the new......add more old,"Well, I love it, but I re-recorded it and burned it and added ""Time is on My Side"" PLUS ""Dandelion"". The Stones have always dissed Dandelion in most of their compilations, and they did here. I wish they would have left off the new, and truly made this the definitive greatest hits collection that it could have been. Then maybe they would not have had to edit so much. But, all in all, some of the best music ever made."
+16146,1,comic book to movie screen movies stink,"My problem with the movie is she is made to be a hero and a woman with a guilty conscience. Catwoman is a VILLIAN (hello!) she would not write letters of apology or save another persons life. The irony of this movie was sharron stone played more of the roll of the real cat woman then Halle did. This is the dumbest conversion of comic to movie I've ever seen. Cat woman is evil you dorks!How to make this movie a success?Give it the R rating. Make her brutally rip people apart. Make her reign the city as the major leading for, then end the movie with batman ending her reign (not that I'm a batman fan)Oh and I gave it 2 stars instead of one because of the gothic aspects of it"
+16147,2,Wanted More,"I enjoyed this book and in Wemberly's story recognize many children and adults I know. The ending is realistic. Still, I found the story not quite satisfying because we never get a hint as to why Wemberly worries. The implication is that it doesn't matter, that some people simply worry about every single thing in their lives, be the things big, medium, or small. It's difficult for me to accept this as a premise without wanting to know, Why?"
+16148,1,"Scratched CD, but return policy seems reasonable.","A 2-disc product disappointed me when I found the Music CD was scratched or somehow damaged. I wanted to play it for friends at a party and could not use it.Furthermore, the music was mainstream classical, including Beethoven -- pieces that are easily available in any music lover's library. I expected to find country dances, and other pieces that Austen and friends would actually perform in their homes.Apparently easy return policy is a very good thing."
+16149,2,Expensive but worth it,I bought this to clean up electrical connections on my 88 Mercedes. Did the job quite well and seemed to make it run better which was an awesome bonus. My only gripe is the price but I guess it just goes to prove you gotta pay for the good stuff.
+16150,2,Firday After Next the best movie.,I really liked the movie because it is funny and intertaing. I really would have liked it even better if Smokey would have been back in the movie. I think that they should make another one and have smokey back in the movie. The story line was funny and easy to follow along with the movie and pay attention. I think it's not a movie that should be watched by a little kids. But other than that it is the best Friday movie out so fare.
+16151,1,review for black version of case,"A receptacle slash magnet for all kinds of dust, hair and debris. You will be shocked at the collection of dust particles on the inside of this case. I have no idea why it attracts so much dust. This problem could possibly be exclusive to the BLACK version of the case."
+16152,2,THE great American literary genius of the 20th Century.,"Let's see now ... have you bought in to the ""PowerPoint,"" bullet-ed, ""concise"" notion of literature (i.e., stupid, undeveloped, soul-less notion of expressing what it is to be human?) --In THAT case, you will find the works of Thomas Wolfe (as you find the works of Marcel Proust or Thomas Mann) a great big bore. Otherwise ... you will NOT find them a bore; but the very opposite of a bore:--a source of inspiration, of joy, of excitement, of the quintessence of life."
+16153,1,VERY outdated!,"The video is at least 15, if not 20 years old! My almost six year old son who loves garbage trucks wasn't very interested in it because it barely shows any garbage trucks! Definitely not one my sons will want to watch over and over again. Save your money!"
+16154,1,Insufficient power for a 12 gallon aquarium.,"I ordered this heater for a 12 gallon aquarium in my office, which is located in our walkout basement. In the winter, this is a colder room, low to mid 60s. The 25W heater simply could not get my 12 gallon tank to 80 degF; the best it could manage was 74 degF, and this was only when I had warmed my office with a space heater. I ended up having to take the whole aquarium apart again to replace it with the 50W substrate heater, which now keeps my aquarium at the desired 80 degF. So I would recommend to use the next largest power rating up from what Hydor recommends, especially if your aquarium is located in a colder room. You don't want to have to take your aquarium apart again to replace the heater.Note the low rating is for the bad recommendation on tank size from Hydor. Once installed so that they have enough power to heat, these are great."
+16155,2,Another great psyco-drama,"Once again, Chuck Palahniuk has come forth with a book that alerts us of the social crisis that is all around us. We are fed visions of fame and beauty and hypnotised into wanting that for ourselves. Invisible Monsters tells us that we need not torture ourselves to achieve these things. All we need to do is let go of the dream. These people we see on tv and in magazines are not what real people are like. And, chances are, their no happier than we are. Mr. Palahniuk reminds us again that we are all a part of the same compost heap."
+16156,1,Complete piece of garbage - don't waste your money,"While this item appeared to be well-built, it broke after 23 nuts. I was attempting to crack the almonds from my tree and on only the 23rd nut, the entire item broke into 6 pieces. It never did a good job cracking the first 22. Not sure what it is designed for cracking, but certainly not almonds. Not even worth the trouble to try and get my money back and it sounds from others who have tried that the attempt would be unsuccessful. Please don't waste your money on this piece of crap."
+16157,2,Giving it another chance!!!,"My husband purchased this pump for me two days after i gave birth to my son. What a relief i felt! No more soar nipples...The pump worked excellent until today, 6 weeks later. i loved the performance so much that im taking the risk and buying another one today. JUST KEEP YOUR RECEIPT AFTER YOUR PURCHASE!!It has a 90 day waranty. *I had also purchased the medela single pump.... what a waist of money. didnt even work fresh out of the box.*"
+16158,2,Grandson's cookbook.,I bought this for my 17 yr. old grandson who is interested in cooking extra food for himself. He loves this book.
+16159,1,Very poor craftsmanship.,"This watch is pretty...but is very cheaply made. On the watch I received, the backing did not fit properly. The hinges on either side of the face were uneven, causing the bracelet to fit improperly on the wrist. I sent it back. It is definitely not worth the money."
+16160,2,The Best Intro RDBMS Book,"This is the best intro RDBMS book out there. It explains everything you need to know to design a database. It isn't vendor documentation and isn't trying to be. There are some areas that would benefit from a second edition but nothing in it is patently ""wrong"" or ""out-dated."""
+16161,2,An absolute classic,"I remember splashing around in the pool as a kid in the summer with the sun beating down and hearing ""Baker Street"" over the radio. There aren't many memories better than that. This record always gets played on the first sunny, warm, deep-blue-sky day of the year."
+16162,1,"Nice book, but not many pages","This book is nice, but man this is small. There are only a few pages and this book is wafer thin. I wish there was a few more pages to it."
+16163,2,Great summation of Messianci Judaism,This is a great little introduction to Stern's larger word Messianic Judaism. Stern does a great job of beginning the argument for understanding Christianity from a Jewish lens. I do not agree with all of his conclusions but all in all I found it insightful and well worth the time.
+16164,2,Just Works,"Ordered and arrived as expected, installed straight away and has worked without a hitch since. Top notch"
+16165,2,Great bags!,"These bags are perfect for storing milk in the fridge or the freezer. Based on other reviews I was skeptical to buy them because of the leaking issue, but i've only had one bag leak on me ever and i've been exclusively breast feeding/pumping for 7 months now and have used these bags since the beginning. I registered for them because they held the most milk. The bags that I freeze, I usually only put 6-7 oz max in each one so they will lay flat. However I keep milk in these bags in the fridge also and will sometimes put up to 10 oz in each bag. You can fit 12 oz like someone said but then the bag is hard to zip and even harder to pour the milk out of without spilling so I just stick with 10 oz. I highly recommend them!! They also don't leak or anything while pouring milk into a bottle which is great!! This is something I keep buying over and over!"
+16166,2,Very informative,"Already packed with things i learned on my own, and more that will help me in the future."
+16167,1,Very Cheaply made,This mask fell apart after only a few kids. I had to keep adding knots to the plastic because it kept pulling out though the holes. Not worth the price
+16168,2,Awesome Digital Camera!,"I love this digital camera. It takes awesome pictures and is so easy to use. I had never used a digital camera before and this one is so easy. It is real easy to carry and handle, too. I highly recommend this camera. I have been very pleased with it. AAA+++"
+16169,2,Will the movies have the cut scenes??,"I was a little disappointed when I bought the DVD box set, and found that the horse head section was not rearranged with the cut scenes! They have them on the extra disc, but not in the movie. I saw it on cable once, and loved it! It made more sense with the killing of the race horse, not just to strong arm the studio head, but because of the abuse of the child star! I really hope they add this option to the Blurays, like they did with all the versions of the Blade Runner movie!"
+16170,1,Disappointing,"I thought this piece looked beautiful and interesting in the picture, but it turned out to be nothing but disappointing. I know it was inexpensive so maybe I should have expected it, but this necklace looks VERY cheap. It resembles some cheap knock-off of a medallion you would find in an adventure movie."
+16171,1,we all make mistakes,"very unhappy after parting with $70AU for a book that I believe at best would get a 5 out of ten for a year 7 school kid, amazon should filter the junk they sell this is the second book from amazon like this. I won't be making a 3rd mistake. anyway this is a thin book with no color photos (very uninspiring) I actually think the author is either PLAYING A joke or the editor HAD A VENDETOR AGAINST THE GENERAL PUBLIC. All in all extremely dissapointed I want my money back amazon. P.S. I'd be skeptical off the other reveiws"
+16172,1,Good for 5th graders,"You have to give Mitch credit, he has a simplistic writing style and tired worn out feel good messages that appeal to the masses. This book is flat-out shallow, and will be enjoyed by the same readers who think the Da Vinci Code is a good book. I laugh at people who say this is a classic. If you're one of those readers whose lips move when you read and you use your finger to keep your place on the page then ""5 People"" is for you!!! Otherwise, don't waste your time like I did."
+16173,2,Why do they cancel all the good shows?,We loved Wonderfalls. The show was creative and brillant. I wish they had made more.
+16174,1,Not helpful,I didn't know there *were* any readers in Alabama. The reviewer below is a moron who is obviously a paid shill for Houtkin; I'm surprised he/she can write.
+16175,1,Not the same 80's DC from So. ILL,"Just for the record, this is not the same band from Southern Illinois that was on Mystic records in the 80's. Cannot comment on this record in all fainess since I only heard the song no.9 that I shared with the members past and present in the real DC, got one good review out of six of us. But for more info on Diet Christ check out msigarmy.com, the site is down now but we are looking for a new host, until then. We diet for your sins.I gave one star for each positive member review on the one tune no.9."
+16176,2,Lowry Fan,"I really enjoyed reading "" Out of Control"". Mark is always Funny and informative. There was aLot in the book that I did not know about Mark. He had been thru a lot but continues to praise the Lord. A good Read."
+16177,2,Great product for the money,I got these for my child as an alternative to the in-ear buds and I have to admit I am surprised by the quality. The sound is clear and the noise cancelling is of a good quality considering the price. This is a good set of cans for an entry level listener.
+16178,1,Meh,"The cover of the book appealed to me, and I love chick lit, but this book was basically just a summary of a few well known chick lit books, and really with no further insight. I think the author had enough good content for a pamphlet, the rest was... meh."
+16179,1,Ouch!,"Horrible recording quality, not the original, single versions...Buy the Billboard series instead."
+16180,1,not what i was expecting: too small,"it seemed like a great idea. the color looked good.upon receiving it, i noticed the color was not as bright as on the picture. not a big deal but it isn't as nice.the real reason i gave only 2 stars is because :1) the top size does not match the bottom size (the top never covers the base completely. the is always one side uncovered, or both.2) when using a 4 oz butter stick, the top does not close. the lid is too shallow to cover properly a 4 oz butter stick!!A little wider and deeper top would have been better."
+16181,2,Jordan is Awesome,This is by far the most gripping series of books I have ever read. I hope this series goes on FOREVER ! Kill off the Forsaken slowly....and bring back Moiraine-We miss her. I buy the hardback edition of each book and do not sleep until I have finished the book !! I have read these books over and over again....I love them
+16182,1,good for teaching commands but leave the eastern philosophy out of it,"I agree wholeheartedly with the author's approach of non-violent training but the whole communicating with your dog using 'direct knowledge' is an Eastern load of whooey. If you start on p 106 with the definitions of classical conditioning, counter-conditioning and operant conditioning and go to the end of the book. You've got a really good book on training your dog. I found the first 105 pages very difficult to stomach as he refers to various 'studies' to prove his points but never gives a citation so you can read the study yourself. This is then mixed with the various New Age and Yogic philosophies that he expouses. If you don't agree with these views of life you can easily bypass the first 105 pages and have a great dog training book."
+16183,2,Works great!,I've had this for a few weeks now and haven't had any problems. It's the cheapest one I could find for a 2GB stick.
+16184,1,Nice Mouse but Bad w/OS X 10.4.10 and Laptops,"I just got off the phone with Logitech support about this. I tried using the MX Revolution with my MacBook Pro. Every time I tried to sleep the MBP with the Logitech Control Center 2.2.2 software, the machine would lock up, forcing a hard power cycle. It would also randomly crash. Logitech said this is a known issue with their 2.2.2 software and OS X 10.4.10 and that a new driver _should_ be out in a month or so. (That's also Leopard compatible.)The mouse itself felt nice in the hand and with a little more tweaking, I think it could have been my favorite, but for now, I'll go back to my only slightly buggy LCC 2.0 software and the MX600 mouse."
+16185,2,excellent mystery,"Dennis Lehane does it again!! He draws you in, and he gets you with the old twisteroo. This is a must read."
+16186,1,Nano block,"The armband fit well and the clip on back of unit was great to clip onto waistband. However, biggest drawback was that the Nano controls were partially blocked by the case, unlike the photo in the ad."
+16187,2,FANTASTIC!,"Road Tools 5874-POCW Podium CoolPad (White)Such a simple idea and such a good product. Its a well made sturdy product that does everything the description says. My lap top keeps cool now and the beauty of that is I can work from bed -a real bonus I would think, for the disabled. The swivel platform makes it easy to show others what I am working on. The weight is negligible so I can travel abroad with the podium and my lap top in my hand luggage. I cannot recommend this Podium CoolPad highly enough. Do yourself a favour - BUY ONE!"
+16188,2,Daughter loved it.,This was a gift for my daughter and she loved it. With it being restored made for a very enjoyable movie. The Beatles are timeless.
+16189,1,Questions unclear and answers inaccurate,"I just bought this book at a local store to help me tutor a student for this exam (I'm a political scientist with an emphasis in American politics), and I found the questions to be misleading, vague, and worse.... inaccurate. The AP site itself provides much better sample questions, as does Princeton Review (which are pulled from the actual exam)."
+16190,1,Don't get all the hype,"I am sorry, this book was totally disappointing...can't actually say too much good about it. Usually I agree with this many reviews....all I can say is reading it was a waste of time."
+16191,2,The scent stops people in their tracks!,"Recently, I was pleasantly surprised when a person stopped and asked me what I was wearing. I cannot remember that ever happening before. And then, it happened again! As my husband and oldest son are my witnesses, a woman passed me, walked into a store, then turned around and walked back up to me to ask what perfume I was wearing. My husband and son were shocked! Several months ago, my daughter and I were testing a new scent for me. Since I'm VERY picky, it could sometimes take me years to find a ""new"" scent. When we tried Light Blue, I had a cold and told my daughter I would have to try it again once I felt better, but even with a cold, it smelled special! A few weeks later, my daugher surprised me with a bottle for my birthday and I've been wearing it since! I love perfumes that contain a full citrus body that smells clean and fresh. Nothing musky or gingery will do. Light Blue perfectly compliments my other perfumes, Chanel's Christalle and Casaque."
+16192,2,beautiful!,"I bought this pair of earrings for my wife as a xmas present, and was not disappointed..she loved it...but i thought it could have been a little bigger. In my view the picture looked alot larger, but in reality its only about 1"" long. Other than that, its a beautiful design, shiny, and looks great on her."
+16193,2,Cradle is nice... I find the light annoying,"I would suggest this to anyone who plunks down the cash for the Tungsten T5. The cradle is reasonably sturdy/heavy/unlikely to fall over when your PDA is sitting in it and looks reasonably nice on your desk. I also think it is much easier than messing around with the cheap adapter and USB cable which comes in the box.The only thing I don't like about it is the annoying light that is ALWAYS on! If you look in the picture, it is the light gray/non-silver part. It catches the corner of my eye and has been surprisingly distracting -- so much so that I have had to unplug it. Otherwise, I'd have to say it's great and give it all five stars!"
+16194,2,Absolutely Glorious!!,"I knew from other reviews, not to mention the Tony awards, that Ragtime's music was someting special. I was, however, totally and utterly blown away. From the opening chords to the final stanza, the entire score is pure Broadway magic. My only regret about purchasing the CD... I didn't buy it sooner!!"
+16195,1,Loss of memory,"He memory didnt work, at all! After installing it the computer didn't start. Even after replacing the old memory. I had to take it to a computer shop to have it checked and buy new memory there."
+16196,1,Dont waste your time,"I only bought this to see one of the designers, a friend of mine went out with him... its a stupid show."
+16197,2,Inspired Words?,"This book is simply a refutation of the bible as literal fact, and divine inspiration. Mr. Mckinsey, in this work, finds little need to make complex theological arguments, he instead simply uses the bible itself to expose its own falibility. Throughout 25 brief, yet powerful chapters Mckinsey shows us why the ""bible is simply the the flawed writings of some very fallible men"". Proving in the end that simple logic is the best defense against the raving, illogical arguments so common to the fundamentalist mind. This book is for anyone who wants to examine the bible in a fair and logic way, one no focused on the literary value of the book, but on the destructive nature of its message. Mormonism and Islam are also discussed along with the seemingly countless versions of the old and new testaments. As Mckinsey states, see why in the end, ""the bible is its own worst enemy""."
+16198,1,WASTE OF VALUABLE TIME,"OSTENSIBLY THIS IS A BIOGRAPHY OF DOC HOLIDAY. IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN THE FASHIONS OF THE DAY - MALE AND FEMALE AND THE COLOR OF THE WINDOWS IN THE SALOONS THIS BOOK IS FOR YOU. IF YOU WANT TO KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT DOC READ THE FUNNY PAGES BECAUSE THEY ARE MORE ACCURATE. AS A BIOGRAPHY THIS BOOK IS SO BAD IT NEVER SHOULD HAVE BEEN PUBLISHED. I WOULD AVOID IT. SHE DOES ALMOST NO IN DEPTH INVESTIGATION OF HOLIDAY, ALL SHE DOES IS TELL WHERE HE HAS GONE OR WHAT HE THINKS. I THOUGHT ALL THE MIND READERS BELONGED TO THE X-MEN. SHE DOES A GREATER DISSERVICE TO WYATT EARP. SHE WRITES AND REPRINTS ALL THE BAD PRESS HE GOT AFTER THE OK CORRAL AND DUMPS ON HIM ENDLESSLY. SHE OBVIOUSLY DOES NOT LIKE HIM AND MAKES NO ATTEMPT TO INVESTIGATE IF WHAT SHE PRINTS ABOUT HIM IS TRUE OR NOT. SHE JUST WANTS HIM TO LOOK BAD."
+16199,1,Get A LIFE LISTEN TO REAL METAL !,How can a person like slipknot or any nu metal band and still have the nerve to call themselves metalheads !!! It is because nu metal and hardcore music that power metal is not as popular as it should be !!! They are not metal they sound like morons !!
+16200,1,Storming Out,"I'll sum it up fast and easy - not a good movie! As a matter of fact, I'm a little tired of hearing how great this movie was. I felt the performances were forced, and at times downright cornball as they come (for example, witness the scene between John C. Reily and his son in his truck). Horrible, horrible, horrible. What's good about this movie? Stunning visual effects. That's about the only reason to watch this film."
+16201,1,Nothing New,"This is pretty much just yet anothe rreissue of these Gamera movies with little extra on the disk, not worth it."
+16202,2,"Cheap, but a decent deal","The cutting board is solid and usefulI wanted this mostly for the tools. The cheese shaver was important.The tools metal are very thick, and not vented. The shaver slices too thick for striping thin wax.For the price I'll adapt."
+16203,2,It's almost as good as reading the book!,"I read the book before I saw this video and what struck me was how true to the original story this version is. The BBC does an excelent job with beautiful settings and by following not only the plot of the book but also the dialoge. And Timothy Dalton isn't that hard on the eyes either, though by the end of the story, you are almost convinced that he really is as ugly as the book protrays his character to be. The BBC does not hurry through the story as many of the other versions do. This is a 2 tape set and anyone who loves the book will not be disapointed in this version of the story. Just make sure you have plenty of time to sit down and enjoy it. It is well worth it!"
+16204,2,The Adventure Continues,"In book #4 of the Clique series, Massie, Claire, Alicia, Dylan, and Kristen continue their adventures at Octavian Day School. The Love Struck Valentine's Day Dance is rapidly approaching, and all of the girls have set their eye on that special someone. However, when Alicia's Spanish cousin, Nina, arrives and starts dominating Octavian Day School, things get ugly, and fast. Alliances shift, boys get chased, and the drama is served up fresh in this fabulous new read from Lisi Harrison."
+16205,2,Good quality ear phones,I liked the clear sound quality due to USB digital connection. I had not experienced this quality with regular analog connections. The only thing is that the ear covers are little small (suitable for kids upto 12 years!) and tight for adult ears.
+16206,1,"How about a review of this EDITION, not the work?","Can anyone please tell me if this edition is worth a darn? Obviously, this book is a classic; reviews of the work seem redundant in 2009. What I really, really want to know is this: is this a good edition to work with for a student? Are there notes, study guides, or commentaries? Chapters headings, index, tables for reference?? Which edition of this book is the best?"

+16208,1,you get what you pay for,"subwoofer should not be called that: it's tiny, and distorts if the slightest bass is put through it. Not good for music, not good for gaming. Steer clear."
+16209,1,There isn't a zero-star rating?,"Another ""Lifetime"" plot, another set of poorly conceived characters, another bad piece of writing by Oates. Does anyone really take her work seriously? If so, can they enlighten me as to why?"
+16210,1,Lindsey is a false prophet?,When this book first came out it stated that Jesus would return 40 years after the founding of the Jewish nation. We are now 20 years apast the date Lindsey gave for the return of Jesus. I guess that makes Mr.Lindsey the leading false prophet in the evangelical church today.
+16211,1,Wolf Whistle,"not a very good horn, it is not as loud as i thought it would be and the whistle is very slow and it did not come with any wiring for the button or a button its self.. but after purchasing everything install was very easy... i would not recommend this horn to anyone get a better quality horn"
+16212,1,Disappointing,"This felt like a short story that they tried to stretch to a full novel (less than 300 pages). Really fluffy, nothing story and seem like a very rushed ending. All in all a disappointing addition. Maybe the Pern story is just mined out."
+16213,2,"A stinging work, like your tongue on a nine-volt battery...","Seldom does one see writing of such buttery, lingering nuance combined with the cold gut-punch of truth. Yet Orlando has managed just that -- both lace and iron, soothing on a level deeper than most will have encountered outside a good colonic. Orlando's seeming roughness gives way, as he draws for us the portrait of a Master Chief not so sure of himself as afraid of his own addicitions and unrelenting greed, to reveal the soul and feathery wing-beats of a young poet-god. It's tangy stuff, to be sure, yet steeped in a sense of goodness that may well fill the reader with knowing beyond sense, and that oft-sought Deeper Understanding. Here here!"
+16214,2,Great e-version of a classic,Good rendition of the classic book; nicely augmented with illustrations and additional historical material. Backstories are always nice to read. Well worth the price and the time to read.
+16215,1,Look elsewhere,"Like many others, I could not get this to work with a Presta valve.My old (lost) blackburn is fine. This thing seems to be designed very poorly."
+16216,2,contest winning mask,"Not sure why the other person complained, this mask alone won my son a couple 1st prize ribbons and tons and tons of compliments. The mask isnt worn for comfort but for the cool factor.Everyone who saw my son in this mask had to come up to him and compliment him. Its a really neat mask. Its about the most realistic you can get for anywhere near this cost. It did come folded just a tiny bit, but it unfolded easily and held up well. I even bought a second mask to hang in my boys playroom.Its simply cool, children and adults both expressed how neat it is."
+16217,1,"Not the ""VHS"" version","I had purchased the VHS version of this show some years ago. It is a great video. Jack Perkins has one of those great ""booming baritone"" voices for doing voice-over work and a great personality to go along with it. When I saw that a DVD of the show was available, I bought it. Within minutes of playing it, I discovered that this DVD version is NOT simply the VHS version on DVD but an entirely different one. So if you're thinking that this DVD is just a ""remastered"" version of the original VHS version, be forewarned. I can't speak highly enough of the ""original"" VHS version. Absolutely one of my favorite Christmas videos."
+16218,2,Thanks,Originally my book never came but I was given the book again with no charge! I am very satisfied with my purchase and I will be using this buyer again in the future!
+16219,2,"Great Cable, does the job","The cable does not give static when plugged in to any port, which makes it ideal for listening to music on any device where you need a little more cord length. The cord itself is durable as I've seen. Unlike most which are about as thick as headphone wire, this one is about as thick as Ethernet cable. The only complaint I have is that the silver caps on the end can unscrew off, so just be a little careful when plugging in. It the unscrew just screw them back on, no big deal. Overall a great product for the price."
+16220,2,the best of the coffee pod simulators,"Out of all the alternatives to coffee pods, I have found the ""Ecopad"" to be the best simulation of the cup of coffee produced by use of the coffee pod. Nearly the same rich foamy, frothy top to the cup of coffee itself which is the whole reason I have gone this direction in coffee making. This is the best of all the alternatives to coffee pods provided by the coffee maker company, and I get to use my favorite coffees."
+16221,2,Outland - BD,Absolutely great movie. And what's best is that the movie starts right away!! No junk at the beginning. This High Noon In Space works for me.
+16222,2,Great Stuff,"This guy really knows how to put what he is feeling onto this CD. Great stuff. Give it a try, you will warm to it then you will love it."
+16223,1,bad apple,"I had problems with my new ipod, went to the retail store. After waiting a ridiculous amount of time at the arrogantly titled ""genius"" bar I was told it would take a week to ""diagnose"" the problem and they weren't sure they could fix it. Very poor service. Another problem from Apple"
+16224,1,Just placing my vote AGAINST it,"I vote against these theatrical versions (in favor of the extended versions).Studios, I promise, when the extended version comes out I'll give it a 5. Sound fair?"
+16225,1,cell phone charger not fit,The multifit charger sounds good but was too big to fit into the charger opening on the phone. It would have cost more to return than to buy a new one!
+16226,1,Out of Africa,"IT was very hard for us to make this movie the right size for our 52"" screen. It's a great movie but the sizing is still a problem for us. Maybe our son - who is more video-smart than we are - can help us out.But quality is good - just the sizing is all off kilter."
+16227,1,reveiw,"i am a fan of paranormal fantasy and this book is not really bad but neither is a good onethe characters etc have no real depth, the story has many floundering also if it is quite funny"
+16228,1,What?,"What's wrong with the missing ones? Around The World, Can't Stop, Aeroplane...WTF??? GREATEST hits my ass."
+16229,1,Very Thin!,"This apron is made of cotton, but is extremely thin. More of a gauzy material than anything that would actually protect your clothing during cooking. And for the price it does not live up to expectations."
+16230,1,Downside vs Upside....,"Downside:No digital copy !? Really -- wow, cheap...And no discount coupon or rebate offered for people who ponied up the $30 for the first Blu-ray release.Upside:16 minutes of footage.....My vote on this one ---- Pass, rent it maybe for the 16 minutes of footage, but its not worth buying."
+16231,1,average,most of the material here is dated synth work outs that were hot in 83 but sound stale now.however the first single still holds up to this day Owner of a Lonely Heart.the song still sounds as fresh today as it did almost 20 years back.but most of the album sounds formula driven there after.
+16232,2,Best Book on C Programming - Bar None!,"Better than Kernighan and Ritchie. Better than Harbison and Steele. Not for beginners to programming in general, but by far the best book for programmers looking to learn the C programming language. The emphasis on pointers is absolutely essential to serious C programming, and this is the only book I know of that is so oriented. You may study K&R or H&S, then go to look at some Linux kernel source and find yourself mystified. Not so with Reek's book. The former books teach pointers to be sure, but the level of detail and examples are insufficient for serious programming. The Reek book fills this void. An outstanding book and very readable as well. Buy it."
+16233,2,squire,"this was a great book. i knew cleon had a crush on kel from the previous book, but i never thought it would go that far. i wish there had been more romance between the two, and that he had been there at her coronation. i think that would have made this a lot better. still, i couldn't put the book down until i had read it twice! great book, two thumbs up!"
+16234,2,Not really about the Robot..,"Hugo is a film that was miscast. From the advertisements it appears to be child's film about a mechanical robot. From the trailer we assume that there is something magical about this little robot and that it is the subject of the film. If you see the movie with that in mind, waiting for the robot to take on a life of its own, you will likely become bored or disappointed and lack interest in the real storyline. In reality, the robot is more prop than actor. This might explain why Hugo didn't get a wider audience when it made its theatrical run. Like the real subject of the movie, the fictionalized life of turn of the century film maker and magician, Georges Méliès, there is slight of hand, but in this case misleading the audience does not amaze them. See Hugo, but view it with curiosity about the magic of film making and how synchronicity brings unexpected solutions."
+16235,2,Worth Waiting For,"It seems that Olivia Newton-John doesn't get older, she gets better. This is her best singing to date. Soulful, passionate and beautiful. The arrangements are exquisite from start to finish and Phil Ramone's producing is top notch."
+16236,1,"Great Concept, POOR WRITING!","This book is not even very good, let alone worthy of being a Hugo winner. The concept of first contact is interesting but there is no actual contact with the aliens until nearly the end. The author does tell ""dual stories"" of the humans and aliens, but it's way too easy to get mixed up because he gives the humans and aliens extremely similar names. Pop Quiz, Who Is the Alien? Sherkaner Underhill or Pham Nuwen? You get the feeling that Asians are the only humans to survive into the far future, because almost all the humans have Asian-sounding names ... except for Anne Reynolt, for some inexplicable reason. And you never learn who the Emergents were, where they came from, or why they are so hostile to the Qeng Ho (who sound like aliens but aren't)."
+16237,1,High vibration,"Vibrates at the low speed setting - both wheels wobble excessively - probably due to wheel unbalance. When the speed is increased, the rotational frequency at one speed excites one of the natural lateral modes (frequencies) of the eye shield causing it to vibrate approximately 3/4 inch which introduces a clicking sound. Tried to improve the balance by rotating the collar that secures the wheel - with no success. I will be returning the device within the next few days. I am not yet sure whether I will request a refund or request another grinder. I like the variable feature the Delta grinder offers. I might also select the six in grinder. The smaller wheels might mitigate any unbalance and vibration."
+16238,2,Gift for son,Looks like the kind of movies my son would like so I bought it for him for his birthday. He enjoyed it very much.
+16239,2,Guilty Pleasure,If you think the music from CHiPS is groovy you are gonna love this. It is beyond cliche. Drop a track in your chill electronica mix at your next martini party.
+16240,2,Looking foward to taking this one to Disney!,"WOW! We have had this one for a little while now and we absolutely love it! The handles are just right for me (5'2"") and mu husband who is slightly taller. It maneuvers well and handles our rocky driveway with ease. I am not sure about the staining as our daughter hasn't eaten in there yet but the milk she has dropped wiped off easily enough. So far...I like!"
+16241,1,Won't keep a charge...,"This battery won't keep a charge.After charging the battery with the Olympus battery charger, my camera can only take 3 pictures before it indicates ""battery empty.""Also, the model on the battery reads 60206BA, but the battery I wanted to buy reads 51209BA."
+16242,2,"Great book, thoroughly enjoyed",Very well outlined and descriptive of doctrinal truth. I enjoyed reading this book. It has been a favorite of mine.
+16243,1,Get what you paid for,"Bought this printer 1 year ago. After the first month the control chip died and returned it for a new printer. After 1 year the printer died again, again it was the control chip but unfortunately the printer was out of warranty. The chip cost $150, the printer cost me $200. I just bought a new black toner. I would rate this a 4 had it not been for the quality issues."
+16244,2,Works great for us!,"We have had these shakers for about a year. We love them. We use for shakes, carry drinks, etc.... They do not leak."
+16245,2,Riddle of the rock,"Well written, covers the 1946 3 day battle as well. It speculates that Morris and the Anglin brothers might have been picked up by a boat."
+16246,2,An anime worth purchasing,"I was first introduced to Lodoss from the Dreamcast game and got me interested. Since I'm a fan of medieval themed stories I didn't hesitate and bought this without second thoughts. I'm glad I did, it's one Anime I consider a classic and I recommend it to anyone!"
+16247,1,Road to Nowhere,"This book contains very little on Pres. McKinley or Pres. Roosevelt, but focuses more on the life and trial of Leon Czolgosz, McKinley's assassin. This might be interesting if there was a story to it. There isn't. Why did Czolgosz kill the President? He was doing his duty, to quote Czolgosz. Wow! That is exciting reading! The majority of this book is psyco-babble trying to understand why a person would kiil the president, or how or why American society changed to create anarchists.There is nothing to analyze here. the heart of man is wicked and these things have and will continue to happen because mankind is fallen and we live in a fallen world.From whence come wars and fightings among you? come they not hence, even of your lusts that war in your members? (James 4:1 KJV)"
+16248,2,A Glorious Mess.,"As with Flipper's classic trainwreck ""Generic Flipper"", ""Meat Puppets"" elicits a type of knee-jerk reaction along the lines of ""What the hell were these guys thinking?!"". After a few listens, however, the album reveals a level of depth, creativity, and humor that few of the Puppet's contemporaries could ever dream of approaching.This isn't the militant, humorless, paint-by-numbers hardcore being churned out by the majority of bands at this time. Rather, it's a hallucinogenic blur of blazing drum beats, brilliantly sloppy guitars, and manic, unintelligible vocals.If ""Meat Puppets"" had been recorded during his lifetime, it probably would have been Salvidor Dali's favorite record."
+16249,2,Cute episode,"I'm not quite sure about the historical accuracy of this episode, but it is a cute one nonetheless, and the Tiger Talisman makes a comeback as Jackie is split up once again into Jackie-Lite and Jackie-Dark. The troll is an amusing villain with a fun way of talking. Two thumbs up for this episode."
+16250,1,Don't bother - just use the suction cup,Unless you need to get the GPS really close to you on the dash the suction cup mount provided in the package is smaller and more convenient. I wouldn't bother with this.
+16251,2,I am Not the only one...,"It was nice to read of Sue's experience, as I am now going down a simalar path with my mother. There were many things she said that are happening in my case and it was indeed good to know I was not alone. I have similar thoughts and feelings and to see the similarities to my mom's case was enlightening. The book will make the next steps easier as I know much more what to expect from the disease and what I can do and to asuage my guilt feelings. Thanks for writing this."
+16252,2,You won't be sorry,"This was a wonderful book. When I first started reading this book I felt it was kind of boring but, I decided to keep reading. I am glad that I decided to do so.The author did a wonderful job of describing each one of the characters and what led them to become ladies in waiting.Marlene the preacher's wife could see the wrong in other people but was unable to see the wrong in herself or her son Malcolm. As time progressed she learned the error of her ways. Because of her not discipling her son correctly, her husband suffered the consequences.Keisha's character was kind of disappointing to me because I wanted more for her.Rosalinda really surprised me when she developed backbone and stuck to her decision. A wise one at that.Alexis was my favorite character because she had to be brought back to reality the hard way but she persevered.All in all this was a very good book and I am glad I decided to read it."
+16253,2,Great Product / Great Juice / Cleaning Nightmare,"If you want to get a REAL natural juice you must have to get this product, You can prepare an apple martini with natural apple juice... For example.Try to use the device when you have time to wash it... The Power Juicer is Dishwasher safe but anyway you spend a lot of time separating all the pieces.Do not use Strawberry, Banana or Avocado... Try it with Apples, Pears, Papaya, Peach, Pineapple, Broccoli, Carrots and you'll love it..."
+16254,2,Great read!,"Always a fan of follett, I picked this one up based off the great amazon reviews. I haven't been able to put it down. I'm loving following along with the subjects of the book as they unravel the mysteries of war time."
+16255,2,TURN THE RADIO OFF IS A SKA GEM,"On their first full-length album, Reel Big Fish, the little ska band from Cali that could, keep the fun at a maximum from start to finish. While this is not exactly the most thought-provoking, earth-shattering music put on record, it is also not the most hollow effort either. In fact the album greatly makes up what it lacks in complexity with a great sense of wit and humor. From the opening track, ""Sell Out"" to the final track, ""Alternative, Baby"", the band successfully walks the plank between tunefulness and self-indulgence on the tracks ""Snoop Dog Baby""and ""All I Want is More"" as well as the fine line between wittiness and nonsense despite tackling touchy issues like lesbianism, ""She Has a Girlfriend Now"" and vegetarianism, ""Say Ten"". An album with many memorable tunes, Reel Big Fish's ""Turn the Radio Off"" is a keeper for any fan of fun, witty, catchy music."
+16256,1,Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.....,"I don't want anyone else to make the mistake I did and purchase this book. It sounded funny and quirky, but this was one of the VERY few books that I gave up on reading. I made it to the fourth chapter and couldn't take anymore. The biggest problem with the book was that it sped from one idea/thought/etc. to another without any transitions or indication of a changed subject. It was like reading a stream of consciousness book without the finely crafted hallmarks of that style. Save your bucks...buy Jemima J. instead!"
+16257,1,YUCK!,"Okay, I guess I'm weird or something, but I really did not get this book. What was the point, the plot, or whatever? It just seemed like some guy hanging out in Savannah meeting a bunch of weirdos. I can't believe such people like this even exist. This book was so well hyped that I felt like I'd be missing out on something if I didn't read it. Now I know what that something is. Like, maybe a migraine!"
+16258,1,Can you feel this? Because I can't.,"I like Palahniuk. I just think he's playing himself out. Up until this point, ""Choke"" was the only book I hated. I wouldn't say I hate ""Diary,"" but I sure as hell didn't like it. The one good thing about it is that at least it is a little different. But he does rewrite his own dialogue and reuse little repetitive techniques that have been around since his first book. When I first read his books, they were new and great, original and raw. Now...yeah, he's overplayed in his own way. I can't feel this. Not even if you put a needle through my arm. I recoomend his earlier works (""Fight Club,"" ""Survivor,"" ""Invisible Monsters"") and of his most recent works, ""Lullaby."""
+16259,1,Is being able to hear important to you?,"This product frequently has static when you're on the phone. In addition, the connection between the ear piece and my phone sometimes just disappears for no apparent reason (always while I'm driving of course). As a result, I may answer the call and only then find out that I can't use the ear piece -- very inconvenient and illegal in some states. Redoing the Bluetooth setup is no fun either while I'm driving -- and that sometimes takes several efforts."
+16260,2,"The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly","This disc is interesting for several reasons...The inclusion of ""wah wah"" from the MTV special.(the good). The butchering of ""City don`t cry"". (the bad), and the absence of ""Thank-you"" (the Ugly)...was Remastering really worth it? the sound on the original was not bad...(If page and plant want to remaster something, how about the Horrible sounding ""Walking into Clarksdale""??)FYI..the actual name of ""yallah"" was always ""the truth explodes""PS>Iagree with mark, ""Life begin Again"" off Plant`s anthology disc is Awesome.(afro-celt soundsystem)."
+16261,2,Interesting and Informative,"I saw this video and immediately thought that it would make a good gift for some of my family members who stuggle with their weight. The video is really well done and Dr. Robert Pritikin presents well. Pritikin covers a lot of interesting information in the video. The topics that registered the most with me were the ones on how the human body reacts to surgar, and the tips on how best to develop an exercise routine. The video confirmed a lot of the advice that I have received over the years from other people."
+16262,2,Wonderful book for ethnobotanists,"This book is an interesting review of all the new methodologies use to research in ethnobotany. It also show how plants are important for humans, and the relationship between humans and plants. In addition, it contains a lot interesting information about the plants and their differents properties; such as medicinal, food, etc."
+16263,2,Childhood memories of the 80's,"I remember watching this movie in the theater and on television when I was young. I used to love the scene when they sing boys/girls of rock and roll. And now, when I'm much older and it's been a great many years since I've last seen it...it's still great. I still like the music, but now I like all the music instead of just one or two songs.Well, if you used to love this movie and you can still watch cartoons, it's great. If you have kids who love music, it's great. And for 15 bucks, you get the movie and the soundtrack! For a nice dose of nostalgia, it feels like a great deal to me. Now if only they'd release the widescreen version of this movie, it'd be absolutely perfect."
+16264,2,Good,My rabbit loved it the moment he got it. He tosses it and stands on it. SO cute. When he's done with it I'm most certainly going to buy him a new one.
+16265,1,Bread Maker,"Initial use was good. However, six weeks later, I went to make bread and four out of five did not raise. Yes, I bought all new ingredients."

I am sick and tired of made in China and made in Taiwan. my X-mas bonus was spent on this. initial DVD player.! where is the service on Initial? I tryed calling. No answer"
+16267,1,Gaynor rehashes old alternative med news,"Gaynor is now sounding just like Depak Chopra, Bernie Segal and Andrew Weil. There is not much new in this volume and it reads as if a ghost writer cranked it out according to a Gaynor ""formula"". If this is the first time you've ever heard the empowered patient/you deserve a better doctor argument then this is not a bad quick fix. Gaynor's earlier books have greater nutritional value and actual content. This is a beginner's feel-better guide to a better cancer patient experience. It reminds me of Andrew Weil's trick of repackaging the same stuff ten ways to create new selling ""opportunities""."
+16268,1,"Issue fails to live up to claims made for it, by far!","The label claims this issue to be far superior to anything previous & I eagerly awaited hearing it. It sounds thin, harsh & impossible to listen to for any extended period. A direct comparison with another available issue shows it in an extremely poor light.I'd seriously recommend anybody drawn in by the claims made for this issue not to waste their money on it."
+16269,2,Paleographer's Best Friend,"Michelle Brown has gathered examples from just about all of the Classical, Late Antique, and medieval Latin book-hands, from the extremely difficult-to-decipher Roman cursive to the all-too-clear Caroline Minuscule. Good introductions are offered for each script as well as copious notes on scribal errors/alterations, distinctive traits, and decorative elements. Each example displays a plate of a particular script on the right-hand page and a description/identification on the left. Also, there is a brief transcription (about 15-20 lines) on the left with all the words separated and the abbreviations expanded. Subject matter ranges from Virgil to biblical passages, with many things in-between. This is a must have for the student taking a paleography course or just interested in medieval book culture. Also recommended: Barbara Shailor, the Medieval Book."
+16270,2,One of Le Guin's best,"Despite being less well-known than her Earthsea books or The Left Hand of Darkness, Dispossessed is one of Le Guin's best, a fine political allegory in SF form. The story revolves around the cultural clash of a member of an anarchist world encountering a society much like ours.(Side note: if you think anarchism means throwing bricks through Starbucks windows, you need to watch less TV. Anarchism is a political ""ism"" with as long a history as Marxism. The easiest way to convey it to an American is as a ""libertarian socialist"".)"
+16271,1,Incompatible with Windows XP,"Running this on Windows 98, I did have some problems, such as poor video and graphic quality, but when I upgraded to Windows XP and went to Kensington's website to find out about updated drivers, I was told that 'due to an unforseen compatability issue', the camera wouldn't work with Windows 2000 or XP. so before you buy this camera you might want to think about whether's it's worth not buying XP...or if you already have XP, don't waste your money."
+16272,1,give it a miss,"Lois Meade is the least likeable character to come into British fiction in a long time. She is combative, unfriendly, unappreciative of her mother, and rude to everyone she meets. She is angry all the time and never pleasant to anyone. The mysteries she solves usually turn out to be accidents or natural deaths, and are easy to figure out. The ony reason to read these books is for the interesting village characters around her, but Lois is certainly the least interesting person in the village."
+16273,1,2 1/2,"Limp Bizkit is a band that all us Metal Heads really love to hate, but they arent that bad, just way to freakin over-rated. I have no idea what the hell what the deal with their guitar player wearing that stupid mask was all about, and he really isnt that good, so when he left, I wonder why fans thought it was the end of the world. They have some cool songs here, but once again, nothing special, and Fred Durst is an freaking idiot, but if you look past that, you might find some of the material enjoyable, but once again, there are way better things to listen to then this, so I really only recomend it if you are in the mood for some ""pop"" hard rock."
+16274,1,"Works well, but not durable","Tel-Time IV Talking Watch-English-UnisexI have bought many (at least 5) of these watches for my Mother in Law. The watch is functional, easy to set with a dial, rather than a non-intuitive button sequence to set the time. The problem is with the durability of the rubber strap on the watch, which is where it always fails, right next to the lugs on the watch. This watch used to be $9.95, which made it less painful to replace frequently. The most recent one lasted about 2 months!I am going to try a different one, with a slip on metal band, and see how that works. She is hard of hearing as well, and this watch was loud enough.So, my overall opinion is....good AND bad!"
+16275,2,CNN Cold War DVD,"I received the DVD series this afternoon and here is what I found:Sufficient container with six (6) DVD's containing 24 episodesOnline access to ""Fixster"" so one could view series via a ""cloud"" on iPad, iPhone, laptop (it works).I viewed the first episode and the last to view them and they seem to be mirror images of the original VHS series.I also checked out the episodes in question (Soldiers of God) and everything was there. I did not notice any editing from the original series.Conclusion. If you teach world Civ & the Cold War get this series. Far cheaper than the original VHS series. The content works well for California socialscience grade 10 world civilization standards. I have created questions for each of the episodes for use in the classroom and is far more thorough thanwhat the Pearson text(my district uses) offers. Get it. If nothing else it is a tax write-off. Get it before someone pulls it from Amazon.Regards,"
+16276,2,Amazing difference in my bedroom,"After using it for just 2 hours in my bedroom, I started to noticed that the air I breathed in was clearer and I felt easier to breath! Only con is that it's super loud, even on the lowest setting. I leave it on during day when I'm at work and turn it off at night, so the noise doesn't bother me. I've used many small air purifiers before, but they didn't have the same effect as this large! I'm so glad that I decided to step it up with this larger unit."
+16277,2,Great arrows!,"These arrows fly straight and true at 30 yards shot from my Horton crossbow. The Horton doesn't seem to mind shooting Barnetts! Happy that they come with field points. Had to shoot three successive arrows into three separate 3 inch target circles so I would not split one arrow with another. Learned that the hard way by ""Robin Hooding"" one arrow with another.Archer Tom"
+16278,1,Did get what I purchased,The book I received is not the one I ordered. Though it has the same name as the one I ordered it was an older version (10 years old) most of the coding examples used in the book is out of date.This will be the last time I buy a book from you.
+16279,1,"Poor Quality, Sounds Great!","These are admittedly the best earbuds I have listened to. However the quality of the speaker cable is so low, these things will only last a couple months of regular use. I maybe wear them 100 times before they're done.I would pay $100 for these with a quality chord, but that day probably won't ever come."
+16280,1,"Quick, initially interesting but then seems to lose focus","Substantively not as good as ""The Tipping Point"", but delivered with the same easy prose. Especially in the beginning, there are some interesting recounts of real life situations. Throughout the book the author draws some conclusions that are tenuous at best and thus the book is probably better if read with a critical eye. The number of copies sold may be misleading in regards to the real world, business knowledge that can be drawn from the book. All in all, I recommend this book as simple, leisure read that should be approached critically."
+16281,2,What A Film!!!!!,"This is one of my favorite films, if not my favorite. You really get to understand ""The Wall"" much better and see what it is really about. I've been trying to won this video for quite some time, but can't find it. If you know where I can get it, please mail me. See This Movie and Buy it if you can!!!!"
+16282,2,Ticket Saving Device,"The company needs to be more thorough in giving the purchaser the full info with regards to the merchandise being shipped. I had to go to them to get the tracking info to find out when I would be receiving my item. When I received it, I wasn't all too impressed with the packing that was done to protect my purchase. I used to work for UPS, so I know how things are handled there. For the most part, I am very satisfied with my purchase. It was by far the cheapest and the reviews were very clear on the shipper and the product."

+16285,2,The Epiphany,"This is THE Classic Rock album. The Beatles are stunning in their song writing and song arrangments. Lennon/McCartney/Harrison/Starr are brilliant. This album has everything that you want:All out rockers: ""Helter Skelter"", ""Back in the USSR"", ""Birthday"".Ballets: ""Blackbird"", ""Dear Prudence"".Comical: ""Piggies"", ""Wild Honey Pie"".Psychedelic: Revolution 9.If I were to pick only one Beatles LP, this would be it. From the opening notes of 'Back in the USSR', to the closing strings in 'Good Night', this album shines. 5 Stars!"
+16286,1,Never Got To Use It?,"I purchased this item on Amazon. Received it and plastic of the grill leg was damaged. Amazon was great and sent a replacement, no questions asked. The replacement was all so damaged. Once again, without question Amazon offered a replacement or refund. I took the refund. Weber needs to pack better or find a company that ships better?"
+16287,1,One Bad Bug I Encountered,"I got this phone after having a Nokia 3595 and a Motorola V66, and overall I like the V300 much more. Except there is one problem that has plagued me since the day I got my phone. There is a bug where when you open the flip screen the screen and background will short out, so you have to close the phone and re-open it multiple times. Which in many cases has made me drop phone calls. The phones features are great, and when the screen is working I have only had fun with it. If anyone knows how I can fix this without contacting t-mobile or motorola and waiting weeks for a new phone please e-mail me."
+16288,2,This Movie Was Enjoyable,I really enjoyed this movie. It was a very funny movie and worth seeing. I would watch it again and again.
+16289,2,Great Movie!!,This is a great movie about an ex-boxer returning to his South American for revenge.It's a must see!!
+16290,2,More Tom as Jesse,"I like the character of Jesse Stone. I added this movie to my collection, but the ending has me worried about the future of Jesse in Paradise. I'm hoping things will be able to work out in the next (is there a next?) movie, so Jesse can go back to Paradise. More for Tom as Jesse."
+16291,1,Travel 50 & Beyond Subscription - bad deal,I have never received a copy of this magazine that I ordered in August of last year! They didn't hesitate to take my money though! I have no idea if the magazine has any redeemable articles in it at all.
+16292,2,perfect,"just as i expected. I bought it for elinchrom flashes, it fits tight, but fits and its cheaper than elinchrom honeycomb grid set"
+16293,1,Problem after problem,"This program would be great, but you have to figure out how to do it all on your own. Tech support for pinnacle is terrible, and there are no instructions. There is a manual, but it is not very helpful. I kept running into little gliches in the program where I would be working on a project and all of the sudden something would quit working until I shut the program down and restarted it. If there were decent instructions with it and the program would work right every time I used it, I would love it."
+16294,2,Interesting Story Hampered by film maker's questionable choices,"Watching this movie while awaiting the lunar eclipse was a great combination!The script was thought provoking and mentally sticky. I was moved as characters struggled against the erosion of long held, comfortable belief structures. However, certain acting and staging choices were distracting. Sure, a yo-yo could be symbolic of something, and movers taking the furniture out from under the characters a metaphor for something else, but both elements seemed inauthentic. Several characters were played as cartoons. I would love to see this movie in the hands of an Grade A filmaking team rather than the B team."
+16295,1,Recipes are time consuming & difficult to prepare,"Unlike some of the other readers, i bought this book for the recipes, not for the pictures. I tried preparing some of the recipes and I found them to be time consuming, yes the food is exotic, but I don't have three or more hours of time to spare, which is what alot of these recipes require. The final results are good, you end up with delicious meals, I'm just saying they all take longer than the book says they do and some of the instructions are not clearly written."
+16296,2,my favorite!,"this eyeliner is the best! i love it, it lasts all day, and its easy to apply. its too bad they dont sell these in stores anymore in the US because i LOVE this! i recommend this to anybody who wants a great eyeliner."
+16297,1,Dry and Disappointing,"I had to do a rare book search for this book and when it came I couldn't wait to dive in. But my enthusiasm quickly subsided into utter boredom. Maybe the author was there and maybe some consider this a WW2 classic but I found it very dry reading and very easy to put down. Besides that fact, it is very biased for Montgomery and when there was blame to place it usually and many times unfairly went to the Americans. For a good history of the War in Normandy try Keegans' 'six armies' or one of the individual's histories like 'roll me over' or 'if you survive' and leave this book where it belongs...in a rare book store."
+16298,2,Excellent gloves,"Agree with other reviewers. Tough and durable, good padding. They could use a little more padding -- I do dips on a machine with unpadded grips, and sometimes feel the pressure on my palms, but these gloves do much better than alternatives that I have."
+16299,2,rules- know them and love them!,"I found this book to be easy to read as far as rule books go. I have read many rule books on basketball (namely the high school, national federation rule book) and this one reads by far the easiest. Instead of reading like an outline, the book follows rules with plays of application, making it easier to picture the rule and its enforcement. I recommend this book for anyone from the official wanting to move up to referee the college game, or the fan who wants to increase his or her knowledge of the college game."
+16300,2,The Spirit of Broadway--Excellent,"This is a a lively, spirited, entertaining, old-fashioned Broadway-ish recording, with absolutely wonderful singing throughout. I cannot think of a better cast--everyone is great and really takes on their role entirely. And of course, the songs are excellent! This should be on the wish list of every Guys and Dolls fan, and if you are not yet familiar with this musical, then this is the recording to begin with. Simply first-class all around . . . theater music at its very best. Wonderful."
+16301,1,The Paradox of Schwartz,"If Mr. Schwartz really believed what he writes, he wouldn't write. There are, by his depiction of things, too many choices. For example, there are far too many books. By writing another book, he aggravates the problem while pretending to solve it. In reality, we filter out most choices and focus on just a few. There are 6+ billion people, so we could marry any one of say, 3 billion. We select from a far smaller number and are not distressed about the billions we never met."
+16302,2,Exactly what it claims to be.,"I don't understand all the down voting from fans just because it's not the ""super duper uber version with so many extras you'll crap your pants!"" GROW UP! Wait on the version you want, whining and down voting a great Bluray set achieves nothing. Anyway, this collection is ALL of the films on Bluray with a few extra features that have been available for a while. So if you're like me and never got around to buying the films on DVD and could care less about all the bells and whistles, this is a GREAT collection and well worth the money.Edit:Well this WAS well worth the money when it was $69.99 now that it's $112.39 it's not."
+16303,1,So what? Tell your readers the HOW,"Does it really matter why business speakers give poor presentations? Get to the action quickly and the why is irrelevant. Persuasion is most effective when the speaker focuses on the new way of doing things and avoids any comparison to the old way. Readers searching for better presentation skills will remember new and better presentation techniques by learning them, not by having the bad old ways rehashed again and again.Please read books with actual action steps, not theory, and you'll be a business speaker who doesn't speak like an idiot."
+16304,1,No Good in Rain or Wind,"Although the tent was large and looked good, I would never recommend this tent to anyone who expects any rain or wind while camping. Rain leaked through the top on to our stuff (including our bedding). And if we hadn't been in the tent to hold it up during a windy spell, it would have come completely down. Also, the instructions appear to have been written by someone who has NO command of the English language. They were incomplete and hard to understand. It was made in China, so I guess they let the Chinese write the instructions too, which was a very bad idea. When our 5 days of camping were over, the tent was promptly deposited into the dumpster. We will never buy this brand again."
+16305,1,Extremely dissappointed,"I am extremely dissappointed in both this product and the lack of customer service of the manufacturer. When I pulled the laminator of the package, I discovered that the metal parts inside of it are completely rusted. I called the maker of the product, Esselte/Leitz, because the product supposedly came with a 1-year warranty, as stated in the documentation that came with the product. They informed me that they no longer make this product and will not honor the warranty. They told me they couldn't help me and that I should take up my dissatisfaction with Amazon.com. They also informed me that they no longer make the refill pouches to go with it. I noticed this problem popped up in another review, so I find it hard to believe it's an isolated incident."
+16306,2,my Kid loves this,These are great for a 4 year old who is Thomas crazy. It's nice that he can watch then over and over and over and over with the Prime Membership
+16307,1,Too small for an adult,"The description says this bike is ""for riders under 5'10""/190 Lbs"". I'm 5'5""/165 Lbs and it is too small (and too slow) for me. Also, don't fall for the ""three speeds"": it's slow and the first two speeds are of no practical use."
+16308,1,A Misleading Threat to Depressed Patients Everywhere,"Dr. Breggin never prescribes psychotropics. He therefore has no experience with any. Untreated depression has a hard outcome, suicide at the peak age of responsibility and productivity. He is less a Ralph Nader type, than a hate speech advocate against modern psychiatry. He is similar to advocates of the horse when cars were first being made. He should be advocating accuracy,pragmatism and focus on what works. Some depressed patients benefit from anti-depressants and even electro-convulsive therapy. Some do not, benefitting from other therapies. Matching is the key, not extremist, obstructionist, heinous dogma. The arrogance that he knows what is best for the patients better than they do is unbearable."
+16309,1,Save your money!,"I am a beginning piano student, so I figured I could use a simple keyboard for practice. I paid the extra money for expedited shipping, as I needed it quickly for my class.Upon turning on the device, I was worried. There was a constant feedback noise that occurred. At first I thought it was just faulty speakers. However, when I put in headphones, the feedback continued. Playing any song with chords also sounds HORRIBLE, as the notes are all slightly out of tune. How an electric keyboard can be so badly out of tune is beyond me. I'm sending this product back, even though it will be a big hassle. I'm going to have to break down and buy a casio or yamaha...at least they're dependable. Do yourself a favor and invest a little more money for a better board. You'll be saving money in the end (shipping, return fees, price of product, etc.)."
+16310,1,Deja vu?,"Have we not been here before? Monks/priests on an isolated coastline, the usual suspects arrayed before us, a death in an isolated cottage. I'm devastated to say that I think this is the only book I've ever read when I actually couldn't have cared less what on earth was going on- in fact by the time I reached the end I'd actually forgotten how the story started. I have to say that the recent Reginald Hill books beat the last few P.D.James offerings hands down for 'literary' content."
+16311,2,Magazine,Ordered on February 14 and the gift recipient had it by March 11. Pretty fast for a new magazine subscription.
+16312,1,Blender leaks,"Leaks__!, October 19, 2008By Valerie A. Jones ""She who reads a lot"" (Virginia Beach, VA USA) - See all my reviewsThis is very frustrating--I wish I'd read more of the reviews here to learn that this blender leaks.We've used it almost every day for a month. Even when we think it's assembled as tight as can be, it still leaks. When re-assembling it, I've taken to blending soapy water first--if THAT leaks, it's not such a mess. If it's ""safe,"" then I blend the smoothies. Smoothies are a lot messier to clean up.What a hassle. Not worth $200 at this point--if it didn't leak it might be, as the blending power is better than average."
+16313,2,Great Gadget,"I owuld recommend this to anyone who wants to eliminate the 3, 4, or 5 current remotes. It is easy to setup and to use; I wish it was touch-screen but you can't beat the price of $100"
+16314,2,Oldies,"We are from the baby-boom generation, growing up with the music of the late 50's, 60's and 70's. No better music made!"
+16315,1,What Were They Thinking?,"They were thinking they had a megawatt moneymaker on their hands, and they did. Original be damned!!And it was, dragged down, ripped apart and ruined. The film is a pale copy of what was on the stage. The story was ridiculously altered (Russian ballet on speed on Ed Sullivan???), even the promotional material is off base. Ann Margret in stilleto heels, legs in the air in her tight red dress..an all American teenager??Dick Van Dyke delivers, as does Paul Lynnde re-creating their roles..but even they seem to be straining to deal with the incredulous second half of the film.Goes into the WWTT file!The Jason Alexander/Vanessa Williams television version is much closer to the original idea and contains the entire score. Skip the film version, I found it painful to watch as an adult."
+16316,1,Positive Reviewers are so Naive,"Just because one never experiences racism or does not practice it or because a few CEO's are ""minorities"" does not mean we can say ""problem solved"". Why do we still claim racism and race are a factor in the US? because if it wasnt, all minority groups would be equal or at least encroaching upon the same level of economic reality most whites experience; the question is will we be allowed to share it???? So in response to ""negative reviewers are so hilarious"" think about this...nothing will be solved until ""minorities"" are at the same socio-economic level as whites, in other words we want the majority of people of color to share the same economic status and cultural priveleges as light skinned people do within every aspect of US culture...can you handle that?"
+16317,1,"Get A Grip, Indeed","I bought this the day it came out, listened to it all the way through three times, and tossed it out the window of my apartment in Boston. The only songs I can stomach are ""Livin' On The Edge"" and one other one towards the end that I can't remember the name of...something about dancing.Anyway, for all of the bashing that I hear about Rock..Hard Place and Done w/ Mirrors, this album is absolute crap.Why they became so huge again in the late 80's is a complete mystery to me. Glossy production, horrible lyrics, unimaginative grooves and those horrible, HORRIBLE power ballads are NOT what made Aerosmith a classis band - Go buy Toys In The Attic or Rocks NOW...and toss this garbage in the trash where it belongs."
+16318,2,Awesome Book,If you want to learn how behavioral intervention is really practiced to really help children with disabilities; this is the book for you. The behavior technology described and examples of interventions given can be applied with modifications to anyone or anything that is capable of learning.
+16319,2,Adobe Elements buy it,"Excellent product with ease of use. If you expose and focus right, you can't go wrong."
+16320,2,Lovett or leave it!,"Watching Lyle and his Large Band live in concert is an unforgettable experience! This DVD captures the best of the ""best of"" Lyle Lovett. The performance is flawless, and this DVD brings the concert directly to you. This is a must buy for any Lyle Lovett fan!"
+16321,2,Where it all began,"The reason I have so much resect for this band is that even though they get slumped in with nu-metal they did this in 1994 not 2001.This is their rawest,most emotional punkiest album. Sur, ther's some ""nu"" bands that came before them (faith no more, helmet, marilyn manson, alice in chains) but these guys were still original and fresh sounding. This album showed room for improvement. They didn't really reach their full potential until Untouchables but this is still a good album. Standout tracks are: Blind, Clown, Divine, Faget, Shoots&Ladders, Predictable,and the haunting Daddy.Rock on Korn."
+16322,1,roulette is crap,I read this book and the author doesn't take the time to verify his stats. On the system of roulette the quarters method he states you need a bankroll of 5200 min this is a lie you need at least 6200 min. He states that on the 11 12 13 spin if you win you recoup your money plus about a grand. Not so. Also on the 14th and 15th spin your risking 1250 and 1500 to supposedly win your money back --not so still at a loss. Also on the sections on thirds strategy he includes 26 in the 1st third but it should be 29. What a piss poor way of giving a strategy and of course I had to lose some money before I realized because you would think at least the math would be correct.
+16323,2,A Common Classic!!!,"I bought this album right after I bought Be. Be is, hands down, a solid album that anyone can listen to from start to finish. It just has Kanye's greasy hands all over it, which is too much for me. I must say, this album is a refreshing change from the hip hop you hear everyday. ""The Light"" is a solid song. If you are a hip hop fan and find yourself getting winded and tired of the crap that is being put out right now, cop this album. It's more than worth the 8 or 9 dollars you will spend."
+16324,1,Yes - 'Drama' (Elektra/WEA),"Originally released in 1980,as many long time Yes fans may consider this effort to be an insult to their intelligence.However,'Drama' really isn't all that bad.It's so-so.I mean when you replace keyboardist Rick Wakeman with Geoffrey Downs and frontman/vocalist Jon Anderson with Trevor Horn,you're bound to draw some negative responses there.Overall,I would consider 'Drama' to be second class art-rock.In addition to the lp's original six cuts,this reissue tags on ten(is this right?)bonus tracks,of mostly cutting room floor material.Tunes here that I thought 'sort of' makes this CD somewhat of a keeper were the ten-minute ""Machine Messiah"",""Does It Really Happen?"" and the uptempo ""Tempus Fugit"".Pretty much aimed for Yes fanatics only."
+16325,1,Wrong adapter for time tracker,This adapter DOES NOT work with the time tracker. I removed the batteries before trying the adapter and the unit seemed to be getting some power but none of the functions worked correctly.
+16326,2,Everyone should read this book!,"Whether you have children or not you should read this book. Everyone should know and be thinking about ways to help our children, nieces, nephews and friends to fight back in a world where anything goes and goodness doesn't prevail. Anything you want, you can get, no matter the price. Materialism is valued and moms and dads are taken away from what really matters, to pay for all this stuff.This book is chalk full of resources for everything you could imagine. I myself am going to check out magazines for young ladies. Great book, well written and one to be pulled out to be re-read!"
+16327,1,Monday Morning Quarterbacking,"The author's thesis is that the Germans could have won the war against the USSR if they had attacked for Moscow. This is what the German generals wanted to do, but Hitler thought he knew more than the professionals. Obviously a better strategy gives a better chance of success, but the main problems, the sheer size of the USSR, the number of men available to the Red Army as reinforcements, the Russian winter and massive Soviet industrial plant safe in the Urals would have remained.I would render the Scot's verdict: unproved."
+16328,2,"Excellent for my purposes: periodic, light use by an amateur","I was worried about buying an inexpensive multimeter, but this product has worked out great so far. I've had it about a year and used it two or three dozen times. My wife also used it to test batteries. It's more sensitive and accurate than I had expected. The removable rubber casing is durable, and the integrated stand has been helpful. It's fairly easy to use, and I was surprised by how helpful the manual is. The only complication to working with it is that the red lead needs to be inserted into different terminals to measure certain things. Sometimes I sit there trying to figure out why the reading is 0, and it's because the lead is connected to the wrong terminal. Honestly, as an amateur, I should be paying closer attention when dealing with electricity."
+16329,1,Useless,Complete junk - they're not at all puncture resistant and the seems fell apart in about a week of moderate use.
+16330,1,You can have mine!!!,"We'v had this Hoover for about 2 years and Im ready to junk it. After the first 3 or 4 cleanings, I thought the unit worked rather well, but then the problems started. First the scrubber wheels stoped spining. The brush drive uses plain steel gear pins that rusted due to the fact they are directly exposed to the fluids entering the machine! After cleaning and relubing these parts, it was working again. Then the leaking started. I replaced the rubber O-ring seals and it still leaked. I called Hoover and they mailed me a new water bucket and bucket base that had been slightly redesigned, It only driped slightly at first and now with about 4 uses, it litteraly has water running out of it!!!! This is without a dout, the worst possible design for fluid transmission in and out of a machine. Other than that, it cleans great!"
+16331,2,it only took me a minute,"Folks get this stylus I have the pogo, the stylus that is also a pen and one other one that I bought from amazon this is hands down by far the best stylus. It took literally no effort to write a sentence or two on my pen app I can't think of the name right now.[...] bucks is pretty expensive but I guarantee to you that it is worth it. I'm gonna put this next piece in all capitals just so you know how serious this is.GET THIS BOX WAVE STYLUS NO OTHER ONE COMES CLOSE!!!!! GET IT !!!!!!!!! DONT THINK JUST BUY!!!"
+16332,1,"MORE ""AUSTIN POWERS"" THAN DR. SEUSS!!","Not for kids!! it has been stated before - in other reviews, but let me reiterate it here NOT FOR YOUNG KIDS!!! This movie is anti-kid friendly and Michael Myers is more like Austin-Powers in his level of vulgarity and vileness than the Dr. Seuss chraacter his is SUPPOSED To be portraying!! I mistakenly bought this thinking it was Jim Carey, after just watching his version of the Grinch (an excellent movie by the way) The movie is not entirely bad - but as far as I can remember, it does not follow the book - and is aimed at a mature audience as many of the jokes kids will not get. I hate to give any movie a thumbs down, but this movie surely deserves one."
+16333,1,Best Iced Coffee Maker Out There!,"Sure, this product is was on the eyes, but God help you if you want a hot cup of coffee! The first cup will be nice and hot, the second cup will be luke warm...the third cup may as well be iced coffee. I mean come on. I kept looking in the directions to see if there was a way to keep the lousy pot hot. All it is says is, for best results fill pot with hot water first. That's all I need, an extra step and a waste of water. And to top it all off, the pot isn't even dishwasher safe. I've got to find a nice old fashioned glass carafe coffee maker, and soon. The kind that keeps the coffee warm from 1st cup to last. This thing stinks"
+16334,1,Trattoria,"Tired of seeing their flighty sister's heart broken due to her shallow choices, Cy and Lucy decide to help her by buying her a date with Dan, an aspiring actor who earns a living waiting tables. Since, the sister, Val, is pretty, this is not an extreme hardship, however, his attraction to Lucy does hinder his enjoyment of the situation somewhat. Though this dating scenario gives Val some much needed self-confidence, the expense begins to raise Cy's blood pressure, perhaps in part due to the financial woes of their family resteraunt. Love and money combine in this recipe for entertainment as each sibling pursues happiness. However, two things detract from the mix. A bit less salt in the language would have vastly improved things, as would using a different point of view. The second person perspective is rather disjointed to read and may turn many readers away."
+16335,2,It is excellent for its price as well as the delivering service.,"Compared with my old one which needs to keep in some position for working, It's good for its quality. Considering its price as well as the free delivering, it is excellent."
+16336,2,Interesting,"I found this to a very interesting book. I especially enjoyed the way the author presented the information, not as completed fact, rather as the latest working hypothesis that is standing up to the tests of science. He offered alternative points of view and stated things clearly enough that layman, such as myself, could understand them. The controversial aspects of the book are actually fairly treated in contrast with what people have said about it. It does drag a bit in parts as some theories are explored in more detail than my interest could sustain. All in all, fascinating and informative."
+16337,1,Culinary Crafting a Look at Presentation,If your looking for some vintage garnishing and presentation techniques this book will truly teach you the abc's. This is a great place for any cook to get started and learn about food presentation. the book is well written and edited and could be understood by someone who is reading at a highschool grade level. I think this book would be appropriate for young people that are just begining to learn about culinary arts.
+16338,2,The King's General,"I wasn't sure what to expect when I started this but I was more than pleasantly surprised. Du Maurier brings the past vividly to life and spins a rather downbeat tale of those caught in terrible times. This is not a depressing read however, instead a more honest, believable one. Du Maurier also has a fine heroine in Hope, a woman who more than most has to use her brains to survive. Recommended."
+16339,1,Free associations from a childish mind,"Cynical and sad, the first adjective matches with comedies, but not the second one, this Zucker movie is not a movie in itself, but a couple of free associations whose IQ required to see it is less than a chimpanzee watching The planet of the ape. Some boring patrons and a excentric tycoon who run a casino choose by random a group of individuals who engage in a race to get 2 millions dollars. The individual zeal and greedy are overcome when they finally got the money and found a best and humanistic choice: donate dollars to a NGO, Feed the Earth. Along the lines of Farrely brothers but without their intelligence and class sensibility, Rat Race is neither a comedy nor a movie. Not only the characters are ""kidnaped"" by the director's free associations, but one is also trapped by it. The great difference is -if you are not a critic- that after being 15 minutes in the multiplex you can leave theater."
+16340,1,5 stars?,NOtice that the people giving it 5 stars are the people who reviewed this product and this product alone.Sounds like employees trying to build up ratings.
+16341,2,Just as good as the John Corey novels.,Get involved with Paul Brenner. Read this and Upcountry back to back and you'll be blown away!Boo WalkerAuthor ofLowcountry Punch
+16342,2,Great book,I definitely can see how some people think the author was a bit self absorbed. But hello! The book was about her personal journey so yes it was all about her. Its a good book. A very smart read. And its also a quick read. Sit back and enjoy it on a quiet sunday.
+16343,1,Non-stick coating peeled after 2nd use!,"Received my pan and was really excited to use it! After the second use, the non-stick coating started to peel! I am meticulous about my kitchen ware, so nothing abrasive used (only silicone utensils) and both times it was hand-washed after use! This was supposed to replace my previous pan that I'd had for several years, but it's now virtually useless!"
+16344,1,Rocky is the man,"I had the pleasant opportunity to know more about how and why this book was written. I will say this Rocky Oliver is a Lotus Notes god. I've worked with him for a number of years. I know what the man is capable of. I am sure that if Rocky had more direction in the content of this book, I'd give it 5 stars (Rocky when is your book coming out?) However, back to the subject. Notes Help is much better."
+16345,2,So far so good...,"I got this program almost 2 months ago. It works really well on XP and has some good features. I'd previously had a 10 year old version of Works so this is a really big change. The full version of Word is included on this software and it's really helpful for a college student who has to write essays for English and other classes at least a couple of times a month. I'll admit, I probably won't use most of the stuff in this package, but it's nice to know it's there in case I do."
+16346,1,An Okay First Attempt,"I was really intrigued when I read the first review of this book. It sounded mysterious and juicy and interesting. And then I read it. I got half way through it and didn't want to pick it back up. The main character was annoying. I couldn't like her. I couldn't get involved with her plight. In fact, I wanted to read more about the other minor characters. They were much more interesting. Unfortunately, I had to finish reading this book for my book club. Otherwise, I probably would have just put it down and never finished it. By the way, none of the members of the club really liked this book either."
+16347,2,dr seuss,dr seuss has always put out good movies. the place i bought this was very good. they had the product out in good time and was represented well
+16348,2,Great Book,This is a great book. I have just started reading it and am really enjoying it. Would definitely recommend to anyone.
+16349,2,Your baby will love this!,"I received one of these blankets as a gift from my mother. It is SOOO soft, and we took it to the hospital with us when we were delivering. The nurses at the hospital nursery even fell in love with it, and asked where they could buy some! My son stays so warm and loves the feel of it so much we had to go out and buy more of them, as he prefers them over his other blankets. Definitely a great investment!"
+16350,1,Don't Buy,"Well after buying these O2 sensors I thought I got a great price compared to local stores! Well if they worked that would of saved me a lot. BUT, they are defective and of course its too late to return. Had to bring the car to a shop to figure it out. So I want to warn anyone who wants to use these Bosch Oxygen Sensors for their Chrysler Don't!! And according to a local Chrysler dealer Bosch O2s don't work in their cars. To late for me so heed my warning."
+16351,2,Yeah for Little Bear!,"Once again Little Bear and his adorable, loveable friends have proven that good wholesome cartoons are out there! My 3 yr old adores these movies. My older children watched when on Nickelodeon...so happy I found them for my newest addition. Would recommend to anyone who is unsure of what their children should be watching."
+16352,1,Will NOT work with WinXp Media Ed. sp3,This was probably a fine product when it was produced for Win 95 but it will NOT work with Windows XP SP3 Media Edition.
+16353,1,The Snooze Nightmare,One of the Most Boring Movies i have ever seen. stuck in a time period.I was feeling that the film lacked any passion or depth.this film put me to sleep&I thought the Folks were Stanky.I mean nobody ever got cleaned in this film. the pacing of this film was hit&Miss. no steam whatsoever to me.Stanky Acting&Stanky Feeling after watching this Debris of a Film.
+16354,2,A beautifully written and gripping story,"This book will not disappoint. It is a true story of a young girl and her family and their amazing story of struggle, survival and triumph through several years of containment in the Polish ghetto. It offers a very close and personal perspective as seen and spoken through the eyes of Syvia the young protagonist as well as historical perspectives that are interspersed throughout the book by the author. Adults will enjoy this book as well as the 9 and up target audience."
+16355,1,Hard to follow with all the typographical errors,"It's hard to say if this is a good book or not, I spent so much time trying to figure out the exercises with all the errors that I couldnt even finish the book. Many of their Figures do not match the explanations and sometimes it was so confusing that I could not complete the exercise. I would definitely not recommned this book to anyone new to flash; what a waste of money!"
+16356,1,Beware. This is not the TV show,I should have read the reviews more carefully. I thought I was getting the book that the PBS series of the same name was taken from but this was not the case. This book has no plot. It is simply a rather long detailed description of life in a part of England during the time the PBS series is set in. Some of the people mentioned in the book are the same as in the TV show but that is all. If you have seen and enjoyed the BBC PBS series as I have you would be disappointed in this book as I was.
+16357,1,moby = genius ¿? why ¿?,"People are saying that moby is like a god, that he is one of the world best producer, people say that his this record, Play, is the album of the year, ¿?. I have heard this is the best techno album ever. I cannot understand this things. Please forgive me, but in my view, Play is simply a bad album. The only thing moby has made, is sample some old soul vinyls, and put music behind. And believe me, that the only good things of this album are these voices, which are the only things moby has not made. The drums are simply bad produced, the music is simply, and his voice is, oh my god!, why anybody has say to moby that he cannot sign?. You could say me you like some of the album songs, but please, DON'T SAY ME THAT MOBY IS A GOOD PRODUCER AND DON'T SAY THAT PLAY IS ONE OF THE BEST 90's ALBUM!!!"
+16358,1,use caution,"Ive been using GABA calm for about a year and just switched to this powder because it contained more of the GABA. My 10 y.o. son has asd and we were treating his anxiety and nervous energy with these supplements. Unfortunately, he has now had the worst school year ever with unpredictable behaviors, agression and the like. Staff was asking us if we tried putting him on meds. As an evperiment, we took him off all forms of GABA and what do you know- He has now had the best two weeks of his life. Im not saying this product will not work, just that if you are using it on children be aware it may have the opposite effect."
+16359,1,Drier than dry,I tried to read it and couldn't. I skipped chapters and kept trying but the author talks like she is the utmost expert and I feel like she is putting the reader down. There is way too much technical information and not enough real life information.
+16360,2,Can't stop this feeling I got,"Do yourself a massive favour. Buy this CD, put it in your CD player and don't remove it until you are singing along.I own a few Prince CDs, (Hits B Sides, Purple Rain, 1999, SignO'Times, Batman) Graffiti Bridge is the best one.This CD just grooves - it has a funky sound, quirky, sexy lyrics and with the huge depth of talent Mavis Staples and the ,I haven't seen the movie and I don't plan to - I think it may ruin the music.The best song on the album is 'Joy in Repetition', but I could put this on repeat and listen non-stop for several days."
+16361,1,Bills fan,"The picture showed a dark blue valence, but I received a light blue valance. Did not match. Please specify the correct colors please."
+16362,1,Very weird game.,"This game was pretty good, but it's weird. I mean the character use, Willie Wampa Cheeks? Von Clutch? Pasadena O' Possum? psst. And this is 50% an aventure and 50% a racing game, & 100% retarded. This game is too easy as well. This game is good but odd."
+16363,2,great for what i do,This toy is great for customization as well as overall playing... I'm actually going to get another one just so I can customize an Ice cream van out of it... I recommend getting this if you customize toys... or as a gift for your kids
+16364,2,You just can't knock it.,"This title is this first chapter in the evolving world of Dragon Ball Z, and although it shows, it's still a great show. There are countless niggles with dubbing and corny plots, but that is the essence of the series, and there is no better way to enter into the genre than to see the start point."
+16365,1,Didn't like it at all,"Shakespeare is certainly considered to be one of the greatest authors of all times, but I don't really know why. Maybe I haven't understood the whole meaning of the play; to me it seemed quite boring and too predictable. It's a story about power and abusing power, about traitors and morality, decorated with many complicated sentences and words."
+16366,1,Vacuous,"This book is chapter after chapter of ...""we sailed here...we sailed there..."" with too much pay-off to friends being mentioned, and too little insight, reflection, facts, knowledge, or wisdom. Many, many better cruising books out there. Skip this one."
+16367,1,dont waste your money,"this book was gross! it was extremely stupid1 i shouldn't have ever wasted my money on it!!!!! the book really isn't approreate for 7th graders, all 5 of the books are not good."
+16368,1,Be Wary of this Book,"Be warned, this book is very dark and disturbing and I'm not sure it would really do anybody any good to read. It does have its interesting points. But it is an independently published book which means sparce editing and radical content. Before you by this or any other idependently published book, you should make sure you know what you're getting into...."
+16369,2,Unique Sound,"This CD of traditional songs has a very different sound than anything I've heard previously. There is minimal instrumentation; oud & tablas mainly with a bit of violin and some kind of wind instrument. Marchand and Marcel Guillou handle the vocals. Thierry Robin plays oud only. The songs are duets. It's sound is very hard to describe. Its a kind of staccato, in a way almost serialistic. It doesn't feel like anything French or Celtic or Gypsy that I've ever heard. It almost sounds like a couple of French guys trying to make Pygmy music or trying to make up their own Islamic prayers. I wouldn't call it accessible. It's very good but it's also very challenging."
+16370,2,Functional and Durable,"Hamilton Beach CPM700 Commercial Stand Mixer, SilverI bought this mixer when I had a baking business making about 50 cakes plus many pounds of cookies a week. It is the 4th mixer I bought after I burned through 3 others. Most people don't need to have as large a bowl but if you do, I would recommend this one over the Kitchen Aid and definitely over the Viking I had. Most importantly it has an automatic shut off when the motor gets overheated, which the others do not. It doesn't offer a splatter shield, but it is the exact shape as the Viking so you can order one from that company and it will work fine. The warrantee is not as good as the Kitchen Aid which automatically sends you another within days, but it also is more durable if you are doing some heavy duty baking."
+16371,1,"SI INSISTEN EN LEER A MR. SANCHEZ, LEAN ESTE.","Yo no lo comprarÃa, pero si ha usted le han hablado tanto de este Sr., de su ""grito desesperado"" y su otro ""libros"" (asÃ, entre comillas). Bueno, pues sólo invierta en éste (y en el volúmen dos si se aferra). Es una ""recopilación"" de ""sus"" ideas de ""sus libros""."
+16372,2,Good stainless flask,"I was really looking for a way to carry water as I have severe dry mouth. It is a lot heavier than I expected, but appears very well constructed."
+16373,2,"Easy to use, great results","My wife and I used this product on our red sports car. It went on easily, came off easily, and the results looked great. My wife had never waxed a car before, but she had no problems removing it. Recommended!"
+16374,1,I should have listened,"I should have believed the other reviewers. Being a die hard fan of both actresses, I thought, ""how could this be bad"". This was 50 minutes of absolutely NOTHING. It was cheaply put together. I learned nothing from it. What a waste of money! If I could have given it zero stars I would have."
+16375,2,Peter Gabriel Rocks,"This is a great compilation of Gabriel's music history. While favoring the recently produced works, there are still the old gems you love form him, like Solisbury Hill. This is a double CD, so there is a lot of music for you to enjoy."
+16376,2,A winner!,"Fried Green Tomatoes being one of my all-time favorite books - and Daisy Mae right up there too - I approached this book with caution - having been told ""it's not like her other ones"". Well, it isn't like her other ones but it's still a good read! I really enjoyed exploring the puzzle of Dena's life and all the characters were just great. Don't hesitate to read this one!"
+16377,2,Nice Bowtie for Its Price!,Received the item quickly. The quality of the bowtie is good for its price. Will buy again from this vendor.
+16378,1,Did not match advertisement,"We were very disappointed by this order. The description stated ""case"" and what we received were only individual packages of the bones. This made the price we paid Amazon higher than the packages are sold for at retail stores. Very misleading."
+16379,2,GREAT VIDEO!,"This one is great. Hoban covers Junan Taiso, Sanshin no Kata, and Kihon Happo. A great start on the Ten Chi Jin Ryaku no Maki. Although, you can get the whole series at ninjadynasty.com for less. 24.95"
+16380,2,Great presentation.,A great DVD for impressionist lovers. Manet is shown as the wonderful artist he was.
+16381,2,Follow me Boys,I love this movie!It is a favorite of mine.I saw it when it came out on the screen.It has not lost any charm as time has gone by.fred Mac Murray is wonderful as Lem and Vera Miles is sweet as Vida.All of the trouble the kids get into is funny and touching.A way to look back at our past with a smile.
+16382,1,Disappointing,"If I had paid 2 dollars for this, I wouldn't bother to complain.As reviewed by others, it is indeed correct that it's poorly designed : too flimsy for Dr Brown's own 8oz glass bottles!! The bottles on the picture must be a light plastic model (if it's not a computer-generated rendition), be warned: you won't be able to do that with glass bottles.And the bottom section of the rack? impossible to reach anything underneath.A cheaper substitute: your regular dish rack."
+16383,1,Poor quality,"This dresser looks nice, but it is of poor quality. The drawers do not hold much weight and the piece holding the drawers keeps coming off. I quess you get what you pay for."
+16384,1,Disappointed Overall,"While Draja Mickaharic is a highly touted author in the metaphysical arena, this text left much to be desired. This book was very general, touching seemingly upon descriptions of only the most mild cases of psychic attack, without depth on any page. It appears to be a text for someone who is just beginning to study psychic attack, its effects and possible remedies because the book gives little more than a very broad overview. As someone who is currently battling a psychic attack and am reading everything that I can possibly lay my hands on in regard to the subject, there was absolutely NOTHING that Mickaharic's text brought to me that was even remotely substantive or useful to my situation. If I could secure a refund for this book, I definitely would."
+16385,1,Sub-Standard Sanding Discs,"It seems as though these discs don't last as long as the editorial sais. You'll need to buy twice as many to get the job done. I might of got a batch from a bad lot, but I think I will stick with Norton from this point on. I am very disappointed in these discs."
+16386,2,Another approach to revitalize the Jazz idiom,"Isotope 217, another outfit coming from the incredibly fertile grounds of Chicago, offers in this release a near-perfect formula to translate the vast Jazz heritage to contemporary styles. The mix of intimate, confessional jazz passages with electronic collages met a rare balance in this recording, thanks to an extremelly competent production. Rob Mazurek's work on cornet only enhances the final product, and the transitions between old an new are seamless. This proves that bringing jazz to new audiences can be done without the poor pastiche concocted by the mundane acid-jazz crowd. Give it a try, you'll be surprised."
+16387,2,"Excellent resource, I recommend it","I took the PMP exam on 7/29/05 and passed easily. While the PMBOK is a good reference source and includes a lot of information that you can use, if your goal is to pass the exam with the minimum amount of study effort Crowe is an excellent resource.In hindsight I probably studied TOO much. I agree with another review here on Amazon that the exam isn't as difficult as many people think it is. I honestly believe that you can pass the exam using Crowe as your sole source, and never even open the PMBOK or any other study aid. I found the Crowe practice exam to be very much in line the actual exam. Mulcahy's book is very good also, but I found Crowe to be very well organized and easy to understand. So I would make it my top choice.Keep in mind that the goal is to PASS, not necessarily score 95%. Unless your goal IS to score 95%....."
+16388,2,Really helps my mom,Got this for my mom who has arthritic hands and they help her while she writes and does other things with her hands.
+16389,1,DISAPPOINTED!!,"I AM DISAPPOINTED BECAUSE THIS CAMERA HAS A PROBLEM AND I SHOULD NEVER HAVE TRUSTED A ""REFURBISHED"" CAMERA. IT WAS PAST THE RETURN POLICY ALLOWED BY THE SELLER BEFORE I REALIZED IT."
+16390,2,The Best!!!,This stuff is the best spray to use when you first get a piercing. I got my belly button pierced at a not too reputable place but I bought this and used it religiously and it never got infected. I've had it for a year already and its perfect. I had lots of friends that got their's done and it got infected but mine never did. So buy this if you plan on getting a piercing done. It's the best.
+16391,1,ok at best,"George Michael is a very Talented singer,songwriter,arranger&Producer but on this album He is settling for run of the Mill Material.there a couple decent tracks here but alot of the Material seems&feel dated&lacking any substance to measure up to what he use to do."
+16392,2,A must have resource,"As an art teacher who has taught at all level from elementary to high school, this is a very valuable resource. I have been a subscriber for 7 years and still have every issue. Whenever I am looking for new ideas for my classes, I turn back to my past issues and always find a great project. One of the best for our field."
+16393,1,Very disappointed,"I STILL have NOT received this item and have not been contacted back! I was charged but never got my item, and will NOT be doing business with them again."
+16394,1,So HARD to talk on.,"I bought this phone as a Christmas gift for my daughter and I was so disappointed. She, nor I could even talk on it becuase of it's odd shape! You can't hear the other person talking because of it and they can't hear you! It just felt so awkward. Plus, it's like trying to put a puzzle piece together when your trying to hang it up. Do Not Purchase!"
+16395,2,Easy To Use,"I am SO happy with this flash drive. First off, so easy to use...just plug it and and save to the drive. No software to load, no advertising to sift through. It is also very fast. I don't mind that it has a cap as some reviews talk about the ones that retract can eventually break off."
+16396,1,Don't Buy Linksys,"I had three of these routers. After about a year all of them stopped working. Not even a physical network connection. Even when they worked it was always intermittent at best. I purchased a slightly different model of linksys router from a different place later on. It also stopped working after a few months. I have subsequently purchased the cheapest Belkin product I could find at a local store to replace these units. The new routers I bought are in the same locations, performing the same functions as the linksys routers. The new routers work. I have never had to reset my belkin router in the 9 months I have had it in my home. Bottom line: linksys makes junk. Don't buy it."
+16397,2,Hillarious.,"As always, Madeleine Wickham (Sophie Kinsella) has an amazing sense of humour and timing in her books. I enjoyed it from front to back."
+16398,1,Battery failed in two years!,"I bought this watch thinking it would last me ten years. Hoping I wouldn't have to worry about resetting it or learning to set a new watch.Well, today I put it on and the screen was blank. Just two years and two weeks after I bought it from Amazon. If you are looking for something that will last, I suggest a Timex, I wish I had bought another one instead of this Casio. I've had two Timex day and date watches last five years each at about the same price or less as the Casio."
+16399,1,"Awful, just awful","I got this DVD for my daughter for Christmas b/c she loves Taylor Swift. We set aside a whole night to watch it, ordering in pizza and all. Within 5 minutes, I was so embarrassed. There's no footage of Taylor singing (or even of Taylor) and the DVD is mostly interviews with 2 women who don't know Taylor and are randomly chosen. They ramble on and on about whether parents should encourage their kids to sing (??) and irrelevant, random topics like whether Taylor is ""like Princess Di"" (they all conclude no in rambling commentaries and then the editor adds a bunch of footage from Princess Di and Prince Charles' wedding. Bizarre!) The whole thing is grainy and a ""soundtrack"" is added of ""music"" that sounds like the background of a video game. The video wasn't just bad - it was bizarre."
+16400,1,Good but broke quickly,"I found this board excellent for ironing shirt sleeves. I have many French cuffed shirts and those have several pleats which can be fiddly to do. My shirts did up perfectly like they'd come from the best laundry in town. Had wished I'd bought one years ago. Unfortunatly, my joy was short lived as after only a few uses it snapped in half! It's a cheap fiberboard which is clearly not suitable. I'm going to try to reinforce it underneath with a small narrow bracket meant for shelving. Wish the manufactorer would have done a better quality job as it's a VERY useful item."
+16401,1,Defective Krups kettle,"We got this kettle as a gift on Christmas. Nice,light and excellent looking kettle but the on/off switch is bad design. The switch keeps turning off so you have to hold it down for about 2 minutes and then it works. I am going to throw it away and get another brand."
+16402,1,don't buy,"There is not water release at the bottom....so if you need to drain it, it is a pain in the ass. And shame on AMAZON for charging me 14 bucks to return it. No that wasn't the cost of shipping, that was my refund mins some kind of return fee. So don't buy it....it's not worth it."
+16403,2,Good Investment,My 6months old daughter loves this and I think it great that Santa bought it for her and it will last until she is 3+ years old. Thank you Santa!!
+16404,2,Love My Sherlock Holmes....,"I'VE WAITED A LONG TIME FOR THIS COMPLETE SET OF SHERLOCK HOLMES AND NOW IT'S ALL MINE!TO ME JEREMY BRETT IS BY FAR THE BEST HOLMES EVER!I ALWAYS WAITED FOR THURSDAY NIGHT AT MY HOUSE WHEN PBS WOULD HAVE AN HOUR'S WORTH OF SHERLOCK HOLMES ON AND I ENJOYED EVERY MINUTE OF IT BUT NOW I NO LONGER HAVE TO WAIT FOR THURSDAY NIGHT...OH,NO NOW I CAN WATCH WHENEVER I WANT AND I ENJOY IT ALL THE MORE!"
+16405,2,mmmmmm,Everything I've made from this cookbook has been amazing! I've taken quite a few things to social gatherings and nothing but compliments :)
+16406,2,Excellent training Monitor,"I have the Forerunner 305 and I love it. It monitors my heart rate, my pace, my route, my distance, elevation, and my lap and total time. When I download the information, I get a plot of up to 4 variables vs time or vs distance. The GPS location seems to be accurate to about 5-10 feet horixontally and 15-20 feet vertically. I am amazed. I run in Santa Fe, a high desert with no tall buildings. It took awhile to figure out all of the options and I still have not used them all. You can program 3 screens with 2-4 readouts on each. I display 4 values on each screen. One screen for instantaneous lap values of time, distance, pace and heart rate. One screen for last lap total time and distance and average values of pace and heart rate, and one screen for total workout values of the same parameters."

+16408,1,small calf size = smaller ankle opening,The ankle opening for a size small is much too small to get over my daughters foot. If you can't slide it over your foot then it is useless. I was trying to replace a full lenghth one that was a wrap with a velcro closure. This one is a sock type. I loved the old one.
+16409,2,Glory Field review,"""The Glory Field"" is about the Lewis family from when they came over from Africa and started a family on Curry Island, South Carolina. The book tells the story of one person from each generation. The book spans almost 250 years. The book is an example of how the lifestyle of African Americans has changed over the years. Throughout the entire story part of the lewis family owns or works on the same piece of land."
+16410,1,latch defective,"The closing latch would not work on this pan. It would get stuck on the hinge. Perhaps a defect of my particular piece, but we returned it without even getting to use it."
+16411,1,not that great,While the designs look great the book leave a lot to be desired. The techniques are not really simple and assume you have a basic knowledge of metal smithing and are able to solder.
+16412,2,Excellent-I couldn't put it down!,"I work with Dave and purchased his book in support. I never knew what to except and I was astonished. His writing skills are unbelievable. He made the scenes and characters come alive! I even laughed and cried with Rebecca the main character. I love horror/ghost stories, and this was right up there with Stephen King and Anne Rice!"
+16413,1,Quilts Among the Plain People,I was disappointed with this book - perhaps I had misread what it was about. Firstly it is in black and white on quite ordinary paper. I was expecting a tutorial book but found this leant more to the history of Quilting in the Amish community. Perhaps this might be acceptable to someone who had not heard of the Amish people and their association with quilts.
+16414,1,definately not PINK,"I have no clue what color I was sent, but it is not the pretty pink shown in the picure! A total waste of money."

+16417,1,Poor Quality,"This product is a very poor quality item. The cut out size is incorrect. But I could work around that aspect. The bigger problem is the supplier (Restockit) of the speaker, the worst customer service ever! Basiclly a zero day warrenty."
+16418,2,Star Wars Episode III Game Review for PS2,"This was a pretty good game. I've only had a few problems with it so far. I can understand the T rating. I've a little trouble on the lightsaber battles, especially with General Grevious. I've had to try about 8 times until I beat him. I haven't completed the game yet. On some battles it gets a little frusterating. Like when the bat you in the air or kick you or something. I still enjoy it, though. One thing I like is when you reach a checkpoint you can restart from there if you die. I would recommend this."
+16419,1,ok except for anti Western bias,"The author puts forth this scenario where the antichrist is a Muslim, and the whole world bends to the will of Allah and becomes Islamic. While I've believed all along that the antichrist will rise from an Arab land, I don't accept the author's conclusions. Stice calls Islam a ""false religion"" .. and that its adherents are brought up since childhood in this system of ""lies"" .. yet he uses Koranic and hadithic prophecies as part of the basis of ""truth"" in his End Times scenarios. Personally, I was offended at his anti-Western bias in blaming all the evil of radical Islam on the West and Israel. He disregards the genocide that Muslims have inflicted on millions of Christians and Jews for the last several hundred years in obedience to the Koran's commands. However, while reading the book, my own deep seated prejudice against Muslims was brought to light, and for that .. I'm glad I read this book. As a Christian .. I repented forthwith."
+16420,1,A Bad Deal,"Replacement Battery Cartridge for Back-ups Rs/xs 500-1000VA (RBC32)The replacement battery may have been fine, I don't know because I could not remove the old battery from the UPS case. As a result, I was stuck with a replacement battery I could not use (because I could not return it) and the defective battery made my UPS inoperable.If you need to replace the UPS battery, make certain you can remove the defective battery before you order a new one!"
+16421,1,I would have given it zero star.,"I have an Athlon 1.4GHz machine. The temperature monitoring software came with my motherboard indicates a cpu temp of 59 under ME consistently. The funny thing is this same software shows my cpu temp is always 46 under win2k and xp.This is not the only problem I had with my ME. There were also millions of crashes, software failures, reboots. I just finally gave it up for the sake of machine. I wonder why MS released this garbage at all."

+16423,1,Stargate Seasons 1-9,"Recording quality is good, but it comes in a cheap/cheesy box and all dvds are in a notebook style book of clear sleeves, with cheap labels. I expected better quality for the price."
+16424,2,Cosmic Ray Rocks,"I have both hiking books--Best of Phoenix and Best of Flagstaff/Sedona. In fact, I am on my second copy of both as I have lent my first Phoenix copy to a friend (it disappeared) and wore out the first copy of my the Flagstaff/Sedona book. The maps are easy to follow and the topographical maps are awesome. Whenever I go hiking, I have two little girls (ages 1 and 4) in tow, so it is necessary to know the terrain inside and out before ever leaving home... Cosmic Ray is so detailed and so accurate that I never worry about being misinformed. Buy a copy for yourself and buy one for a friend... That way yours won't go missing!"
+16425,1,"Great Concept, but never works properly!!!","I am on my 2nd leappad and the newest one has the microphone and writing pen. I really like the books and all, but the book always seem to break down!! My son (4 yrs) is gentle, but from the get go the book ATE BATTERIES and volume doesn't work well, on and off constantly, etc. He has lost interest because he cannot get it to work consistently. At this point, we have invested over $100 (books, pad, batteries) and have nothing to show for it.My friend forewarned me about this product as she finally just threw hers away due to the same problems and it was causing alot of frustration for her daughter. I should have listened!!I think the fisher price books might be a better buy!"
+16426,2,Good tool,"This book contains exercises that can be done as a lay person or professional, with groups or individuals - even on yourself. The exercises are designed in such a way that they can be customized to your need. I bought it to get a technique to use on my classmates and one guy got so relaxed, he actually dozed off! I think that shows the effectiveness of relaxation therapy! This is a good tool to get ideas and helpful exercises for personal or professional use."
+16427,1,Memory upgrade,We bought these to upgrade a couple of older Dell computers... waste of money. The computers would not address the memory and caused nothing but grief!
+16428,2,...,"last year, for PSX The Mummy was released. that sucked. well this one seems to be going in a different direction. you can play as Rick O'Connell or you can be the bald walking dead dude, Imhotep. As rick you must save your son Alex, you must un-brainwash your wife, Evelyn and then save the world, just like the movie. As the Mummy, you must use your powers to stop Rick and use agains Ardeth Bay and his Medjai and more. For both of the characters, you must defeat pygmy mummy's and the Scorpion King. Universal (the game's developer) claims that The Rock looks better in this game than it will in THQ's SmackDown! 3."
+16429,1,Too Repetitious,"I'm a Brian Eno fan and was drawn to this album for the glowing reviews but I found it to be very repetitious. It's almost as if you're paying for a single, not an album. Do yourself a favor and buy his Apollo CD instead, which is a far more interesting and moving piece."
+16430,1,Expect Aggravations with Microsoft Wireless Entertainment Keyboard 8000,"DO NOT buy this product if you want to spend any time at all actually WORKING, rather than troubleshooting why the keyboard and/or mouse doesn't work. I have already rebooted my machine (an HP Pavilion tx 2000) 6 times this morning, and it's not yet 10A; I've spent at least an hour a day for the last 2 weeks trying to resolve why I am having such frequent lock-ups, most of which require an unsafe shutdown. The most annoying is the regularly occurring ""stuck keys,"" where you're typing along, and all of a sudden, you type a letter and then it just keeps on typing, over and over, on every screen you go to, Word document, Excel spread, even password screens. there is no solution but to reboot. This product is very expensive and is SO NOT WORTH IT. stay with the wire, go back to the wire, or pick something else, but don't buy this nightmare of a product."
+16431,1,dvd,"although the dvd arrived before the delivery date, the product could have been in better conditon. it works and my son is satisfied, but it would be questionable on ordering anything else."
+16432,2,A Wonderfully Enjoyable Gem,"A good story, great acting, beautful sets, great costumes, special effects.. this movie has it all!It's a clever story. You sort of know how it will end, but it moves so quickly its always two steps ahead of your ideas on how it all ties up.This movie didn't shake up the box office. The Oscars will pass it by. The neglect is not deserved."
+16433,2,Collision review,"The flic was great overall. Cinematography was creative and well-done in my opinion. Excellent soundtrack. My only criticism is that at some points the soundtrack was a tad too loud, making it difficult to hear what the respective speaker was saying. The editors were very aware of, and included key points in the respective arguments, making each scene thought-provoking. Who wins the discussion? You will have to decide, but, in my opinion, it is very clear in the final scene."
+16434,2,"Simple, Effective Sharpener","I was concerned by many of the lukewarm and negative reviews, but took a chance based on the reasonable price. Glad I did. This sharpener puts good points on standard pencils with little effort. Simple enough for my kids to operate. I'm sure it's not the finest sharpener money can buy, but it is a good sharpener for a good price."
+16435,2,good,"works well. i use 88.7 fm. uhh seems to always have a constant low volume static in the background but not much you can do about that. other than that, pretty crisp fm transmitter, works good."
+16436,2,very good movie,Bought this for the wife as she read the trilogy. I ended up enjoying the movie myself and may have to read the books myself
+16437,1,Boring and disappointing,"A Christmas Journey is a very disappointing book with a very misleading title. This is my first experience with any of Anne Perry's books, and it was a big effort to even finish this book. After finishing the book, I can't believe that I wasted my time even reading it.The story is set ""around"" Christmas time and has nothing to do with a ""Christmas"" story at all. The characters are extremely shallow without any depth, the book jacket's hint of a murder and mystery do not materialize at all, and there were many questions left unanswered and I would constantly ask myself, ""what.....""? Story lines did not connect and the plot did not easily flow.The entire story was unrealistic, bordering on horrible fantasy, as well as lacking in substance and depth. Not a book that I would recommend to anyone."
+16438,2,Great book for a cheap price!,"If you enjoy poker or any type of gambling you will love this book. I am in my mid-20's so of course I have heard of great players such as Phil Ivey, Tom Dwan, Daniel, and Brunson but not Stu Ungar. This is a good story involving the rise and fall of a poker hall of famer.It has been years since I read a complete book and amazingly I finished this book within a week.Bottom-line, I strongly recommend this book."
+16439,1,What a waste of money,xbox 360 sucks for all you people that like the 360 because it is the best system out there yeah right I have played it at a friends house and it really sucks my friend owns Tony Hawk American Wasteland and I own it for the PS2 and the 360 version looks just like the PS2 version and I have played NBA 2k6 it looks the same as the PS2 version except for when you do a instant replay when you do an instant replay the players have sweat running down their faces WOW!!!! big thing PS2 doesn't have that because it is not as new as the XBox 360 If I were you I would wait for the PS3 because the PS3 will allow you to play all of your PS2 and PS1 games and it will upgrade them to PS3 Quality and the PS3 has a Blue Ray High Def system the 360 does not You can't even play all of your old XBox game on the 360Peace out

+16442,1,Puff Daddy is finished,"this album is absolute garbage and will go down in ""hip hop's wackest""don't buy itPuff Daddy is the new Mc Hammer... or worse: Vanilla Ice."
+16443,1,technical problems,"The music is 4 or 5 star; if you like Marty Robbins, you'll like the CD. This disc will not, however, play on a computer and cannot be ripped. I received one replacement from the seller and another from Bear Family, and all three had the same problem. Since this hasn't been an issue with my other 3,000 or 4,000 CDs that I've ripped, I assume the problem is not the CD drive in my computer (a fairly new HP CD/DVD burner). The CD does, however, play fine in my regular Sony audio CD player."
+16444,1,Documentary cheese,"We watched this after being spoiled by the beautifully filmed and narrated Planet Earth (BBC) and unfortunately this doesn't even come close :-(The narration is uninspired and full of anthropomorphic blunders, the editing leaves something to be desired with it's TV soap-style ""dramatic"" cuts here and there and the slow motion segments are all done in post production.Quite a let-down, really."
+16445,2,Easy to understand and use,"This book was a valuable tool in understanding the nuts and bolts of rubrics; how to write them, how to revise them,and the role they play in analyzing student work to inform instruction."
+16446,1,don't even bother.......,"i bought this cd after hearing the song ""right now"" and i was severly dissappointed with the rest of the cd. the musicianship is not good and the lyrics are lame. the reason for me writing this reveiw is to deter you from poisioning your ears with crappy power-pop. it's not even worth the penny you'd pay for it and the dollar-fifty shipping and handling."
+16447,2,LOOKS AMAZING AND WORKS WONDERFULLY WELL!!!!!,The stand has exactly the look and quality it claims and I expected. It really blends with both my iMac and my extra monitor. Height is just perfect and lets me store my backup disk or my keyboard beneath.IT WAS A GREAT BUY!!!
+16448,2,BIG River Band,"I don't care that the video quality isn't perfect, I'm not a snob, it was filmed in 1981! It's 1981 quality! The sound through my home theater speakers is excellent and the performances were spot on. The vocals and harmonies sound killer! This DVD rocks!"
+16449,2,read this,"This is an excellent book for many to enjoy. It is perfect in compliance with how women were treated, especially African Americans, in the early 1900s. It's breath taking dramatic points are relieved with a small comical anectdote at Harpo's Jazz Club. Walker is a genious at capturing the sympathy from the reader in Celie's tribulations and a revolutionary writer for her book being written completely in letters to Nettie or God. Overall the reader will feel complte inside when they read this book."
+16450,1,Syriana the 3rd review,Well I have been asked to review this 3 times now I think. So try this. It sucks. Syriana that is.Perhaps you will delete the reminders on my account now???
+16451,2,A Fighter and RPG in one!,"A great game for the occasional gamer, this game combines a very interesting fighting game with a full-feature RPG. Plus, you can play teh game as Cloud, Tifa, Vincent and Yuffie (all from FF7)! This is a very fun game!"
+16452,1,"No Challenge, Boring, Terrible workout!","Total waste of money. MIght be good for a very beginning exerciser. Other than that, it was terrible. So easy, that I didn't even breathe heavily even when adding power moves to her routine. Way too easy. I didn't even feel like I worked out. I just wasted 30 minutes and had to do another workout. Not recommended for intermediate or advanced exercisers."
+16453,1,not worth it,"this game is outdated. console limited, wobbly, and it had no detail. i played for 45min and put it back in the box. i enjoy over head scrolers like legend of zelda and final fantasy, but this game has no flair. of cource i took it back and baught fallout2&1 pack. i was much more satasfied then."
+16454,2,Best book in the series......wonderful!,"Ms. Quinn's writing has improved with each book, TO SIR PHILLIP, WITH LOVE has more emotions and depth than any of her other books. This book touches your heart, it isn't one of the light fluffy marshmallow reads most of her readers expect.Phillip's walk into the sunlight with Eloise is not to be missed. Ms. Quinn relieves some of the seriousness with Phillip's two mischievous twins and of course, a visit from Eloise's family will give readers a laugh."
+16455,1,Cheap but still not worth the money.,Have tried 2 packs of these bulbs in the same light - they are lucky to last more then a month each and I don't move or bumb the light. Not pleased with their life.
+16456,2,"Well made, plenty of power, a little noisy","I have not tried it with a draw near its max of 175W but at lower draws it is fine and always runs cool, thanks to the built in fan. That is also the only negative I have after a month with the unit -- fan noise. It is loud enough to be noticeable over normal road noise, although the car radio drowns it out at normal volume. I think I can put up with the fan because otherwise it seems a very good unit. Maybe they could hook the fan to a sensor and only have it run when the unit gets hot. The shape is good for my pickup's dash arrangement and being all-in-one it doesn't slide around or need securing. Overall, a good unit that has done the job."
+16457,2,By Far The Best Adventure Book I've Read,"Into Thin Air was a supurb book, the best action/adventure book as far as I am concerned, and one of the best books ever written. It was written excellently, with accurate Everest history and amazing details. It didn't take me long to read Air, it was hard to put down. Although the major action didn't take place until the last third of the book, the rest of it was great. If you are looking for a great action/adv book, this is it. It is not hard to read, even though it is long. I am a 10th grader and I read it in one week, it was so good. You should definetly buy Into Thin Air."
+16458,2,Absolutely stays put,"I placed this mount in a variety of places on my Prius dash to see if it would remain stable over curvy surfaces. Absolutely! Calling it a ""mount"" is a misnomer, because you don't mount it to anything -- which makes it the perfect portable from car to car. The ""arm"" which attaches to the Garmin is far superior to the one that comes with the GPS. This one is sturdy with a well-labeled slide-lock."
+16459,2,Not sure about Ebooks,"There wasn't anything wrong with this- I just have a hard time without a hard copy of a book for classes. The information and content of this book were excellent. Perfect for a first year student. However, for classes - my teacher would list page numbers for reading assignments, and I could not figure out how to tell which pages to read on my eBook. The page numbers were different due to formatting, so I would have to look at my friends book to see where I should start and stop my readings."
+16460,2,Teen loves it!,My teenage son loves this game. He was also excited that it came with a 'bonus'. Well worth the low price I got it for.
+16461,2,Another Childhood Favorite!!!,"It was Child's Play 2 that started my love for horror movies. It was on tv when I was about 6 years old, and I loved it! I still love it. It's been two years since Andy Barclay has been rid of Chucky, but the greedy people at Play Pals Toy Company resurrects the original Chucky doll, and brings Chucky back to life. Andy has been placed in the foster care of Phil and Joanne Simpson because his mom has gone crazy. Chucky finds Andy and the nightmare begins again. Andy made friends with the teenage girl that the Simpsons are also looking after. Her name is Kyle, and she is HOT! Soon, Kyle believes Andy about Chucky and she tries to help him. They eventually have an ulimate showdown at the Play Pals Toy Company. If you love horror and Chucky, you'll love CHILD'S PLAY 2!!!"
+16462,1,Doesn't cool quickly and doesn't sit steadily in the trunk,"I bought this cooler specifically to cool beverages while driving. Not only did it keep sliding around and falling over, it also proved impractical since it doesn't cool beverages quickly enough to make it worthwile for use while driving. A traditional cooler box with ice-packs has since replaced it."
+16463,2,There is none other,"The question of ""who's best?"" is a subjective one. My opinion after listening to all of the New Flamenco (New Age) guitarists is: They are all great and have their own distinctive styles, but Govi is king."
+16464,2,great value,This spinning combo is a good combination of form and function; i.e. it performs as well as it looks.
+16465,2,Love it-Love it-Love it!!,"I absolutely LOVE this sweeper. I even sweep for no reason. I have 2 BIG dogs. Lots of dog hair. It takes it right up and makes the rugs look great!I Don't find it too noisy. My belt did break after a week, but I expected that. NO big deal. I'll stock up on belts. I even ordered 36 bags on line, so expect to have it around for a while. If it breaks, I'll buy a new one. One hint- If the sweeper is hard to push, that probably means the belt broke. So change it right then, so you don't burn out the motor."
+16466,2,An important read,"Most of us (both men and women) who take the right to vote for granted have no way to comprehend the struggle it was for those who fought and won that right. I thoroughly enjoyed reading Susan B. Anthony's own words from the beginning of her work with her friend and fellow reformist Elizabeth Cady Stanton in the mid 1800s to her death in 1906. As a secondary school student, I remember her name being mentioned occasionally, but I had no appreciation of the dedication and determination of this remarkable woman who was truly a pioneer in the women's movement in America.A compelling, important read."
+16467,2,"Great album, Reissued","I recently purchased Cannibal Corpse's ""The Bleeding"" album in its reissued form, and I would recommend it to anyone that is missing the disc from their death metal collection. I believe Metal Blade Records did a great job with the packaging for this reissue, as it looks much better than the original cover art, in my opinion. Also when I bought it, it was 12 dollars, so it's not a bad deal."
+16468,2,This movie can be seen many times over.It will never tire yo,I was 15 years old when I saw this movie. Since then I have seen it many times over. Al Jolson was a singer's singer. His voice commands such respect that you become a fan for life.
+16469,2,"Oh, yeah...","I can't do this album justice...a great fusion of jazz and Malian roots players, resulting in a world jazz album that is just a joy to listen to...Ms. Bridgewater's voice is beautiful, soothing, seductive, acrobatic...sometimes all at the same time, but the real star of this album is her vision in putting together such a significant piece of work..."
+16470,1,Poor quality phone.,"Poorly made, inexpensive chordless phone. Not user friendly at all. Hard to read LCD and short battery life. Would not recommend buying the Panasonic Dect 6.0"
+16471,1,"Poor software - buggy, crashes often","They list this software as Vista compatible. Their vision of compatible is the software runs 10 minutes then crashes - if you can finish all your work in 10 minutes, you'll be fine.The drawing tools are weak, doing a simple 45 degree bend in a kitchen island is impossible. Doing something simple like putting a sink where you want it on a countertop is impossible - it always centers the sink in the space provided. If you're used to even the drawing tools in MS Powerpoint, this will be a big disappointment."
+16472,2,"Tender, sexy, unforgettable","The concluding book in Jill Barnett's excellent trilogy is a gorgeous story of young love, with all its attendant heartbreak and passion. Sophie's journey of the heart is one you'll never forget. Brava!"
+16473,1,another tired ass record shack collection,"i don't know if all this rubbish comes from record shack or not but each of these songs has been released on at least twelve cheapo compilation cds that i have seen on amazon pages....they seem to think that if they change the cover and the title of the album, enough innocents will buy this [...] they are probably right.don't buy this one..... [...]tribute to heaven ? don't make me laugh [...] another shameless attempt to rip off and do to death already tired tracks is more accurate."
+16474,2,Amusing...,"This movie is pretty amusing when you want something light to watch. Coming from a Minnesotan, I thought all of their accents were really forced but, hey, they tried. Anyway, its good fun but not to be taken seriously. We're not really trailer trash here. Lona Williams is from my town (rosemount) so it was fun to see familiar scenery in this movie."
+16475,1,Illiad,Book delivered in proper manner but the book was not in that good of shape. Book has writing in it...many pages of writing and few pages glued together. Should maybe look over books before put up for sale.
+16476,1,Maria Schriver's a much better writer,"From the US Constitution of (especially the commerce clause) to the German Zollverein to the EEC and EU, the history of the modern world has been one of economic integration and removal of obstacles to trade. As for this book, I'd rather spend my money on Ms. Arnold Schwartenegger's silly book than this even sillier drivel."
+16477,2,Excellent book,It's a book that will change your point of view about investments and business. I will strongly recommend reading this book.
+16478,1,Poor Academic Work,"This book would be very appealing to the Unitarian perspective. However, it is not an academic read. One God One Lord presents the views of the authors well but tends to be repetitive and more philosophical than Biblical. If its a good theological read your looking for--I suggest finding something else."
+16479,2,I love it,"I love this product, not only looks great on my phone but the functionality is awesome!. I have friends that own razrs and asked me were I got my case, two of them already bought one like it"
+16480,2,Very useful,"I bought two of these, one for desserts and one for savory dishes, and have been very happy so far. I would have given it a 5 star rating but it stained the very first time I used it in a tomato-based dish. I wasn't really expecting that and it doesn't look as nice as it did."
+16481,2,Good Stuff!,"Once you get past the fact that the smell is a little strong (Rose, baby powder, and a touch of citrus) and put it on your skin, it's amazing! My skin is super soft and smooth, moisturized but not greasy, and it is even soothing on some of my red, irritated, acne prone areas.Awesome!"
+16482,1,Not what I thought it was going to be,The book is a great history lesson for the seminole tribe but not what I was looking for.Thank you
+16483,1,boring and hard to read,"hello,well i found this book boring, and very hard to read for someone has trouble reading...i love history but i just think this book was HORRIBLE....I had to read it for a book report..and i am still having trouble writing the book report...again HORRIBLE..dont' get it"
+16484,2,okay what now?!,"I just read two reviews on this little thing... one person said that alice in chains were ripping off puddle of mudd and the other person said they were ripping off godsmack!?!? HOW STUPID CAN THESE PEOPLE BE?!?! ALICE IN CHAINS came out BEFORE godsmack AND WAY BEFORE PUDDLE OF MUDD... not to mention the fact that puddle of mudd and godsmack are the one's who ripped this band off, so realize what the f&$* you're talkin' about before you go saying some nonsense junk... DIRT is a great album, and alice in chains is the s^%$ ...R.I.P Layne, rock on Cantrell"
+16485,1,Breaks Easily,"First, Accessory Export, was great. They shipped immediately and I will certainly buy from them again.The rubberized clip holster, however is not strong enough for normal use. I much prefer this type of holder for a cell phone and have had one for another phone that lasted over six years; outliving the phone. I bought this one when I got my new A707 and it worked fine - for about a week, when the plastic ""hinge"" tab(s) broke off as I was putting it on my belt. Thinking I may have been a bit rough, I ordered another (it again arrived promptly). It too only lasted about a week when the same hinge tabs broke. Both times, my handling was well within normal, light, handling. For my third try, I've ordered another brand."
+16486,1,the razor's edge,"You may be surprised at this, but I actually threw out this thINKing Classics' edition of the Razor's Edge! WHY?....Because the cover was horrendous! It really bothered me...so cheap and awful for such a great classic novel. Who decides on these sort of cover designs? HORRENDOUS and CHEAP!After throwing this book in the garbage I went to Amazon.co.uk and purchased the Vintage paperback edition of The Razor's Edge. Beautifully produced and in keeping with Somerset Maugham's great writing. There are a number of classics available in Vintage paperback editions."
+16487,1,Waste of money,"I bought this capo for my 12 string Seagull and it is difficult at best to get this work. It doesn't have enough tension to hold down all the strings and often either pulls them out of tune or the strings don't play. The closer you get to the headstock the worse it is. Not once have I ever been able to get it to work on the first fret, second fret is maddening, 3rd fret is slightly less maddening, fourth fret, hit or miss, and so on, it only gets marginally better as you move up the neck but what's the point of a Capo if you can't use it anywhere on the neck that you need to.I have a Keyser capo for my 6 string Washburn and it works beautifully, I just think they don't put enough tension on their ""12 string"" capos to be be effective. So I'm off to find a new better capo for my 12 string. If you are Seagull 12 string owner don't waste your time, energy or money on this capo you will only end up poorer, and more frustrated."
+16488,2,Why No CD?,"Like the others, I've been looking for this album which I owned years ago. It is hard to understand why there is no CD of this, or why iTunes or Amazon doen't offer it as MP3 downloads."
+16489,1,Ecrasez l'Infame!,"For some interesting background on this two-legged animal impersonating a human being, refer to Mr. Floyd Norris' New York Times article of 16 July 2001: An Executive's Missing Years: Papering Over Past Problems.How did this miscreant ever get to such positions of un-earned responsibility?"
+16490,2,A novel for its aesthetic value.,"The English Patient is simply a beautifully written novel. The love and romance is presented with powerful imagery and poetic language. Unfortunately, the storyline is quite difficult to follow and sometimes the poeticism of the prose becomes overwhelming. However, for readers who enjoy reading a novel purely for its aesthetic value will find The English Patient highly enticing."
+16491,2,Excellent product,"This product is excellent! It really gets the yellow tinge out that builds up in white clothing over time. I used this every once in a while when I lived in a city, but out in the country I use it even more often. It's a really wonderful product and I buy it in the largest size available. I really rely on this product and it definitely gets the job done!"
+16492,1,The Elves would die if they heard this!,"I've heard lots of Tolkien inspired music and this is some of the lowest end stuff. Period instruments are utilized to accompany almost tone deaf singing and disjointed melodies. Overly simplistic and almost all harmonies are discordanent and fail to conjure up more than a PBS Robin Hood documentary. It's jarring to the ears and nothing that you would envision hearing in Imladris or in any Faire Folk quarter. When you read JRRT's description of the Music of the Elves, it's deeply harmonized, full of meaning, rich in instrumentation and many voices. This CD does not encompass that in any way.On it's own, it is a decent peice of renaissance re-enacting, but it's pedantic and juvenile and in no way Elvish. This is something you'd hear in one of the dark alley's at the Pennsic War or at a local renaisssance faire."
+16493,2,Lego Star Wars Episode I Naboo Fighter,My grandsons had a fanatasic time assembling and playing with the Naboo Fighter! It was a great project for young boys and tested their skill and immagination in putting together and creating play scenarios for the plane!
+16494,2,Quirky and fun,"I was pleasantly surprised with this book. The summary on it did not do it justice. Fun and engaging characters, with a plot line and twist I did not see coming. I haven't had so much fun reading a new (to me) author in a long time."
+16495,1,stinky!!!!,"size and color were exactly as expected. The smell, however, is nasty! I returned them after trying to let them air out for 1 week, but the smell was so strong and nasty, everybody could still smell them. If you enjoy the smell of cat crap, these are the boots for you."
+16496,1,worst Marvel game ever,"If you are looking for a great Marvel game by Activison try Spiderman. This game is terrible. I rented this game, played through it, and I must say the plot and the character voices are amazing, but if it is gameplay you are looking for go somewhere else. In the comics and the movies, Wolverine has the power to heel from damage inflicted from the enemy, but in the game you have to go around looking for health bars. Automatic heeling would great, and very helpful in this game.Bottom line:Not worth renting, much less buying!"
+16497,2,A must for Bronte and poetry lovers!,"The poems of Branwell Bronte offer a poignant look inside the unfairly overlooked, talented brother of the famous Bronte sisters. His earlier poems tell of the childhood games, plays, and fantasies that were an indelible influence on the later works of Anne, Emily and Charlotte. His later, sadder poems are arguably as fine as his sister Emily's. Well worth a look!"
+16498,2,Pentax Optio S camera battery,I needed this battery for a 10-day overseas trip to Greece. Charging the new battery was quick and the charge lasted for my entire trip even with taking and reviewing tons of pictures and frequently turning the camera on and off!
+16499,2,Definitely recommended for beginners to Flash Cartooning.,"This is excellent book, I'm still working with it now, and it's going much smoother than I expected. I was a bit leery about buying the book at first, because I had bought a competitor's book first (Art of Cartooning in Flash). I was really disappointed with that one. This book however is great. I've only been working with it for two days and I already did my first bit of real character animation (Chapter 8's Stickman). I didn't expect to pick Flash up so quickly. Brilliant writing, Mark Clarkson."
+16500,1,Disappointing,"I just bought this movie as it looked good and I love Harvey Keitel and Bridget Fonda. But is it just me or is the acting really, really bad? It seems like a B movie. There's nothing particularly compelling about it in any way. I'm not an Elvis fan but I don't think the writer/directors wanted to find somebody who resembled Elvis to play the part. I don't think that was the point at all. Anyway, I still haven't decided if I can watch it drone on any longer! I don't recommend this movie. If you haven't seen Freeway with Keifer Sutherland and Reese Witherspoon; rent it..it's an older one that was overlooked but it's extremely entertaining!"
+16501,1,Terrible blender.,Within 3 months the motor burned out. The repairshop says this is very common with this blender. Also it leaks badly. I'll never buy a Krups product again !
+16502,1,I can't see what all the fuss is about!,"Having seen this film before it's release in the UK, I am astonished at the reaction from all the movie buffs over here. Every review, in my opinion, has gone completely over the top. Although mildly entertaining, comments like ""hilarious"" and ""the best horror movie you'll see all year"" are way off the mark. The best thing about the movie for me was the fact that it was so short. Without wishing to spoil the movie for anybody else just as you're finally expecting something exciting and scary to happen, the film ends."
+16503,2,"Very Nice, but...","Okay slip, and I would buy another one if I needed it. Another time, though, I would buy the next size larger and still feel comfortable that it wouldn't ""slip"" off of me! Since the politicians and the media report that Americans are becoming heavier, Vanity Fair might pay attention and not skimp on their products. :)I used to think that ""Vanity Fair"" meant outstanding quality, but I think that during the last few years they have joined the ranks of the only average."
+16504,1,Not really about Ra.,"Gave it a chance. However I disagree with the entire message of this movie. I believe that jazz is alive and kickin' today. It didn't die. Thank goodness, there are new ideas and sounds being recorded daily."
+16505,2,RHCP have grown up,"This is the Peppers' best album since the genious ""Blood Sugar Sex Magic"" was out. And the line-up is the same again. And once again you hear a lot of quality songs in Peppers' specific funky style. What differs this record is that it never gets as mindlessly funny, as BSSM sometimes got. I think, that's because with age band-members became more serious persons, and more professional with their instruments and composing skills. Most songs are slower, mellower and more aimed inwards, to the soul. This is a nice relaxing album, with some depth to the tracks. It just lacks the spark of perfection that BSSM had plentiful, but still is a good purchase. Many nice melodies will surely please you.Yet, if you want your music energetic and funny, you're probably best heading to the Peppers' starting albums."
+16506,1,Too Predictable,Not a bad beach read but nothing in this story is unexpected. I didn't really connect with the main characters. I was interested by the description in the supernatural aspects (the lights) it seemed like a mystery/love story that may have been unique but instead was a way too predictable love story.
+16507,1,TOSHIBA TV NOT WORTH IT,"We also bought this TV for my daughter's college room (thought it was great - small space, runs DVD, cheap) but after about 18 months it suddenly died. After reading the prior reviews, it is probably the internal power supply. She had it plugged into a surge protector, so it wasn't a surge. It may be cheap - BUT IT WAS NOT WORTH IT!"
+16508,2,Jane's body is the star!,"If you are expecting a great film, then leave this one alone. If you want to see Jane Fonda, in her prime, in various states of undress, then you are in luck!The 'strip tease' at the start of the film is infamous. If you use your 'pause' and 'stop' buttons on the DVD, you CAN see Jane's breasts a few times.Every costume Jane wears shows off her great body. Twice, her costume is torn up, and we see even more skin!My favorite scene is ""The Excessive Machine"". Jane is put in this 'organ' and stripped of her costume. The machine is meant to pleasure you to death. Jane Fonda is great here. She sells this scene for all it's worth. Soon, she is covered in sweat, and we get many close-ups of her face, as she gives in to the pleasure. Jane then gives what may be the best orgasm ever in a PG film.Again, the plot, and special effects are not that good. But Jane Fonda's body ROCKS!"
+16509,1,Not enough information,"I was very disappointed in this book. Not enough sourdough starters for the average cook. For instance, ""Peach Leaf Starter"", ""Hop Starter"", etc. The book was not worth the price. Unless you want unusual recipe's, don't get this book."
+16510,2,Best Green Powder You Can Buy,"Green Vibrance is the most comprehensive powder you can find. It's got everything in it! I mix it in my smoothie with emergen-c, protein powder, yogurt and blueberries, and I've got myself a nutritient-packed power drink to start my day. I recommend it to anyone that cares about maintaining a healthy body. Yay! Go Green!!"
+16511,1,poor movie,First off it was captioned which is ok if the movie has a good plot. The acting was terible and didn't make a lot of sence to me.
+16512,1,Not great...,"I didn't care for this grinder. It creates a ton of static when it's grinding so that the grounds stick to the cup, the grinder, your hands, everything, and make mess. It's also a bit of a pain to have to make sure the lid is completely locked before grinding... if you get a bit of grounds in the locking area, it gets very finicky. It also won't grind the beans evenly. I get beans crushed to powder and nearly whole in the same cup."
+16513,2,Nice,"These knives are tiny. They are perfect size for a keychain, but aren't practical for anything on a larger scale. The blade is very sharp, and the point very sturdy. My son stabbed his computer desk with this and the tip was unharmed. Overall, very good buy and great as an emergency sharp point."
+16514,2,Fond memories,"It is difficult to be unbiased about a book when the author graciously makes a personal appearance in your school's library and doesn't charge you an appearance fee...when the book mentions your grandparents by name...when the book brings back many, many memories of visiting the above mentioned grandparents as a child..but I will try. In Kentucky Woman, Mary Ellen has captured the quiet strength of southern Kentucky and it's people. Through Mrs. Klatte's conversations with Viebie Lee, diary entries, letters and family rememberances, a life story unfolds. A story of hardship, friendship, determination, affection, persistance, and above all-love. I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys reading ""real-world"" stories with strong women who successfully overcome major obstacles in their lives."
+16515,1,poor quality,"Interesting concept, but the quality of these things is ridiculously poor. I've found shop towels from the dollar store that are better made."
+16516,2,The Office - Season 3,"Love the series, and this one will not disappoint anyone who has already come to know ""The Office"". We are all familiar with these people, because we work with them everyday. What a great show, and the cast is excellent!"
+16517,2,"Funny, quirky movie","This movie is definitely eccentric, but all the funnier for it. The characters are quite unlikely but make us feel all the more normal by being more like us than we expect. Many humorous moments and great quotes."
+16518,1,Disappointing,"These may be the original artist, but these are not the original hits they played on the radio. These are new recordings of the hits. This should be stated in the Amazon ad."
+16519,2,Good Overall Study,"This book is a very good overall study of the philosophy of Jeffersonian John Taylor of Caroline. The author gives a great synopsis of Taylor's views on such topics as agrarianism, republicanism, democracy, and limited federalgovernment.Taylor's philosophy on separation of powers instead of John Adam's balance of the orders of democracy, aristocracy, and monarchy. Taylor rejects this view and shows how such a system actually "" divides people"" and "" concentrates power"". Taylor is the consistant exponent of Jeffersonian Republicanism, espousing a doctrine at odds with judicial review, nationalism ,and mercantilism. Overall a great buy."
+16520,2,the rols royce book of that sbject!,"there are many books on the topic juice book, and non of them that i have seen ,is coming near that book. this book is giving the reader the knoledge of the nutrition values, as well as the therapeutic aspects of each single fruit or vegetable, as well as for the mixed fruits and or vegetables as a healthy healing juices. there is also a section of diseases that are treated by specific fruits or vegetables juice combination.the reason of the healing properties for each juice is also explain in a very simple, and easy to understand,plus a small section that is telling you what kind of a juicer is the most suitable to your specific needs.in short, and in general, this book is a comprehansive yet simple and correct, and easy to follow book,and you have my best recommandation.i am on my way to the juicer."
+16521,1,Picture is Better than Item Itself,"Tiffany-Style Mission Table LampThis product was not as nice as I expected. We had ordered two. The light bulbs blew out immediately. The leading between the glass is slightly sloppy. I would recommend for this type of item, purchase it in a store where you can examine the quality, and is easier to return if there is a problem. I guess you get what you pay for -- the cheaper the cost, the cheaper the quality of the item."
+16522,2,Ancient cities of the Bible,Written from at time when exploring the obscure places mentioned in the Bible took rare courage and some insight.
+16523,2,Emotional grabber,"It is hard to read this book in more than two or three days... and you know what that means (as other reviewers have warned): neglect of sleep, work, home family, etc. It is a very compelling story excellently written that grabbed me emotionally in an unexpectedly intense way. The book really isn't about chess, so don't worry if you aren't all that interested in chess. Chess is just part of the setting. Likewise, if you are familiar with Walla Walla,Whitman College, or Topanga Canyon you'll enjoy the settings, but they're just the backdrop. The book really is about the intense desperation that young love can bring. It's also a terrific tale that will keep you turning the pages into the night. When you're done, the feelings that this book elicited in you will remain for a long long time. This is one you should not miss reading, and sharing."
+16524,1,South Park DVD,False description on this product did not get what I oredered and did not have any infomation on what type of DVD continental player it would work on.
+16525,1,Not Backed by Whirlpool,Purchased two of these filters. The first lasted a little over one month. Just got off the phone with Whirlpool and they only have a warranty if you buy directly from them. They said they do not have a contract with Amazon. Now to contact Amazon.
+16526,1,ehhh.,"I thought this would be great for the kids rooms because we have such a small house. The only problem is that the hooks were too big to use, and I had to get different hooks. Then my 3 year old found it extremely easy to rip them out of the wall. It also takes up a huge amount of space in a corner. It also sinks A TON! I put it at my shoulder level and it sinks down to my daughter's height. I don't even use them. I kinda feel like they are cheap crap."
+16527,1,Very Disapointing,I have loved Scott Turow's previous books. This one is one of the worst books I've ever read cover to cover. It just got more tedious and less interesting as it went along. The ending was pitiful.
+16528,1,What a Waste of Money,"This is the only toy my 5 year old son begged for this year for Christmas. I don't have a lot of money as I am a single parent, but I saved up and spent the $90 for the Terrain Twister and the battery pack that AMAZON said was required! Christmas morning we discovered that it was the wrong battery pack!!! My son was so disappointed. I told him I would buy the right pack and I did after 2 weeks of searching the stores...What a waste, the twister still is pretty much useless! It only works for about 5 minutes and then stops and it does not work at all in snow! My son is so disappointed and keeps saying he can't believe Santa would make such a junk toy!!! Shame on Tyco for ripping parents off and disappointing the kids (and the parents) and shame on Amazon for making such a big blunder in recommending the wrong pack!"
+16529,1,"A little advanced, examples could be better","I'm a senior math major and am using this book in my Analysis I class. I find it a bit difficult to follow, and many students in my class agree that the examples are too few and lack simplicity. It would help if there was an answer key in the back of the book so that solutions could be confirmed. Also, the exercises are not very similar to the examples of a given section of a chapter. Lots of room for improvement."
+16530,2,safe for birds,"3 parakeets + 2 cockatiels + their seeds = too many moths!!! We picked this particular product as it is bird-safe. Works immediately - even as we were taking it out of the package and setting it up, moths were attracted to it. just set it up & leave it - nothing further to do."
+16531,2,Andru Donalds,"...I loved every song on the cd. The cd helped me in a time of need. I really liked this girl in highschool and ""mishale"" put my feelings in perspective and made them tangable. It is now 9 years past, and me and that girl are not together but i still listen to the cd.. Believe me this cd will help you with any girl. Just listen to the songs and let your emotions in your heart live what Andru is saying. Let your imagination take over. Highly recommended...."
+16532,2,News Flash: Kinks Faces Recently Seen On Milk Carton!,"When the tour to support ""Sleepwalker"" hit Detroit's Cobo Hall back in 1977, the mighty Kinks were given the middle slot on a three-band bill, just above Ray Manzarek's Nite City and just below (believe it or not) Heart. Par for the course since The Kinks never seemed to get the respect they so richly deserved stateside, at least not until the arena rock trappings exhibited on ""Low Budget."" ""Sleepwalker,"" like ""Muswell Hillbillies,"" is perfect, with not a duff track to found within its grooves. ""Life On The Road,"" ""Juke Box Music,"" and the title track are all mandatory listening and validate Ray Davies' reputation as a pop music visionary and genius. Golden..."
+16533,1,Not enough quilts for me.,This is a beautiful book that contains many gorgeous color photos of flowers. I would have liked to see more about quilts...which is why I bought it.
+16534,1,total POS,"Comes with only one wire. requires constant tightening due to stretch, finally broke after a few months. No replacement wire is available. Don't waste your money."
+16535,2,"I wish I could rate more than 5 stars, Awesome EP...","This CD is the ultimate car music. When you're rolling at 60 on the interstate, this stuff pumps you up. No need to skip songs, they're all good. Pay special attention to #2 (Clockwork). A must buy."
+16536,2,dream,"I remember when I thought this film was controversial lol that is until I saw ""Bully"" Anyway this movie is about a boy who is obsessed with (...) girls and well all the kids lives are pretty much full of drugs and sex. Good ending, what goes around comes around."
+16537,1,Disappointed,"I just got the book a week ago and this book is old and outdated, it is not hard to tell. There are very few pictures, and a distorted sense of organization. Half of the pictures were drawings of irrelevant knives. I thought I would get detailed information about throwing, but most of the book is dedicated to famous knife throwers, and not to helping you learn. It is short and overpriced. A real let-down. I would get a more up-to-date book on the subject."
+16538,1,Still no magazine,"Like so many others here, I ordered my subscription on May 30th along with several of my friends. None of us have gotten are magazines from ""Future.""Talking to one of their customer services reps, they said it was suppose to arrive on August 13th but never showed. They said the same thing to one of my friends.If I don't get my first magazine my the end of the month, I'm going to dispute the charges with my credit card company."
+16539,1,"Boring, a big disappointment","I found this new release incredibly disappointing. I wish I had listened to as many of the selections as I could have before I bought it. Instead, I rushed out and bought it on the first day of release. Can I get my money back? All the arrangements sound the same and I was bored by the third cut. And, I had to delete it from my itunes library in case it ended up on my shuffle!"
+16540,1,Not bad but nowhere near good,It was just to long and boring. I had to read it in school and I just wouldn't recomend this book to ANYONE! Try J.R.R. tolkien or brian jacques for something worth reading.
+16541,1,Butchered Boy!,"I loved the Butcher's Boy and The Informant. However, this middle book in the trilogy is a bore and a total waste of time. Life is too short to have to plow through drek like this."
+16542,1,Not as helpful as it looks,"The information provided by this book is limited. It touches several variations of ABS using case studies and market introduction but has done nothing but repeat the securitization process and entities involving the process. It's ok as an intoduction book but far from a good ""handbook"". I would not recommend it for any quants or traders as it tells not much about how to model and hedge ABS's."
+16543,1,"Cd great........ book, not great","My husband is an AVID Dennis DeYoung fan. When this book came out he wanted it since Dennis includes a new song with purchase of the book. The book is I'd say good for the 18-25 group....anyone older would look at it and think ""expensive Harlequin romance novel"". Her sex ""scenes"" are pretty explicit... which in my opinion does not fit the rest of the ""Rated G"" book. Bottom line if I could have purchased the cd minus the book I would have."
+16544,2,Glad to Have It,I went from a transfer bench to this. No more water on the floor and it fits fine in our tub. It's very solid and sturdy.
+16545,2,YELLOWCARD CAN ROCK YOUR SOCKS OFF!!,"There are so many reasons why you should start rocking out to Yellowcard's CD, Ocean Avenue. The band is totally unique because normally, rock bands wouldn't have a violinist. The music they play is awesome and the guys are also awesome! You should really try listening to their songs and you'll be glad you did."
+16546,1,"Quirky, Offbeat,...Disappointing","I'd exhausted the recommendations of the local video specialist and was looking for that quirky original gem for a movie that would keep me entertained and be able to pass on to friends and family as a hot rental. As I was rather new to the Internet and this site I took to heart this movie when I read the prevoius reviews and figured this was the one.To say the least disappointing. The characters were quirky, offbeat and original but the movie plodded along at a rather pedestrian pace with little or no dynamics. To me it was a movie that was trying to be too odd, offbeat, etc. but tried too hard to be different to a fault. It certainly lost the attention of the spouse after the first 15 minutes, but I can't use her as a barometer to judge movies. Still it was like watching an un-popular guest at a party trying to overcompensate and instead coming off as un-popular AND desperate.I've definitely seen worse but I was hoping for more. A disappointing rent for $3.50."
+16547,2,Love it!,"Simple set up. Insert disc, plug in camera and moments later you are all set.We ordered the webcam for my husband to be able to chat with the kids while on trips. He said it was a piece of cake to set up, so I purchased a second one for the kids to use on their computer. Now they can call dad, even when the laptop is off. I have been very pleased so far."
+16548,2,Great advantage,"Wonderful mapping capabilities from the software.The dashboard mount works wonderfully well. We are using it with the weighted mount, no physical attachment to the dashboard."
+16549,2,The right fit,"He said I shouldn't buy his jeans online, I said they're Wranglers, same size you've always worn, they'll fit. They did. Bless Wranglers for being true to the size they say they are."
+16550,2,Good stuff,"Straight-forward language artfully used, alternating prose poems and free verse. Ignatow's writing expresses the implications of an existential world view for an ordinary human living in today's strange, interesting world. Beautiful work, without being self-conciously ornate. I recommend it to thoughtful readers who appreciate well written contemporary poetry. This isn't the stuff of ""slam""--as the title says, it's an ordinary voice, in a respectful whisper void of vanity."
+16551,2,"Love, love, love it!!!!","Hey, its not a title I gave myself, but my husband and neighbors call me a sprinkler freak. Ok, I own several, maybe way more than several and I give away some of the ones I don't like. Well, I am here to tell you that this is absolutely the best sprinkler I have ever found. What makes it even better is the price. I have paid way more than this for a sprinkler and hated it. This one does the job, lightweight, easy to understand adjustments, etc.THE BEST ON THE MARKET!!! I love, love, love it!!UPDATE AS OF NOVEMBER 2, 2010 @ 2:00 AM - WINDOWS OPEN, COOL FRESH AIR COMING IN ALONG WITH WATER DROPS..??? THE HEAD BLEW OFF OF THE SPRINKLER IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT, BECAUSE THE TOP AND PARTS BLEW SO FAR AWAY, I CAN'T EVEN FIND ALL OF THE PARTS IN ORDER TO PUT IT BACK TOGETHER AGAIN!!! WOW, THE OTHER LADIES' COMMENT ON MINE WAS CORRECT! FOUR (4) MONTHS IS NOT A LONG TIME FOR A SPRINKLER TO LIVE! SO AS OF NOW, I HATE, HATE, HATE IT!!!"
+16552,2,Great alternative to chairs!,The bench worked well with our kitchen table. We needed additional seating and were tired of the chairs breaking. This works for us!
+16553,2,This game is fun and interesting,"Aidyn Chronicles The First Mage is a good game to get if you like games like Dragon Warior.I love how the characters do battle, because it makes the battle come more alive.I also like the story line and the interesting characters you meet along the way."
+16554,1,Laxative Diuretic,"The sugar substitute and another ingredient used in all these products is a strong laxative, its unbearable and therefore uneatable. The bars taste great and would be the best out there except you will regret it within 30 minutes. For crying out loud, everyone knows maltodextrin AND maltitol is a serious diuretic/ laxative, use splenda."
+16555,1,Don't board this boat,"Concur with the reviewer who was very disappointed with the sound quality of Penchant to Dream. That was the only song where Andy Bell's amazing voice could potentially be utilized, but the mix came out like a bad load of laundry: static-y and murky.For some reason critics like this album. However, its abysmal chart performance in the UK and US reflects its true nature. It is extremely mediocre and put me to sleep. Sounded like Clay Aiken droning to over-produced drivel.The best Erasure album is I Say, I Say, I Say."
+16556,1,Securom = The Reckoning,Spore uses Securom. Securom is one of the worst and most invasive techniques used by companies to protect their interests regardless of what the consumers wish for. Remember that software cannot be returned once open and at this point it would be too late. Do not waste your money on this product.
+16557,1,Wrong era Producer trying to be clever SPOILT,Another producer trying to be clever! Manon does not belong in this or last century. The whole beauty of Manon is spoilt if the setting is in another era. Social attitudes change with time. My Manon belongs two centuries ago. I sent my copy back by return. Please do not encorage this practice or some idiot will produce Werther set in the Space Shuttle!
+16558,2,"Holy crap, what the hell is this?","I'm sorry but these guys are really impressive. Necrophagist are one of the fastest, most furious death metal bands on the planet. Amazing time signature and tempo changes, a lightspeed guitarist and bassist (he's a hell of a shredder too) and an incredibly technical drummer make Epitaph one damn fine album. True the vocals are a bit cookie cutter (as in cookie monster), oh well, its death metal. The musicianship and songwriting are topnotch though and somewhat melodic if not wholly original. I detect some definite Morbid Angel influence, but even in their heyday MA never played with such ferocity. Necrophagist even quote a bit of Montagues and Capulets from Prokofiev's ballet Romeo and Juliet at the end of Only Ash Remains. Pretty Cool."
+16559,1,"Please, please finish!","I have struggled through this book only because of stubborness and determination. It goes nowhere, addresses nothing, has no action and resolves nothing! For slow reading and lack of interest, I would definitely rate it a 5.I will wait for the reviews before I buy another book in this series. Perhaps it would be best to save your money and not buy Crossroads. Just skip to Book 11 (assuming that it is somewhat better)."
+16560,2,"""Stockdale""","""Stockdale"" is a real stretch of literary muscle with real to life characters, very believable!"
+16561,1,Don't Waste Your Money or Risk Your Health on this Book!,"A patient of mine presented this book for my opinion. After a brief review of Peskin's book I was aghast at his suggestions. Food items in his recommended diet included bacon, ham and deli meats; all laden with nitrates, a known carcinogen.An additional reference advocated plant sources of omega-3 fatty acids, citing that all fish oils are tainted. This is a falacious statement as even the best plant sources of omega-3 are at least 50% omega-6 which is already abundant in most diets.Good quality fish oils are available that are virtually devoid of all contaminants and are independently tested for purity.How can any book that purports to treat cancer make such recommendations and misstatements?Dr. Glenn B.

+16562,1,Way too big for a woman!,"My mouth is completely torn up from wearing this just 2 times during roller derby practice. . I admit, I am a small 5 1"" woman, but this guard is way too big. I regret making my 12 year old wear one of these for football."
+16563,1,Didn't work,"I had to watch this film for a graduate course I was taking, but once I bought it I was unable to view it on my computer. I think it was an error on my computer...something with my flash player."
+16564,2,Great little add-on for Sony Ericsson phones,"Although you will need to provide your own power and usb cable, this is still a great accessory. It will simultaneously charge your phone with the AC while connected to your computer. Or you can elect to not connect to your computer and use the additional side port to connect to headphones or speakers. This feature is not mentioned in the specs. Also, when power is connected to the base, a bright green light stays on making it easier to see in the dark - and it just looks cool, too! They probably should have included this in the box, but since they at least do send a power, usb cable, and headphones unlike most manufacturers, I guess I can't be too picky. I recommend all Sony Ericsson owners have this cradle."
+16565,1,A dated work,"Although accurate in its content for the time it was written, this book is too old to be a help with the variety and complexities of the fast-changing world of Print-on-Demand in 2011."
+16566,1,There's a reason this was only on TV,"The original Patton motion picture is a masterpiece and one of my favorite movies. George C. Scott is a genius and one of my favorite actors. I was happy to find this movie on Amazon on Demand, but was disappointed with the movie itself.-Looks like a low-budget made for TV movie which it is.-Casting was poor. Outside of George C. Scott these were a bunch of B or C actors. Richard Dysart as Eisenhower was particularly bad.-As noted in many other reviews, the video quality was poor.-Way too long and way too depressing.I was hoping this movie would cover more of the postwar Patton and less of George C. Scott lying in a hospital bed. If they cut off the last third of the movie, it might be four stars.I recommend you pass on this movie, at the very least stop watching after the accident. He suffers paralyzed in a hospital bed and dies. There is nothing useful after that point and there is a LOT of overacting."
+16567,2,It's not the destination--it's the journey,"Mr. Pears's chilly stripped-down revenge thriller unfolds in monologue form and does so splendidly. Its outcome is predetermined from the very beginning, but the telling is delicious, and its tour of the early-20th-century art scene is engrossing."
+16568,1,Not very impressed...,"I bought this for my 5 year old, who loves anything princess and anything to do at her desk (notecards, pencils, etc.) She was thrilled to open it Christmas morning but hasn't used it since. The pencil sharpener broke the first time she tried to use it and the tape dispenser is difficult to work. This toy looks cute but is definitely not worth $19.99."
+16569,1,Not a good choice for me,"It may be unrelated but I am unable to give this product a second chance. Perhaps it was a coincidence or perhaps the dosage was too high but after1-2 days of trying this product I had extreme intestinal cramps like I never experienced. I had started this product and had also changed to a new probiotic. The Monday after my Saturday/ Sunday cramping I just happened to have my yearly physical exam with a stool sample and it showed blood . I had to have this test repeated in several weeks and all was fine. Our guess was some problem with diverticula....was it coincidence that it occurred when I started two new products.. maybe...but I am unwilling to try it again. I regret saying this in case it was totally unrelated, which is possible."
+16570,1,Anti-Israeli myopia,"Findley's book reflects an obvious hatred of all things Israeli. There are many unsourced quotes. Most importantly, he does not deal at all with the territorial rights of Israel in the mideast, both historivally and politically."
+16571,2,"Great, but be careful-they tear","This is one great price, if your looking for a case get it!Don't be throwing this around or letting it be in a car where your feet go-it can rip.Overall it's great quality, keeps cd's clean, good looks, durable-highly reccommend.!"
+16572,1,Simply boring!,"I read the reviews on this CD and based on them, purchased it. It's one of, if not the most, diappointing purchases I've made on Amazon. The production and performance quality are both marginal. I've tried to listen to the CD multiple times and can't get through it. I enjoy all types of music, but primarily listen to Blues, this CD made me blue."
+16573,2,Put down that Danielle Steel novel and read some Burgess!,"As usual, Anthony Burgess succeeds in creating a completely believable, yet overwhelmingly unsettling other world that the reader could even see him or herself living in. I heartily recommend this book - Burgess's command of the English language in such a tight grip that he easily runs cynical circles around his audience, leaving him or her wondering how they ever arrived so smoothly at such a grotesque conclusion."
+16574,1,Bad Product Update,"Zico used to be my coconut water of choice. When I first saw the new packaging I was excited that it would be easier to close and store. I was shocked when I tasted it - it is NOT the same product! The taste really turned me off. I've since switched to O.N.E. coconut water.I also determined that the new bottle size is too big of a serving. I like to drink coconut water before going to the gym because I've found it helps with endurance. It is not as convenient for me to carry the larger (by about 3 oz.) bottle, especially since I can't finish the entire thing in one sitting."
+16575,2,Nice - but note the size,24 inches is a good size for a medium / small size dog.It is too small for a 30 pound corgi.
+16576,2,"Great work, however","I really love this stuff, however no footage of the battle of midway? The most pivotal point in the war of the pacific! But I'm completely satisfied with the price. (HD cheaper than SD?)"
+16577,1,Absolutely Awful,"It's hard for me to articulate exactly how flat and unlistenable this CD is. It's horrible. No bass. No pattern of any kind. And, although I know I sound like my parents, it's just noise. Save your money."
+16578,2,Does anyone want to discuss the ending?,"As with all of Marsden's book, this was intriguing andbrilliant. I am 22, however I still enjoy all his books that aremeant for teenagers, especially the ""Tomorrow"" series. The reason I am posting this review is because I would love to correspond with someone and discuss the ending to ""Letters from the Inside"". Anyone who has read it will know how frustrating the ending is and at the moment I can only speculate with myself as to what exactly happened. Please write! Thanks! END"
+16579,1,Over rated reviews,"This scope is an adequate scope for wild life or scenery, but for hunting and/or target shooting it is not up to standard. The scope feels light, the tripod is difficult to adjust precisely, and at the highest magnification the view is blurry/fuzzy. The light is adequate, but the blurry image is a big minus. Even for the price I would expect something a little better. Returned it for refund."
+16580,1,Hiatt plays in Maine,"Where did the title ""Hiatt comes alive at Budokan"" come from when all the tracks where recorded during his 1994 tour, only one in California, and that one in San Luis Obispo, not at Boudokan??? The fifteen tracks represent some of Hiatts biggest hits including 8.""Have a little faith in me"", 11. ""Perfectly good guitar"",and ""Slow turning, but unfortunately the sound quality suffers compared to his studio albums. ""Walk On"", ""Perfectly good guitar"", and ""Bring the family"", are better choices if you want to hear John Hiatt at his best."
+16581,2,"Awesome, Awesome, Awesom!!!!","This is a true gem!!! I stumbled upon this CD in a search for for something else and I've been so blessed by it. ""Great is Thy Faithfulness"" is off the chain!!! I'm eagerly awaiting their next project."
+16582,1,Big disappointment,"I love both of these musicians. I was really disappointed in this CD, though. The recording quality is mediocre -- sounds like it was done in their garage. The songs are all too slow and too long, with simply no variety to keep your interest. I'd definitely recommend you go with either artist's other recent releases instead."
+16583,2,A good talking-to from your screwed-up but cool uncle,"You can't manufacture the kind of honesty and soulfulness that pours out of Steve Earle's throat. He's definitely the real thing, with the courage to say when and where he screwed up. Like all great artists, he's a man of contradictions, too. Shane MacGowan and Paul Westerberg are the only other songwriters who match his alternating hardness and softness. This album is a cautionary but never preachy look at the life of an outlaw. You sense the pull of that life and you hear about the pain. Earle doesn't tell you to avoid it, he just says, ""Hey, do what you want but here's what happened to me""."
+16584,2,Great,I read this book when I was 19 and it changed my life and way of thinking. I am now 30 and still refer back to it.
+16585,2,Terrific sheets,"Love these sheets. They truly are wrinkle free. They feel great, wash great! I can't wait to get another set!"
+16586,1,Not great...,"I bought this book because my son started talking about outer space and rockets, etc... I also bought it because we have several other Byron Barton books and my son really enjoys reading and looking at. However, this book is a little boring, doesn't keep his interest and isn't on the same level as the other Barton books."
+16587,1,"Well Intentioned, But Off Center","Mr. Lehaye's clear intent was to bolster our confidence in the Christian roots of our country. Unfortunately, his depiction while factual leaves out ideas that would give his reader's a better perspective on the Faith of our ForeFathers."
+16588,2,This is a very fun cd!,At the first listen I was hooked. They play very catchy songs. They remind me of the hives but they have their own sound. I absolutely love every song on this album!! They are very poppy but in an edgy vein. I have never seen them live but I am sure they would be a fun band to see. This is a band you can shake your hips to and I for one think that is a good thing!! Definitely check them out if you like to dance.
+16589,1,Started dripping after 3 years.,"I bought this kitchen faucet from Amazon in 2008 for $58 and thought I would never have to worry about it ever again. Wrong! It started dripping after only 3 years. Sure it has a lifetime warranty, but it's hardly feasible to remove it, mail it back to Delta, and then wait weeks to get a replacement back ... if you get one back. I'm very disappointed in this product. It certainly isn't worth the $98 Amazon wants for it now. You can get a $10 faucet at Walmart that will last longer than this one."
+16590,1,Completely Worthless,"I can't believe that this book made it past the editors. It is so trite, so predictable, so cliche ridden with characters that are one dimensional and very unbelievable. This book asks that you suspend any critical examination of the likelihood of its plot with reality. Very disappointing, but the best part of the book was that it was a library book that I didn't buy and it was short. After Caucasia I was hoping for Ms. Senna to return with another captivating novel, but not this time. Check it out from your local library if you must, but don't waste the money on it."
+16591,1,"A good example of how a ""name"" begins to get spoiled","I agree with Mr. Bradley Kulman as well as with the reader from Prague who wrote on July the 10th, 1999 (Cfr. Supra.). In fact, I visited Budapest with this guide, just some days later: from July the 23th to the 27th. I also lived the ""Vaci Utca adventure"" related by my Prague's colleague. The most disapponting matter of this guide was, for me, the way they divided the city map in the ""street finder"" chapter, which is superb in other Eyewitness guides like Rome's. Maybe this is the worst Eyewitness Travel Guide (and I hope) ever."
+16592,1,phlegmatic and didactic,"I'm a big fan of Celibidache's live recordings from the 1960's with the Italian orchestras from rome and milan, etc. but what we have in these late EMI releases that I've heard is possibly an example of ideology clouding judgement. Particularly in Tchaikovsky where rhythm and color are essential aspects of the Russian melos, this approach just won't wash. Anyone familiar with Russian style from the early conductors, Golavanov, Dubrowen, or pianists like Rachmaninoff, whose lineage to Tchaikovsky cannot be seriously questioned, will likely find this performance of the Tchaikovsky 5th deeply unsatisfying. It is not only phlegmatic and colorless, but sounds like the conducting of a provincial kapellmeister. The concept that music must be slow enough to hear all the elements is theoretically true, but this is positively sclerotic. Sorry. For modern versions, try Mravinsky naturally, and Horenstein if you can find it."
+16593,1,Weird,"I bought this book after the author was awarded the Nobel prize this year for his literary work. The book is definitely different... fantasy cannibalism in communist China appears to be the main focus of the book. The translation is hard to follow, and the Kindle edition contained a number of misspelled or omitted words. Overall, I do not think this book is worth an average person's limited ""reading"" time."
+16594,1,Wack Ballz,"I recently saw Yak open for Mr. Lif in Philly and my friend and I couldn't believe how aweful the lyrics where. Yak's voice is not for everyone, and his delivery and flow are skillful, but he was spitting about the most moronic stuff I've heard in a while. Lines referring to ""sipping on"" alcohol and ""not giving a #@!$"" were thematic of his whole attitude---he was preoccupied with conveying some measure of 'badness' (he probably mentioned his 'crew' about 20 times) and completely negating the opportunity to rap about something culturally clever, conceptual, socially-engaged, et cetera. He seems like the kind of guy who hangs out with people who start fights and have pencil-thin mustaches/flat-brimmed baseball caps. I was embarassed for him, by him, and wished desperately that he'd stop rubbing his pinky finger against his pectorals in that stroke-victim/hood-rat gesturing sort of way. I can't believe Def Jux associates themselves with him..."
+16595,1,"OK, but not worth the money ...","I bought this car seat to match my Perego Venezia, and am extremely dissapointed. After everything I heard about how wonderful Perego merchandise is and my own experience (the Venezia is excellent, and the Prima Pappa highchair is a dream), this is quite a let down. My son was born 8lb 10oz at which point he fit quite nicely - without the newborn cushioning! Now at 4 months and almost 18 lb, he has outgrown it. He overheats in it as the seat is so narrow, and is uncomfortable after more than a half an hour, not able to recline more comfortably. I would reccomend the Graco Snugride for a first timer, and at this point we are moving into the Britax Roundabout. I'm sorry to leave my Snap'n'go this early in my sons life though simply because the car seat is just too small. Perego needs to update itself some more in its car seat department!"

+16598,1,Try another one instead,"We are expecting our first in a few weeks and just bought this glider for it's low price and the fact that it was in stock. We put it together last night and the snaps that attach the fabric were sewn inside out, which made it impossible to attach to the rocker. There was also a huge black stain on the back fabric piece. When I contacted the company, they informed me that the fabric pieces could be replaced by them free of charge, but they are out of stock. They said it may not come in until the end of September or early October before they would ship it. We can't wait that long. We also had problems with a dresser from the same company and are awaiting a replacement door (which has taken several phone calls over several weeks to find out where it is...we are still waiting for that door)"
+16599,2,Review of Homeland TV series DVD - Season One,"After all the hype on the media about this television show it did not diappoint. The writing is clever, intregueing and keeps you focused with its twists and turns. The acting is superb by all. I can hardly wait to view season two. I recommend to any mature audiance who loves spy mysteries loaded with intrigue ans action while looking into the personal lives of the maine characters."
+16600,2,A True Cult Classic!!!,"Evil Dead is one the most stylish, gory, campy, and hilarious horror films of all time. It contains a few of the best low budget gore-fest scenes ever, and it is tremendously entertaining. A must-see for any fan of the genre."
+16601,1,Does It Ever Stop?,"Yet another printing of timeless old war horses of American serious music! This is just another way for Sony to make a few bucks off of stuff they've had laying around for decades. (""Nothing new here, folks. Move along."")Is the music good? Of course! Along with ""Rhapsody in Blue"" these selections are the most purchased pieces of American music in the category.Should you have this recording? Well, look at it this way: If you'd like to have a Xeroxed copy of the New York Times for December 7th, 1941, I suppose you couldn't get hurt....except that it's a copy...and copies always are lacking in integrity. This CD is no different. The sound is, to me, lacking.I wouldn't buy it. Why? Well, I've had these pieces in my library for 25 years."
+16602,1,Corel Photo Paint 9,"Very difficult to follow not at all user friendly. This is a very old program from the early 1990's and was a hand me down. I was able to do everything I needed to do with just surfing around the program. Recently I was looking to make a transparency, that was the primary reason I purchased the book. The book give you general terms or terms that the average person does not understand. It does not give you the step by step instructions. You have to learn all the technical terms to understand what the author is talking about. In other words you have to start at the beginning and memorize or underline ever passage that you think might be important later. I learned how to make the transparency at free location on the net. For me the book was a waste of money. I give the review rating a 1 star while the book seller a five star since they performed their job and cannot guarantee everyone is happy with the book"

I believe last year was a great year for debuts, greatest hits, etc...but so far its been a bad year for P.O.D., Limp Bizkit, Staind, & Linkin Park. Nickelbacks ""The Long Road"" was pretty good but not the best. Last year we had 3 Doors Down, Audioslave, Trapt, Seether, Queens of the Stone Age, Foo Fighters, The Used, and awhole bunch of great albums. This year has been a major disappoint for follow-ups to great 2001 albums. Hopefully Puddle of Mudds new Cd will cheer me up. I recommend Rage Against the Machnine over this any day of the week. We always have 2004 to look forward to..."

Here is a party band, keyword being party who isn't exactly known NOT to take anything too seriously, unless your listening to the Flesh and Blood Album. This is a good ol party album. If you like songs like Ain't Nothin but a good time and Look what the cat dragged in you will love this album. Long live Poison...the way back to good ol fashioned rock n roll."
+16609,1,Movie lovers-you can skip this book,"Before I purchased this book I read the two prior reviews and thought I'd give it a try. I found that if you enjoyed the movie on any level (cast, characters, actors, story-line), then forget purchasing this book. It has absolutely nothing to do with the movie in any way. They must have just liked the title and purchased the rights to it.I found the writing to be readable but not outstanding. The story unremarkable. None of the characters likeable or warm in any way with no real direction. If you want to read a modern day western, then Annie Proloux or Larry McMurtry or Tony Hillerman are far superior. This was a dissapointment."
+16610,1,Everybody is right.............What is all the fuss about,"This sounds just like Dave Matthews, becuase in fact drum rolllllllll. Every single thing he does sounds the same. GASP! I know some frat boy wants to kick my ass right now, and his preppy little girlfriend is crying while watching her new boxset of Friends she got for Christmas, and I am trully sorry for that.I am kidding ofcourse I am not sorry in the least. Having heard every release by this crappy band, usually through a friend or two who pretend to like them becuase it's ""cool"" I noticed one thing that they have finally run their course and hopefully will give up. Seriously give me any example of how this sounds any different from any of their other releases. The tempo and the intstruments might change but the horrible Matthews sound is still front and center in everything they do! These guys allways have and always will SUCK!"
+16611,2,Great Product!!!,"Outstanding quality. A little expensive, but the scent is nice but too subtle for my taste. I like a scent that wakes me up in the morning like Truefitt & Hill 1805. Overall enjoyable to use. I only gave it 4 for the scent."

+16614,1,Bursting with goo....,"I ordered these because I wanted to try something new due to me being on a low carb diet. I love slim jims, but these nach flavored ones are not for everyone. Every time you take a bite, a burst of gooey, greasy cheese explodes in your mouth. Not a sensation I enjoy. Slim jims are greasy enough without having that extra ""oomph"" packed in.Ill give it an extra star due to being able to bite around the cheese and eat the tasty slim jim w/ out the cheese."
+16615,1,5 Stars / 2 Stars / 0 Star,"I have collected the Signature Collections for Gary Cooper, Bogie & Bacall, Robert Mitchum and James Stewart.All of the above are worthwhile efforts for those film icons.This is a dismal collection for one of my favorite actor.None of the films are significant from Burt Lancaster's long and illustrious film career. Truly disappointing.5 stars for Burt, 2 stars for the collection, 0 star for Signature Collection."
+16616,2,Dirty Rotten Scoundrels - Great Lyrics!,I loved the words to the songs - very clever. John Lithgow is terrific and the way he delivers his lines is wonderful. I can't wait to see it when I am in NYC. I know I will love the show now that I have learned all the songs.

+16619,1,"FOR THE FIRST NEW CROW NOVEL, VERY POOR....","Upon reading this book again(my first review back in 2000 and btw..thats my mother's ID..my ID is Deaderman)., I find myself with a dislike for the story now. I applaud the originality of linking the crow with Edgar Allen Poe. I would say that i dislike the story for the simple fact of the Batlimore Goths and the seemingly forced love of Amy and William Blessing. I would not recommend this book to a new crow fan wanting to get into these. Most fans would say that the bad guys in CoA were poorly written and just plain crappy. Well, these guys are far worse. Makes you want to get the story over with just to get away from these poorly executed characters. I would very much agree with all of these negative reviews and in fact join them. Now, onto reading the Lazarus Heart.."
+16620,2,American Voltaire,"Did we need a Gore Vidal reader? The author is something of a long-winded blowhard, commenting at length (and I mean LENGTH) on every topic imaginable. In that respect he is America's Voltaire, creating reams of comment and interpretation on politics, the arts, and religion and morals. It's hard to say where Vidal fits in the framework of 20th century criticism, as he is not a conventional leftist. Because of his iconoclasm, this collection can only inform the reader about Gore Vidal, not his times nor any intellectual or political movement. All that said, Vidal is a great essayist and a droll wit. This book is much too much for the casual reader -- stick to one of his many shorter collections instead -- but for a Vidal fan (or, say, a reader of ""The Nation"") this book is worth the time commitment."

I have, so far, cooked only chicken, but each time it has come out juicy and the skin crispy.I must admit though, I think my favorite part of the oven is watching to food cook. It's like an Easy-Bake oven for adults.Really fun and super easy to clean."
+16625,2,improvement is noticable with extra time than directions state.,"I get good results with the derma-wand using it with Elizabeth Gant's anti-aging serums and doing it slightly differnt than the directions. It requires more work than advertised, but I don't mind, the results are worth it to me. (the directed way did not work with me)I use it once, or twice, a day. I cover all my skin in rows (like cutting grass with a lawn mower) leaving no area untreated (except tender eye-lids.) I use a high setting everywhere except upper-eye area under brows."
+16626,2,Strong Heavy Storytelling,"What I liked the most about Bag Of Bones was the insight in which Stephen King gives the writer mentallity, and shows a little of his heart to the genre, as well as his dedication to his work. With Mike Noonan, King develops a strong main character, a must for a novel of this type, told in first person. He develops strong supporting characters Mattie Devore, John Storrow, and does a superb job of entangling the reader in a two way story of ghosts and child custody. Bag Of Bones delivers some of the best twists in a Stephen King book, some that you will never see coming, and has a sad, but necessary ending. Bag Of Bones will leave the Stephen King fan with tears in their eyes, and butterflies in your throat. The novel symbolizes the aspect of writing, and you actually think at some points of the novel, is this Stephen King talking, or Mike Noonan?"
+16627,2,Awesome book..,It's a fun idea and my sister loves it! We will definitely be using this for our next Drink n' Draw!
+16628,1,Nowhere near as good as the original.,"The original What's Happening! is definitely one of the funniest shows of all time but the new What's Happening Now! doesn't even come close to matching the original. To compare the two is like comparing the Washington Generals to the Harlem Globetrotters. Yes, there really IS that much of a disparity among the two shows.One of the funniest aspects of the original was watching Rerun and Shirley make fun of each other and the comedy and wittiness of the dialogue between Raj, Rerun, and Dwayne hanging out at Rob's Place. Now the chemistry is gone and the dialogue is boring and dry. Even Fred ""Rerun"" Berry left the show after the first season because he said the writing was terrible and he was right. The only redeeming quality of the new series was to see Raj, Shirley, Rerun, etc again.Great to see the gang back together again but lousy writing ruins the experience. They should have quit while they were ahead.... "
+16629,1,Not the best Haynes book,I grew up working on cars with a garage full of tools and the Haynes manual for whichever car I was working on. This book I think tried to cover too much and leaves a lot out. The pictures are the worst I've seen in a Haynes Manual and the descriptions are pretty cryptic. They actually make it look like they don't want you to do much work on the car yourself.I have a 2002 Camaro SS that I will not take to the mechanic unless I absolutely have to. Unfortunately this book won't be much help.
+16630,2,Listening to Um Koulthum singing is an ecstasy,"Even though I do not understand Arabic language,I feel an ecstasy when Umm Koulthum's playing.

I invite you to listen to her just one time, and you'll never hesitate listening to her more and more."

Picked it up months later as an intermediate student and now find that I can follow along with Zoe. The dvd includes four disks and I must say, it never gets old and I'm able to supplement it in between classes. She covers so much in this DVD and it's all well-explained and demonstrated. I easily learned to flutter using her techniques! I'd say that lastly, she also covers things way in-depth that other dvd's don't; one being the most important, posture. I'd say that you won't go wrong buying this dvd, it's well worth the money."

It is comparable in every way to the more expensive feet massagers.Great product and fast delivery!"
+16635,1,Does not work w/ Kettrike Air Jumbo,"Purchased this item with the intent that I'd use it on the Kettrike Air Jumbo Tricycle. THIS ITEM DOES NOT WORK WITH THE TRIKE! The instructions are not altogether clear, the diagram supplied shows how to assemble it, but makes no mention as to why there's a second mounting bracket and stem, nor does it show which trikes it will work with. While I'm pleased with the build quality of the tricycle, I very disappointed in the lack of information regarding the push bar, and the poor documentation that comes with it. Ascertain if your tricycle will work with any of the push bars before purchasing."
+16636,1,Boring,Too much unnecessary foul language. Could get past the first twenty minutes. If you like watching boring movies then this is the one for you

+16639,2,Excellent Book,This the best book I ever seen on PL/SQL programming. It is good for beginners as well as for experience programmer for reference. Book layout is also good.
+16640,2,Informative,"This film contains a lot of information. I used this in my high school anatomy and physiology course when I was going to be out for a few days. In an educational setting it is important to note to the students that even though this is a documentary, not all of the information regarding the health care crisis is represented. This film kept the attention of 17 & 18 year olds which is quite a statement for a documentary."
+16641,2,A very good fantasy story,"""Glory Road"" is a very good fantasy story. I enjoyed it as a young adult and still enjoy it when I pick it up over forty years later. Very simply, this is a story about a soldier, coming back to the USA, who gets sidetracked by a beautiful young woman, who turns out to be the 'leader' of a multi-universe 'empire' of tens or hundreds of billions of humans.The nice thing about fantasy is that it does not get as out-dated as science fiction can get and it can stretch the mind. In this case, quite a few interesting and adventurous things happen. I will say that this book is probably too sophisticated for anyone younger than, about, 16 to 17 years old. Also, I doubt if a reader who is new to Heinlein would appreciate this book. If you are new to Heinlein, ""Space Cadet"" is a much better place to start. "" 'Waldo' & 'Magic, Inc.'"" is another very good Heinlein book of two fantasy novellas."
+16642,2,Ouch!,"I was all prepared to give this one a 10 but the ending ""bit"" me. The ending just did not jive. Having spent almost 35 years in federal law enforcement, the FBI is just not that good. I do read for entertainment however, so I could overlook some of the fanciful things. I would recommend it to others. On to Trunk Music. I like this author."
+16643,1,Good lite entertainment.,"Great action and painstaking attention to detail. However, (SPOILER) there is a scene where Agent Simmons- an inept, pushy, mean and stupid man - is forced to remove his clothes. Of course he is wearing commical boxer shorts; but is also wearing a bright chrome Cross around his neck. This is just another example of Hollywood going out of their way to impune and belittle Christianity."

Make anything it touches smell. We told them we wanted to return it,but Amazon just gave us credit for it and said to toss it."
+16646,2,Earth Science Praxis,This book is broken down into easy sections that include reviews to help the reader practice. i also loved the end of chapter exams. I used this book to help prepare for the Praxis Earth and Space Science exam.
+16647,1,Not recommended for couple play,"This product is probably pretty good for the anal beginner. The beads are small and easy to pop right in... but the tiny bit of ""string"" at the end of the beads makes it very hard to keep a hold of them if you plan on having sex with using them or having someone else use them on you. The beads slide in so easily that the rest (only about an inch and a quarter) can easily follow and give real reason to be scared. I don't recommend these even though they are priced to sell."
+16648,2,Where's Mona Lisa?,"Great soundtrack to a great movie. The only thing that is missing is ""Mona Lisas and Mad Hatters,"" the Elton John tune playing in the background when the band is in the hotel in NY. It's a great song and the lyrics are perfect for the scene."
+16649,2,Great,This product is a great learning tool and can't wait for my daughter to use and try this. I expercienced a fast response. Thanks
+16650,2,Danger and difficult decisions evolve,"In the near future three siblings are caught on different levels, between warring parents and a collapsing society. When their father devises a vacation for them, they don't suspect they're really being kidnapped and that an off-planet goal is the ultimate destination - when they do find out, danger and difficult decisions evolve in this fast-paced science fiction story which is especially strong on building the characters of three very different brothers."
+16651,2,Under-rated kung fu classic,"I wanted to write this review to defend this under-rated kung fu classic. This film was directed by Liu Chia-Liang, the absolute finest martial arts director ever. While this film is very different than the other in the ""Drunken Master"" series, it is still excellent. While the other films contained a lot of stupid comedy and excellent old-school kung fu, this film is more serious and realistic. The fight scenes contain the same outstanding creativity as does all of Liu Chia-Liang's work, but with this film the fights do not contain the same attack-pause-attack-pause, pre-scripted feel. The fights are fast and frantic. The one bad thing about the film is that there are a relatively small amount of fights. However, if you are a fan of true kung fu, and not the wire-work suggested by the other reviewer, this would be a great film to check out."
+16652,2,Pretty good read,"Good book. ienjoyed reading the story ofdylan and melissa. it could of had more to it, i like drama in a romance novel but i did enjoy reading this story."
+16653,1,Ripoff,Troopers 1 is good but 2 and 3 are incredibly cheap productions using old scenes from the first episode. The editing and story are second rate. Don't waste your money.
+16654,1,grow up,this brother is a joke.he a 40 year old man acting like a 17 year old it's time to grow up. kelly seem to be stuck in a second childhood. the older he get the younger he's dressing and acting this brother got deep mental issue.it's sad if you really look at him he almost middle age his children must be real proud they got a teenager for a daddy.
+16655,1,Could of done better,"Well what can I say, I'm a Don Omar fan but this album just didn't cut it. The beats were not up to the standard that we are all used to. The song writing was not his best by far. If your a Don Omar fan like me you should buy it for your collection, but don't expect to much."
+16656,1,Don't use frozen fruit with this blender!,"Every morning, except when the blender is broken, I make a smoothie with soy milk and frozen fruit for breakfast. I echo the complaints of others. The all metal drive is a lie! It is rubber, and every time a piece of frozen fruit gets caught wrong in the blade the part of the blender that connects the blade to the motor shears off. I take it back, get a replacement, and before long it does it again. I would estimate that I have gone through 5 of these blenders in the last 8 months.If you plan on using your blender to blend any kind of frozen fruit, buy something else. I haven't figured out what yet, but nothing by oster."
+16657,2,"A great purchase, but at what cost?","I noticed a dramatic increase in my reflexes and overall agility when I first wore this headband. That said, I worry that this headband might be too powerful for me, and might have been cursed. Since the headband's arrival there has been a dramatic increase in the amount of spiders in my room. Overall, I'd say it was totally worth it."
+16658,2,Great Pressure Cooker at a Great Price,"I've used pressure cookers for many years including some of those very expensive models. This is one of the best cookers I've ever owed. This cooker is constructed of high quality stainless steel and is very easy to use. Pressure cookers are very safe. If you follow a few simple rules, you'll never have a problem. I use my cooker weekly for everything from cream of potato soup to braised lamb shanks with wine sauce. Additionally, it is amazingly cheap to own. My only con: wish it was made in the USA, otherwise, highly recommend."
+16659,1,ITEM NOT AS PICTURED,I may return this item. The chain is not at all as pictured - no extension. The chain is also very lightweight and cheap.
+16660,1,Subdued performances,"All the performances on here are pretty subdued; it seems that Elvis never really cuts loose a la ""Burning Love"" or ""Promised Land"" which is disappointing. While the title track ""Raised on Rock"" is ok, it leaves you wishing they had pumped it up a notch or two. That song seemed like it was tailor made to be an Elvis rocker, but they didn't let the guitars and drums really go and as a consequence Elvis never really takes off on the song. That seems to be the case for the entire album. ""Three Corn Patches"" a country / blues song is the only song I found really interesting. Overall, I was expecting more from this album but was disappointed.Maybe ""Raised on Rock"" should be the next Elvis remix candidate. If they would pump-up the guitars and bass on that song, it might really rock."
+16661,1,"""Eeyeuuw""","I can hardly believe that Janet Evanovich wrote this book or contributed to it in any way. I have read all of her Plum books and laughed out loud, I felt this was very poorly written and draggy. Won't read another one of these."
+16662,2,My nieces and nephew love this!,"I got this for my sister's kids for Christmas and they love it. They are one hear old. It is fun to hear them make their own music. Very durable, also. I love Melissa and Doug products. It is made of wood and is painted in bright colors. It is a very cute, fun toy."
+16663,1,Horrible book,"The books by this publisher are just plain horrible They are simply advertisments from the business schools. There are few good business schools displayed in the book. It is not the least objective because schools only pay to to published in their. I called the president of the company and he confirmed this with me only the schools who pay them get published in it. You will not find good business schools like Indiana University at Bloomington, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill etc.. DO NOT BUY any books from analagous with this one ie: Best graduate business programs etc..."
+16664,1,Poor Quality,"Although the dealer took exceptionally good care of me, the product and it's replacement was lacking in quality. The stones kept falling out! I did receive a full refund and they couldn't have been nicer, I'd buy from them again if needed!!"
+16665,2,Great book,"This is a great book in the Joe Grey series. Joe, Dulcie and Kit find the clues that prove Chief Max Harper did not murder anyone. Great way to introduce the Garza family into the series. I just wish my cat would talk to me!"
+16666,2,Greatest Hymns By One of the Greatest voices,Some of the best hymns every written sung by one of the best baritone voices..........Wintley sings his Faith. This man sang at the memorial service of Mr. Chuck Colson..........another great Christian man. Wintley filled the National Cathedral with beauty I will never forget.
+16667,1,84 charlie mopic,"I really thought this was the worst movie i have ever seen. Almost as bad as the blair witch project. I thought the attention to detail was good, but i think the whole idea of the camera man , following the infantry around asking questions, making noise, i personally would have tried to kill the mopic, to save my plattoons lives. I dont understand how this movie got so many good reviews. Almost half of my history of the vietnam war class got up and left ten minutes into this movie. I think it had to do with the fact that just prior to watching this movie, we got to watch the CBS News footage of vietnam, the real thing. So this movie had a tough audience, so i still think it is worth watching. Also, the fact that they filmed it in california didn't help the jungle effect either."
+16668,2,Manifesto in Novel's Clothing,"Andrew the robot, an electro-mechanical Pinnochio, wants more than anything else to be a real man--but humanity isn't ready to admit a machine into its ranks. Built on an unstated but powerfully naturalistic and mechanistic ontology, this novel acts as a popular-level manifesto for recognizing the dignity of non-human artifical intelligence. Think of it as a preemptive strike in a battle yet to be fought, an opening salvo in the battle for machine rights.Although this book is well-written, Asimov's original novella accomplishes everything the book does in much less space. Expanding the story into a full-length novel added nothing to the pathos of Andrew's plight, or to the question of what it means to be human. If the novella has been read, the novel can be bypassed with no loss."
+16669,1,Cute animals,"This is a great collection if you like animals, allot of animals. What really bothers me is spending $60+ for a DVD collection, then being constantly told I am ""forbidden"" to fast forward, skip ahead, or view a menu."
+16670,2,Awesome!,If you are looking for a Bible where the commentary has a bent toward Spiritual Disciplines...this is the one to have...hands down.
+16671,2,Weird but great,"This book looks more like a comic book, which took me aback at first. But it's loaded with all the stuff you need to know in an easy to read format. Nothing lightweight about it."
+16672,2,A very funny look at the trials of first grade,"The title of this book put me off a bit but my first grader absolutely loved it. After I picked it up, I could see why. It is a terrifically funny, endearing look at the first day of first grade. A surefire winner among kids in the 5-6 age range."
+16673,1,"Okay John, what happened to the good stuff???","I rarely delve into the ""pop culture"" book list, and ""The Street Lawyer"" is a good example of why. Grisham's early books were good. They kept me interested. But Johnny boy is just not keeping up with his reputation these days. You are told the entire story one-third into the book. And the rest just seems to come off as dribble -- a filler of sorts. Something told me to check this one out at the library instead of paying for it. And I am proud to say I did just that."
+16674,2,almost perfect,"This movie is almost perfect in every way...in the pacing, the acting, the writing, the editing, the music, the cinematography. One of the best films of 2011 by a landslide."
+16675,2,Yellow Beard:A funny movie but not for everone.,An adult oriented movie that is aimed at the Cheech and Chong type crowd. The plot is not very important but the gags are aimed at many levels of awareness. Some partial nudity and jokes that use a 70'S and 80'S reference's leave questions about suitability for children. Young adults may not understand or like the implied inferences in the jokes. All in all an entertaining time waster for an older generation baby boomer.
+16676,2,The Longest Day,"A wonderful classic, war movie. They don't make movies like this anymore nor do they have great actors like those in this movie. This is why I buy the older movies. Most remakes are horrid and the actors are worse."
+16677,2,A sequel that is infinitely better than the original!,"I liked the original Crank. As far as action movies go it was ok...but Crank 2?...Crank 2 is an insane thrill ride filled with absolutely ridiculous things that would never work in real life but are absolutely HILARIOUS!! Who needs it to be realistic? Its funny, gory at times, full of adrenaline constantly and the best part...it's Jason Statham!! Swoon... lol. :) Watch it...you know you want to.."
+16678,1,Didnt work!,We bought these for 6 of our doors. We had the locks on the doors for only 15 minutes till our 2 year old...he had JUST turned two...was able to open the doors even with the locks on them. lol. Buy at your own risk...just hold onto the packages.
+16679,1,Switch failed after 4 months of minimal use,"I use this as a power strip for a server rack. I turn my devices on/off with it, most of which are always off or on so the use is minimal. One of the switches already failed and will not turn off. I have had the item for 4 months in a stationary setup in my office."
+16680,2,A vision,"In the not-very-distant future, America is disintegrating into widespread unemployment, crime, and violence. Lauren lives in an enclosed neighborhood where everyone looks out for each other, but racial divides are still factors. As a young black woman and an empath, Lauren knows her future is dim, but she has a vision of the future she calls Earthseed and is determined to make it a reality. When the trickle of thieves into their community flares into an invasion, Lauren witnesses the destruction of her world, her friends, her family, and barely escapes with her life. She encounters two other survivors and they set off to find a better part of the U.S. Butler's powerful vision of the future is starkly possible, and with compelling characters, she creates a stellar tale of believing in a better world for future generations even as we are mired in our current crises. The book is a powerful commentary on our culture and where it could be headed."

+16683,2,the finale gives me goosebumps,I read that finale over and over. The apparatchiki put down their briefcases and build barricades. I was there at EDSA in Manila when the kids and the nuns stopped the tanks with flowers and rosaries. Yet only when I read the MCS description do I get the full impact of People Power as a transformation and triumph of the human spirit.
+16684,1,works ok until....,works ok until you do a large load of beans at which time it appears to burn out. I suppose that if you do a pot at a time it may work for you but it is supposed to grind larger loads then that.
+16685,2,A winner,"This is the best of all the sleep/leisure bras I have bought, and I have bought about 7. No need for adjustable straps, it doesn't ride up in the back like others do, and a bottom band prevents upward slide like bandeau styles."
+16686,1,remote not working,did not work will not program to truck.if u can help let me know what to do ? thank you
+16687,1,Not worth the money,"I found this book to be a total yawn. It's a sewing book, and it's very outdated. Within a few months of buying it, I gave it away. I went on to make my own hats using adapted vintage patterns. Don't waste your time, find more modern means! Like Juliet Bawden's Hat Book"
+16688,1,Not very useful,Not very useful if you want to study for maths level 1/2.only useful for part time end moment practice but not worth its money.
+16689,2,Very detailed and informative,A friend had let me borrow this book while I was going thru breast cancer. I found it very helpful and easy to understand. There are charts that help you compare your test results to Dr information.
+16690,2,Great,Just a Book that touches the bottom of your heart well said by an extremly talented young man. A definite must read
+16691,1,Good while it lasted,"I was so excited when I received my first Cuisinart DBM-8 Supreme Automatic Burr Mill grinder in the mail. It worked for about 2 months and then just stopped working out of the blue. We got in touch with Cuisinart and they sent us a replacement. However, the second one only lasted for about 1 month and we would really only use it once a day. I have given up on getting yet another replacement and instead bought one of the Breville grinders. Hopefully we will have better luck with this one!"
+16692,1,Waste of time and money,"The name was spelled wrong on the DVD ""Avenge Sevenfold"". Sound and picture quality sucked. Music that accompanied sucked. Didn't play any Avenged Sevenfold music or interview the band and the people they did interview, they didn't say who they were. Do not spend your money on this dvd! Buy the ""All Axcess"" dvd instead."
+16693,2,Great Bedtime Storybook,The little llama is so cute and reminds me of my daughter when we tried to get her to bed each night about a year ago. Always some type of drama!! I highly recommend this book for your little ones.
+16694,2,"In Keeping W/the Trend, Really Good Reading!","I thought this book was very well written. The ""Invisible Life"" series has developed Raymond into a great character! This book continues to show Raymond's growth as he continually deals with his sexuality and professional goals. This book had a very emotional ending - something I didn't quiet expect."
+16695,1,NnyCW for Capcom City,"Resident Evil Survivor, the black sheep of the Resident Evil family. Compared to the rest of the Resident Evil's, yes, this game is bad. However, it is not unplayable. The lack of any and all save points means that you're going to have to go thru the entire game in one sitting...and that can be quite a challenge. However, considering how easy the game is, it's not because of difficulty. This game just is bad. Now, if you have a bunch of friends over who love Resident Evil like you do and you just want to be able to say you beat them all, this game does have some redeeming value. It's great for a laugh with a group of friends at just how bad it is. This game is more of a collectors item for those who want to have the entire Resident Evil series and who want to beat them all rather than for those who want a fun and enjoyable game to play. Stay away unless you're Resident Evil thru and thru. NnyCW for CapCity."

+16697,1,Kindle edition has DOZENS of typos,"I am a fan of Alan H and had never read the Folding Star. This particular Kindle edition, however, is riddled with typos... Dozens of them. It's annoying, distracting and definitely detracts from the experience. It looks to me like they scanned a printed edition and then didn't correct the mistakes. Would not have bought this if I had know about the condition which runs throughout the book. Shoddy-the writing deserves better!"
+16698,1,Not worth it,"Pretty cr@ppy product. lasts for a time or two, maybe. doesn't really ""wiggle"" much or shoot too far. not worth the hassle."
+16699,2,A Delightful Slice Of Heaven,Another delightful slice of Buffett's calypso style is very ear catching to me. The Calypso beats of Volcano and Boat Drinks are indeed pleasant. Is there any lyricist today that can match Jimmy's ability to create a scene? I doubt it.
+16700,2,Great History,"I am a big fan of Ms. Blake's but this was not one of her better books. It dragged a lot at times but the history involved in the story more than made up for it. If you're a fan of people and their cultures, you might want to give this book a try."
+16701,1,Are you kidding?,"This movie is a testimony to the fact that sometimes a film is made solely because someone is infatuated with a particular face; in this case Helen Mirren's. The person infatuted was, apparently, the writer, Allan Cubitt. This film is little more than a camera slavishly following Mirren around with a lot of close-up's.In this film Mirren is an ex-rock star who ""plunges"" into the crime underworld to track down the killers of her benefactor. How are we supposed to believe this story line when at a crucial juncture Mirren's character almost misses a critical appointment due to oversleeping a one-night stand with a musician friend she runs into one evening.Long, tedious, stupid."
+16702,2,Joseph Smith Bible Translation,"As a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints I will try to be as objective as I can. To begin with when I got my copy I found it to be defective, as some pages were missing (Proverbs) evidently when published. The book gives the exact Bible text (King James version). Also,in a side-by-side column is the Joseph Smith translation. As many people may not know, many of the exact words of the Bible were lost or changed down thru the ages from the many language tranlations. The Joseph Smith makes those missing parts clearer. Alot of the changes are simply punctuation, but there are many other more important changes as well. We have nothing to hide--the truth is the truth, as is the Book of Mormon, which through the Gift of the Holy Spirit was only translated once. The Book of Mormon is actually a history of the ancient inhabitants of the Americas--mainly the American Indians."
+16703,1,No Buttons - Big Hassle,I can't believe Bose has replaced a very nice system with one that you must control with a tiny remote. I have both their older models and I can't stand this new design.
+16704,1,Pass on this one,Product writes very well - just does not write for long. The amount of ink in the barrel of the pen is a lot less than it looks - 3 of the pens used so far (in 3 hours of use over a 2 week period) ran completely out of ink. For the price I am very disappointed in the product. I recommend you try another brand.
+16705,2,Entertaining and Stylish,"This is a delightful period mystery and loaded with charm. If your looking for a well-conceived little mystery that delivers a lively and amusing tale I highly recommend ""The Hanover Square Affair""."
+16706,1,Plush Doll whoopie,"$22.00 for this, well plush doll. Thats all it is. It doesn't talk or play music or tell time. But, it from disney! Wow. Not worth the money."
+16707,2,An American Classic,"This is a touching classic American memoir. Baker writes his like story, warts and all. It's an honest look at coming of age in Depression/WW 2 era America."
+16708,1,Repulsive,"Hyped because of star power, lacking anything related to class or humor, a poor way to spend your time, it trumpets contempt for you if you have values because you have them."
+16709,1,Hell's Angle 69,"Pretty lame. I am supprised that the Hell's Angles let this thing go to press. It's not even a ""want-a-be"" be biker flick. A more fitting title would be ""Little Bikers (house) on the Prairie"""
+16710,1,Great idea- terribly made,Great idea and the castle is great- but the dolls are horrible. Arms and hair fall off every two minutes. Wish they would replace them with working dolls. Not worth the money since my daughter will only use winx dolls with the castle and they keep falling apart.
+16711,2,The little book on houses you've always wanted.,"What a sweet, sweet addition to our astrological libraries! Stephanie Camilleri has achieved a deceptively simple guide to the houses and an elegant dynamic picture of the flow of relationships with dispositors. It is the rare astrology book that you find yourself reading through from start to finish; both beginners and masters will find what they want here! Bravo, Stephanie!"
+16712,2,It worked for me.,"This product has worked for me on XP SP2 without problems.It connects to my Motorola phone to transfer ringtones, addresses.

+16713,1,Lousy microwave,"We bought this microwave at Bestbuy after doing some research into what's a dependable model. We paid $165 on June 30. Today is Aug 12, and the microwave broke already! We don't abuse our appliances and are basically gentle users. Today I tried to heat up some frozen bread for 10 sec, and it goes on for 1 sec and turns off by itself. The turntable no longer turns. I tried all the other features, and the same thing happens - it turns on for a sec or 2, and then lights out. What a piece of junk! How can they sell an appliance that lasts less than 6 weeks??????????"
+16714,2,LOVE THIS FREAKING BOOK!!,"As far as Captain America stories go this is one of the better ones i've read in years. ""Truth"" spins some realistic tones about the treatment of colored soldiers during world war 2 into the captain america mythos. Just the book addressing the fact that in those days the government injecting a white/blonde/blue eyed man with an experimental drug that was not tested on humans,would have been ridiculous. Then showing the many failed black super soldiers that died or were horribly disfigured due to the testing of earlier prototypes of the serum was shocking. Steve Rogers reaction after unearthing this hidden and horrible information that preceded in him becoming Captain America and his actions after the fact, shows why he's one of the most enduring and respected characters in the Marvel U. This book is hard to find cheap, but well worth it."
+16715,2,GREAT SCIENCE FICTION,"I purchased this book because I have enjoyed the Sci-Fi novels of David Drake in the past...especially the ""Hammer's Slammers"" series of novels...While this book was edited by, instead of written by Mr. Drake, I enjoyed them all the same, and in particular enjoyed his comments at the end of each story. I recommend it.."

+16717,1,A TRAVESTY,"This film makes one who cares anything for our veterans and history ill. Emphasis was not placed on the attack, but on ridiculous romantic relationships. Who wants to see a movie with Ben A. anyway?"
+16718,1,"Sick, twisted, disturbing, and cr@p!!!!!!!","This video is despicable and perverse!!! How can anyone make a video like this?!! Whoever made this sick flick should get mental help. It was stupid for me to even rent the morbid thing. It haunted me for days after I watched it. Don't buy it or rent it!!! It's cheesy, beyond morbid, and too sick to be enjoyable. Watch Friday the 13th, The Exorcist, Hellraiser, but please avoid this..."
+16719,2,An Excellent Christmas Surprise,"This is a 2 CD set, which was a nice surprise. Narada artists are the best, and they have selected a wonderful variety of songs from them. There are the traditional Christmas songs done in a non-traditional way, and some new tunes, also. Even if you have spent too much time in stores and think you will explode if you hear another Christmas song, you will enjoy these. I have Narada: The Christmas Collection, which is also a great CD. But hey, you get 2 in this set. What a great deal!"
+16720,1,Cliche and Unimaginative,"I picked this one up from the library after having seen that Amazon recommended it as one of the best new thrillers. I was so disappointed. The characters are all one-dimensional and flat. And their names are bizarre... Smoky Barrett? Callie Thorne? (the name of an actress from the TV show Homicide, btw) The way they talk and the way the narrative reads is all extremely irritating and juvenile. And yes, the author throws in dime-store explanations for any typical detective work, i.e., the computer crimes detective having to explain the world of online porn, how IP tracking works, etc. It was distracting and condescending. The author couldn't decide if he was writing CSI for dummies, a pop psychology book for women who've experienced trauma, or a tongue-in-cheek satirical tribute to serial killer books. All three did not work. I'm sorry I wasted my time and sorrier still that Amazon recommended this title."
+16721,2,Great set,This set is. Great the crimpers are awesome the punch down tool isn't amazing but it works. Great set for the price.

+16723,2,Two out of three ain't bad,"A.D. Police files 1-3 (1990): 8/10: Despite a third episode that is almost a scene remake of Robocop this is one of the sharpest anime's around. Sexist and racist in that unconscious Japanese way with over the top violence and just a dash of nudity A.D. Police doesn't fail to entertain. The first two tales are gripping and inventive if a little hard to follow (Character development is minimalist at best) with great moral arks about the downfall of artifical people. The third episode is a letdown and quite skippable. Tons of action keeps AD Police moving even when the story seems to stall.13 up: violence, grotesque imagery, alochol and tobacco use"

+16725,2,Brazen French Schoolgirl's Misadventures At Catholic School,"This semi-autobiographical book starred an absolutely adorable fearless adolescent girl who thinks herself very sophistocated & worldy in all matters. Colette's perceptions about adults from a child's perspective are frank, canny and hilarious. The first and best of the Claudine novels, though all of them are quite good."

This compilation includes ""Light ofthe Stable"", a beautiful hymn praising the birth of the Savior, by the lightof a stable so many years ago. While appearing on Opryland's Country Christmas tvspecial, Emmylou describes this selection as one of the ""classics"" regarding Chrismas songs, comparing it to ""Little Drummer Boy"" and ""Silent Night"", also found on this collection. No matter what time of year it is, treat yourself to a Christmas gift right now. Buy this album, then lose yourself in pleasure! Jean A., CA"
+16728,2,My Favorite Thing!,"I cant say enough about how much I Love this product. I travel, and dont know how I have lived without it for so long. I have been watching the preview video for over a year now, but could not afford it. I got a card from the company I work for for being with them for 15 years, and knew imediately what I wanted!! I can carry a whole library with me now in this sleek little reading device. I have showed it to many people, and told others in the company. They all will probably be getting one for Christmas if they are quick enough, and they dont sell out. It is very easy to use, and soo much you can do with it. I LOVE KINDLE!!!"
+16729,2,10 years GO GET IT!!,"I saw 10 years in concert a couple times and I was so impressed with there music that I picked up the cd after the first show. The guys are totally cool to staying after their set to meet with each fan. My favorite track if I had to pick one is track 03 ""The Recipe"".But the whole cd is awesome and anyone who likes rock music is guaranteed to like this cod ""The Autumn Effect"". So go get it it'll make the best Christmas stocking stuffer!"
+16730,1,TWO TRUE GEMS,this album has two true gems: track 2 and track 6. The bass line in track 6 is a real masterpiece.Trouble is that i don't like the rest.

+16732,1,Where's Abbott&Costello???,"I know I was just a little kid when I used to watch these guys, but what's up with all the ""singing & music"" I mean, Abbott & Costello crack me up, but you don't see much of them on this entire DVD if you ask me. It's as if ""THEY"" were the guest stars. If you love this sort of stuff, you'll love this DVD. I would recommend ""The Best Of Abbott & Costello Vol. 3"
+16733,2,Simply the Best.,"This Mp3 player is Simply the best on the market today! It is tiny (smaller than the pictures suggest) and the screen is much larger than an iPod's. The graphic design is splended too! The menu is a true work of art as is the sound quality.I say save the $50 and buy this instead of an iPod, you won't be dissapointed!!!"

+16735,2,Kitchen Timer,"Handy and easy to operate. Big readout so it can be read across the room. Magnetic back allows it to be placed on the refer door.Buy two or three of these, they are really great for all sorts of timing jobs!!!After using this for months, I wish I had ordered a second one.We fight over who uses this timer because the one on the stove is so hard to set. Handy for the grill, cause you can take it outside too."
+16736,2,"Wrong item sent, but okay item","I ordered the Susi Deluxe, but was sent the Susi 2 instead. The Susi 2 does not have the cleaning accessory that I really wanted, so I was disappointed. The Susi 2 is okay, an above-average garlic press, but not spectacular."
+16737,1,"David Lynch, grow up!","Loved Blue Velvet, hated Lost Highway. What a disappointment. It had a great cast which was largely wasted on David Lynch's personal apprehensions and fetishes. Like Scorsese and Kubrick, Lynch is a painterly director, and has always had great visual and aural sensibilities. But here he is indulging in some sort of dopey Betty Page noir fantasy, where women, in the 90s, wear high heels with their bathrobes, and basically have no personality. The dialogue was awful. I knew it was bad when I was more interested in the color of nail polish Patricia Arquette was wearing than in what she was saying. David Lynch has taken German expressionist angst, kept the anger part for its sensationalist value, and lowered the whole gestalt of German expressionism to suit his own more shallow, banal vision. He has a tiresome need to indulge in some part of his adolescence, from which he, apparently, can not get unstuck."
+16738,1,Do you like SCOOBY DOO?,"These cartoons are typical of late-1970s Hanna-Barbera TV output: cheap, poorly-animated, and horribly hampered by ridiculous network standards and practices. They stink."
+16739,2,Better than crayons and MUCH more durable,"Purchased these as an alternative to my kids breaking crayons all the time. Went on other reviewers who gave glowing reviews of them. They're pretty much right - these are great. Made of real wood and the pencils are a combination btwn crayons and pencils. Don't break, rarely break a tip. I liked these so much I actually purchased them for my daughters best friend as part of her birthday gift. Will buy again... just wish there were more colors."
+16740,2,Loved it!!,"I really enjoyed the way that Wayne Darling writes as soon as I was finished reading it, I immediately looked for more books by the author. It was very informative and I have read so many books on crystals. This book was A+ Loved it!!"
+16741,1,Makes my hair feel like straw,"I've only bought this in stores, not on amazon & I don't care for it at all. I prefer the straightening gel which of course is nowhere to be found in stores now."
+16742,1,Not worth Buying,This style is for broadway. The songs are blend!.. He will not last making those type of songs!
+16743,1,Does not work,"Received the item, no problem.Plugged in SD card into device, no problem.Plugged into computer, expecting to see it pop up- no connection.This product doesn't work.3$ or not, I expect a product to work."
+16744,2,The Perfect Cup of Joe,This is the perfect coffee machine as only one person drinks coffee in this household. We have a larger Braun 10-cup maker but couldn't get it to make an ideal brew for just one or two cups. Just ended up making six cups and tossing the left-overs. This machine was exactly what I was looking for and works exactly as I expect it to. Brews in just four minutes and keeps the java nice and hot (not boiling). This is a must have for single coffee drinkers.
+16745,1,Too light weight,"The four pound weight is too light. When the weight is lowered below 20 feet and you troll at 2 knots, the weight does not go straight down but at a 20 to 30 degree angle. You will not know how deep you really are. I am replacing it with an 8 pound weight."
+16746,1,Ripped Off,The product was very heavy and cumbersome for hanging from the thin thread supplied in the package. also two people were needed to put it together in an effort to avoid the thread tangling once the balls are attached.Definitely not worth the money!!!
+16747,1,better off using library,Rationals not that great or non-existant. You are better off using inter-library loan on your local library system for multuple books.
+16748,2,great author,Kathryn Harrison has been a favorite author of mine for years and Amazon allows me to search and find books you do not find in the bookstores.
+16749,2,Awesome !!!!!!!!!!!!!,"This CD brings me up when I'm feeling bummed and smooths me out when I'm getting anxious. Again, not a bad track on the whole thing. It ROCKS, it's truth, it's Avril. She tells you who she is cause she knows it. Good for her, some of us never know.You could say that this will be hard to top. I say she's not doing this to compete with herself or anyone else.Other people are just too picky and have nothing better to do than crab about something. I say, go back to the trailer park you came from and shut-up !This music is NOT just for teens, it's for everybody, because it is everybody. Truth."
+16750,2,Classic Power Rangers!,"All the other reincarnations of the Power Rangers (i.e. Power Rangers Zeo, Power Rangers in Space) cannot compare to the original show. And this video is just one in a series that proves it! This tape truly shows the Rangers in their best form. After all, isn't this the version of the show that made them so popular to begin with? All the original Rangers are here, with plenty of action and side humor to sustain any fan of the show for 25 minutes! It's not availible here, but if you find it anywhere else, and you like the show, buy it! Go, go, Power Rangers!"
+16751,2,like this game,"This is a great game for lord of the rings fans.It is fun to play, yet difficult to understand the rules and all at first.I would recomend that the buyer be 13 and up.If you were hopeing to get a balrog card, you wont find it here.After all it is a stater deck not the jackpot!"
+16752,1,Only because its bearable..,"Call me close-minded, I don't care.. Christian metal? come on now.. a musical style that was made on the most unholy ANTIchrist ideals and now christians think they can corrupt it? haha.. seriously though - this seems a pathetic attempt at breaking into mainstream metal to convert all us evil evil people. go back to knocking on doors for your brainwashing recruiting sessions. Consider this a warning for all you *real* metalheads - avoid the oncoming brainwashing from pityful imitation metal bands..Real metal lives on! Beware mediocre sh'ty immitations!"
+16753,1,Another disc of cut and paste samples,"Time to see the truth about this band, folks. Endless samples, cut and paste arrangements are about it. It's goth elevator music and good for that but not much else. After a good start total disapointment with this band has set in."
+16754,1,"Incorrect item shipped, and blow off from seller",As others have stated the needles were not shipped. When we tried to contact the seller therew as no response.
+16755,2,the landscapes alone are worth the watch,Gorgeous scenery and breathtaking heartland landscapes in H D along with a great cast and sound track...a super tramp adventure
+16756,2,refreshing,What a pleasure to read such grounded literature. The flavor of his characters have a nostalgic feel; as if you have known them in your past.
+16757,1,Did you just repackage Qwik?,"So I figured I'd try this stuff out after reading some reviews. The neutral wasn't available where I picked it up, so bought the brown. Now, I would say I have brown hair and facial hair. I would also say ""dark brown"" over ""light brown"", but apparently not.First time I put this on I really thought I was rubbing shoe polish on my face. I immediately washed it off. I tried again, and it really darkened my moustache...okay, so I gave it another try. I did like the hold it provided, but between the color - I know it can't be perfect, but comment on the neutral was that it stuck out on dark hair - and the scent...man, that doesn't seem like a manly scent to me, but more of...well...shoe polish.2 Starts because the hold wasn't bad."
+16758,2,Music For Your Soul - CD by david castle,The album so many of us have waited for! AWESOME! David surpasses himself and has reached a new level of connecting with the people through his music. Thank you david for your beautiful gift of artistry and Spirit combined!
+16759,2,You Must View this Film!,"I teach sixth graders. We spend time learning about the Holocaust from our WWII unit in our SS book, as well as, our novels. I have just added a film to these studies...""The Children of Chabonnes"". All I can say is WOW! It was more touching, informative, and upliftingthan I imagined. It was wonderful. I thought of a hundred ways to use this in school...ok, I may be exaggerating, but it is goingto be a great asset to our curriculum. I cried at a few beautiful statements which I don't do easily. The members of this crew are to be congratulated for a job well done! Guess I better have tissues ready in my classroom. The music was perfect...and the camera shots, dialogue, and updates on the ""children"" added a valuable, insightful component to this award-winning testimonial!"
+16760,2,"Soul, Funk, Jazz, Acid Rock: It's All Right Here","This collection actually lives up to the title Masterpiece. The first cut, a hard to find 20+ minute version of ""Get Ready,"" shows off the band's musical finesse with looping rhythms, outstanding percussion, and guitar work that slides into your sub-conscious and lodges there. The remainder of the album reflects both the changing musical climate of the band's heydey (early 1970s) as well as the political mood and the psychedelic experimentation of the times.If you buy one recording this year make it this one!"
+16761,2,A very good movie.,Stockard Channing and Natalie Portman deliver a very good show. Walmart never looked so favorable as now. Watch and see.
+16762,1,Dissapointing,For some reason I expected more from this movie. It's difficult to explain my dissatisfaction without giving away much of the plot. I suggest waiting until it is on free TV.
+16763,1,Broke after three uses,"I bought it from amazon.com and my husband just used it 3 times in 3 month and now it is broke. It does not work anymore--broke! I wish I bought it at a local store so at least I can exchange one after 3 month of purchasing. With amazon, you only have 30 days to try and return. Basicly it is not enough time for trying electronic products."
+16764,2,Microsoft Office Home & Student 2007,"I couldn't understand why the microsoft program would not give me access, but I realized my trial period had ended. So after learning this is what is needed for the program to work, I ordered it and I'm not computer savvy and I was able to follow the instructions with no problems."
+16765,2,"so far, so good","Decent price - much better than anything local. Arrived as indicated.Batteries in several phones would no longer hold a charge. Replaced with the energizer battery. Phone works again as expected.Have not done testing to compare talk and standby times, but seem to be reasonable.Also cannot speak extensively to longevity, but after several weeks the battery seems to still be performing as expected."
+16766,1,buy separately!,its cheaper to buy them individually. they total to $48.97 w/free shipping.on another note. this show is amazing! i love it. can't wait for the season finale tonight! :)
+16767,1,Poor layout,"I was assigned this text for my biostatistics class. Unfortunately, it is a poorly designed textbook, as everything is 'backwards'. Rosner gives examples before he introduces the material; he derives formulas before giving the real equation to use.The only good thing about the text are the summaries included on the CD-rom. I have decided to read these instead of the actual text, because they are straightforward and leave out extraneous material."
+16768,1,BORING BORING BORING!!!,"This film is the dullest one I've seen in many a moon. This old goat simply recites early Biblical stories, while an atonal pipe plays in the background, babies cry, and sheep bleat. Nowhere near as good (great even) as some of the other Bible series films like Joseph, David, Moses, Solomon, Jeremiah, etc. Save your money."
+16769,1,Chewey Coconut Tires,"Okay, I love coconut but these bars are far too sticky and chewey. If they had more of a granola bar texture and consistency they might be good, but there's definitely rubber cement holding these babies together."
+16770,2,Good book -- depressing as hell!,"Tanith Lee's obsession with the French Revolution has given us one of those most lucid novels since Tale of Two Cities, and as Lee's book concerns the participants, I would dare say that it is the better of the two.The novel begins shortly before the French Revolution. The nobles have the power, the poor and starving and there's plenty of freefloating oppression to go around. Through the eyes of the narrator we see the revolution take form and topple an entrenched monarchy and even though we know what is going to come next, Lee's prose makes these scenes exhilarating.As the book shifts into the days of the Terror, the exhilaration turns to repulsion as the calls for mass execution are heeded and Robespierre seemlessly transforms himself from an idealistic senator into a mass executioner, all for the sake of the revoultion."
+16771,1,A heartfelt paean to a great American demagogue.,"REDHUNTER reads as if it were written with an axe on the spinning wheel of a grindstone. The saddest thing, though, is that most of today's readers are likely to agree with Buckley that there is a place in America for persecution of an individual solely on the basis of his or her political beliefs, if those beliefs differ from those of the majority. This, of course, was how the Nazis began. It could just as easily happen here, too, and nearly did. I would give this book 0 stars if that option were afforded me. In every respect, an appalling performance."
+16772,2,Nascar Thunder 2003,"This is a real nice effort from EA. I am writing about the PC version. The main plus for this sim is the AI it seems to be adjusting itself all thru the race, I was in front and still right to the line cars attempted to overtake me. I think this is a real great sim which keeps you stuck to the task right to the finish line. The gameplay is great. The graphics are very nice indeed,I was a dedicated Papyrus Nascar player but now, I feel EA has taken the Nascar crown."
+16773,1,It broke,"I bought a pair of these that was re-branded as Altec Lansing.After two months of use, one of the cable connectors pulled out at the base of the earpiece. (The cable is designed to detach, but not at the point where it did.) The tiny wires were severed, and vanished into the inside of the earpiece. It's damaged beyond repair.But I was not very satisfied with it anyway. I wear glasses. I had to adjust the over-the-ear stiff wire perfectly to keep it from scraping on the glasses and making a loud noise. Furthermore, the earphones are relatively heavy, and they stick out of the ear quite far. I never did get a good fit with them, after much experimentation.I replaced the earphones with a pair of Zen Aurvana's, just because they were available down in a store down the street from me. I much prefer them. They are much smaller, lighter, and more comfortable. They fit better. I think I could probably fall asleep resting on one of my ears with them on. But I haven't tried it. :-)"
+16774,1,Sixguns by Keith is the one book on handguns you should own,"Sixguns by KeithThis book is an American classic.If you want a book which tells you all about handguns,this is the book to buy. It is the seminal book abouthunting with a handgun. It also contains sectons aboutselection of a handgun, handloading, trick shooting,long range shooting and the use of handguns as a defensiveweapon.This book is a classic. Some might call it dated, as itwas written before world war two, and updated by the authorin the post world war two era after he gained experiencewith the .44 magnum in the field. It is the most completebook available on handgun hunting and handguns in general.What it does not contain. This book does not cover recentdevelopments in combat handgunnery or silouette shooting.Nonetheless, it is the best book available on the generalsubject of handguns and the use of handguns.If you are only going to buy one book on this subject,this is the book to buy."
+16775,1,Keeps pulling and wasting the bags,"Ugh! I do not know what's happening with this thing. I've had it for about a year, but the last two replacements were wasted when the wheel pulled out too much and it wound around it. I would pull it open to find a loooooong empty blue bag and at the end wound around the wheel and a little bit of litter at the very end. It's just a pain in the butt to shake the litter to the actual end, and then cut off a large amount of the bag (therefore wasting it and having to replace it earlier).I had hoped that cutting it and resetting the ""new end"" would fix the problem, but no. It just keeps pulling too much of the bag and wasting it. Yes, it keeps the smell from permeating the room, but it still is wasting the bag and my money. I'm tempted to throw the whole thing out and forget it."
+16776,2,An excellent source of ideas for further research,"Dean Radin's book when combined with Richard Broughton's ""Parapsychology: The Controversial Science"" is an excellent choice for use in an Introduction to Parapsychology course. Broughton provides a more comprehensive history but Radin provides some rather exciting new concepts that are testable in an experimental/laboratory setting. This is one of the best books on scientific psychical research written in the last 20 years."
+16777,2,They're GRRRREAT!,"These noodles are almost a carbon copy of a snack that we ate while on holiday in Hawaii. They make a chicken stock with chunks of chicken, carrot, peas, ect.. I was very happy to have found these. Try them if you can."
+16778,1,Poor quality,"While this watch appeared to be a lovely watch. Within a few months of purchase, the stem locked in place and cannot be used to adjust the watch. Yes, there is a warranty. The watch, however, cost $60 on Amazon, and the warranty fee is $29 to return it to Invicta ( which happens to be located about 3 miles from my home, but they do not allow you to drop off defective items). It does not seem worthwhile to spend 50% of the cost of the watch on a repair within the first four months after purchase. Very disapointing!"
+16779,2,Enchanted April the ultimate cure for Winter Blahs,"Every year, as the winter starts to take its cruel toll and the SEASONAL Effective Disorder really sets in, I rent a copy of Enchanted April, invite my best friends over, (especially the gardeners), and have a good (drunken) party watching everyone in Enchanted April blossom out into a newer, freer spring in the most spectacularly floral setting. The only thing that comes anywhere close to it for 'feel good' rating is Room With a View, and perhaps Antonia's Line, which also makes me want to throw off my shackles and go Bohemian and barefoot through fields of lavender. I want it on DVD so that I can zero in on the fine details of it. Also, the VHS at the local rental wore out. I'd buy it instantly, but they are currently only available in VHS and this is too temporary a copy to satisfy my need for a SAD cure."
+16780,1,didn't work,"Probably the lemon of the batch - I have a Turbo Chi that works fine that I've had for 2 years but needed a back-up. At this low price, decided to try a Chi that doesn't have a temp control. This one worked fine the first day but the second day it wouldn't turn on."
+16781,1,Another great expansion pack to a wonderful game.,Where will it end? I can't say whether or not everysim requires these new features but certainly no house party should be without them. Just be sure to experience the real thing before sim'ing it.
+16782,2,Great vac for the price!,Hope this hoover last as long as my last hoover. I put about 2 hours a week on it and it lasted 12 years before the motor burned up. Kevin of North Carolina.
+16783,1,It's not worth it!,"I bought this book. If you are looking for information to help you take care of YOUR hair, this book will NOT provide it. This VERY short book is really the story of her personal journey. If you don't have the same texture of hair (or can't get the texturizer upon which the few ""styles"" that she talks about are based) then this book is decidedly unhelpful."
+16784,2,Good Speakers For The Price.,"I won't over hype these speakers as the greatest, but for what I paid for them they handle what I need. First lets talk about what is good. The price of this set will get any home theater going under 80 dollars, which is almost amazing. The sound is modestly good. The bad on the other hand can be over looked because of the price. The wire that does come with the speakers is so thin I wouldn't trust it as a pro for buying the speakers. These speakers offer virtually no bass response. I wouldn't recommend using them without a powered sub. When compared to higher priced speakers using the same equipment these speakers show there limitaions. The sound is almost harsh when compared to more expensive set of speakers. But you will probably only notice it if you hook up another set of speakers. For anyone who is building a home theater and it looking for a cheap way to get off the ground I can't imagine a better set of speakers for the price."
+16785,1,an orchestra ...on a metal album ?,"Excuse me , but aren't these the same cry babies who whined about losing their Grammy to a band that incoperates a flute in their act ? Nice job on For Whom The Bell Tolls, but man ..Metallica belongs in the Cry Baby Hall Of Fame not the rock and roll hall of fame"
+16786,2,Terrific starter for learning piano...,"I bought this thinking it would be clearly just a keyboard. I have a niece who claims to want to learn, and I did not want to make a big investment until I could see how committed she was to her interest. This keyboard offers tempo as well as actual sound keys. Its fun to use and a great starter learning tool. I will buy her a bigger keyboard as I can see she is really committed and talented. And I will use this to play around with my new grand niece."
+16787,1,Blu Ray Pauses and Freezes,"The movie speaks for itself but I had problems with the blu ray disc for the 1st movie. About 15 minutes into the movie it began pausing, skipping and then just froze up completely. I tried it on a friends blu ray player and the same problems occurred. I've requested a replacement and once I receive it, I will update this review.UPDATE : March 17, 2002 - I forgot to post an update but Amazon mailed me a new copy without any problems or questions. The new copy works perfectly so it must have been that I received a bad disc the first time."
+16788,1,A definite lack of wit and humor,"I am currently about half way through this book. It's been a struggle for me to get this far. I wish that I could just put it down, but I can't. Now that I've read half of it, I feel obligated to read the rest.I feel that the author is trying way too hard to be funny. And she's being ""obviously"" funny. Her metephors are too much. Her explanations go on too long. She's too predictable. In many instances, I have been reading and thought to myself, ""I bet she's going to say..."" And you know what? I was right.Maybe I'm being hard on the author and the book because I have been used to the witty and sarcastic writing of authors like Augusten Burroughs and David Sedaris. I guess I shouldn't compare apples to oranges. Laurie Notaro is her own kind of writer and some may find her obvious observations amusing. As for me, I'm not likely to purchase one of her books again."
+16789,2,Life Changing,"""Humility"" is a simple yet profound work that has had life changining consequences for me. It has given me a clearer perspective of who God is and how I need to relate to Him and others. Andrew Murray is clearly legitamate in his life and a credible source of leadership in an area where to many are afraid to go, to a place of dependence on God and service to our fellow men. Don't miss this opportunity to be transformed."
+16790,1,looks good unless you use it,"I bought the Sony because it seems better made than many of the other portable DVD players I looked at. I like the black case and the compact battery. However, despite its good looks, it does not work well.1. The sound is very poor. 2. Picture is very dark, lots of reflections and hard to get the screen at a good angle to see the movie well. I like to be able to SEE and HEAR my movies!!!"
+16791,1,It is no miracle - manage your expectations.,"Maybe I am disappointed because my expectations were too high. I really thought this was going to solve at least 90% of the pet hear issue if not all of it. I have short hair cat with medium to high shedding volume and she enjoys the brush and sure it gets chunks of hear out like the pictures show and like every one says. However, this does not reduce shedding all that much! It just makes her fur feel really thin but as I pet her after that, I see those hairs flying out all over again. I supposed it does REDUCE the shedding somewhat, maybe 20-30% at most for a few days after the use.. but that is about it. I was really expecting more from this thing because of all the raving reviews."

Is the next volume going to be about his sexual escapades?She is trying to keep up with her aging audience, but in doing so, she is losing the new one, and the world of wonder."
+16794,2,I found this book to be very diversified to the black race.,This novel was a very good passtime enjoyment. It helped me to picture different lifestyles within the black community. It also let me identify with some of my own needs and insights concerning different beliefs and attitudes in my race.
+16795,2,Good Waffle Iron for the Money,"Overall a good and easy waffle maker that has a simple cooking mechanism. The only problem is that the waffle batter always spills out and makes a real mess when cooking. This problem can be reduced by playing with batter recipe and learning how to use the device, but it is always a handful."
+16796,1,Not good.,"This is a 400+ page commercial. None of the concepts are really new, they're just common sense. Like some people, I bought the book based on the ratings, but the ratings are misleading. I'm fairly certain all of the 5 star ratings are fake."
+16797,2,Parents can have Romantic Lighting too!,"Now, even though we have an energetic little kid in the house, we can have soft glowing candles around!Yay! I can have my ambiance back!I even lit one the other night to fall asleep by.I bought them as gifts.I'm keeping them for myself.The little brights leave a nice glow and are safe and easy.Boots"
+16798,1,Any more than 2 stars and you are just an Amy worshiper.,She has a killer voice and backed up with the real world passion of her origional back was a match made in heaven. This new thrown together corporate money grabber depends on the briliance of Amy's voice to sell it. Just another example of hype for the masses. This album has no teeth. It makes great mall/elevator music though.
+16799,1,Boring....,I enjoyed Mr Sedaris on NPR once in a while. So I thought I would enjoy a full length audio book. But it was just more and more of the same shallow monotonic delivery of haphazard and hardly interesting stories. All related in the same almost lifeless oratory. Maybe if you grew up in the same island you'll find him compelling. Maybe not. I feel like I wasted my money. Used copy anyone?
+16800,1,Cutoff pages,"The scanning in this edition was not well centered and one or more lines were lost from the bottom of each page, including some obviously important sentences. If this problem was fixed, it would be a very valuable resource. As it is, it's worth having, but an aggravating read.This book, in its entirety, is available as a free E-book on Google."
+16801,1,"Boring, not realistic","First of all, any movie with Vin Diesel should tell you right off the bat that it's gonna be bad. And this movie is BAD. Spielberg was always a pretty overrated director. This movie isn't as bad as ""E.T.,"" but it's not realistic. The first 20 minutes look like a PlayStation movie. For a more accurate depiction of the horrors of war, check out the amazing ""Pearl Harbor"" with Ben Affleck."
+16802,1,"No, no and no.",Do the right thing George. Release the originals. Let the fans have a choice and decide. We'll be waiting. It will mean more money for you! We know you would love that!
+16803,2,My favorite bowls,I love everything about these bowls! The handles make it easy to keep your hands clean while mixing ingredients. They go in the dishwasher and come out looking great! The bowls have shown no signs of rusting or staining unlike other bowls I've used.
+16804,1,Chinese phone,"The keyboard, and the default language is chinese. After spending a long time, I was able to find out how to change the language to English. But still it would store ""names"" in the address book in Chinese language only. They should have warned the customers about this issue. Will try to return the phone !"
+16805,1,Rather disappointed,"I normally LOVE Zyliss products, so purchasing this cheese grater seemed like a no-brainer.Wrong.As others have noted, the handle is far too short to make the grater work as effectively as it could. And the handle-hold is plain ergonomically weird.The Mouli cheese grater (a French production) is hands down superior to this style. I had a contemporary, plastic version of it for YEARS before it gave out.This Zyliss grater also lacks 'grip' on the under side of the press, so the cheese slides forward and wedges in place in a way that leaves large pieces ungrated.Overall, would NOT buy this again, though I'll figure out how to make it more happy for me to use...hopefully."
+16806,1,"Beautiful pictures, terrible paper","The pictures on these tarot cards are truly beautiful. The paper they are printed on is a joke, an embarrassment. I wanted to actually ""use"" this deck, to shuffle and deal the cards. Unfortunately they have no substance and no finish and are impossible to consider using for an actual reading as they readily bend and crease. This is so sad as the pictures are magnificent and could be very inspirational in a reading."
+16807,1,"The most depressing book, ever!","I expected this book to be sad, but uplifting. This book was nothing but sad. I cried for the entire last half of the book and my husband thought that someone had really died! Overall, this is not an uplifting book, it is just depressing! Anyone who has a child will have a tough time getting through it emotionally in-tact. I am terribly sorry that I wasted my money on this book and will probably throw it away because I don't want it in my home or subject it to anyone else's eyes and heart! If you want an emotional but uplifting book, try any one of Nicholas Sparks' books...tearjerkers, but wonderful!"
+16808,2,Great for the price,I have this dinnerware including serving pieces and bakeware in my home. This is a wonderful line of dinnerware which for the low price simply can't be beat. One reviewer points out that there are black circular marks in the color glazing. This is the antiquing on the plate which is normal. Dinner pieces such as plates and bowls are dishwasher and microwave safe. Bakeware such as casseroles are oven safe.
+16809,2,Turtle Moon,I am a big fan of Alice Hoffman so anything she writes is fantastic by my standards. It was a slow beginning but it was a book that I couldn't put down as the story unfolds.
+16810,1,frustrated,"listening to this book on CD, i felt as if i were listening to someone who had to write a thesis on the author of Lolita. Sho had to substantiate every thought and fact about this man according to a class she took, and a professor was going to grade her on every fact and footnote. i didn't like it. Please don't come crashing down on me for my response to this book. everytime i thought something very personal was about to be revealed or flushed out, it was cut short. I feel ms. nafisi kept an implacable barrier up which she put in place to keep the novel impersonal, and that barrier was to make it an academid thesis on nabakov, and in a sophomoric way. fine, but that's not what the book was promoted to be, and not what i would have purchased."
+16811,1,Where was the editor?!,"If ever a book was in need of an editor, this one was it. I enjoyed the first five books, ""The Blending"" although they progressively were more stilted and difficult to follow. There is a great story and series in here fighting to get out! Even simple things like chapter headings that listed the location of the scene and a map of the ""world"" would have helped. I start to wonder if the pressure on the authors of these types of series to get the next one out fast is overwhelming and doesn't give them time to re-read their own work before they send it off. I was fantasizing about grabbing a pen and editing it myself and then sending it back to the publisher! What a disappointment."
+16812,1,DO NOT BUY THIS!,"I'm sorry....I was drunk. Don't know what I was dri...er, I mean THInking but...once again...I fudged it. You're all right...I SHOULD have got Roth back. Did you actually HEAR sammies lyrics....lol. Man I gotta quit with the boozin..lol."
+16813,2,Wireless Crash Course,"Wireless Crash Course is the book for those interested in learning about wireless communications without having to carry a wireless dictionary with you as you read. The author has taken what could be a very technically laden book, and broken it down to very comprehendible components. It is laid out logically to step the non-wireless engineer through all facets of wireless communications. A great book for engineers interested in learning about the wireless industry."
+16814,1,Core Humanities,"I had to read this for school. It was boring and totally uneventful. I would prefer sparknotes or audio version to get through it faster. If you have ot read for school, I feel your pain."
+16815,2,When's the dvd release?,"Loved this version the first time I saw it. The vhs quality is sadly lacking for such a great film. Please send word , this classic version really deserves to be seen on dvd!"
+16816,1,Electric Pencil Sharpener by Royal,"Sharpener works well for new pencils, but used pencils don't get very sharp. If pencil has not sharpened evenly, it comes out the same way when sharpened in this pencil sharpener. I was really disappointed in its performance."
+16817,1,"cheap, lowest quality","I realize this is a very inexpensive item so I didn't expect much, and I was still disappointed. I could barely open the umbrellas without them ripping, most of them gave me splinters and wouldn't stay open. I also purchased from oriental trading at the same time and theirs were much better quality."
+16818,2,Good home tool kit,"Great colors - not too girly. Love the level and L-tools. Lid breaks easily, but the tools are good quality."
+16819,2,wish I'd started using it 5 years ago,"I have two litter mates. One can eat anything with no problem. The other always vomits ten minutes after eating, no matter what she eats: canned or dried makes no difference and I've tried every store brand there is. Hairball treatments had no effect. I figured ""cats throw up"" and didn't worry about it. When I moved and switched vets the new vet asked if the cats ever threw up. When she heard about the one cat she said cats do NOT just throw up and told me to get the Science Diet sensitive stomach food. Yes, it's 4x the price of what I'd been buying, but I noticed a difference with the first bowl. Instead of throwing up ten minutes after literally every meal, now she throws up maybe once a month. If only I'd switched to this brand years ago we both would have been saved a lot of misery. Even tho it costs more I've noticed that the bag seems to last longer than the same amount of cat chow did."
+16820,1,Still a rip off,"Nothing against the music at all. It's a solid colleciton... but... it could be on one disc for around 10 bucks. Capitol will say (and has said) they want to preseve the integrity of the original two record set by having two discs, but, having released the #1 collection with 30 songs on one disc, this is nonsense. It's a money grab. Prepare to be gouged again Beatlemaniacs."
+16821,1,So Yesterday (..Pre-teens ONLY),"A little too 12-year-oldish for me. I usually love young adult books but the challenges and the story seemed meant for pre-teens. I was bored. The whole ""I don't believe in love"" plot is lame. The characters were dull and superficial. Lacked depth. I didn't finish it."
+16822,2,SuperFoods RX,Book is informative and gives great advice on the foods that are needed to change poor eating habits. The recipes and ideas are usable. I enjoyed reading this book.
+16823,2,Very Useful,This is a great cookbook. It follows the same format as Saving Dinner. There are dinners typically associated with holidays (all sorts of holidays) in this cookbook. The recipes do not call for any strange ingredients and they are easy and come out with great results. This is a great cookbook and I'm glad I ordered it.Enjoy.
+16824,1,Soap,"This book is about as close to a Soap Opera as you can getwithout video.The story is about twin brothers separated at birth and raisedby different families, and it follows their lives through aseries of coincidences that defies imagination. Even the authorreminds us that sometimes a rare coincidence does happen, buthe fails to convince us such a series of coincidences as heredescribed could actually happen.The story will appeal to a few, but there is no suspense, notension, no surprises, and one page reads like another. It isjust an on-going rather boring story, and people who actuallylived the lives fictionalized here couldn't possibly lead suchdull, predictable lives.There just isn't much here to engage any serious reader, andmost readers will want to avoid wasting their time with thisone."
+16825,2,Could not put it down,This is one of those books that you can't put down. Good from start to finish! If you like a good Mystery/Romance then this book is for you!
+16826,2,"ok product, good customer service","received the item fast, there was a little damage on the plastic and they shipped a new one out right away. installed fine and does just what the description says. not for outside, but good for inside or protected outside areas."
+16827,1,Worst Bring it on.....EVER! They need to stop!,"This is absolutely the worst one ever! The language they use in this film is total trash. I can't imagine I'd want my daughter to talk like them and be a cheerleader! Same old story line as the last two. They really need to stop making these Films the ""Bring it On"" movies need to stop!"
+16828,1,Can't Sort Or Learn when it's just stickers,"We bought this cart for our then 7 month old twins. The twins are now 10 months and have completely gotten the stickers off the different shapes, rendering the learning aspect of this toy useless.This toy is designed for 6 months plus, yet the company used cheep stickers for the numbers and pictures. I have not met a baby yet that doesn't put the shapes in their mouth at this age, which means the stickers have completely come off. I am also not thrilled the babies have ingested the stickers or glue from them.We have many other toys with the same concept, but they are not designed with stickers."
+16829,1,You've got to be kidding!!!!!!!!!!!!,This has to be the all time worst sci-fi flick since the mesozoic era. Poor acting. Poor directing. Poor scenery and effects...
+16830,1,disappointed,"The reviewer Maggie says it all for me. I feel the author did not really show that Jack loved Arabella. I felt let down that JF didn't make Jack stand up more for Arabella than his mistress.I don't think I'll be reading any more of JF books, she does this all the time with her H/H. It was just too much angst and not enough love."
+16831,2,Great gate!,"I own a small dog grooming shop and needed a gate for one of my doors. Bigger dogs can jump over so I just have to be careful who I let stay in the room. Only problem is the bar on the floor, people keep tripping over it. Be sure to put bright tape on it to stop accidents."
+16832,1,little value,"This article should not be listed for sale on Amazon.It is a short, fluffy piece - maybe worth a read if accessed for free, but DEFINITELY not worth $10. I'd be embarassed to have it listed if I was the author.....and this is not a personal attack - I just feel ripped-off!"
+16833,2,Enjoyable book,I am a country music fan and have seen the movie many times. I wanted to read the book and I'm glad I did. It was enjoyable.
+16834,1,a story like the slug,this story is nothing like the wind. this book could be good if he cut out more of the details and and wrote more about what is actually happening he has to detail it so much teach chapter could be 12-16 pages long.
+16835,1,Another load of hogwash from a proven dissembler,"Brock is right...his behavior in the past was sleazy...and continues to be. This man clearly has no spine, a jellyfish in the tide of life who will change his entire persona on a whim. He has absolutely NOTHING interesting to say in this text (that is, anything that he most likely did not invent)."
+16836,1,This book doesn't muster up,"There was nothing telling me that this book was about Small Freshwater Creatures in Northern Europe. While it has lots of illustrations (over 800) some are useful, many not...here in NY State. There is no Table of Contents. The ""creatures"" are listed haphazardly, and there is no easy way to ""thumb"" thru looking for any one creature. The index is almost entirely in latin, so its totally useless for the lay person. Don't waste your money like I did unless you are interested in European critters and know the species and genus in latin..."
+16837,2,HPI Servo Gear Set - SF-2,"HPI Servo Gear Set - SF-2,I bought this product to control my toy because it had the previous sweep, excellent product"
+16838,2,Taking Film on The Cruise/Airlines,"Very handy. Most places CLAIM the xray machines will not damage your film. That may be true if is only done once and not highspeed film. I kept the film pack in hand while going through check points and ask for hand inspection, a couple of times when they were busy I was denied a hand inspection and ran film packet through exray."
+16839,2,Deadwood,"As real and gritty as it was in the Black Hills after Custers last stand. Wild, free, deadly, dangerous, exiting,no law, raw justice, no rules. Based on true accounts of the early days of the gold rush in the midst of the Sioux uprising. Some brave dudes those people of Deadwood."
+16840,2,I just love it,"Over the years of my cooking, I have tried several brands of kitchen utensils, and I just love these. The grips are so much easier to hold on to, and your hands won't slip on the handles either. I also own several of the more expensive non stick pots and pans, and when using these utensils, there hasn't been even so much as a scratch. They are also very sturdy when lifting something that's on the heavy side. Thumbs up on these!!"
+16841,1,Last book of the series I will try,"After my disappointment with Incubus Dreams I said I would give the series one more try. I did. I'm sorry to say that Anita as I knew and loved her is dead, and it is time to put the wooden stake in the shambling undead creature that has taken her place. Farewell Anita, you were truly one of my favorite horror/fantasy characters. I shall miss you."
+16842,1,Threw this away last week,"We only used this to boil water. I guess we weren't careful enough with it, because almost immediatley it started getting rust around the edge of the heating element. It would wipe off, but then rust started developing all over the heating element."
+16843,2,An unputdownable book!,"Told by a Canadian author who's trying to complete his book, this is a story of his ill neighbour, Thomas Vanderlinden, a man who tries to understand his mother's decisions in love and marriages. Our narrator who becomes the confidante of Thomas's family history finds out how Rachel, Thomas's mother, married two men, both called Rowland Vanderlinden. The story involves ""husband-swapping, anthropological adventures in Peru and the South Pacific, true love lost to the claws of death, plague-ridden shiploads of exotic animals, a town populated by one-legged Scotsmen, and more"".The Dutch Wife is a brilliantly conceived novel that doesn't fail to provide a realistic and absorbing read."
+16844,1,STAY AWAY!!!!,"What a horrible piece of ....!It worked well the first oh.... 45 minutes, then as stated in the other reviews my tape player kept reversing every song or so & would then just eject the tape. Evidently from what I've learned this isn't an uncommon problem with this unit.I did like the fact that it has a car charger, great for road trips & if you spend lots of time in driving like I do. Also I liked the fact that the wires are retractable, unfortionately the pros don't mean anything if it won't stay in the tape deck!I've read several other reviews of these & am sorry I didn't purchase the Sony version which I'm going to have to buy now anyway.My advice is if your going with a tape model, stay away from this one & get the Sony."
+16845,1,A spirituality book,"I bought this book based on the ratings here and kept wondering if it was a spirituality book instead. I recommend other books instead for Career management such as ""What Color is your Parachute?"", ""The Career journey by Ram Iyer"" and ""Who moved my cheese?"""
+16846,1,Not Accurate. no customer support,Told to monitor BP at home and DR. recommended HoMedics brand. Bought this item and found my BP was sky high every time. My wife is a nurse so she brought home the real BP cuff and stethoscope from her office. We compared the HoMedic's numbers against her readings and found this model the BPA -100 was 12-20 point higher on the both the top and bottom numbers. Went to the manufactures website for support and found the bare minimal of information.Returned item for refund.
+16847,2,Charlie vs. Buster,"In one of my college classes recently we watched a Charlie Chaplin film, so when I saw this box set at WalMart (for $5.50) I knew it was too good to be true. These four movies are absolute classics; they can never be replaced by the movies of this day and age. If you're the type who can sit through a silent movie... this is definitely for you."
+16848,2,DOOMSDAY DISASTER,"This sequel to 10.5 is a disaster freak's dream come true. We get destruction of Hoover Dam; Las Vegas sinks into the sand; Mount Rushmore crumbles, and Houston is dessimated.While probably not geologically accurate, I found the movie pretty much enjoyable except for the too lengthy rescue sequence in Las Vegas, but the first half and the final third are pretty involving. There are no super star performances, but you get adequate ones from Kim Delaney, Frank Langella, Dean Cain, Oliver Hudson, Beau Bridges and Carlos Bernard. The CGI effects are pretty decent and although some of it is reminiscent of THE POSEIDON ADVENTURE, there have been a lot more disastrous disaster films, so if you're a genre fan, you shouldn't be too disappointed."
+16849,2,I taught from this book,This is an excellent basic book on compilers. Its strength is its strong practical approach combined with using YACC/LEX technology. It hand holds you through the development of a simple compiler. If I wanted to learn about compilers I would read this first. Its weakness is it is too narrow. There are plenty of features of languages that are not addressed but in passing. Its goal is to get a compiler built. For a compilers 101 class there is no better book.
+16850,1,Are you sure this is Pat?,"I am very disappointed in this CD. Not because the music isn't good, because it is. But because it is just not the Pat Green that used to play in Stillwater. The passionate, soulful Pat Green. Back then he sang about things that he believed in and loved. Now he is singing what Nashville tells him to. And this coming from the guy who sang ""Nashville Sucks"" with Cory Morrow. There are a ton of country singers out there that could have released this CD and it would have sounded exactly the same. But songs like ""Southbound 35"" and ""Three Day"" can only be sang by Pat Green. He needs to revisit his roots and come back to the red dirt country music that he was born to play. Will the real Pat Green please stand up?"
+16851,2,My shoes,I love the shoes but they ran big on me. I wish that I had ordered a size or at least a half size smaller.
+16852,1,"Of little value, but big price!!!",This book is very expensive for the quality. Don't buy it and drop any class that uses it if you are a serious student of finance.
+16853,2,Works great as a soft play area!,"I purchased this toy for my 9 month old son. We have hardwood floors throughout our house and it works great as a soft play area. Due to his age, I didn't expect him to play with it as a puzzle or understand the letters. He does chew on the various pieces. I have to watch to make sure he doesn't bite any pieces off but so far it hasn't been any issue. He likes to pull it apart but it's so easy to put back together...it usually only takes a few minutes. I think it's a great activity for him and a good introduction to letters and puzzles. I also have dogs and I love this playmat because it can easily be wiped down and cleaned. Overall, I am extremely satisfied with this product and would highly recommend it."
+16854,2,"Item is good, but New was more like Used","My complaint is not with the item itself so that's why it got 4 stars. The new item was not new! I saw the bottom of the plastic had a slice. So I opened it fully to check it out. My suspicion was correct, it was used. The measure was scotch taped to the flask. I opened and looked in, there was powder residue, the finish was stained and very slightly pitted so I guess it's been sitting for a little bit. I cleaned it with solvent, it helped but not perfect - at least it's inside. Next time I guess I will take a trip to the store even if it is a little out of the way. At least I know new is new."
+16855,2,RUBEN DOES IT AGAIN!!!!,"Ruben and Kanye are a ""dream team"". The remix of ""What if"" is off the chain. The musical genius of these two very talented young men is very evident to anyone who has an ear for music. Good job Ruben and Kanye!!!"
+16856,1,Great if you like misogynist writing and twincest,"Typical male-written fantasy. Strange sexual pairings, women as plot devices, and so generic it could have been a very long mad lib.I can't say I had high expectations, but I suppose they just weren't low enough to enjoy A Game of Thrones.Points to Martin, however, for getting people to read and buy it."
+16857,2,Are you looking for meaningful music?,I knew before I read the book that U2's music finds inspiration from the spiritual. I didn't realize how much they borrow from Biblical scripture and many other facets of the Christian walk. 'Walk on' and many other songs that you have heard will have new meaning once you read this book about U2.
+16858,1,"eastwood great as always, everything else.....eh","Being a big Eastwood fan, I bought this unseen and watched it for the first time last night. Eastwood is great, as always, although his cop character in this one displays a little more vulnerability than most of his tough guy roles. Locke's acting is over-the-top and annoying, as always. This is a pretty good action movie, but the ending is ridiculous. After blasting the hell out of this bus, the cops are just going to let Eastwood walk up the steps of city hall with a gun tucked into his waistband? I mean, no one says a word to him. And on top of that, he takes the assistant d.a. hostage and Locke's character shoots the police commissioner dead in front of the entire Phoenix police department, and nobody does a damn thing? Are you kidding? I'm all for suspending a sense of reality when watching action movies, but give me a break. This ain't no academy-award winner. Eastwood is the only thing saving this turkey."
+16859,1,This book sucks!,"This book is the most boring piece of trash I've read in a long time. The vocbulary is limited and the scope so narrow the story has virtually no meaning. It reads like a jaded, molested, sixteen year old boys fantasies. None of this is ""disgusting"" or ""disturbing"", its just stupid. There is no reason for any of the characters to act the way they do, nor does the story give any cause for the circumstance through which they endure. I want the fourty-five minutes it took to read back so I can waste them watching my socks dry.If Hell on Earth is your game, check out Barker's ""Down Satan!"" (which is where White ripped the idea off for this book I'm sure). If you want something honestly unsettleing, pick up James Havoc and enjoy.Don't waste your money on this waste of trees, I'll give you mine."
+16860,2,blast from the past,Uncertain at first but just wanted see how it went. For those who know the Grand Canyon must be fascinating. I would think it a must-have for those exploring this area.
+16861,1,Much like an infomercial,"I really like Joe McNally, and it was good to watch him work. But I own the strobes in this video and I got nothing from it. The stuff he covers about the lights seem to be designed to make you want to buy them (thus the infomercial remark). There is very little content about HOW to use the strobes or lighting guide lines. There's mostly comments like, there's a lot of sun behind the subject, so we need fill flash. OK, that's correct, but it's photo 101. I wish I could return this item in good faith. Save your money. Again, Joe is great, but there is no depth to what is presented here. Go buy Joe's book ""When it Clicks"". A far better place to spend your money. Nikon makes great lights, but does a lousy job of describing what you can do and how to do it.And visit the Strobist web site. That's the most magical place on the web for strobe lighting."
+16862,1,The missed Memo,I am assuming the author has missed the various memos on the refutation of a historical Jesus. There is NO evidence for Jesus. Anything beyond this proposition is intellectual dishonesty.
+16863,1,Riding?!? More like Parking.....,"I usually like Drew Barrymore, but this was not one I would recommend to anyone. Way too long, too hard to follow as it bounced back and forth in time, mostly showing us the worst the US has to offer in the world of white trash and heroin addiction. Not worth the money, the time or the effort to bother with. Girl goes out in car with guy. Girl gets knocked up. Girls marries worthless, drunken, addicted guy. Eventually she leaves and hopefully makes something of herself and finally lets go of her son. Scramble this and put it in slo-mo and that's the movie. Don't bother."
+16864,1,Slow plot and weak characters,"for one thing, the book was slow - it took forever to get exciting. But most maddening was the character of Ellie. She was supposed to be a police officer, but she was a complete and total wimp, constantly breaking into tears and having to be comforted by the hero. She was completely unbelievable as an officer of the law, and completely unprofessional as well - it is ridiculous that she would not call in the cavalry as soon as Kelso was kidnapped. She doesn't even wait to see if he's okay before driving off on an errand of her own and then manages to get herself captured as well when all she had to do was make a single call to the precinct to come and rescue them both. She was there only to be the love interest and a victim that Kelso had to rescue. Their romance was completely contrived and unrealistic also, and I was annoyed at Herbert's habit of calling her the ""girl"" in a demeaning fashion when she really should have been called a ""woman"""
+16865,2,Keys do not wear out!!,"Great feel when typing and no funky layout I love it. The illumination level is perfect when I type in a darkened room, no issues.I bought this product when it was first launched and the keys have not had any wear on them (contrary to another review here.) The letters are laser cut through the entire key so the illumination can shine through, so how they could wear out?"
+16866,1,depressing,"I found this one even more depressing than book one. I have always said a good book will never let you down, this one is and did. I also read the authors interview, and did not care for his attitude toward his readers. I would recommend this book only to masochists."
+16867,2,Beautiful,"Perfect card holder, exactly as described and pictured. I bought a 3rd for my other office and bought some of the matching products for my desk. Can't beat the price!"
+16868,2,Web Design in a Nutshell,"This is a great desk reference book! While it is a challenging book to read, I know it will come in super handy when I need to find the answer to a specific technical question!"
+16869,1,BORING,"the movie is short, boring and confusing. Robert Pattinson did well but the story mediocre to say the least and the movie was DULL and BORING"
+16870,1,not fresh,"I usually enjoy this product but the box I received from amazon was not fresh, so tasted more dry than usual. The date on box expires soon, so I can tell this is an old box/batch of bars. Very disappointed."
+16871,2,Iove this brush,"I have super curly hair. Tight curls. This brush does help with detangling. I think because the bristles are so flexible, it does not hurt as much. Im very tender headed. I will buy again."
+16872,1,"Terrible, Frustrating, Impossible","Do not buy this toy!!! I really would have liked to give this a ""zero"" star rating. My son received this as a Christmas gift and it has been the most frustrating project we have ever attempted. The machine is durable enough and fairly well constructed but it seems almost impossible to achieve success. We have made dozens of attempts to make the cars and have only been able to successfully complete one. The worst part is having to see how disappointed he is every time we open a mold to a failed attempt!"
+16873,1,Box was all banged up,Pretty good scent but the handling of the product was horrible. The box was all dented and the top ripped. When i opened the box i found the cologne to be cracked but not leaking thankfully. Good scent but absolutely horrible shipping. Was not satisfied
+16874,2,American Mcgee's Alice Musical score....Worth the money??,"American Mcgee's Alice is a great album. It is one of my favorites in my collection. This is mainly because I loved the hit comuter game ""American Mcgee's Alice"". But, even if you never played the game, hearing the music can get you to stop dead in your tracks and wonder what and where the music is coming from. While playing the game, I noticed how terrific and entertaining the music was. It was then and there when I noticed I HAD to find this CD. Tracks 5 and 17, Wonderland Woods and the Pool of tears are the two most eventful and soothing/entertaining songs on the CD. All of the tracks are interesting and intriguing.If you are a huge American Mcgee's Alice Fan, or just looking for great and different music, this is the CD for you....."
+16875,1,Keep DES separated from reality,"I am enjoying other DES books, but ""The English Air"" deals directly with politics and the start of WWII. It is impossible to mix the pleasant ""hammock book"" world of DES with discussions of concentration camps, Nazi war preparations etc. DES' world is one where the characters are already nostalgic for the good old days, and her Scotland is vaguely like LLBean's ""Maine""- fun but probably remote from the place ordinary people inhabit. It is not a world of politics and military action. Once these things are brought together, I found myself facing up to the hidden politics of all the rest of DES' world: i.e. her manly young British heroes go off to various parts of the Empire to fight ""bandits."" Some of these bandits may have been nationalist freedom fighters- but the point is, no one reads DES to get into these issues. ""The English Air"" makes them unavoidable."
+16876,2,Demented but great,"This CD is defenitly not for kids. It's violent, and drug oriented, and hilarius at the same time. It's also much better than the ""Marshal Mathers LP"". The reason I only gave it a four stars is becuase it has a lot of negativity in it. Even though he talks about killing his wife in ""97' bonie and clide"" you can hardly take any of it seriusly. The one I can't stand is ""Still don't give a f__k"". The violence in it is outrageous. Parents beware....."
+16877,1,One of the worst,"I see I'm in the minority among Amazon reviewers on this one. All I can advise is that you read what critics have had to say about this film before making a purchase. Most, you will find, rate it as quite poor -- and for good reason.Some might wish to pick up this DVD for the re-pairing of ""Producers"" duo Zero Mostel and Gene Wilder. Think again. Whatever one may think of the original absurdist Ionesco play that is its source, it's clear that it doesn't work on the movie screen.In fact, it's excruciatingly bad (and not in an enjoyable way). Even fans of Mostel and Wilder are not likely to find any redeeming value."
+16878,2,Functional and well made skimmer,"My wife thought the ""basket"" on this skimmer would be larger (diameter wise) but it seems to be pretty functional an she has been using it, so I assume it works well. It appears to be fairly well made (even though it is from China, I think)."
+16879,1,Reinforced Plastic,"Storehorse 10115-6 is nothing more than the original storehorse. The description is misleading, I didn't see how the plastic was reinforced with any fiberglass. Also, it does not tell you that you are buying a pair, so don't order 2 like I did, or you will get 2 pair.Added Later: I see they updated the title to include (1pair)"
+16880,2,Your Half of the Apple,"Reading this book changed my life. I was 24, single, with all and, I mean all of my friends married. I felt odd-woman out at any gathering of friends. I was discouraged and at the end of a line of several frog-not-the-prince relationships. After I read Your Half of the Apple, I had a new perspective on living singly. I began to do things that I could only do being single. I traveled, volunteered, took courses, then I filled out the paperwork for VISTA Volunteers but before I could mail them, I met my future husband. I was almost disappointed that I was now beginning a relationship, but God's timing was perfect."
+16881,2,GREAT BOOK !!!,"Having been to India many times, I found Sarah MacDonald's book to be very funny, entertaining, and accurate in its depiction of travels in India."
+16882,2,It's all about Peoples!!,"Shaft initially struck me as anticlimatic. Until I took a closer look at the stellar performance of Jeffrey Wright as Peoples. Wright captured the heart and soul of the designer-clad,thick-accented Dominican Republican and made him come alive in a way that brought a sharp pang of homesickness to this Bronx-bred sister. As I listened to Wright speak and witnessed his swaggering machismo I could hardly believe he was American born. This film was decent and sometimes even surprising but Peoples definitely proved himself the 'star'. Busta Rhymes injected a strong note of hilarity and Vanessa Williams was very believable in her role as a street cop (no sign of glamour). Samuel L. Jackson was a good-looking Shaft but came across as a little too volatile."
+16883,2,TAMIA IS YOUR BEST!!!!,"ALL THE TRACKS ARE GOODI PLAYED THIS ALBUM ALL THE TIMEIN 2001 I SILL LISTEN TO ITNOW AND IT'S STILL A GREATRELEASE I FEEL.MY HIGHLIGHT ARE:UHH....TO YOU,TELL ME WHO,CANT GO FOR THAT,GO,DEAR JOHN,STANGER IN MY HOUSE AND IF I WERE YOU.TAMIA IS A GREAT ARTIST GO OUT AND SUPPORT THIS ALBUM."

+16885,1,i like this song because they are telling the truth about it,i like this song because they are telling the truth about relationship and what we do in life and this is the number one song on the chart beside all of they other song on this album but i really do like they other song from this album which that the name of the song is girl from there second album and they follow up album is love always and they new cd x these brother they have skills and a wonderful voice and they know how to remake a oldest song and make it sound like it brand new song and these are my boy because i fell inlove with them every since they was with the group jodeci and i can't hardly wait until jodeci reunion album come out because jodeci three album was the bomb and now they third cd is off the hook alone with it's real and love always and i want to know what next from these brother.
+16886,2,it really is the best,"This mouse pad may just look like an ordinary mouse pad, but it isn't. It works great and lets your mouse move as smoothly and precisely as the mouse you own can be. I couldn't find the dimensions on this website for the size of this mouse pad but its not like an oridinary sized mouse pad, unless this is a smaller version. I'm almost certain that this thing is big enough to fit your mouse and part of your keyboard on it. (like half) its really confortable and works great.its the best buy if you need a great gaming mouse pad.use this one."
+16887,2,Very Pleased with item for the price!,"I had searched for this item and found the best price on [...]This cart is not really sturdy, but it serves the purpose it was purchased for, I had my weber grill on 2 saw horses and wanted a more stable base for it. I LOVE my Weber Q Grill and now i really love it on the handy rolling cart."
+16888,1,you get what you pay for,"I bought this and within a couple months (no more than ten vacuum sessions of less than 400 square feet), it pretty much stopped having suction when used as an upright. There is still good suction with the hose, but that's a pretty impossible way to clean a carpet."
+16889,1,Boring,"The best thing about this film is the soundtrack. 79 Euro disco and hypnotic psyche prog rock. I give the sounds track 5 stars.The movie itself. Not so good. Unless you like boring. none of the characters are sympathetic or fascinating. theres a lot of dead air where nothings is going on. the violence is sudden sadistic and revolting, and very rare. theres not much sense of impending doom or walls closing in. theres an obvious shakespear influence - but its no where close to that kind of quality. then tried to prop it up.the lead gangsters rant against americans at the end seems sudden and not really fitting with the theme of the film. there is a xenophobic undertone to the film - the bad guys are black, irish, or american.this one doesnt seem up to criterion quality. more like they licensed cheap back catalog. I could barely stay awake. My GF fell asleep in the first 20min. I held on hoping it was building to something... not really."
+16890,1,Rubbish,"""Date Night"" is a very bad film. It's touted as being a modern comedy but is, in reality, little more than slapstick. I failed to even raise a grin let alone laugh. People suggesting this is a comedy are in danger of contravening truth in advertising laws.The plot, in brief, centres around a ""typical"" couple from New Jersey who happen to stumble across a criminal conspiracy involving police, organised crime and the potential New York district attorney. It is a far fetched plot that tests the credulity of even the most sympathetic viewer. Indeed, it is simply absurd.Don't waste two hours of your life. Avoid this film!"
+16891,1,The Universe - The Complete Season One,Wanted to Know Before Purchasing Product: On the Amazon Web site it says that the audio is English and Spanish. I have received the video and there is no Spanish Audio. Otherwise the series is spectacular.
+16892,2,2001 Emmy nominee,"I love this CD especially the title song, Soldier Of The Cross.Ricky Skaggs Emmy nomination is richly deserved."
+16893,1,Waste of time and money,"Reading at 25,000 WPM is attractive. ""Mentally photographing"" a book within three minutes is attractive. There are heaps of books and journals and material out there to be read. Who wouldn't want to look at a page for less than a second and remember everything on it? That would be unreal.And it _is_ unreal.I tried it - the tangerine on my head, ""photographing"" etc. No increase in reading speed or improvement in comprehension and recall. The book did not benefit me in any way. In fact, it wasted a lot of my time.Don't waste your time and money on this."
+16894,1,"Mostly ossified, with a few moments of excellence","There are not many rare, surprising or sophisticated essays in this collection. Most bore with their sclerotic whingeing. I enjoyed Slavitt, Kalfus, the writer who critiques Freudian etiology, perhaps one or two others. Simon, Lopate, and Epstein are, as usual, tedious and inflexible. Also, the preponderance of the opening quotes detailing our decline and fall were culled from the New York media complex (Times, WSJ, The New Yorker and on and on) as though nothing of interest and nobody of perspicacity could possibly exist ""out there"". This is New York provincialism at its most loathsome. This is primarily a roster of soreheads and reactionaries rehearsing thier solipsism. Pardon me if I cease to lend an ear."
+16895,1,Overpriced. Terrible layout.,"This is a really thin book, and for the price, the production value is terrible. The graphic design, and poor layout, takes a lot away from the information of the book. Page after page, you wonder if this recent publication was from the 1980s.The information was light, and just skimmed over details. There was WAY too much emphasis on Analog. There are other search softwares out there. The case studies were nice, but no real insight was given.Overall - it's an overpriced fluff book. Could be summaried in 5 pages."
+16896,1,Buyer Beware: CD-Rom does not work with windows XP,And you won't know it until you get it. I was depending on those tests. The book is ok so far.
+16897,2,Easy to read educational breeding book,"Excellent read for a new breeder such as myself and a great value considering the cost of this book if bought new. My husband claims to never have read a book in his life, but read this cover to cover."
+16898,2,Great Book,"This is a great trivia book for R and B and Hip-hop fans alike. I liked it so much, I bought one for my brother."
+16899,1,NEEDED HERE: A DOSE OF REALITY,"This is one of the strangest books I have ever read. Who knows what the truth is concerning Ms. Locke's relationship with Mr. Eastwood? All of these people mentioned in this book are living in Self-Absorption Land. Her relationship with her husband is even more bizarre. Having your cat freeze-dried after it dies? Huh? Oh, yes. Mystical indeed! If they ever decide to make a made for TV movie from this story, it should be presented on the Sci-Fi channel. Beam them all up Mr. Scott, sounds like they are waiting for the flying saucers, anyway!"
+16900,1,Didn't really like it....,I was so excited to receive this. Thought I would cut down on the calories. I didn't like the taste at all. We baked a banana bread and we threw it out. I am going to try again with brownies and add a little bit more. Maybe I just did not add enough. I thought it had an after taste though. I will still use it up and try once more.
+16901,2,"A slight shift for McCarthy, yet powerfully successful as a story","Certainly a departure in subject matter (following a father and son through a post-apocalyptic wasteland) for McCarthy, though his familiar style remains. This is effectively somewhere between science fiction and horror, and yet the tale focuses resolutely on the experiences of the characters, their hopes and strivings. No explanation is given for how the world ended up in this state, yet none is really needed. Powerful, harrowing, beautifully written."
+16902,1,Nonstick wore off in one year,"The pan worked well for one year. Now just about everything sticks, even though I coat the pan with oil. I have always followed all of the pan's instructions, including only using rubber utensils. Now I am going to buy a Swiss Diamond 12.5 inch pan, because they actually remain nonstick for life."
+16903,2,good set for the home improver,"I really like all the different items you get with this set. I was glad I bought it, because I broke one of the drill bits that came with the drill trying to hang shutters (I found out it was too light duty after it broke and I used the right kind). I'm new at home improvement projects, and this has been working for me very well."
+16904,1,Broke the day it was given to him!,"My son got this as a gift for his birthday. It is very cute...in the box! Once it was opened, the plastic globe broke when it fell out of his hands and on the floor. Of the two places it broke one place it very sharp, therefore it went into the trash! I would not buy this item."
+16905,1,"It was only good for some songs, the rest sucked",Monica is a good artist but she is not as good as brandy because she doesn't have the groove to her other songs that aren't popular.I own brandy and monica's cds. personally i think monica has some work to do.
+16906,1,A huge disappointment,"I truly expected something much better from Margaret Atwood. What I got was a disjointed substandard set of scenes, never developed properly - and held together by only the flimsiest of plot lines. After reading this book, I told a family member that it reminded me of cheap X-rated movies; everything seemed to serve only as placeholders for sleazy sex scenarios. If this was the only book by Margaret Atwood that someone had read, they would think she was a frustrated screenwriter for low budget adult movies.This book was so bad that I threw it out. I wouldn't want to inflict this poor excuse for a novel on anyone. And if this is where her writing is going-it will be the last Atwood book I ever read. And that is a very sad thing to have to say about any author."
+16907,1,Don't buy,"Stay away from baseball game this year. Without MVP baseball having the mlb license, the games just aren't worth the time and money. MLB the show, has terrible game play and overall isn't fun to play. I bought MLB the show one night and sold it the next. MVP basebal sucks with the college players so don't buy that either."
+16908,2,FINALLY! A Good Mainstream Rap-Rock CD..,"I am usually not a fan of the nu-metal/rap-rock movement at all, but this is a good CD. This is much more than Limp Bizkit garbage, these guys actually have lyrics that are...somewhat meaningful. The idea of having two vocalists sets this band away from the crowd, both vocalists are good, and they both have different strengths and weaknesses, which makes this album rare in the fact it has good rap AND good screaming in it. One thing about rap rock that is dissapionting is some vocalists can be great singers, but their rapping voice is horrible, which can greatly degrade an otherwise decent album. All of the songs on this CD are at least decent, except I really dislike track 10. Besides that, this is a great CD and it can be enjoyed by alot of people."
+16909,1,Stupid,I watched it on TV and believe me I would never buy this stupid thing!!!!!It does not even rate a one star!!!!

+16911,2,It Does the Job,"Good basic sweatband. Shipping was fast and the sweatband does exactly what I bought it for - to keep the sweat out of my eyes while running. It's old fashioned and I look like I'm from the 70s when I wear it, but as long as my eyes don't sting I'm OK. Recommended!"

+16913,2,Petmate Bubbler,I have had the bubbler for about 8 months. Past month very little bubbles. so I cleaned the valve by soaking in alcohol.would be fine for a day and then very little bubbles. I recalled review where person broke the valve and connecteddirectly to the air pump. best thing that happened. I tookout the valve and connected directly. now bubbles galore.I have a male 8 months old balinese siamese. He likes a lotof bubbles. as rec. by my vet I use only distilled water.of course if your pet does not like a lot of big bubblesyou will have to use the valve.
+16914,1,Do Not Buy This Product,First of all the instructions for assembling this bed is extremly poor. The material is cheap and I do not recomend this product to anyone.
+16915,1,God awful.,"I knew this would be bad going in, but not this bad. I laughed once in 90 minutes - pretty sad. The rest of the time, I squirmed in agony from the truly dreadful plot, the bad writing, and the uninspired acting. Just a mess of a movie that should have been scrapped and entirely reworked. Who green lights this stuff? Did someone think this was worth producing? A talented cast is utterly wasted in perhaps the year's worst movie."
+16916,2,"The Soldier's Lady, Shadows over Stonewycke, Miss Katies Rosewood",It has been a while since I've read these books. Michael Phillips has made history come alive through them. I like the fact that I haven't found inappropriate words used in them.

+16918,2,A man with vision,"Jack's three books continue to inspire readers from all walks of life all over the world. Having met the author and after reading his books, I was inspired to take the long road to writing one myself. Where many people may feel life is nothing but a singular event - something lived for a few years and then lost - Jack's vision teaches us of the linear nature of our lives. We are born, one from the previous, taking up the baton of probing our reality and building a future within an uncertain universe. His books do not preach, they fascinate the reader - lending a sense of awe and purpose to each of our lives. I strongly recommend this book, and his other two, as wonderful opportunities to become more alive and add purpose and meaning to your own life.mol"
+16919,1,Another beautiful example...,Another beautiful example that Palm DOES NOT LISTEN to consumers. I have owned MANY palm units in my career. I have 2 needs that are paramount. 1.User changable batteries and a long battery life. 2.Flash memory that doesen't loose data. Palm has a WONDERFUL OS. Seeing patients all day and not being near a charger made me trash this. I would settle for a grayscale screen if I could change the batteries myself and have flash memory. Palm all but completely lost the medical community with its new units.Bottom line: All the bells and whistles of this machine are worthless if the battery doesent last.

How to Break Through Any Relationship Stalemate",Excellent book with 6 questions to answer for all sorts of relationship problems leading to an amicable solution worked out by yourself. Amazing and easy to do with great results in the many case studies in the book. Every home should have this book.
+16922,2,"If you like Stray Cats, you'll like this CD","I bought this CD for the hits, which were good enough, but if you like the ""live"" sound of a band, you'll really enjoy the live tracks on this CD.Some music is simply meant to be heard live, and rockabilly is one of them. The energy just makes you want to get up and hit the floor running.This is a fun CD."
+16923,1,Art?,"The art in question is... well... horrible. It looks like the ""artist"" took pictures of real life people, then used photo-manipulation techniques to turn them into fairies. They look creepy and ugly.The book, however, does have some good points, in that it lists quite a few good spreads. That's about the only thing I'd ever use it for."
+16924,2,My all-time favorite novel!,"This book is my absolute favorite. I've read it several times and like it more each time. I've always been facinated with Russia and the revolution, and I love the way this story is told from the time of the revolt to modern day United States. Intriguing, full of mystery and romance."
+16925,1,too heavey etc.,"the thing is very heavy, bottom heavy mostly, and you can burn yourself getting the small removable lid off. also would be easy to lose. if lid is not on it will not shut off automatic.looks cool in photo, but is too much money and not perfect!"
+16926,1,Good,I liked this movie so much when I was way younger but watching it now is not the same.The graphics are lame and the story is too.A good movie to remember the old days but that's about it.
+16927,1,heraldry,not much to say about this book it's very limited. the Spanish names are too common it's very vague it's nice to have as a collection or just to breeze through.this book is not for re-search it's just for novelty. the book arrived just find except they told me it was new but the cover showed some use and some of the pages where a little bent there was some writing on the pages too.
+16928,1,HUGE,"I can't believe how huge this belt is. I ordered it according to their recommended size, but it looks like it would fit an elephant and when I tighten it to fit, the material is all bunched up. Even if it wasn't so large around my waist I would not find this belt comfortable, it has a really big band that goes half way up my back and digs into my legs, so it is impossible to sit down in. I only wear it at home if I am going to be standing for a while, but it comes off the second I sit down. So unfortunately I can't wear this support when I go out, it is very difficult to put on and would be to much of a hassle, plus you have to take it off to use the restroom. I wish I had not purchased this product."

+16930,1,EASILY BURNS IN KETTLE,"I tried 1 batch of the caramel and even watching it the stuff scorched. I paid to much for my machine to let it get ruined by this stuff so I just tossed the whole case, unopened flavors and all. I will just stick with microwave caramel corn when I feel like that. Complete waste of my money and at Christmas time as well. It may work better in other conditions or larger machines. I have a 8oz machine and did not feel like taking the risk."

+16932,1,Computer upgrade,This product will not run on a computer that is in very good shape. This flight sim. needs the very best in graphics cards and ram memory. Over all the airplanes and setup of the program is not comparable to flight sim. 2004. I can't say to much good for the program.

My cats are from the Human Society coming from an abusive house. It has taken some adjustments but they have settled well into my quiet calm household, and these plugins have helped tremendously."

+16940,1,"Please stop-motion FX Harryhausen, come back!!","Since the story is the greatest ever writtenI couldn't possibly think that I would consider this was going to be a crapy film but after seeing the special effects I must ask myself, if this is some kind of joke or an unfinished demo version I came across?The worst ever imaginable ""CGI"" you've ever come across on this side of 1985 (just watch the hilarious Thunderchild vs. tripod scene.)And when the first alien emerges from the cylinder all my hopes that this was going to be a great film was pulverized.Hello? Ancient Videogame anyone?!Although quite entertaining to watch with a lot of good laughs!And the acting wasn't much to talk about either.Sorry Timothy, better luck next time."
+16941,2,The Fact is Fred is Fabulous,"As a trainer and CIO of a company, the FRED FACTOR is the book that every sales person must have to understand that extraordinary salesmanship does not require the elaborate.I recommend the FRED FACTOR for every training our company presents because the message is simple and in that magnificent simplicity, the message can be translated to every level of service regardless of company size.I read a another review of this book about the book being short and personally I'm quite certain that its size contributes to the immediate popularity of the book. WHO MOVED MY CHEESE is also a short book, and both books prove that when you can illustrate the point in a universal story in an uncomplicated format, the customers vote with impressive sales that this book provides a powerful message for anyone in a service industry."
+16942,2,Great first stroller,"We live in the city and loved the easy fold, big basket, one handed steering option, parent tray and it's light weight. Most babies will fall asleep in their car seat, so its's easy to keep them in their seat and drop them into this carrier and keep them in the car seat. This carrier is less bulky, less expensive than a travel system. We live in the city and it handled well. Though the wheels are plastic and it's not built as robust as a primary stroller, it's a great first stroller option. We are now buying our primary stroller and are happy that we weren't locked into a travel system. Now we can buy the stroller tha best suits our changing needs and we've saved money."
+16943,1,The Cat Who Earned Two Stars,"The Cat Who Went Bananas, by Lilian Jackson Braun, is a rather slight novel that sadly seems to have been written for the sole purpose of producing a book, rather than telling a story. The paperthin plot does not inpsire much interest. I had a difficult time determining what the book was about and whether or not there was any mystery involved. I remembered somebody mentioning a person had died, and then there was a missing book, but I could not for the life of me remember why. This was my fourth book in the series, after starting with the first three. I think I had better continue with the series in order as the quality comparison between the first three and this one decreased drastically.Two stars."
+16944,2,Unscheduled Pratfall Prevention,"Chair-Loc does just that without gluing, or the necessity of taking furniture apart.It is thin enough to slide into the smallest cracks. What it does in there is causes the wood to swell and fit tightly once again.A treatment lasts so long that since I last used it on my antique furniture, I have moved, and none of the local hardware stores have even heard of it, let alone carry it. I found it at Amazon.The directions that come with it are easy to read and follow. IT ONLY WORKS ON WOOD. Sorry to shout at you like that, but I don't want you to waste your money on the wrong product."
+16945,2,A solid album from yesteryear,"I've always loved this album and initially had the vinyl album, and still do. I was excited to see this CD-R version available because the real CD version is too expensive, for me anyway. The reason I'm writing this review is because I read another that stated the sound quality is ""tinny"" and doesn't sound good at all. This is NOT true, at least with the disc I got. If you have the original vinyl album this sounds exactly the same. I don't know if they remixed and remastered that vinyl album for the official CD version when it was released, maybe they did and it sounds better than the vinyl, but this CD-R version sounds exactly like the album I have, and is NOT inferior in any way. I didn't think it sounded ""tinny"" and all, it has a great bass sound to it. For the price, I am very satisfied, and so happy to finally have a CD I can play in the car!!!!"
+16946,2,"Haunting, beautiful, sensitive distillation of rural life",Arrests your consciousness with its imagery and language. Rewards thoughtful reading with its insight and wisdom. The fundamental themes of generations and inheritance are a modern echo of Ecclesiastes. This is the best debut collection of poems I've read in years.

+16951,2,Excellent Adaptation of a Great Novel,"This is a well acted, well presented adaptation of Ayn Rand's wonderful novel of individual rights. Ayn Rand herself wrote the screenplay and it is presented with the same style as her writing. While this style may not be for everybody her message definitely is. At a time when our rights are under brutal attack from our own government, Ayn Rand's works are more important than ever. This movie adaptation will help to remind Americans of why we are Americans and what this country stands for. I urge everyone to not only watch this film, but get as many of your friends and neighbors to watch it as well. Then readAnthemandAtlas Shruggedto see exactly where we will end up if we stay on the road to statism that Obama is leading us down."
+16952,1,Have Yourself a Dreary Little Christmas........,"Gee, all she needs is a cover of ""The Christmas Shoes"" and this depressing cd would be complete.....I love Carly, but stay away from this, unless you're a HUGE fan and you need it to complete your collection. She can do much better."
+16953,2,once a taker always a taker,"I am a sceptic when it comes to stuff I feel like I have heard somewhere else. I have heard her voice and it was Fiona apple meets bjork in a qiurky world built by Jeff Buckly. I listen to the first song and I was overwhelmed by chills up and down my arms. Now, I cant stop thinking about it.some albums you just cant help but give it a try and try try again. Then you love it. and you cant stand to be with out."
+16954,1,wake up,Unbelievable that so many are unable to see throught this racist thug and his racist non-music. It's no longer about the color of peoples skin-wake up! It's about the culture and lifestyles they choose to adopt. And the parents who let their kids listen to this garbage must be either crazy or ignorant. It's sad that someone so poorly educated has such a powerful influence over the most disadvantaged.
+16955,2,"Excellent Introduction, Overview, and Touchstone to The Buddha","This video covers the major stages of The Buddha's life and the key experiences and learnings on his path to enlightenment. In that sense, it is a wonderful reference for anyone on a spiritual path. While some of the Buddha's challenges may have been specific to his time, most have their counterparts in our modern world. The video presents the life and spiritual journey of The Buddha in a very accessible and understandable way.I liked that the video kept up a fairly fast pace while also giving the more profound teachings of the Buddha their due. The result is an easy to take in overview of his entire life and teachings...but with meaningful reference points and guidance for anyone with a spritual practice."
+16956,2,Great buy,This is by far one of the best investments I made for several reasons:1) Heavy duty construction2) Ease of installation3) Flexibility4) Cables organizerI've had it for 4 years in a harsh environment and the unit still looks like new. THis is a must buy!!!
+16957,1,Dead,"Bought this June of 2010. Not even a year since and the pack no longer recharges. I use the cord to power my controllers. That works fine but the battery packs are horrible. Even when charged, it was constantly warning me of a low battery half way through the charge. Very annoying when playing a game to see the xbox button flashing in my face. I treat my stuff like gold and cycle batteries properly. This pack has ended up being worse than my rechargeable batteries. I can't recommend this item. I'm probably going back to lithium until they make a rechargeable battery that actually has a decent shelf life."
+16958,1,Uma Thurman in Teen Movie Hell,"Even at the tender age of sixteen, Uma Thurman has the good sense not to appear very much in this death-rattle of a teen flick. Anthony Michael Hall, impressive as a nerd in The Breakfast Club appears to have been living on cow pie ever since, and has filled out to become a most ungainly quarterback. Some colleges try to recruit him. He eventually realise this is a bad thing, and money isn't everything. Ho hum. Funniest bit was realising that people ... now think that the geek is attractive."
+16959,2,Terrific,"This is definatly a good book, along with all the other books in this series. If you love to read gordon korman books you'll love this book. I'm not really in to hockey but I thought that this was a really great book!"
+16960,1,This Is Just 8 Episodes!,Buffy the Vamire Slayer is an awesome show but this DVD set is only a best of episodes set with only 8 episodes. If you are into this great TV show just buy the complete seasons or the new DVD set that has every season all together!
+16961,2,"Funny, especially the first half of the book","I enjoyed the levity over what is in reality a serious problem for many. Rebecca Bloomwood was adorable in this book. She couldn't help over-shopping and tried to talk herself out of it, but invariably talked herself into it. Shopping was ruining her life. Her life was filled with anxiety because there was no foreseeable way to get on top of her bills or stop shopping.I didn't feel Luke Brandon was a realistic character only because he was such a knight in shining armor to the extent that he was. Rebecca seemed realistic though, and that's what counts. Luke served a purpose in that he got her to use her talents, honed during years of hardcore shopping. The first half of the book was fun when the wonderful solution was not in reach and there was constant suspense."
+16962,1,Disappointed,"After watching the ""Laugh and Learn About Childbirth"" I was really looking forward to ""Laugh and Learn About Newborn Baby Care"", and I was really disappointed. Basically all this DVD covered is bathing, dressing and swaddling your baby. I expected so much more. I wanted information on feeding, burping, sleep schedules, etc. When this DVD was finished I looked at my husband and asked ""that's it?"". It really isn't as comprehensive as it claims, which is a shame because it had so much potential. I really like Sheri, and was really hoping for so much more."
+16963,1,This cd [stinks],I did not enjoy this cd. I wanted more emo rock out of this and instead i got some bad music. If your into techno this is your cd.
+16964,2,TY shark,This shark was purchased for my 13 yr. old granddaughter who is an avid Ty collector and was pursuing this particular shark and was thrilled when I found it for her.
+16965,2,Classic movie remastered,"This is a classic Garland movie, showing that not only can she belt out a tune, but she can act as well. Covering loads of special features, unfortunately most of them are just ports from the previous anniversary edition dvd, but hey, the restoration is great on this disc and it is a classic movie, it's well worth the money."
+16966,2,Great WWII Submarine series,"This was a great WWII submarine series to read. Pride Runs Deep, the first novel in the series sets the stage for the second novel, Sink the Shigure which picks up where this novel leaves off. They kept my interest all the way through."
+16967,2,Baby Says It's the best,My 15 month old loves to sit and look at the book as well as have it read to her. It is one of the few books that will hold her interest for quite some time.
+16968,2,Greatly surpassed my expectations!,"I love this shoji screen! Purchased the 5 panel in Honey. I needed a screen on each side of a window so I removed two hinges and am now using 3 panels on one side and 2 panels on the other side. The honey color is much richer and more beautiful than as pictured. Hinges are very nice quality and are double-hinged so each panel can move in either direction, a nice feature! Rice paper is soft and thick while still letting diffused light through, beautiful! Oriental Furniture delivered FedEX very quickly and a day earlier than the estimated delivery window. Packaging was excellent. I recommend this screen from Oriental Furniture very highly."
+16969,2,One of the best!,"I have not seen this episode in years if anyone can tell me where you can buy it on a collectors edition I would appreciate! I own 4 editions of Scooby Doo, and The Chiller Diller Movie Thriller is not on any of them!"
+16970,1,Never Played,"I bought this for a friend as a Christmas gift, was very disappointed to find that it would not play on any DVD player (4 different ones tried). When I returned it I did not get a full refund because it was not from Amazon but from another company through Amazon. Buyer beware! I almost never buy from other vendors because the return policies are not as good as Amazon's, be sure to read the policies from vendors other than Amazon. BTY Amazon is still my favorite retailer!"
+16971,1,Too narrow!,"I had such high hopes for these boots after reading all the great reviews. I am an average sized gal and have never had a problem zipping up boots, but these were way too narrow in the foot and the shaft. I wear a size 8 or 8.5 normally. I ordered the 8 and couldn't zip them up even half way, plus the actual foot part was too narrow. I don't think going up half a size would have fixed the narrow width or the the narrow shaft, so I just returned them for a refund."
+16972,1,Where to start...,"There were some interesting facts presented along with some equally horrendous misinformation. I just can't get into someone who writes about the atrocities of one group without discussing the equally deplorable behavior of the other side. I find it disappointing that no one ever manages to write something that is completely objective. Just the facts please! I think I can make up my own mind from there on. In the end, some interesting facts, and some leaps in logic that might give you a laugh or two."
+16973,1,didnt help,"my 65lb German Shepherd still pulls. We no long use this collar. I bought a ""no pull harness"" and that works wonders. I'll be selling this collar at the Thrift Shop soon. Worthless."
+16974,1,avoid at all costs,I just bought this thing and it is horrible. It barely toasts bread and leaves one burnt grill mark on the bread while the rest of it isn't even toasted. The worst part about it is that it makes the bread smell like aluminum and I believe it is unsanitary.
+16975,2,"Excellent product, excellent price",This glass washer is a great product to have behind ANY busy bar. We run it almost constantly throughout the night and it runs like a champ. I'd recommend them to anyone.
+16976,1,Don't waste your money,"If you suffer from insomnia, this DVD is perfect for you! I bought this thinking it would contain an interactive slide show of Hubble images. Wrong! It is just a mishmash of panned images to well-written but very boring music. Instead of showing complete images, the disk starts out zoomed in to one corner of an image and then slowly pans to the opposite corner. It does this for every picture!!! It never pulls back so we can see the whole image which to me is what Hubble pictures are all about. I couldn't stand any more than the first ten minutes because I couldn't stay awake."
+16977,1,Maybe for older kids,"I bet this would be great for older kids that idolize Elmo, but didn't work for my 22 month old. There really isn't any visual of using the potty - more talking and singing about it. I was hoping for simple language and visuals instead."
+16978,2,Converted a hard-core C programmer to the STL!,"I thought this book was great. It gave me allot of good ideas and showed me how to things I didn't know how to before. But the real selling point was that I loaned it to a coworker who was a hard-core C programmer. He scoffed at C++ and OOP in general; making statements like ""Everything I need to do can be done in C"". After reading three items in the book he was questioning his thinking and trying new things. His latest project is not only in C++ but it's also embedded in the STL. He's taken quite a liking to it and has learned a lot of new things.While I wouldn't recommend this book for a beginner, anyone that wants to further his or her understanding of the STL should read this book cover to cover."
+16979,1,Going out of style!,"I purchased this album back in 1992 only because I was familiar with their work on Paula Abdul's Spellbound album. However, their Chain album is not all what it's cracked up to be. Even in 1992, I thought the music was going out of style, as there are too much bass, too much horn and screaming. I think the songs would have sounded better if they harmonized better instead of focusing on the overrated pop."
+16980,2,mind blowing,"I can't believe this is the same guy who wrote ""The Bible Code"" - which I agree is a lot of hooey. Maybe it's just someone with the same name?I find it hard to grasp the book fully but the parts that I can pick up definitely seems valid and the book offers a lot of almost-for-layman explanations concerning cellular automatas, neural nets, quantum physics and how they relate to AI. Jeffrey's writing style is also a joy to follow. He seems to be very critical of Fritzof Capra's 'The Tao of Physics' so one hopes he is more rigorous and takes less liberties in drawing conclusions from scientific literature. To me, both books are pretty interesting reads."
+16981,2,A Learning Experience,"This was a very good book. When I found out later that this book was recommended for children and young adults to read I was very surprised. I'm not sure if a child would be able to take the emotional heartbreak of this story. But, as for adults, it was very informative and touching. I cried when reading some parts and knowing that when you are living it, you cannot just stop living it, you must go on. The writing is exceptional, not sentimental or romanticized like some books. I looked at the world in a new way after reading this. I don't think my struggles can ever be as bad and if they are I know I can handle them if the girl in this story could."
+16982,1,A big build up to nothing.,"An entire book dedicated to character building, and setting up the plot, only to have a deflated ending. Philip Roth goes through in excruciating detail about the Swede's childhood, and upbringing. Then he moves on to talk about his family, his work, and his troubles with his lost daughter. Throughout the whole book, it seemed like Philip was building up to a spectacular finale. However, the story instead ends abruptly with no real conclusion. I felt cheated. Where's the rest of the story?"
+16983,2,The most twisted PG movie ever made!,"I defy anyone to predict the ending of this film. Considering that this was largely made by a males behind the camera, during the height of the ""women's movement"" in the early 70's, it really plays out as a cry for help by men who are powerless in the face of unleashed femininity. A classic!"
+16984,2,Another great helping of Chicken Soup,"I have yet to read a bad Chicken Soup book, and this one is no exception. The nice mix of stories make for an entertaining and interesting read, and there are life lessons to be gained from reading every single story.This book is not just for teens. Anyone who loves Chicken Soup type stories will enjoy this book. It tugs at the heart strings and is a book you'll want to re-read again and again."
+16985,2,Love this sewing machine,"I bought this machine as a total beginner and couldn't be happier with my choice. The computerized display is easy to read, the manual is super-helpful and easy to understand (having never touched a sewing machine before, I had this one set up and was sewing within 20 minutes of getting it out of the box just by referring to the manual), it's easy to thread - I love the needle threader & drop-in bobbin, it comes with a TON of accessories, and it sews beautifully. When I decided I wanted to learn how to sew, I figured I would buy an inexpensive sewing machine first, and then upgrade later to a better machine, hence this purchase...but I've been so impressed with all the features on this machine and the quality of the stitches it produces that I have a feeling I won't be needing to upgrade for many years. Would highly recommend the CS6000i!"
+16986,1,Straps for bike frame are useless,"After putting the unit on my 00 Toyota Solara for the first time and after placing my bike into the cradle, I proceeded to strap the bike's frame. Naturally one would want to fasten this securely. The plastic piece that the threading loops through immediately snapped. I put reasonable pressure on the thread as I pulled it through. This raises serious red flags on the integrity of this product over all. I'm going to attempt rigging it with bungee cable to see if I can create a much safer and secure method for transporting my bikes.Just be aware that these cables are useless. If it doesn't break when you get your bike secured in the cradle, then when? On the freeway, putting peoples lives at risk?"
+16987,1,Nice 'til it dies,"I really liked this compressor for the first year and a half. It was easy to move around or load into the truck and worked well enough for my needs. Then the regulator started leaking... The nearest authorized service center was 75 miles away so DeWalt sent me an O-ring kit. Two weeks later, when the kit finally arrived, and after 10 minutes to install it I was back in business.It's been less than a year since replacing the o-rings and I think the motor has burned up :( I AM REALLY DISSAPOINTED IN THIS COMPRESSOR! For the price I could have bought 2 of another brand.If you buy this to air up the kids bicycle tires, you will love it! If you have work to do, this would be a poor choice."
+16988,1,NOT ready for prime-time,"I tried THREE units, and each was DOA in some way, shape or form.The unit is supposed to auto-power on on a source signal. It didn't.The unit is supposed to power-on by pressing the two right-hand buttons simultaneously for 2 seconds. It didn't.The ONLY way I got power at all on any of these units, after swapping batteries, etc., was to plug it into the car adapter. this was fine, but the unit would loose it's settings the moment the car was shut off.If you can get one of these devices to actually function, they do a reasonably good job, though with medeocre quality, and limited range.But, until Belkin can remedy its quality control issues, I would avoid this product like the plague."
+16989,2,so far so good!,"I have this stroller for 2 months and so far I am pretty happy with it/I have used it in malls, airports,planes, beaches,parks /easy to use/easy to fold/good on bumby surfaces/stains come out/easy to carry/good 5-point harness/recline position is fine/small basket comes in handycanopy top is a bit flimsy but hey it is an inexpensive umbrella stoller.I plan on buying another to keep at Grandma's houseI bought this stroller in April 2005, it is now Dec 2006 and it is still in great shape!"
+16990,2,dazed and confused was not funny,"this one is though. yes it's dumb, it's a stoner film. the jokes will make you laugh. i was telling a co-worker about it, glad i remembered the name. i don't know who in 2010 is reading this thinking to buy it. so this is more for the ones who have already seen. but it is some good times, can't wait to see it again soon. if you haven't already, it's worth your time. THEY'RE KINGERS MAN"
+16991,2,Christian Antisemitism,Professor Nicholls has published a powerful book that reviews the myths of early Christianity and illuminates the historical Jesus (a practicing and faithful Jew who had no intention of starting a new religion) and the origins of Christian Jew hatred which evolved into the secular antisemitism that culminated in the Holocaust. Whew! Powerful material ... not for those whose inbred dogmas cannot stand up to rigorous critical thinking.
+16992,2,great read!,Ryan's Return was an easy read and very enjoyable. I have just started reading some of BF's books and I really like her work.
+16993,2,Pocket Guide to Identification of First Editions,"This latest edition of the Guide is bigger and better than ever, while remaining an actual ""pocket"" sized book. As always, it is an extremely helpful and easy-to-use tool for book collectors and sellers in determining the actual value of any book. Highly recommended."
+16994,2,Exploring the Strange Life of a Complex Word,"As someone who has spent nearly a decade writing about race relations in the U.S., I couldn't read this book fast enough.Kennedy offers a well-timed examination of a word that appears to be experiencing a revival of public usage. I didn't agree with all of his conclusions, but the book certainly provokes critical thought. I especially appreciated the section that lays out how the word has been considered by the U.S. courts.This book should be mandatory reading for all Americans. It is a worthy addition to any to high school or college social studies syllabus, and a good choice for book clubs that welcome heated debate."
+16995,2,Pleasant beverage but too expensive,"I liked this product, but I think it's too expensive. Just pour some juice in your seltzer water and it comes close enough."
+16996,2,My review and a Q regarding the negative reviews....,"I have just recently discovered Secret Garden and vastly enjoy their music. As I am new to their music and I have no other (yet) - this CD is perfect for me. I anticipate I will check track names (to avoid duplication if possible) on other albums, then purchase more of their lovely music. I do have a Q after reading a number of ""negative"" reviews in which were complaints that this CD is a disappointing compilation of previous releases. Am I unusual in that I ALWAYS read track names before purchasing any album? It is puzzling to me that a number complained that they discovered this was a compilation POST-purchase. I am thinking the clear resolution to avoiding such disappointment is to read relevant information FIRST. Just thinking aloud. (-:"
+16997,1,Defective DVD,Dvd was defective. I could only view about five minutes of it. Had to throw it away. Is there any way it could be replaced?
+16998,1,A gadget you can do without.,"This little gadget is difficult to use and once the herbs start to chop, the moisture from them sort of gums everything up. I made sure the herbs were dry but once the chopping starts, moisture from the inside of the leaves & stems release & it's just a mess."
+16999,2,Simply Brilliant,"As a self proclaimed Life of Agony junkie I have to say that I eagerly awaited this album..and I wasn't disappointed. Albeit lighter, not as thick and thrashy as River Runs Red and Ugly, this shows that LOA has talent. A must for all fans. ""Weeds"" has to be the most energizing song I have ever heard."
+17000,1,Undelivered Goods,"I did not get this product, it was supposed to be a christmas gift fro my husband, but unforunately it did not materialise ....Sad"
+17001,2,Would buy again. Stores a lot in a smaller space.,"A little tricky to put together. I needed a screwdriver for leverage. But very sturdy once assembled. Holds 50+ cans of beans, soup, gravy, fruit, tuna, etc. Great for those Costco runs. You will need a very TALL shelf."
+17002,2,Good Book for the Most Part but Possibly a Key Missing,"I found this book quite interesting. The author has some good answers to the questions and he does a tremendous job of defending the Pre-Tribulation Rapture. I strongly disagree, however, that the United States is Babylon in Revelation 18. The author needs to scrap that thinking."
+17003,1,One of the worst movies ever,"I picked this movie up hoping it would get my girlfriend and I in the holiday spirit. Unfortunately, it was a major letdown. What an absolutely disgusting portrayal of Santa Clause. I do not recommend this movie for children or for anyone else for that matter, as it missing all the things that make a good Christmas movie. I can't believe some of the gushing reviews. I expected a lot more based on the cast but I guess it's all about the script. Can't fault the actors for that. I shut this movie off after 10mins. No Christmas magic here folks. Stick with the classics."
+17004,1,Overdone,"The idea of a ghost telling their life from the ""afterlife"" is overdone. No less the creepiness of a suspense novel based on rape & murder, from the very girl's point of view, doesn't lend a poignancy to her abbreviated life, but seems to capitalize more on the ""mystery"" of her demise and the suspense as to whether anyone else will ""get it"" before he is caught. Blah!"
+17005,2,full tracks,1. El Tilingo Lingo~~~2. Camino de San Cristobal~~~3. Las Copetonas~~~4. Chiapas~~~5. La Negra~~~6. La Tortuga del Arenal~~~7. El Zopilote Mojado~~~8. El Pajaro Cu~~~9. Las Coronelas~~~10. El Ahuelulco.
+17006,2,Not bad Sardina.,"Michelle M has a great voice and on their earlier stuff (singles released on 45s) had alot more energy. This album is more mainstream, and toned down, with emotion - don't judge the band entirely on this album, though it's not bad. Saw them in Chicago a few times, and they had lots of potential, but watered down their music. Should have stayed with their earlier (pre-record deal) style, and they would've been around now. Michelle M has lots of talent, and I wouldn't be surprised if she resurfaced with her own band. I'd like to see the re-release of their singles on CD."
+17007,2,The Elph LT--A Small Camera for a Small Purse,"The Elph LT is a great camera, and it is the cheapest of the Elph series. Being cheap comes with a price, though. The ElphLT comes with hardly any features. Mainly, it is missing a zoom. If you have a little more money, I'd recomend the Elph, Elph Jr., or Elph2. Otherwise, Elph LT is an OK camera."
+17008,2,Great from beginning to end,"When was the last time you enjoyed every song on a CD? Acoustic Alchemy is aboutto change your mind about CD purchases! From beginning to end, every track grabs yourattention and excites one emotion or the other. Well versed, well timed, well written andvery well executed.In listening to this work of art, it is clear that this troupe had a great time producing this.Everyone whom I have shared this with has fallen for it, and I suspect - no - predict you will too!!I gave it 4 out of 5, only because I wanted more! Another 3-4 tracks like these would have beenperfect! I just have to wait for their next compilation!"
+17009,1,A Werewolf Book Without Any Claws Or Fangs!,"My Mother comes from the Black Forest in Germany where the Legend Of The Werewolf originated so I was hoping for a good read in this book but I was very disappointed. If you take away the elements of the Supernatural, the Graphic and Gratuitous Sex and the Extreme Violence all you are left with is this loser who falls in love with a crazy woman.That's all there is to this story and as an aside it also promotes unsafe sex if the woman is attractive enough which I think is highly irresponsible."
+17010,1,THE WORST!,Dont spend your money on this! The whole CD is horrible! Jessica has gone wayyy down hill with her music.
+17011,2,Suspenseful and entertaining!,"This is the third book in the Balefire series by Cate Tiernan, and the best so far. Maybe that's not true. All three are the best!Someone is still going after Clio and Thais and trying to kill them. They work a little spell to find out who, and it works, while almost killing themselves. It's a shocker when you find out who's behind all the madness, and even more of a shocker when you find out who is connected to the twins.I can't wait to read the final book in the series which comes out next year!"
+17012,2,About a face........,"This is one of the truly great films of all time and the soundtrack of this new edition makes it even more of a treasure. It is full of surprises, but the emotion and sheer triumph on the face of Renee Falconetti will linger in the mind for a long time. I am still as excited about this film as I was when I first saw it ten years ago."
+17013,2,My wedding Attire,I ordered these ties for my wedding. They were very well priced and the perfect color. I searched everywhere for the right color or even a close color and had no luck until I found these.
+17014,2,Flash Dance - CD,Flashdance: Original Soundtrack from the Motion PictureGreat music. This album has a history for me. I met a very overweight young woman who had to tend the family deli since her father was unwell.The aspirations of the woman in the story became her mantra. My friend was motivated enough to start college in the little free time she had with the goal of a degree in marketing - her passion.
+17015,2,Good Quality Wok,"The wok arrived today and am very pleased with the quality. As this is my first wok, I researched /shopped local Asian markets in the Austin, TX area but could only find machine made woks in the 16"" size. The machine made woks were thinner wall and didn't look to be of a robust assembly. I make those statements after comparison to the wok I purchased in which the higher quality was immediately evident after opening the package. I highly recommend this wok. The vendor also added some basic wok cooking utensils in the package and they were forthcoming with email information on shipment tracking and how to maintain the product, an A+ vendor."
+17016,2,Once again..Melissa and Doug have done it,"this is a wonderful sturdy product. I will say I have ONE concern which if you have only older kids it's not a big deal. The one issue is that some of the items like the cucumber and carrot have the rounded ends. This is PERFECTLY shaped for a throat. My little one has put these in her mouth and while I am always watching her sometimes when she is playing with my 6 yr old (who the toy was bought for) and ya just never know! I am so scared she is going to get this in her throat.Again, this is a wonderful toy but maybe they could have made it so that it looked lik it was already cut into.Melissa and Doug is a wonderful company who makes durable and sturdy toys that are built to last."
+17017,1,two things I hate about OS X,"1. The difference between OS X and OS 9 is greater than anticipated. I've been using Macs since 1987 and was a bit flummoxed at first. There's some non user friendly stuff you have to deal with. It's not like going from OS 7 to OS 8 or OS 8 to OS 9, where anyone reasonably Mac savvy can get acclimated quickly. OS X is way different, too different, and different in annoying nonMac ways. Yeah, think different, thank you Steve Jobs.2. Font rendering. Jaguar has smoothed fonts THAT YOU CANNOT TURN OFF ABOVE 12 PT TYPE. It is absurd that the Mac, supposedly the computer for creative media artists yada yada does not give you the option to turn off font smoothing altogether. Anyone who loves to read clear sharp text will not like this."
+17018,2,"Brilliant book, by a brilliant author","Michael Nelken gives us new insights into the man whose obsessions killed millions of people and changed the world forever. It is a profound book which should be read by anyone who wants to know more about Hitler, World War II or the in depth psychology of suicide and destruction."
+17019,2,Great Book!,"I have to say this is my first medical dictornary I have bought. I work in preauthorization in a medical facility and it comes in very handy. It's paperback and it's not too big so I can jsut it in my bag. Also ordering from Amazon, it cheaper and quick delivery to my door step. Great job Amazon!"
+17020,1,Ego on parade,"Oh my, where to begin! This author is less interested in telling a story than in trying to impress the reader with his ""brilliance"". Unfortunately, along with that effort should come substance. This novel is hollow. There is no story, simply ramblings. as if Stone sat down with a thesaurus and went through substituting fifty cent words for every plain word he could find. He would have been better served to have concentrated on a story. ""Damascus Gate"" is a ponderous, pedantic tome, and in the final analysis, terribly boring."
+17021,1,Broke after 2 months,"I would use it every once in a while and then it stopped working 90% of the time. Now when i try it, it shoots a blank."
+17022,1,"Boring, But You Must Read This Series","The first book in the Dark Tower Saga is definetly slow. It took me a long time to even get myself to read the book. I have to say, don't judge the series by this one book. You have to invest some to get the true value of this series. To this book I have 2 Stars, but the series deserves a 5. Give the series a chance, this first book is really short, and the second one really gets the ball rolling. I know it's asking a lot, but it is well worth it."
+17023,1,"One star too many, not worth any stars","I sent this product back. Awful. My lower back, shoulders, upper back and neck HURT for 3 weeks following the 3 or 4 times I attempted to use this product. Very high impact I would say. And the crazy thing kept creeping backward on the carpet, I would have to get off and reposition it after every 2 reps. Terrible product. I also didn't feel it was doing any good, for hips, buns or thighs. Just killed my back! Went to see my chiropractor the following day and the popping my back did, wow. Threw everything right out."
+17024,1,Dog Hated It,"The pills were hard to chew for my elderly pooch and they were hard to rip open to put on the food. Once I put it on the food, the smell was so bad that he refused to eat anything and I had to throw away the entire bowl."
+17025,2,My kid loves the Bossy Frog,"Our daughter was given this album for the holidays and she loves it. She listens to it over and over, alone, and with her friends. They dance around and have a great time. We've even taken her to see Jeffrey perform The Bossy Frog in NYC. We highly recommend this album."
+17026,1,When the movie ended the fun began,"Seriously, the best part of this movie is when the credits roll. That's when Erasure's ""STOP!"" kicks in, a raucous song that will have you up and on your toes.I tuned in and out of this movie when it was on HBO, it never really held my attention. Sure there were some cute actors and actresses who were stripping down now and then but the whole movie was just bizarre. I kept watching though because I was bored. Finally this piece of junk ended and my favorite band started singing.Instead of buying this, just go buy any one of Erasure's great albums instead. More bang for your buck."
+17027,2,Funny and though provoking.,IMHO Over the Hedge is the best comics strip out today. This is the one I don't want to miss. My only displeasure is that they no longer produce these collections. Join the suburban critters in this second collection.
+17028,1,"Judge Knott, Where Are you?","As a big fan of Maron's Judge Knott series, I was very much looking forward to Last Lessons of Summer. Unfortunately, it was a real disappointment. A trite, contrived plot with stick figure characters---nothing at all like the quality of the Judge Knott series."
+17029,1,Not waterproof!!,"This is my 3rd winter with these boots. In that time I've only worn them a total of about 30 days. The product page for this boot on the Sorel website uses the word waterproof no less than five times. These boots are NOT waterproof. After a ten minute walk through slushy snow yesterday my feet were wet. I'm not wearing the boots today because they're still wet inside. As another reviewernoted, if I wanted to wear leaky chinese-made boots I could have paid a lot less."
+17030,2,really touched my heart,"This book is one you cannot put down, so well written. A very good book for women and men alike"
+17031,1,The PC version has serious gameplay issues,"I've heard good things about the PS2 version of M2k2, but the PC version has serious gameplay issues.Namely, the defensive secondary is nonexistent. 500-600 yard games from 3rd string QBs with bad offensive linemen and poor receivers are the order of the day. You could assemble a team of All-Star defensive players and pit them against the worst NFL Europe team and their 3rd string QB, and I guarantee you the NFL Europe team's QB will throw for over 350 yards and a QB rating over 100. They'll probably lose, but the scores in M2k2 games are very, very high. 65-54 is NOT an unusual score. I've tried every fix imaginable, and nothing helps. If EA patches this big problem, this could be a great game. The graphics are much better than last year's version."
+17032,1,Tuskeegate history deserves better,"I was so looking forward to seeing this movie and was really disappointed. I had such high hopes for this movie that the let down was partly because the movie was so poorly directed. I was most offended by the producer/director using 1940's jive talking and making these great air men look like idiots. If it hasn't had subtitles, it would have been difficult to understand the actors. I am white and I respect the Tuskeegee air men who finally had their chance to make a difference during World War II. I can't help but wonder how these good actors felt delivering these corny out dated lines; they must have been offended as well. The Tuskeegee air men were a credit to our country, their race, all their awards earned and they deserved to be recognized as the excellent air men that they were."

+17034,1,No real help.,I bought this book when I was in my junior year of college and it was just confusing the topic even more. I found Statistics for the Utterly Confused much more helpful.
+17035,2,The Therapist's Toolbox,"This book is very handy with quick, easy, and useful ideas for therapy sessions and class presentations.[ASIN:0761922644 The Therapist's Toolbox: 26 Tools and an Assortment of Implements for the Busy Therapist]]ons."
+17036,2,Laugh out loud funny,"Every mother will recognice all the feelings, if not the actual incidents, described in this book. We've all had them, but only Ms Newman had the skill and wit to write them all down, validate our collective hysteria in those early years, and make us roar with laughter at it all. There are twenty years of this madness ahead of her and I'm looking forward to reading about it (hopefully!) in her future writing."
+17037,1,The book has the quality of Spaghettios,The idea of a religious spoof intrigued me. The book itself was unreadable. Totally assinine. Waste of money.
+17038,1,It is functional...,"Well, I'm not terribly impressed with this metal rotary grater. Yes, it will grate cheese, but the gap between the drum and compartment that holds the cheese is a little over 1/4 of an inch. This allows for the cheese to get 'gummed' up and eventually that large wad just falls through. Also, for harder cheeses this means you're constanty picking out chunks of cheese that should have been grated.I've yet to find a rotary grater I'm happy with. I've broken several plastic models within 2 days of owning them. While I've yet to break this metal model, it just doesn't perfrom very well. I'm still using my stand-up grater."

+17040,2,A Valuable Resource for Historians,"This is the most thoroughly researched biography of Butch Cassidy ever written. If you're looking for the facts, this is the place to find them. Patterson's experience as a lawyer has made him admirably skeptical, and he does his best to sort through the many conflicting accounts of Cassidy's life and death."
+17041,1,BORING!!!,"This book was so boring that I could not finish it. I am an avid reader and found this book to be one of the most boring books I've come across. Maybe I'm missing something, but I was so bored."
+17042,2,Good Value,This is a nice addition to my kitchen. It makes freezing cut up vegetables alot easier. I havent tried it for cheese yet.
+17043,1,Not great for my problem,"I bought this to help with fibromyalgia and it hasn't helped. The guy at GNC said it's a very low potency and I could actually take 5 at one time. So, the next time I switched to a 50 billion probiotic b/c this just isn't good enough for the pain I'm in daily."
+17044,2,Works well for power strips,"This cover works well for my power strips -- all the ones in my house fit. Also, I like that it doesn't matter how big the plugs are that you have in the power strip, it holds them (those large converter plugs that won't fit is so many child proof products fit fine in this one.My child is 10 months and hasn't messed with these yet, so I can't say how they will hold up with a larger toddler. However, I was concerned she'd try to put her hand in the slot that cords come out of and that hasn't happened yet. You still have to manage how the cords coming out of this cover are child-proofed. There is some space to roll up excess slack and stuff it into the cover."
+17045,2,good book,Really great story. Stanley isn't the best writer in the world but that is ok. his story is very thought provoking. i highly recomend
+17046,1,Minion (A Vampire Huntress Legend),"I have to say that I went out and bought the whole collection of these books. I am a fan of Anne Rice, Anne Bishop, Charlaine Harris, Kim Harrison, Laurell K. Hamilton, etc... So I thought this would be another good series to read. I've never been so disappointed. The writting is mediocre at best. I feel they would have been appropriate for teenagers if there was less sex. The plots are weak, the characters are one dimensional, and the themes are repetitive. They are shallow overall. I wish that I would have just bought one and not wasted my money on the whole collection."

I have spent far too much time trying to get this thang to work and it isn't happening. Get another product that's easier to work with and actually is compatible with XP, if that's your operating system."
+17051,2,a great way to spend a rainy day,"i liked this book cause it was different from others i've read.

Very few nude or provocative shots. Was this someone's first intermediate school photo project? I am going to delete Nan Goldin's name from my hard drive.

+17057,1,"Nice watch, bad clasp",The what overall is pretty nice. Skagen is a good quality watch. the problem with this one is the clasp. It's difficult for a peron to use the clasp and it doesnt always lock when you think it's snapped in. This clasp is very inferior and causes the watch to fall off sometimes. Not very happy with the overall quality.
+17058,1,Can't believe I bought this,"One word for this cd: HORRIBLE. I tried to listen to this four times and hated it more with each play. I can't begin to tell you how awful this cd is. I was reading the 5 star reviews on here with bewilderment. Then one of these reviews calls this 'the anti- Beatles' and this person goes on to say the Beatles are hated. It makes sense now. If you hate great music, you'll love this cd. If you love great music, you'll hate this cd."
+17059,1,Not a CD,"This is not a CD. It is an ""Enhanced CD"" which means it wants to run a software program in order to be heard on your computer. After all the mess Sony caused with software 'enhanced' CDs, I am very upset with my purchase. I thought I was buying a music CD, not a software progam that plays music and does who knows what else to my computer. If I can find a way to send this back I will.I listened to the song on a regular radio, and its pretty good. If you only use a radio, then this will be fine for you."
+17060,2,A book worth owning,"I first found out about this book at the library. After utilizing its teachings for 3 weeks, I knew that I needed to own a copy. The practice is useful and the descriptions/explanations are just right. I am proud to own this book."
+17061,2,"Of Course, Flashman was there!","The Charge of the Light Brigade, a memorable even when people are unsure what war it was part of (The Crimean War), is the event this time that Flashman is unlucky enough to be part of. Along the way he serves as a mentor to Queen Victoria's cousin, who does not have Flashman's luck in battle, is captured by, actually surrenders to, the Russians and then through a series of impossible circumstances ends up saving the British Raj from destruction by the Russians. In this final battle, Flashman shows an incredible reservoir of courage that is amazing to witness and as I am sure a regular reader of this character realizes, is impossible to believe. This one's classic Flashman with Fraser in fine form with solid history mixed in with some of the more ridiculous aspects that make these books enjoyable."
+17062,1,"Too tiny, too thin","This is quite small and is composed mainly of images (painting: details of painting: further details of painting etc.). For me the text was actually the interesting part of the publication; quotes and contemporary commentary and criticism of beauty and fashion pair with each reproduced image to emphasize and explain the fashions shown in the painting to a modern viewer. As interesting as the quotes are, they are the only text in the book and I believe any general art history book would give the reader a far deeper appreciation for the context of the painting. Rather than purchasing this book, look for publications of the pencil drawings and portraits of artistis like Ingres for beautifully rendered contemporary costume."

+17065,2,Long awaited prized possesion,"I have been waiting it seems like forever for this much beloved series to see the light of day. I hope many more people will experience the delight that my son and I shared laughing our asses off watching this brilliant combination of slapstick and genius. Rik and Ad are so talented and funny and the fluffs are a peek into the gentle,sweet men behind the characters, you can see in a split second when they slip out of character during the out takes that these guys are nothing like the characters they portray on screen and just what brilliant actors they are. I can't recommend this series more strongly. I have seen these shows more times than I can count and laugh just as hard every time. Buy it with confidence that you will view it again and again with increasing enjoyment."

At the 3 month mark, I started seeing grey lines going horizontally across the screen. If there are effective adjustments to fix this problem, I have not come across it. The manual mentions several adjustments to try but none seem to work. With the multiple horizontal grey lines going across my screen, I find the monitor to be almost useless. I have model 9410e."
+17069,2,Wonderful!,"Every Little Step is a superlative documentary that took me back to all those years I spent in dance studios in New York, and all the dancers that I knew. Some went on to tremendous success, and some packed it in for more mundane jobs in the real world. The struggle to be the best that I could be touched every aspect of my life.Every Little Step is much more than a ""making of"" documentary. It's the story of our lives, even if you've never danced a step. Brilliant."
+17070,1,question of demographics,"When I was in my teens, I loved this album. I recently decided to get it again as I had left it behind about the time I really started to get into rock music. I'm a sucker for special edition versions and was delighted that Paula Abdul's Spellbound had a limited edition counterpart. I was a little disappointed to receive it and discover that it was simply packaged as a make-up kit. I'm sure if I were a girl, I would be giddy over it. As it is, it is an embarrassment to my masculinity to have this copy on my music rack for all to see.For what it is, the music is great. Every song sounds just as good as I remember it. Just don't let my friends see it... I'll never live it down."
+17071,1,Very disappointing,"I don't usually leave bad reviews but this book is just too hyped-up. I've had these books for about 10 year and never got to them until last week - what a disappointment. I have only read the first one so far but it's off to a really bad start. I don't like her writing style all that much, it seems clunky and cumbersome at times and the main character was not very likable. The plot's fine with a couple of good surprises but the end is a total cliffhanger - stopped right in the middle of a very important scene. I peeked ahead into the 2nd book and the scene is not res"

If you appreciate Joan Didion's view of the Sixties, you will find much to mull over here. If your vision of the Sixties is founded on peace and love, you may want to look elsewhere for inspiration."
+17073,1,Didn't work for me,"I bought this pan because my cat squats right inside the door to her regular covered litter pan, hangs her bottom over the edge, and pees on the floor. I bought a pan with a high side but she still can't keep everything inside. I hoped the Clevercat design would prevent spillover, but Ginger just bypassed the middle step and peed directly on the floor when confronted with this product. I tried it both with the top off and on, and it didn't seem to make any difference. It looked like a good idea, it just didn't work with my cat. FWIW, she's sixteen years old - a younger cat might take to it more readily."
+17074,1,The Nutcracker On Steroids,"I am not a music or ballet connoisseur, so when I saw a high number of good reviews for this version of the nutcracker, that was good enough for me. I hear The Nutcracker on the public broadcast station every year, and I guess I was hoping for something remotely similar. This version is, like other reviewers say, SOOOoo fast. The songs that I love to hear, I am actually cringing. Also, it seems to be missing subtlety..that beautiful touch. So, I guess if you've never heard The Nutcracker before, you might like it for what it is. But, if you want it to resemble the ballet, or what you hear on the radio - look somewhere else. I'm going to make sure the next one I buy is at least 2 cd's long."

+17079,2,A great book,"Robert Cormier did a great job on writing this book. ""I am the Cheese"" is a great book that makes you think which you don't encounter often. It is full of suspense and drama. It is confusing at times but at the end it all comes together. The book was so interesting it was hard to stop reading. My favorite part is at the end when the title comes into play. I would recommend this book to any mature reader who likes suspense and drama."

+17083,1,Very dissapointed,"I bought this on the rave reviews here at Amazon. I really like the look and feel of the Thermos, and it kept my coffee warm for hours. However it has a tendency to leak when drinking from it, at the connection where the screw-on lid meets the mug. The result is a mess and possible coffee on your shirt."

If it were not for the winter being in full effect when I recieved this book, it would have never been finished. I found it to be a few pages of riviting action surrounded by hundreds of pages of disjointed boring babble that ultimately had little to do with the overall story. It got so bad that by the end I would not have been surprised if John Wayne himself led the cavalry charge. This book rates a very weak three based on the insight into the moties, and for the talent of the writers, even though it wasn't used here. Rewrite!"
+17088,1,it should have stayed in the dark where it belongs,"The most boring fantasy book I met during the last 5-6 years. The jacket and some descriptions promised much so I bought it. Managed to drag myself through about 150 pages but finally had to stop as I realized that I literally had to force myself to read some more of that ""masterpiece"".Action is scarce. Writing is primitive and descriptive. I love the authors who create new and fascinating worlds but a good idea did not work this time. Instead of showing the life, the world, the universe, the author just keeps telling you what you should see and what you should think on seeing it.2 stars because the original idea is not bad, otherwise I would have given it just one."

It is the lucky man that will grasp this grand plot of life. No greater honor to your family could be afforded than to ultimately understand it.

+17092,1,did not like,"I found the plot of this book to be choppy and not very well connected. Maybe it's just me, but I didn't like it at all. The characters are a little unrealistic, and I was disappointed. If you like this type of book about Vikings, great, but if not, it's not a very good read."

This film couldn't have anything less to do with the rest of the series, and clearly had the name tacked on at the last minute for publicity. No Santa Claus. No Christmas killing spree. No Fun. Instead, it plays closer to THE WICKER MAN or THE LAIR OF THE WHITE WORM. Only badly. The confused plot even has the lead fantasize about giant bugs before transforming into one herself? And for no better reason than to show off more of Screaming Mad George's gruesome creature effects. Clint Howard takes over for Eric Freeman and Bill Moseley in a throwaway role as ""Ricky Caldwell,"" if you can even call him that. Another terrible sequel.-Carl ManesI Like Horror Movies"
+17096,2,difficult workout,This DVD is a difficult workout and was way to strenuous for an in shape middle- aged woman. It is geared for a younger woman.
+17097,2,Overrated,"Half this album's allure, at the time and historically, stems from the cover.Many of the songs, Lovely Rita, Good Morning, Fixing a Hole, She's Leaving Home, are not that strong. The title song sounds like a [bad] version of Drive My Car.Only Lucy in the Sky and Day in the Life are enduring classics. If they hadn't adorned the album with weird sounds and a fantastic cover, it might have been panned like Magical Mystery Tour, which in many ways is a stronger album."
+17098,1,"I liked the backcover blurb, but...","This book was romantic drivel. It made me think it was pulled directly from the pages of an early 1970s Harlequin. While wonderful at the time, this book will leave today's modern romance reader cold. Latter Day Saints, this is a book you can sink your teeth into."
+17099,2,Not sure,"This bokken has a good feel to it but it's much lighter than the other one that I boughtSingle 40"" Dragon Datio Bokken Kendo Practice Sword.The guard is nice, but it's not like the one pictured, it is a simple rubber band type that does not extend outwards on to the guard as shown. Also, the color on the one I received is much different. It is darker, like a wooden desk with varnish, but I still like it. Maybe it's just the seller, who knows: [...]Here are the dimensions, the hilt is 10"" (0.25"" more than the Dragon bokken), and the blade is 28"" (1"" less than the Dragon bokken), with an overall length of 38.25"" (Dragon bokken is 39"", an inch shorter than the advertised length)."

This is a great band! If you like Jimmy Eat World or The Ataris, you should really own this CD because Ethyline is better than both of 'em! Powerful guitars, great singing, great songs and just a really good band. I highly recommend this CD."
+17101,2,marvel nemisis,"Its a pretty fun game, the graphics are good, the characters are simple, and the fighting arena is almost all destructible; in multiplayer mode. The only flaws are the fact that in single player mode the levels are really easy to beat, and that the characters have almost all the same moves, so there's no surprises. But overall it's a pretty fun game."

No smearing of the text or over saturation of ink that bleeds through to other pages and the ink dries almost instantly which is nice.The chisel tip is great and personally I prefer it because it allows me to highlight small text with ease.The addition of a pocket clip is nice. It not only allows you to clip it to your pocket, papers, etc., it prevents the marker from rolling off the desk.I did have to take 1 star off of this set for one reason, price. You can get many other brands of highlighters that work just as well for half this price.No cap to fiddle with just click, mark, click, really can't get any easier than that.Pros:Great vibrant colors!Does not bleed through as badly as other brands of highlighters.Chisel tip allows for precise marking.One handed operation.Cons:Price."

In just under 300 pages you are given an amazing prospective of Meena's life, courage, and beliefs. I truly believe this book could be a key point in demolishing ignorant wide spread opinions about the innocent people, especially women, in the Middle East in our countries time of crisis."
+17106,1,Very Dissapointing!!,"This album doesn't even compare to Sparkle and Fade. This was much more easy listening. Songs like ""I Will Buy You a New Life"" and ""Father of Mine"" got really annoying after the first couple of times that I heard them. The band should go back to their old ways of Sparkle and Fade."
+17107,1,Priests and confessionals,"I must admit I have not read the book but I was appalled at the story line. I don't know how well Ms. Garwood researches material for her novels but one inviolable fact that most Christians, specially Catholics, know is that what a priest hears in confession is NEVER repeated, NO MATTER WHAT. I'm sure somewhere, sometime, a priest has broken a confessional vow but most probably under very extreme circumstances and would probably involve permission from very high ranking church officials, if allowed at all. I cannot conceive of a priest running and telling a best friend what someone has confessed even if that would allegedly endanger a life. A reader in Connecticut who did read the book and critiqued it, is also critical of the actions of the FBI agents. I will borrow this book from the library mainly to see how and if she justifies the priest's actions."
+17108,1,Stay away from this one!,"This router is about the worst I have owned. Will not hold the signal. Went to belkins website and downloaded the new firmware were it also had a bulletin that said if you experience frequent dropped signals you are supposed to change the channel. Did that, still drops signal. Called Belkin and they had me switch everything back to factory settings. When I said your website says that this is the problem I was told ""You not need to worry sir"" Ya great. Well its going out to the garage now to see if my hammer will fix it. Wish I had that $100+ back."
+17109,1,Politically Biased,"While this book purports to be an unbiased account of the foster care system and its impact on African-American children, it fails miserably. The author is biased against the system from the very beginning, and presents only stories that back her view of the system. There are definitely issues with the foster care system including: overworked case managers, lack of funds, inability to assist children in an appropriate fashion 100% of the time. Certainly there is a racial issue since the majority of children in foster care and up for adoption are minorities, but is this because of the foster care system itself or are we missing a major piece in the puzzle? It is this missing piece that is missing from Ms. Roberts' book."

+17111,2,A wonderfully vivid extended family story,"The Queen of Persia refers to the matriarch of a rural midwest family fifty or so years ago. If you enjoy a book that is at least equally concerned with its moments as it is with where it is going, then this book will probably be good for you. It has been over two years since I read this book and I can still see and feel what Joan Chase wrote ... the overall atmosphere and setting as well as the individuals involved."
+17112,1,"No improvement over the original, no worse either","If you already have the original cut of the SG-1 pilot on DVD as part of a season set, don't bother buying this one. If you don't have it and don't want to buy a whole season, go ahead and get this one.Apart from removing the brief nude scene (whether that's an improvement or not is up to you) the changes are so trivial that they just make no real difference at all. The new special effects are well done, but the original special effects were just as good. It's interesting to see the extra lines of dialog here and there (none are whole new scenes, just fragments of scenes) but makes little overall difference.In summary: it's slightly different from the original but not in any way that makes it better, worse, or worth having both in your library. I give it two stars against the overstated promise of real differences."
+17113,1,Black Boy,"This book was assigned to my nephew as part of his 11th grade reading curriculum. I picked it up because he kept complaining about it's content and how boring it was. As I began reading, I was quite engrossed by Richard Wright's vivid recollections of his life and the pain he had experienced. However, the more I read, the harder I found it to believe that he could so exactly remember so many episodes of his life in such great detail that had happened to him at such a young age. The more I read, the more the book became like a work of fiction and less like an autobiography.I cannot begin to imagine the pain and suffering that life in the early south brought about, but for Richard Wright there seemed to be no kind of happiness. As the book progressed the initial interest I had in Richard Wright's story waned due to his constant whining against not only the whites but his family, and the belief that he was superior everyone around him."
+17114,2,Saved my dog!,"She is a four year old rescue. Had major surgery for digestion problems and would not eat after the surgery. I add a spoonful to her hard food and she eats it all! Her digestion had never been better. It does stink, so store in a really sealed container. I gave it to my pet sitter for her aging golden and he loved it and has more energy. This really saved my dog. She is happy, has her energy back and is her old self again."

+17116,1,Gross me out!,"If you need hints on how to be blatently rude in the name of ""my day"" to those most dear to you, this is your book. It contains no ideas for gowns, flowers, cakes, or other ways to personalize a wedding. It seems to exist only as an excuse to legitimize bad bridal behavior. My copy is now in the trash."
+17117,1,Bad Buy,"I got this on the hope of hearing some actually scary stories. Instead, I got a bunch of drivel that isn't even suitable for children.The only slightly interesting one was Transformation, but even it lacked any real story line (and the ending was laughable). The others where just inane in general with their plots, imagery, and readings."

They are going on a voyage to the end of the world of Narnia and in search for 7 lords that were cast away by Marza. On this daring voyage they come across many forsaken lands and wonderful adventures while they sail on the Dawn Threader to the end of Nairnia
+17119,1,Don't believe the hype,"After reading all the rave reviews for these I thought I just had to have them. When they arrived I anxiously tore the package open expecting to hear a big difference in sound. What I found was an awkwardly big earbud sleve that was a very stiff rubber (almost plasticy)They did not feel right in my ears at all, and the sound was lacking. Maybe it's just my ears but I find that the original gray rubber sleves that my e3s came with is far superior to these in both comfort and sound."
+17120,1,The ultimate BS,"What a joke. Isn't there enough BS permeating the atmosphere to blow it up any further with a philosophical analysis of the substance? It reminds me of an incident a long time ago when a friend ordered me to analyze the psychological reasons for my being hungry. I ate, and I was fine. (At 120 pounds, I didn't see much of a problem in that solution.) Does that make me unintellectual? Since I am a teacher and a writer, I have the funny feeling that I can plead innocent to that charge.I would, however, like to award Prof. Frankfurt TEN stars for discovering that there is, indeed, money in education after all. Anyone who can peddle this mini-dribble for a price and get away with it has truly found the secret of economic life in today's BS world."
+17121,1,You dont need it,"I dont see the point in this, the Mighty bright LED light lasts a lifetime because it uses L.E.D. therefore you will not need replacement. Besides that the product photo of this ""replacement bulbs"" show ordinary light bulps, not LED !!!"
+17122,1,A hard to read book,"The subject of the book is extremelly interesting and the author seems to know what he is talking about. However, I cannot recommend this book. The author presents it as a divulgative book for begginners. However, beginners will hardly take any advange of it because of the deep matters involved and the unnecessarily technical language he used. He made the mistake to write a divulgative book using the same language he would do in a scientific paper. I am afraid average readers will find it hard to read and will probably not survive the introductory chapters."
+17123,1,Pop goes the memory card!!,"Thanks to this shoddy product, almost twenty hours of Final Fantasy IX gameplay went out the window. Nothing else really puts a nice look on your face like a 'data corrupted' error. Don't by this card."
+17124,1,Didn't hold my interest,"I rented this some months ago and am now trying to remember it. It did not hold my interest, had a hard time staying awake, kept waiting for something to happen. The characters all seemed rather cardboard and the plot did nothing to get me hooked and wanting to seem more. I would not buy this or any other Berserk DVD, I would not even rent the rest."
+17125,1,An insult to Bat - Fans!,"The ridler only tells one riddle. Two-face has only one personality. This movie is just a reminder of how superior the FOX cartoon series of ""Batman"" is to this empty-headed junk. On a daily basis, the cartoon series has ten-times better writing than this overbudgeted drivel."
+17126,1,Oh Please!,"This is the third Henley novel I have read, and I have yet to find one in comparison to the first one I read, ""A Year and a Day"". I was disappointed in this book, I found the main character Sean, too unbelievable at times--going around thinking in his head he is the prince of darkness? PLEASE! I felt the sex scenes were borderline porn, and they were written in for the sake of....? Even though I got this secondhand at a bookstore I felt robbed, I will be taking this one back to exchange for a different one, thats for sure. Im almost ready to swear off Virginia Henley, if I can't find one that compares to ""A Year and a Day"" soon."
+17127,2,Hard Core DH Fans should read this book,I first want to say that I love Kenyon's DH books. I don't believe she has written a bad DH book. With that being said this book was a transitioning book. Kenyon used Dark side of the Moon to help set up for her stories about Ash. I didn't feel that she did Ravyn and Susan justice. The Romance was very lacking.If you are I hard core DH fan(like me)then you really need to read this book. It will answer question and you will have a better understanding of future plots.(I think so anyway) However I would not spend the money on a hard back book. I would wait until it come out in paper. You are not missing anything important.
+17128,1,a little disappointed,"I felt a little disappointed after having read all the reciepes and such. I was looking for a story. The story was good but not Francines best work. Her Mark of the Lion series, Voice in the wind, An echo in the darkness ect. had me on my knees several times petitioning Our Lord to have a spirit like the character Haddesa. Those books showed the world for what it truly is but also gave us the hope that can only come from being in obedience to God."

It was here that Friends of the Earth began - where the world was introduced to Marshall McLuhan. They even did some legendary advertising. Jeff Goodby wrote the intro - Stan Freberg contributed a piece - if you love what advertising could be, you just might like this book."

+17134,1,Steering Wheel Controller,"I still haven't gotten this thing to work. Whomever said this was easy to install told a lie. The instructions was very unclear and I had to go online to find my truck for the preparation configuration and still was confused.I would recommend you go to a professional installer and purchase it there and let them install it, b/c now I am going to have to have them do it for me and that means more money being spent!"
+17135,2,"Very believable, very unique story",This movie is great because it doesn't follow any standard formula. It is filmed on location and is visually pleasing. The glimpse of life deep in the swamp it reveals is compelling. It is spooky.
+17136,2,The MOST FUN you can buy for under $20!!!,"This is the best album I've heard in years. Of the 3 BSO disks this one is on top (with the first one a close second). Since I got this disk I've been getting to work in a GREAT MOOD! My favorite is THIS OLD HOUSE, but the whole album is terrific...I envy Brian Setzer - he's doing what he loves, making money at it, and it sounds like he's having a BLAST!"

+17139,1,Messier than whats floatin' in your toilet !!!,"I could not sit through this mess. As a matter of fact I begged my friend to stop the bootleg and gouge out my eyes with a serving spoon. That seemed like a better alternative than trying to sit through this wretched film. TI sounded as if he was reading his lines off the back of his hands while the writing was smudged. The other ""actors"" performances were abysmal as well. And the only question that I have is whose decision was it to cast Jason Weaver as one of TI's best friends and where did they dig that tired fool up from ? They must have paid him in Jolly Ranchers.To sum up, this film was a hot ""volcanic"" mess and I would have rather spent two hours wading through dirty baby diapers than be subjected to this mess again. Please avoid this movie like the plague."
+17140,2,Big hit,"Literally. My girls (and my husband) love building towers and then knocking them down. My 3 year old loves to find patterns in which sides she lines up. I do wish it was made of something a little sturdier than cardboard, but then it might be too heavy, so it's a fine compromise."
+17141,1,Computer mixed or not....,"This mix isn't anything to get excited about. It showcases one track in my opinion and that track is F--K Sonnet. The rest of the tracks are bland and lack character. I notice a lot of users commenting on the fact that it is computer mixed versus live on turntables. Computer mixing is a skill in itself as well, the capabilities of turntables these days makes them almost like using a computer. DJs have the ability to look at a waveform using tables just as easily as on a computer these days, and with Final Scratch most DJ racks are becoming more computerized. So I honestly don't think the equipment used effected this mix, it's just a bit boring and does nothing to grab the listener's attention. Considering the pioneering choice of equipment, this mix could have tried to be a lot more adventurous. As it stands this is one to skip. Like someone mentioned before, I will be awaiting a Steve Lawler Bedrock compilation."
+17142,2,Luvvedit!,"My wife originally asked me to order the CD as I was not a bigfan of this particular artist. However, when I slipped it in theCD Player for her, I was astonished at the quality of the re-cording and the talent of the artist. I guess I had forgotten..."
+17143,2,A Real Lesson that can be applied to life,"Snow White-a tale of terror isn't just a tale that is merely entertainment. This tale actually teaches you about life. It's very real, dark and hopeful at the same time. I loved Lili and her courage to defeat the evil stepmother. I liked how it was a battle between good and evil. I think it has a lot to teach about vanity, jealousy, and deception. Not to forget, LOVE. Real Love! Lili was a courageous character and I aspire to be like her."
+17144,1,No kick stand,This bike is what my man wanted for christmas in 07 and i got it and would you believe it didn't come with a kick stand; so now i have to take it to a bike shop and have them to put one on it. You would think for the money i paid for this bike it would automatic come with a kick stand but i guess i thought wrong on this one.
+17145,2,"Informative, consise and fun to listen to!","This is just one of several titles in the ""Instant Genius"" audiotape collection, and like all others is an excellent and consise recap of interesting topics. The tapes are superbly written, well-narrated and very educational. You'll learn a lot without information overload, and it's fun to share and pass on your new knowledge to friends, colleagues, etc. The tapes also make terrific gifts. I highly recommend not just stock market, but all of the ""Instant Genius"" titles for quick knowledge!"
+17146,1,A huge letdown,"The game is full of bugs and little/no communication is being given from SOE as to the status of fixes.The quests in the game only take you to level 30 and there are 90 levels. So after achieving level 30 get ready for a long, tedious grind.Normal items do not decay and all have pretty much similar stats so there is not much diversity in the way of crafters.My advice is to save your money and buy WoW instead."

+17148,2,Dryly humorous and very readable.,A funny look at one couple's attempt to resettle in a different culture with little forewarning. They were amazingly resilient and resourceful.
+17149,1,what happened to the old Rob?,"Lately it seems like Rob Zombie has lost alot of his grit, this album sounds a lot like a Black Sabbath album or something of that nature. I absolutely loved Hellbilly Delux, and Sinister Urge was all right, but Rob has really gone downhill in my opinion. A lot of the tracks on here are boring and uninspired, Let it All Bleed out is all right, but I would take any track from Hellbilly over it. BRING BACK THE OLD ROB ZOMBIE!!!!!"
+17150,1,I thought I would enjoy this book ~,"When I first starting reading this book, I knew it was made into a movie as I was reading it then I remember I did see the movie. I think I would have love this book if the plot was different, I couldn't get pass the fact that, Maggie fell in love with her first love's son it wasn't the age difference, I wouldn't mind if she fell in love with a younger guy not having nothing to do with her first love son's sorry this book didn't do it for me."
+17151,1,Try for a better copy,"I bought this copy some time back and was very disappointed to find it crammed in the disc. The first part giving the title, actors and actress were cut out and at the end the simbolic showing of the white horse was also edited. This is a great movie thats hard to find and should have been presented in it's full original form. Keep checking for a better copy than this Asian copy."
+17152,2,I like all of the Clarks shoes I have ever worn.,I ordered this as a replacement for a pair I wore out. It took me several years to go through the first pair. These feel good but may not be as sturdy as my old ones. I'm going to give them a few miles test walk then may go up to the 5 stars.
+17153,1,No Pronuciation Key or Appendix,"This book does take a slow, step by step approach to learning vowels and letters, but it lacks a key or appendix with a pronunciation guide. I found it hard to know whether or not I was reading or pronouncing the lessons correctly. This made using the book difficult and frustrating."
+17154,1,"Hugrs 50""ball","Santa brought this ball to my children this Christmas to replace the Bigens ball they had for years - which died of old age. This Hugrs ball was a complete waste of money. It bounced against a bush the first visit outside and was ripped apart.Our old Bigens, which I can no longer find, lived in our yard, through extreme heat and frequent cold temperatures for years, and was a delight to my kids. I would NOT recommend this for children and/or outside use."
+17155,1,Not impressed,"I can't say that I found this to be life changing. Self-serving would be more appropriate. For someone whom has a deep affiliation and so called understanding of Kenyans, I find it hard to believe that there was not and has not been a mention of aparteid. Watch The Rising Son if you need a reminder. Not only is there poverty and socialist ideals, there are grand scale MURDERS."
+17156,2,Upbeat and fun to listen to with catchy lyrics!,"The song ""I feel like singin' along"" has an upbeat pace similar to Hank Williams Jr style, and a hint of Merle Haggard with well-thought-out lyrics...I certainly like to sing along!! Even though I personally prefer upbeat tunes such as the above-mentioned, and ""Runaway Cadillac"", and many more, the song ""Big in the Heart"" seems truly from the heart, and is very enjoyable. I'm now a great fan of this artist! Jenneye Shugar drcoffee@kdi.com"
+17157,1,Disappointing.,"What a disappointment. No voice, predictable plot, nothing even remotely compelling. And I loved his other books. Bleh. I never lost the sense that Mitch Albom was writing story and manipulating my heart strings. Didn't work."
+17158,1,Disappointing musically,"Her voice is, of course, beautiful. The arrangements, however, were blah, bland, and boring. It felt to me like she was just putting in her time, without actually putting any emotion or style into it. I had thought that it was a given for an Anne Murray CD to be good. I was wrong. I wouldn't have bought them if I had heard them first. Very disappointing."
+17159,1,Ridiculous,"Mr. Gore obviously has not taken into account an accurate - and unbiased - view of the scientificic evideince on the subject. I would write more, but it is a waste of time given Mr. Gore's obvious policical, and frankly inadequatate and misleading, perspective on the subject... Ridiculous and not worth your hard-earned money. If you would like more objective, and entertaining, information I suggest ""State of Fear"" by Michael Crichton."
+17160,2,an all time great...,"To many hamsun readers this one will seem to be quite a departure for Hamsun, as it is an urban tale centering around a bohemian clique, rather than the usual tale of the Norwegian peasantry. As I know only those that are already Hamsun fans will ever read this, let it suffice to say that this book is as good as any of his works (even Pan), so hurry up and get a copy..."
+17161,2,Nice strong coffee,"It is nice strong coffee. I learned of it in Costa Rica. It is whole bean, and I grind it up every day. It is good stuff !!!"
+17162,1,Disappointed,An earlier work. Craftmanship lacking and plot seems contrived. Some beautiful discriptions of natural world of Amish - were repeated almost word for word.Her later works - Abram's Daughters and Seasons of Grace are very much improved and they drove me to continue delving backwards to read her earlier work. How much I enjoy Beverly Lewis and she has spurned me on to read other authors and non-fiction books about the Amish. This book and Sanctuary are not examples of her fine writing and ability to capture Amish life and faith.
+17163,1,A piece of junk,This is really a useless piece of junk. The ball sensor is so insensitive that no better than one ball in five triggers the kick-back function and is returned--and only then after a minute of load noise from the machine. Save your money and don't buy.
+17164,2,Provides access to Beowulf,"I am neither a scholar nor a college or high school student. I am, however, a reader and a life long student, and Beowulf is a work that I have struggled with forever.After reading this book I understand that I simply didn't have enough information. Johnston remedies that by walking the reader, step by step, through the meaning of the poem by explicating the back story and the mythology familiar to the original listeners.She opens up the work by placing it in context historically, with chapters on religion, language, and culture, which are just as interesting on their own as they are in relation to the poem. And she does this all with a wonderful style that is accessible, concise, and engaging.So, while I recommend the book for students, I also highly recommend it for those just interested in getting a handle on Beowulf and having a peek at a period so shrouded by the effects of time."
+17165,2,Brain Hypothermia: Basic Science & Clinical Practice,"There are about 4 recent books on Brain Hypothermia. This one should be on the shelves of clinicians and researchers involved in hypothermia research. The chapters are succinct and well illustrated. It is very suitable as a desk reference on the subject for novice researchers. It discusses the parameters, biochemistry, management, and outcomes of hypothermia relevant to 2004. Dietrich has authored another Springer book in 2005 called Hypothermia for Acute Brain Damage which is more research based and more uptodate. The books are still quite different. The bench researcher will want to buy both, with priority on the 2005 volume. I used this book to help prepare for a visiting lecture I gave on Cerebral Ischemia: Cellular and Molecular Mechanisms."
+17166,1,Look Elsewhere,Within the 1st few weeks of owning the phone the cordless battery needed to be replaced. A few months later the cordless earpiece stopped producing sound. I've bought numerous $20 or less portables that are tougher and a better value. The base unit is fine but does nothing extraordinary that you can't get for less elsewhere.
+17167,1,Sinead disappointment,"I thought I would really like this release, maybe to be a little inspired by its contents. Neither happened. I played it twice, then never again."
+17168,2,"Sad, sad, sad... mesmerizing","When I first saw this movie I thought it was one of the saddest and most beautiful films I'd ever seen, which I still think today. The fugitive, the melancholic painter, the abused girl, the ship, and the dog, oh yes, the dog will break your heart and duly so. This was the kind of movie Marcel Carné used to make, sad and beautiful, effortless, peerless, unforgettable. He later made Children of Paradise, which is far more ambitious than Port of Shadows in narrative and production terms and although Children of Paradise is usually considered his greatest film, I'd be hard pressed to tell which of the two is more ravishing. Children is a luxurious opera; Port is a mesmerizing chamber piece."

+17170,1,Wow... this is one awful CD,"I was hoping to be blown away by Mr. Cornell's cannon of a voice, but instead found myself falling asleep to uninspired lyrics and down right awful music. All you have to do is look at the pictures of Chris in the booklet to realize this Knight of the Soundtable has lost his way. Avoid this one like the plague."

+17174,2,"Thank you, reviewers...","I punched in five stars because the reviews of this book are hilarious and I want to thank you all - and I do mean ""you-all."" I am about to read this book and I can hardly wait to see if I love it or hate it! I loved the review that said, simply ""This too shall pass."" On the other hand, I can see that it really moved many women, and I look forward to the experience, whatever it will be. When I am finished with this extraordinarily controversial book, I will write a full review."
+17175,1,The worst band in the world...ever!,For those who think leather pants look good. They don't they look sad and so is this cd. Why do the record companies release this rubbish. Don't waste your money.
+17176,2,Addictive,"I discovered this book by accident when I was looking at time traveling stories. This is not a time travel story per se but it has somewhat the same effect. I was first attracted by the fact that the story is about an archeological dig since archeology is an interest of mine. Then the idea of a ghostly sentinel patrolling a long ago battlefield was also interesting. I found the descriptions in the book very evocative and the Scots additions enough to give local color without being too opaque. I was especially happy that when the main characters are trying to communicate with the ghostly sentinel, they have to speak Latin to do it. It always annoys me a little in time travel books when characters from two very different times have no trouble communicating in modern English. I was also glad that the ending was happy. Overall, I was hooked and had trouble putting the book down."
+17177,1,tea kettle oops!,"The kettle looked very nice but was not efficient. The kettle took ages to come to the boil and to turn off. The ""On light"" was very difficult to see and the kettle too small. I would not buy this product again."
+17178,1,Give me some decent writers!,"Okay where is the science in this show? It is suppose to be a science fiction show? It looked to me, more like a war story. Surely the producers could have hired a scientist to help them out and put some in.At the start the series showed promise and I was hoping once it warned up it would get better like B5 did but instead this one went worse.Like many stories, this one failed with the writers. The acting is quite good. I thought that Mary McDonnell played well as did Edward James Olmos. Also I liked the special effects too.In 4.5, many scenes that were clearly suppose to move me did not. Several seemed a repeat of earlier ones in the show.Nor did the ending make sense. No way would an advanced civilization allow itself to collapse back to pre-stone age. Why destroy the ships?"
+17179,2,LOVE ROOKIE BLUE!,"To me there was no question as to whether or not I would buy this product! I love Rookie Blue, so if you love Rookie Blue this is an obvious choice, and if not... try it anyway!"
+17180,2,Essential,Gotta have this one if you're a fan of modern blues and blues-rock. All the greatest by the man who in my estimation had the most to do with keeping the blues alive in the musical wasteland that was (much of) the 80s.
+17181,1,Not great stuff....,"'The Sickness' has a few catchy sing-a-long songs that can be found all over the radio that, I must admit, made me buy the CD (Down with the Sickness.) The rest of the songs are not great, musically or lyrically; fillers. By far the worst song I've heard in a while has to be ""Droppin Plates,"" which made me roar with laughter. However, I will not say that there are NO good songs on the CD. The one I think with the most talent would be ""Numb."" The singer can sing fairly well and the guitarits are okay, but the drummer is weak.Basically, those of you who love Limp Bizkit or Drowning Pool or think KoRn is HARD music will think this album is hard, and you may like it. But for people who enjoy awesome bands with REAL musical talent such as Mudvayne, Tool, Crossbreed, Fear Factory, and Rammstein, please don't even think about getting this CD! It is simply very WEAK. Buy Demaufacture or LD 50 instead!!!"
+17182,1,Just another excuse to make money,"I am sorry but after reading this book, I have to admit that the feminists are right. Men are pigs and the only reason this book was written was for the authors to make money.The book tries to justify its existance by saying it is designed to help you find the love of your life on the internet. It actually only helps you find the love of your night. If I had actually used any of the tips in the book, I would have had alot of sex but I doubt finding my soulmate would have been possible. In fact I doubt anyone using this tips would find their ultimate mate, it would be inspite of the tips not because of them.An entire chapter is devoted to sterotyping women, though the authors do try to explain most women do not meet these types, then the list over 10 to watch out for.I am glad I did not actually pay for this, I would have demanded my money back."
+17183,2,Great Value!,"Rugged, easy to set & read. Great for wet environments. Easily cleaned. Too new to know reliability or battery life."
+17184,1,It works.,I am kind of disappointed. I didn't expect a whole lot for four bucks but this thing is pretty low quality. The gauge is just a piece of paper wrapped around the core and glued closed. On the bottom of mine the glue didn't adhere correctly and it is coming apart. It doesn't really affect the ability to measure but it is annoying.
+17185,1,Weak and Incomplete,"""The Newhall Incident"" interested me because the crime occurred in my hometown and I personally witnessed the police action in attempting to capture one of the perpetrators. But the book read too much like fiction in that the author constantly expressed thoughts and ideas on behalf of the people involved in the incident. Since those people lost their lives that day, we can never know what they were really thinking. The book would have been more valuable if the author had stuck to the facts. He also went way overboard on the use of profanity which made for difficult reading and detracted from his attempt to draw a psychological profile of the perpetrators."
+17186,1,"Eh, I guess sometimes you really do get what you pay for.","I purchased this cable to use to hook up my laptop to our television. It's been over a year & a half since I purchased it, and quite honestly, I'd forgotten I ever had - I tossed this cable in the garbage months ago because after the first few uses, it just didn't carry the picture correctly, and the slightest movement made things worse. I didn't use it that often so it was really a bummer."
+17187,1,Trouble from the start.,"I bought this 650+ with a D Link AirPlus 614+, also supports 22 Mbps. Upon installing the software and rebooting the card came up ok for the first few time. Then it was not recognized by the computer and wanted to reinstall the drivers. Plus, the card did not let me connect to other computers on the network to transfer files. The card has been intermittent and pain. Very bad product or just this set of router and pc card. Do not recomend this line of products. The hub DHCP server died in less than six months. Several techs tried to install and setup and on several Dell laptops. Tried a Linksys USB card and it work great. So think again about purchasing this product."
+17188,1,NOT VERY GOOD,"I DIDN'T THINK THAT PARTY SUMMER WAS A GOOD BOOK. IT WASN'T EVEN SCARY OR SUSPENSEFUL! I LIKED THE BEGINNING AND IT HAS KIND OF A COOL ENDING, BUT STILL IT IS A VERY DISAPOINTING BOOK FROM R.L. STINE."

+17191,1,Shame On You Columbia!,"Another shameless compilation by columbia to cash in on the up-coming holiday market sales. If anyone at columbia cares at all about one of the most improtant bodies of work in music of any era, start remastering the complete Dylan catalog beginning with his first. His catalog is of such poor quality I still listen to the LPs for anything before Of Mercy. My god, if you can remaster the Bands music (which was lnog overdue and in even worse shape), give bob his due. Quit producing mindless greatest hits complilations and give us whatwe really want: Quality dylan cds. And for those of you out there that think a cursory overall of dylans career is acceptable, find another artist to latch on to."
+17192,1,NEED SOMTHING THAT WORKS WITH MINI SD,"it is hard to get the mini sd card to fit in right, but you know you did it when the light goes on. After that my computer never recognizes it. I have ordered numerous amazon products to do this and i cant find one that works, even on my pc. i had one that broke during use, and thats the best i have gotten. does anyone know of one that works for mini sd, especially on a mac?"
+17193,2,It works.,"I bought this as my regular sized bathroom tub drain broke (I couldn't afford to repair it immediately). The size was larger than what I wanted. But I was able to bend it to make the pouch fit the drain hole. But my alteration made the center portion too deep that it hit the bottom of the drain. So I had to push the center portion slghtly up (making an inverse pouch) and then it sat well on the hole. There is almost no space between this strainer and the tub floor but even then a few hair strands manage to pass through the gap. But luckily they get stuck with the wire mesh of this strainer. I don't think any hair can really manage to pass through everything. Even if it happens it's negligible. It's more than a couple of months now since I put this, but it has not rusted yet."
+17194,2,"Slow to start, fast to finish!",I had a little trouble with the first part of AVALON (I like to shorten the title). The characters were hard to love in the first few chapters and since i dont read fantasy very much i was not framiliar with Merlin and the Lady of the Lake. About 1/3 of the way into the book i just couldnt stop reading! I had to know who was going to join the journey next and how the rest of the characters were going to fit it. It all comes together in the end and leaves you waiting for part 2. I highly recommend this book to anyone who likes a good read
+17195,2,The really big bag that I rarely use.,"This is a nice shoulder bag designed for laptops up to 17"". It was bundled as a free item with the purchase of my HP laptop. That is all very nice. I think that they were matched up because the color schemes matched. The quality of the bag is good. The shoulder strap could be a little wider for such a large bag. There are lots of cool inner pockets for every function imaginable. The problem is the laptop that I got this with is a 14"" widescreen and it just gets swallowed. Plus I felt compeled to use all the space in the bag which makes it quite heavy. I wish it were the 15"" bag of this same production line. That would make more sense. As for daily use, I don't use it. I use my laptop backback. It is hard to beat. Anyone looking for a good quality LARGE bag will enjoy the laptop carry all."
+17196,2,Good book,"The story is a good one. Paolini really is improving his writing skills. It is a bit wordy, not much action BUT he gives good insight into the characters' (Saphira & Eragon)development. Every series has that one book that gives a lot of story due to things like falling in love or training and development; well this is that book. I think he does a good job keeping you engaged in the story though. There is a great climactic battle scene and when he faces his enemy you are taken by surprise at who that enemy turns out to be. This is a good book especially if you intend to read the whole series because it does close a couple of loopholes before continuing the story line."
+17197,2,THE DONALD GOINES OF THE MILLINIEUM,I HAVE READ EVERY NIKKI TURNER BOOK THAT SHE HAS EVER WROTE AND A HUSTLER'S WIFE WAS A GOOD ONE. REGARDLESS OF WHAT EVERYONE ELSE SAYS ERRORS AND ALL.

+17198,2,Love Love Love This Pasta!,"Tinkyada is beyond great to begin with (just read all the other product's rave reviews!), but this fun pasta is just amazing to cook with. One of the drawbacks I've noticed about all rice pasta - even the stuff that stays together when you cook it - is that if you try to save any leftovers and reheat later, they tend to break up like crazy. With this pasta it does not do that and it's one of the main reasons I buy this shape over the plain shells or the elbow noodles. Plus, who doesn't love to eat crazy shaped pasta?"
+17199,1,best of the bunch... but that ain't saying much,"Hakim Bey is the best of the lifestyle oriented anarchist writers. His ideas are clear (or at least clearer than many others) and his writing style is attractive. Too bad his ideas are so silly.I'm all for parties, and the creation of temporary zones of fulfilment (which is what this book is calling for) but they aren't going to feed the starving or clothe the poor. Anarchist need to be thinking deeper and more concretely than this if they're going to make any real change."

Hold down the function key and watch as hidden amber symbols (for multimedia) appear over the function keys. Slide your finger up and down the touch-sensitive volume bar and watch the amber lights follow your finger (oh, and the volume gets adjusted too!). Give a light press to the touchpad, and see an amber ring appear around it.I would say this is a cooler alternative to other Media Center keyboards, even though it's not really billed as such. But place the keyboard in its charger base on a living room end table, alongside your MCE remote, and be the cool tech-junkie that you are.Just don't expect it to replace the keyboard and mouse on the computer you use to do productive stuff.I still give it 5 stars because it is a great gadget.

I've spent several hours on line with HP Tech support to no avail. They have bumped me up to a higher level of support, and told me that someone would get back to me within 3 days with a fix. I thought I was buying a great unit at a reasonable price. But after figuring in my time, and the fact that the machine is still not up and going with my Win 98 Machine, this purchase appears to be a big blunder."
+17207,2,Great first read,"This is the first Johansen novel that I've read. If it's the same with all her books, it won't be the last. I loved the fast paced action, but could have done without the romance part. Royd drove me nuts when he kept asking if he could get some or was I the best? I didn't like that much, but aside from that I really liked the concept of night terrors and killer dreams."
+17208,1,Not As Good As I Expected It To Be...,"I expected this soundtrack to really be something special. I was wrong, though. Half of the tracks on disc one are instrumental and the only good songs on it are ""Reload"", ""This Is The New Sh*t"", and ""Lucky You"". Disc two consists of only instrumental songs featured in the film. It is very boring."

This book looks at how the living & working conditions of the writers impact on their works. The book includes gorgeous photographs of the homes and writing spaces of the many writers covered in the book.

I love SNL movies, but this was probably the worst. Pat was funny...in some parts. But the hour and eighteen minutes that this movie last...it lags on. They could of made this a thirty minute short TV thing. I was disapointed to see Dave Foley in drag...again. I was glad to see Tim Meadows with a small role, he needs to get off of SNL and move on with his career or just find something else to do. Kathy Griffin was horrible, I just wanted her to go away. All in all, it was the stupidest movie I ever saw...but it was still pretty funny. Here's an example of SNL skits that shouldn't become movies...wink wink, nudge, nudge...night at the Roxbury?"

+17217,2,Very accurate,"I have used this test kit several times to monitor Nitrate in aquariums. It is the one kit that has been thoroughly consistent and accurate. You must use good light though when reading the results and follow the directions to the letter, that is important. I have found that viewing the test bottle against the card in direct sunlight helps to match the result to the closest PPM on the card. It can be a little confusing as the other reviewer claimed, but you are aiming for low readings to begin with and this brand is more accurate than the other cheaper one for Nitrate. And at this price compared to getting it at a chain pet store or LFS it is a great deal!"
+17218,1,FreeSpeak 250 - Not That Great,"I was really looking forward to the Bluetooth Wireless experience; however, the Jabra FreeSpeak BT250 is not all that great. With regular usage for three months with my Sony Ericsson T637, I found: a very short battery life, mediocre reception, and a shorter roaming range from my phone {suppose to be able to move 30 feet away from your phone, I couldn't get it to work beyond 7 feet}. Additionally, people would often tell me that they heard excessive static in the background and that it was hard to hear me.This technology could be great, but its a little overrated right now with the cell phone accessories that are currently available. I have had good luck with previous Jabra products and this one, the FreeSpeak, is just disappointing. Maybe I will try this again in a few years. For now, it's back to the ""wired"" headset."

+17223,1,Not as good as I expected...,"Being one of the most famous books S. King has ever written, & since the back of my book said that this book was creepy enough to make S. King scared - I decided to give this book a try...Personally, I don't feel that the story was as scary as all that buildup promised. Also, logic doesn't seem to be the story's strong point: for example - if the force of the burial ground was THAT strong - why didn't it attract Judd to bury Norma there, while it was strong enough for the cat?"

+17226,2,Alkaline Trio/Hot Water Music - Split,"How can 2 bands that are so great release a bad album? The answer: they can't. Some of the best new material from both of these bands can be found here. Alk3 and HWM each of 2 brand new tracks on here, plus they cover each others songs. Alk3 covers the HWM track ""Rooftops"", and they do a phenomenal job of it. More upbeat than the HWM version, the track loses nothing from the original while being adapted to Alk3's characteristic sound. HWM take on Alk3's hits ""Radio"" and ""Bleeder"". The HWM version of ""Radio"" is very similar to the Alk3 version, merely a bit rougher along the edges. Great job there. Now on the other hand, the HWM cover of ""Bleeder"" has been transformed from pop-punk, to a sullen, acoustic rock song - and its done to perfection. The only complaint I have is that its so short. These 7 songs will definitely leave you wanting more from both bands. 8.5/10For reviews like this and much more, visit bigtouchin.com"

CONS: the famous Hiss you allways get when there is silent parts to a movie (annoying but part of wireless headphones) . the sound is only good not awesome (my jabra Halo bluetooth playing thru iphone is awesome sound) .

Wrong.Being a student of the period leading up to the Hitler era, I can only admirethe thoroughness and artistry with which Deaver develops his portrait of an almost hopelessly complex historical period.

+17234,1,Defective DVI connector.,"Only good thing I can say is thank goodness for Amazon's return policy and service.First of all, the cable wasn't as the pictures show. It was a 10' (as opposed to a 6') with a thick blue colored braid with white stripes. Although I didn't want the extra length, that wasn't my problem with it. The DVI connector was defective to the point that it wouldn't slide all the way in. It was so far out that the screws couldn't even reach the mating connector threads. Upon visual inspection right next to another DVI cable, you could see that the pins were not properly centered. What kind of QC is that? Did they even try to mate it?"
+17235,2,STIMULATING INSIGHT ABOUT CRITICAL THINKING,"Both authors gave new insights into critical thinking which stems not from just ignorance of it, but the will and the discipline of practicing critical thinking in our professional and personal lives. Awareness of criticial thinking that does not necessary lead to action. It is common knowledge but not common practice. The traits of fair-minded thinking have been useful and need more illustrative examples. The inclusion of the standards of thinking is useful. It would be better to include some assessments on the standards of thinking and some simple tests of critical thinking at the beginning of the book to motivate readers to read on. The book cannot be read like a novel and has to be read carefully to understand the thoughts from both the authors."

+17239,2,A useful tool,"It does not do the thinking for you. It does not do the imagining for you. It does not do the writing for you. What it does is give you a workable framework, the boundaries in which to let your thoughts, imagination, and words run wild without fear of creating an anarchic mess. This method is the equivalent of creating a painting using the rules of perspective. Picasso mastered realism before he began playing with the rules of visual reality, and the same concept applies to novel writing. Too many writers are horrible storytellers, and this method helps you with the latter. Forget the overdone stream-of-consciousness approach and learn to tell a good story."

That said, I didn't mind the portrayals of liberals picketing, etc., I just tuned them out. They didn't bother me as they seemed to have bothered some of the folks reviewing this dog. This is just a poorly-done movie. The book must be better.Clive Owen just can't act; he dragged us through what little potential his casting offered, into the dreary discussiont of ""is there anything on HBO tonight?"". The plot was thin, and the ending somewhat ""inconclusive"". Most folks like a cut and dried ""this is what happened"" ending. That wasn't my objection. There wasn't enough of a storyline, coupled with high school drama-class poor acting, redundant violence, and a sorry dialogue.I want my free coupon back. How do I recover 2 hours?"

(Could a review be more offensive?)Here's the real reason for the mixed reviews: The book is not an average, run-of-the-mill thriller. It's experimental in many ways. I just think the experiment failed miserably.I won't spend time here listing the numerous reasons I couldn't stand this read... many other 1-star reviewers already do a great job of describing why this book should have been sent back to the authors with a ""stinks, please try again"" note.I will admit that I probably don't fully understand the pure evil of my sinful heart.

+17248,1,Everybody is just going through the motions. Lacks verve and class.,"My downgrading of this film is more severe than any posted here because I bailed out even before Charles Darnay decided to return to France. The characters are cardboard, deeds are extremely evil or 100% noble/good, nothing in between, and watching the film unfold is like watching a film director painting unimaginatively by the numbers. Dirk Bogarde is studiously bored and a very unconvincing drunk. Even the storming of the Bastille is something perfunctory and dutiful. Everyone is trudging wearily along the path marked out by Dickens, getting their time card punched and bored with what they're doing.

+17250,1,CHEAP!,"I was really excited about getting this for my brother for Christmas, but when we opened the package, the lasers would not fire and we could never get them to work, which is the whole point of the game, so it's pretty much trash now."
+17251,2,Fun and sexy romance,"This fun read had everything needed to make it a good romance. The hero and heroine were both very likable characters with a lot of fun banter. I liked the premise of the story; having the twin sister mistakenly rounded up by a bounty hunter was a fun and entertaining plot. The story had the right mixture of action,enjoyable dialog and romance to make me a new fan of this author. This was only the second book I've read by her but will certainly read more. The side plot with the twin sister was also a fun and enjoyable addition."
+17252,1,The Case of Missing Information,"The way this is supposed to work: Hook up the cable to your zune and then to the TV, corresponding the colours.They way thay say you need to do it: Do the same thing but with the zune dock.I am deffinately not happy about this. I just spent about $10 on something that is worthless to me, because I can only get the sound, and not the picture. Waste of money."
+17253,1,I'm sorry but here's a REAL review.,"No. This is NOT the same Sean Paul that brought us Gimme the Light and my favorite Sean Paul song EVER Get Busy. I think the old guy ran away never to return again. Besides a few OKAY tracks like the hit singles (which one of them I can't stand) this CD is very repetitive leaving an uninspired taste in your mouth. Can you dance to this? Yeah. Maybe. IF YOU'RE DEAF. I'm telling you to stay away from this one and buy Durty Rock. Getting a new CD just to get a new CD is overrated anyway.Worst songs: I'll Take You ThereBreakoutBest songs: We Be Burnin' and Temperature, sadly.CDs worth: Just over a buck!(Just have someone burn it--at least you won't have to be disappointed after spending 15 bucks on...this.)"

+17256,2,"Awesome stuff, this cd really blessed me.","Sal Arico has a very calming voice with powerful lyrics reasuring us of our faith. It's a very relaxing cd for the most part. You can practically fall asleep to this one, in a good way :)"
+17257,1,ghastly,"BARRY MANILOW meets the BACKSTREET BOYS with a mediocre guitarist. Cheesy songs, even cheesier lyrics and not one redeeming feature. Sets the benchmark for dross in my 700+ collection. It could be used as a coaster, so it is not entirely useless."
+17258,2,Great Book,"I needed this book for a class I was taking. I wasn't sure I would be interested in really reading it, just using it for class. But I found that I really got into it and the pages flew by."
+17259,1,DEEP DO DO,"Booklist says this book has ""non-stop suspense.."" I wonder where they found it! ""Bone Deep"" is a lengthy, ill-plotted, overly complex ""thriller"", with no thrills. First of all, its heroine, Dr. Iris Lanier, is about as likeable as a skin rash. She is self-pitying, whiny, self-centered and socially inept. Delving into her past only makes her less likeable. There are so many inconsistencies in this plot, and the whole focus on Iris' dig in Guatemala has absolutely no integral part in the plot. Her relationship with her father is about as deep as a bottomless cup of coffee. The Angel Gabriel's character is so unbelievable, it's funny. Also, what about the couple Iris sees while staring at an apartment building across the street? What in the world was that supposed to mean? Her visit with Madame Zora--what a waste.There is so much wrong with this book, that by the time it reaches its preposterous conclusion, you can only ask yourself, ""Why did I read this?""Not recommended."

If you can picture THAT story, then you'll have some idea how miraculous Edward Tulane's journey really is!"
+17262,1,Should have listened to the other reviews,"I should have paid more attention to the other reviews. This has got to be the most complicated vcr/dvd I have ever owned. It does take FOREVER to do anything, even turn on. Plan on having 15 or 20 minutes to get everything set up if you want to watch a movie or record anything. I finally was able to figure out how to use it and it does do a good job of recording and playback, although vcr playback isn't great. You have to use three remotes in order to playback or record anything and I am afraid to even try to set up a timed recording. I have not attempted that yet. Overall, I really don't like this product and would not recommend it."

+17264,2,A good bang for the buck so far,"I've just mounted it up and tried it out for the first time. It's hard to judge thus far because I haven't received my whip antenna yet, but a functioning cb with PA cabilities for $40 is tough to beat. The construction is a little cheap, so is the mounting hardware, but it functions like it's supposed to and install is about as straight forward as it comes. It's a smaller unit too so if you want to throw it in a cramped cockpit you should be able to find a spot."

+17266,1,Bridgestone Group VHS Transfer Untrackable EP,"5 stars for Lassie; 1 star for this crummy VHS! Here's more good advice to stick to the MGM VHS! We just bought The Painted Hills in a stated Collector's Edition claiming a ""Direct 35mm Film Transfer"" by the Bridgestone Group. After you open it you find unwatchable garbage that refuses to track in automatic or manual settings on different vcrs! Good idea to email your seller and ask about the studio, these reviews are used at multiple sites, and although I entered the AISN before writing this, Bridgestone is not mentioned at this site, and I see several other reviews for DVDs! Caveat Emptor! Buyer Beware!"
+17267,2,Pleasantly Surprised!,"This CD surprised me. I really didn't think I would like it however, I actually have come to like several tracks on the CD...at least 5-6 of them. The songs remind of Gerald Levert as well as a little bit of R. Kelly. Ruben is R&B with a bit of a hip hop flair. The CD has got a nice groove to it...probably for 30-40+ crowd versus the real young audience...which is kind of refreshing to me. However, a friend of mine who is 22 and a huge Ruben fan really liked it. She's the one who turned me onto it and I am 38. If you like R&B (like the sounds of R. Kelly and Gerald Lavert with a bit of hip hop) then I think you will be pleasantly surprised with this CD. If you are a big POP fan which Ruben is not, then this is probably not for you. Ruben said during American Idol that his music would be more R&B and that it is."
+17268,1,My daughter is happy but...,"This is the one item that my daughter wanted for christmas. She is very happy that her Barbie Dolls have a ""Barbie Camper"" (I am not telling her it is actually a Hot Tub Pary Bus....what five year old needs a hot tub party bus for her dolls? Despite her enthusiasm, the product is not worth the price. The fold out couch does not stay attached as it should - and is already broken. None the less...she still loves it."
+17269,2,Good pump for the money,"I used this pump for both of my children, a total of about 12 months of use. It helped up fantastic for the first 6-7 months, then I started having problems. I noticed that if the plastic liner/diaphragm between the hose and the cup got wet (for instance if it had a few droplets left on it from washing) it would get very easily stuck to the side wall and I would lose suction. The machine would get stuck in an ""on"" cycle and pump very hard until I removed my breast and dried the diaphragm. I also had one instance where it went into a very different suction cycle, sucked milk up above the cone where your breast goes, and actually the milk went through the hose. This obviously is not supposed to happen, because the hose leads directly into the mechanics of the machine and could damage the pump. Overall, it worked fantastic for the first six months before the problems started."
+17270,2,In The Shadow of the Prophet.,This is a book all Americans should read. Know the enemy. This is a expose by a moderate Muslim of most of the terror organizations and their workings. It is also a good review of he history of Islam and it's glory days. A must read for all.
+17271,2,Superb,"This movie is great. It has Bela Lugosi in it so what more can one say. However, in addition to Bela Lugosi, the transfer to dvd is just really, really fine. The picture is just incredible as is the sound. The soundtrack is real too and goes very well with the music. It was composed by the classical composer, Castelnuovo-Tedesco.What I found most fascinating in the movie was the role of the troubled werewolf and his relationship with those around him. The movie is in large part about the werewolf. There are some great moments when Tesla the Vampire treats the werewolf in a really bad way. Lugosi is so vicious that it is quite amusing to watch because he is just so evil.After the original Dracula and White Zombie this is my favorite Lugosi film."
+17272,2,good experience,"this is my second time ordering this particular product, both times everything was fine each time would order it again"
+17273,1,Bad transfer ruins good movie,"This transfer suffers from the same problems reported by other Amazon shoppers for the D3K edition of ""Charade"". It seems like D3K masters their discs from broadcasts by Encore or AMC. Unless you've got to have it, wait for some else to do a better job or buy the VHS."
+17274,2,"Maybe it's just me, but...","My review may be tainted by fond college memories, but I always thought Mr. Happy was one of those college bands that should have gone on to bigger things. Great band, great music, and some serious funk in the bass!The big missing item on this album is Scott's rocking cover of Let It Be."
+17275,2,Nice Containers,"These are some great little containers. I received all silver one in the mail, and that is the reason I give it a 4 out of 5. I was hoping for some variety but these will work great. I plan on using them as Geocache containers!"
+17276,1,A disappointment,"The disappointment is not in the quality of these DVDs--the disappointment is that the ""New Howdy Doody Show"" is not nearly as much fun as the old original program. The new show was stiff, over-rehearsed and mechanical. Check at your local Walmart in their display of ""dollar DVDs"" where you might find a DVD in just a sleeve for a buck that has 6 of the old original shows from the 1950's. For a dollar you will have a lot more fun watching Bob break up laughing, getting confused, and blowing his lines several times on camera. You'll love the cheap set (that looks like it came from the Salvation Army) and the noisy peanut gallery and the drawing of postcards from a plastic swimming pool for prizes of bicycles. It's the kind of silly fun that made the show a hit in the first place. The days of live and poorly rehearsed TV were just more fun--and still more fun to watch today."
+17277,2,Replaced our Plano 777 with this one!,We needed a replacement for our Plano 777 and they no longer sell that model this is the closest one we could find to match it. We use this to hold our tools and supplies for an onsite business and it works perfectly. The only difference in the two different tackle boxes were the slide in drawers and they had a box in the larger compartment however that wasnt a problem for us we still had the other ones from the 777 and they all fit in perfectly. We use this daily for work and they last for years really nice product.
+17278,2,Amazing Story!,"This is one of the most incredible stories I have ever read about! I have read many survival stories like ""Into Thin Air"", ""Touching the Void"", ""Ghost Soldiers"", ""No Way Down"", and many others. I have nothing negative to say about this book. This is NOT one of those books that you read once and forget about. You will want to read it over and over again."
+17279,1,Annette Curtis Klause's 'The Silver Kiss',"Okay, I started this one out with high hopes. I'm a big vampire fan, so I was really looking forward to this book. It kind of dragged a bit and the end was a total let down. I expected a bit more from a vampire book."
+17280,2,Haunting vocals with big sound.,"How three guys with three instruments make this much melody is beyond me. The sax is sexy, the drums perfectly reserved, and Mark Sandman's haunting vocals are enough to put you in another world. Who cares if it's temporary? Turn it up and escape for a while."
+17281,2,Phoenix foundation,"I bought this album for the one track that appeared on the film 'Eagle and shark'. I just loved it, and it took me ages to track the band down. I bought the most popular album by them, according to written reviews. After listening to it several times, I've found that I absolutely love every track! It goes everywhere with me in my truck. It's a shame that it was a little expensive, due to it being an import, but I still feel it was money well spent. If you like the samples that are available on Amazon, you too will love the whole Album!"
+17282,2,Works great!!,"After reading other reviews on the SCARECROW.... we bought two!! They work perfectly and keeps our very large yellow lab out of the roses and shrubs where he loves to dig. Yes, the scarecrow will keep you out too!! Great product to deter animals from the area you choose."
+17283,2,really a nice product,yes like them --have bought extra and given as gifts--anyone can use them--and people seem to like them--a unique gift--
+17284,2,loved it,"If you have read the previous title and want to watch a man resurrect himself, this book is a gorgeous read. Post-traumatic stress syndrome hadn't been conceived back then, but this poor guy is a classic example. And to watch him find a way to live with his war experiences was a wonderful tribute to all soldiers then and now. And the same for our heroine, who had some harrowing experiences of her own to come to grips with. Obviously a couple made for each other. :-) Don't miss!"
+17285,1,Does not work,"This charger does not work for my iPhone 4S or my Husbands 3G. I was a nice thought not having to take turns charging out phones in the car, espically on long trips. I have one of these that plugs into the wall in my house and we love it. But this one was a huge disappointment!I would have returned it if my kids had not thrown away all of the packaging."
+17286,1,Executive guide is right.,"There is not enough detail here to make this book worth the money. Don't waist your time, there are many other books here that will fill in the details, this is not one of them."
+17287,1,Trim not bookcase,When i first saw this product i wondered why it was so cheap. It wasn't until after i received it that i realized it was a trimming for the bookcase rather then the actual bookcase itself. I was very surprised and don't know what to do with the trimming. I'm stuck trying to figure out if i need a bookcase after all anymore.
+17288,2,Music for the mind,"Tool is so amazingly deep when you listen to the lyrics, you find yourself daydreaming about what they mean constantly! Their music points so many true values about our human race that many people would never notice otherwise. Ever since I heard ""Vicarious"", I have bought all of their CD's and have yet to be disappointed. Their music is so artistic and even the album cover is artistic and gives you that extra reason to buy the hard-copy of the CD!"
+17289,1,What a waste of dead trees,"This could rank as one of the worst books I've even seem. The author attempts to make some grand statement but it comes out as a palsied whine. The plot is boring, the characters cardboard. He thinks by throwing in some buzzwords he can form a techno-thriller, but it is painfully obvious that he forgot to look up what the words mean. I now understand why it was so hard to find, I wish it had been harder. This is definitely a 'B' grade effort from a 'C' grade author."
+17290,2,"Convenient, well sized but poor thermal seal","I got this to take on my bike (just barely fits in a Topeak Modula Ex) since I was getting tired of having cold coffee halfway through class. It's a great size and the cap and button system work great. Unfortunately that same button system ruins the thermal insulation and greatly decreases the amount of time coffee stays hot. You can feel the rubber section in the middle start to heat up almost as soon as you fill it. It stays hot long enough for my purposes, but I'd go somewhere else if you're looking to have a hot cup of coffee 8 hours after filling it."
+17291,1,Not so Fast on the Raves,"I bought this book based on all the rave reviews, and I was quite disappointed. Now, it's very possible that I'm at fault for that -- I thought this was going to be a book that taught you how to knit afghans, and that would have multiple patterns. It isn't. It's a book that teaches you numerous knitting stitches, and in the end, you put together all of the squares you've done, and voila, you've got an afghan made up of all those squares. I realize now that that's the picture on the cover, but I didn't realize it when I bought the book. Frankly, I learned a lot about all the stitches from ""Teach Yourself Visually - Knitting,"" so I didn't NEED this book for that. However, if you understand what this book really is, then I'd say it's worth considering. But I still think you're better off with the Visual book (because everything is in color and is much easier to follow), and possibly getting another book about afghans. Caveat emptor!"
+17292,1,Great while it worked,"We really liked this product for the 3 weeks that it worked. If your anything like me, You lost the recept almost before you unpackaged it so it wasn't worth the hassle of sending it back. Any way, the egg poacher just suddenly stopped working, and the toaster is slow and uneven, so the machine is not worth keeping if the poacher does not work"
+17293,2,Augustine,This is my 2nd biography of Augustine that I am reading.The 1st I did not finish. It was a hard read.This one is much better and makes it easier to understand such a complex Man.
+17294,1,Good display but inconvenient & not radio controlled,"This clock is easy to read, which I like most about it, but setting the alarm requires more finger acrobatics than I like... hold this while rotating that, press this while holding down that, etc. Be aware that ""automatic time set"" does NOT mean radio controlled. It means the time and date were set at the factory, and a lithium battery keeps time during shipment. When you first plug it in it's already pretty close to the real time, but like any manual clock, you'll need to set it if you want it right."
+17295,1,Don't buy it!,"I just purchased the Royal dm7070 and it froze up one hour after starting to enter information. Additionally, the numbers are small, and its only worth the $13.00 price tag. (if that)"
+17296,1,Not the place to start with Mr. Rhythm,"Andre Williams is a legendary figure in the world of greasy, sleazy Rn'B. Andre's recordings for Fortune Records in the 50's and his soul/funk sides in the 60's are too good to be believed. In the 90's Andre came back in a huge way with two mind-blowing albums of psycho-garage-soul on In The Red Records - in between these albums he recorded this one. ""Red Dirt"" is Andre doing his country and western thing - obviously this type of music is one of his passions. Unfortunately, Andre simply isn't a country artist and this recording never reaches the heights (or depths) of his other records. His voice is still great and his lyrics are still funny, but the musical background just doesn't suit him. For Andre Williams completists this is an OK record, but this is definitely NOT the one to start with if you have never experienced his genius."
+17297,2,One of the best Halo games,"I really enjoy playing this. I really only purchased this game for the campaign mode so I could see what mainly happened between Combat Evolved and Halo 3. Halo 2 was a major step forward for the franchise, and perhaps one of the best."
+17298,1,Started good but...,"Well, this started out interesting, but then it fell, not only flat, but not understandable. I had a hard time trying to figure out what was even going on. I think this story could have been written better though. The fault is on the author here, IMO.The characters' actions sometimes made absolutely no sense, and were so unrealistic, I actually found myself struggling to picture the story happening. Also, a lot of times it was not clear who was speaking, or what they were speaking about, or even what was happening. I had to read paragraphs over and over to finally grasp what I had just read. And then after that, I'd think, Why would THAT happen? Or, Why on earth did she let her mother do that?"
+17299,1,"Good, but it could have been better...","I like these episodes, they are probably the best dubbed episodes I've seen, but I don't like the dubbing. Zoisite's death is much better in the original, for an example...."
+17300,1,Oddly misinformative,"I suppose referring to Shakespeare unironically as ""the Bard"" is a matter of taste: some people call Dickinson ""Emily"" and Whitman ""Walt."" Other choices in this low-level introduction are more irritating: Shakespeare's grandfather ""was a tenant farmer who owned 60 acres . . ."" (p. 17). The plot summaries are fatuous: in _Two Noble Kinsmen_ ""Theseus tells Emilia to choose one; the other will die. She cannot choose so a date is fixed the following month"" (p. 51); at the end of _Measure for Measure_ ""The duke marries Isabella"" (p. 44). Johanyak's bland assertion is both untrue to the script (no wedding) and concealing of a crucial point of 20th & 21st century direction: how does Isabella respond to the Duke's assumption that she'll marry him?--Well, W.H. Auden says that a bad book invites a reviewer to show off, so I'll stop."
+17301,2,Serves a frozen concoction with ease,"The tumblers easily hold frozen drinks, smoothies and milkshakes. The colors make it easy to distinguish which cup is yours at a party. Put the Sharpie in the drawer and give up on plastic tumblers from the grocery aisle."
+17302,1,Maybe I can still return it!,"This book is just more of the same, a story that goesnowhere. It's to bad, the first 5 books were great. Maybe he forgothow he was going to end the story, now he just writes aboutnothing. That's it for me, I won't waste [money] on Jordan again. Ifyou want great fantasy look to George R.R. Martin."
+17303,1,Annoying Drivel,"Several of the most annoying people I've ever known drone on incessantly about how they're going to be millionaires by obsessively following this book's commands. I glanced at it in the bookstore at it seemed to be resemble most diet plans, i.e. eat less and exercise. If I understand correctly, if I spend less, put my money in mutual funds, and devote all my waking hours to accumulating money, I can join the ranks of people with a million dollars. Ge, no thanks, I think I'll keep my personality the way it is, and read some decent novels instead of this drivel. May I recommend Thomas Pynchon as a start? Or maybe a tome of history, say, C. Vann Woodward?"
+17304,2,This Thing Rocks!,"I replaced an old inexpensive sub woofer with this unit and I can't believe what I was missing!This thing rocks the house. The difference is amazing. Whether listening to music or watching a movie in Dolby Digital 5.1 this thing pounds (yet you can turn it down). And it's clear. The sound clarity is great. I didn't realize a sub woofer could reproduce such clear, well defined low frequency sound. My previous sub was smaller than this one and I kinda thought this one was a little too big (there is an 8"" version) but after listening to it the extra size is well worth it. Another nice feature is the front panel controls which makes it very easy to adjust the sound for different circumstances. All in all I'm very satisfied with the performance of this unit especially for the price. Combined with the Yamaha NS-125 Tower speakers I also purchased (a great deal) my system sounds better than ever."
+17305,1,"Very, very cheap quality","Sure this thing is only around $20, but this thing was built horribly. I had to snap the buttons back into the metal face plate as they were coming out from the factory. After a few times of switching button #1, it failed and wouldn't turn off. Another button stayed partially illuminated even when off. This is junk, stay away."

Does he have his eyes set, on a say, Justin Timberlake, the late Robert Goulet, a Brad Pitt "" Retrospective, "" or maybe a duet with Barry Manilow singing, "" Mandy?""Women, like everyone else, have to grow-up & if you're from the 60's then there is No hope for you.But if you are content with this very poor facsimile, then you get everything you deserve."
+17307,1,Let Me Down Every Time,"As I have been contemplating purchasing another device bad thoughts of my PN-20 fill my mind.It has failed EVERY time I needed it.Sometimes it couldn't pickup satellites.Other times the battery died with no warning (unpleasant when it is not noticed for an hour when I needed a bearing)After 3 or 4 new rechargeable batteries from the company (none of which lasted more than a few hours) I gave up and started using alkalines. These lasted longer.As others have said the desktop mapping software is cumbersome to useAnd I had difficulty entering an absolute lat long destination directly into the PN-20. this might have been my fault but it sure wasn't obvious.Looking at the new pn-40 I just keep thinking ""fool me once, shame on you.. fool me twice, shame on me""I still desire the functionality. But this hasn't worked for me for more than several miles on foot.PS: I just loaded the 1.5 ROM and will try this device again. But I have little to no hope."

+17310,2,Good stuff here...,I only give this 4 stars because it definitely leaves you wanting more. Especially love Crowd Control and Two Versions. Good stuff from beginning to end in my opinion...
+17311,1,Discouraging Read,"I thought the book was very discouraging to the readers. I think you can be realistic without saying - basically unless you are extremely lucky, you don't have a chance to be a columnist.I felt the book was always on the cusp of giving useful information. Then just before it was getting good, the author would stop short and start a new topic. I think the author could have gone into topics in a more detailed manner, instead of paragraph long diatribes on why this is really never going to happen for you."

+17315,2,A generous anthology,"This is a superb anthology. The texts selected by Castillo and Schweitzer ring with the conflicts of imperial expansion in the New World and provide fascinating new perspectives on writing in the early Americas. Annotation is painstaking and thorough, and the introductions provide useful contextual information without attempting to overshadow the texts themselves. A generous project, which will help to break down disciplinary barriers in new and exciting ways."

The view you hold of the Scriptures, of Kadosh texts founded on revelation, and study..The Torah--the Navim - the Writings- seems to be another one than we have had as a people for these thousands of years.I can not recommend this book!"
+17320,1,Save your Money...And your Mind!,"My daughter begged for a Hello Kitty dvd after seeing one at her preschool. I put her off for a long time, then got one called ""Hello Kitty eats her Vegetables."" It wasn't too bad; bit preachy for my taste, and definitely made from the perspective of a different, more guilt-oriented culture. So, after that one, I thought I'd try this one. Lordy! What a mistake! I went online, researched, and discovered that there are several Hello Kitty dvds produced from a variety of makers. They are all extremely different. To my taste, this isn't fit to show a child. It's sappy, stupid, and scary in really weird ways. The animation is completely low-rent, unimaginative, and downright stupid. The characters talk so fast and with such annoying voices, that it's how I imagine an acid-trip would be. I have banned it from my household."
+17321,1,"This was terrible even for the 70's, asks us to believe that","the beautiful Joan Van Ark (pre-Knots Landing) falls for boozey old macho Richard Boone,icky pooh. Don't believe the good reviews, Get Gargoyles instead, much better movie, better acting, better storyline.It's a matter of taste, I know, but really I wanted the Dinosaur to kick the crap out of Boone."

She had a friend that let her borrow it to watch but of course wanted it back. She is only 3 so didn't completely understand the concept of borrowing. We looked everywhere and could not find this movie. Finally, I looked here and was so excited to see that I could purchase it. THe seller was wanderful. It arrived right on time and was brand new just as stated in the product description."

+17326,1,Time Warp Therapy,"This book seems like it was written at the beginning stages of the self-help pop psychology movement. It is like an extra long version of a fashion magazine article on anger ""styles."" Get yourself a practical book that gets to the heart of the matter like 60 second anger management : quick tips to handle explosive feelings by Michael Hershorn. Anger Management Workbook by W.A.Angus is also a good choice for its practicality. The Anger Workbook by Lorraine Bilodeau is a very straightforward book that illuminates the many causes of anger that aren't just behavioral."
+17327,1,this charlatan doesn't even know what science is,This book has nothing about Science or Biology. This charlatan cannot even define Science correctly. This is a mixed pot of 'something' that has no depth. The book is shallow and it is a total waste of my time and money.

+17329,2,Scholarly and enjoyable,"I have been reading History Today for years. It covers largely European, and especially British, history, with occasional articles on American and world history. Articles are written by established scholars and sound popular historians, such as Antonia Fraser and Alison Weir, and are accompanied by brief bibliographies. Illustrations are usually drawn from sources contemporary with the subject of the article.Its only drawback for Americans is the price. However, after years of freeloading in libraries, I decided to get asubscription. Believe me, it is worth it."

The first book about the Jefferson Hunt was marvelous..the second not quite as good.No doggy biscuit for this one.The Hunt Ball lacks cohesiveness and a strong plot..Big letdown at the end. The sentences either tend to be run-on or very simple ""Dick and Jane"". and a great deal of needless description ...and most strange; there were innumerable references to brands of car, dress, food , and even hunting clothes and horses tack.

U ised to try and by for durability, but the Fat Max tapes are not durable or as cheap as this tape. I will NEVER buy another fat max tape. Not only is this an easy to read tape, but the price is very fair compared to its durability.only cons is:1 its hard to read inches from a distance, if you have to fold the tape and read the height if a wall stick to a regular tape. The labeling is GREAT for cabinets, hard to read on walls."

Grilled for four adult hot doge, hamburgers & Italian Sausage, had plenty of room and they all were delicious.I don't know about the complaints others had but I bought one for my son & daughter-in-law & they love it too."

+17346,1,Poor acting and contact lenses.,"I'm an avid fan of the 70's / 80's genre of SW films. This recent trio of prequels fails to entertain. The young actors in this film are all too difficult to overlook. Their attempt at reciting this horribly written dialogue is painful. The effects are grand, but too grand. The scenes are NOT believable at all. I found myself yawning and awaiting my exit. Don't bother with this DVD. The ""EXTRAS"" are not worthy of the cash. What happened to ya' George?"

I was at the then, Great Woods, now Tweeter Center, in Mansfield, Mass., to see the 1995 concert which was great! If you weren't an ""Eagles"" fan before, you will be, after watching this DVD. There's just so many great songs, from the earlier ones like, ""Take It Easy"" and ""Hotel California"", to the newer songs like, ""Get Over It"", and ""Love Will Keep Us Alive"". The Eagles are one of the most talented bands of our times and the ""Hell Freezes Over"" DVD really displays that talent. The songwriting, the singing, and the instrumentals, are like no other band out there, and one will truly enjoy watching and listening to this DVD!"

+17358,1,Utter drivel.,"Pedantic, pretentious and precious lacking either warmth or soul.What this book needed was a ruthless editor to cut through the pompous, dessicated codswallop that Mayes tries to pass off as 'writing.'If it's not being excruciatingly boring, it descends to being utterly ridiculous.Her shopping trips are endless orgies of smugness and self gratification. Mayes even manages to buy wine to the appropriate shop muzak. She writes approvingly, Vivaldi for whites and Brahms for reds!!! For God's sake.......Mayes just doesn't connect on any real human level with either Tuscany or the people who live there. She is a cold, cerebral voyeur probably writing to finance her by now, substantial retirement fund.What a shame that I unwittingly contributed to it."
+17359,2,This is the Best Breakup Book You Could Ever Want!,"This book is wonderful! Not only does it give you tips for handling your awful breakup and stories from people going through a similiar experience, but it does it all in a humorous, loving way. I just got out of a 5 year relationship when I ordered this book, and just reading the advice and knowing that I am not the only one who has been through such an awful breakup helped me out tremendously. This is a must-have book for any woman, whether you're going through a nasty breakup or you've been there and know how we all feel. Either way, it's definitely worth your time!"
+17360,1,Missing several key elements; focuses on old versions,"I have no doubt that the authors know Transact-SQL very well. The problem is, they inexplicably focus on old versions of it in this book. SQL 7 is practically omitted from this book entirely. There's no coverage of fulltext searching. No coverage of SELECT TOP or the statistical aggregate functions. No coverage of automation, the BULK INSERT command, or the many other commands that were new or that changed significantly in version 7.0. This is simply inexcusable, and I recommend you skip this book because of it."
+17361,1,What a hot mess of a movie....,"'The Hills Eyes II', one of the most pointless and blatantly stupid sequels to come around in some time, is 90 minutes of incompetent film making at its finest. Or worst, however you choose to look at it. While 2006's 'Hills' remake was one of the year's best, and truly frightening, horror films, this sequel takes every spark out of what made that such an accomplishment. Part 2 never gets off the ground, and neither does its mind numbing dialogue. Worst of all, it's not that scary."

+17366,1,Shame On You Michael Gross,"If Michael Gross dedicated just a fraction of the time he spent researching and writing this book, perhaps he would have a fraction of what Mr. Lauren has: a highly successful and valuable global company, a stimulating and fulfilling workplace for thousands of people, a high quality assortment of products, and world class brand. Mr. Gross is a bottom feeder, a veritable catfish in the literary world. He creates nothing. He makes nothing. He does nothing. Other than criticize and critique what others do. He doesn't strike me as the type of person to be ashamed of himself, but I am ashamed for him."
+17367,2,Better than buying it at the drug store....,"When my Dad needed a wrist support, I bet him that I could find one that was a great quality but a whole lot cheaper than buying it at the drug store. I WAS RIGHT! It's a great product and priced affordibly."
+17368,2,Looking for something efective,"Bought the product because last year my dog, a wonderful big Golden Retriever had a serious desease from ticks, and the products we had been using did not provide good enough coverage for ticks. Have applied it today because I just came back from the States and will see if it works.....our vet said it's very good, so we hope the dog will be effectively protected and able to go to his everyday walk, everywhere."
+17369,2,Just one word; genius.,"Being both a mechanical engineer and an absolute lover of physics, I have few words to describe what this book means. This book is simply the bible of field theory inthis world. However is not to everyone, it is a very hard book, rigorous mathematically talking, profound and definitive, this is that kind of book you only catch up and face it when you have a rigorous and a considerable knowledge of both physics and advanced calculus, obviously if you have neither one nor other, you'd better get another text, maybe an intermediate one. It is interesting that it starts with special relativity and finishes with general relativity; you'd better be good in tensor calculus. Landau left a legacy unequaled in terms of theoretical physics; all of his books on this series are way above average and absolutely definitive texts in theoretical physics."
+17370,1,Waste of money. They should be ashamed.,"I too bought this based on the good reviews. Now I see the bad reviews popping up. Too late for me but not for you! Don't buy this. Although it does seem very nice when you first unpack it, it does not perform anywhere near it's price expectation. I have returned it after several frustrating sessions of angry kids and wasted batter.My experience has been much the same as the last 2 reviewers. But I want to add one thing. The cord on this unit seems thin and cheap. That is an indicator of poor power management right there as something that would need the power this hulk needs to be and stay hot would have a more substantial cord.I echo the other negative reviews, do not buy this, you will be sorry."
+17371,1,Healthy Kitchen,The cook book was very disapointing. The only good thing about it was Andrew Weils tips that were scattered throughout the book. It should of been much better.
+17372,1,Bang the Book Quickly Closed,"All reviews seem to agree with what I found, that there was little here more than stories on how their agency achieved success with such and such a product. If you came for advice on anything else, you won't find it.Since self-promotion/self-help books sell, I assume that is the only reason a publisher spent time on this."
+17373,1,If I wasnt so busy I would return it,"it beautiful,nice color, seems sturdy, but put it in the drawer put silverware in it and with in 3 days three of the dividers are unglued and shifting around. I should return it but who has time to mess with stupid things like this?"
+17374,2,"A riveting, realistic thriller!","I read this book years ago and was absolutely riveted. It is a different kind of Crichton than one would expect. However, this book delivers with each page. I'm not sure how much about the Japanese is true. But after reading it I wanted to learn to speak Japanese and learn about their culture. The characters are fascinating and have considerable depth. The technology interested me much, but Crichton watered it down so that the average person would be able to understand it. This is an excellent and solid read. Actually, I read it twice, cover to cover!"
+17375,2,"Dark, satyrical and undeniably humorous.","Without a doubt, Director's Cut is one of the funniest, most demented comics I have ever read. Johnny is wonderfully rendered as a tool of his ever increasing insanity and ""other"" forces, in a hopeless attempt just to be left to live his own life without being harassed by the world. The content of this book deserves five stars, unfortunately, the construction suffers. After reading the book once, the spine had split and pages began pouring out. If you do purchase this book (I highly recommend you do so) be extremely careful in turning the pages, as they will come out very easily."

+17378,2,Life in the 82nd Airborne in WWII.,"One hears alot about the 101 Airborne Screaming Eagles, especially after Ambrose's books on the subject. I liked this book, and got a better look at what life was like in the 82nd. You get sad when the author talks about the bodies the author comes across (Huertegen Forest) when the author comes across this battlefield. So many died for our country, and those that endured this agony didn't have it much better.This is a nice memoir of the author's role in WWII. I got a better glimpse of what life was like in the 82nd. The author portrays how it was in both combat and rear areas. He talkes of his loss of friends and comrades in battle. He also talks about his early poverty and why he joined the army. An interesting story from a patriot."
+17379,2,It is a very valuable album with prayers for everyday life.,"This album has beautiful Quran recitation and adthan in addition to valuable everyday prayers. Also, the last song on the album is awesome. It is done with sincerity and determination. While the information may seem elementary to most Muslims, it is worth having these duas on album."

Most of the time, you will spend about ten minutes clicking the little button trying to get the iron to understand you want to begin ironing, the iron seems to have such a high opinion of itself that it thinks you are done before you have even started. Most of the time i prefer wearing slightly wrinkled clothing instead of having to use this iron."
+17384,2,Simply the Best,"Through all of the band's many changes this show puts the best foot forward. From the vocals being on key and not strained throughout all songs, to the more upbeat, quicker rhythm of Chris Slade's drums, this was AC/DC's finest moment as a rock band. All of their other videos do not come close. Check out the audience during the first song, Thunderstruck. It's a mass of people just jumping up and down in waves - definitely pulse popping. Awesome all the way through."
+17385,2,A hard pill to swallow cause it's the end,"THE MOVIE WAS HANDS DOWN THE BEST IN ANIME ;BETTER THAN THE FIRST ONE ,NOW I HAD A BIG PROBLEM ,THE VOICEOVERS ,WELL NOT ALL OF THEM JUST SAKURA&TOMOYO(MADISON),IT WAS SORTA OUT OF WHACK WELL IN TOMOYO'S IN PARTICULAR BUT EVERYBODY ELSE IT WAS BEAUTIFUL,THE LINES WERE INTACT ,AND SO WAS THE SUBTITLES FOR PIONEER IT WAS A GOOD JOB ON WHAT THEY DID WITH THE MOVIE,THE MOVIE WAS JUST GREAT FROM BEGINING TO END ,IT WAS WELL PLOTTED ,AND THE BATTLES WERE JUST CRAZY IN A GOOD WAY. I WOULD DEFINITELY RECOMMEND THIS MOVIE TO ANYBODY BIG OR SMALL,FOR AGES 4&UP"
+17386,2,Legal Thriller with a Message of Hope!,"This novel was more than I could have hoped for in a suspense/legal thriller. The characters and plot are so vivid that I felt that I knew each person and the role they played personally. The plot is realistic yet very intriguing. As a fan of James Patterson, John Grisham, Tom Clancy etc. I strongly recommend ""Directed Verdict"". It reads like a NY Times bestseller and delivers a power-packed, uplifting message of hope for every reader!! This is a very, very good book."
+17387,1,Good......but hardly a breakthrough,"As one might expect, the scholarship of Jane Schaberg is of a very high standard. However, she takes far too much mileage from the supposition that the word ""Magdalene"" means from the modern Israeli town of Migdal. There is absolutely no evidence that Migdal, like Nazareth, existed during the early first century. Magdalene and Nazarene are no doubt important titles, but what they might actually mean is apparently of no concern to Schaberg. So she imposes onto the ancient Jews a westernized set of norms that don't threaten her presuppositions. The upshot is that the reader is no closer to understanding Mary Magdalene."
+17388,2,Hip hop on the next level...,"This record doesn't sound like the work of human hands. It must have been born in the cosmos somewhere and arrived here via UFO. The beats, samples, and good God, the *lyrics* are beyond anything you've heard on a hip hop disc recently. These MCs can flow like no other. The warped stories(Cliff hanger), free asociation rhyming (A-G) and cautionary messages are just beyond perfection. Buy this, play it loud until the neighbors need thier own copies too..."

+17390,1,product what I wanted- packaging bad,Product was what I wanted but the packaging was bad. Lost one of the pens in the shipment. Box that pen package was placed in collapsed in mail and opened. Sent e-mail to amazon but did not get response. Will not order this item from them again. So one star is for the package and delivery not the product.
+17391,2,A must to read! Share with others!,"I picked up this book on the recommendation of a good friend, so that we may sit and discuss during a book club. I was totally amazed! I've already sent it to two other friends, in order to help them with their healing process after losing loved ones; my partner has done the same for a co-worker who lost her father. I grew up in a Catholic household and still hold *most* of the Catholic beliefs, so I can comprehend the author's background. There are so many ""aww"" and ""wow"" moments in this book. You truly must read this, even if you have not personally suffered a loss. (that goes for pets, too) *wink*"
+17392,2,Silicone Case for Palm Treo 755p,I am enjoying its use. The only issue is one of manufacturing. The opening that allows for moving of the vibrate off/on control does not align with the control. It is difficult to move the control. I modified the case by making a small cut to it.
+17393,1,A nice try butt...,"A valiant effort but in the end it left me very unsatisfied. The problem with doing books based on Battletech is that sometimes the Mechs and the combat seem to overshadow the storyline. Don't get me wrong, there were some very good parts and the battles were written very well. But in the end it's just too much. There are so many battles in the book that for the most part the larger story is ignored.I've had mixed feelings about the whole Twilight series in general. I'm not sure I really agree having a series of books done by four different authors. You sometimes end up with different feels altogether. But be that as it may I have hope for the future and will eagerly await the release of ""Prince of Havoc""."
+17394,2,Still the greatest after 20+ years,"It freaks me out that this album is 25+ years old, and that I've been listening to it for at least 20. A guy I worked with in the mid-80's turned me on to it, claiming it was the best album ever. It didn't take long for me to agree, putting it alongside ""Sticky Fingers"" as my all-time favorite. The ambition, musicianship, variety, sound, energy, lyricism...it's all here. Absorb this masterpiece, and then lament what a sorry state popular music is in today by comparison."
+17395,2,Good product--does what it's supposed to do.,"This is a replacement for the same product which I had been using for about 9 years. I use it for my bedroom TV, and it it entirely satisfactory. The AC-powered unit plugs into the ear-phone jack on the TV and is activiated when it detects sound from the TV. The headphones are battery-powered and deliver clear sound. I recommend this device, but the buyer must know that in order to use this device, your TV or DVD player, etc., must have a ear-phone jack."
+17396,1,Got the wrong item!,"From the photo, I thought these toothbrush heads were the correct style.When I got them, they were slanted at the base, and my Waterpik base would need a straight bottom( not angled, like the ones I got).I wanted to return them for exchange, but I do not have a printer attached to my computer. Evidently, your website prints out the return address label. May I have an alternate way to return these?Thank you,Eva Viertl"

+17398,1,Small information-value added,"The book is most useful as a source of references. A wide range of planning tools and techniques are mentioned, but treated in very small depth, and the text denotes little practical experience of the author in the management of true corporations, as when he states that ''The planning of strategy to identify a firm's mission, goals and objectives, ..., represents the difference between success and failure in today's environment'' (sic). There's certainly much more to success and failure in real world corporations than that. The reprint of the Telecommunications Acts of 1996 and 1934 occupies almost half of the book."
+17399,1,Recipe Challenged,"I paid a premium for this product believing it to be the best. Having two ""paddles"" seemed advantageous.So far three loaves of bread per the recipes accompanying the maching (all three different) have had the same result. Very non-uniform in appearance. All could not have been mixed properly - or the recipes were very wrong for the machine.So far, very disapointed, but I will continue to try."

""Golden Touch"" is a decent song, hence my (unfortunate) purchase of this release many moons ago.

+17405,1,Avoid this game like the plague !!!,"This has gotta be one of the worst games I've ever seen on any system. This was made by a company called Volition, a company here in the US. Americans cannot make an RPG/adventure to save their lives! All the good RPG's are from Japan. The graphics are dark and hard to follow sometimes. The gameplay is ridiculousy HARD with the silly chain attack system. Do not waste your money!"
+17406,2,Great for Inuyasha fans!,"I have been waiting to give these Inuyasha's games another chance, Inuyasha fuedal fairy tale was good, and Inuyahsa the secret of the cursed mask was a complete joke! Anyway this game is very fun, it is like bodoukai three with Inuyasha characters. The only thing is it doesnt have many attacks as boudakai 3 or as many people. My favorite thing was the teams, all though my favorite characters are Sesshoumaru, Koga, and Inuyasha, they dont work good on a team... But that makes it more realistic, I mean it wouldnt be right if Koga and Inuyasha were working together! I think it is really cool that this game has Bankostu he is also very good, anyway I would wait till the price goes down to $19.99, by Christmas it should be down."
+17407,1,Cheaply Made & Uncomfortable,"I don't mind that it's low to the ground, but the chair is very cheaply made. At a local store it wouldn't sell for more than $10. The bar under your legs in painful. Mine came with the armrests all nicked up. It's difficult to adjust the reclining position. It's heavier than described. Also, it's kinda painful to carry on your back because of lack of padding."

I thought it had to be the cartridge, and so stated in my reply to you.I thought perhaps you would provide me with a new cartridge, instead I was offered a 15% discount. I could not tolerate the sound, so that was not acceptable. I have quite a collection of records 33 and 45's. Some of them are in fair condition but the reproductio was very poor.I have ordered several items on the net and that was the first return. so I don't think it was my problem.Thank you,Robert Sanders"
+17410,2,One of the most powerful and moving records I have ever heard,Of some 3000 records I own Johnny Cash's The Man Comes Around is one of the most powerful and moving I have ever heard. Cash gives meaning and deapht to songs that would just pass by when done by other artists.
+17411,2,Tons of Scholarships,"I am a Financial Aid Counselor at a private college. We were thinking about buying some books that our current students could use for scholarship searches. This book has TONS of various scholarships in it. There are several different categories that the scholarships are listed under, which makes it easier for the student to search. The student can also search through each scholarship if they wish, but that will be very time consuming. I recommend this book to any incoming or current college student who needs more free money."
+17412,1,Don't buy it!,"This MP3 player is the bottom of the line. 2 AA (not AAA like toys r us says) batteries last about one hour, and the maximum volume is about 1/4 the maximum volume on a normal cd player. In order to put more than two songs on it, you have to decrease the bitrate to 32kbps (which means the songs sound like they're coming from a bad AM radio). I'm returning mine to the store today!The bottom line is: If you're going to buy an MP3 player, don't get this one. ... The KBGear JAMP3 Player is a total waste of money, Don't buy it!"

+17418,2,"Like ""The Goonies"", but for adults","I thought this book was a great read because of the descriptive writing. If you have ever seen the movie ""The Goonies"" (treasure hunt movie by Steven Spielberg) it's like that, but on an adult level. I thought the book flowed nicely. It will definitely keep your attention. I look forward to reading another of their books, as this was my first."

+17426,2,Great music performed extraordinarily well,"My introducation to the music of Dmitri Kabalewsky was through the old Horowitz recordings of the 3rd sonata (both live and studio version) and some of the preludes. The music here is not as phantasmagoric as Scriabin, not as lush as Rachmaninov, and certainly not as ""modern"" as Prokofiev. Yet Kabalewsky is very original and falls within the Romantic range of Russian pianism. His music evokes various moods that might remind one of Prokofiev but there also seems to be an element of the fantasy there as well, especially in the preludes. The Sonatas are tight pieces well worth frequent performances on today's concert stage. The pianist, Wolfram Schmitt-Leonardy, is excellent with this music and plays it to the hilt. The sound and recording quality is very good as well. In all, a worth while CD for pianophiles looking for something new and good."

The ""step by step"" directions are confusing...at the end of the book, I was left wondering how I am going to build a usable flash site? Well, I know how to animate a bouncing ball...but what the hell is that going to do for my flash site? This is a confusing and worthless book."
+17435,2,Easy to read and to understand,"The Reuters Financial Series allow almost every person with a simple knowledge of economy and mathematics to understand the stock market. It contains a lot of informaton and practical examples and the graphical look allow us an easy understanding of the topics.

+17436,1,Great beginning,"The information in this book is invaluable for anyone of any age wanting to understand more clearly just what our Constitution is all about, especially how it affects our daily lives. The explanations are written well, neither writing down to the reader or getting lost in pretended legalities.I recommend this to readers of just about any age who are interested in the real principles on which our country was founded because it clearly shows just what we've been losing by being ""politically correct."" It also makes clear the limits to which government should adhere."

+17439,1,Titanic waste of money and time...,"To put it succinctly, this movie is a completely unoriginal, cliche ridden piece of garbage. The dialogue is some of the worst I have ever heard. The romance is sickly sweet and utterly predictable. If you want to see some excellent period piece-type romances try something like The Age of Innocence, Dangerous Liaisons, or A Room with a View (particularly excellent!). At least these are well acted and well written. Titanic is an overly hyped completely commercialized stinker with a capital ""S""!"
+17440,2,Good summary and very helpful,"This book is a good summary of genetics but one will need to read another book in conjunction with this one. It is great for quick reference and will suit students well as a study aid, as the authors give a set of key notes at the beginning of each chapter. The authors avoid any discussion of highly advanced topics, but instead emphasize the raw basics. However, they don't leave out some of the more exciting topics, such as population genetics, cloning, gene therapies, and the human genome project. The order of presentation is logical, with the properties of DNA beginning the book, with Mendel's laws explained based on the genetic code. In addition, this reductionist approach to explaining the biology of organisms is one that is most compatible with the requirements of sequence analysis and algorithms in computational biology. As such, this is a good set of notes for mathematicians who are moving into the area of sequence analysis and need a background in genetics."

+17443,1,Overrated!,I read through these 4 volumes 33 years ago when I came to England because many of my fellow students raved about them.The Hobbit is mildly amusing story suitable for children.The LOTR is rather dreary boring tale which requires a lot of perseverence to complete. I have not re-read it since unlike other novels that I have re-read multiple times purely because a good work of literature improves on re-reading.If you want to read a true epic with complicated human characters try reading a retelling of the Mahabharata.

The top of the bulldozer has 6 buttons, all of which do different things...but the 2 buttons that make the truck move forward or backward no longer work correctly. the sound goes off like the truck is moving, but it just sits there. sometimes with a little help it'll move, but this is not how it was designed. I even tried brand new batteries. there is no information about how to contact the manufacturer, Toy State Industrial LTD, out of Hong Kong.

Maybe some people are lucky enough to have time to mindless while away. Mine is precious, and I want lovely stuff to come out of it.So this book is yet another for the charity pile. Lots of mostly useless dust collectors. Can't even say it pushes recycling as so much of the stuff has to be bought. I wish I could find ONE project I'd like to make in it - at least in Alternacrafts, which is almost on the same level, I did. Problem is, I like things that are useful, attractive, and well finished. I like to recycle and reuse, and do it all the time - but I don't like to make trashy stuff. Oh well."

+17449,2,A Standout Golf Book!,"Paging through this book it doesn't take long to recognize that Golf Training is no ordinary golf book. Instead of the usual stroke savers and swing tips common to the mass of generic golf books out there, Golf Training digs deeper into the fundamentals of mental training, fitness training, developing a good swing, and the keys to effective practice. This latter subject of ""how to practice most effectively"" is powerful, practical, and backed by what seems to be sound sports science. The author has done her research, and it shows in this clear, authoritative text. Though written by an LPGA pro, I found Golf Training to be a standout book that should help any golfer--male, female, high/low handicap--to play better. This is a glossy book, with many great action and instructional photos that support the text. A classy book and a great read!"

We use them a lot -- and I expected more.Also, they don't give up the natural oils of the rinds in the dishwasher, and end up having to be washed by hand periodically. The small bowl shape is a real mess to try and clean. I'm going with stainless steel next time."
+17451,1,Simply Awful,"Our hero (and I use the term loosely) is one of the most irritating men I have ever read about in a romance novel. Not only is he constantly insulting Olivia, but he actually sneaks into her room, rifles through her belongings and reads her journal. INEXCUSABLE. And Olivia actually refers to him as ""charming"". If someone had so little respect for me that they would invade my privacy in such a manner, I would be hard pressed not to assault them physically. Anyone who finds Neville ""adorable"" has a screw loose. He doesn't strike me as particularly vulnerable, he comes across as insufferably cocky. If I was Olivia, I would sell my childhood home and move as far away from him as I could get. What a jerk. His wartime experiences (which we learn about on the LAST PAGE of the book) do not excuse his annoying, insulting, disrespectful and UNheroic behavior. This book can be summed up in a four letter work: YUCK"
+17452,2,The kind of reporting you want to see,"I've been reading hundreds of articles about the war in Iraq. The Long Road stands out in that crowd. It's a story about B.D, the Doonesbury character who loses his leg in an explosion near Falluja. I'm not an expert on war and war casulties, but to me it seems that G.B Trudeau has managed to get the psychology right, B.Ds reactions as well as the family's. It's a very touching story, and it makes you understand that there will be a lot of people in U.S with a long road home, a long time after the war."

+17454,1,The Donovan Legacy,"I LOVE Nora Roberts. Very disappointed with this whole series. Tried to read the first and second parts of this book...wasn't even intrigued enough to look into the third section. Just my own opinion...wasn't aware of these fantasy types from Ms. Roberts. Do not like this type of story line..at all. There's fiction and then there's just plain hokey.......... I'll stick to Ms. Roberts with a plot, such as Carnal Innocence...a good story with some sizzle!"

+17456,1,Misleading cover,I was excited to see this but you can't judge a movie by the cover. I was captured by Robin Williams and all the great headliners on the cover. But after watching the entire movie I found that none of the words applied. (for me)

+17458,2,"Avril Lavigne's ""Let Go"" CD","This CD captures everything about Avril! I know she has another one, but her music is fantastic, depressing, rockish, and easy to move to all at the same time. The best songs are probably Nobody's Fool, which mixes rap with rock, and Sk8er Boi, a very rockish tune."
+17459,2,Impressive!,"This movie, although not perfect, is pretty close! Speed came near the brink of perfection, and Speed 2 took a step back, even though it was just a baby step. Sandra Bullock reprises her role, and does so fantastically, though Keanu Reeves isn't there this time, and Jason Patric is filling his shoes this time around. He does so acceptably, and although he's not terrific, he's not unbearably painful to watch either.The action scenes make up for the loss of Keanu Reeves, and William DaFue also makes a nice villain, with his evil eyes and tone of voice. Bullock seems to have a better grip on things this time, as she is definitely more helpful this time around, elbowing criminal's in the face and sawing through doors instead of having a criminal strap bombs to her chest. In my opinion, although it's clear that nothing can beat the first Speed, Speed 2 still gives us some pretty good entertainment, despite its very minor flaws."
+17460,1,How can you make a female vampire movie so un-erotic?,"I honestly don't see how it's possible to make a film about a female vampire preying on other women and have it turn out this lame. The plot was confusing enough, but that wouldn't have bothered my had the girl-girl scenes been hotter. Instead we've got one goth girl kind of flirting with this other very attractive girl in a bar, and then there's another disjointed story involving a female vampire engaged in a really weak lesbian scene with another girl. And, of course, they add some guys just to complete the lack of overall eroticism. Clearly, here's an idea for a potentially really good lesbian vampire story that was watered down by a producer or director who didn't care for the whole lesbian-theme and so instead turned it into this unexciting piece of garbage. Two stars for the attractive female casting and brief female nudity."
+17461,1,"Not worth it, but here's the one that so is...","Working socks on two circular needles is great for socks. But this book does nothing to help the person who wants to be able to create socks for multiple sizes and then experiment with design and needle size or yarn or just want to do more than the few patterns in the book.So I suggestSensational Knitted SocksThis book is incredible. You can use the same pattern to knit on 4 DP needles, 5 DP needles, and 2 Circular needles. All the instructions are clear and concise. Plus the book allows you to make 1000's of different types of styles of socks. Combine different patterns to get great socks and challenging projects."
+17462,1,So much fun but broke within 2 weeks,"Oh how my 2 and 4-year-olds loved this toy. And I thought it was just fabulous out of the box but the motor is so noisy, it is quite shocking. This same motor burned out within 2 weeks of buying this. My kids still played with it for the rest of the summer, using a bucket to pour the water up top after the motor broke. They loved it THAT much.If the motor was better, this toy would be such a winner. Step2, if you read this PLEASE fix the motor. We'll buy this again in a heartbeat if you do."

And I'll tell you one thing.....the game loads an awful lot! That's my only complain. Other than that, the game is a definate get!"
+17464,2,Giant light in a small package,"I bought several of these for gifts and the receivers are happy. It's very well constructed and palm size. For the ladies it can be carried in the purse and makes a great light to walk to the car in a parking lot. The brightness would temp blind an attacker if the need arose.With the 21 LED's it gives off a very bright light and covers a larger area that you would expect. If you desire a small, well made, bright flashlight that you can depend on, this is the one."
+17465,1,HEED THE WARNING!,"Can't add much to what's already been waxed, but do agree with the negative contingency. This book is hyperbole and more or less either a Prosthelytizing tool or a way to spread hatred and xenophobia. Well done Mr. Roth...or is that Rothchild!"
+17466,2,Great book,"Well, I think a lot of people have said it, so I will keep it brief. I wish there was an index. There is a lot of English explaining and no exercises or memorization drills, so the information is just thrown out there. There is a LOT of information and good tips on when and how to use things, and it's very readable. Maybe some day they will add an index???"
+17467,1,Keep searching,"I realize that this shredder comes with a bottom of the barrel price, but even for $19, one would expect that it would at least perform the functions claimed on the box - it doesn't. It is a piece of junk. It doesn't sense paper when inserted, it keeps spinning indefinitely after shredding because the paper doesn't fall completely from the shredder, and it simply does a horrible job shredding and leaves nearly intact sheets at the bottom of the bin.This is certainly one of the cheapest shredders out there, I am not sure you could beat the cost, but spend a few more bucks and get one that actually works. Fellowes really should be ashamed of themselves for this model. I spent about $20 more on the Royal VF700 and love it."
+17468,1,"An OK 500 page book. Unfortunately it's over a 1,000","Clancy eventually offers his usual tense, involving, techno-fare at the end of the book. To get there, however, Clancy forces the reader to wade through reams of tedious, repetitive, and shallow drivel. TC's command of the the technology of warfare stands in sharp contrast with his command of almost anything human. The Chinese are portrayed as unimaginative drudges led by Klingon-like Maoists whose only relaxation appears to be sexual abuse of the office help. When he isn't swearing like a sailor with his old military buddies, whining about how much he hates his job, or amateurishly plunging the world into nuclear war, Jack Ryan spends most of his time bumbing cigarettes and hoping his wife won't find out because she is a surgeon and might emasculate him. Apparently, no joke or shallow observation is too lame for repetition after repetition.TC needs stick with what he does best, because, if this book is any example, he can't do much else."

+17470,1,Jin-boring,"This film was disappointing, overrated and terrible! I liked the look of the federal police costume and the animation was about 7.5 out of 10. But be warned, the action is 1 out of 10! I could not believe how boring this movie was! I was expecting a cool action film concept; this was way off the mark. The dialog was so boring and monotone I fought very hard to stay awake! I felt like someone was telling me a lullaby. The DVD artwork for the movie showcases the cool police armor but the armor could have been left out of the movie and it wouldn't have changed the movie at all? It was only in the movie for about 15 minutes and was very poorly developed in my opinion. It was like some gimic the artists used to trap people into watching the movie?"
+17471,2,This book helped me in many ways,Not only did this book help me improve my SAT essay but also provided material that has helped me in my writing for school projects.
+17472,1,I couldn't even finish this book!,"This book has been around for so long I finally decided to pick it up after such great reviews and recommendations from others. I found this book to be of NO help whatsoever. The stories in the book in my opinion have nothing to do with anything and the repetitive speaking is what actually made me not even want to continue reading. The entire book is just saying the same thing over and over and over again but in a different way, actually sometimes the same exact way. Page 1 of a book should not say the same thing as page 200. I just was really tired of all the same things being said I had to stop reading."
+17473,1,What a disappointment,"When I ordered this product, I thought I was ordering an identical product to the one that came with the game. I was sorely disappointed. This product is almost impossible to use. All I did was slip and slide around on it, nearly falling more than once. This product is dangerous at best. I'm trashing it."

But it was just cold from being in the delivery trucks for a few days and after it warmed up it works great.This camera takes nice pictures and I couldn't be happier with it's performance.You don't need to spend a lot of money to have a nice camera.I give this five stars, now!"
+17476,2,Love the china,"I've sently purchased 3 boxes of the Loft china. I love it, it's a good classic design. But beware that the bigger plates might not fit your dishwasher or your cubords. It didn't fit our normal cuboards in our case. Luckly we could free up some space in our corner cabinet. But when you're having a dinner for a few people I'm sure you'd prefer if they fit in the dishwasher. So measure first, and maybe consider buying the pieces separatly so that you can choose a smaller since on the dinner plates."
+17477,2,BASIC AND EXCELLENT,"When I listen to a CD, I'm focused on four basic elements: The production, the vocal performances, the lyrics, and the instrumentation. Production is clear, crisp, and a sonic treat. Vocals are great and match up perfectly w/the songs and lyrics. The harmonies are outstanding. Lyrically, there will be two types of listeners -- those who can relate, and those who are in denial. As far as instruments go, these guys (and a girl) are world class. As far as the comments I've read about them "" . . . not finding their voice . . . "" or "" . . . needing a theme . . . "", I have no idea what they're talking about. THe CD is snapshots of life, very basic, and excellent. Get it!"
+17478,2,Genuine Pulitzer Prize material,"This is a thorough biography of the stubborn Charles Sumner, once the toast of both aristocratic England and the Boston Brahmins alike, but who is best known for getting his head bashed by Preston Brooks right on the Senate floor in 1856. Donald's 1960 work is a good, although not great, read and better than his more recent Lincoln biography, another Pulitzer Prize winner. (Youthful exhuberance, perhaps?) If you need any evidence of its staying power, check out the price tag that mirrors much more recent work. The demand remains high for good material, and Donald's biography is just that."
+17479,2,Good for what it is,"This is a very good medical micro book for someone who needs a reasonable complete and accessible reference. It's not a definitive micro book. It's not ""Clinical Microbiology made ridiculously simple"" either. I find micro really painful as a general rule. I'd never sit down and read this book from cover to cover. That said when I need to know about a particular bug this book generally tells me everything I'd want to know in an organized and understandable fashion."

+17482,2,unexpected and intelligent,"With apologies to Seabiscuit, this may be the best read of the past year. Dan Brown exhibits a dramatic flair for the ""intelligent mystery"". The best thing about this book and it's author is that the dialogue or science is never ""dumbed down"" for the audience. The highly original premise of this book, when combined with factual groups and real locations, makes for a very compelling read. If you liked this book, you should check out the authors prior work Angel & Demons."

I am very pleased so far, I will be going on a trip in about a month, I'll give an update.The only reason I don't give this camera 5 stars is: it does not have a FOCUS ASSIST LIGHT. And also I'm not finding a ""macro mode"".Does anyone out there know if this camera has a macro mode?? If so, I would love to hear from you. sswaney@uusd.net"

I am disappointed to say the least!"
+17485,1,Anti-White Propaganda,"Anti-white propaganda (Benito Cereno, anyway). It's well constructed but that only makes it worse because of how anti-white it is. It can be seen as an early manifestation of ""Passover Syndrome."" Look it up (""passover syndrome"") for a laugh and/or a good cry because as a former white anti-white who grew up in a very anti-white household, I can tell you it is, sadly, 100% accurate."
+17486,2,In search of the holy grail.,"In this book, Lovejoy has been told by a nice old man that he has access to the real Holy Grail! Lovejoy doesn't believe him (Do you think he was just born yesterday?), but when his new friend is murdered, Lovejoy knows that there may be something more to this. And at the very least, someone has to avenge poor Henry's death. One thing about a Lovejoy story - they are never boring. The reader picks up all kinds of info on antiques, and the weapons that are actually used in the story are always something new and unique. These books are delicious! Lovejoy is such a genuinely crooked, but loveable hero, that he captivates you as you read. It may be difficult for some to get beyond the British slang, but that too is charming in these little gems."
+17487,1,Very hard to get to work,"Well, as a Windows application programmer myself, I usually get any new software to work under 15 minutes. I was ""humbled"" by my experience with SystemWorks Pro. It would install fine, but unexpectedly exit right after the startup. No error messages, no warnings, nothing. Symantec knowledge base offered 4 various fix options (one of the most popular articles on the site!), but none of those worked. I guess the problem hit my ""vanity"", so I sat there for the next hour or so until I solved it (basically removal of every trace of any other Symantec product from the XP system). Finally, it worked. Unfortunately, once it started, it knocked-out my Outlook e-mail (""server could not be located""). Turning off e-mail virus checking completely did NOT help the problem. LiveUpdate reported internal errors, so no chance of updating. That did it for me. Uninstalled and things are back to normal. Two stars instead of one because SpeedDisk actually worked."
+17488,1,"Jerry Baker's Green Grass Magic: Tips, Tricks, and Tonics for Growing the Toe-Ticklinest Turf in Town!",This book is outdated. It utilized terms and procedures that are either extinct or are a thing of the past. Most municipalities have banned the use of phosphorus and the like. I've also discovered that a lot of the tonics Jerry discusses are regurgitated several times throughout to book and many do not describe the coverage of the tonic (my idea of run-off may be different from someone else). This is a useful book; I just would not have paid more than $10 for it.

I dumped that dog..I receive more AUTOMATED virus definition updates from PC-Cillin in ONE DAY than I used to get in a WEEK from Norton..Things change and products either keep up with the times or they don't ..

+17493,1,Big disapointment,"I have owned 3 Litter Maid litter boxes, and when the last one wore out, I bought this ScoopFree automatic box. I am very disappointed. Within a few months the rake stopped working. Also, it allows feces to collect behind the rake, keeping them in the box. The cartridges are just thinly plasticized cardboard, and the urine soaks through the plastic and into the cardboard. Far less than I had hoped for. I thought the use of the litter crystals was a good idea because it reduces the amount of waste created by clumping litter. Next time I will go back to Litter Maid, it is a far better designed automatic box."

She has had Princess lessons, and has also just graduated from college.Queen Clarisse, Mia's grandmother, wants to step down so that Mia can become Queen but the royal ad visors say that she can not be Queen until she is married. There is another hiccup also. Viscount Maybrey wants his nephew Nicholas Devereaux to be King since he also has royal ancestry. The advisers say they will give Mia one month to find a husband and then she can become Queen.Mia is given a list of suitable husbands (one of which was Prince William) and she picks Andrew Jacoby, Duke of Kenilworth. They get engaged to be married, but Mia finds herself falling for Nicholas instead (even though she cannot stand him.) Things come to a head at Mia and Andrew's wedding. What happens after? Watch the movie.This is a very good sequel to The Princess Diaries and Anne Hathaway and Chris Pine (who plays Nicholas) are great."
+17496,1,Saving Private Ryan blu-ray,"First off I this is the greatest war movie of all time. If you haven't seen it you need to. With that being said the blu ray version has horrible video quality. I have the ""fixed"" blu ray addition with the yellow UPC. The audio appears to be fine but the video quality during the invasion scene has a white hue and streaks. My copy shows streaks on the same scene as Robert Clark Kirchner pic located in the customer's image section of the page. I don't recommend getting this blu ray until the studio fixes the video."
+17497,1,Read this book together with Dan Neuharth's book,"Al Neuharth's son, Dan Neuharth, has written a book called: ""If You Had Controlling Parents: How To Make Peace With Your Past and Find Your Place In the World"" [...]If you read the son's book first and then read this book, you will find Al Neuharth's view of himself as ""lovable"" quite a fantasy. The son's book is excellent help for adult children of narcissistic parents, and quite well reviewed, unlike this book.I'm not sure that success in business or publishing even requires the enormous betrayals Al Neuharth performed to others in his industry or to his family."
+17498,1,Boring and a Waste of Time,"Had I not spent money on this book, I would not have read it. In fact, I almost feel entitled to some remuneration for the amount of time I wasted trudging through its almost 500 pages. Not only was the plot dull, the premise uninteresting and the setting uninspired, the characters left me feeling absolutely cold. The lives of an insipid, whiny woman and dull, shell-shocked man converge -- big deal. Who cares? Take out the eccentric weirdos who cross paths with the couple, and you have a novel I would not have been able to finish even had I been paid. Not to mention the fact that the ending was one of the lamest I have ever encountered, and believe me, I have read a lot."
+17499,2,Great,"I loved this book. It was fascinating to read, both funny and heartrending at times. I highly recommend it."
+17500,1,Boring,"How can a book mostly about murdering be boring? By making it read like a catalog. Sure, the author was trying to set a scene of the self-absorbed consumer by using the style, but I just found it tedious and uninteresting."
+17501,1,"stick with the classic ""the bad seed"" instead","this must have seemed like a great idea at the time,""cast culkin against type as a killer child and show his range as an actor"". the problem is his range is all the way from a to b.this movie never explains how or why the boy turns killer and asks us to except one too many ""chance"" happenings. in the end all we get is this ""thriller""(and i use the term very loosely)that thinks just the idea of culkin as a killer is thrilling."

It is so dark at times that images are almost impossible to distinquish. I don't know if it is how this film was originally released or in the copying of the original the reproduction was of such poor quality. I honestly would like a refund. Thank you.

+17506,1,Not good. Not good at all.,"I used to be a huge fan of the Cardigans. I even liked Gran Turismo's darker direction. But this....this is nothing. It's completely uninspired, practically every song is in A minor, and the album as a whole is ridiculously slow and monotonous. This is the Cardigans, sans whimsy, charm, and unique composition. A shell of their former self."
+17507,2,"I Tried Boost, and Now I Use it Almost Every Day","I decided to try boost, as a supplement, and instead of taking adult vitamins. I have tried the vanilla and it is pretty good, but I prefer the chocolate. The only reason I don't give it five stars is because the texture is a little thick for me. I always add a little milk to it. It fills me up for breakfast, and keeps me from eating junk food all day.Pros:Vitamin PackedStorage on the shelf for at least a yearFillingTastes goodCons:Little thickWatch out for some of the vitamin content if you are taking certain medicationsI also do subscribe and save on Amazon, it is a lot cheaper, and I have it when I need it. Great product for food storage."

I ones that I paid 98 cents for from Wal Mart do much better than these. These are really to me disappointing."
+17509,2,worked for me,My baby did slide down the incline the first few times until I realized that I could fold a thin blanket and place it under the bottom edge of the foam pad which put in upturn to the end (place it so it ends up just under baby's butt) and it kept him from sliding down. Now he loves it. Sleeps great and keeps him feeling snuggly and he doesn't flail his arms as much. I put a soft fleece blanket over it and he lies on top of this which keeps it from feeling cold when I lay him down.
+17510,2,Great Ideas for Garden Design,"Complete Garden Planner is an excellent resource for gardeners who need design inspiration. Most gardeners come to desgin backwards, meaning that they start planting things they fall in love with only to find thay have created an incoherent mess! I know because I've been there. This book is an excellent guide down the garden design path. It will help you bring order to your yard or jungle and create something truly worthy of the word ""garden."""
+17511,2,SATAN IS REAL,"This is country gospel, pure and redolent as the ever blossoming banks of the mighty river of Jordan. Ira and Charlie Louvin tender God's word in nervous but beautiful aching harmony, like two falling angels pleading to rise. Their songs are sermons to themselves and fellow sinners reprimanding all unchaste impulse and the knowing twitch of an unwholesome eye. Highly recommended to brothers and sisters intrested in redemption."
+17512,2,Different but interesting,"I really enjoy this CD, although after having heard Sarah sing classical music and new agey stuff such as in ""Dive"", it took me a while to get into ""Fly"". This particular CD proves that Miss Brightman is an incredibly versatile artist. The only thing that I regret is that in some songs her voice doesn't really come out well. Having such a marvelous voice is there any reason to let it drown in the music ?"

I do however enjoy the physics modelling and gameplay. If you brake while leaned over in a curve the bike will tend to stand up/run wide (very much like my own road going sport bike). The arcade modes are probably too hard for most but the career mode (Riding Spirit) is tonnes of fun. Now if they could spruce up the graphics, add some online play, and improve the soundtrack..."

Although the beginning was a bit slow, I soon came to love each person in this book, and wished that I could be there to meet them. This is a gentle book, a good one, and one that I will remember. There is a special quality in a book when you feel you know the people there...you want to meet them and speak with them. These people...I would like to share a cup of tea, or a soda with them.Now that I have found this author, I look forward to reading her previous books, and of course, her next."
+17518,2,Can't get more bang for the buck.,"I'm not an audiphile, but this system seems to sound very good to me - especially for the price. I had been looking at systems for the last few months, and most of the lower end HTIB systems were missing one feature or another. This unit plays anything I throw at it - even plays our home-burned DVDs flawlessly. Future compatability is guaranteed with progressive outputs too.

+17520,1,Sherbert or frozen yogurt in every recipe!,"I was very disappointed to find sherbert or frozen yogurt in nearly every recipe, more than 55 of the 60. I was looking for healthly drink recipes, which I've gotten from several other smoothie recipe books. If I wanted sherbert or frozen yogurt, I'd just eat that and not go through the trouble of mixing up a smoothie. If you want to snack on sherbert with mix-ins, the recipes probably taste very good, and the pictures are attractive. I prefer the fresh and frozen fruit smoothies, making this book pretty useless for me."
+17521,1,Was great until the handle broke off!,"We used this mostly to reseal bags and only occassionally to vacuum. I had purchased the bags and canisters and wine corks and jar sealers, etc.. to use with this product, only to have the handle (required to seal it) break off! I am very disappointed, and their website offers no information on how to get it repaired after the rebate runs out. This was an expensieve investment that is now worth nothing. It is not a quality product."
+17522,1,"Tough Exterior, Cheap Interior","I was really hoping that this case was going to be nice. The exterior shell of this case is very hard and looks great. However, I had a buckle that did not work fasten properly when I got mine.The interior of the case is cheaply made. There are two bow holders, but they are nothing more than strips of velcro that have been stapled to the interior. Yes, you can see the staples. The compartment under the neck of the cello (where you would keep your rosin) is covered by a flimsy, plastic lid that could be easily broken off. Without the weight of the cello inside, the case will flip over since. So you can never prop it open and leave it without it flipping over. Lastly, the top lid is only secured by two cloth straps. Should those cloth straps fray, rip, or pulled away over time, then you have a two piece cello case.All in all, I found this disappointing quality for the price. It was cheaply thrown together by SKB and they should lower the price by about $100."

+17524,2,God's cure for the Worship War,"What does the Bible say about Worship? This book will give you the principles you need to answer that question. The story weaved throughout keeps your attention and gives you practical applications for the 7 simple principles from which the book is centered. You won't be able to put down this life changing book! Both as a worship leader and as a layperson I have been benefited by this book's simplicity and truth. Knowing Dr. Wetmore, the author, confirms that his life is consistent with his words. We need more like this who are willing to expose the struggles of the Evangelical Church. Acknowledging that we have failed to bridge the worship gap will begin the healing process that we so desperately need in our broken or breaking churches. I recommend it to all!"
+17525,1,Bright areas are washed out,"This TV is a great value and offers a nice picture except in the bright areas where it becomes washed out. For example, an HD hockey broadcast displays the ice as completely washed out. You can barely see the lines.I tried adjusting every picture parameter but it doesn't help. In photographic terms, the picture signal could be dropped around 3 stops to be normal. I hope this is fixable because it is very annoying and completely takes me out of the viewing."
+17526,1,Big Let Down,"I love Mariah Carey she is one of my favorite singers, but in this movie I was expecting them to give her a much uplifting part, instead it was kind of sad that she was in a bad relationship and helping some brothers get from one place to the next with confusion as to what was wrong with one of the sick brothers and her husband which is a cop is now looking for her. It was a boring and sad movie. they did not really showcase Mariah singing ability which I was expecting, this should have been just a cable movie, PERIOD."

I asked a friend, who is a bright engineering student with programming experience, to try to try her hand at getting the guest book script to work and she didn't have any luck either. I submitted a question twice to the online Q&A forum over 3 weeks ago and it has yet to be posted, nor have I received any acknowledgement that the message was received. In my opinion this book fails on all counts. I advise beginners to look elsewhere."

The characters were interesting but the one liner byplay was annoying and after reading other reviews I almost want to read Fear Nothing... and I might if I ever find the morbid curiosity to finish the last twenty pages of Seize the Night.

+17537,1,caution,"I purchased this costume for my 4 and a half year-old son and he loved it the minute he saw it.HOWEVER, the minute he put on the mask he had a scratch under his eye and his chin from the CHEAPLY made mask.The edges are dangerously sharp, so please warn your child when they play with it.I had to take some clear tape and smooth out the eye holes and the chin and nose of the mask to make it less dangerous.The costume itself is super thin and it is already unraveling.I was hoping it would last until the 31st of October, but there is no way it will.It is poorly made and my son dresses up in it all the time.CAUTION:If you decide to purchase this costume for your child, examine the mask for sharp edges around the eye, nose, and mouth/chin opening.My son loves it. However, I would NEVER buy this again, nor would I recommend that anyone buys it. It is not worth the price."
+17538,2,This Book is Great!,"I got this book from the library when my son was two and I was expecting. He loved it! It gave him just enough information to satisfy him and the pictures were great too. I nursed my son and was planning to nurse the new baby too. The breastfeeding pictures helped him to know what to expect from the new baby. As he could still remember nursing, this book helped him to not be jealous of the new baby's need to nurse. I wonder if those who are offended by this book nursed their babies?"
+17539,2,Good Exploring!,"Always a big fan of WWII films I went and saw this film with great things in mind. What I got was great things. First of all the acting was great. Nolte and Caviezel were great men in a bad place. Sean Penn really was the one who put the light on the screen. The film also had a great music score, editing, directing and of course acting. It's great to see Terrence Malick back doing what he does best. And most of all seeing a strong film explain a great conflict that America was wrapped up in. Grade:A-"
+17540,2,"Acronyms, Initialisms and Abbreviations by Mossman","There are approximately 520,000 entries pertaining to acronyms,initialisms, abbreviations, contractions and alphabetic symbols.The work is well-researched. Its contents would be invaluable to any librarian, editor, writer, student, thesis writer oracademician. The contents are not set forth in the dictionary-at least in the organized format presented in the Mossman work.Examples are:o BLI- Butterfly Lovers Internationalo Arch Forum- Architectural Forumo CaAJ- Jasper Public Library, AB, Canadao C&L-; Capital and CountiesIt is worth the price charged."
+17541,1,Oh well...,"You know, before going out to buy this DVD, I read the reviews here. But still couldn't decide.Was it a spectalular performance?Was it a total waste of time?After purchasing it, I can say that it comes closer to the latter. Everything you've read about it: the excessive audience shots, the bad lighting, the self promotion, they're all here.Save your money."
+17542,1,Needs an OFF Button!,My daughter received this toy at her 1st birthday and it is my least favorite toy! There is no off button or volume control and it is very annoying as previous people have said. To be honest I'm not a big fan of Baby Einstein products.
+17543,1,world war stories,The book was easy reading and interesting. I thought the book is overpriced for a paperback and the size.We have heard good reviews about this author who writes of his true experience during World War II
+17544,1,HAD TO RETURN ITEM - TOO BIG,"I had to return this battery that I ordered for my cordless phone.It was too big for my phone and I could not use it.Therefore, I can't say how well this battery works."
+17545,1,Did not work for me,"Well if I allow my small dogs to smell this, they run away from it, BUT when sprinkled around (half the bottle) around the areas where there are rat dropping and the top of the wall (in the attic) where the rats climb up, it does not appear to stop them at all......"
+17546,1,Blah . . .,This series has been done many times. The only things that really differentiate this one are the art and the rather boring plot and acting.
+17547,1,"Better Than Nothing, I Suppose","There's joy indeed in hearing such obscure film melodies as ""Hollywood Party"" and ""My Bluebird Is Singing the Blues"" outside of their celluloid realm, yet I can't help but remain somewhat wistful over the treatment given here. If Miss Klein had opted to sing through her throat, instead of her nose, the results might not only have been happier, but more authentic to the period. I'll never understand the prevalent queer notion that any song from the 20's and 30's requires an imitation of Betty Boop to put it over. Certainly, this affectation was not present in the original recordings. As it is, if you're especially fond of the Broadway revival of ""42ND STREET"" you'll go for this in a big way. If you're a vintage musical fan, though, this is best avoided. On a positive note, the arrangements and musical accompaniment are delightful... but the vocalist is little more than a parody of a 1950's parody of a 1920's/30's vocalist. Pity."
+17548,2,Musical satire,"[For context's sake, I have been reading the Discworld books in publication order. Maskerade is #18.]I can't quite decide where I stand on Maskerade. It pulled liberally from Phantom of the Opera, and I couldn't decide if that was a major feint to throw people off of what was actually going on, or just the vehicle by which things would happen. I knew to expect a major twist to the Phantom plot, which ended up being mildly distracting and led to a bunch of second- and third-guessing. Plus I had the soundtrack stuck in my head for days.There are plenty of references to other operas and works as well, though my unfamiliarity with many of them led to only passing encounters. ""Oh, there's something that's probably another opera in-joke. I bet it'd be funny if I knew what was going on.""Ultimately, though, it was quite amusing, adequately gripping, rather fun, and pushed some recurring characters around in good ways."
+17549,1,Picture Freezes,"I bought this DVD player in December of 2002 and it started freezing during playback about 2 months ago. I hardly used it for the first 6 months and then when our daughter was old enough to watch some of the videos we have, the player starts to freeze and then skip forward. It's very hard to watch the disappoinentment on your daughter's face as she is entrenched in an Elmo video when it freezes and she stares blankly at the screen and then me. I also agree that that the controls are agonizingly slow. Since this is my first DVD player, I didn't realize that until I saw other players. I was going to replace with a Sony, then I started reading some of Sony's reviews and they have similar problems with the playback freezing. Bottomline, don't spend more than $80 on a DVD player, because it will probably be dead shortly after the warranty expires."
+17550,2,I'm agree,"I'm agree with the guys downstairs.Abe here is great,the best work for My Name.To the guy who's looking for Rocks for The Jocks: here in Poland there's a polish version of it. It costs some Zloti,not much. If you want I can send you a copy of it."
+17551,1,MIMI,Okay so there is one great song on this album but honestly there is a lot of hype over the entire album. It honestly sounds as if it was produced very fast and just given great PR to promote it. I can not deny that she has a great voice however the fact of the matter is that the production of the songs for the most part are very boring. She was great during her first and second albums. Im sorry I purchased this based on the hype. :(
+17552,2,A worthwhile read,"This was one of the best books I've read in a long time. Diamant's female characters are fully realized,beautiful and flawed. Neither are they secondary to the men-- they have their own tales and culture that in many ways is completely distinct from their husbands and brothers.This book artfully renders the mother-daughter relationship in a time when no one paid much attentions to daughter or mothers."
+17553,2,Russia and political murder.,"Excellent essay on the use of and the intellectual 'reasoning' behind murder as a means to conquer or to keep political power in Russia.This book covers the whole history of Russia from Ivan the Terrible to Gorbachev.It evaluates brilliantly the writings of well known (Lenin, Trotski, Bakunin) but also of nearly forgotten revolutionaries (Pestel, Netchaev, Morozov, Heinzen and others).The author proves convincingly that the liquidation of former allies, opponents or whole segments of the population was not a characteristic of the Bolshevik regime alone.A brilliant work from the author who predicted that, if the Communist party would lose power in the USSR, the country would fall apart."
+17554,2,A must for anyone interested in British politics,"This is an excellent, highly readable book for anyone interested in the nuts and bolts of British politics. Each constituency is profiled in-depth, and I reach for this book every time a by-election is caused. This new edition is highly welcome, as the old edition was made hopelessly out of date by the 1997 Labour landslide. Buy this book, and you'll know which seats Peter Snow means the next time he says ""Now let's have a look at our Swingometer!"""
+17555,1,Sophomoric,"Some funny bits. Largely junior high humor. Maybe if one was drunk ... (As it happens, the copy I got is also unpleasant to read since it's a musty, old used version.)"
+17556,2,Leap Year - would love more like this!,"One of our favorite ""chick flicks"". Fun movie - wish I had a ""Louie"" to go to Ireland with. Never tire of this movie."
+17557,2,asia review,"This cd was worth the 17.00 dollars,i just purchased it yesterdayand so far i have only listen to the first 7 songs and to me the best is ""sATELITTE Blues,""a very cool rockin track,John Payne has the voice from hell he just belts out every word get every note perfect,next is ""Love Like The Video,""excellent backing vocals.Tthe artwork is very cool,and plenty of liner notes that explain each song.I can't wait to finish listening.Radiostations today wouldn't know how to handle some of these songs.If your like Asia you need to add this to your collection."
+17558,2,warms perfectly,"We bought this warmer after returning the Munchkin brand warmer (which never heated enough). We don't have use for the cooler portion of this product, but the warmer has worked great for my husband, who is usually the one to use it. He hasn't had any problems adjusting the water level and has never had to resort to running the bottle under hot water from the faucet. It takes up more counter space than we'd like, but it works and that makes it worth it."
+17559,1,get faiths and avatars instead,"faiths and avatars and demihuman deities come up with better kits/specialty priests. personally, i prefer that the campaign filler stuff come at the end of the book instead of at the front but that's just me. for me the book didn't seem to ignite an interest in the priest class as much as the other two books."
+17560,2,Definitely worth the shelf space!,"I love this pan! I have the All-Clad stainless line, and bought this pan when my youngest daughter started to like grilled cheese sandwiches. You just can't cook more than one sandwich at a time in a regular fry pan. This pan has plenty of space to cook 4 sandwiches at a time, or 4 pieces of french toast, or 4 eggs... the list goes on and on.My dad came to visit, and was coerced into making pancakes. He had always used a square electric griddle at home, but he gave my griddle pan a try. He liked it so much I gave him one for Christmas! Once again, plenty of space to cook 4 pancakes at a time.The non-stick coating is durable, the food slips right off, and it is easy to wash. That is important, because this pan can't go into the dishwasher. It is also rather heavy, but since I just set it on the burner and cook, that isn't an issue either.Bottom line is that both my father and I are very happy to make room in our kitchens for this pan."
+17561,2,If you want history and great recipes........,"This was my first Jessica Harris cookbook, but I now own all of them. In the early 90's it was not so common to include history as precursor to a recipe, but it has always been her style. A great beginning cookbook which embraces the African Diaspora."
+17562,1,Pokemoron :(,"Here is the number one sleeping pill in the world. If you have trouble sleeping play this game (not that it should be considered a game, games are supposed to be fun). It was boring boring boring. The graphics were horrible the plot was stupid. You can't catch them all unless you waste money on buying blue, yellow, and red. They have now come out with gold, silver, and cyrstal so you can try to catch more creatures. The game was so easy that I was able to beat it even though I am a novice. The piont is to beat the tar out of stupid nonexistent monsters to train and battle them so you can become number one so other trainers can try and beat up your pokemon. I think this game is a waste and anyone who buys it is going to ultimatly come to the same conclusion as I have. Don't waste your money as the craze will die down soon."
+17563,1,Wish I'd Read Reviews Before Buying,"Purchased this vacuum just after Christmas, wish I'd read the reviews first. I'm 64 so I've had quite a few vacuums and this is the least user friendly one I've ever owned. The only thing good about it is the retractable cord. It doesn't pick up dog hair very well and after emptying, it's a pain to get back together. I'm taking it back to Target."
+17564,1,"Except for ""Mac Arthur Park"", pure sludge","Jimmy Webb is an interesting composer. He either writes great songs or terrible ones. There is no middle ground with him. If you have heard his hits, you have heard all of his valuable work. Mac Arthur park was a hit, and, deservedly so. It is musically captivating. Though the lyrics have been made fun of, they make sense to me. A wedding was meant to take place in Mac Arthur park and the woman stood him up at the altar. That explains the (wedding) cake being left in the rain. It is a song of loss. It is a great song. The rest of this album is sludge to my ears. Lots of syrupy strings, little melody, lyrics that try too hard to be poetry and end up sounding like a bad greeting card. Richard Harris can barely sing, but his voice DOES work on Mac Arthur park. The rest of this album stinks."
+17565,1,Huh?,"Beyond the lead issue..this is bizarre. Gummy bear vitamins? Unless the child is old enough to understand the difference, what is to stop them from mowing down regular gummy bears because they are under the impression they are good for them? The same with cough syrup suckers, it is medicine, not candy. I would never give these to my kids"
+17566,2,Unbelievable!!!,"This is an unbelievable movie. I saw it at the IMAX theater and was blown away and now the DVD is almost as good. I want to make a couple of things clear, however. You people who are dogging this DVD for not being widescreen need to understand that the actual IMAX format is not widescreen. It is 4:3, not 16:9. It is IMAX for a reason. This movie and other IMAX movies WILL not and SHOULD not be shown in widescreen format, because that is not the original IMAX format. You people should go see an IMAX movie and notice the square shaped picture and not the rectangle that normal movies are shown. Get a clue. Another thing, making a 3-D DVD is not as simple as throwing in a pair of paper glasses. You must have special equipment including a 3-D projector and special electronic glasses. Even then it will not be the quality of IMAX. Back to the DVD itself. You will not be dissapointed. Unbelievable picture and sound quality makes for the ultimate DVD experience. You will love this movie."
+17567,1,Where's the action?,"The book's cover is deceptive. You see a picture of Saya, the ""Immortal Vampire Slayer."" In the nearly 300 pages of text, you see Saya 3 total times. She gets 5 total pages of time in the lime light. The rest of the book is spent following a 15 year old Japanese high school student who is protesting the oppressive conservative Japanese government. There's a lot of filler in here. In fact, the entire book seems like a bunch of random research papers put together (inaccurately) on how to dispose of a body, the evolution of the species, and how protest and anti-establishment organizations work. I kept reading, hoping that something would come of it, but in the end I should have just stopped and saved myself the random philosopical musings of an anime director trying his hand as a writer."
+17568,2,awesome cd,"i've been a fan for a few years now and this cd is what really got them on the map. do yourself a favor though - go see a live show, b/c thats what dashboard is all about!try and find an authentic one if poss. though, all the teenie boppers have started coming to chris' shows since he got all the mtv publicity :-("
+17569,2,Great Company,"Good and courteus service, great product, great company and nice people to do business with, Sure would buy again if needed."
+17570,1,Boring and pretentious . . .,"I have forced myself to read over half of this novel and am going to have to give up. Diane Johnson's writing style tries too hard to be clever and ends up sounding silly and pretentious. Her characters are two-dimensional and dull and what little plot developed early on surrounding a mysterious murder just about disappeared halfway through the book. I have not read ""Le Divorce,"" but based on other reviews here, I will give it a try. It can only be better than this mediocre novel."
+17571,1,It's ok,"The story itself seems like it could be interesting if only all the characters were defined more. It's like reading a book where everyone is played by Kevin Costner. The main character, who is 17, speaks like a noble as does his 14 year old street urchin sidekick. I mean if you always thought fresh prince of bel air would have been good had the cast of 90210 been in it instead then you shouldn't have any trouble getting into the characters. I want to know how the story ends but I'm not going to pay for the sequel / shrug"
+17572,1,Terrible!!,"In my opinion, ""Islands"" is an unreadable piece of work. I found it completely contrived, the characters one dimensional, and the dialogue ridiculous.I have read and enjoyed every Anne Rivers Siddons book written, with the exception of this book. I can't really put my finger on it, but this book made my skin crawl!!"
+17573,1,waste of money,"My son, a big Stars Wars fan, was so excited to get this toy. After about 5 minutes, the limbs fell apart. So you pay money for a piece of junk. Do they make action figures like C3PO that do not fall apart so easily? My son is a good sport, but what a waste of money and a a frustrating experience for a child and parent"
+17574,1,Friday,"It's good for a view every now and then, never gonna be a classic but I like horror flicks. It was also only 4 bucks....and Bluray."
+17575,2,underappreciated gem by a rock n roll legend,"60's icon van morrison has a devoted ""cult"" following but is deserving of much more. most people know him by ""Gloria"" -- an early hit by his band Them -- and perhaps by ""Moondance,"" a makeout classic.the truth is that this prickly, deeply spiritual irish performer has been releasing great albums for 5 decades, a record that can be matched by very few of his peers.this album, which per above is not well known, is a very accessible, beautiful distillation of van's spiritual side. ""rave on"" and ""higher than the world"" are so transporting that they transcend music."
+17576,2,A Very good book,"Written with humor, this book made me look differently at the market. This book is pure-technical. Very good for people that have behavioral problems when it comes to stocks (like i used to have). It teaches a method which is good for people who rather have a ""do or not do"" instead of ""think for yourself"" recipe for success.The only annoying thing is self-promotion and a bit of arrogance by the author, but the new bunch of $$$ in my bank account most certainly make up for this:)Another disadvantage is that this book is not up-to-date.Anyway, i still recommend it as it helped my portfolio a great deal."
+17577,1,Don't bother,"I was soooooo disappointed with this book. It is not easy to follow, and you have to spend a lot of time to find something that might work for you. I loved her Herbs and Things, and used it a great deal. This book however, was to me scattered."
+17578,2,Absolutely perfect!,"The whole collection gives a warm, festive, sitting in front of an open fire, feeling. Augustine(Piano) and Cecil(up-right Bass) composed some of the nicest variations on these familiar Christmas classics I've ever heard. Up-lifting yet un-obtrusive at the same time. There is a similiarity to the ""Peanuts, christmas time is here"" but Augustine and Cecil are an increadible team that play off of each other more effectively.I highly recomend this for Jazz lovers of all fields from Standard to Acid. I personaly am looking for more of thier works. Oh yeah,I forgot, Its just Bass and Piano nothing else!"
+17579,1,Enter cliches!,"I saw this movie after hearing that it was cute and funny and an overall good chick flick. I wish I could kick whoever told me that. It seemed to use every cliche in the book and was VERY predictable. I'm sorry, but I just can't give this more than two stars - and that's only because Matthew is good looking"
+17580,2,Love the bight LED Lights,Works great. Much brighter that other led sensor lights. Lasts about two minutes plus allowing time to access lights or alarms.
+17581,1,"Isle of Dogs, hardcover","I am so disappointed in Cornwell's latest novel. Her characters of Hammer and Brazil are great additions, but they are wasted in this novel. It is a juvenile and uncomfortable read. Talking fish, crabs, dogs, and Crimm's ""submarine"" are just a few of the ridiculous subjects that Cornwell offers her savy readers? What was she thinking and what a shame! For those of us who purchase and read all of Cornwell's books, this was indeed a loser. Patricia, please don't go there again and disappoint your faithful readers."
+17582,2,Wow! You're here!,"Amazing! So you're saying that you actually searched for Chum, and linked to this page? That's far more than 99% of human population ever did for these boys. I do like Chum. And you should too. They're a metal band that is fairly easy on the ears, and draws me into a numb sort of zen state. While the real audio clips of this album sound terrible, you have to listen to an entire Chum song to get the real feeling of it. Dead to the world is nearly impossible to find, and it's a cr*p-shoot as to whether or not Amazon will have it in stock at any given moment. But Chum would really appreciate it if you bought their little album. Thank you!"
+17583,1,"Great Price, Fast Delivery, but disappointing sound quality","I purchased this add on mic in hopes to get a clearer, stronger, and enhanced sound quality from spokesperson doing short range demonstration videos from 6' to 15' range. In the zoom setting the sound intensity and quality was barely equal to but no better than the intergrated unit.In gun mode, the voice from the person speaking directly toward the mic sounded slightly muted and tinny like as though speaking through a tin can. It did though minimize peripheral sounds but at the cost of dynamic quality. In summary the built in speaker in my HDR-SR11 offered a clearer, more dynamic sound than the ECM-HGZ1 under the mentioned conditions. Also must mention that the ECM-HGZ1 feels omniously delicate and vunerable to heavy handed pressure. A NON recommendation for this product, But Amazon.com LLC rocks, fast, reliable order processing, and highly satisfactory delivery efficiency, especially to Honolulu, Hawaii. Aloha !!!"
+17584,2,Great Deal,"The product worked as advertised. You may connect it in parallel directly to the joist, but will need a 2x4 piece of wood if you desire to connect it perpendicular to the beams. The brake works very well - if you suddenly let go of the rope, it immediately stops. I recommend threading the rope through each stage (there are 4 sections) before mounting to the ceiling.One thing that you should know is that it is not really possible to get your bike all the way to the ceiling. I tried placing the clips in different places (i.e. wheels, bar, etc.), but then the balance of the system was lost and it became difficult to raise uniformly. So, be aware if your overhead is tight. You should add about 6-10 inches onto the height of your bike to determine how low it will hang.There were a lot of higher priced alternatives, but this one worked fine. I started with 2, but will be purchasing more in the future. I highly recommend this product."
+17585,1,Mediocrity at its best,"This book characterizes much of what is wrong with the current way in which text-books are pumped out by authors/academics/publishers to serve as a new yet ultimately qualitatively useless addition to the heap of knowledge in any given field. It is not that the topics presented here are useless, meaningless or anything of the sort, it is simply that the mediocrity with which they are written about and presented to the reader- supposedly a student attempting to learn about these subjects- is apparant on nearly every page.If the mark of someone who truly understands their field of study is their ability to clearly and easily convey and teach it to others, than many of the contributors to this book do not truly understand their field, certainly not to the extent that they should when being held up as the fore front of their academic field. Read or Buy if you must, but turn to others sources for a better reading and learning experience."
+17586,2,Oil Painitng,Has good information it it. I am pleased with this purchase! Well organized and easy to follow.
+17587,2,Another Delightul Time with Agatha!,"If you enjoy the Agatha/Staggerford tales of this author, you are in for a treat here....loved it! I've read all of them, and wish he would write even more, she's such a lovely character!"
+17588,2,J.R.R. Tolkien is awsome.,"Tolkien is one of the best Authors of all time. I have not read this book, but am greatly anticipating it upon it's arrival. I have been searching book stores for quite some time, and give kudos to amazon for having it on thier server. I hope you all enjoy this book as much as I'm going to!A Elbereth Gilthoniel, silivren penna mÃriel o menel aglar elenath! Na-chaered palan-dÃriel o galadhremmin ennorath, Fanuilos, le linnathon nef aear, sà nef aearon!"
+17589,1,Steal this book!,The ex-Conservative Micah Ian Wright bring us this excellent book of posters created by others (Are the orginal artists paid? Who Cares?) and then change/edited by Micah Ian Wright.I especially loved his commentary in the beginning where he tells us how he became a liberal after going to Panama because for that evil evil Bush Sr. Which never did happen. Micah lied...I recommend this book to anyone who wants to know the truth about how loony people like Micah Ian Wright are.Thanks.Hey....you 'do' know the sequal will never come out because of his lying to the publisher about his past? Too funny.
+17590,2,Corrections to Amazon's synopsis,"I would endorse the earlier positive reviews of what I believe to be one of the finest anti-war films ever made but I have to add that it would help if the Amazon editorial review of the film were at least accurate. David Chute's text refers to the war as 'grinding to a close'. The action is in fact set on the Taman Peninsula in late 1943. The ghastliness of the Eastern Front was to rumble on for at least another year-and-a-half. Also he refers to the German 'martinet' played by James Mason. This is quite wrong - Mason's role is that of world-weary, sympathetic and supportive commanding officer. The villain of the piece is Maximilian Schell's Captain Stransky. And such a shame that the summary focuses on one disturbing scene two-thirds of the way through the film when there are so many well orchestrated combat scenes and philosophical confrontations throughout the story."
+17591,1,Icky poo!,"Well, I have been fooled a few times by reviews on Amazon and this happened to be another. The reviews mention a good citrus scent, good cleaning and hydrating power with an economical price. Upon getting the bottle, I opened it up to try the stuff and was unpleasantly surprised. First off, the citrus smell is more a floral vomit citrus smell. I decided to push through it but five days later I found that the smell went from that to a very rancid version of it. I could not believe it, how could this go from bad to worse? Well, it did . Stay away!"
+17592,2,Eldest,"I enjoyed Eragon in book one and was excited to continue the story in Eldest. I was not let down. While it did have a few dry spells the author definitly made up for it. Eragon continues to mature not only with the new found power, but also from a child to a young adult. With so much riding on his being a rider he is faced with many new emotions, one which is love, which of course is hard at any age. Eldest is a great book if you are into dragons, magic, and adventure, but I would suggest you read Eragon first."
+17593,1,Are they serious!!!,"Someone please take this book off the shelves. I have never seen a published book with soo many mistakes. It's almost every other page there is some programming error that could cause a beginner (such as myself) to want to throw their computer out the window, until you snap to your senses and realize it's the book.Look on the bright side at least it makes a good paper weight, booster seat, and you can use the paper for paper airplanes and fires, but it doesn't make a good programming book for beginners."
+17594,1,Great Tool- Terrible Finish,"This tool is great- but the black coating is not. My hands are completely covered in a black, oily substance that is coming off of the tool immediately upon taking it out of the box. It's too bad, because it looks nice, but clearly is not made to withstand even minor use."
+17595,2,Very cute and colorful pictures.,I bought this book for my 18-month old son because he has the Oink! book and it's his favorite. He loves the bright and colorful pages. We read this and Oink! everynight before bed.
+17596,2,Ashlee Simpson,I think this a great album. I love it. She is so real and she sings about real things that go on in life. Shadow is a great song that I think every sister or brother can relate to. Lala is just a wild song that just makes you happy. Autobiography is just a great song that hopefully will be her next sing. But in all I suggest that you buy the album because it is just great. She sings rock and sometimes you can hear pop. She is amazing.
+17597,2,Book of Chance,"I had just finished reading 'The Food of Love' by Anthony Capella since I had nothing to do, but read. Mind you, reading is one of my favorite pastimes.I had recently bought a series of books. The Food of Love was just one of the books I just picked up so I can get that 'three for the price of two' deal at Waterstones in London (British's equivalent of Barnes&Noble;). I wasn't really interested, but it was one of the more interesting options I had. Well, I'm glad I made the right choice! I started reading it last night and I haven't put it down since.If you love food and a little romance, which I am both fond of, it's an excellent book to read. Mr. Capella was remarkably thorough in his description of the rich and textured Italian dishes that the words assails you with a sense of smell and taste that leaves you hungry for more. This book took me by surprise and I'm sure you would not be disappointed."
+17598,2,"THE PERFECT MOVIE RENTAL, BUT NOT FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY","Here is another movie that I was not eager to see but was glad that I had the chance. This story is truly about Sex, Drugs and Rock-&-Roll. It is NOT a family movie though. Being a product of the 80s, I think I was more able to appreciate the subtleties of the story better. Certainly my Mother & Father wouldn't understand it quite as well.What I liked best about the movie is the ending. That is where all the parts come together. That is where we, the audience, really get the opportunity to ""know"" the characters for who and what they are.I don't own this movie and don't really plan on buying it. But I am certainly glad to have seen it..once."
+17599,2,A journey to the center of the brain,"If you enjoy getting into someone else's unusual mind, this book is for you. It's always interesting to find out how someone else truly thinks and feels, but this is done so masterfully by Mark Haddon that we feel we are treated to a scientific, emotional exploration of an autistic brain. The boy in question possesses remarkable gifts in mathematics and certain memory feats, but does not tune into people and the reasons they tick so well. However, he has a strong connection with animals and when a neighbor's dog is mysteriously killed, the boy is upset and needs to find out why. This forms the basis of the plot and from there we get into his journey, both mental and physical, which leads to a highly emotional conclusion. Scattered throughout the book there are amusing illustrations of how his mind works and reacts to things."
+17600,2,"If you liked Politically Incorrect Guide to Islam, Read This","Robert Spencer, the author of the Politically Incorrect Guide to Islam, gave this book a good review, saying ""This is the book to turn to in order to find a group of Muslims willing to stand up against jihadist thuggery and intimidation, and to articulate a sane and civilized alternative to the jihad violence that increasingly threatens the civilized world.""There are points on which I disagree with both Spenser and the contributors to this book, but both books should be read by people interested in this vital issue.I would have preferred to give this book 4.5 stars, but that wasn't an option."
+17601,1,Sent it back,"Despite the ability to adjust speed/sound it was too loud for me! I found it hard to believe some reviewers said it was not loud enough. Amazon was wonderful about the return, though, so it was a good experience overall. Sometimes you just don't know until you try it out."
+17602,1,much ado about nothing.,"I love those 3 stars. Wow, what a cast.All they needed was a plot. My wife and I watched loyally for almost an hour, waiting for some substance or anything actually funny. It never happened. We walked out (turned it off).Perhaps films like this had more cultural context in their own time. But I am old enough to appreciate value in a classic setting. I just didn't see it.Very disappointed...not serious and not funny. I couldn't have cared less about those characters, beautiful though the stars certainly were. All 3 of them were badly miscast in those fluff roles."
+17603,1,Sorry to add to the misery but ..,"Sleep MD did not work. I tried taking it with milk, juice and even coffee. Nothing seemed to bring out the sleeping ingredients. But reading these comments made me a little sleepy which is why I added my own. Good night!"
+17604,2,Fits Great,"I consider myself average, but find that regular condoms are sloppy. The snugger fit condom delivers, as it is form fitting and in my opinion allows for more sensations to come through without that loose plastic bag feeling. As other reviewers have said, it is a little tough to get started on. It does grip at the very well at the base, almost acting like a cock ring.Update (I bought more!!!):The Iron Grip is great for guys who have troubles with slipping out of regular sized condoms during mid stroke. My wife also tells me she can feel my head better as well, maybe it is larger due to the cock ring effect."
+17605,2,Easy But Not Perfect,"This transmitter is easy to use and works well in most circumstances. In my wife's car it's great, listening to my iPod on my boom-box it's great, but listening to my iPod in my car, it's only fair with too many instances of static beaking through the music to make it useable. It's probably got more to do with my car than the transmitter. I have had several devices and this one is the easiest to use. It's particularly good because it doesn't require any batteries."
+17606,2,Great Read!,"Having grown up in New England, many of the names mentioned in ""The Brothers Bulger"" were common in the everyday editions of the local newspapers. But, unlike the coddling that papers such as the Boston Globe have done over the years, this book really hits the brothers hard, especially the ""corrupt midget"" himself, none other than Billy Bulger. Great read - hope that this isn't Howie Carr's first and last book. Well worth the money!"

+17608,1,grainy and color not as good as on other photo paper,"In general I don't recommend borderless paper (at least in HP printers) if you care about where your photo is cropped. It's impossible to know where the image will be cut off. Also, in my printer (HP photosmart C6280), paper in the 4x6 photo tray seems to jam more often than letter-size paper in the main tray.I usually use glossy 8.5x11 photo paper made by Epson and cut out smaller photos when necessary. The colors are better with this epson paper, and I don't see the graininess that appears when printed on to HP 4x6 with tab premium plus photo paper.bottom line - this paper does not produce fine prints even with an HP printer"
+17609,2,Learning About Our World,"Through the hard work of the director and the Ponce family's Circo Mexico how easy it is through this DVD documentary to learn another lesson about how we all share the same dreams and the human willingness to achieve them. Circo Mexico and other circuses of a similar nature offer a real and a positive entertainment for people, easily forgotten, that makes TV and film seem shallow in comparison. Kudos to them in their efforts and to director Schock for his courageous effort to document this piece of history."
+17610,1,"Buyer beware, used items","I really wish Amazon let you distinguish feedback on the order fulfillment vs the product itself. The trimmer I recieved was apparently used before, because there were a few hair trimmings left in the blades. From other reviews, apparently I'm not the only one; maybe ALL of these are used and some are just cleaned better, or looked at less closely by the recipient.I was not ordering a used item, and the item description certainly doesn't say so. This is no reflection on the product itself. Item was from ""Quick E Shop and Fulfilled by Amazon""."
+17611,1,Doesn't Live up to Promise,"This seemed like a great idea, but then I learned from the instructions that you are not supposed to place the remote unit outdoors in the weather! What good is an outdoor thermometer that can't get rained on? Then, perhaps because I placed it in the weather anyway, the remote unit completely stopped functioning after only a few weeks. A total non-starter iin my opinion."
+17612,1,more of the same old same old,"Yet another book from a prolific person who just can't stop using characters not her own. This is uber fiction, in other words, characters - Xena and Gabrielle - who are trademarked and copyrighted to someone else. After this many books, you'd think this writer would want to develop her own original characters, but no, it's just more of the same. Unfortunately, I can't give this the zero star rating it so richly deserves."
+17613,1,"Condensed Version of 2 Volume Set, inaccurate listing","After ordering this edition, I discovered it is a one volume condensed version of the original 2 volume set. The afterword states it has ""slightly less than half"" of the poems found in the original. Whether or not the reader wants to pay 30% of the two volume price for 45% of the content is their call, but the product listing is inaccurate as it stands. Personally, I would have bought the two volume set had I known - few people have a casual interest in 19th Century American poems, and those who do would probably prefer a comprehensive collection. I am not sure why this condensed edition exists, but raspberries to the publisher and Amazon for not making its limited status very clear in title and product listing."
+17614,2,"Wipers work great, watch using pad","The wipers are great. It hasn't rained but once since I got them but they seem to function well. Watch using the alcohol pad, rinse your windshield really well after putting it on or you'll get spots."
+17615,1,Poorly made,The straps were extra long (could probably fit an obese person) and were made of styrofoam - they were NOT supportive or heavy duty at all - not to mention the velcro came off.Do not buy.
+17616,2,Great CD,I love the mixes on this album. Perfect for dinner parties or evening cookout. Listen to it on your veranda and chill to the jazzy beats of mixed in old back in the day artist and new up to date jazz tunes.LUV it.
+17617,1,Caution,Inventive book just make sure your system can handle Xylitol first though as I had a severs reaction to the stuff
+17618,2,Planet Groove,I love the Planet Pop CD it definitely has a great mix of songs from ballads to dance tracks and even songs with latin flavor. It is one of the best europop albums I have heard in a long time. ATC proves talent and with their youthful energy we will be hearing a lot more from them. If you haven't yet definitely check it out!
+17619,2,A passionate and interesting book.,"I had to read this book for English and expected a book that couldn't relate to the struggles teens have to face. However, I was shocked, but delighted in finding that this book managed to write about these problems in a way that was human. The underlaying themes- racism, multiculturalism, fitting in socially, dealing with illegitimicy and tradition, are beautifully dealt with. The way in which she discovers her past helps us to think their may be a future. I strongly recommend this book to everyone."
+17620,1,Boring...,"If this book got summarized in a Newspaper article, it would have been acceptable.But it was a long boring book, that I could not finish..! In summary this books talks about certain Millionaires (who are a majority by the way) who made their furtune by being cheap!"

+17622,1,Not the comedy the trailers speak of.,"This movie is a strict drama. That alone doesn't get it a bad rating, mind you, but the misleading trailers and tv commercials were unfair. My wife, being a teenage mom, expected to see a lighthearted movie about growing up with your kids. This movie is about getting beaten down over and over again for a decision that Drew makes when she is very young, in the end all is grand, but the journey is a mine field of hate, mistrust, and resentment...."
+17623,2,It was great,I had seen the movie when it first appearedND i HAVE BEEN TRYING TO BUY IT EVER SINCE THEN AND NOW i WAS ABLE TO FIND IT AND BUY IT.
+17624,2,The beginning,"They said to me: ""This is the new Tolkien."" So I thought, well, we'll see. But just when I started reading this book, there was no way of stopping me, and since then I've got a problem. I wanted to read all the books about the Riftwarsaga and after them I needed to read the Serpentwar saga as well. Of course, once you're begun, you can't stop yourself and you have to read on. Never have had that before -only exception should be Mist of Avalon.The story begins with Pug, a young boy and his friend Tomas. They just happen to be in the wrong tme on the wrong place, but they're there and - well, it should be stupid to review. It's impossible. Just read it, that's the bet way to know.I have learned much. When Pug is on the other world, when Tomas is being Ashen Shugar. It makes you start thinking about your own life and your own self. Superb. Not only did Tomas and Pug change, this book even changed me."

+17628,1,Modern Times: The World from the Twenties to the Nineties,"The above rating applies to the Kindle edition only. This is an excellent book, which I have read before. But I am appalled at the slipshod way in which the Kindle edition was produced; and the publisher had the audacity to charge $16.99 for it!To start with, the title of this book is ""Modern Times: The World from the Twenties to the Nineties"". The production of the electronic version was so poor, that the title reads ""Modern Timesition: etc."" They couldn't even take the time to check that the title was correct. It looks like they never bothered to run the electronic document through a spell checker as there are many, many obvious errors.For $16.99 I expected at least an accurate reproduction of the printed edition. I'm very disappointed.Toddy"
+17629,2,Possibly the world's best Monster Crab Movie!,"I saw this movie as a young child- I saw it every night for a week!It was featured on one of those old Scary Movie Midnight things when I was visiting relatives in MT. Vernon, NY.My older brother and I were permitted to stay up every night and watch it. We were terrorized and harbored irrational Crab fears for years.To this day- I will laugh and say ""Ha- take that"" as I eat a Blue Crab.My husband does not seem to have the same love for this film that I do, but he has no taste anyway.All of you Crab Monster fearing souls- THIS is the movie for you!"

+17632,2,"Great Game, Slow Cars","Don't buy this game expecting the pulse-pounding, high-speed chases that Grand Theft Auto 3 has to offer. Instead, expect a realistic and almost cinematic Gangster game. This game is enjoyable from the beginning, but gets even better the more you play and the more you reveal the plot. As you climb your way up the Organized Crime Ladder you realize the benefits and consequences of your actions. A great ending as well, I give Mafia 5 stars."
+17633,1,Disappointig,"Having previously read Seduced by Amanda Quick, I was quite eager to purchase another of her books as I thoroughly enjoyed Seduced. But I have to say that I was sorely disappointed with Dangerous. Firstly, there was little or no chemistry between the two main characters, Prudence and Sebastian. They were quite boring and the constant referals to him as the devil himself and the Fallen Angel became quite overbearing and repetitive. Prudence was an annoying berating female that was constantly ordering Sebastian to be mature and to do what she expected him to do. Her constant nagging and outrage made me squirm and dislike her even more. I could not see how they came to be in love because there was no depth to their relationship...."

I would rate this devicea P.O.S."
+17636,2,Great for the office and beyond,"The practical concepts offered in this book simply make sense. On a business level, these real-life action items provide great ideas to truly motivate my employees. I have to believe that if company leaders would truly embrace these principles they would not only enjoy more passionate employees but they'd also enjoy the bottom line impact. On the personal side, I also appreciate the hints that translate into being a better husband and dad."

+17641,2,A delightful work of FICTION.,"I read this book for what it was...a wonderful book of fiction, about mythical characters. But on another level, Santa and Pete is a story about family, giving, closeness....values anyone, black white or whatever, must treasure. I sincerely wish those who would blast the book for being ""historically inaccruate"" would recognize it for what it is -- a ""novel of Christmas Past and Present"" loosely based on historical events -- and get over their own insecurities/prejudices/attitudes."

+17644,2,The absolute Best Bottle!,"I would recommend these bottles to anyone, whether they Breast or Bottle feed.

+17646,2,A Great Movie All Around!!,"This is the best romantic comedy I know. It's realistic and very light hearted. The DVD does not have great features, but the basics are there and the movie is good enough to overcome what the DVD lacks. Worth the buy."
+17647,1,so thin you can see through them,This set only made it through one washing before it started coming apart. My dog jumped up on the bed & her nails cut thru the sheets. That is a first time that has happened to me - even with sheets with much fewer thread count. I am extremely disappointed in the quality of these sheets - don't waste your money on them!
+17648,2,"Great, Except When It's Not","I recently picked this up when its 10-year-old predecessor finally wouldn't work any more (it was a serial port version that couldn't successfully make the transition to the USB world any more, even with an adapter). The first thing that impressed me about the new one was how smooth and slick the movement was, and how fluid the curves. This tablet actually performed as the previous one advertised, and I loved it!At first.However, this tablet does have one major problem: the scroll sliders. These are a pair of touchpads on either side which, if they get bumped just a certain way, go nuts and start scrolling incessantly and do not stop until either a) you disable them, or b) you manage to reboot your computer even though every menu is scrolling up and down like crazy.This was easy enough to fix, by simply disabling the scroll sliders. But it was a pretty big bug in what is otherwise a very nice package. Once that's fixed, the tablet is very good."

+17652,1,Disapointing,"I've enjoyed Citizen Copes two previous discs but found this one to be repeatitive to the point of irritation (particularly on Friendly Fire, Brother Lee & 107) It isn't until at track 10 when Awe kicks in that there is any spark; followed by the beautiful but too brief Left For Dead ... but by then its the close of the disc leaving a feeling it's all been too late."
+17653,2,"Jimmy Wilson's ""Future History""","With Future History, Jimmy Wilson creates an enchanting masterpiece of sound that introduces jazz-fusion to world music to African rhythms. Each track tells its own story and takes you along on its journey, vis a vis the creative collaboration of several notable artists such as Chester Thompson, Dennis Chambers, Scott Ambush, Gerald Veasley, Gary Grainger, George and Geoff Hazelrigg. Wilson blends the styles of Lee Morgan, Clifford Brown and Miles Davis to this unique sound experience of melodic and often sultry songs. The tightness of the playing of all artists mediates us a new sound-experience, never heard before."
+17654,1,Roxio Easy Media Creator Suite 9 (older version),"This is an older version I installed on an older PC. It did not work well at all for me. Extremely slow and difficult to work with. It may have been due to limited resources on the PC. I have now upgraded to a newer, faster PC with more memory and will try to reinstall and see if it improves the speed. However. I still think the software package is difficult to understand and use."

I am looking for larger pads now, but will keep the small pads for the tongue jack."
+17656,1,Some cheese with your whine??,"It gets tiring to read a book that is no more than a rant against ""corporate America"" and the ""rich fat cats"". He fails to inform readers that he has become a ""rich fat cat"" by the writing and publication of his whines.I do agree with some of the problems, but very rarely do I agree on his solutions. His John Wayne Gacy fan club donation was mean-spirited (does he realize that Gacy left parents without their children?) and not funny or witty at all. The mental institution commitment would only have been funny if it was Moore that had gotten committed.I am a middle roader but this book was so far left that it went into another zipcode from me.I would rather read political humor and satire that is less cruel and more funny."
+17657,1,Still a disappointment,"Right after I knew Clancy ""produced"" another Jack Ryan book. I really hoped it would be somehthing different from the disastrous The Bear and The Dragon. However, he failed me again. Tom Clancy seems to lose his edge forever."

+17660,1,Agree with Terre,"I use this brand all the time, especially when they are on sale at Fry's, and very seldom get a bad disc. Probably 98-99% good. However, I ordered two cake boxes from Amazon, and the packaging was dreadful. Evidently the postman set them down roughly on my concrete steps, and all the little plastic tabs holding the lid on broke off. This should not happen with adequate bubble wrap. There was hardly any cushioning in the box. I'd like to buy more of these discs, but I am reluctant to take a chance based on this experience."
+17661,1,"Over-produced, un-original, all songs sound the same...","Without doubt, the Newsboys are one of Christian music's premier bands with an enormous following throughout the world. Their influence has been far-reaching and very positive. I guess I'm buttering them up so I can say... this CD is bad... really bad. I was very excited to hear that a sequel to `Not Ashamed' was released. So, I rushed to the nearest Christian bookstore and wasted $15 on a boring, every-song-sounds-the-same, un-original, over-produced recording that never should have been written. If there is a bright spot on this CD, well... I wasn't able to find one. I can't even recommend this CD to die-hard Newsboys fans because I think it is so bad. Spend your $15 bucks on something better, like `Not Ashamed.'"
+17662,1,Stick to the plot,"What started out as a good mystery soon turned into a boring soap opera. I really enjoyed the initial scenes with the crime and investigation, but then the author transgressed into boring characterizations which had nothing to do with the story. It got slower and slower until I put it down."
+17663,1,Can't joing the chorus of praise.,"I'm a little surprised to see all the glowing positive reviews. I got this radio to listen to my two favorite news stations on the way home now that I am vanpooling. The stronger station comes in a little bit when I am lucky. The slightly weaker station is not to be found at all. I'm glad it was only a cheap experiment. I get a couple music stations, but with sound in one ear only in the headphones and poor sound at that, it's not worth it. I thought the picture made it look a little more thin and stylish than it is. But frankly I find it a bit ugly and definitely bulkier than I expected. And yes, the reception problem occurred with the antenae pulled out, which is pretty unworkable in a crowded van anyway."
+17664,1,Read the recent reviews!,"With this product, it does NOT come from the box shown. It comes in individual canisters in a small black box. There is no way to tell whether or not this film is expired!! I have yet to figure out whether or not my photos come out well due to the film age. Why use this photo if it's not how it will come? BE CARFUL!"
+17665,1,If you are an honest good decent kind person,"Do not support this author. Anyone who knows him or has worked with him knows he's only ""kind"" (if he is capable of it) to people who can help him, and bullies and manipulates any subordinates.

If you trust anything made in China as safe for your pet or child, then go ahead and order this. But, too many heavy metals are found in their products for me to chance it, as well as the main ingredient in Antifreeze. Try doing web searches on this subject if it concerns you too."
+17667,1,Great phone if you alienating your friends,"I have the 2402 with one additional handset. I thought this system was the best thing since sliced bread until one day, about a month after buying the system, the audio on one of the handsets started going in and out. At first it was only once in a while and then it started happening all the time. A month or so later the second phone started doing the same thing. I sent both handsets back to Siemens and received two replacement units. One of the handsets has the same problem and the other one works most of the time.After reading the other reviews I realized that I was not alone. Some people claim that they have no problems while others think this system is terrible. The best I can say is that it seems to be a roll of the dice.It's obvious that Siemens rushed this system out into the market without even the most basic testing. I'll never buy another Siemens cordless phone again."

+17670,1,Not Worth Buying,"I had purchased another Gardman greenhouse, which I am extremely pleased with, so I thought I'd try this one. I didn't notice that the other one is a steel framed greenhouse, and that this one is not. Please DO NOT buy this product. The frame cracked within a month. It is still standing but is leaning and one good windstorm would blow it down. The outer tent is fine, but the frame is a cheaply made and is just plain junk!"
+17671,2,"This is NOT a 5 star album, but it is ... well, good.","Now I think both singers are great- I like pop and country, but the songs! not great. Those who need compelling lyrics will not be happy and those that want to hear a no filler cd will be left lacking. What you do get is some good songs and the girls-they sing great together. So, I'd say 3 1/2 cause 5 years from now, I wouldn't buy a replacement, when it gets scratched like let's say Shania UP."
+17672,2,Great tool for in the field lens maintenance,"Binoc, teles, range finders and cameras. All can benefit from one of these. Light and compact, sturdy and effective. Keep the prints off the lenses."

+17674,2,"Borrowed it 4 days ago, brought it today","This is simply one of those games that are must own games on the Xbox. This game that seemed like it was dead on the saturn, just bursted alive with alot of life on the Xbox, this game has superb gameplay, and it's also very fin as well. The graphics take control of the Xbox's power and introduces stunning graphics. The replay value, well I dunno, I'm like half-way on the game, and it's quite a bit hard cuz I keep dyin to those..., but I'll get through em' eventually. Overall this game can't be missed out on, and if u have a Xbox, u shouldn'd hesitate to get this game. It's one of the best games you'll find this year"
+17675,1,Poor Learning Tool,I was asked to review this text by a group of EMTs at the teaching hospital where I am employed as an ER physician and surgeon. The text contains conflicting information and is not well organized. I would not recommed this text for teaching new EMTs. It could be useful as a review for experienced technicians or paramedics.
+17676,1,lost in translation,"this book started out very interesting but as others have reported, got lost in the shallows. Yes, very original, but even though I did finish it, I don't know why I did or what the message (if there was one) was..... Probably one of the strangest books I have ever started and really finished. Did not like it......"
+17677,1,Fiction,"Running with Scissors ranks right up there with A Million Pieces as a work of fiction. Though the basic outline of this book could be true, the author seems to have a very vivid imagination in creating both the characters and the plot. This book is disgusting."
+17678,1,Forget the storage case,"I bought this saw just to have a handy second saw in the garage. I figured the storage case would be handy, as it would be on the shelf most of the time. The storage case is pathetic. It takes longer to figure out how to put the saw back into the case than it does to go out to the shop and get my other saw. I'd give the case a negative star, the saw is about a 2 star."
+17679,2,A Must Read,"When I started reading this book, I thought - Wow! these writers are telling everybody how they can steal a company's most secret information just by telling a few lies. But there's more to it. If you want to tell a bank how to protect itself against bank robbers, you have to tell them what tricks bank robbers use and how they think. That's what Kevin Mitnick is doing in this book. He's actually teaching every company how to protect itself. And when really think about ""social engineering,"" you can even imagine how it can easily entrap individuals as well."
+17680,2,Best for all over the world - fm a new mom in Hong Kong!!,"I was very desired to buy it since many positive comments on this carrier. My only 1 concern is the price ... but now I proved my choice is right! It is very easy to use & handy. I can relese 2 hands to hold things when shopping around. I thk a stroller cannot be compared with it unless that is a super light-weight stroller (3.6kg - 5kg) such as the Japanese brand COMBI or MANTEN. The only 1 thing I'm not satisfied is, it cant be used for hours since it makes wrinkles on BB's body. Thus, it is no good to let newborn BB to be in a sitting position for too long."
+17681,2,One of Behringer's top products,"It really brightens up the vocals on my Carvin wireless mic and gives me an extra set of outputs in case I need to run 4 (powered) speakers.The subwoofer output jack with adjustable crossover frequency comes in handy. I deducted a star because the way the input/output jacks are grouped & labeled can be a bit confusing. Although I am competent with sound equipment, it is very easy (especially for a novice) to make a wrong connection. That being said, this is one the few Behringer products that I recommend."
+17682,1,Nino vs Palm IIIx,"I have been a Palm user since their arival. But I thought I would at least give the Nino a try. The first 3 were broken. Missing buttons etc. The forth one worked great! I was happy! Then I had to contend with the Bloated code of Outlook. Even running on a 400Mhz computer I noticed that it was slow compared to the Palm desktop I was used to. Also I have a LARGE contact database, about 800 entries. Nino took 2 1/2 minutes to search through it! Palm took 13 seconds. The Nino is a real flashy device, just not very functional for large amounts of data. Palm machines are faster, but not very much flash. I am using a Palm IIIx now and love it! Nino now sits on my desk and keeps papers from blowing away... Gotta get my money back somehow. :-)"
+17683,1,Not even Nicole Kidman could save it,"Oh so lame. The original K. Ross version was great, this one was pedantic and completely uninspired. A waste of Kidman's ability."
+17684,2,Hellraiser Lost in Space,"The story about a search patrol looking for the lost ship Event Horizon, is not orginal, but is supported well by a strong cast of actors. The movie does borrow heavily from Hellraiser I and II, as to the gothic horror it portrays. Some of the visual effects are really terrfying(especialy if you use pause to go slowly through the fast forward, gory scenes!). I think the movie as such does what it is meant to do. It is a good scare, but not a masterpiece by any means."
+17685,1,Don't judge Hornby by this book alone,I'd hate to think that this could be someone's first time reading a book by Nick Hornby because I doubt they would give his other much better books a chance. For about 3/4 of the book I just felt annoyed at all of the characters. Do yourself a favor and check out Fever Pitch or High Fidelity instead.
+17686,2,The Thrill (Price) of Reckless Independence,"Follow the compelling story of Chris McCandless as chronicled by Jon Krakauer. Both men seemed at once sensitive and at odds with phoney, stiff, sanitized society. Both men ran to find the thrill of independence and self-sufficiency in the wilds of nature. Both seem to find what they are looking for. McCandless finds it and never lives to tell about it. His story is compassionately related by Krakauer, who seems more kin than journalist. A stunning, captivating true story, excellently told."

When it is scanning or checking my computer, it slows everything else down to a snail's pace. Opening other websites or writing email is extremely frustrating when McAfee is doing its thing. Quite frequently, it knocks me off the internet. It's like someone else has taken control of my computer. I am going to get this nightmare off of my computer. I want my money back!"
+17689,1,this is what you get,You see what happens when you let someone with no talent become famous they are a fad a long tiering fad. I burned this cd off my computer when it first came out and really havent listened to it since the beats hit hard on my subs but thats not the reason I listen to music. Well what else can I say but fans of this poor taste brought it on themselves all the people that talk trash of this cd went out and bought it or got a bootleg so to me that says at somepoint you did like him so save the trash talkin anyone can do that hell ill even admit it myself I liked some of the older stuff so i burned the new stuff but now it's not even worth listening to and since I didn't have to pay for it I am really not pissed like some people are.

This is a good sequeland I still have the ultimate edition dvd, but decided toupgrade to this. I was concerned before buying it afterreading reviews about the grain issues. There is some,but I have to say most of the film is clear as can be,colors look nice, sound is great and there's interactiveextras. It's definitely a step up from the dvd and probablythe best it's going to look & sound for now considering thefilm is over 20 years old. I recommend this and if you stillhave the ultimate dvd, keep it for the extras if you like thatsort of thing like me."

+17698,1,David Baerwald??,"Does this not sound exactly like David Baerwald? It is so similiar and the riffs, vocals and keys are him to a ""T"". Baerwald was forgotten and probably not even noticed in the Moulin Rouge which he spent many songs. This guy has obviously copied him to say the least. Listen to Sirens In the city or colleen and tell me they dont have the same artist!!"
+17699,1,The future belongs to God,"I read many parts of this ridiculous book.I found them available for free reading on an internet site.This book wasn't writen by a ridiculous pastor or an aiatollah;it was writen by two american ""scientists"".Writing on late 1960 decade, they went to be prophets.Even being ""scientists"" they weren't better than an aiatollah could be.To example, they thought that in 2000 fusion reactors will be the biggest source of energy in the world.Well, we are in 2007, not in 2000, but even so, no fusion reactor ever produced liquid energy even to support a small lamp.The end of iron curtain and Soviet Union, the growing of islam, the atomic aiatollahs of Iran, internet, personal computers, cell phone; nothing were saw by the authors of this book.Well, here in Brazil, we have a proverb:""O futuro a Deus pertence"".Tranlating to English we have:""The future belongs to God.""The only real use on reading this book is to see, that ""science"" can be so failured as religion."
+17700,2,An excellent guide to the past !,"A book of love, life, death and hate. Cleopatra is all of these. From her affair with caeser to the asp that killed her. This is a great book for avid readers."
+17701,2,So many great examples. Beautiful Pictures and great explaination,This book is well written and includes awesome pictures. I am excited to try my first and subsequent cake decorating adventures from its pages.
+17702,2,Great guide,This book gives lots of insight to the reader about the man who wrote all these great works and also about what exactly each piece is saying or describing. Truly illuminating.
+17703,1,A Dirty Marketing Trick!,"Beware! This film has been misleadingly re-packaged and re-marketed in 2010 with the faces of three big kung fu stars on the cover BUT this is NOT a martial arts film! It is a self-indulgent Chinese propaganda film that is slow, boring and long-winded. Even though the new dvd cover states 'starring Jet Li, Jackie Chan and Donnie Yeung' these actors get bit parts for a matter of a few seconds - Jackie Chan takes some finding as a bespectacled Journalist with a moustache. If you are looking for a 'House of the Flying Daggers' type kung fu movie, then save your money! If you want a Chinese history lesson, then also save your money and buy something that is not so tedious and innacurate historically."
+17704,2,Used on y JL setup...WORKS!!,I bought this for my JL Audio setup and it looks as well as it performs. Def a good buy in my opinion and would recommend to anyone!
+17705,1,Imperfect Technology,"My Kensington wireless mouse, new out of the box, would lose connection several times a day. Frustrating? You betcha - I went back to a wired mouse after it was clear there wasn't a solution but a permanent deficiency in the technology, at least in the Kensington."
+17706,1,Vowels are not alphabetized,"Valiant and mixed effort by Johnette Napolitano and Holly Beth Vincent. The purported free style creation is intense and interesting, but overall just meanders in no particular direction. Although it definitely sounds like the ladies had a good time making the album, for us it kills time time 'til their own solo efforts come out."
+17707,1,"Informative but very dry, boring delivery","I bought this because I am a musician (sing & play flute & clarinet). I have always been a fan of Beethoven, and thought this book would be fascinating. While there is plenty of information about him given, it is written in such a way that I have yet to finish reading it. It is very dry, clinical, and quite frankly, boring. I had hoped for an entertaining, insightful read but have been sorely disappointed."
+17708,2,Very good,"Very good and relatively good ore, and I waited for the third Mouloudi ask him if he and Sue M. comfortable or not this product Hahahaha I'm kidding. Worthy of five stars"
+17709,2,A journey into the possibilities of rhythm,"The Blue Note debut of pianist James Hurt shows, right from the very opening, the approach chosen to to integrate some qualities that seem to be lost in contemporary jazz: a relentless though inventive compositional sense, a challenging rhytmic structure and inspired soloists. Also, he incorporates elements of such diverse origins as Dollar Brand's afro innovations and montuno-inspired rhytmic inflections. Best of all, the results are a pleasure to listen. The muscular backing band, with concise though inspired interventions by reed men Antonio Hart, Jacques Schwarz-Bart and Abraham Burton, display here a rare level of interplay that only enhances Hurt's original compositions. They're ever daring, but Hurt's inventiveness never gets in the way of the music. All in all, a splendid debut."
+17710,2,Bill would be proud.,"You've got to see this movie. If you don't like Shakespeare, you will want to read Shakespeare at the end of the movie. If you like Shakespeare, you will NEED to read some plays. Seriously."
+17711,1,Beware Tracking Problems and Out of Date POIs,"I bought this unit in anticipation of using it with my laptop on a long road trip. The software loaded fine and worked with the GPS receiver included with it. While using it a few times, however, I've found some serious limitations. First, the user interface is completely unique and requires some getting used to - it's not really bad but I'm the only one in my family that's taken the time to figure it out. Second, the points-of-interest (POIs), like gas stations, restaurants, etc., are very sparse and out-of-date. Third, and perhaps most disturbing, is that the GPS receiver loses lock on the GPS satellite signals in overcast skies. This might not matter if you're cruising along on a highway, but not when your trying to find your next turn. For these reasons, I recommend looking elsewhere for a laptop-based GPS unit."
+17712,1,Don't be MarmaDUPED,This Book was dumb. I give it just the one star because the cover was kind of cool. Otherwise it gets ZERO STARS. Marmaduke is too big to be a real dog. And I hate the way he looks. I don't understand how anyone could possible think this was a better book than Garfield Gets Cookin' or even Garfield Beefs Up.
+17713,1,Utter Disappointment,"I ordered this tray for a wedding gift. I was pleasantly surprised at the fast shipping from The Bowl Company. However, when I opened the item, I noticed an obvious flaw on the tray. Also, there appears to be swirl marks on the tray giving it a dull appearance, unlike all of the other Wilton pieces in my collection. It appears to be of ""B"" or ""C"" grade stock or possibly a previous return. I contacted the seller and they offered a replacement/refund after I ship the tray back. Since I will not be able to receive in time for the wedding, I'm out double shipping costs - for nothing. Save yourself time and effort and only buy Wilton from a real retailer."
+17714,2,good deal,"Brand new book, fair price. Even I had accidentally typed in a wrong address, I received the book after several weeks."
+17715,2,Pragmatic,The author has a clear approach on some key areas of marketing and sales processes. Very pragmatic questions and key points that certainly provide some meaningful insights for creating your own GTM strategy.The only point I think could have deeper content is about implmentation of GTM plans. There are just a few pages addressing this topic which certainly is the most challangeble part of the whole process.Nice book for having on your office desk.
+17716,1,IT'S SO SIMPLE: THERE'S NO VOICE,"What an awful album, the first single ""Get Right"" has a catchy beat, but when she starts singing the song goes so bad, it's not a good album, the worse of 2005, she's not a singer, Jennifer has no voice.If you want real voice and real music:- ***THE ALWAYS IMITATED BUT NEVER DUPLICATED: Mariah Carey***- ***THE SEXY Janet Jackson***"
+17717,2,James Patterson does it again...,"I don't want to give the book away and I won't. But I can tell you that all of Alex Cross's fans have been waiting for this book. It was, in my opinion, the best of the Alex Cross series written by James Patterson..."
+17718,2,pass your board exam!,"I really loved this book! it was a great tool to help pass my board exam (ACP/social work), i studied it faithfully and didn't even bother studying the DSM IV manual. this book is well written and VERY easy to comprehend difficult diagnosis. i recommend it strongly if you are entering the psychiatric field and you are not a psychiatrist!"
+17719,1,"Horrible, horrible read","Just finished reading this book for a book club I am in and I can honestly say that this is the worst book I have ever read. Urgh! It angers me that I actually spent money on this piece of literary garbage and wasted valuable time reading it.I have no idea what , if any plot there was to this book and I could have cared less about any of the characters. Honestly, I think the most interesting character was the grandfather who died in a train accident at the beginning.Seriously, what was this supposed to be about? Transients? Mental illness? Suicide? Trains?I can't wait for the upcoming book club meeting just so I can finally throw this book in the trash can afterwards."
+17720,2,"Sure, it's ""young King"", but that's better than most authors","Sure, the writing in this book is ""young King"", but that's better than most authors even at the peak of their talents. All the raw skills that would make Stephen King the bestselling horror author ever are here, and this is a fast and enjoyable read. Even if you've seen the movie, you owe it to yourself to read the novel. You won't regret it."
+17721,2,The Last Choice is Not Always the Worst Choice,"I began reading this book as a requirement for my English class. It was one of the last choices left and I was disappointed that I got ""stuck"" reading this book. After reading the first couple of pages, I was not only reading this book because I had to, but I was racing through it because I enjoyed it so much. I feel like I got a special look into the lives of the lower class, all the way down to the smallest, most gruesome details. No child should ever have to live as the Walls children did. It makes me sick to think that parents could be so selfish and let their children live like animals when there were plenty of actions that could have been taken to allow for a healthy and comfortable lifestyle. This book helped me to think about the behaviors of the less fortunate students in my school and realize that there may be something terrible going on behind the scenes that forces them to behave the way they do. I would highly recommend this book to anyone."
+17722,2,The best book I've ever read.,"2/17/98I read this book last year. When I looked at it, I was unsure whether to buy it or not. After I read it, I wondered why I ever doubted! ""Maniac"" is well-written and full of interesting facts and fiction. The story includes so much information, it might as well could have happened! If you read this book, you will not be disappointed. The book has you in suspense and it doesn't let go until the very end. The book also discretely suggests some very interesting and thought provoking reading material."
+17723,2,One of my favorites.,"Peter Sellers simple (almost autistic) character gives insight via his simple observations. Reminds me of the biblical quote, something about ""wisdom from the mouths of babes""."
+17724,1,outragelousy boring,"???hWe watched this movie for spanish class. Three major topics that were covered were immigration,Quinceanera, and love. One thing that I really liked about this movie is the government issues. This is the only thing that kept me from falling asleep. My favorite part of the movie was when Ramon's car door fell off. It was really funny. I didn't like when Jorge got deported because he was my favorite character. I really wouldn't reconmend this movie. It was very boring and i fell asleep If i could come up with one word wor the whole entire movie I would have to say Boring!???h"
+17725,2,Best book I have read about the Five Points of Calvinism,"Edwin Palmer does a good jog explaining and defending the Five Points of Calvinism. I recommend this book to any person, Calvinist or Arminian, who is interested in learning about this topic."
+17726,2,Get Your Feet Wet,"This book is a good introduction into the world of Feng Shui. It's lighthearted approach makes it an easy read -- and it has succeeding in turning me on to studying the practice more seriously. (I felt that many other feng shui books are overwhelming and intimidating for beginners). The tongue-in-cheek humor gets a little tiring at times... but all in all, I did learn many principles that I started to apply right away.One suggestion to the author: an index would have been helpful."
+17727,1,Total Junk,"After owning the original vinyl since 1984, I was excited to see this soundtrack released to CD. After buying it, I thought it was the worst piece of junk that Universal can ever sell, and I'm returning it quick smart for a full refund.I think it's an absolute sacrament, how they have destroyed Debbie Harry's ""Rush Rush"". Who was the mindless numbscull responsible for this?"
+17728,2,"Emotional, Powerful, Fizzy","Long a stodgy devotee of baroque music, with the first few notes of this strong stuff I became an addict. Over and over again I play this CD, never quite anticipating the power and emotional bang of the music as it plays - even though I know the notes by now. If you ever studied Walter Piston's ""harmony"" the structures and transitions are back-of-the-book stuff, but the push is all elemental, basic, built-in, the familiar 1-4-5 with musical sequins, trampolines, backflips, and gelginite. Wow. And then some.I'm so besotted, I had a couple of 13-year old boys (my son and a friend) listen to it in the car one day. They were bug-eyed after a couple of cuts, and not with horror. Now they ask for it, and yell with glee when the musical tension breaks over their heads in crashing chords.Can I add a few more stars?"
+17729,2,Fun Movie!,"This movie was terrific at the theaters, but I like it even more at home on my 3D TV with the kid."
+17730,1,non-story,"This book is a disappointment to say the least. While it does give the reader a very predictable romance, it never resolves the ""mystery"" that is supposed to be part of the plot. As the lovers decide to marry - ""against all odds"" that they would be attracted to one another - they end the book committed to trying to find out ""who did it."" It's a non-plot...sorry I spent money on it."
+17731,2,Beautiful and Useful,"I ordered this for my daughter's back yard, which has few trees for shade. The tilt makes it great for casting a maximum shadow here in Texas where it's often 105* or more! Very sturdy."
+17732,2,beautifully crafted pop,"I continue to listen to almost all of these tracks months after buying the CD. That rare for me. There's always something of melodic interest, I like the mildly wry lyrics, and the studio recording is perfectly mixed. There's a studied quality to their music that might turn some folks off, but anyone who likes the mid-tempo tracks of Stereolab, for example, will likely enjoy this CD.Its a shame that the band seems to have broken up, but this is a great final CD for them if indeed this is the last we'll hear from them."
+17733,1,Not a good buy!,These dvds were not at all what I had thought I bought. They really are kids stories being played out by amitures. Not very well done or recorded either.
+17734,2,Well worth it,"This video does a good job of breaking the swing down into small managable pieces. My swing improved greatly, I was able to find more power and improved my contact. I have been playing about 13 years and shoot around 95. I know that will improve after watching this and making the needed changes. I have been out and practiced the changes and can already see an improved ball flight and consistancy. If you need a brush up or reminder just watch it again. If you would rather spend the $75+- on a lesson or two then go for it. I would rather have a lesson at my finger tips from one of the best for the same price. Good luck and enjoy, worth the price and effort."
+17735,1,Save your money! I wish I had saved mine!,"Lousy! My daughter, who is considered average for her height and weight,r never fit in it properly. It felt uncomfortable to wear. What a WASTE!!!!"
+17736,2,"Tissues, please????","K'wan has written a heated novel that keeps you curious as to what will happen next. Lou-loc & Satin tried - but the deck was stacked against them from the beginning. The revenge that Gutter ultimately got for his brother was sweet. This book is a page turner from page one. I really enjoyed the character of Cross - MUCH creativity on that one! Mega respect to you, K'wan for your work - you laid it down!....a HIGHLY recommended book for all to read."
+17737,1,Oh Dear,"I've been a Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds fan since I first heard Tender Prey about 12 years ago and have seen them play all over the world, I've loved everything they've done. Up till now. This is the worst album Cave has ever realsed. With the exception of the first four songs everything else sounds lazy, half-assed and (dare I say it) dull. Tired lyrics, all of which I've heard before on previous albums, and a complete lack of heart and conviction too, which is almost criminal."
+17738,2,Contents:,"Life sure is dealing Bud Daley a mean hand. His entire stock of Triangle-D cattle is stolen, Sheriff Breed won't help him because of a personal grudge, his wife May is being propositioned by a disloyal money-lender, and Bud's friends, Uncle Jimmy and the huge Sody, are short on ideas and long on arguments. And when Bud is arrested for murder and the robbery of the Modoc bank, Hashknife Hartley and Sleepy Stevens are determined to help reunite May with her persecuted husband."
+17739,1,Do I Hear.... REMIX 2!!!,"When I first heard the single 'Jenny From The Block', I was anticipating for it's release and wondering if the rest of the cd sound just as good. I was also hoping she'd produce another dance tune like, 'Waiting For Tonight' or 'Feel'n So Good' since they were hits at the clubs. Instead there were a lot of bad ballads with awful lyrics and songs with the same beat. Overall this cd sounds like a really long, and may I add 'BORING', love letter to BEN AFFLECK. Hopefully her collaboration with Hex Hector, Thunderpuss, David Morales, or anyone can help her revive some of the songs in this cd.The only songs that stand out are:1 Still (cool intro, but they should've spent more time on this song, hopefully there's a remix radio edit in progress)2 All I Have 'featuring LL Cool J' (i really think this song should be in an LL Cool J cd and should read ""All I Have, featuring Jennifer Lopez"")3 Jenny From The Block (cool first single, she looks HOT in the video)"
+17740,2,very good intro to Islam,This book can serve a very good introduction to Islam. I highly recommend this book for people wanting to learn about middle east and islam
+17741,2,"No quite ""like new"", but close enough for the $$","The battery life with this replacement is not quite up to par with the original factory battery; I can't give hard numbers, but it definitely doesn't last as long as it did brand new. Still, though, my all-but-useless, ancient iPod is now serviceable for daily use. So, for a cheap fix, I'm pretty happy.The battery came as promised and as described. It's easy enough to install, although I did initially get a ""sad mac"" face when I first booted up. A quick google search lead to the suggestion of taking it apart again, gently tapping the hard drive to get it ""unstuck,"" and reassembling. What do you know? That did it."
+17742,1,Interesting but is it worth the money?,"Interesting, but is it worth the money? More current books with more current research and more details are my style."
+17743,2,best listened to when high,"I don't believe this version is remastered, just reissued and repackaged with the original stars & stripes front cover. There is no indication anywhere that this cd was remastered at all, and that is also clearly evident when listening to it. The production is very muddled and narcotic sounding, which is no doubt somewhat intentional, but also something that needs to be cleared up a little to meet with todays sonic standards for sound. That being said, this is now one of my all time favorite cd's after hearing it for the first time yesterday. I've already listened to eight times and am completely mesmerized by it. Its an album that is both trying to pull you in and push you away. Just like a drug. Very effective and very addictive."
+17744,2,good,this was given to my daughter as a gift. She plays this game for hours at a time. She appears to enjoy this game.
+17745,2,Really Cool!,"First i have to say that i'm a pop music lover, Britney, Christina, Etc. but this album is amazing considering that i don't like rock music, i was inspired to buy it when i fist heared BRING ME TO LIFE, then GOING UNDER and now MY INMORTAL which is an amazing song!!! I think if you're a pop music lover, you gonna love this album, even when is not really pop!"
+17746,2,It's a good replacment filter for an ok system,"It's the replacement filter I needed for my Bionaire filtration system. The filters work well. It's the Bionaire system that may or may not be the best room air filter b/c you have to buy replacment cartridges pretty often. So, in the end, I would've spent more on a filterless system b/c the filter price & machine price are the same when you consider how many filters you end up buying during the life of the machine."
+17747,2,This book is NOT a Zero,I've read several Ken Follett books and he is in top form with Code to Zero. It's written very well with developed characters and an intricate plot with some surprising twists. You get a real sense of the 1950's and the space race during that time. The repeated snippets during the story of counting down the rocket on the pad with all the technical details really added to the book's depth and created tension and suspense. I'd rank this as one of Mr. Follett's best books. A definite must read.
+17748,1,Save the last dance,The DVD would not play on 3 different DVD players. I was not happy at all! I really don't think I would trust using this site again.
+17749,1,"Terrible Battery, OK everything else",Battery quit holding a charge right after the manufacturer's warranty expired. I found the audio quality and reception to be less than average overall. I wish I had done more research before choosing a phone. Gave it two stars because it worked ok for a few months.
+17750,1,"Buy if you like rap, not WWF","I was dissappointed with this CD. After hearing Run DMC's ""The Kings"" and Method Man's ""Know Your Role"" on WWF Smackdown, I thought this would be a cool CD. I was wrong. Most of the songs on here don't have anything to do with wrestling(ODB and Kool Keith ""Wreck"" which talks about barfing on a convertible top?) There are a couple good songs-The Kings, Know your Role, Hell Yeah-but thats about it. I know that most WWF fans are going to do what I did, that is buy it because it's WWF. But the only reason you should buy this CD is either if your a rap fan or need a coaster for your coffee mug."
+17751,2,Groovy music,"I bought this as a gift for my dad. I remember he had it as a tape, newer cars don't have tape decks. He enjoyed it then and enjoys it now."
+17752,1,OEM Software,"Despite the pictures and what is advertised on the Amazon website, the product sent by Fund-star is merely an envelope with a CD indicating OEM software, which is not transferable between computers and does not include the same level of technical support. Fund-star did refund my money once the CD was returned unopened, but if you are not looking for OEM software, avoid buying from this vendor."
+17753,2,The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Nighttime,"I like this book. It is cute and enjoyable. The only real downfall that I noticed was the fact that the plot involving the dog is ended so abruptly. I'm not trying to spoil the ending, but more questioning of neighbors, and ""detecting"" would have made this book more enjoyable for me. The way the plot unravelled seemed abrupt, but I guess it was needed for further character development. Overall a B book, not quite extraordinary, but well worth the time it takes to read."
+17754,1,Save your money,You get what you pay for. I thought this was a neat tank for the price. However the material is cheap and looks scuffed when you get it.
+17755,2,Awesome!!!!!!!!!!!,This game is really good I like the graphics and the sound effect of it. If you guys out there wants some action game. I recomend that you're gonna love this.
+17756,1,Legal & Legit Version Now Available on DVD from WB,"Save your money on this garbage and getUrban Action Collection: 4 Film Favoritesfrom Warner Bros. You get a legit version of ""Black Belt Jones"" AND 3 other movies - including 2 other Jim Kelly adventures - for the price of this cheapo bootleg DVD."
+17757,2,Medieval Space-Folk Witchery,"What can be said about a band that is mentioned in the infamous ""Nurse With Wound List"", is cited as an influence by Hans Jochim Roedelius, scored Roman Polanski's Macbeth and shared a violinist with Hawkwind, High Tide and David Bowie?Very little it seems, since very little has ever been said or written about this band. Equally parts pastoral and spacey, archaic and futurist, tranquil and frightening.This cd consists of three rare albums collected on two discs. One studio and one live from 1990 and the ""Abelard and Heloise"" BBC production soundtrack from 1970. The recent recordings are equal in quality to the vintage. This usually sells for the price of one album.Will appeal to fans of: Amon Duul, Brian Eno, Dead Can Dance, Comus, Ash Ra Tempel, David Sylvian, (K)Cluster, Nurse With Wound, Michael Rother, Sun Ra and anything on the 4AD or ECM labels."
+17758,2,"Relax and enjoy this quirky, special movie","If you keep looking for Divine in every new John Waters film you will surely be disappointed. Divine is gone and cannot be replaced, so why not just relax and enjoy this special little film, with all of it's quirky Baltimore characters and its mild ""poking fun at"" art and intellectuals. I highly recommend this film. If you miss having something to feel intellectually superior about, you can always see ""The Blair Witch Project"". If you want to have some fun, see ""Pecker"""
+17759,2,sabor latino,"antony santos is the best bachatero there is in the dominican republic. He knows the gitar better than any bachateros. sabor latino is one of the best, but there are more to come. I heard that the CD for this december is going to be the best."
+17760,1,Not impressed,"For me music on this CD lacks originality. Very predictable and somewhat subservient to the new-age public for impending sales. There are some nice moments, but composition-wise there is little development and too much repetition of his presented material. Hopefully future efforts will be more innovative with emphasis on originality."
+17761,1,People who advised me on watching this; PUH_LEASE!,"This movie is not even worth one star! The story plot is cheap; there are too many pop culture songs; what is DreamWorks thinking?There are hardly any characters! The DVD itself focuses more on pop culture than the story, the most important piece in a movie! My friends all told me to watch this movie - well, now, I've watched it, and I hate it! Whoever thinks Shrek is better than Shrek 2 had better check their heads. I like Shrek 2, like so much better!"
+17762,2,A great introduction to the vibrant Canadian Celtic scene,"This album provides a wonderful introduction to some of the many sadly neglected (at least in the U.S.) musicians of Eastern Canada. The Chieftains have wisely chosen to bring the guest artists front and center while limiting their own contribution. The result is a wide variety of styles and sounds, yet with the common denominator of the Chieftains it's a much more unified collection than most ""sampler"" albums. And, unlike most sampler albums, there's not a clunker in the bunch. The ballads are particularly entrancing, notably ""My Bonnie"" and ""Come by the Hills,"" but the up-tempo cuts make for great fun as well. (If you can only check out one cut, make it ""La Lys Vert"" with La Bottine Souriante.) You will be listening to this one long after most of your Celtic collection is forgotten. Now if we could only make the recordings of these wonderful Canadian artists more available in the States! (How about it, Amazon?)"
+17763,1,Product discrepancy,"I purchased these for my mom. She was intending to order socks that had a closed toe. Because she had no idea what ""inspection toe"" meant in the description, and one of the images showed a sock which does have a closed toe, she assumed it was the right product and I ordered it for her. When they arrived with a toe opening, I contacted the seller to return them. Not only do I have to pay for shipping but I also incur a 20 percent restocking fee! Essentially, I am only getting half of a refund all because the item description is not very clear. I noticed a few other reviews that say they had the same problem."
+17764,1,great lute. not so great vocals.,"i think Sting is greatly talented, versatile. but he is consistently FLAT on this disc. no it is not the style of singing, as i personally know many singers who do well in this era and style of music. his intonation is just under pitch. the lutest is exceptional. he's THE lutest in the world, actually. ...lastly, why is it categorized under ""modern 20th & 21st century"" here on Amazon? it's DOWLAND for goodness sake."
+17765,1,"OK, but only half of a book","What did I think of the book??? I say WHY BOTHER?!?! Like many others who have commented here over the last 18 months, I feel I was ""hoodwinked"" by Mr. Lee. It appears he wrote half of a book and managed to peddle it to the unsuspecting public. I've learned to never buy one of Lee's books without checking the last page to see whether or not it is ""to be continued"". In this case Mr. Lee is already 2 years late on his promise. Yawn...I'm tired of waiting."

+17768,1,Tried 2 and they both didn't work,"Seems to be a serious quality control problem with this product. My 3-yr old daughter got one for Christmas and it has the letter recognition problem so many others have reported. I exchanged it for another one and it also has the problem. I like the idea of the product, but not if it ends up doing more harm than good by teaching wrong letters and confusing little ones. Reading all the reviews makes me wonder what percentage made are defective. Seems like it'd be a high number. Too bad we can't give zero stars because I would."
+17769,2,More Lights,"This is a very stylish product, Charges controllers quickly. Worth the few extra dollars. Certainly your entertainment center could use some more lights. Helps with the USB wire clutter, and the two charging USB ports are a big plus.."
+17770,2,What a wonderful story!,"...Saber, Earl of Avenall, was severely wounded, inside and out, during the war in India. Today, we would call it Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. He has nightmares, he feels terrible amounts of guilt, etc. But he thinks he's going insane.Ella, his beloved, needs him. She loves him and he pushes her away, not willing to tie her to a madman. But someone threatens to expose Ella's past and hurt her.Saber decides to marry her, make her his heir, so when he does finally go completely insane, Ella will be taken care of.This was a good story, with deeply emotional characters whose love for each other was tangible and real.The only thing I don't usually like about Stella Cameron's writing is the way she often *hints* at what people want to say. I wish she would just have them *say* what is on their minds.But I did think this was a very good book."
+17771,2,A Must-Have for Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome,"When I found this book, I knew this is exactly what I had been hoping for. The Doctor who wrote this has spent the last 25 years researching and understanding this condition. He approaches it with the idea that the better you understand this, the better you will get at minimizing symptoms and controlling it. Well-organized and easy to read."
+17772,1,useless garbage,"If it was only so easy.. Don't waste your time with this proven huckster. If you want more in depth advice check out his earlier book: 'Think Astrology & Grow Rich: With the New ""Money Astrology""'. Yes he really wrote that"

+17774,1,So far bad luck.,Fitting's for pipes is not right. Not much luck from the company as ALL THE PHONE NUMBERS ARE NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Not happy after shelling out a grand. WILL GIVE THEM ONE MORE CHANCE TO REDEEM THEMSELVES.
+17775,1,a really disappointing and annoying read,"It always seemed to me that the task of novel writing included a cohesive development of a long story. However, in this particular case, a very talented and intelligent author delivered a pastiche of fragments of varied length and often rather questionable quality. I found the reading process extremely exhausting. If you are looking for a well-paced and intelligently written narrative don't read this book. It gets a little better around page 140 when you are just about ready to give up. However, it doesn't lead anywhere. I am a very tolerant reader (some fragments of the books are actually even interesting and the writing itself actually consistently intelligent, alhtough often too dense) but as a novel this book is a complete disaster. It should be called ""G. An Awkwardly Disjointed Pastiche About a Sex Addict and Politics"". Not a novel."
+17776,2,Better than PUR,"After my third PUR faucet filter broke, I started looking for something else to try. The Culligan is great! The water tastes good and the simple design has worked nicely. It's also smaller and less obtrusive than the PUR.The only thing I would note is that sometimes the switch does not automatically reset when you turn the water off and I have to manually push it in. Not a big deal though and it works much better than the PUR design.Definitely recommended, these are infinitely more convenient than the pitchers."
+17777,1,Overrated,"I'll admit I'm not a big Boys ll Men fan. Yet I got their first cd many years ago after a friend told me I was missing out and I was upset I wasted my money. All the songs sounded alike to me so I put it in a box and never looked at it again. Recently I went through that box and found this cd and put it on. I was surprised that some of the songs didn't sound so bad. The strong songs are ''Uhh Ahh'', ''It's So Hard To Say Goodbye'', ''Under Pressure'' and of coarse ''Motown Philly'' which is the best song on the album.Those songs are the few high lights. When you take away those four songs the rest of the cd is still dry. It's too sappy and the songs all sound the same. It sounds like they used the same beat on every song. While many are shocked B2M are no longer hot, I'm not. I knew 20 years ago when they first started they weren't going to last. Their music was hot for the new jack swing era but when that trend faded so did they."
+17778,2,Heartbeats and Heartaches,"This is a biography based on actual account typify of most intellectual Chinese from PRC. From nationalism, to communism many scholars endured difficult times couping with constant political unrests and made the most of their lifes. Professor Qin kept most of the difficult times to her self and moved on with her family. Those with great tolerance accept what was given and try to move on... An excellent book highly recommended."
+17779,2,My dogs love it!,"My dogs practically knock me down to get to their beds to eat now! Helping with the joints, I have slowly weaned them from anti-inflammatory meds. Easy to use in the pump bottle. I have 3 dogs so I haven't had to worry about it going bad or anything. Would recomend to anyone with older dogs or dogs that could be prone to joint problems and back problems."
+17780,2,Truly a collection of their best works.,"Everybody likes at least one DS song, be it ""Walk of Life"", ""Money for Nothing"" or ""Telegraph Road"". All of these songs are here, as well as some of their other all-time greats. If you're a fan, you'll love it, and if you're not, you'll soon love it. Deserves a place in everybody's CD collection."

+17782,1,UGH,"I really hate romance, but my mother insisted on buying me a copy. She found it on sale and knew I loved vampires. I could hardly make it through this book. I think I'll pick up my copy of Dracula and wash the bad taste out of my mouth."
+17783,2,GREAT RESOURCE,Good for any Christian's library. Good material even if one is not married. Relationally on all levels this can be applied.
+17784,2,"Quality material, not just another recycle job!","This is a very good documentary; lots of great footage. It really seems like a fresh retrospective. Some of the other stuff that's come out between 'Westway' and this, seems to have less to offer than 'This is video Clash', the late '80's quickie compilation. GREAT STUFF, from the beginning to the final incarnation of the band (i think the last album was a little better than the reviews, but not as good as what Husker Du was generating at that time). WHAT A BAND! I think Mick Jones had the right idea musically, during the Combat Rock period. Too bad we couldn't see a continuation of that."
+17785,2,Nice for around the office,"I use this calculator on a daily basis around my office. Here are a few reasons while I really like it:1. The LCD number display is large and very clear.2. The ergonomic shape makes is easy to get a nice firm grip along the side.3. It is very sturdy. This has been knocked off the desk more than a few times, and it has kept on ticking.4. The buttons are well-spaced and accurate. I very rarely make any entry errors."
+17786,2,A Good Collection Of Cindy Morgan's Music,"I remember a couple of my favorite Cindy Morgan songs that did not make this collection: ""Love Will Break Your Fall"" and ""Reason To Live"". Are there any songs out of these 14 that should be taken off to make room for one of these two? Not really. That means this is a good collection.Besides the two I mentioned, this collection also has these other personal favorites: ""Sweet Days Of Grace"", ""How Can I Ask For More"", ""Real Life"", ""Listen"", ""Let It Be Love"", and ""I Will Be Free""."
+17787,1,Works for a while and dies,"I am going through my 2nd one. When i bought it, everything was fine but after some months of using it people can hear me and i can't hear them."
+17788,2,looks great on blu ray,"fans of this classic mob movie should be pleased with the transfer it brings out small details in the movie i missed on standard dvd as for the movie itself nothing more to add simply the best mob movie ever liota,pesci, and deniro deliver brilliant performances!!"
+17789,2,Colors of the Day,"Judy Collins has a spectacular voice and the selections in Colors of the Day show it off beautifully. I have loved listening to this album since it first came out as an LP, and I love it just as much now. No one who enjoys listening to Judy sing would be disappointed in any way with this CD."
+17790,1,Wrong TOOL for the job?,"I'm a long time TOOL fan... so there was a reason why I didn't and haven't bought any PERFECT CIRCLE albums, which is pretty much the exact opposite why so many people DID by APC albums. Well, I finally borrowed this from a friend and I was right, it's just a fat strip of jerky, when you really need the steak. Musically, it's not bad... but it ain't nuthin groundbreaking... And, by no means is this the greatest album of all time... To me, I just can't see how, when these guys are ""Rockin' Out"", they aren't sayin' to themselves, ""yeah, this is just like TOOL... Heavy, Yeah... we rock!"" Even if TOOL's guitar tech started the band, I don't care, too many Adam Jones elements in there to be considered original. And the lighter stuff is just nu-metalish wankery... And to top it all off, the whole ""Supergroup"" thing is just a little much. Maynard, please... round up the boys and blow our minds again..."
+17791,2,Jane Austen writes Doc Smith,"High-powered space opera, spinning off ideas like fireflies; things tossed off as asides that would power entire books by lesser authors.Characters of immense depth and subtlety, in a complex and fascinating society, with gradually unfolding plots of depth and beauty (and horror, when considering some of the darker wheels within wheels turning inside the society of the Panarchy and its enemies). Heroes and villains, who are never cartoon-simple.Very considerable skill in writing.The rewrite for the e-book edition makes some things a trifle clearer that were confusing in the paper edition, but having these hard-to-find books now easily available is a great joy for the space opera fan.You need to read this, now."

+17793,2,A formula that works!,"Terry Brewer took the formula that has made thousands of people wealthy in the United States and throughout the world, and added his own unique perspective and humor to it. There is no more guessing as to what really works. We can no longer blame ignorance for failure or a life out of control; we now have to accept the responsibility for our future because we now have the tools with which to make it ours. Thank you Mr. Brewer!Be aware that this book (in my opinion) is not for those only casually interested in getting their lives in order. It's for serious readers.The exercise given in chapter one (page 18) alone is worth the price of the book. If you actually do what he says, it could change your total outlook on life and you may never be the same."
+17794,2,Best Litter I have been able to find,"After looking at all the various litter options (environmentally friendly, scented, scent-free, odor reducing...) I think this is the best litter I've found by a large margin. I live in a small space (1000 sq ft) and the litter box is in the guest bathroom meaning that people are constantly exposed to it. This litter does smell a little ""woodsy"" but overall it reduces smells, lasts longer (with a little scooping) and is cheaper on average than most. It also (very importantly) tracks a lot less than other litters I've used.Highlights: tracks less than other litters, reduces odors more naturally, uses less litter than other brandsDownsides: ""woodsy"" smell"
+17795,2,"Lana, Lana, Lana, LANAAAAAAAAA....","WHAT?Danger Zone.Archer is back and season three is as good as the previous two. Actually in some ways it's better, with guest stars like Burt Reynolds, Bryan Cranston, and Patrick Warburton adding to the already stellar cast, there's no reason NOT to love the world's most deadly secret agent."

+17798,1,"Not really for experienced knitters, either","Admittedly, I only attempted one of the projects in this book - the sailor doll. I am an experienced knitter, but despite my best efforts, this project was a disaster. I certainly do not plan to attempt another one from this book. The first problem I had was that I had ordered the yarn in accordance with the directions given - weight and amounts, and of the two main colors required for this project, the amounts were totally wrong. The piece required twice as much of one of the colors and four times as much of the other as was stated. This caused quite a bit of inconvenience and additional expense, and, of course, the re-order was not from the same dye lot. I agree with one of the other reviewers that eventually you can get used to the way Ms. Bliss phrases things, but the instructions are annoyingly vague - if you are not also an experienced seamstress, and even if you are, you might have difficulty following the directions for this project."
+17799,2,Great product,"Bob's Red Hill products are not only a great value, but taste great. I have shared these with friends and they feel the same as I, a wonderful buy."
+17800,1,Worked for a year... But that's it!,"I bought this flash drive in December of 2008. For a while it worked fine and suited my needs, although I didn't like the slide design. Something about it felt flimsy. It was not until a few months ago that all of my files on the drive were destroyed. When I would open the drive up, I would get may weird symbols where my files used to be. In the end, I tried deleting the flash drive and then putting the files back into it. That worked for a while until the flash drive started not to work on Apple computers. I would plug it into the computers at my school and they would not recognize it. I have a Mac and PC at home and it didn't work on the Mac at home either, however it did work on the PC. But it took a really long time for it to load. Do not buy this product! They seem not to last very long. Now I have to by a new one because it is completely useless if I can use it on a Mac."
+17801,1,exactly what frank was talking about,"If there was one thing that FZ hated, it was critics. Frank hated them because they didn't understand what he was doing. Frank hated them for not understanding music in general. But mostly frank hated them because as the old adage says: those who can, do; those who can't, teach; and those who can't teach, criticize.While this is a wonderfully written book, it is a critics view of Zappa. It expounds on the meanings Frank might have intended in his work, yet many of its quotations can be found in ""The Real Frank Zappa Book."" If you want to know what Zappa was really about, get that book, not ""The Negative Dialectics of Poodle Play."" Better to get information from the man himself, instead of through the eyes of a critic."
+17802,2,Chocolate Chip Cookie is Better Than Nookie? Not for kids!,"I really enjoy this CD, very fun and full of delight. The chocolate song is adorable, but parents beware! There is a phrase that says a ""chocolate chip cookie is better than nookie!"" Now , please! Even though children may not know what nookie means, it still should not be on a CD marketed for children. By all means buy it for yourself! But maybe not for your kids!!!"
+17803,1,Detestable Deception,"Once again, while searching for some clue to what a book on Amazon is about, I've found that the volume in question is in fact a book that was previously published under a new title, a fact nowhere acknowledged by Amazon or by the publisher. This time I stumbled on the evidence by checking the ""Look Inside"" feature, which displayed the earlier edition and title. Repackaging books in this way is surely an attempt to delude readers into making an unnecessary purchase. Customers should be wary, and publishers should be ashamed."
+17804,2,what a concept!,"This collection is truly amazing. To present the lives and careers of 70 famous Americans in such an innovative fashion is a remarkable achievement. The reason it works so well is, I feel, the brevity of the resume. The reader will learn quite a lot in just the few moments it takes to go over the entry. My two favorites are Isadora Duncan and Johnny Appleseed. And the introduction! Did that really happen? Someone should get ahold of Timothy Doe and find out."
+17805,1,One very annoying flaw: the D-Pad!,"Response is okay - if a bit slow - but the directional pad is not very stable at all (very noticable in puzzle games like Tetris or Dr. Mario, even brought up problems in some platform games) and so control is shaky. I will be returning mine shortly in order to try out something different, this is just aggravating me."
+17806,1,Worked well for the first few batches,"I was so pissed at this maker the other day, I visualized myself kicking it down my front yard! I've made ice cream for several years and have tried several makers. This one was reasonably priced and a brand that I was familiar with. It worked fine for the first few batches but the last two times, it's been terrible. The last batch that I made (I thought was frozen well), then I opened the canister and it was not. I finished it up in my Cuisinart freezerCuisinart ICE-20 Automatic 1-1/2-Quart Ice-Cream Maker, White(which works wonderfully but it just makes 1.5 quarts per batch). I purchased two of these and they both have problems, so it doesn't seem to just be an occasional flaw. Don't buy it!"

+17808,1,"Same story, different town","I first read the Yellow Rose Trilogy which I loved!!! That is why I bought the California series. I am giving this 2 stars not because it isn't a good book. It would have been a good book if I hadn't read the Yellow Rose Trilogy first. This is more of the same. Boy meets girl. Won't admit their love. Share a common faith. Finally admit they love each other. The only thing different is the names and the town!! Lori Wick is an excellent author and I share her faith in Christ. I just feel this is ""more of the same""."
+17809,2,Great,"It has made a big difference in our breathing. My wish is they should have a model which we can use per room, preferably wall hanging one. Expensive but worth every dollar."
+17810,1,Nice Product BUT......,"First of all, this is a very nice tackle box, it's quite large with loads of space to hold things. I bought this for beading supplies, not tackle gear and it's perfect for it.It arrived today, unfortunately two of the plastic cases are cracked and missing small pieces along the back. For the price I find that to be unacceptable."
+17811,1,Huh??,"I am actually writing this review before I have heard the entire CD. I just need to know why this is the third straight disc that contains ""NYC Girl"" & ""Keys To Your Heart"". I don't get this at all. His last album had 5 repeat songs from the one preceding that, and now this one repeats some of them again. Maybe after his nect release, I will be able to compile a complete disc of new material."
+17812,1,I don't get it...,"I absolutely hated this book and virtually every character in it. My whole book club, made up of women in their 50's, hated it. I can't imagine how it's become a classic; my only thought is that it's gotten that reputation after being read and reviewed by drunken, drug-crazed fraternity boys. There isn't a likeable character in the whole bunch. Dean, the one everyone seems so drawn to, is clearly manic, possibly even psychotic. Even though I skipped whole sections, what I did read was a horrible waste of my time; I never would have read as much as I did had it not been for the book club."
+17813,1,Sennheiser MX 55 earphones,"The quality of the product is fine but the padding around the earbuds and the supporting padding areas are the worst. I lose the padding on a consistent basis. The casing is an exercise of design over function. In order to put the ear phones back in the case, if takes a minute or two."
+17814,1,Actually I did not want to give it ANY stars !!!,"This book has no feelings in it. You get no personality from the characters, in fact I totally disliked Wants the Moon. You get no personal thoughts really of the people in the story and don't care what happens to them. The story line could have been very good if you liked anyone in the story, but, ALAS they all are hopelessly stupid and lack any depth what-so-ever !!! I will most assuredly not be buying the sequels :-("
+17815,2,Wonderfully Fun!,"I don't know who loves this disc more, me or my 3 year old! The Baby claps along too! Great songs that make you smile and tap your toes!"
+17816,1,Main point of Catch 22: Nothing is worth fighting for.,"First of all, the only part of the book that was worth reading was the end, but one thing that REALLY REALLY ANNOYED ME about this book is that is states:1. The military is bad and unorganized2. Whoever is in the military is an idoit3. Whoever opposes the military is heroicTHESE ARE COMPLETELY FALSE! I HATED THIS BOOK SO MUCH AND I THINK THAT IT SUMS UP TO..... MAIN POINT IN CATCH 22: Nothing is worth fighting for."
+17817,1,Nice design. Poor quality. Poor craftsmanship.,Despite hand washing as recommended one weld attaching the handle to basket rusted and broke after only a few uses. Closer inspection revealed the handle was only welded to the thin mesh of the basket and not to the thick outer ring! Lesson learned: Beware Cook's Illustrated recommendations!
+17818,1,This book has no substance and is mostly a chronology .,There seems to be no INSIDE STORY told here. Little more than what you would read in a newspaper. Evidently the arthur is bound by some Government legal oath which prevents him from writing anything of consequence. A piece of milk toast.
+17819,1,Certainly not the best introduction to Hemingway,"Perhaps I was distracted when I heard these short stories, but they seemed to lack substance. The characters seemed like passing shadows - I never knew them well enough to have any solid emotional attachment. The stories were all very short, and most felt incomplete. If you are just starting with Hemingway, try something else first. If you like his style, I'm sure you'll love this collection."
+17820,2,Under the Tuscan Sun,"This, together with ""Bella Tuscany"", is one of the best books I have ever read about contemporary life style in Italy. And, as an Italian born and raised less than 3 hours from Tuscany, I really think Mayes did a great job."
+17821,1,Good in theory,"Kinda a pointless book now that communism has been proven ineffective. I guess if you still want to live in this type of society you can move to Russa, China, Cuba etc. Lucky for them they have the US to give them foreign aid. Communism would be dead within a few decades without a capitolistic nation to support it."
+17822,2,"Great, as expected!","I ran to the bookstore to get Dr. Karp's new book based on my experience with his phenomenal book about babies. I can say that Dr. Karp has proven how genius he is again. So simple, yet so powerful. No wonder he keeps coming back to Dr. Phil's 101 Parenting show. He has real advice that any parent absolutely needs to hear. It made my life so much easier. I am still practicing my ""toddler-ese"" but I can see immediate results. The book is not just helpful but it is FUN to read.I have to say that, by adopting Dr. Karp's methods, I can enjoy my kids more. I have minimized daily struggles with them and maximized fun time we have together. That makes my kids love me even more, especially my 18 months old girl who is a real ""Neanderthal in my kitchen"".Thank you Dr. Karp. I love your books! And I am looking forward to seeing your video about toddlers."
+17823,2,Simple and effective.,"I would never rely on straps like this as a substitute for good supervision, but it does give me some extra peace of mind. These straps are more than adequate to hold up my bookcases and dressers. Installation is straightforward.The only downside is that you may not want these for nice, expensive furniture. You do have to drill some holes in the backside, which may bother some people."
+17824,2,Sonic Battle Bash!!,"If you like Sonic the heghog you'll love Sonic adventere battle 2! It has 12 charecters incudeing 2P battle:Sonic, (Duh!)Shadow, metel Sonic,Amy,Knukeles, Chos,Rouge,Tikal,Tails,Dr.eggman Chao walker and Dark Chao walker.You can even play as bad guys!And now for a low price!"
+17825,2,Red Rabbit--better than you have heard,"Many, many reviewers have taken their time in utterly bashing this book. Sure, it does not have the high intensity action of some of Clancy's older books, but for that it is no less interesting. The reader should beware that this is not a fast paced, action packed book, but it, while slow, is ultimately quite worthwhile. One quibble about the book was that while it seemed to take place in 1980-81, there is little mention of Pope John Paul II's first trip to Poland in 1979. That truly caused an earthquake in the communist world."
+17826,1,This company are sham artist. Do not buy from them.,"On the container of this product it says ""1 pound"". Here they advertise this product for a set price for ""2 pounds"". But they only mail ""1 pound"".Amazon should be ashamed doing business with bait and switch thieves."
+17827,1,Buyer PLEASE beware!,Purchased and recd alittle less than 3 mos. ago from Warehouse Deals. Mixer is broken after 3 times of use. Should have known better. Might be better to purchase a brand new one than a refurbished or returned item. Remember the motto - BUYER BEWARE.............
+17828,1,Overblown silliness,"This is truly one of the worst books ever written, a huge disappointment to anyone reading about U.S. domestic politics in the 20th century. The topic had great promise, but readers would be much better served picking up Christopher Matthews` book on Kennedy and Nixon or Robert Caro`s multi-volume biography of LBJ. Morrow`s prose is overwrought with far too much armchair psychologizing. He also has a dreadfully annoying, almost juvenile habit of using motion pictures to illustrate the points he wishes to make. It is a very unsuccessful literary device. Who at the publishers let this project see the light of day?"
+17829,2,Wonderful!,"As usual k.d. lang has shown her ability to harness any music genre she wishes. Ms. lang's voice is clear, sharp, and of quite exquisite tone... but who would ever expect anything less? One thing I didn't expect, however, is how generous the music lends itself to harmony. If I'm in the car, the house, hear it on the radio or whatever, I'm singing right along with her. The producing itself is a rare form... near perfect. The quality of the music itself is breathtaking as every aspect of each track is unequivocally soothing. This CD is definitely k.d. lang, and this CD is definitely a one-of-a-kind -- much like the artist. I question the validity of anyone not receiving any of this artist's music in open arms and asking, begging, for more."
+17830,1,Marginally better than V,At least it wasn't the worst Star Trek movie ever made. The characters were so unlike anything else in the Star Trek universe. And why would someone be driving a vehicle made hundreds of years before they were born?
+17831,1,wouldnt bother with it.,this thing leaked...not too bad but always had to have a towel set under it.not its fault...its the fault of the general design of the actual filter.
+17832,1,Can do better.,"They were easy to install, but are very difficult to put up and down. Awkward. They aren't all that sturdy either."
+17833,2,Simply mousing excellence by Logitech,"The look and feel of this mouse are absolutely perfect. Its large and feels as if it was literally sculpted to your hand. And oh yea it performs better than any other corded mouse I have used.With customizable buttons you can program the different buttons to do different things add to the fact that the battery life is excellent lasting weeks at a time. I definitely have a hard time thinking of anything bad about it because its simply a joy to use, exactly the way its supposed to be."
+17834,2,Dando's best work,"This album is without a doubt one of the best things to come out this year... The album sounds a lot like his past band the lemonheads but has a different groove to it... This one might be hard to pick up because not many stores are carrying it which is a shame because someone with no talent like madonna is on the shelves.... just don't let this one pass you by, it's anything but boring......."
+17835,2,Must reading,"I just finished this book, laughing and crying. I've had five brain surgeries and I wish I could make this book assigned reading for all the people (doctors included) who got me through it, as well as the small handful that couldn't deal with the inevitable damage and changes, and are no longer in my life.I loved everything about this book - its honesty and resilience - and agree that humor is the only way to deal with things that are not funny. Thank you Suzy!"
+17836,1,Missed for me,"While I thought the author had a nice handle on the English language her over-riding theme seemed to be a comparison of life on the Plains with Benedectine Monks. Knowing little about these monks, I felt like most of the book missed me."
+17837,1,sizes are wrong!,"The sizing on this product is completely wrong! I went by the size chart to order tights for my four year old, but upon recieving them, they are big enough to fit an adult. What a waste of money, although the tights were cheap, the shipping cost the same as the tights, so it's not even worth returning them and investing another dime in them."
+17838,2,Album's Dream,"One of the best albums ever, directly from the best times of Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds. FUll of rage, passion and... hear yourself."
+17839,2,He saved the best for last,"The patriotism was ridiculous and stupid. But the songs! This show was a landslide. Every song was a winner. Even the last one, if you're rock ignorant or don't give a damn. It has a great tune. And is well done. Pity. I think it's the best show Berlin ever wrote, at least it's the best one I ever heard. The singer/actors were adequate, they put the songs across."
+17840,2,Whistling Season,"This was my first reading of one of Ivan Doig books. I liked his humorous style of writing this as it helped visualize the characters,It was a good story that gave feelings and hope for the the people of the prairie.My objection to the Amazon version is that the editing was not good and mistyped words coming up too often."
+17841,1,Lousy product that fell apart,DO NOT buy this product as it does not last. Worked for one month and the fell apart.
+17842,2,"Superb story, on the edge of your seat, can't put it down!",This book is so incredible because it is a true story. It is amazing the hardships that Betty and her family went through. Every detail the way the author describes each situation grabs all your emotions. The ending will shock you! I highly recommend it!
+17843,1,terrible glare and eye strain,"I just got this for xmas. There's much to like but the glare on the screen is awful. This machine replaced a Sony Vaio which had no glare at all. After only a little use I feel a lot of eye strain. I hope I'm able to adjust to the glare or I won't be comfortable using this for any length of time. I like the feel of the keys and that the keyboard is wider with the number pad. The case exterior is really pretty. Although it's larger than my Sony, it's not as heavy. I haven't tried the battery life. I hope it's not as bad as others have indicated. For now, if it weren't for the glare, I'd be happy."
+17844,2,A couple of notes,"I got this to replace my A21m's CMOS battery. It worked.There are installation instructions on Lenovo's site but they're unnecessarily complicated. The battery is found under one of the two doors on the bottom of the case - the one with the modem card (?) rather than the main memory. The battery's off to one side of the compartment, partially hidden, and held with a plastic clip. The instructions say to remove the card but in fact you can simply slide the battery out through the narrow gap.The battery itself is just a connectorised CR2032. If you're feeling adventurous you could buy one of those and solder the old wires to it. Still, I paid $8.99 and I see the price is now $5.99 and the lead time longer - for this price, it's not really worth messing about."
+17845,1,PRINT SIZE IS 6.2 NOT 9.5,I HAD TO RETURN MINE DUE TO INACCURATE DESCRIPTION6.2 IS UNREADABLE FOR ME
+17846,2,Handy Cleaning System,These refills are great for this toilet cleaning system. I recommend the system because it is the best self cleaning toilet system in my opinion.
+17847,1,The plastic smell is awful. Save your money to invest in something that won't emit plastic fumes.,"I loathe ironing so I decided to try out a steamer, since I had a good experience using one to de-wrinkle clothes back in the day when I volunteered at a thrift store.Maybe my memories of the thrift store steamer were a bit too optimistic, because this steamer definitely isn't as efficient as the one I had remembered. It does the job eventually, but not without inconsistent steaming. Also, there's an awful plastic smell when you first turn on the steamer, which can't be good for your health.I may keep using this occasionally when I really need a good pressed shirt or suit, but I'm going to keep looking for something better. I don't recommend wasting your time on this one -- save your money for something that's more efficient and not so bad for your health."
+17848,1,Beware,"Beware of the currrent version of the exam--640-801 and 811! It seems to be designed to eatup and spit out newbies. I recently took it to recertify my ccna and narrowly failed it after easily passing the practice exam included with this book.This book covers more material than I think you need to know, but does not cover all of the material you'll need to know! Most importantly is that the router simulation questions included are much easier than they should be. I scored a 90 on the practice exam and failed the ccna. Beware."
+17849,1,a travesty of a reat movie,"My ratingt relates to the DVD, not the film. The seller did not mention that this is the heavily cut 61 minute version that eradicates the Asta Nielsen story completely, thus removing Werner Kraus from the film as well, apart from the butcher shop scene early on. Some omission! and information that the prospective purchaser needs to know. And it states on the box that the movie is 1 hour 30 minutes long ... most misleading. And the Mozart becomes very irritating after a while, it's so inappropriate in its unrelenting jolliness .. I watched the film silent after ten minutes of it ... there is a place for everything, and Mozart and Pabst's Joyless Street are in different solar systems ...."
+17850,2,Better than the soundtrack.,"I originally purchased the ""American Beauty"" soundtrack, which is a fine collection of songs ranging from Bobby Darin to Bill Withers. But it doesn't completely capture the heart of the movie like the score does. Thomas Newman's masterpiece scores, ""Dead Already"" and ""Still Dead"" are here, providing excellent bookends to a fabulous CD. My favorite selection is ""Root Beer,"" which is the song that played when Kevin Spacey's Lester Burnham first set eyes on Mena Suvari's character while she was cheerleading in the gym. It alone makes this CD a must-have."
+17851,2,Best of the trilogy,"I've read all three books and while the first two were interesting and fun, they didn't really connect for me with the ""universe"" that is the Terminator concept.This third book, however, really felt like it might happen, and was an extension of the existing movie-created story.Yes, the story jumps through the future, but those jumps skip over periods of time that would require a book (or multiple books) in themselves.Best part of this book? No cyber seals. Hated that foolishness about the 2nd book.While reading the previous two books would be helpful, it's not required. Check this book out, assuming you can find it!"
+17852,2,suspence,This was another great addition to the series Ture Blood. It always has new surprises as usual and new characters to add to the story and keep it very interesting.
+17853,2,Im happy,"I love it, it was delivered in a reasonable amout of time and i am very pleased. thank you very much"
+17854,2,Superb!!!,"This is one of the best DW novels I've ever read! It is superb! The writing is brilliant--funny, scary, adventurous, and action-packed. The plot is perfect. It all fits together so well. This is the best novel I've ever read with the 8th Dr. I highly recommend this one to any DW fan! Mr. Baxendale did a fantastic job. Get this one!"
+17855,1,Hate it.,This book messes up on Poomse's and other kinds of TKD moves. It's poomse's are unworthy. The people in this book are unworthy. DON'T buy this.
+17856,2,"DVD is where ""The Wizard of Oz"" belongs!","I'm ashamed to say just how many versions of TWOO I have. Let's see.... Beta (2), VHS (3), LD (1), DVD (now 2). This film classic has been a part of my life since first seeing it in the 1950s. I've watched it many, many times, and never cease to be amazed by the beauty of the story. This newest edition of the classic contains musch to make it a ""must have"". I found the documentary by Angela Lansbury, the outtakes, interviews, and audio tracks to be well worth the cost. In addition the color transfer is first-rate, better than any other of my editions."
+17857,2,Wonderful!,"As a general dentist, I usually recommend an oral, cemented appliance be placed in the mouth for up to three months to stop a finger or thumb habit. When my nearly 5 yr old son showed no progress with cessation, a friend recommended I try this product. It is without question the worst tasting product I've ever put in my mouth! Lasts for up to 3 days with one application. Does NOT wash off. My son stopped after only ONE application. Easily saves $300-$400 that one would normally pay for a habit appliance from the dentist or orthodontist. I now recommend this to all of my patients with a finger or thumb habit to prevent the malformation of the jaws and teeth that occur with the habit. Great product!!"
+17858,2,Unbelievable,"Wow! What a contrast to what we learned in history classes in school. Obviously, when reading about secret societies, scandals, cover ups etc., one cannot assume that all is valid. However, this book is very stimulating. Good food for thought, e.g. ""wow, what if this is true"".Epperson is very persuasive in his conspiratorial view of history. If you're a skeptic, you'll love this book. He does a great job of tying governments, wars, assasinations, to capital interests and economics. It's a great read."
+17859,2,Great sound,These earbuds have a great sound. I gave them 4 stars because they are a little big for my wife's ears and are not comfortable to wear for long periods.
+17860,2,Goat puppet cute but has stiff mouth,"This goat puppet is quality made and overall very nice. The only complaint I have is that the mouth is small and not very mobile. I use this puppet to teach children and, compared to my other Folkmanis puppets, this one takes much more work to use."
+17861,1,What happend to this series?????,I thought Guilty Pleasures was a fantastic book. I loved it!!! I continued on with the Anita Blake series and now it's turned into PORN!!! I'm on page 320 and have no idea what the hell this book is about!!! There is nothing but the ardeur. Ardeur with anything that moves!!! I'm giving up. It's such a shame that such an imaginative writer with such great characters has turned into this MESS!!! Typos all over the place. Grammatical errors. Laurell does not care about these characters anymore and neither do I. Huge waste of time and money.
+17862,2,Could not put it down,The ultimate forensic science novel. I cared about the characters. I hope this is the first in a long series.
+17863,2,Unhappy,"The item was great, being a phone battery, however, the weight was in ounces,(package and battery), and I was charged shipping for 6 pounds. Outrageous!! When questioned they said that was the cost of shipping. On their site shipping was quoted as $6.97 +/-. I was charged almost $11.00. Would NEVER do business with this company again."
+17864,1,DONT BUY THESE,$10 is alot to pay for panty hose that run the first time you gently slide your foot in them!!And the color was more like white then gold! AWFUL!! Dont even think about it!! Go to JCPenny instead better hose at a cheaper price!!
+17865,2,Beautiful little cups,"These cups and saucers are great. The colors are lovely and it's fun to mix and match cups with saucers. They are a nice size and, wonderfully, dishwasher safe."
+17866,1,Good luck,"This is my third router and I'm getting ready to go purchase #4, but it won't be a skill. This router seemed to be a good deal until I started trying to cut dovetails with it and I found that the depth of the cut would change without warning, not minute changes, but big changes of about an 1/8th of an inch; wow! For some reason the clamp on the base is not secure, I don't know if it's vibration or what, but a change in depth will significatly change the value of a dovetail. This afternoon this one will be listed on Craigslist."
+17867,1,Not worth my time,"I found this book dull. It really doesn't get going until the final third and unless you have an unnatural level of interest in Japanese consumer credit, it's really not worth the effort. As other reviewers have noted, the ending is anti-climactic."
+17868,1,Did stephen king really write this one???,"First I'd like to state that i really love almost everything by king. This book is a real stupid one. Nothing speacial about it, it has only two real simple plots that innonate nothing. Maybe the heberw translater was a real bad one, or king just wrote a stupid book."
+17869,1,Total Waste of Money,"I totally agree with a previous reviewer - it counts movements when there are none, continually, and keeps resetting the total, over and over. I bought this one for the safety cord because I kept dropping the Sportline 360 which I love otherwise but I have broken (3) and lost (1).Needless to say, the cord is useless because I no longer bother to use it at all. A huge disappointment."
+17870,1,Hope for Them,"�Hope for Us�, which opens The Jealous Sound�s long-awaited debut (their only EP was released in 2000), is one of those classic introduction cuts that set up high expectations for the songs that follow. kill them with kindness offers 11 other tracks of varying modern rock quality � none as must hear as the opener. After the faux-Anglo phrasing of �Hope for Us�, Blair Shehan and John McGinnis trade vocals in the style of Dashboard Confessional, Blink 182, and Green Day. Nothing makes me push the reject button. In fact, �The Fold Out� and �Troublesome� light up with power pop energy. And �Recovery Room� is like good slow Sebadoh. But nothing compels me to listen obsessively, either. But I await a sophomore effort in the hopes that they find the magic that is evidently close to their grasp."
+17871,1,Predictable,"Everything about this book was predictable: the romantic side story, the dialog, the plot, the descriptions.... the writing felt tired, over-wrought and cliched. I gave the book two stars simply because it made for fast, easy reading on a long travel day, but that's about the best I can say about it."
+17872,1,Too cheap,"The outside rod screws in from the bottom, and it is a peice of sheet metal. It does not feel very substantial. I gave it 2 stars, because it is shiny.The screws get wobbly after some use, and you will look like an idiot for buying it. I used it on a job site rest room, and the crew thought it was tacky. I did not bring it home after the job was completed.It might look nice in a mobile home at Eatonville's River Bend Trailer Park. It is shiny."
+17873,1,Doesn't Play,"Don't buy it. Sent 1st one back because it wouldn't play, the 2nd one only played in German. The few minutes I watched looked boring anyway. Terrible product."
+17874,1,Spanish Now 8.0,"I planned to brush up on the Spanish I had not used in 10 years. From the description, this seemed like the proper package. From the time I opened the box I was lost. There are no loading instructions, workbook or guide as to how to use the software. I had to call the manufacturer's 800 number to load it. After that I still had no idea where to start since there were dozens of icons to press. I pressed a few. A video of a conversation appeared. I wasn't sure it it was lesson one or lesson 100. It may be a wonderful program, but I returned it because I had no concept of where to start."
+17875,1,A long way to go for not very much,"Folks, what can I say? There's an awful lot of books out there. And there isn't enough time to read even a tiny fraction of them. so, when an author with a name and reputation like Robert Silverberg come along, you expect alot. The front of the book refers to this overly long book as his masterpiece. I hate to see what the rest of his portfolio looks like. Don't get me wrong, as always, he has a great premise, somewhat original, and it is definitely intriguing. But the ending of this book may be the lamest excuse for writing that I have ever witnessed. It's pretty embarrassing. I don't understand what happened. Perhaps he ran out of time and he just had to finish it. Skip this one, please."
+17876,1,Not so Good,"In the first day I liked of the machine, but 2 day, started to leak on the side of the cup, and doesn't make enough foam...I was disapointed and I returned after that I bought a De longh machine and now I'm happy."
+17877,1,Complete waste of money,"I bought this battery from Amazon using Prime, hoping that the chances of getting a reputable product were improved. They were not. This was a complete waste of money. I charged the battery when received for over 24 hours. I disconnected the phone from the charger the second evening; before morning, the battery was completely discharged. WITHOUT A SINGLE CALL, THE BATTERY DISCHARGED IN LESS THAN 10 HOURS! Save yourself the aggravation -- and the money. If I could give zero stars, I would do it."
+17878,1,VTech 6032 DECT 6.0 Cordless,The phone is great as far as sound quality. However the battery life is terrible. Also there is no battery life indicator to let you know when its low. You can see a battery icon only while the phone is on the charger. Even then it doesn't indicate full or low. Only that its charging. It dies after being off the charger for only 12 hrs. Talk time is like 2.5 hrs. I just returned it. Uniden is much better for battery life.
+17879,1,Nothing worth sinking your teeth into,"I'm definitely a fan of Laurell Hamiltons earlier works so I enjoyed her story. However, Charlaine Harris, in my opinon always leaves something to be desired. MaryJanice Davidson alternates between amusing and annoying with the childish antics that go on between the vampire couples. Did NOT enjoy Angela Knights' story-too much sex, not enough substance. Still for a bit of fluff when you're totally bored it might be worth picking up. But i recommend the library so you can spend your money on one worth keeping."
+17880,1,Da Vinci Con!,"Alright besides his ignorance and complet absurdities this guys makes in this illogical and inaccurate story, he blantly shows his stupidity in stating that the dead sea scrolls were discovered in the 1950s. Well every 6th grader knows that they were actually discovered in 1947, now if he can get a basic fact incorrect, how can the rest of his ""facts"" be correct?"
+17881,1,Disappointed,"I have many GE phones, and I have had the most problems with this one. I had to send in my first one for repairs, and they sent me a second one. I got the second one back, and it still didn't work. I am very disappointed in this product."
+17882,2,Finally,"I have been searching for over two years, but I gave up a while ago. Then one Sunday evening,I went to Amazon, typed in ""The Norman Conquests"" for the hundreth time, and I fell out of my chair and let out a yell when I saw the three tapes for sale--I received my delivery in two days and a smile hasn't left my face.The show is brilliant--clever,witty and charming.I also enjoy watching others see it for the first time, especially people who had to listen to me over the years go on and on about""Norman"" WATCH AND ENJOY!"
+17883,2,Very Good,"Okay I'm very cautious about my skin because It's very sensitive, oily and I had spots on my face from past breakouts that I wanted to go away especially because I'm going on a trip to Atlanta Ga and it's for modeling so I really want my skin to look nice so far Iv'e used this product twice and it works very well it's not oily it doesn't cause more breakouts for me and it's working fast like really fast I'm going to put more on tonight before bed and wash my face in the morning and I'm shore my spots will almost be gone because I can barely see them now I had to write this so other women or men will know it is good you can also put it on your body as well it works fast there too lol I hope this helps because I was cautious at first but I really like it!"
+17884,1,LOUSY advice,"This book was shockingly outdated with rather bad information. Strangely, it is anti-breastfeeding, or at least not very encouraging of breastfeeding, and even misogynistic. There is not much offered as far as technique to help those babies who really need lots of touch and want to be constantly held (the help I was looking for). He doesn't address the tougher questions. Sure, if a baby is fussy it's ok to wait it out and see if he calms. But what if your baby is wailing? This book does not address how to teach the baby to self calm. He also talks about ""communicating"" with your baby, but it's all very vague."
+17885,1,APBT Book Review,"A general guide to the Apbt, the history sections of all Stratton's books are exellent, but that is history.a large part of the rest of this book should be for looking at the pictures, as quite a bit of the information is not the best for a new pit bull owner, there are a lot of misconceptionsabout the true trainability & potential of this great breed, for purposes other than fighting.A book that would cover this very well, is the Working Pit Bullby Diane Jessup."
+17886,2,Regarding A Monster Attack,"I was really blown away by this film. The concept of a hand-held camera filming the whole thing was well concieved and well executed. It really made the film come across on a more personal level, yet it wasn't excessive.The creatures were truly terrifying and realistic. I hope that the Academy will recognize this with some sort of SFX award come Oscar season.The acting was what really impressed me, though. Unlike normal movies where the cast pretends the camera isn't there, these actors recognized the camera, and came across as real people in that situation. Very impressive ensemble.I know a lot of people hated it, particularly the way it ended. At the risk of sounding very corny; I found that one way to appreciate it more is to look at it as a sort of love story. If you think of the main plot line as the Rob/Beth relationship, with the monster attack supporting it, it really is a very good movie.Four and a half stars."
+17887,2,Tiene Que Ser Amor,"An extremely talented quartet of FRESH voices which appeals even to old timers like me (66). Sparx presents a superb mixture of superb voices, great lyrics, and outstanding instrumental accompaniment. Their rendition of ""La Rana"" alone is worth the TWICE the price of the CD."
+17888,2,Not much to say,"Mechanix gloves are pretty much always a solid purchase. This is the third pair I've bought, and they've all been good quality, etc. They're not the most protective gloves in the world (for that, look for the impact-resistant version), but they're very good, and certainly help handle issues with heat, and lack of grip."
+17889,2,THE WALTONS COMPLETE FOURTH SEASON,I THINK THERE ARE NOT MANY SHOWS ON TELEVISION TODAY THAT COULD COME CLOSE TO WHAT THE WALTONS BROUGHT TO MANY AMERICANS WHEN IT WAS TELEVISED MANY YEARS AGO. I THINK THAT IF THERE WERE SHOWS LIKE THE WALTONS ON TELEVISION TODAY OUR KIDS WOULD NOT NEARLY HAVE THE STRUGGLES THAT THEY HAVE TO DEAL WITH ON A DAILY BASIS. ONE EXCEPTION TO THIS WOULD BE SEVENTH HEAVEN OTHER THAN THAT TELEVISION HAS CROSSED A BOUNDARY THAT WOULD NOT BEEN TOLERATED SAY 30 YEARS AGO.GOD BLESS AMERICAMARK A. WEBBER
+17890,2,Love em!,"Ordered the exact same pair I've had for years. Wouldn't change. Super comfy. Definitely run large. I normally wear a 6.5 and I ordered a 36, which fits perfectly."
+17891,1,No substance,Entire movie is about Jeremy Renner trying to get pills. Little to no plot or substance. Chase scene at the end of the movie seems to last for about 40 minutes. One of the worst big budget movies that I have ever seen. Save your $5 and rent something else.
+17892,2,Thought provoking military history,"If you are interested in the development of war, this is an excellent read, otherwise turn away. The author shows how Napoleon's decline began as his enemies fought like he did, in a modern fashion. He makes the case that war as we understand it today began in 1809. The maps are wonderful, although the level of operational detail was a bit much."
+17893,1,Hated it!,This CD sounded like water being poured onto a flat rock instead of the sound of raindrops. The rain sound was so irksome that I didn't even notice the thunder. A big waste of money.
+17894,2,Take Me Away,This was great! I've always wanted a trip on the Venice Simplon Orient Express and this is just what I need to see for a preview. Trip will be in the future! Definitely get a feel for the luxury and attention to detail on the trip.
+17895,2,This is excellent album,This was a inspirational album. I have led half the songs in my church congregation. They are simply wonderful. So soothing and magnificent.
+17896,2,"Nice size, great color","I bought the Roundabout for my husband's car after purchasing the Marathon for mine. I originally bought the Marathon after reading that tall children outgrow the Roundabout pretty quickly (my daughter is 80% in height). So I bought the Marathon and compared to the Roundabout, it is pretty big. I really love the size and shape of the Roundabout and wish I bought it for my car. The straps dont seem to get twisted like they do on the Marathon. And the Roundabout is much smaller, less bulky and easier to install via seat belt (as opposed to Latch which is easy either way) than the Marathon. I also LOVE the color. Onyx is a fantastic color in person. I bought the Marathon in granite and the color is not as nice as the onyx. All in all, if I had to do it over again, I would purchase 2 Roundabouts in onyx."
+17897,2,Great stroller for the $$$,"I bought this stroller a month ago and it has been great. I use it solely for running in the mornings. It's comfortable for my daughter, handles bumps in the road and sidewalks with ease, it's easy to push, and was very cheap compared to other joggers.The only reason why I didn't give it 5 stars is because there is a slight steering issue. It pulls a little to the left. My husband thinks he can fix it though.Overall - great stroller for the price. If you want a jogging stroller specifically for jogging - this would be a great choice."
+17898,1,Item is NOT as pictured,"The clock's face looks like a nice cool blue-green LED in the photo, and the plastic overlay it ships with is basically that same color. But the clock itself has ugly yellowish numbers, sort of the color of infected mucus. (Holding the plastic shipping overlay next to the powered-on clock is almost comical, the difference is that extreme.) Given that the main appeal of this clock -- the only way it differs substantially from so many others available here -- is the color of the numbers, I can't possibly recommend this to anyone who isn't colorblind."
+17899,1,Wasn't worth buying,I have run this cleaner multiple times and my VCR still shows the clean the heads warning. Nothing has happened. Very disappointed.
+17900,1,A major Disapointment,"I entered into this book expecting the timeless classic everyone talks about. But it's not, the writing is so-so the story is a bore, the characters are dated and the twists are so overly perfect that it couldn't be real life. The connections Salinger makes throughout the story are so obvious and forced that it made me want to laugh, I could write better then this. A complete waste of an hour!"
+17901,2,"celine dion, a new day","product was great. Amazon sent two copies and charged me for two, I only clicked on one. Is this a new way of making money? I kept the second copy so I guess Amazon's mistake worked, huh? Will think again about ordering from Amazon, as this was the second time this has happened."
+17902,1,Dorothy got there first!,"I agree with the person who called this book psychobabble. The story rambles and pretty much goes nowhere--old bromides in an reused package. This journey was an unsuccessful vehicle to deliver the wisdom of the ages. Dorothy discovered There's no place like home! on the way to Oz in a much more compelling story. So did the friends she picked up along the way. People who like the fantasy genre would undoubtedly enjoy it more than I did. A waste of time; good thing it was so short. Two stars because it was totally clean, otherwise only one."
+17903,1,Boring,"The problem with this book, is that you cannot argue for copyrights on one hand, and against them on the other. Either there is intellectual property or there is not. If there is not, then it is a government granted monopoly, and government granted monopolies can be shown to be less efficient then the market. As such, this means that copyrights would not do a better job at encouraging ingenuity. The thing is the book seems to talk about the philosophy of it a lot more then the reality of it."
+17904,1,A truly dangerous product,"I purchased the previous incarnation of this product TO1660B. The bump out in the back, apparently used in other Black & Decker models as well, gets so hot it melted, not one, but two other appliance cords down to the bare wire, and the cord material stuck on the back of the oven and burned. Heaven help you if you happen to drop a napkin or something really flammable back there. This product should be illegal."
+17905,1,don't buy this cd,"new york salsa is title -- teaching on one, real new york salsatheir dancing is atrocious, you will pick up many horrible fundamental dance habits you will have to unlearn later. this dvd is dangerous for a dancer to buy. starting with the cbl, male's huge back step on 5.don't buy this dvd and if you have it, throw it in the trash."
+17906,2,Good aftermarket tailgate lock,"This aftermarket tailgate lock was installed on a 2005 Chevrolet Silverado Extended Cab Truck. The bezel is almost identical in look and feel compared to the GM factory bezel. The lock retention screw provided was way too short. You will need to go to a local hardware store to get a longer one. The key locking mechanism they provide is of good quality. The two keys they provide looks and feels really good to the touch and locks and unlocks the tailgate lock with fairly good precision. For around $25.00 this is a good product compared to the much more expensive POP N Lock. Careful when removing the factory bezel if you intend to keep it because the retaining clips may break off. After installation, you will be surprised to find that this aftermarket talilgate lock in reality looks and works very good."
+17907,1,Editor needed!,"I kept being pulled out of a fairly enjoyable book by the desperate need of a copy editor. These were not just errors caused, perhaps, by transition to digital. These were poor English! Continual misuse of pronoun case, convoluted sentences, and sentences which seemed to go nowhere. A professional editor is certainly worth the price!"
+17908,1,Still unanswered questions,"Considering this book, one must understand it was printed in 1983 and tell-all stories were not quite so ""in your face"" as they can be now. I did expect, and still would like to hear more about the actual autopsies in more detail, as it is barely discussed in this book. However, it is still an interesting accounting of controversial deaths, but will not answer those troubling questions most of us still debate. I found the first chapter about Natalie Wood to be the most enlightening. She really fought for her life, but still no one has satisfied the original question of why she tried to leave the boat in the first place. I must admit that he did more to elevate the status of forensics than any other individual in his field. Maybe Dr. Noguchi will do a more in depth book in the future and concentrate more on the cases than his troubled political life."
+17909,2,Nigella Uber Allus!,"It turns out that beautiful, funny, smart, rich women can write great cookbooks. I've been a big Nigella fan for a long time. She is one of my favorites and her books are creative, inspiring and uncomplicated. How to Eat is just the latest in a long string of great cookbooks. The Brits have nearly cornered the wonderful cookbook market. They've been tops for several years now. Oliver, Lawson, Slater, Prince, Hom, Carrarini, Hopkinson, and that guy who butchers his own meat whose name I can't recall at the moment. They have inspired me greatly!"
+17910,1,Wicked Book!,I do not think this book is suitable for people. It has much sexual content and should not be on the shelves for children!!!!!
+17911,2,I have had great succes with this female sex aid,"I am very happy I found this winning product. I have gotten over whatever was holding me back from being responsive to any sexual advances, or even self inposing efforts to have relieved myself of sexual frustration. This product is highly effective."
+17912,2,Radio Test,Product is extremely easy to use. Used while on vacation in the islands on a cruise. It is an ideal method for communiction when you are with large parties. Clarity isn't bad but not great. Worked better in open areas.
+17913,1,sitting in a warehouse for years,"by the condition this pakaged arrived in, it could have been smuggled across the ""Rio Grande"" on the backs of illegals, and arrived in better shape"
+17914,1,I wish I could rate the item!,I would love to rate this item but that would require for me to have recieved an item in the first place.Accesoryone has gave me nothing but trouble regarding my order & then threathned me by saying if I want a full refund I would have to retract my comment that I posted stating the problems that I was having with them.The bottomline is I will never order anything from this seller anymore!!!
+17915,1,Stay away......,"I bought two of these as a christmas gift, one for my parents and one for my in-laws. BOTH died within one year after purchase. The company said they are not repairable and told me there was nothing they could do. Garbage product."
+17916,2,AWESOME CLASSIC AND ANYTHING ELSE YOU CAN SAY,"ONE OF THE BEST ALBUMS EVER RECORDED ...FILLED WITH MEMORIES (AND I WAS ONLY 2 AT THE TIME)..A REALLY REALLY 60'S TRIP BACK IN TIME TO THE DAYS OF EXTREME MELODY, HARMONY, PAIN, HATE, RIOTS IN THE STREETS, WARS, COOL CARS, 16 YEAR OLD CHICKS RUNNING AWAY FROM HOME, BLACKS NOT BEING ABLE TO VOTE, DYSFUNCTION, EXTREME SADNESS...ITS ALL HERE..BABY...AND ITS ALL WAITING FOR YOU ....ARE YOU READY TO TAKE THE JOURNEY...ARE YOU READY TO TAKE MY HAND?...WELL CLOSE YOUR EYES THEN...AND LETS JUST LET THE VOICE OF GRACE AND MARTY TAKE US BACK...START COUNTING BACKWARDS NOW FROM 10 , 9 , 8 ....AND WE WILL BE THERE SOON"
+17917,1,Toy dog??,"I love how this blanket looks, but it is soooo tiny. It's literally the size of three hand prints. My westie is only three months and it won't cover him fully. Many people who reviewed this product said their dog bite the head off, but my pup hasn't. He doesn't seem to be interested in the blanket especially after we bought him a bigger and softer blanket. This ""blanket"" should be use to dry dishes. ;)"
+17918,2,Great light for the price,I now have three of these lamps. They are wonderful for reading as well as crafts. I also use it for full spectrum benefits. It is surprisingly sturdy and looks more expensive then the price. I bought one for my 89 year old mother and she is able to read without difficulty again. I have recommended this product to many people.
+17919,2,Best of the Vampire Chronicles!,"Anne's telling of the creation of vampires is truely unique and imaginative. A must for anyone who loves mystery, suspense and fantasy. The cast of characters that Anne creates is rather large, but in the end, all the characters come together in an amazing ending. Anne Rice has truely out done herself with this chapter in the chronicles. A definate must read!"
+17920,2,Highly eductional; great for the early blues,"Very comprehensive; from Slavery era through the 60s, provides a long list of the men and women who created the blues and the following generations that assimilated and popularized them. Discusses the social, economic and political forces that influenced them as well. Good educational read. Pretty much ends at the Muddy Waters/BB King heyday of the 60s. If you're looking more for the modern blues (the Alberts, Buddy Guy, Clapton, Hendrix, SRV even) then this one is not for you. However, if you want to know about the guys (and gals) from whom the modern-era bluesmen learned their chops, this is your book."
+17921,2,"Some good ideas, and some good research","This book has some good ideas, i enjoyed it. The author knows more about the government than some want to believe. You have to check on some of the ""cures"" yourself - do more research if you want to be sure.Those who only review ""the author"" really should not buy his books. If you think he makes more money than the government OR the drug companies, youre wrong. I've worked for both for many, many years."
+17922,1,This cable prevents global warming,"Since the dawn of man (or maybe 1978), the earth has been warming at an alarming (or maybe just normal given the current solar activity) rate. However, since this cable was introduced, the earth has actually cooled. Therefor this cable has single hand...double endedly solved man's greatest threat (or miscarriage of science)."
+17923,1,DVD Does Not Work,"Great Movie, I've been looking for it for ages, and I was thirlled to find it on DVD. However, the version done by Anchor Bay Entertainment does not work on either DVD players I own. When I brought it back, I was told that the DVD does not work on many peoples' DVD players, so beware, Anchor Bay Entertainment's version on Space Camp might not work! (I own other Anchor Bay Entertainment DVDs and they work fine, so don't worry about buying other DVDs from them!)"
+17924,2,Best one yet!,"This is the third in Betsy James's Seeker Chronicles, and the best yet. Start with Long Night Dance, continue with Dark Heart, and then finish up with Listening at the Gate. The story takes you to another world, where seals and humans have a history together, where multiple cultures collide, and where a girl must grow to be a woman in difficult times. The artwork in all three books is also by Ms. James, and is a delightful addition, allowing you to see her characters and world as she imagined them herself. Must read for both teens and adults!"
+17925,2,Just what I wanted,This is just what I hoped it would be. I customized it by cutting the corners of the lip closest to the tailgate and tucking it under the plastic trim piece that holds down the carpet. Nice clean look for my 1999 Jeep Cherokee.Geep
+17926,1,A Tribute to the Music of Frank Zappa,Too old of a concert thought this was something done now! will never watch again. didn`t sound good either
+17927,1,Banksy own me an apology!,"He got me with ""Exit Through the Gift Shop"" (excelent, moving, inspiring, don't miss it) then asking for more I found this piece of %$#@. I'm totally pissed off but also I'm slowly starting to suspect that this is a lesson from Mr. Banksy to a consumer like me ... Yeah now I feel that I deserve this. That's it! Tonight I'll have a nasty nightmare with a dinner that never ends with all the stupid annoying people from this crap. Including the cheap reality explotation team (Director & DOP) Shame on you guys, I hear Paris Hilton is available! Good night...ZzzZzzzzz.... AaaaHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH Nooooooooooo the dinner Nooooooo !"
+17928,1,Awful attempt at renacting a decent tv series,"Why did they bother with this? She's got many fans, a hit series, why not make loads of money by releasing a substandard game? That is the view that the company behind this must have undertaken.Firstly the graphics are terrible! Cut scenes are awful and the in-game graphics are just diabolical! next the gamplay, terrible! A really bad attempt of turning Xena into a tomb raider clone, levels that are bugged fights that are uninvolving and just a whole game engine that doesn't work!On the plus side the chacram is cool in this! If you throw the chacram you go into a pov situated behind and control it! meaning that you can hit out of the way switches, close drawbridges and kill enemies with the cleanest of ease.However despite this it doesn't stop the game from being terrible! Please just avoid this and get something like Resident evil 3 or syphon filter 2. They are far more enjoyable than this pile of dung!"
+17929,2,"very comfortable, nice looking exercise shirt","I have similar shirts from Adidas, Nike, Russell, and New Balance. This shirt is among the best of the moisture wicking shirts I've owned. The fabric feels nice -- a little less synthetic feeling than most of the others, despite it being nearly all polyester -- and the cut is just right, being neither too tight nor too loose."
+17930,1,Very Disappointed,This was a boring series of scenes of her backstage; maybe should have read description better; thought is was a performance dvd
+17931,2,Another great Big Band singer's book,"The stories about the girl singers are so rarely written about. Interviews with Doris Day, Kitty Kallen, Rosemary Clooney, Jo Stafford, Teresa Brewer, Lynn Roberts, Diana Krall, Helen O'Connell, Connie Haines ( the best of them all) Helen Forrest, Peggy Lee and others are simply wonderful. I feel I now know them all. And the tribute to Billie Holiday and Ella Fitzgerald is beautiful. There's even a nice story about Josephine Baker that I loved. Five stars for sure."
+17932,2,This book has helped me so much.,"Generally my strategy of looking at book reviews is to look at all the negative points first but I just cannot believe how helpful this book was to me and my family. I am a hardcore attachment parenter and found this to be a helpful, human look at discipline. Every person I know who has read this book was also deeply affected by it. For me it was right up there with the book by the same authors ""Siblings without rivarly""... and on top of that, it was such an easy book to read I felt like I was reading a novel. Parts of it made me cry and others made me laugh. And there were so many things I was able to use in my parenting right away. I noticed an immediate change in my parenting style and the kids were so much happier and more respectful!"
+17933,1,"Cleans up quickly, juices efficiently","Pros: quick, easy clean up. Easy to feed pulp back through to get as much juice as possibleCons: juicer gets hot and heats the juice (not good for maintaining nutritional content)blades were dull within 8 months, Champion replaced themSee my review about the Breville - blows the Champion away"
+17934,1,STUPID!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!,All I can say about this book is that it is the stupidest book I ever read.
+17935,1,Script Forgot the Golden Rule,"This was by far, the worst choice for best picture. The plot forgot one important point, it is important to ensure that the viewers 'like' your characters. Here we have a man having an affair with his best friends wife. And is the wife's husband mean to her, is he cruel, no. How can we understand what drove them together and feel good about their relationship. Truth is, we can't, and so we don't feel any sorrow for their doomed relationship. Of course, if the English Patient was the President of the United States and the wife was an intern and the DOW is at 9000, then maybe we could."
+17936,1,Boring and annoying,"You will be wondering why it is called elephant: Let me explain why, because it is slow and stupid! The majority of the movie is a camera (very low budget camera I might add) over the shoulder following each student through a very large high school building. THAT'S IT, THAT'S THE WHOLE MOVIE. If you enjoy watching someone walk, then maybe you will like this, I' not exaggerating either, Oe of the kids walks from one end of the building to the other in a scene that last for more than 10 minutes. Then when that seen finishes, your right behind another student, and same thing. You will not grow attached to the characters at all. This movie was such a great concept, and they had to crap it up. They could have elaborated way more on the students, the bulling and their lifestyles. This is grade A defecation. To top it off, the ending has no resolution, it leaves you hanging with unresolved issues. OH and the gore was limited"
+17937,1,Disappointing to say the least,"Most of the info in this book is quite out of date (the book is a 1988 reprint of a 1961 book). I was expecting lots of good info on the technicalities of what is required for scientifically accurate illustrations but in fact that is only a small part of this book. Not a lot of illustrations either, so again not too helpful. All in all, a disappointing book that is way out of date and therefore not very useful."
+17938,1,"Nice suite, but Virtual PC 7 disappoints on my G5","I purchased the upgrade since I'd already bought both Office v.X and Virtual PC 6.1 last year.The biggest letdown is that Microsoft's promised support for the G5 is nearly non-existent. I have a dual processor G5 with an ATI Radeon 9800 card (Apple), and after trying to install Virtual PC 7 three times, I cannot get a VM to work. It did install (and work) flawlessly on my G4 Powerbook. Googling for reviews finds it's very hit or miss, but if (when) it misses, you'll regret investing the extra $$$ in an immature product."
+17939,2,album title,"I really loved the show too, especially the music...so i looked up Buffalo Tom's CD...the song titled "" Late at Night"" is from the "" Red Letter Day"" album...i hope MSCL comes back soon, although i watched Lifetime and it showed a preview saying that it would air on that station..but i don't know when it will start!"
+17940,1,Not Good,"I was so disappointed, it would not budge my slightly rusted screw, even with repeated spraying of loosing product. In fact, it would not even grip a perfectly proportioned screw..not a good buy."
+17941,1,No more,"From what I've seen of Bijou in interviews, at clubs, etc. she is a spoiled brat and a vile human being. And, if possible, her ""music"" is even worse. Her voice is thin and out of tune. To see a no-talent girl like Bijou get a record contract convinces me of the unfairness of the world. Other people say to buy this album despite her because her backing musicians are good. Well then why, oh why did they choose to hook their star to hers?"
+17942,2,A little more clarity,"It would be nice if Leonard Maltin was the one writing the books under his name. I have my doubts.A load of information and reviews, somewhat hastily assembled, and some minor things stand out. Other than biographical details, he (or his assistant) errs in saying Clark and McCollough was a fine comedy team. I've seen a handful of the shorts, and they're pretty irritating. Just because something isn't available doesn't mean its good.Overall a good place to begin a search for good films and comedy teams."
+17943,1,Shame On You Amazon!!!!!,"This is a WARNING to anyone thinking about buying this innocent blender. DON'T!!!!This is a sicko trap to steal your hard earned money, and Amazon- you should be ashamed.The blender looks good and works for a few times, but then the electronics, which are total junk, go kerfluey and that is all she wrote folks. Kiss your money good bye."
+17944,2,Cool Alice Show!!,Ok the sound and picture quality isn't that great. This is probably just how it was filmed. On the other hand this is a classic Alice show that a older fan shouldn't miss. One of his best stage shows and bands in my opinion. Too bad not a cleaner copy but this is all we have from this tour. Worth checking out.
+17945,2,Step by Step Writing Comedy,This book generates good ideas...but you have to do the exercise to be creative. Published in 1982 but it still provides basic principles of comedy writing in year 2002 and beyond.
+17946,1,Negative reactions do NOT imply a powerful book,"I feel compelled to highlight that negative reactions do NOT imply a powerful book. The stream of negative responses are concerned primarily with Kim's harassment of women. The book has not 'pinched people's consciences'; rather those who have witnessed him in action feel compelled to speak out. From personal experience, I can vouch for the fact that Christian Kim is a nuisance to women. He is inept at normal adult conversation, talking at you with persistance despite obvious discomfort. This book should never have been written, and Christian Kim should be expelled from Cambridge."
+17947,1,SHOT LIKE A CHEAP PORNO,Love Uncle Ted.Film is shot like a cheap porno.Cant crank it up. Audio lousy. Not punchy at all. Video is home style as well. Poor production all around.
+17948,1,Worst Parenting Book Ever!,If you actually love your child more than you love yourself you won't follow this book! Do some real research on Gary Ezzo...
+17949,2,The best book ever!,I just finished reading the book last night and loved it! I was worried it would be little kiddish but i'm 17 and loved it!! I would recommened this book to just about anyone!!
+17950,2,captive star,Nora Roberts fans should read this serious and any book she wrights since she places you as the read right into the middle of the action.
+17951,1,This was supposed to ba F***ing horror movie!,"they advertised this movie like it was going to be a scary monster in the woods movie and I saw it because the sixth sense and signs were good, but it was so BAD, the biggest threat in the movie was a retarded guy! come on a RETARDED guy! The monsters were not real they were always people in costumes (unless you think of retarded people as monsters). It was so stupid the worst twist in any movie ever! and I would give this movie zero stars but thaty wasnt an option. dont see this movie, dont give M. night Shamamalon more money, HE DOES NOT DESERVE IT!"
+17952,2,Heartbreaking and Lovely,"This is such a wonderful book on so many levels. This book contains a beautiful love story, complicated family dynamics and fascinating depictions of WWII. The main character, Tatiana is seventeen living in Leningrad Russia with her family just as Germany begins to invade in the east. Tatiana is living in a communal housing building and sharing a two room apartment with six family members. As the war begins in their country the family is scrambling to figure out what to do. Meanwhile Tatiana meets Alexander, a soldier in the Red Army. They quickly discover that they have an unbreakable connection however they also soon discover something that may (and should?) keep them apart forever.This is such a wonderful story. Those who love romance, love, and historical fiction will LOVE this book."
+17953,2,Entertaining introduction to phonics,"My children love their leappads and I love the fact that they are continuing to expose themselves to reading even when I'm not supervising them. These phonics kits contain cute stories that help reinforce the concepts that I try to introduce. I don't believe that this kit will teach them phonics on it's own but I love them anyways. As with all leappad books, I wish they were a little sturdier as the pages can get caught on the pen when littles are turning them, causing rips and tears."
+17954,1,this is pure heresy,"EVEN IF you reject hadith (which is an extremely silly notion to begin with) you must still accept Muhammad(peace be upon him) was the FINAL prophet -- its IN THE QURAN.this man is a crazy fool, and only someone dumber than a box of hair can think he brings the ""divine truth""i seek refuge in Allah from this heretical nonsense, and may Allah guide the people of this ideology back to the straight path.if you are a non muslim, DO NOT read anything by this man. instead, i recommend you go buy the noble quran by khan and hilaleealso, for those muslims who follow this khalifa man, go read authority and importance of the sunnah by jamal zarabozo (also available on amazon.com) he details over FORTY quranic ayat disproving this deviant ideology."
+17955,2,Fourth Edition Selected for Graduate Course,"I reviewed six different texts in preparing for a graduate level course in International Logistics at Baruch College before deciding on Stock and Lambert's Fourth Edition. This text combines currency, and breadth and depth in a way that is most relevant to the manner in which I wish to conduct the class. It provides a useful and usable reference to the students after the course is completed. Furthermore, the related web site has been very helpful in utilizing this text. I will complement the text for certain modules (i.e., E-Commerce, Culture Change, Logistics as a Career). One always needs, no matter who the author, to provide relevant current material from other sources. A big thanks goes to Stock and Lambert for this text."
+17956,1,Terribly made and pictures are too soft,"I am very disappointed with the Canon 20D. My first disappointment is with the sharpness of the pictures. I've tried all kinds of combinations for the auto and manual functions, but most pictures came out soft around the edges of the subjects. The Nikon D70 takes much better and sharper pictures. I was actually willing to put up with the softness because of the fast sutter speed, but then came the second disappointment. It's actually a shock more than anything else -when I changed the camera lens for the first time, the lens release button fell out and wouldn't stay in place unless I tape it down. This should never happen on a $1,400 camera! What a mistake in buying the Canon 20D! I'm returning the camera for a refund."
+17957,1,Cardboard Characters & Tedious Sentence Structure,"This book isn't bad. But from Amy Wilentz we expect much better. I was stuck by the writing itself: the short sentences, the lack of pitch, the frequent cliches. If this were a first time author, okay, I'd give her a big break. But as all the press releases show: she is an award-winning writer. Since I am going to Palestine next summer, am Palestinian-American on my mother's side of my family, I wanted to find my voice and my family's voice here. I did not. Perhaps, my intimate relation to the Palestinian-American community made the ""character flaws"" more obvious to me than it is or will be to other readers. But there are flaws here and serious ones."
+17958,1,Skate un sharpener,This is not good for even a minor touch up of the skate blades. Abrasive element is a cheap paper backed sanding disk used in a rotary tool. This does no sharpening just dulls your skates.
+17959,2,Lives up to its billing,"Great story, it took me until the last page to realize it is a love story. Borrowed the Kindle version through Amazon Prime and will read the other books when the month is over."
+17960,2,A piece of Art,The combination of the illustrations and the development of his story are hunting. The reader lives his childhood and coming of age. This book can be read many times to savor all the details of his illustrations.
+17961,1,Nothing more than noise,"Completely pathetic. Not only does Blink 182 have nothing to say, they would lack the musical skill to say it even if they did. A friend of mine once defended it - ""C'mon, it's punk music."" Is that an excuse for it being bad music? Their drummer seriously needs to learn to depart from the one rhythm that he appears to know - the constant 1-2-1-2-1-2 beat present in EVERY LAST ONE of their songs. The guitar, bass, and drums always blend together into a rhythmless noise - the first trick in the book to hide the fact that you don't know how to play your intruments. As they demonstrate in every song on the cd, they have nothing to sing about and their popularity rests entirely on their shock value and obnoxiousness, a sure-fire strategy for roping in my fellow teenage boys."
+17962,2,DON'T LOOK FOR A SHORTER ZESTER!,"For two days, I surfed the net looking for a short zester that would do what its supposed to do! Not being successful, I settled for this longer zester. I was pleasantly surprised by the fact that, in my opinion, this one is much safer--the longer surface provides easier grating by not having to keep my back-and-forth strokes to a minimum. The ridges are sharp--but then, that's what we use a zester for! To ensure others' safety, I have bought a knife sheath to store this tool (they're so cheap, it's worth the protection of this sharp object)."
+17963,2,Gourmet Solo Jazz Guitar,"Howard performs on both acoustic and electric archtops. What you hear on this record is the greatest living solo jazz guitarist. Joe Pass is gone, Bucky Pizzarelli is in his 80's. Howard, apparently alone, is carrying on the tradition of pick-style solo guitar a la Dick McDonough and Carl Kress. If you know who those two were you'll know this is like the finest wine. ""All too Soon"" is worth the price alone. Along with Bucky Pizzarelli's solo recordings, and everything Joe Pass ever touched, this is more precious than gold."
+17964,2,A Sweet EP By Jason Martin's Starflyer 59,"You really can't go wrong with this album! ""Fell In Love At 22"" is such a sad, beautiful song. The remainder of the songs are equally as good, especially ""Traffic Jam"". I'd have to say that is one of my favorite songs of all time; it's fourteen minutes long, has no words, and has the most CHILL value of any SF59 song. You can put on your headphones and close your eyes and drown in the music. No kidding, this is a great EP and is SO worth 6 bucks. 4 stars."
+17965,1,Beats Day of the Dead 2 at least,"Wow, is this some really horrible stuff! Acting, effects, plot. It all blows! to the reviewer who said this movie makes you think...yeah think about shutting the crap OFF! It isn't anything like a George A Romero zombie flick, ok so that's fine, but it neither scary nor thought provoking as the guy who gave it 5 stars. He knows the director and therefore is doing some SERIOUS brown nosing. TRUST ME, next to Day of the Dead 2:Contagium, this is the WORST zombie movie of all time. there is nothing redeemable about this. I give it 2 stars for 1 simple reason, the make out scenes in the beginning are hot, especially when he pulls off her panties. Other than this, man I have nothing but laughing to do at the idiotic minds responsible for this laughable, pathetic crap of a movie!"
+17966,1,not complete seasons,they are not complete seasons although very good but should be titled the best of rather than season one and two
+17967,2,Great stuffed chipmunk,"Aurora 8"" stuffed chipmunk. Hunted all over for this little guy which is not available in stores or museums.It is being used as a fun toy, for an older child, as a joke. This adult fed and increased our local chipmunk population while visiting this summer for three weeks. Great stocking stuffer at a good price."
+17968,1,do not buy from this Co,"I purchased the TPS from this seller it didn't get here for two week and when it did the part looked great once installed my car ran worse I had to take it and have a computer hooked up on it, and what comes up bad TPS there is a position bad so they are just sending out bad parts"
+17969,2,Atlantis,Enjoyed very much. It was part fiction and part fact which gives more real life meaning to actual facts. I also liked the hard cover which makes it a new addition to my library.
+17970,2,Context for Football Dreams,"As fact informs fiction, so did real life inform the story David Guy tells in FOOTBALL DREAMS. The Arnold Preparatory School is, in real life, Shady Side Academy; the campus Guy describes is the Senior School campus of Shady Side Academy, located in the Pittsburgh suburb of Fox Chapel. The neighborhoods to which Guy refers are in Pittsburgh's East End. Shady Side Academy merged with The Arnold School in 1940. The Arnold School was named to honor the renowned Arnold of The Rugby School (England). ""Tea Parties"" did occur at Shady Side Academy until the early 1970s. And many of the experiences of the protoganist in this story were experiences Guy and his classmates had when they attended Shady Side Academy in the 1960s. FOOTBALL DREAMS is a great story and should have a special appeal to anyone familiar with Pittsburgh, preparatory schooling, and coming of age in the early to mid 1960s."
+17971,2,Very good.,"My only request would be that it have a less awkward water tray. And, maybe, a humidity level readout and continuous humidity level target setting."
+17972,1,"The Pain, The Pain!","This book is mind-numbingly boring. Imagine a government bureaucrat listing out what was occurring in London category by category. This is worse.After getting about 2/3 of the way through chapter 1 I skipped and read 2 pages at random from the remaining chapters. She was consistent, consistently wooden insipid uninspired writing.My mom bought me this book... and I thought she loved me."

+17974,2,This thing is a beast!,"I have to admit I was nervous about putting my $1,500 TV on a wall and trusting a wall mount. Easy installation no issues and this thing just hugs my tv. I know it's safe!"
+17975,2,Great text book!,"I took a course last year in Polymer Chemistry and this text was the standard text book. It was an amazingly great reference book. This book mainly target on Polymerization synthesis and characterization. If you are interested in the mechanical properties of polymer, you should look for other one. But this is a must for all polymer chemists and material scientists who are interested in polymer processing."
+17976,1,Broken,"As numerous people of commented, they do not seem to be able to ship this without breaking it. Also, it's just not as cool as the toy you remember from your childhood. I wanted to love this, but can not even like it."
+17977,1,Absolutely unacceptable photo quality + Monotonous narrator's voice = One of the worst video ever.,"- I can't imagine that the producer and distributor of this DVD dare to release such a product. The photos and movie clips are so faded that they're hardly visible on my 32 "" Sony monitor. (It's not an HD TV. However, it displays sharp pictures from other movie DVDs). This is absolutely unacceptable.- Moreover, there is only one narrator. His voice was so monotonous that after hearing him for 30 minutes, I felt asleep!It's a shame on Mill Creek Entertainment for distributing this. I own another DVD from them called ""America's Serial Killers. Portraits in Evil"". It's much better.In short, this documentary is worth nothing. It's one of the worst video ever."
+17978,1,It's A Bust,"Warning, this game does not run on Windows XP or Windows 2000.I bought this yesterday for $2.99 at the local computer store. Took it home, and tried to install it. First, the setup program wanted to install DirectX 7 on my system, whereas I have DirectX 9 already.Next, I start the game, and it crashes almost instantly. Check the box... it says ""Windows 95/98"". Since I have XP, I assume I'm OK. Then I check the Interplay web site... Aha! This game does not work on Windows XP. Well, for $2.99, it was a small gamble on my part to buy it. It might be a good game, but I can't tell you for sure."
+17979,1,terrible tv do not buy vizio,"Same problem as everyone else only lasted 2 years before popping sound & shut down, we now have to warm the tv up for 5 minutes before cable box can be turned on or it pops and shuts off, also have vertical lines forming about 7 with different colors up and down through entire screen going through them. Save yourself the money and buy a quality tv....always remember you get what you pay for..........djmc2700@aol.com"
+17980,1,man this stuff is ok,"slipknot are a really ok band. There's nothing I enjoy more than locking myself in a dark cupboard, beating myself with a stick as I listen to Iowa. The problem with some people is that you are so narrow-minded that they refuse to dare to enlighten yourselves to the full range of sensations that is Slipknot. They rock so hard and bad that they make Bon Jovi look like your granny. Iowa kicks off at a sensational speed but unfortunately tends to lag towards the end. I think slipknot should stick to what they do best instead of lapsing into Gary Barlow territory."
+17981,1,17 month old still not interested,"I got these when my son was very young, thinking he'd play with them for a long time. In the beginning they were too big so he preferred stacking with smaller plastic blocks. He is now 16.5 months and still has no interest in them. I think a small child would be better off with a set of one or two to hang on to to crinkle. I would not buy this again or recommend."

+17986,2,1/2 of Kiss on one record.,"We know the true meaning of Kiss was Paul and Gene, and when Ace contributedd it rocked as well. But Paul Stanley's efforts have always been aimed more for the anthems (i.e.; ""Detroit Rock City""). And what shows more on this release is Paul's ability to not only write the standard Kiss classic, but also distribute radio-friendly hits of the 70's.Dated? No! Peter Criss is more dated as an effort, Paul Stanley's first solo album is actually heard on later releases (""Reason To Live"" is a good example"").If you decide that this is the best of all 4 solo albums by Kiss, then you obviously enjoy ""Detroit Rock City"" over, say, ""Christine Sixteen"" or ""Shout It Out Loud"". But overall, respect the fact that Paul is one major part of the Kiss legacy and remained true to his roots from as early as the '74 release all the way up to ""Psycho Circus"" and hopefully beyond."
+17987,2,Exactly what I needed,"When I first heard about this dvd, I will admit, I wasn't very excited. I watch the Biggest Loser from time to time and Jillian isn't my favorite of the trainers. I heard great things about the DVD though so I was intrigued.It's broken up into 3 different levels and each level is broken up into a 3-2-1 system: 3 mins strength, 2 mins cardio, 1 min abs. Just when you're getting used to one exercise she switches it up with something new. Jillian doesn't allow any rest, she wants you to get the most out of your workout, which is under 30 minutes by the way. As a single mom of a 2 year old, that's all I have time for.IT LIVES UP TO THE HYPE and i'll certainly be using it over and over again!"
+17988,2,Awesome insight!,This is a great book that explains just a touch of what eternal life is apart from Christ! Wonderful read for those who do not realize the absolute eternal life that hell will be.
+17989,2,simple commentary,"Although I am a relative new-commer to the Raga form, I highly recommend this CD for both the familiar and unfamiliar listener. The quality of the recording is fine; the quality of the music is exceptional."
+17990,1,it sure didn't work for us,"We purchased this printer last October and printed about 8 sheets thinking it was going to be a winner. It jammed on the next page and has been out of commission since. We can't find any hint of a jam or paper. We removed the cartridges and put them back in. We unplugged it and left it off to ""rest."" It simply won't work, won't scan, won't do anything. I have tried reading everything on their support site and nothing has been helpful.I am not as sophisticated as an IT person but I am used to computers and networking and basic troubleshooting. I should have returned it to the store where I purchased it but kept thinking surely whatever was wrong was simple to fix. I guess I was wrong. After giving up on the printing end I decided at least we had purchased a scanner - can't get it to work either.I think this is the last LexMark for me."
+17991,2,Hysterical!,"THE TALL GUY has been a favorite of mine for years. I take great pride in being a fan of this ""guilty pleasure"" film! I try to turn people onto it as often as possible.THE TALL GUY, first and foremost, is very British in its humor, which means there is irony, surrealism, and jokes that don't depend on insults (Americans *love* the insult-joke).THE TALL GUY has the funniest sex scene (Goldblum and Thompson) that I've ever seen. And as others have mentioned, the ELEPHANT! musical is hysterical. I cried the first time I saw the musical numbers ... it's that hilarious.At heart, THE TALL GUY is a sweet romance. But its British sensibilities and backstage humor (Goldblum's character is an underdog actor) lifts it above an average screwball comedy. And Emma Thompson is very charming as Nurse Kate! One forgets after all of her serious Shakespeare and Jane Austin roles that she is quite a comedienne.So enjoy THE TALL GUY! And remember: ""Somewhere up in heaven there's an angel with big ears."""
+17992,1,Outdated and boring jokes of the era.,This book will amuse only the golden aged veterans who can kick back on their toastmaster era of old jokes and very corny stories. Modern day story tellers will wince at this before dozing off to a fitful sleep.
+17993,1,Generic Rock - Not Punk Rock,"This band is horrible. All of you people praising this band are either a) under 16 years old or b) mindless morons. If it was real punk rock, it wouldn't be on mtv. Also, Blink 182 is basically a boy band."
+17994,1,WARNING FOR POTENTIAL BUYERS!!!,"This card reader is only advertised as a generic ""firewire"" reader. I received the product only to find that it utilizes the old firewire 400 technology, not firewire 800, the current industry standard, in so far as commercial television and film production are concerned from a media management standpoint. These inputs are no longer featured on current model macbooks. Beware before purchasing! Bought my 13 inch Macbook Pro earlier this year and this card reader is not compatible with it! Thanks for specifying Amazon! Enjoy my $40!"
+17995,2,Excellent despite the horrendous cover,"Oh, come on, the woman's face looks positively all sort of off! Anyways, that aside, this is a good book. It's well written, (only one minor continuity error) the dialogue's believeable. The characterization is good. Yes, the character of Ember Ridgeway is a mite frustrating at times, but heck, she's a spoiled little rich kid fer cryin' out loud. The plot's decent, though one romantic subplot is totally predictable."
+17996,1,Archy has lost his sparkle,"That inherrent something ""Archy"" about Archy McNally seems to have died with Sanders. While Lombardo seems quite capable, Archy seems to be turning into one of those eccentric bachelor men you just sort of feel sorry for. He used to be mischevious, now he seems more self-centered. I guess (correctly) at who did it (though not the means of delivering the poison); what character was a red herring; and what I thought were some very obvious connections between various agencies. All in all, an easy, pleasant read, but not anything like the earlier books."
+17997,1,"Heavy, hot, short cord, and how do you get the blade out?","I bought this saw today, used it once (""hot and heavy,"" not in a good way) and...now the blade won't come out (yes, the blade lock is off). I shall return it tomorrow!"
+17998,2,The Body Electric,"This is an amazing book. It's required reading. After watching a friends severed fingertip grow back (No it wasn't sewn on, it literally grew back with nail and all), this book goes right along with what I've seen with my own eyes."
+17999,2,Loved it!,"There were some very good best practices in this book that I immediately adopted. I'm sure most people who would be interested in this book (experienced to advanced developers) have heard many of the best practice concepts in this book before from various sources, however I've yet to see someone develop a method to handling these ideas.It was a shorter book than I was expecting (yes, that's my goof for not noticing the page count when I purchased it) however I'm glad that I didn't notice that fact before purchasing otherwise I might have overlooked it as more of a reference book rather than a teaching book. I was very happy with the book and would recommend it to anyone interested in some solid best practices for PHP security."
+18000,2,"Super affordable, less stick than hoped for","They get the job done for sure, but they do not have much re-stick power, and lose their stick after a while compared to other brands. Might not be an issue for some people, but I have a sticky system on my desk, so when they don't stick well it's bothersome.4 stars because it's super affordable, and you normally get what you pay for."
+18001,2,Love the Adventure,"I really love an adventure and this movie was entertaining. The plot may have been a bit weak but the visuals, special effects, and the actors were great."
+18002,2,inexpensive and easy to use,"had to replace the home office version on my laptop and thiswas the a great investment. no problems loaded easily, runsgreat."
+18003,2,He's Wonderful,"I have several of Michael's cds. I grew up listening to my moms records,Sinatra, Joe Williams, Nancy Wilson, Nina Simone, and I remember one ofmy favorite's by Nancy Wilson was Call Me Irresponsible. My favorite onthis cd is Dream, it is so pretty, I just love it. The whole cd is great.Michael's music reminds me of love and romance, and that is a good thing!"
+18004,2,Excellent book for beginners,"To people who are entering the profession of consumer lending, this is an excellent primer. It gives a 360 degree view of the business from acquisition and management of accounts to collections, recoveries and profitability analysis. While it doesn't cover any one topic in great depth, it is an ideal book for people starting off in this exciting business. I wish David Lawrence would write many more books. He has the art of explaining concepts in a clear manner. I really enjoyed this book."
+18005,2,BIC Speakers A+++++++++++,"Consumer Reports had this speaker as a best buy a few years ago. We bought these because of their excellent review and from feedback from Amazon customers. A friends five hundred dollar Klipsch speakers can't touch these. As a matter of fact the worst performer in the under 500 dollar range was the Klipsch in the CR ratings. Powered by an old Sansui 8080, 85 watts power these speakers jam at only a quarter volumn! You will not be disappointed by buying these speakers. For a little over a hundred bucks a pair, nothing else comes close. Don't be fooled by their small size because these will rock the house."
+18006,2,Night of the Twisters,"I loved the book. It'll grab your attention so much that you'll never want to stop reading. I liked it so much I wish there was a Night of the Twisters 2! This book is most certainty going to be on my top ten best books for the year. The book is about Dan, Arthur, and Ryan being alone at Dan and Ryan's house wile a tornado decides to visit Dan's house! Will they survive the tornado? Will their house? Did their families live? If the kids survive will they reunite with their families? Find out in this book."

+18008,2,Legal dividers,"I ordered these and a binder. The holes were not where I needed them so I used a hand punch ... They work fine, it is very hard to find legal sized products where I live, so I'm glad I found these online."
+18009,1,20% lighter :),"This pair of jeans weighs only 22oz in W31-L34 more than 20% lighter than the one I bought two years ago in a retail store (28oz). I wonder whether Levi's is selling a different product through online channels or whether they have decreased the quality of the material for all 501s. 501 is sold as 501 ""original"", unfortunate that it is not true any more. Levi's, please bring our 501 Original back."
+18010,2,best ever indian cookbook,This book is exactly what I was looking for. Very good shape and easy to read recipes. Very informative. Thanks.
+18011,1,There must be better books,"I was looking for a book that covered both Disney World and Universal. I visited DW in 1996 and wanted information about new stuff. I picked up the book at a Brick and Morder B&N and thought it seemed like the best choice.It's not bad for a 1st time vister. But there are so many holes in the information. I used the web links that were mention in the first chapter like http://www.wdwinfo.com/ which has more info then the book.They just say ""Disney will have a 15 month Millenium Celiberation"" no more info about it! That's what I wanted to know. I'm on Amazon today to order a better Disney World book. A good update and a better editor would make this an awsome buy. Big book for under $13, but no pictures like the offical guide and not a lot of inside information. Plus they didn't update for the millenium celibration. Or Islands of adventure in Universal. Just said there there was going to be one."
+18012,1,Fake Flavoring,"The flavoring of this coffee is very ""fake"" - it's ok if you tend to like the artificially-flavored syrups used in coffee, or if you like the typical flavored coffees. It's not for me - I want a subtle real flavor and a strong coffee. This one doesn't do it. Fool's pumpkin spice is a better bet for a decaf pumpkin spice."
+18013,1,A Waste of Money,"Some other reviewers called this book repetitive. They were 100% correct. I could not believe how many times the same phrases were used. The book should have been titled ""How To Conduct Interviews That Might Possibly, Sort Of, In a Way, Isolate a Person That Might Just Be a Psychopath"". Talk about padding, the Kindle version ended at 78%! The balance was references, notes, dictionary, bibliography etc. What a waste of money! This is the first book in years that I had to force myself to finish."
+18014,2,Super harp,"Great harp. If you are a pro or amateur, this harp is for you. I have four and plan to buy more. I had difficulty learning to bend and with these you can bend easily on the draw and blow notes. Mine all had to be broken in a bit but heartily recommend them.Larry"
+18015,2,Happy with fit and sound,"I'm pretty happy with the headphones, as many others have written before me. Fit is very nice, the rubber is nice and soft and do not come off at all. Perfect compliment to my Sony S-Series MP3 player."
+18016,1,A PURE WASTE OF YOUR TIME AND MONEY!,"Just like her other books on this subject, Ms. Halsell, spews out one cleverly spun half-truth after another, only revealing her seething inner hatred for both Israel and the Christian right. This is fodder for fools only! Don't bother wasting your time or money on this woman's barrage of hate."

+18018,2,Disco lives!!!!!,"Wow, what a great DVD! All the singers were awesome and sound incredilbe. I saw this program on PBS and had to have it. I was thrilled with the whole DVD. Must have if you like or grew up in the Disco era, brings back a lot of memories of a better, funner time in our lives."
+18019,2,Great Book,This book is really good. It gives you an insiders look of a girl with bulimia. I thought it was very interesting and thought provoking. I definatley recommend it!
+18020,1,Poor quality publisher - find a different version!,"If you want to read this book, I'd suggest finding a different publisher/version. The publisher clearly makes really poor quality books - and doesn't proof. I saw about one typo per page - pretty pathetic. For a book priced so high, the quality should be MUCH better - a rip-off."
+18021,1,NOT THE ORIGIONAL SOUNDTRACK,"This isn't the same as the origional, which is very good.

+18022,1,"Whatever happened to Springsteen the ""artist""?","The actual recording of this album is absolutely atrocious.If you're looking for a real 9/11/01 album, look no further than Bob Dylan's 'Love and Theft'. 'Love and Theft' was released on Tuesday, 9/11/01. Dylan said more about 9/11 before 9/11 than Springsteen could say post 9/11; who's the genius here? Dylan's 'Love and Theft' recording is decent; however, the music and underlying message and insight is much stronger.Springsteen failed miserably on both accounts. I sense this album was quickly rushed to market to make a quick buck and get lots of radio air time.Whatever happened to Springsteen the ""artist""? Did commercial success destroy this guy or what?The fact that this album was nominated for 'Album of the Year' reminds us all of how musically-shallow, narrow-minded, and clueless the Grammy Awards are today."

+18025,1,A short advice from a big fan of Video Kids,First I heard Video Kids in the USSR in 1985. Anyone who will listen to this CD-single will never understand Video Kids.I have a full album on CD and it's simply amazing.If you are big fan of European 80's and you know what that music is all about you won't like this CD-single.You need the original album.
+18026,2,Worth It's Weight in Platinum,"Real quick. I must admit that I recently just bought this album about two days ago, and all I can say is: ""Rapp music may be dead, but hip-hop lives forever."" I listen to a lot of underground and unknowns in the industry, and by far, this is one of the tightest albums of 2006. No diss at all to my brother Donwill, but if you want to hear those fire lyrics, you all better ask somebody about Von Pea. I first heard him on the Nicolay Mixtape (1st Date), but I didn't know that he was in a group. Now, I want everything that got this brother on it. I haven't stopped listening to this album since I bought it. Buy it. Trust me, it's worth every penny. It's a shame that this is another tight group that will probably sit on the shelf because people want to listen to garbage and keep up with who's going to sell more albums between 50 cent and Kanye. Donwill and Von Pea will serve all these suckas. Peace."
+18027,1,Sequel Does not Provide Justice to Original,"As someone who loves Pride and Prejudice and has read it more times than should be allowed, I did not enjoy this sequel at all. The character descriptions and actions deviated immensely from the original author's. The storyline was borderline pornography, and the only thing the newly married couple seems to do is engage in sexual activities. In addition, the author creates history for Mr. Darcy and Bingely that discredits both their original characters. I do not believe that Jane Austen intended for this beloved classic to be continued. Let's hope not to many more are sequelized."
+18028,1,Glad i read the review,"I was looking for the original ""36th Chamber of shaolin"" i saw 15 years ago. I am glad to find that this one is not the one i was looking for."
+18029,1,Not Impressed,"The gore was slightly impressive, however the story was not. The worst was the line from the guy who finds Poe on the park bench. ""Is there someone I can call for you?"" The telephone wasn't available to the public until 1891, several decades after Poe died. My suspension of disbelief failed me. Also, Cusack's acting as himself, as he always does, wasn't all that interesting either. I've seen much better out of the 70's horror movie dollar bin than this thing."
+18030,2,uncanny,"like the way he fiqures out the truth, lots of action. always getting himself in danergous situations. Great character, well written"
+18031,2,missing song,"there was a song that I loved but it isn't on the soundtrack. It's played where the main characters are on a speed boat looking at all the neighbors. The song sounded like it was by Beck but it's not. Someone help, it's killing me!"
+18032,1,Too clever and complex for its own good,"The Doctor takes Jo and Mike Yates for a spin in the TARDIS, aiming for the planet Karfel (which the Doctor and Jo had visited, according to the story 'Timelash') but, given how awful the other story set on Karfel was, end up instead on the planet Nooma. I'm not sure, though, that this destination is any better.This story is full of strange alien races and serious bodily transformations, especially for one of the regulars. And with any such transformations, the return to normal afterwards is a difficult thing to believe.The society of Nooma also causes me some difficulty. I have a problem with so many intelligent races evolving side by side, even with the ""explanation"" that is offered as part of the book's resolution.Something simpler would have been better. Getting too complex just leads to trouble."
+18033,1,Oldsmobile 4-4-2 and W-Machine: Restoration Guide,"This book is not a restoration guide, it's more of a highlights book with pictures. More effort could have been put into this book with more detail."
+18034,2,Works Great,The Satachi 3 in 1 Car Kit for Ipod is great. It works good. We have one for each of our vehicles as well as our boat.
+18035,1,Company was not helpful,I asked this the company for assistance with a part that was missing from the product and they told me the product did not have that part. A friend of mine that i sent this product to found it online with the part.
+18036,2,excellent study,"I have been involved in a study of the Book of Romans in the past, but it was a very surface study. This study has so many examples that are relevant to today, and it makes one want to keep involved and finish each lesson. Our whole study group has been very impressed with this book, and we will most likely use more of the ""Following God Through the Bible"" studies in the future."
+18037,1,Half Acoustic other Half No Effort Expended,"A quick cash grab show. There is no energy or enthusiam in this what so ever. Don of course can not hit the high notes anymore, if he ever could in the first place (fix in the mix with pro-tools). George cannot play the solos anymore, if he ever really played them on the albums in the first place (special guest - Mike Slammer?). Segments are from 1995, 1999, and 2000 so you can see the progress of Don's hillarious wigs. Four of the songs starting with Unchain the Night and the garbage from the Shadow life are acoustic. Oh boy, a bonus track...Dream Warriors...acoustic! I know Don was about 60 when this show filmed, but how did rocken with Dokken go from Tooth and Nail to being boring old folk artists. We want the kick ass rockin with Dokken hair metal band, not the Peter Paul and Mary style Dokken. Dokken is not an acouistic band. Dokken used to rhyme with Rockin. Here it does not come anywhere even close to rockin."
+18038,2,Great Purchase for Value,The travel system is excellent. i purchased it as a gift. it arrived really fast. the quality is excellent . i would really recommend this product.
+18039,2,Rope bone - as advertised,My dog enjoys this rope bone though I knew it would be a bit large for him. He'll gnaw on the ends and carry it around by the middle. It washed well in the machine too.
+18040,1,Zone-Big Ball Workout,"Too easy! I could have probably gotten a better workout by tapping my foot. There are so many great exercises to do on the ball, but this video doesn't have any of them."
+18041,1,Probably would not have bought it in a store,"The case is inexpensive enough and serves its purpose but the zipper is poorly designed. It doesn't open far enough to allow you to open the case flat on a table. I'd say it opens about 140 degrees before it's stressing the zipper at the end of its travel. I probably would not have bought this case if I had examined it in a store, but for under $30 I wasn't going to bother returning it to the on-line vendor."
+18042,2,Does what it promises!,"I used it with 3 thick and juicy strips of bacon.. it took 2 minutes and 30 seconds. Bacon is crunchy, clean-up easy.. I love this thing."
+18043,1,"Don't waste your time, just read the back.",I did not like the book. First let me start off by saying pages where missing. Not from being torn but they just weren't in the book. Oh and if your like me and like to read the back of the book to find out what the story is about. Don't do it. He tells the whole story on the back. I thought the book was about the mother but then it ends up being about her kids who we don't meet until the end of the book. Just crazy. It reads as if the author just made the story along as he was typing and then put it up for sale without a proof-reader. Very very predictable.
+18044,2,He loved it!,"My dad asked for a red U.S.M.C. hoodie, because he couldn't find one by himself. so i clicked away a few places and it was on it's way to my door!"
+18045,2,The Honk and Holler Opening Soon,"The only thing I hated about this book is that it ended. Just like ""Where The Heart is"", Billie Letts makes you fall in love with her characters. You root for them, you cry with them and you laugh with them. Don't miss this book, if you loved ""Heart."" Billie Letts please hurry with your next book, I am a very eager fan!"
+18046,1,not surdy,"not sturdy at all- was hoping to use as my utensils on a sailboat to save space, but no way could you cook or stir anything heavier than maybe 1 egg."
+18047,2,Yum Yum Yum,"I love this stuff! I have a sensitivity to honey (and it's a little strong tasting anyway). The agave nectar has the consistency of honey, so it can be substituted 1:1 in recipes. I use it most in smoothies and on pancakes instead of syrup (the glycemic index is lower), but I'm starting to bake with it a bit. Still trying to figure out how to substitute it for white sugar, but I'm getting there. One of my friends and I usually split a case...makes it a lot less expensive than buying a bottle at a time at the health food store."
+18048,2,Works exactly as described.,"Love this thing. Already had an iPhone 4 and a pair of Nike shoes but I needed some motivation to run. I didn't want to buy Nike's expensive ""plus"" shoes so this thing allowed me to buy the nike plus pedometer and use it with my other running shoes. Awesome for people in my situation and people who prefer other shoes, like Oasics.Overall, great if you're interested in Nike Plus at a lower overall cost."
+18049,1,soooo disappointing,"Cool effects do not a cool movie make! A very thinly threaded plot of cobbled together scenes that might have developed into something engaging if not treated so superficially. The 'fairy forest and the great white stag'? How about an inkling of how this helps Snow White understand her destiny and her choices? Awakened by True Love's first kiss? There is no emotional connection evident between SW and the Huntsman or SW and William or anyone else that would make you think she'd ever be revived. Really, really glad I didn't pay to see this in a theater."
+18050,2,Very Good Guide,"I found this to be a very good guide on the subject of lighting and exposure for location photography. The sections on lighting were certainly the highlight of this book. The author goes into great detail to explain the concepts of light modification and subtracting light which is rarely discussed in other books. The photos are well done and lit properly. My only negative was that some of the poses looked a little forced, which is why I rated the book 4 stars and not 5. Overall, it is a very good book."
+18051,2,This book is actually ' Present of the Past',This is my first book by Elizabeth Adler and I love it.It is a gripping story full of strong emotions. I wonder why it has not been spotted by any film producer to make into a movie. I'm sure your readers would enjoy it.
+18052,2,Pumice/Forest,"Great material. Fits are bigger. I'm 5'11'' and 200 pounds. I normally wear a large, but the X-large does the trick. Love the look and material. Made a few runs in it and does a great job of wicking away moisture. I will be ordering more in different colors."
+18053,1,Where's my merchandise?,"I will never buy from this company again. I didn't receive my merchandise on time. I contacted them atleaset 4 times and they never responded. I paid by paypal, so they got their money but I never received my merchandise or heard from them. Buyers Beware!!"
+18054,1,Monitor does not work,"I purchased this item because of the high ratings, but once I received it, I realized the monitor did not work. We have done everything we know to do to make it work, read the manuals, etc.. and it still will not work. I paid over $50 to have it shipped 2 day (it was shipped extremely FAST and I received it the very next day), so that is why I hate to have to pay shipping to send it back. The lyrics do show up on a tv, it's just disappointing for the monitor on the actual machine to not work. This also means the camera on the system doesn't work.As far as the sound, the cordless microphone does not work and when you sing into the other microphone, the sound in one of the speakers cuts completely out. NOT what I expected for a total of over $277.00."
+18055,2,Classic,Classic story of life and love. A bit difficult to read in the old English but having seen the movie made it more understandable.
+18056,2,Keeps them entertained!,"This video kept my one baby entertained from about 6mos old until 3yrs old and is now keeping my 2nd child who is now one years old entertained. It is one of my lengthiest videos and gives parents some quiet time. As far as it being very educational for this age group....my kids grasped the numbers and letters from other dvds as opposed to this one...but it is creative, entertaining, and engaging. Def worth it being in your dvd collection but if you're looking at this dvd as one that will actually teach, it may be a dissapointment and for that...I will give it 4stars."
+18057,1,Was not HD Quality,I believe I am entitled to a credit - this movie was not HD Quality and the streaming was poor
+18058,1,BLECH!,"I heard ""Tonight and the Rest of My Life"" on the radio, and I thought it was a decent song. So, on a whim, I bought the cd. After listening to about 2 songs, I was ready to chuck this cd into the trash can. All of the songs sound the same, and it sounds a lot like the same old pop you hear, over and over, on the radio. This cd was utterly undistinguishable, save yourself $20 and buy the Dido cd instead."
+18059,1,Left me cold,"The Snows of Kilimanjaro has little to do with snow or Mount Kilimanjaro or Africa. The first short story serves as a pretext. An author and journalist is dying, and he regrets he didn't write more recollections of his early past. This is followed by fifteen or so tableaux of Michigan rural life (mostly). The pieces are dry and descriptive. They serve to show, not to explain, and barely follow any plots. Each is preceded by an unrelated journalistic snippet: on the 1920s evacuation of Smyrna, on bullfighting, on WWI Italy. This is self-referential, of course. The Snows of Kilimanjaro is at the border between short-story writing and journalism. This fits Hemingway's style. But whether it is interesting is another matter. I much preferred his novels, even if they too are fictionalised reporting, especially A Farwell To Arms and For Whom The Bell Tolls."
+18060,2,love written in,"I really enjoyed this book. It is a simple, easy read about love in its many forms, shapes and sizes. The author had some fantastic lines about loving and living that I had to mark as favorite quotes.There is nothing deep to discuss about this book, it is just a sweet book with well defined characters that you really connect too. I'm glad her next book is out and that the characters continue in that story."
+18061,1,Very Hard!,This game is freakin' hard. I mean I'm nine years old and I can't even beat the first level!! Don't buy this game!!
+18062,2,The Gold Monkey is still golden,"I remember when this was on t.v. and how disappointed I was when it was taken off. It certainly was not Emmy winning, but just good solid entertainment. As a period piece placed just before WW2 it still holds up well for viewing.Of course it is a comedy/adventure series and must be viewed with tongue in cheek. The acting is well done and the production values are good. The 6 disc set contains the pilot and all of the episodes. If you want some light entertainment with a little adventure or misadventure as it may be this would be a good choice."
+18063,1,Do not order this item if you want what is described,They shipped the Phosphorescent version of this compass even though they list the Tritum version here and will keep your shipping charges and make you pay the return freight. The vendor has been notified several weeks ago and has not corrected the error. Avoid this item and find a better vendor.
+18064,1,Wrong in too many ways,"Wish I had bought something else. This fan started making a lot of noise about the 2nd month, and has gone downhill ever since. The fan is loose in it's housing, so vibrates very loudly for a few minutes when first start it up, but then it gets quiet. Cools pretty well when going, but loud then too. Pathetically weak stand broke off yesterday, and never was trustworthy. Bump the laptop just a bit & it falls. The ""grip"" on top only holds my laptop so-so...it slides down sometimes. They just need to tweak the design: make the stand thicker plastic, have it lock into usable place, tighten up the fan housing (made in China no doubt), and make the grip a little gripier. It is lightweight, which is good, but too bulky to travel with imo. It's just been a pain in the rear almost every day since I've bought it."
+18065,2,It works,"Not much to say about this item it is what it is. I ordered it, and it does what it should, it workes well. I will say i could not buy this item in a store in the area i live in."
+18066,2,Like it.,"Its easy to use and its nice that only one curtain is needed. However, since this has to rest inside the tub, the outside of the tub is exposed to the bathroom and sometimes, I don't want it to be."
+18067,1,WARNING!! Don't be fooled! This isn't quiet!!,"Ok I just got this loud little fan, the install was easy and that was it! I should have listened what others have said about the noise level.I was expecting a lot about the noise because in the advert, it says bloody 'whisper quiet'!!!!!!!!!! for mother of airs. Seriously, who whispers like this loud? I can't even hear my own voice when I turn on the full speed.It has 2 speed control buttons, low speed is just acceptable if you place it close to you but then the noise level is not quiet at all. And you don't even wanna touch the button of high speed or I just wanna call it Tsunami. It's so bloody loud whisper that if my window was opened, my neighbours can hear that i turned on the fan.Pleeeeeease consider this carefully when you buy and don't be fooled by the word 'Whisper Quiet'. Cuz that whisper could make you a deaf."
+18068,1,The Price.....,"It's not so much that I dislike the thing itself more than that I simply don't feel like spending the current price of 80 U.S. Dollars on it... I would imagine that it had a limited retail, unlike it's DVD counterpart, which goes for 15 dollars."
+18069,2,Great book....BUT.......,Love the book....HOWEVER the book ends around 85%. Then it gives you the first chapter of book 2 and 3. DO NOT read the first chapter of book 3 b/c it will ruin the ending of book 2. Well not totally but you can figure out what happens before reading book 2. It is a great series and recommend.
+18070,1,The Disembodied Voice of Stanley Kubrick Does Not Approve,"These DVDs are the reason I bought a DVD player. Each film in this collection (with the possible exception of Lolita) is a masterpiece. Imagine my disappointment when I discovered the lack of care and effort that went into these DVDs. The transfers are poor and unrestored, the audio is plain old vanilla stereo, a few films are pan-and-scanned, and not a single special feature of note to be found. This could have been a 4-year film school in a box. It isn't anywhere close."
+18071,1,Falls apart too easily and hard to clean,"The pieces do not have anyway to lock themselves together. This creates problems every time in the chopping process since the bowl separates from the chopper. When the food is finally chopped and you want to transfer it to the recipe, the base promptly falls off and spills the finely chopped ingredients over your work surface. It offended me and I chastised it severely. It is not among the living now and will sin no more."
+18072,1,cd pens,"These Memorex CD marking pens work, but I prefer a finer point, these medium point pens are harder to use."
+18073,1,Not good,"It is not good product. Original one is amazing but this one smells bad, like fake one. Do not buy it here. Go to the store"
+18074,1,Flimsy,"Ordering a new one because, like the other reviewer, my pot fell in the sink and the plastic lip shattered. Cheap in construction but not in price."
+18075,2,"Fantastic, But Note: Proper Assembly is Required!","This swing is fantastic -- our newborn is lights-out at the moment, giving dad a few minutes to write this review. We have a Fisher Price vibrating bouncer gadget in the same motif that works well if you can remain immediately aside it and keep it moving for him; I'm really pleased that the swing takes care of itself. The lights and music will ensure this product is equally appreciated in the months to come!For all the negative reviews about babies sitting too upright, staring out (not up at the lights), and slumping over and potentially getting their head stuck between the frame and chair arms, it looks like this could only happen if you've installed the back support frame backwards...something that they've fixed in this model with a design that prevents mis-assembly. When attached correctly, the chair itself sits at a comfortable 130 degrees (vice darn near 90 degrees if the back support is reversed).Doing business in peace and quiet from the home!"
+18076,2,Great fantasy reading- but for the devoted only!,"This book magically recounts the adventures of a real-life s/m practitioner. Each page is filled with irresistable scenes. Like ""The Story of O,"" this book is great entertainment and fodder for the imagination. But unlike ""The Story of O,"" ""Ties that Bind"" is more realistic. The characters lived out sexual fantasies from time to time, but did not live in a s/m utopia not possible on earth. Readers be warned: this book is not for those who do not appreciate the special entity that is s/m."
+18077,1,"Lies all around, not happy at all","I bought this looking for Old Dominion brand peanut brittle. This is not Old Dominion brand, nor was it made by Old Dominion. The brittle we received was made by SweetGourmet.com, and the other reviews are right, there are very few peanuts in this product and something just tastes slightly off. It's technically edible and it's technically peanut brittle, so I guess I won't worry about returning it, but I don't like being misled.Product is a bag of brittle pieces shipped inside a box, someone mentioned it arriving smashed up, well honestly, I think it was supposed to arrive somewhat smashed up and not as a solid sheet which is what I think that reviewer and I were both wanting."
+18078,2,Nice release,I bought this for my son last year and it has held up well. He uses it all the time and it has performed as expected. It was a great price and I would definitely buy another one.
+18079,1,So what's new?,"I found it boring and depressing. Politics as usual. This is nothing new ya know.The people who have governed this country (heck!, the world) from the getgo have all been like this. It was just kept under wraps better. Too many leakers, climbers and journalists these days."
+18080,1,Zojirushi Coffee Maker,"I purchased this coffee maker about 3 weeks ago - I am sending it back today. There have been problems with water leaking from whoknowswhere, the filters are too big, entire unit is flimsy and cheap and today there was coffee all over the floor and kitchen counter.... the carafe is difficult to open and close, the little top plastic lid is annoying and I keep inadvertently changing the clock. The only positive thing I can say about this coffee maker is that it is fairly quiet when brewing but on the whole it is a mess."
+18081,2,"Good Item, Fast Shipping.","What can i say. It's micro-'soft' They try to get you any way they can. I bought this for my son, i figured getting the year membership is a better deal. Shipping was fast, received item two days later..awesome. thanks amazon."
+18082,2,Brave Companions,I'm partial to all of McCullough's books. He is one of America's greatest social historians. I absolutely enjoyed this particular book. I would recommend it very highly!
+18083,2,A Good Book,"I saw the movie which prompted me to read the book. As always to book was much more detailed. The language was obsene at times, but the author gave a realistic account of his life."
+18084,2,Tiny,"Toy looks great (paint and posture is spot on). The only problem I had, and this is my fault, is that the size is very small compared to the others in our collection. Check out the sizes before you start buying these when they are on sale. I clicked 3 different ones that were on sale, and I didn't bother to check that they were in the same size category, so this one looks little silly next to the big trex and spinosauraus."
+18085,2,Season 1,I wish there were more seasons than four. I just wanted to keep watching them all in a row. I am so glad to have this in my movie/ series collection. I highly recommend this to anyone who wants to watch some good clean fun.
+18086,2,What book of Lauraine Snelling won't you like?,I have almost read all of her books. This book was the second in a 3 book series and it was just wonderful. I love the storyline and had a hard time putting it down wondering what was going to happen next. Lost many hours of sleep reading this book but well worth it!
+18087,1,Still a sleaze bag,This is Mickey Rourke's typical sleaze bag role. The film isn't even accomplished enough to be considered soft porn. Zalman King should have abandoned his efforts in mainstream filmmaking and gone straight into the adult industry. He probably would have had more fun and would have saved us from such complete crap.
+18088,1,HORRIBLE,this item was horrible. i plugged it in and it was all fuzzy and the music was so low no matter how loud i turned the volume up. i hope the company backs their product and does a full return. DO NOT BUY
+18089,2,"Great stuff, great price",This product is great. I add it to baked goods and oatmeal. Buying by the case is a great deal and I find I use it more frequently.
+18090,1,Don't Upgrade to 2005,"If Intuit doesn't allow us to use our existing QIF files to migrate to the newest version and allows only limited functionality in downloading online transactions, then why bother to EVER upgrade!!!I'm going with the majority here, Quicken 2005 sucks. Only one guy (probably Intuit employee) wrote something positive. It's time these companies start LISTENING to customers - not DIRECTING them!I'm not impressed with Intuit. I'm boycotting all of their products."
+18091,1,"How I Spent My Summer Vacation, Looking for Pirate Women...","That should have been the title of the book. I was really disappointed. There was very little about Grace O'Mally, and more about what she did on her vacation.I really didn't care why she changed her name or where she stayed or that she got sick and couldn't go row-boating. I just wanted to know about women's roles at sea, which she did cover a bit, but she could have done in a 100 page paperback instead."
+18092,2,Just for dinner and breakfast and lunch,"This machine is so easy to use that there is no excuse for not having fresh bread whenever you want it. Some tips: do not use packets of yeast. As author Kay Rentschler pointed out in a popular illustrated cooking magazine, the amount of yeast per packet can vary greatly. Buy yeast in bulk and measure it as needed for more consistent results. Also, do check the dough after 4 minutes of kneeding and adjust with a teaspoon of flour or water if needed. (King Arthur's web site is a good resource of what the kneeded bread should look like.) And resist the temptation to eat the bread right away. Let it rest for 20 minutes."
+18093,1,too much for a disco light,"the leds would only display as a group indicating the peak voltage rather than display only the measured volt, the ground probe should be a clip rather than a pin probe. Too expensive for its function."
+18094,2,Awesome Movie,this was the best tour dvd i have ever seen. i wish i could of been there. it looked like a lot of fun. weird al is so awesome and he is hillarious. this movie was great. if you have not seen this movie then i recommend you do
+18095,2,Fast Service and a Fast Love for this CD,"For Joni Mitchell fans, do I have to even nod in the affirmative that this is an Essential addition to the studoo albums? Putting it simply: some of the live versions are, believe it or not, stronger than the well known versions: cases in point: CACTUS TREE, ALL I WANT, COLD BLUE STEEL AND SWEET FIRE; on and on.Her voice has dropped maybe a half octave - experts correct me if I'm wrong - so something like COLD BLUE STEEL... and CASE OF YOU are really.....steamy. Not to mention that the rock and roll road, by the mid-70s, only strengthened her singing, dynamic range and resonant tremolo, more than intact.Would have loved a few more in-concert photos but...I'm still recovering from the ""new"" CACTUS TREE. From that JM album nobody talks about. Well, hopefully they did/do after auditioning this set.Joni!!!!!"
+18096,2,Finished feeling empty...,"Ring of Red is an incredible strategy game by Konami (makers of everything from Contra on the NES to Metal Gear Solid 2 for the PS2.) This game will take well over 30-40 hours to play for you marathon gamers. I was rather unhappy with the ending for it ended abruptly. I hope Ring of Red II will come out soon to tie up the loose ends in this one. A couple things that would benefit this game would be some sort of voice dialouge, the ability to forward through the intermissions quicker, and more special abilities. All in all this was a fun game to play and an excellent strategy for the PS2."
+18097,2,A Wanted Man,"The protagonist Harry Raines sees Col. Edward Baker the man that he is to protect killed. Of course Harry is found with the body and he becomes a wanted man by the North. The Confederates also want Harry. He has no choice but to solve this murder. I found the first of the book rather slow but I liked the mystery intrigue of Kilian's books. He also uses a little humor to entertain us. By Ruth Thompson the author of ""The Bluegrass Dream"""
+18098,2,Kinda Stillmatic,"Not quite Illmatic, but ""Stillmatic"" is a good album with more creativity than the last couple of albums. The Jay Z comeback, ""Ether"" killed the beef which totally exposes Jigga even though hova tried that 2pac ""I'm messing with your BM"" formula. That's played out, Jigga. Nas conitues to spit words of war with a song that disses Cormega, Nature, and Prodigy ""Destroy and Rebuild."" The dude even admits his ""Words to enemies are poison"" in the song ""What Goes Around,"" which is one of my favorite songs in this album. ""Rewind"" is a very creative song. It starts with the ending and goes backwards to the beginning of the story; pretty tight. ""Got Yourself A Gun"" and ""My Country"" are good also. I just wish there were less lyrics trying to prove he's the man and just spit and let the listeners judge. ""Braveheart Party"" and ""The Flyest"" -in my opinion- are the only donwside to this album. Can't deny Nas and his talent. Go get this album and get the other four."
+18099,2,NICE,"this product is very nice, but it caries a lot of weight and it can be a little loose, but still love it, it keeps the cereal crunchy though , so nothing to worry about"
+18100,2,young and dumb,"I tought it was a good read considering the author was 16 she she wrote it, she done a good job. The story was about Amian who was 17 at the time and made alot of bad decisions with her life. She meets a cat name Kanye who falls love at first sight with her which seemed it a bit of a fairy tale to me and then gets down for him just like that. I wanted to know how she ended up and that kind of left me hanging at the end other than that I liked it."
+18101,1,Christian - Hesitate,"Well, I only read 4 chapters and was shortly made aware it was not a book for me. Yes she is adamantly against the ""feminist"" of today, and the book is written in a very factual, hard,point blank way. Not that that necessarily is bad, but one doesn't need to be harsh and graphic to get a point across. It is good factual information, but to many specifics. Yes we need to know the truth, but to what extent? This will be a book liked by many and disliked by some. For women who are very in the firing lines against the feminist movement,etc. this will be right up their alley. For those who want encouragement that they are not ""crazy"" as the world would say, this is probably not the book for them."
+18102,2,spiritual ascent for Stockhausen,"Stockhausen explains in the liner notes that composing this piece was part of a very spiritually moving experience for him in Aztec ruins. He liked looking at repeating forms ruins that were slightly out of phase, & for me, this music is alternately the slow grass, the carved stones, & the clean air. This whole vocal piece moves fluidly with a basic structure of repetition & electronic innovation. The music, too, is so unique! Stockhausen really is an incredibly, amazingly creative person, a great composer. This piece, with its own personal sense of coherence, is different from much other work of his."
+18103,1,Not well researched,There doesn't seem to be any voice to the author. This book is like a college term paper on DOGME--I give it a C. The book reads like a collection of magazine articles or an unauthorized biography. We have seen most of this material covered in indie filmmaker magazines countless times before. Dogme is a niche component of a larger digital film movement that is sweeping cinema and threatening celluloid. I would have appreciated more discussion of the impact and influence of dogme on the current mavericks of digital filmmakers that are arising and gaining respect. Digital filmmaking has greatly impacted the short film industry. Where does dogme and short film co-exist
+18104,1,something missing,there wasn't any chemistry between angelina and 'the pitt'. rent if you must see it but don't waste your money buying it. angelina was the only redeeming quality in this boring farce.
+18105,2,great first car,Great first toy car! My child loves to push it around and honk the horn. Very well made!
+18106,2,This is an album you have to buy.,"Altough Saul Hernandez can't sing like he used to , his work on this album is very good. With songs like ""El Huracan"" will just make you hear this album without getting bored of it. Even if you don't speak Spanish,the music of the whole album is just great!"
+18107,2,Great Quality and variety of aquariums,"This DVD is very high quality and lifelike. The variety - fresh and salt water make it nice for a change. Looks great on our 42"" HDTV in the living room"
+18108,2,Time for an update.,"I started with the 1975 edition when I was fresh out of college, and have followed his guidlines ever since. His advice has saved tons of money on useless ""whimsical fashion"" no one needs. Now I am a banking executive (thanks partly to Mr. Molloy) who needs some timely advice. The earlier editions do contain some information that is timeless, but times have changed and even the 1988 version is out of date and needs help."
+18109,1,AT&T 992 Defective Caller ID,"If you work from home and need caller id, skip this phone, unless you don't mind unplugging the second line each time you want to know who's calling you. That's right, you read correctly: For the caller id and/or the call waiting-caller id to work, you can only have one line plugged in. I've been in Telecomm for 22 years so I've tried everything: I tested it at the home demarcation point, I used a friend's phone, the works. Funny fact: I tried making Line 2 my primary line and this made the caller id work for 1 day; but now we are back to plugging and un-plugging the 2nd line. I'm on my way back to Staples to return this piece of junk."
+18110,1,very unhappy,"Did not recieve my book, I emailed seller twice and they never responded. Would definately NOT order from again."
+18111,2,Good gun Good Price,"I just recently got this gun, it is great, it shoots about 370 fps out of the box and with dougs mods it shoots 400-425 fps, your can get the mods at http://www.unconventional-airsoft.com/mirrors/doug-super9-upgrade-guide/members.lycos.co.uk/dougi3000/Super9/it voids the warentee to do this but it is worth it. The only problem i have with the gun is it is a little on the big side, but it is deadly accurate and it hurts bad. lol, if you have any questions email me with the subject line UHC Super 9 ???s. Mine is also the Version 3 model."
+18112,2,strangely compelling,"Barry Hannah is the most successful graduate of the English Department at Mississippi College, however, you will be hard-pressed to find his name mentioned there today. The main reason is this book. This book is largely an autobiography of Hannah, and who knows how much of it is true? The college in the book is Mississippi College, and Hannah's criticisms are honest and embellishing, as are the other observations that he makes in this journey of a book. Geronimo Rex is strangely compelling, and Hannah pulled me right into his head as he tells this story of growing up in the world. Good book, and a must read for anyone from Mississippi College."
+18113,2,Amazing,If you have crowns or bridge work this product is a must have.The water blasts under and around the crown/bridge work.
+18114,1,Garmin C530 - Don't buy,"I purchased two Garmin C530 GPS's for my wife and I in Dec. '07 and was very disappointed with the product. I ended up returning both of them and am planning to purchase the next model up, the Garmin C550. The C530 came with outdated maps and would cost an additional $70 each to upgrade to the 2008 maps, however, if you purchase the C550, you can upgrade to the 2008 maps for FREE. The C530 also did not have alot of common businesses in it that have been around for years. For example, I entered Wal-Mart and it took me to a car dealerhip parking lot however, Wal-Mart was actually located about a mile away on the other side of the highway. I paid $200 for the C530 whereas I can get the C550 for around $310 but the extra $100 is worth it since you would have to upgrade the maps anyway or live with a questionable GPS."
+18115,1,Never again,It's rather dull and boring in my point of veiw. I love musicals but the music for this one did nothing for me.
+18116,2,BEST DEKKER BOOK BY FAR!,"Not only did I read this book I also purchased the audio book. This is--in my opinion--the single greatest Christian Fiction novel I have ever read! Dekker takes a sensitive subject--such as WWII--and not only humanizes the villain but he also carries the pain that was suffered by the captives of the camps and their families. Offhand I do not recall who read the book on the audio cd but there could not be a better voice to portray the voices of Dekker's characters. I read through some of the ""1 star"" reviews and I could not disagree more! Although spiritual warfare is a theme in this book I do not find it to be exclusively about spiritual warfare. There are a few scenes in the book that are a little graphic but most defiantly not over the top! The subject matter in this book is not only realistic it is captivating! DEKKER'S BEST BY FAR!"
+18117,1,Quality,"This is just it...Why spend time on a single, when you got more and better on their album ""Tyranny For You"".Is it worth the effort to stick in a single for 10 minutes of fun? Stick to the longplaying.""Tyranny for you"" is a great Allboom"
+18118,1,Go with a Japanese brand,"Even though Samsung licenses the technology from Japanese vendors, they suffer 1) poor quality control, and 2) terrible ergonomic design decisions, and 3) extremely bad customer support -- don't expect to find anyone if you need support such as warranty fulfillment. A much higher-quality JVC or Sharp doesn't cost much more, and gives you years of trusty service. The image quality on this model is pretty poor, prompting a Korean reviewer to call it worse than many 8mm camcorders. I can't comment on audio, but I'd be really really surprised if a Samsung can have better audio than a Panasonic, which Digital Video magazine gave a very positive review of.So go with the best and get a reliable Japanese brand."
+18119,2,Don't Have Much To Say,"I SHOULD keep this review short and sweet.I like this album. I don't like it as much as ""Breaking The Cycle."" Although both albums rock just as hard and are about the same in someone like me enjoying them. Staind is different from Marilyn Manson. I don't really like to compare the two because Marilyn Manson has nothing to do with Staind. If some people thought this music is depressive, I disagree. I don't know why, but I do. While this sounds similar to ""Breaking The Cycle,"" I actually like them both accurately about the same, and not just because this also has a DVD with it. I do kinda wish Marilyn Manson did the same and released an album and a DVD in the same case. Like I said before, he is entirely different. I hope this helped some."
+18120,1,"Ok, but nothing like the other reviews.","The other reviews must be from band members and/or family, because it is just not all that. I previewed a couple songs at mp3raid.com and it was very amateurish."
+18121,1,More explanation than workout,"I'm ok at following directions, but the complexity of the steps and the long explanations made this not so fun and impractical for learning to learn even short sections of the workout. Disappointing."
+18122,2,Great Customer Service,Arrived quickly and excellently packaged. DVD in even better condition than description. Very happy.
+18123,2,JFK in the Hiz-ouuuuse!!!,"I am through about half of the book, and after having read some pretty one-sided things about JFK, and the well-balalnced ""Profile in Power"", I would have to say, so far, one of the best JFK biographies, indeed one of the best presidential biographies I have read is ""Unfinished"". No pun intended, er-a.dare mighty things"
+18124,2,Paris Bistro comes to US,I have been to Paris and am familiar with several of the bistros profiled in this book. Their cookery is FABULOUS!! Ms. Danenberg has chosen well and the recipes are not only delicious but very satisfying. I can now bring Paris bistro cooking home!
+18125,2,"Loved it - but ya gotta take it on its own merit, alone","At first I was very upset, to hear this would be comedic, I thought, worst case, the humor like Sleepy Hollow by Burton. I really liked the original Dark Shadows series and films (I grew up with them). But, I like how Depp portrays these period films or does period personalities, and I like Burton's humor. So I took a DEEP sigh, mentaly adjusted and focused on the fact - that this is a re-vision of it all Via Depp/Burton....and I had to take it in as a wholly seperate film as if I'd never grown up with a DS history. Once I got there, I love the film and what they did to toss-up the character salads and give them all an alternate flavor. Downside was....Chloe is such a good actess and the boy that played David was good, but they needed more screen time."
+18126,1,look's like VietCong handywork to me,"If you want to lose some fingers or other essential parts of your body ,I suggest to write Mr Ragnar Benson how this FEELS!!."
+18127,2,TAKING AWAY THE FEAR,"Another powerful book in Harold Klemp's series of books that offer ways to build bridges of love to everyone. He touches on mutual respect, goodwill, recognizing the uniqueness of others, looking for the God- quality in each person, since we are all creations of God. The book offers insight into life, and helps to take away the fear of both living and dying. The perfect gift for all seasons. It contains vibrant phrases of spiritual wisdom on giving and gratitude among other subjects. The book is an inspirational momento for perpetually remembering to recognize and count our daily blessings. These are not passive platitudes, they are proactive gems, affirmations that enhance spiritual growth and lead the way to spiritual freedom. Well written and highly recommended."
+18128,2,We love it !!!!,"We love this product. It put a stop to our little girl crying everytime we changed her diaper. She is now 14 months and she still loves it. In great contrast to other warmers that we tried, this one keeps the wipes nice and moist. Wonderful buy :)"
+18129,2,A word about 'Parting Glances' Format...,"A fantastic portrait of gay NYC life in the late 80's, and a timeless testament to the strength of friendship and allure of New York City.My only gripe? It's not letterboxed. Does anyone know why?Besides that, it's a good clean image of an uplifting and inspired film. I was pretty young when I first saw this on cable in the eighties, and it had a profound influence on my life then. I decided that I wanted to live my life the way the characters in this film did. And you know what? I'm thirty four now and I AM living life much like they do in this film.Now that's inspired filmmaking!Steve Buscemi is a marvel, in one of his first film roles. The soundtrack by Bronski Beat still thrills. And New York looks mighty fine. Oh, and the men are none too shabby in the looks department either.Check it out."
+18130,1,"Honestly, I didn't Like it","I used to see Garcia on the Melting Pot and he was the dullest of the Food Network chefs. I guess I should NOT have expected any better from his book. The recipes are OK, but the only thing that even mentions him is the introduction. He would have sold a lot more books if he had Emeril write the intro! I guess Garcia was too busy these past two years to do any writing. I've got my copy up on the Marketplace and hope I can get a few dollars for it!"
+18131,2,God Sent,"If you've ever been bitten by a tick or fleas, then you'll completely understand the need for treatment & prevention of such pests. If your serious about that notion then you will want Frontline Plus. It Works. Guaranteed. Frontline Plus, for people who seriously don't want to deal with fleas....and also for people who actually care about their cat's health & well-being. seriously, if you don't buy this, you don't love your cat. Vote Bob Dole"
+18132,2,"Good camera, but the flash refresh takes to long","So far I enjoy everything about the camera except how long it takes to refresh if the flash is on. It takes between 3-5 seconds, depending on the strength of the batteries, before you can take another picture. If you want to be able to shoot quick shots, you'll have to do it without using the flash. It takes about 1 second between shots without flash."
+18133,1,Dock to USB 2.0 cable for ipod,"I bought this item thinking I would be able to charge my 3rd gen ipod via usb to the computer. This is not possible. The usb connector only allows you to transfer data, at a snails pace compared to firewire. So I wound up purchasing the complete firewire package; Dock connector and the charger."
+18134,1,To much history not any green,If you are looking for a book on being a green witch this book is not for you. Buy The Way of the Green Witch By Arin Murphy-Hiscock if you want to learn about green witchcraft. If you want to learn about the history of witchcraft buy Green Witchcraft. Most of the book is the author rambling along about the history of witchcraft and repeating herself alot. I have no idea what tarot reading has to do with being a green witch. Green witchcraft is not about ceremonies or casting circles or reading tarot cards. It is about nature. Planting flowers and herbs and veggie gardens. Tending nature. Trees and flowers and animals and getting in touch with them. This is just about witchcraft. So in that case I suggest you read Scott Cunningham. I am glad I only paid $1.20 for this book. Really where is the Fairylore and the info on herbs is really sketchy. The book has some pretty illustrations but that's about it. This is just my opinion so feel free to read it and form your own.
+18135,1,Not inexpensive; cheap,"Other reviews on this site said that this inexpensive item, was a bargain, so I bought it. The sounds it produces are very low quality. The white noise sounds like low quality TV static. Each of the other 9 options repeat their sound within a few seconds and are of equally low quality. I have heard white noise machines that produce a much more pleasurable and substantial sound that will put you to sleep in minutes. Unfortunately, from my experience this seeming bargain was not worth the money."
+18136,2,Great Phone!,"We've had several Panasonic cordless phones now and not only do they have great features and work very well, they just don't break. We've never replaced a Panasonic phone due to a problem and we've either handed down or re-sold our old ones. You will not be disappointed with this product."
+18137,1,"Not for me, but maybe for other spiritual seekers","I personally didn't care for the redundance of the writings. The reading didn't flow well. Did not work for me, however other people do enjoy his writings, so don't take my word for it. I did not find it inspiring or educational to help with self improvement> I enjoy books that are uplifting, inspiring, and how to change yourself to improve your outlook, thought processes, etc."
+18138,1,Basic headset,"This is the most basic headset I could find since I didn't want to spend an arm & a leg for a Bluetooth headset. Pluses: cheap, sounds good, did I say cheap? Minuses: The clip is junk and actually damaged the wire before it fell off, the earpiece is too big, the mic picks up every sound in the area. There is also a really weird feedback using the ""mute"" on the phone and the headset.It's better than nothing but you might come out better plunking down the change to get a Bluetooth headset."
+18139,1,What a waste!,"Not only is the accompanying tape only about 10 min in total length, but there are only about 10 rhymes in the whole book!I bought this for my nephew as a 'starter nursery rhyme' book. My SIL likes to sing, &thought; this would be good for all. After receiving,they were strangely silent about it. When I finally visited last wk, I was horrified to see how badly I'd been ripped off. I couldn't apologize enough.#1 - each little verse is sung only once.#2 - as mentioned, the tape looks like a joke. If it plays 5 whole min before it needs to be switched to other side, I'd be surprised.#3 - They could've at least made the book better, by putting each verse on it's own page w/picture, but no, it's a couple per page with one main graphic & tiny ones maybe for the other verses.Book is good for toddlers, with hard pages, but is so short, & the TAPE IS SO SHORT, that it is a total waste of time to even put in a cassette player.Was Carly desperate for a payck or did she just not care????"
+18140,2,Best Book I have read from her!!!,"I have to say that this book was so awesome. I loved the characters and really felt a connection between them! Sure the heroine is married but once you find out what an absolutly horrible person he is you do not object Elizabeth leaving him for Ramiel, who is way more deserving of her love than Edward. I was concerned that I would not like it because of her adultry but like I said, Edward, her husband is so not for her that I could not bare her being with him and not with Ramiel. I hope this doesn't ruin the book for you but even if it does you should still read it because there is a lot to this book and well worth reading!!!"
+18141,2,a good turner,My husband likes it. We have no complaint about it. I think it will last very long time. It's a good quality turner.
+18142,2,Exceptional Air Control,"I purchased the Ionic Pro Air Purifier and within one day, I noticed the difference in the air quality in my apartment. It smells clean and it also seems to have improved my respiratory problems. I would recommend this to anyone with allergies, etc. Best of all, it is silent and cleaning is very easy."
+18143,2,LOVED IT!,"This is Jhumpa Lahiri's first book and a great read. It contains 9 short stories, the first, A Temporary Matter, being my favourite and A Real Durwan being my least favourite. I just thought A Temporary Matter was a great idea for a short story...sad, romantic and well written. Sexy was another brilliant story - Witty and very clever! I eagerly await more from this author."
+18144,2,A good foundation,"My father was a pastor and had a set of these books on a shelf low enough for his children to read, freely. I really loved reading these books when I was a child and they helped develop my appreciation for the Bible. I also liked the pictures and as a growing artist I tried my hand at drawing some of them when I was a child. I am now married and a mother of three. I rediscoved these books when I took my 3 kids (ages 8,9,and 12) to a clinic. I stepped around a corner, in the clinic, to set up an appointment and left them sittng in the lobby. When I returned, I was suprised to find them sitting quietly reading a Bible Story book. They weren't ready to go because they wanted to finish reading. I look forward to buying a set for my home. Of course, first, I will see if my mother will let me have the ones that dad (who passed away) purchased."
+18145,2,a classic reissued but what's with the photos?,"The original hardcover edition was published in 1978. It was reissued in paperback in 2004 when it was digitally printed. Unfortunately that process seems have ruined the quality of the photos so they look like high-quality xeroxes instead of photos, a bit washed out. So it would be worth your while to get the hardcopy version if good photos are important to you.But otherwise it would be an asset to any underwater archaeology library, especially if you're interested in interpreting wreck processes."
+18146,2,Midsomer Murders,I really enjoy Midsomer Murders. I own all 16 sets and this newest one is as good as the first. These shows are fun solving the mysteries and the characters are great.
+18147,2,detailed account of the ultimate sociopath,ann rule's account of the murder of linda brown by her stepdaughter(after being brainwashed by her selfish father) was amazing. i neveer knew someone could be so selfish and selfserving. he is a real creepy guy.
+18148,2,A book to last a lifetime,"This seems to be the book I return to now and again. I feel like I'll finish it...maybe...before I die...I absolutely loved the first 1/3. Was astonished by the honesty, the revealing way the main character was presented. I keep returning to it.I have now finished it! It's the heroes journey....a classic story of a questionable protagonist who comes out with some very high ideals in the end. I truly enjoyed the honest and self-critical presentation of thoughts and the man is a master of dialogue. I really enjoyed the book, it had a magnetic pull for me, I really identified with this couple."
+18149,2,Excellent travel bed for toddlers!,"I bought this aero bed for a 2 week road trip. Hotel, camping and staying at family, this bed was exciting and comforting to my little 3 year old girl. She never rolled out of it because of the raised edge completely around the mattress. The mattress blew up in 1 minute and ready for sleeping in a few. This is the cheapest I found it, anywhere!!"
+18150,2,A drama that is beautiful,This is a beautiful movie that is really well done. It dose have some pretty funny parts in it as well. It is a mixture that is amazing. It is also a exotic type of film. But it was beautifully done.
+18151,1,Kitaro is not as good as before,"I've heard this CD, and unfortunately I'm confused of this music. Kitaro tries to play as Dean Evenson but much worse. There is non-melodical music. It is partially glued with samples, without ""think"" and timing. Maybe two of compositions are better, but it is to little to say, that Kitaro made good CD."
+18152,1,"Jumping here, jumping there",With the exception of 2 or 3 chapters this book is a complete waste of money - too much useless information in a complete messy manner.
+18153,2,Review of function and attractiveness of product.,I looked for some time before finding and using this product. It works beautifully. The television supported by your product fits smartly against the wall. It is easily pulled away from the wall and turned for viewing in either of two rooms. It is easy to tilt the product at a downward angle for better viewing.
+18154,1,Worst Stephen King in a long time,"This book is terrible. Oh, it holds your interest, and the topic is certainly on-spot and almost inevitable. But the style is dreadful. If I didn't think he'd stoop so low, I'd find it easy to believe that King contracted this book out for someone else to write, and just lent his name to it. The book reads as if it were written by Dean Koontz, not by Stephen King. The character development, the descriptive phrases, the diaglogue, are not what you'd expect from King. The characters are flat, as is the dialogue. I was extremely disappointed."
+18155,2,A very useful health reference book,I saw a copy of this book at a friends house and realised that I would find it very helpful as it gave sensible and useful guidance for medical problems.
+18156,1,"Horrible quality, rust inside after 6 months","Horrible quality, rust inside after 6 months in the form of small ""rust"" bubbles, a few here and there. Not obvious, unless you look inside with a lamp, although looks great on the surface. Will try to return it."
+18157,1,Not the same quality anymore,"Spigot leaks if not seated exactly right. Lid is pretty lightweight, much cheaper plastic than years ago. Does the job, but grrrr."
+18158,2,Great set for a beginning quilter,"I had no idea these rotary cutters and self-healing mats existed until I joined a quilting group. This kit even comes with a ruler! I used the Fiskars rotary cutter in class and liked how easy it was to work, so I ordered it. My daughter and I have already used the kit to make two tie blankets."
+18159,2,worth waiting for....,"I was looking for inexpensive patio chair covers that were a nuetral color and not made of cheap vinyl, these fit the bill and they look great on my deck. They were on backorder and I am glad I waited for them. In fact my mom likes them so much she is going to purchase them, too. Not sure how well they will hold up and how good they will look after a a few summers and winters, but it was worth the investment to protect my chair cushions. Now I can stop pulling them in and out of the garage and leave on the deck where they belong."
+18160,2,Virtuoso Guitar Lives Up to Its Name,"Just as the CD title implies, this is a compilation of guitar performances, virtuosic in quality. If you have not yet acquired a taste for solo classical guitar, this collection may whet your appetite, and if even if you have, this is a worthwhile collection. It is good compositions, written by good composers, and played by good performers."
+18161,1,Why would you listen to this?,This is dentist office music. I had the unfortunate experience of having a root canal while listening to this no talent hack.
+18162,2,A very good read.,"I know many people who had trouble getting into this book, and admittedly there is quite a lot of exposition in it, but I didn't feel like anything was unnecessary.I liked this book a lot. I know many people thought Harry was a jerk in this book - but what teenager isn't? That's what I felt this book was really about - Harry's growing pains. He's been through alot already, and any normal person would be a mite cranky about being constantly ridiculed and left out.I found it to be very brave of Rowling not to shy away from making Potter a real teenager, with reeling and difficult emotions. It would have been easy to make him the shining, virtuous, pious example every other writer chooses. Rowling chose to make him real and imperfect and I, for one, love him more for it."
+18163,1,Not what is pictured or described,"I specifically bought these batteries because they were pictured as a standard retail pack of two. What was shipped were two batteries that were torn off of the strip of 5 that is sold elsewhere on Amazon (and there you get 5 batteries for a dollar and change). So I overpaid for these by about double the price, given what I received.However, the batteries seem to have a decent amount of charge, at l;east compared to the one that was formerly in the device. (There was no expiration date on the package so I have no real idea how old these are or how long they will last, but for now it is so far so good.)I would not buy these again online given the number of similar reviews to this one - buy this type of battery locally in a drug store or other shop where you can see the expiration date BEFORE you buy.I am giving this 1 star for the deceptive marketing and overcharging for less than half of the 5-pack strip this was torn off of."
+18164,2,Off Da Chain!!,"If you wanted to know anything about this phenomenal human being then pick up this book! It is totally awesome! There are so many original items in it. It's a must-have for his true fans and those just getting turned on to 'Pac. There's his lawsuit against the OPD, pictures after getting beat, the handwritten contract signed while he was in jail on sexual assault... just a whole slew of personal artifacts from the man himself. It's a treasure and a timepiece that those who really loved him, must own."
+18165,1,Gotta be Cruel to be Kind....,"This book purports to be about alternative lifestyles... how to break into the world of S&M; or BDMR... and if you really need to know the ropes, I suppose this book would be a good starting point. However, I found the illustrations to be overly childish and cartoonish.True, these few simple illustrations may set you at ease, and make an offensive topic more palatable, but let's be frank: This book is about one person's subjugation to another's abuse. Dress it up any way that you want, it's still about abuse, humiliation and (at its worst) torture.Is that what you're into? Then you already KNOW what this book will tell you. Perhaps it will give you a few vicarious thrills... or perhaps tell you of a few more practices that you hadn't heard of yet.If you're not, then this book will try to open your eyes and justify the lifestyle and practices. Do you really need that?It left me cold."
+18166,2,awesome!,I bought four for christmas gifts this year ... they all worked well .... everyone loved them ... defiantly recommend
+18167,2,Keeps you wondering what was next,Anyone that likes a good romance book would enjoy this book. Could almost be anyone's family. Will look for more by this author.
+18168,2,A Novel that Begs to be a Play--or a Movie!,"Actresses like Jessica Lange, Ann Bancroft, Shirle y MacLaine, Meryl Streep and Diane Kenton should be lining up at Faith Sullivan's door! Sullivan's newest novel, What a Woman Must Do, is heart-wrenching rich in character, relationships, forgiveness, the bittersweet blessings of love, longing and inevitable loss lovingly told against the background of a small prairie town in the 1950s. In language as simple and heartfelt as a Gramma Moses painting, Sullivan gently lifts the dotted Swiss priscilla curtains on a household of three women at three different pivotal points in their lives over three summer days in 1952. We get to know them, we instanly believe in them, and in short order we care about them deeply. This is a deeply moving, and satisfying book"
+18169,2,Derivative in a very charming way,"I'm surprised to find myself liking an album this derivative as much as this. It treads the line between progressive rock and jazz, and reminds me a LOT of National Health's first album, with Chris Buzby's (Echolyn) keyboard playing and composing similar to Health's Dave Stewart, and Laura Martin's vocals reminiscent of Amanda Parsons. Bruford fans should also enjoy this, as it has echoes of the ""Feels Good to Me"" album, and guitarist Scott McGill sounds more like Allan Holdsworth than Holdsworth himself does. Martin isn't given much to sing for vocal melodies, and that is the main weakness of the album. This is a 3-1/2 star album. I've gone back and forth a couple of times on whether to round up or down.(1=poor 2=mediocre 3=pretty good 4=very good 5=phenomenal)"
+18170,2,Piece of cake,"I've used this card in a few different laptops now. It's super easy to install. I just throw in the CD, run the setup, insert the card when told to and it just works. Right now it's hooked up to an older laptop with Win2K serving up Rhapsody in my entertainment center without any hiccups. I haven't had any drops, need to reboot because it can't see the network or any kind of issues at all. It's nice to own something that just works."
+18171,1,"Incomplete, but worth a read","The book is written essentially as a series of stories about Einstein. The book was able to hold my interest to finish it, but barely so - many of Einstein's achievements seem a bit muted, and there aren't enough details about his personal life. Details of Einstein's personal life were casually tossed away in a brief paragraph that should have merited an entire chapter.Having said that, the book might be worth a read... based on why your reading it. It just give details about Einstein's most famous achievements.Of course what's truly remarkable about Einstein is that he lived a life so full of achievements that perhaps no biography has the space to cover the broad sweep of his life. He accomplished as much as 10 Nobel Laureates combined, so maybe you just can't fit a super achieving scientist like this in a book."
+18172,1,fantasy!,"Yes, the book looks nice, it says it all - conjures up images of Magnum PI etc.. but inside there is very little of any depth. I found it ludicrous that a whole chapter was given over to how to get fit! Even that isn't done correctly in my opinion. I think this book belongs in the era of movies where typing 'BYPASS SECURITY' and 'OVERRIDE SYSTEM PASSWORD' where the only hacking skills anyone ever needed to access the giant computer! And many of the statements in this book do go along those lines!!!!"
+18173,2,My favorite recording,"I bought this on cassette over 20 years ago, and it continues to be #1 in my top ten list of favorite recordings. It is a perfect blend of baroque and jazz. I remember playing this in my car and my passenger was amazed at the structure of the music, particularly transitions within the pieces. I like all of Bollings series of ""_____ and jazz piano"" but this is the best of all. It remains fresh & creative. How could anyone not find this music compelling?"
+18174,1,Tall white looking able-bodied women and men enjoy...,"I am a disabled person. If it weren't for the threat of being sued I would have a heck of a lot less ability to leave my house than I do now. The only thing bigots are worried about are the lawyers. The police have never defended me or my rehabilitation friends other than to say ""just don't go back"" to the restaurant or store or oceanside park.People in aggregate are NOT very nice. One good accident (not your fault) and you can find that out for yourself."
+18175,1,We Need to Value Ourselves More Than This Woman Values Herself,"I heard Jane Juska speak at an Author's Luncheon. She was fresh, funny and had great comedic timing. She was the hit of the event. So I bought her book with anticipation of more of the same. What a surprise! Yes, the comedic talent was still there but in small doses. What predominated was the portrait of a woman of little self-esteem, often of self-loathing, whose graphic descriptions of sex had little in the way of sex appeal. My mother who is 89 wants to read the book but I will warn her that, in the end, it is not an illuminating experience. And all of the men Jane has sex with are also having or recently have had sex with other women. What about the possiblity of STD's? No mention is made of taking precautions or of ""safe sex."" I hope all of us can move into our late-life years enjoying rewarding sexual relationships. But not at the risk of disease or damage to our self-worth or a suspension of our hard won values."
+18176,2,Fantastic,One of the most stimulating books that I have read. The analogies are so apt. Michael Michalko has revealed a process to something that many feel is abstract and unreachable.
+18177,2,"Great quality, no breakage, wish they stacked.","Great quality, no breakage, wish they stacked. These look fantastic and my wife loves them. I just wish you could stack them at all to save space in cabinet but they will not stack at all (not even 2). Otherwise, fantastic, high quality and have held up quite well already to the demands of a five kid family!"
+18178,1,I was VERY Disappointed!!,"I have read all of Ms. Johansen's books and was anxiously awaiting the arrival of this one! As I started reading it I was intrigued but shortly became confused. I felt I was missing a large part of the story, like I came in at the middle. The character of Eve Duncan was not developed to its fullest and left many unanswered questions (i.e., her relationship with Joe Quinn). As a suspense novel it kept my attention for awhile, however, it was very easy to put down! As a romance novel, I am still waiting! The author's note stated that there will be another Eve Duncan book. Hopefully this one will fill in all the blanks. However, I'll borrow that copy instead of buying it or better yet it should be given out a an ""Oops, we forgot to include these chapters!"""
+18179,2,Awsome mini cds,"To tell the truth, I actually got the 5-pack of the cdr's, but i was very happy with them, where they may not have very much space on them, they are still very cool."
+18180,2,Breathtaking Graphic Novel!,"If you're a DC fan of a certain age, you will certainly appreciate this breathtaking graphic novel which features the superheroes (and a few super villains) from the classic DC Comics Universe!The story is eerily timely and the characters seductively drawn (there are definite moments when ""Atom"" and ""Wonder Woman"" merit a Parent Guidance advisory), but no one does it better than Alex Ross. If only Hollywood would learn to appreciate his gift to comics the way that James Cameron utilized Ken Marschall's artistic talents when it came to the TITANIC.A joy to read for the story...and a feast for the eyes. Love, love, love it!"
+18181,2,A truely entertaining lesson on flight history.,This is a must have for all those who are interested in flight history
+18182,1,Broke within 1 week,"I bought a pair of Cyber Acoustic speakers. The tone quality was terrible, so I took it back and exchanged it. The new pair started out with static, then broke completely after 5 days. This company either has no quality-control, or just doesn't care that they produce trash."
+18183,1,Ranting and ranting,This is one of the few books which made me think that I should ask for my money back. Fontova touches on valid points but his selective history and his unbearably basic prose make this book worth less than the paper it is printed on.
+18184,2,Med dispenser,"Very good while traveling, small, easy to use, easy to to see if you have missed or taken meds, easy to load and use..."
+18185,2,running with the masochists,the group holy sons is kind of the musical equivalent of the 500 books Nietzsche sold in his lifetime .... troubles abound for heroic underdogs
+18186,1,Poor Customer Service & Not So Good Product!!,"I can't mow with it, or get assistance from Sunlawn! The blades seem to be milled improperly on the ends. This keeps me from adjusting the blade to the correct spacing per the owner's manual. Which in turn allows the grass to pull right through without being cut! I purchased this mower on May 15th. I finally received a reply on June 21st after many emails and phone calls. I was to expect a return label for the mower. It is now July 29th. No label. And, no response from Sunlawn. I've been using a reel mower for many years now. I heard so many good things about Sunlawn mowers; I had to try it. Too bad I got a lemon. I hope to get this remedied before the onset of winter. --Upadate-- Finally got the mower back to Sunlawn, but have yet to get my money back after one month and two emails."
+18187,1,They Should Be Ashamed,Who was smoking what when they decided on this? I clicked on this in hopes of finding that they were releasing the House of Mouse shorts- nope they decided to piss on the classic shorts- by some internet styled editing. It's like seeing Citizen Cane acted out by Max Headroom. Totally awful!
+18188,1,I was underwhelmed,"I gave this book the old post-graduate-school try, and while aspects of it were interesting, I just didn't find it the story enough compelling enough to make me want to fight through the author's arcane language. If the story and characters are compelling enough, then I will put in the effort to fight through convoluted sentences. I will read VS Naipaul, for instance, because I have found his thoughts to be insightful, and his characters interesting.Lethem's description of Brooklyn was interesting, but it was so elaborate as to be almost a little overdone. [...]The only difference is, that I found the childrens book compelling and interesting for my children. It also accomplished what it intended to accomplish and didn't drone on for 500 pages.I know that Fortress of Solitude got great reviews, but I found it mostly annoying. That's my review."
+18189,1,Can't tell a difference,It seems to be a good moisturiser but can't really tell any tone change. It smells like food cooking ..... not sure what that's all about but the smell is weird for lotion.
+18190,1,Damaged Merchandise,I orderd this for delivery within the United States. Yet the mug arrived chipped. I had to throw it away. I am also very disappointed with the overall quality of the pieces. They were made in China and made rather poorly.
+18191,1,"My first Mac laptop, and a poor experience","I got a good first impression, but it went downhill from there. I really wanted to believe that kid from ""Jeepers Creepers"" in the Apple ads that this computer didn't crash, but it seemed flakier than any Windows box I've used recently.The Pros:- boots fast. Sleeps/Recovers well. Wireless works weellThe Cons:- Slower than I expected- I found the UI to be baffling, coming from the Windows world- I've had it crash. Mac doesn't exactly blue-screen. You get a message saying ""you need to reboot"". But it's the same thing- Frustrated that a lot of apps I was used to weren't available for the Mac- Occasionally, the screen would get ""scrambled"" and I would need to move windows around to refresh it- Battery life wasn't as good as I hoped. My Sony TX does *much* better."
+18192,1,need negative 5 stars!!!!! junk junk junk,Should have believed the old saying you get what you pay for!!! Low price for low quality junk! Didn't last a week on kicker 1000 watt amp turned way down. Following the break in process. Called about warranty they want you to pay to ship there and back and a 25.00 fee. So more then what you paid to start with!!!! What a joke!!! Save your money buy better speakers these are not for you. The people that gave anything over 1 star are crazy!!!
+18193,2,who says guitar heroes are dead?,"ed mundell totally outdoes all his work with monster magnet(which i never really dug anyway)the best recreation of 70's heavy rock ever created.the heaviness is everything you want in your metal but never seem to receive.i especially appreciate the tommy bolin tune,he has been one of my heroes for years.screw kyuss and all the rest-this is the real deal!"
+18194,1,Waste of time,"I had hopes for this book when I started it. The first chapter was promising, unfortunately it went downhill from there. I continued to read hoping that it would improve but it didn't.I won't go into a synopsis of the plot because it has been stated in many of the reviews. I will say that I felt like Cook must have gotten tired of the story because the last chapter and the epilogue were even more thrown together than the rest of the book. The epilogue left entirely too many questions unanswered and left me wanting to utter profanities at having wasted away the hours it took to read it."
+18195,1,"Out of 100 + pages, only about 10 focused on the info needed","The 10 pages that are directed at the topic are very helpful. The remainer of this book is nothing more than a written infomerical. I would suggest going to a library instead of spending money that could keep your baby in diapers for 3 or 4 weeks! The statement I remember most from the book is ""Remember God makes the final decision""."
+18196,2,"Great show, loser.","I like the Wire because it is a good show. Watching it makes me think that if I quit my job, I could join the police force, become a detective, and have my life turn to shambles just like McNulty. I love you, The Wire."
+18197,1,disappointing,"I've heard Berlitz is widely recognized for language education.The exercises in this workbook are good challenges forpractising French. However I am disappointed to see theanswer key has several incorrect words, spellings and usage.Why provide answers if they're wrong?"
+18198,1,Without the laugh track...,"you wouldn't know it was supposed to be funny.Tired, recycled cliche's jokes and characters abound."
+18199,2,this DVD is fabulous,If you like the blues or rock order this DVD immidiatly.This Ohne Filter series is very well produced.Albert Collins is in top form and is his band really grooves.This is one of my favorite concert DVD's.
+18200,2,Roll of Thunder Hear My Cry,This book was very good. I enjoyed the tense and exciting parts such as Cassie having to say sorry to Miz Lillian Simms. I also likes the very end when white people helped put out the Logans fire. The Logans are black people and the color of your skin is the topic of this novel. This book mentions the starts and ends of friendships. I enjoyed this book very much and I would give it 5 stars.
+18201,1,fearful customer care and follow-up,"I ordered the micro mem card and I recieved it promptly and at a good price.Shortly there-after, it failed. I contacted them and they were quick on the emails and sorta helpful. The disc turned out to be totally defective. In the last email, I was told a replacement would be here shortly, and WOULD I CONSIDER REPLACING WHATEVER POOR FEEDBACK I MAY HAVE POSTED WITH A FAVORABLE ONE? I replied that I would be happy to, AFTER I received a working card. That was 2 weeks ago and still no card.P.S. I already purchased another from another company and it works fine."
+18202,1,Ouch!,"If I could give a 0 rating, I would. Like many others here, I wish that I would have read the customer reviews before I bought the book. I really enjoy Patterson's work, but this book offended me. I won't even keep the book in my house - it's gone to the trash - where it should have stayed! Bring back Alex Cross."
+18203,1,Warning - read product details and go for the upgraded model!,"I ordered this as a gift for my daughter, thinking it was like the one I have had for 10 years. I didn't realize that the bowl does not have a handle, plus the low wattage leaves a lot to be desired for mixing basic things like thick cookie dough. With the handled bowl being so expensive as a separate order item, - and you WILL want the handle -it's worth it to just get the 450 watt model with the handled bowl and pouring shield."
+18204,1,Doesn't charge,"I bought two units and neither one of them would charge my iPad, iPhone or iPod. I believe the problem is in the plug itself."
+18205,1,Doesn't work and absolutely NO SUPPORT!!,A waste of money! It doesn't work. I'm plugging it into a new Dell laptop with Windows 7 and isn't recognized. Their web-site provides zero help with no way to contact them.
+18206,1,Caveat Emptor!,"Well said by Tvshooter, ""I think Microsoft just wanted to get the Zune on the market before Christmas"". I have been in the software/hardware business for thirty years and this item has missed its mark! After playing with the zune.inf file and registering .dlls to get it to work, I finally called it quits and returned the product for an IPod! My gut instinct told me not to purchase a product that is version 1.0; however, since it was Microsoft - I thought - ummm - what the hell - let's give it a try! Well, dissapointing! I felt like I had returned to the dark ages when PCs first came on the scene. This was no way to spend a Christmas morning! I will wait for version 3.0."
+18207,1,STILL WAITING,"On July 29, 2011 the money for this movie was taken out of my account, tracking said it was delivered but never received it. Cannot get a hold of anyone to get this matter taken care of. Not so sure I want to order any more through amazon.com. I do like this movie if I ever get I will change this review, until then!!"
+18208,1,It is really terrible,"I got this as a gift it worked fine for 2 days then one day i unplugged it one power source to another one ...... and that was it ..... it never worked again ..... it just died tried all to make it work again but nothing worked .... and like said before the customer support is like it doesn't exist ....do not buy it, its like spending money for nothing ....."
+18209,1,DONT BUY THIS,"i was very dissapointed with this product. it worked fine right until the warranty expired, then all it did was cause me grief, resulting in me just throwing it away."
+18210,2,The girls are so fun together,I enjoyed the book and did not want it to end. I would love a sequel to keep following al of the girls
+18211,1,Video card problems,"I really loved the Shogun games, and Medieval looks like it could be a major time sucker. However, I'm running a 2-year-old Windows 98 machine with an integrated Intel video card, and this game won't run on it, even though every other game I own works fine, including recent graphics-heavy titles like Freedom Force ..."
+18212,2,dear john letters,great cd. you'll really like it. I do. listen to it over and over and over. still not sick of it. that's something. plus they are great live. definitely my favorite local band right now.
+18213,2,This is a kooky video but your kids will probably love it.,"My three-year-old daughter loves this video and asks to watch it over and over. Although most adults think the Monkey Dance is the best song, it isn't even her favorite. She likes the puppets, although I can see why another reviewer's son thought they were scary. I thought this was going to be a dud after the first viewing, but was surprised by how much my daughter has grown to love it. I am back to buy the Wiggle Time video for her tonight."
+18214,1,Walt Disney would be proud,"If its a sword movie you want to see, don't waste your timeNot a drop of blood is spilled in this entire film.It's way too slow, the special effects look like they were bought a Kmart, there are no memorables lines/quotes.If you like Walt Disney films this movie is for you.If you want to see great battles with swords you will be very disappointed."
+18215,2,Mini Random Orbital Sander Kit CP7200,"I have frequent need for a small RO sander and the CP7200 offered by AMAZON attracted my attention. This tool appears to be well made, it handles and runs nicely and speed is easily modulated. The hook and loop discs mount firmly and are easy to change. Likes: two sizes of hook and loop back up pads, small size, fairly good selection of 'starter' sanding discs, storage case. Dislikes: terse instruction booklet, two documents are needed to understand parts list and maintenance recommendations and no lubricant is included in the starter package. Product description should list a hook-up hose whip as it is needed to properly use the tool and available additional coarser grit discs."
+18216,1,SHM CD version of Trilogy,"This review speaks only to the quality of the ultra expensive, Japanese SHM CD version of Trilogy. Look for another version of this c.d.. The hiss that is present during and between songs is unbelievable. It is as bad as listening to an old cassette tape. I am blessed to own the MFSL version which I assume is still the gold standard of this c.d..I purchased this edition on a lark because it was touted that ""you won't believe it's the same c.d."". Well, they were right but for the wrong reason. This is a 10 star title that deserves better."
+18217,2,"4 stars ,a little itchy!",my husband loves these he wears them over his silk longunderwear we live in 20 degree weather all winter long and he is toasty!
+18218,1,What a joke!,"Anyone interested in facts will read this book, then use the pages as toilet paper. Here are some facts about this book:FACT #1: THIS IS A BOOKFACT #2: THIS BOOK HAS PAGESFACT #3: THE PAGES FROM THIS BOOK CAN BE USED AS TOILET PAPER IN COUNTRIES THAT ARE SHORT OF TOILET PAPERI have just listed the only facts this book has."
+18219,2,THE EMPIRE ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!,This is the best movie!!!!! It is hilarious and the soundtrack is awsome!!! You have to love Lucas and Mark they are just too cool! DAMN THE MAN!! SAVE THE EMPIRE!!!!!!!
+18220,1,"""Arthur""-ian realism.... funny but dissapointing","title- funny, but dissapointingAlthough Dudley Moore was a funny and talented actor...it seems that he is playing a sober Arthur here. He's just a lot hornier.It could be said that in this film, Moore represents the common man obsessed with the ""perfect"" woman... That's just not conveyed here. And Bo Derek just isn't my taste in women anyway.I thought this film, with it's shrug-your-shoulders ""eh, so what?"" plot, really wasn't anything special. It wasn't bad, but not great. It's funny, but it's almost exactly the same film as ""Woman in Red"" with Gene Wilder. Both films are equally boring.MY HONEST ADVICE: If you want to see a great Dudley Moore film, see ""Arthur"". His comedy style is personified there.If you want to see Bo Derek, go out an rent a swimsuit video of her or something. I'm not being sarcastic. It's not worth seeing this film if you're seeing it just because you think Bo Derek is hot."
+18221,2,Great stuff!,"I agree with the writer who suggests making it a topping for hotcakes or waffles. I, however, use it straight. I also suggest buyers look on the Dutch Gold website for recpies. My office loved the roasted walnuts topped with buckwheat honey."
+18222,2,DESRVE MORE THAN 100 STARS,"the Transnational Colege of Lex Tokyo has done two beautiful books this one and the other marvelous book ""what is quantum mechanics"" which also worth its weight gold,I have bought alot of books and i found these two books plus epstein's marvel ""thinking physics"" are the best sceince books writen in the english language ever.back to this book,,,in short ..excellent work.its very very pedagogical and step by step one will master the subject.my only note on fourier's book is on the treatment of the fast fourier transform which is not really as good as the rest of the book.any one like a crystal clear exposition on this please refer to""the scientists and engineers guide to digital signal processing"".in future i will buy any book transnational co. will issue.my only hope is that transnational colege next pne will be on the general relativity and will see subject of tensors and manifolds that kind of clearity and understandability.thanx 4 reading my review."
+18223,2,The Best Homeschooling Book Available,"Absolutely the best book available for parents interested in homeschooling and providing a rich education to their children. I wish I had time to say more, but you won't be sorry if you buy this book. I promise."
+18224,1,The first novel by the man who would become Cordwainer Smith,"Ria, by Felix C. Forrest,was first published in 1947 and reprinted in 1987. He is not yet Cordwainer Smith, whose first science fiction story was published a few years later -- though the themes of cats, suffering, cruelty, and male-female relationships are already present. At times he pontificates at length, and some of the writing (and the ideas) are very dated. I re-read it recently and didn't enjoy this as much as I enjoy most CS. But then I'm hardly objective, as I'm one of his daughters.Ria herself came alive for me (though most of the other characters didn't much), and one of the most interesting things about the book for me was how my father wrote mostly from the female point of view, through the eyes of Ria herself.Anyone who is utterly fascinated with Cordwainer Smith might be interested in this, but otherwise, it's pretty much history."
+18225,1,not german shepherd proof!,"I bought this because it was from Kong and the reviews were good. It did not last more than ten minutes before my dog ripped it apart. It was also smaller than I thought, only six inches tall. Its nice that there isn't any stuffing to pick up. My dog loved it though. But this is probably only good for small dogs."
+18226,1,"terrible, archaic translation","I am a third of the way into the book and I am giving up. This horrible translation is ridiculously archaic. Does the modern reader really need this many thou's, thee's, shalt's?? No, the modern reader does not. If anything, the language used makes it even harder to process and internalize the otherwise useful and insightful journal entries of Marcus Aurelius."
+18227,1,Redundant,"If you're interested in buying this book, you've probably already read it. The first half of it was called Godel, Escher, Bach, and the second half was called The Mind's I. But the amusing dialogues of GEB and the influential essays of The Mind's I are missing, leaving nothing but a dry exposition of Hofstadter's worldview that you probably already know.I suppose the book would go over better with someone who was new to Hofstadter, but then such a person would still be better off reading Godel, Escher, Bach and making most of this book redundant in the process."
+18228,2,Absoultely Mystifying!,"In all of MHC's books you just never know who did it. This is the second book I read of her and I'm forever hooked! Loves Music, Loves to Dance is an ingenious book about a young woman and her search to find out who has killed many women including her best friend."
+18229,2,Relaxing,"I often find yoga to be too boring, or not engaging enough, so I usually stick to cardio workouts, but with pregnancy I realize I need to slow down, and this is the perfect video for that. The instructor is very calm and soothing, and there are two pregnant woman working out with her showing different levels of flexibility and range. I felt really well stretched out by the end of the video, and quite calm, just the way a prenatal yoga video should make you feel. Aesthetically, they are all color coordinated, not like it matters, but I noticed and found it calming. Actually, just thinking about it makes me want to do the video again! haha."
+18230,1,Total crap,"I received the rod. The handle was falling off when received. Threads on both rod and in handle were completely gone that it screws on. I elected to try are repair it wrather than return it. Handle hole had to be drilled to a larger size Handle was cheap pot metel and barely took threads, then had to re-thread rod to match it. I wish I had spent more and got a good one."
+18231,1,Save Your Money,"""The Light in the Piazza"" is not a very good show and the music is appropriate to the general qualtiy of artistic expression."
+18232,1,What Garden?,"I bought this for my Drinkwell Platinum which I and my cats love. However nothing green grew from the seed pod, just some white stringy things. Next time I'm not going to waste my time. I will buy $0.10 worth of barley grass and a little potting soil and grow my catgrass (barley grass) the right way. No fault of Amazon as a reseller but Drinkwell really needs to improve these or quit selling junk."
+18233,1,Whackjobbery in Progress,"The book might be OK if you were reading it as some sort of introduction to survivalism 101 but as a novel, it's bad. The whackjob part of it starts slowly but then really picks up speed as two brothers declare themselves soveriegn citizens who really don't need to be bothered with that whole ""having a valid license"" thing in order to drive. They get stopped by a NC trooper who talks to them like no law enforcement officer I've ever known (confession - I've been a cop for over 31 years, actually still working) and then begins shooting at them for no apparent reason. Just weird. The really frightening part is that the author has a top level security clearance as an Army Intelligence officer. How did he slip past the psychs?"
+18234,2,Bachman and Turner (Overdrive),"For those of you who grew up listening to Bachman Turner Overdrive in the mid to late 70's and early 80's, you will not be disapppointed! Randy Bachman and Fred Turner are rocking as good as ever! Their voices sound as pure as the original recordings. Their differing vocal styles is probably what brought alot of people to their music, and of course their driving rock licks!I'm not familiar with the other band members in the group, but they are obviously solid and tight and play BTO to it's purest form. If you ever have a chance to see B & T in concert, don't let those tickets pass. You will not be disappointed. They put on a great concert, have good stage presence and the everlasting ""feel good"" rhythms are still rocking into 2011 and 2012."
+18235,2,Honoring Charlie Parker,"This is a fantastic movie with lots of special features. It doesn't matter if you're a fan of Forest Whitaker as an actor, Clint Eastwood as a director or Charlie Parker as an artist (which I am, am and am now). It's just a great movie that honors a man who greatly influenced jazz and influenced all modern music. You'll see some important history from that era."
+18236,2,ROMANCE PERSONIFIED,"TODOS LOS ROMANCES IS A 3 CD COMPILATION. #1 AND #3 CONSIST OF MAINLY VERY ROMANATIC BALLADS. BEAUTIFUL INSTRUMENTATION. SOUNDS LIKE A WORLD CLASS ORCHESTRA BACKING HIS STRONG SOULFUL VOICE. #2 IS MY FAVORITE ALTHOUGH IT HAS THE SAME BEAUTIFUL ORCHESTRAL SOUND, IN THIS CD YOU HEAR THE MEXICAN/LATINO INFLUENCE. THEY'RE ARE A COUPLE OF MARIACHI SONGS INCLUDED SUNG IN HIS STYLE THAT ARE AWESOME. BEAUTIFUL MUSIC."
+18237,2,FABULOUS! A MUST-SEE FOR CARTOON FANS!,"This is a wonderful movie and a definate must-see for cartoon fans. Cute, but in a much more adult way than Roger Rabbit, Cool World is an odd but appealing and fun look into the separate worlds of humans and cartoons."
+18238,2,Visor Organizer,"I ordered this from Amazon as none of the auto stores had anything this large or anything that would suit my needs. Upon arrival I was a little disapponited in the length of the straps that ae used to fasten it to the visor. Apparently this design dates back a few years when vehicles had smaller visors. I was able to get it attached using the straps, but they are barely long enough, another inch would have been great. Other than that small issue it is designed very well and suit my needs for storage of gas tickets, business cards and the like."
+18239,1,Lots of Big Blue **** Not Much Else,"Uhh Really this movie was wack....I loved the Comic Book and loved the comic book for what it was...But much of the politics of the Book just dont translate to film because the Director's lack of Creative Vision and he just doesnt have the Guts to add in real time politicians in and replace the throwback 80's mixed made up history stuff....The Film would have been so much more powerful had they Changed the Timeline to Present Day, cut out all those unnecessary shots of DR Manhattan's penis(the whole being naked thing losses its sting after a while and just becomes purely ridiculous), found a better silk specture ....On the bright side Jackie Lee Haley is an awsome Rorscach, Patrick Dem is a great Nightowl, and the Comedian was played very well also....Rent it dont buy it..."
+18240,2,This Album is a Keeper,"It is so refreshing to get a n album that gets the humor of South Park. I bought it for 'Chocolate Salty Balls,' but was pleasantly suprised by the rest fo the album. This is a 'Must Have'."
+18241,1,Disappointed,"I have to admit that I was very disappointed with the novel after reading the glowing reviews. This book was probably one of two books I have never finished. I just could not bring myself to complete it. I honestly found no character that pulled me in emotionally. Everyone seemed to be caricatures of one fault or another, including the father and daughter. In all honesty, my opinion of almost every book or movie rests with the abilty to care about at least one character. In this book, I found no one. I was turned off by every person in the story. And as for the chills, I did not see what the other reviewers saw.I have never been one to put someone off of something. But this time I just had to write something down. Judging by all of the other reviews, I am in the extreme minority. I may give another of Tamara Thorne's novels a try. It may have just been this particular book."
+18242,2,HOW TO TURN OFF LIGHTS,"Treppie wrote a review about the product, and info on how to turn out the lights. Yes, they're beautiful when you want them to be. But if you want the lights out on the machine? Follow the instructions in the manual to set the time...and then press the (|) button (power) to turn off the lights. That's the only way to get them to turn off without unplugging the dang thing. THANK YOU TREPPIE."
+18243,2,Perfect size.,"These are the perfect size ramekins. I prepared a dessert of three different flavors of creme brulee, and these are the perfect size."
+18244,2,good quality,i wasn't sure how much i needed so i bought the 250 and now i have about a hundred feet left for future projects. seems to be good quality and i know about the company.
+18245,2,A job well done,This book is one of or the best that I have read in a long time. The writer of the book did an excellent job creating and evoking a variety of feelings within me. I am glad I read this book and I hope you will be too.
+18246,1,Not so much,"Gave me a bad headache and made me nauseous, plus pills are huge, too big to swallow. Nothing really good to say about moodmax, no positive effects."
+18247,2,Americas Cup 1988,This is a first class record of the rogue challenge for the Americas Cup from New Zealand shortly after the cup was won by Stars and Stripes in Freemantle Australia. San Diego Yacht Club successfully defended the challenge in what has become one of the low points of this must sought after trophy. Good reading from front to back.
+18248,1,"He needs to learn what a ""proof"" is","This textbook relies on more handwaving arguments than my Quantum textbook! Griffiths seems to be under the impression that he is an astounding mathematician and the reader can barely integrate. The ""proofs"" of almost every key concept are either fleshed out in ""Well suppose... then this might happen..."" or altogether left to the reader. It was a fun challenge to actually write a proof for a lot of them, too... maybe Griffiths should have tried it when he wrote the book.If the reader does every single problem in the book, he or she may have a mid-undergrad level understanding of basic E&M.; Very little relativity, and no Quantum mechanical aspects are covered (if I remember correctly)."

+18250,2,boys will be boys,"I was struck, as I watched this film, by the thought that ""boys will be boys"". It offers a window into a culture that is totally different from my midwest childhood, yet I recognize some of these characters. They are very similar to some of the guys I knew growing up.I enjoyed this film becuase it allows you a bit of time to get to know this group of friends, to see the interplay of personalities, before the conflict which culminates in the revealing of the truth mentioned in the title. Be warned this is not a fast moving film, but if you enjoy an armchair view of another culture, you might want to try it."
+18251,1,Huh?,"The book is quite unusual. At first I didn't think it real. It is designed for people who do not read or know Chomsky. Just plain infantile slander, criminal really. The authors misrepresent the most basic aspects of his career. And what is an ""anti-reader?"" It is silly as the book is lunacy."
+18252,1,WRONG ITEM,I ORDERED FROM 2 DIFFERENT COMPANIES. THNAK GOODNESS I ONLY ORDERED 1 PAIR FROM THIS COMPANY. THEY SENT THE WRONG PRODUCT IN THE WRONG SIZE. I COMPLAINED TO AMAZON BUT HAVEN'T GOTTEN ANYWHERE. THE OTHER ONES WERE FINE. I'M NOT A HAPPY CAMPER. PROBABLY WON'T ORDER THROUGH AMAZON AGAIN. I DON'T EVEN KNOW THE COMPANY AND THEY DIDN'T SEND A RECEIPT OR PACKING SLIP OR ANY PAPERWORK IN THE3 PACKAGE.
+18253,2,LOVED IT!,This movie rocked. It was so funny at the end when Ernest ran away and the were painting on each other. My favorite part was when ernest pulled his wife down the stairs.
+18254,2,a page turner,the first time i herd of this author was on this site after reading his book i am hooked i order 2 and the good thing is you can afford it on this site you will love his book a real page turner
+18255,2,"Looks good, and doesn't cost much.","This hat is nicely proportioned. Some XXL hats look kind of goofy like a Wimpie hat from a Popeye cartoon, so it kind of looks silly, like the hat is the size of a hamburger on top of somebody's head. This hat doesn't do that -- it looks great. There is an Indiana Jones pin on the ribbon, but you can take it off, if you do it slowly. Be careful because the pin may have 2 little butterfly wing shaped prongs to it, not just one prong like a regular pin. My vote would be for the manufacturer to skip putting the Indiana Jones pin on the hat. The hat looks fine without it.Excellent hat company. They ship you the hat fast, and it comes in a box with enough paper padding that the hat doesn't get crushed in the box. It's the kind of service you wish you got from every business on the web."
+18256,2,Little Sure Shot,Wonderful pictorial with nice little tidbits of information. I loved the pictures and would recommend this to any Annie Oakley fan.
+18257,1,"Ok, but not great.","This book wasn't anything like the other bardic novels in this series. It had little or nothing to do with music or magic. I would have liked this story better if the ""bad guy"" hadn't been so pathetic. It seems as though Misty was getting desperate for an evil charactor in this book and just grabbed someone out of a hat. I won't spoil it for those of you who haven't read the book, but the person who is behind the murders just didn't seem to fit the part. It is good, however, that we are able to understand and get to know Ardis better, but over all I felt disconnected from the under-developed charactors. A very light book; good if you have nothing else to read."
+18258,1,They all didn't hatch as promised...,"OK, I recieved this; excitement intact. I followed the steps, and waited 24 hours. Then I poured the eggs in and nothing hatched. But a couple of days later this thing appeared (lived for a couple of days), then it to, died. So this was a HORRIBLE purchase!! Wouldn't recommend!! :-(("
+18259,1,Overrated,The best parts of this movie are in the previews. I expected a better product and story. The storyline is very weak. Just a lot of beefcake!
+18260,1,Looking for something else,"This product is advertised as a ""sound reducing"" device. It is not. It does absolutely nothing dampen surrounding noise. Massive disappointment for someone who bought them to shut everyone around me up."
+18261,2,Word Eater!,Book Review- I liked the part in wordeater where Learner found out that Fip a worm could eat words. Why I liked it or not- Why I liked it is because there was a worm that could acually eat words. How it could be better- It would be better if wordeater had another character and if they added more details and a wordeater #2. Why I read it- I read it because my reading teacher told me and the rest of the class to read it. S.K & P.S
+18262,1,Bad video transfer,The video transfer on this was bad. Scenes in broad daylight were so badly damaged you couldn't see them on the screen. There were no extras on the DVD. This is a classic example of a studio trying to pull in $$$ on a cheap re-issue.
+18263,1,Waste of $5....,"I was expecting a lot more from this movie. It was a grave disappointment from two very talented actors. I think if I could give it negative stars, I would."
+18264,2,Previous reviews appear to be fake,"The previous two reviews by ""Dr. Joda Jung"" and ""Dr. Harrison Jung"" appear to be fakes. What they write has nothing at all to do with the content and topic of this book or its authors."
+18265,1,Very Dissapointing,"I really don't even know what to say about this film besides: It was horrible. With the great cast it had, I can't believe the movie was this boring and pointless. Thank god I saw it at the matinee price, what a waste of time!"
+18266,2,Great band...,"...great music and this is one great concert dvd. I've not seen MMJ live yet, but hope to soon.Awesome stuff!"
+18267,1,Bor .... ing !,"One of the few movies I walked out on when it played in the theater. Could never figure out the reason for Balsam's character who pops in and out at various times for no apparent reason. It doesn't even deserve one star, but there is no zero star rating. Save your time and money."
+18268,1,Harry Potter - proof there is no god,"This game is a great game, for all those under the age of 7. Anyone who prefers games with a sense of challenge, speed, and dignity should steer clear of this game. For those of you who are fans of Harry Potter and are inclined to get it because of that, this is not the game to get. This game merely disgraces the already pitiful Harry Potter series."
+18269,2,Irish-American Copper,"A good cop show taking place just before civil war is over - 1860's New York. An American-Irish cop patrolling the 5 points of New York. When it comes to the law, Corcoran isn't always an angel. Kevin'll steal from crocks, but he does want justice for the guilty and protection for all the innocents.An all star cast. Tom Weston-Jones (MI-5Episode 1) as Kevin Corcoran. Anastasia Griffith (Once Upon a Time: The Complete First Season) as the wealthy and ignorant Elizabeth Haverford.Franka Potente, in my opinion, is the big star of the show. (Run Lola RunandThe Bourne Identity) She plays the Madam Eva Heissen.The characters are well developed and believable. The plot suspense is good and each episode with a new plot twist. I recommend this show to all those who enjoy a good cop show or 1860 New York 5 points gangs period piece."
+18270,1,Ugh.,I loved this piece until the clover face came unglued. Now it's a locket with a bunch of glue on the face. Sigh.
+18271,1,Is it safe? Is it safe? Is it safe? -5 stars,"Hello World,I really don't have to say anything, the other reviews are 100% correct. I watch about 80 to 100 horror movies a year, this is a complete waste of time. Mr. Lommel needs to take up accountng or something."
+18272,2,A good text.,"A decent book for learning cosmetology, I think I prefer it to my Milady text but for me its all in the teacher, not the text. Pivot Points methods are good and they will give you lasting foundations in haircutting that are useful beyond 'just the basics'."
+18273,1,disappointed,"Her work is usually so much better, I had to force myself to finish the book. It jumped around too much,Have read better"
+18274,1,Disappointing Eroticism,"To be brief, this movie is too dull. Sadly, Maude Adams is, also, not exposed, which was a significant motivator for the purchase."
+18275,2,Great book! Super creepy!,"I really liked this book. It kept me up 'til all hours of the night reading it to see what happened next. I was a tad disappointed at first because the title does seem a bit misleading. I was expecting a different sort of novel, but nonetheless, after reading a bit I was completely engrossed in the story. Like another reviewer said, it reminded me a bit of Stephen King's ""The Raft"". I kept thinking about if I was in this situation, what would I do? All I can say is, in the midst of reading this book I went out to do some yardwork around my house, and as I was pulling some vines off of one of the shrubs, I was definitely flinching a little thinking about this book. Any book that can do that, is a winner with me. No, it is not a lighthearted feel good story that you may want to read again, but it is definitely worth a reader's time in my opinion."
+18276,2,know your enemies,My copy of this book is held together by rubber bands due to the use it has seen over the last 35 or so years. If you aren't comfortable using the key for identification in the back of the book the clear pen and ink drawings are more than enough to enable you to name your opponent. An invaluable resource for the knowledgeable gardener.
+18277,1,Sort of Disappointing,"I found this book a bit disappointing. I have high expectations of O'reilly books and have found them a treasure trove of valuable information. I was expecting the same in-depthness from this book. Unfortunately it seemed to me much more of a survey of the OS rather than delving into the nitty gritty of the subject matter.If you are new to Solaris it may be a great book, but it seems to me an experienced Solaris admin will be disappointed by this book."
+18278,2,From A Partially-Willing Connoisseur,"Thus far, I'm calling this the BEST of the series. I have not read all the titles, but over 20 of them are under my belt and looped through my head. DRAGON is definitely my favorite. It includes some of the series more obscure adjectives/textures (opening with ""tufty"" and closing with ""scaly,"" which I haven't seen in any others) and the dragon on each page is different, which is much more fun than the LION or MONKEY editions.Incidentally, the That's Not My...'s are the best and best priced touchy/feely I've been able to find. I initially found them inane, but as I explored the board book genre I quickly reevaluated my first impression. This series incorporates textures other than the standard ""soft,"" ""furry/fluffy/dowy"" or ""silky,"" which is a welcome change and more of a sensory experience for the baby. Matthew Van Fleet's books, DOG, CAT, and MOO do surpass That's Not My... but you pay a premium for the quality."
+18279,1,avid sci fi reader,"I have read sci fi for over fifty years. This book was long and tedious. The characters were boring and the aliens were like something out of a childrens book.There was some good ideas in the book but failed to hold my interest.Save your time and money. If you want really great science fiction, try Jack Vance's Planet of Adventure. My alltime favorite."
+18280,2,Tie before you fly.,"This handy book provides a detailed instructions for tying a wide variety of flies that will be useful when flyfishing in Alaska. The book is organized into chapters devoted to a particular type of fishing (i.e., still water, streamers, saltwater, etc.). A set of handy tables matching up fly to species and time of the year is provided. Also included is information on how to fish the various flies.Another two related books of interest are ""Flyfishing Alaska"" by Route and ""Fly Patterns of Alaska"" by the Alaska Flyfishers."
+18281,1,"Great radio, as long as you keep it dry","I gave this shower radio to my wife for Christmas. The reception was great, picking up our favorite AM,FM and TV stations even without extending the external antenna. After only 5 days in the shower however, both the clock and radio stopped working and I could see water in the LCD window. This unit is NOT water resistant and should not be advertised as such. It may be OK to use in the bathroom but should not be advertised as a shower radio because it will not tolerate exposure to even small amounts of water."
+18282,1,The book that went nowhere fast,"I hate to say it, but this book did very little for me. I've been an Anne McCaffrey fan for years, but this book is a disappointing ending to a great series. I was surprised to find out that the plot went absolutely nowhere. There was some intrigue and political maneuverings, which I've enjoyed in many of McCaffrey's novels (Sassinak, Decision at Doona, Crysal Singer series just to name a few) but I was surprised when many of these plot twists and turns ended up as dead ends.Perhaps, McCaffrey has become so enamoured with these characters, she couldn't bear to part with them. I'm not sure. To me, this seems like she was trying to just tie off loose ends with no real story behind the works."
+18283,1,"If I could enter fewer than 1 stars, I would",I have a small CPA office. I bought one HL-5140 in January and another one last week. The first one died yesterday with a broken part; the second one died today after printing one page at a time. Brother HQ apologized several times and offered to send me a reconditioned printer--for the one I just bought last week.I knew the printers were disposable and that printer repair places will not work on Brother printers. But I did not expect the printer to die after a week.Luckily Best Buy is across the street so I bought two Lexmarks. I hope they will last until April 15!
+18284,1,I expected a better product,"I liked these paddles right out of the package. Looked and felt like a pretty good deal. Got them at Christmas time and they have been used a handful of times. We're not thru February yet and the rubbers are peeling off the paddles. I wasn't expecting great quality, but peeling after a few weeks is not acceptable. In the set of four paddles we have only used two of them and they are both peeling. It's not a good value if it is trash this quickly. I guess paying more for better quality might end up being cheaper in this case."
+18285,2,travel tested - luv it,"well, I have my case for over a year now and it's still workingI travel a lot, expecially by plane and I think everybody knows what that means...I'm used to have my GBA in my hand luggage and so it needed some kind of protecion.This mini case is perfect!I can carry 2 games with it (3 if you leave one IN the GBA) and until now it never opend by itself.My GBA got no damages after all the checking it got at every airport I've been.Also, because of all the stress at airports nowadays, it's quite normal (for me *gg*) to accidentally drop my purse. Even so neither the GBA nor the case itself got ANY damage.I really recommend it"

+18287,1,Kiosk Rating <1,A setting of a post office and a dysfunctional postal worker obsessing over a coworker and a shootout amongst the mail leads to the fastest FF I've done in a long while.
+18288,1,Why the $10.00 price increase?,"I love this product and have been buying it for years but why has the price gone up so drastically? I have bought this 6 bottle case for years and have paid $22.95 with ""subscribe and save"" and now it's $32.84! That's almost a $10.00 increase since the last time I purchased it in only 4 months ago. With the environmentally friendly industry now expanding by leaps and bounds and so many other choices out there, I'm not sure why this company would want to drive away customers by such a radical price change. What a shame; I have now cancelled my subscription and am looking for another product or supplier."
+18289,2,THE BEST GAME!,THIS GAME ROCKS !This is a great game.I got Playstation one for Christmas and I also got digimon rumble arena.I figured it out right away .It's a little bit hard too.Espeacialy the last level with Reapermon.The best way to beat him is to use Wormmon with Silk thread or you can use Stingmon(His evolved form)with Spiking strike.It's a great game and you should buy it.
+18290,1,Spend Your Money on a Better Book than This One,"I do not understand the hype for this book, unless, as another reviewer says, the author purchased the good publicity. Boonville, the book, is: Overwritten, mean-spirited, juvenile and shallow. To write well, one must truly care about one's characters and their plight -- it is, after all, the key to getting the reader to give a damn long enough to finish the book. Anderson ridicules and trivializes, leaving the book without either heart of soul. Even when viewed as satire, Boonville fails quite dismally."
+18291,1,Not fully supported by Mac OS X,"The Linksys USBBT100 does not support the headset protocol with Mac OS X. Otherwise it seems to work fine, but if you're planning on using a bluetooth headset for Skype or iChat AV, you're better off going with the D-LINK BT120 even though the D-Link has only a 10 meter range."
+18292,2,Wow! The best early Sci-Fi film updated for today,"Finally, after only seeing TDTESS on TV for 40+ years, I pryed open the wallet and ordered this for my new Blu-Ray player. I ordered this along with the Blu-ray of Avatar.I will say I love both movies, but TDTESS will always be my favorite sci-fi film. This from a person who owns all the modern sci-fi films and TV series. It was such a pleasure to watch this without commercials. The blu-ray presentation is very impressive, very little grain and just awesome audio. It loaded on my blu-ray in less than 30 seconds.Remembering the first time I watched this movie, my age was about 10 years and it was on the NBC Saturday Night at the Movies. It was usually on every two years or so. Really doubt if I blinked during the entire film the first time I watched it. Didn't want to miss a millisecond of the story. Really do doubt if there will ever be a more pure example of basic sci-fi than this film."
+18293,2,Great Experience!,"The assembly instructions were very clear, and it took about 2 1/2 to 3 hours to assemble. The parts fit well -- they were all included -- and there were no surprises. Our family likes everything about the unit. We recommend using sand to fill the base for a heavy, but very sturdy, system. The sand was about $35 at our local Home Depot and the unit remained steady during some recent windy weather. A family poll yielded no negatives!"
+18294,2,love it.,I would buy this in every color if I could. I absolutely love it. It fits great and is so much more comfy then blankets. All winter babies need one!
+18295,1,Leaks!,"At first I enjoyed the product for its ability to produce hard boiled eggs. After a year it started leaking onto the counter. When I turned it on, all the water would leak out through the on-off switch."
+18296,2,Takes me back,"When I saw this was out there to rent I was so excited. I have been looking for this, for a long time. I used to love Mitch Gaylord. This took me back to seeing it at the movies. Acting is ok, and the soundtrac takes you back to the 80's. I do have to say being a female, this is a chick flick as people would say. But it is a good movie."
+18297,2,Love and Emotion,Hello: I feel only love and passion when i hear this man sing. Brings out the best in me.
+18298,1,Not a long lasting product,I bought this set 5 years ago and had to toss the pots and pans out today. The dark coating on the bottoms of the pans and pots is starting to come off and appears scratched. I never used metal spatulas or spoons when cooking. Also the finish on the outside of the pans and pots faded within one year. Very poor quality for the money.
+18299,2,Perfect beach read,"Like the first book in the series, I read this in less than 24 hours - couldn't put it down. Another fun, fast read!"
+18300,2,Does the job well,"Nothing earthshattering here but I do really like these doggie bags. They separately evenly, are large enough for huge BMs, and never ever break. They are nice and thick. The dispenser is genius and makes it easy to get another roll out, see how many are left and since there are so many, I'm not always ordering more. These last a good while and my dog goes 4-5 times a day!"
+18301,2,Exceptionally Amusing!,This amazingly funny book of Kathryn Mahoney really takes the cake for all comedic books I have read. This is a must-read for people of all ages.
+18302,2,A historical novel,"Written by a Georgian during the Soviet period this is a historical novel which covers the rise and fall of Georgian kings during the 13th Century.The author captures the sentiment of the Georgian people during that difficult time in their history when surrounded by powerful neighbours (The Mamaluks to the south, the Seljiq to the West, the Persians to the East and Russians to the North) They survive as a nation and people. It captures the multi-ethnic and multi religious nation where Islam and Christianity has strongly influenced the land.He described the trade between Georgia and the West, how the Georgians looked on in awe at the Venetian ships they traded with and also the political marital agreements they made with their powerful neighbours, sending off Georgian princesses to marry Mamaluk princes.The book goes on to describe the downfall of the Georgian kingdom, the Mongol invasion and the destruction of the Georgian people.Wonderful book, recomended."
+18303,2,Watch This With Everyone!,"I am so impressed with how elegantly this story has been told. A tragedy this overt carries enough drama, so I really appreciate the fact that Charlene and the director chose to take a more sophisticated approach, forgoing the predictable heart-string tugging for emotionally charged reality. Charlene is what I consider a hero of our time (and I never use that word lightly). She is unwaveringly telling the world that it is not acceptable to be cruel, and she is doing it with grace, strength and courage. She is a perfect example for us all."
+18304,2,A beautiful soundtrack,"Central Station soundtrack is as wonderful as the movie.It's a fundamental part of it. It's dramatic, touching and romantic. The movie wouldn't be so extraordinary without this beautiful soundtrack."
+18305,1,A Cliche Plagued First Novel,"The concept of an upper middle class white kid facing hard time had such potential for good, subtle tension and conflict. Unfortunately, in the hands of Mr. Benioff the story drags, hindered by cliche characters and jumbled prose. Uncle Blue, the drug supplying boss of the title characer, is a ridiculous caricature of a tough, flamboyant criminal. More of a cartoon than a real character, UNcle Blue's dialogue is painful to read. For modern noir realism and decent hardboiled writing stick to writers such as Peter Dexter and Johnathan Lethem."
+18306,1,Won't load on to a new computer using windows 7. I am so disappointed.,This will not load on my windows 7 laptop. I was so looking forward to using it. I want my money back......
+18307,2,A classic Elvis Pic,"I'm only 25 but I remember my father showing me this movie. I loved it from the start, it really is one of his best movies. I enjoyed it then and still do today. It's timeless. Unfortunatly, it's not available anymore to buy new so if you want it - it will cost you, but it's a good one to own and will only continue to be worth more and more. Another one of his greatest movies is Jail House Rock. You should definitly check it out."
+18308,2,A great pocket computer for a great price,"I looked at the Palms and the Handsprings but was unsure if I wanted to spend so much on something I wasn't totally sure I'd use. I happened to see the Casio at the store, asked about the return policy in case I hated it or it didn't work with my computer, was assured I could return it if needed, and decided to take the plunge. I got it home and within a few hours I was hooked. I'm not sure how I ever lived without this thing! I've already stored tons of schedules and address book info, and 4 or 5 excel worksheets and I've barely touched the memory capacity. The only problem I've run into is finding a nice case that fits comfortably, but that will be resolved eventually. I definitely recommend this handy little gadget!"
+18309,2,Classic Worship Songs,"A very good collection of Worship songs from the early days of Contemporary Christian music. Great orchestration and vocals. Most of these songs are still popular today, though they may have been updated in terms of rythym and style."
+18310,1,Disappointing,"""Drowning Ruth"" was a tightly knit novel peopled withwell-drawn sympathetic characters in a tale with an inventive,intriguing plot.""All is Vanity"" contains only [weak] characters, and a plot so slight as to be virtually nonexistent.The author has a gift for description of place and the knowledge of what goals drive individuals to exceed their reach. She certainly illustrates both the New York and California locales with valid, poignant and amusing anecdotes.In this book, we can only ask ""who cares?""Ms. Schwarz portrays two women, both of whom lack substance, sincerity, credibility and character.Sorry, but this novel is not worth your time spent in reading it."
+18311,1,"Great teaching aid, but not in the way Ben Stein intended...","I teach a class that includes logic and logical fallacies. This film is a wonderful teaching tool for me. From start to finish, it is a buffet of logical fallacies. My students are justifiably appalled at the film's obvious weaknesses, such as the film maker's failure to ever provide a single piece of evidence to support the case of intelligent design. The ad hominem association of evolution with the Nazi genocide is so over-the-top that it actually made my students, religious kids included, angry. Thank you, Ben Stein, for making a film so riddled with ignorance of science and fallacious claims -- you have unwittingly helped today's young people to be more vigilant in their examination of claims such as yours!On a personal note, I regret that I had to actually buy this film to use it as a teaching tool. Spending my own money on such laughable propaganda was painful, even when it serves my students well as a negative example!"
+18312,2,Mclane Edger,I must say that I agree with all the previous reviews. The edger engine starts on command but the throttle is a very poor design. Our cable broke after only several usages and I was fully aware of the issue prior to purchase so I was extra cautious. A new design is definitely needed.
+18313,1,COFFEE MAKER LEAKS,"I purchased this February of 2008, after 1 month it started leaking, I thought it was condensation, my counter top and floor in that area are ruined. DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT. I'm disappointed because it makes really good coffee and cappuccino. Waste of money."
+18314,1,Unacceptable for road bikes,"Caution, be aware this product requires you to REPLACE the skewer with their cheap supplied skewer. If you have invested in all high end components, this is not acceptable. Otherwise, you will be completely rebuilding your ride between indoor and outdoor (better not hope you get invited to a group ride the same day your bike is mounted on this piece of crap). Look for equipment that is more flexible in adjustment so that you truly have a quick in and out of the trainer."
+18315,2,cycling computer,"This cycling computer gives me what I want (cadence, speed, distance, average speed and average cadence) in a format that is easy to read and which is simple enough for me to understand. Price is low too, about $35. I expect a computer that gave altitude and temperature would be much more and be more confusing to scroll between functions"
+18316,2,The Pasta Reference,"This is a very comprehensive book, giving information about pasta shapes and coordinating sauces for them. I am very pleased witht the book."
+18317,1,"yet again, a horrid book about Kissinger","For once I'd like to see a scholar write a book about this man that is based on some primary source scholarship. Books based on newspaper clippings and speculation make for trashy books, not works of true scholarship. Really, don't bother with this book."
+18318,1,Good price but not sensitive enough,Purchased this mic at Walmart for a good price but had to return it because it wasn't sensitive enough. Used with a mixing input on boombox. Had to turn gain almost all the way up to get any usable signal.
+18319,2,helpful study guide,I used this book to prepare for the spec ed core content exam and did very well. At first I was not impressed with the book because there was only one practic exam and the book itself is very thin but it did give me direction for studying. I would have focused on the wrong stuff if I would have tried to study on my own.
+18320,2,Be Real! People Come on!!,"I hate how everyone just bags on talented Musicians. ok i had to get that out. I bought this cd When i heard time and time again on MVP Baseball 2004 and then i saw them in concert here in Arizona were they are from and let me tell you.. These guys are energetic as you can get. They put on such a good show that put chills down my back. Now I give the cd a 4 because most of the cd has good upbeat songs that are catchy and are fun to listen too. some of my favorites are shellshocked, Stop pretending, and Static on the Radio. Im a fan of Hawthorne Heights and more emo/screamo sound but i alos like old punk like Rancid, Lagwagon, Bouncing Souls and more but Chronic Future has a unique sound that i just like. Dont rag on these guys they work their asses off to get to were they are now and they are definately bringing in more money than u guys that rag on them. ok i recomend people to go buy this cd"

+18322,1,Don't waste your $$$$,"This CD is nothing like their first and second CD's. I know that everybody will want it because they heard ""Silly HO"" and ""No Scrubs"" and they thought they were tight, but those are the only good tracks on the entire album. I have bought the two previous CDs and judging by them I thought this was going to top them all, but I was definetly wrong. They must have just thrown this together to get some money. Please, don't waste your $$$!"
+18323,2,Fabulous,"An incredible CD. Absolutely the quintessential Hardy. My favourites are Comment Te Dire Adieu, Les Madeleines and of course Ma Jeunesse Fout Le Camp, while Si Mi Caballero showcases her wonderful voice.I first heard her music when I was a little girl in the 1960's. Of course then I only heard the English versions (""Only you can do it"" and ""If we are only friends""). However, when Hardy sings in her native French, there is no comparison. Listen to the French versions of her music which are by far superior to the English. I recently ""rediscovered"" Francoise Hardy and bought a bunch of her cd's. I have not been able to listen to anything else since."
+18324,2,Val shouldn't be lonesome!,"Val is a great performer and very good songwriter. You can certainly ignore the one star reviewer: he obviously just doesn't like this type of music, as you can tell by his comment about the Bar None catalog. I think the label had far better sense than this petulant, mean-spirited, close-minded ""reviewer."" He is right about one thing: if you don't like this kind of music, don't buy the album. Listen to the previews and decide for yourself. It's a shame she didn't get the breaks she deserved. Her absence is a great loss for anyone who can appreciate talent, not fads."
+18325,1,Dull,"Joseph Roth's `The Emperor's Tomb' is a curious work of nostalgia about the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian Empire and the reconstruction of modern Austria through the eyes of a single individual. Unfortunately, one gets the impression that Roth's prose never really gets through in translation as the English remains are often clunky and awkward. Additionally, the novel is filled with unremarkable scenes of peasant life which fail to capture any of the idealism that Roth was apparently striving for. We are left with dull flat characters and dull flat scenarios, often with clumsy marks of emphasis and detail. This may be the result of the fact that `Emperor's Tomb' is essentially a transitional work in Roth's epic quasi-trilogy. Nevertheless, a tremendously overrated novel."
+18326,1,"Ok, but sprung a leak after a short time","I live in the city where a trip to the car wash is about $14 ... plus I drive a vintage BMW convertible. Since there's a hose attachment in front of my apartment building, this seemed like the perfect solution. The hose worked great for the first two times I used it. But somehow it sprung a leak at the nozzle connection. On a warm day, when I don't mind getting sprayed, while cleaning my car, the hose is fine. In reality, this should not have happened, so I'll have to advise others against this product."
+18327,1,Doesn't work at all,"I got this item to try and train my dogs to stop barking when friends come over to the house. I don't mind them barking to let me know someone is here but once I know who it is or that there's no danger, I want them to stop. This device did NOTHING for either dog (7 year old lab, 1 year old shepherd). They did seem to hear it as their ears twitched a little, but it wasn't strong enough to really get their attention. I don't think this would work if a pit bull ran up to you, either! Don't waste your money on this."

+18330,2,Satisfied,I am very satisfied with this project. I bought it for the study I was doing at my church. I could pay via credit card instead of cash through the bible study group. The book came on time and in great condition. The book itself is very informative like most of Beth Moore studies. I would recommend the book and the study to anyone interested in learning more about the holy spirit even if you are a well read christian like myself because Beth Moore gathers information from all around the bible and seeing the verses together help you to read it and understand the concept in a whole new way.
+18331,1,Another delivery with wrong side panel!,"Like another customer, we received two identical side panels instead of A and B. Should be mirror images, but both were identical. Could not assemble...not a minor detail!!! Otherwise item appeared to be of decent quality and finish was what we wanted and expected. Because I get free shipping with a Prime item, because I am a very satisfied Amazon customer (with this one exception), and because there is still enough time to receive another and assemble it before Christmas when our granddaughter arrives, we are going to try again hoping the next one will be correct. From what other reviewers said, it appears that most were pleased with the product and did not have our problem. Crossing our fingers in CA!"
+18332,2,Great regional work,I know this area very well and was very excited to see a novel set here. The book doesn't disappoint. Logue is a polished writer. The story was suspenseful. What intrigued me most was the Prologue--a glimpse at true evil. A great read!

+18334,2,Breathtaking. That's all I can say.,"For years I monitered the progress of this band. I watched as they grew and changed. They never failed to amaze me. I always wondered what it would be like to hear a grindcore band with true musical and artistic understanding...a band that could play tightly with structure while still capturing the madness of the brand. Jerome's Dream turned out being that band. The ultimate fusion of free jazz, avant-garde and grindcore. This double disc set translates the bands journey. Their rise and fall. Awesome unreleased tracks that prior to this album were very hard to find. I couldn't be more happy with this release. Great idea. Great band. A must have. Five stars hand down. Bravo my friends. Bravo."

+18337,2,If you like curry...,"I agree that the curry is very dominating in this chocolate bar but then again, I love curry. I first came upon this bar at Whole Foods. They had a little sample table set up and I normally don't buy chocolate so I just walked by but I overheard the woman at the table say coconut curry and I ran over to see what they were talking about. I tasted the bar and my eyes rolled into my head. For me, this is the best mixture of tastes. I even told the woman at the table that this is by far the best chocolate bar I've ever had. The coconut is not a prominent flavor it is so mild that I don't taste it much if at all. The grittiness that someone mentioned, I believe, is the coconut so it adds more texture than taste in my opinion. This is not a mild bar with just a hint of flavor so if you are not a curry fan, this most likely isn't for you."

+18339,1,"Let down, expected more","After reading reviews of Eleanor Rushing, I at least expected an entertaining book. What I found was an underdeveloped tale of an unbelievable, one-sided love affair. The plot did not flow well and rather than being amused by Eleanor's ""charm"" I was irritated by her actions that seemed to come out of nowhere. I was at least hoping for a flavorful account of New Orleans, since that is where the story takes place, but even the use of the city's institutions and landmarks detracted rather than enhanced the story."

+18345,1,Expected so much more!,"I love Sophie Kinsella's books and thought I would enjoy one with her as Madeleine Wickham, but this was just not even close to the quality I was expecting from her. I found myself quickly skimming just to get to the end and call it a day. It was not a ""page-turner"" in a positive sense of the phrase. I did not feel attached to any particular characters. The plot jumped around which made certain excerpts seem pointless to the storyline. The nanny was just downright annoying. I'm all for characters you love to hate, but there was no love here. The whole reason behind the two families getting stuck at the same villa was stupid. I was hoping for a clever reason behind it all, but I was extremely let down."

+18350,1,"The ""Andrew Dice Clay"" of political thought","This pains me to say this but... this is not a very good book. The major problem with Savage's arguments are that they're based on adrenaline and angst instead of facts that work. When he does make points that are true and accurate, they are usually so over-the-top and bombastic that it makes him seem uncredible. Not everyone that is conservative is this macho and what his book does is make the conservative movement look more angry than it actually is.If you are into books from talkshow hosts, get Hannity, get Limbaugh, get Marvin, skip Savage. He is the ""Andrew Dice Clay"" of political thought."
+18351,1,Disappointing & Superficial,"I had higher hopes for this one. In actuality it is a highly superficially written book, which, except for the major story of Dogon's cosmology, contains little material analysis and argumentation for the main hypothesis offered. Especially the word ""scientific"" seems to be highly out of place in the title. If you like Hancock's writing, or similar paleo-archaeology stuff, this book will bring you quite some disappointment."
+18352,1,Disappointing,"Gergen's book is awash with name-dropping, inside baseball, and self-serving reminders of his proximity to power and his influence,,,although the evidence of whether any of the truly powerful accepted his advice or were influenced by him in any meaningful way is scanty. In my judgment, it has been his willingness to pander which has made him a ""bi-partisan"" figure, rather than true intellect or political savvy (a la Moynihan).I find the book to be the same as the man,,,narcissistic and full of self-promotion. There are much better views inside Washinton."

+18355,2,"Good overall, but some out of date information","This is one of the best books for hikes in LA County. It covers a wide variety of locations, including Catalina Island, the Santa Monica Mountains, and the San Gabriel Mountains. Unfortunately, information on some of the hikes is out of date. Clearly, this is always a problem with books on hiking trails since conditions do change, but it seems that the description of the hike from Vincent Gap to East Fork along the San Gabriel River is particularly out of date. According to the book, this 14 mile downhill hike will take 9 hours. Given the extreme deterioration of the trail, it will be difficult for even an experienced hiker to complete it in less than 14 hours. It seems unlikely that this deterioration has taken place in the short time since the book was published."
+18356,1,not framed well AT ALL,"I was pretty disappointed upon receiving this. The poster inside the frame had multiple bends and creases which are easily visible and create glares, as if the framing process was rushed and done carelessly.

+18357,1,Needs a Revised Design,"I have a hard time finding shoes that fit with my high arches. I hesitate to order tennis shoes because most of them are poorly designed -- they are designed to kill your ankles, rub them raw when walking, and damage your achilles tendon. This shoe is just another example: my ankle has been rubbed raw with just a 1 mile walk. I would walk 2.5 to 3 miles, but the pain on the ankle and achilles tendon prevent that.This shoe is parially made in the US and partially made in China -- let's get shoes made in wholly in the US."
+18358,2,Stunning!,"Such a beautiful book--I bought this book less for practical instruction and more for inspiration, and I was not disappointed. The arrangements are lush, elegant, classic with a twist. This is truly floral art. There are practical suggestions, and information about each of the flowers used is listed at the end of each section.I'm not sure how useful this book is for the novice (such as myself) but it offers beauty and inspiration, regardless of skill level."
+18359,2,Insightful and accessible.,"It is hard to find a book that is both accessible (easy to read) and insightful on the subject of our economy. Froehlich has a way of breaking down complex market ideas and presenting them in simple, useful terms. I have seen him on TV talking about his Boomernomics theme, and that's what made me buy the book - I was not disappointed. The theme has helped me plan for my financial future by giving me a better understanding of the stock market and the impact of public policy on small investors like me."
+18360,2,Great inexpensive headphones,"These are great classic ""cans"". I've had them for a month and started using them after a few days burn-in when these V6s were plugged in 24/7 to a receiver in another room at upper moderate volume level. And this is what I would recommend to everyone before evaluating their sound - play them non-stop for about 100 hours without listening and then you will start to hear their best.They fit my large head perfectly and sound lovely. Bass goes low down to 5Hz but it's not boomy or distorted or overbearing in any way. From a good recording all you hear is a clean low punch.The only one thing I would improve is the vinyl ear surrounds. I might get a pair ofblack cotton baby head bandsto wrap around the vinyl donuts.If you get them for around sixty shipped, then it's a good deal."
+18361,2,Wonderful Book about a little known woman!,"I've been doing a lot of reading lately about the time just before and after of the Great War, the War to End All Wars: World War 1.In doing so, I read a lot about Louise Bryant, who is usually a footnote in the life of John Reid. This was a well-written and interesting book that allows for understanding the real Louise Bryant and what made her tick. She was a woman ahead of her time and unfortunately, the injustice she receives because of that, creates many demons that she tried to overcome by alcohol and affairs."

+18370,2,A NEW BEGINING...,"This album is by far the best album I have ever heard to date... The moody sound acoustics, the complex orchestration, the deep and emotional lyrics creates a masterpiece beyond my most vivid imagination. Just listen to it! and try to get it's deeper meanings. The entire composition as a whole sounds power and depth through it's moody, dark and apocalyptic design that is a new begining for the group and the genre itself. It is not ""light"" or meant for partying drowned out by peoples gurgling sounds and the sounds of people cotching on the floor from having to much cheap wine -NO, you cannot compare it to the likes of ""Major icons"" like Madonna or Michael Jackson -their music is centred on fun, shallow -happy-go-lucky music providing for a general conscencus. This album dominates completely in it's complexity, intellectuality and power."
+18371,2,Some of Gallagher's Best Work.,"I completely disagree with the other reviewers of this show. This is some of Gallagher's most elaborate staging, most inventive and imaginative use of props, and by far the extravagant spending of money to make people laugh. Gallagher really did go Overboard when he did this one. The whole show is based around taking it easy, enjoying the ocean and beach, checking out sexy babes, watching out for seagulls and flying Killer whales, etc. The whole show is just plain Fun!!!"

I did not know, due to lack of reasearch on my part that this doll will not do crap if you hook it up to a computer that is running windows newer than 1995....not even with vista. Newer windows systems can not open files. So I just have a really strange looking doll until I can get a computer that runs windows 95...so not worth it."
+18373,1,sensitive American's enter at your own risk,"This book's sole purpose appears to be a venue for Mr LeCarre to vent his anti-American anti-Bush and Blair feelings. In doing so, he creates the dynamic duo of Teddy and Sasha, lovable and sympathetic characters, but in today's real world they would probably be considered ""losers"". Their ideology is certainly no more noble than that which LeCarre finds so contemptuous in the Bush administration. And the ending was unbelievable - at best. Shame on Mr LeCarre for wasting his great talents and imposing his personal views on loyal fans. This reader would have loved a few hours respite from a subject so well-worn."

+18376,2,Interesting and valuable read,"This book is very well-written and easily comprehensible, even if it is quite basic. Readers looking for anything but a pretty simplistic overview of investing basics will be disappointed. This fundamental approach to investing, of course, is precisely what is advocated by Mr. Bogle and the legions of Bogleheads. The latter 1/3 of the book also gives extremely brief overviews of a myriad of other financial topics, from life insurance to wills and trusts. These brief overviews do not contain enough information to be very useful, but it's a good introduction to the concepts. Overall I do believe that I am a wiser investor after having read this book. Recommended."

+18378,2,Action with fun,"Just as the song goes, ""Night and day, you are the one."" Cruise and Diaz are the ones. These two pros were having fun doing this movie and even though the story was not exactly unique I had fun watching it. I hate using the word ""chemistry"" because it is so abused but it is obvious that these two are friends having a good time working together and it comes across with this fast paced story photographed in beautiful places. Everyone did their job from writer, director, actors and the support team with a gold star going to Diaz and Cruise who put it across. Worth every penny. It is a good and entertaining time. That is the point, isn't it?!"
+18379,1,Didn't like it,"I was forced to read this book a few years ago in school. I hated it. It was extremely boring, long and repetitive. If you like books about surviving with only a hatchet, well I guess you'll like this book."
+18380,2,The Artist in his Studio,"This is a wonderful book full of extraordinary photos of artists and Lieberman's accounts of his meetings with them. They almost leap out of the pages at you because he brings them so much alive, both in his anecdotes and his pictures. I don't know any other book which makes me feel that I know these talented people, as if I had just met them, and I keep going back into the book to meet them again. A really good present for any artist or art lover."
+18381,2,Nice upgrade,"Definitely a big improvement from the iPod standard issue. I like the distinguishable bass, audio separation, and clear vocals that come through.I have a little trouble keeping them lodged in my ear canals. I find myself pushing them securely back in within 15 minutes of inserting, then repeating this. Not sure if I just don't have a good fit, if I'm not inserting them correctly, or if it's a problem with the buds.The quirk with these I found is if I'm running along and it's windy, there is a very annoying ""whoosh"" sound that comes over my ears. I may experiment with some kind of headband or something.Bottom line, I like them, they look good, they are a good value, but there are a few annoyances I'm trying to work through."

+18385,1,Not a horror movie,"This was packaged and advertised as a horror movie, but it really isn't. A modern day family is given a warning by a ghost from the past through a long and tedious flashback of bad events that happened centuries ago."
+18386,1,BORING,This album wasn't very good. The riffs are usually pretty slow and there are a few of fillers which are nothing but cheap tribal drum music.if you want fast death metal try ENTOMBED if you want melodic death metal try ARCH ENEMY but dont buy this album unless you are a big morbid angel fan
+18387,1,Terrible Pictures,"My 4 year old daughter received this camera for Christmas. While it is easy for her to use and very durable, the pictures are just TERRIBLE. The quality and the focus is awful. It is too bad, because I really enjoy seeing what she thinks is important to take a picture of -- but barely any of them are of good enough quality to save or print. I'd rather buy a slightly better, but less durable camera and just teach her to be careful. I almost never write reviews, but the functionality of this camera is such a disappointment, I felt I needed to let people know."
+18388,2,A SUPER ADDITION TO OUR PANTRY!,"This sauce was highly recommended by Roger Ebert in his recent cookbook, which caught our interest. If memory serves he recommended this for both his rice dishes and steaks......We'd recommend it for almost anything!We were very spare with it the first time we tried it on a cut of meat because of the name ""Exotic."" However, it's not at all hot or tangy. but rather a delicious blend of fruit and spices (especially tasty on chicken, we've found).- Gail Cooke"

Out of curiosity I got a copy of the self-pubbed book to read and compare. I loved both!

+18391,1,Archangel Pretty Dull!,"Nothing much happens in this futuristic cyber society. Cyber angels stalk the LINK (a futuristic version of the internet) while real angels inhabit human bodies and skulk around in pseudo-spy fashion. It captured my interest at first, but quickly went nowhere. I'm a bit disapointed because angels should make for a great subject in fiction but so far no one had been able to hit a high mark. The writing is good, the characters are interesting...I just wanted some plot. This had great potential but never reached the heights."
+18392,1,Not your feel good bears of past.,"I'm not too surprised that they are not the same care bears of the past, but they could have at least tried. These bears are smaller than the original and are made of a hard plastic. The feel of them is not enticing to my 3 yr old. Their arms and legs do not move, and I'm still trying to figure out the point of the stars on the clouds. The cloud that moves with the bear on it squeaks as it rolls and the umbrella doesn't move unless you move it with your hand. It has gone straight to the ""I don't want to play with it bucket."""
+18393,1,Wil eventually work,"Have yet to actually see this work yet. I have had issues with the computer I bought this for, so it hasn't worked yet. I installed it on my new computer, and it ""shows"" that it's working, but no through-put yet. Reinstalled the old D-link 10/100 and it works fine. Have not had a lot of time to work it through yet, but I'm sure it will. Troubleshooting guide on the disk will most definitely help much more than the ""online help menu"", since this gadget really needs to be working to get you to the ""online help menu to start with."
+18394,2,great pricing,The ink pack came in a plain carton box which is fine. Each individual cartridge was factory sealed as same as the one in store with fancy printed packages.
+18395,2,Too Good To Let Go,"I discovered Frente 11 years ago on a pay per video channel called ""The Box"". After seeing the video for labour of love, I fell in love and demanded that my mother buy it for me. Eleven years and I've moved six times, the cd still remains in my possession. This cd is definitely one of my prized possessions!!"
+18396,2,Outstanding,"A superior book written by a superior writer with a superior style, about a man honest about his unique life. Massimo Gargia has the guts to tell people about everything he has done. Very captivating book and very entertaining."
+18397,2,A stellar experience,"The musicians did a fine job on this 1978 album. The strings towards the end of ""Perfect Love Affair"" are heavenly, and Ray Mang sampled that section for his 2002 song ""Orchestral Manoeuvres"". My favorite part of ""Cosmic Melody"" is the string portion that follows the playing of bell keyboards. The best song on the album is ""Funk Encounter"", a very catchy track which is perfect from start to finish."
+18398,1,VERY BAD!,"As much as I hate this ersatz manufactured group of musical ""Wannabes,"" the only good thing that can be said about them is that many girls feel better about themselves.Spice Girls. Some example. They can't sing, dance, act, play any instruments, compose or deliver lines. They are just a musical farce. Detractors of the original quintet have dubbed them Nasty Spice, Rancid, Rotten, Stinky and Stupid. Old Spices belong in the cupboard or down the drain after a certain amount of time has elapsed. These women belong down the drain!"
+18399,1,bad game,"Well, I rented this game after looking at all these great reviews. I don't understand why this game is getting such good reviews from everyone else. It's horrible. Music = bad. Control = bad. If you want to buy a real game, buy Virtual Pool 2 for your PC... it's much, much better. Skip out on this one. Or do what I did, rent it and find out for yourself."
+18400,1,Poor build quality / low performance,"Arrived with two casters loose and all front panel button jammed 'on' - they are still jammed on; not a big problem as this is how I want to use the machine, but would be problem for others.Not particulary effective either - expensive for delivered performance and build quality."
+18401,1,This Cot is Aweful,This cot has a support stiffness that is in the material running through the center like where the child's waist would be. It sticks up higher than the top and bottom of the bed so it is very uncomfortable if the child is lying on their back. I'm going to find another cot.
+18402,1,Poor fiction,"This is a Mel Gibson thriller with a, yet again, US government as villain theme. I wondered when the villainous US Senator is described as a Massachusetts Republican, a phenomenon not seen in Massachusetts politics until Scott Brown won the ""Kennedy seat"" last year. The story is weak although there are lots of people shot. The story is not up to the standards of similar fare. Avoid it unless you want another Hollywood slur on the left's enemies."
+18403,2,Comfort food and reading...,"The recipes in ""The Country Gourmet"" spin a tale of comfort as well as good eats. The remembrances of the author's mama and her love of food and life does more than feed the reader's soul, it gives the reader hope that there is truly more to life than getting out of bed each day; there are wonderful dishes to prepare and delicious people to get to know and break bread together with. TWO THUMBS way up for this amazingly inspiring cookbook/biography chronicling a daughter's love for her mother and her mother's cooking."
+18404,2,"If you rated this below 5 stars, you're obviously missing the point...","I've been a Linkin Park fan for about 6 years and I admit, wasn't expecting much when I picked up this CD in early '03. Boy was I wrong, every song on this CD could most definitely be a single. While I absolutely despise radio and all it represents (except for Howard Stern...), I understand why a band would want their album to be radio-friendly (it sells a lot more records...). When I heard ""Somewhere I Belong"", like most people, I admit, I didn't like it. But I thought, hell, I loved Hybrid Theory, and it's Linkin Park, I should pick it up. (I know there are a lot of Reanimation fans, sorry guys, wasn't into it, if I wanted to listen to techno I would go to a dance club...) I was aching for new Linkin Park when this came out, I wasn't disappointed, I own over 300 CDs and I still listen to this one. If you haven't picked it up, and you are Linkin Park fan, you're insane, it is soooooooo much better than Hybrid Theory."
+18405,1,Out of stock for weeks,"I keep getting new updates with ""still out of stock"" notices. You can get them from Home Depot, same price, also free shipping, they have them in stock. A lot of other suppliers also seem to have them drop-shipped from the manufacturer, so took a while to find a place that actually kept them in inventory."
+18406,2,Good Glass - Great Set,"These are really nice, but I gave it a 4 instead of 5 because they aren't perfect for the price/quality. Nice size, but the proportions are a little off. We have tons of Marquis by Waterford and LOVE all the stemware. These are nice because they go with the set. I highly recommend them for water and have heard the actual water glasses break very easily."
+18407,2,No Time to Sew,"No Time to Sew is meant to accompany the Rodale Designer Collection (1997) of sewing patterns and provides the sewing instructions that are absent from the actual envelope of patterns. The book itself doesn't provide patterns, but, in addition to the sewing instructions for the Rodale Designer Collection, gives lots of useful advice on how to achive the best results when making a wardrobe (how to choose the right fabrics, colors, coordinate fabics, even how to set up an efficient sewing room). The intent behind the book and companion sewing patterns is to help women of any figure type to make a comfortable and flattering wardrobe."
+18408,1,GREEN CHEETOS,Please dont trick yourself into thinking these are anything like snap peas. They are green cheetos. If you like greasy fatty corn y cheesy cheetos then send yourself into any early grave with these green ones! You will pack on the pounds with this high fat high refined food. If you too are dissappointed with this product you may be looking for roasted green peas. Those are actually whole peas. Or just go to the produce section of your grocer and buy a pack of fresh snap peas!!!
+18409,2,You will mean every word of this when you read it to your children....,"Reinforces the unconditional love between a parent and a child in a cute little rhyme. There have been times when my own kids have gone through one of the same things this kiddo goes through, and I quote part of the poem to them---for example ""I love the way you act so brave when you fall and hurt your knee"" or ""and even though it may not show, i love you when you're bad."" My kids love it, and I mean every word when I read it to them."
+18410,2,Just what I wanted,"I was hesitant to replace my old pocket leatherman, as I'd grown to love the scissor main tool, but already I've found multiple uses for the pliers in this model. Great tool, glad I got it."
+18411,2,"Great, low-impact workout","While perhaps not for the absolute beginner, this yoga sequence is definitely an excellent way to get a solid upper body and back workout in a short space of time."
+18412,2,"It's not ""Dust In the Wind""","I read the review of this cd in Rolling Stone 10/03/02 so I bought it. It is great stuff...somewhat different than the Kansas we know, but similar enough that Kansas fans will like it. Much more ""british"" sounding than the Kansas US Rock n' Roll music. Prog fans will really like this one!"
+18413,2,Warren G's new Cd is great,"I bought this cd the first day it came out. At fisrt I didn't like it. The next day I listened to it again. I loved it. This cd is awesome. It has way more of Warren G than Rtrn of the Reg. Snoop and Nate Dogg were also really good on this cd. You just have to give this cd some time. The beats are weird on some of the tracks, like they weren't put together right. Otherwise, than about two tracks the songs are excellent."
+18414,1,Great German Recipes,Contains the most popular German recipes. Recipes seem to be consistent but instructions are not detailed. Probably would not have purchased the book if I had seen it beforehand.
+18415,1,Too hot to handle,"I decided to buy the frying pans based on very positive information from someone that had used them. I thought since I was getting the pans I might as well get the lids. What a mistake, the knob on the top became too hot to handle after just being on the pan for a few minutes. This was the last thing I expected from such high priced cookware. I really regret my purchase."
+18416,1,"only works well on the ""perfect"" produce","Do not use on potatoes! Unless they are perfectly proportioned, you will end up with a very tiny result once the peel is removed. I read the other reviews on adjusting the device, but every time we ended up very poor results."
+18417,1,'FLY' Was Better...,"Well, when I first put this disc into my player, I was expecting the same sounds as FLY. Nope. This album is not very good. It's not like the fun,bouncy, and party-like country hits on their last album. I would have to say the only songs I like are 'Landslide', and 'White Trash Wedding'. I highly anticipated this album and was highly disappointed. Well, 'HOME' is going to be in my next yard sale."
+18418,2,Some Heads Are Gonna Roll!,This was out when I was in High School and it was great then and even better now. Love the Re-master.
+18419,2,Very comprehensive book,"Wow, a very comprehensive book, utterly well researched from a physician that is what every physician should be: interested in curing the cause of the problem not just covering up the symptoms. I have learned a lot. Complete with great recipes to help you boost your mood."
+18420,2,strong story for those who hate insipid romances!,"Fantastic book! Five stars and above. Well-developed characters; a strong plot, some heart-stopping moments, a predictable yet strong ending. Recommended!"
+18421,1,Poor recording quality,"This is a poorly done album. Buckethead jams on guitar and bass with a phenominal keyboardist and simple, methodical drummer on a bunch of tracks. Likely done in one to two takes each with little or no mastering. The tracks are then titled so that one would think the album had a point. If you want a backlog of buckethead material, this album will give you that. He still is certainly no slouch on guitar and that will be shown on this album. A bit more on the bluesy side than metal. No speed metal at all. I don't feel bad for owning it, but I wouldn't have bought it if I knew what was on it before hand. Worth about five dollars. Then I'd buy it."
+18422,2,I love UGG,These are beyond comfortable. Love them! And they last forever (this is my second pair). Highly recommend these for everyone
+18423,1,Forget it.,"Terrible. I could barely understand anything, and I deleted it from my Kindle before I got through the 1st chapter. If looking for entertainment, I suggest the movie."
+18424,1,Calphalon should be ashamed...,"Calphalon should be ashamed to lend name to this product. I have owned other Calphalons. Thinking this would be the same, but boy was I wrong. From construction, to how long long it lasts, you name it, it's just bad. It's really a cheap product with the Calphalon name. Stay away from ""Simply Calphalon""."
+18425,2,Wonderful Product,"I bought these so I could make my own hamburger buns, and the result is fantastic! Now, instead of the buns spreading a little as they bake, they get all the rise they should!The only downside is how easily these rust if you don't get them COMPLETELY dry.LOVE THEM!"
+18426,1,Breakthrough on the new skis,"I anticipated this book to be a modern, thorough, substantial, instruction on skiing on the new shaped skis.Unfortunately I found Tejada-flores book to be a bunch of repetitive fluff. It is basically a rehash of the same material that has been covered previously. It took him approximately 62 pages to pronounce you should weight the outside ski to initiate a turn. How revolutionary! I was waiting for him to say you should point your skis downhill to go.The illustrations are great if you like pictures of the author. The diagrams are confusing.I suggest putting the money toward a lesson as this book is worthless."
+18427,1,What Happened THQ?,"You guys used to be off the chain man and now look, what the hell happened here? First we get all 5 successes for the past 5 games and now this is like a new beggining again or something! I have no clue why this game had to be released, but I'll be damned if they make another game with the same damn features again that're dopey! Don't get this disasterpiece, its a waste of gametime!"
+18428,2,Fantastic Collection,"Tori Amos Video Collection,together on dvd for the first time.The only omissions from her back catalogue of videos are the treatments for ""Glory of the 80s"" and ""Strange Little Girl"".A huge bonus is the video commentary by Tori herself,which only enhances the experience,adding extra layers and facets.A wonderful value,this is a must for any fan of Tori Amos."
+18429,2,High quality and very useful lens,"This is a fantastic lens, as everyone else here has already said. It's too bad that it's not a little faster at 22mm, but that's only a minor issue. At the wide end (10mm), you'll definitely get some fisheye effect, but this can play very well if you know how to use it.If you're looking for a very distinct fisheye look, consider the Canon 15mm fisheye, which is also a great piece of glass.Canon EF 15mm f/2.8 Fisheye Lens for Canon SLR Cameras"
+18430,1,"A Conceited film, totally disapointing","This film FAILS because of the 'perfume ad' vision of the director, a poor story (novel) which the director changed out of all recognition, and actors who completed it (in the director's words) in just 21 days.Colin Firth plays himself TOTALLY, not a gay man; Julianne Moore does her best 'Belle Watling', the FEW other characters are transparent to the extent that the best performance is by the dog!In a series of confusing flashbacks all the actual 'action' (lethargic as it is) takes place in 24 hours. The only change of visual pace includes scenes of 'death in snow' and 'almost drowning', and a fire-red sky owing much to 'Fargo', 'The Piano' and 'Gone with the wind'.As for the music, it's pretentious, saccharin sentimental, and more suited to Anna Karenina than a film set in California in 1962!Don't waste your money.A Single Man"
+18431,1,Embaressing,"Note to the studios and the powers that be that financed this piece of trash:Find another line of work that has nothing to do with animation, animals, music, entertainment industry or any path that might inadvertantly cross those of us who paid to see your lack of talent, concern or what passes off to some as ""ability.""To everyone else:Do not see, pay or even think about this movie."
+18432,1,See Through Tiles,"You can totally see through my tiles. I bought mine a couple of years ago. Model number on box says, 04623. Looks to me like there was a bad batch of them made. When I was younger, I had one that was fine.The game is fun, reasonably priced, and educational for the kids as well.I like it because it doesn't take long to play, and several people can all get a turn within an hour.I have written to Hasbro regarding the tiles. Not sure why I waited 2 years to do so, but hopefully they will make good on this problem."
+18433,2,Makes Tummy Time longer,"My 4 month old son is still not the biggest fan of tummy time, but this does seem to keep him there longer. I haven't had any problems with it leaking, and I like the frogs that stand up, it gives him a reason to lift up his head and look at them."
+18434,1,Not happy at all. The damn thing would run more than 15 seconds,This movie wouldn't run more than 15 seconds without buffering. It took nearly 3 hours to watch it! I couldn't even download it after starting it.Don't rent this!
+18435,2,Why On This Night? Review,"This is an outstanding haggadah. I will use many of the ideas at my seder this year. Adults and children can learn a great deal about Passover by reading the detailed, yet very clear and simple explanations about the traditions, seder items, etc. The author also includes many interesting perspectives on the different parts of the seder."
+18436,2,Exceptional historical novel.,"The ""autobiography"" of the Vampire Pandora, who has appeared in ""The Vampire Lestat"" and ""Queen of the Damned"" as a minor character, is a fascinating look at the life of a woman in ancient Rome. It bears some stylistic similarities, and some similarities of plot and character, to the ""Cynthia, Witch of Syracuse"" stories of Dorothy J. Heydt that appear in Marion Zimmer Bradley's ""Sword and Sorceress"" series, but it is hardly derivative. There are also some similarities between the character of Pandora and that of Olivia, Chelsea Quinn Yarbro's vampiric ""childe"" of Saint Germain. This book is delightfully well-written, and is a pleasure to read on many levels: powerfully moving story, interesting historical perspective, compelling philosophical insights, and fascinating characters. One of Anne Rice's best-written vampire novels."
+18437,2,Great Find!,I got this one for $1.00 and I loved this movie-Joe and Loni are hot! It kept me guessing until the end and then I thought I knew who did it--surprise!!!!This movie is DEFINITELY worth the price it is going for on Amazon!!
+18438,1,"OK if you want a cheap blender, but you get what you pay for","I bought this blender a couple of years ago, and still use it because its all I've got. I want to upgrade! I use it about once every 2 weeks. It is fine for the most basic uses, but honestly all those buttons are joke - horrible to keep clean, and there is no difference between any of the speeds. And the food doesn't drop down properly, only the stuff at the bottom gets blended. And if there isn't lots of liquid in there, it doesn't blend at all. I would not recommend it to anyone."
+18439,2,Worked for me!,"At the point that I went to Sol's talk I had been comfortably single for three years and concerned that at age 49 I was calling it quits. Mr. Gordon said things I'd heard before and ignored. This time really motivated I really listened. I bought five of his books and read, no studied ANOTHER CHANCE FOR LOVE and internalized some really key points. I changed all the things that had not worked in the past, asked friends to be my allies and look out for me, went into a relationship with deep friendship in mind (friend suggested this guy),did NOT get physically involved until he proposed (the friendship was able to blossom without getting all foggy as stated in the book). Without the help, guidance of Sol's book it is doubtful that I would have ever been able to find my way into a committed relationship. I want all my deserving single friends out there to find solid partnerships based in respect, mutuality and love. A great starting point is this book."
+18440,1,not the greatest,"My husband tried this and I had to return this to Amazon, every time he tried to use it.. the horn part would twist around and it would collapse. I had no problem with returning it."
+18441,1,disappointed,"I have been very impressed by other ""pickin on"" music: Lynyrd Skynyrd, Led Zep, Santana, to name a few I have. However, Hendrix music did not translate well at all into the bluegrass style, it was a great disappointment, and this is one CD I will get rid of quickly."
+18442,1,Useless - do not buy,"I bought this product thinking it would be good to use over paper postage labels printed off my laser printer. Apparently using regular shipping tape can throw off the bar code readers USPS, UPS and FedEx use due to the shiny nature of the tape. The idea is that because this tape has a matte finish, the bar code readers can read through it without the reflective interference shiny tape would create. Each time I would try to pull a piece of this tape off it would split down the middle and I'd have an uneven piece of tape. It's also very hard to apply this tape to a label without the tape bubbling up and obscuring the bar code. I figured I must be doing something wrong...3M products are usually of excellent quality. This product, however, is a waste. I threw the full roll away."
+18443,2,Marriage savior!,"I snore and I snore loud! My wife is ready to kill me every night. Someone recommended that we try a white noise machine. I bought this one since it was the original and so far, she barely notices that I snore with this thing on. Now the snoring needs to stop but in the meantime, maybe she'll get some much needed rest."
+18444,1,I have used this calculator before but would not buy it from this supplier.,I have bought and used this calculator before but not from this supplier. I was traveling went it arrived so I didn't open the package for a month. When I did open the calculator didn't work and when I contacted the supplier they said it was two late. I was 3 days after the cut off. I would never buy from these people again.
+18445,1,"Not Bad, Not Excellent","Saw this book in the bookstore the other day. Read the dust jacket. Looked pretty good, so I read the whole book. Just finished last night. Here are my two cents.I'd say the book is not bad but not excellent. Good content in some parts, hampered by poor writing. what can you expect from a tech guy 'come author i guess :)! book has got stuff that other books don't have, so it might be worth a perusal. But i agree with some of the other reviewers that the book is a bit boring. Coulda' used an good editing job."
+18446,1,Worst video quality I've ever seen in a DVD,"I'm not sure whether the person who says ""disregard negative reviews"" is doing anyone a favour - because a lot of what's been said to date here about the poor video is negative but very accurate. I love Peter Gabriel - I have all his albums and had this DVD on VHS previously. I bought this DVD along with Growing Up in the weekend. Growing Up is superb video quality whereas Secret World Live is the worst and grainest music DVD I've ever seen. I have a very good quality TV set and hundreds of music DVDs so my comments are most certainly not to do with equipment or operator error. The sound quality is superb though and as a result you can tolerate the bad video for the amazing sound. It rocks in DTS! Its sad that such poor video quality (and one which boasts of being remastered!) is out there and I'm sure the artist himself did not know about this before it was released. Someone of PGs status deserves only the best."
+18447,1,couldn't get into it,"I remember watching ""The Women of Brewster Place"" in high school, and being drawn into that world. That is what I expected from Gloria Naylor when reading ""Bailey's Cafe."" Bailey's Cafe is about a black couple, who owns a ""magical"" cafe. I was expecting to be swept away. Instead, I find myself bored to tears. Naylor spends pages upon pages describing such mundane details as war, the black experience, and baseball. Where she could use some help is in painting a picture. Each character is given the opportunity to explain who they are, but do we really care? I didn't, because the author spends pages upon pages describing details without taking the story anywhere. Take a risk. Although I didn't agree with everything in ""The Women of Brewster Place,"" that world stayed in my head long after I was finished. ""Bailey's Cafe"" is forgottable. I'm giving her two stars for effort, but I cannot recommend this boring, preachy novel."
+18448,1,New Houses:36 of the World's Most Spectacular Home Designs,This book should not be bought.... I buy and study lots of books like this one and this books offers nothing and is poorly done.
+18449,2,Great 6 seater,"Bought this bench for use by the soccer team - so great~ folds down to such a small space, and all subs are able to sit on the bench and actually watch the action. Highly recommended! Comes in lots of colors to support the team!"
+18450,1,A Home Movie To Bore You To Tears,"If you're thinking of buying this ""home"" movie, do yourself a favor and don't buy it. I'm sure there are plenty of trash bins in your area where you can find a copy, close to new. If I could give it no stars, I would. It's like a home movie with constant chatter, and if you like watching a drama queen in action, you'll love it.This movie got a lot of publicity and with Anne Hathaway in it, I thought it would be good. Tricked again. Don't you be."
+18451,1,A Mediocre war movie not a game,if you wana watch a less than fine war movie then get this game or even rent a movie but if you think you can play you are totally mistaken coz when i say this a game i do play my part in that game so watch it
+18452,1,Go to Home Depot instead,"The price for this piece of Masonite is ridiculous. Go to Home Depot and get a piece of 1/4"" plywood or a piece of Masonite for 10x less. The Angelcare monitor, however, is totally worth it--five stars!"
+18453,1,Soiled Perfume box,"The Vera Wang box was soiled, it was received without manufacturers wrapper. It was to be a gift ! I endeavored to return but discovered liquids like this cannot be returned."

+18455,2,REAL history lessons!,This is a fabulous book - it ought to be part of the lesson plans in every high school! Written so that even George Bush could read it - maybe not fully comprehend it. (hehe) Makes a great gift too!
+18456,1,Even the great cast can't save this movie,"Other than the occasional comic relief, there are no redeeming qualities to this movie. I'm glad I didn't see it in the theater and bought it used."
+18457,2,Atwood is the best!,"I have done my master's degree on Margaret Atwood's The Edible Woman and the way Atwood critizes our male ruled society is brilliant. She refuses to portray women as victims of our society and she believes in the interaction of men and women in a ""healthy"" way. In The Tent Atwood gives us a variety of texts that deal with human rights, feminism, ecology and she also discusses a bit on the process of writing. I had the pleasure of meeting Atwood in Brazil and besides being extremely competent as a writer she is really kind with everyone. Buy this book now! If you liked Writing With Intent as much as I did, The Tent will add more wood to the fire! In The Tent you'll find the Atwoodian sense of humor on its best. Congratulations Ms.Atwood. I'm your #1 Brazilian fan."
+18458,1,"Look for another way to ""reinvent"" your kitchen","I was expecting this book to have some instructions or tips for remodeling a kitchen, or advice about different gadgets I could install, or show decorative objects I could display, but it is mostly a book on instructions for cutesy little projects. However, unlike the other reviewers, I was neither charmed or nor inspired. These are projects you can find in most other non-kitchen books on interior decoration. If the photos were great, that would make up for the lack of substantive information, but they are not. My recommendation is to skip this book."
+18459,2,These are dvds,and they record movies what a revelation.Really though verbatim is a good brand i would recommend this to anyone.
+18460,2,"excellent variety, not pop music, full gamot of emotions","Excellent creativity in this wide ranging soundtrack. 1/3 dark, moody music and the rest is either instrumental or upbeat.I use this to help me get into my Spanish role-playing character's mindset.Chris"
+18461,2,This book opened my eyes and the space in my home.,I just finished reading Mr. Silber's book and I find myself not only wanting to get organized but also looking forward to it. I found Mr. Silber's style to be both informative and more importantly entertaining. This is by far the best self-help book on getting organized I have ever read and I will be recommending it to my friends. Great job Mr. Silber.
+18462,2,"You've seen Karloff, now read the original","Once you read Shelley's classic you're going to scratch your head and wonder: Is this really the book that gave us the Karloff movie? Not to mention Herman Munster and Frankenberry. For over a century and half people have been cannibalizing this book for ideas, movies, other books, and products of every size, shape and type that our modern concept of Frankenstein holds little to no resemblence to the master work. While occasionally these bastardizations have had enjoyable results, like Young Frankenstein, it's criminal that so few people are unfamiliar with the source. Do yourself a favor and find out where it all came from. It's not nearly as creepy as you may think, but it's infinitely more thought provoking and it certainly doesn't hurt that this version is beautifully published at a very reasonable price."
+18463,2,Biting Satire,"I laughed myself sick (good knee-slapping, floor-pounding laughter), and yet, at the same time, was keenly aware of the political statements Fo made throughout the play. Dario Fo has created hysterically funny tragedy with this satirical look at Italy's police force. I am not familiar with Italy's political scene, but the message is clear: problems lay not only a corrupt system, but are also inherent in attempts to reform that system."
+18464,2,Made in the USA and works 100%,"I used these to remove my factory DIN radio in my Ford and it worked 100%, saved me a huge hassle of creating a removal tool with wire hangers, plus these are made in America unlike the Scosche ones made in China."
+18465,2,"Very Cute, Calm, Soothing","My 2 year old daughter enjoyed this DVD, and I enjoyed the calm gentle music. Instead of hearing the generally obnoxious children's show sounds pouring from our TV, the classical music provides a nice contrast. My daughter, who is usually very very active, even sits still to enjoy the Baby Einstein videos. The only reason I give it 4 stars instead of 5 stars is because this DVD just can't top Baby Mozart, our very favorite! It all depends on what YOU are looking for though, and any of the Baby Einstein series will be wonderful and enjoyable."
+18466,1,YAWN,"I have to disagree strongly with the rave reviews. (The number of low-priced ""new and used"" offerings seem to indicate this is not a five star winner.)It's not actively bad, but very, very dull. Flat, uninteresting characters doing very little and seemingly taking forever to do it. Maybe a half hour of actual plot in the whole series."
+18467,1,"Ink leaks, poor quality",I tried this ink with my MFC-5440CN and found it leaks a lot. I am not comparing it with the quality of OEM but it looks so low quality.
+18468,2,Almost just what I was looking for but not quite.,"This mat still works extremely well to work dough on, for biscuits, bread, cookies. I had once heard that it was so nonstick that dough rolled out on it would come off easy but my all the different kinds of dough I have used have so far stuck unless I dusted with flour first. If using cookie or biscuit cutters be careful not to press to hard or it will weaken the fibers in the mat. It had a small unravel on one end that was not a problem until my little boy found it and started pulling at it till about 2 inches were unraveled. I just cut off the messed up edge and it still works great. It stores better for me folded and in an opened ended plastic pouch I have also stored it rolled then slipped into a long paper bag. When storing be aware that the surface if the mat is a bit tacky from the silicon and whatever it is laid upon it will stick to a little and may pick up bits of for example lint, dust it has come in contact with while in storage."
+18469,2,This video really shows what matchbox 20 is all about.,The performances are unbelievable! The behind scenes show what they like to do on the road also things you've probably never known about the group. If you like matchbox 20 this video will make you love them and if you love them it's going to make you love them even more. I love it and recommend it to anyone!
+18470,2,A Good Dose of EWF,"This CD definitely merits a careful listening. A lot of the songs are of the slower variety. But I was particularly impressed by the upbeat track ""Revolution"", in which tribute is briefly paid to such wronged individuals as Mumia Abu-Jamal and Geronimo Pratt. The CD as a whole is very well done, but I wouldn't call it vintage EWF. Their earlier 1993 release ""Millennium"" is a better place to find a more funky, less R&B, sound."
+18471,1,Peace Sells...But Which Is Worse?,"(the 1986 original)Jeez, I don't know who sounds worse, Mark Slaughter or Dave Mustaine. Both of 'em sound like they've either had their vocal chords cut, or been huffing on the helium too much. In fact, Slaughter sounds like a little girl while Mustaine sounds like Donald Duck flapping his wings.Quack Quack Quack... Quack Quack Quack... Quack Quack Quack...Decent riffs can't save a turkey like Megadeath. At least Dave's vocals have improved over the years, but not on this Disney cartoon."
+18472,2,Guy Williams,"This disk is almost worth it, if only because of the Guy Williams screen test.I was one the serious Lost in Space Watchers(a little older than Billy), I laughed with the robot, Dr. Smith and Wil, but Guy had whatever Errol Flynn had(charisma). He should have been a much bigger than he became. But one thing you've got to give him credit for, he was his own man and loved his family. Good for him. Watch the screentest and see why."
+18473,2,Guy Pearce!,"This is the kinda movie I really like action adventure. Guy Pearce was funny and was quite believable as Marion Snow. Great action, the villians were wackos especially the little brother. I do wish Snow had gotten a kiss at the end of the movie."
+18474,1,the Invisible BLAND,I'd call it diet Brit pop. Sing is about as mediocre as you can get. It reminds me of Christian music - riskless and predictable. Travis inspire no one on this album and carry hardly any soul from track one to ten. A thorough listening gave me no reason to go back again and offered no remedy for my post-purchase anxiety. Buy John Lennon's Double Fantasy and save yourself before this abuse of schmaltzy melodies invades your consciousness.
+18475,1,"This is an ""Essential""?","As much as I love Doc Watson, I fail to understand nor to appreciate this album. How can a Doc Watson Essential album exist without ""Tennessee Stud""? Go figure!"
+18476,1,Just OK,Not impressed with the patterns in this book. Waste of my money! Should have returned this item when I could have.
+18477,1,KungFu Panda 2 audio problems,The audio for Panda 2 will randomly cut out. To fix it we have to restart the movie. Very annoying. Amazon will only provide a partial refund and we have to pay shipping. Not worth it. Amazon is usually great but very disappointed in this purchase and with Amazons lack of customer service for this product.
+18478,1,"A Nabokov fan, disillusioned by this book","Before I first encountered STRONG OPINIONS, I was a Nabokov fan. Reading this collection, however, changed my view of him for good. The man's weird animus against literally hundreds of major authors (Cervantes, Camus, Balzac, Mann, Stendhal, Lorca, Faulkner--you name 'em!) is terribly mean-spirited and small. His attacks on Freud get tiresome, and one begins to wonder if he ever did read much Freud in any depth. He also goes after other leading thinkers and even lets fly against, in his words, ""Einstein's slick formulae"" (I'm really quoting). And his defense of the U.S. war on Vietnam is incredibly ignorant and simplistic, even stupid. Nabokov the artist was a major presence who altered the shape of literature. Nabokov the man, by contrast, was a nasty, dogmatic, narrow-minded little fellow who couldn't countenance any aesthetic but his own.I'm not the only Nabokovophile who has had this ""conversion."" I know several others who've had the same experience."
+18479,2,BD-live features mostly worthless,"I explored the BD-live feature for the first time last night, and most of the functions require registration on Disney's site. On Disney's site an FAQ asserts that those features are being discontinued, and account creation is no longer possible. WTH? This disc was only released 8 months ago, and the much-heralded BD-Live features that personalize your disc and experience are already outdated.For what it's worth, I just bought UP (released last week), and the BD-Live features from Disney appear to be nothing but downloading trailers for other films ... four of them. My verdict on Disney BD-Live => total waste of time."
+18480,2,Excellent Photo Printer At A Reasonable Price,Epson really has photo printers down to a science at this point. Install and setup is quite easy. The printer takes up a bit more real estate than we've come to expect single-purpose printers to do these days but this is more than made up for by the prints which are comparable to what you get processing through a retail store.A very nice photo printer at a reasonable price. Great for the amateur photographer.
+18481,2,Godzilla Returns!,"This movie is great, the Super-x is looks great. Godzilla is more bigger looking in this movie than in any of the ones made before it."
+18482,2,Coffie shop at home,"There was a coffee shop near where I worked. They served the best Spiced Chai Tea Latte. Unfortunately, my office moved locations, but I need my Chai fix. One day when I was back in the area of the coffee shop I saw what they were using to make their Chai. It was Big Train. I've been buying this ever since. I love this so much more than the Tazo Chai that they fix at Starbucks. I just make mine with hot water and its good. You'll have to make it into a Latte to get the full coffee shop experience. Hot water or Latte it still tastes the same. My wife who is a coffee drinker says its too sweet or sugary. I've never had a taste for coffee, but I absolutely love this Spiced Chai and have gotten several people at work hooked; your welcome Big Train :)"

+18484,2,"Very practical, very useful","An excellent book with very practical examples, especially for JSPs. Explains the concepts of Tag libraries very well. Not as good strictly for Servlets but overall an excellent resource for JSP's. Hope the authors comeup with new books to cover Java Beans, EJB's Struts etc."

+18486,2,Excellent movie!,"I am a pretty big fan of the book and have seen various versions of it in movies. I was not particularly fond of any until I saw this one. It is, by far, the best adaptation of the novel. The only thing I felt did not ring true to the book was that both Jane and Mr Rochester were rather attractive. But I don't think that's really a bad thing. :)I thoroughly enjoyed this movie and would recommend it to any fan of the novel."
+18487,2,The Princess Diaries,Bought this movie for a 14 yr. old girl for a Christmas gift and she enjoyed it very much. The movie came very quick and was carefully packaged!
+18488,1,Not well written,"More like a term paper or thesis than a published book, did not enjoy at all, was a burden to read"

+18491,1,HORRIBLE,"Did they clone Nicholson to be in this piece of crap? Worst writing I have ever had to suffer through (about 35 minutes before I just shut it down) - don't waste a nickel on this. Just horrible. Abysmal script, bad acting - I usually give a movie a chance, but this was just awful."
+18492,2,Gee Whiz SF from the Golden Age of SF,"Up until the 6th grade I only read biographies, fairy tales, encyclopedias,dictionaries and class assignments. SF was out because most SF movies of thetime were pathetic---from a science based background. This changed when a female classmate gave a book report about ""Have Space Suit Will Travel"" in which shesaid that the protagonists ""Walked back to Earth(!)"" from a crash on the moon.I thought SF writers were dumb; but, not that dumb, so, I read my first SF novel.My classmate was WRONG! But, I was hooked on SF.I read ""Incredible Planet"" in the 10th grade and was introduced to 'PlanetBusting' genre of SF. I enjoyed one of the lead characters---Arn Munro---1st human born on Jupiter with all the traits one would associate with ahuman born on a heavy G planet.Session up, gotta go."""

+18495,1,NEVER worked!,"We ordered this exact model number from a different supplier than amazon.com. We tried 3 different batteries in it, all of which tested out okay on our battery tester. Within 24 hours we realized that sometimes the second hand moves (with a moderately loud tick, by the way), and other times it just sits there and wiggles. So obviously it can't keep time. So within 24 hours we called the supplier and they agreed to credit our account. They didn't even want it sent back.DO NOT BUY THIS PIECE OF JUNK!"
+18496,2,Small but Very Comfortable,"I bought these for myself as a Christmas gift. I really wanted just standard Gold hoops of good quality. The Pros are that these are extremely light and comfortable to wear. You won't even notice you have them on. The cons are that they are so small, you'll only want to wear them when you are at work or dressed comfortably over the weekend. If you're like me, they won't be a go-to for an evening out bcause their size makes them look too casual."
+18497,2,"We all watch them, we all watch them burn...","This isn't an album that gives out its pleasures easily--you'll definitely need to give it multiple listens to appreciate it. But boy oh boy, is it worth it! A dark album, certainly, but a brilliant one as well. Heroine, Daddy's Speeding, The Power, The Asphalt World--if different bands personify different conditions, Suede's got to be Intoxication. Just dizzying."

Wow !! There's lots to see, hear, feel in this adventure of the heart.Ford is a humorous storyteller; who can also ""zero in"" on pertinent subjects in such a way that the reader finds himself/herself in the midst of reading a true page turner.She has written a ""good book"" and I am looking forward to another novel from her, and soon!!!"

+18501,2,"A terrific sequel - lots of action, adventure and romance.","I and my children have seen both the original and the sequel. Great action and adventure. The horse riding scenes are terrific, especially when going down that big hill! I would recommend it to anyone who likes horses and adventure."
+18502,1,Don't buy.,"I watched this with a friend and afterwards was glad I didn't waste my money buying or even renting this movie. If you are looking for any kind of comic book continuity then skip this movie. There are so many things out of order in this movie I can't believe it was put into production. Alex Summers exists in the 60's as a young adult (impossible), and yet Scott doesn't.? I wasn't impressed with Kevin Bacon's portrayal of Sebastian Shaw or Sebastian's made up power to absorb explosions and energy to stay young.I won't bore you with all of the details of what I found wrong with this movie and why I wouldn't recommend watching it. If it was set apart from the comic books then it would be passable to watch. The special effects and action was good."
+18503,2,LOVE! Breaking Bad,"I am a HUGE fan of Breaking Bad, and Season 4 blew my mind. I cannot recommend it strongly enough. I have several of the other seasons on DVD, but got Season 4 via Amazon Streaming. Very easy to use, very good quality video."
+18504,2,Works like a charm,"We've got two of these systems. These are the first reasonably priced automatic leveling systems I've seen. Accuracy and consistency of sensor is excellent. I suspect that the compressor with these kits isn't exactly heavy duty industrial strength and wouldn't be surprised if it dies after a few years, but any compressor will work with this system."
+18505,1,very disappointing,"This is a very weak book when compared to Nadezhda Mandelstam's memoirs of the same period and personalities. Gerstein is not a gifted writer, so one must wade through a great deal of boring material to find something of interest."
+18506,1,Smaller than appears,"I was not pleased with the size of this product. I have a small 6 lb yorkie and she could barely 'sit' in the opening, and that's about it. I wanted this for long trips in the car, but it isn't feasible to use except maybe for short trips around town."
+18507,2,lefty or righty,i think that the seller should put in the description what color is righty and lefty im righty and i just realized that the pic of the gun i ordered looks like its lefty because their is no mag reles on the right side and theirs is no tiger lock on the right side
+18508,1,"Bad, bad, and more bad","There is not a lot about the story that I can say that hasn't been said. Poor writing and plot structure aside, Bella is weak, uninspiring and doesn't portray a strong woman. Instead, once she meets Edward -- a glittery, morally-torn vampire -- she becomes entirely dependent on him. Even though much of his actions and her reactions are classic signs of an abusive relationship. Is this really the kind of message our teens ans tweens should be learning? I find it really sad that this is as popular as it is. of course, the Twihards won't listen to this criticism. They will just call us names and claim we are jealous or something. A sad state of affairs that modern day discussions have come to that. Hopefully, they will see the light when they get older."

+18510,1,Don't bother,"Regardless of where you stand on the ECT/Anti-ECT controversy, I don't think you'll find this book to be worth your time. It appears to be designed as an anti-ECT tome, but I would have a lot of trouble citing any of its points in a debate."
+18511,1,terrible,"the MX1000 mouse is solid. that is the only positive about this product. the keyboard lags considerably. sometimes, like right now, I'm typing about two words ahead. It randomly disconnects, at the most inconvenient times. the software is annoying and complicated. it alt+tabs by itself about every half an hour... also, very annoying. i hate this desktop. it is way too expensive, and it just plain doesn't work. bluetooth technology sucks. stick with wires until the technology gets better."
+18512,2,Good for those who don't eat properly,I bought these to give to a friend in college who doesn't have the time or budget to eat fresh or as healthy as one should. They are a great supplement to keep your immune system happy with the available nutrients & vitamins it needs to do its job.
+18513,2,The Emotionallyabusedandneglectedchild by dorota Iwaniec,"This book helps me understand the dynamics of neglect and abuse when I am working with families as a behavioral specialist and teacher. It is an outstanding and well written book, the author has captured a great deal of information and strategies that are helpful to families and therapist.It has given me insight on how damaged our children are,not only physically but emotionally.

Since wearing the Tulis heel cups the pain has gradualy subsided and I am back to walking pretty ""normal"". I no longer compensate for that pain when my heel would hit and step on the ball of the foot like I was doing. Back to letting the heel hit."

+18519,1,Sickening,"This is a great and entertaining read-- FOR A CHILD-MOLESTING PEDOPHILE, MAYBE!! Laura Albert (the pyschopath behind J.T. LeRoy's hoax) is a disgusting individual. She has written about sex with children and people have praised her. The fact that there is a child in her care disturbs me greatly and now that her cover has been blown, I certainly hope the proper authorities have been notified.The rest of the book is just a joke as well. Although I really enjoyed Sarah (the book, not the character), the writing in this particular piece of junk was bland, the situations blatantly unrealistic and the characters were just plain bad. I can't believe she wasn't figured out after this hit the bookstore shelves."
+18520,2,GOOD,"I thought it might be see-through thermometer, but it isn't. So it is hard to read small dial against the bright exterior background."
+18521,2,Never Give Up,Excellent book! I loved it! 'Within Reach' is a book about Mark Pfetzer. He is fourteen when he decides that he will follow his dreams and become a mountain climber. Read the book and find out that mountain climbing is not all its cut out to be. I think that this book is very exciting. You will not be able to put it down. Fantastic. Read about how hard it is to follow your dreams when you are very young.
+18522,1,"It was very,Very tough to get some clear idea or support to make it work from the mnaual or from the internet information.","It is not easy to get CLEAR and EASY set-up instructions to avoid total disappointment of the product's inability to adapt as a transitional device to keep the functions of your normal land-line phones compatible.The settings from one's PC and the settings of the Skype network failed to create a constant compatible expectation for normal use.It either would receive or not receive a call or fail to function incoming or outgoing calls as expected. It worked than stopped working. It probably works but there is no particular set-up plan to bring the devices into a normal telephone network and no skype support that gives credible remedies or solutions.

+18523,2,(no title),this is an awesome book that is based on an awesome movie. I love this awesome book it is great
+18524,2,It looks at facts and not theories to develop is discourse,"At the introduction the author gets into a lingo of cross references with other writers which invites to an early closing of the book, but when the author goes to explain how women and market forces have colluded to turn products which deal with sexual descriptions and sexual practices from being labeled pornography and now called erotic, the reading takes flight and gives hope that fascist such as Andrea Dworkin and the likes of the Messe Commission will not be able to revert women to a home cage as the only place were there their sexual desires are acceptable."
+18525,1,I gave the book away,"I did not finish the book, but gave it to my County Library. I could not wade through the large amounts of inappropriate language and activities. Definately an 'R' rated book and one I cannot recommend to my friends for this reason."
+18526,2,any thing Merel Haggard has ever recorded rates 5 stars.,Merel is one of the best country singers in the world.... He has paved a long hard road and should be treasured. He has gave us some great music to listen to and play to our childern. Most kids today if you ask them dont even know who he is. If you ask one of my kids they tell you who he is and what song they like best. He's next to God almost. I dont think Merel could ever know how much he is loved by all.

+18528,1,Better Title: Memoire of Borderline Personality Disorder,"Elizabeth Wurtzel has made a career out of writing about her struggles with life as someone with Borderline Personality Disorder. She would do herself and her readers a big favor by making this clear. Unfortunately, her work has succeeded in popularizing and romanticizing both depression and addiction via mis-characterization."

The little red light lights up but no power is passed to the USB ports. I plugged my phone charger into it and Zilch, Zero, Nada. No power coming through either USB port. It is too inexpensive (cheap) to send back so I guess its a paperweight. My bad for thinking I could buy an inexpensive device such as this to have one in the car for conviennience (sp). Its junk."
+18532,1,Screw EA and DRM,"Good game or not, installation of the DRM is ridiculous, particularly with how invasive it is.Stop trying to fight it EA, or you're going to learn the hard way like the Music Industry did.Don't buy this game until they remove the DRM."
+18533,1,Give me a break !!,"All too often these days the conspiracy buffs are pimple faced kids. They were not there, did not see the events, and for sure they know NOTHING about physics, aviation, space, nor ANYTHING AT ALL ABOUT HISTORY.This book is a waste of your money. Instead, watch a historical video of any Apollo mission, and you might begin to understand. Go hear on of the Apollo guys giving a talk about, then you will learn something."

That just makes too much sense and it's very scary. The best part is... it works! Thanks to Geneen Roth, I can live how I wish to live without overeating and binging. This book is a MUST READ for anyone who has weight issues.Geneen Roth will give you the tools to lead yourself down the road to freedom. And all you have to do is read her book!"
+18537,2,Great entre into the poker world,"I found this book MUCH easier to read than others that I've read on the same subject. Clear examples and packed with detailed knowledge, this book deserves a second read rather than buying another title."
+18538,1,Come On! Enough Is Enough,"I have read everything of Nora Roberts' I can get my hands on. I love Ms. Roberts style of writing and her characters are great but enough is enough! A Little Magic is a book that takes the stories that Ms. Roberts wrote as part of a GROUP project and makes them a one man show. I love the stories when they are in their origninal form, with the other author's works. I can't help but feel that Ms. Roberts (or her publishing company)have real issues about sharing the spot light. Writing should be about telling a story, not only about making as much money as possible."
+18539,1,Not a very nice cup of coffee or experence!,"First, I have had good luck with this model in the past. I purchased another because of this and was looking forward to the same results. However, this coffee maker has scraped my kitchen counter, spilled coffee and water everywhere and has become a real hassle; And the place where you pour in water into is too small. If the filter holder it's pushed down completely, coffee grounds go everywhere inside the machine and out. I have had better luck with a Black and Decker ($20), then the more expensive coffee makers that are claiming they do so much better. I will not be buying another one anytime soon in the future until they fix some issues. At the moment, it is a high maintenance machine you get to wake up to frist thing in the morning."
+18540,2,Just plain great.,"Finally, after a long wait, the Weezer DVD is available. The ""raw nuggets"" are great and the ""dusty gems"" are even better. As far as content is concerned, this DVD does a great job of giving fans almost everything that the have been craving. The one thing that I expected, but am still disappointed in, is the lack of commentary from Weezer front-man Rivers Cuomo. He remains silent, and this is somewhat disappointing. Looking past this minor detail, the DVD is highly recommended for both old-school fans and newcomers alike."
+18541,2,A must-have field guide,"This is a GREAT book to have if you have any interest in petroglyphs. Whitley lays out a plausible and well supported theory for what they mean and how they came about (keep that in mind the next time those interpretative park rangers tell you no one knows what they mean).This is a very pretty book, in the best sense. Thee pictures of the sites are very good, and detailed driving/hiking directions and clear maps are given to get to the sites. They vary from easy to quite challenging. Pretty much all of the major sites inthe US Southwest are covered."
+18542,1,Not an S-Video cable.,"The one I received today, even though it has the right parts number, is not a S-Video cable. I received a cable that has a single small RCA type male plug on each end.The only use that I can think of for the cable I received is from a small stero to a single speaker."
+18543,2,No disk trays!,"I know of people who are on their second or third PS2 because the disk tray keeps breaking. This model has no disk tray, the top pops open like a CD player. Some of you may be thinking that because the older one costs more, it's higher quality, WRONG! It's less, because it costs them less plastic to make it. The big online attachment that you may know of is built in on this one. This one will last you a lot longer, just make sure to buy a vertical stand for $9.99, so it doesn't overheat."
+18544,1,Very bad experience,"I placed an order for this product. ShopSpark charged me, sent a totaly diferent product and now they don't want to send me the right product."
+18545,2,Body Oil Fan,"I have ordered this body oil several times already and will continue to do so. It is great for making your skin soft and gives it a light shimmer for night time. It smells really good and several people who have smelled it on me have said the same thing to me. My only complaint is that the way the bottle is made to dispense the oil (small hole in the middle under a snap on cap) tends to leak a little bit. When you tip it back, excess oil slides down the sides of the bottle and puddles around the bottom of the bottle so I keep it wrapped in the plastic that it arrives in to catch the oil."
+18546,2,Great gift!,"I bought this for my 8 year old nephew and he loves the toy! A good alternative gift to video game packs for tech savvy boys and girls (and cheaper, too)."
+18547,1,Disappointing,"I was unable to play this DVD because it said that it could only play in region 2 or 4. The USA is region 1, so some how I ordered the wrong DVD. I didn't try to play it until I'd had it over 30 days so I asked for the DVD made for USA. I asked after the 30 day deadline,so gave up. If you could ever get this for viewing in the USA, it is a very sweet story. I have it in VHS."
+18548,2,"Remarkable memoir, remarkable woman","Ayako Ishigaki's wonderful fictionalized memoir is revealing for it's sometimes subtle, sometimes angry, and sometimes tender treatment of the both the culture she was born into and the culture she experienced in the U.S. It's also a remarkable historical document that presents views of Japanese women that may startle the reader. The writing is fluid and engaging. You can read it easily in a day or two."
+18549,1,"The sorry, bad, and ugly","This has to be one of the worst playstation games I've ever played. I mean, I love my playstation and all the games that I own, but this one is going back. I've played the PC version of Rainbow Six before, and was pleased at the graphics, gameplay, and value level of the game. So I figured I would get the Dreamcast version since the manufactures claim it will be a direct port of the PC game. Instead I ended up getting the PSX version since the DC version wasn't availible. Let me sum up what Rainbow six is for the Playstation. Bad Graphics, Bad Gameplay, no multiplayer, no real value. It's boring and just, uh, plain bad. Stay way from it like the plague."
+18550,1,Very Bad,"I have boughten one of these and am not happy with it. It breaks easy and way to slow, it proves you get what you pay for."
+18551,2,excellent,"This book is a not only a first-rate story, but also is a great study of the conflict between several cultures (e.g., family, heritage, upbringing, the military, West Point, the Sixties) that shape Kai Ting's life. Gus Lee does a fantastic job of developing real, believable and thoroughly interesting characters, and really making the reader care about what happens to each of the people in the book. My only disappointment was that the book ended too soon! I wanted to read more! . . . unless the author's thinking was that he wanted the reader come up with his or her own continuation of the story, or perhaps we will someday see a sequel. I hope the latter is true."
+18552,1,waste of money,"When I got this alarm clock for around 9 months, the radio died, and I could only use the beeping sound for alarm purposes. 2 months later, the clock just died completely. I think the price for this alarm clock is too high for something only last around a year."
+18553,1,"Yeah, one Nickelback was more than enough...","They do sound exactly like Nickelback. I won't harp on it because that's all been done, but just face it - they're an imitation...to Nickelback what Hoobastank is to Incubus, except that Incubus is good...But just forgetting all of that for a moment...they're not any good. The singer's voice sounds over-enunciated and forced and the songs are, well, in a word, lame. Topping the lame charts is ""Lips of an Angel."" If you're looking for a whiny, self-important tune about a guy who just can't *sniffle* pick between two girls and has to have secret goo-goo-whispery conversations with the ex while the current g/f sits ""blissfully"" unaware in the next room, then this is your band. ""Oh, everyone, feel my pain because I couldn't POSSIBLY break up with the girl I supposedly don't like and go back to the one I supposedly do, 'cause then I wouldn't be a playa, yo."" Gag me. Go away."
+18554,1,A Real Mess,"This was the third book I bought to help me get started with CGI stuff. It was not very helpful, when I started learning. I was using it in an online class. Since that early learning experience, I forced myself to figure out cgi instalation. I now have many scripts on my site. Recently I wanted a hidden counter, and I remembered there was one in this book. I went back to the book and tried to install it. And what a mess. There is no coordination between the CD and the book. The book has no set outline, for configuration. And there are errors that will make you think your an idiot. Do your self a favor and just start downloading scripts from the web and learning the difference between a path on your server and a path with a URL in the browser. Maybe another book will help, but stay away from this one, oh and I'll but this one up for auction, here at amazon, and good luck!"
+18555,2,Instant Astrologer Review,"I ordered this book from Amazon because I had come across it in Barnes & Noble but it was too expensive. I liked the looks of it and the software enclosed is a real bonus...so I checked out Amazon. Behold, they had it in stock and I ordered it.The book is filled with lots of good information. You don't have to be an astrologer to use it, but it helps. The software will give you a written report on two levels...Personality and Time Line...or...""what is happening now and how it might affect me"". Both are useful and well written. It is a big book with alot of well thought out, accurate delineation. I give it an A+"
+18556,2,Very good electro-pop but also kind of cheesy - one of 2004's best - 4.5 stars,"This album is no ""Moon Safari"" (as far as musicianship and creativity goes), but at least it's very entertaining. As opposed to ""Moon Safari"", however, there's no ""filler"" (although I suppose a better way of saying it is that all the songs are equally good) which is great if you're trying to listen to the album straight through. The only downside, though, is that the songs aren't as influential or great as the ones on ""Moon Safari"" (but really, who would expect them to be?). Nevertheless they are very entertaining, even if some of them are a kind of guilty pleasure (such as ""Cherry Blossom Girl""). However, if you like Air or electro-pop in general you will most likely enjoy this album, though not as much as ""Moon Safari"" (at least you'll recognize that the best tracks on that album are much better than the best tracks on here). Definitely one of 2004's better albums. Highly recommended!Highlights include:the entire album!"
+18557,2,Grass Roots Remembered,"I vaguely remember Will Lee as being a man of moral virtue in Grass Roots (my favorite Stuart Woods book). He now returns as a man running for President. Unusual circumstances cause him to run before he is ready. Lee maintains his integrity throughout the campaign. There are many plot twists, assassination attempts, and a past love encounter to hold one's interest. Woods includes characters from some of his other books, but he does not feel the need to characterize them in depth. Surprises abound. They made this a good read."
+18558,1,Insomniac's Dream,"I should have heeded the reader from San Diego. Although Tom Holland seems to be quite knowledgeable on the ancient history, he seems to enjoy adding his own philosophy on the ""then and now"" which distracts the reader from the content of the chapter or paragragh being read. I started reading this book with a vengeance eager to see what would happen next. Then I found myself re-reading pages to remember where I was. Finally, I used it to fall asleep with instead of my usual dose of melatonin. I have highlighted some favorite quotes from the greats....Cicero, Virgil, Horace. That's at least something to reference later."
+18559,2,The Quiet Beauty of Shopgirl,"The fact that Steve Martin is an icon in Hollywood and a household name to comedy is enough to make one slightly intrigued with the news that Martin had decided to pursue his literary talent with a small novella entitled Shopgirl. However, contrary to his hollywood début, Shopgirl does not contain laughably loud comedy that pushed Martin to the forefront of Hollywood's best. Yet, Shopgirl is worthy of attention and praise. Because it is a novella, rather than a novel, says something about the book itself. It presents itself with quiet mystery; in which, the main characters appear at first with vagueness while emerging slowly with grace and strength. This is seen in particularily with Mirabelle who grapples with the routines of life and the mysteries of love. Shopgirl's overall subdued beauty gives it a haunting effect that leaves a hunger for more."
+18560,2,Retro Swing,"I liked a number of the listings especially #18, but a few were pedestrian. Worth buying for the good ones."
+18561,2,Memories,I absolutely love this CD! I have been searching for years to get this album. It brings back so many wonderful memories. I gave it this rating because it is one of my favorite albums rom the '80s!
+18562,1,It was great until ....,"... Until we tried to play it the second time. It's actually a fun game for kids (I'd say under 9 years old) but please read the other reviews. It's very poorly made. Ours lasted one round and then the spring mechanism failed. Took more time to set it up, read the directions and get ready than to play. It is not a better mousetrap."
+18563,1,"Good design, Poor reliability","The good: this system is great for a portable system. I used it in conjunction with a powered subwoofer. The sound is very good. DVD is hooked up to computer LCD monitor. Works very well. Lots of function in a nice little package.The bad: the receiver lasted a little over a year, then failed. - could play CD or DVD for 10 minutes or so, then the big static noise and would not response further. I used it a lot during the year that it operated, but i expect the thing to last a little longer, and not just fail soon after basic warranty expires."
+18564,1,Awful,"I purchased based on other reviews that it was similar to the now discontinued Secret of Venus by the same manufacturer. However, it smelled so bad I returned for a refund. Why anyone would want to smell like that???? I could have gotten a bad batch or it could just be pretty bad!"
+18565,1,One for the Bargain Bin,"I loved The Lion King so of course I had to get this. I knew it wouldn't be as good, but watching it, it turned out to be a lot worse than I imagined... the songs were TERRIBLE, and the storyline was UNORIGINAL...why did Disney bother?? I wouldn't reccommend this, even if The Lion King is your fave movie."
+18566,1,Sad editing process in Kindle edition,I agree with Ken and want to add that the typographical errors in the Amazon Kindle edition made it almost unreadable. Please have some technician correct this!It did provide me with valuable information and connections about the Colorado/Denver people and an early perspective on that history.
+18567,1,This book is not very good.,"Ms. Resnick's book seems too self-serving and isn't very detail oriented as it relates to how to get started in investing. After reading this book, I still felt lost. I would suggest another book."
+18568,1,Noisy,"Well it's at a very low price which is good but is offset by it's negative points. After using it for a couple of times I no longer want to use it because of noise and also because it wastes some juice. So that means I bought something I can't use, -1 for me."
+18569,2,Decent starter net,"For the price and relative ease of use, this is a decent starter net. The five foot height/width makes it a little small for older youth. It is easy to fold, carry and store, which is a huge plus - especially compared to other so-called portable nets. It deploys fairly easily enough, though the support pole set-up is not completely intuitive. The set I puchased had no instructions, so it wasn't until after several uses that I completely figured it out. All in all, however, I am pleased with it and would buy another should the need arise."
+18570,2,Great for Graduate Classes,"I used this for my graduate classes. It was an incredible help. My professor would talk a mile a minute and I could barely take down all the notes. He would throw in test questions from the notes from class that were often not able to be found in our text books. While at the gym, I'd pop in the headphone and re-listen to a lecture. Worked great. I also downloaded lectures onto my computer, in itunes, with the built in USB port. Then I could transfer it to my ipod, connect it to my port in my car, and listen to it on my 30 min drive to school or road trips. This little device is the reason why I made the Dean's list 2 years in a row. Seriously."
+18571,2,Excellent,Very good story and documentation of the origins of Chein ware from China. The author spend many years there researching the origins of this pottery and the special glazing that was used to make these fine pieces of pottery. Great story and also excellent for research study.
+18572,1,"watchable, but............","As I previously stated this movie is watchable, but that's about it. As a suspense/thriller it disappoints. As a member of the Aliens family, it makes little sense. Do not expect to be wowed. No great acting, not visually awesome. Simply meh."
+18573,1,DVD Player not DVD Burner,I never used this item. I needed a DVD Burner and ordered a DVD player so I never used it. Just returned it unopened.
+18574,1,NOT PRACTICAL,"I bought this book and what a mistake! I gave it 2 stars, but really would like to give it none. The only reason I gave it 2 was because a lot of people (given the previous reviews) seem to find it useful. The most useful thing I have learned from this book is to never buy a knitting book without using it first (from the library or a friend). Take a technique you would like to learn and see if the book describes it in a way you can understand. VOGUE KNITTING IS FAIRLY GOOD, but for a large reference, the best I have found so far is THE ULTIMATE KNITTERS BIBLE. The pictures are large and I can actually go from the book to utilizing the instructions in a real project. Each time I have a question I look at all of my reference books. I have never found The Knitting Answer Book understandable. P.S. I have a graduate degree and don't consider myself to be stupid."
+18575,1,ok,"It's small size and easy to take with you to charge the battery. However, I didn't realize it already came with the camera package, so lost money for s/h to return it."
+18576,1,Not the album I had growing up.,"The songs are all in a different order and I've just seen a face"" is not even on it. I don't know if it was a different release but the cover is the same. Very disappointing because the order of the songs on the album told a story, and this is just a mixed-mesh of Beatles songs."
+18577,1,BEWARE!!!!!,These are not the original recordings. Re-recorded by Eric Burdon when he was past his prime. Not so good. Buy BEST OF THE ANIMALS on the ABKCO label. Those are original and great.
+18578,2,Great Lens,"I was in 2 minds whether to spend this amount of money on a lens. It was a gift from my partner and he encouraged me to go for it. I'm so glad I did.The lens is so easy to use and the IS is amazing. It causes quite a stir when using it because people come up and ask about it, share their tales of when they owned one etc.The push pull zoom is very easy to get used to, the autofocus is quick and very quiet and the build quality is excellent.When carrying it, I cradle it in my arm to take the weight off my neck and I didn't find it too much hassle to carry (even for a female)The only problem I now have is the lens far exceeds my competence as a (very amateur) photographer, but I have been spurred on to really try and learn all about photography now so I make full use of this great piece of equipment."
+18579,2,Wonderful but rare video,I saw this in 1992 and it is a beautiful production. I only wish I could find it in a digital format!
+18580,2,Cathouse,"Merry Pet Cat Washroom / Night Stand Pet HouseLOVE THIS!This is well made, looks great and best of all it hides the litterbox. Now you can't tell I have a cat or two. Easy to put together. You will love this. Thank you."
+18581,2,Perfection in book form.,"This book is just beautiful - both the story and the art work. My 3-year-old daughter loves it so much. It is one of the first books she has wanted to read over and over and over again (generally she likes a variety). Not only is the story fabulous and the art work absolutely captivating, but the lesson learned in it is wonderful. I may just make a dream jar for my own children so that they don't have to worry about bad dreams. I'll bet it would really work. The descriptions are very well illustrated - I can't say enough about the illustrations - I just want to crawl inside this book and live in it. It inspires me to try to create something beautiful myself. This is the greatest gift that literature (children's or otherwise) can give us, I believe. If you have a little kid in your life who either loves to dream or is afraid of dreams, this book is for you."
+18582,2,Short of the Chat Pen,"Logitech IO is based on the Anoto system ...The problem with this pen is that it does not contain the bluetooth wireless connectivity that the SonyEricsson Chatpen does which would make it universally usable anywhere. Who wants to drag the Cradle around?Letter recognition can be done through Windows'/Office's own Document Imaging, so that solves that problem. The paper will not be much more expensive than most other paper. Afterall it is regular paper with a fine dot system printed on it. You will even be able to print it yourself with a regular ink-jet printer, should the need arise...The pen is a step in the 'write' direction as another reviewer mentioned, yet we are still waiting for the heavy-weights to bring their pens out. For the pen to be more usable, it NEEDS to be wireless, without silly download-cradles.Good for the the person that just uses it around the house..."
+18583,2,awesome!,"Brie Larson is an amazing singer and songwriter, and her efforts really show on this great debut album. Everyone knows that Brie is a great singer, but what many people don't know is that she also plays guitar, bass, and piano/keyboard! All this would be awesome as it is, but you also have to remember that Brie is just a 16 year old girl. If you like Hilary Duff, Aly & A.J., Ashlee Simpson or Kelly Clarkson, you will love Brie Larson! 'Finally out of P.E.' is a must-have album for rock and pop lovers alike."
+18584,2,Fantastic!,I noticed a difference between this and another B Complex I was taking from health food store. The form of B12 in this formula seems to make a difference. I feel so much better on this product. I have fibromyalgia/chronic fatigue and this product and the others recommended by Dr. Teitelbaum are making a difference in my life.
+18585,1,Good idea- bad Execution,"I was looking for a silent keyboard that would glow- this sounded like a great buy from the description. I tend to be at the computer a lot so seeing that i eat there a lot, a food/liquid proof keyboard that's washable sounded great! And it is, if you look past the fact that you can barely type a sentences correctly without going back and having to add spaces and fix typos.I write, email, chat, and play video games on the pc, so this is a major problem. You have to very deliberately push down on the keys, rather hard (sore fingers aren't rare), and yet if you push them too hard it'll give you a double key-stroke. It's pretty much impossible to type quickly.If you are a 2-finger typer, the type that are very slow and dont type a whole lot, this can work. Otherwise, don't bother. Buy something better, please."
+18586,2,"Good book, could have lived without the preverted sex scenes","This was a good book, I found it and enjoyed it. But being a 12 year old, I thought the sex was unecessary and made me uncomfortable."
+18587,2,The essential guide to birding Venezuela,"This is the only national bird finding guide for Venezuela and has long been carried by visiting birders along with handful of supplementary trip reports. It is a book you need if you're planning a birding trip to Venezuela. However, be sure to pick up the 5th edition.The 5th edition is about twice the size of its predecessor and much better presented thanks to Lynx Edicions. The coverage has expanded both in detail and scope. The Amazonas & Bolivar sections now run to 40 pages, for example, and the fabulous Escalera Road receives kilometre by kilometre treatment. Maps are included for the first time and the written site descriptions are much improved. The usual sections on travel in Venezuela, planning an itinerary and finding a guide are still there and somewhat improved too.This book is pretty much mandatory for planning a birding trip to Venezuela."
+18588,1,Broke after two weeks and TERRIBLE customer service,"We bought this dishwasher online and got it three weeks later. It never did work right, and after the fourth use, it broke. Started to fill with water, then just beeped and shut off. We called Haier (HA! what a joke) and went through all of the things to try to get it to work again. Then were told we would have to pay $14.99 if we wanted a new one and it would take over three weeks. No thank you. I'd rather wash them by hand!Don't waste your money, time or sanity on this product."
+18589,1,Nice While It Lasted,"This shredder worked pretty much as it said it would in the literature. It is a step up from the low end ""personal"" shredders that can only take a few pages at a time and can't run very long without needing to rest.Aside from a basket that filled pretty quickly (you have to redistribute the shredded paper as it naturally forms a heap right below the blades), it did the job for me.But here I am 17 months later and it is semi-dead; it only runs in reverse and the operating lights are dim. I'm past the one-year warranty and only the blades are warranted for longer than that. It just dropped dead out of the blue and definitely wasn't overused. For a shredder that cost close to $100 I expect a LOT longer operating life."
+18590,2,Must Have Wailers Album,"This is the Wailers first full Jamaican album produced by Leslie Kong. This is not one of the thousands of cheesy ""Best Of"" collections. The title was an attempt to get this album sold outside Jamaica. This is a must have early recording when the Wailers were a group and not a back up band. The original Stop the Train with lead vocals from Peter Tosh is worth the price alone. Many of the tracks are on ""The Essential Bob Marley and the Wailers"" compilation with some great Lee Perry produced tracks. I personally enjoy listening to the first album by one of my favorite bands in its original form."
+18591,1,"Boring, Disappointing, Just OK","Hey... I bought this hoping to see interviews with Jerry Garcia, and other prominent and famous people yet was disappointed when such footage was not in the film.From the description it seems like such content is on the dvd but no it is not.Interesting people are on for seconds, and I only felt an emotion to this film maybe once or twice.The whole film is about ""what do I do with my life, yada, yada""... meanwhile!...!..... the guy who made this film- the main dude in the movie- is makin money off the film. So thanks man, make money off the people (who bought your movie) who really need direction in their life.And also, thanks for having such a decieving description of your film, on the back of the DVD and on the product description on amazon."
+18592,2,Beautiful sound,Beautifully made with great workmanship. These are not your ordinary run of the mill chimes. Rich strong sound you will be able to enjoy for years. Definitely a sound investment in beauty and tranquility.
+18593,1,disapointed,"We ordered this product because it was suggested by Consumer's Reports. We have been very disappointed. It does not hold very much water so it is always needing to be refilled, and the humidity in our room never seems to go up. A few times the humidifier just randomly starting chugging, and then started spewing water. Sometimes there will ever be puddles around it, so I am afraid to put it on the floor. Not sure if we ae just doing something wrong but it has been more trouble than its worth......"

+18595,2,easy-revealing,The Kill-a-watt ez is indeed easy to use. It has revealed several energy wasters that I have. The problem is trying to reduce energy without reducing quality of life. Do I really need 4 cable boxes and 4 TiVo's running 24/7? Now I know how much savings are possible for plug in items. Too bad they don't make one I could hook to my main electric box to see how much I could save by running the AC several degrees higher.

+18599,1,Mad Max Needs to Pay the Rent this Month.,"Wow, are you kidding? Words don't express my dissatisfaction with this pile of dung. Mad Max was fantastic, Road Warrior was wonderful. This bomb should have been used as a directors training film on how to mess up a sure thing. I guess it's just too easy to foul up a sequel when you can't figure out why the audience liked the originals and your star isn't really interested in the project. Sorry Mel, but even you can't save this one."

It will ask how one values life and quality of life. One can hear threads one's own thoughts and feelings in various characters. It also recognizes that there are very real losses (and gains) when we adhere to the value systems in our own hearts."

+18606,1,"Not ""Ultimate"" for sure.","I purchased this CD for about $5. Disc one was like being at church on any regular day. I did not hear much classical Christmas music, but lots of choir music. And, the first song was such a disappointment. I really loved this song and the rendition of it was just too mellow with one sorrowful voice and no instrumental backup. Disc two was better with more of the classics being played the way I remembered. My only favorite was the March from the Nutcracker Ballet performed by the Philadelphia Orchestra. Both discs were quite boring and very down beat for the most part. I was not inspired to bake cookies, shop for presents nor decorate. I did get myself a shot of Jack Daniels, though."
+18607,1,Martha Quinn's Revenge,"This CD sounds like it is made up of leftover material that Diddn't make it on to the ""Moveing Pictures"" and ""Signals"" Albums.The First track ""Distant Early Warning"" is a good song but It sounds out of place on this record.Most of the songs sound like an 80s ""flashback."" ""the Enemy Within"" is another gem but thats about it.THis CD sounds like alot of Bands from the 80's.THe CD is Over produced and Over rated.Pick up ""2112"" ""Counterparts"" or ""Farwell to kings"" they are alot better than this."
+18608,2,Lots of good information by well respected authors in the field of AD/HD,"Started doing research to stay informed about AD/HD as my son was diagnosed with ADD and I have recently come to realize, as an adult, that I have it too.The book covers a lot of ground. It's pretty up-to-date on research and treatments. I've come to realize, because of this book, that there is so much more to the treatment of AD/HD than simply getting a prescription for one of the multitude of drugs that are offered. It's about support, meds (or no meds), diet, family, organization...etc.Because of this book, my family has opted to try qEEG brain-mapping and EEG Neurofeedback. Cutting-edge stuff!This book is an excellent choice for those looking for direction for themselves or for those they love as they start their journey away from distraction."

I have, over the years, managed to collect a copy of each succeeding novel in this series and until now have spent many a happy hour reading and re-reading the Ashes books. Until now!For some reason Mr. Johnstone has written a book that seems, to me, to be a feeble effort to keep the series going. Like many of his readers I am more than willing to put up with pages of flash backs to other novels, his political agenda (much of which I agree with) and his latent homophobia, IF the end result is a good read, which this, his latest effort, is not.I would much rather have waited another year and read another fine, cracking tale from Mr. Johnstone's pen than this drivel.A major disappointment and I sincerely hope that Mr. Johnstone will return to us the fine novels he writes so well."
+18611,1,"Sure testosterone, but worst than the first","OK, the reason you watch these movies is to put hair on your chest and grunt like a caveman for 1.5 hours.Believe it or not, the first one was better than this one.

No real rhyme or reason, just out of the blue there they are.Overall if you have a few beers and half watch it, it's fine, but nowhere near a five star movie."
+18612,2,A Great Book for Runners of All Abilities,"Nancy Clark has clearly written a book that will direct runners on the best way to set up your nutrition plan. I first read her article in Runners World Magazine in December 2002. It lead me to this book, and as a result I lost 13 pounds while training for a marathon. It is a common sense approach to eating for life. No protein overload! This is a must read for all runners!"
+18613,2,Replaces costly broadband,"Replacing the less-expensive DIR-625 802.11-BGN router, this eliminated the need for PLC range extenders to allow laptops to be used from every room in the house, it remained connected to the Internet for the entire road trip from Washington, DC to Key West, saving the expensive monthly EV-DO charges for mobile broadband."
+18614,1,Are you people INSANE?,"Are you people INSANE? This movie was an insult to everything produced in the first 2 movies. This movie was worse than Godfather III, Ghostbusters II or even the new Star Wars trilogy. This film made me want to roll up in a little ball and cry myself to death. I have never felt a film could be so terrible and even insulting before. This movie changed my outlook on going to movies simply to get out and watch a movie with a tub of popcorn. I can't DO THAT ANYMORE. I am so traumatized by XIII that I have to read RottenTomatoes and Flixter and ask multiple people who've watched it bc I don't ever want to be conned again. What kind of person can give this movie 5 stars? Are you being paid by the producers? Was the porcupine mutant so impressive that you jumped out of your seat and cheered when he hugged the scientist?Disgusting!!"
+18615,2,Very Comprehensive Book - good section on diseases!,A very good book for the beginner as well as the experienced. Covers a broad number of topics including set-ups to identifying diseases. Every hobbyist should have as a reference.
+18616,2,song translations?,"This is a great CD, but the downside is that I can't understand a lot of the songs. Does anyone know where I can find translations to these songs, particularly ""mwari sigaramahoro""?"
+18617,1,Useless.,"This kind of ""experimentation"" was already over in the days of Woolf and Joyce. Not only was D.F. Wallace incredibly overrated and incredibly out of touch, but he's left us a legacy of second-rate regurgitated drivel like this as well. Thanks, guy.Whatever happened to telling real stories about real people?"
+18618,1,"Lots of beautiful color pictures, but not much else","For each of the 9 ba gua sectors, she lists what to do with each type of room. I excitedly opened the book and began thumbing through it. Let's see, Self-knowledge, my office ... wait - there's no office listed. Ok, let's try Intimate Relationship, Dining Room ... ""have fun with it."" I wonder what she means? Ok - Creative Offspring, kitchen ... ""use all four burners on your stove, even if it is only to boil water."" Huh? Ok then - Health, bathroom ... ""large mirror and upward sconce lighting above the sink."" Ok, the bathroom advice is a little weak, but at least it means something. Hopefully you get the idea. I really wanted to like it, but bottom line is that it's not all that helpful."
+18619,2,Amazing Picture Quality,Purchased for my son...WOW what a picture...also comes with some fun software to play with...funny hair that moves around with you as you move
+18620,1,Great book if you hate science,"I should know better- any time a book has a negative title, that's a red flag for me.Instead of 'It's not carpal tunnel"" , something about what it IS then, might be a better approach.The general anti-doctor attitude is a theme that does not just run through the book, it overtakes it to the point that it renders the information useless. This book is more of a manifesto than a manual on how to take care of your body.Save your money and just do some hand warmups before you type, eat right and get a second opinion - there, now you know as much as I do after reading this book!"
+18621,2,Great Courtroom drama as only Andy Griffith (Ben) can deliver.,"Great stories/plots keep this show going the whole way through. (And encouraged purchases of other seasons too.)Ben is a very likeable character with lots of charm and Charisma. This has a great supporting cast who really bring this show together.it follows a similar route for most episodes1 - the crime2 - Ben is hired3 - his team have to find the ""truth"" before judge's final verdict4 - Just in the nick of time Ben weaves his skill and reveals the real killer.5 - joy and happiness restored.....ENDIf you like this then check out Murder She Wrote (All 12 seasons). Its not court room, but great!"
+18622,2,Great Bargain!,"I've used these a few times when I suspected I might be pregnant and the results were negative. It's a fantastic bargain if they work and I have no complaints yet.8/22/09 Update: I used these for a few days before my period was due and each time it was negative. The day it was due, I took another one and was about it throw it away but thought I saw a faint line. I took a pregnancy test at a local WIC and it was negative so I thought I was imagining things. But the next day I took another to be sure and it was the tiniest bit darker. So I went and bought a test that says, ""Pregnant or Not Pregnant."" (I love those tests. They're so no nonsense.) I was pregnant. I guess I can't complain too much about the test strips but I am used to pregnancy tests telling me a day or two before hand that I am definitely pregnant. I didn't like the uncertainty of it. But I will use them again. They're so cheap and if I don't have the money for a store pregnancy test, I know they will work....eventually."
+18623,2,A sterling example of the visual display of great quantitiies of data.,"This is a tri-fold pocket-ed heavy paper folio, housing:32 b&w; anthopometric charts (9.25"" x 12.5""),2 white on blue life-sized human figure charts (25""x 76""), and1 saddle-stitched paperback, 20 pp., (9.25"" x 12.5""), describing the contents and the technique of ""human factors"" employed by Dreyfuss & Associates in their imaginative design of human things.This is not a book; it is a design tool. It is a dense, stark and beautiful tool, the components of which are presented & produced as art, suitable for hanging.As I have used both as a designer, I believe this work is worthy of contemplating in relation to examples in Edward Tufte's ""Envisioning Information"", Graphics Press, 1990."
+18624,2,Brilliant collection.,"This double disc anthology does a wonderful job of spanning Be Bop Deluxe's collected works. The strongest cuts, and the majority of the collection, come from Sunburst Finish, Modern Music, and Futurama(now out of print). The wonderful live album, Live in the Air Age(also out of print), is represented by only two cuts. There are four from the generally weak Axe Victim and a handful from their inconsistent swan song Drastic Plastic. There are also a few rarities tossed in as an added bonus. Bill Nelson's creativity, musicianship(he is a sorely underated guitarist), and songwriting are truly outstanding. This collection is highly recommended...Simon"
+18625,1,Poor -Unable to view,"Disappointing. This was our first purchase through amazon and unfortunately we are unable to view the movie; it comes up ""bad disc"" on all comp and players. We had thrown out the return slip for shipping and had not yet contacted amazon about an exchange. So any assistance would be appreciated to rectify this situation."
+18626,1,A New Christianity for a New World,"This book is an old look at an old view of God. Spong says that the historical, theological, and biblical view of God is wrong. Then he ahead and defines God in his (Spong's) own view, that is that endless and immeasurable love becomes God. He is creating God in (Spong's) image. This is specially laughable because he says that man is now too sophisticated to create idols in the image of god. This book is sophisticated TRASH!"
+18627,2,Definitely a good thing!,I love what Prince (he'll always be Prince to me) has done with his classic 1999! The funky groove he has added make it more with the times. He is a true Artist!!
+18628,2,But....,"But, will never understand why the song ""Time and Time Again"" is not included. It's their first song that I heard and absolutely had to have, having heard it for the very first time on the ""I Was A Teenage Zombie"" soundtrack album."
+18629,1,Heartbreakingly horrible.,"I was so excited to see this. The first few minutes (poking fun at Fox) were giddy glee. Then the ""story"" began.It just plain was not compelling. It felt like if you asked a machine to write a Futurama episode. The characters and jokes and themes were all there, but it seemed like a fake sendup of Futurama.Heartbreakingly horrible."
+18630,2,Ultima 9: Ascension.,"Ultima 9: Ascension, is undoubtly the slowest game engine I have ever seen. I have a p2 450 with 382 megs of ram and the Diamond Viper 770 and the game is painfully slow. Also Ulitma 9 is extremely buggy even after you install the 1.05f patch. Featuring random crashes and lock ups. (See Gamespot's news) There are numerous errors that prevent the user from completing quests and thus finishing the game. All this being said Ultima is an amazingly detailed outdoor environment, and beautiful graphics engine. The game is very fun and engaging, well worth the money. The bottom line is if you have the patients to dealer with an absurdly slow game engine, and frequent crashes get this game now. If not wait until Ultima has finally fixed most of the problems (I don't think they will ever get all of them fixed), and there is a system on the market capable of playing game reasonable well."
+18631,2,Winter favorite!,It got cold and we kissed salads good bye. This is a wonderful cook book. The kids enjoy building a delicious hot meal.
+18632,1,Defective Tape.,I received a bad tape. Everytime I played the tape for five minutes it would go blank. On the outside of the tape was a messege that said (If you experience picture problems adjust tracking control). I played this tape on three different vcrs using the tracking control one with auto tracking and I still had the same problem. The tracking control didn't do any good. I've bought many movies from Amazon before but this is the only bad one I've got. The picture quality was perfect until it went blank.
+18633,2,Party on dudes!!!!,"OH MY GOD!!! This film rocks man, as soon as i saw i rewound it and watched it again. I borried it off my brother but wanted a copy of it myself so i totally went out and bought one this morning. I only saw it last night with my mates and i can't stop telling people about it in work today. When the music parts came on we jumped all around the room dancing, it was deadly. It was a bit hard to follow at times though because i'm a bit slow, but i used some of my fancy paper and a crayon to take notes and that did it for me. Anyways i'll quit gabbing on about it but all i can say is its totally safe to go out and buy this before watching it or my name isn't Claire Kennedy!!! Keep it real people ;o)"
+18634,2,Great Stuff,"The reviewer was quite rough. Not every song on this CD is great, but it has some of the most rockinest music I have ever heard for the most part, especially the first two tracks."
+18635,2,It's been a LOOOOONG Time,"It's been along time since I had this back in my collection. I have to say that all the LP's I have back in the day, you have them all. As soon as I get my full list together I'm gonna holler back PEACE Oliver."
+18636,1,baaaad!,"wow, this was the worst movie i have seen in years! how did this get released. does anybody proof these things? i threw the dvd away after breaking it in two just to make sure i did'nt watch it again! awful! it does'nt even rate anything."
+18637,1,works but..........,"this thing keeps contents bone dry, that is if you dont rip it trying to open the package, and as of the ""contents"" i mentioned, you would be lucky to fit a credit card and a small set of keys, this thing is TINY i cant even fit my blackberry in there."
+18638,2,U.S. Army Footage/Documentary,"This is a pretty good film if you are in to Vietnam aircraft. The video is grainy (what would you expect from the time it was shot though), and everything has cheesy music laid on top. The narrator is decent. The footage however, is great! You're not gonna see too many kills, but you will see lots of bombs going off from altitude, aircraft carrier landings, and even some Migs getting missled down. Not the greatest documentary on earth but worth the price and watch in my opinion."
+18639,1,DRM = Purchase protection,"I can personally verify that DRM has protected Spore from being purchased by me. I can tell you that I was looking forward to buying a copy of spore, I have been following it's development for almost two years now. But since of this DRM BS I won't, for now at least. I know I could get it DRM free on piratebay but I won't do that either. Maybe I'll buy it for $9.95 in a year or so."
+18640,1,The information in this book is useless.,"I'm not the type of person to write a review, but I feel it is necessary to warn others that this book is absolutely useless. Half of volume 2 just repeats volume 1 and nearly all of the book is filled with forms and inspirational messages. I don't need a self help book! I just wanted some factual information about tax liens. I feel like a sucker after wasting over $60 on both these books."
+18641,1,NOT WORTH TO BUY,What is that? I dont wanna learn about the black people life style. I expected to listento hip-hop or rap. this dvd is the worst ever. and to amazon stuff: this dvd has no relation with music or hip-hop
+18642,1,Old Webcam,"Pay attention to the dates of the reviews here. This was my first webcam. It's not bad, but do not pay more than $10 for this thing. You have to focus it by hand, by turning a very loose plastic ring around the lens. It has no built-in mic.In fact, the only reason I'm bothering to review this at all is that I noticed it is listed at this time as being $40 plus $10.95 shipping. You could buy 100 other webcams for that price that are MUCH, MUCH better than this thing. If you don't have a webcam already and you manage to find this one very cheap, then go for it. However, any $25 Logitech webcam (in 2009) will be a far better purchase with a lot more bells and whistles than the Veo Connect. I don't think this cam is even still being manufactured."
+18643,1,Everything you think you know about Custer,"is probably wrong. Including this movie.This ""movie"" from the 1967 ABC series ""Custer"" is just plain wrong in everything. Poorly produced, Indians all wrong even when the series was trying to make them sympathetic. Custer as a single man, no mention of family (which was the core of his life) because that would have been too restraining for the TV show.I gave it a 2 as a curiousity of the time.And FYI it's Wayne MauNder. Who went on to another tv western then disappeared. I believe he was a record producer into the 90's."
+18644,2,Supernatural just gets better and better,"As a huge supernatural fan I was super excited to see that the 3rd season was on DVD. This season was my favorite and the DVD met all my expectations. It has commentary from the cast, and lots of info about the show. I can't wait until I have next season in my hands!"
+18645,1,DRAGGIN ITS TALES,"The title is certainly appropos, that's for sure! In the tradition of such films as TALES THAT WITNESS MADNESS, TALES FROM THE DARKSIDE, etc. THE THEATRE BIZARRE is a collection of six stories that are truly strange.Unfortunately, I wasn't impressed by any of the tales. THE MOTHER OF TOADS is sloppily filmed and incoherent. I LOVE YOU has a twist ending, but is slow and monotonous in getting there. WET DREAMS is almost effective but gets muddled by the end. THE ACCIDENT is a misfit---it's not a horror tale and makes little sense. VISION STAINS is just dull and SWEETS is just repulsive.All in all, a waste of celluloid and time."
+18646,2,Very good.,Couldn't put this book down. Just wanted to get to the end. Forgot how much I liked the way the King writes.
+18647,2,The most captivating book I've read in years.,"This portrait of a young girl and her relationship with her mother was facinating. The author tells of the girl's awe and admiration for her mother yet wanting more emotionally from her. Mother's can be magical to young children. This story deals with the perceived mother and the real one. The girl is tough. Deals with situations poorly and well at times. Typical of life. Don't we all like survivor's? She is constantly sorting out the facts that are fed to her, as we all do. The author describes situations so perfectly I could put myself there. That must be what some readers didn't like. Fairy tale endings are boring and unrealistic. This book has stayed with me like very few others I've read."
+18648,1,WTF,I went on their website and the the 25 count co2 12g cartridges are $16.99 and why are these are $19.60 what is wrong with you CROSMAN WHY ARE YOU TRYING TO RIP ALL OF US OFF CHANGE THE GODDAMN PRICE BACK TO WHAT IT WAS BEFORE!!!!!!
+18649,2,Great for the kids!,This is a great value for the money. The kids were excited that their food stayed hot until lunch time; great alternative to PB&J sandwiches everyday.
+18650,1,"""Nice Voice- Awful Songs""","Easy to understand why she only had a couple hits, the songs here are awful, only 2 good ones worth listening to more than once.Downloaded the CD but after listening to all of it regret it as a waste of money. Unfortunate for now I'll never buy anything else by her."
+18651,1,A bit disappointing,"Rosie O'Donnell has chosen a fairly unique approach in writing this autobiography. Instead of giving a chronological account of her life, as most biographers would, she uses an internet relationship as the framework from which the rest of the story unfolds. Through this relationship we see how Rosie thinks and feels, the types of things she does, some of her dreams, we learn a bit about her children and also some of the things that have happened in her life. However, I found the path that her internet relationship took to be predictable, and the details of her ""inner world"" were too few to compensate for the lack of concrete facts and events that make up her life.I give her credit for writing this book entirely on her own, as so many celebrities use writers to help put their stories together. But had she taken a more conventional approach her story may have been a bit longer and more substantive."
+18652,1,Typical mid-60s Elvis musical,"FRANKIE AND JOHNNY is better than the previous two films (TICKLE ME and HARUM SCARUM), but that doesn't mean that it succeeds on all levels.Elvis looks quite comfortable in the costumes he wears in this picture, but the lousy dialogue and dumb plotline are anything but brilliant.The songs are okay, but nothing outstanding. Only ""Please Don't Stop Loving Me"" could succeed on it's own.It's not as bad as some of the other Elvis pictures of the era, but it's not an essential addition to anyone's collection."
+18653,1,Not Quite enough,"A little too loud, 250W Heat Lamp insufficient for our application - replaced with a Panasonic .7 sones, 1500W Heater, 100 CFM"
+18654,1,bugs,I had to return the trackball mouse to the store.All of the DirectLaunch buttons simultenaously activated on their own every couple of minutes.
+18655,1,Pure Fiction...do not buy if you're looking for professional text,"What a sham of a book. This should be retitled,Hardcore Collections: A financial guide for felons and hustlers.I returned it after wasting $10 and 30 minutes of my time reading it."
+18656,1,Out takes?,"This is strictly a curiosity item for the musicologist. It consists of one minute, highly repetitive phrases: basically Morrison fooling around with mini ideas. there is nothing memorable om the album though one can see links to later songs. The self-deprecating titles are a bit odd. I feel like a sucker for buying this on his name alone."
+18657,2,Excellently Written,Charmed was the most well written piece of entertaiment I have ever seen. It went out as wonderful as it began. I'm sad to see it end and happy to know I own all of the seasons which I will enjoy forever.
+18658,2,Very entertaining read,"I recently bought this book while visiting the Edison-Ford Winter Estates in Fort Myers, FL. It's an amazing informal history whose author is as interesting as his incredible subjects. Edison and Ford really come alive as people, and Newton gives a unique perspective on Lindbergh's oft-criticized WWII neutralitry stance. Newton's own participation in the Spirituality movement is especially fascinating. I can't wait for the PBS special!"
+18659,1,Watch Out,"I Purchased the Magellan RoadMate800 in January 2006. After six months the power pin which is used to connect the recharge adapter to the unit failed. The unit was sent in for repair and returned. Now one year later, once again the power pin connection failed. This time however, the product is no longer under warranty and Magellan wants to charge for the repair. Two friends own the same 800 model and have experienced the same power pin problem. This is an obvious flaw in the manufacture of the product which Magellan refuses to deal with equitably. Recently Megellan formerly a subsidiary of Thames Corporporation was bought out by Shah Capital Partners, LP, Ajay Shah, Managing Director headquartered in Santa Clara, CA. The unit itself works well and is as accurate as any units out there, however, the power pin problem is a major flaw which would not allow you to recharge your batteries."
+18660,1,too soft to hold up,"When I (Aben's wife) first got this foam roller I was excited that it was a little softer than the one I borrowed from my trainer. I could barely stand to roll my IT Bands at all on hers, so I liked that my body could handle this one better. The problem is that the foam in this roller compresses very easily. In only a handful of uses, I saw it compressing where I'd rolled on it. My husband has used it a couple of times also and it just keeps compressing. (I was going to return it but didn't get on it fast enough as my time ran out on the return yesterday.) So, 31 days in with maybe 14 uses total and the center of the roller is compressed to about 2/3's of the original diameter. It does not go back to normal, once the compression takes place, it's just that way. I would not recommend this foam roller. Spend the extra and get a better one. The length of it feels unnecessarily long to me also. I find myself desiring to cut it in half. Just sayin'."
+18661,1,It sucks but won't let go!,"I've heard so many rave reviews that when I lost my Purely Yours, I got this one (my son was not nursing so often by then). I was disappointed. My hand hurt from having to squeeze the pump. I guess I should expect that, given that it's a handheld manual pump. Well, I didn't think it would be that tiring. Both my hands were tied up when pumping both sides. The suction was too much. It would release, so I had to let air in every so often so my nipples wouldn't get sucked into the bottle! Well, it wasn't that bad, but it really wouldn't release. The output wasn't what I'd like, either. Maybe I'm just used to the electric variety. This pump would be okay for light pumping but not for working moms."
+18662,2,What is this gorgeous chaos ?,Just buy this album. 'Dry the rain' is the best song ever. 'Dog's got a bone' is close to being the best ballad ever. Each song is as original and unexpected as an earthquake. Push it out. Feel the Beta vibe.
+18663,2,most accessible in recent years,"Let me start by saying that I am a big Indigo Girls fan. I have all their CD's. When I first got this one I was really shocked by the cartoon layout of the artwork through the whole album, but it really is quirky and cute. I think it's a nice change and it goes well with the mood of the album itself.This CD is full of back to basics with the beautiful harmonies we have come to expect from Amy Ray and Emily Saliers. Overall it's upbeat and much more accessible than Come On Now Social or Become You, two CD's that had to grow on many people. I have taken to All That We Let In within the first two listen throughs and I already know that it's going to be in heavy rotation in my stereo in the coming months."
+18664,1,i can't recommend it,"it was cheap. it plays my ipod. it sounds very tinny.i would spend a little more and get better sound next time. i didn't think the poor quality would bother me, but it does and i find myself not docking my i pod in my office (where the dock is located) as often as i would if the sound were great."
+18665,2,OK Strings,"These ara OK, ...the only negative is that they are just long enough, ..dont leave room for error ...but so far so good, nice strings for the price."
+18666,2,Unique - Definitely Koontz,"Odd Thomas - a book, as I usually do on airplanes, that I picked up to read during a cross country flight. After a few out there kind of weird books from Dean Koontz, he comes back to his roots with Odd Thomas. Thomas is sort of like a psychic superhero who can see evil, and events that might happen. And, oh yah, he can see the dead Elvis. Any book with dead Elvis ghosting around in it is worth checking out. This book has it's villains, has a hero, has a tragedy, and has a great conclusion. Kind of a sixth sense type feel to this book, worth reading.Joseph Dworak"
+18667,2,Child loves this book!,"My daughter LOVES this book...in fact, she pretty much loves all things Charlie and Lola, so this book was a great find - especially since she will be starting school in the fall. LOVE IT!"
+18668,2,THE BEST HORSE MOVIE,This movie is above five stars!!! I have watched it a total of five times and I don't usely watch movies over and over but this one surely made me watch it more than once!!! It is the best horse movie I have seen!! This movie made me realize a totaly different way to see horseback riding!! The movie Second Chances is a very heartwarming video and you must she it your self!!!...
+18669,1,"Fun read, but light on substance...","I can see why other reviewers would be put off by the somewhat colloquial language in the book. I actually found it to be very readable as a result of said language. But you still have to cover the historical aspects of the Presidency. Less than 50 of 172 pages cover the actual presidency, and you don't get there until page 93. If you're looking for a more historical work, see Major Wilson's book from the Kansas University series."
+18670,2,masterpiece,"A stunning exhibiton of humankind. A masterpiece that's worth, without any doubt, spending $40.Carlos Costa"
+18671,2,everything i was expecting from this product,It was very easy to put together. It is very sturdy and there is plenty of room on it for my dog although he isn't really interested in laying in it......but my cats love it:)
+18672,1,Weak on Diesel,"This book is incomplete, vague, and generally weak when it comes to the diesel system it purports to cover. I'm having trouble finding a better book, however."
+18673,2,Economical and good quality!,"I have a small dog and we live in an apartment--thus we rely on piddle pads all the time. We have tried many kinds--cheaper ones and more expensive. We find these made by iris are very absorbent, and compartamentalize the urine, so it doesn't ""run"". My chihuahua and I love them!"
+18674,1,got wrong item,"We ordered three such hand exerciser, one of them blue, but we got a black one instead. We should be sent the right item."
+18675,1,Order the bigger one,Cats were fascinated initially but it was too easy to reach their toys. Order the bigger one - cats need a challenge.
+18676,2,Fall in Love with Jesus!!,"Dee Brestin and Kathy Troccoli have penned a very interesting book, whereby they characterize it as ""abandoning yourself to the greatest romance of your life."" With references to ""Sacred Romance"" by John Eldredge, this is essentially a woman's book, although I believe that men could benefit from its ideas.The purpose is to introduce readers to the ultimate love relationship of all time - a relationship with Jesus Christ. Using humor, contemporary love songs, real-life stories, and solid Biblical teaching, they both help women discover a life-changing intimacy with Christ."
+18677,1,don't bother,"I thought it was the movie - just a trailer. Don't waste your time, it's just a come on to buy the movie."
+18678,2,One of the Masterpieces of the Twentieth Century,"For me, there are probably only a handful of books or essays that I'd consider essential reading, and this is one of them. This is Camus in his mature years, and at his peak. Perhaps, one could sum it up as a flash of light, a stunning illumination of the inescapable duplicity of our human nature."
+18679,1,HORRIBLE!!!,"This is garbage.If you're looking for the same melodic flow in Mesmerize with songs like Revenga, Radio, Question, you won't find it here.This album is nothing but obnoxious teenage angst noise, which is VERY disappointing following such a piece of art like Mesmerize."
+18680,2,Suprisingly good,"I didn't expect much from this book, and I have to say that Mr. Aldritch does seem a bit of a prude at times. Still, what he has to say is important, and it seems that as time goes by he is revealed to be more right than wrong."
+18681,1,cheesy and cheap,"I have to say I was disappointed by this item. It came as a kit I had to assemble even know the ad was for an assembled item. The holes did NOT line up!!! We had a heck of a time mounting it with the whole thing a little wonky. If it was a $5 item, this would've been fine, but it's a little to expensive for what you get. Sorry but I do not recommend this item."
+18682,1,Underwater Blair Witch Project,"My husband and I love to snorkel and really wanted to like this - it is a decent ""home movie,"" and is about that interesting. There are some beautiful shots of beaches, a ""Waikiki Sunset,"" but overall, it was boring and a bit overpriced at $1.99. A book would be a better investment I'm sorry to say."
+18683,1,Pure selfishness,"Just because this woman wanted a baby and couldn't adopt because the adoption agency thought it would be too much of a risk, this dodo gets pregnant, causes her mother to lose a kidney and then dies like she was told would happen. Pure idiocy."
+18684,1,No where near the original,Sorry to say this was a total let down! It does not even come close to the masterpiece of Dues EX... I had to have it because of the first EX just was not worthy of the title or name sake. Don't be fooled this is not what you think it will be!!!!!
+18685,2,A Must Own,"If you're a hardcore NIN collector, then you already own this 2-VHS set. If not, but you're considering it, wait for the DVD version which will be released this fall. The DVD will contain all of the original material, and knowing Reznor, a whole lot of easter eggs."
+18686,2,LA girl in fashion landscape and a pretty turn of phrase,"Autobiographical, revealing, intimate, and touchingly confessional, like many first novels. Do we want to peek at the internal, frustrated and narcissistically driven lives of the sophisticated LA fashionable? You bet. Odd thing is Dana comes off likeable and sympathetic, think Shopgirl, think Pretty Woman. Do we have another voice for the romantically overstimulated hot set? Think High Fidelity and John Cusack. We'll wait and see. Look what happened to Michael Chabon with this kind of introspective, self-examination. Pulitzer Prize. Go Dana. Keep it up. I will buy the next one, gladly. You folks out there with your own literary minded yearnings - buy Dana's book. She could use the encouragement, the admiration, the movie deal."
+18687,2,This C.D has very interesting songs.,"This C.D has songs that other singers sing in as well as Billy Joel, such as: Ray Charles and Cindy Lauper. The music is very creative, some of the songs show great anger, such as: Getting Closer and Running on Ice. This C.D is well worth Buying. All of Joel's C.D.s are worth buying."
+18688,2,Handy & Functional,"Purchased this great little ""dolly"" to transport plastic tubs of books and materials; am very pleased. Is extremely easy to store, load, unload and folds back into its handy storage shape quickly and easily. Am finding it great for multiple home uses as well. Only tiny complaint I have is wishing that the handle extended more; find that I have to bend/reach down to pull or push it. Even knowing that, would still buy it."
+18689,1,I returned this,"Not that it is a bad product, but I could use my hands to get as much hair (shedding) off my dog, so I really felt this product would not benefit me."
+18690,2,Great buy for gender neutral,"I purchased this book the week before I had my baby and I absolutely love it! I was looking for a baby book that had the first 5 years to fill in along with options for celebrations, stories about how mom and dad met, birth story, etc. It worked out great. You can remove and change around the pages and it also has lots of space to add pictures along with photo corners. I had trouble in stores trying to find a gender neutral book as we did not know what sex we were having and this cream/brown color worked out great! The ink pad for hand/foot stamping is also really nice as in the hospital they only stamped my daughter's feet and not her hands, so I was able to do that on my own at home without a big miss. I definitely recommend this baby book!!"
+18691,1,reproduction,"it was a terribly poor reproduction, especially in the beginning. we stopped straining in the middle. very dissatisfied."
+18692,2,Great Price for the value,This smart cycle bike is very funny for children to ride and the games that they have to go with it are very good and helps to motivate the child to be both active and educated at the same time.
+18693,2,Cat calming spray,"Cats are sensitive animals and anything new in their lives can cause stress. When stressed, cats may relieve themselves outside their litter box, destroy furniture and household items by scratching and worst of all by releasing musky-smelling spray from the glands near their anus. Spraying is a prime reason for cats being relinquished to shelters. Feliway Spray is a pheromone that helps to calm cats during stressful times and keeps them from wanting to spray indoors. It also encourages them to use the litter box. It is easy to apply very sparingly via the spray bottle it comes in. The only negative comment I have about the product is it has a short life and any area you are trying to protect must be sprayed frequently. The Feliway Company also manufactures a diffuser that you can plug in like a room deodorizer/fragrance releaser. I think the diffuser is a good idea and we plan to try that soon."
+18694,2,Superb performances by Jewel and Nathan Lane,I've heard Nathan Lane's performance 50 times and still laugh at his superb portrayal of the lion. This guy is tops. Jewel's voice and modern slant to Somewhere Over the Rainbow is a must hear. You will not find a better source of entertainment. This soundtrack has it all. Hearing 'The Jitterbug' makes me wonder why this jazzy little tune was left out of the original motion picture.
+18695,2,Great way to organize your jewelry,"The amoire arrived within days and it was very little assembly. It is a beautiful piece of furniture that has a place for every piece of jewelry. Now, I do not have the junked up jewelry boxes! I can see every ring, necklace, bracelet and pin. I love it and I don't know why I waited so long to get one!"
+18696,1,Uuhhh....,"This Cd came into my way accidentally in a friend's house. It's glam in its worse performance, going from the cover artwork to the music itself. Well, there are people who like songs like ""After the Rain"", bu the question is: where is Nelson nowadays?"
+18697,1,OK WEREWOLF ENTRY! WORTH 2 1/2 STARS AND A LOOK!,"This is not a classic by any means,but I thought it had enough going for it to warrant a ""worth watching"" review. The story seems to teeter between serious and humor and that is it's major downfall. The cast does what is can with the material given to them. The DVD transfer looks good and worth checking out."
+18698,1,"Famous Quotes from ""Sniper 2""","Famous Quotes from ""Sniper 2"": ""We've got company!"" ""Let's finish this!"" ""Hey, that's a suicide missiion!""Look, it's still cool to see an actor at Tom Berenger's age pull off being an action lead in anything. He is the best thing about this movie.Enjoy!"
+18699,1,It's e-Waste!!!,"Our new neighbor has dogs that keep barking at us when we are outside in our yard playing with our kids. These dogs sound very scary and they frighten the kids. Sometime they would ram the fence like they are trying to get through. We bought this device in hopes that we can quiet them down a bit. We tried it a 15ft, 10ft, 5ft, and even at 1ft. IT DOESN'T WORK.We recycled it because we figured the time and cost to return it would have cost more than it's worth.BTW, I installed a new 9v battery and the LED comes ON when the button is pressed."
+18700,2,Not what you think but ok.,"Just finished this book, it tells a good lesson but I believe it is more meant for the child than maybe a grownup and working person.I admit this book does refresh that sense of get up and just do it feeling and the common sense that was already in you but really this book is better suited in the elementary school library.I will for sure be telling my kids this story one way or another."
+18701,1,Interesting but unproven theory,"The link this book makes between autism and diet is facinating and should be explored further. The link between MMR and autism has been researched endlessly and found to be untrue.As a parent of an autistic child I will try the diet recomendations. I have friends who tried the diet and while it did not help the autism it did greatly reduce the temper tantrums. It's certainly worth a try, but I don't hold out much hope."
+18702,1,basic-oriented book,ROI is a wide and critical factor in business management. The book title represents high expectations but didn't offer new thinking nor advanced models of ROI.ROI calculations should focus more on finnancial perspectives rather than verbal explanations. Using Excel in any ROI calculations is highly recommended!Dr. Hillel Avihai
+18703,1,just average,might be an ok book if you lived in the areanot useful for out of towners - hikes not too interestingmore popular and too spread out to be useful.
+18704,1,Several songs about killing animals,"I bought this CD for my toddler daughter in an effort to branch out from the usual children's music. Musically, the songs are fun to listen to. But a closer listen to the lyrics was off-putting for me.A number of the songs are centered around hunting, i.e. killing tigers, bears, geese. I am not anti-hunting (provided it is done responsibly) but I don't particularly want to sing songs about killing animals with my 2 year old! Particularly since we tend to sing along and she really pays attention to the words. If you share this sentiment, I would avoid this CD."
+18705,2,Excellent and accurate science fiction,Fasinating stories on the science side of science fiction! In fact some of the stories in this book were required reading in my undergraduate astronomy class.
+18706,2,Very Pleased,Service was prompt and the book arrived as described. I would definitely recommend dealing with this company in the future!
+18707,2,"ROMANCE, LUST, BSB IS BACK AND HOT!!!","This CD proves how amazing this band has been and will be. The tracks are very romantic and very harmonic as always. Check out: Lose it all, Climbing the Walls, Poster Girl... Amazing Sounds.. GUYS KEEP AT IT YOUR ALL AMAZING!"
+18708,2,Great Wall Scroll,"Still not sure why amazon wants me to rate the ""Educational Value"" of this. Its a Bleach anime wall scroll, great quality, I love mine. A lot better than those flimsy paper posters you buy elsewhere. This is a quality fabric wall scroll. Loved it so much I ordered two other scrolls."
+18709,1,Wrong part number was shipped,"The part shipped was not the part ordered, forcing me to purchase a poorer quality, but more expensive, aftermarket part (not EMPI) to complete the installation while at the service facility. Very discouraging."
+18710,1,omg sumbody shoot me,"ok hmm lets see, the first cruel intentions was the best its my favoret movie i will say i wont see this movie i havnt yet cuz it makes no sence in the first sebastion(phillipe) dies so wtf and y didnt they get all the actors back instead.Telling from the add for this movie the shower scene sebastion isnt the way he acts in the first DONT SEE IT I DONT PLAN ON IT."
+18711,2,A much different kind of p-funk,"I remember seeing this album at the record store and even though it warned that George Clinton did nothing on this album, I got it anyway!! I was blown away! This was not the Funkadelic I knew. I thought it sucked at first but when I heard ""The Witch"" & ""Who's A Funkadelic"", I got my funk fix without the ""P"". I sometimes wonder what would of happened if George had been a part of this?? A very good effort!!"
+18712,1,Useless,"This book has more than 600 pages.To the worst defeat of the British Navy in history, the siege of Cartagena, the author devotes exactly 6 lines."
+18713,2,What a Wonderful Idea!,"For those of us that are a bit artistically challenged...what a great way to design a rug of our own (with a little help, OF COURSE). My artistic ability is limited, now I can create a full-size rug and only have to pay for the price of my backing. This is also a nice resource book if a little something extra is needed in a rug or stuck on an idea for a border.I look forward to my compiling my first rug project using Ramona's wonderful ideas!"
+18714,2,Great little coffee maker,I am the only one in the household who drinks coffee. My little 4 cup maker was getting a little worn and dirty. At work I had a single cup press device that looked great but made the worst cup of coffee. I bought 2 of the Black and Decker Brew'n Go makers and am very happy with them. Easy to use and clean and makes a decent single cup of coffee.
+18715,2,pope joan,Although lacking any scientific evidence the book presents a very interesting scenario that shows numerous clues for its authenticity.The fact that the catholic church denies all references to Joan makes the subject all the more intriguing.I'd have no problem recommending it for a read
+18716,2,SMASHING RECORDING!,"If you were introduced to ""Cabaret"" by Liza Minnelli (like I was), I urge you to discover it again through this recording of the original cast. There is much more music, and when it is this good, you shouldn't skimp. Along with ""Don't Tell Mama"" and ""Perfectly Marvelous"" (which tell you more about Sally Bowles and her relationship with the male lead), you get a fully developed subplot via the landlady (played by the intriguing Lotte Lenya) and her Jewish suitor (""So What?,"" ""It Couldn't Please Me More,"" and ""Meeskite""). With the new bonus tracks, you also get the wonderful song ""I Don't Care Much"" (done energetically by Barbra Streisand on her second album) and the original finale ""It'll All Blow Over.""The film soundtrack with Liza is great, but this original cast recording is much more coherent. This is the rare show recording that tells a full story with the songs. It's quite a cathartic experience!"
+18717,1,Very disappointing,"I grew up with Judy's books- she needs to stay with writing pre-pub books-""Tales of Fourth Grade Nothing"". I read it to and from the beach-as soon as I got home I threw it in the trash-not even wanting any of my friends to even borrow it. I was left very empty and felt I wasted my time reading it."
+18718,2,Asking questions finding answers.,"This is not a book i would just by to ass to my collection, i had to get this for a college course. I recommend buying this product on here rather than in the college bookstore. It is delivered quick, and saves a ton of money. Buying this book here saved me about 70 dollars, and it was in great shape, better than the one i saw at the bookstore at least.On another note, the materials in this book are easy to understand, and it is a great resource."
+18719,1,Far Too Basic for a Book,"Get ready, here is the book's ""secret"": pay your bills and save more money.Yes, that's it. It is sad that financial journalists can get away with publishing such pithy, obvious advice. If you really are interested in practical ideas to conquer debt and change your life, read Dave Ramsey. This book is far too simple to justify purchasing it. Get it from the library."
+18720,1,Came to me already ripped in two places,These came as advertised and in a timely manner. What I didn't like was the tear in the elastic band (which functionally replaces shoelaces) on the right shoe. This causes the my right heel to come out of the shoe when I walk simply because the shoe is not tight enough. There is also a tear in the piece of canvas on the left shoe that holds the grommets. When I walk the hole opens up on the side of my foot.I'm wearing these because I'm in Afghanistan and have no other sneakers to use until the replacement set I ordered from another vendor arrives. Returning these would not be practical as it involved significant bother and cost using the military postal system. If the vendor had sent a non-defective pair of sneakers in the first place there would be no reason for this bad review.
+18721,1,touching spirit bear,"touching spirit bear was one of my most favorite books in all times.cole matthews,peter driscal,and garvey are the main characters.what happens is cole has the potential to beat up peter,and has to go to an island in southeast alaska. if you want to find out how this wonderful book ends you will have to read it.trust me you will love it."
+18722,1,Size and Price,"While I am sure the contents are as fullfilling as all Deepak's literature, I was not aware that this was a ""pocket"" size book. The caption read ""Abridged"" but I did not see anywhere that it said ""pocket size"". Not only that, the price printed on the cover was $3.50 but Amazon charged $4.95 (before shipping & handling) Buyers beware and get out your magnifying glass!"
+18723,1,Another annoying book of half-truths and prejudices,"Just once, I wish the people who churn out these amusing little handbooks on 'bad English' would do some basic research. For an example, on page 14, Cochrane says, referring to the titular phrase: ""This oddity, which seems to have emerged only in the last twenty or so years, presumably arises from a feeling of discomfort about using the word me, a sense that it is somehow impolite or 'uneducated.' ""Except that this usage goes back well over 400 years (Shakespeare uses both it and ""between you and me""), and has nothing whatsoever to do with hypercorrection or politeness. If it did, we wouldn't also see ""Me"" standing alone, as we do, not to mention ""Me and you"" in subject phrases. ('Myself', now - that does seem to be some sort of avoidance mechanism...)I recommend the Merriam-Webster Dictionary of English Usage's thorough treatment of this and other topics for those who want to know what's really happening with English."
+18724,2,absolutely gorgeous,"I was hesitant about ordering this item because I had never seen it in person, and returning it would have been a pain. This light is so beautiful. The picture of the light is a very good representation, only it is even more beautiful in person and when you turn the light on, man what a beautiful light!"
+18725,1,this album sucks,"please listen 2 me and don't buy this cd. i have buy it and now i just feel bad after listen to it. the reason that it bad is because christina write most the songs' lyrics. her writing is bad as well as the beat of the songs. i'm not being criticism but she should let the lyric to lyricists. although there are some good like "can't hold us down" "beautiful" "impossible" and "dirrty" but overall the bad outweight the good. if you bought this cd, i would feel sorry for you."
+18726,2,Definitely recommend,"I ran outside the entire winter with these on my sneakers and they work awesome in the snow and ice. I did go through a pair but with as much as I used them, it was to be expected."
+18727,2,A new addition to the game,"Unlike all the other Monopoly 'versions' that seem to be out there, this actually has an additional property per colour group, a third dice to speed up the game and some additional rules to cover the extra properties and 'skycraper' hotels.If you are a purist, the game can be played in the traditional way with just the extra properties. My family love this new addition because it is actually DIFFERENT to the normal monopoly not just a different coloured playing board."
+18728,1,Don't buy this,"Bought it and returned it the next day. Thought this combo was a good idea especially for travel, one less thing to pack. Quickly realized why this was so bad. First, the plates don't clamp down enough to straighten my hair and Second most importantly how easy it is to BURN yourself. since its also a curling iron it heats up around the whole area. Dont get your fingers too close or get too close trying to straighten the layer closest to your neck.. STAY AWAY FROM CURLING IRON/STRAIGTENER COMBOS!!!"
+18729,2,Great gift for sister!!,I got this gift for my sister for Christmas..she luvvvvved it!!! sprays on strong and then gets light...very soft and pleasant smell; but remember every perfume smells different on every person!
+18730,2,The beat that fell unto perfection,"Spaced between a somber album and world money maker, this album proves that the playing of Philip Gould was much like the force that keeps matter together.Each member plays well and the musicianship is very good for a live performance. But the crown jewel belongs to Hong Kong native, Philip Gould, who plays with a control and vibrancy that few could ever emulate and no one could ever match.No candle burns forever, but the light that burned off of Philip's playing on this CD shines with every revolution inside my CD player...He is just that good."
+18731,1,A shallow book indeed,"Griffith's exercise, meant to restore the glory of an eviscerated British military, is a shallow intellectual trip, decidely slanted with an agenda in mind that targets lesser-informed audiences such as wargamers rather than serious students of history. Mr Griffith's book will probably be used accordingly."
+18732,2,"Overall, it's really great","I was really happy to see this unique-looking whale pendant. A lot of killer whale pendants look like fat dolphins, but this one actually looks like an orca! Awesome!I was slightly disappointed in the differences between mine and the photo. The rostrum (nose part) of the whale in the picture looks really well done, but mine looks messy where it was soldered and is rounded like a beluga. Also, the loop at the top has a line down the middle, which is fine, but it is different than the photo. Mine also had a slightly sharp bit off side of the tail. Just be aware that the finished pieces aren't necessarily perfect, but for the amazing price, you really can't beat it!That said, I wear it often, almost every day. I love it because it looks like a WHALE. I love it so much that I got a second one to send to my friend who works at SeaWorld. She loves it too!"
+18733,2,doggie piddle pads,I have bought dog pads at several pet stores. These are much better and much cheaper when bought in bulk. I have three Maltese who are indoor only dogs so I do use a lot of them and will order these from now on.
+18734,1,"I couldnt help, but had to put it down","It seems to be a book for nurses, but definitely not for laypeople or doctors. I have worked on an ICU and I found the book- stilistically badly written,- way too long,- more an information textbook mated with a school-girl-diary than a good novel!I cannot recommend it at all. Save your time and don't buy it.(except you're a nurse and might recognize yourself in the story).Read House of God instead, it's brilliant!"
+18735,1,I wish I could go lower than 1 star,"This makes me wish I hadn't put The Places blah blah blah at the bottom of my scale. That CD is at least a 3 compared to this drivel. Read the review of Tops of Trees blah blah blah at IndieTabs.net to see a far more eloquent version of this review. Anyway, I have the same problem with this as with Dashboard... The ""acousti-fying"" of ""emo"" was done by the New Amsterdams slightly before Chris ""Carrabbas"" and it is the type of idea that is only decent once. Anyway, this band with the amazingly terrible name managed to screw up Dashboard's model. I don't know how you can get worse than Dashboard, but they did. This is music completely without a point."
+18736,1,Does not come with a proper brush case,The brush is of great quality as is typical for Purdy brushes. My issue is with the lack of a proper storage case that usually comes with any brush. This one comes wrapped in a pretty lame piece of cardboard without any velcro and it'll slide up and down if you don't tape it to the ferrule. I've uploaded a picture. A decent case is very important for safely storing your brush in top condition in the long run.
+18737,2,Satchmo's second career,"The songs on LOUIS ARMSTRONG * THE DEFINITIVE COLLECTION generally follow a regression from 1968 to 1938. The album's liner notes conversely provide details of Armstrong's most influential years: the mid-Twenties until his lip broke, while touring Europe in the early 1930s. The writer glows about Satchmo's influence on ALL subsequent musicians and vocalists, from Benny Goodman to the Rolling Stones! Truly a hyperbolic overview.But the music is what matters most. Armstrong adapted to the realities of losing his superhuman playing abilities by developing a more expressive style, and by concentrating on vocalization. This album documents well that second phase of his performing career. Source material is drawn from all major labels: DECCA, COLUMBIA, VICTOR, ABC-PARAMOUNT, KAPP and VERVE. Transfer quality is excellent. This collection is particularly recommended for newcomers to the music of Louis Armstrong.TOTAL RUNNING TIME -- 75:39"
+18738,1,it doesn't get any sicker than this,"Seriously, what deranged lunatic would appreciate this music. Just listening to the sound bites is enough to make my skin crawl. I felt like I needed to take a shower afterwards.This is just pure demonic works. Music? No. Force fed broken glass? Sick.I wish I could give this album and every single one a negative 5. Actually I wish I could remove every single album that every person owns and have a huge bonfire in celebration of the destruction of that crap.Would you want your son or daughter listening to that?Is that becoming of a person?If you could care less what your children listen to, that's the reason for the endless cycle of mayhem and violence we see today. Parents could care less, so children end up not caring, their children, and on and on and on. So sad.Parents, pay attention to what your kids listen to!!!If you find they listen to this stuff (crap), get them to psychological counseling now!! PRAY!!!This is the crap that breeds serial killers!!!"
+18739,1,not what I hoped for,"This wasn't at all suitable for a regular sized Kindle. It was much too small to see and the cartoons were fuzzy. I got the Kindle for PC and had it sent there where I could see it, but it just seemed like there wasn't much to it."
+18740,1,unnessesary humor,"This movie had some tacky lines in it that were just not nessesary. But this movie is not as much of a boy thing as I thought it would be. But it is a complete KID movie! I don't know of many adults that would find this movie funny, but it's a great way for kids to kill a couple of hours. Though I probably never watch it again."
+18741,1,Broke the first time I used it.,"I was excited to get this in the mail. I had a ton of sausage to make and couldn't wait to get started. This was slightly more powerful then the Villaware I previously owned so I thought it would easily meet my expectations. Unfortunately, it broke upon the first use. It would make this horrible screeching noise and then stop before I could shut it off. I then spoke to a buddy of mine who recommended the Northern Idustrial tool model and I ended up buying that and am super happy. I went from a LEM model that I sent back, to the waring then to the Northern one - each one cheaper then the previous and I am most happy with the cheapest one. Just goes to show you more expensive isn't always better."
+18742,1,Great teaser,"The idea and presentation by Iomega was great. However, there's been too many failures to make further purchases worthwhile"
+18743,1,You'll pray for this book to end.,"I shudder every time I read someone comparing this ineptly written piece to the captivating ""Sophie's World"". Yes, the concept is similar, but that is the alpha and omega of this muddle about the world's religions. Clement's characters are completely inconsistent (sometimes you can't tell if supposedly 14-year-old Theo should be wearing a diaper or a condom), unbelievable and unlikeable. Her thumbnail sketches of Judaism and Catholicism are filled with errors, so it made me distrust any of her takes on other faiths as well. Her finale of bringing all the different religions' mouthpieces together at the end is more like a community theatre curtain call than a believable ending. Two stars for her laudable goal with this book, and zero for her childish and condescending writing."
+18744,2,Hitachi EC12,I was surprised to received the Hitachi EC12 a day early. Unfortunately it had a broken filter box case. I called the company and the part was in the mail no questions asked. So far I have had this unit for over 3 years. The pressure control knob fell apart in my hand but a quick to the shop fixed that. I don't know if the knob failure was my fault or worn part. I do wish I had purchased a compressor with more horsepower but this one is a keeper. It does 87% of jobs I need.
+18745,1,metal smell and flavor,"I really wanted to like this machine. Besides the fact that I toyed with it to finally get the steam to froth a little bit of milk, which is hard because it is small, the espresso always tasted bad. By the end of the week, my espresso was unbearable, that's when I noticed the metal carafe smelled awful-- like lead or heated raw pipes. I had to throw it away. I don't know if my was defective but the metal aroma was too much. Will look for another model will rave reviews. That smell was so acrid that I can still sense it on my palate and in my nose. Barf!"
+18746,1,Poor Craftsmanship,"After reading many of the above reviews I decided to purchase this model today. I set it up and we were excited to make apple crisp for dessert. Into our 4th apple the ""cast iron"" portion of the crank handle snapped off in my son's hand, leaving behind a very sharp edge. My experience has been that cast iron lasts a generation or more, not 3.5 apples. I will take this back and find one that is made in America with some real quality. Learned my lesson!"
+18747,1,Single layer release in America!!!!!!!!!!!!!!,"While the European PAl format release is a DVD-9, i.e. a DOUBLE LAYER with 8.5 Gb of video and audio data, they used a DVD-5 i.e. a SINGLE LAYER disc for the NTSC release in America.This means video has been recompressed and a lot of quality was lost.I have not seen the PAL release, but I can assume the quality is so much better.The music is excellent, and the sound quality is very good despite the use of Dolby Digital instead of LPCM (CD quality) for the audio tracks."
+18748,1,Lousy,"The wireless intermittently cuts out completely (ie, the lights on the front indicate it is no longer providing wireless service), the port-forwarding completely broke in the latest version of the firmware, there are no docs for the updated firmware, even though the web interface has changed and added new features, and the docs have no information for using the router with anything other than Windows.Rotten, lousy, piece of garbage. The last Linksys product I'll ever own, that's for sure."
+18749,1,If you own an Itouch beware.,"Moviecenter for IpodFirst let me say I read the information on Amazon from top to bottom before I bought this. It clearly said this is for use with Video Ipods. My Itouch plays videos, so I assumed it would work. Wrong! It's nothing but a high priced charger. The instructions are extra pathetic and for the first time somewhere about 1995 when I started buying from Amazon, I'm feeling like I've received an item that was clearly misrepresented. Either there is a trick to seeing movies from your Itouch with this unit that I'm missing because of extra poor instructions, or it just doesn't work. I tried the yellow cable, an S video cable; everything I was able to and it won't show on any of our TV's. I apologize for being blunt, but spending $100 for nothing makes me upset. If you own an Itouch, skip this puppy."
+18750,1,"Great Fan I'm Sure, if it WORKED.","On a 98 degree day in the city, I opened the box and installed the fan in my window. When I turned it on, it didn't work. After checking all the outlets, etc, I finally had to take it out and send it back."
+18751,1,After [...] Investment Simply Did Not Work for Our Dog,"Maybe these work for other dogs but we followed the instructions closely they did nothing to reduce the size or duration of the brown spots left by our dog's urine. We went through 4, 8 ounce wafer packages [...] before throwing in the towel. After our efforts failed, we asked our vet for advice. He said he's never seen any of these products perform as described. Check with your Vet first before making this investment."

+18754,2,"Really great fragrance ""throw"".","This was almost too strong for me at first. I put it on the lower level of the house and it took away that ""basement"" smell for months. I was impressed with the ""throw"" this thing had. I would definitely repurchase."
+18755,1,Display too Bright,Purchased this unit and used for one night. The display is so bright it's like having a 30 watt bulb on your nightstand. And the display cannot by dimmed or shutoff. Returned for refund.

+18757,2,Very highly recommended for baseball buffs,"Opening Day At Great American Ball Park by Cincinnati Reds baseball enthusiast Dann Stupp is an exciting celebration of Cincinnati's Great American Ball Park openeing day. Dazzling colorful photography and a sprinkling insightful asides fill the pages of this visual celebration of the grand sport of baseball, as well as the athletes who strive to excel, and the fans who love the thrill of watching teams compete to be the very best they can. Opening Day At Great American Ball Park is very highly recommended for baseball buffs in general, and Cincinnati Reds fans in particular!"
+18758,1,Good Cause...Boring Romance...Sorry!,"I saw this book title memtioned on a few book club message boards a while back so I thought I'd try it, I'm sorry I did. The story is just plain boring. I didn't even finish it, it was that dull. Why all the hipe of this book I have no idea. Don't say you haven't been warned!"
+18759,2,Stunning!!!!!!!!!!,What A Deal!!!!!!!!! All This Great Music By A Fantastic Singer!!! There Are So Many Rare & Extended Songs Here It Is A Treasure Trove!! Buy It & ENJOY IT!!!!!!!
+18760,2,Vols switchplate,I love this design! It would look super on a white wall. The T really stands out beautifully.
+18761,1,Not the real deal...,"I don't know why I bought this book. It seemed like good fluff reading. It wasn't. I'm a New York City cop, and yes ESU does amazing things and they are invaluable to us. But the author spends the entire book rehashing none too exciting stories and kissing up to all the cops. Sentences like, ""These guys are the real heroes of the job."" are nice when uttered by some unknown sergeant in Brooklyn, but they keep getting repeated over and over. This book isn't really even worth this much typing on my part. If you're looking for fluff that glamorizes this job, then buy this book. If you're looking for a true and in depth account of the NYPD's special rescue and weapons capabilities, then keep looking."
+18762,1,Based on a true story,I was hoping this was a feel good based on a true story type of movie but boy i was wrong. It was depressing and the movie just dragged out. I love the true story and that he lived out his life on his own terms but i would've loved to see a different turn out on a positive note. The give the real christopher McCandless 5 stars but the movie gets 2.
+18763,2,Great pre-reading practice!,I want more books just like this that allow my 3-4YO son to start thinking about how words are spelled and sounding out the letters.

+18767,1,Who pays this man to write books,"Ekedahls books are not good books to learn programming. They are books that teach how to type code in the code windows and run and ""Look how well I can tell you to write a program"". Unfortunately you do not learn how to prorgam. You are lost and confused and looking at your classmate asking if they understand the class.For a beginner's book get Diane Zak's, It will save u time and money, stress, anger and hatred towards him."

+18770,1,"interesting, good photos","By original review was :I thought this would differ from the classic atlas format of dry statistics by emphasizing the people and natural world, but it doesn't. Check it out at the library before buying.But my daughter has read it several times and finds it interesting, so I see that I sold the book short."
+18771,1,Are you kidding me????,I dont know where these good reviews are coming from....this movie was absolutely senseless. I watched it based on the reviews and was exetremely disappointed.Edit: Had to edit some of my comments because they werent very nice or objective. They were right after I watched the movie. I will say though: This movie was pointless and without any clear plot. If you have never heard of this movie when it came out (like me) there is a reason. If you look on other sites for reviews you will find out how poor this film was actually rated.
+18772,1,"Nice features, poor implementation","To summarize what everyone else pointed out but I ignored:* this unit runs very very hot* this unit just stops working every few days and requires a full restart which _may_ make it work again.Don't get it. You'll worry in the back of your mind about the heat, and you'll be irritated with the constant reboots."
+18773,2,Looking for professional video/dvd about harry potter? it is,"Looking for professional video/dvd for your beloved harry potter? You've come to the right place. this remarkable item will live longer than all harry potter books together. why some people didn't like it? no question about it. harry potter is big but not quiet the same as this item. this short ""docu"" is bigger but different. How do I know for sure this one survive longer? Well, I asked a group of friends, nin all ages, to watch this cute movie with me and they love it. oh yes, they want to start again to catch the magic, and did they? I am not quiet sure about this, but if this unique item look and sound great what's the problem? I think you should buy it not as a harry-potter item but as a total stand alone video, this way It will make a worthwhile addition to personal library of any harry potter movie fan."
+18774,1,Very disappointed,I received this clay and it came dry. I had a hard time getting it workable. I had bought the clay to teach a Girl Scout troop about pinch pots. We added water to it to try to reconstitute it. Very unhappy.
+18775,2,So much going on..... Wild ride...,"A real trashing of the realm, and more to come! Started watching the show on HBO and when the season ended I could not stop.... Huge books with so much going on, great ride!"
+18776,1,Watch your language!,"We were watching this DVD with anther couple and we turned it off before we were half way through. The language in it is atrocious! Why do comedians think they have to use all that bad language to be funny. We could use more comedians like Red Skelton and Bill Cosby! I had Jeff's other DVD on order but canceled immediately after watching what I did of this one. Sorry, but didn't think the language is called for."
+18777,2,Austria 3: all three austrian nr.1 singers on one album,Austria 3 is the album which had two of my most famous singers on one album. Ambros and Fendrich. They are now together with another great singer called Georg Danzer. All the songs are sung together. And the singer whose song it is is singing several parts alone. It is a strange way of hearing this music sung by those three! If you like Austrian Music but can't choose out of those three singers. Why not take them all at once?
+18778,2,On our second one!!! LOVE this,"Okay so we've had ours for 6 or 7 years now. The clumsy oaf that lives in my house (DH) finally broke it and we had to get another one! $25.00 for 7 years of chopping bliss??? Way worth it.We kept the blade/chopper inserts from the first one, so now we have extras, got a new one and now our daughter is begging for one. This thing is the best kitchen gadget since..... you fill in the blank.I don't recommend trying to put 1/2 an onion through at one time (like the picture shows). I slice mine into 5 or 6 slices depending on the finished size I want. One at a time, this thing whips through an onion in seconds. I use it for all kinds of things. Tomatoes, bell peppers pretty much anything you want to dice or chop up.Recently started using the fine blade to mince garlic!!!! Love it.Try it... I think you'll love it."
+18779,1,A waste of money,"I bought this book as I am interested in pearls, and there is a fantastic photgraph on the cover. Well, you can't judge a book by its cover!!! It is poorly written, and full of factual mistakes. The authors are too gushy and breathless in their admiration for certain fashionable women, whom they regard as the last word in setting the styles for we plebians to slavishly follow. page 114 - The date for the Valentino film, The Young Rajah, is given as 1939. It was released in 1923, and Valentino was long dead by 1939. page 132 - ""Miss Scarlet donned a triple strand of pearls for her marriage to Ashley in Gone With The Wind (1939). Did I miss the point of the whole film??? page 61 - there is a photo taken at the coronation ball of Nicholas II. There are 8 assorted Princesses', Duchesses' etc, sitting and standing, but there are 9 names to fit to the women! Well, enough. I think I've made my point."
+18780,1,Very scattered-,"Some over the top bad songs. What is the bike song all about? Syd Barrett was cool, and wrote a weird song about a bike. Trey's song about a bike sucks. There are some great moments on this disc, and as always w/ Trey the musicians on the album are top-notch. The downside is, its almost painful waiting to get to them.I enjoyed most of his first album, and parts of Shine. This is easily his 3rd best solo album... Comparing it to Outside In by Mike Gordon, the album really has no flow. Be nice to see Phish get back together, but I'm afraid it would sound an awful lot like this, and that would be very depressing."
+18781,1,0 STARS: AWFUL!!,"""Freddy's Dead- The Final Nightmare"" is a terrible installment to what was a great horror movie series. This movie is a total joke just like the previous two sequels before it...this garbage, a horror movie?? Give me a break!! This movie is not scary...it's ridiculous!! I highly recommend sticking with parts 1-3, which are undoubtedly the only ""NOES"" movies that should have ever been made. This movie sucks...shame on the people that made this trash."
+18782,1,Disappointed in Product,"We bought this days ago, and it is already going back. An impromptu stop at the store for a walker for my 10mos old to take on vacation so he wouldn't be cruising all the furninture at grandma's house. After three kids, I was missing the old ones I had for the other two, but was tempted because of its simplicity and ""no battery"" thing...let me break it down:*time consuming assembly, had to hunt down screwdriver*it tipped over immedietly as the baby pulled himself up, so it only worked when I held on to either him or the front of the walker, making this not an independent toy*within minutes mailslot doors came off*now have to hunt for ""mail"" so it can all go back to the store*the ""adjustable"" traction worked on some floors in our home, but not all of themon the plus side, it doesn't run on batteries, is pretty basic and the baby loved playing with the mail slots while the doors stayed on. Either way, I am returning it and getting a different activity walker for him."
+18783,2,wonderful music,"this group (Eden's Bridge) is wonderful. this album is my favorite out of three that i own. their songs are very calming and peaceful. they always find a way to produce music in such a gorgeous way it just soothes the soul.i recommend this album and their others that i have, Celtic Journeys~All in a Life and Celtic~Reflections on Hymns. this is great music that you'll love to have for those chill moments in life."
+18784,2,My favorite book as a child,This was my favorite book as a child. This book sends a great message to children. It teaches them to be happy with what they have and how important family is.
+18785,2,RELIABLE RADIO,This is a great radio. I have had it for a very long time and I can tell you that this radio is one of the best that I have ever owned. Don't turn this one down.
+18786,1,The Last Mermaid,"It's really a collection of 3 stories that are all sort of related, but in essence it's boring and not very well developed."
+18787,1,loud,"We are using this in the entry hall of our house near the intake for the furnace. It is very convenient to fill (2 containers, 1 on either side), and you do not have the problem of mold building on the inside of the unit like the older canister humidifiers. However, I would not recommend this product if you have a problem with loud appliances. It turns on and off frequently and the lowest fan setting is still quite loud."
+18788,1,complete malarky,"This book kept on cropping up on recommendation lists so I finally caved in and bought it.This is nothing more than a monumental collection of pseudo-scientific nonsense! I work in the academic world and see people try to pull this stunt from time to time...only to be shut down by an informed audience. I guess this trick works for Sonnon because of the buffer of the internet and his cadre of yes-men.To be fair, the last few pages are devoted to an attempt to describe tricky breakdance/gymnastic moves.I still get bombarded with Scott Sonnon/RMAX recommendations, but refuse to pay for another of these overpriced disappointments."
+18789,1,Maybe I Got a Bad Apple...,"I've been a PC user for years and got fed up with the constant problems, so I made the jump to the iMac. After 4 weeks, I awoke to what some call The White Screen of Death and called Apple support. After an hour of button-pushing to no avail, the tech told me I would need to take the computer to an authorized service center. The nearest was 50 miles away. They couldn't really explain what happened, but they reformatted my hard drive, erased my data and billed me $77, even though I purchased a 3 year warranty, since ""it wasn't a hardware problem."" 3 weeks later, the hard drive has crashed again. Maybe it's bad luck or a bad Apple, but don't expect a panacea. If you live in a major metropolitan area, it might not be too much of a hassle, but make sure to back everything up. The visual design of this machine is truly beautiful. I just wish the computer would work.I'm writing this review on an HP Pavilion laptop that I've have for 7 months without problem."
+18790,1,nope,Very weak display - need to turn it just right to see numbers. Followed directions to the T and it apparently can't hold a calibration. It will be returned.Also an adventure just to get my hands on it. TWO WEEKS shipping!! I could have drove it to my house faster.
+18791,1,No features at a premium price,"Mean Machine is an absolutely awesome movie. It's funny and entertaining in its own right, but for a soccer fan it's got so much added value, with both realistic and out-of-whack soccer moves galore.So why do I give this DVD 1 star? It should be obvious: On the back cover: ""Special features: English Dolby 5.1 Digital Sourround Audio, English Subtitles"" SPECIAL FEATURES??? Who the (..) do they take us for?? Not even a trailer. And there could have been so many cool things, like out-takes and the actors practicing their soccer moves...And how much do they want for this absolutely bare DVD?(....)! At a time when the feature-packed Terminator 2 Ultimate Edition DVD is available for a lower price, that's a bit much.In short, this is an awesome movie, but don't encourage this kind of exploitation by buying it."
+18792,2,Excelente e interesante,"Muy pero muy interesante lo acabo de leer, y me encanto es realmente bueno te ensena mucho al menos a mi me ayudo muchas de las citas que se encuentran en este libro como no conformarse, si deseas algo luchar por ello, la importancia de la parte espiritual de cada persona que a pesar de las dificultades que puedas estar pasando siempre puedes tener esa paz que necesitas y de como a veces las personas con las que te encuentras en este camino de la vida pueden hacer una gran diferencia en tu vida, te hace pensar y meditar de lo que realmente vale y hace que aprecies mas la naturaleza , lo existente y lo que tienes. Creo que lo volveria a leer muchas veces mas."
+18793,1,Very Dangerous Device,I bought this 3 in 1 cable yesterday and hooked it up to a SATA drive I was trying to remove data from and the adapter fried my drive instantly. This is a very dangerous product and i don't recommend it to anyone.
+18794,1,Mouse is good but there are problems,I bought this mouse about 2 months ago. It seemed to work fine but after a month and a half my wrist started hurting regularly so I switched back to my trackball. My wrist is fine now. Its very handy with the multiple programmable buttons but the ergonomic part if it doesnt work for me.
+18795,2,Good memoir,A rather harrowing story of a famous Irish writer's life. I saw the film Nuala first and really enjoyed it so I got the memoir which isalso excellent
+18796,1,These wire don't come in 100 ft spool,"I'll second all these previous reviews about these wires don't come in 100 ft per spool. I ordered two 100 ft spools, one spool comes with only 80 ft, and the second one comes in two pieces:60 ft and 30 ft. I've concluded the manufactuer don't have the intention to fix the problem. If you can live with the quality control of the footage, these wires appear in good quality and the price is reasonable."
+18797,1,Save your money,Redundant strokes! No discusion of paint types; very low on wall preperation; no help on how to paint a ceiling. Two hours of how to move your brush and roller and not much else.
+18798,2,Painfully beautiful,"A book about love, loss, dissapointment - a girl's frustration in life - and the experience of Death, too early in her adolescent's life. Written with sensitivity, in a ""painfully beautiful"" prose that is almost poetry."
+18799,1,Thomas Echo Tunnel Review,"Add our family to the list of disappointed folks with this Echo Tunnel. Same scenario: batteries die, replace them, but Echo Tunnel no longer works. It has sat quietly for over a year, and now I am going to take the Phillips head screwdriver to take it apart, get someone to diagnose it, and see what in the world is the problem. Too many failures reported here. A recall is surely in order. Most Thomas toys work well, are incredibly durable and pleasing to children. This Echo Tunnel is a dud as you will see from other reviews. VERY disappointing, particularly as manufacturer has no admission of problems from everything I've tried to search on Google. Worse, the product itself has no identifier except a very small ""2006 Gullane"" in one small space."
+18800,1,Unpleasant Heroine,"The ""puzzle lady"" is such an annoying, unlikeable character that I was completely turned off by this book. She's an alcoholic whose actions while drunk are supposed to be cute/funny -- browbeating the bartender who won't serve her anymore, fumbling around trying to make phone calls, staggering. Not to mention planning to drive while completely intoxicated. Who finds that sort of stuff humorous anymore?I enjoyed the small town atmosphere."
+18801,2,Get mentally lost and feel the music!,"The first time a friend turned me on to this album, I thought it was vinal and the turntable was out of kilter! It only took a few tracks for me to completely fall in love with Loveless.""Only Shallow"" brings tears to my eyes; it's just so beautiful and full of emotion. ""When You Sleep"" is my 2nd favourite track. However, to be truely appriciated, you need to listen to the entire disc track by track in a candlelit room with insence and someone you love."
+18802,1,Did not receive what was paid for,"I ordered a ""new, in the box"" DirecTV receiver. I received an obvious used one that could be detected by the condition of the ""new"" box and the torn and ripped plastic covering around the receiver. I probably would have kept and used the receiver knowing that it wasn't new upon a proper adjustment, but the receiver was missing the access card, making it useless. I sent the receiver back and am waiting to see if my credit card is properly credited.I will not order from this site again."

Three dollars for a pack of cigarettes is a small price to pay compared to what you could losing playing poker while fretting over a cigarette.""Again, this was Ken's ""Hot Tip."" If you want to find out how to improve your play, skip this book. And if you're a smoker, I'm sure you don't need someone telling you when to buy cigs, especially in a book that isn't even related to smoking cessation."
+18805,2,Suprise Delight,Very entertaining 30 min flick. Very funny and brings back all the characters of the original Madagascar films in good taste. defenietly a must buy for all Madagascar fans.

+18807,1,One of his least memorable albums...,"Long time Ice Cube fan but I hated this album. Too much ""Kill Whitey"" stuff and the beats weren't as good this time around. AmeriKKKa's Most Wanted is still his best. The NWA dis track at the end is good though."
+18808,1,Not as good as it used to be...,"My children and I have eaten Annie's macaroni & cheese for over ten years and loved it. So it was to my dismay when I began to notice in the last year that the flavor was obviously reformulated to be much weaker. The directions were also reconfigured. It used to be 2 tablespoons of butter and 2 tablespoons of milk; now it calls for 1/4 cup of milk, which is why the outcome is so runny and yucky. My children have never eaten Kraft mac & cheese, so we were comparing the difference in taste with the original Annies. I honestly expect that my family will wean themselves of Annies mac & cheese because the flavor is that disappointing and bland."
+18809,2,Most Excellent Tea!,"This makes a very satisfying cup or pot of tea. It's smooth without being weak, and is a lovely pick-me-up as well as whatever the opposite of that is -- a settle-me-downer? Anyway, highly recommended."
+18810,2,my 2 cents,"fun and a laugh riot to see people's faces when they smell it. however it didn't smell anything like a fart, more like an old turd baking in the sun. i would recommend this product to anyone who loves to laugh-greg"
+18811,1,Hard to Spin and Not Fast at All!!,"Luckily, I didn't pay the outrageous price for mine. I was given one free. But I was surprised when I got it home that it was so small and oval, not round. I remembered them being a lot bigger when I was younger. My 3 1/2 year old was able to get it moving, but not very fast and she seemed too big for it. It doesn't work well on carpet. We had to move it to the kitchen linoleum floor for just a bit more speed and even then it was pretty slow. My 19 month old couldn't spin it himself at all and I think it frustrated him. The other thing is the Simon Says game gets annoying after awhile. The kids just want to spin and don't always care about the game playing. I suggest leaving it off. I feel bad for anyone who paid a ridiculous amount of money for such a cheap toy. I hope my review will help others and save them some money."
+18812,1,I saw this live,and it was not remotely close to being a great Traviata. Fleming did not project well; Villazon seemed stiff and nervous; Conlon is clearly not an accomplished Verdian conductor; the sets were average at best.Too many USA people just give any Fleming performance an inflated rating because she is attractive and is from the USA.
+18813,2,new life to old (new) beetle,"being an ex-mechanic, I found this book to be quite good. I use it every time I need to do some work on my VW Beetle. It might not be for the beginner mechanic or somebody that is not mechanically inclined like a haynes or chiltons book. But it definitely has more information in it regarding your particular vehicle then the others. I've used the others also, but nothing beats the actual service manual for your car, it has the trouble codes, electrical wiring diagrams and other information that the others don't include. Get this manual and keep your new beetle running strong."
+18814,2,I loved this CD!,"In moments of creativity, you can only hope to put as much of yourself as possible in your work. That's what Paula Cole has achieved with ""Amen"". In this eclectic mix of funk, pop tunes, and bluesy numbers, you not only hear and feel her struggle for love, inner peace, political righteousness, and a life of spiritual meaning - you want it too. Honestly, there are a few ""fillers"" in the album, hence the 4 star rating. But with evocative tracks such as ""I Believe in Love"", ""Amen"", ""Pearl"" and ""Be Somebody"", these ""fillers"" are forgiven. In short, Paula Cole offers a musical reflection of herself and ourselves as well in our struggle for harmony in our personal relationships, our humanitarian responsibility in the world, and our spiritual balance in the universe."
+18815,1,poor projection display,"clock is fine, the display on the ceiling 6' from the clock is only 2"" tall and not real bright."
+18816,2,Always the Best,Gets better all the time. Still keeps you wanting to see more. The best series on TV.
+18817,1,Please enter a title for your review,"Faceless reverb-drone overproduced alt-rock. I guess i can't say it's not pleasant, but it sounds like the whole album could have been made with synthesized samples rather than actual instruments and most of the composition rigidly adheres to basic commercial formulas at the expense of any memorable hooks or distinct melodic impact. It's completely mechanized and personalityless, approaching music as a product rather than art."
+18818,2,Beautiful shoes,"i have 2 MIA shoes and they r both amazing and comfy and are the true size. these ones were really nice but i felt that the color was a bit fadded, from distance it feels like its multi beige not leopard...but they are nice from near"

+18824,1,"Good Looks, No Substance.","Ordered my monitor a few weeks ago based on positive reviews and attractive styling. I have used it for business applications, watching movies, and photo editing.* My monitor featured 2 stuck pixels.* It gives an incredible strain for the eyes, except at the lowest contrast setting. I've used LCD monitors for 6 years, and never experiences such discomfort before.* Background illumination of the screen is not uniform, and changes significantly with the vertical viewing angle. The published vertical angle specification is a joke - my monitor is not even close to meeting it.So far it has been a major disappointment, and i would not recommend this monitor."
+18825,2,I have no idea why...,"I don't know why I liked this movie. It was stupid, but stupid in a campy funny way. Rent it - save it for the $1 rental, but give it a try... great for a lazy afternoon when you just need a laugh or few."
+18826,1,He should be ashamed,"Perused this in the bookstore on a lark. There are two primary problems with this book:a) The book is primarily an advertisement for his website, where you can get the ""real"" information, for only $400.00b) There is a genuine risk that people will die or otherwise suffer harm by being misled into avoiding genuine treatments for afflictions."

+18828,1,Not working after 6 months,"We had only used this Walkman a dozen times when it started to malfunction. The CD would play on batteries for 10 minutes, and then start showing that the batteries were low and it would stop playing altogether. Our batteries were new and we tested them. Put in new batteries anyway, and the same thing happened right away. Sony customer service only suggestion was to buy Sony AA batteries! Frustrating!"
+18829,1,Not good help for resumes,"The book suggests using indents and tabs to make a resume. Using tabs would make things bump around strangely if you edit or change font. No mention of using a table and turning off the lines to make placing text and editing easy. Resume they do make is not a great-looking document, and has (for my field) awkward formatting (like the year buried at the end of the line). No mention of Word's online resume templates. I'd hoped to have this book as a reference for students, but the suggestions in here are things I'd tell them NOT to do. Skip this book. Get a good book on using Word, and Robin Williams excellent book on graphic design tips, ""The Non-Designer's Design Book""."
+18830,1,Cliched hack work without a single graceful quality,"I only looked up the reviews for this book to enjoy seeing others dump deserved scorn on this book. Imagine my suprise when everybody loved it. My initial thought on this book, besides thinking every plot twist was stolen and unartfully retold, was that this book should be a great boost for aspiring novelists - the bar is not as quite as high as you thought. Now I don't pick up a crime/thriller book for literature, but I do expect a little wit and originality. I remembered the Rockford files as having at least a little of these. This book does not. I plan to pick up this book again - maybe I am the one who is crazy - but I could not believe the estatic reviews."
+18831,2,not bad for a 3 hour movie,i have never seen a movie with diane keaton so young but she has grown into a beautiful woman. she looks better now then she did in this movie. the movie is really long but it is well worth it. i loved the end of the movie when she looks over. and i can't wait to see the rest
+18832,1,Down home on the range country honkey tonk reviewer,"This album is a big dissapointment. I have listened to Garth for years and I can't seem to make any sense of his ramblings that would confuse the untrained ear. If I wasn't a die hard fan of his, I would say that this albums sucks the big one. There isn't anything honkey tonk about this album; do not listen to this if you are new to Garth or you will definately be dissapointed."
+18833,1,Failed after two weeks,This power window regulator is craptastic in every way in what a good power window regulator ought to be. The upper cable broke off from the upper pulley wheel just after two weeks it was installed.
+18834,1,UMMMM,NOT A BAD CD BUT NOT THE BEST. HER VOCALS DON'T COMPARE TO THE ORIGINAL SINGER JANET'S VOICE. THE LINE UP WITH ONE ORIGINAL MEMBER IS AS SAD AS TRACII GUNS LA GUNS
+18835,1,Not what I was expecting,We currently upgraded our phone system to a VOIP Shoretel solution and bought 20 Plantronics CS50 USB Headsets for our call center. Initially the volume was too low to even hear the callers voice. We adjusted our phone system to the max (were told nobody has ever gone above a 3 and we are at an 8 max) and all the Windows volume settings turned as high as they can go. At this point the volume is acceptable but nowhere near what it should be. When contacting Plantronics support they advised us to buy there newest model out. NOT WHAT I EXPECTED!!!
+18836,1,"I regret the purchase, this model has a known issue","I wish I'd read more reviews before purchasing this set. The minimum volume on digital channels is loud and irritating, too loud to hold a conversation, to use the sleep mode, to read a book, or browse the web with the tv on in the background. (In loudness, it's equivalent to turning up the volume to 50% of the full range while playing a DVD.) This happens using an ordinary indoor rabbit-ears antenna, not through a cable box, satellite connection, surround-sound system, or any other device or amplifier. It applies to all programming on all digital channels, not just commercials. Sony Tech Support seems to be unaware of the problem, but I've found it mentioned in several consumer reviews."

+18838,1,Not what I thought,I did not like the movie and lacked everything from the first movie that one was great so I thought it would be as good but not.

+18840,2,Fresh perspective on positional chess,"I picked this book at a recent Malaysian local PCMM open in Kuala Lumpur. I was interested in the title having read ""Excelling in Positional Chess"" by Aagard.The chapters started with analysing chess space: Strong Weak Squares, then continuing to Files / Diagonals, 1st and 2nd ranks and outposts. The other chapters discusses specifically on the strenghts/weaknesses of each piece: King, Queen, Rook, and Minor Pieces.I admired his excellent analysis as he is able to illustrate the pivotal square(s) being subtly fought for, and the possible variations. Remember these are GrandMaster vs GrandMaster games and not Amateur vs Master. For those still stuck between 1500-1900, I believe this would be good book to rub off ""grandmaster"" techniques on your play.However if you are still being caught with opening traps, and knight forks; you are probably under 1500; you should look at other beginner books.Malaysian Chess tournaments - watch out for me this year !!"
+18841,1,Save Your Money,"This game was enjoyable for the first two hours and then its fun factor quickly went down hill. It is far too complicated to figure out the right combination of car, color, license plate, etc that is needed to race the different groups. For Japanese street racing geeks that is probably their idea of great fun, but it's not mine. I regret buying this game."
+18842,1,Give this machine negative 5 stars,This machine worked twice before it stopped spraying water and solution from the machine. I went online and read some reviews and found that it is famous for soap clogging the lines. I got rid of this piece of junk and bought the Hoover steam cleaner off HSN and LOVE it! It works great and even has a blow dryer underneath which dries the carpet fast. Save your money and DO NOT BUY THIS PIECE OF JUNK!
+18843,1,Boring,"It seemed that this movie was made to answer a lingering question from a previous movie but, it did not answer the question. I will avoid this director in the future, he has stung me once. However, if you are learning French it is not too difficult to understand. The characters speak clearly and they do not use a lot of much slang so it is good for practicing your French."
+18844,1,Program is great but CD's are a waste of time,"I don't know who wrote it originally, but I concur: the software program 'Family Tree Maker' is great. It's easy to use, offers a variety of ways to organize your family data, and lots of options for printouts. But you will be wasting your time and money to purchase any edition with the CD's. In the first place, you'll be wasting your time viewing the CD's. I've studied about 15 of them and never found one piece of pertinent information or genealogical leads. However, if you insist on looking, then go to your local LDS Family History Center where most of the CD's are available for viewing. A better use of time at your local FHC would be to study the materials they have available. In addition there are live people working there who are both knowledgeable and helpful and who can and will answer most of your genealogy questions."

+18846,2,Awesome movie,Awesome movie rental! I enjoyed watching as much as my 2 year old did! Would definitely recommend to others too!
+18847,1,Preferred other Carr works,"I picked up the hardcover since I loved THE ALIENEST and ANGEL OF DARKNESS by Caleb Carr. The author weaves a tale about Conan Doyle's beloved famous Sherlock Holmes.I'm a little tired of Holmes' brother Mycroft showing up in Holmes fiction. The settings are atmospheric, and the Victorian time period involving. But overall the plot plods along so slowly it was like watching grass grow to get through it.Carr doesn't come close to Conan Doyle's amazing talent of crafting a complex intelligent mystery. Nor impressing us with Holmes' wicked skills of reason and deduction. Things are just sort of figured out or come to light and it's all rather unsatisfying to the reader.Then just when it got a little good, the novel is over.Recommended: Laurie R. King's Mary Russell & Sherlock Holmes series"
+18848,1,DO NOT PURCHASE: Poor Durability and Customer Service!!,"I purchased this horn, had it professionally installed, and it worked great for 4 months! Then it started to not work when it got hot. Finally, 2 months later it died. I had the wiring checked and there is nothing wrong with the installation. The device just does not hold up. I called Amazon and they were no help on getting me a replacement. Finally they gave me the website for the manufacturer. I left them some feedback and 2 weeks later have not heard from them. I told Amazon not to sell this product any more. If you are reading this, they still are. I strongly suggest you NOT purchase it!"
+18849,2,This is the best one,"I have both this one and The Defnitive soul collection, The reason I like this one better is because most of the songs are in True Stereo while the collection only has a few in Stereo, Yes, Most are in Mono. So if you want them in Stereo, get this one!!!"
+18850,1,bad quality recording,"The workout itself is fine, pleasantly structured like a class yet doable at home without a barre. However, the recording is terrible--80's style and grainy, off colors, horrid sound with twangy, strung-out notes much like an old turn of the last century silent film. MUCH better are NYC Ballet workouts 1 and 2: Stunning visually, high quality, great workout."
+18851,2,Great Toy,"My kids use this toy at their daycare. My 3 year old got it as a gift. All 4 of our kids fight over it --even the 14 month old. It is a great toy/puzzle. It's a much better choice than all the other ""commercial"" toys."
+18852,2,Has John Lennon reincarnated as a Swede?,"I say that with respect. This really is an amazing album, replete with instrumentation and production straight out of the glorious 60's. They had to have recorded this with vintage instruments, mixing consoles and analog tape. Their singing and playing may evoke The Beatles, but you won't hold it against them. Truly, Dungen has taken whatever influences from the past and made them their own. I am impressed. Make sure you buy this edition, as it comes with a bonus disc of more groovy sounds."
+18853,1,Boring.,"Saliva don't take any chances with their music, their lyrics are cliched, and anyone who is a fan of ANY type of music can find better examples of it than what they do here. They do not bring the rock like bands like Queens of the Stone Age, The Hives, Foo Fighters etc. They definetly don't play heavy music like bands like Pantera or Slayer. And if you are looking for moody and insightful lyrics go buy an Alice In Chains album."
+18854,1,Buy only if you can't wait for an official release,"I was appalled that these 1960's TV cuts were released to DVD. When I bought this set, I was hoping for the original Columbia releases but no such luck. I suppose these are better than nothing, but barely. When (or if) Columbia puts out an offical release of these great films, I will promptly throw this set in the garbage where it belongs. Why these films were butchered in the first place remains a 40 year old mystery to me. And that opening theme song they came up with is like listening to fingernails on a blackboard! Very disapointing!"
+18855,2,Amazing zoom lens,"I take a lot of motorsport and wildlife photos. Whilst this lens has its limitations, it is pretty impressive for amateur usage. I've used it with a D40 body and frankly you'd need to spend thousands of dollars more to improve on the imagery."
+18856,1,him music cd,"Good cd, but it had most of the same songs on that like three or four of their cd's have on them. So not happy I bought basically the same cd with a different cover on it..not cool at all. Gave it away."

+18859,2,As useful a memory guide as a hunting trophy,"One should not get the idea that the ""camps"" depicted in SAFARI STYLE have anything to do with the experience of safari. I have stayed in both tent and cabin camps and they were comfortable. They were not, emphatically NOT, anything like these. However, after safari is only a memory and an anticipation, a room decorated with ideas put forth in this volume will help soothe the longing until you can really go back. Whether your goal is to compile your memories in photos, watercolors, or traditional heads and horns a ""trophy"" room decked out in Safari Style will end up being the most satisfying in the home."
+18860,1,Fake,"I've had an ear blockage for a while now, and after reading he glowing reviews on this product I thought, what the heck, I'll give it a shot. I burned one in my ear, the other by itself as a control.-Imagine my elation when I cut open the candle from my ear to find gobs of orange-brown wax inside. It worked!-Imagine my despair after I cut open the control candle to find... the exact same orange brown wax.-Imagine my anger when I realize I had been scammed.Don't trust the positive reviews folks, they are either shills for the company or have never performed a simple test to determine the legitimacy of the product."
+18861,1,TaxCut Will Load Last Year's TurboTax Data,"Having read the reviews here, I skipped TurboTax, and went directly to TaxCut this year. Program works wonderfully, and--as the review title suggests--TaxCut will automatically load your personal data from last year's TurboTax return. Couldn't be easier to swap programs."
+18862,1,A little better than her other book,"I bought this book and the author's previous book on the strength of reader reviews promising a funny and interesting book. What a disappointment! I found no true or original humor in it. I also noticed that the author hadn't kept track of details in the previous book - Kit's eyes changed from green to blue, and Jack Rhys' entire personality underwent a metamorphosis. This is not a polished product at all. I will not buy her books again."
+18863,1,About Year Rusted,"Oddly enough it rusts in only two places. One place you can scrub off the rust with a brush. However, it also rusts in place where the little sharp wheel is connected. There is a small hole (you can see it in the picture) and it's gotten so bad in there that it's about to rust through. I gave it two stars because it is extremely functional and easy to use. But I can't for the life of me understand why they would design this so that the reverse side of the cutting wheel is exposed inside a small hole?"
+18864,2,Good Review For a Gift,I sent this to my sister as a gift for the holidays and New Years Eve and the review from her was that she and all the guests at her house loved these before and after dinner liquor filled chocolates...... Nice gift to be shared with many people.

+18866,2,"Great live show, good DVD too, but...","I also saw this show at the Queen Elizabeth Theater in Vancouver B.C. Canada, and its about time too, I'd been waiting since 1983 to see these guys. Wow, what a terrific show... I was not dissapointed at all!Onto the DVD... Its just OK. Why just ok? Well, there was plenty going on up on stage that was missed on the DVD.Like the obviously staged fight between Peter and Daniel. They must have done that at every venue.Also, the end credits roll during the best song on the damn DVD.And... whats with the bizarre CGI morphing effects?!? You didnt notice it? Watch the DVD again then.Aside from those gripes, I give the DVD 4 stars because its the Bauhaus! But why is it the only DVD available?!?!Hint Hint!! Lets have Archive and the rest that are on VHS on DVD finally!!"
+18867,1,Relying on Past Glories,"Whilst this CD is by Paul McCartney (and friends) it seems that he has fallen into the trap of relying heavily on Beatle songs. Surely Paul can come up with something original after all this time. I also feel that his voice is not up to previous offerings but I appreciate that singing 'live' can place stress on the voice and that fans may want him to include such songs 'live'.Overall a pleasant CD, especially if you attended one of the shows, but not worth rushing out to buy, especially if you have the original tracks. One for Beatle fans only, in my opinion."
+18868,2,well sung and energetic,"True, the Russell Hithcock of 2004 doesn't look or sound like he did in 1984. I think its on account of something called REALITY. Some of the high notes are no longer there. But he still sings great and sounds great in the voice that he does have and that's enough to deliver these songs to a very appreciative audience. Graham Russell still sounds the same with his relaxed delivery. All the big hits from the 80s are given good performances and the newer songs prove to be just as good as the more familiar ones. Some of their best work has been done on releases from 91 onward and I for one would like to hear more of those songs on the dvd."
+18869,1,Verbose Ad Nauseum,"I appear to be in the minority with my dislike of the book Spock's World by Diane Duane. I have read other Duane Star Trek novels and suffice it to say this author gives you three pages of irrelevance to one page story. I like a little background as mauch as any reader, but Duane does so excessively to the point that she is the literary equivalent of a person who likes to hear the sound of their own voice. Descriptive to the point that you can't see the forest for the trees."
+18870,1,Too Dim to See,"This item was a disappointment. While I liked the size of numbers on the screen, you could hardly see them. For some reason, instead of four AAAA batteries, you could only put in three. The designers goofed on this model. I think the unit is underpowered. No matter what angle I put the screen, the numbers were very difficult to visualize."
+18871,2,"Decent, but short","This game is pretty darn fun, but unfortunately, too short... Anyone can finish it in 3 hours flat, which doesn't justify its price.The gameplay is great!Overall, a good game, but too short."
+18872,2,"Well written, great story, don't read if you've watched the show","To summarize: I love Dexter the television show. Fantastic writing, great story lines, great mystery and suspense. I was dying to read the book that started the show. The book itself was very well written however having seen the TV show up to Season 3, the book was almost pointless to read since the storyline was close to the same. The ending of the book is different than the end of Season 1.I would definitely have enjoyed the book more had I read it before watching the tv series. I can't wait to finish catching up on Dexter season 3-5. This is the first book I've read though that the tv show/movie is better than the book but only because the series has so much more ""story"" to it."
+18873,2,Charger for Motorcycle,"I purchased this charger to support my motorcycles battery when not in used. Motorcycles as many know should be driven at minimum once a week to maintain running conditions. I noticed my motorcycle was not starting up 100% like it used to when I first purchased the machine. I also noticed I had to kill the auxiliary lights from time to time to get it to start.Once I purchased this Battery Tender and installed the cable directly to my battery terminals per the supplied connection. Its a 1, 2, plug in and I'm done and the battery is being charged. This Tender will get a full use from me and keeps me from worrying about being stuck with a dead battery.Awesome!"
+18874,2,Sensory Overload!,"This is, without a doubt, one of the best cookbooks I have ever seen. Keller's attention to detail is astounding. Every time I open it I find something new. As a chef I can honestly say that I draw both inspiration and motivation from this book. I can't wait until I have a chance to eat at The French Laundry!"
+18875,1,SHAME ON YOU MR. KEEL !!!,"Let me just start by saying that the "" MOTHMAN PROPHECIES"" is not a novel, nor is it a coherent story. It starts strong, just enough to draw you in, then it goes down the spectral energy crap hole. Were led to believe that Mr. Keel is a sensiable, unbiased investigator, when really he's a parinoid delusional whack. I'm only 15, and I don't buy a word of it!!! see the movie instead."
+18876,1,not pleased,I ordered this in sept. 2012 the plastic drawers are NOT clear is in the pictures but cloudy semi transparent. the bottoms of the drawers are warped out making them hard to slide in and out. also if you dont mount the unit on a wall it tips over very easily and all the drawers slide out. I bought 2 of these I will keep them because it would be to much of a hassle to return them.
+18877,1,Don't waste your money,"I am sorry to say that I wasted my hard earned money on this book and then on the CCIE Written exam. This book is full of typos, omissions and just plain WRONG information.Additionally, after contacting the publisher to point out the problems AND the solutions, I was told that they couldn't verify any of my information with the authors and so they were unable to help me.Sybex got me through the MCSE and for that I'm grateful, but if this is the kind of book they are putting out now...well, I'm grateful for McGraw Hill and Prentice Hall.For the same price, buy the Bruce Caslow/Valeriy Pavlichenko book ""Cisco Certification""."
+18878,2,Fantastic Novel!,"I read this book for the first time a good... 7 or 8 years ago. I have re-read it about 5 times since then, and I recently purchased it because I just love the book. It stretches your imagination and culminates in a very appropriate ending. This is my absolute favorite book of all time."
+18879,1,you are kidding me,"this author really is good at creating brainless, stupid women. Yeah, there's some funny chatter once in a blue moon, but for the most part you just want to wring the heroine's neck.I guess pairing dumb broads with overly wrought, tormented guys that are just thrilled by these dramaitcs creates some balance. You're relieved that two stupid people are off the meat market and not inflicting themselves on someone who's actually with it.Overall, a big disappointment. I guess as a working class girl I had a hard time dealing with such bimbos. Joy is a brainless twit, I felt like I was dealing with a self-absorbed Paris Hilton type. Ick!Can't believe this series gets good reviews. Katie really dropped the ball with this group of characters."
+18880,2,Love this product!,Product great. Had one small problem with the product. But seller turned around and made it right. Very quick. I would buy from this seller anytime!!!!

+18882,1,Serious Product Flaws DCS-950G,"After reading mostly bad reviews, I took a chance and bought this product. True to the majority of reviews, the camera is subject to locking up regulary. When it worked, the picture quality was good. Tried to work with DLINK and they were no help. They acted as they were not aware of this problem, but they must be since everyone returns these camera's. I saw similiar reviews for their other models as well. My guess is they have a serious firmware problem they need to fix. With so many models to choose from, you would think they have enough invested in this product line to fix the software. I am going to try the ""4xem Corp. IPCAMWLPTG 4XEM Wlptg 802.11G Wireless"""
+18883,2,money,This game is really cool. I especially enjoyed how you had to buy your mechs. You could also hire people to help you win the missions. But once you win the game you never want to play it again. its boring.
+18884,2,My favorite grooming tool.,"We have 3 Aussies. Two with show coats. One has really long hair, at least 8"" long. I use this tool all the time, I also bought a furminator and I didn't like it. The furminator almost seems like it is cutting the coat not just pulling out lose hair. This is a must have tool for long haired dogs."
+18885,1,Horrible--broke after 3 weeks,This waffle iron gave out after just 3 weeks of use. It also to be 'finicky' while it did work. A given setting did not work throughout a session (i.e. a '3' setting would have to be shifted to get the desired doneness).Don't buy this.
+18886,1,Disappointing,"I've read a few of Maggie Estep's books and I found Hex to be rather disappointing. I like her writing, but her story telling is somewhat lacking. I like it when I want to keep reading to find out what happens next but with Hex it was a little painful - there wasn't much suspense or action until the very end. Hardly any of the chapters actually moved you through the story. A lot of the scenes were unmotivated and sort of lagged on. Estep also writes from different character's point's of view and this is more annoying than illuminating."
+18887,2,The Ransom of Mercy Carter,"I liked the book a lot. It had very good detail.It always made you wonder what was going to happen. It made you seem you were there and that you knew Mercy.The best part of this book was when she has to choose wether to stay with the indians or go back to her father.The worst part is when her sister, stepmom are killed and when the indians attack the settlement.The author did a good job at the setting. It made you feel like you were there. Also the character Mercy was explined so well it seem you knew her."
+18888,1,"He says"" I may not be the best""!!","Well I like him.He is funny and the look of him just makes me smile.And in the CD he says ""I may not be the best ""!!What is he thinking ..It should have been ""I may not have been the worst !!!"".But sometimes people like him inspire me ..and I have that hope that maybe one day I can also become a great singer !!"
+18889,2,Great toning workout!!,"This workout is a good, short toning workout. My absolutely favorite part is the 10 minute ab routine that comes on the DVD version. I like it because none of the ab work is done while lying on your back. I have done crunches for years and I think I am immune to them. This ab routine really makes you feel it the next day. The DVD also comes with the Ultrafit nutrition plan and meal guide. They are very informative."
+18890,2,Eggnog,"I enjoyed the book very much. It was well researched in most areas, but in a few places it appears that a certain amount of distracting, and unnecessary literary license was used. Two examples come immediately to mind. Crewmen bailing out Jerry's doomed B-25 during a typhoon, with no indication of how those who bailed out survived ground contact upon landing with winds meeting the minimal thresold of about 75 mph. 75 mph equates to just over 100 feet per second. It is difficultr to understand how anyone could have survived a parachute landing in those conditions. The same for Jerry's brother flying in the typhoon looking for Jerry. The L-4's (Piper Cub) extremely light wing loading would have made taxiing on the ground impossible in such fierce winds. Please, authors and researchers, think these things through, have the material proof read by qualified persons before publishing."
+18891,2,good discussion.,"The only reason I give it a 4/5 is because the diagrams need to be labeled. It's pretty hard to keep up with the conversation when the author refers to a poorly labeled complex diagram. I think Coxeter's other book does a great job and you can download it for free or buy it for under $10. It is a great introduction to college level geometry; and introduction because it doesn't really go into too much depth, but is not shallow either. I would recommend it, but buy it used because it's just not one of those books you'll constantly look back at for help in the future...it's pretty much a one read and that's it."
+18892,1,Disappointing,"I purchased this item as a Christmas present for my husband, and it did work well at first, but within one week we found that it was locking up and had to send it back. I have since read that this is commonly occuring problem with this item. Amazon handled the return fairly graciously. My husband did his own research and purchased a Tom Tom which has been fantastic and has more options."

+18894,2,Timex dress watch,The watch is as described and pictured. It is very nice. I would have liked a better system for making the band smaller. It doesn't come with enough links to remove if you have a small wrist. So It is worn as a bracelet now.
+18895,2,These are AWESOME!,"I LOVE these headphones, I used them roughly 10 hours a day for 3 weeks straight, And they still work! (Only used one battery too!) I got a Used pair that came with a power brick, And they wore better than my friends Beats he paid $100+ for!"
+18896,1,The worst book!,"The only reason I finished the book, was because i bought it online and didn't want to waste my money.I was very disappointed with the story line. The storyline didn't go anywhere. When it actually started getting better the story was over. I definetly would not recommend this to anyone!"
+18897,2,Laugh out loud funny.,"After reading Mr. Complete, I got about three more of SS books, this being one of them. This is another funny, light, page-turning romance. Jack is a great character in this book, Dr. Jeckel, as he is refered to. Very amusing to watch the antics of the ""switched specimen"" between the brothers. I liked this book and the original story. The romance was sweet as well. I though it could have been a little hotter, it did have all the potential and plenty of spots for it, but it was not there. They still conected well and you still got to watch the budding romance. Recommended."
+18898,1,Kerouac Bum,"Although Kerouac was quite an interesting character, Charters gives little justice to this literary genius. She gives merely a string of events, adding no story to his life at all. In addition to that, Mrs. Charters does not describe some situations at all. The reader is left to wonder what truly happened in some instances, and this gives little justice to Jack's life. There were a few sentences were the author attempted to write in Jack's style, and fails miserably. I'm sorry to detract so much from Mrs. Charters, but she is no Jack Kerouac. Overall, the book isn't bad, and if you're really interested in Kerouac, it's not a bad place to start, but if you really want to dive into Kerouac's psyche and true genius, this is not the place to do it."
+18899,1,Closed Caption,I am very disappointment no closed caption or subtitles on this. I love Laurel & Hardy. I hope this make subtitles and closed caption sooner....
+18900,1,Not the best place to start.,"Shabbily written and loosely argued, this book is not the best place to start a quest for philosophical education. Nash typically conflates subtle issues, clumsily stacks the deck in favor of his pet causes, and then resorts to glaring logical fallacies. Readers who are really interested in learning about philosophy should look elsewhere. The Christian faith has many rich intellectual resources--but you won't find them here."
+18901,1,I'd keep looking if I were you,I have used a Tomtom One for a couple of years.Estimated times are always much longer than your actual time.Map updating is expensive. Might as well buy a new unit (Garmin) when looking at the cost of map update.Screen brightness is either daytime or a really bright night setting even when set to minimum.Computer interface is pretty much useless except for being sold more software.
+18902,2,Great camera but low battery life.,"I bought this camera for my dad's birthday and he absolutely loved it. The only problem is that it eats batteries way too fast. I used it for a wedding and I went through 4 sets of batteries to take about 50 pictures. Other than that, the picture quality is excellent! My pictures came out perfect and of much higher quality than I expected. It is very easy to use, very small, and very lightweight. I can't rate the software or the usb cable that came with it because I haven't used them. Instead, I use a smartmedia usb drive to read the card. That is the easiest way to go.Other than the battery life, this is a wonderful little camera at a great price. I highly recommend it!!!"
+18903,2,wow,"This is the first CD of RSJ I've ever bought, I was so impressed! This CD was special to me because I've had the opportunity to sing a couple of her songs for special music at our church (God, Go and Sin No More) and so having a cd with both these (and other favourites) was just awesome. This woman has an amazing talent and a profound message to send to people everywhere-I also found her webpage to be very encouraging. Buy it, you'll love it!"
+18904,2,Buy this book - NOW! Before you tell your wife you want a divorce!,"This is the best book you can buy if you ever even think you might want to dump your wife. Read it and take the time to ""think before you act""! Protect yourself in the long run. This book has a lot of funny stuff in it, but basically it has a lot of great advice on how to deal with ending a relationship, and how to get out of it alive and with a little bit of the money you worked your whole life for...."
+18905,1,Crawling under a rock to spare my ears the agony.....,"Ugh! From the fake smile on his CD single to the Barry Manilow-ish album cover, this guy screams superficiality! Sorry, Clay....you might have been second in American Idol II...but you are NOT Barry Manilow! I just have a problem with someone who has to use a tv show to get noticed instead of using their god-given talents and merits to get to superstardom. It smacks in the face of those who have real talent and are struggling to be heard and appreciated by the music industry and the public. So many good singers are passed up because of tripe like this. Please, spend your money wisely and don't buy this CD. Go out and get yourself ULTIMATE BARRY MANILOW or even a good Celine Dion disc instead. At least those folks worked for years to get where they are...and obviously have some talent. Clay, I wish you luck...but I am sure your career will be history in about a year."
+18906,1,Boycotting 101 for Bigots,"The potential contribution of this little volume cannot be overestimated: Imagine the joy of visiting a Disney theme park unspoiled by the repugnant bigotry that drives Land and York's calls for boycotting Disney. If they are successful in convincing fellow bigots to avoid Disney, then the rest of us will surely have added reason to take our children to ""The Happiest Place on Earth."" Thanks, Dick and Frank!"
+18907,2,Thumb Up,Lay out of this book is awesome. It is very easy for readers to follow text and related drawings. Lots of good and useful information on Die Design and Metal Forming. I would indeed recommend this book to Students and Engineers that deal with Die design and Metal Forming. Thumb Up!
+18908,2,My son still plays with this a year later...,"Totally cute costume set. My son and daughter love dressing up and as a mom I like the safety of the cape being attached, rather than tying around the neck. The cute box (""trunk"") it came in arrived totally thrashed with no apparent discount, but that would have probably broken over time anyway. Overall, a product with longlasting value!"
+18909,2,"Touching, thought provoking...","What a book! And what a nice man... For anyone out there who thinks they may not be doing such a great job at this parent thing it's a great read... you realise that you're actually not doing too bad, that you can't be perfect all the time and are allowed to make mistakes - and learn from them, because after all that's what they're for. It makes you think, then it hits you that however long your childs life is it isn't that long at all... I for one will take a little step back, take a deep breath and enjoy my son a little more."
+18910,2,A Thinking Man's Thriller,"Tom Ricks has produced a gripping tale that is both chilling and totally plausible. He demonstrates, as he did in his previous book ""Making the Corps,"" an expert eye for modern military culture. Ricks doesn't go for the easy cartoon plot twists that are featured in too many books of this genre. He serves up some complex ethical questions. In ""A Soldier's Duty,"" like in real life, the answers aren't always black and white."
+18911,2,This is a great Series!,"My friends and I Love this series of games! It's a shame that they are so hard to find, espically the earlier ones. This one was great for Halloween it made for easy decorations and costums. However, the solution was impossible to figure out. We still had a ton of fun playing. I've found that the games later in the How to Host series have very wacky endings and solutions are really difficult. I perfer the earlier ones try Last train from Paris and Watersdown affair --that is if you are lucky enough to find them!"
+18912,1,Test Every RING by its Hojotoho!,"To decide on a RING, I have found that the way the Hojotoho! sequence is conducted provides an acurate test of the approach to the entire work. If it is powerful, then likely all else follows the same. Here (Disk 5) one can tell that the effect is not stellar, and if any portion of this cycle is to be stellar, this is it."
+18913,2,"Outstanding ""Deap-Water"" Navy!!!","Just finished a re-read of Pat Johnston's novel ""Boatswain's Mate"" and, once again, I re-lived my navy career with his character ""Jake""! Some of the locations ""Jake"" served, I was there at the same time, and it almost seems I knew him! This is an outstanding book for any one ex-navy, or any one intrested is what navy life is really like. Terrific reading!!!Harry A.Moore, Aviatiom Boatswain's Mate, U.S.N."
+18914,2,the best of the New Formalists,"Timothy Steele, in terms of his command of meter and rhyme, wit and irony, powers of observation and restraint, is the finest of the New Formalist poets. My only complaint with his work is that I get a strong sense of deja vu when reading it -- sometimes I think I'm reading Richard Wilbur instead. (Of course, Richard Wilbur is hardly a bad model.) Steele writes almost entirely in meter and rhyme and is the most competent poet featured in the ""Rebel Angels"" anthology."
+18915,2,MGM Masterpiece.,I am anticipating that Warner Bros will release the remastered edition of this film on DVD fairly soon. Movie Mogul Louis B. Mayer came out of the movie theatre with tears streaming down his face after seeing this one!
+18916,2,"Not for learning, but nice DVD","This DVD has some great performances and examples of banjo styles , but it is not a training /lesson DVD as I expected and presented as. I returned it for one with lessons"
+18917,1,Horrible.,"I recently saw The Bourne Identity in theatres and figured i'd read the book. The library didn't have it so I got this one instead. While I read the whole thing I'd say I enjoyed about every other line except the ending which doesn't make any sense and is really just a cop out.The first thing that annoyed me was that everyone he talks to gets killed just before they are about to provide some information which might move the story along. I don't mind if some of them get killed, but all of them?? That's just silly.The second thing that annoyed me was that at one point Bryson is able to determine in a glance -- in the moonlight -- that a CIA badge is legit, but later on he can't decide if several british policeman are legit or not even though he examines their clothes, their guns, and their badges. Which is it?"
+18918,1,Trash,"Really don't like this thermometer. It cost our 3 week old a spinal tap. It is very inconsistent and not very user friendly. The setting for axillary, rectal or oral is hard to read and just getting the thing to work isn't very easy. I would not recommend this product to anyone with a baby. The only positive thing I can say, is that it does give a quick reading in the oral or rectal setting. However, it is hard to know if you are in the oral or rectal setting and you can't trust the reading that you get."
+18919,2,A great game,"This game rules. It's a lot of fun. I'm so bad at it I can't even beat the game on easy and i still love it. Skirmishs are awesome. There are so many different strategies to use, you'll probaly never figure out all of them. And the expansion packs make it even better(I suggest aftermath, which you can get with the regular game in the arsenal package, But I hear counterstrike is decent also.) I also haer that it is cool to play on the internet, but i've never got that mode to work. The only domnside is you can't play skirmishs. But at this point, I wouldent buy. You will probaly start to play, Love it, Play it alot, Get the new one in october, and throw out the old one. This is a great game, But i suggest you wait for the new one."
+18920,2,Wonderful story and fantastic illustration,"My children LOVED this book! It's one of my favorite children's book. It illustrates in vivid pictures the extent a mother will go to feed her children in spite of their difficult requests because of her enormous love for each of them. As a mother of picky eaters, I could only hope the message of the book will translate to children how much they are loved, but also how much life would be easier if everyone ate the same thing! The illustrations are beautiful, too."
+18921,2,Another Charming Effort from SEP,"While this book does not have the laugh a minute, roller coaster feel of SEP's best (It Had to Be You, Lady Be Good) or the heartbreak & eloquence of ""Dream a Little Dream"", it was still better than 99.9% of the romance books on the market. Like other reviewers, it was hard for me to accept the too fast relationship between the Nealy and Mat, but the characters of the children were great. If Molly is going to have the next book, let's hope that Lucy will be in the one after that."
+18922,1,The Sexual Story of O,well photographed in some slutty french seaside city but has nothing to do with the original story of o. bad buy If I had known in advance I would not have bought this item
+18923,1,What a load of ****,"Dan couldn't motive Punxsutawney Phil to look for his shadow. Where does he come up with this stuff? It's so clearly a bad rehash of other self-help books. Did he even do any research? And what makes him qualified to ""teach"" this stuff? Maybe Martha Stewart heard him speak. If companies really do hire him, it's no wonder American business is losing its competitive edge. What he professes seems in line with the moral and ethical decline of ""Corporate America."" Heck, he probably writes his own reviews on Amazon. I can't believe I wasted any money on this book. At least I'll have kindling for next winter."

+18925,1,Why We Need To Protect Ocean Creatures.,"Let me quote. ""A 7-foot blue shark hung from the Hannah Boden's rigging, where it thrashed wildly. Swaddled in rags saturated in lighter fluid, the shark was slashed at with knives and poked with gaffs like a giant pinata until a single match set it ablaze. Slowly, the thrashing reduced to a writhing, and finally a squirm.""I don't think these people are professional fishermen. I think they are sociopaths, choosing the anonymity of the ocean to hide behavior towards animals for which they would be jailed if done on land. Shame on Greenlaw and all her crew. This book was filled with an unmistakable, greed-driven hatred of the ocean and all its creatures."
+18926,2,Excellent,It is clear to me that the Holy Spirit sings through her voice. I love her very much. May God bless her always.
+18927,2,Product worth every penny!,"Was turned on to this moisturizing cream when I received a sample sized tube at my dermatologist's office. Super rich cream that needs to be massaged in to penetrate, but once it does... Lasts all day! Heals any cracks/dry areas within a couple of applications. Fragrance free. Highly recommend. Do not waste your money on something you would buy at the supermarket. Spend the extra money, you'll be glad you did! Buy multiple tubes to qualify for free shipping."
+18928,2,Not idiotic archery,Idiot Proof Archery is easy to read and focuses on the primary problem of mentally separating sight picture (aiming) and trigger pull (release). I enjoyed the 44 case studies with pictures that showed the most common problems with technique which allows self analysis. I have recommended it to other archers at our club and I consider it a reference book for my library.
+18929,1,Dont Buy - The Manufacturer is non responsive for defective units,I Brought this reading the nice reviews and unfortunately my unit was defective. The light and sound buttons didnt work and the unit was sticky and dirty as well.I noticed that the product manual claimed - one year warranty and that I should contact the manufacturer and not return thr item. But when I called their customer service - they just didnt care.
+18930,1,Disappointing,"This movie could have been so much better. It started out fairly well but just didn't hold together after the initial introduction. The movie lost me completely in the bathroom scene. You've got a monster trapped in the toilet, but that toothpick on the floor is out of your reach, and you need it so badly that you let the monster out to get it? You have to ask yourself, ""What's WRONG with this person?""Morgan Freeman's performance in this movie was also a big disappointment. He's such a talented actor, but here he seems to be just going through the motions. His character just falls flat. And as noted in an earlier review, the hair and eyebrows make him look silly and cartoonish.No big surprises in the final battle sequence. You pretty much know by this point who the two sides are going to be. But that last little bit after the fight - whose idea was that? I just wanted to shout at the television, ""What? NO! That CAN'T be the end!"" What a let-down."
+18931,2,crayons,"Nice improvement to the crayon, especially for older children. Now we do not have so many broken crayons about everywhere."
+18932,2,What is to be the outcome?,"It isn't clear why all but one of the reviews is from the 20 year old VHS version. The main criticism was that it was an edited version missing, I suppose, some of the more erotic scenes. Standards have changed a bit since then and what ever eroticism was originally intended was pretty tame and in my view inconsequential to the important dilemmas & conflicts in the storyline . The intrigue within the movie is who is the self serving central male figure going to choose: (a.) the sexually provocative and experienced older female or (b.) the devout innocent younger female. And, what price is he willing to pay for his decision. If you haven't read any hints to the movie then the ending is probably going to be a surprise.A bit dated (clothing styles for each period leave such an indelible image) but the acting, directing, script and cinematography, as the Goya award attests to, carry well into the present."
+18933,1,Competent But Generic,"In today's saturated Power Metal scene, it can be a challenge to wade through the mass of bands out there to find anything truly worthwhile. So where does Highland Glory rank? Well, for me, they don't quite make the cut. This album features very competent, Euro-style power metal similar to bands like Elegy, Insania, and Balance of Power, The problems I have with this album are 1) the singer's voice doesn't quite work for me, being too limited in range and slightly irritating; 2) the songs lack any real punch or conviction- there's no HEAVY in their Metal; 3) As a long-time power metal fan (going on 20 years), there's just nothing new or innovative to hear here. I don't mind a generic band if they can at least play it w/ conviction, but that's not the case herein, and so Highland Glory becomes just another face in the crowded power metal scene. They'll need to punch it up alot if they want to run with the elite bands like Blind Guardian, Dragonforce & Kamelot"
+18934,2,Excellent book for beginning & intermediate writers of empirical work,"I have always recommended this text for my upper level students in my 4-year college, however, most students did not avail themselves of it. So this year I am requiring it. Tired of repeating myself, now I'll just say ""read the book!"" This text WILL help you write an empirical paper if you have limited or no experience doing so. It will help you polish those skills if you have some experience. I highly recommend it."
+18935,1,a working mom,"Dr Sears completely ignores the HUGE population of working mothers! The book goes on and on and on about attachment parenting and how you should allow your child to disattach from you and not the other way around....well, the majority of the mother's in this world do not have this choice! Furthermore, he made me feel as though I was a selfish mother for not carrying my daughter on my hip for the first year of her life. My daughter is very attached to me and we have a very close relationship....yet I started back at work full time when she was 8 weeks old. I feel that Dr Sears only addressing those mothers that stay at home full time and even then he cautions about leaving your child! Easy for him to say!!!!"
+18936,1,Never Received,"I saw this movie in the Theater and that is why I purchased it from Amazon.com. The movie itself is great, however, I never received my movie. It is almost impossible to contact Amazon.com without clicking on link to link under their supposed ""help"" section. My e-mails have been avoided and Amazon.com has already taken my money. The tracking information is incomplete and the ""Phone Me"" section does not work at Amazon.com. I have sent two e-mails already for two days and no response, no movie. Buyers beware, Amazon.com is no longer reliable."
+18937,2,A year later I am still using this book as a reference,"First, I should say that I was a student of Dr. Brown's and took his class in which we used this book as the text. But, I still find the information contained in this book useful even now that I am no longer a student. I found this area of psychology very applicable to my daily life, and I am surprised that this is the only book on self-psychology available on the market. He writes in a clear, entertaining manner and he makes the concepts easy to understand. This is a valuable reference to me, and I am certain it will continue to be as I enter graduate study in psychology."
+18938,2,Family Matters...,"Amanda (Antoinette Bower) is a depressed, suicidal woman. Who could blame her? After all, her father hated her, loving her self-worshipping sister, Nell, instead. He dropped dead one day, leaving Amanda at the mercy of her greedy, sociopathic brother, Edward (Jack Ging). Nell seems to have vanished on the same day old daddy died. Now, Edward has hired a ""nurse"" (Rita Conde) to make sure Amanda winds up dead, so he can inherit his father's entire estate. DIE SISTER, DIE! is a good, solid thriller with no need of gore or cheap effects. It looks into the minds of twisted people who will do just about anything for money. The terror lies in knowing that creeps like these actually exist! DSD has some cool characters and a nice little ending (though not too unexpected). Enjoy..."
+18939,2,An author to watch,"This book has an honesty I find rare in short fiction today. There is a slowness and a sincerity to the writing that is admirable. The subject matter is not new, and yet the stories read with a surprising freshness. They are vivid and beautiful (and brutal). Briggs lacks the flash of many of his contemporaries, but he lacks nothing in the way of talent."
+18940,1,$23 for one episode?! Not a ghost of a chance,"I would have bought the complete season 1 at, say, $30 for several people on my Christmas list. Clearly most fans of the show are going to wait for Biography's execs to realize how ridiculous and deluded they're being, releasing single episodes for $23. Also, FYI, Biography, even if you priced them at $5 each, no one wants a bunch of single-episode DVDs taking up space. Just release a reasonably priced, compact season package already to bring back your sales from the dead."
+18941,1,very poor video monitor,"I had this for about 1 hour, trying to give it the benifit of the doubt, but then gave up on it and returned if to the store. It got good sound signal, but everything interfered with it (nearby phones, people walking between the base and the unit, ect) and then the video monitor had a constand roll, despite a never ending tweaking of the V hold dial. I would get it still for about 2 minutes, walk away for a second, come back and it was in full tilt spin. Just not workable nor worth the investment. There are a couple other brands out there, look at them first (like Summer). This is Saftey is actually saftey last."
+18942,1,Only works for a few months......,"We bought this unit for a Directv DVR. It took a lot of tweeking to get it to work in the first place. And now a few months later, still plugged in to the same spot we had it, it stopped working. If you plug the unit in side by side with the base unit it works. If you move it 8 feet, it doesn't work. It has actually been a pain. I feel it's been a huge waste of time and money."
+18943,2,Excellent,"Parker comes through. Going back and forth between new hero Jesse Stone and a criminal planning the heist to end all heists, the excitement builds towards a satisfying end. One fly in the ointment, Stone hasn't been able to shake his selfish (...) ex-wife. In stalker like fashion, she has followed him to Paradise and installed herself. . . not wanting him and but not wanting him to be free either., Why is it when a male does this to an ex-wife he is considered evil, but Parker has this creature do this, and some how he actually thinks it's romantic or something. Can't help but wonder about Parker's mentality. But a good read, nonetheless. Hopefully he will see the light, and dump her. She really adds nothing to the story."
+18944,1,I don't buy what he's singing!,"Even though everything is in pitch, somehow I just don't believe anything that he is singing. I wish he would pay more attention to the lyrics - very sloppy - too much sluring in some of the songs!"
+18945,1,Zero stars,"I can not stand this coffee maker. There are always grounds in the coffee. The coffee started tasting like swamp water. One day when I overfilled the reservoir, while pouring out the extra I found grounds coming out of the water dispenser. The filter must fill with so much water while brewing that it backs up into the water dispenser. I will not even give it to the local thrift shop,it goes in the trash."

+18948,1,"Remember, remember, the 5th of November","Every conceivable, ridiculous cliche about conservative politicians is exaggerated to the maximum and crammed into this movie. Imagine Michael Moore writing/directing Batman meets Zorro.V for Vendetta is visually impressive. It has that dark feel of Tim Burton's films. Hugo Weaving conveys more emotion from behind a mask than most actors can manage with faces fully exposed. The fighting scenes -- what few there are -- are enjoyable.At the risk of giving too much away, the hero, V, is a modern-day Guy Fawkes, who is still remembered in England every year on November 5th. Interestingly -- and without knowing beforehand the connection between V and Guy Fawkes -- I rented and watched this movie on November 5th. If anything good came out of viewing V for Vendetta is that it made me want to learn more about Guy Fawkes. The movie was otherwise a disappointment."
+18949,2,"Just the basics, please.","I was looking for some basic, no frills sweatpants to wear to the gym or around the house on those rare occasions when it gets cold in Houston, TX. After revewing a lot of sweatpants: with pockets, flared legs, stripes,hip hugger style (yikes!)and more, I finally found these. They are very comfortable and warm. They are of a medium weight with a draw-string waist and elastic at the ankles. In short, they're perfect. I like them so much, I ordered another pair in a different color."
+18950,1,It would be great - if we could actually do anything,"It would be a great game if you could do what it says on the box. You need money and the problem is, you are never given enough. It has too much complicated financial stuff in it and before you even know it, you are bankrupt. Most of my time is spent waiting for money levels to rise. It would be a great game, if they actually let you DO anything. The sky is not the limit, its the money. Do NOT buy this game!"
+18951,2,enjoyed it,did not expect what happened in the movie enjoyed it...i am glad to see that they made a movie that this happen to a man
+18952,2,"Not THE best cowgirls, but one of the best!","These guys are so reliable. Pat Todd is getting older but he still writes great songs, and has great artisic integrity. He has to be one of the only 50 year old rockers that still writes and performs like it's his first record.All the songs are good, but some stick out as great: Boerne Girl, Burning Daylight, and Give It Away.Buy this thing if only to support one of the last true rock n roll bands left! And see them live. They never disappoint!"
+18953,2,Absolutely Amazing,"Finished this book in less than a day....I am a sucker for paranormal romance, but this book blew me away. I purchased it because of the high ratings, but it was a lot more than I expected. The heroine is witty and relatable and the hero is right out of my dreams. If you want a book that will grab you from the start and keep you begging for more well after it's done, then this is the one for you. I can't wait to start the next book in the series!"
+18954,2,Good book for beginners,"The book raises a lot of issues that need to be dealt with in designing a web site. This is not a book on how to create a web page. A lot of the material in the book is common sense, but good as a refresher. The book is well written and easy to read."
+18955,2,ahahaha,"track #2 reminds me of transformers, no??i love this CD, and I don't mind the repetitive beats only b/c its more modern than others as badmarsh and shri/ dancing drums."
+18956,2,Great full-body workout,"This video is part of my arsenal against the holiday weight. The video is fun and the hour flies by, but don't be fooled--your legs and abs will feel it in the morning. This workout will give you great conditioning and a decent amount of cardio without leaving you sweating and panting on the floor (like most of my other DVDs, which are great but it's nice to have a change on occasion)."
+18957,1,extreme skinny bitch,ok. So first off their advice about vices is good and delivered with humor. And the advise about sugar and carbs is right on the money but then they start talking about dairy and meat. I was on board until then. This book is basically a beginners guide to veganism with allot of bad words. ALLOT.
+18958,1,Insomnia,"... Although this movie started out with a ""Bang""~ it left me sitting there when the credits started to roll by wondering ""Did I miss something""~ The ending is a huge disapointment~Would I recommend this movie? ? 50/50~ ..."

+18960,2,This thing rocks!!,"Purchased the grill a few weeks ago after doing some research for grills in this price range. Have used it so far to make: sandwiches (got some italian loaf from the bakery). They turned out great. Toasted bagels--turned out really great--perfectly crispy all over with out being over done. I grilled some zucchini (marinted it some first)---turned out great. I even did a London Broil. Turned out really good too. If you like your meat well done, it will take a while but for rare to medium-well this works great! Probably only took about 15 minutes (if that) to get it to medium.Heats up quickly. Cleans up nicely. Of course, as with anything, cleans up easier if you do it right away or soon after cooking. Overall I am very pleased."
+18961,2,Great book to get fundamental understanding of Java.,"I recently purchased this book to prepare for Java Certification. I believe everyone will be interested in the most intricate concepts this book highlights. Each and every line in this book makes an important meaning, so we have to be very attentive when reading the book and in understanding the fundamentals. The CD contents are not too good when compared to the book."
+18962,1,Try the Corolle Doll,"I used my own money to buy this doll. I was very upset because her hair got tangled up right away. So, my mom let me take her back to the store and we got my money back. Then we tried the Corolle Styling Head. It costs the same and it is great. I have used her for days and her hair is still like new. I don't know how it works, but the hair can curl too. I wish Toys R Us would carry Corolle dolls. They are great!"

+18964,1,Once again looking to his own belly...,"I think americans should be ashamed. How could someone call ""The century"" something that we could call ""US Century""? And what about all the other great momentus that happened around the world? The book is really good, is excellent. But the name makes no sense! Americans should remember that there is life outside US."
+18965,2,A Book for everyone who wants to learn more of God's Word,"Good book, A must read for those who would desire to be students of God's Word. All Christians can use this information to ""rightly divide the Word of truth"". It is clear in it's format and writing and very complete in its covering of the principles of Biblical interpretation."

+18967,1,Looks great sounds less than Ok at best settings.,"I am glad to see Sony enter the Hard Drive MP3 player arena. This unit has great features great looks and a great feel. It falls way short however on sound quality. Compared to my current MP3 player, Pogo Products RipDrive, this unit just doesn't deliver a clear, rich or powerful sound. I tried ripping my CD's at all possible quality settings and types and the sound was not close enough to my RipDrive unit to keep me from being dissapointed. The Sony VGF-AP1L wins hands down on style looks and size. If you want to show off to your friends this looks great, but if you want to impress your ears try a RipDrive."
+18968,1,Don't waste your money on this,The volume is not loud enough and people have a hard time hearing on the other end even when you speak right into it. Spend more money on something that actually works.
+18969,2,Wholesome in a creepy way,This is one to read for any young would-be writer that still has dreams and aspirations. Now who here never experienced a foolish infatuation for an older person as a youngster? Come on now..... Here it just so happens to be that Mario chose a vivacious free spirited woman who turned out to be his aunt.
+18970,2,"Very good, yet not comparable to Diva Dance","Let me start out by saying that i love this cd. i bought it thinking that it would be like the song Diva Dance from the Fifth Element. It is most certainly one of my favorite cd's but it is nothing like the Diva Dance song. All of the tracks are much slower, focusing more on the opera part, as opposed to the techno/pop. i would still give this cd a splendid 4 out of 5 stars, but i would just like to get across the point that it doesn't have the type of songs that are advertised. thanks."
+18971,1,confused,"I just opened it today, and I am disappointed. The outside of the box states it is a floor cover and not the trunk tray as written on the shipping label. I really don't know if they shipped the wrong item.It is supposed to be 28"" by 3ft. It is not.So, I am not sure if I got the correct item and I don't want to have to pay to ship it back. It is pretty bent, I am hoping it straightens out. A friend of mine just bought a new Sante Fe and admired my cargo tray so I bought her one. It is not as thick as the one I have."
+18972,2,12 picks. 1 color. As advertised. Great deal.,"This is a great deal. I'm not sure where some reviewers got the idea this was for 72 picks; maybe the page has changed. This is a much better deal on a dozen high-quality picks than I can get at my local music store.Tortex picks are color-coded, and the page clearly indicates that each color is a different thickness. When you order, for example, blue picks, you get 12, 1.0 mm picks. They're not multi-colored, they're blue, as the page says.The blue ones are thicker than some of the other colors, and therefore stiffer. I like a stiff pick and switched to these from Ernie Ball mediums. Players who prefer a thinner pick should try a different color. That's one great thing about the color-coding system; you always know what you're getting.Tortex picks do not slip out of your hand easily, last well, at least for me, and give a great sound. I'm hooked on Tortex blues."
+18973,1,Dinner Is Served,"This is a fine work for someone who knows little to start with, but for someone who wants to know, say, the proper way to hold a fish knife this is a complete waste of money. It is light and provides little information most well reared people don't already know."
+18974,2,Easy to install and use,"I've been using this product for 2 months now. The installation was simple and the instructions on programming and use straight-forward, although it has a lot more features than I use. The temperature sensor seems accurate.Update: After 2 years now, this product is still working great."
+18975,1,Go with a better quality juicer,"I thought cheapest was best for a juicer, when starting out.Wrong.Go for a better quality product.I ended up with a Breville wide mouth juicer and love it."
+18976,2,an extraordinarilly beautiful record,"This album is so unbelieveable. Man, i just cant tell you about it. Its a country kind of sound, but it just grabs ahold of you and doenst let go. Easilly one of the best cd's ive ever heard. You have to take a listen to this one. Its kind of a Wilco or Son Volt sound with a Moody side to it. Damn excellent by these guys"
+18977,1,Not Impressed,"I don't ever review things, but I was so dissappointed by this book I had to write about it. Don't waste your money. There is nothing to sink your teeth into in this book, I'm embarrassed to say I finished it even. The characters are boring and flat with no development and nothing concrete. The end felt like the authors just stopped writing because they got bored. The two authors are actresses and bartenders, so I don't know what I was expecting out of this. Sorry but it was a waste of my time to read."
+18978,2,Surprised by the wonderful flavor of Amy's Southwestern Vegetable Soup,I'm fairly discriminating about what I consider a praiseworthy vegetable soup. I happened upon this one in the organic section of the supermarket & was pleasantly surprised with the flavor & spice. Not overpowering but spiced enough to give the soup & its mixed flavors a standing ovation. Not many 'canned' soups can taste homemade while still maintaining its flavors. Bottom line? A random soup pick has made an enthusiastic customer out of me. I'm hoping Amy's other soups can live up to this introduction...I'll find out when grocery shopping on our return trip.
+18979,2,My son is addicted to MJ,"Thanks to the Wii, my son fell in love with the music of Michael Jackson. The top of his Christmas list was ""Michael Jackson music"". I got him this CD because it included songs that my son would know. He was ecstatic and as soon as he could he had it playing in his room as loud as he was allowed. And because he is constantly singing his favorites, there are few days when I don't have 'Beat It' or 'Thriller' running through my head."
+18980,1,Mid life crisis?,"This album is embarrasing for Garth Brooks. His attempts to sound fresh and modern wind up sounding like a parody of groups like N Sync and The Backstreet boys.His version of Come Together was scary on the tv special, and the album cut is just as bad. Since when did an Oklahoman say, ""Brotha"" instead of ""Brother?""The really sad thing is this concept could have possibly worked. But instead we get forgetable songs done in a parody style."
+18981,1,USELESS!,"This is a reprint of a pamphlet (30 to 50 some pages, depending on reproduced format) published in 1906. The first part of the pamhplet is 1900's preaching and moralizing. It compares world religions - all of which (called ""fancies"") loose when compared to Christianity. The second part of the pamphlet is a list in calendar form of the daily religious holidays/celebrations and observances in 1900's China."
+18982,2,Super 2 for 1 volume from Nora Roberts,"This was originally published in 1986, but it was re-released in 2002, when I discovered it. With this, I admit this was my first Nora Roberts read.Wow. I was hooked from the first page. I have read Second Nature many times over and over.Roberts' ability to show contrast within a character's psyche, appearance, expectation is superb.I also enjoyed the second part of this volume, One Summer, but it was Second Nature that hooked me.I have read several others of Roberts, and have the utmost respect for this highly talented, prodigious author in two genres.Superb.It was amusing for me to note that not all the reviews I read here were so positive.That only speaks to the ultimate nature of book reading and individual tastes.A sure winner for me."
+18983,2,"Challenging, encouraging, elightening!","I own this book, have read it a few times, and have heard one of the authors (Tara) speak. This is an amazing book! At first, I didn't think I needed to read it because I wasn't involved in any active conflicts at the moment. Don't let that deter you! This is a great book for any woman who wants to be a better friend, wife, mother, etc. It has opened my eyes to SO many Biblical truths. It has challenged me to reach out to others by understanding Christ's love for me."
+18984,2,Fusion jazz gem from the masters,"This hard to find CD is a must for fans of fusion jazz. The groundbreaking quartet of Chick Corea, Stanley Clarke, Al DiMeola, and Lenny White provide the true fusion of rock and jazz with the hard driving ""Earth Juice"" and ""Vulcan World"". And then the solo piano of the title tune provides a surpassingly sweet moment of peace. Along with their classic Romantic Warrior and Weather Report's ""Heavy Weather"" this CD is a classic of early-mid-70's fusion jazz."
+18985,1,Such good reviews...but such a waste of time!,"I've heard nothing but how funny this movie is for months, so I finally rented it thru Amazon. What a waste of time and money. Awful cannot even describe how bad this movie is...and I watched the whole thing hoping it would get better somewhere along the line. It did not."
+18986,1,"Trash with a capital ""T""","Tombstone is probably THE most overrated movie ever made. George Cosmotos couldn't land any decent directing gigs since Rambo First Blood Part 2 and thankfully won't direct a movie again (RIP). This movie is a collection of unfinished scenes starring respectable actors who have no idea they are in the hands of a hack. Only people who like American Beauty, Pulp Fiction, and Office Space will be attracted to this trash. Get ready for two hours of your life you will NEVER get back. Michael Beihn and Val Kilmer chew through their scenes with immense energy (and are worth watching) but they can't save this deflated and uninteresting turd. Is this disc any good? Who cares?! Don't waste your time or your money--or wait for it to hit the $5.00 bin at Wal-Mart."
+18987,2,Best Pens,"Of all the push button pens I have ever used, these are by far the very best. We look for them whenever we are out of pens.Black mediums are the name of the game!"
+18988,1,Very slow moving.,What a dumb book. So slow you could skip pages and pages and still not get anywhere. A total waste of time.
+18989,2,SciFi Lover,The X-Files is one of the best tv series ever. Each episode leaves you wanting more.Oh but so much better having this show on Dvd. I highly recommend this series.Enjoy the show I sure did.
+18990,2,Serve the purpose,These work just like they are supposed to. Was able to label cds and dvds. I like being able to choose which point to use.
+18991,1,unfortunately 2 l.e.d's were not working unpackaged,"if this wasnt the case i would give 3 stars only because it advertises that it changes red to blue (false)other than that if it had worked 100 percent out of package and had stated advertised that it was blue led stand not blue and red , then 4 stars would be in order..but judging on how my item came w/ two led's out of order i would say the life span may be a tad short, which is why the item is 5-6 bucks..but you get what you pay for and at that price if my unit worked as advertised and worked 100 percent then it would be a great buy at that price.."
+18992,2,Better 3rd and 4th time watching,"Loved the books too much. But I do love the movies also, they just had to grow on me :)"
+18993,2,Boyfriend was Happy,Thank you for the prompt service and answering my concern so quickly. My boyfriend was so excited since this was a hard movie to find. Thank you so much
+18994,2,Good group of well-sculpted models... but hardly any archers.,"As with all Games Workshop models these are sculpted well and in great poses. They're easy to paint and are almost all one pieces, which makes them a bit more durable than some of their other plastic models.That said, this box set contains a rather confusing mix of units. Instead of an even 8-8-8 of hand weapon-bow-random special weapon armed models, you get 8 with sword and shield, 8 with two-handed weapons, 4 with 'spears', and 4 archers. Uh...what? So...you do get 24, at least (unlike the stupid Army of the Dead set), but you have 4 generic 'hand weapons' orcs (who uses those in big numbers anyway?) and only 4 with bows...so you HAVE to get another box to have only ONE full archer company. WHY do this to us? :-)"
+18995,1,"Not on par with the ""walking with"" series","This film disappointed me. The animation is sub-par and the feature itself is too short. The background story is weak and the music sounds like it was generated from a MIDI program on a kids PC. Save you money and rent it instead. This film is not in the same class of quality as the ""walking with"" series."
+18996,1,Disappointed,"I was really excited about this game when I saw the first presentation videos. It looked very cool and interesting. Now, as it's been crippled by DRM and apparently dumbed down as well, I'm definitely not looking forward to it anymore. I only hope it's not as sloppy and unfinished as SimCity Societies was."
+18997,2,good stepping stone for alternative parenting,"as an introduction to the confusing world of ""alternative"" parenting, this book relates common topics in a simple, caring way. good all around advice in a variety of issues including basic care as well as discipline, schooling, and media concerns. i finally was able to find an independant, wonderful doctor (phillip incao)in my area after reading peggy's chapter on vaccination concerns. i imagine that after reading this book , you might need more information on some ideas, but it is a great way to get the basics."
+18998,1,Buttons still too spread out,"I thought this controller would be the perfect solution for my small hands ... and strained wrists and thumbs from playing too much Dead or Alive 3. But the buttons on this controller are still way too spread out, and so I find myself awkwardly twisting my wrist for my thumb to reach them. The smaller size is nice, but they should have thought more about the button layout. And why are the white and black buttons on the bottom? Makes for a difficult transition when you're used to the larger controller (where they are on top)."
+18999,1,Dissapointed,"Look I love U2... I love the Joshua Tree Album. I thought this was a great Documentary. BUT...It was a total mis-use of the DVD medium. If you are looking to create value for your fans (and get them off napster) and decide to release a DVD why not use the medium to the fullest. Build a DVD with all of the videos complete (no interview interruptions). Create a second audio track with the audio interviews. And create Bonus tracks with the video interviews. Add another bonus of the full audio tracks... and you got a great package for your fans.Instead this was a DVD that was laid out like a PBS special. Granted it was a good PBS special, but it was not what I was buying. I watched this DVD once... and I will probably not watch it again... When I buy a video, I want to watch it over and over again... you can't do that for a music DVD that has songs and videos continuously interrupted by interviews.Don't buy this unless you expect a documentary."
+19000,1,Do not buy,DO NOT BUY!!!!!!!Do not buy until they release each season in its entirety. Not this vol 1 vol 2 business. I will not buy until I can get the entire season at one time.
+19001,1,No better than any other book source,"If you are already well researched on diet, supplements, hypoglycemia, health, etc. this book doesn't really add anything new. The Claims for any new wild better eye-opening discoveries/plan/powerful simple steps will fall short and you will quickly thumb through this book and realize it did not deliver anything that you haven't already read elsewhere.If you are not well read, this is a good resource. But it really is no better than any other doctor authored book and I wouldn't recommend this book at this price because it is no better than the lower-priced books by medical doctors.It's a three star book. But I gave it two stars for over selling a book that has information widely written elsewhere and that is a letdown for an approx $25 purchase"
+19002,2,"home made bread, Wow",first gluten free bread made at home that doesn't have a sandy dry taste. Makes great sandwhiches a real treat for lunches
+19003,2,Good Common Sense Book,"I highly recommend this book for parents who are exhausted from trying to get their kids to sleep! I have used Dr. Fleiss's method with my 5-month old son, and he goes to sleep SO much easier than my first two children ever did. The book also helped me to reverse the bad sleep habits that my 2 & 3/4 year old had gotten into. I now can put three children to bed early and enjoy a relaxing evening, knowing that they are getting the rest they need. If you're afraid of letting your child cry (as I did), please read this book. It explains exactly what the consequences of the crying-it-out method are, backing it all up with the latest scientific studies. This book is so helpful. It has changed my entire thinking about sleep, and my children's needs regarding sleep. We're all much happier and well-rested thanks to Dr. Fleiss!"
+19004,1,Flimsy Roaster with dangerous rack,"After using this pan for a while, I have decided to get a different one, perhaps one I can see and feel before I buy it. The rack in this roasting pan has collapsable handles which are hard to grab since the pan's handles are in the way. I have burned myself repeatedly even using a potholder since grabbing the rack handle leaves the back of the hand exposed to the pan's fixed handles. Probably designed by someone who does not cook much.The pan's bottom is pretty flimsy and does not sit flat so that making gravy in the pan is almost impossible. It does not contact the cooktop since there is a sort of ridge around the edge which prevents the heating element from doing its job.Pretty to look at though, and if you only use it once a year for a Turkey, I suppose it might do. But for the price I paid, and the Analon name, I expected something better."
+19005,2,The Classical text for E & M,"Jackson's text still remains as the classic text for E & M. The problems are challenging and difficult I do admit. I found that having the mathematics background helped when it came to solving some of Jackson's problems. From the other reviews that I saw that gave this book low ratings probably didn't have the mathematical background to tackle this text. Before attempting to read and solve the problems of Jackson, you should have an excellent working knowledge of Multivariable calculus including vector calculus, differential equations (including partial differential equations),complex variables, Legendre and Bessel functions. If you don't have this background, you will have a very difficult time with this book."
+19006,1,Cannot Install,I have Windows 98SE and this will not install. Support has not been helpful (nothing more than automated replies). Don't waste your money.
+19007,2,Perfect flick for all shopaholics!,"I love to shop. And Confessions of a shopaholic just connected with me and probably also connected with various other shopaholics! This movie can be watched again and again. And is perfect for a chick flick night :] Shoud watch, just for the heck of it! Nice movie, overall."
+19008,2,You get what you pay for,"If you're looking for inexpensive binoculars, don't complain when they don't work like a $300 pair of binoculars. I got these for the sole purpose of my kids having some to play with when we go camping. For the price, they're GREAT!!! They actually see very well. Even my husband and I use them. I would strongly recommend these to anyone looking for some cheap binoculars."
+19009,1,Don't waste your money!,"I had to return this because it doesn't work! The infomercial makes it seem like the steam it produces can clean everything with ease. I wanted to get the corners of my oven clean, where the self-cleaning cycle doesn't reach-and I set this product up, waited for the steam and proceeded to spray the area. Needless to say not only didn't it clean it, but it started spitting out hot water and made a mess. Don't waste your time!"
+19010,2,Nice Jersey!,"I bought this adidas Swingman last July after ""The Decision"" and wore it to watch during games all season. It's nice and light and surprisingly durable after many washes. The body is mesh and has a screen printed tackle twill front word mark, player name and front and back number. All logos looks exactly like the on court jersey. Make sure you get all three colors! (Red, White, and Black)"
+19011,2,Great service!,"Chair shipped on time. Lightweight to carry, comfortable seating. Compartments to hold almost anything you need to have along--reading material, sunscreen, or your favorite drink & snacks. Lots of color options to pick from!"
+19012,2,gleeful,wow<<
+19108,1,WWII in HD review and critique,"I really respect Gary Sinise and his work but this series is so jumbled and confusing as to not be in his realm of quality work. I can't figure out what I'm viewing as in most war documentaries and worse , there are no language subtitles and those of us hard of hearing miss much of what is being said. MY God, the audience for this material is the senior citizen and many of us are hard of hearing. Granted I have not seen many of these films but I'd like to know what I'm seeing. I'm consideringa return of this item. Don Mac Lagan"
+19109,1,THIS BOOK IS SOOOOOOOO BORING,"This is one of the worst books I have ever read. It is soooooo boring and useless. So if you dont like boring books, dont read the odyssey."
+19110,1,For Racing/Road Bikes Only!,"First off, I want to say that this pump is amazing and works great.... If used for a a racing or road bike with very small tires that require a high pressure. My low rating is here to help those who might accidentally buy it for a hybrid or mountain bike.This thing is not capable of filling up tires in hybrid bikes or mountain bikes. Even using a skinnier tire (35mm) this pump failed to pump at all even after several minutes of trying. In fact, I LOST tire pressure. I took it in to a bike shop, thinking the pump was broken, and the employee showed me the error of my ways.So if you are trying to fill up a hybrid or mountain bike, pass on this pump. If you want to fill up a road bike, this pump is amazing."
+19111,1,misleading photo,"Your listing provides a picture of the older model Lee hand primer, The model number is for the new model, I ordered two because I prefer the old model and had hoped that the vendor had old stock. Yep I didn't cross check the model number so thats my bad, not putting in a new picture that accurately represents your product in a digital era where such changes are instant and almost cost free, your bad."
+19112,2,Excellent,A masterclass for screenwriters to inject the much-needed emotional angle into scenes. This is another great example of a lecture in that Expo series.
+19113,1,An okay CD.,"I think this CD is not for everyone. I enjoyed this CD because it had three great tracks, No Association, Cemetery, and Learn To Hate. I think the rest of the tracks seem a little whiny (NO OFFESE). But, if you enjoy Silverchair this is a great CD to own."
+19114,1,Does not seem well made,"I was looking for a very fine grit to finish off the sharpening process. The surface seemed rough and uneven to start but improved after some break in. My issue was that there was a sizable burr along the edge of the sharpening surface. Any blade I tied to sharpen would snag, and I had to knock down the burr with another diamond sharpener. I preferred the 1200 grit sharpener produced by DMT compared to this one. Ultimately DMT A4EE (8000 grit) fit what I was looking for."
+19115,2,This pillow is a DREAM!,"I had bought and returned a competitor's product, so I was skeptical before I received this one. I love the Snoozer Dreamweaver! It is thick enough, but not too thick, pliable, but not too stiff...they really got it perfect."
+19116,2,You Have to Read This Book!,"If you want to change your life, find the love of your life and are prepared to radically change the way you date to do so, then you have to read this book! There are a lot of books on the market with similar themes - this one is different as it is very comprehensive, makes sense and it works! If the concepts worked for me, they'll work for anybody.Though be warned - if you are not prepared to do the work, you won't find this a quick-fix and you will be disappointed. But if you are through with game-playing, and open to some expert advice, just spend the fourteen bucks, will ya? You won't regret it!"
+19117,2,Great for beginners,"This was a great introduction book. Teaches you all about form, the lanes, etc. I would highly recommend this to anyone who wants to sharpen their bowlng game."
+19118,1,Not good for iridology at all!!!!! Get the 5x instead...,"I ordered both this 10X (sold recently on the Bernard Jensen site, but they sold out) & the 5X (after reading the other review & seeing the 5X was pretty inexpensive).For iridology, if you need something inexpensive, go with the 5X. When you look at the iris, the light is pointed in the correct direction to give you a magnification of the entire iris under light.This 10X, however does not...it distorts it & is only good for looking up close at a small part of the iris...you will not be able to see the entire iris in one view, magnified & illuminated with this tool!If you need something inexpensive for iridology, skip the 10X & go with the 5X...you'll at least be able to see! But if you have the $$ get the $50 welch allyn pen light on amazon & purchase a separate lens with 8x mag."
+19119,2,Well Written and Fast Pace,"If you're out to find a well written and fast paced book, look no further. The author's descpription of the characters and surroundings are so life like that one cant help but be drawn in. WHAT A RUSH! Needless to say, this book was impossible to put down until it was complete. I can't wait to see what Mssrs. Silverman and Litwin can come up with next. Whatever it is gentlemen, please keep the books coming!"
+19120,1,Disney is the Scrooge !,"Still no CD and 2011 Christmas is nearing? Is Disney trying for the Super-Scrooge Award? Not all of us have ipods and MP3 hook-ups. So, Disney why not do what your movie said "" share with one an all"" !"
+19121,1,Bad Editing ruins a book,"I picked this up hoping for a light mystery and found my enjoyment ruined by the misuse of a few words. Another case where trusting a computer spell checker just isn't safe-- have a friend read the last draft or get a better editor! The funniest? She never expected to benefit from her Uncle's 'largest'. (that's largesse) Other than a couple of spectacular malaprop's, this book was a decent mystery. Were the travel tips accurate? Someday I hope to find out!"
+19122,2,Broken Bow,"I purchased these because the ones that came with my Bowflex broke after only a few uses. I was expecting this because of the reviews on the product. I think it's best to warm the rods up by bending them slowly with a 10-pound rod in a exercise, first. Apparently, like with most materials, the rods become more rigid when cool. I have the Bowflex in my basement and the average temperature in the Fall/ Winter is around 50 degrees F. The replacement rods have worked well and nothing has broken since."
+19123,1,Not happy with this bug zapper,"I was very disappointed with this. The charge didn't last long. The suction generally worked, but the bugs often didn't die. The trap door also didn't stay closed. If you want a device that works 75% of the time, I recommend this."
+19124,2,Love the older music,"Bought this because I saw a documentary on Peter,Paul &Mary. Love their music and wanted something that would cover most of what I had heard so many years ago. By no means a complete selection of their music, but a very nice selection of their biggest hits from those years. Any fan will appreciate."
+19125,1,Plantronics 510 Voyager,Plantronics Voyager 510 Bluetooth Headset with Multipoint Technology [Retail Packaged]The headset is comfortable and easy to wear. The volume controls on the headset also works well and can be used.The mute button is very small and difficult to access during a call making it almost impossible to use. The mic has low volume and there is no way of increasing the mic volume which makes it difficult for people listening to hear you.
+19126,1,My key got stuck,"There are a number of design flaws with this key hider. The one that just took me ten minutes to solve is my house key got stuck inside the unit and I couldn't extricate it. Why? Two light foam pads line the inside of the key holder, presumably so some one shaking the unit won't hear a key knocking around inside. However, that same foam also prevents the key from sliding out. If I'd had tweezers, it would have been fairly easy to do; alas, the tweezers were in the house... In my battle to get the key out, I managed to reset the lock combo. Now I can't close it. And of course I no longer have instructions on how to reset the combo. Too bad. I had high expectations for this thing -- I liked the magnet and the combo factor, even though I did worry about the plastic construction of it in terms of ""force-open-ability."""
+19127,1,Knock Off,The unit itself works fine. When I wiped down the unit the cuisinart name wiped right off. I was wondering if you were selling knock off's.
+19128,1,NOT THE CORRECT CASE,This was shown as an accessory for the NUVI I purchased but it isn't the correct case for that unit.
+19129,2,How To Love A Piano,"What virtues could a lighthearted memoir of a man looking for and caring for a piano have? Firstly, through seemingly superficial events and conversations, Carhart manages to convey his deep love for an instrument and the music it creates without trace of affectation. Secondly, he writes well and gives rounded and sometimes quirky character portraits that generates a sense of delight in every chapter. He does this without putting down anyone. Thirdly, his obsession with pianos of every make and provenance gives the book a structure that, while repetitive, can be delightfully comical. Fourthly, this book is well-informed and factual about history and music but never dry. Most importantly, and this is probably the reason why I like it, anyone trying to learn the instrument for pleasure will find a kindred spirit in this book."
+19130,2,Jar Jar is so funny.,"Jar Jar is so funny because he slurps up a frog and he splashes it into Sebulba's soup. That made my great-grandmother crack up! She read the whole book with me and she said funny things about the book. I think she was so excited that I could read it by myself, and thought that the book was extremely funny."
+19131,2,"Good for storage, but not as good at squeezing","I purchased this to help store dwindling toothpaste tubes and to get as much toothpaste out of the tube as possible. However, I found myself using another tube squeezer in conjunction with this, since this one didn't squeeze nearly as well as I'd hoped. But I found that together, this and a different squeezer created the perfect product (but only when used together, I'm much happier with my OTHER tube squeezer)."
+19132,1,Glich Heaven,"I bought this game thinking it was going to be cool as hell, But I was sadly mistaken when I got halfway through it and I kept hitting glich after glich. I thought it was my Xbox, but I took it to a friend's and glich after glich. I guess I got the worst game in history, but that's what happens when you get a massed produced game like this one"
+19133,1,"Durable, yet lightweight","I really like this flash drive. I remember when SanDisk released there ""titanium"" series, which purports to be able to be crushed by a large significant amount of weight. I even remember even seeing a video on Cnet, when they took a car, and drove over the drive and it still works.Since then, flash drives have become significantly smaller, and in suit, SanDisk has released an even smaller flash drive in the titanium series. This means that with technology, the drive becomes smaller, and with SanDisk encasing it in Titanium steel --you still get that durability.I love this thing and if you are looking for a flash drive reliable both logically and physically, I'd go with this one."
+19134,1,"LAME outdated, mainstream information","This magazine is a joke. The first three issues had nothing that could not be found in a twenty year old issue of Self magazine. It reads like a statin advertisement, spewing the same old bull about high cholesterol without mentioning any of the myriad negative side effects of statins (like killing you of liver disease before you are even old enough to have heart disease).It contains very little research information, and nothing that is original or cutting edge in regards to prevention or nutrition. Complete waste of money!"
+19135,2,SWAT,"Inspired by the 1970s action-packed TV series with the catchy theme song, this modern-day ""S.W.A.T."" stars Colin Farrell as Jim Street, an L.A.P.D. cop who joins the department's elite special weapons and tactics unit commandeered by Hondo (Samuel Jackson). They're up against a drug lord (Olivier Martinez) who's offering a million dollars to the first person whosprings him from jail. Only the S.W.A.T. team can stop his plan.Starring: Samuel L. Jackson, Colin Farrell, MoreRATEDPG For violence, language and sexual referencesJudging from the review from the guy in England, this has to appeal to us in the US! Wild shoot em ups, some close to realistic SWAT tactics, lots of guns, lots of sex and cussing! PERFECT. My wife did make me sit through Chocolat again though. Sometimes a man just wants to watch an action movie. SWAT fit the bill better than most ""action"" movies currently out. I enjoyed it.(...)"
+19136,1,Don't Buy This Game!,"What a waste of money! I've spent a week trying to get this thing to work. The online support either doesn't work, they're off for the day, or gives advice that doesn't work. They should be paying me to go through this. Don't buy it! Spend your money on another product."
+19137,2,Amazing!,This cable is amazing i have the Logitech z-5500 and i bought that cable and the sound quality improved a lot i feel the sound harder and with more fidelity and is pretty but don't think is just another expensive cable. really its amazing!
+19138,1,Tried it and am returning it; Not worth the time and the money!,"I tried this little gadget thinking it would be something great. I thought I would at least get some radio quality out of it, just like the reviews stated. Instead, all I received was static, everytime I played my iPod. It didn't matter what ""empty"" station there was out there. Whenever I listened to one of my playlists, because of the audio quality difference from song to song, I found that I had to turn the bass or treble down and/or up on my car stereo significantly. I had to play with the EQ or keep turning the volume on the iPod down. I could get into a car accident trying just to get some good radio quality out of it. All you get is static. This product was not worth the time that I waited for it, and not worth my money. I read great reviews for an iRiver transmitter, that'll be my next try. This one here, the Griffin iTrip is on its way back to Amazon to meet its maker."
+19139,1,A piece of junk - deserves 0 stars.,I got this because the black model had a couple of favorable reviews. From now on I only trust the negative ones. RCA should never have made this & Amazon should not be selling it. Caveat emptor!
+19140,2,"Great packaging, perfect price",This was a perfect Christmas gift for my Narnia fans. It's the best price out there for all the DVDs included plus digital c
+19141,2,Enjoyable debut,"Don't confuse Innosense with that ""other"" girl group the Spice Girls. These new girls on the block show that with tight harmony, great beats and some style, they can take the world by storm.Standout tracks on the album include the haunting ""Rain Rain"", the Diane Warren penned tracked ""You Didn't Have to Hurt Me"" and ""A Hundred Oceans"", the old school R&B flavored ""A Real Good Man"" and the funky rap/chant vibe of ""Ride"". The album is a mix of today's ""pop"" sound, with a twist. They can take it from the mellow ""So Together"" to the cyberspace themed ""www.fan-ta-see"" without missing a beat. I was most impressed with the harmonies and arrangements within the songs, that's where they shine. I would reccomend this to anyone who is looking for a great pop/dance album. (and check out www.innosensemusic.com for clips of all the songs)"
+19142,2,Wonderful! Another Lowell masterpiece.,As always with Lowell's books I found myself picking up Dark Fire to read again and again. This is a wonderful story that I'm sure everyone will enjoy.

+19144,1,"Genie in a Bottle is great, but that's about it",The rest of the CD is trash. The songs all sound the same and none are very compelling. You can't really listen to it all the way through without getting annoyed.
+19145,1,Quality of the product,"I bought differnt stools and they're great but you can tell that these stools and table are of a poor quality. Besides missing some parts to put it together, the foam and built of the stools and table are of a poor quality"
+19146,1,Very little depth.,"Not much more here than you would find in a high school book review of Kevin Mitnicks work. You won't find anything compelling, just a brief overview. Skip the ebook and do as the author suggests; put in a web search for ""social engineering"" and you will certainly get more out of that."
+19147,1,Confused over order!,"I looked through the catalog for Liberty Orchards a long time. I was looking for the apple candies. I had tasted my first that day. I thought I was ordering a tin as pictured with four different flavored bites, but when I got my order for $23 or more, it was a tiny 10 oz. bag. Why in the world would you not picture the bag of candies for this item, instead of the whole tin. I had studied the book for a long time, and thought I was getting a good deal. No good deal there, and I am disappointed. I am the idiot. I'm buying my stuff in the stores from now on."
+19148,2,Great Little Book,"We Think The World Of You is basically a tale of ""you don'tget what you want you get what you get"". In the case of Frankhe wanted Johnny but ends up with a dog named Evie. An amusingand sly look at some working class personalities and carry on.Fantastic book !John"
+19149,1,The War,I could not play the movie on any of my dvd players because it was HD dvd. I thought it was blue ray.
+19150,1,BUSINESS CARD CASE NIGHTMARE,They got the engraving wrong 3 separate times !! The hinges are also cheaply made - in fact the whole product is very flimsy. Do yourself a favor and buy one of these from a different company. Got a full refund (including shipping) after the third screw-up.
+19151,2,Terrific Bird Feeder,"My wife bought gave me this feeder for my birthday. It took all of two days for it to arrive in perfect condition. Granted, this feeder may seem a bit pricey at first, but when you open up the box, you'll see why. Excellent construction out of quality materials that are meant to last. It can also be easily disassembled (without tools) and loaded into the dishwasher for periodic cleaning.As for being squirrel-proof, so far the pesky little devils in my neighborhood have yet to figure out how to defeat it and now seem to have given up. I've gone through many feeders over the years and this one I have to say is by far the best I've ever had. I wish I could say this feeder is made in America, but alas, it is made in China. Even so, I highly recommend it to anyone interested in purchasing a feeder that will provide years of service."
+19152,1,"Lots of one-sided political philosopy, very little history",This book is simply ham-handed political propaganda masquerading as history. Much of the space is spent indulging the author's rather naive philosophies while making only token attempts to justify projecting those philosophies upon the people and states described.
+19153,1,The Best of John Denver,This is an import CD. The music is still very good but remember that these versions of the songs may not be the ones you remember growing up and listening to on the radio. I therefore gave it only one star because I was hoping that the cd had the original studio versions.Best of John Denver.
+19154,2,Excellent resource,"A young friend of mine was struggling in math(algebra). I am not the sharpest tack when it comes to math, so I shopped aroundfor the best resource I could find, and I came across this little gem. So certain are the authors that your math grades will improve in 30 days, that they offer a full refund if you are notsatisfied. After tutoring my friend, who was flunking algebra,she earned a B on her next report card. I have since used thismost excellent resource to polish up my own math skills, with great effect. There could probably be more examples, especiallyfor the more difficult math problems, but I still highly recommend this book."

+19156,2,Deep pan allows for plenty of layers...at a good price,"I've always wanted a lasagna pan that would allow for plenty of layers, and this one is just what I was looking for. I was able to make a 4-layer lasagna that turned out just wonderful. On the second day, the servings were easy to cut into neat and even pieces with the spatula that comes with the pan. On the third day, I used the spatula to cut perfectly proportioned servings, wrap them individually in plastic wrap, and put them in the freezer. They are ready to take out as needed, unwrap, pop them onto a plate, and microwave.The pan is surprisingly light weight and yet heavy enough to bake without burning the food. It cleaned up in a flash; no soaking required. I can't see any reason to pay more for a lasagna pan when this one does the job beautifully."
+19157,2,Cute,This is light-hearted and fun with a cute twist to the old tale. If you like Carol Burnett it is a joy.
+19158,1,This Rear Window needs to be tossed out the rear window!!,"I always loved Jimmy Steward, and Grace Kelly was a princess of an actress, but it was Hitchcock who made any of his movies the superb classics they became. Please, please re-release the original, and I will be first in line to buy it."
+19159,2,"Fantastic fidelity, excellent performances..","Anyone who's seen these guys play knows that the show will be tight, and that the recording will be as clean as technology permits. At first glance, it's hard to get excited about the song selection, but give your glancers a rest and open your ears. ""Tom Sawyer"", ""Freewill"", and ""The Trees"" all sound quite new on this disc, even though all three can be heard on ""Exit...Stage Left"". I confess to being one of those Rush fans who had stopped buying Rush discs in the early 90's, because to me the music was....well, cold. This recording sounds warmer, more human. The clever mix of audience sound with the songs makes the listener more aware of the excitement of the show."
+19160,1,only for taking out large object only,"I'm very disappointed in this product, the pore size of the net is so large I cannot really clean my turtle's left over stuff down at the bottom of the tank, I think this is designed for scoop out the fish or for large object only :("
+19161,1,About as awful a work of fiction as you can find.,"I absolutely loved the Mayfair witches novels - until ""Taltos."" Then the series took off in a direction that can only be classified as ""tripe."" Poor Anne Rice - I think she has finally run out of inspiration for her novels of the supernatural. Having suffered through ""Blackwood Farm,"" I thought, well, let's try one more time. Thank heaven Ms. Rice is putting the Vampire Lestate to bed (in fiction, at least - there's rumours of a Broadway musical, heaven forfend!). The legion of fans who have made Ms. Rice a best-selling author deserve better than this sloppy, boring, idiocy that passes for fiction. Pass it by and re-read ""The Witching Hour,"" if you need a Rice fix."
+19162,1,Ok printer,"Pros: Good print qualityCons: Slow scan speed, not great scan quality. Internet connection would fail every day and require restarting the printer by unplugging it. Stopped turning on after 2 years - granted that's not short, but I expect my printer to last more than two years."
+19163,1,Where is the extended?,"I agree with most that it blows that they have not released the extended and theatrical at the same time. However, I cannot give it a one star rating because I hated how much the director eff'ed up the Return of the King in the theatrical release. I hated even more what he did with the extended editions. So I am only bummed that they did not release the Fellowship and Two Towers extended."
+19164,1,poor,Terribly dissapointed after buying avengers part 1. Don't expect to see more than 1 minute of the Hulk in this one. Very poor.
+19165,1,The middle half was so boring!,"I really like watching Roman soldiers, so I was looking forward to seeing this DVD. However, I saw it last night and it was BORING! The first 20 minutes were exciting enough, but then after the commander gets wounded in battle, the next half of the movie is majorly slow and completely uneventful. Instead of rich and exciting battle scenes with lots of soldiers, the story changes to just dumb scene after scene of the wounded commander and his faithful friend slowly riding on horesback around Britain --just the two of them! This middle half of the film was so tedious and devoid of anything interesting, that I turned it off after about 45 minutes. I tried in vain to fast forward through all the slowpoke crap, but it was fruitless, because the weary nothing just went on and on and on!BIG DISAPPOINTMENT!"
+19166,2,Shawn is always Outstanding,"I've been a Shawn Mullins fan for 5 years now, and am very happy to see him getting his much deserved fame. One thing I find amusing though, is that Soul's Core is my least favorite album of his (not to say I don't like it - it is still a great album). If you like Soul's Core, I would highly recommend Eggshells, Big Blue Sky, and Better Days."
+19167,1,Cokleman 2 burner stove,Surprised at the poor quality. Not like the old coleman stoves. One hinge was completely loose due to 2 rivets pulled out. The whole thing is rivited together. The only thing that resembles anything like the old Coleman stoves is the color. Very poorly put together and very flimsy.
+19168,1,The Watch is not a very good movie.,Very surprised that Ben Stiller and Vince Vaughn were in such a poorly made movie. Couldn't even finish it. I do not recommend this movie.
+19169,2,Bakes well!,"I purchased this item and was very pleasantly surprised at the quality of the pan. Being a brownie lover, I haven't had a negative experience yet with this product."
+19170,1,Defective product,I bought the same charger from someone else on ebay. The charger died within seconds of being plugged into a normal outlet. This is a defective product.
+19171,2,Tommy Roe at his 97% best !,"I am a big fan of Tommy ... and as a former DJ I absolutely loved to play his songs on the air. They had so much energy. BUT BUT BUT ... why is ""Carol"" by Tommy not available anywhere ???? His version is miles better than the original by Chuck Berry. Oh well."
+19172,1,Made a pilot's wife look REAL stupid!!,"I am a commercial airline pilot's wife, in fact my husband flies international. After reading this book I had to check to see if I still had a pulse, because I felt it lacked in so much. Us wives do communicate with our husbands when they are away on trips, even if they are flying international. It would have been pretty hard for Jack to have a 2nd wife if wife #1 took an ounce of interest in him. Just because the man is up in the air most of the time doesn't mean the wife is always kept in the dark. Her character was so unreal. Us spouses are very much in touch with our husbands and their whereabouts. Didn't sound like Jack's wife took advantage of her pass benefits very much, nor did she care to fly a trip with her husband. No wonder Jack found a wife across the ocean!!"
+19173,1,Inane,"I liked Lieberman's book ""make peace with anyone"" but this one is terrible. 302 pages of inane advice. Chapter 24. ""why do I enjoy being angry?"" Lieberman suggests I ""find excitement in other ways"" Wow. How about, chapter 25, ""why do I do the stupidest things?"" well, I should ""learn from mistakes, cut your losses, and move on"", ok, right, no more books by David Lieberman bought online. I'm going to ""interpret situations positively when possible"" and use Search inside the book option to avoid making this mistake again"
+19174,1,bad movie.....but GREAT music.,"this movie was o.k. but the special effects aren't that good and the dudding is terrible and ther were some plot holes i think this movie should be better off without the anmerican parts. but the music in hear was great very dramatic and evil music for a g-film, so i bought the sountrack with other hesisi g-movies.so good music in a dissappointing movie if you want a really good godzilla movie check out godzilla vs. destroyer. by the way the name is j.d."
+19175,1,Annoying bugs!,"I bought this CD because a review said there were no annoying loud birds...well, the bugs are louder than the rain or river and sound like grating metal. The first track is supposed to be rain, but you really can't hear the rain, it's so soft. You sure can hear the bugs! After only 2 minutes I couldn't stand it. It's a little like the 17 year cicada invasions. The river in the second track is louder than the rain on the first track, but there are still loud bugs. The third track has many birds. I love birds, but there was little variety and most of the bird calls were non-melodic and uninteresting. I did not find this CD to be at all relaxing."
+19176,2,Well Written,"If you are a fan of the show ""Firefly"", this book, based on the movie, will be a treasure. It is written from Mal's perspective and shows the same dialogue from the movie plus a lot of Mal's thinking during the entire movie. The style is so spot-on that anyone can feel that Mal wrote it.A good, fast read."
+19177,1,Wrong Version,I was disappointed that it wasn't clear what version of xbox this worked on. Or perhaps I didn't see it in the desctiption. Anyway itdid not work with their xbox.
+19178,2,Chanukkah treasure,"I was recommended to this book when i was looking for something to read to my grand dughters' pre school class. This is an excellent story for the under fives. It is also excellent for audiences that are not jewish as an introduction to the holiday that is light hearted and not too ""Religious""."
+19179,2,A river of darkness,"""And if you gaze into the abyss,the abyss gazes also in to you""-Nietzsche- (beyond good and evil)I'm 26, to a reader of my generation is very difficult to approach this novel without remembering scenes from Coppola's mesmerical movie, but, once you get on the boat and start going up river, you are way beyond anything previously told.Conrad's story deals with the perils of a young sailor,Marlow, sent to find old, misterious man Kurtz, to do this Marlow takes a boat up a river deep in the heart of the dark congo, as the story moves on, the plot gets more and more psycological, as if with every mile travelled the narration needed to get more technical, more insightful.The heart of darkness takes us too close to a sane mind going off the ground, it's a wonderful book."
+19180,1,Sloooow and boooring,I have really been looking forward to a new SSI D&D game. A good old fashioned dungeon crawl with awesome graphics sounded like a lot of fun. It should be. It really should be.It isn't. The problems?The customization of characters is very limited. You get to create four cookie cutter characters. You might as well start with the pre-made characters for all the thought that goes into it. The game action is terribly slow. It takes forever to get anywhere. By the time you get through a few rooms you are so bored you can't stand it. I bought this game the day it came out and I have been trying to like it every since. I have just given up. That's $40 I will never see again. Oh well lesson learned.By the way the music is pretty good and the movement (slow as it is) is fluid and life-like. I also have had no problems with crashes but then I have a fairly high end system.I wouldn't buy this game unless you are a very patient person. I reccomend instead Baldur's Gate II.
+19181,1,Child Killer,"She's a harpie, a liar, a thief, and a mass murderer of police, soldiers, and children. Anyone who buys this book, or sells it, is helping the NRA murder more children and police. She's also helping the Bush traitors lie to and kill our soldiers in Iraq, our heroes. And the unconscionable comments she's made about the 911 widows....The list of atrocities goes on. DON'T BUY THIS BOOK!"
+19182,2,Great!,"When I was a little kid. I would try to watch these movies but they really freaked me out. Now that im 15 I had to give this one a try. Freddy's Dead was on television and once I saw one part with Freddy and Carlos(Carlo's ear) it freaked me out, but now I watched the whole movie of this and I have to buy the 8 disc box collection. I just special ordered it. This movie was really good. I can't wait to see all the other movies even that one part in Nightmare 6 with Carlos. Maybe this time I don't think it would be as bad, but I think everyone should give this movie a try. Wes Craven is very creative. I've seen his other work like Wishmaster 1-4 and he's done pretty good job. Check this one out!"
+19183,1,DONT BUY IT! SAVE YOUR MONEY! IT'S GARBAGE!,"Hmm, where to begin. First, pretty box, but nothing inside. no manual. Second, after installing, every time you try to play the game and insert the CD, it tries to re-install itself. The graphics are a very poor attempt. In fact they dont even come close to Jane's WWII Fighters released 5 years ago... DONT BE FOOLED- ATTACK SQUADRON is nothing like the older Jane's games by EA. This one is from XICAT and it is total rubbish. There is not enough room here to fit all it's shortcomings and failures, but the point is, for [the price] you can get several very good flight sims like Combat Flight Simulator (2) from Microsoft, IL-2 Sturmovik,or if you are lucky you can find the old Janes WWII Fighters.trust me, you'll be kicking yourself in the pants for buying this,It's a moneymaker, not qt all a quality game. You'll be making a quick trip to EB to hock this thing once you try it...."
+19184,2,I've seen it a thousand times -- literally!,"And I am a person who can rarely watch a movie twice. My friends and I can quote exact lines from the movie at the slightest prompting. The dialogue is at once intensely heart wrenching and side splittingly hilarious. Also, this is probably the only major motion picture ever made without a single female character, not even an extra. Imagine that."
+19185,2,Excellent CD!,"I only recently learned about this band. This greatest hits CD contains lots of the songs played on satellite radio while I'm driving to work. Great band ! I love the singer. I only wish they were not broken up. An excellent bargain for a fan, new or old!"
+19186,2,Lots of great transcripts,"John's book is written as a collection of transcripts from various places and times in theJohn - ..""Client- ..""John - ..""format, and as you read through them you glean all manner of answers from the afterlife. If you're reading them in conjunction with current research on past life therapy, life between lives regression, and even ancient writings, the cases that John presents support the theory of the immortal soul, Karma and pre-destiny for soul growth. Otherwise, if you're reading John Edwards for comfort and reassurance that the soul personality exists indefinitely and stays in contact with this human existence, his case studies more than satisfy. Read Gordon Jones and Michael Newton as well and they'll change the way you view death and the afterlife."
+19187,1,"Oh, my, what a good person she is","She is so good that she is so very boring. If you want an old-fashioned novel, read Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm. Much better and more fun.In the second book of Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm, The New Chronicles of Rebecca, there is a very sweet story about overcoming fear. It is about ""Elisha, otherwise Nimbi-Pamby"" and his trials with a cow. It shows how to tell a moral story using flawed characters, adults and children working together, and fun."
+19188,2,Does the job,"This is a basic strap, works fine. Only wish it was a little firmer; the fabric may fold lengthwise which makes it harder to grip."
+19189,2,Motel of the Mysteries,Great and interesting book for adolescents! I would highly recommend this book because it will keep you on the edge of your seats.
+19190,1,Yuck,"This is a review of the audio book...I couldn't get past CD 2. The protagonist/narrator is so impressed with herself, her intellect, and her physical appearance I couldn't stand it. The book seems written for the most indiscriminate and easily impressed of readers. When Temperance (or somebody else) quoted Jerry McGuire ""show me the money"", (gee, that's original) I was through. The rambling plot is very typical of the genre and the characters with whom we should sympathize are obnoxious. The TV character is much more interesting...the brilliant Temperance on television is often socially inappropriate, which makes her interesting and kind of endearing, the Temperance in this book is just kind of snarky and self-satisfied."
+19191,1,Would give 0 stars if I could... HATE THIS COMPANY,"In good faith I bought Novastor. 6 months into it, I upgraded my computer to a Windows 8. Couldn't get my software installed on the new machine for some crazy reason only to discover that my Novastor version is not compatible with Win8.To fix it, I have to PAY Novastor for an upgrade. SHAME ON YOU NOVASTOR. Disgusting ethics and disappointing policies."
+19192,1,Como pueden llamarla la primera feminista?,"Le estoy dando una estrella a este libro porque no puedo darle menos. Sinceramente senti pena ajena al leer el poco respeto y autoestima que tenia esta mujer para ella misma. El estilo ni siquiera es interesante, la lectura francamente se me hizo aburrida y ni siquiera pude terminar de leerlo. Mas que publicar su diario, Anais Nin lo que necesitaba era terapia urgente."
+19193,1,"Want to like it, but don't.","I actually wish I did like this brush! The concept is good but the execution isn't in my opinion. I DO like the suction on the bottom, but that's it.This bottle brush will fit in standard size bottles, you just have to push it in a little harder. I use these on my Dr. Brown's (standard size) bottles. Gross, I know, but there have been a few times where we came across a used bottle we didn't know was missing (fell behind something, or my other child took of with it...). When I went to clean it this brush hardly cleaned the bottom at all, especially around the rounded edges of the bottom of the bottle. Because the brush is such a tight fit and the bristles are very hard, you can't angle it, it's up and down motions only.The thing I hate most about this brush? Pulling it back out of the bottle. The bristles all get compressed to fit back through the bottle neck and then snap back into place literally spraying you with soapy, dirty bottle water."

+19196,1,"Spirits, Fairies, Leprechauns, and Goblins","Not really crazy about this book. It is not playful, and is too much like a research/fact book. Like going out and learning all the botanical names for flowers, rather than seeing the beauty of them"
+19197,1,Crap songs,"There are only 4 songs I like on here. They are Soul Provider, Steel Bars, How Can We Be Lovers? and Said I Loved You... But I Lied. I mean, let's face it, he's not much of a good singer, you don't hear much about him anymore (I'd like to see him make a comeback because his last ""Comeback"" album did not even hit the top 20 - V.poor) and also he tries too hard.Overall - 4 Good Songs. 2 Stars out of 5 Stars. 23%(1 star - 0-20%)(2 stars - 21-40%)(3 stars - 41-60%)(4 stars - 61-80%)(5 stars - 81-100%)A rather rubbish album and a not very representitive Greatest Hits collection."
+19198,2,The Truth about obama from facts about his upbringing!,The libtard element won't like this movie because it reveals the true background and upbringing of Barack Obama. The movie does not dispute obama's birth place nor does it call him a muslim or a communist. Rather from his own autobiography and from interviewing people from his past it sheds light on why he has made the choices he has. For those undecided or former followers of obama this movie will open up your eyes to the man who is potus.
+19199,2,Big surprize!,"I read the book before I bought the video, and as is usually the case, the movie did not quite reach the level of enjoyment as the book, but it was darn close. The cast was well picked, and did a great job. I thought there might have been a little too much preaching than was needed, but it was, after all, meant to be delivering a strong message. Good family video if you, the parent, have the time to explain what is going on to the younger viewers. Buy this video, and watch it often."

I've gone through a LOT of waxes but it seems most of the microwaveable variety are really crappy. Not only is this one bad at removing hair, it's also REALLY MESSY. It sticks to everything yuck! Still looking for something better but this isn't it..."
+19203,2,super natural,Got this as soon as it released for my sons birthday. Him & his friends love this series. Im sure the hope there continue to be future seasons
+19204,1,"Thorough, but disappointing.","Thanks for the opportunity to review the Verb Wheel.I have found it very hard to use because of the size and type of font used, basically.I'm 65, and I use glasses, but it is still difficult to deal with.This is a shame because informationwise it's loaded !So..a flawed gem, in a sense.Phil Bird"
+19205,1,Ninety-nine percent padding,"One wonders how Berger defines ""life,"", since this supposed ""inside view of life with an NHL team"" in fact consists almost exclusively of descriptions of airports, driving routes, views from hotel windows, and arena color schemes, interspersed with game reports as colorless and cursory as wire-service clippings; he relates almost nothing about what the members of an NHL team do, think, or feel on the road. Berger claims to be respecting the players' privacy, but one soon wonders if the Leafs were even there. Nor is the book improved by being infested with superfluous hyphens and other authorial solecisms, though some of Berger's frequent malapropisms inadvertently provide comic relief from the tedium."
+19206,1,Stock up on her influences first,"I'm such a big fan of Tori Amos and Kate Bush that I gave this album a chance to grow on me and really, really tried to like Charlotte too. The problem is she sounds like such a knockoff of her influences all I can hear is her copycat style, no true depth or originality. No offense to her fans but sorry, I have to agree with the minority here and say she needs to develop a little more of her own musical identity and stop sounding like her mentors. If you think you like Charlotte but don't have all of Tori and Kate's work in your library yet, I suggest you start there. For now, I'll give Charlotte two stars for potential."
+19207,2,Dear Mr. Henshaw Review by Charlie,"Dear Mr. Henshaw by Beverly Cleary is a funny book, filled with surprises. I would give this book five stars. It is a book about a kid named Leigh who keeps writing to an author named Mr. Henshaw. Leigh's parents were recently divorced and Leigh is annoyed about it. The way Leigh's mother and father have been acting is making him sick. Leigh has no friends because he is the new kid in school. That makes me sad. Leigh then becomes friends with the janitor which is weird. Leigh keeps having food stolen from his lunchbox everyday. He becomes furious with his treats getting stolen. I would recommend this book because it is a hilarious book to read."
+19208,2,A CLASSIC!,Every track is really good. Along with the Beatles's Revolver this is the only CD I can listen to two times in a row.
+19209,1,Rating for Kindle version only,"I love this book so this rating is only for the Kindle version, which abounds with misspellings due to scanning and no editing before publishing. I enjoy my Kindle but find the lack of attention paid to the electronic books by publishers frustrating."
+19210,2,Excellent,"Had a Zo unit, same style. This one is well made, better than Zo. PLUS it's made in Japan (still). For fast/great rice making while making the rest of the meal, and having it ready on time. This is fool proof!"
+19211,2,An amazing marriage of styles,"It's been decades so everyone has an opinion on the success of Crash and I'm not here to try to change anyones mind. But in my opinion, this has to be one of the more inspired marriages of two very different styles on record. What I don't get is why so many people are against a band trying something new and partnering with different producers to try out a different style. I guess if you have no other outlet and need your favorites to feed you the same stuff ad infinitum then it's understandable. But come on, that's just boring, most of all for the artist. For a Brit electro-pop band to partner with a Minneapolis funk R&B producer and have such great results as this is amazing. Its not the best album in the world but it is definitely really good."
+19212,2,Great Iron setup,"This is a great iron. I used to have a Radio Shack iron that was bulky and always got dirty. Having this setup with the temperature control and built-in sponge will save you lots of hassle.I've only had it for about 2 weeks, but I've used it for about 10 hours at least. Get the extra tips and the desoldering wick if you are planning a serious project. (I was changing out LEDs in 5 exit signs so I had to remove them and put new ones in. The bigger tips work well for desoldering, the little tips work great for installing small items)I see no need to get a more expensive model..."
+19213,1,Watch out for back cover!,"I ordered this book as a gift and found it completely unsuitable because of the photo on the backcover. The gift was intended for a father of 2 small children; he certainly would not want a book with a cover photo of a man with a vulgar word written on his forehead and making a vulgar gesture. Neither one of us is a prude, but this is something you don't want around children. I only wish that Amazon could let customers know what the back cover looks like in cases like this. I wasted money and time! I'm sure the inside content would have been interesting, but a coffee table book's cover--back AND front--need to be suitable for public consumption."
+19214,1,Was Disappointed,"I chose to rent before buying; and am I ever glad that I did. I loved MIB; not MIBII, and for me the only saving grace for the third installment was Josh Brolin. No one else could have portrayed a young Tommy Lee Jones with what appeared to be such ease.The story line could have been stronger; and I have to ask why did they cast Emma Thompson?As others have stated, Will Smith certainly could have used more sass; and it seemed to me that even the aliens were old and tired, I can't imagine that these men needed the salaries they were paid; so why did they not insist upon a better production.I may watch it again, as they offer 48 hour rental, but as it stands now I'd have to say, watch the trailer; it containes the best scenes and most laughs."
+19215,2,Such a Fun Game,"I got this game on the pretext of getting it for the kids, but really got it because I thought it looked fun. It's been a lot of fun helping the kids through the levels and finding those golden bolts hidden throughout the game. There are only a few things I didn't like about the game, or rather thought was frustrating. Changing weapons is a pain. You have to go to a separate menu to get to your items and weapons. Another thing is that the last few levels are so difficult it was even hard for me to get through and impossible for my kids. Other than those issues, the levels are fun and colorful. The little upgrades, new weapons, and new items make leveling up fun."
+19216,1,Didnt work,This item did not work. I took it as directed and I got bloated and gassy and constipated. This is the second in this line that I have tried and got the same effect. I will not use this brand again.
+19217,2,One of my favorites,"My biggest problem was it wouldn't work in my DVD player hooked to the TV, but it would work in my little portable one so I'm happy."
+19218,1,wrong dvd,"we ordered both vol. 3 and vol. 4 of the AccelerRacers.although the packaging on both the case and disk of vol. 3 said it was Breaking Point, the actual movie was Ultimate Race which is vol. 4. My son did not let me know this before it was past time to return the product , so we are stuck with 2 copies of vol. 4.check your copy when you receive it to make sure it is the correct volume."
+19219,2,a masterpiece,"It seems to be Gene Wolfe's fate that his most marvelous works be re-issued by his current publisher with the most hideous, second-rate cover designs. While Peace may be an after-thought for his editor, it certainly is not for his readers. Peace is a haunting selection of memories, nightmares and moments of joy from the life of a very successful, lonely old businessman named Alden Weer. So carefully and cleverly is the story written, that at times you are not sure whether the narrator is deluding himself or only for the first time confronting the possibility that he is guilty not only of neglect...but of monstrous crimes. As for the reader below who apparently likes his fiction explicated in color-by-numbers fashion, anything written for adults would probably strike him as hopelessly impenetrable as James Joyce."
+19220,1,"Beware not Original, Singer below average","The songs are really cover version ie not original and no where come close to the King Kishore Kumar. Overall the singer 'Ravi Kulkarni' sounds below average singer. Don't waste your money, but original and original are available in the market."
+19221,1,Poor Reliability,"I bought this ten months ago. With very light use, the channel and volume buttons failed.I have now had three versions of this remote, and all failed within a year.I especially liked this version, but anything that consistently fails across models must not be trusted. I am not buying any more Sony."
+19222,2,Hoped for better audio,"Good concert, BUT, Piano highs were tinny and too loud. Somehow the balance was off, which demished my appreciation of this DVD. But still a great concert."
+19223,2,Just what I needed.,I was glad to be able to get this filter via the internet. It was a cinch to install even for a 76 year old woman.
+19224,1,Terrible rendition,I'm not going to repeat what other reviewers who have also given this production of Persuasion 1 star have said - they have been exactly right - I'm only adding my one star to bring the rating down as a whole. I pre-ordered this sight-unseen based on other British productions of Jane Austen which have at least striven for authenticity. Watching this version of Persuasion was truly horrible and my copy is going into circulation as a used version to keep people who don't know better from buying directly from the producers.
+19225,2,Windows XP Pro and Windows Vista Business computers,"I have just set this up using 2 computers: one Win XP Pro and one Win Vista Business and although Vista wants to be first, it's working remarkably well for a low cost, low end solution. I simply wanted to share sound and keyboard only, so have not tested the monitor sharing, but was surprised this even worked at all and am very pleased."
+19226,2,Loosens earwax with ease!,"My child has a dry earwax that chuncks up in the ear canal and won't come out for anything. A couple drops in each ear, wait 10 min or so, and the wax loosens right up off the skin and can be coaxed or washed out easily.I would've given 5 stars, but I wonder if this is the same as olive oil, baby oil or mineral oil which I already have in the home? But I would've had to buy a dropper anyway. Either way, this is what I use in my child's ears, and we are both happy with the results. But when we run out I will research which of the above oils already in my home I can use."
+19227,1,Jack Deserves Better,"This is a monumental letdown. Historically a hodgepodge of half truths and theories about the crimes long out of style.Depp's character is absurd and bears no resemblence to the actual Scotland Yard inspector he was portraying. Quite possibly the worst Jack the Ripper film ever made, a pity since it will now be years before anyone else with some money attempts to get it right. The real story is right there for the taking if Hollywood is ever interested---which it probably won't be. Not only is this an awful movie, it's a boring one as well."
+19228,2,This was a great book!,This was a pretty cool book. It has alot of suspense and always keeps you guessing. I almost read the book in 1 night. Id recomend this book to anyone.
+19229,1,Avoid the Rio Forge,"After a month the problems started with my Rio player. First the volume couldn't be turned down, then the songs couldn't be advanced. I patiently contacted online support and had to wait a week for a response. Each time the response wasn't complete. It told me to download something but didn't say from where. They told me to send info (including credit card #, which I didn't) and then told me my phone # was missing (which it wasn't). I re-sent the info and heard nothing for 2 1/2 weeks. After following up they told me to fax in my original receipt but didn't give a fax #. Their site has a tab for phone and fax contact info but doesn't include a fax number.Buy an iPod. You'll save yourself a lot of aggravation and time."
+19230,2,Good stuff.,"I'm going to cut and paste the same review for the shampoo and conditioner version of this.One thing I really like about Aubrey Organics shampoo and conditioner is that, based on the ingredients list, I'm pretty sure I could eat the stuff (note: don't try this at home).I use the swimmer's version after running, and it seems to work really well. I don't swim as often as I run, but when I do this seems to get the chlorine out very effectively."
+19231,1,This was the complete suck,"I watch a lot of horror B movies, this was probably the worst one. The only good part in the movie was when they were showing shots from that other movie when the bartender was chilling out and eating a sandwich. ""Die, evil sorceror."" yeah that was the only cool part. No boobies= not a good movie. This was a poor piece of garbage, don't ever buy it. The 10 bucks that was spent on it was only good for the other trailers on it. That's it. It sucks. Period ----> ."
+19232,2,The Perfect Companion,"For those who own the Lodge 12"" skillet. Patterned inside makes food cook better - but makes it harder to clean"
+19233,1,Self-Discharge rate excessive,"I have purchased close to 80 of these batteries, and found that about 1 out of every 4 had a bad discharge rate. I would charge them in sets of four, let them site for one week, then put them on a tester to see which ones were bad. I found that they normally show about 1.29V-1.30V after sitting a week, but the bad ones show about .95V. I am not at all happy with the 2500 MAh batteries, however, I was happy with Energizer's previous 2200 and 2300 MAh versions."
+19234,2,SHOCKING!,"Even though it's fiction, you are not catching me eating anymore at Fast Food stops. I am very careful where and what type of Hamburger I eat. This book open my eye's up to what could happen."
+19235,2,couldn't have shopped wisely without it!,"This is precisely the book Consumer Report Magazine would have written, if they had done it the right way the first time around...(the one they do have out is outdated and doesn't go into great details). We used this book for all our purchases, and were able to give helpful (precise) hints for the baby shower. So, for instance, instead of receiving a ""Snuggli"" baby carrier, we got a ""Baby Bjorn"" instead...and found out that its track record in Manhattan makes it an all-out winner- comfort, durability, and safety-wise. This book is one of the top five MUST HAVES for 1st time parents. We saved $ by not making purchase mistakes."
+19236,1,Irresponsible and Unconvincing,"Although getting a book published is an admirable feat for the average Joe, I must say that such is the only thing admirable about this author's endeavor.Without really any scientific or mathematical backing, the author talks circles around some of the most groundbreaking work in the area of physics in modern times. Rather than dispute such work with logic, however, this author uses doublespeak and ""common-sense"" analogies to dissuade the reader from believing what the greatest minds on the planet have asserted using mathematics, physics, logic, and the scientific process... to dissuade the reader, often, from believing much-proven fact.Whatever the motivation, this author's irresponsible work makes for an interesting read if one wishes to see what not to do when making an argument.If one is looking for an intelligent, persuasive, or piqueing new look at theories often taken for granted, one shuold definately look elsewhere."
+19237,2,A present search for our Cival War past,"As a Cival War junkie I traveled with the author to sites I had already visited, such as Gettysburg and Bull Run. Reading about Shiloh I know that the battlefield is calling. I would recommend this book for anyone who is searching for an understanding of the Cival War and it's impact on today's society. It is a plea for not forgetting the horror of battle and a plea to not forget."
+19238,2,It's Oxo and it's good,All the Oxo stuff I've bought has worked fine. This has been no exception. I have a bunch of their spatulas and they get lots of use.
+19239,2,SUPERB!!!!!,"This was my first Susan Hill book and it made me an instant fan/fanatic. Cannot IMAGINE why it took me so long to discover this magically talented, brilliant author, but now that I have, I'm looking forward to many, many months of enjoyment and enlightenment as I wend my way through her entire body of work. Have now finished the Simon Serrailler series and have to say that this first one still stands out as the best for me. They were ALL, each and every one, truly exceptional, but ""Haunts"" was a treasure."
+19240,2,Great Service,The Bible was in Great condition! It arrived in only just a few days. I would use them again!
+19241,2,Surprisingly Effective,"I've been thinking about adding an EQ to my pedal board and decided for $30 bucks one of these would be good to experiment with. I've read some complaints about this being noisy but I haven't noticed any noise yet, I currently have it placed right after my dirt. (OD/Distortion/Fuzz) I'm still messing with it but it's definitely a keeper. My only complaint is that the input/output jacks are too close so theHosa IRG-600.5 Six 6 inch Guitar Patch Cables, Low-profile Right-angle to Samewon't fit, but that's really not a big deal."
+19242,2,This review is for the PBS release,"I have not seen the full DVD, but saw an abridged version on PBS last week. It was wonderful. The seven principals Mr. Andrews presents are not anything you haven't heard before--but they're presented in an impactful way so that you digest them differently and perhaps more thoroughly than you may have. His speaking style is humorous enough to be engaging and entertaining, but serious enough that you never lose the meat of the message. This DVD package promises a lot of extras that weren't on PBS special--I'm looking forward to it and highly recommend it!"
+19243,1,Disappointing,"I always enjoy Madeleine Wickham's writing but this was fell quite shirt of my expectations. It was dull, uninteresting and predictable."
+19244,2,Worth the Wait!,"I am so glad I waited until now to buy a Bread Maker. Having shopped many times on Amazon, I knew this was the right place to go to to buy one. But which one? I read many, many reviews for a lot of machines on Amazon, and I was thoroughly convinced that the SUNBEAM 5891 2-Pound Programmable Breadmaker was the one for me!! I used several different recipes for bread and each one turned out PERFECT! And it is SO EASY. 5***** I would highly recommend it."
+19245,1,PURE HOGWASH--waste of time and money,"If you are intending to read this as a novel, fine; otherwise, you are allowing yourself to be mislead by the author who is fast pushing out another moneymaker.This is pure fiction being touted as fact!"
+19246,2,The only cookbook I use,"I am sort of a collector of cookbooks, and I usually look more than I cook. This is the exception. Once I tried the recipe for Old-Fashioned Beef Stew, I was hooked. Since then I have tried quite a few more of the recipes in the book and have been very satisfied with the results. Some more of my favorites are Italian Pasta Salad, Amazing Chili, Best-Ever Macaroni and Cheese, and Taco Pitas. The recipes use ingredients that I can find even at my small, local grocery store. They are healthy, using a lot of fresh produce and in her notes she often suggests and encourages substitutions. Most importantly, this is food that even my husband will eat (and he's a picky eater)."
+19247,2,The Practice of the Presence of God,"This is an amazing and insightful book. The truth in these pages (though few) are great examples and reminders to Christians who want to grow with/in God and to be a shining example of Christ like action and attitude. With all the ""garbage"" available in the media - this little book is a great anchor."
+19248,1,Apparently EMPTY printer cartridges.,"Purchased two of these - arrived quickly; HOWEVER - after placing them both into 3 different new Lexmark printers, all 3 printers reported that the cartridges were EMPTY, and would not use them. Had no Lexmark markings on them (Supposedly ""remanufactured"", but apparently not correctly).Looked like a good deal on Amazon -claim to be ""Lexmark cartridges"" - but not worth the postage.DO NOT BUY THESE."
+19249,2,Quilting patterns,"This is a good basic book for quilting patterns. It doesn't go much beyond traditional patterns, but it is definitely a good resource to have. Recommended."
+19250,2,A Very Good Antenna,"I live in the Detroit, Michigan area where there are many HD stations. From my house most are 35-42 miles away and within 20 degrees (compass wise) of each other. I mounted the DB4 on my chimney, ran 50' of RG6 cable and get all local HD stations at a signal strength of 95% or better. This antenna does what it claims to do!"
+19251,2,Alpha Lipoic Acid,I have taken this supplement for 8 years and it is a good source of amino acid for younger looking skin.
+19252,1,well-written but so depressing,"I cannot even tell you how much i hated this book. Very depressing, and more a novel of sick obsession and loneliness than a ""great romantic love story."" I will say that it was very well-written, lots of detail and description, took a long time to read."
+19253,2,Hands-On Writing Tools for Young Writers,I enjoyed this book. It gave some very practical advice on creating a workshop environment for writing in the Intermediate grades. I have used the ideas (modified) with younger writers and they are equally as beneficial.I think this is a must have for anyone who would like to put some Umphhh back into writing in the classroom.
+19254,1,Clearly Politically Motivated,"As usual some italians never miss a chance to complain and bash about things they either don't have or don't understand. Clearly the author has been living in the stone age far too long. What does he mean with ""How many people have actually ever bought an airline ticket over the internet?"". Probably every single person I know! Or ""How many people have actually ever sent data over the internet?"". Practically the entire US population! His observations are not only shallow and over analyzed, most of them are just not accurate. Further, he fails to capture the true underlying issues embedded in the American way of life. The social and cultural issues that are ripping this country apart. A very poor analysis of non-issues that are, for the most part, just a result of his ignorance. His arrogance. Money NOT well spent I must say. P.S. I am an Italian living in the US."
+19255,2,"Newbomb and the ""Knights"" rock!","This movie portrays the 50's ""hop shop car clubs"" that were once prominent in that era. Tony Danza plays a high school age ""chop top"" car loving member of the ""Hollywood Knights"". He is faced with heart breaking decisions and tries to find himself. The other character Newbombe Turk is portrayed by Robert Wuhl. He is the ""new age"" leader of the club with hillarious antics and jokes. The ""Knights"" are the practical joke gods of their time. ""Hollywood Knights"" is both hillarious and heart touching."
+19256,1,Defective,My Weedeater was defective. The Trimmer head cable was not connected and the engine was not installed correctly. I had to take it to a repair station before I could use it.
+19257,1,Zzzz... zzzz ...,"I saw this on free prime video, so I can't get my money back. It cost me $0.00 and worth every cent. Man what a snoozer, a couple of chuckles early on, then it went from strange to lame and I fell asleep."
+19258,2,Review of Joseph Floyd Clymer's Steam Car Scrapbook,This is a very interesting book full of facts and pictures of old-time steam cars that belong to bygone days. It's a book that older generations and young that are mechanically inclined will truly enjoy.
+19259,1,misleading planning & time frames for a beginner,"unfortunately, the magical transformation of the author into a competitive athlete is a unique event, not one that readers will replicate easily (or ever!), especially following the plans inside.the author ignores the base building necessary to race the events. athletes need to train their musculoskeletal structure to take the abuse of workouts as much as they need to get their hearts up to speed. this is best done slowly and incrementally. i think if you have been a regular athlete for at least a year before using the plan in this book, you may be fine.if you are beginning in any of the three sports, i'd advise another book to show the real process of developing the appropriate base needed to compete without injury. Look up the titles by Joe Friel for more complete information on how to structure a training plan."
+19260,2,Lodge cast iron everywhere griddle,"Used this inside and out. Works great for those nicer steaks that don't cook well in a regular fryingpan and you don't want messed up in the winter inside cooking months.Fits perfect on the extra burner of our outside grill for veggies that I like to saute, no charmarks but just enough grill mark and a better even cooking. Love it. Clean up was abreeze, very important part for me.Only downfall it's quite heavy and needs extra care moving around."
+19261,2,"Not amazing, it just works","Do yourself a favor and just buy the dang thing. I went on a 2 month backpacking trip and, believe you me, I used this flashlight many a times while running through the woods/prairie/rocks to do my business. Definitely not the most powerful light out there, but I wasn't really looking for a floodlight. I wanted a dependable, durable, easy-to-carry, small flashlight with a bright-enough light and this did the job. I know other customers had problems with the build, but my flashlight never failed on me and I didn't even have to use the back-up batteries I took with me. Amazing? - nope, it is a flashlight after all. Good enough? - yup."
+19262,2,Rufus Creates Lush Soundscapes of Beauty,"Rufus Wainwright has released a dazzling debut album, full of lovely warm melodies framed in a landscape of gorgeous piano and orchestral arrangements. Wainwright takes his lyrics of romance and heartbreak, mixes them with drama like little operas and combines music that is part pop, part folk, and part showtune. Listen to the bittersweet opening track ""Foolish Love,"" or the delicate and seductively sweet ""Barcelona,"" Wainwright pours out his heart on both tracks. The song ""April Fools"" rocks along like an old Beatles song with a chorus that is very catchy. The beautiful ""In My Arms"" was produced by Pierre Marchand (Sarah McLachlan). With each listen the songs and his lived-in tenor voice really grow on you. Wainwright has created lush soundscapes of beauty that are tender and bittersweet but made with a lot of heart. This is a great debut effort, and I look forward to his future works."
+19263,2,Sequel to Mrs Mike,"I was born in Calgary,Alberta, Canada where the original book ""Mrs Mike"" basically started. I would recommend reading this book first in order to understand ""The Search for Joyful"". Mrs Mike is my altimate altime favorite book and this was a pleasent surprise as I didnt even know they had printed another book. Enjoy both books."
+19264,1,Deffective Disc,"While I enjoyed the content of this DVD, it ultimately turned out be defective. The disc froze and skipped in several places. It did this on both of my DVD players and in my computer. I returned it to Amazon.com and received a replacement. Unfortunately, the replacement did the same thing and in the same places. Maybe, when new stock arrives at Amazon, it will not contain these defects."
+19265,1,Draping for Fashion Design (Hardcover) 1973 Edition,"seems like that there are several versions of this book available. i bought the 1973 hardcover version, the one with white type on light green background on the cover. i don't know about newer versions of this book but this one is just painful. only every other step is confusingly illustrated (""figure 4-65/steps 3-7"") with MINIATURE illustrations. you constantly have to try to find the right one for the part you are reading. this might have worked in the 70s but it is not working today. frustrated i tried to find something else and bought ""the art of fashion draping, second edition, by connie amaden-crawford"" and i'm thrilled!! EVERY step is clearly illustrated with big illustrations which you will be able to see easily from a distance while working on the dress form!"
+19266,1,Same old stuff,"The first 5 in Stephanie Plum series are absolutely hilarious, then it starts going downhill. I really enjoyed first five books although Stephanie was getting on my nerves with her absolute terror of guns, but it was fun reading none the less. Then, I think, Janet Evanovich was starting to run out of the ideas. The Eleven on top is boring, boring, boring. Its more of the same old stuff-Stephanie is just as incompetent as she was in the first book, her love life is just as screwed up(choose Ranger already and be done with it), and her grandmother is just as nuts. Don't waste your money."
+19267,2,Good collection,I suppose you could obtain all of these articles separately but this book provides a nice introduction to several of man's most fundamental question via the thoughts of many different thinkers pulled into one place.
+19268,1,"wrong item sent; defective item, nothing to review it with","i did not get the right item i ordered. in addition to being the wrong item, the ring was bent and defective when it arrived. i contacted the seller through amazon and i got a full refund for the item within a matter of hours. amazon and the seller have both excellent customer service. but, i am disappointed that i did not get the ring i wanted/ordered. i checked on the website and it says, unavailable. pity!"
+19269,2,Hard to find a flaw,"V is a great movie. It has a compelling story with a pace that keeps you interested between really good action sequences. It's well-acted, with a particularly good performance from Stephen Rea, who plays a cop investigating the ""terrorist"" V. I'm not going to rehash the plot. I merely want to urge people to watch it for its entertainment value, and even its emphasis on democracy and freedom (even if this element was changed drastically in the story's movie adaption), and ignore those who claim that it glorifies terrorism. It does not. The government that V fights is a fascist dictatorship, one which Americans would be compelled to fight themselves if we are to believe in the principles established in the Declaration of Independence. He seems to take care in limiting his destruction to the regime that has taken power and, as you'll see in watching it, made him what he is (it is, afterall, a comic book movie). Watch the movie and enjoy it."
+19270,2,Few Albums Are This Great. This is My Generation's Chill Music,"It's A Beautiful Day produced beautiful music. White Bird and Hot Summer Day are superior, relaxing tunes. Then comes Wasted Union Blues with it's hot tempo. Hot and soulful. I liked IABD more than Jefferson Airplane because they seemed like the rare jewel. If you are looking for great, rare and unusual, buy this album and share it!"
+19271,1,Expected much better,"Considering the cast, I was sure this would be funny. Is wasn't. The story line had promise but all the actors seemed to struggle to be funny. It wasn't even a dark comedy, it wasn't any kind of comedy, just boring."
+19272,2,Funnier than you think!!,"I am a huge Jimmy Fallon fan. So when I saw this one in the shops I bought it (I guess it's one of those things where you feel you have to prove to yourself you're a real fan)I was expecting a couple of his songs and then that was it.But actually, his songs are great to listen to. There are about 5 songs. After that, Jimmy does improv acting and impressions to a live college croud. It is hillarious. Even if you are not a Jimmy fan, it is worth getting.He closes the CD with ""Hammer time"" where Jimmy has found you can sing pretty much any 80's song to ""Hammertime"" and goes right ahead to show it.So funny!!!"
+19273,2,Simply remarkable,"This is the best nature series that I've ever seen. The HD brings it to life, and the photography is just astounding. The series has concentrated on flora and fauna rarely seen and some never before filmed. This is a must for any nature lover!"
+19274,2,Teachers NEED to read this book... So do LD kids.,"As a smart kid with ADD, I BEG for all you teachers out there to read this book. I was always one of those exuberant, curious, confident kids when I was little... Until I entered kindergarten. Then I became one of the ""dumb kids."" I was eventually diagnosed with ADD and put on Ritalin, which did absolutely nothing for my self esteem. (""Oh great. I'm so stupid that I need DRUGS to do well in school?"") To be concise, the school system ate me alive because it simply wasn't set up very well for kids with different learning styles. It wasn't until I hit high school and took an IQ test (and scored 147, mind you) that I actually believed I was an intelligent human being. See? Your LD students aren't necessarily stupid. They're probably just gravely misunderstood. This book lets you see things through their eyes. Trust me. It helps."
+19275,2,excellant Sharon Sala book,This is a fast-paced mystery laced with Sharon Sala's usual strong characters. The love story complements the mystery very effectively -- I read it in one sitting and was sorry to see it end.
+19276,2,So AWESOME I couldn't believe my eyes!!!,"Fifteen years ago I had my caricature done at Tennessee's foremost theme park. I was so impressed with it that I used it on my business cards and letterhead (o, vain man that I am...). When I got this book in the mail and opened it, my jaw hit the floor. Mr. Parham isn't the master, he is the GRANDMASTER of caricature cartooning. I could not believe my eyes at how a few simple lines could so accurately capture the physical attributes and character of a person. I am a rank amateur with a desire to learn caricature cartooning and this book is the very best I have EVER seen. It is not written to be over anyone's head and whether you have never picked up a pencil before or been drawing caricatures for thirty years, you will learn much from this insightful training guide. This book is off the chart - a perfect ""ten"" on the scale of one to five stars."
+19277,2,Very cool movie,"I loved this movie. It deals with controversial metaphysical concepts in a light but respectful way. All very real as well, tho the reality setting may not be the same reality you normally inhabit. The performances are marvelous. Highly recommended."
+19278,1,just ok,"like almost everything Ben Stiller does whom I find vastly overrated this film never packs much laughs and just is kinda there on a whole. the history lesson element is alright in places,but you are also stuck with a whole lot of story and no real story line making any sense. I watched this film recently and just kinda thought it was there. could have been more to it. it tried a whole lot more than it needed. way too much happening all at once."
+19279,2,The BEST air Purifier for the money!,Great value per square footage & quiet. Perfect for smaller rooms.
+19280,1,Not the case pictured,"I bought this case in fall 2003. When I lost it, I ordered another. The version they sent has a metal snap that always pops loose instead of the wide velcro strip. The case they sent has a plastic and metal snap hook that I had to cut off when I got it.Not what I ordered Adorama!"
+19281,2,Not bad,"These are good, but i prefer the seamless ones. I feel the seamless ones have a better grip on the wire"
+19282,1,Former Marine,"I read about the author's ""award-winning"" documentaries, but throughout the entire book I bristled every time the word Marine was NOT capitalized, as it should be. We are proud of our title, and it is always capitalized, had this ""documentarian"" done some digging, and it would not have taken much, he would have realized his mistake.Also, agree with other reviews regarding the skipping around, this makes it difficult to follow at times. Reading about a battle which was fought in the ""fog of war"" does not mean I want to read about it while the fog is still present."
+19283,2,Fun at a good price,My son received this for his 5th birthday. He has played with it on and off for almost a year. It is very easy to put together and seems to stand up to normal playing. The pulley with the attachable bucket seems to be the biggest hit. We have actually taken the leaves off so that you can play on the top floor better. The branches have wire in them so you can shape them some what to how you want it but for him they were still in the way. Great comparable to the much higher priced one and that one has also been discontinued. I would definately recommend!!
+19284,1,"worst ""movie"" I ever saw","This is a silly, high-school-level comedy that is dishonestly advertised as something serious instead. Much of the time you will see the corny actor just walking about. Maybe in a field, maybe among trees, maybe drinking beer, etc. He reads his lines like the guy who stands up to read whatever the teacher tells him to read and doesn't care at all about doing it. The audience is expected to be duped into believing the nonsense is deep and artistic by the use of angle-shots and people sitting on benches wearing masks and disconnected scenes that have no thread of continuity and other transparent such. I've seen a lot of movies but this is the worst I've ever seen. I actually fast-forwarded it to see if there was any interesting action ahead. I never had the desire to do such a thing before. What an amateurish effort."
+19285,1,Tune Transfer didn't work for me,"I ordered this after my hard drive crashed, it did NOT work for my daughters Ipod Nano, I sent it back and got Copypod instead and it worked!"
+19286,1,"Keeps water out, but hurts my nose","This product was not designed for people with large noses. I wouldn't say my nose is enormous, but it is larger than average. Even after adjusting it the widest fitting, the plastic strip cuts into the bridge of my nose, which causes minor discomfort and leaves a mark. I've never experienced this problem before with other goggles."
+19287,1,JunkDS,Accruate NOT!!! The adjustable stop is nice but try to set an angle. The shot-pin type angle setting has to much slop in it. I still have to make a test cut or three and adjust the angle accordingly...
+19288,2,A classic for all Christians!,This book has the time tested truth that only someone that has walked closely with the Lord could know. You will read this book for the rest of your life!
+19289,2,re-release this film,I WROTE A REVIEW ABOUT THIS FILM .......AND I WOULD LIKE TO UNDERSTAND WHY IT 'S OUT OF PRINT .......PEOPLE OUT THERE WRITE CALL AND SCREAM OUT LOUD TO HAVE THIS WONDERFUL SUBURBAN SAGA RE-RELEASE......
+19290,2,Funny Thing,This item when originaly shipped was a 1 gb disk in a 2 gb package. SO just be weary of the packaging. Other than that it is worth the price and works great!
+19291,1,This movie lacked a lot of things.,I am a big fan of anime. I thought it was going to be Ninja Scroll 2. It even says it on the back. What a joke it discraces anime. I wasted a good twenty bucks on this. IT IS NOT THE SEQUEL TO NINJA SCROLL!!! DO NOT BUT THIS MOVIE.
+19292,1,Very Small!,"This shirt runs extremely small. I ended up giving my size large shirt to my daughter who wears XS in tops. So, beware!"
+19293,2,Great bearings!,Great bearings for the price. Still a little high when you first buy them but once you get them you realize just how amazing they truly are. I had Bones Reds and when I put these on my board went faster and stayed moving for twice as long. I coast up hills when my friends have to kick the whole way up.
+19294,1,Please do NOT buy this product!,This is such a dangerous product! My small dog has always been so full of life and energy. After putting this product on a few days ago she has barely moved and worse yet suffered a seizure! Crazy. If you love your pet stay far away from Hartz products.
+19295,2,SoCal gang life at its purest,"This movie is a must see for anyone who enjoys genuine, true-to-life films. This film takes audiences to a world most of them would never see otherwise. I was born and raised in the streets of Long Beach and Los Angeles and was forced to experience in actuality the scenarios acted out in the film. I can attest to every scene in the film as being accurate in their portrayals of gang culture. I watched Boyz in the Hood, South Central, Colors, Menace to Society, Baby Boy and many other films portraying gang life in LA county, but all were more about sticking to the story line than about capturing the essense of the subject(s). If you like big budget actions films with gang members being shown as stunt men fliping over cars while shooting an assault rifle, then this film will not tickle your tastes. But if you want a quick lesson on true gang life with no sugar on top, Gang Tapes does the job."
+19296,2,Not just Seven,"It's not just about Seven. It has intergalatic consipracy, telepathic aliens, corruption in government, and lots of Ravens.While Seven of nine plays a pivitol role in this book, it does have a full-fledge intriguing storyline. It has some slow parts and some cliche plot points but builds to a nice action packed climactic end.If you're a Seven fan suffering from withdrawl, this book won't disappoint."
+19297,2,Very fast EXCEPTIONAL read!!!!,"Angels, repentense, and the utimate judgement collide is this winner from Jason Brannon ! When survivors from the end of the world are confronted with their own weaknesses, doubts and an Angel gone bad, what will the ultimate outcome be?Jason shows extreme promise in this short epic. Love his writing style and my only wish was that this book was 300 pages :) But though this book is a short read, it is mighty! Download it now and read it tonight, you will thank me!As with ALL Permuted Press books, this one follows their standard practice of only providing us with the BEST books in the genre!!! So while you order or download this book, get a few more from PP and then you can thank me by posting your own reviews. Happy reading :)"
+19298,2,More Please!,"I want more! I downloaded this gem from listening to one song and now want more! Lotta funk mixed in with a great rock sound that sort of has semblance to Jack White and the Raconteurs. I ranked this a 4, but would give 4.5 if they allowed. Enjoy & play loud!"
+19299,2,no need to press button to charge at default,"I am very happy with this charger, but I am writing to note one thing that some people may miss: once you push in a battery, in 20 seconds or so the charger will automatically start charging at 1000mA, with no button push whatsoever. This is how I use my charger daily with energizer 2500mAh, which happens to give a good 2.5:1 charging ratio."
+19300,2,Very informative book -- son and I both love it!,"I bought this book for my five-year-old son for Christmas (we have a guinea pig). I was surprised by how much information was presented -- but never in a dry or dull way. My son was engaged with the book and happily read it cover to cover, with a bit of help on words like ""Abyssinian.""Not only is there information in the book that would be helpful to first-time (or first time in a long time) guinea pig owners, but it is filled with neat facts and history on the animal. I learned a few things myself!I also appreciated that the author did not shy away from mentioning that guinea pigs don't usually live as long as other pets might. He presented the information gently, and with the same conversational tone the rest of the book had...by the end, it felt like we were friends, bound by our common interest in this wonderful pet. An excellent read for kids and their parents too!"
+19301,1,Disaster Movie (Fullscreen),"Will, Lisa, and two of their friends attempt to flee man-made and natural disasters and encounter Batman, Hancock, The Hulk, Indiana Jones, Hannah Montana, Michael Jackson, Beowulf, the Love Guru, Iron Man, rabid chipmunks amongst others in their seemingly vain efforts to seek help and shelter from unknown threats. Unfortunately there is not a number low enough to rate this. There is absolutely no reasonable explanation for making this movie. Don't see this movie. Don't spend any money on it."
+19302,2,Excellent sealed cans,"I'll be honest here, the fit was a little tighter than I am used to and took me a couple of weeks to get used to. I was very impressed by the amount of noice they block out, even when no music is being played. I feel I am listening to a very clean version of the music with little outside disturbances and noise.The long cord, high quality jack adapter, and adjustability of the head phones are among the perks that add to the enjoyment of the product.The (only) downside was the plastic head band which develops cracks and then falls apart. Mine lasted 2 years and 4 months before I started to notice cracking and then a matter of months before parts started to fall off.I most likely will purchase another pair as I had over two great years and have not found their equal in a sealed can. But if they would simply make the band of spring steel, I'd pay double for a then perfect set of sealed cans!"
+19303,1,Homotopy category of akashic bundles: delusions and applications,"The FCC has officially announced plans to regulate public transmissions over the Akashic field.Also mentioned was the possibility of relaxing their restriction of time-invariance, officially imposed upon physical laws by Western powers since the time of Galileo. Checks for repeatability of experimental results may cease as early as this July, although officials emphasized that talks are just beginning and a final date has not been set.Sounds like your morning commute might get a lot more interesting!"
+19304,2,Excellent book for speech development!,"Yes, it is exhausting as an adult to have to be so repetitive, however, children find rhymes and repitition comforting and entertaining; aside from that, rhymes and repitition are excellent tools for speech development and for encouraging speech-delayed children to finish the phrases and repeat the sounds/words. My son is speech-delayed and we have three of these books becaue as tedious as it is for me to sing these books to him, they hold his interest, and they have been wonderful tools for us. I would recommend these to everyone, but especially to parents of speech-delayed children!! We also love We All Go Traveling By and Driving My Tractor from the same publisher."
+19305,2,They're back...and YOU KNOW THIS!!,"Finally. It's about time that we got the 3rd Storee album everyone's been waiting for. This is one of the best album I've had the pleasure of hearing. Their first single ""Get With Me"" topped the charts. The album is full of solid hits. From the sad love of ""I'm SOrry"", to the upbeat, club-feeling of ""Clap Your Hands"". There's got to be a song on here that you will love, if not all of them. SO if you don't have this album yet, go buy it!!"
+19306,2,Garmin Portable Friction Mount,"Just what I needed. I have another brand that was round and the USB cable that plugs into my Garmin 765T would hit edge of it. With this friction mount, the included adapter, allows the Garmin to be high enough so that the unit can be tilted down to where I want it without hitting this plus-shaped mount. In this mount, the Garmin stays in place when going around sharp curves and during sudden stops. I use the friction mount in a 2005 Honda CRV and a 2005 Ford F-150. No problems. Easily tucks away out of sight from thieves that look for the ""ring"" on the windshield or the ""permanent"" dash mount disk."
+19307,1,"Not artistic, not proffecional.","This book is nice, but not artistic. There is nothing about composition. There is even nothing about freehand drawing! And the blending! Blending your drawing is the same thing as blurring your drawing. It kills all emotion of the stroke! If you ever want to become the proffecional at drawing, dont take this book. Don't spend your money!"
+19308,1,The Opposite of Good Taste,"Do not get me wrong, I think that Christina Ricci is a great actress. But this movie, it s*cked. The whole point of it was for the main character to realize love's true worth? Give me a break! The beginning was going so tasty. But it got drab and stupid after Ricci and the once gay, now heterosexual, ex-lover of her step bro, run away. This guy had to be the dumbest person I have ever seen in movie history. Even Forest has a leg up on this guy. Then at the end he finally realizes that he's still gay!! Duh! This movie was given way too many props. Please save yourself from disappointment, and regret."
+19309,2,Amazing,"Amazing. Very sexy and exciting but not explicit and gratuitous. We meet Flora as a young lonely girl of ten on vacation with her selfish, neglectful parents. We follow her life as she matures to a beautiful woman. Three men love her but which does she love and which one will she choose. This is one book hard to put down."
+19310,2,Amazing concert !,"I've assisted to the Buenos Aires gig on august 1st. 2000 of this just tour. Let me tell you they performed wonderful. The setlist was perfectly chosen, including songs from his last release Engines Of Creations as well as beloved classics like Summer song or Surfing With The Alien. Bass player Stuart Hamm had his own show in a bass solo to remember for years. Joe's right arm in high is already an icon for itself.Regarding this double DVD edition, it is full of features, including backstage scenes, an interview with Joe, a synopsis of his discography and two tracks with multi-angle camera.Highly recommendable."
+19311,1,"Great concept, Just not good enough","I bought this for my daughter's room because she didnt' have a phone jack and I thought it clevor to have a wireless one since kids change their rooms around all the time. We were pretty excited about the concept, however, it doesn't work well at all. It's a bunch of static. Can hear the other person, but definitely something wrong with the Jack. I wouldn't recommend it nor spend that much on it. We didn't return it because what a hassle to return and pay for shipping again and my daughter was just excited to have the phone working."
+19312,1,"Content is interesting, but there are a lot of problems with this book","If you are the type that gets annoyed by bad editing, you probably won't be able to read this book. Flat out, this has got to be the most poorly edited book I have ever seen - if you can even say that it was edited at all. One sentence early on started with ""12"". Come on! Who does that? It's brutal in terms of typos, gramatical errors, and just poor definition.Editing (or the lack thereof) aside, the content is fairly interesting. The book's structure leaves a bit to be desired, but by the time you get to the end you have a good idea of what the author is trying to convey. The interviews at the end are quite interesting.Whether some of the content is believable is another story. The author says things like ""it's been proven"" or ""it is fact that.."" in regard to a few things which are still very much in debate and/or have been debunked entirely. That definitely introduces a credibility problem."
+19313,1,EGAD,Well after watching this movie..i know why the hudson brothers never won any oscars....Well at least mark hudson did some decent record producing..Bill spawned kate hudson...the acting horrible..lighting was shabby..have to be a REALLLLL big hudson brother fan to enjoy this
+19314,2,Nice to get your mind of things...,"The book is entertaining. it's not as hilarious as some critics said it would be but if you are looking for a fun and light story to get your mind of things then this is the book...it did not keep me awake until the early hours of the morning but I enjoyed reading it. It is well written, interesting characters, good pace of the story. Get under the duvet and enjoy this book ! (and don't forget the box of chocolates!...)"
+19315,1,low battery life with radio,"I purchased this battery to go with my new V28 Milwaukee worksite radio. I was expecting this battery to power my radio (only) for at least 20 hrs before needing to be recharged. WRONG !!!! After 8 hours, the battery is dead. Very disappointed ...."
+19316,1,Surprise,"I was expecting a book, not a catalog. I didn't find this useful. That said, it's a very beautiful publication."
+19317,2,"Saki, Sex & Folklore with a side of ex-patriotism.","""It has been reported that Tanuki fell from the sky using his scrotum as a parachute,"" and so starts the tale of the Saki drenched antics of the mythologized Tanuki, which leads the reader on a an amusing adventure. Knock, knock? Who's there? Vietnam Vets who opt to stay in Lao's with a penchant for philosophy, cultivating and dispersing opiates. Knock, knock? Who's there? Three generations of asian woman who um...carry on a magical tradition of sorts..let's say they bloom. Robbins is a master of language and storytelling. The reader goes back and forth from Laos to Seattle. You get a dash of politics, mythology, some 9-11 and the circus, what more could you ask for? It's a quick read and thoroughly enjoyable."
+19318,1,sigh...,"Hilary is basically speaking the words in this cd. kinda sad, huh? I was very disappointed after listening to this cd. I thought it would be a lot better."
+19319,1,Opaque and Dreadful Prose,"Difficult to read this book. Many books on Buddhism are written in this odd, flowery manner. If you don't already read other books on Buddhism, you may find it disorienting."
+19320,1,DO NOT BUY THIS,"I have a paper to write for an African American art class at school. The topic? Senga Nengudi. This article? Completely useless. Everything found in this ""article"" is available elsewhere for free. I got ripped off, and am writing this review only to prevent you from being suckered into handing over nine dollars and ninety-five cents."
+19321,2,A true love story,"This documentary re-affirms why I love this game so much. I'm a white male who speaks English and VERY broken Spanish (I basically only know soccer terms) but I've played with people speaking all different languages before, and this film accurately depicts how soccer (and sports in general) is the one true universal language that can build relationships between people that would otherwise never get to know each other. This is a must see for anyone, not just those who love soccer."
+19322,2,Lots of creative energy from Oasis during this time,"Looking back, ""Stand By Me"" was a puzzling choice as a single from the mightyBe Here NowCD, which featured many other songs that were better. ""Stand by Me"" is catchy, if a bit monotonous, but the chorus is respectable and the song was written by Oasis during the band's height.For my money, ""(I Got) The Fever"" and ""My Sister Lover"" have much more edge and get-up. Each song is vintage Oasis: Liam sounds great on vocals, the drums are subtle and Noel is free to go wild with a momentary guitar solo that swaggers -- like usual. My favorite on this CD single is ""My Sister Lover,"" which is easily A-side material with bizarre lyrics to boot."
+19323,1,Smaller than they appear,"For very light duty applications or apparel , this product is ok. However, about 10% were damaged and bent rendering them limited usefulness. The useful opening is barely 5/32 of an inch and the shoulder would easily pull through most fabric with little force. Definitely a decoration and very light duty low quality product."
+19324,1,Not a Good Gift...,"I bought this as a gift for a floutist friend. Unfortunately, I think they hated it, although she does enjoy playing the flute. I wouldn't buy it for a friend again, but maybe myself."
+19325,2,DeNiro shines in unlikely role in historical film,"This is a highly enjoyable epic film. DeNiro is his usual captivating self only this time instead of being an Italian gangster or wise guy in the 20th century, his character lives in 18th century South America.I enjoyed this film because I am a DeNiro fan and I enjoy his style of acting. It was pleasing to see him attempt a different type of role.If you're a DeNiro fan, check this one out"
+19326,1,"Should've told one story, not two","Very dissapointing. The premise, of creating a neural net that can pass a comprehensive English exam, is very clever, but the characters are little pieces of glib chatter, occasionally amusing, more often smarmy and annoying, and that love story, cold as ice. No one in this novel would be caught dead at the scene of an emotion. Clearly Powers is a smart guy, but the whole thing feels like a therapy-diary. File under ""Coulda been a contenda."""
+19327,2,Great pocket guide,"This is an outstanding pocket-sized guide for any trip to London. It fits in the back pocket of my jeans, and I literally never left the hotel room without it during my stay in London. Includes the all-important map of the tube, and a zoomed in map on each page with plenty of detail. Nice listing of all the museums, parks, shopping and places of historical significance. An absolute must if you're going to London!"
+19328,2,Creepy!!,"The scariest part of this film is not the zombies eating people, it is not the fact that these horrible actors and actresses were given jobs, it is not the eerie, yet soothing, jacuzzi jazz soundtrack. It is the ""child"" played by 27 year-old Peter Bark. He's old, he wears a Marv Albert rug, and he's completely scary without trying to be. He runs like a girl and he wears his pants up to his armpits. Did I mention he has an unnatural love for his mother? Watch this movie, the vision of this ""boy"" will haunt you for the rest of your life."
+19329,2,WHAT!!!,"This was FAN TAS TIC, it brings back memories of house parties, jamming til the early morn'. My friends and family all want to borrow the CD's, I suggested they buy their own because it is an investment they won't regret. Loving and listening to it 24/7."
+19330,2,excellent starting book to learn with!,"This is an excellent resource for learning concrete sculpture! Start with this one, then get her other book, ""Creative Concrete Ornaments for the Garden: Making pots, birdbaths..."" for more advanced projects that reinforce your skill leves."
+19331,2,perfect fit for m&p15-22,bought this grip after seeing a picture of it and never reading anything other than reviews of hogue grips. Best purchase I've made so far for my 15-22 and fits perfectly with no gaps. Oversized just enough to make it more comfortable than the stock grip. My brother in law liked it so much he bought two of them the following week. It's got just enough tack to keep your hands on the grip but still easily let go.
+19332,2,It works!,"It is supposed to be a good size for small dogs, but it seemed a little bit big and bulky by the larynx of our chihuahua mix. Nevertheless, it does work. Our dog does not make any noise when she is wearing it. She is smart and knows that when she is wearing her collar, she'd better not bark. Once in a while, she forgets, and we will hear her yelp because she got zapped. But she does not look psychologically affected by it, nor does she associate the collar with her shocks that she would show a dislike for it. She wears it only outside where every little noise gets her barking. Indoors, we don't mind her barking as she is our burglar alarm and we can directly train her to stop, as opposed to outdoors where we would have to chase her around to get her to stop. So this collar is good for her."
+19333,2,A wonderful addition to ANY voice practice!,"As a singer, voice teacher and Feldenkrais Teacher, myself, this book has been indispensable. The beauty of the book is that the lessons are short, clear, accessible and touch on all of the movement basics that support free, easy and powerful singing without trying to ""teach singing."" These lessons will enhance ANY singing practice, technique or approach!Enjoy!Robert Sussuma"
+19334,2,Pushed for time buy this one,"I had read a good number of books on so called ""Sacred Sex"" and wanted to see what the 20/21st sexexperts had to say on the subject. What I found was a pleasant surprise.The book is more than about technique although there is plenty of that, it goes into what the sexes truly want if only they were able to communicate effectively.The author is to be congratulated, unlike a great deal of other books on the subject, it is short and to the point.This is no definitive guide by any means but truly helpful."
+19335,1,juvenile & shallow,"i was excited to read this book. I would only advise fans of Pam to NOT read this ""Judy Blumeseque"" psuedobiography. I expected a bit more. Try Jenna Jameson's book instead."
+19336,1,Do not get for a Macintosh unless you are desperate,"Version 7.1.3b4Bounceback was highly recommended a few years ago in article in MacWorld and/or MacUser. I bought it based on that recommendation. I have sucessfuly used it to back up my computer, so it is not a complete waste of money. It is exceptionally buggy. The interface is exceptionally non-intuitive. The interface resembles nothing like a typical Macintosh interface. The program causes crashes and freezes. It is hard to know if a backup was completely successful. Probably some of the interface difficulties come from translation form a foreigh language into non-standard English. The upgrade for Macintosh appears to lag the upgrade for PCs by many months. I have used it with a variety of computers and OS configurations 10.3-10.5.If you have no other back-up solution, this porgram can be used successfully by a persistent watchful Macintosh-proficient user."
+19337,1,DO NOT buy THIS edition!!!,"DO NOT, repeat DO NOT buy THIS edition. Incredibly, it does not include the ""Bad Faith"" chapter, the MOST FAMOUS chapter in the whole book. What were the publishers thinking? Look for the Washington Square paperback with the white cover or a hardcover copy."
+19338,2,Delightful Christmas Story,"One of the best Christmas stories. Charming and timeless. I've been giving it as a gift, first to my son and then to children of friends and family."
+19339,1,Another bad HD transfer,"I like Alex Proyas-the director- very much and this one is one of my favorite movie.I already had a DVD and when this Bluray came out, I decided to replace.The result is a a disaster.The image is not better then the DVD. Maybe even worse.The sound is 5.1 HD but couldn't feel any difference. The base sound was so so. The channel was not divided well.I really wish to have my money back."
+19340,1,"Decent show, but why no full season?","Please do not buy this DVD! I hate the way producion/marketing executives try to milk consumers for every cent by putting out several editions/partial collections of a ""season"" and then releasing the complete season a year later. Don't encourage this kind of marketing! Consumers don't want to pay [what usually amounts to] double price for something, but that is just what happens when people buy these seasons, broken up into several, single-disc releases. We want complete season releases! Night-time drama shows are not broken down into several separate releases. Why do this with shows for children? Do they think we're stupid? Don't prove them right by buying this SINGLE DVD!Yes, this show is pretty good. It is well-written, has good animation, and the voice acting is also well-done. Still, when it's offered in such a small dose for such a high price, the whole thing just stinks. Get it right WB!"
+19341,1,Great Potential but Very Flawed,"After using products from ULead, Sonic, Microsoft (MovieMaker 2), and now Pinnacle (Studio 8 with updated patches) I have come to the conclusion that there are no options for affordable and reliable DV editing at this point. Studio 8 is the best in terms of features, but is unpredictably buggy (especially at the rendering and burning stages). I have completed ~10 full DVD projects to date, and have experienced every type of bug: audio drift, rendering freeze, compiling freeze, etc. For very simple projects, you may have a successful final burned DVD 75% of the time. Not good enough.If you have the money and are looking for a reliable product, I would suggest looking at Premiere (although I don't have experience with it). If you have an even higher budget, don't waste your time here - look at Avid DVExpress.As a video amateur, I'm still waiting for a consistently stable program for DV editing and DVD authoring."

+19343,2,Asian Blossoms,I really like this CD.I do Reflexology and Reikiand find the music very suitable for a relaxingtype of atmosphere.
+19344,1,Quality could be better,It was dark and cloudy at times. Not the greatest buy. I am very disappointed. Can I return for a refund?
+19345,1,Very strange.,This book included ideas such as everyone taking their baths in a wading pool outside to save on water and electricity! It also had many ideas on how to spend a lot of money on vitamins and bread mixers and wheat grinders. Great if you really like to do those things though not exactly some- thing that would simplify life for a busy mom!
+19346,2,Poison 'n Roll,"Man was I suprised when I got this CD. It rocks, and yes it may be their best album ever, sorry Cece. If you ever liked this band, get this now! I can not listen to it enough, the best songs on the cd (as if there were any bad ones) are ' Best Thing You Ever Had' ' Baby Gets Around A Bit' ' Sexual Thing' ' That's The Way I Like It' 'Tragically Unhip'........get this now and CRANK IT!"
+19347,2,Great purchase,"This Hai flat iron was the best price on the web and shipping was fast as promised. Because the price was so low I was afraid at first it might be a knock-off, but it wasn't. It works perfectly and I am very happy with it."
+19348,2,Outstanding,"What a carefully constructed work of love. The author's portrayal of the anarchist, socialist and labor movements in Chicago is riveting. I empathized with the desperation of the activists even as I disagreed with their rhetoric at times. Lucy & Albert Parsons and August Spies appeared to be absolutely dedicated to labor and civil rights activism. What a far-reaching legacy this event left behind."
+19349,1,elastic broke,"While this is super soft, the elastic broke all the way around the bottom after one wash. my daughter's new favorite hobby whenever this cover is on is to pull it off and chew on it."
+19350,2,"Review of book,""Whoever you Are"".","I bought this lovely book for my""adopted"" African family. I met the father, Jiya-Jiya, as he was a waiter in my Hotel in Cape town, when I went there last July for a holiday. I have been sending him money each month, and he was able to bring his wife,{whom he hadnt seen in 3 years,} to cape Town. last Xmas, thanks to the extra cash, he managed to send his wife back to visit their 3 kids, who are in the care of the Grandma in Zimbabwe. The wife took this book, along with several others I sent for the kids, she was able to spend Xmas with her kids, and they loved all the books, esp. this one, which is about children of all races, religions, and colours. So, a big Thank you, this book will , Im sure help in a small way to bridge the huge gulf between black and white, rich and poor! Maia Russell."
+19351,1,Tabs Terrible,"The tabs these labels have to 'make application easier' are terrible. They do not come off easily and end up leaving torn places on the labels. After this batch, I'll buy something else!"
+19352,1,Hilarious,"This is honestly one of the funniest books ever written. Although Amazon has connected this book to children, I wouldn't think that a child is sophisticated enough to appreciate the hilarity herein. The author takes a strong tongue-in-cheek attitude as he continually presents stories of fantasy as truth.Had to give it only one star as it's defiantly misrepresented as a children's book. I will amend my review once this is placed in a fictional humor category instead."
+19353,2,The Book of Saints,"This book arrived in a timely manner and was in excellent condition. It is a very small hardback book, measuring approximately 7 inches x 4.5 inches. I expected a larger book although the Amazon description does feature the dimensions. The cover is not as featured on Amazon so that was a bit confusing. I expected the cream-colored cover as shown. It's not the same design. The book cover is a maroon/purple color and does not feature the same saints on the cover. The saints featured on the cover are not identified . . ."
+19354,2,Great,"These rods fir and worked great. They threaded into each other and the brush perfectly. Remember these have a 1/4"" pipe thread."
+19355,2,Don't give up during the first few chapters. Keep reading!,I liked this book overall. I almost quit reading it after the first few chapters. I thought that if it is not going to be a better read than this why should I bother. But it definetly gets better. The chapters regarding the spy within the ranks at MicroGlobe One was really good. An edge of your seat mystery wondering the identity of the spy. Read it!!!
+19356,2,Our 20-month twins and 5 y/o niece all loved this set!,"We bought one of these a few weeks ago in preparation for our beach vacation. We let our 20-month-old twins play with it outside and in the bathtub to see how they liked it, and they both loved it! The rake isn't safe for that age so we took it out of circulation, but the boys liked the other pieces so much they would fight over certain ones, so we ordered a second set. It got plenty of use on our beach vacation last week, and our 5-year-old niece really enjoyed playing with them, too. They are small but I liked that they didn't take up a lot of space and for toddlers, they were plenty big enough."
+19357,1,no story and childish,"I apologize to the beatles fans, I said no story in this film and the film had no sense at all. The beatles were a good band but they couldn't act in the film.They never become a huge film star! the whole story in the film is like a story book children and absolutely childish, though bonus with some nice songs too.... need I say more?"
+19358,1,"Nice idea, but it doesn't work","I tried it for two weeks, needed to reapply every day and still it didn't work. Waste of money."
+19359,2,MigraSolve-Petadolex,I started buying this based upon the suggestion of my neurologist. I have tried several other natural products to decrease the frequency of my migraines. This item is the first to really have had any impact on them. They are somewhat less severe and frequent as well. Not a cure but definitely part of the overall treatment package.
+19360,1,Not worth the money,"Grim Tuesday was just a remake of Mister Monday. The whole plot is the same- Arthur must find his way into the House and navigate his way to Tuesday's key. The story moved very slowly and did not hold my interest well because I was not particularly interested in any of the characters. Arthur has no special abilities that would make me like his character. He is just a boring, normal boy who follows orders from the Atlas. Suzy Blue is an annoying character with very little appeal, and all of the members of the House are like robots with no real impact on the novel. I couldn't finish the book because of the monotony and I don't recommend it to anyone who likes a fast-paced book."
+19361,2,Best incontinence product for men and women,"I have used this style of pad for both my mother and father for over 10 years. They fit up snugly, almost like mens supporter and are much cooler in hot weather as they don't have paper and plastic on the sides. The waist band is very stretchy. My dad weighed about 250 and my mom only weighs 120 and they fit both of them. Sometimes when we are out for a long day I use one of these close to the body and then a second underwear style pad over. When I go to change them I can remove the inside one without taking all of their clothes off in the bathroom. My dad couldn't use the kinds with buttons as his fingers were to big. Mom can't because she is legally blind and can't also can't figure them out. These just easily slip on. If you are still active this is the best product!"
+19362,1,they were chocolate coated turned white,i was so upset i used to be able to order these as a super saver but when i order the box i opened it and all bars have turned white and broke apart It must have been from an old stock. They used to be my favorite so dissappointed. dolthink thin brownie
+19363,2,I really like this leash,"This harness and leash is very secure, it's a little bit of a hassle getting it off but it's worth it for the security of your pet."
+19364,1,"ME, ME, ME","You can plod through this bloated tome or just read a summary. I'd suggest a summary. And then go ahead and read some Nietzsche instead. Now he was a writer! I personally don't find what is so interesting about Ayn Rand and her ideas. They are not new. And philosophers pay her no attention. Why is that? *Sometimes* the majority is right. Sorry, but we could do without a dead ultra-right, megalomaniacal, pill head, Russian immigrant telling us how to live our lives. Who doesn't think you should live your own life and that it be of your own design just as a matter of principle? How American. And how ironic this Russian woman achieved _cult-like_ status telling Americans they should be more selfish, and not follow others, etc. I have the impression Vladimir Putin is good example of her type of man."
+19365,2,Good taps for beginners,"I love the style of the shoe, I just wish the tap sounds were a little brighter. They work perfectly for me. Its ""the"" shoe for beginners."
+19366,2,Good once you get past the aerobics,"The curse of both this tape and its companion, FIRM Strength, is that some really good weightlifting is paired with some really lame aerobics--cha-cha-cha and all that. However, I usually mute it and run in place or do jumping jacks during those segments, so the entire workout isn't ruined."
+19367,1,Absolute junk,"This camcorder stopped working after 5 months with the ""lens cap"" error message. JVC customer service was abolutely no help. Never buy a JVC product. Get a Sony or Canon. They at least have some usefule kind of customer service."
+19368,1,Defective unit shipped,"Daisy was received with missing contacts in the battery compartment. They didn't just fall out, they were gone. I can't believe they (ToysRus) would ship such an obviously defective unit. Now it is out of stock and no replacement available. A real christmas dud."
+19369,2,Jimi Live At The Fillmore East New Years Eve1969-70,"Excellent Combination of Jimi Hendrix and his new trio which consisted of Billy Cox on Bass, and Buddy Miles on Drums. It features some material that Hendrix was working at the time. This is a must if you are a Hendrix fan because you will a nice example of Jimi Hendrix sounded like when he played live."
+19370,2,Works very well,This is a very simple yet solid little MP3 player. The software installation worked fine on the first try on a Win XP system. I was listening to music within 5 minutes. It's very light and fits easily in my pocket. The included ear-buds are good quality - better than I expected. It has the standard random and repeat features that a CD player might have. My only complaints are minor: It's easy to accidentally turn the unit on while it's in your pocket which wastes batteries. And it would be nice to have more control over the equalizer (it has a few pre-sets included). Overall I'm happy with it.
+19371,1,Would give a lower score if I could,"Absolute GARBAGE! Not only do you need 4 to remove the radio and they only send 2 but the 2 they sent are now stuck in my dash and cannot be removed until I get 2 more tools. Will be buying them locally. This is likely my last purchase from Amazon. Customer service was unhelpful to say the least. Their insistence is on the fact that only 2 are shown in the picture. Ok, they got me for the $10.53 but they have lost my business for life."
+19372,1,"We all know it's not good, but what IS this stuff?","It is difficult to review this as I am unsure if it was intended to be music. Assuming it was, here we go:I could have made this record. Literally. At least twenty of the little sound effects used here can be found on my Casio keyboard (the one you can carry around your house that has about 30 or forty keys) that I've had since I was eight as well as a whistle that I once paid 25 tickets for at Chuck E Cheese. I am also capable of talking in a bubbly throat voice as well as creating names such as 'christie cornpop' or whatever it is. If this was meant to be an experimental record, then it's just stupid. If it's meant to be listened to whilst intoxicated, then it's perfect. If it's meant to be a joke, then the people who made this record might be able to redeem themselves from musical pseudo-pretentiousness and absolute stupidity."
+19373,1,Disappointed,"I was debating whether to get the Crossman Phantom or the Ruger Blackhawks. I started by choosing the former. Delivery was quick but I was disappointed to find the gun felt like a bit of a toy - much like a lower power version I had as a kid. Worst of all, the front sight was on crooked and the gun was basically impossible to aim. I called Amazon and they sent me a UPS label to return the gun and gave me a full refund - the most impressive aspect of the whole transaction. I bought the Ruger instead and will review it when I have had a chance to use it a bit. So far I seems like a better product for a comparable price."
+19374,2,After Death Communication: Final Farewells Louis LaGrand purchased from Amazon.com,"I spoke by phone with the author around Thanksgiving past. She was very congenial.What caught my attention was the title of the segment, ""THE YELLOW DR. DENTON PAJAMAS."" This was the 2nd book of spirit encounters in my case, concerning contacts with spirits.This book was very good, and illustrated how rare it is to have a vision of the spirit's body, rather than the more common way of feeling a presence, a touch, or a fragrance. I was surprised at the number of unuasual electronic occurences, also common.Actually, I read this book some years ago, and Amazon.com had was a bargain rate."
+19375,1,Not worth the cash,"Talk about over-hyped. I read about this band in some of the NYC press, and wanted to catch a show, but missed it. I thought I?d pick up the CD instead, and now I?m glad I missed the show.What a mess. This band is the flavor of the week. They are just another group of wannabes who got together and thought it would be fun to become rock stars. They are very lucky they are getting the press they?ve gotten. The lead male singer does have an interesting voice, but I really don?t get the point of the female in the group. (...) She seems to have no point.Don?t waste your money."
+19376,2,Great CD!,"Kerry Christiansen is THE BEST yodeler I have ever heard. I yodel, so I was drawn to the CD in hopes of learning some of the yodels. Even if you are a beginner there are songs on here that you can learn! The CD skips, but I'm not sure if it's the CD's problem or not. It might just be a defect in this one. If you are the least bit interested in yodeling, buy it!!!!!! If you aren't the slightest bit into it, this CD might just change your mind."
+19377,2,Bias Unveiled,"Visions of the East explores mass media biases and prejudices towards the Arab. It's an easy, interesting read; it focuses on examples and backrounds as a means of illustrating the inherant reacism (""Arabism"") in popular culture. Too often we don't realize the stereotypes being publicized are just that- stereotypes. Visions of the East reminds the reader to look deeper, to examine material before absorbing it. An excellent book for better understanding the rampant Eurocentrism in media and film and the reasons behind it."
+19378,2,An Excellent Epic,"This movie is truly legendary. What I can't stand is people criticizing it for copying other films. Can anyone explain how Ben hur could have ""stolen"" from Smokey and the Bandit when Smokey and the Bandit was made nearly 20 YEARS after Ben Hur? If you are going to criticize a movie, at least get your facts straight. That argument is just as bad as criticizing The Seven Samurai of copying The Magnificent Seven Ughh, manners people! manners"
+19379,1,Cute sweater but cheaply made,"I bought these sweaters for my dachshunds and they fit their long bodies very nicely. They are a nice rich color with contrasting neck and arm holes. Conveniently, they have an opening on the back for harnesses.I would love to have given these sweaters 5 stars and ordered more (my dogs love to stay warm during the cold high-desert winters!) But after only one use the arm ripped out of the sweater. There wasn't any exercise orplaying going on - just normal dog activity around the house. On one side almost the whole arm-hole is coming apart from the rest of the sweater.I had to cancel the sweater that I had back-ordered because I would rather pay a little more and have a sweater that at least made it to the wash before having to throw it away! The other sweater seems to be holding up okay. The material pilled up quite a bit after washing, but still wearable. So I am 1/2 - not bad but not great. Buyer beware :)"
+19380,2,Pure lyricism,"Swinburne is one of the most lyrical poets of England. He has often been accused of writing poetry that is nothing but a lot of empty musical sounds; this is patently false, as Swinburne was quite capable of capturing vivid images and intriguing psychologies, a talent which is best evinced in poems such as ""Anactoria."" However, even if it were true, the ""empty musical sounds"" have enough innate value to redeem his entire poetic canon!"
+19381,2,Something the Lord Made,"Es una pelicula mas que excelente, te acoge en su drama y no dejaras de verla hasta el final y te quedaras con ganas de volverla a ver. Cautivara tu corazon, te hara llorar de rabia y de felicidad. Es una pelicula que todos deben de ver, especialmente aquellos que quieran estudiar medicina o a los que son medicos, para que creen la conciencia de la humildad y el servicio humano a los pacientes."
+19382,2,The best product for crosswords.,This is my second copy of The New York Times Crossword Puzzle Dictionary. I am replacing the first copy that I have worn completely out from constant use. I have over the years found no better assistance for crosswords than this product.
+19383,2,why I'm the first?,I've no word to describe the atmosphere of this album. I suggest for all the people that loves the 80 English music
+19384,2,Jeff's Been Pretty Prolific - Another new album in 3 years!,"I first got tuned in and turned on to Jeff Beck with his ""Who Else?"" cd, which in my personal opinion is the best. But this newest offering is a good mix of sounds and rhythms, and Jeff is experimenting with alot of interesting styles and sounds. I would just as soon that he keep it instrumental as opposed to including vocals on his stuff. His style is unmistakeable and strong enough to hold its own without the help of anyone singing.. This is good.. but ""Who Else?"" is really choice!"
+19385,2,Fun...if I could see it....,"I've waited ever so long for this, a sequal to the rpg-style of SotN, and I wasn't disappointed. But one thing I really didn't like, ( well two ), but that the DSS card system was unfair, since in 47% through the game, I've only recovered 5 cards! Now, my second main dislike, was of couse, the lightness of the screen. Even with the wormlight, it's still hard to see some enemies at times, that is, if you're not in a pitch dark room with only the wormlight on...heh. Otherwise, this is a MUST OWN, it is a good platformer and enough depth to keep even the most hardkore glued to their GBA screens for hours!"
+19386,1,Horrible,"The awful remixes that make up the majority of this disc are disgusting. I like house music, and this is not good house music. It sounds like a mambo rednex!Do not buy this!"
+19387,2,A Sci-fi Classic Cleaned Up,"I love this movie and have never owned it in a digital format. I have read DVD reviews saying that it was not even as good as a video tape but this Blu-Ray really looks and sounds great (considering the age and quality of the original film). One thing that really stood out in HD was the weakness of the ending special effects though. You could really see the wires holding Connor in the air and the ""ghosts"" looked especially cheesy. I would call those last comments ""spoilers"" but how do you give away the plot to a 25 year old movie? Still a great film though and it was worth the extra money for the import since it doesn't look like a US version is in the works."
+19388,2,Curved Towel Bar with Shelf,"I have three kids and a set of two single towel rods just don't cut it. I seen this and I thought it would be perfect...and it is! I bought two so now I can hang six towels in the bathroom. The curve made it look so stylish, and useful. The extra shelving on the top is great for extra guest towel. I loved it!!"
+19389,2,The book was better,"Although the movie was very good, I believe that, as always, the book was better."
+19390,2,HARRY POTTER AND THE CHAMBER OF SECRETS ON PS2,"Harry Poter and the Chamber of Secrets is a hard but fun game. Once you beat a level it is very hard to stop. There was one level I enjoy very much. To get Ginny's brass scales in the Magical Menageri. It is hard and scary. It is not that hard now, but I love it. I love that part.Somethings I don't like about the game is:1. Hermiones favors. If she knows were the stuff is, can't she get it herself?!2.The prefects. They are very annoying. When they find you and blow you up. Then they shake their fingers at you. Sometimes they don't even look at you. They walk to you then turn away. I dont like it.Anyways, the graphics of this game and PS2 are great!"
+19391,2,Expensive!!,product was new and was sent via expediete shiipping as requested. My only concern is that considering pc makers do not use these hdd anymore it is a little expensive. you can get a 500gb sata hdd for the same price but since my laptop is almost 5 yrs old I was forced to get this type. My pc is still good enough to spend a 100$ on it but was only hoping to spend 75.
+19392,1,Yuck,"Although I love Oakenfold, this cd is not very good. The music dates itself and it's very simplistic and generally awful..I tried to get into it without success. The worst."
+19393,1,Not for highligted hair,"I follow the intructions, i did it at night. The result was straight greasy hair, i thought that maybe the next day i could use the flat Iron a little bit more and that the hair will absord the product at night but instead, because of the smell i have nightmares of smeling fumes of fire, i woke up and it was the smell of my hair. Next day the grease in my hair look like yellow dandruf, so i just wash my hair and my highlighs turned out orange. Now my throat hurts i think it was the fumes of the product while i was using the flat iron because i felt a bitter taste in my mouth while ironing my hair the night i used the product. In my personal experience i won't recomend this product."
+19394,2,Love this little tool!,"I want another one! I use this kitchen tool to froth hot milk or just to stir my drinks. If I am having chocolate milk, I just dip it into my milk and chocolate to stir it up instead of manually doing it. It may sound lazy but it mixes the drink thoroughly, within seconds. Can't beat it. The quality was very good also."
+19395,2,Good Movie,I had been looking for this movie for some time and found it on amazon at a really low price. It now is in my collection and I am sure to be watching it many times over.
+19396,1,Ehh..,I got this hoping it would be good. I only used it 3 times and it just stopped working and I don't know what to do.
+19397,2,Almost like new.,"I got a good price on this book, but was surprised when I received it that there was apersonal inscription inside the front cover. I bought this book as a memorial to a friendand gave it to the Library in her memory. They were kind enough to paste a memorial noteover the inscription, so all was good.The book is beautiful, full of factual information I've never read anywhere else. And thepictures are awesome! Well worth the price I paid."
+19398,1,"Beautiful graphics, difficulty is insane","I had high hopes for this game, and they were met for the first couple of levels. After 3 hours on the fourth level however, I gave up. The difficulty of this game is ridiculous. The fact that there were 20 someodd levels after that, which I assume get more difficult, mean this game is destined for ebay. Designers should realize games are meant to be fun, not frustrating. The ability to save in a level may have helped."
+19399,2,Excellent,"This is a great overview of succession planning for family businesses. Not only did I enjoy reading it, I give copies to family business owners, their family members, and/or their employees who are struggling with this issue. I highly recommend it!!!"
+19400,2,A mighty Zeppelin CD,This album shows Zeppelin at their most tense and most energetic. A very electric & muscular album that has no acoustic guitar on it at all. This album is a desperate and powerful Zeppelin. One of my favorites!
+19401,2,When itruns it's great,The only problem I find with this game is the number of times the game disconnects you from the server. Other than that the game is great!
+19402,2,Stick well,I can never seem to find all the spice names in one set but aside from that the words are easy to read and the labels stuck
+19403,1,not too good,"This book is perfunctory and extremely shallow. Russell's reductive reading of the tradition shows little insight. However, it is amusing at times, hence the star."
+19404,2,Wonderful devotional,"31 chapters; 1 a day for a month.A friend invited me to read this during Advent, and I am so glad she did!! Encouraging words and worth repeating in all times and seasons. Andrew Murray is highly recommended."
+19405,2,Connelly's 2nd book is a winner,"Michael Connelly's book ""Black Ice"" (the 2nd book he wrote) takes us back to Harry Bosch and his investigation of a suicide of a police officer. Bosch gets involved in the case since his supervisor knows Bosch can solve cases and the department needs to get some cases closed to make the politicians look good.The plot gets more involved as Bosch finds himself dealing with Mexican authorities and the drug cartel in Mexico. It's a good read from one of the best mystery writers around these days. Not to ""spoil"" anyone's reading of the numerous books written by Connelly, but this book (Black Ice) and his latest book (The Lincoln Lawyer) have a connection which will surprise you.If you haven't read anything by Michael Connelly it is time to do so!"
+19406,1,Angel or Spike?,"With this book I was hoping to know more about the Buffy Italian experience and the meeting with her beloved two vampires. I was disappointed, because the story is nice but the end is too unbelievable (the mistic daughter!). When will we read, finally, the choise between Angel and Spike?Camilla"
+19407,1,not what you think,ya know got it in may died in sep what can i say bad quality no durability just like most crap you buy these days oh and can only get partial refund of maybe 2 bucks and i pay for shipping so to the dump it go's.
+19408,2,Expanding Your Kingdom Experience,"The ""Kingdom Principles Study Guide"" is designed as a supplement to Myles Munroe's book ""Kingdom Principles"" and is made up of 40 lessons to be used over a 40 day period.Each daily lesson includes: A scripture verse for the day, a daily devotion based on an excerpt taken from the book ""Kingdom Principles,"" several related thought provoking, application questions, and a meditation. These include principles for contemplation, concepts for consideration, and distinctiveness of the Kingdom of God to experience.I found the devotional thoughts motivational and inspirational, the application questions stimulating and compelling, and the meditations to be rich with a moving, and meaningful focus.This is an important, comprehensive study guide that will help the reader expand their kingdom living experience as they reflect anew on ""Kingdom Principles."""
+19409,2,Beloved Game,"My 6th grade students love this game. It's amazing how many math facts can be easily taught using this game. My students beg me to continue playing even when BINGO has been called or the bell has rung.Teachers love this game for the variety. Each card has multiple problems, all with the same answer, enabling you to play this throughout the year, focusing on various techniques each time.When I play, I write the problem on the board and work it at the same time the students are working it. I write the answers in a column to keep everyone honest. We usually can do 20-30 problems in 1/2 hour.I'd also highly recommend their Fraction Bingo and Algebra Bingo."
+19410,1,A rich white man's manual to living the proper Republican life.,"It is easy for the mother to stay at home and raise the children when there is half a million dollars in the checking account. This book is surely a good read for the families that can afford to have two homes and a housekeeper. For the majority of American families, the Senator's book is an utter waste of time. More like a work of fiction, if you ask me."
+19411,1,Not what is pictured!,"IF you order this product, you will receive a bag of ""Small World Rabbit Food"" [...]When contacted, this seller does not address why the picture is of MannaPro Pro food, some of the best food on the market. Only says, it's by the same company.That's great and all, but this is a bait and switch!DO NOT ORDER THIS PRODUCT!"
+19412,2,"Jazz Standards With Originality, Richness and Feeling","Sasha Dobson sings jazz standards with precision and feeling. The richness of her voice is complimented by the Chris Byers Octet, which sounds like more than 8 musicians yet does not overwhelm Ms. Dobson. The originality of some of the ""improvisations"" make these standards, like ""What Is This Thing Called Love?"" and ""April in Paris"" absolutely wonderful to listen to."
+19413,1,Pretty Ugly Drivel,"Fear-Mongering, hate-mongering is the game here.There are two maps for the history and future of this nation. One that considers that the past atrocities commited, such as the eradication of the natives, the enslavement of the blacks, were actual crimes commited, to help develop the nation into a more human and civilized nation. The USA in that case is on the right track. Another path for this nation would be to follow the advice of these two lunatics, and keep on looking for a fight, one fight after another, until lo and behold, we get enough enemies to make us pay back for it all, past and present."
+19414,1,The ultimate trial of patience,I dare you to make it through the first 100 pages of this book without wanting to put it down. Such was the trial for me when I read this....arggg...jussttt.. a little more...its going to get better just give it time...too late I quit. The prose are needlessly dense and are in need of heavy editing. Friends that have finished it tell me it gets better near the end....but is the torment really worth it? NO!!!. Ive warned you...this one is a snoozer!!!
+19415,1,"Great reader, Bad writer","Some of you are probally confused about this product since some are giving 5 stars and others 1 star. Well i will tell you right now why. Because the burner will destroy DVD's if they have certain file types. The one's giving 5 stars didn't use those file types, or just blame their software. Its not like im using bad software, i've used nero 6 and 7. Those work perfectly with other drives. Don't blame the software, as many reviewers have. The problem lies in the drivers.It can read the most scratched up disks, it can write cd's perfectly, but it can't write a load of movie files! The only way to get around this is convert the movie file to another format, and if you have to buy software to do that, its already more expensive then better drives. Not to mention the loads of time wasted and lack of quality/space suffered when converting a file.Treat this as a DVD/CD combo drive. Reads DVD's, Writes and Reads CD's."
+19416,2,EXCELLENT PRODUCT,"What a great item! I have had hand surgery & this has been so very helpful. My only complaint is that the top dosn't raise high enough to open taller jars, aslo I have noticed the rubber that goes around the jars has been coming off, if I loose this it will not be able to open jars. Otherwise THANKS!"
+19417,2,"Heats Well, But Stains Easily","Well, I wanted to believe these would be as good as it's French Competition. It heats well, that's fine, but I find that food sticks, and it stains very easily. I always have to use a scour pad after use to get it looking clean."
+19418,1,NLP all over again,Deja vu all over again with this rehash of NLP techniques. Disappointing as it was recommended highly by a colleague.
+19419,1,Doesn't play.,"I ordered this DVD for my AP English class. We had just finished reading the play and I thought seeing it would be helpful. The DVD won't play on my DVD player in class so I tried using the laptop. It still wouldn't play because it had some sort of anti-copying block on it. Since I wasn't trying to copy it, I couldn't figure out why the block prevented it from playing. My class still has not seen this and I hesitate to order other DVDs to go along with other things we are reading because I am concerned that they won't play in class either."
+19420,1,THIS IS HORRIBLE!!!,"I have the original clocks tape. I downloaded this black box version thinking I was getting the old tracks remixed and perhaps some new songs. The new songs were ok ,sort of ,but the real, first album ,tracks were much better, with more energy and better b side songs ,that are not on this reissue . overall don't waste your time with this and raise hell with the record company type's to release the original recordings."
+19421,2,"Broad base, offers options","Dobson's book offers new homeschoolers a wealth of ideas and approaches to beginning homeschooling. Drawing on the experiences of actual, real-life homeschoolers, not just her own, she gives people glimpses into the day-to-day life of homeschooling families.It's refreshing to read anecdotes, tips, and ideas from real people all over the country who are educating their children at home. The book offers suggestions, but also gives options and flexibility to those beginning their homeschooling journey.I think the book takes the pressure off homeschoolers who think they need to educate their children the way public institutions do. It gives them the freedom and confidence to explore a variety of ""methods"" to find one that works best for their family situation.And, chances are, if you're like me, your approach will change and evolve with the expansion, growth, and needs of your family! And that is as it should be!"
+19422,1,Hard to Read,"I purchased this while it was $2, thinking I'd expand my reading topics. I can't finish the book. I think it could have been a good book - but the speach patters the charactors use drive me nuts. It reads like something a child would write. I read a lot and there are very few books I can't finish, but this one has twists and turns that don't seem to make sense, charators that seem stiff, and over all, just not a good flow."
+19423,1,good pourer poor stopper,"This product works great as a pourer and looks somewhat stylish, however as a stopper it is poor. The stopper piece works only with the wine stored vertically. So if you put this on its side in the fridge it will leak. If you have room to store bottles vertically this works ok, but it is not reliable if wine is stored horizontally."
+19424,2,Creepy,The creepiest book I've ever read! It's a creepy mystery/romance all in one creepy book! I would read it again lol
+19425,1,Not impressed with kate,"The character of Kate grated on my nerves! In spite of all that had happened showing the law couldn't help her, she was naive enough to think ""the system will work"". Seth is a man who is an absolute expert at keeping people safe, a man who would never back down. Yet she fights him at every turn. ""You can't tell me what to do"" or ""I'll do what I want"". She needs to remember she has a family to protect and stop acting like a willful child!"
+19426,1,Don't waste your money.,The charger stopped working after a few weeks. I contacted Bargain Cell and never received a response. Don't waste your money.
+19427,1,BEWARE product and return policy,"I bought this for my son to keep in his room. After playing a CD ONE TIME, the player would no longer play any CD. I got the player ready to return and then saw the return policy for the RECORDING STORE - I had three days from original delivery to return it. Unfortunately, I had missed the deadline - I was on summer vacation for four days when it was delivered, I took a day to pull it out of the package, two days to realize that the player was actually defective (not user error) and we were out of range of returning it according to the company. I strongly recommend that you look at a more established brand of player and buy from a company that has a less draconian return policy. I bought a Sony from Best Buy and am very pleased now."
+19428,1,Discraceful!,"[...] Our mom decided to preview it first. She thought it was an odd role for Randy to play. First she was only going to let us older girls watch it, 15 and up. But as she started to get further into the film, she decided we were not going to watch it at all! She said that all Randy did was beat up the kid and his wife. They used bad language and four letter words. They kept on calling a girl retard. To make it worse,Randy Travis is a christian!"
+19429,1,Faulty pens?,"I have used these pens for quite a while now, and have always been pleased, until now. I do a lot of word search puzzles so I am very particular about the type of pen I use and I like a bold, smooth writing pen. The last batch that I received(i always order two boxes) a majotity of the pensI used had to be pressed hard and turned to one side or the other to make a mark! I keep changing pens out of the box to find one that works consistently, I have not had this problem before and am not happy to have it now. I have experienced the same problem with both of the boxes I received. Has the manufacturer changed the formula?"
+19430,2,YELLFIRE! by Miachael Franti,"This is a very intelligent and needed album of moving songs. The US would do well to elect someone with the understanding and vision of this prophet to a leadership position. Michael Franti has groomed a very tight group to support his music. You will dance and cry, in turns. Thought provoking."
+19431,2,I read it in 2 evenings.....Not Bad....,"Having read some of the other reviews and the less thanglowing comments, I don't agree with most of them. True,this is not the ""normal"" Zombie story that we have beenreading forever. I like the way Mr. Bourne differs fromthe ""format"" many have grown used to reading. This storyis written in the form of a journal and I find that aninteresting and different view of a Very Bad New Worldthe writer finds himself in. Is it a ""text"" book way toteach us about how to survive in a Zombie World, NO it isfiction for crying out loud. I like Zombie books of ALLkinds and have already ordered the next 2 in this series.Am I ready for the Zombie Invasion of 2012? Not yet butI am getting there. Are You? Something is coming our way,and remember Zombies come in MANY WAYS. Enjoy this story,or is it indeed only a story....."
+19432,2,POWERFUL WORKING MACHINE,"This Dewalt cut-off/Demo machine is AWESOME!! It will slice through steel I-Beam without any laboring. Angle Iron- it was too easy. (Do not use cheap cut-off blades on this machine. They will wobble and fly apart.) I use the Dewalt or other top brand metal cutting blades that are designed and capable of the power this machine produces. If you'e ever cut steel before you know how much an under powered saw will slow you down.I also used this tool for cutting concret floors. A 12"" Diamond Wet/Dry blade with a vacuum attachment worked beautifully. The adjustable shoe/plate makes it easy the set any depth you need. This machinde is heavy duty, very versatile and powerful to handle any steel or concrete projects you may have!"

+19434,1,disappointment,"I am a big Randy Neuman fan, but did not like this CD. The one song I bought it for was sung by someone else, not Randy, and 99% of the songs on it were biblical, like for a church service, and others were from the stage."
+19435,2,Alex's bird review,"Birdwatchers,hello! I am an 8-year old birder. If you love birds and need some good information 'Nat Geo's Complete Birds of North America' has great info on behavior, identification and other important bird stuff! It is the first book I look at if my family or a friend describes a bird they saw today.I reccomend this highly, and you can buy it at almost every bookstore or library."
+19436,2,"No edge,but a polished platter.","In Square Circle makes it plain that the 70's are over(at least in the case of Stevie's music),but his melodic gifts makes this a worthwhile album and the best of his musical phase that began with the post-Musiquarium period.Part Time Lover is a deserved #1 song(as well as his last),and Overjoyed is the most beautiful song ever recorded.Other strong cuts includes I Love You Too Much,Whereabouts,&Never In Your Sun.Go Home about the love rejected,now regretted scenario may have sounded good on paper but doesn't hold up on repeated listens.The albums weakest moment are his social conscience songs(Spiritual Walkers,The Land of LaLa,It's Wrong)showing how much we miss the Stevie Wonder of Innervisions.ISC may not have the soul of his 70's recordings,but his heart is in the right place."
+19437,2,nearly superior anime,"Whether you are new to anime or have been a long time viewer of anime, Vampire Hunter D is a sure win! Everything from the characters to the dark feel of the movie is done right. I won't spoil the plot for anyone who hasn't seen this though I will say that Vampire Hunter D is not by any means your typcial horror flick of blood thirsty vampires. I haven't read the book that this movie is based on so I can't compare the film to the book. I do wish though that the movie was a bit longer than 85 minutes but trust me when I say that the amount of time doesn't take away from the story or the viewing pleasure for that matter. As for the dvd features, I think there could have been a more detailed featurette though the features that are on the disk aren't bad."
+19438,1,This pad is absolute trash.,"I purchased this pad for my girlfriend and I so that we could play DDR without having to buy those flimsy cheapo pads. We were just begginers when we got this pad, and it was already displaying a huge amount of problems.Personaly I play on medium, and she plays on light. Withen not even a week of using this pad the left arrow sensor has literally shifted to the middle of the pad. There is NO WAY to fix this problem. I repeat, IT COULD NOT BE FIXED!So basically we paid $100 for a very expensive door mat. I have no idea why people have recommended this product, or why it has gotten so many great reviews. But you've been officially warned!(Also the same dilemma is now happening to the down arrow sensor, we are using the foam and we are folding the pad properly and taking good care of it. But for the safety of your wallet shop for something that is actually worth the money.)"
+19439,1,Best of the King Games,"Best of the King games even though that isn't saying very much. This one can be fun, especially multi-player. Great for family entertainment."
+19440,2,"good idea, good execution","A worthy buy in the long run for the money you'll save on batteries, plus the battery packs last a long time. The cables are nice and long too."
+19441,2,Prime example of fantasy at it's best by a fresh new author,"After reading Mr. Ventimiglia's book, The Bloodsword Saga, I was impressed by the vast array of emotion on each page. This emotion seems to spill over from his other writings, of which I have read most. Mr. Ventimiglia has an uncanny ability to put the dark side of humanity into the written word and I look forward to many more literary contributions."
+19442,1,Not worth the money,"This blender seemed to leave a lot of chunks of whatever you were blending - no matter how long you ran it. And, the rubber feet that spin the blade broke off one by one until it is useless. What a waste money."
+19443,2,Absorbing!,"I couln't put it down. I wish there were more books like it. Fasinating read, full of history. I learned alot about the horrors of William the Conquerer and how difficult life was in those days. I hope the author sends us another one!"
+19444,1,collection piece,"While not the best piece in my collection, it was worth the purchase. The harem ladies each tell a tale of passion so the book is a series of short stories. A quick and light read, the stories are not overly graffic but lusty enough to keep your interest."
+19445,1,Go elsewhere!!!,"Extremely disappointing. overly simplistic, no real insights, and it does not deliver the essential information I was lead to believe it contained. I advise you to go elsewhere."
+19446,2,Great! Love it,"Great Blood Pressure machine. After having it for over a year, it works great, and keep the information accurate. And you don't need to use the wall plug. One of my best purchases. Would definitely recommend."

+19450,2,I Want a DVD!! I Want a DVD!!,"I have watched this wonderful movie on VHS so many times, that the tape is going bad. This is a feel good movie that I watch every time I am feeling down. The friendship that develops between these four ladies is so endearing. Please, please release this film on DVD!!"
+19451,2,Good (but could be better),A good read for women and men (perhaps especially men). It shows that being a woman does not mean you're a 2nd class citizen in the body of Christ. My only gripe is that the book isn't in-depth enough. I would have liked to see J.T. Bristow write about the entire New Testament and not just Paul's writings.
+19452,2,"Review of ""The Artists Specials"" DVDs","I just recently received the Artists' Specials DVD Collectors Set. I teach art in a home school co-op and I was looking for some biographies which were appropriate for high school students. I've just recently watched two of the videos and they are quite good. In fact, after the one on Rembrandt, I did some research on his life and the information portrayed in the video was totally accurate. My hats off to this company. I would recommend these for any classroom or home school setting."
+19453,1,Adobe FramaMaker 7.0 Classroom in a book,"The disk that accompanies the book is inaccurate. It made doing the lessons very confusing. I finally had to contact Adobe Press to find out why the lessons and the sample files didn't work as mentioned in the book. They said the disk had errors, they would send me a replacement. But I'm still waiting... it has been over two week since they said they would send a replacement.And of course like the series of books of the Classroom in a book... it isn't very detailed especially on authoring structured FrameMaker."
+19454,1,Short Life Span,"It's adorable and works great! I used it mostly at night when I sleep. However, the motor will die within a year. So only buy it, if you don't mind spending the money to replace it every year."
+19455,1,Badly written romantic comedy,"Really, the only thing going for this movie are all the nice quotes interspersed throughout the movie.In any romantic comedy, the maxim is that the romantic leads must have appeal in some way to the viewer. Ione Sky's character does not. While she's supposed to be a literate, depressive, yet idealistic romantic, she comes off simply as a self-absorbed, self-centered drama queen. Moreover, the backstory involving the reason for her isnomnia is completely unconvincing as none of it is reflected in her character.I simply found the romance ludicrious and rather disturbing in its conclusion. You do not want to see these two get together. The other characters are rote Gen-X cliches and the use of black and white in the beginning of the movie unfortunatedly highlights the all-around weak acting."
+19456,1,Outdated information,I bought this book along with the one by Gary Eldred.Eldred's had much more up to date info.This book was full of stats from the mid to late 1990s even though it was written in 2002.He never fully goes into the tax benefits of Real Estate especially 1031 exchanges etc.He bought his condos at a high interest rate making his payments higher and thus affecting his formula on how to know if you are getting a good deal or not.I can not reccomend this book.
+19457,1,The part was damaged before it was sealed in plastic bag,"The reason I know this, Is because there wasnt a broken piece in the sealed plastic bag!! So the piece was damaged before it was sealed!!"
+19458,2,Whitesnake,"This is a good album. Finally there is a compilation with all of Whitesnakes ""real"" hits. The only thing missing from this collection would be Come and Get It. Then it would be complete. Otherwise this is probably one of the best ones ever. Just take off Here I Go Again (because both versions sucked) and then your set!"
+19459,2,Fantastic,"These videos are soo much fun. Onfortunately, I spent to much to buy them on video tape and will probably buy them on DVD as well (because I cannot resist). These are especcially good for people who are just learning english as the visuals are enough to convey the story. I only wish there were more than 5 stars."
+19460,1,Battle of Los Angeles,"Didn't take very long to realize I ordered wrong DVD. Names close ""Battle of Los Angelas"" and ""Battle: Los Angelas"". Almost stopped movie 20 minutes into, only mistake was I didn't and tried watching whole movie. Animation is on 1980's standard, interaction of space ships with people looked so fake. Also the alien guns used by our guys was so fake looking. Not to mention a lot of the acting was very lame. Must of been a very very low budget film."
+19461,1,weid movie,"I only watch this movie because I love everything about the 70's, but this movie is not that good to me."
+19462,1,Im extremely dissapointed...and so is my walat.,Was not worth time or money. There was little to no romance and what little might be called romance by some was just depressing. I couldn't even finish the book and kept skipping pages hoping to get to finally see any relationship forming...nope not even a speck. Wish I could get my money back... -_-
+19463,1,...,"I bought this item last year and although it does what I need it to, I found there to also be a few too many glitches with the product.For example, as a result of my loading PCSync onto my computer, it won't shut down all the way. I must now manually shut it off. I attempted to rectify this situation but found that the technical support folks at PCsync/Laplink are the absolute worst. They have a huge attitude and are very bitter. And to add insult to injury, they don't seem to have very much knowledge in regard to the product. It goes without saying that they were unable to rectify the shutdown issue.If you don't mind the inconvenience of the shut down issue each time you turn off your computer, then get the product."
+19464,2,"ODD, ODD MATERIAL","For those of you who don't know who Goliath is, they are a band who play mostly Gothic Rock. Like newer Katatonia. The catch with this cd is that the lyrics are Christian based. Fans of Tool,Korn,Katatonia,Opeth etc will love this! ROCK ON!"
+19465,1,MORE HYPE THAN SUBSTANCE,"This book was an insult to my intelligence. Instead of an objective biography, it comes across as a paid P.R piece written by a Ted Turner sycophant. Don't waste your money on this trash. Too bad there isn't a ""zero stars"" rating!!!"
+19466,1,It Leaks!,"I used this when I became too sore to use my electric pump. The milk seeps under the pump guard and it leaks out from the edges onto clothes. I wouldn't even say getting this as a pump for when you're on the go is a good idea because the leaking milk will get all over leaving you with clean up. I had to buy a replacement part because the bottom part that screws on the base of the pump cracked from sterilizing (which it says you can do). They don't sell just that one little piece so I had to buy the actual pump again as a part. It cost nearly $30 to order this part and it took over 2 weeks to receive it. The entire system just isn't durable or made for much use. Also, cleaning down into the bend of this pump thoroughly is practically impossible."
+19467,1,Wow,This CD is the worst thing that has ever happened to music...ever. Somebody must have told Fred Durst that he was Zach De la Rocha. Don't buy this.
+19468,2,Traveling Down Nostalgia Lane,"As a little girl in the 1950s, I dreamed of becoming another Esther Williams. What fun it was to watch all five of these Esther Williams classics and travel down Nostalgia Lane! Not only were the movies great, but the special features were also quite interesting. One in particular was an interview with Esther Williams in which she told many behind-the-scenes stories of what it was like to be a star at MGM.This set of five films put onto DVDs was definitely worth every penny. It is a quality purchase."
+19469,1,REWEINED MY HOME BUTON,it destroyed my home button. had to replace it.... cost me another 25 dollars + 5 hours of my time to replace it... wouldn't buy again... it also just made my scratches on my iPhone 4 worse... horrible product....
+19470,1,Vials pop out of tray,"A great concept of protecting your insulin vials, but the plastic tray is awkward to use. My insulin vials kept popping out, or sometimes popped out so forcefully when I did try to remove them, that I ended up dropping them on the floor. They used to have a great case with durable elastic loops for your vials...the predecessor to this version. It was much better but I don't think they make it anymore."
+19471,2,How far would you go?,"Very well made film involving Terroism, Torture and how far you would go to stop someone from taking Innocent lives. Kill the few to save the many? That is the basic question here. Samuel L. Jackson is very good in this. I recommend watching this film. Really makes you think and question your own Convictions."
+19472,1,100% pure child abuse - destroying a child for life!,"This is 100% pure child abuse! This is a book for people who want to destroy a child for life! The author as so many others dysfunctional ""Christians"" claim to know what God wants, and believes that striking another human being makes them ""godly"". What went wrong with this author in his child hood? The author is manipulating the Holy Bible to give support for his sick child abuse and own dysfunctional childhood. Child abuse is NOT a way of raising children, and certainly NOT what God wants. Nowhere in the Bible does it say to strike a child! Children are God's gift. Not a ""thing"" to control and abuse as the author thinks. The violence towards children by these sick ""Christians"" is disgusting. Christian means ""Christ like"" which means to be humble, loving, giving, forgiving, gentle. ""Discipline"" comes from Latin ""to teach"" - not to spank, or punish."
+19473,1,Graphic design - not architecture!,"As with the previous two volumns in the Morphosis Building and Projects series, this book emphasizes graphics, not architecture. It is difficult, if not impossible to understand the concepts indicated in the computer generated images. Very few actual photos of buildings. The text is also very complex and seems to attempt to discuss issues deeper than any of the designs seem to achieve. I own all three volumnes and this is by far the poorest. I continue to hope that a better product will be produced showcasing Morphosis. No insight is gained from this book - only pure frustration. Look elsewhere for fresh architectural ideas - you will not understand these!"
+19474,2,USB connector cables for iPhone,This product works well but not necessarily the first time. The first cables I received did not work when I connected my iPhone to my laptop or to the wall outlet. The company replaced the v=cables right away and the new arrivals worked well.
+19475,1,a letdown,"I looked forward to this book quite a bit after the The Healer and A Real Hero, but it was disappointing. The hunt for the deranged serial killer and all the minutiae of police procedures took up most of the book. It is pretty obvious who the villain is early on, and your initial guess will be right, but confusing irrelevant details seemed to drag the story down. Also,there was sex here, yes, but in my opinion very little romance. Interactions between Jesse and Delilah were mainly based on guilt, lust, and anger. The story featured few glimpses of their ""off-the-job"" lives. I liked the last couple of chapters and the epilogue, but found very little to enjoy before that. Are Superromances just going downhill?"
+19476,1,How ya like them apples?,"This film tries hard to be better than it is. The animation is striking, although a little too digital for my taste. The casting of Matt Damon as the voice over for Spirit was a TERRIBLE idea. This emblem of Western freedom shouldn't have a slight Boston accent.Despite my complaints, the movie isn't the worst thing ever, and my son (2.5 years old) loves it."
+19477,1,BUYER BEWARE,"If you plan to use this car seat for less than one year, then keep it; otherwise you only have a 90 day Evenflo warranty. I purchased this car seat (...) and it didn't last as long as the other seat I used for both of my daughters. When I called the company shortly after purchasing it to find out how to wash it, they told me I couln't. When I called to complain about the seat (...), it could miraculously be washed -- after 2 disgusting years -- by removing the back plate with a screwdriver. The problem now is that the velcro and backing has totally ripped apart, and when I went to remove one of the clips from the seat, it tore a hole in the fabric. If I place it in the washer, I'm sure it will fall apart. Evenflo will NOT replace the cover, but is willing to waive the shipping and handling fee if I purchase a new one. There is no recall on my model, and the customer service was shoddy.Oh yea, and my 2 year old can get out of this one too! I should've bought the Britax."
+19478,1,Would be okay if you have a tiny head,"This thing is TINY. It says adult mask. My head is by no means gigantic, but attempting to get this on my head was a laughable exercise in futility. I DID eventually manage to cram my melon in, but my eyeballs and face strained at the holes like the heaving bosom of a trashy romance novel protagonist strains at a bodice. Luckily, I purchased it for a comedy sketch in a holiday revue, and after tearing it almost to the top of the head, it's serviceable in highlighting Christian Bale's awful acting. It also hurts my super manly jaw to wear.One final note for people with small enough heads to buy this on purpose: there are NO holes for the ears or nose, so I really hope you're a mouth-breather. When I exhale through my nose, it makes farting sounds up my temples and causes my entire head to be soaking wet when I am finally able to peel this off.Highly recommended."
+19479,2,This book was made for healing through creativity...,"I am honored to review this book...

Yes, they do work (meaning: they spin), but offer only a very little cooling effect!I run two Pentium D 930s on Intel motherboards (DQ965GF), and those fans only rev up to 1800 (compare that to 3000 on my older P4 3.2GHz) - and that only after the CPUs reach 70C (yes, that is SEVENTY DEGREES CELCIUS!!!!). After some time they cool the CPU down to 65C, which according to Intel is borderline temperature for that chip (again, compare that to 50C on my old P4 which already seemed a bit too high).I'm very disappointed, I'm getting another one. My recommondation: Spend some extra bucks on a decent heatsink, your CPU will be thankful in the long run.best regards."

For unexplained reasons, coffee does not go into pot but out the top of the filter. This happened to me 2-3 times a week no matter how careful I was about positioning the pot under the filter.

She only wants to watch this movie...over and over and over...The first thing she askes for in the morining is to ""watch Elmo!"" We actually have to limit her time watching it! I like it because it teaches her a lot about music, dancing, counting, and books."
+19484,2,Healing Oil,"Awesome product for healing. After years of regularly scheduled dermatologist treatments and religious use of commercial sunblock, pre-cancerous areas of my husband's face never healed. After a year and a half of using Neem oil and only minimal, all-natural sunblock, his face is almost completely healed and the dermatologist only wants to see him once a year instead of every 3 months! Our grandson's naturopath recently recommended it for eczema as well. GREAT product. We're on our second quart!"
+19485,1,Disappointing live effort,"Terri played in California this summer, and I saw her for the first time. I bought this CD at her concert, and I was disappointed that the album didn't capture the feeling I got at the show. That is to be expected, but this CD seems particularly unrepresentative of a Hendrix live performance. I bought another live album of hers and it was much better, still not the same experience, but closer than this."
+19486,2,"Quick, easy, and no-mess solution to peeling garlic cloves.","If you buy refrigerated jars of chopped garlic because you are always in a hurry and can't face the thought of peeling fresh garlic, this garlic peeler is a terrific alternative to that.Nothing could be easier to use. Just open the plastic tube, take out the 5"" long sleeve, which feels like rubber, and pop an un-peeled garlic clove inside the sleeve. Roll the tube back and forth a few times with the palm of your hand, feeling the garlic, and then shake out a fully peeled garlic clove. The skin stays inside the sleeve. Rinse the sleeve or put it in the top rack of your dishwasher, and you are done--a whole garlic clove rubbed clean of dry, tissue-thin skin--no mess, no fuss.I have given at least a dozen of these as small gifts and stocking presents, and they are a perfect (and useful hostess present. Everyone loves them. I haven't had to buy a jar of refrigerated chopped garlic in the two years that I've had this gadget. n Mary Whipple"

+19488,1,"Great movie, but the DVD image quality Sucks!!!","Great movie, but I'm very disapointed with the DVD image quality. It just simply sucks! Acceptable definition of contours in close plans, but very pixelated in the large/wide plans, to the point that loses detail completely and the image is almost - and just visual noise!!"

+19492,1,The overflow problem,"PLEASE take to heart the comments about overflow. Our coffee maker is less than a year old, and I am SICK of walking into the kitchen and finding -- no, not a lovely cup of hot coffe -- but a big huge mess. As another reviewer mentioned, this is not a result of user error, but of poor design. Buy this and take your chances."
+19493,2,The sad Book,"I really like this book,Where the Red Grows.I think that this is the best book I have ever read.I like to hunt, and this book has hunting adventurs in the book.I think that the point-of-view was handled the best.Billy goes back to his childhood,and tells the story as a man.The arthure uses good desciptions for the story.This book made me think about a family memmber that has died in the past.I would definthy recommend this book to a friend,so they could read Where the Red Fern Grows.GoRead This Book!!"
+19494,2,My favorite album to play drums with.,"Almost every song on this album has a great grove that sits forward in the mix. For drummers, it's easy to hear the rhythms because they are not buried or synth produced. The variety of grooves is good with a strong fundamental that is good for developing my ears and sticks. I throw in some of the fills, without losing the basic rhythm. The songwriting is decent. MercyMe is Christian contemporary music. Not exactly praise and worship--more like pop. Lyrically not as strong as my favorite song writers in other genres, but the tunes are good and sung with passion like the artist really means it (but is not in a worship trance either). I purchased this album for my nephew who is learning drums."

+19497,1,I am very disappointed in Sandra Brown's new style!!,"Sandra Brown go back to writing Romance, that is what you are good at and that is what your fans are looking to read. I WAS a #1 fan of Sandra Brown but her last two books have been terrible. She is trying to write suspense instead of romance and I don't think she makes it. Please, please go back to your old style of writing. This will be the last book I buy written by her if this is going to be her writing style."
+19498,2,I can see and write now.,"I bought this book for a writing class. It taught me to be more observant-sort of, and helped me to write with greater ease- kind of. I saw, I wrote. I wrote about what I saw. My teacher saw what I wrote about. I think I improved my level of observation too much, because now I look very critically at everything. It ruining my life. I can't get anything done at all, with my eyes taking so much time staring at one thing. I've become like some freakin' zombie now. But that only serves as a testament to the effectiveness of this here book. You will be looking at things in a whole new way. I'm more alert to my surrounding now. Perhaps paranoid. This book made me a schitzo. People now look at me like I'm a psychotic fool. I don't know whether to recommend this book or tell you to pass on this one. It was a good book. Buy it now. And see for yourself. You'll see things in a new light. But don't study too hard, it might drive you crazy."
+19499,1,cloeman barks and andrew harvey are the experts on rumi,"this work is derivative of others' works. If you want, read the authors who have translated from the original, have devoted a lifetime study to Rumi's work, with a diverse choice of words in translations, each translation revealing more and different from the one before. To know the real romance and the crippling character of Rumi as well as his divine interests, read books also by people who come from Rumi's part of the world. Zwieg, though admiring Rumi, writes in a New Age tone that may be fine for some. But for people who are interested in the deeper meanings of Rumi's work, it's not in pop psychology, but in religious studies at depth. Being enamoured of a poet is sweet. But, there is far more to give to understanding or giving critique and insights in depth."

+19501,1,Not High Resolution Audio - 24/44.1,"This is barely better than CD quality at 24/44.1. What a huge disappointment! Since the point of DVD-Audio is to offer high resolution and surround sound, this disc fails miserably. Yes, you get surround sound, but to call 24/44.1 ""advanced resolution"" is not even close, especially when compared to the more common 24/96.This disc only contains the surround mix. There is no stereo mix included.Do not buy."
+19502,2,One of the greatest Books ever written,"This book is a great piece of writing, especially concidering that the writer does not specialize in books, but in wrestling. I, myself, am an avid wrestling fan and a Mick Foley fan but I believe that non wrestling fans will share the same opinion as I about this book. It goes in detail about Mr. Foley's childhood and how he rose against all odds to become one of the greatest wrestlers ever. He has sacraficed himself to many times not to deserve everyone's respect."

+19504,1,What a pile of Crap,"I can't tell you how bad this sucked.This should be called washed up chicks with really bad Boob jobs.I should have looked at a review first, but I was in a hurry when I orderd this pile of crap.I should return it but I am just taking it as a lesson learned."
+19505,2,One year and loving it,I brought this last year from Amazon during the thanksgiving blowout. I was a little hesitant and was leaning more towards Sony or Samsung. But after reading the reviews and comparing the models at BestBuy went ahead and bought it. I had absolutely no problem with it in the one year I had it except for one pixel in the screen that went bad. Recommended.

+19507,2,The single best book on Word for Windows--period!,"As a professional software support technician specializing in Microsoft Office products, I've found Woody Leonhard's HACKER'S GUIDE TO WORD FOR WINDOWS (2nd Ed.) to be the single best book on Microsoft Word--period. While on the surface it is a guide to the WordBasic language, what it really is, is a look inside Microsoft Word, letting you see the nuts and bolts, the cogs and wheels--and the not-so-occasional glitch. My personal copy, sitting beside my pc as I type, is very battered and dog-eared, testimony to the hard use it has received over the past year. I can recommend it without reservation to anyone using Word, writing WordBasic macros, or just plain interested in what makes a word-processing program tick"
+19508,1,disjointed,"While Walker successfully conveys the tension and fatigue of the rescuers and the terror of the rescuees, he is not a friend of language. His technical descriptions, biographical paragraphs and unrelated chapters make this a difficult story to follow. The editors should have shortened this book by about half by cutting information and tightening up the writing. It is a great story but a challenge to read"
+19509,2,A Must Have!,"This is the entire Jeeves and Wooster series. Every episode is a gem. If you like british comedy, this is a must have."
+19510,2,Great products for curl definition!,"I am African American and have long natural hair (no relaxer). My hair is VERY tightly coiled (e.i. KINKY!). These products, when used properly, will definitely define any type of curl pattern your hair may have. I bought the entire collection off of Avenue You in June 2006 and when I do not straighten my hair with my Maxiglide and want to go au natural, these products enhance my coily locks. Usually my hair is very frizzy, but the Deva Curl system eliminates that. I never knew my curls could be frizz-free. The B'Leave In and Angell are the BEST! No other products work like these. I highly recommend Deva Curl for ANY curly hair type!"
+19511,1,Worthless,"The problem with buying online is that you can't see the item before you buy it. You can only go by the very little bit amazon allows you to view. In the case of this pamphlet, there isn't much to see at all. Poor, childishly sketched pictures, very few butterflies or moths included. I regret purchasing it."
+19512,2,A wonderful book!,"I direct the Sibling Support Project, a national project dedicated to the concerns of siblings of people with disabilities and this book nails sibling issues! Even better, it's funny and poignant and reads like a novel. This is one bus you won't want to miss."

+19514,2,Great Little Light!,"I bought two of these and they're great. They have two different light levels which is really nice depending on whether you want work light or ambiance.The installation instructions are minimal so here are a couple hints: They are a little tricky to dismantle, especially the white metal cover--it slides off. And fastening one of the mounting screws requires the use of a tiny screwdriver that fits through the provided hole that isn't mentioned anywhere."
+19515,2,"Hula is Great...but where ARE you, Lisa Shea?","I read Hula a few years ago, and I was looking around on Amazon to see if Shea had written anything else. Hula was such a great read that I want more from this twisted, talented author. Shea captures the story in small moments rather than lengthy, descriptive prose. The characters, especially the father (an incredibly disturbed man suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder) are sometimes difficult to understand, because Shea leaves enough to the imagination to make you wonder...this is a great book for people who do not need their literature spoon-fed to them."

If anyone would be willing to make my a copy (especially with original commercials), I will gladly pay for it. If anyone is able to do this, (...)."
+19517,1,Ambivalent,"I echo Artic Fox's review. I'd just read ""The Mercy of Thin Air"" - also narrated by a dead person - and truly a haunting, moving book. It was clear from the beginning that ""Death of An Ordinary Man"" had a different agenda.It was good enough for me to keep reading it, but only a chapter at a time. The narrative style - while certainly introspective and thought provoking (assuming you are terrifically moved by the book) - was rambling, and I skimmed places. Then I'd have to go back and read it because suddenly I'd be like, ""Whaaaaa?""It didn't really move me, but it was well written for that style. If you really dig the first few chapters, you'll love the book. If you find yourself iffy on it, or bored - you might as well put it down because I doubt it will grab you when you get further in."
+19518,1,Lot's of problems,"I have had the misfortune to work with Vista on my laptop for 2 years. It is very bad, and I have had lot's of problems with programs crashing for no good reason other than running on a Vista PC. Further more the ""blue screen of death"" has teased me many times, and always when I have made something really important (murphy's law I suppose).I have now switched to Windows 7 which seems a lot more stable."
+19519,1,poorly written,I bought the book to prep for the written portion of GRE. I think I got 4.5 out of the written portion but not because of the help of the book.I think it is horribly written. I wish I had not wasted the money on it
+19520,2,Excellent,Was told by a friend to get this book was very informative. Since so many of us today are on medications from doctors which are causing us more harm than ever she told me about home remedies. If they worked back in the days where medicine was not easy to get they used home remedies to heal themselves. I decided with her information on natural remedies to buy this book. I was happy I did. Lets stop making the Pharmacy and doctors rich. Lets do what they did in the old days... and save our lifes.
+19521,1,WASTE OF MONEY,I heard the song on Area 33 - sat. radio and bought this cd thinking that would be the track on it - you would think the version that everyone hears would also be on the cd - right - well WRONG!. None of the 5 versions are the one that is being played - and this version was the best one. I think the artist has totally cheated his fans ( former fans). DO NOT BUY THIS - IT IS A WASTE OF TIME AND MONEY.
+19522,2,Great Book,"The Devil's Dictionary was just as funny as I imagined, and reading out loud the comical definitions of words to my friends earned many chuckles and quite a few times a mysterious disappearance of the book. Funniest book I have recently bought."
+19523,1,Complete?,"I've referred to this book several times over the last couple years and it has offered no help. Norton's book is too general to be of any use. I would rather have five books that cover just a few topics with depth and clarity than one book that skims many topics and helps me with none, like this one."
+19524,1,Needs replacing too fast,"I, too, find that I have to replace the cartridges WAY too fast for the small amount of printing I do -- and cartridges for this model are NOT refillable.I have to replace the magenta and yellow cartridges again, but when they're empty I'm buying a better printer."
+19525,1,I am sorry I bought this,"This is a great idea, and maybe it's the type of bed we have for our son? but this did not work at all and ended up just being a source of frustration. We have a twin bed from IKEA that has 4 posters and flips upsidedown for a ""bunk"" bed when he's older. It was NOT easy to put this rail up and down, and when you're trying to mess around with it after your toddler is in bed it certainly doesn't help them go to sleep! One side of ours just didn't click in easily, and pulling it in and out was also a hassle. Now I'm going to have to buy something else."
+19526,2,Well thought out,"The box is made of molded plastic, which some may see as ""flimsy"" or ""cheap."" Truth be told, this material works well in that it won't rust and is light to carry. The case is well thought out in that you can carry all complimentary tools to your chainsaw within the ample sized case. The side of the case folding out is just genius, this helps with loading the saw into the case immensely. Easy to slide in and the built in tool cutouts are held with fantastic positive resistance.The only down side is that the box is tall. Although, I would never consider that a negative, especially when the large majority of chainsaws never leave the property or garage.Would definitely recommend, it is a very cheap way to protect your saw!"
+19527,2,Works Fine,"Works fine for what it is. I have a lot edging on my property and can get it all done with two batteries. This includes doing more than the ""maintenance edging"" that the manual states this unit is designed for. Next spring I will have to use a real edger and then I imagine the Grass Hog will handle the maintenance edging for another year. The line feed has worked flawlessly. Very happy with the Grass Hog."

+19529,1,Disappointing and odd typesetting,"The book was highly recommended to my twelve year old daughter. Because Annie dislike fantasy and science fiction, I purchased the trilogy based on a brief overview. Annie likes adventure, problem solving, and ""chick flicks"" She adored Legally Blonde and I hoped that : (,"As many other prior users of Prevage MD, I began to get itchy spots--not right away, but after approximately 6 weeks of use. Three spots on my forehead, one along an eyebrow, and one along the side of my nose. This frightened me, given what I had read of the bad experience others had with itching and rashes--I stopped using this product immediately. I have not used Prevage MD for over 4 months. The itchy spots that developed during use of this product calmed down after I quit using it, but they have not gone away. Intermittent itching followed by the spot getting dry and crusty and then peeling--over and over and over again. I have made an appointment with my dermatologist and am hoping for relief. Be careful with this one folks!!!"
+19602,2,"Everything you felt, but would never say","I found this book to be one of the greatest tools in mending a broken heart. Every raw emotion felt and every crazy thought that has crossed your mind through love and heart break is described within the pages of this book. I cannot describe how brilliant I believe this book to be, I only applaud Georgie Nickell for having the courage to expose her own heart and pain for us to read and relate to and to say the things more of us with we could express. Reading this book and all of the experiences she takes you through makes you want to light up with her over a vodka tonic with extra lime! Without a doubt any female old or young who has ever loved and lost would fall in love with book at page one."

It is one of the few albums that I own that I can grab, throw in the car, and know I will want to listen to it. It has everything I want, relentless double bass, cool guitar riffs, good flow, vocal style that works with the music and not against it. On a side note I would recommend this album to anybody who is developing a need for more extreme types of music. Although I prefer the newer albums this is the album that got me interested in Cannibal Corpse."

+19606,2,I love this book!,"The images and words in this beautifully constructed book are tools in building hope through difficult loss. Covered are the loss of someone who has died, the loss of health, relationship endings, career changes or job loss and family stage changes. I have it opened on my desk to different pages that fit different days, where I might want to encourage someone or be encouraged. The photographs are truly poetry in and of itself, blending beautifully with the words."
+19607,1,Do Not Waste Your Money Like I Did.,"I hated it. I watched it the day I got from Amazon (great service-no fault there) and threw it in the garbage after a lame viewing. My first clue should have been the ""winner of 8 New Zealand Academy Awards"" banner. As with most PC movies this one involves, as it's climax, inter-racial sex between a red head and a native New Zealander. If you're not into that sort of thing, don't buy it. This has little to do with ""end of the world"" type action, and more of ""Panic in year Zero meets Jungle Fever"" type crap. Save your money."

Much to my joy, I discovered this book which seems to be one of a kind. It tackles the tough emotional stresses facing unemployment like a sense of isolation, loss of humor and the pressures to find work immediately. It goes beyond the usual how to write a resume or how to give a great interview. It deals with real life scenarios like handling your finances after losing a job, how to interact with your family and friends, and finding ways to have fun for little or no cost. Losing your job is a survivable event. This is a must read book if you are recently unemployed, retired, between jobs or looking for work. It just makes you feel better about yourself and your situation."

However, for those without background in Calculus, you may have some trouble."
+19615,2,Don't miss this book,"I just finished Maybe a Miracle, and there was a lot to love about it. First of all, the protagonist, Monroe is so likeable. He is cynical, perceptive, human, and SMART. I just smiled over and over again at his observations. His character reminded me very much of the protagonist in Time Traveller's Wife which I just adored. Although the subject matter of these two books is entirely different, the tone of the books were similar.I loved the way Brian Strause treated the subject of faith in this country. And I loved watching Monroe's faith emerge in spite of himself.Be cautioned that the first chapter or two feel like this might be a really hokey book but please stick with it until you hear Monroe's voice emerge. He is one of the most likeable characters I've ever come across.I also adored the portrait of his older brother and Monroe's sweet (yet not sappy) relationship with his sister Annika.I can't wait to hear from this author again."

Now, By The Way follows up that huge success with even stronger material. The title track is now inescapable, and theres tons of radio hits on here you'll soon be hearing. Get ready. The Chili Peppers are still red hot."
+19619,2,excellent collection of nautical tales,"I am priviledged to own an original autographed edition of this book. This collection is interesting, compelling, and not at all dated. Mr. Robertson was obviously well schooled in the ways of the career sailor. The author is able to convey his love of adventure to the reader. Of special interest is the last story, Primordial, a complete departure from the author's normal fare. Robertson is well known by Titanic fans as the man who correctly foretold the great disaster, (in his previously published Futility). This collection stands well on it's own merits."
+19620,1,Great theme - terrible book,"I know of the premis of the novel from Hancock's 'Fingerprints of the Gods'and thought the book sounded brilliant. I can't describe the disappointment on reading it. Waffle, over-scientific, no character development, tedious.........zzzzzzzzzz. Only read if you have lost the will to live. It may help you in that final decision"
+19621,1,Low Budget - not like the books,"Hi,i was very disappointed by this DVD Series!If you read the books forget the movies.The battles are looking very unrealistic and there areonly around 100 soldiers.The bridge in this movie is a cheap wood bridge, also there is nosecond battle when the bridge after the bridge has beendestroyed.Even the capture of the eagle is a scene of 2 minutes."

+19623,1,Even fans have to admit that this movie totally sucked!,"The movie had nice special effects, there I said it. But the rest of this was an insult, fart jokes, stupid characters, lame plot points, bad bad bad acting, and overall just a horrible script. The direction of this movie was a joke, obviously they shot a couple takes then assumed the special effects would distract the audience from this ungodly mess."
+19624,1,Wait don't get this DEMAND BETTER!!!!!,-----------2.0 STEREO ?!?!?!?!?!?--------------Had to give 1 star even though I love this film.From what I understand and if true can sum it up: Alliance (the totally crappy Canadian distributer) also owns Echo Bridge who is who bought the rights from Miramax.Also as the other reviewer mentioned this release is in the wrong aspect ratio. The movie was filmed in a 2.35:1 aspect ratio. This Blu-Ray is in 1.78.1 aspect ratio.It is possible both of these things are wrong (2.0 Stereo and Aspect Ratio) but that is how it is listed on the Blu-Ray case in front of me and I'm debating weather I should return it or not so I have not opened it yet.I was so looking forward to this release......bummer.Edit: 2.0 stereo and wrong aspect ratio confirmed see comment.
+19625,1,Ho Hum,"As I read this work there was a nagging feeling in the back of my brain that the whole thing was so familiar to me. So very familiar. . . .Then it hit me! The Kin of Ata Are Waiting for You. This book is a direct repeat of the same ideas that Dorothy Bryant put forth in her work of 32 years ago. I have no doubt that Ms. Morgan is quite familiar with the earlier work.While Bryant's portrayal of the symbolic journey of the soul is told subtly and with rich symbolism, Morgan has a tendency toward redundancy and heavy-handedness.My advice? Skip this one. . .read the real deal. You won't be sorry."
+19626,2,good enough to buy two...or more,"solid stand, assembles in less than an hour and looks great w/ the black finish...the only reason i didnt give it five star rating is because of the third (pivot) wheel. you have an option of in or outboard mount. if you choose outboard you have a 10 inch trip hazard...if you mount inboard you cant step on it to raise and to lower you end up having to bend over and reach underneath to operate.............the solution is to mount inboard then remove the circlip on the pivot rod then reverse the foot pedal facing out..put the circlip back and the assembly is fully operational and accessable without having to bend over for anything and there is no protrusion in the landed position and only 1 inch in the mobile position........hmmmm...i wonder if they put it together backwards at the factory...probably not cuz i bought two and they were both the same.......hey dewalt if yur listening, your foot pedal is backwards"
+19627,1,error laden,"I'm only thru a few chapters and there's alot of typos. Some of the typos are so far off it's incredible. Thank goodness for having the source code with it to see how it works. Only reason I bought this particular title because I need it for school. I hate I bought it. QUE books and the ""Special Edition Using"" series have always been good, but I think they may have rushed this book to press trying to beat others to print. Poor editing. I'm very disappointed."
+19628,2,Smiled the whole way through,"Ok, based on the other reviews the author appears to either tickle your fancy... or not. I enjoyed the book: light-hearted fare, intelligent humor (gotta love the cat), tongue-in-cheek story line, creative characterization, what's not to like? I for one will be reading more of Eric Flint's fun farcical fiction (apologies for that aside). Thanks Eric!"
+19629,2,one of the better seasons,"i thought the series decreased in quality and enjoyability a bit over seasons 2 and 3, even though it was still worth watching, but season 4 took it back up a notch. anybody who enjoyed this series at all will be very likely to be pleased with season 4. i am sorry to see this series end."
+19630,1,Would've been better if...,"I had read ""Sis Boom Bah"" a few months ago and thought it was hilarious. Although a very light read, it was SO funny it kept me in stitches!! Sometimes one needs a break from more literary writing!! :-) But I was disappointed with Cha Cha Cha, not so much because of the story line, but because the language was very crude. That turned me off! I hope her other books are cleaner than this one!"
+19631,2,Beyond The Shackles,"Gripping, passionate, moving - a story of courage and hope when life presented none of the above."
+19632,2,sucks a lot,"I've had this hoover for a month now and love it. Floor has never been cleaner. One small drawback is getting the hose to stand alone. Other than that it's run like a Cadillac. Love the little compartments for the accessories too, so handy!"
+19633,2,DVD some where in time,"Fast shipping. I have not viewed the DVD yet, but shipping was fast with no problems."
+19634,2,Not stable enough,"Big monitor stand! Polished steel looks great. But it's not stable enough when I placed my printer on it, it vibrated a lot when printing..."
+19635,1,Nothing to see here.,"Based on these reviews, I was going to buy the book, but after reading the lastest ABC news headline""Crime Writer RJ Ellory Caught Faking Amazon Reviews""and discovering that he had registerd fake Amazon accounts and giving 5-start reviews to himself and one-star reviews for the books of the other authors he thought were competitors, I have no interest in ready any more Mr. Rj Ellory's books"
+19636,2,Good Price - Good Product,"I was a little wary of buying this toilet paper since I'm used to using super soft stuff, but this really works great. It's not the softest or most absorbent(in comparison to other name brands) but the fact that it's good for the environment and does it's job well, works for me. :)"
+19637,2,really helps,"My husband is allergic to one of my mother's cats and I got him this ionizer so we could have some time with her over the holidays. In the past my guy has been asthmatic by the end of dinner, but we were able to spend substantial time there without him having distress.I agree that the batteries are a bit of a pain- unless you remove or reverse them they run down when the item is not switched on. And the batteries are camera batteries that were not available at all stores, we had to get them at the drug store.It worked for us, just be sure to have spare batteries around."
+19638,2,One of my all time favorite!,"This is the best comedy, romance if seen. All of the characters played their parts the chemistry amoung the actors is great! Kept me interested the whole series."
+19639,1,Disappointed with new formula,I also loved the previous formula - the new styling creme just doesn't work for me. It used to have wonderful hold without feeling at all stiff but now it doesn't give my hair nearly as much body as the old creme did. I wish the company would bring back the old product but I've given up hoping.
+19640,1,Wallace Casino Stainless-Steel Flatware Set,I purchased my set of Wallace Casino Stainless-Steel Flatware and the first thing I noticed after a week or so was that the knives were pitting. I wrote to the company since this product has a 1 year warranty. They said I had washed them incorrectly. I explained that the flatware is supposed to be dishwater safe and the flatware was not washed in any way which voided the warranty. I did not hear from the company after that. I wrote again and they did not answer my letter. The set is beautiful but the knives have problems and the company will not honor their warranty. It is a shame too because as I said the set is beautiful but you cannot set a table with rusty pitted knives.
+19641,1,Awful Beyond Imagination,"I bought this thinking I would at least get a widescreen transfer for the DVD. No such luck. This is a washed out laserdisc rehash that's 4:3 (full frame) instead of 16:9 (widescreen). What a disappointment.(I knew how godawful the movie was, and I knew I'd be getting a DVD-R manufactured-on-demand. None of that deterred me. But I at least thought it would be better than a 20-year-old VHS transfer. THAT's my complaint.)"
+19642,2,Fresh Approach To Familiar Standards,"I've a friend in America to thank for introducing me to Barbara Rosene. Having long collected recordings of the twenties and thirties I was just blown away. Unlike today's lyrics (too distinguished a term, but let that pass) those from that bygone age related to life, and can't just be trotted out. Barbara is the ideal interpreter, putting her remarkable voice at their service. Unlike some of her other recordings (which are well worth seeking out also) the accompaniment does not rely on the original arrangements, thus providing a fresh approach to these familiar standards.PS. What an unfortunate typo in the listing thoughtfully provided by the previous reviewer. Track 7 should read ""Blame It On My Youth""."
+19643,2,It's about time someone wrote this book!,"I've just finished Carl Nichols' extraordinary book which was a gift to me. I am so grateful that he took the time to write this wonderful how-to full of practial advice, thoughts, and values about work, life, loving, creativity, and leadership. Mr Nichols' book is a welcome relief for those of us who do not have the time or experience to articulate these important principles to our kids. I feel like a much better parent just by having read the book, and I actually find myself having more meaningful conversations with the kids now. We're communicating!So thanks, Mr. Nichols, for having the courage and insight to write this extraordinary book. I plan to buy several copies for Christmas presents for my friends."
+19644,1,Mechanical Challenges,"The form factor on this gem is fantastic! However, the adapter will not accept a three prong, grounded plug. The plug will go in after using much force. It worked fine for 2 insertions. After that, the internal fuse blew. The spare was used and the fuse blew again. Finally, I threw the adapter away. I would not recommend it to anyone who wants to use a grounded plug."
+19645,2,"The ""I Don't Know How to Cook"" Book","I can't give a user's total review since I bought this book for my grandson who is a college sophomore. All I can tell you, however, is that he looked through the book and was absolutely delighted with it. He is on his own cooking and after reviewing this book as well as the second book I reviewed and purchased he was absolutely delighted. The other cook book was titled ""A Real Man's Cookbook"". It seemed to me that each book offered something different that would be helpful to him as he learns to survive on his own cooking. I felt that the two books compliment each other.The Real Man's Cookbook: How, When, What and Why to Cook"
+19646,1,Book is missing pages,"This book isnt that great first of all, and its missing pages from 371-378 and pages 395 to 402, i dont know how amazon can sell a book with missing pages"
+19647,2,Nice winter boots.,"I had a pair of these (with the taller ankle) from Cabellas long before UGGs got popular. I loved how comfy they were, but the winter before last they took their last wear. So I had to buy some new ones. These are not as comfy as my old, but they are perfect for me for the price. I like that they are lower on the ankle, because I hate when they are tight on my calves. Although if you have skinny calves, I think the taller boots are much cuter!"
+19648,2,How nice.,"Nice collection of classic Christmas carols nicely sung. The songs are a little briefer than I like, and it's tougher to make out the words in this style, but enjoyable anyway."
+19649,1,Not worth my money,"This book was very outdated (as a few reviewers mentioned already - implying girls stop running at a younger age than boys; referencing products that are not common as if they were). Also, the pictures were not very clear and seemed to show the same thing for different ailments. I work as an engineer for an orthopedics company, specifically focusing on products for the hands/feet, and even I had trouble following the ""illustrations."" The tone of the book was also very condescending."
+19650,2,Same great Spoon sound,"If you liked Gimme Fiction, you'll love Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga. Classic spoon sound with a few twists thrown in."
+19651,2,"Enjoyable, but could use more inn content","This is a lovely little book, with beautiful illustrations and recipes. I very much enjoyed the descriptions of renovating and running the inn and life on the island ... but the author kept going off on tangents about the evils of war, the government, etc!"
+19652,1,Didn't like it,I didn't like this because I couldn't see my son in the mirror. I drive an SUV and I found a bigger mirror instead.
+19653,1,Crappy book ever!,"I hate this book, it made me how to be an utter-snob, dress skanky, downing myself, having low-self esteem, be stupid to people, and be a stuck-up to people. I'm sorry to tell you this, but this is not a good read! Kids & teens, don't buy this crappy book!! Just don't idolize her either! Save your money on age-appropiate books, like Gossip Girl, The A-List novels, Clique novels, It Girl novels, Twilight novels, and Manga. Please, don't buy it!!!"
+19654,1,Rich B from who cares????,I am having surgery in less than a week so I was reading all the books I could find on the subject. When I read this one I was just screaming WHO CARES? The whole book is about this Rich chick from Florida who's husband sells million dollar mansions. She goes threw her experience of weight loss surgery but the whole time she just talks about how she went to this resturarnt or that one. She went to the spa bla bla bla... After she loses her weight (her motto is somthing about food not being better than thin feels?) she decides she wants to have plastic surgery. Not because her pouch is incumberson to her but b/c she wants a total body lift and to spend her rich husbands money. I mean PLU-EEZE who really lives that that?
+19655,2,Good overall,"I like this coffee pot. The only thing is I wish it was not so tall. It fits under my cabinet, but when I have to fill it with water and the coffee grinds, I have to pull it way out so the top that opens, doesn't hit the top of the cabinet. But it does make good coffee."
+19656,2,A MUST SEE,"This is a good movie for anyone interested in the craft to see. It shows both side of magic, the good and the evil....the way one takes it... It is not 100% accurate, but it is close..VERY close."
+19657,2,Brilliant Album,"The Very Best of Elvis Costello was the first album of Elvis Costello that I bought. This album has all of the best songs from Elvis Costello brilliant music career. All in all, I highly recommend this album to anyone who wants to start listening to Elvis Costello music."
+19658,2,"Alabama sends ""Twentieth Century"" out with a bang!","I've listened to Alabama since 1980 and this CD is a ""must have"". There's a lot of new and original material balanced by an intangible familarity. Alabama knows how to make music. Vocals are terrific as well. I especially liked: Twentieth Century, Write It Down in Blue, Little Things, Too Much Love, I Love You Enough to Let You Go. To sum up, Alabama ends the twentieth century with a ""standin' O""."
+19659,1,Another bad fm transmitter...,"Aside from terrible sound quality, the thing doesn't even work half the time I plug it into my iPod. I live in the KC metro area and was able to find a couple of clear channels, but it didn't make any difference. Like someone else said, it works alright when you hold it right up to your radio dials, but if you set it down somewhere so you can drive, it's terrible again. And $40?! Big waste of money.Update: I plugged my iPod into a potato and got the same quality reception. It's kind of hard to match stations, but hey, it's a POTATO!"
+19660,2,KPL,The product arrived within the estimated delivery date. The condition of the product was excellent. Just what I hoped for when I placed the order.
+19661,2,The best Prairie Home shows of every year - you just have to laugh,"I got a cassette tape of the first PHC joke show years ago and just about wore it out from playing it to keep me alert and upbeat on road trips. Now I found this compilation on 4 CDs and I'm laughing more than ever. Sure, there are sophomoric jokes, 3rd grade jokes, puns, groaners and old chestnuts you've heard before, but somehow they all work when presented by Garrison, Roy Blount, Paula Poundstone and the rest. I love it!"
+19662,1,"Cheap, Cheap, Cheap",The painted on finish rubbed off on my hands and stained my cloths. DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT!
+19663,1,Drek,"This film was recently watched by the entire cast of my college play after the leader of the group watched it and was so amazed that he got everyone together and watched it probably to make him feel that he didn't waste his money on the rental. What was scary was his interpretation of the movie and recalling the certain elements. Eventually, after describing the movie to many different people in order to finally get them to come, it went from a bad movie to a gloriously over the top movie. I'm sorry, it's just a terrible movie. That's all I can say. One of the worst excuses to make a film in the history of film. Really bad plot and everything. It's a cheap horror/splatter film without the gusto of a genius like Peter Jackson, when he actually put lots energy into his films instead of making them overbloated bastardized versions of books and cheap Hollywood classic remakes. So please don't see this film."
+19664,1,Junk,This looked like a used puzzle.. it went to goodwill. Box was faded and cracked. It was supposed to be a stocking stuffer but I have a little more pride than that.
+19665,1,Not as good as Cruisers,"I normally buy Pampers Cruisers, I will not buy these again. They seem really cheap, plastic like, I don't like the smell. Yuck, can't wait for the jumbo pack to be done!"
+19666,1,McWhorter should learn grammar,"In only the first chapter of McWhorter's nmew book, I found a half dozen grammatical errors, nor to mention the fact that McWhorter believes that ""artful"" means something that is praiseworthy for being artistic. ""Artful"" means sleazy, sneaky, dishonest. Doesn't this professor of language know that?In addition, there is repeated flouting of the rules on the use of pronouns. Here is a sentence that you must re-read a few times to parse: ""The person who only processes information beyond their immediate purview in nuggets is not educated in any meaningful sense."" What does ""their"" refer to? Is it really what McWhoreter wanted to write?And he commits what this retired copy editor regards as the cardinal sin: ""He might not have even made it off of the lectern.""The ""of"" after ""off"" is a crime. But beyond that, the ""even"" belongs before the ""have."""
+19667,2,A factual and enjoyable book,"After reading the Dan Brown novel, I am extremely happy that someone has finally written a book on the topic that is factual, has a great bibliography and beautiful and related paintings. The book was written in such a way that the author leads you through each section, and each section is fully explored. Great book!"
+19668,2,Great album; good for new and old fans,"You won't take this out of your cd player for days. Good quality Sufjan at his best. This would be good for newer fans as well; it's a good album to get acquainted with his sound and discover why so many love his music. This has the famous ""John Wayne Gacy"" song that has gained popularity."
+19669,2,AWESOME,Buy this product !! it is amazing the picture is unbeleiveable if i could give this product more than 5 stars i would give it 20!! it also had all the stuff u need for playin in the car and at home!! i recommend this product to anyone who has a gamecube (the best console ever ) !! :-)
+19670,2,Go Simpsons,I think the simpsons are awesome.I think Crazy Taxi is fun. Combine them and you get a good game. The storyline is good. The game is fun and has excellent replay value. The graphics are not so good. Don't listen to the reviews that say this game is horrible. For those who don't like Crazy Taxi just rent this game. As for those who enjoyed Crazy Taxi tis is a must buy.(...)
+19671,2,A truly feel good book,"I really enjoyed this book. I loved how it was written entirely from emails, letters, IM conversations, and other such notes. Very different in style from most books.The story of Rosie and Alex made me feel like I really knew them, and I could totally see myself in Rosie's role. I had a best friend like that at one point in my life, but we did eventually drift apart unfortunately.My only criticism is that it ended where it did. I would like to have seen at least one more chapter after the book's epilogue chapter.Overall though, a very enjoyable read! I would definitely recommend it to others."
+19672,1,More Howlers,"Found another serious error in this book: on page 75, the four layers of the TCP/IP protocol suite are defined as ""Application, Transport, Internet and Network"". On page 505, the the four layers of the TCP/IP protocol suite are defined as ""Application, Transport, Network and Link"". Gosh, hope that's not on the exam...."
+19673,1,My $10.00 grinder out performs this model,"I spent the extra money for the burr grinder.It's not worth it! The grind is very inconsistent and produces a great deal coffee""dust"" that clings and clumps to the plastic container.I'm going back to the simple blade grinder. Maybe I can use this for spices or herbs."
+19674,2,The best,This is my favorite. It is very hard to find but it smells wonderful and has sparkle to it.
+19675,2,Fantastic Movie,"This film definitely deserved all it's academy awards. This movie is amazing from start to finish and Russel Crowe does an amazing job portraying an intelligent man struggling with such a debilatating mental illness. This film will definately pull on your heart strings and get you inside Nash's mind and what it might have been like to be him. You also get to see the brillance of this man who won a Nobel Peace Prize. The special features add to the movie, answering some questions that the viewer still may have.If you end up enjoying this movie, I highly recommend checking out the book as well. It's just as engrossing. I absolutely love this movie. But be prepared to tear up during the movie! Every time I watch it I do."
+19676,1,Beware: one of the worst set of computer games ever,"The description of the game is great, it makes you want to buy it. Do not let the advertising trick you. The games are very poorly designed, bad graphics. Most games are from the early 90's. I contacted the manufacurer after I installed the games and requested an explanation on why they sell old games as brand new, never got an answer. A waste of money!"
+19677,1,Living in Recovery,"I bought this tape to show in alcohol and drug classes. After reviewing the tape, I realized I could not show it to my class, because it has a somewhat racial undertone. Not a good film at all to show to a wide range of individuals."
+19678,2,7 episodes in Series 2,"Love the series! The PBS broadcast of Series II actually contains 7 episodes total -- all 4 episodes from UK ""series 2"" and 3 episodes (out of 4) from UK ""series 3.""

+19680,2,One word springs to mind... Addictive...,All the words I can think of that describe this game:Cool Exciting Addictive Mind-Bending Crazy Increased-Blood-Pressure Wicked Graphics StunningShall I go on? Or leave you to buy the game yourself...
+19681,2,Works very well,"like the product, does what it's suppose to do, can get a little messy with overspray, that is why i did not give it 5 stars...other than that small issue, I am happy with this item."
+19682,1,better options,"maybe i'm just too optimistic about the music business, but this book is a bummer. just is not a fun read. if you want a good scope of the music industry, go with donald passman's book instead"
+19683,1,SHORT AND ANNOYING!,"This is not a dvd you can watch over. The first 5 minutes is a replyay of a guy jumping off a pole and it goes over and over. Some of the skateboarding is cool but nothing great. The only cool things are the 2 live tracks from the rain festival which are awsome and the bonus live preformance of kids arnt alright. Staring at the sun live and lapd live are annoying, tiny club venue which is neat but there is heaps of stupid video effects going on distorting nearly all the picture. The dvd is onyl about 30 minutes long not including the cridits. And you get very sick of it quickly.The only funny thing is in meet the crew bonus feature when daneil johns from silverchair makes out with one of the offsprings roadie guys.Anyway dont buy this dvd, it sucks ass apart from about 6 minutes of decent live footlage."
+19684,2,Rosalinda is a great serial,"I think that rosalinda is a very great serial, because it is about something romantic and something you love."
+19685,1,Worn music,"The Infamous Stringdusters have great instrumental musicianship but they have little to offer that hasn't been done before. I find the long drawn out vocals particularly cliché and a bit heavy handed. I guess I just expected this young group to be younger and have something new to say, of which they really don't. If you want Blue Highway then just buy their music."
+19686,1,Lame. Not worth your money.,"My amazon record shows that I actually bought this book. I had forgotten, and 'returned' it to the public library, which is where I wish I'd gotten it to begin with. The story is strained and not very informative. Great math books worth buying to read to your child include Math Trek, Math Trek 2, G is for Google, and especially, the Number Devil - reading great math books has been wonderful fun for my family - but not Sir Cumference."
+19687,2,You will sleep better!,We really appreciate having this monitor. It is worth the money. The sensor works really well and having two monitors makes it easy for both of us to listen in. The sensor immediately picks up when our daughter is out of her crib so remember to turn it off first or the alert will sound! It definitely helps us to sleep especially with SIDS and all of the other cautions.
+19688,2,Love love love,"This movie has always been one of my favorites. Great story, great price, great everything. Was very happy to find a copy for a reasonable price."
+19689,1,not worth it,This is definatly not worth the money they sell it for. Though they were in great condition when I got them the product itself is very flimsy. These would be great for kids just learning the art but I would not recommend them for adults or tournament use as the light material makes technique look sloppy
+19690,2,Almost uncut,"As a previous posting revealed, the opening scene is cut by a few seconds when Bergen & Bisset climb the stairs to the train platform. Why? A few words of dialogue that helped build the background of the story were therefore lost. Unless the master was damaged in that spot, Warner have no excuse for editing this film on DVD. Aside from that, it is a great DVD and the parts that many people, myself included, were worried may be cut are not. The two extras are nice, and if it wasn't for that stupid little edit by Warner, I would rate it 5 stars."
+19691,1,Did not work on white bugs!,Smells peppery but did not do anything to the white little bugs on my plants.
+19692,2,Great Price,"This is a old, and hard to find at a resonable price book. I am happy with the condition, and very happy with the price I purchased it for."
+19693,2,I am smarter than I thought I was!,"For those of you with 1500 on your SAT's and a 4.0 in school...good for you! But apparently, I, the average student, am just as intelligent. And if I can read this book, I must be REAL smart because it was not easy reading!I used this book to make a case for a 3.1 student with 1000 on her GRE's to get into graduate school. E.I. is one of the best books out there and every parent should read it."
+19694,1,where's the beef,"i have now read two of spark's novels and my disappointment will prevent me from reading a third. as others have stated, this book is just a cheap knockoff of ""the bridges of madison county"". why would an author write such a poor copy of a good story? my theory is that good old saint nick is in it for the dough. he put just enough sweet sentimentality in the story to lure in the hopeless romantics who believe that a few days of love and romance at the beach can change us into new creatures and solve all of our problems - past, current, and future. oh that life were that simple!!! you may have fooled some people, nickie, but you can't fool me."
+19695,2,Black lab loves her black blanket,"The black pet blanket I purchased is perfect in color, size and softness. My lab loves it and the color hides her shedding of Black hair. I'd recommend this to anyone looking for a blanket for their dark haired pet."
+19696,1,Exploitation of a tragedy,"I refuse to see this film. I am offended that so many people feel that it is in any way respectful to anyone impacted by the events of 9/11. It is a typical Hollywood scheme to get rich off of something that should never be considered for profit, particularly since so little time has passed. One might point out that profits were donated to charities, but what is left out is that it was 10% of profits from the first five days the film was open in theaters. This means that 90% of profits (as in everything on top of the ridiculous salaries for most involved) go straight to the pockets of Paramount Studios. At least Cage donated a decent chunk to the Red Cross. I for one refuse to contribute to such a blatant exploitation of thousands that died."
+19697,1,Little Tiny Pieces That Don't Hold Their Glow,"This item came in the mail and my 4 year old son and I were very excited. I guess we should have read the description more carefully because I wasn't expecting so many tiny little pieces. We used ticky tack and began the tedious process of sticking the different sized stars and such all over his room. We waited that night to see the glowing celestial extravaganza. We kept the light on for some time to 'charge' the glow in the dark element then turned off the light. What we found was nothing close to amazing. The glow was fairly dim and only lasted for a very short period of time. We even turned a blacklight on them and all that did was make them glow a little brighter but, again, the glow only lasted about 10 -15 minutes. I ended up going back online and buying glow in the dark paint and a star shaped sponge. We dabbed stars all over his ceiling. These glowing stars last most of the night and our friends and family think his room is really cool."
+19698,1,Broke after 2nd day,"Jack in the box broke within 2 days of light use by 2 yr old. Amazon was great, returned shipping prepaid and money credited to charge card."
+19699,1,Not Really Yoga,"This workout video is a joke and Jillian is not good as a yoga specialist. Jillian is good at aerobics and such; I very much enjoyed 30 Day Shred. But Yoga Meltdown is horrible. There are two levels, I did the first and did not break a sweat nor get a good stretch; the moves were quite spastic.Have not yet tried the second level as the first level was a joke. Maybe I will try it after the shock of this first experience wears off. However, let me tell you if you are looking for a real yoga experience look elsewhere, and if you are looking for Jillian's powerhouse aerobics try her other workouts. She is no good in this one and really should stick to what she knows and that ain't yoga!"
+19700,1,Don't Buy,"You cannot learn how to snowboard without actually being out on the hill and actually putting ideas into action. Take lessons on the hill, don't bother buying this book. I've been snowboarding for a few years and am fairly good, this book did not improve my riding anymore than one more day on the hill improves my riding. my suggestion...instead of buying this book to get better, take a lesson. If you can already ride fairly good, instead of buying this to get better, simply go shred as much as you can, try a few new things (such as rails, jumps, and powder) and you will get better."
+19701,1,Do not buy this keyboard for a BlackBerry,"I have a BlackBerry Curve 8320 and got this keyboard to use with the device. It does not work with the new OS 4.5 for BlackBerry. I called tech support for iGo and they said they do not and will not support it. They suggested I search on the web for a hack driver that someone might post. This is not the kind of tech support that a reliable company would give! Also, I have not been able to find any after market software to make it work. Avoid...."
+19702,1,Why Bother?,"This is yet another re-compilation of the bad pseudo-Supremes recordings done by two former members and two never were members. While the vocals are passable, this cd would never have been released if not to cannibalize the Supremes name. Stick a real Motown recording if you want the Supremes - that's where the REAL SUPREMES CAN BE FOUND - ON MOTOWN!"
+19703,1,"I love a mystery, but not this one","Scottish author John Ward writes in a style common to occultist books. The language in THE SECRET OF THE ALCHEMIST is continental, some terms would doubtless be unfamiliar to most readers. There also is some vulgarity. I found hints of sexuality and depravity. In one scene, a woman is drugged, then her young daughter is stolen from her. She is doused with alcohol so that the police will think her a drunkard, and her story of her child's abduction to be merely the ranting of a street person.Though a book source I found said the book was for readers 9-12, I would not give this novel to anyone under the age of fourteen or fifteen. Even if they could wade through the obscure language and literary references, the overall dark tone of the book is not for younger readers. NOT RECOMMENDED. Caution for some language and adult content."
+19704,2,Like it a lot,"The price was great, the gun has nice sound...my 7-yr-old's only complaint is that it should be a 2-pack since Jango uses 2 guns."
+19705,1,disappointed,"Sorry, but this is not what I expected, as it was advertised as cross-over/pop...still a little too heavy opera sounding for me. I prefer clearer voices,less instruments. It left me not yearning for more.After playing it through,it was so bland,I didn't realize it had ended.Sorry,I wanted to like it."
+19706,1,not for hardwood floors,"I do not recommend this vac for hardwood floors (or any floors for that matter). i've owned it for 2 years and I can barely use it because it's so noisy and unruly to use. It's rather spastic on carpet and rugs. the power brush is waaay to powerful, and ended up dragging me around the floor. also cheap construction -- not a long lasting product. it's inexpensive b/c it's not worth it."
+19707,1,Didn't work...Seller didn't respond to emails.,"THe item didn't work and several attempts to the manufacturer, seller, and Amazon (including an email to Jeff Bezos) went without any help. Needless to say I'm no longer an Amazon Customer nor will I ever be again."
+19708,1,"Beware, Never worked. Nice piece of garbage.","After reading all the reviews, I decided to take the risk and order this player in the 2 Gb version (e250).The player was nice in outside, I get to my house open the box, charged the player and.... nothing happened.The player started and after the San Disk Logo, it went into a black screen. I follow all the instructions on the FAQ in the San Disk web site, and in the instruction book in the included CD.After reseting the player it alternates between a black screen and a stripped one. The player never worked.I packed everything and will send it back to Amazon. I will ask for a refund and I will buy an iPod from my local retailer.It's a shame, it was a nice player"
+19709,2,Earth's Children Series,As a non reader I was introduced to this series of books by afriend. Until that moment I had limited myself to fact and educationalreading. I was thouroughly immersed into their lives almost picturing myself there. What a wonderful series of books and I await the release of the next.
+19710,1,review of blush with death,"i love easy reading mysteries....this book and author has all the potential but disappointed me with ""blue"" words, and sex scenes that really didn't need to be put in..i was very sad that it was in the story line...i won't buy the series...too bad i loved the idea of the character's skill in aromatherapy"
+19711,2,great product,"This is a great time saver and well worth the money. It is easy to put on and take off. I recommend getting 2 so, when one is in the wash the other is put on the crib."
+19712,1,Disappointed,"I tried these gloves and one other brand. Both were a disappointment. I am using an ointment that seems to work better. My hands feel better after exercise, but these gloves keep them stiff and don't allow enough movement."
+19713,1,"Therapeutic for the author, but too fluffy for the reader","The author wrote this booklet and drew the illustrations to help her work through her depression. I'm glad it helped her, but I found it to be an extremely thin and repetitious ""don't give up."" That's an important message for people suffering through depression, but I found no insights worth holding on to."

+19716,1,Not worth,"This headset is supposed to work with cellphones and other sources of audio over bluetooth.Well, if I can just ""hear"" that audio that's not good enough. The sound quality is pretty bad when I connect to my computer and play music.2 stars are for ease of setup and average audio quality when used with cell phone."
+19717,2,"Title of this game says it all-""UNREAL""","I usually don't buy shooter games of this type, but with the 5.5 GB install, I couldn't help but wonder what it would be like. And I WAS NOT DISAPPOINTED!!This is the BEST game I have EVER played! The graphics are simply ""UNREAL."" The best graphics I've ever seen in any PC-Game.Game play is very smooth, and I am impressed by the amount of levels the player can play through, which always gets better and better, crystal clear graphics that are always sharp no matter how far in you zoom, and the amount of extras that's on the second DVD; which shows how to create your own levels, vehicles, etc. All of it is step-by-step video tutorials; There's nothing this game lacks!To sum it up, this is simply AMAZING! I never get tired of playing, and it is very ADDICTIVE!To anyone who hasn't played Unreal Tournament, or don't generally buy shooter games of this type, BUY THIS GAME NOW; You won't be disappointed!"
+19718,1,One slight problem,"Looks great, solid construction, powerful...everything I wanted with one slight problem.The wand has an electrical plug at each end - one for the power head and one for the handle and they both should be on the same side of the wand BUT the one I got has one on each side of the tube. That means I'd either have to have the powerhead upside down or the handle upside down. Called the phone # Hoover recommends and talked with a very nice person who tried to duplicate my problem and finally decided I'd have to take it in for repair. Repair? it's brand new. Nearest Hoover approved person is an hour and half away and when I called they said 2 weeks because they outsource repairs and they would drive it 6 hours further. Now I'm wondering if I can somehow get it back in the original box, etc. etc. etc. If I could use the vacuum it might have received 5 stars but now?"
+19719,2,Perfect!,"I absolutely love this book. I read it while on vacation and couldn't stop laughing out loud. My cousin made me promise to let her read it next. lol Anyway, I loved the dark and handsome Ben. I loved the humorous dialogue and the wonderful characters. So modern and...well..just wonderful. I could relate to Sofia on so many levels and yet it was nice to have her be a little wild and spontaneous. I would definately recommend this to anyone who wants to start reading romances, or even to those readers who love Fabio novels!"
+19720,1,too concise to have any practical use!,"If you just what to dabble in the surface of some topics in Java, read it; otherwise, look elsewhere. It tries to cover all, but actually offers a too brief intro. which is of nearly NO practical use at all: what's the point of listing all those methods? I've already had the doc.; it uses deprecated methods, e.g. in network part; it even can not explain UTF well...Bye-bye, I sell it right away."
+19721,2,I've been living on chocolate ice-cream,"Dramarama's unterestimated and underrated brilliance stuns me. They are the masters of dreamy, wistful and sad. While this album does, indeed, provide just a slice of the Dramarama experience (check out ETC, on the first album, for example- it really should have made it on to the Best Of), it is a fairly meaty slice and a reasonably satisfying one."
+19722,1,Have a purpose,I guess they should have a purpose. I just haven't found out what it is. Not really worth the money. They can't do much.
+19723,1,Not worth two weeks of fun,We bought this for our 4 year old daughter and 18 month old son. It was great fun at first but the top ring sprung a hole after a couple of days. Not a huge deal. Just made it easier to get in and out of. Within a week of that the seam in the bottom split wide open. My children are on the small side. My daughter in about 35 pounds. It was fun while it lasted but was NOT built to last.

+19726,1,LCD failed,"A nice unit that I enjoyed using, but after a few months several segments of the LCD failed. I can sort of make out the proper digits so, while it is frustrating, it has not rendered the unit unusable. Had I reviewed this unit before it failed, I would have given it 4 stars. Two stars is the best I can do for a faulty display."
+19727,1,I've heard enough of Will Ferrell...,"I loved anchorman when it came out; it was hilarious. Talladega nights was almost as funny, but he's just gotten unfunny because he does the same thing all the time. Yell stupidity.I bought this because it has a good collection of songs and that was all. it's a soundtrack.what the product description doesn't tell you is that Will Ferrell babbles at the beginning of every track. Now I have to go edit each of the sound files to delete his useless, unfunny commentary at the beginning of the songs I wanted to hear.I just wanted to warn people so they don't make the mistake I did."
+19728,1,tasteless arrangements,"Peter Huttlinger has technique, that's for sure. But I like none of his arrangements on this DVD. His style doesn't make me want to play like him. He plays very fast... but so what? To me, his music says nothing. It's empty. Homespun has another DVD entitled ""Arrangements in Fingerstyle Guitar"" with Muriel Anderson. It's far better than Peter's even though her playing on it sounds sloppy at times. It's not like her. She's usually a perfect guitarist. She must have been in a hurry to finish the filming."
+19729,2,good introductory ethics book...,"Need this book for ethics class. Book is very easy to understand, way better than other ethics books I have read."
+19730,1,Didn't work for me,I ended up having to return this fan as it was too noisy. The speeds did not adjust low enough and it never ossilated properly.
+19731,1,Boring,"This seems more like the writing of a mildly talented high school student than a polished piece of writing. The composition is immature and strained. I found it boring, set it down, and doubt I will ever finish it."

+19733,1,"""Brain"" Dead?","A towering monmument to mediocrity. With the exception of a handful of first-rate ads (Designing Eye furniture, Discovery Channel, The Peabody Hotel), the creative showcased in ""Brain Darts"" is devoid of wit, daring or originality. It's second rate stuff that doesn't begin to compare with the breakthrough work routinely created by fellow Miami agency Crispin Porter & Bogusky. I can't believe they honestly believed the ads for Bet Shira, Bacardi and Multivision - to mention just a few - actually merited publication in a book. This shows a shocking lack of judgement on the part of the authors."
+19734,2,Old questions are finally answered,"The Last Precint is the most recent installment in the Kay Scarpetta series. Even though this book is grouped with the others, it is quite different. It is written in the present tense which may be distracting until you get into the story. The Last Precinct shows Kay having to face old wounds and deal with new blows that are dealt. Kay has to question which friends she can trust and who may stab her in the back. Kay is given a much more human side in this novel instead of the tough no-nonsense chief medical examiner that we usually see. The Last Precinct will see some old questions answered and new questions develop. This is very much a pivotal novel in the series. I'm very interested to see what Patricia Cornwell dreams up for Kay after this novel."
+19735,2,It's not about matching tiles-it's about playing MahJong!!!!,"Matching tiles is an okay game and this allows you to play that if you want, but if you think that is playing mah jong, it's not. However, this game lets you play the real thing. It is fabulous!!! You can program the new card in each year(the card editor is easy to use)and you can play the real game against the computer. Or, if you want, you can use the card that comes with the game. It is the American Mah Jong League card and it is out of date. If you want an up to date card or you play with the National Mah Jong League card then you have to program it or look for it on the internet. I play the real game with actual tiles and people,with friends each week (you need a total of at least 4 to play) but in between I love playing the computer game. In addition, you can allow your opponents to be pushovers, okay players, or masters of the game. I highly recommend this game."
+19736,2,Useful tool; but all parts of pack don't fit in supplied bag,"Useful tool. I bought the 3rd hand contractor pack thinking that the bag would be useful to put away everything in the pack, in one place. Turns out that the four units do not fit in the bag - the bag is too small. No way for the four supplied UniversalFOOT (UniversalFEET?!)to fit in there. Would have been nice if they had made the bag bigger so you could actually get all the stuff in, and conveniently.The 3rd Hand is a 5, but this rating is overall for the contractor pack, since the bag is of no use to me."
+19737,2,Honestly a great book,"I loved the book, and was completely impressed by her ability to form extremely complex characters. I would recommend this to anyone."
+19738,1,Makes one sore into two!!!,"There aren't many positives to give about this product, except that it does provide pain relief. But here are the negatives:* The patches are thick, like an old aspirin tablet* The patch can and will stick to your teeth* Both times I tried this product, my canker sore multiplied into two!* While it does create a clear gel patch after a while, it's just too thick.The best products I have tried for canker sores are Canker Melts and Rincinol. They're not perfect by any means, but much better than this product. I also switched to SLS free toothpastes (Burt's Bees and Pronamel) and have had far fewer canker sores."
+19739,1,"Could work, it didn't for me","It didn't work for me, I may have not be that persistent and regular in using this auto-suggestion, whish you more success if you decide to buy the product..."
+19740,1,Important information is obscure or simple not included.,"The important information is lost in words, screen prints and file prints. It is hard to determine what is important except by the review questions and the questions sometimes cover material not even mentioned in the text. For example the answer to one question is DDL which is only presented in the glossery. I'm going to have to find another book to prepare for the test."
+19741,1,"Good idea, bad delivery","The idea of this story seemed so cool that I had to read it. However, the writer takes so long setting up the story and then everything moves so sluggishly.... Good characters and great idea but should have been a short story."
+19742,1,HORRIBLE video quality....buy for audio only....,okay...sounds like a great interview but watching will make you sick...every time Craig or Kevin moves there is ghosting of the image...its really and truly stomach turning. Too bad because it sounds like a great interview....I'm not sure if its crappy authoring to DVDR ...that format certainly doesn't come with those problems. This is like the early early video drag without the faded color.
+19743,2,Great trap.,"We had squirrels chewing window sills bird houses and just being a pain in the neck. I caught and released twenty two of them and let them go out in the country and now life is good (:Havahart 1025 Live Animal Two-Door Squirrel, Chipmunk, Rat, and Weasel Cage Trap"
+19744,2,"Keep hearing ""Here's Love""","I was recently in a production of Meredith Wilson's ""Here's Love"" as a Macy's clerk. Having my first real line EVER in a show in it, I missed the ""Plastic Aligator Song"" on the soundtrack. My favorite song remains ""She Hadda Go Back"" because it reminds me of Prof. Harold Hill and his salesman voice. I think ""Here's Love"" is a great play to be in, and lots of fun to watch, so this CD is a great way to hear some of the music! ""This Famous Plastic Aligator's guarrenteed for life! It'll swim like a fish, blow like a whale, pour you a beer or a ginger ale, wriggleing around from head to tail! Buy one today!"""
+19745,2,This is a really good city sim/strategy game,I guess I've had it about a month. I read all the reviews before buying Caesar IV and was a bit worried about bugs and graphics requirements. I have a three year old Pentium 4 3.0 ghz processor with a half gig of RAM and a Geforce 7600 256 mb video card. The game runs fine on the factory default settings. I have not felt the need to look at or adjust them. The game great and plays perfectly. No crashes or video problems at all. I have not played online yet. I have played this game for hours without realizing how long it's been. It is thoroughly engrossing. I knocked it one star due to the time it takes to load up. Could be my machine though as my kids have put all kinds of online junk that may be slowing it down.
+19746,1,unreadable,"this guy definitely makes an important point: that the germans were antisemites for 100 years before hitler, and wanted to kill the jews for 50 years before. i really wanted to get through it, but his writing style is unreadable. he insists on painstakingly defining every simple term he uses and the result is such slow going that one loses the thread of his argument, the momentuum just sags and falls. i gave up after 150 pages that should have been 30. the last straw was a para that definied 'ideals', 'intentions', and 'policies' and demonstrated in what order they usually occur, followed by another one that essentially said that the solutions to the 'jewish problem' resulted from trying to solve the 'jewish problem'. ive never thrown a book away but his one might kick it off."
+19747,1,Horrible Quality Assurance.,"My original drive was dead on arrival. I had it repaired via the RMA process which was smooth other than the fact that you don't receive updates and one day the drive just shows back up.They didn't indicate what was wrong or what they fixed, and now 3 weeks later the same drive is dead again. And it isn't my laptop because I've tried it on 3-4 different computers and operating systems, USB 1.1 & 2.0 each time I've had a problem.Until this drive I've always bought Western Digital and been happy, I've learned my lesson for buying cheap."
+19748,2,Great Camcorder,"This thing rocks, the only negative is the motor noise, but it is only noticeable when you first get it, you hardley even hear it while playing the footage on a TV. Also glad Canon has kept using the same batteries, makes it easy to purchase more and a lot cheaper too. You can't go wrong with this camcorder."
+19749,2,Charming,I have only recently been introduced to the charms of Mouse and Sister and have totally fallen for the Southern Sister's mystery series. They have got to be the most unlikely pair of sleuth's that I have encountered. Not only do they keep you on your toes quessing but can make you laugh along the way.Patricia Anne and Mary Alice have been invited to the opening night of a new art exhibit featuring The Outsiders art work. Accepting the invitation sets off a chain of events that neither sister could possibly have imagined. Dead bodies seem to be popping up everywhere as well as past students from Patricia Anne's days of being a teacher. Mouse and Sister's off beat methods of solving the murders makes this a truly enjoyable book that has left this reader wanting more.
+19750,1,Not even a 1!,"Very pretentious look at how film people behave when doing their thing. There are far better examples out there (Day for Night comes to mind). The movie would have been barely passable thanks to the presence of William H. Macy (always great) or Sarah Jessica Parker (playing the role of a bad actress very, very well). However, the insufferable dialogue between Rebecca Pidgeon and Philip Hoffman ruins the movie. I could not get over how affected these characters were. Do people REALLY talk to each other that way? This movie gets a zero in my book."
+19751,1,This trimmer is pretty good.,"This trimmer performs much like a gas powered trimmer--at the cost of one, too. It is pretty good--but pricey. Because is is so expensive, I cannot say it is a ""5 star"" value. It trims grass well."
+19752,2,a classic,"This is a must-read for any Westerner interested in Thai Buddhism. Randall's account of Wat Paknam-style jhana meditation is excellent.However I think many Buddhists would agree that this style of meditation leads to the attainment of jhana (absorption states) but NOT enlightenment or nibbana. The latter comes only from satipatthana vipassana, as explained in the Maha-Satipatthana Sutra. Concentration techniques such as those taught by Ven Phra Mongkhon Thepmuni are valuable prepatory techniques for more advanced vipassana methods. They produce calm and concentration in a person, but not enlightenment."

+19754,2,Mind Blowing DTS Sound !!,"Watching this movie in DTS 6.1 surround sound is truly an amazing experience. I already had a single DISC edition of this movie, butwhen two-disc edition was released, I couldn't resist myself andadded it to my collection."
+19755,1,Sound Health Sound Wealth,"This book is another self-help book. I enjoyed the book HOWEVER, IT LOST SOME CREDIBILITY WHEN I read the last sentenced, in the first paragraph of page 171 of Chapter Six, The Principle of Sound and Light. It reads:""In the physical world of matter, Sound precedes Light, as we know from hearing the thunder before we see the lightning in a storm. *****Maybe, I am confused, but, I see lightning FIRST and start the ONE ONE THOUSAND count down to hear the thunder and determine how far away the storm is."

+19758,1,Failed After 2 Uses,"I would not recommend. Master should remove its name from this product. Being plastic, it feels very fragile. I imagine anyone could smash it with a hammer. The locking mechanism ceased to function after 2 uses."
+19759,1,Tension terrible,"I am returning the machine after three days of use. There is no way to adjust the lower thread tension, and it is too loose to make the machine usable. I am sewing on basic cotton scraps, but the tension is so loose, even after repeated adjustments, that the seams will not hold. Very disappointed."
+19760,2,Great purchase!,This knife holder is very durable and easily holds and entire block worth of knives. Was easy to hang and has helped reduce clutter on our kitchen counter. We love it and have already recommended it to many of our friends.
+19761,2,Required for heavy chaining and most distortion pedals,"Boss lives up to its namesake with this pedal. For situations where you are chaining several pedals and experience excess noise, or where you are using heavy distortion pedals - this pedal just like the other folks have said will make your noise vanish. This will be a required pedal for most guitarists. It is an expensive pedal but well worth the investment if you want to save your ears and your sanity."
+19762,2,Rob Tyner Band - 'Rock And Roll People' (Captain Trip),"Great sounding archive performance from the late ex-MC 5 vocalist. Taken from two different gigs in the spring / summer of 1977. After listening to the interview, you discover these concerts were thirty-minute sets that took place mostly at auto shows. Actually, this disc's first gig was cut short by security because the crowd was getting to wild. What a bunch of lame asses. Nonetheless, this Japanese import really cooks! Opens with a Stones cover ""19th Nervous Breakdown"" and a Chuck Berry tune ""Back In The USA"". I was kind of impressed with some of Tyner's solo material, like ""Out Of My Hands"", ""Taboo"" and ""Penny Candy"". Rest assure,there are two MC 5 scorchers present ""Kick Out The Jams"" and ""Looking At You"". Overall,a very good sound mix. Aimed pretty much toward collectors and MC 5 completists. However, might STILL appeal to fans of the Deviants, Stooges, Pink Fairies, Blue Cheer and maybe The Melvins."

+19764,2,The Best House/Dance Comp I ever bought,"I picked up this CD last week because of the strong and interesting track list, and was in for quite a surprise! Usually dance comp CDs are poorly mixed and use versions of the songs that I don't like. This CD was amazing. The first Disk has many familiar funky dance and club hits, and the second disk is a bit deeper without getting boring. The diamond in the rough, however is the immaculate mixing featured on the CD. I have never heard such an outstanding mix compilation. It moves well from track to track, and has some very unique and technically great mixes. I highly recommend this comp to any one who enjoys good house music!"
+19765,1,Oh my! Terrible quality!,"I have purchased many items from Amazon. This is the first product that I have received that was of poor quality. This flute does not keep pitch, tune or general sound quality. It is an insult to Native American Flute making. I recommend that this product be removed from the Amazon list of products."
+19766,2,Great little desk!,"If you have a small space, this is a great little desk. It is simple to put together. Once together it is a sturdy desk. For the money it can't be beat! P.S. Amazon had it to me in two days which was a bonus."
+19767,1,Not satisfied,I didn't like the way these tasted. They have an artificial aftertaste. I also think an artificially flavored frosting with sprinkles of artificial dye is not a healthy choice for children (and it even doesn't make the tarts taste better). I'm eating them all so my toddler won't have to!
+19768,2,Sony MDR-IF240RK Wireless Headphone System,"Good headphones for TV listening. Inexpensive, no noise interference. Relatively narrow reception range as expected from infrared (IF) but certainly enough for TV. Headphones don't go over the whole ear but the pads are soft and comfortable. Can turn it on and off easily, recharges automatically. Overall an excellent buy."
+19769,1,LAME,"Do not buy this book. Unless you need to be able to laugh about your inability to ""talk dirty"" with your partner. This book was a complete and total waste of time and money."
+19770,2,Lorenzo Lamas at his best!!!!!,"This television series offered plenty of action every episode. Lorenzo Lamas plays police officer,Reno Raines, on the run for being framed for the murder of his fiance by Lt. Dutch Dixon (played by series creator Stephen J. Cannell). Under the alias of Vince Black, he works for Bobby Sixkiller (played by Branscombe Richmond), as a bounty hunter. Joined by Sixkiller's sister Cheyenne Phillips, (played by then wife of Lorenzo Lamas Kathleen Kinmont),they capture fugitives and help keep Reno Raines from the clutches of Lt. Dixon. The series ran from 1992-1997, with the final season as an USA original cable series. Kathleen Kinmont was not in the final season due to her and Lorenzo Lamas getting a divorce. Each episode was exciting and well paced. There is a lot of martial arts, shoot-outs, and chases in this series. Lorenzo Lamas even directed an episode of the series during its run. This series is long overdue to come to home video and is highly recommended."

The bass is so boomy, distorted, muddy, its just not good at all. the speakers sound like they are in a tin can and they are screechy. these are the just the worst speakers i've had and i've had lots. i bought these at my local fred meyer not from amazon so i took them back them back right after i put them back in the box. i had 3 watt altec lansing 2.0 speakers that sounded better than these. do not buy them. i recomend the altec lansing xa3021'sthey are cheaper and sound so much better and good quality and the bass is excellent. these cyber acoustics not recomended ever."
+19772,2,"Their best, most consistent, most honest work in years.","Wow. After a lackluster effort, bilingual, ""Nightlife"" proves that PSB are still a fresh, innovative force in the industry. This album is more accesable than their last. I also agree with the person who wrote that it rates with Behaviour and Very. From the seemingly Stevie Wonder/Coolio ""Gansta's Paradise"" inspired ""Happiness is an Option"" to dancier tunes like ""Closer to Heaven"" and ""NYC Boy"" it's got a fantastic mix. And the lyrics in ""Vampires"", ""Only One"" ""You Only... Drunk"" and especially ""In Denial"" show how much the Boys are still growing. This is already one of my favorites for 1999, without question."
+19773,2,Motivating and Inspiring!,"I am currently a student journalist majoring in Communications. When I began reading this book, I was almost ready to give up on my career and my education. This book literally changed my whole perception of my life! I absolutely love this book! Being a young African-American woman from the same type of background as Ben Carson, I realized that if I focus on my faith and my God-given talents I could do anything I want. I strongly recommend this book to anyone who needs a little motivation. I am now enjoying school and reading more inspirational books. My next book will be Think Big by Ben Carson."
+19774,2,THIS CD IS GREAT,"I LOVE IT FROM BEGINNING TO END, IT HAS SOME FAST PACED WORK OUT MUSIC WITH JUST THE RIGHT SOUND. AT FIRST I DID NOT RECOGNISE HARDLY ANY NAMES SO I THOUGHT IT WAS GONNA SUCK BUT I WAS DEFINATELY WRONG. THIS IS SOMETHING YOU BLAST ON THE RADIO."
+19775,1,"ok, but there is a better LEX/YACC book","To keep it simple, the book ""Introduction to Compiler Construction in UNIX"" introduces and explains LEX/YACC far better than this book. It uses a more realistic example and shows the error handling in more detail. This book is ok for a quick intro, but for a 'real"" user, refer to the book I mentioned above."
+19776,1,"Directions, please?","Has anyone else been unable to read the directions on the back of the bottle? At least on the container I have, the font is white on a yellow background and I can't make out the words. Should I apply and then leave it or rinse it out, or let it dry and vacuum it? No idea. I think it probably works, but I would like to use it as directed."
+19777,1,"Awesome film, lousy blu-ray","I should have known that when a blu-ray disc was selling for under $10 that something was wrong. Sure enough, the picture quality is pretty much the same as a regular DVD. The fact that it's selling for such a low price probably means that somebody is wising up and will soon issue a better quality blu-ray version. My advice is to pass up on this offer and instead wait for the definitive treatment."
+19778,2,"Love him, or hate him. It's still a great read.","Marilyn Manson is definitely one of the world's most interesting people. His book is no less. Whether your a hardcore fan or a born again Christian.. or both :). I'm willing to bet you will like this book. It starts from when he was a small boy up until the present. It lists his account of the many strange events that come with being and nihilist rock star in an indifferent and humorous tone. The story follows and references the ladder of sin from Dante's Divine Comedy, which is illustrated at the beginning. How ironic. I also think the quotes at the beginning of each chapter are priceless.If people are going to hate me, I want them to hate me for the right reasons. -Marilyn Manson"
+19779,2,Tremendous,"Jesus the One and Only is a tremendous Bible Study for women of all ages and of differing levels of Christian commitment. The study is pretty ""self-driven"" for the leader. Women are really appreciating the opportunity to study about Jesus."
+19780,1,Move away from the VCR!,"I see from other reviewers that I am not the only one who has noticed that Christina Dodd has watched ""Sabrina"" a few too many times. Unfortunately, unlike others, I do not see this novel as an ""homage"", but rather outright copying. I realize that there are few truly original plots left in the world, but the first half of this book borrows so heavily from the movie that I can almost see the stage directions in the margins of the script, excuse me, text. Since I was on vacation and didn't have another book with me, I slogged through to the end and ended up being mildly entertained. However, I have come to expect much better from Christina Dodd and hope that whatever publishing house deadline demands led to this heavy-handed plot borrowing do not present a similar problem in the future."
+19781,1,not worh it,"I tried the shea butter and it was hard to put on, is very greasy feeling, and did nothing but break my face out. I used it on my hands also, and nothing. No softness, just greasy feeling. Did not like at all. I have 2 cartons that I will throw away."
+19782,2,One Thousand White Women,"It was difficult to believe that this was fiction. The characters became very real and identifiable. The story, although initially unbelieveable subject matter became real and emotional. Great story with great character development."
+19783,2,Shear fright!,"Being a longtime horror fan, it surprises me that I just got around to watching this film the other night. It is alot better than I thought it would be. It is a genuinely creepy sequel to the original - I never knew how the two coincided, but upon finding out I was pleasently shocked.Recently, before I sat down to watch it, the film came up in two seperate conversations with two friends that do not know each other. They both metioned the nurse's demise by the shears. I thought, ""I need to see this film"", and looked for it used in a second hand store...Bingo!I personally think this is a good solid film. Great acting by George C. Scott(always like his acting), Brad Dourif is just insane! Vivica Lindfors is creepy, and don't forget the cameos: Samuel L.Jackson, Patrick Ewing and Fabio.Creepy, atmospheric, and a good audio trip, too. I highly recommend this thriller to all those who have not experienced it before. Heed not the naysayers!"
+19784,1,Not for big leakers,"I like that this is reusable, comfortable, affordable, and doesn't show through clothing. HOWEVER it shifts and (more importantly) it doesn't take much to soak through these. They need to be water proof on one side or something! but they're not. Hope to find something better, went back to disposable."
+19785,1,The pump did not work.,I couldn't get the bed inflated so it was a total waste of money. I thew it out. Don't waste your $.
+19786,1,Guilt By Association,"I think anyone reading this book will feel that they have been made to feel guilty. To me, more than trying to help with these feelings, the book does more to bring them to your attention and you begin to think - OMG - what am I doing with my kids and I should feel guilty about it !The book is an easy read and does not do much to answer any questions in my opinion. It may make you feel better however, because it says its ok to feel guilty. In the end - the book did little for me."
+19787,1,Replacement part only,Tried this product on various Bluetooth products and it works with none. DOES NOT work on motorola headphones as stated in last review. (which was the only reason I bought this adapter because it said it would) The package it came in was even made to be sold with the IOgear headphones. It looks as if the only reason to buy this was if you already had one and it broke. Again do not buy this if you do not have the IOgear bluetooth headphones that go with it!
+19788,1,For VB Test 70-176????????,"This is false advertizing. While the book is well-written, I recognize false advertizing when I see it, and this is blatant. I read many books on VB and have taken the test, so I know what is on it. This book is worthless as a screen door on a submarine, if you are reading with the goal of passing 70-176. In my opinion, you could give 50 people this book, let them study it for as long as they choose, then let them take the test, OPEN-BOOK, and unless they have had very EXTENSIVE work experience with VB (or perhaps studied from Syngress's or Hawhee's book), not one of them would pass. I found the title to be so deceptive that I sent a letter to the FTC regarding this blatant false advetizing. I sincerely wish more people would follow suit. We need more accountability from companies who publish these types of books."
+19789,1,Misleading from the start,"Based on the product description and the many comments, I was led to believe that this was the musical score of the musical. Upon receiving it, I made the discovery it was only the script and lyrics. A definite let-down. I'm not sure where the other reviews are basing their ""very good reduction"" etc etc comments, as it is most definitely NOT this product."
+19790,1,Do Not Purchase,"I purchased 4 of these one broke almost immediately, the others will only crack large nuts. Do not buy you will be disappointed."
+19791,1,My review of The Hallelujah Side,"I did not find the book to be a good read. References to the Assembly of God Church were too negative and demeaning. Nothing ""happy"" at all about the book!"
+19792,1,Not what I was expecting.,"I was really disappointed in this title.... It was written in 1890 and it's totally outdated. As an interesting browse in the library or book store, maybe. The stuff it talks about is simply impractical for most kids. Topics range from taxidermy at home, raising wild birds, to making blowguns. I was looking for things I could do with my young kids, and this didn't fit the bill for me."
+19793,2,eye opening,"Details about the true Obama No surprise as Obama is all about how to lie to everyone. This documentary just highlights the history behind the true Obama, not the b.s. that we had to read in the book."
+19794,1,Doesn't contain music from the trailer!,"Did you see the first Seabiscuit trailer? It started with a clip of FDR and contained other Depression era scenes of the unemployed, etc. Then it moved on to Seabiscuit....as the music swelled to a crescendo. This was a very good musical theme that I was looking forward to hearing in the movie and on the soundtrack...but's its not in the movie or on the soundtrack! (Does anyone know what the theme is and where it can be found?)"
+19795,1,would...,I would give this 0 stars if I could but amazon doesn't have it available. This is the WORST movie EVER. Stupid and retarted. This movie is NOT even worth a rent. Don't waste your time.
+19796,1,Sure to Fail,"Like a cheap Rolex you get off the streets of NYC, this falls into the same category. Except those cheap Rolex once made in Hong Kong at least lasted longer that this Apex made in China."
+19797,1,Misleading information.,"Product itself is fine. Delivery was fine also. The information states ""pack of 3"" giving the idea it's 1 kit x 3 boxes. It is really just 1 box with 3 items inside. By the time you pay the cost and shipping for 1 box you have twice the price you will find in stores."
+19798,2,"A great game, no matter what music you like.","I'm a Kiss fan. Actually, for Kiss fans, this game may be a little bit of a letdown. You don't ever get to ""see"" Kiss in the game. The characters which develop one piece of armor at a time are all first person, so the only Kiss visuals are the odd mirror and occasional album cover. Other than that, there are references galore (a battle in a club called Coventry, Cold Gin billboards, monsters called Strutters, etc.). This game does not have many references at all to the MacFarline comic - just a few screenshots of artwork from the books. The storyline is totally different - but VERY good. It's a macabre game, for sure, but it's a lot of fun if you like things like ""Doom.""Ignore all the folks who dismiss this game. It rocks!"
+19799,1,Worthless,This post-Zionist drivel will confirm the delusions of lefties and arabists who don't want to learn anything about the actual history.Study the author for insights into the masochistic omnipotence that plagues Jewish leftists and gives so much encouragement to those who want to destroy Israel.
+19800,2,Thanks for a great movie,This is a great movie and now I have been able to add it to my extensive DVD collection. Thanks
+19801,1,"If there was a ""NO"" star rating, this deserves it!","This still sounds like cr*p years later. A dollar spent on this is a dollar that you should have lit your last cigarrette with or used to wipe up cat barf with. Both would have better uses of the money rather than buy this piece of... Oh, and to think they've got a picture of the band when it was JOEY alone doing hack versions too! What a wh*re!"
+19802,1,it broke on the first day...,"When I first opened the package, I thought it was a little flimsy. I thought the zippers would be nice so I could tighten as I progress. When I tried it on, it was so large, that I had to put it on the smallest adjustment possible.Now, I'm not a small guy. I'm 6'1"" 220 lbs. with a little belly.The next day, I put it on and wore it to work. It felt great. I could feel the heat from the belt around my belly. After a couple hours, though, it started feeling loose again. I took it off and saw that it had split at the seams.As I said previously, the material was really flimsy. The neoprene is SO thin, there's really no support."
+19803,2,Curdled to death?,"In this one, the crimanal is involved in a sneaky plot, but you wouldn't jump off a silo in the middle of Febuary with your shirt off would you? Or would you? And you probaly wouldn't get cought in the same situation in a milk tank. To find the killer read the book."
+19804,2,Review of Brave Wolf and the Thunderbird: Tales of the Peop,"The message of hope conveyed by the sensitive ethnic illustrations make this work poignant not only to the members of the American Indian culture but also to readers of many ethnic backgrounds. While the colors and tones strike an immediate association with the unique southwestern colors of that landscape, the universal message delivers an identifiable sentiment to persons from many cultures. The symbolism depicted within the illustrations provoke thought even to the young reader and questioning of one's own culture's use of symbols. Parallels are then easier to make about similar symbols in a particular culture. Although unfamiliar with the Peoples Series, marketing of this kind of work to early readers can only enhance the integration and feelings of universality that are so sorely needed in our youth's literature."
+19805,1,don't buy it,"i felt like this dvd was thrown together purely to... row fans(or in my case 2Pac fans) into buying it. i've actually seen many of the interviews from VH1 behind the music. It also... me off that they said 2Pac was just in the rap game for money, i think they oversimplified him, and obviously didn't do any research on his personality. Personally i thought the real kicker was when this one guy kept referring to him as ""2Pack."" Basically you'd be a lot better off watching VH1's ""behind the music""--its a lot less expensive."
+19806,1,Power Wheels 12 Volt Charger,"I think I have spent over $250 on Toy chargers only to find out they do not work. I could have saved money by just purchasing a NOCO Genius charger. Note: You would need to do some modifications to use the Genius charger, but worth it."
+19807,1,Dogs wouldnt eat it,"I purchased several kinds of these treats from the same company in hopes that the dogs would like at least one. Unfortunately, they didn't like any of them and I wound up tossing out $35 worth of treats. As all dogs have their own favorite foods, I cant really blame the Zuke products. BUT, it would really be better if they offered a ""sampler"" of their products in very small amounts so that you could test them on your dogs without spending a lot of money, and then possibly tossing it all out."
+19808,1,Not my cup of tea.,FLat Crazy didn't strike me as either funny or with an interesting plot.I expect a good novel to get my attention at least by the end of the first chapter. Flat Crazy failed to do just that.
+19809,1,This went nowhere,"After reading so much about the book in the NYT, i was hoping it would pick up at some point, however it didn't. Even at the end when you think it may, it still falters... Sorry, spend your time reading something else."
+19810,1,Cannot believe it has lead content!,"I just couldn't believe it when my coworker pointed out that there is a fine print on the package states "" there might be lead content on the cord. Please wash hands after using."" Be real! We bought the headsets for our elementary school kids to use. Do you seriously think we can have something that has lead content around children or anyone????I think someone needs to remove this product off your shelves for good."
+19811,1,If you are sanding this mask is almost useless,"This mask, although capturing small particle if they are actually attempted to be sucked in through the mask would work great. However, with only one strap it does not form a tight seal, so dust is sucked in around the edges.I just finished trying it for an hour of sanding with 80 grit and although I was sure to make it fit as well as possible I'm still coughing up dust."
+19812,2,Grey Gardens-Best Seen but Good Listening,I bought this prior to a trip to New York in hopes that I might see the show. I liked the score but the power of the show lies in actually seeing the performances of Christine Ebersole and Mary Louse Wilson which I was then lucky enough to see on my trip.
+19813,1,Painful,I so wanted this to be good. In many ways this was as bad as the live action DND movie. Very sorry to have to say I was disappointed.
+19814,2,Carnival Party,Perfect for my carnival party. Used wooden cookie sticks to give them a vintage look. Make sure you purchase the right size sticks.
+19815,2,great sandwiches,"I never had a panini before and didn't know what to expect...boy are they good. I like the crispness of the outside of the sandwich and it does heat the filling up nicely without burning the outside. I only wish that I would have paid more attention to the dimensions. Actually, I thought the cooking plate would be bigger. Somewhat of a disappointment. Otherwise, it is easy to clean and does make good sandwiches."
+19816,2,Lots Of Plot Twists!,I found this book to be extremely interesting! It takes you inside the world of publishing and the writing process itself which I thought was an ingenious idea by itself but Sandra Brown toped even that with her book inside the book! Envy held my attention untill the very end with all it's plot twists and just trying to figure out who is who. This is the first Sandra Brown book that I have ever read but I will certianly be reading more of her work! 5 Stars!
+19817,1,pixma780 beware,never worked right out of the box.canon has terrible help by phone and online.ive had it for 2 years the scanner and outgoing fax has never worked.the printing does good job from Word thats about it.the color pics are not to bad.the color carts. don't last very long
+19818,1,Does not fit??,"I purchased this mattress pad for my son's full size bed. The package stated full size and I am completely sure of the bed size, but the pad is several inched too narrow. I read a few reviews stating that it slipped off at the corners through the night and although I have not had my son sleep on it yet, the stretchy corners do not feel like they will stay in place well (and, no, not just due to the poor fit). I really needed something ASAP as we bought my son a memory foam mattress because he has a condition called Ehler-Danlos and is also autistic so he tends to go through periods of bed wetting. This will hopefully work for now until I buy a better fitting one (not this brand again) and will save this as a back up. I would say it is about halfway between a twin and a full."
+19819,2,very good book,"This is by far the best book i have read. i read it once in sixth grade and then again in when i was a freshman. Enders Game is a very intriguing sci-fi which can cause a loss of real world time, and i recommend it to everyone who is mature enough to handle the sum what obscure language( things like the word fart eater)and the exciting story line."
+19820,1,Not so good,"I've had the toaster for about 1 year and last week the switch just stopped working and won't hold the toast down. I'm pretty disappointed with this product. From the beginning, this toaster toasted the bread more on one side than the other. You had to turn the toast around about half way through if you wanted it even."
+19821,1,A complete waste of time and money. No value.,"First the author needs to learn how to write. Second to know the historical facts, if interested to establish any credibility. The whole book is nothing but stories at a 6 year old level."
+19822,2,GREAT PRODUCT FOR THE PRICE,My wife has tried many expensive face creams. This procduct seems to be as good or better than creams costing much more.. She is very satisfied with product...
+19823,2,Lulz,"It's crude immature humor, fart jokes and stoner laughs. My kind of movie, I don't really like Family Guy all that much, but he even points fingers at himself in the movie when he says ""I do not sound like Peter Griffin"" so at least he's acknowledging the fact that he's milking it. Anyways, Mark Wahlberg and Mila Kunis are pretty funny together. People who don't know who don't know or appreciate Flash Gordon probably will hate this movie. People who don't curse or use curse words as adjectives or poetry will hate this movie. People who don't do drugs of any kind will probably hate this movie. Worth a watch, you probably shouldn't watch it if you take yourself really serious because this is a movie about a teddy bear that does drugs so if this concept bothers you then go away."
+19824,1,Creepy,Two people who should never get together.She likes yanking him around and he responds be becoming a stalker. This left me really cold
+19825,1,What the hell is this???,"Dear God, what the hell has music become?!? I never thought I would long for the boy bands of the late 90s, but just when you thought pop music couldn't get any worse, the music industry loves to surprise us with another talentless hack.Seriously, anyone rating this above 1 star (in which I feel is quite generous for this pile of puke) should learn to listen to the words. If that is impossible (possibly because in this case, it's too painful), Google them up. This girl must have had more alcohol in her than Bon Scott and John Bonham combined to write something so rediculous and terrible.Seeing how this pile was released a month ago, and is already out of the Top 50 (assuming it even charted that high), gives me hope that people still have some slight tastes in music... for now... :("
+19826,2,good read,"Good read, explains alot. Very helpful for the up and coming manager to understand psychology of inquiring minds and some of the borderline people we meet in business."
+19827,2,excellent and entertaining,"this product is a good value for money, very good english dubbing, complete collection and great screenplay, very good story and very funny."
+19828,1,"""Satin finish"" is terrible","The satin finish wore of after I wore it a few times. should of taken it off when I worked around the house. It got chipped up pretty bad, not very durable."
+19829,1,6 year old boy,Talk about a huge disappointment!! My son was so excited to get it from Santa that he had to put batteries in it immediately only to be disappointed that it did not work at all as shown on tv! It lasted all of 2 seconds and was put back in the box and returned to the store! My advice and my sons...don't buy it!
+19830,2,Cuba!,"New change of direction for MB: In their exploration of latino music they find Cuba and Cuba seems to like it! ""Cha Cha Cuba"" is a great track recorded in the same studio as the ""Buena Vista Social Club"" and sounds very acoustic and quite infectious. "" Sunny side up"" might just be one of the best pop songs ever written and ""Could you be"" is such a great lovesong that it is hard not o melt like butter. Great Album!"
+19831,1,DON'T BUY THIS CD,"I happen to be a huge George Fan, and I would NEVER buy this CD. This is George and Universal Music acting like ""The Who"", and releasing YET ANOTHER greatest hits package (I think they are up to a DOZEN) You could actually SAVE money, by buying the boxed set, and 50 Strait Hits (So you can get music within the past 10 years), instead of this CD and the Very Best Of Strait (1998-1993).Between this CD, 1998-1993, ""50 Strait Hits"", and ""The Platinum Collection"", GS has released FOUR greatest hits packages in LESS then a year, enough is enough. I am a GS completist, who has bought EVERY GS non-greatest hits package (I have the boxed set ""50 Strait Hits"", and ""Latest Greatest Straitest Hits"" (For ""The Best Day and ""Murder On Music Row"")), so I know this man's music. I also know when they want to rip fans off, and that is what they are trying to do. DON""T let them get away with it, and do not buy anymore ""New"" GS CDs until we get some BRAND NEW MUSIC."
+19832,2,"Government by the People, 2009 edition","The order arrived in timely fashion, actually 2 days earlier than promised. The text description said ""good"" and it was, possessing few markups and no torn pages."
+19833,1,Cute,"It was slow, but for some reason I really liked the movie. I thought the plot was a bit bland, but creative at that. I thought the storyu was cute, and always predictable, but you must expect that in watching love stories. The charisma was tight, and I liked it. I enjoy writing, and it is true that you write based on what others mean to you. Ahh...writer movies."
+19834,1,This Toshiba SD-2800 DVD Player [stinks],"This Toshiba SD-2800 DVD Player [stinks]. It quit working within one year of use. My old, 1st generation, 1997 Toshiba SD-3006 DVD Player works way better than this and is still working perfectly after six years. I think my SD-3006 is ready to outlast every new DVD players in the market. So no more new DVD players for me because the size is too small and too fragile to keep."
+19835,2,"great price, fast shipping","Book arrived quicker than expected. Described as ""like new"" although one corner of the book was crumpled a bit. Would recommend seller."
+19836,1,I have never been more disappointed,"I read all the reviews and thought that I had a good product. I ordered my size 34DD and it's doesn't even come close to supporting or, in fact, covering my breasts, much less staying in place. And it is so expensive to be that far off the mark."
+19837,1,Didn't like it at all!!,"I didn't even finish it, couldn't get any enthusiasm for it!! Finally gave up trying and admitted it wasn't for me!!"
+19838,2,Works great,I purchased three of the ceiling mounts for my garage. Installation was very easy and the quality of the product seems good. All three bikes lifted all they way to the ceiling with not problems and I've got my floor space back. A must have for an organized garage.
+19839,2,GREAT SOURCE FOR DOG,"Any dog fancier or dog owner, whether purebred or mixed breed will enjoy DOG FANCY. It is filled with useful and fun articles and each issue showcases two or three breeds of dog. Additionally, there are articles on veterinary medicine, training, travel, competitions and breeding. None of the articles are so overwhelmingly technical that the average dog owner can't understand them and apply them to their own pet. A great companion magazine to DOG FANCY is DOG WORLD which is more technical and focuses more on the breeder-trainer than just a well-adjusted pet owner."
+19840,2,Looks great in my kitchen,"I love this spice rack and my friends all think it's looks super great and professional. It's really kicked up my cooking as well having 2 of these racks on either side of my stove top. Makes me feel like a real gourmet chef. And I bought all my spices from a local spice market down in Pike Place, so once I threw down $50 on this hardware, everything else was next to nothing. I had no idea I could have such a high quality and customized spice selection for so cheap. Love these!"
+19841,2,Chicago blues to bend to....,"Exactly as titled! Backing tracks to play over... nicely done with a great booklet explaining suggestion as to which parts of the scales to use with each track and progressions through the track... You will learn from this book and even enjoy just playing to the songs if you already think you got your scales down pat...covers a variety of beats per minute and scales, great improvisation tool. Also includes the chords so you can eventually just team up with friends and play the whole song without the backing tracks.. I now own six from this series and they all are very well done and worth every penny."
+19842,1,too long to fit in my fixture,"These bulbs are taller than a 60W incandescent and therefore don't fit in my fixtures. (My fixtures are the sealed outdoor style with a heavy but small glass enclosure.) Nothing in the product spec told me the size of the bulbs, and the probably work fine in most lamps. I bought these because the Sylvania 29149 ""mini twist"" bulbs are more than twice the price. My purchasing the Sylvanias in the first place was pure luck; now I know I'm a captive audience."
+19843,2,It's the Benny Hill show!,"I have fond memories of this show from my childhood, so when I saw this box set I had to grab it. And - what can I say? The Benny Hill Show is funny stuff. His songs are clever, and who can forget the trademark chase sequences to the tune of ""Yakety Sax""?Some have said that Hill's humor is sexist - however, it is not demeaning to women at all. Nearly every time Benny himself, in the form of the ""dirty old man,"" randy doctor, et cetera, is the butt of the joke.The video quality is not the best, and in fact some episodes are in black and white. I'm sure this is because of the quality of the original masters. In any case, this set is quite watchable. Also, note that it includes the complete run of shows he did for Thames TV, which are the ones that were repackaged for overseas markets, but not the preceding BBC shows."
+19844,1,Worst Movie Eeeeeeeeevvvvvvvvvvvveeeeeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrrrr!,"Never buy this movie, or even see it, or rent it! This has to be the worst movie I've ever seen. The whole plot is sad, there are about 2 funny lines, and all the characters are weirdos. Mothers, if you are thinking of letting your kids watch this, don't unless they are at least over 8 or 9! I mean really, in the first 5 minutes I hated this movie, a tip for the producers, Don't start out with the saddest part of the movie. If there are any sad parts they're supposed to be at the end. But don't worry, there's more than one sad part. I was really looking forward to this movie because it looked funny and was made by Disney, WRONG! To think I almost bought this movie. Never buy IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!One last comment, dogs flying in planes shooting machine guns, WHAT is up with that!"
+19845,2,A interesting flip effect deck.,I have to admit that I really picked up this structure deck because I was curious about the Exodia looking guy on the cover (and no it isn't him or a variation of him) as others have said this deck's main focus is on the work of continuously using the flip effects of various monsters and monsters with low offense but high defense (but to go from offense to defense they supply you with Shield and Sword) while this deck is interesting right off the bat I can name a few flaws it has. This deck is weak against Nobleman of Cross Out and more importantly Light of Intervention. This really is a good structure deck if you want to use cards that not many others use.
+19846,2,A study of corruption,"Does money, great whacks of it, destroy every thing and every one it touches, even those who start with the best intentions ? The story centers around a new-comer to town, the mysterious Raffle Haw, his obvious riches and his desire to use his fortune for the good of the people. The provenance of the money is slowly revealed to the reader (you will have to smile at the science of that one !) as the consequences of Haw's philanthropy develop. Well written, nicely spaced story-line, believable caracters, this book has it all."
+19847,2,Summoner - best of PS2 launch RPGs.,"Even though Summoner is kind of weak in the looks department, it is definately one of the best RPGs ever. It has a great story line with lots of side quest. The summoning creatures are really cool and being able to controll them is even cooler. This game has alot of suprises and alot of treachery. How many other games come to mind when one of your own party members betrey your character and then the traitor has to go alone to rescue the hero? If your into RPGs and have a PS2 Summoner is a great game to start with. That is untill Final Fantasy X debutes on the new system."
+19848,2,Progressive Rock at its Finest,"For those of you old enough, there was a ""Supergroup"" called Cream in the mid-60's. Transatlantic carries on the tradition and dares to play LONG songs. The cover of Procol Harum's ""In Held Twas in I"" is amazing. (I also am a long time fan of the Procols.) The rest of this record will satisfy the need for great melody and top notch musicianship. This recording will open doors to Thr Flower Kings, Spock's Beard, Dream Theater as well as the Magna Carta recordings featuring Mike Pornoy, who is the best drummer since Neil Peart & Bill Bruford."
+19849,2,trippy fun,"I had to get this because it was another faithless side project featuring Rollo. A great dreamy, trippy cd. The more I listen to it the deeper it seems to be. The cd glides along until you come to The Oscar Song, which is worth a chuckle, not sure why it is in there, but it really is funny. Some really wonderful goves on this cd, and well worth the money. Oh, yeah, and another thing, be kind to animals, don't eat them.....go vegan. PEACE!"
+19850,1,The Pearls Advocate for Child Abuse,"This book is toxic and advocates for child abuse. It is disgusting that Amazon continues to sell this book and others like it. This is not ""training"" a child, but breaking them. Lydia Schatz died after her parents followed this guidelines in this book. The Pearls give detailed information on how to beat your child with flexible plumbing line. Sure, they don't advocate ""spanking"" they advocate using objects other than a hand to beat your child into submission.If there is a hell, I hope that Michael and Debi Pearl wind up suffering for all eternity while being beaten with a 1/4 flexible plumbing line, just like they describe in this book."
+19851,1,Run Away,Peggy O'Mara is an awful writer and an even worse advocate for attachment and natural parenting. This book is badly written and full of shallow platitudes that show only how out of touch O'Mara is with children and motherhood.
+19852,1,Don't waste your time,"I have been an NT server system administrator for some time now, and I can honestly say that I have been unable to solve a single NT problem with the aid of this book. Despite the massive amount of text, there is very little information here. There are windy, abstract explanations of the underlying technologies, but very little ""howto"" information. The examples given are unrealistic and the material is poorly organized and poorly cross-referenced. I was continually frustrated by the amount of time I spend combing this book for answers, only to find it had none. I simply gave my copy away."
+19853,2,Like it!,"I've got a Chevy Traverse and had a hard time finding a net that worked well. This one does just what I needed it to do. I just hook the 2 loops to my existing hooks and it holds up just fine. Although, it came with adhesive hooks they did not stick to the rough texture of the interior panels. I choose not to use the bolts that it came with because I did'nt want to alter the interior permanently. Overall it does the job and I take it down when not in use."
+19854,1,Not-so-hot book written by a cold-reader.,"The quality and accuracy of the inforamtion Mr. Edward claims to glean during the sample ""readings"" given in this book are unbelieveable...very unbelievable.The readings Mr. Edward describes in this book might be a little more credible if the readings he gives in his live appearences resembled them in any way. Alas, it's much harder to hide the inaccuracy of his ""cold-reading"" act on camera than it is on paper."
+19855,1,History by religionists instead of historians,"There should be warning labels on histories like this one that are not written by actual historians. This production is the product of embarrassingly bad research which doesn't even deserve to be called research, because it determines its conclusions before the research is done. This man will actually make up quotes from founding fathers that have no basis in fact. He actually claims that James Madison wanted the U.S. to be a Christian nation, among many other laughably inaccurate statements. It is a shame David Barton can find so many gullible customers who have not learned the most important educational lesson, the skill of critical thinking."
+19856,2,Great Gift!!,I was told about this author by my DAD who happened to have seen her on the Tavis Smiley show one late evening. He said that he was so enthralled with her to the point where he was considering buying her book to read more extensively about what she believed in. I went on-line to see the interview and decided to look for this book for my Dad. He is so happy with this book so I guess...it's a good book!!!
+19857,2,IT'S NOT THAT BAD!,"Maybe it was my frame of mind, but I found A SOUND OF THUNDER an entertaining time travel movie. I don't think the special fx were that horrible; they were appropriate to me. The premise of this type of time travel is interesting and the ultimate de-evolution kind of spooky. I like Edward Burns; he's not the world's greatest actor but he has a kind of ""commonality"" which makes him good for the sort of everyman hero he plays here. Ben Kingsley does well too as the money-mad man behind the time travel company, and Catherine McCormack's fine as the female lead. Time travel movies always have the potential to make errors and this one is no exception, but I found it enjoyable."
+19858,2,great,"i am a big stevie ray vaughan fan i like him alot. this cd is great i listend to it at least 30 times and not tired of it. and stevie this one is for you. i picked this song out for a friend when she wanted a song for us (me and her) so i picked pride and joy. and she loved it so she listens to him now i listen to it, family loves it. heck he is the BOMB."
+19859,1,poor sound quality even without radio station,"I got this from walmart (with a much higher price). The sound quality is not clear even if there are no stations at the frequency you choose. I'm sure it's below radio quality. We had a long trip of 1000 miles to Florida and had to constantly change frequency in order not to be bothered by stations. The ""international mode"" trick doesn't really work. I can't get below 88.1 even after I changed it to ""INTL"" as another reviewer said. Neither do my car's radio go below that frequency. We used it only for the first day of our trip. We can't stand the noise from the stations. returned it just after the trip.Now I wonder why would somebody buy this when he/she can get a aux cable for $1 or a cassette adapter for <$10?"
+19860,1,I WASTED MY MONEY DEFINITELY!!!,"I purchased this HDMI cord for my Sony Bravia 32inch 1080i Tv, and i was totally disappointed. 1. It made my TV show horribly(even in HD) 2. It kept jumping everything i would try and watch something and 3. I could usually watch my TV on 2 different outputs, with the HDMI cord in i could only view it on 1 channel. It was basically a big waste of time. I dont know how there are all these ""Good Reviews"" on here, because i missed how ""GREAT"" this HDMI cord works. Keep your money PLEAASE!"
+19861,2,Ethical Living,"This is a great introduction to ethical living. It is easy to read and very amusing. The information is simple and easy to understand (I think implementing it is the challenge!). If you've read other books on ethical living or magazines such as the ecologist, then this won't add anything new or shocking, but for those new to the subject I can't recommend it enough. Well worth a go.Feel free to check out my blog which can be found on my profile page."
+19862,1,This a romance novel thinly disguised as a thriller,"I bought this book expecting a thriller with good action. What i got was a romance novel centered around a search dog with an IQ that would rival Einstein (now I've used a dog or two in my books, but never to this extent). Anyway, if you want a romance novel with a lot of unrealistic action and improbable situations, this is the book for you."
+19863,1,Broken Promise,"I grew up in Detroit. I saw Bob Seger about a gajillion times with various bands. He rocked and we loved it, and we loved him.Sadly, this disc is proof that age and Hollywood takes away your edge. Bob has no edge left. Not even the collaboration with other artists here can give him an edge. It's gone. Bob needs viagra for his career. I'm unmotivated to even describe the listlessness of these...um...songs. That's because I just listened to it again before writing this. Woe is me.The last track is ""The Long Goodbye"". I'm giving this one a very short goodbye. My copy of this disc is on eBay now. I hope I can get half of what I paid."
+19864,1,Stay away,"What a useless machine this is: It is sinister how cheaply made this model is, with a motor too powerful for the flimsy plastic container it houses. Although it sucks plastic bags and book jackets like a storm, it fails to remove lint from the floor. While vacuuming, it heated up the room so much so, that on a hot day, I couldn't keep on working after only 5 minutes of it. But the worse was that the plug and outlet were so hot to the touch, that no doubt had I not came on time to unplug it, it might have started an electric fire. It went right back to where it came from leaving me the worse for shipping costs."
+19865,1,"Trashy Book, Impossible Story, Written by a Man","It was a fast read. And it's a good thing, because otherwise I would not have given it the time of day. I picked it up expecting a good story and good literature because so many people rave about how great they think this book is, but I was very dissapointed. First of all, it is written in a way that can potentially convince you it's a possible story. It is diary-style and mentions T.V shows and other books, just like a real diary would. But the story and characters are just too impossible. Yes, life can be tough, but an unrellenting assault of bad fortune, as happens to Dolores just doesn't happen in real life. And, I know people that have lived through being raped and dealing with parents deaths without all the emotional damage that afflicts Dolores. The symbolism in this novel was also a joke. Every time a whale was mentioned I actually laughed out loud, could you get any more cliche?"
+19866,2,Delightful book on obsessive birders,"This is a delightful account of three dedicated birders doing a Big Year: trying to see as many species as possible in a 365-day span. The author captures their enthusiam, humor, insight into birder culture, and knowledge. Loved every word of it and looking forward to seeing the video. Highly recommended, especially for birders."
+19867,2,bibycle Ulock,The Kryptonite Keeper 12 Standard Bicycle U-lock is wonderful and it has already proven to be a very good bicycle lock that I've been using it in the last few weeks.
+19868,1,Way too simple...,"This game is great fun for about three hours, until you realize that you have purchased every item available, bought every ship, and no longer have anything else to do except repeat the game. It seems more like a advertisement for carnival ships quickly thrown together into a video game. Don't get me wrong its fun for a little while, but just is way too simple and doesn't hold your attention once you've done everthing. Its the sort of game you play once then sell or put away for a year till you are interested in playing again."
+19869,2,"Wonderfully Sarcastic, tongue in cheek humor","Louden is an excellent songwriter. Most of the songs on this album are a dry, sarcastic humor (""I'd Rather be Lonely"") or witty ""Suddenly it's Christmas"". ""Westchester County"", which has a sound byte above, is a good example of his singing voice.A good example of his wit is ""Suddenly It's Christmas"" ... seven weeks before the day. When they say season's greetings, they mean just what they say ..."" Or ""A Fine Celtic Name"" where he sings about the various ways his name has been misspelled. ""The Acid Song"" is hilarious even if you have never taken acid (or especially if, I guess)."
+19870,1,DWW150US-SP,"I don't know how this saw will perform, since it came with several parts missing or broken, and no manual or instructions. To their credit, PlasPlugs responded promptly to a phone call and provided replacement parts. Perhaps when I get it assembled it will run ok, but I don't think Amazon can be trusted to provide you with a working model."
+19871,1,No bass level control!,"The speakers sound good, but there is no seperate control to turn the bass down. It is set way too high and I can't find any software controls to turn it down a bit. I have seen some pretty [inexpensive] 3-piece speakers, but they always have a control for the woofer, this set assumes that you want too much bass.I wouldn't recommend it."
+19872,2,Another good K Eagle read...,"Native American issues are the basis of the story, but great characerization, writing and insight make it a complete package."
+19873,1,Static!,You can barely hear the music over the static. Thought it might just be our car so we tried a couple friends' cars and it was the same. Total waste of money.
+19874,2,I wish my Dad had been rich,"This book confirms what many of us who grew up in a blue collar family have learned over a long period of years. This book gives young people a definite advantage of hearing the ""other side"" early in life, before college and while they are still optimistic. It also reinforces the American dream of becoming wealthy in just one generatiion.This book contains the type of information and attitude that I hope to instill in my grandchildren. It is packed with insight and presents it in an entertaining, easy to read format."
+19875,1,"Disappointing ""Gothic"" plot victimizes subjects, readers","By the time I finished this overly long (382 pages) mystery, I was thoroughly irritated with the authors for their unfortunate bait-and-switch approach. The Thurlos start off with a potentially interesting main character, FBI agent Navajo Ella Clah, in the naturally attractive Southwest setting. All too soon, however, the nasty, lurid plot repeatedly lurches unevenly between violent physical confrontations and Ella's immature interior monologues -- with timeouts for her brother's allegedly tradition medicine protective rituals. In addition, as another reviewer has noted, the dialogue too often is unnatural, even donwright unlikely. Even more unfortunate is the sensational presentation of the darker aspects of some traditional Navajo beliefs.Fortunately, mystery enthusiasts and fans of the Southwest can read one or all of Tony Hillerman's better crafted and much more culturally accurate novels! Happily he never victimizes nor insults the Dineh."
+19876,2,Excellent Message,It is a message most of us need to hear. As we find many people being segrated in many neighborhoods the walls that divide us cause confusion a fear. If we take the chance to go over that wall we are often surprised that the people from the other side are really just like us. This really hits home to me as I live on the well to do side of a large block wall that separates our neighborhood from a housing project.

+19880,2,Very Powerful Presentation by an experienced wall street options expert,This has been most helpful of the option videos I've seen since I was looking to learn specifically about spreads. It changed my whole way of thinking about options and now I am making much safer trades with a higher probability of success unlike before watching this one.
+19881,2,Holmes vs. Ripper yarn,"Cool story. Well acted by good cast. Doyle fans will enjoy this treatment of the obvious ""missing"" story from the Holmes Canon.As a standard-length movie, the characters aren't quite as well developed as the much longer Michael Caine Ripper mini-series done by the Beeb, but it's well worth a look."
+19882,1,Anything but a guide,"You get your first hint that this is a wrotten guidebook when you pick it up: it is incredibly heavy, easily over a pound. Who would want to lug that all over Turkey? As we discovered when we got there and opened it, no one. This is a poor coffee-table book masquerading as a guide book. Lots of pictures, with descriptions of places to visit that are only a little more informative than what you would find on the back of a postcard. No lists of hotels, places to eat, or anything like that. A waste of money for any traveller."
+19883,2,Product is good,"The Panasonic and Revlon razors that I purchased work fine and the family members that I purchased them for are happy with the products, but I was not given the discount that was offered by acquiring a Amazon credit card."

+19887,2,For dogs who can destroy anything,"I have a bull terrier.. you know, Pattons dog, the Target dog, Spudz McKenzie. He may be a medium size dog but he's all mouth. We can't give him tennis balls or baseballs- he will eat them- in a matter of hours. We have been getting him Kong toys for the last 2 years. The black toys are the most indestructable, but even those after a few months meet their demise in shreds and bits. Either way- this is the best out there- and my dog LOVES them. His favorite are the red octogon balls. It takes him about 3-4 months to destroy one and he carries it everywhere. Our vet says its the best toy out there for his teeth (it keeps them clean). Its made of a really dense rubber material so he doesn't swallow it, he spits it out (he actually ate all his other toys!) I recommend it."
+19888,2,good mix,"Good set of dvds, they bust out a couple of tunes we dont hear often. Cant you here me knockin and stray cat blues is nice, also cool to have a ""club"" show involved, though its a large crowd. The behind the scenes dvd where mick is working out with a personal trainer and the band seems nervous before the first show is interesting. Overall very good."
+19889,1,Works but useless in the car,"Ok, so the bluetooth headset works and is relatively comfortable, easy to use, very good battery life (for occasional car use).Cons: The listeners can't hear me when I am in the car, and the same on my end as well. No or Too much noise cancellation :) that the other person can barely hear me. Going 60-70mph you barely hear the other end w/ the full volume. Conference calling feature is funky, you have to conference through the headset and if you do it via the phone the conferenced folks can't hear you. I can also vouch for outside bluetooth range, it literally has to be less than 4 feet away.I've had a Jabra for a while and LOVED it. It stopped working after 3 years and I needed to upgrade (especially the battery life). Bottom-line, cheap headset, if you don't drive around w/ the bluetooth and sit in a very silent place GO for it! But my recommendation would be don't buy this product."
+19890,2,Worth Buying,Reading the Newbery Medal books is a hobby of mine. This reference helps me keep track of what I've read as well as remember what the story was about through its synopsis for each book.
+19891,2,Old School Product Still Works Great,"These plastic combs are getting hard to find in-stock at any of the big-box office supply stores. This GBC 3/8"" Dia. version works great with documents up to 25 pages with a front and back cover stock sheet (not sure how you'd get 55 sheets to work in one). The flexible plastic material GBC uses nowadays is 1/2 as thick as the old ones, but still works fine for turning out professional looking bound documents. Priced at $4/100, but there's a $7.50 shipping charge, so buy an extra box or two when you order and only get stuck with some smaller incremential shipping charge."

+19894,2,Full!,"This is a complete collection of Music Studious, Music Press, Manufacturers, and so on. I was impressed by this book when I first read it. I have been in the music business for a long time and I never saw such a complete collection of places to go. Amazing and very useful! I highly recommend it!"
+19895,2,Interesting Book: Old Version Though,"This book is so fascinating, especially for people who are interested in how sexual behavior can be shaped by one's culture. Keep in mind, though, that this is the older version of the book. The newer version is significantly different, with entirely new content and different language about key concepts."
+19896,2,"Great, but not ideal for beginners","I'd rather agree with M. Gunther than with the anonymous reader from USA, TN, (who uses a lot of exclamation marks). I started with Collier and Manley ""How to read Egyptian Hieroglyphs"". Their extremely well-written & didactic book was a great help to read Allen afterwards. Allen is great, complete, but a little bit too difficult for the absolute beginner. I would have liked this book to contain larger text fragments."
+19897,2,Review For 2000-2001 Combat Fleets of The World,"In general, it is a good book. It is a cheaper alternative to Jane's Fighting Ships, a good guide for warships but at $530 a copy very expensive. In addition to being a catalog of warships for each of the navies of the world, this book also talks about in depth about the weapons, electronic systems, and aircrafts that each of the world's navies uses. This is also an advantage that this book has over Jane's Fighting Ships since Jane's mostly focus on the warships and briefly on the weapons, electronic systems, and aircrafts for the world's navies.However, there is no color photographs in this book, only black and white photographs. Some of the description of the warships are a little too brief; some don't even have a schematic for them.Overall, I would recommend this book with the above mentioned reservation."
+19898,2,An education on personal anger,"I have been through group therapy and psychoanalysis. I have read thousands of pages on anxiety and depression. But, this book was a primer for me on anger.In the past, I was taught that anger was a negative side effect of other emotional problems. Therefore, I believed my anger would disappear if I 'fixed' myself in general.Now, I realize that anger is a healthy signal to balance specific life areas. My anger is natural and not a flaw in my character. The author helped me address my anger issues with myself, my husband, my children, and my mother-in-law!I am thrilled that my therapist recommended this book. I am busy recommending it to all my friends."
+19899,1,Critical Mistake,"I usually am very loyal to authors I've come to prize and buy their hardcover editions to show my support. I had a collection of Steve Martini's work right up until I bought Critical Mass.I know everyone is entitled to their opinions, but I also am entitled to not having to pay for someone mocking mine. Specifically by ridiculing a President and his wife whom I enthusiastically support.Dale Brown did the same thing some time in the past and I quit reading the offending book mid-page and tossed all of his work. Tom Clancy did a similar thing when saying that he felt persecuted for smoking (after all, it wasn't like he had AIDS!). Out that pile of paper went.I hope Martini feels better now that he's catharsis'ized his political opinions, and that the good feelings are enough to offset the minimal amount of discomfort my ceasing to further contribute to his income will cause.Plus, look at the book shelf space I freed up!"

Dont buy this piece of junk.....There wasn't any ""0"" stars or I would have rated it just that.. I dont have the packing slip since it was a gift. So I guess I have to toss it in the garbage... I will NEVER buy a Bionaire product ever !!!"
+19904,1,Maybe add some pictures to shorten the book!,"They say a picture is worth 1000 words. Maybe that is what the book needs then is pictures because this was a dreadfully long, verbose book. Want a great Stephen King book? Read Needful Things."

+19907,1,Literal Garbage,"I bought this camera approximately 2 months ago. After much use, I found this product to be literal garbage; as if someone had literally packaged a piece of garbage and sent it to me. The refresh rate on the LCD is horrible, not even worth using. Sometimes to get the LCD screen to work it is necessary to bang on the side of the camera. The viewfinder is blocked by an annoying green light and is off by a few millimeters. The supplied AA's last only about 15 to 20 mins. If you are unfortunate enough to buy this camera, get rechargeables. The picture quality is horrid at best, pictures turning out grainy and pixelated. Overall, buying a disposable 35mm is a better choice."
+19908,2,A revealing look into Jesus The Christ,"The author, Levi, does the whole Nostradamus thing in the middle of the night when all are quiet and asleep and there is no noise in the spiritual atmosphere. He looks into the 'Akashic Records' (as did Edgar Cayce) and there he learns the life story of Jesus the Christ.If you are familiar with Edgar Cayce, then maybe you may see some interest in this book. Reincarnation, alternative historical references, collective cosciousness; interesting at that, Look deeper to find the answers to questions no one likes unearthing."
+19909,2,My daughter loves it,"My 1 and 1/2 year old loves the songs on this toy. I have a concern about the durability, though. The button on the ear stopped working after using it for about 6 months, and she is not hard on her toys."
+19910,2,Inexpensive and Flexible,"Purchased for my daughter, who needed to demonstrate how she would market a service she is learning in tech school. Inexpensive, easy to use and worked beautifully. We designed the cards and printed a sheet for the course. She will use the rest when she obtains her certification, can add that to the cards and start using them to market her services. If you think the content of your business card may change--address, phone number, certification, etc,--this is a good choice rather than ordering 500 from a printing service."

+19913,1,Film came different from picture and type,I ordered 600 Platinum Film from Ace Photo and Digital. The picture showed Polaroid Platinum Film and this was written on the order form but when the film arrived it was just the plain 600 instant film. I would not have paid more money if I knew it was the regular film. It seems like false advertising. When I called the company they said that Polaroid stopped making that type of film and that it is basically the same film. I am really unsatisfied. I would have just gone to Target and bought it for the same film. They offered me a 10% refund. Don't be tricked if you think you're getting something different than the regular film.
+19914,1,The band that just won't go away,"This has to be the most boring album of all time. Right up there with Yield, Riot Act and No Code. I don't know what it's going to take for this band to finally call it quits. They have no talent and their lead singer just mumbles into the microphone -- you can't understand a word he's saying.If you're looking for a fresh sound, you can't go wrong with a band like Creed. They're talented and they have passion for their work -- not like these washed up has-beens. Pearl Jam has no real talent. Warning: this album is horrible. Listen to the song previews and you'll agree with me."
+19915,1,Son got too smart for it,"I bought this for my son to try and get him to sleep properly but he ended up finding ways to escape it. I tried this on him for three days but I would get up to find him slid out of it, giving me his mischievious grin. Luckily I was able to return it and get back the money I wasted. I think it's useless. Babies are too smart for this. They will find ways out of it."
+19916,2,Simply beautiful,"I got this CD on a whim, since I really liked the single ""Purify"". I loved the remix and the original is actually better.It was a cold day when I listened to this CD, and I have to say, it really warmed me up, bringing back the memories of summer, and such. The music sounding so happy and full of energy.Some of the instrumentation, gives some of the songs an exotic feel, like ""Sweet Alure"", otherwise, all the songs flow effortlessly and all the vocalists are amazing. Very soft, lilting vocals on all of the songs.The songs are dancy. But more of a goa feel to them.Highly recommended."
+19917,2,Beautiful shoes!!,"I bought these in the Chocolate Brown in the Size 7. I bought mine at $40 from Amazon so I'm not sure why the price went up.I also agree that these run a bit big. For me, they were about a 1/2 size too big. (I would've exchanged the size if I didn't have to pay return shipping). The heel is nice and solid. They are way pointy-er then I thought they would be. The foot bedding is slightly padded. It's only something I can wear for a few hours before my feet start hurting.Overall a very beautiful shoe."
+19918,1,Disappointed in streaming.,I was not able to watch it because it kept stopping so I turned it off. Too aggravating. It was the first time that has happened.
+19919,1,Disappointed,"I was very disappointed in this book. I have read books about the Kennedy family since I was a child, and I am familiar with a lot of the historical incidents. Some of the book was not historically accurate - I don't believe Jackie was at the funeral of Patrick, and the author skipped her job at Viking Press. Also, the writing was choppy, and the chapters seemed to end abruptly. In fact, the book ended with her death, and it seems as if he forgot to finish it. The book appeared to be written in a hurry, with very little continuity or accuracy. I was very disappointed that I wasted my time reading this book."
+19920,1,NOT GOOD,This is a very low buget movie. Didnt like the storyline or anything about it. Wished i hadnt bought it.
+19921,1,Ugh. His worst one yet.,"I somewhat enjoy Cohen's movies. His movies are kind of like watching a train wreck: don't really want to watch but can't look away. This one, however, wasn't even mildly entertaining to me. I was downright bored. My boyfriend, for whom we ordered it on Prime, didn't like it much either."
+19922,2,Bing,Excellent read. I thoroughly enjoy the Jesse stone novels. Saw the movies first so I can visualize the characters making it a more enjoyable read.
+19923,2,Fit nicely,I used the fitting guide and a measuring tape to get the right size. I like to wear them to school clinicals. They're also great on days I sit a lot.
+19924,1,Microsoft Office Home and Student 2007,I have been ripped off. The code will not enter and the software will be useless after so many log ons. I have no clue how to really get what I thought I paid for.P.T. Barnum was correct!This is the first time I have been burned thought purchases though Amazon. I was too trusting!Roger Howard
+19925,2,Fascination,"the grandchildren could not get enough of this microscope. They were super curious and kept finding little things to look at more closely It is well made, easy to use and a great value for the price"
+19926,1,No sleep.,"I didn't personally find this product to be of any assistance in alleviating my insomnia. I found Hyland's Calms Forte to be much more effective. Also, Hyland's Calms Forte is a tablet which is intended to be swallowed, the Hyland's Insomnia formula is to be dissolved under the tongue and has an awful bitter taste to it. I hope others have better results from this product, but I was dissapointed."
+19927,1,Does not work with Mac OS or Windows XP!,"This game will not work on a Mac with OS X 10.5 or above! It must run in classic mode. See Disney's support page:[...]Also this game will not work if you are running Window's XP and your system has more than 1 GB of memory (and what PC doesn't these days). If you do you will see this msg : Error: Dollhouse.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.Again see Disney's support page:[...]So, a house full of Mac's and PC's and this game will not run on any of them! Stay away from this out of date game!!!!!!"
+19928,1,Not the best country music dvd,"I was disappointed with this dvd.To me it was too much Jerry Lee Lewis and not enough of the other singers.(I am not knocking Jerry Lee,I enjoy his country hits)."
+19929,2,The perfect tote!,"I bought this tote, actually bought 6 of them. For a women's conference at church and gave them to all my family that came. It was perfect! All 6 girls LOVED them. The size was perfect, and the strap stayed on our shoulders, and it's true to color. we were able to carry our personal items, plus our Bibles, note books, and a small sweater. Other women also stopped to ask where I got the totes! When I am ready for a few more totes I will be purchasing this one again. I now use it for grocery runs, or carrying the toddlers and baby's things to and from Mimi's house... AWESOME!"
+19930,2,"A Glorious book. Lush, sensual.","From the opening pages of Mr Hijuelos's epic novel, one is on a long and delightfully rich journey. The love in these pages, the humantity, the poetry and humor, are abundant and utterly absorbing. A wonderful book by a skilled author."
+19931,1,Same 'Ol Troubles As Before...,"Okay, this is my third and last review on this product. The more I use Pinnacle Studio 9 Deluxe, the more I hate it! This program can't handle intermediate/advance video/audio editing at all and is becoming a complete waste of time and money. If you wanna transfer your old grandma home videos to DVD, this may be okay, but outside of that, don't even waste your time or money!"
+19932,2,THE SHORT FOREVER,This is one of the BEST Stone Barrington novels. There are lots of turns and twists and it is a real page burner.
+19933,1,One book too many,"Number two of a trilogy is usually weaker than number one, but often the third installment reaches new heights. Not this time, the author should have stopped at two.The time travel theory, invented in ""The Whispers"" and expanded in ""Faces of Infinity"", is scrambled to poetic incoherence in ""Paradox Gate"". The pseudo-science of the first two books is no longer consistent, so I revoke poetic license. To his credit, the author makes it clear that none of the characters fully understand the revised theory, though that doesn't stop them from explaining it to each other in great detail.The plot is nonsensical. The characters, never a strong point in this series, have deteriorated further - primarily because the author has finally made an attempt to flesh them out.Nevertheless, I recommend this book to anyone who enjoyed the first two. It continues a narrative that remains intriguing and presents additional amusing anomolies."
+19934,1,"Not enough volume, not bright enough.","This product would be fine for a small to medium size one room office. We purchased it for a larger room with a lot of background noise (commercial kitchen). It is neither loud enough, nor bright enough. This is for a small application only. Very disappointed."
+19935,1,Really?,"So, who wrote this, because it had to be a man. Of course, women could never survive without a man, could they? And wouldn't they just do the silliest possible things imaginable? Treat each other terribly? Or run around with flowers in their hair and dance all day? Not one of them would be able to grow their own food, and for sure - they would absolutely drug and abuse any other women out of what? jealousy? Oh please. The only good part of this is the end where the only man alive after the rain is GAY!This is just awful, not campy. It belittles women in every possible way. Save your money."
+19936,2,Works Great with Uwatec Scubapro Galileo,I bought this to see if it would work with my Uwatec Galileo Luna dive computer. Works great so far! Way cheaper than the Uwatec branded one.
+19937,1,Good--but not reliable,"The first one that I received did not work at all. Just plain dead out of the box. No big problem, I got a replacement from Amazon and returned the non-functional one.The replacement functioned well. Good sound quality, good signal strength, easy to tune. But, after 7 months of use, the second one died as well. It'll work for 10-20 seconds and then stop working (lights go out, stops transmitting; have to unplug it, let it sit, and then plug it back in to get it to come back on for another 10-20 seconds)."
+19938,2,Healing Yourself with the Healer of Harrow Point,"Peter Walpole uses the imagery of a boy on the verge of manhood to mirror for us all the times of transition in our lives. Emma is Thomas' spiritual guru through his journey. Ultimately, the lessons he learns about himself transcend the simple physical healing that Emma strives to teach him. The book is beautifully written and captures the fire within all of us. Although it is targeted for ""young adults"" I think it will speak more directly to those of us who have already passed through various stages of our lives. This is a book to read with your teenage children to use as a springboard into a number of discussions about growing up and relationships."
+19939,1,Pay to Beta Test,"I had high hopes for this game. It is a good idea with a very bad implementation. It is one of the buggiest shooters I've ever seen. You are basically paying to beta test this game. Even after the official retail patch, it still crashes and bullets never connect with opponents. If the store I bought it from would take the return of this game, I would return it. Don't be stuck like me. Skip it."
+19940,2,"Worth getting,,,,,","This is definitly the upgrade from the previous Abba-Esque Cd that Erasure did,,,the mixes are pretty good,,except SOS,,, I liked the original one better,,,,,"
+19941,2,Who would of thought!,Nora does it again she manages to captivate the reader. I'm sure everyone thought the book was stuck to my glasses. If you like 'who done its' pick this one.
+19942,1,A limited value catalogue,"In an annual catalogue of watches I would expectt to see all the models produced in the world in that year, either gents or ladies, expensive ones or poor man watch.But here you won't definitely find them.Here you will see ONLY expensive European gents watches. And not even the Grand Seiko. Is it a watch catalogue? No, it is only pure advertising. The worse one."
+19943,2,Mr David likes rap??????????????? Please don't be absurd!!!!,"A pianist who wants to be a rupr-doctor? JAjajaja. Some people have no clue at all about what clasical music is made for. And what about second o third rated pianists? Please if you don't know what to say you better shut up. This Cd is unique and magnifique!!! Martha was so young and fresh in this Cd and she goes her own way, and that is what made her famous all over the world. So trust me, millions around the globe can't be wrong. This Cd really does worth every dollar you spend!!!!!"
+19944,2,Best-Tasting Gluten-Free Bread Mix,"This is one of the easiest bread mixes to use. You should really have a Zojirushi Bread Mixer for the best results as gluten-free mixes are heavier then regular mixes and require two beaters, which the Zojirushi mixers have. The finished product makes delicious sandwiches, both plain and toasted."
+19945,1,Junk,I never could make it work. I just threw it in the trash can. The tubes of grease that came with the gun was good. This was a lot of money spent for tubes of grease!
+19946,1,Poor design,The earphones are poorly designed. They keep on falling out of my ear. I STRONGLY SUUGEST THAT BUYERS STAY AWAY.
+19947,1,Music For The Culturally Retarded,"Can't the rap world do better than this? I realize this music is supposed to be ""from the streets,"" but can't you guys rise above these insipid lyrics? Sure people will pay money for this garbage but does that mean rappers have to pander? The record industry complains that file sharing is killing the industry? When the industry puts out swill like this, then I say more power to Kazaa."
+19948,2,Lopez Fans Have To Own This DVD...,"If you watched George Lopez since his early days in L.A. then the comedy on this CD is nothing new. But it's his best work clumped together for one night on the grand stage. Remember this was his ""White Whale"", and being there was the greatest moment in his life. The show comentary and response show just that. It's funny, lot's a laughs, and compliments the BOOK. Read the book first, watch the show, and you can't help but laugh at a ""Mexican Boy"" from San Fernando!"
+19949,2,Always Good,What a wonderfully funny and nearly ageless movie! I have had the DVD for 7 years and have returned to it time and time again. Its still fresh and lively. Robert Altman outdid himself. Bravo!
+19950,1,DOES NOT FIT 2007+ WRANGLER,This is a simple product and probably works fine for whatever models it was designed for but it DOES NOT work for the 2007+ Wrangler. I was able to make it work for the rear sound bar speakers with modifications but they are worthless in the front. If you have a JK look for another solution and don't buy these.
+19951,2,Just What I Needed...,"I needed to section off my kitchen from the living room so I could monitor my puppy better and this gate was one of my best investments.The pressure mounts don't scuff the walls, and it's so incredibly convenient to be able to walk through it.An added bonus, the kids know to stay out of the kitchen too, say if we're cooking.I haven't had anything break on it and my 45lb. dog hasn't knocked it over or jumped over it yet. The only thing I will complain about is that its a little bit of a task to tighten the mounts. Other than that though, great product!"
+19952,1,Very Dissapointed,I purchased this movie for my son(6yrs) and the add stated that the DVD was in excellant shape. We played it once and noticed some sound problems but when went to play this again the sound was horrible. I sent an email to Amazon and received no response. I would like to get a replacement but I do not know how to go about this as I no longer have any information on the person who actually sent it to me.For the most part I have had good luck buying from Amazon but this was a terrible purchase and we are very dissapointed.
+19953,2,Perfect leave in treatment!,"I have naturally frizzy - I mean curly hair. An amount of this Coconut Oil treatment the size of a quarter smooths and seals my hair without the greasy look that frizz-ease or other silicone treatments leave. It's worth every penny to have frizz free curls this summer. I've used it as a ""hot oil"" type treatment, it's ok for that, but as a leave in it yields great results!"
+19954,2,".....""Don't Let It Be Forgot.....That Once There Was A Spot.......""","For me, to finally hear this in all of it's digital splendor,is both an absolute joy, and emotional pain to hear. The joy, obvious. To listen to Julie Andrews soar, brought painfully home, that her voice has been ruined,and how much that must be emotionally wrenching for her, today."
+19955,2,LOVED it!,"These guys are hilarious! I absolutely LOVE the first disc, which is mostly written by Brent and Jermaine, but I didn't click as much with the second one, possibly because it was written by some other people. Anyway, it's worth the buy and it's definitely worth the laughs!"
+19956,1,Really disappointed,"I realize you shouldn't expect much from a video game remake, but good gravy.The dialogue is flat and rarely funny or interesting. The plot is completely incomphrehensible. The villian's motivation makes no sense. I don't want to blow the ending for you. But a key character who is likable from the beginning has a two-second morality meltdown and becomes a one-dimensional baddie for no other reason than Lara has commitment issues.If you're thinking of buying this one, just go out and get another version of the video game. You'll be happier."
+19957,1,Horrible setup and terrible DHCP performance,"Unlike many routers this one doesn't allow you to navigate to 192.168.1.1 and punch in your important info. Instead, this router wants you to navigate to routerlogin.[net] or somesuch nonsense. But that's not what drove me bonkers. The insurmountably erratic wireless performance is what drove me bonkers. I tried for a couple of days and returned it. I had this same problem with another of these routers but wrote the badness off to microwave towers in the area - that's not the problem. It's just a crummy router. I went with the Linksys which set up in 5 minutes and has worked flawlessly."
+19958,2,Warm and romantic,"Every track is wonderful. Lush, warm, romantic. Streisand has never sounded better."
+19959,1,this doll stinks and you know it.,I think bratz are better then my scene. who is gon' pay $49.99 for this? . I think this doll looks really gross mattel does it agian!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.
+19960,1,Polemic waste of time,"There are several people who have done a good job of critiquing Christianity. This guy, Brian Fleming, is not one of them. He's so polemic, one-sided, and childish.The part where he was in the chapel and he said ""I blaspheme the Holy Spirit"", that was the dumbest part of the movie.The one bright spot was when he showed footage with Alan Dundes, the author ofHoly Writ as Oral Lit: The Bible as Folklore.Professor Dundes did a much better job of critiquing Christianity than Brian Fleming. I recommend his book, as well asDeconstructing Jesusby Robert M. Price, andMisquoting Jesus: The Story Behind Who Changed the Bible and Why (Plus)by Bart Ehrman. Professor Ehrman has done several outstanding audio programs for The Teaching Company."
+19961,2,Enchanting,I found this CD to be one of the best New Age sounds I have ever heard. The music is relaxing and useful in meditation. This is my first CD by Troika but because of it I am buying the rest of them.
+19962,2,Fantastic!!!!,"You know how some workout videos get old after awhile??? Not this one! When I got the video I was about 13-14 weeks and was still going to my regular yoga classes at our gym. However, after doing the DVD just one time I was hooked and have not returned to class! I feel like I am getting an excellent strength and cardio workout with a focus on movements that are safe for me and our baby. I look forward to doing it every time and on some days have actually chosen it over other planned workouts!"
+19963,2,Love It!,This product works great! It is powerful and I love that it is waterproof. It makes my morning showers delightful and you can't hear it at all! I would definately recomend it.
+19964,2,"Excellent ""Oriental"" Tale","This is marvellous tale of love and war. Although its portrayal of Eastern society is extremely idealized, it contains a wealth of anthropological detail about a part of the world which is largely unknown in the West."
+19965,1,This is ridiculous,"This album will soon be on sale for $1 in bins at truck stops across the county, so save your money. The rapping in really bad. It sounds like an after school special. There is no flow. She should have gone to ""Ice-T's Rap School."" Her voice is just plain annoying.Stick with the posing, sister."
+19966,1,Not worth it,Very loud and did not chop or crush the ice. Jumped all over the counter when on. Would not buy a small one again.
+19967,1,He can't be associated with the Beasties?,"As I put this CD in my player I started to groove to the first track ""Push the Button"". After that opening track I was punished with about 20 more boring unoriginal tracks. If he is going to put a sticker on his CD saying he is a keyboardist for the Beastie Boys he better bring a little more funk and a lot less, um well,... boring stuff He is not a funky monkey!"
+19968,2,"Hi-Lift Jack HL-605 60""","I purchased two of the HL-605 jacks. My only comment is WOW......these things are very well made and well worth the money. I researched and shopped around for farm jacks. I'm the type of person who will not buy ""junk"" tools. The Hi-Lift brand was the only one that seemed to meet my standards/demands. I'm very glad I made this decision, as said before, these jacks work excellent plus are very well made......all cast, heavy, strong, made like products from years ago......no doubt these will last several lifetimes! Also, great price and free shipping. Spend a few extra bucks, you will not be disappointed! In addition, the 60"" length is perfect."
+19969,1,Do not buy this book...,This book is nothing but a hoax...Instead just read the online manual...Your knowledge level of Flash will be the same even after you read this book...Wish to get my money back...
+19970,2,The Sweetest Game of the Century,"SOCOM II is the best game that i have ever played. The graphics are the best that i have ever seen in a fighting game like this one. The online mode is 10x better than the original SOCOM and it has more maps. You can communicate with your team better, and it is more exciting. The only reason why you would stop playing SOCOM II is unless it is time to eat or go to the bathroom."
+19971,2,"Funny, witty, and full of surprises!","I enjoy good movies so I found this book to be the perfect summer read. It's funny, and witty, and full of surprises about Nick and his Hollywood associates. I had no idea the actor was so dedicated -- and so much fun to be around!"
+19972,1,Not Worth It,"Virtually unusable outdoors, can't see menu in daylight - don't consider this product no matter how cheap."
+19973,1,What We Keep,"Women friends raved about Elizabeth Berg and this is the first Elizabeth Berg book for me and the last. I thought writing style was very good, however, the story simplistic and shallow. I cannot believe that women readers find this risky or revealing dynamics between mothers and daughters of the 50s."
+19974,2,Cuisinart Supreme Grind Automatic Burr Mill,"The Cuisinart does a good job, but the static between the plastic container and the grinds is frustrating and can get messy. I would recommend looking at a grinder with a glass container if you can afford it. Otherwise, this is a great product."
+19975,1,lemon,lemon and poor customer service broke after two uses and wont honor productBlack & Decker MM875 Lawn Hog 12 Amp 19-Inch Electric Mulching Mower with Rear Bag
+19976,2,Absolutely Hilarious!,"Ok well this is one dvd that everyone should have. Scary Movie is, without a doubt, the funniest DVD of the year. It combines humor from many movies and mixes them together. There was only one scene which i did not find that funny and that was when Buffy (shannon Elizibeth) dies. Its kind of stupid how they killed her but o well. It has some great cut scenes that are funny, especially the clip with shorty and his ""movie"". If you have seen the cut scenes you know what im talking about. overall a great movie. My second favorite dvd behind GLADIATOR."
+19977,1,insipid,it is incomprehensible that this first truely awful book developed into a funny series. i have read everyother book in this series except this one prior to reading it now. i never read it because of the reviews. the past reviewers were correct. this is bad. i had to force myself to read the first 50 or so pages. then it got better but ended up being just as bad towards the end as the first 50 pages. it is quite unbelievable that a 200 year old vamp could still be as incompetent as a 5 year old child. ugh. you do not need to read this book to appreciate the other books in the series.
+19978,1,Isn't Linksys a quality brand?,"Got my WRT54G v7 a month ago to replace an older model. Been having nothing but trouble since, with my connection dropping as many as ten times a day for no apparent reasons, and I have to physically reset the router because of DNS problems. Firmware is up to date and the router's properly configured. C'mon, my PC is just about six meters from the router!A lot of people are having the same problem, apparently, and now I really wish I had bothered reading up some reviews before investing in this piece of junk. Shucks, it hardly looks great even as an expensive paperweight...."
+19979,2,great for VHS,VHS tape exactly as advertised & in perfect condition. I wish it were available on DVD. This is a great story. I would love to see someone remake this with current animation.
+19980,1,This production shows a misunderstanding of opera,"Until I saw this production of Le Nozze di Figaro, I was a fan of Ponnelle. However the separation of acting and singing in this production is totally at odds with my understanding of the art form of opera. I cannot believe that any of the great cast felt comfortable with this arrangement. Imagine a movie of a well-beloved symphony where the musicians without their instruments expressed in their gestures and postures the mood of the music that was playing somewhere in the background - comical!!!"
+19981,2,Simmons Beautyrest latex pillows,"Well we read all of the reviews and decided to take a gamble that the pillows would be what we wanted. They are GREAT, good ""push-back"" and neck support. They aren't MEMORY FOAM, so if that's what you are after, forget these. But if you are looking for a firm latex foam pillow, you should be happy with this pillow! Couldn't be happier with them!"
+19982,2,Nillson sings Newman? Watch before you buy!,"OK... this has BUNCHES more songs than the original. Buy this, not the one that has the ""car"" photo on the cover, although that was the original LP."
+19983,2,A great supplement to any travel book like Lonely planet!,"I loved this book, it was a great travel book. This book gave me insights into the culture and beliefs of Nepal, not just places to stay or to eat like most travel books. All of the stories were unique and made me really excited to hop on a plane and travel there. With this book I know what to expect once I get there and know enough not to offend their culture as an American.I recommend using this to supplement a Fromer's or Lonely planet travel book."
+19984,1,Disturbing and Disgusting Dribble,"Why Disney Film Studios have decided to put their support behind this sacraligous and disturbing novel suprises me. Not even Walt Disney, who lets face it, is not commonly regarded as one of the stalwarts of mental health would treat Cordy's novel as ""normal"".This book is not entertaining.This book is not clever.This book is not good.This book is disturbing.This book is religously corrupt.This book is not the type that should be encouraged, supported, or turned into a feature film.Do not waste your money on this book, especially if you have or at any time have at any semblance of religous faith. If you possess any compassion or understanding of Christian ideals, again, do not purchase this book. You will regret it."
+19985,1,Avoid like the Bubonic Plague!,"There are only 3 reasons that you are reading this:1. You followed the link from Readmag.com's entertainment news thread.2. You are feeling nostalgic for your youthful ""3rd wave"" ignorance.3. You still a complete moron & enjoy this kind of dreck.Whichever category you fit into, do NOT pay anything at all for this cd. I can't believe someone is trying to sell it for $23!"
+19986,2,Liaden Lover,"I love this series, and am looking for their short stories. According to the publisher, this is what is included in the book, I am ordering it but haven't read it yet, this is just to let other people know what is included:One dozen short stories, including all stories from the first 5 Liaden Universe chapbooks!Includes:Where the Goddess SendsA Choice of WeaponsMoonphaseTo Cut An EdgeKing of the CatsA Spell for the LostA Day at the RacesBreath's DutyThe Wine of MemoryCertain SymmetryPilot of KorvalBalance of Trade"
+19987,2,For beginners,"I'm, fifty years old and have only dabbled in fitness over my lifetime. I was looking for some variety to get me back into some much needed physical activity. This workout is by no means easy. I was a member of the Y 25 or so years ago and attended some of their exercise classes. This pilates DVD is exactly some of the same exercises I did in that class, except we didn't use bands then. I would say for someone who has lived a sedintary life, the workout with the band would be challenging but not impossible. These kinds of workouts can really be followed along at your own pace. The stretch feels great!!"
+19988,1,Too Bad - Poor Performance/Too Delicate,"These sounded like a wonderful solution to 'sweating' glasses, and also to keeping drinks cold longer. Regrettably, they were just too delicate for words. We always babied them, having read some of the negative reviews. We gently hand-washed and hand-dried with fine cotton dishtowels, and always put ice in gently, by hand, cube by cube (never held one under the fridge's ice dispenser). Now, two have broken on the INSIDE, after we had been sitting with them awhile -- which could have been dangerous! Had we not noticed, one of us could have swallowed some broken glass. Very disappointed."
+19989,1,Elevator Music to Hell!!!!!!!!!,"Terrible. This album is terrible. All tracks the same. Terrible take off on the song, the dance. Wow, it's so bad, don't know where to begin. Awful. Simply disgusting, this musician should play different music with his talent. Awful. Terrible. Disgusting. No musician in the world would recomend this album for anything. Disgusting. Little tinkerbell chimes in background of songs. So ridiculously bad it's not even funny. If you buy this. You just wasted some Money. needlessly. I bought it. Terrible mistake. Disgusting. might have made me laugh from stupidity if it was a little better. Terrible. Awful. Disgraceful.WOWWHAT A STUPID CD"
+19990,2,The standard of Confederate Naval history of the Civil War,W.N.Still's book is rightfully called the standard of Confederate Naval history. Accurate and objective accounts of the major and most minor engagements with Union forces are combined with extensive background information. The newer editions have an enlarged section of historical drawings and sketches. Mr. Still explains the political background that gave rise to the Confederate Ironclad program and his research is impeccable. An exhaustive literature listing rounds out this excellent book. While strictly scientific the inclusion of historical eyewitness accounts and the always fluent style make this book a joy to read. This book is a great starting point and goes very well with Maurice Melton's more subjective and somewhat dated book on the same subject. Also very interesting to compare with Ivan Musicant's 'Divided Waters'.A must for every Civil War student!
+19991,1,A very ordinary effort indeed!,"This is one of the greatest wastes of printers ink that I have had the misfortune to read in some time. Regrettably, the content is fractured, the writing style poor and the level of information, average at best. If you want a trip through the authors tortured ramblings on politics with some side commentary on Glocks, buy it. Otherwise, don't waste your time. It's a fine example of a little knowledge being a dangerous thing. Buy Kaswers book, it may be slightly dated (ie new models have appeared since the time of writing), but at least you'll learn about Glocks."
+19992,1,Drive failed within three months; warranty support was poor,"This high-capacity, high on-drive memory drive died catastrophically without warning after only three months of use. I had backed up the most critical data, but discovered that using any data recovery service completely voids the Western Digital warranty.Usually, hard drives have on-board diagnostics which give you at least a little warning of a physical problem, but this drive's diagnostics did not warn me. Also, frequently you have some phsical warning of impending failure--odd performance, or lost files. However, sudden crashes like mine are not unheard of, just not right away in newer drives.WD is a premier manufacturer, but my experience has been poor."
+19993,1,Good Heater Bad Smell,Lasko ceramic heaters work well and provide sufficient heat. The only problem I have with them is the smell. Upon turning the unit on the smell was so bad I had to remove it outside. It smelled up the whole house. This smellwill eventually go away when the ceramic heat tubes finally burn off all the oils and the new wares off. Runningit outside for 24 hours really did not help as far as heating the house. Probably would not buy another.
+19994,2,This Game Rocks For Kids,This Game is sssssoooooooo cool and great for kids of all ages plus it has special bonus's for linking up your gameboy advance to your game cube! I love playing it! It's just like the real world only the people are animals!(nott literally!)
+19995,1,Slasher films shouldn't be considered horror,"Scream 2 is an example of how bad the slasher genre is. It lacks the creativity of other much, much better horror films such as The Evil Dead trilogy and George Romero films. Scream 2 isn't really bad at first, but the main problem is the fact that the killer's identity isn't very surprising. But then the acting gets very bad, and all the likeable characters are killed off. This movie has a lot of jump scenes (I mean a lot) but it doesn't make the movie scary, just annoying."
+19996,2,serenity,Excellent Halperin CD. You can get lost in the waves. Great for relaxing or just chilling while you do other things.
+19997,1,The agenda,"The screenplay in this movie was written to advance a commentary which was not part of the book. I don't require some screenwriter's social commentary in a Jane Austen story, thank you. The value of Austen's insights lay in the observations made in small circles of society and their easy translation to the wider world. In and of themselves, Jane Austen's insights are worthwhile. The screenwriter's foray into sensationalized slavery was ridiculous."
+19998,2,One of the Funk Mob's 80's finest,"All the tracks on this album are great, but tracks two through six are classics. They have all the musicianship and vocal prowess you'd hope for on a slamming P-Funk album. The first and last tracks are full of Clinton's rapping wit, but nothing can compete with the whole outfit digging in and laying down the funk like they do on most of the album."
+19999,1,FOOLISH INDEED!!!!!!,"I don't like this album at all. I won't say that she can't sing, but I will say that her voice is not what they are making it out to be. In fact, I don't see anything special about it. I love a variety of music, and Ashanti could at least try to come with something different to appeal to fans. I just wanna know for once if she could have an album or song that DOESN'T go: BABY, BABY, BABY, AWW BABY, AWW BABY, OHH BABY, OHH BABY. Ashanti will say baby 80 million times, and write a whole song and chorus about it. I mean really, that's all she says throughout this album, and the other one too. Those seem to be her favorite lyrics, and she's getting paid to sing that, and I could sing that just as good, or probably better. So, it is my opinion that this album really deserves no stars, and I would give it just that if it were possible."
